Yoga Nidra is traditionally referred to as "yogic sleep" – a state of consciousness in which the body is at complete rest while the mind remains clear and alert. Our Yoga Nidra series is inspired by traditional essences associated with this practice, intentionally combining the tradition of ancient aromatic rituals with the demands of modern practice. It gently accompanies your inward journey by creating a safe atmosphere that naturally facilitates letting go.
At its core is a combination of sacred Palo Santo wood and Somali myrrh that guide you to inner clarity. The warmth of balsamic sandalwood provides a grounding resonance, anchoring a restless mind in the present moment. Vetiver signals to the senses that it is time for complete relaxation. With their linalyl acetate content, clary sage and true lavender form a synergistic duo to gently support the release of inner tension.
Supported by aromatherapy, breathing becomes a noticeably more intense and liberating experience. Specially developed to support the fluid transition from the hustle and bustle of everyday life to inner contemplation, our multi-layered composition acts like a subtle filter for the senses. Its complex fragrance profile helps you gently let the analytical mind fade into the background while effortlessly immersing yourself in the meditative state between waking and sleeping – the essence of yoga Nidra.
Also known as "holy wood," wild Palo Santo has been used for centuries in South American ceremonies to clear the world's heavy energy. Its essential oil blends harmoniously with the spicy-resinous, subtly sweet aroma of wild-harvested Somali myrrh and the creamy-warm notes of the deadwood of the wild-growing Australian sandalwood tree. Vetiver oil provides a deep, earthy finish; this oil has been obtained via gentle steam distillation from organic cultivation in Madagascar, whose coastal climate gives the deep-rooted grass its characteristic aroma.
The creamy and balsamic oil of the wild-growing Amazonian copaiba tree, obtained by fractional distillation, acts as a natural fixative in this blend. It forms a protective base under the notes of the herbaceous-floral clary sage from the French Drôme Provençale and the floral-fresh true lavender from the sunny heart of Spain – both carefully obtained from certified organic cultivation. This creation is rounded off by a high-quality tonka absolute from Brazil, which envelops the senses with its sweet vanilla fragrance and creates an atmosphere of deep security.
