In this 17-minute guided Yoga Nidra session, yoga teacher Heather Larson will lead you into a state of deep relaxation and inner awareness.

This practice includes body scanning, breath awareness, and visualization techniques designed to calm the nervous system and support deep rest. Perfect for unwinding at the end of the day or taking a mindful pause whenever you need to reset.

What to Expect:

A short centering to settle the body and mind

A systematic body scan for deep physical relaxation

Breath awareness to anchor your attention

Gentle visualizations to guide you into stillness

No experience necessary. Simply find a quiet space, lie down comfortably, and listen.

On this episode, I’m joined by Hindu Chaplain (NYU, Columbia) Sangeetha Kowsik. She’s passionate about Hinduism, art, and culture. She brings together faith, language, typography, and art to tell beautiful stories. You’ll learn a lot in this podcast about Deepavali/Diwali, Navratri, the interfaith movement, girl Gods, and how our differences make us stronger. In this episode, we lose the divisions and talk about what brings us together. In this season and always, we want to bring light to the darkness. ✨
