Speaker 1: Close your eyes and make yourself comfortable. Take a slow,
0:25
deep breath in through your nose and let slowly breathe
0:32
out through your mouth, letting go of all your worries.
0:39
As you feel yourself sinking into your nice, comfrey bed
0:44
and becoming still feeling very peaceful and very relaxed, Take
0:55
another slow, deep breath in through your nose and then
1:01
slowly breathe out through your mouth and release all of
1:07
your thoughts, letting them drift far away, or just blow
1:13
them out, just like blowing bubbles in water. Take another slow,
1:23
deep breath and then slowly breathe out through your mouth,
1:32
and know that in this very moment, all is well
1:37
in your world. Just relax. Now, breathe in again and
1:48
breathe out, feeling peace and relaxation wash over your entire body.
1:58
Feel it as it flows down from your nose and
2:01
your throat, Feel it flow down your chest and all
2:08
the way into your belly. And breathe in fully into
2:14
your belly, making it nice and big and round, and
2:23
breathe out slowly and deeply. Now, imagine that you are
2:34
a beautiful sea horse, a bright and shiny silver one,
2:40
and you shine so brightly that the stars think that
2:45
you shine brighter than they do, and you do. You
2:50
are like a bright and shining light for all to see,
2:56
and you are a guiding light to You are a
3:01
very magnificent and strong sea horse. And you have a curvy,
3:07
muscular tail and a beautiful bumpy skin, and you have
3:13
a nice big belly and a tube for a mouth.
3:20
And you're surrounded by a big, sparkling, deep blue ocean
3:26
with many different shades of blues and greens. And you
3:31
float gently on the currents of this ocean, and it
3:35
feels so peaceful here for you. It's so nice though
3:41
you would never want to be anywhere else but here,
3:46
This beautiful ocean is where you live your happy life
3:52
with all of your friends and your family, all your
3:55
seahorse brothers and sisters, and there are many of them.
4:03
There are lots of other colorful fish swimming nearby, and
4:08
they too are your friends. You have many friends here
4:13
deep within this ocean. And you see your friend Seymour,
4:19
who is a friendly starfish, and you see him moving
4:24
slowly across the ocean floor. This is his top speed,
4:30
by the way, He's moving as quickly as he can
4:36
because he's on his way home now, as it's nearly
4:38
his bedtime, and it's nearly yours too. You see a
4:44
beautiful rainbow fish called George. He too is hurrying home
4:49
as well. A black and white angelfish hurries past you
4:55
with a smile on her face. She is Betty and
4:59
she is one of your best friends. She tells you
5:03
it's time to go home now, and it's nearly bedtime,
5:07
and she doesn't want to miss the hot chocolate her
5:09
mum is making for her. You see a bright orange
5:14
and black clownfish called Sebastians swimming back and forth with
5:19
a great big smile on his face, and he says
5:23
he can stay out for another ten minutes to play,
5:26
but then he too has to go home, and off
5:29
he swims. As you look around you you see a
5:35
shy plan who occasionally comes out to say hello. Her
5:42
name is Sybil, but she is very shy, and so
5:46
she scuttles back into her shell and closes the lid. Finally,
5:53
you see Frank the fabulous Crab. He is a very
5:57
happy crab, but he always gets himself tangled in everything,
6:01
but he's still always very happy. In fact, you've never
6:06
known him to be not happy at all ever, you
6:15
are surrounded in this beautiful, deep blue and green ocean
6:20
by all of your underwater friends. It's one big, happy
6:24
family and you love it so very much. You are
6:29
free here, you are very peaceful here, and most of all,
6:35
you are very very happy here. So for just a
6:41
short moment, just play with your friends, well the ones
6:46
that are still out anyway, or maybe just have a
6:50
swim around. We'll just float and drift peacefully on the current.
8:52
Now it's a time for you to return to your
8:56
home to have a good night's sleep. Mhm, And you
9:01
do feel very sleepy. Now you hear a voice in
9:07
the distance, and it's your seahorse mum calling for you
9:12
to come home. Now you hear other mums calling out
9:17
for their children to come home as well, because it's
9:21
everybody's bedtime. You say good night and you swim off home.
9:31
You reach your home amongst the gently swaying reeds, and
9:36
you see your family waiting for you. You find your
9:41
favorite soft green reeds and begin to settle down with
9:45
your long tail wrapped around the reeds to keep you
9:49
safe for the night. As you settle down to rest,
9:55
waves of peace and calm wash over your entire body,
10:01
and the waves begin to relax you deeper and deeper.
10:06
As you sway gently, your tail is very secure so
10:12
that you won't float off in the night. You'll stay
10:16
safely right here while you rest tonight. You gently move
10:23
with the ocean current that sways you back and forth,
10:29
and as you relax here, you feel yourself becoming so
10:34
very sleepy. You feel yourself drifting peacefully with a soft
10:43
and gentle ocean current, but still staying in one place
10:48
because your tail holds you safely. You feel so amazing
10:56
floating here, and you know you'll sleep well to night
11:02
because your heart feels so happy and your body is
11:08
completely calm. And as you float on gentle waves of relaxation,
11:17
your body feels heavy as you drift off into peaceful sleep.
11:24
Then you feel so happy right now, so peaceful and calm,
11:31
as you go deeper and deeper into a beautiful sleep,
11:38
breathing quietly and gently. Now so peaceful, so calm, so
11:47
very safe. Good night, Little see yours, sweet dreams. A
