  Speaker 1: Close your eyes and make yourself comfortable in your very
• 0:31
  own bed. Take a deep breath into your nose and
• 0:39
  slowly and gently breathe out through your mouth. Take another
• 0:48
  deep breath in and slowly and gently breathe out through
• 0:55
  your mouth. One last time, deep breath in and slowly
• 1:05
  and gently breathe out through your mouth. Just feel a
• 1:12
  gentle rhythm of your breath. Feel a steady beat of
• 1:16
  your heart as it beats merrily in your chest, knowing
• 1:24
  that you are alive. Or take a moment to listen
• 1:31
  to your heartbeat and just feel a gentle rise and
• 1:35
  fall of your chest as it moves in time with
• 1:39
  your heartbeat. Can you feel it? Can you feel your
• 1:46
  chest rising and falling as you breathe peacefully. Now imagine
• 1:57
  yourself surrounded by a beautiful white light, a light so bright,
• 2:06
  a light of protection just for you. Now, breathe in
• 2:12
  this white light and feel it as it enters your body,
• 2:19
  making you feel all warm and safe, and it feels
• 2:25
  so wonderful, so peaceful. Now imagine that you are standing
• 2:35
  in a beautiful meadow and there are wild flowers dotted
• 2:40
  all around the field, and they look absolutely amazing, and
• 2:47
  their colors are so vivid, and they sway just a
• 2:52
  little bit in the gentle breeze. Hows you look around.
• 2:59
  You can see the birds as they fly all around
• 3:03
  the field, probably looking for some food. Can you see them?
• 3:12
  Can you hear them singing their beautiful songs. You can
• 3:20
  also see large trees all around the edges of the field,
• 3:27
  trees of many different shapes and sizes, And there are
• 3:31
  quite a few pine trees too, and they smell wonderful.
• 3:37
  Can you smell them? Can you smell the scent of
• 3:42
  the wildflowers, because they too smell amazing, quite like nothing
• 3:47
  you've smelt before, And that too makes you feel so
• 3:52
  peaceful and so very calm. And the scent of the
• 4:01
  flowers their own went makes you think of happy things,
• 4:07
  happy times in your life, with the people you love,
• 4:12
  with the animals you love, with the friends that you
• 4:16
  love to So you begin to walk into the center
• 4:24
  of this wonderful field, and as you do, you notice
• 4:29
  something up ahead of you. You see a doorway, a
• 4:35
  doorway just standing in the center of the field. How strange.
• 4:43
  You decide to go and investigate this door standing alone
• 4:47
  in the middle of the field. And so you walk
• 4:50
  towards it, and very soon you are standing in front
• 4:55
  of it. It is white, with a large black hand
• 5:00
  in the middle of it. It's quite big too. You
• 5:05
  walk all the way round it and are very puzzled.
• 5:09
  Why is there? You ask yourself, why is it there?
• 5:14
  Why would there be a door in the middle of
• 5:16
  a field? Again, very strange. So, because you are curious,
• 5:26
  you decide to open the door. After all, it doesn't
• 5:30
  seem to lead anywhere, does it. So you press down
• 5:34
  on the handle and opened the door. What do you
• 5:39
  see beyond the door? It's really quite amazing. There is
• 5:45
  another place there. Maybe it's another world. Maybe this door
• 5:50
  is a portal to somewhere else. How exciting is that?
• 5:56
  I should peek through. You can see beds through that door,
• 6:00
  lots and lots of beds. Surely that can't be right,
• 6:05
  can it. So you walk around the door again, and
• 6:10
  as you go to the other side of it, you
• 6:13
  see that that side of the door is closed. How odd.
• 6:20
  One side of the door is open to another place,
• 6:23
  the other side is still closed. Oh my. So you
• 6:30
  go back around again to the open doorway, and as
• 6:34
  you look inside, you hear someone call your name, and
• 6:39
  you look down to where the voice came from, and
• 6:43
  you see, to your amazement, a big ginger cat with
• 6:47
  a great, big fluffy tail. Now this cat has beautiful
• 6:53
  green eyes and a great big smile on his face,
• 6:58
  and he has very long, silky whiskers and a red
• 7:02
  bow tie around his neck. He says hello again and
• 7:08
  tells you that his name is Mango, and that he
• 7:13
  is your guide to day on this little adventure. So
• 7:19
  you tell him below, and you tell him your name,
• 7:21
  and you say thank you very much for guiding me.
• 7:25
  Mango tells you to step through the door so that
• 7:28
  he can close it and you can begin to explore
• 7:31
  with him. So you step into the most beautiful place
• 7:38
  with rolling hills and a bright blue sky with a
• 7:42
  few fluffy white clouds just drifting along. The sun is
• 7:47
  shining low down now, as soon it will be getting dark.
