Hear the evening calling you,
Listen as it beckons,
It's time to let your body rest and tend to your weary mind.
You've done a lot of work today,
Both mental and physical,
Now it's time to relax a chance to unplug and recharge.
Use this time to slow everything down,
Your thoughts,
Your heartbeat,
Your cares.
There's nothing more important right now than finding the respite you need.
So often our days spool out of control,
Tossing dozens of problems our way,
The night is here to reverse all of that,
To give us some space to breathe.
Our breath is an effective place to begin,
For it affects everything else.
So with eyes closed,
Inhale gently with a purpose,
Let the moment grow and stretch.
When you're ready to let that breath go,
Slowly exhale and feel the release.
Notice how your muscles follow that lead,
Softening and settling in for the night.
You're nestled in the safest place,
One that belongs to you alone,
Full of familiar scents,
Comfort is your goal.
Take a moment to enjoy the calm you've created,
Revel in the weightless feel of your body and the serene openness of your mind.
Now that you've cleared out troubling thoughts,
Do your best to keep it that way.
Imagine an impenetrable boundary,
A wall to separate you from the day.
It's so important to your well-being that you regularly disengage.
Each day can be so full and chaotic,
Leaving little time to focus on you,
But if you can create a ritual,
A predictable enriching routine,
Your days will feel less frantic as well,
And you'll look forward to powering down.
Focus your attention on your quiet mind,
Enjoy the tranquility you find there,
Let the stillness lift you up,
Let it take you to a higher place.
In this place,
Anything is possible.
In this place,
All of your plans make sense.
In this place,
You become your very best as you work to plant the seeds of change.
Instead of thinking,
Feel your way through.
Determine whatever you wish for yourself,
Detach from whatever your brain might say,
And be mindful of your heart.
Like your soul,
Your heart won't fail you as long as you pay attention,
So tune in and listen to its wisdom.
These evening hours are the very best time to practice speaking your heart's language.
The messages appear in different ways,
Sharing feelings and words.
Breathe into the powerful silence within.
Feel the awe that comes with tuning in.
Exhale and realize how connected you are,
And remind yourself you're never alone.
In this warm,
Relaxing environment,
You have the chance to transform.
Once you learn to tune out the daily noise,
Your truth will make itself known.
Whatever you've been wondering about,
Whatever questions plague you in the day,
Can be redefined and answered here.
As long as you maintain the space,
Waking logic is usually ineffective.
Your inner self has a mind of its own,
But once you learn the rules of the road,
There are no limits to what you can see.
As you fall deeper into dreamland,
Let your imagination do what it will.
Let it show you the life you truly want.
Let it chart its own course.
Throughout the night,
These images can dance,
Filling your heart with hope.
Promise yourself that when you wake,
You'll give your inner instincts a chance.
Your gut is your guide out in the world.
It remembers what you can't,
And when you're in the habit of tuning in,
Your truth doesn't have a chance to hide.
When the deepest parts of you work together,
It's so much harder to veer off track.
That's why this time of twilight sleep means so much.
Breathe deeply,
And take it all in.
The feelings,
The messages,
The peace.
Your higher self is full of magic,
So come inside and seek out this magnificent part of you.
Namaste.
Beautiful.
