About iRest Yoga Nidra
"Mind-body approaches to health, healing and well-being"
Based on the ancient teachings of meditation, iRest Yoga Nidra® is an evidence-based mind-body transformative practice that leads to psychological, physical, and spiritual healing and well-being.
iRest meditation is integrative as it heals the various unresolved issues, emotions, feelings and traumas that are present in your body and mind, and restorative as it enables you to recognize your innate peace of mind that is always present in all changing circumstances of life (Therefore, this practice is called Integrative Restoration = iRest)
Research reveals that mindfulness-based practices, such as iRest, are analogous to neural training regimens, targeting core body, mind, and brain skills and functionings that are important for success, resiliency, and well-being in daily life. These practices are especially effective as they target brain plasticity in the areas of sensory, motor, and limbic and prefrontal cortical functioning. Thus, iRest is an ideal intervention for reshaping neural pathways critical to fostering emotional self-regulation, ethical decision-making, resiliency, enhancement of cognitive and emotional skills, development of empathy and well-being, as well as improving overall physical and mental health. Research indicates that iRest effectively alleviates Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), anxiety, insomnia, chronic pain, depression and chemical dependency.
iRest provides you with tools to help you relax deeply, release stress, increase resiliency, improve your interpersonal relationships and provide you with greater mastery and control in your life.
