Dr. Norm Shealy recommends this CD to anyone who has not conquered the art of relaxation.

“My friend Julie Lusk sent me a few months ago her CD on Yoga Nidra along with the book on Yoga Nidra.  Needless to say, the book just convinced me how important the CD is!  I have personally done a variety of yogic exercises for many years and one of my favorite books is The Yoga Sutras of Patanjali, the foundation for Raja Yoga.

I have also done scores of relaxation exercises and my favorite for many years has been autogenic training, which is not only relaxing but self regulating.  I have hundreds of CD’s including guided imagery and a great deal of outstanding music.  Despite my experience, Julie’s Yoga Nidra provides the deepest relaxation I can imagine.  If you have not yet conquered the art of relaxation, I strongly recommend this CD ASAP!

“Yoga Nidra is Awesome”

Julie!  I have listened to Yoga Nidra twice this week and I looooooove it!

People need to get this CD.  There’s no time like now to make yourself feel better, right?

I’m recuperating from minor surgery – nothing serious at all – but it kept me housebound so I popped in Yoga Nidra and melted away into a wonderful place that I intend to revisit again and again.

Wow – what a stress buster and energizer.  People have got to do this – it’s an investment in your body, mind and soul.  I guess it’s close to an hour?  I don’t know – I just know it’s worth it.  We take time to do lots of other things in our lives that take an hour or longer so why not take the time to do something so very good for yourself.

Thank you so much for doing this CD.  You know I love all your CDs, but this one is definitely different.  Wow – I love it!

Just wanted you to know that you’ve got another winner in Yoga Nidra CD!

Luna Ray, Singer, Songwriter
“Today I did Yoga Nidra with Julie Lusk.  The whole thing is truly a beautiful, sweet and powerful creation of a CD.  I love the bija mantras!  What a gift to the world! Iwill use it, and share it as the callings comes.  THANK YOU!
