Cette formation bilingue intensive de 50 heures en Total Yoga Nidra est dédiée aux professeurs de yoga et thérapeutes ayant passés le module « Foundation » (en formation résidentielle ou en ligne) et donne accès au diplôme délivré par Yoga Nidra Network.

L’ambition de cette formation est de vous permette d’enseigner le Yoga Nidra avec confiance dans le cadre de cours collectifs, de sessions individuelles ou de son application dans un cadre thérapeutique.

Le Total Yoga Nidra explore le potentiel de transformation et de guérison du Yoga Nidra et vous expose aux différentes traditions et lignées de manière non dogmatique.

Dans le cadre de cette formation vous allez:

Expérimenter le Yoga Nidra dans toute sa diversité
Explorer les différentes formes et niveaux de la pratique
Approfondir votre pratique de manière personnelle par delà les limites des yoga nidras conventionnelles et des traditions
Comprendre l’ensemble des méthodes, lignées et niveaux du Total Yoga Nidra
Expérimenter le Total Yoga Nidra comme l’existence de l’intelligence du coeur, comme une pratique adaptogène pouvant devenir un espace de guérison et d’introspection.
Améliorer sa confiance en soi pour partager la pratique du Total Yoga Nidra avec élèves et patients de manière responsable

Cette formation a été conçue par Uma Dinsmore-Tuli et Nirlipta Tuli, qui, ensemble, ont plus de 40 ans d’expérience de la pratique, de son enseignement et application dans un cadre thérapeutique. Cette formation est unique en son genre et offre tout à la fois la place à un un développement personnel et professionnel.

Intensive

Cette formation nécessite un certain engagement et de la concentration quant à l’enseignement et la pratique. C’est un travail de longue haleine et les sessions démarreront le matin dès 8h30 pour terminer jusqu’à parfois tard le soir. L’intensité de la formation, le grand nombre de pratiques en Yoga Nidra et le processus global de cette semaine rendent cette formation peu recommandable pour les personnes ayant été atteintes de psychoses par le passé.

Qu'est ce que le Total Yoga Nidra?

Total Yoga Nidra est le nom que nous avons décidé de donner à la forme que nous enseignons pendant les formations, les ateliers et autres retraites. C’est une approche compréhensible, non dogmatique, qui respecte et explore toutes les différentes pratiques de Yoga Nidra et en reconnaît les spécificités. Total Yoga Nidra vous permet d’expérimenter la pratique du Yoga Nidra dans toute sa diversité. C’est une pratique adaptogène et méditative qui a une capacité inhérente à guérir, ressourcer et libérer. Le Total Yoga Nidra puise de manière créative dans un large spectre de traditions et de méthodes anciennes et contemporaines.

Au delà de synthétiser de nombreuses approches et proposer diverses expériences, la pratique du Total Yoga Nidra reconnaît et donne de la valeur aux différents types de Yoga Nidra. Par exemple, la plupart des élèves sont familiers des enregistrements de Yoga Nidra mais n’ont pas nécessairement eu l’opportunité d’assister à un cours collectif avec un professeur. D’autres élèves ont, eux, eu l’occasion d’expérimenter des cours en studio où un professeur délivre un script. Cette expérience, bien que relaxante, est très différente d’une session conçue spécifiquement pour un individu. Cette autre expérience est à son tour différente d’une pratique qui comporte une intention spécifique préparée par l’élève et son professeur pour répondre à une problématique précise en fonction de la situation de l’élève tant au niveau du langage que du protocole utilisé.

Dans Cette Formation Vous Apprendrez À:

Concevoir et partager la pratique du Total Yoga Nidra en fonction de vos besoins et ceux de vos étudiants / patients.
Comprendre de manière empirique les structures et fonctions du Total Yoga Nidra, incluant les meilleures pratiques et techniques à éviter.
Transmettre les principes clefs de la psychologie et philosophie du yoga propre au Total Yoga Nidra
Intégrer le développement et l’histoire du Total Yoga Nidra à travers différentes lignées
Partager le Total Yoga Nidra de manière sensible et consciente du cadre émotionnel et spirituel de ceux qui la reçoive
À enseigner une série de postures restorative convenant à la pratique du Yoga Nidra
À dispenser des sessions en toute sécurité

Les Sujets Couverts Incluent:

Compréhension de la structure et des variations des approches ainsi que les différents niveaux de la pratique du Total Yoga Nidra
Hypnose clinique, autohypnose et yoga nidra – L’exploration de la relation entre ces trois pratiques
Étude de l’histoire et du développement du Yoga Nidra : Nyasa, Tantra, Satyananda Yoga, Himalayan Institute, Richard Miller, Swami Veda Bharati, Swami Jneshvara Bharati

ENGLISH

This course trains yoga teachers and others to teach and facilitate yoga nidra with confidence in class settings, one-to-ones, and for a range of therapeutic applications. Uniquely amongst yoga nidra trainings, it offers Total Yoga Nidra, a comprehensive, inclusive and non-dogmatic approach to yoga nidra that respects and explores not only a range of practice methods, but also acknowledges a variety of different levels of experience during yoga nidra.

