Sleep Meditation Trust Yourself - Inner Peace - Deep Sleep

The theme in this sleep meditation is relying more on yourself and your own judgement and first promptings.
Believing in yourself and relying on yourself are essential for personal growth and success; you stand much more firmly in life and are grounded.
When you are confident in your abilities and judgement, you simply dare to make decisions; almost without self-doubt. You pursue your goals with determination and possess a healthy dose of resilience.

Never listen to recordings like these while driving or using machinery,

Only listen in a safe environment.

Do you recognize this?

That at some point you have a plan or an idea,

Or are determined to do or take up something,

And a few hours later or a day later you doubt yourself,

You doubt the plan,

The whole idea,

And then start to tell others about it,

Or ask dear friends around you for advice,

To think with you,

Only to completely lose the threat through the jumble of answers?

It often confuses you more than it helps,

And you get the familiar feeling of being further from home,

Wondering,

What do I really want?

What is the best thing to aim for?

And what to choose?

But all too often you don't make any progress,

You feel lost,

Sort of paralyzed,

And you want so badly to learn to better focus your energy,

But how?

Hello,

My name is Paola Pizzu and in this session you work on both conscious and subconscious levels on believing in your own ability to know what's best for you.

And you will learn to restore confidence in yourself,

Increasing your self-esteem.

Whereby you reduce the impulse,

The tendency to ask others for advice.

And you can increasingly realize that it's possible to focus on and consult yourself.

And in doing so,

Focus on your own needs and what you really want.

Believing in yourself is like a key to get in touch with yourself,

Like the key you use to start the engine of a car or machine,

Because without that ignition key you won't get anywhere,

Drive anywhere,

No matter how hard you try to push yourself forward.

Believing in yourself is the key that allows you to open up what's inside of you.

And if you put on the brakes by doubting yourself,

Then you block what you really want.

On the one hand you want to move forward,

And on the other hand it seems like your feet are trapped in concrete.

And you are longing for and feel you want to move forward,

To get moving,

To be on your way,

To where you want to go.

And you know it's necessary to trust yourself,

That you want to stop doubting the decisions that are on your plate.

You know you feel that you want to trust your own judgment,

Whether others agree with you or think or advise differently.

And you long to be able to stand up for your ideas and plans,

To simply decide.

And that for this,

A realistic,

Positive self-image and sufficient self-confidence is a solid foundation.

And that for this,

A realistic,

Positive self-image and sufficient self-confidence is a solid foundation.

You know and realize 100% that you have all the answers,

Just like everyone else seems to.

You know that if you are proud and happy with your own image,

You can lean on yourself and act on your own handshakes,

Which automatically entails you validating yourself,

Believing in your own judgments,

Being genuinely happy with yourself and easily sharing this with others.

And,

As a side benefit,

Your boundaries also become clearer,

Making it easier to stand up for yourself,

Physically,

Mentally and emotionally.

When you express your boundaries,

Your resilience grows and so does your strength,

Because you regularly take space,

Taking time to engage with yourself,

To create clarity.

And you experience it as an increased confidence to meet yourself in silence,

As it becomes increasingly satisfying to isolate yourself for a while,

To visit yourself,

Just as it becomes easier and easier to put things aside.

You manage to stop running and being constantly busy.

With all that being busy,

You know it's important to take space,

To just sit still for a while,

To think quietly and to enjoy the company of your own thoughts,

And also explore your feelings.

In silence,

It's really quite interesting to meet different sides of yourself,

And before I expand on this,

You can indulge in de-stressing by relaxing.

You really can completely relax here.

And the good news is that you can do this all by yourself,

You can do this all by yourself,

By giving yourself every possible permission to do so.

And you may be guided by my words,

The melody and the sounds of my voice.

And approach these as tools to support and guide you.

To relax on a deep level.

While simultaneously you might experience the solid support by the surface on which you rest.

Each individual is constantly changing in all sorts of ways,

Just as the depth of your relaxation can be changed,

Deepens.

