This episode is a gift for all who have asked for a “sample” meditation to relax the mind and body. Amy Denney, certified Holy Yoga instructor, returns as my guest. (You may remember Amy from Episode 5, where she led us in deep breathing exercises.) Amy shares her insight about “yoga nidra,” which is typically done lying down. This practice is not intended to put you to sleep, but to offer deep relaxation. The benefits of this practice are numerous and outlined in a wonderful article linked below. They include relief from stress, back pain, PTSD, rheumatoid arthritis, insomnia and tinnitus. Have patience with this one. There are periodic pauses as you breathe and concentrate on Amy’s prompts. The intention of this practice is peace, and who doesn’t need more of that these days? Enjoy!
