I've tried sleep meditations before and they just make me angry. How is this different?

Sleep meditations that promise ‘you’ll drift off peacefully’ set you up for failure when you’re lying there wide awake 45 minutes later. That’s not how chronic insomnia works. StillMind’s approach is honest: sometimes you won’t fall asleep. Sometimes meditation won’t help tonight. That’s insomnia, not your fault. The sessions focus on reducing the panic of being awake, not guaranteeing sleep. No sleep hygiene lectures about blue light and caffeine (you already know). No promises that relaxation equals sleep (it doesn’t for chronic insomnia). Just acknowledgment that 3am is hard, racing thoughts are real, and worrying about not sleeping makes it worse. The goal is making being awake less distressing, not forcing sleep to happen.
