  Speaker 1: Bring yourself to the present by focusing on letting out
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: tension and receiving refreshing waves through your breathing. Notice your shoulders.
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: Are they high up and tense? Can you lower them yourself?
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: If not, observe them. Observe what happens when you breathe out.
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: muscles start to relax and your mind becomes a little quieter.
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: Just remind yourself that you have chosen this moment for
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: yourself and nothing else. This is a time to reconnect
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: with yourself to relax and clear your mind of overthinking
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: and any negative thoughts. If it helps, adjust the way
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: you are positioned to be more comfortable. Do everything you
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: must to encourage the feeling of peace and tranquility that
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: you would like to experience. Now is not a time
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: for anything outside of the room that you're in. It's
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: about having a safe space to let go, to be
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: with yourself and take a breather. The more that you
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: observe yourself and make tiny adjustments, it will eventually become
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: an automatic response every time you become aware. You can
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: find the feeling of peace, settle down thoughts and relax
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: muscles just by bringing your awareness to your mind and body.
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: Now Picture in your mind a room that could promote
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: such a feeling. It could be anything. It could be
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: a bedroom with plush pillows and soft furnishings. Or it
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: could be a room with a forest or a beach.
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: As I said, it could be anything. Picture yourself there.
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: Close your eyes if you haven't already to see it
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: more vividly. Let the image begin to take on more details.
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: as if someone is slowly turning up the clarity. Notice
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: the light in this space. Is it warm and golden,
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: like late afternoon sun slipping through a window? Or is
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: it soft and dim, like candlelight flickering gently against the walls.
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: Allow the lighting to feel exactly right for you. Comforting,
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: calming and easy on the eyes. Now begin to notice
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: the textures around you. If you're in a bedroom, feel
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: the softness of the pillows, the gentle weight of a
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: blanket resting over your body. If you're in a forest,
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: sense the cool air brushing against your skin and the
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: steady strength of the ground beneath you. If you are
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: near the ocean, hear the rhythmic waves arriving and retreating.
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: Steady and dependable, like your own breath. Take a slow inhalation,
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: and as you breathe in, imagine that this room is
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: breathing with you. As you exhale, feel the space responding, settling, softening,
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: and growing quieter. you are allowing your nervous system to
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: recognize safety and when your body recognizes safety it begins
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: to release what it has been holding notice your forehead
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: is it smooth if not allow it to soften notice
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: your jaw, let your teeth part slightly, and let your
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: tongue rest gently at the bottom of your mouth, feel
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: your neck, your shoulders and arms, with each out breath,
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: They grow heavier. Not forced, just naturally releasing. Imagine now
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: that the air in the room carries a subtle quality.
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: A quiet, soothing energy. With every inhalation, it enters your
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: body like a calm wave, washing through you. It moves
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: through your chest, your stomach, your hips and legs, all
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: the way down to your feet. And as it moves,
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: it gently dissolves any leftover tensions. you don't need to
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: fix anything you don't need to understand anything you are
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: simply relaxing if thoughts try to enter your mind notice
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: them the way you would notice clouds passing across the
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: sky they move in and they move out you don't
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: chase them you don't hold on to them you let
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: them drift Bring your awareness back to this room. Is
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: there a sound here? Perhaps the faint rustling of leaves.
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: The distant hum of waves. The soft quiet of a
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: peaceful bedroom. Let that sound become steady and grounding. Let
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: it anchor you here. Now imagine that somewhere in this
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: space there is a seat. chair a cushion a small
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: rock or even just a patch of soft ground see
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: yourself sitting there notice how relaxed you are there is
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: nothing to prove here nothing to perform.
• 11:11
  Speaker 2: Just you relaxing as you sit.
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: Imagine a gentle light above you it doesn't overwhelm you
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: it simply glows softly like a protective warmth that pours
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: down over the top of your head feel it move
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: Through your scalp. Relaxing tiny muscles you didn't even realize
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: were tight. Down your face. Smoothing, calming. Through your throat,
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: your chest and heart space. If there's been any heaviness here,
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: allow the light to hold it without judgment. Down into
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: your stomach, releasing knots. Through your hips. Unwinding stored tension.
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: Into your legs, your knees. Your calves and feet. Now
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: your entire body sits in this soft glow. Take another
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: slow breath in, and as you breathe out, feel yourself
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: sink just a little deeper into comfort. You are allowed
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: to rest here. You are allowed to take up this space.
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: You are allowed to feel peace without guilt.
• 14:01
  Speaker 2: Take a few moments to sit here.
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: Allow things to settle in naturally, letting this room, this light,
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: and this calmness to become familiar, like a place you
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: can return to at any time. and now as you
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: remain in this peaceful space begin to recognize something gentle
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: and empowering this calmness that you feel was not given
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: to you by the room it was not created by
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: the light It was not dependent on the forest, the
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: ocean or the softness around you. It came from you.
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: Visualizing the room simply helped you to remember how to relax.
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: How to find that peace. Take a slow steady breath
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: in and as you breathe out Allow the image of
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: this space to slowly fade away, like mist dissolving in
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: the morning. bring your awareness back to your physical body now.
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: notice the surface beneath you. notice the temperature of the
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: air on your skin. Notice the quiet sound in the
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: room that you're actually in. Wiggle your fingers slightly. Move
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: your toes. Maybe roll your shoulders slightly. Or stretch your
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: neck in a way that feels natural and unforced. Take
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: a slightly deeper breath in this time, filling your lungs completely,
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: and exhale with a soft sigh. Allow your body to
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: feel refreshed instead of heavy. Clear rather than distant. Present
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: rather than withdrawn. begin to sense the room around you,
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: the walls, the ceiling, the space holding you, you are here,
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: you are grounded and steady, and when you feel ready
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: not rushed, not forced gently blink your eyes open let
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: the light come in gradually and allow your vision to
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: adjust slowly Take a moment to simply look around, noticing shapes,
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: colours and movement. There's no abrupt transitions. You carry this
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: calmness with you. Remind yourself quietly now. You can return
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: to this state whenever you choose to. Take one more
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: steady inhalation and exhale completely. Welcome back You are now refreshed, calm, grounded,
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: and have a sensation of peace flowing through you.
• 21:33
  Speaker 2: Thank you for watching.
