What is a Yoga Nidra? 

​

Yoga Nidra, also known as the Yogic Sleep, is a state of deep relaxation where the body is completely relaxed yet the mind is wide awake and we become aware of our inner world. We access our subconscious mind and use this state to implant positive thinking patterns, release bad habits, bring a quality into our life that we desire, heal an ailment in our body or advance our spiritual journey. The tool how we plant this seed to grow in the subconscious is the Sankalpha. The Sankalpha, which means resolution or affirmation, is an intent, an inner conviction, which reaches the depths of the subconscious where it becomes a reality. It must be something very important for us.
