As a short review from the beginning of the training: hypnosis aims at a state of focused attention and heightened suggestibility (often guided by a therapist); in Yoga Nidra we are a) aiming to obtain a state of unfocused/ passively attentive state over the course of the practice and b) we are not aiming to target specific thought patterns/ behaviour through suggestion (as is pursued in hypnosis). 00:27:25 Mohamed El Dakkak: Reacted to "As a short review fr..." with 👍 00:28:13 Evelyne Hertrich: Replying to "I'm a bit confused r..." 👍 00:29:44 Olga Kay (she/her): seems like a useful concept for movement too 00:34:39 Mohamed El Dakkak: shouldn't the sankalpa be mentioned in the beginning to start the practice with the intention of whatever we want to achieve through this practice? 00:35:16 Esther Scheen: Are vasana and samskaras always negative? 00:35:28 Esther Scheen: I suppose you could also have positive 00:47:42 Olga Kay (she/her): I wonder if the hypoarousal is often 00:47:51 Olga Kay (she/her): disconnected I mean! 01:00:19 heathergagnon: So, the items OUTSIDE of the circle could be part of the Yoga Nidra practice for athletes? 01:00:35 Mohamed El Dakkak: there would be a bit of overlap between hypnosis & nidra while we work on affirmation statements and imagery correct? 01:01:07 Yoga Medicine Teachers: Yes I would say so Mohamed 01:01:23 Mohamed El Dakkak: Reacted to "Yes I would say so M..." with 👍 01:01:30 Yoga Medicine Teachers: Yes absolutely Heather 01:07:30 Eva Wilhelm: Hi Caroline, for sure you or i can share my "Orientation Phase" Input. 01:08:47 Katja Bartsch: @ Mohamed et al.: Reg. suggestive qualities of imagery: But also remember the teaching considerations we talked about in the technique section (see top of page 40 in manual): we do want to be aware of (and avoid) posthypnotic suggestion and therefore aim to include indirect suggestions they can choose from, so they can adopt a choice themselves (vs. “putting a suggestion on them”) 01:10:14 Katja Bartsch: Replying to "So, the items OUTSID..." For example, yes - they are things they are already familiar with; we don’t need to limit ourselves to these, but we could include them for sure 01:18:17 Evelyne Hertrich: Question maybe for next time. how would you advice if we want to do our own nidra session for us ? 01:18:36 Erin Ipjian: let them know how long it will be, since they are time crunched often 01:18:38 maya odeh: to mention comfortable poses and maybe an eye mask 01:18:42 Yoga Medicine Teachers: I love this question Evelyne 🙂 And will answer later 01:18:45 Esther Scheen: Whatever is comfortable for them 01:18:47 Ann Arens: Props for supporting their bodies 01:18:52 Erin Ipjian: be open to different set ups in case traveling etc 01:18:54 Daniela Vesela: That they can move/leave the room 01:19:01 iPad lily: Maybe not supine but propped up 01:19:21 Esther Scheen: Relaxation, just be, no pressure, nothing to do 01:19:24 rebecca podlipec: No expectations just being in the moment 01:19:28 Mohamed El Dakkak: telling them what to expect from that practice, maybe help them embody their next win 01:19:37 Yoga Medicine Teachers: Way to go Team!
