Allowing your body to settle down into the surface beneath you.
Giving yourself permission to rest now.
Connect with the breath.
Take a deep breath in,
Long slow breath out.
Deep breath in,
Long slow breath out.
Deep breath in,
Long slow breath out.
Deep breath in,
Long slow breath out.
Deep breath in,
Long slow breath out.
Deep breath in,
Long slow breath out.
Help to calm the mind in the body.
Feeling nourished by your breath.
Breath in deeply,
Belly expanding and out completely.
In,
Belly expanding.
I'm going to count very slowly now,
Up to seven.
And in between each count,
I'll use the words drifting deeper and deeper.
And you'll find,
As I count,
That you drift deeper into a state of relaxation.
It doesn't matter if the mind wanders.
It doesn't matter if you lose your awareness altogether.
All that matters is your own relaxation.
Allow yourself the pleasure of sinking deeper and deeper.
Into the comfortable surface beneath you.
Allow yourself to drift into relaxation.
As I count slowly up to seven.
And in between each count,
I'll use the words drifting deeper and deeper.
Drifting deeper and deeper.
Feeling yourself settling down.
Becoming much more relaxed now.
Feeling so very comfortable.
Beginning to feel peaceful too.
As you drift deeper,
Feel that relaxation working its way through your body.
Three.
Drifting deeper and deeper.
Become aware of how slow and easy your breathing has become.
Drifting deeper and deeper.
And with every breath you take,
You feel more comfortable.
And much more relaxed.
More and more relaxed.
Feeling your whole body getting heavier.
Comfortably heavier.
As though you're sinking down.
Sinking down into the sheer comfort.
As you take a breath in.
Drifting deeper and deeper.
Feeling more comfortable.
More relaxed.
And so glad to be drifting deeper and deeper.
Heavy.
Tired.
Drifting deeper and deeper.
Drifting deeper and deeper.
Beautifully relaxed.
Every part of your body is coming to rest now.
Feeling tired.
Drifting deeper and deeper.
Drifting deeper and deeper.
And breath in.
Seven.
Drifting deeper and deeper.
Into that warm and comfortable state of just letting go.
Completely.
Allowing the subconscious mind to take on more and more of that responsibility for guiding your awareness down.
As you drift with your thoughts.
Just listening to the sound of my voice.
Each word I speak allows you to continue to drift down.
Deeper and deeper.
Into relaxation.
Nothing bothers you.
Nothing disturbs you.
As you concentrate on my voice.
Even the loudest of noises will not bother you.
As you listen to my voice.
Concentrating only on the sound of my voice.
Each word.
Each sound.
Relaxing you even deeper than before.
This is a special time for you.
A time to put aside your thoughts,
Your material problems.
A time where you can really become aware of that inner part.
A time when no one is demanding anything from you.
No one needing anything.
This is your time.
A wonderful relaxation.
Of your body.
