YOGA NIDRA - IN BEAUTY I WALK
Partly this yoga nidra is inspired by the energy of summer and the element of Fire, both representing the peak of Yang, a cycle reaching its full manifestation. One beautiful notion about this phase that often gets overlooked, is being present with what we've created in gratitude. Being able to see and appreciate the beauty of creation. To tend and nourish our inner light by resting in wholeness, in gratitude, in fullness.
Some of my wording in this Yoga Nidra was fueled by the poetics offerings of my favorite astrologer Rene Sills from Embodied Astrology: www.embodiedastrology.com/
For the practice, make sure you are comfortable:
*pillow or blanket under the head
*bolster/pillows under knees to release lower back
*blanket to cover
*something to cover the eyes

And finally, the main theme of the Nidra was sprouted after hearing a Diné prayer called "In beauty I walk":
My eyes see beauty
My thought find beauty
My feelings rouse beauty
My words name beauty
With beauty above me, I walk
With beauty below me, I walk
With beauty behind me and before me, I walk
With beauty all around me, I walk
Through the returning seasons, I walk in beauty
On the trail blessed with pollen, I walk in beauty
With mist falling and moon rising, I walk in beauty
It is finished in beauty
It is finished in beauty
The Navajo or Diné -the people - see the world through the lens of hozho: all the goodness to be found through harmony, balance, beauty, and blessing.
