Chibs Okereke Sleep Meditations

This is a post for a particular kind of listener.

Some of you come here at night because the day won't let go of you. You held it all together, you got everything done, and then your mind started up the moment the room went quiet.

I've spent years building something for the daytime side of that. It opens on Thursday, and I'll tell you about it here.

If the meditations are what you need, they're not going anywhere. That is more than enough, always.

But I'm curious. Which one is you?

ps. I want to keep this channel sleep meditation focused, so I don't really want to start posting shorts here. I'm going to be posting sleep related reels on my instagram soon tho, so come follow me over there if you want to learn more about sleep, stress, exhaustion, along with tips and tools to help with all of them - www.instagram.com/chibs.co/ 💙

Awake at 3am again?

Not fully awake. Not fully asleep.

Just... there. Wondering why your body forgot how to do the thing it's done every night of your life.

Brand new... Awake at 3am Again? Sleep Hypnosis to Drift Back Down

This session is designed specifically for those middle-of-the-night wake-ups when trying harder to sleep only seems to make things worse.

We use gentle body awareness, progressive relaxation, and slow hypnotic guidance to help the nervous system stop fighting wakefulness and gradually settle back into rest.

As the body softens, feelings of warmth, heaviness, and safety are gently reinforced... before soft rain sounds continue quietly in the background to help carry you back into sleep.

When you wake at 3am, what's usually happening?

A) My mind starts planning
B) I replay conversations or worries
C) My body feels anxious or alert
D) No clear reason... I'm just awake

Just drop A, B, C, or D below.

Much love,
Chibs 💙

A little while ago, I shared something with you. Co-Lab FM

A new project I'd been building quietly behind the scenes... something that felt important to bring into the world, especially now.

A collaboration between myself and Aaron Bannie, where we create what we call Functional Meditation... sessions designed for the real moments in life, moments other than sleep.

We just crossed 1,000 subscribers, so I want to thank you for making your way over there!

If you haven't visited yet... here's where to find us:

Maybe you're not tired because of today.

Maybe you're tired from carrying yesterday.
And last week.
And all the things you never really got to put down

Brand new... You're Allowed to Let It Go Now | Subconscious Sleep Hypnosis for Emotional Release

This session isn't about figuring out what you're carrying.

It's about creating enough safety that your body can finally stop holding it so tightly.

We move slowly through the places we tend to store emotional weight... the jaw, the throat, the chest, the belly... softening layer by layer, allowing the body to begin releasing what it no longer needs to hold onto.

You don't need to name it.
You don't need to understand it.
You don't need to force anything to happen.

Just soften.

Much love,
Chibs 💙

A strange thing happens when we can't sleep…

We start treating every thought like it needs our attention.

Brand new... How to Fall Asleep When Your Mind Won't Stop | Sleep Hypnosis

This session isn't about getting rid of the thoughts.

It's about learning that you don't have to go with every single one of them.

Through gentle body awareness, a countdown into deeper rest, and soft affirmations, we gradually give the body permission to sleep... even while the mind is still catching up.

Much love,
Chibs 💙

If you've spent today being strong for everyone else…

and now you're lying here... still braced... still half on duty…

this is for you.

Brand new... Let Tonight Be Kind to You | Vagus Nerve Sleep Meditation to Feel Safe

This one is for the people who are very good at looking after everyone else... and not so good at letting anyone look after them.

We slow the breath down using vagus nerve breathing... and take a gentle walk through the whole body, softening as we go. And along the way... you get to be the one who's cared for.

The one who's held. For once.

Gentle affirmations sit quietly in the background... while soft 528Hz music helps maintain a sense of calm and safety.

If someone you love could use a little more kindness tonight... feel free to pass this on 💙

Much love,
Chibs 💙

P.S. Sometimes the voice that keeps us on duty all day isn't other people... it's our own inner critic. If you've been finding it hard to give yourself the same kindness you give everyone else, we've got a guided meditation for self-acceptance over on CoLab FM that might help.

Chibs Okereke Sleep Meditations

If all day you've been the one holding everything together, and if no one has held you in a long time, then tonight’s hypnosis is for you 😊

https://youtu.be/G75Azg2rF8w

It’s called “Held All Night”, and it’s designed to make you feel safe and feel like you’ve been wrapped in Warmth.

This one moves slowly... gently... through breath, through warmth, through the kind of deep safety that lets the nervous system finally stop keeping watch.

The affirmations drift softly in the background through the night... with pink noise carrying you into deeper and deeper rest.

For a little while... you can let yourself be held too.

Much love,
Chibs 💙

What if the answer tonight wasn't to hold on a little longer…

But to let yourself float for a while.

https://youtu.be/qjdNCOX4vWs

Brand new… Feel Nothing But Floating Bliss | For Exhausted Minds and Bodies

So many of us spend our days carrying things.

Responsibilities. Decisions. Pressure. Other people's needs.

This session is an invitation to put all of that down.

Through gentle hypnosis, full-body relaxation, and soft 417Hz tones, we gradually move from heaviness into spaciousness... from effort into ease... from carrying everything to being carried.

Not fixing. Not pushing.

Just floating.

Much love,
Chibs 💙

Ps. Sometimes the pressure starts long before our head hits the pillow. If you've been feeling mentally overloaded during the day too, we've got a short Midday Reset over on CoLab FM to help create a little space before it follows you into the evening https://youtu.be/Kjh47RlVGmk?si=8b-4X...

You asked for it... an all-night version of Melt Into the Bed.

https://youtu.be/_CrQ0K8uzSQ

The original Melt Into the Bed has been one of your favourites... so many views, and so many lovely comments. The thing a lot of you asked for was a version that carries you all the way through the night. So here it is.

One little change on this one (thanks to some of your comments on my last overnight session)... the volume of my voice comes down even sooner, and then keeps fading even quieter and quieter through the night, much more quickly than before.

Because this is a hypnosis, it doesn't need to be loud to reach you. It can stay there in the background while you sleep, getting softer as the night goes on.

After the initial hypnosis is complete, soft affirmations carry on quietly alongside some calming 432 Hz music, so you're supported right through till morning.

If sleep has felt hard lately, take this at your own pace. There's nothing to get right. I'd love to know how this version feels for you... and do let me know if it ever fades too quiet, so I can get the balance just right.

Much love,
Chibs 💙

I made this vagus nerve sleep meditation for the nights when you feel completely drained… but your system still won’t fully switch off.

https://youtu.be/Hu2p8gTKcEQ

Brand new… Vagus Nerve Sleep Meditation | The One for When You're Completely Drained

This session uses gentle vagus nerve breathing, grounding body awareness, and slow guidance to help the body gradually come out of stress mode… without trying to force sleep.
We soften tension through the body… slow the breath… and create space for your system to finally stop holding so much.

The affirmations gradually fade into the background… with soft pink noise continuing quietly through the night for deeper rest.

You don’t need to follow every word here… you can simply let the voice and sound hold you while your body settles.

Much love,
Chibs 💙

ps. the picture has nothing to do with the meditation, but it’s my nephew’s first birthday, and I love him, so he gets a birthday shout out!! 🥰
