Yoga Nidra is a deep relaxation and meditation technique that is nourishing and restorative. Total Yoga Nidra encompasses all styles of yoga nidra from a variety of sources, and is a radical, creative and intuitive approach to sharing yoga nidra in a way that is profoundly healing.
Total Yoga Nidra has many benefits including that it:
- refreshes vitality and supports health and well being
- brings us home to ourselves, where we rediscover innate peace of life
- boosts creativity and develops the facility for intuitive insights when practised regularly
- gives expanded awareness for lucid living, that awakens consciousness of sleep and dream
- reconnects us to the source of our own loving nature, empowering us to welcome happiness and purpose in every dimension of life.
Awaken your consciousness of sleep and dream through the tantric practice of expanded awareness for lucid living. Become alive to the source of well-being, happiness and purpose in every dimension of life.
We understand yoga nidra to be the most transformative, potent and remarkably adaptive of all yoga practices. Yoga nidra is in fact not really a single practice, but rather an experience of altered states of consciousness, essentially meditative experiences, which can be used therapeutically for healing, as well as to enhance creativity and productivity and to improve sleep and general health.
The Total Yoga Nidra Immersion Experience is a self-contained and complete retreat- style immersion (non-residential). It offers an accessible and profound experience of Total Yoga Nidra, providing a perfect opportunity for those who have encountered other partial or limited forms of the practice to meet the full spectrum of approaches to yoga nidra.
The combination of theory and practice will give you a sound foundation (or to deepen your existing foundation) of understanding about what yoga nidra is in the broadest sense, and how it works, together with plenty of live, responsive and practical experiences of a full range of yoga nidra.
