0:00 Your mind holds a quiet place that no one else can touch.0:08 Last night, we ended our day with a sense of gratitude.0:17 Tonight, Admin, we will use our imagination to build a place of deep rest.0:28 So find a position that feels comfortable for you.0:36 Lying down, or seated.0:39 Allowing your eyes to gently close whenever you feel ready.0:48 Let’s begin with the breath.0:52 No need to change it.0:56 Simply noticing the gentle rise and fall of your chest.1:04 In… and out.1:06 Each breath a quiet rhythm, pulling you away from the day.1:15 Each exhale, a chance to soften.1:20 Softening the muscles in your face.1:25 The space between your eyebrows.1:30 Your jaw.1:31 Allowing your shoulders to feel heavy.1:37 Releasing any tension held there.1:42 Letting it all melt away.1:46 Now, in your mind’s eye, I want you to imagine a path.1:54 This is your path.1:57 It could be a soft, mossy trail through an ancient forest.2:06 Or a warm, sandy track leading toward the sound of the ocean.2:15 Whatever feels safest to you.2:19 Begin to walk along this path.2:24 Feel the ground beneath your feet.2:29 The soft give of the earth.2:33 Notice the air around you.2:37 Is it cool and crisp, smelling of pine and damp soil?2:46 Or is it warm, carrying the scent of salt and sun?2:53 You can hear the gentle sounds of this place.3:00 The quiet rustle of leaves in a soft breeze.3:07 The distant call of a bird.3:11 These are the sounds of perfect peace.3:17 And with every step, you feel the noise of the day growing quieter… and quieter.3:29 Up ahead, you see a clearing.3:33 Or a hidden cove.3:36 A place bathed in soft, gentle light.3:42 This is your haven.3:45 A place of total safety and calm.3:50 As you step into this space, you feel a wave of peace wash over you.4:00 You find a comfortable place to rest.4:06 Perhaps on a bed of soft moss, or on warm, sun-drenched sand.4:15 Look around your haven.4:19 Notice the colors.4:21 The deep greens of the forest, or the soft blues of the water and sky.4:32 Feel the gentle warmth of the light on your skin.4:39 Now, bring to mind anything from the day that still feels heavy.4:49 A conversation.4:52 A worry.4:53 A task left undone.4:56 See it clearly, but from a distance.5:01 And now, gently release it into this space.5:08 You can place it on a leaf and watch it float away down a gentle stream.5:19 Or you can let the thought dissolve like mist in the warm light.5:29 There is nothing to hold onto here.5:34 Nothing to solve.5:37 Simply being.5:39 Resting in the stillness of your quiet place.5:45 Breathing in the peace of this haven.5:51 And breathing out any last trace of the day.5:58 You can stay here as long as you need.6:04 Allowing your body and mind to sink deeper and deeper into rest.6:13 This place is always here for you.6:19 Your quiet haven awaits your return, whenever you need it.
