Whether you're navigating the challenges of substance abuse, technology dependency, food-related struggles, or other forms of addiction, this Yoga Nidra session is designed to support you on your healing journey. Join Ayla Nova in this healing practice and discover compassionate understanding inspired by the insightful teachings of Dr. Gabor Maté.

Together, we'll explore the multifaceted nature of addiction—acknowledging it as a reaction to underlying pain, longing, or unmet needs—rather than viewing it as a personal failing. This practice is an invitation to all, regardless of the specific challenges you face, offering a pathway through the difficulties of addiction with grace and self-compassion.

'Addiction is not a choice that anybody makes; it’s not a moral failure. What it actually is: it’s a response to human suffering.'
— Dr. Gabor Maté

🌙 Session Focus:
• Healing and Self-Renewal: Addressing the roots of addiction to foster healing and renewal.
• Radical Self-Acceptance: Cultivating self-acceptance for inner peace amidst life's adversities.
• Deep Relaxation: Enhancing sleep and self-connection through profound relaxation.

Join me, Ayla Nova, on a restful journey through the practice of Yoga Nidra; together, we dive into the depths of stillness and peace for a deep restorative sleep. Drawing from the wisdom of Lao Tzu, we're reminded that a quiet mind unveils the universe's secrets, offering a path to deep rest and self-discovery. As you lay down, align your body and turn your attention inward to anchor you in the present. This session explores the inner self, a guided journey through the body that encourages every part to unwind. Through this practice, we connect with our Sankalpa—our innermost intentions and desires—integrating them into our being. This experience is an invitation to encounter the tranquillity within, leading to profound relaxation and a renewed sense of awareness.

This particular practice offers solace and sanctuary to those navigating through the dark nights of the soul. Whether you're grappling with the shadows of hard times, wrestling with depression, or simply seeking a moment of peace in a turbulent world, Yoga Nidra offers a doorway into the calmness we seek within. It’s a gentle yet powerful practice that teaches us to welcome all parts of ourselves with compassion and understanding, creating a foundation for radical self-acceptance and healing.

In our session today, we extend an invitation to you: to pause, to breathe, and to gently explore the inner world. Yoga Nidra guides us to a state of conscious relaxation, where the body finds rest while the mind remains awake and alert. This unique state allows us to tap into our innate resilience, promoting emotional balance, reducing stress, and easing symptoms of anxiety and depression. It’s an opportunity to reset and recharge, to release the burdens you've been carrying and to connect with a sense of inner peace that is both grounding a nd uplifting. As we journey together, let this practice be your gentle reminder that light does exist amidst the darkness, and with each breath, you have the power to illuminate the path back to your true self.

"I can be changed by what happens to me, but I refuse to be reduced by it." — Maya Angelou
