Join world-leading yoga nidra teacher and author of the Book of Rest James Reeves for a restful and relaxing day of guided movement, deep rest, and yoga nidra meditations, allowing you to slip into a state of deep presence and effortless tranquility.
What's involved?
On these rest-day retreats, you will be asked to do very little and instead allow yourself to be guided into a state of deep rest and relaxation. We’ll practice some gentle though powerfully relaxing movement and breathing practices, take some time to lay down and rest, practice Yoga Nidra (guided Deep Rest), and explore some philosophy that will help you feel more rested in your day-to-day life.

What people say:
“It amazes me how even your energizing classes are calming and deeply grounding, how you can turn simple yoga poses into deep dives into our being, how you make the prana vayus and yoga philosophy so accessible and practical. You are truly an amazing teacher and your voice is so soothing that it truly seems like you were born to be a yoga nidra facilitator; even listening to your audio book felt like a relaxation.” – Sarah Maar
“I reached ‘that place’. That place between the breath in meditation, that place that only you could try and describe, that wonderful, wonderful place. It only took me about 10 minutes to get there. It’s truly amazing to me that after the amount of time (and money) I have spent trying to stop the ‘mental chatter’ that I now have a method that I really enjoy. I can’t believe the simplicity and beauty of the method.” – Daniel Morris
“Thank you for the session, it was just what I didn’t know I needed!” – Lawrie Minty
