I'm a 42 year old non-traditional osteopathic medical student, as well as the mother to 5 children ages 4-15. I have not slept well or throughout the night without sleep aides for years, but I cam across Andrew Huberman's KZbin channel and learned about NSDR and how that can help me reset after a 90 minute study session. So yes, I did come across your channel because of NSDR, but I keep coming back to your channel for my nervous system resets 2x a day or more. Doing a yoga nidra is what I keep choosing to do for 15-20 minute break, or like today, a 40 minute break since I just couldn't stay away studying for much longer after a not-so-good night's sleep. Thank you so much for making these available on KZbin for free

[@donnadalton2685]

Yoga Nedra is the perfect gift. My whole being in life is grateful for the blessings U bestow.❤❤ Thank U

Your problem is likely a mental illness. You should get appropriate treatment. Your profession is a fake thing and these things you listen to are not connected to reality.

38 yr old non-traditional double majoring engineering student, in recovery, and recovering from a debilitatingly severe TBI after getting hit by a car on my bike, with no resittuion. School is 10-fold harder, even after $10,000 out of pocket for Neurofeedback. I've been a breath away from quitting everything, every semester since The struggle is real! Luckily. So is Yoga Nidra. Ally is the one and only, end all, be all.....heal all, to my practice. (And I was just just trying to take a sleep-deprived nap on the plane 3 yes ago😂) hooked line and sinker 🙏🫶💆‍♀️ Keep going my friend!!

[@herhighnessdomy]

I am an ex addict and l now turn to yoga nidra with the same drive l used to have for druxs. I finally know l have an unlimited potential and l feel moved by the sensations and emotions arising during the practice.❤❤❤❤

[@nas3426]

I listen to you every night when I wake up in the middle of the night and find it hard to go back to sleep. Your recording has been a Godsend to me! Thank you 🙏🏼 ❤

[@mialisahaha]

I have noticed the prompt “even 1%more comfortable“ helps me so much for some reason.

[@Sunnydayz5656]

Right ?

[@profet1385]

The poetic quote was such an unexpected yet very welcomed beautiful addition

[@pbadwarrior]

I tune in from South Dakota. I am an older woman. Yoga Nidra was recommended by my sleep coach to give me “pockets of pause” during the day. I try to make room for a video whenever I need energy and focus but I’m too run down. I usually am not awake the whole time but I come back to myself at the end and it’s so effective, like drinking from a well. Thank you.

[@stefaniemelo5542]

I am a newborn care specialist (so I’m up at night with baby) and your videos have helped me get maximum rest in my short naps

[@tracieschneider6778]

This may be your best one yet! Thank you so much for all you are doing, Ally. Finding you has been invaluable to my recovery journey from long covid and has your yoga nidras have changed me in more ways than I can say! Thank you so much! ❤

[@sharmaraygoldman9415]

Thank you for sharing this Medicine. I have been exploring this Path without knowing what it was called. I look forward to exploring THIS path more.

[@PCollins-wx4hn]

This was the ultimate Nidra practice for me so far. I shuddered when breathing from the centre of the brain to the crown and felt very emotional. I also sometimes see many faces fading in and out of my mind. I heard once about seeing your ancestors - is this it? Endless thanks, Ally. It’s good to be learning and beginning to understand how your own practice can benefit all the people you love

[@lukem4980]

Completly changed my energy.. had a rough morning now I’m looking forward to rest of the day.

[@misterv5421]

I started listening to Ally’s yoga nidra two days ago, and the positive impact is immediate. From someone dealing with anxiety, this is a great blessing.

[@annemiddleton4378]

I think this might be my favourite of all of your Yoga Nidras I have done. I am finding them really helpful after a flare up of my M.E. Thank you.

[@dianemullet410]

I discovered you and Yoga Nidra here on KZbin about 2 months ago. It has impacted my sleep. It has improved greatly. Thank you 🙏🏽

Hi Ally, recovery from CFS is going well, using your yoga nidra every day. This week i have an unexpected guest: Covid! All the more reason to rest. Thank you for being with me in this. X

[@becoming_a_betty]

May your recovery from COVID be a swift one 💓 I'm on the CFS recovery journey too and I think Allys Nidras gave me a smooth passage through COVID earlier this year. 😊 big restful hugs xx

I am also on a CFS recovery journey. Are you seeing improvements using yoga nidra only? :) Or are you using other techniques too ? @michellemalakouna4643

[@janebrannan717]

#Namaste Ally. Janey here. I listened to this last night but fell asleep before I could post something! This was amazing, I love your imagery, I love the sankulpa you suggest, I love the so hum breath, I love the poem you read. The whole experience was very rich, almost too rich, my mind was very busy following along! Will definitely return to this one again and again. Many blessings ❤

[@nadinerheaume8046]

