Nidrā Yoga
Registration
Calendar
This course is taught in English.
Style
Nidrā Yoga
In Nidrā Yoga, we consciously relax the muscles, organs, bones, sense organs (eyes, ears...), the process of sensing (vision, hearing...), and the various functions of the mind to to come into a field of consciousness where the sense of time, space and Ego all dissolve, and there is nothing left but the experience of oneness. It is very psychologically purifying. The normal ups and downs of life begin to affect us less and less as we attain a joyful equanimity. Aside from relaxation, Nidrā yoga also involves concentration practices to find the balance between relaxation and concentration to trigger this super-conscious state. More details

What to bring:
There are men and women's changing rooms at this location. Wear comfortable clothing to relax in that does not restrict your breathing at the waist. Since you will be lying on the floor a long time, please bring something thicker than a yoga mat (perhaps a yoga mat and a blanket). There are some yoga mats here to borrow, but not enough for all. Finally, a blanket to cover yourself during the long relaxation practice. If you are more than 10 minutes late, it is requested not to come so as not disturb the delicate state of consciousness that arises when the relaxation practice is in progress.
