Questions

What is a sleep meditation?

A sleep meditation is a gentle, guided way to settle the mind at the end of the day so that sleep can arrive on its own — less a technique to perform than a way to stop holding the day.

Why can I not switch my mind off at night?

Usually because the day never properly ended — it just stopped. A short wind-down practice gives the mind a clear edge between the day and sleep, which is often all it needs.
