Manju, Karan
Yoga Nidra, also known as yogic sleep, has emerged as a potential therapeutic tool in managing insomnia, a common sleep disorder characterized by difficulty falling or staying asleep. The practice of Yoga Nidra involves a deep state of conscious relaxation, guiding practitioners into a meditative state that bridges the gap between wakefulness and sleep. This article explores the effects of Yoga Nidra on insomnia, focusing on its physiological and psychological impacts, as well as its potential to improve sleep quality and promote overall well-being. Through a review of existing literature and scientific studies, we examine how Yoga Nidra can alleviate the symptoms of insomnia by reducing stress, enhancing relaxation, and regulating the nervous system. The article also discusses the practical application of Yoga Nidra in clinical settings and suggests future research directions to further validate its therapeutic benefits.
