 Hey there, and welcome. I'm so glad you've carved out this moment for yourself today. I know mornings can feel overwhelming - especially when sleep has been elusive or fragmented. Today, we're going to explore a gentle practice that can help transform your relationship with rest.

Take a comfortable position, whether you're sitting or lying down. Allow your body to settle, like a leaf slowly drifting to the ground, finding its perfect resting place. Close your eyes if that feels comfortable, and take a deep breath in through your nose, feeling the cool air entering, and a warm exhale releasing any tension.

Today's practice is about creating a bridge between your waking moments and restful sleep. Imagine your breath as a soft, luminous thread - connecting your active mind to a place of deep calm. Breathe naturally, without forcing anything. Notice the subtle rise and fall of your chest, the gentle expansion and contraction.

Begin to scan your body with compassionate awareness. Starting at the crown of your head, slowly move your attention downward. Soften any areas of tightness - around your eyes, your jaw, your shoulders. Imagine each exhale melting away small pockets of tension, like warm sunlight dissolving morning frost.

Now, picture a tranquil landscape - perhaps a quiet lake at dawn, or a soft meadow bathed in gentle mist. As thoughts arise, see them as passing clouds. You don't need to chase them away or hold onto them. Simply acknowledge their presence and let them drift by, returning your attention to your breath.

Your body knows how to rest. Your mind knows how to settle. Trust this innate wisdom. With each breath, you're creating a sanctuary of calm, preparing yourself for deeper, more restorative sleep.

As we complete this practice, carry this sense of gentle awareness with you. Throughout your day, you can return to this breath, this moment of stillness, whenever you need it. Remember, good sleep isn't about perfection - it's about creating compassionate space for yourself.

Thank you for practicing with me today. If you found this helpful, please subscribe to Sleep Soundly, and join me again tomorrow for another mindful moment. Wishing you peace and restful nights.
