Better sleep, better days. So many struggle to “turn off” at night and sleep in a way that is truly restorative. We have designed a special nighttime meditation series to melt away tension and invite a restful night’s sleep.

Elizabeth Cockrell, of Brooklyn Meditation, is an experienced meditation guide who also happens to have a wonderfully soothing voice. She will guide us through a progressive relaxation technique and guided meditation to gently release the thoughts of the day. Naturally, your body and mind will quiet down, allowing for a comfortable, rejuvenating night’s sleep.

Every Tuesday and Thursday night, the sessions will begin at 10pm, and close quietly at 10:45 – but hopefully our “goodnight” will go unheard. 🙂 This is intended to be the last thing you do before falling asleep, so come ready to drift off to dreamland. We’ll see you there!

Completely free and all are welcome. Please share this with anyone who could benefit from sounder sleep and sweeter dreams.
