Lay back.
And let the night take your weight.
The day is behind you now.
And ahead of you is something softer.
The world of your dreams.
Breathe in slowly.
And out even slower.
With every breath out.
You sink a little deeper into the bed,
A little closer to sleep.
Your body knows this crossing.
Has made it 10,
000 times.
What you carry into sleep is what you're dreamed with.
So tonight,
Travel light.
Any worry still circling,
Pictured as a coat you take off and hang by the door.
It will be there in the morning if you want it.
Most nights you will not.
Any hard moment from today?
Let it stay in today.
It does not get to follow you into the night.
Now,
Choose what you would love to dream about.
Place where you feel free.
Person you love.
A version of your life that makes your chest feel open.
See it like the first scene of a film.
Where are you?
What does the air feel like?
Who's with you?
Bold and gentle.
You are handing your sleeping mind the seed.
It knows what to do with seeds in the dark.
If your mind wanders back to the day,
Walk it gently back to your picture,
The way you would walk a child back to bed.
Now let the picture soften.
You do not have to hold.
The dream will come and find you on its own.
Body heavy?
Breath slow.
Mind lose and wandering somewhere kind.
Sleep well.
Dream beautiful.
