I love your new channel as much as I've loved every single video in your original page! You're amazing! Thank you for creating all of these amazing videos! I don't know how I would get through some tough times without the variety of wonderful unique healing loving videos. 💝
I am a mental health therapist. I listen to you every night before bed. I refer my clients to you as well. Thank you so much for the beautiful gifts you have given us. ❤️✨
I'm going through a divorce and all my childhood trauma has been spilling out everywhere. It's hard to help two kids feel safe when you don't even feel safe. I've been listening to this as I fall asleep, and every time I wake up in a panic attack. I'm so glad I found this. Thank you 💗
💜 sending you all love and the hope this continues to help you feel safe and regulate your nervous system. Keep being kind and tender with yourself. Your kids are lucky to have a mom who finds ways to self-soothe.
I'm suffering from anxiety and stress caused by a noisy, inconsiderate neighbor, and this video, which I've been listening to during bedtime for a while, has been super helpful. Thank you for all that you do, Michelle. :)
I am so sorry you have to go through this-- I've been there before many times as a Manhattan dweller. I'm happy to help in any way-- you deserve quiet and sleep! 💜
I needed this more than I can express. My brother was murdered and I feel so out of control and worried every day. Thank you with all my heart. I am able to relax and care for myself during this time. I bring my mind back to your words all day. 💕you changed the game for me. Thank you! 🙏
Dear Heather, my heart goes out to you,so sorry for such a tragic loss, so glad you found Michelle's gifts for us, and finding the meditation to contribute to your healing and recovery. Sending blessings and hoping it works for me too....❤
When I was little and upset or hurt my mother would embrace me in her arms and rock me and sing ahh ahh baby. It was soothing in spite of her being tone deaf and totally off key. This meditation is so good I want to live inside it. It’s better then those ahh babies. A nurturing person touches my face gently and speaks through soft lips close to my ear I’m safe. .what a beautiful rhapsodic image. Sanctuary indeed
Thank you, Larry. I think, and hope, one by one we can all try and live inside that cocoon of comfort, especially before falling asleep. We never stop needing that sense of safety.
I find myself back at this meditation again. As a child, I used to think once you reached adulthood you wouldn't need to "feel safe" but now I find myself needing it more than ever...isolation isn't good for the psyche...I hope that everyone can feel safe and find their place in the world, their niche...
Can you tell me what that felt like .Mom and I always hurt eachother to much to ever even like eachother. I was left to care for myself because I was all she ever gave me. It hurts I wish at 45 that there was foster families for those like me that never had more then pain from my own dna . Not tdying to be a bummer just trying to tell my truth . I have never been safe yiu must be safe to feel safe .
I have a PTSD diagnosis and a lot of things happened in June/July. I’ve had nightmares almost daily for the last month, and for the last several days haven’t felt safe in my body (which has been impacting my sleep and leading to insomnia). Last night was the first time in days that I slept for 8 hours and didn’t have nightmares that affected me upon waking. Thank you so much!!
Sending love and so sorry that you're dealing with this. I am so glad this meditation helped. I went through something similar years ago and for the first time truly understand how hard it is to exist when our bodies no longer feel safe. It's what inspired me to write this meditation. You deserve to feel safe and comfortable in your body 💜
Thanks! I know it's not much...but it's what I can afford at the moment. 🙏🏻 I am super grateful that I found your channel. I have never heard a voice so beautiful as yours. I am also sending you all the unconditional love and good vibes that a heart can carry ❤.
I hope to convey how grateful I am for this-- and it is a lot. So thank you so much for being here and supporting my work and I hope it continues to help whenever you listen 💜
I’m about ready to write of a day in 5th grade when I was publicly humiliated. I sure wish I had such overwhelmingly kind and soothing comfort to absorb back then, your meditative words, with elegant luxurious background chords. I would’ve replayed it for hours until I felt strong enough to leave wallowing in my childhood bedroom. I’ve completed the first 5-pages of my story concerning the first day of middle school. The terrible day, however, won’t arrive until October. It will be challenging to describe but these works you’ve published have provided a tremendous amount of inspiration to write until satisfied, Michelle. 🕊️💕 Thank-you.
Maybe by writing about that time you can start to heal. As I write the stories of days like that in my life I am learning how to heal and release the hurt, and how I can turn it into something positive by comforting others with the opposite of what I received at school and have been through since then. I wake up each day and choose to calm myself, to love and to care for myself and others I come into contact with... Sending you healing comfort and care. Blessings from South Eastern Australia, Dot
Yes, Dot. Thank-you for reading/thinking of me. I’ve discovered Anna Runkle “Crappy Childhood Fairy” since my last comment here. Anna ia awesome on advice for overcoming our dysregulated selves. Michelle’s work here have helped heal and guide me. 🕊️🙏💕
Thank you for this calming, peaceful video. Thank you, Michelle. Wonderful work, here! ❤ I suffer from CPTSD and sleep deprivation due to nightmares and night terrors. This video is still the one I go to when all of my other therapeutic tools fail me in trying to relax to sleep. Thank you for always reminding me, “To take away something’s power over you, take away the one thing you give it: your attention.” This meditation always helps to remind me that I am now in a very safe state, even if I wasn’t waaaay back then when I suffered what I did. Thank you for helping me be grateful for the here and now, and helping my body to accept and release the pent up emotions that jostle around inside of my mind. ❤
Thank you for this message and I’m so glad this helps. I hope you take the time to celebrate yourself for all you are doing to cope and heal. It’s not easy. Especially when your own mind and dreamscape does the opposite of what you need. I hope it continues to help whenever you listen 💖
You don’t even know how much your videos mean to me. Literally keep me so calm n safe feeling. I don’t have anyone in my life that makes me feel safe but you do. Tysm!!!🤍🤍🤍
This is the only meditation that could get me to sleep a week in a row. Tried a lot of meditations, and after one, two nights I get used to them and they are not effective anymore. This is an exception, so thank you so much ❤
I know firsthand how amazing it is to find something that works consistently and I'm honored this one is doing that for you. Hope you continue to feel safe as you dream away ✨
I can’t thank you enough for these meditations!! 🥰 The stories are wonderful but these are helping me so much more. I’ve had trauma that’s stripped me of feeling safe in this world. I sleep about 3-4 hrs a night & not usually straight through that. It’s miserable. BUT the last few days, I’ve listened to your meditations & fallen asleep faster & have slept longer (5 hrs so far). I feel like I’ve turned a corner & it will keep getting better. Your soft, comforting voice & talking throughout (vs others that come in & out & loud, waking me up). Just beautiful & it’s so generous of you to offer these for free no less! Thank you, thank you & thank you!! You’re an angel. 🤗💜
Thank you for sharing this, Melissa! I am so happy for you-- that's amazing that your sleep cycle is getting better. I know it can keep improving--- I was a terrible insomniac myself. I'm so honored to be part of your journey and I hope you continue to feel safe and sleep more and more. Sweet dreams!
