Gifts of the New Year Yoga Nidra 2026 Meditation Audio Recording
Recorded Live at Expand Yoga & Wellness, Jan 4, 2026, during the New Year, New You, One Day Mini Yoga & Meditation Retreat, hosted by Jana Olenio and Melissa Shubha Abbott (myself).
Welcome to Our Gifts of the New Year: Yoga Nidra Meditation and Sound Bath. Settled yourself in a quiet space, perhaps with headphones, for a deep experience and blissful journey to awaken, renew, recharge, and reset your intentions for the New Year 2026.
Letting Go and Setting Intentions
The start of a new year often brings reflections on what we want to release. Yoga Nidra, often referred to as “yogic sleep,” provides a profound space for deep relaxation and introspection. As you listen, allow yourself to let go of any burdens or limiting beliefs that no longer serve you.
Tuning Into Our Authentic Essence
Through guided meditation, you will connect with your inner self and discover the boundless energy that resides within. This practice encourages you to set intentions rooted in authenticity, aligning with your true desires and values.
The Power of Sound
As we transition into the Sound Bath, immerse yourself in the healing vibrations of the instruments. The sounds will wash over you, facilitating a deeper release and allowing your mind to quiet. This sonic experience enhances your journey inward, making space for clarity and insight.
Recognizing the True Self
By the end of our session, you will have cultivated a sense of peace and awareness that transcends everyday distractions. Embracing your true self is a powerful act of self-love, and we hope this experience will inspire you to carry this energy into the year ahead.
Join us as we embark on this transformative journey together. May this new year be filled with growth, joy, and a deeper connection to your authentic self.
As we step into a new year, many of us feel the call to let go of the past and embrace fresh beginnings. This period is not just about resolutions; it’s an opportunity to tune into our authentic essence, creating space for transformation and renewal.
In this audio recording, we invite you on a journey through the soothing practices of Yoga Nidra and a Sound Bath. Let’s explore how these experiences can help us transcend the limitations of our minds, guiding us to recognize our true selves.
In this longer 45-minute yoga nidra session, we recognize and receive 5 Gifts of the New Year during a journey into a winter forest. These are not ordinary gifts, but gifts to guide your intentions in the coming year.
