The Mystical Science of Relaxation and Transformation
Practiced regularly, Yoga Nidra or 'Conscious Sleep', allows the practitioner to access a state of relaxation that is so deep and thorough it verges on actual sleep, yet preserves a subtle awareness of surroundings. It is this divergent state of consciousness, hovering between a normal ‘awake’ state and unconscious brain states. Ideally, the brain remains situated for periods of time in a Delta wave state where the nervous system goes through a profound reset.
Yoga Nidra, known as योग निद्रा in Sanskrit, originates from the term 'Yogic Sleep' or 'Psychic Sleep.' It involves achieving a particular state of consciousness through the deepest relaxation without drifting into actual sleep. This state of consciousness allows us to ride the delicate boundary between wakefulness and slumber, offering us access to a profoundly receptive state of being. Healing and rejuvenation takes place on all levels. Yoga Nidra's popularity is steadily increasing due to its effectiveness in alleviating pain and chronic stress, and anxiety and depression resulting from past trauma and the pervasive sense of discontentment often associated with the modern lifestyle.
