00:00:00.760 --> 00:00:10.480
Hello, and welcome to Jasonnewland dot com. My name's Jason Newland,

2
00:00:11.720 --> 00:00:17.760
and please only listen when you can safely close your eyes.

3
00:00:20.199 --> 00:00:31.559
Close your eyes. Yeah, oh and what else? So this

4
00:00:31.879 --> 00:00:42.000
is trivia Tuesday? Oh yes, yes, yes, yes, yes it is, yes,

5
00:00:42.280 --> 00:00:48.640
it is. So. Basically what I do on Trivia Tuesday

6
00:00:49.039 --> 00:00:55.759
is I think of a subject and then I ask

7
00:00:57.399 --> 00:01:05.400
chat GPT to do the research for me and come

8
00:01:05.519 --> 00:01:12.200
up with or ask for one hundred okay, or for

9
00:01:12.519 --> 00:01:18.959
I think twenty to thirty facts about a subject. And

10
00:01:19.200 --> 00:01:23.319
today I'm going to talk about hypnosis. I mean, I

11
00:01:23.480 --> 00:01:26.439
could probably do quite a few facts off the top

12
00:01:26.480 --> 00:01:31.400
of my head, but they might be wrong. The ones

13
00:01:31.439 --> 00:01:33.760
I give you may also be wrong, so I'm not

14
00:01:33.920 --> 00:01:41.239
you know, I take no responsibility for anything that is incorrect. However,

15
00:01:43.719 --> 00:01:50.000
I thought it would make it a mildly interesting, boring recording. Yes,

16
00:01:52.120 --> 00:01:59.079
the thing is, I'm using the chat GPT Advanced Reasoning

17
00:02:00.200 --> 00:02:06.200
and it's taken a wow. If probably would have done

18
00:02:06.239 --> 00:02:08.159
it by now if I just used a normal chat

19
00:02:08.240 --> 00:02:12.960
GBT four. But I wanted to get I wanted to

20
00:02:12.960 --> 00:02:16.439
go a little bit more in depth. If you know

21
00:02:16.439 --> 00:02:19.080
what I mean, If you know what I mean it.

22
00:02:20.319 --> 00:02:26.599
So today is Tuesday, the twenty seventh of May twenty

23
00:02:26.680 --> 00:02:33.159
twenty five. Vinnie's in the background, trumping on a bony thing.

24
00:02:35.479 --> 00:02:38.639
Been no windy today. You might actually hear the wind

25
00:02:38.680 --> 00:02:40.800
in the background, because I do have the window open.

26
00:02:42.240 --> 00:02:44.840
I was listening back to a recording from yesterday, and

27
00:02:45.039 --> 00:02:48.719
I could hear the birds. We'll just let you know

28
00:02:48.759 --> 00:02:53.840
how loud the birds are, because the microphone doesn't generally

29
00:02:53.919 --> 00:02:57.039
pick up much in the way of the birds singing.

30
00:02:58.080 --> 00:02:59.759
But it's that time of the year when they're all

31
00:02:59.800 --> 00:03:05.280
out and having fun, which is good. Well, I know

32
00:03:05.360 --> 00:03:07.560
they might be not having fun. They might be rehearsing

33
00:03:08.479 --> 00:03:11.800
for an upcoming stage show, and they might actually not

34
00:03:11.879 --> 00:03:13.879
be enjoying it at all. Might have had enough. I

35
00:03:14.000 --> 00:03:15.919
just want to go to the pub. I don't know.

36
00:03:17.599 --> 00:03:21.879
It's been raining as well. But luckily, even though it's

37
00:03:21.919 --> 00:03:24.240
been raining on and off all day, I've managed to

38
00:03:24.240 --> 00:03:27.960
miss the rain. So I've took Vinnie out twice and

39
00:03:28.000 --> 00:03:32.400
I haven't I haven't got wet. Had a little bit

40
00:03:32.439 --> 00:03:37.319
of a little few specs on the specs, but other

41
00:03:37.400 --> 00:03:45.319
than that, no, that's been all right. Did I actually

42
00:03:45.439 --> 00:03:50.439
start the day off by doing a new recording, which

43
00:03:50.479 --> 00:03:54.599
I don't normally do. I don't normally do a recording

44
00:03:54.680 --> 00:03:58.960
first three in the morning, but for some reason I

45
00:03:59.080 --> 00:04:05.000
had the the little urge, And what I did is

46
00:04:05.759 --> 00:04:10.479
I did and let Me Boil Your Pain Away called

47
00:04:11.039 --> 00:04:14.879
Pleasant Memories, and it was let Me Boil Your Pain

48
00:04:14.879 --> 00:04:22.240
Away number thirty five. So yeah, I just did that

49
00:04:22.399 --> 00:04:25.839
for those that would like to watch it or listen

50
00:04:25.879 --> 00:04:31.319
to it. Rather yesterday I did two recordings as well.

51
00:04:32.879 --> 00:04:35.800
Yeah I did. I did a body scan and I

52
00:04:35.839 --> 00:04:43.240
also did Monday's Boiling Objects dog Walking, So yeah, today's

53
00:04:43.639 --> 00:04:51.199
going to be two recordings. Also, it's six thirty seven PM,

54
00:04:51.279 --> 00:04:54.600
so I don't know if I'm gonna have a chance

55
00:04:54.720 --> 00:04:59.160
to upload or edit and upload this. I might do

56
00:05:00.759 --> 00:05:04.920
because I don't. I don't really watch much TV in

57
00:05:04.959 --> 00:05:08.759
the evening, not really, I don't, you know. I'm not

58
00:05:08.800 --> 00:05:15.879
really that routine that I used to have. I want

59
00:05:15.920 --> 00:05:19.120
to talk about TV now, so we talk about TV

60
00:05:19.199 --> 00:05:22.720
instead of hypnosis. Hypnosis is boring. Let's talk about televisions.

61
00:05:23.439 --> 00:05:26.240
Oh no, it's it's done. All this work. It seemed

62
00:05:26.240 --> 00:05:31.480
a shame not to go along with it. Televisions I've had,

63
00:05:32.079 --> 00:05:35.800
In fact, that could be a future boring objects recording.

64
00:05:37.560 --> 00:05:40.959
I can hear people no talk about the television. It

65
00:05:41.040 --> 00:05:47.399
doesn't want to listen about hypnoisish stop not allowed. No,

66
00:05:49.399 --> 00:05:58.879
So yeah I did that. Yeah. I don't have my

67
00:05:59.120 --> 00:06:02.639
whole not my whole life. But you know, when I

68
00:06:02.680 --> 00:06:07.600
was younger, most things happened back then. When I was younger,

69
00:06:07.759 --> 00:06:15.519
I I had like an evening protocol. Yeah, I'd get

70
00:06:15.519 --> 00:06:19.199
home from work depending on what time I got home

71
00:06:19.240 --> 00:06:22.160
from work, depending on what I watched on TV. But

72
00:06:22.199 --> 00:06:26.040
my whole evening would be based around watching TV. So

73
00:06:26.079 --> 00:06:31.680
if I got home at six o'clock, I would possibly

74
00:06:31.680 --> 00:06:38.160
watch the News, maybe i'd watch Home and Away. If

75
00:06:38.160 --> 00:06:42.040
I got home at five point thirty, I'd watch The Neighbors,

76
00:06:42.160 --> 00:06:47.279
then Home and Away, and then maybe Hollyoaks. I think

77
00:06:47.360 --> 00:06:50.000
it's in my memory that was kind of the order

78
00:06:50.040 --> 00:06:58.720
of the different programs, and then perhaps i'd watch Sometimes

79
00:06:58.720 --> 00:07:02.600
I would watch the four News at seven, and then

80
00:07:02.600 --> 00:07:07.199
it's seven point thirty, I'd watch the EastEnders, and then

81
00:07:08.600 --> 00:07:11.720
depending on what time of the of my life it was,

82
00:07:12.399 --> 00:07:14.199
it was a period and I'd watched the Bill at

83
00:07:14.199 --> 00:07:19.519
eight o'clock, and there was a period of time when

84
00:07:19.519 --> 00:07:23.600
I'd watch Family guy at nine o'clock every night, So

85
00:07:23.720 --> 00:07:27.399
that happened for a few years. That's when I moved here.

86
00:07:32.800 --> 00:07:37.319
But for some reason, I just haven't.

87
00:07:37.920 --> 00:07:38.279
I just.

88
00:07:39.920 --> 00:07:41.879
You know, I mean, if I do like to check

89
00:07:41.920 --> 00:07:45.279
the news just to see what's going on, generally I

90
00:07:45.360 --> 00:07:51.639
don't get like hugely involved, just to see what's going on.

91
00:07:51.839 --> 00:07:58.480
And I like, you know, if let's say I'm meeting

92
00:07:58.600 --> 00:08:02.839
mid dinner, I'd stick the TV on and I'll look

93
00:08:02.920 --> 00:08:05.560
through the channels to see if there's any old shows on,

94
00:08:06.240 --> 00:08:10.199
like what Happened to The Likely Lads or the Kenny

95
00:08:10.199 --> 00:08:14.000
Everige Show, or something from like the seventies and eighties,

96
00:08:14.160 --> 00:08:22.360
just a bit of light relief. And if there's nothing on,

97
00:08:22.439 --> 00:08:26.920
I'll probably go to YouTube and just have a look

98
00:08:26.959 --> 00:08:29.199
at some of the channels I watch on YouTube, just

99
00:08:29.199 --> 00:08:32.320
to see what's going on there. I mean, sometimes I'll

100
00:08:32.320 --> 00:08:34.679
actually just go on YouTube to get the news anyway.

101
00:08:36.840 --> 00:08:44.039
It all depends really. According to my website, I've got

102
00:08:44.320 --> 00:08:51.600
six thousand episodes, six thousand recordings that you can listen to,

103
00:08:52.639 --> 00:08:59.200
although I'd pretty sure that probably includes the ten hour

104
00:08:59.240 --> 00:09:02.759
ones and the five that ones, you know, so, but

105
00:09:03.080 --> 00:09:09.120
six thousand it's quite a lot isn't it. I'm just

106
00:09:09.120 --> 00:09:15.399
going to have a quick look. What's the statistics? MS.

107
00:09:15.399 --> 00:09:20.840
All right, it's been a quiet day. I worked a

108
00:09:20.879 --> 00:09:25.480
little bit on the back end doing some of the

109
00:09:25.639 --> 00:09:34.440
se O, which is a search engine optimization stuff, you know,

110
00:09:34.799 --> 00:09:41.799
getting some stuff transcribed and all that stuff. But it's yeah,

111
00:09:41.799 --> 00:09:51.720
it's all right, it's okay. Spose spose. Nope, that's not

112
00:09:51.919 --> 00:10:02.039
on the council that reset cancel. I wonder if the

113
00:10:02.039 --> 00:10:09.639
the subscription transcription page. That's weird. Sorry, I'm just talking

114
00:10:09.639 --> 00:10:18.000
out loud. There's a new video software cards what's it

115
00:10:18.039 --> 00:10:23.679
called PO three LEO THREELEO three LEO three CO three

116
00:10:23.840 --> 00:10:29.080
to three stuff like that, and it can make really

117
00:10:29.200 --> 00:10:33.919
amazing quality videos, short videos, but really good quality in

118
00:10:33.960 --> 00:10:38.159
a very short period of time. Something that would have

119
00:10:38.200 --> 00:10:43.360
took hours and hours a couple of years ago just

120
00:10:43.399 --> 00:10:44.960
to wait for it to come through and it still

121
00:10:45.000 --> 00:10:50.240
wouldn't be that good quality is now available in seconds,

122
00:10:51.720 --> 00:10:55.919
which means based on that, probably in a couple of years,

123
00:10:56.840 --> 00:11:00.000
probably be able to put a movie together just by

124
00:11:00.679 --> 00:11:04.440
putting in a correct prompt and have been like an

125
00:11:04.440 --> 00:11:09.080
hour to probably have a whole movie, which is I mean,

126
00:11:09.080 --> 00:11:11.840
it might be involved putting in the whole script, you know.

127
00:11:11.960 --> 00:11:18.200
But it's quite amazing because I do sometimes think after

128
00:11:18.240 --> 00:11:21.639
I've watched a movie, I sometimes think to myself, I

129
00:11:21.720 --> 00:11:26.200
need a wee wi. But that's not really relevant talking

130
00:11:26.200 --> 00:11:29.879
about it. I sometimes think to myself, I would have

131
00:11:29.919 --> 00:11:32.559
preferred for it to be different. I would have kept

132
00:11:32.559 --> 00:11:35.039
that character in, maybe got rid of the other character,

133
00:11:35.440 --> 00:11:41.960
maybe had them do something different. And almost like I

134
00:11:41.960 --> 00:11:46.120
could have made that movie a bit better for me,

135
00:11:46.480 --> 00:11:51.080
not for the overall audience, but I might have enjoyed

136
00:11:51.120 --> 00:11:58.360
it more if something else had happened. But then, I'm

137
00:11:58.360 --> 00:12:03.320
not a director. I'm not a movie director. And sometimes

138
00:12:03.320 --> 00:12:06.200
I see these movies and I think, well, they get

139
00:12:06.200 --> 00:12:11.879
bad ratings. But sometimes and I'm just thinking, but the

140
00:12:11.919 --> 00:12:17.320
actors and the producers and the directors and the costume

141
00:12:17.440 --> 00:12:23.559
designers and the writers, you know, all the people involved,

142
00:12:23.720 --> 00:12:27.759
sometimes thousands of people, but at least quite a few

143
00:12:27.799 --> 00:12:35.159
people involved in making putting a movie together. I think

144
00:12:35.200 --> 00:12:41.200
it's good or think it's worthwhile. So on that basis,

145
00:12:41.559 --> 00:12:43.960
I sometimes think to myself, well, it's worth giving it

146
00:12:44.000 --> 00:12:46.639
a go to walk to watch it, because a lot

147
00:12:46.679 --> 00:12:50.399
of efforts been put in for this for it just

148
00:12:50.440 --> 00:12:57.080
to be dismissed. Yeah, I've got someone phone in me.

149
00:12:57.360 --> 00:13:06.039
Luckily my phone is on mute. Oh dear, I don't

150
00:13:06.080 --> 00:13:08.840
know why I used to love talking on the phone.

151
00:13:10.000 --> 00:13:12.399
I don't like it anymore. I don't not, I don't

152
00:13:12.480 --> 00:13:15.720
like it all the time. Depends who is, but I

153
00:13:15.799 --> 00:13:19.080
just can't. I don't answer the phone if I'm doing

154
00:13:19.080 --> 00:13:25.159
a recording anyway, unless it's like an important vocal, you know.

155
00:13:25.480 --> 00:13:29.679
I mean, if my if my dad wrong, I'd answer it,

156
00:13:31.759 --> 00:13:35.120
or my brother. But outside of that, I wouldn't. Generally,

157
00:13:39.840 --> 00:13:43.759
was I talking about something I can't remember? So here

158
00:13:43.799 --> 00:13:52.200
we go, hypnosist. How many facts have I got? How

159
00:13:52.200 --> 00:13:58.240
many trivia facts? Oh? Did give me a hundred? Okay? Cool?

160
00:13:59.360 --> 00:14:05.960
So I might be able to expand on more on

161
00:14:06.080 --> 00:14:11.519
it from my own knowledge, but maybe not. I might

162
00:14:11.600 --> 00:14:20.159
just give you the fact. So hypnosis is a nineteenth

163
00:14:20.279 --> 00:14:31.080
century word. Scottish surgeon James Braid coined hypnotism the word

164
00:14:31.159 --> 00:14:38.120
hypnotism in eighteen forty one after watching Mesmerists and deciding

165
00:14:38.720 --> 00:14:48.039
the state resembled sleep and sleeping Greek is hypnos but

166
00:14:48.200 --> 00:14:52.679
was actually focused attention. So resembles sleep but was actually

167
00:14:52.720 --> 00:14:56.399
focused attention. So he came up with the word hypnotism.

168
00:14:59.279 --> 00:15:04.360
He tried. He tried to change the word twice, apparently

169
00:15:04.360 --> 00:15:07.240
because it didn't like the word hypnotism or hypnosis. Didn't

170
00:15:07.320 --> 00:15:09.840
like it, even though he kind of created it or

171
00:15:09.879 --> 00:15:14.679
coined it, made it popular, and he tried to change it,

172
00:15:14.720 --> 00:15:16.799
but no one was eminent. Nope, we like that word.

173
00:15:16.960 --> 00:15:22.720
We're going to keep it now. Mesmerists. You may have

174
00:15:22.759 --> 00:15:27.759
heard of the word mesmerism. It was it's named after

175
00:15:27.919 --> 00:15:38.799
France France Anton Mesmer, who treated patients with animal magnetism.

176
00:15:39.200 --> 00:15:43.720
So in the late seventeen hundreds, what he did is

177
00:15:43.759 --> 00:15:51.519
he passed magnets over people's bodies, sparking Europe's first medical

178
00:15:51.960 --> 00:16:03.639
hypnosis craze and given English the term mesmerize. So what

179
00:16:03.840 --> 00:16:11.080
happened to him is he became very famous and was

180
00:16:11.120 --> 00:16:15.799
loved by the royal family. I think he was French

181
00:16:17.399 --> 00:16:19.759
and he was loved by the French royal family and

182
00:16:24.279 --> 00:16:32.279
some experts. When you when you bear in mind doctors

183
00:16:32.679 --> 00:16:39.120
in the late seventeen hundreds, the average person probably knows

184
00:16:39.240 --> 00:16:47.080
more about the body potentially and science than doctors did

185
00:16:47.159 --> 00:16:52.519
back then, just you know, because of the knowledge we've got,

186
00:16:52.600 --> 00:16:55.840
I mean, they didn't. They were still blood letting people.

187
00:16:58.159 --> 00:17:00.559
It's like that's what was still going on back then.

188
00:17:02.000 --> 00:17:08.400
And what he did is he started this is something, Oh,

189
00:17:09.039 --> 00:17:12.400
I've got a memory of something I read. How it

190
00:17:12.519 --> 00:17:16.720
worked is he was doing the magnets and he put

191
00:17:17.160 --> 00:17:20.440
he was blood letting someone, and he put the magnets

192
00:17:20.559 --> 00:17:22.920
over where the blood was coming out, and the blood

193
00:17:22.960 --> 00:17:31.599
the bleeding stopped, and he thought, oh, and then he

194
00:17:31.799 --> 00:17:35.480
started doing that and he used sticks, and I think

195
00:17:35.559 --> 00:17:38.279
there was he do lots of people at the same time,

196
00:17:38.799 --> 00:17:43.359
so to have them all holding on to big metal

197
00:17:44.440 --> 00:17:49.400
rods and stuff. So yeah, it's but he was very popular,

198
00:17:51.079 --> 00:17:56.799
and then he was challenged like prove it because he

199
00:17:56.880 --> 00:18:00.839
started talking about it was the animal magnetism in the person,

200
00:18:04.119 --> 00:18:09.559
and the doctors or the surgeons at the time didn't agree.

201
00:18:10.759 --> 00:18:13.880
So he invited them, I've got one just find out

202
00:18:13.880 --> 00:18:17.799
for yourself, just you know, do some research. I welcome

203
00:18:17.880 --> 00:18:25.480
you to do it. And some notable people, including America's

204
00:18:25.519 --> 00:18:33.000
Benjamin Franklin, came along and they pretty much poo pooed

205
00:18:33.119 --> 00:18:36.599
what he was doing, and they said it was just suggestion,

206
00:18:40.079 --> 00:18:45.200
which kind of you know, is still pretty much agreed.

207
00:18:45.319 --> 00:18:49.480
Is a suggestion as far as kind of it is

208
00:18:49.759 --> 00:18:57.279
in a way. And then Franz Anton Mesmer left the country,

209
00:18:57.319 --> 00:19:01.079
I do believe, and just had his own had his

210
00:19:01.119 --> 00:19:05.960
own following elsewhere. I think he also liked eating ice cream,

211
00:19:06.119 --> 00:19:13.920
but I'm not sure about that. Abe Farrier imported Oriental

212
00:19:14.000 --> 00:19:22.240
hypnosis to Paris. This is eighteen thirteen. The Indo Portuguese

213
00:19:22.480 --> 00:19:29.119
priest demonstrated trance without magnets in eighteen thirteen, arguing that

214
00:19:29.200 --> 00:19:38.960
it was all in the subject's mind. Okay. And James Esdale,

215
00:19:39.720 --> 00:19:46.039
James Esdale was very famous in the hypnosis world because

216
00:19:46.720 --> 00:19:48.599
and this is something I used to have his book

217
00:19:48.640 --> 00:19:57.000
actually he performed is saying dozens, but hundreds is the actual.

218
00:19:58.960 --> 00:20:03.119
According to his book, he performed one hundreds of surgeries

219
00:20:03.799 --> 00:20:13.160
in colonial India using only mesmerism, which was like doing

220
00:20:13.440 --> 00:20:22.000
using hypnosis. So this is eighteen forty five to eighteen fifty.

221
00:20:22.759 --> 00:20:27.480
It listed major operations including all kinds of stuff, and

222
00:20:27.519 --> 00:20:34.960
it didn't have any kind of pain relief at their disposal.

223
00:20:37.000 --> 00:20:39.079
So he came back, he wrote a book about it,

224
00:20:39.160 --> 00:20:43.759
and he's yeah, he's down as being a really big

225
00:20:44.920 --> 00:20:48.039
especially when it comes to that pain relief. A big

226
00:20:48.119 --> 00:20:50.759
person in that no one had ever done that before,

227
00:20:51.880 --> 00:20:55.319
or at least he was the first person to become

228
00:20:55.319 --> 00:21:03.519
famous for it. Jon Martin Charco, So I find this

229
00:21:03.640 --> 00:21:12.480
interesting turned hypnosis into a part Parisian spectacle. He weakly

230
00:21:12.559 --> 00:21:16.559
demonstrated at the Salpetriere. I'm not sure if I'm pronouncing

231
00:21:16.559 --> 00:21:21.200
that right in eighteen eighties packed galleries with doctors, artists

232
00:21:21.279 --> 00:21:34.000
and writers cementing hypnosis inside early neurology. So he was big.

233
00:21:34.160 --> 00:21:35.720
I think he had a book as well. I think

234
00:21:35.720 --> 00:21:39.160
I used to have that, and so he was a

235
00:21:40.799 --> 00:21:47.720
What kind of surgeon was he? I forget so the British,

236
00:21:48.559 --> 00:21:53.400
but that was in France. The British Medical Association backed

237
00:21:53.440 --> 00:22:00.279
hypnosis in nineteen fifty five and it's called trance, a

238
00:22:00.519 --> 00:22:11.960
genuine phenomenon useful for pain, neurosis and obstetrics whatever. That is,

239
00:22:12.359 --> 00:22:16.799
recommending every medical student learned the basics, which they didn't

240
00:22:16.880 --> 00:22:20.599
and they still don't as far as I'm aware. And

241
00:22:21.319 --> 00:22:31.079
according to books I've read and information from doctors and

242
00:22:31.119 --> 00:22:35.519
all that stuff. During the training to become a doctor,

243
00:22:37.559 --> 00:22:43.519
they may get like one day of focusing on chronic

244
00:22:43.559 --> 00:22:47.240
pain or focusing on pain. I don't know how true,

245
00:22:47.240 --> 00:22:52.519
that is, it might have changed, But you'd think considering

246
00:22:53.599 --> 00:22:57.680
most of medicine, most of the reasons people go to

247
00:22:57.839 --> 00:23:04.359
doctors is because of pain, you'd think that that would

248
00:23:04.359 --> 00:23:10.000
be something that would be studied a bit more. But

249
00:23:11.400 --> 00:23:13.480
you know, I'm not a doctor, so I don't know

250
00:23:13.640 --> 00:23:19.119
if it's true or not. The British Medical Association, so

251
00:23:19.200 --> 00:23:23.480
why is it repeating itself? Oh no, I'm repeating myself.

252
00:23:24.720 --> 00:23:29.440
The Americal The American Medical Association followed. In nineteen fifty eight,

253
00:23:30.000 --> 00:23:36.440
the AMA Council Review labeled hypnosis a legitimate therapeutic tool

254
00:23:36.519 --> 00:23:40.720
and urged more research. Now, I think in America you

255
00:23:40.880 --> 00:23:44.640
have to be part of an organization in order to

256
00:23:45.160 --> 00:23:50.279
have a license in order to practice hypnosis and hypnotherapy.

257
00:23:51.000 --> 00:23:57.519
In the UK you don't. It's not controlled in the UK,

258
00:23:58.519 --> 00:24:04.680
and stage shows in Britain do require a license under

259
00:24:04.720 --> 00:24:09.240
the Hypnotism Act of nineteen fifty two. So the law

260
00:24:09.319 --> 00:24:15.359
arose after sensational stunts raised safety worries, and local councils

261
00:24:15.400 --> 00:24:20.160
still enforce it today. But you can practice as a hypnotherapist,

262
00:24:21.200 --> 00:24:29.119
but you can't do a live hypnosis Act without getting

263
00:24:29.119 --> 00:24:33.240
a license to do it, so you have to get permission.

264
00:24:34.759 --> 00:24:37.440
I think they're a little bit more open to it

265
00:24:37.519 --> 00:24:43.279
these days, but for a while it's quite difficult. So

266
00:24:43.359 --> 00:24:46.880
let's have a look. Milton Ericson. My mate, Milton Ericson

267
00:24:47.559 --> 00:24:56.880
revolutionized indirect hypnosis. So he was from Arizona. He wasn't

268
00:24:56.920 --> 00:25:01.400
from Arizona, but he lived in Arizona. Phoenix, Phoenix, Arizona,

269
00:25:04.720 --> 00:25:07.839
but he ended up living there. So the Arizona psychiatrist

270
00:25:08.160 --> 00:25:17.319
used storytelling, metaphas, and permissive language techniques now copied in therapy, coaching,

271
00:25:17.359 --> 00:25:24.960
and advertising. A huge, huge had a huge effect on

272
00:25:25.759 --> 00:25:29.599
hypnosis and the way it was taught and the way

273
00:25:29.640 --> 00:25:34.240
it was used. I've got probably about ten fifteen books

274
00:25:34.240 --> 00:25:41.400
on the man, some written by him, some written about him.

275
00:25:41.599 --> 00:25:44.519
The weird thing about with Milton Erickson is that I'm

276
00:25:44.559 --> 00:25:46.279
just going to add my own little bit of information

277
00:25:46.440 --> 00:25:49.160
I know about. He had polio as a child. He

278
00:25:49.200 --> 00:25:53.079
had again when he was in his fifties, I think,

279
00:25:53.880 --> 00:25:55.720
so he ended up in a wheelchair. But when he

280
00:25:55.759 --> 00:25:58.200
was a child he had it and he was bedridden,

281
00:25:58.799 --> 00:26:05.640
couldn't walk, couldn't do anything, and he couldn't talk or anything.

282
00:26:05.880 --> 00:26:09.680
He completely was pretty much wasn't able to do very

283
00:26:09.720 --> 00:26:14.480
much for quite a while, and he gained very good

284
00:26:17.640 --> 00:26:21.440
He found he studied the ways people were because he

285
00:26:21.480 --> 00:26:23.759
had a big family. He studied the way that people

286
00:26:23.880 --> 00:26:27.880
in his family were interacting and communicating, and how often

287
00:26:27.880 --> 00:26:31.279
they'd say one thing that would mean another thing, you

288
00:26:31.319 --> 00:26:34.000
know that, or how some of his brothers and sisters

289
00:26:34.000 --> 00:26:38.640
would lie or you know, and he studied that and

290
00:26:38.680 --> 00:26:43.599
he realized that the unconscious communication is often different from

291
00:26:43.720 --> 00:26:51.519
the verbal communication. You know, there's incongruments. And he also

292
00:26:51.720 --> 00:26:54.960
found ways to get people to do things for him

293
00:26:55.640 --> 00:27:04.039
without talking. And he noticed also how people matched each other,

294
00:27:04.279 --> 00:27:07.279
like rapport when you know, when people getting on really well,

295
00:27:07.279 --> 00:27:10.599
and maybe they moved their right hand, the other person

296
00:27:10.640 --> 00:27:13.759
maybe moved moved their right hand. And when one was

297
00:27:13.839 --> 00:27:16.720
nodding yes, the other one might be noding yes. And

298
00:27:16.920 --> 00:27:19.920
whenever one one started tap dancing, the other one started

299
00:27:20.000 --> 00:27:22.480
tap dancing. You know, things like that one fired the

300
00:27:22.519 --> 00:27:25.599
other one fired. That was his parents. But you know,

301
00:27:25.640 --> 00:27:29.599
he just noticed those things and then he became a doctor.

302
00:27:30.160 --> 00:27:37.119
He actually what happened is he he recovered and then

303
00:27:37.400 --> 00:27:42.079
he he became a doctor, and he became and he

304
00:27:42.160 --> 00:27:45.759
had but he had pain all his life due to

305
00:27:45.960 --> 00:27:48.960
the podio. So he found a way to deal with

306
00:27:49.000 --> 00:27:55.720
the pain using hypnosis. And then he you know, he

307
00:27:55.759 --> 00:28:00.039
was a doctor, became a psychiatrist, started using hypnosis with

308
00:28:00.400 --> 00:28:06.400
psychiatric patients before he was even allowed to you know,

309
00:28:06.519 --> 00:28:09.119
that was before it was even kind of accepted to

310
00:28:09.200 --> 00:28:13.559
do that because it would probably be in the I

311
00:28:13.599 --> 00:28:20.359
think he did stuff with he helped people with if

312
00:28:20.400 --> 00:28:26.799
I remember rightly, during the war, they used to call

313
00:28:26.839 --> 00:28:31.000
it shell shock. Now it'd be called PTSD, the shell shock.

314
00:28:31.079 --> 00:28:35.079
Then it was there was another name for it, and

315
00:28:35.119 --> 00:28:40.480
now it's PTSD. And he used to help people with that,

316
00:28:40.759 --> 00:28:44.720
soldiers and you know, the army, Navy, et cetera. With that.

317
00:28:47.960 --> 00:28:51.559
I'm partly making up some of this, I think it's true.

318
00:28:52.240 --> 00:28:55.839
And then he went on to be he became a

319
00:28:55.880 --> 00:29:01.720
teacher and he became very famous. He had very bad

320
00:29:02.759 --> 00:29:05.400
I think asthma, so he needed to move to the

321
00:29:05.440 --> 00:29:09.599
desert because of the air. The air was better for him,

322
00:29:09.720 --> 00:29:13.759
and he was in a wheelchair for the last probably

323
00:29:15.079 --> 00:29:18.880
thirty years twenty five years of his life. Always used

324
00:29:18.920 --> 00:29:27.559
to wear purple, that was his favorite color, and constantly smiling.

325
00:29:29.319 --> 00:29:34.039
You know, he's there's actually a local neighbor who. I

326
00:29:34.039 --> 00:29:36.720
think he walks his dog, probably because I don't talk

327
00:29:36.759 --> 00:29:41.799
to people unless they have dogs with them. Generally, it

328
00:29:41.880 --> 00:29:44.519
looks like Milton Erickson. I said to him, you know,

329
00:29:44.680 --> 00:29:50.039
you look at some really famous He said, what George Clooney.

330
00:29:50.119 --> 00:29:54.079
I said no, and he walked off. But if he

331
00:29:54.119 --> 00:29:56.319
had stayed, I'd have said no Milton Erickson, who he

332
00:29:56.359 --> 00:30:00.319
wouldn't have known who Milton Erickson was. Probably he might done.

333
00:30:01.279 --> 00:30:03.079
I'm not the only person in the entire world that

334
00:30:03.160 --> 00:30:06.920
knows who Milton Erickson is. Now you know who he is,

335
00:30:06.519 --> 00:30:12.319
if he didn't already he is. He's kind of like

336
00:30:12.440 --> 00:30:17.319
the Bruce Lee of martial arts, the Bruce Lee or

337
00:30:17.359 --> 00:30:19.880
the Bruce Lee of hypnosis if you want to go So,

338
00:30:19.880 --> 00:30:22.240
if you go to martial arts, no matter what martial

339
00:30:22.319 --> 00:30:25.160
light you're in, Bruce Lee is kind of at the top.

340
00:30:25.359 --> 00:30:30.359
Even though he didn't do necessarily jiu jitsu and he

341
00:30:30.519 --> 00:30:34.359
wasn't judo, you know, but you get into martial arts,

342
00:30:34.400 --> 00:30:38.240
Bruce Lee, He's watch Bruce Lee movies. It's the standard thing.

343
00:30:39.799 --> 00:30:41.319
At least it used to be. I don't know if

344
00:30:41.359 --> 00:30:45.119
it's that case anymore. If you get into boxing, Muhammad

345
00:30:45.119 --> 00:30:50.400
Ahli is kind of there. He's the top. There's no

346
00:30:50.440 --> 00:30:55.119
one above Muhammad Ahi in the boxing world history, regardless

347
00:30:55.119 --> 00:30:57.400
of whether he was the best or not. He's the

348
00:30:57.400 --> 00:31:06.279
most famous boxer that's pretty much ever been. And with hypnosis,

349
00:31:07.440 --> 00:31:11.440
Milton Ericson or Milton hate Erickson is the most famous

350
00:31:11.880 --> 00:31:16.359
in hypnosis. In the same way, you could say from

351
00:31:17.200 --> 00:31:26.200
a psychology perspective, Sigmund Freud was the most famous psychologist

352
00:31:26.319 --> 00:31:31.920
or psychiatrist still even though he's been gone for he

353
00:31:32.039 --> 00:31:37.440
passed away in nineteen thirty nine, he's still you know,

354
00:31:37.519 --> 00:31:41.079
he's still the most famous and runners up would be

355
00:31:41.079 --> 00:31:46.240
probably young. And then you go to counseling, the most

356
00:31:46.279 --> 00:31:54.640
famous counselor Carl Rodgers. I mean, he almost invented counseling.

