Do you ever wish that you could just stop doing so much and take a moment to rest? Really rest, with your whole body. Imagine adding pillows, blankets, and all the coziness you need to slow down. The practice of resting the body and quieting the mind is called 'Yoga Nidra', or 'yogic sleep'. It is a guided meditation technique that might be for you if you have difficulty with sitting still for traditional meditation.
Join Masha for a 4 week series of classes on all things Nidra. We will cover history & basics of the practice, restorative propping, and experience guided meditations together. Throughout month, you will receive additional Yoga Nidra recordings and journaling prompts for your home practice.
Our Yoga Nidra Immersion is designed to give you skills and practices to return to your own center and restore. This is where we deepen our embodied exploration of rest. The immersion is offered as a 4 Week Series. It is a pre-requisite for our Yoga Nidra for Changemakers Training Program.
