What is Yoga Nidra?
Yoga = Union, Wholeness, Integration
Nidra = Sleep
Yoga nidra = sleep to awaken
In this ancient, sleep-based meditation technique, we are guided in a series of simple techniques using a combination of gentle body movements and breath, coordinated with awareness.
The techniques of Yoga Nidra take the body into a deeply relaxed state, much like REM sleep, while maintaining a deep, alert consciousness. In this state, the healing power of prana, our body’s energy system, is naturally disengaged from our often fragmented mental and emotional activities. As a result, energy flows freely, carrying out restorative and regenerative healing.
Resting here, we can experience a profound sense of stillness and peace which permeates our whole body and being. We experience our true essential nature, the core of our being, the wholeness and peace which already exists within.
In Yoga Nidra, we learn how to deeply relax and drop into the Alpha and Theta Brainwave state – without dropping into unconscious sleep. Once we learn how to drop into a deep sleep-like relaxation and still remain conscious, the energy that was preoccupied by unconscious limitations becomes infused with an expansive state of Consciousness. Now we have tuned into the unlimited source of creativity and potentiality of our True Self.
The use of a self-created intention is utilized to dissolve and resolve the behavior patterns that are the cause of stress, worry and tension in life.
By regularly practicing Yoga Nidra and experiencing integration, we can experience deep and lasting transformation on all levels. We experience Oneness – the state of integration of body, mind, heart and soul.
