Non-sleep deep rest (NSDR), also referred to as yoga nidra, is an effective practice supported by growing scientific evidence. Engaging in a short session of NSDR lasting 10 to 30 minutes, ideally after waking and before getting out of bed, can lead to significant feelings of restfulness. These sessions can be guided using available scripts, enhancing the experience. Research, including studies from Scandinavia, suggests that longer yoga nidra sessions can replenish dopamine stores in the basal ganglia, preparing the brain for both mental and physical activities. Furthermore, ongoing projects are investigating how NSDR may function similarly to sleep, underscoring its potential as a valuable tool for improving well-being.
