  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, and now breathe out. Breathe
• 1:59
  in and breathe out. Breathe in and breathe out one
• 2:11
  more time. Breathe in and breathe out. And every time
• 2:20
  you breathe in, you become more and more relaxed, and
• 2:25
  you can feel your body becoming very loose and soft
• 2:30
  and very relaxed. Now, imagine a beautiful white light surrounding
• 2:39
  your whole body. A light so bright that it shines
• 2:44
  brighter than a thousand suns. And this beautiful, pure white
• 2:50
  light is surrounding your whole body, and it's always protecting you.
• 3:00
  Now in your mind's eye, see yourself sitting on an
• 3:04
  old wooden bench in a beautiful walled garden, and you
• 3:10
  can feel a gentle breeze on your face, and you
• 3:14
  can feel the warmth of the sun as it touches
• 3:17
  your skin. And as you look up, you see the
• 3:22
  beautiful baby blue color of the sky, so pretty, and
• 3:29
  you can see a few cloud slowly floating past, just
• 3:34
  drifting along, with no worse special to be, just like
• 3:39
  you at this moment in time, just drifting along, with
• 3:44
  no worse special to be, but here right now, in
• 3:50
  this very moment. Now, I'm going to tell you a
• 3:55
  little story about a little brown mouse caorn Max and
• 4:00
  his best friend Sofia. Once upon a time, in a
• 4:07
  magical ancient forest, deep deep in the woods, there lived
• 4:13
  a little brown mouse named Max. And Max had lovely,
• 4:18
  big brown eyes that sparkled with joy and mischief. He
• 4:22
  had a cozy little house inside the trunk of the tree,
• 4:26
  where he lived happily with his best friend Sofia the
• 4:29
  squirrel who had an enormous, big fluffy tail. The house
• 4:36
  was small, but they loved it very much. They had
• 4:40
  all their favorite things in there too. Max had his
• 4:44
  pencils and sketch books because he loves to draw. He
• 4:49
  had a little table by the window where the sun
• 4:51
  shone through, and he would sit for hours just drawing
• 4:54
  the forest outside and the little animals who lived there.
• 5:00
  Sofia loved to knit and crochet, and she had a
• 5:04
  big basket of different colored walls and would make blankets
• 5:08
  and scarves for all of their friends. And she would
• 5:11
  sit beside Max in peace and quiet, just happily knitting away.
• 5:18
  They had everything they needed till have a happy life,
• 5:22
  but most of all, they had each other, and they
• 5:26
  really were the best of friends. One beautiful sunny day,
• 5:33
  Max and Sofia decided to throw a party to celebrate
• 5:37
  their friendship. They invited all of their woodland friends and
• 5:42
  they prepared delicious jellies, cakes, and ice cream for everyone
• 5:47
  to enjoy. They even decorated their tree with colorful balloons,
• 5:52
  adding a festive touch to the celebration, and they traped
• 5:56
  beautiful little colored lights all around the nearby trees. It
• 6:00
  was so pretty. They had friends who were elves and fairies.
• 6:09
  They had friends who were ladybirds and fireflies, and the
• 6:13
  little fireflies were like sparkling floating lights, just twinkling all
• 6:17
  around the air. And their party was filled with laughter
• 6:22
  and fun as the guests played party games like musical
• 6:26
  chairs and pinned the tail on the donkey. Max and
• 6:31
  Sofia danced around in circles, their laughter echoing through the forest,
• 6:36
  and sometimes they would all just sit around and just
• 6:39
  chat to each other. They just loved being together. They
• 6:43
  were such good friends. They could talk about anything they
• 6:46
  wanted and everybody listened. Max and Sophia had parties every year,
• 6:55
  inviting all their woodland friends to celebrate their friendship. Each
• 6:59
  and 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
  That was a good party that one. Everybody found something
• 7:52
  and everybody got a gift. But as the years went by,
• 7:57
  Max and Sofia's parties became legendary amongst their woodland friends.
• 8:03
  Everyone looked forward to them with great anticipation, knowing that
• 8:08
  they would be filled with fun and laughter. Max and
• 8:12
  Sophia were very grateful for their wonderful friends and cherished
• 8:16
  each moment spent together. They knew that their friendship would
• 8:21
  last a lifetime, just like the memories of those magical
• 8:25
  parties in the ancient Deep Tree in the forest. As
• 8:31
  the sun began to set, the party came to an end,
• 8:35
  but the memories of that lovely sunny day filled with
• 8:40
  fun and laughter would remain in their hearts forever. Their
• 8:45
  parties continued to evolve over time, with new games, activities,
• 8:50
  decorations added each year, but one thing remained constant, the
• 8:55
  love and joy that filled the air as they celebrated
• 9:00
  with their friends. For this, Max and Sophia were very,
• 9:07
  very grateful. After all their friends had gone home that day.
• 9:14
  Max the little brown mouse and Sophia the squirrel sat
• 9:20
  together in front of the cozy fire in their little
• 9:24
  tiny house in the base of the tree and smiled
• 9:28
  to each other. They were so very happy. They loved
• 9:33
  their woodland friends so very much. But the night had
• 9:39
  drawn in and the sky had darkened, so they knew
• 9:43
  it was time for them to go to bed. They
• 9:47
  said good night to each other and went to their
• 9:49
  own bedrooms, climbed into bed, and promptly fell asleep. After all,
• 9:56
  they had had a very busy day. But now it's
• 10:01
  time for you to sleep, So slow down your breathing,
• 10:07
  and your whole body is perfectly calm and relaxed and
• 10:13
  ready for sleep. But before you do, just say thank
• 10:18
  you to your body. Say thank you to your breath,
• 10:24
  Say thank you to your eyes, to your nose, to
• 10:29
  your ears, Say thank you to all of the things
• 10:34
  you are grateful for. And say thank you for all
• 10:39
  of the good people in your life. To your pets
• 10:44
  if you have any, and say thank you to them
• 10:50
  all for making you feel safe and loved. Now feel
• 10:57
  all of this love and gratitude surround your whole body,
• 11:01
  feel its warmth, or because these people love you and
• 11:08
  always remember you are safe, you are loved, and you
• 11:14
  are protected. Now imagine that the very top of your
• 11:21
  head opens up just a little bit, and outfloat any
• 11:27
  thoughts that might still be trapped inside, thoughts that you
• 11:32
  no longer need, and they find their way into the beautiful,
• 11:38
  starry night sky far above you and drift out of sight.
• 11:44
  Now close the top of your head, and soon you'll
• 11:50
  be sound asleep, off on a peaceful journey into dreamland
• 11:55
  that will carry you all the way through until morning.
• 12:00
  Maybe you will dream about Max and so Fear. Maybe
• 12:04
  they will invite you to one of the lovely happy
• 12:07
  parties and you can meet all of their friends. But
• 12:12
  you feel so sleepy now, so tired, so calm, so peaceful,
• 12:22
  as you slowly and gently drift into a lovely sleep,
• 12:28
  and when you wake up in the morning, you will
• 12:31
  feel so bright and late, and you will feel so refreshed,
• 12:39
  ready to begin the new day ahead night.
• 12:43
