NSDR: Calming, 10 Minute Full-Body Scan
Non-Sleep Deep Rest (NSDR) or Yoga nidra is a form of guided meditation that has emerged in the literature in the past two decades as an intervention for a variety of medical conditions such as stress and mental health. It differs from traditional yoga, in that it does not require yoga poses. It is a noninvasive, cost-effective approach that is also easily accessible so it can be done in the privacy and comfort of the home. (See Musto S, Hazard Vallerand A.'s, Exploring the uses of yoga nidra: An integrative review in the Journal of Nursing Scholarship, July 25th, 2023).
