Thank Ally for the invitation to restart the moon cycle from Module 1 - Module 4. That permission such felt so wonderful to me so I can deepen. Moon to Moon Training 2-2023. I am just loving the opportunity not to rush. I did do the modules but I feel I want to deepen and start over. How wonderful.

I loved the whispering of your voice... it was so effective for taking my nervous system down a few notches! Thank you!

So appreciated this on the new moon this month. Dark sky, vast self, the San Kalpa all around. Love love love

Blessings on this new moon ✨ May we all be brought from darkness to light & rest in the silent peace that's already here.

this was my afternoon pick me up! feel into a deep deep relaxation.

I just loved this, Ally. So beautifully poetic. Deeply restful even though I was sitting while experiencing the nidra. Next time, I'll lie down. EWYTT 4/18/23

Doing the march '23 moon to moon training. Really loved this one - the whispering is so so beautiful and effective. Love the idea of allowing my hearts desire to make itself known. Just be still and be present - it is all there❤

Namaste Ally, Practice finished on 21.07.2023 At 14:16 pm. You took me on quite a journey with this one. When the images began I suddenly dropped into a deep state of presence. I could sense the images. I am looking forward on learning more about placing images while guiding and I am very grateful to learn from you. May the sun shine upon you and the waves be with you.

I feel deeply connected to all that is. Such a beautiful, deep practice. March 21, 2023 4:38 pm

The whispering in this one is just so beautiful 😍

Such a powerful experience. Incredible guidance to bring the physical body to deep rest/stillness and the mind to spaciousness. I am so grateful. Namaste.

I forgot how amazing this one was Alllie. The whispers throughout are so beautiful. ❤️🙏

The new Moon is a symbol for our familly. We enjoy this moment to slow down our activities. And we follow all the moovement of the Moon to plant seeds, let them grow and transfert hem in the siol. During fall and winter we do the same thing with our projects, ideas and we making some research to be ready for the spring. The Moon is totally include in our lives.

Thanks Ally, loved it! I will sleep like a baby tonight!

I practiced this for today's new moon. I felt thoroughly relaxed even with the grief I am currently experiencing. I also felt the need to change my primary Sankalpa. The new one resonates more deeply and meaningful. Namaste

After an (overstimulating) day out in the city, this was the perfect way to sooth my nervous system. Thanks so much

Here from RYTT and loving taking this time to rest! Namaste 🙏🏼

I drifted after this one left me feeling so calm and deepened into relaxation. I really enjoyed this Nidra on Oct 13th in the evening.

This was such a nourishing practice Ally. I feel renewed right now as I bask in the sensations from this practice and the new moon energy. Namaste 🙏 3:05pm 01/23/2023

Moon to Moon YTT, I enjoyed this last night, and woke up with the Wise Old Owl still in my presence!

Grateful for you Ally and these Nidras!

Such a peaceful meditation to set a new moon intention. Namaste 🙏🏼

I loved, loved practicing this New Moon nidra this morning. Beautiful pacing and weaving of the whispering in throughout was unique and powerful. Thank you Ally!

Rest...and rest you will. I awake with a sense of calm and shift in my emotional state. Thank you Ally...I absolutely loved this one...it was exactly what was needed today. Namaste 🌸

I love you Ally- I practise with you nearly daily. I feel so grateful

This was wonderful. I nearly fell asleep a couple of times during the meditation and then did ultimately fall asleep at the very end. I had some really intense sensations and felt very deeply at rest. Thank you

Checking in for M2M RYTT. This was so peaceful and soothing. I did it before bed and had a wonderfully restorative sleep. Beautiful!

This practice felt so expansive , so profound. Finding refuge in the" fertile void". Yet again Ally skillfully guides us through the Pancha Koshas, the states of consciousness.Now I truly understand the Buddha's words....."a whole cosmos arises and passes away in this fathom long body. " Namaste!🙏

Absolutely wonderful. So peaceful. I love the whispered parts. I practice your Nidras daily and they have such a positive impact on my life. Thank you, namaste x

This is perfect for January 11, 2024. Magnificent. ❤❤❤

Simply wonderful to come back to this every new moon. I experienced very deep rest today. This was much needed. Great gratitude and blessings to you. Namaste. 🙏🕉🙏

Dear Ally, thank you so very much for your offering and guidance... so deeply soothing, healing... I really see how essential your meditations are to be wellbeing and to reminding me of my true nature beneath/beyond the noise of thoughts, emotions etc. Thank you! such a blessing :)

