A little background on iRest and how it came to life- Dr. Richard Miller designed this style of meditation back in the early 2000’s. He was conducting research and trials helping to treat military warriors coming back from the Gulf War with a host of trauma related issues. He was noticing how successful this form of meditation was to the community he was treating and approached the military to implement it. They revised the “yoga nidra” typical name and coined this version as iRest, which adds in a therapeutic approach. iRest is now used in a various of conditions and communities, military helping with PTSD, anxiety, fear, depression, survivors, insomnia, chemical dependency, cancer and so much more.
What's different from a regular Yoga Nidra to an iRest?
iRest is designed to support a person’s healthy defenses and conditioning, and to allow the person to uncover and integrate challenging material and experiences at their own pace. A typical Yoga Nidra is more imagery based and more directive while the iRest practice allows a person to “welcome” and accept themselves as they are, as it is in this moment. It doesn’t help them escape their problems, but rather to accept them, find meaning to them, and live purposeful, vital lives. iRest also integrates an “inner resource” or “safe place” as a typical yoga Nidra does not.
iRest Yoga Nidra offers you a profound guided meditation that teaches deep relaxation and how to live with the paradox of life and love so that you can return to the remembrance of your perfect well-being.
iRest is a meditation and relaxation practice that makes you able to handle the stress and strains we feel in daily life. Derived from the Yoga tradition, iRest is an evidence-based approach with research that shows it is helpful with healing anxiety, sleep, and chronic pain disorders, as well increases wellbeing and joy.
Yoga Nidra= Yogic Sleep
No experience is needed. iRest is not a religion or belief system. All you need to do is sit or lie comfortably, hear what is said and notice your response to it. iRest is all about noticing where and how do you feel it in your body. iRest is a 10 step process that teaches us how to respond to lifes challenges with the tools we naturally possess, integrating feeling, thoughts and actions which restores well-being and wholeness.
