Yoga Nidra for Stress Relief and Deep Relaxation with Chime Sound Bath

[@tristanmelling410]

I discovered this last year as a way to get through cancer diagnosis, treatment, and scans and the associated anxiety attacks and fear. Yoga nidra has a profound effect on your mindset and outlook, particularly when ultra stressed. I’m in full recovery now, but come back to nidra as a way of reconnecting. You and Tanis Fishman here on KZbin have helped me know myself. I recommend your meditations to anyone going through tough times. This is a magical tool for healing and wellbeing. Namaste

[@cbarnette56]

I myself breast cancer and this also helps me with my anxiety regarding scans and bloodwork. God bless you in your recovery ❤❤❤❤

[@belladreizler7683]

Thank you. I am healing from Covid and this daily practice has been tremendous support.

[@XxEPICxNESSxX]

I am 22 years old from the Bahamas, and I can’t thank you enough. Andrew Huberman put me onto NSDR but i found your channel and this is the longest session i’ve done. the 40 mins flew by and it was an incredible feeling. I suffer from cluster headaches and I believe through practicing yoga nidra i can require my nervous system and control the outbreaks.

[@maneki9neko]

Yes. I found yoga nidra through Huberman as well. Good stuff.

[@jessicasummerslcsw-uf5el]

Your yoga nidra sessions have helped me with my recovery from long COVID. Thank you so much!

[@aubreestarr6617]

Also psilocybin mushrooms can help cluster headaches, I'm grateful I found ally- what a amazing soothing voice!

[@sardarpirhadi577]

This works better than adderall Thank you so much 😊

[@ViolaBaither-cv4qz]

I am in my forties and i come from Germany. A friend recommended me your videos to help me through recovery from longcovid. It helps me so much, I feel like I can relax my brain and body simultaneously. I feel so refreshed after the exercise. I also use your Insomnia videos for the night to get better sleep (unfortunately my sleep is terrible bad at the moment ). Thank you so much for your work! I love your voice and words. You are a treasure.

[@beajauregui]

This is amazing. I have listened to this numerous times before and found it very helpful. This time I listened to it while feeling the intensity of a serious chest and head cold with lots of congestion, and stress about it because I have to fly on a plane and I’m afraid of the pain of the pressure change. My sankalpa was I am resting deeply and healing myself, and over the course of this practice, I could literally feel the infection in my sinuses subsiding I could feel my body healing itself, and even though it is the middle of the night, and I really want to sleep. I am feeling surprisingly energized and closer to full health. This has really show me my body’s own healing potential, in a shockingly short amount of time. I am truly amazed, I have never experienced anything like this before. I have been practising yoga Nidra for a couple of years now, and I really believe in it, and I will continue to do so. Thank you so much for this one, it is wondrous

[@msdrussell4051]

Namaste Ally,I have been practising daily with you for about 3 yrs now. I am in England for 9 mths of the year and Australia for 3 mths. Each practice is different even though I may have been there many times. I love them all. Today ,a sense of well being and calm comes with me from your words, the chimes, my San Kulpa and our shared space and time. 🙏❤️🙏

[@SarovaraYoga]

Thank you for meditating with me. I'd love to know how you feel after this yoga nidra in the comments below?! Be well and cultivate peace.

[@sanb9459]

Wonderful 🙌🏼

[@morgancronin-webb5407]

so soothing and calming and rejuvenated

[@markumark1]

💛 I normally only listen to voice only or subdued nature sounds, but these tones are pleasant. Still, I think they could be a little quieter, or your voice a little louder. 💛

[@inheatherwords]

Restored. I think this was my favorite session with you so far. I’ve noticed, in general, the background sounds make a difference for me.

[@MindYourMindful]

This was so nourishing after a sleepless night. Feeling a sense of rejuvenation I didn't think could be achieved today,

[@lucianapirk]

What I experience with this practice is one of the best sensations I’ve ever had in my whole entire life. Thank you 💖💖

[@daisyseaman706]

Same! It is bliss 😊

[@juliahenry1845]

Thank you. This is absolutely lovely! I am a covid long hauler. 10 months since getting sick, and recovering. This is immensely helpful. I will share and be following your channel and doing more! 🙏

[@tomsmith5936]

Same here, only way to get through a day right now! Keep working on that recovery. X

Thank you, Ally! Trying this one in the afternoon ✨

[@hollyhebard4747]

Module 3 student here! I started the training about3 months ago and still fall asleep or go in and out of sleep quite often. I have been deeply sleep deprived for years. I loved the chimes!

[@BenBalance24]

These chimes together with your voice are hypnotic. Thank you Ally🙏

[@DebiBoushey]

I’m so happy to have found your recordings! I’ve been meditating since 1978 and your style guides me deep into my body. I feel energized, focused and clear now! I’ve also been using your deep sleep recordings…. I’m in the beginning phase of a divorce and my stomach has been tied in knots so these recordings have been a gift from the Universe, thank you!