Namaste & thank you Ally! I did this lovely practice this morning realizing it was a new moon today (August 4th, 2024). Interesting story actually: I’ve been stuck indoors this wk end due to a sunburn I got Thursday. I was inspired to go in the ocean, I haven’t been fully immersed in it since I was a kid. I put my old bikini on because that’s all I have atm and wore a t-shirt over it and went in the wavy cold water at this ancient rocky site here in Sechelt, BC. I loved the water, it was hot out, but I overlooked wearing sunscreen and didn’t feel I was burning, the burn came on later. As it hurts too much to be clothed I’ve been at home in a tank & undie lathering myself in aloe & lavender; & while in pain had a cry about suffering, was upset at myself for not wearing sunscreen and also that I had healthy healing intentions of being in water, I was not going to harm myself, then only to get such a bad burn. My mind went into “why did this have to happen? I chose to witness the mind and not go down that train of thought and went into acceptance of what is, seeing my part in it, and extending compassion to myself, and also looking at what can I do still. Ironically when I had my bathing suit on & was driving around in it, I was thinking to myself how much I loved it in the heat & how I don’t like to wear pants 👖 then this wk end the Universe gave me the opportunity to hang out in my underwear lol. I was like “be careful what you ask for!” also being in my bathing suit for first time in ages brought back childhood memories. One in particular where I got a sunburn at a lake, just like the one I got now! So then I wondered did me remembering that somehow factor into my current situation? Was I supposed to go get sunscreen? Maybe that memory could’ve been helpful to me if that was the case. Anyhow, without sounding too woo woo, I’ve been introspective yet still doing what I can like cleaning, making healthy iced teas, cooking, doing gentle exercise/yoga, working on YN course, listening to music, to take my focus off the burn, to not feel a victim, but also to use the time constructively. I’ve been in a really challenging life transition. I just gave my resignation at my job, don’t know what/where next, plus other life challenges, and then felt inspired to go into the sea to cool off, relax, & energetically cleanse after a hard 2 wks, only to get one of the worst burns of my life. As said, I cried at the suffering of the sunburn, but also for what I’m experiencing in this phase despite my loving nature, positive intentions, actions, envisioning, practices etc I know I am cultivating strength, grit, perseverance, trust, faith, balance etc Yesterday, I stumbled upon a RU-vid astrology video speaking of this new moon. divine feminine, archetypes… during the wk of 8/8/2024(8) & another good video of an artist painting & sharing about it while speaking of meditation, reprogramming subconscious, creative process of not only art, but our lives/realities through going into the field in meditation (ultimate art), brainwave states … and it brought me back to YN, and Sankalpa. Lately, I feel called to go within, to detach from distractions, to focus, ground & balance and create in all kinds of ways. My Sankalpa involves living a creative life (not just artistically). I feel it to be a very mystical time of my life. I am single and left my family & friends in Edmonton for the job here on Sunshine Coast, BC. The job didn’t turn out to be as I hoped, unforeseen circumstances arose, but I definitely learned a lot & I’ve been literally stuck here, in this hermit mode/cocoon in the rainforest for almost 2 years! I believe it’s a dark night of soul. I hope I’m starting to move out of this isolated period, while recognizing how special it is. To add another challenging element, I’m leaving the job after being on medical leave with next to no $ nor another job lined up. It’s testing me on all levels. All that said, I found it fitting there was a new moon practice in my “additional YN practices for Module 2 of the teacher training this morning. I worked with my Sankalpa but also just allowed myself to be safely grounded in the void. There are fears that come up with awakening process. I keep trusting my path even if it is unclear or doesn’t make logical sense atm. Thanks for reading/listening! And thank you Ally for being a part of my process through the training & practices. Apologies if it was oversharing, but maybe the story will be helpful to others or interesting to read haha. Oh & I noticed I still have managed to keep my sense of humour through it all too! Namaste 🙏 One love 💚✨

❤ MTM training first module, such a deep sense of relaxation, thank you Ally

Thanks, Ally! What a gorgeous sense of vastness, merging with the stars 🙏

This is such a peaceful, beautiful meditation. Thank you so much for sharing this with the world...💜

A calming nidra practice to soothe an anxious mind last night. Thank you, Ally

Second time trying this one, I really noticed and appreciated the softness and periods of silence. Feeling very still snd content after ... thank you for this practice, Ally

522pm. After a day in bed not feeling very resourced, I journaled for a period to dump the mind, and then opened up my restorative course material and decided it was a good time to practice. Nidra felt more available to my system than asana at this time. A lot came up and at times it was difficult to be with but still grateful for this practice and fully trusting the difficult is all part of the process.

