Yoga Nidra

Yoga Nidra is a simple, efficient and pleasant form of relaxation / meditation developed by the modern yoga master Swami Satyananda Saraswati (1923-2009).
Yoga Nidra means "yogic sleep" and refers to a state of consciousness where body and mind are in deep sleep, as in sleep, while a part of our consciousness is constantly alert and observe everything that happens in the body and the mind. The benefits of being in this state of mind are numerous:

* Deep-physical, mental and emotional stress released

* Body and mind gets very effective rest and recovery

* Yoga Nidra reduces the negative effects of stress such as heart disease, high
blood pressure, sleeping problems, etc.

* The effects of Yoga Nidra continues even after the exercise and we are becoming more aware and
relaxed in everyday life, even in situations that would otherwise be experienced as stressful

* We can in this relaxing and sleep-like state to learn to witness the thoughts, feelings
and images that rise up from our subconscious mind without identifying with them,
which increases our self-knowledge

 In the full version app, you also get the opportunity to redesign and develop your personality by using a "Sankalpa", a decision that is planted deep in your subconscious and lead the thoughts, feelings and behavior in a certain direction
