  Speaker 1: Mm hmm. Make yourself comfortable and close your eyes. Take
• 0:27
  a deep breath in through your nose and slowly and
• 0:32
  gently breathe out through your mouth. Again, deep breath in,
• 0:44
  and slowly and gently breathe out through your mouth. One
• 0:53
  more time, deep breath in and slowly and gently doubt
• 1:00
  through your mouth. Now just relax and let your breathing
• 1:06
  come back to its normal rhythm. Now this time, take
• 1:15
  another slow, deep breath in, and as you breathe out,
• 1:20
  let go of any tension. Feel yourself sinking into the
• 1:28
  surface you're resting on, becoming still, becoming more comfortable and
• 1:35
  more relaxed. Take another slow, deep breath in, and as
• 1:44
  you breathe out, release all of your thoughts and let
• 1:48
  them drift far away. One more time, take another slow,
• 1:57
  deep breath in and know that in this moment, all
• 2:02
  is well in your world, and breathe out. Imagine that
• 2:10
  all the energy you've sent out into the world over
• 2:14
  the last few days is coming gently back to you.
• 2:19
  It's like part of a puzzle, all coming together. Now,
• 2:26
  imagine there is a column of light coming down from
• 2:30
  the sky, and it's surrounding you and protecting you, and
• 2:36
  it goes all the way through you and deep down
• 2:39
  into the earth, all away to the earth's very core.
• 2:48
  This light begins to move around your whole body, and
• 2:52
  it swishes and it sways all around you. It's kind
• 2:57
  of like being in a washing machine, and it's cleaning
• 3:01
  all your energy, and the kind of tickles too, and
• 3:04
  it makes you feel all warm and squidgy inside and out.
• 3:10
  And you think this must be what it's like to
• 3:12
  be in a washing machine, only you are not moving.
• 3:16
  It's the light around you that is. This light is
• 3:23
  clearing your energy at the deepest level, and anything that
• 3:28
  you don't need or don't want is being washed away.
• 3:33
  And all of your worries are simply being washed away.
• 3:42
  Feel this light as it penetrates every part of your body,
• 3:47
  your mind, and your very spirit. Feel your heart beating
• 3:54
  gently in your chest. Your heart is the place where
• 4:00
  you connect deeply with all of the love you have
• 4:03
  inside him. Your heart is the place where all of
• 4:09
  your family and loved ones are connected to you. Your
• 4:14
  friends and pets are there too, even the ones who
• 4:18
  are no longer with you, they too are inside your
• 4:22
  heart forever. Now. Become aware of how you are feeling
• 4:33
  right now. If there are any feelings that you don't
• 4:38
  want or that you don't like, then this light is
• 4:42
  again washing them away, just like a wash me. Seen,
• 4:47
  it does another cycle and washes you again. Now refocus
• 5:00
  on your heart and simply be present with whatever feelings
• 5:04
  you've discovered. If there are still any yucky feelings in there,
• 5:12
  those are the feelings that the washing machine wants to
• 5:15
  clear and make you sparkly clean again. So for one
• 5:22
  more moment, be still and let the washing machine do
• 5:27
  another cycle whilst you just relax and breathe us. Now
• 7:29
  begin to breathe deeply and slowly again, take very full,
• 7:35
  deep breaths. As you breathe in through your nose and
• 7:39
  then out again through your mouth. Place one hand on
• 7:46
  your tummy and notice whether your belly moves in and
• 7:50
  out with your breath. And as you breathe in, let
• 7:57
  your belly expand and push out your hand and let
• 8:02
  your belly relax as you breathe out. Just continue to
• 8:11
  breathe in this deep, even and slow rhythm, and as
• 8:16
  you do, you begin to feel deep feelings of joy
• 8:20
  and happiness, and you feel your hearts well with peace
• 8:25
  and so much love. So just breathe, don't try to
• 8:31
  think about it or control it. Just breathe deeply. Take
• 8:40
  some time to practice this. Now, just breathe deeply and relax,
• 8:48
  feeling all the joy and happiness in the whole world.
