Yoga Nidra: For Healthy Personal & Collective Change

The world needs you. But you need you too, right? This Himalayan Yogic Sleep practice offers safety and rest to your nervous system while expanding awareness and orient towards healthy change during this time of chaos.

What does a Yoga Nidra Class Feel like?

Each session has a unique intention to acknowledge and include the suffering of our kin. As we move through the body scan and breathing awareness, this intention becomes an anchor, gently returning to consciousness while your body remains deeply relaxed.

The guided visualization portions might invite you to imagine a more just world or connect with your capacity for transformative action, allowing these images to integrate at a subconscious level. Throughout the practice, you might be guided to notice and release tensions connected to social inequities you've witnessed or experienced, creating space for both personal healing and commitment to collective liberation.

The restorative nature of yoga nidra combined with a justice-focused intention can help replenish emotional reserves for those engaged in social change work, reducing burnout while strengthening internal resolve.

What do I need to bring?

Wear comfortable clothes, bring a journal if you wish. There will be tea & snacks for post class nourishment

What else do I need to know?

Class starts on time. In order for the building to be secured for our class, the exterior door will lock at 6pm. Please arrive 5-10 minutes early to settle in.

• Dao Yin/Neigong exercises (internal energy practices)

“The three months of spring 

are the time of generating and spreading. 

Together Heaven and Earth give life, 

and all living things flourish. 

Sleep at night and rise early. 

Walk with long strides through open courtyards, 

let loose the hair and relax the body, 

Allow all intent to come to life, 

Let things live, do not kill, 

Give, do not take, 

Reward, do not punish,” 

- Su Wen Chapter 2

• A brief community check in and intention setting

• Set up your body comfortably for a long period of rest

• Be guided into a state of deep relaxation and ease

🌑 Nourishing Yin 🌑

Summer Solstice: The days and nights are of equal length. We can bask in the time of sky and earth harmony.

Today’s class is also Juneteenth. We will have poetry from Black movement leaders. 

Nourishing Yin is rooted in Chinese Medicine, emphasizing the body's meridians – the pathways of energy. In this class, we blend intentional postures with Taoist principles to stimulate energy flow optimal for the season, 

Benefits of Nourishing Yin: 

• Meridian Nourishment: Poses work seasonally specific meridians, promoting energy balance and nourishment within the body

• Extended Stillness: Postures are supportively held for 5-7 minutes, allowing you to settle into your inner landscape and nourish your connective tissue.

• Energy Revitalization: Activate and balance qi

• Emotional Equilibrium: Nourishing Yin supports the balancing of emotions, fostering tranquility and mental clarity

We end each class by dedicating the merit. This means any and all benefits our bodies receive in class are for the benefit of all sentient beings.
