(Long Music) #4 The brain has no pain - Let me bore your PAIN AWAY (Jason Newland) (7th October 2022)

Hello and welcome to jasonnewland.com. My name is Jason and this is a recording of some kind and I'm kind of mixed between what I should, not what I should do but what I'd like to do. So it's either going to be a Let Me Bore You To Sleep, let me bore your pain away or a fibromyalgia session. I think I'm going to do let me bore your pain away.

Yeah that's what I'm going to do today. So there's a lot of similarities with the Let Me Bore You To Sleep but we're focusing on pain. We're focusing on a part of your body that is giving you distress, causing you problems, so chronic pain.

That's what we're focusing on and the idea is to bore that part of you in this session. We're going to bore that part, just that part. The rest of you can be fine and stay exactly how it is if you choose but that particular part is what I'm going to talk to.

I'm going to talk to that part of your body. So if you want to consciously listen to what I'm saying you can. If you're prepared to be bored for the next hour and although this isn't sleep, it's not about drifting off to sleep or anything like that apart from maybe that part of your body that we're talking about.

You should only listen to this or any of my sessions when you can safely close your eyes including if you're watching them on YouTube or my website. Everything that I do is available on my website jasonnewland.com and my YouTube channel is Jason Newland's Free Hypnosis Service, I think. Anyway, the link, it's easy.

Just Google my name or search for my name on YouTube. I'm quite easy to find. I'm the bloke that if you look at some of the older videos between 2006 and or 2007 rather probably with YouTube and 2017 I aged and my beard grew and shrunk considerably.

Sometimes I had curly hair, sometimes I had a bald head. So yeah, that's me in various states of hairiness, I suppose. So we're going to focus on the part of your body.

When I say body, I'm including your head as well because it's all part of you. It's part of your physical makeup. I was going to say physical entity.

I don't know if that's a correct description. It's really weird because it's such a weird smell. It's like my t-shirt had farted.

I don't know maybe it's I was holding Andre and maybe he's a little bit of a stink off on me. I don't know but it's weird. With ferrets, they don't.

He does fart to be fair. I mean like I but he and it doesn't happen all the time. Occasionally he lets off a stink.

We just call it letting off and it's a proper pong and there's different types of pongs and sometimes it's because he's angry. Sometimes he's excited and frustrated. I think it's an emotional thing and I suppose sometimes it's just a hormonal thing.

He used to do it a lot more when he was younger when he was a baby and there's been times when you know I've got a clean t-shirt on and he's crawled on me and he's let a stink off and the t-shirt was just stinking. I had to change the t-shirt. I've had to open the window sometimes just it's usually it's fine but occasionally really you know especially if another ferret comes near him he lets a stink off.

It's off a pong. Anyway I'm now just going to talk to that part of your body.

So before we do that I'd like you if you can to gauge between let's say between 1 and 10 on a scale of the pain what level you would put it out and I understand that if you've listened to me before or even maybe even if it's for the first time you may have noticed this a degree of relief already and that can just happen even after I just said those words you can maybe notice that maybe the surrounding area of that part of your body just the surround like a little map make a little map of that discomfort.

So therefore dividing and separating it from the rest of your body somehow allows it to or just naturally feel a bit more comfortable.

So anyway I'd like you to gauge it from one to ten give it a mark that way it's not an exam it won't be tested but the idea in a sense is and you're the only one that's going to know you don't have to tell anybody but of course if you if you would like to leave a comment on the website on the podcast or on YouTube video just to say where you were when you started and then where you were at the end so when you finish this when we

come to the end of this session you can notice the difference and notice how how much it's gone down what number it's gone down to so one it would be let's say practically it's comfortable let's say completely comfortable and a level that you're really happy and you feel fine and ten being you know worst worst case scenario worst pain you know level so just gives you an idea if you want because again as I said there's no there's no right or wrong way of doing this so I'm not going to

know how you decide to do it but you can gauge it in a different way you can go 1 to 20 or 0 to 20 or 0 to 100 you know if you can do it whatever way suits you best so when you notice how it's gone down how you feel more comfort you can log that yourself you can notice that what number you would give it compared to before you decided to allow yourself to relax you know that if you actually wanted to you can allow that number to just

go down on its own so you don't have to move the thing down it just automatically moves down the gauge the marker or the liner or the star or whatever it is that's the thread of a needle whatever it is that's giving you the gauge you could even be done in a pie chart if you wanted to do that I always found pie charts very disappointing I like pies I don't mind charts but I like pies but I didn't really find that it's like a false promise really you get there

