The structure of a Yoga Nidra contains some or all of the following elements:
- Settling the body
- Settling the breath
- Creating & Repeating your Sankalpa / Intention
- Mindful rotation around the body
- Breathwork
- Opposite sensations - e.g. Heavy / Light or Warm / Cold

- Becoming aware of the body & breath again to come back
The three 20 minute Yoga Nidras in this package are based on scripts by Monika Daniel with beautiful language and inspired visualisations. They really provide the listener with the feeling of coming back home to themself.
I hope you enjoy using these on a regular basis, and if you find the practice helpful, maybe try the 30 minute Nidras too!
