Ep. 23 - The Radiant Rest of Yoga Nidra with Tracee Stanley

Internationally renowned yoga Nidra teacher Tracee Stanley chats about her new book Radiant Rest, which I consider a toolbox of necessities for our time. Tracee explains what exactly yoga nidra is, the differences between restorative yoga and yoga nidra and how a Sankalpa can be “written” into the subconscious during the state of yoga nidra, and so much more. This is a jam-packed episode.

Yoga offers so many wonderful ways to transform our lives and live our fullest potential. The asana practice is one way, rituals another, but have you ever considered rest? Rest, through the practice of yoga Nidra offers personal insights buried deep in our subconscious. Profoundly beneficial, it can be experienced by anyone with no prior yoga knowledge.
