TRANSCRIPT · AUTO-GENERATED

Yacht-to-Dot. With 85 minutes, we'll demonstrate. For everyone who's simply dotting about Alexa. Hey guys, Robin here.

Today, we're looking at Nature Valley Sounds, which is a really good skill. And I think from the description, we'll actually take us on a journey. So it's kind of a step above your average ambient sound skill, however immersive it is. Usually with them, you're just staying in one place and hearing what's going on around you.

But to actually be moving through, in this case, nature, I think it's a winner. Let's give it a go. Oh, let's open Nature Valley Sounds. Okay, here's Nature Valley Trails.

Welcome back to Nature Valley Trails. What do you want a little more of? You can spend some time outside to motivate, recharge, or focus. Which one sounds good right now?

Recharge. You're about to take a walk to unwind under the stars. In the next ten minutes or so, wherever you are, whatever you have going on today, this is a chance to recharge and relax in nature. Start walking.

Oh, okay. Maybe you should, uh... The air is cool. And the sky is a mix of orange, pink, and purple as you walk along the river.

While you're walking along, maybe you should. Or on a treadmill. The sun has just started to set, softly shining, as it moves lower and lower in the sky. So this is ten minutes.

I wonder what we can say. Okay. I'm reluctant to just ask for help, because... You listen to the water flow over the rocks at the riverbed.

You feel more relaxed already. You often just get there. This is an emergency, so I'll say. And it's Nature Valley Trails, obviously, isn't it, guys?

Oh, the f***, sir. Ask Nature Valley Trails for help. While listening to any of these experiences, you can ask for pause or a play to pick up where you left off when you're ready. You can also ask to start the experience over from the beginning.

The last time you were here, you were looking to recharge. Want to try motivate or maybe focus? Motivate. You're hiking the mountain loop.

Oh, okay. In the next ten minutes or so, wherever you are, whatever you're trying to take on today, this is a chance to find some energy and motivation in nature. Start walking. Motivation.

So this is the motivate one. Focus on your feet hitting the path and forget where you are right now. Just shake it off and get ready to hit the trail and get a good hike in. In my time.

How cold is this, guys? Okay, I'm going to play out another little bit of a second. You and the only one on the trail. Need to listen to.

You look around, and all you see are the green leaves and thick moss covering the forest on either side of the path. You take a deep breath and enjoy the earthy smell of the dirt. Tomorrow. You pass the trailhead.

You've done this loop before, so you aren't worried about getting lost. You know the way. It's quiet enough to let all the sounds of the forest come into focus. You take a minute to just listen and take it in.

You notice your feet. Every time they hit the trail, it's in this effortless rhythm. Every step just goes right and easy. The early morning air is nice and cool.
