"I am the sea" is a poetic meditation, using the sea as a metaphor for the soul. Discover something about your nature as you spend five minutes diving below the busy surface waves, exploring the deeper stillness, in order to become resilient to the winds of change. Spoken by Carmen Warrington, with the sound of the ocean waves giving way to a chorus of mermaids. This text is taken from Carmen's book "Today I Am" and forms part of a series of meditations.

Transcript

I am the sea.

When the weather is calm,

My waves roll gently.

When stormy winds blow,

I am wild and out of control.

On the surface,

I am influenced by my surroundings.

But I am also deep,

And way down beneath my surface is another world.

Down in my depths,

I have a mysterious and secret world of stillness,

Silence,

Beauty,

Hidden colour,

And great power.

Instead of dwelling on the surface,

Where I interact with the world outside,

I spend time visiting the deepest part of me,

So that I can become resilient to the winds of change.

I am the sea,

And I retreat into the still,

Silent,

Deep waters of my soul.

I am the sea.

I am the sea.

I am the sea.

I am the sea.
