😴 Do you find yourself lying in bed, exhausted… yet unable to fully let go? You’re not alone.

So many of us carry the tension of the day, or even the weight of years, into the night. Our bodies may be tired, but our nervous systems haven’t yet gotten the message that it’s safe to rest.

🌙 This soothing somatic sleep meditation is here to help.

Designed to gently calm your nervous system and guide your body into a deeper state of regulation, this practice supports rest from the inside out. Through breath, soft inner attunement, and a gentle body scan, we’ll begin to send a powerful signal to your system:

🫶 You’re safe now. You can let go. There’s nothing you need to do.

💤 You can’t force good sleep. But when you give your body what it needs - support, regulation, and nervous system calm - deep rest begins to emerge on its own.

✨ That’s what this Somatic Sleep Meditation for Deep Rest & Nervous System Calm is here to offer.

Something That’s Really Helped My Sleep 😴

I’ve been using a small handheld device called The Chill Pill for the past six months, and it’s made a noticeable difference in my sleep. You just hold it in your hand, and it sends soft electrical pulses into your palm that help calm your nervous system. It’s subtle, but so effective - especially when your body feels wired but tired.

If your system struggles to settle at night (or you just want a gentle way to support your regulation), I really recommend it.
