Yoga Nidra at
Tri Resonance

Often called "yogic sleep," yoga nidra is a guided meditation that leads you into a state of deep physical, mental and emotional relaxation. While your body rests in a state similar to sleep, your mind remains gently aware, allowing you to access the theta brain wave state, the space where deep healing and cellular repair occur.

Some say 30 minutes of yoga nidra is the equivalent of 2-4 hours of sleep. Meditation of all kinds reduces stress, reactivity and awareness and increases calm, quality sleep and connection to self.

Very little! Yoga Nidra involves no physical movement or yoga poses. All you need to do is sit or lay still and follow the sound of my voice.

Traditional meditation often requires focus or emptying the mind while sitting. Yoga nidra is about surrender. You lie down and follow the practitioner’s voice, who will guide you through breathing and relaxation techniques, making it much more accessible for those who find sitting still and quieting the mind difficult.

It is very common to drift off! While the goal is conscious sleep (staying aware), if your body needs rest, it will take it. You will still receive the vibrational benefits of the crystal bowls and the subconscious benefits of guided meditation.

Absolutely. Many Tri Resonance clients combine a yoga nidra session with the PEMF mat, an ambient sound bath and/or Reiki, or you can opt for yoga nidra before or after vibrational sound therapy. In most 90-120 minute sessions, clients can choose two modalities per visit, giving you many options.

It can be. Because my approach is trauma-informed and client-centered, Yoga Nidra is offered in a gentle, supportive way that honors your comfort and choice. You are always in control of your experience and are encouraged to participate only in ways that feel right for you. Many people find Yoga Nidra helps calm the nervous system, reduce stress, improve sleep, and support emotional well-being. If you have significant trauma or PTSD, I encourage you to discuss any concerns with your healthcare provider and with me before your session so we can determine whether it is an appropriate fit for your individual needs.

Absolutely. For only a small extra fee, you can choose to lie on the mat to receive the benefits while also immersed in sound and energy healing.

Also called the Rainbow Chakra Healing Mat, a PEMF mat is a 40”x20” multi-layered wellness device that combines several therapeutic elements into one surface, including pulsed electromagnetic field (PEMF), infrared heat, red light (photon) therapy, and seven different natural gemstones. The 16-pound mat isn’t only warming your skin. It emits low-frequency magnetic pulses and negative ions to promote healing, collagen production and relaxation in your muscles and joints. 

The mat is not recommended if you:

• Are pregnant, trying to become pregnant, or nursing

• Have a pacemaker, defibrillator, or any type of implant, including those that release medication and/or insulin

• Currently have cancer and/or recently completed chemotherapy or radiation

• Suffer from an arrhythmia or heart disease

• Have epilepsy

• Have an open wound or active skin infection and/or have been using steroid or cortisone ointments long-term

You must speak with your physician prior to using the mat if you have any of the following conditions, diseases, or disorders:

• Cardiovascular, including heart disease, hypertension, and vascular disease

• Chronic headaches

• Liver or kidney disorders

• Anorexia

• Diabetes

• MS and/or chronic muscle fatigue

• Rheumatoid arthritis or osteoporosis

Regular users report improved circulation and sleep, as well as some relief from stress, anxiety and depression. The hot stone PEMF mats also help people who suffer from stress, back pain, muscular pain and fibromyalgia.
