Yoga Nidra I: Self-Paced Immersion Training with Kamini Desai, PhD

I AM Yoga Nidra I: Immersion
Self-Paced Training with Kamini Desai, PhD
 
More Than a Practice
Most people discover Yoga Nidra because they're seeking better sleep, less stress, deep relaxation, healing, or relief from the demands of daily life. Along the way, many discover that Yoga Nidra offers all of this and more: a profound map for understanding themselves and transforming the way they live.
 
At I AM Education, we believe true education transforms not only what you know, but who you become. Rather than simply learning how to practice Yoga Nidra, you'll discover the timeless yogic principles that make it such a powerful path of healing and transformation. You'll understand not only how Yoga Nidra works, but why it works - and how it can transform your life from the inside out.
 
Whether your intention is deep rest, healing, personal transformation, professional development, or beginning your journey toward Yoga Nidra Certification, this immersive program integrates ancient yogic wisdom, modern neuroscience, experiential practice, and embodied learning into one transformative educational journey.
You won't simply experience Yoga Nidra.
You'll begin to experience yourself differently.
 
Begin Your Journey into the Heart of Yoga Nidra
Study with internationally recognized teacher, author, researcher, and lineage holder Kamini Desai, PhD.
 
Yoga Nidra I: Immersion is the foundation of the I AM Yoga Nidra Certification Program, while also serving as a powerful stand-alone course for anyone seeking deeper rest, greater resilience, healing, and lasting transformation.
 
Grounded in the timeless wisdom of classical Yoga Nidra and supported by modern science, you'll explore the philosophical foundations of Yoga Nidra, including the Kleshas, Koshas, Turiya, Sankalpa (intention), and the relationship between brainwave states and consciousness.
 
Each module you'll explore one of the Five Transformational Principles of Yoga Nidra through stories, demonstrations, reflective inquiry, and experiential exercises that make these timeless teachings personally meaningful and immediately applicable.
 
Rather than creating temporary change at the level of thoughts and behaviors, you'll discover how Yoga Nidra creates profound structural shifts at the roots of consciousness, where lasting change begins.
 
Each module’s learning culminates in a specially designed Yoga Nidra experience that embodies the teachings, deepens understanding, and supports lasting perceptual shifts.
Through experiential practice, reflection, and self-inquiry, Yoga Nidra becomes more than something you practice. It becomes a way of understanding yourself, your experience, and your relationship to life itself.
 
As your understanding deepens, you'll naturally cultivate greater resilience, deeper rest, mental clarity, emotional balance, and a renewed sense of purpose.
