Instant downloadable PDF
A 30-day, do-able Yoga Nidra habit designed for ME/CFS & Long Covid—done lying down, headphones in, zero hustle.
Science-backed calm: gentle guided sessions that help shift you out of fight-or-flight so rest actually restores you.
Brain-fog-friendly: daily prompts, QR codes, and one-click audio links (7–31 minutes).
Curated by a board-certified (AADP) health coach who’s lived this illness and studied the science.
Yoga Nidra increases parasympathetic (rest-and-digest) activity, helping downshift a revved nervous system.
Regular practice is associated with lower perceived stress, better sleep quality, and calmer reactivity (the nervous system stops acting like a car alarm at 3 a.m.).
For ME/CFS & Long Covid, it’s low-demand recovery time: lying down, eyes closed, minimal sensory input—aka energy-smart.
Quick-start guide: how to set up your “Nidra nest,” timing, and Do-Not-Disturb phone setup.
30-day schedule with QR codes + clickable links to curated, free Yoga Nidra audios (7–31 min).
Pick-your-energy options: super-short on crash days, longer on steadier days.
Reflection prompt to capture what actually helped.
Works with free Insight Timer audios—no extra purchases required.
Pick a time you can repeat (e.g., 1:30 p.m. post-lunch).
Build your Nidra nest: pillow under knees, blanket, eye mask; phone on DND.
Press play. Lie down. If you fall asleep, that’s still a win—your body took what it needed.
✔️ You want rest that counts, not just more lying there feeling wired-tired.
✔️You need structure without pressure and options on crash days.
✔️ You prefer no-woo, practical guidance that respects your limits.
❌ You’re looking for a miracle cure or a push-through protocol.
❌ You want intense breathwork, heat, or stimulation. (This is the opposite.)
From wired & exhausted → calmer baseline and fewer “why won’t my brain shut off” nights.
From rest that doesn’t work → rest that restores (because your system can finally stand down).
From guessing → a simple daily rhythm you can keep—even when you’re low.

I’m in a crash—can I still do it? Yes. Choose a 7–15 minute track, fully reclined, lights low, eyes covered.
Is this yoga-yoga? No poses. It’s guided rest—flat on your back, cozy as you like.
Will this cure me? No. It’s a support tool that helps your system calm so other recovery steps land better.
