- 3:19you continue walking down your path. When you hear the
- 3:23sound of gentle waves getting closer. You see a clearing
- 3:28in the trees, and you notice that the path you
- 3:30are on has become sandy and the sound of the
- 3:34waves is a lot louder now, but it does sound
- 3:38really nice though. You reach the clearing and step out
- 3:44onto a beautiful golden beach and you can see the
- 3:49deep blue ocean now and it sparkles with the sun
- 3:52shining down on it, and it looks like thousands of
- 3:55tiny stars dancing on the gentle waves. It's so lovely.
- 4:03So you take off your shoes and walk on the
- 4:06lovely soft sand and it feels so warm under your feet.
- 4:11You can smell the salty air from the ocean, and
- 4:13it makes you feel so peaceful and so calm. It
- 4:18really is beautiful on your magical island. As you look
- 4:23around you, you see up ahead of you a cluster
- 4:26of rocks, and some of them are very large, indeed,
- 4:31so you decide to have a little explore.
- 4:36Speaker 2: You reach the rocks and they are even bigger nail
- 4:39that you're close to them when you notice that there
- 4:43is an opening amongst the rocks, quite a large one too,
- 4:47and you realize that.
- 4:49Speaker 1: It's a cave. How exciting it's a cave, and you
- 4:54wonder what's inside, So you decide to take a look
- 4:58and see. You step through the entrance and it's dark
- 5:02at fairs, but then it begins to become lighter the
- 5:04deeper inside the cave you go. You can hear the
- 5:08sound of water too. It sounds like big fat raindrops plucking,
- 5:12and others sounding like musical notes dropping down from somewhere
- 5:17deep inside the cave, and you can hear it echoing
- 5:22deeper into the cave as it drops. You can't see
- 5:26it happening, but you can hear it. As you walk
- 5:32further into the cave, you see large candles shining brightly
- 5:37in a big circle. And inside the circle you see
- 5:41a little girl and she's wearing a long white dress,
- 5:45and she's sitting in the middle of all the candles
- 5:49with her legs closed. She is smiling happily, and you
- 5:54wonder who is she smiling at. As you get closer
- 5:58to her, you see lot some lovely daisies and buttercups,
- 6:02and there floating gently above her head. It's like the
- 6:05dancing for her. She sees you and gives you a
- 6:11big grin, and she asks you if you would like
- 6:14to sit in the circle with her. Well, obviously, you
- 6:18say yes. She tells you that her name is Melody.
- 6:24You tell her your name, and she says she is
- 6:28very glad to meet you today. You look at the
- 6:32dancing flowers and you wonder how this is happening. How
- 6:37could she be doing this? Is she doing this? So
- 6:41you ask Melody. She tells you that she is moving
- 6:45them with her mind. Oh my, how wonderful, you think,
- 6:53But how can she you wonder? Melody sees that you
- 6:58look puzzled, so she tells you that what she does
- 7:03is concentrate very hard as she looks at the flowers.
- 7:07Then she imagines them slowly rising and rising until they
- 7:11are floating above her head. Then she imagines them dancing
- 7:16for her, and they do. Wow. Melody tells you that
- 7:21you can do it. Two of you want to, and
- 7:24she will show you how. Next to Melody is a
- 7:28little basket filled with daisies and buttercups, and she tells
- 7:32you to take some of the flowers and lay them
- 7:34down in front of you. So you do. Now, Melody
- 7:40says to you, just concentrate and the flowers and just focus.
- 7:46Think of nothing else, only the flowers. Then she says,
- 7:50imagine the flowers slowly rising upwards. You concentrate really hard
- 7:59and focus on the flowers, and you stare at them
- 8:03really really hard. You scrunch up your face and screw
- 8:07up your eyes, but nothing happens. Ah, you feel disappointed.
- 8:15You really thought you could do it. Melody gives a
- 8:20little laugh and smiles at you. She tells you that
- 8:24you are concentrating a little bit too hard. She tells
- 8:29you to relax. She says, close your eyes and fill
- 8:34your heart with love and take three deep breaths in
- 8:38and out. Then open your eyes. So you do, you relax,
- 8:46You close your eyes, and you fill your heart with
- 8:49as much love as you can.
- 8:52Speaker 3: And then you breathe in and breathe out. Then you
- 8:59breathe in and breathe out. Then you breathe in, then
- 9:08you breathe out.
- 9:12Speaker 1: Now you open your eyes. You feel a lot calmer. Now,
- 9:19Melody tells you you just see the flowers lifting with
- 9:23your mind. So once again you focus on the tiny flowers.
- 9:30Only this time flowers start to quiver. So you keep
- 9:36on focusing and are absolutely amazed when the tiny flowers
- 9:41slowly begin to rise. Oh wow, you're doing it, You
- 9:48are really doing it. You watch as your flowers rise
- 9:54higher and higher, and you see them floating above your head.
- 9:59You see them begin to dance for you. Oh my goodness,
- 10:03this truly is magical. You truly are magical. So now
- 10:12Melody's flowers and your flowers are both dancing above your heads,
- 10:18and you find it easier and easier to do this.
- 10:21In fact, you're not even concentrating. Now you're just making
- 10:25the flowers dance and float in the air. You're just
- 10:28doing it. How wonderful. So for a few moments to
- 10:35stay with Melody in play and see what else you
- 10:38can make your flowers do. Maybe you can make them
- 10:41go higher, or maybe you, a Melody, can make your
- 10:45flowers dance together. So have some fun, just for a
- 10:49little while to say, Wow, that was amazing, wasn't it.
- 13:18You truly are magical. But now it's time for you
- 13:25to return. So you put your flowers back inside the
- 13:29little basket for Melody and thank her for showing you
- 13:33that you are magical too. Melody tells you that you
- 13:38can do anything you want if you focus your mind enough.
- 13:43She tells you that you are indeed very magical. Melody
- 13:49tells you that you are a very special being. She
- 13:55says that all you have to do is fill your
- 13:57heart with love and project it outward to the world.
- 14:02She says that if you always do that, you will
- 14:05never go wrong. She says that everyone can do it
- 14:09if they want to. Sometimes it just takes a little
- 14:13bit of practice. So you say good bye to Melody
- 14:19and you stand up. Then Melody reaches into a little
- 14:23bag she has around a waist. You didn't notice it before,
- 14:27and she pulls out some gold and sparkling dust. She says,
- 14:32she can get you home much quicker, and she very
- 14:36gently sprinkles it over your head, and in the blink
- 14:39of an eye, your back home in your very own bed. Wow,
- 14:46how cool is that she snuggle down near your quilt
- 14:53and lay your head on your soft pillows. And as
- 14:58she relax, you feel yourself becoming so very sleepy, and
- 15:05you feel yourself drifting peacefully into sleep, and you smile
- 15:12to yourself and think how wonderful it was to make
- 15:16melody to day. You are so grateful to her for
- 15:20teaching you how to use your mind to make the
- 15:24flowers dance. And you know you'll sleep well to night
- 15:30because your heart feels so very happy, and your body
- 15:36is completely calm and resting, so peaceful and so calm.
- 15:45As you go deeper and deeper into a beautiful night sleep,
- 15:52and you're breathing quietly and gently, now knowing that you
- 15:58will see melody again and you will make the flowers dance.
- 16:05It's so peaceful, so calmon, so very safe. Good night, Sweet.