[@clarestephen5488]

Monday 22/08/22 1854. I'm feeling very peaceful ,balanced and at ease following this practice. What luxury to be able to do two longer Yoga Nidra practices today! I feel this could become a habit....." Habits are human nature -why not create some that will mint gold " ( Hafiz). I loved the psychic nadi shodhana practice which came very naturally after the rotation of consciousness ,sensing into the right and the left hemisphere's of the body. I actually felt my toes disappear and merge into the pranic field of awareness emanating around my body...my body felt suspended in awareness! Awesome ! Thanks again Ally. Namaste! 🙏

[@JazzComedian79]

Thank you Ally for your yoga nidra videos. They help me a lot with medical related fatigue and when I haven’t slept well and when my nervous system is out of whack. I also love how soothing your voice is ❤️🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@clouddreamer4780]

All I can say is that I am utterly grateful for this recording as it keeps me going in a taxing time of fatigue and insomnia... Bless you. 🙏Namaste

[@taralee6005]

Wow (.) - still coming too. Words. One of favourite practices. I am at the threshold of my stress, and despite it taking a long time to settle...I got there. I am very receptive to sound and vibration (and it was intense at some spots), I felt that even after awakening my eyes seem to continue to vibrate. LOVED the visualization, the breath work. Oh ya...it was a sweet spot to be "IN". Namaste :)

[@karunayogastudio]

Thank you Ally! It was amazing to start my day (my super early morning at 3:30) with this practice. I’m going through some challenging times with work but my continuous yoga nidra practices helps me to come back towards centre. I cannot wait to continue the training with you all, which had to be put on pause for now. Sending you all my gratitude and love 🤍 Veronika

[@valeriemaguire401]

This is one of the most beautiful yoga nidras ever!! You are so gifted at this! Your voice is hypnotic and so relaxing. Huge gratitude for that incredibly peaceful experience.🙏💕

[@paulavanginkel]

Hi Ally, YNTT Module 3 Coming out of this Nidra, with a sense of regret that it is over already. This was such a blisful, peaceful, serene experience. Thank you I'm getting out of my nidra nest with a sense of calm and quiet happiness 🙏❤️🙏

[@jolandabargeman9763]

Thank you so much, Jakob, you made me cry. The image of standing tall and feeling free touched my soul. Thank you for helping my self-confidence to grow 🙏

2.35pm I finished this practice about half an hour ago but only just surfacing from my nest …. That’s how relaxing it is? Lots of energetic moving and shifting too. Your voice and the sound chimes are a marriage made in heaven. A perfect, harmonious blend. Continued loved and gratitude 🙏🏻 💖🌻

Hello. I have just started my day with this meditation after a disturbed night. I now feel fully restored and ready to face the outside world. I look forward to sampling your other guided meditations. Thank you so much.

[@cjanderson9]

Ally, I am a 77-year-old woman who had an accident earlier this year. I dislocated my shoulder and as a result of that, I had nerve damage all the way down to my fingers. After the shoulder dislocation, I fell and fractured my kneecap and had to have, a replacement kneecap. I have been using your video to call my nerves and go to sleep. It is wonderful! Both of my injuries were on the right side of my body and I so appreciate the way you work through the right side of your body and then through the left side of your bodyto calm the nerves. Helping me immensely in my recovery. Thank you so much.

[@embodiedpsychology325]

I love this practice. Each time the chimes sound I feel my body drop further and also could sense the prana flowing around. I did this early morning. How special. Thank you Ally

[@sleepanddeeprest]

I am in the middle of module 3 and loving the different Nidra's in this module. Today on a hot summers day I feel totally refreshed after this session, I loved the use of the breath from feet to crown on both sides of the body, I could feel the energy moving around me. Thank you 😊

1300 practice. Blissful. Fingers/toes dissolved into awareness. Lost track of your guidance on breathing and was doing what my body wisdom wanted/needed. Had new experience of feeling like I had multiple arms: I was aware of my physical arms v relaxedby my side plus awareness of arms in prayer and arms out wide receiving/or like wings. Gratefully recieved thank you Ally 💖

Thank you Ally This was beautiful. I felt much softer in my embodiment today and experiencing more nuanced feelings. It was great to be so deeply relaxed, in a hypnogogic space and be simultaneously aware. It feels like progression in the skill of yoga nidra today. Namaste ❤

Ally, I just started Module 3 and this practice was out of this world. I felt heat in my hands and feet, tingling, buzzing, vibrating… at one moment I felt as if I was floating or flying, I felt so light… I could stay aware while my body sank in so deeply into relaxation… thank you so much ❤

[@madjoan]

Very relaxing and restorative. Especially loved the images and the alternate breathing. Thank you.

[@cherylsmithwinberry7705]

I am so enjoying exploring each of your meditations. This one drew my attention today. It is truly a balm for any stress my nervous system may be holding. The chimes were hypnotic. I really appreciated the experience of moving awareness between the two sides of my body, guided by the rhythms of breath. At some point, the experience of melting into awareness, being awareness itself, became all encompassing. Profoundly peaceful to take refuge in this “true self.” Your deep work in this practice, and joy-skill sharing with us is a blessing. Namaste Ally 🙏🏽

[@katrinabesner7324]

I loved this experience. The chimes really helped me get into the state of complete surrender. I am finalizing module 3 and this session has helped me deepen my understanding of a few elements. Namaste 🙏

[@kaceofbaseable]

I'm becoming more attuned to the buzzing sensation now that I am understanding the dimensions of pranamayakosha.

Thank you for guiding me into another beautiful day ✨🙏✨