and it's just a circle divided into parts it's not tasty so you can focus just on that part again in a sense like a pie chart wow it's amazing how I'm putting this stuff all together it's all linking it's like a like a multi-layered sandwich and multi-layer all the sandwiches are multi-layered and now you have to you've got more than one layer unless you don't class the bread as a layer but it is a layer really isn't it you've got the bread then you've got the margarine or butter then you've

got the filling maybe you've got more than one filling so that's another two layers then you've got the margarine of the upstairs bit of bread and then you've got a piece of bread so that's potentially one two three four five layers and then you've got the bit of air between and the air on top and the surface at the bottom maybe a plate so technically that's another layer and then you've got the surface of the kitchen cabinet or whatever the table that's supporting the plate it's another layer and then you've

got the floor that's supporting the table another layer but yeah anyway focusing just on that area i'm just going to talk to that area now i'm going to ignore you sorry about that but this isn't about you this is about that area this is about me boring that part of your body so the the feelings that you had there reduce and although this is kind of an unusual way to do things i'm still here to help i'm still here with the intention that you will gain some benefit and even though

at times it may seem like i'm just talking for the sake of talking and there's a lot truth in that i don't have uh much of a social life so this is this is like a party to me this is uh this is a dinner party but the only people invited are me and that part of your body that's i'm going to be talking to and boring you're you're kind of like the chaperone of that part of your body you're here just to make sure things are fine and just to

oversee everything and you haven't really got to do anything just sit there or lie down whatever you decide and i'm just going to talk to that part of your body it's a bit like if you took a goldfish to the vets you know you put the bowl down and the vet does the work you can't not really that involved you mean the vet might ask questions you know how often you take it for a walk and you know what kind of diet it's on and uh has it had its injections

and you know all those kind of things do you you know does it have toys does it play regularly does it good sleeping habits does you know does it wake you up at night to go to the toilet things how often you know things like just general things you might get asked but i'm not going to do that with you i'm not going to ask you any questions about this part of your body because i don't need to know that so you can just ignore what i'm about to talk about

i'm just going to talk to that part of your body and i'm going to talk directly to it and i'm going to ask it to do some things and some of it might not be as boring to you as it is but that's okay because although i give this title let me bore your pain away i just i just quite like the title it means it's not such a serious title and i'm not getting you know it's it's it's bad enough to have to deal you know with chronic pain as

it is without you know listening to audios that take themselves a bit too seriously i i don't want to do that i just want to maybe be quite light but not physically because i'm overweight but light as in doing things a little bit differently but at the same time aiming for a result because you know there's so many different ways to for you to actually feel differently so many and i could probably spend about a year talking non-stop about the different versions you know the different types of ways to change

the way that you physically feel because we're always you know we're always changing how we feel anyway not purposely but just generally you know we're constantly changing occasionally you'll hear the chair creak like this but that's okay because it doesn't really affect me and that's the main thing really um it's just a creaky chair you know if i started yelling then yeah obviously that that would be perhaps a bit disturbing or if you heard me in the background doing somersaults and i fell over and i started like crying because i

hurt my leg and sort of getting ambulance and of course that's not going to be a good session it's not going to be a good recording might be quite humorous for those listening but not good for me and that would affect me because you know i'm a trooper but i don't think i'd be able to i wouldn't sort of say to the ambulance well hold on for another half an hour because i'm in the middle of a recording that's more important probably probably wouldn't do that so i'm now going to

talk to that part of your body before we do it let's just have a little gauge of what number it is at now on that pain chart of yours just notice what number it's gone down to and you may be surprised that it's gone down and wonder why has it gone down all this bloke this bloke on this recording this podcast this video this audio whatever you're listening to me well it's just been talk about nothing how could that possibly help you to feel differently feel you know differently it's just

it's kind of it's a weird one but you know it's just the way it is but sometimes and i think it's about intention because i'm guessing that you're not sitting there or lying down listening to this thinking i hope he fails i hope i hope it feels even worse at the end of it you know because if you're thinking that way then you might as well turn off the cd or the audio or the video and go and play with some lego or eat some pizza or do something more enjoyable

because this isn't something that i do to you this is an experience that we share and we we enjoy hopefully together so we both get bored together i do bore myself but that's okay because i like i like being boring i've embraced it i'm kind of like someone that's decided never to bathe again you know just embrace the smell the stink so that's it i'm not gonna not gonna have another bath ever except i've done it with boredom i do i do wash it's part of contract with my with my

