Product Description

Product Description

Yoga Nidra means 'Yogic Sleep'. It is a deep relaxation in which you leave the waking state, go past the dreaming state, and enter into the deep sleep state, while remaining fully awake and alert. This state of awareness is extremely beneficial, both for releasing stress, and for experiencing the joy of subtler spiritual explorations or experiences. The voice will systematically guide you to explore your physical body, then move through 61 specific points within the body, and then practice ascending breath awareness along the body and spine.Your attention will be brought to the space between the eyebrows, then to the throat, and finally to the heart centre, where you will go deep into stillness and silence, beyond the activities of the mind. Following the custom of the ancient sages, the depth of Yoga Nidra comes from inner awareness of the levels of your own self, including your body, breath, and the subtler mind, rather than diverting attention through music or inner fantasies. The approximate running time is 65 minutes.

Phoney nidra 7 Oct 2008
Format:Audio CD
I can only assume that the previous reviewer has no other experience of yoga nidra than this disappointing product. The rotation of consciousness through the body parts is far too slow, thus allowing the mind to wander and boredom to set in. The point of this phase of the practice is to take you into the alpha brain wave state which is unlikely to happen with this slow rotation.

There is no imaginary recreation of tactile and proprioceptor sensations to deepen the relaxation, neither is there visualisation of the chakra yantras to actualise and integrate the psychic centres. Even more amazingly there is no rapid flashing of images to stimulate the flow of unconscious material and yet another omission is the exploration of awareness.

The voice, probably intended to be relaxing, is merely dreary and British listeners may well find some of the pronunciation annoying.

There are far better yoga nidra CD's available. Better still buy Swami Satyananda's original book on the subject and record yourself reading some of the many scripts to be found in there until you find one just right for you.

Smiling now 16 July 2008
By Yogi
Format:Audio CD
The cd is just what you should expect from yoga nidra. The american voice is pleasant and slowly leads you into & thro' the experience. Its deeply relaxing and yoga nidra done well like this carries on with you after you've finished the cd. I think this cd is well worth a try. Highly recommended by a contented yogi.

Lovely Recording for Lucid Dreaming - Conscious Deep Sleep 11 Nov 2004
By Laura De Giorgio - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Audio CD|Amazon Verified Purchase
This recording has 5 tracks. The first one introduces you to Yoga Nidra - and the following tracks guide you through actual practice.

The guided meditations on this recording are entirely verbal - there is no music in the background.

The introduction is followed with a meditation which guides you into a state of deep relaxation.

The next track guides you through 61 points relaxation - guiding your awareness to 61 different points on your body.

Then follows the practice of ascending breath - inhalations and exhalations begin and end at different parts of your body - ultimately leading to leading the breath up your spine.

The last meditation guides your awareness to your "third eye" - awakening and opening it, going down to your throat chakra and then resting in your heart chakra. You are then guided into the state of emptiness.

The purpose of recording is not only to help you remain conscious while dreaming, but also to help purify your mind and emotions (your energy field) from emotional attachments - attaining a state of deep peace, purify and clarity.

Even though there is no music in the background, the voice is very relaxing and you may find yourself drifting into sleep while listening to it.

Deep Awareness 25 May 2004
By "firstchance" - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Audio CD
As an instructor of meditation, I found this practice profound in experience unlike any other. It not only relaxes and rests the body through deep sleep, it allows one to move beyond mental confines into a place of perfect peace and awareness of the vast and infinite of the unseen dimension. Words are inadequate to express the experience. I use Yoga Nidra for bodily rest as well as developing a deeper spiritual awareness. On a recent cross country (USA) drive of some 2,300 miles, I replaced normal sleeping with Yoga Nidra (deep sleep) and made the trip in 51 elapsed hours. For a deeper spiritual awareness, Yoga Nidra has brought me to the verge of sammadhi and the precipice of the vast unmanifest realm. It has also enhanced my normal meditative practice by moving me into the peaceful state more quickly and consistently.
Yoga Nidra does not require adherence to any particular religion, therefore, it is applicaple to any spiritual aspirant who seeks a deeper relationship with the Divine Creative Intelligence.

Diving Deep Into Silence 5 Nov 2004
By Meditator - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Audio CD
This CD is quiet and subtle. It leads the listener (meditator) into a deep restful meditative state. IMHO Music is not included because it would keep the mind of the meditator more active and distracted and thus not allow a state of deeper rest.

After the guided meditation, there are quiet periods on the CD. These quiet periods allow the mind to go deeper into its own spacious, silent meditation. True meditation is profoundly personal and is done in the stillness of ones own mind and heart.

This CD trusts your intutive wisdom, to lead you into the depths of your own shining silence.
