Welcome, It is so lovely to share this time with you and I am especially excited to take you through this journey to connect with your dream dragon. And it is something that you can do anytime when you are ready to sleep or relax deeply. Some of you may have listened to my stories about Yuri and Jasper and the dragon adventures. And in this meditation we are going to discover who your own special dream dragon is. Dream dragons are wonderful because you can summon them when you are ready to sleep. You can tell them all about your day and ask them to help you solve anything that you might be worried about while you sleep. Sometimes our dream dragons give us lovely messages as well. And it is important to remember that if there is ever anything that is bothering you, Always find somebody that you can trust to share your problems with and share your worries with. But dream dragons are also very helpful when we are really trying to get to sleep and finding it difficult. So before you can meet your dream dragon, You need to become really still, Really quiet and super relaxed. Dream dragons only come when our minds are quiet and our bodies are still and we are ready to listen to the tiniest of sounds. So let's begin by settling into our bodies, Finding a way to either sit or lie really comfortably and take three nice deep breaths. Allowing them to become a little bit longer and a little bit slower. And with each slow breath, Noticing that you are relaxing deeper and deeper. You might begin to notice the parts of your body that do feel really comfortable. Maybe it's your toes, Maybe it's your nose, Or maybe it's that wiggly part of you that's been busy all day and now just wants to settle down into a comfortable feeling. And I wonder if you can imagine that comfortable feeling flowing across your eyelids as they begin to feel heavier and heavier. Feeling comfortable as they close. And I wonder if you can imagine your body becoming even more relaxed as though a heavy blanket is resting across your arms and legs and chest. Warm and comforting. Helping your body to relax even deeper down. And just by imagining it, It begins to happen automatically. As you pretend that there's a heavy blanket relaxing you more, I wonder if you can begin to notice the rise and fall of your chest with each slow breath. And as you notice which parts feel really comfortable and really relaxed, I wonder if you can imagine being the perfect temperature all the way from the tips of your toes to the tip of your nose. You may even imagine a gentle breeze flowing all over you. Perhaps it's gently warming you. Or perhaps it's cooling you to the perfect temperature. Just like a gentle breeze that's fluttering over your face and eyelids. Like the perfect breeze you might feel if you were in a beautiful forest or perhaps at the beach. And I know you have a wonderful imagination and it might even be possible to imagine breathing in a beautiful colour that can make you feel even more relaxed. Breathing it in and imagining it flowing to every part of your body. So you can feel even more comfortable now. And now that you're feeling more relaxed, It's the perfect time to invite your own special dream dragon to visit you now in your imagination. With your eyes closed, I wonder if you can welcome your dragon to be with you now. And I wonder what you might sense about them. Perhaps they're snuggling up close to you. And dream dragons do not have a fiery breath. They're warm and comforting. You might imagine what your dragon scales feel like as you run your fingers over them. Perhaps you can feel them up against your face. Are they cool or warm? Perhaps you notice your dream dragon feels soft and comforting. Whatever it is, It's perfect for you. And I wonder if you can notice the colour of your dream dragon. If it's the same colour all over, Or perhaps it looks like a shimmering rainbow of different colours. Maybe you can sense it's there, But not quite see it. And whatever you notice, That's perfect for you. Because some dream dragons are a little shy at first and like to hide in the shadows. And in a moment I'm going to be quiet as you thank your dream dragon for coming. You can tell it your name and ask it to tell you it's listening quietly for its answer. Some of you may hear your dragon's name like a whisper on the breeze. Some of you might feel it in the beating of your heart. Or some of you might hear your dragon speak its name, Or perhaps even see its name written on a cloud in the sky. Some dragons are a little shy, So if you don't learn your dragon's name right away, Let it know that that's okay and that as you become friends over time, You'll learn to trust each other. So I'll be quiet now for a moment as you thank your dream dragon for coming. Introduce yourself and ask it for its name. And if you've been given a name, Imagine it being placed in your heart now, As if in a secret treasure box that can be opened whenever you need it. Whenever you want to feel this comfortable and relaxed, Feel this safe, Excited or happy. All you need to do is say your dragon's name to yourself and your dream dragon will be with you. And for those of you whose dragons are still a little shy, Perhaps you can give them a nickname, A special name to put in your treasure box so you can call them whenever you want to. So taking another big deep breath now, Letting your body become really still. No wonder if you and your dream dragon can travel to a very special place, The dragon forest. So when you're ready, Climb aboard your dragon's back, Holding on tight and say the words, Let's fly. And a wonderful thing happens when you're flying with your dragon. This is though part of your body feels like it's floating higher and higher, Freer and freer, And so much more relaxed. There's nothing you need to do because your dragon knows how to fly to the beautiful forest, Where it knows you'll always feel safe and calm, And all you have to do is relax even more. And imagine you're as light as a feather so that you and the dream dragon can fly so easily. And as you fly, You feel the gentle beating of wings, Cool breeze on your face, And far below wonderful mountains and streams. And as you both begin to float down now so gently, Closer and closer to the ground, You can see a clearing in the forest where your dragon lands so softly. You can hear birds in the trees, The smell of fruits and flowers, Noticing that feeling of warm sunshine on your face, At the edge of the clearing is a pond, A pool of deep blue water. Your dream dragon tells you to throw any thoughts that have been bothering you into the pond, Any difficult feelings or anything you've been worrying about. Your dragon tells you to imagine throwing them into the pond right now, And as you do, You see the water splash as all those worries and fears drop into the water and disappear. And now your dragon asks if there's anything that you'd like help with, Any special dreams that you want answered, Any wishes or hopes. And I'm going to be quiet for a few deep breaths while you tell your dragon about anything that you might want help with or any special wishes that you'd love to achieve. And now your dragon breathes a beautiful, Steamy breath all over you, It's the shimmering mist of golden sunshine. And your dragon tells you that its special magic will be with you always, Whenever you need it, Whenever you ask. Dragon magic can help you to relax deeply and easily, Finding the solutions to any problems, And helping you to achieve all your goals. And whenever you call your dragon's name and ask for help, Your body relaxes just like it is now, Feeling safe and calm, Relaxed and light. And you might imagine practicing this when you're home in bed, Settling down to sleep, Allowing your body to become still and quiet, And calling your dragon in with its special name. You might imagine what it would feel like to fly each night to the dragon forest, Throwing any worries or disappointments, Any feelings of anger or sadness, Throwing them all into the pond every night, Noticing how much happier you are when you ask for your dragon's help. And right now, Your dream dragon has a special message for you. It notices all the wonderful things you do and say, All the things that make you excited and happy, How your eyes shine when you're happy and creative. It knows all your wishes and dreams and is excited to help you with them. And it wants you to know how proud it is to be your friend. And I wonder if you can feel or hear that special message from your dream dragon, As I'm quiet now for just a moment. And when you hear it, Place it in that special treasure box that's in your heart. Feeling safe and relaxed. It's easy to drift into the perfect sleep, Ready to go on adventures with your dream dragon, And it can travel with you wherever you choose to go each and every night. All you need to do is lie down, Relax, Settle down quietly with your breath, Allowing your body to be still. And as you listen for that special message, Placing it in your heart, It's easy to relax and drift and dream to all those wonderful places in your mind.

