NA'ALEH YOGA: Yoga Nidra Journeys for Deep Rest

Close Your Eyes and Stay Awake...

In this episode we spend time with Moish Feiglin, an integrative psychotherapist, breathwork guide, and musician who founded Echo Healing. Moish shares his personal path from traditional social work to somatic, trauma-informed breathwork, including how his experiences led him to blend psychotherapy, breath practices, music, nature, and community for deep healing.

We explore the role of music in guided sessions as well as the similarities and differences between breathwork and yoga nidra and when each may be most useful.

The episode covers safety and contraindications and how breathwork can be adapted to meet individual needs. Moish emphasizes trauma-informed group adaptations and the importance of attunement so powerful experiences are followed by adequate support. We also delve in the role of community and support in integrating peak experiences into daily life.

"Seek the sacred within the ordinary, the remarkable within the commonplace"-- Rav Nachman of Bresslov

This guided Yoga Nidra practice is designed to help you process and integrate your journey experience within your body, mind, and daily life. Here you will be guided into gentle re-entry from travel or inner exploration into grounded daily life, inviting compassionate attention and deep rest.

NA'ALEH YOGA: Yoga Nidra Journeys for Deep Rest

Close Your Eyes and Stay Awake...

In this episode, I am delighted to chat with Shaina Hammer, a birth doula and licensed clinical social worker, about what it really means to prepare for birth and postpartum in a way that supports your nervous system, mental health, and optimizes your rest.

We explore how practices like yoga nidra, meditation, hypnobirthing and self-care can help you feel more grounded during pregnancy, support early labor, and ease the transition into postpartum. Shaina shares thoughtful insights from both the therapy room and the birth space, including how postpartum depression can go unnoticed, how birth trauma can be gently healed, and why having compassionate, nonjudgmental support can make such a difference.

Whether you’re pregnant, newly postpartum, supporting a loved one, or working in the birth or mental health world, this episode offers grounded wisdom, practical tools, and a sense of being deeply understood.

Shaina's bio:

Shaina is a birth doula and mental health professional, who works with women through a deeply holistic, mind–body approach to birth and motherhood. She teaches conscious and mindfulness-based birthing classes that draw from hypnobirthing, meditation, and somatic awareness, helping parents prepare for birth as a full human experience—mentally, emotionally, and physically. Her work emphasizes how the mind plays a powerful and specific role in birth, and how awareness, intention, and presence can shape the experience. In addition to birth preparation, she supports mothers after birth through a variety of healing modalities, including compassionate care for those processing birth trauma, creating space for integration, grounding, and restoration in the postpartum period.
