It's the middle of the night and you're awake.

That's fine.

Sometimes it happens.

There may be some release of tension in your system going on that's so strong that it

woke you up.

Know that it's a good thing that your body is throwing off stress and tension.

It could be that there's some very strong emotions present now.

Simply allow them to be there.

But being fully present eventually will become less intense and dissolve.

If there's strong emotions let yourself feel them in your body.

Feel them as bodily sensations.

It's natural if you're feeling emotional that your mind will start to try to explain it

and try to do something about it.

But it's the middle of the night.

Everything you get blown out of proportion and your mind can misinterpret things.

Just know that that's going on.

This is just the time for rest.

Simply be present to whatever is going on.

Not trying to do anything about it.

After some time it will just naturally subside.

And when you let go of effort it's rusted for your system.

So even if you're awake know that your body is getting deep rest.
