Develop a powerful practice of deep relaxation and transformative self-inquiry with this essential guide to yoga nidra, accompanied by downloadable audio meditations.

Yoga nidra is a practice devoted to allowing your body and mind to rest while your consciousness remains awake and aware, creating the opportunity for you to tap into a deeper understanding of yourself and your true nature. At its heart, yoga nidra is about waking up to the fullness of your life. In
Radiant Rest, Tracee Stanley draws on over twenty years of experience as a yoga nidra teacher and practitioner to introduce the history of yoga nidra, mind and body relaxation, and the surprising power of rest in our daily lives.

This accessible guide shares six essential practices arranged around the koshas, the five subtle layers of the body: the physical, energetic, mental, intuitive, and bliss bodies. It also offers shorter, accessible practices for people pressed for time. Each practice is explained through step-by-step instructions and ends with self-inquiry prompts. A set of guided audio meditations provide further instruction. Feel a greater sense of stability, peace, and clarity in all aspects of your life as you deepen your yoga nidra practice and discover its true power.

Editorial Reviews

Review

Radiant Rest is a glimmering wonder, both accessible and deep. Tracee leads us gently toward the threshold of dreaming and waking, where unforeseen miracles occur. Through the practice of yoga nidra, we travel beyond language and intellect into the deepest part of our being. This book is a transmission—a map to the liminal realm where all potentials reside.”—Kim Krans, author of New York Times–bestseller The Wild Unknown Tarot Deck and Guidebook
 
“Tracee Stanley is the voice and heart our world needs right now. Tracee is the master teacher’s teacher, as well as the welcoming and nurturing guide a beginner longs for. I am grateful for a teacher with as much depth, thoughtfulness, and ability to remind me that it is my birthright to be held by these practices.”—Chelsea Jackson Roberts, PhD, Peloton yoga and meditation teacher 
 
“Within this book lies the medicine the world most needs. In our stillness our salvation lies, and these words will get you there.”—Kate Northrup, bestselling author of 
Do Less
 
“A wise and beautiful call to honor rest as both our birthright and our portal to embodied intelligence. Tracee Stanley’s 
Radiant Rest shares the transformative power of yoga nidra with beginners and advanced practitioners alike; this work is vital for our world today.”—Elena Brower, best-selling author of Practice You
 
“Tracee Stanley is the medicine woman that shows up when you're done with fast food personal growth and you're ready for spiritual nectar. Sourced from the ancients and Tracee's devotion, 
Radiant Rest is gorgeously counter culture—which is why it's so healing.”—Danielle LaPorte, author of The Desire Map and Heart Centered
 
“Tracee's wisdom comes with an unparalleled level of depth and grace. Her grounded style of teaching allows your heart to open and soften so you can receive the transmission of deep healing, surrender, and inner peace. While these ancient teachings have stood the test of time, Tracee delivers them in a fresh way that feels somehow new, yet directly connected to the source from which they came. Prepare yourself to receive golden wisdom from a teacher who is deeply steeped in both practice and truth.”—Shannon Algeo, author of
Trust Your Truth, Host of SoulFeed podcast
 
“Tracee Stanley is a true embodiment of the promises held in the title of this book—
Radiant Rest. Tracee possesses a sparkly calm that emanates from her capacity to anchor into the body and the kindness of the heart. Use her words and the practices of yoga nidra to deepen your own relationship to rest, pleasure, and the type of beauty that can only arise out of a true connection to the present-moment self. I am a huge fan.”—Katie Silcox, author of New York Times Bestselling Healthy Happy Sexy, founder of The Shakti School

Radiant Rest is a heartfelt and transformative gift to a weary, traumatized world, urging us to take rest as a path of liberation. Tracee Stanley eloquently channels the blessings of this profound and necessary lineage into an accessible path of practice that embraces our most inclusive selves.”—Lama Rod Owens, author of Love and Rage, co-author of Radical Dharma

“Tracee Stanley is a magical and intuitive spiritual teacher and just the medicine we need at this time. Her teachings and this offering of Radiant Rest will serve as a healing pathway for us to shed the lies that prevent us from living into our wholeness and humanity. The rest Tracee teaches isn’t about slumbering, it is about awakening more fully to who we can be as individuals and a collective.”—Michelle C. Johnson, author of Skill in Action and Finding Refuge

A True Gem
This book is a true delight. It’s not just one of those books that tells you the importance of the topic discussed. Yes it dives into the History (eastern and western) of the Yoga Nidra practice, but it also guides you into creating a practice of your own with a collection of practices to work from. At the beginning Tracee offers a few ways you can incorporate the book for those who want to experience Deep Relaxation, for those who crave rest but have limited time, for teachers, and for seekers. And, as you go through the book you will learn about brain waves, you will learn about the connection Yoga Nidra has to sacred texts and you will meet Yoga Nidra as a goddess through myth. The true gem, however is a collection of Self-Inquiry questions that are woven through the chapters. Taken seriously these will allow you to create an intimate and personal Yoga Nidra practice. I hope you enjoy it as much as I have!

