Yoga Nidra and Saturday Sound Bath

Yoga Nidra, or “yogic sleep” is a guided, meditative practice that allows you to enter a deep, relaxation state while remaining awake. Yoga Nidra’s numerous benefits include stress reduction, balancing the nervous system, reducing physical pain, assisting in processing emotions, improving sleep, and inspiring personal insight. Simply rest comfortably in Savasana and allow my voice to guide you to a place of healing and relaxation. No prior experience necessary. Please wear comfortable clothes. Yoga Nidra is the Sanskrit term for yogic sleep. It is typically practiced in a reclining position, allowing the physical body to relax and the mind to clear. You are guided into deep relaxation in a warm, quiet space, usually covered by a blanket and an eye mask. This process of clearing your mind enables your nervous system to down-regulate, activating the parasympathetic nervous system. This transition facilitates the release of stress and anxiety. The practice of Yoga Nidra is designed to lead you into a state between sleep and wakefulness, where you observe your thoughts, body, and breath in the present moment. By doing this, we allow ourselves to restore as we shift from the sympathetic (fight or flight) to the parasympathetic (rest and digest) nervous system. Lindsey fell in love with yoga over a decade ago as an undergraduate student and has been practicing ever since. She earned her 200- hour yoga certification from Heaven Meets Earth in 2023 and is especially passionate about Yin and Yoga Nidra. Completing her teaching certification while healing from chronic pain opened her eyes to the mental and physical healing power of yoga and community. Lindsey aims to blend yoga with the mental health and meditation knowledge she gained as a former trauma therapist. Everyone needs and deserves a nurturing space to slow down, recharge, and restore - Lindsey is honored to create and hold that space for you and to be a part of your healing journey.
