I am going to guide you down into a restful and rejuvenating deep sleep.
It is common that a busy mind tries to keep you from making the leap from awake to asleep.
So,
I am going to give you one last chance to think about these things.
One last chance to go through any worries or concerns that you have that are keeping you from getting a restful night's sleep.
Go ahead and think as hard as you can about anything that is stuck in your mind.
But when you do this,
You only give each thought one chance to think about it.
Then you will let it go.
As each thought arises that keeps you from feeling relaxed,
Say to that thought,
Okay,
I've acknowledged you,
So now you must leave.
And continue.
Think your thoughts and only give them one chance to present themselves.
And then say,
Now it is time for you to go.
As you watch these thoughts coming,
Notice how less repetitive they get.
You are emptying these thoughts out by actively letting each of them go.
If something arises that you already just thought about,
Demand that you are letting it go once and for all,
Because you deserve restful sleep.
You only have a few moments longer to think of anything that is left than letting it go completely.
Restful sleep is natural for you,
And it is natural for everyone.
However,
Up until now,
You've allowed your thoughts to have control over you,
Keeping you from getting the slumber you deserve.
But now you are done with this habit,
Because restful sleep is natural for you.
And overthinking is unnecessary and unnatural.
You are doing exactly what you've been needing to do for so very long.
Now,
Only one last chance to see any thoughts coming and say to them,
Leave my mind so that I can have the natural restful sleep that I deserve.
And as these daily concerns fade and become less aggressive in your mind,
You find your body feels lighter.
You also find that your mind,
Too,
Feels lighter.
A gentle,
Floaty sensation sweeps over you,
And this is the most relaxed you've felt in a very long time.
You notice the slight sound of your gentle breath,
And it reminds you of a calm breeze,
Or a serene ocean,
Or perhaps a clear stream trickling by.
Your breath is very similar to these scenes in nature,
Because your breath is the most natural thing in this world.
Your breath slows a little more,
Which means you are very relaxed and ready to doze off into a beautiful sleep.
It's been so long since you've been able to fall asleep so easily that your body welcomes this sensation.
Your mind has been so kind in letting go of any repetitive thoughts,
Because you acknowledged them,
And then firmly ordered for them to leave.
Your mind listens very well to your instruction.
Allow your mind to drift and wander to the thought of a soft and fluffy pillow.
You may be lucky enough to be laying on one right now.
Just imagine this pillow and feel its softness supporting you,
Feeling how it was created just for you to rest your head upon.
The truth is,
It was designed by someone who wished you a happy night's sleep every night.
Give thanks to the creator of this soft,
Comfy pillow.
It is a very important tool in a restful sleep.
The sound of my voice becomes distant now,
And the sensations of sleep are drawing very close now.
The frequency of sleeping sweeps over your mind and is a very pleasant feeling.
These gentle sensations come very naturally for you,
Deeply and soundly.
You can almost sense the feeling of being a tiny baby when sleeping came often and easily.
When you were a baby,
Your breath filled your belly and soothed you.
You were wrapped in various soft blankets by those who cared for you.
People cared for you when you were a baby and were delighted to see you restfully sleeping.
They knew how important it was to rejuvenate ourselves with sleep.
They smiled as they watched your closed eyes and sweet face.
You slept easily and nicely then when you were a little baby.
Just as you do now,
Upon your soft pillow.
You sleep deeply and soundly.
You can barely notice your breath now because it is slow to only what is needed for a deep and restful sleep.
This is completely natural and it feels wonderful.
I am delighted to see you sleeping so well.
You deserve this.
You sleep deeply and soundly.
You deserve a restful sleep.
You deserve a natural slumber.
You deserve to let go of unnecessary thoughts.
You deserve to sleep in a way that you feel completely rejuvenated when you rise.
Everyone you know also deserves to see you well rested.
They are overjoyed to hear this news when you tell them that you are getting the natural sleep that you need every single night.
You sleep deeply and soundly.
Your dreams are constructive and offer a space for learning.
Your dreams contribute to a happy wakeful life.
Your dreams compliment your good qualities and offer feelings of completion.
Let the dreamy feeling flow and float now,
Taking you all different kinds of wonderful places,
Having important experiences.
You sleep deeply and soundly.
It is effortless for you to get to sleep.
Simply practice this meditation technique every single night for a few weeks so that you fully retain this wonderful habit.
Sleep comes easily for you.
Sleeping soundly is natural for you.
Those you love are delighted that you sleep so deeply,
Getting the rest you need.
It is your human right to always get a good night's sleep.
And it is your human right to be completely rejuvenated when you rise.
You deserve this.
And you always have.
Just let my voice completely fade away.
Enjoy this rest you naturally experience.