357
00:31:55.839 --> 00:31:58.240
So yeah, it's just so that's where Milton Erickson is.

358
00:31:58.680 --> 00:32:04.799
On my personal opinion. Other people may think, yeah, yeah,

359
00:32:05.119 --> 00:32:08.720
I like somebody else. Alec Roger is around the corner.

360
00:32:08.920 --> 00:32:13.039
He's much better than Milton, and it might be better than

361
00:32:13.200 --> 00:32:21.079
now and he but yeah, he's he was an absolute phenomena.

362
00:32:22.599 --> 00:32:25.400
I've got audios of him, and I've got yeah, his

363
00:32:25.640 --> 00:32:30.359
videos of him on YouTube. Unfortunately they're very old videos

364
00:32:30.519 --> 00:32:37.720
and they're very not good quality. Also, because he'd had

365
00:32:37.839 --> 00:32:40.519
the when he'd had the polio thing, and he was

366
00:32:40.519 --> 00:32:46.519
getting older, he couldn't speak particularly clearly in a way

367
00:32:46.559 --> 00:32:51.400
that he used to, so it's not always Perhaps it

368
00:32:51.440 --> 00:32:56.799
wouldn't be easy for to hear what he's saying, and

369
00:32:57.079 --> 00:32:58.599
I think it's easier if he was in the room

370
00:32:58.599 --> 00:33:00.640
with him, But on a video it does come across

371
00:33:00.720 --> 00:33:10.559
very well. So neurolinguistic program in NLP, which I did

372
00:33:10.599 --> 00:33:18.000
study in piggybacked on Ericsson's work. So co founder Richard

373
00:33:18.000 --> 00:33:23.640
Bandler taught rapid inductions that borrowed heavily from Ericsonian's pacing

374
00:33:23.880 --> 00:33:30.160
and language patterns. Yes yes, yes, yes, yes true and

375
00:33:31.119 --> 00:33:33.359
YEH can't argue on that one. There's no secret to that.

376
00:33:33.480 --> 00:33:40.839
So it wasn't just I mean NLP. They studied Fritz Pearls,

377
00:33:40.960 --> 00:33:49.880
they studied Milton Erickson, they studied who else did they

378
00:33:49.920 --> 00:33:59.160
study the family therapists I forget her name, Richard Loveder

379
00:33:59.559 --> 00:34:04.279
family therapist lady, And so they studied lots of different people,

380
00:34:04.799 --> 00:34:09.760
but neuro linguistic programming was very much and they also

381
00:34:09.880 --> 00:34:18.039
studied language as well. So yeah, so much of NLP

382
00:34:18.599 --> 00:34:22.400
is hypnosis, and if you look at some of the

383
00:34:22.440 --> 00:34:25.000
old books which I've got, I've got some and I've

384
00:34:25.039 --> 00:34:30.119
had lots. I'd like to get my library back, my

385
00:34:30.239 --> 00:34:33.960
hypnosis library back, because what I find amazing is you

386
00:34:34.000 --> 00:34:39.039
look back and you say, well, it looks like it's new,

387
00:34:39.400 --> 00:34:42.760
Like this is an NLP. It's only been around since

388
00:34:42.760 --> 00:34:45.360
the late seventies. I mean, it's a long time now,

389
00:34:45.360 --> 00:34:48.559
I suppose. But if you go back, that stuff was

390
00:34:48.559 --> 00:34:51.360
talked about in the nineteen twenties, of nineteen thirties and

391
00:34:51.440 --> 00:35:01.679
forties in hypnosis books, the idea of imagining something like

392
00:35:03.239 --> 00:35:06.960
on a screen and changing it, rewinding it and taking

393
00:35:06.960 --> 00:35:09.000
the color out, and things like that to change a

394
00:35:09.159 --> 00:35:14.800
memory or change your reaction to a memory. If this

395
00:35:14.880 --> 00:35:21.360
sounds like a lecture, sorry, it's trivia, baby, It's trivia.

396
00:35:21.719 --> 00:35:27.400
So it's weird because I kind of realized that I'm

397
00:35:27.559 --> 00:35:36.840
still interested in hypnosis. However, I don't want to do

398
00:35:37.000 --> 00:35:43.519
hypnosis in the traditional way. I want to I want

399
00:35:43.559 --> 00:35:47.159
to do my own thing. Hence the let me boil

400
00:35:47.199 --> 00:35:53.760
your pain away. I don't. I don't want to have

401
00:35:53.920 --> 00:36:00.440
that restriction that I felt with hypnosis and having it

402
00:36:00.800 --> 00:36:06.880
structured in that way. I quite like the freedom of

403
00:36:07.159 --> 00:36:12.119
going in and out of focusing on a subject and

404
00:36:12.159 --> 00:36:18.599
then talking about flip flops if I want to, or

405
00:36:18.679 --> 00:36:21.000
talking about all that's made me feel hungry, that us

406
00:36:21.519 --> 00:36:26.239
talking about that and just still being myself, but also

407
00:36:27.039 --> 00:36:35.559
having that focus and the suggestions. I don't think we

408
00:36:35.719 --> 00:36:43.119
need people need to have super super strong suggestions. In

409
00:36:43.159 --> 00:36:51.320
a sense of what Milton Erickson said is you try

410
00:36:51.360 --> 00:36:55.000
and get the client or the patient to wrap their

411
00:36:55.119 --> 00:37:01.440
mind around an idea, wrap your mind around an idea,

412
00:37:01.800 --> 00:37:04.880
and once that idea, especially if you go from lots

413
00:37:04.880 --> 00:37:12.000
of different angles, which I tend to do it it sticks,

414
00:37:12.199 --> 00:37:16.239
something will stick, something will change, and we're constantly changing,

415
00:37:16.360 --> 00:37:23.920
and you remember certain things. There might be something in

416
00:37:23.960 --> 00:37:28.039
this recording that you might remember which might actually be useful,

417
00:37:28.920 --> 00:37:32.239
even though it's just me talking about stuff that you

418
00:37:32.360 --> 00:37:39.039
might not find particularly invigorating or interesting, which in a

419
00:37:39.119 --> 00:37:42.159
sense you shouldn't be anyway, because it is a boring recording,

420
00:37:42.639 --> 00:37:48.320
you know, let me boil you or a sleep, But

421
00:37:48.360 --> 00:37:53.079
at the same time it might be useful other than

422
00:37:53.119 --> 00:37:56.880
to just send you off to no Land, notdy Land.

423
00:37:59.360 --> 00:38:02.360
So this is thing that you might have heard of before.

424
00:38:02.880 --> 00:38:09.920
Emily Cool's nineteen twenties, mantra became a self hypnosis staple.

425
00:38:11.639 --> 00:38:15.639
And I remember hearing this in Pink Panther movie and

426
00:38:15.679 --> 00:38:23.880
it was the Inspector Cluso's boss who just has had

427
00:38:24.000 --> 00:38:27.920
enough of Inspector Cluso. But I think it's the second

428
00:38:27.960 --> 00:38:31.159
movie and he's back doing this job and he's trying

429
00:38:31.159 --> 00:38:34.239
to keep calm, and I think he's looking in the

430
00:38:34.239 --> 00:38:37.480
mirror and just repeating every day, in every way, I'm

431
00:38:37.480 --> 00:38:41.880
getting better and better. That's the first time I ever

432
00:38:41.880 --> 00:38:45.599
heard that. So when I actually read those words and

433
00:38:45.679 --> 00:38:52.880
I think I've got Emily Ko's books, it made me

434
00:38:53.000 --> 00:38:55.880
laugh because I thought, Okay, it was hard to take

435
00:38:55.920 --> 00:38:59.159
it seriously because it was used in the comedy movie,

436
00:38:59.360 --> 00:39:04.039
so it was a it's basically auto suggestion, and he

437
00:39:04.079 --> 00:39:06.480
was the first person to kind of really have done that.

438
00:39:09.360 --> 00:39:15.039
Charles Dickens moonlighted as a mesmerist. Ooh, I didn't know this,

439
00:39:15.199 --> 00:39:19.039
so this might first have I heard of this. Novelists

440
00:39:19.280 --> 00:39:24.519
treated so the novelist Charles Dickins treated friends headaches with

441
00:39:24.639 --> 00:39:31.159
hypnosis and once hypnotized his wife during a US lecture

442
00:39:31.159 --> 00:39:36.079
Taur in eighteen forty two. Wow, I did not know that,

443
00:39:36.800 --> 00:39:40.039
but hey, the Master of Words, I guess it would

444
00:39:40.079 --> 00:39:48.559
be wow. I really didn't know. CIA Project mk Ultra

445
00:39:48.880 --> 00:39:54.760
experimented with hypnosis. So declassified files show nineteen fifties efforts

446
00:39:54.800 --> 00:40:00.400
to combine trance with drugs for interrogation and covert missions. Yeah,

447
00:40:00.440 --> 00:40:05.159
it's quite well known. They tried lots of different things, LSD,

448
00:40:05.440 --> 00:40:07.280
all kinds of things to try and get people to

449
00:40:07.320 --> 00:40:14.719
do stuff. Hypnotic testimony is usually barred from US courts,

450
00:40:15.440 --> 00:40:21.000
so since the nineteen eighties, most states exclude hypnotically refreshed

451
00:40:21.119 --> 00:40:28.440
memories as unreliable. I believed it was all because of

452
00:40:28.480 --> 00:40:33.639
the false memory issue. So I actually thought that it

453
00:40:33.679 --> 00:40:42.000
was never admissible or acceptable in any court of any country,

454
00:40:42.320 --> 00:40:49.400
to be fair, But maybe I'm wrong. The UK Hypnotic

455
00:40:49.519 --> 00:40:55.280
World Record Day happened online, so British hypnotist Chris Hughes

456
00:40:55.440 --> 00:40:59.960
drew over thirty thousand participants to a Facebook trance session

457
00:41:00.119 --> 00:41:06.840
on World Hypnotism Day two thy eleven. I was going

458
00:41:06.920 --> 00:41:11.599
to try and do the biggest stop smoking Hypnosis Day

459
00:41:11.639 --> 00:41:16.320
in two thousand and six, and I went to I

460
00:41:16.360 --> 00:41:22.559
did all the advertising for it, okay, and I went

461
00:41:22.599 --> 00:41:28.639
to rent out the hall which was where bands would

462
00:41:28.639 --> 00:41:35.679
play big old place and they wanted thours and of pounds,

463
00:41:36.159 --> 00:41:39.639
so I had to call the whole thing off. And

464
00:41:41.440 --> 00:41:48.400
a fastest induction record claims a seven second handshake. Trance

465
00:41:49.559 --> 00:41:56.119
speed hypnotist speed hypnosis specialist Jonathan Royle demonstrates the feet

466
00:41:56.360 --> 00:42:00.800
in a seminar videos. I did some aiming with Jonathan

467
00:42:00.920 --> 00:42:13.199
Miele in nineteen ninety ninety five. I think next one

468
00:42:13.280 --> 00:42:22.159
is Chevrolet's Chevrolets or chevels. Pendulum predates pocket watches. So

469
00:42:22.360 --> 00:42:31.079
chemist Michelle Eugene Chevrol eighteen thirty three showed small unconscious

470
00:42:31.599 --> 00:42:37.519
muscle twitches can swing a suspended weight. Still taught in

471
00:42:37.679 --> 00:42:43.119
hypnosis classes today. So it's a little bit different for

472
00:42:43.199 --> 00:42:48.599
you know, when people you know the old style, you know,

473
00:42:49.440 --> 00:42:53.199
she used the word trope where you swing the watch

474
00:42:53.239 --> 00:42:56.559
in front of someone's eyes and saying we'll focus.

475
00:42:56.199 --> 00:42:57.079
On the march.

476
00:42:57.360 --> 00:43:04.400
The march, ye know, fee is all that stuff. This

477
00:43:04.639 --> 00:43:11.039
was different. This was basically asking your you just speak

478
00:43:11.079 --> 00:43:14.000
directly to your unconscious mind. So you had this thing

479
00:43:14.719 --> 00:43:17.840
like a chain with a little weight. Perhaps you do

480
00:43:17.840 --> 00:43:21.760
it with a watch as well, on a chain, and

481
00:43:21.920 --> 00:43:25.960
just sometimes you'd have like a piece of paper on

482
00:43:28.440 --> 00:43:32.239
the desk with yes and no a little bit wee

483
00:43:32.280 --> 00:43:35.519
gee to be fair, but you know you're not asking

484
00:43:35.599 --> 00:43:40.480
the spirits, asking yourself questions. Or you could just say, well,

485
00:43:40.679 --> 00:43:44.519
just switch from side to side for yes and go

486
00:43:44.639 --> 00:43:48.320
round for no, and you can ask yourself questions. And

487
00:43:48.960 --> 00:43:59.039
because it's you're not purposefully moving the you're not making

488
00:43:59.039 --> 00:44:04.719
any movements on your own, it's micro movements. And the

489
00:44:04.760 --> 00:44:10.719
idea is you're asking yourself questions in a sense because

490
00:44:10.719 --> 00:44:12.519
you might be wondering what kind of questions would you

491
00:44:12.559 --> 00:44:17.519
ask yourself? Where do I leave the keys? No? Well maybe,

492
00:44:17.559 --> 00:44:24.800
but it's more, is it okay, I want to stop

493
00:44:24.920 --> 00:44:31.039
doing this particular behavior? Are you? Are you willing for

494
00:44:31.119 --> 00:44:34.880
me to stop this? So you could ask your unconscious

495
00:44:34.880 --> 00:44:38.920
mind so that you can be congruent. So your conscious mind,

496
00:44:39.000 --> 00:44:42.199
your unconscious mind, your whole body, your mind, your thoughts,

497
00:44:42.280 --> 00:44:46.320
your brain, whatever, can all be in sync with what

498
00:44:46.400 --> 00:44:51.920
you're wanting to do, and that can have a positive effect.

499
00:44:53.199 --> 00:44:55.119
There's other things that we've done for it as well,

500
00:44:56.119 --> 00:45:00.360
but that's that's a whole recording on its own. In fact,

501
00:45:00.400 --> 00:45:05.119
there's a whole book I've got Mind Body connection or whatever,

502
00:45:05.280 --> 00:45:07.559
and it's a huge book, and it's all about that,

503
00:45:09.840 --> 00:45:17.159
and you've got It's not just idiomotor responses, they call it.

504
00:45:17.159 --> 00:45:20.239
This is like moving your hand, moving a finger. Let

505
00:45:20.320 --> 00:45:23.119
the finger move if it's a yes, or it's a no,

506
00:45:24.119 --> 00:45:28.239
or you know, sometimes like raising your hand up. Just

507
00:45:28.519 --> 00:45:31.880
let your hand raise up on its own, but let

508
00:45:31.920 --> 00:45:36.559
your unconscious mind raise it up from your knee, for example,

509
00:45:36.960 --> 00:45:40.400
But don't do it consciously. Let your unconscious mind just

510
00:45:40.559 --> 00:45:44.639
let it and you talk to your unconscious mind, you know,

511
00:45:44.800 --> 00:45:47.639
let's say the other person. So just move in that

512
00:45:47.840 --> 00:45:52.599
hand up now, bit by bit slowly, but don't do

513
00:45:52.639 --> 00:45:55.719
it consciously, and the hand moves, and then you can

514
00:45:55.760 --> 00:45:57.960
do something like, well, what are you going to do

515
00:45:58.039 --> 00:46:01.119
is move it up to your face slowly, and when

516
00:46:01.159 --> 00:46:05.920
it touches your face you'll become completely relaxed. Or you're

517
00:46:05.920 --> 00:46:07.920
gonna let it drop, and when it drops down to

518
00:46:07.960 --> 00:46:12.960
your knee again, you'll feel amazing. And you know, stuff

519
00:46:13.000 --> 00:46:16.519
like that. It can be used for lots of different things.

520
00:46:17.199 --> 00:46:22.960
I fixation inductions at our cinema classics for a reason.

521
00:46:24.280 --> 00:46:31.039
Staring at a fixed point exploits our natural optic fatigue,

522
00:46:32.039 --> 00:46:38.519
and was popularized by a Victorian surgeons. Well, I can't

523
00:46:38.559 --> 00:46:45.000
remember who it was with. There was a story. Was

524
00:46:45.039 --> 00:46:54.000
it James Braid? There was I think it was a dentist.

525
00:46:54.039 --> 00:47:01.559
I forget who it was, but he left somebody. Yeah,

526
00:47:01.559 --> 00:47:03.800
he said, I just got to go go next door

527
00:47:04.000 --> 00:47:07.920
and left the person staring at the light and when

528
00:47:07.960 --> 00:47:11.559
he came back in, the patient was gone, like completely

529
00:47:11.639 --> 00:47:17.880
zooked out. And then he kind of experimented with it

530
00:47:17.920 --> 00:47:20.119
and got people to focus on a light or on

531
00:47:20.159 --> 00:47:22.840
a point on the wall and stuff like that. And

532
00:47:22.880 --> 00:47:31.599
that's where that kind of came from, Dear, dear, So

533
00:47:31.760 --> 00:47:37.559
that was the eye fixation. It's it causes natural fatigue

534
00:47:37.559 --> 00:47:42.159
of your eyes. It's you know, if you just like, okay,

535
00:47:42.440 --> 00:47:46.599
staring at a point on the wall, your eyelids will

536
00:47:46.639 --> 00:47:49.840
start to get heavy and you'll need to blink. We

537
00:47:49.920 --> 00:47:52.360
all need to blink. It's just natural, isn't it. But

538
00:47:52.400 --> 00:47:57.639
eventually the more you blink, the more you want to

539
00:47:57.679 --> 00:48:02.440
close your eyes. And I'm feeling that now actually, which

540
00:48:02.440 --> 00:48:04.559
you'll be getting away a little bit because I can't

541
00:48:04.599 --> 00:48:08.239
see through my eyelids. I can see the light through

542
00:48:08.280 --> 00:48:13.480
my eyelids. It's a different level of light because the

543
00:48:13.519 --> 00:48:16.039
eyelids were in a way, but I can't see the

544
00:48:16.079 --> 00:48:25.760
screen where all this juicy information is. But it's definitely

545
00:48:25.760 --> 00:48:29.559
a way too. And the weird thing about it is

546
00:48:30.639 --> 00:48:33.559
by saying to someone and as you stare at the wall,

547
00:48:34.079 --> 00:48:38.840
you'll notice your eyes are getting heavier. Now, that's just

548
00:48:38.920 --> 00:48:43.920
going to happen naturally, But it may seem like the

549
00:48:44.199 --> 00:48:50.679
hypnotist is almost creating that with their words, but actually,

550
00:48:52.400 --> 00:48:54.519
what else is going to happen. It's like saying someone,

551
00:48:54.800 --> 00:48:57.559
now I want you to run around the building ten

552
00:48:57.679 --> 00:49:01.360
times and a more. Every time you run around, you're

553
00:49:01.360 --> 00:49:03.960
going to get more and more tired. Like it's going

554
00:49:04.039 --> 00:49:14.039
to happen anyway, isn't it. But the Speegel eye roll

555
00:49:14.159 --> 00:49:19.599
test predicts trance depth in five seconds rolling the eyes

556
00:49:19.679 --> 00:49:25.840
upwards while closing lids correctly classified hypnotizability in about seventy

557
00:49:25.840 --> 00:49:33.960
four percent of two thousand psychotherapy tests. Places. Now there's

558
00:49:33.960 --> 00:49:40.280
a thing where you say, close your eyes and look up. Now,

559
00:49:40.360 --> 00:49:44.519
try and open your eyes. That it's actually impossible to

560
00:49:44.599 --> 00:49:47.119
open your eyes when you're looking up with your eyeballs.

561
00:49:48.400 --> 00:49:50.760
So by saying I'm going to ask you in a

562
00:49:50.760 --> 00:49:52.960
minute to try and close your eyes while you're looking

563
00:49:53.079 --> 00:49:57.119
up so your eyes closed. The longer they're closed, the

564
00:49:57.119 --> 00:50:00.079
more stuck they'll be. And you look up with your

565
00:50:00.119 --> 00:50:04.199
eyeballs inside your eyes. You're looking up. You've noticed that

566
00:50:04.280 --> 00:50:07.639
your eyelids are getting heavier and heavier, and you're going

567
00:50:07.719 --> 00:50:09.199
to try and open them in a minute. But you

568
00:50:09.360 --> 00:50:11.519
notice that the more you try, the harder it is

569
00:50:11.559 --> 00:50:14.199
to open them. Blah blah, all that stuff. But the

570
00:50:14.239 --> 00:50:19.039
fact is, if you're looking up, you can't open your

571
00:50:19.079 --> 00:50:23.840
eye lids. Why you're looking up, it's actually physically impossible. Ohy,

572
00:50:23.880 --> 00:50:30.000
given the secrets to air. Oh but part of that,

573
00:50:30.280 --> 00:50:34.280
I think it's worth remembering if someone you know, it's

574
00:50:34.320 --> 00:50:37.880
it's not so much manipulation a little bit, I suppose,

575
00:50:37.920 --> 00:50:43.599
But if someone comes to a hypnotist or hypnotherapist wanting

576
00:50:43.960 --> 00:50:51.440
help with something, then there's a degree of expectation that

577
00:50:51.440 --> 00:50:55.719
that person may ask them to close their eyes and

578
00:50:56.880 --> 00:51:00.599
do kind of a test to prove that hit nosis

579
00:51:00.599 --> 00:51:07.039
exists and they made the right decision by coming to

580
00:51:07.119 --> 00:51:12.239
that person. Maybe so it can be useful. Group testing

581
00:51:12.480 --> 00:51:18.239
is possible. Harvard proved so nineteen sixty two. Harvard group

582
00:51:18.360 --> 00:51:22.760
scale let research is rate dozens of volunteers all at

583
00:51:22.760 --> 00:51:30.400
once paving away for mass screening studies. I mean group

584
00:51:30.480 --> 00:51:37.639
testing is done at the beginning of a live hypnosis show,

585
00:51:38.280 --> 00:51:42.480
like a stage hypnosis show, where some of the things

586
00:51:42.519 --> 00:51:45.360
they do is to get peoples, for example, to put

587
00:51:45.440 --> 00:51:51.280
their hands together and do certain things and tell the

588
00:51:51.320 --> 00:51:53.519
people you won't be able to hold your hands will

589
00:51:53.519 --> 00:51:55.559
stay stuck together and you won't be able to pull

590
00:51:55.599 --> 00:52:01.079
them apart, And so everyone end up and do that,

591
00:52:01.760 --> 00:52:04.760
and those that can pull their hands apart sit down,

592
00:52:05.159 --> 00:52:07.800
so the remaining people standing up, they're getting to do

593
00:52:07.880 --> 00:52:11.639
something else until I done three or four, maybe five

594
00:52:11.679 --> 00:52:17.599
different things, and then you end up with perhaps I

595
00:52:17.599 --> 00:52:24.199
don't know, twenty five people or twenty people left, or

596
00:52:24.239 --> 00:52:28.719
four maybe I don't know, thirty people left. So they

597
00:52:28.760 --> 00:52:31.400
get those thirty people on stage and they do even

598
00:52:31.400 --> 00:52:33.960
more stuff, and eventually they win. They whitdle it down.

599
00:52:34.239 --> 00:52:38.719
So there's fifteen people are very very not just suggestible

600
00:52:38.800 --> 00:52:44.960
but also suggestible suggestible, but also willing, and they want

601
00:52:45.000 --> 00:52:46.840
to do it, and they want to enjoy themselves and

602
00:52:46.840 --> 00:52:49.559
they want to be part of the show. They don't

603
00:52:49.599 --> 00:52:54.400
want someone going up there who's trying to disprove it,

604
00:52:55.079 --> 00:52:58.920
that wants to cause problems. So that's why those shows

605
00:52:58.960 --> 00:53:02.800
are so much fun for the audience and for the

606
00:53:03.119 --> 00:53:06.519
participants as well. I guess I've never been to a

607
00:53:06.599 --> 00:53:12.840
show seen on TV. I kind of know the routine

608
00:53:12.960 --> 00:53:17.320
of how it's done, but that was like twenty years ago.

609
00:53:17.360 --> 00:53:19.639
I learned that and I've read it in books, but

610
00:53:19.760 --> 00:53:23.480
actually did a training course where they went through the whole,

611
00:53:23.880 --> 00:53:28.599
the whole thing on how to you know, do the

612
00:53:28.679 --> 00:53:32.519
training trained on how to actually do the whole show,

613
00:53:33.480 --> 00:53:40.519
which was interested so science and suggestibility a Stanford scale

614
00:53:40.800 --> 00:53:46.239
remains the gold standard six decades on.

615
00:53:48.239 --> 00:53:48.320
And.

616
00:53:50.239 --> 00:53:57.199
So recent tests have shown that basically the results they

617
00:53:57.239 --> 00:54:02.760
got six decades ago is still reliable. I did there

618
00:54:02.800 --> 00:54:08.440
was a book on this, and I didn't. I didn't

619
00:54:08.519 --> 00:54:14.719
like it very much. It was very Yeah, I don't know,

620
00:54:14.800 --> 00:54:20.360
I just it's kind of sometimes when they do tests

621
00:54:20.559 --> 00:54:27.400
testing people for their suggestibility is always a dog bucking almost.

622
00:54:27.599 --> 00:54:30.800
It seems a little bit like when they show a

623
00:54:30.840 --> 00:54:34.400
comedy show. They get do a comedy screening to people

624
00:54:34.480 --> 00:54:41.119
that don't seem to like humor or, you know, so

625
00:54:41.360 --> 00:54:47.480
this choose the audience a bit more wisely. Sometimes maybe

626
00:54:48.679 --> 00:54:55.679
genes meta According to this a comt polymorphism tracks with hypnotizability.

627
00:54:56.119 --> 00:55:00.519
I didn't understand half of those words vary. Instead influence

628
00:55:00.679 --> 00:55:06.719
dopamine in the prefuntal core cortex partly explains why some

629
00:55:06.800 --> 00:55:11.440
people go deeper than others. Okay, so that's the science.

630
00:55:12.480 --> 00:55:18.280
THEATA brain weighs rise in trance. EEG studies link hypnosis

631
00:55:18.320 --> 00:55:24.960
to increase theater and cheabump altered gamma patterns tied to focus,

632
00:55:25.039 --> 00:55:31.599
attention and imagery. So ultimately, the stuff's going on in

633
00:55:31.599 --> 00:55:36.320
the brain, isn't it. That's what I take from that

634
00:55:36.360 --> 00:55:45.039
as my scientific opinion. That's my doctoral prognosis. Functional MRI

635
00:55:45.400 --> 00:55:51.239
pinpoints of dorsal anterior circulate singulate. Wow, there's a lot

636
00:55:51.239 --> 00:55:56.199
of very big words here during hypnotic analgesia or it's

637
00:55:56.239 --> 00:55:59.840
something I'm interested in, this pain process in how quiets

638
00:56:00.599 --> 00:56:07.400
while censury areas keep working. So basically the danger signals

639
00:56:08.840 --> 00:56:14.840
become safe signals, because that's all. Basically, pain is a

640
00:56:14.920 --> 00:56:24.360
danger signal, and when it's no longer experienced, that is danger.

641
00:56:24.679 --> 00:56:31.519
But as being safe, there's no problem. There's the person

642
00:56:31.559 --> 00:56:36.519
will just be relaxed and not be bothered. Hypnosis can

643
00:56:36.599 --> 00:56:42.840
restructure neural connectivity, so reviews show changes in default mode

644
00:56:42.960 --> 00:56:50.199
and salience networks, hinting at neuroplastic benefits beyond placebo. Now,

645
00:56:50.760 --> 00:56:54.920
salience is a word that I haven't used before, so

646
00:56:54.960 --> 00:56:57.559
I'm going to look that up. I kind of know

647
00:56:57.679 --> 00:56:59.280
what it means, I think, but I'm going to look

648
00:56:59.320 --> 00:57:07.400
it up anyway, ask co pilots. Salient come On, explains

649
00:57:07.480 --> 00:57:13.079
the following text. In the context of hypnosis, salience refers

650
00:57:13.119 --> 00:57:17.400
to the brain's ability to prioritize certain stimuli over others,

651
00:57:18.440 --> 00:57:23.800
determining what stands out in a given moment. The surrounding

652
00:57:23.880 --> 00:57:30.119
page content discusses how hypnosis interacts with the brain's salience network,

653
00:57:31.079 --> 00:57:37.880
which is responsible for filtering information and focusing attention. Research

654
00:57:37.960 --> 00:57:43.840
suggests that hypnosis can restructure neural connectivity, influencing the default

655
00:57:43.880 --> 00:57:49.679
mode and salience networks. So yeah, I hope that made

656
00:57:49.719 --> 00:57:56.840
sense to someone. And I'm very interested in neuroplasticity because

657
00:57:57.039 --> 00:57:59.599
the idea, there was an idea, you know, years and

658
00:57:59.679 --> 00:58:03.079
years go. I remember when I was growing up, and

659
00:58:05.360 --> 00:58:07.719
you know, you're fixed. This is your brain, this is

660
00:58:07.719 --> 00:58:12.320
what it is. And you know you can't teach old

661
00:58:12.360 --> 00:58:19.079
dogs new tricks all those cliches when actually the brain

662
00:58:19.159 --> 00:58:26.159
isn't fixed, and our brains are changing. The chemistry is changing.

663
00:58:26.559 --> 00:58:31.079
The newer networks are changing all the time. They change.

664
00:58:31.320 --> 00:58:35.079
Mine are changing now today while I'm doing this, I'm

665
00:58:35.159 --> 00:58:40.400
learning new things. And I realized this isn't I'm not

666
00:58:40.440 --> 00:58:42.840
doing this in order for me to learn new things,

667
00:58:42.880 --> 00:58:49.000
but I am anyway, and it's changing. So the newer

668
00:58:49.039 --> 00:58:56.239
plasticity is happening. And sometimes you can hear enough times

669
00:58:57.719 --> 00:59:06.920
you know the actually you can relax, and relaxing is easy,

670
00:59:06.960 --> 00:59:12.760
and falling asleep is easy, and turning that danger signal

671
00:59:12.800 --> 00:59:19.639
to safe can happen or instantly, and sometimes just by

672
00:59:19.679 --> 00:59:26.079
hearing it enough times, you start to realize it's true,

673
00:59:26.880 --> 00:59:31.760
and you start to realize that actually relaxing is easy,

674
00:59:31.880 --> 00:59:39.039
and you perhaps weren't aware before just how easily you

675
00:59:39.119 --> 00:59:43.559
can let go of everything and feel calm throughout your

676
00:59:43.559 --> 00:59:49.639
body and your mind, and maybe even experience pleasure, physical

677
00:59:49.639 --> 00:59:59.880
pleasure and emotional pleasure. So you know, it's interesting stuff now.

678
01:00:00.159 --> 01:00:06.480
Or placebo and hot hypnosis overlap but differ, so both

679
01:00:06.719 --> 01:00:12.639
modulate pain, both modulate pain. Yet f m RI F MRI,

680
01:00:12.639 --> 01:00:15.840
I don't know, I know what MRI is. I don't

681
01:00:15.880 --> 01:00:20.039
know what f mri I shows. Placebo leans on limbic

682
01:00:20.280 --> 01:00:30.360
opiated Placebo leans on limbic opioid circuits, whereas hypnosis recruits

683
01:00:30.760 --> 01:00:38.440
occipital and basal ganglia pathways. I understand that I understood

684
01:00:38.480 --> 01:00:43.719
the word both in that sentence and where is recruits.

685
01:00:44.639 --> 01:00:48.039
That's a very big lot of words in that that sentence.

686
01:00:48.159 --> 01:00:53.880
That it was a big word. I can interpret it though, hmm,

687
01:00:55.159 --> 01:01:00.159
said Placebo. There was this study, it's a fame a

688
01:01:00.199 --> 01:01:07.559
study where this man was. It was in America and

689
01:01:09.360 --> 01:01:14.280
he had a very serious condition which was you know,

690
01:01:14.760 --> 01:01:20.280
as serious as in yet and he saw on the TV,

691
01:01:22.360 --> 01:01:25.119
on the news that there was this new wonder drug

692
01:01:26.639 --> 01:01:33.400
that could be a cure for what he had, and

693
01:01:33.480 --> 01:01:37.480
he asked, he asked the doctors and said, can you

694
01:01:37.559 --> 01:01:41.239
just can you put me on this medication? You know

695
01:01:41.320 --> 01:01:43.960
that it just can you just test me, test me

696
01:01:44.000 --> 01:01:47.280
with it? And they said, well, it's not really you know,

697
01:01:47.440 --> 01:01:49.719
we do need you know, it's not ready for the public,

698
01:01:49.719 --> 01:01:53.199
but we do need people to do some research with.

699
01:01:53.719 --> 01:01:55.400
So they allowed him to do it because there was

700
01:01:55.559 --> 01:02:00.840
there's nothing to lose, really, and and he happy to be.

701
01:02:01.519 --> 01:02:03.480
I don't want to say the word guinea pig. But

702
01:02:03.559 --> 01:02:06.039
you know, it was happy to be to be a

703
01:02:06.079 --> 01:02:12.440
test a part of the test pilot thing. It wasn't

704
01:02:12.480 --> 01:02:16.079
a pilot. It wasn't a test pilot all. I don't

705
01:02:16.119 --> 01:02:19.559
know why I said that. Anyway, he might have been

706
01:02:19.599 --> 01:02:23.280
a test pilot, but he was at that point he wasn't.

