Introduction: Looking for a way to restore balance in your body, tap into deep, reparative sleep, and uncover insights from your subconscious mind? In today's episode, we dive into Yoga Nidra with Kelly Smith—mom, globally celebrated yoga and meditation teacher, and founder of Yoga For You. Kelly is also the host of the iTunes chart-topping podcasts Mindful in Minutes and Meditation. With her down-to-earth meditation instruction, Kelly encourages people to discover their unique yoga and meditation practice, listen to their bodies, and tap into inner joy. In this episode, I share my own experience of trying Yoga Nidra for the first time—on a plane! Kelly challenged me to a "joy and happiness" session, and though I fell asleep the first time, I completed it the second round, feeling a profound sense of joy and peace. The woman next to me may have thought I was a little nutty, but I didn't mind—it felt amazing!
