Yoga Nidra & Restorative Yoga Workshop (Hybrid)

Reconnect with your body. Regulate your nervous system. Return to ease. Join Kerry Sullivan for a session that pairs deeply supported Restorative Yoga with Yoga Nidra. The practice begins in restorative postures in which the body settles into supported shapes with props and guided awareness. This invites stillness, release, and replenishment for both body and mind.

From there, participants lie down in Savasana and are guided through the various stages of Yoga Nidra. While similar to meditation, Yoga Nidra differs in that it brings the practitioner into a "wakeful dream state" between wakefulness and sleep. While in this deeply relaxed state, the brain transitions to the theta wave state, an altered state of consciousness and gateway to the subconscious mind. Moving further into the delta state supports physiological healing and restoration. There are no yoga asanas to master here — simply get comfortable and follow Kerry's voice as she guides you into total calm of mind and body. Thirty minutes of Yoga Nidra is said to be equivalent to 2–4 hours of restorative sleep.

Together, these practices nourish the nervous system, increase mobility, and foster a deeper connection to yourself. Classes move at a comfortable, accessible pace and are open to all levels, including beginners.

MEET KERRY : Kerry's love for movement begin when she was a little girl attending dance classes. Dance became an outlet for her as she navigated the twists and turns of life. When she discovered yoga 16 years ago, she fell in love with the practice and found a sense of peace in her body and spirit. Soon after, she began teaching yoga through Shape Up NYC and in 2015 she received her 200hr certification through Yoga Alliance at Tula Yoga in 2015. She has trained in Reiki, IET, and Craniosacral therapy. Kerry has also studied Myofascial Release with Maria Alfieris. She received her birth and postpartum Doula training through Healthy Women, Healthy Futures with DONA teachers Debra Pascali-Bonaro and Amadoma Bediako along with completing the Radical Birth Keeper School of Free Birth Society in December of 2020.

Kerry is passionate about creating a supportive space where individuals can reconnect to the innate wisdom of their bodies, cultivate wholehearted self-love, and embrace self-care as a meaningful and sustainable practice. Inspired by the modalities that have supported her own growth, she shares her knowledge with the hope of empowering others with tools for their own unique journeys.
