Happiness & Contentment Guided Sleep Practice
Find the happiness and contentment that always reside within you. Despite what you might believe, just beyond your worries, thoughts and expectations, happiness and contentment are states of being that you can tune into in the present moment and are always accessible to you in the moment you decide to be happy.

.
Welcoming you to tonight's guided sleep meditation.
.
.
.
This meditation is designed to help you connect and feel a happiness and contentment within.
.
.
.
To bring greater peace,
Serenity and joy into your everyday waking state.
.
.
.
Where you are in harmony and synchronicity with the natural joy and deep peace that is always available to you in the present moment.
.
.
.
Please only listen to this recording when you can take some time to yourself and just relax.
.
.
.
Please do not listen to this recording whilst driving or operating machinery.
.
.
.
When you are ready,
Take a deep breath in.
.
.
.
.
And as you breathe out,
Close your eyes.
.
.
.
.
And begin to relax.
.
.
.
Allowing yourself to let go of the outside world.
.
.
.
To connect with your innate wisdom.
.
.
.
The part of you beyond your conscious awareness.
.
.
.
.
The stillness within.
.
.
.
And to know how good this feels.
.
.
.
.
As you learn to connect with the space beyond your thoughts.
.
.
.
Beyond your beliefs and expectations.
.
.
.
And as you listen to this recording.
.
.
.
.
Before drifting into sleep.
.
.
.
.
You are setting your intentions to welcome a new day.
.
.
.
.
When you awake.
.
.
.
With enthusiasm,
Openness,
Tranquility and loving kindness.
.
.
.
.
There is absolutely nothing that you need to do.
.
.
.
.
Just lie back and listen.
.
.
.
.
Allowing yourself to be transported to inner peace and sleep.
.
.
.
So that all the sounds you hear only help to relax you more deeply.
.
.
.
The sound of the music.
.
.
.
.
The sound of my voice.
.
.
.
.
The sounds that you hear where you are.
.
.
.
And noticing too the silence beneath the sounds.
.
.
.
.
The space between the words.
.
.
.
.
Feeling serene.
.
.
.
.
Calm.
.
.
.
.
And quiet.
.
.
.
And in your mind's eye now.
.
.
.
.
You see yourself opening a door.
.
.
.
The door opens easily and silently onto a large orange grove.
.
.
.
.
As you step through the door into the orange orchard.
.
.
.
.
You can feel the warmth of the setting sun on your skin.
.
.
.
.
Its soothing touch fills you with a deep sense of well-being and happiness.
.
.
.
You begin walking slowly and lazily through the orange grove.
.
.
.
.
You see that the trees are covered in blossom.
.
.
.
.
With the occasional orange that you can see growing in amongst the dark green leaves.
.
.
.
.
And the air is filled with the warm scent of oranges and blossom.
.
.
.
It is dusk time.
.
.
.
.
The sun is lowering on the horizon.
.
.
.
.
With each slow step through the orchard.
.
.
.
.
You are feeling so relaxed and peaceful.
.
.
.
.
You find a place to sit.
.
.
.
.
To lie back.
.
.
.
.
And watch as the setting sun begins to disappear beyond the horizon.
.
.
.
.
The whole scene before you is cast in a rosy golden light.
.
.
.
.
The sky is painted in the most vivid colours of pink.
.
.
.
.
Orange.
.
.
.
.
And yellow.
.
.
.
.
It is very gradually beginning to darken to violet.
.
.
.
.
The atmosphere of this landscape contains a feeling of magic.
.
.
.
.
Delight.
.
.
.
.
And wonder.
.
.
.
.
And as you feel.
.
.
.
.
See.
.
.
.
Experience the beauty of nature.
.
.
.
.
Its ability to just be.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
A gentle breeze blows softly through the orchard.
.
.
.
.
So that thousands of orange petals are blown all around you.
.
.
.
.
And in that moment.
.
.
.
.
You notice everything begin to slow down.
.
.
.
.
Like life being set in slow motion.
.
.
.
.
The petals are floating softly and slowly through the pink light of the setting sun.
.
.
.
.
Gently moving with a quietness and ease.
.
.
.
.
Floating so softly.
.
.
.
.
So slowly.
.
.
.
.
That if you put your hand out.
.
.
.
.
You are able to pick individual petals from the air.
.
.
.
.
Feeling so relaxed and sleepy now.
.
.
.
.
I would like you to bring your attention to your body.
.
.
.
.
And in a moment.
.
.
.
.
