Hello beloved soul.
This is a session I designed for you to be able to get to a place of deep rest.
This is an ideal evening meditation.
It is something designed to help you prep for bed so that way you feel light,
Comfortable within yourself.
You feel elevated,
Centered,
And grounded before your head even hits the pillow.
And all you need to do is set the intention of letting go your day,
Of relaxing,
Of feeling at ease.
I'd like for you right now to just let your body drop into your chair or your bed and just release your body.
Release your body.
Release the weight of your body as though you're feeling at last I get to rest.
At last my day is over.
At last,
At last,
At last.
I've been waiting all day for this release,
For this letting go,
To get to this point where I have nothing else to do today.
And at last that moment is here.
There is nothing left to do today.
Congratulate yourself on living life one more day on this earth.
Today you've had a series of little wins or big wins.
You've paid your bills.
You've done your errands or your chores.
You've done some things and you've left other things incomplete.
But no matter,
The day for you is over.
And all that is left is for you to just breathe,
To breathe,
And to be within your body.
There's nothing left for you to do today.
Just let go.
Let your chair or your bed take your full weight.
Close your eyes and just release your body.
Feel as though you've been carrying a hundred pound weight that you just suddenly dropped.
And this weight is your weight from the day.
It's your baggage of the day.
It's your baggage of the day.
All the things that you've been doing,
Constantly planning,
Constantly intending,
Constantly.
Things you've been taking care of.
People you've been taking care of.
Value you've been giving.
Energy you've been giving.
Now more.
Now is the time to replenish and re-energize.
Follow me in that deep breath.
That was a breath of release.
Intense release.
Let's release like that.
Deep breath in.
Deep breath in.
And breathe out.
Your day is over finally at last.
This is the moment that you've been waiting for all day.
A moment of rest and peace and serenity.
Deep breath in.
Deep breath out.
When you exhale,
Release all your thoughts from the day.
All the should-do's,
Must-do's,
Have-do's.
The things you achieved.
The things you didn't get to achieve.
The things you want to do tomorrow.
Now,
Enough thinking.
Enough thinking.
Just be with your breath.
Be with your breath in this moment.
This intention of deep relaxation.
Of this letting go.
There's no one you have to be.
Nothing you have to do.
Nowhere you have to go.
Nothing you need to achieve.
Nothing you have to plan for.
Nothing you have to do.
Nothing at all.
Observe your breath getting shallower and shallower.
Notice your body.
Notice your body feeling rested,
Carried by your chair or by your bed.
And letting go of the day isn't something you're forcing.
It is something you're welcoming.
It's an experience.
It's a state of being.
And I'd like for you to breathe in and out deeply if you're needing to,
As a process of letting go from the day.
Notice any emotions you're holding on to.
Is there anything pent up inside?
Where is that in your body?
Maybe it's over your chest,
Your abdomen,
Your neck and shoulders.
Maybe somewhere on your face,
Like between your eyebrows.
Find that tension.
Find the emotions and the thoughts that are feeding that tension.
Let go.
And if there are lingering thoughts and emotions that are gnawing at you,
Letting go doesn't mean pushing them away.
Because pushing thoughts and emotions away creates conflict.
Letting go is really just a willingness to say,
That's quite enough for now.
My attention is going to be on something else.
My attention is just going to be on my breathing or my relaxation or just feelings of low stress and low tension in my body.
Maybe there are areas of my body that have no stress at all.
Find those areas.
Observe what it's like having no tension.
See if the rest of your body wants that.
Imagine a body with zero tension.
Is that possible?
Have you experienced that before?
If you have,
Great.
If you haven't,
Let's do it right now.
And it begins with willingness.
It begins with the willingness to just get to a place of relaxation,
Intending to get a good night's sleep,
Being willing to feel elevated,
To feel clear,
To feel the freedom that comes with not having any stress.
If you use stress and anxiety as motivation to be a go-getter,
That creates a toll on the body.
And the body becomes used to it and it's constantly in fight or flight mode.
And it creates different medical ailments such as insomnia.
Let's be willing to not be in that state.
How about we be willing to feel safe and secure,
Being in our environment right now,
Just breathing while we sit or lay down,
While we're just intending to be present with ourselves,
Present with our breath,
Present within our bodies.
Let's just be present.
You and me right here,
We're breathing and not doing anything else.
How relaxing is that?
Let's just breathe together,
Out-breaths,
Deep-breaths,
Doesn't matter.
And if you feel like it,
You can put your hand over your heart or over your abdomen,
Whatever you feel like.
Whatever comes naturally to you.
Of anything you're holding onto in your body,
Here's an intention for you.
I intend to feel elevated.
I intend to feel free.
I intend to feel clear so I can get a good night's rest.
To get a good night's rest.
How about that?
I'm really motivated to get a good night's rest.
If your body starts feeling tired,
Just welcome it.
Welcome the feeling of exhaustion and tiredness,
Sleepiness,
Body feels.
You're only here listening to this because you want to.
You want to get to a place where you can sleep,
Where you can decompress.
And so if you weren't feeling tired before,
Hopefully you're recognizing your own tiredness right now.
It's time for deep rest and rejuvenate tension.
Focus on it.
Be willing to release that tension.
Grounded,
Clear,
Centered,
Balanced.
And that you're in a better place to nod off quickly.
So I will take my leave of you now and hopefully thank you for your time today.
I wish you a good night's rest.
Take care.
