Wow! What an exceptional Nidra. Thank you, Ayla!🙏
I really appreciated the breathing exercises prior to the official practice, as I have been desperate for Ease and Equanimity for weeks now. ☮️☯️ Thank you.
And the body scan was one of my favorites, as it helped me to visualize and sense each vertebra, individually. I found it quite helpful to focus on the muscles around the spinal column as well and got a great deal of physical and mental relief from this practice.
The use of music was creative, effective and enjoyable, and your voice was clear, calm, and beautiful all the way through.
Fantastic job, Ayla!🙏🤌💗🧘♀️
Thank you Tori! I appreciate your kind words. I am grateful that you enjoyed the music in this Nidra! I have been trying to track down the music from Rewire the Brain and with no luck so I love knowing there is another track you connect with too. Every one of your vertebra are going to LOVE annamaya kosha in your tailored nidra!!!
What a beautiful practice. It is interesting to observe acceptance and resistance, and how they affect our bodies like if we were in a river flowing with it or swimming against the stream. Moreover, a good Thich Nath Hanh reminder is mindful breathing to bring our mind back home, to this very present moment. Thank you so much, Ayla.
I am forever grateful for his words and poetry. Always reminding us to come home! Thank you for being here, Fernando! Wishing you a wonderful evening!
Thank you 🙏🏽 for your post. I love your series I discovered it the other day for the first time and not familiar with yoga at all. My state of anxiety has dropped significantly since I start listening. Bless you❤
thank you for being here @tishguerrero 🖤✨ you've picked my favorite kind of yoga to start your journey! Thank you for sharing your experience this is so encouraging for those who are also new to the practice!
I was experiencing a sharp tickling in my throat causing me to cough violently at the beginning of this practice. (Allergies)
But once I was able to connect with my sankalpa it all just drifted away.
My sankalpa is 'I am healing'
I realised that this is not simply something that is happening to me. Healing is a way of being. Both giving and receiving.
Thank you, as always x
This is not yoga nidra
Thank you for being here, Myriam. I am sorry my Yoga Nidra did not resonate with you, I hope you find another Nidra practice that aligns for you.
"Healing is a way of being." I feel this, too. I am grateful to hear that you have landed on a Sankapla that brings this beautiful essence!
Boungiorno, Alya! My wife and I are enjoying our first trip to Italy this week, and your yoga nidras have helped to deal with jet lag. This new one is a real joy. Grazie.
I should have put more Italian words in this one so you could learn it through the subconscious. However, that would mean I would also have to learn Italian... I am so excited for you and your wife! I hope you have the most amazing time!
Thank you. This Nidra is what I needed this morning. Blessings 🙏
Morning Nidra’s are my favourite Nidra’s
Thank you so much! My soul sends you a smile. Namaste
As always. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.❤
My heart is grateful for your heart! Thank you, Roya 🖤✨
This was lovely and needed. I enjoyed the experience of letting go of attachment to both acceptance and resistance. The little clicks when you stumble are adorable.😂
Oh boy! I am so grateful you can find the charm in it. I managed to fix it as soon as I saw your message. I hope everyone could take my editing malfunction on this one lightly. I appreciate you for appreciating me... especially, when my true human-ness comes through. Sending you many thanks!
Exquisite!! Listening to your beautiful and soothing voice💖💖💖
Absolutely beautiful and peaceful. Thank you 💛

A gateway to Miracles?! 🥹🖤✨ You are an earth angel. Thank you MysticGuardian!
Thank you Ayla❤ this was what I needed 😊 I am struggling to sleep at night for quite a while now, and tried this yoga nidra to relax. It is 14 pm in the Netherlands. Maybe if I start doing this during the day, I might eventually fall asleep . At the moment there is no reason to not be able to sleep at night, but It is as if my brain just doesn’t know how to fall asleep anymore. Maybe this will help me ? Thank you 🙏
Hey, Christine, ik doe yoga nidra sinds augustus en ben zo veel meer ontspannen, evenwichtiger en dat helpt me dan weer om beter te slapen. Ik hoop dat het dat bij jou ook uit gaat werken! 😊
Dankjewel Jolanda , ik ga het zeker proberen 😊
I have two thoughts here…
(1) If you want to practice during the day, you will likely begin to sleep better at night, too. However, I suggest practicing in the morning if you can.
(2) If you are resting awake while in bed, the body will eventually not associate your bed with sleep. So, in this case, you could practice yoga Nidra or try getting out of bed without looking at your electronics, wait until you feel sleepy, and return to your bed.
Let me know how it goes!
Thanks 4 your help appreciated 👍😁
And thank you for being here,Jason! 🖤✨
Thank u ❤❤
thank you for being here Anna Maria🖤🙏✨
Working through guilt and worry to do a longer session, but here I am. I liked the exercises you incorporated. I feel resistance around my mouth and teeth. I wonder if that's common. Thank you for the practice 🙏🏽 I needed a longer session today but didn't know if my inner critic would allow me to do it. I just pushed through it though 😅
It’s funny you say that. I was working today and observed myself bearing down on my teeth. I took a breath and had to soften my jaw. Then moments later, caught myself doing it again…
Not only do I believe this is common to experience but I also believe it has been made conscious. It can be the bodies way to say… Hi, it’s me, sending a little message for you to pay attention to me.
Also, I know it’s can be challenging to make time for ourselves so I am proud of you for resting and creating this connection with yourself. 🖤✨ You are worthy of rest.
@@AylaNovaNidra Thank you Ayla. I'm working on it, making time here and there to rest even if it's just a few minutes. It does make a difference. Sometimes I don't feel it in the moment but I notice I'll have more energy later on that I didn't expect to have. Plus it feeds into overall well-being.
As far as the topic on self awareness, I wonder to what extent am I really aware of myself (my actions, my habits, what my body says, and what's going on in my mind). It's a lot to keep track of. Today's world doesn't really allow time for self reflection or even awareness during the hustle and bustle. But I do think yoga nidra, meditation, it any kind of think that mashed you take pause or rest can help with awareness. Even just talking about it contributes. I hope you have a great weekend 😊
Lovely. Thank you!
And Thank you for practicing with me! 🖤✨
Thank you ❤️🙏❤️
Thank you for being here 🖤✨
Thank you! I wonder if you have a session on being present or living in the present moment?
I do! th-cam.com/video/QmjySvVcF-8/w-d-xo.htmlsi=YppgTIlHZPzZVQ4c check this one out! Inspired by Eckhart Tolle!
@@AylaNovaNidra thank you! I will check it out! I think not living in the present is something i need to work on too.
thank you
Thank you for being here 🖤✨

My mine does not want to stay in the present moment. How?
The choice to remove ourselves from the present is often more ingrained or familiar. This is why yoga nidra and meditation are a practice. Don't let this trouble you-you are doing better than you think. Tell this inner narrative, "Thank You," and then compassionately turn down the volume as you connect with the movement/sound of your breath and return to my voice.
@@AylaNovaNidra Thanks

There is a strange noise at minute 18:13
Thank you for letting me know! I was able to fix it cut it out from TH-cam. I am not sure what happened there. I appreciate you sharing this with me!
There's a noise in minutes 36, too, and another one earlier, not sure of the minute. It's a tongue click
@@jenp1743 thanks Jen. Must not have fully returned from the nidra state while editing. Sometimes I stumble. 😉 I appreciate you both found them and was able to clear out the sound.
