Make yourself comfortable. Gently close your eyes. Breathe in deeply and exhale slowly. Let go of all worries and tensions.

Become aware of your breath. With each inhale, feel fresh air flowing into your lungs. With each exhale, relax and let go.

With each exhale, let go of everything that no longer serves you.

Imagine yourself standing on the edge of the ocean, on a peaceful beach. The waves are gently crashing against the shore and the sun is reflecting on the water.

The waves gently retreat and then return in an endless rhythm.

Like the beating of a giant heart, the waves sing a timeless, calm and deep melody.

Their colors vary from deep blue to bright turquoise, like an endless palette of colors in motion.

Feel the silence in this place. The unfathomable mystery of silence.

Feel the connection with nature, with the universe.

Reflect on the silent story of this endless dance.

Visualize the ocean as a symbol of everything that is not under your control, everything that does not depend on you. The waves represent the events of life, sometimes calm, sometimes stormy.

Remember, you can't control the waves, but you can control your reaction to them. Like a solid rock on the edge of the sea, you can choose to remain stable.

With each breath, imagine that you are becoming that rock. Nothing can move you, because you have the wisdom to know what depends on you and what does not.

Feel the strength within you, the ability to face the waves of life with calm resilience. You are the guardian of your thoughts and feelings.

You are the guardian of your mind.

You are able to choose your reactions in a way that allows serenity.

Now imagine that you are holding a seashell in your hand. It is an event in your life, a circumstance.

Observe it carefully and then let it gently return to the ocean.

Feel gratitude for your ability to discern and choose. This is your power, your calm in the midst of the storm.

You are a sovereign being in your inner world.

Remember that everything in life is in constant flux.

As the waves change, so do the circumstances.

Your inner stability becomes your anchor.

Return gently to your physical surroundings. Feel the ground beneath you, the sensations in your body. Become aware of the present moment.

Continue to meditate on this stoic thought. Remember that you are like the rock on the sea, deciding what is yours and what is not. Allow yourself to remain in this state of calm and control.

In this calmness, imagine how you can apply this stoic wisdom to your daily life. Imagine facing challenges with calmness and confidence.

Remain this calm for the next few minutes, remembering the stoic wisdom, "Learn to discern what depends on you and what doesn't."

This soundtrack will keep on running for a short while. I leave you to it. Be wise. Be happy. Be serene. I’ll see you soon my friend.
