N.107 Yoga Nidra for Cutting Cords & Deep Release | Beyond Sleep
Welcome to our transformative session of Nova Nidra, guided by Ayla Nova. This ancient practice of Yoga Nidra or 'yogic sleep' allows us to delve deeply into relaxation while maintaining a trace of awareness.Understanding Cutting Cords: Historically, the practice of cutting cords stems from various spiritual traditions, where it is used to sever energetic ties that bind us to past experiences or relationships that no longer serve our highest good. These ties are thought to impact our emotional and energetic health, and cutting them is seen as a way to cleanse our spirit or aura and reclaim personal energy.In today's session, Ayla Nova honours the courage it takes to engage in this deep healing work. We begin by setting the stage for a comfortable practice, aligning the body and calming the mind. You will be guided through the layers of your being—from the physical to the profound—using the gentle flow of breath and the power of intention (Sankalpa) to foster inner peace and release.'Whatever the present moment contains, accept it as if you had chosen it. Always work with it, not against it.' – Eckhart TollePS. Join Live for an Equinox Nova | September 22 | https://youtube.com/live/i5GtQI0vTl0?feature=shareYoga Nidra session will help you:• Release energetic ties from experiences or relationships that no longer serve your highest good.• Diminish feelings of stress and mental exhaustion, rejuvenating your mind.• Set the foundation for a night of deep, healing rest.• Promote a state of emotional neutrality and calm through guided relaxation.What to Expect:• An introduction to Yoga Nidra's core principles• Setting a personal intention or Sankalpa for mental clarity• Guided techniques for profound mental relaxation• A thorough Yoga Nidra journey focusing on anchoring in the presentWho This is For: This session is ideal for anyone looking to embrace their whole self and let go of past burdens.
