7 Benefits of Yoga Nidra

Yoga Nidra, or “Yogic Sleep”

🌙 Feeling Lost? How Yoga Nidra & Sound Can Bring You Back to Yourself

There are moments in life when we all feel it, the weight of the world pressing down, the noise in our minds growing louder, and a deep, quiet ache that whispers, “Is this all there is?”
Stress. Overwhelm. Burnout. The constant pressure to keep going, to keep giving, to hold it all together.

You might feel disconnected from your body, your joy, your intuition, or even your sense of self.
And yet, somewhere deep within you, something still longs To Soften. To Breathe. To Come Home.

This is where Yoga Nidra and Sound Healing become more than just practices; they become portals back to who you truly are.

Yoga Nidra, or “Yogic Sleep,” is a deeply restorative practice.
You don’t need to move, stretch, or even try; just lie down, listen, and receive.

In this state between waking and sleeping, your nervous system finds safety, the mind softens, and your body begins to repair.
When combined with the vibrational resonance of the gong, this experience becomes even more potent, working energetically to clear, soothe, and realign.

7 Benefits of Yoga Nidra & Sound Healing

1. Releases Stress & Anxiety
Yoga Nidra signals to your body that it’s safe to let go.
The parasympathetic nervous system activates, guiding you out of “fight or flight” and into a state of deep rest and calm, soothing anxiety and emotional overwhelm.

2. Improves Sleep & Supports Insomnia
Just one session can feel like hours of restorative sleep.
The body is given space to unwind, often leading to deeper sleep at night and a more rested, refreshed feeling during the day.

3. Gently Unwinds Emotional Tension
There’s no need to analyse or push away your feelings.
Yoga Nidra gives emotions permission to rise, soften, and move through you, allowing gentle emotional healing to unfold naturally.

4. Offers Deep Relaxation Without Effort
You don’t need to do anything but lie down and listen.
Yoga Nidra only asks for one thing: that you be open and willing to receive. That’s all. The practice will do the rest.

5. Clears Mental Fog & Enhances Clarity
When the mind gets quiet, your inner voice becomes clearer.
You might notice increased focus, creative insights, or decisions that once felt confusing become clear.

6. Reconnects You With Your True Self
Beyond the roles, the expectations, and the noise, Yoga Nidra reconnects you to the part of you that is always steady, your inner wisdom, your truth, your light.

7. Combining Sound for Deeper Healing
The Gong and chakra-aligned instruments offer vibrational support that moves through the energetic body, clearing stagnancy, amplifying intention, and leaving you feeling grounded and uplifted.

Clare Hodkinson

At the age of 40, I experienced a deep feeling of being lost that shifted the course of my life. It was a scary but courageous decision to leave an 18-year career behind and step into the world of holistic well-being.

Through this journey, I discovered the power of a holistic approach, reconnecting with my true self and finding meaning and joy in life.

Now, I’m honored to share this transformation with others, guiding beautiful souls back to their authentic selves.

Through my training in Clinical Reflexology, Reiki (which has been a personal practice of mine for over eight years), Aromatherapy, Meditation, Hatha Yoga 500 hours, Crystal Therapy, Sound, and the Lived Wisdom I’ve gathered from my own experiences, I support others in creating balance and harmony within their lives.

If you're ready to reconnect with your true self and live your life to the fullest, I’d be delighted to guide you on your journey back to your True Self.

Let’s walk this path together.
