Product Description: One of the most enjoyable parts of a yoga class comes when we rest in savasana?the ?corpse? pose?and realize deep serenity, a sense of eff ortless joy, and a glimpse into our true nature as unqualified presence. How is this so? Master teacher Richard Miller explains that this experience is a manifestation of yoga nidra, the meditative state of mind-body union at the heart of all yoga practice. A powerful integration of book and CD audio learning, Yoga Nidra is an ancient tantric yoga path that leads to inner freedom. Th rough accessible language appropriate for any level of practice, Miller takes us step by step through the traditional techniques of relaxation and meditation to help us move toward the realization of ?unqualified presence??the ultimate aim of yoga?a goal unreachable through posture practice alone. Through his expert guidance, students will experience: ? Deep relaxation for relief from day-to-day stress ? The development of ?one-pointedness??a key to spiritual awakening ? Healing from painful emotions, such as fear, grief, and anger ? More eff ective and energizing sleep, and much more Suitable for both beginners and advanced practitioners?but new to most Westerners?Yoga Nidra provides an unmatched way to experience the culmination of the art of yoga, and the deeper physical, emotional, and spiritual rewards that are its promise.

I love this book and CD. The depth Richard Miller has to offer is boundless. When you are willing to simplify and pare down to the essentials -- this is the meditation for you. Many layers, many doorways into why we make things so complicated, when really it comes down to our most simple and personal understandings. Richard Miller shares this understanding in the form of mental, physical, and emotional ease. We can directly experience this kind of ease. It can be that simple.

Yoga Nidra may not necessarily be what some people are expecting. This form of guided meditation doesn't have you envisioning warm sunshine over the body or the sound of a babbling stream. Instead, you are guided through a series of sensing exercises as you examine the relationship between emotions and feelings and their effect on the body - eventually helping you to realize the duality created by the mind that ultimately causes suffering. For instance, you are asked to notice the constriction of the heart as you think about a time when you felt closed off to a person or situation. Then you are guided away from being directly in those feelings, observing them instead. I've been practicing this for some time in the form of vipassana meditation, ... Read More:

I am a 60-year-old woman who has struggled with severe insomnia since her mid-twenties. I have used many strategies to help with this, some with more success than others. This book and CD have been very useful tools for me. It's emphasis is a form of meditation that you can take with you into your daily life. I have only been practicing it for a month now (although I have long practiced yoga) with very promising results.

I give the book 2 stars but the accompanying disc was a waste. A very poor Yoga Nidra experience.
