Hi,
This is Kim Carmen Walsh.
.
.
.
Welcome you to this guided sleep meditation designed to help you relax and let go of any tension as you drift into sleep.
.
.
.
.
During this guided sleep meditation,
I will guide you through a soothing body scan.
.
.
.
.
Using especially your senses of sight,
Of touch and listening.
.
.
.
.
As you practice tuning into these senses before going to sleep.
.
.
.
.
You will perceive that the same exercise can be done in your everyday waking state.
.
.
.
.
Strengthening your skill and ability to give yourself space.
.
.
.
.
So that you find yourself stepping back and curiously observing your thoughts and your emotions.
.
.
.
.
There is absolutely nothing that you need to do.
.
.
.
.
Just lie back and listen.
.
.
.
.
So making yourself comfortable in your bed.
.
.
.
.
Take a deep breath in.
.
.
.
.
And as you slowly breathe out.
.
.
.
.
Close your eyes.
.
.
.
.
And begin to relax.
.
.
.
.
Giving yourself this time.
.
.
.
.
This space.
.
.
.
.
Before drifting into sleep.
.
.
.
.
To let go of your thoughts.
.
.
.
.
To release any tension that you might be holding in your mind and in your body.
.
.
.
.
Breathe beyond your thoughts.
.
.
.
.
Beyond your criticisms and judgements.
.
.
.
.
So that you can feel,
Perceive,
Experience the deep well of peace and tranquillity within you.
.
.
.
.
Feeling that this quiet space inside is always available to you.
.
.
.
.
As you drift into sleep and into your everyday waking state.
.
.
.
.
Just by tuning into your senses.
.
.
.
.
Noticing your senses of sight.
.
.
.
.
Of touch.
.
.
.
.
Listening.
.
.
.
.
Taste and smell.
.
.
.
.
You bring yourself to the present moment.
.
.
.
.
So that you perceive and know directly the experience of turning down the volume on your thoughts.
.
.
.
.
To connect with the deeper intuitive wisdom of your body.
.
.
.
.
Thoughts of the past.
.
.
.
.
And expectations for the future.
.
.
.
.
Can melt into the background of your awareness.
.
.
.
.
Bringing your attention now to the resonating sound of the giant Tibetan singing ball.
.
.
.
.
The sound of my voice.
.
.
.
.
Any sounds in your room.
.
.
.
.
Or outside.
.
.
.
.
So that each and every sound you hear helps to relax and soothe you.
.
.
.
.
So that you feel,
Perceive sensations of ease and comfort.
.
.
.
.
Flowing through your body.
.
.
.
.
Flowing through your mind.
.
.
.
.
Mind and body are one.
.
.
.
.
As your body relaxes.
.
.
.
.
Your mind will naturally follow.
.
.
.
.
Noticing too how good it feels to just let go.
.
.
.
.
To tune into your sense of sound.
.
.
.
.
Listen to the resonance of the singing ball.
.
.
.
.
So that you can feel the sound.
.
.
.
.
Feel the vibrations of the ball.
.
.
.
Flow through your mind.
.
.
.
.
Flow through your body.
.
.
.
.
And as the sensation of peace and contentment travel through you.
.
.
.
.
I'd like you also to choose a colour.
.
.
.
.
A colour that represents happiness and relaxation to you.
.
.
.
.
It may be a soothing green.
.
.
.
.
Or a light blue.
.
.
.
.
Or perhaps a warm golden colour.
.
.
.
.
Choosing whichever colour to you most naturally represents relaxation.
.
.
.
.
And this colour becomes a light that is glowing warmly and soothingly just above your head.
.
.
.
.
And as I guide your attention down your body.
.
.
.
.
From the top of your head.
.
.
.
.
To the tips of your toes.
.
.
.
.
This calming colour.
.
.
.
.
This soothing and healing light will also travel over your body.
.
.
.
.
You can see in your mind's eye.
.
.
.
.
This light.
.
.
.
.
This warmth.
.
.
.
.
This healing energy.
.
.
.
.
Relaxes and eases your body.
.
.
.
.
So that every muscle.
.
.
.
.
Every fibre.
.
.
.
.
Let's go to peace and contentment.
.
.
.
.
