Reclaiming the Beloved

For the one who longs for intimacy but has learned that desire is not safe.

About this recording:
This practice is for anyone whose relationship to sexuality, desire, or being fully seen has been shaped by harm, coercion, or boundaries that were not respected — who longs to move through intimacy with fluidity and ease, but finds the body closing, the throat tightening, the mind getting busy the moment that longing gets close. It works with the protective parts that learned, wisely, to stay concealed — honoring everything they have protected, and distinguishing the desire that once brought harm from the desire that is your nature: reverent, unhurried, the first sacred movement of consciousness toward life. In Tantra, desire is icchā śakti, the very force by which the formless takes form. This Yoga Nidrā offers the body a chance to feel that, slowly, in its own time, with nothing demanded and nothing taken.

Testimonial:

"That nidrā has a wisdom of its own — allowing me to hear the pieces I needed in the exact order I needed them. The words I wrote down afterward were renewal, remembrance, tears of recognition waiting to fall. If it were a book, I imagine it would be one whose cover gets faded and worn from use."

— Bethany

This recording was originally created for one person. It is offered here because what one person carries, many people carry. If you are looking for a practice built entirely around your own particular contraction, a personal Yoga Nidrā can be made for you.
