Alright sweet one,
Snuggle into your bed and get comfortable.
Let your blanket hug you and allow your head to rest on your pillow.
Gently close your eyes.
Take a slow,
Deep breath in through your nose.
And slowly breathe out through your mouth.
Again,
Breathing in calm and breathing out the day.
You don't have to do anything right now.
You can just listen and rest.
You are a little light.
Imagine that deep inside of you there is a tiny,
Warm light.
The light is always there.
It's been with you since the day you were born.
The light is curious.
It likes to try new things.
It likes to learn.
It likes to grow.
Tonight,
This little light wants to talk to you.
The light gently says,
It's okay to try things that have never been done.
It's okay to not get it right the first time.
Every mistake is just a way of learning.
Imagine the light growing a little brighter every time you try something new.
When you trip,
The light doesn't disappear.
It shines even more.
When you mess up,
The light doesn't leave you.
It stays and says,
That's how we learn.
You don't have to be perfect,
Little one.
You just have to be you.
Now imagine a soft path in front of you,
Surrounded by wildflowers that are pink and blue and yellow.
The sky is a gentle blue and there is fluffy clouds that float by.
The path is lined with grass and dirt and stones and pebbles that twinkle in the sunlight.
The path is called the path of living.
The path is not straight.
It has twists and gentle turns.
There are little bumps and surprises along the way.
And the most beautiful moments arise as you walk on by.
You begin to notice the butterflies floating near you.
They flutter their wings in the most magical colors.
They don't rush.
They don't worry about yesterday or tomorrow.
They just float and they fly and they live,
Enjoying each moment,
Each flower as they pass by.
The light inside you whispers,
Life is not about getting it right,
Little one.
It's about living and feeling and learning.
You notice that your path is made of tiny glowing moments.
Each moment is special.
Each one matters.
The light inside gently reminds you,
Time is a gift.
That's why we laugh.
That's why we try.
That's why we keep going even when things feel hard.
Not because we need to hurry,
But because every day is important.
You don't need to be afraid of time,
Little one.
Time is your friend.
It helps you grow.
As you walk the path,
You see signs along the way.
Wonder.
Wander.
Be curious.
Feel your feelings.
Rest when you are tired.
The light inside you glows and warmly says,
You are brave,
Little one.
You are brave when you try.
You are strong,
Little one.
You are strong when you learn.
You are enough,
Little one.
You are enough just as you are.
You don't have to know everything right now.
You are allowed to grow slowly.
As you continue to walk down the path in the meadow,
The path gently fades away.
You've found yourself back in your bed,
And the little light inside you settles into a calm,
Cozy glow.
It will stay with you tomorrow and the next day,
And every day after that.
Your breathing is slow.
Your body feels heavy and safe.
The light whispers one last thing.
Go live.
Go learn.
Go rest.
Sleep wraps around you softly now.
Your body melts into the mattress.
You are cozy and warm in your blankets.
And your body feels heavy.
The clouds drift by,
And the night sky is dark with little stars twinkling up above.
You ease into a gentle sleep.
Good night,
Brave little light.
Sweet dreams.
Thanks for watching!
