If you’d like an easy ad-free experience for all of our podcasts - that’s over 200 episodes each month, then JOIN PREMIUM today at https://WomensMeditationNetwork.com/premium The worries are heavy tonight, my love. Racing around in your mind and pulling you away from this moment.   So lay down in your bed and let them melt away, as you anchor yourself in the present moment and allow your body to rest. So let yourself slither around in your bed until you find the sleeping position you love the most. Take a deep breath in when you find it, And then exhale and settle even deeper into your bed. Be here. With the stillness of the night. And allow its cool, calm silence to isolate those thoughts racing through your mind.  Those worries, Anxieties,  Stresses, Fears.  They are the ones in rigorous motion against the backdrop of the stillness. PAUSE… Thoughts. Stories. Emotions. That’s all they are.  They are not you. What’s true is this moment.   This breath. You. Here on your bed.  Alive. Breathing.   So allow yourself to separate them from you, All these worries. Inviting them to exit the rapid movement inside your head, And enter the stillness of the night.  This moment of presence, Where the worries cannot exist.  Watch them dissolve in the space around you, The tiny grains of sand spilling from them until nothing is left.  Release the worries into the peaceful presence of the night. LONG PAUSE... Feel the deep relaxation of your body as the worries dissolve. It melts into the arms of the night, Releasing its need to control, Or be ready, Or fight. And instead softens, Trusts, And surrenders. Relax and release. PAUSE… It’s time to sleep. So breathe… In and out, And fall into the depths of the night.

You try to hide it, With busyness and smiles, You think that none of it shows.  PAUSE I remember that black spiral, The suffering inside, The painful dark night of the soul. I reach out to hug you, Knowing I can’t save you, I see everything you hold.  PAUSE I have to let you fall, Down, down, down. I have to let you break, And pick yourself up from the ground.  LONG PAUSE Your demons are roaming, Black grains of sand, Wanting to take over your heart. Don’t let them consume you, Just come back inside, Breathe…and remember who you are.  PAUSE I know it feels heavy, You’re dizzy and scared, But there is purpose in the pain. You’ll have to get honest, And feel everything, Unravel the blame and the shame.  PAUSE So let yourself fall, Down, down, down. Let yourself break, Pick yourself up from the ground.  LONG PAUSE In between your breathes, In the spaces between thoughts, Pools of peace await. You have to slow down, To come deep inside, Surrender to the water’s weight.  PAUSE You’ll question, you’ll cry, You’ll grieve and you’ll wish, This space is safe for it all.  Let it all burn, Then rise from the ashes, A new you will emerge from it all.  PAUSE You know you can fall, Down, down, down. You know you can break,  And fly far from the ground.  Namaste, Beautiful 💗💗💗 Check out all the deals from our incredible sponsors here! --> https://womensmeditationnetwork.com/sponsors 💗💗💗 Check out all of our other podcasts at https://womensmeditationnetwork.com To learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit: https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policy Learn more about your ad choices.

LONG PAUSE Now, allow yourself to notice any stress in your body, any area in need of relaxation. Take a moment, and gently breathe  into those areas. LONG PAUSE Take another deep breath, and feel the lightness  of your body, and the cushiness  of your body in your bed. Keep breathing in deep relaxation.    LONG PAUSE Now, imagine if you can, faintly hearing the first few notes of a symphony. Two gentle violins  serenading you like lilting nightingales.  PAUSE The violins play dreamily, their music quietly floating through your room. PAUSE Now, imagine if you can, feeling lifted by the music, as if it gently floated under you, and raised you into the air.

PAUSE After a few moments, you feel the flute all around you, Sailing in and out through your being, The joy of the flute synchs in you. PAUSE While floating in the air with these beautiful sounds, a new sound calls to you, one with a rich, soft timbre: The French horn. PAUSE The horn adds a buoyancy to your floating– a gentle drifting back and forth, and up and down. Allow its richness to  help you feel secure, and balanced, as it effortlessly blends with the flute and violins. PAUSE         As you delicately waft through the air, the orchestral sounds envelope you, Filling your soul with joy and wonder. PAUSE Now, imagine if you can, that a piano joins the orchestra. The piano flavors the  already-beautiful sounds by adding layers of  sweet harmonics, PAUSE The notes of the piano, play inside and around you, filling you with self-confidence and positivity. PAUSE Take a deep breath, and let yourself synergize with the orchestra. Allow it to become you, and you it. PAUSE And, as you feel that fluid music all through you, a sense of gratitude for this  orchestral odyssey, comes over you. For each instrument brings a gift. PAUSE   Breathe in the violin. Its magic gift to you  is its dreaminess. Breathe in the flute. Its magic gift to you is its joyfulness. Breathe in the French horn. Its magic gift to you is its balance. Breathe in the piano. Its magic gift to you is its positivity. PAUSE After a few moments, the instruments softly fade into the background, and you are placed gently  back in your bed. As you lie there, drifting peacefully to sleep, you know you are an orchestra of life. An orchestra that plays beautifully, every day and night.

PAUSE Time is an illusion to the universe, and you glide from  one heavenly body to another, becoming more free of pain, hurt and anxiety. PAUSE Now, take a minute and  bask in the joy and healing that  the heavens have poured into you, deep into the physical and spiritual core. PAUSE And, take one more deep cleansing breath, a breath that draws in the healing stillness of the Universe, healing that melts in and all around you healing that you gratefully surrender to. PAUSE Now, embrace your surrender,  your openness that leads to gifts, and enjoy the blessing of sleep, the blessing of healing, of your physical, emotional, and spiritual being.

LONG PAUSE And while holding onto  to this precious rest and peace, imagine a magical portal opening before you. PAUSE As you gaze at the portal, you realize it’s beckoning you to come into it, to take a journey. And with absolute comfort and security, you venture forth into the portal. PAUSE While in the portal, beautiful colored lights illuminate all around you. Reds and Pinks, Greens and Yellows, Blues and Purples, all twinkle like stars on each side of you. PAUSE After a few moments, the lights clear, and you find yourself  in an art room with crayons  and pictures to color. PAUSE Without a thought, you pick up a crayon and begin coloring  an image of a mandala. With each gentle stroke, a wave of peace and relaxation washes over you. And with it comes a sense of connectedness to something bigger. PAUSE After a few moments, the mandala rises into the air and begins spinning. All the magical colors spill into the air, spreading deeper peace and relaxation everywhere. Seconds later, you find yourself  back in the portal. PAUSE The beautiful lights sparkle again, and then fade as you find yourself in a room lit with candles. PAUSE You land gently in a chair, and begin gazing  into the soft, gauzy flicker of a large white candle. With each breath, a calm and connectedness to Spirit come over you.

PAUSE Slowly, the lights of the portal return, and you feel yourself gently being moved to somewhere else. PAUSE Moments later, you’re standing on a beach at midnight, with a stunning blue moon hanging low in the sky, and waves that wash against the shore, in a hypnotic rhythm. Millions of stars twinkle above you. PAUSE And now, you feel yourself a part of everything. You feel the sea in you, and you in the sea. You feel the moonlight in you, and you in the moonlight. You feel the stars in you, and you in the stars. Everything is a part of you. You are part of everything. It’s a multi-dimensional feeling of peace and wonder. PAUSE The twinkling lights of the portal return, and this time, the portal takes you home  to your bed, with a steaming cup of tea and a fluffy pillow behind you. PAUSE As you sit sipping tea, you look around, and nothing is the same. Nothing is separate from you. It is all connected energy. And, as you finish your tea, and sink deep into your bed, there is only peace in and around you. A calm, relaxing peace that you carry everywhere.
