Introduction (Emotion: Protection & Inner Peace
Fear often creeps in at night. The weight of the day lingers in your chest, your breath shortens, and your body struggles to relax. The body speaks when the soul seeks shelter, asking not for control, but for trust. Lighting a candle can become a sacred reminder: you are safe, you are protected, you can rest now.
Connection with the Body

Think of a night when sleep felt impossible, your shoulders heavy, your jaw tense, your heart restless. These are not random sensations. The body maps our emotions: fear in the stomach, tension in the chest, unease in the skin. Listening to these signals is the first step to finding peace. Lighting a candle is more than creating light: it is allowing your body to trust again. Its warm glow becomes a guardian presence, a gentle flame reminding you that you are safe.
Ritual Practice
Light your Night Guardian candle in a safe and quiet space. Sit comfortably and place one hand over your heart. Observe the flame as you breathe with it.
Inhale for 4 counts.
Hold for 2 counts.
Exhale for 6 counts.
With each exhale, imagine fear leaving your body and a shield of peace surrounding you. Let the flame guard your rest.
