Good evening and welcome.
Let's begin our sleep meditation for the night.
Close your eyes and take a breath,
A deep,
Steady breath that pulls you inward toward a quiet you've been searching for.
Feel the softness of your bed beneath you,
The way it holds you and cradles you without asking anything of you.
Let your body sink into it,
Piece by piece,
Softening,
Relaxing.
Feel the weight of your legs give way.
Feel the release of your shoulders as they loosen and soften.
Feel your hands,
Soft and still,
Resting peacefully at your sides.
And now bring your attention inward.
Somewhere deep inside,
There is a spark,
A flicker of light that's been waiting for you.
It's small but steady.
Maybe it's been hidden behind your worries,
Your plans,
The noise of the day,
But it's there,
Waiting patiently.
This light is yours,
It's always been yours,
Right here.
Take another slow breath in and imagine this spark catching as though the air you're breathing is awakening it,
Feeding it.
Feel this flicker grow,
Soft and golden,
Like a firefly glowing in the quiet night.
With each breath,
The spark grows brighter,
Stronger,
Stretching gently into the space around it.
This isn't just light,
It's alive,
It swirls and dances,
Playful and free,
Like a thread of silk weaving through the air inside of you.
This light knows you,
It knows your joys,
Your fears,
Your weariness,
And with every twist and turn,
It carries away the heaviness you've been holding.
Feel it move,
Flowing up through your chest,
Feel it brush against your heart,
Gently clearing the fog and leaving behind a sense of lightness,
Of calm,
Of balance.
The light spirals through your arms and down to your fingertips,
Swirling in patterns that feel like whispers of a language only you can understand.
It moves into your belly,
Soft and soothing,
Calming the tension and grounding you.
Feel it drift down through your legs,
Circling your knees,
Flowing all the way to your toes,
Wrapping you in a sense of steadiness.
This isn't just any light,
This is your light,
The part of you that's untouchable,
Unshaken by the outside world.
Feel it now,
Filling every corner of your body.
It glows brighter,
Humming softly like the low,
Comforting notes of a song.
And as it hums,
It smooths the edges of anything rough within you.
This light doesn't ask for your effort,
It doesn't need your control,
It simply is.
Flowing,
Alive,
And steady.
With each breath,
Feel the balance this light brings.
It's pulling you back to yourself,
Back to the steady rhythm of who you are.
You don't have to search for peace tonight,
It's already here.
It's been here all along,
Illuminating the way back to yourself.
And as you drift closer to sleep,
Feel your light begin to soften,
Curling inward,
Not disappearing,
Just resting.
The quiet,
Steady presence that will hold you through the night.
Breathe deeply,
And feel the steadiness within you.
Feel the calm,
Feel the light of who you are.
Balance,
Whole,
At peace.
Namaste,
Beautiful.
