Come, let me introduce you to the world of ancient Egypt.
Hi, and welcome to Sleep Cove, helping you have a good night's sleep.
Sleep Cove episodes consist of sleep hypnosis, guided meditations and sleep stories,
and are designed to relax your mind and put you in a perfect relaxed state for sleep.
This sleep cove episode is a sleep hypnosis recording aimed at helping with your insomnia.
Please do not listen to this or any hypnosis track whilst driving or operating heavy machinery.
Please make sure you listen to this track in a place where you can safely go to sleep and let's begin.
Please put yourself into a comfortable position where you can safely go to sleep.
A little tip I have is that don't cross your legs because sometimes as you're ready to sleep,
the pressure of crossing your legs can sometimes be uncomfortable.
So please find a bed or a comfortable chair where you can safely go to sleep.
And as you lie, feel more relaxed into the bed and get yourself into a really comfortable position,
a really comfortable position where you can go to sleep.
I want you to concentrate on your breath
as you take deep breaths in
and out
and deep breaths in through your nose
and with each breath you take
you can feel your body relaxing
more and more
feel that comfortable
relaxation flow
like a waterfall
from the top of your head
all the way down your body
from the top of the head
to the tips of your top of your head
to the tips of your toes
soothing, calming
and relaxation
easing away
any tensions you may have
and relaxing all the muscles in your body
this makes you feel very good
and makes you feel even more comfortable
and makes you feel so relaxed
it's a lovely feeling to be so relaxed
It's wonderful and it's fantastic that you're here
and it's perfect that you are here right now.
Enjoying the calming and soothing experience.
You begin to feel more and more relaxed
and you're aware of your body now.
The weight of your body in the bed,
perhaps you can feel it sinking down deeper into the mattress.
or chair under your body weight
your mind is in complete control of your body
including your muscles
so when your mind tells your muscles to relax
they do relax
focus your thoughts on your feet and your toes
there's an energy
moving up the soles of your feet
and the energy is relaxing all the muscles
in your feet and toes.
You feel the muscles relax now.
That energy is moving up into your calves
as it moves down your calf muscles.
They become very loose and relax.
Feel your calf muscles relax now.
And this feeling of relaxation now moves into your thigh muscles,
causing them to simply let go and relax your thigh muscles.
Just hang down from your body.
They're not tense.
Relaxation energy is moving into your hips,
into your pelvis, into your muscles.
They unwind to become very relaxed
and they detent.
Feel the energy move.
Through your waist.
on the front and back and into your back, into your abdominal muscles in your waist to the
small of your back. As it does, all the muscles are bathed, taxing energy. It causes them to
de-tense and unwind. And if your mind begins to wonder, that's okay. It just means you're
relaxed and feeling very ready for sleep.
Your unconscious mind is listening very carefully to every word I say.
And with each word that I utter,
and with each breath that you take,
you can feel yourself relaxing more and more.
Now the energy is flowing into the top of your back
and into your chest and the muscles just relax.
and the energy moves into your shoulders
and you feel them sinking down.
Your shoulders sink down
and the energy moves into your arms
and down into your hands and your fingers
relaxing all the muscles in your limbs
you may even feel some tingling in your body
as the relaxation energy reaches your muscles.
That relaxation energy now moves into your neck
and releases any tension you might have there.
It simply dissipates,
allowing the neck muscles to become loose and free.
Your neck and your head sink into the pillow.
It's just a few small muscles now
which support your entire body,
including your neck and your head
in the bed
and into the pillow.
you remember how nice it is to sink into the bed and the pillow.
It feels fantastic.
Take this energy and it now moves into your head,
causing the muscles in your face,
in your scalp, in your forehead, around your eyes, in your jaw.
