Meditation - Go Back To Sleep

This meditation is specifically designed for those moments when sleep is disrupted, whether by being startled awake or experiencing that unsettling rush of nighttime alertness. The guidance and original music work together to address the physical and mental aspects of sudden wakefulness – the racing thoughts, the adrenaline sensation, the stomach tension, or that unwanted feeling of hyper-awareness.
Using a combination of gentle grounding techniques and carefully composed ambient music, this meditation helps ease your system back into its natural sleep state. The voice guidance and soundscape are created by the same artist, ensuring a harmonious experience that smoothly transitions you from that unwanted alertness back to restful sleep. Particularly effective for those who experience sensitivity during early sleep stages or find themselves caught in that frustrating space between sleep and wakefulness.

Transcript

If something has awakened you,

You can go back to sleep.

Take a deep breath and release it.

Was there a sound or other disturbance that woke you?

Can you feel an unsettled or agitated feeling from it in your body,

Your chest or stomach?

Wherever you feel unsettled,

We will now release and relax so that you can slip back into slumber.

Take another deep breath and now we will release any unsettled energy to allow you to return to a relaxed place where you can drift back to sleep.

Allow the energy to come into the area of your body where you have experienced any unsettled feeling and let it begin to dissipate as the energy there dissipates and decreases.

Allow the energy to flow down past your stomach,

Continuing down through your legs.

Take another deep breath and release it.

Slip back into slumber,

Back into the deep,

Soft,

Velvety blankets of slumber,

Comforting and welcoming you.

Allow flowing energy to continue.

The energy is transformed.

Feel the restored comfort of slumber.

You deserve sleep and tranquility.

The music of this meditation will continue.
