  Speaker 1: Welcome to Get Sleepy, where we listen, we relax, and
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: we get sleepy. I'm your host, Thomas. Thanks for joining
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: us tonight. Marcellus will be reading this evening's story, which
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: is about a young traveller who finds a sense of
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: calm and inner balance during a rainforest retreat. Let's get
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: nice and settled, ready for tonight's story. When you're cozy
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: and comfortable in bed, allow your eyes to gently close
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: and take a deep breath in through the nose. Then
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: slowly out. letting your muscles loosen and relax. As you
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: repeat that relaxed rhythm of breathing, giving your body a
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: chance to transition into the calm of night, I'd like
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: you to think about the positive impact of your care,
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: kindness and compassion. I'm reminding you because I think we
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: all have times where we forget just how important and
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: valuable our kindness can be. I've spoken to friends at
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: times when they're feeling low on purpose and direction in
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: their lives and I've felt that way myself plenty of
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: times too. But one thing I try to remind myself
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: of and anyone I'm supporting is that the way we
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: are as people, the way we act towards others, and
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: the good deeds and moments of kindness we share with
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: the world, really are so impactful. Not only do they
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: directly impact those closest to us, but these moments of
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: positive interaction can be exponentially far-reaching, Just think about it.
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: If someone is feeling at a loss, perhaps they're feeling
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: bad about themselves or about the way other people have
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: treated them, your moment of kindness and support could be
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: just what they need. And by acting with kindness and compassion,
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: you'll feel better about yourself and it can begin a
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: domino effect. The next time that person sees or speaks
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: to someone in need, perhaps they will feel inspired by
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: your words, or simply by your kind nature, and they
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: will be more likely to spread that same positivity to others.
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: And so, the cycle continues. It can be easy to
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: feel like our place in the world is limited or
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: confined to a small portion of it. But I challenge
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: you to think openly, think big and be absolutely assured
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: that your small acts of kindness and compassion hold the
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: power to impact many, many lives. So take one more
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: of those big, deep breaths. And as you exhale, reassure
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: yourself that you have the power to make a difference.
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: As you continue making your way to sleep, you can
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: just listen to our story in the background. We'll be
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: joining a traveler named Jeremiah, who has just made his
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: way into the Mexican rainforest for a relaxing adventure.
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: Jeremiah has just arrived at a rainforest retreat. With his
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: backpack still strapped to his shoulders, he's ready for new experiences.
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: His sense of adventure brought him to the northeastern Yucatan Peninsula,
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: where he plans to explore the coastline in all its
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: natural glory. He will hike with friends, take long bike
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: rides at sunset, and snorkel with tropical sea creatures. Before
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: his adventure begins, though, Jeremiah is going to relax. His
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: number one priority is calming his mind before heading off
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: into the unknown. After checking into his resort, He walks
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: up to the concierge, a friendly young man in a
• 6:26
  Speaker 2: white linen shirt and tan pants. Luckily, the resort has
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: a world-renowned spa. He asks the concierge if he can
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: book a treatment. I will schedule a water journey for you,
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: replies the young man, smiling kindly. Jeremiah likes the sound
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: of this. A water journey sounds so simple yet delightful,
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: he thinks. Then he recalls a quote from Leonardo da Vinci.
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication. Jeremiah takes the first available appointment.
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: The timing is perfect. It allows him to find his room,
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: drop off his backpack, and arrange his belongings in his
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: temporary home. The concierge was very specific with his instructions
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: for the water journey. He told Jeremiah to wear comfortable
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: swimwear and the white robe he finds in his room.
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: Once unpacked and changed, Jeremiah makes his way to the spa.
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: He walks through a tall glass door and is met
• 8:04
  Speaker 2: by the scent of eucalyptus. He breathes it in, filling
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: his lungs with the soothing fragrance. Then he looks around,
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: taking in the space. The walls are painted in muted
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: earth tones, and the flooring is made of stranded bamboo.
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: There is a small stream with rocks flowing right through
• 8:38
  Speaker 2: the middle of the reception area. The sound of gentle
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: water dancing over the rocks is like a tranquil lullaby.
