Struggling with fractured sleep or waking up exhausted? My Sleep Reset Deluxe Bundle brings together six of my most effective Yoga Nidra meditations to help your body finally settle into real rest.

About this meditation:

This short NSDR Yoga Nidra is designed to support the release of tension commonly held in the neck and shoulders. Rather than stretching or forcing relaxation, this practice works by guiding the nervous system into a deeply receptive state, where holding patterns can soften naturally.

Through targeted awareness, a detailed rotation of consciousness around the neck and shoulders, and gentle imagery that introduces warmth and space, the body is invited to let go of unnecessary effort. This practice is especially supportive if you carry stress in your upper body, spend long hours sitting, or notice chronic tightness that doesn’t respond well to physical stretching.