flat my housing it's the neighbors complain so i have to wash and that was a joke they didn't complain but i do have to wash so apparently it ruins the walls too much bad smell just erodes the walls away apparently i don't know if that's true i made up but you know if you make enough things up something's gonna be true isn't it just keep making things up something's gonna be true but then how do we know what's true and what's made up when everything's made up so now i'm just

going to talk to that part that particular part of your body that's already got that surround in kind of a line surrounding in the same way a map would surround a continent or a country so here we go so i'm trying to think should i give that part of you that little that part that little one i'm gonna say it's little it might be a big part but oh a little bit of gas there i'm not sure if i should give it a name you might have a name for it

already but um let's call it merlin i realize it's a male noun but merlin's kind of a made-up name anyway isn't it really apart from the person that was called merlin so let's call him merlin that part so i'm going to talk to merlin now hi merlin i'm jason nice to meet you well not that nice but you know it's it's we don't really know each other do we it's but it's i'd like to get to know you so that i can ask you to do some things for me but

it's not really for me it's it's for the rest of your body but i'm just gonna talk directly to you no matter how how weird it would be or maybe for the rest of you that's listening to me talking to you who i've decided to name merlin when the rest of you specifically the head may be thinking but i don't want it to be called merlin and i'm still gonna call you merlin very stubborn like that because it doesn't matter that's why i could call you orangina queen merlin could call

you butterfly butterfly cookie it could be it could be anything you know i'm trying to think of a name that is a bit away from the norm as far as names go not that it's a normal name anymore i could call you jason jason's a really good name all babies should be called jason i don't know why they're not it just seems like a perfect name i don't know why everyone doesn't call their kids jason so merlin this is directed directly at you and i know that i just said directed

and directly in the same sentence and that was very unnecessary of me but i don't think that's the main point here the main point is i'd like for you to just listen to my voice and i'd like for you to change the way that you're feeling and this is only going to be beneficial to you and the rest of your body there are no downsides there no there's no negatives with this it's all about more comfort and allowing you to just express yourself i'd like you to if you wanted you

could sing a little song it'd be quite weird if you did start singing because i wouldn't really know what to do next plus i wouldn't hear it would i but so if there's a way of expressing because you know at the moment you're expressing yourself with physical sensations and that crack then that was my big toe i don't know why my big toes crack and in the everyday i do that because isn't it just a bit of like gas in between the joints isn't it just gets released i never see

the gas rising you know i don't ever crack my crack my toes and there'll be a smoke rises out of my socks that never happens i suppose like a little little toe fart something so as i talk to you zelda or what was it merlin that's it merlin sorry about that i just i couldn't be bothered to remember your name so i'm jason um as i'm sure you agree that it's a much much nicer name than merlin so and it's about not getting too attached to things like names or feelings

and also i'd like to say to you that i kind of want to tell you off a little bit but i want to do it gently right you're called been causing problems for the rest of your body and i know that you don't mean to okay and no one's blaming you it may seem like that sometimes and you may feel that you're getting a bit too much attention at times and that might be true but then you know sometimes it is that way you know if someone's who's got that's got

five children the child that plays up the most will possibly get the most attention which is sometimes why that child will play up because that's maybe the way they the only way they think they can get attention so perhaps because you're a small part of a very big family of limbs and body parts bones internal organs skin hair blood vessels heart liver kidney all that stuff teeth eyeballs brain fingernails toenails you know you're part of that whole thing but sometimes maybe you feel left out you feel that why why are

you separate from the rest and there are ways that you can correct this if you want to do so and there's a few things you can do so um horace no not horace um merlin that's it merlin there's a few ways you can do it you can do it in a dilution way a diluted way in the same way as when you dilute something it becomes less for example if you were to put big heap teen teaspoon of salt into an average size glass of water you wouldn't be able to

drink that water it'd just be it'd be just really horrible unless of course you love salty water but you know you taste the salt that's all you taste however if you had a swimming pool full of clean water and you poured that same amount of salt into the middle of that pool you could have a drink of water and not taste even a tiniest bit of salt because it's been diluted in the same way and i should be a physicist shouldn't i some kind of mathematician or some i definitely should

be a scholar yeah i should dr dr jason i think that'd be a good name for me doctor doc morning doc hello inferior person i could just talk to people hello inferior just talk i could talk down to people it'd be brilliant i wouldn't do that i wouldn't and don't need to be a doctor to do that anyway that's just being rude isn't it and i'm not rude i'm i'm very unrude person so these are solutions these are some options that you could test out okay merlin the dilution process is

