About this episode
Let go and decompress with soothing guidance for restful sleep and a peaceful mind
0:00
Every night, your brain washes itself clean.
0:06
Last night, in our gentle nightfall meditation, we invited the day to release.
0:17
Tonight, we listen to what remains.
0:22
Find a comfortable position lying down.
0:28
Let your arms rest by your sides.
0:32
Let your feet fall open naturally.
0:37
There is nothing to do.
0:40
Nowhere to go.
0:42
Just for a moment, bring your awareness to your breath.
0:50
Notice the gentle rise of your belly on the inhale.
0:58
And the soft fall on the exhale.
1:02
In.
1:03
And out.
1:04
Your body holds the story of your day.
1:09
Tonight, we will gently listen to that story.
1:16
Without judgment.
1:18
Without needing to change a thing.
1:23
Bring your attention all the way down.
1:28
Down to your feet.
1:31
To the very tips of your toes.
1:35
Can you feel them?
1:38
You might notice warmth, or coolness.
1:43
The light pressure of a blanket.
1:48
Or maybe you feel nothing at all.
1:52
And that's perfectly okay.
1:56
Whatever you notice is right.
2:00
With your next exhale, imagine a wave of softness washing over your feet.
2:11
Releasing them from any holding.
2:15
Now, allow that awareness to travel up into your ankles.
2:23
Your calves.
2:25
And your shins.
2:27
Simply noticing what is here.
2:31
The weight of your legs resting on the surface beneath you.
2:40
If you find any tension, just notice it.
2:45
And with your next exhale, invite it to soften.
2:52
To let go.
2:53
The awareness now flows into your knees.
2:59
And up into your thighs.
3:03
These strong muscles that carried you through your day.
3:10
Thank them.
3:12
And allow them to be heavy.
3:16
To be fully supported.
3:19
Your attention now gathers in your hips.
3:25
Your pelvis.
3:26
And your lower back.
3:29
This is a place where we often carry so much.
3:36
Just notice the sensations here.
3:40
On your next breath out, imagine this entire area becoming soft.
3:49
Releasing its grip.
3:52
Let your belly be soft.
3:55
Allowing the breath to move freely.
4:00
Bring your awareness to your chest.
4:05
To your heart space.
4:08
Feeling the gentle rhythm of your heart.
4:14
And now, the shoulders.
4:17
Notice if they are creeping up toward your ears.
4:24
On your next exhale, invite them to drop.
4:30
To melt down and away.
4:33
This wave of gentle attention now flows down your arms.
4:41
Past your elbows.
4:43
Into your forearms, your hands, and each of your fingers.
4:52
Feel the life in your hands.
4:56
And then let them rest.
4:59
Completely.
5:00
Let your awareness move into your neck and your throat.
5:08
Inviting any tightness here to dissolve.
5:14
Soften your jaw.
5:16
Let your teeth part slightly.
5:20
Allow your tongue to rest in your mouth.
5:26
Soften the muscles around your eyes.
5:31
And the space between your eyebrows.
5:36
Let your forehead be smooth.
5:40
Finally, bring your awareness to the very top of your head.
5:49
A feeling of quiet stillness.
5:53
For a moment, feel your whole body at once.
5:59
From the tips of your toes to the crown of your head.
6:07
Breathing.
6:08
Resting.
6:09
Held.
6:10
There is nothing left to do.
6:14
Only rest.