707
01:02:23.320 --> 01:02:29.039
He was in hospital and he had this medication and

708
01:02:29.079 --> 01:02:36.199
it worked completely, cleared up all his ailments, cleared up everything,

709
01:02:36.480 --> 01:02:43.119
His body reversed, kind of went back to normal. You know,

710
01:02:43.280 --> 01:02:45.199
I don't want to go into details, but everything kind

711
01:02:45.199 --> 01:02:49.400
of went back to how it was, and it was

712
01:02:49.440 --> 01:02:53.840
a magic It was like a magic cure. He was

713
01:02:53.880 --> 01:02:56.320
still in hospital because he was like you know, he

714
01:02:56.400 --> 01:03:00.719
was just hadn't treatments, ready to leave, and as he

715
01:03:00.800 --> 01:03:03.480
was ready to leave, he was like thanking the nurses

716
01:03:04.199 --> 01:03:09.079
on The news came like, oh it doesn't work. After all,

717
01:03:11.000 --> 01:03:16.320
they've done the studies and most of the people didn't

718
01:03:16.360 --> 01:03:26.119
have any any use He went home and he's back

719
01:03:26.159 --> 01:03:32.440
in hospital within a week. So what he got from

720
01:03:32.440 --> 01:03:37.400
that medication, which wasn't actually of any good, it wasn't useful,

721
01:03:37.440 --> 01:03:40.800
It wasn't it didn't do the trick, but it did

722
01:03:40.880 --> 01:03:43.840
have a placebo effect on him, But as soon as

723
01:03:43.880 --> 01:03:53.480
he realized it was a placebo, he yeah, it no

724
01:03:53.559 --> 01:03:57.840
longer had that effect. But they've also the placebo this.

725
01:03:58.559 --> 01:04:02.599
It's amazing amount of people that get tested with medication

726
01:04:03.360 --> 01:04:07.079
and the people with the policied that placebo I often

727
01:04:07.199 --> 01:04:09.960
have just as much benefits as the ones so they

728
01:04:10.000 --> 01:04:12.199
get a sugar pill instead of the actual real pill,

729
01:04:12.599 --> 01:04:15.119
they have just as much benefit as the person with

730
01:04:15.199 --> 01:04:22.360
the real medication. Phenomenal belief is I mean, I talked

731
01:04:22.400 --> 01:04:25.920
about recently when I was working in a chip shop

732
01:04:26.280 --> 01:04:31.360
and the I went to my boss's house. We had

733
01:04:31.400 --> 01:04:35.519
like this party and they gave me alcohol free beer.

734
01:04:36.320 --> 01:04:38.440
I didn't realize it was alcohol three They were given

735
01:04:38.480 --> 01:04:41.119
it to me in a glass and I was drunk,

736
01:04:41.679 --> 01:04:45.119
genuinely drunk until the end of the night when they

737
01:04:45.159 --> 01:04:49.639
all decided to laugh at me and tell me showed

738
01:04:49.679 --> 01:04:51.559
me all the cans that had been pouring in there.

739
01:04:52.239 --> 01:04:54.079
Everyone else had been on alcohol. I'd be the only

740
01:04:54.079 --> 01:04:58.880
one that was alcohol free. And I sobered up pretty quickly,

741
01:05:01.639 --> 01:05:05.920
And that's something I always remember. I remembered up till

742
01:05:05.920 --> 01:05:08.760
now because I'm talking about it and't I And I

743
01:05:08.800 --> 01:05:12.719
was what sixteen at the time, and it was something

744
01:05:12.760 --> 01:05:16.519
that I remember because it was apart from the fact

745
01:05:16.519 --> 01:05:21.119
that it was humiliating, it was also interesting from a

746
01:05:21.159 --> 01:05:29.280
psychological perspective because I really believed that I was drinking

747
01:05:29.559 --> 01:05:37.039
alcohol and I'd had probably four pints, five pints, which

748
01:05:37.320 --> 01:05:41.039
I knew would make me drunk. Back then, probably two

749
01:05:41.519 --> 01:05:47.280
or three pints would get me drunk. Yeah, and that

750
01:05:47.400 --> 01:05:51.239
stayed with me. That did. The rubber hand illusion gets

751
01:05:51.280 --> 01:05:57.400
stronger under trance, so highly hypnotizable volunteers reported greater ownership

752
01:05:57.800 --> 01:06:04.760
of a fake limb suggest in suggesting suggestion can hack

753
01:06:04.920 --> 01:06:12.960
body maps. I'm not sure what that means. Hardly am

754
01:06:13.000 --> 01:06:18.159
to report ownership of a fake limb. There is a

755
01:06:18.199 --> 01:06:22.719
way to actually, there's this it's probably not the same thing,

756
01:06:22.800 --> 01:06:31.440
but there's this technique where let's say someone's got a

757
01:06:31.679 --> 01:06:37.960
pain in one hand. So what they do is, let's

758
01:06:38.000 --> 01:06:40.719
say it's in the right hand and left hand's fine.

759
01:06:41.400 --> 01:06:45.400
So what do they get a mirror so you can

760
01:06:45.400 --> 01:06:48.039
see the left hand in the mirror, So the mirrors

761
01:06:48.039 --> 01:06:54.239
opposite the left hand, and the person starts moving the hand,

762
01:06:56.119 --> 01:07:01.000
so and they would poke that someone else would like

763
01:07:01.039 --> 01:07:04.440
poke into the left hand with like not a needle,

764
01:07:04.480 --> 01:07:07.239
but like a little stick or something, and they realized

765
01:07:07.280 --> 01:07:13.840
that the hand's fine. There's no absolutely fine, and they

766
01:07:13.960 --> 01:07:17.239
do that. Not for some people also that had maybe

767
01:07:17.280 --> 01:07:24.119
a missing limb. It's an amputee, it maybe had you know,

768
01:07:24.400 --> 01:07:27.639
phantom still a terrible phrase, but they call it phantom

769
01:07:27.679 --> 01:07:35.360
limb pain and the pain of go because the brain

770
01:07:35.719 --> 01:07:38.119
had been I don't want to say tricked, but the

771
01:07:38.199 --> 01:07:42.400
brain had sort of seen things in a way that

772
01:07:43.760 --> 01:07:48.320
kind of made sense, you know. So yeah, that's that's

773
01:07:48.360 --> 01:07:50.840
something that could be done. But I don't think that's

774
01:07:50.880 --> 01:07:53.599
what they're talking about the rubber hand though. I suppose

775
01:07:53.599 --> 01:07:56.039
if someone's in a deep trance and you say, okay,

776
01:07:56.119 --> 01:08:00.960
this hand is your hand, and yeah, mess around with that.

777
01:08:01.639 --> 01:08:07.159
Catalepsy isn't just a stage gag. So A twenty twenty

778
01:08:07.159 --> 01:08:14.000
four pilot cut functional neurological disorder symptoms after eight hypnosis

779
01:08:14.039 --> 01:08:23.880
catalypsy sessions. I don't know anything about this, so I'm

780
01:08:23.880 --> 01:08:29.880
going to look this up. This is the first I've

781
01:08:29.920 --> 01:08:34.560
heard of this anyone, anyone. This might be the longest

782
01:08:34.560 --> 01:08:36.720
recording I ever do, because I'm only at number twenty eight.

783
01:08:38.039 --> 01:08:42.239
So okay, A twenty twenty four pilot study explored the

784
01:08:42.239 --> 01:08:48.399
effects of hypnosis combined with catalepsy. So catalypsy is pretty

785
01:08:48.479 --> 01:08:50.760
much where you just kind of I mean, you can

786
01:08:50.800 --> 01:08:55.720
have someone cataleptic where the arm is just sticking out

787
01:08:55.760 --> 01:08:58.319
and it won't it won't budge, it just stays there.

788
01:09:00.000 --> 01:09:05.159
And if you remember, remember the Robert de Niro movie

789
01:09:05.199 --> 01:09:11.039
and Robin Williams Awake Awakening I think it was called,

790
01:09:11.520 --> 01:09:16.239
and Robert de Niro was in a cataleptic state where

791
01:09:16.239 --> 01:09:22.159
he just sat there and Robin Williams found a cure

792
01:09:23.039 --> 01:09:24.800
before he found a cure and he gave it to

793
01:09:25.520 --> 01:09:29.560
Robert de Niro, and thebe chucked the ball and Robert

794
01:09:29.600 --> 01:09:34.800
Denier had caught the ball. So a study used a

795
01:09:34.920 --> 01:09:39.920
waiting list control design with forty six patients diagnosed with

796
01:09:40.279 --> 01:09:46.760
FND functional neurological disorder. I don't know really much about that.

797
01:09:47.159 --> 01:09:54.079
Participants underwent eight hypnosis catalepsy sessions, which resulted in a

798
01:09:54.119 --> 01:10:01.359
significant reduction in the symptoms of severity. The study measured

799
01:10:01.399 --> 01:10:12.000
symptoms verity use in the psychogenetic movement disorder blah blah blah. Okay,

800
01:10:12.439 --> 01:10:14.640
so that's it, as there's there's more to that, but

801
01:10:14.720 --> 01:10:16.319
I just thought. I just looked that up because I'd

802
01:10:16.399 --> 01:10:23.199
never heard of that one before. Hypnosis can tweak immune

803
01:10:23.560 --> 01:10:29.199
cells so highly susceptible subjects show measurable shifts in B

804
01:10:29.359 --> 01:10:37.800
cell and helper T counts after a single session. There

805
01:10:37.880 --> 01:10:46.920
is a technique for certain disorders where this is going

806
01:10:46.960 --> 01:10:51.439
back years where they would imagine like a pac Man,

807
01:10:51.720 --> 01:10:54.920
you know the old Atari Are they Atari? But they

808
01:10:54.920 --> 01:11:00.840
were like computer games pac Man eating the sets the

809
01:11:02.000 --> 01:11:05.560
bad cells or the cells that they didn't want in

810
01:11:05.600 --> 01:11:08.319
their body. And imagine the pack man going around and

811
01:11:08.359 --> 01:11:16.439
eating those and it helped with recovery and helped with

812
01:11:17.119 --> 01:11:20.680
the treatment that was being given to some of those individuals.

813
01:11:21.920 --> 01:11:25.359
There's a lot more to that I've never read. I

814
01:11:25.359 --> 01:11:28.479
don't think I've ever read a book specifically on that subject,

815
01:11:29.000 --> 01:11:30.399
but it is fascinating.

816
01:11:32.479 --> 01:11:39.239
I think c O M c O M T isn't

817
01:11:39.359 --> 01:11:44.479
the only gene what.

818
01:11:46.800 --> 01:11:51.479
O O p r M one variates variants also linked

819
01:11:51.479 --> 01:11:57.119
to trance and pain. High hypnotizables often have an opioid

820
01:11:57.199 --> 01:12:05.279
receptor that blows drug analgesia hinting hypnosis using uses non

821
01:12:05.279 --> 01:12:11.520
opioid roots because that's the thing, isn't it, Like we

822
01:12:11.680 --> 01:12:18.520
take medication and that it's still the brain that's doing

823
01:12:18.560 --> 01:12:22.560
the work. It just activates those parts of the brain

824
01:12:22.880 --> 01:12:27.039
that then gives those feelings or causes that healing to

825
01:12:27.079 --> 01:12:30.960
take place or inflammation to reduce and all that stuff.

826
01:12:31.039 --> 01:12:39.239
So it's not the actual hypnosis can trigger those same receptors,

827
01:12:42.239 --> 01:12:48.359
but through non drug routes, so manages to push those buttons,

828
01:12:48.600 --> 01:12:52.560
but without the same buttons that maybe I don't know

829
01:12:52.880 --> 01:12:59.560
painkillers would press, but without the painkillers, without the medication,

830
01:13:00.800 --> 01:13:03.319
so it's a different route, but can still press those buttons,

831
01:13:03.399 --> 01:13:09.000
which causes the danger signal to turn into a safe signal.

832
01:13:10.359 --> 01:13:20.319
High suggestibility correlates with vivid imagery and absorption, so psychometric

833
01:13:20.439 --> 01:13:32.560
studies place hypnotizability alongside flow, daydreaming, and creative immersion traits.

834
01:13:32.720 --> 01:13:38.640
So flow. There's a really famous book called called Flow.

835
01:13:38.760 --> 01:13:44.119
By doing my check for see, it's very, very long.

836
01:13:44.760 --> 01:13:47.640
I think it's a Russian name, very long name. I

837
01:13:47.720 --> 01:13:52.680
can't pronounce it. And it's all about being in the moment,

838
01:13:52.840 --> 01:13:57.119
being in I'd be like me now, I'm very into

839
01:13:57.159 --> 01:14:01.720
what I'm doing right now to the very focused on

840
01:14:01.840 --> 01:14:08.119
this and nothing else really, although I may be scratching

841
01:14:08.199 --> 01:14:10.680
my crotch at some point because there's a bit of

842
01:14:10.720 --> 01:14:14.479
a niche. I think the fleas a comeback. So you've

843
01:14:14.479 --> 01:14:23.439
got daydreams another one, and it's a hypnosis daydreaming. It's

844
01:14:23.560 --> 01:14:29.119
kind of the same ballpark in a sense of imagination,

845
01:14:29.920 --> 01:14:35.039
focusing on something. And you know, if we daydream on

846
01:14:35.720 --> 01:14:42.479
feeling good and daydream about how nice it is to

847
01:14:42.520 --> 01:14:46.960
just relax, and you know, daydream and remembering times when

848
01:14:47.000 --> 01:14:52.920
you were relaxed, just start to become more relaxed. Hypnosis

849
01:14:53.039 --> 01:15:00.840
taps top down attention, not sleep. So sure what that means.

850
01:15:01.399 --> 01:15:06.840
Modern non state theories view trance as an agreed role

851
01:15:07.319 --> 01:15:15.079
that sharpens focus rather than induces unconsciousness. But it also

852
01:15:15.520 --> 01:15:23.199
causes deep, deep relaxation, and deep deep relaxation can also

853
01:15:23.359 --> 01:15:29.600
lead to fallen asleep. So you know, there's there's quite

854
01:15:29.600 --> 01:15:33.199
a few people in the hypnosis world that would be

855
01:15:33.439 --> 01:15:38.560
very against the idea of hypnosis for sleep. But what

856
01:15:38.640 --> 01:15:45.520
hypnosis does. It causes you can have focus, but also

857
01:15:45.840 --> 01:15:55.119
causes can cause deep deep relaxation and falling asleep. Is

858
01:15:55.319 --> 01:15:58.920
ninety nine point nine point nine point nine point nine

859
01:15:58.960 --> 01:16:05.600
percent relaxation, feeling calm, letting go, how your body relax

860
01:16:05.720 --> 01:16:11.479
your mind slows down all that stuff. Maybe your mind wanders,

861
01:16:12.199 --> 01:16:20.800
that's part of relaxation, maybe daydreaming. So that's different from

862
01:16:20.840 --> 01:16:29.079
when you're focusing on something particular. You're not necessarily going

863
01:16:29.159 --> 01:16:38.359
to fall asleep during that situation. But when you're relaxed

864
01:16:38.840 --> 01:16:43.000
and you're feeling completely loose and floppy and all that stuff,

865
01:16:43.880 --> 01:16:50.000
then that's all really just leads to sleeping. So it's

866
01:16:50.039 --> 01:16:55.439
not really so much. And you know you will fall asleep.

867
01:16:55.600 --> 01:16:58.000
You must fall asleep. When I say this, you will

868
01:16:58.039 --> 01:17:03.199
fall asleep. That's not really really how well. I've never

869
01:17:03.239 --> 01:17:08.760
really operated in that way. It's about relaxing, and the

870
01:17:08.760 --> 01:17:15.359
more you relax, you just naturally if falling asleep is

871
01:17:15.359 --> 01:17:20.880
the right thing, and that's what will happen. And also

872
01:17:23.520 --> 01:17:25.239
in the same way as if you wanted to keep

873
01:17:25.239 --> 01:17:31.560
awake by keeping your mind busy, that's a way to

874
01:17:31.640 --> 01:17:35.520
keep awake, isn't it. So if our minds are busy

875
01:17:35.560 --> 01:17:39.479
and we want to go to sleep, we calm the

876
01:17:39.600 --> 01:17:45.960
mind down and let go of stuff. Let go of things,

877
01:17:46.359 --> 01:17:51.479
and when you focus, so use your focus. But if

878
01:17:51.520 --> 01:17:55.640
you start focusing on the different parts of your body,

879
01:17:56.239 --> 01:18:01.880
your mind starts to get bored with that, which means

880
01:18:01.880 --> 01:18:08.800
your mind starts to slow down, and when you're focusing

881
01:18:08.880 --> 01:18:11.039
on your hands and then you're on your knees and

882
01:18:11.079 --> 01:18:16.279
on your hips and your shoulders and your eyes, or

883
01:18:16.319 --> 01:18:21.600
maybe you're focusing on my words for example, or some

884
01:18:22.560 --> 01:18:25.479
information that you've got no interest in it in, like

885
01:18:25.760 --> 01:18:30.319
you know, hypnosis, even though it's something that for some

886
01:18:30.479 --> 01:18:35.319
reason I'm interested in, you may just find it completely

887
01:18:35.479 --> 01:18:41.920
boring and be of no relevance or interest to you whatsoever.

888
01:18:42.960 --> 01:18:46.920
I might as well be talking about my underpinning collection

889
01:18:49.359 --> 01:18:56.760
that I've been collected since I was five. Hypnosis amplifies

890
01:18:58.960 --> 01:19:08.000
memory and help to recall stuff, and so yeah, hypnotic

891
01:19:08.319 --> 01:19:16.399
depth and placebo responsiveness partially overlap. So some scientists brand

892
01:19:16.479 --> 01:19:25.039
the intersection hypnobob or hypnobo hypnobo, suggesting ethical hypnosis may

893
01:19:25.239 --> 01:19:35.960
harvest placebo like benefits without deception. And yes, I mean

894
01:19:35.960 --> 01:19:41.520
it has been said that hypnosis might literally just be

895
01:19:41.720 --> 01:19:51.359
placebo in a sense of belief. It's so powerful and

896
01:19:51.600 --> 01:19:55.079
when you believe that, and also it's not just belief,

897
01:19:55.680 --> 01:20:00.840
it's based on previous experience. So there's a people that

898
01:20:00.880 --> 01:20:04.279
have listened to me before who know that when you

899
01:20:04.399 --> 01:20:07.319
listen to me, at the very least, you're going to

900
01:20:07.359 --> 01:20:11.880
feel relaxed. You're going to feel calm, your mind will

901
01:20:11.920 --> 01:20:16.039
slow down, your body will relax, and you know, maybe

902
01:20:16.279 --> 01:20:19.600
do you fall asleep. When you listen to me, you

903
01:20:19.640 --> 01:20:31.039
feel better, You feel calmer, the stress is released, which

904
01:20:31.119 --> 01:20:34.039
means when you listen to me again tomorrow for do

905
01:20:34.079 --> 01:20:40.880
a different recording, you'll listen with that expectation, with that

906
01:20:41.039 --> 01:20:52.399
belief system built on previous experience of feeling relaxed, feeling calm,

907
01:20:52.439 --> 01:21:00.359
feeling peaceful, and maybe even experiencing the world in a

908
01:21:00.560 --> 01:21:06.000
nicer way and feeling more positive during the day as well,

909
01:21:08.800 --> 01:21:19.680
they're sleeping more easily. Elite athletes use trance for recovery.

910
01:21:20.760 --> 01:21:28.840
So hypnotic scripts speed muscle relaxation, improve imagery rehearsal, and

911
01:21:28.880 --> 01:21:37.039
cut perceived exertion and controlled trials. Improved imagery rehearsal is

912
01:21:37.119 --> 01:21:40.880
definitely something that's been used for years. I've got books

913
01:21:41.359 --> 01:21:49.000
on helping people with golf I think tennis, and they

914
01:21:49.079 --> 01:21:52.000
discovered so I say they, but it's been discovered that

915
01:21:53.239 --> 01:21:56.960
there were trials that they've got someone that actually practices,

916
01:21:58.319 --> 01:22:03.960
for example, hitting a golf ball, someone that practices physically,

917
01:22:04.000 --> 01:22:07.159
and someone that practices in their imagination, in their mind,

918
01:22:07.680 --> 01:22:10.439
and the person that practices in their mind can have

919
01:22:10.640 --> 01:22:13.840
just as much benefit as a person who practices physically

920
01:22:15.079 --> 01:22:18.159
and a person who doesn't practice at all. Against someone

921
01:22:18.199 --> 01:22:22.319
that practices in their mind is worse off than the

922
01:22:22.359 --> 01:22:25.800
one that practices in their mind, performs better than the

923
01:22:25.800 --> 01:22:30.319
one that doesn't practice at all, and doesn't practice in

924
01:22:30.319 --> 01:22:36.560
their mind either. So it's quite again down to belief, again,

925
01:22:36.680 --> 01:22:46.199
down to expectation. And someone would call that I suppose placebo.

926
01:22:46.399 --> 01:22:56.520
I don't know. Hypnosis, hypnotic suggestions can lower skin temperature,

927
01:22:57.359 --> 01:23:01.600
could also heat touch skin temperature. It can They've done,

928
01:23:01.800 --> 01:23:07.520
they've done research, they've done thermometers, And that's part of

929
01:23:07.560 --> 01:23:13.359
the bio is it biofeedback biofeedback thing where you can

930
01:23:13.399 --> 01:23:18.760
also reduce your pulse rate. You can reduce your temperature

931
01:23:19.720 --> 01:23:24.960
by imagining an ice cube resting on the back of

932
01:23:25.000 --> 01:23:28.319
your hand or on the palm of your hand will

933
01:23:28.359 --> 01:23:32.439
reduce the temperature of the palm of your hand. The

934
01:23:32.439 --> 01:23:35.720
more you focus, the more you just imagine it's there,

935
01:23:36.800 --> 01:23:47.720
and you can imagine, you can turn down the speed

936
01:23:47.760 --> 01:23:53.560
of your pulse or even I think blood pressure. You know,

937
01:23:53.960 --> 01:24:03.159
there's all kinds of things that they've tested on. Genetics, attention, style,

938
01:24:03.279 --> 01:24:09.199
and expectation explain about half of hypnotic variability. The rest

939
01:24:09.239 --> 01:24:17.920
remains a fertile mystery for cognitive neuroscience. Unstudy words individually.

940
01:24:20.359 --> 01:24:28.760
Ah oh, yesterday, I helped this neighbor cut some weeds

941
01:24:29.039 --> 01:24:32.399
from using one of those fly moods, and I seem

942
01:24:32.439 --> 01:24:37.319
to have damaged my left bicep. It's weird. It's strange

943
01:24:37.319 --> 01:24:40.119
because I do wait quite regularly, but I must have

944
01:24:40.359 --> 01:24:55.520
used the arm in a different way. It's weird. It's

945
01:24:55.720 --> 01:25:01.439
A twenty nineteen review of experimental pain trials found hypnosis

946
01:25:01.479 --> 01:25:13.600
consistently outperformed no treatment controls okay, hypno birth and eases labor.

947
01:25:14.279 --> 01:25:18.279
So this is it's not new, but it's a relatively

948
01:25:18.359 --> 01:25:24.119
new thing. Hypno birth, in which basically you go through

949
01:25:24.199 --> 01:25:32.479
you rehearse before the the birth, you rehearse going through

950
01:25:32.520 --> 01:25:38.199
the whole thing, and generally people seem to have a

951
01:25:38.239 --> 01:25:44.439
shorter the whole thing seems to be shorter and needing

952
01:25:44.640 --> 01:25:52.840
less analgesia and also calmer parents. You've also got other

953
01:25:52.920 --> 01:26:02.920
things like hypno what do they call that? Weight loss?

954
01:26:02.960 --> 01:26:08.520
Thing like hypnotic versions of those, so instead of actually

955
01:26:08.560 --> 01:26:14.439
having the balloon put into your stomach, that actually they

956
01:26:14.520 --> 01:26:19.119
hypnotize as hypnosis, where you kind of imagine going through

957
01:26:19.520 --> 01:26:28.640
the process of having that done and then the you know,

958
01:26:28.960 --> 01:26:31.560
I've got some books on that as well, going on

959
01:26:31.600 --> 01:26:37.119
about how that would you know, reduce appetite for those

960
01:26:37.199 --> 01:26:42.880
that needed to lose weight, and apparently it's very very

961
01:26:43.279 --> 01:26:54.600
helpful and useful. So yeah, there's a lot more here,

962
01:26:55.119 --> 01:26:59.560
but I think I've talked for way too much, man,

963
01:27:04.720 --> 01:27:08.479
So I got through about forty I think nearly yeah,

964
01:27:08.479 --> 01:27:12.359
about forty different ones out of one hundred that came up.

965
01:27:12.520 --> 01:27:14.439
I'm just gonna have a quick look a there's anything

966
01:27:15.319 --> 01:27:18.159
that's going to shoot out at me that might be

967
01:27:18.560 --> 01:27:22.600
virtual gastric band, So that's the one I was thinking about.

968
01:27:27.000 --> 01:27:32.159
Hypnosis melts, menopause or hot flushes even in men, and

969
01:27:32.319 --> 01:27:52.840
ninety four percent reduction, Ah, ninety four okay, So yeah,

970
01:27:53.319 --> 01:28:14.640
helps with phobias, helps with it's so many things. Wow, wow, okay,

971
01:28:14.760 --> 01:28:25.239
something I won't be just interesting, blimey. So yeah, there's

972
01:28:25.279 --> 01:28:31.000
a lot here, so much. Guy, did hypnosis apps form

973
01:28:31.199 --> 01:28:34.920
a four hundred and eighty one million market in twenty

974
01:28:35.000 --> 01:28:41.239
twenty four, projected to double by twenty thirty one. Where's

975
01:28:41.319 --> 01:28:47.560
my money? Well, I'm in the wrong game. Wait a minute,

976
01:28:48.399 --> 01:28:58.479
guy did hypnosis apps. There's a lot of famous people

977
01:28:58.560 --> 01:29:02.439
also that have had hypnosis that would have been probably

978
01:29:02.560 --> 01:29:10.119
more maybe more interesting for you to listen to if

979
01:29:10.159 --> 01:29:13.520
I was maybe talking about well, I'll be interested for

980
01:29:13.560 --> 01:29:17.680
me as well, talking about famous people that have had

981
01:29:18.960 --> 01:29:30.079
hypnosis to help with various different things. Chicken hyps is

982
01:29:30.119 --> 01:29:33.680
really tonic immobility, So draw a line from a beak

983
01:29:33.840 --> 01:29:37.319
outwards and a bird may freeze for up to thirty minutes,

984
01:29:38.119 --> 01:29:46.119
described in sixteen forty six. So it's not it's not hypnosis,

985
01:29:46.159 --> 01:29:51.680
it's just something else. Sharks can be flipped into a

986
01:29:51.720 --> 01:29:57.800
trans like state too. Orcas exploit tonic immobility by inverting

987
01:29:57.840 --> 01:30:08.640
great whites. Okay, before having a snack, Wow, Snake charmers

988
01:30:08.760 --> 01:30:13.520
aren't hypnotizing cobras. The snake's tracked the flutes, notion motion,

989
01:30:14.039 --> 01:30:32.720
not the music. Okay, okay. The largest mindfulness session lesson

990
01:30:32.880 --> 01:30:39.359
record one one hundred and seventeen people hints at a

991
01:30:39.359 --> 01:30:44.760
at a mass trance logistics, though it wasn't technically hypnosis

992
01:30:45.079 --> 01:30:50.039
so that was a Guinness World record. Mean mindfulness is

993
01:30:50.159 --> 01:30:54.199
more what it's meditation rather than it's kind of in

994
01:30:54.239 --> 01:31:01.880
the middle. Really yeah, yeah, I'm just looking at this

995
01:31:02.640 --> 01:31:09.319
fast food as fast food adds sometimes hide ericsonian embedded commands,

996
01:31:09.920 --> 01:31:15.239
the technique lifted strength and therapy handbooks. Yeah. The first

997
01:31:15.279 --> 01:31:21.359
people to use hypnosis really like properly make use of

998
01:31:21.680 --> 01:31:27.600
hypnotic language was advertisers, especially on radio and then television,

999
01:31:29.720 --> 01:31:34.239
in order to get people to buy stuff. It's the

1000
01:31:34.840 --> 01:31:42.000
language the the that's where psychology, like the cutting edge

1001
01:31:42.039 --> 01:31:49.439
psychology is used the most, and that's in advertising, not

1002
01:31:49.479 --> 01:31:52.520
just advertising, but also TV shows as well to get

1003
01:31:52.520 --> 01:32:00.000
people to watch. So yeah, it's it's worth knowing that stuff.

1004
01:32:02.159 --> 01:32:13.399
I think it's very very very interesting. Apparently, prestigious medical

1005
01:32:13.399 --> 01:32:25.399
schools such as Harvard, Stanford, UCL now offer elective hypnosis training.

1006
01:32:29.920 --> 01:32:40.399
In the fifties, there was a famous hypnotist forget his

1007
01:32:40.520 --> 01:32:43.279
name now, it is terrible, isn't it, but he used

1008
01:32:43.319 --> 01:32:50.960
to specifically teach doctors and dentists and surgeons hypnosis. Never

1009
01:32:51.079 --> 01:32:56.920
told Elman, David Elman, he never taught. He had a

1010
01:32:56.920 --> 01:33:00.600
book that was green. He wrote a book. I also

1011
01:33:00.680 --> 01:33:03.840
used to have his audio tapes as well, but I

1012
01:33:03.880 --> 01:33:09.520
don't have them anymore. It'd only teached doctors, wouldn't teach

1013
01:33:10.079 --> 01:33:17.479
the public dentists and doctors so that they could a

1014
01:33:17.600 --> 01:33:21.840
dentists especially really, but also to help calm patients down

1015
01:33:21.960 --> 01:33:25.640
and things like that. So yeah, and he used to

1016
01:33:25.640 --> 01:33:32.640
do much quicker chances, Yeah, quite quick hypnosis, because there

1017
01:33:32.680 --> 01:33:37.239
wasn't time for long drawn out stuff, you know, because

1018
01:33:37.399 --> 01:33:41.800
patients maybe only get like fifteen minutes or twenty minutes

1019
01:33:41.880 --> 01:33:45.600
or whatever back then, maybe half an hour. This was

1020
01:33:45.640 --> 01:33:56.079
the fifties, fifties and sixties, maybe the forties, fifties, probably

1021
01:33:56.159 --> 01:34:00.279
fifties and sixties. I'd say Dave Ellman because he used

1022
01:34:00.319 --> 01:34:06.239
to be a radio presenter as well. I think he

1023
01:34:06.239 --> 01:34:10.399
had some kind of radio show about hobbies and somebody

1024
01:34:10.479 --> 01:34:13.359
came in to talk about their hobby, but their hobby

1025
01:34:13.439 --> 01:34:21.319
was hypnosis, and I think the person came in and

1026
01:34:21.359 --> 01:34:26.960
did and hypnotized someone on the radio, which it probably

1027
01:34:27.000 --> 01:34:29.520
didn't work. It's about the same as doing eventually christ

1028
01:34:29.560 --> 01:34:33.840
actor isn't it on the radio. But he became I think,

1029
01:34:34.000 --> 01:34:38.920
fascinated and went to see this person on stage, went

1030
01:34:38.960 --> 01:34:42.880
to see his training or whatever. I don't know and

1031
01:34:42.920 --> 01:34:49.840
then got into hypnosis himself. Oh well, that's my little

1032
01:34:49.840 --> 01:34:56.800
memory of him. So I'm going to go. So thank

1033
01:34:56.840 --> 01:34:59.760
you for listening. Remember to be kind to yourself because

1034
01:34:59.800 --> 01:35:04.159
you do you deserve to be happy. Be gentle with yourself,

1035
01:35:04.560 --> 01:35:08.680
because you do deserve to feel safe, lots of love.

