Yoga Nidra Meditation
for the Immune System
Now, more than ever, we need to keep our nervous system balanced in order to have a strong and resilient immune system. Stress is known to suppress the immune system so I’m very inspired to share this 45min immunity boosting meditation with you.
The direct translation of Yoga Nidra is ‘yogic sleep’, however the applied understanding of this term is ‘a change of consciousness’ as you experience in sleep. It is a guided meditation practice suitable for the experienced meditator or beginner.
The style of Yoga Nidra I facilitate is called Integrative Restoration, or iRest, which is an immensely powerful technique for deep relaxation and healing for both mind and body.
The practice offers vast benefits by working to calm the nervous system, leading to reduced stress, greater focus and improved physical health. It has been developed to create a space to explore what you need in the moment as well as providing opportunity to ease and release the weight of heavy emotions. As a result, iRest has been found to be especially beneficial for people who have depression or post-traumatic stress.
