Join me for a seated practice of box breathing - a powerful gateway to calm. This is a newly edited version of a previous episode that was taken down by Spotify due to the music included making it read too much as a music track and not like a true podcast episode. I've left the music out, and kept the originally intended script, with kinder timing for the breath counts, hopefully making it a more accessible practice.
Welcome back to the in-between state of yoga nidra. This practice is intended to create space for healing, of body, mind and spirit - by accessing the body's innate wisdom, and the natural intelligent process that is already occurring at every moment in the body. We explore a healing visualisation and some gentle bell sounds are used during the practice. Please let me know your thoughts and any feedback, I'd love to hear how you experienced this practice.
In honour of slow mornings, of grounding and centring, this practice is intended to support you in creating a stronger energy body and helping to reduce a feeling of being easily drained and burnt out. With repeated practice, you might find you feel the sanctuary within yourself throughout your days, and those around you sense and be inspired by your quiet strength and calm. In tending to ourselves, we become a healing presence to others. Offered with deepest love and reverence for all of our healing, may each of us contribute to the world becoming a better place for all sentient beings.
Welcome back to the in-between state. This practice is in the structure taught and recommended by Uma Dinsmore-Tuli, whom is a constant reference point for me in the creation of healing, gentle yoga nidra practices. You can learn more about her here: https://www.yoganidranetwork.org/.
This is a seated to lying down practice that includes Chandra Bhedana pranayama, or moon-piercing breath. It is intended to connect with the lunar channel in the body, known in the subtle anatomy of yoga as Iḍā nāḍi.