This meditation is another win! I slept really well. Actually in the morning I did notice that I felt 'better' than I typically do in the morning, but I had forgotten that I had listened to this one until I checked my youtube history. I am definitely coming back to this one again. Thank you Michelle, your new channel is off to a wonderful start!
I'm so glad you felt better in the morning! I have been playing with concepts in this meditation in my sleep routine and woke up this morning with my arms hugging around me and felt so good. There is power in these mantras for safety and care as evidenced by my self-conscious response!
This video has made such a difference for me. I always return to this one in times of crisis, and I’m deeply grateful you chose to make this. Wishing divine protection and safety to all who read this 🤍 Thank you
All of you're tracks that I've listened to while sleeping are amazing nightmare busters,but this one actually ended up helping me wake up in less physical pain than I normally do,I had the most relaxed sleep I've had in a while ❤ you're work is definitely one of my tools in my self care tool kit. Thank you! I hope you're well hydrated and I hope you take good care of yourself
Michelle, you’re very talented. I’m so blessed I found your meditations. I get migraines frequently and your pain ones always help. Never fails. If I’m sad, stressed, in pain, or just looking to nap… I go straight to your videos. Sometimes if I fall asleep before my husband, he will sneak in and play one of your meditations. He knows you’re my favorite. Thank you so much for what you do. ❤️
Thank you for your comment, Sarah--- I'm sorry it took so long for me to respond. I love that he will play them! It's an honor to be part of your sleep journey and hope my stories and meditations continue to help whenever you need them!
I don't have your wonderful way with words to express just how grateful I am to you and all you do. This found me today when I really needed it to and it is beautiful, I have a feeling it will be listened to regularly. Thank you for sharing this 💖
Thank you so much Emma. What a beautiful comment-- it means so much to read this and is exactly what I hoped for when I sat down and wrote this script.
I did a search for a nighttime meditation for me to feel safe. This is absolutely beautiful. Thank you. C-ptsd hypersensitive nervous system thanks you. ❤
What an honour it is to be able to help-- the greatest compliment I could receive as I wrote this hoping it would help people feel safe when dealing with C-PTSD 💜
Thank you for this one! I’ve been extra anxious lately and it’s been difficult to cope with it - this meditation was such a good reminder that these challenges are temporary and we can feel safer in our own bodies ❤
I'm so glad it helped a little-- we deserve to feel safe in our bodies, even when everything else may seem a bit chaotic. Hope it continues to resonate with you 💜
hi Michelle! been very depressed as of late and most of the time I just feel overwhelmed and fragile. really in need of feelings of safety at the moment. looking forward to listening ❤️
I hope this helps. Know that you aren't alone. We have been through so much collectively the past few years. Sending this with a loving hug and reminder that it is normal feel fragile and overwhelmed in a time of such chaos. But it will pass.
I love this so much- eases me into a gentle sleep. I have used this meditation many times, but each time I notice some new imagery some soft ideas that I haven't noticed before. So it always feels fresh and new, deeply resonates. Thankyou.
I hope you realize that this is Michelle's second channel "Michelle's sanctuary" still exists alongside this channel. The names are similar as this channel is called "Michelle's meditation sanctuary". May you enjoy listening to both channels Blessings, Dot
I was suddenly, without warning physically attacked today and have been in deep shock and distress all day, I have simply not experienced anything like this! My inner child was triggered into a sense of helplessness, although I was not left with any physical injuries. I had support (police, family and friends) and after several hours am calmer, but still feel dread in my core. I hope this meditation will help restore my equilibrium, after all my wonderful experiences in this channel, I believe it will. I'll report back. Best wishes everyone, dream away and sleep well, may we find restoration in our sleep and in our dreams. 🙏🏼
I truly hope that this helps-- I am so sorry that this happened to you. I know too well the repercussions that follow from such events and I'm glad you didn't have any injuries. But it definitely, at least in the moment and moments after, can shift our relationships with the world. The best thing is that you have support-- and I recall during one of the times I've been in your position that I read the support we receive after is the most vital in how we handle and overcome the trauma the episode causes. So be kind to yourself and proud that you are doing all that you can right now to tend to yourself. 💜
@@MichellesMeditationSanctuary Thanks Michelle! You often say, "think of me as a friend" and in fact, I do and you are one of the friends that supported me yesterday. The You are safe, meditation did help me get to sleep and gave me good things to consider. Also reading people's comments helped me feel less alone. In the night I woke and then listened to your latest story, the floating camp at sugar hollow to help get back to sleep - I hadn't got far into it on Sunday before falling asleep, so when the hip pain (that you also experienced) bothered me in the night as well as the upset of the day, I listened again and got further into the story this time. Even though it took longer to fall back asleep than it usually does, the story was lovely and made me feel happy and so lucky to have the amazing resource you provided and then I did fall asleep at some point. After the attack yesterday, I was not able to do any of the work I'd planned, and I felt shaky and unprepared for a workshop I facilitated today. However, it went amazingly! I was completely in flow and had wonderful participants. Thanks for contributing to me getting, if not a full night's sleep, still enough rest to not only function but get into flow and enjoy my session and be able this morning to identify good things in my life.
@@MichellesMeditationSanctuary I also want to say, that I'm sorry you were ever in the same position, and thank you that you used insights from your experience to help others.
@@TanyaMoi I'm so glad the workshop went well! I hate that we ever have to experience such things but I hope you're proud of yourself for truly doing all you can to take care of yourself right now and still connect with others! Hope you are able to sleep well tonight 💜 So glad you feel supported.
