Yoga Nidra is “Yogic sleep” and one hour of Yoga Nidra is said to equate to four hours sleep. Yoga Nidra encourages profound relaxation and effortlessness. ​

The term Yoga Nidra derives from two Sanskrit words, Yoga meaning union and Nidra meaning sleep. It’s a beautiful practice when one appears to be in a state of sleep, but the consciousness is working on a deeper level of awareness.

It’s a deep relaxation to harmonise the deeper unconscious and awaken inner potential to connect to a meditative state of being.

This systematic method of inducing complete mental, emotional and physical relaxation is suitable for all practitioners.

For a busy mind, Yoga Nidra enables to find stillness. It is a great way to bring calm, presence and peace for those who suffer from insomnia and those who are practicing on their mindfulness and awareness.

Around the Autumn Equinox, day and night come into balance.

It is a natural moment to reflect on balance in our own lives too.

This Sunday, ask yourself where you may need more steadiness.

More rest?
More movement?
More connection?
More time alone?
More support?
More space to simply be?

Balance is not about getting everything equal all the time. It is about noticing what has tipped too far and gently adjusting where you can.

As the season begins to turn, let this be an invitation to return to what supports you.

One small adjustment can be enough.

Ashtanga Primary Series is also called Yoga Chikitsa, meaning Yoga therapy, because of the cleansing and toning effect it has on both body and mind. The Primary Series is an inward practise, noticing the body and stepping away from what goes on around you to find stillness in your mind and to focus on your breath.

Sunny will guide you through the Ashtanga Primary series which is suitable for beginners and the more advanced practitioners.

You will learn to follow a set sequence of postures (Asanas) building strength, flexibility and endurance in the physical body. It also realigns, loosens tight muscles and detoxifies the body and nervous system.

Through regular practise, on a mental level, it improves the focus, willpower, mind body awareness and confidence to overcome the mental obstacles in our practise.
