Summary: Dear All, Here is a thirty minute practice that you can easily do at home in the evening before you go to bed, it can help you to sleep restfully. For this practice it will be useful to have a bolster or some cushions or pillows which will serve as such. You will also need a little bit of wall space, about the width of you, and I recommend investing in a lavender eye pillow or something similar to help to minimise sensory input. You don't need to do the entire practice in order to benefit from it. You can choose either the legs up the wall pose, the reclining twist or the relaxation if you are short on time. If you wake up in the night and you are using this recording to help you to get back to sleep, I recommend the reclining twist, or you could also try one of the yoga nidra recordings that I have posted alongside this one. Please be comfortable in this practice, don't try to keep up with the recording at the expense of being comfortable. Restorative yoga depends on the absolute comfort and support of the body, so do take your time to set up your pose exactly how you like it. This time is for YOU. Don't be afraid to take it as it will make you into a more giving, loving, productive person when you go back out into the world. This goes out from me to you with love, Hari OM, Morven.
