Speaker 1: Hello and welcome to Michele Sanctuary. You are listening to
Speaker 1: Starry Starry Night, a guided meditation and sleep hypnosis to
Speaker 1: ease anxiety and stress. This recording may be best enjoyed
Speaker 1: when you have a time you can be alone, safely
Speaker 1: rest and before you go to sleep. For the best experience,
Speaker 1: you may listen with headphones. This journey is in your hands.
Speaker 1: As you open up your imagination and feel the most
Speaker 1: intuitive parts of your mind open up and expand. And
Speaker 1: as this is happening, you may even feel as though
Speaker 1: a switch has turned on a light inside, setting aglow
Speaker 1: memories and thoughts and ideas that are most in line
Speaker 1: with your best self. I am merely a guide, and
Speaker 1: you may think of my voice as the voice of
Speaker 1: an old friend and a voice that represents your intentions
Speaker 1: for living your happiest, most fulfilling, and best life. And
Speaker 1: as you lie down in a comfortable place, you may
Speaker 1: feel your body getting heavy. You may just ease and
Speaker 1: shift around and shake off any last impressions of your day,
Speaker 1: setting aside any of the thoughts and remnants you have
Speaker 1: floating in your mind concerning to day and about tomorrow.
Speaker 1: As you focus on right now and when you hear
Speaker 1: the words right now, you find your return to your breath,
Speaker 1: each time connecting with the present moment, tuning into yourself
Speaker 1: as this is your time alone for you and your
Speaker 1: own thoughts and your own opportunity for self renewal and healing.
Speaker 1: As you fall asleep, bedtime is a sacred time. We're
Speaker 1: all the working organs and systems of your body are
Speaker 1: able to rest and recover and restore. Taking this time
Speaker 1: to honor your body forgetting you through this life, performing
Speaker 1: functions as they should without any thought or conscious direction
Speaker 1: from you. As you turn to your breath, the one
Speaker 1: thing that may be controlled consciously or without thought, this
Speaker 1: vital task that keeps you alive and well. And you
Speaker 1: may now take conscious control of your breath, emptying out
Speaker 1: all your air until the deepest part of your belly collapses.
Speaker 1: And you may now inhale for one two three, nxhal
Speaker 1: for three two one, and again inhale for one two
Speaker 1: three hen exhale for three two one, and on this
Speaker 1: next breath you may exhale for double the amount of
Speaker 1: time you took to inhale, emptying out all your air.
Speaker 1: As you inhale for one two three n exhale for
Speaker 1: six five four three two one lovely, And now that
Speaker 1: you have expanded your lungs, letting go of any tension
Speaker 1: you may have been holding there, you are well equipped
Speaker 1: to begin this journey. On this tranquil, starry night, you
Speaker 1: may visualize that you are finishing a climb atop a
Speaker 1: mountain in a remote town. Wherever that town or location is,
Speaker 1: you may choose. Perhaps you have climbed this peak many
Speaker 1: times before, or perhaps this is your first time approaching
Speaker 1: the summit and coming with a newness and excitement. And
Speaker 1: in your body you feel the tired accomplishment of having
Speaker 1: ascended so high, every muscle feeling satisfied yet heavy, as
Speaker 1: you are ready to meet your goal and camp for
Speaker 1: the night. The sky above is a deep shade of
Speaker 1: blue black, and the air is cool and fresh, and
Speaker 1: you inhale and exhale, and you are adorned in your
Speaker 1: most comfortable and warm clothing that allows you to enjoy
Speaker 1: the briskness and the fragrant night air. And your path
Speaker 1: is lit by the abundance of stars above, glittering across
Speaker 1: the sky with a brilliant glow, and the moon above
Speaker 1: shines as well, and you feel at peace with yourself
Speaker 1: and all that is around. In the distance, you hear
Speaker 1: an owl hoot, a nocturnal call. You watch your feet
Speaker 1: stepping on twigs and pine needles crunching below your feet
Speaker 1: that leave tracks into the earth, feeling so connected to
Speaker 1: the mountain and nature around you, the cool night air
Speaker 1: meeting your face and tingling all over as a gentle
Speaker 1: breeze comes through. Counting the last steps that are bringing
Speaker 1: you to your destination one, two, three, four, five, six seven,
Speaker 1: and you see a low ahead, creating shadows on the
Speaker 1: path you follow. You walk towards the light and find
Speaker 1: that a camp is waiting for you. A fire is
Speaker 1: burning brightly, and the intoxicating fragrance of this primal experience
Speaker 1: brings you back to thoughts of sun spent by a
Speaker 1: campfire with those you love, and you feel so safe
Speaker 1: and cared for, tended to as you look out around
Speaker 1: from the sight. You are on the highest mountain in
Speaker 1: the area, so even after nightfall, you can see the
Speaker 1: silhouettes of mountains around you, and in a distant valley
Speaker 1: is a city where gradually you watch as the lights
Speaker 1: begin to go off and the city goes to sleep.
