Empower the World—Starting with Yourself
Neuroscientists have shown:
Only 5% of our brain's activity occurs at the level of consciousness.
This means nearly all of your decisions, actions, beliefs, and emotions are driven by a part of your brain that lives outside of your control. Until now.
The Adaptive Unconscious: this is what neuroscientists call this inaccessible part of the brain. And sadly, for most of us, our lives have become victims of its hidden, sabotaging influence.
It's a problem that can cause us to needlessly suffer from physical, mental, and emotional dis-ease, it can damage our relationships and deplete our well-being, and can dramatically limit our potential in virtually every aspect of life. Things like...
👉 Perpetuating the effects from trauma or loss...
👉 Keeping us trapped in harmful habits or addiction...
👉 Damaging our most cherished relationships...
👉 Hampering healing from physical illness or injury...
👉 Obstructing our true potential for success and abundance...
And so much more.
This is why Yoga Nidra is such a powerfully transformative force.
Best known as a type of meditation, Yoga Nidra would be better described as a modular transformational modality; one that is scientifically-proven to make meaningful and lasting changes in the Adaptive Unconscious—as well as in other maladaptive mental patterns harmfully affecting our perspectives and behaviors.
Best of all, it can be used effectively with people from all walks of life regardless of physical ability or religious or cultural background.
This training has completely changed how I work with my therapy clients!
So much of what I learned meshed perfectly with my work with CBT and DBT! I feel like I have a whole new set of tools to help my clients with.

How Yoga Nidra Works...
Yoga Nidra is a multifaceted modality that can be employed to help us recognize, release, and replace sabotaging mental patterns that negatively impact our health, relationships, and success in life.
Central to the Yoga Nidra process is the creation of progressively slower brain-wave states, something called Transient Hypofrontality, to nourish the nervous system and make the brain more receptive to repatterning.
Yoga Nidra uses this state as an opportunity to dispense a customized array of somatic and cognitive techniques designed to neutralize the underlying causes and conditions of whatever dis-ease or imbalance is being remedied.
It is a non-invasive, non-sectarian protocol that has been proven effective in helping to resolve a wide range of challenges including...
