 Grounded Presence & Deep Restoration: Yoga Nidra [20 min] Ever feel like your body is exhausted, your mind won’t shut off, and your stress levels are stuck on high?You’re not alone—and you’re not broken. You’re just overdue for real rest. Not the scrolling-on-your-phone kind, but the actual nervous-system-reset kind. That’s where Yoga Nidra comes in. What Is Yoga Nidra? Yoga Nidra, or “yogic sleep,” is a powerful guided meditation that brings you into a state between waking and sleeping. You're not actually asleep, your body is deeply relaxed, but your mind remains alert. It’s like pressing a giant reset button for your brain and body. Unlike most forms of yoga, you don’t move during yoga nidra. Instead, you lie down, get cozy, and listen as you're gently guided through breath awareness, body scanning, visualization, and intention setting. It's not about trying harder. It’s about letting go. Backed by research, Yoga Nidra has been shown to: Lower cortisol (your stress hormone) Improve sleep quality Enhance focus and creativity Support recovery from burnout and chronic fatigue Reduce anxiety and support emotional resilience(Kumar, 2008; Datta et al., 2022) How to Practice Yoga Nidra You don’t need any experience to begin. Here’s how to get started: Find a quiet space. Lay on your back with a yoga mat, blanket, or even your bed. Get comfortable. Use props—pillows under the knees, a rolled towel under the neck, an eye pillow or light blanket. Stay still. The less you move, the deeper the relaxation. Listen to the recording. You’ll be guided through steps that gradually shift your brainwaves from beta (thinking) to alpha and theta (deep relaxation). Don’t try to “do” it. Just listen. If your mind wanders, that’s okay. Bring it back gently. You’re not “doing it wrong” if you drift off or lose track. That’s part of the process. Signs You’ve Entered Deep Rest You might notice: A sense of weightlessness or heaviness Vivid imagery or colors behind your eyelids Deep calm, like waking from the best nap ever Subtle twitching or energy shifts (that’s your nervous system relaxing) These are all signs your body is shifting into parasympathetic mode—rest, digest, and restore.

But rest isn't a reward, it's a requirement. Yoga Nidra doesn’t just help you relax. It helps you remember who you are underneath the noise. Give yourself permission to rest. Not because you've earned it, but because you’re human. ✨ Ready to Go Deeper? 📥 Download my free Yoga Kickstart Guide🧘‍♀️ Join me for a live class and experience deep rest in community.
