00:00:00.840 --> 00:00:09.160
Hello, and welcome to Jasonnewland dot com. My name's Jason Newland,

2
00:00:09.279 --> 00:00:13.640
and this is let me bore you to sleep. Today

3
00:00:15.480 --> 00:00:21.239
is Monday, the twenty sixth of May two thousand and

4
00:00:22.199 --> 00:00:30.879
twenty five. It's six point fifty five peb ooh, it's

5
00:00:31.000 --> 00:00:36.039
Monday's boring objects and today I am going to discuss

6
00:00:36.880 --> 00:00:47.359
dog walking. Oh yes, exciting? Did I say? Oh? Only

7
00:00:47.439 --> 00:00:51.119
listen and you can safely close your eyes. I'm not

8
00:00:51.159 --> 00:00:52.759
sure if I said that or not. I don't think

9
00:00:52.759 --> 00:00:57.600
I did what I have now anyway, check out my website,

10
00:00:57.600 --> 00:01:00.399
which is groovy. I'm just going to shut the top

11
00:01:00.479 --> 00:01:07.040
up my website. All the recordings are on there. There's playlists,

12
00:01:07.239 --> 00:01:13.319
there's podcasts, there's links to the different apps that my

13
00:01:13.400 --> 00:01:18.760
podcasts are on. There's a way to contact me whatever.

14
00:01:18.920 --> 00:01:21.560
Lots of different things on there. There's also a link

15
00:01:21.640 --> 00:01:25.120
to my Facebook group, which is Jason Newland's Boring Group.

16
00:01:26.079 --> 00:01:28.519
There's a link to my YouTube channel which is at

17
00:01:28.599 --> 00:01:32.319
Jason Newland, which is now my podcast on YouTube. So

18
00:01:32.400 --> 00:01:36.680
exactly the same recordings as you get on Spotify or

19
00:01:36.840 --> 00:01:40.959
Apple or cast box or wherever. It's all on YouTube

20
00:01:41.000 --> 00:01:45.280
now as well, including the ten hour ones with music.

21
00:01:46.040 --> 00:01:50.359
You know, all this all version or six versions I've

22
00:01:50.359 --> 00:01:53.040
got with a chroaky voice. I had a one day

23
00:01:53.079 --> 00:02:01.239
cold yesterday, which is weird. I still it's like a

24
00:02:02.480 --> 00:02:07.439
I think it's a weather change in reaction. It has

25
00:02:07.480 --> 00:02:13.080
gone from being warm to being cold to being damp.

26
00:02:14.319 --> 00:02:16.719
So the last couple of days it's been very damp

27
00:02:16.800 --> 00:02:24.840
and very damp, I guess that's another word to explain

28
00:02:24.919 --> 00:02:33.919
it really rainy instead of being dry. So yeah, a

29
00:02:33.960 --> 00:02:37.080
little bit under the weather the last couple of days,

30
00:02:38.039 --> 00:02:41.639
but feeling all right generally. Just keep coughing a little

31
00:02:41.680 --> 00:02:46.479
bit and then my voice is fine. Just takes a

32
00:02:46.520 --> 00:02:56.719
little bit of lubrication. That's weird, isn't it. So I'm

33
00:02:56.719 --> 00:03:02.879
going to start off. I've walked dogs for years and

34
00:03:03.120 --> 00:03:07.039
the first time I walked the dog, I was fourteen

35
00:03:08.719 --> 00:03:17.000
and it was misty. The what was it Saint Bernard

36
00:03:17.360 --> 00:03:21.280
or you may call it a Saint Bernard. You may

37
00:03:21.400 --> 00:03:24.080
wrongly call it a Saint Bernard. It's a Saint Bernard,

38
00:03:26.879 --> 00:03:31.360
a huge dog. So there's been that one. There's been

39
00:03:32.879 --> 00:03:39.639
my other friend's dog who I lived with. There was

40
00:03:40.479 --> 00:03:44.719
my cousin's dog that I lived with. That was my

41
00:03:44.759 --> 00:03:46.400
other friend's dog I lived with. Then there was the

42
00:03:46.400 --> 00:03:49.159
other friend that friend's dog I lived with, and then

43
00:03:49.199 --> 00:03:55.599
it was Vinny, but also Logi downstairs. I was gonna

44
00:03:55.599 --> 00:03:57.479
say I never lived with Logi, but I did, didn't

45
00:03:57.520 --> 00:04:01.599
I for two months, but I used to see him

46
00:04:01.719 --> 00:04:05.960
very regularly for I don't know, six years, however long,

47
00:04:06.560 --> 00:04:10.719
however long he was living downstairs, started to take him

48
00:04:10.719 --> 00:04:16.000
for walks and spend a lot of time with him.

49
00:04:16.240 --> 00:04:21.319
Lovely dog, really lovely. Apart from with other dogs. It's

50
00:04:21.360 --> 00:04:27.839
the most gentle dog. Just ridiculous, how gentle and floppy

51
00:04:28.160 --> 00:04:37.240
and soppy he was with humans. But with other dogs, Nope,

52
00:04:38.560 --> 00:04:42.480
apart from one dog, Vinny, Vinny was the only dog

53
00:04:42.519 --> 00:04:46.160
that he liked. Not totally true. There was a couple

54
00:04:46.199 --> 00:04:49.279
of I think he did. He had a girlfriend another

55
00:04:49.319 --> 00:04:51.199
dog that was similar to him, who get on with

56
00:04:52.199 --> 00:05:02.839
but generally did not like other dogs. Loved Vinnie Strange

57
00:05:03.839 --> 00:05:10.319
I say, I mean he did Vinnie once. Vinnie and

58
00:05:10.399 --> 00:05:17.079
him lived together up here for pretty much December. I

59
00:05:17.079 --> 00:05:25.560
think it might have been three months, December, January, February.

60
00:05:25.639 --> 00:05:28.120
It's either the end of January or the end of February,

61
00:05:28.360 --> 00:05:30.399
so it's either two or three months I had him

62
00:05:30.480 --> 00:05:36.720
living here, them two together, and they started fighting. They

63
00:05:36.759 --> 00:05:39.959
started arguing with each other, and I think a lot

64
00:05:40.000 --> 00:05:47.160
of it was Vinnie trying to boss him around. I mean,

65
00:05:47.360 --> 00:05:52.480
Vinnie could have comfortably fitted inside his mouth and gone

66
00:05:52.560 --> 00:05:57.920
to sleep. You know. The size difference was ridiculous. He

67
00:05:58.360 --> 00:06:03.839
really looked like a Gerbil next to me. So I

68
00:06:03.839 --> 00:06:08.000
don't know why. I guess this is Vinnie's home. But

69
00:06:08.079 --> 00:06:11.120
before that, he used to love Vinnie's to love him.

70
00:06:11.600 --> 00:06:13.759
I'm sure he still loves him, but he just used

71
00:06:13.800 --> 00:06:16.800
to absolutely adore him and gets so excited to see

72
00:06:16.839 --> 00:06:20.439
him and try and get into that flat every time

73
00:06:20.439 --> 00:06:22.079
he went downstairs to try and get in there to

74
00:06:22.079 --> 00:06:26.120
see Logi, and Logu tries to get up here to

75
00:06:26.160 --> 00:06:37.879
see Vinnie. And then it's weird, actually, because about a

76
00:06:37.920 --> 00:06:44.360
couple of months before my friend left, I say a

77
00:06:44.399 --> 00:06:49.560
couple of months maybe a few months, but Logi went missing.

78
00:06:52.279 --> 00:06:55.279
He just escaped and he run off and he was

79
00:06:55.319 --> 00:07:02.279
gone for about two weeks. That whole time, Vinnie was

80
00:07:02.319 --> 00:07:05.399
pining for him. He was sitting at the front door

81
00:07:05.920 --> 00:07:12.240
just waiting, like really kind of pining, which was weird.

82
00:07:15.279 --> 00:07:18.759
But after living here, I mean he did he got

83
00:07:18.759 --> 00:07:21.439
found at a hostel place or whatever and got brought

84
00:07:21.480 --> 00:07:26.439
back a rescue place. But when we after living together

85
00:07:26.519 --> 00:07:30.839
for a couple of months or three months, and Logi

86
00:07:31.000 --> 00:07:35.319
went and fact got his new home, Vinny didn't seem

87
00:07:35.360 --> 00:07:41.240
that bothered. It's weird. It seemed he wasn't celebrating. I mean,

88
00:07:41.319 --> 00:07:46.519
he wasn't like popping off streamers or anything, or dancing,

89
00:07:46.639 --> 00:07:50.600
but he was definitely that he seemed to be happy

90
00:07:50.600 --> 00:07:56.040
to have his home back. Well, what surprised me is

91
00:07:56.879 --> 00:08:02.959
I felt sad at the time. I couldn't really understand it.

92
00:08:03.040 --> 00:08:05.160
I suppose I understand it now because that was the

93
00:08:06.040 --> 00:08:09.720
last that was part of my friend, wasn't it. I'd

94
00:08:09.759 --> 00:08:12.959
lost him, But I didn't, So I didn't really connect

95
00:08:13.040 --> 00:08:16.040
him with Logi, even though there's an obvious connection. It

96
00:08:16.199 --> 00:08:23.279
was his dog. So once he was gone, all everything

97
00:08:23.360 --> 00:08:28.120
connected to my friend was pretty much gone, apart from

98
00:08:28.240 --> 00:08:30.720
the occasional contact with his dad. That's kind of it.

99
00:08:32.000 --> 00:08:35.360
So yeah, so I was piling. I'm the one that

100
00:08:35.440 --> 00:08:39.519
was sitting at the front door on the floor piling.

101
00:08:41.159 --> 00:08:42.840
Vinnie was in there thinking, oh, what are we going

102
00:08:42.879 --> 00:08:45.960
to do about him? I need to distract him, maybe

103
00:08:45.960 --> 00:08:52.200
if I get him some bones. Anyway, So dog's walking.

104
00:08:52.759 --> 00:08:55.559
I thought I talk about dog walking because I actually

105
00:08:55.559 --> 00:09:00.919
forgot it was Monday today because there's a bank holiday Monday.

106
00:09:02.279 --> 00:09:07.360
It really really feels like a Sunday. That really feels

107
00:09:07.399 --> 00:09:13.039
like a Sunday in a sense of I've known its

108
00:09:13.080 --> 00:09:17.919
bank holiday right from the beginning of the day or

109
00:09:17.960 --> 00:09:20.840
before eveyone went to bed last night, and it still

110
00:09:20.960 --> 00:09:25.159
felt like a Sunday. Quite often, a bank holiday feels

111
00:09:25.200 --> 00:09:28.799
just like a Monday. It's like just another day. I

112
00:09:28.879 --> 00:09:38.120
don't know why it felt like a Sunday. Thinking about it,

113
00:09:38.159 --> 00:09:42.399
I was thinking if last night as being Saturday, that

114
00:09:42.639 --> 00:09:44.679
probably explains it as well, because I was thinking about

115
00:09:44.720 --> 00:09:47.000
what I did last night. Well, last night I watched

116
00:09:47.000 --> 00:09:50.720
the Boxing. No, I didn't. That was Saturday night. Last night.

117
00:09:51.919 --> 00:09:54.399
I forgot no idea what I did. I went to

118
00:09:54.440 --> 00:10:06.480
bed early pretty much. Yeah, so it's felt like a Sunday.

119
00:10:06.559 --> 00:10:08.120
But it's not. I mean, it's not a bad thing.

120
00:10:08.159 --> 00:10:10.679
I mean, I don't. I've got no issue with Sundays.

121
00:10:10.480 --> 00:10:14.519
It's a relaxing day. Some would argue all days are

122
00:10:14.519 --> 00:10:17.279
relaxing days for me, but you know, I like to

123
00:10:17.320 --> 00:10:22.440
think that I'm doing something with my time. Today. I

124
00:10:22.480 --> 00:10:28.559
actually found a way to stream my so I've got

125
00:10:28.679 --> 00:10:32.679
Kindle on my phone, so I opened it up and

126
00:10:32.720 --> 00:10:36.679
I found a way to play a book speaking out

127
00:10:36.720 --> 00:10:42.759
loud to me. But not only that, I mood it

128
00:10:42.840 --> 00:10:46.120
onto the TV so I could read along at the

129
00:10:46.120 --> 00:10:49.519
same time. So the voice is a you know, it's

130
00:10:49.600 --> 00:10:54.480
very robotic, so it's not like a decent voice, but

131
00:10:54.720 --> 00:10:57.720
reading it, and because the screen's big on the TV,

132
00:10:58.679 --> 00:11:01.720
I could read it much EASi you're than reading a book.

133
00:11:01.960 --> 00:11:05.759
I just can't just prints too small now for books

134
00:11:05.799 --> 00:11:09.200
for me until I get my eyes tested and get

135
00:11:09.200 --> 00:11:10.559
them get better glasses.

136
00:11:12.200 --> 00:11:14.000
So the.

137
00:11:16.480 --> 00:11:20.000
I think I spent about three hours reading a book,

138
00:11:21.240 --> 00:11:23.559
and occasionally I kind of closed my eyes and just

139
00:11:23.600 --> 00:11:26.080
listen to it. Then I go back and read it.

