Yoga Nidra
Just as a car engine needs to be turned off and allowed to cool down after a long drive, similarly, after doing yoga postures, we need to cool our body with yoga nidra. It helps conserve and consolidate the energy from the yoga poses. Yoga nidra relaxes the entire system, preparing it for pranayama and deeper meditation. Stress is the number one cause of injury and illness, it is important to explore methods to keep balanced and joyful in the chaos of everyday life.
Guided Relaxation removes tension and fatigue in the physical body, relieves depression and anxiety, relieves headaches, reduces cravings and desires, rejuvenates and energizes the entire system, bolsters the body's natural healing capacities, and normalizes the circulatory system's functioning.
During class you will be guided into a state of deep relaxation where your breathing and thoughts are slowed almost to the point of stopping, which can be as restorative as a full night's sleep. When done regularly and with intention, one can more easily cross over into Psychic Sleep.
It is through this deep practice that you can gradually come to recognize that you are so much more than the body or the mind. The benefits of this class are cumulative - the more you do it, the greater the benefit.

Peace and Light
