0:00.0	Hi, I'm Karissa Vacker and welcome back to Sleep Wave, a podcast where we let waves of relaxation wash over you through original sleep meditations created to help you
0:22.1	fall asleep tonight. And don't worry if you don't hear the end of an episode. I encourage you to
0:27.4	drift off whenever you're ready. Before we get started on tonight's episode, I'd like to say thank you
0:33.8	so much for all of the great ratings and reviews you guys have left us on Apple
0:37.5	podcasts and some of the other networks too. Our big hello and thanks tonight goes out to Giraff 310.
0:45.2	They used to get anxious about getting enough sleep, but since listening to Sleep Wave, they go to
0:50.0	sleep worry-free within 20 minutes. So if you too find that sleep has come easier since listening
0:56.2	to Sleep Wave and you've not yet reached out to us, please feel free to let us know. And consider

1:43.6	idea of the hero's journey, in which a hero leaves
1:47.4	their home to go on some type of quest, then they face inevitable trials, and then the hero
1:53.1	returns home again with gifts from their journey for the community.
1:57.8	This is a basic story structure for countless movies and books. One very famous one that comes
2:04.0	to mind is Star Wars. But you don't have to be a character in a movie or a book to go on your
2:10.2	own hero's journey. Over the course of our lives, we will all be asked to rise up to unexpected
2:16.6	challenges that might seem beyond our abilities.
2:20.7	One of the interesting things to me about the hero's journey is that the hero is often somewhat reluctant.
