Deep Relaxation


Yoga Nidra, also known as Yogi’s sleep is a POWERFUL way of gaining the greatest benefits of relaxation WITHOUT actually losing awareness. It is said that one hour of Yoga Nidra is equivalent to over 4 hours of sleep. it works so effectively on the mind that it is often called “psychic sleep”.

Yoga nidra is particularly effective during pregnancy for physical and mental relaxation as well as for childbirth preparation. More importantly, in the early weeks after birth when sleep is of poor quality or broken often, regular Yoga nidra is a “miraculous” way of resting to restore the body and mind.

As a therapeutic tool, Yoga nidra is included in women’s programs for managing asthma, high blood pressure, edema, cramping, PMS, fatigue, insomnia, stress management, constipation, endometriosis, leucorrhoea and sexual tension.

It is extremely useful in kicking off smoking, poor eating habits and even unsatisfactory relationships!!
