Good evening,
Ocean soul.
It's me,
Summer,
Your meditation storyteller friend.
From my home to yours,
I send lots of love.
And it seems as though it's just about time to fall asleep.
Also with you and always with you are your guardian angels,
Your spirit guides,
And your animal spirit guides.
You will never fall asleep alone or be alone.
Tonight.
We are going to talk about the magic of wonder.
And we are also going to talk about the spirit animals,
The flamingo.
The vaquita.
In the harbor porpoise.
You may not know what a vaquita and a harbor porpoise are,
But they're in the same family as dolphin and whales.
Let's begin.
Now imagine it's nighttime.
The moon is shining brightly above you,
Filling everything with silver light.
And I really want you to look at that moon.
And as you're staring at that moon,
It's going to clear your energy.
Breathe in through your nose and out through your mouth.
You are standing in a beautiful jungle near the ocean.
The air is warm and gentle.
The leaves softly sway in the breeze.
And just then.
.
.
A flamingo walks right up beside you.
This is no ordinary flamingo.
This flamingo glows softly in the moonlight.
With feathers that shimmer shades of pink.
Lavender,
And gold.
The flamingo gently rubs its head against your shoulder.
Aww.
Without using words,
The flamingo sends a message straight into your heart.
You smile.
Together,
You walk through the jungle toward the ocean.
Soon!
You arrive at the shore.
The beach is unlike any beach you've ever seen.
Instead of sand,
The shoreline is covered in sparkling moonstones.
Silver.
Blue.
Purple.
White.
You kneel down and pick one up.
As you hold it.
You wonder where it came from.
Did it travel here from another ocean?
Hmm.
Another world.
Hmm.
Another time.
The Moonstone doesn't answer.
It simply sparkles.
And somehow,
That feels perfect.
Not every mystery needs an answer.
Some mysteries are gifts.
Wonder is one of your superpowers.
The flamingo smiles and leads you toward the water.
The ocean is glittery purple tonight.
As your feet enter the water,
You notice two familiar friends waiting for you.
A gentle vaquita.
And a friendly harbor porpoise.
They leap through the waves and splash happily beneath the moonlight.
The vaquita and harbor porpoise are wonderful listeners.
They listen to the ocean.
They listen to the stars.
And most importantly,
They listen to their hearts.
The flamingo admires this about them.
And the vaquita and harbor porpoise admire the flamingo too.
They love how the flamingo shines brightly and expresses exactly who it is.
Each friend is different.
Yet,
Each friend is perfect exactly as they are.
The flamingo turns toward you.
I have an idea.
A magical pouch of glitter suddenly appears in your hands.
Maybe the glitter is silver.
Maybe it is rainbow.
Maybe it sparkles blue,
Green,
Pink,
Or gold.
Choose what color it is.
And take a moment to imagine it.
Now sprinkle some on the flamingo,
The vaquita,
And the harbor porpoise,
And yourself.
The moment the glitter touches everyone,
Something amazing happens.
You can fly.
You can swim underwater.
You can soar through the stars.
Because tonight.
.
.
There are no limits.
The flamingo laughs.
Let's go!
Together you rise into the sky.
You fly above the ocean.
Then something magical appears.
Together you rise into the sky.
You fly above the ocean.
Then,
Something magical appears.
Rainbows Huge rainbows.
Tiny rainbows.
Rainbow bridges.
Rainbow arches.
One by one,
You leap over them.
Each rainbow feels different.
One feels joyful.
One feels peaceful.
One feels playful.
And one feels mysterious.
As you fly,
You begin wondering what might be waiting beyond the next rainbow.
The wondering itself feels exciting.
Not knowing can be beautiful.
Questions can be magical.
Curiosity can lead us on wonderful adventures.
Soon,
You are flying higher.
And higher.
And higher.
The clouds are below you.
The ocean looks smaller.
The stars seem brighter than ever.
The flamingo smiles.
Let's visit the stars.
Soon,
You are floating gently in space.
