Reclaiming Rest: A Meditation for Deeper...

Lilly Macfarlane
About this episode

This guided Yoga Nidra practice invites you to unwind, release tension, and prepare the mind and body for deep, restorative rest. Whether you’re easing into sleep or craving a moment of calm before bed, this meditation will help you soften into stillness and reclaim your natural rhythm of rest.

You can also enjoy this practice in the afternoon, a dreamy way to reset during that mid-day lull. Think of it as a guided nap: a moment to consciously rest, recharge, and return to your day with renewed clarity and ease.
