STILLNESS SESSION
STILLNESS SESSION
Boost your employees’ physical and mental wellbeing
Yoga nidra promotes deep rest and relaxation that isn’t found in your average meditation practice and is more refreshing than deep sleep. Considered the meditative heart of Yoga, yoga nidra is a powerful tool that can help individuals, teams & companies work more effectively from a relaxed state of being with an enhanced focus on mental health.
GROUNDING DEEP RELAXATION
THE SCIENCE BEHIND THE HEALING
When you begin Yoga Nidra, your brain is generally in an active state of beta waves, a natural transitional experience as you start to slow down and press pause on your day.
The meditative practice then takes you into an alpha state, the brain wave frequency that links conscious thought with the subconscious mind. In alpha state Serotonin is released, which helps you to reach a transformational experience of inner calm.
From this place fluctuations in the mind start to decrease and you begin to feel more at ease. The body moves into stillness and a deep feeling of tranquillity and relaxation occurs. Following deeper into the practice the brain will then begin to emit delta waves, mimicking what happens when we enter a deep restful sleep.
