About The Class and Yoga Nidra

This is the perfect way to let your worries go and relax your system! Plan on approximately 60-75 min.

We will begin our class with some centering, gentle movement, and conscious breath. All levels are welcome! We will then take a short break and set up for the practice of Yoga Nidra.

Yoga Nidra is Conscious Deep Relaxation, also known as Yogic Sleep. In this 30-minute guided savasana you will be led to the space between being awake and asleep. There you will quiet the mind, release the external body, relax the nervous system, and promote balance and peace in all aspects of your life. Yoga Nidra directly influences the physiology of the body and stimulates the healing process. One hour of Yoga Nidra is equivalent to three-four hours of restorative sleep!

Benefits include:

reduced stress
better sleep
higher productivity
reduced anxiety and depression, including PTSD
decreased pain
strengthened immune system
increased level of well-being
lower blood pressure
and more!

Grab some pillows and blankets and get ready to let the stress melt away! See you on Zoom soon!

About Your Instructor

Elizabeth Polito is a proud Buffalo native who recently returned home after living and working in New York City and Los Angeles. She holds a BA in Theatre and Dance, and has performed in musicals on Broadway, across the US, and across the globe. Her dance training made Yoga a natural fit, and she fell in love when she first encountered Yoga back in a college acting class. She was amazed at how dramatically her energy state shifted after asana and how quickly Yoga helped to calm her nerves before auditions or performances. The breath had the ability to change everything! 

Beth has been teaching for over a decade and is a 500 plus hour E-RYT trained in Hatha, Vinyasa, Yoga Nidra, Reconnective Yoga, and Yoga Trance Dance. In addition to teaching Yoga, Beth has an active Energy Healing practice and holds certifications in multiple modalities.

Beth's customized healing sessions repattern negative behaviors and beliefs, freeing you to align with what your heart truly wants to embody. Her unique methodology draws from over 20 years of experience in healing, dance, yoga, and energetics. Sessions are designed to facilitate personal healing and transformation at the quantum level.

She works with animals, individuals, and groups, and is especially proud of her work with those in transition, caretakers, as well as those facing terminal diagnosis and end of life concerns.
