52: Yoga Nidra for Sleep: A Guided Journey Into Deep Rest
Discover how to drift gently into nourishing sleep with this calming Yoga Nidra practice designed to help your body, mind, and nervous system deeply restore.
In this guided Yoga Nidra session, Christina Zipperlen invites you into a state of conscious relaxation, often called Yogic Sleep. You’ll be led into stillness, softening, and surrender, allowing sleep to come naturally. This practice creates a safe, nurturing container where your body and mind can rest, your nervous system can reset, and your spirit can reconnect to its essence.
No prior experience is needed, only a quiet space where you can lie down and let go. Christina reminds us: “You are exactly where you need to be.”
Key Takeaways
Yoga Nidra offers a bridge between wakefulness and sleep, creating space for deep rest and healing.
Intentions (Sankalpa) can be planted in this receptive state, supporting transformation and peace.
The practice allows you to safely release tension, connect inward, and let go of what no longer serves you.
Sleep, if it arrives during the meditation, is not a failure—it is welcomed as part of the process.
