It’s beautiful how rivers hold the memory of the Earth in their layers, just like the light of stars holds the history of the universe. Truly a timeless journey
Lovely video but maybe a little babling brook in the background or blackscreen version of same video would be nice too 💡 more views for you🤷🏽 keep up the sleepy science with those sulty dolcet tones 🙏👍
Wishing a night of ease to all sleepy souls out there ❤ from Portugal
Thank you once again for a stunning vivid account! I am amazed how the brain takes over as it creates the vision of the very landscapes, wetlands, deltas, canyons and so on, that you describe. I lived on the banks of the Zambezi many years ago …this took me back there.
Our brains get lazy as we constantly view videos instead of using our imagination 😊
So calming and beautiful. It feels like drifting down a river of dreams.😘😘
Rivers have always had a calming effect on me. When I was younger, I used to sit by a small stream near my old neighborhood and just listen to the water flowing. Watching these videos brings back that same peaceful feeling the kind that makes it easy to drift off.
Hello love's!! I'm early…let me find a seat 😊🎉❤
Love to all ❤🎉
Hope all of y'all have a wonderful night sleep 😴 sending blessings 💜 Karen kreis
