Yoga Nidra Training Level 1 will give you the tools and resources needed to lead others effectively in Yoga Nidra.

You will be able to help your clients and students relax, increase body-mind awareness, make positive behavior changes, heal emotional and physical upsets, and enhance self-understanding.
Yoga Nidra, or “yogic sleep,” is a comprehensive practice for going far beyond deep relaxation to a place of natural peace and quiet that is tremendously healing for the body, mind, and spirit. Yoga Nidra is based on Yoga teachings and backed by contemporary science. Studies have shown that Yoga Nidra can boost the immune system, lower blood pressure, decrease pain, and improve other health conditions. Regular practice can improve memory, concentration, and relieve anxiety and depression. Using a sankalpa (self-selected resolve) during the fertile brain wave states experienced during Yoga Nidra makes it possible to clear out useless habits and bring about positive and durable changes to one’s personality and life. Yoga Nidra is fundamental to a complete Hatha Yoga session and can also be done as a separate practice on its own.
Live sessions with Julie on Thursdays from 7–9:15 pm (except on Jan. 5, first session starts at 6:30 pm) and Saturdays from 9:30–11:30 am, 1–3 pm, and 4–6 pm ET.
You will have access to recordings of Integral Yoga Hatha classes and access to an online social community to connect and communicate with other participants about this course.
If circumstances prevent you from taking the full training, you have the option to take Yoga Nidra for Complete Relaxation and Stress Relief – Online, Thursdays, January 5–26, 2022. The workshop is part of the Level 1 training. More info and registration here.
