recordings are on there and you really should visit. It's

that on my website as well. And lastly, my YouTube

13
00:00:55.679 --> 00:01:01.840
channel is at Jason Land. I forgot what it was

14
00:01:01.880 --> 00:01:04.879
for a second, So yeah, all my latest recordings I

15
00:01:04.920 --> 00:01:09.799
also upload to YouTube and all the podcast episodes so

16
00:01:09.840 --> 00:01:10.200
you can.

17
00:01:10.120 --> 00:01:14.840
Listen to them there as well. That is everything I think,

18
00:01:16.599 --> 00:01:23.879
uh sif so today.

19
00:01:23.879 --> 00:01:27.680
Today to day, I hope everyone's well. As I said,

20
00:01:27.719 --> 00:01:33.480
this is the let Me Boil Your Pain Away. These recordings,

21
00:01:34.519 --> 00:01:39.760
it's just me talking. I usually focus on a specific,

22
00:01:41.439 --> 00:01:49.840
specific kind of thing and I go from there. Just

23
00:01:50.599 --> 00:01:56.920
it depends. It all depends. So what I do. I

24
00:01:56.959 --> 00:02:01.280
do quite a bit of research for these recordings. When

25
00:02:01.319 --> 00:02:03.079
I say quite a bitter, I do a little bit

26
00:02:04.840 --> 00:02:08.879
try and look through some of the research papers and

27
00:02:08.960 --> 00:02:12.199
the books and stuff that have been written over the years,

28
00:02:13.400 --> 00:02:18.120
and also, you know, try and include some up to

29
00:02:18.280 --> 00:02:24.919
dates information as well as me just chatting and discussing

30
00:02:25.159 --> 00:02:27.319
some kind of techniques that you could use if you

31
00:02:27.360 --> 00:02:32.280
wanted to, or you can just sw NOWT. So I

32
00:02:32.360 --> 00:02:37.400
also need to just add this is not replacement for

33
00:02:37.520 --> 00:02:43.599
therapy or medical advice. Only listen to this recording when

34
00:02:44.199 --> 00:02:46.360
you know the cause of the chronic pain and you

35
00:02:46.479 --> 00:02:54.400
have permission from your doctor. Oki doki basically just me chatting,

36
00:02:54.759 --> 00:03:01.479
just me chatting, and if it helps, great, you know.

37
00:03:01.960 --> 00:03:03.680
And I think it's a little bit like they'll let

38
00:03:03.719 --> 00:03:07.199
me boy to sleep. Whi's very similar to let me

39
00:03:07.240 --> 00:03:11.159
boy to sleep in a sense of me just waffling

40
00:03:11.240 --> 00:03:15.639
on a little bit more focused on this one, on

41
00:03:15.680 --> 00:03:19.879
this one, a little bit more focused because I do

42
00:03:20.120 --> 00:03:26.919
try and keep bringing it back to the subject. However,

43
00:03:30.000 --> 00:03:32.879
I think that over time, as with the let Me

44
00:03:32.919 --> 00:03:38.960
Boy to sleeps, you get used to my voice and

45
00:03:40.479 --> 00:03:44.080
you kind of get used to feeling a certain way,

46
00:03:45.319 --> 00:03:51.879
feeling relaxed, feeling calm, feeling comfortable, your mind slows down,

47
00:03:52.680 --> 00:03:58.199
your body relaxes, there's a sense of peacefulness that can

48
00:03:58.240 --> 00:04:02.360
come over you. And you may also find that your

49
00:04:02.439 --> 00:04:06.520
mind drifts. So you know, it's these are kind of

50
00:04:06.520 --> 00:04:11.520
things that would be natural. It's it's probably no different

51
00:04:11.520 --> 00:04:14.639
from really in the same way kind of if you

52
00:04:14.759 --> 00:04:17.800
listen to a favorite piece of music, it brings back

53
00:04:18.959 --> 00:04:22.600
maybe the feelings that you have about that particular bit

54
00:04:22.639 --> 00:04:27.000
of music. So I'll give you an example of my

55
00:04:27.040 --> 00:04:31.639
own there totally Clips of the Heart or down Under?

56
00:04:32.839 --> 00:04:42.360
Do you come from a landown under that one? Or Africa? Okay,

57
00:04:42.439 --> 00:04:43.959
that wasn't a very good example of that one, but

58
00:04:44.680 --> 00:04:51.959
Toto could have been or whatever would a man Africa

59
00:04:52.560 --> 00:04:56.560
that one? So those songs give me a sense of

60
00:04:56.800 --> 00:04:58.600
I get a sense of well being when I hear

61
00:04:58.680 --> 00:05:03.600
those songs because they remind me of you know, that

62
00:05:03.720 --> 00:05:07.319
period when I've I really first got into music the

63
00:05:07.360 --> 00:05:11.959
early eighties. That's when I liked music before that, but

64
00:05:13.759 --> 00:05:16.279
I kind of really got into music like late seventies,

65
00:05:16.319 --> 00:05:20.720
early eighties. With the late seventies, I was kind of,

66
00:05:22.759 --> 00:05:26.480
I suppose following my brother's leads in a way, you know,

67
00:05:26.560 --> 00:05:28.680
I was kind of into what they were into trying

68
00:05:28.720 --> 00:05:33.800
to copy them maybe, But in the eighties I went

69
00:05:33.839 --> 00:05:36.360
in my own direction because I liked stuff that they

70
00:05:36.399 --> 00:05:42.600
didn't necessarily like because different age groups. So I was

71
00:05:42.639 --> 00:05:45.439
the only one in my family that loved Shaking Stevens

72
00:05:47.560 --> 00:05:53.120
absolutely loved he was the king. But no one else

73
00:05:53.240 --> 00:05:55.079
in the family loved him. They all knew that I

74
00:05:55.120 --> 00:06:01.199
loved him, and they accepted that, but no one else.

75
00:06:01.199 --> 00:06:03.120
I'm not saying they didn't like him, but no one

76
00:06:03.279 --> 00:06:07.240
was the kind of fan that I was. In fact,

77
00:06:07.759 --> 00:06:11.759
in fact, I should have gone to see him in concert.

78
00:06:12.560 --> 00:06:14.319
That's what a big fan I was. But I never

79
00:06:15.399 --> 00:06:17.120
never even thought about it. I don't know if I'd

80
00:06:17.120 --> 00:06:19.759
want to have gone to a big place with lots

81
00:06:19.759 --> 00:06:20.480
of people.

82
00:06:21.720 --> 00:06:22.680
Lots of people.

83
00:06:24.279 --> 00:06:28.240
So what I did this is I did this, I

84
00:06:28.279 --> 00:06:31.519
think a couple of days ago. I went on to

85
00:06:31.600 --> 00:06:35.079
chat GPT, which is my little assistant, my little study assistant.

86
00:06:36.079 --> 00:06:38.920
I just asked, please list all books to discuss chronic

87
00:06:38.959 --> 00:06:43.160
pain relief in detail. So I went through a few

88
00:06:43.160 --> 00:06:48.879
books and I said, can you put now listen them

89
00:06:48.920 --> 00:06:54.800
all together? So they did so the core books. So

90
00:06:55.720 --> 00:07:02.199
what I did, then, let's dive into book one, which

91
00:07:02.399 --> 00:07:09.360
is Hypnosis for Chronic Pain Management Therapist Guide by Mark P. Jensen,

92
00:07:13.560 --> 00:07:20.319
published twenty eleven Oxford University Press. So, Mark P. Jensen,

93
00:07:21.279 --> 00:07:26.519
Hypnosis for Chronic Pain Management Therapist Guide. I think I've

94
00:07:26.519 --> 00:07:30.279
got that book on my bookshelf as well, anyway, because

95
00:07:30.279 --> 00:07:33.759
I've got pretty much all books. I haven't got all

96
00:07:33.800 --> 00:07:37.560
chronic pain books, but I think I've got all the

97
00:07:37.639 --> 00:07:41.079
hypnosis books for chronic pain that have got like hypnosis

98
00:07:41.079 --> 00:07:43.399
and chronic pain in the title. I've got most of those,

99
00:07:43.439 --> 00:07:47.639
I think, if not all of them. So apparently, he

100
00:07:47.720 --> 00:07:50.160
says he this is the most, probably the most important

101
00:07:50.160 --> 00:07:55.639
textbook specifically dedicated to using hypnosis for chronic pain. Now,

102
00:07:58.759 --> 00:08:04.199
the good thing about I'm not like pumping myself up.

103
00:08:04.519 --> 00:08:08.199
That's weird, but you know, I can see something and

104
00:08:08.199 --> 00:08:10.040
now I kind of know what it means and I

105
00:08:10.040 --> 00:08:12.519
can explain it without having to explained to me from

106
00:08:12.560 --> 00:08:17.240
the book. So the science and principles overview chronic pain

107
00:08:17.639 --> 00:08:26.360
psychological psychological aspects or physiological hypnosis basics. So what I

108
00:08:26.480 --> 00:08:33.519
was interested is summer things that they're talking about. So

109
00:08:33.559 --> 00:08:38.559
the key stuff that they're focusing on for me is

110
00:08:39.279 --> 00:08:48.679
techniques pain dissociation altered sensory experience time distortion. So I've

111
00:08:48.679 --> 00:08:51.759
talked about time distortion as well, which would be in

112
00:08:51.799 --> 00:08:56.279
the past. It's kind of shrinking painful episodes into smaller timeframes.

113
00:08:57.279 --> 00:09:02.960
And this is ideal if you're not driving or you're

114
00:09:03.000 --> 00:09:08.840
not doing something that needs your attention, because ultimately you

115
00:09:08.919 --> 00:09:16.159
would not go to sleep, but it kind of wouldn't

116
00:09:16.240 --> 00:09:22.519
really necessarily be aware of the time when the discomfort

117
00:09:22.639 --> 00:09:30.960
was there, and then you'd kind of become more alert

118
00:09:31.440 --> 00:09:33.399
at the end of it when it's kind of gone.

119
00:09:36.039 --> 00:09:39.759
In a sense time distortion. I mean, in the same

120
00:09:39.799 --> 00:09:42.200
as you know, when we go to sleep, we wake up.

121
00:09:43.240 --> 00:09:47.840
There's no really any way of knowing how many hours

122
00:09:47.879 --> 00:09:51.200
were being in bed. You can guess by how light

123
00:09:51.240 --> 00:09:53.799
it is outside, or if you've got a clock next

124
00:09:53.799 --> 00:09:56.960
to you, by somebody guesses it, if you've got a

125
00:09:56.960 --> 00:10:01.919
clock next to your bed, but you can't.

126
00:10:01.960 --> 00:10:02.159
You know.

127
00:10:02.320 --> 00:10:05.919
Sometimes I don't know about you, but I'll wake up

128
00:10:06.000 --> 00:10:13.840
for a bladder empty in session and it might feel

129
00:10:13.840 --> 00:10:15.480
like I've only been in bed for a little while,

130
00:10:15.480 --> 00:10:17.000
and maybe I might have been in bed for three

131
00:10:17.080 --> 00:10:21.320
or four hours. Other times I might think, oh, it's

132
00:10:21.320 --> 00:10:23.159
got to be at least five in the morning, and

133
00:10:23.200 --> 00:10:25.000
it's only I've only been in bed for an hour,

134
00:10:25.960 --> 00:10:28.840
so it's you know, it just changes. It's hard to

135
00:10:29.080 --> 00:10:34.360
really I guess that is time distortion in a way,

136
00:10:35.960 --> 00:10:40.360
so pain blocking imagery. So I did something like this

137
00:10:40.720 --> 00:10:45.960
the other day as well, using things like shields, filters, clouds, lights,

138
00:10:46.039 --> 00:10:51.799
et cetera. And I was tall about having a cast,

139
00:10:53.279 --> 00:10:58.559
like having a cast which protects that part of the body.

140
00:10:58.720 --> 00:11:02.759
And I was talking about here's something I used to do,

141
00:11:04.399 --> 00:11:10.399
not for chronic pain necessarily, but definitely for my own

142
00:11:11.879 --> 00:11:19.639
safety as far as I suppose germs. I know it's

143
00:11:19.679 --> 00:11:23.279
going to sound a bit weird, but in the past,

144
00:11:23.320 --> 00:11:25.519
when I've been sitting on the bus, I do a

145
00:11:25.519 --> 00:11:28.799
few different things when I'm sitting on the bus. Nothing illegal.

146
00:11:28.879 --> 00:11:34.080
I'm talking about in my mind, and I would imagine

147
00:11:34.080 --> 00:11:38.519
that I was surrounded by a bubble, like a protective bubble,

148
00:11:39.399 --> 00:11:41.639
so that if there's anyone around that was coffeeing or

149
00:11:41.679 --> 00:11:45.960
sneezing or breathing, most of them were breathing, but just

150
00:11:46.320 --> 00:11:52.120
to keep their germs away from me. And this is

151
00:11:52.279 --> 00:11:59.639
long before any kind of international incident that led to

152
00:11:59.679 --> 00:12:02.639
people wear masks. I mean this is like ten fifteen

153
00:12:02.720 --> 00:12:11.000
years ago, and it just eased my attension, caused me

154
00:12:11.080 --> 00:12:15.720
to feel more relaxed by imagining that that barrier was

155
00:12:15.720 --> 00:12:23.320
there and it wasn't just a barrier from germs and stuff.

156
00:12:23.360 --> 00:12:29.559
In my mind, it was also a barrier from negativity.

157
00:12:30.200 --> 00:12:32.600
But then I realized I kind of added to it,

158
00:12:33.279 --> 00:12:38.559
and I started sending healing energy to other people, imagined

159
00:12:38.600 --> 00:12:42.720
it raining down on them like sprinklers, like a smoke

160
00:12:42.759 --> 00:12:47.120
alarm sprinkler thing, because I realized I was focusing too

161
00:12:47.200 --> 00:12:52.360
much on me and realizing that actually by sending out

162
00:12:53.200 --> 00:12:56.840
healing to them would be more beneficial to me than

163
00:12:56.879 --> 00:13:02.600
trying to keep them out. And sometimes I actually imagine

164
00:13:02.600 --> 00:13:06.080
that I all had bubbles around them, each being protected

165
00:13:07.200 --> 00:13:10.759
but at the same time filling up with healing energy.

166
00:13:12.000 --> 00:13:18.960
Now I realize it sounds a bit wacky, maybe, and

167
00:13:19.000 --> 00:13:24.039
it's just it's the imagination, that's all. But I found

168
00:13:24.080 --> 00:13:32.399
it helped I did. So you've got empowerment where you

169
00:13:32.480 --> 00:13:35.600
think about things that help you to feel more in control.

170
00:13:37.960 --> 00:13:42.320
I guess being reminded that you have a lot more

171
00:13:42.480 --> 00:13:47.399
control over how you feel that maybe you realized before.

172
00:13:48.679 --> 00:13:52.759
And if you listen to this and you're an adult,

173
00:13:53.120 --> 00:13:58.200
you'll know this anyway. There's more control and now over

174
00:13:58.320 --> 00:14:02.559
maybe how you react, how you feel then you maybe

175
00:14:02.639 --> 00:14:04.919
did when you was little, when you was a young kid.

176
00:14:08.440 --> 00:14:12.919
Then there's muscles. Uh whatever. Look, that's the other thing

177
00:14:14.120 --> 00:14:19.840
that's weird. I've just clicked on the wrong page. What

178
00:14:19.960 --> 00:14:29.919
other things have we got here? I was all right

179
00:14:30.000 --> 00:14:31.759
until a second ago. Now it's just all gone, it's

180
00:14:31.799 --> 00:14:33.480
all disappeared.

181
00:14:37.279 --> 00:14:39.200
In her.

