I was thinking about starting tonight's episode by sharing a personal story about disappointment, but honestly I have so many to choose from. I have been disappointed by people, and by places, and by my complete inability to learn the guitar, and also by beautifully wrapped Christmas presents that so often turn out to be socks. And these small disappointments can actually make us smile in hindsight.They become stories we tell, minor frustrations that fade quickly into amusing memories. But then there are the deeper disappointments, the ones that cut much closer to the bone, like being disappointed by people we thought were friends, having opportunities we counted on simply vanish, and receiving news that changes everything we thought we knew about our future. These disappointments don't just sting, they hurt, they really hurt.And that hurt doesn't stay neatly contained in our minds, it settles into our bodies like a physical weight. You might feel it like a heaviness in your chest, a tight knot in your stomach, or that particular constriction in your throat that comes when you're trying not to cry. And when we finally lie down at night, hoping for the relief that sleep can bring, disappointment often follows us there too. It keeps our minds churning, replaying what went wrong, what it all means about us and our future. Tonight I want to show you that it's possible to release some of the emotional weight from your body and your mind, to find comfort, to find peace, and yes to find sleep. I'm not going to tell you that disappointment won't hurt anymore, because sometimes we need to feel that hurt, to honor what mattered to us.But the sharp edges can be softened, the weight can be lightened, and rest can come. We'll do this tonight through gentle relaxation and hypnotic visualization. But first, as always, please make sure you're somewhere safe to fall asleep.This episode is designed to guide you into deep rest, so you want to be in your comfortable bed, not anywhere you need to stay alert. And a brief reminder that following this show is the best way to support what we're creating together. And thank you so much for your comments and reviews, there's nothing better than hearing from you.Your words and support mean probably more than you know. But now, find the most comfortable position you can. Adjust your pillows and shift your body until everything feels just right.Take a slow deep breath in through your nose, filling your lungs completely, and then exhale slowly through your mouth, releasing any tension from this day. Listen carefully to my voice now. My voice will be your guide, leading you deeper and deeper into relaxation.If you hear other sounds around you, maybe traffic outside or someone moving in another room, simply notice these sounds and then gently return your attention to my voice. Let my words and my voice become your anchor as we journey together toward rest. Take another deep breath in and out, feeling your body beginning to settle into the surface beneath you, and keep breathing in and out.Let's begin to release the tension you've been carrying. Notice any tightness around your forehead, around your eyes, and your jaw. With your next exhale, feel all those small muscles softening and letting go.Your forehead becomes smooth, your eyelids grow heavy, and your jaw releases any tightness. Move your attention down to your neck and shoulders, places where we often store stress and disappointment. Feel the weight of your head sinking into your pillow.With each breath out, let your shoulders drop further away from your ears. Your arms become heavy and relaxed, your hands resting gently. Continue this gentle release through your entire body.Feel your chest expanding and contracting. With each easy breath, your back muscles melting into the mattress beneath you, your hips and legs growing heavy. Let every part of you settle into complete relaxation.With each exhale, you sink a little deeper, feel a little heavier, and drift a little further from the concerns of the day. Keep breathing slowly and deeply. Notice the profound relaxation that has settled over your entire body.Your eyelids are growing very heavy now. If they're not already closed, let them close gently and stay closed. Feel how good it is to simply rest here, your body supported and safe.And now, join me on a special journey, one designed to help you process and release any disappointment you've been carrying. Imagine yourself settling into a comfortable seat aboard a vintage sleeper train. The compartment around you is warm and inviting, with soft amber lighting casting gentle shadows on polished wood paneling.Rich burgundy fabric covers the seats, worn smooth by countless passengers who have traveled this route before you. The windows are large and clear, offering an unobstructed view of the countryside rolling past in the gathering desk. Feel the gentle rocking motion of the train as it moves along the tracks.The rhythm is soothing and steady, a soft click-clack that creates its own peaceful soundtrack. Your seat supports you perfectly, molding to your body in all the right places. The armrests are smooth and cool beneath your hands, and the headrest cradles your neck with just the right amount of cushioning.Outside, the evening sky is deepening from pale purple to a rich indigo. The train's headlamp cuts through the growing darkness ahead, illuminating the tracks that stretch into the night. You're traveling toward something you've wanted for a long time.Picture that destination