Yoga Nidra — often called “Yogic Sleep” — is a powerful guided meditation practice that leads you into a state between waking and sleeping. Unlike regular sleep, where you lose awareness, Yoga Nidra keeps your mind awake while your body experiences deep relaxation.
At Kapil Wellness, our Yoga Nidra program is designed to help you release physical tension, mental stress, and emotional blockages. It combines traditional Art of Living techniques with the ancient roots of Ayurveda and yoga, creating a holistic healing experience for both beginners and advanced practitioners.
The word Nidra means “sleep” in Sanskrit — hence, Yoga Nidra in Hindi translates to योग निद्रा, symbolising conscious rest and complete stillness of the mind. When practiced regularly, it becomes a gateway to self-awareness, inner peace, and better health.
Many confuse Yoga Nidra with Yoga Nidrasana (the yogic sleep pose). While Yoga Nidrasana is an advanced physical posture performed in traditional yoga, Yoga Nidra is a guided meditative practice that anyone can do — lying comfortably on the floor with closed eyes and following verbal instructions. Both lead to deep rest and inner alignment but differ in physical intensity.
"Yoga Nidra activates the parasympathetic nervous system — calming your mind, reducing cortisol levels, and releasing stress accumulated in the body. It’s often called “the ultimate relaxation therapy.”
"Regular practice improves sleep quality, relieves insomnia, and helps you wake up refreshed. It also enhances focus, creativity, and emotional stability — perfect for those struggling with anxiety or overthinking."
"Through guided visualization, Yoga Nidra allows you to observe and release suppressed emotions safely. It fosters emotional intelligence, self-compassion, and inner peace.""
"When the body reaches deep relaxation, cellular repair and toxin elimination begin. This rejuvenates energy flow, improves digestion, and supports overall vitality — similar to the restorative benefits of Panchakarma."
"Unlike demanding yoga postures, Yoga Nidra requires no physical effort. It can be practiced by people of all ages and fitness levels — including seniors, working professionals, and beginners looking for natural stress management."
At Kapil Wellness, each session is guided by trained instructors using authentic Art of Living Yoga Nidra methods. You’ll experience 40–45 minutes of guided relaxation, breath awareness, body scanning, and intention setting (Sankalpa), followed by a soothing reawakening.