182
00:14:39.840 --> 00:14:50.200
Really, it's very okay. So post hypnotic cues teaching a

183
00:14:50.200 --> 00:14:53.360
brain to automatically dial down pain. So I've done recordings

184
00:14:53.399 --> 00:14:59.440
on that. It's something A lot of that is to

185
00:14:59.440 --> 00:15:06.919
do with a expectation, and expectation can be very powerfully

186
00:15:07.440 --> 00:15:18.759
affected by previous memories and previous physical feelings. So by

187
00:15:18.919 --> 00:15:22.759
listening to this recording, let's say, for example, you feel

188
00:15:22.759 --> 00:15:26.919
more relaxed. That's the very least really that I would

189
00:15:26.919 --> 00:15:32.039
hope that you'd benefit from, is she'd feel more relaxed,

190
00:15:33.759 --> 00:15:36.480
feel calmer, Your mind would be a bit slower, and

191
00:15:36.559 --> 00:15:44.559
maybe your body feel more peaceful, and you may have

192
00:15:44.639 --> 00:15:47.679
a sense of well being, maybe more of a sense

193
00:15:47.720 --> 00:16:01.200
of positivity even which is quite nice. But then the

194
00:16:01.240 --> 00:16:03.919
next time you listen to my recording, whether it's a

195
00:16:03.960 --> 00:16:06.720
new one, whether it's the old one, whether it's one

196
00:16:06.759 --> 00:16:10.279
from ten years ago or one from you know, a

197
00:16:10.360 --> 00:16:12.480
new one that I do, or even a different kind

198
00:16:12.480 --> 00:16:21.879
of podcast. You'll almost be expecting to feel relaxed. And

199
00:16:21.919 --> 00:16:25.960
when you hear my voice, there's that maybe that expectation,

200
00:16:26.080 --> 00:16:30.840
and when you do hear my voice, you'll feel calmer,

201
00:16:31.120 --> 00:16:34.720
and your mind will slow down, maybe you'll drift. Maybe

202
00:16:34.759 --> 00:16:44.600
your mind will drift and absorb the just to absorb

203
00:16:44.720 --> 00:16:48.799
anything that is useful for you that I say, because

204
00:16:48.840 --> 00:16:50.399
I'm going to be saying a lot of things, and

205
00:16:50.480 --> 00:16:52.320
some of us is going to be a bit pointless,

206
00:16:52.960 --> 00:16:58.759
but some of it might really be useful and that

207
00:16:58.799 --> 00:17:06.960
can just be absorbed into your mind and potentially shape

208
00:17:07.119 --> 00:17:10.440
the way that you feel about your body and your

209
00:17:10.480 --> 00:17:14.880
physical sensations in a more positive way moving into the

210
00:17:14.920 --> 00:17:22.640
future as well as now. So other things strengths of

211
00:17:22.759 --> 00:17:25.319
some of these things. So you've got highly evidence based

212
00:17:26.640 --> 00:17:32.559
and so these techniques are evidence based and not just

213
00:17:32.759 --> 00:17:35.720
made up random stuff. I do make up a lot

214
00:17:35.720 --> 00:17:39.319
of random stuff as well, But I like that. I

215
00:17:39.480 --> 00:17:47.359
like that idea of trying things out because it's never ending.

216
00:17:48.000 --> 00:17:50.839
That you're We're never going to run out of ideas.

217
00:17:53.200 --> 00:17:57.799
And that's why I've spent nineteen years doing this stuff,

218
00:17:58.359 --> 00:18:00.960
is because I never run out of ideas. There's always

219
00:18:01.000 --> 00:18:04.000
something new that I can try. Doesn't mean it's going

220
00:18:04.079 --> 00:18:10.920
to be perfect, but it might be really good. It

221
00:18:11.000 --> 00:18:13.200
might be useful. And ance that's the bottle, that's the

222
00:18:13.279 --> 00:18:22.400
name of the day. Useful. Does it help? A relaxation

223
00:18:22.680 --> 00:18:29.720
equals chronic pain relief? You know that's just again that's

224
00:18:29.799 --> 00:18:35.279
based in science, not an opinion. So when you relax,

225
00:18:37.920 --> 00:18:43.279
your focus changes in the same way as when you

226
00:18:43.359 --> 00:18:48.359
listen to me. Your focus changes, and it would do

227
00:18:49.039 --> 00:18:53.039
regardless of where you were, what you were doing, how

228
00:18:53.119 --> 00:18:58.440
you were feeling before, who you're with. You know, even

229
00:18:58.440 --> 00:19:01.720
if you was at a birthday path you decided to

230
00:19:01.759 --> 00:19:03.759
go and sit in the guarden and listen to this,

231
00:19:05.359 --> 00:19:07.319
You're going to feel very different to how you felt

232
00:19:07.319 --> 00:19:12.240
when you was at the party. You're not going to

233
00:19:12.480 --> 00:19:17.200
notice necessarily the other people as much as you used

234
00:19:17.200 --> 00:19:19.960
to when you were there, even though it might be

235
00:19:20.000 --> 00:19:24.359
the same volume level of the people of the party

236
00:19:24.559 --> 00:19:30.720
of music maybe, but as you listen to my voice,

237
00:19:31.079 --> 00:19:36.359
you would go more inward, more focused on how you

238
00:19:36.440 --> 00:19:48.559
feel calmer and more relaxed and peaceful. Everything I do,

239
00:19:48.680 --> 00:19:55.880
I try and make practical and user friendly, and the exercises,

240
00:19:55.880 --> 00:19:58.680
whether they're my exercises or ones that are just copied.

241
00:20:00.079 --> 00:20:03.880
Don't really take credit for anything that I say, because

242
00:20:04.720 --> 00:20:06.680
I don't know how much of it is unique and

243
00:20:06.720 --> 00:20:11.400
how much of it is just stuff that I've remembered

244
00:20:11.440 --> 00:20:15.759
from books I've read or lectures I've listened to, or whatever.

245
00:20:17.640 --> 00:20:20.359
But hopefully it's useful. If it does come from somewhere

246
00:20:20.400 --> 00:20:22.440
that I know, I do try and give the source,

247
00:20:23.319 --> 00:20:25.680
and like today, I'm given a source from this book.

248
00:20:26.960 --> 00:20:33.400
But even if I go through a technique, because I

249
00:20:33.400 --> 00:20:35.839
don't go through any of these techniques, probably without even

250
00:20:35.880 --> 00:20:38.319
looking at the book, just with an outline of it,

251
00:20:42.680 --> 00:20:46.279
but I will probably do it differently. I'll add my

252
00:20:46.359 --> 00:20:50.680
own or spin, which means I might not be doing

253
00:20:50.720 --> 00:20:56.920
it properly, but hey, customizable. I think the point is

254
00:20:57.799 --> 00:21:01.440
you can use these in a way that suits you

255
00:21:04.640 --> 00:21:06.880
because you don't have to do anything. You don't have

256
00:21:06.960 --> 00:21:11.160
to listen to this. It's not compulsory, so the fact

257
00:21:11.359 --> 00:21:17.200
that you remember the actually you're choosing to spend your

258
00:21:17.240 --> 00:21:21.640
time and time is very valuable. You're choosing to spend

259
00:21:21.680 --> 00:21:28.519
your time listening to my squeaky voice. It can give

260
00:21:28.559 --> 00:21:33.599
you a little bit of comfort, a little bit of relief.

261
00:21:35.079 --> 00:21:40.279
You know that this is your choice to listen, and

262
00:21:40.319 --> 00:21:45.000
you're choosing to listen because you're expecting to feel more comfort,

263
00:21:46.640 --> 00:21:58.319
more peace, and that's useful. So and it's that the

264
00:21:58.319 --> 00:22:03.640
potential weaknesses of listening into this. I'm not taking on

265
00:22:03.640 --> 00:22:07.759
a role as a therapist, and it's not the same

266
00:22:07.799 --> 00:22:09.720
as a one on one session. If he was in

267
00:22:09.759 --> 00:22:14.119
a room with someone going through this stuff, it'd be different.

268
00:22:15.079 --> 00:22:17.279
I mean, this might be better than that. I don't know.

269
00:22:17.319 --> 00:22:21.640
It depends on what it shouldn't be. It should be

270
00:22:21.640 --> 00:22:25.640
better if you're in a room with a therapist, but

271
00:22:26.240 --> 00:22:29.359
you're probably not going to get it's not going to

272
00:22:29.400 --> 00:22:33.200
be the same. You won't be sitting in a room

273
00:22:33.240 --> 00:22:37.079
with a therapist just rambling on like this because that's

274
00:22:37.640 --> 00:22:39.839
this isn't professional. This is not a professional way to

275
00:22:39.880 --> 00:22:40.160
do it.

276
00:22:41.559 --> 00:22:42.079
This is.

277
00:22:43.519 --> 00:22:50.200
Relatively unfocused in a sense of I'm not asking you

278
00:22:50.279 --> 00:22:55.759
to do anything. I'm not trying to control your thoughts

279
00:22:56.359 --> 00:22:59.559
or manipulate you, even in a positive way. I mean

280
00:23:00.160 --> 00:23:03.000
not trying to get you to focus on this. Now

281
00:23:03.039 --> 00:23:07.559
do this now, one, two, three, four. And even if

282
00:23:07.599 --> 00:23:14.400
I do read out you know an exercise, you can

283
00:23:14.480 --> 00:23:16.240
do it or not do it. I might go through

284
00:23:16.279 --> 00:23:17.839
it and I'm going to do this and I'll do it.

285
00:23:18.599 --> 00:23:21.880
Do it or not, it's up to you. But it's

286
00:23:21.920 --> 00:23:34.680
just me going through some things. So the pain dissociation technique,

287
00:23:34.680 --> 00:23:38.279
that's the one I'm going to focus on today. From

288
00:23:38.319 --> 00:23:42.599
that book. Now it's not from that, but I mean

289
00:23:42.720 --> 00:23:45.519
it is from that book, but it's not. It's not

290
00:23:45.519 --> 00:23:51.559
an original idea. Is something that's been around for probably centuries,

291
00:23:55.960 --> 00:24:04.319
but it's it's very powerful, and dissociation can be it

292
00:24:04.319 --> 00:24:08.960
can be really easy for some reason for children, really

293
00:24:09.000 --> 00:24:16.160
really young people have a tendency to dissociate a lot easier,

294
00:24:16.640 --> 00:24:21.359
and imagination to imagine things that you know, it can

295
00:24:21.400 --> 00:24:23.799
be a little bit easier for really really young kids.

296
00:24:25.720 --> 00:24:28.640
So hypnosis, for example, I'm not I'm not going to

297
00:24:28.680 --> 00:24:34.799
I'm not doing hypnosis here, but hypnosis really could be useful.

298
00:24:34.920 --> 00:24:37.839
So if you're if you've got a child that needs

299
00:24:38.119 --> 00:24:42.920
that could do with us help with hypnosis and stuff,

300
00:24:43.720 --> 00:24:50.559
then seek out a professional hypnotist or hypnotherapist. And maybe

301
00:24:50.759 --> 00:24:54.240
or if you've got a clinical psychologist that does hypnosis,

302
00:24:55.400 --> 00:24:57.799
and I'm pretty certain that's a young child, you can

303
00:24:57.839 --> 00:25:04.000
sit in a room with them as well, and it

304
00:25:04.039 --> 00:25:08.799
could be something really useful. I mean, this isn't aimed

305
00:25:08.960 --> 00:25:11.680
at I mean, it's aimed at anyone that wants to

306
00:25:11.720 --> 00:25:14.880
listen to it. It's not aimed at children, it's not

307
00:25:14.920 --> 00:25:17.440
aimed at adults. It's just aimed at whoever wants to listen.

308
00:25:19.880 --> 00:25:23.960
Generally at adults, to be fair, but whoever. I don't

309
00:25:23.960 --> 00:25:25.960
know if little kids would want to be listening to this.

310
00:25:28.079 --> 00:25:29.880
I can't imagine anyone would want to be listening to

311
00:25:29.920 --> 00:25:36.000
this really in a way. But oh the positivity, so

312
00:25:36.440 --> 00:25:46.880
pained association. It makes sense, really, doesn't it. So you're focusing,

313
00:25:47.160 --> 00:25:49.319
there's different ways of doing it. You can focus on

314
00:25:49.359 --> 00:25:56.200
something else, you know, when you're watching a movie, you're

315
00:25:56.279 --> 00:25:59.960
listening to a song, you're having a conversation with somebody,

316
00:26:00.839 --> 00:26:07.920
maybe you're traveling in a car, and it's not so

317
00:26:08.000 --> 00:26:16.400
much dissociation from what you're doing, it's you're focusing on

318
00:26:16.440 --> 00:26:19.240
something else. So instead of focusing on that part of

319
00:26:19.279 --> 00:26:22.279
your body that you may have been focusing on before,

320
00:26:23.759 --> 00:26:29.960
you're now focusing on an outside external stimuli or stimulus.

321
00:26:31.279 --> 00:26:35.200
So right now it's my voice and you might be

322
00:26:35.279 --> 00:26:40.359
thinking his voice is so squeaky. Why is it so squeaky.

323
00:26:41.359 --> 00:26:47.400
He's like like a little squeaky dog's toy. Oh what's

324
00:26:47.440 --> 00:26:52.519
going on? He can't be human? And yeah, I am

325
00:26:52.680 --> 00:26:56.359
kind of I'm kind of an alien. But you know,

326
00:26:57.440 --> 00:26:59.839
I don't know. I'm waiting. I'm waiting for the more

327
00:26:59.839 --> 00:27:03.119
of a ship to come back and get me. Hasn't yet.

328
00:27:05.119 --> 00:27:10.680
So you've got different ways. I mean, you can move

329
00:27:11.599 --> 00:27:17.839
that physical feeling mentally and imaginatively so it no longer

330
00:27:17.920 --> 00:27:22.880
dominates your consciousness. And that's one of those things is

331
00:27:22.880 --> 00:27:27.039
we get more of what we think about. Whatever you

332
00:27:27.119 --> 00:27:29.759
focus on is what you're going to get more of.

333
00:27:32.119 --> 00:27:35.200
And it's it's just standard. We all kind of know that, really,

334
00:27:35.279 --> 00:27:40.599
don't we. You know, if you're gonna if you if

335
00:27:40.640 --> 00:27:45.440
you focus on your right knee or if you, let's

336
00:27:45.519 --> 00:27:52.400
say you, it could be anything kind of like sometimes

337
00:27:52.440 --> 00:27:57.839
Vinnie does a big old fart because I'm focusing on it.

338
00:27:57.839 --> 00:28:01.839
It's all I can smell. That might not be a

339
00:28:01.839 --> 00:28:07.279
good example, but there's this car I'm locally where I

340
00:28:07.319 --> 00:28:10.160
live and they parked on the pavement. It's a big

341
00:28:10.240 --> 00:28:12.240
car and you can't literally have to walk in the

342
00:28:12.279 --> 00:28:15.200
road to get around it. It's bugged me a little bit,

343
00:28:15.279 --> 00:28:18.039
it has. It's bugged me. Its bugged me. And there's

344
00:28:18.079 --> 00:28:20.839
a couple of people in wheelchairs that can't get past.

345
00:28:21.920 --> 00:28:30.480
And I probably wouldn't even notice it. I might be like, oh,

346
00:28:31.079 --> 00:28:33.519
but I got talking to this man in a wheelchair

347
00:28:33.519 --> 00:28:36.200
and he said he had problems with someone that was

348
00:28:36.240 --> 00:28:38.359
parked on the pavement and he couldn't get passed. And

349
00:28:39.400 --> 00:28:41.079
I don't think it was even his car, but it

350
00:28:41.160 --> 00:28:45.920
kind of a connected the two together, and whenever I

351
00:28:45.960 --> 00:28:54.559
go past it, I've been having this negative feeling. But

352
00:28:54.680 --> 00:28:58.680
today I thought, you know what, what's the point in that?

353
00:29:01.839 --> 00:29:05.960
There's nothing I can do about it. There is nothing

354
00:29:06.480 --> 00:29:10.400
because the law doesn't prevent them from doing it. It's

355
00:29:10.440 --> 00:29:14.279
against the law to park on the pavement, but there's

356
00:29:14.279 --> 00:29:17.400
no fine, there's no there's no there's nothing for it.

357
00:29:17.400 --> 00:29:20.480
It's like profit against the law in London and you

358
00:29:20.519 --> 00:29:24.880
will get towed away or whatever, but outside of London generally,

359
00:29:25.559 --> 00:29:27.880
it's just one of those laws that the police don't

360
00:29:28.200 --> 00:29:32.240
do anything about. You're not allowed to, but do what

361
00:29:32.279 --> 00:29:39.039
you want is that's kind of the attitude. So I

362
00:29:39.119 --> 00:29:41.440
just let it go. I don't focus on it anymore.

363
00:29:41.559 --> 00:29:46.319
I'll focus on something else. I'll focus on it now though,

364
00:29:46.359 --> 00:29:53.039
aren't they? But but sometimes focusing on that. When I'm

365
00:29:53.079 --> 00:29:55.440
focusing on that car, I'm not thinking about my lower

366
00:29:55.519 --> 00:29:59.599
back where my arthritis is. It's weird, but I don't

367
00:29:59.640 --> 00:30:02.160
want to re placed that with something that's also negative,

368
00:30:03.480 --> 00:30:06.880
or that might have a negative kind of feeling or

369
00:30:06.920 --> 00:30:11.720
an unpleasurable feeling. Rather, there's nothing negative about my back.

370
00:30:11.759 --> 00:30:16.359
It's just that it's just a physical thing. It's not

371
00:30:16.519 --> 00:30:20.119
negative or positive. It's just it is what it is.

