00:00:00.720 --> 00:00:03.480
Hello and welcome.

2
00:00:05.320 --> 00:00:12.839
To Q and A Friday on this lovely, sunny, warm Friday,

3
00:00:13.000 --> 00:00:20.239
the twentieth of Dewane, two thousand and twenty five.

4
00:00:22.280 --> 00:00:23.760
Hello, or.

5
00:00:27.960 --> 00:00:30.440
Please only listen when you can safely close your eyes

6
00:00:30.519 --> 00:00:32.840
And this is let me bore you to sleep or

7
00:00:33.600 --> 00:00:43.679
LMB Why yes, then no? So I just want to

8
00:00:43.719 --> 00:00:47.560
say a big welcome to the Jason Newlands boring Group

9
00:00:47.799 --> 00:00:59.159
two two Kerry and Julie. Ironically there's two Julie's exactly

10
00:00:59.159 --> 00:01:08.120
the same name, different joined at different times. But just

11
00:01:08.359 --> 00:01:15.319
yeah that Mike posted a comment. He asked me, you

12
00:01:15.439 --> 00:01:18.359
mentioned recently that the heat was getting to you. How

13
00:01:18.439 --> 00:01:19.959
hot has it been there recently?

14
00:01:20.480 --> 00:01:21.519
It's pretty pretty hot.

15
00:01:22.560 --> 00:01:25.959
It's I really felt it just now because I've just

16
00:01:26.000 --> 00:01:30.719
been out with Vinnie and what is it. It's three

17
00:01:31.040 --> 00:01:34.280
thirty five. So I got home about a half hour ago.

18
00:01:34.159 --> 00:01:35.120
Maybe a little bit longer.

19
00:01:38.200 --> 00:01:42.560
It didn't feel particularly hot out more, but I didn't,

20
00:01:42.640 --> 00:01:44.159
you know. But then I sat down, I was like,

21
00:01:47.359 --> 00:01:49.560
but I think that's because I have more clothes on

22
00:01:49.640 --> 00:01:53.680
now than I had when I went out. Let me explain.

23
00:01:55.040 --> 00:01:56.640
I actually was shorts.

24
00:01:57.359 --> 00:02:01.680
I know, I know, but I did wash shorts, not

25
00:02:01.840 --> 00:02:10.479
something that I normally do pretty much ever, but I

26
00:02:10.560 --> 00:02:15.800
did a war shorts and it's so much nicer than

27
00:02:16.120 --> 00:02:22.240
these blue tracksuit bottoms that have got holes in them.

28
00:02:22.560 --> 00:02:27.360
It's yeah, I have to have to make a change

29
00:02:28.280 --> 00:02:35.199
to the older tracksuit bottoms, but that will come entire

30
00:02:35.360 --> 00:02:38.439
my mama, Mama. Next week, I'm going to buy some

31
00:02:38.520 --> 00:02:45.120
new ones, a new pair. And yeah, so what's happened near.

32
00:02:48.199 --> 00:02:49.240
I had a shower.

33
00:02:51.280 --> 00:02:54.120
I didn't have a shave because I am charging my

34
00:02:54.280 --> 00:02:57.520
razor up because I didn't have a shave or a trim.

35
00:02:57.919 --> 00:03:01.120
I've been trying to keep everything trim, and when I

36
00:03:01.120 --> 00:03:04.840
say everything, I'm talking about my face and trying to

37
00:03:04.919 --> 00:03:07.319
keep my like my beard the same length as my

38
00:03:07.599 --> 00:03:11.319
hair on my head, kind of all kind of the same,

39
00:03:11.879 --> 00:03:15.560
very short, but the same length. I've let it go

40
00:03:16.039 --> 00:03:20.000
probably over a week now, so I was trimming it

41
00:03:20.159 --> 00:03:24.800
every at least twice a week, but I've let it

42
00:03:24.879 --> 00:03:30.759
grow a little bit. So I'm gonna when my rais

43
00:03:30.879 --> 00:03:35.479
is charged, I'm gonna have a little go have a

44
00:03:35.479 --> 00:03:37.280
little play with it and see if i can get

45
00:03:37.280 --> 00:03:44.080
it sorted out. So, yeah, it's been hot all over

46
00:03:44.080 --> 00:03:57.159
the place. Apparently that he does bring out the yawns

47
00:03:57.159 --> 00:03:57.360
in me.

48
00:03:58.120 --> 00:03:58.840
It really does.

49
00:04:00.080 --> 00:04:04.840
Apparently yawning is very therapeutic from a psychological perspective.

50
00:04:05.879 --> 00:04:06.360
It does.

51
00:04:07.639 --> 00:04:15.680
It produces certain let's say, hemorrhoids, then not hemorrhoids. I

52
00:04:15.680 --> 00:04:19.720
don't know, hormonies or whatever that.

53
00:04:18.839 --> 00:04:20.079
Make you feel relaxed.

54
00:04:21.600 --> 00:04:28.720
Hemorrhoids. I got hemorrhoids on the brain. I haven't blame me,

55
00:04:30.319 --> 00:04:32.920
just let you understand where my brain's kept.

56
00:04:34.279 --> 00:04:37.639
So now the don't.

57
00:04:41.000 --> 00:04:47.160
Just been watching the the Parliament channel, well, I actually

58
00:04:47.160 --> 00:04:50.319
have been watching the main news of big things has happened.

59
00:04:51.079 --> 00:04:55.560
A big new laws has come through in the UK,

60
00:04:57.639 --> 00:05:01.079
which some people will be happy about. Some people, I

61
00:05:01.079 --> 00:05:05.360
guess it won't be. There's always you know, there's going

62
00:05:05.439 --> 00:05:08.120
to be different people believing different things.

63
00:05:08.199 --> 00:05:12.360
But I'm not going to go into it.

64
00:05:12.439 --> 00:05:15.639
But I wish I had been around for my friend

65
00:05:16.800 --> 00:05:18.079
back in the late nineties.

66
00:05:19.800 --> 00:05:20.920
But they go.

67
00:05:26.360 --> 00:05:30.480
There is a bit of background sound, but background music

68
00:05:30.839 --> 00:05:36.399
down stairs, so I don't know if you can hear

69
00:05:36.480 --> 00:05:36.920
it a lot.

70
00:05:37.480 --> 00:05:38.680
Nothing I can do about it.

71
00:05:40.079 --> 00:05:43.920
And I can sit here and not make a recording,

72
00:05:44.199 --> 00:05:49.920
or I can sit here and make a recording. I'd

73
00:05:50.000 --> 00:05:53.639
rather sit here and make a recording because otherwise I'm

74
00:05:53.680 --> 00:05:55.279
sitting here just listening.

75
00:05:54.959 --> 00:06:01.000
To that music and it's loud to me.

76
00:06:01.639 --> 00:06:05.079
It's not that loud, really, but it's if I had

77
00:06:05.120 --> 00:06:10.160
a TV and I could probably cover it up. But

78
00:06:10.199 --> 00:06:13.439
I'm not really, not really in a mood to watch TV.

79
00:06:13.680 --> 00:06:16.120
Really, I'll kind of.

80
00:06:19.519 --> 00:06:24.279
I'm dedicated to see I'm dedicated to making the Q

81
00:06:24.439 --> 00:06:29.319
and A Fridays every Friday, which I've been doing for

82
00:06:29.480 --> 00:06:34.800
over a year now, BlimE me, over a year, you

83
00:06:34.879 --> 00:06:42.639
believe it, over a year. I'm just gonna have a look.

84
00:06:42.680 --> 00:06:48.720
How many let Me Boy the sleeps have I done?

85
00:06:50.199 --> 00:07:00.959
Last one I did was last let Me Boy I did.

86
00:07:01.160 --> 00:07:13.319
It was yesterday, number one thousand, three hundred and seventy nine.

87
00:07:13.759 --> 00:07:20.480
That's quite a lot in it, quite a lot. I

88
00:07:20.519 --> 00:07:23.360
actually have all already done.

89
00:07:23.360 --> 00:07:24.639
Two recordings today.

90
00:07:25.199 --> 00:07:32.160
One was a sleep Deep Sleep Whisper one and another

91
00:07:32.199 --> 00:07:38.560
one with a relaxation hypnosis for stress number two hundred

92
00:07:38.600 --> 00:07:43.120
and forty three, The Deep Sleep Whisper Hypnosis five hundred

93
00:07:43.120 --> 00:07:50.040
and thirty eight. There's a lot of recordings. I'm not

94
00:07:50.079 --> 00:07:52.839
sure if my mouth is too far away from the microphone,

95
00:07:55.199 --> 00:07:58.040
but I hope it's all right. I kind of think

96
00:07:58.079 --> 00:08:00.920
it gets it's a little bit, a little bit more

97
00:08:00.959 --> 00:08:03.120
of an echo. Not an echo, but a bit more.

98
00:08:04.360 --> 00:08:06.439
I've always see it is a bit more high pitched

99
00:08:06.480 --> 00:08:10.600
when it's the microphone's and I'm not the other side

100
00:08:10.639 --> 00:08:14.079
of the room from the microphone. Should I just show

101
00:08:14.120 --> 00:08:15.560
you what it sounds like if I move it a

102
00:08:15.600 --> 00:08:25.920
bit closer. That's too close. I think that's about it.

103
00:08:25.920 --> 00:08:30.040
That's right, Oka, moved it a bit. Could you understand

104
00:08:30.079 --> 00:08:39.440
what I said? I said, I want some pizza. Right,

105
00:08:40.279 --> 00:08:46.799
I'm trying to think. I can't think of any other

106
00:08:46.919 --> 00:08:51.840
things to really update you on, really, so I just

107
00:08:51.840 --> 00:08:53.759
suppose I just get on all the questions.

108
00:08:53.960 --> 00:08:57.360
Oh, oh my goodness.

109
00:08:59.679 --> 00:09:01.360
So I've got four questions.

110
00:09:02.600 --> 00:09:05.240
So it's not many, but it's more than last week.

111
00:09:05.840 --> 00:09:07.799
Ooks. Just bang the microphone.

112
00:09:07.960 --> 00:09:15.759
Sorry. So I've got questions from Hope, Tammy Ing and Allie.

113
00:09:18.039 --> 00:09:26.559
So what's the first question? What did I do yesterday?

114
00:09:26.600 --> 00:09:29.360
I'm sure did something that I've or did something today.

115
00:09:33.000 --> 00:09:33.279
I don't know.

116
00:09:33.320 --> 00:09:35.080
If you can hear all the scream in the garden.

117
00:09:36.159 --> 00:09:39.200
It's summer, the windows are open, people are out enjoying

118
00:09:39.200 --> 00:09:39.720
the summer.

119
00:09:40.480 --> 00:09:47.720
I can't. I'm not going to complain about it. I'm

120
00:09:47.720 --> 00:09:48.360
not really.

121
00:09:48.399 --> 00:09:50.720
I mean, I can't really can I insist like people

122
00:09:51.000 --> 00:09:53.759
can have fun and stuff just because.

123
00:09:53.480 --> 00:09:59.159
I'm a I'm a miserable old man, miserable old get

124
00:10:00.120 --> 00:10:05.480
sitting in my flat making podcasts instead of running around

125
00:10:05.519 --> 00:10:06.799
on the grass screaming.

126
00:10:08.360 --> 00:10:10.799
You know, it's each to their own in it.

127
00:10:12.279 --> 00:10:15.679
So Hope says, what is your favorite animal? What asks

128
00:10:15.720 --> 00:10:27.039
what is your favorite animal? And why?

129
00:10:29.759 --> 00:10:31.000
I would probably.

130
00:10:32.840 --> 00:10:40.720
So I'd break that up into three categories, because there's

131
00:10:40.799 --> 00:10:41.919
my favorite animals.

132
00:10:43.840 --> 00:10:46.000
See, I know birds are animals, but I kind of

133
00:10:47.679 --> 00:10:49.399
I like birds.

134
00:10:50.919 --> 00:10:55.519
I just really like birds, even small birds all the

135
00:10:55.559 --> 00:11:00.440
way out to golden eagles and falcons and especially birds

136
00:11:00.440 --> 00:11:05.159
of prey. I love watching them flying around. We have falcons,

137
00:11:05.200 --> 00:11:09.200
and we have buzzards and stuff we don't have. As

138
00:11:09.200 --> 00:11:11.600
far as I know, there's no golden eagles in this country.

139
00:11:13.080 --> 00:11:17.039
But there's no there are no barriers to stop birds

140
00:11:17.080 --> 00:11:20.519
from all over the world coming here, you know, no,

141
00:11:20.759 --> 00:11:25.000
there's no borders, there's you know, they can just fly

142
00:11:25.080 --> 00:11:28.200
where they want count they So if if a golden

143
00:11:28.240 --> 00:11:31.919
egger wanted to, for whatever reason, come and fly and

144
00:11:31.960 --> 00:11:35.960
spend time in my town, then it could. If it

145
00:11:36.000 --> 00:11:42.559
wanted to, but we don't get flamingos. I think some

146
00:11:42.679 --> 00:11:45.159
birds is a limit to how far they're willing to

147
00:11:45.240 --> 00:11:49.679
fly or can fly. But at the same time, I

148
00:11:49.720 --> 00:11:55.159
don't know if that's true. I made it up, because

149
00:11:55.159 --> 00:11:59.440
flamingos might actually fly for thousands and thousands of miles,

150
00:12:00.159 --> 00:12:08.159
maybe twenty thousand miles. And as flamingos in America and America,

151
00:12:08.200 --> 00:12:13.720
what is it eight thousand miles away from here? It's

152
00:12:13.759 --> 00:12:17.440
not that far away. Maybe it's is it eight thousand

153
00:12:20.039 --> 00:12:23.840
maybe less four thousand and five thousand miles away? So

154
00:12:23.919 --> 00:12:28.159
maybe flamingos can come here, they choose not to because

155
00:12:28.200 --> 00:12:34.879
it's not really their scene. They get seagulls everywhere all

156
00:12:34.919 --> 00:12:38.200
over the world, don't you, So they clearly they don't

157
00:12:38.320 --> 00:12:42.879
need that. They've clearly traveled around, but they don't need to.

158
00:12:44.639 --> 00:12:46.960
I sometimes think maybe they just travel. They just like

159
00:12:47.080 --> 00:12:49.480
all this because they can hitch lifts, can't They on

160
00:12:49.559 --> 00:12:54.919
boats and stuff. So a seagull doesn't even have to

161
00:12:54.919 --> 00:12:58.600
fly across the ocean. You can just sit.

162
00:12:58.480 --> 00:12:59.480
On one of the sails.

163
00:13:00.440 --> 00:13:03.039
Because we all still use sales on ships, don't we

164
00:13:04.039 --> 00:13:08.159
like the eighteen hundreds. I don't know what I'm talking

165
00:13:08.200 --> 00:13:11.639
about like the pirate days.

166
00:13:13.360 --> 00:13:15.200
Why is it the pirates? Pirates?

167
00:13:15.200 --> 00:13:17.440
They're just not as cuddly as they used to be,

168
00:13:17.440 --> 00:13:20.639
are they remember the pirates of the old days have

169
00:13:20.799 --> 00:13:25.600
been like Kirk Douglas and maybe have a patch and

170
00:13:25.679 --> 00:13:29.399
her eye, but they'd be they might have a hook

171
00:13:29.440 --> 00:13:34.559
on their hand, but they'd be kind of they'd be gritty,

172
00:13:34.720 --> 00:13:39.480
they'd be tough, but they'd still be quite gentle at times.

173
00:13:39.519 --> 00:13:39.879
You could.

174
00:13:40.480 --> 00:13:43.720
I don't know, I just i'd look at Captain Hooks sometimes,

175
00:13:43.759 --> 00:13:46.519
you know, in peter Pan or never Land or whatever

176
00:13:46.519 --> 00:13:48.919
you want to call it. I just look and I thought, yeah,

177
00:13:48.919 --> 00:13:52.720
he's a tough man. He's clearly he's had a difficult

178
00:13:53.320 --> 00:13:57.200
life and scavenging, and you know, he's had to keep

179
00:13:57.240 --> 00:14:01.360
all of the people in his crew in touch and

180
00:14:01.399 --> 00:14:03.519
make sure that everyone does what they're supposed to do,

181
00:14:03.600 --> 00:14:06.720
and running the ship's not easy. So he comes across

182
00:14:06.759 --> 00:14:13.480
as a very tough man. But underneath that big beard

183
00:14:13.720 --> 00:14:16.960
and the hat and the eye patch and the old

184
00:14:17.559 --> 00:14:20.720
parrot on his shoulder and the hook for a hand,

185
00:14:22.000 --> 00:14:25.360
I could kind of get a sense that he's a

186
00:14:25.399 --> 00:14:29.840
considerate lover. You know. I just kind of got that

187
00:14:30.039 --> 00:14:37.480
he was a gentle, gentle very. It's like you'd think, well,

188
00:14:38.879 --> 00:14:41.399
what could he do if he wasn't a pirate? And

189
00:14:41.480 --> 00:14:45.440
I would say, possibly be a care But someone laughs,

190
00:14:45.480 --> 00:14:50.039
say no, Captain Cook, that can be a carat. But

191
00:14:50.279 --> 00:14:53.480
I just I got that sense when I looked at him.

192
00:14:53.840 --> 00:14:58.639
I thought there's some compassion there, because people who have

193
00:14:58.720 --> 00:15:01.240
been through a lot know what it's like, so they

194
00:15:01.320 --> 00:15:05.960
kind of they they know that. I think it's that

195
00:15:06.000 --> 00:15:08.320
part that wants to help others. That's what I got

196
00:15:08.360 --> 00:15:15.639
from Captain Captain Cook. Now, the modern day pirates don't

197
00:15:15.799 --> 00:15:16.639
don't seem.

198
00:15:16.360 --> 00:15:18.840
To be his cud leaps, not as.

199
00:15:20.159 --> 00:15:27.000
Not as lovable as the old ones. I don't know why.

200
00:15:27.559 --> 00:15:32.559
What's your favorite animal? And why talking about pirates? I

201
00:15:32.600 --> 00:15:40.879
don't get it. You're vinced, like vinced me cuddles, that's it,

202
00:15:41.240 --> 00:15:43.960
That's all right. I guess good boy, good boy. He

203
00:15:44.120 --> 00:15:48.639
just just lay there and good boy. I think he's

204
00:15:48.679 --> 00:15:50.799
a little bit flustered with his heat.

205
00:15:51.360 --> 00:15:52.120
He's got water.

206
00:15:53.200 --> 00:15:56.120
It's not like he knows I'm talking about him.

207
00:15:56.120 --> 00:16:01.559
Don't you know that? Don't you? The things I bought

208
00:16:01.559 --> 00:16:04.840
these t r e E E E E.

209
00:16:04.879 --> 00:16:12.120
T s earlier, Yes, the day, Yeah.

210
00:16:11.159 --> 00:16:13.200
And he's eating the lord of them already and they're like.

211
00:16:13.159 --> 00:16:17.519
Nearly four pound. I mean, he get through a pack

212
00:16:17.559 --> 00:16:21.519
of Day. It's ridiculous he can't because I'm not I'm

213
00:16:21.519 --> 00:16:26.279
not buying a pack of Day. But it just seems

214
00:16:26.320 --> 00:16:31.360
a shame that is, because they're like these chicken stick

215
00:16:31.480 --> 00:16:35.399
things that he loves them, really loves them, but he

216
00:16:35.480 --> 00:16:44.039
gets thridden so quickly, so so so quickly. And I

217
00:16:44.080 --> 00:16:46.799
want to say a big high to Ben as well

218
00:16:46.879 --> 00:16:49.519
again and I always mentioned this, but I just want

219
00:16:49.519 --> 00:16:51.200
to say thank you to Ben for the other day,

220
00:16:51.279 --> 00:16:59.120
for your kind words. And there was another post here

221
00:16:59.320 --> 00:17:02.360
where is it? There was another post that I've not

222
00:17:02.480 --> 00:17:05.519
read down. I don't know where it is. Let me

223
00:17:05.559 --> 00:17:11.599
have a look, let me have a look, and maybe

224
00:17:11.640 --> 00:17:30.000
it's Oh maybe it's there. Sorry, I'm sorry, Nope, do

225
00:17:30.119 --> 00:17:30.640
you ever?

226
00:17:32.200 --> 00:17:32.559
Oh what.

227
00:17:38.039 --> 00:17:40.000
I'm I'm pretty sure.

228
00:17:39.799 --> 00:17:40.400
That was weird.

229
00:17:40.559 --> 00:17:43.400
I just I got feedback in my own ear. Then

230
00:17:44.880 --> 00:17:47.680
I kind of got like fuzzy feed back in my

231
00:17:47.799 --> 00:17:48.319
left ear.

232
00:17:48.960 --> 00:17:56.880
How weird? Where is it? I had a lovely.

233
00:17:56.720 --> 00:18:08.279
Comment Hope says lol, loved the pic. Thank you that

234
00:18:08.359 --> 00:18:11.440
was for Yesterday's a busy day. That was a good pick.

235
00:18:11.440 --> 00:18:14.359
It's a picture of me and Vinnie. Vinnie's got a

236
00:18:14.440 --> 00:18:17.920
hat on his sunglasses. I've got sunglasses and for some reason,

237
00:18:17.920 --> 00:18:19.599
I got less hair than I actually have.

238
00:18:21.519 --> 00:18:22.079
At the front.

239
00:18:27.359 --> 00:18:34.680
I do know what's going on there, and oh, can't

240
00:18:34.880 --> 00:18:40.279
find it. There was a comment. There was a lovely comment,

241
00:18:40.319 --> 00:18:44.000
and I can't find it. This is one of the

242
00:18:44.039 --> 00:18:49.799
problems that I have. Oh Hope wrote I love it

243
00:18:49.799 --> 00:18:52.440
when you yawn. I get sympathetic yawns and it helps

244
00:18:52.440 --> 00:18:53.359
me feel sleepy.

245
00:18:54.079 --> 00:18:54.440
Thank you.

246
00:18:58.960 --> 00:19:01.640
There was a particular maybe it was a message. I'm

247
00:19:01.640 --> 00:19:05.480
sure it was a comment though, and it wouldn't been

248
00:19:05.680 --> 00:19:14.400
probably on any other of the I think, Ah, that's

249
00:19:14.440 --> 00:19:18.200
gonna that's gonna wind me up now, not being able

250
00:19:18.240 --> 00:19:21.519
to find that. If you posted a comment on my

251
00:19:21.680 --> 00:19:27.279
Facebook page and I haven't responded, I apologize because.

252
00:19:28.440 --> 00:19:29.680
I think because.

253
00:19:29.680 --> 00:19:34.240
Basically I've been posting so much stuff lately. I've been

254
00:19:34.240 --> 00:19:41.960
making a lot of recordings the last hm hmm few days.

255
00:19:45.400 --> 00:19:57.319
But I yeah, I basically I can't find it. It

256
00:19:57.400 --> 00:20:15.920
was about Spotify. I can't It was about Spotify. I

257
00:20:15.960 --> 00:20:16.839
can't find it.

258
00:20:18.240 --> 00:20:18.640
Anyway.

259
00:20:18.680 --> 00:20:27.759
I do apologize because there were Natasha, Oh, Natasha, it

260
00:20:27.799 --> 00:20:32.079
was Natasha's message. Hi Natasha, so sorry, I've only just

261
00:20:32.160 --> 00:20:35.640
seen this. I'll be listening on Spotify and Jason. You

262
00:20:35.680 --> 00:20:38.440
have been a godsend have helped me massively with my sleep.

263
00:20:39.000 --> 00:20:41.279
Thank you, Natasha. It's very kind of you.

264
00:20:45.920 --> 00:20:48.880
Oh that was welcoming Natasha.

265
00:20:48.200 --> 00:20:49.000
To the group.

266
00:20:49.799 --> 00:20:54.400
That was like from the fifteenth of June. So that's

267
00:20:54.400 --> 00:20:58.319
all right, Natasha. Is the thing is, because I've got

268
00:20:58.400 --> 00:21:05.160
tendency of keep hope stuff, I lose track of my

269
00:21:05.279 --> 00:21:17.799
own recordings. I generally do do do do do do

270
00:21:17.960 --> 00:21:24.720
do do ooh ooh ooh ooh, whoops.

271
00:21:26.079 --> 00:21:28.079
All right, let me go back, let me go back,

272
00:21:28.319 --> 00:21:33.359
let me go back. So I just just lost my place.