I am glad to say that after a few days I seemed to regain my equilibrium. I'm also having treatment for my hip/leg pain and doing more regular foam rolling again, which I'd neglected, and there's definite improvement. The person who attacked me apologised (it seems it was similar to a dementia episode of the person) and I chose to forgive him and not press charges, although there is a record of this at the police. Through this the message was sent to his family that behaviour like that is not acceptable and that there is protection for others, but also that forgiveness and peace are better ways in situations like this. I have peace about this decision.
@@MichellesMeditationSanctuaryohhh trusted friend and guide, I truly enjoy all of your meditations and sleep stories. Each one is a unique treasure! ❤️ 🌼 😘
Thank you so much! I love these meditations with an endgoal even more than the location stories! I like knowing beforehand what I will get out of the session and I like how I don't make myself feel guilty for the time off because I know it's bringing specific advantages into my life... Plus having some freedom to imagine things myself allows me to give it more of a personal spin. I thought I'd comment since this might be interesting insight into the mind of the troubled people who seek your videos 😅
Thank you so much for your kind and thoughtful words and I am sorry it took so long to respond. And, yes, I want everyone to let go of that guilt for taking time to imagine, relax, and sleep! Modern times have done quite a number on us expecting to always be productive. Thanks for letting me be part of your journey! 💜🌸
This was so beautiful and comforting and made me more aware of how disconnected I've become and just how sensitive to people's energies I am. Thank you SO much..xx
What a wonderful discovery-- thank you for sharing, Jackie. I hope this continues to help on your journey! And I completely understand what this can feel like.
Pat Conroy would be so proud of you! Giving people a safe place to go. My other Pat Conroy fan person! I wish I could hear the pen pal letters, but then, I don't because they are yours! Love ❤️😘
Thank you so much-- it means so much! His written words were everything a creative should read. And I think that level of empathy is what made his work so touching. He really set the bar high for role models and writers.
Hi Michelle, I'm a medium. Since I had seen scary stuff in as a kid my 3rd eye hesites about seeing things. I was afraid of the dark, spiders and coaches. 🤢 But little by little I begin to recognize I'm an adult now (66) with adult power. 💪 Rosie 🌹💐
I'm so glad-- I'm no stranger to seeing such things myself and took a long time to navigate. So happy you're now empowered and hope you continue to feel safe and dream away 💜
Wow. Thank you so much for this gift to humanity. It's an amazing compilation of perfect music and visualizations. And to make it this long is a huge task for you. It's greatly appreciated. ❤️😁
@@MichellesMeditationSanctuary I forwarded one of your guided meditations for getting BACK to sleep to a very cynical person & they enjoyed it & it worked
@@youdontmatter2me Thank you for forwarding-- I'm so glad they gave it a try despite being cynical! I was doubtful meditation could ever work and then when it did, I wished I had discovered it sooner!
My husband was killed last year & I miss him terribly , my anxiety has been crippling. Tonight, am trying this .. 🤞🏻let you know tomorrow how it went. Sweet dreams ☮️💜
What an incredibly hard loss to endure-- I am so sorry. I hope this helps you feel safe in your body and that you know how welcome you are here. You are amazing for looking for ways to help you adjust during this time and you will find the things that help soften moments. You very much deserve to feel safe and sleep well tonight and every night. 💜
I'm looking for a certain sleep story I listened to about a year ago. I can't remember much of the detail because it put me at ease so fast. I just remember Michelle talking about walking up to a stereo I believe. She said to turn up bliss on the dial, and there was some other things she said to turn up and down. Any guesses on what story it maybe?
I think I had an extra corporeal experience today. I started listening to this but in pieces because today was shopping day for food for our bomb shelter. I sit in car with dog while my better half does the shopping. As I was listening I noticed The beginning sounded like your other meditation. So I made a snarky comment about it’s a good beginning but was surprised you used it again. Truth is I think I was listening to your other meditation since you quoted Wagner. And truth is I have listened to it many times but only once all the way through so I didn’t remember much of the middle and end. Then I couldn’t find my comments so I’m not sure I even sent them so if I did my mistake in that you didn’t plagiarize yourself my homemade lobotomy must have worked. So as for this meditation : it’s very soothing. I will not hug myself though it just feels odd. I don’t feel safe I’m unsure I can protect others I care for but I like hearing you tell me I’m safe. In that moment I hold onto your words. I’ll stay awake for awhile longer on guard duty. You sleep
@larry I wish I could get your dog's review of this. Now, I could be mischievous and say this was your error, but in truth, I had to repost the video. I had corrupted files while editing and hadn't realized that the same audio for my last video ended up getting switched. At first I was so confused because while similar, I didn't think they were THAT similar. I'm sure most of us haven't felt safe many times in the course of the past two years. But we cannot stay in a constant state of trauma without consequences to our body. So you may not be ready for being "odd" but I have always taken oddness over feeling bad. It does wonders for the nervous system-- but perhaps a hug from the wife or a weighted blanket could also do wonders as well.
@@MichellesMeditationSanctuary Then I didn’t fall into a worm hole or hallucinate and my lobotomy was unnecessary? Oh well. I just saw this response now at almost 4 a.m on your birthday. I wrote three or four long tomes of blabbering bill poop that was really depressing and stream of god knows what consciousness like an old 70s book I read once. Hugs aren’t offered around here maybe I’m not huggable. So your beautiful tapestry of words and images suffice for hugs and images of a sweet pure world that I once believed do strongly in before ontological angst became a part of me. It reminds me of what was and what if. My dogs review was actually about me because she’s pathologically attached to me which is very complimentary and frightening at the same time. She must be with me always or she freaks out. She seems to like your voice but not as much as romantic classical music and food. And likes being my diva most of all. She came to us neglected and abandoned so we spoil her. Weighted blankets I would prefer if my dog would actually sleep on the couch with me but since she went blind she doesn’t like being elevated off ground which is why I’m on the sofa and she’s in one of her 5 beds. She used to sleep in bed with us but after going blind refuses the bedroom altogether. I don’t leave her alone or she freaks out. So we take her wherever she’s allowed to go. So I don’t get much sleep she wakes me up many times a night to go out or for water if she can’t find her bowl or for attention if she’s scared I’m not here. That’s who I’m up now at I think it’s 4 am and can’t get back to sleep yet. So I’ll listen to some more meditations while wqxr plays softly and I use my hand me down Microsoft blanket to wrap myself in and wait for slumber to let me go.
