Are you ready to meditate with Kori?
Are you ready to be as still as you possibly can?
It's time to slow down your world.
Slow down your body and slow down your busy mind so that we can rest and relax and feel really good before we fall to sleep.
It doesn't matter what kind of day you've had.
It could have been the bestest day in the world.
It could have been a horrible day.
It doesn't matter.
Right now all we're going to do is get a hold of your most favorite teddy.
Your squishy,
Your favorite toy,
Maybe you have a snuggly blanket rather than a toy.
It doesn't matter what.
It could even be one of your pillows on your bed.
Just grab a hold of it and pull it into your heart,
Pull it into your body as if you're giving it a hug for this meditation.
Snuggling tightly into whatever you're holding.
Close your eyes.
Listen to my voice.
Listen to the music.
Let's relax.
Take a big deep breath in all the way down to your tummy.
Really big breath and then breathe it out.
Take another big deep breath into your tummy,
Bigger than the last one,
So big and then breathe it out.
With this final breath,
Imagine you're breathing in a big,
Big,
Big breath,
Enough to blow up a big air balloon.
Breathe it all the way down to your tummy.
Biggest one yet.
And then breathe out.
Did you notice when you breathe out how your shoulders fall and relax?
Did you notice when you breathe in how your tummy expands and gets full?
Breathe in your normal breathing now,
Just in and out,
But see if you can notice your shoulders relaxing.
See if you can notice your tummy expanding.
I want you to imagine that your breathing is connected to your snuggle buddy's breathing.
So every time you breathe out,
Whatever you're snuggling,
Breathes out.
And every time you breathe in,
Whatever you're snuggling and cuddling,
Breathes into.
Like you're connected to each other.
You're relaxing each other just by snuggling.
Whenever you relax something on your body,
Imagine that relaxation is transferring into your snuggle buddy.
So every time you whittle your toes,
Your snuggle buddy mirrors you.
Even if they don't have toes,
It doesn't matter.
Just pretend.
So when you let your feet start to feel heavy and comfortable,
So,
So heavy,
Imagine that your snuggle buddy's feet are feeling just the same.
So your body's are relaxing at the same pace.
Relaxing your feet now.
Your toes relax.
Imagine your ankles softening and relaxing.
Try and stay as still as you can.
As still as a mouse.
It seems a funny thing to say,
As most of the time mice aren't very still.
But let's pretend we're a tiny little mouse.
Maybe we heard a noise and we're being still.
As still as we can.
Relaxing your legs.
Maybe you've been running and playing hard today and now you can finally be still so that your legs can just relax and soften like jelly into your bed.
Imagine your tummy and your back are super relaxed.
Time feels so heavy and sleepy inside.
Your snuggle buddy,
Their tummy is very,
Very soft and relaxed.
And just as hard as you're snuggling your buddy,
Your buddy is snuggling you back.
It's like you both need the hugs right now.
The hugs are making you feel safe and loved.
The hugs make you feel all warm inside.
Like there's nothing wrong at all.
Everything is okay.
You're feeling happy right now in this moment.
Your arms start to feel very,
Very heavy.
They soften just a little bit around your buddy.
But not enough to let go.
You're still cuddling each other.
But you notice that your snuggle buddy's arms are softening a little bit too.
Your arms are tired just like yours.
You relax your shoulders.
And they relax their shoulders.
You're feeling very comfortable and safe.
Very snuggly and happy.
All the tiny little muscles in your face relax.
Your eyes are so,
So heavy and closed now.
Neither of you would even want to open them.
Your cheeks relax.
Your jaw relaxes.
Your snuggle buddy is so comfortable and happy being hugged by you.
Remember,
It doesn't have to be a thing.
It could just be your pillow or your blanket.
But with a little bit of imagination,
You can imagine that you're getting the bestest hugs right now.
Those kind of hugs that make time stand still.
Because you feel so good inside.
Everything feels perfect.
Those kind of hugs where you could fall asleep so easily.
You're relaxed.
You're so sleepy anyway because you've had a busy day.
All is well in the world.
Your whole body is heavy now.
You're still and very,
Very quiet.
All you can hear is your breathing.
See if you listen very closely.
You can feel and hear your heartbeat.
The world outside is going to sleep.
The stars in the sky are shining down,
Guiding their way.
The animals are all going to sleep.
All the flowers have closed up for the night.
All the tiny little insects.
Everyone is comfortable and quiet and sleepy,
Just like you and your snuggle buddy.
The world slows down when it goes dark.
The magical dreams start to happen.
All of the magic is floating in the air.
And in all the girls and boys have the best dreams.
But we have to be asleep to dream.
We have to let our bodies completely surrender.
Surrender into the abyss of magical dreams.
Now go to sleep my little friend.
You have a world full of people that love you.
You have a world full of people that love you.
You have a world full of people that love you.
You have a world full of people that love you.
You have a world full of people that love you.
You have a world full of people that love you.
You have a world full of people that love you.
You have a world full of people that love you.
You have a world full of people that love you.
You have a world full of people that love you.

You have a world full of people that love you.
You have a world full of people that love you.
