  deep breath into your nose and slowly and gently breathe

  out through your mouth. Again, take a deep breath into

• 1:14
  and slowly and gently breathe out through your mouth. I
• 1:23
  just bring your breathing back to its normal rhythm. Just
• 1:27
  feeling your chest rise and fall gently, feeling peaceful and calm,
• 1:36
  feeling very relaxed. And with each breath you take, you
• 1:44
  can feel yourself becoming more and more relaxed, and yet
• 1:50
  you can feel quite floppy and loose. Now, imagine yourself
• 1:58
  surrounded by a beautiful white light, a light so bright
• 2:04
  and so pure, and this light will protect you and
• 2:10
  bring you peace. Now, just breathe in this white light,
• 2:17
  feel it as it enters your body, and it makes
• 2:21
  you feel all warm and safe. But you feel so
• 2:26
  peaceful now, so relaxed, and yet you feel very happy
• 2:33
  and light, and your breathing it's almost still you work
• 2:39
  so relaxed. Now, imagine that you are in a beautiful, lush,
• 2:48
  tropical forest, and this forest has the most amazing trees,
• 2:55
  and some of them are very very tall, so tall,
• 2:59
  in fact, let they look as if they're touching the
• 3:02
  sky and they reach up towards the sunshine. There are
• 3:07
  many different plants that sparkle with different colors and fragrances.
• 3:11
  Here it's so beautiful, and you can see birds flying
• 3:18
  gracefully through the canopy of magnificent heaves, building their nests
• 3:24
  high above the forest floor. And the sun is shining
• 3:29
  brightly on it a very beautiful clear day. And as
• 3:35
  you look up to the sky you can see a
• 3:38
  few soft, white, fluffy clouds just floating lazily in the
• 3:42
  deep blue sky. You can hear the birds chirping and
• 3:49
  singing to each other as they fly around the trees.
• 3:53
  Can you hear them? Can you? You can also hear
• 4:00
  the sound of little animals as they run around looking
• 4:03
  for treats and snacks. You can't see them, but you
• 4:07
  can't hear them. Can you hear them too? Can you?
• 4:17
  Amidst the rustling leaves and the birds, the sounds of
• 4:21
  other tropical animals add to the wonderful sounds of nature.
• 4:26
  Monkey's chattering, waterflies fluttering by the gentle stream that flows
• 4:34
  near by provides a calming background noise white, so peaceful.
• 4:40
  Here is so wonderful, and you like it very much,
• 4:45
  and you feel very calm, very relaxed, and very very peaceful.
• 4:55
  You are surrounded by the wonders of nature, and you
• 4:59
  are very grateful with the beauty of this tropical forest
• 5:04
  you find yourself in. So you decide to follow the
• 5:09
  winding path you are on, and it leads to you
• 5:13
  deeper into the heart of the forest, where you find
• 5:16
  even more exotic plants than animals. You see a family
• 5:21
  of sloths lazily hanging from the branch of a tree,
• 5:25
  whilst a group of colorful parrots squawk loudly overhead, and
• 5:29
  they really really are very noisy. So you continue on
• 5:37
  your journey when suddenly you stumble upon a hid waterfall
• 5:43
  cascading down into a crystal clear blue pool. It's so
• 5:50
  beautiful and it shiny and sparkles, and the sun dances
• 5:56
  on the surface like a thousand tiny little stars, all
• 6:01
  twinkling away. The sound of the rushing water fills the air,
• 6:08
  and the mist from the waterfall gives you a refreshing
• 6:12
  coolness from the warmth of the day as it gently
• 6:15
  lands on your body. The water looks really inviting, so
• 6:22
  you decide to take a little dip in the pool.
• 6:26
  So for a few moments, have a little swim around
• 6:29
  in this amazing water. Explore the rocks, take a good
• 6:34
  look at the water lilies floating on the surface of
• 6:37
  the water. See what else may be in this beautiful
• 6:42
  pool of crystal clear water. Maybe you we'll find some frogs. Well,
• 6:49
  maybe you can see the little fish swimming around it too.