I think a follow up for this one might be about love and compassion. It isn’t easy for me to imagine how you’d accomplish such, subjects so personal in nature. However, I’ll bet you already have a framework in mind. Do you get most of your inspiration during moments after waking, like songwriters often do?
I'm working on a few-- and next week should have a new one. Sometimes when I first awaken-- very often, actually. But also sometimes when I'm just about to fall asleep.
Its hard to sleep listening to this. I feel like I gotta be more awake when meditation and receiving such importance and being more awake. When trying to sleep i like peaceful music meditation bowls not a fan of talking it keeps me distracted. Does anyone else have this issue
Interesting. Stick to what works for you. The idea is that your subconscious mind can absorb these messages even while you sleep. But if it keeps you up, follow what works for you. It works for many but nothing works for everyone.
Ugh! I can't even do anything about that. Until I hit 4000 hours of watch time and am a RUclips partner they just changed the rules so they can run ads! I hope this doesn't happen for anyone else. I believe I only need another thousand watch hours and I can control ads.I'm so sorry.
We will just have to keep watching your videos then! I'm sure that we will all be keen to help you reach that target and exceed expectations! I know I won't have to force myself to watch the videos you create for this channel, I tend to gravitate towards your meditations and often take hours to fall asleep because of the chronic health challenges I face. My rescue cat ( Shadow the scaredy cat) has gotten used to the sound of your voice and visibly calms when I play your videos. He snuggles next to the phone that I play your videos on, prepares himself with a quick wash and then starts snoring within 5 minutes. At 6am almost every morning (when my mind and body are settled for sleep) he becomes my extra wheatbag or hot water bottle, curled against my sore hip or another sore spot. He seems to know when the pain, discomfort or tiredness are getting to me, appearing to become a playful kitten again, being silly, giving head bumps and purrs. We sleep the morning away. Blessings, Dot
Hold up....where did you come from on the RUclips sleep meditations?! Has my anxiety kept me under a rock? You are literally speaking to my soul, so much so I had to sit up and actually soak all of this in. Usually I don't listen to women for sleep meditations, reason unknown to why I would even have a preference of voice tones, but you're different. Thank you for transforming my energy, thank you for a slice of peace and a wave of serenity; thank you for being the first thing that showed up because you completely grounded me in the best way. Thank you for allowing me to let my guard down and rest my mind, body and soul. 💞
This is Michelle's second channel. Her other channel, called "Michelle's sanctuary" instead of "Michelle's meditation sanctuary" has many videos. Her sleep stories are detailed and beautifully made... I hope you will find them helpful. If you do check out the other channel you might find the older videos (more like this video). Blessings, Dot
I don't like the focus on "you will experience things you never wish you had - it will pass." those places worry in me, not peace. "it may happen that you feel a difficult thing, and that it is too much - just let go etc". wtf? In a meditation I want to be reminded of peacefull things, positive things. When needing a meditation, one often have the stress already - and need a way to let it go with feeling peace and safety instead. Much is good though with the voice and meditation, but please don't mention the bad stuff. It's like telling a story, of people being horrible to you, elaborating all they did and said, then concluding with you survived it. Thats 10 mins of feeling worry, then letting go of it. Instead, "I feel peace today" "I feel good now". Anyhow. These will be good after that little tweak. :)
Thanks for the feedback. Some people specifically requested this with a focus on empathy and acknowledging reality as ignoring it made it harder. I understand why this didn’t work for you.
I recommend now that RUclips has changed the rules for all creators that you put a sleep timer on your phone or device because these ads are coming at the end often and we have no control. 💜

I find myself back at this meditation again. As a child, I used to think once you reached adulthood you wouldn't need to "feel safe" but now I find myself needing it more than ever...isolation isn't good for the psyche...I hope that everyone can feel safe and find their place in the world, their niche...
@Larry. You're lucky Larry...my mother was unable to soothe us as children or hold us....I missed that as a child ..🙏😓
Can you tell me what that felt like .Mom and I always hurt eachother to much to ever even like eachother. I was left to care for myself because I was all she ever gave me. It hurts I wish at 45 that there was foster families for those like me that never had more then pain from my own dna . Not tdying to be a bummer just trying to tell my truth . I have never been safe yiu must be safe to feel safe .
Manifest and rewire the way you think about yourself. Let's be kinder to ourselves we deserve it. This is a beautiful meditation
EVERYTHING IS GOING TO BE OKAY. I AM SAFE. THANK YOU SO MUCH HOLY ANGEL. 🌷🕯️🌷

I have a PTSD diagnosis and a lot of things happened in June/July. I’ve had nightmares almost daily for the last month, and for the last several days haven’t felt safe in my body (which has been impacting my sleep and leading to insomnia). Last night was the first time in days that I slept for 8 hours and didn’t have nightmares that affected me upon waking. Thank you so much!!
Sending love and so sorry that you're dealing with this. I am so glad this meditation helped. I went through something similar years ago and for the first time truly understand how hard it is to exist when our bodies no longer feel safe. It's what inspired me to write this meditation. You deserve to feel safe and comfortable in your body 💜
Thanks! I know it's not much...but it's what I can afford at the moment. 🙏🏻

This meditation is my new "go to" and perfectly timed 🥰 You have a gift 🎁 and I for one am so very grateful that I found you ❤ 😊 💕
I’m about ready to write of a day in 5th grade when I was publicly humiliated. I sure wish I had such overwhelmingly kind and soothing comfort to absorb back then, your meditative words, with elegant luxurious background chords. I would’ve replayed it for hours until I felt strong enough to leave wallowing in my childhood bedroom. I’ve completed the first 5-pages of my story concerning the first day of middle school. The terrible day, however, won’t arrive until October. It will be challenging to describe but these works you’ve published have provided a tremendous amount of inspiration to write until satisfied, Michelle. 🕊️💕 Thank-you.
Maybe by writing about that time you can start to heal. As I write the stories of days like that in my life I am learning how to heal and release the hurt, and how I can turn it into something positive by comforting others with the opposite of what I received at school and have been through since then.
