Description:
The healing of both body and mind through yoga has gained widespread recognition as a globally acknowledged therapeutic science. Yoga-nidra, a self-therapy technique rooted in yoga and tantra, has emerged as an effective method for mind regulation. In this volume, Dr. Nrsimha Carana Panda, a prominent philosopher, psychologist, yogi, and tantrist, delves into the principles and practices of yoga-nidra, utilizing materials from the Tantras and Patanjali Yoga to explore its benefits, with a particular focus on modern medicine.

This book presents yoga-nidra as a scientific discipline that can enhance the body's immune system, prevent and cure diseases, and regulate life patterns. It offers an in-depth analysis of the theory behind yoga-nidra, incorporating the Indian perspective on mind and personality. By comparing hypnotic trance, yogic trance, and Freudian and Yoga-Vedanta psychologies, it establishes the psychological foundation for yoga-nidra.

The book also outlines the techniques of yoga-nidra, addressing its applications in treating psychosomatic diseases, drug addiction, stress-induced conditions, and other prevalent health issues. This comprehensive research is a valuable resource for scholars of ancient Indian medical science, psychology, and yoga. It is also highly accessible to general readers, providing a straightforward presentation and practical applications for non-experts.
