Nice!
Good choice.
Say it aloud.
Log in your coordinates (i.e City):
What’s outside?
Describe the view:
Let’s go.
Pause.
Relax.
Pause.
Go to starting point.
It’s going really well.
Be here for a moment. Be still.
It’s going well.
Yes, actually go there (if you can).
Or go there in your minds eye.
Take your time. Remember, don’t rush.
Breath deep.
Breath slow.
What can you hear?
What does that remind you of?
Now, take three steps in a different direction and stop. Lovely.
What can you see now?
Now, look at the floor.
What colour is it?
What does it remind you of?
Imagine it is a different colour.
Got that?
Good.
Let’s make a progression to the bed.
Estimate the distance in steps that you need to take.
Can you stand behind the headboard of your bed?
Yes?
No?
Maybe?
If "No" Don’t worry.
Imagine you can.
This will give you an opportunity to look at your bedroom in a different way - a way you’ve not seen it before.
Is there dust under the bed?
Now would be a good time to have that beer if you have one in the kitbag.
What can you hear now?
Can you hear the silence behind the noise?
Tell me about that door again.
Panels? Flat? Modern? Old?
Door handle or knob??
Let’s focus on that handle/knob.
How many people have used that handle/knob?
I wonder who was the first. Who will be next?
Will it still be in use in a 100 years time?
Close your eyes.
Picture the room in a hundred years time. Then open them when ready.
Thank you!
You did it!
Take a postcard
That’s great.
Well done.
Stop the clock

Thank you.
I've got two things to give you as
mementos of your voyage today.
Pick whichever one you prefer first:
Now, this has been quite a journey.
You may feel a little fatigued later. ( a bit like jet lag)
Take it easy.
Under no circumstances operate heavy machinery during the reminder of the day.
By all means, have a cup of tea and a biscuit.
Thank you.
Happy travelling!

Postcard.
This postcard is for you to thank you, for the postcard you've written - keep it as a souvenir or send it to a friend...
Glue onto cardboard. Sellotape safety pin onto back - like in the Beano.
Everyone who makes a voyage around my bedroom gets one of these...
This will remind you to slow down and notice the beauty in the everyday, things that we often take for granted. It will remind you to enjoy the little details in life... and if you look closely - you'll see there's a face...
These are your backpack items, make sure you have 3 of them:
