Hello, and welcome to Jasonnewland dot com. And this is

2
00:00:11.880 --> 00:00:21.960
Q and A Friday. Bla la la la la lulu. Yeah, Hi, Hi,

3
00:00:22.879 --> 00:00:27.480
So my name is Adjason new Land. Please only listen

4
00:00:27.519 --> 00:00:29.920
when you can safely close your eyes.

5
00:00:36.920 --> 00:00:37.039
Right.

6
00:00:37.079 --> 00:00:44.200
It's one fifty five pm in the afternoon on Friday,

7
00:00:44.359 --> 00:00:51.920
the twenty third of Moy two thousand and five, No,

8
00:00:52.280 --> 00:00:59.159
two thousand and fifth, twenty twenty five. Wow, So nineteen

9
00:00:59.280 --> 00:01:11.079
ninety five, oh five, fifty thirty years ago, and now

10
00:01:11.120 --> 00:01:13.719
I'm just thinking it's weird. I've got these memories of

11
00:01:13.719 --> 00:01:15.920
stuff that happened thirty years ago, and I'm just like,

12
00:01:18.359 --> 00:01:24.319
how can it really be thirty years ago? Right? So

13
00:01:24.480 --> 00:01:28.680
it's Q and A Friday. It's all right. Outside, it's

14
00:01:28.519 --> 00:01:32.239
it's a bit. It's kind of glum and bright, a

15
00:01:32.239 --> 00:01:36.519
little bit of both today out there. It's not cold,

16
00:01:38.120 --> 00:01:46.400
it's yeah, there was a lot of activity. It disbuilded

17
00:01:46.480 --> 00:01:51.319
last night, a lot of door slamming, like you know,

18
00:01:51.680 --> 00:01:55.000
till early hours. I'm not quite sure what that was about,

19
00:01:56.920 --> 00:02:01.200
but I'm up here, so I didn't. I wasn't getting involved.

20
00:02:01.640 --> 00:02:03.079
I think it just might have just been a lot

21
00:02:03.079 --> 00:02:09.400
of a lot of traffic. Perhaps maybe maybe you look

22
00:02:09.439 --> 00:02:15.479
a bit of traffic. Oh that's nice sort of plane

23
00:02:15.520 --> 00:02:21.520
to come over while I'm doing this. How pleasant. So

24
00:02:21.960 --> 00:02:24.599
I've got a message on my Facebook group or my

25
00:02:24.639 --> 00:02:32.520
Facebook group Jason Newlands Boring Group. You can find a

26
00:02:32.599 --> 00:02:37.960

30
00:02:51.919 --> 00:02:54.240
I wonder what it is on the Facebook page, on

31
00:02:54.400 --> 00:03:05.080
the the on the phone. Yeah, they're both together as well,

32
00:03:05.199 --> 00:03:10.080
but side by side, and I'll take you straight to

33
00:03:10.120 --> 00:03:15.680
the page and you can join. You can join. So

34
00:03:15.800 --> 00:03:22.400
I had a message from Claire Clara Claire. I'm not

35
00:03:22.400 --> 00:03:27.199
sure if I'm pronouncing that right. Clairakloa, who heard my

36
00:03:27.280 --> 00:03:30.840
name on your podcast. Thank you for the welcome. You're welcome.

37
00:03:31.000 --> 00:03:38.080
Thank you for welcoming the welcome. I did do a

38
00:03:38.159 --> 00:03:43.960
recording yesterday. It was number one thousand, three hundred and

39
00:03:44.000 --> 00:03:50.719
fifty seven. That's weird. Got a fly A fly. I

40
00:03:50.719 --> 00:03:52.240
don't know if it's the same fly. It must be

41
00:03:52.280 --> 00:03:57.439
a different fly. It's weird because I just had Vinnie

42
00:03:57.479 --> 00:04:00.759
on my not on my lap, but to the left

43
00:04:00.800 --> 00:04:03.759
of me, as I was sitting down with.

44
00:04:03.879 --> 00:04:04.719
My feet up.

45
00:04:06.240 --> 00:04:16.480
And I was watching a boxing YouTube channel, and then

46
00:04:16.519 --> 00:04:19.600
he was asleep, and suddenly he just reached up and

47
00:04:19.879 --> 00:04:28.439
snapped out a fly. It's like one of those movies

48
00:04:29.439 --> 00:04:35.279
with those plants that move really quick, except shape as

49
00:04:35.319 --> 00:04:44.800
a jack russell. He's been a bit weird today, no

50
00:04:44.920 --> 00:04:46.120
more weird than any other time.

51
00:04:47.319 --> 00:04:48.439
A bit stroge.

52
00:04:50.040 --> 00:05:00.439
So what I'm going to do? H I've got six? Nope,

53
00:05:00.560 --> 00:05:08.199
I haven't got There's a bird outside that goes.

54
00:05:13.600 --> 00:05:13.959
Like that.

55
00:05:14.680 --> 00:05:18.879
I hope that wasn't too loud, so I thought it

56
00:05:18.920 --> 00:05:21.759
was one of the neighbors. So he used to have

57
00:05:21.800 --> 00:05:23.519
a neighbor that lived over the fence.

58
00:05:24.800 --> 00:05:25.519
That he used to.

59
00:05:25.639 --> 00:05:31.879
Squawk like a pigeon. But early in the morning. I'm

60
00:05:31.920 --> 00:05:34.480
talking like six in the morning, five six in the morning,

61
00:05:34.519 --> 00:05:36.920
four in the morning, it'd be like doing that noise.

62
00:05:40.680 --> 00:05:45.839
He was a bit of a a character, this one.

63
00:05:46.160 --> 00:05:50.600
He doesn't live around here anymore, but I remember once

64
00:05:50.720 --> 00:05:56.800
he was my neighbor who lived the other side of

65
00:05:56.839 --> 00:05:59.519
the built of the block where he lived. I knew him,

66
00:05:59.560 --> 00:06:03.360
and he was like he was a friend, and he

67
00:06:03.399 --> 00:06:05.680
said he got woken up at about five in the

68
00:06:05.720 --> 00:06:11.199
morning someone was outside his bedroom window, bearing in mind

69
00:06:11.279 --> 00:06:17.759
he lived upstairs, okay, these were like studio apartments, and

70
00:06:17.839 --> 00:06:20.720
he looked outside and it was the neighbor from downstairs

71
00:06:20.720 --> 00:06:29.879
on a ladder, painting his window frame pink. No apparent reason,

72
00:06:30.519 --> 00:06:38.639
just decided it would be a good idea. That didn't end. Well,

73
00:06:39.240 --> 00:06:43.319
it's just that I don't think it was the choice

74
00:06:43.360 --> 00:06:49.560
of color. But you can't. First of all, these frames

75
00:06:49.560 --> 00:06:52.800
are not wooden, they're like double blazing frames, so it

76
00:06:52.879 --> 00:06:56.519
can't really be painting them, I don't think, and I'm

77
00:06:56.519 --> 00:07:01.720
not sure the counsel like that. Another thing he did

78
00:07:01.920 --> 00:07:05.439
is he would spend like he's got tight. He had

79
00:07:05.439 --> 00:07:09.319
a tight little bit of grass in front or out

80
00:07:09.319 --> 00:07:12.199
the back, like a tiny little bit of grass that

81
00:07:12.279 --> 00:07:20.199
was kind of his little area. And I'm talking very small,

82
00:07:20.560 --> 00:07:23.680
very small little. Do you think of the smallest garden,

83
00:07:24.839 --> 00:07:27.720
the half of it half that you know, it's really

84
00:07:27.759 --> 00:07:33.519
tiny little. He would spend all day long mowing it.

85
00:07:35.800 --> 00:07:40.120
I mean you could literally probably cut it with scissors

86
00:07:40.519 --> 00:07:47.600
now scissors. In about half that time he was I

87
00:07:47.600 --> 00:07:52.399
don't know, it was just on pills, and he'd be

88
00:07:52.480 --> 00:07:59.040
doing it all day. Had another one lived over there.

89
00:08:00.199 --> 00:08:02.079
These are people who live over the fence. It's a

90
00:08:02.079 --> 00:08:05.279
different world over there. This bloke, he doesn't live there

91
00:08:05.279 --> 00:08:10.160
anymore either. He used to have palettes delivered, wooden palettes,

92
00:08:11.399 --> 00:08:14.519
like from a lorry. It'd have a big pile delivered,

93
00:08:16.800 --> 00:08:19.000
and it did this in the summer. I think. Yeah,

94
00:08:19.079 --> 00:08:22.560
so basically spend so this big, massive pile of palettes,

95
00:08:24.639 --> 00:08:28.160
wooden palettes. It's spend all day breaking them up with

96
00:08:28.240 --> 00:08:32.360
an axe, which was very noisy ausse. I'm sure you

97
00:08:32.399 --> 00:08:36.559
can imagine all day long, and then the evening they

98
00:08:36.679 --> 00:08:42.279
have a bonfire. And that was his routine for the

99
00:08:42.320 --> 00:08:48.720
whole of the summer. So's noise all day, smoke all night.

100
00:08:50.720 --> 00:08:55.919
And bonfires, however lovely they may be, you know, are

101
00:08:56.000 --> 00:09:01.519
like a nice bonfire, but it's not great. I think

102
00:09:01.559 --> 00:09:06.279
bonfires are better in the winter because in the summer,

103
00:09:08.080 --> 00:09:09.960
I don't know about you, but I kind of liked

104
00:09:09.960 --> 00:09:13.360
to have my windows open. Probably need to have my

105
00:09:13.399 --> 00:09:15.720
windows open, like in the winter, in the in the evening,

106
00:09:15.720 --> 00:09:19.720
in the evening in the summer, and that's not ideal

107
00:09:19.759 --> 00:09:26.200
to have smoke coming in. But and it's a different

108
00:09:26.279 --> 00:09:31.679
kind of smoke, isn't it bonfire smoke? I remember I

109
00:09:31.720 --> 00:09:34.720
was at a bonfire, and it's a place that I lived.

110
00:09:35.399 --> 00:09:38.960
This is the Buddhist community, and it was this fire,

111
00:09:39.080 --> 00:09:41.519
and there was a big like meeting together and giving

112
00:09:41.559 --> 00:09:46.320
one I suppose, like a party kind of thing, as

113
00:09:46.399 --> 00:09:51.960
much of a party as Buddhists can do. And I

114
00:09:52.000 --> 00:09:57.080
didn't even notice it until the next day. Every item

115
00:09:57.120 --> 00:10:03.360
of clothing that I'd worn that evening stunk like really bad.

116
00:10:04.759 --> 00:10:07.440
But I didn't notice the smaller smoke when I was

117
00:10:07.480 --> 00:10:09.879
out there because I wasn't even you know, I was

118
00:10:09.960 --> 00:10:17.080
avoiding the smoke. I was just near the fire, but

119
00:10:19.679 --> 00:10:22.480
you know, I wouldn't like stand there or sit there

120
00:10:22.919 --> 00:10:34.759
and then smoke pumping into me. Yeah, but quite smelly.

121
00:10:35.440 --> 00:10:35.600
Yeah.

122
00:10:35.639 --> 00:10:38.240
I had some strange had a fantasist living over there

123
00:10:38.279 --> 00:10:42.360
as well, a different bloke. Gossip said all gossip, isn't

124
00:10:42.399 --> 00:10:52.879
it here? He was unusual character, he's I mean, he

125
00:10:52.960 --> 00:10:56.200
was in all the national papers. He was quite famous.

126
00:10:56.879 --> 00:11:00.279
I couldn't believe it, but I got one right of

127
00:11:00.279 --> 00:11:06.080
them actually, but it was just one day. I'll do it.

128
00:11:06.399 --> 00:11:08.879
I could write a book. My name used to say

129
00:11:08.960 --> 00:11:11.840
that I could write a Guinness Book of Records of

130
00:11:12.000 --> 00:11:16.080
everything I've done, been through, and I'm thinking about ourself

131
00:11:16.159 --> 00:11:22.440
that I could write a book just about the neighbors.

132
00:11:22.480 --> 00:11:24.120
I'd have to be very careful of see not to

133
00:11:24.200 --> 00:11:28.039
name any of them. But I don't think you'd even

134
00:11:28.120 --> 00:11:34.080
believe even ten percent of what I've seen and heard

135
00:11:34.159 --> 00:11:38.240
and experienced since I've lived here, and not just here,

136
00:11:38.279 --> 00:11:40.440
but all the other places I've lived, all the different

137
00:11:40.440 --> 00:11:47.240
houses I've shared. Wow, Seriously, you'd think I was making

138
00:11:47.279 --> 00:11:51.519
it up, and I probably would be. That's the problem.

139
00:11:51.759 --> 00:11:54.480
So I've got Mike. These are the people that have

140
00:11:54.559 --> 00:11:58.279
left me questions for today. So the very beginning, I'm

141
00:11:58.279 --> 00:12:00.720
going to mention everyone's name, so you know that I

142
00:12:00.799 --> 00:12:04.759
have answered your question, maybe not very well, but I've

143
00:12:05.080 --> 00:12:10.399
at least attempted. So first of all was Mike. Then

144
00:12:10.440 --> 00:12:25.679
it's Ben, Cindy Hope, but I will mention Hope that

145
00:12:25.759 --> 00:12:27.600
she didn't actually ask the question, but it's part of

146
00:12:27.639 --> 00:12:34.480
the Cindy's question. And then Alie Oh Hope, yep, Pope's

147
00:12:34.519 --> 00:12:38.759
got a difference. She's got a question as well. And Sandy,

148
00:12:40.279 --> 00:12:55.039
So Sandy Hope, Ali, Cindy, Ben, and Mike. Yeah, So

149
00:12:55.080 --> 00:13:03.399
it's one, two, three, four, five, six questions, And I

150
00:13:03.440 --> 00:13:05.840
hope that those are who asked the questions, those you

151
00:13:05.879 --> 00:13:07.919
have asked the questions, and when you hear the answers,

152
00:13:08.840 --> 00:13:12.360
I hope it's it's everything you hoped it would be.

153
00:13:12.559 --> 00:13:12.960
I'm just.

154
00:13:14.679 --> 00:13:16.320
I don't know what I'm going to say, because you

155
00:13:16.360 --> 00:13:19.919
know I don't always tell the truth. So I'll try

156
00:13:20.080 --> 00:13:27.960
a little bit, okay. So Sebastian has mentioned b in

157
00:13:28.039 --> 00:13:33.200
another cover which he likes to do. I want to

158
00:13:33.240 --> 00:13:38.600
meet you at the beach tonight. What, as Sebastian wrote Jason.

159
00:13:38.720 --> 00:13:42.799
Maybe he even wants to go to a hotel room

160
00:13:43.320 --> 00:13:49.639
every hour. Sebastian sends me another message he loves going

161
00:13:49.639 --> 00:13:52.240
on his AI things and if he sees a picture

162
00:13:52.320 --> 00:13:57.679
that is he just if you can see a way

163
00:13:57.720 --> 00:14:06.679
to make fun of me, he does. Right here we go.

164
00:14:07.720 --> 00:14:12.960
Mike has asked, as I was falling asleep last night

165
00:14:13.039 --> 00:14:21.200
to the Schools episode Schools, I was at the boring,

166
00:14:21.480 --> 00:14:25.399
the boring, Monday's boring thing. I think I was wondering

167
00:14:25.480 --> 00:14:30.000
how much you plan out what you're going to say?

168
00:14:30.039 --> 00:14:33.519
Do you develop an outline or do you just jump

169
00:14:33.559 --> 00:14:36.840
in and wing it? Does your mind ever go blank

170
00:14:36.960 --> 00:14:42.840
and you find yourself at a loss for words. Right, Well,

171
00:14:42.840 --> 00:14:45.080
with the I'll talk just about the let Me Boy

172
00:14:45.159 --> 00:14:53.720
the Sleep recordings because with the occasionally I will work

173
00:14:53.759 --> 00:14:56.600
out what I'm roughly going to say. With the if

174
00:14:56.600 --> 00:15:01.879
I do a hypnosis recording, although nine see nine percent

175
00:15:02.120 --> 00:15:07.159
of all my hypnosis recordings that are being just me

176
00:15:07.600 --> 00:15:10.720
talking off the top of my head, and the only

177
00:15:10.759 --> 00:15:15.320
preparation would be maybe having a concept. So if it

178
00:15:15.440 --> 00:15:19.879
was a relaxation technique, for example, and Le'd say it

179
00:15:19.960 --> 00:15:23.639
involved a biscuits in, I don't know why it would

180
00:15:23.679 --> 00:15:26.159
involve a biscuit tin. So I'm saying I want to

181
00:15:26.159 --> 00:15:31.759
have a biscuit tin, and I'm gonna crumble up all

182
00:15:31.799 --> 00:15:37.399
the biscuits and just shake the biscuits and then make

183
00:15:37.480 --> 00:15:39.919
some holes in the biscuits in at the bottom and

184
00:15:40.279 --> 00:15:46.279
just shake them and watch those biscuit drops just filtered down,

185
00:15:46.440 --> 00:15:49.039
and as as they fall to filtered down and fall

186
00:15:49.039 --> 00:15:52.240
out the bottom of the biscuits in, you know, you

187
00:15:52.360 --> 00:15:57.200
feel more relaxed and calmer. Something like that. It's just

188
00:15:58.240 --> 00:16:06.960
sounds rubbish. It sounds a bit crummy. So with the

189
00:16:07.039 --> 00:16:11.480
let Me Boy to Sleep, the most I do regarding

190
00:16:13.039 --> 00:16:18.639
preparation for most of them would be just to think

191
00:16:18.679 --> 00:16:26.279
about a subject. A lot of the times, when it

192
00:16:26.320 --> 00:16:30.679
comes to let's say Monday's boring objects, I don't know.

193
00:16:31.480 --> 00:16:32.960
Usually I don't know what I'm going to talk about

194
00:16:33.039 --> 00:16:39.840
until I start. I wasn't going to talk about I

195
00:16:39.840 --> 00:16:41.759
don't think I was even going to talk about schools

196
00:16:41.799 --> 00:16:50.639
when I I first started that recording with the Trivia Tuesday, yeah,

197
00:16:50.639 --> 00:16:55.279
I do. That's much more planned as far as you know.

198
00:16:55.480 --> 00:16:58.120
Look up the trivia bits and yes, there's a little

199
00:16:58.159 --> 00:17:01.960
bit more planning than that. And with the Q and

200
00:17:02.000 --> 00:17:05.279
A Fridays, of course, I had the questions in front

201
00:17:05.279 --> 00:17:10.559
of me, so in a sense, you plan what I'm

202
00:17:10.599 --> 00:17:14.359
going to talk about. But outside of that, no, I

203
00:17:14.400 --> 00:17:17.359
don't know. So when I didn't, I had a little

204
00:17:17.400 --> 00:17:22.880
skip through the questions before I started this, but I

205
00:17:22.960 --> 00:17:25.240
got no idea what I'm going to say until I

206
00:17:25.279 --> 00:17:32.880
say it. With the School's episode, for example, I ended

207
00:17:32.960 --> 00:17:34.799
up talking about school, so I just went with it.

208
00:17:37.519 --> 00:17:41.279
I don't have any kind of outline or structure for

209
00:17:41.359 --> 00:17:45.880
what I'm going to talk about pretty much ever, other

210
00:17:45.960 --> 00:17:52.839
than when it's a if it's a trivia one, the

211
00:17:52.920 --> 00:17:57.839
structure is just reading out the trivia the trivia's while

212
00:17:57.880 --> 00:18:00.759
thinking about something to talk about, and then focused on

213
00:18:00.799 --> 00:18:06.319
that subject and finding the trivia bits of information and

214
00:18:06.359 --> 00:18:12.599
maybe commenting on it. So it's organized, but not really

215
00:18:13.960 --> 00:18:14.799
Q and A Friday.

216
00:18:14.799 --> 00:18:15.319
It's just.

217
00:18:16.839 --> 00:18:25.279
I just answer, just honestly ish if I can. But

218
00:18:25.400 --> 00:18:27.880
generally no, I don't. I don't have any idea what

219
00:18:27.920 --> 00:18:31.480
I'm going to talk about. I mean sometimes I don't.

220
00:18:31.480 --> 00:18:37.039
It's not that I my mind never really goes blank.

221
00:18:37.599 --> 00:18:37.839
It did.

222
00:18:37.880 --> 00:18:41.079
That is actually it's not totally true. I mean, I

223
00:18:41.119 --> 00:18:43.720
know I am my hero to a lot of you

224
00:18:43.759 --> 00:18:52.839
out there altogether, there's a hero if you look inside

225
00:18:52.920 --> 00:18:59.640
your pants, right, And I like, I quite like the

226
00:18:59.680 --> 00:19:07.440
idea that it is. I thought the way that the

227
00:19:07.519 --> 00:19:11.119
recording has come out that it would seem like they

228
00:19:11.160 --> 00:19:15.279
were just pretty much adlict, because they are. It's just

229
00:19:15.359 --> 00:19:21.160
me just talking. I didn't I didn't think they seemed

230
00:19:21.240 --> 00:19:25.400
very structured. I mean, a Q and A Friday is

231
00:19:25.480 --> 00:19:28.680
kind of structured in a sense of I'm just answering questions.

232
00:19:28.920 --> 00:19:33.039
So there is a degree of structure. And if I

233
00:19:33.200 --> 00:19:39.759
focus on let's say a boring object, the only structure Okay,

234
00:19:40.039 --> 00:19:44.119
there is a structure with that in the sense of

235
00:19:46.079 --> 00:19:48.480
I choose a subject. So let's say, if I choose

236
00:19:49.240 --> 00:19:54.519
mobile phones for an example, as a subject, I will

237
00:19:56.039 --> 00:19:58.640
have that little reminder in my head to bring the

238
00:19:58.720 --> 00:20:03.559
subject back mobile phones. So when I'm starting to talk

239
00:20:03.640 --> 00:20:12.039
about dolphins and you know, tree houses and stuff like that,

240
00:20:12.440 --> 00:20:14.240
then I realize, what We've got to bring it back

241
00:20:14.279 --> 00:20:18.079
to mobile phones. So I managed to bring it back.

242
00:20:19.920 --> 00:20:25.480
I don't generally have that little voice in my head

243
00:20:25.759 --> 00:20:29.759
when I do just a general recording. And also even

244
00:20:29.799 --> 00:20:34.400
when I do the let's say a sleep normal sleep recording,

245
00:20:35.960 --> 00:20:38.440
if you want to call it hypnosis, a body scam, whatever.

246
00:20:39.880 --> 00:20:42.000
Even if I have an idea of something that I'm

247
00:20:42.039 --> 00:20:49.480
going to discuss, so maybe I decided I'm just going

248
00:20:49.559 --> 00:20:51.720
to focus on each part of the body and imagine

249
00:20:51.799 --> 00:20:55.400
the wind is just blowing through that part of the body.

250
00:20:57.319 --> 00:21:01.519
And then when I get to start the recording, I

251
00:21:01.640 --> 00:21:07.519
might change my mind and decide to say the word

252
00:21:08.519 --> 00:21:17.039
relax five times or something like that with each time,

253
00:21:17.119 --> 00:21:18.640
you know, whereas you focus on each part of the

254
00:21:18.640 --> 00:21:25.839
body or you know, So it's not I kind of

255
00:21:25.880 --> 00:21:28.359
wish I was more structured, but I think if I

256
00:21:28.440 --> 00:21:33.359
was more structured, i'd be I probably I've got more

257
00:21:33.440 --> 00:21:37.839
chance of being successful possibly if I was structured, But

258
00:21:37.880 --> 00:21:40.440
at the same time, I wouldn't be able to produce

259
00:21:40.480 --> 00:21:45.440
as many recordings as I do because struct for me,

260
00:21:46.000 --> 00:21:54.720
structure reduces I'm not going to say reduces creativity, but

261
00:21:54.960 --> 00:21:58.160
quite for me it does a little bit. I like

262
00:21:58.240 --> 00:22:00.839
the idea of being able to not know what I'm

263
00:22:00.880 --> 00:22:07.559
going to say because it amuses me then and I'm

264
00:22:07.640 --> 00:22:09.519
kind of interested in what I'm going to say next

265
00:22:09.519 --> 00:22:12.599
because I never know what I'm going to, what subject

266
00:22:12.640 --> 00:22:16.000
I'm going to end up talking about, or what direction

267
00:22:16.119 --> 00:22:23.880
I'm going to traveling. I really don't know. Now. Occasionally

268
00:22:24.880 --> 00:22:27.759
it's not so much that I find myself a loss

269
00:22:27.759 --> 00:22:32.000
for words, but occasionally, and this is true, I'm telling you,

270
00:22:32.039 --> 00:22:34.920
this is Mike. I'm telling you this, Mike is very true.

271
00:22:35.640 --> 00:22:39.079
And I did one recently. I do. I do recording

272
00:22:39.319 --> 00:22:43.640
and I'm just in a rotten mood. But I didn't

273
00:22:43.680 --> 00:22:49.119
realize until I started the recording, and I have to

274
00:22:49.160 --> 00:22:54.319
stop occasionally. I've done the whole recording and just trashed it.

275
00:22:56.599 --> 00:23:00.000
The other day I started I think I was try

276
00:23:00.200 --> 00:23:08.119
to do a trivia Tuesday, and I I like nah,

277
00:23:09.519 --> 00:23:12.640
I tried I think four different attempts to try to

278
00:23:12.680 --> 00:23:20.640
do it, and it wasn't the right day. So yeah,

279
00:23:20.799 --> 00:23:24.920
I just I abandoned it. Which is kind of weird

280
00:23:24.960 --> 00:23:29.119
because sometimes I might not feel in the mood to

281
00:23:29.160 --> 00:23:32.759
do recorded, but once I start the recording, I cheer up,

282
00:23:33.640 --> 00:23:36.200
and when I've completed the recording, I feel good like

283
00:23:36.240 --> 00:23:43.200
I've actually accomplished something, like I've contributed something to the

284
00:23:43.240 --> 00:23:49.960
world in my little way. But sometimes it's just a

285
00:23:50.039 --> 00:23:57.400
no go. As far as a loss for words, I think,

286
00:23:57.480 --> 00:24:02.079
if I'm in if I'm talking to human, yeah I'm

287
00:24:02.079 --> 00:24:06.160
not Mike, I'm not saying you're not human, don't ever

288
00:24:06.200 --> 00:24:08.880
go at me. What I think. If I was face

289
00:24:08.920 --> 00:24:12.319
to face with one person I had this, this would

290
00:24:12.319 --> 00:24:17.119
be I mean, I think the reason why it is

291
00:24:17.160 --> 00:24:24.920
easier because there's no interruption. There's nothing interrupting my stream

292
00:24:25.000 --> 00:24:35.279
of thoughts. If if this is a conversation, then I

293
00:24:35.279 --> 00:24:39.440
would have to stop talking and it'd just be a

294
00:24:39.480 --> 00:24:43.599
different process because in order to get to some of

295
00:24:43.599 --> 00:24:46.680
the I guess more weird things that come out of

296
00:24:46.680 --> 00:24:51.359
my mouth, it takes a bit of traveling, It takes

297
00:24:51.400 --> 00:24:57.160
a bit of I need to like just let go,

298
00:24:57.599 --> 00:25:03.680
just you know, be free without I was gonna say

299
00:25:03.720 --> 00:25:07.559
without censoring myself, but you know what I do, I

300
00:25:07.599 --> 00:25:10.119
don't sense myself. But in the end, I kind of

301
00:25:10.440 --> 00:25:17.440
do a little bit, but I generally don't. Generally. Occasionally

302
00:25:17.480 --> 00:25:20.519
I said something and I edit it out and I think, no,

303
00:25:21.079 --> 00:25:25.119
it's like no, and you might be thinking, yeah, but

304
00:25:25.160 --> 00:25:27.319
you said something the other day and didn't edit that out.

305
00:25:28.119 --> 00:25:31.480
What kind of stuff do you edit out? What it's like?

306
00:25:31.559 --> 00:25:36.319
What I know, I'll just you got it. Well, you

307
00:25:36.400 --> 00:25:44.640
haven't got to remember, but you could maybe you think that. Yeah,

308
00:25:44.720 --> 00:25:49.000
sometimes I leave stuff in It makes me laugh. I

309
00:25:49.079 --> 00:25:52.039
know it might sound strange, but I've just I just

310
00:25:52.079 --> 00:25:58.119
sometimes find things funny, and even when I listen back

311
00:25:58.160 --> 00:26:02.759
to it, it just makes me giggle because it's just so ridiculous.

312
00:26:02.799 --> 00:26:08.440
I like absurd, I do. I like absurd, and but

313
00:26:08.559 --> 00:26:13.039
I like I like everything I like so well, anything

314
00:26:13.039 --> 00:26:21.519
that makes me laugh I like. And I lost for words. No,

315
00:26:21.720 --> 00:26:25.279
there's a freedom. This is freedom for me. This is

316
00:26:25.319 --> 00:26:28.599
the only time I feel free is when I can

317
00:26:28.720 --> 00:26:31.799
just talk and I can just be me. And I

318
00:26:31.839 --> 00:26:36.720
think I've found my voice over the last eight years,

319
00:26:37.400 --> 00:26:40.599
which might sound weird because it's a long period of time.

320
00:26:41.480 --> 00:26:44.440
Is it seven How many years? Is it seven years?

321
00:26:44.440 --> 00:26:48.039
Not eight years? Is it seven years? Seven years? Sorry,

322
00:26:48.599 --> 00:26:51.960
since I've been doing since twenty eighteen, since I've been

323
00:26:51.960 --> 00:26:58.480
doing these, let me boy to sleep or lumbits, lumbits,

324
00:26:59.000 --> 00:27:06.480
lumbits bites. Yeah, since something doing these, I think I've

325
00:27:06.480 --> 00:27:12.960
discovered my voice. At the same time, I realized, I'm

326
00:27:12.759 --> 00:27:17.640
I'm not a bad person, really, just you know, stuff

327
00:27:17.680 --> 00:27:23.599
I come out with. I'm not out to cause anyone problems.

328
00:27:25.960 --> 00:27:30.279
I don't really have any I don't really have much

329
00:27:30.319 --> 00:27:35.000
in a way of extreme views. I never really wanted

330
00:27:35.000 --> 00:27:36.200
to have extreme views.

331
00:27:36.759 --> 00:27:37.240
You know, I.

332
00:27:39.599 --> 00:27:45.480
Grew up in a society in the seventies. You know,

333
00:27:45.519 --> 00:27:48.200
I was born in nineteen seventies, So I went through

334
00:27:48.200 --> 00:27:53.000
the seventies where there was a lot of extreme views

335
00:27:53.359 --> 00:28:00.519
around to do with well every single aspect of life really,

336
00:28:04.799 --> 00:28:06.640
and as I got older, you know, once I kind

337
00:28:06.640 --> 00:28:09.119
of reached I mean, it still went on through the

338
00:28:09.119 --> 00:28:12.799
eighties as well, but as I started to get older,

339
00:28:14.839 --> 00:28:20.640
I realized that these views that I had weren't my views,

340
00:28:22.519 --> 00:28:25.079
and I started to do something about it. Started to

341
00:28:25.319 --> 00:28:29.279
educate myself a bit, and by educate myself. I mean,

342
00:28:29.519 --> 00:28:44.240
just just read and listen, read other people's opinions. I

343
00:28:44.279 --> 00:28:49.519
think that can be educating. So if you've got one

344
00:28:49.559 --> 00:28:51.400
side of the argument and that's the only side of

345
00:28:51.400 --> 00:28:55.000
the argument you ever hear, it's going to kind of

346
00:28:55.000 --> 00:28:58.680
make sense, especially if you're a kid and you've grown

347
00:28:58.759 --> 00:29:00.920
up with that. But then if you see the other

348
00:29:00.960 --> 00:29:06.200
side of the argument, it can be like, it could

349
00:29:06.200 --> 00:29:09.680
be annoying, it can be difficult to hear. But then

350
00:29:09.720 --> 00:29:11.759
if you see another part of the argument from a

351
00:29:11.759 --> 00:29:15.960
different perspective, and then again from another perspective, And the

352
00:29:16.000 --> 00:29:22.720
more perspective you get, the I think the more educated

353
00:29:23.319 --> 00:29:30.640
I became realizing that it is opinions and perspective and

354
00:29:30.799 --> 00:29:33.880
experiences people. You know, we've all got different experiences, and

355
00:29:35.319 --> 00:29:41.559
it's yeah, I'm not not really into the extremest things,

356
00:29:46.480 --> 00:29:51.400
and it is I can't neighbor. It's proper, proper right

357
00:29:51.440 --> 00:29:56.880
wing always shouting on about it. And they it's like

358
00:29:57.880 --> 00:30:02.599
it's almost like they've they read the sun and that's

359
00:30:02.599 --> 00:30:06.319
where they get their their opinions from. That's where they

360
00:30:06.359 --> 00:30:14.039
get their information from, and everything's kind of based around

361
00:30:14.880 --> 00:30:16.759
It's like no new knowledge is going to go in

362
00:30:16.839 --> 00:30:22.559
because they've got that fixed, that fixed mentality, that that

363
00:30:22.680 --> 00:30:29.079
model that's there. I realized this has got nothing to

364
00:30:29.119 --> 00:30:33.079
do with the question, is it, But yeah, for me,

365
00:30:41.640 --> 00:30:46.000
yeah I do. I'm trying to explain that sometimes I

366
00:30:46.039 --> 00:30:51.960
do have a loss for words, but not really genery,

367
00:30:52.119 --> 00:30:57.240
not in this not for this podcast. I'm hm hmm.

368
00:30:57.640 --> 00:30:59.920
I mean there are better days. Some days. I guess

369
00:31:00.079 --> 00:31:04.920
I'm probably a bit more upbeat than others. I try

370
00:31:04.960 --> 00:31:08.720
not to be. I try not to. I try to

371
00:31:08.799 --> 00:31:11.880
keep it light if I can, but it's not always,

372
00:31:11.880 --> 00:31:19.400
not always easy, you know. But at the same time,

373
00:31:19.519 --> 00:31:23.240
this isn't therapy for me. I'm not talking to help

374
00:31:23.279 --> 00:31:26.640
myself therapeutically, or though it might be helping me, maybe

375
00:31:26.640 --> 00:31:31.880
you'd be helping other people in some ways to hear

376
00:31:31.960 --> 00:31:36.400
someone talking. And you know, if I don't really mention

377
00:31:36.920 --> 00:31:42.519
my mental health, travels, journeys, whatever you want to call it,

378
00:31:43.200 --> 00:31:49.079
over the last fifty years, you know, fifty odd years,

379
00:31:49.079 --> 00:31:52.759
I don't really go into it too much detail, but

380
00:31:54.160 --> 00:31:57.519
I think maybe for some people would look at this,

381
00:31:58.720 --> 00:32:00.880
look at where I am now, and I'm doing all

382
00:32:00.960 --> 00:32:08.880
right all things considered. You know, I'm still here. According

383
00:32:08.920 --> 00:32:11.319
to some of the messages I get. I'm helping people

384
00:32:15.039 --> 00:32:23.240
and I'm doing something positive with my time. And I

385
00:32:23.240 --> 00:32:26.480
mean my psychologist said this to me because I remember

386
00:32:26.519 --> 00:32:31.319
saying this is years ago. She said, can you put

387
00:32:31.359 --> 00:32:32.079
your trouser back on?

388
00:32:32.119 --> 00:32:32.400
Please?

389
00:32:32.839 --> 00:32:35.440
Like she said, didn't he What do you want? You

390
00:32:35.480 --> 00:32:38.559
want a treat? O gotta go, And I'm not gonna go.

391
00:32:38.640 --> 00:32:39.880
You can hear me. I'm just gonna go and get

392
00:32:39.920 --> 00:32:44.839
the treat out of the packet, all right? All right,

393
00:32:49.680 --> 00:32:53.920
here we go. How did that get on the law?

394
00:32:55.720 --> 00:32:58.319
Will you stop checking my stuff on the floor?

395
00:33:01.039 --> 00:33:01.279
Wow?

396
00:33:04.440 --> 00:33:04.839
I wait?

397
00:33:05.759 --> 00:33:11.119
So I've got this good boy chewy chicken twists with

398
00:33:11.200 --> 00:33:19.319
one hundred natural chicken breast meat, promotes dental hygiene and

399
00:33:19.640 --> 00:33:23.200
a complimentary pet food. Did you hear what you said?

400
00:33:23.240 --> 00:33:25.759
He said, I don't care what it says on the packet,

401
00:33:25.839 --> 00:33:33.880
just give me it. All right. Well, I'm trying to

402
00:33:33.880 --> 00:33:39.440
open it. He's sitting on both his He's basically sitting

403
00:33:39.440 --> 00:33:43.039
on his bum with his hands in the air, like

404
00:33:43.240 --> 00:33:46.400
just there you go. I'm not sure if he learned

405
00:33:46.400 --> 00:33:49.119
to do that, or if he was taught it, or

406
00:33:49.200 --> 00:33:51.680
I don't know if he just did it because he's

407
00:33:51.680 --> 00:33:53.799
always done it since I've had him, but he was

408
00:33:53.839 --> 00:33:59.119
ten months old and I got him right. So that's that.

