Notas del episodio

A slow, deliberate practice designed to walk your nervous system down from the speed of the day to the stillness of sleep. Not dramatic, gradual. Each phase is slightly slower than the last. By the end, most listeners are already drifting. Give yourself permission to not finish.

📚 Healing Education Library → Series 4: Release It — Session 23: "When Rest Feels Wrong" — if this practice is hard to stay present for, that session names exactly why rest feels unsafe for many high-functioning women.

📁 Resource Vault → RV-58: Sleep When Your Brain Won't Stop and RV-20: Building a Rest Practice That Actually Holds — together these guides build the longer system around what this audio starts.

🏃 Movement Library → Self-Compassion Exercises: A few minutes of very gentle Self-Compassion movement before bed, followed by this audio, creates a full wind-down sequence.
