This practice is ideal pre-bed, to wind down on a day when you're feeling wired but tired. Hope you find it helpful, MP3 is available in the description if it's of interest. Thanks for your support! - Lucas @ YOGABODY
I can't go to bed without practicing this muscle relaxing yoga nidra. It's been a game changer for me. Thank you, Sir. Ever since I've found you on Ted, I've been a huge fan.
Honestly I have been having really terrible sleep the last few months I do this before I go to bed every night and if I wake up during the night it does really help thank you so much.
@batlevi2247 did it work for you ? Before I was getting 4/5 hours a night for months,,some days I would crash and get 8/9 but normally it was bad. This really really helps me x
I have been doing this for weeks now since I found you on RUclips. When I wake in the middle of the night, it helps me go back to sleep quickly. Thank you for this.
Thank you so much Lucas for this awesome, easy to follow video. With Duchenne muscular dystrophy I have chronically tight muscles and it’s often challenging to get them to relax. This along with your videos on the vagus nerve has helped greatly with relaxation and has aided my qigong practice 😊❤
For some reason I found the visualisation aspect of this really off putting. I'm not criticising the vid cos it's obviously personal, I just found it interesting. I can't really be sure but I almost felt like it might have been easier to picture a ball of light separate from me, or if not, just on top of me rather than inside (and it's not because the thought of it inside me freaks me out or anything). Or maybe just not have to visualise at all. I don't think I generally find visualisation challenging but I haven't done loads of things that incorporate it. Anyhow, I just thought it was interesting that I found it such a struggle 🤔
Usually PMR helps me relax for bed time, but tonight my anxiety is just too much. However, this is a very unique method you use to walk people through this meditation! I'm definitely saving this one for later. Thank you for your insight for those of us suffering severe stress and anxiety!
I have ADHD and sleeping is hard for me, I have a lot of energy and thoughts when its bed time. This video is helping me sleep better every night. This is my 3rd night using it
That's wonderful to hear! We're so glad to be a helpful part of your bedtime routine. Consistent, restful sleep is crucial, especially with ADHD. - YOGABODY Team
Please for those of us who have trouble visualizing the yellow light, any suggestions? I tried to just focus on feeling warmth in those areas while doing the practice. But if you have other suggestions I'm appreciative.
Try it with imagining the light of a Laserpointer or flashlight on the specific area where you want to feel the energy ball. Or imagine to swallow a tiny ball of light - once it's inside your body, you can direct it to wherever place in your body. Maybe along the way of your muscles or your nerves. It helps to remember the feeling you have when taking a sip of hot tea that runs down your throat into your stomach.
I can’t visualize much, either. I just imagine each part (like the foot) relaxing and dropping completely on the floor/bed and letting go of it, for progressive relaxation.
I’m so confused. I don’t know if I’m contracting my muscles right or wrong, I got a cramp in my left foot immediately, does this exercise help everyone. Like those whom are very out of shape who don’t stretch or do any type of exercises? And are over 50 years old?
I feel stuff like this should be tried out before going on prescription medication. I was on it for years for sleeping but I tried this and I don't need any prescription medication anymore
Tingling can be normal during some stretches, but ease up or stop if it's uncomfortable. We're glad you found the practice relaxing! Remember to listen to your body. - YOGABODY Team
A big Thanks to you ! because of this therapy I got relief from my migraine, brain tiredness, and most importantly my anger issue's finished. Now I'm living my day happily and sleeping peacefully 🤝🏻☺️
Thanks for mentioning the visualization aspect early in the video. Having aphantasia often leads to more activation than relaxation whenever there’s visualization component
While this meditation primarily focuses on relaxation and anxiety, it might indirectly help with headaches by reducing overall stress and tension. A calm mind can often lead to fewer headaches. Give it a try and see how it works for you! - YB Team
Thanks for acknowledging the research. In case you’re interested, the specific ‘mechanism“ at work here is the relaxation response as identified by Dr Herbert Benson. The relaxation response is the opposite of the flight or flight response and eliciting it regularly leads to a range of positive outcomes. Thanks for the video- great job!
This link was recommended by a friend. I love his voice guiding me through step by step to help me focus relaxing all my muscles. It's very comforting after a long day where I feel overtired and wound up at the same time. Thank you for this great relaxing meditation video.
I disagree, I found it just fine. Mindfulness is the art of allowing. You can get creative and take what you like and leave the rest without letting it affect your practice.
Tried very hard but unfortunately didn’t work for me … my muscles and still tensed .. i was annoyed when i was trying to focus on the ball while u were constantly talking shifting my concentration again and again
You are the conductor of your destiny, orchestrating serenity. Choose to dance in the melody of tranquility, for within every calm step lies the strength to conquer. Embrace the power of now, releasing the grip of yesterday's stress and tomorrow's uncertainties. Your potential is boundless when nurtured in a stress-free garden. Believe in your resilience, savor the present, and let peace be your guiding star.if you want completely stree or tension MSG I will help you
You'll learn progressive Muscle Relaxation, breathing techniques, and Simple Visualisation in this video. With this, you can consider it's also practiced. - YOGABODY Team

