Sometimes when I’m frozen,
But my thoughts are bursting inside.
So much energy is spent,
Trying to calm their wild ride.
PAUSE…
I beat myself up for not doing,
The tasks that need to get done.
But all my time is spent,
Holding back the desire to run.
PAUSE…
One minute I’m angry,
The next I’m in tears.
The tough love voice yells loud,
Its truth rings loud in my ears.
PAUSE…
I crumble into bed,
Exhausted from the fight.
Feeling a little crazy,
Knowing I’m not quite right.
PAUSE…
It’s here at the lowest,
When the whisper softly sings.
It’ll all be okay, sweet one,
We all struggle with these things.
PAUSE…
Breathe into yourself, she says,
And remember who you are.
These toxic mental demons,
Will drag you way out far.
PAUSE…
But see if you can find,
The space between your breaths.
See if you can feel,
Where stillness comes to rest.
So Let’s Begin…
RELIEF FROM A MENTAL BREAKDOWN SLEEP MEDITATION SCRIPT
I breathe in deep and focus,
On the air that fills me up.
I breathe out fully and notice,
Thoughts empty from this cup.
PAUSE…
Breathe in and let it clear.
Breathe out all the fear.
Breathe in and slow it down.
Breathe out thoughts that buzz around.
LONG PAUSE…
I calm down some,
Enough to see,
The voice inside,
That was whispering.
Is my own soul,
Who deeply knows,
That I am fine,
And I am whole.
PAUSE…
All this noise,
That feels so real,
This mental fighting,
I try to conceal,
Will lose its power,
When I share,
Will evaporate,
Should I dare.
LONG PAUSE…
All we have is now,
So focus on what’s here.
Come into the quiet,
And see if you can hear.
PAUSE…
The whispers of your soul,
Pulling you out of your head.
Feel yourself calm down now,
There’s light up ahead.
Namaste, Beautiful.
