Empowering Growth Through Transformative Trainings
During this course, your body gracefully reclines, inviting your consciousness to explore new dimensions of timelessness, expansion, and awareness. Teaching and experiencing this ancient practice can open the heart and mind to a deeper understanding of relaxation and the boundless expanse of consciousness.
This training goes beyond merely acquiring a new meditation technique; it is an exploration and expansion of your inborn potential — an invitation to be authentically yourself and step into your unique light.
In this comprehensive training, the focus is on the first three layers of the body: Annamaya Kosha (physical body), Pranamaya Kosha (energy body), and Manomaya Kosha (emotional/mental body). Yoga Nidra, when combined with the intentional setting of a Sankalpa (an intention), becomes a powerful tool. The course introduces and develops the art of crafting and working with a Sankalpa.
During this 30-hour immersion, you will delve into the foundational teachings of the practice, explore various styles, and study sacred texts. Traditional Yoga Nidra techniques, including those of the Himalayan Masters and Bihar School, are covered. Additionally, you will be introduced to other styles such as IAM Yoga Nidra, iRest, Clear Light, and Shamanic Yoga Nidra practices.
A significant aspect of the training involves closely working with a Sankalpa, which evolves and transforms throughout the shared time. The curriculum also includes the study of the neurological science behind Yoga Nidra, the influence of the Koshas on the practice (5 bodies), and the health benefits of Yoga Nidra on the nervous system. Upon completion, you will leave with four unique sample Yoga Nidra scripts, including one crafted by yourself during the process.

MEET YOUR FACILITATOR
Flavia is an international yoga & meditation teacher (E-RYT), Shamanic Reiki Master, and Ceremonial Guide.
For me, Yoga Nidra has never simply been a relaxation technique. It has become a way of relating to life.
Over the years it has transformed the way I experience my body, my nervous system and my relationship with silence. It has taught me that some of the deepest forms of healing arise not through doing more, but through learning to rest, to listen and to trust.
My own path has led me through many different traditions, including classical Yoga Nidra, Clear Light Yoga Nidra, Tantra, Vajrayana Buddhism, Nada Yoga and Shamanic Wisdom Practices. Rather than teaching these as separate systems, I love exploring the places where they meet and illuminate one another.
I hold a Master’s degree in Literary Theory and have spent many years studying mythology, symbolism and contemplative traditions. Alongside this academic background, it is my own lived experience that continues to shape the way I teach.
My intention is not simply to share knowledge, but to create spaces where students can discover their own inner wisdom, develop confidence in their unique voice and experience Yoga Nidra as a living practice that continues to unfold long after the training has ended.
