The Dreaming Tree

Take a slow breath in… and let it fall gently out.
Tonight, we make a circle of courage—soft as moonlight, strong as love.
In this circle, we place our day:
the laughter, the mistakes, the trying, the tears.
We place them all in the center,
and we whisper, “Thank you for what you taught me.”
Now breathe again.
Around you is love—around you is light.
You are safe to rest.
The stars have taken their place,
and your heart knows the way home.
Sleep comes gently to the brave.
Take a slow breath in…
Feel the air filling your chest, like moonlight pouring into a calm lake.
Exhale…
“I release the day.”
Inhale…
Imagine soft starlight wrapping around your shoulders like a warm blanket.
Exhale…
“I am safe to rest.”
Inhale…
See tiny lights floating in your heart—every kindness, every smile you gave today.
Exhale…
“I have done enough.”
Inhale…
Imagine your breath rising to meet the stars, joining the courage of all children everywhere.
Exhale…
“I am brave, even when I am still.”
Inhale…
Now place your hand on your heart and whisper:
“This circle is made of love.
It cannot be broken.
Exhale…
Tonight, I rest in peace.
Tomorrow, I rise in light.”
Inhale…
Picture golden roots growing from your feet into the earth—the Dreaming Tree holding you steady.
Exhale…
“I am held.”
Sleep comes gently to the brave.
