Yoga Nidra Everyday Relaxation (With Music)

A relaxing yoga Nidra session that can be used for daily relaxation.
Yoga Nidra means Yogic Sleep. It is a state of conscious Deep Sleep.
In Meditation, you remain in the Waking state of consciousness, and gently focus the mind, while allowing thought patterns, emotions, sensations, and images to arise and go on. However, in Yoga Nidra, you leave the Waking state, go past the Dreaming state, and go to Deep Sleep, yet remain awake.
