One way to have better sleep and improve the restfulness of your sleep is to listen to a guided meditation. Before bed a guided meditation can help you fall asleep. Then, your brain already is in a dream state, so it is connected to the conscious mystery of your mind. By gaining self awareness in a guided meditation, learning about visualizations, your chakras, and spirituality, you’ll sleep better. Listen to a 20 minute guided meditation before you go to bed for vivid and colorful dreams. And, these dreams may even be more beautiful, romantic, vast including lifetimes, and soothing.
