Guided meditation script for sleep to help you relax every muscle in your body. This script was written by a professional meditation therapist who will guide you through a series of breathing and relaxation exercises to lull you into a long night’s sleep.

Relaxing your muscles one by one will calm your nerves and help you fall asleep by triggering a relaxation response in your body.

When your muscles are tense, your body's stress response is activated, leading to increased heart rate, blood pressure, and anxiety.

By relaxing each muscle group, you can break this cycle and promote physical and mental relaxation, which can help you drift off to sleep more easily.

You can use this guided meditation script to create your own meditation audio or video for commercial use and for sale. Please choose the "Professional / Business" pricing option from the menu above.

If you're making your own guided meditations, consider adding some relaxing meditation music.

Muscle Relaxation (Mediation Script For Sleep)

Make sure you are in a very comfortable position and that you will not be disturbed... You can listen to this session at any time. Be it in the day, when you can catch a break, or at night, when you are ready to float off into a long night’s sleep.

[Pause for 3 seconds]

Take a large breath in, pulling in as much air as you can… and just let it go.

[Pause for 3 seconds]

Allow yourself another full and beautiful breath… letting it go without pushing the air out too hard.

[Pause for 3 seconds]

Take one more breath, in your own pace… as full as you can… holding it for a moment… and let the air go.

[Pause for 3 seconds]

Nice.

Taking a few big breaths whenever you are ready to rest is now your priority.

[Pause for 5 seconds]

Begin to focus on your right palm… Relax your right palm and hand… relax each finger, one by one… relax your right wrist… your forearm… your elbow… relax your right bicep and entire upper arms… relax your right shoulder and down to your right hip, relaxing it too… you relax your right leg all the way down to your right ankle and foot… each tow on your right foot slowly let go completely… bring your awareness up now to the right side of your neck, relaxing it… allow any sounds that you hear to feel like tiny waves of relaxation going into your right ear… the entire right side of your head fully relaxes… Your right brain relaxes, allowing creativity to be fully accessible… Your entire right side is fully calm and relaxed… Sleep is easy for you when you feel this relaxed…

[Pause for 5 seconds]