409
00:33:59.519 --> 00:34:04.839
Uh yeah, I' a psychologist. And this is probably eight

410
00:34:05.000 --> 00:34:09.920
nine years ago, she said to me, because I said, well,

411
00:34:11.679 --> 00:34:21.440
I don't feel that I'm really helping society. I'm not

412
00:34:21.519 --> 00:34:24.920
help I'm not contributing. That's it. I'm not contributing to

413
00:34:25.039 --> 00:34:30.360
society being at home and not going to work or whatever.

414
00:34:31.039 --> 00:34:34.159
And she said, yeah, but society is not just your

415
00:34:34.199 --> 00:34:38.760
local area. Society is not just your country. Society is

416
00:34:38.840 --> 00:34:46.000
the world, isn't it. Society is everywhere. And I said,

417
00:34:46.000 --> 00:34:47.440
what are you talking about? She said, I don't know.

418
00:34:47.480 --> 00:34:50.239
I'm just trying to make you feel better. I said,

419
00:34:50.239 --> 00:34:53.599
it's because it's Friday afternoon. You're just waiting to go home.

420
00:34:54.159 --> 00:34:58.719
She said, yeah, I just we should stop talking. I said, well,

421
00:34:58.760 --> 00:35:00.079
we can have a cup tea if you want. You

422
00:35:00.119 --> 00:35:03.559
said no, I don't trust your tea, so I'm not

423
00:35:03.599 --> 00:35:06.000
going to put anything in it. She said, that's a problem.

424
00:35:06.199 --> 00:35:09.480
An empty cup is no good, does not quention my

425
00:35:09.519 --> 00:35:13.920
first I said it was a silly conversation, but I

426
00:35:13.960 --> 00:35:18.920
just said, ah, I didn't think about it really like that.

427
00:35:19.679 --> 00:35:23.360
She said, well, you got people listening. I mean, if

428
00:35:23.400 --> 00:35:25.840
you forget the world, you've got people listening in this

429
00:35:25.920 --> 00:35:30.880
country just because no one's listening locally. I said, yeah,

430
00:35:31.320 --> 00:35:35.519
got a few. I suppose a few thousand around the

431
00:35:35.559 --> 00:35:37.880
country that listen. She said, there you go.

432
00:35:39.440 --> 00:35:40.000
So for.

433
00:35:41.480 --> 00:35:46.079
So, I guess in a way I am. From then on,

434
00:35:46.440 --> 00:35:49.920
I kind of thought, maybe I saw a little bit differently.

435
00:35:49.960 --> 00:35:53.719
I am contributing to society in my own little way,

436
00:35:54.239 --> 00:36:03.079
in my own weird way. So yeah, and maybe if

437
00:36:03.079 --> 00:36:06.400
someone's listening, if they're like, you're very young maybe or

438
00:36:06.400 --> 00:36:08.719
I don't have to be young, but they might be listening.

439
00:36:08.760 --> 00:36:12.840
They might have a biopile or a personality disorder, some

440
00:36:12.920 --> 00:36:17.039
kind of mental health issue, and wondering like what's going

441
00:36:17.079 --> 00:36:18.440
to become of them and how they're going to get,

442
00:36:18.480 --> 00:36:23.159
how they're gonna you know, what's it like to Is

443
00:36:23.199 --> 00:36:25.119
it even possible to be like that and be in

444
00:36:25.159 --> 00:36:30.920
your thirties and forties and fifties, And yeah, it is possible.

445
00:36:32.159 --> 00:36:34.559
I'm proof of that. I was going to say living proof,

446
00:36:34.559 --> 00:36:36.519
but I don't know if I have to say a

447
00:36:36.519 --> 00:36:42.360
word of living considering I'm talking. I just heard this

448
00:36:43.519 --> 00:36:46.800
weird sound outside in the garden, and I didn't know

449
00:36:46.840 --> 00:36:49.119
what it was, so I just had a little look,

450
00:36:49.840 --> 00:36:57.760
and it's a man. Looks like he's washing the windows,

451
00:37:00.400 --> 00:37:07.480
which I'm kind of a little bit confused because but

452
00:37:07.559 --> 00:37:11.239
these are downstairs windows. Now, I know we have people

453
00:37:11.559 --> 00:37:15.079
wash the communal windows, but I've never had anyone washing

454
00:37:15.199 --> 00:37:18.239
my actual windows from outside, not in ten years i've

455
00:37:18.280 --> 00:37:22.280
lived there. So I've closed on windows just in case

456
00:37:22.320 --> 00:37:29.960
he's gonna wash them. Literally, I've got us. It's nominally

457
00:37:30.119 --> 00:37:33.960
joking it. I've got cobwebs that have been outside my window.

458
00:37:34.000 --> 00:37:36.599
I can't reach them to wash them, been out there

459
00:37:36.639 --> 00:37:39.800
for it's so long. If you get a magnifying glass,

460
00:37:39.840 --> 00:37:43.320
you can actually see one in a like a little

461
00:37:43.360 --> 00:37:49.639
rocking chair, smoking a pipe, another one knitting because the

462
00:37:49.679 --> 00:37:54.760
spiders is because they're so old. That would work on

463
00:37:54.760 --> 00:37:57.159
some level. I'm sure she needs a bit of rewriting.

464
00:37:58.320 --> 00:38:05.320
And Ben, when you were young and your dad collected

465
00:38:05.320 --> 00:38:08.880
you all again, did you have any pets? Right? So

466
00:38:08.920 --> 00:38:11.079
this is referring to when I left the children's home

467
00:38:11.159 --> 00:38:16.400
at seven, just before I was seven, the summer before

468
00:38:16.440 --> 00:38:19.599
I was seven? Why do I say summer so loudly?

469
00:38:20.760 --> 00:38:25.760
And in nineteen seventy seven it was. It was literally

470
00:38:26.639 --> 00:38:31.360
I think we moved there and Elvis passed away. That was.

471
00:38:33.519 --> 00:38:35.800
It was that kind of period. I remember that day

472
00:38:35.840 --> 00:38:43.559
because it rained so hard, and I mean, this was

473
00:38:43.639 --> 00:38:48.880
nineteen seventy seven. This is when summers lasted for like

474
00:38:49.000 --> 00:38:54.400
it's for seemingly for weeks. I mean, whether they did

475
00:38:54.480 --> 00:38:59.920
or not, I don't know, but we definitely seventy five,

476
00:39:00.199 --> 00:39:04.000
seventy six, seventy seven we had some pretty long hot

477
00:39:04.039 --> 00:39:11.119
summers in the UK, and I remember walking I don't know,

478
00:39:11.239 --> 00:39:14.519
I think we were walking back from the beach and

479
00:39:14.559 --> 00:39:18.039
it pelted down and I've not said the word pelted

480
00:39:18.079 --> 00:39:24.199
for a long time, pelted down with rain, like really,

481
00:39:24.280 --> 00:39:29.199
we were all soaked through. Now, bearing in mind I

482
00:39:29.360 --> 00:39:33.159
was tiny and probably three drain three rain drops probably

483
00:39:33.199 --> 00:39:37.440
would have been enough to half wet me anyway. And

484
00:39:40.960 --> 00:39:42.880
you know a good thing about it is whenever it

485
00:39:42.960 --> 00:39:45.199
rained that hard, I just wet myself because I didn't

486
00:39:45.199 --> 00:39:47.559
it didn't matter. I could do a wee reading my

487
00:39:47.639 --> 00:39:54.559
pants and no one would know. Made a mistake one day, though,

488
00:39:55.079 --> 00:39:57.559
because it started to rain really hard and the top

489
00:39:57.559 --> 00:40:00.800
of me started getting completely drenched, I thought, okay, good,

490
00:40:00.840 --> 00:40:03.519
I can go to the toilet and it stopped raining.

491
00:40:05.599 --> 00:40:09.559
Not a good look. Not a good look at all.

492
00:40:11.719 --> 00:40:14.199
And other than that, I mean, it's not the only

493
00:40:14.239 --> 00:40:17.880
bad thing about it. The job interview didn't go very

494
00:40:17.880 --> 00:40:22.519
well either, Do do Do Do Do do? See. I

495
00:40:22.559 --> 00:40:26.920
was on the way to a job interview. I'm pretending

496
00:40:26.920 --> 00:40:29.679
I was still a kid, but Sally, I was on

497
00:40:29.719 --> 00:40:32.320
my way to job interview, and it rained, and I

498
00:40:32.480 --> 00:40:35.239
weed myself and I went into the job interview, and

499
00:40:35.679 --> 00:40:38.760
he thought I would weed myself and they didn't give

500
00:40:38.800 --> 00:40:42.079
me the job. That was That's what that was about.

501
00:40:43.159 --> 00:40:47.719
And I don't know if I wanted the job either,

502
00:40:50.280 --> 00:40:54.559
but I might have done. I don't know how many

503
00:40:54.639 --> 00:40:59.440
jobs have gone forward. I didn't get twice right twice.

504
00:40:59.840 --> 00:41:02.840
I've actually been offered two jobs at the same time

505
00:41:04.360 --> 00:41:07.800
and I had to choose. Happened twice once. I was

506
00:41:08.519 --> 00:41:11.639
in two thousand and four, I was offered a job

507
00:41:11.840 --> 00:41:16.840
in a call center, like selling car insurance again or

508
00:41:18.159 --> 00:41:25.039
working as a care assistant. Now. At the time, I

509
00:41:25.079 --> 00:41:29.000
wanted to be a care assistant, but the money would

510
00:41:29.039 --> 00:41:32.159
have been absolutely rubbish compared to well, I just wouldn't

511
00:41:32.159 --> 00:41:34.920
have been a good salary. But that's not what I wanted.

512
00:41:34.920 --> 00:41:37.239
I wanted to do something where I was helping people.

513
00:41:39.320 --> 00:41:42.000
But I chose to call center because first of all,

514
00:41:42.039 --> 00:41:44.320
I knew what I was doing because I'd already had

515
00:41:44.320 --> 00:41:48.159
a job doing that, and I was a second call center.

516
00:41:48.239 --> 00:41:51.199
I'd worked in second insurance job, i'd worked in third

517
00:41:51.239 --> 00:41:56.559
call center, and also I'd never done care work before,

518
00:41:56.679 --> 00:42:01.440
so I didn't know if or not i'd be right

519
00:42:01.559 --> 00:42:02.920
for that kind of job, didn't know if i'd be

520
00:42:02.960 --> 00:42:09.719
able to do it, And the second time was back

521
00:42:09.760 --> 00:42:12.639
in There might have been other times, but this another

522
00:42:12.679 --> 00:42:24.039
one I remember was in two thousand and twelve, around

523
00:42:24.159 --> 00:42:29.119
December year or end of November, I went for two

524
00:42:29.199 --> 00:42:32.760
jobs once. One was in a car insurance company, the

525
00:42:32.800 --> 00:42:34.880
third car insurance company that I ended up working in,

526
00:42:35.719 --> 00:42:38.440
so you mon't be surprised. I know that I took

527
00:42:38.440 --> 00:42:42.119
that one. But the other job I got offered was

528
00:42:42.960 --> 00:42:47.199
interviewing people on the phone, which actually was much more

529
00:42:47.440 --> 00:42:53.079
to my skill set because I wasn't selling anything. I

530
00:42:53.159 --> 00:42:56.840
got to be nice all day. I would have been

531
00:42:56.880 --> 00:43:00.079
good at it. I just would have been good. It

532
00:43:00.239 --> 00:43:07.719
would have been pretty much very easy job, but also

533
00:43:08.519 --> 00:43:13.480
rewarding because I'm giving people jobs and stuff, so it's

534
00:43:13.559 --> 00:43:18.480
like a like an outcore center working on behalf of

535
00:43:19.480 --> 00:43:27.400
big companies. But it wasn't. It didn't seem like a

536
00:43:27.440 --> 00:43:37.199
stable position, and so I just yeah, I just went

537
00:43:37.280 --> 00:43:45.719
with the insurance job. Sure there's a horse joke there somewhere.

538
00:43:47.079 --> 00:43:59.519
Stable position. So yeah, how did I talking about that?

539
00:43:59.599 --> 00:44:04.199
You asked me if I had any pets? Plumy. Yeah.

540
00:44:04.239 --> 00:44:12.639
So when we went there, do you want that last one?

541
00:44:12.679 --> 00:44:17.400
Do you want to how about eating your dinner? This

542
00:44:17.519 --> 00:44:23.960
is the last one. You've got no more treats and

543
00:44:24.039 --> 00:44:27.199
you're not having any more treats to next Thursday. So

544
00:44:27.320 --> 00:44:29.000
this is it. This is your this is your last

545
00:44:29.039 --> 00:44:35.840
treat for a whole week. Okay, awp to you. I

546
00:44:35.880 --> 00:44:42.360
went we had ants in the house. I mean that's

547
00:44:42.400 --> 00:44:51.199
not really technically a pet, is it. No? No, no pets.

548
00:44:54.199 --> 00:44:56.199
I'll let have this packet. He is probably gonna want

549
00:44:56.199 --> 00:45:03.519
to rip its bits. Let's just take out the thing

550
00:45:05.039 --> 00:45:07.079
which keeps the bag fresh, because I don't think I

551
00:45:07.159 --> 00:45:09.599
want him eating that. You'll be at the bag to

552
00:45:09.639 --> 00:45:14.519
bits now, trying to get to what's not in there.

553
00:45:21.320 --> 00:45:23.920
Not initially, I mean, we weren't in that house for

554
00:45:24.000 --> 00:45:28.599
very long because it was a little bit derelict. It was,

555
00:45:29.760 --> 00:45:31.800
I think it was condemned. So we had to move out.

556
00:45:32.800 --> 00:45:36.239
My dad joked something about, you know, it was fine

557
00:45:36.280 --> 00:45:41.599
until I moved in, which was a bit rude, too

558
00:45:41.639 --> 00:45:48.320
much farting, ha ha. And so when we moved into

559
00:45:48.480 --> 00:45:54.239
the next house, which is only probably five months maybe

560
00:45:54.280 --> 00:45:59.000
after moving there to that town, maybe less, maybe six

561
00:45:59.039 --> 00:46:03.639
months maybe less. It moved into this new buildhouse and

562
00:46:04.559 --> 00:46:15.159
we did have a cat called oh what was a

563
00:46:15.159 --> 00:46:20.679
cat called Tiger? Yeah, we had a cat called Tiger,

564
00:46:22.320 --> 00:46:29.599
and which was the first time I'd ever never stroked

565
00:46:29.599 --> 00:46:34.239
a pussy before. I'd never never had a dog, never never,

566
00:46:36.159 --> 00:46:41.639
never really been around any kind of pets in my life.

567
00:46:42.000 --> 00:46:46.920
So I was a little bit I didn't it wasn't

568
00:46:47.000 --> 00:46:53.400
quite sure how to how to I don't know, I

569
00:46:53.519 --> 00:46:59.199
didn't really know what to do with it. But yeah,

570
00:46:59.440 --> 00:47:03.079
so we had a cat. Unfortunately didn't but the cat

571
00:47:03.119 --> 00:47:11.719
didn't last long. Got yeah, it got I got run over,

572
00:47:11.800 --> 00:47:14.639
to be fair, that's what happened. Got over from school

573
00:47:14.679 --> 00:47:25.320
and I was upsetting. But other than that, there's nothing.

574
00:47:26.800 --> 00:47:32.519
And then I want a goldfish at the the Yearly Fair,

575
00:47:32.599 --> 00:47:36.119
which was thinking August or September.

576
00:47:38.719 --> 00:47:39.199
That's it. Thing.

577
00:47:39.239 --> 00:47:42.159
You can make people more nice place, don't start knocking

578
00:47:42.159 --> 00:47:50.199
stuff off. He wants me to give him more, but

579
00:47:50.280 --> 00:47:51.960
I can't give him more because I don't have more

580
00:47:52.000 --> 00:48:01.760
to give him. I really don't, no, So yeah, I

581
00:48:02.639 --> 00:48:06.599
won a goldfish called Popeye. I called him Popeye because

582
00:48:06.639 --> 00:48:09.400
he had one eye that was much bigger than the

583
00:48:09.400 --> 00:48:16.280
other eye. So Popeye was my first ever pet, really

584
00:48:17.039 --> 00:48:26.679
my first mind. And then it turned out he had

585
00:48:27.000 --> 00:48:32.159
an eye disease, so I felt a little bit guilty

586
00:48:32.239 --> 00:48:35.880
called him Popeye, but I didn't. I didn't think it

587
00:48:35.920 --> 00:48:38.639
was fair to change his name. I've always like it's

588
00:48:38.719 --> 00:48:41.360
all he knew. He didn't know any other name, and

589
00:48:41.400 --> 00:48:43.639
I don't think he realized the reason for the name,

590
00:48:43.760 --> 00:48:46.159
so there was no point telling him there. Didn't see

591
00:48:46.199 --> 00:48:49.840
any point changing it, because that just that would be

592
00:48:49.880 --> 00:48:53.760
confusing for him. So I had these little drops took

593
00:48:53.840 --> 00:48:58.159
him to the vet. I'm not sure if he did.

594
00:48:58.199 --> 00:48:59.880
I thought he might have taken him to the vet

595
00:49:00.079 --> 00:49:05.280
blind me, or maybe could you take a goldfish to

596
00:49:05.320 --> 00:49:08.800
the vet? I don't know. We've got these little drops

597
00:49:09.199 --> 00:49:13.039
which we put into his water, and it seemed to

598
00:49:13.079 --> 00:49:19.320
help a bit. I used to be fascinated with Popeye.

599
00:49:20.000 --> 00:49:26.559
It's just the whole kind of the poohing. I found

600
00:49:26.599 --> 00:49:34.159
weird the laying of cable, just the whole haven't it

601
00:49:34.239 --> 00:49:44.639
attached for that long? Wonder if whales do that? Mhmm.

602
00:49:45.639 --> 00:49:49.840
Well you couldn't fit a whale in a little goldfish thing,

603
00:49:49.920 --> 00:49:54.599
could you. My dad had a did we have a

604
00:49:54.599 --> 00:49:58.960
goldfish pond? Or is it my granddaddy put a goldfish

605
00:49:59.000 --> 00:49:59.440
pond in?

606
00:50:04.079 --> 00:50:04.239
Well?

607
00:50:04.239 --> 00:50:06.199
I think we might have got a goldfish pond, but

608
00:50:06.239 --> 00:50:08.400
it might have been my granddad. I can't remember. Now,

609
00:50:08.719 --> 00:50:14.159
that's weird. I'd have to ask my dad. There was

610
00:50:14.199 --> 00:50:18.079
definitely a goldfish pond in that garden in that house,

611
00:50:18.760 --> 00:50:23.039
just a little goldfish pond, and it was because used

612
00:50:23.039 --> 00:50:26.480
to put a tennis ball in there in the winter

613
00:50:27.239 --> 00:50:39.079
so that it always left an air an air hole. Mmm.

614
00:50:43.480 --> 00:50:46.639
I remember my brother, my little brother had a goldfish

615
00:50:47.639 --> 00:50:54.159
called Tonkatoy or Tony or something like that, and he

616
00:50:54.320 --> 00:50:58.400
was showing off. This is probably about ten years ago.

617
00:50:59.119 --> 00:51:03.639
You know, he's a he'll be nearly fifty soon. He

618
00:51:04.239 --> 00:51:10.119
was going on about how he is goldfish lived.

619
00:51:09.920 --> 00:51:12.320
For like.

620
00:51:14.239 --> 00:51:18.039
Seven years or whatever. He had it for seven years,

621
00:51:19.199 --> 00:51:21.880
and my dad started laughing. It was at the dinner table.

622
00:51:22.679 --> 00:51:24.840
That's my dad. They said, why are you laughing? He said, oh,

623
00:51:25.760 --> 00:51:29.239
we just kept replacing it every time he died. You

624
00:51:29.360 --> 00:51:36.159
just didn't notice, right, really, I said, why can you

625
00:51:36.199 --> 00:51:41.159
do that with a cat? But I guess it's you know,

626
00:51:41.199 --> 00:51:45.880
he didn't didn't want to son, My dad don't like animals.

627
00:51:47.360 --> 00:51:49.960
It's really weird. Because one of them said to me,

628
00:51:50.840 --> 00:51:53.880
because they won't come here, they won't enter my house.

629
00:51:55.320 --> 00:51:58.199
My dad won't set foot into this place, this flat.

630
00:52:01.320 --> 00:52:04.239
And I was told like was because I had an

631
00:52:04.320 --> 00:52:07.840
andre the ferret. Now I've got a dog. Doesn't like animals.

632
00:52:09.480 --> 00:52:12.760
Someone said these are allergic to animals. I said, well,

633
00:52:14.079 --> 00:52:17.480
that's obviously a lie. And I said, well it's not

634
00:52:17.559 --> 00:52:22.559
true because he spent thirty five years or whatever, forty

635
00:52:22.639 --> 00:52:27.159
years going into people's houses, you know, part of his job,

636
00:52:28.000 --> 00:52:30.960
so you know. And then one day he said, well,

637
00:52:30.960 --> 00:52:37.559
I'm not allergic to animals, just don't like them. Okay, good,

638
00:52:37.639 --> 00:52:42.239
at least you've got some truth. Then, but out of

639
00:52:42.599 --> 00:52:46.880
the four people he visits, they've all got animals, they've

640
00:52:46.880 --> 00:52:55.199
all got dogs, including me, but he doesn't have come here. Weird,

641
00:52:55.239 --> 00:52:58.480
isn't it meets me in a restaurant or a coffee place.

642
00:52:59.480 --> 00:53:08.639
Won't set put into this place. I don't know. There's

643
00:53:08.679 --> 00:53:14.280
a lot to discuss. That's not really the question you need.

644
00:53:14.440 --> 00:53:18.400
Come on me. I know I gave it to her.

645
00:53:24.280 --> 00:53:25.880
I'll tell you it was weird. The other day I

646
00:53:26.000 --> 00:53:29.119
gave him a packet and there's one bit left in.

647
00:53:29.320 --> 00:53:32.440
There's one of those shoes left. And he just looked

648
00:53:32.480 --> 00:53:36.679
at the packet. The packet wasn't closed, it was open.

649
00:53:39.639 --> 00:53:41.800
He wouldn't take it out. He just couldn't be bothered.

650
00:53:43.039 --> 00:53:47.880
But as soon as he'd eaten that bit, he destroyed

651
00:53:47.920 --> 00:54:05.679
the packet into many pieces. Is what he's doing right now.

652
00:54:05.840 --> 00:54:14.480
Other animals we had, Wow, this is noisy. Other animals.

653
00:54:23.400 --> 00:54:30.320
When I don't know how old, I was probably thirteen,

654
00:54:35.840 --> 00:54:41.679
my dad got a dog for my stepmom. She wanted

655
00:54:41.679 --> 00:54:46.360
a dog, but I couldn't just get a normal dog,

656
00:54:47.760 --> 00:54:53.199
just a normal standard dog, had normal dog size, you know.

657
00:54:55.039 --> 00:55:01.360
Came home with Saint Bernard, one of the world's biggest dogs,

658
00:55:04.840 --> 00:55:14.079
and cute as anything. As a puppy. I mean, all

659
00:55:14.119 --> 00:55:16.599
puppies are cute. There's no you can't there's no non

660
00:55:16.719 --> 00:55:20.599
cute puppy. It's like a none cute pussy cat, you know.

661
00:55:20.559 --> 00:55:20.840
What I mean.

662
00:55:20.880 --> 00:55:25.159
They're just always they're always cute, and they when they're

663
00:55:25.159 --> 00:55:29.760
little and then they oh, is that as noisy as

664
00:55:29.760 --> 00:55:33.159
for you as it is for me? That's really winded

665
00:55:33.239 --> 00:55:38.920
me up. It's still funny, though, I don't know why

666
00:55:39.599 --> 00:55:48.360
he's so silly. So I yeah. We had this dog

667
00:55:48.920 --> 00:55:53.400
called Misty Saint Bernard, and you literally, if you just

668
00:55:53.880 --> 00:55:58.960
you could watch it grow in front of you. I mean,

669
00:55:58.960 --> 00:55:59.719
I'm not even joking.

670
00:56:00.079 --> 00:56:04.360
Grew and grew and grew.

671
00:56:04.599 --> 00:56:07.480
I remember one day, everyone, not one day. I remember

672
00:56:07.519 --> 00:56:10.480
saying to my dad, is it finished growing yet? Said,

673
00:56:10.480 --> 00:56:14.559
you asked that yesterday and the day before that. You'll

674
00:56:14.559 --> 00:56:17.119
know when it's finished growing, so the hell, because you

675
00:56:17.159 --> 00:56:20.559
won't be able to see the sun anymore. And it

676
00:56:20.639 --> 00:56:25.239
was right huge, bigger than me. I was like thirteen

677
00:56:25.320 --> 00:56:30.960
fourteen or whatever. Thirteen bigger than me when it's fully grown,

678
00:56:31.320 --> 00:56:37.480
weighed more than me, probably weighed about twelve fourteen stone.

679
00:56:38.119 --> 00:56:44.119
I weighed about eight and a half stone. When I

680
00:56:44.159 --> 00:56:46.320
took it for a walk, it would just drag me along.

681
00:56:47.519 --> 00:56:50.599
I had no control over it, or over her, other

682
00:56:51.039 --> 00:56:54.079
no control over her. She was a beautiful dog. But

683
00:56:56.519 --> 00:56:58.239
she got too big for the house. So she and

684
00:56:58.280 --> 00:57:00.760
we had had quite a big house, but it wasn't

685
00:57:00.880 --> 00:57:05.000
big in the sense of I had a few rooms,

686
00:57:05.320 --> 00:57:09.639
but it wasn't big as finny. There's no point looking

687
00:57:09.679 --> 00:57:13.360
for stuff that isn't there. It's not there anymore. It's

688
00:57:13.360 --> 00:57:21.679
not there anymore, my dearest. The thing is, my dad

689
00:57:21.679 --> 00:57:26.320
built a kennel outside, and she lived outside because she

690
00:57:26.920 --> 00:57:30.199
just literally she'd get in and she'd knock everything over.

691
00:57:31.000 --> 00:57:32.920
She struggled to get through the door. I mean, she

692
00:57:33.119 --> 00:57:41.559
was huge, really big, and she wasn't she didn't have

693
00:57:41.639 --> 00:57:48.199
what she needed. And this is her time, probably forty

694
00:57:48.280 --> 00:57:51.320
so maybe it was when I was fourteen. This was

695
00:57:51.360 --> 00:57:53.119
at a time when everything was starting to go a

696
00:57:53.159 --> 00:58:02.880
little bit wrong, and you know, both my brothers ended

697
00:58:02.960 --> 00:58:08.719
up moving out. My stepmom went to start going back

698
00:58:08.760 --> 00:58:11.760
to work, so she was hardly ever there. My dad

699
00:58:11.800 --> 00:58:14.960
was always at working. I'd be babysitting my little brother

700
00:58:15.039 --> 00:58:22.480
after school during the summer holidays, and Misty was just

701
00:58:22.840 --> 00:58:27.480
left on her own too much. There wasn't really anyone's fault.

702
00:58:27.519 --> 00:58:30.960
It's just that wasn't planned. Just how it ended up being.

703
00:58:31.719 --> 00:58:34.360
You know, it went from being a big, full family

704
00:58:34.440 --> 00:58:40.559
house to her. I don't know, something quite strange for

705
00:58:40.639 --> 00:58:47.440
the last year or so, and Misty she just, I mean,

706
00:58:47.519 --> 00:58:53.239
she'd jump on me. Every time I was anywhere near her.

707
00:58:53.280 --> 00:58:55.519
She would jump on me and pin me down and

708
00:58:55.599 --> 00:59:04.840
dribble all over my school uniform. And you know, that

709
00:59:04.960 --> 00:59:06.639
was a time when I didn't really want to go

710
00:59:06.679 --> 00:59:11.159
to school with a stain on my trousers going home

711
00:59:11.199 --> 00:59:14.880
from you know, school, going home from lunch. What you've

712
00:59:14.920 --> 00:59:18.000
been doing? Nothing? Why is that big stain on your crotch?

713
00:59:20.239 --> 00:59:22.599
Don't worry about it? What about I want on your jumper?

714
00:59:22.840 --> 00:59:27.400
Oh that's Misty. Misty just that's dribbling on me. Why

715
00:59:27.400 --> 00:59:29.360
didn't you say Misty did on your crotch as well?

716
00:59:30.000 --> 00:59:30.400
I don't know.

717
00:59:30.480 --> 00:59:33.960
I just didn't think quick enough. But she was. She

718
00:59:34.079 --> 00:59:39.239
was just like beautiful dog, messive though massive. It probably

719
00:59:39.239 --> 00:59:42.360
costs more to feed her than it did me on

720
00:59:42.440 --> 00:59:44.800
a week because I were feeding her tripe, which was

721
00:59:44.840 --> 00:59:51.679
not cheap. But she was too big, way too big,

722
00:59:52.719 --> 00:59:56.679
and it got to the point where I sit sort

723
00:59:56.679 --> 00:59:57.719
of try and go. I used to go in the

724
00:59:57.760 --> 01:00:02.079
front door because I couldn't go around the back because

725
01:00:02.079 --> 01:00:06.119
she'd jump on me. I was not scared, but a

726
01:00:06.119 --> 01:00:11.719
little bit kind of. Yeah, it was a shame. I

727
01:00:11.760 --> 01:00:14.159
couldn't take her for walks. I couldn't handle her. She

728
01:00:14.239 --> 01:00:17.719
was too strong, so she didn't get any walks, any

729
01:00:17.719 --> 01:00:22.719
proper walks anymore. So yeah, that was that wasn't good.

730
01:00:22.760 --> 01:00:25.280
She did found that my dad found her a better home,

731
01:00:25.440 --> 01:00:31.400
a proper home. But I mean she had a big

732
01:00:31.440 --> 01:00:34.920
garden to run around in. But you know, for me

733
01:00:35.239 --> 01:00:37.400
it was a big garden I could run, but for her,

734
01:00:37.519 --> 01:00:40.280
she could just like a couple of jumps and she'd

735
01:00:40.320 --> 01:00:43.920
be either side of the the fence. So it wasn't

736
01:00:44.000 --> 01:00:52.239
really that big for her. It was more like, yeah,

737
01:00:52.400 --> 01:00:54.719
just a tiny little mat really, the grassho was for

738
01:00:54.760 --> 01:00:59.199
her if she was so, she wasn't that big. She

739
01:00:59.320 --> 01:01:02.639
was half the side in the house. She was quite big,

740
01:01:04.119 --> 01:01:17.000
and she's white and brown. For of course huge, absolutely huge.

741
01:01:17.320 --> 01:01:20.119
Ever since then, I've not I don't know, I just

742
01:01:20.719 --> 01:01:25.199
not scared of big dogs. I just I can never

743
01:01:25.239 --> 01:01:27.800
have a big dog. I can only really have a

744
01:01:27.800 --> 01:01:29.440
little dog. If I was going to have a dog,

745
01:01:29.679 --> 01:01:32.719
I've always thought that in my mind. I've lived with

746
01:01:32.800 --> 01:01:37.320
dogs on a few occasions. Other than that, I lived

747
01:01:38.239 --> 01:01:44.679
in London with a dog. One two, three different dogs

748
01:01:44.719 --> 01:01:51.079
in London, and they were all kind of medium sized dogs.

749
01:01:51.119 --> 01:01:53.119
They weren't big, they weren't little, they were just kind

750
01:01:53.119 --> 01:01:57.280
of medium kind of size. And I just thought, well,

751
01:01:58.000 --> 01:02:02.239
nothing bigger than that, because they're hard to manage if

752
01:02:02.239 --> 01:02:07.159
they're being naughty, because the dogs are strong. Vin he's

753
01:02:07.199 --> 01:02:11.119
really strong, but I can. I can beat him in

754
01:02:11.159 --> 01:02:16.960
an arm missile, you know, just about. So I did

755
01:02:17.000 --> 01:02:18.760
think if I was because I thought back getting a

756
01:02:18.800 --> 01:02:23.000
dog when I first moved in there in twenty fifteen,

757
01:02:24.760 --> 01:02:27.320
and I did look. I got permission from the council

758
01:02:28.159 --> 01:02:33.639
and I started to look at a shelter and there

759
01:02:33.719 --> 01:02:40.440
was this Pomeranian, little Pomeranian, and I thought, oh, he's

760
01:02:40.480 --> 01:02:44.760
so cute. But he didn't like me. And because he

761
01:02:44.800 --> 01:02:48.400
didn't like me, I thought, now, you know, I had

762
01:02:48.400 --> 01:02:51.199
this little fantasy that if I ever went to a shelter,

763
01:02:51.960 --> 01:02:53.559
it would be the dog that came up to me

764
01:02:53.760 --> 01:02:58.599
that I would take home. Didn't didn't work like that.

765
01:03:00.079 --> 01:03:08.159
They all none of them liked me. So yeah, I

766
01:03:08.239 --> 01:03:09.920
don't know. I just I suppose I had a little

767
01:03:10.400 --> 01:03:12.920
fantasy of what it would really be like compared to

768
01:03:12.920 --> 01:03:16.760
what it really was like. And then when I did

769
01:03:16.840 --> 01:03:19.559
end up getting my own, So, if you want to

770
01:03:19.559 --> 01:03:25.719
call their pet, Andre a little ferret. He hated me

771
01:03:25.760 --> 01:03:28.000
when I first got him, but I fell in love

772
01:03:28.039 --> 01:03:30.159
with him as soon as I saw him. I just

773
01:03:30.159 --> 01:03:34.119
fell in love with him. It's his little, tiny little face,

774
01:03:34.280 --> 01:03:38.199
little body, but his tiny patches on his eyes, and

775
01:03:38.320 --> 01:03:40.840
just I fell in love with him. And every time

776
01:03:40.840 --> 01:03:42.920
I picked him up, he hissed and he bit me.

777
01:03:43.840 --> 01:03:46.000
He absolutely didn't like me at all.

778
01:03:48.440 --> 01:03:48.599
Too.

779
01:03:48.679 --> 01:03:51.840
A couple of weeks before he sort of accepted that

780
01:03:51.920 --> 01:03:54.360
I existed, he wasn't able to get rid of me,

781
01:03:57.320 --> 01:04:01.400
and then we were kind of inseparable. Well, he couldn't

782
01:04:01.400 --> 01:04:03.360
get away from me, really, I suppose that's the best

783
01:04:03.360 --> 01:04:10.519
way to explain it. And so, yeah, we had pets,

784
01:04:11.519 --> 01:04:14.679
but only really them too. So really, when I first

785
01:04:14.800 --> 01:04:20.519
moved there, other than the nts, there was nothing. Then

786
01:04:20.519 --> 01:04:24.320
we had the cat and she wasn't there for long unfortunately.

787
01:04:26.800 --> 01:04:30.519
And then when we moved, I had my little goldfish,

788
01:04:30.559 --> 01:04:36.719
and then when we moved I didn't have a goldfish anymore.

789
01:04:37.039 --> 01:04:48.159
Then we had the Misty, the huge, huge dog. In

790
01:04:48.280 --> 01:04:53.360
about when I was about fourteen, maybe fifteen fourteen fifteen.

791
01:04:53.840 --> 01:04:56.719
I lose track of the times, really, but it was

792
01:04:56.760 --> 01:05:01.880
a point when neither of my brothers were living there,

793
01:05:01.880 --> 01:05:04.840
so I was on the top floor on my own,

794
01:05:06.079 --> 01:05:09.559
which was weird, and I didn't like living with them,

795
01:05:09.599 --> 01:05:11.159
but I missed them when they weren't there.

796
01:05:12.360 --> 01:05:12.840
It's weird.

797
01:05:12.880 --> 01:05:18.840
And it's like the brother just above me, the two

798
01:05:18.960 --> 01:05:21.000
years older. He used to wind me up all the time,

799
01:05:21.800 --> 01:05:24.440
but I missed him when he left. When he moved out,

800
01:05:24.519 --> 01:05:28.000
I was like, oh, because I'd spent my whole life

801
01:05:28.000 --> 01:05:34.000
with him, literally from the day I was born to

802
01:05:34.039 --> 01:05:40.079
fifteen or fourteen fifteen whatever. I'd been with him every

803
01:05:40.119 --> 01:05:44.400
single day of my life, moving around the country, living

804
01:05:44.400 --> 01:05:48.960
in different places. So suddenly he wasn't there. It was

805
01:05:49.199 --> 01:05:53.599
very strange, even though we didn't necessarily get on that well.

