YOGA NIDRA Yoga nidra is a lying down practice, similar to meditation; all you have to do is follow my voice as we take the awareness on a journey around the body. HOW IT WORKS When we engage in sound relaxation, our brainwaves are slowed down, taking us into an altered state, similar to deep meditation. This is deeply relaxing and allows the body to return to homeostasis, where natural healing can take place. The added benefits are often better sleep, and a feeling of relaxation and rejuvenation, which can last for days.
