8
00:00:53.600 --> 00:01:00.759
boring objects now, Vinny, it's on the floor at the moment, Chew.

9
00:01:04.280 --> 00:01:05.959
I've put some food out for him and he's not

10
00:01:06.040 --> 00:01:08.439
touched it because it's not the food that he likes.

11
00:01:10.040 --> 00:01:13.000
You could argue, well, would you eat food you didn't like?

12
00:01:14.680 --> 00:01:24.159
It's a fair enough argument, but he used to like it. Well,

13
00:01:24.200 --> 00:01:27.079
if you've never gone off food, have you? You liked everything?

14
00:01:27.159 --> 00:01:29.159
You've always liked every single food I've ever had. You're

15
00:01:29.200 --> 00:01:32.280
never eating something then got fed up with it? Right, Okay,

16
00:01:32.680 --> 00:01:36.319
blind me calm down. Yeah, there have been things that

17
00:01:36.920 --> 00:01:44.719
I've overeaten. There was his biscuits once. Biscuits is going

18
00:01:44.760 --> 00:01:50.959
to be the subject today, by the way, biscuits. I'm

19
00:01:51.439 --> 00:01:53.519
I was gonna say I'm scraping a barrel, but I'm scrape.

20
00:01:53.560 --> 00:01:59.000
I'm scraping the biscuit tin for this one. Biscuits? How

21
00:01:59.000 --> 00:02:04.560
can I talk for an hour about biscuits. If anyone

22
00:02:04.560 --> 00:02:11.800
can do it, I can do it. I suppose biscuits. Well,

23
00:02:11.879 --> 00:02:14.879
the memory I just had was I used to visit

24
00:02:14.919 --> 00:02:18.879
my men. This is when she was alive and the

25
00:02:18.879 --> 00:02:23.280
best time to visit people I find. And she had these,

26
00:02:23.719 --> 00:02:28.520
Oh man, they were so nice. They were because in

27
00:02:28.560 --> 00:02:33.879
the early days before she kind of lost her mobility,

28
00:02:34.159 --> 00:02:39.800
she used to be making cakes. Are such nice cakes,

29
00:02:40.319 --> 00:02:45.120
especially the rock cakes. All the bestest rock cakes I've

30
00:02:45.120 --> 00:02:51.159
ever had in my life, still to this day. And

31
00:02:51.719 --> 00:02:54.879
they were just perfect, even if, to be fair, even

32
00:02:54.919 --> 00:02:59.360
if they were sometimes a bit burnt, it didn't matter.

33
00:02:59.439 --> 00:03:04.240
They were just effect. There were my Nanny Newland's rock

34
00:03:04.240 --> 00:03:07.840
cakes that was just however they were. I want to

35
00:03:07.840 --> 00:03:09.919
say burn, you know, because sometimes if you leave them

36
00:03:09.960 --> 00:03:11.879
in the oven a little bit too long. We know

37
00:03:11.960 --> 00:03:18.840
what burnt means. Am I going to have this? Are

38
00:03:18.840 --> 00:03:25.159
you going to be argumented? If the whole recording maybe right?

39
00:03:28.719 --> 00:03:31.639
Vinnie started barking there was a dog in the distance,

40
00:03:31.879 --> 00:03:36.400
well somewhere, I mean, what is distance and what is close?

41
00:03:38.439 --> 00:03:44.680
Talking about distancing close. I was in the park earlier

42
00:03:45.439 --> 00:03:48.800
and I thought I saw a couple of Dopeman's running

43
00:03:48.840 --> 00:03:55.439
towards me off the lead. So I was like, oh,

44
00:03:55.879 --> 00:03:58.319
but I got it wrong because I didn't have my

45
00:03:58.319 --> 00:04:00.639
glasses on. I just forgot to take my asses with me.

46
00:04:01.280 --> 00:04:03.159
And I realized I looked down at which is a

47
00:04:03.159 --> 00:04:06.400
couple of choo I was chill. I was was actually

48
00:04:06.599 --> 00:04:11.159
about two inches from my feet. They look exactly like

49
00:04:12.919 --> 00:04:23.399
they look the same as Doberman. Anyway, there's a few

50
00:04:23.560 --> 00:04:30.519
unfriendly dog walkers. There's like the friendly ones and then

51
00:04:30.519 --> 00:04:34.639
there's the ones that just almost don't want to interact,

52
00:04:35.079 --> 00:04:38.800
which is up to them, I know, but I've made

53
00:04:38.839 --> 00:04:40.879
the effort to be friendly if I can.

54
00:04:44.639 --> 00:04:45.079
I don't know.

55
00:04:46.480 --> 00:04:48.959
There's just some some dog walkers I like, they kind

56
00:04:49.000 --> 00:04:51.680
of pull the dog away from me, even I understand

57
00:04:51.680 --> 00:04:54.040
if it's a dangerous dog or you know, if it's

58
00:04:54.040 --> 00:04:56.160
a dangerous dogwise and not on a muzzle would be

59
00:04:56.240 --> 00:05:01.560
my question. But h strange, the strange old world. The

60
00:05:01.639 --> 00:05:08.920
dog dogg in and so this dog, I don't know,

61
00:05:10.040 --> 00:05:12.839
Vinnie was. He wasn't just barking, he was howling like

62
00:05:12.879 --> 00:05:17.240
a wolf. You know. His his face looking up to

63
00:05:17.279 --> 00:05:23.639
the sky. Oh oh, which he doesn't do very often.

64
00:05:24.959 --> 00:05:28.360
So it was very much a kind of a pack call.

65
00:05:30.240 --> 00:05:32.399
He was. It's definitely it was. There's something kind of

66
00:05:32.399 --> 00:05:39.439
communication going on there. I would say I had to

67
00:05:39.439 --> 00:05:42.519
shut him up because the neighbor downstairs is probably asleep.

68
00:05:43.079 --> 00:05:48.319
I don't want to disturbing the neighbors, especially as tomorrow

69
00:05:49.199 --> 00:05:57.000
the building works begins. Burn burn burm. Yeah. My neighbor

70
00:05:57.079 --> 00:06:02.720
opposite has his bathroom. It was bathroom is going to

71
00:06:02.720 --> 00:06:10.040
be rebuilt, so it's going to be noise noise, noise

72
00:06:10.360 --> 00:06:15.720
noise for it'll probably be full on for about a

73
00:06:15.800 --> 00:06:19.279
week while the rest of this week Tuesday to Friday,

74
00:06:20.319 --> 00:06:25.279
and then it will reduced a little bit after that.

75
00:06:25.600 --> 00:06:27.759
The first bit is I seem to dig up the concrete.

76
00:06:28.120 --> 00:06:32.000
I think digging up the bath is a proper like

77
00:06:32.120 --> 00:06:35.240
shakes the whole building. I'm not going to be able

78
00:06:35.279 --> 00:06:42.279
to make a recording when they're here, So I was thinking,

79
00:06:42.480 --> 00:06:50.560
maybe try and do the recordings today while it's relatively quiet.

80
00:06:51.959 --> 00:06:57.879
I mean, I was thinking, actually early on, I should

81
00:06:57.879 --> 00:07:02.000
make the most of it being quiet and relax, Maybe

82
00:07:02.000 --> 00:07:04.199
watch a couple of movies, you know, just have like

83
00:07:04.480 --> 00:07:12.399
a relaxing day where there's not noise, because guarantee what

84
00:07:12.600 --> 00:07:16.879
happens when there's noise in one flat, another neighbor would

85
00:07:16.920 --> 00:07:19.800
turn music on to cover up that noise for them,

86
00:07:20.600 --> 00:07:22.639
and then another neighbor would turn up to cover up

87
00:07:23.160 --> 00:07:26.120
the noise of that music, and before you know, it's

88
00:07:26.279 --> 00:07:35.480
like noisy, really noisy, and it's yeah, it's just human

89
00:07:35.560 --> 00:07:40.240
nature to do that. I mean, the most I would

90
00:07:40.240 --> 00:07:46.439
do is I put my headphones on so I can

91
00:07:46.519 --> 00:07:49.480
kind of block out the noise with my headphones. But

92
00:07:49.519 --> 00:07:51.519
it limits me to what I can do. I mean,

93
00:07:51.560 --> 00:07:53.439
I could listen to music, or I could watch TV

94
00:07:53.600 --> 00:07:59.600
and stuff, watch a movie. I'll probably just take this

95
00:07:59.639 --> 00:08:03.319
one out for a few long longer really said the

96
00:08:03.319 --> 00:08:08.480
word longer journeys tomorrow in it, so I can Tuesday

97
00:08:08.519 --> 00:08:13.399
and Wednesday will be the Tuesday Wednesday third, which is

98
00:08:14.120 --> 00:08:15.879
the next The rest of this week will be the

99
00:08:15.879 --> 00:08:23.240
most amount of disruption auditory wise. But then there's a

100
00:08:23.279 --> 00:08:25.680
lot of doors slamming. They're coming and going, and you know,

101
00:08:25.800 --> 00:08:31.319
so that that agitates the old vinster here, So I

102
00:08:31.319 --> 00:08:34.639
guess he'll be doing a bit of barking. So what

103
00:08:34.679 --> 00:08:36.519
I'll try and do is when they do get here.

104
00:08:38.559 --> 00:08:41.360
What I like to do. If there's builders coming into

105
00:08:41.399 --> 00:08:45.399
the building, I try and introduce Viny to them so

106
00:08:45.440 --> 00:08:48.000
then he knows who they are. Once he's met them,

107
00:08:48.600 --> 00:08:52.200
he doesn't seem so bothered. But if someone comes in

108
00:08:52.200 --> 00:08:54.440
and out of the building continuously and he hasn't seen

109
00:08:54.480 --> 00:08:57.159
them and he doesn't know who they are, it seems

110
00:08:57.159 --> 00:09:02.120
to irritate him a bit, don't it. What are you

111
00:09:02.120 --> 00:09:05.440
sniffing there for? There's nothing there? Trust me, well there is,

112
00:09:05.440 --> 00:09:17.519
but it's nothing, nothing interesting. Wow. Yeah, So my name

113
00:09:17.600 --> 00:09:19.879
got these biscuits. I can't evenmember what they were called,

114
00:09:20.159 --> 00:09:25.120
but there is super delicious. And she'd make a cup

115
00:09:25.120 --> 00:09:29.919
of tea, like you do know, I want to go around.

116
00:09:30.000 --> 00:09:31.720
She'd make a cup of tea. Sometimes i'd do it

117
00:09:31.759 --> 00:09:36.159
for you know, especially when she lived in the sheld accommodation.

118
00:09:36.799 --> 00:09:41.559
I'd make a cup of tea for her. I remember saying,

119
00:09:41.879 --> 00:09:43.720
I remember the first time made her a cup of tea.

120
00:09:44.480 --> 00:09:46.240
Which is going to sound weird, but I think the

121
00:09:46.279 --> 00:09:48.200
first time I ever made my name a cup of tea,

122
00:09:48.279 --> 00:09:53.559
I was in my forties. She always did it, you know,

123
00:09:54.159 --> 00:10:01.960
And I remember saying, how many sugars then six said

124
00:10:02.159 --> 00:10:08.360
six sugars of the tea, and being being British, being

125
00:10:08.440 --> 00:10:11.399
English or whatever I had, I had no choice but

126
00:10:11.519 --> 00:10:15.240
to say, oh, would you like some tea with your sugar?

127
00:10:17.600 --> 00:10:21.679
Because you know, all English people say that, and we

128
00:10:21.759 --> 00:10:26.679
find it hilarious every time we say it. Yes we do, Yes,

129
00:10:26.759 --> 00:10:33.759
we do viny yes. Starting another one is like when

130
00:10:33.799 --> 00:10:36.480
someone say in Hell, I won't say the actual word

131
00:10:36.600 --> 00:10:39.960
f in hell, and the comeback for that, being English

132
00:10:40.039 --> 00:10:46.840
is I hope so there's no TV there. It's what

133
00:10:46.879 --> 00:10:49.360
did I say? I heard radio DJ the other day

134
00:10:50.480 --> 00:10:55.720
moaning about pigeons. Now, if you follow me, you know

135
00:10:55.799 --> 00:10:57.919
that I'm a pigeon lover. Horace is one of my

136
00:10:57.960 --> 00:11:02.080
best friends. And here's a pigeon's visited me for ten years.

137
00:11:03.799 --> 00:11:08.360
It's weird. He looks younger now. Oh but and there's

138
00:11:08.360 --> 00:11:12.360
a different color. But you know, Horace like, I love pigeons.

139
00:11:12.399 --> 00:11:16.159
I always have done, even when as a little kid

140
00:11:17.879 --> 00:11:22.600
going to Trafalgar Square. That was this DJ. This radio

141
00:11:22.639 --> 00:11:28.279
presenter was moaning about pigeons, and he lives in London

142
00:11:29.840 --> 00:11:31.919
and he was saying, it's so good now that they

143
00:11:32.480 --> 00:11:38.360
the government or the London mayor at the time managed

144
00:11:38.399 --> 00:11:45.000
to get rid of those people selling I don't know,

145
00:11:45.120 --> 00:11:51.440
pigeons seed to the tourists in order to stop encouraging

146
00:11:51.480 --> 00:11:54.600
because I made it illegal to try and get rid

147
00:11:54.639 --> 00:12:00.320
of the pigeons from Trafalgar Square. What did they think

148
00:12:00.399 --> 00:12:07.200
Trafalgar Square was famous for around the world, those big statues.

149
00:12:07.399 --> 00:12:13.519
Maybe the pigeons. Yeah, as an experience, the statues don't

150
00:12:13.559 --> 00:12:18.360
do anything. They just stand there, and yeah, they mean something.

151
00:12:18.480 --> 00:12:20.519
I don't know what they are, but they mean something

152
00:12:21.080 --> 00:12:26.559
to people that are into that stuff historically. I mean,

153
00:12:29.559 --> 00:12:35.440
is is church. I don't even know what statues are

154
00:12:35.440 --> 00:12:39.000
in Trafalgar Square to be honest with you. I know

155
00:12:39.080 --> 00:12:41.759
there's a lion. There's a lion. Isn't there a big

156
00:12:41.759 --> 00:12:46.240
golden lion or silver lion or something like that? And

157
00:12:48.240 --> 00:12:51.360
I mean they are impressive, especially when you're a little kid, like, Wow,

158
00:12:51.440 --> 00:12:55.639
they're huge. How did they manage to fit them on there? God,

159
00:12:55.679 --> 00:12:59.360
whoever lifted that must have been super strong. Perhaps it

160
00:12:59.480 --> 00:13:05.440
was super Man. That's that's what Well, that's what my

161
00:13:05.480 --> 00:13:07.360
brothers were saying. I said, nope, it's a wonder Woman

162
00:13:07.519 --> 00:13:11.399
because I was obsessed with Wonder Woman back then, and

163
00:13:11.960 --> 00:13:16.360
I just you don't like. Actually, what do people take

164
00:13:16.440 --> 00:13:19.559
pictures of You can't take picture of you. I suppose

165
00:13:19.720 --> 00:13:24.320
if you're if you're far enough away from the statue,

166
00:13:24.360 --> 00:13:26.039
you can get a picture of you with the statue

167
00:13:26.039 --> 00:13:28.960
in the background. I guess, like the Eiffel Tower and

168
00:13:29.039 --> 00:13:31.639
things like that, which is just up the road, I think,

169
00:13:31.679 --> 00:13:36.480
I think that's in Leicester Square. And but what do

170
00:13:36.519 --> 00:13:39.519
people go home with when they've been to Like what

171
00:13:39.679 --> 00:13:43.159
back in those days, in the seventies, any eighties maybe,

172
00:13:43.639 --> 00:13:48.600
and probably decades before that, people took photographs of their

173
00:13:48.600 --> 00:13:53.200
holiday to London. There would be at least one photograph

174
00:13:53.200 --> 00:13:59.799
of them covered in pigeons. That's what Travalger Square was

175
00:13:59.799 --> 00:14:04.879
fair as far the pigeons, they got rid of it.

176
00:14:04.879 --> 00:14:12.720
They got rid of the pigeons, and I can't seem

177
00:14:12.759 --> 00:14:15.440
to let it go. It's weird. I didn't realize it

178
00:14:15.480 --> 00:14:19.279
affected me so much. I love the pigeons. One of

179
00:14:19.360 --> 00:14:28.240
my happiest memories as a child was apart from being

180
00:14:28.279 --> 00:14:34.639
on a rough Harry show, which was kind of that's

181
00:14:34.679 --> 00:14:38.600
a whole different. What are you doing. You're attacking me.

182
00:14:39.159 --> 00:14:42.120
I'm talking to Vinny there, not rof He. It's a

183
00:14:42.240 --> 00:14:45.000
bit yeah, I was on a rough Harry show. That

184
00:14:45.039 --> 00:14:47.000
wasn't a joke. I seriously was on a rough Harry

185
00:14:47.039 --> 00:14:51.639
show when I was about ten nine or ten, and

186
00:14:51.679 --> 00:14:56.120
it was one of the best days of my life, genuinely.

187
00:14:56.639 --> 00:15:03.240
And I would say there's thousands and thousands and thousands

188
00:15:03.279 --> 00:15:06.360
of other kids that would also say the same. Maybe

189
00:15:06.399 --> 00:15:08.200
not the best day of their life, but it was

190
00:15:08.240 --> 00:15:13.799
an amazing experience for most people that did it, because

191
00:15:13.840 --> 00:15:18.000
it was just I loved it. I got to see

192
00:15:18.080 --> 00:15:23.519
Keith Keith Harris with awful and cuddles, and I got

193
00:15:23.559 --> 00:15:25.759
to see Dollar, who were really big at the time

194
00:15:25.799 --> 00:15:28.440
as well. They were a group. I can't remember what

195
00:15:28.519 --> 00:15:37.879
song they sung. You can do something like that anyway.

196
00:15:37.879 --> 00:15:39.600
I've talked about that before, but that that is just

197
00:15:39.720 --> 00:15:43.279
you know. But one of the experiences I really enjoyed

198
00:15:43.399 --> 00:15:46.679
was it was in the children's home and it's a

199
00:15:46.679 --> 00:15:51.200
little period between moving in with my dad and his

200
00:15:51.279 --> 00:15:55.759
new wife, and so it was in South End. We're

201
00:15:55.799 --> 00:15:58.320
going to move in. I don't think we even knew

202
00:15:58.360 --> 00:15:59.919
we were going to move in, but we were visi

203
00:16:00.159 --> 00:16:05.240
in every weekend to I guess for them to get

204
00:16:05.279 --> 00:16:06.799
to know us and us to get to know them.

205
00:16:06.919 --> 00:16:10.120
And to see whether or not they wanted to. You know,

206
00:16:10.159 --> 00:16:12.960
it was a process. It wasn't just like here's your

207
00:16:13.039 --> 00:16:15.200
kids who haven't seen them for five years, take them.

208
00:16:15.720 --> 00:16:19.960
It was there was a process to it. And even then,

209
00:16:20.320 --> 00:16:27.200
this was like nineteen seventy seven. So we'd go every weekend,

210
00:16:27.320 --> 00:16:35.200
and then one weekend our auntie picked us up and

211
00:16:35.399 --> 00:16:38.480
she said, oh, you're going to come and stay with

212
00:16:38.559 --> 00:16:43.159
me in London because the step mum's unwell, she's got

213
00:16:44.600 --> 00:16:48.200
I don't know measles or mumps or something like that.

214
00:16:49.159 --> 00:16:52.559
I said, what you're talking about Willis, which is weird

215
00:16:52.600 --> 00:16:55.200
because I've never seen different strokes at that point, because

216
00:16:55.360 --> 00:16:58.200
it hadn't been on, didn't come on to about seventy nine.

217
00:17:00.480 --> 00:17:02.679
I'm wondering maybe they copied me because I used to

218
00:17:02.679 --> 00:17:05.359
say that all the time. We were talking about Williss,

219
00:17:05.839 --> 00:17:10.440
even when I was like five. I could be owed

220
00:17:10.440 --> 00:17:17.160
some money royalties And she said, my name is not Willis,

221
00:17:17.200 --> 00:17:20.359
called me Auntie. I said, I don't know if I've

222
00:17:20.319 --> 00:17:23.519
really known you long enough to call you Auntie. How

223
00:17:23.559 --> 00:17:26.480
do I know you're really my auntie? You know you

224
00:17:26.799 --> 00:17:30.880
you just turn up out of the blue. I've met

225
00:17:30.880 --> 00:17:34.319
you a couple of times, submittedly, because you know, because

226
00:17:34.559 --> 00:17:36.119
there was that whole thing, you know, when we went

227
00:17:36.160 --> 00:17:41.960
around it was like I felt like I was in

228
00:17:42.000 --> 00:17:47.119
a zoo. When we went to visit my dad, Will

229
00:17:47.119 --> 00:17:49.039
he come and picked us up, took us back to

230
00:17:49.160 --> 00:17:52.279
where he lived with his wife and his wife's mum.

231
00:17:52.680 --> 00:17:57.720
They lived in her house, and all these people came along,

232
00:17:57.799 --> 00:18:01.480
like and his uncles and aunts and people I've never

233
00:18:01.559 --> 00:18:09.039
seen before. Like I'm your uncle. Really, I'm your uncle

234
00:18:09.079 --> 00:18:17.839
as well. Really I'm your auntie really, like you know,

235
00:18:17.880 --> 00:18:22.079
it's like I'm your uncle. Oh okay, and I'm also

236
00:18:22.160 --> 00:18:29.319
your auntie. Really I'm your cousin huh, Like like ten cousins,

237
00:18:30.160 --> 00:18:34.680
five uncles and aunt's ten cousins, nanny and granddad and

238
00:18:34.759 --> 00:18:40.559
another nanny. Like sit away too many people. So I

239
00:18:40.599 --> 00:18:46.880
didn't remember her. But that weekend was one of the

240
00:18:46.920 --> 00:18:50.279
best weekends ever. So she picked us up, took us

241
00:18:50.319 --> 00:18:55.920
to London. London's not far from the South End. It

242
00:18:56.160 --> 00:18:59.160
seemed a long way when you're a little kid to be.

243
00:18:59.400 --> 00:19:01.039
I don't even know if we was in a car.

244
00:19:01.200 --> 00:19:04.000
She might just might have gone on a train because

245
00:19:04.000 --> 00:19:07.559
there was a train directly to Liverpool Street. From South

246
00:19:07.640 --> 00:19:15.680
End Victoria. I made the journey many times as an adult. Yeah,

247
00:19:15.720 --> 00:19:21.119
I used to used to visit South End. South End

248
00:19:21.240 --> 00:19:23.000
used to be a place that I would go to

249
00:19:24.279 --> 00:19:29.200
when I fenceed a day out, like a kind of

250
00:19:30.920 --> 00:19:37.599
I think I took. Yeah, I took two different girlfriends

251
00:19:37.640 --> 00:19:40.960
there or too. I went on two different dates, maybe

252
00:19:41.039 --> 00:19:44.680
more to South End when I was living in London,

253
00:19:45.599 --> 00:19:48.319
and just like, let's go for a walk. Let's let's

254
00:19:48.319 --> 00:19:51.599
go for a walk. Let's go to South End, get

255
00:19:51.640 --> 00:19:54.079
on a train. It's like forty five minutes or whatever

256
00:19:54.160 --> 00:19:58.039
on a train, maybe an hour, I don't know, and

257
00:19:58.200 --> 00:20:02.000
then would be there South End Beach, have a nice

258
00:20:02.039 --> 00:20:05.119
walk and go on to the pier. That's a that's

259
00:20:05.160 --> 00:20:07.839
a journey in itself, just to walk along the pier.

260
00:20:09.240 --> 00:20:14.440
Candy floss, fish and chips. Maybe not candy flop. I

261
00:20:14.519 --> 00:20:22.920
suppose I did have candy floss, ice creams. Just what

262
00:20:23.039 --> 00:20:26.839
anything you want really is just like anywhere else. And

263
00:20:27.240 --> 00:20:30.559
it was a nice day out. It wasn't far away,

264
00:20:31.799 --> 00:20:36.640
but it was totally different from being in London, you know,

265
00:20:36.799 --> 00:20:39.799
being near the sea. I mean, South End is not

266
00:20:39.880 --> 00:20:45.440
the nearest sea if you're in London. I think there's

267
00:20:45.599 --> 00:20:49.400
closer sea. I think Harriage is closer. I'm not sure,

268
00:20:50.039 --> 00:20:53.680
but you've got bill Ricky. I don't know if that's

269
00:20:54.039 --> 00:20:56.240
the Isle of Dogs. I suppose there's a sea there.

270
00:20:56.400 --> 00:21:02.640
Maybe I wonder whether as a sea. I mean you've

271
00:21:02.680 --> 00:21:06.960
got the Thames which leads to the sea.

272
00:21:10.400 --> 00:21:10.720
H M.

273
00:21:18.839 --> 00:21:22.759
From the Yeah, I don't know. So, yeah, the South

274
00:21:22.839 --> 00:21:27.960
End it's where I used to go, but to this

275
00:21:28.119 --> 00:21:32.640
day in London, it was lovely, lovely, lovely, she remembered.

276
00:21:33.559 --> 00:21:41.359
Went to South End with a Spanish female that I

277
00:21:41.480 --> 00:21:50.839
met was Ith Strafford Strafford train station. I saw her

278
00:21:50.920 --> 00:21:54.279
and I thought I'd like to talk to her, so

279
00:21:54.319 --> 00:21:56.960
I went up to her. I just say, excuse me, sorry,

280
00:21:57.519 --> 00:22:01.960
could you tell me? He did tell me, and I

281
00:22:01.960 --> 00:22:03.519
asked you a question that I knew the answer to

282
00:22:06.400 --> 00:22:08.359
because I just wanted to talk to her, and I

283
00:22:08.480 --> 00:22:12.000
ended up She gave me a telephone number, a name,

284
00:22:12.079 --> 00:22:14.079
and her address. She wrote it down on the pieces

285
00:22:14.079 --> 00:22:17.599
of paper or did you have it already written down?

286
00:22:19.559 --> 00:22:24.240
Was it just randomly giving it out to men? Possibly? Anyway,

287
00:22:24.480 --> 00:22:26.720
So we went out. We talked on the phone a

288
00:22:26.720 --> 00:22:32.440
few days in a row, and then I kind of

289
00:22:32.440 --> 00:22:35.000
fell for her really, she was just I just really

290
00:22:35.039 --> 00:22:40.880
liked her a lot. And we went out to South

291
00:22:41.000 --> 00:22:45.200
End for the day and there was a couple of

292
00:22:45.359 --> 00:22:48.519
Because you know when you're when you were abroad, you

293
00:22:48.559 --> 00:22:52.960
can hear your own language being spoken knya, like it's

294
00:22:53.000 --> 00:22:56.039
just one of those things. I remember when I was

295
00:22:56.079 --> 00:23:01.880
in Belgium. There was we were walking down the street

296
00:23:01.960 --> 00:23:06.000
in Belgium and I was with like three or four

297
00:23:06.160 --> 00:23:08.440
people from work. This is when I was about eighteen,

298
00:23:10.279 --> 00:23:14.960
and we were walking down this busy road and suddenly

299
00:23:15.000 --> 00:23:22.119
one of my work colleagues shouted out English, you're English

300
00:23:23.640 --> 00:23:26.519
over this crowd and the other there was another little

301
00:23:26.640 --> 00:23:32.559
group of men and English. Your English got so excited

302
00:23:32.880 --> 00:23:39.079
to meet another English but speaking person. I mean we'd

303
00:23:39.160 --> 00:23:42.720
only been there for about ten minutes. How much can

304
00:23:42.759 --> 00:23:45.880
you miss the fact that it was with four other

305
00:23:45.920 --> 00:23:50.359
people that also spoke English. Why would he miss being

306
00:23:50.400 --> 00:23:57.039
around English speaking people so much? I didn't understand it.

307
00:23:58.319 --> 00:24:00.759
I think couldn't really get it. But it was because

308
00:24:00.759 --> 00:24:03.119
they were jumping up and down, hugging each other.

309
00:24:04.319 --> 00:24:04.759
It was.

310
00:24:06.200 --> 00:24:15.039
Very erotic, it was. It was kind of strange. So anyway,

311
00:24:15.200 --> 00:24:19.240
I was, yeah, we were walking me in this what

312
00:24:19.279 --> 00:24:28.880
was her name, Martyr, Moditor, Moditor. We're walking down the Yeah,

313
00:24:28.920 --> 00:24:39.440
we walked on the pier and suddenly she noticed a

314
00:24:39.440 --> 00:24:45.480
couple of Spanish men and they noticed her and they

315
00:24:45.519 --> 00:24:49.359
started talking in I couldn't really understand what they were

316
00:24:49.359 --> 00:24:52.039
saying in some kind of language, different language to English.

317
00:24:52.839 --> 00:24:59.400
And even though it's in a different language, I can,

318
00:24:59.759 --> 00:25:03.880
I could. I knew what they were saying. It was weird.

319
00:25:05.359 --> 00:25:07.440
And I asked her and she told me, she said, yeah,

320
00:25:07.440 --> 00:25:12.279
I was right. So what I could see and it was,

321
00:25:12.400 --> 00:25:16.200
you know, they were not speaking English. They were basically

322
00:25:16.240 --> 00:25:21.559
mocking me. And they said I was like your boyfriend,

323
00:25:22.759 --> 00:25:29.119
and she said no, but it wasn't that. No, no,

324
00:25:29.440 --> 00:25:32.200
like that. Yeah, bearing in mind that we kind of

325
00:25:32.240 --> 00:25:39.359
were dating ish kind of, and I knew, even in

326
00:25:39.400 --> 00:25:45.119
another language, it's the same energy, it's the same looks,

327
00:25:45.240 --> 00:25:49.599
it's the same it was the same tone of voice.

328
00:25:51.680 --> 00:26:02.160
And yeah, it was a bit awkward after that. Yeah,

329
00:26:02.319 --> 00:26:04.039
I've don't know if that was before or after I

330
00:26:04.160 --> 00:26:08.160
visited her at her home, because she invited me around. Yeah,

331
00:26:08.160 --> 00:26:10.519
I think it was. It was before she vibd me

332
00:26:10.559 --> 00:26:15.960
around to her place because she was a nanny her

333
00:26:16.880 --> 00:26:20.400
all pair air pair she had. She was an O

334
00:26:20.559 --> 00:26:27.960
pair and so she was nineteen. I was, what twenty three?

335
00:26:28.440 --> 00:26:32.359
And she had dark where she was Spanish and she

336
00:26:32.440 --> 00:26:38.119
had dark hair and brown eyes. But I'm guessing the

337
00:26:38.119 --> 00:26:40.880
majority of people in Spain have probably got dark hair

338
00:26:40.920 --> 00:26:44.319
and brown eyes, because that's the Spanish look, isn't it.

339
00:26:46.200 --> 00:26:47.720
Did you know that most people in the world have

340
00:26:47.720 --> 00:26:53.599
got brown eyes? Blue eyes is an anomaly? Did you

341
00:26:53.640 --> 00:26:57.319
know that? I just thought that blue eyes because I

342
00:26:57.359 --> 00:27:00.920
got blue eyes. I just thought it's just most people

343
00:27:00.920 --> 00:27:05.039
would have blue eyes, but they haven't. Apparently apparently not

344
00:27:05.160 --> 00:27:14.880
everyone looks like me. I don't understand. So she's yeah,

345
00:27:14.960 --> 00:27:18.960
I really liked her. I really fancied her, But I

346
00:27:19.000 --> 00:27:21.000
really liked her. I did get on really I got

347
00:27:21.039 --> 00:27:23.839
on well with her on the phone, even though there

348
00:27:23.960 --> 00:27:30.799
was communication in English was really good, but my Spanish

349
00:27:30.960 --> 00:27:41.920
was zero. She taught me a few words see signor

350
00:27:46.000 --> 00:28:00.440
a cappella. I think that's Spanish, isn't it? Was it? Yeah? Yeah, Elle?

351
00:28:00.519 --> 00:28:03.160
If you say L before you any sentence, I think

352
00:28:03.200 --> 00:28:11.759
that helps L Hello, no, not l honcho? No Hello?

353
00:28:11.920 --> 00:28:27.160
What's the oh? I know the word for hello in Spain? Hello, Hello, Hello,

354
00:28:27.440 --> 00:28:31.440
Madora he.

355
00:28:32.079 --> 00:28:32.519
I don't know.

356
00:28:34.640 --> 00:28:38.240
I've never been great with languages I did I needed.

357
00:28:38.759 --> 00:28:43.640
I learned a few words in Thai. I learned a

358
00:28:43.759 --> 00:28:51.359
few words in Bulgaria, but that was just because I

359
00:28:51.400 --> 00:28:57.759
was talking to females at the time that I wanted to.

360
00:28:59.200 --> 00:29:03.200
I guess community I found at very early age. Probably

361
00:29:03.279 --> 00:29:11.160
it was probably with the Spanish lady that sometimes having

362
00:29:11.160 --> 00:29:21.599
a different language can be useful for communication or useful

363
00:29:21.680 --> 00:29:25.119
for like the beginning of a relationship, because learning each

364
00:29:25.119 --> 00:29:30.119
other's words. And I also figured out after years and

365
00:29:30.160 --> 00:29:32.240
years and years, the reason I got on so well

366
00:29:32.279 --> 00:29:35.240
with foreign women is because it took them longer to

367
00:29:35.319 --> 00:29:40.279
realize what I was really like. They thought I was

368
00:29:40.400 --> 00:29:42.880
nice for much longer than people that had met me

369
00:29:43.000 --> 00:29:46.119
that knew what I was saying. Once I realized what

370
00:29:46.160 --> 00:29:48.480
I was saying, they didn't necessarily like me so much.

371
00:29:49.759 --> 00:29:58.480
I'm joking kind of. I did upset someone in Thailand,

372
00:29:59.480 --> 00:30:02.880
a waitress, didn't mean to, genuinely did not mean to.

373
00:30:05.279 --> 00:30:11.960
It turned out I was trying to communicate with her, well,

374
00:30:11.960 --> 00:30:16.759
she was trying to communicate with me, and I was

375
00:30:16.799 --> 00:30:21.799
getting it wrong. So there was all these posters around

376
00:30:22.759 --> 00:30:28.480
for this, like some kind of wind where a bikinie

377
00:30:29.680 --> 00:30:35.599
beauty contest, a bikini pageant. There was posters all over

378
00:30:35.640 --> 00:30:37.279
this place. It was just a bar. It was like

379
00:30:37.319 --> 00:30:43.480
a normal bar restaurant, so Hooters, but it was still

380
00:30:43.640 --> 00:30:48.960
you know, they have food and stuff and I like it.

381
00:30:49.000 --> 00:30:52.359
I've never been I've never been into I like American bars,

382
00:30:52.359 --> 00:30:55.759
and that was just like an opportunity to go there

383
00:30:57.359 --> 00:31:02.400
every day. And there wasn't anything weird. It's just a

384
00:31:02.440 --> 00:31:06.599
normal you know. It was a family place. You could

385
00:31:06.640 --> 00:31:09.400
take your kids and stuff. I didn't have any kids

386
00:31:09.440 --> 00:31:13.880
to take, but if I had, I wouldn't wouldn't. Yeah,

387
00:31:14.000 --> 00:31:16.920
I mean, it's not holiday, is it if you've got

388
00:31:16.960 --> 00:31:23.160
kids with you? How is that a holiday? A holiday

389
00:31:23.279 --> 00:31:26.279
is when the kids are the other side of the world.

