“Yoga nidra is a revitalizing exercise that gives total rest to the mind, brain, nervous system, senses and body. Except through meditation and yoga nidra, one cannot give rest to the totality of the mind. There is no drug and no scientific or physical technique so far discovered that gives rest to the unconscious part of the mind, except the technique of yoga nidra”. – Swami Rama

What is Yoga Nidra?

Yoga Nidra is a very ancient tool for healing that has its origins in Hinduism. Hypnotherapy has its basis in Yoga Nidra.

Yoga Nidra is a state of mind, a state of consciousness. In this state, your body is asleep, but your mind is awake. It is a form of meditation that allows you to find deep relaxation while remaining conscious.

The literal translation of ‘Yoga’ is union or oneness and nidra means sleep. In a practical sense, Yoga Nidra normalizes the physiology of the body provides us with the right conditions for the body to heal itself.
