Relaxation with the iPhone or iPad! The yoga nidra relax app contains 6 guided audio exercises of different length and intensity, which guide you systematically and professionally into a state of deep relaxation. The exercises can be done at home, but also while sitting in the train, plane or office. No special knowledge or means are required for the practice. Give it a try, and you will see how nidra-relax helps you to go through life much more relaxed and capable to enjoy moment by moment. All the exercises are derived from the yoga nidra method and have been conceived and recorded by a professional yoga teacher. Yoga nidra is a relaxation and meditation method that encompasses all levels of the human being: it releases muscular tensions, as well as mental and emotional. Therefore yoga nidra can be used as an effective method in stress reduction. Yoga nidra is not a physical yoga practice that requires demanding poses. The only thing you have to do, is to lie down as comfortable as possible on your yoga mat, in the bed, (or while sitting in the train or plane) remain in stillness and follow the clear and simple instructions. Through the regular practice of yoga nidra the stress hormones are reduced, the regenerative body functions and the immune system are stimulated. It has been tested by physicians and scientist all over the world, who accredited it as an efficient support in the treatment of psychosomatic diseases. Mainly in afflictions such as sleep disturbances, nervousness, heart and stomach diseases, asthma and migraine Nidra-relax app has been recommended by the german magazine GEO Special Yoga: “An authentic deep relaxation as it is practiced in the classical yoga. With different levels. Nice and simple design and description of the effects. Recommended as an anti-stress meditation.” For german instructions please have a look at "Nidra Relax", the german version of this app. End User License Agreement and Privacy Police: https://www.ihanwel.net/nidra/eula.html and https://www.ihanwel.net/nidra/privacypolicy.html

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Alpha Studio at none against Yoga Nidra's 1. Yoga Nidra's advantage is update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 4 months). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
