Imagine yourself standing in the lush green grass of the peaceful countryside. Rolling hills surround you, And the blue sky expands above you. The gentle breeze is cool, And the soft sounds of the stream in the distance, Harmonizes with the chirps of the birds. You see the farm around the bend, And make your way towards it. A large flock of sheep is scattered across the greenery, Like little fluffy white clouds moving slowly across the sky. They’re munching grass, Calm and content.

Transcript

Slow it all down as you settle into your bed.

Take a big deep breath in,

Filling your belly with fresh air,

And then exhale,

Letting it all out as you sink deeper into your bed.

Take another full breath in,

Collecting all the thoughts,

The tasks,

The worries,

And when you can't breathe in anymore,

Exhale and release all of it out.

Now ease into an easy rhythm of breathing,

Slowing yourself down and relaxing deeper.

Imagine yourself standing in the lush green grass of the peaceful countryside.

Rolling hills surround you,

And the blue sky expands above you.

The gentle breeze is cool,

And the soft sounds of the stream in the distance harmonizes with the chirps of the birds.

You see the farm around the bend and make your way towards it.

A large flock of sheep is scattered across the greenery,

Like little fluffy white clouds moving slowly across the sky.

They're munching grass,

Calm and content.

They acknowledge you as you approach,

Unafraid,

Knowing you are a friend.

As you stand among the sheep,

Take a deep breath in and out.

With each exhale,

Release any tension or heaviness you may have carried here.

Light and relax,

You begin counting the sheep as they slowly wander around their field.

Watch the sheep closely and sink deeper with every count,

Your body is deeply relaxed and your mind is slow and clear.

If you lose count of the sheep,

It's okay,

Just come right back into your body,

Feeling the soft grass under your feet,

And begin again.

Namaste,

Beautiful.
