  Speaker 2: Hmmm.
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: Close your eyes and make yourself comfortable. Take a big,
• 0:33
  deep breath in through your nose and slowly and gently
• 0:39
  breathe out through your mouth. Take another deep breath in
• 0:48
  and slowly and gently breathe out through your mouth. One
• 0:57
  last time, deep breath in and slowly and gently breathe
• 1:05
  out through your mouth. Feel a gentle rhythm of your breath.
• 1:15
  Take a moment to.
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: Listen to your heartbeat.
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: Feel a gentle rise and fall of your chest as
• 1:23
  it moves in time with your heartbeat. And each time
• 1:27
  it does this, you feel more and more relaxed, more
• 1:32
  and more calm, more and more peaceful. Every time you
• 1:40
  breathe in, you're breathing in deep relaxation, and it feels
• 1:47
  so wonderful and so peaceful. Now tense up your whole
• 1:55
  body really tightly and hold it for just a few seconds.
• 2:00
  Hold it tightly, and now let it go. Feel your
• 2:06
  legs comeing limp and soft as your muscles relax. Feel
• 2:11
  your whole body softening as you gently relax. So one
• 2:17
  more time, tighten up all of your muscles and your
• 2:20
  body really tightly. Pail your hands into fists and hold
• 2:25
  it for just a few seconds. Hold it and now
• 2:30
  let it go. That's really good, well done. Now imagine
• 2:38
  that you have roots growing out from the soles of
• 2:40
  your feet, roots that just look like the roots of
• 2:45
  a tree, all long, wobbly and nubbly. And you can
• 2:51
  hear your roots growing through the ground. You can hear
• 2:56
  them as they push their way through the soil and
• 2:59
  it a little bit. Really feel the soil under your feet,
• 3:06
  can you feel it? This is called grounding, and this
• 3:12
  keeps your energy planted in the ground so that you
• 3:15
  too can grow big and strong, just like the trees.
• 3:22
  Now see yourself surrounded by a beautiful white light that
• 3:28
  sparkles and shines, making you feel so safe and so
• 3:33
  protected because you are this beautiful shining light, and you
• 3:41
  feel so relaxed now that your whole body is still
• 3:47
  so very still and so very peaceful. Now I'm going
• 3:55
  to tell you a short little story about Doris, the
• 3:59
  little pink piglet.
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: She was a very brave and happy little piglet.
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: And she absolutely loved everyone everyone she met, and she
• 4:10
  wanted everyone to be her friend. Doris was a cute
• 4:16
  and cuddly little pink piglet.
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: She had a.
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: Pink curly tail, a pink nose and pink ears that
• 4:23
  would wiggle whenever she was happy. She loved rolling around
• 4:30
  in the mud and squealed with joy whenever she found
• 4:33
  a nice warm spot to snuggle in, even if she
• 4:36
  did get a bit muddy. Doris lived on a farm.
• 4:41
  She was a very curious and adventurous little piglet. She
• 4:45
  was always looking for new experiences and new friends. Doris
• 4:50
  was always hungry, too, and would oink loudly whenever she
• 4:53
  wanted attention or food. She had a habit of eating
• 4:59
  every thinking sight, including her owner's flower beds, But despite this,
• 5:05
  her owner loved her dearly and always made sure she
• 5:09
  was well fed. Doris's favorite pastime was playing in the fields,
• 5:16
  chasing after butterflies and snuffling the truffles. She loved to
• 5:20
  run around, grunting with excitement and oinking happily whenever she
• 5:24
  found something interesting, and she nearly always did. But at
• 5:28
  the end of the day, Doris would always come back
• 5:32
  to her owner for a snuggle, closing her eyes contentedly
• 5:37
  as she drifted off to sleep. One day, while exploring
• 5:42
  the farm, she encountered a group of ducklings playing near
• 5:47
  the pond and They were laughing and having fun splashing
• 5:51
  about in that pond, and Doris really wanted to join them.
• 5:55
  She wanted to play with them and have fun too,
• 5:58
  But the duckling didn't want to play with her because
• 6:02
  she was different. They said that pigs were not supposed
• 6:06
  to play with ducks because they were different. This made
• 6:11
  Doris feel sad and alone, but she didn't give up.
• 6:17
  She decided to learn how to swim and fly like
• 6:21
  a duck so that she could play with them.
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: Oh my, oh my word, that's a tall order.
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: So Doris practiced every day and soon became good at
• 6:35
  swimming and jumping. She even learned how to fly a
• 6:39
  little bit with the help of some friendly sparrows. Imagine
• 6:43
  that of flying piglet.
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: Wow.
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: Finally, the day came when she was ready to show
• 6:52
  her new skills to the ducklings. She jumped into the
• 6:56
  pond and swam towards them, making big splashes and quackingly
• 7:00
  a duck. The ducklings were amazed and very impressed with
• 7:05
  how far Doris had come. They saw how determined and
• 7:09
  brave Doris was, so they welcomed her into their little group.
• 7:16
  Doris realized that she had many new friends and was
• 7:20
  looking forward to all the adventures they would have together.
• 7:24
  And she realized that being different was not a bad thing,
• 7:28
  but rather something to be proud of. And she learned
• 7:33
  that with determination and hard work, you can achieve anything
• 7:38
  you set your mind to be, anything you want to be.
• 7:44
  Doris also realized that it doesn't matter if we are
• 7:48
  all different from one or another. It only matters that
• 7:51
  we are kind to each other and that we help
• 7:55
  each other whenever our help is needed, and Doris found
• 8:00
  that she would always help every one, no matter how
• 8:03
  different they were from her. Doris lived happily on the fall,
• 8:10
  still enduring her favorite pastimes of rolling in the mud
• 8:14
  and snuffling for truffles, and most of all, playing with
• 8:17
  her new friends, the ducklings. And from that day on,
• 8:22
  Doris knew no matter where life took her, she would
• 8:28
  always have a warm place to call home and lots
• 8:32
  of wonderful friends. But now it's time for you to
• 8:37
  snuggle down and get some sleep. And you think to yourself,
• 8:42
  what a wonderful little pig like Doris's. And you say
• 8:45
  to yourself that you would like.
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: To be just like hair. So as you lie in
• 8:54
  your nice, warm bed.
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: You feel a gentle wave of sleepiness start at your
• 9:00
  feet and you can feel your toes going to sleep.
• 9:04
  It feels all warm and tingling and ever so soft.
• 9:10
  You feel this soothing, gentle wave of sleepiness coming up
• 9:14
  your calves and your shins, and you can feel it
• 9:18
  going up your size and you think to yourself, oh,
• 9:22
  my legs have gone to sleep, Yes they have. But
• 9:27
  you feel very tired now, so sleepy, but so happy.
• 9:34
  And this beautiful wave of sleepiness travels all the way
• 9:38
  up your body and down your arms and into your hands,
• 9:44
  making your body feel very very heavy, very very tired,
• 9:52
  and very very sleepy. And this gentle, warm way of
• 10:00
  sleepiness travels up your face and over the top of
• 10:05
  your head, down the back of your neck, and you
• 10:10
  feel so tired, so sleepy. Now you feel so very
• 10:18
  peaceful now and so very relaxed, so.
• 10:23
  Speaker 2: Relaxed, very very
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: Sleepy, So for now, night Night,
