The CD contains two relaxations with Swami Janakananda, 20 and 45 minutes, based on the millennia-old science of Yoga Nidra. Roop Verma contributes with his music and the chakra-sound-symbols. No previous knowledge is required; all you have to do is lie still on your back and follow the instructions. This brings you into a state between sleep and wakefulness.

To rest in this open state on a regular basis can make it easier for you to digest everyday impressions and to meet life's challenges.

There is no method of tension relief and deep relaxation that is as comprehensive and tried-and-tested as Yoga Nidra. Research shows that deep relaxation has a stress-reducing effect; the blood pressure is balanced and the immune system is strengthened. People with insomnia have confirmed that daily use of the Experience Yoga Nidra CD helps them sleep better at night.

Comments on the effects of using the CD:

“All organs and senses of the body are rested in a way that sleep seldom provides. Your senses are sharpened and you feel invigorated afterwards. The more familiar you become with Yoga Nidra, the easier it is to glide into the relaxed state.”
- Swami Janakananda

"I find this experience absolutely fascinating. I feel refreshed and revitalized after it, and I intend to continue using it."
- Nils-Olof Jacobson, Sökaren

After a scientific research using the CD:
"We had not expected the meditators to be able to control their consciousness to such an extent."
- Brain researcher Troels Kjær, Kennedy Center, Rigshospitalet, Denmark

"My most relaxing exercise ever.
For decades, yoga nidra has been scientifically proven to improve your immune system, normalize your blood pressure, reduce stress, anxiety, headaches, stomachaches, and chest pains. It has even helped soldiers deal with post-traumatic stress disorder."
- Karen Pallisgaard, Health Editor, Femina Weekly

"I wish I had found the CD years ago as I have suffered from depression a long time and I really believe that yoga nidra is helping already. And the effect seems to be cumulative. The yoga nidra is a joy to do and I haven’t needed any self discipline to keep me motivated."
- Margaret Green, UK

"I experience reduced anxiety and better sleep. I am very grateful to Swami Janakananda for providing such a wonderful gift to humanity. Thank you."
- Liam Phillips, Australia

"It never ceases to amaze me that such seemingly simple instructions can have such a powerful effect."
- Nicola Birch, UK

"My sense of self is strengthened – and I´ve become more and more caring (friendly, patient and permissive), also towards myself. It feels really good. Like the experience of finding peace and feeling eased now and then."
- Anneli Wiberg, Sweden
