Yoga Nidra is a form of guided meditation also known as “yogic sleep” or “effortless relaxation”. It’s usually practiced lying down. It is a powerful technique for controlling your body’s relaxation response. It can be as restorative as sleep, while you remain fully conscious. Yoga Nidra can help with restful sleep and insomnia, release tension and pain, help activate the relaxation response and improve the functioning of your nervous system and endocrine system, which affects your hormones, helps cells regenerate and repair, and helps decrease anxiety and improve your mood.