806
01:05:54.920 --> 01:05:58.119
And then my other brother, the oldest one, he moved out,

807
01:05:59.239 --> 01:06:07.159
and that was strange. It's like just being at the

808
01:06:07.159 --> 01:06:11.000
top of that old house on my own, very weird.

809
01:06:11.360 --> 01:06:15.880
So what I did is I got myself a budgy

810
01:06:15.920 --> 01:06:20.719
to replace him. It's okay, well i'd replaced him a budgy,

811
01:06:22.280 --> 01:06:25.159
and I did. I got myself a budgy in a

812
01:06:25.199 --> 01:06:27.760
cage had it in my bedroom start with, but it

813
01:06:27.800 --> 01:06:31.159
was a little bit too clattery, a bit annoying, I thought.

814
01:06:31.400 --> 01:06:34.239
I put it in the other bedroom, in my brother's

815
01:06:35.519 --> 01:06:41.840
bedroom at the front of the house, and unfortunately there

816
01:06:41.880 --> 01:06:49.840
was no heat and it froze. There was, yeah, there was,

817
01:06:49.920 --> 01:06:53.320
there was. This's terrible, really, but it was so this

818
01:06:53.400 --> 01:06:59.719
must have been during the winter and there's no yeah,

819
01:07:00.079 --> 01:07:05.440
that heating to be off. I think my dad's always

820
01:07:05.440 --> 01:07:08.719
had a bit of a problem with heating. I remember

821
01:07:08.719 --> 01:07:11.519
when I was living with I moved out and lived

822
01:07:11.559 --> 01:07:17.800
with my stepmom and her mom in the flat then

823
01:07:18.000 --> 01:07:21.320
my step man's flat. So my little brother and my

824
01:07:21.519 --> 01:07:26.039
stepmom were in one bed, my step nn was in

825
01:07:26.079 --> 01:07:28.960
the other bed in the other room, and then I

826
01:07:29.079 --> 01:07:31.880
was in the living room floor on a little camper bed.

827
01:07:34.400 --> 01:07:37.760
I didn't like that, so I went and moved back.

828
01:07:38.000 --> 01:07:39.719
I asked my dad if I could move back into

829
01:07:39.719 --> 01:07:43.159
the house because it was horrible, and he said, yeah,

830
01:07:45.280 --> 01:07:49.079
it was freezing cold. There was no hit, so that

831
01:07:49.119 --> 01:07:53.280
you're going to put the heat and said, nope, no heat.

832
01:07:54.760 --> 01:07:58.119
I had to move out again. I was fifteen years old,

833
01:07:58.119 --> 01:08:03.159
by the way, I wasn't even lead they should they

834
01:08:03.239 --> 01:08:07.000
had it right, they had a duty of care, but hey,

835
01:08:07.760 --> 01:08:10.599
in back in them days, it wasn't really enforced, but

836
01:08:10.880 --> 01:08:13.880
freezing colds. I went back to the flat where as one,

837
01:08:14.440 --> 01:08:18.039
but I didn't want to be there because just I

838
01:08:18.119 --> 01:08:21.439
missed my own room, you know, my own stuff, my

839
01:08:21.520 --> 01:08:25.279
own space. And I know I'd only been there for

840
01:08:25.359 --> 01:08:27.479
a little while because the house had to get sold.

841
01:08:28.000 --> 01:08:32.800
But would the house have to get sold if I

842
01:08:32.840 --> 01:08:37.680
was living there, I don't know. It probably would have

843
01:08:37.720 --> 01:08:40.680
put it off, probably wouldn't have had to sell it

844
01:08:40.760 --> 01:08:48.039
until I was sixteen or maybe eighteen. I don't know

845
01:08:50.000 --> 01:08:51.800
which would have been Getting it would have been better

846
01:08:52.399 --> 01:08:54.359
because the house would have been worth a lot more

847
01:08:58.079 --> 01:09:00.880
because it went up from being I think sixty six

848
01:09:00.960 --> 01:09:05.800
grand when they sold it in nineteen eighty six or

849
01:09:05.920 --> 01:09:10.479
nineteen eighty seven, in nineteen eighty eight went up to

850
01:09:11.359 --> 01:09:16.680
two hundred and fifty thousand pounds. Can you believe that?

851
01:09:16.680 --> 01:09:19.119
That's not even lie? I remember I went into my

852
01:09:19.199 --> 01:09:22.319
dad's because he had a new house by then, like

853
01:09:22.399 --> 01:09:25.279
he'd got himself another house. So I guess they split

854
01:09:25.319 --> 01:09:28.479
the money. She took her money, he took his and

855
01:09:28.880 --> 01:09:32.479
put a deposit on a new house. So I went

856
01:09:32.520 --> 01:09:35.000
in to his house just to see him, and there

857
01:09:35.039 --> 01:09:38.079
was this thing he pointed to it. It was on

858
01:09:38.760 --> 01:09:42.720
this little chip board wooden board thing where he posts

859
01:09:43.479 --> 01:09:47.000
no pins stuff on and there was a picture of

860
01:09:47.079 --> 01:09:50.399
our house with a two hundred and fifty thousand pounds

861
01:09:51.039 --> 01:09:57.359
price tag, and you could see a dent in the

862
01:09:57.399 --> 01:10:00.119
wall where he had been head by in it. It

863
01:10:00.239 --> 01:10:06.199
was so angry because a year just over a year,

864
01:10:06.279 --> 01:10:09.840
year and a half, and it went up by that much.

865
01:10:12.159 --> 01:10:14.640
A year later it dropped down by about to about

866
01:10:14.640 --> 01:10:17.319
one hundred and twenty five or two years later, so

867
01:10:17.359 --> 01:10:21.800
it was a big drop. But you know it's now

868
01:10:21.840 --> 01:10:25.119
worth about seven hundred to eight hundred thousand when onlineas

869
01:10:25.199 --> 01:10:30.800
to search, maybe a little bit more. But it's just

870
01:10:30.880 --> 01:10:33.560
like wow, So if we did, just if I, if

871
01:10:33.560 --> 01:10:36.079
I had moved in there, I might have been doing

872
01:10:36.239 --> 01:10:42.119
everyone a favor, like everyone i'd stayed there, and the

873
01:10:42.239 --> 01:10:46.520
council so like you I have to especially if I

874
01:10:46.560 --> 01:10:49.239
was on a YTS scheme, which I was said no,

875
01:10:49.520 --> 01:10:54.600
you have to look after until he's eighteen and do

876
01:10:54.640 --> 01:10:59.520
your care whatever, which meant the house price would have

877
01:10:59.520 --> 01:11:03.520
gone up. My dad could have sold that one hundred

878
01:11:03.520 --> 01:11:09.239
and twenty five grand each you would have been better off.

879
01:11:09.319 --> 01:11:11.319
He would have been better off. He would probably would

880
01:11:11.359 --> 01:11:15.199
be by his house outright, the one he got. I mean,

881
01:11:15.279 --> 01:11:25.800
that's would have been amazing if if if if so Yeah, see, yeah,

882
01:11:25.800 --> 01:11:31.000
we had pets. The budget was a weird one because

883
01:11:31.399 --> 01:11:35.840
I tried to give him mouth to mouth resuscitation and

884
01:11:35.960 --> 01:11:39.600
that didn't seem to work. So I thought, I'm not

885
01:11:39.640 --> 01:11:41.680
proud of this. I did do this. I didn't. I mean,

886
01:11:41.720 --> 01:11:43.880
I just thought to myself because I didn't know if

887
01:11:43.880 --> 01:11:51.279
he was still alive or not, and because he just

888
01:11:51.479 --> 01:11:53.119
I didn't know if because he was not looking at me,

889
01:11:53.119 --> 01:11:54.439
I didn't know if he was giving me the cold

890
01:11:54.439 --> 01:11:58.079
shoulder literally, but if he was just annoyed because I

891
01:11:58.199 --> 01:12:04.359
left him on his own, and I don't know, I

892
01:12:04.399 --> 01:12:06.119
was a kid. I just didn't really know what to do.

893
01:12:07.000 --> 01:12:14.039
So I thought because I was up three stories high,

894
01:12:14.319 --> 01:12:16.199
and I thought, well, if I just put it out,

895
01:12:16.199 --> 01:12:21.159
it's going to fly away, isn't it. And Okay, so

896
01:12:21.359 --> 01:12:27.560
I know budgies that generally don't necessarily it might not

897
01:12:27.600 --> 01:12:30.039
have a great life out in the wild, it's going

898
01:12:30.039 --> 01:12:32.560
to a better life than what it has there, you know,

899
01:12:33.960 --> 01:12:40.279
And so I kind of he didn't fly. That's what

900
01:12:40.279 --> 01:12:44.000
I'm going to say. He didn't fly. So that was

901
01:12:44.359 --> 01:12:49.920
the end of that. Never give me mouf to mouth

902
01:12:49.960 --> 01:12:55.680
with suscitation to a budgy. It's a hard one to judge,

903
01:12:55.960 --> 01:13:01.000
you know. But I did do That's genuinely true. I'm

904
01:13:01.000 --> 01:13:03.840
not I'm not proud of it. I just something I did.

905
01:13:05.680 --> 01:13:10.520
And the hard compressions, it's very hard to really know

906
01:13:10.520 --> 01:13:17.560
how hard to push. If they squeak, you might be

907
01:13:17.600 --> 01:13:24.199
pushing too hard. So also, have you ever had one

908
01:13:24.840 --> 01:13:27.720
driving test lesson car or motorbike?

909
01:13:29.159 --> 01:13:29.399
Yeah?

910
01:13:29.439 --> 01:13:34.439
I had more than one. I've had nineteen ninety one,

911
01:13:34.439 --> 01:13:37.079
I had a couple of driving lessons. Two thousand and four.

912
01:13:37.119 --> 01:13:41.560
I had a few driving lessons ninety one. I just

913
01:13:41.600 --> 01:13:51.880
couldn't be bothered. Just didn't see the point. And my

914
01:13:52.039 --> 01:14:02.239
spatial awareness is not necessarily perfect, which showed both times

915
01:14:02.279 --> 01:14:08.720
I tried to learn to drive, I was too close

916
01:14:09.039 --> 01:14:11.880
or too far. I could never I can never really

917
01:14:11.960 --> 01:14:15.920
figure out where the car should be. That might come

918
01:14:15.960 --> 01:14:20.119
with time, But yeah, I didn't. I didn't enjoy it.

919
01:14:22.880 --> 01:14:26.520
The second time in two thousand and four, my driving

920
01:14:26.560 --> 01:14:32.439
instructor was too enthusiastic. It was only a young bloke.

921
01:14:32.560 --> 01:14:34.279
I mean I was young as well myself. I was

922
01:14:34.319 --> 01:14:40.520
only twenty three or twenty four whatever, But I just

923
01:14:41.279 --> 01:14:45.840
twenty three, probably thirty three, not twenty three. I was

924
01:14:45.920 --> 01:14:48.960
thirty three. He was in his early twenties, i'd say.

925
01:14:50.079 --> 01:14:55.600
But it was super excited, super enthusiastic, motivational, and I

926
01:14:55.680 --> 01:14:58.920
just wanted him to calm down. Oh you can do it,

927
01:14:58.960 --> 01:15:02.319
you can do like, come on. I did wanted to

928
01:15:02.359 --> 01:15:04.520
be negative. I just didn't want him to be like

929
01:15:04.880 --> 01:15:05.600
over the top.

930
01:15:08.359 --> 01:15:08.560
You know.

931
01:15:08.800 --> 01:15:12.600
It was like emotionally doing cartwheels all the time. It

932
01:15:12.720 --> 01:15:15.199
was just a little bit, a little bit too much.

933
01:15:16.399 --> 01:15:19.640
So I just whenever he came around, I just hid,

934
01:15:19.760 --> 01:15:24.319
didn't answer the door. I ended up paying for quite

935
01:15:24.359 --> 01:15:28.000
a lot of lessons I didn't turn up for anyway.

936
01:15:28.000 --> 01:15:33.520
Any end. I stopped. I went into the DVLA or

937
01:15:33.680 --> 01:15:35.800
I don't know wherever, the places that I always take

938
01:15:35.880 --> 01:15:37.880
my lessons, and I went to the reception. I said

939
01:15:37.880 --> 01:15:41.520
I'd like to cancel my lessons please, and she said, well,

940
01:15:41.960 --> 01:15:45.039
who you driving with? And I said the name of

941
01:15:45.079 --> 01:15:47.920
the person who's your instructor. She said, I'll just go

942
01:15:47.960 --> 01:15:53.960
and get him. I said, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,

943
01:15:54.560 --> 01:15:59.960
and she said too enthusiastic. I said, yeah, too enthusiast.

944
01:16:00.199 --> 01:16:05.319
We heard that a lot. I said okay, and we canceled,

945
01:16:05.399 --> 01:16:09.600
now is it? And I moved so we couldn't find

946
01:16:09.600 --> 01:16:16.520
out where I was. What was my longest relationship? This

947
01:16:16.600 --> 01:16:21.239
is from Ben again, So I are you talking about

948
01:16:21.319 --> 01:16:29.239
romantic relationships? I guess the longest one I go through them.

949
01:16:29.359 --> 01:16:38.800
But I had one ninety one, which was that finished

950
01:16:38.840 --> 01:16:45.279
in the summer. I had one ninety three, sort of

951
01:16:45.319 --> 01:16:56.119
December ninety three all the way to September ish ninety four,

952
01:16:58.520 --> 01:17:02.319
so it's what's that October? So what's that? Nine months?

953
01:17:02.399 --> 01:17:06.800
So nine months, that's quite a long one. And there

954
01:17:06.840 --> 01:17:15.600
was one in two thousand and nineteen ninety six. It

955
01:17:15.840 --> 01:17:28.920
started probably May, maybe June nineteen ninety six, until probably

956
01:17:31.680 --> 01:17:50.279
around April nineteen ninety seven. So what's that July, August, September, October, November, December, January, February, March, April.

957
01:17:50.479 --> 01:17:55.119
So yeah, that was about ten months. So that was

958
01:17:55.840 --> 01:17:59.960
probably the longest relationship I was ever in, like romantic relationship.

959
01:18:01.439 --> 01:18:05.199
I'm being very vague with a word romantic, very very

960
01:18:05.359 --> 01:18:36.119
generous with that word, but yeah, that's a look. I'm

961
01:18:36.119 --> 01:18:42.960
trying to think. No, that's it. That was That was

962
01:18:43.000 --> 01:18:47.560
the longest one ten months. But if you I was

963
01:18:47.560 --> 01:18:52.279
just listening to some of the gardeners then and sometimes

964
01:18:52.279 --> 01:18:54.079
there's a voice and I just don't recognize it, and

965
01:18:54.119 --> 01:18:58.319
it sounds clear. It's like is it outside my garden?

966
01:19:01.800 --> 01:19:06.600
So yeah, that's my longest relationship. I'm trying to think

967
01:19:06.600 --> 01:19:11.279
of it. I had any other relationships. I've had a

968
01:19:11.319 --> 01:19:22.640
few little ones, a few little short relationships kind of yeah,

969
01:19:22.720 --> 01:19:34.279
I mean ninety five, I think one two one. I

970
01:19:34.319 --> 01:19:39.479
had two. You had two relationships ninety five, one in

971
01:19:39.600 --> 01:19:49.000
ninety six, one in ninety seven. During college, I didn't

972
01:19:49.000 --> 01:19:53.199
really have I had a friendship with a female, but

973
01:19:53.239 --> 01:19:56.399
it wasn't a relationship, but it was a friendship and

974
01:19:56.439 --> 01:19:58.720
then it turned into something a bit more at the

975
01:19:58.880 --> 01:20:03.039
end of the course, at the end of the university degree.

976
01:20:03.720 --> 01:20:08.359
But for the three years we were just really good friends.

977
01:20:08.439 --> 01:20:13.880
And then that kind of didn't really come to anything.

978
01:20:14.079 --> 01:20:25.439
We were just friends, very close friends. And no, no,

979
01:20:25.640 --> 01:20:35.239
not really the last ten years pretty much it's been

980
01:20:35.239 --> 01:20:40.119
a dry well. But yeah, as long as one about

981
01:20:40.159 --> 01:20:45.920
ten ten months. Do you imagine saying ten years? Wow?

982
01:20:46.800 --> 01:20:52.159
Ten months longest one, Cindy, would you tell us about

983
01:20:52.159 --> 01:20:55.720
the TV license tax? Do you pay it? Do you

984
01:20:55.760 --> 01:20:58.159
pay it on every TV in the household or is

985
01:20:58.159 --> 01:21:02.199
it one feed for per house regardless of the number

986
01:21:02.199 --> 01:21:06.039
of TVs. Mike's answered this, so he hasn't answered. It's

987
01:21:06.039 --> 01:21:08.439
a good question. I've never understood the whole UK TV

988
01:21:08.960 --> 01:21:12.039
license thing. How do they know if you have a

989
01:21:12.079 --> 01:21:15.159
TV or not? Do they have the right to just

990
01:21:15.439 --> 01:21:18.600
enter your house and look at all your technology devices?

991
01:21:19.560 --> 01:21:22.640
And Hope has written I had a friend who had

992
01:21:22.640 --> 01:21:25.039
to prove she didn't have a TV in order to

993
01:21:25.079 --> 01:21:28.039
avoid the tax. She was so so angry she had

994
01:21:28.039 --> 01:21:30.520
to let the TV tax people into search a flat.

995
01:21:30.960 --> 01:21:36.039
I'm Canadian, as she was when she moved to England. Okay,

996
01:21:36.039 --> 01:21:41.199
I feel there's a lot of questions there. So yeah,

997
01:21:41.359 --> 01:21:48.920
it's one Okay, So in this flat that I live,

998
01:21:49.680 --> 01:21:53.000
it wouldn't manified one hundred TVs as far as I'm aware,

999
01:21:53.520 --> 01:21:59.199
it's this one TV license per household. They do do

1000
01:21:59.239 --> 01:22:08.159
a discount for blind people, and so the wholes found

1001
01:22:08.159 --> 01:22:15.079
that just incredibly rude. To be fair, I just I

1002
01:22:15.079 --> 01:22:17.159
don't know, I don't know if there's a discount for

1003
01:22:17.199 --> 01:22:21.920
people that are pensioners. But I pay what do I

1004
01:22:21.960 --> 01:22:26.640
pay this other? Look do I pay every single month?

1005
01:22:28.479 --> 01:22:34.159
TV license? Pay? I think it's fifteen pound a month

1006
01:22:43.720 --> 01:22:46.239
tv TV it's at the beginning of the months. And

1007
01:22:46.319 --> 01:22:53.039
also look first of May fifteen pound. So I pay

1008
01:22:53.159 --> 01:22:58.600
fifteen pound a month for my TV license. I only

1009
01:22:58.640 --> 01:23:02.800
have one television. But the way they figured it's one

1010
01:23:02.840 --> 01:23:08.800
of those really really, it's to me such a dumb thing,

1011
01:23:09.800 --> 01:23:13.720
a dumb idea. It made sense originally, you know, when

1012
01:23:13.720 --> 01:23:19.319
they first started doing it, I guess, But there was

1013
01:23:19.439 --> 01:23:25.880
two channels, BBC one, BBC two, both of them neither

1014
01:23:25.920 --> 01:23:32.359
of them had adverts, although they had sponsorship and stuff

1015
01:23:32.399 --> 01:23:35.479
like that, but they didn't have adverts, so it was

1016
01:23:35.479 --> 01:23:43.560
a public service. Then ITV came along, which was financed

1017
01:23:43.600 --> 01:23:49.640
by advertising. Channel four came along, financed by advertising. Channel

1018
01:23:49.720 --> 01:23:54.720
five came along, financed by advertising, and then over the years,

1019
01:23:56.720 --> 01:24:06.800
everything except BBC channels are financed by appetizing all of them.

1020
01:24:06.920 --> 01:24:12.640
Yet we all still have to pay for BBC even

1021
01:24:12.640 --> 01:24:16.920
if people don't use BBC. And you know, I see

1022
01:24:17.000 --> 01:24:20.119
YouTube videos where people say, oh, come on, you don't

1023
01:24:20.119 --> 01:24:21.600
have to let them in, or if you do, let

1024
01:24:21.600 --> 01:24:24.960
them in they have to prove that you watch BBC

1025
01:24:25.079 --> 01:24:30.479
and it's not It's not quite as simple as that. There.

1026
01:24:30.560 --> 01:24:34.239
They can be a little bit intimidating, you know, these

1027
01:24:34.279 --> 01:24:37.159
people coming around, they do it for a living. They

1028
01:24:37.239 --> 01:24:40.600
know what buttons the push, they know how to get

1029
01:24:40.640 --> 01:24:44.720
people to open up and how to incriminate themselves or whatever.

1030
01:24:45.560 --> 01:24:49.279
And it seems weird that some people go to prison

1031
01:24:49.359 --> 01:24:52.840
for not paying a TV license or refusing to pay

1032
01:24:52.880 --> 01:24:58.159
the TV license. They actually go to prison. How can

1033
01:24:58.199 --> 01:25:04.279
that in any world be justifiable? That doesn't me with

1034
01:25:04.439 --> 01:25:09.760
no strong views. It just seems ridiculous, just all absurd, absurd,

1035
01:25:10.079 --> 01:25:15.560
but not in a funny way. And so yeah, we

1036
01:25:15.680 --> 01:25:19.279
do have to have a TV license unless you can

1037
01:25:19.319 --> 01:25:24.560
prove that you do not have a television. And they

1038
01:25:24.720 --> 01:25:31.319
also now include streaming. So if you stream TV, even

1039
01:25:31.359 --> 01:25:35.319
if it isn't the BBC, So if you stream itv

1040
01:25:35.960 --> 01:25:39.479
app which has got adverts on, you're using the TV.

1041
01:25:39.600 --> 01:25:44.439
So you watch TV, any kind of terrestrial television, even

1042
01:25:44.439 --> 01:25:48.159
if it's streaming and you're viewing it through the internet,

1043
01:25:48.880 --> 01:25:52.119
you have to pay a tie TV license for it,

1044
01:25:52.199 --> 01:25:59.600
according to them. I'm sure there's ways around it. I

1045
01:25:59.680 --> 01:26:03.600
know people that don't pay the license, and they just

1046
01:26:03.600 --> 01:26:08.640
don't answer the door. I never used to pay the

1047
01:26:08.680 --> 01:26:13.479
TV license until I moved here, but I pretty much

1048
01:26:13.520 --> 01:26:18.760
always lived in a multiple occupancy house, so the landlord

1049
01:26:18.840 --> 01:26:24.520
paid the TV license for the building. So I never

1050
01:26:24.560 --> 01:26:28.600
had to pay a TV license until I moved here,

1051
01:26:28.640 --> 01:26:32.600
and I thought, I'll just pay it because I've seen

1052
01:26:32.640 --> 01:26:36.199
what happens when people don't pay it and they get hounded,

1053
01:26:38.880 --> 01:26:47.079
and how do they watch that? Look, how do they

1054
01:26:47.159 --> 01:26:48.640
know if you have a TV or not? So this

1055
01:26:48.760 --> 01:26:57.800
is Mike, Well, I have these Well, they basically just

1056
01:26:57.920 --> 01:27:02.239
look at who's paid for a TV license. So if

1057
01:27:02.239 --> 01:27:05.199
they've got everyone in a road except number forty three,

1058
01:27:05.359 --> 01:27:10.159
seventy two, and sixty five haven't paid a TV license,

1059
01:27:11.359 --> 01:27:15.479
then they know where to go. And they're just going

1060
01:27:15.560 --> 01:27:20.960
to assume that everybody has a TV, because most everybody

1061
01:27:21.000 --> 01:27:25.399
does have a TV. Some people don't, but most people do,

1062
01:27:25.479 --> 01:27:29.479
and even those people who don't. Actually, I remember having

1063
01:27:29.479 --> 01:27:34.640
this conversation with a dog walker and they said, oh yeah,

1064
01:27:35.079 --> 01:27:37.800
they said something about TV, and I said, wait a minute,

1065
01:27:37.880 --> 01:27:42.439
you told me you don't watch TV, because I remembered

1066
01:27:42.439 --> 01:27:46.520
what they'd said previously. When people contradict themselves. I tend

1067
01:27:46.560 --> 01:27:51.760
to remember what they said previously. And she said, oh no,

1068
01:27:52.119 --> 01:27:57.920
I stream I said, it's still watching Telly, just because

1069
01:27:57.960 --> 01:28:01.319
you don't own a television, So she didn't own a television,

1070
01:28:01.319 --> 01:28:03.039
which I assumed she didn't watch TV.

1071
01:28:04.319 --> 01:28:04.520
Or there.

1072
01:28:04.520 --> 01:28:06.760
There's been times when I've not owned a TV, and

1073
01:28:06.800 --> 01:28:11.800
I do still watch TV online on my laptop or

1074
01:28:11.800 --> 01:28:18.760
at least watch programs, you know, streaming. So they will check.

1075
01:28:20.439 --> 01:28:23.439
They can check, and they will knock and they will harass,

1076
01:28:24.520 --> 01:28:28.800
and they also they've got these vans that apparently can tell,

1077
01:28:28.880 --> 01:28:31.680
but I don't know if they can or not. And

1078
01:28:31.840 --> 01:28:37.239
I don't know if it's just there might just be

1079
01:28:37.439 --> 01:28:40.760
like a little sausage roll maker inside there a little

1080
01:28:40.760 --> 01:28:42.880
bed they sleep in. I don't know if there's actually

1081
01:28:42.880 --> 01:28:46.640
anything's working. But yeah, they've definitely got the law on

1082
01:28:46.680 --> 01:28:50.279
their side for some reason. Do they have the right

1083
01:28:50.359 --> 01:28:54.039
to just enter a house and look at your technology devices?

1084
01:28:54.960 --> 01:29:00.720
According to them, they do, but I think it can

1085
01:29:00.800 --> 01:29:02.640
get to the point where they can call the police

1086
01:29:04.039 --> 01:29:10.680
in order to gain access, and which is just ridiculous.

1087
01:29:11.079 --> 01:29:17.560
It's really can you imagine wasting the police time because

1088
01:29:17.600 --> 01:29:23.920
you want to see if someone owns a television's phenomenally

1089
01:29:24.000 --> 01:29:29.680
bad bad, and they do check if they do get

1090
01:29:29.720 --> 01:29:31.760
into your house, they do look around and try and

1091
01:29:31.840 --> 01:29:35.560
check all the technology devices. So if you've got a laptop,

1092
01:29:35.640 --> 01:29:40.079
Dellas Zoom, if you've got broadband, you've got internet, if

1093
01:29:40.079 --> 01:29:44.479
you've got a phone with internet, then you can watch television.

1094
01:29:45.359 --> 01:29:47.760
If you've got access, If you're able to watch television,

1095
01:29:47.840 --> 01:29:50.720
then they think you should be paying a TV license.

1096
01:29:50.920 --> 01:29:59.119
That's their mentality. Everybody with a smartphone can gain access

1097
01:29:59.319 --> 01:30:02.840
to streaming television in the UK anywhere. I don't know

1098
01:30:02.840 --> 01:30:05.760
what it's like in America or in Australia or Canada

1099
01:30:05.880 --> 01:30:12.680
or anywhere else, but in the UK, any phone, you know,

1100
01:30:12.960 --> 01:30:19.000
a decent phone which has internet access, which would be

1101
01:30:19.039 --> 01:30:25.800
every phone that's in the world can stream TV. So

1102
01:30:25.880 --> 01:30:33.159
it's very difficult to really get out of it. And yeah,

1103
01:30:33.279 --> 01:30:34.920
I'm not not a big fan of the whole thing,

1104
01:30:34.960 --> 01:30:39.119
but you know what, sometimes what's an old old saying,

1105
01:30:39.239 --> 01:30:43.399
pick your battles, and I can't be bothered with this,

1106
01:30:43.800 --> 01:30:47.880
you know. I know people that have stood up for

1107
01:30:47.960 --> 01:30:53.760
themselves and ended up with a big fine COREK costs

1108
01:30:53.800 --> 01:30:56.479
and you know, just like it's not worth it for

1109
01:30:56.520 --> 01:31:00.960
the sake of fifteen pound a month. No, so yeah,

1110
01:31:00.960 --> 01:31:04.279
they kind of got us by the the Curly Worldies

1111
01:31:04.359 --> 01:31:09.880
as it were. I mean, I just I don't know

1112
01:31:10.600 --> 01:31:14.399
for personally. I think the BBC it would make sense

1113
01:31:14.399 --> 01:31:17.880
for the BBC to either just start having adverts or

1114
01:31:19.439 --> 01:31:22.479
have it as an app, you know, where people can

1115
01:31:22.640 --> 01:31:26.960
just subscribe, subscribe to all the different channels on the

1116
01:31:27.000 --> 01:31:30.960
BBC for a monthly price, which would be the cost

1117
01:31:31.000 --> 01:31:35.680
of a TV license. The problem with that is they

1118
01:31:35.680 --> 01:31:45.239
would probably I imagine, lose ninety percent of their customers. Ninety

1119
01:31:45.279 --> 01:31:49.119
percent of the revenue would probably be gone because people

1120
01:31:49.119 --> 01:31:57.119
wouldn't wouldn't want to pay you know. If they didn't,

1121
01:31:57.159 --> 01:31:59.119
they didn't if they didn't have to pay it, they wouldn't.

1122
01:31:59.399 --> 01:32:04.960
They probably find another way to watch it. So how

1123
01:32:05.000 --> 01:32:08.399
do you feel about bugs? Says Allie. Are you a

1124
01:32:08.479 --> 01:32:11.760
kill of spiders? I know, I know technically and they

1125
01:32:11.840 --> 01:32:14.560
record you needed, I think, Or do you catch them

1126
01:32:14.560 --> 01:32:15.439
and bring them outside?

1127
01:32:16.960 --> 01:32:17.000
No?

1128
01:32:17.279 --> 01:32:20.720
I don't kill bugs. I'm not bothered our bugs. Really

1129
01:32:21.720 --> 01:32:25.039
flies annoy me because I keep trying to land on

1130
01:32:25.079 --> 01:32:29.560
my food. And I said to him, like, why you

1131
01:32:29.640 --> 01:32:32.760
keep landing on my breakfast? And a fly said, I'm

1132
01:32:32.760 --> 01:32:34.560
trying to get the taste of that dog poo out

1133
01:32:34.560 --> 01:32:40.000
of my mouth. It's like rude. I was like, why

1134
01:32:41.640 --> 01:32:45.000
they annoy me? Flies annoy me, not enough to sort

1135
01:32:45.000 --> 01:32:48.680
of get too angry, just just annoy a bit. Spiders

1136
01:32:48.680 --> 01:32:51.279
I don't care about. I wouldn't even put it outside.

1137
01:32:51.319 --> 01:32:53.159
Just leave it and leave it, let me do what

1138
01:32:53.159 --> 01:33:06.279
it wants. I don't care. And Horrce just popped up

1139
01:33:06.319 --> 01:33:10.239
onto the window sill and then he's gone talking about

1140
01:33:10.560 --> 01:33:20.199
creepy caoris and bugs. Horister pigeon. Yeah, I think spiders,

1141
01:33:20.239 --> 01:33:22.600
I'm not bothered. I don't care about them. I think

1142
01:33:22.680 --> 01:33:24.920
the only the only bug, if you want to call

1143
01:33:24.920 --> 01:33:29.079
it a bug, would be like a wasp or a

1144
01:33:31.880 --> 01:33:36.079
be a hornet, that kind of thing. I would definitely

1145
01:33:36.119 --> 01:33:39.000
try to well. I would always try and guide them

1146
01:33:39.119 --> 01:33:44.279
out of the window. I would put the effort in

1147
01:33:44.399 --> 01:33:48.039
to get them out of the window because this isn't

1148
01:33:48.039 --> 01:33:52.920
the right place for those animals to be. They you know,

1149
01:33:52.960 --> 01:33:57.319
they need to be outside. None of them want to

1150
01:33:57.359 --> 01:34:02.119
be inside, really, I don't think. So I try and

1151
01:34:02.119 --> 01:34:06.039
get them out and without doing any harm. You know,

1152
01:34:10.199 --> 01:34:12.439
in the past, if it was a spider, i'd probably

1153
01:34:12.439 --> 01:34:15.640
would try and get it outside, but I don't care anymore.

1154
01:34:16.199 --> 01:34:18.359
Just doesn't bother p Spiders don't bother me at all.

1155
01:34:19.600 --> 01:34:22.760
I don't bother them. They don't bother me. But luckily

1156
01:34:23.039 --> 01:34:24.800
I'm in a country where we haven't got a way

1157
01:34:24.800 --> 01:34:38.359
about stuff like that. Yees. For me, it just I

1158
01:34:38.359 --> 01:34:41.159
think flies with anyone's that annoyed me. And when I

1159
01:34:41.239 --> 01:34:46.119
hear a wasp's like because I know wasps don't bother

1160
01:34:46.199 --> 01:34:49.159
me if I don't bother them, but trying to get

1161
01:34:49.199 --> 01:34:50.720
them out of the window can be a little bit

1162
01:34:50.760 --> 01:34:54.239
bothersome to them. I don't. I don't want to push them,

1163
01:34:54.279 --> 01:34:59.720
you know, too far. Hope asks me, do you like

1164
01:34:59.760 --> 01:35:05.640
any sports other than boxing? If so, what, no, Sandy

1165
01:35:05.760 --> 01:35:14.760
asks no, genuinely, not really. I don't mind a bit

1166
01:35:14.800 --> 01:35:19.560
of mixed martial arts in UFC and stuff that can

1167
01:35:19.600 --> 01:35:25.640
be amazing. I'm the skill. I never really appreciated the

1168
01:35:25.720 --> 01:35:31.840
skill until more recently, and it's phenomenally skillful. I just

1169
01:35:31.920 --> 01:35:34.880
don't find it when they're on the floor. That's when

1170
01:35:34.880 --> 01:35:38.600
it's the real skill is. But I don't find it

1171
01:35:38.640 --> 01:35:45.039
exciting to watch. It's interesting to watch, but it's not

1172
01:35:45.119 --> 01:35:49.199
exciting in the same way as punching is for me.

1173
01:35:50.560 --> 01:35:53.840
But I can see, like if someone can do something

1174
01:35:53.840 --> 01:35:57.079
that I can't do most people, to be fair, so

1175
01:35:57.479 --> 01:36:01.239
I'm impressed to see the highest legs and with the

1176
01:36:01.359 --> 01:36:05.439
USC that's what you see, just like with the professional boxers.

1177
01:36:06.039 --> 01:36:10.439
He's seeing the boxers at the highest level. And I

1178
01:36:10.439 --> 01:36:13.279
can't even talk about other other sports that I might

1179
01:36:13.439 --> 01:36:16.840
like having in boxing without talking about boxing. It's terrible.

1180
01:36:18.960 --> 01:36:22.640
I used to I used to like tennis and snooker

1181
01:36:22.720 --> 01:36:25.680
when I was a kid, but that's and darts even

1182
01:36:25.720 --> 01:36:29.439
because we were grew up watching that stuff. You know,

1183
01:36:29.720 --> 01:36:34.920
snooker was huge in this country in the early eighties.

1184
01:36:36.840 --> 01:36:42.279
Darts was huge, Honestly, it's a big, really really popular sports.

1185
01:36:43.279 --> 01:36:53.119
Eric Bristow and tennis, Mecenroe, Connor Beyond brought Beyond Beyond

1186
01:36:53.319 --> 01:36:59.239
borg what his name was, and all these and then

1187
01:36:59.279 --> 01:37:02.680
Agacy in the early nineties or late eighties, early nineties,

1188
01:37:02.720 --> 01:37:08.479
and you know, tennis was huge in this country during

1189
01:37:08.520 --> 01:37:14.760
the old McEnroe era, partly because of McEnroe, to be fair,

1190
01:37:14.880 --> 01:37:22.239
he just he really a bit like Alex Higgins with snooker.

1191
01:37:23.439 --> 01:37:29.880
He made it into Hurricane Higgins they called him.

1192
01:37:29.880 --> 01:37:30.359
But he was.

1193
01:37:31.399 --> 01:37:35.920
It was a maverick and so yeah, I don't know,

1194
01:37:36.680 --> 01:37:38.800
so I quite. I used to watch football as well

1195
01:37:38.840 --> 01:37:42.840
because my oldest brother loved football and I wanted to

1196
01:37:42.840 --> 01:37:46.960
be like him a bit. So I used to watch football.

1197
01:37:47.560 --> 01:37:51.920
And at that time we lived near a town called Ipswich,

1198
01:37:52.239 --> 01:37:55.399
which was head of the league. They won it FA

1199
01:37:55.479 --> 01:37:59.920
Cup and the Europa Cup or whatever. They were the top.

1200
01:38:01.680 --> 01:38:02.039
League.