273
00:21:34.839 --> 00:21:36.079
Right coming back, I am.

274
00:21:36.240 --> 00:21:39.519
I'm going to do the Do you have any questions?

275
00:21:39.519 --> 00:21:42.759
Here we go? Questions?

276
00:21:47.799 --> 00:21:51.839
What is your favorite animal and why? If you'd have

277
00:21:51.920 --> 00:21:56.759
asked me that three years ago, I would have said, God,

278
00:21:56.799 --> 00:22:03.000
my instant answer would have been a ferrit. It's very

279
00:22:03.039 --> 00:22:06.000
hard for me, having this little doggie next to me,

280
00:22:06.799 --> 00:22:10.680
to be giving favor over you know, to something, to

281
00:22:10.720 --> 00:22:14.640
a different animal over him. So I feel I need

282
00:22:14.680 --> 00:22:18.400
to say for me, it's not if I was kind

283
00:22:18.400 --> 00:22:25.880
of like a particular animal then it's Vinnie and Andre,

284
00:22:26.160 --> 00:22:28.839
although Wandre is not with me anymore, but you know Vinnie,

285
00:22:29.319 --> 00:22:37.319
he's the one that, you know, my favorite animal. That actually,

286
00:22:37.559 --> 00:22:39.680
I think what you're asking, Hope is what is my

287
00:22:39.759 --> 00:22:42.640
favorite not who is my favorite animal? What is my

288
00:22:42.680 --> 00:22:47.480
favorite animal? What type of animal? I wonder if I

289
00:22:47.559 --> 00:22:50.880
can send this to the television?

290
00:22:52.519 --> 00:22:53.519
This is exciting?

291
00:22:53.640 --> 00:22:55.480
Can I can?

292
00:22:55.559 --> 00:22:55.960
I can?

293
00:22:56.000 --> 00:22:58.720
I can? I can? I can I send this to

294
00:22:58.799 --> 00:23:06.559
the television? How do I display settings? And no, doesn't

295
00:23:06.559 --> 00:23:08.920
seem to do it. I can do it on my

296
00:23:08.960 --> 00:23:11.200
iPad and my phone, but I don't know if they

297
00:23:11.200 --> 00:23:16.599
can do on the laptop. Right, It's a favorite animal.

298
00:23:18.079 --> 00:23:21.759
I've always had, well not always, but I really like

299
00:23:22.000 --> 00:23:28.200
penguins because I did a spiritual not spiritual what is

300
00:23:28.240 --> 00:23:33.480
it called a dream thing?

301
00:23:34.319 --> 00:23:40.039
A dream to find my dream or my spiritual animal,

302
00:23:40.319 --> 00:23:43.400
and a penguin was it. And it was something to

303
00:23:43.440 --> 00:23:48.640
do with the tenacity, the never giving up. Some would

304
00:23:48.720 --> 00:23:51.480
argue that I'm always giving up, but actually I never

305
00:23:51.519 --> 00:23:51.920
give up.

306
00:23:53.839 --> 00:23:54.519
I just.

307
00:23:56.440 --> 00:24:00.400
Dropped certain things, but I never give up.

308
00:24:01.160 --> 00:24:01.400
You know.

309
00:24:02.640 --> 00:24:09.759
It's a weird one, hard to explain, really, Yeah, but

310
00:24:09.839 --> 00:24:12.599
I don't, Yeah, I don't. I mean, I've given up

311
00:24:12.599 --> 00:24:17.599
a lot of things, but I never give up the

312
00:24:17.680 --> 00:24:23.079
most important things, which is this to me. I mean,

313
00:24:23.119 --> 00:24:26.319
to me, this is the most important thing. And I

314
00:24:26.319 --> 00:24:30.640
would never give up on this little boy here, so

315
00:24:33.359 --> 00:24:35.440
and I hope I'd never give up on myself either,

316
00:24:39.119 --> 00:24:42.720
But other things along the road. You know, I used

317
00:24:42.720 --> 00:24:44.119
to be quite attached.

318
00:24:43.720 --> 00:24:44.440
To my hair.

319
00:24:46.440 --> 00:24:48.839
I've given up on that now. It's kind of okay,

320
00:24:48.880 --> 00:24:54.519
fair enough. I am pollically challenged now, and the fact

321
00:24:54.559 --> 00:24:57.039
I keep mentioning it means that I'm not okay with it.

322
00:25:01.039 --> 00:25:02.680
But there's certain things you can do.

323
00:25:02.880 --> 00:25:05.680
I could have a My hair is not that bad

324
00:25:05.720 --> 00:25:08.680
that i'd need a hair transplant necessarily, but I could

325
00:25:08.759 --> 00:25:11.200
go down that road. I'm not going to. I would

326
00:25:11.279 --> 00:25:15.119
never do that. It's not really, it's not me. I

327
00:25:15.200 --> 00:25:19.440
understand why some people do, especially maybe some really young people.

328
00:25:20.960 --> 00:25:23.680
You know, someone's in their twenties. They might want to

329
00:25:23.920 --> 00:25:29.799
go down that road. I'm in my mid fifties. There's

330
00:25:30.160 --> 00:25:33.640
I don't. I don't think anyone even looks at me anyway,

331
00:25:33.720 --> 00:25:35.559
so no one's going to notice if I'm bored or

332
00:25:35.559 --> 00:25:36.079
not bored.

333
00:25:36.359 --> 00:25:37.200
I could walk.

334
00:25:37.039 --> 00:25:41.200
Around with I just covered my head with peanut butter

335
00:25:43.240 --> 00:25:48.400
and walk around and no one will probably noticed, maybe

336
00:25:48.440 --> 00:25:51.319
because that's how I normally walk around.

337
00:25:50.599 --> 00:25:52.160
Did it did?

338
00:25:53.279 --> 00:25:56.519
No, people don't look at me anymore so, but I'm

339
00:25:56.519 --> 00:26:00.240
not sure if they ever did. But fifty five pretty

340
00:26:00.319 --> 00:26:00.960
much invisible.

341
00:26:03.920 --> 00:26:07.759
But I learned being invisible. Being invisible does not mean

342
00:26:07.759 --> 00:26:09.000
that you can walk through walls.

343
00:26:10.359 --> 00:26:12.640
Yeah, I don't know why why I thought that.

344
00:26:14.759 --> 00:26:15.880
I hurt myself.

345
00:26:17.559 --> 00:26:22.680
Uh. Not a big fan of seagulls. I do like birds,

346
00:26:22.720 --> 00:26:26.240
but seagulls are the ones that I just I just

347
00:26:26.319 --> 00:26:31.079
find them a little bit a little bit too much,

348
00:26:32.759 --> 00:26:37.720
a little bit just a little bit like I don't

349
00:26:37.720 --> 00:26:43.960
know what it is. I think they're nice on the beach,

350
00:26:44.720 --> 00:26:47.680
you know, the sound of seagulls and the waves and

351
00:26:47.799 --> 00:26:54.480
the sea, and that's a nice sound. But you know,

352
00:26:54.519 --> 00:26:56.839
I do like the sounds of the birds in the trees,

353
00:26:57.680 --> 00:27:00.640
the tree outside here, and that's one of the best

354
00:27:00.640 --> 00:27:04.839
things about living here really for me, auditarily. I like

355
00:27:04.960 --> 00:27:08.079
the you know, I like the sounds of the birds.

356
00:27:15.240 --> 00:27:21.000
I don't ever really get bored with birds. You know,

357
00:27:21.079 --> 00:27:24.079
they don't it don't keep me awake, it don't it

358
00:27:24.119 --> 00:27:28.000
don't disturb me. I find it very relaxing. Even if

359
00:27:28.039 --> 00:27:32.640
it's pigeons, not so much, you know, but one of

360
00:27:32.640 --> 00:27:35.000
my best friends as a pigeon, Horace, so I can't.

361
00:27:35.039 --> 00:27:38.119
I'm not gonna be prejudiced against pigeons, but they can

362
00:27:38.160 --> 00:27:43.599
be a little bit, a little bit demanding. Sometimes they're

363
00:27:43.599 --> 00:27:45.400
a little bit like you ever have a friend that

364
00:27:45.480 --> 00:27:47.640
will phone you and then just keep phoning you until

365
00:27:47.640 --> 00:27:52.640
you answer. They won't take the hint. You know, You

366
00:27:52.720 --> 00:27:54.839
change your number and they still find out your number

367
00:27:55.160 --> 00:27:57.759
and phone you. You move to a different country and

368
00:27:57.799 --> 00:27:59.359
they still find out where you're live in, you know.

369
00:27:59.519 --> 00:28:04.599
Just that's what pigeons are like. I mean, Horace has

370
00:28:04.599 --> 00:28:07.880
been following me around for about thirty five years, so

371
00:28:08.039 --> 00:28:09.039
I used to he used to be.

372
00:28:08.960 --> 00:28:13.319
In Strafford with me. Serious.

373
00:28:16.279 --> 00:28:22.119
He did look a lot different back then though half

374
00:28:22.160 --> 00:28:32.599
the size. So favorite animal probably ferret, you know, if

375
00:28:32.599 --> 00:28:36.319
we're going to move Vinnie out of this Dogs are okay.

376
00:28:36.960 --> 00:28:38.960
I'm not really a dog person.

377
00:28:39.279 --> 00:28:42.000
As good as maybe as it sounds weird considering I've

378
00:28:42.000 --> 00:28:45.160
got a dog, but I'm not really I love dog

379
00:28:45.319 --> 00:28:48.680
loved dogs are nice, but I'm not like I like

380
00:28:48.799 --> 00:28:51.559
little dogs. I've got a little dog, but I would

381
00:28:51.640 --> 00:28:52.240
never want.

382
00:28:52.079 --> 00:28:53.680
A big dog. It's just not.

383
00:28:55.160 --> 00:28:56.559
I had a big dog when I was a kid

384
00:28:56.839 --> 00:28:59.519
that I had one of the biggest dogs you could have,

385
00:29:00.039 --> 00:29:04.279
a Saint Bernard when for the last year and a

386
00:29:04.359 --> 00:29:08.400
half or ever of being at home as when I

387
00:29:08.440 --> 00:29:09.480
was at school.

388
00:29:11.480 --> 00:29:12.200
So that was.

389
00:29:15.839 --> 00:29:16.160
Yeah.

390
00:29:16.279 --> 00:29:19.920
I just I don't know. I just everyone's got their preference.

391
00:29:19.960 --> 00:29:26.440
And I like little dogs, even like two hours or

392
00:29:27.119 --> 00:29:31.160
poodles stuff like that. They're the ones. And I know

393
00:29:31.319 --> 00:29:33.279
some people wouldn't want to walk around the street with

394
00:29:33.599 --> 00:29:36.359
a pink poodle, like some men.

395
00:29:36.240 --> 00:29:41.799
Wouldn't want to do that, but I don't care like it.

396
00:29:41.799 --> 00:29:47.240
It's there's nothing I don't I don't find masculinities got

397
00:29:47.279 --> 00:29:50.920
anything to do with whether or not i'd die my

398
00:29:51.480 --> 00:29:56.559
poodle pink and put bows in their ears and we're

399
00:29:56.599 --> 00:30:01.240
matching outfits with her. I wi also wear a collar

400
00:30:01.319 --> 00:30:05.039
and walk color fours. I don't think that determines what

401
00:30:05.119 --> 00:30:09.680
kind of a person I am, or maybe it does.

402
00:30:10.960 --> 00:30:14.119
Oh dear, what am I talking about? What's my favorite animal?

403
00:30:16.519 --> 00:30:23.400
M always like monkeys when I was little, loved monkeys. See,

404
00:30:23.480 --> 00:30:24.160
I grew up in.

405
00:30:24.119 --> 00:30:27.720
An age, in an age back in the day.

406
00:30:29.559 --> 00:30:32.200
In it used to be a lot of monkeys about

407
00:30:32.599 --> 00:30:35.880
on television, so we had things like PG Tips. There

408
00:30:35.920 --> 00:30:41.799
was monkeys on there. There was Clyde, the Orangutang that

409
00:30:42.000 --> 00:30:46.400
was on. It's on a few few movies actually every

410
00:30:46.400 --> 00:30:49.160
which way but loose every which way you can, which

411
00:30:49.279 --> 00:30:55.519
was Clint Eastwood loved them movies. And also he was

412
00:30:55.599 --> 00:30:58.160
in I think one of the cannon Ball Run movies,

413
00:30:58.359 --> 00:31:03.480
maybe both of them, and very likely at other things

414
00:31:03.519 --> 00:31:06.319
as well. I think he was always called I think

415
00:31:06.359 --> 00:31:13.079
he was always called Clyde. See what those cannon Ball

416
00:31:13.160 --> 00:31:16.200
Run films did. If anyone who doesn't know what a

417
00:31:16.279 --> 00:31:19.960
cannon Ball Run movie is, I think there was two.

418
00:31:21.000 --> 00:31:23.160
Both had do you believe?

419
00:31:23.240 --> 00:31:25.680
Both had Burt Reynolds in them, and he got paid

420
00:31:26.519 --> 00:31:30.640
huge amounts of money to make them. I was a

421
00:31:30.680 --> 00:31:35.119
big fan of Burt Reynolds. I just think he had

422
00:31:35.640 --> 00:31:43.319
the charisma he had on screen was just, I don't

423
00:31:43.359 --> 00:31:49.920
know something about him. It wasn't that he was kind

424
00:31:49.920 --> 00:31:53.240
of oscary kind of material. I'm sure he could have

425
00:31:53.319 --> 00:31:55.640
I don't know, he might want an oscar, but he

426
00:31:55.799 --> 00:32:03.880
just had a really really nice personality on screen. And

427
00:32:04.160 --> 00:32:06.920
my favorites were the Cannonball Run movies that he did.

428
00:32:07.079 --> 00:32:08.240
But He also did.

429
00:32:10.200 --> 00:32:14.599
Smoking the Bandit as well, didn't he so, And that

430
00:32:14.799 --> 00:32:17.960
was basically Smoking the Band It was almost the same

431
00:32:18.000 --> 00:32:19.640
as the Cannonball Run movies.

432
00:32:21.960 --> 00:32:22.480
But what the.

433
00:32:22.440 --> 00:32:27.799
Cannonball Run movies did is they got all the stars

434
00:32:27.839 --> 00:32:32.400
of the day all together, or some of the stars

435
00:32:32.400 --> 00:32:35.960
of yesterday, you know, all these Really everyone in it

436
00:32:36.000 --> 00:32:37.480
was famous pretty much.

437
00:32:38.240 --> 00:32:40.119
There was a couple of newer people.

438
00:32:41.960 --> 00:32:45.559
For example, Jackie Chan was in it, and I don't

439
00:32:45.599 --> 00:32:48.759
think anyone really outside of the martial arts world knew

440
00:32:48.759 --> 00:32:51.160
who Jackie Chan was at that time, because i it

441
00:32:51.160 --> 00:32:56.880
was the early eighties. He was a big star in

442
00:32:56.920 --> 00:33:03.680
the Oriental world, but in you know, in America and

443
00:33:03.759 --> 00:33:08.680
in the English speaking world, it was only really people

444
00:33:08.720 --> 00:33:11.920
that watched kung fu movies that really wouldn't know who

445
00:33:11.920 --> 00:33:19.160
he was. And then he had he had Jaws, Richard

446
00:33:19.240 --> 00:33:25.160
Kill he was in it. He had Clyde Dean Martin

447
00:33:25.200 --> 00:33:29.359
I think, was in it. It's like so many famous

448
00:33:29.359 --> 00:33:34.839
people in those movies. I'm surprised if they made any

449
00:33:34.839 --> 00:33:40.000
money at all. Actually, the budget must have been huge, and.

450
00:33:39.960 --> 00:33:40.960
They were funny as well.

451
00:33:40.960 --> 00:33:43.680
It was just slapstick comedy and it was just a

452
00:33:44.279 --> 00:33:48.160
big race all lots of different people in cars, just racing,

453
00:33:48.240 --> 00:33:55.640
and there was was it Charlie's Angels did A couple

454
00:33:55.640 --> 00:34:00.200
of Charlie's Angels was in it as well, I think,

455
00:34:00.920 --> 00:34:07.920
and I'm trying to think who else? Yeah, there was loads.

456
00:34:08.000 --> 00:34:08.639
I can't think.

457
00:34:08.719 --> 00:34:09.079
I don't.

458
00:34:09.440 --> 00:34:10.760
I was going to say, I don't have the I

459
00:34:10.800 --> 00:34:12.199
do have the information in front of me.

460
00:34:12.480 --> 00:34:13.079
What am I doing?

461
00:34:13.159 --> 00:34:15.039
I can look it up? Can I? What did I

462
00:34:15.119 --> 00:34:24.039

dom de Lu's Okay, So I'm just gonna read out

465
00:34:39.639 --> 00:34:42.760
the ones that I've heard of. I probably do know him,

466
00:34:42.760 --> 00:34:45.280
but I just don't re recognize the name. Dean Martin,

467
00:34:46.719 --> 00:35:05.440
Sammy Davis Jr. Jackie Chan, Peter Fonder, Bianca Jagger. Okay,

468
00:35:07.679 --> 00:35:10.239
I'm just skipping through. There's quite a few that I

469
00:35:10.320 --> 00:35:15.840
recognize the faces, but I don't recognize the names. Robert Tesla,

470
00:35:16.320 --> 00:35:23.320
he was the do you remember Charles Bronson the street Fighter?

471
00:35:24.840 --> 00:35:32.679
He was the bloke that fought Charles Bronson. Okay, Right,

472
00:35:32.760 --> 00:35:34.639
so I'm going to go back if I go to

473
00:35:34.719 --> 00:35:42.719
Cannibalal Run two. Okay, let me go Cannonball Run two cast.

474
00:35:46.960 --> 00:35:48.800
Let's have a look to see who's in this one.

475
00:35:54.159 --> 00:35:59.920
But Reynolds again, Dom deLuce, Dean Martines.

476
00:36:00.360 --> 00:36:04.559
I'm just why is that this is the Cannonball Run two?

477
00:36:06.239 --> 00:36:06.639
Mm hmm.

478
00:36:08.559 --> 00:36:11.000
All about Kennon bourrun, Sid Caesar.

479
00:36:11.800 --> 00:36:24.119
It's very famous comedian Sid Caesar, Tony Danzer, Richard Keel, Jaws, Wow,

480
00:36:24.320 --> 00:36:36.400
Frank Sinatra, Henry Silver, Doug McClure. I'm saying it like

481
00:36:36.440 --> 00:36:38.079
I know who he is. I'm not sure.

482
00:36:38.199 --> 00:36:38.760
I think I do.

483
00:36:42.239 --> 00:36:45.800
And you've got the rest of the cast. Okay, what

484
00:36:45.880 --> 00:36:50.280
about cannon cannon Ball Run one? Then Kennon Bor run

485
00:36:56.280 --> 00:37:03.760
so but maybe the same period. I said, this is

486
00:37:03.760 --> 00:37:08.159
Burt Reynolds again, Roger Moore, thorough Force it, Dean Main.

487
00:37:08.280 --> 00:37:10.639
I's a lot of the same people then according to this.

488
00:37:11.960 --> 00:37:20.440
Hmm okay, Jackie Chan, I don't know if they're just

489
00:37:20.519 --> 00:37:22.840
repeating it. I'm not sure if it is the same people.

490
00:37:23.159 --> 00:37:25.320
I'm sure it's different people in different ones.

491
00:37:26.800 --> 00:37:29.440
Hmm, me me me.

492
00:37:31.639 --> 00:37:33.760
But anyway, there was a lot of famous names, a

493
00:37:33.760 --> 00:37:38.599
lot of famous faces from that period. I'm surprised that

494
00:37:39.199 --> 00:37:45.800
night Rider wasn't in it, and the Incredible Hulk and

495
00:37:45.960 --> 00:37:55.559
Wonder Woman like Lindsay Carter and members of the A team.

496
00:37:55.800 --> 00:37:55.960
Mike.

497
00:37:56.199 --> 00:37:59.039
Yeah, I'm surprised about that because they would have all

498
00:37:59.079 --> 00:38:02.119
been unless the eighteen was a little bit later on.

499
00:38:03.639 --> 00:38:07.159
That might have been a little bit later. But they're

500
00:38:07.159 --> 00:38:09.719
a great movie. It's just so funny, a lot of fun.

501
00:38:12.119 --> 00:38:15.880
And Clyde was in there, and he was in Oranger Tang.

502
00:38:16.320 --> 00:38:18.800
So yeah, I like monkeys.

503
00:38:20.400 --> 00:38:23.320
I used to. I quite liked dolphins.

504
00:38:26.159 --> 00:38:29.960
I think it's remember Flipper the TV show was the

505
00:38:30.079 --> 00:38:33.239
Australian or American and I think it might have been Australian.

506
00:38:33.960 --> 00:38:35.679
It's like they called.

507
00:38:35.480 --> 00:38:42.960
Him Flipper Flipper do nothing we see me? They called

508
00:38:43.000 --> 00:38:55.039
him Flipper Flipper. No do do do do do do

509
00:38:56.159 --> 00:39:00.599
must go hands I've always did it, must get hands, always.

510
00:39:00.360 --> 00:39:04.960
Ready ready for somebody. Musco House on more for one,

511
00:39:05.440 --> 00:39:10.320
don't hear the story? Yeah, I think I got them

512
00:39:10.400 --> 00:39:20.719
tunes muddled up. I think after living with a ferret

513
00:39:20.800 --> 00:39:22.239
for six and a half years.

514
00:39:23.800 --> 00:39:26.079
And I just love ferrets.

515
00:39:27.400 --> 00:39:27.599
I do.

516
00:39:28.280 --> 00:39:30.920
I can't help it, just and yeah I do.

517
00:39:34.159 --> 00:39:37.159
I've never I've never met a puppy or kitten. I

518
00:39:37.239 --> 00:39:41.239
didn't want to just hug they're always cute and they

519
00:39:41.960 --> 00:39:50.800
imagine even like a baby lion, it's probably cute. And

520
00:39:51.000 --> 00:39:54.159
some would probably say, yeah, they're cute when they're big. Okay,

521
00:39:54.280 --> 00:39:56.800
go and give it a hugged. Then if you think

522
00:39:56.880 --> 00:39:59.519
it's it's very cute and caddly, God give me give

523
00:39:59.559 --> 00:39:59.920
a big.

524
00:40:02.760 --> 00:40:04.440
No, and.

525
00:40:06.480 --> 00:40:07.440
Yeah, I like her.

526
00:40:08.599 --> 00:40:17.119
I like animals generally. Yeah, I think.

527
00:40:19.599 --> 00:40:24.599
Penguins are like penguins. Favorite animals.

528
00:40:26.679 --> 00:40:31.679
Probably going to go with a ferret overall.

529
00:40:37.039 --> 00:40:40.000
But my favorite animal is of course it's a vinny.

530
00:40:40.519 --> 00:40:41.199
But I don't really.

531
00:40:41.079 --> 00:40:44.280
Classroom as an animal. He's my son, and Andrea was

532
00:40:44.360 --> 00:40:54.719
my son. I did in classicism as a ferret. Favorite animal, Yeah,

533
00:40:54.719 --> 00:40:59.880
I've never had a horse. I think elephants are cool,

534
00:41:01.519 --> 00:41:06.960
but I don't know a bit demanding.

535
00:41:08.360 --> 00:41:08.920
Hard work.

536
00:41:10.360 --> 00:41:12.119
You're limited to what you can do with an elephant.

537
00:41:15.599 --> 00:41:24.039
You're limited to where you can go. Yeah.

538
00:41:25.199 --> 00:41:26.480
I like dinosaurs.

539
00:41:31.880 --> 00:41:35.519
Before anyone says they don't e gift anymore, they don't

540
00:41:35.639 --> 00:41:41.960
thought don't exist. Okay, well, what's the crocodile, what's the rhinosisaurus?

541
00:41:43.800 --> 00:41:48.360
What's an elephant? They are dinosaurs. They are the dinosaurs.

542
00:41:50.360 --> 00:41:51.960
If a crocodile isn't a dinosaur.

543
00:41:52.039 --> 00:41:52.360
What is it?

544
00:41:54.320 --> 00:41:57.400
Those things have been around for millions of years. They

545
00:41:57.440 --> 00:42:02.440
are dinosaurs, so they're how I don't argue on that one.

