NSDR encompasses hypnosis and yoga nidra as tools to deliberately access states of deep rest for improving sleep, reducing stress, and enhancing learning. These practices involve self-directing a state of calm through respiration and vision, as well as directing focus to something, rather than turning off thoughts completely. They can be effective in teaching individuals to induce a state of calm, allowing thoughts to become fragmented, and entering a relaxed state where the brain's control over space and time becomes fluid and not conscious.
