Last night’s Yoga Nidra for Sensitive Souls was recorded live during our weekly gathering, and I’m feeling so much joy to share the replay with you here.
Before each session, I take half an hour to sit, tuning in and creating the energetic field we enter together. Last night, I felt a strong call for clarity and spaciousness. I created the space around me using different shades of white—textures and materials that invite stillness. A soft white sheepskin beneath me. A large, off-white shell from my mother’s collection. Selenite and a clear quartz crystal on the altar.
I lit two white candles and offered herbs I had gathered that day: wild mugwort from my walk, a sprig of white sage growing on my terrace, and a small quaint pinecone. These quiet gestures, these invitations to presence, helped form the container.
I also positioned two singing bowls: my crystal alchemy bowl, resonant with the sacral chakra, and my crisp white quartz bowl, which to me moves through the heart, the throat, and even the head. At times I added the delicate sound of African chimes, whose woody sounds dance beautifully with the bowls’ tones.
As I guided the practice, I spoke about the importance of cultivating inner silence especially now, when the collective psychic field feels so charged. Returning to the stillness within ourselves is not just healing; it’s a quiet offering to the world. When we hold spaciousness inside, we ripple that frequency outward. We remind the collective field that presence is possible, and that peace is not only a longing, but a living embodied reality.
May this practice be a sanctuary for your sensitive soul.
With love,