Speaker 1: And near the city. In the valley, you see a
Speaker 1: few random lights from cars on distant hills, looking as
Speaker 1: if they are fireflies strown about the curves that they climb.
Speaker 1: You in Ahale one last time, as you approach a
Speaker 1: large plush pillow that is as big as a bed
Speaker 1: and is waiting for you by the fire. You sit
Speaker 1: down on this bed and notice a note is placed
Speaker 1: on the pillow that reads sweet Dreams, and next to
Speaker 1: the pillow is a thermos containing your favorite nighttime beverage
Speaker 1: that helps you unwind, perhaps it is tea or hot
Speaker 1: cider or hot cocoa. When you take a sip, using
Speaker 1: yourself into this bed, looking at the nights sky and
Speaker 1: trees that surround you, feeling very much at ease and
Speaker 1: very content, noticing how something so simple, yet so thoughtful
Speaker 1: can make you feel so good and appreciated. Recognizing your
Speaker 1: own worth and how much you deserve this can, you
Speaker 1: allow yourself to fall into this bed for the night,
Speaker 1: sinking in as a plush pillow forms perfectly around your body,
Speaker 1: supporting your joints and your neck and your head, and
Speaker 1: even aligning with the curve of your back. You pull
Speaker 1: a soft, fluffy blanket over your body as you look
Speaker 1: up at the sky above the ceaseless stars that twinkle
Speaker 1: around you, letting your eyes go bleary. Focusing in and
Speaker 1: out on these stars like a natural cinema, you begin
Speaker 1: to see images and connect the stars, and they lend
Speaker 1: themselves to be whatever wish you see and would like
Speaker 1: to see in the future. Focusing on this wish before
Speaker 1: you fall asleep, and every star is like a possibility
Speaker 1: for you and your life, And on this night, it
Speaker 1: feels and appears that the stars and the possibilities are endless.
Speaker 1: Continuing to relax and inhale and exhale, at first you
Speaker 1: see a beautiful memory play out across the night sky,
Speaker 1: the memory you have held dear for so long, a
Speaker 1: memory that makes you feel most alive and happy, and
Speaker 1: even more importantly, memory that serves to make you experience synchronicity.
Speaker 1: This memory makes you feel that you have a very
Speaker 1: special purpose in this life, and to fulfill this purpose,
Speaker 1: the people and tools and experiences that you needed all
Speaker 1: came together to support you in this life. Can you
Speaker 1: feel the impact of this beautiful memory learning you back
Speaker 1: to a memory you can only imagine your own creation,
Speaker 1: defying all odds and challenges in nature to form you
Speaker 1: this memory before birth, safe in a womb, growing and
Speaker 1: just having a universal trust, a trust in the process
Speaker 1: to begin the journey of forming the person you are
Speaker 1: to day, Relaxing further, feeling so strong and resilient from
Speaker 1: all the mountains and challenges you have climbed and overcome
Speaker 1: so far, connecting to the wisdom within that all will
Speaker 1: be all right, That you are well, and write where
Speaker 1: you be long right now, looking to the sky of
Speaker 1: twinkling stars once again, just like a canvas, connecting them
Speaker 1: as you create an image of something you have longed
Speaker 1: for and wanted for yourself, all these twinkling possibilities coming
Speaker 1: together to form the realization of a dream you have
Speaker 1: held dear watching as it plays out on the night sky,
Speaker 1: and you see yourself in the future, laughing, feeling content
Speaker 1: and accomplished, feeling alive and well as your dream comes true,
Speaker 1: knowing the connecting to the stream stream of possibilities flowing
Speaker 1: towards you. This stream of positive energy and hope is
Speaker 1: like adding fuel to a car that is on a journey,
Speaker 1: as when you get in a car and set out
Speaker 1: towards a destination, you know you will arrive eventually, and
Speaker 1: maybe you will take a scenic rout or a detour,
