This is a self-love practice for remembering the FEELING OF GOOD.

Your body has felt good in the past. 

 It is not an unachievable goal.  

You HAVE FELT GOOD, REALLY GREAT, EVEN, AND YOU CAN FEEL GOOD WHENEVER YOU WANT.

Try this method of "anchoring yourself" in a GOOD FEELING, and let me know how you go.

So. Much. Love.

This is the next progression, another version of Yoga Nidra 2 where you are guided through the rotation of consciousness, the count is increased to 54, the visualization is of a Park-Temple-Forest, and has brought up very different experiences for different people.  

Please feel free to share your experience with me at https://www.facebook.com/breathewithbethyogaandmeditation/ 

I'd love to hear from you. 

This practice walks you through the setup of getting ready for Yoga Nidra, and there is a description of your resolve as well as the visualizations, and the body scan. You are then led through relaxation, rotation of consciousness, breath counting of navel, chest, throat and nostrils, and visualizations. 

This comes directly from Swami Satyananda Saraswati, one of the foremost students and creators of Yoga Nidra. 

Please enjoy. 

If you've ever been interested in using the breath as your focus for meditation, but haven't quite understood how, here is a guided meditation for counting the breath.

Prior to the Meditation, either get into a comfortable meditation seat (if you don't know how, please listen to my "meditation seat" podcast, and if you are still having trouble, send me a message to schedule a session specifically for setting you up in the seat that is right for you -

or, if you are just waking up, or just coming out of an intense day or activity, take about 10-15 minutes to yourself and do some yoga asana to ease your body into a clear, but relaxed mental state.  If you don't know what to do for this, also, please book a session with me, so that I can get to a place that is ideal for meditation.

Happy focusing! 

In this second session of Yoga Nidra we move through Antar Mouna relaxation which is about awareness of sounds.  We then move to awareness of sensations.  The breathing is counted just as in the first session, the meditation is on the inner space, and visualizations are used as well. I hope you enjoy.  

It is easy for us to love others, sometimes more than ourselves.

This grounding meditation is intended to help you access your own source of love and direct it towards your own intentions for your life.

This is a Body-focused relaxation, it introduces the primal sound of Om, and creating a Resolve.  You are guided through the parts of the body as your rotation of consciousness, and introduced to counting of the breath. Visualizations are introduced for you to become familiar with this practice.
