  Speaker 1: Close your eyes and make yourself comfortable. Take a deep
• 0:34
  breath in and slowly and gently breathe out. Again, take
• 0:45
  a deep breath in through your nose, and slowly and
• 0:50
  gently breathe out through your mouth. One more time, deep
• 0:59
  breath in, and slowly and gently breathe out through your mouth,
• 1:08
  and just relax. Now tense up all of your muscles
• 1:16
  and hold it for a few seconds. Hold the muscles,
• 1:23
  and then let go, allowing your arms and legs to
• 1:27
  go nice and limp. Now again, breathe in deeply in
• 1:33
  through your nose, really filling your lungs with air, and
• 1:38
  now breathe out slowly, releasing all the air from your lungs.
• 1:46
  So breathe in again, slowly and deeply, and hold your
• 1:51
  breath for just a moment.
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: And now breathe out. Breathe in and breathe out. Breathe
• 2:06
  in and breathe out.
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: One more time.
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: Breathe in and breathe out.
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: And every time you breathe in, you become more and
• 2:23
  more relaxed, and you can feel your body becoming very
• 2:28
  loose and soft.
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: And very relaxed.
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: Now, imagine a beautiful white light surrounding your whole body.
• 2:41
  A light so bright that it shines brighter than a
• 2:45
  thousand suns. And this beautiful, pure white light is surrounding
• 2:52
  your whole body and is always protecting you. Now in
• 3:00
  your mind's eye, see yourself sitting on an old wooden
• 3:05
  bench in a beautiful walled garden, and you can feel
• 3:10
  a gentle breeze on your face, and you can feel
• 3:15
  the warmth of the sun as it touches your skin.
• 3:19
  And as you look up, you see the beautiful baby
• 3:23
  blue collar of the sky, so pretty, and you can
• 3:29
  see a few cloud slowly floating past, just drifting along,
• 3:35
  with no worse special to be, just like you at
• 3:40
  this moment in time, just drifting along with no worse
• 3:45
  special to be, but here right now, in this very moment. Now,
• 3:54
  I'm going to tell you a little story about a
• 3:57
  little brown mouse caorn Max and his best friend Sofia.
• 4:05
  Once upon a time, in a magical ancient forest, deep
• 4:11
  deep in the woods, there lived a little brown mouse
• 4:14
  named Max. And Max had lovely, big brown eyes that
• 4:19
  sparkled with joy and mischief. He had a cozy little
• 4:23
  house inside the trunk of the tree, where he lived
• 4:27
  happily with his best friend Sofia the squirrel who had
• 4:31
  an enormous, big fluffy tail. Their house was small, but
• 4:37
  they loved it very much. They had all their favorite
• 4:41
  things in there too. Max had his pencils and sketch
• 4:45
  books because he loves to draw. He had a little
• 4:49
  table by the window where the sun shone through, and
• 4:52
  he would sit for hours just drawing the forest outside
• 4:56
  and the little animals who lived there. Sofia loved to
• 5:01
  knit and crochet, and she had a big basket of
• 5:05
  different colored walls and would make blankets and scarves for
• 5:08
  all of their friends. And she would sit beside Max
• 5:13
  in peace and quiet, just happily knitting away. They had
• 5:19
  everything they needed till have a happy life, but most
• 5:23
  of all, they had each other, and they really were
• 5:27
  the best of friends. One beautiful sunny day, Max and
• 5:33
  Sofia decided to throw a party to celebrate their friendship.
• 5:39
  They invited all of their woodland friends, and they prepared
• 5:43
  delicious jellies, cakes, and ice cream for everyone to enjoy.
• 5:48
  They even decorated their tree with colorful balloons, adding a
• 5:53
  festive touch to the celebration, and they traped beautiful little
• 5:57
  colored lights all around the nearby trees. It was so pretty.
• 6:05
  They had friends who were elves and fairies. They had
• 6:09
  friends who were ladybirds and fireflies, and the little fireflies
• 6:14
  were like sparkling floating lights, just twinkling all around the air.
