Speaker 1: Close your eyes and make yourself comfortable. Take a deep
0:27
breath in through your nose and slowly let the breath
0:34
out through your mouth. Again, take another deep breath in
0:43
through your nose and slowly and gently let the breath
0:50
out once again. Deep breath in and slowly breathe out. Now,
1:09
imagine yourself standing on a beautiful beach, glorious white sand,
1:18
and you can hear the calming sounds of the ocean.
1:22
You can hear the waves as they gently come into
1:26
the shore. As you listen to the waves, breathe in
1:32
deeply and slowly breathe out, breathing in cool, refretching air.
1:45
And every time you hear the waves breaking on the shore,
1:50
you become more and more relaxed, more and more calm,
1:56
and more and more peaceful. And you look out over
2:03
the ocean and see the amazing blue water. It's so
2:10
calm and peaceful as the waves gently come up onto
2:13
the sand and then slowly slide back down again back
2:20
into the beautiful blue ocean. And the day is warm
2:27
and fresh, and the sun is shining high up in
2:32
the sky, with only a few fluffy white clouds drifting
2:36
on by. Now further up on the beach is a cave,
2:44
and you get interested, so you go and take a
2:47
look at it. The cave is warm and the air
2:52
is moist, and it's actually very light inside it, so
2:56
you can see where you're going. You walk through to
3:02
the other end of the cave and you see it
3:05
comes out into a lovely tropical forest, and you can
3:10
hear the sounds of the forest birds singing. You can
3:14
even feel a gentle breeze on your face and it
3:18
feels ever so nice. You can hear the sounds of
3:23
small animals scurrying through the undergrowth as they go about
3:27
their daily business. As you walk further in, you see
3:34
a large rock room in this enchanting and amazing forest,
3:39
and he has a very large tree standing next to it,
3:44
and some of its branches are hanging low over the water,
3:49
and it's then thinking noses, it's actually a banaca tree,
3:53
and you can see lots of bananas hanging down and
3:57
they look very tasty too, and you are a hungry now,
4:03
so he decided to pull a few bananas off the
4:06
tree for your lunch. When suddenly a small fish leaps
4:11
out of the water and pulls a banana off the
4:13
tree and it disappears back into the water. Wow, a
4:18
banana eating fish. You didn't think fish ate bananas, Well
4:23
apparently this one does. You pull off a cuple for
4:28
yourself and sit down to enjoy the tasty bananas. And
4:35
as you sit there, the little fish again leaps out
4:38
of the water, wraps a banana, and goes back under
4:42
the wash again. Oh my, do you wonder what kind
4:47
of fish it is? Clearly it likes bananas. How strange.
4:55
As you sit eating your bananas, a little head hops
5:00
up out of the water and stares at you. It's
5:04
the little fish again. He smiles at him and sets
5:08
alone and talking fish that eats bananas? What next, you
5:15
think to yourself. The little fish tells you his name
5:21
is Pete, and he tells you that he is a piranha.
5:26
Oh no, you think to yourself, a piranha. You're very
5:31
sure that they eat people. The little fish see's your
5:36
look of alarm and tells you that he doesn't eat people.
5:38
Nobody he knows eats people. Besides, he says they don't
5:44
taste very nice. He only eats bananas. They are his
5:50
favorite food, well, the only food they would eat. Really.
5:57
He tells you that his family and friends only eat fish,
6:02
and they think he's very strange because he eats bananas,
6:07
so strange in fact, that they don't talk to him anymore,
6:11
and this makes him very sad. Indeed, Pete asks you
6:18
if you would like to come for a swim with him,
6:21
and you say yes, of course, as long as you
6:25
don't eat me, and you both give a little laugh.
6:30
So with a big leap, you jump into the rock
6:33
pool with an enormous splash. You swim around for a
6:37
little while, and then Pete asks you if you would
6:41
like to meet his friends who live deep within the ocean. Well,
6:46
you say yes, but you don't think you can hold
6:48
your breath that long. But Pete says not to worry.