• 7:52
  And you see that there are beds everywhere, and I
• 7:57
  do mean everywhere. There are so many of them that
• 8:03
  you can't count them. There are different sizes, different shapes,
• 8:08
  different colors. There are beds that look like cars, beds
• 8:13
  that look like water beds, beds that look like big trucks.
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: And beds that are hammocks. Beds that are anything you
• 8:24
  want them to be. It's just amazing.
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: So Mango tells you that the sun will be going
• 8:33
  down soon, so you need to choose a bed to
• 8:36
  sleep on for the night. Wow, you get to sleep
• 8:41
  here for the night. How cool is that? So you
• 8:47
  and Mango set off to search for a bed for
• 8:50
  you to sleep on. Later when the sun goes down,
• 8:54
  and you pass so many beds, and Mango says, eat
• 8:59
  and climb on them and see how they feel. He says,
• 9:03
  some of the beds are very soft and are made
• 9:06
  with feathers, some of them are a bit fairmer, and
• 9:10
  some of them really are waterbeds, he says. But it's
• 9:14
  your choice. You can choose any bed you want to
• 9:18
  sleep on. The beds are all different colors too, You
• 9:22
  can even see some in your favorite colors. Some of
• 9:27
  them have very large pillows and they look ever so comfy.
• 9:32
  Some of them just have normal sized pillows, but they
• 9:36
  too look so comfy, and you think you're never going
• 9:42
  to be able to decide what bed you would like
• 9:44
  to sleep in. Mango just laughs and he says that
• 9:49
  you will find the perfect bed for you. So for
• 9:55
  a few moments, go with Mango and explore all of
• 10:00
  at different beds, find the one you like the best,
• 10:04
  and that will be the one you get to sleep
• 10:07
  on tonight. So go with Mango nowt Wow, that was great,
• 12:49
  wasn't it. How many different beds did you see? Did
• 12:56
  you decide on the perfect bed? I bet you did so.
• 13:02
  Now with your chosen bed, you realize that the sun
• 13:07
  is almost gone and it's time for some sleep. So
• 13:12
  Mango leads you back to your chosen bed and he
• 13:16
  pulls back the covers for you, fluffs up the nice
• 13:20
  soft pillows, and you climb in, and Mango asks if
• 13:25
  it's okay, if he too can climb up and sleep
• 13:28
  on the top of the bed and maybe keep your
• 13:31
  feet warm and cozy. Well, you say, yes, of course
• 13:35
  you can. So the two of you snuggle down and
• 13:41
  you say good night to each other and you both
• 13:44
  close your eyes. You feel so happy to be staying
• 13:51
  here with Mango, and he really is keeping your feet
• 13:55
  nice and warm and cozy, and you feel so grateful
• 14:01
  to profound a new friend in him. He's been so
• 14:04
  kind to you, showing you all the beds and telling
• 14:08
  you which ones he likes to sleep on, and you
• 14:13
  can also come back and visit him whenever you want,
• 14:16
  and maybe have a sleepover again. Now that would be nice,
• 14:21
  wouldn't it. But your eyes are feeling really heavy now,
• 14:28
  and your body is feeling so very tired. It's been
• 14:32
  an exciting being here with Mango and choosing your own bed.
• 14:38
  But you take a gentle breath in through your nose
• 14:43
  and then just gently blow it out from your mouth,
• 14:49
  and you take another breath and gently blow that out
• 14:53
  from your mouth too, and you feel very sleepy now,
• 14:59
  so tired and relaxed, and you feel a gentle wave
• 15:05
  of sleepiness starting at your feet. It's a warm, gentle feeling,
• 15:13
  kind of like how a feather feels when you brush
• 15:16
  it up against your skin. So soft, so gentle, and
• 15:25
  you can feel your toes going to sleep, and it
• 15:28
  feels warm and tingly and ever so soft. And you
• 15:33
  feel the soothing, gentle wave of sleepiness coming up your
• 15:38
  calves and your shins, and you can feel going up
• 15:43
  your thighs, and you think your legs have already gone
• 15:47
  to sleep. Oh, you feel ever so tired now, so sleepy,
• 15:55
  but so very very happy, and your eyes just don't
• 16:01
  want to open now. They're quite happy. Just as they are.
• 16:08
  And this beautiful wave of sleepiness travels all the way
• 16:12
  up your body, down your arms, and into your hands,
• 16:18
  making your body feel very heavy, very tired, and very
• 16:27
  very sleepy. And this gentle, warm wave of sleepiness travels
• 16:35
  up your face and over the top of your head
• 16:40
  and down the back of your neck. And you feel
• 16:43
  so tired, so sleepy now, and you feel nice and
• 16:52
  warm and snugly, and your quilt is so soft, and
• 17:00
  your pillows are very fluffy. So just have a little
• 17:05
  sleep now, to sleep and relax and be calm. I
• 17:14
  should go deeper and deeper into a wonderful night's sleep.
• 17:22
  Night night sleep, Nights, Sai.