546
00:42:03.719 --> 00:42:10.320
To me, it's factual, but it might be wrong. I

547
00:42:10.400 --> 00:42:13.000
don't know. I just I feel all animals have kind

548
00:42:13.000 --> 00:42:14.400
of got something nice.

549
00:42:17.320 --> 00:42:18.440
Deers are nice.

550
00:42:20.440 --> 00:42:25.079
Little bambies raindeers, I mean, because obviously they help get

551
00:42:25.159 --> 00:42:29.840
presents to everyone around the world in one night.

552
00:42:31.480 --> 00:42:31.760
Hm.

553
00:42:34.800 --> 00:42:37.719
The thing is, yeah, that one hard night's work. But

554
00:42:37.880 --> 00:42:39.719
they get to sleep the rest of the year, don't they.

555
00:42:44.159 --> 00:42:51.480
Tammy asks, what is a good way to destress in

556
00:42:51.760 --> 00:42:57.599
conjunction with your beautiful with your beautiful loss.

557
00:42:58.760 --> 00:43:01.039
As an addition and at night?

558
00:43:01.880 --> 00:43:02.199
M hm.

559
00:43:05.039 --> 00:43:14.480
I'm not sure where to go with that one. I suppose.

560
00:43:17.239 --> 00:43:27.599
I think, man if I think it's important to there's

561
00:43:27.599 --> 00:43:33.599
a few things you could do to improve the potentially

562
00:43:33.719 --> 00:43:37.880
the experience of comfort. Make sure you've got a comfortable bed,

563
00:43:41.599 --> 00:43:44.880
make sure that you're wearing something comfortable. And I know

564
00:43:45.039 --> 00:43:47.559
some people don't wear clothes in bed, don't wear anything

565
00:43:47.599 --> 00:43:50.840
in bed, but what just make sure that you haven't

566
00:43:50.880 --> 00:43:56.559
got anything constricting on. It's make sure you're you're nice

567
00:43:56.639 --> 00:44:04.559
and you know, basically you need to feel comfortable anyway,

568
00:44:05.920 --> 00:44:08.880
like physically so you can. So when you lay down

569
00:44:08.920 --> 00:44:16.480
in bed, the very least I expect is to just

570
00:44:16.639 --> 00:44:21.840
lie down and be supported.

571
00:44:22.599 --> 00:44:26.119
But I don't. I don't mean like crowd of people clapping.

572
00:44:26.440 --> 00:44:31.440
I mean just feel physically supported by the bed, but

573
00:44:31.800 --> 00:44:42.000
enjoy that moment where I lay down and feel that

574
00:44:42.119 --> 00:44:44.199
I can move. So if I want to move to

575
00:44:44.360 --> 00:44:48.480
one side or move over the other side, you know,

576
00:44:48.800 --> 00:44:52.199
I don't wear a tight top because sometimes I don't

577
00:44:52.280 --> 00:44:55.679
want that constriction. I like to be able to just

578
00:44:55.960 --> 00:45:02.159
move freely, So wearing something.

579
00:45:02.119 --> 00:45:05.960
Baggy in bed I think can help.

580
00:45:10.159 --> 00:45:15.840
Having a decent temperature in the room as well, because.

581
00:45:17.079 --> 00:45:18.519
Depends where you live in the world.

582
00:45:19.079 --> 00:45:22.440
At the moment, here it's quite warm at night, a

583
00:45:22.480 --> 00:45:28.440
little bit warmer than normal anyway. But I don't think

584
00:45:28.480 --> 00:45:32.039
there's anything to be gained from sleeping in a really

585
00:45:32.199 --> 00:45:38.440
cold room in the winter and be under your cover shivering.

586
00:45:39.079 --> 00:45:45.280
That's just not very relaxing, I don't think personally. Another

587
00:45:45.360 --> 00:45:47.360
thing is not to go to bed when you're hungry.

588
00:45:49.559 --> 00:45:50.760
I've noticed that myself.

589
00:45:51.559 --> 00:45:53.440
I did that the other day, and I went to

590
00:45:53.519 --> 00:45:56.480
bed and I was hungry. This is going to be

591
00:45:56.559 --> 00:45:58.800
really boring story because I've literally already told you what

592
00:45:59.159 --> 00:45:59.880
I'm going to tell you.

593
00:46:00.199 --> 00:46:04.760
Night I went to bed hungry. But I noticed.

594
00:46:06.400 --> 00:46:08.559
And I thought, well, no, I had something to eat

595
00:46:08.559 --> 00:46:11.000
a few hours ago. I don't need to eat anything.

596
00:46:11.079 --> 00:46:17.119
Now I'll be fine. And I'm laying there and my

597
00:46:17.199 --> 00:46:22.280
stomach gurgling, and I'm thinking I'm hungry. I didn't want

598
00:46:22.480 --> 00:46:26.039
like a meal, I really didn't. All I needed was

599
00:46:26.239 --> 00:46:29.719
just a couple of milethfuls of breakfast cereal, just to

600
00:46:29.800 --> 00:46:32.440
put some food in me. I just needed to a

601
00:46:32.559 --> 00:46:37.679
little bit of food, not much, you know, a slice

602
00:46:37.719 --> 00:46:45.719
of toast would have done it. But to going to bed,

603
00:46:46.559 --> 00:46:52.039
anything that causes discomfort physically, I find. I know I'm

604
00:46:52.119 --> 00:46:54.400
kind of going the other way because you ask me

605
00:46:54.519 --> 00:46:57.679
what is a good way, But I'm kind of saying

606
00:46:58.159 --> 00:47:04.000
to avoid those things, to prepare so you don't have

607
00:47:05.280 --> 00:47:12.840
physical discomfort, and maybe another way to help yourself relax

608
00:47:12.960 --> 00:47:17.519
before going to bed before going to sleep, maybe a

609
00:47:17.599 --> 00:47:19.880
bar or a shower, but.

610
00:47:21.400 --> 00:47:24.840
Slow, you know Russian about.

611
00:47:26.280 --> 00:47:31.559
And there's you know, if you look online, there's a

612
00:47:31.599 --> 00:47:36.840
lot of articles saying that maybe keep away from blue screens,

613
00:47:36.880 --> 00:47:37.519
which would be like.

614
00:47:37.559 --> 00:47:41.840
A laptop or a mobile phone or iPad.

615
00:47:44.079 --> 00:47:47.320
For maybe an hour before you go to sleep, because

616
00:47:47.360 --> 00:47:50.239
it stimulates part of your brain that maybe you don't

617
00:47:50.239 --> 00:47:54.000
want to be stimulated. But I don't think that wild.

618
00:47:54.039 --> 00:47:59.039
I mean, it's going to affect different people different ways.

619
00:48:00.719 --> 00:48:03.400
I've looked at computer screen gone to sleep straight away,

620
00:48:03.840 --> 00:48:06.639
so it doesn't really necessarily affect me in that way.

621
00:48:07.360 --> 00:48:10.440
I do get eyes strained, but that's just a separate thing.

622
00:48:12.039 --> 00:48:21.920
Sometimes if other things you could do. So if this

623
00:48:22.039 --> 00:48:26.960
something on your mind, maybe it's something you need to

624
00:48:27.079 --> 00:48:30.360
do tomorrow, and you lie down in bed and you're thinking, oh,

625
00:48:32.599 --> 00:48:37.280
I've got to do that thing, and you start thinking, oh,

626
00:48:37.320 --> 00:48:41.199
am I going to remember it, then it's worth just

627
00:48:41.280 --> 00:48:43.960
getting up and writing it down. Maybe have a little

628
00:48:46.760 --> 00:48:52.840
ped and pen, pen and pad or pencil and pad

629
00:48:53.000 --> 00:48:55.119
or something. You can just write it down.

630
00:48:55.320 --> 00:48:59.400
Just remember to have.

631
00:48:59.519 --> 00:49:01.159
A sex to me or whatever it was that you

632
00:49:01.239 --> 00:49:04.360
were trying to remember, and just stick that on a

633
00:49:04.400 --> 00:49:06.760
piece of paper so that when you wake up in

634
00:49:06.800 --> 00:49:08.840
the morning you can look at it and think, oh great,

635
00:49:11.519 --> 00:49:13.000
and then you haven't got to think about it.

636
00:49:23.320 --> 00:49:27.480
Other things. I suppose if there's something really really really

637
00:49:27.639 --> 00:49:28.440
really really.

638
00:49:28.320 --> 00:49:32.880
Important that you need to do, and you kind of

639
00:49:33.280 --> 00:49:40.920
know or you feel that if you don't get that accomplished, you're.

640
00:49:39.920 --> 00:49:40.559
Going to struggle.

641
00:49:42.400 --> 00:49:46.400
You might struggle to just fall asleep easily because you'll

642
00:49:46.440 --> 00:49:48.880
be concerned because you don't have to do it tomorrow

643
00:49:49.039 --> 00:49:49.480
and stuff.

644
00:49:50.440 --> 00:49:53.519
So maybe think ahead of time and get that done.

645
00:49:54.400 --> 00:49:57.480
Perhaps it's a phone call that you need to make

646
00:49:57.519 --> 00:50:01.639
before six pm. You can't do it after six you know,

647
00:50:01.760 --> 00:50:03.440
maybe it's a bill or something.

648
00:50:03.519 --> 00:50:05.119
You know, maybe sort of.

649
00:50:05.519 --> 00:50:12.000
Prioritize that thing, so that's one less item to be

650
00:50:12.199 --> 00:50:23.320
concerned about. Ultimately, I would say that I was talking

651
00:50:23.360 --> 00:50:25.280
to someone, I was talking to dog Walker.

652
00:50:25.039 --> 00:50:29.199
The other day about what I try and.

653
00:50:32.559 --> 00:50:35.840
Try and get across in these podcasts. I don't know

654
00:50:35.920 --> 00:50:41.000
if I'm successful at all in doing it. And I

655
00:50:41.159 --> 00:50:46.880
try and get across the idea of getting yourself in

656
00:50:47.000 --> 00:50:49.960
that state of mind where you don't care about anything,

657
00:50:52.440 --> 00:50:55.719
and I understand, I really do understand that that's a

658
00:50:55.840 --> 00:50:59.519
state that some people, just some people will refuse to

659
00:50:59.559 --> 00:51:03.239
get into, some people just because it is like no,

660
00:51:03.400 --> 00:51:08.639
because but I do care. Like it's not about not caring.

661
00:51:09.800 --> 00:51:13.559
It's about not caring for the period of time that

662
00:51:13.719 --> 00:51:23.519
you're relaxing and you know, there's arguments. I can kind

663
00:51:23.559 --> 00:51:26.480
of see different sides of it, like are easier said

664
00:51:26.519 --> 00:51:31.960
than done, and but that's kind of the goal. The goal,

665
00:51:32.320 --> 00:51:41.480
if you can, is to lie down. When your head

666
00:51:41.559 --> 00:51:49.360
touches the pillow, your body starts to relax. You notice

667
00:51:49.400 --> 00:51:54.119
how comfortable it feels to just I mean you might

668
00:51:54.199 --> 00:51:57.880
have literally just taken your clothes off. You might take

669
00:51:57.960 --> 00:51:59.920
your socks off and your baby socks on all day

670
00:52:00.559 --> 00:52:03.480
and it's it's nice to let the When the air

671
00:52:03.599 --> 00:52:06.920
touches the skin of your feet, it can feel quite nice,

672
00:52:07.119 --> 00:52:14.440
quite pleasant actually, and my socks love. Usually it's a

673
00:52:14.519 --> 00:52:16.360
socks that are happy when they get off my feet.

674
00:52:17.119 --> 00:52:20.760
They're like relieved to be away from my smelly feet.

675
00:52:20.840 --> 00:52:30.920
But when you lie down for me, also, the idea is.

676
00:52:33.079 --> 00:52:34.199
When you lie down.

677
00:52:34.639 --> 00:52:37.400
At nighttime or whenever you go to sleep, whatever time,

678
00:52:39.039 --> 00:52:44.760
is to not think about sleeping, to not be concerned

679
00:52:44.760 --> 00:52:47.239
about whether or not you go to sleep, or how

680
00:52:47.360 --> 00:52:51.400
quickly you go to sleep or anything like that, how long,

681
00:52:51.679 --> 00:52:54.360
how much sleep did you get yesterday, and how much

682
00:52:54.400 --> 00:52:59.880
sleep did you do you need tomorrow? And it's about

683
00:53:01.519 --> 00:53:06.920
noticing how relaxed you are. It's almost like a separate

684
00:53:07.079 --> 00:53:11.800
thing that you can enjoy watching television, you can enjoy

685
00:53:11.920 --> 00:53:15.880
eating your breakfast. You can enjoy different parts of the

686
00:53:16.000 --> 00:53:19.719
day when you can enjoy maybe even look forward to

687
00:53:19.840 --> 00:53:24.599
doing so. I look forward to having my breakfast. But

688
00:53:24.760 --> 00:53:32.000
even now it's only half past four, and I think

689
00:53:32.039 --> 00:53:35.320
about tomorrow morning at four o'clock or five o'clock every

690
00:53:35.360 --> 00:53:39.280
time I wake up, sitting here having my ready break

691
00:53:39.760 --> 00:53:44.119
cup of tea, watching the TV or whatever's on, you know,

692
00:53:44.239 --> 00:53:49.800
maybe watching YouTube or watching a TV show, and I

693
00:53:50.039 --> 00:53:50.199
like that.

694
00:53:52.159 --> 00:53:52.920
I look forward to it.

695
00:53:52.960 --> 00:53:56.639
It's a nice moment. Yeah, last about an hour, hour

696
00:53:56.679 --> 00:54:00.239
and a half. Maybe it's my little time finished me

697
00:54:00.360 --> 00:54:02.840
still in bed. It's my little time on my own

698
00:54:03.639 --> 00:54:06.199
where I can just I got the TV down really

699
00:54:06.320 --> 00:54:08.559
low so no one else, hopefully.

700
00:54:08.280 --> 00:54:11.760
Vinnie can't hear it. He probably can.

701
00:54:12.000 --> 00:54:19.360
But and that period of time, it's nice. It's something

702
00:54:19.400 --> 00:54:26.920
I look forward to. It's very relaxing, and I don't

703
00:54:27.039 --> 00:54:32.079
feel pressured to do anything. No, I don't have to

704
00:54:32.199 --> 00:54:35.159
talk to anyone, don't have to do anything. I don't

705
00:54:35.239 --> 00:54:38.920
have to watch television, you know, I don't have to

706
00:54:39.000 --> 00:54:43.960
eat the breakfast. I choose to eat the breakfast, so everything's.

707
00:54:43.639 --> 00:54:44.320
Just a choice.

708
00:54:45.760 --> 00:54:48.559
But it's very relaxing and I quite look forward to it.

709
00:54:48.920 --> 00:54:50.559
I mean, I'm not like thinking, I'm not on the

710
00:54:50.639 --> 00:54:53.239
edge of my seat thinking, oh, I wish I could

711
00:54:53.280 --> 00:54:55.159
get this recording done and go to bed early so

712
00:54:55.239 --> 00:54:57.920
I can wake up. It's not like it's Christmas morning

713
00:54:58.280 --> 00:55:02.760
every morning. Not quite that ridiculous. But you know, I'm

714
00:55:02.800 --> 00:55:11.119
not jumping out jumping out of bed like American guy.

715
00:55:11.559 --> 00:55:17.480
American American guy is an American dad. You know, he

716
00:55:17.559 --> 00:55:20.840
jumps out a low good morning.

717
00:55:21.440 --> 00:55:21.920
You know, no.

718
00:55:22.079 --> 00:55:30.480
Cartwheels, no sparkles. I just get out of bed. So

719
00:55:30.599 --> 00:55:33.639
that's like a separate thing. And to me, going to

720
00:55:33.760 --> 00:55:39.440
bed is almost and also a separate thing. I lie

721
00:55:39.519 --> 00:55:42.239
down on the bed, put you know, let my head

722
00:55:42.360 --> 00:55:47.440
rest on a pillow. Initially I lie on my back.

723
00:55:48.039 --> 00:55:50.480
I don't go to sleep on my back because I

724
00:55:50.599 --> 00:55:52.840
have a sleep on my side, but I lie on

725
00:55:52.880 --> 00:55:56.719
my back to start with. And just notice how relaxed

726
00:55:56.800 --> 00:56:00.119
my body feels, especially in my back.

727
00:56:00.119 --> 00:56:00.760
My lower back.

728
00:56:02.480 --> 00:56:09.639
Just notice how my legs relax, my buttocks, my shoulders,

729
00:56:10.960 --> 00:56:20.960
my neck as my head's resting on a pillow, and

730
00:56:21.039 --> 00:56:27.239
I'm not concerned about falling asleep. I couldn't care at

731
00:56:27.280 --> 00:56:35.320
all about falling asleep because even though technically that's why

732
00:56:35.320 --> 00:56:38.960
I've gone to bed for me, I've gone to bed

733
00:56:39.039 --> 00:56:39.599
to relax.

734
00:56:42.840 --> 00:56:44.400
I guess it's a different mindset.

735
00:56:45.719 --> 00:56:51.960
I've not gone to bed expecting anything other than to relax.

736
00:56:54.920 --> 00:56:57.400
I'm not I expect to fall asleep because I do

737
00:56:57.559 --> 00:57:01.440
every single every much every night of my life. I

738
00:57:01.480 --> 00:57:07.719
guess part from when I slept during the day. But

739
00:57:07.800 --> 00:57:13.880
it's not something I am concerned with. It's not something

740
00:57:13.960 --> 00:57:17.880
I care about. And that brings you back to the

741
00:57:18.000 --> 00:57:22.679
whole idea of not caring. Is this is way too

742
00:57:22.800 --> 00:57:25.159
more sity, this is weird, this is too serious for

743
00:57:25.199 --> 00:57:28.119
my Q and a Friday and I start talking about

744
00:57:28.320 --> 00:57:33.559
penguins again in a minute. But to get to that

745
00:57:33.719 --> 00:57:37.480
mindset of not caring about anything, not in a selfish way,

746
00:57:38.960 --> 00:57:42.760
you know, is it completely different from being selfish because

747
00:57:42.800 --> 00:57:45.880
you don't even care about yourself. You literally don't care

748
00:57:45.920 --> 00:57:48.960
about anything. You let it all fall on the floor.

749
00:57:50.840 --> 00:57:53.159
It's almost like you just step out of your own skin,

750
00:57:54.000 --> 00:57:56.280
leave it on the floor, leave it in the other room.

751
00:57:57.840 --> 00:57:58.519
You go to bed.

752
00:58:00.440 --> 00:58:05.079
It's your little place, your little pod, your little safe space.

753
00:58:05.719 --> 00:58:11.440
Is safe bubble, whatever you want to call it, where

754
00:58:11.440 --> 00:58:20.920
you can just relax, enjoy feeling relaxed, and if you've

755
00:58:20.920 --> 00:58:23.920
got your eyes closed, which unless you enjoy looking at

756
00:58:23.960 --> 00:58:29.280
the ceiling, which I mean sometimes I do. I've got

757
00:58:29.400 --> 00:58:33.239
quite a thing about ceilings, but generally I don't look

758
00:58:33.280 --> 00:58:35.480
at the ceiling, especially if it's dark you can't see

759
00:58:35.480 --> 00:58:41.559
the ceiling. I've got itchy bomb okay, butter grubther.

760
00:58:46.599 --> 00:58:56.119
You can just enjoy feeling relaxed, and that's it.

761
00:58:56.599 --> 00:59:04.559
There's nothing that you need to do. And when you

762
00:59:04.679 --> 00:59:09.239
don't care about anything for that period of time, you

763
00:59:09.400 --> 00:59:09.960
just let it go.

764
00:59:11.079 --> 00:59:11.519
And I do.

765
00:59:11.880 --> 00:59:15.719
I can see different perspectives and I can almost hear

766
00:59:15.800 --> 00:59:21.000
in my brain someone saying, yeah, but this person's unwell, of.

767
00:59:21.079 --> 00:59:21.719
Course I care.

768
00:59:21.760 --> 00:59:26.360
I'm thinking about them. And that's the thing. You have

769
00:59:26.519 --> 00:59:31.280
to stop caring about everything. It doesn't mean you don't care. Okay,

770
00:59:33.480 --> 00:59:38.159
I don't know if this concept is even comprehensible to me.

771
00:59:38.360 --> 00:59:38.800
I don't know.

772
00:59:38.960 --> 00:59:45.239
But you take a break from caring doesn't mean you

773
00:59:45.320 --> 00:59:48.519
don't care. Of course, you don't stop loving the people

774
00:59:48.639 --> 00:59:55.320
you love, but you take a break from thinking about them.

775
00:59:55.920 --> 01:00:01.400
You take a break from even almost like they don't exist.

776
01:00:02.039 --> 01:00:08.159
Nothing exists. Everything stops for a while, just for that

777
01:00:08.400 --> 01:00:21.360
short period that you're relaxing, and then you fall asleep

778
01:00:25.239 --> 01:00:28.159
and you don't have control over what you think about

779
01:00:28.199 --> 01:00:32.039
when you're asleep. I'm not saying that you're controlling what

780
01:00:32.159 --> 01:00:35.480
you think about when you're lying in bed, but you're

781
01:00:35.599 --> 01:00:38.480
kind of taking a bit of control in the sense

782
01:00:38.559 --> 01:00:42.960
of letting go. And that is what I mean when

783
01:00:43.000 --> 01:00:52.039
I say let go, like literally drop everything. And I

784
01:00:52.199 --> 01:00:54.559
have literally done that in the past myself in the

785
01:00:54.920 --> 01:00:58.679
you know, where I've walked away from every single thing,

786
01:00:59.280 --> 01:01:04.559
every aspect of my life, where I lived, where I worked, friends, everything.

787
01:01:06.320 --> 01:01:09.079
I'm not recommending it, but you know, there's been times

788
01:01:09.119 --> 01:01:13.159
when I've had to do that and there is a relief.

789
01:01:15.840 --> 01:01:18.639
The problem with doing that is it's hard to come

790
01:01:18.719 --> 01:01:20.920
back to, you know, from that. If you do that

791
01:01:21.039 --> 01:01:26.480
in life, you drop every single thing in life. But

792
01:01:26.599 --> 01:01:30.800
when you're in bed, you can do it for a

793
01:01:30.920 --> 01:01:31.559
period of time.

794
01:01:33.679 --> 01:01:33.760
Now.

795
01:01:33.760 --> 01:01:36.000
I understand some people might have to have the phone

796
01:01:36.039 --> 01:01:41.920
on because I loved one might need their help or whatever,

797
01:01:46.679 --> 01:01:52.559
but that's dealt with when it happens. You're not planning

798
01:01:52.599 --> 01:01:58.280
a head, not even one minute, not even five seconds ahead.

799
01:01:59.039 --> 01:02:05.840
There's no planning, there's no yesterday, no tomorrow, not even

800
01:02:05.880 --> 01:02:09.960
any it's not even a now. It's just almost nothing.

801
01:02:12.000 --> 01:02:15.199
The peace, calmness.

802
01:02:22.840 --> 01:02:28.199
H And when you feel it, that.

803
01:02:31.599 --> 01:02:39.199
That slowness in your mind where there's just nothing going on,

804
01:02:40.400 --> 01:02:50.480
there's nothing happening, there's there's no need for any kind

805
01:02:50.599 --> 01:02:59.960
of stimulation or any type of dialogue to be occurring. Hmm,

806
01:03:04.079 --> 01:03:06.480
because you've given yourself permission.

807
01:03:07.519 --> 01:03:07.920
To just.

808
01:03:09.960 --> 01:03:23.400
Let go and not care for a while. I guess

809
01:03:23.519 --> 01:03:26.960
some would say it's kind of like a like an emptiness,

810
01:03:27.960 --> 01:03:37.880
a peacefulness, calmness, potentially healing. Your body relaxes even more,

811
01:03:38.599 --> 01:03:45.440
your mind not only slows down, but maybe also maybe

812
01:03:45.480 --> 01:03:57.000
it comes to a practical standstill. I kind of think

813
01:03:57.039 --> 01:04:00.400
I should have done this question at the end because

814
01:04:00.400 --> 01:04:04.679
I'm going to go back to being silly again. Sorry,

815
01:04:05.639 --> 01:04:09.199
but yeah, that's what I'm thinking. Thank you for saying

816
01:04:09.199 --> 01:04:11.639
I've got a beautiful voice. It's quite weird because when

817
01:04:11.920 --> 01:04:14.960
I was reading it out, I was noticing my voice

818
01:04:15.119 --> 01:04:18.960
particularly croaky today, particularly croaky.

