this past weekend, I was recovering from a terrible fever, temp up to 102+ two days in a row. Chills like ice shooting through your body, and inferno when you finally get warm. And no sleeping position was comfortable. On the first night of my fever, a new YN just dropped on YT, and for the first time, I found out how yoga nidra could be more than just a practice for better rest. As I followed this meditation, I was finally able to lay with the pain and not in it, finding stillness and comfort as my fever tried to break. Here is the link to that YT. With all my ❤️ I wish everyone such an experience. Keep practicing. https://youtu.be/qsdO-J5-WN4?is=jM5qRhFpbzzstcZx

I invite you to join me in wishing @Ayla Nova a very happy birthday 🤍 Here's to the one who works nonstop so the rest of us can... rest. 🙂‍↕️🌙 Thank you for the love, generosity, and care you pour into this community and out into the world.

Ask a question below about anything Yoga Nidra/Nova Nidra related!

Tonight's new moon is traditionally a seed-planting moon... the darkest, quietest point before the next cycle of growth begins. It also marks something inside this community: we're moving from Flamekeeper season into Dream Weaver season. Comment your one-word intention for the next lunar cycle. I'll be doing the same. If The Flamekeeper is the mind that understands everything and still can't quite rest, The Dream Weaver is the layer just past it — the one who can see the life being created with clarity, and is learning to actually live inside it instead of just picturing it from a distance. Different state, same honest work. In yoga nidra we work with something called a sankalpa... a resolve planted in the deepest, most receptive state of rest, rather than forced through willpower in an ordinary waking state. Tonight is a good night to plant one. Over the next few weeks, we'll spend some time with what it means to be a Dream Weaver... whether that's you right now or not yet.

If you feel everything — if other people's moods follow you home, if a quiet day still leaves you wrung out — my newest Yoga Nidra was made for you. It speaks to the emotional body: the part of you that moves like the tide. A soft place to land while the waves move through you, with nothing to fix and nowhere your feelings have to go. Because the Tidal Heart is always learning: you are not the wave. you are the water. 🌊 🤍 Come rest with me → TIDAL HEARTS | 27 MIN
