IRest is very adaptable - it can be used as a spiritual practice but also as a tool for psychological healing. It draws on the wisdom Dr Miller's yogic understanding and also his experience as a psychologist. But this version of yoga nidra - iRest Yoga Nidra - was developed over the past 50 years by Dr Richard Miller (a yogic scholar and practitioner and a clinical psychologist). Yoga Nidra is an ancient practice first mentioned in the Upanishads. iRest is commonly practised lying on the floor on a yoga mat or similar although it is also often practised sitting in a chair or on the floor or even standing. It also accesses deeper levels of the mind enabling healing and transformation.Īlthough it is yoga therapy it is different from the asana the physical postures that people tend to think of when they think of yoga. The practice supports an experience of deep relaxation. IRest Yoga Nidra Meditation is a yoga therapy practice that involves being guided into the hypnogogic state (the healing state between sleep and wakefulness) and through the stages of the practice ending with grounding and integrating the experience into the waking state.
