Yoga Nidra via Zoom


Details
Yoga Nidra or yogic sleep is a state of consciousness between waking and sleeping, like the "going-to-sleep" stage. It is a state in which the body is completely relaxed, and the practitioner becomes systematically and increasingly aware of the inner world by following a set of verbal instructions. This state of consciousness (yoga nidra) is different from meditation in which concentration on a single focus is required. In Yoga Nidra the practitioner remains in a state of complete relaxation - in somewhat of sensory withdrawal using verbal instruction (from me) to internalize and focus on breathing and body.
Yoga Nidra is among the deepest possible states of relaxation while still maintaining fully consciousness. The practice of Yoga Nidra has been found to reduce tension and anxiety. It is an ancient practice and has been scientifically proven to reduce tension and anxiety. It is currently being used extensively for the treatment of PTSD.
Although it is preferred this be done in person due to the lingering covid concerns we will use zoom. I will send out zoom link an hour before class to those who signed up.