1201
01:38:02.079 --> 01:38:06.840
They were the top team in the country, and so

1202
01:38:08.640 --> 01:38:11.239
it was hard not to kind of been to get

1203
01:38:12.479 --> 01:38:16.600
blown away with that wave of excitement when our local

1204
01:38:16.760 --> 01:38:21.000
team was the best team in the entire country and

1205
01:38:21.039 --> 01:38:24.039
one of the best teams in the world like Europe,

1206
01:38:24.159 --> 01:38:29.560
you know, like football teams. So I'll tell you when

1207
01:38:29.560 --> 01:38:39.239
that was. Nineteen seventy eight two So Ipswich Town Football

1208
01:38:39.279 --> 01:38:44.880
Club FC, Ipswich Town FC. So let's have a look

1209
01:38:47.760 --> 01:38:51.520
the nineteen seventy eight FA Cup Finals Association for the

1210
01:38:51.640 --> 01:38:55.239
match between Arsenal and its Switched Town six and May

1211
01:38:55.479 --> 01:39:01.800
nineteen seventy eight at old Wembley Stadium. And so if

1212
01:39:01.840 --> 01:39:06.039
I just go to study, I want to just I

1213
01:39:06.119 --> 01:39:11.079
want to back this up with actual correct information rather

1214
01:39:11.119 --> 01:39:17.720
than just me making it up, because I do remember

1215
01:39:18.039 --> 01:39:28.159
them being really really really really big and it was

1216
01:39:28.239 --> 01:39:31.960
their biggest time and it was during the Bobby Robson

1217
01:39:32.000 --> 01:39:35.680
era as well, so Bobby Robson who was a legend

1218
01:39:36.439 --> 01:39:46.920
as a manager, and so so Bobby Rogers during the

1219
01:39:47.000 --> 01:39:53.439
Bobby Robson era. At their peak in the nineteen seventy

1220
01:39:53.560 --> 01:40:03.600
nine nineteen eighty season, they beat Manchester United. Their major

1221
01:40:03.640 --> 01:40:07.000
success came nineteen seventy eight when Ipswich b Arsenal at

1222
01:40:07.000 --> 01:40:12.319
Wembley Stadium to win the only their only FA Cup trophy.

1223
01:40:13.039 --> 01:40:16.319
The triumph was followed or by almost winning the triple

1224
01:40:16.439 --> 01:40:24.800
in eighty eighty one, so they are really big, really

1225
01:40:24.840 --> 01:40:29.600
big back then, and it's which did win the UEFA

1226
01:40:29.720 --> 01:40:38.239
Cup in nineteen eighty one as well. It's hard, I

1227
01:40:38.239 --> 01:40:42.079
mean anyone that's been I suppose there's probably thousands of people,

1228
01:40:43.279 --> 01:40:49.880
anyone that's had their local football team be like at

1229
01:40:49.920 --> 01:40:53.079
the top. Even if it is just for a year,

1230
01:40:53.199 --> 01:40:56.279
a couple of years or whatever, it is something it

1231
01:40:56.359 --> 01:41:00.159
has an effect on the local area, it really does.

1232
01:41:01.159 --> 01:41:05.159
Like really, I've only experienced it once and that was,

1233
01:41:05.880 --> 01:41:09.079
you know, when I lived near Ipswich and when I

1234
01:41:09.119 --> 01:41:13.439
was a kid, So between seventy eight and eighty two

1235
01:41:14.800 --> 01:41:19.680
Ipswich for big players and to win the FA Cup

1236
01:41:20.600 --> 01:41:23.039
is like at the time it was like the highest

1237
01:41:23.079 --> 01:41:28.479
prize really and there's a lot more different cups now.

1238
01:41:28.600 --> 01:41:31.199
That's for me. FA Cup was a much bigger deal

1239
01:41:32.039 --> 01:41:35.039
than it is even now. I'm saying that like I

1240
01:41:35.079 --> 01:41:39.640
know something about football. And also what's really big back

1241
01:41:39.680 --> 01:41:44.600
then was sabutio, which is I don't if you've ever

1242
01:41:44.600 --> 01:41:48.720
heard of it. It's basically, you put this green cloth

1243
01:41:48.760 --> 01:41:51.319
onto a table. You can play it on the floor

1244
01:41:51.319 --> 01:41:52.800
as well, but it needs to be a flat floor.

1245
01:41:53.760 --> 01:41:56.840
I mean, I don't know how many floors are bumpy

1246
01:41:57.680 --> 01:42:00.640
and lopsided, but you buy flat, I mean because you're

1247
01:42:00.840 --> 01:42:05.439
you're basically got these things that they're like little weebles,

1248
01:42:05.920 --> 01:42:08.920
you know, weebles robble but they don't fall down, but

1249
01:42:09.039 --> 01:42:13.159
you push them and they then they hit the ball

1250
01:42:13.239 --> 01:42:19.119
and the ball pushes and yeah, I don't know. It

1251
01:42:19.239 --> 01:42:21.479
made sense to me when I said it, but a

1252
01:42:21.560 --> 01:42:30.560
very popular game, so no, I don't really it's boxing

1253
01:42:30.640 --> 01:42:40.560
is the only sport I follow, even things like martial arts,

1254
01:42:41.520 --> 01:42:50.000
the taekwondo of the Olympics, judo, I think some of

1255
01:42:50.039 --> 01:42:57.039
that stuff. Judo, for example, is when you realize what's

1256
01:42:57.199 --> 01:43:02.439
being done. I think, okay, I'm going to talk talk

1257
01:43:02.520 --> 01:43:07.000
for myself with judo because my dad was a judo man.

1258
01:43:07.039 --> 01:43:10.399
When he was at school, he got to got brown

1259
01:43:10.439 --> 01:43:14.760
belt in judo, and so that was his thing and

1260
01:43:14.840 --> 01:43:15.319
he kept.

1261
01:43:15.239 --> 01:43:15.640
It with him.

1262
01:43:15.680 --> 01:43:18.800
He's like always, yeah, it was good balance and all

1263
01:43:18.840 --> 01:43:22.159
that stuff. But I didn't watching it. I didn't see

1264
01:43:23.520 --> 01:43:26.680
I couldn't see any kind of excitement, any kind of

1265
01:43:27.199 --> 01:43:30.319
point to watching it. I could see the point of

1266
01:43:30.439 --> 01:43:35.880
doing it. But once you learn a little bit about

1267
01:43:35.920 --> 01:43:41.000
what they're doing, you realize that it's phenomenal what they're

1268
01:43:41.000 --> 01:43:46.760
doing actually, And when you put two really really good people,

1269
01:43:48.560 --> 01:43:52.399
it's it's like a chess game. It's almost you know,

1270
01:43:52.439 --> 01:43:55.000
if you put one one really good person against someone

1271
01:43:55.000 --> 01:43:59.680
that's average, then that really good person is going to

1272
01:43:59.760 --> 01:44:04.079
check that average person all around, and it's going to

1273
01:44:04.119 --> 01:44:06.960
look spectacular. It's going to you know, it's going to

1274
01:44:07.039 --> 01:44:10.880
look just amazing. But you put two really good people

1275
01:44:10.920 --> 01:44:15.199
together and no one's going to get chucked around. Necessarily.

1276
01:44:15.680 --> 01:44:19.560
They're going to try and chuck each other around. And

1277
01:44:19.640 --> 01:44:23.319
it's the same with the USC or with the jiu jitsu.

1278
01:44:24.760 --> 01:44:27.159
They'll try and get each other choke each other out.

1279
01:44:27.760 --> 01:44:30.920
But it's much easier for you know, if I got

1280
01:44:30.920 --> 01:44:36.600
into a jiu jitsu someone that's I even doing it

1281
01:44:36.600 --> 01:44:41.199
a little while would get me into a choke in seconds.

1282
01:44:43.359 --> 01:44:50.560
But two really good people they can't. It's not that easy.

1283
01:44:51.119 --> 01:44:52.800
Not that it's that it will be easy for them,

1284
01:44:53.000 --> 01:44:59.760
but I'd say it's it's which in a way, as

1285
01:44:59.800 --> 01:45:08.039
a as an observer, as an audience, it I think

1286
01:45:08.079 --> 01:45:16.319
unless really into the sport, the skill doesn't necessarily impress

1287
01:45:18.199 --> 01:45:22.119
because not based on speed. But with you know, with races,

1288
01:45:22.399 --> 01:45:25.920
the one who wins first, when it gets their first wins.

1289
01:45:26.720 --> 01:45:29.520
It's a much easier thing to watch, isn't it a

1290
01:45:29.600 --> 01:45:36.479
running race, a swimming raceer wharing rowing, sorry rowing race,

1291
01:45:38.159 --> 01:45:43.560
hoeing hoeing rowing, horse race or whatever. You know, when

1292
01:45:43.680 --> 01:45:48.199
people are racing and it makes sense like okay, the

1293
01:45:48.279 --> 01:45:53.560
winner wins. But when it comes to like combat sports

1294
01:45:53.880 --> 01:45:57.039
is just so much more. I mean boxing used to

1295
01:45:57.119 --> 01:46:01.199
be I preferred the boxing in the olymps. How it

1296
01:46:01.359 --> 01:46:04.159
used to be when they used to have a scoring system.

1297
01:46:04.319 --> 01:46:08.880
When a beat like would actually every time a glove

1298
01:46:09.000 --> 01:46:13.880
touched the head guard or the body, it would trigger

1299
01:46:13.960 --> 01:46:18.720
off a point. So that was good because then you

1300
01:46:18.800 --> 01:46:22.000
could see how many points each boxer needed to win,

1301
01:46:22.199 --> 01:46:23.960
and if he was on one person's side, you so,

1302
01:46:24.039 --> 01:46:27.520
I get more, get more. Now they don't do that anymore.

1303
01:46:27.840 --> 01:46:30.680
If I don't even have head gear anymore, I don't

1304
01:46:30.720 --> 01:46:36.520
think you in the amateur Do they have head gear

1305
01:46:36.640 --> 01:46:39.800
in the Olympics, I don't know if they do anymore.

1306
01:46:41.399 --> 01:46:48.159
They might do, so I think with because I'm a

1307
01:46:48.319 --> 01:46:53.000
very I'm a non fan when I watch any other sport.

1308
01:46:53.720 --> 01:46:58.520
So I do watch something, I'm looking for excitement in

1309
01:46:58.640 --> 01:47:01.279
the same way as if someone not really into boxing,

1310
01:47:03.399 --> 01:47:05.640
they might watch the same five as me and think

1311
01:47:05.800 --> 01:47:09.720
what a pile of rubbish, And I might think that

1312
01:47:09.920 --> 01:47:13.800
was an amazing fight. It might not be exciting in

1313
01:47:13.920 --> 01:47:18.000
the sense of lots of action, but the skill involved,

1314
01:47:19.640 --> 01:47:23.359
you know, it might might be phenomenal. The kind of

1315
01:47:23.439 --> 01:47:29.239
skill you'd get with Mayweather, or the kind of skill

1316
01:47:29.319 --> 01:47:37.720
you get with Tyson Fury or with Usik. There's different

1317
01:47:37.800 --> 01:47:46.239
types of skill levels, or with Lumachenko the nomenal skills.

1318
01:47:49.479 --> 01:47:53.720
So it's not always exciting to watch, but you know,

1319
01:47:53.880 --> 01:47:57.279
I think there's a reason why only one person ever

1320
01:47:57.439 --> 01:48:06.960
beat Tyson Fury. And there was Usik. Because Usik is phenomenal.

1321
01:48:08.720 --> 01:48:12.119
He is now poundful pound the top out of everyone

1322
01:48:12.359 --> 01:48:17.760
at the moment. But is this something he's like, Wow,

1323
01:48:18.239 --> 01:48:22.800
he's got Yeah. Anyway, I won't bore you about to

1324
01:48:22.800 --> 01:48:27.800
talking about boxing. But no, I'm not really interested in

1325
01:48:28.239 --> 01:48:31.119
other sports. Boxing is the only one I really like.

1326
01:48:33.359 --> 01:48:41.399
And I'm trying to think of any others. No, not really.

1327
01:48:43.840 --> 01:48:46.560
Sandy asks, I would like to know if you have

1328
01:48:47.399 --> 01:48:51.720
taught Finny any tricks. And also thank you for being

1329
01:48:51.800 --> 01:48:54.039
with me for the last six years. I love fullness

1330
01:48:54.119 --> 01:48:56.520
leap to your stories. Well, thank you, Sandy, thank you

1331
01:48:56.680 --> 01:48:59.359
for inviting me to be with you for the last

1332
01:48:59.359 --> 01:49:06.479
six years. I'm happy to help Vinnie. He's taught me

1333
01:49:06.560 --> 01:49:11.720
a few tricks. Vinnie will not do a single thing

1334
01:49:12.000 --> 01:49:15.800
I ask him to do. Do you know the whole

1335
01:49:15.880 --> 01:49:21.800
time I've had him, which is two years and two

1336
01:49:22.000 --> 01:49:25.880
years and five months six months, nearly two years and

1337
01:49:26.119 --> 01:49:30.600
six months I've had him, he won't come into the

1338
01:49:30.680 --> 01:49:35.680
kitchen unless he wants to. And if I say to him,

1339
01:49:35.920 --> 01:49:40.880
something's making a weird noise over there. If I say

1340
01:49:40.960 --> 01:49:44.239
to him, do you want to come come in the kitchen,

1341
01:49:44.960 --> 01:49:49.880
he just stands at the door and stares at me. Right,

1342
01:49:52.279 --> 01:49:55.600
I've now realized, and this is a new thing. If

1343
01:49:55.640 --> 01:49:57.880
I say to him, stay there, he runs into the kitchen.

1344
01:50:02.239 --> 01:50:04.600
He won't do what I tell him. It does exactly

1345
01:50:04.720 --> 01:50:07.359
the opposite. So I realized he wouldn't do what I

1346
01:50:07.399 --> 01:50:10.800
told him. I realized that. But he will do the opposite.

1347
01:50:10.800 --> 01:50:15.039
So if I don't want him to do something, I

1348
01:50:15.239 --> 01:50:17.239
just tell him to do the thing I don't want

1349
01:50:17.319 --> 01:50:20.479
him to do, and he does the thing that I

1350
01:50:20.560 --> 01:50:25.399
do want him to do. No, no, I tell him

1351
01:50:25.439 --> 01:50:27.720
to tell him to do the thing that I do

1352
01:50:27.840 --> 01:50:29.920
want him to do, but I tell him not to

1353
01:50:30.000 --> 01:50:35.000
do the thing that Oh I knew what I mean.

1354
01:50:35.119 --> 01:50:39.159
You know what I mean. So if it's reverse psychology

1355
01:50:39.279 --> 01:50:43.800
or whatever, but he will not. If I say sit,

1356
01:50:43.960 --> 01:50:48.399
he stands, I say stand, he sits. He You know,

1357
01:50:49.520 --> 01:50:51.840
he won't do a single thing I tell him or

1358
01:50:51.920 --> 01:50:58.880
ask him. The only thing he's ever done consistently is

1359
01:50:59.399 --> 01:51:04.199
when I'm out. And only command he ever listens to

1360
01:51:05.760 --> 01:51:10.920
is when I shout to him. THENNY ignore me and

1361
01:51:10.960 --> 01:51:15.760
he does the only thing he actually listens to. So

1362
01:51:17.600 --> 01:51:22.960
he won't do anything, no tricks, nothing, He's just completely

1363
01:51:26.600 --> 01:51:29.319
is all about him. He does whatever he wants, whenever

1364
01:51:29.399 --> 01:51:35.520
he wants, even in bed. Right if I accidentally touch him,

1365
01:51:36.039 --> 01:51:41.319
my hand moves over or my leg moves, he growls

1366
01:51:41.399 --> 01:51:54.399
at me. It's my bed, he growls at me. He's very, very,

1367
01:51:56.600 --> 01:52:09.279
a little bit temperamental. Ah, I think that's all the questions.

1368
01:52:09.520 --> 01:52:11.840
I've got no idea how long I've been doing this for,

1369
01:52:12.600 --> 01:52:19.119
but it's now tend to four, so I've been doing

1370
01:52:19.119 --> 01:52:24.680
it over an hour. There's warm in it. That's because

1371
01:52:24.720 --> 01:52:27.079
I opened I closed the window. Isn't it because of

1372
01:52:27.159 --> 01:52:33.399
that man doing washing, cleaning the windows or whatever? So

1373
01:52:34.399 --> 01:52:37.119
thank you for listening, and remember to be kind to

1374
01:52:37.199 --> 01:52:41.520
yourself because you do deserve to be happy. Lots of love.

1375
01:52:42.880 --> 01:52:43.119
Bye.

1376
01:52:48.680 --> 01:53:03.199
Relax in a more deep and meaningful way, maybe in

1377
01:53:03.319 --> 01:53:08.800
a way that can not just allow you to feel

1378
01:53:10.239 --> 01:53:19.319
calmer now and throughout the time we spend together here,

1379
01:53:21.479 --> 01:53:27.159
not just relaxed at the end of the recording when

1380
01:53:27.199 --> 01:53:33.840
it's finished and you can enjoy that sense of comfort

1381
01:53:34.039 --> 01:53:48.920
and peace, but also I think it would be nice

1382
01:53:49.079 --> 01:54:08.800
to have those feelings of relaxation continue for longer after

1383
01:54:08.960 --> 01:54:19.479
the recording has ended, so that you can still benefit

1384
01:54:22.399 --> 01:54:29.640
from listening to my voice maybe in a few hours time,

1385
01:54:31.560 --> 01:54:45.000
perhaps tomorrow, and then by listening regularly, especially if you

1386
01:54:45.239 --> 01:54:50.439
find like some people do and myself as well, sometimes

1387
01:54:50.479 --> 01:54:56.760
I find one particular recording that really resonates with me,

1388
01:55:01.159 --> 01:55:03.479
and I just listened to it over and over again

1389
01:55:05.800 --> 01:55:18.800
every morning, every evening. There was this recording from We're

1390
01:55:18.840 --> 01:55:24.560
going back to about nineteen ninety nine. It wasn't hypnosis,

1391
01:55:24.640 --> 01:55:29.920
but it was a guided visualizations. It kind of was hypnosis, really,

1392
01:55:32.439 --> 01:55:37.600
and I managed to find it again and it still

1393
01:55:37.720 --> 01:55:43.119
has the same effect on me. And part of it

1394
01:55:43.479 --> 01:55:58.159
was the person's voice relaxed me, just felt so peaceful,

1395
01:56:00.319 --> 01:56:06.760
and I'd look forward to listening to her in the

1396
01:56:06.880 --> 01:56:17.560
morning and in the evening. And I knew before even

1397
01:56:18.319 --> 01:56:25.399
pressing the play button. As soon as I've done that,

1398
01:56:26.479 --> 01:56:29.880
pressed the play button. This was in the days of

1399
01:56:35.039 --> 01:56:44.159
CD players press the play button. In fact, it might

1400
01:56:44.199 --> 01:56:48.479
have even been a tape tape recorder. I'd lie down

1401
01:56:48.560 --> 01:57:01.159
on the bed and then even without necessarily listening to

1402
01:57:01.359 --> 01:57:14.479
her words because I had them memorized. Really, it was

1403
01:57:14.520 --> 01:57:25.079
as if my body knew exactly what to do, and

1404
01:57:25.319 --> 01:57:47.039
the muscles just almost went into automatic relaxation. And I

1405
01:57:47.159 --> 01:58:01.720
remember my mind would slow down. Now, I was listening

1406
01:58:01.800 --> 01:58:08.399
to this recording in the early days of learning hypnosis,

1407
01:58:11.119 --> 01:58:18.840
and long before I ever made any videos or audio

1408
01:58:19.000 --> 01:58:23.560
recordings myself, because I didn't start doing that till two

1409
01:58:23.800 --> 01:58:39.800
thousand and six. But I knew, I knew how helpful

1410
01:58:41.680 --> 01:58:53.199
I found being able to just let go, to have

1411
01:58:53.439 --> 01:59:06.279
that trust in the person that I'm listening to, knowing

1412
01:59:06.399 --> 01:59:14.239
that it's going to be just as relaxing, if not

1413
01:59:14.479 --> 01:59:23.760
more so. Each time you hear my voice, you may

1414
01:59:23.840 --> 01:59:35.399
feel the same. Some people have been listening to me

1415
01:59:35.680 --> 01:59:49.560
for over a decade, maybe not solidly, obviously not twenty

1416
01:59:49.600 --> 01:59:57.479
four hours a day, but maybe people come back. Some

1417
01:59:57.640 --> 02:00:11.239
people may be listen every day. That's something that I

1418
02:00:12.520 --> 02:00:28.520
do which you may not realize by listening, is when

1419
02:00:28.840 --> 02:00:44.279
I record these recordings. Now, for example, I also am

1420
02:00:44.600 --> 02:00:55.439
affected by the words that I say. So if I

1421
02:00:58.399 --> 02:01:05.760
said to you, focus on your feet, notice your feet relaxing,

1422
02:01:09.239 --> 02:01:16.960
I will be focusing on my feet. I will be

1423
02:01:17.279 --> 02:01:35.319
noticing my feet relaxing. If I said, focus on your hands,

1424
02:01:38.119 --> 02:01:47.640
and maybe notice the difference between each hand, Perhaps notice

1425
02:01:47.760 --> 02:01:53.840
the air in the room, the temperature of the room,

1426
02:01:55.720 --> 02:02:06.079
on the backs of your hands, you may start to

1427
02:02:06.680 --> 02:02:14.720
notice what almost feels like a very light breeze, even

1428
02:02:14.800 --> 02:02:19.000
though there may not be any type of breeze at

1429
02:02:19.079 --> 02:02:32.000
all where you are right now. And as you become

1430
02:02:32.720 --> 02:02:47.079
aware of your hands, I'm also aware of how relaxed

1431
02:02:47.399 --> 02:03:11.119
my hands are feeling now, and when it comes to

1432
02:03:12.720 --> 02:03:18.680
potentially drifting off to sleep, which may be the reason

1433
02:03:19.039 --> 02:03:35.239
you're listening, I also feel drowsy when I make these recordings.

1434
02:03:40.000 --> 02:03:56.399
I also notice my mind drifting. In fact, at times

1435
02:03:58.479 --> 02:04:12.520
I've actually fallen sick sleep without even noticing, and then

1436
02:04:12.560 --> 02:04:23.720
I carry on talking. And it's only when I listen

1437
02:04:23.880 --> 02:04:33.239
back to do the editing I hear snoring and I think,

1438
02:04:33.720 --> 02:04:43.520
I don't remember snoring. I remember talking. Is it snoring?

1439
02:04:43.840 --> 02:04:50.520
Was a pick turned up? That's why I sound like

1440
02:04:50.640 --> 02:05:01.680
when I snore, I get real day into the whole experience.

1441
02:05:09.680 --> 02:05:19.119
I don't know how you feel, how relaxed you feel

1442
02:05:19.159 --> 02:05:29.720
in your feet, how relaxed you feel in your hands.

1443
02:05:44.840 --> 02:05:57.039
I have noticed more and more that the more relaxed,

1444
02:05:58.800 --> 02:06:14.600
deeper level of comfort you feel, the easier your breathing becomes.

1445
02:06:21.159 --> 02:06:37.800
It's almost like that additional muscle relaxation. So this allows

1446
02:06:37.880 --> 02:07:08.960
you to breathe easier without necessarily focusing on your breath, however,

1447
02:07:09.239 --> 02:07:37.960
being able to notice the ease in which you breathe

1448
02:07:38.199 --> 02:08:28.000
so naturally, you breathe so very easily and smooth. Whenever

1449
02:08:28.159 --> 02:08:46.479
I imagine my breathing improving, when I've got my eyes closed,

1450
02:08:52.479 --> 02:09:06.239
I tend to visualize beautiful field with trees and flowers

1451
02:09:13.079 --> 02:09:46.079
producing all that life giving oxygen. It feels nice too,

1452
02:09:47.680 --> 02:10:06.600
if nothing else, just taking some time away from everything,

1453
02:10:17.920 --> 02:10:50.439
enjoying that feeling of peace, serenity with a joyful heart.

1454
02:11:15.840 --> 02:11:41.319
Time seems to just drip by, so very slowly, relaxed,

1455
02:11:47.239 --> 02:12:26.359
so deeply, peaceful, completely unattached to any thoughts whatsoever in

1456
02:12:26.520 --> 02:13:30.880
this moment, completely free, noticing that your mind has slowed down.

1457
02:13:39.199 --> 02:14:25.880
Slowed down because nothing really requires your attention, you can

1458
02:14:26.159 --> 02:14:42.279
enjoy the physical sensations of allowing the stress to drip

1459
02:14:43.039 --> 02:14:56.479
out of your body, to appear out of every part

1460
02:15:02.800 --> 02:15:27.199
of your body, and being released from your brain, longe

1461
02:15:27.399 --> 02:16:02.199
your mind slowly but surely, the muscles in your.

1462
02:16:02.199 --> 02:16:48.799
Legs relax res res so very deeply, reas.

1463
02:16:53.360 --> 02:17:18.760
So deeply, and the feelings, the pleasant feelings in your

1464
02:17:19.079 --> 02:17:46.840
arms and shoulders deepening each part of your body further

1465
02:17:51.799 --> 02:18:00.000
and deeper, hm.

1466
02:18:03.879 --> 02:18:05.079
And deeper.

1467
02:18:19.319 --> 02:18:49.000
Noticine, the feelings in the back of your neck, the

1468
02:18:49.200 --> 02:19:28.319
feelings in your wrists, muscles, in front of your body,

1469
02:19:38.760 --> 02:20:22.200
I will say, feeling peaceful, deep, there's a sense of

1470
02:20:22.479 --> 02:21:06.920
peace spreads through your very cool even when you focus

1471
02:21:07.159 --> 02:21:50.399

Notice, Notice how relaxed.

1475

You never feel.

1476
02:24:04.440 --> 02:24:36.719
In the hole of your back. In a spy from

1477
02:24:36.799 --> 02:24:41.799
your brain, all the way down the middle of your back,

1478
02:24:45.079 --> 02:25:05.479

Leading to.

1491
02:35:23.440 --> 02:35:48.120
Letting go. Maybe we can just focus on the different

1492
02:35:48.479 --> 02:36:23.280
parts of your body, just to notice you forelhead and

1493
02:36:23.559 --> 02:37:30.000

Or may not have noticed your mind drifted, peaceful move

1498
02:41:48.760 --> 02:42:09.239

1501
02:45:53.000 --> 02:46:19.879
A body feels almost invisible, so very relaxed. I'd peaceful,

1502
02:46:26.200 --> 02:47:35.520
so pace rel like God. And you could start to

1503
02:47:35.799 --> 02:47:45.319
notice that you are feeling more relaxed, even though I've

1504
02:47:45.680 --> 02:47:57.360
not purposely focused your mind upon that sense of physical

1505
02:47:57.639 --> 02:48:05.440
comfort that is growing within you throughout your body, and

1506
02:48:05.600 --> 02:48:15.159
your mind starts to slow down, And that could be

1507
02:48:15.920 --> 02:48:23.879
almost in recognition of I guess my speech not being

1508
02:48:24.120 --> 02:48:41.239
particularly fast, and things just generally feel calmer. Just by

1509
02:48:42.280 --> 02:48:51.399
listening to my voice, you give yourself an opportunity to

1510
02:48:51.520 --> 02:48:57.399
take a break from the day take a break from

1511
02:48:58.200 --> 02:49:05.440
your life it is, and to give yourself a rest,

1512
02:49:08.079 --> 02:49:15.360
giving yourself permission to take some time off, and to

1513
02:49:15.479 --> 02:49:21.399
allow your body to relax and allow your mind to

1514
02:49:21.559 --> 02:49:33.719
slow down, which in turn releases the tension any stresses

1515
02:49:33.920 --> 02:49:42.200
that you had in your body. It's almost as if

1516
02:49:43.760 --> 02:49:48.000
the parts of your body just open up, allowing the

1517
02:49:48.159 --> 02:50:00.840
negativity out and at the same time replacing that negativity

1518
02:50:01.079 --> 02:50:09.959
with positive healing energy, which then fills your body up

1519
02:50:11.360 --> 02:50:23.440
and your mind to also starts to appreciate those feelings

1520
02:50:23.639 --> 02:50:43.840
of increasing confidence, an almost uplifting feeling, positive healing, an

1521
02:50:44.079 --> 02:50:55.360
energy that spreads through your body like a wave of comfort.

1522
02:51:00.200 --> 02:51:10.440
And all this comes from just allowing yourself a few minutes,

1523
02:51:12.319 --> 02:51:15.319
maybe half an hour, however long you want it to be,

1524
02:51:17.200 --> 02:51:31.040
just rest and allow your mind and your body to

1525
02:51:31.159 --> 02:51:47.719
almost reset itself to the settings of comfort and relaxation, calmness,

1526
02:51:52.040 --> 02:52:01.399
which allows more room for feelings of pleasure and happiness

1527
02:52:05.440 --> 02:52:14.239
to move around your body and into your mind, almost

1528
02:52:15.040 --> 02:52:19.639
as if your mind and your body are sinking together,

1529
02:52:23.920 --> 02:52:33.600
almost mirroring each other with that growing positivity and calmness,

1530
02:52:38.680 --> 02:52:46.120
And it feels nice, really does feel nice to know

1531
02:52:46.399 --> 02:52:55.280
that you are the one that has allowed yourself to

1532
02:52:55.559 --> 02:53:04.559
feel more comfort and to experience.

1533
02:53:06.319 --> 02:53:07.479
More of this.

1534
02:53:09.239 --> 02:53:24.399
Deep relaxation. Spreading throughout your body, and as I focus

1535
02:53:26.000 --> 02:53:31.719
on each part of your body, you can notice that

1536
02:53:31.959 --> 02:53:46.479
that part becomes even more relaxed just by focusing on it,

1537
02:53:49.200 --> 02:54:02.760
becomes even more calm and comfortable, just by focusing. And

1538
02:54:03.000 --> 02:54:08.479
as I move down your body, starting at your head,

1539
02:54:11.200 --> 02:54:16.440
the parts that you have already focused on or continue

1540
02:54:17.840 --> 02:54:24.920
to relax deeply, and those parts that have not yet

1541
02:54:25.159 --> 02:54:38.000
focused on or just automatically release any remain intention in

1542
02:54:38.159 --> 02:54:52.440
anticipation of even more comfort about to come. Now, I'm

1543
02:54:52.440 --> 02:54:58.920
going to start by focusing on your forehead. Just being

1544
02:54:59.040 --> 02:55:08.440
aware the feelings of your forehead and any background sounds

1545
02:55:10.239 --> 02:55:15.079
like mister Herbert o Pigeon can just allow you to

1546
02:55:15.280 --> 02:55:22.520
feel even more relaxed. Just means you're in the moment.

1547
02:55:25.639 --> 02:55:31.000
This isn't this isn't a sterile environment. This is the world.

1548
02:55:34.440 --> 02:55:40.479
I live in the countryside, so there's lots of nature

1549
02:55:41.000 --> 02:55:51.479
sounds around. So as you focus on your forehead, just

1550
02:55:51.760 --> 02:55:59.520
notice how it becomes even more relaxed. Is your focus

1551
02:56:01.840 --> 02:56:06.319
only on my voice and that part of your body.

1552
02:56:11.520 --> 02:56:19.799
Moving down to your eyes, focusing on your eyes, noticing

1553
02:56:22.280 --> 02:56:31.959
how your eyelids feel so heavy yet so light at

1554
02:56:32.040 --> 02:56:38.479
the same time, and all the muscles around your eyes

1555
02:56:38.719 --> 02:56:53.159
relaxing completely. Moving your focus down to your mouth, your lips,

1556
02:56:53.600 --> 02:57:07.760
your tongue, your teeth, your gums, all of your mouth relaxing, calm.

1557
02:57:08.920 --> 02:57:09.440
And lease.

1558
02:57:13.959 --> 02:57:21.760
As you focus now on your jaw, not just the

1559
02:57:21.879 --> 02:57:25.360
parts of your jaw near your mouth and your chin,

1560
02:57:26.639 --> 02:57:29.719
but all the way up the size of your face

1561
02:57:30.920 --> 02:57:35.639
to your ears, the hole of your.

1562
02:57:35.639 --> 02:57:45.600
Jaw feeding more relaxed.

1563
02:57:48.959 --> 02:57:49.719
And calm.

1564
02:57:57.959 --> 02:58:07.000
Focusing on your neck, the front of your neck and

1565
02:58:07.120 --> 02:58:20.120
your throat relaxing and loose and calm. The sides of

1566
02:58:20.239 --> 02:58:25.520
your neck, the right and left side of your neck

1567
02:58:28.479 --> 02:58:36.440
relax and place and calm.

1568
02:58:42.799 --> 02:58:49.479
And now the back of your neck, focusing on the

1569
02:58:49.760 --> 02:59:00.200
back of your neck, letting go of any tension that

1570
02:59:00.360 --> 02:59:05.760
may have been there before, and enjoying that.

1571
02:59:08.399 --> 02:59:19.559
Sense of increasing comfort and release. Then you can experience

1572
02:59:20.680 --> 02:59:30.239
in the back of your neck, moving down your back

1573
02:59:32.719 --> 02:59:37.399
and moving either side of your spine right from the

1574
02:59:37.520 --> 02:59:38.639
top of your back.

1575
02:59:40.440 --> 02:59:41.719
All the way.

1576
02:59:41.719 --> 02:59:54.360
Down to the bottom of your back, down to your

1577
02:59:54.440 --> 03:00:05.000
lower back. As you move up and down your spine,

1578
03:00:07.159 --> 03:00:11.559
you can feel the muscles either side of your spine

1579
03:00:13.799 --> 03:00:28.360
relaxing even more. And as those muscles relax, that sense

1580
03:00:28.440 --> 03:00:38.920
of comfort starts to spread outwards from your spine into

1581
03:00:39.159 --> 03:00:45.760
both sides of your back, the top of your back,

1582
03:00:46.639 --> 03:00:52.879
the middle en your lower back. And as you scan

1583
03:00:54.559 --> 03:01:02.399
gently and slowly up and down your back, there's the

1584
03:01:02.520 --> 03:01:08.399
muscles in the top of your back relax and become looser.

1585
03:01:12.719 --> 03:01:18.719
The muscles in the middle of your back also seem

1586
03:01:18.840 --> 03:01:28.360
to just almost divide from each other, separating and almost melting.

1587
03:01:34.120 --> 03:01:40.120
And in your lower back there seems to be an

1588
03:01:40.159 --> 03:01:54.360
extra special feeling of comfort. The spreads into your hips.

1589
03:01:56.639 --> 03:02:04.479
Sit down your lower back, into your hips, into the

1590
03:02:04.680 --> 03:02:13.440
area where your cosix are, and into your buttocks, and

1591
03:02:13.520 --> 03:02:22.760
all those muscles that spread bring your lower back into

1592
03:02:22.799 --> 03:02:36.120
your hip area start to melt, start to ready, let

1593
03:02:36.239 --> 03:02:47.799
go and even know where about to focus on your shoulders.

1594
03:02:49.600 --> 03:02:56.559
Your back and your spine will continue to let go,

1595
03:03:00.000 --> 03:03:01.520
continue to.

1596
03:03:01.719 --> 03:03:05.959
Relax so.

1597
03:03:08.840 --> 03:03:19.079
Calmly. As you focus on your shoulders, you may notice

1598
03:03:19.479 --> 03:03:43.440
they're already feeling really loose. They're already feeding calm.

1599
03:03:50.120 --> 03:03:51.159
I fear.

1600
03:03:55.120 --> 03:04:03.440
Those muscles the move from your neck into your shoulders

1601
03:04:10.000 --> 03:04:39.399
feel so soft and gentle. So smooth and calm, and

1602
03:04:39.600 --> 03:04:52.440
the feeling in your shoulders seems to spread deep into

1603
03:04:52.559 --> 03:05:02.959
your shoulders, a sense of relaxation, not just traveling deeply

1604
03:05:03.319 --> 03:05:20.319
into your muscles, but also relaxing the bones and moving

1605
03:05:20.440 --> 03:05:28.680
all the way to underneath your arms, relaxing a whole

1606
03:05:28.879 --> 03:05:34.559
area between the tops of your shoulders and underneath your arms.

1607
03:05:38.680 --> 03:05:39.239
Healing.

1608
03:05:44.639 --> 03:05:45.280
You feel so.

1609
03:05:47.239 --> 03:05:58.719
Relaxed and comfortable in your shoulders, which sense that.

1610
03:06:00.959 --> 03:06:02.920
Deep healing.

1611
03:06:05.959 --> 03:06:23.440
Message into your arms. You may feel almost as if

1612
03:06:23.559 --> 03:06:33.360
your arms are not even that, because they're so relaxed, so.

1613
03:06:34.879 --> 03:06:43.600
Deeply relaxed, so.

1614
03:06:47.840 --> 03:07:04.280
So calm, so.

1615
03:07:11.079 --> 03:07:11.360
Loose.

