HOW TO APPLY

Surrender yourself to the grace of Yoga Nidra and embody the teachings that allow you to powerfully and authentically transmit transformative and healing  experiences that lead to the state of Yoga Nidra.

“YOGA NIDRA WAS THE FIRST 30-DAY PRACTICE I DID... IT WAS LIFE CHANGING.


After the first two days I noticed I was breathing more deeply, fully. I practice yoga nidra in the afternoon, and immediately I noticed I had more energy for the rest of the day. After a week I noticed I felt peaceful and content even in the middle of work and general life stress. It was like finding a magic reset button that I could press whenever I needed. At the end of the 30 days I felt an internal stillness and quiet. It was a sense of confidence or faith in self that I’ve never known before…a state of being. It was contentment beyond the everyday stresses and realities of being a working mother with young children. Yoga nidra even shifted things in a positive way in my relationships with others – my husband and my children. I was softer, more patient, more loving. I felt I had access to greater internal resources during times of stress. I am still in awe of the power of this one practice to transform from the inside out.”