390
00:31:26.480 --> 00:31:32.799
Surely maybe not. Maybe got it wrong. I used to

391
00:31:32.880 --> 00:31:37.039
know someone that said, if the idea of it, it's

392
00:31:37.079 --> 00:31:40.799
not a decent holiday, if it's not a proper holiday,

393
00:31:40.839 --> 00:31:48.319
if when you get home, it's only a proper holiday

394
00:31:48.440 --> 00:31:50.839
if you get home and you need a holiday. So

395
00:31:50.920 --> 00:31:54.839
if you completely exhaust yourself, then it's a proper holiday.

396
00:31:54.880 --> 00:31:59.039
You've had. It's like, No, that's the opposite to what

397
00:31:59.200 --> 00:32:02.119
I'm thinking of. You know, because you like to go

398
00:32:02.279 --> 00:32:13.119
skiing and windsurfing and probably mounting climbing and pothole in

399
00:32:13.279 --> 00:32:24.039
and deep sea dive in, swimming with sharks, you know,

400
00:32:25.559 --> 00:32:28.880
all the things that I wouldn't want to do. And

401
00:32:28.920 --> 00:32:31.319
it's got nothing to do with lack of fitness, because

402
00:32:31.359 --> 00:32:32.759
you know, I'm not as fit as I used to be.

403
00:32:35.079 --> 00:32:40.559
It's I don't think. I think my mounting mountain climbing

404
00:32:40.640 --> 00:32:45.119
days are possibly behind me, but they were never in

405
00:32:45.160 --> 00:32:48.759
front of me either. I've never wanted to jump out

406
00:32:48.759 --> 00:32:51.119
of a plane. I've never wanted to go down a

407
00:32:51.160 --> 00:32:55.559
pothole and start Not a pothole, is it potholding. I

408
00:32:55.599 --> 00:32:58.440
didn't want to go down like find a crack in

409
00:32:58.559 --> 00:33:04.079
the earth and let's see where this leads. No, no,

410
00:33:05.279 --> 00:33:08.680
it's like, no, that's just I'm not not not interested

411
00:33:08.680 --> 00:33:13.480
in that. You know, Oh, let's go down to the

412
00:33:13.519 --> 00:33:19.079
bottom of the ocean. No, No, I never I never

413
00:33:19.119 --> 00:33:24.119
wanted to do that. That's that's a that's a deal breaker.

414
00:33:25.680 --> 00:33:29.240
I used to be in love with this this female

415
00:33:29.279 --> 00:33:36.200
that really really really liked her a lot. She didn't

416
00:33:36.240 --> 00:33:38.480
really know I existed, but she I really liked her,

417
00:33:40.160 --> 00:33:42.880
and I got talking to her. I finally got managed

418
00:33:42.880 --> 00:33:47.839
to build up the coage to say alone. And this

419
00:33:47.920 --> 00:33:49.799
is when I was a prison guard in a women's prison,

420
00:33:50.480 --> 00:33:56.640
so eventually you know, no, this is so I don't

421
00:33:56.640 --> 00:33:58.319
know I got talking. I think it was like what

422
00:33:58.359 --> 00:33:58.799
you're doing?

423
00:34:00.000 --> 00:34:00.319
You're right?

424
00:34:00.480 --> 00:34:02.480
She said, Oh, I think I said see you next week,

425
00:34:02.519 --> 00:34:07.359
hold onm on holiday next week. Okay. Normally if someone

426
00:34:07.440 --> 00:34:10.559
told me they're on holiday next week, because they are like,

427
00:34:10.599 --> 00:34:14.840
why are you telling me? What use is that information?

428
00:34:15.039 --> 00:34:17.280
How am I gonna How is that going to benefit

429
00:34:17.360 --> 00:34:20.039
me knowing you're on holiday next week? Which could be

430
00:34:20.039 --> 00:34:23.480
a bit attitudinal. I've gotta work on that. Maybe when

431
00:34:23.519 --> 00:34:25.840
I was younger, that is, you know, that's when I

432
00:34:25.880 --> 00:34:30.159
was like five or six, stinking thinking I did when

433
00:34:30.199 --> 00:34:39.760
I was five or six, just like, yeah, Christmas, look Jason,

434
00:34:40.079 --> 00:34:44.360
look where your brother's bought me for Christmas. It's it's

435
00:34:44.599 --> 00:34:48.159
uh like I never heard the end of the rest

436
00:34:48.159 --> 00:34:51.000
of it because I switched off. It's like, why do

437
00:34:51.079 --> 00:34:55.440
I care what is brought for you for Christmas? I

438
00:34:55.480 --> 00:34:57.360
don't even care what I bought you. I don't care

439
00:34:57.360 --> 00:34:59.719
about what I bought you for Christmas. I'm only interesting

440
00:34:59.760 --> 00:35:05.320
what I get for Christmas. Christmas is about receiving, not giving,

441
00:35:07.159 --> 00:35:12.280
and any kid that says the opposite is lying. It's

442
00:35:12.320 --> 00:35:18.239
about receiving presents. How many kids do you think go

443
00:35:18.320 --> 00:35:22.599
to sleep Christmas Eve and they can't get like mom,

444
00:35:22.800 --> 00:35:25.119
I can't get to sleep, I can't get to sleep,

445
00:35:25.159 --> 00:35:28.519
and their parents going, what is it? Little JJ, I

446
00:35:28.559 --> 00:35:31.719
can't get to sleep? Daddy and mama, Dad and mama?

447
00:35:32.320 --> 00:35:35.000
Why is it? Why can't you get to sleep? Is

448
00:35:35.039 --> 00:35:36.360
it because Father Christmas?

449
00:35:36.400 --> 00:35:37.079
And yeah?

450
00:35:37.199 --> 00:35:38.880
Is it because of Christmas morning tomorrow?

451
00:35:39.239 --> 00:35:39.480
Yeah?

452
00:35:39.519 --> 00:35:42.320
It is? He said, Well, what is it that's keeping

453
00:35:42.360 --> 00:35:46.079
you awake? He said, I just can't. I can't. I

454
00:35:46.119 --> 00:35:50.519
can't sleep because I'm so worried and excited about whether

455
00:35:50.599 --> 00:35:54.559
or not you'll like the presence I bought you for Christmas.

456
00:35:56.000 --> 00:36:01.199
That conversation has never happened, not once. I guarantee you that.

457
00:36:02.320 --> 00:36:04.440
But I'm just, I'm just I just want you to

458
00:36:04.480 --> 00:36:10.159
be happy, like any kid cares. What they want is

459
00:36:10.239 --> 00:36:12.679
to be happy. Oh my right my big tom or

460
00:36:12.760 --> 00:36:16.440
right foot just seesed up. Thankfully, I don't need to

461
00:36:16.519 --> 00:36:20.280
use it very often, so it's okay. Oh that was weird.

462
00:36:20.800 --> 00:36:27.159
I stretched. It doesn't normally get any stretching. I'm only joking,

463
00:36:27.159 --> 00:36:31.400
by the way, when they'd say things, it wasn't really

464
00:36:31.559 --> 00:36:38.719
didn't really like get stiff. I got one of my

465
00:36:38.840 --> 00:36:44.679
legs seizes up sometimes the calf muscle, and it changes

466
00:36:44.760 --> 00:36:49.719
my mood. I remember was on a date with someone and

467
00:36:49.800 --> 00:36:52.760
I was in here and it was going quite well. Well,

468
00:36:53.440 --> 00:36:56.280
she hadn't left, so I always take that as a

469
00:36:56.320 --> 00:37:03.679
positive sign. And I've been sitting down. So I just

470
00:37:03.719 --> 00:37:06.400
stood up and stretched my legs. I just I don't know,

471
00:37:06.480 --> 00:37:09.440
you know, we kind of probably got onto my toes

472
00:37:11.119 --> 00:37:16.559
and my left calf cramped up, and she was like,

473
00:37:17.400 --> 00:37:21.039
oh you okay, like caffrey. I wasn't quite that bad,

474
00:37:21.079 --> 00:37:28.079
but it was like, oh, how was not pleasant? She said,

475
00:37:28.440 --> 00:37:32.599
draw into message and said no, and she did. I said,

476
00:37:32.639 --> 00:37:36.719
oh okay, so that helped. She says that better. I

477
00:37:36.719 --> 00:37:39.840
said yeah, and I said I've got to go and

478
00:37:39.840 --> 00:37:45.239
get something like ohh, I've cramped up again. What your

479
00:37:45.280 --> 00:37:48.599
calf are going? No, it's mick grhyin. No, I made

480
00:37:48.599 --> 00:37:57.320
that up. So the pigeons, I just like the pigeons.

481
00:37:57.360 --> 00:37:59.639
What's this got to do with biscuits. I've got to

482
00:37:59.639 --> 00:38:09.920
talk biscuits. But I can't even remember where I was

483
00:38:09.960 --> 00:38:12.840
going with that. I don't know if I was going anywhere, really,

484
00:38:17.480 --> 00:38:19.840
but I remember her. She was nice. I was what

485
00:38:20.039 --> 00:38:29.360
ninety four time. She was so lovely. I forgot I

486
00:38:29.360 --> 00:38:45.159
had a girlfriend. No, I didn't forget, so I I yeah, biscuits.

487
00:38:45.519 --> 00:38:48.840
These biscuits at my nan head. They were lovely and

488
00:38:48.840 --> 00:38:51.920
I'd have them every single time I visited her. I

489
00:38:51.960 --> 00:38:54.239
can't remember the name of them, but they're really nice.

490
00:38:54.639 --> 00:38:58.760
They're nice with all without tea. I mean, you can

491
00:38:58.760 --> 00:39:05.599
dip them or not dip them. Never double dip. One

492
00:39:05.679 --> 00:39:13.840
dips enough otherwise it would break. And I don't know

493
00:39:13.840 --> 00:39:16.960
what it is once once a biscuit's broken into the tea,

494
00:39:17.800 --> 00:39:21.400
I mean some some do float on the top, but

495
00:39:21.559 --> 00:39:23.679
some don't. Some will just sink down to the bottom.

496
00:39:24.280 --> 00:39:28.760
And it's almost I feel like the tea is contaminated.

497
00:39:31.199 --> 00:39:36.800
I don't want to drink the tea anymore unless I

498
00:39:36.840 --> 00:39:40.679
get spoon and I get the biscuit out. But the

499
00:39:40.679 --> 00:39:42.360
weird thing about it, even though I feel like the

500
00:39:42.400 --> 00:39:44.880
tea is contaminated, I don't want to drink the tea

501
00:39:45.440 --> 00:39:47.360
when you get the biscuit out of spoon, I want

502
00:39:47.360 --> 00:39:52.159
to eat the biscuit. It's weird, isn't it. It's like

503
00:39:52.280 --> 00:39:54.960
I don't want to drink that water from that from

504
00:39:55.000 --> 00:39:58.920
that river because it's waste at the bottom, and then

505
00:39:58.960 --> 00:40:04.239
getting the waste out and munching on it. No weird, weird.

506
00:40:08.360 --> 00:40:12.679
Other biscuits. I think my favorite biscuits are probably plain

507
00:40:12.719 --> 00:40:22.760
old digestives Mcvitti's digestives and I like rich tea as well.

508
00:40:25.079 --> 00:40:29.239
They're the two best biscuits for dipping into tea. I think,

509
00:40:30.440 --> 00:40:37.239
in my opinion, the thing is you've got to really,

510
00:40:37.599 --> 00:40:40.079
I mean, that's why we're trained in I don't know.

511
00:40:40.199 --> 00:40:42.000
If you're not in England, you might not know this,

512
00:40:42.119 --> 00:40:46.519
but in England we actually have classes at school for

513
00:40:47.119 --> 00:40:52.320
biscuit dipping and it's called biscuit dipping. That's just the class.

514
00:40:52.360 --> 00:40:56.119
It's called biscuit dipping. What you're doing where you've got

515
00:40:56.119 --> 00:41:00.880
to go? I've got maths? Oh where you biscuit? Okay,

516
00:41:01.239 --> 00:41:04.800
just give you an example. And you might think you

517
00:41:04.880 --> 00:41:06.599
might be in a country. So what do you mean maths?

518
00:41:07.400 --> 00:41:10.719
Don't you need math? No maths, that's the correct way.

519
00:41:11.199 --> 00:41:19.679
It's not mathematic, it's mathematics. Maths is short for mathematics,

520
00:41:20.800 --> 00:41:26.280
not mathematic. There's no such thing as mathematic. It's mathematics.

521
00:41:27.280 --> 00:41:29.599
I'm just you know. It's all about helping, isn't it.

522
00:41:30.400 --> 00:41:37.199
And so we have these classes at school. It's in

523
00:41:37.239 --> 00:41:41.079
every year right away from like infant school all the

524
00:41:41.079 --> 00:41:44.119
way up to high school. By the time you get

525
00:41:44.119 --> 00:41:47.079
to leave school at like sixteen maybe eighteen, depending on

526
00:41:47.079 --> 00:41:52.719
when you leave, you almost become a master of biscuit dipping.

527
00:41:54.239 --> 00:41:57.000
It's not just tea. You have to learn coffee. The

528
00:41:57.039 --> 00:42:00.239
problem of coffee is it tends to hold the heat

529
00:42:00.280 --> 00:42:04.920
a little bit longer unless you put lots of milk in.

530
00:42:06.760 --> 00:42:09.639
Tea tends to calm down. We become experts on tea

531
00:42:09.639 --> 00:42:13.159
and coffee as well, the temperatures, how to make a

532
00:42:13.199 --> 00:42:19.360
cup of tea. See, the problem is, though, there's a

533
00:42:19.400 --> 00:42:21.960
little bit. It's become a little bit like a religion

534
00:42:23.840 --> 00:42:28.320
tea making in this country. So you know, you've got

535
00:42:28.400 --> 00:42:35.159
kind of the Catholics, the Protestants, the different Anglo Anglican

536
00:42:35.320 --> 00:42:39.840
churches and different kinds of Christianity ish stuff. It's a

537
00:42:39.880 --> 00:42:45.320
little bit like that with tea making. So there's people

538
00:42:45.400 --> 00:42:52.800
that put the milk in before the water, before the

539
00:42:52.840 --> 00:42:57.760
hot water, and those people put the milk in after

540
00:42:57.840 --> 00:43:02.159
the hot water. So it's very much a controversial thing.

541
00:43:02.880 --> 00:43:05.119
Once the year, people have go on rallies, so they

542
00:43:06.039 --> 00:43:09.000
they all dress up as biscuits. It's just very, very

543
00:43:09.239 --> 00:43:16.039
very strange, and for some reason they decided to take

544
00:43:16.119 --> 00:43:19.559
the rich tea and digestive. They're kind of taking those

545
00:43:19.599 --> 00:43:25.800
two even though it's not really about biscuits, not really,

546
00:43:27.199 --> 00:43:30.519
but you know, they've kind of taken on because milk.

547
00:43:30.639 --> 00:43:34.360
They have the white like the the what's it called

548
00:43:34.480 --> 00:43:38.440
the rich tea because they're kind of much paler than

549
00:43:38.440 --> 00:43:43.159
a digestive biscuit. So they're the ones that like the

550
00:43:43.239 --> 00:43:47.840
milk in first. Digestives are now classes the ones that

551
00:43:48.000 --> 00:43:51.880
like the milk in afterwards. So I'm a digestive because

552
00:43:52.679 --> 00:43:55.960
you know, you put the water in for me. They

553
00:43:55.960 --> 00:43:58.800
put the water in with a tea bag and then

554
00:43:58.960 --> 00:44:06.960
add the milk. So it's just some people, do you

555
00:44:07.000 --> 00:44:09.480
know something like you can't put the milk in first

556
00:44:09.480 --> 00:44:12.920
because the hot water, Scotch is the milk. I've never

557
00:44:13.000 --> 00:44:19.159
heard milk scream once. Oh stop stop, it's never so

558
00:44:19.360 --> 00:44:21.039
I don't know where they come up with that stuff.

559
00:44:22.880 --> 00:44:25.639
I don't even know would people even notice if you

560
00:44:25.679 --> 00:44:28.639
did a blind test and you gave someone a cup

561
00:44:28.679 --> 00:44:32.079
of tea, Because I've made cups of two people and

562
00:44:32.119 --> 00:44:35.000
I've never once had them say, wait a minute, did

563
00:44:35.079 --> 00:44:41.960
you put the milk in first or the opposite? You know, Plus,

564
00:44:42.000 --> 00:44:45.519
I like to do whatever they I like to do

565
00:44:45.559 --> 00:44:47.679
the opposite to what people say. When I was younger,

566
00:44:47.679 --> 00:44:52.480
not now, but when I was younger. So someone said, oh,

567
00:44:52.920 --> 00:44:55.159
make sure you put the milk in before the tea

568
00:44:55.199 --> 00:44:57.760
bag and the hot water. I would do the opposite,

569
00:44:57.800 --> 00:45:03.440
and they never knew they could tell the difference, So

570
00:45:03.559 --> 00:45:07.039
I just there was one time, though I did it,

571
00:45:07.599 --> 00:45:09.840
I gave them the wrong cup, so I ended up

572
00:45:09.840 --> 00:45:11.920
with the one with the milk in before the tea bag.

573
00:45:12.039 --> 00:45:17.760
It was disgusting. I was so angry, and I didn't

574
00:45:17.800 --> 00:45:22.679
know at the time, but once I realized it tasted

575
00:45:22.679 --> 00:45:25.239
the same at the time, but once I realized it

576
00:45:25.280 --> 00:45:31.800
tasted horrible, it was a week later. But dear Jason,

577
00:45:33.960 --> 00:45:40.559
these are boring mondays. I used to like them because

578
00:45:40.599 --> 00:45:44.119
you'd focus on a subject you seemed to have lost

579
00:45:44.119 --> 00:45:47.840
your way a little bit. The reason one where you

580
00:45:47.920 --> 00:45:56.519
talked about biscuits and scorched milk and a Spanish girlfriend

581
00:45:58.880 --> 00:46:07.880
and teammaking classes. Biscuit dipp in. It's just just goth

582
00:46:08.360 --> 00:46:13.239
gone in a weird direction. Please can you talk about

583
00:46:13.320 --> 00:46:23.760
tires next week? It's okay, I don't know. I'm still

584
00:46:23.840 --> 00:46:32.880
not an expert though a biscuit dipping occasionally if I'm distracted. Okay,

585
00:46:34.360 --> 00:46:42.599
So let's remember there was, Yeah, I had this part

586
00:46:42.679 --> 00:46:45.599
time job. No I was. I was in a bank

587
00:46:46.800 --> 00:46:51.639
and I was I think I was trying to get

588
00:46:51.679 --> 00:46:53.679
a loan or something, and they gave me a cup

589
00:46:53.719 --> 00:46:56.840
of tea and at biscuit I coudn't believe it's this

590
00:46:56.920 --> 00:47:00.000
is good. So I'm there at one of those tables

591
00:47:00.119 --> 00:47:03.920
opposite the bank wasn't the bank manager, but someone that

592
00:47:04.000 --> 00:47:05.920
worked in the bank, and then there was the big

593
00:47:06.000 --> 00:47:07.920
counter over the other side, and there's a few other

594
00:47:08.079 --> 00:47:11.280
tables dotted around. So I'm just having a cup of

595
00:47:11.280 --> 00:47:17.599
tea and the bank gets robbed. So these bank robbers

596
00:47:17.639 --> 00:47:23.599
come in and shouted and stuff. So that distracted me

597
00:47:25.079 --> 00:47:27.880
because I was trying to dip my biscuit in, but

598
00:47:27.920 --> 00:47:31.599
I left it in too far, too too long, and

599
00:47:31.679 --> 00:47:38.679
it broke. Now that nearly ruined my day, and all

600
00:47:38.719 --> 00:47:43.400
I remember is them, Shannon, get down on the floor.

601
00:47:43.480 --> 00:47:46.599
Get down on the floor, don't look at us, don't

602
00:47:46.639 --> 00:47:52.519
stop stop dunking your biscuit and your tea. I was like,

603
00:47:55.280 --> 00:47:58.800
what else am I supposed to do? Because as an

604
00:47:58.880 --> 00:48:05.559
english person, there's there's a saying in England once you

605
00:48:05.760 --> 00:48:11.920
start dipping that that's it. So once you start to

606
00:48:11.960 --> 00:48:16.840
dip a biscuit in your tea, that's what you're going

607
00:48:16.920 --> 00:48:23.159
to do. Because the whole process starts with the thought

608
00:48:23.880 --> 00:48:28.880
of dipping the biscuit in the cup of tea. It's

609
00:48:28.920 --> 00:48:31.440
not just like we don't do it any old now,

610
00:48:33.360 --> 00:48:36.280
you know, especially if you've been trained from the age

611
00:48:36.320 --> 00:48:39.800
of two how to dip biscuits in tea, because you've

612
00:48:39.800 --> 00:48:44.559
been trained at school like we are. And by the way,

613
00:48:44.559 --> 00:48:47.320
if you ever get into if you ever want if

614
00:48:47.320 --> 00:48:49.280
you're in another country and you want to, you know,

615
00:48:50.119 --> 00:48:54.840
show off your knowledge of other countries, this is something

616
00:48:54.880 --> 00:49:01.679
you could tell people that they'll be fascinated and impressed.

617
00:49:01.719 --> 00:49:06.239
Probably in fact, they may if it's a crowd of

618
00:49:06.280 --> 00:49:08.800
people that may actually lift you above their shoulders and

619
00:49:09.119 --> 00:49:14.679
parade you around the streets singing your name loudly. So

620
00:49:15.119 --> 00:49:24.119
it's possible anything's possible, I suppose. And once you have

621
00:49:24.239 --> 00:49:27.599
the idea, I'm going to I want to dip a

622
00:49:27.719 --> 00:49:31.960
biscuit in the tea. And it wasn't there to start with,

623
00:49:32.159 --> 00:49:33.679
but you know, I had the cup of tea and

624
00:49:33.679 --> 00:49:39.039
I thought I wish I had some biscuits. That's another thing.

625
00:49:39.119 --> 00:49:44.159
Normally English people carry around biscuits and we keep them

626
00:49:44.199 --> 00:49:47.880
in our socks before we say oh, that's grim. No,

627
00:49:47.920 --> 00:49:51.880
they're in a packet. You know, they're not. They're not

628
00:49:52.119 --> 00:49:55.920
you know, it's not the whole big, massive, long packet

629
00:49:55.920 --> 00:50:01.360
of biscuits. These are smaller packets, so you might get

630
00:50:01.400 --> 00:50:06.840
maybe three biscuits or two biscuits maybe, so they fit

631
00:50:06.920 --> 00:50:15.760
inside the socks quite easily. And so generally every english

632
00:50:15.840 --> 00:50:18.880
Person would have at least one packet of biscuits in

633
00:50:18.920 --> 00:50:22.559
their socks. Now depends how long you're going to be

634
00:50:22.559 --> 00:50:26.440
out for. If you just if you're just popping around

635
00:50:26.480 --> 00:50:33.079
a neighbor's house, then you just like one one packet

636
00:50:33.119 --> 00:50:36.679
of one packet of biscuits and your socks is normally enough.

637
00:50:41.159 --> 00:50:46.119
And it depends because generally if you go around a

638
00:50:46.119 --> 00:50:50.039
neighbor's house, they the rule is in this country, if

639
00:50:50.079 --> 00:50:53.360
you visit a neighbor or friend or family, whoever it is.

640
00:50:53.880 --> 00:50:58.239
The visitor gets well, okay, the host, that say, the

641
00:50:58.280 --> 00:51:03.199
person who owns the place. The visitor gets given biscuits

642
00:51:03.920 --> 00:51:08.440
and gets to choose what biscuits they want. So this

643
00:51:08.559 --> 00:51:11.039
is an English thing. This is just this happens. Happen't

644
00:51:11.079 --> 00:51:18.079
here for centuries, I think, and so basically what happens.

645
00:51:17.960 --> 00:51:20.519
And just in case you didn't know this in every

646
00:51:20.559 --> 00:51:26.519
English home there is if you go into the front door,

647
00:51:27.719 --> 00:51:33.360
every English home has a room full of biscuits, every

648
00:51:33.400 --> 00:51:38.559
single type of biscuits. And you could say, well, not

649
00:51:38.599 --> 00:51:42.760
all biscuits can be dunked. They can. That's the thing.

650
00:51:43.360 --> 00:51:48.039
If you're not trained like we are, you might struggle

651
00:51:48.440 --> 00:51:53.880
to dip a soggy biscuit into a tea. It might

652
00:51:53.920 --> 00:51:57.800
not work for you. But even something like a jaffa cake,

653
00:51:58.599 --> 00:52:02.599
there's an art to doing a jaffa cake and not

654
00:52:02.719 --> 00:52:08.559
leaving any chocolate in tea. Or you can do it

655
00:52:08.599 --> 00:52:10.920
where you just leave a little love heart on the

656
00:52:10.920 --> 00:52:16.320
top of the tee. See, there's so much art connected

657
00:52:16.360 --> 00:52:21.400
to this. It's it's hard to explain. I realized it's

658
00:52:21.679 --> 00:52:24.360
it might this might be new to you. You might

659
00:52:24.360 --> 00:52:29.480
not have known this about English people, but it's it's

660
00:52:29.559 --> 00:52:34.519
a I started to think about this, you know, because

661
00:52:34.559 --> 00:52:37.679
I might be the only English person you ever listened

662
00:52:37.719 --> 00:52:44.239
to as far as a podcast, or you may not

663
00:52:44.400 --> 00:52:49.159
know any English people and your English, your your knowledge

664
00:52:49.159 --> 00:52:54.440
of England might come from television or from movies. And

665
00:52:54.480 --> 00:52:57.880
of course some of that's true, you know, but things

666
00:52:58.039 --> 00:53:04.159
like downtown Abbeys that's not real, but it's real. But

667
00:53:04.159 --> 00:53:06.320
I mean, there are people that used to live like that,

668
00:53:06.440 --> 00:53:10.760
but it's not the general thing. What I'm telling you

669
00:53:10.880 --> 00:53:16.679
is what everybody does. So it's it's worth knowing that

670
00:53:16.800 --> 00:53:22.599
before you come here, and you could you can you

671
00:53:22.639 --> 00:53:28.440
can sound very, very knowledgeable when you tell people about

672
00:53:28.480 --> 00:53:33.280
this stuff, when you tell your friends and family, maybe

673
00:53:33.360 --> 00:53:39.960
over Christmas dinner, like did you know that in England

674
00:53:41.599 --> 00:53:46.840
every home has a room specifically for biscuits. See, they

675
00:53:46.880 --> 00:53:51.239
wouldn't know that until you told them. So I guess

676
00:53:51.559 --> 00:53:53.639
maybe I can tell you some other stuff about England

677
00:53:53.679 --> 00:53:56.199
at another time. This is just going to be the

678
00:53:56.639 --> 00:53:59.239
first I did a weird noither did you hear that?

679
00:53:59.719 --> 00:53:59.920
This is.

680
00:54:02.079 --> 00:54:11.199
So yeah, the little piggy in my throat so in

681
00:54:11.199 --> 00:54:14.440
the biscuit. It's called the bikie room. Okay that I

682
00:54:14.480 --> 00:54:17.280
should tell you that we don't call them biscuits here.

683
00:54:17.280 --> 00:54:22.679
We call them bikies. It's genuine. It's like, it's just

684
00:54:22.760 --> 00:54:27.440
short for biscuits. Bikie, got time for copper, cup of

685
00:54:27.480 --> 00:54:30.480
teas coppa? Got time for a cuppa and a bikie.

686
00:54:31.079 --> 00:54:33.920
So that's two different things. Have you got time for copper?

687
00:54:36.559 --> 00:54:42.320
Sometimes that just means well, you used to have a

688
00:54:42.440 --> 00:54:46.920
quick cup of tea, drink it and leave. But if

689
00:54:46.920 --> 00:54:49.719
someone says, I You've got time for a cuppa and

690
00:54:49.760 --> 00:54:54.519
a bikie, what that means is they like you and

691
00:54:54.599 --> 00:54:56.440
they'd like to spend more time with you and get

692
00:54:56.480 --> 00:55:00.280
to know you better. It's kind of like an English

693
00:55:00.440 --> 00:55:03.199
chat up date, a chat up lying in a way,

694
00:55:04.000 --> 00:55:12.880
but it's very subtle. So if you're it happens quite

695
00:55:13.039 --> 00:55:14.920
you know, if you literally someone says to you you

696
00:55:14.920 --> 00:55:18.599
would like her. If you're in a coffee place in

697
00:55:18.920 --> 00:55:23.119
the UK or in England and you order a coffee

698
00:55:23.599 --> 00:55:26.880
and they say, would you like some biscuits, that means

699
00:55:26.920 --> 00:55:31.079
one hundred that they're in love with you. So it's

700
00:55:31.119 --> 00:55:35.079
worth just this is the information worth knowing that they're

701
00:55:35.119 --> 00:55:40.360
basically let you know they love you. And that's it

702
00:55:40.400 --> 00:55:44.280
really is. I think it's quite handy to have this knowledge.

703
00:55:46.280 --> 00:55:51.239
But if someone invites you around, or you visit. By

704
00:55:51.280 --> 00:55:53.960
the way, if you visit, and if you if they

705
00:55:53.960 --> 00:56:01.239
don't invite you and you just visit, then you don't

706
00:56:01.440 --> 00:56:07.239
get to choose what biscuits you want. They get to choose,

707
00:56:08.519 --> 00:56:14.400
but if they invite you, you get to choose. In fact,

708
00:56:14.440 --> 00:56:17.039
you don't even get an opportunity to go into the

709
00:56:17.079 --> 00:56:20.199
biscuit room what we call it the bickie room. But

710
00:56:20.599 --> 00:56:22.360
you don't get a chance to go into the biscuit

711
00:56:22.400 --> 00:56:27.639
room because you've not been invited. You've just made up

712
00:56:27.679 --> 00:56:29.599
your mind to knock on their door and go in

713
00:56:30.119 --> 00:56:35.519
or wait till they answer the door. Of course, in

714
00:56:35.559 --> 00:56:40.280
that situation, they can give you the horriblest biscuits that

715
00:56:40.320 --> 00:56:44.239
they want. They still have to give you biscuits, it's

716
00:56:44.280 --> 00:56:47.679
the law, but they don't have to give you the

717
00:56:47.760 --> 00:56:53.639
nice ones they give you are because we have a

718
00:56:53.679 --> 00:57:00.840
thing here. This is going to shock you. Oh, this

719
00:57:00.920 --> 00:57:03.880
is this is It's going to be hard for me

720
00:57:03.920 --> 00:57:06.239
to say this out loud. I'm a little bit embarrassed.

721
00:57:06.239 --> 00:57:06.440
By it.

722
00:57:06.519 --> 00:57:13.159
But Vin, he's having a dream. He's dreaming out about biscuits.

723
00:57:17.679 --> 00:57:20.880
So we have this thing in this country. We have supermarkets.

724
00:57:21.239 --> 00:57:25.159
That's not the shocking part. We have supermarkets and they

725
00:57:25.199 --> 00:57:28.840
sold biscuits. Again, that's not the shocking part. The shocking

726
00:57:28.880 --> 00:57:36.920
part is there are amongst the many, many types of

727
00:57:36.920 --> 00:57:43.880
biscuits a thing. I'm just saying this out loud. Again,

728
00:57:44.159 --> 00:57:46.559
this is quite a secret. We're not supposed to share this,

729
00:57:47.159 --> 00:57:49.360
but hey, I suppose I've just broken all the rules.

730
00:57:50.239 --> 00:57:55.920
We have a thing here called home brand, and so

731
00:57:56.039 --> 00:58:03.039
if it's in Sainsbury's supermarkets, home brand biscuits, and they're

732
00:58:03.079 --> 00:58:07.199
still call them the same like digestives or rich tea,

733
00:58:07.400 --> 00:58:12.480
but they're not really digestives and they're not really rich tea.

734
00:58:12.760 --> 00:58:15.599
And some would argue people have no sense of taste,

735
00:58:16.039 --> 00:58:21.119
no taste. Buds will argue it tastes the same. It

736
00:58:21.159 --> 00:58:26.320
doesn't taste the same, just the same way Dominoes and

737
00:58:27.000 --> 00:58:33.119
Pizza go Go do not taste the same. Pizza Hut

738
00:58:33.400 --> 00:58:36.639
and pitting Dominoes don't. It's different things. It just tastes

739
00:58:36.639 --> 00:58:39.159
different just because the word pizzas and it doesn't mean

740
00:58:39.159 --> 00:58:43.039
it's all going to taste the same. I've got on

741
00:58:43.079 --> 00:58:45.599
to talk about food. It makes me think it might

742
00:58:45.719 --> 00:58:54.639
be my tummy saying food a biscuit. So yeah, what

743
00:58:54.880 --> 00:59:02.039
some people do, and it's it's it. Don't have to, okay,

744
00:59:02.920 --> 00:59:07.239
but you have your right as an English citizen to

745
00:59:07.559 --> 00:59:14.079
provide instead of providing the decent biscuits, you provide the

746
00:59:14.159 --> 00:59:19.440
home brand biscuits for the cup of tea. And also

747
00:59:21.039 --> 00:59:27.840
you don't have to provide endless biscuits. I want to

748
00:59:27.880 --> 00:59:30.320
say endless. I mean they're all the same. There's no

749
00:59:30.440 --> 00:59:34.360
like massive biscuits. But although the wagon wheel used to

750
00:59:34.440 --> 00:59:37.719
be quite big, is it a biscuit? Is it? Is

751
00:59:37.760 --> 00:59:41.360
it like a chocolate because it is chocolate, but that's

752
00:59:41.480 --> 00:59:44.760
marshmallow inside, but also had biscuit. It's kind of a

753
00:59:44.760 --> 00:59:47.400
weird one is and it's too big to fit into

754
00:59:47.440 --> 00:59:51.559
a cup to dunke its. It's one of those weird

755
00:59:51.559 --> 00:59:54.320
things where you have to cut it in half first

756
00:59:55.199 --> 00:59:57.239
or in quarters, depending on how much you want to

757
00:59:57.239 --> 01:00:03.159
put in your mouth. And that's that's that was. I

758
01:00:03.159 --> 01:00:05.360
think I've probably spent about three months of school just

759
01:00:05.440 --> 01:00:07.679
learning how to do a wagon wheel, how to dip

760
01:00:07.719 --> 01:00:13.079
one of them without ruining everything because they drip, really drip.

