Welcome!
As a creative professional,
Freelancer or entrepreneur,
Your mind often keeps buzzing long after the workday ends,
Making it hard to truly unwind and disconnect.
This meditation is your gentle guide to a peaceful evening transition,
Designed to help you release the day's demands and prepare your mind and body for deep restorative rest.
Find a comfortable position,
Perhaps seated or lying down,
Allowing yourself to soften.
Gently close your eyes,
If that feels safe,
Or soften your gaze downwards.
Take a deep breath in and as you exhale,
Consciously let go of any lingering tasks,
Thoughts or digital echoes from your day.
This is your personal off-switch,
Tailored for your hard-working entrepreneurial spirit.
Now,
Bring your awareness to your breath,
A gentle,
Rhythmic flow.
With each inhale,
Feel a wave of calm entering your body.
With each exhale,
Imagine any tension,
Any mental chatter,
Any unresolved issues from the day gently leaving you.
Visualize the workday slowly fading into the background like a sunset.
Bring your attention to your body.
Notice any areas where you might be holding tension,
Perhaps your jaw,
Your shoulders,
Your stomach.
With each exhale,
Consciously invite those areas to soften,
To release.
Imagine a warm,
Soothing light starting at the top of your head,
Slowly moving down through your face,
Relaxing your eyes,
Your cheeks,
Your jaw.
Feel it flowing down your neck into your shoulders,
Releasing any burdens you've carried.
Let it move down your arms,
Through your torso,
And into your legs and feet.
Feel your entire body becoming heavy,
Relaxed,
And deeply at ease.
Allow your mind to quiet.
If thoughts arise,
Simply acknowledge them without judgment,
And then gently guide your attention back to the feeling of your body relaxing,
Or the sound of your breath.
You are creating a clear boundary between your active day and your restful evening.
You are giving yourself permission to truly unplug.
As this meditation comes to a close,
Take one more deep,
Peaceful breath,
Affirming your readiness for rest.
Acknowledge the calm you've cultivated and the clear boundary you've set for your evening.
You are empowered to disconnect and embrace deep restoration.
When you're ready,
Gently open your eyes,
Carrying this sense of tranquility into your evening,
Knowing you've prepared yourself for truly restful sleep.
You are calm,
And you are ready for rest.
