You may drift to sleep... you'll still receive many of the benefits. ✨ Sankalpa suggestions for this practice For Loving Acceptance: I am kind. I am loving awareness. I am true to my heart. For Harmony: I am calm to my core. I am at peace. I am in harmony. For Release: I am free. I am whole. I am caring. 00:12 Meeting Yourself with Compassion 01:14 The Four Phrases of Ho'oponopono 03:13 Gift of Community 04:08 Arrival 06:19 Somatic Release 07:30 The Practice Begins Now Please practice at your own pace and only where it's safe to fully rest, and never while driving.

New Moon Yoga Nidra for Trust & Manifestation | a deeply restful guided practice to calm the nervous system and meet the version of you who already became. The new moon offers a night without reflected light, and in that darkness, the stars become easier to see. In this Yoga Nidra, you're invited to rest beyond who you are becoming and sense the one who crossed the threshold: the future you who learned what you are still learning, and who looks back at this moment with knowing. Together we move through the koshas, settling the physical body, breath, beliefs and emotions, before a gentle visualization where you may recognize the qualities of your future self already alive within you. You're welcome to drift into sleep and still receive the benefits of this practice. ✨ Curious what state of rest you're moving through right now?

Full Moon Yoga Nidra 🌕 | A Ritual in Rest for Release, Renewal & Nervous System Calm This Full Moon Yoga Nidra is a ritual in rest... a guided practice for slowing down, listening inward, and meeting whatever feels illuminated beneath the light of the full moon. If you notice yourself feeling more emotionally full, restless, energized, sensitive, or pulled between calm and chaos during this part of the lunar cycle, this practice offers a place to land it all. 🌙 5 States of Rest: https://www.skool.com/novanidracommunity/about 🎓 Nova Nidra Teacher Training — apply today: https://www.aylanova.com/peaceinrestprogram/teach Guided by Ayla Nova, this Yoga Nidra and Non-Sleep Deep Rest (NSDR) practice moves through breath, body, awareness, and the emotional polarity of calm and chaos — inviting you to experience both without needing to fix, suppress, or hold onto either. The full moon has long been used as a symbolic moment for reflection, culmination, release, and renewal. Rather than asking you to do more, this ritual invites you to lie down. To rest. To notice what has become clear. To feel what is ready to be acknowledged. And perhaps, to release what no longer needs to travel with you into the next cycle. 🌕 Let rest become the ritual. You do not need to force yourself into calm. You do not need to eliminate the chaos. Yoga Nidra invites you to witness both and discover the awareness spacious enough to hold them. 00:11 Ayla Nova's Welcoming Words 02:22 Ayla's Gratitude Offering 03:11 Preparing the Space & Body 05:55 The Practice of Yoga Nidra begins now 50:28 Closing Words & Return ✦ What to expect: — A Full Moon ritual experienced entirely through rest — Full-body rotation of consciousness for deep relaxation — Breath awareness to settle into the energetic body — Emotional polarity practice exploring calm and chaos — Space for reflection, release, and renewal — Guided visualization beneath the light of the full moon — Sankalpa, your heartfelt intention, woven into the practice — A gentle return into the next phase of your lunar cycle ✧☽ Mental Emotional Body: Calm & Chaos Can you feel calm without needing to hold onto it? Can you experience chaos without becoming consumed by it? Within Yoga Nidra, opposites can be experienced as changing states rather than permanent truths. You are invited to witness the movement between them and rest in the awareness beneath both. ✧☽ After the Practice Before getting up, notice what remains. What has become illuminated? What feels complete? What are you ready to release? And what would you like to carry intentionally into the cycle ahead? There is nothing you need to resolve tonight. Let the practice continue unfolding in its own time. If something became clear to you during your Full Moon Yoga Nidra, share your reflection below. Your words may help someone else recognize something within themselves. This practice is offered as a space for rest, meditation, and gentle self-inquiry and is not a substitute for medical or mental health care. Everything within the practice is an invitation. Move at your own pace and leave out anything that does not feel supportive today. Perfect for a Full Moon meditation, Full Moon ritual, Yoga Nidra for release, emotional release, nervous system regulation, intention setting, deep rest, Sankalpa practice, lunar meditation, and NSDR. #FullMoonYogaNidra #FullMoonMeditation #YogaNidra #NSDR #FullMoonRitual #NervousSystemRegulation #DeepRest Rest well.

Yoga Nidra for Sleep, Grief & Anxiety | NSDR to calm insomnia, racing thoughts, and a broken heart. This 52-minute Yoga Nidra is for insomnia, for waking in the dark and not settling back down, and for the stress and dread that hits before you're even out of bed. It's for grief... a breakup, a divorce, losing someone you loved... and for the anxiety that won't let go. Guided by Ayla Nova, this Non-Sleep Deep Rest (NSDR) practice moves through breath, body, and heart to calm your nervous system and guide you back toward rest. This is a space to soothe the heart and quiet the mind. Calm has two doors: sometimes you return through one small action, sometimes by letting things unfold in their own time. You only need to rest... the door will show itself. If this practice carries you back to sleep, that's the deepest wish behind it. 🌙 Join the Nova Nidra Community: https://www.skool.com/novanidracommunity/about 🎓 Nova Nidra Teacher Training — apply today: https://www.aylanova.com/peaceinrestprogram/teach 📷 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/aylanovanidra 💛 Support via Gifts of Gratitude: https://bio.site/aylanovanidra 00:11 Ayla Nova's Welcoming Words 02:11 Ayla's Gratitude Offering 03:01 Preparing the Space & Body 03:44 The practice of Yoga Nidra begins now 50:28 Closing Words & Return ✦ What to expect: — A felt journey through the meadow, held from waking to rest — Full-body rotation of consciousness for physical release — Breath awareness and the infinity-breath for the energetic body — Emotional polarity work — forcing and unfolding — Guided visualization and Sankalpa integration — A gentle return, whether to your day or back to sleep ✧☽ Mental Emotional Body: Forcing & Unfolding ✧☽ After the Practice: Notice whether the ache has softened, even a little.