now, whatever it is that you've been hoping for, working toward, dreaming about. See it clearly in your mind. Feel that familiar flutter of anticipation in your chest, that sense of excitement mixed with nervousness.This is it, you think. This train is taking you exactly where you need to go. You can see the other passengers in the reflection of your window.Some reading, others gazing out at the passing scenery. There's something comforting about sharing this journey with strangers, all of you traveling toward your own hopes and dreams. As you travel, you begin to notice landmarks that signal you're getting closer to your destination. You lean forward in your seat, pressing your face closer to the cool glass of the window. The anticipation builds with each mile, each familiar sight that tells you you're almost there. But then, something changes.The train begins to slow, and at first you think this is normal. The natural deceleration as you approach your station. But as you get closer, you realize the train isn't slowing enough to stop.The click-clack rhythm, which had decreased, begins to pick up again. Through the window, you can see your destination ahead. There it is, the place you've been traveling toward, the outcome you've been hoping for.You can see it clearly now, so close. But with growing realization, you understand that you're not going to stop there. The train is going to pass right by.Watch as your destination comes into view, and then slowly, inevitably, begins to slide past. Feel that sinking sensation in your stomach, that moment of disbelief, followed by the sharp sting of disappointment. The place you thought you were going, the thing you wanted so much, is now growing smaller and more distant.Sit back in your seat, and allow yourself to feel whatever comes up. The disappointment, the confusion, or that particular ache that comes when something you've counted on doesn't materialize. Notice what your mind wants to tell you about this moment.Listen to those thoughts without judgment, just observing what arises. The train continues on its journey, carrying you away from what you thought you wanted and into the unknown night. The landscape outside has changed now.What was familiar has given way to terrain you don't recognize. The darkness seems deeper here, more mysterious. As you sit with your disappointment, you become aware that you have choices about how to spend the rest of your journey.You notice there are other seats available in your car. Some offer different views, different angles on the passing world. You realize you can move if you want to.You can choose a new perspective, standing up slowly, feeling the gentle sway of the train beneath your feet. Walk a few steps to a seat across the aisle, one that faces in a slightly different direction. Settle into this new spot and look out the window again.From this angle, the landscape appears different. What seemed dark and foreboding from your previous seat now reveals subtle beauty. Moonlight catches on a distant river, turning it into a ribbon of silver. Your new seat is even more comfortable than the last. The cushions seem to embrace you, offering better support for your tired body. You begin to understand something important.You can't control where the train goes, but you can control how you choose to experience the journey. Beside your new seat, you notice a soft woolen blanket folded neatly on the empty seat beside you. It's the most beautiful shade of blue-gray, like storm clouds lit by moonlight. As you unfold it, you discover words embroidered along its edge in silver thread. Be gentle with yourself. You wrap this blanket around your shoulders and immediately feel its warmth.The fabric is incredibly soft, like being embraced by kindness. Under this blanket of self-compassion, you begin to feel your harsh inner voice growing quieter. The thoughts that wanted to criticize you, to tell you that missing your destination was somehow your fault, begin to lose their power.Instead, wrapped in this gentle warmth, you remember that you are human. You are doing your best. You deserve kindness, especially from yourself.The train rocks gently as it navigates a curve in the tracks. This motion is becoming more soothing now, more rhythmic. Your eyelids feel heavier as the warmth of the blanket, and the steady movement of the train begin to relax your entire body. You hear footsteps in the aisle and look up to see the conductor approaching. He's an older gentleman with kind eyes and a gentle smile, and in his hands he carries a steaming mug that gives off the most wonderful aroma. Something warm and spiced, like cinnamon and vanilla, with hints of honey.Complimentary refreshment, he says softly, offering you the mug. For travelers whose journeys have taken unexpected turns, his voice is warm, and understanding, without a trace of pity. This is someone who has seen countless passengers deal with misconnections and altered plans.He knows that sometimes the most interesting journeys happen when you don't arrive where you expect to go. You accept the warm mug gratefully, wrapping your hands around its ceramic surface. And when you take your first sip, the liquid warms you from the inside out.It tastes like comfort and possibility, like new beginnings distilled into something you can hold and savor. You know, the conductor says, settling into the seat across from you for a moment. In my 40 years working on this line, I've learned something interesting.The passengers who miss their intended stops