  Speaker 1: Hm. Find a nice comfortable place to lay down, making
• 0:26
  sure you are nice and warm but not too hot.
• 0:32
  Take a deep breath in through your nose and slowly
• 0:40
  and gently breathe out through your mouth. One more time,
• 0:51
  deep breath in, and slowly and gently breathe out through
• 1:00
  your mouth. And every time you breathe in, you are
• 1:08
  breathing in deep relaxation, making you feel all warm and
• 1:15
  fuzzy inside. Now tense up your whole body really tightly
• 1:26
  and hold it like that for just a few seconds,
• 1:32
  and now let go. Feel your legs going all limb
• 1:38
  and soft as your muscles relax, Feel your whole body
• 1:46
  softening and just gently relaxing. So one more time, tighten
• 1:57
  up all of your muscles really, really tightly, bawl your
• 2:04
  hands into fists and a hold for just a few seconds,
• 2:12
  and now let go. That's really really good. Now you
• 2:25
  are feeling deeply, deeply relaxed, deeply relaxed, calm, and ever
• 2:35
  so peaceful. Now imagine that you are floating on a soft, fluffy,
• 2:43
  white cloud. Feel the surface beneath you becoming softer, more
• 2:53
  cloud like, all spongy and light. Now, to your amazement,
• 3:02
  you begin to feel this amazingly soft cloud rising out
• 3:08
  of the surface you are on and it's surrounding you
• 3:12
  in its protective support, and your body feels so light
• 3:20
  and weightless, almost as if you could just float away
• 3:26
  on your cloud. You feel your cloud starting to rise
• 3:33
  now and lift you with it. Let the cloud rise
• 3:40
  a little bit faurther, still taking you with it. See
• 3:47
  the walls and the ceiling around you disappearing as you
• 3:52
  float into the beautiful sunny sky, just drifting on your cloud.
• 4:03
  You can feel the cloud beneath you. It's very soft
• 4:08
  and very comfortable, and it supports your body with no
• 4:14
  effort at all. Notice each place where your body is
• 4:22
  touching the cloud. Feel how soft and comfortable this lovely
• 4:28
  cloud is. It's almost like you are floating in the air,
• 4:36
  just floating and drifting wherever you wish to go. Notice
• 4:45
  how your cloud feels. It might be a little bit
• 4:50
  cool and moist, kind of how like fog feels, but
• 4:57
  your body is warm and very light. But you can
• 5:02
  still feel it sinking into your lovely cloud, and it
• 5:07
  feels wonderful. You are floating high up in the sky,
• 5:19
  and the sky above you is bright blue, and it's
• 5:22
  so sunny and inviting. You are warm and comfortable, and
• 5:30
  you are warmed by the sun's rays shining down peacefully
• 5:35
  upon you. Can you feel the sun. There are other
• 5:46
  clouds in the sky floating gently. See them lazily passing
• 5:54
  by far above you, just drifting along. Your cloud can
• 6:06
  float wherever you choose, and if you enjoy being high up,
• 6:14
  you can let your cloud rise even higher up into
• 6:17
  the sky. It's very safe, it's very calming, and it's
• 6:25
  very relaxing. And you are so relaxed, so peaceful and calm,
• 6:33
  floating on your cloud, just drifting along with nowhere special
• 6:42
  you have to be. Have a little look around you
• 6:56
  as you float on your cloud. And if you look below,
• 7:04
  you can see the green green grass far down and
• 7:10
  from up here on your cloud, the grass looks like
• 7:14
  a lovely, soft green carpet. You can see some trees
• 7:25
  and you can see their leaves whispering in the gentle breeze.
• 7:30
  Can you hear what the leaves are saying? You can
• 7:43
  see country roads, you can see hills. How does it
• 7:50
  feel to be floating.
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: On your cloud.
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: And feel it swaying gently like a boat bobbing along
• 8:04
  on the water. Does it drift in the breeze. Can
• 8:11
  you feel the movement as you gently float on your cloud?
• 8:19
  Floating on your cloud, just drifting along, with no other
• 8:24
  purpose than to feel relaxed and peaceful and so very happy.
• 8:41
  Continue floating on your cloud, drifting along, rising even higher
• 8:49
  if you want to, enjoying all there is to see,
• 8:54
  and up here the air is so clean, so fresh.
