What is Yoga Nidra? Yoga Nidra is basically a guided meditation experienced while lying down and resting in that sweet place between consciousness and unconsciousness. It is like an extended Savasana--the yogic sleep pose that we usually practice at the end of a yoga class. As described by Eckhart Yoga, "The practice draws our attention inwards, and we learn to surf between the states of wakefulness and sleep, where our body finds its natural state of equilibrium (homeostasis) – the breath balances and becomes quiet, unconscious and conscious aspects of the mind reveal themselves, and we fall into an innate state of deep, blissful awareness."

Have you ever watched a cat curled up in the sunlight in a supremely comfortable position, purring quietly with eyes half closed? Cats are masters of this type of "blissful awareness". During our Yoga Nidra with Cats session, we will look to our feline friends for inspiration as we prepare our bodies and minds for the experience of guided yogic rest. During the guided meditation, the meditative, mindful energy, and perhaps even the warmth, softness, and purring, of the cats will surround and support us. Occasional bursts of feline energy will keep our minds present and help us to hover in that space between consciousness and unconsciousness.
Whether you're curious to experience Yoga Nidra for the first time or ready to take your Yoga Nidra practice to another dimension, Yoga Nidra with Cats might be just the thing for you. Come prepared for a short Yoga warmup, a time to commune with the cats as you set an intention, and then about a half hour of a guided savasana, followed by a transition back to full wakefulness. Please bring any props from the list below so that you can experience the supreme comfort enjoyed by resting felines around the world.
