Settle in as you welcome yourself to sleep.
Sleep is essential to organ function,
Tissue repair,
And emotional and mental well-being.
This invitation to sleep can be played at the end of a long day or if you find yourself awake in the middle of the night.
You may not hear the end of this recording as you drift off to sleep.
There will not be a sign that the meditation is over other than a long period of silence.
Do not worry.
You will receive the benefits of this recording by gliding into a deep sleep,
Feeling refreshed,
Balanced,
And renewed upon waking.
Allow yourself to use this practice regularly and repeat as necessary until sleep finds you.
Allow your body to get comfortable and adjust where needed as you ameliorate your environment.
Make cozy your surroundings as you snuggle up to sleep.
Place your body in preparation to unwind and luxuriate in deep sleep.
Find a little more comfort as you drop in deeper against the surface around you.
Feel held with the support of the surface and release the grip that holds you tightly to the waking world as you gently open to receive the altered consciousness of dream state.
Breathe in and breathe out.
Take a few more slow,
Deep breaths as you expand the breath wide and deep.
Affirm your greatest desire in this moment to surrender to sleep.
Release to engage in activity as you find an inner refuge of peace,
Ease,
And stillness.
Notice now the inside of your mouth.
Allow space between the upper and lower teeth.
Let your tongue drop away from the roof of your mouth,
Softening the upper palate.
Sense the area around your lips and mouth,
Sense your nose as the breath flows in and out.
Allow your eyelids to become still and smooth any tension around your eyes and forehead with ease.
Sense your left ear,
Your right ear.
Notice the inner ear to hear the quiet softening.
Receive your breath to enhance deep relaxation and breathe out.
Sensing your head,
The sides,
The back,
And top as you release gently to the supple surface beneath you.
Become aware of your shoulders.
Observe the changing state of your body as you drop in deeper to the subconscious.
Bring your attention to your arms as your body progressively relaxes into an ever deepening relaxation response.
Sense your hands and fingers.
Sense your arms.
Notice your torso as your body breathes.
Notice your hips.
Sense your legs,
Progressively relaxing into an ever deepening state of ease.
Sense the soles of your feet and the changing state of your body as you drop in.
Become aware of your whole body.
Connect to the natural healing forces of your body as you sleep.
Once your body breathe,
Note the movement of breath as a flow of sensation and energy throughout the paths of your body.
Invite your breath in.
Pave the path to alleviate any barriers that you have to sleep.
Soften your body into these paths created by your breath.
Exhale to find a sense of ease as you drift into sleep.
Allow your breath to become less severe,
Permeating every crack and crevice.
Infuse breath throughout your torso,
Your arms,
Your hands,
Your hips,
Your legs,
And your feet.
Feel the ebb and flow of your breath,
Like a river hugging the banks of awareness,
Fading in and out.
Attune to the quiet restorative need for sleep,
Making absence of effort as you fade into stillness.
Find the sweet relief of sleep.
Temper your thoughts with quiet breath.
Allow sleep to permeate throughout your being as you make quiet your body and mind.
Allay worries and fears as you find an inner refuge of calm,
Serenity,
And quietude.
Evaporate tensions as your breath lightens the load towards weightless slumber.
Exhale softly and smoothly to innervate the wakeful state as every cell in your body welcomes tranquility.
Begin resistance to sleep as you breathe.
Feel the serenity of your breath as you enter.
Effortless flow moving in all directions carried by the current of your breath.
From shallow breathing to find the depths of sweet slumber.
As silence increases,
So does tranquility and harmony as you experience whole body breathing in complete surrender to sleep.
Soothe all of your senses with soft respiration as you breathe softly and smoothly.
Transform the desire to hold on as you ease your body and mind.
Finding a deep dream state and ethereal sphere.
Inhale in and breathe.
Asway the waking world,
Tempering thoughts,
Senses,
And emotions.
As you leave behind messages from the day or the past,
Replacing them with well-being,
Peace,
And wholeness.
Relieve your being with a felt sense of comfort,
Falling into the chasmic state of sleep.
Satisfy your body's natural healing forces that come with deep sleep.
Appease all desires for sleep as you satisfy the necessity for rest.
Quench your thirst for renewal.
Connect beyond time.
Feel spacious and open.
Palliate the waking world with a soft vignette into the dream state.
Welcome spacious softening with effortless breath.
Soothingly persuade sleep within.
Lure in restoration,
Renewal.
As you float effortlessly clear of space and time,
Welcoming the encounter like a close companion.
Come into the presence of sleep with open arms,
Comfort and ease.
And the relief of sleep with the feeling of peace emanating throughout your being.
Soothing sweet relief of slumber.
Flow effortlessly now into the serenity of sleep.
And the relief of sleep with the feeling of peace emanating throughout your being.
