Make sure that you're comfortable,
Maybe lying down in your bed or on the sofa.
Maybe you prefer to stay seated.
I hope that you do what feels right for you so that you can really relax and enjoy this yoga nidra session.
Now imagine that you're walking in the forest.
You feel your feet touch the ground and you smell that earthy scent of the forest,
Of the leaves,
The trees,
The ground.
And you feel that with every step you take,
You feel more grounded and more connected to the earth.
And then you stand still for a moment and you look at the beautiful trees around you and you feel their calming energy.
You feel your feet firmly on the ground,
That soft,
Soft ground of the forest.
And then you feel that from your feet roots are growing into the earth,
Thick,
Strong roots connecting you with the earth even more,
Deeper and deeper into the earth until they reach the center of the earth.
Then you feel the energy of the earth flowing up through your roots,
Clearing and cleansing your energy,
Helping you to let go of your day,
Helping you to let go of energies from other people,
From places you've been to,
From events,
Anything that you were carrying with you in your energy and that's not serving you.
It's being cleared and cleansed by the energy of the earth flowing through your entire body,
Touching every cell,
Releasing anything that is making you feel tired or heavy,
Anything that was making your energy feel heavy.
And the more this energy of the earth flows through your energy,
Through your body and the space around you,
The lighter you feel and the more grounded you feel with this earth energy flowing through you.
And then you are going to make your sankalpa,
A positive word,
Affirmation,
Intention,
Something that you would like to achieve,
Feel or experience and you repeat it in your head three times.
And then you go with your attention to the center of your forehead.
Maybe you are aware of a physical aspect,
Skin or bone or maybe more a feeling or sensation or consciousness.
Then you become aware of your throat,
A physical aspect or feeling,
Sensation or consciousness.
And then you go with your attention to your right shoulder,
Then your right elbow,
Your right wrist,
The top of your right thumb,
The top of your right index finger,
The top of your right middle finger,
The top of your right ring finger and the top of your right pinky,
Your right wrist,
Your right elbow,
Your right shoulder,
Your throat and your left shoulder,
Your left elbow,
Your left wrist,
The top of your left thumb,
The top of your left index finger,
The top of your left middle finger,
The top of your left ring finger and the top of your left pinky,
Your left wrist,
Your left elbow,
Left shoulder,
Your throat,
The point in the center of your chest,
Your heart chakra,
The right side of your chest,
The center of your chest,
The left side of your chest,
The center of your chest.
Feel the energy flow through your body,
Through all the points.
There's a flow of energy flowing through your body.
And then you go back to your Sankalpa,
Your positive word,
Affirmation,
Intention.
And you repeat it in your head three times.
And then you feel your feet on the soft ground of the forest again,
Feeling grounded and feeling that flow of energy through your body,
Feeling the energy of the trees surrounding you.
And when you are ready to come back to the here and now,
You slowly start to move a little with your hands and your feet,
Wiggling your toes,
Moving your fingers,
Slowly bringing yourself back to the space that you're in,
Becoming aware of your surroundings,
Feeling your body lying on your bed or sitting on your sofa,
Wherever you are,
And slowly move a little bit more,
Maybe stretching your whole body.
And when you are ready,
You can open your eyes.
Have a beautiful day or evening.
