Что важно понять
A gentle evening routine for moving from activity toward rest.
Meditation before sleep can be a way to lower the pace of the day, but it is not a task to perform correctly in order to sleep. Treat it as a gentle quiet period rather than a technique that must force relaxation.
Как практиковать
Lower the lights, sit or lie comfortably, and attend to breath or sound for ten minutes. When the timer ends, place the phone away from the bed and move toward rest.
Начните с малого, выберите подходящий темп и позвольте себе вернуться завтра.
- Выберите короткое время, например пять минут.
- Замедляйтесь, когда нужно, и замечайте происходящее.
- Завершите ударом колокола или одним осознанным вдохом.
Полезное напоминание
If focusing on breath makes you feel more awake, listen to a soft sound or scan body sensations instead.

What if I only have a little time today?
Use the smallest possible version, even if it is only one minute. Keeping a small appointment with yourself is often more useful than waiting for a perfect window.
Do I need to do it perfectly?
