Easing An Anxious Mind For Sleep
With Eve LewisThis gentle 5-session mindfulness course is designed to gently ease anxiety and support more restful sleep. Across the series, you’ll be guided through focused attention, calming breathwork, body‑based relaxation, noting, and compassion practices that help settle a busy mind and signal safety to the nervous system at night. These practices are designed to be done before bed, during nighttime awakenings, or anytime your mind feels restless, and you can repeat them as many times as you need, so these tools become familiar, supportive companions rather than one‑off techniques. Eve gently guides you through each session with a kind and validating tone that is grounded in an understanding of how anxiety and self‑criticism affect sleep, helping you shift from striving and frustration toward softness, permission, and genuine rest so that you not only fall asleep but stay asleep and wake up feeling rested and refreshed.