• 8:53
  So for a short moment, just breathe. Now focus your
• 9:28
  attention to your heart again, and as you do, you
• 9:34
  become away again of the column of light surrounding you
• 9:38
  and feeling you, and you can feel the wash cycle
• 9:43
  slowly coming to attend. Now, think of the one thing
• 9:51
  in your life you feel grateful for. Maybe it's a
• 9:56
  person in your life or a pet. Feel the happiness
• 10:02
  that this brings to you, and feel how much you
• 10:06
  are loved in return. Focus on that for just a
• 10:11
  short moment. Now focus on your heart again. Simply receive
• 10:44
  all the love coming into your body and into your heart.
• 10:50
  It's inside you, it's outside of you, it's everywhere. Whenever
• 11:00
  you feel a bit yucky, just surround yourself with this
• 11:04
  beautiful golden light and pretend you are in a washing
• 11:08
  machine again, and it will swish and sway all of
• 11:13
  the thoughts you don't need or want. You'll just swish
• 11:17
  them all away, and you feel so peaceful and calm.
• 11:28
  But you also feel so good about yourself because you
• 11:33
  are so very very special. But now it's time to
• 11:40
  return to your day. So take a big, deep breath
• 11:45
  in and slowly and gently breathe out. Again, big deep
• 11:57
  breath in, and slowly and gently breathe out one last time,
• 12:08
  big deep breath in, and slowly and gently breathe out. Now,
• 12:19
  wriggle your fingers and your toes, give a big stretch,
• 12:23
  and slowly open your eyes. And remember, you can come
• 12:29
  back and surround yourself with this beautiful golden light anytime
• 12:34
  you want to. Now, imagine that you are standing on
• 12:50
  a golden sandy beach and you can hear the beautiful
• 12:55
  sounds of the ocean. The sun is shining and there's
• 12:59
  not a cloud in the sky. There's a gentle breeze
• 13:04
  blowing on your face, making your hair move just a
• 13:08
  little bit. The air is so fresh and pure, and
• 13:14
  it feels so good to be here. The air even
• 13:18
  tastes a little bit salty too, and you can even
• 13:22
  feel the spray of the ocean touching your skin and
• 13:26
  making it feel a little bit cooler. So take a deep,
• 13:32
  blissful breath in through your nose, breathing impure cleansing air,
• 13:40
  and now slowly breathe out. Take another deep, blissful breath,
• 13:50
  and again breathing impure cleansing hair, and slowly breathe out
• 13:59
  one last time, take another deep breath of pure cleansing
• 14:05
  air and slowly breathe out, and just allow the sounds
• 14:14
  of the waves to calm your mind and just breathe.
• 14:25
  Let your thoughts just gently drift away, and your thoughts
• 14:32
  becomes so much quieter as you listen to the gentle,
• 14:36
  healing sounds of the waves. As the sounds of the
• 14:41
  ocean just wash over you. Now, imagine yourself standing beneath
• 14:51
  a beautiful waterfall. Feel the water as it cascades all
• 14:58
  over your body, so nice and cooling and so fresh.
• 15:06
  Feel this fresh heathen water. Really feel it as it
• 15:10
  touches your body. Feel a crisp, clean air as it
• 15:16
  refreshes your mind, making all of your thoughts just lovely ones.
• 15:24
  Feel the warmth of the water as it pulses all
• 15:28
  over your body. Feel it as it tingles and makes
• 15:33
  your skin glow and shine when you feel so happy
• 15:38
  right now, As the cascading water falls all over your body,
• 15:47
  it gently removes any and all negativity and all the
• 15:53
  thoughts that you no longer need just get washed away.
• 15:59
  It rinses off all of your worries. It takes with
• 16:04
  it all of the past, allowing you to start having
• 16:07
  lots of fun on this wonderful new day. As you
• 16:14
  stand there, let in the crisp clear water release you
• 16:19
  of all your worries. You feel an overwhelming love and
• 16:26
  your heart swells with immense joy. You feel so excited
• 16:32
  for the new day ahead, and your heart is filled
• 16:36
  full of love for all life, but most of all
• 16:40
  for yourself. For you are a truly special and beautiful being,
• 16:50
  this amazing, wonderful and perfect being, the real you, the
• 16:58
  you who can do anything you want, the you who
• 17:03
  can have the very best life, the you who can
• 17:09
  live your life with peace and happiness. And you feel
• 17:16
  so peaceful right now, so calm, so very relaxed, And
• 17:21
  remember you are safe, you are loved, and you are
• 17:29
  protected always, So for just one more moment, let the cool,
• 17:37
  refreshing water wash over your body and wash away all
• 17:43
  the things that you no longer need and no longer
• 17:47
  save you. Now it's time to return to your day
• 19:11
  feeling brighter, happier, full of love, and joy. So once again,
• 19:20
  breathe in deeply the cool, refreshing air, and then slowly
• 19:28
  and gently breathe out, and you feel refreshed and rejuvenated.
