Yoga Nidra With Nadi Shodhana

We begin in the physical body (annamaya kosha) with our awareness. We then move through the energy body (prana-maya kosha) using a version of nadi shodhana. We move through the thought body (manomaya kosha) using the counting of our breath to focus our awareness. We move through the intellect/conscience body (vijnanamaya kosha) using rotation of consciousness. We then rest in the bliss body (anandamaya kosha).
Yoga Nidra has been shown to calm the sympathetic nervous system (fight-or-flight). It has also been shown to activate the pineal gland to release the powerful antioxidant melatonin which can help manage blood pressure, cortisol levels, immune function, and induce sleep. A recent study showed that yoga nidra is effective in reducing both the cognitive and physiological symptoms of anxiety and stress.
Practice inspired by Morven Hamilton.

Lovely and thoughtfully done yoga nidra - although I cannot honestly comment on the end because I was blissfully asleep. Thank you, seriously. Well done.

I really enjoyed this yoga nidra, especially starting with the nado shodhana practice and the extended time of silence toward the end.

A really special yoga nidra, different from anything else I’ve heard on this app. It put me into a place of deep relaxation and parasympathetic response.

Very nice way to go to sleep. I'm glad that this meditation found me last night. I don't remember hearing the end of this meditation. Thank you very much. Have a wonderful day 🙏 ❤️ 🙂

Beautiful blending of gentle sound, guidance, tone of voice and support. Thank you. Namaste
