Every night when I lay in bed, I close my eyes and allow peace to flow through my body like a serene brook. Sweet sleep comes easily to me because my mind is free from stress.
At the end of the day, I pray, giving up control of all my fears. I release myself from worrisome thoughts. With all my might, I embrace the hand of safety, which carries me through the night.
I fall asleep quickly without incessant tossing or turning. My sleep is profound and rejuvenating. In the morning, I wake up feeling refreshed because I get plenty of rest.
Before going to bed, I stay away from coffee or other caffeinated beverages to safeguard my system. I eat dinner at least three hours before bed to give my stomach a chance to settle.
My bedtime ritual includes a few moments of relaxation prior to going to bed. I listen to soft music, light my favorite scent, and meditate on my day. I turn the television off to keep myself from becoming tense.
I use a white noise machine when I need a soothing sound to help me fall asleep. On nights when the environment is too loud, I wear earplugs to bed. I am willing to make any adjustment necessary to facilitate my sleep.
My sleep environment is conducive to success. The temperature in my home is comfortable enough for me to sleep. My pillow, mattress, and bedding are perfect for my needs. I adjust the lighting in my room to keep it dark.
Today, I choose to take time setting my room up for a better night’s sleep. I focus my mind on pleasant thoughts and allow my mind to drift off peacefully.
