Tonight’s sleep meditation will help you calm your mind so you can rest.
Slow down now,
And come into the night.
PAUSE…
Notice your mind,
Moving,
Swirling,
And wanting to play.
PAUSE…
And see if you can imagine yourself,
Looking upon your mind,
Noticing your thoughts from afar,
And then breathing out a sigh,
As your body softens,
And your mind calms.
So Let’s Begin…
CALM MIND SLEEP MEDITATION SCRIPT
Slow down now,
And find your breath.
Inhale deeply,
Following the air as it fills up your belly,
And hold it for a moment.
And then exhale completely,
Letting all that air go,
And tightening your stomach at the end,
As the very last drops of air are released.
PAUSE…
Relax into a nice, easy rhythm of breathing,
Slowing it down bit by bit with every single breath.
PAUSE…
Let it soothe your body,
And calm your mind.
LONG PAUSE…
Now look upon your mind from afar.
This beautiful part of you,
Who loves to stay active,
Electric,
And bursting with thoughts.
PAUSE…
Notice the colors,
The greens and yellows and pinks,
Painting your mind as they move,
Sparkle,
And create.
PAUSE…
Notice the bubbles of black,
The mini clouds of grey,
Spreading across with worry,
And stress.
PAUSE…
Notice it all there,
Encapsulated in your mind,
This gorgeous, magical entity of color.
LONG PAUSE…
Now breathe out,
Over and over again,
And notice the movement of your mind,
Slow down,
Lighten,
And calm.
LONG PAUSE…
Breathe out,
And notice the colors that were sparkling within,
The colors that were painted inside,
Are lightening,
Dissolving,
And disappearing.
Slowly,
Piece by piece,
Shade by shade,
Drifting away from your mind,
And into the nothingness of the night.
LONG PAUSE…
Look upon your mind from afar,
Your body melted deep into your bed,
Safe within your sheets.
PAUSE…
Listen for it,
The gentle sounds of silence,
Coming from your calm mind.
PAUSE…
Feel it,
The absence of movement,
The space to be.
The space to surrender to sleep.
PAUSE…
Breathe…
And feel the calm,
In your body,
In your mind,
Within your soul.
Sweet Dreams, Beautiful.