761
01:00:13.880 --> 01:00:18.519
That's the thing. That's why we have the you know

762
01:00:18.519 --> 01:00:22.199
you got cup and saucer. We don't really have We

763
01:00:22.239 --> 01:00:26.559
don't really use saucers so much indoors. But that's what

764
01:00:26.679 --> 01:00:33.599
saucers were for was collecting the remnants of the biscuit

765
01:00:33.679 --> 01:00:36.840
of the tea dripping off the biscuit and any kind

766
01:00:36.920 --> 01:00:40.719
of chocolate or biscuity bits could like just be kept

767
01:00:40.760 --> 01:00:43.559
in there so it didn't go on to the table

768
01:00:44.639 --> 01:00:53.679
or drip onto your trousers. But yeah, generally, I think

769
01:00:53.719 --> 01:00:57.639
it's quite nice to have something different from other people

770
01:00:57.840 --> 01:01:00.000
because you know, I know that in Japan, I think

771
01:01:00.039 --> 01:01:03.440
they have the tea ceremony, but it's very different. I've

772
01:01:03.440 --> 01:01:05.880
done a tea ceremony and I put a center and

773
01:01:05.920 --> 01:01:10.480
they it's very slow. It's not something to be done

774
01:01:10.519 --> 01:01:14.480
when you're thirsty. That's all I'm saying. The tea ceremony

775
01:01:14.480 --> 01:01:19.000
isn't really about the tea. It's about mindfulness. It's about

776
01:01:20.000 --> 01:01:26.719
noticing every move that you make, every physical movement, every

777
01:01:26.920 --> 01:01:32.599
It's very slow and it's nice, very calm, but it's

778
01:01:33.840 --> 01:01:40.079
it's not really a social activity. I would argue. I'm

779
01:01:40.079 --> 01:01:43.000
trying to think of what other biscuits I liked. I

780
01:01:43.079 --> 01:01:47.000
used to have this little routine, I'm gonna say ritual, routine,

781
01:01:47.079 --> 01:01:57.639
ritual back in nineteen eighty eight, eighty eight, yeah, eighty eight.

782
01:02:00.400 --> 01:02:02.599
And I used to watch I remember, I used to

783
01:02:02.639 --> 01:02:04.880
come home from work. I think this is when I

784
01:02:04.960 --> 01:02:10.440
was working at the co op on a Friday evening,

785
01:02:11.559 --> 01:02:16.920
I would watch Roseanne and Cheers. So between nine and ten,

786
01:02:18.760 --> 01:02:22.119
I couldn't tell you which one was on first, Roseanne

787
01:02:22.199 --> 01:02:24.639
or Cheers, I don't know, but they'd both be on.

788
01:02:24.800 --> 01:02:27.880
And what I would do is I would have a

789
01:02:27.960 --> 01:02:32.440
can of coke and a packet of biscuits, and I

790
01:02:32.440 --> 01:02:37.119
would just eat the whole lot, maybe even two packs

791
01:02:37.159 --> 01:02:39.159
of biscuits, but I think it's one pack of biscuits.

792
01:02:40.000 --> 01:02:43.519
It was even fig rolls. Maybe it was two packs actually,

793
01:02:45.519 --> 01:02:49.480
but ginger nuts probably, and I would just feel bloated,

794
01:02:49.639 --> 01:02:56.159
like too much. But then when I was at the

795
01:02:56.159 --> 01:02:58.039
co op, I definitely went for a bit of a

796
01:02:58.039 --> 01:03:03.719
biscuit period. I gu it's a different weird visual, isn't

797
01:03:03.719 --> 01:03:07.960
that biscuit period at lunch time, not lunchtime, at break time,

798
01:03:09.079 --> 01:03:11.320
the first break of the day when I worked in

799
01:03:11.360 --> 01:03:15.360
the co op, which was a supermarket thing. It wasn't

800
01:03:15.400 --> 01:03:21.119
a big supermarket that I worked in. And two tills

801
01:03:21.199 --> 01:03:25.800
that was it, really, I think, or three tills something

802
01:03:25.880 --> 01:03:29.239
like that. Four tills, I think, two tills on the

803
01:03:29.239 --> 01:03:30.800
main till, and then there's a couple of other little

804
01:03:30.840 --> 01:03:42.519
tills when it was busy. Anyway, I went and I

805
01:03:42.599 --> 01:03:46.559
had this little routine when I would have my break,

806
01:03:46.679 --> 01:03:50.199
I buy a can of coke and I would buy

807
01:03:50.280 --> 01:03:54.079
some fig rolls. They were not home brand figure roles

808
01:03:54.159 --> 01:04:00.679
because well for me, they weren't for a visitor that

809
01:04:00.800 --> 01:04:04.480
had not, let me know, you know, an unwanted visitor,

810
01:04:04.559 --> 01:04:08.000
that's the one that would get the home brand figure roles.

811
01:04:08.320 --> 01:04:11.519
These were nice figure roles. And there's nothing wrong with

812
01:04:11.599 --> 01:04:19.039
home brand biscuits, you know, for other people. But you know,

813
01:04:19.320 --> 01:04:23.079
I've been raised to be a biscuits snob. That's how

814
01:04:23.079 --> 01:04:28.079
it is. So it's not my fault. It's like, you

815
01:04:28.119 --> 01:04:30.559
wouldn't blame me if I had a religious belief, if

816
01:04:30.559 --> 01:04:32.280
I was brought up to have that belief, and no

817
01:04:32.320 --> 01:04:36.920
matter how silly it might seem to everyone else, you

818
01:04:36.960 --> 01:04:39.559
can't blame me because I've been raised to believe that

819
01:04:39.599 --> 01:04:42.840
I don't know any different, and it's almost impossible to

820
01:04:42.880 --> 01:04:46.519
believe anything different in a way. But it's just like

821
01:04:46.800 --> 01:04:50.320
that's all I know, and that's that's what I you know,

822
01:04:51.119 --> 01:04:55.159
it's very hard to get someone out of that. And

823
01:04:55.199 --> 01:05:02.000
it's the same with biscuits. Biscuits a very much like religion,

824
01:05:02.119 --> 01:05:08.199
don't you know. So I used to have these fig

825
01:05:08.280 --> 01:05:14.199
rolls fig rolls, but they weren't because there's different types

826
01:05:14.239 --> 01:05:17.000
of fig roles they can get. You can get the

827
01:05:17.039 --> 01:05:19.320
ones that are like a roll, like literally they look

828
01:05:19.360 --> 01:05:21.559
a little bit like a sausage roll, really like a

829
01:05:21.599 --> 01:05:26.039
really small sausage roll. These ones weren't then. They were

830
01:05:26.360 --> 01:05:31.320
more fancy and a little bit bigger and like rolled

831
01:05:31.400 --> 01:05:36.480
over pastry. It was different. It tasted much nicer, and

832
01:05:36.519 --> 01:05:38.960
I think there was like one, two, three for about

833
01:05:39.079 --> 01:05:43.079
six in a pack, and I'd eat the whole lot

834
01:05:43.360 --> 01:05:49.079
with bican of coke. Oh yeah, fifteen minute break and

835
01:05:49.079 --> 01:05:52.199
that what we do do that listen to the radio

836
01:05:52.400 --> 01:05:56.119
in the staff room. The staff room was like big

837
01:05:56.239 --> 01:05:59.920
enough for two people sitting at a table and probably

838
01:06:00.639 --> 01:06:03.719
a coat wrack or you know, that's it. There wasn't

839
01:06:03.760 --> 01:06:10.199
a lot of room in there. I did that for months,

840
01:06:10.280 --> 01:06:20.360
just a nice or lovely figure roles I was can

841
01:06:20.360 --> 01:06:27.159
of coke. Yeah, it was nice. I liked that. It's

842
01:06:27.199 --> 01:06:29.000
weird though, because I closed my eyes and I can

843
01:06:29.079 --> 01:06:32.360
still see inside that shop.

844
01:06:33.719 --> 01:06:34.079
Now.

845
01:06:34.239 --> 01:06:38.599
I have been inside the shop over the years, because

846
01:06:38.599 --> 01:06:42.159
I've visited that town many times, hundreds of times since

847
01:06:42.199 --> 01:06:45.679
I left school, since I left the town, so I've

848
01:06:45.800 --> 01:06:50.960
been back loads of times. It's a long time since

849
01:06:50.960 --> 01:06:55.039
I went into that shop, many many years, so it

850
01:06:55.119 --> 01:06:59.480
might have changed, but I just remember how it used

851
01:06:59.519 --> 01:07:02.440
to be. So you'd go in, you'd look at the

852
01:07:02.519 --> 01:07:10.639
shop and it was next to a if you was

853
01:07:10.719 --> 01:07:14.360
facing it. Let's say you like if you walked out

854
01:07:14.360 --> 01:07:20.079
of the front door of the co op shop supermarket

855
01:07:20.559 --> 01:07:23.159
and just walk backwards. Not a good idea. You might

856
01:07:23.199 --> 01:07:25.679
bang into something. But it was quite a big pavement

857
01:07:27.400 --> 01:07:32.360
and you stopped and you opened your eyes. I mean again,

858
01:07:32.440 --> 01:07:34.519
why would you have Why would you close your eyes

859
01:07:34.559 --> 01:07:38.199
if you're walking backwards? But why would you walk backwards?

860
01:07:38.559 --> 01:07:40.679
Would it make any difference if you had your eyes open,

861
01:07:41.000 --> 01:07:44.639
because you can't see behind yourself, can you less You're

862
01:07:44.679 --> 01:07:47.960
a pigeon. So that's what I admire about pigeons because

863
01:07:47.960 --> 01:07:56.719
they can see pretty much everywhere the omnipotous on nipple

864
01:07:57.360 --> 01:08:04.079
nipples sil and to the left there was this Chinese

865
01:08:04.119 --> 01:08:08.840
takeaway and that was it. That was all there was

866
01:08:09.000 --> 01:08:13.440
on that little bit of road. So you go into

867
01:08:13.440 --> 01:08:15.519
the supermarket and on the right hand side there was

868
01:08:15.559 --> 01:08:21.119
the bit where the lorriers would go into deliver. So

869
01:08:21.159 --> 01:08:23.439
you go into the entrance, it was like a double door.

870
01:08:24.039 --> 01:08:27.199
Left hand side was the counter all the way up

871
01:08:27.239 --> 01:08:30.039
on the left hand side, so it was a cigarettes,

872
01:08:30.119 --> 01:08:33.159
booze all that stuff. Yeah, I think there might have

873
01:08:33.199 --> 01:08:41.920
been two tills. Yeah, ah, and I think there was

874
01:08:42.560 --> 01:08:49.800
a conveyor belt as well on there. Why would there

875
01:08:49.880 --> 01:08:51.920
isn't now, but I think there might have been back then.

876
01:08:54.000 --> 01:09:03.520
Ah maybe anyway, so there was that. And then if

877
01:09:03.560 --> 01:09:07.159
you so you go in, turn right, there's one lane,

878
01:09:07.279 --> 01:09:17.640
goes down, then turn left there's another lane and turn

879
01:09:17.800 --> 01:09:19.600
right and then turn left and that leads you to

880
01:09:19.640 --> 01:09:22.800
the thing. So there's a few lanes. Again, it's not

881
01:09:22.359 --> 01:09:26.159
a large store. There's free of stuff at the bottom.

882
01:09:26.760 --> 01:09:32.399
I did like the smell of the place. It's quite

883
01:09:32.439 --> 01:09:33.079
a nice smell.

884
01:09:33.159 --> 01:09:33.279
You know.

885
01:09:33.319 --> 01:09:38.319
There's lots of groceries and bread and vegetables and or sorry,

886
01:09:39.000 --> 01:09:47.640
vegetables and that you could feed your tor toys. Stop it.

887
01:09:51.640 --> 01:09:59.760
I think I just heard a fly. Well, I think

888
01:10:00.000 --> 01:10:05.600
I suppose just different yeah, dairy products. The fridges were there,

889
01:10:06.279 --> 01:10:09.039
so I guess the smell of the fridges, and it

890
01:10:09.119 --> 01:10:13.439
was just a nice, general, nice, quite quite nice smell.

891
01:10:14.840 --> 01:10:17.479
I think the supermarkets do smell quite nice. Actually, it's

892
01:10:17.479 --> 01:10:22.079
all that mixture of different things. Why I wasn't so

893
01:10:22.239 --> 01:10:25.119
keen on was the brown jacket I had to wear,

894
01:10:25.800 --> 01:10:28.439
because first of all, it was too tight and I

895
01:10:28.520 --> 01:10:32.159
was tiny back then. You know, I was like nine

896
01:10:32.199 --> 01:10:43.600
stone or something. It's like really really slim, and wow,

897
01:10:43.960 --> 01:10:53.000
I'm like six six stone heavier. It used to be

898
01:10:53.039 --> 01:10:56.560
seven stone heavier. But I lost this. I lost this

899
01:10:56.960 --> 01:11:02.119
some weird I did. I did. I did, and kept

900
01:11:02.119 --> 01:11:03.479
it off as well, which is pretty cool.

901
01:11:05.880 --> 01:11:06.000
Uh.

902
01:11:07.199 --> 01:11:07.479
Yeah.

903
01:11:07.520 --> 01:11:11.520
I didn't like it to smell weird, just smell weird.

904
01:11:11.680 --> 01:11:15.479
Just had a weird smell, and I thought, I don't

905
01:11:15.520 --> 01:11:18.239
want to smell weird. I'm only seventeen.

906
01:11:20.239 --> 01:11:22.000
Just I was.

907
01:11:21.960 --> 01:11:25.520
Hoping to one day get to hold someone's hand, you know,

908
01:11:25.520 --> 01:11:29.399
don't have romance. I didn't want to be walking around smelly.

909
01:11:32.119 --> 01:11:33.880
I don't know what it was. I think someone else

910
01:11:33.880 --> 01:11:36.439
had worn it before me. I took it home, I washed,

911
01:11:36.479 --> 01:11:40.800
it still had a weird kind of smell, and eventually

912
01:11:40.800 --> 01:11:43.760
I was able to get a bigger one. So I'd

913
01:11:43.840 --> 01:11:45.840
much rather have something that looks too big on me

914
01:11:45.920 --> 01:11:51.800
than something that looks too small on me. Plus it was, Yeah,

915
01:11:51.840 --> 01:11:59.920
it was uncomfortable. Uncomfortable, But then they did. They did

916
01:12:00.199 --> 01:12:06.000
used to employ kids like in the evening's, like part

917
01:12:06.039 --> 01:12:09.960
time stuff from school at the weekends and stuff, so

918
01:12:10.039 --> 01:12:14.000
I think they probably they had little sizes for the kids.

919
01:12:14.520 --> 01:12:22.199
I just happened to be kids size, even at seventeen. Yeah,

920
01:12:22.399 --> 01:12:25.279
that was ye. I wasn't a big fan out, but

921
01:12:25.279 --> 01:12:27.359
it was once I got a Yeah, I got a

922
01:12:27.399 --> 01:12:29.000
bigger one, but it was too long for me, so

923
01:12:29.000 --> 01:12:32.600
I had to roll the sleeves up. I don't know,

924
01:12:32.640 --> 01:12:37.159
what can you do? It's like it, okay, I need

925
01:12:39.920 --> 01:12:43.000
so I've got I've got a cardigan that I need

926
01:12:43.680 --> 01:12:48.399
to be bigger because of my body, but my I

927
01:12:48.439 --> 01:12:54.159
don't have long arms, so it kind of covers half

928
01:12:54.239 --> 01:12:59.520
my hands. But the shoulders and the upper body feels

929
01:13:00.439 --> 01:13:05.760
you know, it's just weird. Just what those what is it?

930
01:13:05.840 --> 01:13:13.760
Taro terodactyl, tero doctyl, pterodactyl, taroctable. You know the ones

931
01:13:13.800 --> 01:13:17.439
with little hands kangaroos, that's another one. Look at little

932
01:13:17.520 --> 01:13:20.520
arms and bigger body. Maybe that's me. I'm not quite

933
01:13:20.560 --> 01:13:28.600
that bad, but I don't have really yeah, I don't

934
01:13:28.640 --> 01:13:32.520
have long arms. I don't have like really short arms,

935
01:13:33.479 --> 01:13:36.479
but they're not long. They're not long enough to fit

936
01:13:36.520 --> 01:13:43.960
my body. Basically, my height is not My legs are

937
01:13:43.960 --> 01:13:47.439
not long enough to fit my body either. Come five

938
01:13:47.479 --> 01:13:52.119
for eight. My ideal weight should be like eleven and

939
01:13:52.159 --> 01:14:01.279
a half stone, and I'm not that and no eleven

940
01:14:01.319 --> 01:14:07.640
and a half stone. So even if I was twelve

941
01:14:07.640 --> 01:14:16.039
and a half or thirteen, then it's still that's overweight. Apparently,

942
01:14:17.920 --> 01:14:24.439
So my weight for my height is ridiculous. You know,

943
01:14:24.479 --> 01:14:27.239
I should be like seven foot tall from my height

944
01:14:27.880 --> 01:14:30.960
for my height for my weight, I should probably be

945
01:14:31.079 --> 01:14:38.159
about six two six three six five six four. To

946
01:14:38.239 --> 01:14:41.880
be my my weight, I should be yeah, about six

947
01:14:42.239 --> 01:14:47.840
six foot five, maybe six three. I could get away

948
01:14:47.880 --> 01:14:53.159
of it at six three six two, you know, well set,

949
01:14:53.920 --> 01:14:57.199
heavy but quite tall. I could get I could do that,

950
01:14:58.159 --> 01:15:04.279
but I'm not. I'm stumpy and like I wouldn't look

951
01:15:04.319 --> 01:15:09.680
at her place on the new swat snow White movie.

952
01:15:10.319 --> 01:15:15.199
I don't mean taking her place, and she'd live in

953
01:15:15.439 --> 01:15:20.520
another acting job after that. I've watched a bit of

954
01:15:20.560 --> 01:15:25.640
snow White, the new one, and it's I'd say, it's weird, right,

955
01:15:28.800 --> 01:15:33.800
just leave her alone. That's that's that's my opinion. It's weird.

956
01:15:33.800 --> 01:15:37.199
It's just that really really went for her because she

957
01:15:37.359 --> 01:15:43.199
was just talking like a teenager. She's a teenager, or

958
01:15:43.239 --> 01:15:45.039
maybe she's in her early twenties. I don't know, but

959
01:15:45.079 --> 01:15:48.039
she just she just she was just talking away that

960
01:15:48.560 --> 01:15:53.039
she talked to, just being herself, and I really really

961
01:15:53.079 --> 01:15:58.720
went for her. It's like, leave her alone. And I

962
01:15:58.760 --> 01:16:00.720
didn't think of that in a sense of like a

963
01:16:00.840 --> 01:16:03.159
father figure, because I don't feel like a father figure

964
01:16:03.199 --> 01:16:10.119
towards a young woman, just from a you know, a

965
01:16:10.239 --> 01:16:17.560
human perspective. Leave alone. It's snow White. Don't mess with

966
01:16:17.680 --> 01:16:25.359
snow White. Show some respect for the Snowy the Snowy one.

967
01:16:27.800 --> 01:16:31.359
Do you think that snow White did she have who

968
01:16:31.439 --> 01:16:33.840
is it had blonde hair in the Disney movies, because

969
01:16:33.840 --> 01:16:36.000
you'd think snow White would have blonde hair. I don't

970
01:16:36.039 --> 01:16:40.520
know why, like just blonde. I don't know snow, maybe

971
01:16:40.560 --> 01:16:47.439
because white snow is white. Who had blonde hair? Goldilocks?

972
01:16:48.039 --> 01:16:51.319
Suppose that makes sense, wouldn't it Goldilocks? But then she'd

973
01:16:51.319 --> 01:16:55.800
have golden hair, not white hair or blonde hair. Rather,

974
01:16:59.800 --> 01:17:04.840
who else is the sleeping beauty? It's a Goldilock sleeping beauty.

975
01:17:05.079 --> 01:17:11.359
Rapunzel shu Apunzel. I don't know what color hair she had.

976
01:17:11.600 --> 01:17:22.159
She had long hair, didn't she Rapunzel? M Still one

01:17:43.279 --> 01:17:45.680
I see. That's the only let it go and the

984
01:17:45.680 --> 01:17:48.159
cold doesn't bother me anyway. It's the only only bits

985
01:17:48.199 --> 01:17:53.640
I remember. I liked that movie, Yeah I did. And

986
01:17:53.680 --> 01:17:55.640
what is it? The silly? That is it? The Snowman?

987
01:17:55.760 --> 01:18:03.560
He's good in that as well. Yeah, that's got to

988
01:18:03.600 --> 01:18:05.720
be the first role that he ever had where people

989
01:18:05.800 --> 01:18:10.479
weren't judging on his appearance, blind me leave the man alone.

990
01:18:11.760 --> 01:18:15.640
He can't like is hether to overweight? Or like they

991
01:18:15.680 --> 01:18:18.680
moan him? You've lost a lot of weight? Are you okay, like,

992
01:18:19.239 --> 01:18:26.359
leave him alone. He's a funny acts. I'm very in

993
01:18:26.399 --> 01:18:30.479
a supportive, supporting actors kind of mood at the moment.

994
01:18:31.000 --> 01:18:38.159
Oh yes, did you know that the It's not really

995
01:18:38.199 --> 01:18:46.800
related to biscuits, but Canelo fight against Crawford, which is

996
01:18:46.840 --> 01:18:52.439
on in September. I think it's going to be on Netflix. Netflix,

997
01:18:54.159 --> 01:18:56.279
So I signed up to Netflix because it's going to

998
01:18:56.319 --> 01:18:58.319
be free. Well it's not really free, but it's going

999
01:18:58.399 --> 01:19:02.399
to be streamed, not pay per view. One of the

1000
01:19:02.439 --> 01:19:10.600
biggest fights I would say of the year, personally, the

1001
01:19:10.680 --> 01:19:17.159
most exciting fights of the year for boxing fans. Fourthening Canelos.

1002
01:19:18.960 --> 01:19:24.760
It's a great fight. It would have been, yeah, I

1003
01:19:24.760 --> 01:19:33.079
mean as far as exciting fights go, boxing wise, I mean,

1004
01:19:33.119 --> 01:19:40.920
you've got the the World heavyweight Championship with Usik and Dubois,

1005
01:19:41.000 --> 01:19:43.880
but they've already fought before. So although it's exciting, it's

1006
01:19:43.960 --> 01:19:45.960
July the nineteenth, and I'm going to be watching it

1007
01:19:46.079 --> 01:19:53.840
one percent hopefully, and I'm looking forward to it, But

1008
01:19:53.920 --> 01:20:00.479
they have fought before and Canelo and Usik beating, so

1009
01:20:00.600 --> 01:20:07.199
that doesn't have the same excitement as Crawford Canelo because

1010
01:20:07.239 --> 01:20:14.199
they've never fought before and they both they're both broken

1011
01:20:14.319 --> 01:20:18.239
records in their own way. I mean, no one, there's

1012
01:20:18.279 --> 01:20:24.479
no boxer, there's no box there's no active boxer around

1013
01:20:24.560 --> 01:20:31.439
today that can match Canelo's boxing record, his professional record.

1014
01:20:31.680 --> 01:20:35.560
Not about how many wins he's had, just how many

1015
01:20:36.319 --> 01:20:42.079
names he's fought, how many big names he's actually conquered,

1016
01:20:42.239 --> 01:20:45.640
whether he beat them or not. Actually, he's just fought

1017
01:20:45.960 --> 01:20:52.560
so many people and won so many titles. But then,

1018
01:20:52.680 --> 01:20:58.119
but Crawford is unified two different divisions. It's the three

1019
01:20:58.119 --> 01:21:04.199
weight world champion, and he's unified three divisions. I think

1020
01:21:05.000 --> 01:21:08.079
or is unified two divisions and won three world titles

1021
01:21:08.520 --> 01:21:10.920
and he's eight. Yeah, he's won three. I think it's

1022
01:21:11.760 --> 01:21:16.399
I think he's one world titles in three divisions, three

1023
01:21:16.399 --> 01:21:22.520
weight classes. He's unified in two weight classes. And if

1024
01:21:22.560 --> 01:21:27.159
he's fighting Canelo, who holds all the belts in super middleweight.

1025
01:21:27.560 --> 01:21:30.359
So if he wins that, he will be the first

1026
01:21:31.119 --> 01:21:40.119
boxer in history to be unified in three different weight divisions. Now,

1027
01:21:40.159 --> 01:21:45.479
Canelo is already one, regardless of what anyone says, is

1028
01:21:45.479 --> 01:21:48.399
one of the greatest boxes of our generation for what

1029
01:21:48.479 --> 01:21:56.720
is accomplished, just what he's done is just phenomenal, and

1030
01:21:56.760 --> 01:21:59.159
he's potentially on the slide, but even on the slide,

1031
01:21:59.159 --> 01:22:04.000
he's still beating the one. So they's always on a

1032
01:22:04.039 --> 01:22:07.039
slide because he's getting old. Now he's what is he

1033
01:22:07.199 --> 01:22:11.119
thirty three or thirty four, thirty five? Maybe now he's

1034
01:22:11.159 --> 01:22:16.479
been boxing since he was fifteen, I think, But professionally,

1035
01:22:16.479 --> 01:22:21.560
I mean, he's been a professional fighter for what twenty years.

1036
01:22:22.000 --> 01:22:26.319
He's won so many world titles. I don't know if

1037
01:22:26.359 --> 01:22:29.640
anyone else has won as many titles as him, as

1038
01:22:29.640 --> 01:22:35.880
many divisions as him. Maybe Pakio may Mayweather in Pacio

1039
01:22:36.880 --> 01:22:46.000
Pakio Paki Hoo. I think Pakio had seven different divisions,

1040
01:22:46.000 --> 01:22:53.199
seven different weight divisions, and almost I almost believe that

1041
01:22:53.279 --> 01:22:58.720
this was just like fake news. Pakio is actually coming

1042
01:22:58.760 --> 01:23:08.720
back after year of professional boxing, years of like proper

1043
01:23:08.840 --> 01:23:13.720
you know, fighting big names and whatever, and he's fighting

1044
01:23:13.760 --> 01:23:19.279
for a world title. No warmup fights. He's fighting straight

1045
01:23:19.319 --> 01:23:25.079
away for a world title. And I will watch it,

1046
01:23:26.479 --> 01:23:30.279
but I do wonder, like, I mean, he's not the

1047
01:23:30.319 --> 01:23:33.960
first one to do that, but he's been out of

1048
01:23:33.960 --> 01:23:44.000
the ring for quite a long time. You know, when

1049
01:23:44.039 --> 01:23:49.520
Sugar O Leonard came back to beat Marvin Hagler, he'd

1050
01:23:49.520 --> 01:23:51.680
been out of the ring for a good couple of

1051
01:23:51.800 --> 01:23:55.159
years or so, but I think many's been out of the

1052
01:23:55.199 --> 01:23:58.760
ring for five or six years. He's had a couple

1053
01:23:58.760 --> 01:24:03.039
of exhibitions fights, maybe they went on his record as

1054
01:24:03.079 --> 01:24:10.800
being professional fights, but he hasn't fought any boxers. I

1055
01:24:10.800 --> 01:24:13.479
think he fought like a kickboxer, but in a ring.

1056
01:24:14.239 --> 01:24:16.359
I think it was a kickboxing world champion, but it's

1057
01:24:16.399 --> 01:24:20.760
still mootai or something. And there was one fight he

1058
01:24:20.800 --> 01:24:23.399
had when he just kept knocking a bloke down like so,

1059
01:24:23.439 --> 01:24:26.319
He's had a few fights like that over the years,

1060
01:24:26.600 --> 01:24:30.399
but professionally, I don't think he's fought for six at

1061
01:24:30.479 --> 01:24:35.239
least six years, maybe longer as an actual contender in

1062
01:24:35.279 --> 01:24:40.920
the world boxing scene. And he goes straight into fighting

1063
01:24:40.960 --> 01:24:47.000
for a world title and he's what he's about forty

1064
01:24:47.000 --> 01:24:51.000
four now, I think, or forty five or older, maybe

1065
01:24:51.039 --> 01:24:55.840
even I don't know, getting onto fifty. I think maybe, yeah,

1066
01:24:55.840 --> 01:24:58.880
I think he's getting on. He can't be getting onto fifty,

1067
01:24:58.960 --> 01:25:02.800
can he? He's in his forties early forties, I think.

1068
01:25:04.039 --> 01:25:06.359
But then that makes me think, you know, like I

1069
01:25:06.399 --> 01:25:09.560
hear people going on about well, I can hear people,

1070
01:25:09.840 --> 01:25:11.960
what's this got to do about you. Of course got to

1071
01:25:11.960 --> 01:25:15.119
go back to boxing, and what are the biscuits? We

1072
01:25:15.159 --> 01:25:17.000
were really interested in the biscuits and then you're talking

1073
01:25:17.000 --> 01:25:20.880
about boxing again. I'll be honest with you, I think

1074
01:25:20.880 --> 01:25:24.079
I've run out of biscuits stories. I didn't think i'd

1075
01:25:24.079 --> 01:25:27.039
ever say that out loud as a sentence. I never

1076
01:25:27.079 --> 01:25:34.239
thought i'd come out of my mouth. Suddenly the heavyweights,

1077
01:25:35.319 --> 01:25:42.119
you know, the people talking about heavyweights or the internet again. Oh,

1078
01:25:42.760 --> 01:25:46.720
Dillian White, he's thirty eight years old. Now he's you know,

1079
01:25:46.840 --> 01:25:51.399
he's got most of the tumor, is going to be

1080
01:25:51.399 --> 01:25:55.520
fighting him in September, and he doesn't stand a chance

1081
01:25:55.520 --> 01:26:00.239
against him because he's twenty years old. And Dillian, why

1082
01:26:00.479 --> 01:26:03.920
is thirty eight? Doesn't hands down the hope against the

1083
01:26:03.960 --> 01:26:09.520
young man. And then it's like if everyone's forgotten George Foreman,

1084
01:26:11.199 --> 01:26:13.680
he didn't come back until it was about thirty eight,

1085
01:26:14.760 --> 01:26:19.319
and he won the world title at forty four or

1086
01:26:19.439 --> 01:26:23.199
forty five, forty four forty five. He fought for the

1087
01:26:23.199 --> 01:26:30.319
world title twice before that, and against Tommy Morrison and

1088
01:26:31.399 --> 01:26:38.399
Evander Hollyfield, and eventually he did win it, so he

1089
01:26:39.560 --> 01:26:41.880
had to fight to get it. He doesn't just handed it.

1090
01:26:42.319 --> 01:26:43.920
You know, he had to, He had to have loads

1091
01:26:43.920 --> 01:26:46.520
of twenty odd fights before he got a chance to

1092
01:26:46.800 --> 01:26:50.920
fight for the world title the second time round. And

1093
01:26:53.000 --> 01:27:01.359
they're writing people off who were less than forty. It's just,

1094
01:27:01.600 --> 01:27:08.520
I don't know, just it seemed to have forgotten. And

1095
01:27:08.520 --> 01:27:13.319
then you've got Desic desic Derek Chsaura, who's a handful

1096
01:27:13.399 --> 01:27:20.319
for anyone. Its really weird. It's like Derek I can't

1097
01:27:20.399 --> 01:27:25.039
say his name today, Derek Chasaura. He's he's been winning

1098
01:27:25.119 --> 01:27:28.880
quite a few fights lately. He's really good. He's exciting,

1099
01:27:29.159 --> 01:27:39.119
exciting to watch, and he's nearing forty now. He thought,

1100
01:27:40.279 --> 01:27:43.479
and Dillian, why that he's he's not been very active,

1101
01:27:43.560 --> 01:27:49.960
but he's had a great career. Tyson Fury, who's some

1102
01:27:49.960 --> 01:27:51.680
people say, oh, he's not any good.

1103
01:27:52.000 --> 01:27:52.479
Not really.

1104
01:27:53.079 --> 01:28:01.479
Tyson Fury made both of those boxes look awful. I

1105
01:28:01.479 --> 01:28:05.880
mean really, he made them both look awful. It looked

1106
01:28:05.920 --> 01:28:10.800
effortless for him. Isn't it weird? The amount no matter

1107
01:28:10.840 --> 01:28:14.720
what you do, like the boxes, no matter how successful

1108
01:28:14.760 --> 01:28:18.680
you are, and the minute you lose like uk now

1109
01:28:18.840 --> 01:28:22.560
is no good. It's like, okay, who did he lose to?

1110
01:28:23.359 --> 01:28:28.640
He lost to usick, who will possibly go down as

1111
01:28:28.680 --> 01:28:31.560
being one of the greatest heavyweights ever, one of the

1112
01:28:31.600 --> 01:28:36.479
greatest heavyweights. Definitely of this era, this generation, these the

1113
01:28:36.520 --> 01:28:39.880
last twenty years, I'd say, because of what he's achieved,

1114
01:28:42.600 --> 01:28:47.560
unbeaten at the moment. Yeah, I just I don't know.

1115
01:28:50.880 --> 01:28:55.199
Can't we just get along, That's all I'm saying. Let's

1116
01:28:55.239 --> 01:28:57.800
just all have a cup of tea and some biscuits.

1117
01:29:00.920 --> 01:29:04.399
So I don't know that was all weird recording. I'm

1118
01:29:04.439 --> 01:29:08.399
going to go, thank you for listening, and remember to

1119
01:29:08.439 --> 01:29:12.039
be kind to yourself because you do deserve to be happy.

1120
01:29:13.159 --> 01:29:17.399
Be gentle with yourself, because you deserve to feel safe,

1121
01:29:17.600 --> 01:29:36.359
lots of love. Bye, relax in a more deep and

1122
01:29:38.119 --> 01:29:45.520
meaningful way. Maybe in a way that can not just

1123
01:29:45.800 --> 01:29:55.880
allow you to feel calmer now and throughout the time

1124
01:29:56.560 --> 01:30:04.960
we've spend together here, not just relaxed at the end

1125
01:30:05.000 --> 01:30:09.439
of the recording when it's finished and you can enjoy

1126
01:30:09.600 --> 01:30:27.000
that sense of comfort and peace, but also I think

1127
01:30:27.039 --> 01:30:38.239
it would be nice to have those feelings of relaxation

1128
01:30:40.600 --> 01:30:54.840
continue for longer after the recording is ended, so that

1129
01:30:54.960 --> 01:31:07.359
you can still benefit from listening to my voice. Maybe

1130
01:31:07.439 --> 01:31:18.840
in a few hours time, perhaps tomorrow, and then by

1131
01:31:18.960 --> 01:31:26.920
listening regularly, especially if you find like some people do

1132
01:31:27.279 --> 01:31:30.960
and myself as well. I sometimes I find one particular

1133
01:31:31.039 --> 01:31:41.079
recording that really resonates with me, and I just listen

1134
01:31:41.159 --> 01:31:46.439
to it over and over again every morning, every evening.