140
00:11:27.799 --> 00:11:29.960
And it's a book I've read before. It's a book

141
00:11:29.960 --> 00:11:33.360
I've already got on the shelf as well. But I

142
00:11:33.399 --> 00:11:40.080
also purchased it on Kindle about eleven years ago. It's

143
00:11:40.159 --> 00:11:45.200
a long time ago. And eleven years from now, what

144
00:11:45.279 --> 00:11:55.080
will I be. I will be sixty five. I'll be

145
00:11:55.200 --> 00:12:03.440
sixty five. I'll be two years off of retire. Wow,

146
00:12:04.879 --> 00:12:09.519
eleven years so thirteen years away fourteen fifty six seven,

147
00:12:09.639 --> 00:12:18.159
I'll be nearing retirement age. No, no, even less. So

148
00:12:18.240 --> 00:12:22.440
when I'm sixty five. I'll be fifty five in August,

149
00:12:23.440 --> 00:12:29.279
so twelve years from August I will be retired.

150
00:12:30.240 --> 00:12:33.960
I'll be retired age.

151
00:12:34.360 --> 00:12:40.399
Wow. I'll be thinking. And this isn't really related to

152
00:12:40.480 --> 00:12:44.399
dog walking, and probably most of the things I talk

153
00:12:44.440 --> 00:12:47.039
about during this recording will also not be related to

154
00:12:47.039 --> 00:12:52.039
dog walking. For some reason, but I started to have

155
00:12:52.080 --> 00:12:59.440
a little, a little feeling towards maybe it would be

156
00:12:59.519 --> 00:13:03.200
nice to have to be in a relationship, to have

157
00:13:03.240 --> 00:13:06.799
a girlfriend. I know, a girlfriend might not be the

158
00:13:06.840 --> 00:13:10.320
right term anymore. Partners probably the best, probably the correct

159
00:13:10.399 --> 00:13:18.240
term now, I don't know, but relationship, I'm just thinking maybe.

160
00:13:19.480 --> 00:13:25.000
And I kind of started to notice women a bit

161
00:13:25.039 --> 00:13:31.720
more just I don't know, I've not really had much

162
00:13:31.759 --> 00:13:35.720
interest in women for ages, not really, not really kind

163
00:13:35.759 --> 00:13:37.320
of just.

164
00:13:38.559 --> 00:13:38.919
I don't know.

165
00:13:38.919 --> 00:13:45.759
Maybe it's the summer. Maybe maybe the sun's ignited some

166
00:13:45.879 --> 00:13:48.080
kind of testosterone in me.

167
00:13:48.480 --> 00:13:48.960
I don't know.

168
00:13:50.120 --> 00:13:53.639
Maybe maybe one of my hormones has regrown, because I

169
00:13:53.639 --> 00:13:58.840
think most of my hormones had gone, but maybe one's resurfaced.

170
00:13:59.639 --> 00:14:08.639
And I'm starting to I don't know, it's different. It's

171
00:14:08.679 --> 00:14:13.399
no desperation. I've been desperate in the past. Blimey, it's

172
00:14:13.440 --> 00:14:15.519
a long time ago. But I used to be like

173
00:14:15.679 --> 00:14:22.120
really like a pening dog, like really just I don't

174
00:14:22.159 --> 00:14:23.879
know why I did that impression of a pening dog.

175
00:14:24.240 --> 00:14:26.120
We all know what a dog sounds like when it pens.

176
00:14:27.159 --> 00:14:29.120
I don't know why I did that. I wasn't literally

177
00:14:29.120 --> 00:14:34.440
walking around and going, what's your name, I'm Jason. It

178
00:14:34.559 --> 00:14:38.120
wasn't quite that bad. It wasn't much better than that, though,

179
00:14:39.639 --> 00:14:41.840
never any good at chat uplines. I just thought it

180
00:14:41.960 --> 00:14:44.200
was silly, you know.

181
00:14:44.360 --> 00:14:44.919
It's just.

182
00:14:46.679 --> 00:14:48.840
Thought, well, if you make someone laugh. They were like,

183
00:14:48.919 --> 00:14:52.519
you never found that to be the case. It's like,

184
00:14:52.559 --> 00:14:56.399
it makes someone laugh, then you're in the friend zone.

185
00:14:56.840 --> 00:15:00.720
It's like instantly it's easy to be the friend zone.

186
00:15:01.360 --> 00:15:10.639
But loads of female friends. Yeah. Anyway, So I've just

187
00:15:10.759 --> 00:15:17.399
been thinking about that, and I just noticed that I'm

188
00:15:17.440 --> 00:15:22.159
starting to maybe I don't know if I'm getting older

189
00:15:22.240 --> 00:15:31.799
and wrinklier and all those things that are starting to think, hmm,

190
00:15:32.039 --> 00:15:33.519
you know, I know there's going to come a time

191
00:15:33.519 --> 00:15:34.879
when I look in the mirror and I will not

192
00:15:34.919 --> 00:15:40.159
recognize myself. Or there was going to come a time

193
00:15:40.159 --> 00:15:43.840
when I don't even look in the mirror anymore. And

194
00:15:45.320 --> 00:15:49.679
you know, I don't know. I'm not sure that will happen,

195
00:15:49.720 --> 00:15:53.399
but I guess that possibly will happen. I've seen many

196
00:15:53.480 --> 00:15:57.000
people that seem to be in that situation where they

197
00:15:57.120 --> 00:15:59.879
just I don't want to be I want to kind

198
00:15:59.919 --> 00:16:05.480
of there's not much to work with, but I'd kind

199
00:16:05.480 --> 00:16:08.559
of do my best with what there is, you know,

200
00:16:08.919 --> 00:16:09.399
try and.

201
00:16:13.440 --> 00:16:14.120
Should I die?

202
00:16:14.320 --> 00:16:17.559
Should I die my not my pubes, my beard? Should

203
00:16:17.559 --> 00:16:23.120
I dye my beard? So dye it gray? That'd be weird,

204
00:16:23.159 --> 00:16:26.559
wouldn't it? What weird thing to do? Because then someone

205
00:16:26.559 --> 00:16:31.360
could maybe I ask someone out and I think no

206
00:16:31.720 --> 00:16:34.360
because you're too old, and I say, no, I'm not,

207
00:16:36.159 --> 00:16:39.879
and I can just wipe it off, say look, I'm

208
00:16:39.879 --> 00:16:44.759
only partially gray. But then I don't know, yes's not

209
00:16:44.799 --> 00:16:45.279
really die?

210
00:16:45.360 --> 00:16:45.600
Is it?

211
00:16:45.639 --> 00:16:51.440
That would be coloring? I suppose perhaps chalk, like you know,

212
00:16:54.080 --> 00:16:57.200
blackboard chalk. I could like just push that into my

213
00:16:57.279 --> 00:16:59.919
beard and that look like I've got a white bit.

214
00:17:00.759 --> 00:17:03.120
And then I said, is it because I'm a bit old?

215
00:17:03.240 --> 00:17:06.440
Said yeah, just I said, don't worry, and I pull

216
00:17:06.480 --> 00:17:09.880
out a what a wet wipe from my pants and

217
00:17:10.039 --> 00:17:14.799
just like look, it's look, I'm not I'm not completely gray.

218
00:17:16.759 --> 00:17:19.079
And now one might say, well, you are actually still gray,

219
00:17:19.359 --> 00:17:22.400
so no, I'm not. It's chalk. And then I go

220
00:17:22.519 --> 00:17:29.359
home and I realize, okay, I was I'm already gray.

221
00:17:29.640 --> 00:17:32.599
Some part of me is not gray because I shaved

222
00:17:32.640 --> 00:17:36.519
my head, and I shaved my I trimmed my beard

223
00:17:38.400 --> 00:17:40.799
the other day and there was clumps of dark hair

224
00:17:40.839 --> 00:17:48.799
there there was There wasn't from me bum, so it's

225
00:17:48.839 --> 00:17:56.599
definitely from my face on my head. So I did it. Okay,

226
00:17:56.920 --> 00:18:10.880
let's forget Yeah, right, okay, let's move on. So I think, oh,

227
00:18:10.960 --> 00:18:13.480
I got caught. This is really bad. Okay, I'm not

228
00:18:13.759 --> 00:18:16.720
just gonna help it. I was talking to a lady

229
00:18:17.559 --> 00:18:22.319
today when I was walking with me, you know then,

230
00:18:22.720 --> 00:18:27.880
and I think I got caught looking down the top.

231
00:18:28.279 --> 00:18:31.079
I'm sorry. I didn't mean to. I didn't mean to

232
00:18:31.119 --> 00:18:37.039
get caught. I mean she didn't actually specifically say what

233
00:18:37.160 --> 00:18:41.839
you're doing looking down my top, but she did ask

234
00:18:41.920 --> 00:18:46.119
me why I was standing on the ladder, So it's

235
00:18:46.240 --> 00:18:53.480
kind of I don't know. It's hard to I mean,

236
00:18:53.680 --> 00:18:56.359
I don't know, it's hard to know, because you can't

237
00:18:56.400 --> 00:18:58.759
just like question it. Oh, did you catch me looking

238
00:18:58.759 --> 00:19:03.720
down your top? And she said no, but now I

239
00:19:03.720 --> 00:19:06.440
know you were. I said, no, you don't. I'm just saying, okay,

240
00:19:06.480 --> 00:19:11.000
you do, really don't you. Oh, but of course I wasn't,

241
00:19:11.000 --> 00:19:14.160
and I'm just making this up. Of course she was

242
00:19:14.200 --> 00:19:18.799
looking trying to look down my top, and I was offended, Like,

243
00:19:19.240 --> 00:19:28.319
leave my bosoms alone, they're mine. I think my chest

244
00:19:28.400 --> 00:19:31.519
is coming along. I think I've definitely I seem to

245
00:19:31.559 --> 00:19:35.720
be flattering the tummy now that I was. I say that,

246
00:19:35.759 --> 00:19:39.720
and I just grabbed a big massive Yeah. Maybe when

247
00:19:39.759 --> 00:19:46.799
I lay down, I am when I lay down quite slim. Yeah,

248
00:19:47.640 --> 00:19:51.599
when I hang upside down, I'm taller. I mean it depends, well,

249
00:19:51.640 --> 00:19:53.720
you know, sort of do with gravity. I suppose, isn't

250
00:19:53.759 --> 00:20:07.839
it the dog walk in I remember saying to someone that's.

251
00:20:09.960 --> 00:20:10.440
I had this.

252
00:20:11.160 --> 00:20:14.960
I think I was sort of kind of semulating this lady.

253
00:20:16.480 --> 00:20:23.440
And so I'm just outside it's a sunny day, and

254
00:20:23.480 --> 00:20:30.480
she said, why are you looking at my top? I said,

255
00:20:30.480 --> 00:20:30.960
what do you mean?

256
00:20:32.240 --> 00:20:32.440
Said?

257
00:20:32.559 --> 00:20:35.720
You're staring at the top? Is it something on it?

258
00:20:36.279 --> 00:20:40.400
Like she's spilled ice cream or something. I don't know.

259
00:20:41.839 --> 00:20:43.119
What do you mean I'm not looking at your top?

260
00:20:43.160 --> 00:20:45.000
She said, I can see you're looking at my top.

261
00:20:46.000 --> 00:20:48.039
I said, you can't see me look at your top

262
00:20:48.079 --> 00:20:51.720
because I've got sunglasses. When they're not they're acting like

263
00:20:52.119 --> 00:20:54.920
normal glasses. And I said, you cannot see my eyes

264
00:20:54.960 --> 00:20:59.079
through these. She said, yes, I can. I said you can't.

265
00:20:59.359 --> 00:21:02.319
Why are you you can? You can't see where I'm

266
00:21:02.319 --> 00:21:06.640
looking because these are shades. When it's sunny, they're turned

267
00:21:06.640 --> 00:21:10.000
into shades. You cannot see my eyes. She said, I

268
00:21:10.039 --> 00:21:12.319
can see your eyes clearly. I can see exactly where

269
00:21:12.319 --> 00:21:16.079
you're looking. I said, no, you can't, so she she

270
00:21:16.160 --> 00:21:19.559
pulled a person, pulled off and pulled off. She pulled

271
00:21:19.559 --> 00:21:23.119
someone to the side. Another pedestrian said, can you tell

272
00:21:23.160 --> 00:21:25.759
me that you can see his eyes? Can't you know?

273
00:21:25.799 --> 00:21:28.319
And she said, yeah, you see the where he's looking.

274
00:21:28.799 --> 00:21:31.359
He's staring at your chest. I said, I'm not staring

275
00:21:31.359 --> 00:21:33.720
at staring at mine now, and I'm not I'm not

276
00:21:33.880 --> 00:21:38.200
staring at anyone's chair. You can't see my eyes. They've

277
00:21:38.200 --> 00:21:41.720
got I specifically bought them so that you can't see

278
00:21:41.960 --> 00:21:44.400
where I'm looking. And she said, I thought it was

279
00:21:44.440 --> 00:21:47.960
because of your eyesight. I said, yeah, it's because of

280
00:21:48.000 --> 00:21:49.839
my eyesight as well. And I didn't you know, I

281
00:21:49.880 --> 00:21:52.640
won't wear glasses if I didn't need them, she said,

282
00:21:52.640 --> 00:21:55.200
But you said the actor light was because you've got

283
00:21:55.240 --> 00:22:01.759
the that macro degeneration in the fact, and you have

284
00:22:01.839 --> 00:22:04.240
to be careful your eyes so that you know, you

285
00:22:04.279 --> 00:22:06.200
have to protect your eyes from the sun so that

286
00:22:06.240 --> 00:22:09.359
it doesn't progress any further, like with your dad and

287
00:22:09.400 --> 00:22:13.720
your nan and your other family members. And I said, yeah, yeah,

288
00:22:13.920 --> 00:22:18.200
that that is the reason. But at the same time,

289
00:22:18.839 --> 00:22:23.880
I actually was thinking that no one could see my eyes.

