Hey kids,
I know going to bed can be so hard.
Maybe you don't want to go to bed yet,
Or maybe you don't feel tired yet,
Or maybe you just don't want to miss out on all the fun that's still happening.
Or maybe you're even a bit nervous about something that happens tomorrow,
So you don't want today to end and tomorrow to come.
But,
In order for you to have a great day tomorrow,
It is really important that you have a good rest tonight.
And sleeping well helps to make sure that you continue to grow and be healthy.
Let's get cozy in our bed.
Close your eyes and let's take a deep breath in.
I'm going to let you in on a little secret.
You don't actually have to fall asleep in this session.
Let's just relax and allow your thinking mind to rest and your body to relax and then the rest will happen all on its own without you having to do anything for it.
Now to help you relax,
I will say a phrase and then you can repeat it in your mind or whisper it out slowly,
Softly.
I will say each phrase twice to help your body relax.
Let's begin.
My feet are very heavy and warm.
My feet are very heavy and warm.
My calves are very heavy and warm.
My calves are very heavy and warm.
My thighs are very heavy and warm.
My thighs are very heavy and warm.
My hips are very heavy and warm.
My hips are very heavy and warm.
My back is very heavy and warm.
My back is very heavy and warm.
My hands are very heavy and warm.
My hands are very heavy and warm.
My arms are very heavy and warm.
My arms are very heavy and warm.
My arms are very heavy and warm.
My shoulders are very heavy and warm.
My shoulders are very heavy and warm.
My belly is soft and warm.
My belly is soft and warm.
My heart is beating regularly.
My heart is beating regularly.
My breath is calm.
My breath is calm.
I am relaxed and at peace.
I am relaxed and at peace.
Now imagine yourself floating on a soft fluffy cloud.
The cloud carries you gently through the sky,
Rocking you softly like a hammock.
And the song that's playing is your lullaby that helps you feel so relaxed.
You feel lighter and lighter,
Floating in peaceful dreamy air.
The stars twinkle above and sending you sweet sleepy wishes.
Now let your body rest and I want you to know you are safe,
You are loved and you are ready for beautiful dreams.
Good night.
