By revealing our innate wholeness, iRest helps us understand that it is the misperception of the mind that leads us to believe we are separate and limited entities. This releases us from the trap of trying to ‘get somewhere’ that is other than right here where we are. The difference between iRest Yoga Nidra and other types of therapy is that we start from the place in ourselves that is already completely whole and without need. These sheaths (also called koshas) include the physical body, the energy body, the sensation, feeling and emotional bodies, the bodies of thought and imagery, and the bodies of bliss and personal ego identity. The practice awakens the realization of one’s deepest desires and great potential for healing.ĭuring iRest meditation, sheaths or layers of Being are openly explored with no goal, except to simply be with whatever arises during the process. IRest® differs from other mindfulness meditation practices in that you are invited to relax in a comfortable resting position, such as lying down or seated in a chair while being guided verbally by a teacher or a recording. Jeanne Dillion leads group iRest classes as well as individual sessions. IRest® Yoga Nidra is a profound, yet accessible, meditation practice that systematically combines deep relaxation, affirmation, breathing, mindfulness, visualization and self-inquiry to facilitate the integration of body, mind, and spirit.
