And we'll just start off relaxing the body.

So with your eyes closed,

I want you to imagine that there's a beautiful beam of light that's above you.

And this light is a very healing and very cleansing light.

And just imagine that this light enters in through the top of your head.

And as it does,

It can cleanse away all of the tension that was there,

All of the thoughts and all of the words of your thoughts just melt away with this light and just become absorbed into this cleansing,

Healing process that you started with your imagination.

And the imagination is still a place to go inside of you.

This place where there's no logic,

No figuring things out,

Just being open and curious and allowing yourself to pretend that this process could heal you.

Just allow this light now to move through your forehead.

And you can imagine that your forehead relaxes and releases the tension.

And then this light moves even to the inside of your head behind your forehead and your skull.

And see if you could visualize your head from the inside out filled with this light,

Allowing this relief to just move through every part of your head,

Softening the sides of your face now,

Even behind your eyes,

Those eyes that analyze and look at things all day,

Just allowing them to feel that relief,

Feeling that softness behind the eyes,

Now that they have no more work to do,

Just relax.

The only thing that matters right now is just for your entire head to feel relaxed.

Every small bone,

Every fiber,

Just melt away the tension.

Really try to feel your face and your skull from the inside out.

And imagine what it would be like just to have every cell and every part of the fascia relax.

So inside of your head is illuminated,

All of the thoughts washed away with this healing light,

Like a beautiful waterfall cascading down the sides of your jaw,

So your jaw unlocks and your chin may even drop a little bit,

The inside of your mouth even relaxes.

And you notice now that maybe you are holding on to some tension in your jaw now,

Just let that relax.

There's nothing that needs to be said right now,

Just enjoying the process of relaxing.

Feel the back of your head surrender into the pillow and see if you can allow your head to be even heavier,

Pressing the back of the neck into the pillow and still imagining that light moving down now through your head,

All the way down through the sides of your neck now.

After your chin got relaxed,

Your jaw,

Slight moves into your neck,

Softening,

Relaxing every muscle in your neck now,

All those small bones,

Those muscles that hold your head up,

Just allow them to soften and release for the night,

Starting to bring that attention now to your chest area,

Imagining that light circulate all around the lungs,

The heart,

Cleansing,

Relaxing every part inside your chest.

And now notice how good it feels to breathe into this area,

As if there were nostrils in your chest,

And you could breathe directly into your chest,

Allowing that air,

That cool,

Crisp air to move through your chest,

Cleansing away all the heaviness,

As if that wind and the light could just bathe any of the tension.

So let it all soften and release.

This light moves now through your shoulders.

So your shoulders relax.

Maybe you can feel that they lengthen the sides of your neck.

Now that your shoulders have dropped,

Filled with this healing,

Cleansing light,

And this light moves now down your arms,

Down through all of the muscles that are working hard for you,

All of the joints,

All of those joints that have been affected with any tension.

Just allow them this relief,

Imagining that this light could permeate through any chronic pain,

It could just melt it away.

Some people say it seems like their arms get heavier.

Sometimes it feels like they get lighter for others.

Doesn't matter,

Everyone experiences that world of imagination of light healing their body in a different way.

Maybe you've heard of those instant miracles before,

People using this process to heal themselves.

I wonder if it will work for you,

At least by 20%.

You notice now that the light can move all the way down into your hands.

So your fingers are illuminated and relaxed.

The bones around these fingers and muscles just softens.

It's almost like now the bones are carried and they can just rest with this light that moves through all of those tiny bones in the hand,

Purifying,

Cleansing,

Healing every bone,

Every fiber with this healing light.

Now that the hands and the arms have softened with this light,

Imagine that light moves through the center of your body now,

Where your central column is,

Your spinal cord.

Just imagine vertebrae by vertebrae,

The light softening,

Cleansing,

Purifying all of the bones that compromise your back,

That hold you up with integrity and balance throughout the day.

Just allowing them this time to rest,

Become illuminated with this light,

All aligned now.

This light moves through the back,

Cleansing,

Purifying every bone.

Now allow your breath to move down to the sides of your ribs as that light purifies and relaxes the sides of your body.