290
00:22:24.880 --> 00:22:27.160
She said, yeah, we can see your eyes. Someone else

291
00:22:27.200 --> 00:22:29.400
passed that, yeah, I can see them. Stop looking at

292
00:22:29.400 --> 00:22:36.799
my chest, and carried on walking like So it turns

293
00:22:36.839 --> 00:22:40.119
out and I start asking people that I know, can

294
00:22:40.160 --> 00:22:42.839
you see my eyes when I've got my glasses on

295
00:22:42.880 --> 00:22:47.440
and it's sunny. Yeah, I've asked everyone, and everyone can

296
00:22:47.440 --> 00:22:58.599
see my eyes. So for twelve years, twelve summers, twelve years,

297
00:22:58.599 --> 00:23:01.720
I've been walking around thinking people can't see where I'm looking,

298
00:23:03.279 --> 00:23:04.920
and they've all been able to see where I'm looking.

299
00:23:10.880 --> 00:23:13.920
My question is can I get a refund? Can I

300
00:23:13.960 --> 00:23:19.240
get my money back? I just when I get my

301
00:23:19.279 --> 00:23:25.960
new glasses I may just actually buy some proper sunglasses

302
00:23:26.640 --> 00:23:33.799
with my prescription in them, because that's ridiculous. I should

303
00:23:33.839 --> 00:23:40.599
be able to have the freedom to I'm just.

304
00:23:43.000 --> 00:23:48.039
Yeah.

305
00:23:48.599 --> 00:23:53.440
Anyway, So walking, the first dog I walked was I

306
00:23:53.559 --> 00:23:56.079
made all up? Of course, the first dog I walked

307
00:23:56.319 --> 00:24:03.359
was did I have any friends with dogs at school?

308
00:24:04.119 --> 00:24:06.039
I don't think I did. I don't think I had

309
00:24:06.039 --> 00:24:10.160
any dogs, dog friends, friends with dogs, dogs that lived

310
00:24:10.160 --> 00:24:18.720
in a friend's house. No, I didn't. No, I had

311
00:24:18.720 --> 00:24:20.640
a friend that had two cats. And there were those

312
00:24:20.720 --> 00:24:24.160
board cats, the ones with no cut clothes on, you know,

313
00:24:24.240 --> 00:24:29.519
the ones that are just basically naked. And it looked

314
00:24:29.559 --> 00:24:31.799
like the kind of things that you see hanging up

315
00:24:32.559 --> 00:24:38.039
in a tie a tie market. I wasn't sure there

316
00:24:38.039 --> 00:24:43.440
were cats or bats. They were lovely cats, guvey. It

317
00:24:43.519 --> 00:24:45.960
looked like statues, though, because they just used to sit

318
00:24:46.039 --> 00:24:52.039
there really still. And please don't shout out. We know

319
00:24:52.039 --> 00:24:54.759
what you mean by statues statues sit still. When people

320
00:24:54.799 --> 00:24:57.480
say it was like a statue, we know that that means.

321
00:24:57.480 --> 00:25:00.839
It means it was very still, all right below me.

322
00:25:01.200 --> 00:25:04.640
Just because bank holiday don't have to be all frizzy

323
00:25:04.640 --> 00:25:09.440
with me or frizzy and fuzzy and fizzy and blippy

324
00:25:09.599 --> 00:25:19.000
blippy blue. So I'm walking Misty. I talked about Misty

325
00:25:19.000 --> 00:25:21.680
the other day and she she used to drag me around.

326
00:25:22.640 --> 00:25:24.839
I could not control her. She was way too big,

327
00:25:25.279 --> 00:25:32.119
way too strong, no training, and it was such a

328
00:25:32.160 --> 00:25:34.839
shame because she's a beautiful dog, or dogs are beautiful,

329
00:25:35.519 --> 00:25:40.119
but she's she was lovely. She just couldn't. I was

330
00:25:40.160 --> 00:25:42.640
scared of her, to be fair, she was too big,

331
00:25:43.480 --> 00:25:47.160
twice my size. I mean, she's probably bigger than I

332
00:25:47.160 --> 00:25:52.079
am now. Maybe doesn't weigh as much as our way,

333
00:25:52.160 --> 00:25:54.880
but she she may well have done. She was a

334
00:25:54.880 --> 00:25:59.839
good twelve stone, maybe fourteen stone, maybe even more. Maybe

335
00:26:00.079 --> 00:26:03.000
you might even way more than I do now, because

336
00:26:03.000 --> 00:26:08.359
she was a big, big dog. And you can literally

337
00:26:08.400 --> 00:26:11.039
put her on the scales and just see the dial

338
00:26:11.279 --> 00:26:16.440
just moving slowly. You can see in real time, see

339
00:26:16.440 --> 00:26:20.240
her grow in real time. It was like watching the moon.

340
00:26:20.279 --> 00:26:22.160
You can see the moon move if you just watch it.

341
00:26:23.960 --> 00:26:26.079
I mean, technically, if you watch anything long enough, you

342
00:26:26.119 --> 00:26:28.279
can see it move, can't you. If you watch a

343
00:26:28.319 --> 00:26:32.039
mountain long enough, you can see the mountain dissolving and corroding.

344
00:26:32.599 --> 00:26:34.240
But you'd have to be a lie for sort of

345
00:26:34.279 --> 00:26:39.640
millions of years or thousands of years. But if you

346
00:26:39.680 --> 00:26:42.160
were alive for thousands of years or millions of years,

347
00:26:42.319 --> 00:26:44.440
it wouldn't be the best use of your time, would it.

348
00:26:46.519 --> 00:26:48.319
But then you might argue, yeah, but if you're going

349
00:26:48.359 --> 00:26:50.960
to live forever, what does a couple of million years mean?

350
00:26:53.400 --> 00:26:58.799
Suppose I did think that if I'd like to live forever,

351
00:27:00.119 --> 00:27:05.160
not for any other reason other than I just want

352
00:27:05.200 --> 00:27:08.759
to see everyone I care about die, No, Wow, as

353
00:27:08.799 --> 00:27:12.839
a joke, I want to see I'd like to be

354
00:27:12.880 --> 00:27:16.319
able to read every book. Not every book, There's going

355
00:27:16.359 --> 00:27:18.200
to be a lot of really bad books, but I'd

356
00:27:18.240 --> 00:27:20.640
like to read every book that I want to read,

357
00:27:21.440 --> 00:27:25.680
see every movie that I want to see, do ever,

358
00:27:25.839 --> 00:27:30.400
study every subject that I want to study. So maybe

359
00:27:30.440 --> 00:27:36.839
if I wanted to go into I don't know, philosophy

360
00:27:38.960 --> 00:27:42.319
and just study everything and decide I'm going to spend

361
00:27:42.319 --> 00:27:46.640
the next fifty years or one hundred years studying philosophy,

362
00:27:47.279 --> 00:27:49.440
then in a hundred years time, I'm going to study

363
00:27:50.759 --> 00:27:53.200
everything to do with space. So I'm going to you know,

364
00:27:53.319 --> 00:27:57.039
it's like I'm really going to become good at one

365
00:27:57.319 --> 00:28:02.400
thing or something. Because earlier today I was trying to

366
00:28:02.400 --> 00:28:03.799
think of something that I was good at, and I

367
00:28:03.799 --> 00:28:10.400
couldn't think of anything meant just watching television class as

368
00:28:10.440 --> 00:28:22.880
a talent. I didn't know, so, so Misty was Yeah,

369
00:28:24.640 --> 00:28:26.880
it was I couldn't take a dog. I couldn't take

370
00:28:26.880 --> 00:28:30.119
her for a walk, she was too big, couldn't do it.

371
00:28:31.519 --> 00:28:38.559
And the second dog I took for a walk would

372
00:28:38.720 --> 00:28:45.279
have been my friend who I lived with in London,

373
00:28:45.839 --> 00:28:50.000
and he would leave well, there was a time when

374
00:28:50.400 --> 00:28:51.880
I was at home and he was at work, and

375
00:28:51.920 --> 00:28:54.480
there's other times when he'd leave me looking after the

376
00:28:54.559 --> 00:29:01.359
dog while he went away. So when I had when

377
00:29:01.359 --> 00:29:03.880
I when I didn't have the dog, the dog was

378
00:29:03.960 --> 00:29:07.640
naughty when he was there. He let the dog do

379
00:29:07.680 --> 00:29:10.359
anything he wants, and he was naughty when I had

380
00:29:10.440 --> 00:29:13.599
him for a week on my own. I trained him,

381
00:29:15.240 --> 00:29:18.119
I had him walking around the park with me and

382
00:29:18.160 --> 00:29:21.279
he never ever bothered other dogs, didn't bark at them, nothing.

383
00:29:22.240 --> 00:29:25.039
As soon as his dad got back, he turned into

384
00:29:25.079 --> 00:29:31.200
a terror again. And I also realized that, you know,

385
00:29:31.200 --> 00:29:33.240
when I first met him, he was barking at me

386
00:29:33.319 --> 00:29:40.039
for about three hours. After I moved in, I realized

387
00:29:40.039 --> 00:29:43.200
that he was a scaredy cat. He wasn't brave at all.

388
00:29:44.920 --> 00:29:48.680
He was not even a bully. He was just scared

389
00:29:52.319 --> 00:29:56.880
and he didn't have Yeah, he didn't have any kind

390
00:29:56.920 --> 00:30:00.799
of he'd bark at other dogs, but he didn't Me

391
00:30:00.960 --> 00:30:03.240
did some unfortunately. He was a bit bity as well,

392
00:30:04.960 --> 00:30:09.359
but he behaved himself with me, And you know, he

393
00:30:09.440 --> 00:30:12.119
used to sleep in the bed with me, and when

394
00:30:12.799 --> 00:30:14.279
his dad wasn't there, he slept in the bed with

395
00:30:14.279 --> 00:30:17.119
his dad. But when his dad wasn't there, he's sleeping

396
00:30:17.160 --> 00:30:20.680
the bed with me. And you know, I got on

397
00:30:20.799 --> 00:30:24.240
really well with him. And I had a girlfriend. It's

398
00:30:24.279 --> 00:30:27.920
hard to believe that I did, and he loved her.

399
00:30:29.759 --> 00:30:32.960
I thought he was going to eat her because she

400
00:30:33.039 --> 00:30:34.920
wanted to come back to my place, and I thought,

401
00:30:37.359 --> 00:30:39.680
there's a good chance he's going to really bite her

402
00:30:40.440 --> 00:30:43.400
and attack her, but at the same time might get

403
00:30:43.400 --> 00:30:49.839
some sex. It was like I was out loud, no,

404
00:30:50.000 --> 00:30:51.880
I mean I kind of you know, it was like,

405
00:30:53.000 --> 00:30:55.880
I come back to your place, so okay, but I'm thinking,

406
00:30:58.160 --> 00:31:01.720
is he going to go crazy? I mean I could

407
00:31:01.720 --> 00:31:03.440
handle him, so I could get him into a different

408
00:31:03.480 --> 00:31:05.599
room and stuff. But we really thought he was going

409
00:31:05.680 --> 00:31:08.720
to go for her and maybe she'd be wouldn't want

410
00:31:08.720 --> 00:31:12.440
to come into the house because he was a proper barker.

411
00:31:12.640 --> 00:31:18.119
Like really, it was like a little puppy with her,

412
00:31:19.519 --> 00:31:23.599
a little puppy. Instantly, as soon as she walked in,

413
00:31:24.359 --> 00:31:27.079
he was laying on his back so she could rub

414
00:31:27.160 --> 00:31:31.319
his tummy. He was cutting up to her. Never met

415
00:31:31.319 --> 00:31:38.319
her before, absolutely loved her. Wouldn't let me in the

416
00:31:38.319 --> 00:31:42.559
bed though he was in the bed with her, wouldn't

417
00:31:42.599 --> 00:31:46.759
let me anywhere near her. So that relationship didn't last long.

418
00:31:48.880 --> 00:32:00.759
Dan ended up getting married but had kids I think fourteen. Honestly,

419
00:32:00.839 --> 00:32:04.039
he loved her. I didn't could not get my head

420
00:32:04.039 --> 00:32:13.480
around that. So what else? And she was ginger so

421
00:32:15.680 --> 00:32:23.960
I was him? And then the next one was my

422
00:32:24.400 --> 00:32:28.640
I moved into this house and there was a dog there. Oh,

423
00:32:28.720 --> 00:32:30.559
she was so cute. She's only a puppy when I

424
00:32:30.599 --> 00:32:36.119
moved in, So I should take her for walks. No, No,

425
00:32:36.319 --> 00:32:38.000
she wasn't living there to start with.