6:53
He has a magic sweet you can eat and it
6:56
will let you breathe underwater. So you pop the sweet
7:01
in your mouth and dive deep under the water. Wow,
7:06
you can still breathe. It's just like breathing air, only
7:10
it's all watery up, and you can also talk too.
7:16
Pete takes you to the deep ocean floor and to
7:20
a little cave. Here is where his friends live, And
7:27
just then a big squigly tentacle slowly slides out of
7:32
the cave, followed by a rather big octopus, who is
7:38
then followed by many, many smaller octopus. You try to
7:43
count them, but there are just too many of them.
7:47
Pete gives a little laugh and tells you that his friend,
7:51
Olivia the big octopus has two hundred children. Wow, that's
7:58
a lot of children. Olivia smiles, and she says she
8:05
would like to show you around the cave where they
8:06
all live. And then she suggests she takes you on
8:11
a tour of the ocean floor. How fantastic is that?
8:18
So just for a little while, go with Olivia and
8:22
Pete and all the little octopus and see where they live,
8:28
see how they live. Then you can have a wonderful
8:33
tour of the ocean floor. Go and see what else
8:38
lives at the bottom of the ocean. See how many
8:40
different creatures you can find, and have fun. Now you
11:01
all returned to the cave. How wonderful that was to
11:07
see all the other creatures that live in the ocean.
11:13
What kind of creatures did you see? Where did they live?
11:20
How many did you see? Pete the banana eating banana
11:30
tells Olivia the octopus about the banana's heats, and he
11:36
tells her how tasty they are, and he teaches them
11:42
how good bananas are for them, very good for the bones,
11:47
Pete says. So Olivia decides that the next time she
11:52
surfaces above the water, she will give these tasty bananas
11:57
a try. Pete is extend because he knows that they
12:02
will love them just as much as he does. But
12:08
now it's time for you to return home. So you
12:12
say goodbye to Olivia and her children, and Pete guides
12:17
you back to the rock pool. You climb out of
12:22
the water and turn and say goodbye to Pete, and
12:25
you really hope you can see him again soon. Pete
12:30
tells you that you can come and visit him and
12:33
his friends anytime you want, So you wave goodbye to
12:40
Pete and begin your journey back home. As you walk,
12:47
breathe in deeply, filling your lungs with the wonderful, fresh
12:52
clean air, and your mind gently begins to drift into
12:59
a lovely comfortable silence, just letting all the thoughts pass
13:06
on by and watching any of those sorts just drift away.
13:14
Breathe deeply as you allow the sounds of the magnificent
13:18
ocean to wash over. You can you hear the gentle
13:24
sounds of the waves. They're still there. Breathe in deeply
13:33
and slowly and gently breathe out, and you are very
13:39
sleepy now, so tired, so sleepy. You've had a long day.
13:49
And then you realize that you are back in your
13:52
very own bed now, and you wonder how that happened.
13:59
It's a kind of magic. You snuggle down and get
14:05
very comfy, and you feel yourself going deeper and deeper
14:13
into beautiful, blissful sleep, feeling so peaceful, so calm, so relaxed,
14:26
and you can still hear the waves. With each passing wave,
14:32
your body becomes lighter and lighter, and you have become
14:39
like the waves, one with the oshan. So just listen
14:47
to the sounds of the beautiful deep eocean and just rest,
14:54
just sleep. Now, imagine the beautiful special rainbow floating just
15:04
above your head, and you can see the purples and
15:07
the blues. You can see the greens and the yellows,
15:12
the oranges and the reds, and maybe you can even
15:16
see some gold and silver too. See how it shines
15:21
so brightly. See the beautiful colors, and it's like the
15:28
colors are alive. That's because they are. Can you see them?
15:40
Each time you breathe out, this beautiful rainbow grows larger
15:45
and larger, and it starts to gently wash over you,
15:51
help you to relax, and you can actually feel the
15:56
colors washing over your body. Can you feel it? Can
16:02
you feel how warm it is, how it makes your
16:05
skin tingle just a little bit everywhere the colors touched you.
16:12
You feel yourself relaxing deeper and deeper, and you feel
16:18
so peaceful, so calm, and so very relaxed. As you
16:27
breathe in this beautiful rainbow. Light makes you feel so
16:32
safe and protected, and you feel so loved. That's because
16:38
you are safe, You are loved, and you are protected.
