Hey there, Jen here, and this is a happy bit. I have been sitting here for about two or three

minutes, wondering what I should say to you. And in the midst of that process, I look over at the

calendar on my wall and I see these words. My bed is a safe place. And I remember, I am feeling

tired. I've been yawning. Am I imagining that it says that? I look again. My bed is a safe place. Oh, it's a sign. This calendar happens to be from Louise Hay, and she is a smart woman. Beneath those words, my bed is a safe place. I read, I prepare myself for sleep by doing something

special that helps me calm down. I might use these affirmations. Every corner of my world is a safe place.

Even in the dark of night, when I sleep, I am safe. I know that tomorrow will take care of itself.

My dreams are dreams of joy.

I love waking up. What great thoughts to go to bed with, right? I know that tomorrow will take care of itself. I want to challenge you to just go enjoy your bed again. I think this is the third time I've

challenged you to do this. And I know you're going to love my advice because we all love our beds, but you don't just need to sleep there.

Try doing some affirmations. I like to recommend that you even do some meditation before you get out of

bed because once your feet hit the floor, all bets are off. Your life can become reactive rather than just proactive

once you're out of bed and the kids come in or your spouse needs something. So make your

bed more than just a place of sleep. Make it a sacred sanctuary. Time of prayer or thinking of a

higher power, meditation, affirmations.

So many good things can take place when you're cuddling underneath that down comforter.

All right. Go get in bed.

Your bed is a safe place.

And I would love to hear some of the fun you have there, but not that kind of fun.

You know what I'm talking about.

Some of the, I'll stop there.

Make it a great day and a great night. Take care.