This was a very deep experience for me and I really love all your different yoga nidra videos! This one made me cry at the end! Don’t know what it means!? But I felt so good, maybe I was releasing some emotions, is that possible!? ❤️🙌😌🙏

[@maryburman2592]

Wonderful.Thank you so much. Namaste

[@lisakeplinger2893]

Thank you. Some days are more difficult than others to let go of the tension. It's always nice to connect to your nidra and to myself. Life changing. Namaste 🙏

[@petrajordanmusic]

The BEST yoga Nidra I have found so far! I slept through the whole night without waking up, which is very unusual for me (although the joint I smoked not too long before bed might have helped, too:) But I’m definitely coming back to this one ❤️

[@user-eu2pt5fy8d]

I have been doing Yoga nidra with you for about 2 month. It really helps my nervous-system to turn on the parasympatic mode. But this recording did more. It made me feel that I was floating inside myself, a really wonderful experience ❤🙏 thank you, Ally, for sharing these recordings. Lots of love from Norway.

[@janellison5011]

I frequently awaken too early, resulting in less than 6 hours of sleep. I've found that when I practice a session for deep rest, I feel as well as if I'd had quality sleep. Thank you, Ally! I'm so fortunate to have found your channel.

[@rosphillips7867]

What a wonderful start to my day , I feel calm , and a complete relaxation of my mind and body. Peace to all

[@cravingforchocolates]

Hi Ally, got a calling today to work on this particular recording again for my morning practice (I did this upon waking but forgot to leave a comment here until just now). I was able to get into a vibrational state in the practice. Tried to work with the vibration consciously to see if I could get an OBE but didn’t succeed. I know inducing an OBE is not a primary goal why I’m here taking the course and practicing here but this is the very first time that I’ve reached this vibrational state in a yoga nidra practice so I’m feeling so excited and encouraged!

[@ShelbyGYoga]

Thank you! This rest was needed after a very social weekend for my sister in law’s bachelorette

[@yourmomentyoga]

Ally, I can't thank you enough for showing up in my life. I am not sure how I was able to live my life without yoga nidra before I found you.😅💖

Thank you so much Ally. Love this. So precious. I am 70 this yr and I love Yoga Nidra for various reasons. It helps me so much when I wake up too early and need more rest. Also, I do your NSDR in the afternoons to reset my mind, body and spirit for Family Time in the evenings. 🙏🏽🙏🏽❤❤

[@amorris205]

My friend and neighbor introduced me to yoga Nidra about 4 months ago. I love your guided yoga nidra videos. Great nervous system reboot. Thank you.

[@CristinaMonti-wq7ql]

Wow! After some time without practicing, this YN felt sooo good! I loved the path for the rotation of consciousness and I loved the feeling of movement inside of me with the so hum. It allowed me to stay present in my inner visualisations of energy and light movement, up and down. (Another) one of my favourite practices!!! So inspirational. Thank you Ally! You’re the best! Namaste

I have a VERY hard time falling asleep, very!!! I've utilized your yoga Nidra video for 2 nights, consecutively, and both nights I fall right to sleep. I love your magic. Thank you for your practice. Namaste 🙏🏻🤍

[@restfulstillness2274]

Namaste! I practiced before 3 P.M. on Sept. 19, 2023. I was feeling a tad upset subconsciously, so I did have a bunch of distracting visuals even during the body scan. Toward the end of the polar ascending breath, my mind had started to settle, but then it was tome for the Sankalpa. I had my own, and I also borrowed the portion with compassion as I had wanted this practice to help me go deeper. Repeating the Sankalpas did help settle me, though, so I can give myself some grace.

[@msdrussell4051]

Namaste Aly another wonderful reset. I appreciate everything you do and for all your lovely yoga nidra practices. I couldn't do without them. They help me through my day,my months and my years. Thank you again Denise x

You're so welcome! Thank you for joining me 😊

[@christine8256]

Thank you Ally❤ this felt really deeply relaxing. Can you please save more time for doing the sankalpa the first time? Sometimes I feel that I have to rush repeating it three times. It is so nice to be able to do the sankalpa really slow , like at the end of the practice. Thank you so much for sharing your wisdom 🙏😌 Christine from Holland 💐

[@RealityHacker690]

Ally is amazing teacher with the best voice for relaxation that I've ever heard/used. I wonder if anyone in this community could help me. I listened to one of her recordings that mentions all of the elements of our biochemistry that nsdr influences - the different chemicals that are released in a practice but I'm unable to find out remember which one it is. I think it is lost forever 😢

[@rosaburgeria1716]

Hi dear Ally, I really like your yin yoga meditations. But sometimes I would less talking and more sounds of the sea.. Sometimes when I cannot sleep I am listening to your voice and that makes me feel calm. And if you can, can you make a meditation with less talking and very slow bodyscan and waves of the sea. I would really appreciate that and more people would like that... Thank you so much for your yin yoga meditations... Have a beautiful and thankful day .. ❤❤❤
