Meditate yourself to sleep

While expanding your psychic and soulful abilities

By Bethany LazuliPublished 4 years ago 7 min read

As a young child, I struggled to fall asleep every night of my life until I was old enough to smoke weed and get to sleep anytime I needed. I summed it up to having an over active brain that would not stop rambling on about everything all night. I've spent my last few years expanding my knowledge on chakras and energy flow. This expansion has led me into waters I couldn't imagine existed. I've learned how to feel the energy around me, how to send healing vibrations to a friend in need, how to hear angels and the most fun of all, how to experience past lives for karmic healing.

What I learned this year is that I actually chose this problem prior to coming to Earth for this life, to have as a way to force myself to be conscious in my ways of sleeping. Let me get into more detail about that. I have many different ways of meditating, some of which I do more than others. This practice here is to go along side with chakra balancing and energy grounding. Ensure your energy is safe before attempting to open your consciousness to spiritual messages.

What I must do to sleep every night now is actually a tool my soul uses to direct where my dreams will go and what I will learn. This way of sleeping is how you program yourself with light to learn everything of the world we do not see. Only once we are balanced and rooted in the spirit can we trust anything we see or think we ask for though. Be sure to balance your chakras so your energy can flow and you have control of yourself before asking for any type of spiritual guidance. Without the light, we cannot trust where our ideas or insights come from. Once we know we are safe, we can give access to our guides to enter our world and demonstrate to us what the needs of ourselves or others is. We should be in the position where we only wish to request directions for how to live our best life. If you are to request dreams about an ex lover for example, that is simply wishful speaking and spiritual beings will not create dreams that only live to fulfill your fantasies. When we get insight and ideas regarding what we can do with our life, you'll feel this thirst for life come back. It directs us and inspires us. We are told what we need to do, now you have to be honest with yourself with what you need in order to live in truth. This becomes our reality, and it should manifest itself when you fall asleep.

Some people reading this can already see light and auras; they can already see spirits and see messages. Some people saw things as kids and just ignored it, and now no longer see anything as an adult. No matter where you have started, this is a way to develop further. Only once we know we are in a trance can we not be bored for hours waiting for signs, so once you have that down, end your nights like this.

Get comfortable wherever you are going to sleep. However you want to fall asleep, lay straight posture on your back with intention. For example, when I sleep I look like an Egyptian mummy, so imagine that kind of sleeping position (I've actually fallen asleep while meditating sitting upright, and I still remain asleep until the morning despite how uncomfortable it should be). Keep your eyes open and let yourself relax into a trance. Find a focal point you can focus on. Set your intentions with affirmations and ask for signs and messages from your guides and any being of light who is trying to help you ascend. Do this however you do it, prayer and religion or mindful intention; it is the same thing. When you find something to focus on the wall or ceiling as a focal point, you should see shapes begin to move and transform into something else. When we do this with intention, the answers will come to us in energetic ways. You'll notice your forehead begin to pulse and tighten, sometimes you'll even hear a "pop" between/above your eyes as your body begins to ache and your head spins and hurts. Unfortunately, energy channeling can really hurt (details on this in another story). Anytime I am filled with energy whether that be from meditating or performing reiki healing on someone, my hands swell up from the inside and feel like they will explode. By the time the healing is done I can feel the energy leave through my hands and into the person, as the person feels the energy enter them and rid them of pain. This is all common that I hear from every intuitive person I have ever met, and we all conclude that it gets better in time as your body learns to absorb and send energy with regular practice. This can all be expected feelings that come when you are beginning to utilize light energy, and especially as you are trying to put yourself to sleep. The exhaustion of spiritual energy activation is real, and it results in an amazingly refreshing sleep. So while you are laying there asking for details of anything you feel the need to ask, you will begin to see the light shapes, smoke-like energy, beings moving in the corners of your eyes, light flashes around you, temperature changes around your body feeling like hands grazing you, tingling sensations like pins and needles from your foot falling asleep from poor blood flow when your blood circulation was never cut off. Ringing of bells/static/ears going numb, often accompanied by feeling of a breeze going through you. These are all normal day to day things that we brush off, but comes all at once as we are trying to accept guidance. How much you feel will vary by person (if you have a medical condition this can be a symptom off, please focus on your advice from your doctor before assuming this is something energy related). This is where I will begin to see real pictures, real faces, real words start to flash across a white wall. While trusting what I see is truth from only higher powers, I am able to see stories unfold in front of me telling of future events to come, what to look for in my own life, my own signs and images I am about to see in my path as road marks of paths to take. I continue like this until my body gives out and I fall asleep exactly how I was laying, and I don't move the entire night. I used to toss and turn when I did fall asleep, as well as wake up every night at 2am for years. Now, I literally fall asleep. My eyes become too heavy to fight, and it feels as if my body is no longer my own to control. The sleep is inevitable, and once my eyelids begin to drop, I do not wake up until a minute before my alarm goes off (life's funny that way. I can't even get that extra minute?!).

This way of sleeping after receiving the messages continues the trance into my sleep allowed me to dream regularly for the first time in my life. My awake reality envisioning my future combines with my dream state. My dreams are prophecies, instructions, and most importantly they are directions for creations that I will be using throughout my career. Often times I get random messages inside of my dreams that come true the very next day in the exact way I dreamt them. This has given me confidence to share my knowledge with the world. Every person alive is capable of creating these dreams and messages themselves as well through mindfulness and faith. Early 2020 was my first time realizing I was hearing the voice of a spirit I was waiting for, and throughout the year have realized every time that I was hearing different souls for different reasons. Three years ago I was terrified of all spirits because I gave them so much power by being fearful of attracting negative entities that would haunt the crap out of me. Once I learned to balance the power of the light, I have not been touched by anything that is not of the light. This is a journey everyone can and must take, as the quality of our lives will depend on our effort put into our own spirit.

That's entirely all there is to mindfully fall asleep with intention to receive messages of purpose. Lay there in a trance and ask. Get into a trance by having daily chakra balancing routines and grounding yourself in the spirit. Stay in a trance understanding and accepting your messages until you are asleep; when you are asleep, you will more than likely continue to dream related to the same topic you were just discussing with your guides. If you don't, you'll find yourself waking up from a dead sleep fully recharged and ready for a new day full of purpose and learning.
