WELCOME & NAMASTE

This Yoga Nidra is meant to sooth your nervous system and allow you to connect to the element of water.


In this 40 Minute Yoga Nidra, Ally Boothroyd will guide you through a relaxation and visualization for the element of water (jala), the yin energy of chandra (the moon). This is helpful for pitta dosa, and soothe pitta elevation (fire/water element elevation). A gentle ocean wave visualization will calm, ground and balance pitta, sooth fire, anger, irritation nourish the prana maya kosha (energetic body) and invigorate svadisthana chakra. Yoga Nidra is a form of meditation that helps with insomnia, anxiety, stress, adrenal fatigue, ptsd and so much more. This scan takes you through the whole body, systematically relaxing every part of your being.

Yoga Nidra translates as psychic sleep and is a systematic method of inducing physical, mental and emotional relaxation, while maintaining awareness at deeper levels.Close your eyes and allow yourself to be guided into deep relaxation.


Scientific research has demonstrated that restorative power of just one hour of Yoga Nidra is equal to 4 hours of healthy sleep. Tension and anxiety melt away with a profound experience of muscular, mental and emotional relaxation. Yoga Nidra is a state of receptivity and creativity, blissfully rejuvenating and restorative practice that will guide you into inner calm and a state of ease and relaxation.

"Ally and Tiina have created an in-depth Yoga Nidra course, their knowledge, skill, enthusiasm and dedication to their craft, and to their students was clear throughout the course. The confidence they inspire in their students, not only through the knowledge they impart, but through praise, kindness and understanding, ensures each student has the tools to take this unique practice out into their communities. An amazing experience, both personally and professionally, I'm excited and proud to take everything from this course forward into my life and yoga career."