1616
03:07:18.719 --> 03:07:29.879
The feelings spreading all the way down your arms, two elbows,

1617
03:07:33.639 --> 03:08:01.799
including your elbows circumfort spreads your way into wrists, your

1618
03:08:02.079 --> 03:08:19.200
forearments and your wrists so heavy hat the same time,

1619
03:08:26.799 --> 03:08:32.399
silight and gentle.

For sne.

1621
03:09:00.079 --> 03:09:00.879

So peaceful in your hands, the sense real pace just

On your hands, relax deeply.

1638
03:19:35.840 --> 03:19:54.239
lets me go of everything. So I'm gonna start counting

1639
03:19:54.399 --> 03:20:06.079
down now from twenty down to one. You can imagine

1640
03:20:06.159 --> 03:20:09.840
in a way it's like just walking down some steps

1641
03:20:11.799 --> 03:20:16.120
and each step or twenty steps, and each step represents

1642
03:20:17.440 --> 03:20:25.719
a level of comfort. Each step represents.

1643
03:20:27.520 --> 03:20:28.719
A deepening.

1644
03:20:30.280 --> 03:20:40.559
Of that comfort, and the furvies you walk down those

1645
03:20:40.760 --> 03:20:53.840
steps deeper and more relaxed. You feel so starting with

1646
03:20:54.079 --> 03:26:26.600
number twenty twenty, nineteen, eighteen, seventeen sixteenhhhhi three four four.

1647
03:27:33.120 --> 03:32:39.520
Two nohhhh.

1648
03:31:51.760 --> 03:37:04.399
Eight seven six five us four.

1649
03:37:29.040 --> 03:40:00.479
Da no.

1650
03:41:37.159 --> 03:41:49.799
As you focus on your eyes, We're gonna count down

1651
03:41:50.200 --> 03:42:01.360
from tenning down to one. Focus it gust on your eyes,

1652
03:42:05.120 --> 03:42:13.600
your eyelids, the muscles around your eyes, your eye walls themselves,

1653
03:42:15.120 --> 03:42:32.159
a whole area that makes up your eye. And as

1654
03:42:32.239 --> 03:42:40.799
we count down from ten down to one, whilst focusing

1655
03:42:41.040 --> 03:42:56.399
on your eyes, you become twice is relaxed with each

1656
03:42:56.879 --> 03:43:09.280
number counting down that you may find the all you

1657
03:43:09.559 --> 03:43:18.399
want to do is just drift off to sleep. And

1658
03:43:18.600 --> 03:43:25.159
if that's what you want, then just allow yourself to

1659
03:43:25.280 --> 03:43:39.879
do that. Now, focusing on your eyes, I'm going to

1660
03:43:40.040 --> 03:43:49.799
begin counting down from ten down to one right now,

1661
03:43:58.360 --> 03:47:57.399
ten nine eight ye seven I.

1662
03:48:08.559 --> 03:49:08.760
Pictus four.

1663
03:50:22.000 --> 03:53:02.840
Three, So.

1664
03:53:11.280 --> 03:53:22.559
Counting down from ten to one ten nine eight seven

1665
03:53:24.680 --> 03:53:47.280
six five four three two one. And maybe that was

1666
03:53:47.319 --> 03:53:51.520
a bit too quick in order to relax. Maybe it's

1667
03:53:51.520 --> 03:53:57.440
a bit too fast for you to notice the calming

1668
03:53:57.680 --> 03:54:04.559
of your body, maybe even a little bit of pressure there,

1669
03:54:04.719 --> 03:54:08.239
like you're counting down from ten to one. Would you

1670
03:54:08.360 --> 03:54:11.680
expect me to do? Man, expect me to stick go

1671
03:54:11.840 --> 03:54:21.479
with floppy just because you're counting down. You can try

1672
03:54:21.479 --> 03:54:25.040
it again, but this time I'll go a bit slower

1673
03:54:27.280 --> 03:54:32.120
this time that you focus on the whole of your

1674
03:54:32.200 --> 03:54:40.559
body before we focus on your legs. Just notice how

1675
03:54:40.639 --> 03:54:54.760
your body does start to feel more relaxed with every

1676
03:54:54.879 --> 03:55:27.959
number that I count down ten nine eight seven, six

1677
03:55:36.360 --> 03:56:45.319
five four three two one, And just notice how how

1678
03:56:45.399 --> 03:56:55.479
you feel, generally, how your body feels. It's not necessarily

1679
03:56:55.600 --> 03:57:05.959
even about counting down from ten to one. It's that

1680
03:57:06.280 --> 03:57:25.959
space that you have that space between being active physically

1681
03:57:26.159 --> 03:57:35.760
or mentally to just sitting or lying down, just being there,

1682
03:57:36.520 --> 03:57:41.959
not doing anything, not saying anything, or needing to think

1683
03:57:42.079 --> 03:57:47.959
about anything. So it opens up a space, you know,

1684
03:57:48.159 --> 03:57:57.479
a bit of a space, a gap. And the more

1685
03:57:58.760 --> 03:58:02.120
I came down from ten to one, the bigger that

1686
03:58:02.319 --> 03:58:13.319
gap becomes. So there's that gap of calmness, of comfort, relaxation.

1687
03:58:19.239 --> 03:58:31.600
It's a nice feeling, and it moves those stresses or

1688
03:58:32.120 --> 03:58:46.000
discomforts physically or emotionally, moves them away. Allows you.

1689
03:58:48.719 --> 03:58:49.200
To just.

1690
03:58:52.200 --> 03:58:58.920
Slow down, someone to count again from ten down to one,

1691
03:58:59.360 --> 03:59:09.559
and notice that gap widening, the gap, And as it widens,

1692
03:59:09.639 --> 03:59:15.680
it's almost like the stress and attention falls into the

1693
03:59:15.760 --> 04:00:37.200
gap and gives you that distance, that space. Now ten nine, eight, seven, six, five, four.

1694
04:00:55.280 --> 04:01:12.200
Three two.

1695
04:01:30.520 --> 04:01:46.719
One. How did you work? Body feel.

1696
04:01:48.680 --> 04:01:48.840
Now?

1697
04:02:01.559 --> 04:02:14.200
Can you notice that? Do you feeling calmer, the feeling

1698
04:02:16.559 --> 04:02:43.959
more relaxed as we now focus on your legs, just

1699
04:02:44.120 --> 04:03:05.479
your legs. We're just gonna start with focusing on your thighs.

1700
04:03:20.319 --> 04:03:24.600
Of course, it's not the most exciting thing to be doing,

1701
04:03:25.399 --> 04:03:31.760
because I'm sure like most of your body is not

1702
04:03:31.840 --> 04:03:44.000
a lot going on right now. Just focusing on the

1703
04:03:44.159 --> 04:03:50.200
whole of your thighs, the tops of your thighs, the

1704
04:03:50.520 --> 04:03:57.159
sides of your thighs, the bottoms of your thighs, your

1705
04:03:57.280 --> 04:04:02.559
outer thighs, and you're inner thighs, basically the whole of

1706
04:04:02.639 --> 04:04:10.440
your thigh that leads into your hip and it goes

1707
04:04:11.479 --> 04:04:21.559
down to your knee joints. Now, this is a big area.

1708
04:04:26.079 --> 04:04:31.000
It's a very heavy area. It's very strong, probably the

1709
04:04:31.120 --> 04:04:45.799
strongest muscles in your body or in your thighs. But

1710
04:04:45.879 --> 04:04:54.280
I don't think we perhaps give enough attention to our thighs.

1711
04:05:00.239 --> 04:05:07.840
Perhaps we don't and acknowledge how important our thighs are

1712
04:05:10.959 --> 04:05:27.719
to our lives, how much they actually do for us

1713
04:05:31.639 --> 04:05:41.680
all through our lives. And it may seem to sound

1714
04:05:41.760 --> 04:05:47.399
really weird, but I think that all of our body parts,

1715
04:05:50.319 --> 04:05:58.600
especially our thighs, needs some TLC, a bit of love shown,

1716
04:05:59.559 --> 04:06:17.799
a bit of acknowledgement. I thank you gratitude for our

1717
04:06:17.959 --> 04:06:27.280
thighs do for us. And I know this may sound

1718
04:06:27.360 --> 04:06:33.639
a bit strange. Maybe you think, why am I sure

1719
04:06:33.719 --> 04:06:36.559
I should be out in the garden hugging a tree

1720
04:06:36.760 --> 04:06:44.879
or something. Well, it's hard to set a microphone up

1721
04:06:44.920 --> 04:06:48.239
on a tree. That's why I'm doing this indoors Otherwise

1722
04:06:48.280 --> 04:06:51.799
I wouldn't be outside hugging a tree. I can't see

1723
04:06:51.920 --> 04:07:00.719
the television from the tree. You move down to your

1724
04:07:00.799 --> 04:07:10.639
knees gain such an important part, and I think we

1725
04:07:10.760 --> 04:07:18.159
don't necessarily I'll speak for myself here, I don't necessarily

1726
04:07:18.239 --> 04:07:25.639
appreciate all that my needs do for me until I

1727
04:07:25.760 --> 04:07:29.319
have a problem with my knee. It's occasionally, if I ever,

1728
04:07:30.879 --> 04:07:34.840
maybe i'll bash it, or it's aching for some reason.

1729
04:07:36.600 --> 04:07:42.760
It's then that I realize how much it does. You know,

1730
04:07:42.879 --> 04:07:48.799
the benefit of being able to use my legs without

1731
04:07:50.600 --> 04:07:57.840
any kind of physical discomfort is a beautiful thing that's

1732
04:07:58.040 --> 04:08:06.440
possibly not appreciated. It's temporarily removed. You know that's comfort.

1733
04:08:10.559 --> 04:08:15.159
But as you focus on your knees, regardless of how

1734
04:08:15.239 --> 04:08:22.719
your knees feel, you can have that sense of gratitude

1735
04:08:24.280 --> 04:08:26.879
and love to your knees for all that they do

1736
04:08:27.079 --> 04:08:40.040
for you, and you can still have that attention on

1737
04:08:40.200 --> 04:08:46.879
your thighs. Maybe notice how your thighs feel. Maybe you've

1738
04:08:47.079 --> 04:09:04.639
noticed that they are relaxing more deeply as you focus

1739
04:09:04.840 --> 04:09:10.399
now on the bottoms of your legs, your shins and

1740
04:09:10.479 --> 04:09:17.079
your calf muscles, the bones between your knees and your

1741
04:09:17.120 --> 04:09:30.159
feet incorporate. And of course your ankles so important. You know,

1742
04:09:30.200 --> 04:09:35.000
anyone has had even like the slightest sprain of an

1743
04:09:35.040 --> 04:09:43.120
ankle knows how how much we take our ankles for granted.

1744
04:09:49.040 --> 04:09:51.040
And it's kind of strange in a way when you

1745
04:09:51.120 --> 04:09:56.719
think that. You know, logically, our wrists are a lot

1746
04:09:56.879 --> 04:10:01.719
thinner than the rest of our arms, which is okay,

1747
04:10:02.760 --> 04:10:05.799
you can't see any problem with that because we're just

1748
04:10:05.920 --> 04:10:13.600
picking stuff up by our ankles so much thinner than

1749
04:10:13.639 --> 04:10:22.719
the rest of our legs. And from a physics perspective

1750
04:10:23.959 --> 04:10:28.159
or logical even it doesn't really make sense that all

1751
04:10:28.280 --> 04:10:37.000
this weight would ultimately be resting on your ankles then

1752
04:10:37.120 --> 04:10:50.239
leading to your feet that thin area, thin bone. Yeah,

1753
04:10:50.319 --> 04:10:56.040
it does so much great work. Supports us, supports our

1754
04:10:56.120 --> 04:11:07.879
body for a lifetime, helps us to balance, It helps

1755
04:11:07.959 --> 04:11:20.600
you to get around and be mobile. And there's the

1756
04:11:20.719 --> 04:11:28.840
calf muscles. Of course, when I was younger, I couldn't

1757
04:11:28.879 --> 04:11:34.239
see the pointing calf muscles didn't seem to do anything. Okay,

1758
04:11:35.360 --> 04:11:38.920
if I walked around on tiptoes, then my calf muscles

1759
04:11:39.000 --> 04:11:42.479
get some work. But of course that's not true. The

1760
04:11:42.639 --> 04:11:47.000
calf muscles are being used whenever we use our legs

1761
04:11:52.600 --> 04:12:05.440
and your shins there to protect legs shaped in a

1762
04:12:05.559 --> 04:12:19.360
way almost as a protector for the bone, leading of

1763
04:12:19.479 --> 04:12:29.799
course to your ankles and your feet. But we're not

1764
04:12:29.879 --> 04:12:31.760
going to focus on your feet. We're just going to

1765
04:12:31.840 --> 04:12:38.399
focus on the legs. I realize, and now that I've

1766
04:12:38.520 --> 04:12:43.200
mentioned your feet, you'll probably focus on them anyway. So

1767
04:12:43.360 --> 04:12:45.719
maybe I should focus on your feet a little bit.

1768
04:12:49.760 --> 04:12:54.200
You can have them in your awareness the same as

1769
04:12:54.280 --> 04:12:58.639
you have your thighs in your awareness. Even though we

1770
04:12:58.760 --> 04:13:02.719
haven't been focusing on your thighs for a few minutes,

1771
04:13:04.559 --> 04:13:13.319
let me focus in on your ankles. There's still that

1772
04:13:14.719 --> 04:13:29.239
sensation of comfort in your thighs, and there's that movement

1773
04:13:30.879 --> 04:13:38.840
of energy because the thighs hold lots of different sensations.

1774
04:13:40.280 --> 04:13:45.159
Of course, there's the muscles, the big straw muscles that

1775
04:13:45.280 --> 04:13:58.120
we have in our thighs. But the skin on the

1776
04:13:58.280 --> 04:14:03.719
outside of the thighs, as in the outside of all

1777
04:14:03.840 --> 04:14:12.639
of our body, can be very sensitive, sensitive to the touch,

1778
04:14:15.440 --> 04:14:28.760
sensitive to temperature, and inside your thighs the bones, there's

1779
04:14:29.799 --> 04:14:33.319
the muscle, there's the blood, vessels, the ar trees.

1780
04:14:34.559 --> 04:14:35.200
To all this.

1781
04:14:35.399 --> 04:14:44.600
Stuff that's inside your thighs. I guess sometimes it'd be

1782
04:14:44.760 --> 04:14:48.840
nice if you could actually put your fingers inside your

1783
04:14:48.959 --> 04:14:55.159
thighs and message. So you can message on the outside,

1784
04:14:55.319 --> 04:14:58.280
of course, but to be able to get deep into

1785
04:14:58.360 --> 04:15:03.840
the muscles, to be able to just massage inside your thighs,

1786
04:15:04.719 --> 04:15:13.159
message in the bones of your leg massage in all

1787
04:15:13.200 --> 04:15:24.000
the veins, just gently healing your thighs and you can

1788
04:15:24.159 --> 04:15:31.040
move down message and inside your knees. Just message in

1789
04:15:31.159 --> 04:15:38.520
those bones, but with healing fingertips, spreading that healing energy

1790
04:15:39.280 --> 04:15:49.000
deep into the choice of your knees. Of course, there's

1791
04:15:49.040 --> 04:15:53.479
the back of your your need and the inside crease

1792
04:15:54.479 --> 04:16:02.159
where your knee is. It's a really sensitive area. It

1793
04:16:02.200 --> 04:16:05.959
feels very nice when you stroke it, and that might

1794
04:16:06.040 --> 04:16:10.200
be because it's an area that's not really touched very often.

1795
04:16:12.239 --> 04:16:19.079
It's almost like a hidden part, that crease in your legs.

1796
04:16:19.200 --> 04:16:26.239
It's almost it's like a part that has a sensitivity,

1797
04:16:26.360 --> 04:16:36.760
which is a little bit different. Of course, it's protected

1798
04:16:36.879 --> 04:16:48.079
by your legs, so you can imagine putting your fingers

1799
04:16:48.280 --> 04:16:58.280
into that crease in your legs. Fold in between your legs.

1800
04:16:59.000 --> 04:17:02.920
You can just mess up of your fingertips, letting your

1801
04:17:03.000 --> 04:17:14.120
fingertips going inside, massage in the muscle tissue you can

1802
04:17:14.360 --> 04:17:21.440
cause fielder the bones of your knees, healing through your fingertips,

1803
04:17:28.840 --> 04:17:34.159
and then as you go down to your calf muscles,

1804
04:17:34.559 --> 04:17:36.239
and that's the part I'd like to be able to

1805
04:17:37.079 --> 04:17:44.440
really put my fingertips deep inside my calf muscles, massage

1806
04:17:44.559 --> 04:17:53.600
in every single tissue of that muscle, healing every part.

1807
04:17:59.559 --> 04:18:05.680
And then in the same for my shins, massage and

1808
04:18:06.559 --> 04:18:13.520
generally stroking the bones, generally stroking them, healing in a

1809
04:18:13.639 --> 04:18:20.799
loving way because they deserve to be treated. There's the

1810
04:18:20.920 --> 04:18:24.840
precious bones that they are. Because our legs are so

1811
04:18:25.079 --> 04:18:28.600
precious as in all the other parts of our body,

1812
04:18:31.079 --> 04:18:44.959
the more precious of any chure on the planet. When

1813
04:18:45.040 --> 04:18:52.799
you start to think about your legs in this way,

1814
04:18:57.360 --> 04:19:04.040
they can change your perspective. It might sound a bit

1815
04:19:07.120 --> 04:19:11.399
a bit silly to start with the idea of having

1816
04:19:12.319 --> 04:19:22.319
love for your legs, showing appreciation for your thighs, wanting

1817
04:19:22.440 --> 04:19:26.360
to be able to put your hands in your thighs,

1818
04:19:28.600 --> 04:19:34.920
massage the muscles and the bones, and to get your

1819
04:19:35.040 --> 04:19:43.079
fingers deep in there and releasing all tension, just to

1820
04:19:43.280 --> 04:19:52.680
show how much you care about your legs, how much

1821
04:19:52.760 --> 04:19:55.719
you care for what your legs do.

1822
04:19:56.120 --> 04:19:56.360
For you.

1823
04:19:57.959 --> 04:20:10.079
Regularly, your knees, your calves, your ankles, the strength of

1824
04:20:10.200 --> 04:20:18.239
your ankles considering how thin they are compared to the

1825
04:20:18.360 --> 04:20:26.040
rest of your legs, especially your thighs. Yeah, this so strong,

1826
04:20:27.600 --> 04:20:42.040
so flexible, absolutely amazing things. Your ankles are truly a

1827
04:20:42.200 --> 04:20:53.000
gift because of what they do for you supporting all

1828
04:20:53.200 --> 04:21:00.280
that weight. Regardless of how what weight you are. If

1829
04:21:00.280 --> 04:21:04.760
you only eat ate stone, there's still a lot of

1830
04:21:04.879 --> 04:21:11.360
weight for these little ankles. Now, I am a lot

1831
04:21:11.600 --> 04:21:21.520
heavier than eight stone double down, Yet my ankles support

1832
04:21:21.639 --> 04:21:29.000
my body all the time, or they do give off

1833
04:21:29.040 --> 04:21:34.399
a sigh of relief when I sit down. That's I've

1834
04:21:34.440 --> 04:21:41.360
had my whole legs though my feet feet or so

1835
04:21:41.600 --> 04:22:09.040
go my toes clap. I'm so happy. Your legs really

1836
04:22:10.520 --> 04:22:16.920
are amazing. And I know that talking about talking about

1837
04:22:17.040 --> 04:22:23.760
your legs is probably possibly among the most most boring

1838
04:22:23.879 --> 04:22:31.360
things I've ever heard anyone say. Possibly you're boring or not.

1839
04:22:33.000 --> 04:22:48.479
Everything I said is true. Your legs are amazing. Your

1840
04:22:48.559 --> 04:23:01.159
legs deserve not just respect, They deserve to relax deeply.

1841
04:23:08.440 --> 04:23:11.799
They deserve to take some time out of the day

1842
04:23:14.000 --> 04:23:42.719
to just let go completely. Your legs really can relax

1843
04:23:50.360 --> 04:23:54.479
and because the legs are so such a most you know,

1844
04:23:54.719 --> 04:24:00.680
very important part of your body. When you relax lets

1845
04:24:00.760 --> 04:24:06.520
the rest of your body also naturally follows.

1846
04:24:07.440 --> 04:24:08.040
In that.

1847
04:24:11.719 --> 04:24:22.559
Journey of comfort, Like I feel it in my hips.

1848
04:24:23.959 --> 04:24:31.079
My hips feel really loose, and also my lower back

1849
04:24:31.120 --> 04:24:37.719
as well. My lower back really feels it feels stretched,

1850
04:24:38.879 --> 04:24:41.879
even though I'm just sitting in a chair and there's

1851
04:24:42.000 --> 04:24:47.239
no stretching as far as I'm aware that I'm doing.

1852
04:24:48.280 --> 04:24:50.920
It's almost as if the muscles are just relaxed so

1853
04:24:51.159 --> 04:24:57.079
much that there is a natural stretch as the tension

1854
04:24:57.959 --> 04:25:19.239
has reduced a lot. And I'm now going to count

1855
04:25:19.319 --> 04:25:27.200
down from ten down to one, and you can continue

1856
04:25:29.040 --> 04:25:55.280
to fill wonderfully relaxed ten nine, eight, seven, six, five

1857
04:26:00.200 --> 04:26:04.040
or three.

1858
04:26:07.879 --> 04:26:13.040
Two one.

1859
04:26:18.840 --> 04:26:19.440
Relax.

1860
04:26:27.319 --> 04:26:31.159
So I'm just going to count down the five down

1861
04:26:31.239 --> 04:26:35.680
to one. And as I countdown, if you just focus

1862
04:26:35.760 --> 04:26:43.680
on the numbers, just the numbers counting down, and notice

1863
04:26:44.600 --> 04:26:46.959
how you feel.

1864
04:26:49.319 --> 04:26:50.479
In this moment.

1865
04:26:51.920 --> 04:26:56.280
As you hear the numbers counting down, knowing that those

1866
04:26:56.479 --> 04:27:09.520
numbers counting down represent you feeling calmer, not just in

1867
04:27:09.600 --> 04:27:10.399
your body.

1868
04:27:10.280 --> 04:27:11.120
But also.

1869
04:27:13.120 --> 04:27:20.239
Relaxing your mind. Just notice how you feel. There's nothing

1870
04:27:21.000 --> 04:27:25.959
to do, there's nothing to say, there's nothing to think

1871
04:27:26.000 --> 04:27:33.079
about starting with number five.

1872
04:27:41.559 --> 04:27:51.799
Four three.

1873
04:28:02.159 --> 04:28:27.239
Two one. And as you notice the gradual letting go

1874
04:28:29.639 --> 04:28:36.559
of the tension in your body, you may also begin

1875
04:28:36.879 --> 04:28:42.840
to notice and be aware of how your mind is

1876
04:28:43.959 --> 04:28:51.760
starting to slow down. This is just a natural thing

1877
04:28:52.280 --> 04:28:59.600
that happens. It's not really a special procedure. It's just

1878
04:29:00.079 --> 04:29:06.079
sure because is your body relaxes, your mind also starts

1879
04:29:06.120 --> 04:29:10.840
to relax. And the more your mind relaxes, the more

1880
04:29:10.840 --> 04:29:16.120
your body relaxes. It's just a continuous circle of relaxation.

1881
04:29:22.159 --> 04:29:30.680
And is that calmness that comes from relative quietness. You know,

1882
04:29:30.840 --> 04:29:36.440
even even if this background sounds, either your side orline

1883
04:29:38.239 --> 04:29:44.040
is still going to be quite calm. You know, you

1884
04:29:44.120 --> 04:29:49.319
haven't got the television on, there's no music in the background,

1885
04:29:49.440 --> 04:29:52.079
unless you're listening to the recording with music, of course,

1886
04:29:56.959 --> 04:29:59.120
you're very likely not going to be sitting in a

1887
04:29:59.239 --> 04:30:02.360
room with other people. Of course you might be, but

1888
04:30:03.639 --> 04:30:06.920
generally it's more ideal if you can do this on

1889
04:30:07.040 --> 04:30:18.360
your own, so no distractions. And when you stop thinking

1890
04:30:18.399 --> 04:30:35.600
about stuff, relaxation automatically rises. A sense of comfort starts

1891
04:30:35.639 --> 04:30:44.399
to grow, and without trying to build it up into

1892
04:30:44.520 --> 04:30:47.719
something fantastical or.

1893
04:30:51.040 --> 04:30:52.079
Something magical.

1894
04:30:54.200 --> 04:31:04.399
This is just a natural process, something that's easy to accomplish.

1895
04:31:07.239 --> 04:31:11.600
In fact, it's almost you know, the sense of relaxing

1896
04:31:12.440 --> 04:31:18.159
completely happens really when you put no effort into it.

1897
04:31:19.159 --> 04:31:24.879
It's not something that you can really force. It's something

1898
04:31:25.040 --> 04:31:35.760
that happens naturally. And part of the process of this

1899
04:31:36.079 --> 04:31:48.000
recording and others is simply two allow you to take

1900
04:31:48.079 --> 04:31:51.600
advantage of this space.

1901
04:31:54.280 --> 04:31:58.520
This time, it's just.

1902
04:32:02.680 --> 04:32:10.200
Let go, to just be here, to be in tune

1903
04:32:13.920 --> 04:32:26.000
with how you feel, yet with the intention of wanting

1904
04:32:26.280 --> 04:32:38.399
to relax deeply and maybe even to fall asleep, depending

1905
04:32:38.639 --> 04:32:44.840
on what it is that you wish for yourself in

1906
04:32:45.000 --> 04:33:01.120
this moment. As we know, relaxing is the majority of

1907
04:33:01.280 --> 04:33:05.840
the process of falling asleep. The actual falling asleep part

1908
04:33:06.080 --> 04:33:14.319
is the tiny bit at the end. The deeper relaxed

1909
04:33:14.639 --> 04:33:36.159
you become, the easier you find yourself drifting. But you

1910
04:33:36.240 --> 04:33:43.279
can also if you choose stay focused on my voice

1911
04:33:45.000 --> 04:34:11.840
and really enjoy the process of gratch, relaxing each muscle

1912
04:34:16.439 --> 04:34:43.319
in your body effortlessly and just observing the sensation of

1913
04:34:43.599 --> 04:34:59.200
letting go completely. This time, I'm going to count from

1914
04:34:59.439 --> 04:35:09.599
six down to one, and you can notice your mind

1915
04:35:12.240 --> 04:35:20.000
calming down more with each number that you hear me

1916
04:35:20.240 --> 04:35:36.439
say naturally, feeling calm and slow and peaceful.

1917
04:35:41.759 --> 04:36:29.080
Sex fivehhhhhhhhhhh, four.

1918
04:37:01.000 --> 04:38:36.080
Three one, being aware of how your mind to slowed

1919
04:38:38.240 --> 04:39:04.639
right down, sinking deeply into relaxation. And as you focus

1920
04:39:04.799 --> 04:39:13.119
on your mind, you may notice that there are some

1921
04:39:14.040 --> 04:39:23.400
thoughts still there, maybe some stubborn thoughts that for some

1922
04:39:23.680 --> 04:39:36.639
reason perhaps need your attention. That's what you can do

1923
04:39:36.880 --> 04:39:55.000
is send love to those thoughts. Sprinkle those thoughts with love,

1924
04:39:56.759 --> 04:40:02.919
my little petals from a flower, Just sprinkle it over them, petals,

1925
04:40:03.000 --> 04:40:10.720
fill good love towards those thoughts. To let those thoughts murder.

1926
04:40:13.040 --> 04:40:18.479
You're not abandon the number. You just need them. You

1927
04:40:18.680 --> 04:40:30.159
require them to just calm down, slow down, quiet down

1928
04:40:34.080 --> 04:40:45.840
for now. So as you focus on those remaining thoughts

1929
04:40:47.080 --> 04:40:51.159
as we count down this time from seven down to one.

1930
04:40:52.720 --> 04:41:06.799
With each number, just imagine sprinkling those flowers pedals love, love, kindness,

1931
04:41:08.400 --> 04:41:20.240
gratitude over those thoughts, which will allow them to just

1932
04:41:21.680 --> 04:41:36.720
melt away and relax deeply. With every number, those thoughts

1933
04:41:36.840 --> 04:42:45.680
will become more and more relaxed. Starting with number seven, six, five, four.

1934
04:43:11.439 --> 04:44:03.520
Three one.

1935
04:44:20.159 --> 04:44:37.119
How as you now notice how relaxed you're feeling in

1936
04:44:37.279 --> 04:44:58.840
your body. We're going to focus on your hands, because

1937
04:44:58.959 --> 04:45:04.639
the more relax ext your hands are, the more relax

1938
04:45:05.000 --> 04:45:26.040
your body and mind are. There's you focus on your

1939
04:45:26.200 --> 04:45:36.400
hands and your fingers. There's nothing needed to be done.

1940
04:45:37.400 --> 04:45:42.479
There's no clinching of fists or tents in the fingers

1941
04:45:42.599 --> 04:45:56.159
or anything like that. It's just noticing and focusing on

1942
04:45:56.360 --> 04:46:24.520
your hands, noticing how they feel. Because the more relaxed

1943
04:46:25.000 --> 04:46:34.680
your hands feel, the calmer your mind feels, and the

1944
04:46:35.000 --> 04:46:54.479
more comforts you feel throughout your body. JE may have

1945
04:46:58.560 --> 04:47:37.520
already noticed you mind is starting to drift. Hicks him

1946
04:47:41.599 --> 04:47:56.279
just on your hands and fingers, allowing them cheat experience

1947
04:47:58.959 --> 04:48:07.200
a real deepening of that relaxation in your hands and fingers,

1948
04:48:13.240 --> 04:48:35.560
more and more relaxed. With each number from eight down

1949
04:48:35.680 --> 04:48:48.240
to one, you can almost feel that healing and relax

1950
04:48:48.479 --> 04:49:08.080
and energy spreading into your hands and fingers becoming ere relaxing.

1951
04:49:11.200 --> 04:49:30.240
With each number going down eight down to one, drifting

1952
04:49:33.919 --> 04:53:40.639
drifting again starting with number eight, seven, four, three, just

1953
04:53:40.880 --> 04:53:49.880
being here now, nothing to think about, nothing to do,

1954
04:53:51.520 --> 04:54:05.439
nothing to say, and everything just feels harmer. And this

1955
04:54:05.720 --> 04:54:13.319
is your natural state of being. This is how you

1956
04:54:13.599 --> 04:54:19.840
just normally feel. When you take away all of that

1957
04:54:20.319 --> 04:54:27.680
other stuff that we add, you know, thinks like stress

1958
04:54:27.799 --> 04:54:43.400
and worry in and overthinking, anxiety, tension, just generally thinking

1959
04:54:43.520 --> 04:54:49.360
about stuff. We take that away, which is what we

1960
04:54:49.520 --> 04:55:01.200
do and what we do now you're left with a

1961
04:55:01.319 --> 04:55:10.200
real sense of peacefulness, which comes to you very quickly,

1962
04:55:14.400 --> 04:55:25.240
because ultimately it's just a feeling, a feeling of comfort,

1963
04:55:29.200 --> 04:55:32.599
almost as if you've gone inside yourself and you've found

1964
04:55:33.319 --> 04:55:47.319
a special place where everything is peaceful, a place where

1965
04:55:47.479 --> 04:55:55.000
you can film relaxed and joy natural sense of comfort,

1966
04:55:58.159 --> 04:56:05.520
a place where you can be you, where you can

1967
04:56:06.279 --> 04:56:12.919
accept yourself and who you are, the place where you're

1968
04:56:12.959 --> 04:56:23.439
not trying to please anybody else, in a place where

1969
04:56:23.560 --> 04:56:32.959
you can actually not just love yourself, but in some

1970
04:56:33.119 --> 04:56:42.599
ways more importantly, you can like yourself, appreciate who you are,

1971
04:56:51.439 --> 04:56:58.040
a sense of gratitude. He's in the air way around you.

1972
04:57:05.720 --> 04:57:13.560
That's also a place where you can actually feel the

1973
04:57:13.880 --> 04:57:29.159
healing energy soaking into your body. Healing energy soaking into

1974
04:57:29.279 --> 04:57:43.479
your body. That healing energy spreads through your veins, traveling

1975
04:57:43.680 --> 04:57:56.080
to each every single part of your body, and you

1976
04:57:56.200 --> 04:58:03.159
start to realize that actually that healing energy. It's not

1977
04:58:03.479 --> 04:58:10.919
just entered into your brain, it's become part of your brain,

1978
04:58:15.880 --> 04:58:22.520
and the spinal fluid is now mixed with healing energy,

1979
04:58:27.799 --> 04:58:34.040
not just allowing you to feel so much more relaxed

1980
04:58:36.119 --> 04:58:48.080
and healthy in this moment, but also you start to

1981
04:58:48.279 --> 04:58:59.080
realize that actually, what's happening now without healing relaxing energy

1982
04:59:00.080 --> 04:59:11.959
spreading through your body is actually changing your life. It's

1983
04:59:12.040 --> 04:59:17.599
actually changing the way you're going to feel, not just now,

1984
04:59:19.400 --> 04:59:26.240
but tomorrow and the next day. As your health improves,

1985
04:59:29.840 --> 04:59:37.159
not just your physical health, but your mental health. Things

1986
04:59:37.560 --> 04:59:42.759
that used to bother you in the past, for some reason,

1987
04:59:44.000 --> 04:59:51.520
no longer have the effect that they used to because

1988
04:59:51.680 --> 05:00:03.319
something has changed deep within you. Maybe things that used

1989
05:00:03.400 --> 05:00:13.840
to cause you to feel anger no longer have that

1990
05:00:14.759 --> 05:00:22.720
power to control you the way they seem to be

1991
05:00:22.840 --> 05:00:31.919
able to before. As you realize that you're the one

1992
05:00:33.959 --> 05:00:45.720
who decides what affects you, you're the one who decides

1993
05:00:48.520 --> 05:00:59.560
to feel relaxed and calm when you choose to enjoy

1994
05:01:01.119 --> 05:01:13.759
noticing these natural developments of healing continue it to grow

1995
05:01:16.599 --> 05:01:27.880
and improve your life day by day, including of course,

1996
05:01:28.000 --> 05:01:45.520
your ability to relax so much easier than sleeping. It's

1997
05:01:45.560 --> 05:01:55.919
the most natural thing in the world to you, because

1998
05:01:56.159 --> 05:02:03.319
falling asleep is something that you've done so many times

1999
05:02:05.080 --> 05:02:10.680
in your life, and you know that you were born,

2000
05:02:12.200 --> 05:02:18.840
as we all were, with the ability to fall asleep naturally.

2001
05:02:23.040 --> 05:02:33.720
We were born with that ability to just drift off

2002
05:02:34.479 --> 05:02:47.599
into a deep, healing sleep. Even when we're kids, sometimes

2003
05:02:47.720 --> 05:02:52.159
will fall asleep and we don't even want to try

2004
05:02:52.240 --> 05:02:57.000
to stay awake. Maybe it's a birthday in the morning,

2005
05:02:57.159 --> 05:03:01.479
or it's Christmas or holiday or something we look forward to.

2006
05:03:02.080 --> 05:03:06.119
We don't want to go to sleep. But the more

2007
05:03:06.720 --> 05:03:11.599
we want to stay awake, the more we just start

2008
05:03:11.680 --> 05:03:20.400
to drift. And the more you fight drifting, we try

2009
05:03:20.479 --> 05:03:26.360
to stop yourself and drifting asleep, the deeper and stronger

2010
05:03:26.479 --> 05:03:37.680
that drifting becomes. Because we're born not just with the

2011
05:03:37.919 --> 05:03:47.319
need to relax deeply and to naturally fall asleep, but

2012
05:03:47.439 --> 05:04:01.720
it's our birthright, it's part of our DNA, and sometimes

2013
05:04:01.880 --> 05:04:07.279
as we get older in life, perhaps at times we

2014
05:04:07.639 --> 05:04:23.759
have forgotten relaxing completely. It's not only a wonderfully pleasant experience,

2015
05:04:29.520 --> 05:04:47.520
it's also really easy. It's very very easy to let go,

2016
05:04:49.599 --> 05:04:59.200
because that's all it is, is just deciding to let go.

2017
05:05:04.439 --> 05:05:10.400
And when you press the play button on my recordings.

2018
05:05:12.279 --> 05:05:23.439
You have given permission for my voice to relax when

2019
05:05:23.479 --> 05:05:27.560
you press that play button. You have given me permission

2020
05:05:28.799 --> 05:05:30.319
for my words.

2021
05:05:33.720 --> 05:05:34.919
To effect.

