Daily Guided Breathing Exercise for Anxiety

This is a short, simple and uncomplicated yoga sequence that will allow you to release anxiety with yoga breathing and movements. By moving your spine in all directions you will open up your thoracic spine and lungs so that letting go of your breath on the exhalation will become even easier. Then we will focus on a “sigh of relief” to let go of anxiety. For this class you will need a chair.

Thank you so much for your feedback. Thanks to your requests, we are re-releasing this yoga nidra with VOICE ONLY for your enjoyment. 

Our yoga nidra practice opens our neuroception to be grounded in the present moment, to be more regulated, calm and spacious. By gently moving our awareness around our body, we anchor in the present moment and create a sense of calm and presence. 

In this calming Vagus Nerve Yoga Nidra practice, we invite deep relaxation. As I guide your awareness through your body, I invite a profound sense of stillness to envelop you. Breath awareness and practice will regulate your vagus nerve. With each breath, we nurture connection to the present moment, fostering a sanctuary of peace within ourselves. 

Through this practice, we cultivate a harmonious balance between body, mind, and spirit, tapping into the healing power of the vagus nerve to restore inner calm.

This 70 minute yoga nidra for healing is a deeply healing and restorative guided meditation for when you need physical and emotional healing. Deep rest is essential to our overall physical, mental and emotional well-being. When we take time to deeply rest, our bodies can be healed at a cellular level. Our parasympathetic nervous system, lymphatic system and organs can do their natural work of repair. When you are experiencing illness, pain and emotional depletion this guided meditation for deep inner healing will allow you to tap into your own body’s innate capacity for healing. 

In this yoga nidra meditation for healing we will trace your awareness through the network of cells, tissues, and organs to improve the free flow of energy along the pathways for your body’s wellbeing. This meditative sleep yoga allows you to open your awareness into different parts of your body to mobilize your own innate healing power. This free flow of energy will greatly assist your body’s innate healing capacity.

I hope you enjoy this extra long yoga nidra. 

May all beings be healthy. 

May all beings be at ease.