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: Jeremiah has been in plenty of spas before, but this
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: one might be the most inviting of them all. At
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: the reception desk stands a woman with dark brown eyes
• 9:08
  Speaker 2: and chestnut hair pulled into a sleek bun. She's dressed
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: in an elegant white uniform. She greets Jeremiah with a
• 9:20
  Speaker 2: warm smile, And introduces herself as Rosa. She will be
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: his water journey guide for the day. Rosa offers Jeremiah
• 9:35
  Speaker 2: a tiny glass of green liquid. Presented on a silver tray.
• 9:43
  Speaker 2: She explains it's a room temperature tea. Specially formulated for relaxation.
• 9:53
  Speaker 2: Jeremiah takes a sip from the tiny glass. It tastes
• 9:58
  Speaker 2: like cucumber and mint. with a dash of something sweet
• 10:02
  Speaker 2: he can't pinpoint. He finishes the drink and sets the
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: empty glass on the tray. Smiling, Rosa tells Jeremiah to
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: follow her. They walk down a hallway and through an
• 10:25
  Speaker 2: ornately carved door. On the way, Jeremiah listens to the
• 10:33
  Speaker 2: soft soundtrack playing on overhead speakers. He appreciates the sound
• 10:42
  Speaker 2: of nature, a symphony of chirps woven together with a
• 10:48
  Speaker 2: peaceful rustling of leaves. The water journey officially begins in
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: a softly lit area. Rosa now talks in a much
• 11:00
  Speaker 2: quieter voice, even though no one else is around. She
• 11:08
  Speaker 2: tells Jeremiah that his journey will start in the sauna.
• 11:15
  Speaker 2: From a nearby cabinet, she collects a misting bottle labeled
• 11:20
  Speaker 2: Lemongrass Water. then guides Jeremiah inside a glass enclosure. The
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: interior is made entirely of cedar wood planks and smells
• 11:34
  Speaker 2: fresh and woodsy. There are three empty benches in front
• 11:41
  Speaker 2: of him. Jeremiah chooses the one in the center, and
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: Rosa drapes a long white towel over it. Jeremiah lies
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: on top, face up, and makes himself comfortable. He soon
• 12:03
  Speaker 2: begins to feel the heat of the sauna against his
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: bare skin. Taking a deep, slow breath in, Jeremiah notices
• 12:17
  Speaker 2: the heat of the air entering his nose. He likes
• 12:22
  Speaker 2: the warm feeling. He closes his eyes so that Rosa
• 12:29
  Speaker 2: can place a cool, wet cloth over them. She asks
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: him if he would like a lemongrass mist. He smiles
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: and thanks her. And she spritzes the mist over him.
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: It's wonderfully refreshing. and smells divine, like sweet herbs mixed
• 12:55
  Speaker 2: with crisp citrus fruit. Rosa then tells Jeremiah that she
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: will return in a few minutes. She leaves the bottle
• 13:09
  Speaker 2: of lemongrass mist next to him, in case he wants
• 13:13
  Speaker 2: another spritz. He lies there and relaxes, enjoying the warmth
• 13:22
  Speaker 2: and peaceful sounds of a tropical rainforest. Later, Rosa comes
• 13:29
  Speaker 2: back and lightly taps Jeremiah on his arm. When she
• 13:36
  Speaker 2: asks him how he feels, he doesn't need to answer
• 13:40
  Speaker 2: with words. His wide, relaxed grin says it all. He
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: removes the cool cloth from his eyes, to discover he
• 13:51
  Speaker 2: is being presented with another tiny glass of liquid on
• 13:55
  Speaker 2: a silver tray. This time, the liquid is orange in color.
• 14:03
  Speaker 2: Rosa says it's tangerine ginger infused water. Jeremiah drinks it all,
• 14:12
  Speaker 2: enjoying the sensation it gives him as it cools his throat.
