Rest That Begins Before You Close Your Eyes

di Sofia Lane (Autore)

epubli, 2026

Sleep isn't just physical exhaustion meeting a pillow. It requires surrender—a willingness to stop controlling, monitoring, or anticipating. For those whose nervous systems stay vigilant, whose minds refuse to quiet, or whose bodies hold tension even in stillness, sleep becomes elusive not because of poor hygiene but because rest itself feels unsafe or undeserved. This book explores why some people struggle to transition into sleep, examining the role of hypervigilance, unprocessed emotions, perfectionism about rest itself, and the ways a dysregulated nervous system interprets relaxation as threat rather than safety. It draws on sleep science and somatic practices to show how meditation for sleep isn't about forcing the mind blank but about creating conditions for the body to feel safe enough to let go. Rather than offering sleep hacks or breathing exercises as quick fixes, it examines what happens when rest requires internal permission—when the obstacle isn't technique but the belief that you haven't earned downtime, or that stopping means vulnerability, or that your worth depends on constant productivity. It explores the difference between collapsing from exhaustion and consciously choosing rest. For those who lie awake despite tiredness, whose minds race the moment they try to sleep, or who recognize their relationship with rest is tangled with guilt or control, this book offers insight into what makes deep rest possible when sleep feels like giving up rather than replenishment.
