A mindful guide for those whose thoughts refuse to rest.

In a world that never stops spinning, many of us lie in bed at night with a restless mind—thoughts racing, body tense, unable to surrender to sleep. This guide was written for you.

“How To Calm An Overactive Mind Before Sleep”. It is a slow exhale. A gentle companion for those quiet, complicated moments before rest. Inspired by timeless Japanese philosophies and modern psychological insights, it offers a new way to approach the end of your day—not as a fight against your thoughts, but as a return to stillness.

Inside, you’ll find:

• Simple rituals and evening habits designed to soothe your nervous system and signal to your body that it’s safe to rest

• Breathing and grounding techniques that pull you gently out of your head and into your senses

• Reflections rooted in Japanese philosophy—from wabi-sabi to ma—that teach you to embrace imperfection, silence, and slowness

• Mind-tending practices to help you release the weight of your day, quiet self-criticism, and restore a sense of inner space

• Guidance for crafting your sleep environment, turning your bedroom into a place of calm, not just function

• And an afterword by Master Kuroda, sharing timeless wisdom from his own discipline of mindful living and rest

This guide is designed to be read slowly—one chapter at a time, or one idea at a time. It does not shout at you with productivity hacks or prescribe rigid sleep schedules. Instead, it whispers gentle truths and quiet invitations to return to your body, your breath, your stillness.

If you’ve ever felt like your mind is your own worst enemy at night… this book is your ally.
