We are so excited to be offering you a live, online three-hour Introduction to Yoga Nidra Workshop, offered over two consecutive days.
It’s time to Chill So Hard!
Part One: Thurs., May 30 | 1-2:30 pm ET
Part Two: Fri., Mar 31 | 1-2:30 pm ET
Yoga Nidra translates to “yogic sleep.” But it is so much more than that. This method of deep relaxation is a rich tool of inner connection and transformation. This 2-part workshop is a combination of discussion, information-share, and guided practice where you will learn how to tap into your body's own relaxation and restoration response via the parasympathetic nervous system, all while building a more dynamic connection to self-inquiry.
We will explore yogic philosophy, emerging research, and how yoga nidra works with all of the layers of our being to bring us into union with our true nature. Whether you need some space to rest, or you are curious to learn more about this method of deep relaxation, this workshop is perfect for you!
Attendees should have a yoga mat available, as well as some relaxation props, including (but not limited to) pillows, blankets, eye pillows, or whatever else may feel good.
If you’re not a member of our community yet, we’d love to have you! Learn more here.
