Welcome beautiful souls into this space
0:03
once more.
0:05
We continue on the topic affirmations.
0:11
And today
0:13
we are going to be placing special focus
0:16
on night affirmations for peace and
0:20
rest.
0:23
A guided journey into calm healing and
0:27
deep sleep.
0:32
I am from Bodolin.
0:34
Good evening to you.
0:37
If you are listening to this right now,
0:39
it means the day is slowly coming to an
0:42
end.
0:44
The body is beginning to soften.
0:48
The mind is beginning to slow down. And
0:51
somewhere within you, there is a quiet
0:54
desire for rest.
0:58
But many people do not arrive at night
1:02
peacefully. Sometimes the body lies down
1:06
but the mind continues to run. Thought
1:09
replay the day regret whispers.
1:14
Worries about tomorrow appear
1:19
and before we know it sleep becomes
1:23
difficult.
1:25
Tonight we are going to do something
1:28
different.
1:31
Instead of allowing the mind to wander
1:33
through anxiety, we will gently guide it
1:37
towards peace,
1:40
towards healing,
1:42
and towards rest.
1:46
Through breathing, reflection and
1:48
affirmations, we will prepare
1:54
our minds and hearts for a deep and
1:57
restorative sleep.
2:01
So, wherever you are, allow yourself to
2:04
get comfortable.
2:07
You may lie down,
2:11
sit in a relaxed position,
2:14
or simply close your eyes.
2:18
Take a slow breath in
2:23
and gently release it.
2:29
Take the second time,
2:33
release it.
2:35
Go the third time.
2:39
Release it.
2:42
Tonight
2:45
we are letting go
2:49
and not doing more.
2:52
Understand that nighttime is one of the
2:54
most powerful moments for the human
2:57
mind.
2:59
During sleep, the brain pro processes
3:02
emotions,
3:04
organizes memories, and restores the
3:07
nervous system. What we carry into sleep
3:11
often shapes how the mind works during
3:15
the night.
3:16
If we carry worry, the body remains
3:19
tense. If we carry peace, the body
3:23
restores itself.
3:28
Affirmations are not magic words.
3:31
They are gentle reminders that guides
3:35
the mind toward healthier patterns.
3:40
They soften the inner voice.
3:44
They calm the nervous system.
3:50
They remind the the heart that it is
3:53
safe to rest.
3:56
Let us let let us share a story that
3:59
will give you more clarity on this
4:02
topic.
4:04
Some time ago, a young professional came
4:07
into therapy. Let us call him Daniel.
4:12
Daniel was very successful in many areas
4:14
of his life. He worked hard, achieved
4:19
his goals, and was respected by
4:22
colleagues.
4:24
But every night when he went to sleep,
4:28
something happened.
4:30
His mind will begin replaying the day.
4:34
He will remember small mistakes,
4:38
things he wished he had said
4:40
differently,
4:43
moments where he felt he had done. He
4:46
had not done enough.
4:51
Instead of resting, his mind judged him.
4:57
Sleep became
4:59
restless.
5:01
He woke up tired and anxious.
5:05
Daniel was referred to therapy by his
5:08
company.
5:11
And when
5:14
most uh clients are referred by their
5:17
companies, they always want to view it
5:20
from the perspective of the company, not
5:23
actually viewing it from their own spec
5:27
their own uh perspective. The benefit
5:30
that will come because of this. Daniel
5:33
was one of such client.
5:36
During one of our session,
5:39
I asked him a simple question. Remember
5:43
that a question
5:45
provokes you to go into selfreflection.
5:51
And when you are able to to to reflect,
5:56
it takes you to a place
5:59
of vulnerability,
6:02
responsibility,
6:05
and accountability.
6:10
The question was, what is the last thing
6:13
you usually say to yourself before you
6:16
fall asleep?
6:20
because his problem was insomia
6:25
and during every session he will repeat
6:29
the same thing.
6:32
when you come to the session and you
6:35
asked how was your night Daniel you
6:40
respond by saying I did not have up to
6:44
an hour of sleep.
6:49
When I asked that question
6:53
he paused.
6:55
Then he said something that many people
6:58
unknowingly say to themselves.
7:02
I usually think about everything I did
7:05
wrong
7:06
and to him that this statement was
7:09
meaningful.
7:11
So we tried something new. I invited
7:14
Daniel to practice night affirmations.
7:18
Before sleep, he place one hand on his
7:22
heart, breathe slowly, and repeat a few
7:27
gentle affirmations.
7:30
At first he felt awkward.
7:34
The mind resisted.
7:37
But after a few weeks
7:40
something began to change. He started
7:43
falling asleep faster.
7:46
His mornings became calmer.
7:52
More importantly, his relationship with
7:55
himself soften.