16:45
Always in front of you there is a flower bed
16:54
filled with daffodils, all different shades of yellow and all
16:59
shimmering in the sunlight. And you watch as they raise
17:04
their heads up to the sunlight, drawing all that they need,
17:11
all of it from the sun, the warmth to grow
17:15
and to stretch themselves, the light to raise themselves higher still,
17:21
and they are surrounded by the light, just as you are.
17:28
The yellow white rays of the sun lift you up too,
17:33
and you can feel your spirits rising you can feel
17:38
the inspiring rays of the sun shining down on your body,
17:43
and you can feel the joy beginning to enter your heart,
17:48
and you feel ever so happy. You see many other
17:54
different types of flowers, all swaying gently in the cool, calm,
18:01
all lifting their heads towards the sunlight, just like you,
18:08
And you realize you can hear running water, so you
18:14
stand off to see where it's coming from, and you
18:18
walk along the gravel pathway towards the sound, and as
18:24
you draw closer to it, you see before you a
18:27
wonderful shallow stream, and the water is so clear and
18:32
so inviting. You could even see tiny colorful fish as
18:38
they swim on by. And there are rocks in the
18:44
stream of yours, and the sound you heard is the
18:48
water flowing around and over them. The sun is shining
18:55
on the water, and it looks like a thousand stars
18:58
of bouncing all over it, and it's so beautiful, and
19:05
you decide to sit down on the bank by the
19:08
stream for just a while, just to relax and just
19:13
drift with your thoughts. And you gaze into the water,
19:18
feeling so peaceful, so calm, so relaxed. It's lovely. As
19:30
you sit there each thought that you have, just let
19:35
it go, place it into the water and watch it
19:40
as it washes away. And you watch as the thought
19:45
just gently sails off into the distance, bouncing along the
19:50
ripples of the water until it's out of sight. It's
19:55
quite funny to watch. Really. When you have another thought,
20:00
just do the same thing again and watch it as
20:03
it sails off into the distance. And why you've been
20:09
sitting here just thinking your little thoughts? You suddenly notice
20:15
sitting beside you is a little brown dug. He has
20:21
his eyes closed, and you notice his lovely shiny brown feathers.
20:28
You can even see some water drops on his folded wings,
20:33
and you wonder what he's doing. He opens his little
20:39
brown eyes and looks at you, and he tells you
20:43
that his name is Marvin, and that he comes here
20:46
every day at this same time just to meditate by
20:51
the stream. He says he likes to think of all
20:55
the things he is grateful for in his life, and
20:58
he likes to say thank you out loud because it
21:02
makes him feel really, really good. He asks you what
21:08
you would like to join him and be grateful with him. Well,
21:12
you say yes, but you're not really sure what you
21:17
have to do, so, Marvin explains. Marvin tells you that
21:24
all you have to do is think of all the
21:27
things you are grateful for. Things like your parents, your friends,
21:33
your pets, the ice cream that you ate last week,
21:37
your lovely soft bed, your new school bag to carry
21:41
your books, anything at all that you love and you
21:45
are grateful for. You get the idea. So you sit
21:51
with Marvin and close your eyes and in your mind
21:57
spend a few moments thinking of all all the things
22:00
you are grateful for, all of the good things in
22:04
your life, all of the things that make you happy.
22:10
So just sit there with Marvin for just a moment.
23:57
Marfa opened his eyes and you do too. Marvin says,
24:04
now it's time to say thank you for all the
24:07
good things in your life. So the two of you
24:11
say as loud as you can, thank you, thank you,
24:15
thank you. Doesn't that feel good, especially when you say
24:20
it really loudly. How do you feel right now? Can
24:26
you feel the big smile on your face? Can you
24:30
feel your heart all filled up with love and gratitude?
24:38
Marvin smiles at you and tells you that you did
24:42
very well for your first time. He's an expertcy he
24:46
does it all the time. But it's now time for
24:50
Marvin to go, so he says his goodbyes and waddles
24:55
off into the stream. You ask him where he's going.
