Sylvia helps students get comfortable for a yoga nidra class at Y-Stretch Studio

Yoga Nidra is sometimes called “yogic sleep”. A Yoga Nidra practice helps you enter a deep state of conscious rest, promoting healing, stress reduction, and mental clarity. In an hour’s time Sylvia will lead you on a guided meditation that allows your body and mind to slow down and shift into a quiet open space.

Please join Sylvia on Wednesday evenings 5:30-6:30 for a yoga nidra guided meditation to the land of bliss. This practice helps to calm and quiet the mind. It’s very restorative and grounding. The theme of the meditation changes each week. The inspiration for April 2nd is a rainbow and the chakras! 

What to Expect:

  • Guided Meditation: Led by a calming voice, you’ll be guided through a journey of relaxation, systematically releasing tension in the body and mind.
  • Deep Rest: Experience the benefits of deep rest as you lie comfortably in savasana, allowing your body to relax while remaining conscious.
  • Mental Clarity: This practice helps quiet the mind, reduce anxiety, and promote mental clarity, leaving you refreshed and rejuvenated.
  • All Levels Welcome: No experience required. This practice is suitable for anyone seeking relaxation and peace, whether new to meditation or an experienced practitioner.

Leave feeling rested, restored, and reconnected with your inner peace.

Sylvia has been practicing yoga since 2009.  A friend introduced her to her first yoga class which she found quite difficult. She recalls “the teacher said downward dog is your ‘resting pose’ and I thought that was crazy”. But by time the session reached savasana the whole experience had come together and she was hooked. She earned her 200 hour teacher certification through the Yoga Synthesis Teacher Training Program with Raji Thron.   As a health care worker during the pandemic Sylvia recognized the value and roles various yoga practices could provide by creating space for resilience to life’s challenges.  This has led her on the path to become an Energy Medicine Yoga® teacher and Divine Sleep® Yoga Nidra guide, utilizing these powerful tools for healing and deep relaxation.  She is a strong believer in the power of Yoga Nidra to reduce stress and anxiety, and to promote calmness that offers many benefits including better sleep.  When she’s not on her mat, Sylvia loves to travel and spend time with her family, opening her heart and mind to new experiences.