819
01:04:23.079 --> 01:04:25.280
What is a good way to do stress in conjunction?

820
01:04:26.360 --> 01:04:32.840
And I could have gone silly with the answer for

821
01:04:32.920 --> 01:04:35.920
that question, but I thought i'd be give a serious

822
01:04:36.000 --> 01:04:41.559
answer because ultimately, that is what I'm trying to do.

823
01:04:42.840 --> 01:04:46.480
I am trying to I know, I'm mess about and

824
01:04:47.559 --> 01:04:52.400
hopefully it's entertaining and it's I can be company maybe

825
01:04:53.840 --> 01:05:04.880
to you, like a a familiar voice, perhaps even you know, But.

826
01:05:08.039 --> 01:05:08.960
I am also.

827
01:05:10.960 --> 01:05:14.039
Aiming to help. I mean that that in itself can

828
01:05:14.119 --> 01:05:23.119
be helpful, but I am aiming to that the recordings

829
01:05:23.159 --> 01:05:28.840
are useful, you know. So yeah, so thanks, thanks Hope

830
01:05:29.000 --> 01:05:34.760
and Temmy for those two questions, and thanks for saying it.

831
01:05:34.800 --> 01:05:43.639
I've got a beautiful voice. Ing asks me, how do

832
01:05:43.719 --> 01:05:44.320
you met? Oh?

833
01:05:44.400 --> 01:05:46.199
Yeah, by the way, the dog walker I was talking

834
01:05:46.280 --> 01:05:49.920
to just looked at me blankly. What Because I was

835
01:05:50.000 --> 01:05:53.119
talking about how I'm just trying to help people, to

836
01:05:54.239 --> 01:05:57.320
try to explain to just let go and to not

837
01:05:57.519 --> 01:06:02.400
care about anything, and she said, oh, I only ask

838
01:06:02.480 --> 01:06:05.440
you if you think it's going to rain. So I

839
01:06:05.519 --> 01:06:10.480
think it flumes her a little bit every time I

840
01:06:10.519 --> 01:06:14.440
see it. Now she runs the opposite direction, but that's

841
01:06:14.519 --> 01:06:21.480
nothing new. Ing asks me, how do you manage to

842
01:06:21.599 --> 01:06:29.079
put a podcast episode online every day? Does this sometimes

843
01:06:29.360 --> 01:06:30.119
stress you out?

844
01:06:31.280 --> 01:06:31.800
Do you ever?

845
01:06:32.320 --> 01:06:32.519
Wow?

846
01:06:32.840 --> 01:06:33.360
Very croaky?

847
01:06:33.599 --> 01:06:36.039
I think it's the heat, it's croaking me. Let's have

848
01:06:36.039 --> 01:06:49.920
a little bit of water, hm, nice, a nice little

849
01:06:49.960 --> 01:06:58.679
sip of warm water from my plastic bottle. Does this

850
01:06:58.840 --> 01:07:02.239
sometimes stress you out? Do you ever find it difficult

851
01:07:02.320 --> 01:07:12.239
to motivate yourself? Yeah, If I'm not motivated, I just

852
01:07:12.320 --> 01:07:20.719
don't do one. Generally, I've realized over the years that

853
01:07:20.880 --> 01:07:25.960
there's no point trying to force it, because if I'm

854
01:07:26.039 --> 01:07:30.440
in the role mood, then there's I might as well

855
01:07:30.480 --> 01:07:33.760
just not make a recording. Because I've on a few,

856
01:07:33.920 --> 01:07:37.000
not many times, but a few occasions, I've made recordings

857
01:07:37.079 --> 01:07:41.880
and I've had to abandon them halfway through or just.

858
01:07:42.000 --> 01:07:42.760
Delete them.

859
01:07:44.360 --> 01:07:49.960
Because I've not been in the correct space, you know, mindset.

860
01:07:55.760 --> 01:07:59.239
I don't, I mean really, as far as.

861
01:08:02.840 --> 01:08:06.480
It doesn't stress me out making recordings because I know

862
01:08:06.559 --> 01:08:10.679
I don't have to, you know, I don't have to

863
01:08:10.760 --> 01:08:13.719
do this that no one's I'm not being forced and

864
01:08:13.840 --> 01:08:14.880
not being paid to do it.

865
01:08:14.960 --> 01:08:17.199
I don't have to. There's no.

866
01:08:19.199 --> 01:08:25.720
I don't feel really under pressure, not really. I mean,

867
01:08:26.000 --> 01:08:28.600
the only pressure I'm ever under is the pressure.

868
01:08:28.319 --> 01:08:29.000
I put myself.

869
01:08:30.279 --> 01:08:37.119
And I probably made more recordings this year than I

870
01:08:37.319 --> 01:08:42.159
have in any other year. I mean at this point

871
01:08:42.199 --> 01:08:45.319
in the year. I mean, so what we six months in?

872
01:08:45.600 --> 01:08:50.840
Nearly seven months in? This was it a twentieth of June? No,

873
01:08:51.840 --> 01:08:52.560
six months in?

874
01:08:52.800 --> 01:08:54.239
Sorry, six months into the.

875
01:08:54.279 --> 01:09:04.000
Year, nearly another ten days. And I don't think I've

876
01:09:04.039 --> 01:09:07.239
ever done as many recordings as this in six months before.

877
01:09:10.159 --> 01:09:12.079
What you want me to account? How many have done?

878
01:09:12.439 --> 01:09:20.000
Really? I could just hear. I could hear the people screaming, no, no,

879
01:09:20.199 --> 01:09:26.880
we don't need you to count them. No, I don't

880
01:09:26.880 --> 01:09:30.600
mean have a look, I've done quite. I'm sure I didn't.

881
01:09:30.640 --> 01:09:34.239
I count them the other day? Didn't I count how

882
01:09:34.279 --> 01:09:35.920
many have done it? It won't take long, don't I

883
01:09:37.239 --> 01:09:40.520
Because although it's a fair amount, it's still not going

884
01:09:40.600 --> 01:09:46.479
to be a huge amount, probably twenty or thirty maybe more.

885
01:09:51.800 --> 01:09:53.760
There must be an easier way of doing it than this.

886
01:09:55.880 --> 01:09:59.319
I'm just scrolling down, still in April, in March, now,

887
01:10:01.479 --> 01:10:09.119
still in March. So I don't really feel stressed to

888
01:10:10.239 --> 01:10:17.119
make new recordings. I think if anything is beneficial for

889
01:10:17.279 --> 01:10:17.800
me to do.

890
01:10:17.920 --> 01:10:19.039
It because.

891
01:10:21.840 --> 01:10:24.800
Without being dramatic, I don't have anything else.

892
01:10:25.600 --> 01:10:26.439
This is all I have.

893
01:10:27.880 --> 01:10:31.960
This is other than taking Vinny for I want to

894
01:10:31.960 --> 01:10:33.560
say the word, but taking him out.

895
01:10:35.399 --> 01:10:36.199
Because I have to.

896
01:10:38.079 --> 01:10:43.920
There is nothing else that I really am kind of

897
01:10:45.239 --> 01:10:48.600
having to do. Part of the basic stuff like you know,

898
01:10:48.760 --> 01:10:54.039
buying food and paying bills, all right, since the first

899
01:10:54.079 --> 01:10:59.840
of January one two three, I mean, actually we'll start

900
01:11:00.600 --> 01:11:01.720
the first of January.

901
01:11:03.319 --> 01:11:05.439
So this is to let me boil you to sleep.

902
01:11:09.520 --> 01:11:14.039
One thousand, two hundred and sixty one, so one thousand,

903
01:11:14.119 --> 01:11:25.760
two hundred and sixty one, and this one is one thousand,

904
01:11:26.039 --> 01:11:32.359
three hundred and eighty, so one hundred one thousand. What

905
01:11:33.960 --> 01:11:40.000
one thousand, two hundred and sixty one, one thousand, three

906
01:11:40.159 --> 01:11:48.560
hundred and sixty one, so it's one hundred and nineteen

907
01:11:50.359 --> 01:11:52.880
including this one, so down one hundred and nineteen.

908
01:11:53.119 --> 01:11:55.680
Let me boil you to sleep in.

909
01:11:58.159 --> 01:12:02.079
Well nearly six months, so it's three six, nine twenty,

910
01:12:03.520 --> 01:12:05.760
so it's pretty much every day for four months and

911
01:12:05.880 --> 01:12:07.439
then two months or none.

912
01:12:08.039 --> 01:12:10.319
Kind of it's I suppose it's.

913
01:12:11.960 --> 01:12:15.640
Two two, four, six, eight, ten twelve.

914
01:12:20.119 --> 01:12:21.279
Yes, I suppose it's.

915
01:12:22.720 --> 01:12:28.000
It's five ten fifteen, So twenty a week, twenty a

916
01:12:28.119 --> 01:12:32.920
month roughly for the let me boy to sleeps, which

917
01:12:33.000 --> 01:12:35.640
is I've got a Monday to Friday every week of

918
01:12:35.720 --> 01:12:36.800
the year so far.

919
01:12:37.119 --> 01:12:41.399
Kind of so let's have a look at all the others.

920
01:12:41.479 --> 01:12:45.359
So it was one, but this is all the other stuff.

921
01:12:45.359 --> 01:13:07.560
I let me boy your pain away, and blah blah one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven, twelve, thirteen, fourteen, fifteen, sixteen, seventeen, eighteen, nineteen, twenty,

922
01:13:08.079 --> 01:13:12.159
twenty one, twenty two, twenty three, twenty four, twenty five,

923
01:13:12.720 --> 01:13:17.880
twenty fifth, twenty seven, twenty eight, twenty nine, thirty, thirty one,

924
01:13:18.039 --> 01:13:22.000
thirty two, thirty three, thirty four, thirty five, thirty six,

925
01:13:22.439 --> 01:13:27.680
thirty seven, thirty eight, thirty nine, forty forty one, forty two,

926
01:13:28.000 --> 01:13:32.760
forty three, forty four, forty five, forty six, forty seven,

927
01:13:33.159 --> 01:13:39.520
forty eight, forty nine, fifty fifty one, fifty two, fifty three.

928
01:13:39.760 --> 01:13:41.359
This is roughly, by the way I think I might

929
01:13:41.439 --> 01:13:46.680
skim the couple fifty four, fifty five, fifty six, fifty seven,

930
01:13:47.399 --> 01:13:51.479
fifty eight, fifty nine, sixty sixty one.

931
01:13:51.640 --> 01:13:54.119
Sixty two, sixty three, sixty four.

932
01:13:54.920 --> 01:14:00.239
Sixty five, sixty six, sixty seven, sixty eight, sixty nine seven, twenty,

933
01:14:00.439 --> 01:14:05.119
seventy one, seventy two up to March now, seventy three,

934
01:14:05.439 --> 01:14:10.159
seventy four, seventy five, seventy six, seventy seven, seventy eight,

935
01:14:10.359 --> 01:14:15.840
seventy nine, eighty eighty one, eighty two, eighty three, eighty four,

936
01:14:16.159 --> 01:14:21.600
eighty five, eighty six, eighty seven, eighty eight, eighty nine,

937
01:14:21.760 --> 01:14:45.479
one hundred, one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven, twelve, thirteen, fourteen, fifteen, sixteen, fifteen, sorry, sixteen, seventeen, eighteen, nineteen, twenty,

938
01:14:46.159 --> 01:14:50.279
twenty one, twenty two, twenty three, twenty four, twenty five,

939
01:14:50.520 --> 01:14:55.960
twenty six, twenty seven, twenty eight, twenty nine, thirty, thirty one,

940
01:14:56.760 --> 01:15:04.279
thirty two, thirty three, thirty four, thirty five, thirty six,

941
01:15:04.680 --> 01:15:09.840
thirty seven, thirty eight, thirty nine, forty, forty one, forty two,

942
01:15:10.720 --> 01:15:14.359
forty three, forty four, forty five, forty six, forty seven,

943
01:15:14.520 --> 01:15:20.159
forty eight, forty nine, fifty fifty one, fifty two, fifty three,

944
01:15:20.439 --> 01:15:29.279
fifty four, fifty five, fifty six, fifty seven, fifty eight,

945
01:15:30.920 --> 01:15:36.600
fifty nine, sixty, sixty one, sixty two, sixty three, sixty four,

946
01:15:36.800 --> 01:15:42.560
sixty five, sixty six, sixty seven, sixty eight, sixty nine, seventy,

947
01:15:43.600 --> 01:15:48.439
seventy one, seventy two, seventy three, seventy four, seventy five,

948
01:15:48.600 --> 01:15:55.000
seventy six, seventy seven, seventy eight, seventy nine, eighty eighty one,

949
01:15:55.279 --> 01:16:00.279
eighty two, eighty three, eighty four, eighty five, eighty six,

950
01:16:00.439 --> 01:16:06.600
eighty seven, eighty eight, eighty nine, ninety, ninety one, ninety two,

951
01:16:06.920 --> 01:16:12.880
ninety three, ninety four, ninety five, ninety six, ninety seven,

952
01:16:13.039 --> 01:16:19.039
ninety eight, ninety nine, two hundred, two hundred and one,

953
01:16:19.479 --> 01:16:23.119
two hundred and two, two hundred three, two hundred four,

954
01:16:23.399 --> 01:16:26.479
two hundred and five, two hundred and six, two hundred seven,

955
01:16:26.520 --> 01:16:31.319
two hundred eight, two hundred and nine, two hundred and ten.

956
01:16:32.199 --> 01:16:35.279
So this is roughly.

957
01:16:35.560 --> 01:16:38.439
I might have got it wrong, I might have missed

958
01:16:38.439 --> 01:16:40.720
a couple, might have valued a couple by accident. Because

959
01:16:40.760 --> 01:16:44.960
the lot so roughly about two hundred and ten recordings

960
01:16:46.000 --> 01:16:49.159
so far this year, which is.

961
01:16:53.279 --> 01:16:53.479
Yeah.

962
01:16:53.680 --> 01:16:57.720
I mean, if I do the same four hundred and

963
01:16:57.800 --> 01:17:00.640
fifty I've never done. I've never made four hundred and

964
01:17:00.680 --> 01:17:03.560
fifty recordings in a year before, and I don't know

965
01:17:03.560 --> 01:17:07.279
if I've ever made two hundred and ten in less

966
01:17:07.359 --> 01:17:08.119
than six months.

967
01:17:10.279 --> 01:17:11.039
What's my point?

968
01:17:11.199 --> 01:17:16.399
I don't know, I really don't know. I'm not sure.

969
01:17:17.920 --> 01:17:20.479
I thought I knew what it was, but I don't

970
01:17:20.560 --> 01:17:26.520
know now. Oh BlimE me I've had so many messages,

971
01:17:31.079 --> 01:17:32.199
what's going on here?

972
01:17:33.920 --> 01:17:37.600
Junk mail? I get so much junk mail, it's ridiculous.

973
01:17:39.199 --> 01:17:44.840
Oh well, so, yeah, how do.

974
01:17:44.920 --> 01:17:47.920
I manage to put a podcast episode online every day?

975
01:17:54.239 --> 01:17:56.880
I don't know, really, I just because I don't. That's

976
01:17:56.920 --> 01:18:03.319
the thing I have been lately. However, I do have

977
01:18:03.800 --> 01:18:11.199
periods when I don't make any recordings. There have been

978
01:18:11.319 --> 01:18:15.000
times when I've not made recordings for weeks in the past,

979
01:18:15.119 --> 01:18:20.640
even months. I've not gone months for a long time.

980
01:18:23.920 --> 01:18:26.279
In fact, I would say I probably haven't gone months

981
01:18:28.039 --> 01:18:34.840
probably in the last eight years. I can't remember the

982
01:18:34.920 --> 01:18:38.479
last time I went a few weeks without making a recording.

983
01:18:39.680 --> 01:18:43.399
It's got to be a long time ago. I can't

984
01:18:43.399 --> 01:18:46.079
even remember the last time when a whole week I

985
01:18:46.199 --> 01:18:51.359
might have done. I think I did when I lost Andre,

986
01:18:52.359 --> 01:18:55.279
I had a week or two where I didn't make

987
01:18:55.279 --> 01:19:00.920
any recordings, But also when I lost Luke as well,

988
01:19:01.079 --> 01:19:05.399
my friend Luke, so I probably had. I had a

989
01:19:05.479 --> 01:19:14.399
time when I couldn't make recordings then as well. Yeah,

990
01:19:16.880 --> 01:19:20.960
so the thing is in the past. If we go back,

991
01:19:21.199 --> 01:19:25.399
like before I moved here ten years ago, even though

992
01:19:25.439 --> 01:19:32.359
I'd been doing it for nine years, I wasn't doing

993
01:19:32.479 --> 01:19:35.319
recordings every day, and it was times when I was,

994
01:19:38.279 --> 01:19:41.239
but it was more kind of whenever I felt like

995
01:19:41.399 --> 01:19:44.319
it and I was working, so I didn't have always

996
01:19:44.399 --> 01:19:47.199
have the energy to do it all the time, or

997
01:19:47.239 --> 01:19:49.640
where I was living was too noisy, you know, So

998
01:19:50.479 --> 01:19:54.319
I wasn't as regular as I have been.

999
01:19:55.159 --> 01:19:56.039
In the last.

1000
01:20:00.319 --> 01:20:12.079
Ice Cream Van, I don't know if you can hear

1001
01:20:12.119 --> 01:20:15.319
the background sound, I'm sure the music is getting allouder.

1002
01:20:16.640 --> 01:20:22.399
Ice Cream Van, And how do I'm yeah, I've been.

1003
01:20:22.640 --> 01:20:26.119
I'm quite pleased with how I've been able to post

1004
01:20:26.199 --> 01:20:29.960
a recording every day, nearly every day, and well more

1005
01:20:30.039 --> 01:20:30.960
than more than.

1006
01:20:30.880 --> 01:20:31.880
One a day recently.

1007
01:20:32.640 --> 01:20:33.199
But this is.

1008
01:20:36.560 --> 01:20:44.640
I've never sustained making multiple recordings per day for any

1009
01:20:44.720 --> 01:20:48.920
amount length of time. I mean, this is okay. This

1010
01:20:49.079 --> 01:20:52.119
is the third recording today. I did four yesterday.

1011
01:20:55.960 --> 01:20:58.239
There's a chance I might make another one.

1012
01:20:58.239 --> 01:21:01.680
Later on before I go to bed, but probably not.

1013
01:21:01.880 --> 01:21:03.000
I don't know, it depends.

1014
01:21:03.920 --> 01:21:04.399
I might do.

1015
01:21:07.000 --> 01:21:09.880
Sometimes it's a case of I get a little bit

1016
01:21:09.880 --> 01:21:17.520
of inspiration for with the podcast. Let's sort of look

1017
01:21:17.720 --> 01:21:20.960
what I caught it called. I should know the name

1018
01:21:21.039 --> 01:21:28.399
of my podcast, shouldn't I really Relaxation for Stress and

1019
01:21:28.479 --> 01:21:36.159
panic attacks that podcast, and I've got how many different episodes,

1020
01:21:37.199 --> 01:21:43.000
two hundred and forty three different episodes. That one is

1021
01:21:43.760 --> 01:21:47.199
some of the recordings are short, but it's just an

1022
01:21:47.279 --> 01:21:49.800
idea I've had, Like I had an idea of using

1023
01:21:49.840 --> 01:21:55.680
a flamethrower on a an ice sculpture of the words

1024
01:21:55.880 --> 01:22:03.359
stress and melting it and then that turn into a

1025
01:22:03.520 --> 01:22:08.279
biscuit shaped stress and a dog eating it and then

1026
01:22:08.319 --> 01:22:13.079
the stress being pooed out. I don't know why I

1027
01:22:13.079 --> 01:22:15.520
always seem to go that direction, but I had another

1028
01:22:15.560 --> 01:22:19.600
one called today called blowing bubbles, and that's based upon

1029
01:22:19.800 --> 01:22:21.760
the whole idea of.

1030
01:22:23.880 --> 01:22:25.760
Especially for kids really, to be honest, but.

1031
01:22:28.800 --> 01:22:31.600
By blowing out, you know, if you blow through a tube,

1032
01:22:32.359 --> 01:22:36.680
blowing the bubble, that is a way to calm the

1033
01:22:36.760 --> 01:22:39.520
breathing without focusing on the breathing.

1034
01:22:41.000 --> 01:22:43.000
And it's fun, especially for a kid.

1035
01:22:43.399 --> 01:22:46.000
It's fun for I think I would argue that blowing

1036
01:22:46.039 --> 01:22:48.359
bubbles can potentially be fun for anyone.

1037
01:22:51.640 --> 01:23:01.079
And I talked about my own experiences and how even though.

1038
01:23:02.800 --> 01:23:08.600
Controling breathing is almost if you look at any any book,

1039
01:23:10.760 --> 01:23:18.279
whether it's stress relief or anxiety any or recordings, most

1040
01:23:18.319 --> 01:23:22.199
of them seem to focus on breathing techniques, even hypnosis

1041
01:23:22.319 --> 01:23:25.800
recordings focusing on breathing techniques to start with.

1042
01:23:29.239 --> 01:23:30.079
I don't do that.

1043
01:23:31.840 --> 01:23:46.279
Generally because for me, it's about relaxing but kind of

1044
01:23:46.359 --> 01:23:51.079
going slow with it. And what I noticed is when

1045
01:23:51.359 --> 01:23:56.399
the more you relax, the slower you're breathing becomes naturally

1046
01:23:57.359 --> 01:24:02.279
and becomes deeper as well. It's just a natural process.

1047
01:24:06.079 --> 01:24:10.159
And I also realized in my own experience with anxiety

1048
01:24:10.319 --> 01:24:13.760
and panic attacks and stuff like that, the last thing

1049
01:24:13.840 --> 01:24:15.720
in the world I wanted to do was focus on

1050
01:24:15.840 --> 01:24:20.439
my breathing. I was too self conscious of it at

1051
01:24:20.479 --> 01:24:27.439
that time. Anyway, I needed a distraction from that. So,

1052
01:24:27.800 --> 01:24:32.680
you know, breathing out maybe due to hyperventilation. Breathing out

1053
01:24:32.800 --> 01:24:35.600
is obviously it's a good thing, isn't it, Because you're breathing.

1054
01:24:35.359 --> 01:24:35.920
In too much.

1055
01:24:37.640 --> 01:24:41.439
If you start blowing bubbles breathing, or you could technically

1056
01:24:41.560 --> 01:24:43.920
blow up some ballooms, that's another thing you could do,

1057
01:24:44.079 --> 01:24:48.319
I guess, but I probably choose to blow bubbles and

1058
01:24:48.399 --> 01:24:49.199
blow out balloons.

1059
01:24:50.079 --> 01:24:50.840
It's more fun.

1060
01:24:51.920 --> 01:24:53.680
I mean, technically, you've got the balloons at the end

1061
01:24:53.720 --> 01:24:55.920
of it, so you've got somebody to show for it

1062
01:24:56.239 --> 01:25:00.880
because with the bubbles, they do pop, don't they But

1063
01:25:02.840 --> 01:25:07.000
it's just some more natural, especially probably for children, it's

1064
01:25:07.039 --> 01:25:10.000
a more natural way of getting them to breathe out

1065
01:25:10.119 --> 01:25:15.479
more than they're breathing in. That then evens out the breathing.

1066
01:25:15.840 --> 01:25:18.000
And this is based in science as well, because I

1067
01:25:18.079 --> 01:25:20.479
did a little bit of research for this, So this

1068
01:25:20.640 --> 01:25:23.479
isn't just like something that I just thought up and

1069
01:25:23.600 --> 01:25:27.920
thought to myself. But it gave me an idea to

1070
01:25:28.000 --> 01:25:32.520
do a recording on it. And it's those kind of

1071
01:25:32.600 --> 01:25:41.319
moments that I really enjoy when I I just have

1072
01:25:41.439 --> 01:25:46.640
an idea and I think, oh, either ice kettle, anger

1073
01:25:46.720 --> 01:25:55.720
release or ways to disrupt worrying. And I mean I

1074
01:25:55.840 --> 01:26:04.039
started doing these years ago. I'm just looking through it,

1075
01:26:05.000 --> 01:26:07.800
and I was doing it for a while. I was

1076
01:26:07.880 --> 01:26:11.880
doing them every day. So I don't even have the

1077
01:26:11.960 --> 01:26:15.840
date when I first started, but it was I didn't

1078
01:26:15.880 --> 01:26:19.359
give the names for the first thirty five I think

1079
01:26:19.600 --> 01:26:30.199
thirty six, forty okay, no, fifty nine, seventy.