1036
01:35:11.479 --> 01:35:36.479
By relax in a more deep and meaningful way, maybe

1037
01:35:36.720 --> 01:35:41.760
in a way that can not just allow you to

1038
01:35:42.039 --> 01:35:53.039
feel calmer now and throughout the time we've spend together here,

1039
01:35:55.039 --> 01:36:00.720
not just relaxed at the end of the rearing when

1040
01:36:00.760 --> 01:36:07.359
it's finished and you can enjoy that sense of comfort

1041
01:36:07.600 --> 01:36:22.479
and peace, but also I think it would be nice

1042
01:36:22.600 --> 01:36:42.399
to have those feelings of relaxation continue for longer after

1043
01:36:42.479 --> 01:36:53.079
the recording has ended, so that you can still benefit

1044
01:36:55.920 --> 01:37:03.239
from listening to my voice, maybe in a few hours time,

1045
01:37:05.119 --> 01:37:19.119
perhaps tomorrow, and then by listening regularly, especially if you find,

1046
01:37:20.439 --> 01:37:24.039
like some people do and myself as well. I sometimes

1047
01:37:24.039 --> 01:37:30.319
I find one particular recording that really resonates with me,

1048
01:37:34.680 --> 01:37:37.079
and I just listen to it over and over again

1049
01:37:39.319 --> 01:37:52.359
every morning, every evening. There was this recording from We're

1050
01:37:52.359 --> 01:37:58.119
going back to about nineteen ninety nine. It wasn't hypnosis,

1051
01:37:58.199 --> 01:38:03.520
but it was a guided visualizations. It kind of was hypnosis, really,

1052
01:38:06.000 --> 01:38:11.159
and I managed to find it again and it still

1053
01:38:11.239 --> 01:38:16.840
has the same effect on me. And part of it

1054
01:38:17.000 --> 01:38:31.840
was the person's voice relaxed me. She just felt so peaceful,

1055
01:38:33.840 --> 01:38:40.399
and I'd look forward to listening to her in the

1056
01:38:40.439 --> 01:38:51.119
morning and in the evening. And I knew before even

1057
01:38:51.880 --> 01:38:59.119
pressing the play button. As soon as I've done that,

1058
01:39:00.079 --> 01:39:03.479
pressed the play button. This was in the days of

1059
01:39:08.560 --> 01:39:17.720
CD players pressed the play button. In fact, it might

1060
01:39:17.760 --> 01:39:22.039
have even been a tape tape recorder. I'd lie down

1061
01:39:22.119 --> 01:39:34.720
on the bed and then even without necessarily listening to

1062
01:39:34.920 --> 01:39:48.039
her words because I had them memorized. Really, it was

1063
01:39:48.079 --> 01:39:58.720
as if my body knew exactly what to do, and

1064
01:39:58.880 --> 01:40:21.159
the muscles almost went into automatic relaxation, and I remember

1065
01:40:21.239 --> 01:40:35.319
my mind would slow down. Now. Now, I was listening

1066
01:40:35.359 --> 01:40:42.119
to this recording in the early days of learning hypnosis,

1067
01:40:44.680 --> 01:40:52.520
and long before I ever made any videos or audio

1068
01:40:52.560 --> 01:40:57.319
recordings myself, because I didn't start doing that till two

1069
01:40:57.359 --> 01:41:16.680
thousand and six, I knew, I knew how helpful I

1070
01:41:16.760 --> 01:41:27.039
found being able to just let go, to have that

1071
01:41:27.399 --> 01:41:40.039
trust in the person that I'm listening to, knowing that

1072
01:41:40.119 --> 01:41:48.439
it's going to be just as relaxing, if not more so.

1073
01:41:51.079 --> 01:41:58.079
Each time you hear my voice, you may feel the same.

1074
01:42:04.439 --> 01:42:16.079
Some people have been listening to me for over a decade,

1075
01:42:19.880 --> 01:42:23.920
maybe not solidly, obviously not twenty four hours a day,

1076
01:42:25.640 --> 01:42:41.399
but maybe people come back. Some people maybe listen every day.

1077
01:42:43.880 --> 01:42:49.880
There's something that I do which you may not realize

1078
01:42:52.279 --> 01:43:10.840
by listening, is when I record these recordings now, for example,

1079
01:43:15.399 --> 01:43:27.600
I also am affected by the words that I say.

1080
01:43:28.439 --> 01:43:37.800
So if I set you focus on your feet, notice

1081
01:43:37.880 --> 01:43:45.239
your feet relaxing, I will be focusing on my feet.

1082
01:43:50.000 --> 01:44:07.399
I will be noticing my feet relaxing. If I said,

1083
01:44:07.520 --> 01:44:15.199
focus on your hands, and maybe notice the difference between

1084
01:44:15.279 --> 01:44:26.199
each hand, perhaps notice the air in the room, the

1085
01:44:26.239 --> 01:44:30.880
temperature of the room. On the backs of your hands.

1086
01:44:38.680 --> 01:44:42.560
You may start to notice what almost feels like a

1087
01:44:42.680 --> 01:44:50.760
very light breeze, even though there may not be any

1088
01:44:51.159 --> 01:44:56.079
type of breeze at all where you are right now.

1089
01:45:04.239 --> 01:45:14.880
And as you become aware of your hands, I'm also

1090
01:45:15.199 --> 01:45:43.399
aware of how relaxed my hands are feeling now. And

1091
01:45:43.560 --> 01:45:50.479
when it comes to potentially drifting off to sleep, which

1092
01:45:50.560 --> 01:46:04.760
may be the reason you're listening, I also feel drowsy

1093
01:46:06.960 --> 01:46:20.439
when I make these recordings. I also notice my mind drifting.

1094
01:46:28.319 --> 01:46:40.920
In fact, at times I've actually fallen asleep without even noticing,

1095
01:46:45.800 --> 01:46:54.880
and then I carry on talking. And it's only where

1096
01:46:55.199 --> 01:47:04.319
I listen back to do the editing. I hear snoring,

1097
01:47:06.239 --> 01:47:13.520
and I think I don't remember snoring. I remember talking.

1098
01:47:16.319 --> 01:47:23.319
Is this snoring away was a pick turned up? That's

1099
01:47:23.319 --> 01:47:31.199
why I sound like when I snore, I get really

1100
01:47:31.359 --> 01:47:44.880
into the whole experience. I don't know how you feel.

1101
01:47:51.039 --> 01:47:57.600
How relaxed do you feel in your feet, how relaxed

1102
01:48:01.439 --> 01:48:22.520
you feel in your hands. I have noticed more and

1103
01:48:22.760 --> 01:48:41.680
more that the more relaxed, deeper level of comfort you feel,

1104
01:48:45.279 --> 01:49:01.439
the easier your breathing becomes. It's almost like that additional

1105
01:49:04.600 --> 01:49:28.000
muscle relaxation. So this allows you debree easier without necessarily

1106
01:49:30.800 --> 01:49:58.800
focusing on your breath, however, being able to notice the

1107
01:49:58.840 --> 01:50:28.760
ease in which you breathe so naturally. You breathe so

1108
01:50:29.079 --> 01:51:18.239
very easily and smoothly. Whenever I imagine my breathing improving, when

1109
01:51:18.279 --> 01:51:33.600
I've got my eyes closed, I tend to visualize a

1110
01:51:33.720 --> 01:51:50.319
beautiful field with trees and flowers producing all that life

1111
01:51:50.399 --> 01:52:22.760
giving oxygen. And it feels nice too, if nothing else,

1112
01:52:25.960 --> 01:53:00.359
just taking some time away from everything, enjoying that fearing

1113
01:53:00.439 --> 01:53:51.000
of peace, serenity with a joyful heart. Time seems to

1114
01:53:51.239 --> 01:54:26.319
just drip by, so very slowly, relaxed, so deeply, peaceful,

1115
01:54:36.239 --> 01:55:44.359
completely unattached to any thoughts whatsoever in this moment, completely free.

1116
01:55:45.520 --> 01:56:36.920
Noticing that your mind has slowed down. Slowed down because

1117
01:56:37.079 --> 01:57:05.039
nothing really requires your attention. You can enjure way the

1118
01:57:05.039 --> 01:57:17.039
physical sensations of allowing the stress to drip out of

1119
01:57:17.079 --> 01:57:37.119
your body, Dripping out of every part of your body

1120
01:57:47.079 --> 01:58:23.079
and being released from your brain. Hung your mind slowly

1121
01:58:25.560 --> 01:59:09.640
but surely, The muscles in your legs relax ress so

1122
01:59:10.159 --> 01:59:51.000
very deeply, REGs so deeply, and the feelings, the pleasant

1123
01:59:51.199 --> 02:00:16.039
feelings in your arms and shoulders, deepening each part of

1124
02:00:16.079 --> 02:00:57.720
your body further and deeper and deeper. Noticine, the feelings

1125
02:00:58.119 --> 02:01:25.039
in the back of your neck, feelings in your wrists,

1126
02:01:57.720 --> 02:02:49.159
muscles in the front of your body. I also feeling peaceful, deeping.

1127
02:02:54.720 --> 02:03:05.039
There's a sense of peace spreads through your very core.

1128
02:03:35.520 --> 02:03:55.479
Even when you focus on your mind. Your mind becomes

1129
02:04:02.760 --> 02:05:40.520
a slower, deeper, relaxing, so very slow. Your stomach tastefull

1130
02:05:40.720 --> 02:06:27.239
in your stomach, your back. Notice notice how relaxed. You

1131
02:06:27.640 --> 02:07:05.960
now feel in the hole of your back. You spy

1132
02:07:10.079 --> 02:07:14.800
from your brain all the way down the middle of

1133
02:07:14.840 --> 02:07:26.560
your back, sending and receiving millions of messages every.

1134
02:07:26.319 --> 02:08:57.359
Day, deepcomfort, increasing deeply relaxed, your knees, legs, spreading these

1135
02:08:57.479 --> 02:09:00.640
signals down your spine, wood.

1136
02:09:04.680 --> 02:09:23.560
Into air. Every part of your body, your shins and

1137
02:09:23.720 --> 02:10:15.319
your calf muscles were outbursts feelings of peace and tranquility

1138
02:10:19.239 --> 02:10:33.239
spreading through your body, tips of your toes, to your eyes,

1139
02:10:37.600 --> 02:10:56.399
your fingers, all the way you'll lower back. And I'm

1140
02:10:56.479 --> 02:11:58.640
letting go, read a thinker. Pace drifting mind just won't

1141
02:11:58.760 --> 02:12:24.039

Enjoy the space, this space of peace and safety, fayy relxed,

1147
02:17:56.959 --> 02:18:21.639
letting go. Maybe we can just focus on the different

1148
02:18:22.040 --> 02:18:56.840
parts of your body, just to notice your forehead and

1149
02:18:57.120 --> 02:19:58.719
your eyes. June Sile not to say in the SENSI

1150
02:20:01.680 --> 02:21:33.239

pace to breeze, so much easy. This you may have

1152
02:23:21.799 --> 02:24:21.840
You may not have noticed your mind drifting, peaceful move

1153
02:24:22.280 --> 02:24:42.799
ay even more deeply in the direction of total blissful pace.

1154
02:24:47.040 --> 02:24:48.719
Blissful pace.

1155
02:24:59.799 --> 02:25:59.360
Hmm hhhh.

1156
02:26:05.479 --> 02:27:16.120
To to pace come so calm lett him go. Peace

1157
02:27:17.120 --> 02:27:52.479
of mind X body so rex.

1158
02:28:00.600 --> 02:28:02.040
So relaxed.

1159
02:28:26.559 --> 02:28:53.360
A body feels almost invisible, so very relaxed and peaceful

1160
02:29:07.520 --> 02:29:56.559
pace real like card I'm slip saw so the fav

1161
02:30:07.440 --> 02:30:13.639
And you could start to notice that you are feeling

1162
02:30:14.079 --> 02:30:25.280
more relaxed, even though I've not purposely focused your mind

1163
02:30:26.239 --> 02:30:33.799
upon that sense of physical comfort that is growing within

1164
02:30:33.920 --> 02:30:43.040
you throughout your body, and your mind starts to slow down,

1165
02:30:48.000 --> 02:30:55.159
and that could be almost in recognition of I guess

1166
02:30:55.600 --> 02:31:08.079
my speech not being particularly fast and things just generally

1167
02:31:09.760 --> 02:31:20.799
feel calmer. Just by listening to my voice, you give

1168
02:31:20.840 --> 02:31:27.760
yourself an opportunity to take a break from the day,

1169
02:31:29.920 --> 02:31:37.399
take a break from your life as it is, and

1170
02:31:37.559 --> 02:31:45.280
to give yourself a rest. Giving yourself permission to take

1171
02:31:45.399 --> 02:31:50.920
some time off and to allow your body to relax

1172
02:31:52.639 --> 02:32:03.760
and allow your mind to slow down. In turn releases

1173
02:32:04.120 --> 02:32:08.799
the tension any stresses that you had in your body.

1174
02:32:14.799 --> 02:32:18.680
It's almost as if the parts of your body just

1175
02:32:18.959 --> 02:32:30.639
open up, allowing the negativity out and at the same

1176
02:32:30.799 --> 02:32:42.079
time replacing that negativity with positive heathing energy which then

1177
02:32:42.239 --> 02:32:51.360
fills your body up and your mind to also starts

1178
02:32:51.559 --> 02:33:08.200
to appreciate those feelings of increasing confidence and almost uplifting

1179
02:33:08.600 --> 02:33:24.000
feeling positive healing, an energy that spreads through your body

1180
02:33:25.079 --> 02:33:35.120
like a wave of comfort. And all this comes from

1181
02:33:35.440 --> 02:33:47.000
just allowing yourself a few minutes, maybe half an hour,

1182
02:33:47.479 --> 02:33:52.520
however long you want it to be, just rest.

1183
02:33:57.600 --> 02:33:58.559
And allow.

1184
02:34:00.799 --> 02:34:10.760
Your mind and your body to almost reset itself to

1185
02:34:11.479 --> 02:34:27.079
the settings of comfort and relaxation, calmness, which allows more

1186
02:34:27.239 --> 02:34:40.600
room for feelings of pleasure and happiness to move around

1187
02:34:40.920 --> 02:34:49.120
your body and into your mind, almost as if your

1188
02:34:49.280 --> 02:34:59.719
mind and your body are sinking together, almost mirroring each

1189
02:35:00.120 --> 02:35:13.360
other with that growing positivity and calmness. And it feels nice,

1190
02:35:16.000 --> 02:35:21.879
really does feel nice to know that you are the

1191
02:35:22.000 --> 02:35:35.399
one that has allowed yourself to feel more comfort than

1192
02:35:35.520 --> 02:35:49.360
to experience more of this deep relaxation spreading throughout your body.

1193
02:35:56.399 --> 02:36:01.719
And as I focus on each each part of your body,

1194
02:36:04.120 --> 02:36:16.159
you can notice that that part becomes even more relaxed

1195
02:36:18.200 --> 02:36:27.040
just by focusing on it. It becomes even more calm

1196
02:36:27.280 --> 02:36:38.000
and comfortable just by focusing. And as I move down

1197
02:36:38.239 --> 02:36:45.680
your body, starting at your head, the parts that you

1198
02:36:45.760 --> 02:36:55.719
have already focused on or continue to relax deeply, and

1199
02:36:55.840 --> 02:37:01.879
those parts that have not yet focused on or just

1200
02:37:02.040 --> 02:37:14.319
automatically release any remain intention in anticipation of even more

1201
02:37:15.079 --> 02:37:26.840
comfort about to come. Now, I'm going to start by

1202
02:37:26.959 --> 02:37:34.559
focusing on your forehead. Just being aware of the feelings

1203
02:37:34.680 --> 02:37:44.959
of your forehead and any background sounds like mister Herbert

1204
02:37:45.040 --> 02:37:50.520
the opigeon can just allow you to feel even more relaxed.

1205
02:37:54.440 --> 02:38:00.559
Just means you're in the moment. This isn't this isn't

1206
02:38:00.600 --> 02:38:08.600
a sterile environment. This is the world. I live in

1207
02:38:08.680 --> 02:38:20.959
the countryside, so there's lots of nature sounds around. So

1208
02:38:21.040 --> 02:38:26.200
as you focus on your forehead, just notice how it

1209
02:38:26.479 --> 02:38:36.360
becomes even more relaxed as you focus only on my

1210
02:38:36.639 --> 02:38:46.159
voice and that part of your body. Moving down to

1211
02:38:46.319 --> 02:38:59.239
your eyes, focusing on your eyes, noticing how your eyelids

1212
02:38:59.479 --> 02:39:06.520
feel so heavy yet so light at the same time,

1213
02:39:09.920 --> 02:39:20.559
and all the muscles around your eyes relaxing completely. Moving

1214
02:39:20.680 --> 02:39:27.840
your focus down to your mouth, your lips, your tongue,

1215
02:39:29.079 --> 02:39:37.000
your teeth, and your gums, the hole of your mouth relaxing,

1216
02:39:40.520 --> 02:39:50.799
calm and loose as you focus now on your jaw,

1217
02:39:53.840 --> 02:39:58.239
not just a part of your jawney, your mouth and

1218
02:39:58.360 --> 02:40:02.600
your chin, but all the way up the size of

1219
02:40:02.719 --> 02:40:08.280
your face to your ears, the hole.

1220
02:40:08.719 --> 02:40:09.600
Of your jaw.

1221
02:40:12.040 --> 02:40:19.079
Feeling more relaxed.

1222
02:40:22.559 --> 02:40:23.280
And calm.

1223
02:40:31.479 --> 02:40:40.559
Focusing on your neck, the front of your neck and

1224
02:40:40.680 --> 02:40:53.680
your throat relaxing and loose and calm. The side of

1225
02:40:53.799 --> 02:40:59.040
your neck, the right and left side of your neck

1226
02:41:02.000 --> 02:41:17.840
relax and loose and calm. And now the back of

1227
02:41:17.959 --> 02:41:30.760
your neck, focusing on the back of your neck, letting

1228
02:41:31.000 --> 02:41:35.639
go of any tension that may have been there before,

1229
02:41:37.479 --> 02:41:51.639
and enjoying that sense of increasing comfort and release. Then

1230
02:41:51.760 --> 02:42:02.159
you can experience in the back of your neck, moving

1231
02:42:02.399 --> 02:42:09.000
down your back and moving either side of your spine

1232
02:42:10.280 --> 02:42:15.000
right from the top of your back all the way

1233
02:42:15.239 --> 02:42:27.879
down to the bottom of your back. Down it's your

1234
02:42:28.000 --> 02:42:38.559
lower back. As you move up and down your spine,

1235
02:42:40.680 --> 02:42:45.079
you can feel the muscles either side of your spine

1236
02:42:47.319 --> 02:43:01.879
relaxing even more. And as those muscles relax, that sense

1237
02:43:02.000 --> 02:43:12.440
of comfort starts to spread outwards from your spine into

1238
02:43:12.680 --> 02:43:19.280
both sides of your back, the top of your back,

1239
02:43:20.159 --> 02:43:26.399
the middle and your lower back. And as you scan

1240
02:43:28.120 --> 02:43:35.920
gently and slowly up and down your back, there's the

1241
02:43:36.079 --> 02:43:41.920
muscles in the top of your back relax and become looser.

1242
02:43:46.280 --> 02:43:52.280
The muscles in the middle of your back also seem

1243
02:43:52.360 --> 02:44:01.879
to just almost divide from each other, separating and almost melting,

1244
02:44:07.639 --> 02:44:13.639
And in your lower back there seems to be an

1245
02:44:13.719 --> 02:44:27.319
extra special feeling of comfort. The spreads into.

1246
02:44:27.159 --> 02:44:38.159
Your hips, sit down your lower back, into your hips, into.

1247
02:44:38.000 --> 02:44:44.760
The area where your cosix are, and into your buttocks,

1248
02:44:46.959 --> 02:44:53.559
and all those muscles that spread from your lower back

1249
02:44:56.040 --> 02:45:08.280
into your hip area start to melt, start to reading,

1250
02:45:09.479 --> 02:45:20.319
let go, and you know where about to focus on

1251
02:45:20.479 --> 02:45:29.520
your shoulders. Your back and your spine will continue to

1252
02:45:29.760 --> 02:45:48.040
let go, continue to relax so calmly, and as you

1253
02:45:48.239 --> 02:46:01.840
focus on your shoulders, you may notice they're already feeling loose,

1254
02:46:06.680 --> 02:46:08.399
They're already.

1255
02:46:10.760 --> 02:46:17.280
Feeding calm.

1256
02:46:23.360 --> 02:46:24.360
And fear.

1257
02:46:28.680 --> 02:46:37.000
Those muscles that move from your neck into your shoulders

1258
02:46:43.559 --> 02:47:12.920
feel so soft and gentle, so smooth and calm, And

1259
02:47:13.159 --> 02:47:26.000
the feeling in your shoulders seems to spread deep into

1260
02:47:26.079 --> 02:47:36.479
your shoulders, a sense of relaxation, not just traveling deeply

1261
02:47:36.879 --> 02:47:53.879
into your muscles, but also relaxing the bones and moving

1262
02:47:53.959 --> 02:48:02.239
all the way to underneath your arms, relaxing a whole

1263
02:48:02.440 --> 02:48:12.719
area between the tops of your shoulders and underneath your arms, healing.

1264
02:48:18.159 --> 02:48:18.840
You feel so.

1265
02:48:20.760 --> 02:48:32.239
Relaxed and comfortable in your shoulders, which sense that.

1266
02:48:34.479 --> 02:48:46.600
Deep healing message into your arms.

1267
02:48:53.280 --> 02:48:58.319
You may feel almost as if your arms are not.

1268
02:48:58.440 --> 02:49:17.159
Even there because the so relaxed, so deeply relaxed, so.

1269
02:49:21.399 --> 02:49:59.520
So calm, so not feeling, spreading all way down your arms,

1270
02:50:02.319 --> 02:50:23.760
two elbows, including your elbows circumfort spreads.

1271
02:50:27.719 --> 02:50:28.479
Your way.

1272
02:50:31.040 --> 02:50:49.920
Into rists, your forearms, and your wrists so heavy, yet

1273
02:50:50.159 --> 02:51:31.280
at the same time, sunlight and gentle f sin.

1274
02:51:33.440 --> 02:51:34.440
Now on.

1275
02:51:37.120 --> 02:52:01.200
Your hands, hands.

1276
02:52:07.040 --> 02:52:31.719
So peaceful in your hands. That's a sense of.

1277
02:52:35.200 --> 02:52:36.639
Real pace.

1278
02:52:48.719 --> 02:52:57.600
Just seems to feel so familiar.

1279
02:53:01.319 --> 02:53:05.200
Your hands relax deeply.

1280
02:53:14.360 --> 02:55:09.760
Else you thinks things side, you think it tips, moving

1281
02:55:10.120 --> 02:55:41.120
your attention from your body, so comfortable, marrying your focus

1282
02:55:43.079 --> 02:57:58.879
to legs like muscles in your thoughts, knees, I relaxed, cough, myculs,

Love that deep relaxation to spread your chest in storm,

1290
03:02:09.399 --> 03:02:28.440
let you go everything. So I'm gonna start counting down now,

1291
03:02:31.159 --> 03:02:40.079
from twenty down to one. You can imagine in a way,

1292
03:02:40.159 --> 03:02:46.239
it's like just walking down some steps and each step

1293
03:02:46.639 --> 03:02:52.840
or twenty steps, and each step represents a level of comfort.

1294
03:02:56.319 --> 03:03:11.680
Each step represents a deepening of that comfort, and the

1295
03:03:11.920 --> 03:03:18.000
fervies you walk down those steps, the deeper and more

1296
03:03:18.040 --> 03:03:59.840
relaxed you feel. So starting with number twenty twenty nine,

1297
03:04:34.440 --> 03:16:49.200
eight seven, ten, sixteen four se too wellhhhhhhh, nohhh eight sissie.

1298
03:16:33.319 --> 03:17:09.920
Si six.

1299
03:18:18.159 --> 03:19:37.840
Five four.

1300
03:21:04.000 --> 03:23:38.879
Us must us.

1301
03:24:05.639 --> 03:24:22.600
And now as you focus on your eyes, we're gonna

1302
03:24:22.680 --> 03:24:34.120
count down from ten down to one, focusing just on

1303
03:24:34.280 --> 03:24:45.200
your eyes, your eyelids, the muscles around your eyes, your

1304
03:24:45.280 --> 03:24:54.280
eye walls themselves, a whole area that makes up your eye.

1305
03:25:05.280 --> 03:25:13.399
And as we count down ten down to one, whilst

1306
03:25:13.680 --> 03:25:27.000
focus in on your eyes, you'll become twice is relaxed

1307
03:25:29.239 --> 03:25:42.280
with each number counting down that you may find the

1308
03:25:42.440 --> 03:25:48.920
all you want to do is just drift off to sleep.

1309
03:25:51.920 --> 03:25:58.520
And if that's what you want, then just allow yourself

1310
03:25:58.639 --> 03:26:13.280
to do that. Now, focusing on your eyes, I'm going

1311
03:26:13.399 --> 03:26:23.360
to begin counting down from ten down to one right now,

1312
03:26:31.879 --> 03:27:33.600
ten nine eight.

1313
03:28:18.920 --> 03:32:53.399
Seven four.

1314
03:32:55.559 --> 03:33:36.840
Three h.

1315
03:35:29.680 --> 03:35:51.000
One. So counting down from ten to one ten nine

1316
03:35:52.680 --> 03:36:20.399
eight seven six five four three two one, and maybe

1317
03:36:20.520 --> 03:36:23.440
that was a bit too quick in order to relax.

1318
03:36:24.680 --> 03:36:28.879
Maybe it's a bit too fast for you to notice

1319
03:36:29.159 --> 03:36:37.239
the calming of your body, maybe even a little bit

1320
03:36:37.280 --> 03:36:41.399
of pressure there, Like you're counting down from ten to one.

1321
03:36:41.479 --> 03:36:44.879
Would you expect me to do man, expect me to

1322
03:36:44.879 --> 03:36:48.920
just to go with floppy just because you're counting down.

1323
03:36:54.479 --> 03:36:57.799
We could try it again, but this time I'll go

1324
03:36:57.840 --> 03:37:04.879
a bit slower this time, as you focus on the

1325
03:37:05.040 --> 03:37:09.159
whole of your body before we focus on your legs.

1326
03:37:11.600 --> 03:37:20.799
Just notice how your body does start to feel more

1327
03:37:21.239 --> 03:37:40.200
relaxed with every number that I count down ten nine

1328
03:37:45.799 --> 03:39:15.159
at eight, seven, six, five, four, three one, And just

1329
03:39:15.360 --> 03:39:21.280
notice how how you feel generally, how your body feels.

1330
03:39:27.959 --> 03:39:36.239
It's not necessarily even about counting down from ten to one.

1331
03:39:39.200 --> 03:39:52.600
It's that space that you have, that space between being

1332
03:39:56.200 --> 03:40:08.000
active physically or men just sitting or lying down and

1333
03:40:08.479 --> 03:40:13.239
just being there, not doing anything, not saying anything, or

1334
03:40:14.079 --> 03:40:20.360
needing to think about anything. So that opens up a space,

1335
03:40:21.360 --> 03:40:30.479
you know, a bit of a space, a gap. And

1336
03:40:30.600 --> 03:40:35.159
the more I came down from ten to one, the

1337
03:40:35.239 --> 03:40:43.239
bigger that gap becomes. So there's that gap of calmness,

1338
03:40:44.639 --> 03:41:04.600
of comfort, relaxation. It's a nice feeling and those stresses

1339
03:41:05.120 --> 03:41:19.520
or discomforts physically or emotionally, moves them away. Allows you.

1340
03:41:22.239 --> 03:41:22.760
To just.

1341
03:41:25.719 --> 03:41:32.440
Slow down, someone to count again from ten down to one,

1342
03:41:32.879 --> 03:41:43.120
and notice that gap widening, the gap, And as it widens,

1343
03:41:43.200 --> 03:41:49.559
it's almost like the stress and attention falls into the gap.

1344
03:42:03.200 --> 03:42:07.600
Give you that distance, that space.

1345
03:42:09.559 --> 03:42:15.000
Now ten.

1346
03:42:19.360 --> 03:43:29.280
Nine, eight, seven, six, five four three.

1347
03:44:04.079 --> 03:44:04.319
One.

1348
03:44:15.840 --> 03:44:20.239
Now, how does your body feel.

1349
03:44:22.200 --> 03:44:22.399
Now?

1350
03:44:35.079 --> 03:44:50.319
Can you notice that the feeling calmer, the feeling more

1351
03:44:50.799 --> 03:45:18.200
relaxed as we now focus on your legs, just your legs.

1352
03:45:34.200 --> 03:45:54.319
We're just gonna start with focusing on your thighs. Of course,

1353
03:45:54.440 --> 03:45:59.319
it's not the most exciting thing to be doing because

1354
03:46:02.760 --> 03:46:05.440
I'm sure like most of your body is not a

1355
03:46:05.559 --> 03:46:17.959
lot going on right now. Just focusing on the whole

1356
03:46:18.079 --> 03:46:24.479
of your thighs, the tops of your thighs, the sides

1357
03:46:24.639 --> 03:46:31.600
of your thighs, the bottoms of your thighs, your outer thighs,

1358
03:46:31.719 --> 03:46:36.639
and your inner thighs. Basically the whole of your thigh

1359
03:46:36.760 --> 03:46:46.120
that leads into your hip and it goes down to your.

1360
03:46:47.959 --> 03:46:48.680
Knee joints.

1361
03:46:53.840 --> 03:47:01.719
Now, this is a big area. It's heavy area. It's

1362
03:47:01.879 --> 03:47:08.280
very strong, probably the strongest muscles in your body or

1363
03:47:08.360 --> 03:47:24.719
in your thighs. But I don't think we perhaps give

1364
03:47:24.879 --> 03:47:38.079
enough attention to our thighs. Perhaps we don't acknowledge how

1365
03:47:38.200 --> 03:48:00.120
important our thighs are to our lives, how much they

1366
03:48:00.200 --> 03:48:13.600
actually do for us all through our lives. And it

1367
03:48:13.840 --> 03:48:19.360
may seem to sound really weird, but I think that

1368
03:48:19.559 --> 03:48:27.479
all of our body parts, especially our thighs, needs some TLC,

1369
03:48:30.799 --> 03:48:44.000
a bit of love shown, a bit of acknowledgement, thank you,

1370
03:48:47.159 --> 03:48:59.639
gratitude for our thighs do for us. And I know

1371
03:48:59.760 --> 03:49:05.879
this may sound a bit strange. Maybe you think, why

1372
03:49:05.959 --> 03:49:09.120
am I Surely I should be out in the garden

1373
03:49:09.319 --> 03:49:17.520
hugging a tree or something. Well, it's hard to set

1374
03:49:17.559 --> 03:49:20.719
a microphone up on a tree. That's why I'm doing

1375
03:49:20.799 --> 03:49:23.399
this indoors. Otherwise I wouldn't be outside hugging a tree.

1376
03:49:24.840 --> 03:49:26.520
I can't see the television.

1377
03:49:26.079 --> 03:49:26.559
From the tree.

1378
03:49:33.280 --> 03:49:37.520
If you move down to your knees gain such an

1379
03:49:37.639 --> 03:49:47.000
important part. And I think we don't necessarily I want

1380
03:49:47.000 --> 03:49:54.440
to speak for myself here. I don't necessarily appreciate all

1381
03:49:54.520 --> 03:49:59.479
that my knees do for me until I have a

1382
03:49:59.559 --> 03:50:04.680
problem with my knee. It's occasionally if I ever maybe

1383
03:50:04.719 --> 03:50:10.319
I'll bash it, or it's aching for some reason. It's

1384
03:50:10.559 --> 03:50:16.319
then that I realize how much it does. You know,

1385
03:50:16.399 --> 03:50:22.360
the benefit of being able to use my legs without

1386
03:50:24.120 --> 03:50:31.360
any kind of physical discomfort is a beautiful thing that's

1387
03:50:31.600 --> 03:50:40.000
possibly not appreciated until it's temporarily removed. You know, that's comfort.

1388
03:50:44.079 --> 03:50:48.719
But as you focus on your knees, regardless of how

1389
03:50:48.760 --> 03:50:56.280
your knees feel, you can have that sense of gratitude

1390
03:50:57.799 --> 03:51:00.399
and love to your knees for all that they do

1391
03:51:00.600 --> 03:51:13.600
for you, And you can still have that attention on

1392
03:51:13.719 --> 03:51:19.920
your thighs and maybe notice how your thighs feel. Maybe

1393
03:51:20.239 --> 03:51:37.639
you've noticed that they are relaxing more deeply as you

1394
03:51:37.799 --> 03:51:43.000
focus now on the bottoms of your legs, your shins,

1395
03:51:43.879 --> 03:51:50.360
and your calf muscles, the bones between your knees and

1396
03:51:50.479 --> 03:52:03.680
your feet, incorporating of course, your ankles so important. You know,

1397
03:52:03.760 --> 03:52:08.520
anyone that's had even like the slightest sprain of an

1398
03:52:08.559 --> 03:52:16.680
ankle knows how how much we take our ankles for granted.

1399
03:52:22.559 --> 03:52:24.559
And it's kind of strange in a way when you

1400
03:52:24.680 --> 03:52:30.239
think that. You know, logically, our wrists are a lot

1401
03:52:30.399 --> 03:52:35.239
thinner than the rest of our arms, which is okay.

1402
03:52:35.360 --> 03:52:39.239
It doesn't can't see any problem with that because we're

1403
03:52:39.319 --> 03:52:47.120
just picking stuff up. Our ankles so much thinner than

1404
03:52:47.159 --> 03:52:56.239
the rest of our legs, and from a physics perspective

1405
03:52:57.520 --> 03:53:01.680
or logical even it doesn't really make sense that all

1406
03:53:01.799 --> 03:53:10.520
this weight would ultimately be resting on your ankles then

1407
03:53:10.639 --> 03:53:23.799
leading to your feet, that thin area, thin bone. Yeah,

1408
03:53:23.879 --> 03:53:29.559
it does so much great work. Supports us, supports our

1409
03:53:29.680 --> 03:53:41.520
body for a lifetime, helps us to balance, helps you

1410
03:53:41.719 --> 03:53:55.000
to get around and be mobile. And there's the calf muscles.

1411
03:53:55.040 --> 03:54:02.639
Of course, when I was younger, I couldn't see the

1412
03:54:02.719 --> 03:54:09.040
pointing calf muscles. Didn't seem to do anything. Okay, if

1413
03:54:09.079 --> 03:54:12.639
I walked around on tiptoes, then my calf muscles get

1414
03:54:12.719 --> 03:54:16.440
some work. But of course that's not true. The calf

1415
03:54:16.559 --> 03:54:26.200
muscles are being used whenever we use the legs and

1416
03:54:26.319 --> 03:54:38.840
your shins there to protect your lower legs, shaped in

1417
03:54:38.959 --> 03:54:51.479
a way almost as a protector for the bone, leading

1418
03:54:52.879 --> 03:55:03.280
of course to your ankles and your feet. But we're

1419
03:55:03.280 --> 03:55:05.200
not going to focus on your feet. We're just going

1420
03:55:05.280 --> 03:55:11.520
to focus on the legs. And I realize that now

1421
03:55:11.600 --> 03:55:16.159
that I've mentioned your feet, you'll probably focus on them anyway,

1422
03:55:16.719 --> 03:55:19.280
So maybe I should focus on your feet a little bit.

