Welcome to Night Whispers,
A lullaby for your heart.
You are invited into a lullaby,
A gentle story for your heart.
It's a tale not meant to keep you awake,
But to carry you softly,
Tenderly into deep,
Nourishing sleep.
You don't need to listen closely,
And you don't need to follow each word.
Just let my voice become background.
Let it blur,
Let it fade.
This is your lullaby,
Your time to rest.
Settle deeply into your bed now.
Feel your pillow supporting your head.
Your blanket is cradling you in warmth.
The surface beneath you is holding you completely.
Take a long,
Slow inhale,
And release it gently like a sigh.
One more,
A deep,
Full breath in,
And an easy exhale,
Letting your day melt away.
Letting go of stress or tension,
Feeling your body soften.
There is nothing more to do,
Nothing more to carry.
Just rest,
Just listen,
Just drift.
Slowly bring your awareness to the rhythm of your breath.
Slow,
Steady,
Quiet.
If you like,
You may try a gentle pattern.
Inhale for a count of four,
Two,
Three,
Four,
And exhale for six,
Five,
Four,
Three,
Two,
One.
Continue with each exhale becoming longer,
Softer,
Calmer.
And once more,
Inhale for four,
Two,
Three,
Four,
And exhale for a count of six.
Now let's make it even simpler.
As you breathe in,
Just silently whisper one,
And as you breathe out,
Silently whisper two.
Inhale one,
Exhale two.
Continue at your own pace.
It's a lullaby of breath,
A rhythm of peace.
If any thoughts arise,
Just let them float away like clouds in the sky,
And return always to the simple count.
Inhale one,
Exhale two.
Now,
Let even the numbers fade.
Your breath flows on its own.
It's slow,
Gentle,
And free.
Good.
Now,
Visualize that you are walking along a quiet path at twilight.
The air is cool and sweet.
The last traces of daylight fade into blue,
And the first stars appear,
Shining softly above.
In your hand,
You carry a bright lantern.
Its glow is steady,
Warm,
And welcoming.
This light spills gently onto the path before you.
Each step you take is slow.
Each step is unhurried.
The earth beneath your feet is soft,
Familiar,
Safe.
Now,
The path bleeds into a meadow.
Tall grasses sway in the night air,
Whispering like a chorus of voices.
It's a song without words,
A lullaby only your heart can hear.
As you walk,
You notice a glow in your chest.
It's a song of hope.
It's a soft,
Rosy light,
Like the lantern's glow,
But it is coming from within you.
This light is calm.
This light is love.
This light is your heart's song.
Now,
The meadow opens into a clearing.
Above you,
The sky stretches endlessly.
It's velvet dark and filled with thousands of stars.
Each one is shining silently,
As if singing with light instead of sound.
You set your lantern down beside you,
And you lie down on the soft earth.
The grasses sway gently around you.
The stars are shimmering above,
And you listen to this night's lullaby.
Above,
One star shines brighter.
It begins to drift downward,
Gently,
Slowly,
As if carried by love.
The star hovers over your chest.
Its glow is soft pink,
Like rose quartz.
It pours light into your heart.
Your breath slows.
Your heartbeat steadies.
Your chest is glowing with peace.
And the lullaby whispers,
Rest now,
Dear heart,
Rest.
Rest now,
Dear heart,
Rest.
And another star begins to descend.
It floats down to your shoulders,
Radiating a silver blue glow.
This light spreads through your shoulders,
Into your arms,
Into your hands.
All the weight you've carried today melts away into the night.
And the lullaby repeats,
Rest now,
Dear heart,
Rest.
Rest now,
Dear heart,
Rest.
A third star drifts down,
Glowing golden like sunlight at dawn.
It settles at your belly,
Pouring warmth and ease into your center.
And now,
Your breath becomes even softer,
Your body even heavier,
And your spirit is completely at peace.
Rest now,
Dear heart,
Rest.
Rest now,
Dear heart,
Rest.
And now,
A star drifts lower,
Settling at your feet.
Its glow is red and steady,
Anchoring you to the earth,
Grounding you in safety.
Your legs grow heavy now.
Your whole body is rooted,
Supported.
Nothing to hold,
Nothing to do.
Rest now,
Dear heart,
Rest.
Rest now,
Dear heart,
Rest.
And then,
A fifth star floats down.
It's hovering above your whole body.
This star bursts gently into countless sparkles of light,
Reigning softly over you,
Wrapping you in a cocoon of shimmering peace.
Head to toes,
Front to back,
Inside and out,
You are now wrapped completely in this beautiful,
Bright,
Pure starlight.
Your safe,
Held love.
And the lullaby of the night sings on.
Rest now,
Dear heart,
Rest.
Rest now,
Dear heart,
Rest.
So,
Let the meadow fade now.
Let the fountain fade.
The stars above,
The glow within.
All that remains is stillness.
All that remains is peace.
All that remains is sleep.
Know that you are safe.
Know that you are loved.
Know that you are free.
Sleep is here,
It's wrapping around you.
Sleep is here,
Carrying you gently into deep sleep and deep rest.
Rest now,
Dear heart,
Rest.
Rest now,
Dear heart,
Rest.
Rest now,
Dear heart,
Rest.
Let this lullaby echo softly.
Rest now,
Dear heart,
Rest.
Rest now,
Dear heart,
Rest.
It is fading into silence.
Rest now,
Dear heart,
Rest.
Rest now,
Dear heart,
Rest.
As you drift deeper into beautiful sleep.
Good night,
My friend and sweet dreams.