To detent this relaxation energy flows around your face
and you relax everything.
that is holding you back and any tension you might have in your eyes or your forehead or your jaw or in your mouth
just relaxes your entire body is now relaxed and your body feels amazing you're feeling sleepy
you're feeling comfortable you're feeling safe and you're feeling secure you're very close to sleep right now
and as you hold onto those thoughts
the energy flows down from the top of your head
and moves up and down from the top
right to the top of your head to the tips of your feet
and you feel this energy
from the top to the bottom of your body
and you feel enveloped in a warm cocoon
and this energy protects you from any negative influences
any negative thoughts you might have
your body is your protected tonight and is ready for sleep
and you've told your body you're ready for sleep
you're in a perfect state of equilibrium
as you relax more
you're very relaxed now and feeling sleepy
you may hear sounds in your environment
but unless it's something which needs your urgent attention
you remain totally relaxed
the sounds you hear, including my voice, only serve to help you go deeper and deeper asleep.
You have the ability to come out of this trance whenever you wish, and you are fully safe and secure.
So continue to fully relax into the bed.
deities every breath you exhale you drift deeper and deeper asleep asleep at a very deep level of trance but as deep as it is there's another level where we can go further down that's twice as deep as where you are now and i can tell you there's a level below that end times deeper
than the level we are now deeper as well.
I want you to imagine now standing.
At the top of a staircase, it could be a staircase you've seen before.
Or it could be a new image you're seeing right now.
You'll barefoot and you feel the carpet.
Underneath your feet, as your feet gently sink in to the carpet pile,
you go right to the top of the stairs.
and the 10 steps down and at the bottom of the stairs you can see a door and the door has some glass
embedded in it and you can see some light sparkling through the glass and you know through that door
is your special and safe place you take a step down onto the first step and as you do you feel
deeply relaxed. You take a step down to the eighth step and the seventh and each step you take you feel
deeper and deeper relaxed twice as deep as he did before and you take the next step six and five
and feel so deeply relaxed relaxation that you haven't felt in such a long time and you can't wait
to get down the stairs and go to your special place through the door.
And you step down to step four.
And three, and each time it doubles your level of relaxation.
And step one, as you feel so deeply relaxed,
you stand in front of the door,
knowing that this to your special and safe place.
And as you go through the door,
you know what you'll see there will make you feel
totally safe and secure. It might be a room. It might be nature. It could be a room that you've
been in before. It could be a field or a beach or a place you know very well. Or maybe a place
you've never seen before. But you begin to explore it. There is vivid in your mind. You see the
colours around you. You go and explore. Do you've explored this safe place you decide to sit
down, lie on your back and absorb all the good feelings you have, all the security and all the relaxation of this place.
You can revisit this place whenever you want to, because this is your safe place.
You feel safe, secure, comfortable, relaxed and happy.
Just go where your mind takes you.
Drift and float and feel sleepier, more relaxed,
and more comfortable than ever before.
In a few moments you're going to drift into short sleep.
But for now, visualize a soft mist,
entering your special place,
your favourite place,
so that little by little the whole of your favourite place
is surrounded by a soft, warm mist.
the mist becomes thicker and denser,
but it is still very warm and comfortable,
very pleasant as it becomes thicker and denser,
warmer and even more comfortable on the mist
to become thicker and warmer,
and as you do,
notice too,
have thoughts and memories and feelings
that drift in and out of your awareness,
while listening to the sound of my voice,
become dimmer as they almost begin to fade out from time to time and this beautiful warm mist is
very comfortable and envelops your body from head to toe and your thoughts and feelings and memories
become misty and vague. Perhaps you notice my voice becomes more distant and less clear,
dimmer thoughts and ideas and feelings entering your awareness
before drifting away of your awareness
those thoughts and ideas become more and more misty and vague
misty and vague and distance time you find yourself
slowly and comfortable drifting and sometimes
Slowly floating away, my voice may become more distant.
You go down into a comfortable feeling of deep within you and you're able to drift comfortably down into a sound natural sleep.
You will sleep for a short while my voice speaking to you as you get that rest and sleep you need and everything becomes vague.
As you drift away into sleep
and from this moment you were able to drift
off to sleep at any time that you need to
you will drift into gentle hypnotic rest
whenever you were able to sleep
every time you are ready for sleep
you will go to your own special place
as the tension drains out of your body
you will gradually feel your special place
with a soft comfortable mist and fade away
fading away any thoughts
and leaving away any feelings and memories
as you fade away
to easily atrocile
