Welcome to your journey towards a deeper,
More restful sleep.
As we embark on this tranquil voyage,
Allow yourself to settle into comfort.
Feel the surface beneath you supporting your body,
Cradling you into relaxation.
With each breath you take,
Let go of the day's worries,
Letting them drift away,
Like clouds in a searing sky.
Now imagine a gentle wave of relaxation,
Starting at the very top of your head,
Slowly moving down,
A warm sensation.
As it glides over your forehead,
Your eyes,
Feel the muscles there soften and relax.
This wave,
Carrying with it pure calmness,
Continues to flow over your neck,
Your shoulders,
Releasing any tension held there.
With each breath,
This wave travels further down,
Relaxing your chest,
Your arms,
All the way to your fingertips.
Picture yourself in a beautiful,
Peaceful garden.
The air is filled with the soft fragrance of flowers,
And a gentle rustle of leaves in the breeze.
The sky above is a canvas of twilight.
Feelings begin to twinkle into existence.
As you walk through this garden,
Feel the grass beneath your feet,
Cool and soft.
With each step,
You sink deeper into relaxation,
Deeper into the tranquil world.
In the heart of the garden,
You find a comfortable,
Inviting hammock strung between two ancient trees.
You lie down in it,
Feeling it embrace you with comfort.
The hammock rocks gently in perfect harmony with your breath.
With every gentle sway,
You feel more relaxed,
More ready to surrender to sleep.
As you rest in this peaceful place,
A sense of sleepiness begins to wash over you.
It is a warm,
Comforting feeling,
Inviting you to let go completely.
You may feel like yearning right now.
Your eyelids grow heavy,
And with every breath,
You feel more inclined to close them,
To drift off into a deep,
Restorative sleep.
Imagine now that with each number I count down from ten,
You feel twice as sleepy,
Twice as ready to fall into a deep sleep.
Ten,
Feeling so calm,
So relaxed.
Nine,
Your eyelids heavier with each number.
Eight,
Sinking into the embrace of sleep.
Seven,
So peaceful,
So serene.
Six,
Letting go of all awareness.
Five,
Halfway into darkness,
Into rest.
Four,
Embracing the quiet of sleep.
Three,
Almost there,
Feeling so sleepy.
Two,
Surrendering to sleep.
One,
You are now deeply asleep.
In this state of deep sleep,
Your mind and body are rejuvenating,
Healing.
Know that you will wake up feeling refreshed,
Energized,
After a night of profound rest.
But for now,
Just sleep.
Sleep.
Sleep.
Let the gentle rhythm of your breath guide you through a night of peaceful and interrupted sleep.
You are safe.
You are relaxed.
And you are deeply asleep.
Sweet dreams.
Namaste.
