Hello and thanks for joining me.
On this guided visualization of theenchanting region of Scun in Denmark,
Gargan is nestled at the northernmosttip of the Jutland Peninsula where
(01:10):
the North Sea meets the Baltic Sea.
Imagine this area where the two seas meet.
The North Sea has a Turo blue color dueto its colder, denser, and saltier waters.
(01:35):
While the Baltic Sea has adeep, dark blue color due to its
warmer and less starline waters.
There's a visual and physicalbarrier between the two Cs here
because they don't mix due to thedifference in their salinity levels.
(02:02):
This phenomenon creates a dynamic andever shifting boundary between the two Cs.
Before we begin the visualization,find a place you feel most comfortable.
(02:28):
Perhaps your bed,
a favorite chair, or even onthe floor with a cozy pillow.
Once you've found yourcomfortable place, close your eyes
(02:53):
and take a slow, deep breath in.
Halt it for a couple of seconds.
And then exhale,
letting go of any tensionor stress in your body,
(03:16):
allow yourself to relax completely,feeling the weight of your body
sinking into your cozy spot.
Take a few moments tobreathe deeply like this.
And imagine yourself releasingany negative thoughts or worries
(03:39):
that may be weighing you down.
Allow them to fade away with each exhale.
(04:00):
Focus your attention solelyon the present moment
and the peacefulness you'recultivating for yourself.
(04:55):
Due to its high Northern latitudescar gun experiences around 17
hours of daylight during the summer
in the evening, this creates a soft,
(05:16):
warm glow.
Ideal for capturing breathtakingphotos and paintings.
Because of this, the area has becomea popular destination for artists
and photographers from all overthe world who come to witness the
(05:39):
magic of the scar gun light, andcapture its beauty in their work.
Let's take a moment toimagine a picturesque,
(06:00):
traditional black fishing cabin
situated on a remote peninsula.
Here,
the cabin.
Built in a traditional style has arustic wooden facade and a cozy interior.
(06:26):
The cabin's, isolation and proximityto the beach make it an ideal getaway
for those seeking a peaceful retreat.
(06:50):
As you lie in your bedinside the beach cabin,
you stare at the small bedroomwindow covered by delicate
antique place curtains.
Although it's late evening, thesun still peaks through the window
(07:17):
creating a play of light andshadow on the walls of the room.
You toss and turn.
Trying to fall asleep,
but the ethereal glow outsidemakes it difficult to relax.
(08:05):
The sound of the sea nearby isirresistible and you give up on sleep.
Deciding to step outside.
You leave the bed and open the front door
(08:27):
where a refreshing sea breeze greets you.
The landscape.
Is bathed in the soft andgentle glow of the late evening.
(08:50):
You can hear the sound of the sea andthe calls of seabirds in the distance.
You stand here for a while.
Enjoying the natural beauty.
(09:24):
Stepping out beyond the small back garden.
You start walking on anarrow winding trail.
That makes its way towards the beach.
(09:46):
You first encounter a weathered woodensmokehouse shack that's seen better days
despite the harsh conditions.
The shack still stands strong, a testamentto the strength of its construction.
(10:18):
Looking around you notice stacks oflobster ports and fishing nets piled
up haphazardly beside the shack.
(10:40):
A little further down thetrail, you see an old wooden
rowing boat turned upside down
like the fishing hut.
It's weathered veneer, givesyou an impression of the years
it's spent in the harsh winds.
Tides of the nearby sea.
(11:10):
Continuing along the path, you'resurrounded by an overgrowth of blackberry,
purple, Heather and rose hip bushes.
These wild plants have grownso tall that it's impossible
(11:31):
to see over the top of them.
The trail beckons you onwardspromising the beauty of the
beach that lies just beyond.
(12:40):
Walking on the beach.
You can feel the coolsand under your feet.
You start to make your way towardsa small peninsula formed by a sandy
spit that stretches into the water.
(13:07):
The waves crashing onto the shorecreate a peaceful atmosphere.
As you get closer to the end of the spit,
(13:27):
you notice something remarkable.
There's a barrier.
Where the Baltic and North Sea convergeseparating the two bodies of water
on one side of the barrier,the water is twas blue while
(13:53):
on the other, it's Indico blue.
You stand here in awe.
To witness such a unique phenomenon,
(14:13):
the tide has washed up several purplestarfish, scattered across the sandy beach
and patches of iridescent pinkseaweed glisten in the sunlight.
(14:40):
As the waves recede, you can seethe intricate patterns and textures
of the seaweed, which seem toglow in different shades of pink.
