Yoga Nidra in St Albans

Yoga Nidra

or yogic ‘sleep’ invites the nervous system to let go and deeply rest. It is a nourishing and gentle guided meditation for entering into an effortless state of being.

7:15 to 8:45pm Upstairs at The Yoga Hall monthly on Wednesdays:
24th September, 22nd October, 19th November, 17th December 2025

The monthly dates are the Wednesdays closest to the new moon where the still, inward focused cosmic energy facilitates relaxing into the state of awareness which is Yoga Nidra.

Lou Stanion trained with Uma Dinsmore-Tuli and the Yoga Nidra Network.

In Yoga Nidra, the body lies down. As you drop into stillness your physical body actually falls asleep, while your mind stays alert and follows the process. Sometimes the conscious mind falls asleep too, but the benefits of the practice are still felt.

Yoga Nidra will meet you where you are. It is a wonderful stress reliever and also helps with insomnia, low mood and pain management.

The Yoga Nidra scripts vary in imagery, but are often intimately connected to the natural world. All Nidras include a rotation of consciousness, guiding the mind around points inside the physical body.

We usually begin with a meditation and then an optional check in where you are invited to tune in to your intention for the Yoga Nidra.

We have space for 8 people only, so book early. There will be plenty of time to reflect, ask questions, and chat after the session.
You can also join the session online via Zoom.
