Deep Healing Relaxation: Yoga Nidra

Yoga Nidra (Yogic Sleep) involves a series of systematic and step by step techniques to bring about a profound sense of physical, mental, and emotional release and relaxation.

The health benefits of Yoga Nidra have been scientifically proven. Yoga Nidra is being offered as a complementary modality at major medical establishments throughout the country. Some of the benefits of Yoga Nidra:

• Improving sleep quality
• Reducing stress, anxiety, and depression
• Reducing blood pressure
• Effective for pain management
• Effective for addiction recovery

In this session, the participants will be guided through a classic Yoga Nidra session to experience a state of deep peacefulness. This session is available to all. Just bring your open heart and mind.  

I was first exposed to Yoga Nidra a few decades ago. The sense of deep rest and release that I felt had such a profound effect on me that I had to deepen my understanding of how it works. All I can say is that the practice of Yoga Nidra became part of my own healing process and soon after I began to incorporate it into other classes as well as other healing modalities that I provide.
