Jakata MindVibes

The Monkey Who Waited — Jātaka MindVibes, Track 1 🐒🫁

Your restless mind, but make it gentle. Inspired by a Jātaka-style fable, this track teaches attention-without-the-tantrum: a calm pulse, bamboo-flute phrases, and space to breathe before you pounce on the next banana (or email).

How to use (pick one)
	•	Breathwork (audio-only): Inhale 4, soft hold 1, exhale 6. Repeat for 3–5 minutes.
	•	Mindfulness: Label the next thought “monkey,” wave, return to the sound.
	•	PMR mini-release: With each flute phrase, relax brow → jaw → tongue → shoulders.

Best moments

Pre-meeting nerves • Task switching • Doom-scroll detox • Study focus • “I just need 90 seconds to be a person again.”

60-second micro-script

Inhale 1-2-3-4… tiny pause… exhale 1-2-3-4-5-6.
Notice a thought. “Monkey.” Wave. Return to breath.
Soften jaw. Shoulders down.
One more exhale longer than the inhale. Enough for now.

Story thread

In the old tale, a jittery monkey learns patience is a muscle. One breath becomes a bridge; waiting becomes wisdom.

Gong Ageng Tumandang (The Monkey Who Waited)

The Elephant Who Forgave — Jātaka MindVibes, Track 2 🐘💛

A calm, steady pulse for self-compassion with a spine. This Jātaka-inspired piece pairs low drum “heartbeats”, warm strings and a temple bell to help you let go of the day, forgive your very human edges, and get back to centre without the melodrama.

How to use (pick one)
	•	Breathwork (audio-only): Inhale 4, exhale 8. Long out-breaths nudge the vagus nerve and soften the inner critic.
	•	Self-compassion pause: Hand on heart for three breaths; on the last, whisper: “We repair.”
	•	PMR mini-release: Unclench hands → forearms → upper arms, then soften jaw and brow.

Best moments

After a wobble • Post-argument reset • Bedtime shame-gremlins • Morning re-do • Any time you need a kinder narrator.

60-second micro-script

Inhale 1-2-3-4… exhale 1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8.
Notice the thought that’s stinging. Name it “critic”.
Hand on chest. “I did my best; I’ll do better.”
One more slow out-breath. Shoulders down. Enough for now.

Story thread

In the old tale, a great elephant chooses mercy over spectacle. Not because it’s easy—because it keeps the herd moving. Forgiveness here isn’t a medal; it’s maintenance.

Gajah Sing Ngapura (The Elephant Who Forgave)

The Jackal’s Lament — Jātaka MindVibes, Track 3 🐺🔥

Anger without the bite. This Jātaka-inspired piece gives your heat a safe corridor — frame drum heartbeat, low drone and chant you can walk to — so the jackal in you can pace, growl, then settle. Think fierce compassion, not forced “calm”.

How to use (pick one)
	•	Breathwork: Box breath 4-4-4-4 for 2 minutes, then lengthen the exhale to 6 for another minute.
	•	Somatic discharge: Clench fists for 3 seconds → release (x3). Add two grounded stomps and a shoulder drop.
	•	Boundary rehearsal: Practise a clean seven-word line: “I respect us both; my answer is no.”
	•	Aftercare: Draft the message, schedule for morning, drink water.

Best moments

Unfair email • Moral injury • Post-shift debrief • Before a hard conversation • When “calm down” makes you louder.

60-second micro-script

Stand. Feet heavy, crown light.
Inhale 4 — hold 4 — exhale 4 — hold 4 (twice).
Clench/release fists. Shoulders down.
Whisper your boundary once.
Save the draft; morning gets the Lion.
Long exhale… enough for now.

Story thread

In the old tale, a wounded jackal guards a ruined temple with his teeth. A traveller offers a drum. The jackal learns: heat is holy — aim it kindly.

The Jackal’s Lament

The Turtle Beneath the Sea — Jātaka MindVibes, Track 4 🐢🌊

A lullaby for overworked nervous systems. Ocean-soft swells, low flute and a gentle hum invite you to sink, not fight—the turtle way. Use it for pre-sleep rituals, post-overwhelm resets, or whenever your brain insists 2 a.m. is ideal for life planning.

