In this gently guided journey, you’ll be invited to:

• Prepare the body for stillness — find comfort and release through mindful positioning and a soft inward turn.
• Set your Sankalpa — choose a heartfelt intention to carry you through the practice and plant seeds of healing in the subconscious.
• Rotate awareness through the body — systematically relax every part of yourself to dissolve physical and mental tension.
• Attune to the breath — anchor your awareness in the subtle rhythm of your breathing, restoring your connection to safety and presence.
• Follow a symbolic visualization — drift through calming imagery—moonlight, forest, firelight—to ease the senses and prepare the mind for sleep.
• Sink into the threshold of rest — settle into a liminal space between waking and dreaming, where deep rest and true replenishment begin.

Whether you listen as a way to unwind before bed or to experience a profound nervous system reset, this Yoga Nidra is an invitation to surrender effort and receive the healing power of stillness.

✨ Ideal for those managing insomnia, stress, chronic fatigue, or anyone needing deep rest and inner quiet.
