NIDRISTA offers parasympathetic pleasure that unveils purpose, potential, and truth. Paving a new path — one of comfort, ease, and peace.
OM Shanti Shanti Shanti.
OM Shanti Shanti Shanti is a Vedic mantra invoking peace for the physical world, mind, and spirit.
THE FOUNDER
Johanna Andersson is a Stockholm-based yoga teacher and energy healer on a mission to restore rest in a world addicted to doing. Blending traditional yogic practices with her own intuitive gifts, she aims to facilitate deep, profound rest through nurturing sessions, retreats, writings, and recordings — saving the world one well-rested human being at a time.
A Cancer sun and mother of two, her greatest purpose and joy is to nurture and guide individuals and groups back home to themselves. She’s a devoted advocate of nidrā shakti (the power of sleep and rest), fiercely committed to normalising rest as a radical act of self-care and sustainability, and firmly believes that the well-rested human can truly achieve anything.
After spending well over a decade in the fast-paced fashion industry as a stylist, editor, and copywriter — while battling stress and anxiety — she’s experienced firsthand the toll of exhaustion. Now, in her resting era, she’s determined to unveil the illusions of modern life, wielding rest as a gateway to truth and transformation.
