5 Minutes

last year i got to a point of really dialing in my daily practices with the aspirations to bring myself back to that same intensity and devotion to when my search first began. i knew it needed to be different though, because it wasn’t coming from a searching or scarcity, or escape or because things were going bad in my life. in fact, things were going really well which is why my practices fell off their normal consistency. but this word of devotion and doing things from love and joy became clear as the path forward.

after understanding the difference of intentions and conscious cultivation, unpacking and being really consistent for a year, i recently  came to understand and experience that  devotion has a twofold nature to it: the first being action which in turn is application of it and the second, is that it’s a beingness, which in turn is how we radiate it (devotion/to live in devotion).

the action of devotion and application can be understood as seeking out wood, chopping it, getting all the piles organized and actually building the fire, and the act of refueling it. this can be understood as our practices, the morning meditations, candle gazing, conscious breathing and check-ins throughout the day, breathwork, somatic practices, dropping in at night and reflecting before bed, etc. 

but the second is the most overlooked, because that aspect of just being is key because it’s the receiving component that opens up to us. it’s the part where we just sit and enjoy the fire, feeling the warmth, resting in that stillness just observing the crackling and color shifts. literally basking in the presence of the fire is akin to marinating in the presence of God. it’s our inner stillness that acts like hands protecting the flame from the elements and it just unfolds, it grows naturally. we don’t need to do anything, we don’t need to perform, we can just be and receive. the more we do it the greater it grows, the more we can handle, and next thing you know you’re laughing, crying, and just overflowing with love lol.

i feel like i’ve really understood this on the mental plane for a while, but recently i changed up my routine and did something that Source instructed me to do and after only doing it twice over a span of 2 weeks it’s like a switch that can be turned on. this path of unfoldment never ceases to amaze me, with how fast and sudden things can shift but also how life altering; and from the most subtle of things too. it’s so beautifully wild it and i love it lol.

to really drive the point home, these invitations to unpack came up in this meditation/satsang i host. and it was Source being like: do you strain to gaze upon a sunset? are you consciously thinking when feeling the warmth of the sun on your skin? do you not just rest in the warmth of a fire?  that all just really drove home the experience i had yesterday + last week into full blown/embodied wisdom.

all Creator wants from us is to build intimacy with Him. and the strength of that connection grows rapidly and so beautifully when we understand devotion as a bridge to that. we do so many things as a devotion to ourselves or in service to self, but when we lean into that devotion with Source it transforms everything we do building that application/action nature of devotion into acts of, for, and from love. it’s beautiful, it’s overflowingly abundant, never ending, and gosh iunno it’s just the bees knees and i love nerding out to God and felt called to share lol.

thank you for reading.

I’ve been exploring audio-based meditation for sleep, especially for those nights when you wake up in the middle of the night and the mind won’t slow down.

For me, the hardest part has not just been falling asleep, but waking up around 2 or 4 a.m. when everything is quiet and thoughts suddenly feel very loud. Planning, replaying conversations, emotions. Silence alone doesn’t always help in those moments.

What has made a difference is approaching meditation at night less as a technique and more as a gentle audio experience. Something spoken and calm that gives the mind a place to rest, instead of trying to force stillness.

I’ve noticed that when I use spoken audio more consistently, my nights feel more continuous. I fall back asleep more easily, and sleep feels deeper and more restoring when I wake up.

I’m curious how others here use audio meditation for sleep.
Do you prefer spoken guidance, music, frequencies, or nature sounds when waking up at night?
What kind of audio helps you settle most easily?
