Yoga Nidra
Experience the blissful awareness of the skin through mindful relaxation and inner observation.
Lie down comfortably, distinct from the posture for the dead. Feel your entire body and breath. Your skin is the pure, natural covering of your physical form, an energy body receiving and filtering prāṇa. Observe this energy flowing through and from the skin, expanding and contracting with each breath. This skin protects your inner world of organs and bones. Walk with awareness through this inner landscape, from the heart to the legs, feeling its processes and deliveries. Bring awareness to the brain, the controller, remaining in a state of awake awareness. Feel lightness, happiness, and oneness. The prāṇa energizes and purifies. Feel the breath on your skin's surface, a beautiful, natural dress of the five elements. Conclude with movement and chanting.
"Feel your skin, feel pleasant, but let it breathe. Very natural."
"Feel the lightness in the whole body. Feel the energy, feel the happiness, and feel the oneness, one with thyself."