372
00:30:22.720 --> 00:30:29.559
Something to deal with, isn't it. And there's so many

373
00:30:29.599 --> 00:30:33.920
ways of dissociation. The move in the pain. That's something

374
00:30:33.920 --> 00:30:39.119
I find interesting because I learned some of this years ago.

375
00:30:40.000 --> 00:30:44.400
I'm talking for when I first got into hypnosis and

376
00:30:44.559 --> 00:30:50.160
NLP two thousand and no. Nineteen ninety eight, sorry, nineteen

377
00:30:50.240 --> 00:30:53.640
ninety eight. I think it's around ninety nine that I

378
00:30:53.720 --> 00:30:57.880
learned this technique, and it was it was about moving

379
00:30:58.599 --> 00:31:03.720
the physical discomfort or that physical feeling. It's called it

380
00:31:03.839 --> 00:31:08.079
feeling because it may have changed anyway the physical feeling

381
00:31:08.240 --> 00:31:11.200
from the part of the body is currently at to

382
00:31:11.279 --> 00:31:14.359
a different part of the body. And this is based

383
00:31:14.400 --> 00:31:17.000
on I'm pretty sure it's Milton nature Erickson, but it

384
00:31:17.079 --> 00:31:20.880
might have been another hypnotist. And they said to their

385
00:31:20.920 --> 00:31:26.440
client or their patient, right, so it's difficult, you know,

386
00:31:26.720 --> 00:31:30.920
it's the patient was saying, it's unbearable and I can't

387
00:31:30.920 --> 00:31:34.799
handle asard, where would you be able to handle it?

388
00:31:37.200 --> 00:31:40.359
And the patient said, what do you mean weird? Would

389
00:31:40.359 --> 00:31:41.160
I be able to so?

390
00:31:41.279 --> 00:31:41.480
Well?

391
00:31:41.559 --> 00:31:44.839
You said, it's like it's in a lower back, which

392
00:31:46.319 --> 00:31:49.680
is causing problems like you know, walking around or whatever.

393
00:31:50.759 --> 00:31:55.759
Where would it not be a problem. In fact, I

394
00:31:55.799 --> 00:31:58.880
don't think. I think this patient might have said, I

395
00:31:58.880 --> 00:32:00.920
wish it was in my I wish it was in

396
00:32:00.920 --> 00:32:05.640
my finger. So he said, you prefer it to be

397
00:32:05.640 --> 00:32:09.640
in your finger? She said, yeah, I don't because it

398
00:32:09.680 --> 00:32:11.720
wouldn't bother me. Then it's like it's in my finger.

399
00:32:11.920 --> 00:32:14.599
So what, it's not going to affect my my ability,

400
00:32:14.960 --> 00:32:17.160
it's not going to affect my day. It's just going

401
00:32:17.200 --> 00:32:21.559
to be irritating. I can handle irritation, and I'll be

402
00:32:21.559 --> 00:32:26.519
distracted anyway from that by other things irritating don't bother me.

403
00:32:27.559 --> 00:32:32.079
But what I've got at the moment does. So what

404
00:32:32.119 --> 00:32:35.680
he did is he got her to move that physical

405
00:32:35.960 --> 00:32:41.440
feeling from let's say a lower back, just move it

406
00:32:42.599 --> 00:32:46.720
into a finger. There's different ways. You can just imagine

407
00:32:46.759 --> 00:32:53.240
it moving out of your body and just moving into

408
00:32:53.279 --> 00:32:58.640
your finger, and you can rehearse this feeling. You can

409
00:32:58.680 --> 00:33:01.519
imagine different feeling is where you can just take a

410
00:33:01.599 --> 00:33:06.720
little bit of time. And the weird thing about it is,

411
00:33:07.119 --> 00:33:10.920
so they say, if I focus on my right finger,

412
00:33:13.079 --> 00:33:15.839
the end of my right big finger, is it a

413
00:33:15.880 --> 00:33:19.039
big what is so big thing? Because the big thing

414
00:33:19.119 --> 00:33:21.039
is the middle one, isn't it? First finger?

415
00:33:21.079 --> 00:33:21.680
And the one next?

416
00:33:21.720 --> 00:33:25.039
Sort of fun So if I focus on the end

417
00:33:25.039 --> 00:33:29.720
of that, it's weird because as I focus on it,

418
00:33:29.720 --> 00:33:35.119
it's a little bit pulsating, just a little bit. So

419
00:33:35.200 --> 00:33:38.720
if I move the feeling that i'd want to move

420
00:33:38.759 --> 00:33:42.240
the feeling if I focus on my lower back, and

421
00:33:42.680 --> 00:33:44.640
you know, maybe you focused on the part of your

422
00:33:44.640 --> 00:33:47.759
body that you wanted to if you want to do,

423
00:33:47.799 --> 00:33:50.079
you know, it's up to you. But if I focus

424
00:33:50.119 --> 00:33:53.960
on my back, on my lower back, then I focus

425
00:33:54.039 --> 00:34:03.000
on my right finger. Just knows how my right finger

426
00:34:03.079 --> 00:34:13.039
feels and I'll focus back on the body part straight away.

427
00:34:13.079 --> 00:34:18.480
It's changed. It's really weird. It's weird. It's all I

428
00:34:18.480 --> 00:34:24.119
don't know. Don't ask me why, but it's changed. It's

429
00:34:24.119 --> 00:34:28.440
still there's still something there, but it's changed. And I'll

430
00:34:28.480 --> 00:34:34.239
focus on my right finger again, and it's there's a

431
00:34:34.280 --> 00:34:39.960
different feeling in my right finger, but it's not it's

432
00:34:40.000 --> 00:34:47.119
not unpleasant. It's just a feeling that wasn't there before,

433
00:34:48.159 --> 00:34:58.079
like I don't know, like maybe a heaviness or tightness.

434
00:34:58.119 --> 00:35:00.800
Maybe it just just feels a a little bit different.

435
00:35:01.920 --> 00:35:05.719
So I moved back to my to the body parts.

436
00:35:05.800 --> 00:35:11.760
So if you move back to your body part, focus

437
00:35:11.880 --> 00:35:16.960
on there. For some reason, there's not a lot to

438
00:35:17.000 --> 00:35:22.119
focus on. And I'd be understandable if it was McGrain,

439
00:35:22.480 --> 00:35:25.960
But this is me a lower back, like it hasn't shrunk.

440
00:35:28.719 --> 00:35:30.760
It's not a lot there though. It's not not a

441
00:35:30.760 --> 00:35:34.280
lot going on. So I'll go back to my finger again,

442
00:35:36.599 --> 00:35:45.360
focus on that. It doesn't feel pleasurable, I'll be honest.

443
00:35:45.639 --> 00:35:51.079
My finger doesn't. It doesn't feel doesn't really feel horrible, eive,

444
00:35:51.119 --> 00:35:56.000
it just feels a bit different, a little bit different.

445
00:35:56.039 --> 00:36:03.079
It's I guess it's a unique perspective. It's going to

446
00:36:03.159 --> 00:36:10.159
have a different physical sensation to my lower back anyway.

447
00:36:11.840 --> 00:36:16.440
It's almost like the nervous system is confused by the

448
00:36:16.519 --> 00:36:22.119
focusing on one to the other and the idea even

449
00:36:22.159 --> 00:36:26.719
though I'm not actually trying to move it really, but

450
00:36:26.800 --> 00:36:31.800
the idea of moving it from your body to your finger.

451
00:36:42.199 --> 00:36:45.840
And it's a feeling. It's almost not numbness, but a

452
00:36:45.880 --> 00:36:54.960
little bit of little bits of fizziness I suppose, kind

453
00:36:54.960 --> 00:36:58.880
of like pins and needles a little bit. And I noticed, like,

454
00:36:58.920 --> 00:37:01.079
obviously nothing a way about it, because I'm the one

455
00:37:01.119 --> 00:37:06.679
that's caused it, and I so I go back to

456
00:37:06.719 --> 00:37:12.039
my back again. So you go back to your body.

457
00:37:12.760 --> 00:37:14.880
By the way, you might hear some shouting in the garden,

458
00:37:14.920 --> 00:37:19.039
but it's because it's a beautiful day and the sun

459
00:37:19.159 --> 00:37:27.559
gets the shouters out. The shouters. This is weird. I

460
00:37:27.679 --> 00:37:31.079
focused on the back. It's almost like it's hiding from me.

461
00:37:36.800 --> 00:37:40.159
And as I here is a weird thing. Every time

462
00:37:40.199 --> 00:37:43.280
I go back, you go back to your body, and

463
00:37:43.360 --> 00:37:46.320
it kind of seems to bounce off onto your finger,

464
00:37:47.159 --> 00:37:52.320
like that focus goes straight to the finger. It's like

465
00:37:52.440 --> 00:37:56.480
it's becoming harder to focus on my body because it

466
00:37:56.519 --> 00:38:07.079
keeps bouncing back to the finger. That's the focus. Ah,

467
00:38:07.639 --> 00:38:11.519
I'm just moving my finger around a little bit. It

468
00:38:11.679 --> 00:38:15.360
just it does feel different the end of it. But

469
00:38:15.400 --> 00:38:29.920
it's yeah, it's weird. That's strange. Yeah, So that's sort

470
00:38:29.960 --> 00:38:36.000
of something you could do, moving it, detaching, shifting, or

471
00:38:36.039 --> 00:38:43.920
even distancing the physical feeling from you. So you could

472
00:38:43.960 --> 00:38:49.880
just imagine stepping out of your body, just leaving your

473
00:38:49.880 --> 00:38:54.840
body behind and just stepping out. But the version of

474
00:38:54.880 --> 00:38:57.280
you that you step out, it's still your body, but

475
00:38:57.360 --> 00:39:01.000
you've left that one part of your body behind and

476
00:39:01.039 --> 00:39:09.679
you just move away. I guess, almost like waking, kind

477
00:39:09.679 --> 00:39:12.199
of like astra walking the way, kind of like you're

478
00:39:12.559 --> 00:39:16.079
an out of body experience, but not really. You're just

479
00:39:16.480 --> 00:39:21.960
moved away from that physical feeling that you had before

480
00:39:22.559 --> 00:39:28.880
and you just move away from it, have some distance

481
00:39:29.039 --> 00:39:37.000
from it. And this can work for lots of different

482
00:39:37.079 --> 00:39:39.480
things as well, can't it. I don't know about you,

483
00:39:39.559 --> 00:39:45.199
but there's been times when sometimes just having some distance,

484
00:39:45.800 --> 00:39:51.159
some physical distance from a situation, whether it's a person,

485
00:39:51.639 --> 00:39:55.440
whether it's a relationship, whether it's a job, whether it's

486
00:39:55.760 --> 00:40:01.320
where I live, just sometimes a little bit of even

487
00:40:01.320 --> 00:40:03.639
if it's just a couple of miles just to walk

488
00:40:03.679 --> 00:40:10.639
around field, a little bit of distance can really be useful.

489
00:40:19.440 --> 00:40:23.760
Now neuroscience, because this is all based in I think

490
00:40:23.760 --> 00:40:27.760
with neuroscience. The weird thing about it is what's already

491
00:40:27.840 --> 00:40:32.679
been used for decades and maybe centuries has now been

492
00:40:32.880 --> 00:40:40.719
proven to work scientifically. It's always worked for those that

493
00:40:40.760 --> 00:40:46.079
it works for. But now neuroscience, now it's kind of

494
00:40:46.079 --> 00:40:51.039
come along the last twenty years or whatever and can

495
00:40:51.119 --> 00:41:00.599
almost explain why this stuff works in a scientific way

496
00:41:01.159 --> 00:41:05.760
when before and I kind of still have the attitude,

497
00:41:05.800 --> 00:41:10.440
really it works, it works, it works brilliant, But I

498
00:41:10.480 --> 00:41:13.880
do realize and I am more interested in why and

499
00:41:14.039 --> 00:41:19.039
how than I used to be, so I try to

500
00:41:19.519 --> 00:41:28.079
include factual information in these recordings around things like neuroscience

501
00:41:28.159 --> 00:41:35.599
and scientific studies. So neuroscience has shown that at tension

502
00:41:38.320 --> 00:41:46.079
amplifies let's say, focus or attention amplifies whatever physical experience

503
00:41:46.159 --> 00:41:58.559
you're focusing on, which means you get to choose what

504
00:41:58.599 --> 00:42:11.440
you focus on. And there's never only one physical feeling occurring.

505
00:42:13.199 --> 00:42:17.199
There's always more than one physical feeling happening at any

506
00:42:17.199 --> 00:42:22.199
one time. You've got a whole body. So with me

507
00:42:22.320 --> 00:42:26.400
for example, my lower back. I've got my arms, got

508
00:42:26.440 --> 00:42:30.079
my hands, got my legs, got my back, the upper

509
00:42:30.119 --> 00:42:34.679
back rather, I've got my chest, my stomach, my shoulders,

510
00:42:34.880 --> 00:42:40.960
my face. Most of that stuff's fine so far as

511
00:42:41.039 --> 00:42:45.920
to focus on my jaw, for example. And it's a

512
00:42:45.960 --> 00:42:48.320
little bit harder to focus on my jaw when I'm talking,

513
00:42:48.840 --> 00:42:53.320
but it still does. It's still relaxes even when I'm talking.

514
00:42:53.719 --> 00:43:01.320
When I focus on it and the feeling, the attention

515
00:43:01.599 --> 00:43:07.280
amplifies the feeling. And because I guess I'm fairly relaxed anyway,

516
00:43:09.840 --> 00:43:16.360
especially when I make these recordings, because I don't think

517
00:43:16.360 --> 00:43:18.639
it would really work that well if I was all

518
00:43:19.079 --> 00:43:23.760
tense and stressed. I mean, it defeats the object, doesn't it.

519
00:43:24.559 --> 00:43:30.599
And I think that would come across. And I'm fairly

520
00:43:31.599 --> 00:43:35.719
fairly calm when I do these and when I talk,

521
00:43:37.039 --> 00:43:46.760
and personally it says like neuroscience shows that attention amplifies

522
00:43:46.800 --> 00:43:52.840
a physical experience. I would agree. However, I'm going to add,

523
00:43:53.159 --> 00:44:01.639
and however, because I'm not saying I'm more than neuroscientists,

524
00:44:01.639 --> 00:44:04.239
because obviously I don't I know, but I might know

525
00:44:04.280 --> 00:44:06.880
some different things, but I don't know. I'm not an

526
00:44:06.920 --> 00:44:12.599
expert on anything apart from eating cookies. We're really good

527
00:44:12.599 --> 00:44:18.239
at eating cookies. I could win a gold medal at

528
00:44:18.320 --> 00:44:24.800
eating cookies. Not quantity, but just I'm just really good

529
00:44:24.800 --> 00:44:32.920
at eating them. So when it comes to meditation and

530
00:44:34.239 --> 00:44:42.519
something like a body scan, I've noticed over decades that

531
00:44:44.639 --> 00:44:49.960
just by focusing on the different parts of your body,

532
00:44:50.920 --> 00:44:58.840
they start to relax. So I think it's not just

533
00:44:59.440 --> 00:45:06.559
that the attention amplifies the physical sensation, but it's also

534
00:45:06.679 --> 00:45:11.760
dependent upon how or what you're thinking when you're focusing

535
00:45:12.440 --> 00:45:20.480
on that particular part of your body. So if it

536
00:45:20.519 --> 00:45:26.880
is if you're focusing on discomfort, for example, and that's

537
00:45:26.920 --> 00:45:30.199
what you're focusing on, and that's what you're thinking about,

538
00:45:30.639 --> 00:45:33.320
and that's you know, then it's going to get hot,

539
00:45:33.360 --> 00:45:38.079
it's going to get stronger, and it's going to amplify.

540
00:45:38.719 --> 00:45:40.400
But if you think about in the same way as

541
00:45:40.440 --> 00:45:42.800
if you think about a part of your body that

542
00:45:42.920 --> 00:45:46.400
feels relaxed and you're focusing on how relaxed it is,

543
00:45:46.480 --> 00:45:52.519
it's going to become more relaxed. But then if you

544
00:45:52.559 --> 00:45:55.199
think about you focus on a neutral part of your body,

545
00:45:55.639 --> 00:45:58.360
so maybe you're doing a body scan. I've done quite

546
00:45:58.360 --> 00:46:02.519
a few body scanned recordings where you're just listening and

547
00:46:02.599 --> 00:46:05.599
I'm going through the different parts of your body, starting

548
00:46:05.679 --> 00:46:10.000
the top of your head, your fore hair, your eyes,

549
00:46:12.679 --> 00:46:15.639
and I won't ask you to relax those parts of

550
00:46:15.679 --> 00:46:20.599
your body. And you might literally have just sat down

551
00:46:20.760 --> 00:46:25.920
or just laid down and only begun to listen to

552
00:46:26.039 --> 00:46:31.559
me at that point. So you're not bored yet, you

553
00:46:31.639 --> 00:46:34.199
might not be in a position of I might not

554
00:46:34.280 --> 00:46:41.800
have bored you into submission of feeling relaxed and calm.

