Discover a simple nightly ritual that transforms your rest — naturally.

Do you often lie awake at night, your mind racing with to-do lists, worries, or overthinking? You're not alone — millions struggle with falling (and staying) asleep. But what if you could change that in just 10 minutes a day?

Meditation: A Gentle Reset for Your Nervous System

When you meditate before bed, even for just 10 minutes, you're giving your nervous system permission to slow down. Think of it like pressing the "pause" button on your day. Meditation activates your parasympathetic nervous system — also known as the "rest and digest" state — helping your body transition from stress to stillness.

From Busy Brain to Deep Rest

Many people believe they can't meditate because they "can't stop thinking." But the goal isn't to have a blank mind — it's to guide your attention. Using focused breathwork or a guided audio meditation (like the ones in our Sleep Well collection), you gently move your mind away from stressful loops and toward a sense of safety and calm. This shift is exactly what your body needs to fall asleep faster and stay asleep longer.

The Science Backs It Up

Recent studies show that meditation increases melatonin production, reduces cortisol (stress hormone) levels, and enhances slow-wave sleep — the deepest and most restorative sleep phase. One study published in JAMA Internal Medicine found that participants who practiced mindfulness meditation had less insomnia, fatigue, and depression than those who didn’t.

You Don't Need to Be a Monk

All it takes is a quiet space, your breath, and the willingness to let go. You can start with just 10 minutes before bed — ideally after screens are off, lights are low, and you're already tucked in.
