About Yoga Nidra
Yoga Nidra, offered referred to as Yogic Sleep or Sleepless Sleep, is an ancient practice intended to take you deeper into an altered state of awareness — the state between asleep and awake — where you’re fully conscious but your body and mind are fully at rest and ease. You will be guided from the Beta brain wave state - this is where we vibrate during most of everyday life - into surfing the liminal space between the Alpha and Theta brain wave states. It’s here that restoration and healing can take place on a cellular level.
Yoga Nidra is generally practiced lying down to aid your body into full relaxation. Props, pillows and blankets are commonly used, as well as anything that will help you get into a totally comfortable, restful position.
Studies have even shown that just one hour of Yoga Nidra is equal to four hours of sleep. But the real wisdom comes from experiencing the practice for yourself.
Studies have shown that Yoga Nidra can help to:
Ease insomnia
Decrease anxiety
Alleviate stress
Reduce PTSD, chronic pain and fatigue
Heighten awareness and focus
Transform negative habits, behaviors and ways of thinking
Foster feelings of peace, calm, and clarity
