What Is Yoga Nidra? A Powerful Practice for Healing, Rest & Awakening with Jill Weston ”The Stress Whisper”

Are you overwhelmed by stress, stuck in survival mode, or feeling disconnected from your body and intuition? You’re not alone, love—and this week’s episode offers you a path forward.

In this powerful conversation, I sit down with Jill, affectionately known as “The Stress Whisperer,” to explore the deeply restorative practice of Yoga Nidra. Whether you’re navigating burnout, anxiety, trauma recovery, or simply seeking a gentler way to heal, this episode will give you a fresh perspective on rest, nervous system regulation, and what it really means to reconnect with your body from the inside out.

Jill’s story is not one of hitting rock bottom, but of following a mysterious, heart-led path into a practice that has helped countless people, including those with trauma, regulate, rest, and remember who they really are. 

We talk about:

✨ What Yoga Nidra is (and isn’t)

✨ Why slowing down is essential for real healing

✨ How your future self can guide your healing

✨ The science behind brainwave shifts and trauma response

✨ Letting go of limiting beliefs (like “I don’t like my voice”)

If you’ve ever felt like you’ve “tried everything” but are still carrying stress in your body or struggle with slowing down, this episode may just shift something profound within you.