426
00:32:38.960 --> 00:32:39.039
No.

427
00:32:39.160 --> 00:32:42.839
So the next one I lived with was my other friend.

428
00:32:43.839 --> 00:32:48.880
He had a dog, and she always slept in a

429
00:32:48.920 --> 00:32:54.240
bed with him right under the covers, like, never on top,

430
00:32:54.440 --> 00:32:57.000
right under the cover, like really, and she she was

431
00:32:57.920 --> 00:33:00.559
she wouldn't leave him alone, so she did didn't really

432
00:33:00.599 --> 00:33:03.079
pay me much attention at all the whole time I

433
00:33:03.119 --> 00:33:07.559
was living there with him, because she just adored him.

434
00:33:09.680 --> 00:33:14.039
But I used to take her for walk sometimes and

435
00:33:14.119 --> 00:33:17.519
if I was looking, because sometimes he'd go, he'd go abroad,

436
00:33:17.960 --> 00:33:20.799
go to sea family, and I'd look after her for

437
00:33:20.839 --> 00:33:23.519
the weekend or for the week or whatever. So I'd

438
00:33:23.599 --> 00:33:25.240
have to take her out and stuff. And she was

439
00:33:25.279 --> 00:33:31.960
good as gold, really good, good dog. Used to lick

440
00:33:32.039 --> 00:33:37.960
my feet, which I like. That was nice. And then

441
00:33:40.039 --> 00:33:43.920
she was quite cuddly. She liked to cuddle as well.

442
00:33:45.839 --> 00:33:49.960
And then the third dog, no, the fourth dog was

443
00:33:50.680 --> 00:33:53.559
when I moved in to my cousins for the second time,

444
00:33:55.079 --> 00:33:57.079
and she had a puppy this time when I moved back,

445
00:33:58.960 --> 00:34:03.880
and I took the puppy for walks, long walks, and

446
00:34:04.279 --> 00:34:11.559
I needed that. I so needed something, you know. It's

447
00:34:11.719 --> 00:34:15.000
quite a difficult period. It was back in ninety seven,

448
00:34:16.320 --> 00:34:22.920
summer ninety seven, and she really helped, this little dog

449
00:34:23.039 --> 00:34:26.519
help me. And the cat there was a cat there

450
00:34:26.519 --> 00:34:30.559
as well that it took to me like none other

451
00:34:30.880 --> 00:34:34.119
animal was really taken to me before that. She took

452
00:34:34.159 --> 00:34:37.519
to me so love me. This cat she scratched at

453
00:34:37.519 --> 00:34:42.760
my bedroom door to come in, and she'd climb crawl

454
00:34:42.920 --> 00:34:46.400
up and down my back and sometimes I say, well,

455
00:34:46.480 --> 00:34:50.719
let me lay down first, and she know it's a

456
00:34:50.719 --> 00:34:54.519
bit less less scratchy when I was lying down, to

457
00:34:54.559 --> 00:35:02.159
be fair, But she's just so the peacefulness, the calmness

458
00:35:02.239 --> 00:35:07.159
of the purr and and she just took to me.

459
00:35:07.280 --> 00:35:09.320
I don't know why she was fully grown cat. It's

460
00:35:09.360 --> 00:35:13.880
not like she was a puppy or anything but or

461
00:35:13.920 --> 00:35:18.960
a kit and mother BlimE me, but this this dog

462
00:35:20.760 --> 00:35:23.880
so cute when I was little, and I kind of

463
00:35:24.000 --> 00:35:31.599
I lived there for four years and I didn't really

464
00:35:31.639 --> 00:35:33.639
take it out for many walks later on, but I

465
00:35:33.679 --> 00:35:36.719
did like early on, but it wasn't it wasn't my dog,

466
00:35:36.840 --> 00:35:41.840
so the she was. It was a girl as well.

467
00:35:42.599 --> 00:35:48.159
So she was definitely a mummies girl, like she's waited

468
00:35:48.159 --> 00:35:51.920
for a mum to come home. So yeah, she was.

469
00:35:51.960 --> 00:35:52.280
She was.

470
00:35:52.480 --> 00:35:54.000
She was a lovely kid, lovely girl.

471
00:35:55.079 --> 00:35:56.280
And then.

472
00:35:58.119 --> 00:36:00.920
Then LOGI I suppose is the next one. He's the

473
00:36:01.000 --> 00:36:05.960
next dog. So I haven't had any other dogs live

474
00:36:06.000 --> 00:36:12.519
in in I'm trying to think of all the different

475
00:36:12.519 --> 00:36:18.000
places I've lived since then, since London, since that house.

476
00:36:18.199 --> 00:36:21.119
That house, Yeah, that room that I lived in there.

477
00:36:21.679 --> 00:36:36.119
There's one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten,

478
00:36:36.760 --> 00:36:39.280
So this is the tenth place that I've lived in

479
00:36:40.039 --> 00:36:46.519
since there, and I left there in two thousand and one.

480
00:36:47.559 --> 00:36:51.119
So yeah, I've lived in ten places since two thousand

481
00:36:51.159 --> 00:36:56.840
and one, but I've been in this place for ten years.

482
00:36:57.639 --> 00:37:02.400
So I lived in nine different places from two thousand

483
00:37:02.440 --> 00:37:16.199
and one to twoy fourteen or twenty fifteen. M yeah,

484
00:37:16.239 --> 00:37:19.000
I think I've got all the places. I lose track

485
00:37:19.039 --> 00:37:23.159
a little bit. I try and remember I kind of roughly, yeah,

486
00:37:23.440 --> 00:37:29.840
got it mapped in my brain. So I guess Logi

487
00:37:30.000 --> 00:37:35.039
was the first dog for since two thousand.

488
00:37:34.599 --> 00:37:35.320
And one.

489
00:37:36.719 --> 00:37:41.840
When I got evicted from that place. So Logi was

490
00:37:41.960 --> 00:37:46.960
probably i'd say six years ago, maybe even seven years ago,

491
00:37:47.039 --> 00:37:50.199
but it's hard to kind of really pinpoint the year.

492
00:37:50.920 --> 00:37:54.320
So my friend got LOGI moved in. I saw him

493
00:37:54.320 --> 00:38:00.920
nearly every day. Lovely dog and apart from the other dog,

494
00:38:01.440 --> 00:38:04.559
but he was so excited. He'd come upstairs and they'd

495
00:38:04.679 --> 00:38:07.440
love coming in here, and he chucked stuff all around

496
00:38:07.440 --> 00:38:15.559
the place, like balls and bones, and it's because Andre

497
00:38:15.679 --> 00:38:20.119
lived here, so he get excited. But he didn't like Andre.

498
00:38:21.119 --> 00:38:23.400
He didn't dislike him as in being aggressive. He was

499
00:38:23.440 --> 00:38:27.519
scared of Andre because Andre used to come and bite him.

500
00:38:27.519 --> 00:38:35.079
It's true. And even though bear in mind the size

501
00:38:35.280 --> 00:38:41.440
of Logi compared to Andre, who was tiny compared to Vinnie,

502
00:38:41.480 --> 00:38:49.079
you know, Logi was petrified of him, and Andre had

503
00:38:49.159 --> 00:38:53.719
no fear, like zero fear. He would start he would

504
00:38:53.800 --> 00:38:57.159
start a fight with an elephant. Honestly, he didn't care,

505
00:38:57.639 --> 00:39:02.519
wasn't scared of anything, and he kept trying to buy

506
00:39:02.599 --> 00:39:05.679
it Logi's balls. I'm not even joking he did. He

507
00:39:05.800 --> 00:39:08.280
just kept so Logi would be like all just lay

508
00:39:08.320 --> 00:39:17.039
on his back and Andre would creep up. It's like

509
00:39:17.159 --> 00:39:19.039
I had to grab it and like stop it because

510
00:39:21.239 --> 00:39:25.800
there's I don't think there's probably a male on the

511
00:39:25.840 --> 00:39:29.000
planet that can watch that and not this, Like no,

512
00:39:29.360 --> 00:39:32.679
and I'm kind of that. That's just no, leave that

513
00:39:32.719 --> 00:39:36.679
part of the body alone. Just just no, no, no buying,

514
00:39:36.800 --> 00:39:40.239
no punching, just no kicking, just just leave it alone.

515
00:39:41.199 --> 00:39:46.400
So leave it be, Andre, leave it be. So I

516
00:39:46.440 --> 00:39:49.440
used to have to stop him, but Logi would hide.

517
00:39:49.599 --> 00:39:52.639
He'd run and hide, but at the same time he'd

518
00:39:52.719 --> 00:39:54.559
run in looking for him because he loved him. But

519
00:39:54.559 --> 00:39:57.760
at the same time, he was scared of him, so

520
00:39:58.039 --> 00:39:59.960
he liked to play and they'd play like a run

521
00:40:00.079 --> 00:40:04.079
around and stuff. But as as soon as Andre got

522
00:40:04.119 --> 00:40:09.280
a little bit rough, Logan didn't like it. But not

523
00:40:09.440 --> 00:40:17.159
once did Logi ever ever growl or show any kind

524
00:40:17.159 --> 00:40:22.000
of hostility towards Andrea. Ever, when he could have literally

525
00:40:22.079 --> 00:40:25.239
swallowed him by accident, if you know, if he wanted to,

526
00:40:25.280 --> 00:40:28.960
if he could have just accidentally eaten him, like maybe

527
00:40:28.960 --> 00:40:33.400
he was just eating a I don't know, eating some

528
00:40:33.480 --> 00:40:36.199
bacon off the carpet. I don't know why bacon would

529
00:40:36.239 --> 00:40:38.840
be on a carpet and then just onre part and

530
00:40:38.880 --> 00:40:41.159
he just managed to eat him by accidents. But no,

531
00:40:41.800 --> 00:40:47.800
never happened. This was Andrea's.

532
00:40:48.079 --> 00:40:48.719
Andrea was the.

533
00:40:48.719 --> 00:40:52.559
Boss of this place in the same way that vinnit's

534
00:40:52.599 --> 00:40:58.960
the boss of this place. But I think in some

535
00:40:59.000 --> 00:41:03.360
ways Andrea was even all the boss. I do wonder

536
00:41:03.519 --> 00:41:07.199
how they would have got on them too, Vinie and

537
00:41:07.199 --> 00:41:09.559
Andre together. I know I'm never going to know him I,

538
00:41:10.159 --> 00:41:13.599
but it does make me wonder how would they have

539
00:41:17.320 --> 00:41:19.760
Because you've got Andre who was not scared of anything,

540
00:41:20.440 --> 00:41:22.519
but you've also got a little dog that he has

541
00:41:22.960 --> 00:41:30.639
got that hunting instinct for little animals. And he also

542
00:41:30.719 --> 00:41:35.199
doesn't back down, so it would be yeah, I don't

543
00:41:35.239 --> 00:41:38.800
know if it would be a particularly good match. I

544
00:41:38.800 --> 00:41:42.639
think it'd be fine if Vinnie was a puppy, because

545
00:41:42.639 --> 00:41:46.400
it would know no different. Andre had always been there

546
00:41:46.960 --> 00:41:52.039
and he'd love him. But coming in at ten months old,

547
00:41:53.239 --> 00:41:55.760
I don't know. I mean he was still technically like

548
00:41:55.800 --> 00:41:58.360
a puppy, I guess, but ten months old, it's not

549
00:41:58.440 --> 00:42:02.079
really a puppy. Is that he's a toddler? I guess

550
00:42:02.119 --> 00:42:10.280
at that age. Turned three at the end of February.

551
00:42:11.480 --> 00:42:14.559
You believe it. I got him at ten months old.

552
00:42:14.760 --> 00:42:20.239
Now he's three years three months old. I don't understand.

553
00:42:21.639 --> 00:42:29.440
It got so quick, so quick. I can't believe he's

554
00:42:29.480 --> 00:42:37.280
now ninety five. So really, the most dog walking I

555
00:42:37.440 --> 00:42:42.159
do is with Finny, like I not obviously you say, well, yeah,

556
00:42:42.280 --> 00:42:45.119
he's a dog. I don't mean just now, but ever

557
00:42:47.400 --> 00:42:51.559
I used to take I used to go to Nottingham

558
00:42:52.039 --> 00:42:54.320
and my friend had a dog there. That's I forgot

559
00:42:54.360 --> 00:42:57.119
about this. My dog had a friend. My friend had

560
00:42:57.119 --> 00:43:01.159
a dog, rather lovely dog, and I should take him.

561
00:43:01.239 --> 00:43:04.119
I think he was a greyhound and I should take

562
00:43:04.199 --> 00:43:04.519
him for.

563
00:43:04.519 --> 00:43:08.400
Walks and.

564
00:43:11.400 --> 00:43:15.320
That was cool, you know, he was a cool dog.

565
00:43:17.280 --> 00:43:21.599
But yeah, so I forgot about that. So he had

566
00:43:21.639 --> 00:43:25.800
a dog. Also also also also I did go on

567
00:43:25.840 --> 00:43:28.079
a holiday with a friend who also had a dog,

568
00:43:30.280 --> 00:43:32.599
and I used to take her for a little walks

569
00:43:32.599 --> 00:43:40.800
because we went to corn Wall, corn Wall during the lockdown.

