Visualize the waves of the ocean to anchor you in this guided meditation led by Julie Potiker. She completes the meditation with the poem, "It is Born", by Mary Heebner.

This version ends with music allowing you to drift off into sleep.

It is Born, by Mary Heebner
Here I came to the very edgewhere nothing at all needs saying,everything is absorbed through weather and the sea,and the moon swam back,its rays all silvered,and time and again the darkness would be brokenby the crash of a wave,and every day on the balcony of the sea,wings open, fire is born,and everything is blue again like morning.
-It is Born, by Mary Heebner, translated by Alastair Reidfrom Neruda; On the blue shore of silence, poems of the sea.
