During this guided visualization for sleep, you will experience the beginning of autumn by walking through a wild forest. Eventually, you will end up at a prehistoric stone circle.
No one knows why the prehistoric people built stone circles. Still, it's thought they were created as a place for healing, preparation for death, or celebrating ancestors who had passed away. But today, people gather in stone circles to celebrate the solstices. To worship, heal and connect with the earth.
Autumn holds a special place in Clara's heart, as it is her favourite time of the year. Enamoured by the shifting hues of the leaves, the cooler temperatures, the changing light, and the beauty of misty mornings, Clara finds peace in the seasonal transitions. The changing landscape prompts her to reflect on the passage of time, evoking thoughts about the swift journey of the year and the impending conclusion it brings.
In the opening moments of her soothing guided meditation, Clara invites listeners to join her in a brief contemplation of time. This reflective pause allows for a shared acknowledgement of the temporal nature of life, creating the atmosphere for the upcoming sensory journey. As the meditation unfolds, it finishes with the ASMR-like experience of the twilight forest, where the symphony of nature's twilight envelops those who embark on this tranquil journey with Clara.

Research shows that spending time by the ocean is excellent for your well-being. Gazing at the sea changes the frequency of our brain waves, which puts us in a calm, meditative state. In addition, the sound of the waves activates the parasympathetic nervous system, which promotes relaxation. Since being by the beach has soothing natural benefits, Clara will attempt to bring you the next best thing with this guided visualisation of the desert Island of Shells.

Waterfalls are naturally soothing and relaxing, so Clara will attempt to give you the next best thing with a guided visualization of one in a tropical rainforest. During the meditation, you will also experience the ritual known as Takigyo, or waterfall meditation, practised widely in Japan. In Takigyo, the Shinto purification ritual, you cleanse the mind, body and spirit by standing underneath a mountain waterfall.

In the latter part of his life, the artist Monet purchased a farm outside Paris, where he spent years creating a magical masterpiece—an exotic lotus land. In the garden of Giverny, he painted and meditated for almost 30 years. Many of the canvases he made during this time depicted waterlilies with large blossoms and pads suspended as if in space in the azure water mingled with the clouds.
The guided meditation, Lotus Land, begins with a simple relaxation exercise and then journeys back in time to the colourful garden of Giverny. Here, you will discover an otherworldly sense of peace. The visualisation ends with soothing ambient sounds from Monet's water lily garden.

Jacques Costeau, the famous marine biologist, sailed the seven seas for nearly half a century. During this time, he documented the extraordinary beauty of the oceans and marine life.

The visualisation will begin with a short history of Calypso, and then you will snorkel on a pristine tropical reef. Finally, the visualisation ends with a relaxing meditation and the ambient sound of the ship and the ocean.
