What is the difference between Meditation & Yoga Nidra?
Meditation is a practice that involves eliminating distractions to achieve a state of mental clarity, and heightened awareness. The aim is to reach a state of mindfulness and promote overall well-being.
Yoga Nidra, or yogic sleep, on the other hand, is a guided practice that leads to conscious deep relaxation. The aim here is to achieve profound relaxation, reduce stress and anxiety, improve sleep quality, and promote healing.
What are the benefits of Yoga Nidra?
Yoga Nidra is a guided process towards deep relaxation. It helps to eliminate sleep-related problems. It also helps to release suppressed emotions leading to greater emotional stability.
How do I start meditating?
Set your intention for the meditation and start your practice. Try to start with a small duration (5-10 minutes) and you can increase the duration gradually. Firstly, find a quiet place with fewer distractions and get comfortable seated or lying down.
Is meditation better than asana practice?
There is no such thing as meditation being better than asana practice. It all depends on the individual goals and needs. According to the eight limbs of yoga, meditation is one of the highest stages of yoga, and one must master the primary practices like asana and pranayama to reach the higher levels.
