New piece on Yoga Nidra that's close to my heart... exploring how the deepest transformation from surrendering. READ ARTICLE Weaved in the article is ancient philosophy, my own healing journey through a rare leukemia, and the radical act of rest in our achievement-obsessed culture. I dive into how Yoga Nidra sits at the intersection of Shiva (pure awareness) and Shakti (creative force), and why lying down might be one of the most powerful practices we have. The piece explores: - The myth of Vishnu resting on the cosmic ocean while worlds are born - The Five koshas (Layers of Being) we move through in stillness - How my relationship with Yoga Nidra shifted from fascination to medicine - Why rest reveals both light and shadow... and why we need both One line that kept coming back to me: "To rest in the deepest 'Self', one must first seek. Yet to seek too hard is to miss the rest." I'm curious... SHARE BELOW What resonated with you the most in the article!? Would love to hear your insights. 💫

I've been sitting with gratitude today... The kind that notices the little things. The text that came at the right time. The body that kept showing up. The moment you let yourself rest without guilt. I have included a Yoga Nidra practice for us. It's below if you need it. Sometimes we just need permission to take rest, and I am here to remind you... you can. Yoga Nidra for Gratitude I want to ask you something, and I really mean it: What's one thing that supported you this week? Maybe it was a person. Maybe it was your own resilience. Maybe it was finally sleeping through the night, or the way the light looked yesterday morning, or simply... being in the presence of loved ones. COMMENT below if you feel called to share. I'll be reading every one. And honestly... Sometimes seeing what others are grateful for reminds us of what we may have missed noticing in our own lives. JOIN THE NOVA NIDRA SUPPORTERS TODAY 🧡✨

Two years ago, Ayla and I had a magical trip to my favourite place, Sayulita, Mexico. Alya hadn’t had a vacation in six years and I needed to escape my cohabitation-separation with my now ex-husband. So we thought “let’s get the heck outta here..” We hadn’t planned to go for Day of the Dead but it worked out that way and what followed was an incredibly magical week of synchronous rest and connection — to eachother, ourselves and the beautiful town that has stolen my heart. (The pictures are of us from that trip!) After that week, I promised I would go back down for this particular celebration whenever possible so that I could participate in the celebration of death that the Mexican culture has cultivated so beautifully and so generously shares with their visitors. Over the last two years I have experienced many forms of death: a great Aunt, a good friend, a family pet, my ego (a few times), attachments, identity, relationships, habits, and old patterns. I am currently writing this on descent into the Puerta Vallarta airport and tomorrow I am celebrating the death of these things as well as the subsequent growth and life I’ve been blessed to experience in the last two years. Beauty from ashes. Of course, I couldn’t have done it without the restorative support of Yoga Nidra, the Peace in Rest program and this community. Shout out to y’all!!! Tomorrow, I am laying a lot to rest. May it Rest in Peace. ❤️‍🔥💀 I shall report back! P.S. Do you have a special or magical place that you travel to for renewal or have experienced deep healing in?? Please share!! ✈️
