Body Scan Before Sleep
Quiet Mind, Calm Body~
Many times, our body connects with our mind. When our body relaxes, it helps our mind to calm down, helps activate our parasympathetic system, and assists us to transit to sleep easier.
This Audio comes from UCLA Meditation Center, and we can use it before we fall asleep or after we wake up in the middle of the night.
