Saturday, November 18, with John Campbell, 1:00pm-2:30pm, $30
at the Studio
Yoga Nidra is a meditation practice that dates back to the time of the Upanishads. Today, it is widely used both as meditation and as a therapeutic tool for PTSD, other psychological trauma and distress. Yoga Nidra is experiential and produces a state of deep relaxation, similar to sleep, in which we remain aware. From this place, we experience, notice and welcome the comings and goings of different aspects and layers of the self such as physical sensations, feelings, emotions, thoughts and beliefs. In Yoga Nidra, we are given the opportunity to feel past all these fluctuations and rest in the unchanging, peaceful, welcoming ground of our being.
John Campbell has been practising yoga at Esther Myers Yoga Studio for over 35 years and is a graduate of the EMYS Teacher Training Programme.
