16. A Sleep Meditation for Pregnancy
In this episode of The Breath & Birth Co. Podcast, we invite you to unwind with a gentle guided sleep meditation designed specifically for pregnancy. 🌙✨
As an expectant mother/birther, your body is constantly changing, and finding deep rest can sometimes feel out of reach. This meditation will help you:
💛 Release tension from head to toe
💛 Connect with your breath to calm your nervous system
💛 Create a peaceful space for both you and your baby
💛 Drift into deep, restful sleep
Find a comfortable position, close your eyes, and allow yourself to surrender into relaxation. You are safe, supported, and deeply loved.