1135
01:31:54.079 --> 01:31:58.720
There was this recording from We're going back to about

1136
01:31:58.880 --> 01:32:03.880
nineteen ninety nine. It was it wasn't hypnosis, but it

1137
01:32:03.920 --> 01:32:09.000
was a guided visualizations, so it kind of was hypnosis really,

1138
01:32:11.479 --> 01:32:16.680
and I managed to find it again and it still

1139
01:32:16.760 --> 01:32:22.359
has the same effect on me. And part of it

1140
01:32:22.479 --> 01:32:37.239
was the person's voice relaxed me, just felt so peaceful,

1141
01:32:39.359 --> 01:32:45.880
and I'd look forward to listening to her in the

1142
01:32:45.920 --> 01:32:56.600
morning and in the evening. And I knew before even

1143
01:32:57.359 --> 01:33:05.840
pressing the play button that since I've done that pressed

1144
01:33:05.840 --> 01:33:14.399
the play button. This was in the days of CD

1145
01:33:14.600 --> 01:33:23.279
players pressed the play button. In fact, it might have

1146
01:33:23.359 --> 01:33:27.680
even been a tape tape recorder. I'd lie down on

1147
01:33:27.720 --> 01:33:40.560
the bed and then even without necessarily listening to her

1148
01:33:40.760 --> 01:33:53.680
words because I had them memorized. Really, it was as

1149
01:33:53.720 --> 01:34:04.439
if my body knew exactly what to do, and the

1150
01:34:04.600 --> 01:34:26.640
muscles just almost went into automatic relaxation, and I remember

1151
01:34:26.720 --> 01:34:40.800
my mind would slow down. Now now I was listening

1152
01:34:40.840 --> 01:34:47.640
to this recording in the early days of learning hypnosis,

1153
01:34:50.159 --> 01:34:58.000
and long before I ever made any videos or audio

1154
01:34:58.039 --> 01:35:02.800
recordings myself, because I didn't start doing that till two

1155
01:35:02.840 --> 01:35:22.159
thousand and six, I knew, I knew how helpful I

1156
01:35:22.239 --> 01:35:32.520
found being able to just let go, to have that

1157
01:35:32.880 --> 01:35:45.520
trust in the person that I'm listening to, knowing that

1158
01:35:45.600 --> 01:35:53.920
it's going to be just as relaxing, if not more so.

1159
01:35:56.560 --> 01:36:03.560
Each time you hear my voice, you may feel the same.

1160
01:36:09.920 --> 01:36:24.600
Some people have been listening to me for over a decade,

1161
01:36:25.359 --> 01:36:29.399
maybe not solidly, obviously not twenty four hours a day,

1162
01:36:31.119 --> 01:36:37.640
but maybe people come back. Some people may be listen

1163
01:36:37.720 --> 01:36:54.279
every day. That's something that I do which you may

1164
01:36:54.399 --> 01:36:59.039
not realize by listening.

1165
01:37:03.119 --> 01:37:03.359
Is.

1166
01:37:07.319 --> 01:37:21.680
When I record these recordings. Now, for example, I also

1167
01:37:23.159 --> 01:37:34.399
am affected by the words that I say. So if

1168
01:37:34.399 --> 01:37:43.560
I said to you, focus on your feet, notice your

1169
01:37:43.640 --> 01:37:55.560
feet relaxing, I will be focusing on my feet. I

1170
01:37:55.640 --> 01:38:13.439
will be noticing my feet relaxing. If I said, focus

1171
01:38:13.479 --> 01:38:21.840
on your hands, and maybe notice the difference between each hand,

1172
01:38:25.520 --> 01:38:32.279
Perhaps notice the the air in the room, the temperature

1173
01:38:32.359 --> 01:38:44.239
of the room, on the backs of your hands, you

1174
01:38:44.319 --> 01:38:48.399
may start to notice what almost feels like a very

1175
01:38:48.560 --> 01:38:56.920
light breeze, even though there may not be any type

1176
01:38:56.920 --> 01:39:09.840
of breeze at all where you are right now. And

1177
01:39:09.960 --> 01:39:21.159
as you become aware of your hands, I'm also aware

1178
01:39:23.840 --> 01:39:32.439
of how relaxed my hands our feeling.

1179
01:39:33.840 --> 01:39:49.439
Now and when.

1180
01:39:49.279 --> 01:39:56.239
It comes to potentially drifting off to sleep, which may

1181
01:39:56.279 --> 01:40:12.640
be the reason you're listening, I also feel drowsy when

1182
01:40:12.680 --> 01:40:25.920
I make these recordings. I also notice my mind drifting.

1183
01:40:33.800 --> 01:40:46.399
In fact, at times I've actually fallen asleep without even noticing,

1184
01:40:51.279 --> 01:41:02.359
and then I carry on talking. It's only when I

1185
01:41:02.399 --> 01:41:11.840
listen back to do the editing I hear snoring and

1186
01:41:11.880 --> 01:41:21.720
I think, I don't remember snoring. I remember talking. This

1187
01:41:22.079 --> 01:41:29.399
snoring was a pig turned up. That's why I sound

1188
01:41:29.520 --> 01:41:39.239
like when I snare and I get really into the

1189
01:41:39.239 --> 01:41:57.439
whole experience. I don't know how you feel. How relaxed

1190
01:41:57.520 --> 01:42:07.720
do you feel in your feet, how relaxed you feel

1191
01:42:07.840 --> 01:42:34.439
in your hands. I have noticed more and more that

1192
01:42:34.640 --> 01:42:50.840
the more relaxed, deeper level of comfort you feel, the

1193
01:42:51.039 --> 01:43:11.640
easier your breathing becomes. It's almost like that additional muscle relaxation.

1194
01:43:15.960 --> 01:43:37.000
So this allows you to breathe easier without necessarily focusing

1195
01:43:39.199 --> 01:44:04.840
on your breath, however, being able to notice the ease

1196
01:44:08.199 --> 01:44:34.800
in which you breathe so naturally, you breathe so very

1197
01:44:35.039 --> 01:45:23.760
easily and smoothly. Whenever I imagine my breathing improving, when

1198
01:45:23.800 --> 01:45:39.079
I've got my eyes closed, I tend to visualize a

1199
01:45:39.199 --> 01:45:55.800
beautiful field with trees and flowers producing all that life

1200
01:45:55.920 --> 01:46:31.520
giving oxygen. It feels nice to, if nothing else, just

1201
01:46:31.960 --> 01:47:06.239
taking some time away from everything, enjoying that feeling of

1202
01:47:09.920 --> 01:47:56.800
peace serenity with a joyful heart. Time seems to just

1203
01:47:58.640 --> 01:48:42.680
drip by so very slowly, relaxed, so deeply peaceful, completely

1204
01:48:48.560 --> 01:49:37.840
unattached to any thoughts whatsoever in this moment, completely free

1205
01:49:51.000 --> 01:50:42.399
noticing that you mind has slowed down. Slowed down because

1206
01:50:42.560 --> 01:51:11.159
nothing really requires your attention. You can enjoy the physical

1207
01:51:11.479 --> 01:51:28.640
sensations of allowing the stress to rip out of your body,

1208
01:51:29.600 --> 01:51:52.640
to appear out of every part of your body, and

1209
01:51:52.960 --> 01:52:32.479
being released from your brain, d your mind slowly but surely,

1210
01:52:39.319 --> 01:53:15.119
The muscles in your les relax mhm rhs really so

1211
01:53:15.600 --> 01:53:56.479
very deeply, res so deeply, and the feelings, the pleasant

1212
01:53:56.640 --> 01:54:21.479
feelings in your arms and shoulders deepening each part of

1213
01:54:21.560 --> 01:55:03.199
your body further and deeper and deeper, noticing the feeling's

1214
01:55:03.600 --> 01:56:03.840
in the back of your neck, feelings in your wrists, muscles,

1215
01:56:05.920 --> 01:56:43.199
in front of your body. I all say, feeling peaceful deeply,

1216
01:57:00.239 --> 01:57:10.479
as a sense of peace spreads through your very core.

1217
01:57:41.000 --> 01:58:00.920
Even when you focus on your mind, your mind becomes

1218
01:58:08.279 --> 01:59:31.119
bee and slowerven, deeper, relaxing, so very slow. Your stomach

1219
01:59:45.239 --> 02:00:27.239
p's for in your stomach, your back. Notice Notice how

1220
02:00:27.479 --> 02:00:45.600
relaxed you'd now fear in the hole of your back.

1221
02:01:10.640 --> 02:01:19.800
You spy from your brain all the way down the

1222
02:01:19.840 --> 02:01:30.520
middle of your back, sending and receiving millions of messages

1223
02:01:31.239 --> 02:02:01.039
every day, deep comfort, increasing deeplyan faxed.

1224
02:02:30.680 --> 02:02:31.039
You me.

1225
02:02:57.079 --> 02:03:10.880
Nice, spreading those signals down your spine or cord into air,

1226
02:03:11.119 --> 02:03:30.640
every part of your body, your shins, and your calf muscles.

1227
02:03:57.760 --> 02:04:30.319
We're elbows. Feelings of peace and tranquility spreading through your body,

1228
02:04:32.279 --> 02:04:48.560
tips of your toes, to your eyes, your fingers, all

1229
02:04:48.560 --> 02:05:34.359
the way to your lower back. Letting go, retinker peace,

1230
02:05:50.159 --> 02:06:20.840
drifting mind, this wandering away, happy to let go, let

1231
02:06:20.880 --> 02:07:26.319
go completely, let go, so tranquil the whole body, enjoying

1232
02:07:26.359 --> 02:09:41.960
a sensor listing go, he even more peace for enjoy

1233
02:09:47.680 --> 02:09:55.880
the space, this space of peace.

1234
02:09:59.439 --> 02:10:27.880
Hen fifty so firy, fy.

1235
02:10:31.760 --> 02:12:26.560
Relaxed, letting go. Maybe we can just focus on the

1236
02:12:26.680 --> 02:13:02.000
different parts of your body, just to notice a feelhead

1237
02:13:02.279 --> 02:14:04.119
in your eyes it too, so lose, noticing the sense

1238
02:14:04.159 --> 02:14:23.520
of complete freedom, absolute freedom.

1239
02:15:09.119 --> 02:15:23.079
Rif rif.

1240
02:15:35.479 --> 02:17:22.920
Pea'ce for energy peace to breathe such easier loose. You

1241
02:17:23.159 --> 02:18:28.000
may have or may not have noticed your mind drifting peaceful, moveingly,

1242
02:18:28.120 --> 02:18:48.360
even more deeply in the direction of total blissful pace,

1243
02:18:52.520 --> 02:20:56.360
blissful pace, Christ total peace. Come so calm, letting go,

1244
02:21:21.239 --> 02:22:32.200
peace with mind rexed forty so relaxed, so relaxed. Your

1245
02:22:32.360 --> 02:23:05.280
body feels almost invisible, so very relaxed. I'm peaceful, so

1246
02:23:13.040 --> 02:24:14.600
peace real liqua, so peaceful. And you could start to

1247
02:24:14.840 --> 02:24:24.399
notice that you are feeling more relaxed, even though I've

1248
02:24:24.680 --> 02:24:36.440
not purposely focused your mind upon that sense of physical

1249
02:24:36.680 --> 02:24:44.559
comfort that is growing within you throughout your body, and

1250
02:24:44.600 --> 02:24:54.399
your mind starts to slow down, And that could be

1251
02:24:54.959 --> 02:25:02.879
almost in recognition of I guess my speech not being

1252
02:25:03.120 --> 02:25:20.440
particularly fast, and things just generally feel calmer. Just by

1253
02:25:21.280 --> 02:25:30.440
listening to my voice, you give yourself an opportunity to

1254
02:25:30.559 --> 02:25:36.520
take a break from the day, take a break from

1255
02:25:37.200 --> 02:25:44.520
your life as it is, and to give yourself a rest,

1256
02:25:47.079 --> 02:25:54.399
giving yourself permission to take some time off, and to

1257
02:25:54.520 --> 02:26:00.479
allow your body to relax and allow your mind to

1258
02:26:00.600 --> 02:26:11.920
slow down, which in turn releases the tension and it

1259
02:26:12.120 --> 02:26:21.079
stresses that you had in your body. It's almost as

1260
02:26:21.079 --> 02:26:26.920
if the parts of your body just open up, allowing

1261
02:26:27.000 --> 02:26:39.000
the negativity out and at the same time replacing that

1262
02:26:39.159 --> 02:26:48.799
negativity with positive heathing energy, which then fills your body

1263
02:26:48.879 --> 02:27:00.399
up and your mind to also starts to apprec shape

1264
02:27:01.159 --> 02:27:19.559
those feelings of increasing confidence and almost uplifting feeling, positive healing,

1265
02:27:22.719 --> 02:27:31.319
an energy that spreads through your body like a wave

1266
02:27:33.600 --> 02:27:45.760
of comfort. And all this comes from just allowing yourself

1267
02:27:48.559 --> 02:27:53.799
a few minutes, maybe half an hour, however long you

1268
02:27:53.879 --> 02:28:06.920
want it to be, just rest and allow your mind

1269
02:28:07.079 --> 02:28:17.959
and your body to almost reset itself to the settings

1270
02:28:18.000 --> 02:28:33.600
of comfort and relaxation, calmness, which allows more room for

1271
02:28:35.000 --> 02:28:47.000
feelings of pleasure and happiness to move around your body

1272
02:28:48.760 --> 02:28:55.280
and into your mind, almost as if your mind and

1273
02:28:55.319 --> 02:29:07.239
your body are sinking together, almost mirroring each other with

1274
02:29:07.319 --> 02:29:21.440
that growing positivity and calmness, and it feels nice. It

1275
02:29:21.479 --> 02:29:27.479
really does feel nice to know that you are the

1276
02:29:27.479 --> 02:29:40.840
one that has allowed yourself to feel more comfort and

1277
02:29:41.000 --> 02:30:00.360
to experience more of this deep relaxation spreading throughout your body.

1278
02:30:01.879 --> 02:30:07.239
And as I focus on each part of your body,

1279
02:30:09.600 --> 02:30:21.639
you can notice that that part becomes even more relaxed

1280
02:30:23.680 --> 02:30:32.600
just by focusing on it. It becomes even more calm

1281
02:30:32.760 --> 02:30:43.559
and comfortable just by focusing. And as I move down

1282
02:30:43.719 --> 02:30:51.360
your body, starting at your head, the parts that you've

1283
02:30:51.639 --> 02:31:01.600
already focused on will continue to relax deeply, and those

1284
02:31:01.760 --> 02:31:08.479
parts that we've not yet focused on or just automatically

1285
02:31:12.239 --> 02:31:21.040
release any remain intention in anticipation of even more comfort

1286
02:31:22.360 --> 02:31:33.079
about to come. Now, I'm going to start by focusing

1287
02:31:33.719 --> 02:31:40.239
on your forehead. Just being aware of the feelings of

1288
02:31:40.280 --> 02:31:50.600
your forehead and any background sounds like mister Herbert the

1289
02:31:50.680 --> 02:31:56.040
pigeon can just allow you to feel even more relaxed.

1290
02:32:00.239 --> 02:32:06.159
Means you're in the moment. This isn't this isn't a

1291
02:32:06.319 --> 02:32:15.200
sterile environment. This is the world. I live in the countryside,

1292
02:32:16.799 --> 02:32:26.799
so there's lots of nature sounds around. So as you

1293
02:32:26.920 --> 02:32:33.600
focus on your forehead, just notice how it becomes even

1294
02:32:34.239 --> 02:32:43.920
more relaxed as you focus only on my voice and

1295
02:32:44.000 --> 02:32:52.520
that part of your body. Moving down to your eyes,

1296
02:32:54.479 --> 02:33:05.639
focusing on your eyes, noticing how your eyelids feel so

1297
02:33:05.959 --> 02:33:15.680
heavy yet so light at the same time, and all

1298
02:33:15.719 --> 02:33:27.280
the muscles around your eyes relaxing completely. Moving your focus

1299
02:33:28.520 --> 02:33:35.200
down to your mouth, your lips, your tongue, your teeth,

1300
02:33:35.239 --> 02:33:42.520
and your gumbs in the whole of your mouth, relaxing,

1301
02:33:46.040 --> 02:33:56.239
calm and loose, as you focus now on your jaw,

1302
02:33:59.319 --> 02:34:02.920
not just the parts of your jaw near your mouth

1303
02:34:03.680 --> 02:34:08.000
and your chin, but all the way up the size

1304
02:34:08.040 --> 02:34:15.959
of your face to your ears, the hole of your jaw,

1305
02:34:17.520 --> 02:34:24.680
feeding more relaxed.

1306
02:34:28.079 --> 02:34:36.559
And calm.

1307
02:34:36.959 --> 02:34:46.120
Focusing on your neck, the front of your neck and

1308
02:34:46.159 --> 02:34:59.200
your throat relaxing and loose and calm. The sides of

1309
02:34:59.280 --> 02:35:04.559
your neck, the right and left side of your neck,

1310
02:35:07.479 --> 02:35:18.360
relax and loose and calm.

1311
02:35:21.840 --> 02:35:28.719
And now the back of your neck, focusing on the

1312
02:35:28.799 --> 02:35:39.239
back of your neck, letting go of any tension that

1313
02:35:39.399 --> 02:35:41.680
may have been there before.

1314
02:35:42.920 --> 02:35:57.040
And enjoying that sense of increasing comfort and release that

1315
02:35:57.280 --> 02:36:07.680
you can experience. And the back of your neck, moving

1316
02:36:07.920 --> 02:36:13.879
down your back and moving the either side of your

1317
02:36:13.959 --> 02:36:17.040
spine right from the top.

1318
02:36:16.840 --> 02:36:17.799
Of your back.

1319
02:36:19.440 --> 02:36:23.159
All the way down to the bottom of your back,

1320
02:36:29.120 --> 02:36:40.440
down to your lower back. And as you move up

1321
02:36:40.479 --> 02:36:49.319
and down your spine. You can feel the muscles either

1322
02:36:49.440 --> 02:37:03.040
side of your spine relaxing even more. And as those

1323
02:37:03.159 --> 02:37:12.600
muscles relax, that sense of comfort starts to spread outwards

1324
02:37:14.159 --> 02:37:23.799
from your spine into both sides of your back, the

1325
02:37:23.840 --> 02:37:27.399
top of your back, the middle, and your lower back.

1326
02:37:30.879 --> 02:37:38.079
And as you scan gently and slowly up and down

1327
02:37:38.239 --> 02:37:43.319
your back, there's the muscles in the top of your

1328
02:37:43.399 --> 02:37:53.360
back relax and become looser. The muscles in the middle

1329
02:37:53.360 --> 02:38:00.280
of your back also seem to just almost divine made

1330
02:38:00.520 --> 02:38:13.760
from each other, separating and almost melting, and in your

1331
02:38:13.840 --> 02:38:20.959
lower back it seems to be an extra special feeling

1332
02:38:24.920 --> 02:38:36.440
of comfort. The spreads into your hips, so down your

1333
02:38:36.520 --> 02:38:44.520
lower back, into your hips, into the area where your

1334
02:38:44.600 --> 02:38:53.600
cosis are, and into your buttocks, and all those muscles

1335
02:38:53.760 --> 02:39:05.280
that spread from your lower back into your hip area

1336
02:39:05.840 --> 02:39:22.520
start to melt, start to really let go, and even

1337
02:39:22.600 --> 02:39:29.280
know where about to focus on your shoulders. Your back

1338
02:39:29.559 --> 02:39:40.559
and your spine will continue to let go, continue to

1339
02:39:40.760 --> 02:39:55.959
relax so calmly, and as you focus on your shoulders,

1340
02:39:57.120 --> 02:40:05.440
you may notice that they're already yeah, feeding.

1341
02:40:05.200 --> 02:40:17.680
Really loose, already feeding.

1342
02:40:22.079 --> 02:40:39.479
Calm and then feeding those muscles then move from your

1343
02:40:39.600 --> 02:40:59.000
neck into your shoulders feel so soft and gentle, so

1344
02:40:59.399 --> 02:41:28.399
smooth and calm, and the feeding in your shoulders seems

1345
02:41:28.639 --> 02:41:36.399
to spread deep into your shoulders, that sense of relaxation,

1346
02:41:37.559 --> 02:41:49.879
not just traveling deeply into your muscles, but also relaxing.

1347
02:41:51.920 --> 02:41:53.319
The bones.

1348
02:41:58.719 --> 02:42:07.239
And moving all away to underneath your arms, relaxing that

1349
02:42:07.440 --> 02:42:12.760
whole area between the tops of your shoulders and underneath

1350
02:42:12.760 --> 02:42:31.959
your arms healing. You feel so relaxed and comfortable in

1351
02:42:32.000 --> 02:42:52.120
your shoulders. Who sends that deep healing message into your arms,

1352
02:42:58.520 --> 02:43:03.639
and you may feel almost as if your arms are

1353
02:43:03.719 --> 02:43:15.360
not even there, because they're so relaxed, so deeply relaxed,

1354
02:43:22.559 --> 02:43:57.879
so so calm.

1355
02:43:43.200 --> 02:43:43.360
So.

1356
02:43:50.000 --> 02:44:09.479
Loose, not feeling spreading all way down your arms, two elbows,

1357
02:44:12.719 --> 02:44:38.399
including your elbows circumforts spreads or away into your wrists,

1358
02:44:40.680 --> 02:44:55.840
your forearments and your wrists being so heavy. Yet at

1359
02:44:55.959 --> 02:45:43.680
the same time, sunlight and gentle focus Now on your hands,

1360
02:46:05.360 --> 02:46:37.000
my hands, so peaceful in your hands. There's a sense

1361
02:46:37.159 --> 02:47:03.120
of real peace. It just seems to feel so familiar

1362
02:47:06.559 --> 02:48:11.479
when your hands relax deeply fes your thingers. A thing

1363
02:48:11.799 --> 02:49:16.399
is said, lest you think its tips. Moving your attention

1364
02:49:17.760 --> 02:49:45.920
to the front of your body, so comfortable, moving your

1365
02:49:46.079 --> 02:51:12.920
focus to your legs, a lot muscles in your thighs,

1366
02:51:29.520 --> 02:52:07.000
your knees, so relaxed, a carved musselves, and just shams

1367
02:52:10.639 --> 02:53:04.799
compresedly fur.

1368
02:54:11.280 --> 02:54:12.440
The feathing.

1369
02:54:13.639 --> 02:54:40.399
Your feet, sir, peaceful, so calm, so peaceful, so calm,

1370
02:55:10.520 --> 02:55:17.120
so peaceful, so calm.

1371
02:55:21.040 --> 02:55:21.120
So.

1372
02:55:23.120 --> 02:55:54.680
Peace f RelA in peace, fall so calm, loveing that

1373
02:55:55.159 --> 02:56:15.799
deep relaxation, to spread the chest and just letting go

1374
02:56:17.959 --> 02:56:36.840
of everything. So I'm gonna start counting down now from

1375
02:56:36.920 --> 02:56:45.559
twenty down to one. You can imagine in a way

1376
02:56:45.639 --> 02:56:51.719
it's like just walking down some steps and each step

1377
02:56:52.120 --> 02:56:58.319
or twenty steps, and each step represents a level of comfort.

1378
02:57:01.799 --> 02:57:17.159
Each step represents a deepening of that comfort, and the

1379
02:57:17.399 --> 02:57:23.479
fervies you walk down those steps, the deeper and more

1380
02:57:23.520 --> 02:59:19.319
relaxed you feel. So starting with number twenty twenty, nineteen, eighteen, seventeen,

1381
03:00:05.559 --> 03:08:30.959
sirist eight fourteen fourteen too well five eight nine hey

1382
03:08:31.520 --> 03:15:01.079
seven four five four two.

1383
03:17:21.280 --> 03:17:21.520
One.

1384
03:18:11.120 --> 03:18:28.079
And now as you focus on your eyes, We're gonna

1385
03:18:28.159 --> 03:18:39.600
count down from ten dout to one, focusing just on

1386
03:18:39.760 --> 03:18:50.680
your eyes, your eyelids, the muscles around your eyes, your

1387
03:18:50.799 --> 03:19:00.239
eye walls themselves, our whole area that makes up your eye. Yeah,

1388
03:19:10.719 --> 03:19:15.959
and as we count down from ten down to one.

1389
03:19:18.559 --> 03:19:31.479
Whilst focus in on your eyes, you'll become twice is

1390
03:19:31.680 --> 03:19:43.559
relaxed with each number counting down, and you may find

1391
03:19:47.719 --> 03:19:53.479
the all you want to do is just drift off

1392
03:19:53.840 --> 03:20:02.959
to sleep. And if that's what you want, then just

1393
03:20:03.120 --> 03:20:16.200
allow yourself to do that. Now, focusing on your eyes,

1394
03:20:18.280 --> 03:20:23.719
I'm going to begin counting down from ten down to

1395
03:20:23.920 --> 03:23:31.959
one right now, ten nine eight seven s.

1396
03:24:36.319 --> 03:25:47.920
Five four.

1397
03:27:01.000 --> 03:28:07.440
Three two.

1398
03:29:35.200 --> 03:29:35.479
One.

1399
03:29:41.719 --> 03:29:58.399
So counted down from ten to one ten nine eight

1400
03:30:01.239 --> 03:30:26.040
seven six five four three two one. And maybe that

1401
03:30:26.239 --> 03:30:30.360
was a bit too quick in order to relax. Maybe

1402
03:30:30.399 --> 03:30:34.680
it's a bit too fast for you to notice the

1403
03:30:36.000 --> 03:30:42.799
calming of your body, maybe even a little bit of

1404
03:30:42.920 --> 03:30:46.879
pressure there, like you're counting down from ten to one.

1405
03:30:47.000 --> 03:30:50.360
Would you expect me to do? Man, expect me to

1406
03:30:50.440 --> 03:31:00.280
stick with floppy just because you're counting down. We could

1407
03:31:00.319 --> 03:31:04.079
try it again, but this time I go this lower.

1408
03:31:06.280 --> 03:31:11.159
This time, as you focus on the whole of your

1409
03:31:11.200 --> 03:31:19.559
body before we focus on your legs, just notice how

1410
03:31:19.680 --> 03:31:33.760
your body does start to feel more relaxed with every

1411
03:31:33.920 --> 03:32:06.959
number that I count down ten nine eight seven six

1412
03:32:15.399 --> 03:33:24.360
five four three two one, And just notice how how

1413
03:33:24.440 --> 03:33:34.520
you feel generally, how your body feels. It's not necessarily

1414
03:33:34.600 --> 03:33:45.000
even about counting down from ten to one. It's that

1415
03:33:45.319 --> 03:34:05.000
space that you have, that space between being active physically

1416
03:34:05.200 --> 03:34:13.959
or mentally to just sitting or lying down and just

1417
03:34:14.239 --> 03:34:20.120
being there, not doing anything, not saying anything, or needing

1418
03:34:20.399 --> 03:34:25.840
to think about anything. So it opens up a space,

1419
03:34:26.840 --> 03:34:35.959
you know, a bit of a space, a gap. And

1420
03:34:36.079 --> 03:34:40.639
the more I came down from ten to one, the

1421
03:34:40.719 --> 03:34:48.719
bigger that gap becomes. So there's that gap of calmness,

1422
03:34:50.120 --> 03:35:05.799
of comfort, relaxation. It's a nice feeling, and it moves

1423
03:35:07.360 --> 03:35:17.280
those stresses or discomforts physically or emotionally, moves them away.

1424
03:35:24.040 --> 03:35:25.040
Allows you.

1425
03:35:27.719 --> 03:35:28.239
To just.

1426
03:35:31.239 --> 03:35:37.959
Slow down. Someone to count again from ten down to one,

1427
03:35:38.360 --> 03:35:48.600
and notice that gap widening, the gap, And as it widens,

1428
03:35:48.680 --> 03:35:54.719
it's almost like the stress and attention falls into the

1429
03:35:54.799 --> 03:36:12.639
gap and gives you that distance, that space.

1430
03:36:15.040 --> 03:36:20.479
Now ten.

1431
03:36:24.840 --> 03:38:21.840
Nine, eight, seven, six, five, four, three two one. How

1432
03:38:21.920 --> 03:38:25.719
does your body feel.

1433
03:38:27.680 --> 03:38:27.840
Now?

1434
03:38:40.559 --> 03:38:55.840
Can you notice do you feeling calmer, the feeling more

1435
03:38:56.280 --> 03:39:23.680
relaxed as we now focus on your legs, just your legs.

1436
03:39:39.639 --> 03:39:59.760
We're just gonna start with focusing on your thighs. Of course,

1437
03:40:00.000 --> 03:40:04.799
it's not the most exciting thing to be doing because

1438
03:40:08.239 --> 03:40:10.920
I'm sure, like most of your body is not a

1439
03:40:11.040 --> 03:40:23.440
lot going on right now, Just focusing on the whole

1440
03:40:23.559 --> 03:40:29.959
of your thighs, the tops of your thighs, the sides

1441
03:40:30.120 --> 03:40:37.079
of your thighs, the bottoms of your thighs, your outer thighs,

1442
03:40:37.200 --> 03:40:42.120
and your inner thighs. Basically the whole of your thigh

1443
03:40:42.239 --> 03:40:51.000
that leads into your hip and it goes down to

1444
03:40:51.200 --> 03:41:05.239
your knee joints. Now, this is a big area. It's

1445
03:41:05.280 --> 03:41:10.760
a very heavy area. It's very strong, probably the strongest

1446
03:41:11.760 --> 03:41:24.920
muscles in your body or in your thighs. But I

1447
03:41:25.000 --> 03:41:33.319
don't think we perhaps give enough attention to our thighs.

1448
03:41:39.280 --> 03:41:50.000
Perhaps we don't acknowledge how important our thighs are to

1449
03:41:50.200 --> 03:42:10.799
our lives, how much they actually do for us all

1450
03:42:10.920 --> 03:42:21.360
through our lives. And it may seem sound really weird,

1451
03:42:21.479 --> 03:42:29.840
but I think that all of our body parts, especially

1452
03:42:29.959 --> 03:42:37.600
our thighs, need some TLC, a bit of love shown,

1453
03:42:38.600 --> 03:42:56.799
a bit of acknowledgement. I thank you gratitude for our

1454
03:42:56.959 --> 03:43:06.319
thighs do for us. And I know this may sound

1455
03:43:06.520 --> 03:43:12.840
it strange. Maybe you think, why am I, Surely I

1456
03:43:12.879 --> 03:43:18.040
should be out in the garden hugging a tree or something. Well,

1457
03:43:22.200 --> 03:43:24.479
it's hard to set a microphone up on a tree.

1458
03:43:25.520 --> 03:43:27.719
That's why I'm doing this indoors. Otherwise I would be

1459
03:43:27.799 --> 03:43:31.520
outside hugging a tree. Now I can't see the television

1460
03:43:31.559 --> 03:43:40.200
from the tree. If you move down to your knees

1461
03:43:42.079 --> 03:43:50.000
getting such an important part, and I think we don't

1462
03:43:50.120 --> 03:43:57.959
necessarily I'll speak for myself here, I don't necessarily appreciate

1463
03:44:00.040 --> 03:44:05.000
that my knees do for me until I have a

1464
03:44:05.079 --> 03:44:10.159
problem with my knee. It's occasionally, if I ever maybe

1465
03:44:10.200 --> 03:44:15.760
i'll bash it, or it's aching for some reason. It's

1466
03:44:16.040 --> 03:44:21.799
then that I realize how much it does. You know,

1467
03:44:21.879 --> 03:44:27.840
the benefit of being able to use my legs without

1468
03:44:29.600 --> 03:44:36.840
any kind of physical discomfort is a beautiful thing that's

1469
03:44:37.079 --> 03:44:45.479
possibly not appreciated until it's temporarily removed. You know that's comfort.

1470
03:44:49.559 --> 03:44:54.200
But as you focus on your knees, regardless of how

1471
03:44:54.239 --> 03:45:01.760
your knees feel, you can have that sense of gratitude

1472
03:45:03.280 --> 03:45:05.879
and love to your knees for all that they do

1473
03:45:06.079 --> 03:45:19.079
for you. And you can still have that attention on

1474
03:45:19.239 --> 03:45:25.399
your thighs and maybe notice how your thighs feel. Maybe

1475
03:45:25.719 --> 03:45:43.120
you've noticed that they are relaxing more deeply as you

1476
03:45:43.280 --> 03:45:48.479
focus now on the bottoms of your legs, your shins,

1477
03:45:49.360 --> 03:45:54.920
and your calf muscles, and the bones between your knees

1478
03:45:55.799 --> 03:46:03.559
and your feet incorporate, and of course your ankle so important.

1479
03:46:09.040 --> 03:46:13.639
You know, anyone that's had even like the slightest sprain

1480
03:46:13.799 --> 03:46:20.719
of an ankle knows how how much we take our

1481
03:46:20.959 --> 03:46:29.520
ankles for granted. And it's kind of strange in a

1482
03:46:29.559 --> 03:46:35.159
way when you think that. You know, logically, our wrists

1483
03:46:35.319 --> 03:46:38.159
are a lot thinner than the rest of our arms,

1484
03:46:39.280 --> 03:46:42.799
which is okay, it doesn't I can't see any problem

1485
03:46:42.840 --> 03:46:47.680
with that because we're just picking stuff up. But our

1486
03:46:47.799 --> 03:46:53.600
ankles so much thinner than the rest of our legs,

1487
03:47:00.079 --> 03:47:04.479
and from a physics perspective or logical even it doesn't

1488
03:47:04.520 --> 03:47:10.520
really make sense that all this weight would ultimately be

1489
03:47:11.600 --> 03:47:21.639
resting on your ankles then leading to your feet that

1490
03:47:22.239 --> 03:47:30.440
thin area, a thin bone. Yeah, it does so much

1491
03:47:30.559 --> 03:47:37.600
great work. Supports us, supports our body for a lifetime,

1492
03:47:42.360 --> 03:47:52.079
helps us to balance, helps you to get around and

1493
03:47:52.239 --> 03:48:06.239
be mobile. And there's a car muscles. Of course, when

1494
03:48:06.319 --> 03:48:09.399
I was younger, I couldn't see the point in calf muscles.

1495
03:48:10.200 --> 03:48:14.879
It didn't seem to do anything, Okay, If I walked

1496
03:48:14.920 --> 03:48:18.600
around on tiptoes, then my calf muscles get some work.

1497
03:48:20.000 --> 03:48:22.559
But of course that's not true. The calf muscles are

1498
03:48:22.639 --> 03:48:32.520
being used whenever we use our legs, and your shins

1499
03:48:35.799 --> 03:48:44.799
there to protect your lower legs, shaped in a way

1500
03:48:46.639 --> 03:48:58.719
almost as a protector for the bone, leading of course

1501
03:48:58.840 --> 03:49:08.959
to your ankles and your feet. But we're not going

1502
03:49:09.040 --> 03:49:11.159
to focus on your feet. We're just going to focus

1503
03:49:11.280 --> 03:49:17.920
on the legs. I realize, but now that I've mentioned

1504
03:49:17.959 --> 03:49:22.639
your feet, it probably focuses on them anyway, So maybe

1505
03:49:22.719 --> 03:49:28.840
I should focus on your feet a little bit. You

1506
03:49:28.920 --> 03:49:33.360
can have them in your awareness the same as you

1507
03:49:34.159 --> 03:49:38.040
have your thighs in your awareness. Even though we haven't

1508
03:49:38.079 --> 03:49:43.719
been focusing on your thighs for a few minutes, we'll

1509
03:49:43.760 --> 03:49:54.680
be focusing on your ankles. There's still that sensation of

1510
03:49:57.879 --> 03:50:02.319
comfort in your thighs.

1511
03:50:06.920 --> 03:50:08.719
In this that movement.

1512
03:50:09.879 --> 03:50:17.840
Of energy, because the thighs hold lots of different sensations.

