My classes are going very well. I can’t believe how deeply rested individuals become. My friend had a Fitbit on during the class that said she slept for 1 hour and 9 minutes. She did not go to sleep\, but her vital signs (blood pressure\, heart rate and respiratory rate) slowed down to make the application think she was sleeping! Barbara – Online Gong Yoga Nidra graduate \n\n\n  \n  \nThank you for a fantastic Gong Nidra Course\, I loved it! So powerful. I watched the replays as I’m in Australia. I’m now holding weekly Gong Nidra sessions! — Kohra