570
00:43:40.920 --> 00:43:46.280
I think it was two thousand and twenty two, twenty

571
00:43:46.320 --> 00:43:54.519
one maybe twenty one, yeah, twenty twenty one, and the

572
00:43:55.400 --> 00:43:58.599
everything was half closed. It was still it wasn't in

573
00:43:58.719 --> 00:44:04.639
full lockdown, but there's so much stuff wasn't opening, including

574
00:44:04.639 --> 00:44:07.119
a pub that was closing at six o'clock in the

575
00:44:07.159 --> 00:44:11.280
evening or seven o'clock. What pub closes at seven o'clock

576
00:44:11.280 --> 00:44:15.559
in the evening. And this was on a site full

577
00:44:15.599 --> 00:44:21.039
of holiday homes which weren't very busy for some reason.

578
00:44:22.360 --> 00:44:26.559
And so I took her for some walks and stuff,

579
00:44:26.599 --> 00:44:29.559
which was nice. I think it was the first time

580
00:44:29.559 --> 00:44:34.199
I'd ever picked dog poo up never, never, never picked

581
00:44:34.239 --> 00:44:38.960
dog poo up before until I picked andres poo up

582
00:44:39.119 --> 00:44:41.320
in the past, but that dog poo never done dog

583
00:44:41.360 --> 00:44:44.400
poo before. Whenever I walked a dog in the past,

584
00:44:44.480 --> 00:44:48.599
I just and that's wrong. But back then there was

585
00:44:48.599 --> 00:44:50.800
no it wasn't a legal thing in a bay. It's

586
00:44:51.519 --> 00:44:56.840
a legal a legal requirement now, but you know, in

587
00:44:56.920 --> 00:45:01.199
the nineties and stuff, it wasn't. And I just it's

588
00:45:01.239 --> 00:45:06.000
not my dog, not picking up, not to her. But yeah,

589
00:45:06.000 --> 00:45:08.559
I would wouldn't be like that now because I'm now

590
00:45:08.599 --> 00:45:17.480
technically an adult technically. And my friend's dog ran ran away.

591
00:45:17.960 --> 00:45:21.280
She ran out of the house in this like holiday place.

592
00:45:22.159 --> 00:45:26.559
So my friend's screaming, come back, Daisy, Rosie days Daisy.

593
00:45:27.079 --> 00:45:31.920
So I'm like, I'm running after her. It's a little dog.

594
00:45:32.039 --> 00:45:34.800
I'm like, I don't want it to run in the road.

595
00:45:34.840 --> 00:45:38.400
You know, obviously she's a lovely dog. She's running. It's

596
00:45:38.440 --> 00:45:41.639
like I think it's turned into a game because I'm

597
00:45:41.719 --> 00:45:45.920
chasing her. She's got this big, fat, wobbly thing running. Well,

598
00:45:46.239 --> 00:45:48.280
I'm going to use the word running very vaguely on

599
00:45:48.320 --> 00:45:54.639
this one. And I end up falling over and toppling

600
00:45:54.760 --> 00:46:01.400
and rolling and all over the place. And it's amazing

601
00:46:01.480 --> 00:46:04.079
how many people appear when you fall over in public.

602
00:46:05.719 --> 00:46:08.440
Suddenly there was like all the neighbors were on their

603
00:46:08.480 --> 00:46:15.039
grass outside their holiday homes, laughing. Even a dog stopped

604
00:46:15.039 --> 00:46:18.400
to have a laugh. That's how she got caught like

605
00:46:19.800 --> 00:46:22.280
you know, her friend, my friend who managed to get

606
00:46:22.280 --> 00:46:27.320
her because she was rolling around laughing at me. Now

607
00:46:27.320 --> 00:46:28.079
I was in pain.

608
00:46:29.880 --> 00:46:30.119
You know.

609
00:46:30.280 --> 00:46:32.280
This is when I was heavier than I am now,

610
00:46:33.320 --> 00:46:37.559
So I was you know, one hundred and two kilos

611
00:46:37.639 --> 00:46:40.440
or whatever, maybe a little bit more, so i'd like

612
00:46:40.599 --> 00:46:46.800
proper when I fell over, I was bruising myself. I

613
00:46:46.880 --> 00:46:49.599
wasn't bruising myself as I was falling, but the fall

614
00:46:49.639 --> 00:46:54.039
bruised you know me, and you know, a little bit

615
00:46:54.039 --> 00:46:58.679
of a limp for the rest of the holiday. To

616
00:46:58.800 --> 00:47:01.880
be fair, it was a little bit put on because

617
00:47:03.280 --> 00:47:05.840
laughing they laugh at her just annoyed me a little bit.

618
00:47:06.159 --> 00:47:08.159
So you know, I'm hurt.

619
00:47:09.199 --> 00:47:10.199
And I'm hurt here.

620
00:47:11.199 --> 00:47:15.519
I've hurt my leg. I've hurt my leg And she

621
00:47:15.599 --> 00:47:17.119
said you haven't, have you I said, yeah, I have.

622
00:47:17.840 --> 00:47:21.679
We'll stand up. Then I said, I'm struggling to so

623
00:47:21.800 --> 00:47:24.239
can you still stop laughing? She said, no, no, that's fine,

624
00:47:24.280 --> 00:47:28.599
I can't help it. You have a look like we've

625
00:47:28.639 --> 00:47:31.239
been look at it's my leg. See it's there. It's

626
00:47:31.239 --> 00:47:35.320
my leg hasn't fallen off, it's still there. And he said,

627
00:47:35.360 --> 00:47:39.239
can you just walk? And can you I said, yeah,

628
00:47:39.480 --> 00:47:43.760
but it hurts. She's still laughing, like, no, really, you

629
00:47:43.760 --> 00:47:47.639
don't understand it. It hurts a lot. So I decided to limp,

630
00:47:48.519 --> 00:47:51.440
thinking that that might gain a little bit of sympathy.

631
00:47:52.079 --> 00:47:56.199
It didn't work, but it did quite down the laughter

632
00:47:56.239 --> 00:48:00.960
a little bit. So for the rest of the week,

633
00:48:00.960 --> 00:48:06.079
I'm limping, but my leg's fine, but I kind of

634
00:48:06.119 --> 00:48:10.000
have to keep it going. It's a bit like, you know,

635
00:48:10.039 --> 00:48:14.840
when you pretend to be a vegetarian, or when I

636
00:48:15.000 --> 00:48:15.800
pretended to be.

637
00:48:15.760 --> 00:48:16.800
Interested in.

638
00:48:18.559 --> 00:48:22.079
Astronomy when I was a kid and end up sort

639
00:48:22.079 --> 00:48:27.519
of having six years worth of books and stuff every

640
00:48:27.559 --> 00:48:30.880
Christmas and every Birthday something to do with astronomy. And

641
00:48:31.079 --> 00:48:35.960
I had no interest in astronomy. You know. All it

642
00:48:36.119 --> 00:48:37.960
was is I was just spying on my next door

643
00:48:37.960 --> 00:48:42.760
neighbors sunbathing and through the binoculars, my dad's binoculars, and

644
00:48:42.800 --> 00:48:44.159
he said, what are you doing. I said, I'm trying

645
00:48:44.199 --> 00:48:47.440
to see the stars And he said, well, this daytime,

646
00:48:52.920 --> 00:48:58.400
this is ridiculous. I said, I've always wanted to see

647
00:48:58.440 --> 00:49:01.559
I said, no, I can't see them. He said, you'dn't

648
00:49:01.559 --> 00:49:04.719
really look astically into the sun either, because that could

649
00:49:04.800 --> 00:49:08.000
really cause problems for your eyes. I said, oh, okay,

650
00:49:08.079 --> 00:49:10.400
I'm glad you got him in time. You really are

651
00:49:10.480 --> 00:49:14.400
the best daddy. He said, okay. So so you're interested

652
00:49:14.440 --> 00:49:16.920
in stars, he said, He said yeah. He said, you

653
00:49:16.960 --> 00:49:19.360
sure you're not just looking at that the next door

654
00:49:19.400 --> 00:49:24.559
neighbor's sunbathing. I said, where? Who Oh? No, I didn't

655
00:49:24.599 --> 00:49:28.679
didn't see her there rubbing oil. And no, I didn't

656
00:49:28.719 --> 00:49:31.960
didn't see it. I had no idea. He said, okay,

657
00:49:32.119 --> 00:49:35.280
So if you were interested in the stars, why were

658
00:49:35.320 --> 00:49:38.960
you pointing towards the garden next door. I said, I

659
00:49:39.000 --> 00:49:44.000
was just just getting ready because the binoculars are so heavy,

660
00:49:44.280 --> 00:49:47.360
because I'm only little, and you're so big and strong,

661
00:49:47.800 --> 00:49:49.880
and you know, you can hold them with one hand,

662
00:49:49.920 --> 00:49:52.480
but I'm struggling to hold them with two. I mean,

663
00:49:52.559 --> 00:49:54.440
they weren't nearly as big as my head, to be fair,

664
00:49:55.000 --> 00:49:57.519
and I'm struggling to look up. You know, what I

665
00:49:57.559 --> 00:50:02.199
really need is a telescope. And he said, okay. He

666
00:50:02.239 --> 00:50:08.840
took the binoculars away. He said, I left them, and

667
00:50:08.880 --> 00:50:11.440
he went to the next room. And I don't know

668
00:50:11.480 --> 00:50:13.440
what he was doing, but I heard some weird noises,

669
00:50:14.559 --> 00:50:21.360
but he got me a telescope. I really didn't think

670
00:50:21.360 --> 00:50:25.159
anything was coin of it got me a telescope, and

671
00:50:25.199 --> 00:50:30.239
then from then on, every Christmas, every Birthday, an atlas

672
00:50:30.239 --> 00:50:35.519
of the stars, a big picture of the moon, the

673
00:50:35.679 --> 00:50:41.119
history of telescopes. Books that I couldn't even understand, Like

674
00:50:41.199 --> 00:50:43.320
every three words, I didn't know what the word meant.

675
00:50:44.639 --> 00:50:48.199
I mean that's pretty much most books, really, but especially

676
00:50:48.199 --> 00:50:56.639
dictionaries for Saurus what a stupid name. So I really

677
00:50:58.440 --> 00:51:02.719
just like, you know, it's a little bit like it's

678
00:51:02.719 --> 00:51:05.760
not really anything like this at all, but you know,

679
00:51:05.800 --> 00:51:11.000
when you offer someone I did this today, right, This

680
00:51:11.159 --> 00:51:14.719
is what I was going to talk about with Vinnie stole.

681
00:51:15.079 --> 00:51:19.719
He stole a ball. I was talking to this neighbor.

682
00:51:19.800 --> 00:51:21.960
She's not like a neighbor neighbor. She's a dog walker,

683
00:51:22.039 --> 00:51:24.960
lives up the road. And she said, oh, I'm going

684
00:51:25.000 --> 00:51:28.159
to do that later, and she pulled it to the wall,

685
00:51:28.960 --> 00:51:30.920
so she had like a wall in front of her

686
00:51:31.039 --> 00:51:34.280
driveway with I said, what you're going to do to it?

687
00:51:35.480 --> 00:51:40.280
She said, I'm going to dig up the all the weeds.

688
00:51:41.639 --> 00:51:43.360
I said, what are you going to use a streamer

689
00:51:43.480 --> 00:51:45.719
or something. She said, no, I'm just going to He's

690
00:51:45.719 --> 00:51:49.719
just going to pull them up with my hands. I said,

691
00:51:49.719 --> 00:51:53.639
that hurt my back. He said, how how's me pulling

692
00:51:53.719 --> 00:51:56.400
up with my hands going to hurt your back? I said,

693
00:51:56.440 --> 00:51:57.960
I mean if I was going to do it, it would

694
00:51:58.000 --> 00:52:04.000
hurt my back. She said, you are for him? I said,

695
00:52:04.039 --> 00:52:04.840
you want me to do it?

696
00:52:05.000 --> 00:52:05.239
Oh?

697
00:52:05.239 --> 00:52:08.039
Thank you. It's like, how the hell did that happen?

698
00:52:08.960 --> 00:52:12.000
And I said, look, I can't bend over and do

699
00:52:12.039 --> 00:52:15.960
it because I got my back. It's just it's going

700
00:52:16.000 --> 00:52:18.920
to cause problems, so I can't. You know, But if

701
00:52:18.960 --> 00:52:22.239
you've got a streamer or a what do you call it?

702
00:52:22.320 --> 00:52:27.280
Wherever those things where you can fly mo or whatever

703
00:52:27.320 --> 00:52:29.639
they're called. She said, yeah, I've got one in the garden.

704
00:52:30.480 --> 00:52:33.199
I said, if you really, She said no. I said,

705
00:52:33.239 --> 00:52:35.000
why do you say you got one in the garden? Falling?

