Welcome to your sleep meditation.
My name is Elena and tonight my voice will guide you into restful,
Peaceful sleep.
This relaxing meditation practice will improve the quality of your sleep and experience best results.
I recommend listening to this meditation every night as you are about to go to bed for 30 days in a row.
During the 30 day period you will create a peaceful bedtime routine and it will continue to support your sleep even during the challenging times.
You don't have to focus on every word,
Just let your awareness rest and let yourself fall asleep to my voice.
Let's begin.
We are about to travel beyond the impressions of your day,
Beyond thought,
Beyond time,
Into a peaceful desert beneath a vast starry sky.
This is a place of deep stillness,
A place where the world quiets and where the shimmering stars welcome you into the world of magic.
In a moment,
Not yet,
But in just a moment,
Your body is going to melt into a complete relaxation,
Your awareness will gently turn inward and your whole being will dissolve into deep healing rest.
We will explore sensations in your body,
The restful rhythm of your breath and release tension and effort layer by layer until you are floating in the space between peaceful relaxation,
Sleep and dreaming.
Tonight is a sacred homecoming,
A return to the timeless peace within you,
An invitation to remember that you are always safe,
Held and loved,
You are infinite,
Just like the starry sky.
So before we begin,
Take a moment now to make yourself very,
Very comfortable.
This is your time,
A sacred moment to let the day go.
So step gently out of the noise of the world and into the stillness of your inner space.
Feel free to shift your body gently,
Adjust the covers,
Tuck yourself into a perfect position,
Create your own little cocoon of warmth,
Like a desert fox in his quiet burrow beneath the stars.
Imagine yourself nestled in a soft cradle of safety,
The world outside fading like a distant dream,
This space is yours,
This rest is your birthright,
Now take a deep breath in and a long,
Slow exhale.
As your breath begins to settle into a sweet,
Relaxed,
Grounded rhythm,
Your mind will begin to drift.
Feel the support beneath you,
Feel the weight of your body being held and know that you don't need to hold yourself up anymore,
You are supported here so you can let go and surrender,
You are forever held.
Now bring to mind a memory or a place that makes you feel completely safe,
Calm and at ease.
This is your inner sanctuary,
Your inner resource,
It might be real or imagined,
A cozy cottage by the lake,
A warm embrace of someone you love,
A golden light at sunset by the ocean or in the forest,
Feel it with all your senses,
See it,
Know that you can return to this inner sanctuary anytime with a single breath,
Let it anchor you in peace and safety,
Let it be your resting ground.
Now you'll witness your awareness move through the body,
Helping every part relax,
Release and dissolve into rest,
Let your awareness rest on the right thumb,
Index finger,
Middle finger,
Ring finger,
Little finger,
Palm of the hand,
Back of the hand,
Wrist,
Forearm,
Shoulder,
Right hip,
Sole of the foot,
Front of the foot,
Right toes,
Big toe,
Second toe,
Third toe,
Fourth toe and fifth toe,
All right toes together,
Let your awareness rest on the left thumb,
Index finger,
Middle finger,
Ring finger,
Little finger,
Palm of the hand,
Palm of the hand,
Back of the hand,
Wrist,
Elbow,
Upper arm,
Shoulder,
Armpit,
Left hip,
Knee,
Lower leg,
Ankle,
Heel,
Sole of the foot,
Front of the foot,
Left toes,
Big toe,
Second toe,
Third toe,
Fourth toe and fifth toe,
All left toes together,
Now your awareness is going to travel through the whole back of your body,
All parts of your body resting on the ground,
Letting the body melt even deeper,
Completely surrendering to the support of the ground beneath you and now letting your awareness travel through the whole front of the body,
All parts of your body facing outward,
Letting your awareness travel through your face,
Then feel your whole right arm,
Feel your whole left arm,
Both arms together,
Bring your awareness to the whole right leg,
The whole left leg,
Bring your awareness to both legs together,
Bring your awareness to the whole torso,
The whole back and now your whole body at once,
Feel your whole body at once,
Your whole body at once,
Now let your whole body begin to soften and relax,
The forehead softening,
The eyes growing heavy,
The cheeks releasing,
The jaw unhinging slightly,
Let the throat and jaw soften and melt into relaxation,
The chest widen,
The belly soften and rise gently with the breath,
Now down through the hips,
The thighs,
All the way to the feet,
The entire body now,
As your body begins to relax,
You notice a shimmering veil in the air before you,
Like a curtain of starlight,
Rippling gently in the breeze and with your next breath you step through it,
As you do the world begins to soften,
Sounds grow distant,
Thoughts begin to melt,
Suddenly you're standing under a vast desert sky where time moves differently and peace is endless,
Now standing at the end of an open desert,
The sky above is beginning to turn indigo,
The first stars are lighting up one by one and shining brighter,
As the sky is turning indigo blue,
The sand stretches out endlessly before you,
Soft under your feet,
Still warm from the sun,
A blanket has been laid out for you,
Cozy,
Inviting,
And perfectly placed,
As if the earth itself prepared it,
Knowing you were coming,
You walk towards it slowly,
Step by step and gently lie down,
The air is cool now,
Whispering across your skin,
You tuck the blanket around yourself,
Creating your desert nest and feel the ground holding you,
Steady,
You can stay here by yourself or invite someone you love to join you,
Above you,
The stars bloom into being,
Thousands,
Millions,
A cosmic ocean stretching far beyond what the eyes can see,
You are just as vast,
As you breathe,
You feel your body melting into the earth beneath you,
You are no longer separate from the sand or the wind or in the sky,
You are awareness,
Pure,
Unbound,
Loving awareness,
You are now entering the quantum field,
The space of infinite possibilities,
Where the personality dissolves and only presence remains,
You are no one,
No thing,
Nowhere,
Here in this cosmic stillness,
Healing happens on every level,
Your cells are listening,
Your nervous system is rewiring,
Your spirit is remembering its infinite origin,
Let yourself be breathed by the universe,
The stars remind you how vast and timeless peace can be,
That you too are eternal,
That nothing is missing and nothing needs to be fixed,
Here,
In the stillness of the desert,
You are dissolving into a deeper kind of rest,
Not just sleep,
But return,
The remembrance of your wholeness,
Of your essence,
Let every breath take you deeper,
Let every exhale carry away the dust of thought,
You are resting in the silence,
Between heartbeats,
Between stars,
Nothing to do,
Nowhere to go,
Pure being,
Pure love,
Pure peace,
Now,
As your body sleeps,
Your soul begins to dream,
Let yourself drift beyond the desert,
Into the dream field,
The beautiful realm where consciousness dances,
Where wisdom arrives in symbols,
And where your higher self is waiting to greet you,
You are safe,
You are guided,
You are infinite,
And in the morning,
You will awaken restored,
To the beautiful vastness,
