In a busy, hectic and often overstimulating world, it can be so difficult to focus on the now. I for one have a hard time bringing myself into the present moment, and so I hope this short meditation helps you to pause for a little while, and cherish the beauty of today.

Tonight we will focus on developing confidence and self-love through repeated YOU ARE affirmations. These will continue through your sleep, and seep into your subconscious mind. Relax your body and calm your mind with a gentle sleep talk down, followed by a relaxing breathing exercise before we begin our affirmations.

It’s always been a daydream of mine to take a nap inside Bag End while listening to the sounds of Bilbo scribbling away in his journal and sifting through maps and papers. I imagine the echo of spring birds drifting into his study through an open window, complemented by the soothing crackle of a log fire and the gentle ticking of an old clock. I finally managed to turn this daydream into a nap sleep story. I really hope you enjoy this short rest in Bilbo’s study!

You could enjoy this story as a nap meditation during the day, or right before bed on an evening, whatever works for you.

As a mere muggle - or so you think - you find yourself in King’s Cross Station amid the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Suddenly you discover a blank piece of paper in your pocket. Right before your eyes, the paper transforms into a magical train ticket; a one-way ticket aboard the Hogwarts Express, bound for the enchanting Hogwarts castle, where you are destined to go.

This journey is unique, for tonight, you will be able to fall asleep on the Hogwarts Express, with the sound of the steam train running along the tracks through the night, and guarded by a new companion. When you wake in the morning, Hogwarts will be waiting.
