Through daily practice, insightful teachings, and meaningful self-inquiry, you'll develop the knowledge, confidence, and experience to embody Yoga Nidra in your own life, and, if you choose, share it with others.
Guided by internationally recognized teacher, author, researcher, and lineage holder Kamini Desai, PhD, you'll learn the philosophical foundations, scientific principles, and practical applications of Yoga Nidra through the distinctive I AM Yoga Nidra five-tool methodology. Each teaching is paired with carefully designed Yoga Nidra experiences that support lasting transformation at the mental, emotional, energetic, and deeply personal levels.
