Hi there! I heard from a neurobiologist that YN is one of a # of things you can do to help increase baseline dopamine so I found your videos about a year ago & practice every day. I have ADHD & have days where the YN doesn't 'take' because my mind is racing so much I can't focus. However, I find that if I listen to 40hz binaural beats when I work, it helps me focus. I was wondering if you might be able to do a 20 or 30min YN with 40hz binaural beats in it, just to see if that works? That would be amazing. Namaste. 🙏🏼
I have been listening to your Yoga Nidra recordings for 8 months now several times a day. I love the imagery and readings you include in this one. I am a viola player and find this world of Yoga Nidra resounds with the inner life I have nurtured over the years immersed in music. Thank you for all you are doing to deepen my soul and inspire so many.
After a long and stressful week, I left the city today and drove out into nature. I drew strength there from my connection to the elements - the air around me, the earth beneath me, the water flowing next to me and the fire of the sun warming my skin from above. Now, after returning home, I found this beautiful practice from you, which helped me release all remaining stress and welcome the elements once more. Thank you, this really helped me start my weekend by grounding myself again.
I have been going through a health crisis of IBS for a year , which has caused extreme anxiety and insomnia. I do a session of your yoga nidra of 45 ot 50 minutes daily and it helps a lot. I also use the ones of Kristin Rose. You two do the best sessions as far as I am concerned. Your voices are very soothing, which really helps the practice. Thanks for being here and offering this !
I went through my own bout of IBS and thankfully through treatment it has gotten better. The biggest difference has been working on mindfulness, slowing down, not letting stressful activities take me out of balance, lots of prayer and meditation. Of course supplements and diet can help but working on that at least got rid of the worst aspects. Good luck and god bless
@@HealwithceleryjuiceAbsolutely love Anthony William, have all his books he's amazing and the only one I truly believe in what he says, I can't recommend him highly enough. Have an amazing day ❤️
Thank you Ally for this wonderful video. I’ve come to associate the sound and cadence of your voice with deep relaxation. So much so, I look forward to laying down once a day (at least) to release my thoughts and physical pain. Time to just listen, as you gently guide my body and mind into a safe space, where I feel comfortable. I can actually drop my shoulders and stop clenching my teeth long enough for my nervous system to find some stability. It’s a gift 💝 ministering to all our souls. Thank you. 🙏 🌻
I’ve been doing your videos for almost a year now and have found them to benefit me greatly in my recovery journey. This practice was interesting, I felt resistance in the mantra to offer compassion to others. I was flooded with memories and thoughts of the people who have wronged me or mistreated me in the recent past. As a result, it was difficult to fully relax into it. I am so thankful for the spiritual benefit of these videos, as they help me to uncover what still needs healing inside of me. Thank you for what you do. I feel my words are inadequate to try and explain to you what a difference you’re making in my life, and in the world. You are a vessel of healing ❤️🩹
I ❤and WELCOME the voices of the LIVING BEINGS we are privileged to witness if only in recording. I would absolutely die without my non human earth 🌍 family. Interdependence, people. Namaste to everything not just Homo sapiens. Om shanti shanti shanti.
Totally agree- you say it perfectly- loving our non human beings is so essential- ask sentient beings and this gorgeous earth and stars and sky and moon and sun- they all matter- none of us greater or lesser- om ah hung❤💕🌍☀️✨🪷
Oh the retreat sounds magnificent ❤. Thank you Ally, what you give to this world with sharing your yoga nidra is such a blessing it brings me to tears with gratitude 💚💫🙏
@@tigerlilly3727 thank you. I’ve got a fair while ahead of me in recovery, lots of setbacks (“crashes”) as I’m sure you know about. Good healing to you too 🌈
Namaste, Ally. I will return many times to this treasure. I enjoyed the nature sounds. Many thanks for the calming connection and healing opportunities x
Absolutely wonderful ! I loved all the jungle sounds in the background that for me blended beautifully with Ally’s soft voice. This was a powerful yoga nidra , so deep and very healing ! Thank you so much Ally 🙏🙏🙏
Ally, I love that you incorporated compassion into this meditation. It would be wonderful to have a meditation that focuses on compassion and forgiveness, including self forgiveness. I really believe many people would benefit from it. Please consider it! Thanks so much for everything you do. 💕💕

