Meditation is a practice that helps quiet the mind, regulate the nervous system, and reconnect you with your inner self. It’s not about stopping your thoughts—but learning to witness them with compassion, creating space for clarity and peace.
At Rooted Bliss Wellness, meditation sessions are grounded in the ancient practice of Yoga Nidra, a deeply restorative form of guided meditation known as “yogic sleep.” It’s designed to guide you into a deeply relaxed state while keeping a thread of awareness, helping you release tension, access your subconscious, and restore balance from within.
Meditation
What is Yoga Nidra?
Yoga Nidra, or “yogic sleep,” is a deeply restorative guided meditation that brings you into a state between waking and sleeping. Your body rests in stillness while your mind remains gently aware, creating space for deep relaxation, healing, and insight.
As your brain shifts into a calm, meditative state, you may access the deeper layers of the mind—where old thought patterns and emotional tension are stored. Through this practice, you’re invited to release what no longer serves you and plant a new intention (called a Sankalpa) to support your growth.
The entire experience is done lying down in Savasana (resting pose), while you're guided through body awareness, breath, and imagery to reach this peaceful and empowering state of consciousness.