555
00:46:41.840 --> 00:46:44.480
But by focusing on a neutral part of your body,

556
00:46:44.480 --> 00:46:51.320
a part that doesn't really it's not feeling particularly relaxed

557
00:46:51.480 --> 00:47:00.920
or particularly any other way, has a tendency of relaxing.

558
00:47:02.559 --> 00:47:05.760
But then when you're doing a body scan, you're focusing

559
00:47:06.239 --> 00:47:15.800
with the intent of comfort and peace, coming from a

560
00:47:15.840 --> 00:47:27.480
perspective of positivity, kindness, kindness towards yourself, feeling well towards yourself.

561
00:47:29.639 --> 00:47:33.639
So that has an effect. And the more, I don't

562
00:47:33.679 --> 00:47:38.119
think many people are going to listen to a recording,

563
00:47:38.800 --> 00:47:47.400
a mindfulness recording or a body scan recording without having

564
00:47:47.440 --> 00:47:53.480
a degree of expectation that they're going to relax, that

565
00:47:53.519 --> 00:47:56.000
you're going to relax all the different parts of your body.

566
00:47:57.159 --> 00:48:07.280
It's kind of implicit, I guess in the actual recording. Well,

567
00:48:10.400 --> 00:48:13.840
in the same way is if you focus on a

568
00:48:13.920 --> 00:48:24.320
part of your body and you're thinking differently about it.

569
00:48:25.719 --> 00:48:29.760
So if I focus on my lower back and if

570
00:48:29.800 --> 00:48:32.159
I'm expecting it to feel worse, it's going to start

571
00:48:32.159 --> 00:48:39.440
feeling worse if I'm expecting it to loosen, and almost

572
00:48:39.559 --> 00:48:43.360
like all the fibers are just I just had a

573
00:48:43.360 --> 00:48:50.679
little disturbisation there from a neighbor, but then he started barking,

574
00:48:52.000 --> 00:48:56.480
and what it was he's put sausages. His uncle from

575
00:48:56.480 --> 00:49:01.079
across the road or across the hallway got him some sausages.

576
00:49:04.000 --> 00:49:08.360
The thing is gives you an idea of his mentality. Finny,

577
00:49:09.079 --> 00:49:14.000
by the way, he's my little jack Russell. He's begging

578
00:49:14.159 --> 00:49:18.119
for one, right, it's already got one. He's dropped on

579
00:49:18.159 --> 00:49:21.679
the floor, and he's come for more because he tries

580
00:49:21.719 --> 00:49:24.760
to get as many as he can so then he

581
00:49:24.760 --> 00:49:28.000
can just enjoy the feast. There goes another one, though

582
00:49:28.400 --> 00:49:33.440
you're not getting any more to you're feeding them, right.

583
00:49:35.000 --> 00:49:37.239
I'm not one hundred percent sure what I was talking about,

584
00:49:37.760 --> 00:49:42.679
but I'll try and get back to it. So we're

585
00:49:42.679 --> 00:49:45.559
talking about focus really if you change where the attention

586
00:49:45.719 --> 00:49:56.239
goes and the brain lowers the intensity, and because it changes,

587
00:49:56.280 --> 00:49:59.159
I guess how the pain or the physical feeling is

588
00:49:59.239 --> 00:50:06.079
mentally cod did it's in the same way as some

589
00:50:06.199 --> 00:50:13.199
people without getting you know, weird. But some people enjoy

590
00:50:14.119 --> 00:50:17.840
a degree of or enjoy things that perhaps other people

591
00:50:17.880 --> 00:50:23.920
wouldn't when it comes to romantic encounters. And when I

592
00:50:23.920 --> 00:50:29.400
think about that, I'm thinking hot wax is one thing

593
00:50:29.440 --> 00:50:32.800
that comes to mind, which in a million years I

594
00:50:32.840 --> 00:50:38.440
would not, well, not in a million years, but actually,

595
00:50:38.440 --> 00:50:40.360
to be fair, I don't know anymore. But yeah, generally

596
00:50:40.400 --> 00:50:43.480
not something I would do. But some people love it

597
00:50:43.519 --> 00:50:47.360
and they don't. It's a it's a different feeling to

598
00:50:47.440 --> 00:50:50.559
what it would because I'm sure if someone just poured

599
00:50:50.599 --> 00:50:54.039
hot wax in them or hot poured hot wax on

600
00:50:54.199 --> 00:50:58.599
them while they were waiting on a bus, and they

601
00:50:58.639 --> 00:51:03.159
wouldn't enjoy it. They've probably been wouldn't sitting on a

602
00:51:03.199 --> 00:51:07.320
bus dressed in bondage gear that Yeah, anyway, let's move

603
00:51:07.360 --> 00:51:14.840
away from that. So feelings change, they feel differently depending

604
00:51:14.880 --> 00:51:21.000
on the situation and the scenario. I think he's hassling

605
00:51:21.000 --> 00:51:23.440
me again, all right, You want to know the sausage.

606
00:51:23.440 --> 00:51:27.199
You're not having the whole pack bin. You've been so good,

607
00:51:27.239 --> 00:51:31.360
you've left me alone. The music downstairs is now light louder,

608
00:51:37.039 --> 00:51:41.679
and he's been in and nicked some biscuits. He's a

609
00:51:41.679 --> 00:51:49.679
little thief, that one. So if you move it with

610
00:51:49.880 --> 00:51:54.280
the you know the dissociation, I mean, it can be

611
00:51:54.360 --> 00:52:01.760
dissociation when you focus on something completely separate. You know,

612
00:52:01.760 --> 00:52:04.400
if you're focusing on a telly, or you're focus on

613
00:52:05.440 --> 00:52:10.199
drawing a picture, focusing on music or maybe playing a

614
00:52:10.280 --> 00:52:17.800
musical instrument, it can change how you physically feel because

615
00:52:17.840 --> 00:52:20.480
you're not focusing on that part of the body that

616
00:52:20.559 --> 00:52:26.199
you were before, but in a sense of literally moving

617
00:52:26.920 --> 00:52:32.119
the physical sensation elsewhere to a different part of your

618
00:52:32.159 --> 00:52:36.679
body where it feels less harmful, as I said, like

619
00:52:36.760 --> 00:52:41.440
moving to your finger or to an object outside of

620
00:52:41.440 --> 00:52:45.480
the body. So you could, for example, move it into

621
00:52:45.519 --> 00:52:48.159
a imagine in your mind, you can move it into

622
00:52:48.159 --> 00:52:54.880
a balloon or a hot air balloon and just watch

623
00:52:54.920 --> 00:52:59.480
that balloon float away. Or you can imagine moving it

624
00:52:59.519 --> 00:53:06.639
into a and chucking that rock into the sea or

625
00:53:06.639 --> 00:53:14.119
off a cliff, giving you that distance. Again. You can

626
00:53:14.239 --> 00:53:19.719
imagine moving it into a visual container something like a

627
00:53:19.840 --> 00:53:25.480
box or a cloud, a flowing river. I quite liked

628
00:53:25.480 --> 00:53:29.800
the idea of the flowing river because anything you put

629
00:53:29.840 --> 00:53:33.320
in there, it would disperse, wouldn't it, because it's moved

630
00:53:33.440 --> 00:53:40.119
very quickly. But also it would just disperse, and it

631
00:53:40.159 --> 00:53:42.079
couldn't feel the same, and he wouldn't be able to

632
00:53:42.079 --> 00:53:46.840
get it back, you know, not easily. So if you

633
00:53:46.960 --> 00:53:50.719
drop that physical feeling, dropped it in a fast flowing river,

634
00:53:51.559 --> 00:53:59.199
sh it's kind of just gone off. Or imagine in

635
00:53:59.199 --> 00:54:02.840
the clouds, moving it into a cloud. But then you

636
00:54:02.960 --> 00:54:06.960
move up, take your eyes off the clouds for a second,

637
00:54:07.199 --> 00:54:09.480
and then you look back at the clouds. Where is it?

638
00:54:10.159 --> 00:54:13.800
Which cloud is it in? Because of the clouds are moving,

639
00:54:14.880 --> 00:54:17.519
they often look very very similar to each other, maybe

640
00:54:17.559 --> 00:54:24.119
different different sizes, slightly different colors, but they're moving. Maybe

641
00:54:24.320 --> 00:54:26.719
some signs seems like the clouds are moving to the right,

642
00:54:27.079 --> 00:54:29.400
and sometimes it seems like they're moving to the left.

643
00:54:30.760 --> 00:54:34.239
Sometimes they feel closer to the ground than further than

644
00:54:34.280 --> 00:54:38.800
to the ground further away. And it's kind of weird

645
00:54:39.000 --> 00:54:44.039
because also sometimes you know, it feels windy here on

646
00:54:44.079 --> 00:54:48.079
the ground where we are, the clouds don't seem to

647
00:54:48.119 --> 00:54:51.360
be moving at all, but other times when it's really

648
00:54:51.840 --> 00:54:56.920
really mild, just not even a really light breeze, and

649
00:54:56.960 --> 00:55:04.000
the clouds are moving quickly, so different ways. It tricks.

650
00:55:04.559 --> 00:55:11.480
It tricks the century pathways into disconnecting emotional issues connected

651
00:55:12.239 --> 00:55:15.519
to the part of your body, so that I guess

652
00:55:15.599 --> 00:55:20.840
that kind of that signal of danger being removed, realizing

653
00:55:20.960 --> 00:55:25.599
it's not danger, it's the opposite to that. It's peaceful,

654
00:55:25.639 --> 00:55:36.239
it's calm, it's safe. So examples I said, you can

655
00:55:36.320 --> 00:55:39.320
let a helium bloom. You can have a helium bloom

656
00:55:39.400 --> 00:55:44.360
tied to your wrist, and you can allow that feeling

657
00:55:44.400 --> 00:55:49.119
from your body to move all the way to where

658
00:55:49.119 --> 00:55:53.800
the helium bloom is bloom bloom, moving up the string

659
00:55:55.079 --> 00:55:58.960
and filling the helium bloom. Maybe it's an empty bloom.

660
00:55:59.440 --> 00:56:05.320
Maybe that that energy fills the blue nup and then

661
00:56:05.360 --> 00:56:08.920
you can just untie the string and watch it float away,

662
00:56:09.880 --> 00:56:19.840
higher and higher, further and further away. Or you can

663
00:56:20.239 --> 00:56:27.440
imagine placing that physical sensation inside a box, a big

664
00:56:27.480 --> 00:56:35.760
box or a small box with a soft, thick blanket inside.

665
00:56:36.639 --> 00:56:41.920
Close the lid and notice how your body feels lighter. Now,

666
00:56:54.800 --> 00:57:01.519
then you've got partials dissociation if total move feels overwhelming,

667
00:57:01.679 --> 00:57:09.519
just move some of the sensations elsewhere. So you could

668
00:57:09.559 --> 00:57:15.320
do the same techniques, but just some of them. There's

669
00:57:15.360 --> 00:57:18.320
no there's no right or wrong thing to do. There's

670
00:57:18.360 --> 00:57:22.440
no you don't have to do anything, but the idea

671
00:57:22.480 --> 00:57:27.119
of it, the wrapping your mind around the idea that

672
00:57:27.159 --> 00:57:29.960
actually this is possible. And these are things that have

673
00:57:30.039 --> 00:57:37.880
been done for many, many, many many years, like decades

674
00:57:37.880 --> 00:57:42.599
and decades and decades, tried and tested techniques handed down

675
00:57:42.719 --> 00:57:45.239
through the years. People have been doing them for a

676
00:57:45.320 --> 00:57:49.280
long time and helping millions of people around the world

677
00:57:49.519 --> 00:58:01.639
for long time. And why is it so effective? So

678
00:58:03.199 --> 00:58:09.639
it takes advantage of neuroplasticity, which is quite a new thing. Really,

679
00:58:10.239 --> 00:58:15.800
neuroscience isn't that new new, But neuroplasticity kind of blew

680
00:58:15.840 --> 00:58:17.960
my mind a bit when I first started reading about this.

681
00:58:18.960 --> 00:58:24.400
The idea that your brain is not set. Your brain

682
00:58:24.519 --> 00:58:27.880
can change, and I like to think of it like

683
00:58:28.159 --> 00:58:35.679
plast scene in this sense, it can change to suit

684
00:58:35.760 --> 00:58:40.960
the situation. So, for example, you introduce a new skill,

685
00:58:42.079 --> 00:58:50.000
whether it's learning a new language, learning a new instrument,

686
00:58:50.159 --> 00:59:00.360
musical instrument, starting a new job, our brain's changed, our

687
00:59:00.400 --> 00:59:06.400
brain's adapt so that those things that may have seemed

688
00:59:06.400 --> 00:59:11.480
impossible before, although it might not be easy to start with,

689
00:59:12.880 --> 00:59:20.840
become easier, and our brains change and adapt to what

690
00:59:20.880 --> 00:59:25.079
we do. Our brains adapt to what we focus on.

691
00:59:26.480 --> 00:59:32.320
It's quite I think it's quite. It's quite amazing really

692
00:59:32.639 --> 00:59:41.159
that a brain can rewire its own processing, you know, feelings.

693
00:59:41.760 --> 00:59:49.159
I think it's amazing. There's also that automatic loop or

694
00:59:49.199 --> 00:59:52.760
the automatic attention loop. You know, like when I was

695
00:59:52.800 --> 00:59:55.639
talking about my low back and then my finger, I

696
00:59:55.719 --> 01:00:04.400
kind of created a new automatic loop and changing the

697
01:00:04.480 --> 01:00:08.199
old one. Whether it was temporarily breaking the old one,

698
01:00:08.519 --> 01:00:11.440
whether just for a few minutes, but it's still it

699
01:00:11.639 --> 01:00:15.800
changed and started to set up a new loop because

700
01:00:16.400 --> 01:00:18.960
the more often I went back to focusing on my

701
01:00:19.000 --> 01:00:27.679
low back, it was bouncing straight back to my finger. Also,

702
01:00:28.039 --> 01:00:34.079
it gives you empowerment because you realize that you're not

703
01:00:34.159 --> 01:00:40.840
leaving things to chance. You're in control, you're taking charge

704
01:00:41.400 --> 01:00:48.360
of your own experience, and you can actively enjoy the

705
01:00:48.480 --> 01:01:00.360
changes that are occurring. So you've also I've got some

706
01:01:00.440 --> 01:01:04.360
other things you can do. You can fragment the physical feeling,

707
01:01:05.719 --> 01:01:11.599
but basically breaking it into smaller pieces mentally, moving them

708
01:01:12.000 --> 01:01:14.960
one by one. So I guess a little bit like

709
01:01:15.000 --> 01:01:17.400
a jigsaw puzzle. So if you've got that part of

710
01:01:17.400 --> 01:01:23.840
your body for me is my lower back, so that's

711
01:01:23.880 --> 01:01:26.559
the jigsaw puzzle. So you got the jigsaw puzzle of

712
01:01:26.679 --> 01:01:30.440
my whole body, it'd have to be quite a big

713
01:01:30.480 --> 01:01:38.800
jigsaw puzzle to be fair. And start to remove the

714
01:01:38.840 --> 01:01:43.519
pieces of jigsaw. Let's say it's just start ten thousand

715
01:01:43.559 --> 01:01:47.559
pieces or whatever. Start to remove the pieces connected to

716
01:01:47.599 --> 01:01:51.920
my back, my lower back, one by one, and just

717
01:01:52.039 --> 01:01:58.480
drop that in a river. It's probably not a good

718
01:01:58.480 --> 01:02:01.000
idea to be dropping bits of cardboarding the river, but

719
01:02:01.079 --> 01:02:05.599
you know, for the it's an imaginary thing. And then

720
01:02:05.639 --> 01:02:08.840
take another piece, maybe not connected to that, but another

721
01:02:08.840 --> 01:02:14.519
piece is also in that area, and just dropping it

722
01:02:16.079 --> 01:02:23.400
in that fast flowing stream, and then another piece, and

723
01:02:23.440 --> 01:02:26.880
then another piece, and you can just take your time

724
01:02:26.920 --> 01:02:35.079
with it, then another piece, then another piece. You can

725
01:02:35.159 --> 01:02:37.760
even focus on that part of your body and wherever

726
01:02:37.840 --> 01:02:43.000
you feel, whether it's a bit of pressure, whether it's

727
01:02:43.000 --> 01:02:46.039
a physical sensation, you can just focus on that part

