Come and join Evangeline for a profound
experience of a meditation practice. Yoga Nidra is a simple guided
meditation technique that is practiced while lying down on the floor in a
supine position (savasana or corpse pose). While the body is very
still and relaxed, the mind is aware as you listen to the voice of the teacher
guiding you through the meditation practice.
Yoga Nidra means
yogic sleep or having a trace of awareness. It is the sleep after
throwing off the three basic types of tension which are muscular, emotional and
mental tension. The brain goes into the Alpha state or hypnogogic state.
Prolonging the Alpha state allows for deep healing on all levels of our being.
Research has found that fifteen minutes of
Yoga Nidra is equivalent
to four hours of sleep.
One emerges from the practice of Yoga
Nidra feeling fresh, invigorated and inspired. Yoga Nidra can
be practiced at any time and place or after a regular yoga class. We will begin
with a thirty minute restorative yoga practice followed by one hour of yoga
nidra meditation. Experience absolute relaxation and deep self-awareness
through the practice of Yoga Nidra.
Reminder: Dress warmly, socks, long sleeve shirt or light
jacket.