If someone is having dizziness can they do this
Man, sure would be great if you could get the MP3 without being forced to sign up for a newsletter.
Perfect thank you ❤️
I tried this just now after havimg an emotional breakdown and i honestly feel so much calmer now
Glad it helped to make you calm, Annika!

The exact same reason why I started doing this! Terrible sleep schedule, so I’m giving this a go!
@batlevi2247 did it work for you ? Before I was getting 4/5 hours a night for months,,some days I would crash and get 8/9 but normally it was bad. This really really helps me x
I do not feel relaxed. I now have cramp in my foot😂
You don't need to contract your mussels that hard my guy
You’re doing it too hard
😂
Your snarky RUclips comment missed the mark. Yawn.
It's incredible how much more relaxed I feel after this, like I just spent a day at a spa, incredible! Thank you so much Lucas :)
Wow this is good but I'm disappointed you skipped the shoulders. I carry a lot of tension in my shoulders so it would've been nice to include them.
Same here!

I fell asleep after 5 minutes of this 😆
I love this, it knocks me out.
To anyone out there trying this to relieve period pain, don't do the pelvic one, it makes contractions hurt even more
Thank you for this well guided and relaxing walk-through of the body to ‘come out of your head’ and being more grounded in the now.
I Rarely Comment On Videos, But Damn This One Deserves It , Thanks Thank you so Much ❤

It’s quite astonishing how relaxed I feel in the 20mins or so after doing this
Glad it helped, Lyall!

Great! Videos. I prefer yoga nidra to other types of meditation. My mind gets too busy with other meditation.
This practice relaxed me immensely and drifted me into sleep. I needed something to release tension from my body, so thank you so much! ❤
Thanks a bunch for your appreciation @ilaria4716!

Thank you so much, I was able to visualise the light and your guidance helped make the experience very relaxing.
This is my go to video that I use every nigh. It helps me out so much to turn off my brain. Thank you so much man!!

Hey it also helps for healing trauma
Please for those of us who have trouble visualizing the yellow light, any suggestions? I tried to just focus on feeling warmth in those areas while doing the practice. But if you have other suggestions I'm appreciative.
Good idea!
It didn't work for me either, I can't picture a ball at all! Always nice to have a lie down though!

Thanks, Winther! Hope you're well...
For reeeeeal dude, I've tried so many meditation / relaxation videos, and he's definitely got the best voice I've heard so far for this type of video
The Ball imaging is superb/ I would add letting breathe out through the mouth - what do you think?
Thanks Donna!
Excellent process.Every possible major area relaxed.Very effective l for stress management.Bravo!!!
Thank you very much for this. Peace, love and happiness. ♥️♥️

This worked pretty damn well.

The bright light is gone, but what do I do with all of the melons, apples and tennis balls? 😂🎾

Deep muscle relaxation can be a game-changer. So glad it worked for you.

I am very happy to be your subscriber. Thank you.

Ill give it a try
Can this also help with anxiety my friend?
Lots of tingling on various extremities, very uncomfortable at first but I found it very relaxing. I’ll be practicing this again!

It's hard to focus on the light and breathing and tensing. I do agree that guided techniques help if you're in a state of anxiety or pain.
Keep practicing, and guided meditations can be a great tool for managing anxiety or pain.

Very relaxing! Thank you. Can you please share the music/soundtrack playing in the background?
Like your technique and tone. Just too much of ball you used while guiding. Its distracting!
I disagree, I found it just fine. Mindfulness is the art of allowing. You can get creative and take what you like and leave the rest without letting it affect your practice.
Can't relax on this shouting voice. Too fast narration
Tried very hard but unfortunately didn’t work for me … my muscles and still tensed .. i was annoyed when i was trying to focus on the ball while u were constantly talking shifting my concentration again and again
I’m thinking that I didn’t do this right, because I got a cramp in my left foot right away.
Could not follow this yoga nidra

Thank you Maria!
"A littlr visualization" Well, im out... i have aphabtasia, and they always gotta use visualization, its bullshit
Where do we have to imagine the light ball ?Is it inside or outside the body?
For deep muscle relaxation, imagine the light ball inside your body.
