Savasana (practice of surrendering)

This is the pose for Trauma-Informed Yoga Nidra, which saved my life. Lying in savasana and receiving a Yoga Nidra guided meditation brings me to deep states of non-doing that neutralizes excess stress and restores profound peace, relaxation and rejuvenation to the body. I set an intention for my practice that I repeat to myself as my consciousness drops from a Beta to a Theta or Delta brain-wave level. It is a deeply felt healing tool as I descend into deep states of consciousness and connect to Source. This internal healing allows me to navigate and move through life in a renewed way as something has shifted deep within. I lie in savasana for a forty-five-minute Yoga Nidra, which is the equivalent of three hours of sleep, and feel refreshed, balanced, whole and complete. A major Stress-Buster experience!  By combining Yoga Nidra with Jin Shin Jyutsu Self-Help, I have the perfect healing tool with no more sleep deprivation and feeling more centered ‘off the mat’.
