Meditation: Relax into Sleep with Bilateral Stimulation
from A Therapist Takes Her Own Advice · host Rebekah Shackney
Episode Title: Relax into Sleep with Bilateral StimulationWelcome to A Therapist Takes Her Own Advice. I’m Rebekah Shackney, and in this episode, I’m guiding you through a sleep meditation designed to gently activate your parasympathetic nervous system using slow bilateral stimulation—an approach that engages both sides of the brain to promote deep relaxation and rest.For best results, listen with headphones as you settle into bed. Many find this practice helps them ease into a calmer state and fall asleep more easily.Please Note: This meditation may not be suitable for those currently experiencing migraines, recent head trauma, or dissociative identity disorder, as it could potentially worsen symptoms. If you have any concerns, consult your healthcare provider before listening.💌 Connect with Me:🌿 Website: rebekahshackney.com🎙️ Instagram (podcast): @atherapisttakesherownadvice🎧 Listen on:• Pandora• Apple Podcasts • Or visit: rebekahshackney.com/podcastIf this episode resonates with you, I’d love to hear your thoughts.
