Hello sweet soul.

Welcome to your meditation.

I'm Julian Arce,

And I'll be your guide during this time.

Let this be your moment of quiet.

A soft pause at the end of your day.

A place where your body loosens,

Your breath slows,

And your mind begins to settle,

Bit by bit,

Layer by layer.

Take a gentle inhale,

And a long slow exhale.

You've arrived.

You're allowed to rest here.

Imagine a calm winter night outside.

Snow falling softly,

Each flake drifting down in slow motion.

The world is hushed,

Wrapped in a blanket of quiet.

Inside you're warm.

A soft glow fills the room.

The kind of warm light that makes your whole body exhale.

Feel that contrast.

Cool,

Peaceful,

Night outside.

And gentle,

Glowing warmth around you.

Nothing to rush toward.

Nothing pulling at your attention.

Just stillness.

Let your breath become a little heavier now.

Like settling into a cozy evening.

Inside,

Letting warmth fill your chest.

Exhale,

Letting your shoulders melt down your back.

Again,

Slow breath in.

And an even slower breath out.

Notice your forehead soften.

Your jaw release.

Your belly loosen.

Your hands grow warm.

Feel your whole body easing into the night.

If your mind has been busy today,

Thinking,

Planning,

Holding too much,

Imagine each thought drifting by,

Like flakes of snow.

You don't have to chase them,

Solve them,

Or even hold them.

Just let them fall gently and quietly and softly to the ground.

Every breath out becomes a release.

A little more space.

A little more quiet.

A little more peace.

Your mind does not need to perform right now.

It can rest.

Feel the warmth of the room around you.

Warm and comforting.

Imagine the space welcoming you home.

Your whole self.

Your tired self.

Your tender self.

Your beautiful human self.

Let your breath deepen,

Just a little.

Not an effort,

But an openness.

You are allowed to arrive fully here,

In this quiet night.

You are allowed to be held by this stillness.

And you are allowed to rest.

Take one final slow inhale,

Letting the warmth of the room settle into your body.

Exhale gently,

Letting the quiet night settle into your mind.

Let yourself drift into the softness,

Into the calm,

Into the peace,

Into the rest.

Thank you,

Sweet soul,

For allowing me to guide you through this practice tonight.

Wishing you sweet dreams.
