   Full Moon Yoga Nidra 🌕 | A Ritual in Rest for Release, Renewal & Nervous System CalmThis Full Moon Yoga Nidra is a ritual in rest... a guided practice for slowing down, listening inward, and meeting whatever feels illuminated beneath the light of the full moon.If you notice yourself feeling more emotionally full, restless, energized, sensitive, or pulled between calm and chaos during this part of the lunar cycle, this practice offers a place to land it all.🌙 5 States of Rest: https://www.skool.com/novanidracommunity/about🎓 Nova Nidra Teacher Training — apply today: https://www.aylanova.com/peaceinrestprogram/teachGuided by Ayla Nova, this Yoga Nidra and Non-Sleep Deep Rest (NSDR) practice moves through breath, body, awareness, and the emotional polarity of calm and chaos — inviting you to experience both without needing to fix, suppress, or hold onto either.The full moon has long been used as a symbolic moment for reflection, culmination, release, and renewal. Rather than asking you to do more, this ritual invites you to lie down.To rest. To notice what has become clear. To feel what is ready to be acknowledged.And perhaps, to release what no longer needs to travel with you into the next cycle.🌕 Let rest become the ritual.You do not need to force yourself into calm. You do not need to eliminate the chaos.Yoga Nidra invites you to witness both and discover the awareness spacious enough to hold them.00:11 Ayla Nova's Welcoming Words02:22 Ayla's Gratitude Offering03:11 Preparing the Space & Body05:55 The Practice of Yoga Nidra begins now50:28 Closing Words & Return✦ What to expect:— A Full Moon ritual experienced entirely through rest— Full-body rotation of consciousness for deep relaxation— Breath awareness to settle into the energetic body— Emotional polarity practice exploring calm and chaos— Space for reflection, release, and renewal— Guided visualization beneath the light of the full moon— Sankalpa, your heartfelt intention, woven into the practice— A gentle return into the next phase of your lunar cycle✧☽ Mental Emotional Body: Calm & ChaosCan you feel calm without needing to hold onto it?Can you experience chaos without becoming consumed by it?Within Yoga Nidra, opposites can be experienced as changing states rather than permanent truths. You are invited to witness the movement between them and rest in the awareness beneath both.✧☽ After the PracticeBefore getting up, notice what remains.What has become illuminated?What feels complete?What are you ready to release?And what would you like to carry intentionally into the cycle ahead?There is nothing you need to resolve tonight. Let the practice continue unfolding in its own time.If something became clear to you during your Full Moon Yoga Nidra, share your reflection below.Your words may help someone else recognize something within themselves.This practice is offered as a space for rest, meditation, and gentle self-inquiry and is not a substitute for medical or mental health care.
