Lay down in your bed.
Feel the softness beneath you.
Close your eyes and take a deep breath in.
As you release,
Let your arms and legs grow heavy.
Let your face soften.
Let your breath slow down.
You are safe now.
You are held.
You can let everything go.
Feel your body slowly melting into the bed.
With each breath out,
You release a day.
Every thought softening.
Every worry dissolving.
Every tension unwinding.
Breathe in peace and breathe out everything else.
Breathe in light.
Breathe out weight.
Now imagine above you the night sky stretches open.
Deep indigo.
Speckled with endless tender stars.
One star begins to glow brighter.
A soft golden pink light.
And slowly,
Gently it begins to lower itself toward you.
It floats down and down and down.
Hovering just above your heart.
You feel its warmth,
Its kindness,
Its ancient familiarity.
This star speaks to your heart,
Not with words,
But with feeling.
You are safe to let go.
You are safe to drift.
You are safe to fall back into the arms of the universe.
With every breath,
This star begins to melt into you.
It becomes a gentle river of golden pink light.
Flowing into your chest,
Into your belly,
Your arms,
Your legs.
You are glowing now,
Softly,
Gently,
Like a star that has come to rest.
Feel yourself becoming lighter.
Floating.
Not falling,
Floating.
Like a leaf on a soft current of air.
Like a paddle carried by a gentle breeze.
You are no longer tied to the heavy world of thoughts.
You are floating in the quiet river of dreams.
Every breath takes you deeper into softness.
Deeper into peace.
Deeper.
Deeper.
Deeper.
Deeper into peace.
Whisper inside yourself as you drift.
I am safe.
I am loved.
I am home.
Now let go completely.
You do not need to guide yourself anymore.
You are being carried by the earth,
By the stars,
By the great song of life that never ends.
Let the river of sleep take you.
Let it carry you home.
And you float.
And you drift and drift and drift.
And you dissolve into the heart of the universe,
Where only love,
Peace and wholeness remain.
Sleep well,
Beautiful soul.
You are held,
Always.
