Transcript

Welcome to this meditation.

Prepare yourself for sleep now by nestling into your bed,

By making your body really comfortable,

By checking that you're warm and supported,

By squeezing all of the muscles of your whole body all at once and then releasing and letting go.

Doing that once again so that your body knows the difference between tension and relaxation.

And then as the energies of your mind and body begin to settle,

Take a few very full,

Slow and deep breaths.

Take your time and check that you're breathing down into your belly first,

Breathing into your upper body and exhaling with a long and soft sigh.

Spending a few moments now,

Simply breathing,

Breathing deeply right down into your belly first,

Breathing widely,

Filling up your chest,

Exhaling with a long and soft sigh,

Making any final adjustments that you need to and allowing your body to receive these words.

Dear one,

It's time for you to sleep.

It's time to stop trying to abandon all worldly concerns.

Leave the world behind now,

Falling into a deep trust that all things will take care of themselves.

It's time to let this body rest now,

Allow it to fall into a deep and sweet slumber.

It's time to let every trace of effort fall away for all the trying to become a distant memory.

Your body,

Your mind and your soul long for this sweet surrender to come home,

Coming home to an effortless place of rest.

All it takes is one moment of allowing,

A relinquishing of control just for now.

Let the illusion of control be unmasked,

Trusting that it's safe here,

Where all illusion melts away.

Leave the dream behind.

Let the stories go.

You don't need to figure it all out now.

There's nothing to understand.

Let sleep be a mystery that seduces you,

Falling in,

Allowing,

Feeling this body,

Releasing and letting go,

The softening of the whole left side of body,

A melting,

A surrendering of the bones,

Or the trying melting away.

You don't need to work that hard.

Sleep is right here.

Leave the world alone,

Falling into the truth,

What's real,

Leaving it all behind just for now,

Trusting it will take care of itself.

And now,

And now.

It's time to sleep,

Dear one.

It's time to sleep.

Really helpful for getting to sleep. Incredibly soothing and massively appreciated. Thank you!

Great as always. Amanda is a wonderful guide.

I am confused by one thing. In the list it says this is 50 minutes, but it is less than 20. Not a problem, but puzzling.

Well I fell asleep, so it must have been good. Thanks again Amanda. May all your days be filled with child like wonder.

Such a kind, soothing voice. Slow pace is perfect. Calm music.

Absolutely wonderful track to guide me back to restful sleep during the night.

Love your soothing calming voice. Your deep breathing meditation helps me let go of the day into a deep renewing sleep . I drift off into sleep within minutes so I never consciously hear it to the end. I have also listened to your shorter Deep Sleep meditation which is fantastic too! Thank you beautful soul!

Practically perfect volume balance between, & placement of, sound & voice. This meditation takes you peacefully out of labels & the story lines of the Mind, & into the essence of your being and the Peace of rest. Highly recommend.🪷

Really lovely listening to this, the perfect wind-down before sleep. Thank you 💚

Perfect 🤩 and divine timing ⏱️ thank you 🙏 for this beautiful meditation 🧘 practice

Hi, Amanda. Thanks for another one that helped in the middle of the night!
You’re doing so much good in the world with your soothing voice and well-crafted sessions.
I trust all’s well with you and yours.
Lots of love.

Thank you for a sweet blend is the nidra journey without the rigid formula. Hugs and good night. Cynthia

Thank you for bringing the tingle in my palms to my attention. From that moment, I felt my body relax even more.

😴😴😴 Fell asleep quickly and slept through the night! Thank you 🙏🙏🙏

I love the muscle release. And I love how you say things to us, almost like I’m a kid listening to my Momma. Very soothing. I fell asleep 😴 💤
Update: I discovered that your Yoga Nidra is the one that I hold all others up to!

This was incredibly relaxing, especially in my current stressed state. Thank you so much for this amazing meditation, Amanda 🙏🏻💚

don’t remember the track so it must have worked really well!

Very soothing voice, great reminders that nothing needs to be done or figured out-what I need to remember to stop thinking and sleep.

It worked! I am grateful to have found something that works so fast 🙏

Very nice, you are blessed, I am grateful. Namaste.
Jim

I didn’t hear the whole meditation, because I fell asleep!👏👏👏🙌
