By the riverYoga Nidra is a structured approach to guided meditation that brings profound relaxation while keeping awareness intact. The practice offers deep relaxation, healing and personal transformation.
Lie down in Shavasana, comfortable and still; guided focus helps release physical tension.
A positive affirmation or goal is repeated mentally and embeds itself in the subconscious.
Rotation of consciousness through the body eases muscle tension and deepens relaxation.
Attention rests on the natural breath, calming the nervous system and heightening mindfulness.
Guided imagery — serene scenes or symbols — taps the subconscious for emotional healing.
A deep state between waking and sleep, observing thoughts without attachment.
Awareness returns to the body, the Sankalpa is reaffirmed and the session closes in tranquillity.
