My name is Reuben.
I'm here to prepare you for the closure of this day.
For the magic of a restful night's sleep.
And allow the smallest of things to enter your mind.
Or if you are simply basking in the space of awareness,
You are drifting off to sleep,
Allowing my words to flow through you without the need for reflection.
This moment,
Your moment,
That is especially for you.
The you that is here for you.
Allowing your body to drop into a restful and restorative night's sleep.
My future self will deal with anything I need tomorrow.
Open up to this moment.
Letting go of the doing is when we come into a restful night.
Your body breathes at its own rate and rhythm.
Being aware of the way it does this.
And there is a you.
Being aware of the sounds around you.
Gently making their way to you.
And there is a you that notices this.
The softness of what you can feel against your skin.
Being aware of the multitude of experiences here.
And there is a you that notices this.
The softness of your body breathing as it does.
The softness of the air as it enters through your nose.
Being aware of these experiences.
The softness that looks out from behind your eyes.
Patterns.
Shapes.
Colours.
Being aware of the you that looks out from behind your eyes.
Knowing that there is a you that is here for you.
This you that can notice all of the five senses.
There is a you that notices.
And as you notice,
You disengage from the world of thinking and into a deeper,
More spacious sense within you.
It is here where the energies of rest,
Restoration and healing take place whilst you drift into a deep and restful night's sleep.
Letting go of everything.
Recognising there is nothing else to do right now.
Nowhere else to be.
Nothing else to think right now.
Let go into the emptiness of awareness.
Into this deep,
Deep,
Restful experience which prepares you for sleep.
Knowing that all you need to do is to relax in body and mind and you will fall asleep.
And to do this,
We need to let go of the need to be asleep.
Noticing my forehead.
Softening.
Noticing my face.
Softening.
Noticing the muscles in my shoulders and back.
Softening.
Noticing my chest and belly.
Softening.
Noticing my legs and feet.
Softening.
Noticing the waves of my breath.
Softening.
Noticing my entire body.
Softening.
Everything is soft and softening.
Everything is soft and softening.
Everything is softening.
Letting go of any notion of needing to do anything.
Under you,
Rested,
Restored and rejuvenated.
Will be there for when you need it.
There is only now.
And as you drift deeper and deeper into the ease and wellbeing of this moment,
You know at the depth of your core that any moment of the past and any moment of the future is never now.
Now is now.
Now is now.
You deserve rest.
You deserve rejuvenation.
You deserve sleep.
Allow.
You deserve rest.
You deserve sleep.
Allow.
I choose to restore my body for the following day.
It all happens as I drift away.
I choose to rejuvenate my body for the following day.
It all happens as I drift away.
I choose to heal my body for the following day.
It all happens as I drift away.
It all happens as I drift away.
It all happens as I drift away.
It all happens as I drift away.
It all happens as I drift away.
It all happens as I drift away.
It all happens as I drift away.
It all happens as I drift away.
It all happens as I drift away.
It all happens as I drift away.
It all happens as I drift away.
It all happens as I drift away.