2022
05:05:36.959 --> 05:05:48.759
You in a positive, only a positive way, opening up

2023
05:05:54.000 --> 05:06:12.240
your mind to useful and healing suggestions that can have

2024
05:06:16.799 --> 05:06:24.240
such an amazing effect on how you feel right now,

2025
05:06:28.959 --> 05:06:38.799
as well as those changes that continue long after the

2026
05:06:38.959 --> 05:06:49.599
recording ends, those changes within you that continue to flourish

2027
05:06:50.479 --> 05:07:05.040
and grow, transforming your life in a positive, beautiful way,

2028
05:07:08.119 --> 05:07:15.159
allowing you to move forward in your life in the

2029
05:07:15.319 --> 05:07:32.560
direction that you choose for yourself. And this feeling, this

2030
05:07:32.840 --> 05:07:48.439
feeling that you can experience of safety, comfort, calmness, This

2031
05:07:48.720 --> 05:08:10.279
feels so nice, such a healthy place to be, and

2032
05:08:10.479 --> 05:08:28.240
that positivity grows within you each and every day. Moving forward,

2033
05:08:32.080 --> 05:08:43.040
you're going to find that you're more relaxed physically and

2034
05:08:43.240 --> 05:08:51.880
in your mind is more relaxed. And it's not that

2035
05:08:52.040 --> 05:08:57.560
you're thinking slower. It's just that your mind will be

2036
05:08:57.799 --> 05:09:09.599
less clogged up with unnecessary negativity because from now on,

2037
05:09:10.279 --> 05:09:19.919
your mind rejects negativity. From now on, you're going to

2038
05:09:20.080 --> 05:09:36.959
start noticing when negativity arises and you can just say stop, stop,

2039
05:09:39.840 --> 05:09:55.360
and the negativity will turn around and leave you alone, stop.

2040
05:09:59.159 --> 05:10:00.360
And that negative.

2041
05:10:00.000 --> 05:10:16.200
Activity would disappear. And as you notice that you feel

2042
05:10:17.560 --> 05:10:29.639
way more relaxed than you probably expected, you can now

2043
05:10:33.159 --> 05:10:39.040
congratulate yourself because you are the person that has done this.

2044
05:10:40.799 --> 05:10:46.240
You are the one that has opened your mind up

2045
05:10:46.959 --> 05:10:55.000
to the simple facts that you can feel more relaxed

2046
05:10:55.080 --> 05:11:04.759
in your body and in your mind. You've opened your

2047
05:11:04.919 --> 05:11:10.400
mind up to the birthright of being able to just.

2048
05:11:13.080 --> 05:11:17.720
Fall asleep easily when you choose.

2049
05:11:26.439 --> 05:11:33.599
And that's a nice feeling. Don't you think it feels nice?

2050
05:11:33.720 --> 05:11:34.080
Doesn't it?

2051
05:11:37.200 --> 05:11:39.959
To feel calm.

2052
05:11:41.240 --> 05:11:41.479
Full?

2053
05:11:41.560 --> 05:11:46.119
The healing energy is spreading through your body, in your

2054
05:11:46.240 --> 05:12:03.680
mind to spend time a special place where negativity can

2055
05:12:03.840 --> 05:12:16.560
no longer enter. Negativity is banned. It's bad, it's not

2056
05:12:16.639 --> 05:12:23.639
allowed entry. Doesn't it doesn't. This doesn't deserve to be here,

2057
05:12:24.119 --> 05:12:33.119
doesn't belong here. Negativity has no place in your life,

2058
05:12:43.119 --> 05:12:52.599
which makes room for more comfort, more healing, more relaxation,

2059
05:12:57.479 --> 05:13:16.639
more peace. It feels nice, doesn't it.

2060
05:13:18.479 --> 05:13:22.639
Just let go.

2061
05:13:24.639 --> 05:13:44.479
With everything. I'm gonna count down now from twenty down

2062
05:13:44.599 --> 05:13:53.919
to one. You can continue to relax if you choose,

2063
05:13:54.520 --> 05:14:08.119
You can drift to sleep with every number. Hear me

2064
05:14:08.360 --> 05:14:19.720
say you can fill twice is relaxed or if you

2065
05:14:19.959 --> 05:15:02.520
choose you can fill twice sleeping now twenty nineteen, eighteen seven,

2066
05:15:02.880 --> 05:16:26.599
team sixteen, fifteen, fourteen, thirty two, eleven, ten, nine, eight, seven,

2067
05:16:35.439 --> 05:17:29.400
six five, wh or this is your time to just

2068
05:17:29.520 --> 05:17:44.240
take a break, your time to relax, to allow your

2069
05:17:44.520 --> 05:18:01.240
mind to slow down, to give yourself a permission to

2070
05:18:01.439 --> 05:18:16.000
take a break from everything. Ensure the only person that

2071
05:18:16.159 --> 05:18:17.799
can make that decision.

2072
05:18:20.680 --> 05:18:21.319
You're the only.

2073
05:18:21.279 --> 05:18:37.599
Person that can actually tell your mind just relax, to

2074
05:18:37.919 --> 05:18:54.360
just take some time off so that you can focus

2075
05:18:54.520 --> 05:19:00.080
on your body, getting in touch with how you feel.

2076
05:19:01.439 --> 05:19:01.919
Physically.

2077
05:19:10.840 --> 05:19:17.200
And in the process of this body scanned, where you

2078
05:19:18.040 --> 05:19:28.439
focus on different parts of your body, those parts that

2079
05:19:28.599 --> 05:19:36.840
you focus on and observe. Even though you're not purposely

2080
05:19:38.080 --> 05:19:46.080
requesting for those parts of your body to relax, it's

2081
05:19:46.200 --> 05:19:52.439
kind of expected. You expect when you listen to my

2082
05:19:52.639 --> 05:20:05.560
voice to feel more relaxed naturally, because when you're listening

2083
05:20:05.680 --> 05:20:20.360
to me, your attention is focused on my words, and

2084
05:20:20.520 --> 05:20:31.880
as my words guide you to focus on those parts

2085
05:20:32.000 --> 05:20:50.279
of your body, your focus increases, which actually calms your mind.

2086
05:20:58.240 --> 05:21:17.400
And when your mind calms down, your body relaxes. And

2087
05:21:17.560 --> 05:21:40.240
when your body calms down, your mind relaxes, and even

2088
05:21:40.400 --> 05:21:47.479
though if not really started to focus on your body,

2089
05:21:50.439 --> 05:22:01.479
you can already feel that heating energys reading through your body,

2090
05:22:06.400 --> 05:22:20.680
pushing out stress and tension, healing all the parts of

2091
05:22:20.799 --> 05:22:30.560
your body, including your skin, your bones, your blood, all

2092
05:22:30.639 --> 05:22:35.159
of your walkings inside your body, all of the muscles,

2093
05:22:36.560 --> 05:22:43.680
all of the fat, all of everything, every hair on

2094
05:22:43.799 --> 05:22:48.880
your body is filled with that healing energy.

2095
05:22:56.919 --> 05:22:57.599
And when your.

2096
05:22:57.560 --> 05:23:16.759
Brain fills without healing energy, the feeling of comfort relaxation

2097
05:23:20.639 --> 05:23:46.159
increases deeply, increases in a way that your mind starts

2098
05:23:46.439 --> 05:24:02.799
to fill, perhaps drowsing because it's not needed, and it

2099
05:24:03.080 --> 05:24:22.240
may start to drift if that's what's needed. So if

2100
05:24:22.279 --> 05:24:28.279
you're listening to this and what you need is deep relaxation,

2101
05:24:29.040 --> 05:24:35.279
that's what you get. If what you need is to

2102
05:24:35.520 --> 05:24:44.959
fall asleep naturally and easily, that your mind drifts, that's

2103
05:24:45.200 --> 05:24:59.000
also what will happen. Because by pressing that play button

2104
05:25:00.159 --> 05:25:07.560
the podcast and listening to me give permission your body

2105
05:25:07.759 --> 05:25:19.680
and your mind. In fact, you give the command to

2106
05:25:19.799 --> 05:25:21.680
your body and your mind to.

2107
05:25:21.799 --> 05:25:26.959
Relax deeply.

2108
05:25:30.520 --> 05:25:35.319
And to drift off to sleep if that's what you

2109
05:25:36.200 --> 05:25:51.720
want or need. And as I focus on the different

2110
05:25:51.880 --> 05:25:53.680
parts of your body.

2111
05:25:58.680 --> 05:25:59.240
You may.

2112
05:26:00.639 --> 05:26:03.040
Start just drift.

2113
05:26:06.799 --> 05:26:07.919
And then you come back.

2114
05:26:07.840 --> 05:26:13.040
Again and you hear me talkin and I'm focusing on

2115
05:26:13.200 --> 05:26:25.560
a different part of your body. You may find yourself drifting,

2116
05:26:28.360 --> 05:26:36.639
being realize you're drifting. Until you stop drifting, you're alert

2117
05:26:36.840 --> 05:26:43.680
again to my voice, focusing on a different part of

2118
05:26:43.759 --> 05:26:53.680
your body. Starts to Relaxee her deeper because I'm drifting.

2119
05:26:55.279 --> 05:26:57.880
It's basically here already.

2120
05:26:59.639 --> 05:27:00.439
In this sleep.

2121
05:27:00.599 --> 05:27:10.919
So and the more you drift, the longer you drift,

2122
05:27:12.520 --> 05:27:23.040
the longer you drift. Eventually, that drafting continues into sleep,

2123
05:27:28.040 --> 05:27:32.880
and that's the last you remember until you wake up

2124
05:27:37.360 --> 05:27:42.080
in your own time. When you experience the right.

2125
05:27:42.040 --> 05:27:43.159
Amount of sleep.

2126
05:27:44.000 --> 05:27:53.080
Fear because when you do and if you do sleep,

2127
05:27:53.319 --> 05:28:08.200
it's extremely pleasant, so relaxing, so deep heathing.

2128
05:28:10.159 --> 05:28:10.560
Sleep.

2129
05:28:20.720 --> 05:28:28.200
I feel so nice to relax scenes in your own.

2130
05:28:28.159 --> 05:28:38.240
Body in mind, you feel that heathing energy is spreading

2131
05:28:38.639 --> 05:28:54.159
through it, relaxing. Use so deeply, reaes, so so deeply.

2132
05:29:03.720 --> 05:29:28.520
Start to focus on your eyes, move down to Joe, down,

2133
05:29:29.200 --> 05:30:25.400
till back your shoulders. Oh yes, chest stun you and

2134
05:30:32.680 --> 05:31:37.799
spine your face, your ex face. You're spreading grimeside your body.

2135
05:31:39.759 --> 05:31:51.360
Feeling you up. Now let's focus again on parts of

2136
05:31:51.400 --> 05:32:05.439
your body. Okay, focusing this time on your forehead. Now

2137
05:32:05.799 --> 05:32:14.639
on your mouth, your lips, your tongue, a whole of

2138
05:32:14.720 --> 05:32:38.520
your mouth. Focus on your fingers. Maybe you could move

2139
05:32:38.599 --> 05:32:42.639
your fingers a little bits. You can focus on each

2140
05:32:43.000 --> 05:32:57.279
one individually, both hands, and even though it should focus

2141
05:32:57.360 --> 05:33:02.479
on both of your hands now it almost seemed to

2142
05:33:02.720 --> 05:33:11.439
just melt into one. May dis your right hands starting

2143
05:33:12.479 --> 05:33:17.759
left handed, no words.

2144
05:33:17.599 --> 05:33:18.119
As if.

2145
05:33:20.720 --> 05:33:21.959
Just mixed together.

2146
05:33:27.479 --> 05:33:38.799
Now focusing on your knees, just noticing how your knees help.

2147
05:33:55.479 --> 05:34:03.040
Now focusing on your elbows, like you said, by fewers

2148
05:34:09.400 --> 05:34:44.799
just absurd the failing fees now like you said, I'm sorry,

2149
05:34:46.880 --> 05:35:52.799
I can get back my energy aside echous. It's a

2150
05:35:52.919 --> 05:35:56.119
coup of sensations.

2151
05:35:56.520 --> 05:36:43.319
Ecossa.

2152
05:37:00.319 --> 05:37:18.759
Now you toos what if you faint being aware? Now

2153
05:37:21.119 --> 05:38:11.959
you toes feel right now? Notice said how are you

2154
05:38:12.200 --> 05:39:01.319
insire body feels? Noticing how your mind feels. Now, letting go,

2155
05:39:10.119 --> 05:39:52.240
letting go, letting go everything, letting go, letting go, lets go.

2156
05:39:56.279 --> 05:40:09.520
Off, every thing, e thing.

2157
05:40:15.799 --> 05:40:19.479
I'm going to start now, and I'd like you just

2158
05:40:19.520 --> 05:40:23.560
to first of all, just to see yourself lying down

2159
05:40:25.240 --> 05:40:30.799
on the message table lying on your front, your head

2160
05:40:30.880 --> 05:40:39.279
is supported, your arms are supported. Then you feel comfortable

2161
05:40:39.799 --> 05:40:48.959
and breathing is really easy, and you feel you feel

2162
05:40:49.040 --> 05:40:52.439
confident in how you look as well. So there's none

2163
05:40:52.479 --> 05:40:58.759
of that issue of body problems or shyness, because I'm

2164
05:40:58.759 --> 05:41:06.880
a professional and this is a therapy session, so none

2165
05:41:06.919 --> 05:41:09.240
of that stuff matters on whatsoever.

2166
05:41:13.119 --> 05:41:13.959
This is about you.

2167
05:41:16.840 --> 05:41:22.599
This is about how you feel and how you can

2168
05:41:24.040 --> 05:41:29.680
enjoy that sense of comfort and relaxation that comes from

2169
05:41:31.080 --> 05:41:37.240
letting go and allowing my hands my fingers to relax

2170
05:41:37.360 --> 05:41:48.720
you by messaging your body. So I want to start

2171
05:41:48.799 --> 05:41:53.599
off just by placing my hands on the back of

2172
05:41:53.680 --> 05:42:01.159
your head, just gently, just you can feel my hands feel.

2173
05:42:01.000 --> 05:42:02.119
Like really on you.

2174
05:42:06.599 --> 05:42:08.919
So you can maybe feel the warmth of my hands

2175
05:42:09.000 --> 05:42:14.439
on the back of your head. With my hands to

2176
05:42:14.520 --> 05:42:18.520
the side of your head, not pressing, but just holding

2177
05:42:18.680 --> 05:42:24.680
there very gently, maybe over your ears, and a little

2178
05:42:24.720 --> 05:42:29.520
bit on your face, so you can feel my hands

2179
05:42:31.599 --> 05:42:44.639
so you can become accustomed to them. And now put

2180
05:42:44.720 --> 05:42:47.080
my hands on the back of your head again and

2181
05:42:47.319 --> 05:42:54.279
gently let them slide down onto the back of your neck.

2182
05:43:01.880 --> 05:43:11.840
You can feel my hands gently stroking the back of

2183
05:43:11.919 --> 05:43:18.439
your neck. To start with just so you can get

2184
05:43:18.599 --> 05:43:23.080
used to the the feeling of my hands on your skin,

2185
05:43:23.720 --> 05:43:32.240
get accustomed to realize that you're safe and it's all good,

2186
05:43:32.560 --> 05:43:42.119
it's all fine, and I'm want to start gently messaging

2187
05:43:42.919 --> 05:43:53.040
the muscles in the back of your neck with both

2188
05:43:53.159 --> 05:44:06.080
hands and a very trusting situation really, because our necks

2189
05:44:06.200 --> 05:44:10.479
is so fragile and to have someone have their hands

2190
05:44:11.119 --> 05:44:16.119
around your neck in that way can sometimes be problematic

2191
05:44:16.240 --> 05:44:21.799
for people, which is why massages are quite good, because

2192
05:44:21.840 --> 05:44:30.439
it allows you to relax and to get in touch

2193
05:44:30.680 --> 05:44:48.240
with trust, to feel peaceful and calm. There's a massage

2194
05:44:48.520 --> 05:44:56.799
the sides of your neck, gently moving from the bottom

2195
05:44:56.840 --> 05:45:01.639
of your neck. It would be near where your shoulders start,

2196
05:45:01.680 --> 05:45:08.759
I guess, all the way up to your jaw, your ears,

2197
05:45:09.200 --> 05:45:14.959
kind of area that side of your neck. Of course,

2198
05:45:15.000 --> 05:45:17.520
it's a lot longer than the front of your neck.

2199
05:45:30.560 --> 05:45:37.599
The message in the back of your neck, especially that

2200
05:45:37.799 --> 05:45:47.240
area where perhaps we hold tension, and there's that area's message.

2201
05:45:47.639 --> 05:45:51.680
You can actually feel a sense of release in the

2202
05:45:51.759 --> 05:45:59.639
back of your neck, and maybe you can breathe it

2203
05:45:59.720 --> 05:46:05.720
out as well. Notice how it feels. Notice how you feel.

2204
05:46:15.599 --> 05:46:19.200
They're moving down to that area between your neck and

2205
05:46:19.279 --> 05:46:29.439
your shoulders, that musty area. Starting to message that area

2206
05:46:29.520 --> 05:46:33.840
on both sides. I mean, this would be the area

2207
05:46:33.959 --> 05:46:36.520
that a lot of people would message if they were

2208
05:46:36.560 --> 05:46:41.520
going to give you like a shoulder message. Even that's

2209
05:46:41.880 --> 05:46:45.319
not technically the shoulders, but it's all the muscles that

2210
05:46:45.479 --> 05:46:51.840
lead to the shoulders from the neck and again that

2211
05:46:52.000 --> 05:46:58.919
can hold tension and stress. And when massaged sometimes a

2212
05:46:59.040 --> 05:47:05.880
nice deep mess side is useful and you decide how

2213
05:47:06.119 --> 05:47:24.200
deep that message is. Just allow my knuckles just to

2214
05:47:24.360 --> 05:47:28.919
dig in to get to those muscles and to really

2215
05:47:32.360 --> 05:47:39.240
relaxed and all the time and being firm yet gentle

2216
05:47:40.680 --> 05:47:58.400
with you and just stroking down the area to your

2217
05:47:58.479 --> 05:48:10.279
actual shoulders, moving to the muscles of your shoulders and

2218
05:48:10.439 --> 05:48:15.200
maybe initially just pulling up the shoulders a little bit

2219
05:48:15.360 --> 05:48:18.639
off the table, just to give you a little bit

2220
05:48:18.680 --> 05:48:29.599
of a stretch, very gently, and you've got the muscles

2221
05:48:29.680 --> 05:48:41.880
at the front of your shoulders, the sides and the back. Again,

2222
05:48:42.159 --> 05:48:46.000
this is a part that can really take quite a

2223
05:48:46.040 --> 05:48:54.279
bit of pressure, quite a bit of needing if if

2224
05:48:54.360 --> 05:49:02.279
you wish to really release the tension to really get

2225
05:49:02.400 --> 05:49:09.000
into those muscles, and you can let your fingers in there,

2226
05:49:10.040 --> 05:49:15.639
make you feel really nice. Sometimes it's just being stroked

2227
05:49:15.759 --> 05:49:26.279
gently or being messaged quite strongly, can all be beneficial

2228
05:49:27.880 --> 05:49:46.000
to the real oversation with the muscles in your shoulders. Now,

2229
05:49:46.200 --> 05:49:55.639
as you move down your arms, we do one arm

2230
05:49:55.720 --> 05:50:05.680
at a time, Starting with your right arm. What I'll

2231
05:50:05.759 --> 05:50:10.319
do is I just lift your arm up, just hold

2232
05:50:10.400 --> 05:50:16.040
it to the side of you. I would still be attached,

2233
05:50:18.000 --> 05:50:32.720
and I just message the tops of your arms all

2234
05:50:32.759 --> 05:50:50.400
the way down to your forearms into your wrists, gently

2235
05:50:50.759 --> 05:51:03.400
messaging that part, the softer part, which is the under

2236
05:51:03.520 --> 05:51:09.080
part of the arm, which leads to the crease in

2237
05:51:09.200 --> 05:51:25.159
your elbow. The inside it's much more sensitive skin. Sometimes

2238
05:51:25.319 --> 05:51:35.840
just having that stroked feel really nice, pleasurable and relaxing.

2239
05:51:44.599 --> 05:51:55.159
Now moving down to your right hand, just holding your

2240
05:51:55.319 --> 05:52:07.319
hand in both of my head hands, just pressing gently

2241
05:52:08.479 --> 05:52:15.840
on the back of your hand, stretching your fingers ever

2242
05:52:16.000 --> 05:52:26.840
slightly at the same time pressing down and massaging each finger,

2243
05:52:34.880 --> 05:52:38.919
and then starting to massage the palms and their hand.

2244
05:52:45.599 --> 05:52:56.639
Just turning the hand gently, stretching it gently, and actually

2245
05:52:56.759 --> 05:53:04.279
having your hand held can really be an emotional experience sometimes,

2246
05:53:05.279 --> 05:53:10.119
even if it is a stranger, someone you don't know

2247
05:53:10.360 --> 05:53:15.680
very well, like a massage person or a therapist, maybe

2248
05:53:17.720 --> 05:53:31.360
because it's intimate. You can feel nice, you can feel safe.

2249
05:53:39.119 --> 05:53:42.080
And as I put that right arm back down where

2250
05:53:42.080 --> 05:53:50.319
it was, I did the same with your left arm,

2251
05:53:53.680 --> 05:54:03.439
exactly the same. Hig in the muscles and your arm

2252
05:54:04.000 --> 05:54:12.040
all the way down to your wrist, stroking the inside

2253
05:54:12.159 --> 05:54:21.599
of your arm, just being gentle or as firm as

2254
05:54:21.759 --> 05:54:42.479
you require, and then massaging your left hand, stretching the fingers,

2255
05:54:44.560 --> 05:55:03.919
gently massaging the palm of your left hand. You feel

2256
05:55:04.360 --> 05:55:32.159
so so relaxing, so comforting, and I'll just rest your

2257
05:55:32.279 --> 05:55:46.200
left arm back down. Start to message your back, the

2258
05:55:46.360 --> 05:55:57.880
biggest part of your body, starting at the top, starting

2259
05:55:57.959 --> 05:56:01.200
again where we already b F B and the area

2260
05:56:01.279 --> 05:56:05.840
at the top in between your shoulders near your neck.

2261
05:56:07.599 --> 05:56:12.040
Going back and massage in the area again, but this

2262
05:56:12.400 --> 05:56:25.919
time moving downwards, making it downward. Stroke to the middle

2263
05:56:25.959 --> 05:56:34.319
of your back, working from the outside inwards, massage in

2264
05:56:34.439 --> 05:56:46.360
that your back, but the outside of your back parts

2265
05:56:49.040 --> 05:57:01.919
where your arms would maybe rest against almost the path

2266
05:57:02.040 --> 05:57:14.919
that connects your front to your back, and just messaging

2267
05:57:15.119 --> 05:57:26.919
down firmly but gently, as firm as you want, moving down,

2268
05:57:27.119 --> 05:57:30.759
and then moving across a little bed, moving all the

2269
05:57:30.840 --> 05:57:38.720
way down again, be very gentle yet firm as you choose.

2270
05:57:45.119 --> 05:57:49.759
Eventually you get to the spine. We can message the

2271
05:57:49.959 --> 05:57:54.119
muscles and either side of your spine from the top

2272
05:57:54.200 --> 05:58:00.279
of your neck all the way down to your lower back.

2273
05:58:06.479 --> 05:58:12.560
We can do that a few times. Sometimes people would

2274
05:58:12.639 --> 05:58:19.360
use the knuckle or the you know, the two fingers

2275
05:58:19.439 --> 05:58:25.159
and just go either side of the spine. Almost just

2276
05:58:25.400 --> 05:58:28.520
push down, go all the way down to the bottom

2277
05:58:28.560 --> 05:58:37.040
of the spine, each time releasing tension and opening up

2278
05:58:37.680 --> 05:58:46.880
the body, stretching your body so that you feel more

2279
05:58:47.000 --> 05:59:04.360
relaxed but at the same time rejuvenated. And now I'm

2280
05:59:04.400 --> 05:59:08.080
going to move to one side, to your right side,

2281
05:59:12.919 --> 05:59:17.479
and from the bottom of your ribs to your pelvis,

2282
05:59:18.520 --> 05:59:24.759
I'm going to massage that area of your back. I'll

2283
05:59:24.880 --> 05:59:28.560
stretch over the other side and I'll pull the muscles

2284
05:59:29.159 --> 05:59:35.360
gently and massage and push from one end that side

2285
05:59:35.479 --> 05:59:39.439
or the way to my side to the middle of

2286
05:59:39.599 --> 05:59:45.200
fact to where your spine is, massaging that side of

2287
05:59:45.279 --> 05:59:52.080
your spine the opposite side to where I'm standing. It's

2288
05:59:52.159 --> 05:59:58.080
almost like kneading bread. There's that big area which is

2289
05:59:59.560 --> 06:00:09.880
firm yet lots there to message. Potentially one of the

2290
06:00:09.959 --> 06:00:16.599
most important places to actually have a message because you

2291
06:00:17.680 --> 06:00:23.080
feel it. You really feel the release and the pleasure

2292
06:00:24.439 --> 06:00:31.639
of having your lower back messaged. It releases so much

2293
06:00:32.200 --> 06:00:40.560
from your body that's not useful, starting a healing process

2294
06:00:42.200 --> 06:00:54.959
which will continue long after this recording is over. The

2295
06:00:55.159 --> 06:00:58.279
message in this part of your body not only feels

2296
06:00:58.439 --> 06:01:04.799
really good you, it's actually fun to do because it is,

2297
06:01:05.360 --> 06:01:10.360
as I said, like kneading bread, it's a part that

2298
06:01:10.439 --> 06:01:15.639
you can really get hold of and really massage deeply.

2299
06:01:17.919 --> 06:01:28.119
If that's your choice, then I'm going to move over

2300
06:01:28.240 --> 06:01:30.520
to the other side of your body and do the

2301
06:01:30.680 --> 06:01:42.479
same with the opposite part of your lower back, kneading

2302
06:01:42.680 --> 06:01:50.799
and massaging from your sides all the way to the

2303
06:01:50.919 --> 06:01:58.639
middle of your back where your spine is pressing and

2304
06:01:59.080 --> 06:02:09.720
kneading firm and gentle at the same time. It feels

2305
06:02:10.200 --> 06:02:22.680
so releasing this mixture of pleasure, comfort, release, calmness, relaxation

2306
06:02:24.119 --> 06:02:34.040
or mixed together. Plus there's that feeling from your stomach

2307
06:02:34.520 --> 06:02:39.479
as it's being stretched. Even though you're in your stomach now,

2308
06:02:40.119 --> 06:02:43.880
you can feel it being stretched because that whole area

2309
06:02:44.080 --> 06:02:55.119
is connected to your stomach. Now we're going to move

2310
06:02:55.439 --> 06:02:59.959
or move further up to your top of your boy

2311
06:03:00.840 --> 06:03:07.400
and I'm gonna do the same this time, starting with

2312
06:03:08.560 --> 06:03:14.119
your upper back. Put my hands forward over and massive

2313
06:03:14.240 --> 06:03:21.240
massage in that area up to your spine, from the

2314
06:03:21.439 --> 06:03:25.560
side of your body up to your spine to some

2315
06:03:25.720 --> 06:03:32.439
of that message area that muscle tissue or whatever fatty

2316
06:03:32.520 --> 06:03:37.759
tissue even will be possibly from your chest because it's

2317
06:03:37.799 --> 06:03:44.959
all connected, chest and the back connect together. I'm going

2318
06:03:45.040 --> 06:03:48.599
to be massaging and just pulling some of that skin

2319
06:03:49.919 --> 06:03:59.240
from your side up and massaging that area of your

2320
06:03:59.360 --> 06:04:07.799
upper back all the way to your spine. And then

2321
06:04:07.840 --> 06:04:10.599
I'll move down a bit and I'll continue with the

2322
06:04:10.720 --> 06:04:18.119
middle of your back, doing exactly the same thing as gentle,

2323
06:04:18.479 --> 06:04:31.639
as deep as you choose. Now, I'll move from the

2324
06:04:31.720 --> 06:04:36.520
other side again and do the exact same thing with

2325
06:04:36.759 --> 06:04:40.880
the top of your back on the other side, from

2326
06:04:46.000 --> 06:04:54.720
pretty much underneath your arm area really to your spine.

2327
06:05:00.240 --> 06:05:07.000
Continue in that all the way down, including your lower

2328
06:05:07.319 --> 06:05:24.840
your middle of your back. I'm gonna go to your thighs,

2329
06:05:26.159 --> 06:05:31.599
the backs of your thighs, and the sides of your thighs,

2330
06:05:35.880 --> 06:05:44.799
starting with your right leg. Massage in the back and

2331
06:05:44.959 --> 06:05:53.479
the sides of your thighs gently and firmly there's a

2332
06:05:53.599 --> 06:05:57.000
lot of muscles there. It's an area that can be

2333
06:05:57.159 --> 06:06:01.400
very tense at times and maybe needs a little bit

2334
06:06:01.479 --> 06:06:05.080
more pressure than the rest of the body that's up

2335
06:06:05.200 --> 06:06:15.360
to you. You can gently stroke the back of your

2336
06:06:15.479 --> 06:06:21.360
legs where you know, opposite your knee joint or underneath

2337
06:06:21.400 --> 06:06:34.360
your knee joint, very sensitive, gentle area, and then working

2338
06:06:34.520 --> 06:06:41.959
down to your calf muscles. Massage in your calf muscles

2339
06:06:42.840 --> 06:06:56.159
thoroughly and deeply, if you choose, using both hands fingers,

2340
06:06:56.680 --> 06:07:09.959
digging deep to your ankles and the back of your

2341
06:07:10.919 --> 06:07:16.919
back of your ankles. Just gently message in that area,

2342
06:07:22.400 --> 06:07:39.040
maybe lifting the leg and stretching a little bit. Moving

2343
06:07:39.799 --> 06:07:54.400
to the right foot, massaging the bottom of your feet

2344
06:07:58.759 --> 06:08:09.919
and the side of your feet gently but firm enough

2345
06:08:10.119 --> 06:08:20.880
so they don't tickle, and just allow the pleasure that

2346
06:08:21.000 --> 06:08:27.119
you get from having your feet massaged to just overtake

2347
06:08:27.240 --> 06:08:36.119
you as I continue to message your feet, the bottoms

2348
06:08:36.159 --> 06:08:45.880
of your feet, the sides, your arches, your heel. You

2349
06:08:45.959 --> 06:08:48.919
can put a lot of pressure into your heel and

2350
06:08:49.080 --> 06:08:54.000
it feels amazing, Yet the arches need to be a

2351
06:08:54.080 --> 06:09:05.799
bit more gentle. Stretching your toes gently and massage in

2352
06:09:05.959 --> 06:09:14.159
the bottoms of your toes with my fingers, each one individually.

2353
06:09:22.599 --> 06:09:26.439
Moving over to the left leg to do exactly the

2354
06:09:26.520 --> 06:09:36.880
same thing. Starting at the top of the thighs, work

2355
06:09:36.959 --> 06:09:41.560
in the back of the thighs and the sides, massaging

2356
06:09:41.759 --> 06:09:51.919
deeply and gently, a whole area, working all the way down.

2357
06:09:58.919 --> 06:10:04.680
And this is an area that maybe you could like

2358
06:10:04.799 --> 06:10:14.159
to spend more time relaxing and messaging. Perhaps if you wanted,

2359
06:10:14.319 --> 06:10:19.159
I could make a future recording wants spend more time

2360
06:10:19.319 --> 06:10:30.680
on one particular area. As you moved down to your

2361
06:10:30.799 --> 06:10:44.639
calf muscles, massagy and your calf muscles firmly and gently,

2362
06:10:50.360 --> 06:10:59.599
moving down your ankle into your feet, massage in backs

2363
06:10:59.680 --> 06:11:09.759
of your feet, the bottoms of your feet, stretching your

2364
06:11:09.880 --> 06:11:16.759
toes and message in each toe individually. And the feeling

2365
06:11:16.919 --> 06:11:23.040
of pleasure and release. The experience when you're having your

2366
06:11:23.159 --> 06:11:44.360
feet and massaged feels really good. Now she turn over

2367
06:11:44.599 --> 06:11:55.919
in your mind. Laying on your back's going to start

2368
06:11:55.959 --> 06:12:14.319
again your neck area, in your shoulders, just to get

2369
06:12:14.400 --> 06:12:24.119
back in touch with that area. And as you move up,

2370
06:12:31.959 --> 06:12:36.759
I can clean my hands, make them more fresh, because

2371
06:12:36.840 --> 06:12:46.000
now I'm gonna message your face simply starting off with

2372
06:12:46.119 --> 06:12:57.880
your forehead, your eyes are closed, I can just stretch

2373
06:12:59.159 --> 06:13:03.599
your eye. It's a little bit pushing up on your eyebrows,

2374
06:13:10.400 --> 06:13:23.200
just messaging around your scalp, massaging down your cheeks, around

2375
06:13:23.279 --> 06:13:35.880
your ears, into your chaw chiply the side of your neck,

2376
06:13:39.759 --> 06:13:58.439
your chin, and just moving down shut your neck down

2377
06:13:58.560 --> 06:14:05.880
to your chest, starting him by message in the very

2378
06:14:06.080 --> 06:14:14.560
top of your chest where the collar bone is. Give

2379
06:14:14.599 --> 06:14:26.360
a side of the collarbone, and then just message in

2380
06:14:26.520 --> 06:14:47.599
the hole of the chest, moving the chest around, because

2381
06:14:47.639 --> 06:14:52.319
it's quite a large area. You can move from one

2382
06:14:52.520 --> 06:15:03.279
side to the next. Move in my hands underneath pretty

2383
06:15:03.319 --> 06:15:12.919
much where your arms are, stretching up, stretching some of

2384
06:15:12.959 --> 06:15:20.959
the muscles of your back in the process, moving up

2385
06:15:22.159 --> 06:15:42.360
over your chest and then moving down again. Then allowing

2386
06:15:42.439 --> 06:15:49.520
my hands. They're just massage gently and slide down towards

2387
06:15:49.560 --> 06:15:57.599
your stomach, starting in the middle of your chest, and

2388
06:15:57.680 --> 06:16:04.360
then gradually my hands moving upon art and massaging and

2389
06:16:04.599 --> 06:16:14.119
sliding at the same time, moving down to just below

2390
06:16:14.159 --> 06:16:32.560
your ribcage, moving down, then messaging up again, giving your

2391
06:16:32.759 --> 06:16:43.200
chest all the attention that it needs to feel completely relaxed.

2392
06:16:50.520 --> 06:16:54.279
Remembering that I'm also going to be focusing on your

2393
06:16:54.560 --> 06:16:59.680
sides as well. An area that really doesn't get much

2394
06:16:59.759 --> 06:17:11.360
too engine It feels really good when it's massaged, just

2395
06:17:11.520 --> 06:17:19.159
stroking my hands down the sides of your body, just

2396
06:17:19.279 --> 06:17:22.520
below your arms all the way down to your hips.

2397
06:17:32.159 --> 06:17:38.200
Now move into your stomach area. I'm gonna stand on

2398
06:17:38.279 --> 06:17:40.840
one side of you like I did when I did

2399
06:17:40.880 --> 06:17:47.159
your luwer back. I'm gonna do a similar process of

2400
06:17:47.400 --> 06:18:02.159
just stretching the muscles from your side, gently massaging from

2401
06:18:02.240 --> 06:18:03.599
one side to the next.

2402
06:18:05.880 --> 06:18:06.360
Move in.

2403
06:18:08.919 --> 06:18:13.080
The whole area from below your ribs all the way

2404
06:18:13.200 --> 06:18:23.319
down to below your belly button, and I'm going to

2405
06:18:23.439 --> 06:18:26.799
move around to the other side of you and repeat that.

2406
06:18:33.400 --> 06:18:47.400
Process of relaxing, deeply, calmly. You feel loose, you feel free.

2407
06:18:49.799 --> 06:18:54.479
And there's something about having your stomach message that's different

2408
06:18:54.560 --> 06:19:01.360
from any other part because we do have a tendency

2409
06:19:02.000 --> 06:19:05.880
of holding a different kind of stress in her stomach

2410
06:19:07.319 --> 06:19:15.119
that we may not be aware of. As I now

2411
06:19:15.319 --> 06:19:23.560
message your stomach in front of your stomach, making circles

2412
06:19:25.040 --> 06:19:34.240
around your belly button, thing going the other way around.

