Yoga Nidra Teacher Training in Goa, India

Yoga Nidra is one of the greatest gifts yoga has given humanity. It’s an ancient practice rooted in yogic and tantric traditions, designed to relax the deepest layers of the body, mind, and soul. As a technique of Pratyahara—the fifth limb of Ashtanga Yoga, meaning sense withdrawal—Yoga Nidra transforms you on subconscious and unconscious levels. The name combines ‘yoga’ (meaning one-pointed awareness) and ‘nidra’ (meaning sleep). In Yoga Nidra, you appear to be asleep, but your consciousness works on a deeper level. It’s often called psychic sleep.
