IN PERSON and LIVESTREAM!

You’ve heard the term, but what does it actually mean? Nidrā, translated from Sanskrit, means “sleep”. How is “yogic sleep” different from regular sleep? Is it the same as meditation? What are the different “dimensions” of consciousness that we can access through this practice? There are multiple approaches to yoga nidrā, with different intentions, but all include the principle of letting the physical body relax completely while the mind remains alert. The body moves into the sleep state and the mind is guided through a process of calming, then is directed toward more subtle experiences. Paul will share the foundational theories of yoga nidrā and guide students through several practices. Practices include light āsana and breath work, then students lay down on yoga mats for yoga nidrā.

  • Yoga nidrā for relaxation, healing, sharpening cognition, and spiritual awakening

  • Sankalpa shakti (the power of resolve); how to increase capacity of will and determination

  • Differences between yoga nidrā and traditional meditation

  • Yoga nidrā and the koshas; how to address each layer of our being

  • The four states of consciousness
