  1. This practice is ideal pre-bed, to wind down on a day when you're feeling wired but tired. Hope you find it helpful, MP3 is available in the description if it's of interest. Thanks for your support! – Lucas @ YOGABODY

  2. This link was recommended by a friend. I love his voice guiding me through step by step to help me focus relaxing all my muscles. It's very comforting after a long day where I feel overtired and wound up at the same time. Thank you for this great relaxing meditation video.

  3. I have been doing this for weeks now since I found you on YouTube. When I wake in the middle of the night, it helps me go back to sleep quickly. Thank you for this.

  4. I have ADHD and sleeping is hard for me, I have a lot of energy and thoughts when its bed time. This video is helping me sleep better every night. This is my 3rd night using it

  5. Honestly I have been having really terrible sleep the last few months I do this before I go to bed every night and if I wake up during the night it does really help thank you so much.

  6. I’m so confused. I don’t know if I’m contracting my muscles right or wrong, I got a cramp in my left foot immediately, does this exercise help everyone. Like those whom are very out of shape who don’t stretch or do any type of exercises? And are over 50 years old?

  7. Tried very hard but unfortunately didn’t work for me … my muscles and still tensed .. i was annoyed when i was trying to focus on the ball while u were constantly talking shifting my concentration again and again

  8. I can't go to bed without practicing this muscle relaxing yoga nidra. It's been a game changer for me. Thank you, Sir. Ever since I've found you on Ted, I've been a huge fan.

  9. Thank you so much Lucas for this awesome, easy to follow video.

    With Duchenne muscular dystrophy I have chronically tight muscles and it’s often challenging to get them to relax. This along with your videos on the vagus nerve has helped greatly with relaxation and has aided my qigong practice 😊❤
