About this event
One of 19 upcoming events at Shelton Library System, and 245 across Greater New Haven.
Yoga Nidra Yoga Nidra, or “yogic sleep” is a guided meditation that allows you to enter a state of conscious physical, mental, and emotional relaxation. Yoga Nidra is known to facilitate profound healing and transformation through finding complete rest in a state of dynamic sleep. You will lay in shavasana the entire time as you follow the guided mediation into deeper layers of consciousness within a state between wakefulness and sleep. Please bring water and a blanket. Traditionally, Yoga Nidra is done without a pillow, but feel free to bring one for comfort. Yoga mats are optional, as the library has them available for use. *Note: doors will be locked when the meditation begins, so please be sure to arrive on time.