I wake up each day and choose to calm myself, to love and to care for myself and others I come into contact with... Sending you healing comfort and care. Blessings from South Eastern Australia, Dot
Yes, Dot. Thank-you for reading/thinking of me. I’ve discovered Anna Runkle “Crappy Childhood Fairy” since my last comment here. Anna ia awesome on advice for overcoming our dysregulated selves. Michelle’s work here have helped heal and guide me. 🕊️🙏💕
Thank you for this calming, peaceful video. Thank you, Michelle. Wonderful work, here! ❤ I suffer from CPTSD and sleep deprivation due to nightmares and night terrors. This video is still the one I go to when all of my other therapeutic tools fail me in trying to relax to sleep. Thank you for always reminding me, “To take away something’s power over you, take away the one thing you give it: your attention.” This meditation always helps to remind me that I am now in a very safe state, even if I wasn’t waaaay back then when I suffered what I did. Thank you for helping me be grateful for the here and now, and helping my body to accept and release the pent up emotions that jostle around inside of my mind. ❤
Thank you for this message and I’m so glad this helps. I hope you take the time to celebrate yourself for all you are doing to cope and heal. It’s not easy. Especially when your own mind and dreamscape does the opposite of what you need. I hope it continues to help whenever you listen 💖
This just appeared and I see all the numbers lining up in the views and likes and even the time was my birthday. A lovely sign from the universe. 💖🌸🦋✨
What synchronicity! Love this! ✨
Be positive and strong and safe God bless you and Happy Easter 🐰🐣, 💘🙏😇😊 peace and serenity 😅
Beautiful message-- thank you!
Thanks 🙏😊❤
You know those moments when a meditation comes at the perfect time in ones life ... this was one 💛
I'm grateful for the synchronicity-- hope this brought you peace! 💜
@@MichellesMeditationSanctuary yes it was perfect one of your best if you don’t mind me saying ❤️👋
You don’t even know how much your videos mean to me. Literally keep me so calm n safe feeling. I don’t have anyone in my life that makes me feel safe but you do. Tysm!!!🤍🤍🤍
It’s a privilege to be able to create this sanctuary and I’m so grateful you are here. 💜
I needed that perspective, my fundamental needs are being met -with ❤ & thanks
My pleasure, always-- so glad it helps 💜
This is the only meditation that could get me to sleep a week in a row. Tried a lot of meditations, and after one, two nights I get used to them and they are not effective anymore. This is an exception, so thank you so much ❤
I know firsthand how amazing it is to find something that works consistently and I'm honored this one is doing that for you. Hope you continue to feel safe as you dream away ✨
2024 is going to be a glorious year, Michelle! 🕊️🙏💕
I dont have a room n its really hard to feel safe atm so im grateful for this thank you
Sending you love-- and the hope that you feel safe when you listen. And imagine the room you will one day have. 💜
I can’t thank you enough for these meditations!! 🥰 The stories are wonderful but these are helping me so much more. I’ve had trauma that’s stripped me of feeling safe in this world. I sleep about 3-4 hrs a night & not usually straight through that. It’s miserable. BUT the last few days, I’ve listened to your meditations & fallen asleep faster & have slept longer (5 hrs so far). I feel like I’ve turned a corner & it will keep getting better. Your soft, comforting voice & talking throughout (vs others that come in & out & loud, waking me up). Just beautiful & it’s so generous of you to offer these for free no less! Thank you, thank you & thank you!! You’re an angel. 🤗💜
Thank you for sharing this, Melissa! I am so happy for you-- that's amazing that your sleep cycle is getting better. I know it can keep improving--- I was a terrible insomniac myself. I'm so honored to be part of your journey and I hope you continue to feel safe and sleep more and more. Sweet dreams!
@@MichellesMeditationSanctuary 🥰🤗💜🤗💕
Thank you for your meditations. They help me so much. I have made so much progress in my healing journey because of your soothing meditations.
This means a lot-- I hope they make you feel safe and cared for! Thank you for your kind words!
I feel so loved and safe, like someone is tucked me in. Love ❣️ this so much 💞😍!!!
Exactly what I hoped-- sweet dreams, Alan!
Thanks so much 💞😍
This meditation is another win! I slept really well. Actually in the morning I did notice that I felt 'better' than I typically do in the morning, but I had forgotten that I had listened to this one until I checked my youtube history. I am definitely coming back to this one again. Thank you Michelle, your new channel is off to a wonderful start!
I'm so glad you felt better in the morning! I have been playing with concepts in this meditation in my sleep routine and woke up this morning with my arms hugging around me and felt so good. There is power in these mantras for safety and care as evidenced by my self-conscious response!
This video has made such a difference for me. I always return to this one in times of crisis, and I’m deeply grateful you chose to make this. Wishing divine protection and safety to all who read this 🤍 Thank you
I’m so glad and I hope it offer a sense of ease, safety, and peace for all who listen. 💜
All of you're tracks that I've listened to while sleeping are amazing nightmare busters,but this one actually ended up helping me wake up in less physical pain than I normally do,I had the most relaxed sleep I've had in a while ❤ you're work is definitely one of my tools in my self care tool kit. Thank you! I hope you're well hydrated and I hope you take good care of yourself
Happy Labor Day 💘😇🇺🇸😊💜
Michelle, you’re very talented. I’m so blessed I found your meditations. I get migraines frequently and your pain ones always help. Never fails. If I’m sad, stressed, in pain, or just looking to nap… I go straight to your videos. Sometimes if I fall asleep before my husband, he will sneak in and play one of your meditations. He knows you’re my favorite. Thank you so much for what you do. ❤️
Thank you for your comment, Sarah--- I'm sorry it took so long for me to respond. I love that he will play them! It's an honor to be part of your sleep journey and hope my stories and meditations continue to help whenever you need them!
Thank you, Michelle for doing what you do. You have helped me so many times when I needed it.
I'm so glad that I've been able to help in any way. I hope these meditations continue to bring comfort. Thank you for being here!
I don't have your wonderful way with words to express just how grateful I am to you and all you do. This found me today when I really needed it to and it is beautiful, I have a feeling it will be listened to regularly. Thank you for sharing this 💖
Thank you so much Emma. What a beautiful comment-- it means so much to read this and is exactly what I hoped for when I sat down and wrote this script.
