Transcript

Good evening I am Anna Borreto and tonight I invite you to release the weight of the day One breath at a time Close your eyes Adjust your pillows Adjust your body And welcome infinite peace into your bedroom Into your bed Into your mattress Into your sheets Into your pillows and cover Take three deep breaths We live in a world that glorifies busyness Crossing off Pushing through and doing one more thing before we finally allow ourselves to rest We tend to bring our day into the bedroom But not tonight Tonight we welcome this space with ease and flow Tonight we remember a different truth Sleep is not an interruption of our lives It is a sacred bridge between who we were today and who we are becoming tomorrow Here we open and are ready to restore our body and spirit Here is where the physical world softens its grip And something deeper,

Something eternal,

Something sacred can breathe through us Are you ready to release your day?

Not because you earn it Not because you've done enough But because rest is your birthright And peace is always available to you As we prepare to sleep we are not abandoning our responsibilities or our dreams We are surrendering to the current of consciousness that carries all things We are connecting with the deeper parts of our personality,

Our heart,

Our dreams without obligation Tonight we are remembering that we are not separate from the rhythm of life itself The rhythm that knows when to grow and when to restore,

When to reach and when to receive Tonight we welcome our self-worth,

Our deservedness,

Our rest As you go to sleep tonight repeat this silent mantra It's also a prayer You can whisper or you can repeat it in your mind Take a deep breath I rest in trust I sleep in peace Awake in alignment I rest in trust I sleep in peace I awake in alignment I rest in trust I sleep in peace I awake in alignment You deserve to rest I rest in trust I sleep in peace I awake in alignment I rest in trust I sleep in peace I awake in alignment I rest in trust I sleep in peace I awake in alignment I rest in trust I sleep in peace I awake in alignment I rest in trust I sleep in peace I awake in alignment I rest in trust I sleep in peace I awake in alignment I rest in trust I sleep in peace I awake in alignment I rest in trust I sleep in peace I awake in alignment I rest in trust I sleep in peace I awake in alignment Sleep well,

My friend.