25:00
He says he's going home now, but first he wants
25:04
to have a little swim, so he says good bye
25:07
again and swims off into the distance, quacking away happily
25:12
as he goes. You think he's very mysterious, this Marvin,
25:18
very very nice, but very mysterious. You don't know anything
25:22
about him at all, but you do like him. What
25:26
a lovely little mystic ducky is. You won't ever forget Marvin.
25:31
Hell you he now put your feet into the water
25:39
and feel the cool, refreshing flow of it running gently
25:43
over them, and it feels so wonderful, so refreshing and revitalizing.
25:50
And you look around you. You feel so free here,
25:54
so relaxed, and it feels so wonderful just to sit
25:59
with your feet in the cool, calm water, listening to
26:04
the sounds of nature, just you, the water and nature,
26:12
and you feel so very grateful just to be here.
26:18
So sit for just a moment and just listen, listen
26:25
to the sounds of the crystal clear calming water as
26:30
it soothes your very soul. Listen to the sounds of
26:35
crystal clear calming water as it makes your soul sink
26:41
with happiness. Now you realize now you are back in
26:56
your very own bed, feeling all warm and snuggling, and
27:05
it's time for you to sleep now, as your eyes
27:09
are becoming very heavy and your body is beginning to
27:13
go all soft with sleepiness. So you settle down and
27:20
pull the quilt or blanket up over your shoulders and
27:24
take a big deep breath in through your nose and
27:30
then slowly and gently breathe out through your mouth, and
27:36
you feel so happy you met Marvin today, so blessed,
27:42
so grateful that you take another deep breath in and
27:49
slowly and gently breathe out one last time, deep breath
27:58
in and slowly and gently breathe out, And just as
28:08
the wave of sleepiness is coming all over your body,
28:15
you see once again Marvin's happy little face, lovely Marvin, Marvin,
28:23
the Mystic Duck, and you give a great, big soft
28:28
sigh as you smile and drift gently into the best
28:35
night sleep ever. Now, imagine that you're standing in a beautiful,
28:45
lush green field and it's raining very lightly. You look
28:51
down at your feet and you notice you don't have
28:54
any shoes on. You wriggle your toes in the soft,
28:58
cool and damp grass, and it feels so good. You
29:02
feel so good to connect to mother Earth yourself, and
29:06
your feet start to tingle just a little bit. You
29:12
can smell the beautiful aroma of the wet grass, and
29:16
it smells so pure, and tiny rain drops glisten on
29:21
the lush green leaves. You close your eyes and feel
29:29
the warm sun on your face. The rain has stopped
29:33
now and there is a gentle breeze blowing, and you
29:37
stretch your arms out either side of you feel the
29:40
breeze sweep over your entire body. You feel great, so
29:47
much better, more calm and peaceful. You look down and
29:53
you see a path, really see all the details of
29:57
the path, what it means from Is it narrow or
30:03
is it wide? Is the path winding or is it straight?
30:09
You decide it's your path. You begin to walk and
30:17
see the path that's leading you into a beautiful and
30:20
majestic forest, and you can enter that forest. What can
30:25
you see? What can you hear? You look over towards
30:33
the trees and decide to take a look because it
30:36
kind of looks like a mini forest. And as you
30:41
get nearer, you see some very big, beautiful, weeping willow
30:45
trees and their branches are so long they're almost touching
30:49
the ground. The leaves glisten in the sunlight and they
30:55
shimmer and shine with a beautiful, silvery green color. You
31:00
walk amongst them, touching their leaves with your fingers and
31:04
they feel smooth and silky to the touch. And as
31:08
you look up, you can see the sun is shining
31:11
through the branches, almost making it look as if the
31:15
tree itself is moving and swaying in the cool breeze.
31:22
As you walk deeper into the forest, it feels very magical,
31:28
and you notice that all of your senses seem to
31:31
sharpen as you walk deeper and deeper into it. It
31:34
feels so lovely and peaceful. Here up ahead, you notice
31:41
that the forest starts to thin as it opened into
31:44
a clearing. And as you approach the clearing, you notice
31:50
it's lighter and brighter than the forest, and it has
31:53
a calm and peaceful energy. Standing you see a very
31:59
large tree and you are magnetically drawn towards the tree.