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: This refreshing feeling then spreads right through his body. He
• 14:26
  Speaker 2: stands and Rosa picks up the lemongrass misting bottle. She
• 14:35
  Speaker 2: points the nozzle and sends two puffs of the mist
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: into the air. Jeremiah intuitively walks through the lemongrass cloud,
• 14:47
  Speaker 2: breathing in the fragrance again it brings him a burst
• 14:53
  Speaker 2: of happiness. Rosa then motions for him to follow her
• 14:59
  Speaker 2: to another room. Light blue iridescent tiles the size of
• 15:05
  Speaker 2: coins cover the floor, walls, ceiling, and even the built-in seating.
• 15:16
  Speaker 2: In the center of the room, There is a large
• 15:20
  Speaker 2: glass bowl on a pedestal. The bowl is filled with ice.
• 15:28
  Speaker 2: Jeremiah takes a seat and watches Rosa unfold a small
• 15:33
  Speaker 2: damp cloth made of cotton. She sets the cloth next
• 15:39
  Speaker 2: to him and scoops some ice into her hands. Gently,
• 15:47
  Speaker 2: She places the ice in the middle of the cloth,
• 15:51
  Speaker 2: then folds the corners of the fabric around the ice,
• 15:56
  Speaker 2: twisting the top. The creation reminds Jeremiah of foil-wrapped chocolates.
• 16:06
  Speaker 2: Just then, Rosa calls it an ice kiss, as if
• 16:12
  Speaker 2: she was reading his thoughts. She hands him the ice kiss,
• 16:20
  Speaker 2: then explains the exfoliation benefits of cool textured cloth on skin.
• 16:29
  Speaker 2: She tells him she'll return in a little while. Jeremiah
• 16:36
  Speaker 2: presses the ice kiss against his shoulder and slowly glides
• 16:41
  Speaker 2: it down his arm to his wrist. Since his body
• 16:47
  Speaker 2: is already warmed from the sauna, it's invigorating and not
• 16:53
  Speaker 2: as cold as he expected. He repeats this with his
• 16:59
  Speaker 2: other arm and then the back of his neck. When
• 17:06
  Speaker 2: he is done, the ice kiss is almost completely melted
• 17:10
  Speaker 2: in his hand, leaving him with an empty wet cloth
• 17:17
  Speaker 2: He puts the cloth on top of his head, relishing
• 17:22
  Speaker 2: the cool sensation. A moment later, Rosa reappears with a
• 17:30
  Speaker 2: small saucer of aloe vera gel. She encourages Jeremiah to
• 17:39
  Speaker 2: apply the gel liberally to his skin, which he does
• 17:43
  Speaker 2: with both hands. The gel provides a lovely contrast after
• 17:51
  Speaker 2: the texture of the cool cloth. Rosa gives him a
• 17:57
  Speaker 2: few more minutes to himself. Then reappears with another tiny
• 18:03
  Speaker 2: glass of liquid on the silver tray. This time, the
• 18:10
  Speaker 2: liquid is a deep red. It's strawberry cinnamon water. according
• 18:17
  Speaker 2: to Rosa, and it's a combination of flavors Jeremiah has
• 18:22
  Speaker 2: never tried before. He gladly drinks the concoction and decides
• 18:30
  Speaker 2: it's his favorite one so far. Now it's time for
• 18:37
  Speaker 2: another room, the steam room. This part of the journey
• 18:45
  Speaker 2: includes a special treatment for Jeremiah's face. Rosa presents him
• 18:52
  Speaker 2: with a jar of light brown clay. She uses gestures
• 18:59
  Speaker 2: to explain the process, pretending to dip her fingers into
• 19:03
  Speaker 2: the jar, then swiping her own face. He takes his cue.
• 19:12
  Speaker 2: and scoops out some of the substance, rubbing it onto
• 19:16
  Speaker 2: his forehead, cheeks, and chin. It smells surprisingly fruity. Rosa
• 19:28
  Speaker 2: explains the facial mass is made of pomegranate, which is
• 19:33
  Speaker 2: full of antioxidants. This explains the fragrance. The substance is
• 19:42
  Speaker 2: also mixed with sea kelp, which is why it has
• 19:46
  Speaker 2: this distinctive pale brown color. Jeremiah lets the mask soak
• 19:54
  Speaker 2: into his skin and asks himself, why haven't I tried
• 19:59
  Speaker 2: this before? He imagines that he can already feel his
• 20:06
  Speaker 2: skin relaxing and getting softer. The steam room is very dark.
