Beschrijving
A space to rest and rejuvenate after Christmas. Surrender to relaxation in the slings and welcome the new year feeling fully refreshed. Establish a meaningful intention for your own well-being for 2023.
The most fundamental experience that Yoga Nidra has to offer any of us is how to rest and to re-learn how to be. ‘ James Reeves, Yoga Nidra expert and author of The Book of Rest.
Yoga Nidra is a deeply healing meditative state. It uncovers intuitive awareness, puts us in touch with feelings of unconditional peace and joy, and gives us the experience and understanding of our true nature.
By practising Yoga Nidra, we can learn to access a state somewhere between ‘asleep’ and ‘awake’. As we take time to rest, we learn to be with our whole self – our whole experience – with a dreamlike quality, more spacious than our thinking mind. Rather than judging, choosing and refusing what we do and don’t like about ourselves and about life, we have the opportunity to be with ourselves in a new, more open, less judgmental way.
Benefits happen in stages. Some will happen right away while others will develop over time. Your physical, mental, and emotional well-being will improve during Yoga Nidra as your skills advance for handling stress. Your ability to calm restless thoughts and the capacity for clear thinking will grow. Decision making improves. Handling emotional distress becomes quicker and easier. What used to bother you starts fading away. Physical tension decreases, which balances the stress response (sympathetic nervous system) and the relaxation response (parasympathetic nervous system), resulting in better health. As tight muscles relax, function, flexibility, circulation, and joint health often improve.
Brain wave states experienced during Yoga Nidra are also the brain wave states of sleeping, the reason why it is said that an hour of effective Yoga Nidra approximates four hours of typical sleep!
Adults of all ages and abilities welcome! No yoga experience necessary as this is not a very physical class. Session will be in English.
This session is ideal for people experiencing stress, anxiety or insomnia. The session will be led by Irene, a psychologist and insomnia therapist.
This session is not suitable for people currently having difficulties with:
- psychosis/dissociation
-unmanaged epilepsy
-severe acid reflux
