Take a moment to settle in,
Letting your body land exactly where it is.
You don't need to adjust anything.
You don't need to get it perfect,
Just letting yourself arrive.
Gently close your eyes,
Or soften your gaze,
And take a slow,
Easy breath in,
And a long breath out.
Again,
Breathing in,
And exhaling just a little slower this time.
Let your breath return to normal,
Nothing to control,
Nothing to manage,
And just notice your body lying here,
Supported.
Feel the weight of your body sinking down,
Just a little more with each exhale,
As if the bed is gently receiving you,
So you don't have to hold yourself up anymore.
Let the shoulders drop.
Let the jaw soften.
Let the tongue rest.
Let the eyes be heavy.
There is nothing you need to figure out tonight,
Nothing you need to solve.
Whatever is unfinished can wait.
If thoughts are still moving,
That's okay.
Let them drift through like distant sounds,
Not something you need to follow.
And gently bring your attention to your breath,
Noticing the inhale,
And the exhale.
Letting each exhale be a quiet invitation to soften,
To release,
To sink a little further.
Imagine the body getting heavier and softer,
With every breath out,
As if you're slowly melting into the surface beneath you.
And if your mind wanders,
Just gently come back to this feeling of softness.
You don't have to make sleep happen.
Your body already knows how.
All you're doing is getting out of the way.
If sleep comes,
Let it take you.
If you're still awake,
Just keep resting here.
Nothing is wasted.
Feel the rhythm of your breath,
Slow,
Steady,
Safe.
Let the night hold you.
Let the quiet support you.
Let yourself drift.
Coming back again to the breath,
And the gentle weight of your body,
Softening with every exhale.
Feel the rhythm of your breath,
Slow,
Steady,
Safe.
Let the night hold you.
Let the quiet support you.
Let yourself drift.
Coming back again to the breath,
And the gentle weight of your body,
Softening with every exhale.
Feel the rhythm of your breath,
Slow,
Steady,
Safe.
Let the night hold you.
Let the quiet support you.
Let yourself drift.
Coming back again to the breath,
And the gentle weight of your body,
Softening with every exhale.
Feel the rhythm of your breath,
Slow,
Steady,
Safe.
Let the night hold you.
Let the quiet support you.
Let yourself drift.
Coming back again to the breath,
And the gentle weight of your body,
Softening with every exhale.
Feel the rhythm of your breath,
Slow,
Steady,
Safe.
Let the night hold you.
Let the quiet support you.
Let yourself drift.
Coming back again to the breath,
And the gentle weight of your body,
Softening with every exhale.
Feel the rhythm of your breath,
Slow,
Steady,
Safe.
Let the night hold you.
Let the quiet support you.
Let yourself drift.
Coming back again to the breath,
And the gentle weight of your body,
Softening with every exhale.