706
00:52:35.119 --> 00:52:37.039
She said, I thought it be better for your story

707
00:52:37.079 --> 00:52:40.679
when you tell it on the podcast, because you know,

708
00:52:40.960 --> 00:52:43.239
not having one that's pretty much brings it to the end,

709
00:52:43.280 --> 00:52:47.000
doesn't it. I said, okay. She says she would just

710
00:52:47.039 --> 00:52:48.880
pretend that I do have one so we can make

711
00:52:48.880 --> 00:52:53.559
the story more interesting. I said, okay. So we went

712
00:52:53.599 --> 00:52:55.880
into a guard into the shed, got a fly MO

713
00:52:56.480 --> 00:53:00.960
hasn't been touched for years I'm talking. She didn't even

714
00:53:00.960 --> 00:53:08.000
know if it worked anymore. And you know, it needed batteries.

715
00:53:08.159 --> 00:53:12.000
That's how old it was. It had gray hairs. I

716
00:53:12.039 --> 00:53:17.199
don't know. That doesn't make sense, does it? And I said, well,

717
00:53:17.239 --> 00:53:20.159
I kind of know how these things work. He said,

718
00:53:20.159 --> 00:53:21.920
how long is it since you use one? I said, oh,

719
00:53:22.119 --> 00:53:27.239
just I was trying to think back, So it's only

720
00:53:27.280 --> 00:53:34.519
about thirty years, that's all she said.

721
00:53:34.599 --> 00:53:34.760
Is that?

722
00:53:34.840 --> 00:53:39.079
All said? Yeah? That is a bit long, isn't it.

723
00:53:39.239 --> 00:53:42.280
She said, yep, especially when you're waiting in a queue,

724
00:53:43.440 --> 00:53:47.519
which is a bit weird thing to say. And I

725
00:53:48.280 --> 00:53:51.400
just said, well, we can trust we can test it out.

726
00:53:52.000 --> 00:53:55.079
I know roughly how to get the bit of string

727
00:53:55.119 --> 00:53:58.239
plastic thing out and then we'll plug it in. She

728
00:53:58.360 --> 00:54:01.400
got an extension lead and I ended up doing it.

729
00:54:02.440 --> 00:54:05.639
So it's one of those problems where this has happened

730
00:54:05.679 --> 00:54:12.960
to me before I made an empty offer. It happened

731
00:54:13.519 --> 00:54:17.119
years ago. You know, someone was saying I'm going to move.

732
00:54:18.159 --> 00:54:21.400
I said that what you're doing this weekend? Oh we're

733
00:54:21.440 --> 00:54:25.119
moving home. Before I knew it, the wrong part of

734
00:54:25.119 --> 00:54:34.719
my brain said do you need a hand? Oh, brilliant, thanks,

735
00:54:35.920 --> 00:54:41.519
And it wasn't a genuine offer. It was just it

736
00:54:41.559 --> 00:54:44.280
was to be fair. They did help me move, so

737
00:54:44.360 --> 00:54:50.920
I can't really moan. But it was just like, so

738
00:54:51.519 --> 00:54:54.119
what I tell people when if I offer something to

739
00:54:54.159 --> 00:54:56.119
someone and they said no, I said, well it was

740
00:54:56.159 --> 00:55:00.039
an empty offer anyway. So I don't know. Have that

741
00:55:00.119 --> 00:55:04.320
makes me look a bit bad. Perhaps I need to

742
00:55:04.360 --> 00:55:09.360
rethink some of the things I've said, not just from

743
00:55:09.400 --> 00:55:15.760
this recording. Ooh. I did a recording earlier and at

744
00:55:15.760 --> 00:55:18.280
the part it was like a body scan, I ended

745
00:55:18.360 --> 00:55:23.400
up talking about astronauts. I'm not quite sure where my

746
00:55:23.400 --> 00:55:29.960
brain's going these days. It's weird. I don't know. It's

747
00:55:30.000 --> 00:55:33.199
almost like I'm not sure if I can't go back

748
00:55:33.239 --> 00:55:38.280
to doing serious recordings anymore, to being all serious and

749
00:55:38.360 --> 00:55:43.079
all like solemn, and I don't know what the right

750
00:55:43.119 --> 00:55:48.639
word is. It's like, yeah, I don't know if I

751
00:55:48.639 --> 00:55:53.159
can do that anymore. I'm not sure the last time

752
00:55:53.199 --> 00:55:57.079
I actually did anything that was like super serious. Well

753
00:55:57.079 --> 00:55:57.639
maybe I have.

754
00:55:57.880 --> 00:56:05.679
But hey, I mean, so I'm doing this this wall

755
00:56:05.760 --> 00:56:19.719
food hm, and it.

756
00:56:16.400 --> 00:56:19.480
It's going quite well. I'm getting most of the wall

757
00:56:19.559 --> 00:56:23.360
done and then the thing breaks, you know, the thing

758
00:56:23.400 --> 00:56:25.920
snaps off. So I have to reput it on and

759
00:56:26.000 --> 00:56:28.760
it snaps again. Then it snaps again, and I think

760
00:56:28.840 --> 00:56:31.800
I change it or get it done about ten times

761
00:56:32.760 --> 00:56:39.400
and then the thing just falls apart. It actually banged

762
00:56:39.440 --> 00:56:48.639
against my leg, so m h, I p I ended

763
00:56:48.719 --> 00:56:52.400
up putting the sort of unplug it you and then

764
00:56:52.440 --> 00:56:55.039
put it back. I just put it onto a in

765
00:56:55.079 --> 00:56:58.559
front of a porch, and after I stopped crying, that

766
00:56:58.800 --> 00:57:02.599
was and where it went to my ankle. Act we

767
00:57:02.639 --> 00:57:05.079
didn't go into my bit. It banged my ankle. I

768
00:57:05.119 --> 00:57:09.599
wonder if there's any mark there. I can't see in

769
00:57:09.639 --> 00:57:18.679
this light. But I was trying to get this stuff.

770
00:57:18.840 --> 00:57:20.559
She asked me if i'd look at this stuff, which

771
00:57:20.599 --> 00:57:23.639
is it was growing out of the concrete of the pavement,

772
00:57:26.079 --> 00:57:28.880
and it just wasn't Yeah, it wasn't doing the job.

773
00:57:29.840 --> 00:57:34.760
I think I might have broken it because it might

774
00:57:34.800 --> 00:57:37.079
have been working before. It did seem to be working

775
00:57:37.079 --> 00:57:45.840
okay before. But at the same time, yeah, I was

776
00:57:45.880 --> 00:57:50.280
a little bit concerned. I didn't want the because it

777
00:57:50.400 --> 00:57:53.280
was when I was doing the pavement, bits of gravel

778
00:57:53.280 --> 00:57:56.119
were like flicking back at me and hitting me in

779
00:57:56.159 --> 00:57:59.280
the face. So that was probably a little clue that

780
00:57:59.320 --> 00:58:07.280
maybe it wasn't doing it. Correctly, and the seagull landed

781
00:58:07.320 --> 00:58:10.199
on my head. Do you know what? The other day

782
00:58:11.519 --> 00:58:17.760
this bird flew right at me and just missed me

783
00:58:17.840 --> 00:58:21.039
by an inch. I'm not even like making it up.

784
00:58:21.159 --> 00:58:24.320
I say, okay, maybe not an inch, but an inch

785
00:58:24.480 --> 00:58:32.000
is quite a lot. Okay, maybe it was okay, maybe

786
00:58:32.119 --> 00:58:34.920
a foot, but you know, to me, I think of

787
00:58:34.960 --> 00:58:37.559
an inch, and I think of a foot, but maybe yeah,

788
00:58:37.719 --> 00:58:41.159
maybe a foot. But it missed me really close. It's

789
00:58:41.239 --> 00:58:48.079
like just turned and it was at my head. I

790
00:58:48.159 --> 00:58:53.480
was like, even a bird doesn't want to kiss me? No,

791
00:58:53.760 --> 00:58:55.280
I thought, wow, why would you?

792
00:58:55.320 --> 00:58:55.400
How?

793
00:58:55.599 --> 00:58:59.599
First, how could you miss my head? And secondly, like

794
00:59:00.960 --> 00:59:03.840
birds are so good normally, I've never had a bird

795
00:59:05.119 --> 00:59:11.079
fly into me, even at my biggest, at my girthiest,

796
00:59:11.119 --> 00:59:18.599
I've never had a bird fly into me. I don't think. No,

797
00:59:18.760 --> 00:59:26.400
I haven't. No, no, I haven't, not even a pigeon,

798
00:59:33.159 --> 00:59:39.880
I don't think. So I'm just thinking maybe I have. No. No,

799
00:59:40.519 --> 00:59:46.000
I don't know. I don't think I have. So when

800
00:59:46.000 --> 00:59:50.440
I got Vinny, I started walking in straight away and

801
00:59:50.480 --> 00:59:55.599
it was weird because this was blurh. What year was it?

802
00:59:55.679 --> 01:00:02.239
Anyone anyone got an idea what year it was? Two

803
01:00:02.320 --> 01:00:12.719
thousand and then twenty two December. Yep, I think it

804
01:00:12.800 --> 01:00:20.639
was twoenty twenty two, and it was November twenty twenty

805
01:00:20.679 --> 01:00:28.519
three that my friend left, and then we're gone for

806
01:00:28.559 --> 01:00:31.199
all the way through twenty twenty four. Now were in

807
01:00:31.199 --> 01:00:34.280
twenty twenty five, so I've had him a while now.

808
01:00:37.760 --> 01:00:41.719
The first week I got him, it was snowing, which

809
01:00:41.760 --> 01:00:46.239
started snowing, and you know, think I got him on

810
01:00:46.239 --> 01:00:51.119
the Saturday. Start snowing on a Sunday something like that,

811
01:00:53.480 --> 01:00:57.119
but proper snow like it's settled. It was really thick

812
01:00:57.320 --> 01:01:04.880
and everything, and I took him out and unless there

813
01:01:04.960 --> 01:01:07.119
was snow on the ground at the time, I don't think.

814
01:01:07.119 --> 01:01:11.679
There was no snow all week, all till the next week,

815
01:01:11.800 --> 01:01:13.400
so it was snow on the ground. Then it turned

816
01:01:13.440 --> 01:01:19.159
to ice, of course, like it does. I was wearing boots.

817
01:01:19.239 --> 01:01:23.599
I didn't slip nothing, apart from once in the field.

818
01:01:24.360 --> 01:01:27.800
I did slip over some snow, but I didn't hurt

819
01:01:27.800 --> 01:01:30.199
myself because I fell in the snow, but that was

820
01:01:30.199 --> 01:01:44.239
because he led me down this ditch thing, and I

821
01:01:44.280 --> 01:01:47.519
was like, I felt quite proud of myself because I

822
01:01:47.559 --> 01:01:51.519
hadn't fallen over, hadn't slipped really apart from that one thing,

823
01:01:51.559 --> 01:01:54.760
but that was fine. But I didn't slip over on

824
01:01:54.800 --> 01:01:57.440
the pavement. I was wearing these big boots that were

825
01:01:57.519 --> 01:02:01.960
quite good grips, and like okay, and I was being

826
01:02:02.079 --> 01:02:05.719
really careful with my posture, even though he was trying

827
01:02:05.760 --> 01:02:10.039
to pull me each way and everywhere. And he was

828
01:02:10.119 --> 01:02:13.519
happy to be out in the snow in the cold.

829
01:02:13.599 --> 01:02:15.480
He didn't care. He was just happy just to be

830
01:02:15.559 --> 01:02:20.320
out and we were bonding. He was a bit naughty.

831
01:02:21.599 --> 01:02:23.280
It took a while for me and him to sort

832
01:02:23.280 --> 01:02:26.559
of lay the ground rules a little bit, you know,

833
01:02:27.880 --> 01:02:32.960
and I tried to have him stay in here, but

834
01:02:33.079 --> 01:02:39.880
he just kept barking and stuff. And in the end,

835
01:02:40.360 --> 01:02:42.159
you know, I let him into the bedroom and he's

836
01:02:42.199 --> 01:02:47.320
been sleeping in the bed ever since. But you know,

837
01:02:47.440 --> 01:02:49.599
he didn't want to. I think when he first moved in,

838
01:02:49.639 --> 01:02:52.360
he didn't want to be here, which is understandable. He

839
01:02:52.400 --> 01:02:55.239
wanted to be where his home was, which was across

840
01:02:55.280 --> 01:02:58.039
the road. That's where it'd lived for the last three months,

841
01:02:59.280 --> 01:03:02.679
and it was only ten months old, so I was

842
01:03:02.719 --> 01:03:06.039
literally his fourth place that he'd lived. He lived in

843
01:03:06.039 --> 01:03:08.880
a place where he was born until he was old

844
01:03:09.000 --> 01:03:12.239
enough to move somewhere else. So he got his first

845
01:03:12.239 --> 01:03:15.760
home and he was there for I don't know how long,

846
01:03:15.760 --> 01:03:20.519
a couple of months or whatever, three months, and then

847
01:03:21.599 --> 01:03:26.679
she became unwell, had to give him back or phoned

848
01:03:26.760 --> 01:03:30.039
up the breeders that can can you take him back

849
01:03:30.360 --> 01:03:33.320
and find him a home, So they took him back.

850
01:03:34.079 --> 01:03:39.159
He then stayed with a family member of theirs for

851
01:03:39.239 --> 01:03:42.440
three months or two two or three months, and then

852
01:03:44.000 --> 01:03:46.280
they sold it to me, sold it, sold him to me.

853
01:03:48.400 --> 01:03:50.599
So I was a fourth home that he'd lived in.

