If you're listening to this right now. May have woken up in the middle of the night. Maybe a thought pulled you away. You simply opened your eyes. Whatever brought you here? You're okay. You don't need to check the time. You don't need to think about tomorrow. For this moment. And simply rest. Feel the comfort beneath you. The warmth around you. The quiet of the night. You don't need to make sleep happen. We only need to rest. If thoughts begin to appear. Simply notice them. And gently remind yourself. You don't need to make sleep happen. You only need to rest. Allow yourself to be fully supported by the bed. Let your hips sink in more. Allow your head to be heavy on your pillows. Let your arms and legs relax. There's nowhere else you need to be right now. Nothing you need to do. Nothing you need to figure out until morning. You're simply resting. And as you rest. Sleep will return. In its own time. Bye for now. Simply rest.
