Tanis Fishman is the founder of School of Sankalpa, a living school of contemplative and spiritual inquiry exploring consciousness, direct experience, meditation, the sacred, and the questions beneath how we understand reality. For more than twenty years, Tanis has studied, practiced, and taught within yoga, meditation, contemplative practice, and spiritual traditions. Yoga Nidra became one of the primary maps through which she explored consciousness. She spent many years studying its traditions, refining the precision of her guidance, training teachers, and creating the extensive library of practices you will find here on Insight Timer. Over time, her inquiry expanded beyond any single practice or spiritual framework. Today, her work includes meditation, Sankalpa, contemplative inquiry, shared field practice, retreat, sacred site work, and mentorship, alongside two questions that have followed her throughout her life: What is this? How do we know what is actually true? She is particularly interested in the relationship between direct experience and the meaning we give to what we experience, and in the spiritual maps through which we understand ourselves and reality. The Yoga Nidra recordings here remain part of the larger body of inquiry that continues through School of Sankalpa.

The wisdom and messaging in this one is so, so good. I do wish she would have slowed down on body rotation by a second but the embodiment experience was sublime.
