00:00:01.439 --> 00:00:06.480
<v Speaker 1>Hello and welcome to Michele Sanctuary. You are listening to

2
00:00:07.400 --> 00:00:14.519
<v Speaker 1>Starry Starry Night, a guided meditation and sleep hypnosis to

3
00:00:14.720 --> 00:00:22.320
<v Speaker 1>ease anxiety and stress. This recording may be best enjoyed

4
00:00:23.120 --> 00:00:27.320
<v Speaker 1>when you have a time you can be alone, safely

5
00:00:27.480 --> 00:00:33.679
<v Speaker 1>rest and before you go to sleep. For the best experience,

6
00:00:34.560 --> 00:00:40.159
<v Speaker 1>you may listen with headphones. This journey is in your hands.

7
00:00:41.280 --> 00:00:46.520
<v Speaker 1>As you open up your imagination and feel the most

8
00:00:46.520 --> 00:00:53.640
<v Speaker 1>intuitive parts of your mind open up and expand. And

9
00:00:53.759 --> 00:00:58.280
<v Speaker 1>as this is happening, you may even feel as though

10
00:00:58.320 --> 00:01:05.280
<v Speaker 1>a switch has turned on a light inside, setting aglow

11
00:01:05.519 --> 00:01:11.760
<v Speaker 1>memories and thoughts and ideas that are most in line

12
00:01:12.599 --> 00:01:20.359
<v Speaker 1>with your best self. I am merely a guide, and

13
00:01:20.439 --> 00:01:23.799
<v Speaker 1>you may think of my voice as the voice of

14
00:01:23.840 --> 00:01:31.239
<v Speaker 1>an old friend and a voice that represents your intentions

15
00:01:32.359 --> 00:01:38.840
<v Speaker 1>for living your happiest, most fulfilling, and best life. And

16
00:01:38.959 --> 00:01:43.319
<v Speaker 1>as you lie down in a comfortable place, you may

17
00:01:43.359 --> 00:01:50.040
<v Speaker 1>feel your body getting heavy. You may just ease and

18
00:01:50.239 --> 00:01:56.079
<v Speaker 1>shift around and shake off any last impressions of your day,

19
00:01:58.239 --> 00:02:04.000
<v Speaker 1>setting aside any of the thoughts and remnants you have

20
00:02:04.480 --> 00:02:11.280
<v Speaker 1>floating in your mind concerning to day and about tomorrow.

21
00:02:11.840 --> 00:02:17.599
<v Speaker 1>As you focus on right now and when you hear

22
00:02:17.840 --> 00:02:24.159
<v Speaker 1>the words right now, you find your return to your breath,

23
00:02:24.240 --> 00:02:33.319
<v Speaker 1>each time connecting with the present moment, tuning into yourself

24
00:02:35.280 --> 00:02:41.439
<v Speaker 1>as this is your time alone for you and your

25
00:02:41.479 --> 00:02:49.039
<v Speaker 1>own thoughts and your own opportunity for self renewal and healing.

26
00:02:50.280 --> 00:02:58.199
<v Speaker 1>As you fall asleep, bedtime is a sacred time. We're

27
00:02:58.240 --> 00:03:03.039
<v Speaker 1>all the working organs and systems of your body are

28
00:03:03.120 --> 00:03:11.000
<v Speaker 1>able to rest and recover and restore. Taking this time

29
00:03:11.360 --> 00:03:18.280
<v Speaker 1>to honor your body forgetting you through this life, performing

30
00:03:18.479 --> 00:03:26.000
<v Speaker 1>functions as they should without any thought or conscious direction

31
00:03:26.199 --> 00:03:32.719
<v Speaker 1>from you. As you turn to your breath, the one

32
00:03:32.840 --> 00:03:41.960
<v Speaker 1>thing that may be controlled consciously or without thought, this

33
00:03:42.240 --> 00:03:50.680
<v Speaker 1>vital task that keeps you alive and well. And you

34
00:03:50.759 --> 00:03:57.960
<v Speaker 1>may now take conscious control of your breath, emptying out

35
00:03:58.000 --> 00:04:04.159
<v Speaker 1>all your air until the deepest part of your belly collapses.

