Yoga Nidra, which means "yogic sleep" is a meditation that invites the practitioner to lay down and listen as she is guided through relaxation, a body scan and imagery with the intention to deeply relax the body, rest the busy mind and drop into a profoundly healing state. Please enjoy this version customized for the season of spring any time you need a refresh.

Your first of two yearly mini-retreats in Vibrancy & Tranquility Daily explores the spring themes of renewing and clearing our outer and inner spaces. Sample cleansing breath, rejuvenating movement, meditation and reflection about how spring is emerging in you. Includes a deluxe guided restorative reclined meditation because enhancing our energy also requires productive rest.

A 60 minute moderate experience with an invitation to focus on a heart-based quality like acceptance for another or self, empathy, compassion and love as a means of balancing the mind and its tendency for ceaseless chatter. The breath technique and sequence offered is meant as an embodiment of growing these qualities through our practice.
