Anxiety is a natural response to stress—sometimes useful, sometimes overwhelming. This Yoga Nidra practice offers a gentle path inward, creating space for mental tension to soften and the nervous system to return to balance. Through soothing guidance, you'll be led into a deep state of rest where clarity, peace, and inner calm can emerge.Yoga Nidra offers powerful tools to support emotional well-being by slowing the fluctuations of the mind and gently guiding the body into a state of homeostasis. As you settle into stillness, brainwave patterns shift into restful rhythms that have been shown to support healing from anxiety, insomnia, stress, grief, depression, and PTSD.This practice is fully accessible—no prior experience is needed. There is no “wrong” way to do Yoga Nidra; simply lie down and be guided into deep relaxation and inner awareness.If you're experiencing severe anxiety or emotional distress, please seek support from a healthcare professional or consider reaching out through BetterHelp, which offers financial assistance for those in need.Support the showListen on Insight Timer https://insighttimer.com/elkejohnsonSubscribe @Restful Medicine on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCVWbsKjfzIbDRM8PeZfwqww/videos?view=0Follow on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61560351875075Elke is a certified 500 hr Yoga Teacher focusing on Grief Yoga (R), Trauma Sensitive Yoga, and Yoga Nidra (Transformational Sleep).

Forgiveness can sometimes be very difficult, especially the closer your relationship to the person. To forgive we must create space and let go of the past. To do this we turn our attention to the present moment where we can feel peace and allow for forgiveness.In this 25 minute guided meditation, we offer the Hawaiian prayer, or blessing, or offering of forgiveness, Ho'oponopono, I love you. I am sorry. Please forgive me. Thank you. Resting within this prayer can be mending to the tender heart and mind. Take care and thank you for listening.Support the showListen on Insight Timer https://insighttimer.com/elkejohnsonSubscribe @Restful Medicine on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCVWbsKjfzIbDRM8PeZfwqww/videos?view=0Follow on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61560351875075Elke is a certified 500 hr Yoga Teacher focusing on Grief Yoga (R), Trauma Sensitive Yoga, and Yoga Nidra (Transformational Sleep).
