Yoga Nidra: Beginner Meditation
Thursday, August 31
6:00pm - 7:00pm
Yoga Nidra is also known as yogic breathing. This immersive mindfulness relaxation begins the practice of 'pranayama' meditation.
Pranayama is the ancient art of yogic breathing techniques, used to regulate one’s energy, in preparation for meditation and integration of the physical elements of yoga. Yoga Nidra restores oxygen to the body and calms the nervous system, returning the mind-body to a state of equilibrium and stillness.
This session will teach breathing patterns and timing, as the foundation for regular practice in daily life.
What to bring:
- Yoga mat or beach towel
- Cushion & soft blanket
- Shawl & socks
Join us at the Torquay Library for this one-hour, introductory session, with Fiona Sullivan.
Fiona is a mindfulness coach and a Yoga Nidra practiser graduating from the BYS Yogic Meditation Institute in 2021. Fiona has a commitment to using meditation techniques to enhance the quality of people’s lives, and this program will demonstrate that.
