Hello and welcome.
This is Bailey Barber and I'm so grateful you are here with me tonight.
In this evening's session,
I will be offering you distance Reiki while guiding you through a deeply restorative yoga nidra practice.
This session is intentionally designed to help nourish and relax your vagus nerve,
The pathway to inner calm,
So your entire nervous system can ease into comfort,
Peace,
And deep rest.
You will be supported by my sound healing frequency music featuring delta binaural beats at 0.
5 Hz paired with the harmonizing 528 Hz frequency.
The 528 Hz frequency is often connected with renewal,
Emotional upliftment,
And restoring balance to the physical body,
Especially the DNA.
This will help allow the body to unwind and return to a natural state of harmony and balance.
And the delta waves will guide your brainwave state into the deepest sleep state,
Where profound restoration and nervous system repair take place.
It is my intention that you drift into sleep effortlessly and awaken feeling refreshed,
Lighter,
And deeply restored.
So when you're ready,
Gently settle into your comfortable position,
Taking a few moments to get your pillow and blankets arranged so that you can rest and lie back in perfect comfort and ease.
Let your legs extend naturally,
And if it feels nourishing,
You can place a pillow under your knees to support your lower back.
Let your arms rest gently at your sides,
Palms open and relaxed,
Or in whatever position feels most nourishing to you.
Let yourself settle into your comfortable position,
Gently close down your eyelids,
Letting them grow heavy as though the night is softly descending on you now.
Feel yourself sinking deeper into the soft surface beneath you,
Fully supported,
Nothing to do,
There is nowhere else to be.
Just arriving with ease into rest.
Take a long,
Slow inhale,
Feeling your chest and belly expand,
And pausing gently at the top.
Exhale,
Letting your shoulders melt down,
Your jaw relax,
And your whole body begin to loosen and soften.
Let your breath return to a natural,
Comfortable rhythm,
Smooth,
Steady,
And unforced.
Bring your awareness now to your heart center,
This quiet,
Still space within.
Here,
Offer your sankalpa,
A heartfelt intention said in the present tense,
Like,
I am calm,
I am safe to sleep peacefully,
I sleep with ease.
Letting whatever arises for you,
Be what you choose in this moment,
Repeating it silently three times,
Letting it settle into your whole being.
Now,
As I begin to send you distance Reiki,
Visualize a gentle flow of Reiki energy beginning to gather above the crown of your head,
Like a soft,
Soothing glow,
Warm and peaceful,
Ready to look after you completely tonight as you drift into sleep.
This healing light flows down over your scalp,
Releasing the forehead,
Softening the temples,
Unclenching the jaw.
Your thoughts quiet,
Your eyes feel heavier,
Your tongue relaxes from the roof of your mouth,
As the Reiki stream flows downward into your neck and shoulders,
Melting away the weight you've carried today,
Opening space where tension once resided.
Your arms become heavy and warm,
Your hands at ease and softly open,
Your fingers resting in gentle stillness,
The energy moves through your chest,
Soothing the heart center,
Freeing up the breath by creating more softness and space.
Down into your ribs,
Your abdomen,
Your lower back,
Everything softening,
Loosening,
Unwinding with each breath.
The energy flows into your hips and pelvis,
Releasing any tension,
Creating a sense of safety and spaciousness.
It flows down your legs,
Relaxing your thighs,
Softening your knees,
Soothing your calves.
It flows down into your ankles,
Your feet,
Your toes,
Releasing every last bit of effort,
Of tension,
Your entire body is now wrapped in a gentle field of healing energy,
Held by this nurturing energy,
Creating deep stillness,
Nothing to carry,
Nothing to change.
Your nervous system knows it is safe here,
Safe to let go into sleep.
You are cradled in comfort,
Supported by this healing light,
Free to drift into peaceful sleep.
Now,
Move your awareness slowly like a soft spotlight as I guide you through this practice,
Allowing the energy of Reiki to flow with your awareness and attention.

Imagine now you are resting beneath towering redwood trees,
Trees so ancient and wise that time seems to slow down around them,
The ground below is soft with fallen needles,
A natural mattress cradling every part of you,
The earth beneath you steady and warmed by the sun during the day,
Helping to support you in this quiet darkness,
A gentle breeze moves through the branches above creating a slow soothing hush like nature's own lullaby,
With every breath in,
Peace expands through your heart space,
With every breath out,
Your muscles release and soften,
Above the tall canopy,
Parts just enough for starlight to spill through,
Silver beams stretching down like threads of shimmering comfort,
And the trees gently whisper to you,
You are safe here,
You are held,
Nothing to manage,
Nothing to do,
Just being held by the roots and the earth,
By the night and the air around you,
By the forest surrounding you with strength and peace,
Holding you gently in its arms,
You are held,
You are supported,
You are free to drift into dreams,
The redwoods keep silent watch over you,
The stars shimmer overhead,
And you may sleep now.