basically by diluting these feelings that are in this particular part yeah that i'm talking to now by allowing that just to spread it just dilutes so it feels less and less and the more it dilutes the more it spreads out overflows over those lines that are around it that part of the body just starts to feel exactly the same as the rest of your body calm relaxed loose healthy so that's one way one way you could do it if you wanted to i'm gonna i'm gonna leave the choice up to

you you may have decided to already do that but to be honest with you we're still got at least 26 minutes left with me talking and i'm going to continue to talk to you so even if you have already done what you want to do and given the rest of your body the comfort that you deserve to feel calm relaxed and healthy then i'm still going to continue to talk to you because i've got no one else to talk to so i am going to continue what other ideas you could

do other things that you could do so if you've ever been to the dentist or i think most people have at some point if you have any kind of dental work done quite often you'd have to have an injection to numb that part of your mouth and then you've got that feeling in your cheeks and your jaw and it feels like your jaw is and your mouth is like three times as big as it actually is and you feel like you're dribbling when well you might be dribbling but you know

generally probably not but when i've had it done i don't actually check to see if i'm dribbling because i don't care i like the idea of dribbling everywhere especially if i'm in public it's uh it's an excuse to dribble really i think it's a good thing it's um that's just me so you know it's the same as it being in a hospital i'd wet the bed you know if i'm in hospital i'll wet the bed because you can it's not my bed i haven't got to clean it so yeah it's

a good good opportunity just to sort yourself and get away with it without getting arrested or anyway let's focus on on the subject so that feeling you can actually imagine having that injection in in your part in the part of the body that i'm talking to now but when you imagine that happening apart from the fact that you're already imagining it and you don't actually have to do anything more than that because just by mentioning it you you you start to feel that sensation but imagining it in that part of

the body now part of Merlin that i'm talking to now your part and you having that little injection that numbness comes over you that's another way experiencing that i mean in a way it's like a literal thing as well because i remember i had i still do i have a shoulder injury that's why i'm an expert on everything to do with shoulders i'm not i'm not an expert on anything although i do know quite a bit about um television because i've watched television for quite a few years i know quite

a bit about boxing as well and i don't know why but i seem to enjoy studying the stats the boxing stats you know fight records of boxes from you know generations back all the way till now and i go on wikipedia and i click on a boxer and then i'll click on their record and i'll just click on a boxer in that record and just cross reference and you'll count how many world titles that people have gone for and just all that kind of stuff i just find it quite interesting

and sometimes it's nice to just do something a bit pointless to just you know allow the day to just drip by or allow the time to just go by in its own time maybe doing something enjoying maybe doing something that you just feel relaxed and calm doing nothing maybe so you've got the dilution you can dilute the feeling let it overflow and just get to the point where the whole of your body feels relaxed and calm and healthy you can have that like a dental injection but as i was saying

about my shoulder i actually went to the hospital and had a steroid injection i had two but only one at a time and they i think they inject right into the nerves or something and then pretty much instantly that area feels completely different i had movement that i hadn't had for a while i could do handstands again i decided to take up hand gliding become a professional arm wrestler you know just general things and the doctor said well don't do that because it's not good for your shoulder i said it's

just a handstand he said no the wrestling the arm wrestling i said it's not real wrestling though is it it's just a arm arm hand against the hand it's more elbow action than the wrist action isn't it than shoulder and the doctor said no it does include your shoulder and i said well yeah but it's more your hands and your muscles isn't it and he said no it does include your shoulder and in the end we ended up having an arm wrestle which i don't think was very professional because firstly

i didn't have any trousers on although he did he did say that i didn't need to take my trousers off for an help for a shoulder injection but he said um i just was a little bit unethical but you know so well one second he's telling me not to do arm wrestling because of my shoulder the next thing he's he's trying to beat me in a tournament arm wrestling tournament it's just make up your mind very much like the Sylvester Stallone film i couldn't believe it and not many films are

you know that realistic but that really was i couldn't believe it because i walked into this bar and suddenly i was in America which surprised me because i live in Essex and in England and i saw i went in there and very rowdy very rowdy and everyone was wearing hats they were indoors but they were wearing hats so maybe the lighting was a bit too bright i imagine that it was a high ceiling so maybe that's what it is the person that maybe bought bought the the bar and but you

couldn't exchange or change the lights over because the ceiling was too high so you had to leave the light bulbs in there and they were just fully fully fully bright so everyone had to wear hats to shade their eyes from the glare of the light in the highest ceiling maybe i was very surprised though because i remember i took my jacket off and i didn't realize how muscular my arms were suddenly i just had these huge biceps very very very weird so there's a distraction technique that's another thing that Merlin

