Hello little one,
All tucked in tight,
Let's take a breath in the hush of the night.
Let the stars above shine their soft glowing light and wrap you in wonder until morning's first sight.
Take a gentle breath in through your nose.
Now,
Let it go,
Like a soft sigh.
Let's do that again,
Breathe in slowly,
Like you're smelling a flower.
And breathe out softly,
Like you're blowing on a candle.
One more time,
In,
Soft and deep,
Out,
Slow and easy.
Feel your body beginning to relax,
Let your arms rest,
Let your legs feel heavy,
Let your tummy be soft,
Let your jaw be loose,
Even your toes can wiggle,
And then be still.
Now imagine the sky above you,
Way up high,
There's a big beautiful blanket made of stars.
Each star is gentle and glowing,
Some shimmer like diamonds,
Some glow like tiny lanterns in the dark,
They are here just for you.
With every breath in,
The blanket floats a little closer,
With every breath out,
You feel more relaxed.
Breathe in the starlight,
Breathe out any thoughts.
Now the blanket touches your shoulders,
It wraps softly around your chest,
Your back,
It flows gently over your arms,
Your legs,
Your toes,
All the way down to your feet.
This is a magic blanket,
Made of calm,
Made of dreams,
Made of love.
It knows just how to help you sleep.
Now imagine that every breath you take fills you with soft starlight,
And every time you breathe out,
The day melts away.
Breathe in,
Peace,
Breathe out,
Stillness,
Breathe in,
Stars,
Breathe out,
Everything you don't need.
If any thoughts come by,
Just let them float past like clouds in the night sky,
You don't have to follow them,
Just breathe.
Keep the stars glowing gently all around you,
You are safe,
You are held,
You are ready to rest.
Now imagine yourself drifting in a gentle boat made of moonlight,
Floating through the night sky,
Wrapped in your blanket of stars.
The stars hum a lullaby just for you,
As you drift,
You dream.
Sleep well little star,
You are wrapped in light,
And held in love.
I'll be here,
Watching the sky with you.