    Is there a 6th star possible?! If so, I would give it that. Or maybe a 7th. Radiant Rest is what I have been waiting for. A book that speaks to exactly what I need in exactly the way I need to read it and experience it. Radiant Rest is full of beautifully written information and well-thought out practices that are accessible, respectful, and applicable. Each practice is carefully crafted; they are the ultimate tools for your Self-Care toolbox. Tracee's embodiment of the words on these pages is palpable. The power of rest has never been more needed and Radiant Rest is full of ideas as to how to bring these tools into daily life. As a householder, the fact that there is a whole chapter that speaks to the reverence of this role is profound. A new perspective, a shift, and a sense of more self awareness and self compassion that is revealed in these pages. The book is written in a way that is digestible and I believe that over time, more and more will be revealed. I just got my copy and it is already dogeared and highlighted! I cannot recommend this book enough!

    This book was NEEDED in the world. Tracee has delivered a pure gem to all who seek the amazing experience of practicing this healing modality - whether they have heard of it before or not.

    I have studied, practiced, and led yoga nidra experiences for groups of people and I can tell you that there is so much desire in the world for the healing and rest that comes from this special practice, but so far the books I've come across on the subject have had only cripts to follow or are focused only on the science of rest. In contrast, Tracee wrote an inviting book that allows you to start to feel the ease and desire to embrace these practices in a really respectful and lovely approach. The experience of reading her book transmits the essence of yoga nidra.

    Tracee wrote a book that gives you the experience of being in the presence of this practice.
    It's informative, inspiring, and full of magic. Just staring at the images can invoke so much.

    I love yoga nidra. On a basic level, when I practice I feel my nervous system calming down and my physical body releasing tension in a way that doesn't happen with traditional sleep. And this is just the start of the benefits it provides. It continues to heal the layers of the body, including the conscious and unconscious mind.

    I'm really looking forward to spending more time with the audio practices that are so generously included with the book. The glossary of terms, extensive practices, and her self-inquiry questions make this book a companion that will continue to guide and support me.

    Thank you Tracee.

    Tracee Stanley has gifted us with an exquisite and insightful book. Not just a how-to manual for the practice of Yoga Nidra but a rich and robust resource for understanding the science and philosophy undergirding the practice. Tracee's tone is accessible and warm, her writing easy to read and her sensibility relatable and down to earth. Reading this book you can feel not just the longevity and depth of her own practice, the ease with which she conveys complex ideas and profound teachings but also her loving heart and warm disposition. You know that she's right there with you as a companion on the path, a fellow practitioner and a stalwart advocate for you to claim your birthright of rest and radiant wellbeing.

    A remarkably accessible book that is not just easy to read but also contains a comprehensive glossary and appendix as well as additional resources for learning. Simply put, a tour de force. Do yourself a favour by buying this book for you and for everyone you love.

    I have this book, both in written form and the audio version. It’s an introduction, and a deep reference book, one which may take some years to fully mine its treasures. 🙏💕 I will often listen when I’m driving, then put on one of the recorded practices on the Shambhala website or on the mighty networks app. I’m working towards self guiding for deeper transformation.

    Great resource! I completely recommend this beautiful, tiny, mighty book.

    This is the book that we ALL need right now. It is also a book for the ages that we will return to again and again. In Radiant Rest, brilliant guide, Tracee Stanley takes us on a journey to a place of deeper connection, truth, and more spacious living - a journey to our own hearts via the practice of Yoga Nidra. This book has soul. It's not a manual, nor is it prescriptive- and yet yoga teachers and students alike will learn how to anchor their practice in relationship. This book supports us in kindly examining our relationship to rest. It aids us in getting curious about the full impact of individually and collectively being so hurried, impatient, and busy that we don't have space to rest. This book is full of accessible practices that make you want to actually do them! Buy a copy for yourself and at least three friends. It's THAT empowering, wise, and just plain good.

    Foi a primeira compra internacional que fiz pela Amazon. O livro demorou pra chegar, entrei em contato pelo Reclame Aqui e me atenderam muito bem. Quanto ao conteúdo, é maravilhoso! Já conhecia a autora pois a sigo no instagram. O Yoga Nidra é um recurso incrível que uso em aulas de yoga para crianças, por isso adquirir o livro físico era muito importante pra mim. É de grande valia no planejamento de dinâmicas de relaxamento pois não basta simplesmente deitar no tapetinho de yoga para de fato relaxar corpo e mente. O Nidra aponta um caminho suave e tão simples que nem parece que vai funcionar. Mas funciona maravilhosamente bem. Valeu a espera para tê-lo em mãos!
