Evening Rest: A Celtic Journey - Air's Breath Of Release

Welcome to Evening Rest: A Celtic Journey — a series of gentle blessings to close the day in peace. Rooted in Celtic spirituality and the wisdom of the natural elements, these short evening meditations invite you to release the day and rest in stillness.

Each blessing calls upon one of the five sacred elements — Earth, Water, Fire, Air, and Spirit — to bring comfort, renewal, and calm to your night. Let these blessings become your evening ritual — a soft descent into rest, wrapped in presence and peace.

Blessing Four: Air's Breath Of Release.

This blessing honours Air as the breath of freedom. With each exhale, the day loosens its hold; with each inhale, peace returns. The element of Air teaches the art of letting go. Rest now in its invisible embrace — light, free, and open to dreams.

A warm welcome in to Night 4 of 5 Evenings with the Elements.

Celtic Blessings for Rest.

Tonight we rest with air,

Breathing out the day and welcoming in peace.

This evening I return to my breath.

The day is done,

Its story is told.

Now,

In the hush of night,

I breathe.

Inhale and I welcome peace.

Exhale and I let the day go.

Inhale,

Receive what is good.

Exhale,

Release what is heavy.

Breath of life,

You carried me through this day.

Now,

Carry me into rest.

Let my spirit rise like the night wind,

Free,

Unburdened and light.

Blessed be this night of air's quiet release.
