1
00:00:01,280 --> 00:00:10,480
Let's begin by consciously 
turning off the body, and when 

2
00:00:10,480 --> 00:00:18,120
you're ready, allow your eyes to
slowly close like the sunsets. 

3
00:00:22,080 --> 00:00:28,920
Calmly bring your awareness to 
rest with this verse and prayer.

4
00:00:31,920 --> 00:00:36,720
I am the Good Shepherd. 
The Good Shepherd lays down his 

5
00:00:36,720 --> 00:00:50,310
life for the sheep. 
And again, I am the Good 

6
00:00:50,310 --> 00:00:54,390
Shepherd. 
The Good Shepherd lays down his 

7
00:00:54,390 --> 00:01:10,480
life for the sheep. 
Now bring your attention to the 

8
00:01:10,480 --> 00:01:23,390
way the body feels. 
Notice your breath. 

9
00:01:31,500 --> 00:01:35,340
Allow the inhales to expand the 
body. 

10
00:01:40,140 --> 00:01:43,580
Notice how the exhales make you 
feel. 

11
00:01:58,080 --> 00:02:01,920
Feel the body relax and become 
heavier. 

12
00:02:19,050 --> 00:02:38,250
Relax the corners of the eyes. 
Soften the forehead down the 

13
00:02:38,250 --> 00:03:01,480
front of the face. 
Allow the neck to relax and the 

14
00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:05,080
shoulders to fall away from the 
ears. 

15
00:03:19,110 --> 00:03:35,000
Relax the temples. 
Feel the weight of the body so 

16
00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:50,000
the arms become heavy. 
The legs are becoming heavy. 

17
00:03:58,240 --> 00:04:25,920
Feel the bones become heavy. 
Letting the breath become 

18
00:04:25,920 --> 00:04:43,960
natural, 
allow the whole body to soften 

19
00:04:45,000 --> 00:05:15,000
and release. 
Notice how good it feels just to

20
00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:24,890
breathe. 
Allow your breath to make the 

21
00:05:24,890 --> 00:05:42,980
body feel heavy. 
Let the body relax a little more

22
00:05:43,420 --> 00:05:59,400
into your bed. 
And on your next inhale, begin 

23
00:05:59,400 --> 00:06:11,440
to count the breath. 
One on the inhale and two on the

24
00:06:11,440 --> 00:06:23,560
exhale, three. 
On the next inhale and four on 

25
00:06:23,560 --> 00:06:33,440
the next exhale, counting U to 
10 and then starting over again.

26
00:07:19,720 --> 00:07:26,920
If you lose track of the breath,
it's OK, just start over again. 

27
00:07:28,240 --> 00:08:10,320
Counting from 1:00. 
There's nowhere to go, nowhere 

28
00:08:10,320 --> 00:08:16,160
to be. 
We're just here counting the 

29
00:08:16,160 --> 00:08:35,640
breath 
on the next exhale. 

30
00:08:36,520 --> 00:08:42,240
Allow the breath to relax and 
become natural. 

31
00:09:01,040 --> 00:09:09,400
Notice how the body is feeling. 
It might feel good, or it might 

32
00:09:09,400 --> 00:09:14,120
not. 
Either way, it's OK. 

33
00:09:35,680 --> 00:09:49,740
There are no expectations. 
And now for a moment or two, let

34
00:09:49,740 --> 00:10:07,990
your mind relax. 
Take this verse with you. 

35
00:10:11,270 --> 00:10:16,270
I am the Good Shepherd. 
The Good Shepherd lays down his 

36
00:10:16,270 --> 00:10:33,400
life for the sheep. 
God, I know you're always with 

37
00:10:33,400 --> 00:10:37,880
me. 
Thank you for all of your 

38
00:10:37,880 --> 00:10:44,520
blessings. 
Help me to relax and let go in 

39
00:10:44,520 --> 00:10:50,080
your presence. 
I trust your plan for my life.
