Yoga Nidra is a powerful yogic practice that has been shown to have a number of benefits, including improved sleep, reduced anxiety and depression, enhanced focus and concentration, and increased self-awareness and mindfulness.

Yoga Nidra is generally safe for most people, but there are some contraindications, including recent surgery, serious medical conditions, epilepsy, panic disorder, claustrophobia, and inability to lie still. It is important to deliver these techniques in a responsible way, as they may not be safe for everyone. 

In this module, you’ll learn to recognise the signs that may indicate when these practices could be contraindicated for your student or client.
