Today be prepared to have your heart open wider. In this 6-minute episode, certified Daring to Rest facilitator and magical mama, Jo Blackman, shares how yoga nidra has touched her life and why she now teaches it in New Zealand to mothers.
Jo's poignant story speaks to one of my favorite benefits of practicing yoga nidra regularly: the power of planting an intention. After the birth of her second child and experiencing post natal depression, Jo set herself the intention of something she wanted to be as a mom.
"I am a peaceful, present, positive, patient, playful, pain-free, purple, mindful magical mama."
She practiced with this intention for three years, and what happened next is something I can't wait for you to hear in this episode. As Jo says, "Yoga nidra brought me back home to my heart, to my essence as a woman, and reminded me of the fact that I am magical." This is why she now share yoga nidra with other mothers at her Heartspace studio in Auckland, New Zealand.
Enjoy, and a big shout out to all the magical mamas!