32:04
As you get closer, you just now and feel that
32:08
this tree is a very ancient and very wise old tree.
32:14
It has very large roots all around it, and they're
32:18
growing deep, deep down into the earth, and the trunk
32:21
is wide and majestic looking. As you stand there looking
32:29
at this ancient and wise old tree, you become aware
32:32
of a chattering sound and you wonder what it is.
32:37
You look up, you see something move very quickly. Then
32:40
you see another movement, and another one, and you wonder
32:43
what on earth could it be. Then suddenly everything goes quiet.
32:50
You keep looking now, and it's then that you see
32:54
a little head pop out from between the leaves. It's
32:58
a squirrel, a beautiful red squirrel with little tofty ears.
33:05
He grins at you and says hello. He tells you
33:08
his name is Joseph. Then other little heads pop out too,
33:14
more little red squirrels, and they're all smiling at you
33:18
and looking at you with great, big, beautiful brown eyes.
33:23
You say hello to them, and you ask them what
33:25
they're doing here. Joseph tells you that this is their home,
33:31
it's where they live. They ask you if you would
33:34
like to join them and see exactly where they live.
33:39
Well of course you would love to, but you're a
33:42
lot bigger than they are, and you wonder if you
33:45
can fit in the tree with them. You don't think
33:48
you can. Joseph says you can do magic and asks
33:53
you if you would like to be a squirrel for
33:56
the day, then that way you can definitely fit in
33:59
the tree. You think this is a wonderful idea, so
34:04
Joseph pulls out a little silk bag. He reaches inside
34:09
with his tiny paw and pulls out very sparkly magic dust.
34:15
It shimmers and it shines very brightly. He then throws
34:18
it down on top of your head, well a face.
34:22
Nothing seems to be happening, But then you find yourself
34:27
getting smaller and smaller. You find that you are shrinking,
34:35
and at the same time, you feel like you are
34:39
growing a tail, a very big fluffy tail. Your hands
34:47
and your feet have turned it to little paws, and
34:50
your whole body has fair growing on your skin. You
34:55
even have a little twitchy squirrel nose too, and toughty
34:59
years just like Joseph. You think this is fantastic, How
35:05
exciting you have become a squirrel. Joseph says not to worry,
35:11
though you won't stay like that. It's just for today,
35:15
or if you want to, you can have a sleepover
35:17
with them, and it can be for tomorrow too. You
35:21
can have your very own house in the tree, and
35:26
you can be a squirrel with them overnight as well,
35:30
and you say, oh yes please. You suddenly realize that
35:36
you can do exactly what the squirrels can do, so
35:40
you scamp up the trunk of the tree and you
35:42
are moving very fast. Indeed, then almost immediately you're standing
35:48
right next to Joseph and his friends. Joseph asks you
35:52
if you would like to explore their home now. Well, obviously,
35:56
you say yes. They all turn and leap forward on
36:00
to another branch, and it kind of looks like they
36:03
are flying. You're not really sure if you can do this,
36:08
but Joseph shouts to you, just believe you can do it,
36:13
and you will. So you leap forward and realize that
36:18
you are doing it too, and it does feel like flying.
36:22
You all jump from branch to branch at lightning speed,
36:25
and it feels wonderful. You believed you could do it,
36:31
and you did. Joseph leads the way to his home.