854
01:03:51.400 --> 01:03:54.199
So I think he was a little bit over, you know,

855
01:03:54.239 --> 01:03:56.400
all over the place. I'm sure he loved every single

856
01:03:56.440 --> 01:04:00.800
person he was around, and he was around a females.

857
01:04:01.119 --> 01:04:06.639
So I was the first only male that he'd lived with.

858
01:04:08.239 --> 01:04:08.840
It lived.

859
01:04:08.920 --> 01:04:12.760
The first place he lived there was females and a man.

860
01:04:13.559 --> 01:04:15.760
The second place he lived there was just a female.

861
01:04:16.000 --> 01:04:18.119
The third place he lived there was just a female.

862
01:04:18.440 --> 01:04:20.639
And then he moved in with me. And he's got

863
01:04:20.679 --> 01:04:24.840
a real affection for females, he just has. He's he

864
01:04:25.199 --> 01:04:27.440
loves men as well, but he loves women. He's got

865
01:04:27.440 --> 01:04:31.920
a real Yeah, there is you consider more affection there

866
01:04:32.440 --> 01:04:36.119
for women than there are for men. But he's still

867
01:04:36.199 --> 01:04:40.199
got more affection for men than he has for dogs.

868
01:04:40.039 --> 01:04:42.840
Like he loves prefers humans. He's got a couple of

869
01:04:42.840 --> 01:04:46.320
friends that he absolutely adores, But the rest of the time,

870
01:04:47.039 --> 01:04:49.679
if he sees a dog, like with a human, he'll

871
01:04:49.679 --> 01:04:52.920
go up to the human. He goes so low to

872
01:04:52.960 --> 01:04:56.760
a human before he says from before he says a

873
01:04:56.760 --> 01:04:58.320
load to the dog, you'll say load to the human.

874
01:05:00.679 --> 01:05:04.760
So that's how he is, and it's weird. So we

875
01:05:04.800 --> 01:05:10.360
got through that whole period of snow ice nothing. The

876
01:05:10.480 --> 01:05:12.840
day it rained. That day, I think it was a

877
01:05:12.880 --> 01:05:17.360
Wednesday or Tuesday. The following week it rained, all the

878
01:05:17.360 --> 01:05:24.199
ice was gone. My friend downstairs called up to bring him.

879
01:05:24.199 --> 01:05:25.599
Do you want to bring him out into the garden

880
01:05:25.639 --> 01:05:28.599
with LOGI? I said, all right. And this was like

881
01:05:28.719 --> 01:05:30.119
ten o'clock or something like that.

882
01:05:30.320 --> 01:05:30.920
Nine o'clock.

883
01:05:31.679 --> 01:05:34.280
So I go down with me crocs, not the pink

884
01:05:34.320 --> 01:05:38.760
ones I've got now, but the other ones, and I slip.

885
01:05:39.920 --> 01:05:42.199
So he's run down without the lead on, just run

886
01:05:42.239 --> 01:05:47.119
down into the garden. My friend standing not right at

887
01:05:47.119 --> 01:05:48.800
the bottom of the stairs, but you know, so he

888
01:05:48.840 --> 01:05:51.400
could see me. He was just standing waiting for me,

889
01:05:51.480 --> 01:05:55.400
and I slipped probably three steps down the top, and

890
01:05:55.440 --> 01:05:57.920
then I slipped and I bounced all the way down

891
01:05:58.000 --> 01:06:03.039
to the bottom, and my friend was laughing, which I

892
01:06:03.039 --> 01:06:05.480
probably would have laughed as well, had to not fractured

893
01:06:05.519 --> 01:06:15.760
my back, but I hadn't. Luckily I had my coat on. Now,

894
01:06:15.800 --> 01:06:21.440
if I had not had my coat on, I could

895
01:06:21.440 --> 01:06:25.679
have really really hurt myself, like but and this coat

896
01:06:25.719 --> 01:06:30.719
was quite padded, got like a winter coat. So I'm

897
01:06:30.800 --> 01:06:36.159
glad I did that. Yeah, so I slipped and bounced

898
01:06:36.159 --> 01:06:40.960
down the stairs. And that was the reason I mentioned

899
01:06:40.960 --> 01:06:47.440
this is because mentioned this is because the following after

900
01:06:47.519 --> 01:06:52.159
that day, for quite a few weeks, I'm still taking

901
01:06:52.239 --> 01:06:56.360
him for walks. I'm still having to bend down and

902
01:06:56.480 --> 01:07:00.119
pick up, you know, his poos and stuff. It was

903
01:07:00.239 --> 01:07:11.679
so hard, it was just really like almost impossible. In fact,

904
01:07:11.679 --> 01:07:14.679
I shouldn't have really been doing it. I don't think

905
01:07:14.719 --> 01:07:17.039
it was probably a good idea to be bending over

906
01:07:17.960 --> 01:07:20.840
with a fractured back. I had fractures in two places,

907
01:07:21.480 --> 01:07:26.400
and I don't think it's a problem walking around, but

908
01:07:26.480 --> 01:07:30.360
the bending over is I'm not sure how helpful that

909
01:07:30.519 --> 01:07:34.239
was to the healing. Maybe it was useful. I don't

910
01:07:34.239 --> 01:07:37.360
know enough about fractures of the back to know about that.

911
01:07:38.840 --> 01:07:43.559
But it did heal. And that was just such a

912
01:07:43.639 --> 01:07:50.880
weird way to start my dog walking experience with my

913
01:07:51.000 --> 01:07:53.039
own dog, because he's the first time I've had my

914
01:07:53.159 --> 01:07:58.199
own dog. I've only I've had three fourth I had

915
01:07:58.400 --> 01:08:05.000
a couple of goldfish. I I had a a budgy

916
01:08:05.039 --> 01:08:11.880
once and then I had a I had Andre, but

917
01:08:11.960 --> 01:08:15.000
he was my son and Vinnie's my son. But there's

918
01:08:15.159 --> 01:08:20.079
I need to, you know, kind of responsible situations I've

919
01:08:20.079 --> 01:08:24.159
been in, so that Vinnie was the first dog that

920
01:08:24.199 --> 01:08:28.159
I ever had to look after and to you know,

921
01:08:28.399 --> 01:08:31.520
to live with and to be in charge or to

922
01:08:32.039 --> 01:08:38.359
be responsible for. It was such a weird start to

923
01:08:38.479 --> 01:08:44.039
be literally limping. I was limping. I was using I

924
01:08:44.119 --> 01:08:47.479
was using because I had this.

925
01:08:50.640 --> 01:08:51.079
What did I have?

926
01:08:51.520 --> 01:09:02.399
I had a what did I have? Had an umbrella,

927
01:09:02.840 --> 01:09:05.600
but it was it had a like a walking stick

928
01:09:05.640 --> 01:09:07.880
on the end of it, So I was using that

929
01:09:08.399 --> 01:09:10.640
to help me to get a loot to get around.

930
01:09:12.399 --> 01:09:15.439
It was weird, honestly, and I was starting to hold

931
01:09:15.439 --> 01:09:17.960
onto that while I bent over and so I didn't

932
01:09:18.000 --> 01:09:24.760
fall over. It was strange. And then when I first

933
01:09:24.800 --> 01:09:28.520
started and taken him out for walks, we didn't really

934
01:09:30.359 --> 01:09:33.640
go into the field or to the parks. We started

935
01:09:33.640 --> 01:09:40.800
off walking around the pavement and because I'd never really okay,

936
01:09:41.359 --> 01:09:43.800
I think it was because with Andrea, I used to

937
01:09:43.840 --> 01:09:47.239
take him walking around the estate, so I kind of

938
01:09:49.960 --> 01:10:04.279
it had been it had been a while to how

939
01:10:04.319 --> 01:10:07.800
long it had been, had it been, Yeah, it been

940
01:10:07.880 --> 01:10:12.880
a while year and a bit since Andre. So I

941
01:10:13.119 --> 01:10:16.359
automatically just took him the same route that I used

942
01:10:16.399 --> 01:10:19.079
to take Andre, or there used to take me.

943
01:10:22.279 --> 01:10:25.000
And so we'd.

944
01:10:24.840 --> 01:10:29.399
Walk around the pavement around the estate and then go

945
01:10:29.479 --> 01:10:32.000
through the park and I'd be taking him out late

946
01:10:32.039 --> 01:10:40.840
at night, early hours of the morning. And then then

947
01:10:40.880 --> 01:10:42.920
they changed the lights so the lights were a lot

948
01:10:43.039 --> 01:10:46.760
dimmer than they were previously. They changed all and like

949
01:10:47.279 --> 01:10:49.880
just couldn't see, couldn't see really where I was going.

950
01:10:49.960 --> 01:10:56.520
So I don't go out late at night anymore. It

951
01:10:56.600 --> 01:11:00.359
might just be my eyesight. I don't know. I'm nause sure.

952
01:11:03.680 --> 01:11:08.680
This has been strange taking him out, because since I've

953
01:11:08.680 --> 01:11:11.840
had him, I stop at the pavement, I say wait, wait.

954
01:11:12.720 --> 01:11:16.960
He does wait hmmm. He kind of palls as well,

955
01:11:17.000 --> 01:11:20.640
but he will wait sometimes and what I say is

956
01:11:21.039 --> 01:11:27.319
slowly cross slowly. One of the few things I say

957
01:11:27.399 --> 01:11:31.119
to him, and it's not a big request, is it,

958
01:11:32.479 --> 01:11:38.760
you know, just slowly. And I've been saying the same

959
01:11:38.800 --> 01:11:41.159
thing to him every time we cross the road since

960
01:11:41.159 --> 01:11:43.000
I've had him, and he still.

961
01:11:42.760 --> 01:11:50.640
Pulls, so I just yeah, but that's it's this, that's

962
01:11:50.720 --> 01:11:53.119
my history of dog walking.

963
01:11:55.000 --> 01:11:57.399
Got to know a few people over the years with Vinnie,

964
01:11:57.920 --> 01:12:02.359
which is good. And I was invited into someone's house

965
01:12:02.439 --> 01:12:05.880
today for the first time, well not the first time

966
01:12:05.960 --> 01:12:08.319
being invited, but the first time that I actually went inside,

967
01:12:10.039 --> 01:12:13.399
and one of the neighbors asked before wanted a cup

968
01:12:13.439 --> 01:12:16.920
of tea. I said no, and it's say no, I

969
01:12:16.920 --> 01:12:19.359
said no, thanks, So because I was just going to

970
01:12:19.359 --> 01:12:21.880
come home, so I all, being a bit under the weather,

971
01:12:21.920 --> 01:12:27.840
I didn't. I was just taking him out just to

972
01:12:27.880 --> 01:12:31.000
get some air and have a nice a long walk

973
01:12:31.039 --> 01:12:36.720
and then come back. And you know, but he had

974
01:12:36.760 --> 01:12:40.560
an opportunity to have a sniff around her house and

975
01:12:41.399 --> 01:12:45.439
go into the garden and he loved it. And he

976
01:12:45.479 --> 01:12:49.199
gets on really well with with his friend, the other dog,

977
01:12:50.000 --> 01:12:53.439
and they got on really well. And she she said,

978
01:12:53.439 --> 01:12:56.000
that's not always a case. Sometimes a dog walks when

979
01:12:56.239 --> 01:13:00.520
they say when they're walking, but when they're together, like

980
01:13:02.399 --> 01:13:04.199
they don't always get on very well with the dog,

981
01:13:04.319 --> 01:13:07.640
not him and her, but you know sometimes the other dogs.

982
01:13:08.720 --> 01:13:11.319
Her dog doesn't like the other dog being in her house,

983
01:13:12.000 --> 01:13:20.239
but she's seemed fine with any So yeah, it's I

984
01:13:20.279 --> 01:13:24.720
think there was a period once Andre was gone that

985
01:13:25.479 --> 01:13:28.680
I wasn't out. I wasn't going out because I was

986
01:13:29.039 --> 01:13:31.560
I didn't have to take Andre out for walks because

987
01:13:31.800 --> 01:13:35.000
you know, basically he didn't need to. I just took

988
01:13:35.079 --> 01:13:38.600
him out firstly because I wanted to, and when he

989
01:13:38.680 --> 01:13:41.479
wanted to. So it was a mixture of both. He

990
01:13:41.560 --> 01:13:45.680
loved going out or weather, didn't care. I wasn't a

991
01:13:45.680 --> 01:13:50.239
big fan of the rain or the wind, but didn't

992
01:13:50.239 --> 01:13:54.000
care about snow, didn't care the heat. He did get

993
01:13:54.119 --> 01:13:57.479
very hot. But big thing about it is if he

994
01:13:57.560 --> 01:14:00.880
got if he got tired, he just him up and

995
01:14:01.479 --> 01:14:04.199
he'd go into my jacket and just go to sleep.

