Take a slow breath in and let it fall out of you.
Let your body settle into whatever is holding you tonight.
Your bed,
Your blanket,
Your pillow.
Let them support you so you don't have to hold yourself anymore.
This is where the day loosens its grip.
Nothing has to be solved.
Nothing has to be managed.
Nothing has to be done.
You can arrive exactly as you are.
Tired or calm.
Heavy or light.
It's all okay.
You are safe here.
You are allowed to rest here.
Take another slow breath in.
And exhale even slower.
Let the day fade behind you.
Bring your attention to your shoulders.
Let them soften.
Let them lower.
Let them stop carrying the day.
Allow your neck to release.
The base of your skull loosening.
Like tension gently unwinding.
Soften your jaw.
Let your tongue rest.
Let your face relax.
Your forehead smooth.
Your eyes grow heavy.
Bring awareness to your chest.
Breathe easy.
Natural.
Let your stomach soften.
Nothing to hold in.
Nothing to brace against.
This is a safe moment.
Let the relaxation move through your hips.
Your thighs.
Your knees.
Your calves.
Your feet.
Your whole body is supported now.
It's held.
It's still.
Take one slow inhale.
And let it fall.
Imagine a quiet room.
Made only for rest.
The lighting is soft.
Warm.
Gentle.
There's nothing demanding your attention here.
No noise.
No urgency.
The air feels comfortable.
The temperature is just right.
You're supported by a peaceful bed or chair.
A blanket resting easily over you.
There are no expectations here.
Just quiet.
Just ease.
There's a candle nearby.
Not for romance.
But for calm.
A subtle warmth.
A sense of steadiness.
As you breathe,
The room feels steady with you.
Nothing's changing.
Nothing's pulling.
This is a place you can return anytime.
Let the pressure in your chest loosen.
Let the tension in your mind soften.
You don't need to replay the day.
You don't need to plan for tomorrow.
You don't need to be strong.
Right now,
You can rest.
Let your mind know it can pause.
Just for the night.
Silently say,
Nap now.
Right now,
I rest.
Let those words settle.
You are allowed to calm down.
You are allowed to release the day.
Your breathing is slower.
Your body is heavier.
In a more comfortable way.
Thoughts drifting further away.
Less important.
And less loud.
Let yourself drift to no effort.
No direction.
If a thought comes,
Let it pass.
It can wait.
Your body knows how to rest.
Your mind knows how to quiet.
You are safe.
You are supported.
Let awareness fade gently.
Like a light slowly dimming.
Until that remains is rest.
Good night.
Rest deeply.
Rest fully.
Rest peacefully.
Good night.
