Yoga Nidra

We will practice this ancient form of yoga many of the days.  It is a deeply restful practice, moving through different levels of consciousness with guided meditation provided by the teacher.  Learn skills to find and foster stillness and relaxation in the body, leading to lower stress hormone levels, less inflammation in the body and a healthier, calmer life.  
Deep intention-setting is also incorporated into this practice, planting the seeds for lasting growth and change.  You will have the opportunity to journal, reflect, and absorb the practices learned this week.

Here is an excellent article of a Harvard study about the benefits of adding meditation to a vacation: lasting genetic changes around the stress response and immune function:
