Yoga Nidra

Yoga Nidra is one of the deepest of all meditations which results in an incredible quietness, calmness and clarity of mind and body.
 
Yoga Nidra:
  • is one of the deepest of all meditations.
  • leaves the waking state, passes the dreaming state, and enters the deep sleep state – yet you remain awake.
  • gains access to the subconscious level of the mind, underneath the layers of processing, fantasising and imagining levels.
  • is the doorway to the causal level of reality from which comes the subtle, psychic and astral planes of reality.
  • purifies the Samskaras – the deep impressions that are the driving force behind Karma.
  • has the ability to reorganise, restructure and recondition a person’s psychological personality.
  • is a technique that works from the mind and takes us systematically through the whole human being, working on the different areas until we are in a deep state of relaxation or receptivity.
