Yoga Nidra and Meditation with Lina

Friday, Jul 10, 2015
7:30pm -> 9:00pm
Beirut Yoga Sivananda Center

Yoga nidra means psychic sleep. Sleep rests the body, but yoga nidra rests both the mind and body. When you are asleep, your consciousness sleeps in your astral body, but in yoga nidra your consciousness is awake within. Yoga nidra performs two beneficial functions. It removes fatigue and invigorates the body. The stresses and strains of daily life create tensions and these rob the mind of its serenity. Yoga nidra removes tensions and restores the elasticity of your mind.

How to practice Yoga Nidra? This practice is best learned at first through a teacher. Once the practitioner is comfortable in it, he or she may practice it regularly with the help of a CD.

Her classes are simple with detailed emphasis on proper body alignment in asana practices on one side to safely gain physical flexibility and strength, reduce pain, and age gracefully. And on the other side restoring the mind to simplicity and peace with practices such as pranayama, yoga nidra and meditation.
