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.
Starting point is 00:02:03 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,
Starting point is 00:03:13 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
Starting point is 00:03:51 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
Starting point is 00:04:17 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
Starting point is 00:04:45 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.
Starting point is 00:05:41 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
Starting point is 00:06:19 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,
Starting point is 00:07:00 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.
Starting point is 00:07:48 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,
Starting point is 00:09:05 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
Starting point is 00:09:45 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.
Starting point is 00:10:24 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,
Starting point is 00:11:02 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
Starting point is 00:12:34 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
Starting point is 00:13:22 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
Starting point is 00:14:24 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.
Starting point is 00:16:59 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
Starting point is 00:18:36 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,
Starting point is 00:19:55 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.
Starting point is 00:22:40 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
Starting point is 00:23:18 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,
Starting point is 00:23:57 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
Starting point is 00:25:05 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
Starting point is 00:26:35 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
