EcoNIDRA at Namaspa Yoga Community
EcoNIDRA is a gentle and restorative meditation-like practice that guides us back into connection with ourselves and the earth. It is a blend of the ancient practice of yoga nidra and forest therapy. Unlike some forms of meditation that require active concentration, EcoNIDRA allows you to simply let go and be guided into a state of deep relaxation. It brings us to a deep state of non-doing that helps us sleep better, reduce stress, and restore profound peace, relaxation and rejuvenation to the body. EcoNIDRA practice can have the same effect as 3-4 hours of deep, restful sleep.

Forest bathing
Give yourself the gift of slowing down, breathing with the trees, and reconnecting with the earth. Slow, gentle, sensory, and immersive, forest bathing starts off with a guided meditation deepening into each of the senses, and then you’ll be led through a series of invitations that offer the opportunity for deeper relaxation and connection with ourselves and the earth. These slow, riveting walks through nature reduce stress and anxiety, boost our immunity, helps us sleep better, and so much more.