That was amazing! My dream dragons name is Qì (its Chinese so its pronounced chee.) She is a gradient with red at her head and lime at her 2 tails. Her four legs are gradient with purple at the top and blue at the bottom.she has pearl horns a mane and 4 galaxy dragonfly wings. Her scales are smooth like obsidian and they are cool to the touch. Once, she surprised me and turned camo colored. THAT was surprising.
P.S what does your dream dragon look like Chrissy? I really want to know.

I love this one i have problably
Listened to it 5 times✌️😊😊😊😊😊

It was great. Would highly recommend! My dragon’s name was Emery and he had all emerald scales with emerald green eyes. Around his eyes were a greenish teal color. His scales were diamond 💠hard but smooth like an emerald ❇️! The scales were cool but in a nice way! He had two wings that were shaped like a leaf 🍃. He was very kind, smart and funny. He is the best dream dragon ever! Thanks a lot. Namaste 🙏 I fell asleep very fast! 🤗😴😴😴😴😴Can you please make more dragon meditations please? Thanks again.
P.S. I have autism, anxiety, asthma and insomnia this helps a lot to fall asleep.

wow thats amazing! my dragon is called amie/amber and my dragon pefers to have no gender! well thats what they said, and there colour is light orange with wings like fire

(edit) Hello! just just found out that my dragon had decided that today it wanted to turn sage green! it suprised me when amie poped up with a different colour. anyway i forgot to say how good this track is, i think i will make another dragon so after school i can say hi to them.oh aswell amie had leaf wings instead of fire wings aswell today

Wow. This was just… BOOOOOM! In all respects, I’ve never seen anything like this so, well done! P. S. My dragon is green, with a scarlet red across and down her plated back with striped patterns across her wings and a round club on the end of her tail. (Inspired by my favorite video game, Monster Hunter: World by Capcom)Also, she’s a wyvern instead of a dragon, so I hope that’s ok. At first I didn’t like her shade of green so I tried to change it, but she always kept flicking back to her original colour no matter how hard I tried. So I guess I’ll just keep her that way then. In my opinion she still looks great. Also, her name is Rathian.
DESTINY, BABY!

😴😴😴😍😍😍❤️❤️❤️
