Hi and welcome to this relaxing sleep meditation for CEOs and high performers. This is a guided mindfulness meditation to help you relax, Unwind and assist you in getting a really deep sleep. So settle in now. Get really comfortable in your bed. Feather your nest. Relax your arms wherever feels comfortable for you. Relax your head on your pillow. And then when you are ready, Find a moment of stillness. Stillness in the sense that you resist the urge to wiggle or move. And stillness by focusing on the breath. Following the breath in and following the breath out. Following the breath in and following the breath out. Long days in the office. Being on the phone all the time. Working on your computer. Managing people. Attending and holding meetings. Discussions. And constantly being switched on. May come very natural to you. But resting your busy overactive mind may be a challenge. Having a never-ending to-do list. People that rely on you. Emails that had to be sent. Perhaps you're thinking of the upcoming meeting. And everything else that vies for your attention. Listening to guided meditation is a great way to let go of all these thoughts and get a good restorative sleep. Which is essential for your health and well-being. Making sure that you can be switched on again tomorrow. So anytime you feel you need a deep restorative sleep, You can come back to this practice. Feel how the body is becoming heavier now. Together, Let's take a deep breath in. Filling up your body with oxygen. And a slow, Effortless exhale. That's it. Allow the breath to just be natural. As you inhale, Invite in rest. As you exhale, Breathe out any tension. And release whatever is left of today. At this very moment, There is nothing else you need to do. There is no need to be anywhere but right here. With nothing to do, And nothing to accomplish. Just be. Right here. Right now. Just like you close all windows on a computer. As you shut down each tab, Give yourself permission to do the same for your day. Simply close each tab of today. Whatever you were working on, Whatever required your attention today, Just close the tab completely. Now that you have put everything else aside, It is time for deep, Deep rest. Let yourself sink into the bed, Feeling the gentle pull of gravity.