And to achieve this,

I ask you,

In case you've already closed your eyes,

To open them and focus your beautiful eyes on the ceiling.

At one single point,

Trying to blink as little as possible.

On my cue,

You close them immediately,

And as soon as the eyelids touch,

You can let yourself sink deeper into relaxation.

And as you continue to breathe calmly,

Notice how thereafter the calmness spreads throughout.

Now close your eyes.

And allow yourself to sink further into relaxation.

Relax.

And,

As you do so,

Feel the sensation of how the tension melts away in your body.

That's right.

We'll do this a second time.

And stare at the ceiling.

And see if you manage to barely blink your eyes.

And slowly and very surely,

Your eyes feel heavier and heavier,

As if they're yearning more and more.

And that's what you do now.

And now,

You close your eyes.

And let yourself sink twice as deep into relaxation.

Your relaxation multiplies,

And an illuminating,

Relaxing,

Calm wave spreads within you.

And you can just let this happen,

And witness that you surrender and sink further into tranquility.

All good things come in threes,

They say,

And hence that you open your eyes now,

Once more,

And look at the ceiling.

And within just a little while,

It becomes harder and harder to keep the ever heavier and heavier eyelids open.

As if an invisible weight is spooling them down.

And you close them.

And you let your eyelids fall shut.

And close the outside world outside,

Making it so much easier to double your relaxation once more.

And once again,

The relieving,

Relaxing,

Calm wave spreads through your body.

And as you lie here,

Breathing calmly,

You may scan your body and notice how much more it has already calmed down.

And if you take the space to listen to your breathing,

You will notice that it's already much calmer and a little slower.

The inhalation has naturally become a little deeper and slower.

With each breath arriving in your belly and seeming to reverse there,

To then flow out at its leisure,

At a gradual pace that suits your relaxed state of being.

And I guess,

As you lie here,

You're wondering things about how to trust yourself more and really believe in yourself.

And that fact alone,

That you're doing this,

Means that you're learning things that you're open to learning.

Simply because you're open to it.

And I assume that's why you're here now and not there.

To gain insights and understanding.

And you can learn and gain insights,

Can't you?

Just because you've done this so many times before.

People can learn,

That's obvious.

Just as obvious as you are a human being who can learn.

And that's something great to realize.

As you lie here,

Utterly calm in the dusk or darkness and listening to all the words that pass,

Which means that your subconscious is also listening in.

Because this part of you,

Which is so curious and where so much wisdom dwells,

Is always eagerly listening in.

And it's a fact that your subconscious knows more than you think you know.

And it learns in its own way.

And it lets you know things in its own way,

With a gentle inner voice allowing you to grow.

So that you trust what you want,

On that first touch,

On that what you like.

And trust your own judgement and insight that makes you feel satisfied,

Which makes you feel really good.

So at the core,

You trust yourself and you love yourself,

Which makes you see the love from others better.

And probably you can receive their love better.

Just as you are more open to receiving and approving your own ideas and inspirations.

By starting to tell yourself that you are enough.

Just enough.

And you may repeat these words silently to yourself within.

By which you know and realise,

At the deepest level,

That you are saying these to yourself.

I am enough,

Just the way I am.

Enough,

Just the way I am.

And it may well be that this feels a little unusual and unnatural,

To say this to yourself and feel it intensely.

And how delightful it is to know that you were never the only one that struggled with the same questions.

And that someone once started for you by saying these words to themselves.

Exactly as I am.

Just the way I am.

And then,

Step by step,

Integrated the meaning and really started to feel it deep down inside.

Which made it easier to act from confidence,

As with everything in which you persevere.

Resulting in self-belief and knowing,

Deep inside,

That you are enough.

Exactly as you are.

And you are also of sufficient value,

Just the way you are.

Even though you probably aren't a millionaire,

Haven't written a book,

And even if you're not the politician who contributes to world peace,

You really have done so much in all your life.

And though that may feel a little strange and unnatural at first,

Because sometimes you're afraid that you've failed,

Or that you've given up on something that could have done more.

But you did your best.

