Transcript

In this space that has been specially designed for you,

Who perhaps tonight simply needed to breathe,

To find a bit of peace,

Far from the noise,

Tensions,

And expectations.

And if you are here,

It is surely not by chance.

Perhaps you cannot fall asleep,

Perhaps your mind is going in circles,

Or maybe you are going through a period filled with doubt,

Too heavy silence,

Or a fatigue that you can no longer even name.

This meditation is addressed to you,

To you who continue to move forward despite everything,

To you who perhaps carry old wounds,

Situations where fear,

Control,

Or violence have left traces,

To you who seek even a discreet refuge to rest your head and breathe.

Tonight,

I offer you a moment of gentleness,

Where you will not have to do anything,

Solve anything,

Just let yourself be guided.

A moment to let a forgotten question circulate without forcing it.

What if one day I could choose?

You can listen to this meditation every night for at least 30 days.

This will help you create a regular space of rest,

To create a habit and a refuge.

And if you fall asleep before the end of the meditation,

That is totally desirable and normal,

Because the unconscious mind is vigilant,

And always hears what it needs to hear at the right moment.

So now,

Take time to settle comfortably in your bed,

Or wherever you feel safe,

And make sure you will not be disturbed.

This moment is yours.

The meditation will begin soon.

Gently close your eyes,

Like drawing a light curtain between the outside world and a deeper,

More silent world,

A world where you can finally find yourself again.

Take a deep breath,

Exhale as you let what weighs you down settle like a heavy coat that you let drop,

And gently turn your attention to your forehead,

And feel how this area can begin to smooth out,

And how thoughts themselves become more supple.

And your eyelids can also soften a little,

Like petals that close at nightfall.

And then your cheeks can relax,

And your jaw can also loosen,

Releasing what it carried without knowing.

And as your tongue naturally detaches from the roof of your mouth,

Your whole face can begin to enter into calmness.

And your neck now softens,

Like a knot being loosened.

And then allow this relaxation to slide slowly down your neck,

To slide to your shoulders,

Your shoulders that can in turn settle,

Releasing their burden.

Then your right arm,

Your elbow,

Your forearm,

Down to your right hand.

Then each finger,

Your fingers that quietly slip into this relaxation.

And the same now on the left side.

All this part can melt too,

Like an ice cube under the palm of the sun.

I now invite you to move your awareness to the center of your chest,

And feel how breath enters and leaves it,

Perhaps slower,

Deeper,

Freer.

And the belly can now completely relax.

It no longer has anything to hold.

It can settle,

And the lower back relaxes.

The hips loosen.

The muscles soften.

And the relaxation continues down into your right thigh,

The ankle and the foot to the tips of your toes.

Each toe can fall asleep a little more.

And the left leg follows the same path.

The foot and toe that slowly surrenders.

And your whole body is now settled,

As if resting inside itself,

And the mind also slows down.

And in this natural slowing down,

Something opens,

A slower,

Deeper,

Vaster state,

Sometimes called the alpha state or trance state.

A threshold,

A space where the unconscious is vigilant and invites you to go further.

And now,

Imagine behind your closed eyelids a very gentle tremor,

Something breathing in the darkness,

As if a curtain of mist were rising very slowly,

Revealing a silent and moving world.

Before you,

A wide,

Calm river.

The current is so slow that it could almost be confused with the air.

Just this sensation that everything slides without effort,

As if time itself had slowed down.

A boat awaits you.

Its wood is ancient,

Smooth,

Patinated by countless journeys,

And when you board it,

Nothing creaks.

The boat recognizes you.

The wood embraces your weight.

The ground welcomes,

And already the familiar world drifts away,

Carried by the simple gliding of the boat on the water.

No oars,

No direction,

Just the subtle movement and this slow,

Rocking,

Like a very ancient breath that readjusts you from within.

And the air becomes denser,

Almost charged with presence,

As if the invisible were approaching,

And a warm current rises along your spine.

A gentle pulsation in your palms,

A fine vibration in your chest,

And something in you begins to remember.

Then the boat slows down.

It approaches a shaded shore,

A place that one senses is magical,

Sacred,

And protected.

And there you see an obstructed passage,

Knotted branches,

Piled stones like a forgetfulness that has frozen over time.

And slowly you begin to clear the entrance,

One branch then another.

Your hands know what to do.

Each gesture is a liberation,

And each stone removed brings up a memory,

An emotion,

A resistance that no longer needs to be there.

