Yoga Nidra Meditation for Deep Rest | 45-Minute Guided Relaxation for Seniors, Veterans & Beginners

Settle in for a deeply restorative 45-minute Yoga Nidra meditation designed to help you relax, release tension, and gently reset your nervous system.

Whether you’re a senior, a Veteran, or an absolute beginner, this practice invites you to rest comfortably — in a chair, recliner, bed, or on a mat — and experience the powerful benefits of conscious relaxation.

Yoga Nidra is known to support:
Better sleep
Reduced stress and anxiety
More balanced energy
Enhanced focus and clarity
Gentle nervous system regulation

Allow my voice to guide you through body awareness, breath, visualization, and deep rest — all at your own pace.

Helping people — seniors, Veterans, and absolute beginners — find balance, mobility, and calm through gentle movement and mindful rest.

🧘‍♀️ Optional Setup: Pillow behind knees, blanket over legs, eye pillow, or reclined chair support. What I like about Yoga Nidra, is that it helps me to reduce my chronic pain.

🕊️ You can’t “do it wrong.” Just listen and allow yourself to rest.
