Sleep Hypnosis to Stop Overthinking at Night | 1 Hour News Detox for a Racing Mind

Sleep hypnosis to stop overthinking at night and quiet a mind that won't switch off. This one-hour session with Sarah Mercer is a gentle "news detox" — a calm way to step out of the endless scroll of headlines and anxious thoughts, and drift into deep, restful sleep. If your evenings end with a racing mind — replaying the day, worrying about things far beyond your control, unable to put the phone and the news down — this recording is made for you. Sarah guides you slowly through soft, permissive relaxation: letting go of the day, drawing a quiet line between what's in your care and what isn't, and releasing each anxious thought like a dry leaf drifting down a slow river. As the session deepens, the pauses grow longer and the voice softer, carrying you gently toward sleep. This is a secular relaxation session — no pressure, no promises, just a steady voice and quiet space to rest. Many people find it helps to listen every night for thirty nights, letting it become a familiar part of falling asleep. There's no need to force anything; simply notice how it feels to give yourself this quiet time, night after night. Best used in bed, in a dark room, with headphones. Let it play as you drift off. ▶ More sleep sessions in this playlist:    • Stress-relief meditations   ▶ You may also like:    • Guided Sleep Meditation: Sink Into the Mat...   ·    • Drift Off Tonight — Slow Countdown Sleep H...   Chapters: 0:00 Welcome 2:30 Settling 6:00 Breathing 10:00 Grounding 14:00 Letting Go of What You Can't Control 19:00 Choosing Your Attention 21:30 Releasing the Thoughts 26:00 Deep Relaxation 31:00 Drift Off — This recording is intended for relaxation and rest only.
