Close your eyes and imagine a colourful coral reef under the sea.
This glorious,
Magical reef has all the types of fish you can imagine.
It has soft,
Swaying corals in every colour of the rainbow.
The ocean water is bubbly and blue and so clear too,
You can see straight through it.
Now imagine arriving here at this reef.
You go swimming through the sparkling water.
You discover that you can breathe just like normal here.
Take a deep breath in.
.
.
And a long,
Lovely breath out.
How wonderful it is to be able to breathe underwater.
You wonder if this is all an enchanting dream.
Feeling very excited,
You think about all of your favourite sea creatures.
This is your special ocean adventure to meet all of the creatures your heart desires.
Suddenly you see a friendly face,
With big,
Googly eyes,
Looking at you from behind some seagrass.
Feeling very curious.
You imagine which ocean animal this could be.
It waves to you with its long arm.
Then you see another long arm,
Or perhaps it is a leg.
How many arms or legs does this sea animal have?
You count eight in total,
Waving to you through the seagrass.
This interesting creature rises up and glides over to you with a big,
Kind smile.
Its eight legs are floating about everywhere,
And its body is about the same size as you.
Each colour is your new ocean friend.
This is the floppiest octopus you have ever seen.
It is totally relaxed,
And sways gently with the ocean current.
The octopus grins and tells you its nickname is Flopptopus,
For being the floppiest octopus in the sea.
Together you and Flopptopus go on an adventure through the shimmering ocean.
You feel so inspired to relax and be yourself.
All you need to do is explore.
Your octopus friend teaches you how to go all floppy,
And relax your body.
It's so relaxing to be just like a floppy octopus.
Your arms and legs and belly let go.
And you feel so completely calm and peaceful.
You feel so cosy and sleepy and dreamy.
Being so very relaxed.
You learn how to catch a current.
When you notice water sparkling and rushing by,
You allow the ocean current to move you along without even trying.
You feel so light and free.
As you relax and travel through the bubbly ocean with Flopptopus.
Together,
You drift along and laugh as you go all floppy.
And now a huge friendly whale appears.
You feel so safe and happy to be here by the side of this gigantic mammal.
You both hold onto its fin and glide through the deep blue sea.
As you explore with your gentle whale friend,
You feel pure joy in your heart.
And now,
Your journey continues.
And you meet some cheeky,
Lovely dolphins.
These dolphins are amazing.
So smooth and playful.
And they swim very fast.
There you play and have so much fun.
You discover a blue velvety starfish.
On the soft sand under the sea.
Which other fish and sea mammals would you like to meet in this magnificent tour of the ocean?
Feeling very dreamy now.
You continue your most relaxing underwater adventure with Flopptopus.
You have some time now to keep having fun.
And when my voice returns,
It will be time for your happiest deep sleep.
After such a magical journey,
Exploring the beautiful ocean,
It is time now to sleep.
You wave goodbye to your special friend,
Flopptopus.
You say thank you in your heart for such a wonderful adventure.
Your octopus friend waves goodbye to you with its eight floppy legs and its big,
Kind smile.
As you imagine yourself in your warm,
Cosy bed now.
You snuggle in for a good night's rest.
You fall asleep so fast.
As you feel so safe and so very loved.
Sleep takes over now.
As you drift off and start to dream.
Your lovely dreams are of the deep blue sea.
And of feeling so peaceful and free.
Feeling so thankful for a beautiful journey through the ocean.
You know in your heart that you can return there anytime you wish.
Sweet ocean dreams.
