Welcome to Sleepy Adventures.
My name is Reuben and here we are.
Today's sleepy adventure is called Wisdom of.
.
.
Find your favorite sleeping position.
Allow the surroundings of comfort and ease to gently envelope you.
The familiar,
Friendly pull of gravity.
Noticing this pull from the earth.
Appreciating the fact that you chose this moment.
This moment for you and from you.
This is your time.
This is your space.
Moving into the space of imagination.
Into the realm where all good things happen.
Imagine a way for a year and a day.
Let's go for a drive.
I'm happy for you to be my guest.
Let's see where we end up.
Feel free to open the car door and get into the passenger seat.
Here we are.
About to go.
The car is unusually quiet.
Unusual in a nice way.
It's so calming as we roll off on our journey.
There's something magic about this journey.
It's as though the physical world as we know it is changing.
Take a look into the side mirror.
Can you see the trees fade away into the horizon?
Here comes the rain.
That gentle pitter-patter of rain begins to form on the front windscreen.
No more than a few drops to start with.
Let's stop off for a moment,
Shall we?
Look at that for perfect timing.
There's a lay-by coming up.
Let's pull over here.
Let's stop and listen to the rain on the windscreen.
I don't know about you,
But it's as though the raindrops are pulling my attention.
See what it's like to get familiar with the pattern of the rain which starts to run down the window.
Right here and now,
You can be as lazy as you like.
What might it be like to let go completely?
And what's left is this you.
This living,
Caring human being.
Simply being,
Which is non-doing and gently noticing.
I am aware of myself noticing.
I am aware of being aware.
Thoughts can do what they want.
They can be where they are.
That space that holds my thoughts can be soft.
That place where I experience feelings can also be soft and spacious whilst I absorb this very moment.
Because this is everything.
There's so much that we hold on to in life.
And this is a moment to let go of that.
How you feel about this.
How you feel about that.
We put so much pressure on ourselves.
We feel we need to get things right.
Our friendships,
The roles we play in different environments in our lives.
The people we need to connect with.
The people we need to be acquainted with.
But right here and now,
This is your space.
Space.
Me.
Here.
Now.
With everything that comes and goes.
And my gentle awareness that notices moments like these are magnificent.
They can help us experience a little more deeply.
Something that goes beyond the words.
Here I am.
This is me.
This is it.
In my immediate surroundings.
All is well.
A beautiful little opportunity to sit and notice.
I am aware of myself noticing.
My dear body.
Here you are.
Here we are.
This is me.
And with a little half smile,
Sometimes that acknowledgement can bring a soft feeling tone of kindness,
Which starts within and emanates without.
There's something magic surrounding us now.
It's everywhere.
You can drift away for a year and a day.
You can go up there if you like.
You can float up there.
Anything is possible up there.
It's kind and spacious.
That's the only way that I can describe it.
All is well in this kind,
Loving and spacious place.
This space is always here for you.
Holding this kind,
Loving and spacious place.
I feel content.
So content.
I can sense that you are too.
Moving deeper into the realm of imagination.
Moving into the realm where all things good are possible.
My sleepy adventure.
What does it mean?
Now I drift off into a dream.
This space is here for me.
I am here for me.
My body heals in the softness of this moment.
My body is nourished in the softness of this moment.
My body is restored in the softness of this moment.
I am fully at peace.
I am here for me.
My body.
My mind.
Nothing else matters but this time.
It's time for deep,
Restorative sleep.
And from the depth of my core,
I know this to be true.
All is well in this kind,
Loving and spacious place.
My sleepy adventure.
What does it mean?
Now I drift off into a dream.
