This twelve and a half minute yoga nidra practice by Uma Dinsmore-Tuli is in metrical verse, with a strong hypnotic rhythm. It is one of the yoga nidra practices included in the Treasury of Transcripts in the Nidra Shakti Encyclopaedia of Yoga Nidra. A very effective short practice to revive and restore rhythmicity and vitality. Recorded in County Clare, Ireland, during lockdown 2021.

There's a sense of being a little stuck and unsure what is next. Recorded on the eve of the next stage of lockdown easing, mid May but summer that should have started May 1st still not really here: temperatures are down on yearly averages, soggy blossom is stuck on the trees unpollinated, farmers say crops are late. And in the Christian calendar in the journey from Easter, Christ has ascended and we await the glorious descent of the Holy Spirit at Pentecost, a week away. And, from the sublime to the ridiculous, the Friends cast has reassembled: stuck in 2nd gear?!

This Nidra was recorded during a Yoga Nidra for Creativity Immersion Weekend in California, USA 11/2/2019 with Uma Dinsmore-Tuli .  It shares a style of Indigenous Yoga Nidra that holds space for sacred storytelling in the form of a lineage teaching often shared as a prayer/invocation for the Thanksgiving time/ fall harvest.

On March 12, 2020, after having spent the last 5 years completely dedicated to practicing and developing the skills and wisdom required to induce an experience of radical healthfulness, healing, freedom, and wonder person to person, I walked into The HPRC Connection knowing that it was going to be my last opportunity for some time to make and share some the most meaningful art I have ever created.

I was more than ready. As is often the case, I was inspired to the point of tears on my drive to Eureka. There is nothing I believe in more strongly than the value of Yoga Nidra.
