Setting up your space
It is important that during your 1-1 Nidra Healing, the space is atmospheric and effort has gone into your Ritual Space in order to get the most out of your experience.
Creating a ritual, tranquil space is the first act of self-care into rewiring your mind and thoughts to achieve a better life. Using the same equipment each time you practice your Nidra healing; will help you slip into the receptive state of mind, naturally and quicker each time.
The space:
Needs to be somewhere quiet where you wont be disturbed.
Big enough for you to lie down, flat on your back. Ideally on a yoga mat or carpet.
Dim atmospheric lighting/ darkness.
Candles, at least one.
Incense to enhance the senses.
You may want any special objects around you: crystals, flowers/plants, anything the makes you feel close to loved ones or spiritual guides.
Getting comfortable:
When I practice my Nidra healings, I completely cocoon myself in blankets to offer security, comfort and nourishment for whatever may arise during the practice.
You may want a bloster/rolled up towel to go under the knees, to release pressure in the lower back.
A cushion under the head to support the neck.
Maybe a hot water bottle on your stomach to keep you warm.
Perhaps an eye cushion or piece of cloth to cover the eyes.
Headphones is often a good idea to help shut out the outside world.
After-Care:
After practice you may feel slightly spaced out, so its a good idea to have some water and a snack (dark chocolate) accessible to you, to help you drop back into your physical body.
To help you process the experience further you may want to answer these journaling questions:
How did that session make me feel? Physically and emotionally?
What have I Learnt?
What goals, aims, and promises to myself, do I choose to make to help me be my happiest most radiant self?
What daily affirmations am I going to use to help me become more aligned to my truest self?
