About this episode
Unwind and let go as soothing guidance helps you decompress and prepare your mind for restful sleep.
0:00
A single neuron in your brain can connect to ten thousand other neurons.
0:08
In our last time together, we practiced releasing the weight of the day.
0:17
Tonight, we’ll use that incredible, vast network in your mind...
0:25
not just to release, but to build.
0:30
To create a place of your own.
0:33
So find your way into a comfortable position.
0:39
Lying down, supported by your bed.
0:43
Allow your eyes to gently close.
0:47
There is nothing else for you to do right now.
0:53
Nowhere else to be.
0:55
Simply arrive here, in this moment.
1:00
Begin by noticing your breath.
1:03
Not changing it.
1:05
Just noticing.
1:07
The gentle rise of your chest or belly as you breathe in.
1:14
The soft release as you breathe out.
1:19
Each breath is an anchor.
1:22
Bringing you more fully into your body.
1:27
More fully into this quiet space.
1:31
Now, bring your awareness to the feeling of your body.
1:38
Notice the points of contact.
1:41
The weight of your head on the pillow.
1:46
The length of your back against the mattress.
1:52
The heaviness of your arms and legs.
1:56
Feel the support beneath you.
2:00
Holding you completely.
2:03
You can let go.
2:04
You can allow yourself to be held.
2:09
Scan your body for any lingering tension.
2:14
Perhaps in your jaw.
2:16
Allow it to soften.
2:19
Let your tongue rest gently in your mouth.
2:24
Notice your shoulders.
2:27
Let them drop away from your ears.
2:31
Feeling a sense of release spreading down your arms...
2:38
all the way to your fingertips.
2:41
Let your hands be soft.
2:44
Your fingers gently curled.
2:48
Your body knows how to rest.
2:51
You are just giving it permission.
2:55
Now, in the quiet canvas of your mind, we will begin to create a place.
3:04
Your own personal sanctuary.
3:08
This place can be anywhere.
3:11
Real or imagined.
3:13
A sun-drenched beach with gentle waves.
3:18
A quiet cabin in a snowy forest.
3:22
A hidden garden filled with fragrant flowers.
3:28
Or maybe just a single, perfect room, filled with soft light.
3:35
There is no rush.
3:37
Allow the image to form on its own.
3:42
What do you see here?
3:44
Notice the colors.
3:47
The quality of the light.
3:50
Is it the warm glow of late afternoon...
3:55
or the soft, silvery light of the moon?
4:00
What sounds do you hear?
4:03
Perhaps it is the sound of silence itself.
4:08
Or the gentle rustle of leaves.
4:12
The distant call of a bird.
4:15
The quiet crackle of a fire.
4:19
Now, notice the feeling of the air on your skin.
4:24
Is it warm, or cool?
4:27
Is there a gentle breeze?
4:30
What textures are here?
4:33
The feeling of soft moss under your feet.
4:38
The smooth wood of a comfortable chair.
4:43
The warmth of a thick, soft blanket.
4:47
This is your space.
4:50
It is perfectly safe.
4:52
Perfectly peaceful.
4:55
You are the only one here, unless you choose to invite someone in.
5:03
It is a place of absolute comfort.
5:07
Within this sanctuary, find a place to rest.
5:13
A comfortable spot just for you.
5:17
Settle in.
5:18
Feel the deep sense of ease that comes from being in a place made just for you.
5:28
As you rest here, allow any remaining thoughts from the day to simply drift by.
5:38
Like clouds in the sky of your sanctuary.
5:43
You don't need to hold onto them.
5:47
You don't need to push them away.
5:51
Just watch them float on by.
5:54
Leaving behind only stillness.
5:58
Only peace.
6:00
This place is always here for you.
6:04
You can return to it anytime you need.
6:09
In the middle of the day, or just before sleep.
6:14
It is a part of you now.
6:17
Rest here, for as long as you need.
6:22
Rest now, in this peace you have made.
