Restful Medicine - Yoga Nidra for Anxiety

Yoga Nidra for Anxiety

Restful Medicine

play

05/16/24 • 31 min

Make space for the mental stress to dissipate and follow the pathway to a clearer and peaceful presence with renewed clarity and a calm and balanced nervous system.

Yoga Nidra provides the tools for maintaining a sense of wellbeing and peacefulness, allowing the fluctuations of the mind to slow and return to a state of homeostasis allowing you to drift into a conscious, deep sleep state simply through the guidance through a systematic sequence of soothing and relaxing techniques that increase your awareness and deepens your relaxation.

Throughout the practice, you’re providing extra comfort and relaxation throughout the physical body allowing your brainwaves to regulate into a resting, calm, peaceful state that has been shown to help with insomnia, stress, grief, depression, anxiety, and symptoms from PTSD.

Yoga Nidra allows you to tap into your very own awareness and experience and there is no wrong way to practice. No prior experience necessary.

This 35 minute Yoga Nidra meditation is for those dark times of deep sorrow and sadness. Yoga Nidra is backed by science as a way to become less emotionally reactive and to balance the nervous system.

Prior experience is not necessary.
