Why Yoga Nidra For Anxiety?
Yoga Nidra, often referred to as "yogic sleep," is a deeply relaxing and meditative practice that has been found to be beneficial for reducing anxiety and stress. Here are some reasons why Yoga Nidra is considered helpful for anxiety:
- Relaxation Response: Yoga Nidra promotes the relaxation response in the body, which helps counteract the physiological effects of anxiety. It activates the parasympathetic nervous system, leading to a state of deep relaxation and calmness.
- Reduced Stress Hormones: Engaging in Yoga Nidra has been shown to decrease the levels of stress hormones, such as cortisol, in the body. Excessive levels of cortisol are associated with anxiety and stress-related disorders. By reducing these hormones, Yoga Nidra helps to alleviate anxiety symptoms.
- Mind-Body Connection: Yoga Nidra focuses on the integration of mind and body. In this 20-minute yoga nidra, you will be lead through a rotational consciousness practice. This process enhances your ability to observe and detach from thoughts and feelings, leading to a greater sense of calm and perspective.
These are not flowery guided meditations; rather, they are expertly-crafted practices aimed to facilitate real change.
