To sleep cave, the place to come for a great night's sleep.
With me, Christopher Fitten.
Tonight, you'll hear a guided story where you visit your childhood home.
It doesn't matter what this could be enabled as.
you could say it's a guided story or a guided meditation.
It's just designed to be a peaceful time for you to explore your old childhood home.
In the story, you'll observe the past.
You'll be filled with memories, which will hopefully be positive and nice.
And you'll be given a relaxing experience.
with some techniques to reduce stress also.
A lot of people have nice dreams about visiting their childhood home
and this story is designed to emulate this feeling.
I listen to this recording in a place that if you were to fall asleep,
you could do so safely.
So let's begin by focusing on a spot.
Look away and focus on that spot again.
Close your eyes as you take a deep breath in.
You to imagine some colours in your mind's eye.
A colour that you want to choose.
Maybe your favourite one.
Or just a colour that has come into your vision.
But the colours dart around.
They offer you a sense of safety and calmness.
Develop you, offering you a sense of deep peace
as it helps relax you from the top of your head
onto the bottom of your feet.
You feel so relaxed.
From the top of your head all the street that you grew up on.
It's a warm summer day.
You feel comfortable.
is a corner just the same as they once as you continue to walk.
The hubbub and your busy life starts to fade.
It takes you back to that time.
You're leaving behind.
Curity washes over to the house.
You can reach out the door.
You remember the colour.
You were back in a place.
Places where you had.
happy times and experiences inside the house.
You close the door behind you, closing out,
the stresses and sources of frustration in the world.
They can do new hard to leave this space whenever you want.
And if you do leave,
you will be transported to a familiar destination
you are reminded
back to your childhood
and you decide what direction
you would like to take in the house
would you like to explore now
if you can't quite remember
that's fine
that's good
just take in the feelings
let them guide you
might just pop back into your mind.
As you explore, you look at the walls created with these images.
Make you feel happy.
You may wish to stop and linger in special pictures.
Relive a fond memory for you.
Family wedding from a graduation photo or family photos.
They have just been left.
for years.
Whatever it is,
take a moment
to absorb this feeling
as you relive this memory.
Continue to view your own
the kitchen air and smell
comforting familiar smells
from the kitchen
of your favorite
childhood meal.
Take a moment
to enjoy this smell
and the feelings associated with it
you might be able to hear the memories
of what happened here who occupied it
you remember the feelings of excitement
that you would get as a child
knowing what you would have for this meal
feeling the contentment
it would bring to you
You take your usual seat at the table and begin to eat the plates of the same pattern
you remember from your childhood.
It brings you a sense of peace and calm to you.
The familiar flavours filling your soul.
You start to observe the kitchen.
The colours of the cabinets.
the views from the way and making you feel you decide to explore the rest of the house and begin to walk towards the living room.
This is of know the way here, treading their familiar path without you even thinking about it into the living room.
and that same sense of warmth and familiarity greets you
the sofas or couches are just the same
and you have the same soft feel
as your hand grazes against them
they seem so inviting
so if you decide to take a seat
the same spot sofa envelops you
in the same way it did
you begin to take in your surroundings and the curtains are just the
you begin to play back the happy memories of your childhood holidays your family all sitting together
TV variations up maybe with a Christmas tree in its usual spot
take a moment to let these happy memories you journey back to these think of your
caregivers that were here. You can observe the good memories. You had with them, you take it all in,
and imagine the times you had as you're thinking about happy times. It's soon time to visit
one of the most special rooms in the childhood bedroom. But before we go there, you can go explore,
You can go into any rooms you want to enter.
Just go and explore the corridors, opening doors, being in the sights, smells and noises.
You can visit the garden if you grew up with one, remembering the nice times you had playing here.
You can go through the house and gardens as well.
fast or as slow as you would like, just experience this place in your own time and all
and at your mind as you go on your way.
I like to enjoy or see any part of the house in your own time.
You can just pull and do so where you've decided to go and visit your bedroom,
seem to lead the way
without you even thinking
to the stairs
place your hand
you feel solid and familiar to you
you place your foot
on the first step
and you begin to ascend
step
you feel lighter and freer
closer to the sense
of freedom you had
as a child
Tension in your shoulders dissolve.
Swingings to dissolve.
Step four is flowing through.
Your feet have a lightness now.
And your steps into balance.
Seven.
Your whole posture seems to unlock
and you feel open and at ease.
Your body and soul feel light and pure.
Step 9.
The burdens in your mind
float away and dissipate
Like a fog in the morning
sunlight
Step 10
You sit foot upstairs
And finally you feel the same
Exact sense of carefree
and joyful existence
You had in your childhood
You realized
that the feelings of stress and worries in your life are pointless,
that cause must be dealt with negative emotions.
These things bring, with them, will not help you.
See the simplicity of the world through your childhood self,
a version of yourself,
you to deal with your emotions, bury them until they become too much.
Version of you, prioritized happiness.
This version of you wasn't afraid to ask others for help.
And this version of you was optimistic about the future to your heart.
You glance around the landing.
You see the bedrooms of your family
You can remember how those rooms looked
And how they made you feel
You see the bathroom
Remembering childhood bath times
Of the town
To continue this journey to your bedroom
You feel so excited to go back there
Wish to carry it with you always
Return to it
These positive feelings
strength as gives you joy to be you.
It to be posters or photographs on the walls
or collections of your most prized objects on the shelves
and these treasured items
give you a strong sense of happiness and joy
as you look upon them as to the past
you know that thinking of these again in the future
will bring back the same sense
of who you truly are
you take in the room
it feels so safe
so familiar
so loved
brings you a sense of calm and peace
and you remember how it fell
not to be burdened by the pressure
of adult
to be full of joy
and happiness
present within you
and you simply
you have to let them
come to the fall
about the covers
safety and nuggled
within them
see a book
on the bedside table
to take a look
you remember this book
you remember
sneaking on your
bedside light
when you should have been
asleep
and reading it. Greases on the cover and curled edges are exactly as you remember them to be.
The favourite of yours and you have fond memories of reading it.
You are falling asleep with it still in your hands sometimes.
You are filled with a sense of possibility that you had when you were a child in this
place. You are filled with the optimism and joy associated with this place. This feeling lives
here. You get into the bed that are just the same as they once were. You feel the softness
of the pillow too. And as you snuggle in, you feel so happy and at peace, so relaxed and comfortable,
You close your eyes and drift deeper and deeper into sleep,
ever deeper into blissful and joyful sleep.
Sleep is the same deep and untroubled sleep you had as a child.
It's refreshing, deep and peaceful, deeply and heavily.
Much with this part of yourself, a child within you.
The person who is following, who is following,
of joy and optimism, who is happy and carefree.
You just relax, but you can leave this place at any time.
