In this gentle episode of the Mindfulness Exercises Podcast, host Sean Fargo offers a calming bedtime meditation designed to help you unwind and soften into rest. Rather than trying to fix, force, or change anything, Sean invites you to simply allow what’s here, resting in a space of kindness and care.
Whether you’re lying down for the night or taking a quiet moment to reset, this practice creates a natural shift into stillness and safety. With Sean’s steady guidance, you’ll discover that you don’t need to be “calm” in order to invite calmness. The meditation becomes an opportunity to breathe deeply, release the day, and return to yourself with gentleness.
This practice is perfect for those who struggle with racing thoughts at night, feel restless after a busy day, or simply want to end their evening with mindfulness and ease.
