Yoga nidra is a guided lying down meditation for transformative rest and constructive dreaming. This is our monthly online Friday Night Nidra in rhythm with nature (scroll down for themes)
Yoga nidra offers strong benefits:
– deep rest
– insight on inner processes and outer conundrums
– wisdom for what next
The workshop includes:
- introduction to the practice and the season-based theme
- mindful yoga moves
- 40 minute yoga nidra (guided lying down meditation)
- space to share then and then or to be in touch after

Viveka Gardens is keen to make yoga available to all – bursaries for those on benefit/low income. Please contact to discuss.
You will need:
*A yoga mat, blanket or soft surface to lie on
*A bolster or roll pillows in a towel or small blanket, or put the bundle in a pillowcase, or roll up a heavy blanket. Two such bundles would be good, but can probably manage with one especially if you are more on the short and slim side
*eye pillow or scarf to cover your eyes (optional)
*layers of clothes and an extra blanket for warmth
*pets, partners, children to leave you alone!

Insomnia sufferers keep coming back for the great nights’ sleep that follow
Thank-you so much for last night (Friday Night Nidra). It was truly both amazing and beautiful. I was so relaxed, and still am, listening to the birds this morning. It seemed such a deep experience and I slept for hours afterwards. Julie, Okehampton
That was super relaxing thank you. I have no doubt it did me the world of good and I definitely feel rested. You have a lovely way of of teaching nidra. A lovely way to begin some time to unwind from an extremely stressful period. Much thanks Ruth, Oxford
Thank you so much for the Yoga Nidra session. I had an amazing sleep last night. I noticed during the nidra that I felt my heart area becoming warm. Maybe this is fanciful on my part! But I went with it and it felt – for the want of a better word – reassuring. Margaret, Cork
