You're awake. And that is okay. Do not check the time because looking at the clock only starts the mental countdown. So just keep your eyes closed. And do not move except to make yourself comfortable. Take a deep breath in through your nose. And let it go through your mouth. With a soft, Quiet sigh. Your brain woke up by accident. And it's just a false alarm. Nothing needs your attention right now. Right now. Your body is holding small pockets of tension from waking up suddenly. Let's release them instantly. Smooth out your forehead. Unclench your jaw. Drop your tongue away from the roof of your mouth. And drop your shoulders an inch lower into the mattress Relax your hands, Relax your palms. Feel the heavy warmth of your blanket. Pressing gently against you. To flip your nervous system back into sleep mode. Take two quick inhales through your nose, Then one long slow exhale through your mouth. Inhale deeply. Inhale a little more. Now, Release slowly through your mouth. All the way to the end. Do it once more. Inhale deeply. Sniff a little extra air in. And exhale long and smooth. Fading into the dark room. You are safe. You are warm. You are going right back to sleep. Until we rest together again. This is Monica. Wishing you calm and restorative night. Rest easy. That's it.
