Hello and welcome.

This is a slow yoga nidra for deep sleep.

Make yourself comfortable.

Lying on your back.

Arms resting softly by your sides.

Legs relaxed.

Eyes closed.

Nothing to do.

Nowhere to go.

Take a slow breath in and exhale gently.

Again a soft inhale and let the breath fall out.

Feel your whole body beginning to settle.

Silently repeat a gentle intention.

I allow myself to rest deeply.

Let the words melt into your body.

Let them drift to the back of your mind.

I will guide you through the body slowly.

Simply notice the part I name.

You don't need to move.

Just feel.

Right side.

Right thumb.

Right index finger.

Middle finger.

Ring finger.

Little finger.

Palm of the right hand.

Back of the hand.

Wrist.

Forearm.

Elbow.

Upper arm.

Shoulder.

Right side of the chest.

Right waist.

Right hip.

Thigh.

Knee.

Ankle.

Heel.

Sole of the right foot.

Top of the foot.

Right toes.

Left side.

Left thumb.

Left index finger.

Middle finger.

Now feel both arms.

Both legs.

The entire body lying in stillness.

Now bring your awareness to your breath.

No need to change it.

Just notice it.

The coolness of the inhale.

The warmth of the exhale.

Breathing in.

The body softens.

Breathing out.

The body sinks deeper.

Feel the breath moving like a slow tide.

In.

Let the breath grow quieter and slower.

Imagine a soft warm light above your forehead.

As gentle as moonlight.

It drifts down.

Relaxing your forehead.

Soothing the space behind your eyes.

Softening your cheeks.

Unclenching your jaw.

Let the warm light flow down the throat.

Across the shoulders.

Through the chest.

Into the belly.

And all the way down the legs.

Every breath melts you deeper into rest.

Let the mind grow quiet.

Like ripples settling on still water.

Feel yourself floating.

Weightless.

Safe.

Silently repeat.

I let go.

I drift into peaceful sleep.

Allow yourself to fall.

Gently.

Into deep.

Nourishing.

Rest.
