"The soothing, restorative combination of practices of Nourishing Rest, and in particular Yoga Nidra is truly a form of gentle yet 'powerful rest.' It has been an invaluable method to support my own wellbeing, pain management and increased energy levels."
Due to a longstanding chronic illness, I explored practices that would nourish and calm my body from exhausting pain, and depletion from the trauma effects of being ill. I have particularly found Yoga Nidra to be an invaluable tool for my wellbeing regimen, in combination with the  harmonious series of restorative Nourishing Rest practices.  They help to sustain more ease for pain management, enhance inner peace, and resilience, and to instil more balance and awareness.

For anyone with chronic illness and chronic fatigue, or on a path of recovery from burn-out or convalescing from illness, these practices help to strengthen receptivity for the body's healing process and support better and deeper quality rest and sleep.  I have personally found that by doing these practices regularly, even for short periods, helps to sustain more resilience and an increased capacity to cope better with chronic fatigue and chronic illness, especially during a bad pain flare up. 
These practices are also used to help combat PTSD and trauma and have been practiced in prisons and with ex-combat military staff to calm the nervous system and to help cope better.  Many studies have, and continue to be done, about their profound restorative benefits, particularly meditation, breathing techniques and yoga nidra. 

Anyone can benefit from these nourishing practices
for whole being well-being.
