<v Speaker 1>Sleep comes even when you don't think it's coming. Sleep

9
00:00:51.399 --> 00:00:59.320
<v Speaker 1>Let your knees soften, Let your calves release, Let your

10
00:00:59.359 --> 00:01:08.359
<v Speaker 1>ankle be still, Let your feet open, Let your toes uncurl.

11
00:01:09.799 --> 00:01:17.200
<v Speaker 1>The toes have been gripping all day, gripping shoes, gripping floors,

12
00:01:18.079 --> 00:01:26.680
<v Speaker 1>gripping uncertainty. Tonight, the toes are free. Feel your whole

13
00:01:26.840 --> 00:01:31.480
<v Speaker 1>body now, Feel it, from the crown of your head

14
00:01:32.400 --> 00:01:38.319
<v Speaker 1>to the soles of your feet. Feel it heavy, Feel

15
00:01:38.319 --> 00:01:45.879
<v Speaker 1>it warm, Feel it held, Feel it steady, Feel it sure.

16
00:01:47.480 --> 00:01:50.680
<v Speaker 1>You do not need to do anything about your heart.

17
00:01:51.760 --> 00:01:56.079
<v Speaker 1>Your heart knows what to do. Your heart has been

18
00:01:56.159 --> 00:02:00.959
<v Speaker 1>beating since before you were born. It will beat long

19
00:02:01.200 --> 00:02:06.640
<v Speaker 1>after this moment has passed. Trust it, Trust it to

20
00:02:06.760 --> 00:02:11.719
<v Speaker 1>keep going while you rest. Let your attention sink to

21
00:02:11.840 --> 00:02:17.080
<v Speaker 1>your belly. Let your belly soften. Let it rise with

22
00:02:17.199 --> 00:02:21.520
<v Speaker 1>thee in breath, let it fall with the out breath.

23
00:02:22.120 --> 00:02:27.879
<v Speaker 2>Now, let your breathing find its own rhythm, a rhythm

24
00:02:27.919 --> 00:02:32.159
<v Speaker 2>that is a little slower than your waking rhythm, a

25
00:02:32.240 --> 00:02:33.840
<v Speaker 2>rhythm that is a little deeper.

26
00:02:35.360 --> 00:02:40.919
<v Speaker 1>Breathe in through your nose. Feel the air as it enters.

27
00:02:42.759 --> 00:02:52.199
<v Speaker 1>Cool the nostrils, Cool in the throat, cool in the chest.

28
00:02:53.560 --> 00:03:03.360
<v Speaker 1>Breathe out through your mouth softly, slowly, let the breath

29
00:03:03.800 --> 00:03:14.680
<v Speaker 1>leave without effort. The night is kind. Sleep Now sleep,

34
00:03:42.759 --> 00:03:47.599
<v Speaker 1>feeling of being in a house that will always be here,

35
00:03:49.599 --> 00:03:55.520
<v Speaker 1>The feeling of being held by the walls, by the floors,

36
00:03:56.599 --> 00:04:02.599
<v Speaker 1>by the windows, by the long quiet of a.

<v Speaker 1>ex trifle, the bust of these in the tease, on

53
00:06:24.600 --> 00:06:34.879
<v Speaker 1>my long quiet of a house at rest. You are

54
00:06:35.240 --> 00:06:43.000
<v Speaker 1>loved by this moment. You are enough, You have always

55
00:06:43.160 --> 00:06:52.639
<v Speaker 1>been enough, You will always be enough. Let these truths settle.

57
00:06:59.079 --> 00:07:05.000
<v Speaker 1>your belly, Let them sink into your bones. Let them

58
00:07:05.079 --> 00:07:09.000
<v Speaker 1>be there when you wake, Let them be there in

59
00:07:09.079 --> 00:07:15.519
<v Speaker 1>the morning. The quiet hums. The quiet has a texture.

60
00:07:16.800 --> 00:07:21.000
<v Speaker 1>The quiet is the texture of centuries of words held

61
00:07:21.040 --> 00:07:25.519
<v Speaker 1>in one place. There is a smell in the library,

62
00:07:26.800 --> 00:07:32.360
<v Speaker 1>the smell of paper, the smell of leather. The smell

63
00:07:32.439 --> 00:07:37.319
<v Speaker 1>of dust that is not unpleasant, the kind of dust

64
00:07:37.480 --> 00:07:43.480
<v Speaker 1>that means age, that means care, that means books have

65
00:07:43.560 --> 00:07:48.560
<v Speaker 1>lived here for a long time. The light in the

66
00:07:48.600 --> 00:07:53.759
<v Speaker 1>library comes from lamps set on long wooden tables. The

67
00:07:53.839 --> 00:07:59.439
<v Speaker 1>path winds gently between beds of plants you cannot quite name.

68
00:08:01.000 --> 00:08:06.879
<v Speaker 1>The plants are not exotic. The plants are the kind

69
00:08:06.920 --> 00:08:14.920
<v Speaker 1>of plants you might find in any quiet garden, leafy, soft,

70
00:08:15.759 --> 00:08:23.480
<v Speaker 1>varieded in their greens. You walk the path slowly. You

71
00:08:23.600 --> 00:08:28.480
<v Speaker 1>do not have to reach any destination. You are walking

72
00:08:28.600 --> 00:08:35.080
<v Speaker 1>because walking feels good. The stones massage the soles of

73
00:08:35.159 --> 00:08:42.519
<v Speaker 1>your feet. The air is warm. The garden is where

74
00:08:42.600 --> 00:08:46.320
<v Speaker 1>you are safe. You put your hand.

75
00:08:46.159 --> 00:08:53.080
<v Speaker 5>On the glass. The glass is cool. The glass is smooth.

76
00:08:54.519 --> 00:08:58.039
<v Speaker 5>Through the glass, you can see the trees

77
00:08:59.639 --> 00:08:59.799
<v Speaker 1>Through
