Yoga Nidra promotes deep rest and relaxation that isn’t found in your average meditation practice

This training is open to ALL people, unqualified, or qualified yoga teachers.
Beginners, or advanced Yoga practitioners.

SUITABLE FOR EVERYONE

Anyone can do Yoga Nidra

Intense vinyasa flows and long asana holds are not for everyone. Yoga Nidra, however, is a practice that everyone, from children to seniors, can do. It’s easy to follow at any age. All that your body needs to do is lie down on the floor. And even if you can’t lie down on the floor, you can still do this practice seated.

You cannot practice Yoga Nidra incorrectly

As you lie down, supported in savasana, all you have to do is follow the voice that is guiding you. It’s likely that you will remember certain parts of the meditation and not others. Every time you come to the practice you encounter a new experience—none of which is wrong. Falling asleep is okay too, as you will still receive benefits while the unconscious mind is absorbing the practice.

Yoga Nidra offers the opportunity to

LEARN ABOUT YOURSELF INTIMATELY

Some people crave the profound relaxation that this practice instills, while other practitioners use the non-judgmental and secure atmosphere that yoga nidra provides as a window into themselves.

Yoga Nidra offers a space to explore what you need in the moment, as well as an opportunity to work on releasing long-held emotions. During Yoga Nidra you are able to experience an emotion and come “face to face” with what you want to overcome, without “diving into it” completely—meaning without feeling the emotion so completely that you become overwhelmed. Over time you continue to experience the emotion and associated feelings, moving deeper into the practice.

About your Training Hosts:

I’m Kristy (otherwise known as J’anaki), and my passion is helping Wellness Practitioners find satisfaction in their work by revolutionizing how they do business. I specialize in balancing Feminine Wellness with grounded business mentorship, allowing practitioners to thrive without stress.

 

Following my pregnancy in 2009, I moved beyond the corporate space and became a Pregnancy Yoga Specialist and so my passion for the womb began! I later became a Fertility Yoga Specialist, then a Lifeline Counsellor for women with Womb Trauma. In 2011 I completed Shamanic Studies to then serve the work energetically, emotionally (counselling), and physically (yoga).

After elevating the Red Tent movement within South Africa in 2015, I decided to launch the SHE Academy where I train Red Tent Facilitators and Women’s Wellness Practitioners on how to hold their own sacred wellness spaces. I have recently set up an NPO for The Global Womb and Wellbeing Collective so that we may offer the work to those in deep need, without the means to access the care they require to heal from Womb-based Trauma, Gender Based Violence and Period Poverty.

With 14 years of experience and expertise in running five Women’s Wellness businesses, I’ve helped countless practitioners step into or elevate their Professional Private Practice.

My motivation comes from valuing my freedom, spending quality time with my daughter, and prioritizing my personal transformation and wellness.
