Ditch the Nap, Embrace Yoga Nidra: The Rest You Deserve
Let’s be real. You’ve probably had one of those days where you feel totally drained and think, “I just need a nap.” So, you lie down, maybe set an alarm, and try to rest… but when you wake up, you’re still tired. You’re groggy, out of it, and it feels like your body didn’t really get the memo that you were supposed to recharge.
Why Naps Don’t Always Work
Naps can be hit or miss. Sometimes they leave you more tired, or you end up waking in the middle of a sleep cycle, which can leave you feeling worse than before. They don’t always let your body rest as deeply as it needs to, especially if you’re dealing with chronic stress, nervous system overload, or emotional burnout.
Here’s the secret: Yoga Nidra is your better option.
Unlike a nap, Yoga Nidra is a deeply restorative practice that not only relaxes your body, but also recharges your mind and nourishes your soul. And the best part? It only takes about 20 minutes, but feels like you’ve had 2 hours of deep sleep.
Why Yoga Nidra Works Better Than Napping
Deep, Restorative Sleep Without Falling Asleep
Yoga Nidra takes you into a state of conscious relaxation, where your body can deeply rest without actually falling asleep. Your nervous system gets the chance to reset, release stress, and let go of tension. It’s a type of sleep yoga, designed to rejuvenate you on a cellular level—so you feel recharged and ready to conquer the day.Regulates Your Nervous System
One of the biggest benefits of Yoga Nidra is its ability to help balance your nervous system. It’s proven to lower cortisol levels, helping you feel more calm and centered. No more feeling overwhelmed and stressed—just a sense of ease and tranquility.Restores Energy and Boosts Creativity
Rest isn’t just about recharging your battery—it’s about resetting your entire mind-body connection. With Yoga Nidra, you enter an alpha and theta brainwave state, which is the perfect place to reignite your creativity, rejuvenate your energy, and boost your productivity. It’s not just about rest, it’s about creating the space for new ideas to flow.No FOMO for Your Energy
Unlike a nap that may leave you feeling groggy or out of it, Yoga Nidra leaves you feeling refreshed, rejuvenated, and energized—without the post-nap fog. You’re tapping into your true rest potential, allowing you to get back to doing what you love with more focus and clarity.

How 20 Minutes of Yoga Nidra Can Rejuvenate You (And Help You Build the Business of Your Dreams
Hey beautiful soul,
If you're constantly running on empty—whether you're a busy mom, entrepreneur, or working woman—you’re probably exhausted. But what if I told you that the secret to more energy, creativity, and productivity doesn’t come from working harder, but from resting? Sounds crazy, right? But trust me, I’ve experienced it firsthand.
When I began prioritizing rest and shifted my morning routine to include Yoga Nidra, I felt a massive shift in my life. Yoga Nidra isn’t just some relaxing practice—it’s a game changer. And I’m here to tell you how 20 minutes of rest each morning can actually rejuvenate your energy and boost your creativity.
Let’s dive into how I created my business (and how you can, too) using the power of rest.
Step 1: Stretch in Bed and Connect with My Heart
I don’t jump out of bed and rush into my day. Instead, I start with a gentle stretch. Hugging my knees to my chest and doing a quick twist to open my back. I take a deep breath and connect with my heart. This simple act of self-love sets the tone for my day.
Tip: Starting your day with love and connection reduces stress and helps you feel grounded for the day ahead.
Step 2: Hydrate & Meet Immediate Needs
After stretching, I take care of myself. I open the sliding door to let the sunlight in, rinse my face with cold water, and hydrate with Electrolyzed Reduced Water (ERW). It’s the perfect way to recharge and nourish my body.
Tip: Staying hydrated with ERW supports your body’s natural ability to release toxins, giving you more clarity and energy.
Step 3: Activate Your Energy with Movement
Next, I move my body—whether through yoga, dance, or a simple walk. Squeezing my muscles helps release the hope molecule—this acts like a natural energy booster, giving me the calm energy I need to take on the day.
Tip: Gentle movement can help activate your body's natural energy flow without burning you out. Plus, it’s a great way to start your day with intention.
Step 4: Return to Bed for Deep Rest: Yoga Nidra
I get back into bed for Yoga Nidra, also known as sleep yoga. This practice helps me slip into a high alpha, low theta brainwave state, where I can release stress, reprogram my mindset, and set powerful intentions for the day ahead.
Yoga Nidra puts me into an innovator state of mind—perfect for getting creative, solving problems, and boosting my productivity. It’s the perfect time to write in my dream book or relax into a workflow state.
Tip: Just 20 minutes of Yoga Nidra is as rejuvenating as 2 hours of deep sleep—science-backed and proven to help you reduce stress and boost creativity.
Why This Routine Works: The Power of Rest
This routine is designed to help me reclaim my energy and tap into my inner power. Yoga Nidra isn’t just about lying down. It’s about activating your body's ability to heal, rejuvenate, and align with your highest potential.
Studies show that Yoga Nidra lowers cortisol levels, enhances emotional regulation, and improves sleep—all of which are critical for reducing stress and increasing productivity.
How This Routine Transformed My Business
When I stopped focusing on the hustle and started prioritizing rest—specifically through Yoga Nidra—my creativity skyrocketed. I was able to access deeper levels of clarity and productivity, and my business grew in ways I never imagined.
Tip: Rest isn’t just a luxury—it’s a strategy. By taking time to rest, I can show up for my work, my family, and myself in a more aligned and energetic way.
Why You Should Try Yoga Nidra for Yourself
If you’re still wondering, “Can I really get this level of rest in just 20 minutes?”—the answer is YES. Yoga Nidra is scientifically proven to reset your nervous system, release stress, and leave you with lasting, calm energy. It’s time to stop the hustle and start prioritizing rest so you can show up as your best self.
