Brilliant. I never thought I can fit it any naps into my busy days. I found myself so much tired in the evenings. I knew I have to do SOMETHING. It was one of the I.T. challenges what brought this into my life. I am no longer tired in the evenings. THANK YOU 🦋 If I can mention. It was at day 26, I think. The island when you say, IT'S TIME TO REST. My body heard: It's time to wake up. 🤔

Wonderful voice. Could an AI voce be so perfect with the timing of the pauses though? So intriguing.

I finally found some time to try your longer meditation and it was awesone. I feel truly refreshed and I plan to include them into my schedule when time allows :)

Thank you for this meditation. As you guide very slowly with a slow and soothing warm voice, it’s really helping to fall back again to sleep.

Love this -I listen to it a lot . Your voice is very soothing and not annoying. Thank you. Three years later - I am editing my review ! This is still my favourite track on Insight Timer! I love your voice, the calming words and the relaxing music tapering off without words. I always fall asleep by the end. Thank you so much! Sheila

Deeply soothing! Your explanations were very helpful too. Understanding the effect of yoga nidra on the dopaminergic system made it even easier for me to let go. Thank you so much 🪷
