Yogic sleep and singing bowls with Rosalie e Silva
Hit the pause button and completely relax with this guided meditation accompanied by the sounds of singing bowls.
This meditation is based on yoga nidra, or yogic sleep. Your body will be guided to relax whilst you keep your mind awake and alert. In this highly receptive state, you let go of tension, blocks and anything that no longer serves you. The vibrations of the singing bowls will help you journey inwards even deeper.

Adriene Mishler: Welcome everyone and welcome to Yoga with Adriene. I’m Adriene and this is Benji. Let’s begin today’s practice on the ground in extended child’s pose. So come on down. Take your time getting here. I invite you to allow the sound of my voice to guide you here. You’ll want to bow the head. Knees are gonna come as wide as your yoga mat. Big toes to touch. Fingertips reaching all the way forward and, as everybody slowly come on down, melting your heart slowly towards the earth.
