Welcome to this guided yoga nidra session.
My name is Yogi Brian.
Find a comfortable place where you can lie down on your back,
A place where your body can remain still and your body can be comfortable so you can relax.
You can lie down on a yoga mat or a blanket.
Just find a place where you can lie down and keep your body straight,
Legs slightly apart,
Knees slightly bent,
And make a straight line with your body.
Palms either face up or face down.
Don't overthink it.
Just any place where your body can be still.
And adjust your body so you can be super comfortable because during the practice of yoga nidra,
There's no movement at all and your eyes will remain closed throughout.
So give yourself time to settle.
Give yourself time to relax.
And whenever you're ready,
Close your eyes.
And feel a sense of relaxation in the body,
Noticing your breath,
Observing your body,
And giving yourself permission to relax.
Let's take two deep breaths.
I'll lead you through it to relax.
Exhale all the air out of your body,
Out through the mouth,
Side out.
Now close your mouth.
Inhale deeply through the nose.
And exhale,
Side it out.
Let all the tension go.
Relax.
Again,
Close the mouth.
Inhale deeply through the nose.
And open the mouth,
Side it out.
Let all that tension go.
Close the mouth.
And just breathe your natural breath in and out through the nose.
When practicing yoga nidra,
Completely relax,
It's not a practice in concentration.
Just follow the instructions.
But if you miss a few,
It doesn't matter at all.
What is important is you keep listening to the sound of my voice and listen to the suggestions.
Yoga nidra is a scientific method.
Releases the threefold tensions,
Muscular,
Emotional,
And mental.
During yoga nidra,
You are functioning on hearing and awareness,
The only important thing is to follow my voice and breathe.
And you're already breathing,
You're doing a great job.
You'll develop a feeling of relaxation,
Like that feeling just before sleep.
If sleep does come,
Do not try to fight it.
But it's helpful to make a resolve during your practice.
Say to yourself,
I will not sleep.
I will remain awake during my practice.
I will not sleep.
I will remain awake during my practice.
Do not overanalyze the instructions,
Just follow with total intention and feeling.
If thoughts do come,
Don't worry.
Take a passive approach to restless thoughts.
Just let them come and go.
Don't try to fight them.
Just allow them to roll in and roll out.
Now allow yourself to fully relax.
Thinking about a feeling of inner relaxation.
Be aware of stillness.
Allow yourself to relax.
Feeling yourself three times silently,
I will relax.
Now become aware that you are practicing yoga nidra.
Allow yourself to practice.
Allow yourself to be in the moment.
Say to yourself silently,
I am aware I'm going to practice yoga nidra.
I am aware I'm going to practice yoga nidra.
Now the practice begins.
We begin with a resolve,
A sankalpa,
An intention.
When our minds are relaxed,
We are open to autosuggestion.
The sankalpa is a short positive statement in the present moment.
And we state it three times with awareness,
Feeling,
And passion.
The wording must be clear.
For example,
I am grateful in every moment.
Or I let go of what does not serve me.
Find a sankalpa for you.
Find an intention that you'd like to manifest.
I'll give you time.
And once you set your sankalpa,
There's no reason to change it.
Basically,
You're planting a seed in the subconscious mind.
Now say your sankalpa three times silently to yourself.
Now we come to the rotation of the mind to scan the body.
