“In this world of instant gratification pursuits with no clear healing results, Yoga Nidra comes to mind as an excellent way to create balance in this fast moving society! Soraya has been able to guide me to take the path to heal my mind of this constant chatter, even in my darkest moments. This practice of Yoga Nidra has brought me calmness and inner peace. Not only does Soraya bring a great coping mechanism that does not involve a quick reward but a slow, realistic, safe and grounding feeling of being at ease and content with one's individuality and journey. Soraya has the gift with her calming voice and vast knowledge to bring you to a point of contemplation with an open mind. I have found that Yoga Nidra brings an acceptance of my limitations with grace, being in the present and happy with who I am. This experience provides a quite mind that is able to accomplish more with ease and a profound sense of well being and focus. As Ralph Waldo Emerson said, “Adopt the pace of nature: her secret is patience.” Yoga Nidra opens the door to learn how to have more compassion and patience with the self and others”
