Welcome,
I'm Kumari Skye.
I'll be your guide for this yoga ninja practice.
In case you're new.
To the right.
Yoga Nidra.
It is an effortless guided meditation that brings you into a deep state of rest and relaxation in a relatively short amount of time.
You'll want to get as comfortable as possible.
However that is for your body today right here right now.
Some of you might like to lay in bed.
Maybe it's bedtime where you're at.
Others may be taking a midday or afternoon rest.
Your body temperature naturally starts to decrease.
When you are moving into these slower brainwave states.
So therefore you might like to have a little covering.
And speaking of covering,
I really like covering eyes when I do yoga nidra.
You could try that if you've never tried that before.
Also note that I will be guiding you out of the practice.
But if you are using this for sleep,
Obviously,
You can just click off your app and drift into your deep rest of the night.
Go ahead and start to really settle in,
Even more closing down your eyes.
Going inward.
Inward.
To this space of peace and clarity that is innately there.
Will add all of the tensions of the day.
Just melt away.
Simply by listening.
Breathing.
And remaining aware of the guidance.
And we'll start to listen.
Notice if there's any sounds in your space.
If there's multiple sounds.
Go from sound to sound.
Maybe even noticing the sound of your own body.
The sound of your breathing.
Maybe even the sense of your own heartbeat.
Perhaps you can hear sounds within.
My spare.
Slide your ear.
Open even more.
Guiding awareness now to your physical body.
Take time to notice how your head and neck are resting.
Maybe even letting go into the surface your head and neck are resting upon.
Even more.
Now come to notice your upper back.
Notice all the places you're making contact with whatever you've chosen to rest on.
Perhaps feeling a little warmth between you and the surface.
Notice your arms and your hands and in the way they are resting.
Your hardworking fingers and hands.
Now totally still.
Relax.
Every little tiny muscle.
And tissue and the fingers and hands.
Relaxing.
Could you even feel an energy in the palms and the finger?
Now we'll take awareness to the hips and buttocks.
And again,
Feeling into the surface you're on.
Become aware of how your legs and feet are resting.
A bird's eye view of your body here.
Bird's eye view of your body simply resting back and letting go more and more into the surface.
Knowing it's always fine to make adjustments to your position.
Going to breathe to a count now.
We'll take a full inhale in for the count of three through the nose.
And a long slow exhale to the count of five with coming out the mouth.
You might think of it like blowing out through pursed lips.
Together.
Let's just take one.
Deep inhale.
Inhale 3 2 1 exhale 5 4 3 2 1 inhale 3 2 1 exhale 5 4 3 2 1 inhale 3 2 1 exhale 5 4 three,
Two,
One.
Three more times on your own.
Noticing the shift in your body and your mind already.
We'll welcome Asankalpa to the practice.
This is a sort of intention.
Some of you may be working with Hissankulpa from practice to practice.
But if you're not.
.
.
Can make one now or simply use this one.
I allow myself to rest deeply.
When you're ready,
Repeat your.
Special intention,
Sankalpa,
Three times in your mind.
Know that you're planting the seed of what you do desire.
The energy and intention of what's wanted.
Is powerful.
Follow my voice as I take you on a journey around the body.
The rotation of consciousness.
You can let your attention rest.
In each place that you hear me mention.
You might notice if you feel something there.
You can let it just be whatever it is.
We're starting at the very top of the head.
Your crown chakra.
And seeing the top of the head.

Feel the breath moving in and out of the nostril.
The breath moving in and out of the nostrils.
Can you sense the energy of the breath?
Imagine breathing only through the left nostril.
Only through the left nostril.
And now switch to imagine breathing only in and out the right nostril.
You Come back to feeling the breath equally between both nostrils.
Breathe in through the left nostril.
And out the right.
Simply imagining.
That this could be possible.
Isolating the left.

Up the body to the ground.
Exhaling down the body.
Back up again.
Sensing this wave of breath.
Moving up and down the body.
Breathing the breath.
And sensing the energy.
That moves up and down the body.
Allow the focus on the breath to dissipate.
Keep the sense of energy The whole body shimmering with life force energy.