1423
03:55:23.319 --> 03:55:27.719
You can have them in your awareness the same as

1424
03:55:27.799 --> 03:55:32.159
you have your thighs in your awareness. Even though we

1425
03:55:32.280 --> 03:55:38.200
haven't been focusing on your thighs a few minutes, let

1426
03:55:38.280 --> 03:55:49.159
me focusing on your ankles. There's still that sensation of

1427
03:55:52.399 --> 03:56:05.159
comfort in your thighs, and there's that movement of energy

1428
03:56:07.200 --> 03:56:14.239
because the thighs hold lots of different sensations. Of course,

1429
03:56:14.319 --> 03:56:19.079
there's the muscles, the big strong muscles that we have

1430
03:56:19.280 --> 03:56:32.600
in our thighs, but the skin on the outside of

1431
03:56:32.719 --> 03:56:38.000
the thighs, as in the outside of all of our body,

1432
03:56:38.799 --> 03:56:50.399
can be very sensitive, sensitive to the touch, sensitive to temperature,

1433
03:56:56.959 --> 03:57:04.479
and inside your thighs the bones, there's the muscle, there's

1434
03:57:04.520 --> 03:57:09.319
the blood, vessels, the ar trees, to all this stuff

1435
03:57:09.440 --> 03:57:18.120
that's inside your thighs. And I guess sometimes it'd be

1436
03:57:18.280 --> 03:57:22.399
nice if you could actually put your fingers inside your

1437
03:57:22.479 --> 03:57:28.680
thighs and a message, so you can message on the outside,

1438
03:57:28.840 --> 03:57:31.799
of course, but to be able to get deep into

1439
03:57:31.920 --> 03:57:36.719
the muscles and to be able to just message inside

1440
03:57:36.799 --> 03:57:43.799
your thighs, message in the bones of your leg, message

1441
03:57:43.879 --> 03:57:53.120
in all the veins, and just gently heathing your thighs

1442
03:57:57.040 --> 03:58:02.239
and you could move down message and inside your knees

1443
03:58:03.719 --> 03:58:10.559
just message in those bones, but with healing fingertips, spreading

1444
03:58:10.639 --> 03:58:16.360
that healing energy deep into the choice of your knees.

1445
03:58:21.799 --> 03:58:25.520
Of course, there's the back of your your knee and

1446
03:58:25.600 --> 03:58:31.639
the inside crease where your knee is. It's a very

1447
03:58:31.840 --> 03:58:37.719
sensitive area. It feels very nice when you stroke it.

1448
03:58:39.120 --> 03:58:42.479
That might be because it's an area that's not really

1449
03:58:42.680 --> 03:58:50.120
touched very often. It's almost like a hidden part, that crease.

1450
03:58:51.920 --> 03:58:52.639
In your legs.

1451
03:58:52.719 --> 03:59:00.200
It's almost like a part that has a sensitivity just

1452
03:59:00.239 --> 03:59:11.200
a little bit different. Of course, it's protected by your legs,

1453
03:59:18.559 --> 03:59:22.799
so you can imagine putting your fingers into that crease

1454
03:59:23.680 --> 03:59:32.959
in your legs, folding between your legs, you can just

1455
03:59:33.159 --> 03:59:40.680
message with your fingertips. Imagine your fingertips going inside message

1456
03:59:40.760 --> 03:59:48.680
in the muscle or tissue. You can of course field

1457
03:59:48.719 --> 04:00:02.440
the bones of your knees, heading through your fingertips, and

1458
04:00:02.520 --> 04:00:08.120
then as you go down to your calf muscles, and

1459
04:00:08.280 --> 04:00:10.920
that's the part. I'd like to be able to really

1460
04:00:11.799 --> 04:00:18.120
put my fingertips deep inside my calf muscles, massage in

1461
04:00:18.559 --> 04:00:24.200
every single tissue of that muscle.

1462
04:00:25.319 --> 04:00:33.920
Healing every part, and then doing.

1463
04:00:33.799 --> 04:00:41.239
The same for my shins, massage in and generally stroking

1464
04:00:41.440 --> 04:00:47.799
the bones, generally stroking them, healing in a loving way

1465
04:00:49.079 --> 04:00:55.479
because they deserve to be treated. There's the precious bones

1466
04:00:55.559 --> 04:01:00.239
that they are, because their legs are so precious as

1467
04:01:00.280 --> 04:01:04.959
in all the other parts of our body, the more

1468
04:01:05.040 --> 04:01:19.159
precious of any jure on the planet. When you start

1469
04:01:19.319 --> 04:01:31.200
to think about your legs in this way, it can

1470
04:01:31.479 --> 04:01:40.959
change your perspective. It might sound a bit a bit

1471
04:01:41.200 --> 04:01:46.680
silly to start with the idea of having love for

1472
04:01:46.799 --> 04:01:56.120
your legs, showing appreciation for your thighs, wanting to be

1473
04:01:56.200 --> 04:02:02.719
able to put your hands in your thighs the message

1474
04:02:03.559 --> 04:02:09.079
the muscles and the bones, and to get your fingers

1475
04:02:09.399 --> 04:02:19.159
deep in there, releasing all tension, just to show how

1476
04:02:19.280 --> 04:02:26.680
much you care about your legs, how much you care

1477
04:02:27.040 --> 04:02:35.040
for what your legs do for you regularly, your knees,

1478
04:02:35.319 --> 04:02:48.120
your calves, your ankles, the strength of your ankles, considering

1479
04:02:48.360 --> 04:02:52.840
how thin they are compared to the rest of your legs,

1480
04:02:53.000 --> 04:03:06.639
especially your thighs. Yeah, this so strong, so flexible, absolutely

1481
04:03:06.959 --> 04:03:18.760
amazing things. Your ankles are truly a gift because of

1482
04:03:18.840 --> 04:03:30.120
what they do for you supporting all that weight. Regardless

1483
04:03:30.200 --> 04:03:34.159
of how what weight you are, even if you only

1484
04:03:34.200 --> 04:03:39.000
eat ate stone, there's still a lot of weight for

1485
04:03:39.120 --> 04:03:45.840
these little ankles. Now I'm a lot heavier than eight

1486
04:03:45.920 --> 04:03:56.559
stone double. Don get my ankles support my body all

1487
04:03:56.600 --> 04:04:03.040
the time, or they do give off a sigh of

1488
04:04:03.159 --> 04:04:09.000
relief when I sit down. That's my whole legs, though

1489
04:04:12.559 --> 04:04:39.840
my feet feel also go my toes clap happy. Your

1490
04:04:40.000 --> 04:04:49.319
legs really are amazing. I don't know that talking about

1491
04:04:49.840 --> 04:04:55.680
talking about your legs is probably possibly among the most

1492
04:04:56.600 --> 04:05:04.159
most boring things I've ever heard anyone say. Possibly you're

1493
04:05:04.239 --> 04:05:11.079
boring or not. Everything I said is true. Your legs

1494
04:05:11.719 --> 04:05:31.760
are amazing. Your legs deserve not just respect, they deserve

1495
04:05:31.840 --> 04:05:32.959
to relax.

1496
04:05:34.319 --> 04:05:34.680
Deeply.

1497
04:05:42.000 --> 04:05:45.319
They deserve to take some time out of the day

1498
04:05:47.520 --> 04:05:49.719
to just let go completely.

1499
04:06:07.639 --> 04:06:08.639
Your legs.

1500
04:06:13.760 --> 04:06:27.000
Really can relax. And because the legs are so such

1501
04:06:27.040 --> 04:06:31.559
a most you know, very important part of your body.

1502
04:06:32.840 --> 04:06:35.440
When you relax your legs, the rest of your body

1503
04:06:36.120 --> 04:06:54.799
also naturally follows in that journey of comfort. I I

1504
04:06:55.000 --> 04:06:59.799
feel it in my hips. My hips feel really those

1505
04:07:03.200 --> 04:07:07.799
and also my lower back as well. My lower back

1506
04:07:08.040 --> 04:07:13.559
really feels it feels stretched, even though I'm just sitting

1507
04:07:13.639 --> 04:07:19.639
in a chair and there's no stretching. As far as

1508
04:07:19.680 --> 04:07:22.760
I'm aware that I'm doing it's almost as if the

1509
04:07:22.879 --> 04:07:26.799
muscles are just relaxed so much that there is a

1510
04:07:27.000 --> 04:07:51.639
natural stretch as the tension has reduced a lot. And

1511
04:07:51.760 --> 04:07:55.120
I'm now going to count down from ten down to one.

1512
04:08:00.120 --> 04:08:29.159
Continue to fill wonderfully relaxed ten nine, eight, seven, six, five.

1513
04:08:33.479 --> 04:08:37.600
Four three.

1514
04:08:41.399 --> 04:09:02.200
Two one. Relax. So I'm just going to count down

1515
04:09:03.719 --> 04:09:08.440
from five down to one, and as a countdown, if

1516
04:09:08.440 --> 04:09:15.520
you just focus on the numbers, just the numbers counting down,

1517
04:09:16.600 --> 04:09:25.719
and notice how you feel in this moment as you

1518
04:09:25.879 --> 04:09:33.399
hear the numbers counting down, knowing that those numbers counting

1519
04:09:33.479 --> 04:09:43.639
down represent you feeling calmer, not just in your body,

1520
04:09:43.799 --> 04:09:52.159
but also relax in your mind. Just notice how you feel.

1521
04:09:53.040 --> 04:09:58.959
There's nothing to do, there's nothing to say, there's nothing

1522
04:09:59.079 --> 04:10:36.079
to think about. Starting with number five, four three two.

1523
04:10:41.879 --> 04:10:42.120
One.

1524
04:10:51.559 --> 04:11:03.399
Now, did you notice the gradual letting go of the

1525
04:11:03.559 --> 04:11:11.200
tension in your body. You may also begin to notice

1526
04:11:11.319 --> 04:11:18.520
and be aware of how your mind is starting to

1527
04:11:19.879 --> 04:11:26.479
slow down. This is just a natural thing that happens.

1528
04:11:29.079 --> 04:11:34.280
It's not really a special procedure. It's just natural because

1529
04:11:34.360 --> 04:11:40.239
as your body relaxes, your mind also starts to relax.

1530
04:11:41.840 --> 04:11:45.520
And the more your mind relaxes the more your body relaxes.

1531
04:11:45.639 --> 04:11:56.120
It's just a continuous circle of relaxation. And is that

1532
04:11:57.399 --> 04:12:05.440
calmness that comes from relative quietness. You know, even if

1533
04:12:05.440 --> 04:12:13.000
there's background sounds either your side online is still going

1534
04:12:13.120 --> 04:12:18.159
to be quite calm. You know, you haven't got the

1535
04:12:18.280 --> 04:12:23.440
television on, there's no music in the background, unless you're

1536
04:12:23.479 --> 04:12:31.000
listening to the recorded with music. Of course, you're very

1537
04:12:31.239 --> 04:12:33.079
likely not going to be sitting in a room with

1538
04:12:33.200 --> 04:12:38.000
other people. Of course you might be, but generally it's

1539
04:12:38.680 --> 04:12:40.920
more ideal if you can do this on your own,

1540
04:12:42.639 --> 04:12:52.680
so no distractions, and when you stop thinking about stuff,

1541
04:12:59.280 --> 04:13:09.559
relaxation automatically arises. The sense of comfort starts to grow,

1542
04:13:14.079 --> 04:13:20.760
and without trying to build it up into something fantastical

1543
04:13:21.159 --> 04:13:32.879
or something magical, this is just a natural process, something

1544
04:13:33.040 --> 04:13:43.200
that's easy to accomplish. In fact, it's almost you know,

1545
04:13:43.319 --> 04:13:50.200
the sense of relaxing completely happens really when you put

1546
04:13:50.360 --> 04:13:54.239
no effort into it. It's not something that you can

1547
04:13:54.360 --> 04:14:05.959
really force. It's something that happens naturally. And part of

1548
04:14:06.399 --> 04:14:16.639
the process of this recording and others is simply two

1549
04:14:18.200 --> 04:14:28.559
allow you to take advantage of this space, this time,

1550
04:14:31.600 --> 04:14:42.479
to just let go, to just be here. To be

1551
04:14:43.120 --> 04:14:56.520
in tune with how you feel, yet with the intention

1552
04:14:58.760 --> 04:15:10.239
of wanting to relax deeply, that maybe even to fall asleep,

1553
04:15:11.399 --> 04:15:16.559
depending on what it is that you wish for yourself

1554
04:15:18.319 --> 04:15:33.399
in this moment. As we know, relaxing is the majority

1555
04:15:34.639 --> 04:15:39.079
of the process of falling asleep. The actual falling asleep

1556
04:15:39.159 --> 04:15:45.959
part is the tiny bit at the end. The deeper

1557
04:15:47.280 --> 04:16:09.559
relaxed you become, the easier you find yourself drift. But

1558
04:16:09.680 --> 04:16:16.239
you can also, if you choose, stay focused on my

1559
04:16:16.440 --> 04:16:45.360
voice and really enjoy the process, gradually relaxing each muscle

1560
04:16:50.000 --> 04:17:16.840
in your body effortlessly and just observing the sensation of

1561
04:17:17.120 --> 04:17:32.760
letting go completely. This time, I'm going to count from

1562
04:17:32.959 --> 04:17:43.159
six down to one, and you can notice your mind

1563
04:17:45.799 --> 04:17:59.159
calming down more with each number that you hear me say, naturally,

1564
04:18:00.280 --> 04:19:35.079
feeling calm and sier and peaceful sex five four, three.

1565
04:20:12.799 --> 04:20:58.639
Two fourhhh.

1566
04:21:02.920 --> 04:21:12.520
Being aware of how your mind has slowed right down,

1567
04:21:15.760 --> 04:21:39.159
sinking deeply into relaxation. And as you focus on your mind,

1568
04:21:39.440 --> 04:21:49.399
you may notice that there are some thoughts still there,

1569
04:21:52.000 --> 04:22:01.520
maybe some stubborn thoughts that for some reason perhaps need

1570
04:22:01.600 --> 04:22:02.239
your attention.

1571
04:22:09.239 --> 04:22:10.520
So what you can do is.

1572
04:22:16.040 --> 04:22:28.559
Send love to those thoughts. Sprinkle those thoughts with love,

1573
04:22:30.280 --> 04:22:34.520
my little petals from a flower. Just sprinkle it over them,

1574
04:22:35.959 --> 04:22:43.079
petals feel good love towards those thoughts. To let those

1575
04:22:43.319 --> 04:22:49.760
thoughts know that you're not abandon the number. You just

1576
04:22:50.239 --> 04:23:00.319
need them. You require them to just calm down, slow down,

1577
04:23:02.600 --> 04:23:17.479
quiet down for now, so as you focus on those

1578
04:23:18.239 --> 04:23:23.159
remaining thoughts. As we count down this time from seven

1579
04:23:24.040 --> 04:23:32.719
down to one. With each number, just imagine sprinkling those

1580
04:23:32.959 --> 04:23:52.399
flower petals of love, kindness, gratitude over those thoughts, which

1581
04:23:52.440 --> 04:23:58.440
will allow them to just not away and relax deeply.

1582
04:24:02.600 --> 04:24:17.040
With every number, those thoughts would become more and more relaxed.

1583
04:24:22.600 --> 04:26:53.879
Starting with number seven, six, five, four, three one. I'll

1584
04:26:53.959 --> 04:27:11.399
let you now notice relaxed your feeling in your body.

1585
04:27:19.799 --> 04:27:33.000
We're going to focus on your hands, because the more

1586
04:27:33.120 --> 04:27:40.159
relaxed your hands are, the more relaxed your body and

1587
04:27:40.440 --> 04:28:02.000
mind are. You focus on your head, hands and your fingers.

1588
04:28:07.559 --> 04:28:12.280
There's nothing needed to be done. There's no clinching of

1589
04:28:12.600 --> 04:28:16.920
fists or dents in the fingers or anything like that.

1590
04:28:24.399 --> 04:28:38.600
It's just noticing and focusing on your hands, noticing how

1591
04:28:38.719 --> 04:29:03.399
they feel. Because the more relaxed your hands feel, the

1592
04:29:03.680 --> 04:29:06.239
calmer your mind feels.

1593
04:29:07.760 --> 04:29:09.479
And all.

1594
04:29:11.479 --> 04:29:16.639
The comforts you feel throughout your body.

1595
04:29:25.360 --> 04:29:28.040
May have.

1596
04:29:32.079 --> 04:30:15.159
Already noticed your mind is starting to drift, wixing just

1597
04:30:15.399 --> 04:30:24.479
on your hands and fingers, allowing.

1598
04:30:24.479 --> 04:30:26.399
Them cheap.

1599
04:30:28.360 --> 04:30:39.760
Experience, a real deepening of that relaxation in your hands

1600
04:30:39.879 --> 04:31:05.959
and fingers, more and more relaxed. With each number from

1601
04:31:06.159 --> 04:31:19.520
eight down to one. You can almost feel the healing

1602
04:31:20.959 --> 04:31:32.840
and relaxing energy spreading into your hands and fingers, becoming

1603
04:31:38.360 --> 04:31:56.559
more relaxing with each number you hear, going down eight

1604
04:31:57.360 --> 04:32:15.040
down to one, drifting, drifting again, Sponsored Louise.

1605
04:32:19.000 --> 04:32:19.040
No.

1606
04:32:26.639 --> 04:36:21.000
Eight seven three, just being here now, nothing to think about,

1607
04:36:22.759 --> 04:36:34.159
nothing to do, nothing to say, and everything just feels calmer.

1608
04:36:38.919 --> 04:36:46.680
This is your natural state of being. This is how

1609
04:36:46.799 --> 04:36:53.400
you just normally feel when you take away all that

1610
04:36:53.840 --> 04:36:55.200
other stuff.

1611
04:36:57.240 --> 04:36:58.119
That we add.

1612
04:37:00.279 --> 04:37:11.240
Liked, stress and worry in and over thinking, anxiety, tension,

1613
04:37:15.520 --> 04:37:22.479
just generally thinking about stuff. We take that away, which

1614
04:37:22.560 --> 04:37:31.759
is what we do. What we do now. You left

1615
04:37:31.880 --> 04:37:42.759
with a real sense of peacefulness, which comes to you

1616
04:37:43.040 --> 04:37:57.000
very quickly, because ultimately it's just a feeling, a feeling

1617
04:37:58.000 --> 04:38:05.200
and comfort. It's almost as if you've got inside yourself

1618
04:38:05.319 --> 04:38:16.919
and you've found a special place where everything is peaceful,

1619
04:38:19.880 --> 04:38:25.240
a place where you can film relaxed and your natural

1620
04:38:27.400 --> 04:38:33.840
sense of comfort, a place where you can be here

1621
04:38:38.439 --> 04:38:45.439
where you can accept yourself and who you are, the

1622
04:38:45.560 --> 04:38:51.959
place where you're not trying to please anybody else, in

1623
04:38:56.080 --> 04:39:04.639
a place where you can actually not just love yourself,

1624
04:39:04.759 --> 04:39:10.200
but in some ways more importantly, you can like yourself,

1625
04:39:12.720 --> 04:39:30.000
appreciate who you are. That sense of gratitude it's in

1626
04:39:30.119 --> 04:39:41.080
the air way around you. That's also a place where

1627
04:39:41.319 --> 04:39:51.639
you can actually feel the healing energy soaking into your body.

1628
04:39:58.319 --> 04:40:10.639
Healing energy soaking into your body. That healing energy spreads

1629
04:40:11.639 --> 04:40:22.799
through your veins, traveling to each every single part of

1630
04:40:22.959 --> 04:40:32.759
your body, and you start to realize that actually that

1631
04:40:33.040 --> 04:40:41.799
healing energy, it's not just entered into your brain, it's

1632
04:40:41.880 --> 04:40:53.840
become part of your brain, and the spinal fluid is

1633
04:40:53.959 --> 04:41:04.880
now mixed with healing energy, not just allowing you to

1634
04:41:05.240 --> 04:41:12.840
feel so much more relaxed and healthy in this moment,

1635
04:41:17.319 --> 04:41:26.759
but also you start to realize that actually what's happening

1636
04:41:27.000 --> 04:41:37.599
now without healing, relaxing energy spreading through your body is

1637
04:41:37.799 --> 04:41:48.560
actually changing your life. It's actually changing the way you're

1638
04:41:48.680 --> 04:41:55.119
going to feel not just now, but tomorrow and the

1639
04:41:55.240 --> 04:42:05.000
next day, as your health improves, not just your physical health,

1640
04:42:05.119 --> 04:42:12.479
but your mental health. Things that used to bother you

1641
04:42:12.680 --> 04:42:19.799
in the past, for some reason, no longer have the

1642
04:42:19.959 --> 04:42:28.880
effect that they used to because something has changed deep

1643
04:42:29.360 --> 04:42:39.959
within you. Maybe things that used to cause you to

1644
04:42:40.119 --> 04:42:52.439
feel anger no longer have that power to control you

1645
04:42:54.959 --> 04:43:01.159
the way they seem to be able to before. As

1646
04:43:01.360 --> 04:43:12.880
you realize that you're the one who decides what affects you,

1647
04:43:16.560 --> 04:43:25.360
you're the one who decides to feel relaxed and calm

1648
04:43:26.959 --> 04:43:42.319
when you choose to enjoy noticing these natural developments of

1649
04:43:42.639 --> 04:43:54.200
healing continuing to grow and improve your life day by day,

1650
04:44:00.119 --> 04:44:08.319
including of course, your ability to relax so much easier

1651
04:44:13.279 --> 04:44:22.840
than sleeping. It's the most natural thing in the world

1652
04:44:24.319 --> 04:44:32.639
to you, because falling asleep is something that you've done

1653
04:44:35.680 --> 04:44:43.360
so many times in your life, and you know that

1654
04:44:43.560 --> 04:44:48.799
you were born, as we all were, with the ability

1655
04:44:50.400 --> 04:45:03.720
to fall asleep naturally. We're born with that ability to

1656
04:45:04.159 --> 04:45:18.159
just drift off into a deep, healing sleep. Even when

1657
04:45:18.279 --> 04:45:22.959
we're kids, sometimes will fall asleep and we don't even

1658
04:45:23.040 --> 04:45:29.000
want to try to think of stay awake. Maybe it's

1659
04:45:29.159 --> 04:45:33.560
a birthday in the morning, or it's Christmas or holiday

1660
04:45:33.759 --> 04:45:36.200
or something we look forward to. We don't want to

1661
04:45:36.200 --> 04:45:41.319
go to sleep, but the more we want to stay awake,

1662
04:45:43.560 --> 04:45:50.560
the more we just start to drift. And the more

1663
04:45:51.279 --> 04:45:55.040
you fight to drifting, or try to stop yourself and

1664
04:45:55.240 --> 04:46:08.720
drift in asleep, the deeper and stronger drifting becomes. Because

1665
04:46:08.759 --> 04:46:14.200
we're born not just with the need to relax deeply

1666
04:46:15.919 --> 04:46:25.759
and to naturally fall asleep, but it's our birthright, it's

1667
04:46:25.880 --> 04:46:36.360
part of our DNA. And sometimes as we get older

1668
04:46:36.479 --> 04:46:47.880
in life, perhaps at times we have forgotten that relaxing

1669
04:46:49.200 --> 04:47:03.639
completely is not only a wonderfully pleasant experience, it's also

1670
04:47:04.000 --> 04:47:23.479
really easy. It's very very easy to let go, because

1671
04:47:23.520 --> 04:47:24.240
that's all it is.

1672
04:47:24.439 --> 04:47:24.919
It is just.

1673
04:47:28.439 --> 04:47:39.840
Deciding to let go. And when you press the play

1674
04:47:39.959 --> 04:47:50.200
button on my recordings, you have given permission for my

1675
04:47:50.439 --> 04:47:58.560
voice to elect you. When you press that play button,

1676
04:47:59.560 --> 04:48:10.520
you even me permission for my words to effect you

1677
04:48:11.200 --> 04:48:27.680
in a positive, only a positive way, opening up your

1678
04:48:27.840 --> 04:48:50.560
mind to useful and healing suggestions that can have such

1679
04:48:50.599 --> 04:49:02.720
an amazing effect on how you feel right now, as

1680
04:49:02.840 --> 04:49:13.720
well as those changes that continue long after the recording ends,

1681
04:49:15.479 --> 04:49:24.599
those changes within you that continue to flourish and grow,

1682
04:49:29.119 --> 04:49:42.799
transforming your life in a positive beautiful way allowing you

1683
04:49:43.400 --> 04:49:49.639
to move forward in your life in the direction that

1684
04:49:50.000 --> 04:50:07.159
you choose for yourself. And this feeling, this feeling that

1685
04:50:07.360 --> 04:50:23.520
you can experience of safety, comfort, calmness just feels so nice,

1686
04:50:33.119 --> 04:50:47.319
such a healthy place to be, and that positivity prows

1687
04:50:48.599 --> 04:51:06.159
within you each and every day. Moving forward, you're going

1688
04:51:06.319 --> 04:51:17.479
to find that you're more relaxed physically and in your mind.

1689
04:51:18.880 --> 04:51:27.240
It's more relaxed. And it's not that you're thinking slower.

1690
04:51:29.520 --> 04:51:33.159
It's just that your mind will be less clogged up

1691
04:51:34.240 --> 04:51:47.560
with unnecessary negativity because from now on, your mind rejects negativity.

1692
04:51:51.560 --> 04:51:59.000
From now on, you're going to start noticing when negativity

1693
04:51:59.159 --> 04:52:13.680
arises and you can just say stop, stop and then

1694
04:52:13.840 --> 04:52:32.759
negativity will turn around and leave you alone. Stop and

1695
04:52:32.919 --> 04:52:48.040
then negativity would disappear. And that you notice that you

1696
04:52:49.439 --> 04:53:02.639
feel way more relaxed than you probably expected. You can

1697
04:53:02.959 --> 04:53:12.040
now congratulate yourself because you are the person that has

1698
04:53:12.240 --> 04:53:18.400
done this. You are the one that has opened your

1699
04:53:18.599 --> 04:53:27.799
mind up to the simple facts. You can feel more

1700
04:53:27.919 --> 04:53:37.959
relaxed in your body and in your mind. You've opened

1701
04:53:38.159 --> 04:53:43.319
your mind up to the birthright of being.

1702
04:53:43.159 --> 04:53:43.919
Able to just.

1703
04:53:46.599 --> 04:54:01.439
Fall asleep easily when you choose and that's a nice feeling.

1704
04:54:03.040 --> 04:54:13.119
Don't you think it feels nice? Doesn't it? To feel calm?

1705
04:54:14.799 --> 04:54:19.400
All that healing energy is spreading through your body in

1706
04:54:19.520 --> 04:54:35.560
your mind to spend time a special place where negativity

1707
04:54:37.040 --> 04:54:49.959
can no longer enter. Negativity is banned. It's bad, it's

1708
04:54:50.040 --> 04:54:56.680
not allowed entry. Doesn't it doesn't. This doesn't deserve to

1709
04:54:56.799 --> 04:55:05.919
be here, doesn't belong here. Negativity has no place in

1710
04:55:06.119 --> 04:55:22.680
your life, which makes room feel more comfort, more healing,

1711
04:55:24.799 --> 04:55:52.080
more relaxation, more peace. It feels nice, doesn't it? Just

1712
04:55:55.799 --> 04:56:16.360
let go with everything. I'm gonna count down now from

1713
04:56:17.159 --> 04:56:26.680
twenty down to one. You can continue to relax. If

1714
04:56:26.759 --> 04:56:38.639
you choose, you can drift to sleep with every number

1715
04:56:41.119 --> 04:56:49.919
you hear me say, you can fill twice as relaxed.

1716
04:56:52.959 --> 04:57:04.200
Or if you choose, you can fill twice sleeping now

1717
04:57:09.599 --> 04:58:44.000
twenty nineteen, eighteen, seventeen, sixteen, fifteen, four, ten, thirty two, eleven, ten, nine,

1718
04:58:51.919 --> 04:59:09.799
eight h six.

1719
04:59:17.840 --> 04:59:25.520
Five Oh.

1720
04:59:38.959 --> 05:00:03.680
Yeah. Or this is your time to just take a break,

1721
05:00:08.319 --> 05:00:19.360
your time to relax, to allow your mind to slow down,

1722
05:00:28.040 --> 05:00:42.119
to give yourself permission to take a break from everything.

1723
05:00:46.959 --> 05:00:47.119
En you.

1724
05:00:47.159 --> 05:00:54.360
You're the only person that can make that decision. You're

1725
05:00:54.400 --> 05:01:03.000
the only person that can actually tell your mind just relax,

1726
05:01:11.119 --> 05:01:26.720
to just take some time off so that you can

1727
05:01:27.479 --> 05:01:32.919
focus on your body, getting in touch with how you

1728
05:01:33.080 --> 05:01:50.080
feel physically, and in the process of this body scared

1729
05:01:50.360 --> 05:02:00.799
where you focus on different parts of your body, those

1730
05:02:01.119 --> 05:02:08.279
parts that you focus on and observe. Even though you're

1731
05:02:08.360 --> 05:02:17.200
not purposely requesting for those parts of your body to relax,

1732
05:02:19.439 --> 05:02:25.799
it's kind of expected. You expect when you listen to

1733
05:02:25.959 --> 05:02:38.599
my voice to feel more relaxed naturally, because when you're

1734
05:02:38.680 --> 05:02:48.880
listening to me, your attention is focused on my words,

1735
05:02:53.880 --> 05:03:04.759
and as my words guide you to focus on those

1736
05:03:05.000 --> 05:03:23.119
parts of your body, your focus increases, which actually calms

1737
05:03:23.279 --> 05:03:43.360
your mind. And when your mind calms down, your body relaxes.

1738
05:03:50.880 --> 05:04:12.840
And when your body calms down, your mind relaxes. And

1739
05:04:13.159 --> 05:04:21.000
even though if not really started to focus on your body,

1740
05:04:24.000 --> 05:04:35.040
you can already feel that healing energy spreading through your body,

1741
05:04:39.919 --> 05:04:54.240
pushing out stress and tension, healing all the parts of

1742
05:04:54.319 --> 05:05:04.080
your body, including your skin, your bone, your blood, all

1743
05:05:04.159 --> 05:05:08.720
of your organs inside your body, all of the muscles,

1744
05:05:09.880 --> 05:05:17.200
all of the fat, all of everything, every hair on

1745
05:05:17.360 --> 05:05:30.759
your body is filled with that healing energy. And when

1746
05:05:30.840 --> 05:05:47.840
your brain fills without healing energy. The feeling of comfort

1747
05:05:49.400 --> 05:06:15.119
relaxation increases deeply increases in a way that in your

1748
05:06:15.279 --> 05:06:32.680
mind starts to fill perhaps been drowsing because it's not needed,

1749
05:06:36.119 --> 05:06:52.360
and it may start to drift if that's what's needed.

1750
05:06:55.520 --> 05:06:59.919
So if you're listening to this and what you need

1751
05:07:00.360 --> 05:07:03.439
is deep relaxation, and that's where you get.

1752
05:07:05.599 --> 05:07:10.400
If what you need is to fall asleep.

1753
05:07:11.680 --> 05:07:20.639
Naturally and easily, that your mind drifts, that's also what

1754
05:07:20.720 --> 05:07:33.720
will happened because by pressing that play button on the

1755
05:07:33.799 --> 05:07:41.319
podcast and listening to me, give permission your body and

1756
05:07:41.479 --> 05:07:53.479
your mind. In fact, you give the command to your

1757
05:07:53.560 --> 05:08:04.880
body and your mind to relax deep and to drift

1758
05:08:05.000 --> 05:08:10.279
off to sleep, if that's what you want.

1759
05:08:13.479 --> 05:08:14.040
Or need.

1760
05:08:21.560 --> 05:08:27.240
Them. As I focus on the different parts of your body,

1761
05:08:32.200 --> 05:08:41.000
you may start to just drift. And then you come

1762
05:08:41.119 --> 05:08:45.680
back again and you hear me talk again, and I'm

1763
05:08:45.799 --> 05:08:54.959
focusing on a different part of your body, you may

1764
05:08:57.080 --> 05:09:06.200
find yourself drifting be then realize you're drifting, until you're

1765
05:09:06.319 --> 05:09:14.639
stop drifting, dre a laugh again to my voice. Focusing

1766
05:09:15.799 --> 05:09:20.479
on a different part of your body starts to relax,

1767
05:09:20.680 --> 05:09:30.919
see the Deva. Because I drifting, it's basically you already

1768
05:09:33.200 --> 05:09:43.000
in the sleep side. And the more you drift, the

1769
05:09:43.279 --> 05:09:53.639
longer you drift, the longer you drift. Eventually that drifting

1770
05:09:53.840 --> 05:10:03.840
continues into sleep, and that's the last you remember.

1771
05:10:05.400 --> 05:10:06.520
Until you wake up.

1772
05:10:10.880 --> 05:10:15.959
In your own time. When you experience the right amount

1773
05:10:16.119 --> 05:10:25.080
of sleep. Fear because when you do and if you

1774
05:10:25.240 --> 05:10:39.360
do fall asleep, it's extremely pleasant. So relaxing so deep

1775
05:10:40.799 --> 05:11:01.200
here sleep, I feel so nice to relax into your

1776
05:11:01.279 --> 05:11:10.799
own body and mind. If you feel that heating image

1777
05:11:10.880 --> 05:11:27.680
is spreading through it, relaxing is so deeply. Relase so deeply.

1778
05:11:37.279 --> 05:11:53.880
Start to focus on your eyes, moving down to your jaw.

