This is the first in a series of relaxing water meditation videos designed to be without distraction. The focus of the scene is entirely on the flow of water and natural sounds which help connect the viewer to the scene. This is achieved through careful scene selection, video editing and sound engineering.

The video can be used as a meditation aid, played in the background when reading, working, studying or simply relaxing after a long day. Many people enjoy watching nature scenes when they are stressed, can't focus or have insomnia. Others who suffer from tinnitus also benefit when playing natural sounds as background "white noise". You could even play this at work during your break if you need a moment of calm.

Water has always been symbolic of serenity, purity and clarity of thought. Water is crucial for life... without it all life would wither and die. Water can be soothing, inspiring and rejuvenating to the mind, body and spirit. It can also be powerful and even destructive. Water is in many ways symbolic of life and our experience of it.

Guidelines on how to use this video for meditation:

Make yourself comfortable in a quiet room and try and free your mind of outside distractions and worries. Begin by breathing in deeply and slowly, imagining the troubles of life flowing in... and out... in... out... and away.

Instead of fighting against what life is throwing at you, imagine you're like the smooth rocks and boulders in the stream, allowing the water to easily slip over you. The flow of water has shaped them over millennia into the best possible form to be mostly unaffected by the current, both in calm and in flood.

Negative emotions like anger, jealousy, fear, hatred and regret make us obstacles in the flow of life that need to be smoothed off in order to find peace. Imagine while you're watching this video that all of these imperfections that are preventing you from experiencing true peace and happiness are being smoothed away.

Imagine that you can feel the cool, silky water flowing all around you. Listen to the sounds of nature and flowing water. Become part of the scene and experience the rhythm and flow of life without being an obstacle in it's path.

I really hope this video helps you connect a bit with your true self and with nature. It's all too easy to get caught up in the daily grind of life and never take the time to reflect. Please let me know in the comments if this video helps you. If it does, please consider sharing it with others you know who may need a moment of calm in their stressful lives. What better gift is there to share than peace? :)
