Hello my friend.
My name is Samantha,
The Blissful Soul.
Welcome to this meditation.
This session is best listened to just before bedtime when you are able to rest fully.
I have a special treat for you tonight.
I'm lucky enough that Pablo Villegas,
Who is violinist,
Composer,
And multi-instrumentalist,
Allowed me to use one of his tracks in the background as you drift off.
I know you will find it delightful.
Pablo has many other music tracks on Insight Timer that I know you will enjoy,
Including ones to help you fall asleep.
So I will list his name in the details so you can use them to fall asleep in the future or to relax.
Now make sure that you are in a quiet,
Dimly lit room where you can safely relax,
Taking a few moments to become as comfortable as possible,
Covering your body with a blanket,
Adjusting your pillows,
And doing whatever you need to do to let your body know that it's bedtime.
As you settle in,
Allow your eyes to close and your breath is slow,
Slowing the mind down,
Too.
Now let's slow the body,
Inviting it to rest.
Begin to breathe a bit more deeply.
As you feel the weight of your body on your bed,
Telling your head to sink deeper into your pillow now.
Make sure that your mouth is gently parted and your forehead is smooth and relaxed.
It's time to rest.
Just enjoy this delightful music Pablo created for you to help you rest.
In this wonderful Insight Timer community that you are part of,
Feel grateful you are part of this greater good.
Tell your back to soften now,
Sinking deeply into your cushions,
And letting your body know it's time to rest.
If your body starts to shift or reposition at any point in this meditation,
That's okay.
It's natural.
Allow yourself to make adjustments as needed to ensure you're comfortable and relaxed.
Now it's time to drift,
Drifting away from anything going on outside of your body,
Drifting away from any sounds outside of this session,
Drifting away from your surroundings,
And drifting away from your stream of consciousness,
As you feel yourself diving deeply into the subconscious mind.
If you feel yourself drifting into sleep before this session ends,
That's okay.
Follow this urge.
You are here to sink into gratitude as you slip into sleep.
Follow this urge.
You are here to sink into gratitude as you slip into slumber.
Now feel your body rising,
Floating in the void of sleep.
The beautiful music created for you takes you up into the clouds.
You are floating above your bed,
Above your home,
Seeing your entire life from another point of view.
What does your life look like from here?
What do you see?
Perhaps you notice that your problems seem far away from this high.
Perhaps you notice that your problems seem far away from this high.
And you begin to feel far removed from the little concerns of everyday life.
Notice the aspects of your life that often go unnoticed,
Taken in the big picture.
Consider how everything works together perfectly.
Consider how everything works together perfectly.
Your body,
Mind,
And spirit work together,
Striving for a happy and fulfilled life.
You know that you can reach this fulfillment by simply accepting gratitude.
Imagine waving your arms over your life now,
Wiping the slate clean,
Clearing away any grudges and stagnant areas.
Take a deep breath in and release,
Creating a new appreciation for everyone and everything in your life.
Grateful for all of the people who are part of your experiences and memories.
Express an appreciation for every aspect of this beautiful life.
Appreciation for every breath in your lungs,
In every beat of your heart.
Appreciation for every breath in your lungs,
In every beat of your heart.
And of course,
Grateful for this chance to rest with this beautiful music created by Pablo,
Just for you,
For you to relax and get ready for slumber.
Drift off now,
Allowing your body and mind to go in any direction they would like to.
Drifting over your life and playing the role of gentle observer,
Watching without judgment or negativity.
Simply observing with an open heart.
Feel yourself drifting into sleep,
Letting go of any visuals or thoughts,
Letting go of any visuals in your mind's eye.
Releasing thought,
Allowing the mind to rest.
Allow your breath to flow quickly and effortlessly.
Come back into your body once more.
Feel your cushions beneath you.
Feel the air against your skin.
Feel safe and secure in your room.
Feel comfortable here in your bed.
Remind yourself with the words,
I am completely relaxed and ready to sleep now.
I am grateful for mind and body.
And I am thankful for this opportunity to rest and immerse deeply in this peaceful music.
If you have not already done so,
Feel free to continue to drift off.
Your eyes are getting heavy.
Everything is on hold for now.
It is your time to rest and your self-care.
Enjoy this time for you.
I will let you enjoy this beautiful music created by Pablo so you can fully relax.
If you fall asleep during that time,
That is perfect.
You can always come back and find the details of his creations.
It will be here,
Waiting for you to create another peaceful night.
So relax and enjoy this music.
