About this episode

This episode features a body scan meditation designed to promote deep, restful sleep through progressive muscle relaxation.

This body scan sleep meditation uses progressive relaxation to gently release tension from head to toe, quiet the mind, and prepare your body for deep, restful sleep. As you slowly bring your attention to each part of your body, you’ll let go of physical tension and settle into a state of calm, making it easier to fall asleep naturally. Listen each night as you settle into bed and allow your body to become heavier, softer, and more relaxed. With regular practice, this soothing sleep meditation can become a simple part of your nighttime routine—helping you unwind, fall asleep more easily, and enjoy deeper, more restorative rest.
