The Heavy Blanket Meditation is a gentle, grounding practice designed to offer deep comfort and a sense of safety.
Using the imagery of a warm, weighted blanket, this meditation supports the nervous system to slow down, release tension, and feel held. It’s particularly helpful during times of exhaustion, emotional overwhelm, or when everything feels like a little too much.
This episode is ideal for carers who need reassurance, rest, and permission to pause — even briefly.
Find a comfortable position, press play, and allow yourself to settle into calm and ease.
