Why this works
This meditation uses the ISO Principle — starting from where you are emotionally before guiding toward calm (de Witte et al., 2020). The ambient music runs at 60-80 BPM to match your resting heart rate, and the narration progressively slows in pitch and pace — a technique shown to reduce muscle tension (Bernstein & Borkovec, 2006).
