An ancient practice often referred to as deep yogic sleep, yoga nidra* has been around for millenia. This deeply restful practice brings us to where the nervous system can rebalance, recuperation and healing can occur, and complete and fulfilling rest can settle into all aspects of our physical, mental and emotional being. In the practice of yoga nidra, there are no movements, no postures and no pranayama, simply deep rest in the presence of gentle guidance.
Other than securing a quiet comfortable place like a couch or a bed on which to rest, the practitioner needs to do nothing but relax and be guided into what practitioners report to be a deep, rejuvenating and meaningful experience.
Beginners welcome. These classes makes yoga do-able for anyone who wants the deeper benefits of yoga without requirements for balance, strength or flexibility. These class replays are focused on seated movements, but some supported standing movements may be included.