• 20:16
  Speaker 2: The layout is almost identical to the ice room. Yet
• 20:22
  Speaker 2: the coin-sized tiles are navy blue, and there are twinkling
• 20:27
  Speaker 2: lights in the ceiling, mimicking stars. The temperature in the
• 20:35
  Speaker 2: steam room is similar to the temperature of the sauna,
• 20:39
  Speaker 2: but it feels so different. The sauna was dry, whereas
• 20:45
  Speaker 2: the steam room is anything but. Rosa spreads a fresh
• 20:52
  Speaker 2: white towel over a tiled lounge chair. Jeremiah lies down
• 20:59
  Speaker 2: on the towel and closes his eyes. Next, Rosa places
• 21:08
  Speaker 2: two cucumber slices on top of his eyelids. and whispers
• 21:13
  Speaker 2: that she will retrieve him in a few minutes. He
• 21:19
  Speaker 2: takes that time to reflect and clear his mind some more.
• 21:27
  Speaker 2: The face mask is starting to tingle, ever so slightly.
• 21:34
  Speaker 2: It's nice to feel pampered, he decides. breathing in the
• 21:40
  Speaker 2: gentle steam wafting about in the room. Rosa soon returns,
• 21:49
  Speaker 2: entering the steam room with yet another small glass of
• 21:52
  Speaker 2: liquid on the silver tray. It's pink this time, delicious
• 22:00
  Speaker 2: hibiscus lemonade. Once Jeremiah has placed his empty glass on
• 22:07
  Speaker 2: the tray, Rosa motions for him to follow her. They
• 22:14
  Speaker 2: go into a white-tiled room. Above, spaced a few feet apart,
• 22:21
  Speaker 2: are two rainfall shower hands. Each one has a beaded
• 22:28
  Speaker 2: metal rope dangling nearby. Rosa says the shower on the
• 22:34
  Speaker 2: left will be invigorating and cool, while the one on
• 22:39
  Speaker 2: the right will be warm and toasty. She tells Jeremiah
• 22:47
  Speaker 2: that he doesn't need to choose one over the other.
• 22:50
  Speaker 2: He can and should try them both. The cool shower
• 22:58
  Speaker 2: is great for rinsing off the aloe vera gel and
• 23:01
  Speaker 2: facial mask, while the warm shower offers comfort It's so comforting,
• 23:11
  Speaker 2: in fact, that Jeremiah takes his time savoring the heat.
• 23:20
  Speaker 2: But there's no rush, and Rosa is happy to wait
• 23:24
  Speaker 2: outside until he's ready to continue. After the rainfall shower room,
• 23:33
  Speaker 2: Rosa offers Jeremiah a small glass of peach tea. and
• 23:38
  Speaker 2: a soft cranberry orange cookie. He pops the cookie into
• 23:45
  Speaker 2: his mouth, eating it in a single bite. It's unbelievable
• 23:54
  Speaker 2: how much flavor such a small treat can hold. He
• 24:01
  Speaker 2: grins like a child. Remembering the cranberry muffins his grandmother
• 24:07
  Speaker 2: used to make around holiday time. Rosa smiles at Jeremiah
• 24:16
  Speaker 2: and once again tells him to follow her to a
• 24:20
  Speaker 2: new area. This is the second to last room and
• 24:27
  Speaker 2: the smallest one yet. However, It represents the best of
• 24:35
  Speaker 2: each of the previous rooms. The floors are cedar, like
• 24:43
  Speaker 2: in the sauna. In the center of the room, there's
• 24:50
  Speaker 2: a tiled lounger, like in the ice kiss room. Only
• 24:55
  Speaker 2: this time, the lounger is a shiny beige color. There
• 25:02
  Speaker 2: are twinkling stars embedded in the ceiling, like in the
• 25:06
  Speaker 2: steam room, and the temperature is ideal. Rosa places a
• 25:14
  Speaker 2: dry towel on the tiled lounger. This lounge chair is
• 25:22
  Speaker 2: shaped a bit differently than the other ones Jeremiah has tried.