I return to this meditation often. It provides me with great comfort. I just wanted you to know, Michelle. Thank you, again. 💓
Thank you for letting me know! I'm so glad this has helped. And I hope it continues to make you feel safe whenever you need to unwind and sleep.
I did a search for a nighttime meditation for me to feel safe. This is absolutely beautiful. Thank you.
C-ptsd hypersensitive nervous system thanks you. ❤
What an honour it is to be able to help-- the greatest compliment I could receive as I wrote this hoping it would help people feel safe when dealing with C-PTSD 💜
Thank you so much ❤@@MichellesMeditationSanctuary
You have the most calming voice I’ve ever heard. Thank you for putting so much hard work into these videos.🙏
Thank you-- your words mean a lot and I truly appreciate it!
I love this guided meditation 🧘♂️ Thank you Michelle for yet another wonderfully relaxing video from @MichellesSanctuary ❤
I'm so glad you enjoy this one-- I have a new one coming out called "Feels Like Home" that you may also enjoy!
Thank you for this one! I’ve been extra anxious lately and it’s been difficult to cope with it - this meditation was such a good reminder that these challenges are temporary and we can feel safer in our own bodies ❤
I'm so glad it helped a little-- we deserve to feel safe in our bodies, even when everything else may seem a bit chaotic. Hope it continues to resonate with you 💜
hi Michelle! been very depressed as of late and most of the time I just feel overwhelmed and fragile. really in need of feelings of safety at the moment. looking forward to listening ❤️
I hope this helps. Know that you aren't alone. We have been through so much collectively the past few years. Sending this with a loving hug and reminder that it is normal feel fragile and overwhelmed in a time of such chaos. But it will pass.
Sending much love to you💝
@@brookeshaffer4377 💜💜💜💜
💙🙏
I love this so much- eases me into a gentle sleep. I have used this meditation many times, but each time I notice some new imagery some soft ideas that I haven't noticed before. So it always feels fresh and new, deeply resonates. Thankyou.
You're so welcome! I'm so glad it's helping!
It’s so annoying when I find myself unsubscribed from one of my favourite meditation channels... Love you 💕
Oh no! Glad you found me anyway!
I hope you realize that this is Michelle's second channel "Michelle's sanctuary" still exists alongside this channel. The names are similar as this channel is called "Michelle's meditation sanctuary".
May you enjoy listening to both channels
Blessings, Dot
@@dotcassilles1488 thank-you I’ve been a subscriber for years
I was suddenly, without warning physically attacked today and have been in deep shock and distress all day, I have simply not experienced anything like this! My inner child was triggered into a sense of helplessness, although I was not left with any physical injuries.
I had support (police, family and friends) and after several hours am calmer, but still feel dread in my core.
I hope this meditation will help restore my equilibrium, after all my wonderful experiences in this channel, I believe it will. I'll report back.
Best wishes everyone, dream away and sleep well, may we find restoration in our sleep and in our dreams. 🙏🏼
I truly hope that this helps-- I am so sorry that this happened to you. I know too well the repercussions that follow from such events and I'm glad you didn't have any injuries. But it definitely, at least in the moment and moments after, can shift our relationships with the world. The best thing is that you have support-- and I recall during one of the times I've been in your position that I read the support we receive after is the most vital in how we handle and overcome the trauma the episode causes. So be kind to yourself and proud that you are doing all that you can right now to tend to yourself. 💜
@@MichellesMeditationSanctuary Thanks Michelle! You often say, "think of me as a friend" and in fact, I do and you are one of the friends that supported me yesterday. The You are safe, meditation did help me get to sleep and gave me good things to consider. Also reading people's comments helped me feel less alone.
In the night I woke and then listened to your latest story, the floating camp at sugar hollow to help get back to sleep - I hadn't got far into it on Sunday before falling asleep, so when the hip pain (that you also experienced) bothered me in the night as well as the upset of the day, I listened again and got further into the story this time. Even though it took longer to fall back asleep than it usually does, the story was lovely and made me feel happy and so lucky to have the amazing resource you provided and then I did fall asleep at some point.
After the attack yesterday, I was not able to do any of the work I'd planned, and I felt shaky and unprepared for a workshop I facilitated today. However, it went amazingly! I was completely in flow and had wonderful participants. Thanks for contributing to me getting, if not a full night's sleep, still enough rest to not only function but get into flow and enjoy my session and be able this morning to identify good things in my life.
@@MichellesMeditationSanctuary I also want to say, that I'm sorry you were ever in the same position, and thank you that you used insights from your experience to help others.
@@TanyaMoi I'm so glad the workshop went well! I hate that we ever have to experience such things but I hope you're proud of yourself for truly doing all you can to take care of yourself right now and still connect with others! Hope you are able to sleep well tonight 💜 So glad you feel supported.
I am glad to say that after a few days I seemed to regain my equilibrium.
I'm also having treatment for my hip/leg pain and doing more regular foam rolling again, which I'd neglected, and there's definite improvement.
The person who attacked me apologised (it seems it was similar to a dementia episode of the person) and I chose to forgive him and not press charges, although there is a record of this at the police. Through this the message was sent to his family that behaviour like that is not acceptable and that there is protection for others, but also that forgiveness and peace are better ways in situations like this.
I have peace about this decision.
This meditation is a blessing thank you 🙏🏻
You are so welcome 💜
This has become a favorite of mine. Thank you so much for the reassurance and comfort, Michelle. You are truly gifted. 💜
I'm so glad you enjoy this one. 💜🌸💜🌸💜🌸
@@MichellesMeditationSanctuaryohhh trusted friend and guide, I truly enjoy all of your meditations and sleep stories. Each one is a unique treasure! ❤️ 🌼 😘
Relaxing voice ever and beautiful😍✨✨✨❤❤❤ music🎶🧘♀
Thank you!
Hey I love your meditation they are so calming please make more like this
Thank you, Julie-- I have many more planned for the fall!