7:59
The voice of self-criticism slowly
8:02
became a voice of compassion.
8:06
This is the quiet power of affirmation
8:08
before sleep.
8:11
They reprogram the emotional tone of the
8:15
mind.
8:18
Daniel kept repeating this affirmation
8:21
to himself over and over. And by the
8:25
time a moon
8:28
elapsed, Daniel was a different person.
8:35
Before we begin the affirmation,
8:38
let us calm the body.
8:42
Take a slow deep breath
8:46
in through the nose.
8:52
Hold it gently for a moment.
8:57
Now release slowly through the mouth.
9:02
Again
9:06
and slowly release through the mouth.
9:11
Let us try the third time. Gently
9:14
breathe in
9:17
and slowly release through the mouth.
9:21
Feel
9:23
the shoulders relaxing.
9:28
Feel the jaw softening.
9:34
Allow the body to sink into the surface
9:37
beneath.
9:41
There is no way you need nowhere you
9:44
need to go.
9:49
Nothing you need to prove.
9:52
Tonight is for restoration.
9:57
You may repeat these softly or simply
10:00
listen or allow them to settle in your
10:03
mind.
10:06
Pause between each one.
10:09
Let the words sink in.
10:14
Place your right palm over your heart.
10:20
Listen as your heart beats.
10:23
I release the weight of today.
10:28
I allow my mind to rest.
10:32
I did my best with the knowledge and
10:35
strength I had today.
10:40
And that is enough.
10:43
I forgive myself for moments that were
10:47
imperfect.
10:49
I release all worries about tomorrow.
10:54
Tomorrow will take care of itself.
10:58
My body deserves rest. My mind deserves
11:04
peace.
11:05
I am safe in this moment.
11:10
I allow calm to fill my heart.
11:15
Each breath
11:17
relaxes my body more deeply.
11:21
I welcome sleep with gratitude.
11:26
My mind is quiet.
11:29
My heart is steady.
11:32
My body is restoring itself.
11:37
Peace flows through me. Tonight I rest.
11:43
Tonight I heal.
11:46
Tonight I restore my strength. Before
11:51
sleep, gratitude has a powerful effect
11:56
on the brain.
11:59
It shifts the mind away from threats
12:02
towards appreciation.
12:05
So let us take a moment
12:08
quietly think about three small things
12:11
from today.
12:14
Do not they do not need to be big
12:18
achievements.
12:20
Perhaps a smile a warm smile that you
12:24
received from a colleague from a
12:26
stranger.
12:28
A gentle conversation you had, a moment
12:31
of calm you experienced,
12:34
a warm meal, you had
12:38
a lesson learned.
12:41
Now gently say within yourself,
12:45
I am grateful for this day.
12:51
I am grateful for the lessons it
12:54
brought.
12:57
I am grateful for the strength within
12:59
me.
13:04
Gratitude soften
13:06
the heart
13:10
and a peaceful heart sleeps deeply.
13:14
Now place your hand gently over your
13:17
heart.
13:19
Feel the warmth of your heart.
13:22
Feel the quiet rhythm of your heartbeat.
13:27
This simple gesture tells the nervous
13:30
system something important.
13:35
It signals safety,
13:38
care,
13:40
compassion
13:44
and much more.
13:47
Now slowly repeat.
13:52
I am here for myself.
13:58
I treat myself with kindness.
14:04
I deserve a rest.
14:10
I deserve peace.
14:14
I allow sleep to embrace me.
14:21
Stay here for a moment
14:24
while breathing slowly
14:28
in and breathing out slowly.
14:33
Feeling the calm,
14:38
feeling the lightness.
14:42
Every night offers us an opportunity
14:45
an an opportunity to release
14:49
the day
14:51
to forgive ourselves
14:55
to rest our minds.
14:58
When we enter sleep with compassion and
15:00
gratitude, the mind heals quietly during
15:04
the night.
15:06
When morning comes, we awaken
15:10
not
15:12
uh only rested but renewed.
15:18
So tonight allow yourself this gift,
15:23
the gift of peace,
15:26
the gift of rest,
15:29
the gift of gentle compassion.
15:34
Take slow a slow pace with this final
15:36
affirmation.
15:38
I am calm.
15:41
I am safe.
15:43
I am at peace.
15:47
My body is relaxing.
15:50
My mind is quiet.
15:54
Sleep is coming naturally.
15:58
I rest deeply.
16:01
I wake renewed.
16:06
Thank you for being in this space with
16:09
me.
16:11
I am glad you're taking these little
16:13
steps
16:15
moving forward.
16:19
I love you.
16:21
Good night.
16:24
Rest well. Your mind and heart deserve
16:29
this peace.
