Guided Sleep Talkdown DEEP SLEEP for Busy Minds | Relaxing British Female Voice

Would you like to calm down your busy mind to be able to drift off into a deep sleep? This guided sleep talkdown deep sleep for busy minds meditation will help you relax your mind and body.

Sleep is essential for good physical and mental health. And recent studies have shown that a good night’s sleep can help reduce anxiety sensations the following day.

But of course, some people have sleep issues that cause frustration. So sleep then becomes associated with negative emotions. You might even go to bed with expectations that you’ll never be able to sleep. But trying too hard to make sleep happen often has the opposite effect.

Being able to shut off your racing mind is important when you can’t sleep. This talkdown will take you through steps to help you achieve this.

Here are some extra tips for better sleep:
• Everyone has individual sleep needs. Yes, it would be great to get 8 hours every night. But your hormones, age, whether you’re a night owl or early bird, whether you work shifts or going through emotional changes will all impact how much sleep you can get or need. So, there is no need to stress too much. Your body will get the rest it needs if you start placing more emphasis on relaxation.
• Take steps to reduce hyperarousal (too stimulated by day to slow down and rest at night), by creating a bedtime routine.
• Avoid caffeine after 12noon.
• Avoid alcohol before bedtime, as it is a sedative and will make you drowsy but not ready for deep restorative sleep.
• Write a thorough to-do list five minutes before bed.
• When you wake up spend time in the morning light and embrace the new day.
• Even on weekend’s go to bed and wake up at the same time every day.
• Exercise is important to reduce a busy mind, but don’t do cardiovascular exercise up to 2 hours before bedtime.
• Keep your bedroom at a cool temperature.
• If you take sleep medication and want to stop, DO NOT STOP taking medication abruptly. It is always safer to taper down the dose under medical supervision.

Sweet dreams!