You were there.

You genuinely spoke up.

You contributed to the best of your ability.

And that's just good enough.

And who you are at your core,

That's enough.

Because you are enough.

Exactly the way you are.

Exactly the way you are.

As you lie here quietly,

Your eyes closed,

While your body lies here undisturbed and calm,

You allow your attention to shift to your breathing.

To the regular rhythm of your breathing.

In Out Like waves rolling up and down the beach.

A comforting calm back and forth.

Noticing that on inhalation the air flows smoothly into your body,

And how this brings pleasant calm.

And on the exhale you blow all the air out,

And you can release even more of what you would like to let go.

As you keep breathing,

Feeling yourself sinking deeper into a state of deep relaxation.

Each breath is a gentle wave,

Carrying you further into an oasis of calm within.

An oasis of calm.

And the word oasis has so many meanings.

It's known as a part of a desert,

Or a lowland,

And it's always a natural green place.

A beautiful spot,

A lovely place where it's pleasant to dwell.

Or it is described as an enjoyable place,

A paradise where there's peace and quiet.

Where you can rest comfortably and silently in serene atmospheres.

And I'm sure you know what your oasis looks like,

And have images of it.

Where it is,

And what it exactly looks like there.

And you see it appearing before you.

And you see it appearing before you.

Or you just imagine that picture,

Your oasis,

And everything you need there.

Because you simply think of it,

And take a few moments to fill in your own oasis.

Your paradise and retreat,

Where it's good to leisure.

Picturing it yourself here.

Arriving in your oasis as if you breathe it in.

Whilst listening to the singing of the birds that reside here.

Because it's also an oasis for birds.

As you keep breathing,

You feel yourself sinking deeper into a state of relaxation.

Each breath is a gentle wave,

Carrying you further into the oasis of calm within.

While being aware of the birds chirping happily here.

And one of them hops closer,

As it tilts its head slightly to contact you.

And you know exactly what kind of bird it is.

Maybe it's a sparrow.

A great tit.

Or a robin.

Maybe you rent or some other bird that has flown up to your knee and rest there.

With its little head slightly tilted.

And it looks at you and it's clear that it wants to say anything to you from its little bird heart.

And you hear the voice of this tiny beautiful bird speaking softly.

Give yourself a great gift,

It says.

And the greatest gift of all that you can give yourself and a first step you can take.

Is fully trusting and believing yourself.

I ask this for you.

Whether you want to start believing this and to sail on your own strength and your personal power.

And in doing so,

You don't need anyone else telling you that this is okay,

That it's totally fine.

That's over now.

You don't need permission or approval from anyone else to believe that you're good enough.

You're the only one you have and in complete freedom you can choose at any moment to start accepting and loving who you are.

It's all yours.

It's all within your reach.

And the small special bird now moves to your hand and stays there for a while.

In this very moment you're aware of the bird and you're quiet breathing.

The gentle ebb and flow of your breath.

The calm,

Steady undulation as the essence of life in the oasis you've created.

Where serene silence reigns and you find solace and calm in the simplicity of each inhalation and exhalation.

And the bird looks at you from your hand to guide you further with its gentle words.

You should feel,

Continues your feathered friend,

What you feel.

No matter whether it's beautiful or ugly.

For you're human and pushing feelings away never makes them disappear.

Nor does denying them.

For them you are denying parts of yourself.

It's better to accept all your beauty and shadows in all honesty.

Which,

By the way,

Contributes to trusting yourself.

Whether you are happy,

Sad,

Angry or,

Who knows,

Slightly jealous,

It's all feeling.

And if you hide these,

They're still there.

Somewhere hidden in a dark corner.

Acknowledging and accepting all there is within you is the key to building self-confidence.

Because,

You know,

There's a reason you feel what you feel.

And think what you think.

It has a core that can be discovered.

Which,

If you have faced it and explored it thoroughly,

Can transform.

Because then you know yourself so much better,

Understand yourself better.

And you can look at yourself with love.

Trusting that you are everything.

