Welcome to this Yoga Nidra brought to you by Soul Matters Ireland.
As you settle into your Nidra nest for your practice,
Remember this is your sacred space of rest.
So ensure to create a deeply supportive Nidra nest so that you may rest deeply.
Placing pillows gently and lovingly under your head,
Under your knees or perhaps even under your ankles so that you can cushion the parts of your body that need extra support.
Placing a blanket over your body and an eye mask or something to cover your eyes so that you can retreat from the light of the day and enter the stillness of the dark for the next few minutes.
The deep nurturing darkness as you ensure you are in extreme comfort as you tend to the needs of your body at this time.
So make any final adjustments and then let your body sink into the cocoon of your Nidra nest.
Then take a few deep grounding breaths,
Breathing all the way down into your belly as you breathe in.
Feeling your belly expand with your breath and as you breathe out,
Release your breath with a long sigh through your mouth.
As you notice the expansion of your belly with your in-breath and the contraction with your out-breath.
Let yourself sigh deeply,
Blow out everything you need to release so that you can remain in optimum comfort for your practice as you let your body sink deeper into your Nidra nest with each out-breath,
Each sigh,
Each release.
Snuggling in to the comfort,
The cocoon as your Nidra nest envelops your whole body.
Receiving the divinity of your breath as you breathe in and release whatever you need to release as you breathe out.
As you let yourself remain in the pure presence of deep nurturing rest.
As your nest grows around you with a warm glowing light of the divine as you remain pinned in place by the sacred pole of your spine.
The vibrating light of your spine keeping you centered in your nest,
The light of the divine protection to allow you to rest deeply.
Deeply as you let the warmth of divine glowing light seep into every part of your body so that your cells light up with the divine glow.
Your blood flows with divine glow and your skin is blanketed in the divine glow.
Your whole body enveloped in divine glow.
And this is where we begin the practice of Yoga Nidra.
As you set your Sankalpa for your practice today.
Your truth vow for your practice.
The vow you make intentionally to yourself as you rest today.
Rest in the remembrance of who you are as you return to rhythm and reclaim your right to rest.
As you repeat your Sankalpa three times now.
If you are new to Sankalpa,
You may like to repeat,
I am worthy of rest.
Three times.
Then release your Sankalpa as you let it settle in your heart,
Your higher mind.
As you allow divine pure love to envelop it.
As you feel the vibration of your Sankalpa expand and contract with the expansion of your heartbeat and the contraction of your heartbeat.
The receiving of your Sankalpa and the releasing of your Sankalpa.
Your heart is the central chakra in your body.
The central connection to the divine.
Where your lower chakras and your upper chakras meet.
Your heart,
The portal to unconditional love and compassion.
Opening the portal of your heart to allow your Sankalpa enter and be wrapped in the warm tender light glowing from your sacred heart.
We will journey through a rotation of consciousness body scan through your whole chakra system.
The vibrational energetic frequency of each chakra as you allow the intention of your Sankalpa flow into each chakra and let it be ignited with the energy.
As you start by bringing your breath all the way down into your root chakra located at the base of your spine.
The direction of north.
The element is earth connected with winter,
The darkness,
The death that leads to rebirth.
As you let your breath flow all the way down into your root as it opens the portal of your root and the gateway into the earth.
Rooting down into the earth.
Wrapping it with a vibrational glow of red.
The color of your root chakra.
The energetic frequency of red.
Vibrating with the heart of the divine mother.
The earth.
The heart of the earth.
Deeply rooted.
Deeply connected.
Deeply grounded.
With the sacred earth as the light from the root flows from the earth and into your sacred chakra.
The direction of the sacral is the west.
The element is water.
The flow,
The letting go of the element of water.
Connected with autumn.
Your center of creative life force.
The portal to your creative joy and pleasure.
As you open the gateway to your abode,
Your home.
Flowing through this portal to allow the creative life force wrap its magic around your sacred vow.
With the vibrational light of orange.
The energetic frequency of your sacral chakra.
Flowing with creative joy,
Pleasure and sacred sexuality.
As you breathe deeply into your sacral chakra.

The gateway to your divine power.
That ignites with yellow solar light.
The light of the divine masculine sun.
Shining brightly and enveloping your solar plexus with sacred light.
Breathing deeply into your solar plexus.
Feeling the expansion and contraction of your sacred solar power.
Receiving and releasing.
As the light flows up to your heart center.

A garden of green light.
Energetically shines.

The four directions and the four elements have now been ignited.
The energy of each direction ignited into your sankalpa.
Shards of divine crystalline light shine from your pure heart up into the center of your throat.
The clearing house for the higher consciousness.
As the lower chakras are now synthesized here in the throat.
The place of the known and the unknown.
Here you transcend to the upper chakras.
As the light flows to the top three chakras.
To open the energy of above.
As the light flows up to your throat.
The portal to your authentic self.
The gateway to your truth.

As the divine light continues its journey up to your third eye.
The portal of your intuitive knowing.
The portal to your sacred gland.

The gateway to your deepest knowing.
Shining with the deep indigo blue.
The blue of the darkest deepest ocean.
Vibrating with the energetic pure frequency.
Breathing in and out.
Expanding and contracting.

And the energetic frequency of your being.
Connected with the divine mother below.
And the divine father above.
And you.
The divine being within.
Your whole being.
Vibrating energetically at the highest frequency.
Where your sankalpa has been ignited into each of your sacred centers.
The light of each portal has opened the gateway of infinite possibilities to your sankalpa.
The sacred and the divine.
Shining the light over your whole being.
You are the light.
You are the love.
You are the divine.
As the sacredness of your being vibrates at the highest frequency.
So your sankalpa will align for your highest good.
As you lie in your sacred nidra nest.
Feeling the expansion of your breath as you breathe in.
The contraction of your breath as you breathe out.
The expansion of your light into your being.
As you breathe in.
And the contraction of your light out into the world as you breathe out.
The contraction from your being out into the world.
Shining your light wherever you go.
This is the power of your light.
The power of your sankalpa.
The power of your intention.
As I leave you here to be in the stillness and silence of your divine light.
Your star being shining like the brightest star in the sky.
Your true north.
I will come back to get you in a while.
As my voice drifts back into your awareness.
Repeat your sankalpa three times now.
As you witness the change.
As you repeat it.
Breathe the light into it.
And then release it.
Surrender to the knowing that the energetic frequency has been ignited.
And the portals have been opened and walked through.
The change is happening.
The universe is working its magic with the divine mother and the divine father.
And this is where the practice of yoga nidra ends.
As you slowly bring some movement back into your body.
Rotate your hands.
Stretch your fingers.
Rotate your feet.
Stretch your toes.
Be really gentle with the sacred vessel of your body.
Move your head from side to side.
As you stretch your whole body.
Moving in whatever way feels right for you.
Stretching whatever feels right.
Be very gentle and intentional as you awaken slowly from this yoga nidra.
And then when you are ready.
Move over onto your left side.
Bring your knees up to your chest.
Cradle yourself in a tender loving embrace.
For a few rounds of breath.
Witnessing the energetic shift.
Breathing into your divine being.
Just feeling the expansion.
The contraction.
The receiving.
The releasing.
The ebbing.
The flowing.
Then when you are ready.
Keeping your eyes closed.
Move very very slowly up to a seated position.
Once you are seated.
Slowly open your eyes.
And come back into your sacred space.
Centre yourself by slowly looking around your space.
And landing back into your body,
Being,
Space.
May the sacred of your being be restored in beauty.
Be still and remember you are divine.
Be still and remember you are.
Be still and remember you.
Be still and remember.
Be still.
