EcoNIDRA is a gentle and restorative meditation-like practice that guides us back into connection with ourselves and the earth. It is a blend of the ancient practice of yoga nidra and forest therapy. We'll be connecting with nature through meditation from inside the cozy studio. Like yoga nidra, you lie down in a comfortable position and follow the voice of a guide. During the session, you bring your attention to your breath, various sensations, and different parts of your body, helping you enter a state between wakefulness and sleep. Then you are taken on a journey through the earth, listening to natural soundscapes and allowing the imaginal sense to take you wherever you wish to go.
Unlike some forms of meditation that require active concentration, EcoNIDRA allows you to simply let go and be guided into a state of deep relaxation. It brings us to a deep state of non-doing that helps us sleep better, reduce stress, and restore profound peace, relaxation and rejuvenation to the body. EcoNIDRA practice can have the same effect as 3-4 hours of deep, restful sleep.
Join us in the studio and give yourself the gift of stillness.
