Soul Sleep – Advanced Yoga Nidra Training

35H Advanced Yoga Nidra Training
A Journey into Embodied Spirituality
Zurich | 15–18 January 2026 & 13–16 August 2026

Soul Sleep: where the practice dissolves, and pure being begins.

A Deeper Journey into Yoga Nidra

You already know Yoga Nidra. You have rested in the space between thoughts. Now another journey begins — finer, deeper, quieter.

This training is not a repetition of techniques. It is an invitation to refine perception, to embody presence, and to meet the most subtle layers of your being. At a certain point, it is no longer the technique that holds space — but your presence. This immersion supports you in teaching from the inner field: not from memory, but from embodied experience.

 

Why this training is different

This advanced training is a portal — a living experiential space for remembrance and transcendence. Across four days, we follow the thread of what already lives within you: wisdom that rests beneath the surface, carried in the body, waiting to be seen.

I will walk beside you with steadiness, depth, and an open heart — holding space for your own light to emerge.

 

This training is for you if…

You wish to deepen into your soul aspects and awaken subtle wisdom.

You want t accompany others into profound rest and transformation.

You long to move beyond guiding techniques, and instead transmit presence itself.

What you will receive

  • Spirituality in daily life – weaving presence into the ordinarySankalpa & shadow work – uncovering unconscious layers
  • Subtle perception – resonance, vibration & Nada Yoga
  • Intuitive sequencing – creating Yoga Nidra journeys spontaneously
  • Beyond technique – exploring turiya and the unmanifest
  • The art of silence – words with impact, pauses with depth
  • Sacred textsYoga Tarawali, Mandukya Upanishad, Tibetan Book of the Dead
  • Trauma-informed approach – self-regulation and Polyvagal theory

 

The Focus of this Training

We journey into the most subtle koshas:

  • Vijnanamaya Kosha — the sheath of wisdom
  • Anandamaya Kosha — the sheath of bliss

These subtle layers open the doorway into deep meditative states where self-healing, release, and profound inner satisfaction naturally unfold.

Through practices such as shadow work, ancestral connection, and the study of sacred texts, you will strengthen your understanding of Yoga Nidra, consciousness, and bliss — transforming inner wisdom into embodied teaching.

We will also explore the “8 Stages of Dissolution” from Vajrayana Buddhism, a map of transformation between all thresholds of existence (life–death, sleep–wakefulness, being–becoming).

                "I really enjoyed the training. It was a great mix of theory, practice, and application. You can tell that a lot of love and passion went into the training. Even though it was only two weekends, I find it fascinating that the Yoga Nidra practice triggered a process in me. Above all, I realized that I find it very difficult to do nothing at all, so I was particularly inspired by the fact that I have now found a tool in Yoga Nidra to practice this. I incorporated this into my travels and, for example, practiced it every day when we arrived at our destination during our 8-day trek. I also found the scientific background and the direct experience of the transformative power very exciting. And the script is also great."

                – Sarah, 2023

                “Bring more Nidra to the Earth, don’t be afraid to combine all your knowledge and create new ways. You are a true Master.”

                – Marina, 2025

                "I really enjoyed the training. We were a lovely little group who shared a lot in a short space of time. I hope we can find a date for part 2. Yoga Nidra is so multi-layered and creative, and everything changes as soon as you let calmness into your everyday life. I feel like I've come one step closer to my true nature."
