Reclaim the art of peaceful, rejuvenating sleep by nurturing the bond with your Inner Child – with Taoist monk and teacher, David James Lees.

⚠️ PLEASE DO NOT LISTEN TO THIS MEDITATION WHILST DRIVING OR OPERATING MACHINERY

Embark on a transformative meditation journey that will help you shift your perspective on sleep. Rather than simply viewing sleep as a physical act, let's explore the deeper, more meaningful connection between our inner selves and our Inner Child's vital role in achieving a blissful, restorative slumber. This is not just about finding ways to relax and drift off; it's about unearthing the root causes of sleep disturbances and fostering a harmonious relationship between our authentic spiritual self (the Shen) and the Inner Child within.

This meditation can be practised daily or whenever you need it.