Just let your breath come to that part of yourself and expand that light into the sides of you.

So you inhale and notice how much more juicy the breath can feel that way.

Just with a simple inhale,

Expanding the ribs and allowing that light to move down into the stomach so your seat of power,

They call it,

Is just able to rest and receive information in your dreams and receive the intuition that it will need at the right time.

Just as you are doing this right now,

The only thing that matters is just for you to relax and enjoy that releasing in the stomach as the light fills every part of your stomach,

Relaxing,

Purifying all the digestion process.

And now the light moves down to your hips,

And your hips and thighs become relaxed.

This light moves down inside of your legs,

Cleansing,

Purifying all those big muscles that stabilize you,

Now giving them all permission to relax,

To receive a healing.

And this light moves down the insides of your legs,

Indicating that you are safe,

You are secure,

You have earned this rest.

Nothing more important right now than just resting,

Surrendering to the soft surface beneath you and allowing even your feet to relax now as this light moves through the bottoms of your feet,

Each toe,

The big toe,

The second toe,

The third toe is relaxed,

The ring finger toe,

And even the pinky toe,

They're all illuminated,

Purified,

Relaxed.

Now that this light you've imagined has permeated all of your body,

Just imagine now in your mind that you're looking down a staircase,

There's 10 stairs,

And you can make this staircase any way you'd like out of marble,

Soft furs,

And you're standing at the top of the staircase and when you look down,

You realize that there's 10 steps,

And at the bottom of the stairs is a deeper level of relaxation than you've experienced in a while.

You want to take that journey down into deeper relaxation,

Because the more deeply relaxed you are,

The more deeper the transformative healing can be.

So count down from 10 to 1,

Just take one step down the stairs,

10,

Taking one step down,

9,

Taking another step down,

Feeling even more relaxed,

Even more comfortable,

Letting yourself drift down even deeper,

8,

Taking another step down the stairs,

Sinking,

Drifting,

Floating down deeper and deeper into this receptive state where you just get to receive deep rest and healing,

7,

Taking another step down,

Relaxing even deeper,

6,

Taking another step down,

Sinking,

Drifting down deeper,

5,

Taking another step down,

4,

Even your inner voices start to quiet down now,

Leaving you in serenity,

3,

Take another step down and drop a curtain now to the rest of the world,

Just like you close the curtains on your windows,

Closing the curtains to the rest of the day,

All of the other to-do lists,

Right now it's just your time to regenerate,

Renew,

4,

3,

Taking another step down,

2,

Drifting even deeper,

10 times deeper now,

And 1,

Taking another step down,

And you see that there's a beautiful soft cloud that is waiting for you,

It looks like the most comfortable cotton ball that you've ever seen,

So you just hop on this cloud and this cloud will float you away from anything that seemed like an issue before,

It'll drift you deeper and deeper into this beautiful,

Wonderful place in your subconscious,

Into a place where you get to restore your vitality,

Where you get to recharge simply by receiving it,

Simply by allowing yourself to relax deeper,

And as you drift on this cloud imagining yourself laying there in this healing space,

You realize there might still be some heaviness,

Some labels that you've put on yourself,

Some heavy,

Heavy expectations,

And you can just push those off the cloud,

You don't even have to name what it is,

Anything that doesn't feel good still,

Just push it off the cloud and allow that healing energy of the cloud to fill in that space where those obligations were before,

This light feeling,

It's almost like air,

But even lighter than air,

You're breathing in this essence of purity and replacing it with what that heaviness used to take up,

And now just with a simple act of breathing,

You breathe in that beautiful sense of connection to your truth,

Acceptance of gratitude,

And this cloud flows you deeper into these healing energies,

And if there's still anything heavy,

You just kick it off the cloud,

And imagining you on this cloud only filled with this pure essence of healing that surrounds you now,

And any amount of time,

All the hours that you sleep tonight will be the perfect amount of time to give you that amount of refreshing,

Vitalizing rest that you need,

As you float deeper on this cloud,

You continue to breathe in this healing essence that purifies not just your body,

But all of the emotions,

That energy field that surrounds you,

That people call your aura,

It just gets charged now with this cleansing.
