Cosmic Sleep Through Sensing

This recording was designed to prepare your mind and body for deep sleep. It incorporates research on insomnia that investigated happy sensation (Yan et al, 2025) and sensory stimulus (Karuppathal, Kalpana & Srinivasan, 2021). Once 'sensing' is completed, there's time for ultimate relaxation in the universe.