you can do you can do this where you think about other things and not only the good thing about distraction is you can also know that it's a distraction yet we have a focus you know we have a way of focusing on things and i know sometimes i'll i'll be laying on my bed and well it's not sometimes it's every day but you know particularly maybe it's uh might be early morning might be an afternoon nap and that's not really that important but it's just i'm lying on my bed and

there'll be some background action going on it might even be Andre doing some weird things in the kitchen or it might be somebody outside in the garden or something someone in the distance and i just hear i hear you know the sound the sound is continuous but for some reason my hearing just seems to turn off and it's not that i feel that i'm asleep necessarily although i guess perhaps i was but my hearing just seemed to turn right off just as if invisible earplugs had been carefully and lovingly placed

into my earlobes very gently but firmly but they had a little bit of string attached to the outside and just completely pulled out and i could hear things so that that drifting in and out of just hearing things and then not hearing them by hearing things i mean things that were actually happening very unusual so that's a distraction that kind of happens on its own you know where you start thinking about something else and and sometimes it can be a trick triggered by something that you hear so someone starts talking

about for example an ice cube just being placed on this body part and allowing the ice cube to just sit there and soak into the skin so you might be focusing on the ice cube you might be focusing on on how it feels to have that coldness on your skin but then your mind might wander a little bit and you might start thinking about icebergs and polar bears and peter pan maybe i'm not sure what the leap is poke i think it's the boats that's it boats i don't know there

are no polar bears in peter pan there is a boat and usually there's boats involved when we see icebergs or polar bears because they have to get the pictures from somewhere you know generally they're quite often on boats they can't just uh can't hand glide over or paraglide or do handstands and some people may think well why why don't you use your other arm to arm wrestle why couldn't you say that to a doctor use your other arm so it doesn't affect you your shoulder but then i don't want to

use my other arm because i'm worried i might hurt my shoulder and you might say but then you argued that it didn't affect your shoulder before i said yeah i just had a steroid injection i think anything that hurt must hurt my shoulder i think it's pretty much it felt like it was invincible it kind of felt like it was i don't know i'd had some kind of like superhero experience you know like i'm an ordinary person and i just get beamed by a light from a a ufo and maybe

an alien's yo-yo falls on my head and i'm filled with all this powers and superhuman indestructible body but it's all just in my shoulder the rest of me is just normal but my right shoulder is indestructible and for the special powers you know invisibility and that'd be a bit pointless though wouldn't it you couldn't do that might have much fun if the only part you do is invisible is your right shoulder no so there's dilution there's there's i guess imagery in the sense of imagining what it feels like to have

that part i was going to say euthanized that's not the right word is it injected with something to make it feel relaxed and numb numination is that that's what it's called they call it numination at the dentist a nummin a nummifier and then of course distraction this all of these things can be similarly intermingled in a way where you just like it doesn't really matter anymore the it's it's kind of i think with if you think of pain painful area like a volcano and you know all that hot lava and

it is it's very painful and everything but actually that hot lava cools down and that lava becomes the most fertile place pretty much on the planet it's like everything can grow a whole country can be created from a volcano new life trees everything can it's such a fertile foil fertile foil fertile soil so maybe that little miniature volcano that it might have felt like before now that it's cooled down can start to grow healthiness be a place where you can appreciate those changes that have occurred effortlessly yet meaningfully so there's

lots of different ways lots of different things you can do but i'm just going to ask you to choose what's right for you and allow that to happen now if it's not already done you can do it now allow those change to those changes to really really occur now and that sound of the creaky chair just lets you know that we're moving towards the end of this very boring session allowing yourself a few minutes to continue to make those changes necessary for your own physical and emotional comfort and i'm going

to be quiet for a couple of minutes other than maybe the odd squeak on the chair and i'll be drinking a bit of my drink so you might hear me gulping although i don't really gulp i mean this is me drinking i think it sounds too bad and i'm just going to keep quiet for a couple of minutes it might be a minute it might be a minute and a half i'm not really sure how long it's going to be and now in case you thought that it was me in

the kitchen it's actually Andre doing something i'm not quite sure what i just wanted to let you know it wasn't me going off to make myself some dinner because i mentioned that i'd be a little bit rude possibly so that kind of brings this to a lovely lovely wonderful end i'm going to thank the part Merlin thank you for spending time with me i'm going to move back to you again move back to the person listening to this audio and just ask you to go back to that chart and see what number it's gone down to that part of you and i'm gonna go thank you for listening for watching and i'll see you next time bye
