Hi,
It's Amy.
Welcome.
Settle into your bed.
However,
It feels most comfortable.
Adjust your pillows.
Notice the blanket.
Feel the gentle support beneath you.
Your body is fully held here.
Notice whatever is present in your body or your mind.
Maybe a thought that keeps returning.
A bit of restlessness.
Tension in your shoulders.
It's completely natural.
There's no need to fix anything.
You're here to simply be.
Now take a slow,
Gentle inhale.
And a soft exhale.
A little deeper into the mattress.
Perhaps roll your shoulders or stretch your arms.
Maybe gently extend your legs.
Whatever movement feels nourishing right now,
There is no right or wrong.
Allow yourself to trust this space,
The rhythm of your breath,
The subtle comfort beneath you.
Every exhale releases tension.
You are safe.
And if it feels good,
Maybe shift your focus now to your natural breath.
You can notice it's rhythm,
Gentle and effortless.
Perhaps allow your chest,
Abdomen,
And shoulders to soften with each cycle.
Invites your nervous system to settle.
It's encouraging parasympathetic activation without you needing to do a thing.
Your body will begin to trust this process.
Muscles release.
Noticing sensations without judgment.
Legs extending softly.
Explore additional gentle movements.
Fall back into sleep effortlessly.
Notice the textures.
That make this space perfectly peaceful and perfectly.
Maybe there's someone else there that you care about with you.
Sink into this sanctuary now.
Bring your awareness now to the support beneath your head.
Inhale through the nostrils.
And as you exhale,
Surrender your head into the soft support.
Letting go of any weight.
How it contours to your head.
Releasing tension,
Tender exploration of breath and shoulders to relax more deeply with each exhale.
And as it's right for you,
Coming back,
I invite you to bring awareness to each part of your body from toes,
As if each area is dissolving tension effortlessly.
Notice sensations.
Souls of the feet at the center of your being.
Trust that this intention carries itself at a deep effortless level.
Letting go of these words of comfort and cultivate clarity and ease with each exhale.
Perhaps you'll visualize a soft light enveloping your entire being and nurturing energy infusing each cell.
And a source of safety.
Settle into your bed however it feels most comfortable.
Adjust your pillows.
Notice the blanket.
Feel the gentle support beneath you.
Your body is fully held here.
Notice whatever is present in your body or your mind.
Maybe a thought that keeps returning.
A bit of restlessness.
Tension in your shoulders.
It's completely natural.
There's no need to fix anything.
You're here to simply be.
Now take a slow,
Gentle inhale and a soft exhale.
Now tilt a little deeper into the mattress.
Perhaps roll your shoulders or stretch your arms.
Maybe gently extend your legs.
Whatever movement feels nourishing right now.
There is no right or wrong.
Allow yourself to trust this space.
The rhythm of your breath.
The subtle comfort beneath you.
Every inhale gently invites ease.
Every exhale releases tension.
And if it feels good,
Maybe shift your focus now to your natural breath.
You can notice it's rhythm,
Gentle,
And effortless.
And perhaps allow your chest,
Abdomen,
And shoulders to soften with each cycle.
Invites your nervous system to settle.
It's encouraging parasympathetic activation.
Without you needing to do a thing,
Your body will begin to trust this process.
Muscles release.
Bring awareness now to your body as a whole.
Noticing sensations without judgment.
And if it's right for you,
Take one to three tender stretches,
Whether real or imagined,
Arms overhead,
Legs extending softly.
Explore additional gentle movements.
