Yoga Nidra is a specialized type of meditation that transcends the normal relaxation in most meditations. The state of relaxation is reached by tuning inwards, away from outer experiences. If the consciousness can be separated from external awareness and from sleep, it becomes very powerful and can be applied in many ways, for example, to develop the memory, increase knowledge and creativity; or transform one’s nature.
As you go through this training be open to the ideas, history and science behind this sacred practice.
