Yoga nidra is an ancient but little-known yogic practice that's becoming increasingly popular as both a form of meditation and a mind-body therapy. It is a systematic form of guided relaxation. When practiced successfully, this technique is as restorative as sleep—except you remain fully aware throughout.

As a meditation technique, yoga nidra offers a gentle approach, starting with body awareness then working compassionately with thoughts and emotions as they arise and gradually leading the meditator to access a greater field of awareness. Practitioners say that it often brings immediate physical benefits, such as reduced stress and better sleep, and that it has the potential to heal psychological wounds. As a meditation practice, it can engender a profound sense of joy and well-being.
