Speaker #0Hey sweetheart, you're still awake, huh? I can tell. I can feel you shifting a little under the covers. Don't worry, it's okay. You've had a long day, haven't you? It's alright. I'm right here with you. Let's take a moment, okay? Let's slow everything down. Just focus on my voice. Let me help you relax. Take a nice, deep breath with me. and let it all out. There we go. You're safe here, you know? This is your space. No deadlines, no expectations, no worries. It's just you and me. and the sound of the rain outside. Can you hear it? It's like the whole world is slowing down just for you. You know, sometimes when I can't sleep, I like to imagine that the rain is just washing over me, washes away all of my thoughts. And as it pours down over my body, the stress washes away too. Maybe that'll work for you. And yeah, you want to try it for me? Listen to the rain. Imagine it washing over your body. Every drop feels light and calm. And it moves down your body, from your head, down to your neck, through your chest, down your abdomen, running all the way down your legs, and washing away. All those stressful thoughts. Yeah? Good. You're doing so well for me. Even when you feel so stressed. So overwhelmed. So tired. And you feel like the world is too heavy. You're still here. You're still trying. And I am so proud of you for all of that. And right now, you don't have to do anything except rest. It's okay to let go for a little while. You've done enough. Let your body sink into the mattress. Feel the blankets hugging you. Feel the warmth and just let yourself drift. You deserve rest. You deserve to feel comfortable and cozy. You've worked so hard. hard, even if you don't always see it, and you know what, it's enough, you're enough, just as you are, do you feel that, my fingers running along your heart? It's just a little touch to remind you that I'm still here. I'm not going anywhere. I've got you, sweetheart. I'm always going to try my best to take care of you, because you deserve that. You deserve someone who will drop everything and help you relax. You're a good person. You're a good partner. You work hard. You make a difference in the lives of every person you talk to. That's right. I'm right here. I'm not going anywhere. Just listen to the rain. Feel my fingers along your arms. Let's try something, okay? I want you to breathe with me. Don't worry if your mind wanders. That's normal. Just come back to your breath. Come back to me. Okay? Breathe in slowly. One, two, three. Hold it. And now breathe out. One, two, three. That's it. Let's do it again. In, one, two, three. Hold, out, one, two, three. Feel your chest rising and falling. Let that rhythm soothe you. You're doing amazing. Just keep going at your own pace, and I'll stay right here with you. Do you want me to tell you a little story? Something simple, just to help you let go of the day? Okay. Close your eyes. And picture this. We're lying on a soft blanket in the middle of a beautiful meadow. The grass is cool beneath the blanket, and above, the stars are shining so bright. There's a gentle breeze, just enough to make the leaves in the trees whisper. Can you hear it? We're just there, together, looking up at the sky, my fingers still moving up and down your arm. No worries, no clocks ticking. No emails to answer. No texts on your phone. It's just us and the universe stretching out above us. It's peaceful, isn't it? And the best part? Whenever you feel like you need a place like that, you can just go there in your mind. This field where we lie together, it's always waiting for you. You're starting to feel a little heavier now, aren't you? That's good. It means your body is relaxing. Just let it happen. You don't have to fight it. I love these quiet moments with you. Even when you're asleep, it feels like we're connected. Like we're sharing this little bubble of peace together. I hope you know how much you mean to me. I always want to help you. You're my favorite person. You know that? My safe place. So let me be your safe place tonight. You're almost there. I can feel it. I can tell your body is relaxing. That's good. You're doing so good. Just let the rain carry you the rest of the way. Listen to its rhythm. It's like a lullaby.