Encounter yoga nidra in its totality
Explore the multiple forms and levels of this remarkable yoga practice
Become empowered to deepen your own intuitive practice of meditative yoga nidra beyond the limits of standard trademarked and traditional forms
Understand the full living range of different methods, lineages and levels of total yoga nidra
Experience total yoga nidra as a living intelligence of the heart, an adaptogenic practice of deep healing and self-discovery
Grow in confidence to share responsive and appropriate total yoga nidra practice with students and clients

This training is designed by Uma Dinsmore-Tuli and Nirlipta Tuli, who together have over forty years experience of practice, teaching and working therapeutically with all forms and levels of yoga nidra, is a uniquely comparative and creative, experiential course. It offers both practical training and personal and professional development.

Intensive

Please be very aware that this is what it says: an Intensive Course. It requires a willingness and energy to maintain an intense focus on learning and practice and sharing, and to work some long hours with early starts and some evening sessions. The intensive nature of the training and the number of multiple nidra experiences during the appraisal process mean that this Intensive Course is unsuitable for anyone who has experienced psychosis.

What is Total Yoga Nidra?

Total Yoga Nidra is a comprehensive, inclusive and non-dogmatic approach to yoga nidra that respects and explores not only a range of practice methods, but also acknowledges and supports a variety of different levels of experience during yoga nidra. Total yoga nidra empowers you to encounter yoga nidra in its totality: as an adaptogenic meditative practice without limits in terms of its capacity to heal, nourish and liberate.

Most people who are familiar with yoga nidra have listened to some kind of pre-recorded audio track(s), but might not have had the opportunity to encounter the practice live from a teacher in a group setting; and although many people may have experienced a live group yoga nidra, where a teacher delivers a standard script to a group of students, this relaxing experience is very different from practising yoga nidra that has been specifically tailored for a particular individual, for example in a one-to-one setting. This experience in turn is different from the encounter with yoga nidra that comes during a practice that is co-created by teacher and student together, with the specific intention to meet the student precisely where s/he is right now, both in language and method of practice, and in terms of the level at which that practice can be most appropriately met.

And whilst all of these experiences of yoga nidra certainly bring huge benefits, an entirely different set of possibilities open up when yoga nidra is set free from the need to have any external auditory guide of any kind. At this level of self practice, the protocols for practice are so deeply familiar to the practitioner that when we simply lie (or sit) quietly, then the practice can be invited to unfold silently, in the voice of our own intuitive inner guide.

In this course you will learn:

to devise and deliver Total Yoga Nidra practices appropriate to your needs and those of your students and clients;
a clear practical understanding of the structure and function of Total Yoga Nidra, including models of best practice, and techniques to be avoided;
a practical understanding of the key principles of yogic psychology and philosophy relevant to the practice of Total Yoga Nidra;
a contextual understanding of the development and history of Total Yoga Nidra across different lineages;
to share Total Yoga Nidra with an informed sensitivity to the emotional and spiritual experiences of those receiving the practice;
to teach a range of restorative yoga asanas suitable for use during yoga nidra practice;
to teach within the appropriate safety guidelines for this type of yoga practice.

Topics covered include:

Understanding the structure and variations in approaches to, and levels of, Total Yoga Nidra practice
Clinical hypnosis, self-hypnosis and yoga nidra – a full exploration of the relationship between these practices
Further explorations in history and development of yoga nidra: nyasa, tantra, Satyananda Yoga, Himalayan Institute, Richard Miller, Swami Veda Bharati, Swami Jneshvara Bharati
Deeper explorations of yoga philosophy and cosmology in relation to Total Yoga Nidra
Exploring research on yoga nidra exploring the value of understandings from neuroscience, clinical psychology, psycho-neuro-immunology and physiology in relation to the function of yoga nidra, including stress and the relaxation response
Restorative asana: refinements on propping poses for yoga nidra
Sankalpa: resolution and intention setting, listening to inner guidance, framing and using Sankalpa within and around yoga nidra
Breath awareness /pranayama: specific use within the structure of yoga nidra session, and to support the practice of yoga nidra
Visualisations: a range of different traditional and creative scripting options, contra- indications, appropriateness and therapeutic value
