Restlessness often appears at night. Thoughts run in circles, your breath feels shallow, your chest heavy. The body speaks loudly when the soul is overwhelmed, and all it asks for is a pause. A small ritual, like lighting a candle, can become the doorway into silence. It is a reminder that dreams begin not with noise, but with stillness.
Think of a night when your mind felt too loud, your body restless, your shoulders heavy. These are not random sensations. The body maps our emotions: worry in the chest, fear in the stomach, tension in the neck. Listening to these signals is the first step to healing. Lighting a candle is more than creating light it, is giving your body permission to let go. Its warm glow becomes a gentle presence that guides you back to yourself and into the quiet space where dreams are born.
Light your candle Dream Awake in a quiet space. Sit comfortably and place one hand over your chest. As you observe the flame, let your breath follow its rhythm.
Inhale for 4 counts.
Hold for 2 counts.
Exhale for 6 counts.
With each exhale, imagine releasing the thoughts that have been pressing on your mind. Let silence embrace you.
My dreams begin in silence.
I release the noise within me.
In stillness, I awaken my creativity.
