Yoga Nidra Meditation

“Pierre Bonnasse’s Yoga Nidra Meditation is no glib self-help book about using modern yoga nidra–the practice of visualizing images, having awareness of breath, and remaining immobile while in a lucid, sleep-like state–for getting rid of stress and anxiety. It is, instead, an in-depth, wise, and elegantly written presentation of the philosophy and practice of modern yoga nidra as nothing less than a means of attaining a ‘taste of Being’ of Brahman. In this, the book itself is a kind of meditation–the kind that one may read at bedtime in order to facilitate slipping into sleep.” * Elliott Goldberg, author of The Path of Modern Yoga *
“Yoga Nidra Meditation: The Sleep of the Sages is as much about waking up as it is about sleeping. Bonnasse shows us how to wake up from the sleepy dreams that dull our consciousness and keep our natural enlightened state concealed. He tells us that to go beyond the body into our awakened state, first we have to go into the body, awakening its sensations and breath. The awakened state of the body then becomes the river that takes us beyond our limited sense of self. This is an important message, beautifully expressed, and the author offers powerful, yet simple, instructions on entering the state of yoga nidra for ourselves.” * Will Johnson, author of Breathing through the Whole Body and Eyes Wide Open *
