Drops of Nectar Yoga Relaxation for Rejuvenation and Healing
One of the great pleasures of yoga is the relaxation session or shavasana traditionally offered at the end of a class. When taught skillfully, shavasana invokes the flow of energetic “nectar” down the spine to permeate the entire body with blissful energy. Now, with Drops of Nectar yoga practitioners can experience this rejuvenating dimension of yoga at home and at their convenience. Taught by acclaimed instructor Shiva Rea, this immersive two-CD program guides listeners through: Yoga Nidra, a relaxation method that works with 36 areas of the body, tension release through the five koshas (layers) of the body, a special meditation for healing areas of pain and blockage, Lunar Shavasana – an effective means to rest the sense organs and induce deep and restful sleep, and “Awakening the Lotus” chakra-based meditation, and more.

5 Stars Daily listening relaxation
I bought this CD for the yoga nidra track, and I’ve ended up loving both discs. Shiva Rea does a fantastic job with different ways to relax and calm down, including pranayama. I use this CD nearly every day, and it really helps for calming down for a good night’s sleep.
5 Stars very good
i love shiva rea’s work and this is a good cd for relaxation, yoga nidra and shavasana, good to use before going to sleep at night.
5 Stars Powerfully healing - a must for destressing yourself
This CD set is a must for anyone handling stress in their life. And who among us is not? There is only so much room in anyone’s budget for therapists, massages, etc. At some point we have to use our own devices to deal with stress on a regular daily basis, or succumb to the ills it causes.
Shiva Rea comes to the rescue with this jewel of a CD set. It has been adequately described, I’ll just add that the Chandra Namaskar (moon salutations) on Disc 1 are gentle and accessible to most people. There is a booklet included that describes the asanas (positions). Most of the material offered involves the motion of your mind rather than body. Light a candle, unplug the phone, make a nest with some blankets rolled under your knees and over you, and indulge in Disc 2 with its invocation, assortment of guided Savasanas, and healing Yoga Nidra. Then head straight to bed for a lovely night’s sleep without the aid of pharmaceuticals. Highly recommended.
5 Stars Amazing experience
I am amazed by the tranquility and relaxation I enjoyed after following the Yoga nidra instructions. Believe me, the background music, the soft voice of Shiva and the soothing instructions will put you in a totally relaxing mood and the entire body, mind and spirit gets rejuvenated. It is worth buying the CD for this track alone.
5 Stars extremely relaxing!
I’m new to whole world of yoga and decided to purchase this CD collection based on amazon reviews. I use this CD everyday for meditation and relaxation. Shiva Rea has a very soothing voice with beautiful music in the back ground to accompany her. If you are looking for a very well rounded collection, this is a good bet. Once again, I’m always so pleased with Amazon - they’re so helpful in making an informed decision on new purchases!
