Description
Can't switch your mind off at night? This gentle guided sleep meditation is for overthinking, racing thoughts and night-time worry: for the nights when you turn off the light and your mind turns the volume up.
Together we'll:
🌙 learn why the mind gets louder at night, and why that isn't a sign anything is wrong with you
📦 put each worry on the "worry shelf", safe until morning
🍃 picture simple, gentle things, so your mind has something soft to rest on
✨ sit by a still lake under the stars, letting thoughts drift away like leaves
💤 count down from ten into deep, heavy rest
The final section repeats gently so you can drift off without being woken. Please don't listen while driving or operating machinery.
