Yoga Nidra
Yoga Nidra is a technique that is becoming very popular nowadays. Sometimes it’s confused with common relaxation techniques and sometimes with visualization.
It’s vital for Yoga practitioners and teachers to understand what Yoga Nidra is, where it comes from and most importantly, the way it works.
It’s essential to differentiate Yoga Nidra techniques from other techniques of visualization, or progressive relaxation.
Yoga Nidra refers to the “State of consciousness” and techniques used to achieve that state. The term “Yoga” refers to the aim (Samadhi) and the path (Hatha yoga, Raja Yoga, Laya Yoga etc.).
