Sleep Meditation to Calm Your Nervous Sy...

Sara and Les Raymond
About this episode

When your nervous system is wound up, in overdrive, or you feel stressed, this deep sleep meditation will help you prepare yourself for sleep by activating the parasympathetic nervous system and bringing you back to the rest and digest state. In this state, you can sleep deeply and give your body and mind the opportunity to heal and recover from the day. This immensely relaxing practice will send the signals of safety to your nervous system so you can easily drift to sleep with a calm and clear mind.

If you are feeling particularly wound up or have some excess energy, allow yourself some nourishing movement or self-massage such as this practice.
