I’m excited to share this gentle journey of deep rest and inner calm with you. Here’s how to make the most of your Yoga Nidra practice.


Set the Scene

  • Find a quiet, comfortable spot where you won’t be disturbed.

  • Dress in soft, breathable layers.

  • Gather a mat, blanket, cushion, and maybe an eye mask.

  • Avoid heavy meals for at least two hours before.

  • Silence distractions and keep your space cozy.


During Practice

  • Lie down with arms at your sides, palms mostly up, and adjust props for comfort.

  • Follow the guide’s voice, letting go of control and judgment.

  • Stay open to whatever arises — sensations, emotions, or memories.

  • Gradually return to wakefulness as the session ends.


After Practice

  • Transition slowly: stretch, wiggle, and rise mindfully.

  • Consider journaling your reflections to track insights and growth.


Yoga Nidra is simple, restorative, and accessible — a quiet invitation to reconnect with yourself and your inner calm.
