This is a recording for better sleep.

If at any time you need to be awake to respond to something important,

You will automatically return to an alert and unsuggestable state.

If at any point you feel like drifting off to sleep,

Just let yourself drift off and enjoy a full night of deep and restful sleep.

You can listen to my voice,

Or let your mind wander,

Or fall asleep,

Whichever seems more comfortable and relaxing to you.

Just begin by letting yourself relax and breathe deeply.

There is no need to worry about sleeping or not sleeping,

As just letting yourself relax can be restful and calming.

Begin by letting yourself relax and take ten deep breaths.

Open your eyes as you inhale,

Closing your eyes as you exhale,

Letting yourself go into a deeper state with every breath.

Open your eyes as you inhale.

Close your eyes as you exhale.

Open your eyes as you inhale.

Relaxing even more.

10,

Just leave your eyes closed.

Breathing deeply and slowly as you relax and go deeper.

Let your eyelids relax so much that it feels like they're melting into your cheeks.

You could nap on them even if you wanted to.

When your eyelids are that relaxed,

Let the rest of your face relax.

Let your jaw relax.

Let your scalp and the back of your head relax.

Let all the tension out of your head.

Let all the tension out of your mind.

Relax and trust that your mind knows what to do to let you relax and go even deeper into a gentle,

Restful sleep.

You can let yourself drift from a relaxed,

Hypnotic state into a deep and restful sleep at any time.

When you sleep,

You will remain asleep for hours,

Getting a full night of restorative and uninterrupted sleep.

Now,

Feel that sense of calm moving from your head down into your neck.

Gently move your head slightly to let all the muscles in your neck relax,

Still letting yourself breathe deeply and slowly.

Let that sense of relaxation flow down into your shoulders.

Move your shoulders slightly to let all the muscles in your shoulders relax.

Feel that sense of calm move down into your upper arms,

Your elbows,

Your wrists and your hands.

Let your arms relax completely,

Drifting even deeper.

Feel your chest and upper back relax as you continue breathing deeply and slowly.

Feel that sense of calm move down into your diaphragm,

Still taking deep,

Slow breaths.

Feel that sense of relaxation flowing down into your abdomen and lower back,

Letting all the muscles,

All the organs relax and feel more comfortable.

Let that calming energy move down into the hips and thighs,

The knees,

The shins and calves,

The ankles,

The feet from heel to toe.

Let all the tension leave your mind.

Let all the tension leave your body,

Flowing out through the soles of your feet as you drift even deeper.

Feel relaxing,

Healing energy flowing through your body from head to toe,

Flowing wherever it is needed as you go more deeply into peace and rest.

Deep sleep.

Each time you hear the words deep sleep for the purposes of hypnosis and with your permission,

You will go quickly,

Calmly and effortlessly into a state as deep as this or even deeper where your mind and body are fully relaxed and your mind is open to positive suggestions.

As you continue to go deeper,

Let's count down from 20 with positive suggestions for rest and confidence and let your subconscious mind decide whether to continue listening to my voice or to drift into a deep and restful sleep.

Starting at 20,

Feeling deeply relaxed and comfortable.

Deep sleep.

Each time you hear the words deep sleep,

For the purposes of hypnosis and through your permission,

You will go quickly,

Calmly and effortlessly into a state as deep as this,

Or even deeper,

Where your mind and body are fully relaxed and your mind is open to positive suggestions.

As you continue to go deeper,

You can listen to my voice,

Or you can let your mind wander,

Or you can let your mind and body drift and flow into a deep and restful sleep.

Each night you will find yourself sleeping longer and more fully.

Each night you will find it easier to let yourself relax and rest and drift more deeply and effortlessly into an uninterrupted sleep.

As you continue to relax and let yourself go more deeply,

You find yourself letting go of things that no longer serve you.

See yourself dropping those things away.

Let go of any fear,

Any pain,

Any guilt,

Any frustration,

Any anger,

Any impatience,

Any unworthiness,

Any stress.

Just let those things go.

Let them drop away.

Let them fade away until they disappear.

And you go even more deeply into a state of relaxation.

Give yourself patience and kindness and time,

Drifting deeper into a more restful state.

Let go of anything that might have kept you from sleeping fully through the night.

See yourself sleeping calmly and restfully the whole night through.

As you go deeper,

I want you to focus on these suggestions that I'm giving you.

Suggestions for self-control,

Feeling your mind and body working in harmony.

Let your mind and body work together for rest and rejuvenation.

Feel a growing sense of confidence and self-control,

A growing sense of relaxation,

Patience and control.

Know that you can sleep more deeply and fully through the night.

Feel greater control over your own sleep.

Sleep deeply and more fully.

Wake feeling more well-rested.

Let the body relax.

Let the stress disappear.

Now,

Every night you will sleep soundly and deeply.

You will sleep fully and restfully.

Each night you will vent out in harmless dreams any stresses of the past.

Those dreams will not frighten you.

You will just release them and let them move on.

Your physical body will remain relaxed.

Your mind will be calm.

And you will sleep deeply and soundly through the night.

You will wake in the morning feeling refreshed,

Clear-headed and comfortable with yourself.

For now though,

You can just let yourself relax further and drift into a deep,

Secure and restful sleep.

Sleep.

Sleep deeply.

Sleep restfully and completely through the entire night.

Anytime you need to return to sleep,

You can just let yourself breathe deeply.

Giving yourself gentle suggestions for relaxing and sleeping through the night.

And feeling confident and capable in the day to come.

And now,

Just let yourself drift off into a deep and restful,

Full night's sleep.

Sleep well.
