Yoga Nidra To Strengthen Your Breath

Yoga Nidra translates into English as “yogic sleep,” yet this does not tell us all that much. Yoga Nidra refers to both a state of consciousness - one that is different from the waking, dreaming, and deep sleep states - as well as different styles of guided meditations that allows us to begin to consciously gain access to this state.

These meditations themselves are a specific sequence of relaxation, meditation, and mindfulness techniques that help the body, mind, and emotions to slowly and gently become more still and silent.

This particular yoga nidra is based on the Amrit style of yoga nidra, and its goal is to help strengthen our breath. We will go over different breath control and breath awareness exercises that will aid us in breathing more deeply in order to regulate our nervous system. This type of breathwork is gentle, yet powerful.
