YOGA NIDRA is yoga without movement. Yoga nidra relaxes the body and the mind. It allows you to completely unwind and get in touch with your inner self. The benefits of yoga nidra are far reaching, and can be different for everyone. Yoga nidra is an ancient practice that is also referred to as yogic sleep or sleep with awareness that is done in a comfortable lying position. The goal of yoga nidra is full body relaxation and a deep meditative state that addresses physiological, neurological and subconscious needs using techniques including guided imagery, breathing, meditation, concentration and body scanning. The biggest benefit of yoga nidra is that anyone can do it. It doesn't involve physical expertise of any kind so even if you have a health condition, you can practice yoga nidra. Yoga nidra helps to quiet the overactive mind, promotes better sleep, eases anxiety and calms stress.
RESTORATIVE YOGA is used to create the 'relaxation response' or trigger the parasympathetic nervous system, which is responsible for balancing the body. By stimulating this system, you experience a lower heart rate and blood pressure. This also helps stimulate your immune and endocrine systems in healthy way. When you experience stress or feel overwhelmed, it impacts the parasympathetic nervous system that restores balance. To read more about the relaxation response and how beneficial it is to us, visit http://www.massgeneral.org/bhi/basics/rr.aspx We use bolsters, blocks, blankets & props to support the body in each pose.....a relaxing experience! Ayurvedic Pichu is an authentic traditional treatment for relieving stress & stiffness in your joints & body. A cotton pad soaked in a warm medicated oils is gently placed on the area of the 3rd eye and a warm cloth covering the forehead nestles you in a cocoon of comfort and bliss.
I hope to have the opportunity to see you on St John before my departure on May 23rd as I head to Bar Harbor, Maine once again blessed I as walk my path to spread the joy of yoga! It is my honor to practice with you and share my love & passion! Thank you for your continued support, love and inspiration!!!!
