Depression, Chronic Pain, and Insomnia (Guided Audio Meditation)
This extended guided meditation, created by Dr. Jeffrey Bone, is designed for those who struggle with the combined weight of depression, chronic pain, and sleepless nights. The script begins with grounding practices to settle the nervous system, easing the restlessness that often comes with pain and low mood. From there, it gently guides listeners into body-based awareness, acknowledging heaviness, aches, and fatigue without judgment, while introducing imagery that supports compassion and release.
Throughout the meditation, themes of acceptance, allowing, and softening are woven in, helping to loosen the grip of negative self-talk and despair. Moments of guided reflection encourage listeners to recognize their inherent worth, even in the presence of suffering. The audio closes with a gradual shift toward spaciousness and quiet, offering the mind and body a chance to rest more fully, even if pain and depression remain.
This script is not about curing depression or erasing pain, it is about creating a safe, compassionate container for both body and mind, offering relief, resilience, and the possibility of restorative sleep.