often end up exactly where they need to be. Not where they plan to be, but where they need to be. He pauses, looking out the window at the passing night.Sometimes life has a different route in mind. One we couldn't have imagined when we first bought our ticket. You begin to consider the possibility that missing your station might not be the disaster you initially thought.Maybe there's something to learn from this detour. Maybe there's feedback here about what you truly value. What really matters to you.The intensity of your disappointment tells you something important about how much you care, how much you're willing to invest in your dreams. The conductor rises with a gentle nod and continues down the aisle, leaving you with your warm drink and your shifting perspective. You realize that this unexpected journey might bring you things you might never have discovered if you'd stopped. New experiences, new insights, perhaps even better destinations you didn't know existed. Outside the window, the landscape continues to unfold in the moonlight. You can see how vast it is, how many different places exist in the world.Your one destination is just a tiny point in an enormous network of possibilities. There are countless other stations ahead, countless other opportunities waiting to be discovered. The train begins to climb now, ascending into higher country.Stars emerge more brilliantly in the darker sky at this altitude. As you gain elevation, you gain perspective. Your disappointment is still there, but it no longer dominates the entire landscape of your experience.It has become one element in a much larger picture. You settle deeper into your seat, pulling the soft blanket more snugly around you. The train's rhythm has become hypnotic now. The gentle rocking motion, working like a lullaby to relax your body and quiet your mind. Your breathing has slowed to match the steady pace of the wheels on the tracks. Each breath in brings acceptance.Each breath out releases the tight grip of disappointment. The warm drink has left you feeling drowsy and content. Your eyelids are growing heavy as the train continues its journey through the night.The motion beneath you feels like being rocked and carrying arms, like being held by something larger and wiser than yourself. Through the window, you can see other trains in the distance. Their lights moving across the dark landscape like slow-moving stars. Each one carries passengers with their own stories, their own missed connections, and unexpected destinations. You are part of something larger than your individual disappointment. You are connected to every person who has ever had to change course, who has ever discovered that life has different plans than the ones they made. The realization brings a profound sense of comfort. Throughout history, countless people have sat where you are sitting now, dealing with dashed hopes and altered dreams. Many of them went on to discover that their greatest successes, their deepest loves, their most meaningful accomplishments, grew directly from their disappointments.The Nobel Prize winners who were rejected by universities, the entrepreneurs whose first businesses failed spectacularly, and the couples who met only after other relationships ended. Your disappointment connects you to this vast human experience of resilience and redirection.
You are not alone in this feeling. You are not the first person to have your plans derailed, and you won't be the last. But you are also part of the equally vast human experience of adaptation and growth, of finding new paths when old ones close.
The train begins to descend now, winding through mountain passes where the air is softer and warmer. The motion rocks you gently from side to side, and you can feel your body releasing the last of its tension. Your shoulders drop away from your ears. Your jaw relaxes. Your hands uncurl and rest softly on the warm blanket.
The clickety-clack of the wheels has become a gentle lullaby, steady and soothing. Your disappointment is still there, but it has transformed into something softer now. Instead of sharp pain, it has become a tender understanding of how much you care, how deeply you feel, how willing you are to hope and dream and try again. This capacity for disappointment is actually evidence of your courage, your openness to life's possibilities.
Rest now in the knowledge that this moment of disappointment is not the end of your story. It is one chapter in a much longer book Tomorrow will bring new destinations, new opportunities, new chances to discover what you're truly capable of. But for tonight, you can simply rest in the gentle motion of the train carried safely through the night toward whatever waits ahead.
Let the rhythm of the tracks lull you deeper into relaxation. Feel how the train holds you securely as it travels through the darkness. You are safe here. You are cared for. You are exactly where you need to be in this moment, traveling toward a future that may be different from what you planned but is no less full of potential.
Sleep now, knowing that disappointment is not defeat. Sleep knowing that every ending makes space for a new beginning. Sleep trusting that life's unexpected routes often lead to the most beautiful destinations.
When you wake, the disappointment may still be there, but it will no longer have the same sharp edges. You'll carry with you the gentle wisdom of tonight's journey, the knowledge that you are resilient,, and that every ending makes space for something new to begin.
