A recording made early one morning in Venice during my recent travels. This is a simple Yoga Nidra practice that will take just 20 minutes and offers a settling and grounding, body relaxation and then an invitation to be with the sights and sounds of Venice as a way of balancing movement and stillness. I hope this Yoga Nidra practice offers a nourishing pause into your day, wherever you are in the world and however busy your life feels right now.

A Yoga Nidra for busy times or travel

This is a Yoga Nidra postcard from Bali. When I travel to a place that inspires me to feel a sense of interconnection and awareness I love to share that by recording a freestyle meditation amongst the background sounds of that place. In this case the recording comes from a morning in Bali with waves and birdsong in the background inviting you to tune into a sacred sense of space in your own day. With body and breath sensing you are taken on a journey to tune into the spaciousness of rest.

Ben Howard - Old Pine (Elkoe Remix)

A Yoga Nidra brought to you from a native forest clearing in the South Island of Aotearoa, New Zealand. Set yourself up comfortably in a seated or lying down position for a 35 minute deep relaxation to release tension and find ease with the help of the sounds and messages from the forest.

If we tune in every day to our physical, energetic, mental, emotional and bliss body to see what’s going we can begin to make appropriate actions and supportive responses in our daily lives. It’s like checking for our own personal weather report and then dressing for the day accordingly. 

You can use this ‘Kosha Check-in’ audio clip to connect with your layers right now. You may be guided by my voice initially but as you become more familiar with the sequence, sensations and curiosity you will be able to do this as an internal practice for your Self.

Constructive Rest is a an antidote to a stress filled day. Not only will it's regular practice help to reduce tension, it can relieve backpain, restore good posture, regulate your breath and balance out the 'doing' and 'being 'aspects of your nervous system. 

Set aside 20 minutes right now to restore yourself. A yoga mat and folded blanket set up as seen in the image accompanying this track are ideal, otherwise a rug or carpeted surface will be fine. You may also want a folded towel to place under the head and a blanket to cover you if it's cold. Make sure that you will remain undisturbed for the next 20mins and put your phone on silent!

Constructive Rest

This Yoga Nidra is a Body Sensing practice that includes sensing into the organ body as a way to invite the Rest and Digest response in your Nervous System. Use this practice to release tension, allow the relaxation response to kick in and fully inhabit the sensations that form the radiance that is your true body.
