Meet Rachael, a dedicated yoga teacher from Ireland. Her yoga journey began while living in the UK, where she immersed herself in regular yin yoga classes at her local studio. Already passionate about meditation, Rachael was attending a Samatha meditation course at her local Buddhist meditation centre when she began noticing the profound connection between yoga and the deepening of her meditation practice. Driven by her love for Indian cuisine, a fascination with The Beatles, and a desire to explore yoga's roots, Rachael ventured to Rishikesh, India, the birthplace of yoga. There she spent two months studying yoga. First completing her yoga teacher training, studying Hatha, Ashtanga, Pranayama, meditation and yoga philosophy and then a second month working as a teaching assistant at her yoga school. Rachael is committed to preserving yoga's authenticity through teaching. In her sessions, you can expect mantras, guided meditations, pranayama, nuggets of philosophy and a sprinkle of Irish charm.
Description
Yin yoga is a quiet contemplative practice. It targets the deepest tissues of the body, our connective tissues – ligaments, joints, bones, the deep fascia networks of the body and the meridians.

Yoga nidra or yogic sleep in modern usage is a state of consciousness between waking and sleeping, typically induced by a guided meditation.
