Deep sleep, deep work
Yoga Nidra means Yogic Sleep—a state where you remain consciously aware while moving through the deepest layers of mind. Unlike meditation, which keeps you alert and focused, Yoga Nidra takes you past the waking state and past dreaming into deep sleep itself, yet you stay awake. Traditionally it's used to purify Samskaras, the deep impressions that drive karmic patterns.
Modern yoga culture often dilutes this practice into simple relaxation. This course honors the traditional depth, teaching you to approach Nidra patiently and let its profound effects unfold over time. The instruction comes from Swami Jnaneshvara, whose Yoga Nidra recordings have been the most popular in the world for over fifteen years.
Suited for practitioners ready to move beyond quick relaxation into genuine transformation.
About this course
Yoga Nidra means Yogic Sleep. It is a state of conscious Deep Sleep. In Meditation, you remain in the Waking state of consciousness, and gently focus the mind, while allowing thought patterns, emotions, sensations, and images to arise and go on. However, in Yoga Nidra, you leave the Waking state, go past the Dreaming state, and go to Deep Sleep, yet remain awake. While Yoga Nidra is a state that is very relaxing, it is also used by Yogis to purify the Samskaras, the deep impressions that are the driving force behind Karma.
In recent years it has become common to use the term "yoga nidra" to mean virtually any form of relaxation practice. However, Yoga Nidra is traditionally a profoundly deep practice that is refined over an extended period of time. In this course we will review this traditional perspective and teach you to patiently allow the amazing depth to be revealed over time.
Your presenter is Swami Jnaneshvara, whose famous Yoga Nidra CD has been the most popular in the world for over 15 years.
