Bonus episode: Yoga Nidra for Softening the Overwhelm
This bonus episode is an invitation to stop. To lie down. To receive.
Brooke recently completed a Yoga Nidra teacher training and is weaving this practice more deeply into her work as a Midlife Midwife — here's your first taste.
In this special conversation, Brooke guides you through a yoga nidra practice for softening the overwhelm. You'll be invited to rest while a poem by Mark Nepo invites you off the wheel of approval-seeking. Through a full body scan, breath work, and gentle imagery, you'll soften your grip and remember who you are beneath all of your roles.
All you have to do is press play, and then DO NOTHING for a little while.
What You'll Learn:
What Yoga Nidra is and why it's one of the most direct routes back to the inner well
How to prepare your body and space to receive the practice
Why receiving is harder than it sounds — and how to soften into it anyway
How to hold the part of you that seeks approval alongside the part who rests in her own truth
What it means to be a "C-minus student" and why that's exactly enough
Why the qualities you're seeking — ease, peace, contentment — were always already inside you
Seed to Carry:
"Let yourself be ready and not ready at the same time."
