And now,
Just for a minute.
For a minute,
Sit on the edge of your bed,
Resting comfortably.
And take a deep breath in.
And now exhale.
Breathe in.
Breathe out.
And now,
What I want you to do is lie down and get into your most comfortable sleeping position.
And now,
Close your eyes.
And breathe in deeply.
And now exhale fully,
Relaxing.
With each breath you take,
Feel the tension melting away.
And now,
Bring your awareness to your body.
Give yourself permission to fully surrender,
To rest deeply,
To be at peace.
And now bring your awareness to your body.
And feel the mattress beneath you,
Supporting you.
Knowing that you are fully supported by the mattress.
Realize that you don't have to do anything from now on.
Just relax.
Allowing your body to sink deeper and deeper into the mattress,
Absorbing your body,
Supporting you,
Fully and completely.
Now,
Just be aware of my voice and breathe.
And now,
Let's journey in.
Right now,
As you begin to drift off to sleep,
Begin to notice how your body is slowing down.
As though everything is beginning to move in slow motion.
And notice,
With every word you hear,
How you feel more and more relaxed.
As you sink deeper and deeper into your warm,
Soft bed.
And you are becoming more and more relaxed.
My body is becoming more and more relaxed.
And my mind is becoming clearer and clearer.
I feel such a deep sense of peace and gratitude.
I now fill my mind with pictures to relax even more deeply.
I imagine myself lying in a hammock on a beautiful beach.
With some towering,
Yet very elegant,
Lush green palm trees.
On a warm,
Mellow summer night.
Feeling completely safe.
I relax with ease.
Slowly,
Slowly breathing in.
Filling my lungs completely.
Now slowly exhaling any remaining tension.
Letting go completely.
Relaxing fully.
Allowing my breathing to fall into a natural rhythm.
Feeling fully supported.
As the soft mesh cloth swaddles my body securely in its embrace.
Listening to this soft,
Gentle,
Alluring music.
Just swaying.
Relaxing and letting go.
Imagining the moonlight gracefully falling upon me from between the paradise green palm leaves.
Feeling back and forth.
Relaxing.
Feeling my body let go.
Relaxing completely.
As the scent of the summer-infused breeze fills my nose.
Gently swinging back and forth in the hammock.
Back and forth.
Back and forth.
Back and forth.
Noticing the trees as they too sway in the warm breeze.
Feeling calm,
Safe and peaceful.
I am free of thoughts and ideas.
Just enjoying the feeling of gently swaying back and forth.
Feeling still inside.
Relaxed and carefree.
Feeling now that my body is getting heavier and heavier.
Easily drifting off now.
I fall into a peaceful night's sleep.
Trusting my inner light to guide me.
I fall asleep easily.
I feel warm,
Peaceful in its soothing embrace.
A golden healing light,
A magical sleep bone falls from the night sky,
Dusting my body and landing on my eyelids.
Heavier and heavier.
Barely able to stay awake.
And drifting,
Drifting off with ease.
As I awaken in the morning,
I am brimming with energy and overflowing with joy.
I am guided in my every step,
My spirit.
My confidence is soaring.
My creative energy surges through me,
Leading me to new and brilliant ideas.
My thoughts are filled with positivity.
My life is plentiful with prosperity.
I wake up with strength in my heart and clarity of mind.
I am blessed.
My body is getting heavier and heavier.
Sinking deeper and deeper.
I am lightless now.
Totally relaxed.
Taking in the healing benefits of relaxing deep sleep long into the night.
Swaying back and forth,
Back and forth,
Back and forth.
My breathing is so relaxed now.
So relaxed that I can feel myself relaxing just a little deeper.
As I continue to sway back and forth.
Breath by breath,
I become deeper and deeper relaxed.
Swaying back and forth,
So relaxed.
That I fall into a deep,
Peaceful sleep.
Swaying back and forth.
Just listening to the serene music.
Listening.
Breathing.
Peace enters my body and mind softly.
Sinking deeply into my warm,
Soft,
Cozy bed.
So relaxed.
There is complete peace here in my mind and body.
Tranquility fills me.
My mind is flowing now.
Drifting deeper and deeper into a fully relaxed,
Deep sleep.
Enjoying being here.
So peaceful.
So rested.
Drifting deeply.
Sinking deeply into this quiet place of deep peace.
Sinking deeply,
Slowly,
Deeply.
Feeling deeply relaxed,
You
