"Imagination Journeys" are a wonderful way for children to focus inward and REAL...ise the Love that they ARE! In this series of 3 journeys they meet their Special Friend (true Self), who they can adventure with, talk to and be inspired by. A new adventure where they meet a beautiful, golden dragon, who will be another companion, happens in the 2nd track. All 3 of them travel with dolphins and a mermaid to discover a precious crystal that is especially for them in track 3. Parents can listen too, so they can foster conversations that will organically arise. I would like to thank Lani, 9yrs old, for her beautiful Dragon drawing.

Hello again.

I'm so glad that you've come back again for another imagination journey.

It makes me really,

Really happy.

Are you ready?

That's good.

Are you in a place where it's quiet?

Good.

You can be laying down or sitting.

Remember,

You get to choose.

Ah,

That's good.

You've already got your hands on your tummy,

Ready to belly breathe.

So here we go.

Breathing in,

Letting the belly rise up like a balloon,

Filling up.

And breathing out,

The belly goes back down.

Breathing in.

And breathing out.

You're getting very good at this.

Breathing in.

And breathing out.

Relaxing.

And one more.

Breathing in.

Filling up your belly like a balloon.

That's it.

And letting it all out.

So you're nice and calm.

Well done.

And now,

Switching on your imagination again.

And I want you to imagine you're back in your garden.

Have you got your dragon with you?

I bet they've grown up a little bit because dragons grow very quickly.

Much quicker than humans grow.

And as they grow,

The love that you feel from them grows more and more.

And they sparkle even more golden than when they were babies.

They become brighter and brighter like the sun.

I hope you've been playing with your dragon.

They're always there with you,

Looking after you,

Keeping you safe,

Loving you.

How wonderful.

Now,

As you and your dragon go around the garden,

Has it changed again?

Have a look.

Is there anything different?

I bet there is.

What can you see?

Oh,

Lots of new things.

The garden is magical.

So every time you visit,

It can change.

And you'll see new things there.

Anything you can imagine can be there in your garden.

And you get to choose.

What a lot of fun.

And the golden white light over there behind the gate.

It's always there.

And every time you visit the garden,

It can grow bigger and brighter.

Can you see it?

Yeah.

Are you ready to go and visit?

Okay,

Off you go.

Go through the gate.

And you and your dragon can go inside that golden white light.

And there's your special friend there,

That part of you that's always there,

That lives inside.

You're so happy to see each other.

So take a moment to have a chat and catch up.

Share any news that you might have with your friend.

And listen to anything that your friend might have for you.

I'll be quiet for a minute while you catch up.

Well,

There's so many things to say,

Isn't there?

Are you ready for a new adventure with your friend?

Great.

Then hold their hand.

You have your dragon with you.

Does he still fit inside your clothes on your chest?

Or are you carrying him now?

Or does he just walk with you?

That's wonderful.

And now I want you to look around inside the golden white light.

Just turn around slowly.

See what you can see.

And way over in the distance,

You can see a shiny,

Bright,

Crystal-clear light.

Can you see it?

Off you go.

And have a look.

It's shiny like a mirror,

But you can see right through it,

Like crystal-clear water.

And it's the most beautiful blue that you have ever,

Ever seen.

And it looks so beautiful that you just want to jump inside.

And you know you'll be safe.

So holding hands with your friend and your dragon.

We'll count to three,

And then you can jump in.

One,

Two,

Three.

In you go.

Through the mirror.

Through the crystal-clear blue.

And it's like you're on a slippery dip,

And you're just sliding.

Down,

Down,

Down.

It's so much fun.

And at the bottom,

You splash into a beautiful pool of water.

It's a rock pool at the edge of the ocean.

And the water's warm and beautiful.

And sitting there on a rock right beside you is a beautiful mermaid.

And she says hello to you.

She's really friendly.

And in the water beside the mermaid is a dolphin.

The dolphin is her special friend.

And then other dolphins come to the surface.

And they make that funny laughing noise that dolphins make.

And everybody laughs because it sounds like laughing.

And you're all giggling together.

The mermaid and the dolphin want you to come with them.

So you walk over to them and hop on the dolphin's back.

And all of you go into the water and swim along.

The mermaid's beside you.

You are in the water.

You and your friend are on the back of a dolphin.

And your dragon can swim.

You didn't know the dragon could swim.

But it's swimming along with you.

Are you ready to go under the water?

You don't have to hold your breath because you can breathe like the dolphin and the mermaid and the dragon.

This is your imagination journey.

You can breathe under the water.

And off you go.

You dive down into the ocean.

And wow,

You get to see all the fish.

So many beautiful,

Colourful fish.

And turtles.

And lots of lovely seaweed and plants.

And then you go over a beautiful coral reef,

All different colours.

And they take you to a special place deep in the ocean.

It looks like an island.

Except it's under the water.

And on this island,

You can see a treasure box.

You know it's a treasure box.

You don't know how you got there.

You know that.

You just know.

And the mermaid invites you to go over to the box and to open it up.

So off you go.

Open up the box.

And what can you see?

Wow.

So many beautiful crystals.

All different colours.

You've never seen crystals like them.

And the mermaid says that you can choose one as a special gift just for you.

So have a look.

Which one will you choose?

You might pick a few up and feel them.

And one of them will feel just right.

Like it was meant especially for you.

It might feel like you've owned that crystal before.

That it belongs to you.

Have you found the one that's just for you?

Ah,

That's good.

Hold it in your hand.

How does it make you feel?

It feels so good,

Doesn't it?

Thank the mermaid for her special gift.

And she's saying to you to hop back on the dolphins and the dolphins will take you back to the rock pool.

So off you go.

They ride back up to the surface of the water and swim across the top of the ocean.

Right back to the rock pool.

You and your friend and your dragon hop off.

And you say goodbye to the dolphins.

And you sit back in the rock pool.

You have your crystal with you.

And your dragon and your special friend.

And all of a sudden it's like you're going back up the slippery dip that you came down before.

And you pop out into the golden light where your special friend lives.

You walk back out the garden gate and close the gate behind you.

And you know you have your dragon with you all the way wherever you go.

And now you have your crystal with you as well.

Remember the feeling that the crystal gives you inside.

The same feelings as the golden white light and your beautiful dragon of beautiful love.

Feeling safe.

Feeling happy.

And you take a deep belly breath.

And you can feel your tummy rising up again and falling back down.

And you know that just by remembering the feeling and using your belly breath that you can come back to this adventure space whenever you want.

And by remembering the feeling of the dragon and the crystal you can have them with you anywhere and anytime.

I look forward to being with you again soon for our next imagination journey.

Much love.
