This Friday daytime class offers us the opportunity to combine two powerful and complementary modalities in one go: 5Rhythms in our first hour, is to awaken, soften, and release all physical tension to arrive into our bodies through conscious movement and release. Yoga Nidra, in the second half of class, is to go into deeper relaxation and deeper access towards higher states of consciousness.
Please do bring a yoga mat, a blanket, head support and eye mask (if you have it) with you to class, to be comfrtable during the 45 minutes lie down for Yoga Nidra.
And come ready to complete your experinece by having a delicious lunch after class at Matcha Club wholesome cafe amidst a lush green environment.

And here is an excerpt from there: Yoga Nidra is a subtle, yet very powerful practice that can help us deal with every-day stress and triggers. But it can offer us so much more healing and growths, as the practice holds the potential to release deep-seated traumas and guide our awareness toward our most authentic self.
In the words of Swami Satyananda:
“It is a state in which you are neither asleep nor awake. If you fall asleep, it is not Yoga Nidra. If you remain awake, then it is also not Yoga Nidra. If dreams overtake you, it is not Yoga Nidra. Yoga Nidra is a state in which there is awareness of the conscious, subconscious and unconscious fields of your mind all at one time. It is a perfect therapy. It removes all psychological abnormalities and sanskaras, and helps you to become your normal, natural self.”
