Yoga Nidra Workshop @ Chelsea Piers Downtown Brooklyn
An hour practice with intro to Yoga Nidra and the opportunity to be guided into a conscious resting state of simply being and non-doing. In a deeply relaxed mind-body state (theta), mental processing falls away supporting stress reduction, enhancing capacity for cognitive function, focus, memory, creativity, and overall quality of sleep and wellbeing
“When awareness is separate and distinct from mental activity,
when waking, dream and deep sleep pass like clouds,
yet awareness of Self remains,
this is the experience of total relaxation…
That is why, in tantra,
yoga nidra is said to be the doorway to Samadhi.”[1]
- Swami Satyananda

Gentle, warming hatha/standing poses focused on grounding and stability
Restorative & therapeutic postures to release tension and invite calm
