Close your eyes and breathe.

Breathe in slowly and deeply

Until a gentle rhythm 

Of deep breaths

Occurs naturally.

LONG PAUSE

While breathing, 

Listen to your breath,

To the air entering you,

Full of calm and relaxation.

LONG PAUSE

And listen to the breath

Leaving you,

Taking away stress

And distractions.

Leaving you fully relaxed

And at peace.

PAUSE

Now take a moment

And become aware of your pillow.

Your soft, cushy pillow 

That gently cradles your head.

PAUSE

Feel the pillow caressing your head,

And supporting it,

With loving care,

So you can deeply relax.

PAUSE

Now breathe again.

Breathe deep

And let your body 

Feel the bed beneath you,

And the mattress that knows

The exact amount to give into you,

So it molds around your body.

PAUSE

Breathe into the mattress,

Into your own little cave,

That’s perfectly sculpted,

Around you. 

For you, and you alone.

PAUSE

Now, imagine a blanket,

Soft and fuzzy,

So incredibly cozy

As it enfolds you.

PAUSE

Allow yourself to breathe deeply,

And let the blanket snuggle you,

So you feel secure,

And comfortable.

And protected.

PAUSE

Now, imagine yourself

Gently lifting off your bed,

While wrapped comfortably

In your blanket.

As you take a deep breath,

You gently float out into the night,

Where you feel the warmth of the night,

Sweetly kiss your cheeks.

PAUSE

And, after a moment,

The blanket descends.

And, as it does,

Several tiny bunnies approach

And gently nuzzle you.

Their velvety fur is comforting,

Almost relaxing,

And their calm demeanor

Brings a sense of peace to you.

PAUSE

You take a deep breath,

And the blanket rises above the bunnies

That stand on their hind legs,

As if wishing you well.

And the blanket sails away.

PAUSE

And, as you float away 

With your blanket,

You notice a meadow,

Lighted by fireflies,

So you can see 

All the flowers

And butterflies that awaken

For your arrival.

PAUSE

The blanket skims slowly over the flowers,

So you feel their silky petals

Gently tickling you.

PAUSE

Dozens of sleeping butterflies awaken

And open their wings,

So you feel a gentle breeze

Against your skin.

A pair of butterflies touch your cheeks,

Fanning them with their wings,

To give you a real butterfly kiss.

PAUSE

The blanket continues,

Floating through the meadow,

Toward the very center,

Where you notice a large white flower,

Shimmering in the moonlight.

The flower is big enough for you.

PAUSE

The blanket softly lowers you,

Into the petal arms of the flower.

They feel like silk and velvet

Blending together

To make the most delicious sensation.

PAUSE

And the petal arms of the flower,

Wrap around you,

Creating a luxurious bed,

That warms and snuggles you.

PAUSE

And as you breathe again,

Your mind and body,

Let go,

In this perfect place for you,

So, you can peacefully dream,

The night away.

NAMASTE, BEAUTIFUL
