“No mats, no mirrors, no sweat. Life is hard enough. Yoga is not for achieving an athletic or aesthetic goal. It is a sacred opportunity to discover your Self.” – Kaya (Taken from www.yogawithkaya.com)
"Yoga practice is ultimately more a way of non doing than doing. It is more a way of undoing. It is doing less turning within letting go and surrendering. Yoga means discovering the healing essence that can draw us to a higher awareness naturally, in which we can let go of our stress, our anxiety, our negativity, our traumas, all these emotional factors that disturb us and keep us down. Inner yoga is that in which we move from activity to surrender and to cultivating the flow of grace". David Frawley
Guided Relaxation with Yoga Nidra
Guided Relaxation with Yoga Nidra, also known as ‘effortless relaxation or yogic rest’, takes you on an inner journey of deep rest, nourishment, healing, and relaxation. All you have to do is sit back or lie down and listen. This helps your unconscious mind open to new ways of thinking, healing, and fulfilling your conscious intentions by closing down all senses except the sense of hearing which allows the release of energy blocks- physical blocks that may be experienced as muscle tension, as well as the subtle emotional blocks that come as a result of unprocessed, suppressed or unwelcome emotions and experience.
Some of the benefits of Yoga Nidra are: Deep profound rest, peacefulness, reduced fatigue, more energy, reduced stress & anxiety, reduced body tensions, improve any healing, and more.
