Yoga Nidra For Crown Chakra

Welcome to this yoga nidra for your crown chakra. The crown chakra, located at the crown or top of your head is your connection to a higher power, or your connection with all that there is. Indications of a blocked crown chakra may include feeling a lack of faith in something greater than yourself, or not trusting or being able to surrender to a higher power. In this practice you'll be gently guided through breath awareness, a body scan, and a guided meditation to help you connect with the abundant Universal flow where there is no beginning and no end. Namaste.

Welcome to this yoga nidra for your crown chakra.

My name is Amanda,

And I'm delighted to be practicing with you today.

If you haven't already,

You might give a listen to my other yoga nidra recordings for the first six chakras before practicing for this seventh crown chakra.

The crown chakra,

Located at the top of your head,

Is your connection to a higher power,

Or your connection to all that there is.

Indications of a blocked crown chakra may include feeling a lack of faith in something greater than yourself,

Or not trusting or not being able to surrender to a higher power.

Please give yourself as much time as you require to get settled in for this practice.

Ensure that you are as comfortable as you can be,

Lying on your back.

Let your feet rest hip distance apart.

Ensure that your spine is in alignment,

That your head and neck are resting comfortably on a pillow or on the ground beneath you.

Your shoulders are relaxed,

And your arms resting comfortably at your sides,

Palms facing up.

Feel free to bring in props to enhance your comfort,

Such as a bolster or a pillow under your knees for added support,

A blanket for warmth and comfort,

An eye pillow or covering to block out unwanted light.

Headphones for optimal listening,

And anything else that you would find supportive at this time.

If you have an amethyst,

Clear quartz,

Or moonstone crystal,

You might also choose to bring it in as well.

These are all common crystals associated with the crown chakra.

Let yourself get settled in,

And we'll begin the practice with closing down the eyes,

Finding comfort and safety in the darkness behind closed eyes.

Allow your breath to help unwind your body by deepening your inhale and elongating your exhale.

Notice tension beginning to ease in your body with each exhale.

All the little muscles stuck in tightness and rigidity are now starting to soften and relax.

Every part of you easing into stillness and peace.

Calm and relaxation.

Calm and relaxation.

You might also notice the edges of your body softening and releasing.

As you continue to breathe deeply,

Begin to silently repeat the seed sound or mantra for your crown chakra.

Ah.

Ah.

Ah.

Continue on your own for the next few moments.

You can release the mantra now,

And return your focus onto your breath.

On your next inhale,

Begin to count down from 18.

Visualize this space at the crown of your head.

Expanding wider and wider.

And now might you visualize a beautiful violet hue.

Streaming down from the universe.

Into this opening at the crown of your head.

And bring your awareness back to your breath.

On your next inhale.

Could you allow two sips of breath.

In through your nose.

And then exhale.

And then let it go through an open relaxed mouth.

It is now time to ever so gently.

Begin to awaken your senses.

You might begin by expanding your sense of hearing.

To other sounds in the room around you.

It might feel like a good time to slowly awaken your fingers and toes with gentle movement.

Perhaps you'll slowly roll onto one side.

As you continue to ever so gently.
