Sleeping meditation.
Good evening,
This is Ana Barreto.
The day is over and you are ready to relax and sleep through the night.
As you prepare for this time of rest,
Close your eyes.
Let's take three deep breaths in through your nose and out through your mouth.
Find a comfortable position and adjust your pillow if needed.
You are going to have a restful night.
Take a deep breath.
Feeling the weight of your body sink into the surface beneath you.
You are safe.
You are protected.
You are ready to sleep deeply.
With each exhale,
You begin to let go of the day.
Just let go.
Focus on your breath.
Inhale slowly through your nose.
Exhale gently through your mouth.
Releasing any remaining stress of the day.
Allow each breath to deepen your relaxation.
Now come through your day and bring to mind every unresolved problem from your day.
You are ready to let everything go.
Imagine a gold trash can next to your bed.
With each breath,
Pick the problems of the day and toss them in the golden trash can one by one.
Think of the people who you struggle to relate to today.
With each breath,
You are ready to let them all go.
Toss them in the golden trash can.
You can let go of them now.
All issues are being handled.
Think of the problems you need to handle tomorrow.
With each breath,
Place them on your nightstand for the morning.
You have the time and solution available for you in the morning.
When you are done letting go of the problems and people,
Imagine putting the gold trash can outside of your home.
The higher powers will handle them.
Now come through your day and bring to mind three moments you can be grateful for,
However small.
Perhaps it was a kind word from a friend,
A task completed,
Or a beautiful bird that caught your eyes.
Allow yourself to linger on these three moments of gratitude.
Feel the warmth of appreciation spread through your body,
Starting from your feet up,
Rising up through your body,
And expanding the feeling of gratitude through your entire body.
There is a sense of peace,
Wellness,
And relaxation.
Let this feeling of gratitude wash over you,
Filling you with a sense of peace.
You are investing in yourself.
Trust the process.
As you prepare to drift towards sleep,
Carry this feeling of gratitude,
Relaxation,
And calm with you.
Let it infuse your dreams and rest in your subconscious mind.
Trust that while you sleep,
The universe is working with you,
For you.
I'm going to count from ten to one and guide you into a great night's sleep.
Ten.
With each breath,
You are sinking deeper into a peaceful,
Rejuvenating sleep.
Nine.
Your body is relaxing,
Becoming heavier and heavier,
And more comfortable with each passing moment.
Your mind is calming,
Letting go of all thoughts and worries.
Seven.
You are surrounded by an aura of gratitude and peace.
Six.
Breathe and feel gratitude enveloping you like a warm,
Comforting blanket.
Know that this energy of rest will stay with you throughout the night,
Nourishing you.
This energy will nourish your body and soul as you rest.
Three.
As you continue to relax,
Know that you will awaken refreshed,
Energized,
And open to your inner strength that awaits you tomorrow.
Two.
You can let go now and sleep.
Sleep now secure in the knowledge that you are safe and deeply connected to the infinite peace and joy of the universe.
Good night.
