Speaker 1: Hi, I'm Janie, and welcome back to sleep Magic. I'd
Speaker 1: like to start tonight by thanking you because I have
Speaker 1: felt such a warm, wonderful welcome to the Sleepiest community
Speaker 1: and to this very special corner here at sleep Magic.
Speaker 1: Every comment means so much. You mean so much, and
Speaker 1: I'm so glad we're here together tonight. Perhaps you've hit
Speaker 1: that mental and emotional max for the day. We've all
Speaker 1: been there. It might feel like you've just hit a wall.
Speaker 1: No matter how much you might want to check just
Speaker 1: one more box for the day, your mind is on
Speaker 1: maximum overdrive and your body is saying mm hmm, I
Speaker 1: need rest. If you need the permission to take a
Speaker 1: gentle break, I'm glad to offer that to you right now,
Speaker 1: because I found that sometimes we need a gentle nudge
Speaker 1: from someone to fully let go. Unfortunately, you've found your
Speaker 1: way into a quiet, calming space where you can just
Speaker 1: let go. I'm going to just write you a little
Speaker 1: permission slip and pass it right on over to you now,
Speaker 1: a reminder that you can set everything down. Then it's
Speaker 1: your time to rest. And that's tonight. We're going to
Speaker 1: explore what it feels like to surrender and allow those
Speaker 1: busy looping thoughts definely quiet.
Speaker 2: Now.
Speaker 1: Sometimes the mind holds on tightly. It's trying to process
Speaker 1: everything all at once. Maybe it's replaying conversations, or anticipating outcomes,
Speaker 1: or searching for deeper understanding. We all know what that
Speaker 1: feels like, and while that part of you is trying
Speaker 1: to help, it can leave you feeling restless and unable
Speaker 1: to settle when you need it most. But tonight, you
Speaker 1: don't need to think another thought. You don't need to
Speaker 1: solve anything anything. Instead, will gently practice something different, a
Speaker 1: soft surrender. Now, just the thought of surrendering can send
Speaker 1: such a wave of peace through our bodies and minds.
Speaker 2: Did you feel that.
Speaker 1: To surrender is like opening your arms and falling into
Speaker 1: an infinite space of comfort. Now I'll guide you to
Speaker 1: let your thoughts pass without following them. It's a life
Speaker 1: changing practice to learn that not every thought needs.
Speaker 2: To be followed.
Speaker 1: I'll help you to allow space and quiet without the
Speaker 1: need to fill it with noise or action. This is
Speaker 1: what surrender looks like. And the amazing thing is that
Speaker 1: your mind knows how to unwine when given permission, and
Speaker 1: you have full permission right now. Before we begin, our

Speaker 3: toward effortless sleep. It's time to drive, draw, and let go.
Speaker 3: Allow your body to find a place where it naturally
Speaker 3: wishes to be right now, perhaps making tiny adjustments shoulder
Speaker 3: relaxing downward, the jaw loostening, the muscles around your eyes
Speaker 3: becoming soft and relaxed. And as you listen to the
Speaker 3: sound of my.
Speaker 1: Voice, there is absolutely nothing else required of you. Even
Speaker 1: listening itself can become effortless. My words can simply drift
Speaker 1: around you, like soft clouds moving across by evening sky,
Speaker 1: because your deeper mind already knows exactly what to keep
Speaker 1: and exactly what to release. You were designed to rest,
Speaker 1: designed to soften and let go. You can simply receive
Speaker 1: the permission to let go now, to settle in and surrender. Surrender,
Speaker 1: And every time you hear the word surrender, a warm
Speaker 1: river of relaxation will flow gently from head to toe.

Speaker 1: that breath to gently exhale out. You're beginning to notice
Speaker 1: that the breath is extending even more comfort through you.
Speaker 1: It may be a subtle sensation, as though your entire
Speaker 1: system is sighing with really, as if a part of