Speaker 1: or maybe delays or obstacles will present themselves, but you
Speaker 1: will continue onward and ultimately arrive. And the same is
Speaker 1: true for your life. You are the navigator, and these
Speaker 1: visions of your dreams coming true, playing out along the
Speaker 1: stars are that fuel that keeps you going, enjoying the
Speaker 1: path that you have chosen, owning all that is yours
Speaker 1: and the limitless possibilities ahead. And when you look to
Speaker 1: the stars from now on, you will find yourself feeling
Speaker 1: a deep connection to possibilities and to your life's purpose,
Speaker 1: reminding you of the expansive and the infinite universe and
Speaker 1: how you are apart of this mass reality. Your eyes
Speaker 1: begin to feel so very heavy and tired, allowing them
Speaker 1: to close as you breathe in the healing night air,
Speaker 1: feeling the space between your muscles and joints, the space
Speaker 1: between your vertebra, between your fingers and toes, and in
Speaker 1: the space welcoming in a healing and warm light that
Speaker 1: makes you feel at home and makes you feel so
Speaker 1: very deeply relaxed, and you feel your mind drifting to
Speaker 1: this ethereal dream like state feeling as a gentle wind
Speaker 1: comes to you and electrifies your skin from head to toe.
Speaker 1: Right now, you feel tranquility and peace, closing your eyes
Speaker 1: because the heaviness of your lids is winning over any
Speaker 1: desire to stay awake. Drifting and drifting, the sounds of
Speaker 1: the campfire and running stream, We're bringing you into a
Speaker 1: hypnotic state. The sweet healing dreams that await are beckoning
Speaker 1: to you, And as you close your eyes, memories of
Speaker 1: joy come flooding to you. Failing, a warm, tingling sensation
Speaker 1: all over, failing, so heavy, so relaxed, so in tune
Speaker 1: with the sacred harmony with nature that is just for you.
Speaker 1: Nestled into the pillow, still at peace and full of gratitude,
Speaker 1: knowing that any time you may bring yourself to the
Speaker 1: state of ease. As you inhale and exhale, and how
Speaker 1: good it feels to have something existing just for you,
Speaker 1: nurturing and kind and so very much deserved, happy and warm.
Speaker 1: The fire continues to burn, and inside you there's a
Speaker 1: warm orb warming your torso and all your inner organs.
Speaker 1: As you inhale and exhale, serene and grateful, succumbing to
Speaker 1: the moment as the tiredness takes over and you may rest,
Speaker 1: breathing in and out, you are free to drift, drift
Speaker 1: further and further away to a dreamy world, shadows dancing
Speaker 1: all around you from the fire that burns brightly, beautiful
Speaker 1: and serene, and you are floating deeper and deeper down,
Speaker 1: drifting away closer to sleep as you inhale and exhale,
Speaker 1: finding surrender. And if anyone were to witness this moment,
Speaker 1: for you were to rise above peer into the scene
Speaker 1: from the outside looking in, you would see the soft
Speaker 1: and sleeping face of a person who is so very
Speaker 1: happy and relaxed, so safe and snuggled into a beautiful
Speaker 1: place for a respite. And you will fall into a
Speaker 1: sleep with dreams that are harmonious with the natural beauty
Speaker 1: that surrounds you, the air offering a freshness that purifies
Speaker 1: you within as you inhale and exhale, finding sleep. And
Speaker 1: it makes all right now, easy to let go as
Speaker 1: you relax, as you drift asleep and do all that
Speaker 1: you need to do to heal and recover from the day,
Speaker 1: with more adventures waiting for you, as you let go
Speaker 1: right now, drifting down, down, letting your consciousness drift away
Speaker 1: into the night, traveling, finding rest and ease, finding enchantment.
Speaker 1: I am going to count you down to this place
Speaker 1: of restorative and beautiful, dream filled sleep ten nine, eight, seven, six, five,
Speaker 1: four three two one finding stillness, finding release, finding peace,
Speaker 1: finding sleep. Good night, U u u
