Hey,
How's it going everybody?
This is Scott Stabile.
David asked me to sit in and guide you on tonight's sleep meditation.
Coming at you from David's in-home studio in Boulder,
Colorado.
And he and I met a few years ago when he was interviewing me on his podcast for the launch of my book called Big Love.
And we've stayed good friends ever since.
So I'm happy to be with you tonight.
What you won't be able to expect from me are any of David's bad jokes.
So I apologize ahead of time for not supplying you with those.
Let's get comfortable.
Let's make sure we're in bed.
We're feeling good.
We're feeling easy.
We're feeling as comfortable as possible in our bodies.
I want you to take a couple deeper than usual breaths and just follow the inhale into your body.
And as you're inhaling,
Imagine just a wave of relaxing energy,
Of peaceful energy wash through your entire being.
Just let it move through every part of you.
And as you exhale,
Allow any anxiety,
Any frustration,
Any thoughts that are not right here right now in this moment to leave you.
Let's do that again with a nice deep inhale.
Let's breathe in total relaxation,
Total stillness,
Total ease into our beings.
Feel it move through our bodies.
And as you exhale,
Let go of anything that takes you out of that feeling of peace,
Any anxiety,
Any frustration.
You can do that again if you want,
Or you can start bringing your breath back to normal.
And just be comfortable in your body.
For our time together tonight,
We're going to focus on our heart center.
We're going to focus on love.
We're going to focus on the ocean of love,
The universe of love that is alive within us,
Discerning through our bodies,
Our beings all the time.
What I'd like you to do as you breathe in,
Take yourself into your heart,
Allow yourself to feel your heart,
To tune in to your heartbeat.
Allow yourself to acknowledge that in this heart center,
There is such deep peace and such deep love,
And that this love has always been,
Will always be,
And is right now available to you.
Really let yourself feel the energy of love.
It is moving through your being.
Really allow yourself to relax into this love as though you're floating in it.
If love is the sea,
A gentle sea with rolling waves,
And you are simply floating in this ocean of love with complete relaxation,
Feeling entirely held by this ocean of love that is within you,
That is outside of you,
That is everywhere.
Allow yourself to feel supported by this love,
To feel held by this love.
Allow yourself to feel cradled by this love,
Knowing that you are safe in this space,
In this moment,
In this love that exists within you always.
You are held and safe.
As you breathe into this love within you,
As you allow yourself to connect completely with this universe of love alive within you,
I want you to imagine what this space within you,
What this place in your heart might be communicating to you.
Just like you are beautiful exactly as you are.
I see you and I love you exactly as you are.
You are enough exactly as you are.
You are strong and vital and vibrant and compassionate and kind and held and free exactly as you are.
Let the words of your heart,
These ever loving words,
Let them wrap around you.
Allow them to hold you in their energy,
Still floating,
Still floating on the ocean of love in these words,
Caressing you,
Holding you,
Reminding you that no matter what,
You are love and you are loved.
As you sink even more deeply into your heart center,
Into this ocean of love within you,
As you sink ever more deeply into this holy,
Divine,
Beautiful place within you that is always there for you,
As you sink ever more deeply into this space,
I want you to hear yourself telling you the things that your heart is always ready to tell you.
Want you to allow yourself to say these words to yourself from yourself.
I love you.
I see you.
I honor you.
I believe in you.
I trust in you.
I have faith in you.
I love you so much.
There is nothing you can do that could ever prevent me from loving you exactly as you are.
There is nothing you could say that would ever prevent me from loving you exactly as you are.
I see your worth completely.
I recognize your divinity completely.
I am in awe of your beauty completely.
I love you.
I love you so much.
I believe so much in you.
Allow yourself to be held by these words.
Allow yourself to lull into the comfort of these words,
Being cradled by this universe of love that lives within you.
Being cradled by your own ability to recognize your beauty and worth and to love yourself from this heart centered place.
Being cradled by the understanding that this love that is so alive within you is alive everywhere in the universe and is available to us all the time,
Every day,
Every moment of every day.
As you fall into this love getting more and more relaxed,
Feeling your body become heavier in the most beautiful way,
So deeply comfortable and relaxed and sleepy.
As you fall into this space of love,
Know that you can carry this energy into your dreams so that this love will inform what it is you dream about.
And know that when you wake up tomorrow,
You'll be able to open your eyes and tune right in again to this love that is alive within you.
Knowing this,
You can go to sleep peacefully.
You can go to sleep with hope,
With surrender,
With trust,
With the deep,
Irreplaceable knowing that you are,
Always have been,
And always will be a beautiful being of love.
And that you are,
Always have been,
And always will be so deeply loved.
Wishing you the most beautiful sleep imaginable.
Good night and sweet dreams.
I love you.
