Befriending the mess of life with Yoga Nidra - Webinar with James Reeves

There is a deep human frailty beyond the masks we all wear. It’s so easy to look around and believe that others have their life in order or are confidently moving toward their dreams. However, have an honest conversation with a trusted friend and you’ll realise that for most of us, our lives - along with our inner worlds - are messy, complex, and confusing.
So how do we befriend the mess of life and the mess of ourselves?
The ancients from Kashmir discovered a way that was at once meditative and also life-embracing. They recognised that awareness is outside of the mess of life, but unlike other philosophical systems, not a palace to escape to, not a nirvana to hide in. It could be used as a way to increase our capacity to be in the mess of life, and to hold our whole selves - the good, the bad, and the ugly - with a deep, abiding calm.
If you like the sound of embracing yourself fully, and if you hear the calling to stop the war within yourself and fall in love with who and where you are, this webinar is for you.
Join Yoga Nidra teacher and author of The Book of Rest, James Reeves, in this webinar to discover:
• How these practices, developed over 1,000 years ago, are so relevant today.
• What embracing yourself means - beyond a theory or some ‘nice words’.
• Why stopping the war within and welcoming yourself is psychologically supported as a path to positive mental health.
• Why lying down and surrendering with Yoga Nidra (yogic sleep) is the perfect forum to embrace these techniques.
• That self-compassion is the key to living a calm, congruent, and peaceful life, not as an escape or checking out, but as something deeply life-affirming.
• A deep authenticity and inner accord that will lead to calm, peace, ease, and an effortless freedom.
