The Flow Artists Podcast by Garden of YogaIndu Arora - A Work In, Not a WorkoutIndu Arora, a yoga and Ayurveda teacher with over two decades of experience, offers a perspective on yoga nidra that extends far beyond the structured, technique-driven formats familiar to many modern practitioners.

As she notes, "Content without context" represents one of the most significant gaps in contemporary yoga education, and understanding the philosophical foundations of yoga nidra is essential to accessing its true depth.
