    I work 24-hour shifts and found that I was squandering my precious down time on screens. Once I transitioned to paper reading materials and doing nsdrs with my hat pulled over my eyes, it's been an enormous Game changer. Not only am I able to function better with the critical aspects of my profession, I'm able to have more restorative sleep on my off days. It's worth acknowledging that these magical little devices we carry around with us all the time have billions of dollars worth of technology and research behind them to better keep our attention. To be addicted to them is very understandable but it's just as real and harmful as many others sorts of addiction❤

    I discovered Yoga Nidra (NSDR) almost exactly 2 years ago, and have only missed about 6 days in that time. I do a 15 to 25 minute practice every night before bed, but I also do them in the mornings that I'm feeling particularly anxious. I sometimes fall asleep as soon as I've done my breathing exercises, but I don't get upset with myself. That just means my body needs the rest.
    The practice is incredibly relaxing.

    NSDR is something I first experienced backninnthe 80s with a substitute music teacher at school. Not knowing that it was Yoga Nidra I continued to use it periodically when I was really stressed late & night & was having trouble falling asleep. Since Andrew discussed it I have used it primarily before starting my day on nights when I haven't been able to sleep or only got 2-3 hours of sleep, & it has been a huge help to be more alert & productive throughout the day whike consuming much less caffeine & or kratom.

      NSDR refers to non-sleep deep rest. It is an umbrella term that covers clinical hypnosis, yoga nidra, and related guided meditations, visualizations, and relaxation techniques that can produce a profound state of rest within body and mind. Meditation more broadly refers to absorption. You become deeply engaged with an object or process, and the more you do it, the more immersed you are in the experience until you feel at one with the object of meditation or the process of observation.

    • @DSRelax-em3sd
      @DSRelax-em3sd Před měsícem +1

      Not sure if it directly improves quality of sleep (I’d guess it does slightly simply because it reduces anxiety), but it helps me get to sleep faster so it could definitely help if it takes you more than ~15m to fall asleep.
      Although, there are a lot of other ways you could improve quality of sleep to reduce the amount of time you need to sleep. Diet, exercise (especially cardio), sleeping in a completely dark and cool room, and basically anything you can do to reduce anxiety could help. Also, don’t take caffeine ~8 hours before bed, don’t drink alcohol ~4 hours before bed, don’t eat big meals before bed, and don’t supplement melatonin regularly unless it’s been prescribed.

      @@DSRelax-em3sd yeah. His logic seems a little sus though. I do like his work and listen to him regularly and am thankful to him for popularizing yoga nidra to wider world but wish he saw that renaming well established things is not a good thing. He likes the knowledge of yoga nidra but thinks his audience doesnt like the culture it comes from. So instead of working to promote the original name, he renames it and it conveniently helps him sell it with new branding without much competition. Its not the first time english has added foreign words. Nobody has renamed yoga to something like “ non sleep stretching and alignment” so i dont see the need to recoin another term for yoga nidra either.

      @@sabindevkota8461 I’ve only been doing yoga nidra for a few months now so I’m not super passionate about the issue. But honestly, putting myself in the shoes of someone who’s been doing it for years (and/or for whom it might be a significant part of their culture), I understand why him branding a very similar practice as NSDR is a bit shady and might be frustrating. Also, I agree that him monetizing it at the same time isn’t the best look.
