Yoga Nidra is one of the most powerful tools that can be used to provide a person with a sense of calmness and relaxation. In Yoga Nidra, the practitioner enters their alpha state and their focus shifts to the third eye chakra(sahasrara). It also stimulates the hormones in the pineal gland, which releases melatonin -- a hormone that reduces stress, boosts the immune system and helps prevent illness. Regular practice helps harmonize the brain hemispheres, promoting better mental performance.

Yoga Nidra offers other amazing health benefits, as well, including:

• Calms the mind
• Relaxes and rejuvenates the body
• Soothes the nervous system
• Reduces fatigue
• Lowers high cholesterol and blood pressure levels
• Strengthens immunity
• Improves quality of sleep
• Treats depression
• Reduces pain
• Boosts concentration level
• Supports brain function and boosts creativity
