Sleep,
Deeply,
Beautiful soul.
Sleep is a gift,
A sacred offering to your body,
Your mind and your soul.
It's a time of renewal,
Where the weight of the day dissolves and you return home to yourself.
Allow yourself now to move away from the noise of the world and into the soft embrace of rest,
Where healing energy flows effortlessly through you.
In this moment,
Remind yourself that we cannot change a fixed past and we can give ourselves permission to be absolutely present in this calm and sacred place of sleep.
Close your eyes now and take a slow,
Steady breath in and open the mouth and exhale completely.
As you breathe,
Feel the remnants of the day lingering in your body,
The conversations,
The tasks,
The external noise and chatter.
You acknowledge all that has been,
All that you have done and with every exhale,
Release them one by one,
Like leaves drifting down a quiet stream.
Feel the tension in your shoulders melt away and the thoughts that may still be circling in your mind begin to slow down.
The chatter of the world grows distant,
Like echoes fading into the horizon.
Imagine yourself now,
Standing at the edge of a vast,
Open sky at twilight.
The last golden light of the day softens into a deep indigo,
Stars beginning to twinkle.
The air is cool,
Gentle and soothing.
A deep stillness surrounds you now,
A sense of calm begins to unfurl within you,
As if the universe itself is holding you in its embrace.
With each breath,
You step deeper into this sacred space of rest.
A warm,
Velvety darkness cradles you,
Inviting you to surrender.
You are safe,
And you are held.
Like a river flowing effortlessly to the sea,
You allow yourself to drift.
Drifting away from the weight of expectations,
Drifting away from the need to do,
Or to solve,
Or to think.
You are simply here now,
In the quiet rhythm of your breath,
In the gentle pulse of the night.
Your body softens,
Dissolving into the vast expanse of peace.
Your mind unwinds,
Releasing the need to hold on.
Your soul stretches out,
Weightless and free,
Floating in the infinite embrace of the universe.
Now imagine a soft,
Luminous light flowing down from above,
A golden glow filled with warmth,
Serenity,
And love.
This light is pure healing,
And inviting a flowing sense of deep healing,
Peace,
And rest within you.
As the light touches your skin,
You feel its warmth melt into you,
Moving through your body like liquid peace.
The light flows through your forehead,
Washing away lingering thoughts.
Down through your shoulders,
Releasing all that you no longer need to carry now.
The light flows to your heart,
Softens around your chest,
And your breath deepens.
Your entire being bathed in gentle,
Healing light.
And as you sleep,
Your body will renew itself.
Every cell,
Every muscle,
Every part of you will be infused with rest and peace.
You do not need to force this process.
It is the gift of sleep,
A gift given freely,
A gift you fully receive.
Watching the sun move down,
And imagine yourself lying beneath the vast night sky,
Wrapped in the soft glow of the moonlight.
Even more stars shimmering like tiny lanterns above you now,
Guiding you deeper into the dream world.
Feel yourself sinking,
And sinking,
And sinking into the dark,
Soft embrace of sleep.
Sinking,
And sinking into the stillness of the night.
Sinking,
And sinking into the infinite expanse of peace within you.
There is nothing to do.
There is nothing to hold on to.
There is nothing to fix.
There is only this moment.
There is only this breath.
There is only deep,
Peaceful rest.
You are safe.
You are loved.
You are whole.
As you drift,
Completely into sleep,
Allow these words to settle into your heart.
I surrender to the peace of this night.
Sleep is my gift,
My sanctuary,
My place of healing.
As I sleep,
My body restores,
My mind resets,
My soul is at peace.
I trust in the rhythm of rest,
Knowing that all is well.
I am safe.
I am loved.
I am at peace.
Let go even further now.
Let sleep take you.
Let dreams cradle you.
As you drift,
Wrapped in the warmth of the universe,
Know that you are exactly where you are meant to be.
Bathed in moonlight,
Watched over by the stars.
And flowing in the soft rhythm of your breath.
The back of your body dropping deeper into the bed.
Your belly and your chest rising and falling slowly.
Inhaling softly.
Exhaling softly.
Relaxing your head,
Your face,
Your eyes,
Your jaw.
Shoulders dropping.
Your arms and hands releasing tension,
Leaving only ease.
Peace and rest flowing all the way through your body to your hips,
Your legs,
And all the way down to your feet and your toes,
Grounding you in stillness.
And rest.
Rest now,
Beautiful soul.
This cocoon of serenity holding you.
You are safe.
You are whole.
Sleep is here to heal you.
Your body is heavy,
Yet weightless.
Your mind is quiet,
Yet aware.
Your soul is at peace,
Floating effortlessly into the dream world.
There is nothing to do.
Nothing to hold on to.
Nothing to fix.
Only this moment.
Only this breath.
Only sleep.
Only rest.
Dear beautiful soul,
Sleep deeply.
Rest well.
Namaste.
