Yoga Nidra is a an effortless yet profound guided meditative experience. This practice guides you through centering, pranayama, statement of sankalpa, body scan, visualization, and closing. Enjoy the benefits of this deeply restorative practice while you learn skills to take 'off the mat' and into your life. While you can do this practice at any time of day, it was not specifically designed for sleep. Lastly, this is a 'low tech' recording so some ambient noises have not been edited out (mainly just a few times when my jacket made some subtle sounds).

While this practice is generally safe for many psychospiritual experiences, it does not replicate medical advice or working with a therapeutic practitioner. 

Thank you to Gaia Meditations for the music.

Hi, my name is Sarah. I am a yoga and meditation facilitator, I've been practicing and studying through different traditions since 2004 and teaching since 2019. This channel is where I'll share a variety of classes, practices, or my thoughts or interpretation of different topics or texts. I give these offerings with the intention of caring for each other, walking our paths in connection, and collective liberation. 

I do my best to keep my approach grounded in trauma-informed methods, yogic philosophy, and my own experiences of these practices. Please take what you like and leave the rest. Though I don't think you need to adopt any beliefs to benefit from the practices or experiences that you have, these practices and perspectives exist within a cultural context and a framework of ideas that I speak from and reference. Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions.

Grounding Yoga Nidra

Thank you so much for joining me in this meditation practice. This is a bhavana meditation practice (bhavana can mean 'to cultivate') to cultivate a sense of stability. It includes centering, body scan, pranayama, and closing. Please enjoy the benefits of this practice while you learn skills to take off the mat and into your life. 

While this practice is generally safe for many psychospiritual experiences, it does not replicate medical advice or working with a therapeutic practitioner.

This is a 'low tech' recording and some subtle background noises have not been edited out, mainly just birds and my refrigerator.

This practice offers methods of creating space in our lives and in our relationships with our selves to witness ourselves and inquire into what we find in the spaciousness. I hope you enjoy!

Creating Space

This is a yoga nidra practice that inquires into how we practice dignity, what it feels like in our bodies, and how that might support creating space for ourselves to feel, witness, and connect to ourselves and our lives with a sense of appreciation and respect. This version has no background sound, there is another version uploaded that has some birdsong and rain sounds I recorded in the jungle of Costa Rica. In the practice I offers some questions for inquiry, I will include them here in case you want to revisit them:

What could it be like to affirm your dignity for no other reason than because you exist, and because you exist as a part of the unfolding of life?
What if it is in being a part of the already happening unfolding of life that we would experience our dignity, not out of domination or subjugation?
What could this make possible for how you connect to your inner landscapes and selves? What could it make possible for connecting to what you care about, for engaging in reflection and accountability?

I would like to thank Elena Bower, Cole Arthur Riley, and Maria Macaya whose writings helped me in creating this practice, and all of the people who have carried these practices and traditions from India and elsewhere.