Light sighs rise all around you,

Shivers in the air,

Veils of fatigue that drift away.

And you feel in your belly a space that can empty,

That empties again and again,

That cleanses itself and opens.

And when the passage is clear,

You enter and you feel how springy the ground is.

The atmosphere is warm,

Almost vibrant,

As if the place itself pulsed.

A slow,

Deep beat gradually aligning with yours.

You are alone and yet accompanied.

Nothing speaks here,

But everything listens.

And in this inhabited silence,

A question rises not from your mind,

But from lower down,

From the belly,

The heart,

Or even the cells.

What decision should I make in my life?

You do not search,

You do not analyze,

You let away.

A word come,

A breath,

A sensation.

What decision should I make in my life?

Take your time.

Let emerge slowly what your body already knows.

And then something changes.

A warmth rises in your neck like a gentle flame that gives strength back to the shoulders.

Your feet become slightly heavier,

As if they remembered they can carry.

A tremor can pass through your legs,

A more vivid,

More grounded,

More stable energy that begins to settle.

You feel it is time to move forward.

And before you,

There is this opening.

It does not look like a door,

But simply a brighter light,

A golden glow that seems to call you from within.

But as you advance,

The space widens,

The air becomes warmer,

More vibrant.

Something awakens,

A world where the decision is already made,

Already experienced.

You enter it.

This place is alive,

It has the texture of a lucid dream.

The sounds are soft,

The colors slightly blurred,

But intense.

Everything here breathes alignment,

And there you see yourself.

It is you in this future become present,

Having fully assumed this decision.

Observe,

Look at how you walk.

How do you hold your gaze?

Feel the presence in your gestures.

This decision that you have made,

What has it allowed to achieve?

What connection has it freed,

Strengthened,

Transformed?

What has changed in your daily life?

What has changed in your way of loving?

What has changed in your way of setting your boundaries?

You,

Who are the people surrounding you?

Let the images build,

Or the sensations take place.

Let your intuition show you what is right for you.

Take everything there is to take.

This feeling of obviousness,

This inner calm,

This permission,

All this.

It is you who creates it now.

And now I invite you to let all this imprint itself in you without enclosing it,

Without freezing it,

Just like a gentle anchor that infiltrates the memory of your body.

And then let a last wave come,

A wave of gratitude.

A gratitude for this experience,

For this question,

This answer,

For yourself.

Rest there simply in this silence where everything is ready,

Where everything is on its way.

You are exactly where you need to be.

And as the images have surely faded in the peaceful breath of the moment,

A light veil slowly descends like a warm mist caressing the contours of your mind.

And all that has been seen,

Heard,

Felt,

Continues to resonate gently in a slow and deep echo.

There is nothing more to understand,

Just this feeling.

And as something already works beneath the surface like an underground river that polishes stone without ever rushing,

Each thought becomes a light flake,

Free,

Carried by a breeze that dissolves it before it even touches the ground.

Everything now opens in this texture of forgotten fabric where sounds are cottony.

Light seems filtered through curtains of ancient dreams.

You are still there,

Already elsewhere in a place without a name,

But deeply familiar where nothing is done,

Yet everything is accomplished.

And time dilates,

The contours fade.

Something in you melts into a vast infinite space,

Where transformation is gentle,

Silent,

Inevitable in this new slowness.

And each memory becomes a dimmed light,

Each emotion a cloud cross then surpassed.

Filaments of serenity circulate gently like invisible currents between secret shores,

Connecting what you were to what you are becoming.

And everything is fluid,

Everything is just.

This rightness settles without jarring,

Without tension.

Like a vegetable ink that infiltrates the grain of paper,

Like an ancient music that one finds again without knowing where it comes from.

With each breath,

Consciousness unfolds like a fan of self-revealing new inner textures,

Forgotten folds,

Colors that one thought extinguished.

And all this comes alive in a filled silence,

As if the inner universe whispered,

You can now.

A glow rises in the distance,

A diffuse warmth,

Round,

Welcoming like a heart beating slowly in the shadow of a dream.

And you are guided without effort,

Without expectation.

And even the word guided becomes unnecessary,

Because there is no longer a direction,

Just a welcoming smile,

Deep,

Infinite.

You rest there like a star in a boundless sky,

Where everything tells you that it is time to let go,

To melt,

To embrace this space between two worlds,

Where sleep is not an end but a crossing.

If you are not yet asleep,

I invite you to repeat the following positive affirmations until you find sleep.

Your unconscious will then take over.