Thank you so much! I love these meditations with an endgoal even more than the location stories! I like knowing beforehand what I will get out of the session and I like how I don't make myself feel guilty for the time off because I know it's bringing specific advantages into my life... Plus having some freedom to imagine things myself allows me to give it more of a personal spin. I thought I'd comment since this might be interesting insight into the mind of the troubled people who seek your videos 😅
Thank you so much for your kind and thoughtful words and I am sorry it took so long to respond. And, yes, I want everyone to let go of that guilt for taking time to imagine, relax, and sleep! Modern times have done quite a number on us expecting to always be productive. Thanks for letting me be part of your journey! 💜🌸
This was so beautiful and comforting and made me more aware of how disconnected I've become and just how sensitive to people's energies I am.
Thank you SO much..xx
What a wonderful discovery-- thank you for sharing, Jackie. I hope this continues to help on your journey! And I completely understand what this can feel like.
Pat Conroy would be so proud of you! Giving people a safe place to go. My other Pat Conroy fan person! I wish I could hear the pen pal letters, but then, I don't because they are yours! Love ❤️😘
Thank you so much-- it means so much! His written words were everything a creative should read. And I think that level of empathy is what made his work so touching. He really set the bar high for role models and writers.
Hi Michelle,
I'm a medium. Since I had seen scary stuff in as a kid my 3rd eye hesites about seeing things.
I was afraid of the dark, spiders and coaches. 🤢
But little by little I begin to recognize I'm an adult now (66) with adult power. 💪
Rosie 🌹💐
I'm so glad-- I'm no stranger to seeing such things myself and took a long time to navigate. So happy you're now empowered and hope you continue to feel safe and dream away 💜
Nice music for sleeping
Thank you 🌙
This is such a sweet video with very sweet words it is amazing that you have this to give to people
Thank you, Susan-- we all need to hear this from time to time-- and I really appreciate you taking the time to listen and comment.
Thank you, Michelle for this meditation. It’s exactly what I needed.
I’m so glad it resonates 💖
Wow. Thank you so much for this gift to humanity. It's an amazing compilation of perfect music and visualizations. And to make it this long is a huge task for you.
It's greatly appreciated. ❤️😁
Thank you so much 💜
Thank you for your meditations, I find your voice and content very soothing. Beautiful inside and out.
Thank you so much. Sweet dreams! 🌙
Wow how did this come to me right when it was needed???
I’m so glad the timing was right. 💜
Thanks Michelle
thank you so much. i really feel safe this video helped me a lot
Glad it helped!

Thank you! 💜
I so love this one! 🙏
I have been considering what I can write to follow this one up.
Really liked this one! 👍🏻
Thank you!
I Love 😘 you forever thanks for being so beautiful
I 💜 this channel, it truly is a sanctuary- it creates a feeling of safety, comfort, & peaceful solitude.
That is exactly what I hoped from the moment I wrote my first words for this channel.
@@MichellesMeditationSanctuary I forwarded one of your guided meditations for getting BACK to sleep to a very cynical person & they enjoyed it & it worked
@@youdontmatter2me Thank you for forwarding-- I'm so glad they gave it a try despite being cynical! I was doubtful meditation could ever work and then when it did, I wished I had discovered it sooner!
My husband was killed last year & I miss him terribly , my anxiety has been crippling. Tonight, am trying this .. 🤞🏻let you know tomorrow how it went. Sweet dreams ☮️💜
What an incredibly hard loss to endure-- I am so sorry. I hope this helps you feel safe in your body and that you know how welcome you are here. You are amazing for looking for ways to help you adjust during this time and you will find the things that help soften moments. You very much deserve to feel safe and sleep well tonight and every night. 💜
I recommended your videos to a friend of mine today! This being in my feed was such good timing.
Thank you- I hope your friend enjoys! And that you find peace and sleep with this new meditation. 💜
Love this one. Thank you.
My pleasure-- hope it continues to help!
It does continue to help. The various suggestions woven into the meditation are taking root. I think you are maybe a genius, Dr Michelle.
Thank you 🙏 ❤😊
You are so welcome 💜
I love this!!
I'm so glad! Hope it makes you feel cozy and safe.
I really needed this mediation, thank you Michele
I hope it brings you peace and reassurance-- sending a virtual hug! 💜
This is so comforting Michelle✨Many thanks💝
I hope it brings you peace and rest!
Fabulous as always Michelle!
Thanks so much! 💜
This is lovely
Thank you! I hope it brings comfort with every listen.
This made me cry
Sending a hug! 💜💜💜
I'm looking for a certain sleep story I listened to about a year ago. I can't remember much of the detail because it put me at ease so fast. I just remember Michelle talking about walking up to a stereo I believe. She said to turn up bliss on the dial, and there was some other things she said to turn up and down. Any guesses on what story it maybe?
I have one called "Get Back to Sleep" where you go into a recording studio and adjust the dials. Maybe it was that one?
@@MichellesSanctuary Could be! I'll check it out!
This would be great if it would work 😮
What's not working? What would help?
The emotional cause of my diabetes is I didn't feel safe as a child.
Rosie 🌹
How empowering to make that connection, Rosie. My childhood asthma was from the very same. 💜
❤❤❤
Sweet dreams!
Can this help for someone like me who never completely felt right or felt like he fit here.
I would like to that it could. I'm sorry this has been your experience and hope you feel welcome here 💜
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I think I had an extra corporeal experience today. I started listening to this but in pieces because today was shopping day for food for our bomb shelter. I sit in car with dog while my better half does the shopping. As I was listening I noticed The beginning sounded like your other meditation. So I made a snarky comment about it’s a good beginning but was surprised you used it again. Truth is I think I was listening to your other meditation since you quoted Wagner. And truth is I have listened to it many times but only once all the way through so I didn’t remember much of the middle and end. Then I couldn’t find my comments so I’m not sure I even sent them so if I did my mistake in that you didn’t plagiarize yourself my homemade lobotomy must have worked. So as for this meditation : it’s very soothing. I will not hug myself though it just feels odd. I don’t feel safe I’m unsure I can protect others I care for but I like hearing you tell me I’m safe. In that moment I hold onto your words. I’ll stay awake for awhile longer on guard duty. You sleep
All my prayers love light for this frightening nightmare. Hope.☮️
@larry I wish I could get your dog's review of this. Now, I could be mischievous and say this was your error, but in truth, I had to repost the video. I had corrupted files while editing and hadn't realized that the same audio for my last video ended up getting switched. At first I was so confused because while similar, I didn't think they were THAT similar. I'm sure most of us haven't felt safe many times in the course of the past two years. But we cannot stay in a constant state of trauma without consequences to our body. So you may not be ready for being "odd" but I have always taken oddness over feeling bad. It does wonders for the nervous system-- but perhaps a hug from the wife or a weighted blanket could also do wonders as well.
