Yoga Nidra for Deep Rest - Prepping For the Holidays
Hartman Reserve Nature Center, Black Hawk County
Sunday, November 17, 2024
This
Yoga Nidra practice is crafted using gentle movement, pranayama, visualization,
and relaxation techniques to remind you how to slow the chaotic speed of the
mind and find deep rest. Give yourself a chance to rest prior to the
onset of the holidays, and use this practice as an anchor to get you through
the rest of the year!
Yoga nidra, considered both a practice and state of dreamless sleep, uses
systematic relaxation aiming to unify the physical body, mind, and energy in a
way that allows us to realize and reset the way we think, act, and experience
daily life.
Find meditation challenging? No problem. The majority of the experience is
guided. All you have to do is arrive with comfortable clothes, a yoga mat, a
blanket if you are easily chilled, and an open mind. This practice is typically
done laying on your back - if this is uncomfortable, it can also be done
seated. A rolled up bath towel or extra yoga mat is suggested for use behind
the knees, and those with neck and upper back pain might find a rolled up hand
towel comforting under the curve of the neck. If you're curious about any
possible physical modifications please don't hesitate to ask!
Limited to 20 attendees.
