The Magic Of The Lighthouse Sleep Meditation

Gently quiet your mind and focus on the peaceful stillness blanketing you and your world.

Stay here in the present.

Stay in the calm.

Stay in the quiet of the night and invite yourself to relax into it.

Now breathe,

And let your mind drift along with thoughts moving through like rolling waves.

Imagine yourself standing in a lighthouse with a world of velvety black all around you.

It's nighttime and so quiet that the night hums and the murmur of the waves echoes through the tower.

They are the only sounds,

And they fill you with peace.

Standing at the top of the lighthouse,

You gaze out into the sea,

A sea dark and mysterious like black obsidian,

But through the darkness,

A soft beam of light crosses the water in a circular motion,

Exposing the secret majesty of the sea.

You watch the light as it sets small sections of water aglow,

Just for a few seconds before it moves on.

You count the seconds between the dark and light,

Hypnotized by its beauty and rhythm.

You know that there is magic in both,

Power in both,

Magnificence in both,

Dark and light.

Imagine now,

Listening to the sea,

And its waves flow up and down,

Up and down,

Up and down,

And the sea whispers to you,

In between each roll of her waves,

What does she say?

You hear the sea singing ever so quietly,

It's like a lullaby softly rolls in you.

You gaze out into the watery blackness again.

This time,

Though,

You feel gratitude with your peace,

Gratitude because your lighthouse shines to help others.

After a while,

Your light is not the only light that illuminates the water of midnight.

Now,

A luminous full moon bursts forth from the clouds that had tried to cover it,

And as the lighthouse beam cuts across the water,

It meets with the silvery glow of the moon.

For a moment,

The sea illuminates like tinsel.

For hours,

You gaze at this symphony of light,

This dance of moon and lighthouse energy pirouetting across the water.

It's relaxing,

Mesmerizing,

Inspiring.

Soon the light from the moon dims,

And the beam of the lighthouse fades.

Across the sky,

The first ray of the sunlight pierces night's veil,

And as the sun rises,

Bringing life to the water and creatures in and around the water,

A new calm befalls the sea,

One of brilliant beauty and color,

One of life and peace and joy.

Namaste,

Beautiful.
