Close your eyes gently,
Feeling the delicate flutter of your lashes as they rest.
Breathe in deeply,
Drawing in the sweet essence of peace.
As you exhale,
Release anything heavy that weighs on you,
And any thoughts that might be lingering.
Let them all go.
Let's begin by bringing your awareness to the very top of your head.
Imagine a warm,
Golden light gently caressing your scalp.
This gentle light is a gift,
A gentle balm of serenity.
Feel it spread,
Soothing your forehead,
Your temples,
Melting away any tension.
Let your thoughts dissolve like the evening mist under the setting sun.
Watch as this golden light flows down,
Caressing your eyes,
Your cheeks,
Your jaw,
Your chin.
With each breath,
Feel your face softening,
Your mouth parts slightly,
Your jaw unclenches,
Your tongue releases from the roof of your mouth,
Your cheeks relax.
Breathe.
Move your attention to your neck and shoulders.
Let the golden light cascade down like a gentle waterfall,
Washing away all tightness,
All knots.
Feel your shoulders drop,
Your neck lengthen,
And surrender deeper to the comfort of relaxation.
Breathe deeply,
And let the warmth of the golden light spread to your arms,
Down through your elbows,
Your wrists,
And into each fingertip.
Your arms are heavy,
Sinking into the mattress.
The weight of the world is slipping away,
And your body tingles with release as you let go.
Draw your focus now to your chest and your heart,
This sacred space that holds so much love,
So much feeling.
Allow the golden light to fill your heart with calm and peace.
With each beat,
With each breath,
Feel the expansion of tranquility within you.
Let the light flow down into your belly,
Into your hips.
Release any tightness,
Any discomfort.
Imagine your belly softening,
Your hips sinking deeper into the bed.
Let go of all control.
All need to hold on.
Just let go.
Bring your awareness to your legs,
Feeling the golden light moving through your thighs.
These strong pillars that carry you through life,
Let them relax completely,
And surrender to the night.
Feel your legs grow heavy,
Deeper and deeper into comfort.
Let the light reach your feet,
Flowing into your heel,
Your arches,
Your toes.
Every part of your body is now wrapped in warmth and relaxation.
Feel the tingling sensation as any last pieces of tension are released.
You are a vessel of pure peace,
Floating gently in a sea of tranquility.
Feel the gentle rhythm of your breath,
The rise and fall of your chest,
Like waves lapping upon the shore.
As you drift deeper into this space,
Know that you are supported and loved by the universe,
By the earth beneath you,
By the very essence of life.
Surrender to sleep.
Namaste.
Beautiful.
