Welcome to tranquil sleep meditation.
My name is Jacqueline,
And I am going to take you on a sleep journey where I will leave you to enjoy a tranquil night's sleep.
So if you are ready,
Settle into your most comfortable sleep position as you snuggle into your bed.
Move your body until you feel really comfy.
Pull the covers around you and enjoy their protection and warmth.
Wiggle a little more just to make sure you are really comfy.
And now,
Gently close your eyes as you take a deep breath in,
Hold at the top and slowly release.
And another deep breath in,
Hold at the top and now slowly release.
As you take nice steady breaths,
Allow your body to relax,
Allow your arms to relax,
Allow your legs to relax.
Feel your head on your pillow as you get a sense of your head relaxing.
The worries of the day leaving your mind,
You feel really comfy in your bed.
You feel nice and relaxed.
Before you drift off into a restful night's sleep,
I'm gonna take you on a little journey,
A journey you will see in your mind's eye,
A journey you will feel in your body.
You're relaxed and you're ready.
It has been raining outside and as you look out of the window,
You see a rainbow.
It is said that no two people see a rainbow exactly the same way.
The rainbow you view in the sky is truly unique to you.
What does seeing a rainbow mean to you?
Does it mean good news or good luck?
Does it bring a hope that something good is coming?
A new beginning?
Does it mean peace or a time to reflect?
Rainbows fascinate you.
They are magical to you.
You often wonder what you might find at the end of one,
A pot of gold or a treasure chest or that thing you've always dreamed of having.
Tonight you are going to set off on a journey to find the end of the rainbow.
But first you take in the beauty of the rainbow before you as you allow its beautiful colours to fill you with peace and joy.
The rainbow's colours are bold and brilliant,
Each one more vibrant than the next.
Now as you journey to the rainbow's end,
You will be bathed with each colour in turn.
The first colour is red.
The red symbolises energy and wisdom,
Enthusiasm and passion and is linked to strong feelings and emotions.
As you step into the red,
You allow the power of this colour to fill you with energy as it gives you the wisdom you need to overcome a problem you have.
Your feelings and emotions become stronger as you feel more determined in your decisions.
You rest in this colour for a moment.
The next colour is orange.
The orange of the rainbow is a warm,
Vibrant colour,
A happy colour to make you feel friendly and comfortable.
You take this colour into your being where it feeds your creativity and enables you to relax and enjoy life.
You rest in the power of this colour for a moment.
The next colour is yellow.
Yellow is the colour of sunshine and represents energy and warmth.
As your body fills with this wonderful colour,
You experience clear thinking,
A conversation you need to have becomes clear in your mind as you receive inspiration to the things needed to be said.
Cheerfulness flows over you as you rest in this colour for a moment.
The next colour is green.
Green is located in the middle of the rainbow.
Green is the colour of life and symbolises wealth,
Growth and renewal.
Thoughts of things you need to remove from your life come to mind as you feel ready to accept new growth,
Better health and increased wealth into your life.
With these in mind,
You rest in this colour for a moment.
The next colour is blue.
Blue represents peace,
Relaxation and stability.
As you bathe in this colour blue,
You feel trust and loyalty coming to you from sources you thought were not there.
You feel a calmness and peace surround you as you rest in this colour for a moment.
Next is indigo.
A mix of purple and blue,
Indigo is the colour of the midnight sky and encourages you to think more deeply about life.
As you absorb this colour,
You feel the need to become more mindful of your own intuition.
You feel the need to do more inner thinking and worry less about what others think of you.
Allow your own wisdom to shine through and guide you through the mysterious journey called life.
As you rest in this colour for a moment,
Become more curious about life's adventure.
And finally,
It is the colour violet.
Violet is the colour of royalty,
Of luxury and of imagination.
The colour violet is asking you to become more creative with your imagination.
As you bathe in this colour,
Your mind is filled with ideas and ways to help you and others.
Let's stay with these thoughts for a moment.
You've arrived at the end of the rainbow,
But there is no pot of gold or treasure chest.
Instead,
You find a feeling,
A feeling of encouragement,
A feeling of accomplishment,
A knowing that anything is possible if you just keep going and believe in your goals and yourself.
You look one last time at the beautiful arch of the rainbow and breathe in the energy of all the colours as they blend together.
You watch the colours begin to fade,
Slowly disappearing from sight,
But their strength,
Beauty and gifts have not faded.
They will stay in your mind for you to reconnect whenever you need to.
Rainbows are magical and full of power.
Even the rainbows we see in our mind's eye take the magic and power of the rainbow.
As you settle down to sleep,
You get comfy in your bed,
You are cosy with your covers.
Sleep is coming.
The magic of the rainbow stays in your mind as you feel more and more tired.
You're ready to sleep.
You're ready to end the day knowing that tomorrow morning you will be refreshed and ready to go.
The power of the rainbow stays with you through your sleep and gives you the energy you need in the morning.
It's time to go to sleep.
It's time to let the world close down.
You are ready to sleep.
You are so peaceful.
You feel so tranquil.
As sleep comes over you.
