Yoga Nidra is a guided practice of deep relaxation and conscious rest. Here is what it is, what a session feels like, and how to begin — in the Satyananda tradition taught at Shankar Prasad Ashram.
_Draft outline — fill each section in Swamiji’s words, then publish. Nothing here is claimed as fact yet._
[Write a plain 2–3 sentence definition: Yoga Nidra as "psychic sleep", a guided lying-down practice between waking and sleeping. Keep it simple, no jargon.]
[Describe the arc of one session as it is done here: settling, the body rotation, breath awareness, the sankalpa (resolve). What does a guest actually experience?]
[List honestly what the practice is used for at the ashram — rest, stress, sleep, deeper awareness. Avoid medical claims. Speak from experience, not promises.]
[A short, true paragraph on the Bihar School of Yoga tradition and how Swamiji teaches it. Link to the /about/satyananda-yoga page.]
[Point to the Yoga Nidra Foundation course and the free daily practice. Invite the reader to write or visit. Link to /offerings.]
