  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
• 0:42
  through your nose and slowly and gently let the breath
• 0:50
  out once again. Deep breath in and slowly breathe out.
• 1:08
  Now imaddin yourself standing on a beautiful beach, glorious white sand,
• 1:17
  and you can hear the calming sounds of the ocean.
• 1:22
  You can hear the waves as they gently come into
• 1:25
  the shore. As you listen to the waves, breathe in
• 1:32
  deeply and then 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,
• 1:55
  and more and more peaceful. And you look out over
• 2:03
  the ocean and see the amazing blue water. It's so
• 2:09
  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
• 2:31
  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
• 2:46
  look at it. The cave is warm and the air
• 2:51
  is moist, and it's actually very light inside it, so
• 2:56
  you can see where you're going. You walk through to
• 3:01
  the other end of the cave and you see it
• 3:04
  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
• 3:17
  feels ever so nice. You can hear the sounds of
• 3:22
  small animals scurrying through the undergrowth as they go about
• 3:27
  their daily business. As you walk further in, you see
• 3:33
  a large rock room in this enchanting and amazing forest,
• 3:39
  and he has a very large tree standing next to it,
• 3:43
  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
• 3:56
  they look very tasty too, and you are a bit
• 3:59
  hungry greener, so you decide to pull a few bananas
• 4:05
  off the tree for your lunch. When suddenly a small
• 4:10
  fish leaps out of the water and pulls a banana
• 4:13
  off the tree and it disappears back into the water. Wow,
• 4:17
  a banana eating fish. You didn't think fish ate bananas,
• 4:23
  Well apparently this one does. You pull off a couple
• 4:28
  for yourself and sit down to enjoy the tasty bananas.
• 4:34
  And as you sit there, the little fish again leaps
• 4:38
  out of the water, rabs a banana, and goes back
• 4:41
  under the wash again. Oh my, do you wonder what
• 4:46
  kind of fish it is? Clearly it likes bananas. How strange.
• 4:55
  As you sit eating your bananas, a little head up
• 5:00
  out of the water and stares at you. It's the
• 5:04
  little fish again. He smiles at you and says, alone
• 5:10
  and talking fish that eats bananas. What next, you think
• 5:15
  to yourself. The little fish tells you his name is Pete,
• 5:22
  and he tells you that he is a piranha. Oh no,
• 5:27
  you think to yourself, a piranha. You're very sure that
• 5:31
  they eat people.
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: The little fish see.
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: He's your look of alarm and tells you that he
• 5:36
  doesn't eat people. Nobody he knows eats people. Besides, he
• 5:42
  says they don't taste very nice. He only eats bananas.
• 5:49
  They are his favorite food. Well, the only food they
• 5:53
  would eat, really, He tells you that his family and
• 5:58
  friends only eat fish, and they think he's very strange
• 6:03
  because he eats bananas, so strange in fact, that they
• 6:08
  don't talk to him anymore, and this makes him very sad. Indeed,
• 6:16
  Pete asks you if you would like to come for
• 6:19
  a swim with him, and you say yes, of course,
• 6:24
  as long as you don't eat me, and you both
• 6:26
  give a little laugh. So with a big leap, you
• 6:32
  jump into the rock pool with an enormous splash. You
• 6:36
  swim around for a little while, and then Pete asks
• 6:40
  you if you would like to meet his friends who
• 6:42
  live deep within the ocean. Well, you say yes, but
• 6:46
  you don't think you can hold your breath that long.
• 6:50
  But Pete says not to worry. He has a magic
• 6:53
  sweet you can eat and it will let you breathe underwater.
• 7:00
  Pop the sweet in your mouth and dive deep under
• 7:03
  the water. Wow, you can still breathe. It's just like
• 7:08
  breathing air, only it's all watery up, and you can
• 7:12
  also talk too. Pete takes you to the deep ocean
• 7:19
  floor and to a little cave. Here is where his
• 7:23
  friends live, and just then a big squigly tentacle slowly
• 7:31
  slides out of the cave, followed by a rather big octopus,
• 7:38
  who is then followed by many, many smaller octopus. You
• 7:43
  try to count them, but there are just too many
• 7:45
  of them. Pete gives a little laugh and tells you
• 7:50
  that his friend, Olivia the big octopus has two hundred children. Wow,
• 7:58
  that's a lot of children. Olivia smiles, and she says
• 8:04
  she would like to show you around the cave where
• 8:06
  they all live. And then she suggests she takes you
• 8:10
  on a tour of the ocean floor. How fantastic is that?
• 8:18
  So just for a little while, go with Olivia and
• 8:21
  Pete and all the little octopus and see where they live,
• 8:27
  see how they live. Then you can have a wonderful
• 8:33
  tour of the ocean floor. Go and see what else
• 8:37
  lives at the bottom of the ocean. See how many
• 8:39
  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.
• 11:12
  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
• 11:41
  how good bananas are for them, very good for the bones,
• 11:46
  Pete says. So Olivia decides that the next time she
• 11:52
  surfaces above the water, she will give these tasty bananas
• 11:56
  a try. Pete is ecstatic because he knows that they
• 12:01
  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 good bye to Olivia and her children, and Pete
• 12:16
  guides you back to the rock pool. You climb out
• 12:21
  of the water and turn and say good bye to Pete,
• 12:25
  and you really hope you can see him again soon.
• 12:30
  Pete tells you that you can come and visit him
• 12:33
  and his friends any time you want, So you wave
• 12:39
  goodbye to Pete and begin your journey back home. As
• 12:45
  you walk, 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
• 13:05
  on by and watching any of those sorts just drift away.
• 13:13
  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
• 13:32
  and slowly and gently breathe out, and you are very
• 13:39
  sleepy now.
• 13:41
  Speaker 2: So tired, so sleepy.
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: You've had a long day. And then you realize that
• 13:50
  you are back in your very own bed now, and
• 13:55
  you wonder how that happened.
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: It's a kind of magic.
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: You snuggle down and get very comfy, and you feel
• 14:08
  yourself going deeper and deeper into beautiful, blissful sleep, feeling
• 14:18
  so peaceful, so calm, so relaxed, and you can still
• 14:26
  hear the waves. With each passing wave, your body becomes
• 14:33
  lighter and lighter, and you have become like the waves,
• 14:42
  one with the ocean. So just listen to the sounds
• 14:48
