Middle Of The Night Waking | Easing Back Into Rest

If you’ve woken in the dark and your mind is starting to stir, this gentle guided meditation keeps you company as you settle back toward rest. In a soft, slow voice, you’re invited to leave the clock alone, feel the bed holding you, and let your breath lengthen. You’ll be guided to set worries and plans aside for later, imagine a warm, heavy blanket settling over you, and soften your body from your toes to your face. A quiet countdown is offered if you’d like something to follow, with plenty of space to simply rest. Made for the hours between midnight and morning. Suitable for lying down in bed. Not to be used while driving or operating machinery.
