Now I'd like you to get yourself comfortable sitting in a comfortable supportive chair or lying down on your bed or a similar flat surface that supports your body and you're comfortable. The main thing is that you're comfortable. So remember that you can change your physical position at any time.
You don't need to sit or lie there like a statue. There's no rewards or anything like that for being uncomfortable because that would just be defeating the object of relaxation because at the very least when you listen to this recording the very the very the least thing that you should gain from this is to feel more relaxed both during and after. And if you listen regularly to this or any of my other podcasts you may notice that you just automatically start to relax naturally.
It's almost you know it's weird but it's almost as if just by pressing the play button you're sending that signal to your mind to just slow down. My voice is going all croaky. So your mind just starts to slow down.
Your body starts to feel more relaxed and it's a pleasant feeling to be fair. It's just a nice feeling. It's there's nothing particularly magical involved.
It's really just a case of letting go of the tension and the stress from your body and from your mind. So listening to me could be a mixture of a distraction from stuff that you were thinking about before. It could be just nice to take your mind away from other stuff and just enjoy being with yourself to just enjoy letting go.
And I know maybe some people if they're listening for the first time they may think well if I was able to let go that easily I wouldn't be listening to this recording which is fair enough. I've been there in the past I had huge amounts of stress and anxiety and I was very ill with it. Very very ill very unwell in my earlier years and over the years over time I've learnt different ways to just let go.
It doesn't mean it doesn't mean I could always do it at all. I'm not perfect and sometimes things do grab me and I struggle to to loosen my attachment to those stresses and anxiety feelings connected to whatever's happening. However eventually given the right circumstances which for me is this to be able to just relax in a safe space where ideally you're not going to be interrupted but if you are it's okay it's not a big deal.
You can just press pause and you know you may have children that may need your attention or a loved one or whatever. You may be flying a you know a plane so you just need to you need to land the plane or something. Please don't be listening if you're flying a plane.
So basically giving just allowing yourself some space regardless if you listen to me or anyone else regardless if you're listening to music or if you're just listening to the weather. That in itself can be nice just to sit down and do nothing and it might be windy outside or at the moment for me there's it's very sunny not much wind but there is a pigeon called Herbert singing.
He likes to sing his little pigeon song.
So in this kind of situation I might just sit down on my chair it's a reclining chair so just recline back close my eyes and just get in touch with the feeling of the room the temperature of the room noticing the temperature on my hands maybe my arms my face my eyelids noticing the temperature of the air as it enters my lungs noticing the feeling of the air as it enters my nostrils or my mouth and just being aware of how you feel noticing the sounds around you for example right
now I've got my neighbor downstairs he's I don't know he's probably in the kitchen doing something I can hear a bit of banging around nothing major doesn't matter because it's just sound it's just sounds there's always going to be sounds of some kind even if you is on the top of a mountain you're going to hear the wind you can hear the weather you're going to hear birds and even if there's no birds and the weather's calm you're going to hear your own breathing there's always going to be sounds and
that in itself can actually help you to relax so you've got the sound of my voice some people may find my voice relaxing and I imagine those that find my voice grating and wouldn't wouldn't be listening if that was the case but you know everyone likes certain things and if you find a relaxing voice one of my favorite voices there's a lady that did a recording that I listened to in the late 90s and she had for me the perfect voice it was almost like an angel blowing into my ear
that sounds a bit weird but she was just the most amazing voice and that's suited me so once you've found a voice that soothes you and you feel comfortable you feel relaxed you feel safe with that voice then the rest may feel quite easy it's almost sliding down a slide you've jumped off the you know you've pushed yourself off the top and you just slide gently down you don't actually have to do anything you can control what speed you go you know by gripping the side or you can just let
go of the side and relax completely and ultimately all this is is a feeling that's all it is it's just a feeling a feeling of comfort a feeling of calmness a feeling of maybe tranquility whatever word you want to use maybe you've got your own word that you would use to describe the feeling where you pretty much feel amazing like there's absolutely nothing bothering you at all and the way you feel in this moment it's got nothing to do with anything that the world is doing at all it's got nothing
to do with your life nothing to do with the world or anyone in your life nothing to do with reality nothing to do with imagination this is just a feeling that you are experiencing in this moment and it's almost as if you're just sitting in that feeling i kind of have an image of just resting on a big leaf and like a caterpillar just resting on a big leaf pretty much invisible the same color as the leaf can't be seen pretty much by anybody left alone it's just resting there has
everything he needs if he wants to eat he can eat if he wants to go to sleep he can go to sleep safely because he can't be seen and he feels so calm and relaxed so there's that sense of it's just a feeling entering into a feeling and once you step into that feeling you realize that there's nothing else like it there's a sense of health a sense of almost infinity but there's no there's no limits so we're not limited by our body when we're in that feeling anything that's going
on with your body is completely it completely disappears in this moment the past disappears the future doesn't exist and even the present vanishes you're just here you're just almost as if you just stepped out of time and you're in almost a different dimension somewhere where you can't be found you can't be touched you can't be spoken to or you don't have to do anything it's a place within your mind this feeling it's just a feeling it's a powerful feeling it's a feeling of healing because when you're in that feeling your
body and your mind starts to heal and you don't have to do anything doesn't need any energy because the energy is infinite when you're in that feeling and it is just a feeling a very powerful feeling that feeling that you're in now where nothing matters it's almost as if nothing exists it's just you it's my voice and there's this feeling and i guess the feeling can be connected to my voice it's almost like my words the energy from my words are providing you with this feeling although the reality is you
have this feeling inside you all the time where you can visit as often as you choose to rest to recuperate to take a break to just relax and it feels so nice to know that there's nothing needed from you there's absolutely nothing that you need to say or do it's almost as if the world doesn't even exist when you're in this feeling and it's a very very peaceful experience as you let go completely of everything let go completely of everything enjoying just being just being without wanting without needing nothing to
ask nothing to answer just being inside that feeling it's almost as if your body no longer exists it's just a feeling as you're inside that bubble of that feeling completely safe and safe and secure and so so relaxed and peaceful so so relaxed and peaceful and you can stay inside that feeling of peacefulness for as long as you choose to feel so incredibly relaxed so safe and peaceful completely let go of absolutely everything everything's gone let go of everything as i count from 10 down to one you can allow that feeling of safety and of peace to increase with every number from 10 down to one creasing in a peaceful feeling 10 9 8 7 6 4 3 2 1
