discover the power and explore the potential of Yogic Sleep, conscious deep rest—an ancient relaxation technique with a systematic approach to guide the physical body into sleep while working to keep a part of the mind aware.
the first part of class will entail movement, stretching, or restorative poses to prep the body for receptivity; guided meditation; and/or journaling & discussion.
the second part of class is dedicated to Yoga Nidra, practiced while lying comfortably in supported Savasana (corpse pose). highly accessible and appropriate for anyone in need of a reset, sleep aid, or a caffeine-free sugar-free alternative for that midday “pick me up.”
at its simplest, Yoga Nidra replenishes the body and mind with a natural surge of energy and boosts the immune system, as the brain waves slip out of beta and oscillate between alpha, theta, and with practice, delta. this practice’s potential is limitless however, and can go as deep as the practitioner is open & willing to go, as this is also a rewiring of neural pathways in the brain: tapping into intuition; receiving creative insight; and reprogramming hardwired habits, thought patterns, and limiting belief systems are all possible when resting in this highly receptive state.
if you’re curious, come with an open mind and let the experience speak for itself.
dress in warm, comfortable layers.
avoid caffeine the morning of, if possible.
pen + paper or journal always welcome :)
