Why Letting Go Can Feel Impossible
Many believe they haven’t let go because they haven’t made the effort. But often, the opposite is true. Letting go feels impossible when the nervous system is still interpreting something as a threat. The body doesn’t release danger through logic. It releases danger through safety. If your shoulders won’t drop, your jaw stays clenched, or your breath feels shallow, your body may still be protecting you from something that once mattered deeply. Yoga Nidra doesn’t ask the body to change. It creates conditions where change can happen naturally. When the body enters deep rest, the vagus nerve activates. Heart rate slows. Breathing deepens. Muscles receive the signal that it’s safe to soften. This is why release often happens after rest, not before it. ✨ Reflection Instead of asking “Why can’t I let this go?” Try asking, “What would help my body feel safe enough to soften?” SHARE What are you softening in your body today!?

@Ayla Nova realising that safety comes first, then soften.
New Recording Inquiry 🤩
Let's see! I am feeling called to tap into the collective for the next VIP Recording! I would love to record something special for you tomorrow. Part of my process is burning sage to clear the space, followed by palo santo to set intention before each recording session. I would love to know which season you're in and what you are exploring internally... SHARE BELOW What would support you this month? AND what length of Nidra would you enjoy to rest with the most!?

Release Happens in Layers
healing rarely arrives all at once. the body releases in layers, only at the pace it feels safe enough to move. the resistance is not the enemy... it is the teacher. you might feel something soften one week, then notice it return later in a subtler way. that doesn’t mean the practice 'didn’t work'. it means the nervous system trusts you enough to meet what’s underneath. yoga nidra supports this kind of layered healing because it doesn’t ask for resolution or force an outcome. it offers awareness. each time you return to rest, the body remembers that rest is possible again. and over time, what once needed protection begins to loosen on its own. ✨ reflect + SHARE what feels ready to soften right now? and what still feels protective? both belong.

Thank you. Less worst-case-scenario thinking. More rely on Trust…
5 Invitations to Consider for Your New Year 🎇
these are five invitations through the lens of yoga nidra and the koshas, layers of being. 1. ✧your body✧ what does your physical body need more of this year rest? warmth? slower mornings? a sense of safety you can feel in your bones? 2. ✧your energy✧ notice where your life force is flowing freely… and where it feels depleted? not everything needs effort some things need space. 3. ✧your mind and heart✧ what thoughts or emotional patterns are asking for?compassion? what softens when you stop arguing with yourself? 4. ✧your inner wisdom✧ beneath the noise… beneath the goals… there is a quiet knowing, what truth has been patiently waiting for you to listen? 5. ✧your capacity for peace✧ the part of you that is unaffected by last year … by “mistakes” … by stories this is there reminder… you are still here! you are always whole. this is how you can meet a new year not by reinventing yourself but by remembering your true self. layer by layer. we are still being invited by the year of the snake to shed what isn't ours. and today! choosing clarity ✧☽ presence ✧☽ and a nervous system that gets to feel at home. ✧☽ Cheers to beginning again… everyday.
