This is an amazing course to cultivate your practice and experience of Yoga Nidra!This course is ideal for anyone looking to deepen their own Yoga Nidra practice and understanding of these quiet teachings, whether you feel called to facilitate classes or simply wish to explore the practice more deeply to cultivate clarity, peace, resilience, fulfillment, and purpose.
Explore the law of samskaras (karmas) and gain a deeper understanding of how our impressions, thoughts, and emotions shape our core beliefs and influence the results in our lives. Learn how to begin “re-wiring” these karmic patterns through the powerful process of intention (sankalpa).
Develop an understanding of trauma-informed Yoga Nidra and learn to use trauma-sensitive language to create a practice that feels safe, supportive, and accessible.
Learn everything you need to skillfully and authentically lead Yoga Nidra practices and create a sacred space where students can feel supported as they drop into deep rest.
Learn how to systematically guide students through the five subtle body layers (maya koshas): the physical, energetic, mental/emotional, witness, and pure presence.
Discover how to create rich, authentic, and creative Yoga Nidra scripts that are uniquely YOU, while remaining true to the traditional teachings and practices of Yoga Nidra.
