Welcome yogis to this yoga nidra meditation for your healing sleep and deepest rejuvenation.
My name is Sonya and I'm so happy you have joined me here in this meditation haven,
Your space to breathe into bliss.
Yoga Nidra is the ultimate healing consciousness,
Creating for you the sacred state of deep rejuvenation enjoyed by ancient yogis.
And now gently close your eyes as you more comfortably ease in to this consciousness exploration.
During this calming process of Nidra,
Which is Sanskrit for sleep,
You will enjoy holistic yogic healing of your mind,
Body and spirit,
Replenishing in every way you wish along this blissful journey within.
So as we commence this yogic meditation,
First stretch out your body into its ideal position of comfort for you.
You may wish to lie on your back in Shavasana with your palms facing the sky,
Or relax your vessel in any manner which feels best for you.
Simply ask yourself,
Could you make any minor adjustments to be even slightly more comfortable in order to relax deeper and deeper into this healing practice.
And along this guided experience,
At any time you may invite the thinking mind or the externalised mind to begin to relax.
And you may wish to ease your brow,
Relax the little muscles around your eyes and unlock your jaw.
As you replenish here on a more subtle level,
You are right now opening the channels for all healing energies to flow,
Enabling the prana,
The life force,
To circulate throughout your being.
And now begin to breathe a little more deeply here,
Breathing nourishing air in through your nose,
Filling your lungs,
And now allowing that air to flow out.
Relax your core.
Drop your diaphragm down and simply inhale and exhale with ease.
With your pure awareness,
Invite this elixir of life,
This breath,
To cleanse you more and more with every new inhalation.
And you may sense you are starting to enjoy being in your own energy field,
Relaxing deeper and deeper into the safe space of this velvety darkness.
Feel and acknowledge any places in your body or in your awareness which may be harbouring tension or worries.
Feel and acknowledge these unwanted energies within the deep space of your awareness.
Starting to breathe all tensions or worries down and out through your feet.
Because as you do this,
Within this grand spaciousness,
They will release and transform with time.
Resolving away with every healing breath.
Now rest awareness at your heart,
Feeling every part of you melting into coherence with the love vibration of your heart space.
Each time you exhale,
You are shedding a layer and surrendering to this blissful,
All-pervading heart energy.
As though you could shed a layer or drop down a layer with every out-breath.
Relaxing releasing,
Letting go.
Surrendering allowing,
Replenishing here in the wisdom and love of your heart chakra.
And in the rejuvenating tradition of the ancient yogis,
Now guide your awareness to various parts of the physical form.
As I say the name,
Feel into and acknowledge each part with your consciousness.
You may like to echo each part's name in the sacred chamber of your mind.

Feel the divine energy of your auric field glowing with vitality as it tapers off into the deep spaciousness around you.

Left and right sides simultaneously.
Both sides of the body.
Spinal column from the tailbone all the way up into the neck.
Whole spinal column.
Whole of the back of the body.
The entire front body.
Whole body integrated as one.
Now let your awareness sink even deeper.
Feel the skin.
And go beneath the skin.
Awareness internally.
Feeling the insulating tissues.
Muscles melting into rest.
All of the organs committed to relax.
And go deeper still into bones.
Bone marrow.
And I invite you to go further still onto a cellular level.
Becoming aware of the cells pulsing with life.
And feel the cells humming and glowing with their pure vitality.
Like a starscape of brilliant life energy.
Every cell rejuvenating here.
Replenishing in pure source energy.
Every individual cell integrates into a cosmic array of sacred perfection.
Rest here in your divinity.
Your wholeness.
Sensing on a subtle level the cosmic energy of your soul.
In this relaxing,
Replenishing,
Living,
Breathing vessel.
Breathe and acknowledge your divine alignment.
Feeling gratitude into each and every cell.
Resonating with sheer bliss.
Breathing into bliss.
Breathing and breathing.
Breathing and healing.
And in this healing state of relaxation,
Bring your mind to your inner personal goal that you currently wish to achieve in your life.
Be aware of what this looks like to you in your mind's eye.
In the yogic tradition,
This is called a sankalpa,
An intention or resolve.
Deep in the mind,
There is an image of what this looks like.
Feeling that it is absolutely possible for you to have this,
And at this primal level,
There's not a past,
Present or future.
There just is.
Think of bringing that into your life right now,
That you have this already.
Feel in the heart space behind the sternum and how much you are resonating with this intention.
And now mentally repeating this sankalpa,
This resolve,
Three times.
And now cast it out to the all pervading energies of the universe to be made manifest.
And now shift your awareness to body weight as you melt into the surface beneath you.
Feel the weight of the body and arouse the feeling or the memory now of the body heavy.
Mother Earth always supporting the heaviness of the body.
And now create the opposite sensation.
Body is light,
Floating,
Weightless.
So light,
Ethereal and free.
Father sky always supporting the lightness of the spirit.
Become aware of your third eye vision.
Looking into the back of the eyelids and becoming aware that you can still see.
And that there is vision in the mind itself.
As we receive intuitive information either as an idea or an inner vision.
On the screen of the consciousness known as chitta kasha.
Or we might just know it in our minds eye as an idea.
Be aware if you receive information in this way,
Inner knowing,
Your intuition.
Because as you enter this dream like state,
Perhaps there is a divine message for you.
Like an image or film playing out on chitta kasha on the screen of your consciousness.
And your deeper awareness reveals what healing means for you at this very moment.
Because you intuitively sense which spaces in your aura,
In your being are seeking light,
Love,
Guidance,
Healing and rejuvenation.
And so as you rest and receive these visions,
Simply relax and allow these yogic healing visions to flow to you with ease.
For you and I replenishing in every way you wish.
Visualise and see any spaces in your aura,
Cleansing and filling,
Mending and healing.
Until your aura is seamlessly glowing like an orb of pure radiance.
Until you know you are now aligned to the highest healing vibrations of the eternal universe.
The wellspring from which all life flows.
This connection,
This resonance with source energy,
Right now permeates every layer of your being.
This healing energy hums throughout the glowing orb of your aura.
This healing energy hums with vitality,
Ease and clarity.
And with your divine vision,
You may see an abundance of purifying energy continues to fill your mind,
Your body and your soul.
Ever flowing,
Ever healing,
Ever replenishing you,
Now and always.
And you simply rest back here,
Appreciating and allowing this wellspring of energy flowing to you from the divine.
And in this sacred state of consciousness,
Cosmic wisdom now communicates as images,
As feelings,
As visions,
As intuitive ideas and continues deeper,
Right here and now.
And now you may drift off and continue deeper and deeper into the dream consciousness.
And let go into the eternal love being which you are.
Because you are enough and you are infinitely worthy and deserving of all splendour,
All happiness,
All health,
All love,
Prosperity and all deep,
Complete contentment.
Simply enjoy this healing state of alchemy,
Of rejuvenation for as long as you wish.
You're moving deeper,
Shifting deeper into your deepest,
Sacred,
Healing sleep.
Namaste.
