Surrender to stillness. Yoga Nidra: where rest meets renewal.

In the midst of modern life, especially for women navigating midlife and menopause, true rest is more than a luxury. It’s essential. At our Yin Yoga studio in Solihull, we see it time and time again: women searching for calm, balance, and connection. One practice we return to again and again is Yoga Nidra for menopause, a powerful meditation technique that brings the body into deep rest and the mind into quiet clarity.


🌙 What Is Yoga Nidra?

Yoga Nidra, often called “yogic sleep,” is a deeply restorative meditation that you practice lying down. It's especially supportive for women in perimenopause and menopause, as it helps regulate the nervous system, reduce anxiety, and promote restful sleep.


Unlike traditional seated meditation, Yoga Nidra gently guides you through breath awareness, body scans, and visualisations, bringing the body into stillness while the mind floats between wakefulness and sleep. It’s gentle, accessible, and can be practised by anyone, no experience or flexibility required.


✨ Why Women in Midlife Love Yoga Nidra for menopause

Many of the women who attend our weekly Yin Yoga classes in Solihull or join us on our UK yoga retreats tell us they feel overwhelmed, restless, or disconnected from themselves. Yoga Nidra offers something rare and sacred:

  • Relief from menopause-related stress and sleep issues

  • Gentle support for anxiety, mood swings, and fatigue

  • A safe space to surrender and simply be

  • A spiritual practice that nurtures inner peace


Whether you're navigating hormonal shifts or just craving a reset, Yoga for menopause doesn't have to be complicated. It can start with a soft mat, a blanket, and a voice guiding you inward.