• 6:53
  So go ahead and just have a little explore. Wow,
• 8:58
  that's veryshing wasn't it. So you climb out of the
• 9:04
  water and dry yourself off. What did you see? Did
• 9:11
  you find anything? Did you hear anything? What else was there?
• 9:21
  You decide to continue on your way, and eventually you
• 9:27
  come across an ancient ruin nestled deep within the forest.
• 9:32
  The crumbling stone walls are covered in vines and moss,
• 9:37
  and there are deep pink flowers growing all around it too,
• 9:42
  giving it an enchanting appearance. As you look around the ruins,
• 9:49
  you discovered some intricate car rings, showing you scenes from
• 9:53
  long ago civilizations that once lived here. And as you
• 9:59
  look at them, you wonder who they were. You wonder
• 10:05
  if they looked like you, and you wonder where did
• 10:11
  they all go? It was such a long time ago, though.
• 10:19
  You decide to carry on your winding path again through
• 10:22
  the beautiful trees, and you wonder where it will lead
• 10:27
  you to next. So you walk for a little while
• 10:33
  when you come across a cave hidden in the side
• 10:36
  of a very large mountain. You couldn't see it first,
• 10:41
  but as you got closer you could. The cave is
• 10:46
  very quiet and peaceful, and lovely and warm too, and
• 10:51
  it sits inside the vibrant beauty of this tropical paradise.
• 10:59
  You explore the cab a little bit and find that
• 11:03
  there is a fire already lit for you. You can
• 11:06
  hear the crackling of the burning logs. There are lanterns
• 11:11
  all around this little cave, and as you look closer,
• 11:15
  you see there are tiny fireflies inside the lanterns, giving
• 11:21
  your cave a lovely, homely feel. You notice that there
• 11:29
  is a hammock gently swinging at the back of the cave.
• 11:34
  It has a lush, fluffy pillow and a lovely soft
• 11:38
  blanket just for you. Well, you are feeling a bit
• 11:42
  tired now, after all, you've had a very big day
• 11:46
  of exploring this beautiful tropical forest. But you notice that
• 11:54
  the forest has come quieter. Now, Well, that's because all
• 12:00
  of the animals and birds have now gone to sleep themselves.
• 12:08
  So you climb up onto the gently swinging hammock and
• 12:12
  you lay your head on the lush pillow and cover
• 12:17
  yourself with a lovely soft blanket and give a big
• 12:22
  sigh of happiness. You've had a lovely day. You've heard
• 12:29
  and seen a lot of animals and birds. He went
• 12:32
  for a swim in the pool, and you saw that
• 12:35
  cascade in waterfall, and then you found the ruins, and
• 12:42
  you still wonder where did they all go? You notice
• 12:49
  now that it's started to rain outside your cave, soft
• 12:55
  gentle rain, and as you listen to it, begin still
• 13:00
  look you to sleep. And you are feeling very tired
• 13:05
  now and oh so sleepy, And you feel yourself singing
• 13:11
  deeply into your hammer, and it feels wonderful. It's just
• 13:17
  as if you are lying on a soft, fleecy cloud,
• 13:22
  and you feel very relaxed, very calm, and you begin
• 13:28
  to drift deeper and deeper to a very happy and
• 13:35
  peaceful sleep. You can still hear the sound of the rain.
• 13:43
  It's like a lullaby, singing you off to sleep, and
• 13:49
  you're going deeper and deeper into gentle sleep. But remember
• 13:57
  you are safe, you are loved, and you are protected always.
• 14:08
  Your body is already asleep now, and your mind is
• 14:15
  following your body into a deep, RESTful sleep.
• 14:22
  Speaker 2: So rest now, and when you wake up in the
• 14:26
  morning you will feel so refreshed, so alate, and so
• 14:33
  very very happy.
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: Well for now, just listen to the rain and just sleep.
