The practice is like a very long savasana\, where you rest in a comfortable position and listen to a guided meditation that rotates your consciousness throughout the body. Yoga Nidra can be defined as: sleep with trace awareness or conscious deep relaxation. Yoga Nidra is a conscious state that occurs between waking consciousness and dreaming consciousness\, also known as “sleepless sleep.” \n\n \n \nWhat are the benefits of yoga nidra?\nThe many benefits of a consistent yoga nidra practice include:\n \n*Decrease in release of stress hormones\n*Decrease in blood pressure levels\n*Decrease in blood glucose levels\n*Pain reduction\n*Improved mood\n*Increased sense of wellness and ease\n*Reduction in anxiety\n*Release of negative samskaras (deeply held impressions in the unconscious mind)\n*Conscious realization of suppressed desires\, emotions\, etc.\n*Experience of profound spiritual insights\n\n \n \n\nWhat do I need to bring?\nYou will be reclined on your yoga mat for about half an hour\, so choose any props that will allow you to remain comfortable. We have blocks\, bolsters\, blankets\, and mats in the studio\, but you are welcome to bring your own. Some like to use a lightweight eye\npillow during their yoga nidra practice.
