Drifting Into Deep Rest

This session is designed to guide you into natural, restorative sleep. You're already lying down in your comfortable position, which is perfect. Allow your hands to rest naturally at your sides or on your stomach, wherever they feel most at ease. There's nothing you need to do except let my voice accompany you as you drift off. You may fall asleep at any point during this session, and that's exactly what's meant to happen. The suggestions will continue working for you throughout the night, helping you stay asleep and rest deeply. There's no need to wake up at the end of this recording. Simply let it play and allow yourself to float into peaceful, uninterrupted sleep.

Feel the weight of your body against the surface supporting you. [8 second pause] Notice the temperature of the air on your skin. [10 second pause] The sheets against your body. [8 second pause] The pillow cradling your head. [10 second pause] You can feel exactly where your body touches the mattress beneath you. [8 second pause] And you can notice the places where there's no contact at all. [10 second pause] The darkness behind your closed eyelids. [8 second pause] So soft and velvety. [10 second pause] Your breath moving in and out. [8 second pause] You don't need to change it. [10 second pause] Just notice it happening. [12 second pause] The natural rhythm of your body. [10 second pause] Breathing itself. [12 second pause] And as you lie here, you might become aware of subtle sensations. [10 second pause] The weight of your arms. [8 second pause] The weight of your legs. [10 second pause] So heavy and comfortable. [12 second pause] The mattress supporting every part of you. [10 second pause] Holding you completely. [12 second pause] You don't have to hold yourself up anymore. [10 second pause] The bed is doing all the work. [12 second pause] You can let go. [15 second pause]

Imagine yourself in a place where sleep comes easily. [10 second pause] Perhaps a cozy cabin in the woods. [12 second pause] Where the only sounds are gentle rain on the roof. [15 second pause] Soft and steady. [12 second pause] You can almost hear it. [15 second pause] Patterning against the window. [12 second pause] A rhythm that's been happening since the beginning of time. [15 second pause] The world outside is dark and peaceful. [12 second pause] And inside, you're warm and safe. [15 second pause] Wrapped in soft blankets. [12 second pause] The fire crackling gently in the hearth. [15 second pause] Sending warm amber light across the room. [12 second pause] You can feel the warmth on your skin. [15 second pause] And the coolness of the night air on your face. [12 second pause] Such a perfect balance. [15 second pause] The rain continues to fall. [12 second pause] Washing away the day. [15 second pause] All the thoughts. [10 second pause] All the activities. [12 second pause] All the doing. [15 second pause] Being washed away by the gentle rain. [20 second pause]

And now I'm going to count down from ten to one. [8 second pause] With each number, you'll sink twice as deep into relaxation. [10 second pause] Twice as close to peaceful sleep. [12 second pause] Ten. [15 second pause] Sinking down into the mattress. [12 second pause] Deeper and deeper. [15 second pause] Nine. [15 second pause] Letting go of the day completely. [12 second pause] It's over now. [15 second pause] Eight. [15 second pause] Your body knows how to sleep. [12 second pause] It's been doing it your whole life. [15 second pause] Seven. [15 second pause] Trusting your body's wisdom. [12 second pause] Six. [15 second pause] Floating down. [12 second pause] Like a leaf on a gentle stream. [20 second pause] Five. [15 second pause] So heavy now. [12 second pause] So deeply relaxed. [20 second pause] Four. [15 second pause] The boundaries of your body becoming soft. [12 second pause] Merging with the bed. [20 second pause] Three. [15 second pause] Sleep is coming to greet you. [12 second pause] Welcome it. [20 second pause] Two. [15 second pause] Almost there. [12 second pause] Drifting and floating. [20 second pause] One. [20 second pause] So deep. [15 second pause] So peaceful. [25 second pause]

And as you continue to drift deeper and deeper. [15 second pause] Your unconscious mind knows exactly what to do tonight. [15 second pause] It knows how to take you into deep, restorative sleep. [20 second pause] And how to keep you there. [15 second pause] All through the night. [20 second pause] Your body has its own wisdom. [15 second pause] Its own rhythm. [15 second pause] And tonight, that rhythm returns to its natural state. [20 second pause] Uninterrupted sleep. [15 second pause] Peaceful sleep. [20 second pause] Your mind settling like snow falling on a still lake. [20 second pause] Each thought gently landing and dissolving. [20 second pause] Nothing to figure out. [15 second pause] Nothing to solve. [15 second pause] Nothing to remember. [20 second pause] Just rest. [25 second pause] Deep, healing rest. [20 second pause] And if you happen to briefly wake during the night. [15 second pause] You'll find it so easy to drift back to sleep. [20 second pause] Like returning to a familiar, comfortable place. [20 second pause] Your body knows the way. [20 second pause] Trust it. [25 second pause]

Imagine tomorrow morning. [15 second pause] Waking naturally. [15 second pause] In your own time. [20 second pause] Feeling refreshed and restored. [15 second pause] The light filtering in softly. [20 second pause] Your body feeling good. [15 second pause] Rested and ready. [20 second pause] Knowing that you slept deeply all through the night. [20 second pause] And that this can happen every night now. [20 second pause] Your body remembering how to sleep. [15 second pause] How to stay asleep. [20 second pause] How to wake feeling renewed. [25 second pause] But that's tomorrow. [15 second pause] And tonight is for sleeping. [20 second pause] Right now. [15 second pause] Deep sleep. [25 second pause]

Drifting deeper now. [20 second pause] So incredibly relaxed. [25 second pause] The sleep state welcoming you. [20 second pause] Folding around you like a soft, warm blanket. [30 second pause] There's nothing left to do. [20 second pause] Nowhere else to be. [25 second pause] Just this moment of drifting. [30 second pause] Floating. [25 second pause] Sinking. [30 second pause] Deeper and deeper. [30 second pause] Into peaceful, healing sleep. [35 second pause] And deeper still. [40 second pause]

Sleep now. [30 second pause] Deep, restful sleep. [40 second pause] All through the night. [45 second pause] Your body healing. [40 second pause] Your mind resting. [45 second pause] Peaceful. [50 second pause] So peaceful. [60 second pause] Drifting. [60 second pause] Floating. [60 second pause] Sleep. [90 second pause]