36
00:04:05.960 --> 00:04:14.919
<v Speaker 1>And you may now inhale for one two three, nxhal

37
00:04:15.240 --> 00:04:24.600
<v Speaker 1>for three two one, and again inhale for one two

38
00:04:25.639 --> 00:04:34.759
<v Speaker 1>three hen exhale for three two one, and on this

39
00:04:35.000 --> 00:04:39.800
<v Speaker 1>next breath you may exhale for double the amount of

40
00:04:39.879 --> 00:04:45.199
<v Speaker 1>time you took to inhale, emptying out all your air.

41
00:04:46.720 --> 00:04:56.040
<v Speaker 1>As you inhale for one two three n exhale for

42
00:04:56.399 --> 00:05:08.879
<v Speaker 1>six five four three two one lovely, And now that

43
00:05:08.959 --> 00:05:14.079
<v Speaker 1>you have expanded your lungs, letting go of any tension

44
00:05:14.199 --> 00:05:18.319
<v Speaker 1>you may have been holding there, you are well equipped

45
00:05:18.319 --> 00:05:24.959
<v Speaker 1>to begin this journey. On this tranquil, starry night, you

46
00:05:25.000 --> 00:05:29.920
<v Speaker 1>may visualize that you are finishing a climb atop a

47
00:05:30.000 --> 00:05:37.319
<v Speaker 1>mountain in a remote town. Wherever that town or location is,

48
00:05:38.600 --> 00:05:43.959
<v Speaker 1>you may choose. Perhaps you have climbed this peak many

49
00:05:44.079 --> 00:05:50.519
<v Speaker 1>times before, or perhaps this is your first time approaching

50
00:05:50.560 --> 00:05:58.759
<v Speaker 1>the summit and coming with a newness and excitement. And

51
00:05:58.839 --> 00:06:05.199
<v Speaker 1>in your body you feel the tired accomplishment of having

52
00:06:05.279 --> 00:06:14.319
<v Speaker 1>ascended so high, every muscle feeling satisfied yet heavy, as

53
00:06:14.399 --> 00:06:18.199
<v Speaker 1>you are ready to meet your goal and camp for

54
00:06:18.279 --> 00:06:24.519
<v Speaker 1>the night. The sky above is a deep shade of

55
00:06:24.720 --> 00:06:31.800
<v Speaker 1>blue black, and the air is cool and fresh, and

56
00:06:31.959 --> 00:06:41.319
<v Speaker 1>you inhale and exhale, and you are adorned in your

57
00:06:41.360 --> 00:06:47.720
<v Speaker 1>most comfortable and warm clothing that allows you to enjoy

58
00:06:48.920 --> 00:06:56.160
<v Speaker 1>the briskness and the fragrant night air. And your path

59
00:06:56.279 --> 00:07:03.439
<v Speaker 1>is lit by the abundance of stars above, glittering across

60
00:07:03.480 --> 00:07:09.920
<v Speaker 1>the sky with a brilliant glow, and the moon above

61
00:07:10.319 --> 00:07:15.839
<v Speaker 1>shines as well, and you feel at peace with yourself

62
00:07:17.439 --> 00:07:24.600
<v Speaker 1>and all that is around. In the distance, you hear

63
00:07:24.680 --> 00:07:30.439
<v Speaker 1>an owl hoot, a nocturnal call. You watch your feet

64
00:07:31.720 --> 00:07:37.920
<v Speaker 1>stepping on twigs and pine needles crunching below your feet

65
00:07:39.160 --> 00:07:47.519
<v Speaker 1>that leave tracks into the earth, feeling so connected to

66
00:07:47.639 --> 00:07:54.600
<v Speaker 1>the mountain and nature around you, the cool night air

67
00:07:56.040 --> 00:08:02.279
<v Speaker 1>meeting your face and tingling all over as a gentle

