iRest® Yoga Nidra is a simple, accessible and highly effective form of meditation that is easy to learn and practice. It is suitable for everyone of all ages and walks of life and offers profound tools for transformation and improved wellbeing.
iRest is an evidence-based, trauma informed, transformative meditation and deep relaxation program developed by my teacher Dr Richard Miller. This mind-body approach will help you relax deeply, release stress and tension, increase your resiliency and improve your overall sense of wellbeing and vitality.
While enjoying deep rest in a supported prone position practitioners of yoga nidra are guided through the pancha maya kosha (five layers of self); a systematic meditation that leaves you feeling refreshed, centred and calm.
iRest offers a truly integrative approach to healing unresolved issues and past traumas that may be effecting your current health and wellbeing. The practice of iRest allows participants to rediscover inner peace and equanimity regardless of the changing circumstances of life.
Growing research shows iRest® effectively reduces stress, insomnia, anxiety, depression, chronic pain & post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and cultivates your capactity to experience greater joy, equanimity & wellbeing in daily life.

- Decrease in symptoms of depression, anxiety and low mood
