This online offering fell into my lap a few weeks ago, and I am so excited to be studying with Tias and Surya Little, deeping my nidra practice and knowledge, just in time for my own offering that starts on Monday. Three weeks, three classes.
I did a weekend yoga asana immersion years ago in PDX (in person, oh those were the days!) and loved the experience...
My insights so far:
Tias style of yoga nidra is radically different from any other style or school of nidra I have ever experienced. There is no intention, no breath work, no opposites....honestly I really like and need these components.
He focuses a great deal on detailed anatomy of nidra, with special care on releasing the hands, face.
I enjoy (just as my first experience) that he incorporates poetry and potent quotes from teachers into handouts. I love a good informative handout.
Just like my yoga therapy nidra course earlier this fall, he notes that nidra isn't for everyone.
He is brilliant at explaining in detail about a good savasana nidra set up with props.