2413
06:19:40.840 --> 06:19:47.319
The gentleness and a freedom that comes from feeling how

2414
06:19:47.439 --> 06:19:57.560
you're feeling. As I now move down the tops of

2415
06:19:57.680 --> 06:20:04.720
your thighs, muscles massaging them, and I can do this

2416
06:20:05.720 --> 06:20:13.959
to your legs at the same time, pressing down, massaging

2417
06:20:14.439 --> 06:20:20.040
deeply those muscles in your thighs, the front of your thighs,

2418
06:20:25.479 --> 06:20:31.040
and moving down to your knees, gently massaging your knees,

2419
06:20:36.279 --> 06:20:42.360
sliding down your shins, putting pressure on either side of

2420
06:20:42.439 --> 06:20:55.520
your shin gently, softly but firmly, moving down to your ankles,

2421
06:21:00.439 --> 06:21:10.080
stroking the tops of your feet, and then with each

2422
06:21:11.439 --> 06:21:16.880
foot in each hand, just gently messaging the whole of

2423
06:21:16.959 --> 06:21:25.759
the foot, the top, the bottom, your heel, your ankle,

2424
06:21:26.599 --> 06:21:38.919
your toes, messaging every part of your feet. Feels so good,

2425
06:21:39.680 --> 06:21:53.840
Just to let go and enjoy the process, Enjoy feeling

2426
06:21:56.360 --> 06:22:09.639
so deeply relaxed. So much comfort and so many feelings

2427
06:22:11.240 --> 06:22:25.880
become just from touching your skin. And you can just

2428
06:22:27.080 --> 06:22:37.200
lie there as long as you choose, enjoying the feeling

2429
06:22:38.560 --> 06:22:59.080
of deep comfort from being massaged by me. Enjoy feeling

2430
06:23:03.279 --> 06:23:20.680
deeply ra And all we're gonna do is blow out

2431
06:23:20.759 --> 06:23:36.919
some candles. In your mind, there are going to be

2432
06:23:37.000 --> 06:23:47.799
a hundred candles, and you're going to blow each one

2433
06:23:47.880 --> 06:23:59.000
out individually, one by one, starting at one hundred. As

2434
06:23:59.040 --> 06:24:10.720
I count down all the way down to one and

2435
06:24:10.840 --> 06:24:19.680
each time I say a number, you can imagine that

2436
06:24:19.880 --> 06:24:26.279
candle in front of you, and I'd like you to

2437
06:24:26.400 --> 06:24:45.759
actually physically generally blow that candle out, just so it's

2438
06:24:45.759 --> 06:24:57.279
not big blows, just a gentle, and that candle will extinguish.

2439
06:25:01.959 --> 06:25:06.560
And then I'll say the next number, So we moved down,

2440
06:25:09.759 --> 06:25:16.279
and you can just blow that one out as well.

2441
06:25:22.240 --> 06:25:30.759
And as we move down the numbers, you'll find yourself

2442
06:25:31.880 --> 06:25:34.639
feeding more and more relaxed.

2443
06:25:37.680 --> 06:25:38.439
If you need.

2444
06:25:40.000 --> 06:25:49.240
To sleep, you'll also find yourself becoming incredibly tired and sleepy.

2445
06:25:53.080 --> 06:26:01.080
In fact, you may struggle to blow out one hundred

2446
06:26:03.680 --> 06:26:22.279
of these candles less you feel more and more deeply relaxed,

2447
06:26:28.959 --> 06:26:46.959
more and more deeply tired. And the further you go down,

2448
06:26:49.599 --> 06:27:03.200
the more your mind starts to drift. You may find

2449
06:27:03.639 --> 06:27:18.040
that you stop listening to me after a while. And

2450
06:27:18.240 --> 06:27:22.400
even though there may be background sounds where you are,

2451
06:27:27.279 --> 06:27:33.439
you'll be aware of those sounds at the moment.

2452
06:27:38.439 --> 06:27:39.159
You may.

2453
06:27:42.439 --> 06:27:58.520
Start just not even notice them at all because they're unimportant.

2454
06:28:06.520 --> 06:28:11.720
Where I am, I've got the sounds of the birds,

2455
06:28:13.599 --> 06:28:19.240
there's horrors, the pigeon who likes to say hello sometimes,

2456
06:28:22.080 --> 06:28:30.520
and there's the old playue that goes by, maybe traffic

2457
06:28:30.840 --> 06:28:41.520
and trains in the distance, but none of that scene

2458
06:28:41.720 --> 06:28:56.080
is important whatsoever, or candles you blow out less important.

2459
06:28:57.599 --> 06:29:07.639
Anything is more candles you blow out.

2460
06:29:11.880 --> 06:29:28.680
The further seemed to move away from sounds, from general

2462
06:29:48.639 --> 06:29:59.680

Eight can do.

2506
07:27:47.400 --> 07:30:12.319
Can dohhhh, or let go of all of those thoughts, worries,

2507
07:30:12.639 --> 07:30:18.720
concerns about the past, thoughts about the future, and even

2508
07:30:20.200 --> 07:30:24.560
things you've been thinking about today. Just let it all

2509
07:30:24.639 --> 07:30:30.840
go because none of it is useful in this moment.

2510
07:30:35.759 --> 07:30:51.159
This is your opportunity to just focus on feeling relaxed,

2511
07:30:55.439 --> 07:31:01.880
allowing yourself to get in touch with that natural sense

2512
07:31:03.959 --> 07:31:12.080
of peace that we all have within us. It's available

2513
07:31:12.159 --> 07:31:17.000
for everyone. It just sometimes takes a little bit of

2514
07:31:17.119 --> 07:31:24.520
effort to set up the right time and place in

2515
07:31:24.799 --> 07:31:31.040
order for you to just let go. Because when you

2516
07:31:31.240 --> 07:31:39.000
do decide to let go and relax, that's what your

2517
07:31:39.040 --> 07:31:47.759
body starts to do because you've chosen, You've chosen to

2518
07:31:48.200 --> 07:31:55.319
just allow your body to unwind, and your mind starts

2519
07:31:55.400 --> 07:32:03.639
to slow down and nice feeling. It's a nice feeling

2520
07:32:03.799 --> 07:32:08.360
at the beginning, just to know that you have chosen

2521
07:32:09.840 --> 07:32:19.080
to decide to relax deeply, and because you've made that decision,

2522
07:32:20.880 --> 07:32:27.919
your body will just follow suit. Because sometimes all the

2523
07:32:28.080 --> 07:32:32.799
muscles in your body need is just permission from you

2524
07:32:33.880 --> 07:32:42.360
to relax. Because so often we're busy, we're going from

2525
07:32:42.439 --> 07:32:46.439
here to there, we're walking around and we're doing stuff,

2526
07:32:48.759 --> 07:32:55.080
and the body doesn't have any time or space to

2527
07:32:55.279 --> 07:33:02.240
really relax deeply, so it kind of waits for you

2528
07:33:02.560 --> 07:33:11.720
to lead the way, waits for your permission. And when

2529
07:33:11.759 --> 07:33:18.520
you do give your permission, when you give to say so,

2530
07:33:18.720 --> 07:33:26.520
when you say okay, it's time for your body to

2531
07:33:26.720 --> 07:33:35.439
let go completely and relax totally, your body just follows.

2532
07:33:38.599 --> 07:33:43.880
So like a breath of relief. Ah good, I can

2533
07:33:43.919 --> 07:33:51.000
now relax. That feeling at the end of a day

2534
07:33:51.080 --> 07:33:55.400
of very physical day that you may experience in the past,

2535
07:33:56.520 --> 07:33:59.040
where you get home and you just sit down on

2536
07:33:59.159 --> 07:34:02.919
a chair, maybe you kick your shoes off, and our

2537
07:34:03.319 --> 07:34:09.360
ar feels so nice. Know that you don't have to

2538
07:34:09.439 --> 07:34:13.880
get up again for a little while at least, and

2539
07:34:13.959 --> 07:34:16.599
if you choose, you can just sit there for maybe

2540
07:34:16.680 --> 07:34:30.080
an hour to feels blissful. And just by sitting down

2541
07:34:30.439 --> 07:34:35.080
like that, your body knows that it's time to relax.

2542
07:34:36.720 --> 07:34:42.560
Your body has been given permission from you because it's

2543
07:34:42.639 --> 07:34:52.840
a mindset in your mind, you're prepared to let go

2544
07:34:53.000 --> 07:35:03.119
of everything and just completely allow all the stress of

2545
07:35:03.200 --> 07:35:15.119
your body to evaporate. Any tensions can just gradually vanish.

2546
07:35:21.599 --> 07:35:33.319
It's almost like magic, really, because that sense of relaxation

2547
07:35:33.639 --> 07:35:39.599
in your body. It's a very natural state. It's not

2548
07:35:39.799 --> 07:35:44.639
something unusual. It may feel unusual when you first start

2549
07:35:44.720 --> 07:35:49.400
to relax. You if you haven't really spent a lot

2550
07:35:49.439 --> 07:35:53.880
of time focusing and giving yourself this space to let

2551
07:35:53.959 --> 07:36:01.439
go completely and relax may seem almost alien, but it isn't.

2552
07:36:03.000 --> 07:36:08.880
It's actually the most natural thing in the world to

2553
07:36:09.080 --> 07:36:18.880
let go completely, to relax totally, the most natural thing

2554
07:36:19.200 --> 07:36:31.360
in the world to allow yourself to feel really calm

2555
07:36:31.799 --> 07:36:38.799
in your mind. And it is almost like a literal unwinding.

2556
07:36:42.479 --> 07:36:47.959
It's like you press a button and all the tension

2557
07:36:48.319 --> 07:36:54.119
just releases, and it's like a wheel, like a cog,

2558
07:36:55.119 --> 07:36:58.639
like the inside of the clock, just unwinding. And it's

2559
07:36:58.680 --> 07:37:02.439
almost like you could see either the little wind up

2560
07:37:03.439 --> 07:37:08.279
not that's used, just going the opposite way that you

2561
07:37:08.520 --> 07:37:15.000
choose to wind it up, and the energy that fremetic

2562
07:37:16.240 --> 07:37:24.959
stress for energy gradually winding down, losing its power.

2563
07:37:25.919 --> 07:37:27.200
Losing its strength.

2564
07:37:29.680 --> 07:37:38.959
As a sense of relaxation becomes stronger and deeper, and

2565
07:37:39.279 --> 07:37:48.200
you may find a more relaxed you feel your mind

2566
07:37:48.680 --> 07:37:57.959
starts to wonder, maybe you seem to stop listening to

2567
07:37:58.080 --> 07:38:04.000
me for a while. Your mind goes somewhere else and

2568
07:38:04.080 --> 07:38:10.159
then you realize you're listening to me again, and that's

2569
07:38:10.360 --> 07:38:18.919
just your mind to drifting to sleep, which is quite natural,

2570
07:38:20.479 --> 07:38:28.400
because sometimes when we're stressed and tense, we're not may

2571
07:38:28.439 --> 07:38:32.919
I actually be aware of what we need or we

2572
07:38:33.080 --> 07:38:41.720
physically your emotionally need in this moment. But when you

2573
07:38:42.479 --> 07:38:49.599
allow your body and mind to relax completely, and you

2574
07:38:49.759 --> 07:38:58.799
let go of all thoughts, concerns, worries, ideas, all let

2575
07:38:58.919 --> 07:39:08.080
them go, allowing them to drop onto the floor, you

2576
07:39:08.360 --> 07:39:17.279
start to get in touch with the feelings of such relaxation.

2577
07:39:21.919 --> 07:39:28.599
Feels so nice to be in touch with the calmness

2578
07:39:30.520 --> 07:39:39.520
and the different body parts as they become looser and looser.

2579
07:39:43.560 --> 07:39:52.439
Believe in your breathing scenes easier and more natural, effortless

2580
07:39:55.759 --> 07:40:01.159
as that cool ads through your mouth or nose into

2581
07:40:01.279 --> 07:40:12.119
your lungs, breathing in comfort and relaxation, and then just

2582
07:40:12.279 --> 07:40:21.560
breathing out any excess remain intentional stress from every part

2583
07:40:21.840 --> 07:40:22.840
of your body.

2584
07:40:24.080 --> 07:40:24.680
And mind.

2585
07:40:28.360 --> 07:40:33.400
As you start to focus on your mind, maybe you

2586
07:40:33.720 --> 07:40:41.799
notice that things that come to a standstill maybe just

2587
07:40:42.520 --> 07:40:50.520
much much lower than before because your mind is not

2588
07:40:50.959 --> 07:41:01.560
really needed when listening to my voice, which allows your

2589
07:41:01.720 --> 07:41:10.159
mind to relax, just as deeply as your body, and

2590
07:41:10.279 --> 07:41:23.119
that's synchronicity between the relaxation of your body relaxation of

2591
07:41:23.319 --> 07:41:34.919
your mind. Let you know that feeling completely calm, loose,

2592
07:41:35.279 --> 07:41:36.799
and relaxed.

2593
07:41:38.639 --> 07:41:39.639
Really is.

2594
07:41:41.439 --> 07:41:57.439
A great healing experience fear and has so many positive

2595
07:41:57.759 --> 07:42:05.599
benefits for your body and mind and your life. To

2596
07:42:05.720 --> 07:42:14.279
be able to let go everything and to relax completely,

2597
07:42:16.200 --> 07:42:24.360
you know, all parts of your body and mind, even

2598
07:42:24.439 --> 07:42:40.080
your boness relaxed, all your muscles are rised, even the

2599
07:42:40.439 --> 07:42:53.759
skin that covers your body is relaxed. Every hair.

2600
07:42:56.720 --> 07:42:59.919
That you have is also.

2601
07:43:01.799 --> 07:43:18.959
Deeply relaxed. Then your brain really starts to feel the benefits.

2602
07:43:20.240 --> 07:43:20.560
Of this.

2603
07:43:22.159 --> 07:43:33.799
Heating relaxation. And as you focus on the in the

2604
07:43:34.000 --> 07:43:39.040
side of your scalp where your brain is, you can

2605
07:43:39.319 --> 07:43:47.279
start to realize and notice the benefits of your brain

2606
07:43:48.400 --> 07:44:02.479
relaxing deeply. And as your brain continues to relax sends

2607
07:44:02.880 --> 07:44:11.479
those messages to the rest of your body and to

2608
07:44:11.720 --> 07:44:36.759
mind to re relax more deepate, relaxily, more completely, letting

2609
07:44:37.000 --> 07:44:48.759
go of any remaining thoughts of consers, allow them just

2610
07:44:48.959 --> 07:44:54.560
to drop onto the floor because they are long and

2611
07:44:54.840 --> 07:45:08.599
necessary in this moment, this moment of deep relaxation and calmness,

2612
07:45:10.959 --> 07:45:37.599

and be easeful. Your brain feels so light, that's so healthy.

2615
07:46:15.279 --> 07:46:25.479
That sense of deep deep comfort really does allow you

2616
07:46:29.159 --> 07:46:40.919
to enjoy those ever increasing sensations of comfort that are

2617
07:46:41.119 --> 07:46:54.360

Such peace and comfort growing all all the time, Such

2628
07:49:34.319 --> 07:49:47.959
peace and comfort spreading through your body, your mind deeper

2629
07:49:48.360 --> 07:50:03.240
and deepert, such comfort spreading and sinking the bird into

2630
07:50:03.639 --> 07:50:14.520
airy muscle of your body, so that you feel amazing,

2631
07:50:17.560 --> 07:50:38.560
so relaxed, so piece, so so relax and PIACEI letting

2632
07:50:39.119 --> 07:50:54.520
go everything. I'm gonna do a body scan focusing on firstly,

2633
07:50:54.680 --> 07:50:59.400
how you feel in your body. Not trying to change

2634
07:51:00.119 --> 07:51:05.720
how you feel, not trying to relax, not trying to

2635
07:51:05.919 --> 07:51:13.080
move away from any discomfort or stress or tension. Just accepting,

2636
07:51:14.599 --> 07:51:19.720
observing and accepting how you feel in the different parts

2637
07:51:19.799 --> 07:51:26.439
of your body, just allowing yourself to be exactly as

2638
07:51:26.560 --> 07:51:38.000
you are, to notice to get in touch with how

2639
07:51:38.080 --> 07:51:45.040
you actually feel in this moment. So I'm going to

2640
07:51:45.159 --> 07:51:56.479
start off by focusing on your hands. Just be aware

2641
07:51:56.520 --> 07:52:04.959
of your hands, like you to move your hands around,

2642
07:52:06.400 --> 07:52:11.959
just maybe move your fingers a little bit. I've been

2643
07:52:12.080 --> 07:52:18.119
in closing your hands very gently, just so th you

2644
07:52:18.319 --> 07:52:26.159
can get in touch with how your hands and your

2645
07:52:26.319 --> 07:52:47.680
fingers feel, very very slow movements. Focusing now on your feet,

2646
07:52:51.759 --> 07:52:55.040
and if you can just do kind of an equivalent

2647
07:52:55.759 --> 07:52:59.959
with your feet is you've just done with your hands,

2648
07:53:01.439 --> 07:53:10.319
Maybe turn in your ankles, moving your feet around, moving

2649
07:53:10.439 --> 07:53:23.959
your toes gently, very very gently, and very slowly, noticing

2650
07:53:24.439 --> 07:53:39.080
how your feet feel in this moment. Focusing now on

2651
07:53:39.200 --> 07:53:47.240
your eyes, I'd like you to just focus on your eyelids.

2652
07:53:49.680 --> 07:53:52.720
Maybe you can open and close your eyes a couple

2653
07:53:52.759 --> 07:53:57.880
of times to really get in touch with how you

2654
07:53:58.080 --> 07:54:04.080
feel when you do close your eye. The muscle changes

2655
07:54:06.439 --> 07:54:12.319
in your eyes when you do close them, maybe raising

2656
07:54:12.439 --> 07:54:21.520
your eyebrows, it stretches the tops of your eyes, perhaps

2657
07:54:21.720 --> 07:54:29.680
squinting your eyes, scrunching up your eyes, just so you

2658
07:54:29.799 --> 07:54:39.439
can heally get in touch with all aspects of how

2659
07:54:41.240 --> 07:54:43.000
your eyes feel.

2660
07:54:45.400 --> 07:54:45.880
Right now.

2661
07:54:55.240 --> 07:55:01.240
Now focusing on your thighs, then you know, it just

2662
07:55:01.279 --> 07:55:09.639
starts you to gently tense your thighs, just very very gently,

2663
07:55:12.000 --> 07:55:22.639
just enough so you can become more attuned to the

2664
07:55:23.919 --> 07:55:32.400
physical sensation of your upper legs, the front of your thighs,

2665
07:55:32.680 --> 07:55:43.720
and the backs of your thighs. Noticing and observing how

2666
07:55:46.080 --> 07:56:01.119
your thighs feel right now, moving your focus to the

2667
07:56:01.240 --> 07:56:07.759
back of your neck, just noticing the back of your

2668
07:56:07.880 --> 07:56:14.240
neck the muscles, and of course they lead to the

2669
07:56:14.520 --> 07:56:18.919
side of your neck. They also lead to the top

2670
07:56:19.000 --> 07:56:25.319
of your back, which leads to your shoulders. So as

2671
07:56:25.360 --> 07:56:31.200
your focus on the back of your neck, maybe you

2672
07:56:31.360 --> 07:56:38.000
can move your head gently upwards as if you're looking up,

2673
07:56:39.959 --> 07:56:45.599
Maybe moving your head down as if you're looking down.

2674
07:56:48.720 --> 07:56:53.639
Perhaps moving your head side to side, right to left,

2675
07:56:55.520 --> 07:57:06.799
but only very slow, very gently. I'm not trying to

2676
07:57:07.200 --> 07:57:18.080
force anything. It has to be very very gentle, just

2677
07:57:18.720 --> 07:57:20.000
so you can.

2678
07:57:21.560 --> 07:57:23.159
Be more.

2679
07:57:24.799 --> 07:57:33.400
In touch with the feelings, with the sensations of the

2680
07:57:33.680 --> 07:57:42.560
physical sensations of how on the back of your neck feels.

2681
07:57:44.319 --> 07:57:52.840
Right now, as we.

2682
07:57:54.840 --> 07:57:56.479
Now focus.

2683
07:57:58.720 --> 07:58:03.959
On the tops of your arms, the parts where your

2684
07:58:04.119 --> 07:58:09.240
biceps and your triceps are between your elbow and your shoulders.

2685
07:58:13.040 --> 07:58:17.919
To focus on those parts on tops of your arms,

2686
07:58:20.119 --> 07:58:27.680
you may like to just tense them, but very very

2687
07:58:27.840 --> 07:58:37.439
gently and slowly. See you know, straining or putting any

2688
07:58:38.720 --> 07:58:48.639
pressure whatsoever on your arms. It's just slowly you can

2689
07:58:51.279 --> 07:58:58.479
gain more of a sense of how your upper arms

2690
07:59:00.080 --> 07:59:01.400
are feeling.

2691
07:59:03.200 --> 07:59:04.479
In this moment.

2692
07:59:07.880 --> 07:59:18.240
Just notice them as you gently, very gently and slowly

2693
07:59:20.000 --> 07:59:30.959
tighten the muscles and then let go. Notice how the

2694
07:59:31.159 --> 07:59:45.919
tops of your arms feel right now, as in now

2695
07:59:46.599 --> 07:59:56.840
focus on your stomach, the area the lower aptomen area

2696
07:59:57.520 --> 08:00:05.919
below your belly button, moving all the way down to

2697
08:00:06.040 --> 08:00:16.639
your hips, just above your grind. Maybe you're able to

2698
08:00:18.080 --> 08:00:26.880
tense these muscles in the area very very gently.

2699
08:00:29.919 --> 08:00:31.000
And slowly.

2700
08:00:36.680 --> 08:00:41.080
If that's a difficult thing to do, maybe you can

2701
08:00:41.279 --> 08:00:51.919
just move your body, pushing your stomach up, maybe moving

2702
08:00:52.000 --> 08:00:57.200
a little bit to a side using your hips, just

2703
08:00:57.759 --> 08:01:00.439
so you get or.

2704
08:01:02.119 --> 08:01:03.319
In tune.

2705
08:01:04.759 --> 08:01:14.599
With how your lower abdomen area is feeling.

2706
08:01:16.959 --> 08:01:26.200
In this moment, just noticing.

2707
08:01:27.080 --> 08:01:36.520
The physical sensations your lower abdomen.

2708
08:01:46.840 --> 08:01:47.040
Has.

2709
08:01:47.400 --> 08:02:00.639
Move your attention to your mouth. Notice in your lips

2710
08:02:02.599 --> 08:02:11.159
and then inside your mouth, your teeth, your guns, your tongue,

2711
08:02:20.759 --> 08:02:29.360
Just noticing how your tongue and your mouth feels. It

2712
08:02:29.520 --> 08:02:38.520
may help by moving your tongue around your mouth, moving

2713
08:02:38.599 --> 08:02:46.000
it to your left, maybe pressing it gently against the

2714
08:02:46.240 --> 08:02:52.439
side of your mouth, and then to the right, gently

2715
08:02:52.959 --> 08:02:59.639
to the side of your mouth, perhaps pressing up against

2716
08:02:59.720 --> 08:03:07.759
the top of your mouth, and then down gently against

2717
08:03:07.880 --> 08:03:18.360
the bottom of your mouth, always very slowly and a

2718
08:03:18.959 --> 08:03:23.200
very very gentle.

2719
08:03:27.599 --> 08:03:28.759
So that you can.

2720
08:03:32.360 --> 08:03:44.680
Be aware of how you feel in your mouth area.

2721
08:03:55.959 --> 08:04:16.520
Now going to focus on your wrists, and I'll ask

2722
08:04:16.680 --> 08:04:25.319
you to maybe just routine your wrists by moving your

2723
08:04:25.520 --> 08:04:38.439
hands in a circular motion very gently and slowly, just.

2724
08:04:40.200 --> 08:04:41.599
So can.

2725
08:04:47.279 --> 08:05:06.319
Feel the sensations that you are currently it experience in purists.

2726
08:05:10.400 --> 08:05:18.919
Perhaps move in your hands up and down the game

2727
08:05:20.240 --> 08:06:00.279
very very chaplain and slowly, very che so slow out.

2728
08:06:02.720 --> 08:06:16.919
Start to observe your lower back. There are bad part

2729
08:06:17.279 --> 08:06:34.479
is just above your hips where your coxis are the

2730
08:06:34.840 --> 08:06:41.720
whole area which also really does include the signs of

2731
08:06:41.840 --> 08:06:52.639
your body because those muscles are very much connected. There's

2732
08:06:52.720 --> 08:06:59.680
those muscles also move into your hip area, connecting to

2733
08:06:59.840 --> 08:07:16.720
your buttics side of your hips, and if you're physically

2734
08:07:18.279 --> 08:07:27.119
able to do so, maybe you can very gently just

2735
08:07:27.720 --> 08:07:41.240
move your body eviss slightly, very slowly from side to side,

2736
08:07:44.959 --> 08:08:01.799
just enough to engage how you feel your lawer back.

2737
08:08:09.400 --> 08:08:26.479
Perhaps elve your hips gently up and down, gently and slowly.

2738
08:08:29.119 --> 08:08:30.520
In orders.

2739
08:08:31.840 --> 08:08:43.759
Re be in touch with the physical sensations of your

2740
08:08:43.919 --> 08:09:13.439
law back. As we know, your attention to your jaw,

2741
08:09:16.759 --> 08:09:22.360
the area from your chin all the way up so

2742
08:09:22.639 --> 08:09:39.240
near where your ears are, all of your jaw, you

2743
08:09:39.360 --> 08:09:48.200
can just it's okay to do so gently open your

2744
08:09:48.319 --> 08:10:01.400
mouth nor wide, no stretcher, just very gently and slowly

2745
08:10:02.520 --> 08:10:13.319
open in your mouth, closing your mouthy gently.

2746
08:10:15.119 --> 08:10:16.840
And slowly.

2747
08:10:25.919 --> 08:10:39.599
So you can be in touch with how your jaw feels.

2748
08:10:43.000 --> 08:11:25.479
Now like to sing down your chest around You don't

2749
08:11:25.680 --> 08:11:33.040
need to do anything to move your chest because it

2750
08:11:33.319 --> 08:11:46.119
moves every time you breathe. It moves very gently and

2751
08:11:46.799 --> 08:12:04.360
slowly quutomatically with each breath you tape as your focus

2752
08:12:04.959 --> 08:12:51.479
on your chest fils when you breathe, live in your

2753
08:12:51.759 --> 08:13:06.479
focus to your forms with your elbows. Maybe you're able

2754
08:13:06.919 --> 08:13:11.520
to very gently.

2755
08:13:12.919 --> 08:13:15.119
And slowly.

2756
08:13:16.799 --> 08:13:25.360
Tense the muscles in your forearms, and when you do that,

2757
08:13:25.840 --> 08:13:49.400
you can feel your elbows as well, very gently and slowly,

2758
08:13:57.840 --> 08:14:29.119
gently and softly observing your forearms and del bas no

2759
08:14:38.119 --> 08:14:56.759
focus the rest of your back, your upper back and

2760
08:14:57.119 --> 08:14:58.200
the middle.

2761
08:14:59.400 --> 08:15:01.080
The or your back.

2762
08:15:13.000 --> 08:15:24.040
Again, this part of your body moves also every time

2763
08:15:24.360 --> 08:15:39.919
you breed. You may not notice that usually makes you

2764
08:15:40.119 --> 08:15:46.599
observe your upper back in the middle of your back,

2765
08:15:50.360 --> 08:15:57.840
you can really feel that gentle.

2766
08:16:03.159 --> 08:16:04.119
And it's.

2767
08:16:45.560 --> 08:16:59.200
In your focus into your hip area. But as bray,

2768
08:17:02.040 --> 08:17:08.200
there's a muscle with a nice bones in your midsection.

2769
08:17:35.799 --> 08:17:55.759
Just noticing how your hips feel. Right now, you can

2770
08:17:58.319 --> 08:18:11.959
very very gently use your hips. Maybe sighed the side

2771
08:18:13.439 --> 08:18:42.119
very gently and so yeah, Harry, gently.

2772
08:18:48.479 --> 08:18:49.319
Softly.

2773
08:18:57.159 --> 08:19:20.400
It's everything starts to slow down, including the thoughts in

2774
08:19:20.520 --> 08:19:30.479
your mind and your mind itself just starts to gradually.

2775
08:19:32.479 --> 08:19:38.959
It doesn't have to be instant, but just gradually starting to.

2776
08:19:40.360 --> 08:19:49.159
It's almost like time is storing chin. It's a slower

2777
08:19:49.319 --> 08:19:57.200
pace to maybe what you're used to in your day

2778
08:19:57.279 --> 08:20:19.279
to day life. It's a slower movement of energy, very

2779
08:20:23.680 --> 08:20:32.119
small movements which make up the larger movements, which is

2780
08:20:32.159 --> 08:20:40.159
always the case. When you move your hand, it might

2781
08:20:40.319 --> 08:20:44.200
seem like it's one movement, but it's lots of minute

2782
08:20:44.919 --> 08:20:56.000
different muscles moving in accordance with each other. And what

2783
08:20:56.360 --> 08:21:09.360
happens in this base that we're sharing is we move from.

2784
08:21:12.080 --> 08:21:14.720
That big.

2785
08:21:19.159 --> 08:21:36.200
Movement into those smaller movements. Starting to focus on how

2786
08:21:36.319 --> 08:21:43.599
your body feels, not just as a whole, not just oh,

2787
08:21:43.680 --> 08:21:48.200
i'm feeling this way. I'm feeling stressed or tense, or

2788
08:21:48.680 --> 08:21:53.880
I'm feeling relaxed and calm. I'm feeling this way, I'm

2789
08:21:53.919 --> 08:22:05.360
feeling that way. Starting to notice the your body begins

2790
08:22:05.439 --> 08:22:21.520
to present to you small feelings around your body, small

2791
08:22:22.040 --> 08:22:38.919
physical sensations in your legs, whether pleasurable or not. Maybe

2792
08:22:41.319 --> 08:22:47.880
resisting the temptation to label them or to judge them

2793
08:22:49.360 --> 08:22:55.400
those feelings, just thinking them, thinking about them is just

2794
08:22:55.680 --> 08:23:12.599
being neutral, just feelings, not being particularly concerned, but just

2795
08:23:13.000 --> 08:23:28.439
noticing what your body is telling you. Feelings in your arms,

2796
08:23:31.439 --> 08:23:36.400
instead of feeling the hole of the arm, maybe notice

2797
08:23:36.639 --> 08:23:49.479
those individual feelings, all those different muscles and the skin,

2798
08:23:52.720 --> 08:23:58.560
the hairs of your arms, all the internal parts of

2799
08:23:58.639 --> 08:24:14.919
your arms, the veins, the bones. Just being aware of

2800
08:24:18.040 --> 08:24:24.479
maybe your elbow on your right arm has a certain feeling.

2801
08:24:26.560 --> 08:24:40.279
Maybe your left wrist also has its own individual physical sensation.

2802
08:24:52.720 --> 08:24:59.400
What about your forearm on your right arm, your right forearm,

2803
08:25:06.759 --> 08:25:12.840
there may not be any particular feeling that you could

2804
08:25:12.919 --> 08:25:20.799
even give a name to, may not feel like anything

2805
08:25:21.799 --> 08:25:32.560
other than just a feeling. Yeah, it's there. The feelings

2806
08:25:32.639 --> 08:25:38.639
in your shoulders, perhaps your shoulders when you think about them,

2807
08:25:39.840 --> 08:25:44.119
kind of almost like they're the same, you know, the

2808
08:25:44.240 --> 08:25:49.319
same feeling, almost like both of your shoulders are just

2809
08:25:49.520 --> 08:26:02.720
one thing. Of course they're not. And when you focus

2810
08:26:02.919 --> 08:26:08.319
on your left shoulder and then on your right shoulder,

2811
08:26:10.360 --> 08:26:14.840
maybe find that you move the muscles a little bit,

2812
08:26:16.400 --> 08:26:31.200
maybe tense the muscles gently, noticing the difference in each shoulder.

2813
08:26:42.639 --> 08:26:58.479
Your lower back, the left side of your lower back

2814
08:26:58.680 --> 08:27:10.080
and the right side of your lower back, of course

2815
08:27:10.200 --> 08:27:22.400
that connection to your buttocks and to your hips, and

2816
08:27:22.560 --> 08:27:35.919
also moving up into the middle of your back. And

2817
08:27:36.119 --> 08:27:40.680
sometimes like right now, actually when I focus on their part,

2818
08:27:42.040 --> 08:27:46.439
when I focused on my buttocks and then I focused

2819
08:27:46.479 --> 08:27:50.599
on the middle of my back, I almost felt like

2820
08:27:50.799 --> 08:27:55.560
the muscles in my lower back were being stretched very gently,

2821
08:28:00.319 --> 08:28:05.599
just stretched a little bit, even though I wasn't doing

2822
08:28:05.680 --> 08:28:14.479
anything to try to stretch your lower back. It just

2823
08:28:14.560 --> 08:28:26.840
seemed to happen. The feeling of very gently stretching your

2824
08:28:26.919 --> 08:28:46.040
lower back comes along. I have feeling in your chest,

2825
08:28:53.639 --> 08:29:07.040
just noticing what sensations you are experiencing in your chest

2826
08:29:07.319 --> 08:29:23.599
right now. And there's so much of the chest. Obviously

2827
08:29:23.639 --> 08:29:27.279
there's the collar bone leading to the chest. You've got

2828
08:29:27.319 --> 08:29:35.919
the chest bone, You've got the muscles in your chest.

2829
08:29:38.720 --> 08:29:44.799
Of course, if you're female, there's possibly the breasts. If

2830
08:29:44.799 --> 08:29:52.959
you're male, you've got the different well why not that

2831
08:29:53.119 --> 08:30:00.599
different these days, But there may be more muscles at

2832
08:30:00.639 --> 08:30:06.840
the top of the chest, but at the side underneath

2833
08:30:08.000 --> 08:30:10.840
it's pretty much the same. Whether you're a man or

2834
08:30:10.840 --> 08:30:17.279
a woman. There's muscles there, muscles that stretch out to

2835
08:30:17.439 --> 08:30:22.360
your back as well as breast tissue stretches and moves

2836
08:30:22.400 --> 08:30:29.759
into your back. To just being aware of your chest,

2837
08:30:38.680 --> 08:31:05.759
being with whatever feeling there is in your chest. And

2838
08:31:05.880 --> 08:31:13.319
when I noticed that, I focus on my chest, I

2839
08:31:13.599 --> 08:31:18.560
feel it in my back, my upper back. I mean,

2840
08:31:18.639 --> 08:31:21.560
I guess the obvious reason would be because you know

2841
08:31:21.599 --> 08:31:32.319
I'm breathe in in then it stretches my chest and

2842
08:31:32.680 --> 08:31:46.560
my back at the same time it feels it feels okay,

2843
08:31:53.119 --> 08:31:58.000
it doesn't feel I got a little bit of pain

2844
08:31:58.080 --> 08:32:04.720
in my right chest, a little bit, not pain, but

2845
08:32:04.840 --> 08:32:15.119
little discomfort. Maybe stiffness possibly, I don't know. I notice

2846
08:32:15.159 --> 08:32:22.799
my shoulders are also wanting to flex for some reason.

2847
08:32:25.000 --> 08:32:32.400
I think that's probably part of my upper back, that

2848
08:32:32.599 --> 08:32:37.520
connection between my shoulders and my upper back, because I

2849
08:32:37.560 --> 08:32:42.560
can move my shoulders and stretch the muscles in my back,

2850
08:32:45.040 --> 08:32:51.560
moving the shoulders backwards or up, which then moves I

2851
08:32:51.639 --> 08:33:07.759
think it's the scapulous in your back. It feels quite nice. Actually,

2852
08:33:13.119 --> 08:33:16.279
a good thing about this is you can, if you

2853
08:33:16.439 --> 08:33:30.360
want to, you can just flex or stimulate the various

2854
08:33:30.599 --> 08:33:38.080
muscles in your body gently in order to get more

2855
08:33:38.119 --> 08:33:48.400
of a sense of how they feel. And when you're relaxing,

2856
08:33:53.240 --> 08:33:57.279
when you do tense and muscle and you let it

2857
08:33:57.400 --> 08:34:04.840
go and you let it relax, it relaxes way more

2858
08:34:06.439 --> 08:34:16.479
than it would normally. That you have to feel that

2859
08:34:16.560 --> 08:34:20.279
you're able to do that. There's no point in doing

2860
08:34:20.360 --> 08:34:25.880
it if there's an issue with the per part of

2861
08:34:25.959 --> 08:34:35.200
your body. You need to be gentle with yourself at

2862
08:34:35.439 --> 08:34:49.240
all times when relaxing deeply. It's important to be kind

2863
08:34:50.000 --> 08:35:06.000
to yourself as you notice your mind. How much has

2864
08:35:06.080 --> 08:35:13.479
your mind slowed down since we started this recording.

2865
08:35:29.479 --> 08:35:30.479
How come.

2866
08:35:34.200 --> 08:35:45.680
And peaceful is your mind right now? We have nothing

2867
08:35:45.759 --> 08:35:51.279
to think about and just my voice to listen to.

2868
08:35:55.400 --> 08:36:04.000
Because you know, the intention behind this recording is relaxation.

