With headphones at a lower volume the live recording tone settles into the softness of the music, evoking a transportive ambiance with the practice’s healing flow. Thank you, Cathy!

Loved the sound of Cathy’s voice so calming and soothing. It felt like I was listening to a story as I was guided through this Nidra. I loved the sankalpa, made it my intention for this week and through the summer. I practiced this Nidra on the morning of the summer solstice, perfect timing. Thank you. 🙏
