What it's about
Yoga Nidra, "psychic sleep", is a guided practice of deep relaxation in which the body rests while awareness is maintained. Federica Gazzano has held these evening sessions at Spazio Kailash for many years, once a month on a Friday, usually accompanied by live musicians. In the session on 20 November 2026 she accompanies the practice herself with Tibetan singing bowls.
Participants lie on the floor, warmly covered, and follow a guiding voice into deep relaxation, while the sounds of the bowls lead the journey inward. The organiser describes the practice as a way to rest the mind without sleeping, to observe one's emotions with some distance and to reduce stress. Sessions accompanied only by Federica with the bowls can, on request, also be followed online from home.
No experience is required. Participants should eat at least three hours beforehand, wear warm, comfortable clothing and bring a warm blanket. The session runs from 21:00 to 22:30 in Rivoli; the room holds only ten people. After phoning to check availability, a place is confirmed by a €10 deposit by bank transfer or Satispay, and the balance is paid at the start of the session. The deposit is not refunded for cancellations up to three days before.