1513
03:50:19.319 --> 03:50:24.159
Of course, there's the muscles, the big straw muscles that

1514
03:50:24.280 --> 03:50:37.159
we have in our thighs, but the skin on the

1515
03:50:37.280 --> 03:50:42.760
outside of the thighs, as in the outside of all

1516
03:50:42.840 --> 03:50:51.680
of our body, can be very sensitive, sensitive to the touch,

1517
03:50:54.440 --> 03:51:07.799
sensitive to temperature, and inside your thighs, the bones, there's

1518
03:51:08.840 --> 03:51:13.639
the muscle, there's the blood, vessels, the ar trees, it's

1519
03:51:13.799 --> 03:51:21.760
all this stuff that's inside your thighs. And I guess

1520
03:51:21.879 --> 03:51:25.200
sometimes it'd be nice if you could actually put your

1521
03:51:25.319 --> 03:51:32.600
fingers inside your thighs and a message, so you can

1522
03:51:32.680 --> 03:51:36.200
message on the outside, of course, but to be able

1523
03:51:36.239 --> 03:51:39.440
to get deep into the muscles and to be able

1524
03:51:39.440 --> 03:51:44.959
to just message inside your thighs, message in the bones

1525
03:51:45.920 --> 03:51:53.479
of your leg massage in all the veins, and just

1526
03:51:53.719 --> 03:52:06.520
gently healing your thighs, and you could move down messaging

1527
03:52:06.639 --> 03:52:12.200
inside your knees. Just message in those bones, but with

1528
03:52:12.559 --> 03:52:19.760
healing fingertips spreading that healing energy deep into the joints

1529
03:52:21.120 --> 03:52:29.120
of your knees. Of course, there's the back of your

1530
03:52:30.280 --> 03:52:34.959
your knee, you know, the inside crease where your knee is.

1531
03:52:36.639 --> 03:52:42.159
It's a very sensitive area. Very it feels very nice

1532
03:52:42.200 --> 03:52:46.799
when you stroke it. That might be because it's an

1533
03:52:46.840 --> 03:52:52.120
area that's not really touched very often. It's almost like

1534
03:52:52.200 --> 03:52:58.799
a hidden part that crease in your legs. It's almost

1535
03:53:00.959 --> 03:53:05.680
it's like a part that has a sensitivity, which is

1536
03:53:05.719 --> 03:53:16.680
a little bit different. Of course, it's protected by your legs,

1537
03:53:24.040 --> 03:53:28.319
so you can imagine putting your fingers into that crease

1538
03:53:29.159 --> 03:53:38.079
in your legs, that fold in between your legs. You

1539
03:53:38.159 --> 03:53:43.879
can just message with your fingertips. Imagine your fingertips going inside,

1540
03:53:45.600 --> 03:53:54.079
massage in the muscle tissue. You can of course feel

1541
03:53:54.200 --> 03:54:00.479
the bones of your knees heating through your finger tips.

1542
03:54:07.879 --> 03:54:13.159
And then as you go down to your calf muscles.

1543
03:54:13.559 --> 03:54:15.280
Now that's the part I'd like to be able to

1544
03:54:16.120 --> 03:54:23.440
really put my fingertips deep inside my calf muscles, massage

1545
03:54:23.559 --> 03:54:32.639
in every single tissue of that muscle, healing every part,

1546
03:54:38.600 --> 03:54:44.680
and then doing the same for my shins, massage in

1547
03:54:44.840 --> 03:54:52.399
and gently stroking the bones, gently stroking them, healing in

1548
03:54:52.520 --> 03:55:00.479
a loving way, because they deserve to be treated preciless

1549
03:55:00.559 --> 03:55:04.559
bones that they are, because our legs are so precious

1550
03:55:05.520 --> 03:55:10.120
as in all the other parts of our body, and

1551
03:55:10.319 --> 03:55:24.079
more precious of any juel on the planet. When you

1552
03:55:24.280 --> 03:55:36.479
start to think about your legs in this way, it

1553
03:55:36.559 --> 03:55:46.200
can change your perspective. It might sound a bit a

1554
03:55:46.319 --> 03:55:51.559
bit silly to start with the idea of having love

1555
03:55:52.120 --> 03:56:01.479
for your legs, showing appreciation for your thighs, wanting to

1556
03:56:01.559 --> 03:56:07.360
be able to put your hands in your thighs and

1557
03:56:07.600 --> 03:56:13.959
massage the muscles and the bones, and to get your

1558
03:56:14.079 --> 03:56:22.600
fingers deep in there, releasing all tension, just to show

1559
03:56:24.479 --> 03:56:31.840
how much you care about your legs, how much you

1560
03:56:32.000 --> 03:56:40.520
care for what your legs do for you regularly, your knees,

1561
03:56:40.799 --> 03:56:53.600
your calves, your ankles, the strength of your ankles, considering

1562
03:56:53.840 --> 03:56:58.319
how thin they are compared to the rest of your legs,

1563
03:56:58.479 --> 03:57:12.159
especially your thighs. Yeah, they're so strong, so flexible, absolutely

1564
03:57:12.440 --> 03:57:24.239
amazing things. Your ankles are truly a gift because of

1565
03:57:24.319 --> 03:57:35.600
what they do for you, supporting all that weight, regardless

1566
03:57:35.639 --> 03:57:39.639
of how what weight you are, even if you only

1567
03:57:40.079 --> 03:57:44.799
ate stone, there's still a lot of weight for these

1568
03:57:45.239 --> 03:57:51.719
little ankles. Now I'm a lot heavier than eight stone

1569
03:57:53.360 --> 03:58:02.479
doubled out, yet my ankles support my body all the time.

1570
03:58:06.319 --> 03:58:09.239
Or they do give off a sigh of relief when

1571
03:58:09.280 --> 03:58:14.360
I sit down as I have my whole legs do.

1572
03:58:18.040 --> 03:58:24.879
My feet feet also go and my toes clap. They're

1573
03:58:24.920 --> 03:58:53.360
so happy. Your legs really are amazing. And I know

1574
03:58:53.799 --> 03:59:00.360
that talking about talking about your legs is probably pass believe,

1575
03:59:00.479 --> 03:59:05.120
among the most boring things you've ever heard anyone say.

1576
03:59:06.040 --> 03:59:13.520
Possibly they're boring or not. Everything I said is true.

1577
03:59:15.959 --> 03:59:30.840
Your legs are amazing. Your legs deserve not just respect,

1578
03:59:36.639 --> 03:59:38.440
they deserve to relax.

1579
03:59:39.799 --> 03:59:40.159
Deeply.

1580
03:59:47.479 --> 03:59:50.799
They deserve to take some time out of the day

1581
03:59:53.040 --> 04:00:21.760
to just let go completely. The legs really can relax.

1582
04:00:29.399 --> 04:00:33.479
And because the legs are so such a most, you know,

1583
04:00:33.760 --> 04:00:39.680
very important part of your body. When you relax your legs,

1584
04:00:39.799 --> 04:00:47.000
the rest of your body also naturally follows in that

1585
04:00:50.719 --> 04:01:01.559
journey of comfort. I can feel it in my hips.

1586
04:01:02.959 --> 04:01:10.079
My hips feel really loose, and also my lwer back

1587
04:01:10.159 --> 04:01:16.760
as well. My lower back really feels it feels stretched,

1588
04:01:17.879 --> 04:01:20.920
even though I'm just sitting in a chair and there's

1589
04:01:21.040 --> 04:01:26.280
no stretching as far as I'm aware that I'm doing.

1590
04:01:27.239 --> 04:01:29.840
But it's almost as if the muscles are just relaxed

1591
04:01:29.920 --> 04:01:35.479
so much that there is a natural stretch as the

1592
04:01:35.639 --> 04:01:57.920
tension has reduced a lot. And I'm now going to

1593
04:01:58.000 --> 04:02:05.440
count down from ten down to one, and you can

1594
04:02:05.559 --> 04:02:34.319
continue to fill wonderfully relaxed. Ten nine, eight, seven, six, five,

1595
04:02:38.959 --> 04:03:07.040
four three two one relax. So I'm just going to

1596
04:03:07.120 --> 04:03:12.479
count down and fire down to one. And as a countdown,

1597
04:03:13.760 --> 04:03:18.520
if you just focus on the numbers, just the numbers

1598
04:03:20.159 --> 04:03:29.159
counting down, and notice how you feel in this moment

1599
04:03:30.920 --> 04:03:35.319
as you hear the numbers counting down, knowing that those

1600
04:03:35.479 --> 04:03:48.520
numbers counting down represent you feeling calmer, not just in

1601
04:03:48.639 --> 04:03:57.159
your body, but also relaxing your mind. Just notice how

1602
04:03:57.239 --> 04:04:03.079
you feel. There's nothing to do, there's nothing to say,

1603
04:04:03.760 --> 04:04:20.799
there's nothing to think about, starting with number five, four,

1604
04:04:30.319 --> 04:05:06.079
three two one. Now, as you notice the gradual letting

1605
04:05:06.200 --> 04:05:14.680
go that the tension in your body, you may also

1606
04:05:15.280 --> 04:05:20.760
begin to notice and be aware of how your mind

1607
04:05:21.840 --> 04:05:29.760
is starting to slow down. This is just a natural

1608
04:05:30.600 --> 04:05:38.520
thing that happens. It's not really a special procedure. It's

1609
04:05:38.639 --> 04:05:43.959
just natural because as your body relaxes, your mind also

1610
04:05:44.719 --> 04:05:49.559
starts to relax, and the more your mind relaxes, the

1611
04:05:49.680 --> 04:05:55.120
more your body relaxes. It's just a continuous circle of relaxation.

1612
04:06:01.159 --> 04:06:09.680
And there's that calmness that comes from relative quietness. You know,

1613
04:06:09.840 --> 04:06:15.479
even even if there's background sounds either your side, online,

1614
04:06:17.159 --> 04:06:23.079
it's still going to be quite calm. You know, you

1615
04:06:23.159 --> 04:06:27.799
haven't got the television on, there's no music in the

1616
04:06:27.879 --> 04:06:31.120
background unless you're listening to the recording. With music. Of course,

1617
04:06:36.000 --> 04:06:38.120
you're very likely not going to be sitting in a

1618
04:06:38.239 --> 04:06:41.360
room with other people. Of course you might be, but

1619
04:06:42.680 --> 04:06:45.920
generally it's more ideal if you can do this on

1620
04:06:46.040 --> 04:06:57.360
your own, so no distractions, and when you stop thinking

1621
04:06:57.440 --> 04:07:14.600
about stuff, relaxation automatically rises, a sense of comfort starts

1622
04:07:14.680 --> 04:07:23.440
to grow, and without trying to build it up into

1623
04:07:23.520 --> 04:07:35.639
something fantastical or something magical, this is just a natural process,

1624
04:07:38.000 --> 04:07:48.879
something that's easy to accomplish. In fact, it's almost the

1625
04:07:49.200 --> 04:07:55.879
sense of relaxing completely happens really when you put no

1626
04:07:56.079 --> 04:08:00.639
effort into it. It's not something that you can really force.

1627
04:08:03.280 --> 04:08:12.639
It's something that happens naturally. And part of the process

1628
04:08:13.040 --> 04:08:24.239
of this recording and others is simply two allow you

1629
04:08:26.639 --> 04:08:37.479
to take advantage of this space, this time, to just

1630
04:08:41.680 --> 04:08:49.239
let go, to just be here, to be in tune

1631
04:08:52.920 --> 04:09:05.040
with how you feel, yet with the intention of wanting

1632
04:09:05.319 --> 04:09:17.399
to relax deeply and maybe even to fall asleep, depending

1633
04:09:17.639 --> 04:09:23.879
on what it is that you wish for yourself in

1634
04:09:24.000 --> 04:09:40.159
this moment. As we know, relaxing is the majority of

1635
04:09:40.280 --> 04:09:44.879
the process of falling asleep. The actual falling asleep part

1636
04:09:45.120 --> 04:09:53.319
is the tiny bit at the end. The deeper relaxed

1637
04:09:53.600 --> 04:10:15.120
do you become, the easier you find yourself drifting. You

1638
04:10:15.280 --> 04:10:22.280
can also if you choose stay focused on my voice

1639
04:10:24.079 --> 04:10:50.879
and really enjoy the process of gradually relaxing each muscle

1640
04:10:55.479 --> 04:11:22.360
in your body effortlessly and just observing the sensation of

1641
04:11:22.600 --> 04:11:38.239
letting go completely. This time, I'm going to count from

1642
04:11:38.440 --> 04:11:48.639
six down to one, and you can notice your mind

1643
04:11:51.280 --> 04:11:59.000
calming down more with each number that you hear me

1644
04:11:59.280 --> 04:14:47.239
say naturally, feeling calm and slow and peaceful, six, five, four, three, two, one,

1645
04:15:08.399 --> 04:15:18.000
being aware of how your mind has slowed right down,

1646
04:15:21.239 --> 04:15:44.639
sinking deeply into relaxation. And as you focus on your mind,

1647
04:15:44.920 --> 04:15:54.879
you may notice that there are some thoughts still there,

1648
04:15:57.479 --> 04:16:07.000
maybe some stubborn thoughts that for some reason perhaps need

1649
04:16:07.079 --> 04:16:22.280
your attention. That's what you can do is send love

1650
04:16:22.520 --> 04:16:36.159
to those thoughts. Sprinkle those thoughts with love like all

1651
04:16:36.319 --> 04:16:41.920
petals from a flower. Just sprinkle it over them, petals

1652
04:16:42.000 --> 04:16:49.200
filled with love towards those thoughts, to let those thoughts

1653
04:16:49.440 --> 04:16:56.239
know that you're not abandoned in them. You just need them.

1654
04:16:57.479 --> 04:17:09.399
You require them to just calm down, slow down, quiet down.

1655
04:17:13.079 --> 04:17:13.479
For now.

1656
04:17:21.360 --> 04:17:26.360
So as you focus on those remaining thoughts, as we

1657
04:17:26.559 --> 04:17:31.760
count down this time from seven down to one. With

1658
04:17:31.959 --> 04:17:45.840
each number, just imagine sprinkling those flower petals of love, kindness,

1659
04:17:47.440 --> 04:17:59.280
gratitude over those thoughts which will allow them to just

1660
04:18:00.680 --> 04:18:15.680
melt away and relaxed deeply. With every number, those thoughts

1661
04:18:15.840 --> 04:20:42.520
will become more and more relaxed. Starting with number seven, six, five, four, three, two, one,

1662
04:21:00.079 --> 04:21:25.440
how notice how relaxed you're feeling in your body. We're

1663
04:21:25.479 --> 04:21:39.200
going to focus on your hands, because the more relaxed

1664
04:21:39.319 --> 04:21:46.520
your hands are, the more relaxed your body and mind are.

1665
04:22:01.440 --> 04:22:02.079
And there's.

1666
04:22:03.559 --> 04:22:13.760
You focus on your hands and your fingers. There's nothing

1667
04:22:14.280 --> 04:22:19.000
needed to be done. There's no clenching of fists or

1668
04:22:20.079 --> 04:22:30.360
dents in the fingers or anything like that. It's just

1669
04:22:30.840 --> 04:22:44.879
noticing and focusing on your hands, noticing how they feel.

1670
04:22:59.520 --> 04:23:10.000
Because the more relaxed your hands feel, the calmer your

1671
04:23:10.239 --> 04:23:22.120
mind feels, and the more comfort you feel throughout your body.

1672
04:23:27.239 --> 04:23:28.159
And you.

1673
04:23:30.840 --> 04:24:17.000
May have already noticed your mind is starting to drest, fixing.

1674
04:24:20.600 --> 04:24:21.319
Just on your.

1675
04:24:21.399 --> 04:24:39.719
Hands and fingers, allowing them to experience a real deepening

1676
04:24:40.920 --> 04:24:55.799
of that relaxation in your hands and fingers more and

1677
04:24:56.040 --> 04:25:15.200
more relaxed. With each number from eight down to one,

1678
04:25:20.280 --> 04:25:30.120
you can almost feel that healing and relaxing energy spreading

1679
04:25:31.319 --> 04:25:50.239
into your hands and fingers becoming year more relaxing. With

1680
04:25:50.680 --> 04:26:09.280
each number you hear going down eight down to one, drifting,

1681
04:26:12.959 --> 04:28:59.680
drifting again, starting with number eight seven six, five four three,

1682
04:30:19.600 --> 04:30:28.920
just being here now, nothing to think about, nothing to do,

1683
04:30:30.520 --> 04:30:44.479
nothing to say, and everything just feels calmer. And this

1684
04:30:44.760 --> 04:30:52.360
is your natural state of being. This is how you

1685
04:30:52.639 --> 04:30:59.520
just normally feel when you take away all that other

1686
04:31:00.040 --> 04:31:06.879
stuff that we add, you know, things like stress and

1687
04:31:07.120 --> 04:31:23.280
worrying and overthinking and anxiety, tension, just generally thinking about stuff.

1688
04:31:25.280 --> 04:31:28.600
When you take that away, which is what we do,

1689
04:31:29.360 --> 04:31:41.239
what we do now, you're left with a real sense

1690
04:31:41.879 --> 04:31:54.399
of peacefulness which comes to you very quickly because ultimately

1691
04:31:55.040 --> 04:32:08.639
it's just a feeling, a feeling of comfort. It's almost

1692
04:32:08.799 --> 04:32:12.399
as if you've gone inside yourself and you've found a

1693
04:32:12.600 --> 04:32:26.520
special place where everything is peaceful, a place where you

1694
04:32:26.719 --> 04:32:37.239
can feel relaxed and your natural sense of comfort, a

1695
04:32:37.360 --> 04:32:45.879
place where you can be you, where you can accept

1696
04:32:45.959 --> 04:32:52.040
yourself for who you are, a place where you're not

1697
04:32:52.239 --> 04:33:02.639
trying to please anybody else ever, a place where you

1698
04:33:02.840 --> 04:33:12.400
can actually not just love yourself, but in some ways

1699
04:33:12.479 --> 04:33:21.599
more importantly, you can like yourself appreciate who you are.

1700
04:33:30.479 --> 04:33:37.080
That sense of gratitude is in the air all around you.

1701
04:33:44.720 --> 04:33:52.560
That's also a place where you can actually feel the

1702
04:33:52.919 --> 04:34:08.159
healing energy soaking into your body. Healing energy soaking into

1703
04:34:08.279 --> 04:34:18.279
your body, and that healing energy spreads through your veins,

1704
04:34:22.040 --> 04:34:28.919
traveling to each and every single part of your body,

1705
04:34:34.840 --> 04:34:39.439
and you start to realize that actually, that healing energy,

1706
04:34:41.919 --> 04:34:48.319
it's not just entered into your brain, it's become part

1707
04:34:48.840 --> 04:34:59.919
of your brain, and that spinal fluid is now mixed

1708
04:35:00.080 --> 04:35:11.040
sort of healing energy, not just allowing you to feel

1709
04:35:11.319 --> 04:35:22.840
so much more relaxed and healthy in this moment, but

1710
04:35:23.119 --> 04:35:32.639
also you start to realize to actually, what's happening now

1711
04:35:33.880 --> 04:35:43.080
with that healing, relaxing energy spreading through your body, it's

1712
04:35:43.279 --> 04:35:54.040
actually changing your life. It's actually changing the way you're

1713
04:35:54.159 --> 04:36:00.599
going to feel not just now, but tomorrow and the

1714
04:36:00.720 --> 04:36:10.479
next day. As your health improves, not just your physical health,

1715
04:36:10.599 --> 04:36:17.959
but your mental health. Things that yeused to bother you

1716
04:36:18.159 --> 04:36:25.279
in the past, for some reason, no longer have the

1717
04:36:25.439 --> 04:36:34.319
effect that they used to because something has changed deep

1718
04:36:34.799 --> 04:36:45.439
within you. Maybe things that used to cause you to

1719
04:36:45.599 --> 04:36:57.919
feel anger no longer have that power to control you

1720
04:37:00.439 --> 04:37:06.720
the way they seem to be able to before. As

1721
04:37:06.840 --> 04:37:18.360
you realize that you're the one who decides what affects you,

1722
04:37:22.040 --> 04:37:30.880
you're the one who decides to feel relaxed and calm

1723
04:37:32.439 --> 04:37:48.520
when you choose to enjoy noticing these natural developments of healing,

1724
04:37:51.080 --> 04:37:59.639
continuing to grow and improve your life day by day,

1725
04:38:05.560 --> 04:38:13.799
including of course your ability to relax so much easier

1726
04:38:18.720 --> 04:38:28.360
and sleeping. It's the most natural thing in the world

1727
04:38:29.799 --> 04:38:38.119
to you, because falling asleep is something that you've done

1728
04:38:41.159 --> 04:38:48.840
so many times in your life, and you know that

1729
04:38:49.040 --> 04:38:54.279
you were born, as we all were, with the ability

1730
04:38:55.919 --> 04:39:06.200
to fall asleep naturally. We were born with that ability

1731
04:39:09.159 --> 04:39:23.439
to just drift off into a deep, healing sleep. Even

1732
04:39:23.479 --> 04:39:28.240
when we're kids, sometimes will fall asleep when we don't

1733
04:39:28.279 --> 04:39:34.680
even want to try to stay awake. Maybe it's a

1734
04:39:34.799 --> 04:39:39.279
birthday in the morning, or it's Christmas or holiday or

1735
04:39:39.360 --> 04:39:41.759
something we look forward to. We don't want to go

1736
04:39:41.880 --> 04:39:46.799
to sleep. But the more we want to stay awake,

1737
04:39:49.040 --> 04:39:56.040
the more we just start to drift. And the more

1738
04:39:56.759 --> 04:40:00.439
you fight drifting, the more you try and stop yourself

1739
04:40:00.520 --> 04:40:05.520
and drift in a shape, the deeper and stronger that

1740
04:40:05.799 --> 04:40:17.200
drifting becomes. Because we're born not just with the need

1741
04:40:18.520 --> 04:40:26.599
to relax deeply and to naturally fall asleep, but it's

1742
04:40:26.720 --> 04:40:41.040
our birthright, it's part of our DNA and sometimes as

1743
04:40:41.119 --> 04:40:46.720
we get older in life, perhaps at times we have

1744
04:40:47.159 --> 04:41:00.279
forgotten that relaxing completely. It's not only a wonderful, fully

1745
04:41:00.639 --> 04:41:24.639
pleasant experience, it's also really easy. It's very very easy

1746
04:41:26.040 --> 04:41:29.720
to let go, because that's all it is.

1747
04:41:29.919 --> 04:41:30.400
It's just.

1748
04:41:33.919 --> 04:41:45.319
Deciding to let go. And when you press the play

1749
04:41:45.439 --> 04:41:55.680
button on my recordings, you have given permission for my

1750
04:41:55.959 --> 04:42:04.040
voice to relax you. When you press that play button,

1751
04:42:05.040 --> 04:42:13.479
you have given me permission for my words to effect

1752
04:42:15.959 --> 04:42:27.799
you in a positive, only a positive way, opening up

1753
04:42:33.040 --> 04:42:51.279
your mind to useful and healing suggestions that can have

1754
04:42:55.799 --> 04:43:03.240
such an amazing effect on how you feel right now,

1755
04:43:08.000 --> 04:43:17.840
as well as those changes that continue long after the

1756
04:43:17.959 --> 04:43:28.599
recording ends. Those changes within you to continue to flourish

1757
04:43:29.479 --> 04:43:44.040
and grow, transforming your life in a positive, beautiful way,

1758
04:43:47.159 --> 04:43:54.200
allowing you to move forward in your life in the

1759
04:43:54.319 --> 04:44:11.560
direction that you choose for yourself. And this feeling, this

1760
04:44:11.880 --> 04:44:27.439
feeling that you can experience of safety, comfort, calmness, just

1761
04:44:27.720 --> 04:44:41.360
feels so nice. It's such a healthy place to be,

1762
04:44:49.240 --> 04:45:03.040
and that positivity grows within you each and every day.

1763
04:45:06.119 --> 04:45:15.919
Moving forward, you're going to find that you're more relaxed

1764
04:45:18.240 --> 04:45:30.599
physically and in your mind, is more relaxed. And it's

1765
04:45:30.680 --> 04:45:36.200
not that you're thinking slower, it's just that your mind

1766
04:45:36.319 --> 04:45:48.159
will be less clogged up with unnecessary negativity because from

1767
04:45:48.279 --> 04:45:58.560
now on, your mind rejects negativity. From now on, you're

1768
04:45:58.599 --> 04:46:09.439
going to start noticing when negativity arises, and you can

1769
04:46:09.639 --> 04:46:23.560
just say stop, stop, and that negativity will turn around

1770
04:46:24.159 --> 04:46:43.560
and leave you alone. Stop and that negativity will disappear.

1771
04:46:51.680 --> 04:46:58.159
And as you notice that you feel way more relaxed

1772
04:46:59.560 --> 04:47:14.959
than you probably expected, you can now congratulate yourself because

1773
04:47:15.159 --> 04:47:21.560
you're the person that has done this. You are the

1774
04:47:21.680 --> 04:47:26.759
one that has opened your mind up to the simple

1775
04:47:27.000 --> 04:47:34.840
facts that you can feel more relaxed in your body

1776
04:47:35.560 --> 04:47:44.840
and in your mind. You've opened your mind up to

1777
04:47:47.200 --> 04:47:53.759
the birthright of being able to just fall asleep easily

1778
04:47:54.799 --> 04:48:08.840
when you choose. And that's a nice feeling. Don't you

1779
04:48:08.919 --> 04:48:20.479
think it feels nice? Doesn't it? To feel calm? All

1780
04:48:20.560 --> 04:48:25.159
that healing energy is spreading through your body and your

1781
04:48:25.279 --> 04:48:41.040
mind to spend time in a special place where negativity

1782
04:48:42.560 --> 04:48:55.439
can no longer enter. Negativity is banned. It's bad, it's

1783
04:48:55.520 --> 04:49:02.680
not allowed. Intrigue doesn't it doesn't doesn't deserve to be here,

1784
04:49:03.159 --> 04:49:12.159
doesn't belong here. Negativity has no place in your life,

1785
04:49:22.159 --> 04:49:31.639
which makes room feel more comfort, more heathing, more relaxation,

1786
04:49:36.520 --> 04:50:01.520
more peace. It feels nice, doesn't it. Just the let

1787
04:50:01.599 --> 04:50:21.840
go with everything. I'm going to count down now from

1788
04:50:22.639 --> 04:50:32.159
twenty down to one. You can continue to relax. If

1789
04:50:32.240 --> 04:50:44.119
you choose, you can drift to sleep with every number

1790
04:50:46.599 --> 04:50:55.400
you hear me say, you can fill twice as relaxed,

1791
04:50:58.439 --> 04:51:03.040
or if you choose, you can fill twice sleeping.

1792
04:51:09.479 --> 04:51:09.680
Now.

1793
04:51:15.080 --> 04:53:23.959
Twenty nineteen, eighteen, seventeen, sixteen, fifteen, fourteen, thteen, twelve, eleven, ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five.

1794
04:53:30.520 --> 04:53:30.759
Four.

1795
04:54:04.159 --> 04:54:14.000
This is your time to just take a break, your

1796
04:54:14.159 --> 04:54:24.840
time to relax, to allow your mind to slow down,

1797
04:54:33.560 --> 04:54:47.599
to give yourself permission to take a break from everything.

1798
04:54:52.319 --> 04:54:56.799
And you you're the only person that can make that decision,

1799
04:55:00.040 --> 04:55:08.439
any person that can actually tell your mind to just relax,

1800
04:55:16.599 --> 04:55:32.200
to just take some time off so that you can

1801
04:55:32.959 --> 04:55:38.400
focus on your body, getting in touch with how you

1802
04:55:38.560 --> 04:55:55.439
feel physically, and in the process of this body scan

1803
04:55:55.840 --> 04:56:06.279
where you focus on different parts of your body, those

1804
04:56:06.639 --> 04:56:13.759
parts that you focus on and observe. Even though you're

1805
04:56:13.840 --> 04:56:22.680
not purposely requesting for those parts of your body to relax,

1806
04:56:24.919 --> 04:56:31.279
it's kind of expected you expect when you listen to

1807
04:56:31.439 --> 04:56:44.119
my voice to feel more relaxed naturally, because when you're

1808
04:56:44.159 --> 04:56:54.400
listening to me, your attention is focused on my words,

1809
04:56:59.360 --> 04:57:10.200
and there's my words guide you to focus on those

1810
04:57:10.479 --> 04:57:28.599
parts of your body. Your focus increases, which actually calms

1811
04:57:28.759 --> 04:57:48.840
your mind. And when your mind calms down, your body relaxes.

1812
04:57:56.400 --> 04:58:18.319
And when your body calms down, your mind relaxes. And

1813
04:58:18.680 --> 04:58:26.479
even though we've not really started the focus on your body,

1814
04:58:29.479 --> 04:58:40.520
you can already feel that healing energy spreading through your body,

1815
04:58:45.400 --> 04:58:59.680
pushing out stress and tension, healing all the parts of

1816
04:58:59.759 --> 04:59:09.599
your body, including your skin, your bones, your blood, all

1817
04:59:09.639 --> 04:59:14.200
of your organs inside your body, all of the muscles,

1818
04:59:15.560 --> 04:59:22.680
all of the fat, all of everything, every hair on

1819
04:59:22.840 --> 04:59:36.240
your body is filled with that healing energy. And when

1820
04:59:36.319 --> 04:59:52.599
your brain fills with that healing energy, the feeling of

1821
04:59:52.799 --> 05:00:16.639
comfort and relaxation in creases deeply increases in a way

1822
05:00:16.919 --> 05:00:36.919
that your mind starts to feel perhaps bit drowsy because

1823
05:00:36.959 --> 05:00:56.080
it's not needed, and it may start to drift if

1824
05:00:56.200 --> 05:01:04.720
that's what's needed. So if you're listening to this and

1825
05:01:04.840 --> 05:01:08.880
what you need is deep relaxation, that's what you'll get.

1826
05:01:11.080 --> 05:01:17.959
If what you need is to fall asleep naturally and

1827
05:01:18.200 --> 05:01:26.759
easily as your mind drifts. That's also what will happen

1828
05:01:32.479 --> 05:01:40.200
because by pressing that play button on the podcast and

1829
05:01:40.520 --> 05:01:46.799
listening to me, you give permission for your body and

1830
05:01:46.959 --> 05:01:58.959
your mind. In fact, you give the command to your

1831
05:01:59.040 --> 05:02:10.319
body and your mind to relax deeply and to drift

1832
05:02:10.479 --> 05:02:19.360
off to sleep if that's what you want or need.

1833
05:02:27.080 --> 05:02:32.720
And as I focus on the different parts of your body,

1834
05:02:37.680 --> 05:02:46.520
you may start to just drift. And then you come

1835
05:02:46.599 --> 05:02:51.880
back again and you hear me talking and I'm focusing

1836
05:02:52.040 --> 05:02:54.240
on a different part of your body.

1837
05:03:00.080 --> 05:03:00.639
You may.

1838
05:03:02.520 --> 05:03:11.479
Find yourself drifting, but you don't realize you're drifting until

1839
05:03:11.520 --> 05:03:18.040
you stop drifting and you're alert again to my voice

1840
05:03:19.479 --> 05:03:25.360
focusing on a different part of your body starts to

1841
05:03:25.520 --> 05:03:36.360
relax even deeper, because that drifting is basically you already

1842
05:03:38.720 --> 05:03:48.520
in the sleep zone. And the more you drift, the

1843
05:03:48.720 --> 05:03:58.439
longer you drift, and the longer you drift, eventually that

1844
05:03:58.680 --> 05:04:08.840
drifting continue into sleep, and that's the last you remember

1845
05:04:10.919 --> 05:04:19.080
until you wake up in your own time, when you

1846
05:04:19.400 --> 05:04:27.799
experience the right amount of sleep for you, because when

1847
05:04:27.840 --> 05:04:37.240
you do and if you do fall asleep, it's extremely pleasant,

1848
05:04:39.959 --> 05:05:00.639
so relaxing, so deep healing sleep. I it feels so

1849
05:05:01.000 --> 05:05:12.439
nice to relax into your own body and mind as

1850
05:05:12.520 --> 05:05:18.040
you as you feel that healing energy is spreading through it,

1851
05:05:20.319 --> 05:05:42.200
relaxing news so deeply, relaxing us so so deeply. As

1852
05:05:42.279 --> 05:05:58.639
we start to focus on your eyes, moving down to

1853
05:05:58.799 --> 05:06:41.520
your jaw, down to your neck, your shoulders, arms, hands, fingers,

1854
05:06:48.840 --> 05:07:20.919
your chest, the stomach, your back, your spine, you hips,

1855
05:07:28.759 --> 05:08:12.680
your legs, your feet, your chase and feelingeeings spreading and

1856
05:08:12.959 --> 05:08:26.959
growing inside your body, feeling you up. Now let's focus

1857
05:08:27.080 --> 05:08:37.000
again on parts of your body, focusing this time on

1858
05:08:37.119 --> 05:08:50.000
your forehead. Now on your mouth, your lips, your tongue,

1859
05:08:53.200 --> 05:09:09.279
the whole of your mouth. Focus then on your fingers.

1860
05:09:14.680 --> 05:09:19.000
Maybe you could move your fingers a little bit so

1861
05:09:19.200 --> 05:09:34.639
you can focus on each one individually, both hands, and

1862
05:09:34.799 --> 05:09:37.639
even though as you focus on both of your hands

1863
05:09:38.560 --> 05:09:48.560
now they almost seem to just melt into one where

1864
05:09:48.560 --> 05:09:52.400
there is your right hand, start in your left hand.

1865
05:09:52.240 --> 05:09:52.319
And.

1866
05:09:56.000 --> 05:10:08.159
Almost as if just mixed together. Now focusing on your knees,

1867
05:10:14.040 --> 05:10:37.040
just noticing how your knees feel. Now, focusing on your elbows,

1868
05:10:39.759 --> 05:10:52.200
focusing on both of your elbows, just observing the feeling

1869
05:10:54.880 --> 05:11:26.840
of your elbows. Now focusing, absurding the back of your neck,

1870
05:11:36.799 --> 05:12:14.400
Feeling the energy on the back of your neck, obsurving

1871
05:12:16.799 --> 05:12:36.119
your ankles, being aware of physical sensations in your ankles,

1872
05:13:36.159 --> 05:13:55.080
noticin now your toes on both of your feet, being

1873
05:13:55.319 --> 05:14:50.759
aware your toes feel right now, not to sin hiw

1874
05:14:50.959 --> 05:15:40.319
you entire body feels noticing your mind feels now, letting go,

1875
05:15:49.119 --> 05:16:30.479
letting go, letting go everything, letting go, letting go, letting

1876
05:16:31.200 --> 05:16:57.799
go everything, everything. I'm going to start now, and I

1877
05:16:57.840 --> 05:16:59.840
would like it just first of all, just to see

1878
05:16:59.880 --> 05:17:08.159
yourself lying down on that message table, lying on your front.

1879
05:17:09.439 --> 05:17:17.400
Your head is supported, your arms are supported, and you

1880
05:17:17.479 --> 05:17:24.119
feel comfortable and breathing. It's really easy, and you feel

1881
05:17:27.639 --> 05:17:30.599
you feel confident in how you look as well. So

1882
05:17:31.040 --> 05:17:35.200
there's none of that issue of body problems or shyness

1883
05:17:36.119 --> 05:17:44.240
because I'm a professional and this is a therapy session,

1884
05:17:45.040 --> 05:17:52.959
so none of that stuff matters whatsoever. This is about you.