728
01:02:46.079 --> 01:02:49.000
of body and imagine that's the piece that you're taking

729
01:02:49.039 --> 01:03:04.360
out and drop that in the stream. So by these

730
01:03:04.480 --> 01:03:14.480
kind of dissociation techniques. Physical discomfort is mentally moved, shrunk, softened,

731
01:03:14.599 --> 01:03:22.360
or transformed, and it can lead you to experienced reduced

732
01:03:23.079 --> 01:03:28.280
physical intensity that was there before. And I think it

733
01:03:28.280 --> 01:03:36.079
can restore your sense of personal control. You feel better,

734
01:03:36.199 --> 01:03:42.159
you feel more relaxed. You can actually feel good about

735
01:03:42.199 --> 01:03:52.800
yourself because you've made changes, and you know that you

736
01:03:52.880 --> 01:03:56.440
can make changes, because you've made changes in the past,

737
01:03:57.039 --> 01:04:07.760
and you can make more changes in the future. And

738
01:04:07.800 --> 01:04:12.800
that brings us to the end of this recording. So

739
01:04:13.119 --> 01:04:19.840
thank you for listening. Remember to be kind to yourself

740
01:04:19.880 --> 01:04:24.559
because you do deserve to be happy, and be gentle

741
01:04:24.599 --> 01:04:33.599
with yourself because you do deserve to feel safe. Lots

742
01:04:33.599 --> 01:04:55.719
of love. Bye. Relax in a more deep and meaningful way,

743
01:04:58.199 --> 01:05:03.239
maybe in a way that can not just allow you

744
01:05:03.719 --> 01:05:13.760
to feel calmer now and throughout the time we spend

745
01:05:13.800 --> 01:05:21.800
together here, not just relaxed at the end of the

746
01:05:21.880 --> 01:05:27.239
recording when it's finished and you can enjoy that sense

747
01:05:27.360 --> 01:05:44.000
of comfort and peace, But also I think it would

748
01:05:44.000 --> 01:05:59.800
be nice to have those feelings of relaxation continue for

749
01:06:00.079 --> 01:06:11.920
longer after the recording has ended, so that you can

750
01:06:13.599 --> 01:06:24.239
still benefit from listening to my voice. Maybe in a

751
01:06:24.280 --> 01:06:36.800
few hours time perhaps tomorrow, and then by listening regularly,

752
01:06:39.880 --> 01:06:44.440
especially if you find like some people do and myself

753
01:06:44.519 --> 01:06:49.119
as well, I sometimes I find one particular recording that

754
01:06:49.320 --> 01:06:57.960
really resonates with me, and I just listen to it

755
01:06:58.079 --> 01:07:10.960
over and over again every morning, every evening. There was

756
01:07:10.960 --> 01:07:18.119
this recording from We're going back to about nineteen ninety nine.

757
01:07:18.360 --> 01:07:23.800
It wasn't hypnosis, but it was a guided visualization, so

758
01:07:23.840 --> 01:07:30.840
it kind of was hypnosis really, and I managed to

759
01:07:30.880 --> 01:07:34.360
find it again and it still has the same effect

760
01:07:34.920 --> 01:07:46.519
on me. And part of it was the person's voice

761
01:07:46.960 --> 01:07:56.519
relaxed me. She just felt so peaceful, and I'd look

762
01:07:56.719 --> 01:08:03.679
forward to listening to her in the morning and in

763
01:08:03.760 --> 01:08:15.039
the evening. And I knew before even pressing the play

764
01:08:15.079 --> 01:08:23.239
button that since I've done that, pressed the play button.

765
01:08:24.039 --> 01:08:35.039
This was in the days of CD players press the

766
01:08:35.079 --> 01:08:40.439
play button. In fact, it might have even been a

767
01:08:40.520 --> 01:08:45.039
tape tape recorder. I'd lie down on the bed and

768
01:08:45.079 --> 01:09:03.560
then even without necessarily listening to her words because I

769
01:09:03.640 --> 01:09:11.119
had them memorized. Really, it was as if my body

770
01:09:13.039 --> 01:09:26.479
knew exactly what to do, and the muscles just almost

771
01:09:26.560 --> 01:09:46.960
went into automatic relaxation, and I remember my mind would

772
01:09:47.039 --> 01:09:58.399
slow down now now. I was listening to this recording

773
01:10:01.720 --> 01:10:07.800
in the early days of learning hypnosis, and long before

774
01:10:09.399 --> 01:10:17.439
I ever made any videos or audio recordings myself, because

775
01:10:17.479 --> 01:10:20.520
I didn't start doing that till two thousand and six.

776
01:10:27.279 --> 01:10:43.079
But I knew, I knew how helpful I found being

777
01:10:43.119 --> 01:10:52.319
able to just let go, to have that trust in

778
01:10:52.439 --> 01:11:02.840
the person that I'm listening to, knowing that it's going

779
01:11:02.880 --> 01:11:13.439
to be just as relaxing, if not more so. Each

780
01:11:13.520 --> 01:11:20.159
time you hear my voice, you may feel the same.

781
01:11:26.520 --> 01:11:41.119
Some people have been listening to me for over a decade,

782
01:11:41.960 --> 01:11:46.000
maybe not solidly, obviously not twenty four hours a day,

783
01:11:47.720 --> 01:11:54.239
but maybe people come back. Some people may be listen

784
01:11:54.319 --> 01:12:10.880
every day. That's something that I do which you may

785
01:12:11.000 --> 01:12:31.960
not realize by listening, is when I record these recordings. Now,

786
01:12:32.079 --> 01:12:44.640
for example, I also am affected by the words that

787
01:12:44.760 --> 01:12:56.920
I say. So if I set you focus on your feet,

788
01:12:59.399 --> 01:13:07.199
notice your feet relaxing, I will be focusing on my feet.

789
01:13:12.079 --> 01:13:29.479
I will be noticing my feet relaxing. If I said,

790
01:13:29.600 --> 01:13:37.279
focus on your hands, and maybe notice the difference between

791
01:13:37.319 --> 01:13:48.199
each hand, perhaps noticed the air in the room, the

792
01:13:48.319 --> 01:13:52.960
temperature of the room. On the backs of your hands,

793
01:14:00.760 --> 01:14:04.640
you may start to notice what almost feels like a

794
01:14:04.760 --> 01:14:12.800
very light breeze, even though there may not be any

795
01:14:13.239 --> 01:14:18.159
type of breeze at all where you are right now.

796
01:14:26.319 --> 01:14:36.920
And as you become aware of your hands, I'm also

797
01:14:37.279 --> 01:15:05.479
aware of how relaxed my hands are feeling now, and

798
01:15:05.640 --> 01:15:12.560
when it comes to potentially drifting off to sleep, which

799
01:15:12.640 --> 01:15:26.760
may be the reason you're listening, I also feel drowsy

800
01:15:29.039 --> 01:15:42.479
when I make these recordings. I also notice my mind drifting.

801
01:15:50.399 --> 01:16:03.000
In fact, at times I've actually fallen asleep without even noticing,

802
01:16:07.840 --> 01:16:17.000
and then I carry on talking. And it's only when

803
01:16:17.279 --> 01:16:26.399
I listen back to do the editing I hear snoring

804
01:16:28.319 --> 01:16:35.600
and I think, I don't remember snoring. I remember talking.

805
01:16:38.279 --> 01:16:45.640
It's snoring was a pick turned up. That's why I

806
01:16:45.720 --> 01:16:55.800
sound like when I snore, I get really into the

807
01:16:55.840 --> 01:17:14.079
whole experience. I don't know how you feel. How relaxed

808
01:17:14.119 --> 01:17:24.239
do you feel in your feet, how relaxed you feel

809
01:17:24.399 --> 01:17:51.039
in your hands. I have noticed more and more that

810
01:17:51.239 --> 01:18:07.600
the more relaxed, deeper level of comfort you feel, the

811
01:18:07.640 --> 01:18:28.239
easier your breathing becomes. It's almost like that additional muscle relaxation.

812
01:18:32.560 --> 01:18:53.560
So this allows you to breathe easier without necessarily focusing

813
01:18:55.800 --> 01:19:21.359
on your breath, however, being able to notice the ease

814
01:19:24.800 --> 01:19:51.359
in which you breathe so naturally, you breathe so very

815
01:19:51.640 --> 01:20:40.359
easily and smoothly. Whenever I imagine my breathing improving, when

816
01:20:40.359 --> 01:20:55.680
I've got my eyes closed, I tend to visualize a

817
01:20:55.800 --> 01:21:13.640
beautiful field, trees and flowers producing all that life giving oxygen.

818
01:21:33.880 --> 01:21:49.399
It feels nice too, if nothing else, just taking some

819
01:21:49.960 --> 01:22:32.720
time away from everything, enjoying that feeling of peace serenity

820
01:22:44.279 --> 01:23:16.520
with a joyful heart. Time seems to just drip by,

821
01:23:21.039 --> 01:24:10.880
so very slowly, relaxed, so deeply, peaceful, completely unattached to

822
01:24:11.760 --> 01:25:08.720
any thoughts whatsoever in this moment, completely free, noticing that

823
01:25:16.279 --> 01:26:02.840
your mind has slowed down. Slowed down because nothing really

824
01:26:03.039 --> 01:26:33.640
requires your attention. You can enjoy the physical sensations of

825
01:26:33.760 --> 01:26:46.760
allowing the stress to drip out of your body, dripping

826
01:26:47.079 --> 01:27:11.039
out of every part of your body and being released

827
01:27:16.319 --> 01:27:56.000
from your brain. Nge your mind slowly but surely, the

828
01:27:56.239 --> 01:28:33.319
muscles in your legs relax res rex so very deeply,

830
01:29:14.199 --> 01:29:40.920
your arms and shoulders deepening each part of your body

831
01:29:42.039 --> 01:30:20.279
further and deeper, and not to send the feedings in

832
01:30:20.359 --> 01:31:20.479
the back of your neck, the feedings in your wrists, muscles,

833
01:31:22.520 --> 01:31:51.119

You now feel.

840
01:36:00.119 --> 01:36:02.000
In the hall of your back.

841
01:36:27.199 --> 01:36:28.399
In a spy.

842
01:36:32.159 --> 01:36:36.880
From your brain all the way down the middle of

843
01:36:36.920 --> 01:36:48.640
your back, sending and receiving millions of messages every day,

844
01:36:59.600 --> 01:38:18.840

01:47:43.039 --> 01:48:17.680
the different parts of your body, just to notice your

859
01:48:17.920 --> 01:49:23.560
forehead and your eyes, Chu said, noticing the sense of

860
01:49:23.800 --> 01:50:52.119
complete freedom, absolute freedom. Dress day, dress day.

01:50:52.119 --> 01:50:52.880

Paste to breeze so much ease, yeah, loose. You may

864
01:52:40.319 --> 01:53:29.560
have or may not have noticed your mind drifted peaceful,

865
01:53:43.640 --> 01:53:58.840
move any even more deeply in the direction of total

866
01:54:03.479 --> 01:56:12.920
blissful pace, blisshul pace, theref time to pace, let him go,

867
01:56:37.800 --> 01:57:49.319
peace of mind, body so relaxed, cir relaxed. A body

868
01:57:50.079 --> 01:58:16.039
feels almost invisible, so very relaxed, paceful.

869
01:58:21.840 --> 01:58:21.920
So.

870
01:58:29.600 --> 01:59:32.359
Pace relea so and you could start to notice that

871
01:59:33.399 --> 01:59:44.159
you are feeling more relaxed, even though I've not purposely

872
01:59:45.600 --> 01:59:54.560
focused your mind upon that sense of physical comfort that

873
01:59:54.760 --> 02:00:01.720
is growing within you throughout your body, and your mind

874
02:00:03.840 --> 02:00:12.239
starts to slow down. And that could be almost in

875
02:00:13.159 --> 02:00:21.760
recognition of I guess my speech not being particularly fast,

876
02:00:28.319 --> 02:00:38.680
and things just generally feel calmer. Just by listening to

877
02:00:38.840 --> 02:00:47.399
my voice, you give yourself an opportunity to take a

878
02:00:47.560 --> 02:00:54.319
break from the day, take a break from your life

879
02:00:55.520 --> 02:01:03.960
as it is, and to give yourself a rest, giving

880
02:01:04.000 --> 02:01:11.479
yourself permission to take some time off, and to allow

881
02:01:11.640 --> 02:01:17.800
your body to relax and allow your mind to slow down,

882
02:01:21.880 --> 02:01:29.800
which in turn releases the tension any stresses that you

883
02:01:30.000 --> 02:01:39.920
had in your body. It's almost as if the parts

884
02:01:39.960 --> 02:01:45.079
of your body just open up, allowing the negativity out

885
02:01:51.960 --> 02:01:57.960
and at the same time replacing that negativity with positive

886
02:01:59.159 --> 02:02:07.319
heathing energy, which then fills your body up and your

887
02:02:07.479 --> 02:02:21.359
mind to also starts to appreciate those feelings of increasing

888
02:02:23.640 --> 02:02:40.439
confidence and almost uplifting feeling positive healing, an energy that

889
02:02:44.119 --> 02:02:55.840
spreads through your body like a wave of comfort. And

890
02:02:55.920 --> 02:03:06.039
all this comes from just allowing yourself a few minutes,

891
02:03:07.920 --> 02:03:10.920
maybe half an hour, however long you want it to be,

892
02:03:12.439 --> 02:03:14.600
to just rest.

893
02:03:19.720 --> 02:03:20.640
And allow.

894
02:03:22.840 --> 02:03:32.840
Your mind and your body to almost reset itself to

895
02:03:33.560 --> 02:03:49.159
the settings of comfort and relaxation, calmness, which allows more

896
02:03:49.319 --> 02:04:02.680
room for feelings of pleasure and happiness to move around

897
02:04:03.000 --> 02:04:11.199
your body and into your mind, almost as if your

898
02:04:11.359 --> 02:04:21.880
mind and your body are sinking together, almost mirroring each

899
02:04:22.119 --> 02:04:35.439
other with that growing positivity and calmness. And it feels nice,

900
02:04:38.039 --> 02:04:43.960
really does feel nice to know that you are the

901
02:04:44.079 --> 02:04:57.399
one that has allowed yourself to feel more comfort and

902
02:04:57.640 --> 02:05:11.439
to experience more of this deep relaxation spreading throughout your body.

903
02:05:18.479 --> 02:05:23.800
And as I focus on each part of your body,

904
02:05:26.199 --> 02:05:38.239
you can notice that that part becomes even more relaxed

905
02:05:40.279 --> 02:05:49.079
just by focusing on it. It becomes even more calm

906
02:05:49.359 --> 02:05:59.920
and comfortable, just by focusing. And as I move down

907
02:06:00.199 --> 02:06:07.600
on your body, starting at your head, the parts that

908
02:06:07.720 --> 02:06:14.960
you have already focused on will continue to relax deeply,

909
02:06:17.760 --> 02:06:23.800
and those parts that have not yet focused on or

910
02:06:23.920 --> 02:06:35.720
just automatically release any remain intension in anticipation of even

911
02:06:36.159 --> 02:06:48.680
more comfort about to come. Now, I'm going to start

912
02:06:48.800 --> 02:06:55.800
by focusing on your forehead. Just being aware of the

913
02:06:56.079 --> 02:07:05.880
feelings of your forehead and then your background sounds like

914
02:07:06.079 --> 02:07:11.159
mister Herbert the pigeon can just allow you to feel

915
02:07:11.319 --> 02:07:21.279
even more relaxed. Just means you in the moment, this

916
02:07:21.479 --> 02:07:26.600
isn't this isn't a sterile environment. This is the world.

917
02:07:30.039 --> 02:07:36.079
I live in the countryside, so there's lots of nature

918
02:07:36.640 --> 02:07:47.119
sounds around. So as you focus on your forehead, just

919
02:07:47.359 --> 02:07:55.159
notice how it becomes even more relaxed as you focus

920
02:07:57.479 --> 02:08:01.920
only on my voice and that part of your body.

921
02:08:07.159 --> 02:08:15.439
Moving down to your eyes, focusing on your eyes, noticing

922
02:08:17.880 --> 02:08:27.600
how your eyelids feel so heavy yet so light at

923
02:08:27.640 --> 02:08:34.079
the same time, and all the muscles around your eyes

924
02:08:34.359 --> 02:08:48.760
relaxing completely. Moving your focus down to your mouth, your lips,

925
02:08:49.239 --> 02:08:56.159
your tongue, your teeth, your guns, the whole of your

926
02:08:56.279 --> 02:09:11.680
mouth relaxing, calm and loose, as you focus now on

927
02:09:11.880 --> 02:09:18.800
your jaw, not just the parts of your jaw need

928
02:09:18.880 --> 02:09:23.279
your mouth, and your chin, but all the way up

929
02:09:24.039 --> 02:09:30.079
the size of your face to your ears, the hole

930
02:09:30.800 --> 02:09:31.720
of your jaw.

