Heal Inflammation: Soothing Sleep Meditation for Pain Relief & Deep Relaxation

[@MichellesSanctuary]

Sometimes I find that listening to pain and inflammation videos are so helpful even when I feel fine. Unfortunately, so often all my stress likes to find a home in my right hip where it festers. But a good night's sleep can speed up the healing process. Of course sleeping is all the more difficult when pain moves in, but hopefully this video can offer some help with that. The image is from a random walk I took from the Portland, ME airport to a lovely yoga studio and always gives me a sense of wonder when beauty can just pop up around the corner, completely unexpected.

Michelle's Sanctuary: Hypnosis & Meditation Thanks Michelle. Might I suggest trying a Pelvic Health Physio, if you can't figure out how to shift that hip problem. I'm astounded at the therapy I've received for chronic, vicious bladder/pelvic pain, which included major shift in the entire pelvic girdle muscle system, including deep hip stuff. Thank you for your lovely, lovely channel. Beautiful work.

[@MichellesSanctuary]

Thank you, Carol! I will definitely look into this. It's such a complex system that does not release tension easily! I appreciate your kind words and advice!

[@dorothyjoycassilles1056]

I have issues with my right hip as well. I have a shorter right leg so the hip joint and muscles etc have more work to do than my left. I will be praying for you Michelle.

[@rachelcaldwell330]

Thank you for sharing this to help ALL ease their inflammation to release the painful symptoms ❤ Namaste 🙏

[@the1972bulldog]

Yep, meditation has helped me for 13 years come Thursday 9th June. Love your meditation videos and if there's pain in the header, I've definitely listened to it over the years so Thank You Michelle for ALL You do 🙏 It's so much appreciated. Quick edit. Minesvin my spne and my hips but just turning 50, I got all the itis's lol, arthritis, bursitis and tendinitis. They're like naughty triplets when the Rain or the Extreme cold comes down here in the South East. Surgeries, well more surgeries on the Horizon so Hopefully it all works out but I'm a realist, Anyway Lots of Love and Light from Me Down Under here in Australia Beautiful as Always ❤️🙌♈️

[@SamSneed-th4du]

Woke up with my.pain from a consistent minimum 4/10 to NOTHING. Haven't felt zero pain without taking max amount of NSAIDS for months. Thank you for making these videos 🙏🤍

[@MichellesSanctuary]

I'm so happy for this, Sam, and I hope you are feeling better now. Happy to help in any way.

[@janeweinstein3615]

I as well.

[@janeweinstein3615]

I take too much med.

[@jackiesullivan6755]

I stumbled upon this video during a migraine. I Can’t thank you enough. Your soothing voice and your soothing words have helped me so so much. Thank you

[@MichellesSanctuary]

I'm so glad it helped-- and I hope those migraines stay away (or that you are able to soothe them whenever you listen to this).

[@dorothyjoycassilles1056]

Im praying for you, whoever listens to this beautiful meditation and of course you Michelle

[@MichellesSanctuary]

Thank you, Dorothy!

[@dorothyjoycassilles1056]

Ive been listening to you almost every night for the last two years Michelle. Your meditations make my life better as i have a list of chronic health issues including pain.

[@krismarsh6978]

I wish you peace.

[@Hakausu]

I have been having severe hip pain at night, from arthritis but a change in sleeping position and listening to this actually erased the pain over 2 hrs last night (I fell asleep). I have used it before for other reasons, just because I am older and have various aches and cannot take pain meds. WOW, it is amazing. I have had a lot of medical training and specific training in relaxation and the mind-body connection and can see first hand now how such meditations work!

[@MichellesSanctuary]

First, I am so sorry you’re dealing with this pain. I’ve struggled with hip pain at times and it can be so disruptive for sleep. I’m so grateful this helped you! The mind-body connection is truly a powerful thing. 💜

[@susanripton1327]

Love this one.... Just what the Dr ordered too... I've come off all pain meds in the hope that I can rewire brain... Neuroplasticity... Or something like that... So I have listened to pretty much 100% of your videos... Every night now for months. To relax... To focus on positivity and to get cosy and now release pain.. I hope you have loads more videos to come,!!!!! I love the cosy cottage ones... Where I am. Getting into snuggly clothes.. And relaxing into sofa or bed... And any pain ones would be good too. My pain consultant seems to now think mindfulness is the key... (I'm In UK) anyway love them all well done.. Sue

[@larrymarcus3176]

