Yoga Nidra
Yoga Nidra meaning yoga sleep induces complete physical, mental and emotional relaxation. You may appear to be asleep in yoga nidra, but the consciousness is functioning at a deeper level of awareness. You are in a state between being awake and being asleep and the mind is extremely receptive.
During Yoga Nidra the whole brain is completely awakened and is open to be re-programmed and re-structured therefore is a fantastic tool to use to remove bad habits and negative thoughts. The mind is impressionable in this state and can be directed to acomplish anything.
Your intuition will deepen and you will trust ad believe in yourself.
We begin and end the practice by setting an Intention (sankalpa).
An Intention is a goal that you wish to achieve and by repeating this intention you are ingraining it into your subconscious and eventually in time, this strong and powerful intention will become your reality.
Yoga Nidra is great for stress relief. Throughout the day, each and everyone of us accumulate toxins and tensions in the body. These tensions build up in the physical, mental and emotional systems.
Yoga Nidra allows the physical body to enter a state of deep relaxation. The mind calms down and eases any mental conflicts and the entire emotional structure of the mind is tranquil.
Since practicing Yoga Nidra regularly, I have become much calmer and less stressed physically, mentally and emotionally. I feel totally rejuvenated afterwards and my mind is always clear and focused.
Yoga Nidra is an essential part of my practice as it helps to maintain my positive outlook on life and lifts my energy to a higher vibration.
When I have felt illness coming on, I prepare myself for Yoga Nidra and set my intention in accordance to what or how I want to be healed. I can physically feel that particular area being treated and feel much better after the session. For example, after my car accident I suffered soft tissue injury to my hand.
As I settled into savasana (corpse pose), I set my intention, 'Heal, Be Healed' with strong willpower and feeling. Within 5 minutes of the Yoga Nidra practice, I felt pins and needles exactly where my injury was as if it was being stitched up from the inside. The feeling was surreal and only lasted a minute.
The rest of the practice was very relaxed and serene and I woke feeling I had recieved deep healing from my higher self and my angels.
I have experienced some amazing moments during Yoga Nidra practice, sometimes feeling my spirit floating out of my body as I become aware of the suspension of consciousness as the mind alternates between the subconscious and unconscious states. Many of my personal experiences are hard to put into words but I can understand the messages loud and clear the majority of the time.
I would highly recommend Yoga Nidra to anyone who would like more peace and harmony in their life and less stress. It is also beneficial if you need healing.
Before you begin, do not expect anything! Allow yourself to completely relax and your mind to be clear. Cover yourself in a blanket and make sure you are warm. As you enter deep relaxation your heart rate will lower and so will your body temperature. It is important that you remain still until the end of the practice.
