Answer

Well I don’t know what you are looking forward to have in your life and what kind of resolves you are making in your Yog Nidra. But when I say to fulfill something in Yog Nidra, it has nothing to do with things or outer external achievements.

Actually if you do Yog Nidra correctly, you already attain a deep sense of peace, integration, aliveness, attentiveness and awareness. These are the real things, which you really need to live your life. Everything else is subservient and secondary to them.

If you are looking for say, health or enlightenment or Samadhi and you ask ,“ how many sessions would I need?” The expression, “how many” simply shows your intolerance and impatience, and in this state of mind I think you would need many-many-many Yog Nidras before you finally achieve what ever you wish for. As you haven’t written what you really need so I can’t say much about that aspect but as such the resolve should be one and that one resolve should be strengthened repeatedly every day. You should not keep changing your resolve.
