    About this ebook

    Jill Healy-Quintard of Body and Balance guides you through the simple exercise of relaxation or Yoga Nidra.
    Yoga Nidra (the waking sleep) is part of all programs I teach. This one is modified to 10 minutes to fit into a 1 hour or a 75 minute class. Yoga Nidra can be any length from 10 minutes through to as much as 2 hours. Finishing with a seated spine twist after slowly rising from side lying or rocking back and forth to sitting adding another 2 long inhales and exhales to complete this section.
