Genuine rest forms one of the foundations of our health and well-being. Deep relaxation is a huge stress reliever and forms the ground for restoration and healing. At the same time it’s the place from which new energy arises, and new idea’s start to bloom. And Yet…this space seems not so easy to find or fit into our daily lives.

Yoga nidra takes your hand and gently shows you the way to your own place of profound rest and deep relaxation. And the beauty is that even though it has it’s roots in the ancient scriptures, It is also one of the most accessible practices of yoga there is.

This training combines knowledge about the science of rest with the ancient teachings of yoga nidra. Making it very clear why this practice is so powerful, healing and helpful in many different ways.

Yoga nidra works on the deeper layers of consciousness. In order to guide others, your own experience is a must.  Therefor your own practice, process and self-reflection will be an important part of this training. There will be space and guidance for your own journey.

You’ll learn about Yoga Nidra’s history, and the different lineages. You’ll dive into the science of sleep and the workings of your nervous system. And how they relate to yoga nidra. You learn about the structure of a yoga nidra and how to build one. You will explore which techniques to use, what their benefits and contra-indications are, and how to share them authentically.

In order for people to truly relax, there must be a save and inclusive space.  We’ll dive into this subject too. The ability to create and hold a save, inclusive space is essential for every one sharing the practice of yoga nidra or any other form of yoga. And…more awareness around this subject is a huge asset for life in general.
