Yoga in the Park - Yoga Nidra for Cultivating Inner Stillness
Hartman Reserve Nature Center, Black Hawk County
Sunday, April 14, 2024
Join Julia Andreini at Hartman Reserve Nature Center for a practice to connect with not only
your physical stillness, but a sense of inner stillness. This practice is
crafted using yoga and ayurvedic techniques to connect to an internal wisdom
and stillness that is truly always accessible to us, but can be difficult to
connect with due to the demands of every day life and our body and mind’s
natural tendency to get stuck in a state of DOING instead of BEING. 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 this experience is guided. All you have to do is arrive with comfortable clothes, a
yoga mat if you have one, 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!
