Soon, I'm having the reaction I'll continue to have in the weeks ahead, and then the months ahead.

The best way I can explain this feeling is like I'm blasting off in a rocket in my mind,

to a place where nothing exists but space and time.

And I'm just away from everything.

Until now, the world was so intense that it just consumed me,

forcing me to react to one thing or another. Now, though,

I close my eyes, and I can separate from the world in this truly peaceful way. Do you ever wonder what it's like to be really famous?

As a kid, Jacob Sartorius started making music and short videos about the things that mattered to him.

Anti-bullying, mental well-being, and by age 14, he was a huge

celebrity, with millions of followers who loved his honest, heartfelt songs and videos. But of course,

there is a dark side to that level of celebrity, too, one that took Jacob by surprise and threatened

his own well-being.

In today's meditative story, Jacob talks about recognizing that struggle, about how a simple

technique and a new friend helped him find a way back to himself, one breath at a time.

In this series, we combine immersive first-person stories, breathtaking music and

mindfulness prompts so that we may see our lives reflected back to us in other people's stories,

and that can lead to improvements in our own inner lives.

From Wait What, this is meditative story.

I'm Rohan, and I'll be your guide. The body relaxed.

The body breathing.

Your senses open.