• 19:37
  So again, breathe in the cleansing air of life. Then
• 19:46
  slowly and gently breathe out, and you feel exhilarated and
• 19:52
  truly alive, ready for anything that life throws your way.
• 20:01
  Breathe in deeply, and slowly and gently breathe out. Now,
• 20:12
  regular your fingers, regular your toes, and slowly and gently
• 20:20
  open your eyes, and you are now ready to begin
• 20:25
  your day, knowing that whatever the day brings, you will
• 20:33
  enjoy your day enormously because you feel so happy, so peaceful,
• 20:40
  and so wonderful. Now, imagine that you have swirling energy
• 21:13
  centers in your body, and they are called chakras. The
• 21:20
  first one, the first chakra, is at the base of
• 21:25
  your spine, so it's the first energy center, and its
• 21:30
  color is red. And this chakra spins brightly when you
• 21:37
  feel safe and secure and when you release all of
• 21:41
  your fears. So imagine a soft red mist and see
• 21:49
  it swirling in your mind's eye. Can you see it? Now?
• 21:56
  Breathe in this warm mist, you breathe out, release any
• 22:02
  fears you may have, and you can say to yourself,
• 22:07
  either in your mind or out loud, I am safe,
• 22:14
  I am secure. And imagine this chakra spinning a warm,
• 22:21
  comforting red and flowing freely. Your second chakra is orange,
• 22:33
  and it's located right below your belly button, and it
• 22:38
  spins very brightly when you feel happy, when you feel
• 22:42
  friendly and creative. He also likes it when you release
• 22:47
  any guilt or any blame. So when you feel you
• 22:51
  may have done something wrong, just release it and let
• 22:55
  it go. So breathe in the soft orange mist. See
• 23:03
  it and let it fill your entire body. Focus right
• 23:09
  below your belly button and imagine the swirly bright orange
• 23:14
  color spinning around and around, and just breathe in happiness, playfulness,
• 23:22
  and creativity. It feels so good, doesn't it. Now on
• 23:31
  to the third chakra. This one is a beautiful yellow
• 23:36
  color and it sits right above your tummy. And this
• 23:42
  yellow energy shines brightly with strength and confidence, bravery and motivation.
• 23:51
  So see the swirling mist and breathe in all of
• 23:55
  those things. Just imagine it like a warm ray of
• 23:59
  yellow so unshine. Now we move on to the fourth chakra,
• 24:09
  and this is located just around your heart. This is
• 24:14
  a soft green color, so imagine a soft green, swailing
• 24:20
  mist as it moves around your heart area. This is
• 24:26
  the chacker of love. So as you breathe in this
• 24:31
  beautiful green mist, just release any sadness from your heart.
• 24:40
  As you breathe it in. You breathe in love, kindness, forgiveness,
• 24:46
  and gratitude. Feel it shining so brightly now as your
• 24:53
  heart area fills with all of these wonderful things, and
• 24:58
  it makes you feel so peaceful. The fifth chakra is
• 25:07
  a beautiful blue energy and that rests around your throat area.