36:38
He has a lovely little white house tucked away amongst
36:41
the branches and the leaves. His friend's houses are dotted
36:46
all over the tree somehow, some low, and they look
36:50
really lovely. Little lights are shining inside them, and they
36:56
look ever supposing. On the outside, there are hundreds of
37:01
tiny fireflies, all shining the light for you. There is
37:06
a rainbow of color everywhere, and each tiny firefly is
37:13
a different one, each hamming its own unique color, so
37:18
many different variations of colors, and you look at them
37:22
in complete or it looks amazing. Then Joseph leads you
37:29
to another little house. He tells you that this is
37:33
your house. Oh wow, you have your own, very very
37:38
very own house. That's fantastic. Joseph opens a door for you,
37:46
and inside the warm light from the little lamps or
37:50
making your house like everisir Coosian friendly. Joseph tells you
37:55
that you can decorate your house anyway you would like,
37:58
and they will help you. So go ahead and design
38:03
the inside of your house. Now, make it look just
38:06
how you would want it to be. Anything that makes
38:09
you feel happy when you think about it, you can
38:11
have inside your house. Think about all the things that
38:16
make you feel good, all the things that make you smile,
38:21
maybe you would like your favorite toy here. Maybe you
38:25
would like great, big, soft and plump cushions everywhere, or
38:29
a sofa and chairs, or maybe you would just like
38:33
it as a bedroom. You decide, see it all in
38:38
your mind's eye. Can you see it? So, just for
38:44
a little while, create your house with the help of
38:49
Joseph and his friends. Oh what a beautiful home you
40:59
have created. This is a place to let go of
41:04
all your thoughts, all of your worries. This is a
41:09
place to let go of anything that may make you
41:12
feel sad. It's very safe here and you will only
41:17
ever feel happy whilst you are here. You have created
41:24
your very own stash of nuts to Nibeloon. You didn't
41:27
notice before, but there they are by the fireplace. Oh goody.
41:35
You're feeling a bit sleepy now though, and would really
41:39
like to go to bed, so you thank Joseph and
41:42
his friends for helping you create the most perfect home.
41:47
Joseph tells you that they too are feeling sleepy, and
41:51
he tells you they can all play again tomorrow. So
41:56
you all say good night to each other, close your
42:00
front door, and head off to your bedroom, the one
42:04
you created just for you. Now that you have the
42:09
most perfect bedroom. You climb up on the most perfect
42:14
bed and you lay your head on the soft and
42:17
fluffy pillows and give a big sigh of happiness. You
42:23
look over to a large window with beautiful curtains hanging
42:27
either side of it, and through this window you can
42:31
see the night sky and the beautiful stars shining just
42:35
like diamonds, twinkling away. You stare at them for a
42:41
few minutes and think how lucky you are to have
42:44
met Joseph and his friends. They are so kind. You
42:49
really are looking forward to playing with them tomorrow. But
42:54
your eyes are feeling really heavy now, and your body
42:58
is feeling ever satire. So you take a deep breath
43:05
into your nose and gently blow it out from your mouth.
43:14
Take another deep breath and gently blow it out from
43:20
your mouth. You feel very sleepy now, so tired, so
43:26
it relaxed and peaceful, and you feel a gentle wave
43:32
of sleepiness starting at your feet. And it's a warm
43:37
and gentle feeling, kind of like how a feather feels
43:42
when you brush it against your skin. So soft and gentle,
43:46
but a little bit tickling, and you can feel your
43:50
toes going to sleep. It feels all warm and tingling,
43:55
ever so soft You feel is sooth gentle wave of
44:01
sleepiness coming up your calves and your shins, and you
44:07
feel it going up your thighs. You think your legs
44:10
have already gone to sleep. You feel so tired, so sleepy,
44:18
so very happy. The beautiful wave of sleepiness travels all
44:31
the way up your body, down your arms, and into
44:35
your hands, making your body feel very very heavy, very
44:41
very tired, very very sleepy. And this gentle, warm wave
44:49
of sleepiness travels up your face and over the top
44:54
of your head and down the back of your neck.
44:59
So tired, now, so sleepy. You feel nice and warm
45:06
and snuggly under your soft quilt and fairy fluffy pillow.
45:13
So just have a little sleep now, night night. Now,
45:19
Imagine that you are in the most beautiful and amazing garden,
45:25
and you can feel the soft grasp beneath your feet.
45:29
You can hear the fluttering of birds. You can hear
45:31
the wings as they fly around you looking for insects
45:35
to eat. You can even hear them singing in the trees.
