Hello,
My name is Heather and the following sleep meditation is going to be a guided visualization of a visit to a luxury spa.
If you're not a visual person,
Please don't worry because we're going to use all our senses for this experience.
Now whether you have actually spent an hour at a luxury spa or whether you just feel like you have because you imagined it,
Science tells us that the result in terms of what's happening in the brain and nervous system is almost identical.
So lay back,
Relax and let yourself just drift away as you focus your attention gently on the sound of my voice.
This meditation is designed to guide you down whenever you're ready into a deep,
Peaceful,
Healing,
Restorative sleep.
So please don't listen while you're driving.
So just lie down and get yourself as comfortable as you can in a position ready for sleep.
Just notice how your body feels and see if you want to make any tiny movements to make yourself even 5 or 10% more comfortable.
I want you to take a deep breath in through your nose and breathe out.
And again,
Take a deep breath in and last time together as you allow your eyes to just drift closed,
Float closed.
Take another deep breath in and breathe out.
And now just allow your breath to return to its natural rhythm and let your eyes relax completely,
All the muscles in your face relax,
Your shoulders,
Your arms and legs,
Maybe even feeling just a little bit heavier as you allow yourself to relax.
Our journey today is going to take place in the beautiful city of light,
Paris.
It's been a busy but happy day visiting the sites and it's the end of the afternoon.
And now you're heading back to your hotel where you've booked a healing treatment at the world famous Luxury Spa.
You're walking towards the front of the hotel,
It looks warm and bright inside.
The porter sees you and holds the door open and welcomes you in.
As you step inside this calm haven,
Away from the hustle and bustle,
You notice the most wonderful perfume in the air.
It seems to be a mix of some of your favorite scents,
Maybe some essential oils.
And there are some beautiful flowers decorating the lobby.
You notice that these are some of your favorite flowers in the most beautiful colors and you're just really appreciating how wonderful everything looks and feels.
Maybe you are enjoying traveling alone or maybe you're with someone else who you love to be with.
If you are with someone it's easy and fun and you're just so happy to be together.
And you're starting to move towards the lifts on the left hand side of the lobby.
You're just going to pop up to your room and drop off your coats and bags before you head to the spa.
Just as you arrive in front of the lift,
The doors open as if by magic and you step inside.
It's large and bright and there's that same beautiful scent again.
The buttons in the lift go from 1 to 11.
You're right up on the top floor so you press number 11 and are taken swiftly up to your floor.
You step out of the lift and make your way to the hotel room.
The number on the door in bright gold digits is 111.
You like that number.
You swipe your card in the lock and the door opens quickly and easily with a click.
You're delighted to see that the room has been cleaned and tidied while you were out.
The sheets are white and crisp and fresh and the room looks so inviting and comfortable.
You're looking forward to coming back here later to rest but for now you're just going to drop off your bag,
Take off your coat and head back down to the ground floor for your healing treatment at the spa.
You close the door behind you and walk back towards the lift.
You press the button to call the lift and once again it arrives really quickly.
You seem to be so lucky today.
You step inside and press the button for the ground floor.
You look up at the panel that displays the numbers of the floors and watch as you gently descend each floor.
Seven.
When you reach the ground floor you're somehow already feeling even more relaxed than you were before.
You're so looking forward to this time just for you.
You step out of the lift and make your way down the beautiful corridor following the signs for the spa.
There's a large glass door in front of you.
You push it open and are welcomed by one of the staff members at the spa who gives you the warmest smile.
They know your name and they're expecting you.
They give you a large plush white towel,
Some slippers and the most comfortable white bathrobe to wear while you're here.
They show you towards the room where you'll be having your treatment today.
You're greeted by the therapist who will be with you today.
They are so kind and professional.
They have a warm competent aura and they're pleased to see you.
They leave you for a moment to change into that wonderful bathrobe.
As you slip on this robe it seems to ease your body and help soothe any discomfort that you may feel.
You feel enveloped in softness and comfort.
You lie down comfortably on your back on the treatment table.
The lighting is low and there is some very soothing music playing.
It seems like it could be the most soothing music you've ever heard.
And there's a beautiful almost divine scent in the room that just seems to make your whole body sigh with relaxation.
You notice a small wooden table in one corner of the room with some crystals on it.
There's a large piece of rose quartz,
Some amethyst and a couple of smaller crystals you don't recognize.
You can feel the healing energy from these crystals just from their presence in the room.
You're feeling so grateful for this beautiful space and this time.
There is a gentle knock at the door and your therapist comes back into the room.
You feel so safe,
Comfortable,
At ease and at peace in this moment.
You have a whole hour here and you just get the feeling that time has slowed down and you're really going to enjoy every moment that you spend in this magical place.
Your therapist begins by placing their hands just above the top of your head.
They're not touching you but you can already feel the warmth and the healing energy from their hands and your whole body melts into relaxation.
Every cell,
Every fiber of your body relaxes more and more as you feel any tension,
Any stress or worry just leaving your body and you're feeling more and more calm and peaceful.
You feel the healing energy run down your shoulders and relax your upper back,
Your lower back.
You might even notice some tingles in your body as you connect energetically to this experience with your mind.
Your therapist places one hand gently under the back of your head and lays the other hand softly over your forehead.
Your mind feels clear and calm as the energy from their healing hands removes any negativity making space for positive,
Supportive,
Loving energies.
They place their hands ever so lightly so that they're barely touching you over your eyes and through your closed eyes you feel the warmth of their hands soothing you,
Relaxing you and it feels wonderful.
They cup their hands gently over your ears now and a wave of peace moves through you as your ears bathe in this comforting,
Healing glow.
They hover both hands just above your throat and any energetic blockages are eliminated.
Anything that may have been hindering your ability to communicate is going,
Gone,
Removed so that your throat feels clear and open.
They move their hands down your body so that one hand is just above your collarbone and the other hovers over your heart space.
You imagine the softest green light moving down into your body and wrapping itself gently around your heart,
Removing any past pain,
Any fear,
Any hurt and bringing only loving,
Kind,
Soft energy so that your heart feels bright and expanded again.
They hover one hand over your solar plexus and the other over your stomach and you just know that tomorrow when you wake up you will feel more energized,
Content,
Confident and creative.
They hover over your root chakra at the base of your spine and as they do this you begin to feel even more safe,
Even more grounded,
Stable and just really connected to Mother Earth.
They rest their hands gently over your open palms without touching you and you feel a powerful,
Healing energy being transmitted to you energetically.
They place their hands over your knees and any tension,
Any traces of pain or discomfort just melt away.
They move down to your ankles and the top of your feet and the soles of your feet.
You're feeling so incredibly relaxed now,
So wonderfully relaxed and at ease that you could almost drift off to sleep.
From this space of deep relaxation you can allow yourself to drift off.
You can let yourself drift off to the most peaceful,
Restorative,
Healing sleep.
You're going to feel so peaceful,
Content,
Energized and so ready for a bright new day.
So just sleep,
Just sleep,
Just sleep.
