About this episode

When we feel triggered or overwhelmed, we can find stillness by bringing our attention to the senses. 

When you support the podcast for $4.99 a month, you'll have immediate access to the entire archive of over 350 sleepy episodes and get all the weekly stories & meditations a day earlier. By popular request, you can now listen to the stories, meditations and audiobook chapters all organized into their own separate, easy-to-use feeds. Even on Spotify. :). To join or learn more, visit https://listentosleep.supportingcast.fm

In my free newsletter, I send you a story every month about something I’ve learned living here on the mountain along with some tips to help you get a better night’s sleep and a little more peace during the day. When you join, you’ll also get a free sleepy audiobook and a relaxing 30 minute recording of the creek behind my cabin as a gift. Just go to https://www.listentosleep.com/blog/category/newsletter/

You can also leave a tip or buy a shareable audiobook of the longer books I read on Listen To Sleep Plus. It's a great way to support the podcast and get some extra bedtime stories without a monthly subscription. Each one is available to own for just $5.50 as a shareable mp3 that will play on any mp3 player. You can find them at https://www.listentosleep.com/store

Sleep well.💜
