Settle into your bed,
My dear,
And let yourself sink into the soft embrace of your blankets.
Take a moment to find comfort,
Moving your body gently to release any tension,
Any pain,
Or any lingering energy from the day.
Take a deep,
Nourishing breath in,
Filling your lungs completely with fresh,
Calming air.
And as you slowly exhale,
Let go of the day and allow your body to find deeper comfort.
Sometimes,
Even in the quiet of the night,
Thoughts can persist,
Tapping on your mind,
Seeking attention.
They remind you of unfinished tasks,
Plans to be made,
Anxieties to sort out,
And pieces of life to organize.
But tonight,
You don't have to listen to them,
You don't have to let them take over.
With each exhale,
Imagine breathing all those thoughts out,
Watching them leaving your body with every breath.
Breathe deeply,
And imagine each thought turning into a soft,
Gray mass,
Floating away from you with each out-breath.
Allow your body to melt deeper into the comfort of sleep.
Feel the soothing warmth at the crown of your head,
Relaxing your forehead,
Your eyes,
Your cheeks,
Your lips,
And your neck.
Breathe out those thoughts as the warmth trickles down into your shoulders,
Your chest,
Down the length of your arms,
And into your hands.
Feel yourself soften and melt.
Slow down and breathe as the gentle,
Warm energy flows down,
Soothing your stomach,
Your hips,
Your thighs,
All the way down your legs and into your feet.
Let the warmth cover you,
Softening your body and dissolving any remaining thoughts.
You are not your thoughts.
You are here,
In this moment,
One with the night,
One with the universe,
And the endless energy of love that connects us all.
Your thoughts are far away,
Traveling deep into the galaxies,
Playing out their dramas without you,
Leaving you free from their grasp,
Ready to embrace the restorative rest you deserve.
Namaste,
Beautiful.
Namaste.