1779
05:12:01.759 --> 05:12:12.159
Don't think you showed us.

1780
05:12:35.400 --> 05:13:29.599
Thinks it justtoppin.

1781
05:13:14.959 --> 05:14:17.360
Hips you x faintses spreading grimeside your body, feeling you up. Now,

1782
05:14:20.759 --> 05:14:30.720
let's focus again. Are parts of your body? Kay, Focusing

1783
05:14:30.880 --> 05:14:41.880
this time on your forehead. Now on your mouth, your lips,

1784
05:14:43.880 --> 05:15:02.959
your tongue, a whole of your mouth. M focusing on

1785
05:15:03.159 --> 05:15:03.799
your fingers.

1786
05:15:09.159 --> 05:15:10.439
Maybe you could.

1787
05:15:11.840 --> 05:15:15.560
Move your fingers a little bit as you can focus

1788
05:15:15.680 --> 05:15:30.080
on each one individually, both hands, and even though you

1789
05:15:30.119 --> 05:15:35.520
should focus on both of your hands now it almost

1790
05:15:35.639 --> 05:15:44.159
seemed to just melt into one. Where is your right hand?

1791
05:15:44.360 --> 05:16:01.159
Start left hand and no words as if just mixed together. Now,

1792
05:16:01.360 --> 05:16:29.200
focusing on your knees, just noticing how your knees help. Now,

1793
05:16:29.439 --> 05:16:43.880
focusing your holpers, focusing on by few hours, just observing

1794
05:16:46.040 --> 05:18:59.040
the feeling of your hopes to say, sacks.

1795
05:18:11.720 --> 05:18:12.439
Eos.

1796
05:18:26.000 --> 05:19:34.040
It's a group of sensations. As I just said, Now

go everything, letting go, letting go, letting go everything, everything.

1802
05:22:49.319 --> 05:22:53.000
I'm going to start now, and I'd like you just,

1803
05:22:53.159 --> 05:22:58.799
first of all, just to see yourself laying down on

1804
05:22:58.919 --> 05:23:05.080
that message table, lying on your front. Your head is supported,

1805
05:23:05.479 --> 05:23:14.240
your arms are supported, and you feel comfortable and breathing

1806
05:23:14.439 --> 05:23:23.840
is really easy, and you feel you feel confident in

1807
05:23:23.959 --> 05:23:26.159
how you look as well. So there's none of that

1808
05:23:26.319 --> 05:23:33.080
issue of body problems or shyness, because I'm a professional

1809
05:23:34.240 --> 05:23:40.599
and this is a therapy session, so none of that

1810
05:23:40.799 --> 05:23:50.599
stuff matters on whatsoever. This is about you. This is

1811
05:23:50.680 --> 05:23:58.959
about how you feel and how you can enjoy that

1812
05:23:59.200 --> 05:24:05.080
sense of foot and relaxation that comes from letting go

1813
05:24:05.599 --> 05:24:10.919
and allowing my hands and my fingers to relax you

1814
05:24:13.799 --> 05:24:22.479
by messaging your body. So I want to start off

1815
05:24:22.720 --> 05:24:27.599
just by placing my hands on the back of your head,

1816
05:24:29.040 --> 05:24:34.400
just gently, just so you can feel my hands feel

1817
05:24:34.520 --> 05:24:41.240
like really on you. So you can maybe feel the

1818
05:24:41.360 --> 05:24:43.520
warmth of my hands on the back of your head.

1819
05:24:47.200 --> 05:24:50.720
With my hands to the side of your head, not pressing,

1820
05:24:50.880 --> 05:24:57.200
but just holding there very gently, maybe over your ears,

1821
05:24:57.759 --> 05:25:00.720
and a little bit on your face, just so you

1822
05:25:00.840 --> 05:25:07.279
can feel my hands so you can become accustomed.

1823
05:25:08.319 --> 05:25:08.720
To them.

1824
05:25:17.360 --> 05:25:19.520
And now put my hands on the back of your

1825
05:25:19.599 --> 05:25:26.880
head again and gently let them slide down on to

1826
05:25:26.959 --> 05:25:36.799
the back of your neck. You can feel my hands

1827
05:25:43.680 --> 05:25:46.599
gently stroking the back of your neck to start with,

1828
05:25:51.200 --> 05:25:55.200
just so you can get used to the feeling of

1829
05:25:55.360 --> 05:26:02.680
my hands on your skin, get accustomed to it, realize

1830
05:26:02.799 --> 05:26:07.000
that you're safe and it's all good, it's all fine.

1831
05:26:13.439 --> 05:26:17.479
And I want to start gently massaging the muscles in

1832
05:26:17.560 --> 05:26:33.400
the back of your neck with both hands. Now, this

1833
05:26:33.560 --> 05:26:39.799
is a very trusting situation really, because our necks is

1834
05:26:39.880 --> 05:26:45.040
so fragile and to have someone have their hands around

1835
05:26:45.119 --> 05:26:50.240
your neck in that way can sometimes be problematic for people,

1836
05:26:51.479 --> 05:26:55.919
which is why massages are quite good because it allows

1837
05:26:56.000 --> 05:27:05.959
you to relax and to get in touch with trust,

1838
05:27:10.240 --> 05:27:22.799
to feel peaceful and calm. There's a massage the sides

1839
05:27:22.919 --> 05:27:30.919
of your neck, gently moving from the bottom of your neck.

1840
05:27:32.680 --> 05:27:35.159
It would be sort of near where your shoulders start,

1841
05:27:35.240 --> 05:27:42.319
I guess, all the way up to your jaw, your ears,

1842
05:27:42.759 --> 05:27:48.479
kind of area the side of your neck. Of course,

1843
05:27:48.520 --> 05:27:51.040
it's a lot longer than the front of your neck

1844
05:28:04.040 --> 05:28:11.119
and message in the back of your neck, especially that

1845
05:28:11.319 --> 05:28:20.799
area where perhaps we hold tension, and there's that area's message.

1846
05:28:21.159 --> 05:28:25.240
You can actually feel a sense of release in the

1847
05:28:25.319 --> 05:28:33.200
back of your neck and maybe you can breathe it

1848
05:28:33.319 --> 05:28:39.279
out as well. Notice how it feels. Notice how you feel.

1849
05:28:49.119 --> 05:28:52.759
They're moving down to that area between your neck and

1850
05:28:52.840 --> 05:29:02.959
your shoulders, that musty area, starting to message that area

1851
05:29:03.040 --> 05:29:07.360
on both sides. I mean, this would be the area

1852
05:29:07.479 --> 05:29:10.040
that a lot of people would message if they were

1853
05:29:10.119 --> 05:29:15.040
going to give you, like a shoulder message. Even that's

1854
05:29:15.439 --> 05:29:18.840
not technically the shoulders, but it's all the muscles that

1855
05:29:19.040 --> 05:29:25.200
lead to the shoulders from the neck and a game

1856
05:29:25.360 --> 05:29:32.360
that can hold tension and stress. And when massaged sometimes

1857
05:29:32.439 --> 05:29:39.439
a nice deep message is useful, and you decide how

1858
05:29:39.639 --> 05:29:57.599
deep that message is and just allow my knuckles just

1859
05:29:57.720 --> 05:30:02.439
to dig in, get to those muscles into a really

1860
05:30:05.880 --> 05:30:14.240
relaxed all the time, and being firm yet gentle with

1861
05:30:14.479 --> 05:30:33.040
you and just stroking down the area to your actual shoulders,

1862
05:30:35.319 --> 05:30:44.919
moving to the muscles of your shoulders, and maybe initially

1863
05:30:45.159 --> 05:30:49.159
just pulling up the shoulders a little bit off the

1864
05:30:49.319 --> 05:30:52.919
table just to give you a little bit of a stretch,

1865
05:30:54.720 --> 05:31:03.400
but very gently. And you've got the muscles at the

1866
05:31:03.479 --> 05:31:15.400
front of your shoulders the sides of the back. Again,

1867
05:31:15.680 --> 05:31:19.520
this is a part that can really take quite a

1868
05:31:19.599 --> 05:31:27.799
bit of pressure, quite a bit of needing if if

1869
05:31:27.880 --> 05:31:35.840
you wish to really release the tension to really get

1870
05:31:35.959 --> 05:31:42.520
into those muscles, and you can let your fingers in there.

1871
05:31:43.599 --> 05:31:49.159
They can feel really nice. Sometimes it's just being stroked

1872
05:31:49.279 --> 05:31:59.799
gently or being messaged quite strongly, can all be beneficial

1873
05:32:01.439 --> 05:32:19.560
to the reorversation with the muscles in your shoulders. Now

1874
05:32:19.959 --> 05:32:29.840
you move down your arms, putting one arm at a time,

1875
05:32:30.759 --> 05:32:39.840
starting with your right arm. What I do is I

1876
05:32:40.119 --> 05:32:44.240
just lift your arm up, just hold it to the

1877
05:32:44.439 --> 05:32:51.799
side of you that would still be attached, and I

1878
05:32:52.000 --> 05:33:06.560
just message the tops of your arms all the way

1879
05:33:06.680 --> 05:33:31.520
down to your forearms into your wrists, gently massaging that part,

1880
05:33:34.159 --> 05:33:37.840
the softer part, which is the underpart of the arm,

1881
05:33:40.919 --> 05:33:44.639
which leads to the crease in your rowbo the inside.

1882
05:33:46.080 --> 05:34:00.439
It's much more sensitive skin. Sometimes just having that roped,

1883
05:34:03.680 --> 05:34:19.200
I feel really nice, pleasurable and relaxing. Now moving down

1884
05:34:20.599 --> 05:34:32.959
to your right hand, just holding your hand in both

1885
05:34:33.040 --> 05:34:42.639
of my hands, just pressing gently on the back of

1886
05:34:42.720 --> 05:34:54.040
your hand, stretching your fingers ever slightly at the same

1887
05:34:54.200 --> 05:35:09.479
time pressing down and messaging each finger, and then starting

1888
05:35:09.639 --> 05:35:20.040
to massage the palms of their hand. Just turning the

1889
05:35:20.319 --> 05:35:31.639
hand gently, stretching it gently, and actually having your handheld

1890
05:35:32.680 --> 05:35:39.520
can really be an emotional experience sometimes, even if it

1891
05:35:39.720 --> 05:35:45.400
is a stranger, someone you don't know very well, like

1892
05:35:45.560 --> 05:35:52.479
a massage person or a therapist. Maybe because it's intimate,

1893
05:36:00.200 --> 05:36:13.000
you can feel nice, you can feel safe. And as

1894
05:36:13.080 --> 05:36:16.040
I put that right arm back down where it was,

1895
05:36:21.639 --> 05:36:28.119
we did the same with your left arm, exactly the

1896
05:36:28.319 --> 05:36:37.759
same massage and the muscles in your arm all the

1897
05:36:37.840 --> 05:36:46.319
way down. Do you arrest, stroking the inside of your arm,

1898
05:36:51.840 --> 05:37:05.279
just being gentle or as firm as you require, and

1899
05:37:05.400 --> 05:37:21.799
then massaging your left hand, stretching the fingers, gently, massaging

1900
05:37:22.080 --> 05:37:41.799
the palm of your left hand. You feel so so relaxing,

1901
05:37:49.479 --> 05:38:07.240
so comforting, and I just rest your left down back down.

1902
05:38:14.560 --> 05:38:20.880
The start to massage your back, the biggest part of

1903
05:38:20.959 --> 05:38:32.360
your body, starting at the top, starting again where you

1904
05:38:32.439 --> 05:38:36.240
already have been, the area at the top in between

1905
05:38:36.319 --> 05:38:43.240
your shoulders, near your neck. Going back and massage in

1906
05:38:43.279 --> 05:38:55.360
the area again, this time moving downwards, making it downward.

1907
05:38:55.560 --> 05:39:03.319
Stroke to the middle of your back back, working from

1908
05:39:03.400 --> 05:39:11.279
the outside inwards, massage in that your back, but the

1909
05:39:13.319 --> 05:39:24.040
outside of your back parts where your arms would maybe

1910
05:39:24.520 --> 05:39:37.200
rest against, almost the path that connects your front to

1911
05:39:37.400 --> 05:39:55.360
your back. Just messaging down firmly but gently, as firm

1912
05:39:55.400 --> 05:40:03.040
as you want, moving down, and then moving across a

1913
05:40:03.119 --> 05:40:06.680
little bed and moving all the way down again, be

1914
05:40:06.919 --> 05:40:19.759
very gentle yet firm as you choose. Eventually you get

1915
05:40:19.799 --> 05:40:24.840
to the spine. We can message the muscles and either

1916
05:40:25.040 --> 05:40:28.360
side of your spine from the top of your neck

1917
05:40:28.759 --> 05:40:40.279
all the way down to your lower back. We can

1918
05:40:40.400 --> 05:40:49.759
do that a few times. Sometimes people juice the knuckle

1919
05:40:50.680 --> 05:40:55.000
or that you know, the two fingers and just go

1920
05:40:55.200 --> 05:41:00.520
either side of the spine, almost just push down, go

1921
05:41:00.639 --> 05:41:02.720
all the way down to the bottom of the spine,

1922
05:41:04.400 --> 05:41:14.080
each time releasing tension and opening up the body, stretching

1923
05:41:15.240 --> 05:41:22.119
your body so that you feel more relaxed but at

1924
05:41:22.159 --> 05:41:38.479
the same time rejuvenated. And now I'm going to move

1925
05:41:38.599 --> 05:41:46.880
to one side, to your right side, and from the

1926
05:41:46.959 --> 05:41:52.479
bottom of your ribs to your pelvis, I'm going to

1927
05:41:52.599 --> 05:41:59.279
message that area of your back. I'll stretch over the

1928
05:41:59.319 --> 05:42:04.119
other side and I will pull the muscles gently and

1929
05:42:04.360 --> 05:42:09.119
massage and push from one end that side or the

1930
05:42:09.200 --> 05:42:14.200
way to my side to the middle of fact to

1931
05:42:14.240 --> 05:42:19.400
where your spine is massaging that side of your spine

1932
05:42:21.080 --> 05:42:26.400
the opposite side to where I'm standing. It's almost likely

1933
05:42:26.479 --> 05:42:31.400
kneading bread. There's that big area.

1934
05:42:31.240 --> 05:42:31.639
Which is.

1935
05:42:33.159 --> 05:42:43.400
Firm yet lots there to message. Potentially one of the

1936
05:42:43.479 --> 05:42:50.119
most important places to actually have a message because you

1937
05:42:51.200 --> 05:42:56.639
feel it. You really feel the release and the pleasure

1938
05:42:58.000 --> 05:43:05.200
of having your lower back message. It releases so much

1939
05:43:05.720 --> 05:43:14.119
from your body that's not useful, starting a healing process

1940
05:43:15.759 --> 05:43:28.520
which will continue long after this recording is over. The

1941
05:43:28.720 --> 05:43:31.799
message in this part of your body not only feels

1942
05:43:31.959 --> 05:43:38.000
really good for you, it's actually fun to do because

1943
05:43:38.040 --> 05:43:43.439
it is, as I said, like kneading bread. It's a

1944
05:43:43.560 --> 05:43:47.720
part that you can really get hold of and really

1945
05:43:47.919 --> 05:44:01.159
massage deeply. If that's your choice. They're not going to

1946
05:44:01.240 --> 05:44:03.680
move over to the other side of your body and

1947
05:44:03.799 --> 05:44:12.919
do the same with the opposite part of your lawer back.

1948
05:44:15.520 --> 05:44:24.159
Kneeding and messaging from your sides all the way to

1949
05:44:24.319 --> 05:44:31.759
the middle of your back where your spine is pressing

1950
05:44:32.119 --> 05:44:42.560
and kneading, firm and gentle at the same time. It

1951
05:44:42.840 --> 05:44:55.040
feels so releasing this mixture of pleasure, comfort, release, calmness,

1952
05:44:55.400 --> 05:45:07.040
relaxation or mixed together. Plus there's that feeling from your

1953
05:45:07.119 --> 05:45:12.279
stomach as it's being stretched. Even though you're in your

1954
05:45:12.360 --> 05:45:16.639
stomach now, you can feel it being stretched because that

1955
05:45:16.799 --> 05:45:28.200
whole area is connected to your stomach. Now we're going

1956
05:45:28.240 --> 05:45:33.159
to move or move further up to your top of

1957
05:45:33.240 --> 05:45:37.680
your body, and I'm gonna do the same this time,

1958
05:45:39.000 --> 05:45:45.799
starting with your upper back. Put my hands forward over

1959
05:45:47.119 --> 05:45:53.279
and MESSI massage in that area up to your spine,

1960
05:45:54.479 --> 05:45:57.080
from the side of your body up to your spine.

1961
05:45:58.880 --> 05:46:02.720
So some of that mess large area, the muscle tissue

1962
05:46:05.000 --> 05:46:09.080
or whatever fatty tissue even will be possibly from your chest.

1963
05:46:10.919 --> 05:46:15.040
Beau's all connected. The chest and the back connect together.

1964
05:46:18.200 --> 05:46:21.439
I'm going to be massaging and just pulling some of

1965
05:46:21.560 --> 05:46:29.520
that skin from your side up and massaging the area

1966
05:46:32.520 --> 05:46:36.639
of your upper back all the way to your spine.

1967
05:46:41.080 --> 05:46:43.279
And then I'll move down a bit and I'll continue

1968
05:46:43.919 --> 05:46:46.639
with the middle of your back, doing exactly the same

1969
05:46:46.759 --> 05:47:04.080
thing as gentle or as deep as you choose. Now,

1970
05:47:04.119 --> 05:47:07.959
I'll move from the other side again and do the

1971
05:47:08.080 --> 05:47:12.279
exact same thing with the top of your back on

1972
05:47:12.360 --> 05:47:21.639
the other side, from pretty much underneath your arm area

1973
05:47:21.799 --> 05:47:36.959
really to your spine, and then continue in that all

1974
05:47:36.959 --> 05:47:42.040
the way down, including your lower your middle of your back.

1975
05:47:55.720 --> 05:48:00.919
I'm gonna go to your thighs because of your thighs

1976
05:48:03.599 --> 05:48:11.000
and the sides of your thighs, starting with your right leg,

1977
05:48:13.319 --> 05:48:20.720
massage in the back and the sides of your thighs

1978
05:48:23.159 --> 05:48:29.560
gently and firmly. There's a lot of muscles there. It's

1979
05:48:29.599 --> 05:48:32.880
an area that can be very tense at times and

1980
05:48:33.080 --> 05:48:36.439
maybe needs a little bit more pressure than the rest

1981
05:48:36.479 --> 05:48:44.639
of the body that's up to you. You can gently

1982
05:48:44.799 --> 05:48:52.040
stroke the back of your legs where you know obviously

1983
05:48:52.159 --> 05:48:59.919
your knee joint or underneath your knee joint, very sensitive, gentle, yeah,

1984
05:49:07.119 --> 05:49:14.240
And then working down to your calf muscles, Massage in

1985
05:49:14.360 --> 05:49:18.040
your calf muscles thoroughly and deeply.

1986
05:49:19.159 --> 05:49:20.119
If you choose.

1987
05:49:23.360 --> 05:49:42.560
Using both hands fingers, digging deep to your ankles, in

1988
05:49:42.680 --> 05:49:48.880
the back of your back of your ankles, just generally

1989
05:49:49.119 --> 05:50:01.439
message in that area, maybe lifting the leg and stretching

1990
05:50:01.560 --> 05:50:24.240
a little bit. Moving to the right foot, massage in

1991
05:50:26.799 --> 05:50:33.560
the bottom of your feet and the size of your

1992
05:50:33.639 --> 05:50:44.680
feet gently but firm enough so they don't tickle.

1993
05:50:50.479 --> 05:50:51.400
Just allow.

1994
05:50:53.680 --> 05:50:56.959
The pleasure that you get from having your feet massaged

1995
05:50:59.639 --> 05:51:06.000
to Just don't overtake you as I continue to message

1996
05:51:06.040 --> 05:51:15.520
your feet, the bottoms of your feet, the sides, your arches,

1997
05:51:16.240 --> 05:51:21.000
your heel. You can put a lot of pressure into

1998
05:51:21.080 --> 05:51:27.119
your heel and it feels amazing, Yet the arches need

1999
05:51:27.240 --> 05:51:35.639
to be a bit more gentle. Stretching your toes gently,

2000
05:51:38.360 --> 05:51:42.680
the message in the bottoms of your toes with my fingers,

2001
05:51:45.119 --> 05:51:58.919
each one individually. Moving over to the left leg to

2002
05:51:59.040 --> 05:52:07.279
do exactly the same thing, starting at the top of

2003
05:52:07.360 --> 05:52:12.000
the thighs, work in the back of the thighs and

2004
05:52:12.119 --> 05:52:24.520
the sides, massaging deeply and gently, a whole area, working

2005
05:52:24.599 --> 05:52:33.639
all the way down. And this is an area that

2006
05:52:34.799 --> 05:52:42.599
maybe you could like to spend more time relaxing and messaging.

2007
05:52:45.439 --> 05:52:50.919
So perhaps if you wanted, I could make a future recording.

2008
05:52:51.560 --> 05:53:00.400
Wants spend more time on one particular area as you

2009
05:53:00.560 --> 05:53:12.919
moved down to your calf muscles. Massage in your calf

2010
05:53:13.080 --> 05:53:28.959
muscles firmly and gently, move down your ankle into your feet.

2011
05:53:30.840 --> 05:53:36.560
Massage in the backs of your feet, the bottoms of

2012
05:53:36.639 --> 05:53:46.639
your feet, stretching your toes and massage in each toe individually.

2013
05:53:49.240 --> 05:53:55.080
And that feeling of pleasure and release the experience when

2014
05:53:55.159 --> 05:54:13.520
you're having your feet massaged. It was really good. Now

2015
05:54:17.000 --> 05:54:21.080
should turn over in your mind. Laying on your back,

2016
05:54:28.520 --> 05:54:42.200
I'm just gonna start again your nick area in your shoulders,

2017
05:54:46.200 --> 05:54:56.959
just to get back in touch with that area. Unless

2018
05:54:57.000 --> 05:55:08.560
we move up, I can clean my hands, beat them

2019
05:55:08.639 --> 05:55:14.279
more fresh because now I'm gonna message your face gently,

2020
05:55:18.680 --> 05:55:29.919
starting off with your forehead. Your eyes are closed, I

2021
05:55:30.000 --> 05:55:35.919
can just stretch your eyes a little bit, pushing up

2022
05:55:36.000 --> 05:55:52.680
on your eyebrows. Just massage him around your scalp, massaging

2023
05:55:52.919 --> 05:56:03.159
down your cheeks, around your ears, into your jaw gently

2024
05:56:08.119 --> 05:56:09.599
the side of your neck.

2025
05:56:13.599 --> 05:56:13.840
Chin.

2026
05:56:25.159 --> 05:56:32.840
They're just moving down should your neck down to your chest,

2027
05:56:36.599 --> 05:56:40.639
starting by message in the very top of your chest

2028
05:56:44.479 --> 05:56:49.720
where the collar bone is given side of the collarbone,

2029
05:56:58.159 --> 05:57:01.400
and then just message and the whole of the chest,

2030
05:57:10.599 --> 05:57:22.639
moving the chest around, because it's quite a large area.

2031
05:57:24.599 --> 05:57:32.000
You can move from one side to the next, moving

2032
05:57:32.400 --> 05:57:43.360
my hands underneath pretty much re your arms up, stretching up,

2033
05:57:45.560 --> 05:57:48.599
stretching some of the muscles of your back in the process,

2034
05:57:53.880 --> 05:58:02.560
moving up over your chest, and they're moving down again.

2035
05:58:15.319 --> 05:58:20.799
Then allowing my hands they just massage gently and slide

2036
05:58:21.080 --> 05:58:27.599
down towards your stomach, starting in the middle of your chest,

2037
05:58:31.040 --> 05:58:37.720
and then gradually my hands moving apart and massage in

2038
05:58:37.880 --> 05:58:47.200
and sliding at the same time, moving down to just

2039
05:58:47.319 --> 05:59:02.840
below your red cage, moving down, then messaging up again,

2040
05:59:05.639 --> 05:59:11.479
giving you a chest all the attention that it needs

2041
05:59:13.479 --> 05:59:25.840
to feel completely relaxed. Remembering that I'm also going to

2042
05:59:25.919 --> 05:59:31.479
be focusing on your sides as well, an area that

2043
05:59:31.759 --> 05:59:38.959
really doesn't get much attention but feels really good when

2044
05:59:39.000 --> 05:59:48.279
it's massaged. Just stroking my hands down the sides of

2045
05:59:48.360 --> 05:59:55.279
your body, just below your arms, all the way down

2046
05:59:55.360 --> 06:00:10.400
to your hips. Now move into your stomach area. We're

2047
06:00:10.400 --> 06:00:13.840
gonna stand on one side of you like I did

2048
06:00:13.959 --> 06:00:18.319
when I did your lawer back. I'm gonna do a

2049
06:00:18.479 --> 06:00:24.319
similar process of just stretching the muscles from your side,

2050
06:00:27.840 --> 06:00:37.119
gently massaging from one side to the next.

2051
06:00:39.439 --> 06:00:39.880
Move in.

2052
06:00:42.439 --> 06:00:46.639
The whole area from below your ribs all the way

2053
06:00:46.720 --> 06:00:57.159
down to below your belly button. And I'm gonna move

2054
06:00:57.279 --> 06:01:00.279
around to the other side of you and repeat that

2055
06:01:06.919 --> 06:01:20.919
process of relaxing deeply, calmly. You feel loose, you feel free.

2056
06:01:23.319 --> 06:01:28.040
And there's something about having your stomach message that's different

2057
06:01:28.080 --> 06:01:34.919
from any other part because we do have a tendency

2058
06:01:35.560 --> 06:01:39.400
of holding a different kind of stress in your stomach

2059
06:01:40.840 --> 06:01:48.680
that we may not be aware of. There's an our

2060
06:01:48.880 --> 06:01:56.119
message your stomach. In front of your stomach, they can

2061
06:01:56.439 --> 06:02:07.759
circles around your baby and then going the other way around.

2062
06:02:14.360 --> 06:02:20.880
The gentleness and a freedom that comes from feeling how

2063
06:02:21.000 --> 06:02:31.119
you're feeling. As I now move down the tops of

2064
06:02:31.240 --> 06:02:38.240
your thighs muscles, massaging them, and I can do this

2065
06:02:39.240 --> 06:02:47.520
to your legs at the same time, pressing down, massaging

2066
06:02:48.000 --> 06:02:53.599
deeply those muscles in your thighs of fronten of your thighs,

2067
06:02:59.000 --> 06:03:04.560
and moving down on your knees, gently massaging your knees,

2068
06:03:09.840 --> 06:03:15.880
Sliding down your shins, put pressure on either side of

2069
06:03:16.000 --> 06:03:29.040
your shin gently, softly but firmly, moving down to your ankles,

2070
06:03:34.000 --> 06:03:43.639
stroking the tops of your feet, and then with each

2071
06:03:45.000 --> 06:03:50.400
foot in each hand, just gently massaging the whole of

2072
06:03:50.479 --> 06:03:59.279
the foot, the top, the bottom, your heel, your ankle,

2073
06:04:00.159 --> 06:04:11.759
your toes, message in every part of your feet feels

2074
06:04:11.880 --> 06:04:17.400
so good. Just to let go and enjoy the process.

2075
06:04:23.080 --> 06:04:41.919
Enjoy feeling so deeply relaxed, so much comfort and so

2076
06:04:42.119 --> 06:04:58.599
many feelings be come just from touching your skin. And

2077
06:04:58.840 --> 06:05:05.200
you can just lie there for as long as you choose,

2078
06:05:09.200 --> 06:05:18.680
enjoying the feeling of deep comfort from being massaged.

2079
06:05:20.639 --> 06:05:21.000
By me.

2080
06:05:28.200 --> 06:05:33.040
Enjoy feeling.

2081
06:05:36.799 --> 06:05:42.759
Deeply rased.

2082
06:05:48.639 --> 06:05:55.119
And all we're gonna do is blow out some candles.

2083
06:05:57.639 --> 06:06:12.720
In your mind, there are gonna be a hundred candles,

2084
06:06:19.840 --> 06:06:25.639
and you're going to blow each one out individually, one

2085
06:06:26.000 --> 06:06:33.400
by one, starting at one hundred. As I count down

2086
06:06:38.599 --> 06:06:45.439
all the way down to one, and each time I

2087
06:06:45.759 --> 06:06:54.799
say the number, you can imagine that candle in front

2088
06:06:54.880 --> 06:07:05.880
of you, and I'd like you to actually physically generally

2089
06:07:06.040 --> 06:07:21.720
blow that candle out, just so it's not big blows,

2090
06:07:22.119 --> 06:07:35.959
just a gentle, and that candle will extinguish. And then

2091
06:07:36.119 --> 06:07:40.319
I'll say the next number, so we move down.

2092
06:07:43.319 --> 06:07:44.040
And you can just.

2093
06:07:47.759 --> 06:07:56.799
Blow that one out as well. And as we move

2094
06:07:57.200 --> 06:08:08.200
down the numbers, you'll find yourself feeding more and more relaxed.

2095
06:08:11.200 --> 06:08:12.040
If you need.

2096
06:08:13.520 --> 06:08:22.759
To sleep, you'll also find yourself becoming incredibly tired and sleepy.

2097
06:08:26.639 --> 06:08:34.080
In fact, you may struggle to blow out all one

2098
06:08:34.240 --> 06:08:51.119
hundred of these candles as you feel more and more

2099
06:08:51.439 --> 06:09:19.319
deeply relaxed, more and more deeply tired, And the further

2100
06:09:19.720 --> 06:09:29.400
you go down, the more your mind starts to drift.

2101
06:09:35.799 --> 06:09:42.240
You may find that you stop listening to me after

2102
06:09:42.360 --> 06:09:55.520
a while. And even though there maybe background sounds where

2103
06:09:55.560 --> 06:10:06.639
you are, you'll be aware of those sounds at the moment,

2104
06:10:11.959 --> 06:10:27.599
being may start just not even notice them at all

2105
06:10:30.360 --> 06:10:44.360
because they're unimportant. Where I am, I've got the sounds

2106
06:10:44.439 --> 06:10:51.240
of the birds, there's horrors, the pigeon who likes to

2107
06:10:51.319 --> 06:10:57.880
say hello. Sometimes there's the old playue that goes by,

2108
06:11:00.919 --> 06:11:14.360
maybe traffic and trains in the distance. But none of

2109
06:11:14.439 --> 06:11:28.880
that scenes important whatsoever, Or candles you blow out, less

2110
06:11:29.000 --> 06:11:46.119
important anything is, or candles you blow out. The further

2111
06:11:46.360 --> 06:12:06.720
you seem to move away from sounds, general date days,

2112
06:12:07.159 --> 06:12:23.240
stuff seems to just move away on its own. Feel

2113
06:12:23.759 --> 06:12:49.000
more calmer with every candy blowout guiding the next number.

2114
06:12:51.799 --> 06:13:01.319
Did you hear me say? And then you blow that

2115
06:13:01.720 --> 06:13:29.119
candle out to so easy, so simple, I'm gonna start

2116
06:13:29.639 --> 06:13:48.520
by introducing the first candle. She is a hundred. First candle,

2117
06:13:52.040 --> 06:14:01.840
she is one hundred. When you blow that candle out,

2118
06:14:08.680 --> 06:14:21.360
you'll find immediately a slight change in how you feel,

2119
06:14:26.520 --> 06:14:34.759
as well as a real sense of positivity growing within you,

2120
06:14:40.840 --> 06:15:10.759
relaxation and sleepiness expanding. Starting where one hundred, don't have

2121
06:15:10.959 --> 06:16:21.479

2150
07:12:42.400 --> 07:12:50.520
all of those thoughts, worries, concerns about the past, thoughts

2151
07:12:50.599 --> 07:12:55.439
about the future, and even things you've been thinking about today.

2152
07:12:57.520 --> 07:13:02.680
Just let it all go because none of it is

2153
07:13:02.880 --> 07:13:17.319
useful in this moment. This is your opportunity to just

2154
07:13:17.680 --> 07:13:32.040
focus on feeling relaxed, allowing yourself to get in touch

2155
07:13:32.200 --> 07:13:41.639
with that natural sense of peace that we all have

2156
07:13:41.959 --> 07:13:49.080
within us. It's available for everyone, it just sometimes takes

2157
07:13:49.959 --> 07:13:53.680
a little bit of effort to set up the right

2158
07:13:56.159 --> 07:14:00.240
time and place in order for you to just let go,

2159
07:14:03.759 --> 07:14:09.279
because when you do decide to let go and relax,

2160
07:14:11.880 --> 07:14:18.520
that's what your body starts to do because you've chosen.

2161
07:14:20.040 --> 07:14:27.000
You've chosen to just allow your body to unwind and

2162
07:14:27.159 --> 07:14:34.159
your mind starts to slow down. And it's a nice feeling.

2163
07:14:36.200 --> 07:14:39.319
It's a nice feeling at the beginning, just to know

2164
07:14:40.479 --> 07:14:50.560
that you have chosen to decide to relax deeply, and

2165
07:14:50.680 --> 07:14:57.240
because you've made that decision, your body or just follow suit.

2166
07:15:00.240 --> 07:15:04.799
Sometimes all the muscles in your body need is just

2167
07:15:05.159 --> 07:15:14.400
permission from you to relax because so often we're busy,

2168
07:15:14.639 --> 07:15:18.840
we're going from here to there, we're walking around, and

2169
07:15:18.959 --> 07:15:26.279
we're doing stuff, and the body doesn't have any time

2170
07:15:26.560 --> 07:15:34.919
or space to really relax deeply. So it kind of

2171
07:15:35.040 --> 07:15:40.599
waits for you to lead the way, waits for your permission.