1080
01:26:30.680 --> 01:26:31.119
I didn't it.

1081
01:26:31.479 --> 01:26:33.399
I didn't have I didn't have any kind of tied

1082
01:26:33.439 --> 01:26:40.199
to all. Yeah, I did started. I started doing it, okay,

1083
01:26:40.439 --> 01:26:51.520
number seventy Safe Space Model Plane sounds, so it's different ones.

1084
01:26:51.600 --> 01:26:58.000
I had smiley mirror meaning and purpose, web page ball

1085
01:26:58.119 --> 01:27:01.520
or sock silly song that was a good one.

1086
01:27:03.119 --> 01:27:05.000
To check that one out. It's very silly.

1087
01:27:07.439 --> 01:27:09.560
Bath Floater that's another good one.

1088
01:27:09.600 --> 01:27:10.960
I think. I think that was quite funny.

1089
01:27:11.720 --> 01:27:15.199
So it's just and these are short. They're like fifteen

1090
01:27:15.239 --> 01:27:17.039
minutes long some of them. Some of them are like

1091
01:27:17.880 --> 01:27:24.640
an hour. But usually, well, i'll tell you a secret.

1092
01:27:24.760 --> 01:27:28.199
Sometimes I have a tendency to talk a lot.

1093
01:27:31.319 --> 01:27:32.760
But some of these titles are pretty good.

1094
01:27:33.840 --> 01:27:43.560
Question automatic thinking evicts self prejudice, brain plasticity. So that

1095
01:27:43.800 --> 01:27:48.439
was twenty first of February twenty twenty. That's when I

1096
01:27:48.520 --> 01:27:52.800
started putting dates on them, So in twenty twenty February

1097
01:27:53.479 --> 01:28:01.960
or January actually January, okay, right, so number fifty three

1098
01:28:02.319 --> 01:28:08.039
eight for September twenty nineteen. So I started doing these

1099
01:28:08.159 --> 01:28:15.119
relaxation hypnosis for stress, anxiety and panic attacks in probably

1100
01:28:15.359 --> 01:28:22.920
two thousand and fifteen, probably it's one of the first,

1101
01:28:23.159 --> 01:28:27.199
probably maybe two thousand and sixteen. It's one of the

1102
01:28:27.319 --> 01:28:30.560
first ones I did when I moved in here, because

1103
01:28:30.560 --> 01:28:31.199
I remember.

1104
01:28:30.960 --> 01:28:32.560
I did it. I actually made some videos.

1105
01:28:33.039 --> 01:28:38.640
I think I did thirty two videos, and I had

1106
01:28:38.680 --> 01:28:41.239
them on YouTube, and I made podcasts and I had

1107
01:28:41.840 --> 01:28:44.319
proper microphones and stuff. It was the first time i'd

1108
01:28:44.359 --> 01:28:50.159
really tried that out. Vicecript No mass that's another one.

1109
01:28:50.199 --> 01:28:52.199
I was good. It's nearly an hour long.

1110
01:28:54.479 --> 01:28:57.560
See some of these these are the suddenly recordings that

1111
01:28:58.520 --> 01:29:03.359
I felt were really good, not like good like ooh

1112
01:29:04.760 --> 01:29:11.039
but oh whatever that means, but just like, yeah, quite creative.

1113
01:29:11.199 --> 01:29:17.399
And because I used to I used to do it

1114
01:29:17.520 --> 01:29:17.760
with this.

1115
01:29:17.880 --> 01:29:22.079
Little microphone there was attached like a lapel microphone. The

1116
01:29:22.239 --> 01:29:25.399
quality of the sound isn't perfect, to be honest, I mean,

1117
01:29:25.479 --> 01:29:27.439
it's probably never going to be perfect, but it was

1118
01:29:29.319 --> 01:29:31.720
it was okay for what I was doing because I

1119
01:29:31.840 --> 01:29:36.079
was standing up talking and if you remember, this was

1120
01:29:36.199 --> 01:29:41.600
during two thousand and twenty, you know, and I was

1121
01:29:41.680 --> 01:29:45.319
doing a lot in January, February, March April twenty twenty,

1122
01:29:45.880 --> 01:29:48.439
so there was a lot going on in that time

1123
01:29:48.880 --> 01:29:53.359
of you know, in the world back then. So I

1124
01:29:53.439 --> 01:29:57.479
guess I was just trying to put out a little

1125
01:29:57.520 --> 01:30:02.079
bit of maybe a little bit of relaxation, a bit

1126
01:30:02.119 --> 01:30:08.560
of healing and yeah, so I did these very very

1127
01:30:08.680 --> 01:30:16.399
regularly nineteenth for June seventeenth, for June twenty first, twenty

1128
01:30:16.520 --> 01:30:20.640
second of June, twenty third of June, twenty fourth, twenty fifth,

1129
01:30:21.000 --> 01:30:25.520
twenty ninth, second of July, two on the second of July,

1130
01:30:25.840 --> 01:30:29.479
third of July, fifth, seventh of July, thirteenth of July

1131
01:30:29.800 --> 01:30:32.359
five years ago, sixteenth.

1132
01:30:32.920 --> 01:30:35.399
Two on the same date. See what I mean? It

1133
01:30:35.479 --> 01:30:36.520
was like there was dates.

1134
01:30:36.880 --> 01:30:40.239
It wasn't every day, but sometimes it was a few

1135
01:30:40.319 --> 01:30:49.880
days in a row, and I ended up doing so

1136
01:30:50.119 --> 01:30:52.079
far got up to what's going on there?

1137
01:30:52.560 --> 01:30:58.399
That's weird? Go away, stop it. Two hundred and forty three,

1138
01:31:01.560 --> 01:31:02.640
nine years I suppose.

1139
01:31:02.720 --> 01:31:06.800
Really there's quite a different there's a bit of a

1140
01:31:06.880 --> 01:31:09.960
gap between when I started doing them and I finished

1141
01:31:10.000 --> 01:31:16.039
doing them. Did I answer the question? I don't know

1142
01:31:16.159 --> 01:31:16.880
what was the question?

1143
01:31:17.039 --> 01:31:17.159
Now?

1144
01:31:17.479 --> 01:31:18.359
Was what was the question?

1145
01:31:20.000 --> 01:31:23.520
Oh? Okay, I think I have so yeah, Thanks ing.

1146
01:31:25.079 --> 01:31:28.560
Ali asks. Do you ever mis washing your hair?

1147
01:31:29.640 --> 01:31:30.439
How rude?

1148
01:31:31.960 --> 01:31:35.479
Also curious about your take on poetry, both reading and writing?

1149
01:31:36.600 --> 01:31:37.399
Well I do.

1150
01:31:38.079 --> 01:31:43.319
I do still wash my hair even though it's receding,

1151
01:31:45.880 --> 01:31:47.840
and I do shave it, but I don't shave it

1152
01:31:47.960 --> 01:31:51.319
to the bone. I kind of trim it, if you

1153
01:31:51.359 --> 01:31:54.239
know what I mean. So I do still wash because

1154
01:31:54.239 --> 01:31:56.159
I've still got hair follow calls, and I still wash.

1155
01:31:56.239 --> 01:31:57.920
I do still wash my hair when I'm in a shower.

1156
01:31:59.439 --> 01:32:02.119
And even it's going to sound weird.

1157
01:32:02.880 --> 01:32:04.920
Even when I used to shave my head all the

1158
01:32:04.960 --> 01:32:08.000
way to the bone, like completely, you know, to the scalp,

1159
01:32:08.439 --> 01:32:12.760
I still used to wash my scalp. It's just I

1160
01:32:12.800 --> 01:32:16.119
don't know, it just felt like I should. There's something

1161
01:32:16.159 --> 01:32:19.199
I should do, and so yeah, I.

1162
01:32:19.199 --> 01:32:19.880
Do still wash.

1163
01:32:20.039 --> 01:32:21.880
So even if I was bored, I'd still wash my hair.

1164
01:32:22.000 --> 01:32:25.960
Even if I was completely bored. However weird that might sound,

1165
01:32:26.039 --> 01:32:27.479
I probably would still wash my head.

1166
01:32:33.319 --> 01:32:36.680
Yeah it might. Maybe it's a weird thing to do.

1167
01:32:36.880 --> 01:32:37.720
I'm not sure.

1168
01:32:40.960 --> 01:32:44.239
Curious about your take on poetry, both reading and writing.

1169
01:32:47.479 --> 01:32:51.319
I used to write poetry when I was a kid.

1170
01:32:53.039 --> 01:32:57.119
I suppose that's mointed songs. But I wrote poetry at

1171
01:32:57.239 --> 01:33:03.960
various times all the way through my twenties and then

1172
01:33:04.079 --> 01:33:12.000
I kind of stopped. Yeah, I used to be quite

1173
01:33:12.039 --> 01:33:19.760
into poetry, but not probably not traditional poetry I quite liked.

1174
01:33:19.840 --> 01:33:23.880
I was very into beat poetry, which was.

1175
01:33:26.079 --> 01:33:27.000
Also I was quite.

1176
01:33:26.880 --> 01:33:31.039
Into Buddhist poetry as well, but this was like the

1177
01:33:31.119 --> 01:33:36.159
early nineties. I became very interested in the Beat generation.

1178
01:33:36.880 --> 01:33:39.920
Anna in Ginsburg. He did a book. It was basically

1179
01:33:40.600 --> 01:33:45.319
a poem called how and in it. I can't say

1180
01:33:45.359 --> 01:33:48.560
I enjoyed the book, to be honest, but he was

1181
01:33:48.600 --> 01:33:51.439
a big name in the They were all on drugs,

1182
01:33:51.479 --> 01:33:55.399
basically write in and doing all kinds of stuff.

1183
01:33:56.640 --> 01:33:58.560
But some of it really I liked.

1184
01:34:00.119 --> 01:34:04.560
My favorite poets and also he was a writer, was

1185
01:34:04.800 --> 01:34:09.760
Charles Berkowski, And there's something about the realism I liked,

1186
01:34:10.000 --> 01:34:18.319
the the non floweriness of him. He yeah, I'm not

1187
01:34:18.399 --> 01:34:21.920
quite sure how to explain it. And he didn't care

1188
01:34:22.000 --> 01:34:26.359
about rhyming. And that was the first time really that

1189
01:34:28.119 --> 01:34:32.920
I think that was the first time that when I

1190
01:34:33.039 --> 01:34:39.039
discovered the Beat generation, that I realized that not all

1191
01:34:39.800 --> 01:34:46.000
poems rhyme, all rhymes rhyme, were not all poems rhyme,

1192
01:34:47.760 --> 01:34:53.680
not all rhyme's poem. And it threw me off a

1193
01:34:53.720 --> 01:35:00.720
little bit because I was always I was always a rhymer, generally,

1194
01:35:00.760 --> 01:35:05.760
always rhymed and realizing. And I think that was more

1195
01:35:05.840 --> 01:35:11.840
to do with I guess I was, you know, when

1196
01:35:11.880 --> 01:35:14.359
I was probably from the age of eight, I used

1197
01:35:14.359 --> 01:35:20.800
to write lyrics, songs and song lyrics, so they kind

1198
01:35:20.840 --> 01:35:28.159
of had to rhyme really, but in the early nineties

1199
01:35:28.319 --> 01:35:34.880
I thought, like ninety two, ninety three, ninety four, I yeah,

1200
01:35:34.920 --> 01:35:38.880
I got really into the Beat generation poets, not just them.

1201
01:35:38.920 --> 01:35:48.399
I did read other poetry as well. No, I wouldn't

1202
01:35:48.439 --> 01:35:56.359
sound particularly a fan of poetry. It's I think, because

1203
01:35:56.439 --> 01:36:04.279
I'm able to express myself, I don't really feel I

1204
01:36:04.359 --> 01:36:09.760
need someone else to express how I feel, if that

1205
01:36:09.920 --> 01:36:15.600
makes any kind of weird sense. And I think with poetry,

1206
01:36:16.680 --> 01:36:19.319
just as in books, and you see it on Facebook posts,

1207
01:36:19.399 --> 01:36:23.199
people posting something that someone else has written, like this

1208
01:36:23.359 --> 01:36:25.600
is how I feel, Like, well, just tell me how

1209
01:36:25.680 --> 01:36:29.920
you feel, write down how you feel instead of just

1210
01:36:30.000 --> 01:36:31.079
posting what someone.

1211
01:36:30.960 --> 01:36:31.680
Else has written.

1212
01:36:33.319 --> 01:36:36.560
And I'm kind of that way, I kind of if

1213
01:36:36.600 --> 01:36:40.960
I'm gonna maybe I haven't always been able to to

1214
01:36:41.039 --> 01:36:42.359
do that, and maybe I don't do it very.

1215
01:36:42.319 --> 01:36:43.640
Well also, but.

1216
01:36:45.399 --> 01:36:50.319
I value the idea of being able to just express myself.

1217
01:36:54.000 --> 01:36:58.159
With yeah done.

1218
01:36:58.239 --> 01:37:01.039
I'm not sure if this is making any sense. I'm

1219
01:37:01.079 --> 01:37:04.199
not putting down poetry at all because it's something that

1220
01:37:04.239 --> 01:37:09.439
I was never particularly any good at. But I think

1221
01:37:09.479 --> 01:37:11.800
that's a good thing about poetry is once I discovered

1222
01:37:11.880 --> 01:37:16.159
that it doesn't have to rhyme. I also discovered that

1223
01:37:16.199 --> 01:37:21.079
it doesn't have to be good, and then I discovered

1224
01:37:21.159 --> 01:37:24.239
that actually, what's good for one person it is not

1225
01:37:24.359 --> 01:37:27.640
necessarily good for another person. Because I was growing up,

1226
01:37:27.720 --> 01:37:30.760
I was still early twenties, it took a lot of

1227
01:37:30.880 --> 01:37:39.800
learning to realize that different people felt differently about different things.

1228
01:37:39.880 --> 01:37:42.159
And I kind of knew, but you know, it's still

1229
01:37:42.880 --> 01:37:53.159
an education. I'm still amazed, really how how polarized people's

1230
01:37:53.199 --> 01:38:01.000
opinions can be sometimes like so different about the same subject.

1231
01:38:01.239 --> 01:38:06.800
It's almost like I just I see it on boxing

1232
01:38:06.920 --> 01:38:13.680
forums on Facebook and someone will post something nice and

1233
01:38:13.720 --> 01:38:18.199
then someone to post something that really just goes completely the.

1234
01:38:18.239 --> 01:38:21.479
Other way, and I'm like, what why what?

1235
01:38:22.279 --> 01:38:22.680
What? What?

1236
01:38:23.119 --> 01:38:27.479
What? Whoa that way?

1237
01:38:27.479 --> 01:38:38.800
I'm not going to talk about boxing. So I would

1238
01:38:38.840 --> 01:38:40.760
have been I would have liked to have been good

1239
01:38:41.119 --> 01:38:45.279
with I think. I think with writing, I'm a reader

1240
01:38:45.720 --> 01:38:54.640
rather than a writer with poetry and possibly a bit

1241
01:38:54.720 --> 01:39:03.159
of both. I don't do at the moment. I used

1242
01:39:03.199 --> 01:39:10.199
to write, but I used to like write journals. I've

1243
01:39:10.279 --> 01:39:19.239
discovered in more recent years that my writing is verbal.

1244
01:39:22.000 --> 01:39:26.399
My creativity is verbal. It's not writing down on a

1245
01:39:26.439 --> 01:39:31.399
piece of paper or typing on a screen, you know,

1246
01:39:31.560 --> 01:39:33.039
typing on a laptop or whatever.

1247
01:39:33.880 --> 01:39:42.359
It's just me talking, whether it's whether it's a good

1248
01:39:42.479 --> 01:39:43.000
thing or not.

1249
01:39:43.640 --> 01:39:47.640
This is my this isn't my way of expressing myself.

1250
01:39:48.840 --> 01:39:59.319
And I think something that happened oh years ago is it?

1251
01:39:59.399 --> 01:40:00.880
Probably is. First I started.

1252
01:40:00.600 --> 01:40:03.760
Happening, probably what happened when I was a kid, But

1253
01:40:05.960 --> 01:40:08.880
it was harder back then. But then, when I was

1254
01:40:09.520 --> 01:40:21.119
probably late teens, I started to realize that gradually how

1255
01:40:21.199 --> 01:40:26.600
I felt my thoughts were just as valid as other

1256
01:40:26.680 --> 01:40:30.439
people's thoughts. What I had to say was just as

1257
01:40:30.520 --> 01:40:34.000
valid as theirs. It didn't mean that I was right

1258
01:40:36.479 --> 01:40:38.199
or that they were right, or that they were wrong,

1259
01:40:38.319 --> 01:40:43.760
or that I was wrong, but it's equal. However, it

1260
01:40:43.880 --> 01:40:46.119
was difficult back then because I was around a lot

1261
01:40:46.159 --> 01:40:49.720
of older people, and I found that a lot of

1262
01:40:49.800 --> 01:40:54.640
them were true to me, like a young person talking

1263
01:40:54.760 --> 01:40:58.680
down to me, almost telling me how things should be.

1264
01:41:04.880 --> 01:41:07.520
But over time, I guess once I got to my twenties,

1265
01:41:09.560 --> 01:41:13.680
I was reading a lot more, and I was kind

1266
01:41:13.680 --> 01:41:20.840
of educating myself, and I was starting to realize getting

1267
01:41:20.840 --> 01:41:24.800
to getting to know myself. I suppose it's taken decades

1268
01:41:25.840 --> 01:41:27.600
to even get to where I am now, and I'm

1269
01:41:27.640 --> 01:41:29.720
not sure where i am. I know where I am,

1270
01:41:30.640 --> 01:41:34.119
but you know, I'm not sure what kind of progression

1271
01:41:34.159 --> 01:41:38.359
I've made. And it's just the most serious Q and

1272
01:41:38.439 --> 01:41:51.039
A Friday. Ever, I do apologize, Yeah, that point, and

1273
01:41:51.119 --> 01:41:53.840
this is something that I've thought about back then, is

1274
01:41:53.960 --> 01:41:59.840
like without getting into an argument with someone, you know,

1275
01:42:03.239 --> 01:42:05.600
and I know sometimes it is just opinions, but my

1276
01:42:05.720 --> 01:42:10.520
opinions is my opinion is as valid as anyone else's, okay,

1277
01:42:10.800 --> 01:42:17.039
regardless of how ridiculous it might be at times. But

1278
01:42:17.079 --> 01:42:19.720
I also realized as I got older that I would

1279
01:42:19.840 --> 01:42:28.439
never I don't hold opinions that highly. And I realized

1280
01:42:28.479 --> 01:42:29.520
that over time.

1281
01:42:29.479 --> 01:42:32.000
That having.

1282
01:42:33.319 --> 01:42:42.800
Restrictive, unmovable beliefs in some ways can be really helpful,

1283
01:42:43.479 --> 01:42:49.800
but in other ways maybe not so much. So I

1284
01:42:49.920 --> 01:42:58.119
think I spent the last probably twenty years slowly and

1285
01:42:58.640 --> 01:43:08.960
you know, I'm trying to reduce my beliefs, reduce my

1286
01:43:09.479 --> 01:43:13.000
limited thinking. And there is a lot of limited I

1287
01:43:13.039 --> 01:43:22.560
don't have a lot of limited thinking. My brain, for

1288
01:43:22.760 --> 01:43:26.560
you know, my brain is definitely not not wired correctly,

1289
01:43:27.640 --> 01:43:42.960
which is fine, but it's made life difficulty. Wow, my

1290
01:43:43.079 --> 01:43:46.079
stomach's been gurgling for two days now when I'm hungry,

1291
01:43:47.680 --> 01:43:49.920
maybe used to go well, maybe it's always gurgled, I

1292
01:43:50.039 --> 01:43:56.680
just not noticed it before, but I've tried to.

1293
01:43:58.520 --> 01:44:00.800
So I think what's helped is being around.

1294
01:44:00.640 --> 01:44:07.239
People that have different belief systems to me, like completely different.

1295
01:44:09.159 --> 01:44:13.560
And I know some people I've seen on Facebook. If

1296
01:44:13.640 --> 01:44:16.880
you support that politician, then we're not friends. That kind

1297
01:44:16.920 --> 01:44:20.680
of stuff, like Okay, I don't get that. I really

1298
01:44:20.760 --> 01:44:27.359
don't because I just don't. And if I wasn't friends

1299
01:44:27.399 --> 01:44:32.640
with people that had different opinions to me, I literally

1300
01:44:32.680 --> 01:44:34.399
would not have any friends.

1301
01:44:36.000 --> 01:44:38.279
Because I don't know anyone that.

1302
01:44:40.000 --> 01:44:51.479
Has the same viewpoints as myself generally, maybe some, but not,

1303
01:44:51.760 --> 01:44:54.960
like you know, there's always I mean, I was speaking

1304
01:44:55.000 --> 01:44:56.760
to someone the other day and it's amazing.

1305
01:44:56.840 --> 01:44:58.199
They came out with something that was.

1306
01:45:00.479 --> 01:45:08.439
Outrageous, like outrageous that they weren't joking, that's the thing,

1307
01:45:09.520 --> 01:45:13.159
And I was like, wow, okay, but I didn't care.

1308
01:45:15.640 --> 01:45:18.600
Thirty years ago I might have had something to say,

1309
01:45:19.239 --> 01:45:25.039
but like that, it don't matter. Has laughed because everyone

1310
01:45:25.119 --> 01:45:28.560
can believe what they want to believe. I can't control

1311
01:45:28.600 --> 01:45:35.119
what other people think, and there's a kind of peacefulness

1312
01:45:35.199 --> 01:45:35.359
in that.

1313
01:45:35.520 --> 01:45:36.800
I think kind of a.

1314
01:45:38.680 --> 01:45:48.000
Sense of relaxation and again letting go, realizing that I'm

1315
01:45:48.039 --> 01:45:49.920
only really responsible.

1316
01:45:49.319 --> 01:45:57.920
For what I think. Yeah, man, wow, this has got deep.

1317
01:46:00.479 --> 01:46:01.039
I'll give you that.

1318
01:46:02.079 --> 01:46:05.680
For those that don't know, I used to write songs, okay,

1319
01:46:05.760 --> 01:46:08.359
when I was eight, nine, ten, eleven, all the way

1320
01:46:08.439 --> 01:46:11.079
up to fifteen. All in fact, all the way up

1321
01:46:11.159 --> 01:46:16.079
to the last one I did. I was thinking I

1322
01:46:16.199 --> 01:46:20.000
was thirty. So I've writ and written a few songs,

1323
01:46:20.079 --> 01:46:23.640
even recorded a few songs, not professionally, but with a

1324
01:46:23.720 --> 01:46:29.920
professional musician, you know, but not in an actual studio studio,

1325
01:46:30.039 --> 01:46:33.479
you know. But the lyrics of my first song was

1326
01:46:33.560 --> 01:46:37.319
called Mandy and I recorded that when I was eight

1327
01:46:37.479 --> 01:46:42.680
or nine. Mandy Baby is basically as a girl I

1328
01:46:42.840 --> 01:46:48.079
met at Caravan Park and I fell in love with her.

1329
01:46:49.079 --> 01:46:53.039
We spent one day together for each run around pulling

1330
01:46:53.079 --> 01:46:57.520
each other it's hair and running off again and checking

1331
01:46:57.600 --> 01:46:59.600
sad at each other, you know, things like that. And

1332
01:46:59.680 --> 01:47:02.279
then she left and so I realized I was I

1333
01:47:02.359 --> 01:47:06.520
loved her forever. So I wrote a song Mandy. It's

1334
01:47:06.600 --> 01:47:11.319
called Mandy Baby. Listen to me, Mandy Baby. I want

1335
01:47:11.359 --> 01:47:14.159
you to see Mandy Deer. I want you to hear

1336
01:47:14.720 --> 01:47:18.479
I don't want a single tear. I love you, baby, Mandy,

1337
01:47:18.520 --> 01:47:20.600
I do. I just want to know if you love

1338
01:47:20.680 --> 01:47:24.520
me too. Just say something. I want to know, Just

1339
01:47:24.600 --> 01:47:30.159
say something like hello, oh Mandy, I love you. That's

1340
01:47:30.199 --> 01:47:33.279
a lot more enthusiastic when I sing it, or when

1341
01:47:33.319 --> 01:47:36.800
I used to sing it, like, man, be bit, listen

1342
01:47:36.920 --> 01:47:39.239
to me. Okay, well I'm not going to sing it now.

