This is your guide,
Saqib.
Today's meditation is a practice of surrender.
We will surrender the mind,
Or in other words,
Surrender the world,
Body,
Emotions,
And thoughts.
You might already be in your sleep posture.
If not,
Then take a while to adjust your posture and let yourself be totally relaxed.
See if you can shift into a more relaxed posture.
And initially,
I would request you to keep your eyes open if you can.
I will prompt you to close them soon.
It might also be helpful to initially lie down on your back.
Now,
Let's start by becoming aware of the world around you.
Observe the space around you,
Even if it is dark.
You might be able to see your room.
Look around your room.
Observe the walls,
The ceiling.
And if it is too dark,
You can simply observe the darkness.
Now bring your awareness to a point in the line of your sight.
And just observe this point for a while.
And now you can gradually close your eyes.
Let your eyelids gradually rest on your eyes.
As you are doing so,
You are releasing any tension from the eyes.
And now let this little affirmation vibrate through your being.
I surrender the world.
I surrender the world.
I surrender the world.
And now,
Become aware of your body.
We will now do a body scan to relax each and every part of the body.
So bring your awareness to your head.
And relax your head.
Relax your face muscles.
Neck.
Shoulders.
Arms.
Hands.
Chest.
Belly.
Upper back.
Lower back.
Pelvis.
Hips.
Thighs.
Knees.
Calves.
And relax your feet.
And now the sleep affirmation.
I surrender the body.
I surrender the body.
I surrender the body.
Now become aware of your emotions,
Your feelings.
Notice how you feel in this moment.
Simply observe your energy.
And now the affirmation.
I surrender the emotions.
I surrender the emotions.
I surrender the emotions.
And now notice if there are any thoughts crossing your mind.
Simply become aware of these thoughts as if you are watching them from a distance.
Let these thoughts come and go.
And now the affirmation.
I surrender the thoughts.
I surrender the thoughts.
I surrender the thoughts.
Now only awareness is left.
Become aware of this awareness.
And now the affirmation.
I choose peace.
I choose peace.
I choose peace.
Let your awareness rest in this deep peace.
I will be counting down from ten to zero.
As you will gradually descend into the world of deep sleep.
Ten.
Nine.
Eight.
Seven.
Six.
Five.
Four.
Three.
Two.
One.
Zero.