68
00:08:02.480 --> 00:08:09.439
<v Speaker 1>breeze comes through. Counting the last steps that are bringing

69
00:08:09.480 --> 00:08:28.519
<v Speaker 1>you to your destination one, two, three, four, five, six seven,

70
00:08:30.399 --> 00:08:35.440
<v Speaker 1>and you see a low ahead, creating shadows on the

71
00:08:35.480 --> 00:08:42.799
<v Speaker 1>path you follow. You walk towards the light and find

72
00:08:43.000 --> 00:08:47.919
<v Speaker 1>that a camp is waiting for you. A fire is

73
00:08:48.080 --> 00:08:56.200
<v Speaker 1>burning brightly, and the intoxicating fragrance of this primal experience

74
00:08:57.720 --> 00:09:02.240
<v Speaker 1>brings you back to thoughts of sun spent by a

75
00:09:02.279 --> 00:09:09.080
<v Speaker 1>campfire with those you love, and you feel so safe

76
00:09:09.399 --> 00:09:15.279
<v Speaker 1>and cared for, tended to as you look out around

77
00:09:15.480 --> 00:09:21.360
<v Speaker 1>from the sight. You are on the highest mountain in

78
00:09:21.399 --> 00:09:27.120
<v Speaker 1>the area, so even after nightfall, you can see the

79
00:09:27.200 --> 00:09:32.720
<v Speaker 1>silhouettes of mountains around you, and in a distant valley

80
00:09:33.000 --> 00:09:38.440
<v Speaker 1>is a city where gradually you watch as the lights

81
00:09:38.519 --> 00:09:42.799
<v Speaker 1>begin to go off and the city goes to sleep.

82
00:09:45.200 --> 00:09:49.000
<v Speaker 1>And near the city. In the valley, you see a

83
00:09:49.039 --> 00:09:55.279
<v Speaker 1>few random lights from cars on distant hills, looking as

84
00:09:55.320 --> 00:10:02.039
<v Speaker 1>if they are fireflies strown about the curves that they climb.

85
00:10:03.919 --> 00:10:09.440
<v Speaker 1>You in Ahale one last time, as you approach a

86
00:10:09.639 --> 00:10:14.120
<v Speaker 1>large plush pillow that is as big as a bed

87
00:10:15.480 --> 00:10:20.360
<v Speaker 1>and is waiting for you by the fire. You sit

88
00:10:20.519 --> 00:10:26.200
<v Speaker 1>down on this bed and notice a note is placed

89
00:10:26.360 --> 00:10:35.000
<v Speaker 1>on the pillow that reads sweet Dreams, and next to

90
00:10:35.080 --> 00:10:42.120
<v Speaker 1>the pillow is a thermos containing your favorite nighttime beverage

91
00:10:42.399 --> 00:10:48.639
<v Speaker 1>that helps you unwind, perhaps it is tea or hot

92
00:10:48.720 --> 00:10:55.240
<v Speaker 1>cider or hot cocoa. When you take a sip, using

93
00:10:55.360 --> 00:11:01.759
<v Speaker 1>yourself into this bed, looking at the nights sky and

94
00:11:01.960 --> 00:11:08.200
<v Speaker 1>trees that surround you, feeling very much at ease and

95
00:11:08.399 --> 00:11:17.000
<v Speaker 1>very content, noticing how something so simple, yet so thoughtful

96
00:11:18.519 --> 00:11:24.960
<v Speaker 1>can make you feel so good and appreciated. Recognizing your

97
00:11:25.000 --> 00:11:31.559
<v Speaker 1>own worth and how much you deserve this can, you

98
00:11:31.639 --> 00:11:36.679
<v Speaker 1>allow yourself to fall into this bed for the night,

99
00:11:37.519 --> 00:11:44.519
<v Speaker 1>sinking in as a plush pillow forms perfectly around your body,

100
00:11:45.759 --> 00:11:52.159
<v Speaker 1>supporting your joints and your neck and your head, and

101
00:11:52.240 --> 00:11:57.240
<v Speaker 1>even aligning with the curve of your back. You pull

