Settle into your bed. Feeling the support of your mattress. Feeling its warmth and its softness. Close your eyes gently and withdraw your senses. Your hearing, Your sense of touch and your vision. And bring your awareness to your body. Gently scan your body from head to toe. And if you notice any tension in your jaw, Your neck or shoulders or your back, Release the tension and let go of all tightness. Feel your muscles relax, Your mind quiet and your breath slowing down and becoming steady. Visualize a peaceful image in front of your closed eyes. Perhaps a calm ocean, A starry night or a field of white flowers. Paint this picture as detailed as possible. Feel every corner with colors. Smelling all the scents that are available. And hearing all the sounds of your peaceful image. Allow your image to lull you into a state of deep relaxation and repeat these affirmations to yourself. I am ready for a restful night's sleep. My body and mind are relaxed and at ease. I will sleep soundly through the night. I will wake up feeling refreshed and energized. I am ready for a restful night's sleep.