1885
05:17:55.840 --> 05:18:01.599
This is about how you feel and how you can

1886
05:18:03.080 --> 05:18:08.680
enjoy that sense of comfort and relaxation that comes from

1887
05:18:10.080 --> 05:18:15.759
letting go and allowing my hands and my fingers to

1888
05:18:15.880 --> 05:18:27.080
relax you by a message in your body. So I

1889
05:18:27.159 --> 05:18:32.119
want to start off just by placing my hands on

1890
05:18:32.240 --> 05:18:36.840
the back of your head, just gently, just you can

1891
05:18:36.959 --> 05:18:45.639
feel what my hands feel like really on you, so

1892
05:18:45.840 --> 05:18:48.080
you can maybe feel the warmth of my hands on

1893
05:18:48.159 --> 05:18:53.479
the back of your head. And with my hands to

1894
05:18:53.560 --> 05:18:57.520
the side of your head, not pressing, but just holding

1895
05:18:57.560 --> 05:19:03.720
there very gently, maybe over your ears, and a little

1896
05:19:03.759 --> 05:19:07.919
bit on your face, just so you can feel my

1897
05:19:08.159 --> 05:19:23.159
hands so you can become accustomed to them. And now

1898
05:19:23.439 --> 05:19:25.599
put my hands on the back of your head again

1899
05:19:26.080 --> 05:19:32.840
and gently let them slide down onto the back of

1900
05:19:32.919 --> 05:19:50.279
your neck. You can feel my hands gently stroke in

1901
05:19:50.400 --> 05:19:56.840
the back of your neck to start with, just so

1902
05:19:57.000 --> 05:20:01.400
you can get used to the the feeling my hands

1903
05:20:01.439 --> 05:20:09.479
on your skin, get accustomed to realize that you're safe

1904
05:20:10.520 --> 05:20:19.279
and it's all good, it's all fine. And I'm going

1905
05:20:19.319 --> 05:20:23.479
to start gently massaging the muscles in the back of

1906
05:20:23.560 --> 05:20:39.400
your neck with both hands. Now, this is a very

1907
05:20:39.560 --> 05:20:47.639
trusting situation really, because our necks are so fragile and

1908
05:20:47.759 --> 05:20:51.840
to have someone have their hands around your neck in

1909
05:20:52.000 --> 05:20:57.279
that way can sometimes be problematic for people, which is

1910
05:20:57.319 --> 05:21:01.720
why massages are quite good, because it allows you to

1911
05:21:01.840 --> 05:21:16.119
relax and to get in touch with trust, to feel

1912
05:21:16.240 --> 05:21:28.439
peaceful and calm and there's a massage the sides of

1913
05:21:28.560 --> 05:21:36.439
your neck, gently moving from the bottom of your neck.

1914
05:21:38.159 --> 05:21:40.639
It would be sort of near where your shoulders start,

1915
05:21:40.720 --> 05:21:47.400
I guess, all the way up to your jaw, your

1916
05:21:47.479 --> 05:21:53.959
ears kind of area that side of your neck. Of course,

1917
05:21:54.000 --> 05:21:56.520
it's a lot longer than the front of your neck.

1918
05:22:09.479 --> 05:22:16.479
And then message in the back of your neck, especially

1919
05:22:16.560 --> 05:22:25.000
that area where perhaps we hold tension, and as that

1920
05:22:25.200 --> 05:22:30.200
area's message, you can actually feel a sense of release

1921
05:22:30.520 --> 05:22:38.119
in the back of your neck and maybe you can

1922
05:22:38.279 --> 05:22:43.880
breathe it out as well. Notice how it feels. Notice

1923
05:22:43.919 --> 05:22:56.720
how you feel. And then moving down to that area

1924
05:22:57.279 --> 05:23:04.880
between your neck and your shoulders, that muscle area, starting

1925
05:23:05.000 --> 05:23:11.959
to message that area on both sides. I mean, this

1926
05:23:12.040 --> 05:23:14.479
would be the area that a lot of people would

1927
05:23:14.560 --> 05:23:17.279
message if they were going to give you like a

1928
05:23:17.400 --> 05:23:23.479
shoulder message. Even that's not technically the shoulders, but it's

1929
05:23:23.520 --> 05:23:27.639
all the muscles that lead to the shoulders from the

1930
05:23:27.799 --> 05:23:33.959
neck and a game that can hold tension and stress.

1931
05:23:35.200 --> 05:23:40.200
And when massaged sometimes a nice deep message is useful,

1932
05:23:43.279 --> 05:23:58.720
and you decide how deep that message is and just

1933
05:23:58.919 --> 05:24:05.840
allow my knuckles just to dig in to get to

1934
05:24:05.959 --> 05:24:16.000
those muscles and to really relaxed all the time being

1935
05:24:16.240 --> 05:24:33.759
firm yet gentle with you and just stroking down the

1936
05:24:33.959 --> 05:24:42.520
area to your actual shoulders, moving to the muscles of

1937
05:24:42.560 --> 05:24:53.720
your shoulders, and maybe initially just pulling up the shoulders

1938
05:24:53.720 --> 05:24:57.040
a little bit of the table just to give you

1939
05:24:57.159 --> 05:25:07.560
a little bit of a stretch, but very gently. And

1940
05:25:07.639 --> 05:25:10.200
you've got the muscles at the front of your shoulders,

1941
05:25:10.959 --> 05:25:21.919
the sides and the back. Again, this is a part

1942
05:25:22.080 --> 05:25:27.479
that can really take quite a bit of pressure, quite

1943
05:25:27.479 --> 05:25:35.560
a bit of needing. If if you wish to really

1944
05:25:37.400 --> 05:25:42.880
release the tension to really get into those muscles, and

1945
05:25:46.319 --> 05:25:49.639
you can let your fingers in there. You can feel

1946
05:25:49.840 --> 05:25:57.880
really nice. Sometimes just being stroked gently or being massaged

1947
05:25:59.360 --> 05:26:13.200
quite strong can all be beneficial to the relaxation with

1948
05:26:13.360 --> 05:26:27.000
the muscles in your shoulders. Now you move down your arms.

1949
05:26:33.599 --> 05:26:37.119
We do one arm at a time, starting with your

1950
05:26:37.240 --> 05:26:48.000
right arm. Well, I DearS, I just lift your arm up,

1951
05:26:48.919 --> 05:26:54.000
just hold it to the side of you that way

1952
05:26:54.159 --> 05:27:00.799
still be attached, and I just message tops of your

1953
05:27:00.959 --> 05:27:17.639
arms all the way down to your forearms into your wrists,

1954
05:27:29.000 --> 05:27:41.240
gently massaging that parts. The softer part, which is the

1955
05:27:42.159 --> 05:27:48.119
underpart of the arm, which leads to the crease in

1956
05:27:48.240 --> 05:28:04.200
your elbow the inside. It's much more sensitive skin. Sometimes

1957
05:28:04.360 --> 05:28:14.840
just having that stroked can feel really nice, pleasurable and relaxing.

1958
05:28:23.599 --> 05:28:34.200
Now moving down to your right hand, just holding your

1959
05:28:34.360 --> 05:28:47.520
hand in both of my hands, just pressing gently on

1960
05:28:47.680 --> 05:28:54.840
the back of your hand and stretching your fingers ever

1961
05:28:55.040 --> 05:29:03.840
so lightly at the same time pressing down and messaging

1962
05:29:04.560 --> 05:29:17.240
each finger, and then starting to massage the palms of

1963
05:29:17.360 --> 05:29:29.840
the hand. Just turning the hand gently, stretching it gently,

1964
05:29:35.159 --> 05:29:40.759
and actually having your hand held can really be an

1965
05:29:40.840 --> 05:29:48.360
emotional experience sometimes even if it is a stranger, So

1966
05:29:48.439 --> 05:29:52.680
when you don't know very well, like a massage person

1967
05:29:52.959 --> 05:30:05.919
or a therapist, maybe because it's intimate and you can

1968
05:30:06.000 --> 05:30:18.919
feel nice, you can feel safe. And as I put

1969
05:30:19.040 --> 05:30:27.720
that right arm back down where it was, I did

1970
05:30:27.799 --> 05:30:39.360
the same with your left arm, exactly the same message

1971
05:30:39.639 --> 05:30:43.799
in the muscles and your arm all the way down.

1972
05:30:45.040 --> 05:30:57.360
Do your rest stroking the inside of your arm, just

1973
05:30:57.479 --> 05:31:11.040
being gentle or as firm as you require, and then

1974
05:31:11.159 --> 05:31:27.639
massaging your left hand, stretching the fingers gently, massaging the

1975
05:31:27.880 --> 05:31:43.439
palm of your left hand, and you can feel so

1976
05:31:46.360 --> 05:32:11.599
so relaxing, so comforting. H and just rest your left

1977
05:32:11.720 --> 05:32:25.840
down back down, start to massage your back, the biggest

1978
05:32:26.000 --> 05:32:37.360
part of your body, starting at the top, starting again

1979
05:32:37.560 --> 05:32:40.479
where we already be have been, the area at the

1980
05:32:40.599 --> 05:32:47.240
top in between his shoulders, near your neck. Going back,

1981
05:32:47.959 --> 05:32:52.439
a message in that area again, but this time moving

1982
05:32:52.720 --> 05:33:05.599
downwards in a downward stroke to the middle of your back,

1983
05:33:08.040 --> 05:33:13.520
working from the outside inwards. It's a massage in the

1984
05:33:15.799 --> 05:33:20.840
your back, but the outsides of your back.

1985
05:33:24.759 --> 05:33:25.840
The parts.

1986
05:33:28.080 --> 05:33:40.919
Where your arms would maybe rest against, almost the path

1987
05:33:41.040 --> 05:33:54.439
that connects your front to your back. Just massaging down

1988
05:33:56.639 --> 05:34:05.919
firmly but gently, as firm as you want, moving down

1989
05:34:06.159 --> 05:34:09.799
and moving across a little bed, and moving all the

1990
05:34:09.840 --> 05:34:16.000
way down again, being very gentle. You have firm as

1991
05:34:16.119 --> 05:34:27.720
you choose. Eventually you get to the spine. We can

1992
05:34:27.880 --> 05:34:32.720
message the muscles and either side of your spine from

1993
05:34:32.759 --> 05:34:38.400
the top of your neck all the way down to

1994
05:34:38.520 --> 05:34:47.279
your lower back. We can do that a few times.

1995
05:34:50.360 --> 05:34:58.479
Sometimes people use the knuckle or the two fingers and

1996
05:34:58.680 --> 05:35:05.080
just go your side of the spine, almost just push down,

1997
05:35:05.919 --> 05:35:08.200
go all the way down to the bottom of the spine,

1998
05:35:09.880 --> 05:35:19.560
each time releasing tension and opening up the body, stretching

1999
05:35:20.720 --> 05:35:27.599
your body so that you feel more relaxed, but at

2000
05:35:27.639 --> 05:35:43.959
the same time rejuvenated. And now I'm going to move

2001
05:35:44.080 --> 05:35:52.400
to one side, to your right side, and from the

2002
05:35:52.439 --> 05:35:57.959
bottom of your ribs to your pelvis, I'm going to

2003
05:35:58.080 --> 05:36:04.759
message that area of your back. I'll stretch over the

2004
05:36:04.840 --> 05:36:09.599
other side and i will pull the muscles gently and

2005
05:36:09.840 --> 05:36:14.599
massage and push from one end that side or the

2006
05:36:14.639 --> 05:36:19.680
way to my side to the middle of fact to

2007
05:36:19.720 --> 05:36:24.880
where your spine is. Massage in that side of your spine,

2008
05:36:26.560 --> 05:36:31.759
the opposite side to where I'm standing. It's almost like

2009
05:36:31.959 --> 05:36:39.959
kneading bread. There's that big area which is firm yet

2010
05:36:41.000 --> 05:36:49.840
lots there to massage. Potentially one of the most important

2011
05:36:49.919 --> 05:36:57.080
places to actually have a message because you really feel it.

2012
05:36:59.000 --> 05:37:03.479
You really feel or the release and the pleasure of

2013
05:37:03.720 --> 05:37:11.400
having your lower back massaged. It releases so much from

2014
05:37:11.479 --> 05:37:21.439
your body that's not useful, starting a healing process which

2015
05:37:21.520 --> 05:37:34.720
will continue long after this recording is over. The message

2016
05:37:34.759 --> 05:37:37.720
in this part of your body not only feels really

2017
05:37:37.840 --> 05:37:43.799
good for you, it's actually fun to do because it is,

2018
05:37:44.360 --> 05:37:49.360
as I said, like kneading bread. It's a part that

2019
05:37:49.439 --> 05:37:54.680
you can really get hold of and really massage deeply.

2020
05:37:56.959 --> 05:38:07.159
If that's your choice, then I'm going to move over

2021
05:38:07.240 --> 05:38:09.560
to the other side of your body and do the

2022
05:38:09.680 --> 05:38:21.479
same with the opposite part of your lower back, kneading

2023
05:38:21.720 --> 05:38:29.840
and messaging from your sides all the way to the

2024
05:38:29.919 --> 05:38:37.680
middle of your back where your spine is pressing and

2025
05:38:38.119 --> 05:38:48.720
kneading firm and gentle at the same time. It feels

2026
05:38:49.200 --> 05:39:01.720
so releasing this mixture of pleasure, comfort, release, almless, relaxation

2027
05:39:03.119 --> 05:39:13.040
or mixed together. Plus there's that feeling from your stomach

2028
05:39:13.560 --> 05:39:18.520
as it's being stretched. Even though you're in your stomach now,

2029
05:39:19.119 --> 05:39:22.919
you can feel it being stretched because that whole area

2030
05:39:23.080 --> 05:39:34.119
is connected to your stomach. Now we're going to move

2031
05:39:34.439 --> 05:39:39.200
or move further up to your top of your body

2032
05:39:39.840 --> 05:39:46.400
and I we do the same this time, starting with

2033
05:39:47.560 --> 05:39:53.119
your upper back, put my hands forward over and messing

2034
05:39:53.279 --> 05:40:00.279
massage in that area up to your spine, from the

2035
05:40:00.439 --> 05:40:04.599
side of your body up to your spine. So some

2036
05:40:04.759 --> 05:40:11.439
of that massage area, the muscle tissue or whatever fatty

2037
05:40:11.520 --> 05:40:16.959
tissue even will be possibly from your chest because all

2038
05:40:17.080 --> 05:40:24.000
connected the chest and the back connect together. I'm going

2039
05:40:24.040 --> 05:40:27.639
to be massaging and just pulling some of that skin

2040
05:40:28.959 --> 05:40:38.279
from your side up and massaging that area of your

2041
05:40:38.360 --> 05:40:46.840
upper back all the way to your spine. And then

2042
05:40:46.880 --> 05:40:49.599
I'll move down a bit, and I'll continue with the

2043
05:40:49.720 --> 05:40:56.520
middle of your back, doing exactly the same thing as

2044
05:40:56.680 --> 05:41:10.639
gentle or as deep you choose. Now move or the

2045
05:41:10.720 --> 05:41:15.560
other side again and do the exact same thing with

2046
05:41:15.799 --> 05:41:19.880
the top of your back on the other side, from

2047
05:41:25.040 --> 05:41:33.720
pretty much underneath your arm area really to your spine,

2048
05:41:38.840 --> 05:41:45.639
and then continuing that all the way down, including the

2049
05:41:45.799 --> 05:42:03.080
lower your middle of your back. I'm gonna go to

2050
05:42:03.240 --> 05:42:09.880
your thighs, the backs of your thighs, and the sides

2051
05:42:09.959 --> 05:42:19.560
of your thighs, starting with your right leg. Massage in

2052
05:42:20.919 --> 05:42:30.119
the back and the sides of your thighs gently and firmly.

2053
05:42:32.240 --> 05:42:35.680
There's a lot of muscles there. It's an area that

2054
05:42:35.799 --> 05:42:39.959
can be very tense at times and maybe needs a

2055
05:42:40.040 --> 05:42:42.479
little bit more pressure than the rest of the body

2056
05:42:43.520 --> 05:42:51.240
that's up to you. You can gently stroke the back

2057
05:42:54.080 --> 05:42:58.400
of your legs where you know opposite your knee joint

2058
05:43:00.040 --> 05:43:12.799
uneath your knee joint, very sensitive, gentle area. And then

2059
05:43:13.000 --> 05:43:20.360
working down to your calf muscles, Massage in your calf

2060
05:43:20.479 --> 05:43:30.040
muscles thoroughly and deeply, if you choose, using both hands

2061
05:43:34.200 --> 05:43:48.560
and fingers, digging deep to your ankles, in the back

2062
05:43:48.639 --> 05:43:55.279
of your back of your ankles, just gently massage in

2063
05:43:55.400 --> 05:44:07.119
that area, maybe lifting the leg and stretching it a

2064
05:44:07.159 --> 05:44:32.799
little bit. Moving to the right foot, massaging the bottom

2065
05:44:32.840 --> 05:44:47.000
of your feet and the side of your fate gently

2066
05:44:47.279 --> 05:44:56.520
but firm enough so they don't tickle, and just allow

2067
05:44:59.159 --> 05:45:01.720
the pleasure of you you get from heaving your feet

2068
05:45:01.840 --> 05:45:11.479
massaged to just overtake you. As I continue to message

2069
05:45:11.520 --> 05:45:21.040
your feet, the bottoms of your feet, the sides, your arches,

2070
05:45:21.720 --> 05:45:26.479
your heel. You can put a lot of pressure into

2071
05:45:26.560 --> 05:45:32.639
your heel and it feels amazing, Yet the arches need

2072
05:45:32.720 --> 05:45:41.119
to be a bit more gentle. Stretching your toes gently

2073
05:45:43.840 --> 05:45:48.159
and massage in the bottoms of your toes with my fingers,

2074
05:45:50.599 --> 05:46:04.400
each one individually. Moving her to the left leg to

2075
05:46:04.520 --> 05:46:12.759
do exactly the same thing. Starting at the top of

2076
05:46:12.840 --> 05:46:17.479
the thighs, work in the back of the thighs and

2077
05:46:17.599 --> 05:46:30.000
the sides, massaging deeply and gently that whole area, working

2078
05:46:30.080 --> 05:46:39.159
all the way down. And this is an area that

2079
05:46:40.279 --> 05:46:48.080
maybe you could like to spend more time relaxing and massaging.

2080
05:46:50.959 --> 05:46:56.400
So perhaps if you wanted, I could big a future recording.

2081
05:46:57.080 --> 05:47:05.880
Want's spend more time on one particular area. As you

2082
05:47:06.040 --> 05:47:19.040
move down to your calf muscles, Massage in your calf muscles,

2083
05:47:20.520 --> 05:47:34.439
firmly and gently, moving down your aincol into your feet.

2084
05:47:36.319 --> 05:47:42.040
Massage in the backs of your feet, the bottoms of

2085
05:47:42.119 --> 05:47:52.119
your feet, stretching your toes and massage in each toe individually.

2086
05:47:54.720 --> 05:48:00.000
And the feeling of pleasure and release that you experience

2087
05:48:00.000 --> 05:48:19.040
Pence when you're having your feet messaged feels really good. Now,

2088
05:48:22.560 --> 05:48:26.599
she turn over in your mind. Laying on your back,

2089
05:48:34.000 --> 05:48:39.720
I'm just going to start again for your neck area,

2090
05:48:46.720 --> 05:48:54.400
in your shoulders, just to get back in touch with

2091
05:48:54.560 --> 05:49:11.639
that area, and lets to move up. I can clean

2092
05:49:11.759 --> 05:49:16.439
my hands, make them more fresh, because now I'm gonna

2093
05:49:16.479 --> 05:49:32.840
message your face gently, starting off with your forehead. Your

2094
05:49:32.919 --> 05:49:38.919
eyes are closed and I can just stretch your eyes

2095
05:49:39.200 --> 05:49:51.000
a little bit, pushing up on your eyebrows, just massaging around,

2096
05:49:51.159 --> 05:50:03.000
just scalp, massaging down your ch peeks, around your ears,

2097
05:50:06.080 --> 05:50:18.880
into your jaw, gently the side of your neck, your

2098
05:50:19.080 --> 05:50:36.959
chin mm hmm, and just moving down from your neck

2099
05:50:37.200 --> 05:50:44.919
down to your chest, starting by massage in the very

2100
05:50:45.080 --> 05:50:53.560
top of your chest where the collar bone is. Give

2101
05:50:53.639 --> 05:51:05.360
a side of the collarbone, and then just message in

2102
05:51:05.560 --> 05:51:26.639
the whole of the chest, moving the chest around, because

2103
05:51:26.680 --> 05:51:31.360
it's quite a large area. You can move from one

2104
05:51:31.560 --> 05:51:42.520
side to the next, moving my hands underneath pretty much

2105
05:51:42.560 --> 05:51:52.040
where your arms are stretching up, stretching some of the

2106
05:51:52.119 --> 05:52:01.360
muscles of your back in the process, moving up over

2107
05:52:01.479 --> 05:52:21.360
your chest and they're moving down again, and then allowing

2108
05:52:21.439 --> 05:52:28.560
my hands to just massage gently and slide down towards

2109
05:52:28.599 --> 05:52:36.560
your stomach, starting in the middle of your chest, and

2110
05:52:36.720 --> 05:52:43.400
then gradually my hands moving apart and massage in and

2111
05:52:43.639 --> 05:52:52.680
slide in at the same time, moving down to just

2112
05:52:52.799 --> 05:53:08.319
below your red cage, moving down, then messaging up again,

2113
05:53:11.119 --> 05:53:19.000
giving your chest all the attention that it needs to

2114
05:53:19.200 --> 05:53:31.439
feel completely relaxed. Remembering that I'm also going to be

2115
05:53:31.560 --> 05:53:37.560
focusing on your sides as well, an area that really

2116
05:53:37.840 --> 05:53:45.400
doesn't get much attention but feels really good when it's massaged.

2117
05:53:50.319 --> 05:53:54.319
Just stroking my hands down the sides of your body,

2118
05:53:58.119 --> 05:54:01.560
just below your arms, all the way down to your hips.

2119
05:54:11.200 --> 05:54:17.040
Now move into your stomach area. We're going to stand

2120
05:54:17.200 --> 05:54:19.880
one side of you like I did when I did

2121
05:54:19.919 --> 05:54:25.119
your lower back. We're going to do a similar process

2122
05:54:26.159 --> 05:54:36.840
of just stretching the muscles from your side, gently massaging

2123
05:54:41.040 --> 05:54:48.919
from one side to the next, moving a whole area

2124
05:54:49.959 --> 05:54:53.880
from below your ribs all the way down to below

2125
05:54:53.959 --> 05:55:03.560
your belly button and then move around to the other

2126
05:55:03.680 --> 05:55:19.479
side of you and repeat that process of relaxing deeply, calmly.

2127
05:55:22.639 --> 05:55:29.799
You feel loose, you feel free. And it's something about

2128
05:55:29.919 --> 05:55:34.759
having your stomach massage that's different from any other part

2129
05:55:38.279 --> 05:55:42.799
because we do have a tendency of holding a different

2130
05:55:42.959 --> 05:55:46.959
kind of stress in our stomach that we may not

2131
05:55:47.080 --> 05:55:58.119
be aware of. As I now massage your stomach in

2132
05:55:58.240 --> 05:56:05.279
front of your stomach, they can circles around your belly

2133
05:56:05.360 --> 05:56:20.080
button and then going the other way around. There's a

2134
05:56:20.279 --> 05:56:27.159
gentleness and a freedom that comes from feeling how you're feeling.

2135
05:56:32.680 --> 05:56:37.360
As I now move down the tops of your thighs,

2136
05:56:39.119 --> 05:56:44.919
the muscles, massaging them, and I can do this two

2137
05:56:45.080 --> 05:56:55.360
legs at the same time, pressing down massaging deeply those

2138
05:56:55.520 --> 05:57:04.560
muscles in your thighs at front of your thighs, and

2139
05:57:04.759 --> 05:57:15.959
moving down to your knees, gently massaging your knees, sliding

2140
05:57:16.119 --> 05:57:21.599
down your shins, putting pressure on either side of your

2141
05:57:21.680 --> 05:57:34.520
shin gently softly but firmly, moving down to your ankles,

2142
05:57:39.479 --> 05:57:49.119
stroking the tops of your feet, and then with each

2143
05:57:50.479 --> 05:57:55.880
foot in each hand, just gently messaging the whole of

2144
05:57:56.000 --> 05:58:04.759
the foot. The top, the bottom, your heel, your ankle,

2145
05:58:05.599 --> 05:58:17.919
your toes, messaging every part of your feet. Feel so good.

2146
05:58:18.680 --> 05:58:35.439
Just let go and enjoy the process. Enjoy feeling so

2147
05:58:35.799 --> 05:58:50.279
deeply relaxed, so much comfort, and so many feelings that

2148
05:58:50.479 --> 05:59:04.919
come just from touching your skin. And you can just

2149
05:59:06.080 --> 05:59:15.520
lie there for as long as you choose, enjoying the

2150
05:59:15.799 --> 05:59:34.040
feeling of deep comfort from being massaged by me. Enjoy

2151
05:59:37.720 --> 05:59:55.639
feeling deeply laxed. And all we're going to do is

2152
05:59:59.240 --> 06:00:15.759
blow out some candles. In your mind, there are going

2153
06:00:15.799 --> 06:00:26.200
to be a hundred candles, and you're going to blow

2154
06:00:26.360 --> 06:00:36.759
each one out individually, one by one, starting at one hundred.

2155
06:00:37.840 --> 06:00:45.200
As I count down all the way down to one,

2156
06:00:49.720 --> 06:00:58.639
and each time I say a number, you can imagine

2157
06:00:58.680 --> 06:01:05.279
that candle front of you, and I'd like you to

2158
06:01:05.439 --> 06:01:24.759
actually physically gently blow that candle out, just so it's

2159
06:01:24.799 --> 06:01:36.279
not big blows, just a gentle, and that candle will extinguish.

2160
06:01:41.000 --> 06:01:45.560
And then I'll say the next number as we moved down,

2161
06:01:48.799 --> 06:01:55.319
and you can just blow that one out as well.

2162
06:02:01.240 --> 06:02:09.759
And as we move down the numbers, you'll find yourself

2163
06:02:10.919 --> 06:02:19.520
feeling more and more relaxed. And if you need to sleep,

2164
06:02:20.439 --> 06:02:32.560
you also find yourself becoming incredibly tired and sleepy. In fact,

2165
06:02:32.680 --> 06:02:42.720
you may struggle to blow out all one hundred of

2166
06:02:42.880 --> 06:03:01.279
these candles as you feel more and more deeply relaxed,

2167
06:03:08.000 --> 06:03:25.959
more and more deeply tired, and the further you go down,

2168
06:03:28.599 --> 06:03:42.240
the more your mind starts to drift. You may find

2169
06:03:42.639 --> 06:03:57.040
that you stop listening to me after a while, and

2170
06:03:57.279 --> 06:04:06.520
even though there maybe background sounds where you are, you'll

2171
06:04:06.560 --> 06:04:17.919
be aware of those sounds at the moment, be me

2172
06:04:21.439 --> 06:04:36.240
start to just not even notice them at all, because

2173
06:04:36.400 --> 06:04:49.959
they're unimportant. Where I am, I've got the sounds of

2174
06:04:50.080 --> 06:04:57.319
the birds, there's horrors, the pigeon who likes to say hello.

2175
06:04:57.599 --> 06:05:09.520
Sometimes there's the odd plane that goes by, maybe traffic

2176
06:05:09.840 --> 06:05:20.680
and trains in the distance, but none of that seems

2177
06:05:20.919 --> 06:05:35.759
important whatsoever. More candles you blow out, the less important.

2178
06:05:36.639 --> 06:05:38.799
Anything is.

2179
06:05:43.479 --> 06:05:52.520
The more candles you blow out, the further you seem

2180
06:05:52.919 --> 06:06:12.200
to move away from sounds and from general date days.

2181
06:06:12.639 --> 06:06:27.680
Stuff seems to just move away on its own. You

2182
06:06:28.400 --> 06:06:49.159
feel more calma with every candle you blow out, guiding

2183
06:06:49.400 --> 06:07:05.720
you the next number, do you hear me say? And

2184
06:07:05.880 --> 06:07:23.759
then you blow that candle out to so easy, so simple,

2185
06:07:33.319 --> 06:07:47.279
We're gonna start by introducing the first candle, which is

2186
06:07:47.400 --> 06:08:04.639
a hundred first candle. This is one hundred. When you

2187
06:08:05.599 --> 06:08:21.880
blow that candle out, you'll find immediately a slight change

2188
06:08:25.759 --> 06:08:34.000
in how you feel, as well as a real sense

2189
06:08:34.200 --> 06:09:04.799
of positivity growing within you, relaxation and sleepiness expanding. Starting

2190
06:09:05.479 --> 06:09:57.360

Foo and doy.

2221
07:05:35.639 --> 07:06:51.319
Seven two candle or lego of all of those thoughts, worries,

2222
07:06:51.639 --> 07:06:57.759
concerns about the past, thoughts about the future, and even

2223
07:06:59.240 --> 07:07:03.560
things you've been thinking about today. Just let it all

2224
07:07:03.639 --> 07:07:09.880
go because none of it is useful in this moment.

2225
07:07:14.759 --> 07:07:30.159
This is your opportunity to just focus on feeling relaxed,

2226
07:07:34.479 --> 07:07:40.880
allowing yourself to get in touch with that natural sense

2227
07:07:42.959 --> 07:07:51.080
of peace that we all have within us. It's available

2228
07:07:51.159 --> 07:07:56.000
for everyone. It just sometimes takes a little bit of

2229
07:07:56.159 --> 07:08:03.560
effort to set up the right time and place in

2230
07:08:03.799 --> 07:08:10.040
order for you to just let go. Because when you

2231
07:08:10.240 --> 07:08:18.040
do decide to let go and relax, that's what your

2232
07:08:18.080 --> 07:08:26.799
body starts to do because you've chosen, You've chosen to

2233
07:08:27.240 --> 07:08:34.319
just allow your body to unwind and your mind starts

2234
07:08:34.439 --> 07:08:41.880
to slow down. And it's a nice feeling. It's a

2235
07:08:42.000 --> 07:08:46.240
nice feeling at the beginning, just to know that you

2236
07:08:46.720 --> 07:08:56.959
have chosen to decide to relax deeply, and because you've

2237
07:08:57.080 --> 07:09:06.240
made that decision, body or just follow suit, because sometimes

2238
07:09:06.479 --> 07:09:11.200
all the muscles in your body need is just permission

2239
07:09:11.479 --> 07:09:20.319
from you to relax. Because so often we're busy, we're

2240
07:09:20.840 --> 07:09:24.599
going from here to there, we're walking around, and we're

2241
07:09:24.720 --> 07:09:32.040
doing stuff, and the body doesn't have any time or

2242
07:09:32.240 --> 07:09:40.880
space to really relax deeply. So it kind of waits

2243
07:09:41.000 --> 07:09:46.080
for you to lead the way, waits for your permission

2244
07:09:50.439 --> 07:09:56.919
and when you do give your permission. When you give

2245
07:09:56.959 --> 07:10:03.279
the say so we need say okay, it's time for

2246
07:10:03.400 --> 07:10:13.040
your body to let go completely and relax totally. Your

2247
07:10:13.080 --> 07:10:22.560
body just follows. It's like a breath of relief. Ah. Good,

2248
07:10:22.639 --> 07:10:29.560
I can now relax. That feeling at the end of

2249
07:10:29.639 --> 07:10:32.880
a day, of a very physical day that you may

2250
07:10:32.959 --> 07:10:36.799
experience in the past. But you get home and you

2251
07:10:37.000 --> 07:10:40.720
just sit down on a chair, maybe you kick your

2252
07:10:40.840 --> 07:10:46.959
shoes off and not. Ah, feels so nice knowing that

2253
07:10:47.040 --> 07:10:51.080
you don't have to get up again for a little

2254
07:10:51.119 --> 07:10:54.759
while at least, if you choose, you can just sit

2255
07:10:54.919 --> 07:11:07.439
there for maybe an hour to It feels blissful. And

2256
07:11:07.759 --> 07:11:12.720
just by sitting down like that, your body knows that

2257
07:11:12.880 --> 07:11:18.279
it's time to relax. Your body has been given permission

2258
07:11:18.520 --> 07:11:28.200
from you. Because it's a mindset in your mind, you're

2259
07:11:28.279 --> 07:11:40.040
prepared to let go of everything and just completely allow

2260
07:11:40.439 --> 07:11:49.400
all the stress of your body to evaporate. Any tensions

2261
07:11:49.759 --> 07:12:08.560
can just gradually vanish. It's almost like magic, really, because

2262
07:12:08.959 --> 07:12:15.479
that sense of relaxation in your body is a very

2263
07:12:15.639 --> 07:12:22.400
natural state. It's not something unusual. It may feel unusual

2264
07:12:22.720 --> 07:12:25.599
when you first start to relax, if you if you

2265
07:12:25.720 --> 07:12:30.919
haven't really spent a lot of time focusing and giving

2266
07:12:31.000 --> 07:12:36.240
yourself this space to let go completely and relax. They

2267
07:12:36.400 --> 07:12:44.159
seem are most alien, but it isn't. It's actually the

2268
07:12:44.319 --> 07:12:49.279
most natural thing in the world to let go completely,

2269
07:12:51.000 --> 07:12:58.799
to relax totally, the most natural thing in the world

2270
07:13:01.479 --> 07:13:11.520
to allow yourself to feel really calm in your mind.

2271
07:13:14.119 --> 07:13:21.799
And it is almost like a literal unwinding. It's like

2272
07:13:21.959 --> 07:13:29.520
you press a button and all the tension just releases,

2273
07:13:30.919 --> 07:13:34.319
and it's like a wheel, like a cog, like the

2274
07:13:34.400 --> 07:13:38.319
inside of a clock, just unwinding. And it's almost like

2275
07:13:38.479 --> 07:13:43.560
you could see the little wind up knob that's used

2276
07:13:44.479 --> 07:13:48.520
just going the opposite way that you choose to wind

2277
07:13:48.560 --> 07:13:57.080
it up, and the energy that fremetic stress for energy

2278
07:13:58.599 --> 07:14:08.880
gradually winding down, losing its power, losing its strength as

2279
07:14:08.959 --> 07:14:18.360
a sense of relaxation becomes stronger and deeper, and you

2280
07:14:18.560 --> 07:14:26.680
may find a the more relaxed you feel, that your

2281
07:14:26.880 --> 07:14:36.840
mind starts to wonder, maybe just seem to stop listening

2282
07:14:36.919 --> 07:14:41.560
to me for a while, and your mind goes somewhere else,

2283
07:14:42.959 --> 07:14:48.799
and then you realize you're listening to me again, and

2284
07:14:48.919 --> 07:14:56.000
that's just your mind drifting to sleep, which is quite

2285
07:14:57.479 --> 07:15:07.000
natural because times when we're stressed and tense, we're not

2286
07:15:07.279 --> 07:15:11.759
mean I actually be aware of what we need, what

2287
07:15:11.919 --> 07:15:20.520
we physically or emotionally need in this moment. But when

2288
07:15:20.720 --> 07:15:28.400
you allow your body and mind to relax completely and

2289
07:15:28.599 --> 07:15:37.240
you let go of all thoughts, concerns, worries, ideas, all

2290
07:15:37.680 --> 07:15:41.560
letting them go allow them to drop onto the floor.

