MEET JOHANNA
“Welcome to NIDRISTA, my online sanctuary for rest. I’m a Stockholm-based writer, yoga nidrā teacher, and energy healer on a mission to normalise rest as a radical act of self-care and sustainability.
As a fierce believer in the healing power of deep rest, I turn to yoga nidrā as my go-to practice for everyday restoration and expansion. In that meditative state, a portal opens into the magical, mystical in-between that liberate me from the limitations of my everyday mind.
The guided yoga nidrā meditations I share usually include breath awareness, intention setting, body scans, and gentle visualisations. Each journey is crafted around a specific theme, with a range of lengths available across the library to meet you where you are.”
TESTIMONIAL
“Being guided by Johanna is deeply calming from the very first moment. Just her voice helps my entire system relax. Each yoga nidrā journey is exactly what I need, leaving me feeling clearer, softer, and recharged. It’s truly nourishing rest on every level.”
YOGA NIDRĀ
The practice of yoga nidrā guides you into deep, meditative rest and relaxation, moving awareness through body and mind to release tension, calm the nervous system, and access deeper states of consciousness.
While yoga nidrā translates to “yogic sleep”, it is not about falling asleep (unless sleep is your intention), but rather about entering an effortless state of being — a threshold between wakefulness and sleep.
It is Johanna’s belief that yoga nidrā caters to your unique needs — whether physical, mental, or emotional — allowing you to heal on multiple levels, restore vitality, awaken inspiration, integrate new experiences, and release what no longer serves you.
With regular practice you may notice:
a calmer nervous system
restored energy
improved sleep quality
greater mental clarity
a natural sense of creativity
a deepening intuition
space for emotional processing
support for digestion
easier integration of new experiences
an overall sense of well-being
