Nadi Shodhana and Yoga Nidra

In yoga, ‘Nadi Shodhana’ is the practice of alternate nostril breathing. Nadi is a Sanskrit word meaning “channel” or “flow” and shodhana means “purification.” Nadi Shodhana therefore is a practice aimed purifying or cleansing the main energy channels of the body to bring them into balance.

This yoga nidra that I have recorded for you incorporates a very short Nadi Shodhana practice.

Please make sure you are in a place where you won’t be disturbed and have the following items with you:

~ yoga mat or something to lie on for comfort!

~ 2 x bed pillows or cushions – for your head and beneath your knees so your lower back can really relax.

~ 1 x eye pillow to cover your eyes

~ 1 or 2 blankets – or something to cover yourself as your body temperature will drop as you relax.

I hope you enjoy it.
