Yoga Nidra, often translated as “yogic sleep,” is an ancient, guided meditation practice that invites you into deep relaxation and inner awareness. Practiced in savasana—lying comfortably on your back with pillows and blankets for support—you are gently guided into the restorative space between wakefulness and sleep.
During this 45-minute practice, your brainwave activity slows into the alpha, theta, and delta states—the same states accessed in deep meditation and rest. Here, the body naturally releases tension, the mind quiets, and healing energy begins to flow. Just one Yoga Nidra session can be as refreshing as three hours of sleep.
Through breath awareness, visualization, and focused attention, Yoga Nidra soothes the nervous system and restores balance from the inside out. Research shows it can help ease stress, anxiety, chronic pain, insomnia, headaches, digestive issues, and emotional imbalance.
In this sacred space of conscious rest, we shift from thinking and doing to feeling and being. As energy blocks dissolve and tension releases, we awaken to a profound sense of calm, clarity, and wholeness.
✨ Yoga Nidra is especially supportive for anyone experiencing fatigue, sleep disturbances, or stress overload. It is an effortless practice of rest, renewal, and reconnection.
