Welcome.

You're listening to a guided meditation and sleep hypnosis to help you drift towards a magnificent night of sweet dreams and inspired rest.

And as you are listening,

You may think of my voice as the voice of a dear friend and as your healing guide who will help you open up the most creative,

Intuitive,

And loving parts of yourself.

And as you tune in to right now,

Please find a safe and quiet place where you are free to unwind,

De-stress,

And prepare for this mystical journey of the mind.

Letting your body relax,

Feeling heavy as you sing into the bed that supports you below,

Knowing that anything floating through your mind can wait for tomorrow.

As you are now free to set yourself for the night,

Free to let go of all that cannot be solved right now,

Free to indulge and even spoil yourself by only focusing on you and your desires.

Because in order to be the best that you can be for others,

You must take this time to heal and nurture and restore yourself.

You deserve this.

At the very least,

Each and every night,

You deserve to be untethered to the material world as you dive into the living energy within.

For a moment,

Just focusing on your heart center,

Feeling it opening as if two French doors opening out on two a breezy summer night.

So too,

You are opening this space.

Welcoming the loving feelings that come from being open hearted,

From being open to the restorative healing powers of rest.

Before we take this mental vacation,

We are going to take a few deep breaths together.

This is the easiest and perhaps most important exercise you may use to reclaim your power over your feelings and your mind.

Emptying out all your air to begin and inhale,

Letting the healing clean night air fill all the spaces and dark crevices of your body as it expands like a balloon.

Exhaling now as you release all your tensions from the day,

Pushing out the air from the deepest spaces along your lower abdomen,

Diaphragm,

Chest,

And collar bones.

And now inhaling gratitude and peace for one,

Two,

Three,

And exhaling anxiety for three,

Two,

One.

Exhaling love and light for one,

Two,

Three,

And exhaling tension and fear for three,

Two,

One.

Exhaling peace and stillness for one,

Two,

Three,

And exhaling worry for three,

Two,

One.

And one last time,

Inhaling the word let for one,

Two,

Three,

And exhaling the word go for three,

Two,

One.

Letting go,

Perfect.

You may return to a shallow and easy breathing,

The breathing of a person in utter stillness.

And with your eyes feeling heavy,

You may envision yourself in your bed,

Feeling luxurious and content.

You envision yourself walking along the familiar floor of your home,

One step at a time,

Continuing the floor beneath you,

Guiding yourself to the entryway to your home.

And as you are walking,

You feel almost as though you are floating,

As though this lightness of being comes to you as a premonition that things are about to be different.

A hint of magic is in the air tonight.

You go to the door of your home,

Your entryway to the world,

And place your hand on the doorknob,

Knowing that upon opening the door,

You will be transported to somewhere else.

And so you grasp the knob and turn it,

Opening the door as a warm golden light floods into your home and cascades over your body like the tepid waters of a bath,

Gently easing you as you step out into this light and suddenly find yourself in a new place.

Your bare feet are now walking upon the black lava rock shore of a sea cove,

And you feel the rough textured grip that meets your soft feet.

And you are wearing delicate attire that billows softly around you from the gentle sea breeze that comes off the turquoise waves that crest below you.

This soft wind carries a fragrance of sweet floral smells that are preceded by the salty humid air that follows.

You taste the slightest hint of salt on your lips as you continue to walk around the perimeter of this cove.

The sun is setting over the waters that darken further out along the horizon.

You feel a stillness closing your eyes and taking in the rhythmic sounds of the lapping waves,

Breathing in and breathing out in a moment of bliss.

And towards the center of a cove,

A hammock is strung between two palm trees.

And this hammock is of your own design and favorite colors,

Beckoning to you to just lie down and relax.

And so you do,

Exchanging the firm lava rocks below you for the contouring hug of the hammock.

Your head and neck release as you rock in the gentle breeze back and forth and back and forth.

And resting on a stone table near the hammock is a tropical beverage of your preference.

You take a sip,

Feeling the cool sweetness coat your palate and invigorate you as you continue to sway in the gentle sea breeze.

And next to this beverage rests a conch shell.

It is pristine and reflecting the setting light of the sun,

Glittering like diamonds.

A note next to it is written in beautiful scroll and reeds.

When you are ready to begin,

You will be ready to receive.

Intuitively you take the conch shell,

Feeling its pointy edges and smoothness,

So solid and real in your hand.

Inhaling and exhaling.

And taking in the beauty of the setting sun and the sky above.

Now inflamed with vibrant magenta and amber streaks as the colors paint the turquoise seas in a rainbow of beauty.

You take the shell to your ear and close your eyes,

Feeling the cool smoothness against your ear and cheek as you continue to rock back and forth and back and forth.

The hypnotic swirling sounds emanating from the conch are taking you into a soft sleep.

In between whirls,

Feeling the last bit of sunshine as the sun sets for the night and you are going deeper within to a vivid and imaginative room within you.

Like a genie's bottle,

Like the interior of the conch,

You are between the world around you and the sacred coven within.

This place within is reserved just for you and you relish the special part of yourself that is untouchable by anyone but you.

This central place where you may find respite and reconnect with the parts of yourself that are sounding out for more.

Sending the vibrations into the world to attract all that you desire and all that you need.

The resources are endless as you are tuning into this healthy flow of energy.

Still rocking in the hammock,

The sounds of the conch have awakened you and placed you in a different setting.

It is now nightfall and the stars are gleaming overhead like an endless blanket of glitter against a deep marine blue sky.

The moon is full and high.

The strawberry moon of summer that for centuries before you has indicated a new time for harvest.

