YOGA NIDRA

THE EXPERIENCE

A state of conscious unconsciousness. Learn to surf between the states of wakefulness and sleep as you are led effortlessly into a place of deep relaxation and mental stillness. Yoga Nidra is a unique and immensely powerful process where you are guided through a systematic technique of several stages; rotation of awareness around the body, breath control, focussed intention, visualisation and observation of free flowing consciousness.

As you travel through four levels of brain wave activity; beta, alpha, theta, and delta, thoughts quieten. Unconscious aspects of the mind reveal themselves, and you experience complete tranquillity. Yoga Nidra has been proven to help reduce stress and improve sleep. Other benefits include enhanced creativity, improved heart rate variation and mental clarity.

The practice has also been shown to reduce psychometrically measured indices of mild depression and anxiety read more.