Neuroplasticity is about how our brains can form new neurological pathways that sends signals through a different pathway to accomplish the same effect. It’s primarily seen in young developing brains and when a person has damage to their brain like a meningococcal infection or mild concussion. Pain management is a different ball game. The idea is to change the effect of pain pathways that have become habituated. Like a phantom pain when someone looses a leg or arm. It’s sort of like ones yin and Yang gets confused. Fibromyalgia can have this effect where there is no evidence of observable inflammation but severe pain exists. It’s pretty theoretical which is why mindfulness or acupuncture or myofacial trigger point therapy can help. Pain meds either block pain receptors in the brain like narcotics or Bloch the creation of cytokines like nsaids. If you use them frequently you get reduced effect and need more or you can get rebound effect where you have more pain when they wear off. Not knowing wesr your pain is or what it’s cause is trying all kinds of alternatives including this meditation can help as can heat or cold alternating. Using topical stuff including arnica or menthol which can fake out pain signals. Wheatgrass balm is good too as is r we epson salt soaks magnesium relaxes nerves including if you use it orally but check with doctor first skin absorption is not toxic but oral may not be good for you including what salt form you use. If this meditation helps try it while getting a soft massage. I find Marx brothers movies or anything that makes me laugh certainly makes pain less painful. Some people love cbd oil but I’m not a fan of cannibis. There are tons of drugs that can help that are not directly pain meds but all have side effects. You can ask your pain doc about them they include tca antidepressants gabapentin and a bunch of others. Hope you find some relief.

[@dotcassilles1488]

@larrymarcus.... Thankyou for listing off different alternatives. My doctor suspects that I have hypermobility or Ehlers Danlos syndrome as most of my joints bend more than they should. EDS can impact every area of the body as it affects the collagen. I'm already diagnosed with Fibromyalgia, TMJD, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, bursitis, leg length difference, and a few other chronic health challenges. My doctor and I are working together and suspect I also have crohn's disease (tummy problems and chronic nausea) and possibly adhd. I need all help I can get to reduce pain and inflammation, to find comfort and help me get stuff done. Blessings from South Eastern Australia, Dot

[@michellequenneville3506]

Lovely mantras, to have positive day, Thank you for this meditation,

[@nicolelee6591]

You’re still helping me with this video four years later!! ❤

[@MichellesSanctuary]

I'm so glad your're still here listening! 💜

[@rachelbelkmoyar4158]

I've come back to this meditation several times when I'm in pain or holding a lot of tension and it is so helpful and calming.

[@MichellesSanctuary]

I hope this one continues to help! 💜

[@JourneyToHappinezzz]

I remember tumbling into your pain release meditation 5 years ago, now it still works like wonders. I’m in so much pain tonight that I wish I could go back in time 5 years ago. Thank you for your soothing voice ❤ precious video!

[@MichellesSanctuary]

I'm so glad it still works but I hate that you are dealing with pain. I hope you are feeling better. I've been dealing with pain recently and during a gentle yoga practice was reminded it's part of life, but how we approach it means everything.

[@sarahellison-leach2077]

Listen also to Moza Morph subliminal for pain relief.. I found works. I recently sprained my ankle that's reason looking for these vids. Moza Morph is doctor and excellent subliminal maker She also has excellent ones for healing All good wishes for your healing from Cornwall UK

[@krismarsh6978]

This meditation is a lovely gift. Thank you dear Michelle. 💙

[@MichellesSanctuary]

I'm so glad it resonates. 💜

[@TanyaMoi]

This meditation is so important and effective. I think it's another one that would benefit from a new recording with the techniques you have perfected over the years. It is very helpful and, though I missed the 'it's time to dream away' I love the sweet way you said goodnight here. 😊

[@MichellesSanctuary]

I'll have to revisit soon!

[@beebatman6608]

Hi Michelle! This is so helpful and soothing. Thank you so much for all your other wonderful videos. Looking forward to sleeping better and feeling refreshed in the morning's. 💖😴🙏

[@MichellesSanctuary]

Thank you-- I hope that it helps whenever you need it and that you feel better!

[@julenewilliams2612]

Thank you again Michelle for a wonderful night's rest and making me just a little more sane. Bless you!

[@MichellesSanctuary]

Thank you, Julie! I want that to be my mission: Spreading Sanity! I'm glad this brought you rest!

