About this episode
Let soothing guidance help you decompress, relax, and drift peacefully toward restful sleep.
0:00
Find a position that feels comfortable for you.
0:06
Lying down, or seated.
0:09
Whatever allows your body to feel supported without effort.
0:18
In our last time together, we invited a gentle nightfall to help release the day.
0:29
Tonight, we’ll continue that process of letting go, piece by piece.
0:39
Begin by noticing your breath.
0:43
Don't try to change it.
0:47
Just feel the gentle rise and fall of your chest or your belly.
0:56
Each breath in… a soft arrival.
1:00
Each breath out… a quiet letting go.
1:05
Now, bring your awareness to the very top of your head.
1:13
Just notice any sensations here.
1:18
Tingling… warmth… or maybe nothing at all.
1:24
Whatever you find is perfectly fine.
1:29
Allow a feeling of softness to wash over your scalp.
1:36
Let this softness move down to your forehead.
1:43
Feeling the space between your eyebrows.
1:49
Inviting it to widen.
1:52
To smooth out.
1:54
Letting go of any holding here.
1:58
Your eyes can rest gently in their sockets.
2:04
Your jaw can release.
2:07
Perhaps your lips part slightly.
2:12
Bring your awareness now to your neck and your shoulders.
2:20
This is a place where we often carry the weight of the day.
2:28
Simply notice what is here.
2:32
Acknowledge any tension you find, without judgment.
2:40
And with your next exhale, imagine that tension beginning to melt.
2:49
Like ice on a warm day.
2:52
Just softening… dissolving.
2:56
Let this sense of release travel down your arms.
3:03
Through your upper arms… your elbows… your forearms.
3:10
All the way to your hands.
3:14
Feel your hands.
3:16
Are they warm or cool?
3:20
Can you feel the air on your skin?
3:25
Invite your hands and each of your fingers to become heavy and soft.
3:34
Bring your attention back to your torso.
3:40
Feeling your back against the surface beneath you.
3:47
Fully supported.
3:49
Notice the gentle movement of your breath in your chest and belly.
3:59
With each breath out, allow your torso to sink a little deeper into that support.
4:11
Releasing any effort to hold yourself up.
4:16
Now, let your awareness travel down into your hips and your pelvis.
4:26
Another center of holding in the body.
4:31
Just notice.
4:33
And invite softness.
4:36
Feel this release continue down through your legs.
4:43
Your thighs becoming heavy.
4:47
The muscles in your calves softening.
4:52
Your ankles releasing.
4:55
And finally, bring your awareness all the way down to your feet.
5:05
Feel the soles of your feet.
5:09
Your heels.
5:10
Each of your toes.
5:13
Let your feet be soft and at ease.
5:18
They have carried you through the day.
5:23
Their work is now done.
5:26
For a few moments, just rest here.
5:31
Aware of your whole body.
5:35
Breathing.
5:36
A quiet stillness settling in.
5:41
Nothing to do.
5:43
Nowhere to be.
5:45
Just this moment.
5:47
The day is complete.
5:50
You can let it go.
