Yoga Nidra is a deeply healing, transformational practice with profound benefits that range from the physiological to the spiritual. A long, guided relaxation (similar to savasana), it allows the body and mind to access pure rest, boosting health and sense of wellness. On a deeper level, it is a practice in releasing problem solving, daily stresses and fear patterns, and finding peace in the truest sense of self. Nidra welcomes us home to effortless bliss and loving freedom.
