What is Yoga Nidra Meditation?
Yoga Nidra, often referred to as yogic sleep, is a guided mind-body meditation that gently guides you into a state of whole-body awareness for effortless relaxation and deep healing. As you enter this state, your body transitions into the parasympathetic nervous system, activating its natural healing mechanisms.
Yoga Nidra supports optimal health and well-being for everyone. However, it is particularly beneficial for individuals who face a high level of chronic stress. Additionally, it offers relief for those dealing with sleep deprivation, insomnia, trauma, and mental health concerns such as anxiety and depression.
Yoga Nidra meditation can be experienced in any comfortable position, such as seated, lying down in bed, or on a yoga mat. No yoga or meditation experience is needed, to enjoy the full benefits of Yoga Nidra.