45:42
And your beautiful garden is surrounded by bright green bushes,
45:48
and they become brighter and sharper as you look around,
45:52
and there are beautiful statues dotted all over the place,
45:57
and the plants that you see are so vibrant, and
46:00
the flowers smell wonderful, and it tickles your nose just
46:04
a little bit. Breathe in the fresh crisp air. It
46:11
feels so good to be here. Now. This garden is very,
46:18
very big, and you notice some movement further into the garden.
46:22
You wonder what it is. It's then you can see
46:26
ladies in long flowing dresses and men carrying swords on
46:30
their hips, and you wonder who they are. Can you
46:34
see them? They're all laughing and having fun. In fact,
46:39
they all seem to be having a purely good time.
46:42
It's like they're having their own garden party. You can
46:46
hear medieval music in the background, and it has a
46:50
very friendly atmosphere, and you feel so peaceful and calm.
46:55
It's so relaxing here. As you look around, you see
47:01
horses too, and you wonder how on earth they got here.
47:05
You can even smell the horses a bit wiy saw them.
47:11
As you continue to walk forward, you notice a path
47:14
before you, and its stones are smooth and they glisten
47:18
in the sunlight. So you step onto this path and
47:22
continue to walk forward, and you wonder where does it go?
47:27
Where will it lead you? With each step you take,
47:33
you can feel yourself becoming more and more relaxed, and
47:37
you feel so peaceful following this gently winding path, and
47:42
the music you were hearing is slowly fading. As you
47:46
walk further away from it, you notice two butterflies floating
47:51
past you. It's like they were dancing on the gentle
47:54
breeze just for you. You watch them as they land
47:58
and settle beautiful, bright yellow flower and they just sit
48:03
there with their wings gently opening and closing, cooling off
48:08
a thing in the distance, you hear the trickling sounds
48:13
of water, so you move towards a sound to see
48:17
where it's coming from, and you find yourself standing before
48:22
a great stone fountain. What does your fountain look like?
48:28
Is it made of stone or is it made of marble?
48:32
Notice the details? Are there any curves on your fountain?
48:38
Is it all straight lines? You can see and hear
48:43
the splashing of the water as it runs down the fountain,
48:47
and you know that the water in this fountain is
48:51
here to refresh you, and it feels very special. To
48:55
be here feels like a very special place. You see
49:01
a cup on the edge of the fountain and you
49:03
pick it up. It's not really a cup, it's a chalice.
49:09
But you feel very thirsty now, so you eagerly dip
49:12
your chalice into the water you're bringing up to your
49:16
lips and you sip the water, drinking every last drop.
49:22
You feel overwhelmingly grateful for this water because it makes
49:25
you feel so alive and so refreshed, and you're so
49:29
thankful for this healing and rejuvenation. It makes you feel
49:34
as if everything has been healed in your body, and
49:38
it makes you feel that your mind is now very
49:41
clear and that nothing can ever bother you again. This
49:45
fountain inspires you to appreciate the gifts in your life.
49:50
It makes you so very grateful for all of the
49:53
people that love you and who are a part of
49:55
your life, your family, your friends, well for everyone really.
50:03
Suddenly you hear a rustling in the bushes nearby, and
50:07
you wonder what it is, so you walk over and
50:10
take a look. As you part the bushes, you see
50:15
a tiny, little white rabbit. He is very small and
50:19
has very long, droopy ears, and the saddest brown eyes
50:23
you have ever seen. You slowly and gently reach out
50:28
your hand to him to show him that he has
50:31
nothing to be afraid of. He looks back at you
50:34
and gives your hand a little sniff. And as he
50:37
does this, something very special happens. You can hear his
50:43
thoughts in your mind. Well, rabbits can't talk, so it's
50:47
only natural that he can speak to you with his mind,
50:50
isn't it. And you hear him saying in your mind,
50:56
please help me. I am so thirsty, but because I
50:59
am so small, I cannot reach the fountain to have
51:02
a drink. Please will you help me? Well, of course
51:06
you will, you say. You take the chalice and fill
51:10
it with water, and then gently place it on the
51:12
ground in front of the tiny rabbit, and you watch
51:16
as he drinks and drinks and drinks. Wow, you think yourself,
51:19
he really is thirsty. When the little white rabbit has
51:25
finished all of the water in the cup, he says,
51:27
thank you, But he still looks so sad. So you
51:31
ask him why is he still so sad? And in
51:36
your mind you hear him reply that he doesn't know
51:40
what to do when you are gone, because he still
51:43
can't reach the fountain, and he still won't be able
51:46
to drink the water. So you look around you to
51:50
find something you can build some steps with. If you
51:53
do that, then the little rabbit will never have to
51:56
worry again. So you find some very large stones, and
52:03
you gather them all up and begin to make steps
52:06
for the little white rabbit. The little white rabbit sits
52:10
and watches you. Eventually you make enough steps and ask
52:16
the little white rabbit to try and climb up them.
