What you'll practise
- Set-Down Shelf — Place the day's thoughts one by one on a shelf beside the bed, where they wait until morning.
- Melting Scan — The body softens like warm wax, region by region, and pours into the bed.
- Velvet Stair — A soft, dark staircase counted slowly downward into held stillness.

1. Deep Sleep
A slow, unhurried wind-down from evening calm into deep delta stillness, fading into silence with no wake-up.
-
2. Unwinding
Set the day down on a shelf beside the bed, one thought at a time, until your hands and mind are empty.
-
3. The Melting Scan
Let the body melt like warm wax, from the feet up, while the sound rises and falls like a distant tide.
-
4. The Velvet Stair
A slow count down a soft, dark staircase into deep, held stillness, with the sound thinning step by step.
-
5. The Whole Night
A one-hour night program: shelf, melt and stair in the first quarter, then a long, dark delta tide that fades to silence.
About the sound
Each session layers soft tone pairs, one in each ear, over a gentle noise bed, with a voice guiding you. Research on binaural beats is mixed; we publish both sides.