1343
01:47:40.760 --> 01:47:44.239
I did another one. It was like, do you really

1344
01:47:44.359 --> 01:47:47.119
have to go and leave me in great sorrow? Do

1345
01:47:47.239 --> 01:47:49.399
you really have to leave and say goodbye to me

1346
01:47:49.600 --> 01:47:54.239
without affection? I will definitely miss your tender, loving kiss.

1347
01:47:56.119 --> 01:47:58.439
I haven't I even even kissed the girl at that point.

1348
01:47:59.119 --> 01:48:01.159
So that was another song. I can't remember that. There

1349
01:48:01.239 --> 01:48:04.640
was another one called called Sarah. It's a bad Girl

1350
01:48:04.680 --> 01:48:07.560
I was in love with when I was about fourteen.

1351
01:48:09.399 --> 01:48:12.119
Sarah Baby, listen to me, Sarah Baby, I want you

1352
01:48:12.159 --> 01:48:16.560
to see. No, it's a different song. So, dear Sarah,

1353
01:48:16.840 --> 01:48:19.840
how do you do hope you're missing me the way

1354
01:48:20.119 --> 01:48:22.960
I'm missing you. She didn't even like me.

1355
01:48:23.399 --> 01:48:24.319
I don't know what like.

1356
01:48:24.640 --> 01:48:27.319
She didn't miss me, she wasn't interested in me. She

1357
01:48:27.439 --> 01:48:31.640
told me to go away. But hey, anyway, dear Sarah,

1358
01:48:31.840 --> 01:48:34.800
how do you do hope you're missing me the way

1359
01:48:35.000 --> 01:48:38.640
I'm missing you. Do you think about me in your dreams?

1360
01:48:39.159 --> 01:48:44.840
If you do, think about out out what it seemed, Okay,

1361
01:48:45.880 --> 01:48:49.880
it's bad, you think about what it's what it means.

1362
01:48:51.159 --> 01:48:54.319
Feelings are not always shown during the day, but when

1363
01:48:54.359 --> 01:48:58.840
you go to sleep, or you're worries or your problems

1364
01:48:58.920 --> 01:49:04.039
drift away, or or your worries drift away, then your

1365
01:49:04.159 --> 01:49:08.760
feelings start to rise. Your feelings start to rise, showing

1366
01:49:08.880 --> 01:49:10.600
something that you didn't realize.

1367
01:49:12.920 --> 01:49:14.640
It's quite deep actually for my age.

1368
01:49:14.680 --> 01:49:18.640
Really, feelings are not always shown during the day, but

1369
01:49:18.800 --> 01:49:21.439
when you go to sleep or your worries drift away,

1370
01:49:22.399 --> 01:49:27.119
then your feelings start to arise, showing something that you

1371
01:49:27.239 --> 01:49:28.279
didn't realize.

1372
01:49:30.640 --> 01:49:32.680
I love you, Sarah.

1373
01:49:34.119 --> 01:49:38.640
I love you, I really do. There's nothing I can

1374
01:49:38.720 --> 01:49:46.199
do something else like, oh, Sarah, I love you. So

1375
01:49:46.359 --> 01:49:47.600
that was what I did when I was a kid,

1376
01:49:47.720 --> 01:49:49.800
And then when I was about twenty six, I did

1377
01:49:49.840 --> 01:49:51.039
a song called.

1378
01:49:53.000 --> 01:49:57.319
I miss You. I can remember the words of this one.

1379
01:49:57.680 --> 01:49:58.720
I missed the way.

1380
01:50:03.640 --> 01:50:05.880
That the chorus was, I wish you'd come back to me,

1381
01:50:07.960 --> 01:50:11.039
I wish you'd come back to me. I wish you'd

1382
01:50:11.079 --> 01:50:16.399
be part of my world. I miss you endlessly. Once

1383
01:50:16.479 --> 01:50:20.319
you please be my girl. I'll be the best I

1384
01:50:20.439 --> 01:50:26.600
can be. I'll be the best UH can be, letting

1385
01:50:26.640 --> 01:50:32.239
you know just how I feel, and letting you know

1386
01:50:32.359 --> 01:50:33.359
that my love is real.

1387
01:50:33.680 --> 01:50:34.199
Something like that.

1388
01:50:34.800 --> 01:50:36.760
But it was like I miss you, I missed the

1389
01:50:37.159 --> 01:50:42.520
miss the way I'll touch your fingertips with my lips or.

1390
01:50:42.560 --> 01:50:43.079
Something like that.

1391
01:50:43.800 --> 01:50:46.039
So there was that one and I did ah the

1392
01:50:46.159 --> 01:50:51.479
Tuesday song, which was I I I wonder, I wonder,

1393
01:50:51.640 --> 01:50:53.800
I wonder why do you?

1394
01:50:55.520 --> 01:50:55.880
What was it?

1395
01:51:02.199 --> 01:51:05.800
I wish you'd come back to me. I wish you'd

1396
01:51:05.840 --> 01:51:11.600
be part of my world. I'll kiss you endlessly and

1397
01:51:11.800 --> 01:51:15.720
show you they'll let me be your girl. I do

1398
01:51:15.960 --> 01:51:20.199
do do do do, show you just how much for you?

1399
01:51:20.800 --> 01:51:24.960
Whatever that was that one? What was it.

1400
01:51:26.680 --> 01:51:32.479
I I I wonder, I wonder, wonder why why you

1401
01:51:32.680 --> 01:51:37.279
had to leave and take my heart away from me?

1402
01:51:41.439 --> 01:51:47.960
I wonder wonder you had to leave and take my

1403
01:51:48.319 --> 01:51:53.760
heart away from me? Why did you lie to me?

1404
01:51:56.439 --> 01:52:02.279
And then it's of course, don't you worthy you never

1405
01:52:02.520 --> 01:52:04.760
do because Sunday.

1406
01:52:06.359 --> 01:52:08.920
I'll get it over with you, or something like that.

1407
01:52:10.159 --> 01:52:12.159
And then there's another bit that's like the bridge. Then

1408
01:52:12.199 --> 01:52:15.079
there's a chorus do do Do.

1409
01:52:15.479 --> 01:52:16.119
Do Do Do.

1410
01:52:18.560 --> 01:52:20.439
Do Do Do Do Do Do do do do do.

1411
01:52:24.880 --> 01:52:25.079
Well.

1412
01:52:25.239 --> 01:52:29.680
Yeah, I can't remember what the Tuesday Song was. It

1413
01:52:29.760 --> 01:52:32.079
was a twenty, it was a I think it was

1414
01:52:32.199 --> 01:52:38.279
the eight Hour Tuesday Song or eight hour Epic song,

1415
01:52:38.560 --> 01:52:42.199
because I spent eight hours recording it. Because what I

1416
01:52:42.279 --> 01:52:45.720
used to do is go around my cousins and my

1417
01:52:45.840 --> 01:52:49.399
cousin's dad kind of my uncle. He was a professional

1418
01:52:49.560 --> 01:52:53.039
musician in a band and he played the guitar and

1419
01:52:53.079 --> 01:52:56.760
he'd been doing it for decades. He had recording equipment

1420
01:52:57.199 --> 01:53:04.800
and everything musical and when it's keyboards, computers, eight track

1421
01:53:04.920 --> 01:53:09.439
or whatever, you know, to record stuff. So we recorded

1422
01:53:10.880 --> 01:53:13.720
did ticket to write. That was one of the first

1423
01:53:13.800 --> 01:53:17.359
things we ever did, which was the Beatles song, And

1424
01:53:17.920 --> 01:53:21.960
did the UB forty if you don't know Me by Now,

1425
01:53:23.039 --> 01:53:27.720
If you don't know Me by Now, and that came

1426
01:53:27.760 --> 01:53:28.479
out quite nice.

1427
01:53:29.439 --> 01:53:30.079
And then.

1428
01:53:31.840 --> 01:53:34.439
I did the I Miss You went around there because

1429
01:53:35.520 --> 01:53:37.479
I split up with my girlfriend and I wanted to

1430
01:53:37.520 --> 01:53:38.039
get back.

1431
01:53:37.920 --> 01:53:40.920
Together with her for some reason. So I wrote that song.

1432
01:53:42.039 --> 01:53:47.039
Oh, the next one was called I Wrote You the song. Okay,

1433
01:53:47.159 --> 01:53:49.479
So I wrote the song I Miss You and then

1434
01:53:49.520 --> 01:53:54.279
I wrote a song about having written the song, which

1435
01:53:54.359 --> 01:53:56.560
is called I wrote your song, And it.

1436
01:53:56.680 --> 01:54:01.279
Was like I wrote you a song. It took quite

1437
01:54:01.439 --> 01:54:02.279
a long time.

1438
01:54:03.239 --> 01:54:07.640
I pleaded to you this, this is not it was

1439
01:54:07.680 --> 01:54:10.359
some better than this way, and all you did was

1440
01:54:10.439 --> 01:54:12.520
look out of the window and side.

1441
01:54:13.640 --> 01:54:18.119
It took a long time to write the fin thing,

1442
01:54:19.119 --> 01:54:23.840
but you didn't. You just didn't care it all. And

1443
01:54:23.960 --> 01:54:25.000
then this is the chorus.

1444
01:54:25.479 --> 01:54:26.520
Why did I bother?

1445
01:54:27.640 --> 01:54:28.760
Why did I try?

1446
01:54:29.840 --> 01:54:34.560
Why did I even take the ta ha ha him?

1447
01:54:35.479 --> 01:54:36.560
Why did I bother?

1448
01:54:37.920 --> 01:54:39.239
Why did I try.

1449
01:54:40.800 --> 01:54:45.159
To write this song for you? Because it didn't even

1450
01:54:45.760 --> 01:54:47.159
play on your mind?

1451
01:54:47.520 --> 01:54:48.119
Or something like that.

1452
01:54:50.079 --> 01:54:58.199
And and then I didn't have one. I wonder, I wonder,

1453
01:54:58.840 --> 01:55:05.319
wonder why you had to leave and take my heart

1454
01:55:05.399 --> 01:55:09.720
away from me. But don't you worry. You never did

1455
01:55:10.399 --> 01:55:14.399
be somewhere out, You never do somewhere in And our review,

1456
01:55:17.279 --> 01:55:19.760
yeah mind me. And there was another one as well.

1457
01:55:19.840 --> 01:55:20.439
I can't remember.

1458
01:55:21.920 --> 01:55:27.079
So I think I did four songs with music and

1459
01:55:29.880 --> 01:55:34.119
you know, proper microphones and stuff, and my cousin was

1460
01:55:34.159 --> 01:55:38.239
embarrassed by them. So I actually posted them on Facebook,

1461
01:55:38.720 --> 01:55:41.760
probably about ten years ago, and he said, please take

1462
01:55:41.800 --> 01:55:45.880
them off because He helped also produce them because he

1463
01:55:46.000 --> 01:55:47.800
was on the keyboard.

1464
01:55:47.399 --> 01:55:50.720
And stuff, and I thought they were good.

1465
01:55:50.920 --> 01:55:53.960
I know that the quality was terrible because they were old,

1466
01:55:55.159 --> 01:56:01.039
ninety six, ninety seven, some long time ago, fuzzy, that

1467
01:56:02.319 --> 01:56:07.000
they were saved on a tape, you know, like a

1468
01:56:07.359 --> 01:56:14.640
normal tape, not digital or anything. I just I guess

1469
01:56:14.680 --> 01:56:22.039
I just meant a lot to me. But that I

1470
01:56:22.079 --> 01:56:24.720
guess that was my poetry. That was me trying to

1471
01:56:25.199 --> 01:56:29.399
do poetry. And I loved singing. I loved I wanted

1472
01:56:29.439 --> 01:56:31.600
to be a singer. It's probably the thing I wanted

1473
01:56:31.720 --> 01:56:35.000
most of all of anything I've ever wanted to do,

1474
01:56:35.239 --> 01:56:36.760
probably was.

1475
01:56:39.359 --> 01:56:40.079
To be a singer.

1476
01:56:41.439 --> 01:56:44.800
It's not going to happen because I can't really sing anymore,

1477
01:56:45.920 --> 01:56:47.640
but I used to be able to sing quite well,

1478
01:56:49.159 --> 01:56:53.600
and I kind of wish I pursued it a little bit.

1479
01:56:57.359 --> 01:57:00.640
I mean, you know, I entered talent content. I never

1480
01:57:00.680 --> 01:57:05.279
wanted talent contest singing contest. But at the same time,

1481
01:57:05.359 --> 01:57:09.000
I never got kicked off, I never got booed. I

1482
01:57:09.079 --> 01:57:12.159
guess I was maybe I was mediocre. I was I

1483
01:57:12.199 --> 01:57:18.760
could hold a note and I was okay, you know,

1484
01:57:20.079 --> 01:57:23.960
I think I was better with songs that I wrote,

1485
01:57:25.760 --> 01:57:31.920
because technically they can't be out of key really if

1486
01:57:31.960 --> 01:57:35.039
it's your own song. If you listen to some Beatles songs,

1487
01:57:35.640 --> 01:57:37.439
there's a few that are a little bit off key.

1488
01:57:38.720 --> 01:57:40.680
That a bit of John Lennon singing and it's kind

1489
01:57:40.720 --> 01:57:44.520
of off a little bit, but it doesn't matter because

1490
01:57:45.840 --> 01:57:47.079
that's what makes me so good.

1491
01:57:49.960 --> 01:57:51.640
I'm not saying he was singing out a key, but

1492
01:57:51.720 --> 01:57:56.359
it was kind of. I just didn't your dodge will

1493
01:57:56.399 --> 01:57:59.880
mess with a John Nennon. No, it's suddenly you know,

1494
01:58:00.079 --> 01:58:05.119
it was recorded, and some of.

1495
01:58:05.119 --> 01:58:08.319
The earlier stuff was recorded quickly. You can hear, it's

1496
01:58:08.359 --> 01:58:12.840
almost live. It's recorded, and then they rushed it out

1497
01:58:12.920 --> 01:58:15.399
and sold it and you can hear. And that's why

1498
01:58:15.520 --> 01:58:18.680
it's so good because it was not polished. The early

1499
01:58:18.760 --> 01:58:22.560
stuff wasn't polished like the later stuff. You know, if

1500
01:58:22.640 --> 01:58:27.479
you go to the later stuff, it was other than

1501
01:58:27.720 --> 01:58:35.159
Probably at the time, there wasn't many albums, many groups

1502
01:58:35.560 --> 01:58:40.600
putting that much effort into production quality as they did

1503
01:58:40.720 --> 01:58:43.760
with Sergeant Pepper or the last.

1504
01:58:43.600 --> 01:58:48.319
Album they did. How do they get talking about a

1505
01:58:48.439 --> 01:58:49.560
Beatles I.

1506
01:58:49.640 --> 01:58:59.560
Don't know, so yeah, I did quite like the idea

1507
01:58:59.600 --> 01:59:02.840
of righting poems I did write really well. I thought

1508
01:59:02.920 --> 01:59:07.039
was a really good poem once about my childhood, and.

1509
01:59:09.800 --> 01:59:10.399
I wrote it.

1510
01:59:14.640 --> 01:59:22.319
Probably early nineties. I got back into writing poetry ninety five.

1511
01:59:23.760 --> 01:59:29.279
That kind of helped me get through some stuff. M

1512
01:59:31.119 --> 01:59:34.000
But what I used to find is I'd always end

1513
01:59:34.119 --> 01:59:38.760
up going a little bit silly with it and almost

1514
01:59:38.880 --> 01:59:43.560
finding like a funny line here and there. So I

1515
01:59:43.640 --> 01:59:46.479
guess that's just part of me. And I wasn't setting

1516
01:59:46.560 --> 01:59:50.399
out to say a funny do a funny poem, so

1517
01:59:50.479 --> 01:59:54.239
it'd be kind of serious and then it'd be silly,

1518
01:59:54.520 --> 01:59:56.560
a little silly bit at the end or maybe in

1519
01:59:56.640 --> 02:00:01.680
the middle. And yeah, yeah, I quite like them. I

1520
02:00:01.760 --> 02:00:05.840
wish I've kept them. If idly kept all my poems

1521
02:00:05.880 --> 02:00:10.399
i'd ever written, they might not be a lot, but

1522
02:00:10.439 --> 02:00:14.800
it's probably about fifty maybe one hundred, maybe more, maybe

1523
02:00:14.880 --> 02:00:17.560
much more than that, but you know, over the years,

1524
02:00:21.399 --> 02:00:23.800
oh well, oh well.

1525
02:00:23.800 --> 02:00:24.319
Never mind.

1526
02:00:24.439 --> 02:00:32.880
Day. Yeah, I think that's the end of the recording.

1527
02:00:33.279 --> 02:00:38.479
I don't know how long I've been talking for still

1528
02:00:38.600 --> 02:00:41.760
light outside, not that that really means too much, because

1529
02:00:41.760 --> 02:00:43.079
it's light till about ten o'clock.

1530
02:00:43.159 --> 02:00:43.600
I think.

1531
02:00:45.000 --> 02:00:45.720
It's half part.

1532
02:00:45.840 --> 02:00:55.399
It's five point thirty five pm. So this does bring

1533
02:00:55.720 --> 02:01:02.399
me to the end of this recording.

1534
02:01:04.840 --> 02:01:06.479
So thank you for listening.

1535
02:01:07.600 --> 02:01:13.840
Thank you, Hope, Temmy Ng and Ali for your questions.

1536
02:01:14.079 --> 02:01:19.399
I hope I've answered them. I'm not sure if I have.

1537
02:01:21.039 --> 02:01:25.479
I might have slightly gone off track. It's possible it

1538
02:01:25.720 --> 02:01:29.479
may have happened once or twice before. So thank you

1539
02:01:29.560 --> 02:01:33.000
for listening. Remember to be kind to yourself, because you

1540
02:01:33.119 --> 02:01:36.079
do deserve to be happy and be gentle with yourself.

1541
02:01:37.439 --> 02:01:54.840
You deserve to feel safe, lots of love. Bye. Relax

1542
02:01:58.520 --> 02:01:59.239
in a more.

1543
02:02:00.119 --> 02:02:10.039
Deep and meaningful way, maybe in a way that can

1544
02:02:11.680 --> 02:02:20.920
not just allow you to feel calmer now and throughout

1545
02:02:22.039 --> 02:02:31.159
the time we spend together here, not just relaxed at

1546
02:02:31.199 --> 02:02:35.359
the end of the recording when it's finished and you

1547
02:02:35.439 --> 02:02:45.720
can enjoy that sense of comfort and peace, but also

1548
02:02:53.319 --> 02:02:59.680
I think it would be nice to have those feelings

1549
02:03:04.000 --> 02:03:08.760
relaxation continue.

1550
02:03:09.880 --> 02:03:10.920
For longer.

1551
02:03:14.199 --> 02:03:24.000
After the recording has ended, so that you can still

1552
02:03:24.720 --> 02:03:34.560
benefit from listening to my voice, maybe in a few

1553
02:03:34.640 --> 02:03:50.399
hours time, perhaps tomorrow, and then by listening regularly, especially

1554
02:03:50.479 --> 02:03:54.960
if you find like some people do and myself as well,

1555
02:03:55.119 --> 02:04:02.039
I sometimes I find one particular recording that really resonates

1556
02:04:02.159 --> 02:04:08.479
with me, and I just listened to it over and

1557
02:04:08.600 --> 02:04:21.920
over again, every morning, every evening. There was this recording

1558
02:04:22.239 --> 02:04:28.520
from We're going back to about nineteen ninety nine. It

1559
02:04:28.680 --> 02:04:34.279
wasn't hypnosis, but it was a guided visualizations. It kind

1560
02:04:34.319 --> 02:04:41.359
of was hypnosis, really, and I managed to find it

1561
02:04:41.479 --> 02:04:45.359
again and it still has the same effect on me.

1562
02:04:48.000 --> 02:04:57.680
And part of it was the person's voice relaxed me.

1563
02:05:01.560 --> 02:05:07.720
She just felt so peaceful, and I'd look forward to

1564
02:05:07.920 --> 02:05:20.840
listening to her in the morning and in the evening, and.

1565
02:05:21.359 --> 02:05:30.000
I knew before even pressing the play button that as

1566
02:05:30.119 --> 02:05:34.159
soon as I've done that, pressed the play button. This

1567
02:05:34.439 --> 02:05:45.840
was in the days of CD players pressed the play button.

1568
02:05:49.279 --> 02:05:52.039
In fact, it might have even been a tape tape recorder.

1569
02:05:53.359 --> 02:06:01.720
I'd lie down on the bed and then even without

1570
02:06:02.319 --> 02:06:05.600
necessarily listening.

1571
02:06:06.800 --> 02:06:08.319
To her words.

1572
02:06:11.239 --> 02:06:20.560
Because I had them memorized. Really, it was as if

1573
02:06:20.640 --> 02:06:31.840
my body knew exactly what to do, and the muscles

1574
02:06:32.119 --> 02:06:53.439
just almost went into automatic relaxation, and I remember my

1575
02:06:53.680 --> 02:06:57.680
mind would slow down.

1576
02:07:03.359 --> 02:07:03.520
Now.

1577
02:07:05.720 --> 02:07:12.399
Now, I was listening to this recording in the early

1578
02:07:12.520 --> 02:07:20.319
days of learning hypnosis, and long before I ever made

1579
02:07:20.880 --> 02:07:28.199
any videos or audio recordings myself, because I didn't start

1580
02:07:28.279 --> 02:07:38.000
doing that till two thousand and six. I knew.

1581
02:07:41.960 --> 02:07:43.279
I knew how.

1582
02:07:44.960 --> 02:07:58.720
Helpful I found being able to just let go, to

1583
02:07:58.840 --> 02:08:04.000
have that trust in the person that I'm listening to,

1584
02:08:11.720 --> 02:08:19.800
knowing that it's going to be just as relaxing, if

1585
02:08:19.880 --> 02:08:29.239
not more so. Each time you hear my voice, you

1586
02:08:29.359 --> 02:08:40.920
may feel the same. Some people have been listening to

1587
02:08:41.039 --> 02:08:54.880
me for over a decade, maybe not solidly, obviously, not

1588
02:08:55.000 --> 02:09:03.159
twenty four hours a day. Maybe people come back. Some

1589
02:09:03.359 --> 02:09:16.960
people may be listen every day. That's something that I

1590
02:09:18.239 --> 02:09:34.239
do which you may not realize by listening, is when

1591
02:09:34.520 --> 02:09:49.960
I record these recordings. Now, for example, I also am

1592
02:09:50.279 --> 02:09:53.319
affected by the words.

1593
02:09:54.640 --> 02:10:01.159
That I say. So if I.

1594
02:10:04.119 --> 02:10:11.439
Set you focus on your feet, notice your feet relaxing,

1595
02:10:14.960 --> 02:10:22.640
I will be focusing on my feet. I will be

1596
02:10:22.960 --> 02:10:41.039
noticing my feet relaxing. If I said, focus on your hands,

1597
02:10:43.840 --> 02:10:53.399
and maybe notice the difference between each hand, perhaps noticed

1598
02:10:53.479 --> 02:10:59.520
the air in the room, the temperature of the room.

1599
02:11:01.439 --> 02:11:11.800
On the backs of your hands, you may start to

1600
02:11:12.399 --> 02:11:20.439
notice what almost feels like a very light breeze, even

1601
02:11:20.520 --> 02:11:24.680
though there may not be any type of breeze at

1602
02:11:24.800 --> 02:11:37.720
all where you are right now. And as you become

1603
02:11:38.399 --> 02:11:52.760
aware of your hands, I'm also aware of how relaxed

1604
02:11:53.079 --> 02:12:16.840
my hands are feeling now, and when it comes to

1605
02:12:18.399 --> 02:12:24.399
potentially drifting off to sleep, which may be the reason

1606
02:12:24.760 --> 02:12:40.960
you're listening, I also feel drowsy when I make these recordings.

1607
02:12:45.680 --> 02:12:47.760
I also notice.

1608
02:12:49.319 --> 02:12:50.319
My mind.