I will guide your attention gently and slowly through a body scan.
.
.
.
.
As your attention travels over your body.
.
.
.
You feel that part relax.
.
.
.
And as your body relaxes more deeply.
.
.
.
Your mind too feels quieter.
.
.
.
So peaceful.
.
.
.
Happy.
.
.
.
And content.
.
.
.
Staying now at the top of your head.
.
.
.
You bring your attention slowly down to your forehead.
.
.
.
.
To your eyes.
.
.
.
.
Allowing all those facial muscles to let go and relax.
.
.
.
Feeling soothed.
.
.
.
Calm.
.
.
.
Serene.
.
.
.
Your attention travels gently down your face.
.
.
.
Your cheeks.
.
.
.
Your nose.
.
.
.
Your ears.
.
.
.
Softly down to your jaw.
.
.
.
So that you part your teeth just a little.
.
.
.
Allowing the ease and tranquility to flow through your body.
.
.
.
Through your mind.
.
.
.
And your spirit.
.
.
.
Letting go.
.
.
.
Deeper.
.
.
.
And deeper down.
.
.
.
As you notice the peace and relaxation.
.
.
.
Travel slowly down the back of your neck.
.
.
.
And softly across your shoulders.
.
.
.
Your body feeling heavier.
.
.
.
Sinking more deeply down into your bed.
.
.
.
So relaxed and tranquil.
.
.
.
Moving gently and slowly down your arms.
.
.
.
To your hands.
.
.
.
To your fingertips.
.
.
.
Breathing deeply in.
.
.
.
And slowly out.
.
.
.
As you feel.
.
.
.
Experience the ease and relaxation flow across your chest and softly down to your tummy.
.
.
.
Continuing across your upper back.
.
.
.
And slowly down.
.
.
.
Down.
.
.
.
Down.
.
.
.
All the way down to your lower back.
.
.
.
Moving down your pelvis.
.
.
.
And your buttocks.
.
.
.
To your legs.
.
.
.
Your thighs.
.
.
.
Knees.
.
.
.
Your calves.
.
.
.
Your ankles.
.
.
.
To your feet.
.
.
.
All the way down to the tips of your toes.
.
.
.
Aware of how deeply relaxed and tranquil your body now feels.
.
.
.
Your mind quiet and serene.
.
.
.
More relaxed than you have ever known before.
.
.
.
And feeling so relaxed.
.
.
.
You can see.
.
.
.
Feel.
.
.
.
Imagine yourself in the orange grove.
.
.
.
Lying back and looking up towards the blue black velvet of the night sky.
.
.
.
There are thousands of twinkling stars.
.
.
.
Shimmering and glittering above.
.
.
.
The clear night sky filled with stars.
.
.
.
A scent of oranges and blossom in the air.
.
.
.
Lying back.
.
.
.
Looking up at the stars and the sparkles.
.
.
.
You become aware that those stars and sparkles are drifting down.
.
.
.
Down to where you are lying.
.
.
.
That the air about you is filled with thousands of sparkling glittering particles.
.
.
.
Tiny specks of sparkling magic.
.
.
.
Dancing.
.
.
.
Twinkling.
.
.
.
And glistening.
.
.
.
Flakes of sparkling happiness.
.
.
.
And each sparkle represents a part of you.
.
.
.
Your dreams and your feelings of deep happiness.
.
.
.
So inviting and welcoming.
.
.
.
You naturally allow the glittering sparkles and twinkles to fill your body.
.
.
.
To fill your mind.
.
.
.
And as the twinkling particles of happiness flow through your mind and body.
.
.
.
You are aware of a shimmering warmth.
.
.
.
You are feeling happy.
.
.
.
Content.
.
.
.
Positive.
.
.
.
Confident.
.
.
.
The sparkling natural relaxing energy in each twinkle of light.
.
.
.
Like heavy endorphins.
.
.
.
Flowing.
.
.
.
Glimmering with natural energy.
.
.
.
Spreading throughout your body and mind.
.
.
.
Enjoying now the feeling of happiness flowing through you.
.
.
.
A deep contentment and peace in just being you.
.
.
.
Each sparkle soothingly flows through your mind and body.
.
.
.
Your body feeling deeply relaxed.
.
.
.
Mind and body blissfully floating.
.
.
.
The glowing warmth of the sparkles.
.
.
.
.
Twinkling and dancing as they flow through your body.
.
.
.
Through your mind.

So that you are aware of letting go more deeply.
.
.
.
To easily relax the flow of sparkles.

You return to this place.
.
.

To increase the flow of endorphins.
.
.
.
You can just think again about the orange grove.
.
.
.
Imagine those dancing twinkling particles of light.

Energy endorphins.
.
.
.
And how they are attracted to you.

Very nice. My sleep app said I was into deep sleep at 10 mins. I choose sleep meditations w delta binaural beats because I feel better when I awaken. That the talk down was soothing is a definite plus. Bookmarked ❤️