102
00:11:57.440 --> 00:12:04.720
<v Speaker 1>a soft, fluffy blanket over your body as you look

103
00:12:04.799 --> 00:12:10.919
<v Speaker 1>up at the sky above the ceaseless stars that twinkle

104
00:12:11.120 --> 00:12:18.840
<v Speaker 1>around you, letting your eyes go bleary. Focusing in and

105
00:12:18.919 --> 00:12:25.919
<v Speaker 1>out on these stars like a natural cinema, you begin

106
00:12:26.039 --> 00:12:32.720
<v Speaker 1>to see images and connect the stars, and they lend

107
00:12:32.759 --> 00:12:38.840
<v Speaker 1>themselves to be whatever wish you see and would like

108
00:12:38.960 --> 00:12:47.799
<v Speaker 1>to see in the future. Focusing on this wish before

109
00:12:47.960 --> 00:12:55.000
<v Speaker 1>you fall asleep, and every star is like a possibility

110
00:12:55.240 --> 00:13:02.840
<v Speaker 1>for you and your life, And on this night, it

111
00:13:02.960 --> 00:13:09.559
<v Speaker 1>feels and appears that the stars and the possibilities are endless.

112
00:13:11.200 --> 00:13:24.080
<v Speaker 1>Continuing to relax and inhale and exhale, at first you

113
00:13:24.240 --> 00:13:29.440
<v Speaker 1>see a beautiful memory play out across the night sky,

114
00:13:32.000 --> 00:13:38.080
<v Speaker 1>the memory you have held dear for so long, a

115
00:13:38.200 --> 00:13:44.120
<v Speaker 1>memory that makes you feel most alive and happy, and

116
00:13:44.200 --> 00:13:51.879
<v Speaker 1>even more importantly, memory that serves to make you experience synchronicity.

117
00:13:54.360 --> 00:13:59.879
<v Speaker 1>This memory makes you feel that you have a very

118
00:14:00.159 --> 00:14:05.600
<v Speaker 1>special purpose in this life, and to fulfill this purpose,

119
00:14:06.759 --> 00:14:12.919
<v Speaker 1>the people and tools and experiences that you needed all

120
00:14:13.000 --> 00:14:20.120
<v Speaker 1>came together to support you in this life. Can you

121
00:14:20.240 --> 00:14:27.240
<v Speaker 1>feel the impact of this beautiful memory learning you back

122
00:14:29.159 --> 00:14:35.399
<v Speaker 1>to a memory you can only imagine your own creation,

123
00:14:37.000 --> 00:14:42.759
<v Speaker 1>defying all odds and challenges in nature to form you

124
00:14:44.320 --> 00:14:52.399
<v Speaker 1>this memory before birth, safe in a womb, growing and

125
00:14:52.600 --> 00:14:58.200
<v Speaker 1>just having a universal trust, a trust in the process

126
00:15:00.240 --> 00:15:04.720
<v Speaker 1>to begin the journey of forming the person you are

127
00:15:04.759 --> 00:15:16.440
<v Speaker 1>to day, Relaxing further, feeling so strong and resilient from

128
00:15:16.519 --> 00:15:23.440
<v Speaker 1>all the mountains and challenges you have climbed and overcome

129
00:15:23.879 --> 00:15:32.919
<v Speaker 1>so far, connecting to the wisdom within that all will

130
00:15:32.960 --> 00:15:39.960
<v Speaker 1>be all right, That you are well, and write where

131
00:15:40.080 --> 00:15:49.200
<v Speaker 1>you be long right now, looking to the sky of

132
00:15:49.440 --> 00:15:59.720
<v Speaker 1>twinkling stars once again, just like a canvas, connecting them

133
00:16:00.360 --> 00:16:05.240
<v Speaker 1>as you create an image of something you have longed

134
00:16:05.279 --> 00:16:15.799
<v Speaker 1>for and wanted for yourself, all these twinkling possibilities coming

135
00:16:15.919 --> 00:16:22.399
<v Speaker 1>together to form the realization of a dream you have

