About this event

Deep Rest: Yoga Nidra

Join us for a relaxing session of Yoga Nidra at Hebburn Central! (1st Floor - Yoga/Dance Studio)

This in-person event will guide you through a deep state of relaxation, helping you unwind and de-stress. Let go of tension and experience a profound sense of calm.

No prior yoga experience needed - just bring yourself and an open mind. Come ready to immerse yourself in this blissful practice and leave feeling refreshed and renewed.

What is Yoga Nidra?

Like Yoga itself, Yoga Nidra is both a process and a state. You can be in the “state

of Yoga Nidra” which is a state of consciousness between waking and sleeping.

Benefits of the practice

Everyone's experience will differ but some of the know benefits are:

  • Relaxation
  • Tension release
  • Emotional regulation
  • Improved sleep
  • Stress reduction
  • Improved memory
  • Increased creativity and clarity

I don't provide mats or other props so you may want to bring the following:

Mat - if you choose to lie down

Pillow - for extra comfort

Blanket - for even more comfort

Eye Pillow - if you would like to close off from the world for a little while

Please note the practice of Yoga Nidra can also be seated. Chairs are available in the room.

Health:

If you are currently diagnosed with any health conditions, please let us know in advance so we can discuss how best to support you.

Please know that Aroha Healing makes every effort to make our teaching trauma informed but it is down to you to take responsibility for yourself.

The Space and Setting:

The room is a quiet space, there will be periods of silence during the guidance.

The room is located on the second floor of the building in the dance/yoga studio.

The centre does have machines available for water or refreshments but it is advised you bring your own if you are able to.

Frequently asked questions

Do you provide yoga mats?

No, I don't, I rent this space and mats are not available. For your own comfort please bring your own.

Is the room and building accessible?

Yes, it is, the building entrance has a ramp and an automatic doorway on entrance. There is a lift to take you to the first floor where the yoga/dance studio is located.

Is it ok if I fall asleep in this practice?

Nidra means sleep, although we are merely relaxing in a liminal place between sleep and wakefulness, if you drift off, that is ok. I gently guide the session, if you snore, I may use a tapping technique near the space where you lie to support with any distractions for your peers.

What else should I bring to class?

Optional things recommended are water, eye mask, pillow, bolster, cusions, blankets.

What should I wear?

Wear comfortable clothing , usually we practice with shoes off so do bring a pair of socks in case your feet get cold.

If I arrive late, is it still ok to come in?

I understand life happens and sometimes timing can not always be on your side, however for minimal distraction, I ask if you are more than 5 minutes late not to enter. I recommend arriving at least 5 minutes before we commence.
