If you’re exhausted but your mind still won’t let you sleep, this ASMR session is for you.
Tonight, we’ll gently work with the anxiety that can keep the mind alert even when the body is tired. Through soft whispers, calming reassurance and psychologically informed guidance, the aim is not to force sleep, but to reduce the pressure around it — allowing your mind and body the opportunity to settle.
Research into insomnia suggests that worry, cognitive arousal and becoming increasingly preoccupied with sleep can all contribute to keeping us awake. Sometimes, trying harder to sleep simply gives the brain another problem to solve.
You don’t need to solve anything tonight. You don’t need to make yourself sleep. For now, you can simply listen.
I’m a Consultant Clinical Psychologist, and I create ASMR combining psychological understanding with relaxation, comfort and sleep support.
