So Let’s Begin…
MAGICAL CREATURES OF THE NIGHT SLEEP MEDITATION SCRIPT
Take a slow, deep breath,
and come into your center.
Allow your body and mind
to just let go.
LONG PAUSE
If a distracting thought
finds its way
into your consciousness,
imagine a gentle breeze
carrying it away.
LONG PAUSE
Keep breathing,
and relaxing.
breathing,
and relaxing.
Let that rhythm
become part of you.
LONG PAUSE
Imagine now,
a beautiful white horse with wings
standing gracefully
by your bedside.
PAUSE
You can feel
the creature’s warm breath
on your face.
PAUSE
Instinctively,
you lift yourself
from your bed,
and climb on the back
of the horse.
His name is Pegasus.
PAUSE
Pegasus glides through a window,
out into the starlit night,
climbing high into the midnight blue clouds.
PAUSE
Together you ascend so high,
you can reach out and touch a star.
The star is tiny and warm like a cookie
fresh from the oven.
And, after a minute,
it wriggles in your hand,
and flies back into the sky.
You know now you’re in a land of magic.
PAUSE
Pegasus descends slowly
to the ground.
And, as he does,
you see dozens of dwarves
tilling the land,
firing and hammering metal
like blacksmiths,
and setting out fresh food
on small picnic tables.
PAUSE
One of the dwarves sees Pegasus
and nudges for another dwarf.
The second dwarf with a red beard
walks over to Pegasus.
Both creatures bow to one another.
PAUSE
The red-bearded dwarf
goes to the table of food
and takes a wrapped loaf of bread
and some dried meat
and bring it to you.
PAUSE
The bread is steaming hot
and smells slightly sweet and savory.
The meat is small like bacon,
but much sweeter to the taste.
PAUSE
Imagine now,
thanking the dwarf,
who simply nods his head at you.
Pegasus and the dwarf
bow again to one another
before you and the winged creature
takes to the sky again.
PAUSE
Moments later,
a man’s head pops
through the clouds.
The giant smiles
as you and Pegasus approach.
PAUSE
Pegasus descends,
but not all the way
to the ground–
just low enough
to see a giant family’s feast.
PAUSE
Two young giant boys
playing with life-size trains,
spy you and Pegasus
and wave.
You naturally wave back.
PAUSE
Your visit is short,
and Pegasus again
lifts to the air.
But only for a moment.
In just seconds,
you both are on the ground
facing another
beautiful white creature:
A unicorn.
PAUSE
The unicorn and Pegasus whinny,
clearly understanding one another.
The unicorn rises up on its hind legs
and then comes close to you.
PAUSE
You reach out and touch
the creature’s horn and mane and back.
They are silky smooth,
and as you remove your hand,
tiny, iridescent sparkles fall to the ground.
PAUSE
Moments later,
Pegasus ascends into the clouds,
soaring swiftly back to your bedroom.
In seconds, you’ve landed
next to your bed,
where you climb off,
and sink into your sheets.
Feeling loved by the magical, mystical
Creatures of the night.
NAMASTE, BEAUTIFUL