931
02:09:34.119 --> 02:09:45.359
Feeling more relaxed and calm.

932
02:09:53.560 --> 02:10:02.600
Focusing on your neck, the front of your neck, and

933
02:10:02.760 --> 02:10:15.760
your throat relaxing and loose and calm. The sides of

934
02:10:15.880 --> 02:10:21.119
your neck, the right and left side of your neck

935
02:10:24.079 --> 02:10:39.880
relax and lace and calm. And now the back of

936
02:10:40.039 --> 02:10:52.840
your neck, focusing on the back of your neck, letting

937
02:10:53.079 --> 02:10:57.720
go of any tension that may have been there before,

938
02:10:59.439 --> 02:11:10.800
and joy in that sense of increasing comfort and release.

939
02:11:13.560 --> 02:11:17.520
Then you can experience in the back of your neck,

940
02:11:23.880 --> 02:11:31.079
moving down your back and moving either side of your spine,

941
02:11:32.359 --> 02:11:34.319
right from the top of your back.

942
02:11:36.039 --> 02:11:37.319
All the way.

943
02:11:37.319 --> 02:11:49.960
Down to the bottom of your back, down to your

944
02:11:50.079 --> 02:12:02.800
lower back. As you move up and down spine, you

945
02:12:02.880 --> 02:12:07.600
can feel the muscles either side of your spine.

946
02:12:09.399 --> 02:12:11.439
Relaxing even more.

947
02:12:18.960 --> 02:12:25.680
And as those muscles relax, that sense of comfort starts

948
02:12:25.800 --> 02:12:35.880
to spread outwards from your spine into both sides of

949
02:12:36.000 --> 02:12:43.000
your back, the top of your back, the middle, and

950
02:12:43.159 --> 02:12:52.600
your lower back. And as you scan gently and slowly

951
02:12:53.840 --> 02:12:59.119
up and down your back, there's the muscles in the

952
02:12:59.239 --> 02:13:09.079
top of your back relax and become looser. The muscles

953
02:13:09.239 --> 02:13:14.840
in the middle of your back also seem to just

954
02:13:15.279 --> 02:13:23.960
almost divide from each other, separating and almost melting.

955
02:13:29.760 --> 02:13:31.319
And in your lower back.

956
02:13:34.840 --> 02:13:42.359
There seems to be an extra special feeling of comfort.

957
02:13:47.640 --> 02:13:53.800
The spreads into your hips. Sit down your lower back,

958
02:13:54.119 --> 02:14:02.079
into your hips, into the area where your cosix are,

959
02:14:05.680 --> 02:14:12.359
and into your buttocks. Alise muscles that spread.

960
02:14:14.560 --> 02:14:15.800
Bring your lower back.

961
02:14:18.119 --> 02:14:30.359
Into your hip area, start to melt, start to reading,

962
02:14:31.560 --> 02:14:43.439
let go, and even nowhere about to focus on your shoulders.

963
02:14:45.199 --> 02:14:52.199
Your back and your spine will continue to let go,

964
02:14:55.239 --> 02:14:58.640
continue to relax.

965
02:15:01.479 --> 02:15:05.079
So calmly.

966
02:15:09.800 --> 02:15:15.319
As you focus on your shoulders, you may notice they're

967
02:15:15.600 --> 02:15:33.920
already feeling really loose, They're already feeding.

968
02:15:38.640 --> 02:15:46.920
Calm. The feeling.

969
02:15:50.760 --> 02:15:59.039
Those muscles then move from your neck into your shoulders

970
02:16:05.640 --> 02:16:35.040
feels so soft and gentle, so smooth and calm, and

971
02:16:35.239 --> 02:16:48.079
the feeling in your shoulders seems to spread deep into

972
02:16:48.159 --> 02:16:58.559
your shoulders, a sense of relaxation, not just traveling deeply

973
02:16:58.879 --> 02:17:15.959
into you almost but also relaxing the bones and moving

974
02:17:16.040 --> 02:17:24.319
all the way to underneath your arms, relaxing a whole

975
02:17:24.520 --> 02:17:29.479
area between the tops of your shoulders and underneath your

976
02:17:29.680 --> 02:17:34.840
arms healing.

977
02:17:40.239 --> 02:17:40.920
You feel so.

978
02:17:42.840 --> 02:17:54.319
Relaxed and comfortable in your shoulders, which sense that.

979
02:17:56.559 --> 02:17:58.639
Deep healing.

980
02:18:01.600 --> 02:18:19.079
Message into your arms. You may feel almost as if

981
02:18:19.159 --> 02:18:25.680
your arms are not even that because they're so relaxed,

982
02:18:28.879 --> 02:19:14.360
so deeply relaxed, so so calm, so uh. This the

983
02:19:14.639 --> 02:19:25.440
feeling spreading all the way down your arms two elbows,

984
02:19:29.239 --> 02:19:45.840
including your elbows circumforts, spreads.

985
02:19:49.799 --> 02:19:50.559
Your way.

986
02:19:53.120 --> 02:19:59.959
Into your wrists, your forearms.

987
02:19:59.360 --> 02:20:08.079
And your fists so heavy.

988
02:20:11.719 --> 02:20:53.120
It's at the same time sunlight and gentle Frey say,

989
02:20:55.520 --> 02:20:56.520
now on.

990
02:20:59.200 --> 02:21:00.879
You have ends.

991
02:21:21.959 --> 02:21:23.159
My hands.

992
02:21:29.159 --> 02:21:32.000
So peaceful.

993
02:21:33.000 --> 02:21:34.440
In your hands.

994
02:21:52.680 --> 02:22:16.239
With a sense of real pace, just seems to feel

995
02:22:18.520 --> 02:22:55.280
so familion when your hands relax deeply else your fingers

996
02:23:28.239 --> 02:24:03.159
it's you think it taps.

997
02:24:31.440 --> 02:24:31.479
Me.

998
02:24:31.719 --> 02:24:35.040
Think your attention to front.

999
02:24:35.440 --> 02:26:28.319
Your body so comfortable, then you focus les musculs and

1000
02:26:28.479 --> 02:26:29.799
your fis.

1001
02:26:46.440 --> 02:26:52.639
Niece relaxed.

1002
02:27:19.719 --> 02:29:42.200
Calf muscles shades as the faathing feats Sir, peaceful circom

1003
02:29:48.079 --> 02:30:51.920

1004
02:30:56.600 --> 02:31:11.159
Peace fall Calm out of.

1005
02:31:11.239 --> 02:31:18.360
That deep relaxation, to spread your chest in your storm,

1006
02:31:31.479 --> 02:31:32.440
lets me go.

1007
02:31:34.479 --> 02:31:53.440
Of everything. So I'm gonna start counting down now from

1008
02:31:53.520 --> 02:32:02.159
twenty down to one. You can imagine in a way

1009
02:32:02.239 --> 02:32:08.319
it's like just walking down some steps in each step

1010
02:32:08.719 --> 02:32:14.920
or twenty steps, and each step represents a level of comfort.

1011
02:32:18.399 --> 02:32:33.760
Each step represents a deepening of that comfort, and the

1012
02:32:34.000 --> 02:32:40.680
furvies you walk down those steps deeper and more relaxed

1013
02:32:40.959 --> 02:34:35.879
you feel. So starting with number twenty twenty, nineteen, eighteen, seventeen,

1014
02:35:22.239 --> 02:45:21.760
sixteenhhhhhhhh three fourhhhhhhh four too wellh hhhhhhh eight five us

1015
02:45:54.799 --> 02:48:59.879
up six five four.

1016
02:49:20.280 --> 02:51:26.959
Mud being to s the us.

1017
02:53:28.000 --> 02:53:45.040
Now, as you focus on your eyes, You're gonna count

1018
02:53:45.159 --> 02:53:56.920
down from ten down to one, focusing just on your eyes,

1019
02:54:00.719 --> 02:54:09.239
your eyelids, the muscles around your eyes, your eye walls themselves,

1020
02:54:10.760 --> 02:54:12.319
a whole area.

1021
02:54:14.920 --> 02:54:16.360
That makes up your eye.

1022
02:54:27.360 --> 02:54:35.479
And as we count down ten down to one, whilst

1023
02:54:35.760 --> 02:54:49.040
focus in on your eyes, you become twice is relaxed

1024
02:54:51.319 --> 02:54:54.920
with each number counting down.

1025
02:54:58.799 --> 02:55:05.799
That you may find and the all you want to do.

1026
02:55:06.280 --> 02:55:15.200
Is just drift off to sleep. And if that's what

1027
02:55:15.520 --> 02:55:28.000
you want, then just allow yourself to do that. Now,

1028
02:55:31.000 --> 02:55:37.600
focusing on your eyes, I'm going to begin counting down.

1029
02:55:38.920 --> 02:55:54.479
From ten down to one right now, ten.

1030
02:56:20.520 --> 02:58:26.959
Nine eighth.

1031
02:59:52.920 --> 03:00:01.520
I the.

1032
03:00:03.040 --> 03:01:04.440
US four.

1033
03:02:17.600 --> 03:04:58.799
Three SiO.

1034
03:05:06.879 --> 03:05:13.280
Counting down from ten to one ten nine.

1035
03:05:14.760 --> 03:05:42.440
Eight seven six, five four three two one. And maybe

1036
03:05:42.600 --> 03:05:45.520
that was a bit too quick in order to relax.

1037
03:05:46.760 --> 03:05:51.000
Maybe it's a bit too fast for you to notice

1038
03:05:51.239 --> 03:05:59.319
the calming of your body, maybe even a little bit

1039
03:05:59.360 --> 03:06:03.479
of pressure. They're like, you're counting down from ten to one,

1040
03:06:03.559 --> 03:06:06.959
would you expect me to do? Man, expect me to

1041
03:06:07.040 --> 03:06:16.600
stick all with floppy just because you're counting down. You

1042
03:06:16.680 --> 03:06:19.879
can try it again, but this time I'll go.

1043
03:06:19.920 --> 03:06:21.000
A bit slower.

1044
03:06:22.879 --> 03:06:27.760
This time, and you focus on the whole of your

1045
03:06:27.799 --> 03:06:36.159
body before we focus on your legs. Just notice how

1046
03:06:36.239 --> 03:06:50.360
your body does start to feel more relaxed with every

1047
03:06:50.520 --> 03:07:23.559
number that I count down ten nine eight, seven, six,

1048
03:07:32.000 --> 03:08:40.959
five four three two one, And just notice how how

1049
03:08:41.000 --> 03:08:51.120
you feel, generally, how your body feels. It's not necessarily

1050
03:08:51.200 --> 03:09:01.600
even about counting down from ten to one. It's that

1051
03:09:01.879 --> 03:09:21.559
space that you have that space between being active physically

1052
03:09:21.799 --> 03:09:31.399
or mentally to just sitting or lying down, just being there,

1053
03:09:32.120 --> 03:09:37.559
not doing anything, not saying anything, or needing to think

1054
03:09:37.680 --> 03:09:43.559
about anything. So it opens up a space, you know,

1055
03:09:43.760 --> 03:09:53.120
a bit of a space, a gap. And the more

1056
03:09:54.399 --> 03:09:57.719
I came down from ten to one, the bigger that

1057
03:09:57.959 --> 03:10:08.920
gap becomes. So there's that gap of calmness, of comfort, relaxation.

1058
03:10:14.879 --> 03:10:27.200
It's a nice feeling, and it moves those stresses or

1059
03:10:27.760 --> 03:10:31.959
discomforts physically or emotionally, moves them.

1060
03:10:33.479 --> 03:10:33.879
Away.

1061
03:10:40.639 --> 03:10:53.000
Allows you to just slow down. So ione to count

1062
03:10:53.040 --> 03:10:59.639
again from ten down to one, and notice that gap widening,

1063
03:11:01.840 --> 03:11:06.280
the gap, And as it widens, it's almost like the

1064
03:11:08.000 --> 03:11:10.959
stress and attention falls.

1065
03:11:10.840 --> 03:11:29.239
Into the gap and gives you that distance, that space.

1066
03:11:31.639 --> 03:11:37.000
Now ten.

1067
03:11:41.440 --> 03:12:51.360
Nine, eight, seven, six, five, four, three.

1068
03:13:07.440 --> 03:13:39.040
Two one. Now, how did your.

1069
03:13:41.079 --> 03:13:42.040
Body feel?

1070
03:13:44.280 --> 03:13:44.440
Now?

1071
03:13:57.159 --> 03:14:09.040
Can you notice that? Do you feel? And Calma, are

1072
03:14:09.079 --> 03:14:37.799
you feeling more relaxed? As we now focus on your legs,

1073
03:14:39.520 --> 03:14:59.920
just your legs. We're just gonna start with focusing or

1074
03:15:00.079 --> 03:15:19.239
on your thighs. Of course, it's not the most exciting

1075
03:15:19.399 --> 03:15:26.040
thing to be doing because I'm sure like most of

1076
03:15:26.120 --> 03:15:28.840
your body is not a lot going on right now.

1077
03:15:37.920 --> 03:15:44.200
Just focusing on the whole of your thighs, the tops

1078
03:15:44.280 --> 03:15:50.360
of your thighs, the sides of your thighs, the bottoms

1079
03:15:50.399 --> 03:15:54.879
of your thighs, your outer thighs, and your inner thighs.

1080
03:15:57.120 --> 03:16:01.000
Basically the whole of your thigh that leads into your

1081
03:16:01.120 --> 03:16:08.120
hip and it goes down to your.

1082
03:16:10.040 --> 03:16:10.719
Knee joint.

1083
03:16:15.920 --> 03:16:23.120
Now, this is a big area, it's a very heavy area.

1084
03:16:23.639 --> 03:16:29.600
It's very strong, probably the strongest muscles in your body

1085
03:16:30.319 --> 03:16:44.600
or in your thighs. But I don't think we perhaps

1086
03:16:46.639 --> 03:16:59.319
give enough attention to our thighs. Perhaps we don't acknowledge

1087
03:17:00.079 --> 03:17:19.399
how important our thighs are to our lives, how much

1088
03:17:22.040 --> 03:17:35.520
they actually do for us all through our lives. And

1089
03:17:35.639 --> 03:17:41.440
it may seem sound really weird, but I think that

1090
03:17:41.639 --> 03:17:49.559
all of our body parts, especially our thighs, needs some TLC,

1091
03:17:52.879 --> 03:18:06.079
a bit of love shown, a bit of acknowledgement, thank you,

1092
03:18:09.239 --> 03:18:21.719
gratitude for our thighs do for us. And I know

1093
03:18:21.920 --> 03:18:27.959
this may sound a bit strange. Maybe you think, why

1094
03:18:28.040 --> 03:18:31.200
am I Surely I should be out in the garden

1095
03:18:31.399 --> 03:18:39.600
hugging a tree or something. Well, it's hard to set

1096
03:18:39.639 --> 03:18:42.799
a microphone up on a tree. That's why I'm doing

1097
03:18:42.879 --> 03:18:45.520
this indoors. Otherwise I would be outside hugging a tree.

1098
03:18:46.920 --> 03:18:48.600
I can't see the television.

1099
03:18:48.159 --> 03:18:57.159
From the tree. If you move down to your knees.

1100
03:18:58.680 --> 03:19:00.840
Gain such an important autumn part.

1101
03:19:05.159 --> 03:19:06.840
And I think we don't.

1102
03:19:06.680 --> 03:19:16.520
Necessarily I'll speak for myself. I don't necessarily appreciate all

1103
03:19:16.600 --> 03:19:21.399
that my needs to do for me until I have

1104
03:19:21.520 --> 03:19:24.920
a problem with my knee. It's occasionally, if I ever,

1105
03:19:26.520 --> 03:19:30.440
maybe i'll bash it, or it's aching for some reason.

1106
03:19:32.200 --> 03:19:38.399
It's then that I realize how much it does. You know,

1107
03:19:38.479 --> 03:19:44.440
the benefit of being able to use my legs without

1108
03:19:46.200 --> 03:19:53.440
any kind of physical discomfort is a beautiful thing that's

1109
03:19:53.680 --> 03:20:02.079
possibly not appreciated until it's temporarily removed. You know that's comfort.