Good morning! I did this last night before bed, on this summer eclipse/new moon and it fired me up! thank you Ally, beautiful guidance as always

Ally, this was magical! I am practising this on the new moon and feeling so grateful that I started this journey with you in the teacher training. 🙏🏼 🌑✨

Again.....a favorite❤ thank you, Marieke module 3 🙏

Ally, this was incredible. I loved the breath practice at the beginning. It really helped me instantly settle in. I loved the whispers too. Thank you so much for this magical recording 🤍

Did this last night and fell into a deep sleep. Did it again this morning. Lovely as always. Thank you

So far, one of the best YN practices I had! I loved the whispering voice, the visualisations of the dark sky and the blanket of stars, the dark moon, the quietness of emptiness without any background sounds! Thank you Ally! 12 February at 18:00.

Namaste Ally, I am so grateful for your transmission! Wonderful experience.

Very relaxing! With my mind running so fast lately it help bring me back to a calm focusing state! Thank you! ♥️

Namaste 🙏🏻💖 I loved this new moon 🌚 nidra. So beautiful to experience empty and void of the darkness. So nourishing. Thank you Ally

I lay on my bed, eye mask on, blanket keeping me warm. I listened to the beginning, then next thing it's the end! I went in DEEP!

Practicing this the day before my first live online moon to moon ytt lesson, 🌑 loving reading the manual and can’t wait to connect with you tomorrow. Have done this video a few times in the past… lovely 😊 🙏 Namaste 💜

Thank you Ally . For a deeply nourishing Nidra🙏🏻

This was such a blessing of a practice to me today. Went in feeling heavy with grief for the recent loss of my brother. Came out feeling balanced and calm, peaceful again. Thank you 😀

Thank you Ally, this was so beautiful. I loved disappearing into the sky and the thought of the space between breaths.

Dark moon blessings Ally. Love the richness of this practice. Allowing gravity to drop our grip. Yes! Blessings and Namaste'. 🙌 Jess 8am

A perfect practice for this New Moon. Thank you. I will be coming back to this one for future New Moons.

🙏 3.3.22 March New Moon morning 💛 supportive guidance into settling, grounding, expansion, & rest

Hi Ally! I really enjoyed doing this, this afternoon. I think its one of the longest ones I've done. My arms and legs in particular felt really heavy, I loved connecting to my sankalpa and the imagery too. My favourite word that resonated today was 'cocoon', the safety of a cocoon, the withdrawal and darkness...but the hope of change and metamorphosis that comes from that stage too. Namaste 🙏

This was so lovely. I used it in bed before sleep...and woke up this morning :)

Namaste Ally, here Marieke module 2. I listened tonight, almost 🌑, to this recording❤. So powerful! 🙏

Namaste. Thank you for this New moon yoga nidra. Moon to Moon YTT🌻

Thank you for the deeply relaxing practice, Ally. I really noticed my temperature drop on this one as it progressed.

Thank you, Ally. Finally lined up this practice with the new moon. Beautifully spacious 🤍

This is really calming. I love this and I so needed this! Thank you so much for the new moon yoga nidra meditation!

Thank you Ally, I enjoyed practicing this in the southern hemisphere! Much love xx

This is my first moon to moon restorative YN having just joined the Moon to moon restorative yoga training, This was so gentle, ❤Carole module 7 Transformational sleep yoga from the UK

I love this yoga nidra for the new moon time! I've come back to this particular meditation several times. for Ithe love of how it makes me feel both afterward and during. i love the beginning guidance you offer particularly scanning the body in its dimension. In assigning volume and weight it became so natural to sink into that which holds me, supports me and begin the bodily trust of "being here, now," which then so much more easily I will put trust into inviting and allowing healthy guidance for my mind, Thank you Ally. (MtM)

Thanks Ally, I loved the poetic visualizations, the Vijnanamaya koshas, they're so beauttiful.

This was deeply restful. I felt the vast dark spaciousness. Love it! September 27, 10:21 am

Namaste Ally ❤️ I decided to do this at 6am 2 days after the May new moon. I found this nidra very relaxing, I loved the visual journey through the sky and the stars and taking time to connect in with the heart. It was a gentle way to bring myself into my day. 🙏💕