[@dotcassilles1488]

I still return to listen to this powerful meditation often. It helps so much with chronic pain in my right hip and also helps me to relax when I'm experiencing tension and pain of a flare-up in TMJ or TMD pain (my jaw and facial nerves were damaged in 1999). The slow release of tension, relaxation of my entire body and the way my repetitive thoughts slow and let go is such a relief. Blessings, Dot

[@MichellesSanctuary]

I’m so glad this is helping and I’m sorry for your pain! May you continue to find this relaxing- 💜💜💜

[@dale9724]

Really helpful. Thank you.

[@MichellesSanctuary]

Glad it was helpful! Hope you are feeling better!

[@maxpower78-15]

You deserve a good comment and a thums up. I enjoy the content you create, and thanks

[@MichellesSanctuary]

Thank you so much, Daniel!

[@yonitznkc]

I ❤️ this one (again)! I like your speaking style best, and the screen going dark actually helps concentrate upon your voice better. I’m looking forward to your shorter ‘daytime talks’ for driving to work.👍🏼 🕊️💕

[@MichellesSanctuary]

Wow, thank you! There will be many to come-- any specific topics you want me to focus on?

[@yonitznkc]

Hmm. But of course. My AM drive is rather easy at 72-82-min., however, the drive home at 4PM is usually 90-140-min. (a triggering experience). I sadly can’t make my local yoga classes as did last year, and think I need late PM classes nearer to work (maybe to include a gym/swimming pool?). I def need a reset RIGHT after work, and perhaps the drive will be easier/faster between 6:30-7:30 PM, and I’d be better balance whilst driving.

[@helenanatiello1392]

Thank you for this 🙏🙏❤️🙏🙏✨✨✨💫💫💫 !!!

[@MichellesSanctuary]

My pleasure! 💜🌙🌸

[@juniperonthemoon]

Greetings to you Michelle ❤thank you so much for this powerful meditation. I have been getting such pain in my lower back,right hip and leg.

This meditation is so healing and took me so deep into well being❤when I saw this video posted i knew straight away that it was going to help me ❤this is just what I needed.

[@anncollingwood830]

Thank you.

[@MichellesSanctuary]

Hope you are feeling better!

[@lmcedwards669]

Thank you, Michelle. I loved the turquoise gel. 💖

[@MichellesSanctuary]

I'm so glad that it worked--- that is a visual I've used to soothe myself when in pain. 💜

[@john45227]

I might not have inflammation but it sure is good to help me sleep. Good work Michelle

[@MichellesSanctuary]

So glad! Sometimes I listen to pain relief meditations for sleep when I have absolutely no pain. They seem to still have a real relaxing effect. Wishing you nights of great sleep to come.

[@kaf890890]

Thanks again for your help and comfort.

[@victoriarosales4645]

Can't wait to go to sleep tonight!!

[@jojohellfire6415]

I suffer from chronic wide spread pain throughout my body every moment day and night, but I was bathing and I fell asleep for 10 minutes lol. Although this helped a lot

[@MichellesSanctuary]

Wow-- I'm glad you were able to relax enough to sleep. I am so sorry that you have such chronic pain and I hope that this can help, even if only in increments of ten minutes of sleep. 💜

[@LilD-Beats]

I put this on last night because my stomach felt bruised. I woke up and pain had gone i dont no how u do it michelle but it worked thanks 😉

[@MichellesSanctuary]

That's amazing! Our minds are pretty powerful. Especially when we start tweaking them a little!

[@LilD-Beats]

Michelle's Sanctuary: Hypnosis & Meditation they sure are. Carnt wait for more content from u 😉

[@jacobsolin1340]

This is great Maybe you can do a hypnosis where your in a tsunami Love this background music

[@cheypam]

If you like this guided meditation by Michelle, I personally recommend listening to this pain related meditation of hers kzbin.info/www/bejne/fmHQXnqCZ6aWn9U

[@nosrslylol4556]

Okay I just have to ask... Were you referring to Icyhot/BioFreeze when you were talking about a tealish-blue gel that had a mentholated cooling effect? Because that's all I could think of. Not trying to be rude but I couldn't finish this one because I kept thinking "Hmmm... If she's having me imagining biofreeze or pain cream going over my sore areas, I have some, yeah, maybe that's a good idea" and then I got up to put some on...now I'm up 😂 Edited to add: I actually love most of your videos, most of them really help me wind down and fall asleep, just sometimes there are little things like that I notice!

[@MichellesSanctuary]

Thanks for the feedback-- I wasn't thinking of this-- although it's a great option and works! I think when I wrote it I was hoping for something even more powerful and lasting. Anything to soothe-- and blue is so soothing. Funny to read this comment as I actually only tried BioFreeze for the first time ever this week (and as you can tell this was written a long time ago). 💜
