My name is Jenny and this is an NSDR style meditation and breath work for rest.

Perfect for just before bed or when you just need a moment to land.

Thank you so much for being here.

Let's find a comfortable lying down position and just bring your eyes to a close.

Taking a few moments to land.

Taking a few moments to,

With the eyes closed,

Maybe gently soften the gaze between the eyebrows.

The seat of the mind.

Perhaps tuning in to the ground underneath you.

And really allowing your body,

Your body to be held.

I am safe to be here.

And tuning in to the rise and fall of your breath just as it lands.

Just be with that for a few moments,

Not trying to change or force.

Just listening and being with your breath.

Perhaps seeing if you can make your breath a little gentler.

No stress,

No force.

But trusting you can slow your breath.

And what is it like with this light,

Gentle,

Easy breath?

If every inhale creates space.

Space in the body,

Space in the mind.

Space with every breath melts the body.

Every exhale loosens any grip.

Every exhale allows into the ground.

You can feel it,

Let it be there.

And keeping this space,

This relaxation.

Take an inhale for four,

Three,

Two,

One.

Exhale eight,

Seven,

Six,

Five,

Four,

Three,

Two,

One.

Inhale light,

Three,

Two,

One.

Exhale slow,

Seven,

Six.

It's okay if you lose it,

Four,

Three,

Two,

One.

Inhale four,

Three,

Two,

One.

Exhale eight,

Seven,

Six,

Five,

Four,

Three,

Two.

And keep this going.

Exhaling eight.

And find a pace that you can settle into.

A little bit of challenging sensation is okay as long as the body can relax.

Four and eight.

Every cycle of counting like you are counting sheep.

Dropping you into a deeper state of rest.

Eight.

Space.

And just coming back to an easy,

Easy breath.

Breathe into it.

Heavy,

Pelvis,

And hips,

And the spine.

Into the spine.

Let's go.

Shoulders and neck,

Shoulders and neck,

Eyebrows,

Head,

Whole body and skin.

And anything I am carrying,

And anything you need to hear.

I am safe to rest.

I am loved.

Repeat that whatever phrase.

Into your head,

Tell yourself.

Give yourself what you need.

Let it come into the body.

I am.

And you can stay here for as long as you need.

You can trust.

You can rest.

Or just giving yourself,

Wherever you are,

A wave of gratitude and love for being here.

And feeling the gratitude and the love from me.

Trust that you are held.

Trust that you are loved.

You are so loved.

And trust you can keep.

Thank you.