• 25:28
  Speaker 2: This one was specifically designed zero gravity in mind to
• 25:34
  Speaker 2: alleviate pressure in certain areas like the lower back. Jeremiah
• 25:42
  Speaker 2: knows what to do. He lies down and instantly feels
• 25:48
  Speaker 2: a pleasant warmth. The tiles of this lounger are heated.
• 25:57
  Speaker 2: Rosa sets a delicate lavender pillow across his eyes and
• 26:02
  Speaker 2: gives him a gentle scalp massage for a few minutes. Then,
• 26:09
  Speaker 2: she places a light, soft blanket over him and says
• 26:15
  Speaker 2: that she'll return later. During this time, Jeremiah fills his
• 26:23
  Speaker 2: body into a deeper state of relaxation. He rests his
• 26:29
  Speaker 2: hands just under his chest his fingers interlaced. Sinking into
• 26:38
  Speaker 2: the lounger, he somehow feels heavy, yet light and feathery
• 26:46
  Speaker 2: at the same time. For once, there are no thoughts
• 26:53
  Speaker 2: in his mind. All he can feel is tranquility. And
• 27:00
  Speaker 2: all he can imagine is peace. Glad he has no
• 27:08
  Speaker 2: plans for the evening, Jeremiah can truly relax now, savoring
• 27:15
  Speaker 2: this time to himself. He doesn't want it to end.
• 27:23
  Speaker 2: As he lies on the lounger, he continues to do
• 27:27
  Speaker 2: nothing but breathe in and out. Every muscle in his
• 27:35
  Speaker 2: body is loose and free, and even his toes are relaxed.
• 27:44
  Speaker 2: As the minutes pass, Jeremiah feels like he's letting go
• 27:49
  Speaker 2: more and more, detached from his everyday routine. Sinking even
• 27:59
  Speaker 2: more deeply into the lounge chair, he takes a full
• 28:04
  Speaker 2: breath in, expanding his chest and stomach. He becomes aware
• 28:13
  Speaker 2: of every sensation as his chest rises and falls with
• 28:19
  Speaker 2: each breath. As he enjoys the subtle little chirps and
• 28:26
  Speaker 2: rustling leaves in the background, his mind is perfectly quiet
• 28:36
  Speaker 2: he sinks further into relaxation, deeper than he's ever experienced before.
• 28:44
  Speaker 2: Jeremiah could easily fall asleep here, near the end of
• 28:49
  Speaker 2: his water journey. For some reason, however, he doesn't drift
• 28:57
  Speaker 2: off completely. It's as if he's floating, on the cusp
• 29:05
  Speaker 2: of being slightly awake while in a cozy hibernation. He
• 29:13
  Speaker 2: welcomes and thoroughly enjoys this dreamy daze. Meanwhile, the birds
• 29:23
  Speaker 2: chirp and the leaves rustle some more. He concentrates on
• 29:31
  Speaker 2: the sounds. His breath and the gentle scent of the
• 29:37
  Speaker 2: lavender pillow on his eyes. There are no thoughts, just serenity.
• 29:48
  Speaker 2: His chest rises with another full, deep breath, then falls.
• 29:58
  Speaker 2: Jeremiah lies in stillness. He is so happy and calm
• 30:04
  Speaker 2: in this cherished moment. The only thing he needs to
• 30:08
  Speaker 2: do is breathe. In and out. Eventually, Rosa quietly enters
• 30:24
  Speaker 2: the room. She touches Jeremiah's shoulder and asks if he's awake.