(15:20):
After spending sometime admiring the view.
You suddenly feel the urgeto take a dip in the water,
a cool breeze.
Brushes against your skin, heighteningyour senses as you take a deep
(15:41):
breath and remove your clothes.
When you approach the water's edge,you hesitate momentarily feeling
(16:04):
the water's chill on your toes,
but you are determined to take the plunge.
(16:30):
With a deep breath, youdive into the water.
At first, the icy coldnesstakes your breath away.
But as you float on thesurface, you begin to feel the
(16:53):
refreshing embrace of the water.
The gentle waves rock youback and forth, lulling you.
(17:15):
Into a peaceful state of mind.
You close your eyes and let thewater swirl around you, feeling
(17:40):
it penetrate deep into your soul.
It is a moment of completesurrender to the power of nature.
(18:20):
As you flow along the dividing linebetween the blue and green seas,
the crystal clear water allows aglimpse into the underwater world,
the intricate dance of sunlighton the sandy bottom beneath.
(18:40):
Where small fish dart inand outta the shadows.
You enjoy the sensation of your feet,occasionally brushing against the
soft and velvety texture of the sand,
creating a connection with theground hidden beneath the waves.
(19:09):
Time seems to lose meaning as you float
and the world's worries fade away.
This swim is not just aninvigorating dip, but a soul
(19:34):
soothing communion with the elements.
Submerged In this peaceful space, youbecome attuned to the subtle currents and
feel the waters caress against your skin.
(20:10):
Floating between the blue and green seas,you sense a subtle shift in the current.
The water, once a tolerable temperature,gradually starts feeling colder.
(20:34):
You notice the temperature change witheach passing minute and realize it's
time to swim back towards the shore.
The chill intensifies with eachstroke as you begin swimming,
(20:59):
sending a shiver down your spine.
The cold water isinvigorating in its own way,
(21:24):
but you recognize the need toreturn to the warmth of the land.
(21:46):
Emerging from the water,
the cool sea air hits you,
chilling you to your cool.
You take a deep breath and feel thecold air filling your lungs, refreshing
(22:12):
and revitalizing you at the same time.
Walking towards the Blue Beachtowel you laid out earlier.
The sand crunches under your feet,
(22:41):
you reach the towel and noticethat the fabric warmed by the
sun offers a comforting cocoon.
Wrapping yourself up in the largetowel, you feel the cold that
(23:04):
previously permeated your skin.
Gradually replaced by thesoft fabric, soothing warmth.
(23:38):
While you sit on the beachwarming up in the towel,
you notice the wildlife around you.
The Jutland region with itsdiverse coastal ecosystems is a
(24:00):
haven for various bird species,
both resident and migratory.
On the shoreline.
The oyster catches.
With distinctive long orange beaks,probe the sand for a tasty morsel.
(24:47):
Haunting calls of thecurlew echo in the distance.
(25:18):
And when you look up, you notice a flockof Arctic turns soaring in the sky.
(25:49):
These birds embark on an incrediblejourney of over 30,000 kilometers
from their wintering grounds in theAntarctic to their breeding ground here.
(26:10):
Their grueling journey takesseveral months requiring remarkable
endurance and navigational skills
during the summer.
The Arctic turns spend their time inthis area raising their young and feeding
(26:37):
on fish and other marine life beforesetting off again on their Epic migration.
(27:15):
Feeling invigorated yet weary from yourswim, you returned to the beach cabin.
The sun is now beginning toset and the sky is painted in
(27:36):
a beautiful golden yellow huecasting a glow over the landscape.
The gentle sound of the waves
(27:57):
and the cool breeze create a peaceful,relaxing atmosphere as you cross the
sandy shore and head towards your cabin.
(28:49):
As you approach, the picturesqueview of the place becomes clearer.
The anticipation of finally being able torelax and unwind after a long swim between
two seas fills you with a sense of hope.
(29:34):
Entering the cabin.
You feel the cool wooden floorbeneath your feet and notice the
lingering scent of salt in the air.
The antique lace curtain sway gentlyoffering a comforting familiarity.
(30:12):
The sounds of nature envelop you.
As you settle onto the bed,
you can hear the distant calls ofseabirds and the rhythmic crashing
of waves against the shore.
(30:50):
The air holds the promiseof a peaceful sleep.
And as you close your eyes, yougive yourself over to the soothing
symphony of the natural world.
(31:19):
The black fishing cabin is a sanctuary.
That whispers lollies of the seato ease you into a restful slumber.