Nothing human is alien to you.

As you peacefully come to deep rest here.

And quiet yourself through the calm rhythm of your breathing.

The regular rhythm of breathing in.

In which you breathe in,

Trust and believe in yourself.

And on the exhale,

Releasing that which you would like to let go.

And this also means,

The bird whispers in your ear,

That you can set boundaries.

Say no,

Or,

Or,

Another time would suit me better.

Those words are short phrases that actually express taking good care of yourself.

Taking good care of yourself.

Protecting yourself,

Or regularly isolating yourself for a while,

Is like a key.

A beginning.

An entrance to work on trusting yourself.

Instead of losing confidence because you let others overstep your bounds.

Therefore,

Whispers the little bird,

Build in enough space for self-care.

During moments,

During the week,

Or even daily.

To be in touch with yourself and what you do.

So that you can stand up for yourself much better and can tolerate and have so much more.

With the result that,

Your happiness,

Patience and self-confidence grow with you naturally.

By building that good relationship with yourself.

And by starting to listen to your authentic voice.

Your inner voice that says.

I seek reassurance from myself and tune into how I feel about a situation.

I consult myself when I'm faced with an important decision.

I make a decision,

Stick to it and accept how it turns out.

I tune into my needs and desires and set aside space to connect with myself.

I value my thoughts and intuition as well as the perspective of others.

They're equal to each other.

I'm happy and proud to have made a decision and take responsibility for it.

I choose to take a path and am curious about what it brings me.

If it makes sense,

I take another road or turn.

I consider the choices of others,

But I choose my own path.

I don't need the confirmation of others when I come to a decision.

I'll sail by my own compass.

I believe in my strength and think positively about myself,

Others and situations.

As a result,

I am confident,

Balanced and experienced.

Balanced and experience harmony.

By making choices,

My confidence in myself grows.

I believe in myself and my talents and abilities.

I'm happy with the value I have for myself and the value I have for others.

I believe in myself and I trust myself.

Lying here with your eyes closed in the pleasant company of yourself,

Attuned to the quiet rhythm of your inhalation and exhalation,

In its unraveled ebb and flow,

You find a peaceful sanctuary,

A timeless sanctuary where you reside effortlessly in calmness.

With every inhale,

You welcome serenity.

With each exhalation,

You release restlessness,

So that peace can envelop you completely.

In the rhythm of your breath,

You can discover a boundless oasis of calm.

Discover that in the simple act of breathing lies a profound power to bring yourself to deep peace.

The special bird,

Your feathered friend,

Sits on your shoulder here and whispers kindly but relentlessly on,

That while you quiet yourself with the help of your breath,

You do this in silence and you simultaneously spend time with yourself in a quiet place of peace,

Where no one interferes in your conversation with yourself,

Enjoying the lavish space,

All the space for yourself,

In which,

Without any distractions,

You muse,

Think and sort things out for yourself,

Clearing your head,

Dusting off your thoughts for a little more overview,

Allowing your vision to expand and the like,

And as a result,

Your ownership grows,

Your overall vision,

So that you hardly ever give in to good advice,

Insights of others,

And you trust far more your inner compass,

And you focus on your own insights through space and time,

And simply distance yourself from everything around you,

Because in the company of yourself,

You can listen to yourself remarkably better,

And can receive the messages,

The messages to yourself,

As if you have a fixed line to your own voice and will,

A fixed line to and with yourself,

To talk to yourself for self-talk,

To hear yourself,

Your own voice,

To trust that,

To trust yourself,

To build on,

Lying in the oasis,

Your own oasis of peace,

Where calm reign and where serenity abounds,

Stay here only as long as you need,

Return here as often as you need to,

You can always return here,

To this peaceful state whenever you want,

To be with yourself,

To talk to yourself,

In confidence to believe in yourself more,

Or to fall asleep peacefully,

And rest and doze off deliciously,

While far in the distance you hear a kind voice,

As you slumber and softly fall asleep,

I had to use it twice because I woke up but I got a really good night’s sleep. Thank you..
