LONG PAUSE Breathe once more, allowing all your senses to tune into you. LONG PAUSE Now, see if you can imagine standing on a wooden dock and a beautiful blue-gray dolphin, with a twinkle in her eye, raises her head to greet you. PAUSE And, after a minute, imagine the dolphin  turning again, and with a wave of her flipper, inviting you to join her for a ride on her back. PAUSE Gingerly, you slide on to the dolphin’s back, feeling the cool smoothness of her skin against yours. PAUSE The dolphin’s head turns, so you can see her eyes, and she winks, before setting off to the horizon. PAUSE While riding on the dolphin, you notice that she keeps her head steady  and just below the surface. PAUSE Every few moments, the dolphin surfaces and takes a breath in a rhythm like a dance. PAUSE As you cruise out to sea, you run your fingers  through the turquoise water, creating little waves  by your side. PAUSE  You pass buoys, wobbling in the water, and jungles of  green, thick seaweed flowing in the currents. PAUSE The sea is beautiful, like crystals glittering  and bobbing up and down in the sun. PAUSE The air is balmy and pleasant, and gently scented  with the fragrance of sea salt. PAUSE As you look above, the sky is a jewel blue that spans as far as  your eyes can see, sinking into the horizon. PAUSE The sky is cloudless, and its infinite blue brings a smile to you. PAUSE And in the sky, the sun commands its space, warm and bright yellow like melted butter, gently alighting upon your cheeks. PAUSE Now, see if you can imagine a large splash off to your left, as a black and white manta ray shoots from the water to the sky  and then disappears  back into the water PAUSE Moments later, the dolphin swims through a school  of silvery fish whose skin reflects like jewels in the water. PAUSE As the dolphin continues to swim, the school of fish part, with half on one side, and half on the other side, quickly flitting against your legs. PAUSE Now, see if you can imagine a magical dust falling on you that allows you feel comfortable and content while the dolphin descends deeper below the surface. PAUSE The magic dust allows you breathe with ease below the surface, and you feel completely comfortable. PAUSE As you and the dolphin glide below the surface, you notice a coral reef  teeming with life. PAUSE And in the coral reef, a bright orange and white clownfish scoots by you, wriggling through the water. PAUSE Then you catch a glimpse of an indigo blue angelfish, all while neon pink and blue coral  wave in the water. PAUSE For a moment, you think the dolphin  will stay longer at the reef, but she circles it a few times, then heads out to sea. PAUSE Now, take a minute  and give yourself permission to listen to the sounds of sea, opening all around you as you venture deeper. PAUSE As you listen,  the sound of bubbles popping becomes clear, bubbles from fish  that pop in synch  like a conversation. PAUSE Then, in the distance, you hear moan,  a deep bellow  from a large creature. PAUSE And before your eyes, two blue-gray whales appear, talking to each other in a magical language.
