Last weekend, I had the honor of teaching the Yoga Nidra module for the 200-hour YTT and I’m leaving the experience feeling so grateful.

This was my first time teaching a full module like this, and it meant so much to share space with such thoughtful yoga teachers in training. Together, we explored the foundations and philosophy of Yoga Nidra, states of consciousness, the koshas, nervous system regulation, and the deeper intention behind the practice before dropping into an embodied IAM Yoga Nidra experience together.

Even for experienced yoga practitioners and teachers, Yoga Nidra can be surprisingly challenging. Many of us are more familiar with practices rooted in movement, effort, discipline, and doing. Yoga Nidra asks something different of us. It asks us to soften, receive, witness, and rest in awareness itself.

What stayed with me most was witnessing the willingness of the students to slow down and surrender into the practice of non-doing, which can sometimes be just as powerful, and just as transformative, as the more active practices we often associate with yoga.

I honor each of them for trusting me enough to drop into that experience together and explore the deeper layers of their own awareness and true peaceful nature.

So much gratitude to for welcoming me into your training and trusting me with this module.

And to the students, thank you for your presence, curiosity, openness, and willingness to explore.

As my teacher says, “Energy knows the way home.” -

Honored to spend last Tuesday afternoon with the Medtronic Desert Corazon team.

In rooms filled with driven, high-performing people, choosing to pause together is powerful. We moved, we breathed, we rested… And created space for clarity and recovery.

Grateful for each of you who showed up fully, and for the willingness to invest in your own well-being.

“I am calm, clear, and restored.”
