Thank you for joining me this evening to release the energy from your day and ease into a deep,
Restorative sleep.
As we begin,
I invite you to take a few moments to make yourself comfortable,
Feeling your bed supporting your body,
And as you become more still,

And your best is getting better and better all the time.
Now is your time to rest,
Allowing your body and mind to become more peaceful,
Calm,
And serene,
Surrendering to the process of change that happens while the conscious mind is asleep.
