Meditation and Sleep

Insomnia. Difficulty sleeping. Not sleeping enough. It comes up repeatedly in my practice. Let’s talk about sleep.

ABOUT THIS STORY

Meditation is simply a journey from activity into silence. You’re not creating silence - it is already, always present. You are simply tapping into the silence.

. 🧘🏾‍♀️Meditation and Sleep. 📿

 

🌟Meditation is a powerful way to discharge negative emotions, release stress and tap into inner peace.

 

Studies have shown practicing mediation for just a few minutes a day can dramatically improve symptoms of insomnia.

Ever had trouble letting go of thoughts as you try to fall asleep? Meditation can solve this for you.

🌌Meditation is simply a journey from activity into silence. You’re not creating silence – it is already, always present. You are simply tapping into the silence.

⭐️If you’re new to meditation and want to try it, use these tips: .

 

👉🏽Sit comfortably.

👉🏽Set a soft timer for 5 minutes.

👉🏽Close your eyes.

👉🏽Just notice your breath for those few minutes.
