Deep Sleep Meditation To Stop Overthinking

If your thoughts tend to spiral when you’re trying to sleep, this deep sleep meditation is designed to quiet the chatter and bring your mind back to calm. You’ll begin with slow, steady breathing and simple relaxation techniques to release tension from your body. As you settle, you’ll be guided through gentle imagery and a soothing mental focus that helps shift your attention away from overthinking and into peace.

With each breath and suggestion, your mind becomes quieter, your body heavier, and the cycle of busy thoughts begins to dissolve. By the end, you’ll feel deeply relaxed, safe, and free to drift into deep, restorative sleep without the weight of constant thinking.

Please make yourself comfortable and when you're ready to begin take a deep breath in and let it go now take another deep breath in and as you breathe out just allow your whole body to relax and on the next breath allow your eye to close and now become aware of your body notice if there's any tension anywhere try shrugging your shoulders letting them gently drop tense your legs roll your neck anywhere that's not loose just tense until your whole body feels loose loose and allow that feeling to continue and now I'd like you to imagine a line and on this line I'd like you to imagine the numbers 1 to 10 that is spaced out along that line and I want you to make the distance between number 2 and number 3 double the distance between 1 and 2 and the distance between 3 and 10 is twice the distance of the distance between 2 and 3 and so on and just imagine going along that line to 2 and 3 and the distances between each number get longer and longer and as you think about that line just imagine that in your mind you're sliding along the line and as each number passes you get more relaxed more at ease and you can just feel yourself sinking and just keep doing that as your breathing gets slower and as each number comes along it gives you more time to relax and when you reach the number 10 you can just allow yourself to drift down deeper and allow that feeling to just develop as you don't have to think you don't have to do anything all you have to do is enjoy that lovely feeling of deep deep relaxation and you can forget about everything just allow your mind to drift away and if any day-to-day thoughts come into your mind just stack them off to one side and deal with them later as they're not important nothing is important right now and each breath out is taking you deeper and deeper to visualize the deep blue sky and imagine on that sky that you see clouds forming the letter A and as the letter develops it soon drifts away just as clouds drift away just as you're drifting deeper into sleep and soon the clouds fall and then just imagine the letter B disappearing,

Drifting away,

Drifting away and now all the clouds the letter C and keep on thinking of the next letter as each previous letter floats away as you float deeper down into sleep as you feel yourself loosening relaxing getting more and more comfortable letting go and as each letter disappears you can become more at ease and you can continue visualizing the letters in your inner mind fading out getting even more relaxed feeling even more sleepy and you relax and more until it becomes too much trouble to think of the next letter as you can just relax completely allowing your mind to drift away where there's nothing to think about nothing to worry about peaceful allowing yourself to drift relax and sleep to drift relax and sleep allowing yourself to let go and sink deeper and deeper deeper into sweet slumber allowing yourself to drift relax and sleep deep restful sleep
