EcoNidra at Namaspa Yoga
EcoNidra is practically effortless. No sweating, no special outfit, no core engagement, no "good posture." Just lying down and letting the body receive what it's been craving: deep, restorative rest with nature as the guide. It's a practice that slows everything down enough for the subconscious mind to receive new patterns, for the nervous system to recalibrate, and for the body to remember what safety feels like.

EcoNidra at Hanai
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 bathing. 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 at Shevlin Park
Forest bathing is a guided nature experience that blends mindfulness and connection with the natural world. It helps quiet the mental chatter and brings your attention into the present moment through your senses. By slowing down and tuning in, your body naturally shifts into a relaxed, restorative state, reducing stress and supporting overall well-being. More than just time outdoors, forest bathing is about building a meaningful, reciprocal relationship with nature, helping you feel grounded, connected, and a true sense of belonging in the world around you.
