Rest and Digest

De: Sara Auster

Narrado por: Sara Auster

In this sound bath experience, renowned sound therapist, meditation teacher, and author Sara Auster harnesses the power of peaceful sounds and quiet guidance to help calm your mind and relax your body before bed. Linger softly in the pre-slumber state as Sara helps you access a gentle transition into restful sleep. She will guide your breathing while playing a variety of soothing, overtone-emitting instruments, including tuning forks, crystal singing bowls, and more. Sara has specially designed these recordings with the intention for rest and, ultimately, sleep.

In order to get the most out of your listening experience, she recommends you dim the lights and lie down or sit in a comfortable position with an eye mask and a blanket, silence any alerts or notifications, and use earphones. These things allow you to completely unplug and connect with the present moment to intentionally prepare for sleep. Your body has permission to slow down and rest, to receive without the need to respond or react.

Begin your experience by focusing on your breath, then allow yourself to drift into a spacious and dreamlike state. All you have to do is arrive with an open mind, and listen.

Sara Auster is the leading voice in sound bath experiences, and considered a pioneer and master of the form. Sara has been featured in The New York Times, Vogue, TIME, and O, The Oprah Magazine, and she has facilitated large-scale, site-specific sound bath experiences at iconic venues around the world including the Museum of Modern Art, Madison Square Garden, Palais de Tokyo, and SummerStage in Central Park. Her live sound bath events are celebrated as transformative, therapeutic experiences for balance, relaxation, and well-being. We’re thrilled to be able to bring this unique sound experience to the comfort of your own bedroom for the first time.

Wonderful

If you haven't tried a sound bath before, what a wonderful intro this is! Sara's talents are such a gift and this is such a good way to take your mind off everything and let your body and mind fully relax. Thank you!

sound bath in cold water

the droning/ringing noise was not my cup of tea, it was heard to hear the words, and I am not a fan of the breathing practice described. It didn't do it for me but it wasn't awful.

Starts with a tone, great for sleep

I thought for a little bit that it may be only a 'binaural' style meditation but then the woman gives an instruction on a breathing technique. Then, it's only the sounds. I liked it but it doesn't say it's over so, I kept doing the breathing. That's actually great for a couple of reasons: use this to fall asleep! Or, you can use it to meditate as long as you don't need to have a hard and fast time cut-off.

Quick fix

Very calming and relaxing. Will listen to again, like that it is a short quick fix.

Relaxing

I play this to go to sleep, I find the starting tone to be very soothing. Puts me to sleep so easily. Not sure if ive even heard the entirety of it.

Deepest sleep ahead!

so simple, yet so relaxing. I'm asleep before it's over and get such deep rest.

very nice and relaxing, but a little short

Very soothing sounds and nice guided breathing exercise. I wish it were a little bit longer though.

Relaxing

I like this...wish it was longer. It usually takes me 20-30 minutes to get truly in the sleep zone.

It's useful

The instructions are great. Also the sounds are amazing. It really is helpful at night.

Liked it

Too short. Very nice. Helped me to relax. Sound and voice were soothing. Wish guided breathing was longer.
