In this special one hour class we will begin with a brief overview of the practice of Yoga Nidra (yogic sleep), moving into a guided Yoga Nidra experience, finishing with time for mediation and reflection. 
Yoga Nidra induces full-body relaxation and deep meditative state. It requires nothing of you but to lie down and listen and give yourself the gift of rest and renewal. It helps relief chronic stress patterns, deeper sleep and promote healing. One hour of Yoga Nidra is equal to three hours of normal sleep. 
Open to Everyone, no experience of yoga needed.

We call the kind of moment to moment awareness invoked by tuning into your breath and to every other aspect of your life MINDFULNESS. It is developed by purposefully paying attention in a non-judgmental way, to what is going on in your body and mind, and in the world around us. Staying in touch in this way from one moment to the next, this shift in awareness, may lead to seeing things somewhat differently, perhaps to feeling less stuck, or to a sense of having more options, more strength and more confidence in your possibilities, more wisdom…

The course aims to assist you in taking better care of yourself and in getting the most out of living. The majority of people completing the programme report lasting physical and psychological benefits including:

• An increased ability to relax
• Greater energy and enthusiasm for life
• Heightened self-confidence
• An increased ability to cope more effectively with both short and long-term stressful situations

The aim of the programme is to learn new ways to handle challenging physical sensations, feelings, moods or social interactions.
