Northern Lights

Lying on warm moss in the Arctic, watching ribbons of green and violet ripple across the sky.

Northern Lights sets the scene on a bed of warm moss in the Arctic, where the only task is to look up at green and violet colours moving across the sky.

You lie still while the lights dance above you, holding your attention without asking for any effort in return.

You lie back on warm moss looking up at an Arctic sky. Ribbons of green and violet ripple slowly overhead, a vast and silent light that needs nothing from you.

The ground beneath is soft and the air is cold, a simple contrast that lets the mind settle on the slow movement above.

What’s in it

Lying on warm moss, watching green and violet lights dance overhead.

Why do it

Staring at something so beautiful distracts the mind, letting the body relax and the imagination roam freely.

Where it sits

Beaches, forests, mountains, gardens, rivers, meadows.

Why going here does anything

Watching ribbons of green and violet gives the eyes a single gentle task, and when the eyes are occupied with beauty they stop looking for trouble elsewhere.

The imagination has room to roam across the sky because nothing here is demanding or fast. The scene simply holds your attention with light that moves in its own time.

Hypnosis is not for everyone. If you have epilepsy, a psychotic illness, or you are under psychiatric care, talk to your clinician before using this — here or anywhere.
