You will be reminded of the counting of breaths, and be challenged to trust, in yourself, and in me, as you are guided through new visualizations.

Remember that you may experience anxiety, or fear.  TRUST that whatever is being spoken, is only that- words. You always have the choice, in Nidra, and especially in life, to NOT listen, to NOT obey the instructions. 

What exists in your life and what exists in your mind are BOTH your CHOICE. 

Any sensation that you feel that is unpleasant, you HAVE THE POWER to change, to shift, to come into a place of pleasant comfort, if you so desire.

You CAN also CHOOSE to be guided by the instructions and observe how you feel.  

The whole practice of Nidra is intended to awaken THE POWER OF OBSERVATION within you.  Of feeling guided, and accepting what comes. 

If you do experience any nervousness, extreme discomfort, or pain, please know that it will not last forever, and by experiencing these sensations, from within ourselves, and also by observing our reactions, we are learning more and more about ourselves, everyday. 

We come to understand WHEN, HOW, AND WHY WE REACT, we can better understand HOW to soothe ourselves. 

Acknowledgement of CHOICE is an ENORMOUS part of personal growth, and spiritual development. Yes, there are MANY things you CANNOT CONTROL in life. 

We might as well utilize the resources available to us in the areas we CAN.

Love you! 

Beth

P.S. Please let me know what your experience of this episode was. Regardless of how you felt or thought, please, tell me. 

Reversing the order of the body awareness as well as traveling back in time. You will be led through a yoga sequence, in your mind and also guided through some visuals that may challenge your comfort level. Just breathe. You will be led. You are safe. 

In this episode you will focus briefly on the elements of a Nidra practice, you will be reminded of the reversal of the rotation of consciousness, and physical body sensations and emotions.  You will be brought through a visualization of trust, through a journey with a well. You will then be guided through the visualization of yourself doing yoga asana and then physical and metaphysical locations of the Chakras, and then returned back to the space you began. Enjoy.  

The first day of my Yoga Teacher Training, I was confronted with.... myself.

I didn't know what postures came next in a sequence we were taught, and I was stunned at how NOT PRESENT I was being... embarrassed, even. There I was, just waiting for the teacher to tell me every step of the way what to do... hanging on their next words.  

But, then, the words stopped... we were told to do the sequence in our own timing.  This was such an affront to my sense of stability. I ran home and wrote in my journal, on one whole page: "SHOW THE FUCK UP FOR YOURSELF"!

From that moment, I decided I would STOP being NON-COMMITTAL, and actually DO the WORK for MYSELF, instead of allowing others to guide me every step of my life.

I mean, I had paid this company over $4,000 to do this training.... so why was I ALLOWING MYSELF to NOT EVEN ABSORB the material? Why was I not embodying it?

I have found that this is pretty common for most people in our modern society... we pay for a service, and we let go... we EXPECT them to do the WORK for us.  We pay gym memberships and never go, we pay for studios and never attend class, we pay for TONS OF ONLINE PROGRAMS, and we NEVER COMPLETE THEM! 

Well, we can't do that anymore. STOP being afraid to step into your own power. Stop taking a sideline to your own life. Stop selling out by handing someone else money and expecting your life to instantly change! 

SHOW UP! DO YOUR OWN WORK! OBSERVE YOURSELF. I promise, your life will feel so incredibly more aligned the moment you choose.... YOU !! 

This episode is full of swear words, and commands, and berating you and telling you what you need to hear- like a tough-love kinda thing.

How about YOU being the inspiration? How about YOU learning what is WITHIN YOU that has been there all along to take YOUR life beyond the “status quo”? You can only know if you try. It’s not rocket science… it’s Yogic Science. :) It’s the science of enabling your brain to re-write its old bullshit story, replacing it with BRAND-SPARKLY-NEW-SYNAPSES that actually do the things you want them to do FOR YOUR BENEFIT!

SHOULDN’T YOUR OWN BRAIN AND BODY WORK FOR YOU?

tons of love,

If you are not sure how to set yourself up properly, listen to this, first, and anytime you need a refresher.

You will be guided through a new Rotation of Consciousness, a new way to think about the breath, we return again to awareness of sensations and understand inner space through an ocean image, and a time travel visualization. 

Use this ANYTIME you just need a break from life.  Get some pillows or cushions to have ready for the end. 

Lie down, place something small under your neck or your knees or both, if you feel you need extra support there, and just listen. 

You will be guided through letting go of your physical body, and tapping into your source. After a long rest, you will be guided to rise to a comfortable seat, and then through a guided meditation. 

ENJOY!  

In this practice you will expand your capability for visualization, as you are taken through a rather intense journey with the unconscious physical body and the subconscious mind, where you will come face to face with your own mistrust and have the chance to ponder the concept of deception within yourself. What will you choose to let go of?

This episode begins with a whole back body heaviness, and guides you through another version of visualization. 

It keeps your count training at 108, quickly asks that you create your resolve, and challenges you to stay awake through this new visualization.

This shorter Nidra is training for the concept of Nadi Shodana, or alternate nostril breathing, but mentally.  You already are familiar with the sankalpa, rotation of consciousness, and counting, so the counting begins at a higher number, and you given much more time/silence to develop this awareness, and the instructions are given more quickly because you are used to these, already. 

It's a new visualization.

Release all of your expectations, and try it.
