Resumen del Editor

Jackie Cantwell, sound meditation practitioner, guides you to deliberately think about what's weighing on your mind for tomorrow, then release that tension through a series of inhales and exhales. 

Jackie Cantwell is the director of Medi Club and musician for The Big Quiet, a mass meditation movement that gathers thousands of people for large-scale moments of quiet around the world (including for Oprah’s 2020 Vision Tour with WW). It was founded by Jesse Israel, whose own experience with debilitating panic attacks forced him to step back from a successful career as a music executive to seek help. When he came upon meditation, it inspired him to switch gears in a big way. 

Guided by leading experts and personalities in wellness, sleep meditations are brief listens focused specifically on helping you decompress before bed. They don’t require any previous experience - they're easy to get into and designed to help you take a moment at day’s end to just relax.  

This title is part of The Audible Sleep Collection, exclusive audio experiences created to invite relaxation and sleep. New and free for members.

Start this about halfway through!

Narrator is abrupt, sounds bored and is too loud at the beginning... She gets better. It's almost as if she's going through the mediation herself and gets more relaxed and soothed (and quiets) as she goes! Personally not a fan of the ambient crystal bowls in this particular recording. They sound like distant fog horns.

Great way to fall asleep

I highly recommend this audio to anyone who has a difficult time falling asleep. My favorite part is the 2 minutes to think about your concerns. It’s amazing how many concerts you can think about in only 2minutes! Try it!

Sooooo relaxing!!

At first I was like, this will not work, and then... I was asleep! Excellent!

Sleeping Beauty

It works, I don't know how or when because I was in a DEEP sleep. Woke up refresh. I feel amazing.

Slow it down

This is a good meditation but the narrator’s voice starts off super choppy so it’s not soothing. I slowed it down to .8 and .9 and it improves her abrupt manner of closing her sentences

Puts me out every time

I downloaded this about this time last year. I've listened to it about 20 times easy when I am having a particularly hard time falling asleep. My daughter loves it as well, so who knows how much it has gotten played in the last year.

Her voice slowly gets softer and more spaced out as it goes. You only realized you're falling asleep when she speaks again and you kinda shoot awake for a second before being done in.

Enjoy.

Sound editing issues

I’ve been listening to this meditation to help relax before bed, and I have mostly enjoyed it. However, there are a few times during the meditation where the volume changes *drastically* from one phrase to the next. The sudden changes in volume can take me right out of my relaxed state, as I try to concentrate on the suddenly very quiet speaking voice.

It Worked

I did not expect to feel so relaxed and actually fall asleep - but I did. The tension left my body and I drifted off to sleep. Amazing!

Somehow Helps

Despite awkward wording and design, and average voicing, I am able to go off on my own mind tangent from its path and go to rest. Narrator/writer is a nascent dreamer of Bella Ruth Naperstak. 🌿💜🌿

The narrator ruined it for me

I had to turn it off due to the narrator's tone of voice. She sounded like she had better things to do than read the story.
