It is a fully guided accessible meditation practice that plays with the state between waking and sleeping\, allowing us to explore ‘being’ in a world of ‘doing’. \nImplemented in 8-week sections\, students will have the opportunity to learn about the origins of Yoga Nidra\, experience the many benefits and applications and explore a variety of tools such as visualisations\, Sankalpa\, breath awareness and relaxation techniques. We cover each stage of Yoga Nidra in-depth and delve into the science behind this powerful tool of the ‘yogic sleep’. \nEach week covers a new topic that builds upon the next. We encourage you to follow the weekly structure which progresses you through the course in a way that supports a fuller understanding of Yoga Nidra. However\, the course is self-paced and can be completed in whatever time frame suits you. Each week we invite you to reflect in the provided self-reflection journal. Observe yourself during your practice of Yoga Nidra and notice how it is enhancing\, supporting and inspiring your daily life. \nThis is an inclusive course. All bodies and levels of experience are welcome\, including absolute beginners. Throughout the course you are welcome to contact Swami Karma Karuna\, who will be available to help answer questions and offer support. You will also be invited to live Q&A sessions over zoom\, bi-monthly during the course. These will be recorded and uploaded to the course platform. The course is a total of 40 hours. All course content will be available to you for six months. \n\n[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]\n\nThe Benefits of Yoga Nidra\n[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]\n– Gives the senses a deep rest from the activities of contemporary society \n-Trains the mind to connect into tranquility effortlessly \n-Releases impressions from the past and anxieties about the future \n-Effective management in the management of stress\, anxiety\, insomnia & depression \n\n[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]\nPlease send any questions to education@anahata-retreat.org.nz\n[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]\nCLICK HERE TO PURCHASE THE COURSE THROUGH OUR THINKIFIC PAGE\n \n\n[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]\n\nSwami Karma Karuna\n[/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”10127″][vc_column_text]\n \nSwami Karma Karuna is a founding member and director of Anahata Yoga Retreat\, New Zealand\, and a dedicated\, intuitive yoga teacher with years of experience working with a wide range of people. \nFrom an early age\, she travelled exploring diverse spiritual traditions; finally dedicating herself to the yogic path\, guided by Swami Niranjanananda Saraswati. Swami Karma Karuna has received yoga training in Nepal\, India and Australia. She spends 3 months each year living and teaching in India at the home and sadhana place of Swami Satyananda.
