Transcript

Begin by taking this moment to prepare for relaxation by making your body perfectly comfortable,

Releasing and letting go of every muscle and just surrendering your body to the force of gravity and the stability of the earth beneath you.

Become aware to your entire physical existence.

Return your mind home to your body and this present moment.

Scan your awareness around the body,

Starting from the top of the head and slowly working your way down to the tips of the fingers and toes.

Feel your whole body becoming increasingly more calm and stable.

Feel all the muscles of the right leg,

The whole right leg.

Feel all the muscles of the left leg,

The whole left leg.

Now both legs together.

Feel all the muscles in the whole right arm,

Whole left arm,

Both arms together.

The muscles of the abdomen and chest,

The muscles of the buttocks,

Along the spinal column and shoulder blades.

Illuminate the muscles of the shoulders,

Neck,

Face and head.

Feel your whole body and focus on the sustained release of every muscle.

As you turn your awareness to the soothing wave-like motions of the natural breath,

Flowing in and out,

Causing the belly to gently rise and fall,

And for the chest to expand and contract with each and every inhalation and exhalation.

As you continue remaining a witness to the breath,

The motions of the breath naturally become slow and rhythmical.

And now bring your awareness down to the physical location of the root chakra,

Mooladhara,

Beneath the base of the spine.

This is your center of stability and security.

Feel a point of red light at the base of the spine.

This is your center of love and compassion.

See a point of green light within the hub of the heart.

Continue ascending up to the cervical plexus of the throat chakra,

Directly back from the pit of the throat.

This is your center of communication,

Manifestation,

And self-expression.

Feel a point of blue light within the center of the throat.

Ascend up to the inner eye chakra,

Agnya,

Directly back from the brow center.

This is your center of higher knowledge and insight.

Feel a point of purple light within the center of the head.

And finally ascend up to the very top of the head,

The location of the crown chakra,

Sahasrara.

This is your center of spiritual union and the bliss of pure consciousness.

Feel a point of white light at the very tip of the top of the head.

Immerse yourself in the white light of the crown chakra and say to yourself silently,

I will fall asleep quickly and enjoy deep rest throughout the night.

I will fall asleep quickly and enjoy deep rest throughout the night.

I will fall asleep quickly and enjoy deep rest throughout the night.

Feel all the muscles involved in breathing throughout the abdomen and chest.

Breathe in and out,

Sensitizing your awareness to the body.

Feel as though the whole body is breathing in and out,

Expanding and contracting with the natural breath.

Now drop the focus on the breath and turn your awareness to inner space.

Again,

See all the chakras as tiny colorful points of light.

See each chakra as a point of light,

Like precious stones strung across a golden cord in the middle of the spine.

Now bring your awareness back down to the root chakra,

Mooladhara,

And focus on the red color of this point of light at the base of the spine.

Absorb your total awareness in the reddish color of this light at Mooladhara.

And now become aware of the breath and feel that you are breathing in and out through the pelvic floor.

And see that you are purifying the tone of light within Mooladhara with each and every breath.

See the light of Mooladhara transforming from the dull color of brick to a bright and lively ruby red.

See the ruby red light of Mooladhara glowing brightly and pervading all of inner space.

And now ascend your awareness up to the sacral chakra,

Swadhisthana,

And focus on the orangish color of this point of light within the sacrum.

Absorb your total awareness in the orangish color of the light of Swadhisthana.

And now feel that you are breathing in and out through the sacrum.

Ascend your awareness up to the divine eye chakra,

And focus on the soothing purple color of this point of light within the center of the head.

And now feel that you are breathing in and out through the center of the brows.

And see that you are purifying the tone of light within Agnya with every breath from the color of lavender to a radiant violet.

See the all-pervasive violet light of Agnya now pervading all of inner space.

And finally ascend your awareness up to the crown chakra,

Sahasrara,

And focus on the divine white point of light at the very top of the head.

Absorb your total awareness in the pure white light of the crown chakra.

All of inner space is pervaded with the infinite brilliance of white light.

And from within this white light there is only perfection.

Everything is perfect,

Complete,

And whole.

From out of wholeness there arises only wholeness.

The universe is whole and complete,

And you are also whole and complete.

As you continue allowing your awareness to merge into the white light of the crown chakra,

You can experience the perfect bliss of eternal existence within the silence of your mind.

Perfect inner silence and perfect peace.

Perfect inner silence and perfect peace.

Now again become aware of the chakras as individual points of light.

And allow your mind to focus in on any one single chakra of its choice.

Just follow the mind and see which chakra it's attracted to.

Experience that chakra as an orb of light.

And within the center of that orb is an image of you,

Just as you are.

Within the center of every chakra,

See an image of yourself,

Just as you are.

Complete and whole.

Now descend your awareness back to the divine inner eye chakra of Agnya at the brow center.

As you immerse your awareness in the violet light of Agnya,

You can sense the divine beauty and perfection in the universe.

Everything is exactly as it should be.

And as you merge with this violet light,

You can receive higher knowledge and see spiritual truths with deep insight.

Descend now to Vishuddhi,

The throat chakra.

And as you immerse your awareness in the royal blue light of Vishuddhi,

You can feel uninhibited self-expression and the realization of the essential connectivity we all share to each other.

Now descend to the heart chakra Anahat.

And as you immerse yourself in the emerald green light of the heart,

You can feel universal love expanding out in every direction.

There is deep,

Genuine love and compassion for all forms of life and an overarching feeling of oneness which allows you to feel united with all existence.

Descend now to Manipura,

The solar plexus chakra.

And as you immerse your awareness in the brilliant golden light of Manipura,

You can sense the staggering power of the universe and this dynamo of bioenergy burning within the core of the navel which is both fueling and animating your body and mind with the vital power of prana.

Now descend to Swadhisthan,

The sacral plexus chakra.

And as you immerse your awareness in this playful,

Juicy orange light of Swadhisthan,

You can feel the ecstasy of rapture bubbling up from the watery depths within you.

The unparalleled joy of discovering your inner source of pleasure and happiness.

And as you focus on the orange light emanating from within Swadhisthan,

You can directly realize that happiness is a choice and the true limitless source of all pleasure is within you.

Now return your awareness to the root chakra,

Muladhara.

And as you immerse your awareness in the ruby red light of Muladhara,

You can sense the security of feeling at one with nature and the universe.

And you can sense that there is but one energy,

One power,

One sacred moment connecting you to me and all of us together in this sacred now.

Just give yourself this time to feel intimate oneness with all life everywhere.

Infinite and eternal oneness.

Oneness is the only reality.

Oneness is the only reality.

Oneness is the only reality.

Oneness is the only reality.

Now recall your sankalpa.

And whenever you are ready,

You can end this session by rolling over onto your side and gracefully falling asleep.

The practice of yoga nidra is now complete.
