36. Yoga Nidra for Deep Rest & Self-Realization | Exploring the Five Koshas


Listen Later

In this episode, Amanda Grover guides you through a deeply restorative Yoga Nidra meditation rooted in the ancient yogic framework of the five koshas — the physical body, breath, mind, wisdom, and bliss layers of being.

This guided Yoga Nidra invites you to move inward through each kosha, not to change or transcend them, but to soften beneath them and rest in pure awareness. Through breath awareness, visualization, body sensing, and intention-setting (sankalpa), this practice supports nervous system regulation, emotional integration, and profound rest.

This Yoga Nidra is designed to help you:

  1. Calm the nervous system and release physical tension
  2. Quiet the mind and observe thoughts without attachment
  3. Explore the five koshas as a pathway to self-realization
  4. Rest beyond identity, conditioning, and mental effort
  5. Access clarity, intuition, and inner stillness

This practice is ideal for evening wind-down, before sleep, or anytime you need deep rest. No movement is required. You may lie down or sit comfortably and allow the practice to unfold.

Best for:

Yoga Nidra meditation • Deep rest • Nervous system regulation • Self-inquiry • Inner awareness • Sleep support • Spiritual growth
