How to practice
Settle somewhere supported, then follow clear sensory cues through different regions of the body. There is no need to concentrate tightly. Let attention move and allow the body to become increasingly quiet.

Yoga nidra
Yoga nidra is a lying-down practice that rotates attention through the body and toward a spacious, wakeful quality of rest.
When it fits
Yoga nidra is best suited to lying down, deep rest, or preparing for sleep. Nella reserves it for compatible contexts rather than forcing it into an upright or moving session.
What to expect
Attention may become clear, hazy, or drift into sleep. None of those states needs to be treated as failure. Follow the guidance when you can, let missed instructions pass, and allow the practice to remain restful rather than turning it into a concentration test.
Practice this technique with guidance.
Choose it in Nella and set the time you have. Add an intention if something specific is on your mind.
