Nature

Underwater Coral City

Glide weightlessly through a glowing reef. Bioluminescent fish, sun shafts, total quiet.

This session sets you down in the ocean to glide weightlessly through a glowing reef, watching shafts of light filter down from the surface.

You drift past bioluminescent fish and settle into the quiet of the deep water. The track spends its time on the slow rhythm of your own breathing.

A glowing reef where the water holds you up without any effort on your part. There are shafts of light from the surface and small, bright fish moving in the slow current.

You drift through the quiet and let the ocean do the work of staying afloat.

What’s in it

A glowing reef, bioluminescent fish, and sun shafts in the quiet.

Why do it

Drifting in the quiet of the water and looking at the light lets the mind settle on the rhythm of your own breathing.

Where it sits

Beaches, forests, mountains, gardens, rivers, meadows.

Why going here does anything

The water is heavy enough that you must move slowly, and that slow movement is the only thing being practised here.

Watching the light shift and the fish glide takes up all the attention the mind has left for looking at things. A body that is floating is a body that has let go of holding itself up.

Before you press play

Hypnosis is not for everyone. If you have epilepsy, a psychotic illness, or you are under psychiatric care, talk to your clinician before using this — here or anywhere.
