Let yourself settle down into your bed. Take a moment to adjust your pillows. Arrange your blankets to make yourself as comfortable as possible. As you possibly can. Allow your body to sink into the mattress. Feel the whole weight of your body being supported. Allow your eyelids to gently close. As your forehead smooths. You unclench your teeth. And soften your jaw. Gently drop the shoulders down away from your ears. Feel your arms getting heavy and still. The tension slides away from your hips. Your stomach softens. Your legs become heavy. And sink further still into the mattress. Supported. Held. Your entire body is shifting into rest and relax. You are safe to let go. Safe to soften. Safe to rest. Peaceful. Grounded. Calm. Feel the shift. To deep. Relaxation. Tension evaporating. Notice your breath. As you are gently breathing in. And out. Slow movement of your belly rising and falling. Now is your time for rest. The night sky is all around you. The soft blanket of stillness. It is a sanctuary. Where you can let your mind drift into calm. If any thoughts appear. Place them gently on a cloud. And watch them float away across the night sky. Stars shimmer gently. And you are aware of them shining down on you. Shining down. On your right foot. You feel a gentle warmth. As it spreads over your right ankle. Your lower right leg. Your right knee. Your upper right leg. As the star continues to shimmer. The warmth spreads over your left foot. Your left ankle. Your lower left leg. Your left knee. Your upper left leg. Your hips. Your abdomen. Leaving your entire lower body completely relaxed. The warm soothing glow. Continues into your belly. Softening the muscles. And then brown to your lower back. Easing away any tightness. And any remaining tension. Feel the warmth. Travel. Of the entire length of your spine. Into your chest. Across your shoulders. Down your upper right arm. Your right elbow. Your lower right arm. Your right wrist. And into each of the fingers of the right hand. Your upper left arm. Your left elbow. Your lower left arm. Your left wrist. And into each of the fingers. Of the left hand. The warmth from the shimmering star. Continues to spread to your throat. The back of your neck. Your chin. Your cheeks. Your forehead. The whole of your head. Your whole body is bathed in a comforting warmth. The warm feeling settles into every muscle. Your body feels heavy. A deep, Peaceful happiness. That lets you sink further still into the mattress. You are settling into stillness. There is nothing left to do. You can completely let go now. Let go into the deepest rest. You are free to sleep. Drifting. Floating. Fading into a peaceful. Nourishing. Sleep.