136
00:16:22.679 --> 00:16:31.799
<v Speaker 1>held dear watching as it plays out on the night sky,

137
00:16:34.480 --> 00:16:42.919
<v Speaker 1>and you see yourself in the future, laughing, feeling content

138
00:16:44.399 --> 00:16:54.399
<v Speaker 1>and accomplished, feeling alive and well as your dream comes true,

139
00:16:55.080 --> 00:17:02.720
<v Speaker 1>knowing the connecting to the stream stream of possibilities flowing

140
00:17:02.919 --> 00:17:10.519
<v Speaker 1>towards you. This stream of positive energy and hope is

141
00:17:10.599 --> 00:17:14.480
<v Speaker 1>like adding fuel to a car that is on a journey,

142
00:17:16.640 --> 00:17:20.200
<v Speaker 1>as when you get in a car and set out

143
00:17:20.279 --> 00:17:28.519
<v Speaker 1>towards a destination, you know you will arrive eventually, and

144
00:17:28.640 --> 00:17:32.880
<v Speaker 1>maybe you will take a scenic rout or a detour,

145
00:17:34.559 --> 00:17:42.039
<v Speaker 1>or maybe delays or obstacles will present themselves, but you

146
00:17:42.079 --> 00:17:50.599
<v Speaker 1>will continue onward and ultimately arrive. And the same is

147
00:17:50.759 --> 00:17:58.480
<v Speaker 1>true for your life. You are the navigator, and these

148
00:17:58.599 --> 00:18:06.599
<v Speaker 1>visions of your dreams coming true, playing out along the

149
00:18:06.720 --> 00:18:14.839
<v Speaker 1>stars are that fuel that keeps you going, enjoying the

150
00:18:14.920 --> 00:18:21.400
<v Speaker 1>path that you have chosen, owning all that is yours

151
00:18:23.000 --> 00:18:30.440
<v Speaker 1>and the limitless possibilities ahead. And when you look to

152
00:18:30.519 --> 00:18:37.680
<v Speaker 1>the stars from now on, you will find yourself feeling

153
00:18:37.759 --> 00:18:44.960
<v Speaker 1>a deep connection to possibilities and to your life's purpose,

154
00:18:47.799 --> 00:18:56.599
<v Speaker 1>reminding you of the expansive and the infinite universe and

155
00:18:56.680 --> 00:19:02.799
<v Speaker 1>how you are apart of this mass reality. Your eyes

156
00:19:02.880 --> 00:19:09.480
<v Speaker 1>begin to feel so very heavy and tired, allowing them

157
00:19:09.519 --> 00:19:16.000
<v Speaker 1>to close as you breathe in the healing night air,

158
00:19:18.680 --> 00:19:25.359
<v Speaker 1>feeling the space between your muscles and joints, the space

159
00:19:25.640 --> 00:19:34.160
<v Speaker 1>between your vertebra, between your fingers and toes, and in

160
00:19:34.200 --> 00:19:43.200
<v Speaker 1>the space welcoming in a healing and warm light that

161
00:19:43.440 --> 00:19:49.200
<v Speaker 1>makes you feel at home and makes you feel so

162
00:19:49.759 --> 00:19:58.559
<v Speaker 1>very deeply relaxed, and you feel your mind drifting to

163
00:19:58.680 --> 00:20:06.480
<v Speaker 1>this ethereal dream like state feeling as a gentle wind

164
00:20:06.480 --> 00:20:16.440
<v Speaker 1>comes to you and electrifies your skin from head to toe.

