Durango, CO is situated on the ancestral land and territory of the Nuuchiu (Ute) people, who were forcibly removed by the United States Government.

Yoga Nidre is a guided meditation practice to deepen the body/mind to quiet into a meditative state, not asleep, but deeply relaxed, accessing the dreams & feelings that may be floating in the unconscious mind.

Thank you for listening!
This meditation accompanies the series 'hands, bellies, and bones' I've been hosting on inherited trauma, or to serve as a tool to delve into trauma work for those who couldn't make the classes!
Where there is trauma and disconnection, there is also always wisdom, and untapped gifts. This meditation explores the hands as being tied to work, talent, purpose, burden, love, care, and dreaming & creation.
We can build better worlds together in our healing work!
This is my first time using Anchor to record a meditation episode. Your listening means a lot. Thank you for bearing with my lack of technical skill to make this as melodious and palatable as it could be. I'll be working on that in the future! Please share your feedback and your insights with me. Love, Debbie
