✨ Your 5 States of Rest archetype is landing in your inbox TODAY! ✨
Go check your email, Nova Nidra family... your results are on their way at 11am PT! (in 40 Minutes) A few things to keep in mind as you receive them: The state you got reflects the state that was most dominant when you took the quiz. Think of it as a mirror showing you where your system is resting right now... not a permanent label, just an honest reflection of this moment. So don't overthink it. Receive it. Sit with it. Then come back here and share: 👉 Which state did you get? 👉 What landed for you? What surprised you? We'll be exploring these States of Rest more together over the coming months. For now, let your state breathe with you. 🌿 Can't wait to see what comes up in the comments!

The Dream Weaver! Perfect fit, very cool...Thanks

"I know what I'm moving toward. I can feel it. I just can't always seem to close the distance between here and there." There is a particular kind of longing that lives in this state. A reaching. A knowing-without-quite-arriving. The Vijnanamaya Kosha is the wisdom body… the layer of deeper knowing, intuition, and inner vision. When we're living from this layer, we tend to be people of great perception. You sense things. You see patterns others miss. You have a relationship with your inner life that feels real and meaningful, and there is usually a vision... of who you're becoming, of what your life could hold, that pulls at you even on the ordinary days. The Dream Weaver moves between moments of profound clarity and a subtle doubt, and this oscillation can feel disorienting if you don't understand what's actually happening. It looks like an inconsistency from the outside. But from the inside, it's the soul integrating. The vision... real. The path... real. What's needed is the kind of deep rest that lets what you already know settle into the cells of the body, so it stops being something you pursue and becomes something you simply are. When you recognize yourself as a Dream Weaver, the gap between your vision and your lived reality stops feeling like evidence that something is wrong... and starts feeling like fertile ground. Rest becomes part of the work of becoming. Each practice is an act of integration, letting your inner knowing root itself more deeply into your actual life. Every month we will explore one of these states more deeply and in the fourth state you'll feel into how to honour what you already know, how to let rest become the bridge between vision and embodied reality, and what it means to trust the pace of your own unfolding.

This resonates with a long standing belief of mine that I have to move away from the “goal directed path” that I hals always been taught was the only way forward. I have moved to a place in which I seek to follow a deeper process that is driven by my spirit and critically held values….then to trust the process to get me to where I should be. I think you have captured this in much more beauty than I have! But it comes down to trusting the process and I think that Nidra will help light the way. I want to be surprised and in awe of where I am on the journey which by definition can never have an end.

"I'm so tired. But even when I lie down, I can't seem to actually rest." If you've said something to this effect, even just to yourself, I want you to know I hear you. And I want to share something that might bring a little relief. What you're describing has a name. In the yogic tradition, we understand the body as the first and most foundational layer of our experience... the Annamaya Kosha, or the food body. When this layer is struggling, rest feels impossible even when we desperately want it. The nervous system stays switched on. Sleep doesn't fully restore. There's a kind of bone-deep fatigue that just seems to linger no matter what you do. This is the state of the Rooted One — someone whose body is asking, very quietly and very persistently, for permission to feel safe. This is one of the five states I've been mapping in my work, and it's where so many people find themselves without ever realizing it (OVER 38% OF YOU)! The exhaustion feels personal. It feels like a failure. But it's actually the body doing exactly what it was designed to do (protect you) and just needing a little help learning that it's okay to stop. WHAT UNDERSTANDING THIS CAN OPEN UP FOR YOU When you can recognize yourself in this state, something subtly shifts. You stop fighting your body and start listening to it. Even simple things... the way you breathe, the way you transition into rest... begin to feel different. Sleep becomes more accessible, and that low hum of tension starts to ease. You don't have to overhaul your life. You just have to learn the language your body is already speaking. To learn more, join our VIP Supporters and gain access to our LIVE Rooted Ones Experience. We're starting right here, with the body layer, and I'll walk you through what it actually means to come home to yourself. Gently. Without pressure. Just a grounded conversation and a practice to bring you back to rest and community.

The truth for me these days is waking up regularly at night wondering if the idiot has started a new war, killed, kidnapped or otherwise harmed more innocent people. I find that r I can recover some during each day by engaging yoga nidra throughout my day. I am deeply greatfull for your work on rest. Thank you
🌙 The replay is live — and it's one you'll want to return to.
On Earth Day, we gathered to introduce what has been taking shape through years of one-on-one sessions, group work, and teacher trainings. The States of Rest framework is here. Five archetypal patterns. One question: what's actually standing between you and the rest? Whether you're someone who can't seem to land in your body, someone who thinks their way to exhaustion, or someone who's had a taste of deep peace and can't quite get back there... There's a map for you inside this session. We covered: 🌳 The 5 States of Rest and what they reveal about your relationship with rest 🌊 The shadow side of each archetype (this is where the real work begins) ✨ A full guided Yoga Nidra practice woven through all five states WATCH REPLAY is available for VIP supporters. If that's not you yet, this is a beautiful moment to upgrade. 🔗 UPGRADE HERE ⏳ Also, only 25 spots left to take the States of Rest Quiz. Find out which archetype is most alive in you right now. It takes just a few minutes, and honestly? People are saying it's already shifting something. 👉 Comment REST, if you would like to take the quiz! Rest isn't one-size-fits-all. And now you have a framework to prove it.

This exploration of rest offered me a vision into a much more complex aspect of our experience in the world than I typically have thought. Loved every minute and very much liked the weaving of the learning community as we move forward. Loved every minute!! Thank you all.
ONE MORE SLEEP | States of Rest
You know what you want. Not in a vague way. In a very specific, felt-sense way. You can picture the version of yourself who is rested, aligned, at peace. You know what they do in the morning. You know how they carries themself. You've been close to this version of you before. And then life pulls you sideways and you're back to wondering.... why you can't just... Be there. You think the answer is more discipline. ... A better routine. ... Finally getting consistent. But that's not actually what's missing. The vision is clear. Your nervous system just doesn't know How to live inside it yet. You're learning to let the body catch up to what the mind can already see. This is the fourth state... Tomorrow I'm revealing what it's called. LIVE! If you haven't taken the quiz yet, tonight is your last chance to find out which state is yours before the reveal. SIGN UP HERE for tomorrow's on the States of Rest And if this one sounds like you... Drop "Yes" below. I read every one.
