Hello,
This is Stephanie Hodson.
Welcome to my new world sleep meditation in which I take you on a journey through the old world cops.
The place hidden from those who believe not.
The only place connecting the old world and the new.
A place most sacred and peaceful.
Here you will leave your old world problems behind and feel safe and supported as you finally manage to let go.
Make yourself comfortable.
Close your eyes and know that you are safe.
Take a deep full breath in through your nose and let it out on a long sigh.
That's it.
Now settle deep into your body so you can fully relax.
And with each breath sink deeper into the support beneath you.
Until you become part of the vessel that will carry you through the night to the new world.
Let go of the tension in your shoulders.
Feel as they melt away from your ears.
Let go of all that is sitting in your forehead.
And feel the pressure in your cheeks seep away.
As your jaw becomes slack and loose.
It is time to release all the pressure of the day that now is behind you.
Stretch out your fingers and release all the tension in your toes.
And focus on the darkness behind your eyelids.
Envisage all that nervous activity leaving your brain.
Watch it dissipate into the air around you.
It is just nervous energy and has no place here.
It is time to let it go.
Watch as it floats away.
All that nervous energy let it float away.
And as any remaining tension seeps away into the support beneath you.
Feel the release.
Each muscle,
Each tissue and each precious cell.
Let all that tension seep away.
And you have made it.
You are in the old world,
Cops.
And you are safe.
You are walking along a path in a secluded cops in a bright sunny summer morning.
You can hear each of your footsteps on the ground as you step across the leaves,
The pine needles and the twigs.
Soft springy moss lines the way and as you walk along a gentle breeze caresses your cheeks.
Listen to the bird song from above.
And as the trees blow in the breeze,
Listen to their leaves rustle and shake.
As you continue down the path,
Your mind clears with each step you take.
And the pure oxygen revitalizes you.
The red and golden leaves from above cast a golden glow upon your skin.
Now take a moment to stop and look around.
In front of you is a golden leaf that is gently floating down from above.
To rest on the path in front of you.
Watch as it shimmers in the rays of sun shooting through the leaves above.
This is a magical leaf.
Look closely.
There is the symbol of the new world etched in gold upon it.
There is something different about this place.
It is not like the rest of the old world.
Oh no.
This is your passage to somewhere new.
This is no ordinary leaf and these are no ordinary trees.
This is the old world cobs.
Each plant,
Each tree,
Each young shoot is infused with vitamins,
Minerals and purest water trickling down from the mountain streams.
So that they may become stronger and stronger still to feed us with the purest oxygen as we make our way through.
As you continue along the path you hear a babbling brook in the distance.
It's the crystal water.
The sun is reflecting upon them.
You step closer still.
The waters are gurgling and bubbling along,
Running along the edge of the cobs.
It is a pretty sound.
A calming sound.
Each step you take over the crackling red and golden leaves brings you closer still.
There are pine cones scattered over the ground in front of you and there are rustles in the bushes around.
These are the wild animals that are happy to see you come and join them.
The deeper you venture in,
The deeper into relaxation you are now falling.
Pause a while.
You can rest against that old oak tree.
Its bark looks surprisingly soft and the floor beneath it is covered in a soft bouncy moss.
You can rest here.
Take a seat and lean against the old oak tree.
It is waiting to support you.
You let the sun nourish you and the warm breeze drift through your hair and brush over your cheeks.
This is a peaceful place.
A magical place.
Beautiful as the majestic tree with its calmness and confidence.
Infuses all its qualities deep within you.
Allowing you to let go of all that has been troubling you.
It is time to relax and unwind.
Just let it all go now.
Let it drift away.
All those thoughts and troubles.
All those worries.
Let them drift away and feel the release as they leave your body.
There is no need to hold on to these thoughts.
We can let them go.
Allow your thoughts to float out into the atmosphere and see them for exactly what they are.
They are just thoughts.
They do not define you.
Just particles of dust that will vaporize into the air around you.
It is not your responsibility to hold on to them anymore.
Just let them go.
Can you feel the deep connection with the earth and the plants around you?
Enjoy the peace and the stillness for you are in the old world corpse.
The only place that connects the two worlds together.
The place where from time to time the folk of the new world come to forage and collect that which they need for their life in the new world.
You are starting to feel much calmer now.
The old oak tree has given you the strength to fully let go and embrace all that is around you.
This is a magical place,
A peaceful place.
Let the peace of the old world corpse wash over you and through you so you may become part of the very earth you sit upon.
Breathe deeply now and enjoy this moment.
In this magical place absorb all it has to offer you as time loses all meaning.
You are welcome here.
There is nothing to be afraid of.
You are safe here.
If you need to you can let any sorrow go and allow your heartache to float away from your body.
Watch as it fades away into the air about you.
That's it.
Let it all go.
This is your place and everything is okay.
And as the old world corpse becomes part of you and you of it you realise this is everything you have been waiting for.
Let the calming breeze move over you and through you and as the breeze becomes more intense let it blow away any last worry you may have.
There is nothing you need to do now and nowhere you need to go.
Here there is only space.
Space in which you can be who you need to be.
And as you immerse yourself in the wonder of the old world corpse allow yourself to bathe in its beauty,
Its warm nurturing glow that floats all around you and relax as you drift off into a calm and peaceful sleep.
