Find Inner Peace through Acceptance and Surrender While You Sleep | Mindful Movement

Getting upset about pain doesn’t take it away. Thinking about and replaying the past doesn’t give you the ability to change what has already occurred. Worrying, wishing and hoping things were different doesn’t make anything actually change. Let go of the events of the day and surrender into a deep, tranquil sleep. Give yourself permission to simply let go into your own inner peace and self-healing through acceptance and surrender.

“Surrender is a gift that you can give yourself. It’s an act of faith. It’s saying that even though I can’t see where this river is flowing, I trust it will take me in the right direction.” ~ Debbie Ford

What do you want to let go of? What has become too heavy a weight to bear on your journey? Like the falling leaves, it’s time to clear out and free yourself of things you’ve been afraid to let go of. Without the falling of the leaves, there can be no new growth.

We can learn from our faults and grow from our experiences if we allow them. Know that without suffering, we cannot know joy. Without darkness, we cannot know light. Allowing life as it is can lessen any struggle and perhaps, additional, unnecessary suffering.

Frequently, the word “surrender” has negative energy to it. You may think of having to give up something that is important to you or lose control over a situation. Surrender does not mean giving up. When the word surrender is used as a mindfulness practice, it can also be the opportunity to give up anything that is no longer serving you or something that is keeping you stuck.

You ended one of these saying "Sweet dreams, my friend, " and that struck me deeply. I am 70 and live alone and it's been years since I slept with anyone or had the comfort of someone wishing me sweet dreams. Thank you Sara

[kathykirk]

Me too. Never thought I'd end up alone. Family all have their own lives and forget you. These meditations bring comfort. A hug for you my friend and to all others who need one ❤

Ive lost both my mum and dad in under 3 months. My partner has been been diagnosed with cancer, and im currently awaiting possible surgery for a back injury....this year has been incredibly difficult and heartbreaking. Listening to these actually helps with getting some sleep and getting mind into a place of peace and relaxation. I'm happy I came across this channel....thank you 🙏

July 6th marks my first cancerversary. I found Sara Raymond videos a few days later . These videos have helped escape the darkness and despair I was feeling. I listen to Sara everyday. I start each morning with Gratitude Affirmations. In the evening I listen to meditation practices that help me sleep. I am forever grateful for all the work that Sara and Les do to help us all.
May you continue to guide us with your calming voice, and beautiful spirit. You make the world a better place !

I have just been diagnosed with a terminal illness. This meditation is so comforting and keeping me from getting morose. Helps immensely. Thank you . Just what I needed. Offers hope and acceptance with equanimity. I listen to it constantly.

Touch your inner space, which is nothingness manifestation.guide as silent and empty as the sky; it is your inner sky. Once you settle down in your inner sky, you have come home, and a great maturity arises in your actions, in your behavior. Then whatever you do has grace in it. Then whatever you do is a poetry in itself. You live poetry; your walking becomes dancing, your silence becomes music

[daviddean]

Sara Raymond, my world had crashed the last few weeks and at nights when I thought I'd go crazy, I listened to your videos. They got me through a rough time and I'm forever grateful. I told my sister that I don't know what I would have done if not for you. Thank you, Sara Raymond, and keep up your amazing videos.

[MeditationwithClaudiaAlves]

I never realized how much I needed to learn the art of surrender until I came across this sleep meditation. The concept of accepting things as they are has allowed me to let go of so much unnecessary tension and worry. This practice has not only improved my sleep but also my overall approach to life's challenges. Thank you for this beautiful and healing experience.

[eleniandreas]

No other voice so gently and true, it’s like a warm hug on a rainy day 🤗 ❤️🦋

[kathyharris]

Sara, my son died recently, and your sleep meditations are a God send. I can't thank you enough for 🙏💗🤗💞

[bellavita]

I've been listening to Sara's voice guide me many a morning to start my day and many an evening to prepare for sleep. I have tried listening to others but they mostly sound like fingernails on chalkboard to me. Also, it's not just her voice, it is the content within the meditations that make them so powerful. The Mindful Movement is the only YouTube channel I recommend to students and friends for meditations. Thanks for all you do. Namaste 🙏

[janinegraff]

I am a therapist and I've encouraged many of my clients to listen to you.

[connieburns]

Somehow, I was guided to this calming beautiful meditation this morning. My Aunt passed away the previous day and I was feeling tremendous guilt for not getting to visit her. I know she's in a better place now and this meditation helped me cope with all my feelings of grief, sadness, guilt. So beautiful, thank you 😓💕

[patriciajackson]

I always feel so much better and happier when I hear your voice i am so grateful for your beautiful meditation thank you from my heart ❤x

[cathyelms]

As a 50 plus person, Guided meditation has been an incredible revelation to me. Why don't medical practitioners embrace this holistic approach and encourage patients with sleep anxiety to try it. Would save billions of pounds on the cost of pills and change people's mindsets for the better. Thank you so much for your generosity.

[tehminahyder]