• 9:01
  Look up at the beautiful sky. The clouds that were
• 9:06
  high above you are much much closer now. Some of
• 9:12
  them are so close to you that you can almost
• 9:16
  touch them, but not quite. You notice something coming towards
• 9:24
  your cloud, but you can't quite see yet what it is.
• 9:30
  It comes so close to you now that you realize
• 9:34
  it's a bird, a beautiful bird with brightly colored wings
• 9:40
  and chest. What kind of bird do you think it is?
• 9:52
  The beautiful bird comes very close to you now and
• 9:56
  it sees you, and it harfers near you. The bird
• 10:03
  is looking at you, wondering how can you be here?
• 10:09
  The bird is puzzled because it doesn't seem that you
• 10:13
  have any wings, so how can you be up here?
• 10:19
  You smile, and the beautiful bird gives you one last
• 10:23
  look and then flies away. You look at the other
• 10:32
  clouds around you, And you are even able to look
• 10:36
  down on some of those clouds because you're above them now.
• 10:43
  You can see the shadows they make on the ground
• 10:46
  below you. Can you see the shadows from your cloud?
• 10:54
  You watch how the shadow from your cloud drifts silently
• 11:00
  across the ground below. Maybe if you wave your hand,
• 11:06
  you might see the shadow of your hand too. Try
• 11:10
  it and see. You are so close now to another
• 11:22
  cloud above you that if you reach out, you can
• 11:26
  touch it.
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: Touch the cloud.
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: What does it feel like? You rise higher still and
• 11:41
  pass right through the clouds above you, and for just
• 11:45
  a moment, your cloud mingles with the other cloud, and
• 11:52
  you can feel the cool mist on your cheeks as
• 11:55
  you rise through the cloud. Can you feel it around you?
• 12:06
  It is like a glorious white, kind of foggy day,
• 12:13
  but the sun shines through both clouds just enough that
• 12:18
  the white all around you glows and shimmers. You rise
• 12:35
  higher still, suddenly coming through the other cloud and into
• 12:40
  the open, dazzling sunlight on your face, but it doesn't
• 12:44
  hurt to look at it. The sky above you is brilliant,
• 12:50
  vibrant blue, and you've never seen this color blue before.
• 12:55
  It's almost like the color is alive. So just lay
• 13:02
  back on your cloud, floating, drifting along, relaxing, just floating.
• 13:13
  Speaker 2: On your cloud.
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: Feel a cloud beneath you, supporting you, holding you close
• 13:24
  and keeping you safe. Now for a few moments, you
• 13:30
  can take your cloud anywhere you wish to go. You
• 13:36
  can go higher, you can go lower, you can even
• 13:41
  go side to side. You are in control. So just
• 13:47
  drift wherever you want to go because you are flying
• 13:53
  wherever you wish. You can travel anywhere you wish. You
• 14:01
  can look down on forests on the countryside, you can
• 14:07
  even look down on your own home. So just float
• 14:15
  wherever you like. And you are so relaxed, so peaceful,
• 14:24
  so calm, so very happy.
• 15:21
  Speaker 3: Google us.
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: You feel very sleepy now, so tired, but so relaxed,
• 17:18
  and you feel a gentle wave of sleepiness starting at
• 17:24
  your feet. You can feel your toes going to sleep,
• 17:31
  and it feels warm and tingling and ever so soft.
• 17:38
  And you can feel this soothing, gentle wave of sleepiness
• 17:44
  coming up your calves and your shins. You can feel
• 17:49
  it going up your thighs, and you think your legs
• 17:54
  have gone to sleep because they have. You feel very
• 18:01
  tired now, so sleepy, so happy, and it feels like
• 18:08
  you can't open your eyes, but that's okay because you
• 18:13
  don't want to open your eyes. The beautiful wave of
• 18:20
  sleepiness travels all the way up your body and down
• 18:26
  into your arms and your hands, making your body feel
• 18:32
  very very heavy, very very tired, and very very sleepy.
• 18:45
  This gentle, warm wave of sleepiness travels up into your
• 18:52
  face and over the top of your head and down
• 18:58
  the back of your neck, and you feel so tired now,
• 19:06
  so so sleepy, and you feel so nice now, so
• 19:15
  warm and snuggling under your soft blanket and the very
• 19:21
  squitchy pillow. So just have a little sleep now you
• 19:28
  can play again tomorrow. Night Night, sleep tight.
• 19:35
  Speaker 2: Lovely Angel using.
• 23:39
  Speaker 4: M la
