It’s a powerful tool for stress relief, emotional healing, burnout recovery, and improving focus. Regular practice supports better sleep, reduces anxiety, and builds resilience against daily stress. As you follow this guided meditation, you’ll give your body permission to let go, your mind a chance to clear, and your nervous system the opportunity to reset — so you can return to your day or drift into sleep feeling grounded, calm, and renewed.