• 6:20
  And their party was filled with laughter and fun as
• 6:23
  the guests played party games like musical chairs and pinned
• 6:28
  the tail on the donkey. Max and Sofia danced around
• 6:32
  in circles, their laughter echoing through the forest, and sometimes
• 6:37
  they would all just sit around and just chat to
• 6:39
  each other. They just loved being together. They were such
• 6:44
  good friends. They could talk about anything they wanted and
• 6:47
  everybody listened. Max and Sophia had parties every year, inviting
• 6:55
  all their woodland friends to celebrate their friendship. Each and
• 6:59
  every year happened, and each party was unique and special,
• 7:05
  with different themes and decorations. One year, they had a
• 7:10
  beach party complete with sand castle building contests and water
• 7:15
  balloon fights. Another year, they had a costume party where
• 7:20
  everyone dressed up in silly outfits and played games like
• 7:24
  bobbing for apples. Another year, Max and Sophia decided to
• 7:30
  have a camping party. They set up tents and built
• 7:35
  a bonfire, roasting marshmallows and telling ghost stories late into
• 7:39
  the night. The next year, they had a scavenger hunt
• 7:43
  party where their friends searched for hidden treasures throughout the forest.
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: That was a good party that one.
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: Everybody found something and everybody got a gift. But as
• 7:55
  the years went by, Max and Sofia's parties became legendary
• 8:01
  amongst their woodland friends. Everyone looked forward to them with
• 8:05
  great anticipation, knowing that they would be filled with fun
• 8:09
  and laughter. Max and Sophia were very grateful for their
• 8:14
  wonderful friends and cherished each moment spent together. They knew
• 8:20
  that their friendship would last a lifetime, just like the
• 8:24
  memories of those magical parties in the ancient Deep Tree
• 8:28
  in the forest. As the sun began to set, the
• 8:34
  party came to an end, but the memories of that
• 8:37
  lovely sunny day filled with fun and laughter would remain
• 8:42
  in their hearts forever. Their parties continued to evolve over time,
• 8:48
  with new games, activities, decorations added each year, but one
• 8:53
  thing remained constant, the love and joy that filled the
• 8:58
  air as they celebrated with their friends. For this, Max
• 9:04
  and Sophia were very, very grateful. After all their friends
• 9:12
  had gone home that day. Max the little brown mouse
• 9:17
  and Sophia the squirrel sat together in front of the
• 9:22
  cozy fire in their little tiny house in the base
• 9:26
  of the tree and smiled to each other. They were
• 9:30
  so very happy. They loved their woodland friends so very much.
• 9:38
  But the night had drawn in and the sky had darkened,
• 9:42
  so they knew it was time for them to go
• 9:44
  to bed. They said good night to each other and
• 9:48
  went to their own bedrooms, climbed into bed, and promptly
• 9:54
  fell asleep. After all, they had had a very busy day.
• 10:01
  But now it's time for you to sleep, So slow
• 10:05
  down your breathing, and your whole body is perfectly calm
• 10:11
  and relaxed and ready for sleep. But before you do,
• 10:18
  just say thank you to your body. Say thank you
• 10:22
  to your breath, Say thank you to your eyes, to
• 10:27
  your nose, to your ears, Say thank you to all
• 10:33
  of the things you are grateful for. And say thank
• 10:38
  you for all of the good people in your life.
• 10:42
  To your pets if you have any, and say thank
• 10:49
  you to them all for making you feel safe and loved.
• 10:57
  Now feel all of this love and gratitude surround your
• 10:59
  whole body, feel its warmth, all because these people love you,
• 11:07
  and always remember you are safe, you are loved, and
• 11:14
  you are protected. Now imagine that the very top of
• 11:21
  your head opens up just a little bit, and outfloat
• 11:26
  any thoughts that might still be trapped inside, thoughts that
• 11:31
  you no longer need, and they find their way into
• 11:37
  the beautiful, starry night sky far above you and drift
• 11:42
  out of sight. Now close the top of your head,
• 11:48
  and soon you'll be sound asleep, off on a peaceful
• 11:53
  journey into dreamland that will carry you all the way
• 11:57
  through until morning. Maybe you will dream about Max and
• 12:02
  so Fear. Maybe they will invite you to one of
• 12:06
  the lovely happy parties and you can meet all of
• 12:09
  their friends. But you feel so sleepy now, so tired,
• 12:17
  so calm, so peaceful, as you slowly and gently drift
• 12:25
  into a lovely sleep, and when you wake up in
• 12:29
  the morning, you will feel so bright and late, and
• 12:35
  you will feel so refreshed, ready to begin the new
• 12:41
  day ahead night nights.