1110
03:20:06.159 --> 03:20:10.760
But as you focus on your knees, regardless of how

1111
03:20:10.840 --> 03:20:18.360
your knees feel, you can have that sense of gratitude

1112
03:20:19.879 --> 03:20:22.479
and love to your knees for all that they do

1113
03:20:22.680 --> 03:20:35.680
for you, and you can still have that attention on

1114
03:20:35.799 --> 03:20:43.159
your thighs. Maybe notice how your thighs feel. Maybe notice

1115
03:20:43.440 --> 03:21:02.520
that they are relaxing more deeply as because now on

1116
03:21:02.639 --> 03:21:07.159
the bottoms of your legs, your shins and your calf muscles,

1117
03:21:07.680 --> 03:21:15.360
the bones between your knees and your feet incorporate, and

1118
03:21:15.440 --> 03:21:27.760
of course your ankles so important. Anyone that's had even

1119
03:21:28.200 --> 03:21:33.159
like the slightest sprain of an ankle knows how.

1120
03:21:34.639 --> 03:21:37.479
How much we take our.

1121
03:21:37.559 --> 03:21:46.079
Ankles for granted. And it's kind of strange in a

1122
03:21:46.159 --> 03:21:51.719
way when you think that. You know, logically, our wrists

1123
03:21:51.879 --> 03:21:54.760
are a lot thinner than the rest of our arms,

1124
03:21:55.879 --> 03:21:59.360
which is okay, it doesn't I can't see any problem

1125
03:21:59.399 --> 03:22:04.280
with that because we're just picking stuff up by our

1126
03:22:04.399 --> 03:22:10.200
ankles so much thinner than the rest of our legs.

1127
03:22:16.639 --> 03:22:21.079
And from a physics perspective or logical even it doesn't

1128
03:22:21.120 --> 03:22:27.120
really make sense that all this weight would ultimately be

1129
03:22:28.239 --> 03:22:38.239
resting on your ankles then leading to your feet, that

1130
03:22:38.840 --> 03:22:47.799
thin area, thin bone. Yeah, it does so much great work.

1131
03:22:49.959 --> 03:22:59.479
Supports us, supports our body for a lifetime, helps us

1132
03:23:00.200 --> 03:23:09.520
to balance, helps you to get her around and be mobile.

1133
03:23:15.840 --> 03:23:23.639
And there's the calf muscles. Of course, when I was younger,

1134
03:23:24.040 --> 03:23:27.319
I couldn't see the point in calf muscles didn't seem

1135
03:23:27.360 --> 03:23:32.440
to do anything. Okay, if I walked around on tiptoes,

1136
03:23:33.239 --> 03:23:35.200
then my calf muscles get some work.

1137
03:23:36.600 --> 03:23:37.920
But of course that's not true.

1138
03:23:38.079 --> 03:23:42.159
The calf muscles are being used whenever we use the

1139
03:23:42.319 --> 03:23:56.120
legs and your shins there to protect your lower legs,

1140
03:24:00.440 --> 03:24:05.600
shaped in a way almost as a protector for the bone,

1141
03:24:13.200 --> 03:24:16.799
leading of course to your ankles.

1142
03:24:19.680 --> 03:24:20.360
And your feet.

1143
03:24:25.040 --> 03:24:27.000
But we're not going to focus on your feet. We're

1144
03:24:27.040 --> 03:24:31.200
just going to focus on the legs. And I realize,

1145
03:24:33.280 --> 03:24:37.159
and now that I've mentioned your feet, you're probably focusing

1146
03:24:37.440 --> 03:24:40.520
on them anyway, So maybe I should focus on your

1147
03:24:40.559 --> 03:24:46.399
feet a little bit. You can have them in your

1148
03:24:46.440 --> 03:24:52.840
awareness the same as you have your thighs in your awareness.

1149
03:24:53.680 --> 03:24:57.520
Even though we haven't been focusing on your thighs for

1150
03:24:57.559 --> 03:25:02.639
a few minutes and we're focus in on your ankles,

1151
03:25:08.319 --> 03:25:23.520
there's still that sensation of comfort in your thighs, and

1152
03:25:23.600 --> 03:25:33.079
there's that movement of energy because the thighs hold lots

1153
03:25:33.120 --> 03:25:38.600
of different sensations. Of course, there's the muscles, the big

1154
03:25:39.000 --> 03:25:51.079
straw muscles that we have in our thighs, but the

1155
03:25:51.280 --> 03:25:57.239
skin on the outside of the thighs, as in the

1156
03:25:57.360 --> 03:26:02.959
outside of all of our body, can be very sensitive,

1157
03:26:06.840 --> 03:26:20.040
sensitive to the touch, sensitive to temperature, and inside your

1158
03:26:20.159 --> 03:26:27.600
thighs the bones, there's the muscle, there's the blood, vessels,

1159
03:26:27.760 --> 03:26:33.600
the ar trees to all this stuff inside your thighs.

1160
03:26:38.000 --> 03:26:41.360
I guess sometimes it'd be nice if you could actually

1161
03:26:41.440 --> 03:26:48.879
put your fingers inside your thighs and a message, so

1162
03:26:48.959 --> 03:26:52.479
you can message on the outside, of course, but to

1163
03:26:52.520 --> 03:26:55.799
be able to get deep into the muscles, to be

1164
03:26:55.840 --> 03:27:01.000
able to just message inside your thighs, message in the

1165
03:27:01.079 --> 03:27:06.040
bones of your leg message in.

1166
03:27:08.719 --> 03:27:09.559
Or the veins.

1167
03:27:10.000 --> 03:27:15.559
Just gently healing your thighs.

1168
03:27:19.079 --> 03:27:20.680
And you can move down.

1169
03:27:22.479 --> 03:27:27.559
Message and inside your knees, just message in those bones,

1170
03:27:28.559 --> 03:27:34.040
but with healing fingertips, spreading that healing.

1171
03:27:33.840 --> 03:27:44.600
Energy deep into the choice your knees. Of course, there's

1172
03:27:44.680 --> 03:27:47.600
the back of your your need and.

1173
03:27:47.680 --> 03:27:53.680
The inside crease where your need is. It's a very

1174
03:27:53.920 --> 03:27:59.760
sensitive area. Three it feels very nice when you stroke it.

1175
03:28:01.200 --> 03:28:04.559
That might be because it's an area that's not really

1176
03:28:04.760 --> 03:28:12.200
touched very often. It's almost like a hidden part, that crease.

1177
03:28:14.000 --> 03:28:14.719
In your legs.

1178
03:28:14.799 --> 03:28:15.799
It's almost.

1179
03:28:17.760 --> 03:28:18.479
Like a part that.

1180
03:28:20.280 --> 03:28:31.520
Has a sensitivity, which is a little bit different. Of course,

1181
03:28:31.600 --> 03:28:42.040
it's protected by your legs. So you can imagine putting

1182
03:28:42.959 --> 03:28:52.799
your fingers into that crease in your legs. Folded in

1183
03:28:52.920 --> 03:28:56.840
between your legs, you can just message with your fingertips.

1184
03:28:58.079 --> 03:29:04.840
Imagine your fingertips going in side massage in the muscle tissue.

1185
03:29:09.440 --> 03:29:13.680
You can of course field the bones of your knees,

1186
03:29:15.239 --> 03:29:25.079
healing through your fingertips, and then as.

1187
03:29:24.959 --> 03:29:25.879
You go down.

1188
03:29:28.520 --> 03:29:31.319
To your calf muscles, and that's the part I'd like

1189
03:29:31.440 --> 03:29:36.120
to be able to really put my fingertips deep inside

1190
03:29:36.879 --> 03:29:46.200
my calf muscles, massage in every single tissue of that muscle.

1191
03:29:47.399 --> 03:29:55.959
Healing every part. And then doing the.

1192
03:29:56.079 --> 03:30:04.239
Same for my shins, massage and generally stroking the bones,

1193
03:30:05.959 --> 03:30:11.639
generally stroking them, healing in a loving way because they

1194
03:30:11.760 --> 03:30:18.120
deserve to be treated. There's the precious bones that they are,

1195
03:30:19.440 --> 03:30:22.719
because our legs are so precious as in all the

1196
03:30:22.799 --> 03:30:28.120
other parts of our body, the more precious of any

1197
03:30:28.280 --> 03:30:43.600
jure on the planet. When you start to think about

1198
03:30:47.000 --> 03:30:55.840
your legs in this way, it can change your perspective.

1199
03:30:58.559 --> 03:30:59.760
It might sound a bit.

1200
03:31:02.719 --> 03:31:07.040
A bit silly to start with the idea of having

1201
03:31:07.920 --> 03:31:17.920
love for your legs, showing appreciation for your thighs, wanting

1202
03:31:18.040 --> 03:31:21.959
to be able to put your hands in your thighs,

1203
03:31:24.200 --> 03:31:30.559
massage the muscles and the bones, and to get your

1204
03:31:30.680 --> 03:31:39.159
fingers deep in there, releasing all tension, just to show

1205
03:31:41.079 --> 03:31:48.440
how much you care about your legs, how much you

1206
03:31:48.559 --> 03:31:57.120
care for what your legs do for you regularly, your knees,

1207
03:31:57.399 --> 03:32:10.600
your calves, course, the strength of your ankles, considering how

1208
03:32:11.639 --> 03:32:14.920
thin they are compared to the rest of your legs,

1209
03:32:15.079 --> 03:32:28.719
especially your thighs. Yeah, they're so strong, so flexible, absolutely

1210
03:32:29.000 --> 03:32:40.840
amazing things. Your ankles are truly a gift because of

1211
03:32:40.879 --> 03:32:52.159
what they do for you, supporting all that weight, regardless

1212
03:32:52.239 --> 03:32:56.239
of how what weight you are, even if you only

1213
03:32:56.280 --> 03:33:01.079
eat ate stone, it's still a lot of weight for

1214
03:33:01.200 --> 03:33:08.280
these little ankles. Now I'm a lot heavier than eight stand,

1215
03:33:09.959 --> 03:33:19.079
double down, get my ankles support my body all the time.

1216
03:33:22.840 --> 03:33:25.840
Whether they do give off a sigh of relief when

1217
03:33:25.879 --> 03:33:30.920
I sit down, that's you've had my whole legs to

1218
03:33:34.639 --> 03:33:42.000
my feet, feet als go, my toes clap so happy.

1219
03:34:01.799 --> 03:34:06.920
Your legs really are amazing.

1220
03:34:09.559 --> 03:34:13.200
And I know they're talking about. Talking about your legs

1221
03:34:13.319 --> 03:34:14.120
is probably.

1222
03:34:16.319 --> 03:34:21.000
Possibly among the most most boring things I've ever heard

1223
03:34:21.040 --> 03:34:29.440
anyone say. Possibly you're boring or not. Everything I said

1224
03:34:29.600 --> 03:34:46.239
is true. Your legs are amazing. Your legs deserve not

1225
03:34:46.639 --> 03:34:55.040
just respect, but they deserve to relax.

1226
03:34:56.399 --> 03:34:56.760
Deeply.

1227
03:35:04.079 --> 03:35:07.399
They deserve to take some time out of the day

1228
03:35:09.600 --> 03:35:11.799
to just let go completely.

1229
03:35:29.719 --> 03:35:30.719
Your legs.

1230
03:35:35.799 --> 03:35:49.799
Really can relax because the legs are so such a most,

1231
03:35:49.920 --> 03:35:55.159
you know, very important part of your body. When you

1232
03:35:55.280 --> 03:36:00.319
relax your legs, the rest of your body also thattally

1233
03:36:01.239 --> 03:36:17.399
follows in that journey of comfort. I can feel it

1234
03:36:17.440 --> 03:36:18.159
in my hips.

1235
03:36:19.559 --> 03:36:26.680
My hips feel really loose, and also my lower back

1236
03:36:26.760 --> 03:36:27.120
as well.

1237
03:36:29.159 --> 03:36:34.879
My lower back really feels it feels stretched, even though

1238
03:36:34.920 --> 03:36:38.559
I'm just sitting in a chair and there's no stretching

1239
03:36:41.239 --> 03:36:44.440
as far as I'm aware that I'm doing. It's almost

1240
03:36:44.440 --> 03:36:48.280
as if the muscles are just relaxed so much that

1241
03:36:48.360 --> 03:36:55.440
there is a natural stretch as the tension has reduced

1242
03:36:56.879 --> 03:37:15.479
a lot. And I'm now going to count down from

1243
03:37:16.079 --> 03:37:28.680
ten downs one and you can continue to fill wonderfully relaxed.

1244
03:37:31.959 --> 03:37:36.239
Ten nine.

1245
03:37:39.120 --> 03:37:56.040
Eight, seven, six, five, four.

1246
03:37:59.159 --> 03:38:15.120
Three two. Why relaxed?

1247
03:38:22.959 --> 03:38:27.200
So I'm just going to count down five down to one,

1248
03:38:28.000 --> 03:38:32.559
and as a countdown, if you just focus on the numbers,

1249
03:38:34.239 --> 03:38:42.280
just the numbers counting down, and notice how you feel

1250
03:38:44.920 --> 03:38:49.520
in this moment as you hear the numbers counting down,

1251
03:38:50.559 --> 03:39:03.079
knowing that those numbers counting down represent you feeling calmer,

1252
03:39:04.440 --> 03:39:09.840
not just in your body, but also relaxing your mind.

1253
03:39:12.639 --> 03:39:14.200
I just notice how you feel.

1254
03:39:15.120 --> 03:39:21.000
There's nothing to do, there's nothing to say, there's nothing

1255
03:39:21.159 --> 03:40:04.200
to think about. Starting with number five four three two one.

1256
03:40:13.639 --> 03:40:26.079
How as you notice the gradual letting go the tension

1257
03:40:26.319 --> 03:40:33.440
in your body, you may also begin to notice and

1258
03:40:33.600 --> 03:40:42.600
be aware of how your mind is starting to slow down.

1259
03:40:45.120 --> 03:40:51.440
This is just a natural thing that happens. It's not

1260
03:40:51.639 --> 03:40:56.840
really a special procedure. It's just natural because as your

1261
03:40:58.159 --> 03:41:03.959
body relaxes, your mind and also starts to relax, and

1262
03:41:04.079 --> 03:41:07.600
the more your mind relaxes, the more your body relaxes.

1263
03:41:07.719 --> 03:41:18.200
It's just a continuous circle of relaxation. And there's that

1264
03:41:19.479 --> 03:41:27.360
calmness that comes from relative quietness. You know, even even

1265
03:41:27.399 --> 03:41:32.319
if there's background sounds, maybe your side or mine.

1266
03:41:33.719 --> 03:41:37.719
It's still going to be quite calm.

1267
03:41:39.399 --> 03:41:42.040
You know, you haven't got the television on, there's no

1268
03:41:42.360 --> 03:41:46.600
music in the background, unless you're listening to the recorded

1269
03:41:46.639 --> 03:41:47.159
with music.

1270
03:41:47.319 --> 03:41:54.639
Of course, you're very likely not going to be sitting in.

1271
03:41:54.680 --> 03:41:57.719
A room with other people. Of course you might be,

1272
03:41:57.920 --> 03:42:02.280
but generally it's more ideal if you can do this

1273
03:42:02.479 --> 03:42:13.520
on your own, so no distractions, and when you stop

1274
03:42:13.639 --> 03:42:22.959
thinking about stuff, relaxation.

1275
03:42:24.159 --> 03:42:25.639
Automatically rises.

1276
03:42:28.000 --> 03:42:38.760
A sense of comfort starts to grow, and without trying

1277
03:42:38.799 --> 03:42:47.719
to build it up into something fantastical or something magical.

1278
03:42:49.840 --> 03:42:55.319
This is just a natural process, something.

1279
03:42:55.120 --> 03:42:59.959
That's easy to accomplish.

1280
03:43:02.840 --> 03:43:07.200
In fact, it's almost you know, the sense of relaxing

1281
03:43:08.040 --> 03:43:13.760
completely happens really when you put no effort into it.

1282
03:43:14.799 --> 03:43:20.479
It's not something that you can really force. It's something

1283
03:43:20.639 --> 03:43:31.399
that happens naturally. And part of the process of this

1284
03:43:31.680 --> 03:43:43.639
recording and others is simply two allow you to take

1285
03:43:43.719 --> 03:43:47.200
advantage of this space.

1286
03:43:49.879 --> 03:44:02.840
This time, it's just let go, to just be here,

1287
03:44:04.319 --> 03:44:04.600
to be.