2291
07:15:46.840 --> 07:15:52.840
When you start to get in touch with the feelings

2292
07:15:53.000 --> 07:16:04.720
of such relaxation, this feels so nice to be in

2293
07:16:04.919 --> 07:16:11.720
touch with the calmness of the different body parts as

2294
07:16:11.840 --> 07:16:27.520
they become looser and looser. Even your breathing seems easier

2295
07:16:28.200 --> 07:16:37.400
and more natural, effortless, as that cool air enters through

2296
07:16:37.439 --> 07:16:46.720
your mouth or nose into your lungs, breathing in comforts

2297
07:16:46.919 --> 07:16:55.240
and relaxation, and then just breathing out any excess remain

2298
07:16:55.479 --> 07:17:03.680
intentional stress from every part of your body and mind.

2299
07:17:07.279 --> 07:17:11.840
And as you start to focus on your mind, maybe

2300
07:17:12.400 --> 07:17:19.880
you notice that things have come to a standstill or

2301
07:17:20.000 --> 07:17:29.119
maybe just much much lower than before, because your mind

2302
07:17:29.319 --> 07:17:39.840
is not really needed when listening to my voice, which

2303
07:17:39.919 --> 07:17:46.400
allows your mind to relax just as deeply as your body.

2304
07:17:49.119 --> 07:17:57.400
And that's synchronicity between the relaxation of your body and

2305
07:18:00.159 --> 07:18:13.919
relaxation of your mind. Let you know that feeling completely calm, loose,

2306
07:18:14.279 --> 07:18:28.479
and relaxed really is a great healing experience fear and

2307
07:18:28.759 --> 07:18:41.240
has so many positive benefits for your body, mind, and

2308
07:18:41.360 --> 07:18:48.319
your life. To be able to let go over everything

2309
07:18:50.000 --> 07:18:58.680
and to relax completely in all parts of your body

2310
07:19:00.080 --> 07:19:10.080
and mind. Even your boneses are raxed, all your muscles

2311
07:19:10.680 --> 07:19:22.799
are relaxed, even the skin that covers your body.

2312
07:19:25.360 --> 07:19:26.279
Is relaxed.

2313
07:19:31.439 --> 07:19:42.919
Every hair that you have it is also deeply relaxed,

2314
07:19:49.080 --> 07:19:58.000
and your brain really starts to feel the benefits.

2315
07:19:59.240 --> 07:19:59.560
But this.

2316
07:20:01.159 --> 07:20:13.560
Healing relaxation, and as you focus on the inside of

2317
07:20:13.639 --> 07:20:19.360
your scalp where your brain is, you can start to

2318
07:20:19.639 --> 07:20:29.119
realize and notice the benefits of your brain relaxing deeply,

2319
07:20:33.479 --> 07:20:43.560
and as your brain continues to relax sends those messages

2320
07:20:45.240 --> 07:20:53.040
to the rest of your body and your mind to

2321
07:20:53.360 --> 07:21:16.080
re reax even more deeply, relaxy more completely, letting go

2322
07:21:16.319 --> 07:21:28.040
of any remaining force or concerns, allow them just to

2323
07:21:28.360 --> 07:21:35.840
drop onto the floor because they're no longer necessary in

2324
07:21:36.520 --> 07:21:47.599
this moment, In this moment of deep relaxation and calmness,

2325
07:21:49.959 --> 07:22:16.599
filling your brain with deep concentrated heathing, calming, relaxing, every

2326
07:22:17.279 --> 07:22:36.479
part of your brain, feeling so loose and comfortable, so relaxed,

2327
07:22:38.400 --> 07:22:50.279
and be peaceful. Your brain feels so light and so

2328
07:22:50.680 --> 07:23:02.479
healthy in that sense of deep deep comfort really does

2329
07:23:03.720 --> 07:23:17.919
allow you to enjoy those ever increasing sensations of comfort

2330
07:23:19.639 --> 07:23:32.400
that are spreading throughout your body, relaxing each and every

2331
07:23:32.799 --> 07:23:34.520
muscle of your body.

2332
07:23:36.599 --> 07:23:36.680
E.

2333
07:23:38.759 --> 07:24:00.520
Deeper and deeper, much more deeper than before, much more humph,

2334
07:24:03.240 --> 07:24:16.360
spreading through your body in your mind, be so peaceful

2335
07:24:16.919 --> 07:24:34.360
and calm, so very fairy, peaceful in avery part of

2336
07:24:34.599 --> 07:24:35.279
your body.

2337
07:24:36.959 --> 07:24:37.840
Letting go.

2338
07:24:39.880 --> 07:24:56.439
Mm hm, a everything averything, so peaceful and calm, so

2339
07:24:57.279 --> 07:25:11.759

all all the time, Such peace and comfort spreading through

2344
07:26:21.560 --> 07:26:36.240
your body and mind deep and deeper, Such comfort spreading

2345
07:26:37.560 --> 07:26:49.000
and sinking deeper into a muscle of your body, so

2346
07:26:49.240 --> 07:27:13.959
that you feel amazing, so laxed, so peaceful, so and peaceful,

2347
07:27:17.159 --> 07:27:31.479
letting go every going to do a body scan, focusing

2348
07:27:32.040 --> 07:27:37.720
on firstly how you feel in your body, not trying

2349
07:27:37.759 --> 07:27:44.119
to change how you feel, not trying to relax, not

2350
07:27:44.319 --> 07:27:49.919
trying to move away from any discomfort or stress or tension.

2351
07:27:51.200 --> 07:27:57.880
Just accepting, observing and accepting how you feel in the

2352
07:27:57.959 --> 07:28:04.279
different parts of your body, Just allowing yourself to be

2353
07:28:04.560 --> 07:28:12.080
exactly as you are, to notice to get in touch

2354
07:28:16.639 --> 07:28:23.959
with how you actually feel in this moment. I'm going

2355
07:28:24.000 --> 07:28:35.000
to start off by focusing on your hands. Just be

2356
07:28:35.119 --> 07:28:43.119
aware of your hands. I'd like you to move your

2357
07:28:43.240 --> 07:28:48.200
hands around. Just maybe move your fingers a little bit.

2358
07:28:50.639 --> 07:28:56.319
I've been and closing your hands very gently, just so

2359
07:28:56.759 --> 07:29:04.840
that you can gain but with how your hands and

2360
07:29:05.000 --> 07:29:26.000
your fingers fell, very very slow movements. Focusing now on

2361
07:29:26.200 --> 07:29:33.279
your feet, and if you can just do kind of

2362
07:29:33.279 --> 07:29:38.240
an equivalent with your feet is you've just done with

2363
07:29:38.400 --> 07:29:47.040
your hands, Maybe turn in your ankles, moving your feet around,

2364
07:29:49.040 --> 07:29:59.439
moving your toes gently, only very gently and very slowly,

2365
07:30:02.439 --> 07:30:17.840
noticing how your feet fell in this moment. Focusing now

2366
07:30:18.080 --> 07:30:18.880
and your eyes.

2367
07:30:21.919 --> 07:30:23.080
I like you to just.

2368
07:30:24.720 --> 07:30:30.479
Focus on your eyelids. Maybe you can open and close

2369
07:30:30.560 --> 07:30:34.759
your eyes a couple of times to really get in

2370
07:30:35.000 --> 07:30:39.080
touch with how you feel. When you do close your eyes,

2371
07:30:41.240 --> 07:30:47.639
the muscle changes in your eyes when you do close them.

2372
07:30:50.479 --> 07:30:56.840
Maybe raising your eyebrows, which stretches the tops of your eyes.

2373
07:31:00.080 --> 07:31:08.360
Perhaps squint in your eyes, scrunching up your eyes just

2374
07:31:08.479 --> 07:31:15.599
so you can hear it again, touch with all aspects

2375
07:31:17.040 --> 07:31:36.400
of how your eyes feel right now, now focusing on

2376
07:31:36.599 --> 07:31:40.959
your thighs, and you know it just starts you to

2377
07:31:41.560 --> 07:31:51.560
gently tense your thighs, just very very gently, just enough

2378
07:31:52.880 --> 07:32:03.560
so you can become more a tune to the physical

2379
07:32:04.200 --> 07:32:11.439
sensation of your upper legs, the front of your thighs,

2380
07:32:11.720 --> 07:32:22.759
and the backs of your thighs. Noticing and observing how

2381
07:32:25.080 --> 07:32:40.159
your thighs fear. Right now, moving your focus to the

2382
07:32:40.240 --> 07:32:47.119
back of your neck, just noticing the back of your neck,

2383
07:32:48.599 --> 07:32:53.880
the muscles, and of course they lead to the side

2384
07:32:53.919 --> 07:32:58.080
of your neck. They also lead to the top of

2385
07:32:58.159 --> 07:33:04.520
your back, which leads to your shoulders. So as your

2386
07:33:04.880 --> 07:33:10.560
focus on the back of your neck, maybe you can

2387
07:33:11.520 --> 07:33:17.040
move your head gently upwards as if you're looking up.

2388
07:33:19.000 --> 07:33:24.639
Maybe moving your head down as if you're looking down.

2389
07:33:27.759 --> 07:33:32.639
Perhaps moving your head side to side, right to left,

2390
07:33:34.680 --> 07:33:45.799
only very slowly and very gently. I'm not trying to

2391
07:33:46.240 --> 07:33:57.080
force anything. It has to be very very gentle, just

2392
07:33:57.759 --> 07:33:59.080
so you can.

2393
07:34:00.599 --> 07:34:02.200
Be more.

2394
07:34:03.840 --> 07:34:13.240
In touch with the feelings with the sensations, the physical

2395
07:34:14.639 --> 07:34:23.919
sensations of how the back of your neck feels. Right now,

2396
07:34:31.479 --> 07:34:39.439
as we now focus on the tops of your arms,

2397
07:34:41.799 --> 07:34:46.680
the parts where your biceps and your triceps are between

2398
07:34:46.720 --> 07:34:54.439
your elbow and your shoulders. Should focus on those parts

2399
07:34:55.439 --> 07:35:01.119
the tops of your arms. You may like to just

2400
07:35:01.880 --> 07:35:13.200
tense them, but very very gently and slowly, so you're

2401
07:35:13.240 --> 07:35:20.919
not straining or put in any pressure whatsoever.

2402
07:35:21.799 --> 07:35:22.720
On your arms.

2403
07:35:25.400 --> 07:35:32.040
It's just so that you can gain more of a

2404
07:35:32.400 --> 07:35:43.520
sense of how your upper arms are feeling in this moment,

2405
07:35:46.520 --> 07:35:57.240
and just noticing as you gently, very gently and slowly

2406
07:35:59.040 --> 07:36:09.720
tighten them up muscles, and then let go notice how

2407
07:36:09.919 --> 07:36:24.000
the tops of your arms feel right now. As a

2408
07:36:24.759 --> 07:36:35.479
now focus on your stomach, the area the lower abdomen

2409
07:36:35.560 --> 07:36:41.479
area below your belly button, moving all the way down

2410
07:36:44.880 --> 07:36:55.439
to your hips, just above your grind. Maybe you're able

2411
07:36:55.599 --> 07:37:05.520
to tense these muscles in the area very very gently

2412
07:37:08.959 --> 07:37:19.319
and slowly, if that's a difficult thing to do, and

2413
07:37:19.479 --> 07:37:28.479
maybe you can just move your body, pushing your stomach up,

2414
07:37:30.159 --> 07:37:34.040
maybe moving a little bit to the side using your hips,

2415
07:37:36.200 --> 07:37:44.360
just so you can get more in tune with how

2416
07:37:44.560 --> 07:37:48.080
your lower cappedomen area.

2417
07:37:51.560 --> 07:37:53.599
Is feeling.

2418
07:37:55.959 --> 07:38:13.560
In this moment, just noticing the physical sensations or your

2419
07:38:13.720 --> 07:38:32.639
lower abdomen as you move your attention to your mouth,

2420
07:38:38.040 --> 07:38:48.080
noticing your lips and inside your mouth, your teeth, your guns,

2421
07:38:49.479 --> 07:39:05.319
your tongue, just noticing how your tongue in your mouth feels.

2422
07:39:08.119 --> 07:39:15.720
And it may help by moving your tongue around your mouth,

2423
07:39:17.240 --> 07:39:23.439
moving it to your left, maybe pressing it gently against

2424
07:39:24.959 --> 07:39:29.479
the side of your mouth, and then to the right,

2425
07:39:31.040 --> 07:39:38.119
gently to the side of your mouth, perhaps pressing up

2426
07:39:38.200 --> 07:39:44.400
against the top of your mouth, and then down gently

2427
07:39:46.360 --> 07:39:57.240
against the bottom of your mouth, always very slowly, in

2428
07:39:57.360 --> 07:40:12.040
a very very gentle so that you can be aware

2429
07:40:17.319 --> 07:40:39.560
of how you feel in your mouth area. Now I'm

2430
07:40:39.639 --> 07:40:55.799
going to focus on your wrists, and I'll ask you

2431
07:40:56.200 --> 07:41:06.400
to maybe just routine yoursts by moving your hands in

2432
07:41:06.520 --> 07:41:19.759
a circular motion very gently and slowly, just so that

2433
07:41:20.040 --> 07:41:40.720
you can feel the sensations that you are currently experiencing

2434
07:41:41.360 --> 07:41:52.360
in your wrists. Perhaps move in your hands.

2435
07:41:53.639 --> 07:41:55.080
Up and down.

2436
07:41:57.520 --> 07:42:20.119
Again very very gently and slowly, very gentle.

2437
07:42:23.479 --> 07:42:24.840
And slow.

2438
07:42:38.279 --> 07:42:54.720
As we now start to observe you lower back. The

2439
07:42:55.040 --> 07:43:00.319
bay part is just a bum of your hair es

2440
07:43:04.599 --> 07:43:17.080
where your coxis are a whole area which also really

2441
07:43:17.279 --> 07:43:24.439
does include the size of your body, because those muscles

2442
07:43:24.520 --> 07:43:35.240
are very much connected as those muscles also move into

2443
07:43:35.360 --> 07:43:43.919
your hip area, connecting to your buttocks, the sides of

2444
07:43:44.040 --> 07:43:58.639
your hips, and if you're physically able to do so,

2445
07:44:00.880 --> 07:44:12.040
maybe you can very gently just movebody ever so slightly,

2446
07:44:14.400 --> 07:44:31.000
very slowly from side to side, just enough to gauge

2447
07:44:36.240 --> 07:44:49.560
how you feel in your lower back. Perhaps it could

2448
07:44:49.680 --> 07:45:04.880
even move your hips gently up and down, gently, slowly,

2449
07:45:08.159 --> 07:45:21.959
in order to really be in touch with the physical sensations.

2450
07:45:22.360 --> 07:45:23.799
Of your law back.

2451
07:45:40.599 --> 07:45:41.319
As we know.

2452
07:45:46.560 --> 07:45:57.240
To your attention to your jaw, an area for your

2453
07:45:57.479 --> 07:46:03.119
chin all way out the near ware. Your ears are.

2454
07:46:06.240 --> 07:46:21.319
The hole of your jaw. You can just, if it's

2455
07:46:21.479 --> 07:46:32.880
okay to do gently open your mouth, not wide, no stretching,

2456
07:46:34.159 --> 07:46:47.759
just very gently and slowly opening your mouth in closing

2457
07:46:47.880 --> 07:47:05.799
your mouth very gently and slowly, so you can.

2458
07:47:08.759 --> 07:47:10.000
Be in touch.

2459
07:47:16.439 --> 07:47:50.279
With how your jaw feels. Now. I to sit now

2460
07:47:53.159 --> 07:48:06.040
the chest area, and you don't need to do anything

2461
07:48:07.959 --> 07:48:14.840
to move your chest because it moves every time you breathe,

2462
07:48:19.959 --> 07:48:33.200
and it moves very gently and slowly automatically with each

2463
07:48:33.680 --> 07:48:48.680
breath you take. As you focus on how your chest

2464
07:48:53.880 --> 07:49:34.720
feels when you prayth move in your focus to your forearms,

2465
07:49:37.240 --> 07:49:50.560
your elbows. Maybe you're able to very gently.

2466
07:49:52.000 --> 07:49:54.080
And slowly.

2467
07:49:55.799 --> 07:50:03.840
Tense the muscles in your forearm. Yes, and when you

2468
07:50:04.040 --> 07:50:20.479
do that, you can feel your elbows as well, very

2469
07:50:21.080 --> 07:50:57.439
gently and slowly, gently and softly obsad your forearms and elbows.

2470
07:51:08.080 --> 07:51:31.240
No focus the rest of your back, your upper back

2471
07:51:35.759 --> 07:51:53.200
in the middle, the middle of your back again, this

2472
07:51:53.840 --> 07:52:03.919
part of your body. News. Also every time you pray,

2473
07:52:08.919 --> 07:52:22.560
you may not notice that usually makes you observe your

2474
07:52:22.720 --> 07:52:29.919
upper back in the middle of your back. You can

2475
07:52:30.200 --> 07:53:26.360
really feel that gentle and slow movement moving your focus

2476
07:53:28.360 --> 07:53:42.119
into your head area of buttees, no grain, there's muscles

2477
07:53:42.319 --> 07:54:19.240
and those bones in your midsection. Just noticing how your

2478
07:54:19.520 --> 07:54:42.720
hips feel. Right now, you can very very gently move

2479
07:54:43.080 --> 07:55:28.319
your hips, maybe side to side, very gently and softly

2480
07:55:36.040 --> 07:55:59.200
and slow. Everything starts to slow down, including the thoughts

2481
07:55:59.360 --> 07:56:09.520
in your mind and your mind itself just starts to gradually.

2482
07:56:11.520 --> 07:56:18.080
It doesn't have to be instant, but just gradually starting too.

2483
07:56:19.400 --> 07:56:28.200
It's almost like time is stre chin It's a slower

2484
07:56:28.360 --> 07:56:36.200
pace to maybe what you're used to in your day

2485
07:56:36.279 --> 07:56:58.279
to day life. It's a slower movement of energy, very

2486
07:57:02.680 --> 07:57:11.119
small movements which make up the larger movements, which is

2487
07:57:11.200 --> 07:57:18.919
always the case. Now, when you move your hand, it

2488
07:57:19.080 --> 07:57:21.799
might seem like it's one movement, but it's lots of

2489
07:57:22.599 --> 07:57:30.040
minute different muscles moving in accordance with each other. And

2490
07:57:35.000 --> 07:57:47.319
what happens in this space that we're sharing is we

2491
07:57:47.560 --> 07:58:08.479
move from that big movement into those smaller movements. Starting

2492
07:58:08.639 --> 07:58:19.439
to focus on how your body feels, not just as

2493
07:58:19.479 --> 07:58:23.799
a whole, not just oh, i'm feel in this way.

2494
07:58:23.880 --> 07:58:29.959
I'm feeling stressed or tense, or I'm feeling relaxed and calm,

2495
07:58:31.279 --> 07:58:37.880
I'm feeling this way, I'm feeling that way. Starting to

2496
07:58:38.119 --> 07:58:49.319
notice that your body begins to present to you small

2497
07:58:50.439 --> 07:59:06.799
feelings around your body, more physical sensations in your legs,

2498
07:59:09.560 --> 07:59:22.799
whether pleasurable or not. Maybe resisting the temptation to label

2499
07:59:22.880 --> 07:59:32.400
them or to judge them those feelings. Just thinking them,

2500
07:59:33.319 --> 07:59:46.279
thinking about them is just being neutral, just feelings, not

2501
07:59:46.520 --> 07:59:57.599
being particularly concerned, but just noticing what your body is

2502
07:59:57.720 --> 08:00:11.439
telling you. The feelings in your arms. Instead of feeling

2503
08:00:11.599 --> 08:00:20.279
the whole of the arm, maybe notice those individual feelings,

2504
08:00:21.720 --> 08:00:33.200
all those different muscles and the skin, the hairs of

2505
08:00:33.319 --> 08:00:39.080
your arms, all the internal parts of your arms, the veins,

2506
08:00:49.200 --> 08:00:58.360
the bones, just being aware of maybe your elbow on

2507
08:00:58.479 --> 08:01:06.799
your right arm has a certain feeling. Maybe your left

2508
08:01:06.959 --> 08:01:32.159
wrist also has its own individual physical sensation. What about

2509
08:01:32.200 --> 08:01:45.919
your forearm on your right arm, your right forearm, there

2510
08:01:45.959 --> 08:01:52.200
may not be any particular feeling that you could even

2511
08:01:53.919 --> 08:02:01.000
give a name to, may not feel like anything other

2512
08:02:01.119 --> 08:02:11.599
than just a feeling. You know, it's there. The feelings

2513
08:02:11.639 --> 08:02:17.639
in your shoulders, perhaps your shoulders when you think about them,

2514
08:02:18.639 --> 08:02:21.880
you're kind of almost like they're the same, you know,

2515
08:02:23.119 --> 08:02:28.040
the same feeling, almost like you both of your shoulders

2516
08:02:28.119 --> 08:02:41.000
are just one thing. Of course they're not. And when

2517
08:02:41.080 --> 08:02:46.400
you focus on your left shoulder and then on your

2518
08:02:46.560 --> 08:02:53.400
right shoulder, maybe find that you move the muscles a

2519
08:02:53.439 --> 08:03:05.599
little bit, maybe tense the muscles gently, noticing the difference

2520
08:03:08.759 --> 08:03:36.520
in each shoulder. Your lower back, the left side of

2521
08:03:36.639 --> 08:03:40.360
your lower back and the right side of your lower

2522
08:03:40.479 --> 08:03:52.520
back of cause that connection to your buttocks and to

2523
08:03:52.720 --> 08:04:04.479
your hips, and also moving up into the middle of

2524
08:04:04.560 --> 08:04:18.439
your back. And sometimes like right now, actually when I

2525
08:04:18.520 --> 08:04:22.639
focus on their part, when I focused on my buttocks

2526
08:04:24.520 --> 08:04:28.240
and then I focused on the middle of my back,

2527
08:04:28.639 --> 08:04:31.400
it almost felt like the muscles in my lower back

2528
08:04:31.479 --> 08:04:41.319
were being stretched very gently, just stretched a little bit.

2529
08:04:43.279 --> 08:04:50.040
Even though I wasn't doing anything to try to stretch

2530
08:04:52.040 --> 08:04:56.360
your lower back, it just seemed to happen. The feeling

2531
08:04:57.040 --> 08:05:17.040
of very gently stretching your lower back comes along. I

2532
08:05:17.119 --> 08:05:41.959
have feeling in your chest, just noticing what sensations you

2533
08:05:42.680 --> 08:05:59.759
are experiencing in your chest right now. And there's same

2534
08:06:00.040 --> 08:06:04.319
much of the chest. Obviously, there's the collar bone leading

2535
08:06:04.520 --> 08:06:10.919
to the chest. You've got the chest bone, You've got

2536
08:06:10.959 --> 08:06:19.080
the muscles in your chest. Of course, if you're female,

2537
08:06:19.759 --> 08:06:30.159
there's possibly the breasts. You're male, you've got the different

2538
08:06:31.319 --> 08:06:33.040
well why not that different these days, but.

2539
08:06:35.240 --> 08:06:36.360
There may be more.

2540
08:06:38.119 --> 08:06:44.400
Muscles at the top of the chest, but at the

2541
08:06:44.560 --> 08:06:49.479
side underneath it's pretty much the same. Whether you're a

2542
08:06:49.560 --> 08:06:54.560
man or a woman. There's muscles there, muscles that stretch

2543
08:06:54.680 --> 08:06:59.520
out to your back as well as breast tissue it

2544
08:06:59.639 --> 08:07:08.000
stretched and moves into your back. To just being aware

2545
08:07:08.080 --> 08:07:28.639
of your chest, being with whatever feeling there is in

2546
08:07:28.759 --> 08:07:47.319
your chest. And when I noticed that, I focus on

2547
08:07:47.439 --> 08:07:55.080
my chest, I feel it in my back and my

2548
08:07:55.279 --> 08:07:59.400
upper back. I mean, I guess the obvious reason would

2549
08:07:59.400 --> 08:08:09.400
be because you know, I'll breathe in in then it

2550
08:08:09.560 --> 08:08:12.919
stretches my chest and my back at the same time.

2551
08:08:20.880 --> 08:08:36.080
It feels it feels okay, it doesn't feel I got

2552
08:08:36.119 --> 08:08:42.360
a little bit of pain in my right chest, a

2553
08:08:42.439 --> 08:08:45.880
little bit, not pain, but little discomfort, maybe.

2554
08:08:47.360 --> 08:08:55.880
Stiffness possibly, I don't know. I noticed my shoulders also

2555
08:08:57.599 --> 08:08:58.240
wanting to.

2556
08:09:00.560 --> 08:09:05.240
Flex for some reason. I think that's probably part of

2557
08:09:05.400 --> 08:09:13.720
my upper back, that connection between my shoulders and my

2558
08:09:13.840 --> 08:09:19.360
upper back, because I can move my shoulders and stretch

2559
08:09:19.520 --> 08:09:26.959
the muscles in my back, moving the shoulders backwards or up,

2560
08:09:28.959 --> 08:09:35.360
which then moves I think it's the scapulous in your back.

2561
08:09:45.400 --> 08:09:53.080
It feels quite nice. Actually, A good thing about this

2562
08:09:53.360 --> 08:09:58.159
is you can, if you want to, you can just

2563
08:10:01.720 --> 08:10:13.400
flex or stimulate the various muscles in your body gently

2564
08:10:14.840 --> 08:10:18.319
in order to get more of a sense of how

2565
08:10:18.400 --> 08:10:33.279
they feel. And when you're relaxing, when you do tense

2566
08:10:33.400 --> 08:10:37.319
and muscle and you let it go and you let

2567
08:10:37.360 --> 08:10:46.360
it relax, it relaxes way more than they would normally.

2568
08:10:51.479 --> 08:10:56.560
You have to feel that you're able to do that.

2569
08:10:58.200 --> 08:11:01.959
There's no point doing it if there is an issue

2570
08:11:03.880 --> 08:11:09.360
with the per part of your body. You need to

2571
08:11:09.439 --> 08:11:19.880
be gentle with yourself at all times. When we relaxing deeply,

2572
08:11:22.880 --> 08:11:38.119
it's important to be kind to yourself as you notice

2573
08:11:38.319 --> 08:11:49.400
your mind. How much has your mind slowed down since

2574
08:11:49.479 --> 08:11:52.479
we started this recording.

2575
08:12:08.520 --> 08:12:09.599
How calm.

2576
08:12:13.200 --> 08:12:24.840
And peaceful is your mind right now with nothing to

2577
08:12:24.959 --> 08:12:34.799
think about and just my voice to listen to, Because

2578
08:12:34.919 --> 08:12:45.880
you know, the intention behind this recording is relaxation. At

2579
08:12:45.919 --> 08:12:52.360
the very least, for you to feel more relaxed at

2580
08:12:52.400 --> 08:12:55.759
the end of the recording than you did at the beginning,

2581
08:13:00.919 --> 08:13:12.680
At the very least, your mind to slow down as

2582
08:13:12.799 --> 08:13:24.599
your body continues to relax, because that's.

2583
08:13:24.720 --> 08:13:25.279
What you.

2584
08:13:26.840 --> 08:13:46.680
Want to happen. That's what you expect to happen, for

2585
08:13:46.919 --> 08:14:05.119
relaxation to fill your body, maybe calm in your mind

2586
08:14:06.639 --> 08:14:14.119
to the point of boredom. When you start maybe to

2587
08:14:19.759 --> 08:15:00.520
drift away, drifting it's almost as if you're mhm, moving

2588
08:15:01.159 --> 08:15:09.040
further away from your body in your mind, just leaving

2589
08:15:09.240 --> 08:15:21.200
that there, kind of liking it an escape pod and

2590
08:15:21.319 --> 08:15:25.639
the spaceship a movie, a space movie. You know when

2591
08:15:25.680 --> 08:15:29.520
they get into that little pod in it, since the

2592
08:15:29.639 --> 08:15:54.159
man far away from the spaceship, safe to dream and

2593
08:15:54.400 --> 08:17:12.360
continue to relax, drifting so slow and be so so,

2594
08:17:26.560 --> 08:17:50.119
don't be so and focusing on the.

2595
08:17:52.360 --> 08:18:04.759
Feeving of those individual parts of your body that.

2596
08:18:07.880 --> 08:18:26.959
Are relaxing. One by one. You may find that every

2597
08:18:27.080 --> 08:18:38.159
now and then you realize that you weren't listening to

2598
08:18:38.319 --> 08:18:48.400
my voice because your mind started to imagine something different,

2599
08:18:49.840 --> 08:19:00.240
maybe started to almost move into some kind of a

2600
08:19:00.560 --> 08:19:09.400
dreamy state. And then you become aware of my voice again.

2601
08:19:13.040 --> 08:19:19.599
And even though you may want to focus on my voice,

2602
08:19:20.279 --> 08:19:27.720
you may also wish to allow your mind to just

2603
08:19:28.080 --> 08:19:47.919
drift naturally into that space of comfort and safety. As

2604
08:19:48.040 --> 08:20:05.479
you feel more comfort spreading through your body like a

2605
08:20:05.720 --> 08:20:20.080
warm blanket covering you gently, keeping your body at just

2606
08:20:22.799 --> 08:20:40.279
the perfect temperature. And even if you can hear background sounds,

2607
08:20:45.840 --> 08:20:58.360
they just don't seem to matter anymore. There's that sensor

2608
08:21:01.080 --> 08:21:17.919
peace spreads through your mind like a gentle breeze, Yes,

2609
08:21:18.080 --> 08:21:30.360
strong enough to blow away all negativity, strong.

2610
08:21:30.119 --> 08:21:30.599
Enough to.

2611
08:21:34.000 --> 08:21:44.119
Remove from your mind any anxiety or stress that was

2612
08:21:44.319 --> 08:21:59.360
there before, and blow away any other thoughts or feelings

2613
08:22:02.319 --> 08:22:25.880
just don't fit with the sense relaxation that is feeling

2614
08:22:28.439 --> 08:22:50.840
your body and your mind. And as you focus on

2615
08:22:51.000 --> 08:22:57.400
your mind and count down from ten down to one,

2616
08:22:58.799 --> 08:23:09.159
and with each number you hear, your mind will become

2617
08:23:15.240 --> 08:23:30.720
slightly more relaxed, just just slightly.

2618
08:23:33.279 --> 08:23:33.319
So.

2619
08:23:33.479 --> 08:23:40.520
From ten down to nine, just a slight movement from

2620
08:23:40.720 --> 08:23:52.959
nine down to eight, just another small change in how

2621
08:23:53.119 --> 08:24:06.119
you feel. Eight down to seven. That feeling is a gap,

2622
08:24:07.080 --> 08:24:12.599
almost like a gap that starts to get wider, the

2623
08:24:12.759 --> 08:24:21.000
gap between those feelings that you used to have in

2624
08:24:21.119 --> 08:24:30.040
your mind compared to the feelings you have there growing now,

2625
08:24:31.799 --> 08:24:41.599
feelings of comfort and security and confidence, and the gap

2626
08:24:42.040 --> 08:24:48.159
becomes wider. Eight down to seven, seven down to six.

2627
08:24:51.919 --> 08:24:57.000
When you get to five, your mind will start to

2628
08:24:58.319 --> 08:25:10.680
have a certain physical sensation, most like there's a magnet

2629
08:25:11.279 --> 08:25:17.599
outside of your head sucking the tension and the stress

2630
08:25:18.159 --> 08:25:25.040
and any remaining feelings that you don't want, sucking them

2631
08:25:25.240 --> 08:25:36.000
out through your skull. And in down to four you

2632
08:25:36.119 --> 08:25:44.759
can start to really experience that sense of not just emptiness,

2633
08:25:45.040 --> 08:25:58.560
but space, a place full of fresh air, the place

2634
08:25:58.599 --> 08:26:05.040
where you can strike, wretch. It's almost as if as

2635
08:26:05.080 --> 08:26:09.159
you go down to four and three, your mind is

2636
08:26:09.319 --> 08:26:23.840
expanding with this sense of peace and tranquility growing as

2637
08:26:23.880 --> 08:26:31.400
it moves down to When you get to one, your

2638
08:26:31.560 --> 08:26:43.319
mind just feels exactly how you want to feel. It's

2639
08:26:43.319 --> 08:27:01.279
almost perfect feeling, maybe the sensation that you'd like to

2640
08:27:01.560 --> 08:27:14.319
keep a place that's safe, where nothing can affect you

2641
08:27:15.400 --> 08:27:31.159
at all, and you can stay in that that space

2642
08:27:31.319 --> 08:27:41.200
of comfort and confidence, confident in your own ability to

2643
08:27:41.400 --> 08:27:48.080
create this space and this feeling of comfort within your

2644
08:27:48.279 --> 08:27:55.439
own mind just by counting and ten down to one.

2645
08:28:00.040 --> 08:28:04.520
And this is something that you can do yourself when

2646
08:28:04.560 --> 08:28:11.840
you're on your own, the time when you can maybe

2647
08:28:12.040 --> 08:28:20.639
sit down, maybe just for a few minutes, close your eyes,

2648
08:28:24.479 --> 08:28:36.119
just count slowly from ten down to one and re

2649
08:28:36.400 --> 08:28:49.279
experience these feelings in your mind. And when you feel

2650
08:28:49.400 --> 08:28:58.880
that way in your mind, your body copies your mind,

2651
08:29:04.759 --> 08:29:10.639
and the feeling is spread through your spine and your

2652
08:29:10.840 --> 08:29:18.639
nervous system into every part of your body, travels through

2653
08:29:18.680 --> 08:29:32.919
your blood stream, healing and relaxing every particle of your existence.

2654
08:29:45.599 --> 08:29:49.599
Now we can we can practice this a few times

2655
08:29:54.319 --> 08:29:57.319
before the end of the recording, and then you can

2656
08:29:58.840 --> 08:30:05.240
practice on your own. Each time you count for ten

2657
08:30:06.240 --> 08:30:21.279
about one, the feelings of comforts, calmness, deep deep relaxation

2658
08:30:22.520 --> 08:30:37.439
becomes stronger and deeper feeling your mind and your brain.

2659
08:30:39.080 --> 08:30:48.680
With these positive chemicals, the spread throughout your body, relaxing

2660
08:30:48.840 --> 08:31:00.400
you so quickly, relaxing your whole body and mind so very,

2661
08:31:02.040 --> 08:31:09.840
very easily. Just by counting for ten.

2662
08:31:12.520 --> 08:31:19.159
Down to one. That's what we're going to do.

2663
08:31:19.520 --> 08:31:23.200
Now, I'm going to count from ten down to one.

2664
08:31:24.240 --> 08:31:28.720
I'd like you to repeat the number after me. So

2665
08:31:28.880 --> 08:31:37.639
when I say ten, you can just repeat to yourself ten.

2666
08:31:43.240 --> 08:31:52.599
Just notice, be aware of how you feel in your

2667
08:31:52.759 --> 08:32:02.279
mind and your body. Then when I say nine, you

2668
08:32:02.400 --> 08:32:18.200
can beat to yourself nine again, noticing the increase in

2669
08:32:18.400 --> 08:32:26.360
comfort and calmness in your mind and in your body.