165
00:20:16.759 --> 00:20:25.000
<v Speaker 1>Right now, you feel tranquility and peace, closing your eyes

166
00:20:26.079 --> 00:20:31.440
<v Speaker 1>because the heaviness of your lids is winning over any

167
00:20:31.640 --> 00:20:41.799
<v Speaker 1>desire to stay awake. Drifting and drifting, the sounds of

168
00:20:41.880 --> 00:20:49.200
<v Speaker 1>the campfire and running stream, We're bringing you into a

169
00:20:49.319 --> 00:20:58.440
<v Speaker 1>hypnotic state. The sweet healing dreams that await are beckoning

170
00:20:58.599 --> 00:21:05.440
<v Speaker 1>to you, And as you close your eyes, memories of

171
00:21:05.640 --> 00:21:12.720
<v Speaker 1>joy come flooding to you. Failing, a warm, tingling sensation

172
00:21:13.480 --> 00:21:24.480
<v Speaker 1>all over, failing, so heavy, so relaxed, so in tune

173
00:21:24.880 --> 00:21:30.759
<v Speaker 1>with the sacred harmony with nature that is just for you.

174
00:21:33.079 --> 00:21:46.000
<v Speaker 1>Nestled into the pillow, still at peace and full of gratitude,

175
00:21:46.359 --> 00:21:51.160
<v Speaker 1>knowing that any time you may bring yourself to the

176
00:21:51.279 --> 00:22:02.440
<v Speaker 1>state of ease. As you inhale and exhale, and how

177
00:22:02.480 --> 00:22:07.240
<v Speaker 1>good it feels to have something existing just for you,

178
00:22:09.200 --> 00:22:18.759
<v Speaker 1>nurturing and kind and so very much deserved, happy and warm.

179
00:22:19.720 --> 00:22:26.880
<v Speaker 1>The fire continues to burn, and inside you there's a

180
00:22:27.000 --> 00:22:34.400
<v Speaker 1>warm orb warming your torso and all your inner organs.

181
00:22:35.359 --> 00:22:47.200
<v Speaker 1>As you inhale and exhale, serene and grateful, succumbing to

182
00:22:47.319 --> 00:22:53.240
<v Speaker 1>the moment as the tiredness takes over and you may rest,

183
00:22:55.359 --> 00:23:04.720
<v Speaker 1>breathing in and out, you are free to drift, drift

184
00:23:04.839 --> 00:23:12.440
<v Speaker 1>further and further away to a dreamy world, shadows dancing

185
00:23:12.559 --> 00:23:20.559
<v Speaker 1>all around you from the fire that burns brightly, beautiful

186
00:23:20.960 --> 00:23:28.519
<v Speaker 1>and serene, and you are floating deeper and deeper down,

187
00:23:29.960 --> 00:23:40.039
<v Speaker 1>drifting away closer to sleep as you inhale and exhale,

188
00:23:42.559 --> 00:23:49.519
<v Speaker 1>finding surrender. And if anyone were to witness this moment,

189
00:23:51.119 --> 00:23:56.799
<v Speaker 1>for you were to rise above peer into the scene

190
00:23:57.240 --> 00:24:03.359
<v Speaker 1>from the outside looking in, you would see the soft

191
00:24:03.440 --> 00:24:08.960
<v Speaker 1>and sleeping face of a person who is so very

192
00:24:09.279 --> 00:24:16.440
<v Speaker 1>happy and relaxed, so safe and snuggled into a beautiful

193
00:24:16.640 --> 00:24:22.799
<v Speaker 1>place for a respite. And you will fall into a

194
00:24:22.920 --> 00:24:29.559
<v Speaker 1>sleep with dreams that are harmonious with the natural beauty

195
00:24:29.759 --> 00:24:38.079
<v Speaker 1>that surrounds you, the air offering a freshness that purifies

196
00:24:38.119 --> 00:24:49.559
<v Speaker 1>you within as you inhale and exhale, finding sleep. And

00:24:57.160 --> 00:25:04.559

199
00:25:04.680 --> 00:25:09.720
<v Speaker 1>you need to do to heal and recover from the day,

200
00:25:11.559 --> 00:25:17.559
<v Speaker 1>with more adventures waiting for you, as you let go

201
00:25:19.640 --> 00:25:29.279
<v Speaker 1>right now, drifting down, down, letting your consciousness drift away

202
00:25:30.799 --> 00:25:42.319
<v Speaker 1>into the night, traveling, finding rest and ease, finding enchantment.

203
