Sleep Meditation - Finding Protection From Anxieties

In tonight's Sleep Meditation with Karissa, we will learn to calm our anxieties so that our body and mind can get ready for some deep relaxation. We will slow our minds and quiet any obsessive thoughts so that we can breathe again. We will disrupt the cycle of anxiety and get the rest we deserve, rising tomorrow to see everything through fresh eyes.  First, we'll start with some relaxing insight from Karissa (00:00-04:46) Before tonight's Sleep Meditation (04:46-35:28) Being human comes with some unique characteristics that make our lives simultaneously thrilling and terrifying. Because we have an innate ability to conceive of the future in the abstract, we are able to plan and set goals and dream of endless possibilities. This can cause us a lot of anxiety. Anxiety can be a sign of your freedom and capacity to grow and thrive in your life. But, it does not aid sleep. So tonight, we will learn how to release anxiety, and drift into peaceful relaxation.  Join Sleep Wave Premium ✨ in just two taps!