52:19
He's a little bit afraid at first, but with you
52:21
chuning them on, he bravely climbs up all of the steps.
52:26
He reaches the top and he looks at you with
52:28
amazement and such happiness on his little face. He stands
52:34
on the rim of the fountain and begins to drink
52:37
the water. When he's finished, he looks at you with
52:42
the biggest grin, and his big brown eyes are shining
52:46
with happiness. He can't thank you enough. He tells you
52:50
now that he will never have to worry about how
52:53
he can get to the water. He tells you that
52:56
he's going to tell all of his friends so that
52:59
they too can The little white rabbit suddenly gives a
53:04
little laugh, and he says, because he was so thirsty,
53:08
he forgot to tell you his name. So he tells
53:11
you his name is Sebastian, So you tell him your name.
53:16
You even shake hands, well hand in a poor So
53:21
for a few moments, spend some time talking to Sebastian
53:25
and get to know him a little bit. Maybe he
53:28
will introduce you to his friends. Look around you some more.
53:34
Maybe you and Sebastian can visit the ladies in the
53:37
long dresses and the gentleman who carries swords on the hibs.
53:41
Maybe the two of you can join in the garden party.
53:46
So have a look, have fun, see when else is
53:49
out there.
54:04
Speaker 2: In using the st the speech.
56:35
Speaker 1: Now it's time for you to leave the garden and
56:38
say goodbye to Sebastian. He thanks you once more for
56:43
all of your kindness to him. He tells you that
56:48
he hopes that you will soon come back to visit him,
56:52
and he says that next time he'll take you to
56:54
the underground village. Maybe you can even have a sleep
56:58
over there. You wave goodbye and begin to walk back
57:03
along the path. The trees above you are very strong.
57:08
The leaves are glistening in the sunlight. Without the water
57:13
from this fountain. It would not stand so tall and
57:16
so strong. The flowers, maybe they would not smile as much,
57:22
the animals would go tasty. But they are happy because
57:28
of you. They are happy because you are so grateful
57:33
for everything in your life. It's like a ripple effect.
57:38
When you are happy, it shows. It can be seen
57:41
in your eyes and in your smile, and the world
57:45
can feel your happiness. So the world will smile too,
57:50
because the world will feel happy just like you. And
57:55
you feel ever so happy now, full of joy and peace,
58:00
and always remember that you can return to this garden
58:04
whenever you would like, and you can fill your cup
58:08
with gratitude, and of course to see Sebastia again. But
58:14
you feel very sleepy now, so tired and relaxed, and
58:21
you feel a gentle wave of sleepiness starting at your feet.
58:26
You can feel your toes going to sleep, and it
58:29
feels all warm and tingling and ever soft. You can
58:34
feel the soothing, gentle wave of sleepiness coming up your
58:39
calves and your shins. You can feel it going up
58:44
into your thighs, and you think your legs have already
58:47
gone to sleep. You feel very tired now, so sleepy,
58:54
so happy and it feels hard to open your eyes
58:58
because they feel so head And this beautiful wave of
59:03
sleepiness travels all the way up your body, down your arms,
59:09
and into your hands, making your body feel very very heavy,
59:16
very very tired, and very very sleepy. And this gentle,
59:24
warm wave of sleepiness travels up your face, over the
59:30
top of your head, and down the back of your neck. Oh,
59:34
you feel so tired, now so sleepy. You feel nice
59:42
and warm and snugly. So just have a little sleep now,
59:50
night night, sleep tight.
1:01:38
