YOU MAY WANT TO RECORD THE FOLLOWING NARRATIVE...ESPECIALLY IF YOU CANNOT VISUALIZE IT WELL WHILE LYING DOWN!

Get into a comfy position in bed...as comfy as you can get. If you are in pain, take some aspirin or acetaminophen...Then lie back and empty your mind....

Imagine you are at a set of double doors. They are opening to you, revealing a set of stairs....Breathe slowly, and count down these stairs...There are ten...Count down with me...Ten...nine...eight...seven...six...five...four...three...two...one....

There is a passage...walk through it, and you will see a room...it is huge, and completely empty...Fill this room with anything you choose...a swimming pool...A garden...or any decorations you choose...Take your time decorating this special place...

When the room is complete, you will see another set of stairs...count and go down those stairs, as you did before...ten...nine...eight...seven...six...five...four...three...two...one...

Now, you suddenly enter the past, and a good childhood memory. Relive the memory in every detail...See it all...take your time....

When you are ready, you see another set of stairs...Count down them as before, ten to one....[record the countdown as before]...

Before you is a temple, synagogue, church or other sacred place...Walk in...

See it as you would like it to be...

Waiting for you at the front is your Higher Power...Buddha...Jesus...Spirit...whomever....

Have a deep conversation with this being...Tell him/her/it everything that troubles you...Talk and confess and cry, if need be...

You should be in a deep place of relaxation by now...ask the being to help you go to sleep...

Lie your head down with him/her/it, and sleep...

I hope this meditation helps you get some shut-eye!

Blessings.