2670
08:32:32.360 --> 08:32:41.799
The same when I say eight, I want I say seven, six,

2671
08:32:44.360 --> 08:32:58.639
when I say five, four, when I say three, two,

2672
08:33:03.040 --> 08:33:08.000
and lastly you want to say one, you can repeat

2673
08:33:08.279 --> 08:33:09.599
that number.

2674
08:33:16.720 --> 08:33:16.840
Now.

2675
08:33:16.959 --> 08:33:22.520
Of course, when you do this on your own without

2676
08:33:22.639 --> 08:33:27.639
listening to me, you can say the numbers or whatever

2677
08:33:29.279 --> 08:33:37.720
speed that you feel is necessary for you, so you

2678
08:33:37.880 --> 08:33:43.799
can adapt. So you feel you want to say the

2679
08:33:43.959 --> 08:33:51.520
numbers ten down to one faster than I do, then

2680
08:33:51.520 --> 08:33:54.439
you go ahead and do that. Or if you feel

2681
08:33:55.279 --> 08:33:58.400
when you do it yourself that you'd like to have

2682
08:33:58.919 --> 08:34:06.959
more more space between the numbers, maybe take a lot

2683
08:34:07.200 --> 08:34:14.759
longer to get from ten all the way down to one,

2684
08:34:18.959 --> 08:34:31.479
that's your choice also to do. So I'm going to

2685
08:34:31.680 --> 08:34:33.400
count from ten down.

2686
08:34:33.279 --> 08:34:42.200
To one, and when I get to one, that will

2687
08:34:42.279 --> 08:34:43.560
be the end of.

2688
08:34:43.680 --> 08:34:50.400
This recording, unless, of course, you're listening with music, and

2689
08:34:50.520 --> 08:35:12.959
the music will continue nine.

2690
08:35:37.680 --> 08:41:01.680
Eight foot.

2691
08:39:31.520 --> 08:40:22.560
Twenty nineteen, eighteen, seventeen, sixteen, fifteen, fourteen, thirteen, twelve eleven, ten,

2692
08:40:27.279 --> 08:41:02.639
nine eight seven, six, five, four three two.

2693
08:41:08.880 --> 08:41:09.119
One.

2694
08:41:17.520 --> 08:41:27.880
Now open your eyes, noticing how you physically feel having

2695
08:41:28.000 --> 08:41:35.599
counted down from twenty to one, allowing stress and tension

2696
08:41:36.080 --> 08:41:40.720
to leave through your fingertips and your tas and as

2697
08:41:40.759 --> 08:41:45.479
you focus on your fingertips, maybe they feel a little

2698
08:41:45.520 --> 08:41:52.639
bit tingly, which is I suppose quite understanding, considering the

2699
08:41:52.840 --> 08:42:03.680
tension has been exiting your body through your fingertips. So

2700
08:42:03.799 --> 08:42:06.279
now I'm going to count from twenty down to one again.

2701
08:42:06.759 --> 08:42:15.200
This time you got to feel relief of tension and

2702
08:42:15.360 --> 08:42:26.240
stress and the anxiety that you may have leaving through

2703
08:42:26.279 --> 08:42:32.240
your stomach. Just leaving through your stomach, almost as if

2704
08:42:32.799 --> 08:42:39.240
it's just releasing the whole of your stomach. You'll nabl

2705
08:42:40.720 --> 08:42:43.680
to just above your chest or below your chest, rather

2706
08:42:44.799 --> 08:42:50.200
so surrounding your belly button area, the whole area you

2707
08:42:50.319 --> 08:42:55.080
can feel the tension of your body wherever's left, just

2708
08:42:55.959 --> 08:43:00.360
releasing from that area, and you may notice is that

2709
08:43:00.479 --> 08:43:06.720
your stomach will become very relaxed as I countdown from

2710
08:43:06.799 --> 08:43:51.040
twenty down to one now twenty nineteen, eighteen, seventeen, sixteen, fifteen, fourteen, thirteen,

2711
08:43:55.040 --> 08:44:04.639
twelve eleven, damn.

2712
08:44:08.799 --> 08:44:14.400
Nine eight.

2713
08:44:18.240 --> 08:44:22.639
Seven six.

2714
08:44:25.479 --> 08:44:31.080
Die ooh.

2715
08:44:34.959 --> 08:44:40.159
Three two.

2716
08:44:45.240 --> 08:44:45.279
What?

2717
08:44:50.240 --> 08:44:52.439
And you can open your eyes again if you choose,

2718
08:44:53.000 --> 08:44:56.639
or you can just keep them closed because it feels relaxing.

2719
08:44:58.720 --> 08:45:04.080
It's just notice saying, stomach feels. I notice, there's your focus.

2720
08:45:04.360 --> 08:45:09.040
Just do a little scan of your body, just to

2721
08:45:09.240 --> 08:45:22.680
notice how your body feels, focusing on your upper body, back, chest, stomach, legs, arms, hands, feet,

2722
08:45:25.720 --> 08:45:32.639
just noticing, and you know, you may start to feel

2723
08:45:35.159 --> 08:45:38.919
more of a sense of tiredness, which may be the

2724
08:45:39.040 --> 08:45:45.119
reason you're listening to this according because you would like

2725
08:45:45.360 --> 08:45:54.799
to let go completely of everything and dread off into

2726
08:45:54.919 --> 08:46:09.919
a nice, natural, calm, relaxing sleep. So now we're going

2727
08:46:09.959 --> 08:46:19.400
to focus on your forehead, and if you choose, you

2728
08:46:19.520 --> 08:46:24.560
can incorporate your eyes in this focus as well. Your

2729
08:46:24.639 --> 08:46:31.240
forehead and your eyes. It's that whole area basically almost

2730
08:46:31.279 --> 08:46:34.000
as if you were wearing a mask, you know, like

2731
08:46:34.159 --> 08:46:39.319
a I don't know, a Batman mask or something, or

2732
08:46:41.439 --> 08:46:44.360
I'm trying to zorro or something, you know, the kind

2733
08:46:44.400 --> 08:46:47.560
of mask that covers your eyes, but also covers quite

2734
08:46:47.560 --> 08:46:53.639
a lot of the forehead. I'm focusing on that area

2735
08:46:54.119 --> 08:46:56.400
because that's the area that we're now going to release

2736
08:46:57.319 --> 08:47:03.520
tension and stress from your mind, your brain, from your mind,

2737
08:47:03.639 --> 08:47:07.880
and any tension that you may have remain in your face,

2738
08:47:08.919 --> 08:47:14.240
in your neck and your jawl, your eyes, your forehead,

2739
08:47:14.840 --> 08:47:20.400
and or your scalp. So basically any tension within your

2740
08:47:20.560 --> 08:47:23.040
head area, including.

2741
08:47:22.639 --> 08:47:29.159
Your mind and your brain, and that's going.

2742
08:47:29.080 --> 08:47:37.319
To be released through your forehead and your eyes. As

2743
08:47:37.400 --> 08:47:43.560
I count down again from twenty down to one now

2744
08:47:46.040 --> 08:48:59.560
twenty nineteen, eighteen, seventeen, sixteen, fifteen, fourteen, thirteen, twelve, eleven, ten, nine, eight, seven, six,

2745
08:49:03.720 --> 08:49:36.799
Why or three? Cheh what? Noticing and she scan your

2746
08:49:36.959 --> 08:49:43.840
face with jaw, your eyes, the cheap bones, your ears,

2747
08:49:46.000 --> 08:49:53.119
your forehead, your scalp, your neck, the back of your neck,

2748
08:49:53.360 --> 08:49:56.959
in the front of your neck, the side of your neck,

2749
08:49:57.119 --> 08:49:57.880
and the throat.

2750
08:49:59.360 --> 08:50:00.520
H M.

2751
08:50:04.159 --> 08:50:15.240
Noticing being aware of the comfort increased in the relaxation,

2752
08:50:17.400 --> 08:50:22.279
not just in your head and neck and mind, also

2753
08:50:22.759 --> 08:50:32.240
the rest of your body. Just notice how loose and

2754
08:50:32.560 --> 08:50:36.240
calm you feel, and how easily.

2755
08:50:37.959 --> 08:50:39.520
It is to just let go.

2756
08:50:42.319 --> 08:50:58.040
Completely let go completely how easily?

2757
08:51:05.880 --> 08:51:07.080
So I'm going to do now?

2758
08:51:07.319 --> 08:51:10.880
Is I wanted to focus on the top of your head?

2759
08:51:16.279 --> 08:51:22.919
And am I going to allow every last piece of

2760
08:51:23.159 --> 08:51:29.479
tension or stress that might be lingering or hiding in

2761
08:51:29.599 --> 08:51:33.360
your body or mind my head.

2762
08:51:34.680 --> 08:51:35.080
To just.

2763
08:51:36.799 --> 08:51:43.680
Be sucked out at the top of your head, released.

2764
08:51:46.919 --> 08:51:47.560
Into the air.

2765
08:51:48.680 --> 08:51:55.040
I'm sucked out into the clouds. Imagine to be cloud

2766
08:51:55.159 --> 08:52:00.439
above your head and it's like a whirlpool, and this

2767
08:52:00.840 --> 08:52:03.080
can suck that tension.

2768
08:52:04.240 --> 08:52:09.520
Now the top of your head and just take away.

2769
08:52:11.159 --> 08:52:11.759
The good.

2770
08:52:14.759 --> 08:52:18.080
Your focus. Imagine an opening.

2771
08:52:17.759 --> 08:52:21.919
On the top of your head with a tension.

2772
08:52:21.560 --> 08:52:26.439
And stress and in remaining issues may be worries of

2773
08:52:26.639 --> 08:52:29.159
concerns that have no use to you.

2774
08:52:29.319 --> 08:52:33.080
Now you can all be sucked down at the top

2775
08:52:33.159 --> 08:52:33.959
of your head.

2776
08:52:35.439 --> 08:52:41.400
And taken away. As I count down again from twenty

2777
08:52:41.799 --> 08:54:20.520
down to one now twenty nineteen, eighteen, seventeen, sixteen, fifteen, fourteen, thirteen, twelve, eleven, ten, nine, eight, seven, six.

2778
08:54:24.479 --> 08:54:45.400
Five, four, three, one.

2779
08:54:55.439 --> 08:55:11.560
Three, I'm noticing how you feel, how relaxed and calm

2780
08:55:13.560 --> 08:55:25.479
you physically and mentally feel right now, how peace or

2781
08:55:27.720 --> 08:55:33.680
your mind feels. It feels so nice to.

2782
08:55:33.919 --> 08:55:34.479
Just let go.

2783
08:55:36.720 --> 08:55:46.000
To give yourself some space to breathe easily, to think calmly,

2784
08:55:51.119 --> 08:55:56.240
just to take a break from all that pointless worry

2785
08:55:56.479 --> 08:56:01.720
and concerns about things that you don't need to think

2786
08:56:01.759 --> 08:56:09.200
about right now, because.

2787
08:56:10.479 --> 08:56:12.599
This is your time to let go.

2788
08:56:14.000 --> 08:56:23.759
This is your space to enjoy feeling deeply relaxed, peaceful

2789
08:56:23.880 --> 08:56:31.159
in your mind, relaxed in your body. They can feel

2790
08:56:31.720 --> 08:56:41.520
so good, so nice to just not have to do anything,

2791
08:56:43.840 --> 08:56:52.759
to be able to really enjoy that serenity that comes

2792
08:56:54.279 --> 08:57:07.360
of letting go completely, that peacefulness that comes with being

2793
08:57:08.040 --> 08:57:19.319
in this peaceful space. And you can keep this sense

2794
08:57:19.520 --> 08:57:22.279
of calmness for as long.

2795
08:57:22.080 --> 08:57:23.119
As you choose.

2796
08:57:31.159 --> 08:57:36.880
If you choose to drift off into a deep, healing,

2797
08:57:37.240 --> 08:57:46.000
natural sleep, then you can do that. It's completely up

2798
08:57:46.080 --> 08:57:53.959
to you, and you can keep this feeling of calmness

2799
08:57:54.959 --> 08:57:58.799
physically in your mind as long.

2800
08:57:58.959 --> 08:57:59.959
As you choose.

2801
08:58:01.319 --> 08:58:16.599
To feel completely relaxed, completely relax And I'd like you

2802
08:58:16.799 --> 08:58:22.599
to make up your mind that you're going to relax,

2803
08:58:31.200 --> 08:58:33.959
and I want to explore that with you. What it

2804
08:58:34.159 --> 08:58:41.479
feels like when you actually decide that you're going to relax,

2805
08:58:43.159 --> 08:58:49.759
not forcing yourself, but giving yourself that. Yes, it is

2806
08:58:49.840 --> 08:58:54.799
a command, really isn't it when you're telling yourself relax

2807
08:58:57.000 --> 08:58:59.720
in a gentle but firm way, that.

2808
08:59:01.119 --> 08:59:02.840
Only you can really.

2809
08:59:04.200 --> 08:59:07.279
Tell yourself that in that way. You can't really have

2810
08:59:07.400 --> 08:59:12.040
someone else saying to you, now it relax, relax, you know,

2811
08:59:13.040 --> 08:59:16.279
and it needs to be gentle, But you can't someone

2812
08:59:16.319 --> 08:59:23.319
else can't really have the same the same kind of

2813
08:59:23.959 --> 08:59:32.919
influence or power that you have over your own physicality,

2814
08:59:33.720 --> 08:59:43.400
over how you feel, because when you say it to yourself,

2815
08:59:44.680 --> 08:59:51.639
it means more. It's personal, and your brain and your

2816
08:59:52.080 --> 08:59:59.159
unconscious mind and your body listens to what you say. So,

2817
08:59:59.439 --> 09:00:02.560
for example, Paul, we'll test it out and do a

2818
09:00:02.599 --> 09:00:06.560
little test, a few little tests along the way, and

2819
09:00:06.680 --> 09:00:11.639
you can get more of an idea of the force,

2820
09:00:12.639 --> 09:00:19.319
the positive force that you can have in creating a

2821
09:00:19.479 --> 09:00:23.479
sense of comfort and relaxation in your body and your

2822
09:00:23.520 --> 09:00:32.880
mind quite quickly just by you telling yourself to relax.

2823
09:00:37.520 --> 09:00:41.119
So I'm going to start by let's focus on your hands.

2824
09:00:44.799 --> 09:00:46.959
To focus on your hands, and just tell your hands

2825
09:00:47.360 --> 09:00:53.319
to relax, and just say relax. As you focus on

2826
09:00:53.400 --> 09:01:00.360
your hands, you could say my hands are relaxed, or

2827
09:01:00.400 --> 09:01:04.560
I want my hands to relax. I think if you

2828
09:01:04.639 --> 09:01:11.479
actually do it, directly by focusing and imagining that your

2829
09:01:11.599 --> 09:01:14.599
hands can hear what you're saying.

2830
09:01:14.759 --> 09:01:17.759
You know, they've got little ears, you see a little weird.

2831
09:01:20.360 --> 09:01:31.279
So talking to your hands and just say relax, medicine.

2832
09:01:37.360 --> 09:01:52.479
Now your hands start to relax. Now, focus on your

2833
09:01:52.560 --> 09:01:56.680
eyes and tell your eyes to relax. You're just saying

2834
09:01:56.720 --> 09:02:03.840
the same word, relax. And find the right tone for you.

2835
09:02:06.400 --> 09:02:10.799
You know, I might say relax, but you you might

2836
09:02:10.919 --> 09:02:18.279
say relax or relax. You know, you might say it

2837
09:02:18.360 --> 09:02:26.000
differently to yourself, and that's important for you to gauge

2838
09:02:26.279 --> 09:02:31.599
what feels right for you. To just tell your eyes

2839
09:02:32.840 --> 09:02:37.040
to relax, whilst focusing on your eyes, your eyelids, the

2840
09:02:37.159 --> 09:02:42.639
muscles around your eyes, your eyebrows, and just tell your

2841
09:02:42.840 --> 09:03:17.560
eyes directly relax now. Now, I just did that myself.

2842
09:03:17.959 --> 09:03:27.759
And sometimes you may feel that you need a bit

2843
09:03:27.880 --> 09:03:33.599
more time or the different parts to relax, you know,

2844
09:03:33.720 --> 09:03:38.200
because I start talking again and maybe that part hasn't

2845
09:03:38.319 --> 09:03:41.360
relaxed fully. But what will happen is that it will

2846
09:03:41.439 --> 09:03:45.799
just continue to relax even though I'm talking, And that's

2847
09:03:45.880 --> 09:03:53.479
happening with my eyes. Something else I noticed is when

2848
09:03:53.520 --> 09:03:57.680
I started focusing on my eyes, that actually almost became,

2849
09:03:57.759 --> 09:03:59.919
they got worse before they got better in a way.

2850
09:04:00.680 --> 09:04:03.720
So I felt a degree of tension growing in my

2851
09:04:03.840 --> 09:04:09.799
eyes and then disappearing. So I think what that was

2852
09:04:09.919 --> 09:04:15.080
really is just me becoming more aware of the tension

2853
09:04:16.200 --> 09:04:20.479
that was already there that I wasn't. I wasn't focused

2854
09:04:20.520 --> 09:04:25.599
on it before, so I wasn't really acknowledging it or

2855
09:04:27.959 --> 09:04:43.240
really conscious to those feelings. Yeah, my eyes still continuing

2856
09:04:43.279 --> 09:04:49.799
to relax, as well as my hands. Actually, my hands

2857
09:04:49.840 --> 09:04:56.000
have got a certain kind of energy, like not buzzing, but.

2858
09:04:56.319 --> 09:04:57.000
I can kind of.

2859
09:04:59.360 --> 09:05:05.599
Feel with energy in my hands. Maybe that's where the

2860
09:05:05.720 --> 09:05:18.200
tension is being released. Maybe that's causing that. The next part,

2861
09:05:18.319 --> 09:05:20.479
I think we should focus on the back of the neck.

2862
09:05:21.159 --> 09:05:26.360
That's a part which quite often, well for me, holds tension.

2863
09:05:26.400 --> 09:05:29.040
I don't know about it for yourself that I think

2864
09:05:29.080 --> 09:05:35.639
it's quite a standard place where tension is sometimes held. So,

2865
09:05:37.759 --> 09:05:40.880
and I'm doing exactly what you're doing as you do

2866
09:05:41.000 --> 09:05:44.639
it as well, so I'm telling my body parts.

2867
09:05:44.520 --> 09:05:47.400
To relax as well. So if you tell your neck

2868
09:05:47.520 --> 09:05:48.479
at the back of your.

2869
09:05:48.439 --> 09:05:51.040
Neck, focus on the back of your neck and just

2870
09:05:51.159 --> 09:05:58.360
say relax in your own words, in your own tone,

2871
09:05:58.720 --> 09:06:01.520
in your own voice. You can say out loud, or

2872
09:06:01.599 --> 09:06:06.000
you can just say it to yourself internally, but you're

2873
09:06:06.119 --> 09:06:10.599
focusing it, and you're saying it literally to the back of.

2874
09:06:10.599 --> 09:06:13.319
Your neck, as if the back of your neck you

2875
09:06:13.400 --> 09:06:20.040
can actually hear what you're saying. As I do that, now,

2876
09:06:20.239 --> 09:06:23.319
just say it relax so the back of your neck

2877
09:06:24.440 --> 09:06:25.319
and I'll do the say.

2878
09:07:04.160 --> 09:07:04.279
Now.

2879
09:07:04.360 --> 09:07:07.919
What I noticed and you may have had similar thing

2880
09:07:09.400 --> 09:07:12.319
is even though I was focusing on the back of

2881
09:07:12.400 --> 09:07:23.839
my neck, other parts started to I don't know, showed

2882
09:07:23.879 --> 09:07:27.040
themselves to me, or maybe because they want to be

2883
09:07:27.120 --> 09:07:30.959
relaxed as well. But I started noticing the feelings in

2884
09:07:31.080 --> 09:07:34.959
my shoulders, attention in my shoulders and in my upper back.

2885
09:07:38.080 --> 09:07:44.080
Whether that was because my back of my neck was saying, well,

2886
09:07:44.080 --> 09:07:45.120
I'm pretty much okay.

2887
09:07:46.720 --> 09:07:47.760
It's the other.

2888
09:07:47.760 --> 09:07:57.040
Parts that need attention, but my lobe, my back of

2889
09:07:57.120 --> 09:08:01.360
my neck is still relaxing. I just became more aware

2890
09:08:01.440 --> 09:08:08.080
of other parts that needed attention. Now, this might happen,

2891
09:08:08.199 --> 09:08:13.120
and it's not. It doesn't mean that it's going wrong.

2892
09:08:13.239 --> 09:08:19.760
It just means you're being notified of more places but.

2893
09:08:19.919 --> 09:08:21.599
Also want to feel relaxed.

2894
09:08:24.839 --> 09:08:29.199
So I'm going to focus on my upper back, So

2895
09:08:29.440 --> 09:08:30.559
you can do the same.

2896
09:08:32.120 --> 09:08:33.639
Even if you don't have any.

2897
09:08:35.040 --> 09:08:40.519
Feelings of tension that obvious in your upper back. You

2898
09:08:40.720 --> 09:08:45.680
just focus on your back and the whole area from

2899
09:08:45.760 --> 09:08:50.319
the shoulder blades down to the middle of your back

2900
09:08:50.760 --> 09:08:55.680
and the spine. And with me, it's more the shoulder blades.

2901
09:08:55.400 --> 09:09:06.199
Than yeah, that's the parts they're really sort of giving me.

2902
09:09:07.919 --> 09:09:08.279
That not.

2903
09:09:10.199 --> 09:09:12.639
That it needs relax in the sounds, Gonna ask that

2904
09:09:12.800 --> 09:09:15.839
part to relax, and you can do the same.

2905
09:09:15.959 --> 09:09:43.239
Now relapse out the back. Something strange happened there. And

2906
09:09:43.400 --> 09:09:50.199
this often happens, and I'm doing this for over sixteen

2907
09:09:50.360 --> 09:09:58.360
years or something, and often I'm want surprised, amazed, really bad.

2908
09:10:00.639 --> 09:10:04.959
There can be a feeling. So when I was focusing

2909
09:10:05.040 --> 09:10:07.919
on the back of my neck, my upper back was

2910
09:10:08.800 --> 09:10:13.040
starting to feel quite stressed and in need of attention.

2911
09:10:15.440 --> 09:10:18.519
As soon as I started talking to you about my

2912
09:10:18.680 --> 09:10:23.599
upper back and talking about, you know, getting ready to

2913
09:10:23.919 --> 09:10:28.680
ask the upper back to relax, why the back already

2914
09:10:28.800 --> 09:10:34.519
started to relax. It's almost as if it doesn't need

2915
09:10:34.720 --> 09:10:44.680
to hear the words, just needs attention, just needs to

2916
09:10:44.760 --> 09:10:57.199
be noticed. And that is something that often happens in

2917
09:10:58.120 --> 09:11:04.360
this type of situation. Situation is when you start to

2918
09:11:04.519 --> 09:11:09.559
relax a couple of parts of your body, as we've

2919
09:11:09.639 --> 09:11:15.800
done with our hands, the eyes and eyelids, and.

2920
09:11:16.040 --> 09:11:25.440
Now back of the neck, top of the bag, the bag.

2921
09:11:26.519 --> 09:11:30.480
The rest of the body seems to just take notice

2922
09:11:33.239 --> 09:11:39.480
and decide in its own way to start relaxing.

2923
09:11:41.319 --> 09:11:42.959
Other parts of your body.

2924
09:11:43.360 --> 09:11:52.800
Start to just become looser. I suppose it's kind of

2925
09:11:52.919 --> 09:11:56.639
like a bit of an avalanche. You know, the little

2926
09:11:56.680 --> 09:11:59.959
ball starts rolling, and before you know it, the whole

2927
09:12:00.160 --> 09:12:12.080
of your body is completely relaxed and you can't And

2928
09:12:12.199 --> 09:12:20.199
if you focus on your face, you focus on your eyes,

2929
09:12:22.639 --> 09:12:28.919
the eyelids, your eyebrowns, and the muscles around your eyes,

2930
09:12:33.720 --> 09:12:38.360
and maybe you start to notice that your forehead is

2931
09:12:38.480 --> 09:12:43.760
more relaxed than it was. Maybe your face is more relaxed.

2932
09:12:46.480 --> 09:12:50.239
I would say, my entire face is a lot more

2933
09:12:50.319 --> 09:13:03.959
relaxed than it was. So you're going to focus now

2934
09:13:04.199 --> 09:13:12.040
on your shoulders again, just like before. Just tell your shoulders.

2935
09:13:12.760 --> 09:13:15.040
I mean, you can't do them in the digity. You

2936
09:13:15.080 --> 09:13:17.519
can do the right shoulder and the shoulder.

2937
09:13:18.680 --> 09:13:20.839
I just can't do both at the same time.

2938
09:13:22.599 --> 09:13:26.040
I Just tell your shoulders as you focus on them

2939
09:13:26.080 --> 09:13:32.040
in your mind, focus on how you feel. Maybe you

2940
09:13:32.160 --> 09:13:38.800
can see them in your mind's eye. Just tell your

2941
09:13:38.879 --> 09:14:33.440
shoulders to relax as nice as they relax. But I

2942
09:14:33.599 --> 09:14:41.680
did notice, I mean, especially with my back, is the

2943
09:14:41.879 --> 09:14:47.680
connection between the different parts the back, the shoulders, the

2944
09:14:47.919 --> 09:14:58.000
neck being all connected and being such a large part

2945
09:14:58.080 --> 09:15:04.080
of your body, it's almost hard to separate them from

2946
09:15:04.120 --> 09:15:12.599
each other. And my luwer back has started to relax.

2947
09:15:12.239 --> 09:15:12.839
On the saone.

2948
09:15:19.000 --> 09:15:23.720
Maybe I'm going too slow, and that could be an

2949
09:15:23.760 --> 09:15:31.199
issue because we all go at different speeds. And the

2950
09:15:31.360 --> 09:15:34.279
idea at the beginning of this recording was for you

2951
09:15:34.440 --> 09:15:49.319
to be able to just say to yourself, relax without

2952
09:15:49.480 --> 09:15:55.760
focusing on any particular part of your body. Because when

2953
09:15:55.800 --> 09:16:05.639
you know that turning your hands to relax and your

2954
09:16:05.800 --> 09:16:14.519
hands relaxed, you tell your eyelids and your eyes, the

2955
09:16:14.720 --> 09:16:24.879
muscles around your eyes and your eyebrows to relax, that

2956
09:16:25.000 --> 09:16:25.680
they relax.

2957
09:16:31.440 --> 09:16:38.279
You tell the back of your neck to relax.

2958
09:16:42.559 --> 09:17:11.720
And it relaxes. You tell your alpa back relacs and theeraxis.

2959
09:17:19.400 --> 09:17:34.839
I tell you you shoulders to relax if they relax,

2960
09:17:58.319 --> 09:18:02.599
and you teld your hands through they relaxed, and they

2961
09:18:02.720 --> 09:18:16.360
continued to relax, and you told your eyelids, the muscles

2962
09:18:16.360 --> 09:18:23.760
around your eyes, your eyebrows, to relax. They relaxed.

2963
09:18:26.839 --> 09:18:37.760
And continued to relax. And you told at the back

2964
09:18:37.800 --> 09:18:40.879
of your neck. Broke this on the back of your

2965
09:18:40.959 --> 09:18:46.279
neck and told it to relax.

2966
09:18:50.639 --> 09:18:51.879
They relaxed.

2967
09:18:53.720 --> 09:18:55.400
And continued.

2968
09:18:56.199 --> 09:19:11.239
To relax. And you told your alco back to relax,

2969
09:19:13.239 --> 09:19:16.000
be relaxed and continued.

2970
09:19:18.000 --> 09:19:18.639
To relax.

2971
09:19:26.959 --> 09:19:32.519
That's with your shoulders. You told your shoulders to relax.

2972
09:19:32.879 --> 09:19:45.199
In your shoulders relaxed and continued to relax.

2973
09:19:50.879 --> 09:19:55.800
And it's not just that, it's.

2974
09:19:58.480 --> 09:20:02.919
With the rest of your body. It's also been listening

2975
09:20:04.559 --> 09:20:10.680
and their relaxation has been spreading. So from your eyes,

2976
09:20:11.040 --> 09:20:18.440
the relaxation spread to your forehead, around your face, into

2977
09:20:18.559 --> 09:20:31.760
your skin, into your jaw, into the front of the

2978
09:20:32.000 --> 09:20:36.239
sides of the neck, all the way down your chest

2979
09:20:36.559 --> 09:20:46.839
and stomach, your relaxed hands and shoulders.

2980
09:20:48.160 --> 09:20:55.919
And me up through your arms, relaxing the forearms, your

2981
09:20:56.720 --> 09:21:12.680
upper arms, elbows, your wrists, lett you know, did lower back.

2982
09:21:16.120 --> 09:21:20.000
Hicks staticsplin.

2983
09:21:20.160 --> 09:21:29.279
And just start to relax. I continue and comfort spreading

2984
09:21:29.440 --> 09:21:38.239
through your legs all the way down to your ankles,

2985
09:21:43.440 --> 09:21:47.440
the tops of your feet, the side of your feet,

2986
09:21:49.319 --> 09:21:59.760
the bottoms of your feet, re lexing into your to

2987
09:22:00.239 --> 09:22:06.440
is each term relaxing.

2988
09:22:13.919 --> 09:22:37.599
Is, and if your body relaxes warm, your mind becomes slower,

2989
09:22:43.239 --> 09:22:52.800
more peaceful, to the point.

2990
09:22:53.000 --> 09:23:07.959
Where if you choose to fall asleep easily do that

2991
09:23:13.599 --> 09:23:23.680
easy to really doing because there's nothing going on in

2992
09:23:23.760 --> 09:23:24.239
your life.

2993
09:23:28.160 --> 09:23:30.639
Praise spaceful.

2994
09:23:38.440 --> 09:24:12.120
Boy to tease right with that connection between.

2995
09:24:11.959 --> 09:24:20.760
Your body relaxing, the word you say to yourself relax

2996
09:24:27.239 --> 09:24:32.720
means that you don't need to focus on just one part.

2997
09:24:34.519 --> 09:24:46.440
You can just focus on your entire body, saying.

2998
09:24:46.599 --> 09:24:48.239
The powerful word.

2999
09:24:52.400 --> 09:25:03.000
Laks and there.

3000
09:25:05.160 --> 09:25:18.279
Goes the men air, sensations of comfort spreading throughout your body,

3001
09:25:23.680 --> 09:25:26.000
lusing and calming.

3002
09:25:28.000 --> 09:25:35.279
And the heathing every power to your body.

3003
09:25:37.959 --> 09:25:40.279
Deathing m.

3004
09:25:43.680 --> 09:26:02.040
Relaxed, and all you need to do from now on

3005
09:26:02.680 --> 09:26:09.720
just tell yourself, yes.

3006
09:26:14.959 --> 09:26:15.440
That's.

3007
09:26:21.080 --> 09:26:23.480
Eating beating.

3008
09:26:24.680 --> 09:26:24.879
Now.

3009
09:26:38.760 --> 09:26:45.919
So starting now with number twenty.

3010
09:26:52.919 --> 09:27:03.319
Nineteen, I think.

3011
09:27:13.760 --> 09:29:14.599
Seven six six fo, yes, you will.

3012
09:30:00.279 --> 09:36:50.440
Attatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatt o O y attatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatata.

3013
09:37:44.559 --> 09:40:49.120
What one seven camps down?

3014
09:40:49.239 --> 09:40:50.360
Pretend to one.

3015
09:40:52.160 --> 09:41:04.959
Two nine, eight, seven, six, five.

3016
09:41:07.000 --> 09:41:10.720
Four three.

3017
09:41:13.360 --> 09:41:16.440
Two one.

3018
09:41:23.519 --> 09:41:26.400
And maybe that was a bit too quick in order

3019
09:41:26.519 --> 09:41:30.800
to relax, And it's look too fast for you to

3020
09:41:32.120 --> 09:41:40.760
notice the calming of your body, maybe even a little

3021
09:41:40.800 --> 09:41:44.279
bit of pressure there, like you're counting down.

3022
09:41:44.120 --> 09:41:45.040
From ten to one.

3023
09:41:45.160 --> 09:41:48.559
Would you expect me to do man, expect me to

3024
09:41:48.559 --> 09:41:52.559
just to go with the floe just because you're counting down.

3025
09:41:58.279 --> 09:42:01.680
You try it again, but this time I'll go this

3026
09:42:01.959 --> 09:42:09.120
love this time, and you focus on the whole of

3027
09:42:09.199 --> 09:42:16.400
your body before we focus on legs. Just notice.

3028
09:42:17.599 --> 09:42:18.959
How your body does.

3029
09:42:20.440 --> 09:42:25.959
Start to feel more relaxed.

3030
09:42:31.639 --> 09:42:34.440
Every number that I count down.

3031
09:42:37.720 --> 09:44:07.000
Ten nine, at, eight, seven, six, one, four three one,

3032
09:44:18.519 --> 09:44:24.959
I just notice how how you feel, generally, anybody feels.

3033
09:44:31.559 --> 09:44:39.919
It isn't necessarily even about counting down from ten to one.

3034
09:44:43.000 --> 09:44:50.919
Is that space that you have, that space between.

3035
09:44:56.000 --> 09:45:00.480
Being did.

3036
09:45:02.639 --> 09:45:12.160
Physically or mentally, it's just sitting and riding down, just

3037
09:45:12.400 --> 09:45:18.279
being there, not doing anything, not saying anything, not needing

3038
09:45:18.559 --> 09:45:24.000
to think about anything. So it was bilding up of space.

3039
09:45:25.000 --> 09:45:36.760
You know the space, the gap. And the more I count.

3040
09:45:36.559 --> 09:45:41.080
Down from things to morrow, the bigger that gap becomes.

3041
09:45:44.120 --> 09:45:50.480
Sores that gap of comes the comfort and relaxation.

3042
09:45:56.440 --> 09:46:04.120
It's a nice feeling. Can it moves.

3043
09:46:05.519 --> 09:46:11.160
Those stresses or discomforts.

3044
09:46:10.360 --> 09:46:13.559
Physically or emotionally, moves them.

3045
09:46:15.040 --> 09:46:15.720
A way.

3046
09:46:22.239 --> 09:46:23.239
Allows you.

3047
09:46:25.879 --> 09:46:26.440
To just.

3048
09:46:29.400 --> 09:46:35.680
Slow down someone to count the game and tend them

3049
09:46:35.760 --> 09:46:36.199
to work.

3050
09:46:36.559 --> 09:46:41.639
And notice that gap widely.

3051
09:46:43.440 --> 09:46:47.879
Again, and it is wide. It's almost like the.

3052
09:46:49.639 --> 09:46:52.559
Stress or attention falls.

3053
09:46:52.440 --> 09:47:32.120
Into the gap. You have distance and space nine five

3054
09:47:37.879 --> 09:47:49.919
six six.

3055
09:48:02.440 --> 09:48:14.360
One four.

3056
09:49:07.599 --> 09:49:07.760
Mm.

3057
09:49:19.879 --> 09:49:23.400
That is you, ok, you.

3058
09:49:25.680 --> 09:49:25.959
M h.

09:49:38.760 --> 09:49:39.519
Come this.