1288
03:44:05.200 --> 03:44:18.600
In tune with how you feel, yet with the intention

1289
03:44:20.840 --> 03:44:32.319
of wanting to relax deeply and maybe even to fall asleep,

1290
03:44:33.479 --> 03:44:38.639
depending on what it is that you wish for yourself

1291
03:44:40.399 --> 03:44:55.479
in this moment. As we know, relaxing is the majority

1292
03:44:56.680 --> 03:45:01.159
of the process of falling asleep actual fall. The sleep

1293
03:45:01.239 --> 03:45:08.000
part is the tiny bit at the end. The deeper

1294
03:45:09.319 --> 03:45:31.639
relaxed you become, the easier you find yourself drifting. But

1295
03:45:31.760 --> 03:45:38.319
you can also if you choose stay focused on my

1296
03:45:38.520 --> 03:46:07.440
voice and really enjoy the process gradually relaxing each muscle

1297
03:46:12.079 --> 03:46:38.920
in your body effortlessly and just observing the sensation of

1298
03:46:39.200 --> 03:46:54.799
letting go completely. This time, I'm going to count from

1299
03:46:55.040 --> 03:47:05.200
six down to one, and you can notice your mind

1300
03:47:07.840 --> 03:47:13.079
calming down more with each number.

1301
03:47:14.440 --> 03:47:15.639
That you hear me.

1302
03:47:15.879 --> 03:47:26.639
Say naturally, feeling calm and slow.

1303
03:47:30.440 --> 03:48:56.920
To be peaceful sex five four thre.

1304
03:50:03.639 --> 03:50:34.559
One, being aware of how your mind to slowe write down,

1305
03:50:37.840 --> 03:51:00.920
sinking deeply into relaxation, as if because on your.

1306
03:51:00.879 --> 03:51:01.600
Mind, you.

1307
03:51:05.079 --> 03:51:14.360
May notice that there are some thoughts still there, maybe

1308
03:51:14.520 --> 03:51:16.280
some stubborn thoughts that.

1309
03:51:18.760 --> 03:51:24.280
For some reason perhaps need your attention.

1310
03:51:31.200 --> 03:51:32.680
That's what you can do is.

1311
03:51:38.120 --> 03:51:45.879
Send love to those thoughts. Sprinkle those thoughts.

1312
03:51:50.079 --> 03:51:56.000
With love. I all petals from a flower, just sprinkle

1313
03:51:56.000 --> 03:52:03.120
it over them, petals feel good love towards those thoughts,

1314
03:52:03.719 --> 03:52:10.200
to let those thoughts mow that you're not abandoned the number.

1315
03:52:11.479 --> 03:52:12.840
You just need them.

1316
03:52:14.079 --> 03:52:26.000
You require them to just calm down, slow down, quiet down.

1317
03:52:29.680 --> 03:52:30.079
For now.

1318
03:52:37.959 --> 03:52:42.959
So as you focus on those remaining thoughts as we

1319
03:52:43.159 --> 03:52:48.399
count down this time from seven down to one. With

1320
03:52:48.520 --> 03:53:02.399
each number, just imagine sprinkling those flower petals of love, kindness,

1321
03:53:04.040 --> 03:53:15.879
gratitude over those thoughts, which will allow them to just

1322
03:53:17.319 --> 03:53:32.319
not away and relax deeply. With every number, those thoughts

1323
03:53:32.440 --> 03:54:41.040
will become more and more relaxed. Starting with number seven, six, five, four,

1324
03:55:07.120 --> 03:56:28.959
three four. Let you now notice how relaxed your feeling

1325
03:56:32.680 --> 03:56:54.479
in your body. We got to focus on your hands, gus.

1326
03:56:54.559 --> 03:57:02.840
The more relaxed your hands on as your body and mind.

1327
03:57:18.280 --> 03:57:29.840
As you focus on your hands and your fingers, there's

1328
03:57:29.879 --> 03:57:35.280
nothing needed to be done. There's no clenching of fists

1329
03:57:35.559 --> 03:57:46.639
or dance in the fingers or anything like that. It's

1330
03:57:46.920 --> 03:58:01.760
just noticing and focusing on your hands. Notice simally feel.

1331
03:58:16.120 --> 03:58:17.559
Because the more.

1332
03:58:19.479 --> 03:58:27.920
Relaxed your hands feel, the calm on your mind feels,

1333
03:58:29.799 --> 03:58:47.799
and the more comforts you feel throughout your body. Jee may.

1334
03:58:50.079 --> 03:58:55.239
Have already.

1335
03:58:57.479 --> 03:59:07.840
Noticed you a mind.

1336
03:59:10.680 --> 03:59:19.159
Is starting to drest.

1337
03:59:32.479 --> 03:59:46.799
Ui sap just on your hands and fingers, allowing them

1338
03:59:47.959 --> 04:00:01.280
cheap experience, a real deepening of that relaxation in your

1339
04:00:01.479 --> 04:00:13.680
hands and fingers or relaxed.

1340
04:00:18.799 --> 04:00:28.760
With each number from eight.

1341
04:00:30.920 --> 04:00:44.920
Down to one, you can almost feel like healing relax energy,

1342
04:00:46.040 --> 04:01:03.680
spread it into your hands and fingers, becoming oh relaxing.

1343
04:01:06.799 --> 04:01:25.280
With each number goin down eight down to one to

1344
04:01:25.360 --> 04:01:36.559
drift down drifting again. Started with.

1345
04:01:41.159 --> 04:05:37.000
Number eight, seven, four, three, just being.

1346
04:05:37.120 --> 04:05:47.479
Here now, nothing to think about, nothing to do, nothing

1347
04:05:47.559 --> 04:06:03.200
to say. Everything just feels calm. This is your natural

1348
04:06:03.440 --> 04:06:11.319
state of being. This is how you just normally feel

1349
04:06:12.079 --> 04:06:15.399
when you take away all.

1350
04:06:15.440 --> 04:06:23.280
That other stuff that we add and thinks, like stress

1351
04:06:23.440 --> 04:06:24.239
and worry.

1352
04:06:27.360 --> 04:06:42.479
Over thinking, anxiety, tension, generally thinking about stuff. You take

1353
04:06:42.719 --> 04:06:46.360
that away, which is what we do, what we do.

1354
04:06:46.639 --> 04:06:59.680
Now you left with over your sense of the needs

1355
04:06:59.719 --> 04:07:11.799
of which comes to you very quickly, because antimately it's

1356
04:07:12.079 --> 04:07:25.680
just a feeling, a feeling of comfort, almost as if

1357
04:07:25.719 --> 04:07:31.719
you've got inside yourself. You've found a special place where

1358
04:07:34.200 --> 04:07:46.479
everything is peaceful. Place Week in the film Relaxed as

1359
04:07:46.559 --> 04:07:47.680
your actual.

1360
04:07:49.479 --> 04:07:54.559
Sense of comfort, a place.

1361
04:07:54.319 --> 04:08:04.879
Week can be here Week accept yourself and you are

1362
04:08:07.360 --> 04:08:13.399
in the place where you're not trying to please anybody else,

1363
04:08:18.319 --> 04:08:26.879
place where you can actually not just love yourself, but

1364
04:08:28.360 --> 04:08:36.399
in some ways more importantly, you can like yourself, appreciate.

1365
04:08:37.159 --> 04:08:48.879
Who you are, a sense of gratitude.

1366
04:08:51.920 --> 04:08:53.760
See the air around you.

1367
04:09:01.360 --> 04:09:07.719
That's also a place where you can actually feel.

1368
04:09:09.120 --> 04:09:23.719
The healing energy soaking into your body. Healing energy soaking.

1369
04:09:24.399 --> 04:09:25.440
Into your body.

1370
04:09:30.559 --> 04:09:39.959
The healing energy spreads through your veins, traveling to each

1371
04:09:41.399 --> 04:09:52.239
every single part of your body, and you start to

1372
04:09:52.399 --> 04:09:59.840
realize to actually that healing energy it's not just entered

1373
04:10:00.079 --> 04:10:11.520
into your brain, it's become part of your brain, and

1374
04:10:11.680 --> 04:10:23.440
the spinal fluid is now mixed up hearing energy, not

1375
04:10:23.799 --> 04:10:31.760
just allowing you to feel so much more relaxed and

1376
04:10:32.040 --> 04:10:44.520
healthy in this moment, but also you start to realize

1377
04:10:44.799 --> 04:10:54.680
that actually, what's happening now without a healing, relaxing energy

1378
04:10:55.600 --> 04:11:08.079
spreading through your body's actually changing your life. It's actually

1379
04:11:09.399 --> 04:11:13.200
changing the way you're going to feel not just now,

1380
04:11:15.000 --> 04:11:17.840
but tomorrow and the next day.

1381
04:11:19.760 --> 04:11:20.959
As your health.

1382
04:11:21.120 --> 04:11:28.360
Improves, not just your physical health, but your mental health.

1383
04:11:32.319 --> 04:11:37.479
Things that used to bother you in the past, for

1384
04:11:37.680 --> 04:11:43.799
some reason, no longer have the effect that they used to.

1385
04:11:46.799 --> 04:11:51.920
Because something has changed deep within you.

1386
04:11:57.000 --> 04:12:03.399
Maybe things that used to cause you to feel anger

1387
04:12:07.239 --> 04:12:17.319
no longer have that power to control you the way

1388
04:12:17.399 --> 04:12:25.399
they seem to be able to before. As you realize

1389
04:12:26.440 --> 04:12:38.879
that you're the one who decides what affects you, you're

1390
04:12:39.399 --> 04:12:47.600
the one who decides to feel relaxed and calm.

1391
04:12:49.040 --> 04:12:55.520
When you choose to enjoy.

1392
04:12:56.719 --> 04:13:05.440
Noticing these natural developments and healing.

1393
04:13:07.680 --> 04:13:09.639
Continue to grow.

1394
04:13:12.200 --> 04:13:23.520
And improve your life day by day, including of course,

1395
04:13:23.600 --> 04:13:24.959
your ability.

1396
04:13:26.479 --> 04:13:36.399
To relax so much easier than sleep in.

1397
04:13:40.959 --> 04:13:46.639
It's the most natural thing in the world to you,

1398
04:13:51.159 --> 04:13:54.719
because for in, the sleep is something that you've done

1399
04:13:57.760 --> 04:14:05.440
so many times in your life, and you know that

1400
04:14:05.639 --> 04:14:10.879
you were born, as we all were, with the ability

1401
04:14:12.479 --> 04:14:22.799
to fall asleep naturally. We were born with that ability

1402
04:14:25.760 --> 04:14:27.600
to just drift.

1403
04:14:29.079 --> 04:14:33.760
Off into a deep, healing sleep.

1404
04:14:39.719 --> 04:14:44.559
Even when we're kids, sometimes will fall asleep and we

1405
04:14:44.600 --> 04:14:49.200
don't even want to try to think us stay awake.

1406
04:14:50.559 --> 04:14:54.000
Maybe it's a birthday in the morning, or it's Christmas

1407
04:14:54.239 --> 04:14:58.000
or holiday or something we look forward to. We don't

1408
04:14:58.040 --> 04:15:02.680
want to go to sleep. But the more you want

1409
04:15:02.719 --> 04:15:07.879
to stay awake, the more we just start to drift.

1410
04:15:12.000 --> 04:15:16.520
And the more you fights drifting, we try to stop

1411
04:15:16.600 --> 04:15:22.840
yourself and drifting a safe the depot and strongerout drifting

1412
04:15:23.000 --> 04:15:35.159
becomes because we're born not just with the need to

1413
04:15:35.319 --> 04:15:43.479
relax deeply and to naturally fall asleep, but it's our

1414
04:15:43.680 --> 04:15:57.639
birth right, it's part of our DNA, and sometimes as

1415
04:15:57.680 --> 04:16:03.280
we get older in life, perhaps at times we have

1416
04:16:04.000 --> 04:16:19.360
britten relaxing completely. It's not only a wonderfully pleasant experience,

1417
04:16:25.159 --> 04:16:27.120
it's also really easy.

1418
04:16:38.479 --> 04:16:45.959
It's very very easy to let go because that's all

1419
04:16:46.040 --> 04:16:46.319
it is.

1420
04:16:46.479 --> 04:17:01.280
It's just decided to let go. And when you press

1421
04:17:01.520 --> 04:17:08.959
the play button on my recordings, you have given a

1422
04:17:09.079 --> 04:17:13.239
permission from my voice.

1423
04:17:14.479 --> 04:17:15.040
To relax.

1424
04:17:18.920 --> 04:17:22.440
When you press that play button, you have given me

1425
04:17:22.639 --> 04:17:30.559
permission for my words to effect.

1426
04:17:32.559 --> 04:17:44.360
You in a positive, only a positive way. Opening up

1427
04:17:49.600 --> 04:17:50.520
your mind.

1428
04:17:52.040 --> 04:18:03.520
Too useful, and he suggestions.

1429
04:18:07.200 --> 04:18:18.000
They can have such an amazing effect on how you

1430
04:18:18.280 --> 04:18:25.399
feel right now as well.

1431
04:18:27.920 --> 04:18:32.120
As those changes that continue.

1432
04:18:33.200 --> 04:18:34.479
Long after the.

1433
04:18:34.559 --> 04:18:45.200
Recording ends, those changes within you, they continue to flourish

1434
04:18:46.079 --> 04:19:00.639
and grow, transforming your life in positive, beautiful whole way,

1435
04:19:03.719 --> 04:19:10.799
allowing you to move forward in your life in the

1436
04:19:10.920 --> 04:19:28.879
direction that you choose for yourself. This feeling, this feeling

1437
04:19:29.200 --> 04:19:44.680
that you can experience a safety, comfort, calmness, This feels

1438
04:19:44.840 --> 04:20:06.120
so nice, such a healthy place to be, and that

1439
04:20:06.520 --> 04:20:11.239
positivity grows within you.

1440
04:20:17.040 --> 04:20:19.840
In every day.

1441
04:20:22.719 --> 04:20:32.479
Moving forward, you're hard to find that you're more relaxed

1442
04:20:34.840 --> 04:20:47.159
physically and in your mind is more relaxed. And it's

1443
04:20:47.239 --> 04:20:52.760
not that you're thinking slower, it's just that your mind

1444
04:20:52.879 --> 04:21:00.319
would be less to locked up with unnecessary negative tea

1445
04:21:04.120 --> 04:21:14.280
because from now on, your mind rejects negativity. From now on,

1446
04:21:14.959 --> 04:21:26.040
you're going to start noticing when negativity arises. You can

1447
04:21:26.200 --> 04:21:37.360
just say stop, stop and that negativity.

1448
04:21:39.120 --> 04:21:42.200
Will turn around and leave you alone.

1449
04:21:50.200 --> 04:22:08.559
Stop and that negativity would disappear, And that.

1450
04:22:08.719 --> 04:22:16.440
You notice that you feel way more relaxed than you

1451
04:22:16.680 --> 04:22:32.559
probably expected. You can now congratulate yourself because you're the

1452
04:22:32.719 --> 04:22:39.399
person that has done this. You other one that has

1453
04:22:39.639 --> 04:22:47.479
opened your mind up to the simple facts, and you

1454
04:22:47.799 --> 04:22:53.040
can feel more relaxed in your body and in your mind.

1455
04:22:59.280 --> 04:23:01.280
You've opened your mind up.

1456
04:23:01.399 --> 04:23:09.440
To the birthright of being able to just fall asleep

1457
04:23:09.840 --> 04:23:23.520
easily when you choose. And that's a nice feeling.

1458
04:23:25.159 --> 04:23:25.920
Don't you think.

1459
04:23:28.360 --> 04:23:29.680
It feels nice? Doesn't it?

1460
04:23:32.799 --> 04:23:39.680
To feel calm? All that hearing energy is spreading through

1461
04:23:39.719 --> 04:23:52.680
your body in your mind to spend time a special

1462
04:23:52.799 --> 04:24:08.680
place where negativity can no longer enter. Negativity is banned.

1463
04:24:09.760 --> 04:24:17.159
It's bod it's not allowed entry. It doesn't doesn't this

1464
04:24:17.719 --> 04:24:21.079
doesn't deserve to be here, doesn't been long here.

1465
04:24:24.799 --> 04:24:28.440
Negativity has no place in your.

1466
04:24:28.479 --> 04:24:40.760
Life, which makes room for more.

1467
04:24:41.239 --> 04:24:49.120
Comfort or heathing, or relaxation.

1468
04:24:53.280 --> 04:24:53.840
Or peace.

1469
04:25:10.799 --> 04:25:12.239
It feels nice as that.

1470
04:25:14.120 --> 04:25:18.280
Just let go.

1471
04:25:21.959 --> 04:25:22.600
Everything.

1472
04:25:36.280 --> 04:25:40.600
I'm gonna count down now from twenty down to one.

Five. This is your time.

To just take a break, your time, relax, to allow

1482
04:29:39.639 --> 04:29:51.959
your mind to slow down, to give yourself.

1483

Permission to take a break from everything. And Julie by

Just relax, to just.

1488
04:30:37.280 --> 04:30:50.159
Take some time off so that you can focus on

1489
04:30:50.280 --> 04:30:57.559
your buddy, getting in touch with how you feel physically

1490
04:31:06.440 --> 04:31:12.799
and in the process of this body scared where you

You expect when you listen to my woice.
