Nidra: recovery through sleep

Nidra takes you into a state of sleep in which you stay conscious. You do not reach it on the first try: it is a technique, and it is learned.
In practice:
  • A resting position, most often lying down.
  • Guided techniques, chosen from the assessment.
  • Sessions of thirty to forty-five minutes.
  • Online, like the rest of the programme.
  • A recording for the days on your own.

What we work on

Body
The release of the body, led step by step.
Attention

Sleep
The states between waking and sleep.
Voice
The session is guided from start to finish.

Nidra is a deep practice done in a resting position, usually lying down.

Through different guided techniques, we work with the release of the body, with attention, and with the states between waking and sleep.

This is not simply passive listening: the session is directed, and attention has a precise place in it.

Why nidra in Reset

Nidra includes different practices that we can adapt and use to learn to enter a state of rest more deeply, particularly when the mind usually has trouble switching off.

Like the other two disciplines, nidra is not applied in the same way to everyone. The techniques chosen come from the assessment, and the first week serves to observe the ones you respond to best.

The practices chosen are recorded. On the days we do not practise together, you take them up again with the recording.

A guided session

Three stages in each session

Nidra is practised lying down, online, for thirty to forty-five minutes.
01
Settling the body
You lie down, and the body finds the position it will hold.
02
The release
The voice leads the release of the body, without you having to look for it.
03
The threshold
Attention is held while you approach the state between waking and sleep.
To get started
