(Online) Yoga Nidra + Sound Healing at Westgate
About the workshop
Yoga Nidra is a practice to develop deep inner awareness and experience deep states of relaxation within our physical and more subtle energy bodies. Yoga Nidra activates relaxation responses which improves functioning of the nervous and endocrine systems and balances the hemispheres of the brain. During this practice our brains enter different states of wave patterns that not only stimulate our intuition and creativity but allow us to rewrite thoughts and emotions. Yoga Nidra promotes restful sleep, reduces stress, supports the immune system and aids cellular healing. This practice paired with healing sounds is a powerful tool for healing.
In this unique Yoga Nidra practice Ashley will guide you into relaxation using her voice as well as the powerful healing sounds of gongs, drums, singing bowls and chimes. You may expect brief gentle movement and soothing breathing practices before the yoga Nidra and healing sound meditation. We will be laying down in relaxation most of the time. Please bring anything to support your comfort during meditation and relaxation. There is no experience required. This is a practice for the beginner and experienced practitioner.
