I looked around for the best Yoga Nidra training I could find and found this one. But even still, it exceeded my expectations.
Auður Eva Ásberg
Jóga Nidra námið hjá Auði og Kamini Desai var dásamleg upplifun sem ég mun búa að og nýta mér alla ævi. Það var einstaklega dýrmætt að fá faglega og djúpa fræðslu um áhrif Yoga Nidra á taugakerfið, og hvernig hægt er að vinna markvisst með þetta öfluga verkfæri til heilunar og jafnvægis. Ég mæli heilshugar með þessu námi fyrir alla sem vilja dýpka skilning sinn og upplifa umbreytandi áhrif Yoga Nidra.
