Write your awesome label here.
You know the feeling. You're exhausted but can't sleep. You're overwhelmed but can't explain why. Your emotions arrive without warning and leave without resolution. You react in ways that surprise even you - and then spend the evening trying to make sense of it.
Meditation helps. Sort of. But the kind where you're supposed to clear your mind? Your mind doesn't cooperate. The effort of staying focused becomes its own source of stress.
Yoga nidra is different. You lie down, close your eyes, and let a guided voice do the work. Your brain drops into a state between waking and sleep - the state where the nervous system heals, where emotion becomes information instead of noise, and where the layers you've been too busy to examine finally become accessible.
Colynn Vosburgh spent ten years as an Emergency Room nurse before she left medicine for yoga. Not because she burned out - because she found something that worked better. In an ER, she saw firsthand what years of unprocessed stress, disconnection from the body, and suppressed emotion do to a person. In yoga nidra, she found the practice that addresses it at the source.
This course is built on the kosha framework — the ancient yogic map of the five layers of your being. Physical body. Energy body. Mental body. Wisdom body. Bliss body. Each module explores one layer through a guided yoga nidra meditation, followed by journaling to integrate what you discover. It's not
philosophy. It's a structured path through your own inner landscape - one layer at a time.
By the end of the course, you'll have moved through every layer of yourself. You'll understand why certain emotions live in certain places in your body. You'll have tools for working with the mental patterns and limiting beliefs that the mind body holds. You'll have touched the wisdom body - the place where you already know what you need. And you'll have rested in something deeper than all of it.
This isn't teacher training. It isn't a certification program. It's a course built entirely for you - the person who wants to understand themselves more deeply and finally have a practice that makes that possible.
Who This Is For
The person who is tired of not understanding themselves
You feel things deeply — sometimes too deeply. Emotions arrive without explanation and stay too long. You
want to understand what's underneath: the patterns, the stored tension, the beliefs you didn't choose.
This course gives you a structured way in - not through analysis, but through direct experience.
The meditator who can't quite quiet the mind
You've tried conventional meditation. Sitting still, watching thoughts, trying not to think - it becomes its own kind of effort. Yoga nidra requires nothing. You lie down and follow a voice. Your nervous system
does the rest. This course is where meditation finally becomes accessible.
The high-functioning person running on empty
You've been managing. Meeting the demands, holding it together, keeping the pace. But something has gone
quiet inside - the connection to what you actually feel, need, and want. Colynn's approach reconnects you to yourself without requiring you to fall apart first.
A map, not a mystery
The five koshas give you a framework for what you're experiencing - physical sensation, energy and breath, thought and emotion, inner knowing, and deep rest. Each module works one layer specifically, so the course builds into something complete rather than staying abstract.
Yoga nidra plus journaling - the practice that sticks
Every session pairs a guided yoga nidra meditation with journaling prompts to capture what surfaces. The meditation opens you. The journaling integrates what you find. This combination is what turns a
relaxation practice into genuine self-knowledge.
Built by someone who left medicine for this
Colynn Vosburgh spent a decade as an Emergency Room nurse before leaving to teach yoga full-time. She isn't drawn to yoga nidra because it sounds peaceful. She's drawn to it because she's seen - clinically - what it addresses. Her approach is grounded, clear, and built for people living real lives.

Frequently asked questions
What is yoga nidra, and is it the same as meditation?
Yoga nidra is a guided practice of conscious rest - you lie down and follow a voice while your brain enters the state between waking and sleep. Unlike traditional meditation, there's no effort to focus or clear the mind. The practice does the work. You show up, lie down, and let it happen. Many people who find sitting meditation difficult find yoga nidra immediately accessible.
Do I need any yoga experience?
None. You don't move, you don't need flexibility, and you don't need any background in yoga or meditation. The only requirement is the ability to lie down comfortably and follow a guided voice. The kosha framework is explained clearly in the course — you don't need to know anything about it coming in.
What are the koshas, and why does the course use them?
The koshas are the five layers of being described in yogic philosophy: physical body, energy body, mental/emotional body, wisdom body, and bliss body. They function as a map - a structured way to work through different dimensions of your experience rather than approaching yourself as one undifferentiated whole. The course uses them because they work. Each layer holds something different, and moving through them in sequence creates a complete inner journey rather than a series of unrelated practices.
Is this a subscription?
No. $119 is a one-time payment with lifetime access. Return to the Manomaya module when you're working through a difficult mental pattern. Revisit Anandamaya when you need to rest in something deeper. The practice is yours - at your pace, as many times as you need it.
You already have everything you're looking for. This course is how you find it.
