Let Peace Come to You... Fall Asleep to Zen Stories & Buddhist Teachings for the Overthinking Mind

Tonight we explore what happens when we stop trying so hard to be calm. Peace can easily turn into one more thing to achieve, and the effort itself can keep us awake. The Zen masters understood this well, and discovered that rest often comes more easily when we stop chasing it.This is a long, slow journey through Zen stories and Buddhist teachings for sleep, relaxation, and inner peace. Along the way, we explore letting go, overthinking, the restless mind, and the quiet relief that comes when we stop holding on so tightly.No knowledge of Buddhism or meditation is needed. Get comfortable, and listen for as long as you like.If this helped you rest, you are welcome to follow this sleep podcast for more Zen stories and Buddhist wisdom for sleep, and to share it with anyone who needs a little rest.Original script researched, written and produced by Midnight Monk. ✨🧘🌙
