Yoga Nidra

Yoga Nidra, which is often referred to as “sacred yogic sleep", your body is laying down while your consciousness begins to explore new states of expansion and awareness. Experiencing the teaching of this ancient practice opens the heart and mind to understanding the vastness of consciousness in new dimensions.

During this 40-hour Yoga Nidra Teacher Training, you will learn the basic teachings of the practice, explore different styles and study sacred texts. In addition to learning about various traditional Yoga Nidra techniques such as the Himalayan Masters or Bihar School, you will be introduced to other styles such as I AM Yoga Nidra, iRest and Divine Sleep.

You will closely work with a Sankalpa (a spiritual intention) that will evolve and transform in the process of the time shared together. You will also learn about the science behind Yoga Nidra, the influence of the Koshas (5 bodies) on the practice, and the benefits that Yoga Nidra has on overall health, the nervous system, and sleeping patterns.

This training is not only about learning a new meditation technique, it is also an exploration and expansion of your inborn potential — it calls you into being truly yourself while stepping into your unique light. You will leave the training with pre-made Yoga Nidra scripts as well learn to create them yourself.

You will be guided on how to create a Yoga Nidra Practice throughout your training so upon completion, you will be able to create and teach a sample Yoga Nidra Practice. A written self-reflection will be required.
