One of the most enjoyable parts of a yoga class comes when we rest in savasana―the "corpse" pose―and realize deep serenity, a sense of effortless joy, and a glimpse into our true nature as unqualified presence. How is this so? Master teacher Richard Miller explains that this experience is a manifestation of yoga nidra, the meditative state of mind-body union at the heart of all yoga practice.

A powerful integration of learning, Yoga Nidra is an ancient tantric yoga path that leads to inner freedom. Through accessible language appropriate for any level of practice, Miller takes us step-by-step through the traditional techniques of relaxation and meditation to help us move toward the realization of "unqualified presence"―the ultimate aim of yoga―a goal unreachable through posture practice alone. Through his expert guidance, students will experience:

Deep relaxation for relief from day-to-day stress
• The development of "one-pointedness"―a key to spiritual awakening
• Healing from painful emotions, such as fear, grief, and anger
• More effective and energizing sleep, and much more

Suitable for both beginners and advanced practitioners―but new to most Westerners―Yoga Nidra provides an unmatched way to experience the culmination of the art of yoga, and the deeper physical, emotional, and spiritual rewards that are its promise.

Includes digital access to audio tracks.

Should come with packets of wildflowers.
Too flowery even for this 10 year yoga practitioner. I'm sure the Doc is qualified, but the language dances around its own drum circle so much that it doesn't say anything.

5.0 out of 5 stars Yoga Nidra. Theory and practice
Reviewed in the United States on November 4, 2012
Verified Purchase
This book by Richard Miller is excellent. The CD supplied with the book is also excellent.

Yoga Nidra is an easy practice to learn and is bloody effective. I suffered from serious anxiety for many, many years not knowing that I had a problem. I thought that everyone lived like this. I finally sought help from a psychiatrist who identified my problem as PTSD and prescribed Xanax which seemed to work, but I hated depending on chemicals.

Years later, I saw a psychologist who suggested Yoga Nidra and recommended Richard Miller's book. One day I realised that I hadn't used Xanax for over two years. And I still don't!

I word of warning. Don't think that Yoga Nidra will work without you putting in the effort to practice and don't expect instant results. It takes determination and thirty five minutes a day. That isn't a lot of time to devote to a practice that WILL help!

5.0 out of 5 stars Honest to goodness, it works!
Reviewed in the United States on November 8, 2013
Verified Purchase
After having used other Yoga Nindra CD's for anxiety, I found this CD, and book, to be amazing in its depth as well as its revolutionizing affect upon a proven, ancient technique. I have found Yoga Nidra the only thing that helps me with my deep, inner work. I had practiced classical Yoga Nidra for approx. 1 year, before discovering Richard's iRest protocol, and found it deeply transforming, as well as extremely powerful.
He approaches the practice from an enlightened, Western approach, that just resonates with me. After the first week of using this technique, I awoke one morning, and I felt a pressing issue that needed to be dealt with immediately. I sat for meditation, and in about 20 minutes, I had released some old, stored up negative issues, felling much more at peace, and a sense of wellbeing. In over a year of doing my inner work, this is the first really profound advance I have made towards my goal of ending the suffering.
If you are on the path, and need to do your inner work to get there, I strongly suggest that you give this an honest try. I think you may be amazed.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Wonderful Introduction to Stress Reduction
Reviewed in the United States on December 5, 2012
Verified Purchase
I attended a live seminar with Dr. Miller, and it changed my life. I can go to sleep much more easily, without tablets, and have begun the first tentative steps in meditation, now that I have lived some of the benefits. The CD is very helpful in following the scheme of increasing depth of inquiry into the self. I have learned to live much more happily with the stream of thoughts in my head, and to begin to explore other means of delving into life's purpose. If one can attend a 3-hour seminar, as I did, and come away changed, then so much more is possible. This is a very valuable book for any seeker.

Reviewed in the United States on October 18, 2014
Verified Purchase
As a clinician, I frequently use mindfulness mind/body awareness trainings with the people I work with. I began incorporating Yoga Nidra as presented by this book into my clinical work, and I can report that it is frequently transformative for people. Everyone to whom I have suggested giving it a try has benefited from the increase in self awareness. This small book is dense in content, and it deserves a slow and thorough reading -- and re-reading -- to fully grasp the concepts. But the real insights will only come through doing it, preferably every day for about six weeks. This is a wonderful book and provides a process that is simple yet effective. Don't analyze it, just experience it.

Good book I don't understand why this review has to be so many words in length? Why not take me at my word and accept that I finished the book and that in saying that, it was good enough to complete. I gave it five stars for God's sake, does this not confirm, and or reflect what I thought the book merited ? I have enough on my plate and here you are rejecting a three word review: it is good.

I switch back and forth between using this CD and Swami Jnaneshvara Bharati's Yoga Nidra CD. Between the pair of them, I have gotten tremendous results. Because I use meditation to supplement treatments for illness, I can see how much it has effectively touched my entire life. My body heals faster and my treatment sessions have become much more effective and I am progressing so much faster. The more I practice meditating, the more effective it becomes and yoga nidra has become such a powerful tool on the road to recovery.

l libro è bellissimo e forse è il più serio sullo yoga nidra, perché scritto da un vero ricercatore di psicologia e neuroscienze.
Non lasciatevi ingannare dalla dimensione, è denso e profondo, con tutta una serie di spiegazioni sull'utilizzo e l'utilità della pratica dello yoga nidra.

Il libro ed il cd sono in inglese.

Other than putting me to sleep, when I managed to stay awake I have noticed an improvement in my general being. I felt more centred, calm and responsive to the world around me the next day.

The CD helpfully breaks down practice into separate chunks and also puts the whole practice together in the end. The voice is soft and easy to listen to, allowing you to focus on the experience rather than the noise.
