Welcome to this simple energetic treatment practice that you can do for yourself while you drift off to sleep.
You can do it to prepare for sleep,
But if you fall asleep during the treatment,
That's completely fine.
Start by getting comfortable.
Pidget around,
Adjust,
And make sure you're in the right position for you for your rest.
You may wish to use your hands for this treatment or part of it,
But at any time you can also simply use your imagination.
Begin by acknowledging your body in space.
Remember the earth beneath you,
The land that you are on,
And your relationship with this land.
It might feel right to take a few deep breaths.
You could also simply notice what your breath is doing on its own,
Naturally.
Now imagine that you are surrounded by a circle of protection.
You could imagine a circle of stones or salt,
Or even a bright light in a color you love.
Clarify that only loving,
Healing energies are invited into this circle in alignment with the highest good of all,
And that anything that is not in alignment with those intentions stays outside of the circle.
And if there are any other intentions that feel right for you to add,
Feel free to do that as long as it is for the highest good of all.
Now let's invite the energy that you need a little more specifically.
You may already have a spiritual practice that you work with,
And if that's the case,
Go ahead and call in in the way that you're most comfortable.
Otherwise,
Consider what kind of energy you need right now.
This could be universal energy,
The energy of a god or goddess,
The energy of spirit,
Healing,
Love,
Or any other name you give to it.
Ask the energy to flow for your highest good.
Gather this energy into your hands,
Which you can use literally,
Or simply in your imagination.
And you can also switch any time you could use your hands for the first few positions,
And then relax them and use your imaginary hands later on.
You're also welcome to listen to your intuition about how long you want to stay in each position.
I'll provide suggestions,
But if you have a different pace or order you'd like to work with,
Trust your intuition first.
Allow this loving,
Healing energy to flow from above and below,
And gather gently in your hands.
Place your palms over your eyes.
You could be touching your eyes with your palms resting on your skin or hovering a few inches above.
Whatever's more comfortable for you.
Feel the warmth of the energy in your hands moving into your eyes,
Your forehead,
Your front brain.
Soothing any tension in this area.
Gently rebalancing whatever's present for you here.
Imagine that the energy you're working with is simply witnessing what's happening behind your eyes,
And simply correcting what's out of balance.
All you need to do is be here.
And now place one hand at the base of your skull where your neck and your head meet,
And allow the other to rest gently over your forehead.
Again,
Simply breathe,
Allowing the energy to witness here,
Correcting any imbalances.
You do not need to know anything cognitively.
Simply allow the energy in.
Allow it to do its work.
Now place your hands on your shoulders.
You could cross your arms like a gentle hug,
Or imagine your hands resting on your shoulders from behind.
As if your higher self or spirit guide's hands were doing this work for you.
Feel your shoulders relaxing under the warmth of these healing,
Loving hands.
Feel that love running down through your arms and hands.
And now your hands can rest over your heart,
Or imagine one hand on the front of your heart,
One hand on the back.
Allow this loving energy to flow into your heart,
Holding everything that lives there.
Allow this energy to witness whatever you've been feeling in your heart.
Keep breathing.
Now move your hands to your stomach area,
The low ribs,
Your liver on the right side,
Your spleen on the left,
Just above your belly button around the diaphragm.
Feel that energy flowing through this whole area,
Soothing and relaxing anything held in these parts of your body.
And you can keep your hands here,
Or imagine the hands placed on the mid-back around your kidneys and adrenal glands,
Just underneath your shoulder blades.
There's a tender spot there you may be able to feel.
Just feeling the warmth of your real or imaginary hands.
And when you're ready,
To the lower belly area,
Below the belly button.
Your intestines are mostly here.
Your psoas muscles,
Ovaries,
If you have ovaries,
Your womb a little below that.
Allow the energy to flow through this area.
Receiving the warmth.
And when you're ready,
You can place your hands on your lower back or leave them where they are,
Or again,
Imaginary hands.
Around your sacrum,
This sensitive lower back area.
Breathing with this energy,
Letting it flow through.
Now to the hips and pelvis.
Hands could rest on either side of the hips,
Or imagine them wherever feels most right for you.
Allow this soothing,
Loving energy to move through the structures of the hips.
And then to the pelvis.
And now you can place your hands on the tops of your thighs.
Allowing this energy to flow down your legs.
Allowing this energy to flow down your shoulders.
Allowing this energy to flow down your arms.
Allowing this energy to flow down your arms.
Allowing this energy to flow down your arms.
Allowing this energy to flow down your arms.
Allowing this energy to flow down your arms.
Allowing this energy to flow down your legs.
Releasing any tension,
Grounding any excess energy.
Allowing it to flow down into and through your feet toward the earth beneath you.
Anything you want to let go of,
Anything that's not useful to you,
Or in alignment with your highest good.
Simply releasing into the earth below you,
To be composted,
Transformed into something else.
Again,
You don't need to know what this is exactly,
Just trusting this energy to do its work.
Now there may be specific places in your body that need a little extra attention right now.
Areas that feel extra tight or tender.
Places where there isn't energy.
Places where there is an injury or an experience of illness.
Perhaps it's your heart that needs a little boost.
If you're not sure,
We can place our hands on our hearts,
Or imagine placing our hands there.
And simply allowing that loving,
Healing energy to simply flow through that place for as long as it needs to.
And you could stay right here.
Maybe there's yet another place that needs a little extra attention.
Continuing to allow the energy to flow through you,
However you need to.
Witnessing you just as you are.
If you're moving to different places,
Take as long as you need to do that.
When this practice feels complete for you,
Relax your hands if you haven't already.
Allow your entire body to rest into the support beneath you.
Allow the energy to continue to flow through you and down into the earth beneath you.
Remember,
Yourself is connected to the energy of everything.
Thank this energy for being with you.
Thank the earth and the land beneath you.
Thank any other guides,
Spirits or energies that you'd like to honour and acknowledge.
Your practice is complete.
Rest in this place.
Letting your body relax into the knowledge that you are connected and supported energetically.
Rest well and have a sweet sleep.
You may want to pay attention to your dreams when you wake up in the morning.
Goodnight.
