What happens when you combine a former Roman Catholic Sister, yoga nidra, rest and seventy-eight years of living? On today's Daring to Rest Podcast episode, you're going to meet Janet Fishmon and find out. Janet's been a member of our Rested community at Daring to Rest for a while, and has taken the Daring to Rest Facilitator Training.

In this episode, we explore:

  • The connection between yoga nidra and Roman Catholicism

  • The dream that led to her leaving her position as a Roman Catholic Sister

  • How yoga nidra made her a believer in the resurrection of the body and life ever-lasting

  • What qualities are so important to Janet that she'd give up happy

  • What rest is revealing to Janet at seventy-eight years old

  • Why she feels yoga nidra has been after her all her life

Be sure to listen until the absolute end of this episode - there's a short & sweet bonus audio from our conversation.
