Yoga Nidra ~ Simple Practice & Profound Results ~ Yoga Tech

This is a live excerpt of a recording from a Yoga Enrichment Workshop lecture for a group of wellness professionals with Jes Rosenberg 2017. “Simple Practice, Profound Results” This is one of the easiest yoga practices to develop and maintain and incorporate into your life. Yoga Nidra is a state of consciousness between waking and sleeping, like the "going-to-sleep" stage. It is a state in which the body is completely relaxed, and the practitioner becomes systematically and increasingly aware of the inner world by following a set of verbal instructions. This state of consciousness (yoga nidra) is different from meditation in which concentration on a single focus is required. In yoga nidra the practitioner remains in a state of light pratyahara with four of his or her senses internalized, that is, withdrawn, and only the hearing still connects to the instructions.
