No problem!
I'm an athlete so for most of my life I've been training but it wasn't until recently that I really began diving into optimizing my recovery and rest, and that's where I came across yoga nidra as a protocol for rest. Sleep is paramount for optimal recovery but sometimes we either don't get enough sleep or need more rest in addition to our sleep, which is where I've found yoga nidra fits right in.
So in comparison to yoga and tai chi, yoga nidra emphasizes complete rest and relaxation where the other two are more activity and movement oriented.
If you feel like you need more rest or relaxation I encourage you to give it a try! Super easy, just lie down, get comfortable, and let the instructor guide you!
That's amazing, and thanks for sharing your experience and the video. I think I get relaxed enough relaxation when meditating, what I need is my body to move in a more appropriate and different ways as I feel I'm loosing elasticity... more stretching!
