A 3 month programme to reduce overwhelm and increase your energy I believe that Yoga Nidra is one of the best meditations for neurodivergent parents. When you're navigating your own unique experiences such as sensory sensitivities, the demands of parenting, and adapting to everyday situations you can end up feeling drained and overwhelmed. Yoga Nidra is a deeply restorative meditation that help you release mental, emotional, and physical stress and tension that you are carrying. It is said that 30 minutes of Yoga Nidra meditation is equivalent to 2-4 hours of sleep! Yoga Nidra or ‘yogic sleep’ is a form of guided meditation practiced lying down. It is a deeply restorative practice that can help you relax, recharge your energy, and improve your sleep. The practice guides you through specific techniques to help you feel rested and refreshed. Meditation can help with parenting too! Yoga Nidra meditation helps you feel more relaxed and provides a quiet space for you to simply be. That means you can feel more patient, as you won't be carrying as much stress, while going through the ups and downs of parenthood. And create a calmer mental space which will allow you to look after your own needs and continue supporting your whole family. With refreshed energy! That's why I created this Deep Rest programme to help you balance your energy! What's Included? Month 1 First live call with Yoga Nidra and reflection. I'll explain the workbook and talk through the reflective activities for Month 1. We'll create a practical plan together of how you can integrate Yoga Nidra into your life. You'll receive a Yoga Nidra audio meditation to listen to between sessions. I'll check-in with you on Friday’s (via Telegram messaging - free app) to see how you've been getting on that week and how you've found the practices. Month 2 Second live call with Yoga Nidra meditation and reflection. We'll review Month 1 and discuss if there's anything that you would like adjusted for your practice. You'll have space to ask any questions that you may have. I'll share more about the activities for you to practice in your workbook for this month. Continue Friday check-ins so you're able to stay encouraged and motivated to practice self-care. Month 3 Final live call with Yoga Nidra meditation with a review of Month 2 and acknowledging your progress. Reflection activities inside your workbook You'll be supported to create a long-term self-care plan so you're able to manage stress while parenting and in everyday life. We'll discuss how you can continue using Yoga Nidra beyond the programme, because you deserve to continue having rest. Final Friday check-ins - you'll receive continued messaging support each week and we'll celebrate your overall journey on the last Friday of the month. If you're looking to feel more moments of calm while neurodivergent parenting or caregiving … That's exactly what I'm hear for! This is for you if... You’re a neurodivergent parent or caregiver who feels exhausted by stress and the demands of parenting/caregiving. You’re looking for a for a private meditation experience. You’re ready to explore the transformative practice of Yoga Nidra. This is not for you if: You prefer a group setting. You’re looking for a single session, rather than a sustained, supportive journey of self-care. You’re not able to dedicate time to a deep, personal Yoga Nidra experience paired with ongoing support for lasting impact. Are you ready to increase your energy and create a calmer mind? I'm ready when you are. *Available for wherever you are in the world, except the USA and Canada, due to my insurance.
