And maybe your thoughts are filled with worry and anxiety or maybe it's just excitement. And so I do this breathing technique quite often. I feel it too. And so I hope this meditation helps you slow down and also find ease with your body so that you can drift off into a deep sleep. And as you lay here, See if you can get just a little bit more comfortable. And close your eyes if that feels okay. Take a slow, Normal breath in through your nose. Exhale, Let it go. Gently bring awareness to your head. Noticing the part of your head or maybe your face, How it's meeting the pillow. Feel your entire body just drop into your bed, Feeling really grounded and held. Feeling the weight of your shoulders relaxing down. Breathe in as you exhale. Feel every muscle in your body relax. Feeling your torso, Your arms, Your low back and your hips, Your legs, All the way down to your ankles and your feet. Feel your being just pull down into the bed, Your support, The coziness, The warmth. Finding comfort in this moment. Noticing any resistance, Any urge to adjust. Breathe in. Exhale.
