Yoga Nidra: One Wild and Precious Life
18-minute Guided Meditation by Dawn Cannon
You’ve arrived in a sacred moment—a soft pause in the rhythm of life.
This 18-minute guided Yoga Nidra meditation invites you to rest deeply, reconnect with your inner wisdom, and remember what truly matters. Inspired by Mary Oliver’s beloved poem The Summer Day, this journey leads you into a state of liminal awareness where the outer world quiets and your inner world opens wide.
You’ll be guided through gentle somatic cues, body awareness, and symbolic imagery—including a tender meeting with your younger self in a sunlit meadow. Along the way, you’ll plant a Sankalpa (heart-centered intention) and open to the mystery of your “one wild and precious life.”
Perfect for moments when you need grounding, reflection, or soulful rest. No experience with yoga or meditation is necessary—just a willingness to be still and receive.
