Draw in a deep breath,

and let your whole body relax.

Feel the relaxation

spreading throughout.

PAUSE

Breathe in some more,

letting any distracting thoughts

gently drifting away,

leaving you relaxed and peaceful.

PAUSE

Now, imagine seeing a

beautiful sea turtle

with a shell of

brown,

olive green,

and black.

PAUSE

And, as you observe

the turtle,

you notice its

gentle, dark eyes

that scan the water.

PAUSE

You notice the

effortless motion

of the turtle’s flippers

that glide it through the water.

PAUSE

You notice its rough, wizened face

that suggests decades

of life and wisdom.

PAUSE

As you move along

with the turtle,

you see that it rises to the surface

for a few moments.

It pokes its head out

and then floats,

letting the warm sun

gently bathe its body.

PAUSE

After a while,

the turtle dives

back into the water.

But the descent is

slow and graceful.

There is no rush.

Just a peaceful progression

to what is next.

PAUSE

As the turtle reaches the bottom,

it nibbles on some sea grass,

savoring every bite.

Again, there is no rush.

PAUSE

Now, bring yourself back

to the present moment.

And, as you do,

ask yourself

what have you learned

from the sea turtle.

Can you find areas in your life

where you can slow down?

PAUSE

Breathe.

and create an intention

to slow down the pace of your life,

to give yourself less stress,

and to let every moment matter.

“I will slow down and savor the moment.”

Just like the sea turtle.

Practice,

and it will be yours.

now and always.

NAMASTE, BEAUTIFUL
