Hello,

My name is Robert Aceves and I welcome you to this Savasana for deep sleep meditation.

Savasana is one of my favorite poses in yoga and usually after a long class of an hour or 90 minutes we tend to do Savasana to relax the body,

To adjust our energy,

And to relax.

And so today we're going to use this exercise,

This yoga pose,

To relax and for deep sleep.

I'm going to ask you to find a comfortable spot where you can relax,

Preferably lay down on the floor or on a bed,

Facing up and get into a very comfortable position and close your eyes.

Take a deep breath in and exhale.

Take another deep breath in and as you exhale I'm going to ask you to imagine that you're letting go of all the worries of your day and all the tension in your body,

Leaving your body as you exhale.

Inhaling and exhaling and feeling more and more comfortable.

And when we talk about Savasana,

Savasana means the corpse pose,

Meaning that you're literally just laying on the floor and you're just relaxing.

And when we talk about Savasana,

You're literally just laying on the floor like a dead body because we're going to let go of all the tension and all the stress so we can relax in a very deep way.

And so today we're going to be cultivating this sensation of relaxation throughout your whole body.

There's no need to move,

Just lay there in a comfortable position,

Feeling your body,

How it starts to relax before you go to sleep.

Usually it's a gradual relaxation,

Little by little allowing sleep to come through.

And we don't know when you're going to fall asleep,

Noticing how your chest moves up and down with each inhalation and exhalation.

Feeling your breath.

Focusing on your breath as we start to count your breath.

Starting from the number 10 backwards to number 1.

So every time you inhale you're going to count to 10.

And as you exhale that would be 9 and when you inhale that would be 8.

And as you exhale that would be 7 and so on.

And you're going to count all the way down to 1.

And when you get to 1 you're going to go back to 10 and start all over.

Slowly repeating those numbers in your mind and saying those words in your mind as you continue to count your breath becoming more and more aware of your breathing.

Taking your time to focus your attention on each breath and counting it.

And as you exhale that would be 9 and when you inhale that would be 8.

And that's it.

Now you're going to bring your awareness to your chest.

Once again feeling your chest going up and down.

Being aware of that movement in your body as you continue to breathe and count your breaths once again from 10 to 1.

Just like we were doing earlier.

Inhaling 10.

Inhaling again.

8.

With love and good intentions throughout your body and mind.

Fill in your mind with good thoughts and feelings and sensations that will translate into a beautiful feeling of well-being throughout your day.

Such as the taste of your favorite food.

The water falling down on your body as you take a shower.

The smell of the rain.

The smell of your favorite flowers.

The feeling of the sun on your face.

Relaxing more and more.

Going to sleep for as long as you wish and that you feel is necessary in order to heal your body and mind.

So sleep now and may infinite happiness fill your soul.
