Total Yoga Nidra for Children

Heart-centred, vivid and nourishing meditations and relaxation practices for the young. With Uma Dinsmore-Tuli Phd and Lucy Arnsby-Wilson DPsych. This unique collection of live recordings offers an authentic range of diverse Nidrās for different times of the day and different ages of children.

They are all recorded in the presence of children who are actually doing the Yoga Nidrā practices. See which ones suit you best, and integrate them into daily life: that is how they were shared, with our own families, students and clients.

We hope they inspire you and the children in your life to find place and time to welcome the power of Yoga Nidrā.

Tracks with LAW at the start are recorded by Lucy Arnsby Wilson, and tracks with UDT are recorded by Uma Dinsmore-Tuli

1. Rise and Shine – UDT : A Nidrā for all ages, created initially for mornings, but that can be used anytime you’d like a little support for a fresh start, for example after a nap. Suitable for children from 4 upwards. Recorded live at Pure Camping during the Women and Girls Bealtaine yoga Retreat 2018
2. Morning Wake Up – UDT : Another morning practicem which again can be used to re-connect with activities after a pause. Recorded live at Pure Camping during the Women and Girls Bealtaine yoga Retreat 2018
3. Robin hopping yoga Nidrā: settling down with Lucy – LAW – recorded live in a noisy room in London – which makes it really useful for settling in noisy places.
4. For Freedom – LAW. A practice to savour simply being free to be alive and safe. Suitable for all children aged 8 and up. This practice has been developed by Lucy Arnsby-Wilson for supporting refugee children who have come to seek asylum in the UK.
5. For being safe: an invitational yoga Nidrā for all ages of children – LAW – recorded live at a Yoga Nidrā for Children workshop in London. It’s in a noisy room in London – which makes it really useful for feeling safe settling in noisy places.
6. After Lunch Yoga Nidrā for children of all ages – UDT. Recorded live at a Yoga Nidrā for Children workshop in London.
7. Afternoon down time. For children of all ages, including toddlers – UDT. Recorded live at Pure Camping during the Women and Girls Bealtaine yoga Retreat 2018.
8. Review the day: an ideal evening practice, for children from 5 to 12 (and older) travelling back through the day to remember what has happened – UDT. Recorded live at Pure Camping during the Women and Girls Bealtaine yoga Retreat 2018.
9. Goodnight! A bedtime practice, for children from 5 to 12 (and older) – UDT. Recorded live at Pure Camping during the Women and Girls Bealtaine yoga Retreat 2018.
10. Queen of the Moon – UDT. This is a tried and tested ‘lullaby’ Nidrā, with the intention: ‘settle down now and go to sleep’. Uma told this Nidrā often to her grown up sons when they were little boys who were resistant to the idea of going to sleep. They usually dropped off after the Queen of the Moon bakes her eighth muffin. It is recorded here with Uma’s daughter, Prayaag Eileen, pretending to fall asleep.