2172
07:15:44.959 --> 07:15:51.439
And when you do give your permission, when you get

2173
07:15:51.520 --> 07:15:57.799
to say so, when you say okay, it's time for

2174
07:15:57.919 --> 07:16:07.560
your body to let go completely and relax totally, your

2175
07:16:07.599 --> 07:16:17.080
body just follows somewhere like a breath of relief. Ah good,

2176
07:16:17.159 --> 07:16:24.080
I can now relax. Have feeling at the end of

2177
07:16:24.159 --> 07:16:28.159
a day of very physical day that you may experience

2178
07:16:28.279 --> 07:16:31.560
in the past, where you get home and you just

2179
07:16:31.759 --> 07:16:35.759
sit down in a chair, maybe you kick your shoes

2180
07:16:35.880 --> 07:16:41.479
off and not ah, feels so nice. I know that

2181
07:16:41.560 --> 07:16:45.599
you don't have to get up again for a little

2182
07:16:45.639 --> 07:16:48.919
while at least, and if you choose, you can just

2183
07:16:49.119 --> 07:17:01.959
sit there for maybe an hour to feels blissful. And

2184
07:17:02.279 --> 07:17:07.240
just by sitting down like that, your body knows that

2185
07:17:07.360 --> 07:17:12.799
it's time to relax. Your body has been given permission

2186
07:17:13.040 --> 07:17:22.720
from you. Because it's a mindset in your mind, you're

2187
07:17:22.799 --> 07:17:34.560
prepared to let go of everything and just completely allow

2188
07:17:34.959 --> 07:17:43.919
all the stress of your body to evaporate. The intensions

2189
07:17:44.240 --> 07:18:03.080
can just gradually vanish. It's almost like magic, really, because

2190
07:18:03.479 --> 07:18:09.959
that sense of relaxation in your body, it's a very

2191
07:18:10.159 --> 07:18:16.919
natural state. It's not something unusual. It may feel unusual

2192
07:18:17.240 --> 07:18:20.119
when you first start to relax, if you if you

2193
07:18:20.240 --> 07:18:25.439
haven't really spent a lot of time focusing and giving

2194
07:18:25.520 --> 07:18:30.759
yourself this space to let go completely and relax may

2195
07:18:30.919 --> 07:18:38.680
seem are most alien, but it isn't. It's actually the

2196
07:18:38.840 --> 07:18:43.799
most natural thing in the world to let go completely,

2197
07:18:45.520 --> 07:18:53.319
to relax totally, the most natural thing in the world

2198
07:18:55.959 --> 07:19:06.040
to allow yourself to feel really calm in your mind,

2199
07:19:08.639 --> 07:19:16.319
and it is almost like a literal unwinding. It's like

2200
07:19:16.479 --> 07:19:24.040
you press a button and all the tension just releases,

2201
07:19:25.400 --> 07:19:28.840
and it's like a wheel, like a cog, like the

2202
07:19:28.919 --> 07:19:32.880
inside of a clock, just unwinding. And it's almost like

2203
07:19:33.000 --> 07:19:38.080
you could see the little wind up knob that's used

2204
07:19:39.000 --> 07:19:43.040
just going the opposite way that you choose to wind

2205
07:19:43.080 --> 07:19:51.599
it up, and the energy that frenetic stress for energy

2206
07:19:53.080 --> 07:20:03.400
gradually winding down, losing its power, losing it strength as

2207
07:20:03.479 --> 07:20:12.880
a sense of relaxation becomes stronger and deeper, and you

2208
07:20:13.080 --> 07:20:21.240
may find a little more relaxed. You feel that your

2209
07:20:21.400 --> 07:20:31.360
mind starts to wonder. Maybe you seem to stop listening

2210
07:20:31.439 --> 07:20:36.040
to me for a while, your mind goes somewhere else,

2211
07:20:37.479 --> 07:20:43.319
and then you realize you're listening to me again, and

2212
07:20:43.439 --> 07:20:50.080
now it's just your mind drifting to sleep, which is

2213
07:20:50.240 --> 07:21:01.400
quite natural, because sometimes when we're stressed and tense, we're

2214
07:21:01.479 --> 07:21:05.080
not may not actually be aware of what we need

2215
07:21:06.240 --> 07:21:11.759
and we physically emotionally need in this moment.

2216
07:21:14.639 --> 07:21:17.959
But when you allow your.

2217
07:21:17.880 --> 07:21:23.599
Body and mind to relax completely and you let go

2218
07:21:23.720 --> 07:21:34.200
of all thoughts, concerns, worries, ideas, all the goo allow

2219
07:21:34.319 --> 07:21:44.720
them to drop onto the floor. You start to get

2220
07:21:44.799 --> 07:21:56.159
in touch with the feelings of such relaxation. Feels so

2221
07:21:56.520 --> 07:22:04.159
nice to be in touch to with the calmness of

2222
07:22:04.319 --> 07:22:13.040
the different body parts as they become looser and looser.

2223
07:22:17.240 --> 07:22:29.439
Even your breathing seems easier and more natural, effortless as

2224
07:22:29.520 --> 07:22:35.439
that cool outs through your mouth or notice into your lungs,

2225
07:22:38.200 --> 07:22:46.560
breathing in coomforts and relaxation and then just breathing out

2226
07:22:46.759 --> 07:22:55.639
any excess remain intentional stress from every part of your

2227
07:22:55.720 --> 07:23:04.159
body and mind. As you start to focus on your mind,

2228
07:23:05.959 --> 07:23:12.959
maybe you notice that things have come to a standstill,

2229
07:23:14.520 --> 07:23:23.599
maybe just much much lower than before, because your mind

2230
07:23:23.840 --> 07:23:34.319
is not really needed when listening to my voice, which

2231
07:23:34.439 --> 07:23:40.919
allows your mind to relax just as deep as your body.

2232
07:23:43.639 --> 07:23:55.639
And that's synchronicity between the relaxation of your body relaxation

2233
07:23:56.599 --> 07:24:10.360
of your mind. You know, feeling completely calm, loose, and relaxed.

2234
07:24:12.159 --> 07:24:13.200
Real is.

2235
07:24:14.959 --> 07:24:31.000
A great healing experience fear and has so many positive

2236
07:24:31.319 --> 07:24:39.279
benefits for your body, mind, and your life. To be

2237
07:24:39.439 --> 07:24:49.959
able to let go everything and to relax completely. You know,

2238
07:24:50.680 --> 07:24:58.639
all parts of your body and mind, even your bones

2239
07:24:59.240 --> 07:25:15.159
are right, your muscles are relaxed. Even the skin that

2240
07:25:15.560 --> 07:25:27.439
covers your body is relaxed. Every hand.

2241
07:25:30.439 --> 07:25:30.799
You have.

2242
07:25:32.599 --> 07:25:50.159
Is also deeply relaxed, and your brain really starts to

2243
07:25:50.400 --> 07:25:52.439
feel the benefits.

2244
07:25:53.759 --> 07:25:54.080
Of this.

2245
07:25:55.680 --> 07:26:07.319
Heaving relaxation. And as you focus on the in the

2246
07:26:07.560 --> 07:26:12.560
side of your scalp where your brain is, you can

2247
07:26:12.880 --> 07:26:20.840
start to realize and notice the benefits of your brain

2248
07:26:21.919 --> 07:26:36.040
relaxing demail in. As your brain continues to reats sends

2249
07:26:36.439 --> 07:26:45.000
those messages to the rest of your body and to

2250
07:26:45.040 --> 07:27:06.360
your mind to re wors more, delay, relax siny more completely,

2251
07:27:09.959 --> 07:27:21.840
letting go with any remaining thoughts or concerns, allow them

2252
07:27:22.240 --> 07:27:27.759
just to drop onto the floor because they're not not

2253
07:27:28.040 --> 07:27:36.080
been necessary in this moment, this moment.

2254
07:27:36.000 --> 07:27:37.000
Of deep.

2255
07:27:38.479 --> 07:28:08.040

every part of your brain feeling so loush and comfortable,

2257
07:28:28.919 --> 07:28:42.119
so relaxed and be peaceful. Your brain feels so light,

2258
07:28:44.360 --> 07:28:55.919
that's so healthy, that sense of deep deep comfort reading

2259
07:28:56.799 --> 07:29:09.919
does allow you to enjoy those ever increasing sensations of

2260
07:29:11.799 --> 07:29:25.919
comfort that are spreading throughout your body, relaxing each and

2261

So rel.

2279
07:33:07.799 --> 07:33:23.599
Peace letting going. You're going to do a body scan,

2280
07:33:25.400 --> 07:33:31.759
focusing on firstly how you feel in your body, not

2281
07:33:31.919 --> 07:33:37.319
trying to change how you feel, not trying to relax,

2282
07:33:38.599 --> 07:33:43.599
not trying to move away from any discomforts or stress

2283
07:33:43.799 --> 07:33:51.240
or tension. Just accepting, observing and accepting how you feel

2284
07:33:52.240 --> 07:33:57.159
in the different parts of your body, Just allowing yourself

2285
07:33:58.560 --> 07:34:06.040
to be exactly a you are to notice, to get

2286
07:34:06.080 --> 07:34:14.720
in touch with how you actually feel in this moment.

2287
07:34:18.479 --> 07:34:29.520
It starts off by focusing on your hands. Just be

2288
07:34:29.639 --> 07:34:38.479
aware of your hands, like you to move your hands around,

2289
07:34:39.959 --> 07:34:45.520
just maybe move your fingers a little bit. I've been

2290
07:34:45.680 --> 07:34:51.639
enclosed in your hands very gently, just so that you

2291
07:34:51.840 --> 07:34:59.680
can get in touch with how your hands and your

2292
07:34:59.759 --> 07:35:20.520
f ears phil very very slow movements. Focusing now on

2293
07:35:20.680 --> 07:35:27.799
your feet, and if you can just do kind of

2294
07:35:27.799 --> 07:35:32.759
an equivalent with your feet is you've just done with

2295
07:35:32.919 --> 07:35:41.520
your hands, Maybe turn in your ankles, moving your feet around,

2296
07:35:43.560 --> 07:35:53.959
moving your toes gently, only very gently and very slowly,

2297
07:35:56.959 --> 07:36:04.479
noticing the hell you your feet feel in this moment.

2298
07:36:11.439 --> 07:36:17.560
Focusing now and your eyes, I'd like you to just

2299
07:36:19.200 --> 07:36:25.000
focus on your eyelids. Maybe you can open and close

2300
07:36:25.080 --> 07:36:29.279
your eyes a couple of times to really get in

2301
07:36:29.520 --> 07:36:33.599
touch with how you feel when you do close your eyes.

2302
07:36:35.720 --> 07:36:42.159
The muscle changes in your eyes when you do close them.

2303
07:36:45.000 --> 07:36:51.360
Maybe raising your eyebrows. It stretches the tops of your eyes.

2304
07:36:54.599 --> 07:37:02.880
Perhaps squint in your eyes, scrunching up your eyes just

2305
07:37:03.000 --> 07:37:09.279
so you can here it get in touch with all

2306
07:37:09.439 --> 07:37:16.200
aspects of how your eyes feel.

2307
07:37:18.959 --> 07:37:19.520
Right now.

2308
07:37:28.799 --> 07:37:34.799
Now focusing on your thighs, and you know it just

2309
07:37:34.840 --> 07:37:43.200
starts you to gently tense your thighs, just very very gently,

2310
07:37:45.520 --> 07:37:50.119
just enough so you can become.

2311
07:37:51.240 --> 07:37:55.040
More attuned.

2312
07:37:55.880 --> 07:38:05.040
To the physical sensation of your upper legs, the front

2313
07:38:05.119 --> 07:38:12.799
of your thighs, and the backs of your thigh, noticing

2314
07:38:14.959 --> 07:38:32.040
and observing how your thighs feel right now. Moving your

2315
07:38:32.240 --> 07:38:40.520
focus to the back of your neck, just noticing the

2316
07:38:40.680 --> 07:38:46.840
back of your neck, the muscles, and of course they

2317
07:38:47.040 --> 07:38:51.479
lead to the side of your neck. They also lead

2318
07:38:51.880 --> 07:38:56.959
to the top of your back, which leads to your shoulders.

2319
07:38:58.599 --> 07:39:02.240
So as your focus on the back of your neck,

2320
07:39:04.240 --> 07:39:10.680
maybe you can move your head gently upwards as if

2321
07:39:10.720 --> 07:39:18.119
you're looking up. Maybe moving your head down as if

2322
07:39:18.200 --> 07:39:25.119
you're looking down. Perhaps moving your head side to side,

2323
07:39:26.279 --> 07:39:36.959
right to left, but only very slowly and very gently.

2324
07:39:39.479 --> 07:39:44.639
You're not trying to force anything. It has to be

2325
07:39:45.159 --> 07:39:58.400
very very gentle, just so you can be more in

2326
07:39:58.720 --> 07:40:10.200
touch with the feelings, with the sensations, the physical sensations

2327
07:40:10.479 --> 07:40:18.400
of how on the back of your neck feels right now.

2328
07:40:25.959 --> 07:40:26.360
As we.

2329
07:40:28.360 --> 07:40:37.000
Now focus on the tops of your arms, the parts

2330
07:40:37.119 --> 07:40:41.840
where your biceps and your triceps are between your elbow

2331
07:40:41.919 --> 07:40:50.520
and your shoulders. To focus on those parts, the tops

2332
07:40:50.599 --> 07:40:57.159
of your arms, you may like to just tense them,

2333
07:40:58.080 --> 07:41:09.000
but very very gently and slowly. See you're not straining

2334
07:41:09.400 --> 07:41:15.439
or putting any pressure whatsoever.

2335
07:41:16.319 --> 07:41:17.200
On your arms.

2336
07:41:19.919 --> 07:41:27.279
It's just slowly you can gain more of a sense

2337
07:41:27.560 --> 07:41:38.000
of how your upper arms are feeling in this moment.

2338
07:41:41.400 --> 07:41:54.000
Just noticing as you gently, very gently and slowly tighten

2339
07:41:54.240 --> 07:42:05.040
the muscles and then let go. Notice how the tops

2340
07:42:05.159 --> 07:42:20.639
of your arms feel right now, as in now, focus

2341
07:42:23.799 --> 07:42:31.360
on your stomach, the area the lower abdomen area below

2342
07:42:31.439 --> 07:42:40.200
your belly button, moving all the way down to your hips,

2343
07:42:41.319 --> 07:42:52.560
just above your grind. Maybe you're able to tense these

2344
07:42:52.759 --> 07:43:10.360
muscles in that area very very jam and slowly. If

2345
07:43:10.479 --> 07:43:14.880
that's a difficult thing to do, maybe you can just

2346
07:43:16.159 --> 07:43:25.560
move your body, pushing your stomach up, maybe moving a

2347
07:43:25.639 --> 07:43:31.319
little bit of a side, using your hips, just so

2348
07:43:32.599 --> 07:43:34.240
can get more.

2349
07:43:35.680 --> 07:43:36.919
In tune.

2350
07:43:38.319 --> 07:43:42.599
With how you're lower up to an area.

2351
07:43:46.080 --> 07:43:51.439
His feeling in this moment.

2352
07:43:58.000 --> 07:44:20.560
Just noticing the physical sensations or your lower abdomen as

2353
07:44:20.639 --> 07:44:34.200
you move your attention to your mouth, notice in your lips,

2354
07:44:36.240 --> 07:44:44.639
then inside your mouth, your teeth, your guns, your tongue.

2355
07:44:54.279 --> 07:45:02.919
Just noticing how your tongue and your mouth feels. It

2356
07:45:03.080 --> 07:45:12.080
may help by moving your tongue around your mouth, moving

2357
07:45:12.159 --> 07:45:19.520
it to your left, maybe pressing it gently against the

2358
07:45:19.799 --> 07:45:24.240
side of your mouth, and then to the right.

2359
07:45:25.560 --> 07:45:26.799
Gently to the.

2360
07:45:27.000 --> 07:45:34.880
Side of your mouth, perhaps pressing up against the top

2361
07:45:34.959 --> 07:45:41.919
of your mouth, and then down gently against the bottom

2362
07:45:42.000 --> 07:45:56.680
of your mouth, always very slowly and a very very gentle.

2363
07:46:01.119 --> 07:46:02.360
So that you can.

2364
07:46:05.919 --> 07:46:18.200
Be aware of how you feel in your mouth area.

2365
07:46:29.479 --> 07:46:50.040
Now get to focus on your wrists, and I'll ask

2366
07:46:50.240 --> 07:46:59.439
you to maybe just routine your wrists, moving your hands

2367
07:47:00.880 --> 07:47:14.279
in a circular motion very gently and slowly, just soly

2368
07:47:14.720 --> 07:47:35.919
can feel the sensations that you are currently experiencing in

2369
07:47:38.919 --> 07:47:49.319
your wrists. Perhaps smooth in your hands up and down

2370
07:47:52.000 --> 07:48:33.639
again very very gently and slowly, Harry gentz slow. Now

2371
07:48:36.240 --> 07:48:50.840
start to observe you lower back. The back part is

2372
07:48:52.479 --> 07:49:00.599
just above of your hips, were your cox six are

2373
07:49:08.040 --> 07:49:14.240
a whole area which also really does include the side

2374
07:49:15.200 --> 07:49:20.720
of your body, because those muscles are very much connected.

2375
07:49:26.000 --> 07:49:32.840
There's those muscles also move into your hip aia connect

2376
07:49:32.959 --> 07:49:38.479
into your buttocks the sides of.

2377
07:49:38.560 --> 07:49:53.159
Your hips, and if you're physically able to do so,

2378
07:49:55.400 --> 07:50:02.639
maybe you can very generally just move your body.

2379
07:50:04.959 --> 07:50:14.200
Eviss slightly, very slowly, some side to.

2380
07:50:14.439 --> 07:50:19.360
Side, just enough.

2381
07:50:21.840 --> 07:50:43.400
Ye gauge how you feel in your lower back. Perhaps

2382
07:50:43.599 --> 07:50:58.119
secretly move your hips gently up and down gently and

2383
07:50:58.840 --> 07:51:03.720
slowly in order to.

2384
07:51:08.159 --> 07:51:09.720
Be in touch.

2385
07:51:12.040 --> 07:51:35.799
With the physical sensations of your low back. As we know,

2386
07:51:41.200 --> 07:51:53.840
your attention to your joe an area utchin all the

2387
07:51:53.880 --> 07:51:57.840
way up to the ears are.

2388
07:52:00.880 --> 07:52:13.200
Oh of your jaw, you can.

2389
07:52:13.319 --> 07:52:22.159
Just it's okay to do so gently open your mouth

2390
07:52:25.040 --> 07:52:36.599
nor wide noice stretching. Just very gently and slowly opening

2391
07:52:36.799 --> 07:52:48.720
your mouth, having close in your mouth very gently and

2392
07:52:49.319 --> 07:53:43.680
slowly pain touch with how your jaw feels. Now, I'd

2393
07:53:43.759 --> 07:53:59.639
like to sit down chest around. You don't need to

2394
07:53:59.759 --> 07:54:08.000
do anything to move your chest because it moves every

2395
07:54:08.159 --> 07:54:24.919
time you breathe. It moves very gently and slowly automatically

2396
07:54:27.119 --> 07:54:41.200
with each breath you take. As you focus on how

2397
07:54:41.880 --> 07:55:25.799
your chest feels when you breathe, move in your focus

2398
07:55:27.759 --> 07:55:40.520
to your forearms with your elbows. Maybe you're able to

2399
07:55:43.319 --> 07:55:45.080
very gently.

2400
07:55:46.479 --> 07:55:48.520
And slowly.

2401
07:55:50.360 --> 07:55:58.880
Dense the muscles in your forearms, and when you do that,

2402
07:55:59.400 --> 07:56:22.959
you can feel your elbows as well, very gently and slowly,

2403
07:56:31.400 --> 07:57:11.319
gently and softly observing your forums and helpers, and a

2404
07:57:11.680 --> 07:57:30.319
focus the rest of your back, your upper back and

2405
07:57:30.680 --> 07:57:48.639
the middle the middle of your back. Again, this part

2406
07:57:48.840 --> 07:58:03.479
of your body moves also every time you pray. You

2407
07:58:03.759 --> 07:58:18.000
may known to sate. Usually a should serve your upper back.

2408
07:58:18.360 --> 07:58:25.959
In the middle of your back. You can really feel

2409
07:58:28.439 --> 07:59:25.479
that gento and low moving your focus into your hip area,

2410
07:59:29.040 --> 07:59:41.720
butts pray, there's muscles and those bones in your midsection.

2411
08:00:09.319 --> 08:00:29.279
Just noticing how your hips feel. Right now, you can

2412
08:00:31.840 --> 08:00:45.479
very very gently move your hips maybe side to side,

2413
08:00:47.000 --> 08:01:22.119
very gently, and so yeah, yeah, s.

2414
08:01:30.639 --> 08:01:30.680
M.

2415
08:01:37.400 --> 08:01:54.200
Everything starts to slow down, including the thoughts in your

2416
08:01:54.319 --> 08:02:06.080
mind and your mind itself just starts to gradually. It

2417
08:02:06.159 --> 08:02:12.639
doesn't have to be instant, but just gradually starting too.

2418
08:02:13.919 --> 08:02:22.720
It's almost like time is strength chin. It's a slower

2419
08:02:22.840 --> 08:02:30.720
pace to maybe what you're used to in your day

2420
08:02:30.799 --> 08:02:52.799
to day life. It's a slower movement of energy, very

2421
08:02:57.200 --> 08:03:05.639
small movements which make up the larger movements, which is

2422
08:03:05.680 --> 08:03:13.439
always the case. Now, when you move your hand, it

2423
08:03:13.599 --> 08:03:16.319
might seem like it's one movement, but it's lots of

2424
08:03:17.119 --> 08:03:24.560
minute different muscles moving in accordance with each other. And

2425
08:03:29.520 --> 08:03:41.840
what happens in this space that we're sharing is we

2426
08:03:42.080 --> 08:03:42.919
move from.

2427
08:03:45.599 --> 08:03:48.240
That big.

2428
08:03:52.680 --> 08:04:04.279
Movement into those smaller movements, starting to focus on.

2429
08:04:09.599 --> 08:04:15.840
How your body feels, not just as a whole, not

2430
08:04:16.119 --> 08:04:20.599
just oh i'm feel in this way, I'm feeling stressed

2431
08:04:20.799 --> 08:04:26.479
or tense, or I'm feeling relaxed and calm. I'm feeling

2432
08:04:26.639 --> 08:04:33.360
this way, I'm feeling that way. Starting to notice that

2433
08:04:33.520 --> 08:04:47.520
your body begins to present to you small feelings around

2434
08:04:47.599 --> 08:05:05.319
your body, small physical sensations in your legs, whether pleasurable

2435
08:05:06.560 --> 08:05:20.520
or not. Maybe resisting the temptation to label them or

2436
08:05:20.639 --> 08:05:28.400
to judge them, those feelings, just thinking them, thinking about

2437
08:05:28.439 --> 08:05:44.639
them is just being neutral, just feelings, not being particularly concerned,

2438
08:05:46.080 --> 08:06:01.159
just noticing what your body is telling you. The feelings

2439
08:06:01.200 --> 08:06:07.520
in your arms, instead of feeling the hole of the arm,

2440
08:06:08.959 --> 08:06:18.159
maybe notice those individual feelings, all those different muscles and

2441
08:06:22.319 --> 08:06:31.520
the skin, the hairs of your arms, all the internal

2442
08:06:31.639 --> 08:06:47.799
parts of your arms, the veins, the bones, just being

2443
08:06:47.880 --> 08:06:56.680
aware of maybe your elbow on your right arm has

2444
08:06:56.759 --> 08:07:08.080
a certain feeling. Maybe your left wrist also has its

2445
08:07:08.200 --> 08:07:28.919
own individual physical sensation. What about your forearm on your

2446
08:07:29.040 --> 08:07:41.360
right arm, your right forearm, there may not be any

2447
08:07:41.919 --> 08:07:49.119
particular feeling that you could even give a name to,

2448
08:07:52.880 --> 08:07:58.360
may not feel like anything other than just a feeling. Yeah,

2449
08:07:58.520 --> 08:08:10.959
it's there. The feelings in your shoulders, perhaps your shoulders

2450
08:08:11.040 --> 08:08:14.639
when you think about them, kind of almost like they're

2451
08:08:14.639 --> 08:08:21.240
the same you know, the same feeling almost like you

2452
08:08:21.560 --> 08:08:26.159
both of your shoulders are just one thing. Of course

2453
08:08:26.240 --> 08:08:37.560
they're not. And when you focus on your left shoulder

2454
08:08:40.279 --> 08:08:45.479
and then on your right shoulder, maybe find that you

2455
08:08:46.840 --> 08:08:51.919
move the muscles a little bit, maybe tense the muscles gently,

2456
08:08:57.520 --> 08:09:29.919
noticing the different in each shoulder, your lower back, the

2457
08:09:30.080 --> 08:09:34.159
left side of your lower back and the right side

2458
08:09:34.319 --> 08:09:45.000
of your lower back of course that connection to your

2459
08:09:45.040 --> 08:09:58.400
buttocks and to your hips, and also moving up into

2460
08:09:58.479 --> 08:10:11.360
the middle of your back. And sometimes like right now,

2461
08:10:11.520 --> 08:10:16.279
actually when I focus on that part, when I focused

2462
08:10:16.319 --> 08:10:22.200
on my buttocks and then I focused on the middle

2463
08:10:22.240 --> 08:10:25.119
of my back, it almost felt like the muscles in

2464
08:10:25.200 --> 08:10:35.240
my lower back were being stretched very gently, just stretched

2465
08:10:35.319 --> 08:10:41.880
a little bit. Even though I wasn't doing anything to

2466
08:10:43.240 --> 08:10:49.000
try to stretch your lower back, it just seemed to happen.

2467
08:10:50.200 --> 08:11:07.799
The feeling of very gently stretching your lower back comes along.

2468
08:11:11.520 --> 08:11:34.799
I have feeling in your chest, just noticing what sensations

2469
08:11:36.439 --> 08:11:54.080
you are experiencing in your chest right now. And there's

2470
08:11:54.159 --> 08:11:58.319
so much of the chest. Obviously, there's the collar bone

2471
08:11:58.479 --> 08:12:05.240
leading to the chest. You've got the chest bone, you've

2472
08:12:05.279 --> 08:12:13.599
got the muscles in your chest. Of course, if you're female,

2473
08:12:14.279 --> 08:12:21.479
there's possibly the breasts. If you're male, you've got the

2474
08:12:24.319 --> 08:12:29.880
different well might not that different these days, but there

2475
08:12:29.959 --> 08:12:35.119
may be more muscles at the top of the chest,

2476
08:12:38.520 --> 08:12:42.759
but at the side underneath it's pretty much the same.

2477
08:12:43.560 --> 08:12:46.599
Whether you're a man or a woman. There's muscles there,

2478
08:12:47.959 --> 08:12:53.119
muscles that stretch out to your back as well as

2479
08:12:53.200 --> 08:13:01.799
breast tissue stretches and moves into your back. To just

2480
08:13:01.919 --> 08:13:21.479
being aware of your chest, being with whatever feeling there

2481
08:13:21.599 --> 08:13:41.119
is in your chest. And when I noticed that, I

2482
08:13:41.279 --> 08:13:47.759
focus on my chest, I feel.

2483
08:13:47.479 --> 08:13:50.360
It in my back and my upper back.

2484
08:13:51.840 --> 08:13:54.880
I mean, I guess the obvious reason would be because

2485
08:13:54.959 --> 08:13:56.240
you know, I'm breathing.

2486
08:13:59.560 --> 08:14:01.000
M hm in.

2487
08:14:03.680 --> 08:14:06.840
And it stretches my chest and my back at the

2488
08:14:06.919 --> 08:14:30.680
same time. It feels it feels okay, doesn't feel a

2489
08:14:30.680 --> 08:14:37.200
little bit of pain in my right chest, A little

2490
08:14:37.240 --> 08:14:43.639
bit not pain, but little discomfort, maybe stiffness possibly, I

2491
08:14:43.759 --> 08:14:55.479
don't know. I notice my shoulders also wanting to flex

2492
08:14:55.599 --> 08:14:59.880
for some reason. I think that's probably part of my

2493
08:15:00.040 --> 08:15:08.240
my upper back, that connection between my shoulders and my

2494
08:15:08.360 --> 08:15:13.880
upper back, because I can move my shoulders and stretch

2495
08:15:14.040 --> 08:15:21.479
the muscles in my back. Moving the shoulders backwards or up,

2496
08:15:23.479 --> 08:15:29.880
which then moves. I think it's the scapulous in your back.

2497
08:15:39.919 --> 08:15:47.599
It feels quite nice. Actually, a good thing about this

2498
08:15:47.880 --> 08:15:52.680
is you can, if you want to, you can just

2499
08:15:56.240 --> 08:16:07.919
flex or stimulate the various muscles in your body gently

2500
08:16:09.360 --> 08:16:12.840
in order to get more of a sense of how

2501
08:16:12.919 --> 08:16:27.799
they feel. And when you're relaxing, when you do tense

2502
08:16:27.919 --> 08:16:31.840
and muscle and you let it go and you let

2503
08:16:31.919 --> 08:16:40.880
it relax, it relaxes way more than it would normally.

2504
08:16:45.840 --> 08:16:51.080
That you have to feel that you're able to do that.

2505
08:16:52.720 --> 08:16:56.520
There's no point in doing it if there's an issue

2506
08:16:58.400 --> 08:17:03.880
with the per part of your body. You need to

2507
08:17:03.959 --> 08:17:14.360
be gentle with yourself at all times when relaxing deeply.

2508
08:17:17.400 --> 08:17:32.639
It's important to be kind to yourself. As you notice

2509
08:17:32.840 --> 08:17:43.919
your mind. How much has your mind slowed down since

2510
08:17:44.000 --> 08:18:10.400
we started this recording. How came and peaceful is your

2511
08:18:10.479 --> 08:18:22.639
mind right now? We have nothing to think about and

2512
08:18:22.919 --> 08:18:30.319
just my voice to listen to. Because you know the

2513
08:18:30.520 --> 08:18:41.240
intention behind this recording, this relaxation, at the very least,

2514
08:18:42.799 --> 08:18:47.360
for you to feel more relaxed at the end of

2515
08:18:47.400 --> 08:18:55.639
the recording than you did at the beginning, at the

2516
08:18:55.799 --> 08:19:07.439
very least, for your mind to slow down because your

2517
08:19:07.560 --> 08:19:23.919
body continues to relax because that's what you want to happen.

2518
08:19:27.919 --> 08:19:30.880
That's what you expect.

2519
08:19:34.479 --> 08:19:35.400
To happen.

2520
08:19:41.159 --> 08:19:59.639
For relaxation, to fill your body, maybe calm in your mind,

2521
08:20:00.240 --> 08:20:08.159
h to the point of boredom. When you start maybe

2522
08:20:08.599 --> 08:20:55.040
to drift away, drifting, it's almost as if you're moving

2523
08:20:55.680 --> 08:21:03.560
further away from your body and your mind just leaving

2524
08:21:03.759 --> 08:21:15.720
that there, kind of liking it an escape pod and

2525
08:21:15.840 --> 08:21:20.159
a spaceship a movie, a space movie, you know when

2526
08:21:20.200 --> 08:21:24.040
they get into a little part in it, since the

2527
08:21:24.159 --> 08:21:48.680
man far away from the spaceship, safe to dream and

2528
08:21:48.919 --> 08:23:22.080
continue to relax, drifting silk and peace so relaxed and peaceful,

2529
08:23:43.000 --> 08:23:57.439
and focusing on that feeling of those individual parts of

2530
08:23:57.560 --> 08:24:14.040
your body that's or relaxing. One by one, you may

2531
08:24:15.880 --> 08:24:29.599
find that every now and then you realize that you

2532
08:24:29.759 --> 08:24:38.360
weren't listening to my voice because your mind started to

2533
08:24:38.639 --> 08:24:53.840
imagine something different, maybe started to almost move into some

2534
08:24:54.159 --> 08:25:02.599
kind of a dreamy state, and then you become aware

2535
08:25:02.799 --> 08:25:12.040
of my voice again. And even though you may want

2536
08:25:12.240 --> 08:25:17.159
to focus on my voice, you may also wish to

2537
08:25:19.680 --> 08:25:31.279
allow your mind to just drift naturally into that space

2538
08:25:31.560 --> 08:25:55.560
of comfort and safety as you feel more comfort spreading

2539
08:25:55.919 --> 08:26:13.759
through your body, warm blanket covering you gentlin, keeping your body.

2540
08:26:13.880 --> 08:26:14.639
It just.

2541
08:26:17.319 --> 08:26:34.799
The perfect temperature. And even if you can hear background sounds,

2542
08:26:40.360 --> 08:26:52.720
they just don't seem to matter anymore. There's that sense

2543
08:26:52.799 --> 08:27:09.240
of peace spreads through your mind like a gentle breeze,

2544
08:27:12.240 --> 08:27:24.880
yet strong enough to blow away all negativity, strong enough

2545
08:27:25.000 --> 08:27:38.319
to remove from your mind any anxiety or stress that

2546
08:27:38.599 --> 08:27:52.840
was there before, and blow away any other thoughts or

2547
08:27:53.159 --> 08:28:14.560
feelings that just don't fit with the sense relaxation that

2548
08:28:19.680 --> 08:28:44.439
is feeling your body and your mind. And as you

2549
08:28:44.599 --> 08:28:51.919
focus on your mind and countdown from ten down to one,

2550
08:28:53.279 --> 08:29:03.680
and with each number you hear, your mind will become

2551
08:29:09.720 --> 08:29:30.080
slightly more relaxed, just just slightly, from ten down to nine,

2552
08:29:30.880 --> 08:29:37.799
just a slight movement from nine down to eight, just

2553
08:29:37.919 --> 08:29:55.000
another small change in how you feel. Eight down to seven.

