Yoga Nidra

"Yoga Nidra" or "Yoga Sleep" is very Ancient Indian Art of Rejuvenating our whole body. It involves a process of revolving your conscious mind on our entire body. Following are the steps involved - 1. We have to lay down on our back on a flat bed without pillow with both of our hands on sideways with palms looking the ceiling. Don't stretch your legs too far from each other. 2. Now feel your body points that are touching the mattress. 3. Take long breath. Deep inhalation and slow exhalation of air for three times. 4. Concentrate on sounds around you. Starting from listening outside noises from long distances and slowly coming back to the noises of the room (for example sound of your room's ceiling fan etc.) you are resting in. 5. After few minutes of relaxation, Resolve yourself with a positive suggestion. For example if you want to quit a bad habit like smoking, then instead of saying yourself that "I will stop smoking", being a negative suggestion, give yourself a positive suggestion that "I will keep good health" or "I will maintain good health". 6. After that, start watching slowly your whole body with your conscious mind starting from your right hand fingers to your left leg toes. In this process there are different methods. The main object of this revolving your conscious mind on each and every part of your body is to make them Relax. So do this very slowly (in the beginning days you can do this quickly) and rejuvenate each and every part of your body including eyes, ears, lips, neck, throat, chest, limbs, thighs, spinal cord etc. 7. After that, you imagine yourself - a) Sitting on a beach of a sea shore watching tides b) Watching beautiful mountains covered with greenery. c) Watch Sun raising and Sun setting. d) Imagine yourself on a top of mountain and watching night sky with moon and stars There is no limit, wherever your feels pleasant, you can imagine being there. For example in a beautiful garden watching colorful flowers etc. In the beginning days you will fall into sleep. But try to avoid. There is no harm even if you fall into a deep sleep. After your above mentioned journey, slowly come back and start listing sounds in your room. And slowly relax and again you revolve your conscious mind on your entire body and bring back each and every part of your body into conscious. After all the above process, you will definitely feel rejuvenated and relaxed.
