<h3>A﻿BOUT YOGA NIDRA </h3>Y﻿oga Nidra is sometimes described as yoga sleep, it's a wonderful state of being somewhere between being awake and being asleep. It's a guided meditation of sorts and needs no props of effort other than a mind and body willing to let go. Some people claim that 20 minutes of Yoga Nidra is equivalent to two hours of sleep. Who knows if this is true by many women say that it leaves them feeling nourished and refreshed. If your nervous system is on high alert, you may feel tired initially and then feel the benefits after some rest.