These are one of those moments when the whole vessel is feeling overwhelmed emotionally, spiritually, physically and stumbling across this couldn’t have timed it any other way, thank you for looking out for us
This was so deeply calming and my body feels so much ease, rest, and nourishment after this practice. I feel like I'm currently just in a little cloud of peace. Thank you.
Loved this beautiful practice and the calling in of the elements. The retreat sounds divine, I lived for several years in Chile and it is truly a magical place 💖
This was one of my favorites of yours, Ally. The last few lines of that Divine Ocean much larger than yourself allowed me to enter a deep state of rest. I connected it with the vastness of space. I loved the repetition and variations of the imagery.
Amazing YN practice as always!❤ I am lucky to be practicing deepening of my BE-ing with both your yoga nidra teacher training and Alberto Vilĺoldo's shamanic training ( both currently online). I am from South Africa, but hope that by 2025, I will be able to do an in-person retreat/training. ❤❤❤
Thank you very much. This was a calming and cleansing experience. The focus on the elements give me new insights: the benefit of air for example and the balance between earth and air. The retreat sounds wonderfull and the sounds of the rainforest. It sounds like a magical place. 💚🙏💙
Thank you so much, Ally 🙏 I loved the harnessing of the elements and the rotation of imagery. It felt especially healing to combine earth and air today. 🫶😊
Hello Ally. Just a Words to thank You soooo much for all the vidéos. It’s a great help… and a deep renewal for mind and body among the turmioil of Life. Listening and following You from France . Marie-Laurence
Thank you for helping me to experience the beauty I did not know existed. Asking us to see the animals and plants of the earth elements was powerful for me I felt like a was home. Thank you Ally
Yes, sometimes I don’t have control over what happens in the background sounds, particularly when I am recording in the jungle. This one has a lot of toucans and they are very high pitched. I always strive to have a good variety of background sounds because different sounds work for different nervous systems and some people need “voice only” - I have always done meticulous meta data for each recording so that these different options should be easy to find. If you use the UA-cam search function with my name and “rain sounds” it should find those videos for you. Examples - “Ally Boothroyd Voice Only” “Ally Boothroyd Rain Sounds” “Ally Boothroyd Binaural Beats” “Ally Boothroyd Bird Song” “Ally Boothroyd Ocean Waves” “Ally Boothroyd Rainforest Sounds” etc
Saaaaame I'm sure it's a more rare thing but the background sounds are too distracting for me in this one. It actually sounds more like a squirrel to me
Luckily Ally offers us a little of everything. The videos with tuneless New Age chord progressions don’t work so well for me, but I love all the videos with nature sounds of any kind.
that was lovely. having recently completed two of your equilibrium meditations i found it much easier to simultaneously imagine the heaviness of earth and lightness of air at the same time. I enjoyed all the imagery visualization and wonder what specifci purpose that serves in yoga nidra. looking forward to tomorrows zoom.. Steve M
A while ago I listened a few times to one called yoga nidra for deep relaxation. In it Ally talked about rebellious rest. It had a background of ocean sounds and was 4 months old at the time. Now I can’t find it. Can anybody help? I really loved that one.
Ally, I love your videos but I have ME and like many others, have sound sensitivity. The bird/ monkey sounds make it impossible to listen to many of your videos. Would it be possible to record some with soft music 🎶 areas? I really like your voice and your practice otherwise. ❤

I would really love to do this practice, as I’m trying to heal from severe long Covid, but I can’t handle the sound of the birds on top of the voice. 😢 I love voice only recordings or those with very low and soft music.

I always feel lighter and clearer after listening to one of your recordings. You’ve helped get me through a very emotional breakup in the last few months. I do have a question about purchasing the recordings. It says “download this file here,” but I can never find the exact recording when I get to your shop. I’ve downloaded a few, but I really want the ones I’ve listened to, like this one! How do I find them? Thank you so much!
Most times I create the file for the store and send it to my husband after I create the UA-cam file, so depending on his schedule, sometimes the exact link isn't there until a few days to a week later. But also, if you buy the files, you can request to be on the mailing list, we email out about once a month sharing all the newest releases from the store! 💜 This one will be out soon I hope!

Thank you. ALLY. Sadly, I cannot listen to this-it's very challenging to hear your beautiful words and voice with the birds in the foreground. ❤
Yes, sometimes I don’t have control over what happens in the background sounds, particularly when I am recording in the jungle. This one has a lot of toucans and they are very high pitched. I always strive to have a good variety of background sounds because different sounds work for different nervous systems and some people need “voice only” - I have always done meticulous meta data for each recording so that these different options should be easy to find. If you use the UA-cam search function with my name and “rain sounds” it should find those videos for you. Examples - “Ally Boothroyd Voice Only” “Ally Boothroyd Rain Sounds” “Ally Boothroyd Binaural Beats” “Ally Boothroyd Bird Song” “Ally Boothroyd Ocean Waves” “Ally Boothroyd Rainforest Sounds” etc
The bird sounds aren’t my thing. Maybe because that’s my alarm sound.
Saaaaame I'm sure it's a more rare thing but the background sounds are too distracting for me in this one. It actually sounds more like a squirrel to me
Yeah I prefer no background sounds also. Get too distracted otherwise
Personally I prefer the jungle noises in the background
I like wave sounds/ rain or sound bath but this is too disruptive for me too makes me jump😅

But also, if you buy the files, you can request to be on the mailing list, we email out about once a month sharing all the newest releases from the store! 💜 This one will be out soon I hope!
