Yoga Nidra | The Secret Of Inner Transformation 3
Yoga Nidra guided relaxation, instantly recharges, and brings incredible quietness and clarity within you. Yoga Nidra is a Sanskrit word that means Yogic sleep. The rest that you get through this power nap is much more powerful than sleep because the relaxation takes place consciously. In the deeper state of relaxation, this becomes a powerful tool for inner transformation.

Namaste.
Please get ready for yoga nidra.
Lie down on your back.
Body straight.
Head is aligned to the spinal column.
Legs slightly apart.
Arms a little away from the body.
Palms facing up.
Adjust your position so that you can practice yoga nidra without moving and with no physical discomfort.
Keep your eyes closed.
The practice of yoga nidra is the act of hearing and feeling.
These two are the most important factors for a better experience.
In yoga nidra,
You function on the level of awareness and the level of listening.
In dreams you have no control.
In yoga nidra,
You are the creator of the dream.
See to yourself mentally,
I will not sleep.
I shall only listen to the voice.
Repeat to yourself,
I will not sleep.
Become calm and steady.
Take a deep breath and as you breathe in,
Feel calmness spreading throughout the body.
And as you are breathing out,
Say to yourself,
I am relaxed.
Inhaling calmness spreading throughout the body.
Exhaling,
I am relaxed.
Continue with the deep breath.
Now shift your awareness to the outside environment.
Become aware of all the different sounds present here.
Without getting struck with any one particular sound,
Keep your awareness moving from sound to sound.
Observe one sound and then move to second sound.
Observe second sound and then move to third.
Like this,
Keep your awareness moving from sound to sound.
Become aware of the most distant sound that you can hear.
Searching for the most distant sounds and following them for a few seconds.
Gradually bring your attention to closer sounds.
To sounds outside this room.
And then to sounds inside this room.
Keep your awareness of this room.
Without opening your eyes,
Visualize the four walls,
The ceiling,
The floor,
Your body lying on the floor.
See your body lying on the floor.
Become aware of the existence of your physical body lying on the floor.
Total awareness of your body lying in perfect stillness.
Your body is lying on the floor.
Develop your awareness of all the physical meeting points between your body and the floor.
Now,
Become aware of the natural breath.
Become aware of the deep natural spontaneous breath.
Do not concentrate,
For this will interfere with the natural breathing process.
Keep on listening to me and know that you are breathing.
The practice of yoga nidra begins now.
Say mentally to yourself,
I am going to practice yoga nidra.
I will not sleep.
I am going to practice yoga nidra.
Time for sankalpa,
Time for resolve.
Setting a positive intention for the practice.
Please mentally state your resolve clearly with feeling and awareness three times now.
Now we begin body scan.
I will guide your awareness through the different parts of the body as quickly as possible.
Please repeat mentally the name of each body part after me and simultaneously become aware of that body part.