• 25:14
  So imagine breathing deeply this beautiful, brave blue mist, and
• 25:22
  it lives around your throat area and it grows bigger
• 25:26
  and bigger as you say to yourself, I can express
• 25:31
  myself and I can say what I think and what
• 25:35
  I feel easily because this chakra flows, and it flows
• 25:43
  when we speak our truth. It flows when we are courageous,
• 25:50
  and it flows when we speak up for ourselves and
• 25:53
  for others. The sixth chakra sits in the middle of
• 26:03
  your forehead and is a deep, purply blue. This is
• 26:09
  your place of intuition. Imagine breathing in this deep, purply blue,
• 26:17
  swirling mist and watch it as it creates a whirlwind
• 26:23
  of swirling color and energy all around you. And this
• 26:30
  chakra shines brightly when we connect with our inner knowing
• 26:36
  it can help us see beyond appearances. It helps us
• 26:42
  to just no things, no things that are true. Finally,
• 26:55
  your crown chakra, the seventh chakra, and it's like a
• 27:01
  beautiful violent flower opening up at the top of your head,
• 27:07
  and it shines so brightly and its radiant energy flows
• 27:13
  all around you. And this chakra helps us to know
• 27:19
  that we are far greater than what we think we are,
• 27:25
  that we are part of the whole universe. Breathe in
• 27:31
  this beautiful violent mist as it swirls all around your body,
• 27:38
  especially around the top of your head. And when this
• 27:42
  chakra is balanced and shining brightly, we feel complete and
• 27:48
  whole again. We feel as one with the universe because
• 27:54
  we truly are. All of these chakras are part of
• 28:03
  who we are, even if we cannot see them with
• 28:06
  our physical eyes, but we can't see them with our
• 28:10
  third eye, our sixth chakra. And you've done really, really well.
• 28:18
  And if you remember to keep your chakras clear with
• 28:23
  your rainbow mist. Just breathing it in, focusing on all
• 28:29
  the good things that each one represents, you will feel amazing.
• 28:38
  But now it's time to return to your day. So
• 28:43
  take a deep breath in and slowly breathe out again.
• 28:56
  Deep breath in, slowly breathe out one last time. Deep
• 29:07
  breath in and slowly breathe out. Now, wriggle your fingers,
• 29:18
  wriggle your toes, stretch your muscles if you want to,
• 29:24
  and slowly and gently open your eyes. Now imagine that
• 29:43
  you are on your own sailing ship, and you are
• 29:47
  the captain. The sea is very calm and a beautiful
• 29:52
  deep blue, just like the sky. And your ship is
• 29:58
  made out of wood and is very strong, And you
• 30:02
  feel the gentle waves of the ocean peacefully rocking you
• 30:06
  up and down, and the air smells fresh and clean.
• 30:15
  Your trusted companion is a wise old parrot, and he
• 30:20
  is right by your side. His name is Barney, and
• 30:25
  together you have had many adventures. Barney is your best friend,
• 30:32
  and he helps you if you need help or advice.
• 30:36
  Barney is always there for you. As your ship sails
• 30:43
  merrily along, you see a family of cheerful dolphins swimming
• 30:48
  alongside the ship. They are very beautiful and very very
• 30:54
  fast swimmers. You see them leap out of the water
• 30:58
  and dive back in with a big splash, and it
• 31:01
  kind of sounds as if they're laughing with fun. They
• 31:05
  are amazing creatures. And you hear the sea beds playfully
• 31:11
  singing their song as they fly on by. Some of
• 31:15
  them hover around your ship and just rest on the sails.
• 31:21
  They too, are your friends. When you look up at
• 31:29
  the rich blue sky, you see puffy white clouds smiling
• 31:33
  down at you. Notice how peaceful it feels. It feels good,
• 31:40
  doesn't it. I'll take a deep breath in and slowly
• 31:49
  breathe out, And as you breathe out, notice how refreshing
• 31:56
  the air feels. Notice how it feels as it enters
• 32:01
  your body. High up in the sky, you can see
• 32:09
  the North Star, and it's the brightest star in the sky,
• 32:14
  and it's always visible day and night, and it's there
• 32:18
  for you to guide you to wherever you would like
• 32:22
  to go. It has always guided sailors throughout history. It
• 32:29
  has helped them to travel to where they were going.
• 32:34
  And the North Star is guiding you too. It's guiding
• 32:39
  you to a very special place called Treasure Island. You
• 32:50
  arrive at Treasure Island and you release the big, sturdy
• 32:55
  anchor of your ship, and it gently and swiftly glad
• 33:00
  hides and too through the water, down and down, even
• 33:05
  further down, past the corals and the colorful fish, past
• 33:11
  the rocks, and all the way down to the ocean floor.