Not for driving or heavy machinery. This one wins bedtime.

How to use (pick one)
	•	Breathwork for sleep: 4-7-8 — inhale 4, hold 7, exhale 8 (optional soft hum on the out-breath).
	•	PMR (progressive muscle relaxation): Toes → calves → thighs → belly → chest → hands → arms → shoulders → face. Clench 3 seconds, release.
	•	Grounded “float”: Place one hand on belly, one on chest; feel the hands rise and fall like waves.

Best moments

Pre-sleep • After a hard day • Post-panic come-down • Sunday scaries • When your thoughts are tap-dancing in steel-toed boots.

60-second micro-script

Lights dim. Phone exiled.
Inhale 1-2-3-4… hold 1-2-3-4-5-6-7… exhale 1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8 (hum if you like).
Unclench jaw. Tongue rests.
Toes curl/release… calves… thighs… belly soft.
Whisper: “Nothing to fix. Just float.”
One more long exhale. Let sleep find you.

Story thread

A timid turtle teaches the village: safety isn’t always running—sometimes it’s sinking into still water until the storm passes. Rest as strategy, not surrender.

Kura-Kura Ing Sangisoring Segara (The Turtle Beneath The Sea)

The Deer and the Wind — Jātaka MindVibes, Track 5 🦌🌬️

Sensitivity as a superpower. This Jātaka-inspired piece is light, airy and precise—wind chimes, soft strings and heartbeat shakers—to help finely tuned nervous systems bend without breaking. It’s not about numbing; it’s about accurate noticing.

How to use (pick one)
	•	Breathwork (soft focus): Inhale 3, exhale 6. Let shoulders drop on each out-breath.
	•	PMR mini-release: Ears → scalp → back of neck (the “antennae”). Clench 3 seconds, release.
	•	Sensory reset (3-2-1): Name 3 sounds, 2 colours, 1 texture you can feel.
	•	Social buffer: Before/after busy rooms, play once and widen your attention instead of bracing.

Best moments

Crowded spaces • First days • Pre-presentation nerves • After tough conversations • Any time you’re “picking up everything”.

60-second micro-script

Soften gaze—include the edges of the room.
Inhale 1-2-3… exhale 1-2-3-4-5-6.
Unclench ears (yes, really), neck long, jaw easy.
Hear three sounds; name two colours; feel one texture.
Whisper: “Widen. No fixing.”
One more long out-breath. Accurate and steady.

Story thread

In the old tale, the deer survives not by armouring up but by listening well and moving wisely. Soft isn’t weak—it’s true.

Kidang Lan Angin (The Deer And The Wind)

The Tree and the Storm — Jātaka MindVibes, Track 8 🌳⛈️

Resilience without rigidity. Low drums, bowed strings and rain-wash textures help you root down, rise up and sway—the way real trees survive weather. This is a track for witnessing, not wrestling: you are the tree; thoughts are the weather.

How to use (pick one)
	•	Grounding breath: Inhale 4, exhale 6. Imagine the exhale travelling down through your feet into the soil.
	•	Sway practice (pendulation): Stand, soften knees, and gently sway side-to-side with the pulse. Let the breath lead the sway.
	•	Orienting: Name 3 things you can see, 2 you can hear, 1 you can feel on your skin.
	•	Aftercare note: One sentence in a journal: “What passed like weather?”

Best moments

After tough news • Post-therapy integration • Pre-meeting nerves • Family gatherings • Any time you need to be the witness, not the whirl.

60-second micro-script

Feet wide, knees soft.
Inhale 1-2-3-4… exhale 1-2-3-4-5-6 (roots).
Crown light; shoulders melt.
Gentle sway with the drum: left… right… centre.
Whisper: “I am the tree. This is weather.”
One long exhale. Stay.

Story thread

In the old tale, a young tree tries to be a wall and snaps. The elder tree sways and survives. Strength is flexible. Witnessing is an action.