1609
02:12:52.039 --> 02:13:11.960
Drifting. In fact, at times I've actually fallen asleep without

1610
02:13:12.079 --> 02:13:26.000
even noticing, and then I carry on talking. And it's

1611
02:13:26.119 --> 02:13:27.439
only when I.

1612
02:13:29.079 --> 02:13:37.079
Listen back to do the editing I hear snoring.

1613
02:13:38.359 --> 02:13:45.640
And I think I don't remember snoring. I remember talking.

1614
02:13:48.760 --> 02:13:56.039
Snoring was a pig turned up. That's why I sound

1615
02:13:56.199 --> 02:14:04.039
like when I snare, how I get read into a

1616
02:14:05.920 --> 02:14:24.119
whole experience. I don't know how you feel. How relaxed

1617
02:14:24.199 --> 02:14:34.239
do you feel in your feet, how relaxed you feel

1618
02:14:34.479 --> 02:14:35.439
in your hands.

1619
02:14:50.520 --> 02:14:55.319
I have noticed more and more.

1620
02:15:01.079 --> 02:15:13.720
That the more relaxed, deeper level of comfort you feel,

1621
02:15:17.439 --> 02:15:33.560
the easier your breathing becomes. It's almost like that additional

1622
02:15:36.760 --> 02:15:57.680
muscle relaxation. So this allows you to breathe easier without

1623
02:15:59.199 --> 02:16:19.880
necessary focusing on your breath. However, being able to notice

1624
02:16:30.560 --> 02:16:31.800
the ease.

1625
02:16:34.879 --> 02:16:35.600
In which.

1626
02:16:42.959 --> 02:17:02.280
You breathe so naturally you brew yes, sorry, very easily

1627
02:17:03.879 --> 02:17:50.600
and smoothly. Whenever I imagine my breathing improving, when I've

1628
02:17:50.639 --> 02:18:06.440
got my eyes closed, I tend to visualize a beautiful

1629
02:18:06.639 --> 02:18:23.680
field with trees and flowers producing all that life giving oxygen.

1630
02:18:43.799 --> 02:18:59.079
And it feels nice to, if nothing else, just taking

1631
02:18:59.360 --> 02:19:37.000
some time away from everything, enjoying that feeling of peace,

1632
02:19:42.079 --> 02:20:26.559
serenity with a joyful heart. Time seems to just drip by,

1633
02:20:31.120 --> 02:21:20.920
so very slowly, relaxed, so deeply peaceful, completely unattached to

1634
02:21:21.840 --> 02:22:18.760
any thoughts whatsoever in this moment, completely free, noticing that

1635
02:22:26.360 --> 02:23:12.799
your mind has slowed down. Slowed down because nothing really

1636
02:23:13.120 --> 02:23:43.719
requires your attention. You can enjoy the physical sensations of

1637
02:23:43.879 --> 02:23:56.319
allowing the stress to rip out of your body, to

1638
02:23:56.440 --> 02:24:19.959
appear out of every butt of your body, and being

1639
02:24:20.479 --> 02:24:59.120
released from your brain, n your mind slowly but surely.

1640
02:25:06.000 --> 02:25:42.479
The muscles in your legs relax res rex so very

1641
02:25:42.920 --> 02:26:22.399
deep thing, relax, so deep play, and the feelings, the

1642
02:26:22.639 --> 02:26:47.920
pleasant feelings in your arms and shoulders, deepening each part

1643
02:26:48.079 --> 02:27:29.000
of your body further and deeper and deeper, noticine, the

1644
02:27:29.159 --> 02:27:55.719
feelings in the back of your neck, the feelings in

1645
02:27:55.879 --> 02:28:45.319
your wrists, muscles in front of your body, I will say,

1646
02:28:55.159 --> 02:29:28.920
feeling peaceful, deep, There's a sense of pace.

1647
02:29:33.040 --> 02:30:09.159
Spreads through your very core. Even when you.

1648
02:30:12.159 --> 02:30:36.920
Focus on your mind, her mind becomes be and slower,

1649
02:30:52.799 --> 02:32:12.719
even deeper, relaxing, so very slow. His stomach teas full

1650
02:32:12.879 --> 02:32:59.520
in your stomach, held back. Notice, Notice how relaxed you've

1651
02:32:59.719 --> 02:33:37.319
never our feel in the hall of your back, in

1652
02:33:37.440 --> 02:33:46.319
a spy from your brain all the way down the

1653
02:33:46.479 --> 02:33:57.159
middle of your back, sending and receiving millions of messages

1654
02:33:57.920 --> 02:34:57.959
every day. Deep comfort, increase in deeply relaxed, your niece,

1655
02:35:23.719 --> 02:35:37.479
relax spreading those signals down your spine or cord into air,

1656
02:35:37.799 --> 02:35:57.200
every part of your body, your shins and your calf muscles,

1657
02:36:24.479 --> 02:36:53.920
your elbows, Feelings of peace and tranquility, spreading through your body,

1658
02:36:58.959 --> 02:37:15.239
tips of your toes, to your eyes, your fingers, all

1659
02:37:15.239 --> 02:37:31.719
the way till you'll know about I'm letting go read

1660
02:37:32.239 --> 02:38:31.719
letting hmm, peace drift in mind, Just wander in a way,

1661
02:38:41.239 --> 02:39:22.079
happy to let go, Let go completely, let go, said

1662
02:39:22.239 --> 02:41:33.360
tranquil old body enjoying a sensor listeninker ay more, hey,

1663
02:42:08.079 --> 02:42:50.159
enjoy the space, this space of peace and safety, sur

1664
02:42:50.719 --> 02:44:49.120
very relaxed us us letting go. Maybe we can just

1665
02:44:52.040 --> 02:45:00.799
focus on the different parts of your body, just to

1666
02:45:01.120 --> 02:46:29.959
notice your forehead and your eyes mutual so loose, noticing

1667
02:46:30.000 --> 02:48:02.520
in the sense of complete freedom, absolute freedom, day, pace

1668
02:48:02.920 --> 02:49:49.600
for energy, pace to breathe so much easy los you

1669
02:49:49.840 --> 02:50:39.639
may you may not have noticed your mind drifting peaceful

1670
02:50:53.719 --> 02:50:56.920
move an even more deeply.

1671
02:51:02.000 --> 02:51:03.280
In the direction of.

1672
02:51:08.399 --> 02:53:10.600
Total blissful pace blisphul pace directed to pace Colm so, Colm,

1673
02:53:22.399 --> 02:54:01.120
let him go, peace of mind, axed.

1674
02:54:04.799 --> 02:54:24.760
Body c rex.

1675
02:54:32.719 --> 02:54:34.959
Cy relaxed.

1676
02:54:59.040 --> 02:55:21.719
Bodies films almost invisible. So the very relaxed.

1677
02:55:24.959 --> 02:55:32.000
Paceful so.

1678
02:55:39.719 --> 02:55:40.280
Pace on.

1679
02:56:03.680 --> 02:56:43.520
Le so, and you could start to notice that you

1680
02:56:45.040 --> 02:56:56.319
are feeling more relaxed, even though I've not purposely focused

1681
02:56:56.760 --> 02:57:04.879
your mind upon that sense of physical comfort that is

1682
02:57:05.120 --> 02:57:14.360
growing within you throughout your body, and your mind starts

1683
02:57:14.440 --> 02:57:24.000
to slow down, And that could be almost in recognition

1684
02:57:24.600 --> 02:57:38.440
of I guess my speech not being particularly fast, and

1685
02:57:38.600 --> 02:57:49.479
things just generally feel calmer. Just by listening to my voice,

1686
02:57:52.559 --> 02:57:59.520
you give yourself an opportunity to take a break from

1687
02:57:59.559 --> 02:58:06.079
the day, take a break from your life as it is,

1688
02:58:09.520 --> 02:58:17.120
and to give yourself a rest, giving yourself permission to

1689
02:58:17.239 --> 02:58:22.479
take some time off, and to allow your body to

1690
02:58:22.639 --> 02:58:32.319
relax and allow your mind to slow down, which in

1691
02:58:32.479 --> 02:58:40.360
turn releases the tension any stresses that you had in

1692
02:58:40.479 --> 02:58:50.280
your body. It's almost as if the parts of your

1693
02:58:50.319 --> 02:59:02.360
body just open up, allowing the negativity out and at

1694
02:59:02.399 --> 02:59:10.639
the same time replacing that negativity with positive healing energy,

1695
02:59:13.760 --> 02:59:18.319
which then fills your body up and your mind to

1696
02:59:20.000 --> 02:59:38.399
also starts to appreciate those feelings of increasing confidence, an

1697
02:59:38.440 --> 02:59:55.559
almost uplifting feeling, positive healing, an energy that spreads through

1698
02:59:55.639 --> 02:59:58.319
your body like a wave.

1699
03:00:00.280 --> 03:00:13.000
Of comfort. And all this comes from just allowing yourself.

1700
03:00:15.239 --> 03:00:20.440
A few minutes, maybe half an hour, however long you

1701
03:00:20.559 --> 03:00:24.680
want it to be, to just rest.

1702
03:00:29.799 --> 03:00:30.799
And allow.

1703
03:00:32.959 --> 03:00:42.920
Your mind and your body to almost reset itself to

1704
03:00:43.079 --> 03:00:59.239
the settings of comfort and relaxation, calmness, which allows more

1705
03:00:59.360 --> 03:01:12.760
room for feelings of pleasure and happiness to move around

1706
03:01:13.079 --> 03:01:21.280
your body and into your mind, almost as if your

1707
03:01:21.440 --> 03:01:31.959
mind and your body are sinking together, almost mirroring each

1708
03:01:32.200 --> 03:01:45.520
other with that growing positivity and calmness. And it feels nice,

1709
03:01:48.159 --> 03:01:54.040
really does feel nice to know that you are the

1710
03:01:54.159 --> 03:02:07.479
one that has allowed yourself to feel more comfort and

1711
03:02:07.719 --> 03:02:10.319
to experience.

1712
03:02:12.040 --> 03:02:13.159
More of this.

1713
03:02:14.959 --> 03:02:21.559
Deep relaxation spreading throughout your body.

1714
03:02:28.559 --> 03:02:30.639
And as I focus.

1715
03:02:31.680 --> 03:02:37.440
On each part of your body, you can notice that

1716
03:02:37.680 --> 03:02:52.159
that part becomes even more relaxed just by focusing on it.

1717
03:02:54.719 --> 03:03:02.959
It becomes even more calm and comfort the law just

1718
03:03:03.360 --> 03:03:12.799
by focusing and as I move down your body, starting

1719
03:03:13.440 --> 03:03:19.559
at your head, the parts that you have already focused

1720
03:03:19.639 --> 03:03:29.079
on or continue to relax deeply, and those parts that

1721
03:03:29.239 --> 03:03:40.879
have not yet focused on or just automatically release any

1722
03:03:41.319 --> 03:03:55.559
remain intention in anticipation of even more comfort about to come. Now,

1723
03:03:57.959 --> 03:04:04.639
I'm and start by focusing on your forehead, just being

1724
03:04:04.760 --> 03:04:14.159
aware of the feelings of your forehead and any background sounds.

1725
03:04:15.920 --> 03:04:21.280
But mister Herbert Opigeon can just allow you to feel

1726
03:04:21.399 --> 03:04:31.399
even more relaxed. Just means you in the moment, this

1727
03:04:31.559 --> 03:04:34.360
isn't this isn't a sterile environment.

1728
03:04:35.719 --> 03:04:36.680
This is the world.

1729
03:04:40.159 --> 03:04:46.200
I live in the countryside, so there's lots of nature

1730
03:04:46.719 --> 03:04:57.200
sounds around. So as you focus on your forehead, just

1731
03:04:57.479 --> 03:05:05.239
notice how it becomes even more relaxed as you focus

1732
03:05:07.559 --> 03:05:12.040
only on my voice and that part of your body.

1733
03:05:17.239 --> 03:05:25.520
Moving down to your eyes, focusing on your eyes, noticing

1734
03:05:28.000 --> 03:05:37.680
how your eyelids feel so heavy yet so light at

1735
03:05:37.719 --> 03:05:45.799
the same time, and all the muscles around your eyes relaxing.

1736
03:05:47.040 --> 03:05:54.159
Completely. Moving your focus.

1737
03:05:55.200 --> 03:06:01.840
Down to your mouth, your lips, your tongue, your teeth,

1738
03:06:02.079 --> 03:06:03.120
you comes.

1739
03:06:05.120 --> 03:06:06.920
The whole of your mouth.

1740
03:06:08.479 --> 03:06:13.399
Relaxing, calm.

1741
03:06:14.600 --> 03:06:26.399
And glase as you focus now on your jawl just

1742
03:06:27.399 --> 03:06:31.079
the parts of your jaw near your mouth and your chin,

1743
03:06:32.360 --> 03:06:35.440
but all the way up the size of your face

1744
03:06:36.639 --> 03:06:49.040
to your ears, the hole of your jaw feeding more

1745
03:06:49.879 --> 03:07:11.879
relaxed and calm. Focusing on your neck, the front of

1746
03:07:11.959 --> 03:07:20.479
your neck and your throat relaxing and loose and calm.

1747
03:07:24.639 --> 03:07:30.680
The sides of your neck, right and left side of

1748
03:07:30.799 --> 03:07:49.280
your neck relax and loose and calm. And now the

1749
03:07:49.559 --> 03:07:56.639
back of your neck, focusing on the back of your neck,

1750
03:08:02.600 --> 03:08:07.799
letting go of any tension that may have been there before,

1751
03:08:09.639 --> 03:08:20.879
and enjoying that sense of increasing comfort and release.

1752
03:08:23.639 --> 03:08:24.440
Then you can.

1753
03:08:24.440 --> 03:08:35.559
Experience in the back of your neck, moving down your

1754
03:08:35.680 --> 03:08:43.000
back and moving either side of your spine right from

1755
03:08:43.040 --> 03:08:48.399
the top of your back all the way down to

1756
03:08:48.520 --> 03:09:06.239
the bottom of your back down lower back. As you

1757
03:09:06.520 --> 03:09:13.840
move up and down your spine, you can feel the

1758
03:09:14.040 --> 03:09:29.079
muscles either side of your spine relaxing even more, and

1759
03:09:29.239 --> 03:09:37.040
as those muscles relax, that sense of comfort starts to spread.

1760
03:09:38.200 --> 03:09:42.280
Outwards from your spine.

1761
03:09:44.360 --> 03:09:51.440
Into both sides of your back, the top of your back,

1762
03:09:52.319 --> 03:09:58.879
the middle end your lower back, and as you scan.

1763
03:10:00.280 --> 03:10:08.079
Gently and slowly up and down your back. There's the

1764
03:10:08.239 --> 03:10:12.760
muscles in the top of your back relax.

1765
03:10:12.719 --> 03:10:20.319
And become looser. The muscles in the middle of your

1766
03:10:20.399 --> 03:10:27.799
back also seem to just almost divide from each other,

1767
03:10:28.799 --> 03:10:29.959
separating and.

1768
03:10:32.719 --> 03:10:34.040
Almost melting.

1769
03:10:39.840 --> 03:10:41.399
And in your lower back.

1770
03:10:44.920 --> 03:10:52.479
There seems to be an extra special feeling of comfort.

1771
03:10:57.760 --> 03:11:03.879
The spreads into your head, sit down your lower back,

1772
03:11:04.200 --> 03:11:12.159
into your hips, into the area where your cosix are,

1773
03:11:15.760 --> 03:11:22.520
and into your buttocks, and all those muscles that spread.

1774
03:11:24.680 --> 03:11:25.959
Bring your lower back.

1775
03:11:28.200 --> 03:11:40.440
Into your hip area, start to melt, start to really

1776
03:11:41.639 --> 03:11:52.479
let go, and you know where about to focus on

1777
03:11:52.639 --> 03:12:01.840
your shoulders. Your back and your spine will continue till

1778
03:12:01.920 --> 03:12:07.319
let go, continue.

1779
03:12:07.120 --> 03:12:08.639
To relax.

1780
03:12:11.600 --> 03:12:15.760
So calmly.

1781
03:12:19.840 --> 03:12:25.440
And she focus on your shoulders. You may notice they're

1782
03:12:25.680 --> 03:12:56.600
already feeling really loose. They're already feeding come the feeling.

1783
03:13:00.840 --> 03:13:09.120
Those muscles then move from your neck into your shoulders.

1784
03:13:15.719 --> 03:13:45.079
Feel so soft and gentle, so smooth and calm, and

1785
03:13:45.319 --> 03:13:58.159
the feeling in your shoulders seems to spread deep into

1786
03:13:58.239 --> 03:14:08.639
your shoulders. That sense of relaxation not just traveling deeply

1787
03:14:09.040 --> 03:14:26.040
into your muscles, but also relaxing the bones and moving

1788
03:14:26.120 --> 03:14:34.399
all the way to underneath your arms. Relaxing a whole

1789
03:14:34.600 --> 03:14:40.040
area between the tops of your shoulders and underneath your arms.

1790
03:14:44.360 --> 03:14:45.120
He then.

1791
03:14:50.319 --> 03:15:03.360
You feel so relaxed and comfortable in your shoulders, which

1792
03:15:03.600 --> 03:15:04.959
sense that's.

1793
03:15:06.680 --> 03:15:08.639
Deep healing.

1794
03:15:11.680 --> 03:15:26.719
Message into your arms. You may feel.

1795
03:15:28.200 --> 03:15:30.479
Almost as if your arms are not.

1796
03:15:30.600 --> 03:15:54.719
Even that because they so relaxed, so deeply relaxed, so calm.

1797
03:16:09.879 --> 03:16:16.879
So this.

1798
03:16:24.399 --> 03:16:42.120
That feels spreading all the way down your arms, two elbows, including.

1799
03:16:42.440 --> 03:16:43.840
Your elbows.

1800
03:16:53.200 --> 03:16:55.920
Circumfort spreads.

1801
03:17:00.120 --> 03:17:00.680

Everything. So I'm gonna start counting down now from twenty

1825
03:29:04.360 --> 03:29:12.520
down to one. You can imagine in a way, it's

1826
03:29:12.719 --> 03:29:18.840
like just walking down some steps and each step or

1827
03:29:19.000 --> 03:29:25.000
twenty steps, and each step represents a level of comfort.

1828
03:29:28.479 --> 03:29:31.440
Each step represents.

1829
03:29:33.200 --> 03:29:34.440
A deepening.

03:29:35.959 --> 03:29:47.200
Of that comfort, and the furthes you walk down those steps, the.

03:50:38.079 --> 03:50:55.120
Now, as you focus on your lines, You're gonna count

1840
03:50:55.239 --> 03:51:07.040
down from tenning down to one, focusing just on your eyes,

1841
03:51:10.799 --> 03:51:19.319
your eyelids, the muscles around your eyes, your eye walls themselves,

1842
03:51:20.840 --> 03:51:37.879
a whole area that makes up your eye. And as

1843
03:51:37.959 --> 03:51:46.280
we count down for ten down to one, whilst focus

1844
03:51:46.440 --> 03:52:01.440
in on your eyes, you become twice is relaxed with

1845
03:52:01.840 --> 03:52:10.600
each number counting down that you may find.

1846
03:52:14.399 --> 03:52:17.000
The all you want to do is just.

1847
03:52:19.000 --> 03:52:26.159
Drift off to sleep. And if that's what you want,

1848
03:52:29.200 --> 03:52:42.159
then just allow yourself to do that. Now, focusing on

1849
03:52:42.319 --> 03:52:45.639
your eyes, I'm going.

1850
03:52:45.559 --> 03:52:55.200
To begin counting down from ten down to one, right

1851
03:52:55.319 --> 03:54:05.760
now nine eight.

1852
03:54:59.040 --> 03:56:30.959
Seven us.

1853
03:57:03.000 --> 03:58:14.440
Five four.

1854
03:59:27.719 --> 04:01:22.639
Three US.

1855
04:02:01.840 --> 04:02:18.840
One. So counting down from ten to one.

1856
04:02:20.719 --> 04:02:23.440
Ten nine.

1857
04:02:24.840 --> 04:02:45.000
Eight seven six five four three two one.

1858
04:02:52.040 --> 04:02:54.920
And maybe that was a bit too quick in order

1859
04:02:55.000 --> 04:02:58.879
to relax. Maybe it's a bit too fast for you

1860
04:02:59.120 --> 04:03:08.920
to notice the calming of your body, maybe even a

1861
04:03:09.000 --> 04:03:10.399
little bit of pressure there.

1862
04:03:10.399 --> 04:03:13.920
Like you're counting down from ten to one. Would you

1863
04:03:14.079 --> 04:03:15.079
expect me to do?

1864
04:03:15.399 --> 04:03:20.000
Man, expect me to stick go with floppy just because

1865
04:03:20.000 --> 04:03:21.040
you're counting down.

1866
04:03:26.639 --> 04:03:29.959
I can try it again, but this time I'll go

1867
04:03:30.000 --> 04:03:31.159
a bit slower.

1868
04:03:33.000 --> 04:03:37.840
This time, as you focus on the whole of your

1869
04:03:37.879 --> 04:03:41.360
body before we focus on your legs.

1870
04:03:43.799 --> 04:03:44.879
Just notice.

1871
04:03:46.079 --> 04:04:00.440
How your body does start to feel more relaxed every

1872
04:04:00.600 --> 04:04:33.959
number that I count down ten nine, eight seven, six.

1873
04:04:42.079 --> 04:04:53.280
Five four.

1874
04:05:00.479 --> 04:05:35.639
Three one.

1875
04:05:47.000 --> 04:05:52.680
I just notice how how you feel, generally, how your

1876
04:05:52.719 --> 04:05:53.440
body feels.

1877
04:06:00.120 --> 04:06:08.399
It's not necessarily even about counting down from ten to one.

1878
04:06:11.360 --> 04:06:29.239
It's that space that you have, that space between being active.

1879
04:06:31.159 --> 04:06:41.479
Physically or mentally, just sitting or lying down, just being there,

1880
04:06:42.200 --> 04:06:43.440
not doing.

1881
04:06:43.239 --> 04:06:48.600
Anything, not saying anything, or needing to think about anything.

1882
04:06:50.440 --> 04:06:54.079
So it opens up a space, you know, a bit

1883
04:06:54.159 --> 04:07:04.920
of a space, a gap. And the more I came

1884
04:07:05.040 --> 04:07:09.600
down from ten to one, the bigger that gap becomes.

1885
04:07:12.600 --> 04:07:19.000
So there's that gap of calmness, of comfort, relaxation.

1886
04:07:24.959 --> 04:07:26.360
It's a nice feeling.

1887
04:07:31.559 --> 04:07:41.680
And it moves those stresses or discomforts physically or emotionally moves.

1888
04:07:43.559 --> 04:07:51.680
Away. Allows you.

1889
04:07:54.399 --> 04:07:54.920
To just.

1890
04:07:57.920 --> 04:08:04.239
Slow down, someone to count a game from ten down

1891
04:08:04.280 --> 04:08:14.239
to one and notice that gap widening, the gap, And

1892
04:08:14.360 --> 04:08:19.360
as it widens, it's almost like the stress and attention

1893
04:08:20.239 --> 04:08:39.319
falls into the gap and gives you that distance, that space.

1894
04:08:41.719 --> 04:08:47.159
Now ten.

1895
04:08:51.520 --> 04:09:42.840
Nine, eight, seven, six, five, four.

1896
04:10:00.959 --> 04:10:18.000
Three two.

1897
04:10:36.280 --> 04:10:36.520
One.

1898
04:10:48.360 --> 04:11:09.520
How did your body feel? Can you notice that? Do

1899
04:11:09.639 --> 04:11:23.520
you feeling calmer, the feeling more relaxed.

1900
04:11:46.000 --> 04:11:50.319
As we now focus on your legs, just your legs.

1901
04:12:06.360 --> 04:12:26.479
You're just gonna start with focusing on your thighs. Of course,

1902
04:12:26.600 --> 04:12:31.479
it's not the most exciting thing to be doing, because

1903
04:12:34.920 --> 04:12:37.559
I'm sure like most of your body is not a

1904
04:12:37.719 --> 04:12:50.120
lot going on right now. Just focusing on the whole

1905
04:12:50.239 --> 04:12:56.600
of your thighs, the tops of your thighs, the sides

1906
04:12:56.799 --> 04:13:03.760
of your fighs, bottoms of your thighs, your outer thighs,

1907
04:13:03.879 --> 04:13:09.000
and your inner thighs. Basically the whole of your thigh that.

