Welcome to this slow,

Soft and relaxing gentle meditation.

In a moment,

The music will change to something more suited in reflecting this time that you have chosen for yourself.

Taking moments to ground,

Relax and contemplate the present is an important habit to have,

One which will leave you clear minded and attaining a state of peace.

Please make sure that the area you are listening in is as quiet as can be,

With distractions as minimal as possible.

Relax the best you can in this moment,

Allow your muscles to weigh down a little as you become conscious of any areas of tension.

Inhaling a nice,

Slow,

Deep fresh breath of oxygen,

Fill your lungs comfortably to capacity and release a little slower to allow the tops of your arms,

Your shoulders and chest to loosen a little bit.

This time is just for you,

Relax down now as your journey to bringing calmness,

Relaxation and peace is about to begin.

As you lay there,

Presently unattached to any thought,

Allowing your body to relax as every second passes.

Take notice of your breathing,

Feel the silky circular pattern of inhaling and exhaling as your chest recycles each breath,

Breathing positivity inward and expelling negativity out.

Your skin feels soft,

The surface you lay upon is comforting.

You rest your head,

Neck and shoulders back further,

With each soothing breath that you take.

Gently closing your eyes,

Rest down more now.

As your mind begins to visualise,

Laying on a most comfortable sun lounger,

On a cruise ship,

Sailing freely on the open seas.

A very warm breeze is felt on your skin,

Particularly on your forearms,

Face and feet,

Which relaxes your toes in the process.

This cruise ship is on course to a peaceful group of islands that are used for blissful getaways.

The ships passengers only consist of quiet,

Calm people that also are looking for their inward peace.

As you lay in your sun lounger,

The warm sun kisses your skin,

Perhaps giving you that tingling sensation of comfortable heat.

You can very faintly hear the occasional wash of the ocean as the ship glides on its surface.

There is no chatter to be heard,

The only sounds you hear are of the slight buzz the engines emit and of course the water below.

Up above,

As you look into a very deep blue sky,

You see the odd occasional fluffy white thin cloud pass by.

Everything is quiet,

Calm and effective in bringing your emotions,

Your sensitivities and peaceful thoughts of being present to the forefront of your focus.

Looking still,

You watch as the occasional fluffy white clouds continue to pass by,

Quietly and silently.

You feel the slight sway of the ship,

Rocking from side to side,

Also with a gentle upward and downward motion.

Continuing to observe the calm sky above,

The sensations you experience of movement help to make you feel heavy,

Relaxed and very much at peace.

You are warm and content with everything you sense,

Loosening your muscles in this time that is just for you.

Be present in this moment,

Enjoying the freedom of feeling every pleasant and pleasing sensation that you now bask in.

There is no need to explore,

There is no need to move,

Your mind and body is most comfortable where it now rests.

This time that you now feel with everything that you are is soothing and the sense of relief in bathing in all positive aspects of this moment relax you more.

As the ships movements ground your mind,

Your body also feels the effects.

Feel the weight of gravity as the ship glides over every wave felt in your feet,

Sensing them becoming heavier.

That sensation of relaxed freedom as your feet magnetise to your sun lounger loosens every toe.

The warm breeze smoothly glides between each toe,

Allowing any tension to be released effortlessly.

As you grow accustomed,

Noticing how your feet and toes are unwinding,

That soft,

Slow and present sensation can be felt in your ankles.

Each ankle breathing out its own tension by releasing and unlocking each foot automatically.

Now as you relax more,

Your breathing begins and continues to further deepen,

Allowing for longer and calmer breaths.

As you weigh down your own anchor in this present moment,

A slow and somewhat soothing feeling of warmth,

Heaviness and peace is experienced in your calf muscles.

Tingling from the warmth of the sun,

Each pleasant breath helps to deflect any incoming negative thought.

You are not concerned about anything else right now,

Except how truly relaxed you are beginning and continuing to feel.

Go deeper,

Feeling the weight of comfort in your thighs and hips,

A bliss of relief as your legs,

Ankles and feet completely let go.

Nothing is a distraction as you absorb this pleasing atmosphere,

From the sounds that you hear to the sensations of being ever so content.

With your eyelids becoming heavier and heavier,

Your back descends down into the sun lounger that you lay upon.

Your every need is taken care of in this moment.

You are at peace,

As the last of any tension disperses from your abdomen,

Leaving all and every worry behind.

Your mind clears to accept every positive sensation.

