<p>Welcome back to the in-between state. This practice is in the structure taught and recommended by Uma Dinsmore-Tuli, whom is a constant reference point for me in the creation of healing, gentle yoga nidra practices. You can learn more about her here: https://www.yoganidranetwork.org/. </p>
<p><br /></p>
<p>This practice is intended to support healing and release the effects of stress on your bodymind. In it, we explore the Hamsa mantra, among other techniques. </p>
<p><br /></p>
<p>The word Hamsa translates to "swan" in Sanskrit, and in yoga, it also refers to the breath. The mantra's two syllables, ham and sa, represent the breath's in-breath and out-breath, as well as the life force's ascending and descending currents. The mantra is thought to open a doorway to the experience that that we are identical to the Absolute, or transcendental Self, and the great Life of the cosmos.
May this practice contribute to your life in a postive way.</p>
<p><br /></p>
<p>Much love,</p>
<p>Phoebe