1908
04:13:09.200 --> 04:13:18.239
Leads into your hip and it goes down to your.

1909
04:13:20.159 --> 04:13:20.840
Knee joints.

1910
04:13:26.000 --> 04:13:33.200
Now, this is a big area, it's a very heavy area.

1911
04:13:33.719 --> 04:13:39.680
It's very strong, probably the strongest muscles in your body

1912
04:13:40.440 --> 04:13:41.280
or in your thighs.

1913
04:13:51.479 --> 04:13:57.719
But I don't think we perhaps will give enough attention

1914
04:13:59.159 --> 04:14:00.040
to our thigh.

1915
04:14:05.920 --> 04:14:13.559
Perhaps we don't and acknowledge how important our thighs are

1916
04:14:16.639 --> 04:14:33.440
to our lives, how much they actually do for us

1917
04:14:37.319 --> 04:14:48.040
all through our lives. And it may seem sound really weird,

1918
04:14:48.159 --> 04:14:56.520
but I think that all of our body parts, especially

1919
04:14:56.639 --> 04:15:04.319
our thighs, need some TLC, a bit of love shown,

1920
04:15:05.280 --> 04:15:23.479
a bit of the acknowledgement, thank you, gratitude for our

1921
04:15:23.639 --> 04:15:32.959
thighs do for us. And I know this may sound

1922
04:15:33.040 --> 04:15:39.280
a bit strange. Maybe you think, why am I sure

1923
04:15:39.360 --> 04:15:41.879
that I should be out in the garden hugging a

1924
04:15:42.040 --> 04:15:50.399
tree or something. Wow, it's hard to set a microphone

1925
04:15:50.479 --> 04:15:53.479
up on a tree. That's why I'm doing this indoors.

1926
04:15:53.559 --> 04:15:57.360
Otherwise I would be outside hugging a tree. I can't

1927
04:15:57.360 --> 04:16:06.159
see the television from the tree. If you move down

1928
04:16:06.200 --> 04:16:15.959
to your knees, gain such an important part. And I

1929
04:16:16.079 --> 04:16:22.879
think we don't necessarily I'll speak for myself here, I

1930
04:16:23.000 --> 04:16:28.120
don't necessarily appreciate all that my needs do for me

1931
04:16:29.399 --> 04:16:34.559
until I have a problem with my knee. It's occasionally

1932
04:16:34.600 --> 04:16:39.600
if I ever maybe i'll bash it, or it's aching

1933
04:16:39.760 --> 04:16:46.120
for some reason. It's then that I realize how much

1934
04:16:46.280 --> 04:16:49.920
it does. You know, the benefit of being able to

1935
04:16:50.840 --> 04:16:59.159
use my legs without any kind of physical discomfort.

1936
04:17:00.159 --> 04:17:01.879
Is a beautiful thing.

1937
04:17:03.280 --> 04:17:10.920
That's possibly not appreciated until it's temporarily removed. You know

1938
04:17:11.079 --> 04:17:20.559
that's comfort. But as you focus on your knees, regardless

1939
04:17:20.600 --> 04:17:26.159
of how your knees feel, you can have that sense

1940
04:17:26.239 --> 04:17:32.159
of gratitude and love to your knees for all that

1941
04:17:32.280 --> 04:17:44.520
they do for you, and you can still have that

1942
04:17:44.680 --> 04:17:49.600
attention on your thighs. Maybe notice how your thighs feel,

1943
04:17:51.760 --> 04:18:09.719
Maybe you notice that they are relaxing more deeply as

1944
04:18:09.760 --> 04:18:14.639
you focus now on the bottoms of your legs, your

1945
04:18:14.719 --> 04:18:21.600
shins and your calf muscles, the bones between your knees

1946
04:18:22.479 --> 04:18:30.200
and your feet incorporate, and of course your ankles so important.

1947
04:18:35.920 --> 04:18:40.479
Anyone that's had even there, like the slightest sprain of

1948
04:18:40.559 --> 04:18:43.239
an ankle knows how.

1949
04:18:44.719 --> 04:18:48.840
How much we take our ankles for granted.

1950
04:18:54.719 --> 04:18:56.719
And it's kind of strange in a way when you

1951
04:18:56.840 --> 04:19:02.440
think that you know logically our wrists are a lot

1952
04:19:02.600 --> 04:19:07.399
thinner than the rest of our arms, which is okay,

1953
04:19:07.520 --> 04:19:11.399
it doesn't can't see any problem with that because we're

1954
04:19:11.479 --> 04:19:12.639
just picking stuff up.

1955
04:19:14.120 --> 04:19:15.600
By our ankles.

1956
04:19:16.840 --> 04:19:26.760
So much thinner than the rest of our legs, and

1957
04:19:26.920 --> 04:19:31.399
from a physics perspective or logical even it doesn't really

1958
04:19:31.520 --> 04:19:38.760
make sense that all this weight would ultimately be resting

1959
04:19:39.799 --> 04:19:49.760
on your ankles then leading to your feet that thin area,

1960
04:19:51.239 --> 04:19:57.879
thin bone. Yeah, it does so much great work.

1961
04:20:00.079 --> 04:20:02.000
Supports us, supports.

1962
04:20:01.600 --> 04:20:13.159
Our body for a lifetime, helps us to balance, It

1963
04:20:13.319 --> 04:20:13.959
helps you to.

1964
04:20:17.920 --> 04:20:27.159
Get around and be mobile. And there's the calf muscles.

1965
04:20:27.200 --> 04:20:34.799
Of course, when I was younger, I couldn't see the

1966
04:20:34.879 --> 04:20:36.079
point in calf muscles.

1967
04:20:36.959 --> 04:20:41.840
Didn't seem to do anything. Okay, if I walked around

1968
04:20:41.879 --> 04:20:44.399
on tiptoes, then my calf.

1969
04:20:44.239 --> 04:20:48.000
Muscles get some work. But of course that's not true.

1970
04:20:48.159 --> 04:20:52.719
The calf muscles are being used whenever we use our legs,

1971
04:20:58.319 --> 04:21:10.920
and your shins there to protect your lower legs, shaped

1972
04:21:10.959 --> 04:21:15.680
in a way almost as a protector for the bone,

1973
04:21:23.280 --> 04:21:26.879
leading of course to your ankles.

1974
04:21:29.760 --> 04:21:36.319
And your feet. But we're not going to focus on

1975
04:21:36.440 --> 04:21:38.520
your feet. We're just going to focus on the legs.

1976
04:21:40.600 --> 04:21:41.840
I realize.

1977
04:21:43.360 --> 04:21:47.079
And now that I've mentioned your feet, you'll probably focus

1978
04:21:47.360 --> 04:21:50.600
among them anyway, So maybe I should focus on your

1979
04:21:50.639 --> 04:21:56.479
feet a little bit. You can have them in your

1980
04:21:56.520 --> 04:22:02.120
awareness the same as you you have your thighs in

1981
04:22:02.239 --> 04:22:06.639
your awareness. Even though we haven't been focusing on your

1982
04:22:06.760 --> 04:22:12.719
thighs for a few minutes and we're focusing on your ankles,

1983
04:22:18.399 --> 04:22:21.360
there's still that sensation of.

1984
04:22:24.559 --> 04:22:37.639
Comfort in your thighs, and there's that movement of energy.

1985
04:22:39.360 --> 04:22:46.399
Because the thighs hold lots of different sensations. Of course,

1986
04:22:46.479 --> 04:22:51.239
there's the muscles, the big strong muscles that we have

1987
04:22:51.440 --> 04:23:04.760
in our thighs, but the skin on the outside of

1988
04:23:04.879 --> 04:23:10.159
the thighs, as in the outside of all of our body,

1989
04:23:10.959 --> 04:23:22.559
can be very sensitive, sensitive to the touch, sensitive to temperature,

1990
04:23:29.120 --> 04:23:36.639
and inside your thighs the bones, there's the muscle, there's

1991
04:23:36.680 --> 04:23:41.799
the blood, vessels, the arch trees, all this stuff that's

1992
04:23:42.040 --> 04:23:43.680
inside your thighs.

1993
04:23:48.120 --> 04:23:50.920
I guess sometimes it'd be nice.

1994
04:23:50.719 --> 04:23:55.040
If you could actually put your fingers inside your thighs

1995
04:23:55.639 --> 04:24:00.840
and a message, so you can message on the outside,

1996
04:24:01.000 --> 04:24:04.000
of course, and to be able to get deep into

1997
04:24:04.079 --> 04:24:09.559
the muscles, to be able to just massage inside your thighs,

1998
04:24:10.399 --> 04:24:13.399
message in the bones of your leg.

1999
04:24:15.440 --> 04:24:16.120
Massage in.

2000
04:24:18.799 --> 04:24:29.680
Or the veins, just gently healing your thighs. You can

2001
04:24:29.840 --> 04:24:36.760
move down message and inside your knees, just message in

2002
04:24:36.879 --> 04:24:44.479
those bones, but with healing fingertips, spreading that healing energy.

2003
04:24:45.000 --> 04:24:54.799
Deep into the choice your knees. Of course, there's the

2004
04:24:54.920 --> 04:24:57.360
back of your you need.

2005
04:24:57.799 --> 04:25:05.000
The inside crease we need is it's a very sensitive area.

2006
04:25:07.000 --> 04:25:11.319
Very it feels very nice when you stroke it. That

2007
04:25:11.520 --> 04:25:15.200
might be because it's an area that's not really touched

2008
04:25:15.399 --> 04:25:21.959
very often. It's almost like a hidden part, that crease

2009
04:25:24.079 --> 04:25:24.799
on your legs.

2010
04:25:24.920 --> 04:25:25.879
It's almost.

2011
04:25:27.840 --> 04:25:28.600
Like a part that.

2012
04:25:30.360 --> 04:25:41.600
Has a sensitivity which is a little bit different. Of course,

2013
04:25:41.680 --> 04:25:52.159
it's protected by your legs. So you can imagine putting

2014
04:25:53.040 --> 04:26:03.360
your fingers into that crease in your legs, folding between

2015
04:26:03.440 --> 04:26:08.559
your legs. You can just message with your fingertips. Imagine

2016
04:26:08.559 --> 04:26:14.920
your fingertips going inside, Massage in the muscle or tissue

2017
04:26:19.520 --> 04:26:25.719
you can cause field the bones of your knees, healing

2018
04:26:25.959 --> 04:26:38.879
through your fingertips and unless you go down to your

2019
04:26:38.959 --> 04:26:41.639
calf muscles, and that's the part I'd like to be

2020
04:26:41.680 --> 04:26:48.040
able to really put my fingertips step inside my calf muscles,

2021
04:26:49.520 --> 04:26:59.319
massage in every single tissue of the muscle, healing every part,

2022
04:27:05.239 --> 04:27:06.040
and then doing the.

2023
04:27:06.159 --> 04:27:07.399
Same for my shines.

2024
04:27:10.600 --> 04:27:19.079
Massage generally, stroking the bones, generally stroking them, healing in

2025
04:27:19.159 --> 04:27:26.360
a loving way, because they deserve to be treated as

2026
04:27:26.440 --> 04:27:30.440
the precious bones that they are. Because our legs are

2027
04:27:30.520 --> 04:27:34.280
so precious as in all the other parts of our body,

2028
04:27:36.799 --> 04:27:37.239
the more.

2029
04:27:37.200 --> 04:27:51.319
Precious of any chub on the planet. When you start

2030
04:27:51.479 --> 04:27:54.000
to think about.

2031
04:27:57.079 --> 04:28:05.920
Your legs in this way, you can change your perspective.

2032
04:28:08.639 --> 04:28:14.360
In my sound a bit, a bit silly to start

2033
04:28:14.479 --> 04:28:21.239
with the idea of having love for your legs, showing

2034
04:28:21.319 --> 04:28:29.520
appreciation for your thighs, wanting to be able to put

2035
04:28:29.559 --> 04:28:38.120
your hands in your thighs, massage the muscles and the bones,

2036
04:28:39.959 --> 04:28:45.680
and to get your fingers deep in there, releasing all tension,

2037
04:28:48.600 --> 04:28:57.200
just to show how much you care about your legs,

2038
04:28:58.120 --> 04:29:01.840
how much you care for what your legs do for

2039
04:29:01.959 --> 04:29:15.600
you regularly, your needs, your calves, your ankles, the strength

2040
04:29:15.760 --> 04:29:23.799
of your ankles consideringly, how thin they are compared to

2041
04:29:23.920 --> 04:29:26.360
the rest of your legs, especially your thighs.

2042
04:29:30.159 --> 04:29:33.360
Yeah, they're so strong, so.

2043
04:29:33.600 --> 04:29:40.399
Flexible, absolutely amazing things.

2044
04:29:41.680 --> 04:29:51.319
Your ankles are truly a gift because of what they

2045
04:29:51.479 --> 04:29:59.600
do for you, supporting all that weight.

2046
04:30:01.600 --> 04:30:06.040
Regardless of how what weight you are, even if you

2047
04:30:06.120 --> 04:30:11.159
only ate stone, there's still a lot of weight for

2048
04:30:11.280 --> 04:30:12.719
these little ankles.

2049
04:30:16.399 --> 04:30:20.360
How am I a lot heavier than eight stone? Double

2050
04:30:20.440 --> 04:30:29.159
dock get My ankles support my body all the time.

2051
04:30:32.920 --> 04:30:33.520
Whether they do.

2052
04:30:34.319 --> 04:30:36.600
Give off a sigh of relief when I sit down.

2053
04:30:38.920 --> 04:30:47.399
That's I've had my whole legs to my feet Feele circo.

2054
04:30:49.280 --> 04:30:52.079
My toes clap so happy.

2055
04:31:11.879 --> 04:31:12.879
Your legs.

2056
04:31:14.440 --> 04:31:22.280
Really are amazing. And I know they're talking about. Talking

2057
04:31:22.319 --> 04:31:24.200
about your legs is probably.

2058
04:31:26.399 --> 04:31:30.200
Possibly one of the most most boring things you've ever

2059
04:31:30.879 --> 04:31:39.159
heard anyone say. Possibly you're boring or not. Everything I

2060
04:31:39.319 --> 04:31:55.200
said is true. Your legs are amazing. Your legs deserve

2061
04:31:56.280 --> 04:32:06.879
not just respect, They deserve to relax deeply.

2062
04:32:14.159 --> 04:32:17.479
They deserve to take some time out of the day

2063
04:32:19.719 --> 04:32:48.959
to just lecker completely. The legs really can relax.

2064
04:32:56.239 --> 04:33:00.200
Because the legs are so such a most you know,

2065
04:33:00.440 --> 04:33:06.360
very important part of your body. When your relax relegs,

2066
04:33:06.479 --> 04:33:13.680
the rest of your body also naturally follows in that

2067
04:33:17.439 --> 04:33:28.240
journey of comfort. Like I feel it in my hips.

2068
04:33:29.639 --> 04:33:36.240
My hips feel really loose, and also.

2069
04:33:36.080 --> 04:33:37.200
My lower back as well.

2070
04:33:39.240 --> 04:33:44.959
My lower back really feels it feels stretched, even though

2071
04:33:45.000 --> 04:33:49.240
I'm just sitting in a chair and there's no stretching.

2072
04:33:51.360 --> 04:33:52.959
As far as I'm aware that I'm doing.

2073
04:33:53.959 --> 04:33:56.639
It's almost as if the muscles it just relaxed so

2074
04:33:56.880 --> 04:34:02.759
much that there is a natural wretch as a tension

2075
04:34:03.639 --> 04:34:07.400
has reduced a lot.

2076
04:34:23.759 --> 04:34:27.279
And I'm now going to count down from ten downs one.

2077
04:34:31.840 --> 04:34:33.520
You can continue.

2078
04:34:34.720 --> 04:35:00.959
To film wonderfully relaxed ten nine eight seven six, five

2079
04:35:05.639 --> 04:35:09.720
four three.

2080
04:35:13.599 --> 04:35:34.360
Two. Why relax? So I'm just going to count down

2081
04:35:35.880 --> 04:35:40.560
from five down to one, and as a countdown, if

2082
04:35:40.599 --> 04:35:47.680
you just focus on the numbers, just the numbers counting down,

2083
04:35:48.759 --> 04:35:52.639
and notice how you feel.

2084
04:35:55.000 --> 04:35:56.159
In this moment.

2085
04:35:57.599 --> 04:36:02.000
As you hear the numbers counting down, knowing that those

2086
04:36:02.159 --> 04:36:15.200
numbers counting down represent you feeling calmer, not just in

2087
04:36:15.319 --> 04:36:19.919
your body, but also relaxing your mind.

2088
04:36:22.759 --> 04:36:24.319
You just notice how you feel.

2089
04:36:25.200 --> 04:36:31.119
There's nothing to do, there's nothing to say, there's nothing

2090
04:36:31.240 --> 04:36:36.400
to think about, starting with.

2091
04:36:37.840 --> 04:36:47.680
Number five, four.

2092
04:36:57.000 --> 04:37:07.919
Three to.

2093
04:37:14.040 --> 04:37:30.119
One. How as you notice the gradual.

2094
04:37:32.400 --> 04:37:32.959
Letting go.

2095
04:37:35.520 --> 04:37:42.639
The tension in your body, you may also begin to

2096
04:37:42.919 --> 04:37:50.200
notice and be aware of how your mind is starting

2097
04:37:50.639 --> 04:37:58.599
to slow down. This is just a natural thing that happens.

2098
04:38:01.240 --> 04:38:03.720
It's not really a special procedure.

2099
04:38:05.040 --> 04:38:10.200
It's just natural because is your body relaxes, your mind

2100
04:38:10.319 --> 04:38:16.080
also starts to relax, and the more your mind relaxes,

2101
04:38:16.200 --> 04:38:20.799
the more your body relaxes. It's just a continuous circle

2102
04:38:20.919 --> 04:38:31.639
of relaxation. And there's that calmness that comes from.

2103
04:38:33.439 --> 04:38:34.599
Relative quietness.

2104
04:38:36.200 --> 04:38:41.080
You know, even even if there's background sounds, even your

2105
04:38:41.279 --> 04:38:49.639
side online, it's still going to be quite calm. You know,

2106
04:38:49.720 --> 04:38:54.360
you haven't got the television on, there's no music in

2107
04:38:54.479 --> 04:38:57.279
the background, unless you're listening to the recorded with music.

2108
04:38:57.400 --> 04:39:04.639
Of course, you're very likely not going to be sitting

2109
04:39:04.639 --> 04:39:07.840
in a room with other people. Of course you might be,

2110
04:39:08.000 --> 04:39:11.919
but generally it's more ideal if.

2111
04:39:11.799 --> 04:39:16.599
You can do this on your own, so no distractions,

2112
04:39:22.799 --> 04:39:35.759
and when you stop thinking about stuff, relaxation automatically rises.

2113
04:39:38.119 --> 04:39:48.840
A sense of comfort starts to grow, and without trying

2114
04:39:48.919 --> 04:39:57.799
to build it up into something fantastical or something magical,

2115
04:40:00.000 --> 04:40:07.439
this is just a natural process, something that's easy.

2116
04:40:09.439 --> 04:40:10.119
To accomplish.

2117
04:40:12.919 --> 04:40:20.279
In fact, it's almost the sense of relaxing completely happens

2118
04:40:20.439 --> 04:40:25.200
really when you put no effort into it. It's not

2119
04:40:25.400 --> 04:40:32.520
something that you can really force. It's something that happens

2120
04:40:33.400 --> 04:40:44.439
naturally and part of the process of this recording and others.

2121
04:40:45.759 --> 04:40:57.720
Is simply two allow you to take advantage of this space.

2122
04:41:00.400 --> 04:41:14.439
Time to just let go, to just be here, to

2123
04:41:14.599 --> 04:41:28.080
be in tune with how you feel, yet with the

2124
04:41:28.240 --> 04:41:41.560
intention of wanting to relax deeply and maybe even to

2125
04:41:41.720 --> 04:41:47.319
fall asleep, depending on what it is that you wish

2126
04:41:48.000 --> 04:41:49.240
for yourself.

2127
04:41:50.479 --> 04:41:51.279
In this moment.

2128
04:41:58.279 --> 04:42:08.159
As we know, relax is the majority of the process.

2129
04:42:07.759 --> 04:42:08.759
Of fallen asleep.

2130
04:42:09.919 --> 04:42:13.799
The actual falling asleep part is the tiny bit at

2131
04:42:13.840 --> 04:42:26.200
the end. The deeper relaxed you become, the easier.

2132
04:42:28.759 --> 04:42:29.680
You find.

2133
04:42:30.959 --> 04:42:46.959
Yourself drifting. You can also, if you choose stay focused

2134
04:42:48.119 --> 04:43:12.840
on my voice and really enjoy the process corradually relaxing.

2135
04:43:16.400 --> 04:43:23.200
Each muscle in your body.

2136
04:43:27.959 --> 04:43:44.319
Effortlessly and just observing the sensation.

2137
04:43:49.000 --> 04:44:04.880
Of letting go completely. This time, I'm gonna count from

2138
04:44:05.119 --> 04:44:15.599
six down to one, and you can notice your mind.

2139
04:44:17.919 --> 04:44:31.319
Calming down more with each number that you hear me say, naturally,

2140
04:44:32.439 --> 04:46:07.000
feeling calm and slow to beeaceful sex, five, four, three,

2141
04:47:35.080 --> 04:47:51.479
being aware how you quite slowed right down, sinking deeply

2142
04:47:54.319 --> 04:47:56.439
into relaxation.

2143
04:48:09.439 --> 04:48:16.360
As you focus on your Why did I noticed that

2144
04:48:18.319 --> 04:48:26.080
there are some thoughts still there? Maybe some stubborn thoughts

2145
04:48:26.279 --> 04:48:41.560
that for some reason perhaps need your attention. That's what

2146
04:48:41.799 --> 04:48:55.000
you can do, said love to those thoughts. Sprinkle those

2147
04:48:55.240 --> 04:49:00.919
thoughts of love.

2148
04:49:02.439 --> 04:49:08.639
My door petals for my flower. Just sprinkle over petals

2149
04:49:08.680 --> 04:49:16.319
feel good love towards those thoughts, to let those thoughts smother.

2150
04:49:18.720 --> 04:49:24.200
You're not abandon the number. You just need them to

2151
04:49:24.360 --> 04:49:35.840
require them to just calm down, slow down, quiet down

2152
04:49:39.759 --> 04:49:51.560
and now so as you focus on those remaining thoughts

2153
04:49:52.799 --> 04:49:56.880
as a countdown this time from seven down to one.

2154
04:49:58.439 --> 04:50:14.840
With each number, just imagine sprinkling those flower petals of love, kindness, gratitude,

2155
04:50:17.919 --> 04:50:25.959
I love those thoughts, which will allow them to just

2156
04:50:27.400 --> 04:50:43.159
not away relax deeply. Every number, those thoughts will become

2157
04:50:43.360 --> 04:51:51.119
more and more relaxed. Starting with number Senner six four.

2158
04:53:31.080 --> 04:53:31.880
It is so.

2159
04:53:34.000 --> 04:53:53.439
Last your feeling in your buddy. We got to focus

2160
04:53:57.319 --> 04:53:58.360
on your hands.

2161
04:54:04.360 --> 04:54:12.319
It's the wor extra hands on the waxtra body and

2162
04:54:12.599 --> 04:54:34.159
my dog. Yes, you focus on my hands two fingers.

2163
04:54:39.720 --> 04:54:43.479
It's nothing that I needed to be done. It's like

2164
04:54:43.759 --> 04:54:56.720
clutching of fists of dens and the fingers right, it's

2165
04:54:57.000 --> 04:55:11.840
just like focus on your hands. I do sparely feel.

2166
04:55:26.200 --> 04:55:32.279
A kiss them maks. Your hands feel.

2167
04:55:35.479 --> 04:55:36.799
I can't by your.

2168
04:55:36.880 --> 04:56:07.599
Mind feels comforts you feel around your body? Y, I

2169
04:56:07.840 --> 04:56:25.080
taste fads starting.

2170
04:56:28.319 --> 04:57:04.680
True said just my hands as I am chexperience a

2171
04:57:04.919 --> 04:57:06.360
real deep.

2172
04:57:07.599 --> 04:57:10.279
With that reaxation.

2173
04:57:11.000 --> 04:57:24.360
In your heads, I guess more relaxed.

2174
04:57:29.000 --> 04:57:29.680
Fat, no.

2175
04:57:38.319 --> 04:57:38.680
Hate.

2176