• 33:18
  The anchor is so strong and grounded, and it feels
• 33:23
  like it's connected to the very center of the earth.
• 33:30
  Feel how scentered and steady the anchor holds your ship.
• 33:40
  Step off your beautiful sailing ship and go and explore
• 33:44
  the island. As you walk along, you see beautiful green
• 33:54
  palm trees swaying in the gentle breeze, and the air
• 34:00
  smells very fresh and crisp, and the sand beneath your
• 34:05
  feet feels warm and soft, and you can feel it
• 34:10
  moving between your toes. Can you feel it? What does
• 34:18
  it feel like? You look around you as you walk,
• 34:27
  and you notice a hidden cove amongst the trees. You
• 34:33
  see something shiny and glistening in the bright sunlight, and
• 34:37
  you wonder what it is. As you come closer, you
• 34:44
  see it, a big, heavy, treasure chest.
• 34:47
  Speaker 2: Wow, a treasure chest, A treasure chest, a shiny golden
• 34:54
  buckles and hinges, and the wood that's made of is
• 34:58
  a beautiful gold brown.
• 35:03
  Speaker 1: You lift the lid on the chest to see what's
• 35:05
  inside it, and you hear a slight creaking sound as
• 35:12
  if the chest hasn't been opened for quite some time.
• 35:18
  There are many precious jewels inside it. All of them
• 35:23
  are your favorite memories. How wonderful is that you see
• 35:31
  a bright and shiny golden cup and you pick it
• 35:34
  up and see that it's overflowing with your favorite feelings,
• 35:41
  all the love you have for your family and friends,
• 35:46
  even your animal friends too. You see many precious crystals,
• 35:53
  and inside of each of those crystals there's a picture
• 35:58
  of all the people animals that you love and cherish.
• 36:03
  And this makes you feel so happy. This treasure chest
• 36:10
  contains everything that makes you feel good about yourself and others.
• 36:16
  It holds all of your memories. This really is a
• 36:24
  very special treasure chest, and it's all yours. There is
• 36:32
  also fabulous golden mirror with a very ornate handle, and
• 36:39
  you pick up the mirror and you look at it
• 36:42
  and you notice something very special. This mirror shows you
• 36:49
  who you really are. It shows you the real and
• 36:55
  very beautiful you, the you you don't get see very
• 37:00
  often that you on the inside. You see a very

  love for all beings, all people, all animals, all plants,
• 37:23
  and of course for yourself too, and you feel the
• 37:29
  love for the entire universe. This mirror also shows you
• 37:39
  all of the gifts and talents that you have, the
• 37:43
  ones that make you very special, because you truly are
• 37:47
  a very special and very loving person, and you are
• 37:52

  how special you are. Just remember all of the people
• 38:26
  and animals that you love, remember their faces, and see
• 38:32
  the wonderful smiles they have when you are with them. U.
• 40:38
  Now it's time to return to your wonderful sailing ship.
• 40:45
  You make your way out of the cove and through
• 40:48
  the trees, and you climb back aboard your ship and
• 40:53
  raise the anchor, hearing all the squeaks and groans as
• 40:58
  it comes back up. Your friends, the dolphins and the
• 41:04
  seabirds are waiting for you to bring you back home again.
• 41:12
  As you set sail to return home, you know that
• 41:16
  you can always come back to this special place any
• 41:20
  time you wish. So thank your friends, the dolphins and
• 41:26
  the seabirds for being here with you on your journey,
• 41:32
  and thank yourself for the wonderful experience you've just shared.
• 41:39
  And you sail off into the distance with the North
• 41:42
  Star as your guide again, and the breeze ruffles your hair,
• 41:49
  and the sun is shining brightly, and you feel wonderful
• 41:54
  and refreshed and so happy. M hm. So take a
• 42:02
  deep breath in and slowly and gently breathe out again.
• 42:13
  Deep breath in, and slowly and gently breathe out one
• 42:23
  last time. Deep breath in, and slowly and gently breathe out. Now,
• 42:33
  wrigle your fingers, wriggle your toes, give a big stretch,
• 42:39
  and whenever you are ready, slowly and gently open your eyes.
