A collection of yoga nidras for restoring natural cycles of sleep and rest, in response to the exhausting effects of grind culture. They were designed to support energetic balance during various phases of your circadian rhythm: morning wakefulness, mid-afternoon slumber, evening wind-down, nightly sleep, middle-of-night alertness, and early-morning emotional dreams.
