Allow your eyes to comfortably close.
And breathe out down the full length of your body.
Allowing your body to soften and release what it's holding and no longer needs to carry.
Let it flow out and away.
In your own time.
Become aware of the surface directly beneath you.
And allow your weight to soften into its support.
Letting the weight of your head soften into the support beneath it too.
As you do so.
Breathe out down the full length of your body once again.
Releasing yet more of what it's been carrying.
Let it all flow out of you and away.
And say the words.
I let go of the day.
I let go of everything I no longer need to carry.
I let go of everything that isn't mine to carry.
In your own time.
Come down from your mind.
Into the weight and volume of your body.
And the movements your body makes as you breathe.
And become aware of the sensation of air entering and leaving your nostrils.
Notice the air as cool as it enters.
Warm as it lives.
Allow your breath to begin to slow down and lengthen in its own time.
As you do so.
Allow your mind to soften and sit back to rest in your head.
Let your eyes soften and sit back to rest too.
Letting your eyes know they don't have to work hard right now.
Give your eyes permission to rest.
To rest in deep.
As you breathe out,
Allow your eyes to release all they've been holding.
Let it flow out of your eyes and away.
In your own time.
As you breathe out,
Allow your mind to soften some more.
And release everything it's been holding.
Let it all flow out of your mind and away.
Let your mind know that it doesn't have to work hard right now.
Give your mind permission to rest.
Who rest in deep sleep.
Deep healing sleep.
Each out breath releasing a little more.
Everything flowing out and away.
Taking your eyes and mind even closer to sweet,
Healing sleep.
As your eyes and your mind rest on the shores of sleep.
Your breath ebbing and flowing.
Gently sense down into your shoulders,
Neck,
And up above.
Breathe into here.
Allowing your shoulders,
Neck,
And upper back to soften and release everything they've been holding.
As you breathe out.
Let it all flow out of you and away.
Each out-breath releasing another layer.
Allow the weight of your shoulders,
Neck and upper back to sink into the support beneath them.
Let them take their rest.
And gently breathe into your arms.
Allowing your arms and hands to soften and release everything they've been carrying.
As you breathe out.
Let it all flow out,
Down your arms.
Out of your hands and away.
Letting the weight of your arms and hands sink into the support beneath them.
Let them take their rest.
In your own time.
Gently breathe into your mid-breath.
Allowing your mid-back to soften and release everything it's been carrying as you breathe out.
Let it flow out and away.
Letting the weight of your mid-back sink into the support beneath it.
Moving down to your lower back and your buttocks.
Gently breathe into here.
Allowing your lower back and your buttocks to soften and release everything they've been carrying as you breathe out.
Let it all flow out and away.
Letting the weight of your lower back and buttocks sink into the support beneath them.
And gently breathe into your legs and feet.
Allowing them to soften and release everything they've been carrying as you breathe out.
Let it all flow down your legs.
Out with your feet.
And away.
Letting the weight of your legs and feet sink into the support beneath them.
Let them take their rest.
Let every part of your body take its rest.
And silently repeat the words.
I allow myself to sleep.
I allow myself to rest deeply.
I can sleep deeply now.
Sleep well.
Sleep well.

You
