– Hey there and welcome to
this meditation for sleep. First I'd like to invite
you to get comfortable in a position that's restful, relaxed, and cozy. And take a nice, slow, deep breath in, deeper than you've taken all day so far, and as you do, gently let your eyes close. And as you exhale, feel all
of the air leave your body. Taking another deep breath, even deeper than the one before it, and at the top of the breath, see if you can notice the
stillness that exists there. And exhaling it out. At the bottom of the breath, see if you can notice the
stillness there as well. Keep breathing this way, noticing this natural
stillness that exists at the top and the bottom of your breath. Allowing it to ground you
into the present moment. And using it to begin
to still your energy. Giving yourself permission, right now, to let go of everything
else you were consumed with before we started. There's no where else you need to be. There is nothing else
you need to be doing. Give your mind permission, right now, to wind down and rest. Continue to take slow, deep breaths. And as you do, feel the
journey of your breath through your entire body. Breathing in and out of
every muscle and every cell, from the top of your head, all the way down to the tips of your toes. Noticing any places where we may be holding stress or anxiety. Noticing any areas that might be sore or tight. And begin to breath into them. Unfurrow your brow, unclench your jaw, open your palms. Noticing any other places in your body where you still
may be holding tension, and breathing into and allow
that breath to release it, and giving that tension
permission to let go. And now return your breath to it's normal rhythm and pattern, but keep your focus on it, allowing it to be your
anchor as you fall asleep. Now we're going to set an intention for the kind of sleep we want. Often we lay in bed worried
about not getting enough sleep or not getting good sleep, but what we focus on, expands. So to put it another way, the more we focus on something, the more we experience it. So we're going to avoid
focusing on what we don't want, and instead, in this moment, I invite you to set a positive intention for the kind of sleep that you do want. A sleep that's peaceful, restful, deep, and relaxing. Really allow that intention
to settle in for you now. And allow those feelings of
restfulness, peace, relaxation, and ease to come up for you right now. And just sit with them. And as we move into the
silent part of the meditation, call to mind a few things
that happened today, or in the recent past
that you're grateful for. Perhaps it's as simple as
being grateful for your health, your safety, your willingness to take
this time of self care. Take your time with each one and really give yourself the gift of sitting with that gratitude
and pleasant feeling. Allowing it to gently
ease you closer to sleep. Sweet dreams.

i'm BEGGING anyone who's even slightly lost in life to read Manifest the Unseen by Luna Rivers. i'm not kidding when i say it cracked me open in the best way. i'm crying and healing and evolving all at once ❤
always love your videos
Honestly, it breaks my heart how Manifest the Unseen by Luna Rivers isn’t getting the attention it deserves. This book changed me. People need to wake up to this.
tmr is my exam and this really helped me, god bless your soul💕🌷
Terrible background music, grating
No ads this time. I’d like a little chime though. I did this before my bedtime shower after work before sleep.
Used to love this meditation. Will never watch again because of all these ads. What’s a shame and disgrace
Weird music in the BG
Is it juat me when someone walks in your room when your meditating and when thay leve itbwont work any more like my grandpa walk in my room and now i cant sleep 😭😭
Ps its 5am and i have to go do Aaron's. All day how will i survive
It was all going so well, until a woman popped up trying to sell me shampoo! If you must have adverts, can they not be at the start? It does make the experience rather pointless when they're shoved right in the middle
Dude thank you so much
There’s something magical about the silence in guided meditation. It speaks louder than words.
Planet Ayurveda’s GUD NITE SLEEP is crafted for individuals with disturbed or poor sleep patterns.
Thank you for creating a safe, quiet space in this noisy world.❤
This disrupted my sleep instead. What a shame
And instead of relaxing, stress came in.
I can't believe that add comes in the middle of meditation. What's the point to give this meditation in you tube . Much irritating
The moment you get indulged into the meditation there will be an add that will destroy the experience. Worst experience
A lot of asmr channels are able to make it so there’s ads at the beginning of the vid instead of randomly in the middle I don’t know the steps but that would definitely make it more pleasant
That pop-up as is savage. Ruined the experience.
Is it okay to cry during meditation?
were the ads before and during really necessary..
Thanks for jolting me awake with an ad.
Amen❤
guys there's fucking ads in this
Thumbs down for the ad. What a way to ruin your meditation. So messed up.
The sounds are so loud
Too hard 4:47 To find so annoying
