Hey I am Niamh, I welcome you to this Yoga Nidra for Rudaya meditation. I invite you to be guided effortlessly by my voice, To profoundly relax the body, To merge with your heart where you can bask in the joy of coming back home. You might prepare your cozy Nidra cocoon now by laying down either in a sweet supine position or a lounging alternative, Using blankets, Cushions or bolsters that bring more comfort and ease to the physical body. If it's daylight you might like to wear a blindfold or draw the curtains and then take a few moments to adjust the head, Shoulders, The arms and legs. Could you sink more into the ground beneath you, Allowing your body to be held and supported by the earth below and then closing your eyes. This journey of deep restorative rest takes you beneath the layers along the way for total heart immersion. So there's nothing to do but listen, Becoming more receptive and more porous to light up the brain's frequency, Stimulating strong latent mental potential to induce the brain's rhythms to synchronize with the rhythmic pulse of the heart. Just as the subtle force of electricity travels through wires to light up many beautiful things, The heart imparts sentiments to the senses. We'll begin now by becoming more interested in sensory sensations while remaining in stillness. Turn inward behind closed eyes, Soften away from the outside to inside, Softening your brows and temples to relax and become an inner seer. Allow your awareness to float to the chest, Center inside the chest, Heart lighting up the room of your being. Notice what you notice, Perhaps the joy and intimacy of coming back home in the heart, Being in the here and now, Saturating in the present moment, Nirvana kaya, Imagining the breathing cycles to slow down naturally, The breathing to become very light. Let there be short pauses of around one second after inhalation and after exhalation, Awareness of gaps between thoughts, The background of stillness of your being, Your heart a jewel that shines and emanates deep appreciation and love. Your heart mirrors generosity, Kindness and gratitude and flows reciprocally. What would your sankalpa be if you could sense your heart's truth? What would it be? What truth lights up for you? It might be something like I am peace, Joy and love or I am full of light or perhaps you are working with a sankalpa. You can repeat that now mentally three times. Could you perceive the body being more and more ethereal, Full of light, Love, More receptive and translucent, Charged with divine attributes of freedom and bliss, Samarasa. As we rotate attention in the body now, Might you imagine that light of consciousness to light up all the pathways and junctions of the subtle body, To light up the whole of your being. From one point to the next, Create a stream of light flowing, Starting with your mouth, Feeling sensation within your mouth, Roof of your mouth, The tip of your tongue, The root of your tongue, Inner

room, And of the blue sky above just imagining, Fluffy clouds, A meadow full of wildflowers, Butterflies fluttering, Rolling hills, A rain forest, A blue mill pond, A pink flamingo a warm breeze, A sandy beach, Your feet on the earth, Golden reeds, The sand between your toes, Gentle waves, A white lotus flower beneath your feet a shimmering ocean beneath the sun, The spaciousness, The vast

body, And perhaps you could return to this every day to emanate even more a deep appreciation and love, A generosity, Kindness and gratitude you might like to gently move your toes now and fingers and
