85. Yoga Nidra: New Moon Manifestation

🌑 Yoga Nidra: New Moon Manifestation 🌙 This 35-minute Yoga Nidra invites you into the quiet, fertile energy of the New Moon — a time of beginnings, intention, and inner listening. Through a guided body scan, heart-centered awareness, and gentle breathwork, you are led into a space of deep stillness where your sankalpa can take root and begin to unfold naturally. This practice supports intention setting, trust, and alignment with your inner rhythm. The final 25 minutes include soft ambient music, allowing you to rest deeply or drift into sleep within the calm of the new moon night. A beautiful meditation for new moon rituals, planting seeds of intention, nervous system reset, and deep, restorative rest. 🌿 Thank you for joining me on The Blooming Spirit Podcast.If this meditation nourished you, please consider leaving a 5-star review—your support helps this work reach more hearts and bring more calm into the world. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 ✨ Explore more offerings at ⁠⁠bloomingspiritjourneys.com⁠⁠ [https://www.bloomingspiritjourneys.com/]—including yoga & meditation sessions, women’s ceremonies, and sacred products to support your journey. 🎧 Follow me on ⁠⁠Insight Timer⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ [https://insighttimer.com/bloomingspirit/] for premium meditation courses and free LIVE online meditations. 🌸 For personal support, I offer ⁠⁠1:1 private sessions ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ [https://www.bloomingspiritjourneys.com/1-1-sessions]to help you deepen your practice and connect with your inner rhythm. 💖 Feeling grateful?

84. The Quiet Strength of Saying No: A Reflection on Boundaries & Self-Respect

Setting boundaries isn’t always graceful. Sometimes it feels messy. Sometimes your voice shakes. And sometimes… you’re left sitting in the emotional aftermath, wondering if you did the right thing. In this episode, I share a personal reflection on what it really means to hold a boundary—especially when it goes against old patterns of staying quiet, keeping the peace, or putting others first. Through the lens of yoga philosophy, we explore: Ahimsa (non-violence toward self) Satya (truth) Svadhyaya (self-study) and the deeper teaching of acting from your dharma—even when it feels uncomfortable This is not a perfect practice. It’s a lived one. The episode gently weaves into a short guided reflection to help you reconnect with your body, process what may be arising, and return to a place of quiet strength within yourself. If you’re navigating boundaries, relationships, or learning to choose yourself in a new way… this space is for you. 🌿 Thank you for joining me on The Blooming Spirit Podcast.If this meditation nourished you, please consider leaving a 5-star review—your support helps this work reach more hearts and bring more calm into the world. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 ✨ Explore more offerings at ⁠⁠⁠bloomingspiritjourneys.com⁠⁠⁠ [https://www.bloomingspiritjourneys.com/]—including yoga & meditation sessions, women’s ceremonies, and sacred products to support your journey. 🎧 Follow me on ⁠⁠⁠Insight Timer⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ [https://insighttimer.com/bloomingspirit/] for premium meditation courses and free LIVE online meditations. 🌸 For personal support, I offer ⁠⁠⁠1:1 private sessions ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ [https://www.bloomingspiritjourneys.com/1-1-sessions]to help you deepen your practice and connect with your inner rhythm. 💖 Feeling grateful?

A deeply restorative Yoga Nidra journey through the five koshas, the layers of your being—from the physical body to the subtle body of bliss.