2554
08:29:57.759 --> 08:30:02.959
I have feeling this a gap, almost like a gap

2555
08:30:03.159 --> 08:30:11.479
that starts to get wider, the gap between those feelings

2556
08:30:13.159 --> 08:30:20.119
that you used to have in your mind compared to

2557
08:30:20.319 --> 08:30:26.840
the feelings you have that are growing now, feelings of

2558
08:30:27.080 --> 08:30:37.759
comfort and security and confidence. And the gap becomes wider.

2559
08:30:39.400 --> 08:30:46.599
Eight down to seven, seven down to six. And when

2560
08:30:46.639 --> 08:30:52.880
you get to five, your mind will start to have

2561
08:30:53.080 --> 08:31:06.560
a certain physical sensation, almost like there's a magnet outside

2562
08:31:06.680 --> 08:31:12.720
of your head sucking the tension and the stress and

2563
08:31:12.840 --> 08:31:20.000
any remaining feelings that you don't want, sucking them out

2564
08:31:20.479 --> 08:31:30.840
through your skull. And in down to four you could

2565
08:31:31.000 --> 08:31:39.279
start to really experience that sense of not just emptiness,

2566
08:31:39.520 --> 08:31:53.360
but space, a place full of fresh air, place where

2567
08:31:53.400 --> 08:31:59.799
you can stretch. It's almost as if as you go

2568
08:32:00.080 --> 08:32:05.439
down to four and three, your mind is expanding, with

2569
08:32:05.840 --> 08:32:07.919
this sense.

2570
08:32:10.520 --> 08:32:11.880
Of peace.

2571
08:32:13.240 --> 08:32:23.560
And tranquility growing as it moves down to When you

2572
08:32:23.639 --> 08:32:33.639
get to one, mind just feels exactly how you want

2573
08:32:33.799 --> 08:32:53.479
to feel, almost perfect feeling, maybe a sensation that.

2574
08:32:55.119 --> 08:32:56.479
You'd like to keep.

2575
08:32:59.520 --> 08:33:10.360
A place that's safe, where nothing can affect you at all,

2576
08:33:22.080 --> 08:33:26.759
and you can stay in that that space of comfort

2577
08:33:26.880 --> 08:33:36.599
and confidence, confident in your own ability to create this

2578
08:33:37.520 --> 08:33:43.520
space and this feeling of comfort within your own mind

2579
08:33:45.080 --> 08:33:55.040
just by counting ten down to one. And this is

2580
08:33:55.159 --> 08:33:59.799
something that you can do yourself when you're on your own,

2581
08:34:04.720 --> 08:34:08.639
a time when you can maybe sit down, maybe just

2582
08:34:08.720 --> 08:34:19.799
for a few minutes, close your eyes. It just counts

2583
08:34:20.240 --> 08:34:33.840
slowly from ten down to one and re experience these

2584
08:34:34.040 --> 08:34:44.400
feelings in your mind. And when you feel that way

2585
08:34:44.520 --> 08:34:59.479
in your mind, your body copies your mind, and that

2586
08:35:00.439 --> 08:35:07.279
it's spread through your spine and your nervous system into

2587
08:35:07.680 --> 08:35:14.319
every part of your body, travels through your blood stream,

2588
08:35:19.919 --> 08:35:40.400
healing and relaxing every particle of your existence. And we

2589
08:35:40.520 --> 08:35:49.720
can practice this a few times before the end of

2590
08:35:49.759 --> 08:35:54.520
the recording, and then you can practice on your own.

2591
08:35:56.639 --> 08:36:06.360
And each time you count from ten about one, the

2592
08:36:06.560 --> 08:36:19.959
feelings of comfort, calmness, deep deep relaxation becomes stronger and

2593
08:36:20.720 --> 08:36:35.959
deeper feeling your mind and your brain with these positive

2594
08:36:36.279 --> 08:36:48.919
chemicals spread throughout your body, relaxing you so quickly, relaxing

2595
08:36:49.080 --> 08:37:00.720
your whole body and mind so very, very easily just

2596
08:37:01.080 --> 08:37:13.400
by counting from ten down to one. So we're going

2597
08:37:13.479 --> 08:37:16.599
to do it now. I'm going to count from ten

2598
08:37:16.840 --> 08:37:21.200
down to one. I'd like you to repeat the number

2599
08:37:21.439 --> 08:37:27.880
after me. So when I say ten, you can just

2600
08:37:28.000 --> 08:37:30.479
repeat to yourself.

2601
08:37:31.919 --> 08:37:32.159
Ten.

2602
08:37:37.759 --> 08:37:47.119
Just notice, be aware of how you feel in your

2603
08:37:47.240 --> 08:37:56.799
mind and your body, and when I say nine, you

2604
08:37:56.880 --> 08:38:12.720
can repeat to yourself. Nine became noticing the increase in

2605
08:38:12.919 --> 08:38:20.880
comfort and calmness in your mind and in your body,

2606
08:38:26.880 --> 08:38:36.319
the same when I say eight, when I say seven, six,

2607
08:38:38.840 --> 08:38:53.159
when I say five, four, when I say three, two,

2608
08:38:57.520 --> 08:39:11.360
and lastly when I say one, you can repeat that number. Now,

2609
08:39:11.479 --> 08:39:17.040
of course, when you do this on your own without

2610
08:39:17.159 --> 08:39:22.159
listening to me, you can say the numbers or whatever

2611
08:39:23.759 --> 08:39:32.240
speed that you feel is necessary for you, so you

2612
08:39:32.360 --> 08:39:38.159
can adapt. So if you feel you want to say

2613
08:39:38.279 --> 08:39:44.119
the numbers ten down to one faster than I do,

2614
08:39:45.880 --> 08:39:48.439
then you go ahead and do that. Or if you

2615
08:39:48.639 --> 08:39:52.639
feel when you do it yourself that you'd like to

2616
08:39:52.880 --> 08:40:01.200
have more more space between the numbers, maybe take a

2617
08:40:01.319 --> 08:40:08.119
lot longer to get from ten all the way down

2618
08:40:08.759 --> 08:40:25.759
to one, that's your choice also to do. So I'm

2619
08:40:25.799 --> 08:40:34.240
going to count from ten down to one, and when

2620
08:40:34.279 --> 08:40:38.040
I get to one, that will be the end of

2621
08:40:38.200 --> 08:40:45.000
this recording, unless, of course, you're listening with music, then

2622
08:40:45.040 --> 08:45:57.159
the music will continue. Ten no fight fis twenty nineteen, eighteen, seventeen, sixteen, fifteen, fourteen,

2623
08:46:01.159 --> 08:46:47.119
thirty twelve eleven, ten nine eight, seven, six, five, four,

2624
08:46:51.439 --> 08:47:19.680
three two one. Now open your eyes, noticing how you

2625
08:47:19.799 --> 08:47:28.200
physically feel having counted down from twenty to one, allowing

2626
08:47:29.000 --> 08:47:33.400
stress tension to leave through your fingertips and your toast.

2627
08:47:34.959 --> 08:47:39.639
And as you focus on your fingertips maybe they feel

2628
08:47:39.639 --> 08:47:46.439
a little bit tingly, which is I suppose quite understanding,

2629
08:47:46.599 --> 08:47:51.680
considering the tension has been exiting your body through your fingertips.

2630
08:47:58.159 --> 08:48:00.799
So now I'm going to count from twenty to one again.

2631
08:48:01.240 --> 08:48:10.200
This time you can feel relief of tension and stress,

2632
08:48:11.720 --> 08:48:21.439
any anxiety that you may have leaving through your stomach,

2633
08:48:24.040 --> 08:48:27.759
just leaving through your stomach, almost as if it's just

2634
08:48:28.799 --> 08:48:35.880
releasing the whole of your stomach, your navel to just

2635
08:48:36.000 --> 08:48:40.240
above your chest or below your chest, rather so surrounding

2636
08:48:40.319 --> 08:48:45.479
your belly button area, the whole area. You can feel

2637
08:48:45.720 --> 08:48:51.080
the tension of your body where it's left, just releasing

2638
08:48:52.240 --> 08:48:55.560
from that area, and you may notice that your stomach

2639
08:48:55.599 --> 08:49:02.880
will become very relaxed as I countdown from twenty down

2640
08:49:02.959 --> 08:50:30.040
to one now twenty nineteen, eighteen, seventeen, sixteen, fifteen, fourteen, thirteen, twelve, eleven, ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five, four, three.

2641
08:50:34.279 --> 08:50:34.479
Two.

2642
08:50:39.759 --> 08:50:46.959
What You can open your eyes again if you choose,

2643
08:50:47.520 --> 08:50:51.159
or you can just keep them closed because it feels relaxing.

2644
08:50:53.479 --> 08:50:58.599
Just notice saying his stomach feels I notice as your focus,

2645
08:50:58.880 --> 08:51:04.240
just do the scared of your body. Just notice how

2646
08:51:04.360 --> 08:51:17.240
your body feels, focusing upper body, back, chest, stomach, lax arms, hands, feet,

2647
08:51:20.240 --> 08:51:27.200
just noticing, and you know, you may start to film

2648
08:51:29.639 --> 08:51:33.439
more of a sense of tiredness, which may be the

2649
08:51:33.560 --> 08:51:39.599
reason of listening to this recording, because you would like

2650
08:51:39.840 --> 08:51:49.319
to let go completely of everything and drift off into

2651
08:51:49.439 --> 08:52:04.400
a nice, natural, calm, relaxing sleep. So now we're going

2652
08:52:04.439 --> 08:52:13.919
to focus on your forehead, and if you choose, you

2653
08:52:14.000 --> 08:52:19.080
can incorporate your eyes in this focus as well. Your

2654
08:52:19.159 --> 08:52:25.759
forehead and your eyes. It's that whole area basically, almost

2655
08:52:25.799 --> 08:52:28.520
as if you were wearing a mask, you know, like

2656
08:52:28.680 --> 08:52:33.840
a I don't know, a Batman mask or something, or

2657
08:52:35.959 --> 08:52:38.880
I'm trying to sorrow or something, you know, the kind

2658
08:52:38.919 --> 08:52:42.080
of mask that covers your eyes, but also covers quite

2659
08:52:42.080 --> 08:52:48.959
a lot of the forehead. Focusing on that area because

2660
08:52:48.959 --> 08:52:52.279
that's the area that we're now going to release tension,

2661
08:52:52.720 --> 08:52:58.200
stress from your mind, your brain, from your mind, and

2662
08:52:58.919 --> 08:53:03.479
any tension that you may have remain your face, in

2663
08:53:03.560 --> 08:53:09.599
your neck and your jaw, your eyes, your forehead, or

2664
08:53:09.680 --> 08:53:15.880
your scalp. So basically any tension within your head area,

2665
08:53:16.599 --> 08:53:23.759
including your mind and your brain, that's going to be

2666
08:53:23.919 --> 08:53:32.319
released through your forehead and your eyes. As I count

2667
08:53:32.400 --> 08:54:49.560
down again from twenty down to one, Now twenty nineteen, eighteen, seventeen, sixteen, fifteen, fourteen, thirteen, twelve, eleven, ten, nine, eight, seven.

2668
08:54:53.799 --> 08:54:54.439
Six.

2669
08:54:58.240 --> 08:55:04.520
Five, War.

2670
08:55:08.520 --> 08:55:08.799
Three.

2671
08:55:18.319 --> 08:55:34.959
What noticing as you scared your face with jaw, your eyes,

2672
08:55:36.319 --> 08:55:47.159
the cheap bones, your ears, the forehead, your scalp, your neck, backing,

2673
08:55:47.200 --> 08:55:51.479
your neck, front of your neck, the side of your neck,

2674
08:55:51.639 --> 08:56:05.439
and your throat. Noticing being aware of the comfort increased

2675
08:56:06.000 --> 08:56:15.360
the relaxation, not just in your head and neck and mind,

2676
08:56:16.400 --> 08:56:26.880
also the rest of your body. Notice how loose, how

2677
08:56:27.080 --> 08:56:33.439
calm you film, and how easily it is to just

2678
08:56:33.639 --> 08:56:34.000
let go.

2679
08:56:36.840 --> 08:56:52.560
Completely, let go completely, how easily.

2680
08:57:00.360 --> 08:57:03.479
So what I'm gonna do about is I wanted to

2681
08:57:03.639 --> 08:57:11.439
focus on the top of your head, and we're gonna

2682
08:57:11.520 --> 08:57:20.680
allow every last piece of tension or stress the mind

2683
08:57:21.880 --> 08:57:27.200
be lingering or hiding in your body or mind my

2684
08:57:27.400 --> 08:57:34.040
head to just be sucked out on the top of

2685
08:57:34.159 --> 08:57:43.959
your head and released into the air. I wanta sucked

2686
08:57:44.040 --> 08:57:50.439
down into the clouds, a big cloud above your head.

2687
08:57:52.639 --> 08:57:57.599
It's like a whirlpool. It's it's gonna suck that at tension.

2688
08:57:58.759 --> 08:58:00.000
Our the top of your head.

2689
08:58:00.040 --> 08:58:11.479
Head, just take it away, good your focus. Imagine an

2690
08:58:11.639 --> 08:58:15.919
opening on the top of your head with a tension

2691
08:58:16.040 --> 08:58:21.919
and stress and any remaining issues, maybe worries of incerns

2692
08:58:22.159 --> 08:58:25.919
that are no use to you. Now you can all

2693
08:58:26.080 --> 08:58:30.040
be sucked down at the top of your head have

2694
08:58:30.279 --> 08:58:36.560
taken away. As I count down again, I'm twenty down

2695
08:58:36.759 --> 08:59:23.439
to one now, twenty nineteen, eighteen, seventy, sixteen fifty fourteen

2696
08:59:29.279 --> 09:00:29.560
thirty to twelve even ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five, four, three,

2697
09:00:33.919 --> 09:01:05.360
two one three. Noticing how you feel, how relaxed and

2698
09:01:05.720 --> 09:01:20.119
calm you physically and mentally feel right now, how peaceful

2699
09:01:22.240 --> 09:01:28.959
your mind feels. It feels so nice to just let go,

2700
09:01:31.240 --> 09:01:40.520
to give yourself some space to breathe easily, to think calmly,

2701
09:01:45.639 --> 09:01:50.759
just to take a break from all that pointless worry

2702
09:01:52.279 --> 09:01:56.599
concerns about things that you don't need to think about

2703
09:01:59.759 --> 09:02:07.119
right now, because this is your time to let go.

2704
09:02:08.520 --> 09:02:18.279
This is your space to enjoy feeling deeply relaxed, peaceful

2705
09:02:18.400 --> 09:02:25.680
in your mind, relaxed in your body. They can feel

2706
09:02:26.240 --> 09:02:36.040
so good, so nice to just not have to do anything,

2707
09:02:38.360 --> 09:02:47.279
to be able to really enjoy that serenity that comes

2708
09:02:48.840 --> 09:03:01.919
of letting go completely, that peacefulness that comes with being

2709
09:03:02.560 --> 09:03:13.840
in this peaceful space, and you can keep this sense

2710
09:03:14.040 --> 09:03:25.880
of calmness for as long as you choose. If you

2711
09:03:26.159 --> 09:03:32.840
choose to drift off into a deep, healing, natural sleep,

2712
09:03:34.119 --> 09:03:40.799
then you can do that. It's completely up to you,

2713
09:03:45.599 --> 09:03:50.319
and you can keep this feeling of calmness physically and

2714
09:03:50.400 --> 09:03:55.880
in your mind for as long as you choose to

2715
09:03:56.080 --> 09:04:11.360
feel completely relaxed, completely relax. And I'd like you to

2716
09:04:11.880 --> 09:04:25.759
make up your mind that you're going to relax, and

2717
09:04:25.799 --> 09:04:29.000
I want to explore that with you. What it feels

2718
09:04:29.159 --> 09:04:36.000
like when you actually decide that you're going to relax,

2719
09:04:37.680 --> 09:04:44.279
not forcing yourself, but giving yourself that. Yes, it is

2720
09:04:44.360 --> 09:04:49.319
a command, really, isn't it. When you're telling yourself relax

2721
09:04:51.520 --> 09:04:56.759
in a gentle but firm way, that only you can

2722
09:04:56.880 --> 09:05:01.799
really tell yourself in that way. You can't only have

2723
09:05:01.919 --> 09:05:06.560
someone else saying to you, now it relax, relax, you know,

2724
09:05:07.560 --> 09:05:10.799
and it needs to be gentle, but you can't. Someone

2725
09:05:10.840 --> 09:05:17.840
else can't really have the same the same kind of

2726
09:05:18.479 --> 09:05:27.439
influence or power that you have over your own physicality,

2727
09:05:28.240 --> 09:05:37.919
over how you feel, because when you say it to yourself,

2728
09:05:39.200 --> 09:05:46.159
it means more. It's personal, and your brain and your

2729
09:05:46.599 --> 09:05:53.639
unconscious mind and your body listens to what you say. So,

2730
09:05:53.959 --> 09:05:57.720
for example, we'll test it out and do a little test.

2731
09:05:57.840 --> 09:06:01.479
If your little tests along the way, and you can

2732
09:06:01.599 --> 09:06:07.880
get more of an idea of the force, a positive

2733
09:06:08.080 --> 09:06:14.480
force that you can have in creating a sense of

2734
09:06:14.800 --> 09:06:20.279
comfort and relaxation in your body and your mind quite quickly,

2735
09:06:22.080 --> 09:06:32.760
just by you telling yourself to relax. So I'm going

2736
09:06:32.839 --> 09:06:39.800
to start by it's focus on your hands. So focus

2737
09:06:39.879 --> 09:06:42.519
on your hands and just tell your hands to relax.

2738
09:06:43.519 --> 09:06:48.440
I just say relax. As you focus on your hands,

2739
09:06:50.680 --> 09:06:55.239
you could say my hands are relaxed, or I want

2740
09:06:55.279 --> 09:06:59.559
my hands to relax. I think if you actually do

2741
09:06:59.680 --> 09:07:07.720
it directly by focusing and imagining that your hands can

2742
09:07:07.959 --> 09:07:10.599
hear what you're saying. You know they've got little ears,

2743
09:07:11.400 --> 09:07:16.480
which is a little weird. So talking to your hands

2744
09:07:17.239 --> 09:07:33.559
and just say relax, medicine. Now your hands start to relax.

2745
09:07:45.959 --> 09:07:49.480
Now focus on your eyes and tell your eyes to relax.

2746
09:07:50.639 --> 09:07:55.400
You're just saying the same word relax. And find the

2747
09:07:55.599 --> 09:08:03.000
right tone for you. You know, I might say relax,

2748
09:08:03.720 --> 09:08:11.800
but you you might say relax or relax. You know,

2749
09:08:12.120 --> 09:08:17.760
you might say it differently to yourself, and that's important

2750
09:08:18.639 --> 09:08:24.760
for you to gauge what feels right for you. To

2751
09:08:24.959 --> 09:08:30.160
just tell your eyes to relax. Whilst focusing on your eyes,

2752
09:08:30.639 --> 09:08:35.360
your eyelids, the muscles around your eyes, your eyebrows, and

2753
09:08:35.599 --> 09:08:42.239
just tell your eyes directly relax.

2754
09:08:43.720 --> 09:08:43.879
Now.

2755
09:09:10.680 --> 09:09:20.839
Now, I just did that myself, and sometimes you may

2756
09:09:20.959 --> 09:09:25.599
feel that you need a bit more time for the

2757
09:09:25.720 --> 09:09:29.400
different parts to relax, you know, because I started talking

2758
09:09:29.480 --> 09:09:34.760
again and maybe that part hasn't relaxed fully. But what

2759
09:09:34.839 --> 09:09:37.239
will happen is that it will just continue to relax

2760
09:09:37.319 --> 09:09:44.800
even though I'm talking. That's happened with my eyes. Something

2761
09:09:44.879 --> 09:09:49.680
else I noticed is when I started focusing on my eyes,

2762
09:09:49.959 --> 09:09:53.480
that actually almost became They got worse before they got

2763
09:09:53.559 --> 09:09:56.519
better in a way. So I felt a degree of

2764
09:09:56.720 --> 09:10:03.279
tension growing in my eyes and then disappearing. So I

2765
09:10:03.440 --> 09:10:06.319
think what that was really was just ME becoming more

2766
09:10:06.400 --> 09:10:13.040
aware of the tension that was already there that I wasn't.

2767
09:10:14.040 --> 09:10:17.959
I wasn't focused on it before, so I wasn't really

2768
09:10:18.720 --> 09:10:36.080
acknowledging it or really conscious to those feelings. Yeah, my

2769
09:10:36.199 --> 09:10:40.400
eyes is still continuing to relax, as well as my hands. Actually,

2770
09:10:43.839 --> 09:10:49.239
my hands have got a certain kind of energy, like

2771
09:10:49.480 --> 09:10:54.639
not buzzing, but I can kind of feel a degree

2772
09:10:54.720 --> 09:11:00.800
of energy in my hands. Maybe that's where the tensions

2773
09:11:00.879 --> 09:11:12.720
being released. That's the cause in that the next part,

2774
09:11:12.839 --> 09:11:15.000
I think we should focus on the back of the neck.

2775
09:11:15.680 --> 09:11:20.879
That's the part was quite often well for me, holds tension.

2776
09:11:20.919 --> 09:11:23.720
I don't know about for yourself, but I think it's

2777
09:11:23.839 --> 09:11:30.160
quite a standard place where tension is sometimes held. So

2778
09:11:32.279 --> 09:11:35.400
and I'm doing exactly what you're doing as you do

2779
09:11:35.519 --> 09:11:39.080
it as well, so I'm telling my body parts to

2780
09:11:39.239 --> 09:11:42.199
relax as well. So if you tell your neck the

2781
09:11:42.319 --> 09:11:45.120
back of your neck, focus on the back of your neck,

2782
09:11:45.279 --> 09:11:52.199
and just say relax in your own words, in your

2783
09:11:52.279 --> 09:11:55.879
own tone, in your own voice. You can say out loud,

2784
09:11:56.040 --> 09:12:00.239
or you can just say it to yourself internally. But

2785
09:12:00.360 --> 09:12:04.959
you're focusing, and you're saying it literally to the back

2786
09:12:05.000 --> 09:12:07.760
of your neck, as if the back of your neck

2787
09:12:07.919 --> 09:12:14.519
can actually hear what you're saying. So do that now,

2788
09:12:14.760 --> 09:12:18.959
Just say relax to the back of your neck, and

2789
09:12:19.080 --> 09:13:00.680
I'll do the same. Now. What I noticed still you

2790
09:13:00.879 --> 09:13:05.519
may have had similar thing is even though I was

2791
09:13:05.639 --> 09:13:14.239
focusing on the back of my neck, other parts started

2792
09:13:14.319 --> 09:13:20.519
to I don't know, showed themselves to me or maybe

2793
09:13:20.760 --> 09:13:23.400
because they want to be relaxed as well. But I

2794
09:13:23.519 --> 09:13:27.519
started noticing the feelings in my shoulders at tension in

2795
09:13:27.599 --> 09:13:33.279
my shoulders and in my upper back. Whether that was

2796
09:13:33.400 --> 09:13:38.760
because my back of my neck was saying, well, I'm

2797
09:13:38.760 --> 09:13:43.599
pretty much okay. It's the other parts that need attention.

2798
09:13:50.000 --> 09:13:53.000
But my low back of my neck is still relaxing.

2799
09:13:54.480 --> 09:13:56.959
But I just became more aware of other parts that

2800
09:13:57.199 --> 09:14:05.839
needed attention. Now, this might happen, and it's not. It

2801
09:14:05.919 --> 09:14:09.360
doesn't mean that it's going wrong. It just means you're

2802
09:14:09.440 --> 09:14:16.120
being notified with more places that also want to feel relaxed.

2803
09:14:19.360 --> 09:14:23.720
So I'm going to focus on my upper back. So

2804
09:14:23.919 --> 09:14:27.559
you can do the same even if you don't have

2805
09:14:27.720 --> 09:14:32.360
any feelings of tension that are obvious.

2806
09:14:32.160 --> 09:14:33.080
In your upper back.

2807
09:14:35.040 --> 09:14:39.879
You just focus on your back and the whole area

2808
09:14:40.040 --> 09:14:44.559
from the shoulder blades down to the middle of your

2809
09:14:44.599 --> 09:14:48.839
back that your spine. And with me, it's more the

2810
09:14:48.959 --> 09:14:56.959
shoulder blades more. Yeah, that's the parts that are really

2811
09:14:59.040 --> 09:15:00.760
sort of given me.

2812
09:15:02.440 --> 09:15:02.800
The not.

2813
09:15:04.720 --> 09:15:07.160
That it needs relaxing, and so it's gonna ask that

2814
09:15:07.319 --> 09:15:10.639
one to relax and you can do the same. Now,

2815
09:15:21.839 --> 09:15:37.760
relax up the back. There's something strange happened there, and

2816
09:15:37.919 --> 09:15:40.360
this often happens.

2817
09:15:40.440 --> 09:15:41.319
I've been doing this for.

2818
09:15:43.879 --> 09:15:50.040
Over sixteen years or something. And often I'm on't surprised

2819
09:15:50.919 --> 09:15:57.720
that amazed really that there can be a feeling. So

2820
09:15:57.919 --> 09:16:00.519
when I was focusing on the back from my neck,

2821
09:16:01.400 --> 09:16:05.519
my upper back was starting to feel quite stressed and

2822
09:16:06.279 --> 09:16:11.839
in need of attention. As soon as I started talking

2823
09:16:12.000 --> 09:16:16.879
to you about my upper back and talking about, you know,

2824
09:16:17.360 --> 09:16:22.360
getting ready to ask the upper back to relax, why

2825
09:16:22.480 --> 09:16:28.120
the back already started to relax. It's almost as if

2826
09:16:28.160 --> 09:16:33.760
it doesn't need to hear the words, just needs intention,

2827
09:16:38.559 --> 09:16:50.599
just needs to be noticed. That is something that often

2828
09:16:50.800 --> 09:16:57.760
happens in this type of situation is when you start

2829
09:16:58.839 --> 09:17:03.839
to relax a couple of parts of your body, as

2830
09:17:03.879 --> 09:17:10.279
we've done with our hands, our eyes and eyelids, and

2831
09:17:10.559 --> 09:17:19.720
now back of the neck, top of the back, upper back,

2832
09:17:21.040 --> 09:17:25.000
the rest of the body seems to just take notice

2833
09:17:27.760 --> 09:17:36.000
and decide in its own way to start relaxing. Other

2834
09:17:36.160 --> 09:17:46.000
parts of your body start to just become looser. I

2835
09:17:46.120 --> 09:17:48.760
suppose it's kind of like a bit of an avalanche,

2836
09:17:48.959 --> 09:17:54.040
you know, the little ball starts rolling. Before you know it,

2837
09:17:54.160 --> 09:17:57.400
the whole of your body is completely relaxed and can't

2838
09:18:06.559 --> 09:18:14.160
and you can focus on your face. You focus on

2839
09:18:14.239 --> 09:18:22.879
your eyes, your eyelids, your eyebrows and the muscles around

2840
09:18:22.959 --> 09:18:32.480
your eyes. Maybe you start to notice that your forehead

2841
09:18:32.800 --> 09:18:37.440
is more relaxed than it was, Maybe your face is

2842
09:18:37.559 --> 09:18:44.239
more relaxed. I would say my entire face is a

2843
09:18:44.319 --> 09:18:57.720
lot more relaxed than it was. So we're going to

2844
09:18:57.800 --> 09:19:04.000
focus now on your should orders again, just like before.

2845
09:19:05.400 --> 09:19:09.400
Just tell your shoulders and you can do them individually.

2846
09:19:09.519 --> 09:19:13.239
You can do the right shoulder and left shoulder. I

2847
09:19:13.440 --> 09:19:17.440
just did do both at the same time. And just

2848
09:19:17.599 --> 09:19:21.160
tell your shoulders as you focus on them in your mind,

2849
09:19:22.519 --> 09:19:27.440
focus on them how they feel. Maybe you can see

2850
09:19:27.559 --> 09:19:34.440
them in your mind's eye. Just tell your shoulders.

2851
09:19:37.680 --> 09:19:38.839
To relax.

2852
09:20:15.959 --> 09:20:32.239
As nice as they relax. But I didn't notice, especially

2853
09:20:32.319 --> 09:20:38.760
with my back, is the connection between the different parts

2854
09:20:40.279 --> 09:20:50.000
the back, the shoulders, the neck being all connected and

2855
09:20:50.239 --> 09:20:56.519
being such a large part of your body, it's all

2856
09:20:56.599 --> 09:21:04.720
it's hard to separate them from each other. And my

2857
09:21:04.919 --> 09:21:13.760
lower back is starting to relax on its own. Maybe

2858
09:21:13.839 --> 09:21:18.599
I'm going too slow and that could be an issue

2859
09:21:19.480 --> 09:21:26.279
because we all go at different speeds. And the idea

2860
09:21:26.360 --> 09:21:29.000
of the beginning of this recording was for you to

2861
09:21:29.080 --> 09:21:44.599
be able to just say to yourself, relax without focusing

2862
09:21:44.720 --> 09:21:50.360
on any particular part of your body. Because when you

2863
09:21:50.559 --> 09:22:01.400
know that tenning your hands to relax, your hands relax.

2864
09:22:03.959 --> 09:22:10.639
You tell your eyelids and your eyes and muscles around

2865
09:22:10.760 --> 09:22:20.199
your eyes and your eyebrows to relax, and they relax.

2866
09:22:25.959 --> 09:22:37.120
You tell the back of your neck to relax, and

2867
09:22:37.599 --> 09:23:04.959
it relaxes. You tell your upper back to relax, and

2868
09:23:05.199 --> 09:23:15.839
they relaxes. You tell your shoulders.

2869
09:23:17.199 --> 09:23:29.360
To relax, they relax.

2870
09:23:53.040 --> 09:23:57.120
You told your hands to relax, they relaxed and they

2871
09:23:57.239 --> 09:24:10.839
continued re ax. When you told your eyelids, the muscles

2872
09:24:10.879 --> 09:24:21.400
around your eyes, your eyebrows to relax, they relaxed and

2873
09:24:21.680 --> 09:24:32.879
continue to relax. When you told the back of your neck,

2874
09:24:34.239 --> 09:24:40.040
focused on the back of your neck and told it

2875
09:24:40.160 --> 09:24:59.680
to relax, the relaxed and continued to relax. And you

2876
09:24:59.800 --> 09:25:09.239
told towards your upper back to relax, it relaxed and

2877
09:25:09.400 --> 09:25:25.680
continued to relax. That's with your shoulders. You told your

2878
09:25:25.760 --> 09:25:39.720
shoulders to relax, and your shoulders relaxed and continued to relax.

2879
09:25:45.400 --> 09:25:50.319
And it's not just that, it's.

2880
09:25:53.000 --> 09:25:57.440
That the rest of your body has also been listening,

2881
09:25:59.120 --> 09:26:05.199
and they're really vexation has been spreading. So from your eyes,

2882
09:26:05.559 --> 09:26:12.959
the relaxation spread to your forehead, around your face, into

2883
09:26:13.040 --> 09:26:26.919
your skin, into your jaw, into the fronts and sides

2884
09:26:27.000 --> 09:26:31.760
of your neck, all way down your chest and stomach,

2885
09:26:38.440 --> 09:26:40.839
your relaxed hands and shoulders.

2886
09:26:42.839 --> 09:26:45.879
Let up through your arms.

2887
09:26:46.279 --> 09:26:58.239
Relaxing your fearms, your upper arms, elbows, your wrists, let's

2888
09:26:58.400 --> 09:27:15.919
your lower back, your hips, buttocks gray, or just start

2889
09:27:16.080 --> 09:27:24.319
to relax or continue in more comfort spreading through your

2890
09:27:24.480 --> 09:27:38.519
legs all the way down to your ankles, the tops

2891
09:27:38.599 --> 09:27:44.040
of your feet, the sight of your feet, and the

2892
09:27:44.120 --> 09:27:59.319
bottoms of your feet. Relex into your toes, each toe

2893
09:28:04.559 --> 09:28:24.519
come please, And as your body relaxes more, your mind

2894
09:28:26.199 --> 09:28:50.599
becomes slower but peaceful, to the point where if you

2895
09:28:51.800 --> 09:29:11.000
choose to fall asleep, easy do that easy drift the

2896
09:29:11.160 --> 09:29:23.000
way because there's nothing gonn in your mind, your pray,

2897
09:29:23.519 --> 09:29:35.599
it is paceful, your body continuous.

2898
09:29:38.599 --> 09:29:39.239
To rise.

2899
09:30:03.040 --> 09:30:03.599
And with that.

2900
09:30:03.879 --> 09:30:11.319
Connection between your body relaxing, the word do you say

2901
09:30:11.639 --> 09:30:25.400
to yourself relax means that you don't need to focus

2902
09:30:25.559 --> 09:30:32.599
on just one part. You can just focus on your

2903
09:30:32.919 --> 09:30:59.680
entire body saying the powerful word relax, And there's the

2904
09:31:00.239 --> 09:31:18.239
is familiar sensations of comfort spreading throughout your body, who

2905
09:31:18.519 --> 09:31:29.519

2906
09:31:32.480 --> 09:31:55.400
heathing more relaxed, so that all we need to do

2907
09:31:55.919 --> 09:32:20.040
