Take a moment

and look around your room.

taking in its sights and sounds, 

smells and sensations

LONG PAUSE

Now, breathe in a

long, luxurious breath,

and as you exhale

turn inward.

LONG PAUSE

Breathe once more,

allowing all your senses

to tune into you.

LONG PAUSE

Now, see if you can imagine

standing on a wooden dock

and a beautiful blue-gray dolphin,

with a twinkle in her eye,

raises her head to greet you.

PAUSE

And, after a minute,

imagine the dolphin 

turning again,

and with a wave of her flipper,

inviting you

to join her for a ride

on her back.

PAUSE

Gingerly, you slide on

to the dolphin’s back,

feeling the cool smoothness

of her skin against yours.

PAUSE

The dolphin’s head turns,

so you can see her eyes,

and she winks,

before setting off to the horizon.

PAUSE

While riding on the dolphin,

you notice that she keeps

her head steady 

and just below the surface.

PAUSE

Every few moments,

the dolphin surfaces

and takes a breath

in a rhythm

like a dance.

PAUSE

As you cruise out to sea,

you run your fingers 

through the turquoise water,

creating little waves 

by your side.

PAUSE 

You pass buoys,

wobbling in the water,

and jungles of 

green, thick seaweed

flowing in the currents.

PAUSE

The sea is beautiful,

like crystals glittering 

and bobbing up and down

in the sun.

PAUSE

The air is balmy

and pleasant,

and gently scented 

with the fragrance of sea salt.

PAUSE

As you look above,

the sky is a jewel blue

that spans as far as 

your eyes can see,

sinking into the horizon.

PAUSE

The sky is cloudless,

and its infinite blue

brings a smile

to you.

PAUSE

And in the sky,

the sun commands its space,

warm and bright yellow

like melted butter,

gently alighting upon your cheeks.

PAUSE

Now, see if you can imagine

a large splash off to your left,

as a black and white manta ray

shoots from the water

to the sky 

and then disappears 

back into the water

PAUSE

Moments later,

the dolphin swims

through a school 

of silvery fish

whose skin reflects

like jewels in the water.

PAUSE

As the dolphin continues to swim,

the school of fish part,

with half on one side,

and half on the other side,

quickly flitting against

your legs.

PAUSE

Now, see if you can imagine

a magical dust falling on you

that allows you feel

comfortable and content

while the dolphin descends deeper

below the surface.

PAUSE

The magic dust

allows you breathe

with ease

below the surface,

and you feel completely comfortable.

PAUSE

As you and the dolphin

glide below the surface,

you notice a coral reef 

teeming with life.

PAUSE

And in the coral reef,

a bright orange and white clownfish

scoots by you,

wriggling through the water.

PAUSE

Then you catch a glimpse

of an indigo blue angelfish,

all while neon pink and blue coral 

wave in the water.

PAUSE

For a moment,

you think the dolphin 

will stay longer at the reef,

but she circles it a few times,

then heads out to sea.

PAUSE

Now, take a minute 

and give yourself permission

to listen to the sounds of sea,

opening all around you

as you venture deeper.

PAUSE

As you listen, 

the sound of bubbles popping

becomes clear,

bubbles from fish 

that pop in synch 

like a conversation.

PAUSE

Then, in the distance,

you hear moan, 

a deep bellow 

from a large creature.

PAUSE

And before your eyes,

two blue-gray whales appear,

talking to each other

in a magical language.

PAUSE
