Pulling as much air as you can and just let it go.
Allow yourself another full and beautiful breath,
Letting it go without pushing the air out too hard.

We are going to go through one more focus scan on the front of our bodies,
Starting at your forehead.
Many of us hold tension in our foreheads,
So allow your forehead to just melt away,
Allowing wrinkles to flatten.
This also relaxes the front cortex of the brain.
The place of creative formulation.

Every single part of your body is so relaxed right now.
Just enjoy this feeling for some time.
Now you're going to relax your body one more time,
But in a different way.
A fully relaxed body makes sleep come easily and effortlessly.
Make a fist with both of your hands and squeeze as hard as you can for five seconds.
Then let go completely.
This is called tensing or tense.
Tense your entire arm flexing every muscle in your arms for five whole seconds.
And release completely.
Now tense your chest and abs as much as you can,
Holding it for an entire five seconds.
And relax your chest and abs.

And five.
Relax your feet.

By doing this,
You activate and then deactivate each muscle in your body,
Causing a continuous relaxation.
Now just stop doing anything at all.
Don't flex or relax anything.
Don't activate or rest any area.
Just allow yourself to be.
Allow for your body to adjust to anything it sees is needed.
Allow for your body to have complete freedom from thought.
Let your body be in control now,
To heal what needs to be healed or activate what needs to activate or rest when needs to rest.
It will do exactly as it needs now,
Without your conscious effort or even your suggestion.
This is the natural state of your body when you allow the mind to step away from it.
When your mind gets out of the way,
Our bodies can take charge in miraculous ways,
Changing hormones,
Chemicals,
Frequencies,
The very structure of each cell.
This is what sleep and rest are for.
Sleeping fully allows for a mind to let go of the body so that it can regenerate.
For a long while now,
Allow your body to do what it does best.
Rest and sleep.
You
