Overthinking at Night — Guided Mindfulness to Quiet the Mind
Appointment Length
0 hour 30 minutes
Service Description
Do your nights feel like a battle with your own thoughts? Many people find that when the world finally gets quiet, the mind gets loud. Racing thoughts, replaying conversations, or worrying about tomorrow can make it hard to fall asleep—or stay asleep. This guided mindfulness session is designed to help you calm an overactive mind, release tension from the body, and create the inner stillness you need to rest deeply. Using simple, evidence-based techniques, you’ll learn to shift from mental overdrive into a state of peace and relaxation that supports natural sleep.

What to Expect
In each session, you’ll be guided through gentle practices that combine mindfulness, breathwork, and somatic awareness to calm your nervous system. You’ll learn simple techniques for grounding the body, slowing the breath, and redirecting intrusive thoughts. These practices are designed to be easy to follow—even if your mind feels restless—and can be integrated into your nightly routine. Sessions may also include guided journaling prompts or light self-massage to help release tension stored in the body.
Why Choose This Service
This offering goes beyond “sleep tips” by addressing the root cause of nighttime overthinking: a dysregulated nervous system that doesn’t know how to switch off. With training in trauma-informed care, mindfulness, and holistic approaches to anxiety, the guidance you receive is both compassionate and practical. You’ll not only experience relief during the session but also leave with skills you can continue using on your own, empowering you to create lasting change in how you sleep and how you feel.
