Yoga Nidra (Sanskrit for Yogic Sleep) is a powerful technique from the Tantra Yoga tradition. It is both a name of a state and of a practice which creates an altered state of consciousness allowing the practitioner to relax and heal their being, expand their faculty of imagination, enter the realm of subconscious & superconscious, effectively manifest seemingly magical changes in their life, certain karmic debris in their life, clear and assist in reaching a state called by some enlightenment.

Yoga Nidra, although Tantric in origin can be classified as a part of the Raja Yoga system’s Eight Limbs of Yoga, the well-known codification system of the Yogic practices by Patanjali (an Indian sage who lived around 200 B.C.). In fact no less than three of the eight limbs of yoga can be seen in this practice:

1) Pranayama:  Control of breathing through specialized exercises and the subsequent ability to amass, control and direct Prana, the life energy force.

2) Dharana:  Concentration, cultivation and heightening of inner perceptual awareness. Mindfulness.

3)Pratyharya:  Control over the sensory mechanisms of the physical body specifically though exercises which deal with willful withdrawal of the senses and influences of the  mind. The influences of most  interest being those which do not serve us on the path of enlightenment and/or liberation

  • Deep relaxation & stress relief
  • Enhanced sleep quality
  • Improved Mental Clarity & Focus
  • Emotional Healing & Balance
  • Mind-Body Connection
  • Reduction of Anxiety & Depression

Reiki is a holistic healing practice, combining spiritual, physical, and emotional elements to promote overall well-being. It is considered one of the oldest healing arts, utilizing life force energy to support the body’s natural healing processes. Reiki can be administered through hands-on techniques, where the practitioner gently places their hands on or just above the recipient’s body, or it can be performed remotely, allowing energy to be channeled across distances.

Reiki healing sessions are often deeply relaxing and can help reduce stress, fostering a sense of peace and balance. They can help maintain a sense of harmony in daily life, contributing to both short-term relief and long-term well-being. 

Some benefits may include:

  • Stress reduction & relaxation
  • Emotional Healing
  • Physical Healing and Pain Relief
