About this session
- Quiets wandering thoughts
- Invites deep rest
- Relaxes the body
- Eases you back to sleep
This is a five-minute soundscape with no voice and no instructions. Binaural sound plays a slightly different tone in each ear, and together they blend into one soft, even hum. There is nothing to follow or picture. You simply lie still and let the sound fill the quiet around you.
It's made for the moment you surface from sleep in the dark and can't settle again. Keep it ready by your bed, put your headphones on, and press play. It also suits an early bedtime when your mind is busy, or a short rest when you want to drift.

Questions people ask
Still unsure? Ask your assistant anything about this session.
What exactly am I hearing?
You hear binaural tones: a slightly different pitch sent to each ear, which your mind blends into a single soft sound. There is no voice, no melody to follow and no spoken guidance. It is simply a smooth bed of sound to rest inside.
Why do I need headphones for this one?
Binaural sound depends on each ear receiving its own tone. Through speakers the two tones mix in the room, and the effect is lost. Keep the volume low and comfortable, just loud enough to notice the sound.
When is this track most useful?
It is made for waking in the dark and wanting to get back to sleep. Because it is short and needs no setup, you can press play without turning on a light or fully waking up. It also works at the start of the night.
Five minutes feels short. How do I use it for a whole night?
Play it on repeat at a low volume so the sound continues as you fall asleep. If you wake again, it is already there, or you can restart it. Nothing in the track asks you to stay awake to finish it.
Is there anything I should do while it plays?
No technique is needed. Lie comfortably, close your eyes and let your attention rest on the sound. If thoughts come, let them drift by and return to the hum when you notice it.