The magical glitter is still working.
You can breathe easily.
You feel safe.
You feel light.
You feel free.
All around you are thousands and thousands and thousands of stars.
Some are blue.
Some are silver.
Some sparkle pink and purple and the harbor porpoise becomes very quiet.
Te Pekita Tu.
Together,
They simply look the same.
And listen.
You decide to listen to.
Not with your ears,
But with your heart.
The universe feels peaceful,
Ancient,
Mysterious,
Beautiful.
Every star seems to hold a question.
How big is the universe?
What adventures are waiting for me?
What amazing things!
Will I learn one day.
The stars do not answer.
Instead they twinkle.
Almost as if they are saying,
Keep wondering.
The vaquita smiles.
Some questions are not meant to be answered right away.
The harbor porpoise nods.
Some questions,
Help us discover.
Who we are.
The flamingo spreads its wings.
And some questions inspire us to dream bigger.
Then suddenly,
You hear a beautiful sound.
A whale sound.
Far away among the stars,
Several glowing humpback whales swim peacefully through space.
As if space itself were an ocean.
They do not stay long.
One whale glides past and shares a message with your heart.
It's okay to not know all the answers.
Another seems to whisper.
Some mysteries are gifts.
The whales continue their journey through the stars.
Leaving trails of stardust behind them.
You wave goodbye.
Then Flamingo points toward the glowing earth below.
Together,
You dive back down toward the ocean.
Down.
Down.
Down.
Splash!
You enter the glowing sea.
Soon you discover a pod of dolphins preparing for bed.
You wave hello.
The dolphins wave back.
We're heading to sleep soon too,
They say.
You smile and wish them sweet dreams.
As you continue swimming,
Your friends gather around you.
There's something important we want you to remember,
Says the Flamingo.
The flamingo is a spirit animal of self-expression,
Creativity,
Friendship,
And shining your unique light.
Whenever you feel nervous about being seen,
Think of the flamingo.
The flamingo reminds you it is safe to shine.
The harbor porpoise swims closer.
Our harbor porpoise is the spirit animal of listening,
Sensitivity,
Intuition,
And quiet wisdom.
Whenever you feel shy.
Quiet.
Or different because you enjoy peaceful spaces.
Of the porpoise.
The porpoise reminds you.
Quiet is beautiful too.
The vaquita smiles.
The vaquita is a spirit animal of wonder,
Mystery,
Imagination,
And curiosity.
Whenever you have a question that nobody can answer,
Think of the vaquita.
Of Akita remind you to stay curious.
The three friends smile.
The flamingo represents shining.
The porpoise represents listening.
The vaquita represents wonder.
Together,
They teach you.
There are beautiful ways and many beautiful ways to be yourself.
Some people shine brightly.
Some kids listen deeply.
Some kids ask big questions.
Every way is wonderful.
Every way belongs.
Now,
Your friends guide you back to the Moonstone Beach.
As you step onto the shore,
You notice something glowing inside your chest.
A tiny silver star.
The flamingo smiles.
The harbor porpoise nods.
The vaquita grins.
That star was always there,
They tell you.
It is your wonder.
Whenever you ask a question,
Whenever you imagine,
Whenever you dream,
That little star inside you shines brighter and brighter.
I'll take a slow breath in and a slow breath out.
Repeat these statements quietly in your heart.
I am curious about life.
Wonder is one of my gifts.
I do not need all the answers right now.
My imagination is powerful.
It is safe to ask big questions.
It is safe to be different.
It is safe to shine.
It is safe to be quiet.
My voice matters.
My listening matters.
My uniqueness matters.
I trust the wisdom inside my heart.
I am inspired by the mysteries of life.
I am loved exactly as I am.
I belong exactly as I am.
The magic of life is always unfolding around me.
Good night,
Beautiful soul.
May the flamingo help you shine.
May the porpoise help you listen.
May the vaquita help you wonder.
And may the stars remind you that the universe loves curious hearts.
Good night,
Little ocean soul.
Until next time.