And with a special conch still in your hand,

Feeling its alidity,

You begin walking towards the shoreline knowing intuitively that the hypnotic sounds of the turquoise waves and the white noise of the special conch have opened up new possibilities for you.

Sitting atop a black lava rock,

You allow just your toes to meet the warm water of the sea and feel a sudden yet soft jolt of electric energy in the tips of your toes.

Getting the deeper you go into this water,

The more you will be transformed and you feel brave and trusting and unencumbered to the reality you once knew.

You dip your feet entirely,

Your legs as well,

And suddenly your legs come together as a fin forms.

The water around you is illuminated by phosphorescence,

The waves swirling in a circle around your new mermaid tail.

And this tail has an iridescent sheen and fins that are speckled in your favorite hues.

Looking up at the moon,

Feeling a warm and tingling sensation from the waist down,

You smile at the night's sky,

Setting aside your clothing that is no longer needed as you fully immerse yourself in the lapping waves.

Almost surprised by the new strength you have,

You go under the water and find that you can breathe with ease,

No longer relying on the surface air to get by,

Freely swimming as fast as you can.

You enjoy the fullness in your heart center as this mystical night unfolds,

With utter freedom to go wherever you desire.

Up ahead you see a pod of bottlenose dolphins that are playing in the surf,

Breaching the white crests of the turquoise waves before diving deep below the surface.

You approach them,

Waving your tail in a friendly gesture,

And the dolphins surround you,

And you stroke their slick and glistening gray backs with affection.

A friendly female approaches you and encourages you to take hold,

And you do so with a smile,

Your arms around her strong torso,

As she guides you deeper out to sea.

The moonlight so brilliant,

It reflects all around you in the water,

Illuminating deep under the surface.

Feeling so free,

The rush of continuous water that's guided by the lunar pull,

Just as you feel this pull,

Bringing out the greatest feelings of love and appreciation for the moment.

Your arms release from your dolphin friend,

And the two of you take turns,

Showing your special skills,

Exhausting the mystical strength and powers you have been granted on this special night of a strawberry moon.

With one last dash through the water,

Your dolphin playmate nods to you before she returns to her school of friends she left behind,

As if a teacher she imparted the joy of being in the waters and using your strengths to their utmost capabilities.

And now alone,

As the night is wearing on,

You are beginning to feel quite tired and ready to find a place to bed down for the night.

Moving to more shallow waters in the sanctity of another cove,

You encounter a beach cave surrounded by colorful reefs,

Knowing intuitively where to go,

Not for a moment needing to think or analyze.

You just know.

Your intuition is your compass.

It is so easy to use this as your guide.

You easily glide through the rainbow of reefs and accompanying fellow neighbors that are settling for the night.

Reaching out and touching a starfish that floats in the gentle incoming waves,

You feel the rough texture and pet him lovingly as ghouls of fish in neon brilliance swim around you.

You feel the gentle soothing vibrations that their movements make in the water,

Massaging your underside,

And all the living beings that occupy the space so naturally different from one another are able to exist in total harmony.

And continuing on,

You take in this wisdom.

No matter how small a being is,

Their existence may be felt.

Even the smallest in the school of fish can make a tiny ripple that makes a wave.

This thought nurtures and empowers you.

You know how in this expansive universe you may create your own healing ripples of love and kindness.

Moving onward,

You go deep into a sea cave that is a dark cerulean blue.

Diving along the sand,

You go deeper and deeper down.

As you reach the back of the cave,

This is a private retreat,

And waiting for you is a giant clamshell.

It is sparkling and brilliant,

With an opal interior and peachy exterior.

When you float within this peaceful retreat,

Cuddling up and in for the night,

You pull down the top of the clamshell and find yourself in a deep marine darkness,

Nestled above a plush bed within.

As you inhale and exhale,

Bubbles congregate around you like a gentle massage,

Lulling you to sleep.

And you are constantly moving,

Ever so softly,

Floating inside the shell as relaxing waves rock you back and forth.

The salt water is like a tonic,

Settling deep within your tired muscles and bones and taking you further and further into relaxation.

And the sounds of the water,

The soft noise that consumes you like a generous blanket of sonic healing,

Going deeper and deeper down.

Knowing you are in a safe and magical place that will inspire the most healing of dreams and most intuitive connection.

Knowing that there is always a deeper place you may go from the outer world to the depths of the sea.

Into this clam shell retreat,

Visualize going deeper and deeper within,

Into the sacred part of yourself that is always reserved and existing just for you.

Home within,

Floating as freely as sea grass under the starry night sky,

Letting the gentle massaging waves guide it with no other intention than to just be,

To surrender,

To trust,

To relax and ease yourself deeper and deeper down.

To bring you on this easy floating transition toward sleep,

I am going to count you down.

Down to a sleep that will carry healing dreams,

That will bring a brighter tomorrow.

You will awaken feeling refreshed and committed to continuing on this path of healing and enchantment.

Finding yourself in tune with moments of magic and beauty in nature that is always there,

Just waiting to attract your attention,

You will find how easy it is to return to the state of ease any time you like,

Remembering how good it feels to float and go with the tide.

Ten,

Feeling love.

Nine,

Drifting down.

Eight,

Taking in the beauty and ease of being as you float.

Seven,

Going down,

Down.

Six,

Feeling alignment,

How each piece comes together as it should.

Five,

Serene and at peace.

Four,

Floating.

Three,

Finding the flow and going with it.

Two,

Drifting down,

Down,

Down.

One,

Finding peace.

Finding stillness.

Finding sleep.

Tonight.

Good night.