@@MichellesMeditationSanctuary
Then I didn’t fall into a worm hole or hallucinate and my lobotomy was unnecessary? Oh well. I just saw this response now at almost 4 a.m on your birthday. I wrote three or four long tomes of blabbering bill poop that was really depressing and stream of god knows what consciousness like an old 70s book I read once. Hugs aren’t offered around here maybe I’m not huggable. So your beautiful tapestry of words and images suffice for hugs and images of a sweet pure world that I once believed do strongly in before ontological angst became a part of me. It reminds me of what was and what if. My dogs review was actually about me because she’s pathologically attached to me which is very complimentary and frightening at the same time. She must be with me always or she freaks out. She seems to like your voice but not as much as romantic classical music and food. And likes being my diva most of all. She came to us neglected and abandoned so we spoil her. Weighted blankets I would prefer if my dog would actually sleep on the couch with me but since she went blind she doesn’t like being elevated off ground which is why I’m on the sofa and she’s in one of her 5 beds. She used to sleep in bed with us but after going blind refuses the bedroom altogether. I don’t leave her alone or she freaks out. So we take her wherever she’s allowed to go. So I don’t get much sleep she wakes me up many times a night to go out or for water if she can’t find her bowl or for attention if she’s scared I’m not here. That’s who I’m up now at I think it’s 4 am and can’t get back to sleep yet. So I’ll listen to some more meditations while wqxr plays softly and I use my hand me down Microsoft blanket to wrap myself in and wait for slumber to let me go.
I think a follow up for this one might be about love and compassion. It isn’t easy for me to imagine how you’d accomplish such, subjects so personal in nature. However, I’ll bet you already have a framework in mind. Do you get most of your inspiration during moments after waking, like songwriters often do?
I'm working on a few-- and next week should have a new one. Sometimes when I first awaken-- very often, actually. But also sometimes when I'm just about to fall asleep.
💙💙💙💙💙💙
Hope this helps whenever you need it! 💜
Its hard to sleep listening to this. I feel like I gotta be more awake when meditation and receiving such importance and being more awake. When trying to sleep i like peaceful music meditation bowls not a fan of talking it keeps me distracted. Does anyone else have this issue
Interesting. Stick to what works for you. The idea is that your subconscious mind can absorb these messages even while you sleep. But if it keeps you up, follow what works for you. It works for many but nothing works for everyone.

I used to to celebrate my blood donation .
It works until someone honnnnkkk locks their car and then Im.wide awake for hours like a shot. :*(
That's awful! I'm so sorry.
Listening for about 10 minutes and then, ugh.......an ad starts!
Ugh! I can't even do anything about that. Until I hit 4000 hours of watch time and am a RUclips partner they just changed the rules so they can run ads! I hope this doesn't happen for anyone else. I believe I only need another thousand watch hours and I can control ads.I'm so sorry.
We will just have to keep watching your videos then! I'm sure that we will all be keen to help you reach that target and exceed expectations!
I know I won't have to force myself to watch the videos you create for this channel, I tend to gravitate towards your meditations and often take hours to fall asleep because of the chronic health challenges I face.
My rescue cat ( Shadow the scaredy cat) has gotten used to the sound of your voice and visibly calms when I play your videos. He snuggles next to the phone that I play your videos on, prepares himself with a quick wash and then starts snoring within 5 minutes. At 6am almost every morning (when my mind and body are settled for sleep) he becomes my extra wheatbag or hot water bottle, curled against my sore hip or another sore spot. He seems to know when the pain, discomfort or tiredness are getting to me, appearing to become a playful kitten again, being silly, giving head bumps and purrs. We sleep the morning away.
Blessings, Dot
Me too
I wish water / oceans / tidal pools weren’t included in meditations 😒
What would you like instead?
Xx
Hold up....where did you come from on the RUclips sleep meditations?! Has my anxiety kept me under a rock? You are literally speaking to my soul, so much so I had to sit up and actually soak all of this in. Usually I don't listen to women for sleep meditations, reason unknown to why I would even have a preference of voice tones, but you're different. Thank you for transforming my energy, thank you for a slice of peace and a wave of serenity; thank you for being the first thing that showed up because you completely grounded me in the best way. Thank you for allowing me to let my guard down and rest my mind, body and soul. 💞
This is Michelle's second channel. Her other channel, called "Michelle's sanctuary" instead of "Michelle's meditation sanctuary" has many videos. Her sleep stories are detailed and beautifully made... I hope you will find them helpful. If you do check out the other channel you might find the older videos (more like this video). Blessings, Dot
I’ve listened to lots of sleep meditations - but this one sounds like AI
That’s because AI loves to use the content of creators like me to train them. Always recorded live in my home studio since 2015.
I desire to be next to you understand ?
I don't like the focus on "you will experience things you never wish you had - it will pass." those places worry in me, not peace.
"it may happen that you feel a difficult thing, and that it is too much - just let go etc". wtf?
In a meditation I want to be reminded of peacefull things, positive things.
When needing a meditation, one often have the stress already - and need a way to let it go with feeling peace and safety instead.
Much is good though with the voice and meditation, but please don't mention the bad stuff.
It's like telling a story, of people being horrible to you, elaborating all they did and said, then concluding with you survived it. Thats 10 mins of feeling worry, then letting go of it.
Instead, "I feel peace today" "I feel good now".
Anyhow. These will be good after that little tweak. :)
Thanks for the feedback. Some people specifically requested this with a focus on empathy and acknowledging reality as ignoring it made it harder. I understand why this didn’t work for you.
@@MichellesMeditationSanctuary You have a pleasant voice and pleasant way of talking. So this will go well :)
Terrible,listened to the end, count down to sleep and then a very loud advert came on and destroyed the whole thing
I recommend now that RUclips has changed the rules for all creators that you put a sleep timer on your phone or device because these ads are coming at the end often and we have no control. 💜
This sucks
Yikes. Definitely move on if it conjures this kind of irritation.
