Yoga nidra, also known as yogic sleep, is a powerful technique for controlling the body’s relaxation response and promoting deep rest.
The practice of yoga nidra induces a state of consciousness between waking and sleeping. Deep rest and healing can take place in this state, making it beneficial for a wide array of physical, mental and emotional ailments.
Giving your mind and body an extra window of deep relaxation offers powerful benefits.
