Make yourself completely comfortable lying down.
Feel the support of your mattress beneath you.
Let your body sink.
Feeling cosy.
Feeling safe.
And feeling cradled.
Feeling comfort.
Begin to notice your natural breath.
Each inhale brings calm.
Exhale letting go.
Now bring your attention to your toes.
Feel them softening.
Melting into calm.
Sinking deeper with each breath.
Imagine a warm soothing wave moving gently up through your feet.
Ankles.
Heavy.
Cosy and calm.
Feeling this wave through your knees.
Gently letting go.
Each muscle loosens.
Softens.
Sinking deeper into comfort.
Feeling the warmth of gentle surrender moving through your body.
Notice your abdomen and your chest.
Filling your body with cosy calm.
Each exhale releases tension.
Each exhale releases thought.
Soft.
Imagine a gentle glow expanding through your torso.
Soft.
Inviting complete relaxation.
Your shoulders,
Arms,
Hands.
Every finger.
Sink deeply into softness.
Jaw and face release completely.
Smooth.
Your eyelids feel heavy.
You are held in comfort.
Imagine yourself in a serene place.
A safe and comforting space.
A quiet cabin with soft candlelight.
Maybe a cosy forest glade.
Or maybe a beach at sunset with gentle waves.
Hear the sounds around you.
Maybe a whisper of leaves or distant waves.
Or a faint crackle of fire.
Everything around you is safe.
Soothed.
There's no need to follow them.
No need to hold on to them.
Exhale release.
A gentle wave of relaxation moves over your entire body.
From the top of your head all the way down to your toes.
Your body is heavy.
Your body is fully supported.
Your body is deeper into complete relaxation.
And allow yourself to notice any small areas of tension.
Imagine them dissolving like warm grass.
With each number you sink deeper into comfort.
Deeply relaxed.
Every sound you hear.
Every tiny movement.
Helps you relax.
Helps you drift.
Helps you float.
Into cosy.
Deep.
Calm.
Imagine a gentle comforting blanket of warmth wrapping around you.
Sleepy.
Soft.
Holding you safe.
Sleepy.
Each breath allows you to sink further into that safety.
Further into comfort.
A soft gentle stream of light above your head.
With each breath the light flows down through your body.
Washing away tension.
There's nothing to do.
Nowhere to go.
Your body knows how to sleep.
Your mind knows how to rest.
You are safe.
Gently sinking deeper.
Into sleep.
Sleepy.
And now let yourself drift completely into sleep.
Sleepy.
Safely.
Effortlessly.
Into a deep.
Peaceful.
Restorative night of rest.
