Yoga Nidra Teacher Training Certification Course

50 Hrs – Yoga Nidra Teacher Training Certification Course: The Art of Relaxation
What is Yoga Nidra?
Yoga Nidra is a practice to bring about a state of consciousness that’s in between wakefulness and sleep. The practice helps not only in inducing this very useful and relaxing state but also helps in lengthen this in-between state of consciousness. This state of mind can be used for various beneficial training. Yoga nidra is done by following verbal instructions while staying still in Savasana or sometimes in a seated asanas.
In this practice the body becomes completely relaxed, and there is awareness of the subtle aspects of body and beyond. This state of consciousness (yoga nidra) is different from meditation in which concentration on a single object is practiced. In Yoga nidra, the practitioner remains in a state of spontaneous light awareness and no focus what so ever. Yoga nidra is a pre-practice to Meditation. It has different objectives and works on different aspects as compared to Meditation. Yoga nidra is a practice of the senses and Meditation is a practice of the mental faculties.
Benefits of Yoga Nidra
Yoga Nidra is an ancient relaxation technique that can help you release stress and tension from your body & mind. It is also known as Yogic Sleep, and it involves entering a state of deep conscious sleep that allows you to purify the deep impressions or Samskaras that drive your actions. Yoga Nidra can not only help you relax, but it can also increase focus and mental clarity, access more significant potential in life, and conjure states of mind at will.
If you’re looking to improve your well-being and find some peace of mind in the midst of the hectic pace of modern life, then Yoga Nidra may be right for you. Our course, Yoga Nidra: The Art of Relaxation, will guide you through the authentic traditional Yoga Nidra and help you experience the full benefits of this powerful relaxation technique.