Breathing a deeper and longer breath in a relaxed and comfortable rhythm,

Your chest,

Rib cage and the tops of your arms melt down in this moment.

Each lash of the oceans waves below send you deeper relaxed,

The white noise comforting your mind into a space of rest and sleep.

You can relax completely now,

Let go of anything holding you back.

This is your time to recuperate and regenerate energy.

As the ship slides upon the surface of the ocean,

You too glide into a sleepier state of comfortable positivity,

Each breath helping your shoulders to rest down,

Each wave below allowing you to become heavier and the warm breeze lulling you to sleep.

Every clean inhalation of fresh air washes your lungs to relaxation.

From the tops of your arms releasing,

Your shoulders,

Arms and wrists lay heavily rested,

Automatically weighing down in the pleasant space that you find yourself in.

A mind space of clearness,

Freedom and peace is now all you experience as you begin to drift in and out with the washing waves that pass your ship.

As the last thoughts of this moment fade off away from your mind,

Your neck and head sink down.

Don't go of any state of awareness,

Only consumed by positive and comforting images formed in your imagination.

Allow your mind to wander further into any soothing visualisation you experience,

Going deeper with each and every breath that you take.

Your whole body now warm,

Still and silent as you slip heavier into a restful and sleepy state.

The warm breeze blows away any distraction whilst you lay absorbing every peaceful moment in rest and sleep.

No more thinking for today,

Your mind is clear to think only positive things as you go down deeper to a space of sleep.

This smooth ride of silence silkily glides you across time and space into the most pleasing comfort you have ever felt.

Your skin feeling soft,

Your muscles as relaxed as can be,

Your mind clear of thought to sleep a soothing sleep.

As you delve further into sleep,

With heavy eyelids,

You imagine your ship floating away from a land of tension,

Awareness and thought.

As you visualise this in your mind,

You think how much closer you are to a place that provides the ultimate in peace and comfort.

As each thought enters your mind and imagination,

You allow it to pass,

Dissolved by more pleasing thoughts.

You allow every muscle to relax further as you go deeper into a very pleasing sensation felt throughout your mind and body.

Your already comfortable breathing pattern and relaxed muscles are soothed down to an even more calm state as you let go completely.

No chatter in your mind,

Only sleep filled positive thoughts that help you to drift off further.

No tension in your body,

Only soft relaxed sensations of being content in every way.

You let go more as each second passes in this highly soothing moment of relief.

Each breath sending you heavier floats along the smooth ocean towards the destination you see in your mind.

As you drift off more,

You see a faint image of a beautiful sand filled beach which glistens in the sun,

And palm trees that barely move from only a soft warm breeze.

In your imagination,

You see the gentle white wash of soft ocean waves licking the shore and as it recedes back,

You feel yourself become and continue to be heavier.

The sky you see is the deepest mist of blues you have ever seen,

Clear without a cloud in sight,

Like that of your mind as you slip further into drifting off,

Relaxed and calm.

Take this image with you as you slip further into a sleepier state.

You can interact with the scene of this beautiful destination as you see fit,

And as you do,

You relax,

Exploring and feeling at peace.

As the ship continues to make its way across the ocean to the destination you visualise in your mind,

You rest down and completely

Christian’s voice is soothing and relaxing. I rarely ever hear even the middle of the story.

Really love the descriptions and flow of this delightful meditation- really enjoy the movement portrayed, the sounds and of course his great soothing voice! ***** 5 Stars for sure!!

Your visualizations and imagery are wonderful, thank you so much. 🙏💫

So restful... The only cruise ship I have ever been on was very hopped up and full of activity but this one was peaceful and quiet and lovely.! I i haven't made it to the end despite my normal insomnia. I love Christian's meditations . MORE please !

I have listened to this over a dozen times now and not made it through to the end. This is the most effective sleep meditation I have used. Soothing voice, music and waves lulls me to sleep every time.

What a pleasant journey! I’ve always felt relaxed on a cruise ship in a way that few other experiences offer. How wonderful to explore a calming and self-restorative meditation practice aboard a ship in my mind. Great narration and music make this a really fantastic practice. Thank you!

As a follower on YouTube, it is a joy to find you on insight too. A beautifully soothing sleep meditation, as always. Thanks. Will come back to this and look forward to seeing more.

Thank you for sharing 💜

Thank you Christian. That had the desired effect. I have to share this with you. I have been on holiday & had a "fight" with a sunlounger resulting in septic wound on shin. When I heard the word sunlounger I thought....oh no! However, second time round the fear had almost gone! I will listen again.
