Yoga Nidra & Reiki with Kerry Sullivan

YOGA NIDRA FOR INSOMNIA

Insomnia can have many causes including mood disorders, added stress, lifestyle changes, medication, irregular work schedules, physical pain, hormonal changes and other various reasons. One might turn to unhealthy habits in order to cope with getting through the day upping caffeine intake or turning to other stimulants.

Missing sleep can affect one's health in a negative way and cause challenges with work, family or other relationships.

In this yoga Nidra and Reiki workshop, we will use this ancient practice as our guide to bring us into a more relaxed state to calm the nervous system and mind therefore prepping the body for better rest and healthier habits around sleep.

In the deepest stage of Yoga Nidra, delta brainwaves are accessed where healing and restoration occur at a deep-rooted level . Here the intellectual or logical mind takes a back seat so the seed you plant in this state is very powerful and bound to come true.  This is where we can set intentions for positive habits and routines around sleep. Those who attend can then use what they learn here to assist them on a daily basis.

During this practice Kerry will also offer short personal energy healing Reiki treatments to each practitioner to assist in releasing any energetic blocks or suppressed emotions.

Please note: there is no yoga asana; all that is needed is for the practitioner to get comfy and listen to the sound of Kerry's voice guiding them the through various stages of Yoga Nidra which induce total calm within the mind and body. It is said that 30 minutes of Yoga Nidra is equivalent to 2-4 hours of sleep in the body.

Common Benefits to Yoga Nidra :

• A calmer nervous system
• The release of negative thought patterns
• Help with insomnia, PTSD, depression, anxiety, and chronic pain.

Reiki is spiritually guided life energy known as Ki or Chi.  Ki is the non-physical energy used by healers. Chi flows through to harmonize imbalances that may be physical, mental or emotional. Using hands-on healing with light touch or above body hand placement (floating hands), this gentle, non-invasive modality can treat physical pain as well as depression, trauma, anxiety, stress, grief, and much more.