2869
08:36:06.720 --> 08:36:11.880
At the very least, for you to feel more relaxed

2870
08:36:13.200 --> 08:36:16.080
at the end of the recording than you did at

2871
08:36:16.119 --> 08:36:28.759
the beginning, at the very least, for your mind to

2872
08:36:29.080 --> 08:36:45.279
slow down because your body continues to relax, because that's

2873
08:36:45.680 --> 08:37:01.520
what you want to happen. That's what you expect to happen,

2874
08:37:07.639 --> 08:37:25.599
for relaxation to fill your body, maybe calm in your

2875
08:37:25.759 --> 08:37:34.639
mind to the point of boredom. When you start maybe

2876
08:37:35.080 --> 08:38:17.720
to drift away, drift in, it's almost as if you're

2877
08:38:21.040 --> 08:38:29.240
moving further away from your body in your mind, just

2878
08:38:29.560 --> 08:38:41.360
leaving that there, kind of liking it an escape pod

2879
08:38:42.119 --> 08:38:46.360
and a spaceship a movie, a space movie. You know,

2880
08:38:46.479 --> 08:38:50.360
when they get into a little part in it, since

2881
08:38:50.439 --> 08:39:16.000
the man far away from the spaceship, Siven three continue

2882
08:39:42.479 --> 08:41:10.439
drifting size and peace, so rare and peace, and focusing

2883
08:41:10.799 --> 08:41:24.680
on that feeling of those individual parts of your body

2884
08:41:25.680 --> 08:41:43.279
that or relaxing one by one you may find that

2885
08:41:47.680 --> 08:41:57.319
every now and then you realize that you aren't listening

2886
08:41:59.080 --> 08:42:09.400
to my voice because your mind started to imagine something different,

2887
08:42:10.799 --> 08:42:21.159
maybe started to almost move into some kind of a

2888
08:42:21.520 --> 08:42:30.400
dreamy state, and then you become aware of my voice again.

2889
08:42:34.000 --> 08:42:40.560
And even though you may want to focus on my voice,

2890
08:42:41.279 --> 08:42:48.680
you may also wish to allow your mind to just

2891
08:42:49.040 --> 08:43:08.919
drift naturally into that space of comfort and safety. As

2892
08:43:09.040 --> 08:43:26.479
you feel warm comfort spreading through your body like a

2893
08:43:26.680 --> 08:43:41.080
warm blanket covering you gently, keeping your body it just

2894
08:43:43.759 --> 08:43:59.520
the perfect temperature, and even if you can hear it

2895
08:43:59.680 --> 08:44:12.639
back ground sounds, they just don't seem to matter anymore.

2896
08:44:17.959 --> 08:44:34.200
There's that sense of peace spreads through your mind like

2897
08:44:34.319 --> 08:44:46.319
a gentle breeze, yet strong enough to blow away all negativity,

2898
08:44:50.639 --> 08:45:01.799
strong enough to remove from your mind any anxiety or

2899
08:45:02.119 --> 08:45:16.319
stress that was there before, and blow away any other

2900
08:45:16.720 --> 08:45:31.639
thoughts or feelings that just don't fit with the sense

2901
08:45:39.240 --> 08:46:10.799
relaxation that is feeling your body end your mind. Unless

2902
08:46:10.840 --> 08:46:17.840
you focus on your mind. The countdown from ten down

2903
08:46:17.919 --> 08:46:26.439
to one, and with each number you hear, your mind

2904
08:46:29.520 --> 08:46:54.639
will become slightly more relaxed, just just slightly so, from

2905
08:46:54.840 --> 08:47:02.279
ten down to nine, just a slight movement nine down

2906
08:47:02.400 --> 08:47:14.680
to eight, just another small change in how you feel.

2907
08:47:20.080 --> 08:47:28.400
Eight down to seven. That feeling is a gap, almost

2908
08:47:28.479 --> 08:47:34.040
like a gap that starts to get wider, the gap

2909
08:47:34.479 --> 08:47:42.240
between those feelings that you used to have in your

2910
08:47:42.360 --> 08:47:51.040
mind compared to the feelings you have that are growing now,

2911
08:47:52.759 --> 08:48:02.560
feelings of comfort and security and confidence, and that gap

2912
08:48:03.000 --> 08:48:09.119
becomes wider. Made down to seven, seven, down to six,

2913
08:48:12.799 --> 08:48:17.799
and when you get to five, your mind will start

2914
08:48:17.919 --> 08:48:30.880
to have a certain physical sensation, most like there's a

2915
08:48:31.200 --> 08:48:37.799
magnet outside of your head sucking the tension and the

2916
08:48:38.119 --> 08:48:45.759
stress and any remaining feelings that you don't want, sucking

2917
08:48:45.880 --> 08:48:54.959
them out through your skull. And then down to four

2918
08:48:56.919 --> 08:49:02.159
you could start to really experience against that sense of

2919
08:49:03.680 --> 08:49:14.159
not just emptiness, but space, a place full of fresh air,

2920
08:49:19.200 --> 08:49:26.000
place where you can stretch. It's almost as if as

2921
08:49:26.080 --> 08:49:31.200
you go down to four and three your mind is expanding,

2922
08:49:31.840 --> 08:49:44.919
with this sense of peace and tranquility growing as it

2923
08:49:45.080 --> 08:49:52.360
moves down to When you get to one, in your

2924
08:49:52.520 --> 08:50:04.279
mind just feels exactly how you work to feel. It's

2925
08:50:04.319 --> 08:50:22.279
almost perfect feeding, maybe a sensation that you'd like to

2926
08:50:22.520 --> 08:50:35.319
keep a place that's safe, where nothing can affect you

2927
08:50:36.360 --> 08:50:52.119
at all, and you can stay in that that space

2928
08:50:52.279 --> 08:51:02.159
of comfort and confidence, confident in your own ability to

2929
08:51:02.400 --> 08:51:09.080
create this space and this fear of comfort within your

2930
08:51:09.279 --> 08:51:21.000
own mind just by counting ten down to one. And

2931
08:51:21.159 --> 08:51:25.720
this is something that you can do yourself when you're

2932
08:51:25.759 --> 08:51:33.639
on your own, a time when you can maybe sit down,

2933
08:51:34.639 --> 08:51:46.159
maybe just for a few minutes, closere eyes, just count

2934
08:51:46.720 --> 08:52:00.319
slowly from ten down to one and re experience these

2935
08:52:00.479 --> 08:52:10.840
feelings in your mind. And when you feel that way

2936
08:52:11.000 --> 08:52:25.959
in your mind, your body copies your mind, and that

2937
08:52:26.279 --> 08:52:32.759
feeling it's spread through your spine and your nervous system

2938
08:52:33.439 --> 08:52:40.799
into every part of your body, travels through your bloodstream,

2939
08:52:46.360 --> 08:53:06.840
healing and relaxing every particle of your existence. And we

2940
08:53:06.959 --> 08:53:16.159
can practice this a few times before the end of

2941
08:53:16.240 --> 08:53:21.000
the recording, and then you can practice on your own,

2942
08:53:23.080 --> 08:53:28.119
and each time you count from ten out to one,

2943
08:53:32.799 --> 08:53:43.919
the feelings of comforts, calmness, and deep deep relaxation becomes

2944
08:53:44.240 --> 08:54:00.159
stronger and deeper feeling your mind and your brain with

2945
08:54:00.360 --> 08:54:09.840
these positive chemicals and spread throughout your body, relaxing you

2946
08:54:11.799 --> 08:54:21.319
so quickly, relaxing your whole body and mind so very,

2947
08:54:23.040 --> 08:54:34.279
very easily, just by counting from ten down to one.

2948
08:54:39.279 --> 08:54:41.959
That's what we're going to do. Now, I'm going to

2949
08:54:42.119 --> 08:54:46.200
count from ten down to one. I'd like you to

2950
08:54:46.400 --> 08:54:50.880
repeat the number after me. So when I say ten,

2951
08:54:53.919 --> 08:55:05.759
you can just repeat to yourself ten. Just notice, be

2952
08:55:05.919 --> 08:55:15.040
aware of how you feel in your mind and your body.

2953
08:55:19.439 --> 08:55:25.919
And when I say nine, you can beat to yourself

2954
08:55:28.840 --> 08:55:44.040
nine again, noticing the increase in comfort and calmness in

2955
08:55:44.159 --> 08:55:54.360
your mind and in your body. The same when I

2956
08:55:54.439 --> 08:56:09.720
say eight, when I say seven, six, when I say five, four,

2957
08:56:13.720 --> 08:56:25.680
when I say three, two, and lastly when I say one,

2958
08:56:28.080 --> 08:56:30.200
you can beat that number.

2959
08:56:37.680 --> 08:56:37.799
Now.

2960
08:56:37.919 --> 08:56:43.520
Of course, when you do this on your own without

2961
08:56:43.639 --> 08:56:48.639
listening to me, you can say the numbers or whatever

2962
08:56:50.240 --> 08:56:58.680
speed that you feel is necessary for you, so you

2963
08:56:58.840 --> 08:57:04.639
can adapt. So if you feel you want to say

2964
08:57:04.759 --> 08:57:10.599
the numbers ten down to one faster than I do,

2965
08:57:12.360 --> 08:57:14.880
then you go ahead and do that. Or if you

2966
08:57:15.119 --> 08:57:19.080
feel when you do it yourself that you'd like to

2967
08:57:19.319 --> 08:57:27.680
have more more space between the numbers, maybe take a

2968
08:57:27.759 --> 08:57:34.599
lot longer to get from ten all the way down

2969
08:57:35.200 --> 08:57:52.200
to one, that's your choice also to do. So, I'm

2970
08:57:52.240 --> 08:58:00.720
going to count from ten down to one. I want

2971
08:58:00.759 --> 08:58:04.479
to get to one. That will be the end of

2972
08:58:04.639 --> 08:58:10.119
this recording. The let's of course you're listening to the music,

2973
08:58:11.279 --> 09:04:23.599
and the music will continue ten ninete, twenty, ninety, eighteen, seventeen, sixteen, fifteen, fourteen, thirty, twelve, eleven, ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five, four, three, two.

2974
09:04:29.840 --> 09:04:30.080
One.

2975
09:04:38.479 --> 09:04:48.840
Now open your eyes, noticing how you physically feel having

2976
09:04:48.959 --> 09:04:57.119
counted down from twenty to one, allowing stress, tension to

2977
09:04:57.319 --> 09:05:01.759
leave through your fingertips and your taste. And as you

2978
09:05:01.880 --> 09:05:07.400
focus on your fingertips, maybe they feel a little bit tingling,

2979
09:05:09.639 --> 09:05:14.840
which is I suppose quite understanding, considering the tension has

2980
09:05:14.919 --> 09:05:25.040
been exiting your body through your fingertips. So now I'm

2981
09:05:25.080 --> 09:05:27.759
going to count from twenty down to one again. This

2982
09:05:28.000 --> 09:05:36.759
time you're going to feel relief of tension and stress,

2983
09:05:38.159 --> 09:05:47.919
any anxiety that you may have leaving through your stomach

2984
09:05:50.520 --> 09:05:54.240
just leaving through your stomach, almost as if it's just

2985
09:05:55.240 --> 09:06:02.319
releasing the whole of your stomach, your need to just

2986
09:06:02.439 --> 09:06:06.680
a barking chest or blow your chest, rather so surrounding

2987
09:06:06.799 --> 09:06:11.440
your belly by an area, the whole area. You can

2988
09:06:11.639 --> 09:06:16.080
feel the tension of your body where there's left just

2989
09:06:16.919 --> 09:06:21.599
releasing from the area, and you may notice that your

2990
09:06:21.639 --> 09:06:28.199
stomach will become very relaxed. As I countdown from twenty

2991
09:06:29.160 --> 09:07:51.800
down to one now twenty nineteen, eighteen, seventeen, sixteen, fifteen, fourteen, thirty, twelve, eleven, ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five, four,

2992
09:07:55.959 --> 09:08:12.919
three two, or you can open your eyes again if

2993
09:08:12.919 --> 09:08:16.519
you choose, but you can just keep them closed because

2994
09:08:16.559 --> 09:08:23.839
it feels relaxing. Just notice your stomach feels. I notice,

2995
09:08:24.279 --> 09:08:27.839
there's your focus. Just do a little scan of your body,

2996
09:08:29.919 --> 09:08:40.720
just noticing your body feels focusing upper body, back, chests, stomach,

2997
09:08:40.959 --> 09:08:52.360
lax arms, hands, feet, just noticing, and you know, you

2998
09:08:52.519 --> 09:08:59.360
may start to feel more a sense of tiredness, which

2999
09:08:59.519 --> 09:09:04.680
may be the easy listening to this recording because.

3000
09:09:04.519 --> 09:09:06.400
You like to.

3001
09:09:08.040 --> 09:09:19.919
Let go completely of everything and drift morph into a nice, natural, calm,

3002
09:09:20.319 --> 09:09:35.519
relaxing sleep. So now we're going to focus on your forehead,

3003
09:09:39.400 --> 09:09:42.199
and if you choose, you can incorporate your eyes in

3004
09:09:42.360 --> 09:09:49.239
this focus as well. Your forehead and your eyes, it's

3005
09:09:49.319 --> 09:09:53.800
that whole area basically, almost as if you were wearing

3006
09:09:53.839 --> 09:09:58.160
a mask, you know, like a I don't know, Batman

3007
09:09:58.360 --> 09:10:04.720
mask or something, or I'm trying to sorrow or something,

3008
09:10:04.760 --> 09:10:06.839
you know, the kind of mask that covers your eyes

3009
09:10:07.360 --> 09:10:13.839
but also covers quite a lot of the forehead. Focusing

3010
09:10:13.919 --> 09:10:16.559
on that area, because that's the area that we're now

3011
09:10:16.680 --> 09:10:23.400
going to release tension, stress from your mind, your brain,

3012
09:10:23.680 --> 09:10:27.239
from your mind, and any tension that you may have

3013
09:10:27.559 --> 09:10:32.879
remaining your face, in your neck and your jaw, in

3014
09:10:33.000 --> 09:10:39.440
your eyes, your forehead, or your scalp. So basically any

3015
09:10:39.760 --> 09:10:45.720
tension within your head area, including your mind and your brain,

3016
09:10:49.639 --> 09:10:54.199
that's going to be released through your forehead and your eyes.

3017
09:10:58.160 --> 09:11:01.559
As I count down the game from twenty down to

3018
09:11:01.720 --> 09:12:30.879
one now twenty nineteen, eighteen, seventeen, sixteen, fifteen, fourteen, thirteen, twelve, eleven, nine, eight, seven, six, five, four,

3019
09:12:35.000 --> 09:13:00.279
three one, noticing as you scared your face much, your

3020
09:13:00.839 --> 09:13:09.639
your eyes, your cheap bones, your ears, your forehead, your scalp,

3021
09:13:11.279 --> 09:13:15.080
your neck, back of your neck and the front of

3022
09:13:15.160 --> 09:13:18.839
your neck, the side of your neck, and your throat.

3023
09:13:25.120 --> 09:13:38.440
Noticing being aware of the comfort increased in relaxation, not

3024
09:13:38.839 --> 09:13:43.800
just in your head and neck and mind, also the

3025
09:13:43.919 --> 09:13:53.879
rest of your body. Just notice how loose and calm

3026
09:13:54.040 --> 09:14:00.319
you film, and how easily it is to just let

3027
09:14:00.440 --> 09:14:27.239
go completely, let go completely, how easily. So what I'm

3028
09:14:27.279 --> 09:14:30.800
gonna do about is I wanted to focus on the

3029
09:14:30.919 --> 09:14:31.839
top of your head.

3030
09:14:37.279 --> 09:14:38.639
Am I going to allow.

3031
09:14:39.919 --> 09:14:48.360
Every last piece of tension or stress the mind be

3032
09:14:48.680 --> 09:14:54.080
lingering and or hiding in your body or mind head

3033
09:14:55.680 --> 09:15:01.040
to just be sucked down the top of your head

3034
09:15:03.440 --> 09:15:11.959
and released to the air. Was sucked down into the clouds.

3035
09:15:14.480 --> 09:15:19.440
Imagine a big cloud a got your head, almost like

3036
09:15:19.559 --> 09:15:25.680
a whirlpool. This is can suck that tension out the

3037
09:15:25.800 --> 09:15:36.400
top of your head. Just take it away, good to focus.

3038
09:15:37.360 --> 09:15:41.239
Imagine an opening on the top of your head with

3039
09:15:41.480 --> 09:15:47.279
that tension and stress and any remaining issues, maybe worries

3040
09:15:47.400 --> 09:15:51.800
of consers that are not used to you. Now you

3041
09:15:51.879 --> 09:15:54.360
can all be sucked down at the top of your

3042
09:15:54.440 --> 09:16:01.000
head you have taken away. That's like out down again.

3043
09:16:01.639 --> 09:16:36.440
I'm twenty down one now twenty nineteen, eighteen seventeen, sixteen

3044
09:16:42.279 --> 09:17:41.160
fifty fourteeneen to twelve even ten nine eight, seven, six

3045
09:17:45.480 --> 09:17:51.800
five four.

3046
09:17:55.680 --> 09:18:00.480
Three to.

3047
09:18:05.879 --> 09:18:32.480
Wha prey. Noticing how you feel, how relaxed and calm

3048
09:18:34.519 --> 09:18:48.839
you physically and mentally feel right now, how peaceful your

3049
09:18:49.120 --> 09:18:55.400
mind feels. It feels so nice to just let go,

3050
09:18:57.680 --> 09:19:06.959
to give yourself some space to breathe easily, to think calmly,

3051
09:19:11.839 --> 09:19:16.680
and just to take a break from all that pointless

3052
09:19:16.879 --> 09:19:22.360
worry and concerns about things that you don't need to

3053
09:19:22.480 --> 09:19:33.080
think about right now, because this is your time to

3054
09:19:33.319 --> 09:19:42.120
let go. This is your space to enjoy feeling deeply relaxed,

3055
09:19:44.239 --> 09:19:51.720
peaceful in your mind, relaxed in your body. They can

3056
09:19:51.839 --> 09:20:01.040
feel so good, so nice to just not have to

3057
09:20:01.239 --> 09:20:12.440
do anything, to be able to really enjoy that serenity

3058
09:20:13.160 --> 09:20:21.120
that comes of letting go completely, that peacefulness that comes

3059
09:20:21.319 --> 09:20:39.000
with being in this peaceful space. And you can keep

3060
09:20:39.480 --> 09:20:44.120
this sense of calmness for as long as you choose.

3061
09:20:52.120 --> 09:20:57.879
If you choose to drift off into a deep, healing,

3062
09:20:58.239 --> 09:21:06.959
natural sleep, then you can do that. It's completely up

3063
09:21:07.080 --> 09:21:14.959
to you. And you can keep this feeling of calmness

3064
09:21:15.959 --> 09:21:20.800
physically and in your mind as long as you choose

3065
09:21:22.319 --> 09:21:37.559
to feel completely relaxed, completely relaxed. And I'd like you

3066
09:21:37.800 --> 09:21:43.599
to make up your mind that you're going to relax,

3067
09:21:52.160 --> 09:21:54.959
and I want to explore that with you. What it

3068
09:21:55.120 --> 09:22:02.440
feels like when you actually decide that you're going to relax,

3069
09:22:04.120 --> 09:22:10.720
not forcing yourself, but giving yourself that. Yes, it is

3070
09:22:10.800 --> 09:22:15.800
a command, really, isn't it. When you're telling yourself relax

3071
09:22:18.000 --> 09:22:23.239
in a gentle but firm way that only you can

3072
09:22:23.360 --> 09:22:28.239
really tell yourself in that way, you can't really have

3073
09:22:28.360 --> 09:22:32.199
someone else saying to you and now it relax, relax,

3074
09:22:32.839 --> 09:22:36.879
you know, and it needs to be gentle. But you can't.

3075
09:22:37.040 --> 09:22:44.160
Someone else can't really have the same the same kind

3076
09:22:44.239 --> 09:22:53.879
of influence or power that you have over your own physicality,

3077
09:22:54.720 --> 09:23:04.360
over how you feel, because when you say it to yourself,

3078
09:23:05.639 --> 09:23:12.639
it means more. It's personal, and your brain and your

3079
09:23:13.080 --> 09:23:20.120
unconscious mind and your body listens to what you say. So,

3080
09:23:20.400 --> 09:23:24.199
for example, we'll test it out. We'll do a little test,

3081
09:23:24.319 --> 09:23:27.959
a few little tests along the way, and you can

3082
09:23:28.080 --> 09:23:34.319
get more of an idea of the force, a positive

3083
09:23:34.559 --> 09:23:40.959
force that you can have in creating a sense of

3084
09:23:41.239 --> 09:23:46.239
comfort and relaxation in your body and your mind quite

3085
09:23:46.360 --> 09:23:59.080
quickly just by you telling yourself to relax. So I'm

3086
09:23:59.120 --> 09:24:05.839
going to start by its focus on your hands. So

3087
09:24:05.959 --> 09:24:08.959
focus on your hands and just tell your hands to relax,

3088
09:24:10.000 --> 09:24:14.879
and just say relax. As you focus on your hands,

3089
09:24:17.160 --> 09:24:21.680
you could say my hands are relaxed, or I want

3090
09:24:21.760 --> 09:24:26.040
my hands to relax. I think if you actually do

3091
09:24:26.160 --> 09:24:34.160
it directly by focusing and imagining that your hands can

3092
09:24:34.440 --> 09:24:37.080
hear what you're saying, you know, they've got little ears,

3093
09:24:37.839 --> 09:24:42.959
which is a little weird. So talking to your hands

3094
09:24:43.720 --> 09:25:12.559
and just say relax. Medicine, how your hands start to relax. Now,

3095
09:25:12.680 --> 09:25:15.919
focus on your eyes and tell your eyes to relax.

3096
09:25:17.080 --> 09:25:21.760
You just say in the same word relax and find

3097
09:25:21.839 --> 09:25:29.480
the right tone for you. You know, I might say relax,

3098
09:25:30.160 --> 09:25:38.279
but you you might say relax or relax. You know,

3099
09:25:38.599 --> 09:25:44.239
you might say it differently to yourself, and that's important

3100
09:25:45.120 --> 09:25:49.279
for you to gauge what feels the right for you.

3101
09:25:51.160 --> 09:25:56.080
To just tell your eyes to relax whilst focusing on

3102
09:25:56.160 --> 09:26:01.239
your eyes, your eyelids, the muscles around your eyes, your eyebrows,

3103
09:26:01.760 --> 09:26:37.319
and just tell your eyes directly relax. Now. Now, I

3104
09:26:37.519 --> 09:26:47.800
just did that myself, and sometimes you may feel that

3105
09:26:47.919 --> 09:26:52.879
you need a bit more time for the different parts

3106
09:26:52.959 --> 09:26:56.879
to relax, you know, because I started talking again and

3107
09:26:57.040 --> 09:27:02.000
maybe that part hasn't relaxed full. But what happened is

3108
09:27:02.040 --> 09:27:04.760
that it would just continue to relax even though I'm talking.

3109
09:27:06.400 --> 09:27:12.160
And that's happening with my eyes. Something else I noticed

3110
09:27:12.279 --> 09:27:16.919
is when I started focusing on my eyes, that actually

3111
09:27:17.720 --> 09:27:20.519
almost became they got worse before they got better in

3112
09:27:20.639 --> 09:27:24.440
a way. So I felt a degree of tension growing

3113
09:27:24.559 --> 09:27:30.239
in my eyes and then disappearing. So I think what

3114
09:27:30.400 --> 09:27:33.319
that was really it was just me becoming more aware

3115
09:27:34.919 --> 09:27:39.480
of the tension that was already there that I wasn't.

3116
09:27:40.480 --> 09:27:44.400
I wasn't focused on it before, so I wasn't really

3117
09:27:45.160 --> 09:28:02.519
acknowledging it or really conscious to those feelings. Yeah, my

3118
09:28:02.680 --> 09:28:06.839
eyes is still continuing to relax, as well as my hands. Actually,

3119
09:28:10.319 --> 09:28:15.720
my hands have got a certain kind of energy, like

3120
09:28:15.959 --> 09:28:21.120
not buzzing, but I can kind of feel a degree

3121
09:28:21.160 --> 09:28:27.080
of energy in my hands. Maybe that's where the tension

3122
09:28:27.199 --> 09:28:38.559
is being released. Maybe that's the cause in that the

3123
09:28:38.680 --> 09:28:40.959
next part, I think we should focus on the back

3124
09:28:41.040 --> 09:28:43.559
of the neck. That's a part which was quite often

3125
09:28:45.599 --> 09:28:48.080
well for me, holds tension. I don't know about it

3126
09:28:48.120 --> 09:28:52.760
for yourself, but I think it's quite a standard place

3127
09:28:52.879 --> 09:28:59.599
where tension is sometimes held. So, and I'm doing it

3128
09:29:00.000 --> 09:29:02.440
actly what you're doing as you do it as well,

3129
09:29:02.599 --> 09:29:06.519
So I'm telling my body parts to relax as well.

3130
09:29:07.279 --> 09:29:09.120
So if you tell your neck at the back of

3131
09:29:09.199 --> 09:29:11.800
your neck, focus on the back of your neck and

3132
09:29:12.000 --> 09:29:19.319
just say relax in your own words, in your own tone,

3133
09:29:19.680 --> 09:29:22.519
in your own voice. You can say out loud, or

3134
09:29:22.599 --> 09:29:27.000
you can just say it to yourself internally. But you're

3135
09:29:27.080 --> 09:29:31.519
focusing and you're saying it literally to the back of

3136
09:29:31.599 --> 09:29:34.480
your neck, as if the back of your neck can

3137
09:29:34.559 --> 09:29:41.279
actually hear what you're saying. So do that now, just

3138
09:29:41.360 --> 09:29:45.760
say relax to the back of your neck and I'll

3139
09:29:45.800 --> 09:30:27.519
do the same. Now, what I noticed and you may

3140
09:30:27.599 --> 09:30:32.639
have had similar thing is, even though I was focusing

3141
09:30:32.760 --> 09:30:40.839
on the back of my neck, other parts started to

3142
09:30:43.839 --> 09:30:47.480
I don't know, showed themselves to me or maybe because

3143
09:30:47.519 --> 09:30:50.360
they want to be relaxed as well. But I started

3144
09:30:50.599 --> 09:30:54.680
noticing the feelings in my shoulders, tension in my shoulders,

3145
09:30:54.959 --> 09:31:01.720
and in my upper back. Whether that was because my

3146
09:31:02.239 --> 09:31:06.080
back of my neck was saying, well, I'm pretty much okay,

3147
09:31:07.720 --> 09:31:17.120
it's the other parts that need attention, But my lobe,

3148
09:31:17.239 --> 09:31:21.120
my back of my neck is still relaxing. But I

3149
09:31:21.279 --> 09:31:28.040
just became more aware of other parts that needed attention. Now,

3150
09:31:28.160 --> 09:31:33.080
this might happen, and it's not. It doesn't mean that

3151
09:31:33.160 --> 09:31:37.680
it's going wrong. It just means you're being notified with

3152
09:31:38.680 --> 09:31:46.440
more places that also want to feel relaxed. So I'm

3153
09:31:46.480 --> 09:31:50.680
going to focus on my other back. So you can

3154
09:31:50.720 --> 09:31:56.519
do the same, even if you don't have any feelings

3155
09:31:56.599 --> 09:32:01.440
of tension that are obvious in your other back. If

3156
09:32:01.480 --> 09:32:06.360
you just focus on your back and the whole area

3157
09:32:06.519 --> 09:32:11.000
from the shoulder blades down to the middle of your

3158
09:32:11.080 --> 09:32:15.319
back and a spine. And with me, it's more the

3159
09:32:15.440 --> 09:32:23.440
shoulder blades more. Yeah, that's the parts that are really

3160
09:32:25.519 --> 09:32:27.199
sort of given me.

3161
09:32:28.919 --> 09:32:29.239
That not.

3162
09:32:31.199 --> 09:32:34.599
That it needs relaxing sounds gonna ask that pad to relax,

3163
09:32:35.800 --> 09:32:49.199
and you can do the same. Now relax you up

3164
09:32:49.239 --> 09:33:06.839
the back. There's something strange happened there, and this often happens.

3165
09:33:06.919 --> 09:33:12.959
I've been doing this for sixteen years or something, and

3166
09:33:13.239 --> 09:33:21.919
often I'm one surprised but amazed really that there can

3167
09:33:22.000 --> 09:33:26.199
be a feeling. So when I was focusing on the

3168
09:33:26.279 --> 09:33:30.279
back of my neck, my upper back was starting to

3169
09:33:30.480 --> 09:33:36.800
feel quite stressed and in need of attention. As soon

3170
09:33:36.879 --> 09:33:40.199
as I started talking to you about my upper back

3171
09:33:41.000 --> 09:33:45.559
and talking about, you know, getting ready to ask the

3172
09:33:45.720 --> 09:33:50.800
upper back to relax, my back already started to relax.

3173
09:33:53.559 --> 09:33:56.680
It's almost as if it doesn't need to hear the words,

3174
09:33:57.680 --> 09:34:15.639
just needs it just needs to be noticed. That is

3175
09:34:15.760 --> 09:34:23.120
something that often happens in this type of situation is

3176
09:34:23.360 --> 09:34:28.480
when you start to relax a couple of parts of

3177
09:34:28.599 --> 09:34:33.760
your body, as we've done with our hands, our eyes

3178
09:34:33.959 --> 09:34:43.279
and eyelids, and now back of the neck, top of

3179
09:34:43.360 --> 09:34:43.959
the back.

3180
09:34:45.639 --> 09:34:46.160
Up a back.

3181
09:34:47.480 --> 09:34:51.480
The rest of the body seems to just take notice

3182
09:34:54.239 --> 09:35:00.319
and decide in its own way to start really as

3183
09:35:00.440 --> 09:35:07.680
in other parts of your body start to just become looser.

3184
09:35:12.440 --> 09:35:15.239
I suppose it's kind of like a bit of an avalanche,

3185
09:35:15.440 --> 09:35:20.519
you know, a little ball starts rolling before you know it.

3186
09:35:20.639 --> 09:35:23.879
The whole of your body is completely relaxed and can't

3187
09:35:33.000 --> 09:35:40.599
And if you focus on your face, you focus on

3188
09:35:40.680 --> 09:35:49.319
your eyes, your eyelids, your eyebrows, and the muscles around

3189
09:35:49.400 --> 09:35:58.959
your eyes. Maybe you start to notice that your forehead

3190
09:35:59.239 --> 09:36:03.680
is more of a still it was. Maybe your face

3191
09:36:03.839 --> 09:36:09.400
is more relaxed. I would say my entire face is

3192
09:36:10.639 --> 09:36:24.080
a lot more relaxed than it was. So you're going

3193
09:36:24.120 --> 09:36:30.480
to focus now on your shoulders again, just like before.

3194
09:36:31.839 --> 09:36:35.879
Just tell your shoulders and you can do them individity.

3195
09:36:36.000 --> 09:36:39.680
You can do the right shoulder and left shoulder. I

3196
09:36:39.879 --> 09:36:43.879
just generally do both at the same time. And just

3197
09:36:44.080 --> 09:36:47.639
tell your shoulders and you focus on them in your mind.

3198
09:36:49.000 --> 09:36:53.919
Focus on that how they feel. Maybe you can see

3199
09:36:54.040 --> 09:37:00.239
them in your mind's eye. Just tell your should.

3200
09:37:04.120 --> 09:37:05.239
To relax.

3201
09:37:42.440 --> 09:37:55.639
As nice as they might exe. But I didn't notice,

3202
09:37:58.279 --> 09:38:04.720
especially with my back, is the connection between the different

3203
09:38:04.839 --> 09:38:15.919
parts the back, the shoulders, the neck, being all connected

3204
09:38:16.400 --> 09:38:22.839
and being such a large part of your body, it's

3205
09:38:22.839 --> 09:38:31.639
always hard to separate them from each other. My lower

3206
09:38:31.720 --> 09:38:33.800
back is starting to relax on its own.

3207
09:38:40.000 --> 09:38:40.919
Maybe I'm going.

3208
09:38:40.760 --> 09:38:46.839
Too slow, and that could be an issue because we

3209
09:38:46.959 --> 09:38:53.000
all go at different speeds. And the idea of the

3210
09:38:53.080 --> 09:38:55.879
beginning of this recording was for you to be able

3211
09:38:55.959 --> 09:39:11.720
to just say to yourself, relax without focusing on any

3212
09:39:11.919 --> 09:39:17.360
particular part of your body. Because when you know that

3213
09:39:18.279 --> 09:39:30.440
tearing your hands to relax and your hand relax, you

3214
09:39:30.599 --> 09:39:37.360
tell your eyelids and your eyes and muscles around your

3215
09:39:37.519 --> 09:39:52.480
eyes and your eyebrows to relax, and they relax. You

3216
09:39:52.680 --> 09:40:04.959
tell the back of your neck to relax, and it relaxes.

3217
09:40:12.959 --> 09:40:32.680
You tell your upper back to relax, and it relaxes.

3218
09:40:40.400 --> 09:40:42.360
You tell your shoulders.

3219
09:40:43.680 --> 09:40:55.839
To relax, and they relax.

3220
09:41:19.519 --> 09:41:23.599
You told your hands to relax, they relaxed, and they

3221
09:41:23.720 --> 09:41:37.319
continued to relax. When you told your eyelids, the muscles

3222
09:41:37.360 --> 09:41:49.760
around your eyes, your eyebrows to relax, they relaxed and continued.

3223
09:41:50.599 --> 09:41:51.239
To relax.

3224
09:41:57.599 --> 09:42:01.239
When you told the back of your neck what's on

3225
09:42:01.319 --> 09:42:07.319
the back of your neck and told it to relax,

3226
09:42:11.599 --> 09:42:26.919
It relaxed and continued to relax. When you told your

3227
09:42:27.519 --> 09:42:39.599
ulpa back to relax, it relaxed and continued to relax.

3228
09:42:47.959 --> 09:42:53.480
That's with your shoulders. You told your shoulders to relax.

3229
09:42:53.879 --> 09:42:54.400
In your.

3230
09:42:57.080 --> 09:43:13.040
Shoulders relaxed and to relax. And it's not just that,

3231
09:43:16.400 --> 09:43:23.879
It's that the rest of your body has also been listening,

3232
09:43:25.599 --> 09:43:31.680
and their relaxation has been spreading. So from your eyes,

3233
09:43:32.040 --> 09:43:39.400
the relaxation spread to your forehead, round your face, into

3234
09:43:39.519 --> 09:43:53.360
your skin, into your jaw, into the fronts and sides

3235
09:43:53.440 --> 09:43:58.120
of your neck. I'll way down your chest and stuff

3236
09:44:04.919 --> 09:44:12.040
your relaxed hands and shoulders. Me up through your arms,

3237
09:44:12.760 --> 09:44:24.599
relaxing your forearms, your upper arms, elbows, your wrists, let

3238
09:44:24.760 --> 09:44:41.319
it go, get lower back, your hips, buttons growing, or

3239
09:44:41.559 --> 09:44:50.279
just start to relax. So continue even more, comfort spreading

3240
09:44:50.400 --> 09:44:59.199
through your legs all the way down to your ankles,

3241
09:45:04.360 --> 09:45:08.440
the tops of your feet, the sight of your feet,

3242
09:45:10.279 --> 09:45:21.160
and the bottoms of your feet, relaxing into your toes,

3243
09:45:24.959 --> 09:45:27.480
each tone relaxing.

3244
09:45:31.040 --> 09:45:34.959
Cal This is.

3245
09:45:47.319 --> 09:46:04.839
And as your body relaxes more, your mind becomes slower piece,

3246
09:46:12.800 --> 09:46:20.720
to the point where if you choose to fall asleep,

3247
09:46:26.040 --> 09:46:43.199
he can easily do that easy drift the way because

3248
09:46:43.279 --> 09:46:50.800
there's nothing going on in your mind. Your brain is peaceful,

3249
09:46:59.199 --> 09:47:32.680
your body continuous to relax. And with that connection between

3250
09:47:32.959 --> 09:47:38.800
your body relaxing, the word do you say to yourself

3251
09:47:41.279 --> 09:47:52.360
relax means that you don't need to focus on just

3252
09:47:52.680 --> 09:47:59.639
one part. You can just focus on You're in time

3253
09:48:00.000 --> 09:48:19.160
body saying the powerful wordlacs.

3254
09:48:23.599 --> 09:48:24.599
And as.

3255
09:48:26.160 --> 09:48:45.319
Those familiar sensations of comfort spreading throughout your body, listening

3256
09:48:45.599 --> 09:49:05.360
and calming and heathing every part to your body heathing, relaxed.

3257
09:49:20.000 --> 09:49:23.440
So all you need to do from now on is

3258
09:49:23.680 --> 09:49:46.760
just tell your something relax eating completely out for the boy.

3259
09:49:59.680 --> 09:50:35.519
So starting now with number twenty nineteen eighteen seventeen
