In a moment,
You will begin to feel very relaxed.
This is a slow paced meditation for relaxation and sleep.
Allow your mind to drift as you will experience warmth,
Calmness and a deeply relaxing state of mind and body.
As you listen to this meditation,
Let your imagination fill in the blanks of the words that you will hear.
The more you visualize the words,
The more you will immerse yourself,
Thus relieving mind chatter,
Tension,
Stress and anything holding you back from fully relaxing.
If you are ready,
Begin by closing your eyes.
Allow your breathing cycle to settle in its own time and it can do so at any point in this meditation.
Focus your awareness around the circumference of your neck and shoulders,
Allowing your head to gently lean back and your mind to drift off.
Don't worry if you feel you are not doing it right,
Just do what feels comfortable for you.
Begin to feel a sensation of warmth in between the base of your head and your shoulders.
Imagine a hot stone being placed there,
The warmth of the stone begins to radiate and becomes warmer and warmer as you start to let go.
As you begin to relax,
You may feel a loosening sensation around your neck area and perhaps also around the tops of your shoulders.
With everything being peaceful in this moment,
Your awareness of the loosening of your neck muscles increases,
Almost feeling as though there is a light weight of warmth resting gently there.
Every muscle eases in that area.
As your shoulders start to melt,
Drawing relaxation deep down to the muscle tissue,
Your breathing starts to settle.
As the focus of your awareness is brought to your breath,
Two more hot stones are placed on your shoulder blades.
As you feel the warmth of these stones,
Any tightness in the muscles in these areas immensely softens.
Take a moment,
Allowing the warmth of the stones to radiate across your upper back to slowly moving down your sides.
Breathing more peacefully now,
Your mind floats into a clear state where you can focus your energy completely on yourself.
As you feel a healing relief of pure bliss from a detachment of reality,
Another stone is placed at the base of your spine.
Every breath now calmer and more settled.
Every thought now of bliss and tranquility.
Your spine,
From top to bottom,
Now aligns into a position of comfort.
As the warmth of the stone soothes and softens your lower back,
Any tension around your rib cage,
Your sides and abdomen disperses.
Heaviness begins to take over your upper body as you find your position of serenity.
Along with the warmth,
You find comfort,
Safety and contentment.
Each passing moment now a peaceful transition into more restful thoughts and feelings.
As the feeling of warmth continues downwards,
So too does the sensation of heaviness.
As a hot stone is placed on the back of your thighs,
Your whole body beginning to descend downwards,
As every muscle transcends into a softer version of itself.
Clearer and calmer your mind becomes,
Softer and heavier your body becomes.
The tops of your legs now unwind and as the warmth penetrates deep down,
Not only do the backs of your legs loosen,
That warm sensation slowly wraps around the whole of each leg.
Breathing sleepier and more relaxed in every second,
Your looseness becomes more intense as another hot stone is placed on the soles of each foot.
Nothing seems to matter in this moment except the tranquility and serenity that you experience.
As the warmth of those stones on your feet radiate through and to the other side,
Your whole body becomes heavier.
Relaxing deeply,
Breathing peacefully,
Your awareness dismisses anything of the outside world.
Letting go completely now,
You sense a large stone being placed on your toes.
Each foot melts to the pleasant sensation of comfort that tingles within each toe.
Your breathing becomes easier and more restful as you loose yourself in every calm moment.
Just as you feel you have relaxed as deeply as you can,
You feel a hot stone being placed in the palms of each hand.
Still quiet,
Peaceful and serene,
Your whole body loosens immensely.
From head to toe,
Each area of your body has relaxed to an immeasurable blissness.
As you let go more and more,
You become sleepier.
Your mind is now quiet,
Consumed with the tranquility that you experience as your whole face droops downwards from the peacefulness.
Every part of your body descending downwards as any stresses or worries just melt away.
Sinking deeply into your bed,
Your breathing slows and settles.
Warm,
Safe and content,
The outside world matters not as it completely fades out of your consciousness.
Every breath out relaxes your chest as you bathe in the warmth that you feel.
Drifting and tuning out,
You fall fast asleep.
