and while you relax, you can imagine being at the top of a magnificent stairway,
and while you are at the top of this stairway, I'll count from ten down to
one and with every number you can imagine going down towards the bottom.
Ten, at the top of the stairs ready to go down into an ever, deeper sleep
Nine, another step takes you further down, as if in a cloud of peace, a sweet and relaxing cloud.
Eight even more towards the bottom, further down, in an ever-deepening feeling, falling even more asleep.
Seven, seven is your relaxing number; and every time you hear it you will relax even more.
Six, another step, another step downwards, towards the bottom.
Five, almost completely asleep, cradled in a feeling of deep peace
Four, another relaxing step; when we get to the bottom of the staircase you will be completely asleep.
Three, let yourself be cradled by your feelings, sinking even further.
Two, a step away from being completely asleep, an ever more pleasing feeling.
One, completely asleep, in a feeling of complete wellness
Zero, further down than the bottom, calm, asleep and at peace with yourself.
Now... you feel emotionally, spiritually, and intellectually well.
Now I'll count from 3 to 1 and when you awake you will feel relaxed and well.
3 you feel well
2 you have a feeling of happiness
1 Open your eyes and smile!
