Episode Transcript
Welcome dear friend. Let's begin to settle
comfortably in your bed, allowing your body to be fully
supported and relaxed. Take 3 slow breaths, feeling
(00:29):
yourself sink deeper with each exhale.
(01:02):
Imagine a soft blue night sky appearing above you, filled with
twinkling stars and gentle moonlight.
(01:54):
Feel a wave of deep relaxation flowing from the crown of your
head, slowly moving downward, melting any tension in your
face, neck and shoulders. With each breath, this soothing
(03:01):
wave continues down through yourbody, releasing tightness in
your chest, back, arms and hands.
(04:02):
As your breath becomes slower and deeper, silently known, my
body is relaxing, my mind is quieting, and I am safe to drift
and to sleep. Let this calming wave continue
(05:19):
down through your leg to your feet, taking all remaining
tension with it. Your body grows heavier and more
(06:15):
comfortable with each breath, naturally preparing for rest.
(07:00):
Feel yourself supported completely, drifting in peaceful
stillness, like floating on gentle water under the stars.
(07:57):
We'll now enter into a quiet period.
Allow yourself to drift towards sleep, knowing it's perfectly
fine if you fall asleep before our time ends.
(09:53):
Yeah. Yeah.
(10:54):
Yeah. Yeah.
(12:32):
If you're still awake, continue breathing softly.
Know that sleep is approaching on its own perfect timeline.
Rest in deep peace, allowing yourself to drift naturally into
(12:56):
slumber. Goodnight and namaste.
