Yoga Nidra Script Inspired by Nature Written by Autumn Adams You want to be as still as possible, so make sure that you’re as comfortable as possible. The body temperature does drop while yoga nidra, so drape a blanket over your body. Use a pillow or folded blanket under your head and a cushion or bolster underneath your knees will help release your lower back. If you are practicing yoga nidra, make sure that you are comfortable. If you are distracted by discomfort in your body, that distracted energy will carry over to your students. If you are facilitating yoga nidra, make sure that you are seated upright in a position that you can be still in. You may just discover that your sankalpa was hidden within this whole time. If one doesn’t come to mind, I encourage you to use the sankalpa, “I am the witness”.
Formulate your sankalpa as a positive “I am” statement. Yoga nidra is a wonderful and fertile space for working with a sankalpa. Speak clearly, with an even volume and tempo.
