Welcome to our transformative session of Nova Nidra, guided by Ayla Nova. This ancient practice of Yoga Nidra or 'yogic sleep' allows us to delve deeply into relaxation while maintaining a trace of awareness.Understanding Cutting Cords: Historically, the practice of cutting cords stems from various spiritual traditions, where it is used to sever energetic ties that bind us to past experiences or relationships that no longer serve our highest good. These ties are thought to impact our emotional and energetic health, and cutting them is seen as a way to cleanse our spirit or aura and reclaim personal energy.In today's session, Ayla Nova honours the courage it takes to engage in this deep healing work. We begin by setting the stage for a comfortable practice, aligning the body and calming the mind. You will be guided through the layers of your being—from the physical to the profound—using the gentle flow of breath and the power of intention (Sankalpa) to foster inner peace and release.'Whatever the present moment contains, accept it as if you had chosen it. Always work with it, not against it.' – Eckhart TollePS. Join Live for an Equinox Nova | September 22 | https://youtube.com/live/i5GtQI0vTl0?feature=shareYoga Nidra session will help you:• Release energetic ties from experiences or relationships that no longer serve your highest good.• Diminish feelings of stress and mental exhaustion, rejuvenating your mind.• Set the foundation for a night of deep, healing rest.• Promote a state of emotional neutrality and calm through guided relaxation.What to Expect:• An introduction to Yoga Nidra's core principles• Setting a personal intention or Sankalpa for mental clarity• Guided techniques for profound mental relaxation• A thorough Yoga Nidra journey focusing on anchoring in the presentWho This is For: This session is ideal for anyone looking to embrace their whole self and let go of past burdens. It is particularly beneficial for those dealing with exhaustion from past experiences or connections and anyone seeking deeper self-compassion and understanding.00:12 Welcoming Words from Ayla Nova00:00 Preparing for Yoga Nidra00:00 Nervous System Rest | Deep Breathing00:00 The Practice of Yoga Nidra Begins NowSpecial thanks to the community supporters:🌟 Joe J 🌟 Carl A 🌟 Sarah F 🌟 Archaeon🌟 Marta M🌟 Debby B🌟CDorner Fitness 🌟 MaureenOK 🌟 Anna Z 🌟 Divya D 🌟 Petra A 🌟 Cheryl C 🌟 Mei Y 🌟 Stephanie A 🌟 Frances B 🌟 Oscar R 🌟 Susan D 🌟 Gina G 🌟 Jennie J 🌟 Kim D 🌟 Your are all shining stars...

Join me, Ayla Nova, on a restful journey through the practice of Yoga Nidra; together, we dive into the depths of stillness and peace for a deep restorative sleep. Drawing from the wisdom of Lao Tzu, we're reminded that a quiet mind unveils the universe's secrets, offering a path to deep rest and self-discovery. As you lay down, align your body and turn your attention inward to anchor you in the present. This session explores the inner self, a guided journey through the body that encourages every part to unwind. Through this practice, we connect with our Sankalpa—our innermost intentions and desires—integrating them into our being. This experience is an invitation to encounter the tranquillity within, leading to profound relaxation and a renewed sense of awareness.Thank you for being here."To the mind that is still, the whole universe surrenders." — Lao Tzu00:00 Introduction00:12 Welcoming Words from Ayla Nova01:45  Preparing for Yoga Nidra02:40 The Yoga Nidra Practice Begins🌙 Our session focuses on:• Healing and self-renewal in adversity• Clearing the chakras for profound rest• Deep relaxation for better sleep and self-connection🔄 When to Practice:Revisit this session whenever you seek to strengthen your inner trust or find peace within.
