How to Practice Sleep Meditation Method
1. Preparation:
- Choose a quiet space: Find a quiet place with little noise and light so you can focus and relax completely.
- Set a time: Choose a sleep meditation time that suits your needs. We recommends practicing sleep meditation for 10-60 minutes each time.
2. Sleep Meditation:
The essence of Sleep Meditation is short sleep:
- You can lie on your back or sit cross-legged on the floor or a chair. Make sure your posture is comfortable and not stiff.
- Gently close your eyes, allow your mind to be empty, and let yourself fall asleep within 10-60 minutes.
Optional: If you have trouble sleeping, try different methods to find the best way to support your sleep.
Here are two methods to help you if you have trouble sleeping:
- Close your eyes and imagine a completely black space in your head.
- Or you can listen to the sleep music.
3. Wake up slowly:
- Open your eyes slowly and move your body gently.
- Take a few minutes to feel relaxed and refreshed.
- Wash your face with water or a cold towel.
Note, some people find that using certain equipment can help them to focus and relax more deeply. Here are a few examples of equipment that you might find helpful:
- A comfortable chair or cushion: This can help you to maintain a comfortable position during your practice.
- A timer: This can help you to track the length of your practice.
- A sleep mask, headphones or earplugs: This can help to block out light, out noise, distractions and create a more conducive environment for sleep.
