Transcript
- 0:00Hey you, before you close your eyes tonight, I want you to take a moment with me.
- 0:06Let's just pause together, just you and I, right now.
- 0:10Because I know that your mind has probably been racing all day,
- 0:13trying to hold it all together, trying to be everything for everyone,
- 0:19get everything done, and feeling a little tired.
- 0:23But now it's safe to breathe in and excel.
- 0:28It's safe to come back to you. And I want to tell you something,
- 0:32something that you might not have heard today.
- 0:35You did enough. You tried and you showed up in the best way you could with what
- 0:43you had, even if it didn't feel that it was perfect or productive or your best day ever,
- 0:50let's say. It doesn't matter.
- 0:53You were here. You live today. You felt and that counts and that matters.
- 1:02Maybe the day felt heavy for you. Maybe your thoughts got a little bit loud.
- 1:08Maybe you doubted yourself at some point. Maybe you kept pushing,
- 1:13even if nobody was watching and nobody noticed or nobody said, good job today.
- 1:21Or maybe you felt like you were just barely keeping your head above water all
- 1:25day. But here's what I know for sure.
- 1:27And here's what I want you to do right now.
- 1:30You don't have to carry that into your sleep. You don't have to fix the whole
- 1:34world before you are allowed to rest.
- 1:38So right now, your only job is to let go. And I know it's easier said than done.
- 1:47But your job right now is to let it all go.
- 1:52Let go of the pressure, let go of the tension in your jaw, in your chest,
- 1:58in your shoulders. You know what I'm talking about.
- 2:01Let go of that mental checklist that's still in your brain, the to-do list,
- 2:07you can come back to all of this tomorrow.
- 2:10Tonight, I want you to give yourself permission just to be still,
- 2:15to lay your head down on the pillow, knowing this.
- 2:19You're not behind and you're not failing. You're not too much or not enough.
- 2:25You are a human, a beautiful human, and you are healing in ways that you don't even realize.
- 2:32You don't have to earn rest. I know that for me, it's something that I really
- 2:38had to work on and maybe that's where you're at too.
- 2:41You don't have to earn rest. You don't have to prove anything tonight.
- 2:47You are worthy of deep restorative peace.
- 2:52So take a deep breath with me through your nose and hold it for a moment and let it out gently.
- 3:01And again, just like that, I want you to visualize inhaling peace and exhaling
- 3:09all the pressure from today.
- 3:13Let your nervous system soften and let your muscle unclench and let your mind float a little higher.
- 3:22Just know that you are safe and you're deeply loved.
- 3:26And even if today was maybe not a good day or felt messy or weird or overwhelming
- 3:32or maybe incomplete, you are still allowed to end it with grace.
- 3:40So tomorrow will come and you'll try again and you'll figure it all out.
- 3:47But right now, you need to let that go.
- 3:51I want to remind you that your rest is productivity. Yeah.
- 3:57Your rest is productive. Your rest is powerful, actually.
- 4:03And your rest is loud.
- 4:05Don't ask for permission to rest. So let yourself drift without the guilt,
- 4:11without the shame, no need to hold it all together.
- 4:15Just breathe and just be. And hey, if this gave you a little bit of peace tonight, save this.
- 4:23Okay, come back to it anytime you need. You don't have to do life alone in your head.
- 4:28This little moment, it's here for you anytime you need it.
- 4:33You are enough. And I'll be right here the next time you need to hear this. Good night, friends.
- 4:40You're doing awesome and you're doing better than you think. All right. Sleep well.