And the sound too of the Tibetan ball continues to relax you.
.
.
.
.
It's deep resonance flowing through your body.
.
.
.
.
Flowing through your mind.
.
.
.
.
Starting now.
.
.
.
.
Bring your attention to the top of your head.
.
.
.
.
And you can see.
.
.
.
.
Feel.
.
.
.
.
Experience the relaxing light.
.
.
.
.
Its soothing warmth.
.
.
.
.
Feel down from the top of your head.
.
.
.
.
To your forehead.
.
.
.
.
Letting go of all those small facial muscles.
.
.
.
.
As the healing light travels over.
.
.
.
.
Softly.
.
.
.
.
Over your eyes.
.
.
.
.
And slowly down your face.
.
.
.
.
Down your cheeks.
.
.
.
.
To your jaw.
.
.
.
.
Parting your teeth just a little.
.
.
.
You see.
.
.
.
.
Feel.
.
.
.
.
Perceive a deeper sense of happiness and relaxation.
.
.
.
.
Sinking more deeply down into your bed.
.
.
.
.
Sinking deeper.
.
.
.
.
And deeper down.
.
.
.
.
As this relaxing light.
.
.
.
.
Its soothing warmth and tranquillity.
.
.
.
.
Now travel down the back of your neck.
.
.
.
.
And slowly across your shoulders.
.
.
.
.
The sound of my voice.
.
.
.
.
The sound of the singing bowl helping you to relax.
.
.
.
.
To let go.
.
.
.
.
Continuing down your arms.
.
.
.
.
To your hands.
.
.
.
.
To your fingertips.
.
.
.
.
The gentle glowing warmth of the light.
.
.
.
.
Continues to travel over your body.
.
.
.
.
You see.
.
.
.
.
Feel.
.
.
.
.
Experience this relaxation now.
.
.
.
.
Flowing over your chest.
.
.
.
.
And softly down to your tummy.
.
.
.
.
Feeling the quiet space within you.
.
.
.
.
Resonating with the sound of the Tibetan singing bowl.
.
.
.
.
As your attention.
.
.
.
.
Your awareness.
.
.
.
.
Continue to help you relax.
.
.
.
.
Feeling soothed.
.
.
.
.
And calmed.
.
.
.
Drifting easily and naturally into sleep.
.
.
.
.
As you feel and see this light.
.
.
.
.
Its softness.
.
.
.
.
Its healing sensation.
.
.
.
.
Now travels across your upper back.
.
.
.
.
And slowly down.
.
.
.
.
Down.
.
.
.
.
Down.
.
.
.
.
All the way down to your lower back.
.
.
.
.
So that you sleep throughout the night.
.
.
.
.
And awake in the morning.
.
.
.
.
Feeling rejuvenated.
.
.
.
.
Confident.
.
.
.
.
Content.
.
.
.
.
Its very quiet.
.
.
.
.
Peaceful.
.
.
.
.
And still.
.
.
.
.
Sinking deeply down into your bed.
.
.
.
.
As your attention continues to travel down your body.
.
.
.
.
The relaxing warmth of the light.
.
.
.
.
Bringing you deeper and deeper down to deeper levels of ease and tranquility than you have ever known before.
.
.
.
.
Breathing down your pelvis.
.
.
.
.
Down your hips.
.
.
.
.
And your buttocks.
.
.
.
.
To your legs.
.
.
.
.
Sensations of ease.
.
.
.
.
And quiet stillness of your mind.
.
.
.
.
And ease of body.
.
.
.
.
Travelling down your legs to your thighs.
.
.
.
.
To your knees.
.
.
.
.
Your calves.
.
.
.
.
To your ankles.
.
.
.
.
Your feet.
.
.
.
.
All the way down to the tips of your toes.
.
.
.
.
Drifting into sleep.
.
.
.
.
Naturally and deeply.
.
.
.
.
And the sense of well-being.
.
.
.
.
Of ease in your skin.
.
.
.
.
Of quietness in your mind.
.
.
.
.
Continues to grow day by day.
.
.
.
.
Night by night.
.
.
.
.
Connecting with this inner space of wisdom and tranquility.
.
.
.
.
The power of your innate intelligence.
.
.
.
