Welcome to this guided meditation for sleep.

As we begin this meditation,

Give yourself a moment to make sure that your sleeping space is quiet and safe from all distractions.

Turn off your cell phone,

Set any alarm you need to wake up in the morning and write down any tasks you must get to accomplish tomorrow.

As you perform these quiet activities,

Allow yourself to begin to let go of your day.

If you need to do this now,

Pause this recording and come back and we will begin.

Take a few seconds to stretch out your arms and yawn,

Easing any muscle tension before you pull back the covers and settle into your bed.

Pull the blankets up around you and allow your head to drift backwards towards the surface of your bed.

As it touches the pillow,

You hear a soft rustle as it brushes against the fabric,

Sinking into the soft stuffing inside.

And yet,

Just as you feel your head resting against your pillow,

You notice a gentle force pulling you downwards.

You are being drawn ever so softly through the mattress and towards a profoundly relaxing and restful experience.

It is almost as if an invisible magnet is drawing you downwards with a soft but irresistible magnetic pull.

Let yourself drift downwards with this current and begin to notice a warm,

Heavy sensation beginning at your heart.

With each breath,

This comfortable heaviness spreads from your core out to your fingertips,

Filling your body with a gentle and relaxing weight.

Allow yourself to let go,

Leaving any thoughts or concerns behind as you are drawn from your bed into a soft white light below you.

Notice it is this gentle light that draws you as strongly as a magnet.

Breathe deeply,

Releasing any and all expectations about your upcoming experiences.

Free any worries that come to visit as you relax,

Knowing that you will be totally safe within this space.

Everyone leads a busy life,

And many days are filled with the hectic schedules and stressful demands,

However,

Your stress and tension has not passed with you through these clouds.

In this time and space,

You have the opportunity to let go of your worries and fears,

And take some time to simply be.

So embrace this chance to be without thinking,

And instead focus your mind on the warmth and drowsiness filling your limbs.

Allow yourself to move softly and intuitively through this meditation,

Allowing the physical sensations around you to be your focus instead of the thoughts or worries.

Breathe deeply.

You are drifting downwards,

Growing closer and closer to the glowing white light you noticed before.

As you get closer to it,

You feel your shoulders effortlessly release the stress they bear.

Notice the way your cheeks smooth out,

Frown lines vanishing as you move nearer to this light.

Your tongue falls away from the roof of your mouth.

The backs of your knees dissolve into relaxation as the muscles in the body finally let go of the tension you have carried with you today.

With every breath,

You melt into this peaceful landscape.

You become relaxed with as little effort as a feather fluttering from the sky to the soft ground below.

Feel your limbs become heavier and heavier as your mind softens and your breathing slows down,

Finally reaching a deep and restful pace.

As you are drawn closer to the glowing white light,

You allow yourself to be absorbed into the gentle warmth it emits.

When this warmth enters your body,

Flowing through your veins and erasing aches and pains,

You realize what you are drifting into,

A velvety bed of fluffy white clouds.

Feel the softness of the clouds around you,

Even more luxurious and comforting than the stuffing of your pillow.

The clouds are warm,

Delicately reaching out to embrace you.

Your head drifts into the airy whiteness surrounding you,

Closely followed by your torso,

Your outstretched arms and legs.

Your whole body is supported by the ethereal yet unquestionably sturdy fibers of a thousand clouds.

As you are welcomed by this velvety softness,

Allow your mind to focus on your whole body,

Absorbing the gentle touch of the clouds as you sink deeper and deeper into relaxation and peace.

The deeper and deeper you drift,

The more you feel delicate,

Cool tendrils brush against your skin as they wipe away any wrinkles on your forehead.

These wisps soften tense muscles and leave you feeling rested and drowsy.

Allow yourself to continue to sink deeper into the clouds and accompanying relaxation.

Drift on this gentle plateau of clouds for a moment,

Savoring the absence of thoughts around you and the sensations that comes with it.

Feel the soft heat of the sun on your face and your eyelids as they drift shut.

Allow yourself to breathe deeply,

Inhaling the gentle sunlight and exhaling any stress or tension from your day.

Relaxing on your breath brings you to an even deeper sense of calm and relaxation,

In fact as you breathe deeper and deeper.

Closer to the bottom of your lungs,

You begin to notice thoughts and worries as brightly colored balloons surround your resting place.

These concerns take shape as you watch them,

Moving through the same sky as you.

The thoughts above you drift back and forth,

Attached to you with thin,

Nearly invisible strings.

Although these thought balloons are fascinating to watch move across the sky above you,

They hold you aloft when all you want to do is sink further into the welcoming bed of the clouds around you.

So take a moment to look at these thoughts above you,

Say thank you for their presence with you today.

As you examine and watch your thoughts,

Imagine cutting all the thin threads binding them to you.

Watch these thought balloons drift upwards,

Their strings dancing merrily as they rise into the air above you.

Watch them until the small,

Colorful shapes disappear from view.

Know that these buoyant thoughts are gone,

Leaving you free to sink further and further into the soft whiteness around you.

Breathe deeply and notice how your body feels.

If you notice thoughts or concerns appearing in your mind's eye,

Simply thank them for all the work they've done today and cut them loose,

Watching them float away far from view This place is for noticing the sensations in your body and savoring the relaxation that comes with it.

Allow yourself to take a deep breath and enjoy it all.

Allow yourself to keep drifting downwards,

Feel the way the clouds' touch brushes pain from your neck.

Notice how it erases the tightness in your back,

Allowing your whole spinal cord to lengthen and soften.

Your legs become heavy and still,

Calmed by the presence of the clouds around you.

Savor the warmth in your feet and the relaxation in your eyes.

Your whole body becomes heavier,

Softened by your gentle descent through the clouds.

Your progress is slow and effortless,

A safe and peaceful journey deeper and deeper.

Give yourself time to simply be here in this space.

If your mind begins to wander,

Bring it gently back to the soothing sensations of your sleepy limbs.

Breathe deeply,

Exhale,

Sighing out all tension.

You are totally relaxed,

Comfortable and at peace in this moment.

Allow yourself to feel your body as it is being gently pulled slowly downwards through the soft fluffiness of the clouds around you.

Give your muscles permission to soften,

To relax.

Let yourself breathe deeply,

Sighing out any aches or pain.

You are at peace here.

Drift on the clouds,

Sinking slowly into deeper and deeper relaxation.

Feel your chest rise and fall with your breath.

Watch your tension melt away,

Leaving your entire body and mind soft and relaxed.

Savor the heaviness in your arms and legs and allow yourself to appreciate the slow,

Drowsy feelings that meander through your body.

On your next inhale,

Breathe in deeply,

And then exhale,

Feeling your back releasing,

Your face softening,

And your shoulders drooping.

Enjoy the way your quiet,

Resting body feels in this space.

Allow yourself to be pulled down further and further,

Sinking even deeper into the plush softness of the clouds around you.

As you drift through the clouds around you,

You have time to appreciate the warmth and softness surrounding and supporting your body.

You have released the thoughts and worries that hold you back,

And you now have all the time in the world to simply drift and breathe,

Enjoying your breath and your drowsy body.

Allow yourself the space to enjoy this experience,

Breathing deeply and feeling your body sinking into the pillowy bed of a thousand warm clouds.

You are at peace.
