eMag ~ Yoga Nidra & Prana Nidra

Yoga Nidra and Prana Nidra—two deeply restorative practices that help reduce stress, improve sleep, and balance energy. Whether you're looking for a quick reset, emotional healing, or a way to access deep relaxation, these techniques provide a powerful path to well-being.

We have released two new products that feature these practices. Both are suitable for all levels, from beginners to advanced:

1. Guided meditation trak: Yoga Nidra to Reduce Worry and Anxiety, and
2. Yoga Nidra and Prana Nidra Bundle containing three lectures, our collection of Yoga Nidra meditations, and Prana Nidra, a powerful guided healing meditation performed in the lying position. The bundle guides you progressively through increasingly subtle layers of relaxation and awareness.

The Yoga Nidra and Prana Nidra Bundle harnesses the profound potential of Yoga Nidra, one of the most potent relaxation meditative techniques available today.

It starts with a short Yoga Nidra focusing on body rotation. It finishes with a more advanced healing meditation that directs awareness to the deeper energies within the subtle layers of our body and mind. This meditation enables us to guide that subtle energy for deep healing.

The bundle includes our new Yoga Nidra to Reduce Worry and Anxiety. This practice weaves traditional Yoga Nidra with visualizations from the great master of hypnosis, Milton Erickson, specifically designed to address worry and anxiety. This powerful combination helps us to develop the ability to generate positive emotional states at will, providing practical tools for emotional regulation in daily life. It guides you to manage your emotions better, particularly distressing emotions associated with traumatic memories.

These practices are designed to be accessible and beneficial for everyone, regardless of prior experience with meditation or yoga. They are designed to be practiced lying down in a comfortable position, making them suitable for all physical conditions.

This month, we invite you to explore these powerful practices with us.

Lie down, relax, heal, and become enlightened.

Podcast

Evoking Emotions in Yoga Nidra

This podcast episode describes the benefits of the practice of Yoga Nidra to Reduce Worry and Anxiety. This practice weaves traditional Yoga Nidra with visualizations from Milton Erickson, the great master of hypnosis. It is specifically designed to address worry and anxiety.

This powerful combination of Eastern and Western healing approaches helps you develop the ability to generate positive emotional states at will, providing practical tools for emotional regulation in daily life.

Because emotional feelings have a powerful impact on us, the ability to remain grounded, aware, and centered while facing challenging situations requires practice. It is best to start this process by meditating on contrasting sensations, both pleasant and unpleasant, and then moving on to pleasant and unpleasant emotions. This is what you will learn in this Yoga Nidra practice.

The systematic exploration of contrasting physical sensations, such as hot and cold, heavy and light,  and contrasting emotions in Yoga Nidra serves several important purposes in promoting relaxation and emotional well-being. We are learning to safely experience the full spectrum of feelings without being overwhelmed.

Reflection  

"Yoga Nidra means psychic sleep. It means to remain conscious as you dive deep into the usually unconscious layers of your being. While normal sleep only rests the body, Yoga Nidra brings about complete rest of the body, mind, and spirit."

Here are 5 reflection points to consider as you move through the month.

1. Am I struggling to calm an overactive mind, and do I sense that something beyond simple relaxation techniques is needed?
2. Am I currently experiencing high levels of stress, anxiety, or physical exhaustion that aren't improving through conventional rest or self-care?
3. Am I recovering from an illness or surgery and noticing that my body or mind still feels tense or depleted despite the usual recovery process?
4. Do I feel an inner longing or curiosity to connect more deeply with myself beyond just coping with day-to-day stress?
5. Do I want to explore practices that are not only restful but may also help me tap into subtle energies for healing or spiritual growth.
