yoga nidra | sleep yoga
Yoga Nidra means Yogic Sleep.
It is a state of conscious Deep Sleep. In Meditation, you remain in the Waking state of consciousness, and gently focus the mind, while allowing thought patterns, emotions, sensations, and images to arise and go on. However, in Yoga Nidra, you leave the Waking state, go past the Dreaming state, and go to Deep Sleep, yet remain awake. While Yoga Nidra is a state that is very relaxing, it is also used by Yogis to purify the Samskaras, the deep impressions that are the driving force behind Karma.
Our 1.5 hour session can be the equivalent of approximately 2-3 hours of sleep.
All props and supports are provided. Yoga mats available for rent $1.
