Hi this is Frankie and welcome to this sacred journey.
Let's embark on this deep sleep journey together guided by the rhythm of your breath and drums under the stars of the universe.
As we settle into this space know that you are breathing under the same vast sky that was watched over by your ancestors for thousands and thousands of years.
They too found solace beneath the stars,
Their lives woven into the great tapestry of existence connected by breath,
By earth and sky.
In this moment you are not alone,
You are part of a lineage that has stretched back through time,
Supported by all those who have come before you.
The same stars that inspired their dreams now light your path to rest.
This meditation connects you to their wisdom,
Their strength and their calm.
Allow yourself to release,
Surrender and breathe deeply as you prepare to rest in the arms of the universe.
If you haven't already,
Laying on your back,
Spine straight,
With your hands by your side,
Or one hand on your belly and one hand on your heart.
Take a deep breath in,
Set an intention for this deep sleep and now begin by taking a deep breath in through your nose,
Filling your lungs completely and exhaling slowly through your mouth.
Letting go of the day,
Inhale deeply once more,
Feel the breath expanding within you and as you exhale imagine releasing all tension from your body.
One more breath in,
Connecting with the air that has been shared by all your ancestors on planet Earth.
As you exhale give gratitude to your ancestors.
Now allow your breath to flow naturally,
Just like the tides of the ocean have for millennia.
Feel its gentle rhythm,
A constant steady presence grounding you into every present moment.
Visualize yourself lying beneath a clear endless sky.
The stars twinkle above,
Ancient and wise.
They're watching over you as they have watched over all those who came before you.
These stars have witnessed your ancestors,
Countless dreams and now they watch over you,
Guiding you into peaceful rest.
As you breathe in again imagine drawing in timeless energy of the stars,
Filling your body with the energy from the stars.
With each exhale you're letting go of anything that's been weighing you down,
Thoughts,
Worries or tension.
You're releasing them to the night where they will dissolve like whispers in the wind.
Inhale the light of the stars filling you with peace,
Exhale release what no longer serves you.
Inhale the light of the stars filling you with peace and exhale releasing all that no longer serves you.
You are now preparing to sink deeper into relaxation.
Let's count down together from ten to one.
With each number feel yourself releasing even more,
Sinking deeper into calm and letting go.
Ten,
The stars above shining their light on you.
Nine,
Your shoulders soften,
Your body growing heavier.
Eight,
Ancient stillness of the night filling you with peace.
Seven,
Any tension in your arms and hands are letting go completely.
Six,
Feel the weight of your body sinking deeper into the surface beneath you.
Five,
With each breath your mind becomes clearer and more at peace.
Four,
Releasing all remnants of the day's thoughts.
Three,
The stars twinkle gently above wrapping a cocoon of safety around you.
Two,
Your breath is slowing and your heart is softening.
You are entirely at peace and ease.
One,
You are deeply,
Deeply relaxed,
Floating under the vast sky with your ancestors.
The stars hold you now,
Their guiding lights are shining into your night,
Into the stillness of rest.
Feel the connection of the earth beneath you,
Solid and eternal,
Grounding you in its steady embrace.
Imagine roots growing from your body into the soil,
Anchoring you to the elements that make up all life.
Sensing the earth beneath you,
Steady and yielding,
Offering strength and stability.
Feel its ancient energy flowing into you,
Grounding you into a place of safety and calm.
Feel now into the element of water,
The water within you,
The life-giving currents that flow through your veins.
Imagine a gentle stream washing away anything that no longer serves your higher being,
Leaving only purity and renewal.
Turning your attention to the air,
The breath moving in and out of your lungs,
Each inhale brings clarity and inspiration,
And each exhale carries away any lingering tension,
Leaving space for peace within your body.
Imagine the warmth of a fire glowing softly within you.
This is the fire of transformation,
Burning away any doubts and igniting your deepest dreams.
Let its energy radiate through your being,
Filling you with courage and strength.
As these elements start flowing together within,
Sense the harmony in your body.
You are one with the earth,
The water,
The air,
And the fire.
You are part of the great web of existence,
Supported by the universe,
Held by the elements on planet earth.
Letting go,
As you continue to breathe,
Repeat silently in your mind,
With each breath I release the weight of the day,
With each breath I release the weight of the day,
With each breath I let go of all that no longer serves me,
With each breath I let go of all that no longer serves me,
With each breath I sink deeper into peace,
With each breath I sink deeper into peace.
Feel these words flowing through you,
A gentle mantra guiding you into surrender.
Each time you repeat them,
Notice the release growing stronger,
Your body sinking deeper and further into rest.
With each breath I release the weight of the day,
With each breath I release the weight of the day,
With each breath I let go of all that no longer serves me,
With each breath I let go of all that no longer serves me,
With each breath I sink deeper into peace,
With each breath I sink deeper into peace.
Feel these words flowing through you,
Imagine they are releasing not just your worries of the day,
But the stories and patterns that no longer align with who you are becoming.
Picture them as leaves falling gently from a tree carried away by the breeze.
With each breath I release the weight of the day,
With each breath I release the weight of the day,
With each breath I release the weight of the day,
With each breath I release the weight of the day,
With each breath I release the weight of the day,
With each breath I release the weight of the day,
With each breath I release the weight of the day,
With each breath I release the weight of the day,
With each breath I release the weight of the day,
With each breath I release the weight of the day,
Release the need to hold on to control,
Release the expectations placed upon you by others,
Release the doubts that have lingered in your mind,
With each exhale you let go of these,
Leaving behind a sense of lightness and freedom.
I am safe.
I am free.
I am at peace.
I am safe.
I am free.
I am at peace.
I am safe.
I am free.
I am at peace.
That's right,
Drifting into deep sleep,
At peace,
Free and safe.
Now imagine the night sky is transforming into a vast comforting darkness,
With the stars taking you to places for dreaming,
Taking you through space to this space of sleep.
And in this space is where dreams are born and where the soul is renewed in the stars.
Let yourself float into this space.
You are weightless and free.
Your breath now becomes softer,
Slower and more gentle.
Each exhale carries you deeper and deeper into space,
Into the quiet.
Each inhale fills you with serenity.
Feel yourself drifting into space,
Space held by the earth,
Watched over by the stars,
Sinking into the deepest,
Most restful sleep,
Opening up to dreams,
Opening up to possibilities.
Your ancestors watching over you.
You are safe.
You are loved.
You are infinite.
Let yourself move now into the world of dreaming.
Tonight as you breathe under the same stars as your ancestors,
May you find peace,
Renewal and deep restorative rest.
Let the rhythm of your breath guide you deeper into your dreams,
Into the night.
Rest well,
Dear soul,
And let yourself take flight with your dreams tonight.
