Yoga Nidra, otherwise referred to as Yogic Sleep / Guided Meditation / NSDR (Non-Sleep Deep Rest), is a powerful technique/practice in which you learn to relax consciously.
It's an ancient practice and its benefits are recognized by modern science/medicine;
a systematic method of inducing deep physical, mental, and emotional relaxation, which results in a variety of physical and neurological benefits.
During the practice, consciousness functions at a deeper level of awareness, we enter a state of "dynamic sleep", and we may experience deep relaxation, which is sometimes more replenishing than a full night of sleep.
The BENEFITS of YOGA NIDRA include: IMPROVED: Falling Asleep, Neuroplasticity, Creativity, Focus, Peace DECREASED: Stress, Anxiety, Psychosomatic Conditions
INSTRUCTIONS: BEFORE the practice, consider an INTENTION, a Sankalpa, which is a resolution, a determination to become something or do something (meaningful to you) in your life.
This can be something you desire to happen immediately or within the next year.
Turn off phones and computer sounds and notifications so you will NOT be interrupted.
DURING the practice, you lie down, in a quiet private location, (not in your bed), and get comfortable so you can remain still (and awake) for about 45 - 50 minutes.
The body won't relax fully if it's cold so you may like a blanket over your body and socks on your feet to keep you warm.
Place a pillow under your head because the head can feel heavy after a period of time.
Your low back may benefit from a rolled up blanket or pillow evenly under both knees.
Place a soft cloth over your eyes to block out light.
A facilitator guides you through the practice by directing your awareness to your breath, through your body, and into various visualizations.
Yoga Nidra can be a profound experience, after which you feel relaxed and refreshed, able to focus and learn. You may also realize a positive shift in your psyche / mindset.
