Deeply relaxing yoga nidra practice. Your voice and pacing are perfect! Thank you so much for this 🪷

This brief "non-sleep deep rest" delivers on its promise : not unconsciousness, but a soothing of the nervous system. For napping, look for a longer session. For an unwinding of mental "busyness" --a break from overthinking, perhaps--this worked nicely for me.