• 30:34
  Speaker 2: If she had come in two minutes later, he would
• 30:38
  Speaker 2: have surely fallen asleep. He grins, awakening the muscles in
• 30:46
  Speaker 2: his face, letting Rosa know that he is ready for
• 30:51
  Speaker 2: whatever comes next. She removes the lavender eye pillow from
• 30:59
  Speaker 2: Jeremiah's face with one hand. He is delighted to see
• 31:04
  Speaker 2: the silver tray in her other hand. This time, there's
• 31:12
  Speaker 2: a small ceramic cup filled with green tea next to
• 31:17
  Speaker 2: a granola square covered in dark chocolate. She offers it
• 31:24
  Speaker 2: to him. while explaining they are about to enter the
• 31:28
  Speaker 2: last room. Jeremiah nods and enjoys his two treats. Once again,
• 31:41
  Speaker 2: they're delicious. On their way to the last room, Rosa
• 31:49
  Speaker 2: describes it in detail. The room is multiple pools, And
• 31:56
  Speaker 2: this part of the experience comes with unlimited time. Jeremiah's
• 32:04
  Speaker 2: eyes light up at the news. Rosa tells him that
• 32:08
  Speaker 2: he can spend the rest of the day there, if
• 32:11
  Speaker 2: he so desires. Entering the final room, Jeremiah sees that
• 32:20
  Speaker 2: there are three tranquil pools. Each one is unique in temperature, shape,
• 32:30
  Speaker 2: and water features. With a twinkle in her eye, Rosa
• 32:38
  Speaker 2: tells Jeremiah the pools are like a magical fairy tale.
• 32:44
  Speaker 2: When she sees that Jeremiah is curious to know more,
• 32:49
  Speaker 2: she explains that Some say the plunge pool is too cold.
• 32:57
  Speaker 2: The whirlpool, to some, is too hot. But the last pool,
• 33:03
  Speaker 2: where you can enjoy a waterfall and a back massage feature,
• 33:08
  Speaker 2: is just right. Jeremiah can try all three, or just one,
• 33:17
  Speaker 2: or two. It's completely up to him. Jeremiah weighs his
• 33:24
  Speaker 2: options and decides the just right pool is where he'll start.
• 33:29
  Speaker 2: And maybe he'll end there too, if it's as wonderful
• 33:33
  Speaker 2: as it looks. Rosa leaves him to enjoy his time alone.
• 33:43
  Speaker 2: Jeremiah slowly enters the pool, fully submerging his body. The
• 33:49
  Speaker 2: water must be the same temperature as he is He
• 33:56
  Speaker 2: swims over to the back massage feature. Thick streams of
• 34:03
  Speaker 2: water flow from multiple spouts. He presses his back into
• 34:09
  Speaker 2: the therapeutic feature and closes his eyes. After reveling in
• 34:17
  Speaker 2: the sensation for a few moments, he decides a lap
• 34:22
  Speaker 2: or two might be nice. Nothing too strenuous. it feels
• 34:30
  Speaker 2: good to move his arms and legs through the water.
• 34:35
  Speaker 2: The resistance is calming and reminds Jeremiah to slow down,
• 34:40
  Speaker 2: not just in the pool, but in life. He turns
• 34:48
  Speaker 2: over and floats on his back for a bend. With
• 34:55
  Speaker 2: his ears underwater, He can no longer hear the birds
• 34:59
  Speaker 2: chirping or the leaves rustling. He can only hear himself
• 35:07
  Speaker 2: breathe in and out. Jeremiah floats lazily, moving his hands
• 35:17
  Speaker 2: and feet back and forth in the just right water,
• 35:23
  Speaker 2: appreciating the solitude. There is no one else around. He
• 35:32
  Speaker 2: has the entire space to himself. It really is just right,
• 35:42
  Speaker 2: like the fairy tale. It's a reminder that everything in
• 35:49
  Speaker 2: life requires a delicate balance. As he drifts slowly through
• 35:57
  Speaker 2: the water, he remains aware of his relaxed breathing. In
• 36:09
  Speaker 2: and out. In and out. And in this moment, Jeremiah
• 36:25
  Speaker 2: knows that he has found more than peace. And tranquility.
• 36:34
  Speaker 2: He's also found the perfect balance. In mind. And body.
• 36:44
  Speaker 2: Floating peacefully. He smiles at this realization. His travels have
• 36:54
  Speaker 2: only just begun. But he's already made a precious discovery
• 37:02
  Speaker 2: that will stay with him forever.