996
01:14:05.439 --> 01:14:08.319
So what he would do, he'd walk. It'd walk me,

997
01:14:08.880 --> 01:14:12.279
says Under. He'd walk ahead of me and he'd lead

998
01:14:12.359 --> 01:14:15.880
me into the middle of nowhere in the fields as

999
01:14:16.000 --> 01:14:19.840
far away as he could get. And then he just

1000
01:14:19.880 --> 01:14:27.079
claps on the floor and say pick me up. So

1001
01:14:27.119 --> 01:14:30.520
I'd pick him up. Or he'd just stop and put

1002
01:14:30.560 --> 01:14:33.439
his put his hands against my legs for me to

1003
01:14:33.439 --> 01:14:37.880
pick him up, and I'd pick him up, and I

1004
01:14:37.880 --> 01:14:39.680
didn't have to ask him what he wanted because he

1005
01:14:39.680 --> 01:14:43.800
would literally climb into the top of my jacket and

1006
01:14:43.840 --> 01:14:46.560
that'll be it. Go to sleep, and a weird thing

1007
01:14:46.600 --> 01:14:51.039
about it, right, guaranteed. I mean, there was no point

1008
01:14:51.079 --> 01:14:53.439
in me caring on walking because it's going to take

1009
01:14:53.439 --> 01:14:57.640
me an hour to walk back. Bless him. Why he

1010
01:14:57.680 --> 01:15:00.600
didn't just let me walk back. He wouldn't. He had

1011
01:15:00.640 --> 01:15:05.479
to go as far away as possible, guaranteed. Just before

1012
01:15:05.520 --> 01:15:08.680
I got to the exit, you know, the original entrance.

1013
01:15:08.720 --> 01:15:12.239
When I was back nearly home, his head will pop up,

1014
01:15:12.560 --> 01:15:18.319
look around, and they want to get out. So when

1015
01:15:18.359 --> 01:15:21.039
we were five minutes away from home, his head would

1016
01:15:21.079 --> 01:15:30.279
pop up every single time. He's so funny, it's like

1017
01:15:30.479 --> 01:15:40.359
he knew he just knew strange. So, I don't know,

1018
01:15:40.439 --> 01:15:44.279
maybe like Liam Neeson in Taken Too, he could count

1019
01:15:44.319 --> 01:15:49.680
the steps, Maybe he knew the sounds from the different Yeah,

1020
01:15:49.960 --> 01:15:51.359
do you remember that bit where he's in the back

1021
01:15:51.399 --> 01:15:53.520
of the van or is it taken three I don't know,

1022
01:15:53.880 --> 01:16:01.359
or taken nine? So yeah, So it's been I think

1023
01:16:01.399 --> 01:16:04.920
that period between having Andrea and having Vinnie, where I

1024
01:16:04.960 --> 01:16:09.439
wasn't going out. I started walking around the same route

1025
01:16:09.479 --> 01:16:11.600
that I used to take andre sometimes, but it was

1026
01:16:13.600 --> 01:16:20.319
it wasn't the same being on my own. And then

1027
01:16:20.359 --> 01:16:25.239
when I got Vinnie, it's got me out of the house,

1028
01:16:27.039 --> 01:16:27.920
which is a good thing.

1029
01:16:27.960 --> 01:16:30.239
I don't enjoy it a lot.

1030
01:16:30.279 --> 01:16:32.800
Sometimes I don't want to go out. I don't want

1031
01:16:32.800 --> 01:16:34.039
to get out of bed, and I don't want to

1032
01:16:34.039 --> 01:16:37.600
go out in the rain and stuff. But I think

1033
01:16:37.680 --> 01:16:45.880
ultimately it's it's been good for me to have that movement,

1034
01:16:46.079 --> 01:16:55.600
to have that those fleeting conversations with humans that you know,

1035
01:16:55.720 --> 01:17:00.199
those small bits of interaction. It's probably useful. Maybe I'm

1036
01:17:00.239 --> 01:17:09.000
not sure, but he loves being outside. I think he'd

1037
01:17:09.000 --> 01:17:13.239
spend his whole day out there if he could. Really,

1038
01:17:13.279 --> 01:17:15.199
I don't think he'd want to come in. He'd come

1039
01:17:15.239 --> 01:17:17.159
in for a little sleep and then he'd go out again.

1040
01:17:17.720 --> 01:17:19.720
If I had a little cat flap which he could

1041
01:17:19.720 --> 01:17:23.960
fit through, I don't know. Maybe he'd need a little

1042
01:17:23.960 --> 01:17:27.199
bit bigger slightly, Yeah, he's probably a little bit too

1043
01:17:27.279 --> 01:17:31.560
big for a cat flap. I'm not sure. Actually, he

1044
01:17:31.600 --> 01:17:34.960
probably could fit through a big cat flap, but he would, Yeah,

1045
01:17:35.000 --> 01:17:37.439
he'd be in and out all day long. But also

1046
01:17:37.920 --> 01:17:42.600
if there was also dog flaps or cat flaps, vinnie

1047
01:17:42.600 --> 01:17:46.399
flaps in all the other doors in this building, he'd

1048
01:17:46.399 --> 01:17:48.279
be in and out of those doors, in and out

1049
01:17:48.319 --> 01:17:53.319
of those flats. And if you put them in all

1050
01:17:53.359 --> 01:17:57.680
the houses in the road, he'd be in and out

1051
01:17:57.720 --> 01:18:02.199
of all those houses. Seriously, everybody would know who he

1052
01:18:02.319 --> 01:18:05.039
is because it'd be in and out standing loads of

1053
01:18:05.039 --> 01:18:12.039
people begging for treats. It's a proper scrounger. And he

1054
01:18:12.079 --> 01:18:17.960
would be huge. He would be absolutely huge, And one

1055
01:18:18.039 --> 01:18:26.520
day he would get stuck in the cat flap. That's guaranteed. Ah,

1056
01:18:29.640 --> 01:18:33.319
I think I kind of stuck to the subject Monday's

1057
01:18:33.479 --> 01:18:39.720
boring objects dog walking, So I think I did so.

1058
01:18:39.840 --> 01:18:46.000
Right now it is, what's it call? Past eight pm?

1059
01:18:46.079 --> 01:18:50.960
I'm not sure if I'm going to edit this tonight.

1060
01:18:51.000 --> 01:18:53.880
I'll do it in the morning when I wake up.

1061
01:18:56.640 --> 01:18:59.359
I might do it tonight. I don't know. It's hard to.

1062
01:18:59.279 --> 01:18:59.960
Know, isn't it.

1063
01:19:02.640 --> 01:19:09.479
Hard to guess? Really? Really, so thank you for listening.

1064
01:19:09.720 --> 01:19:13.600
Remember to be kind to yourself because you do deserve

1065
01:19:14.479 --> 01:19:17.640
to be happy and be gentle. Of yourself, because you

1066
01:19:17.720 --> 01:19:30.319
also deserve to feel safe, lots of love. Bye little

1067
01:19:30.319 --> 01:19:33.239
flappy ears right at the end. What was that you

1068
01:19:33.239 --> 01:19:34.680
always know when I finished the record?

1069
01:19:34.720 --> 01:19:35.119
It, don't you?

1070
01:19:36.640 --> 01:19:40.319
Yes, because you say goodbye.

1071
01:19:43.479 --> 01:19:44.520
Relax.

1072
01:19:47.640 --> 01:19:58.199
In a more deep and meaningful way, maybe in a

1073
01:19:58.279 --> 01:20:05.800
way that can not just allow you to feel calmer

1074
01:20:06.960 --> 01:20:16.359
now and throughout the time we spend together here, not

1075
01:20:16.920 --> 01:20:22.880
just relaxed at the end of the recording when it's finished,

1076
01:20:22.920 --> 01:20:29.520
and you can enjoy that sense of comfort and peace,

1077
01:20:34.199 --> 01:20:47.039
but also I think it would be nice to have

1078
01:20:47.520 --> 01:21:04.560
those feelings of relaxation continue for longer after the recording

1079
01:21:04.600 --> 01:21:18.079
has ended, so that you can still benefit from listening

1080
01:21:18.960 --> 01:21:27.880
to my voice, maybe in a few hours time, perhaps tomorrow,

1081
01:21:33.920 --> 01:21:41.760
and then by listening regularly, especially if you find like

1082
01:21:41.880 --> 01:21:45.359
some people do and myself as well. I sometimes I

1083
01:21:45.479 --> 01:21:56.079
find one particular recording that really resonates with me, and

1084
01:21:56.119 --> 01:22:01.319
I just listen to it over and over again every morning,

1085
01:22:01.520 --> 01:22:14.079
every evening. There was this recording from We're going back

1086
01:22:14.119 --> 01:22:19.640
to about nineteen ninety nine. It wasn't hypnosis, but it

1087
01:22:19.720 --> 01:22:24.760
was a guided visualizations. It kind of was hypnosis, really,

1088
01:22:27.239 --> 01:22:32.439
and I managed to find it again and it still

1089
01:22:32.520 --> 01:22:38.119
has the same effect on me, and part of it

1090
01:22:38.279 --> 01:22:53.000
was the person's voice relaxed me, just felt so peaceful,

1091
01:22:55.119 --> 01:23:01.600
and I'd look forward to listening to her in the

1092
01:23:01.680 --> 01:23:12.399
morning and in the evening. And I knew before even

1093
01:23:13.119 --> 01:23:21.600
pressing the play button that since I've done that, pressed

1094
01:23:21.640 --> 01:23:30.840
the play button. This is in the days of CD players,

1095
01:23:33.800 --> 01:23:39.520
pressed the play button, ifact it might have even been

1096
01:23:39.560 --> 01:23:43.880
a tape tape recorder. I'd lie down on the bed

1097
01:23:44.119 --> 01:24:00.720
and then even without necessarily listening to her words because

1098
01:24:02.680 --> 01:24:09.840
I had to memorized. Really, it was as if my

1099
01:24:09.920 --> 01:24:21.319
body knew exactly what to do, and the muscles just

1100
01:24:25.279 --> 01:24:43.479
almost went into automatic relaxation, and I remember my mind

1101
01:24:45.920 --> 01:24:56.920
would slow down. Now. Now, I was listening to this

1102
01:24:57.000 --> 01:25:06.520
recording in the early days of learning hypnosis, and long

1103
01:25:06.600 --> 01:25:15.119
before I ever made any videos or audio recordings myself,

1104
01:25:16.359 --> 01:25:19.720
because I didn't start doing that till two thousand and six,

1105
01:25:26.640 --> 01:25:42.560
I knew, I knew how helpful I found being able

1106
01:25:42.600 --> 01:25:51.680
to just let go, to have that trust in the

1107
01:25:51.760 --> 01:26:02.159
person that I'm listening to, knowing that it's going to

1108
01:26:02.199 --> 01:26:13.039
be just as relaxing, if not more so. Each time

1109
01:26:13.279 --> 01:26:25.840
you hear my voice, you may feel the same. Some

1110
01:26:26.119 --> 01:26:40.399
people have been listening to me for over a decade.

1111
01:26:41.119 --> 01:26:45.159
Maybe not solidly, obviously not twenty four hours a day,

1112
01:26:46.880 --> 01:26:53.439
but maybe people come back. Some people may be listen

1113
01:26:53.520 --> 01:27:10.079
every day. That's something that I do which you may

1114
01:27:10.199 --> 01:27:31.159
not realize by listening, is when I record these recordings now.

1115
01:27:31.279 --> 01:27:43.800
For example, I also am affected by the words that

1116
01:27:43.920 --> 01:27:56.119
I say. So if I set you focus on your feet,

1117
01:27:58.640 --> 01:28:06.359
notice your feet relaxing, I will be focusing on my feet.

1118
01:28:11.279 --> 01:28:28.680
I will be noticing my feet relaxing. If I said,

1119
01:28:28.800 --> 01:28:36.479
focus on your hands, and maybe notice the difference between

1120
01:28:36.520 --> 01:28:46.760
each hand, Perhaps notice the the air in the room,

1121
01:28:47.279 --> 01:28:53.760
the temperature of the room. On the backs of your hands.

1122
01:29:00.159 --> 01:29:04.239
May start to notice what almost feels like a very

1123
01:29:04.359 --> 01:29:12.680
light breeze, even though there may not be any type

1124
01:29:12.720 --> 01:29:25.640
of breeze at all where you are right now. And

1125
01:29:25.720 --> 01:29:36.960
as you become aware of your hands, I'm also aware

1126
01:29:39.600 --> 01:30:05.039
of how relaxed my hands are feeling now. And when

1127
01:30:05.039 --> 01:30:12.000
it comes to potentially drifting off to sleep, which may

1128
01:30:12.079 --> 01:30:28.439
be the reason you're listening, I also feel drowsy when

1129
01:30:28.439 --> 01:30:41.680
I make these recordings. I also notice my mind drifting.

1130
01:30:49.560 --> 01:31:01.520
In fact, at times I've actually fallen asleep without even

1131
01:31:01.640 --> 01:31:15.640
noticing and then I carry on talking. And it's only

1132
01:31:15.880 --> 01:31:25.600
when I listen back to do the editing I hear snoring,

1133
01:31:27.479 --> 01:31:36.439
and I think, I don't remember snoring. I remember talking.

1134
01:31:37.600 --> 01:31:44.760
Is it snoring? Was a pick turned up? That's why

1135
01:31:44.760 --> 01:31:52.520
I sound like when I snare and I get really

1136
01:31:52.640 --> 01:32:06.119
into the whole experience. I don't know how you feel,

1137
01:32:12.319 --> 01:32:22.840
how relaxed you feel in your feet, how relaxed you

1138
01:32:23.039 --> 01:32:46.880
feel in your hands. I have noticed more and more

1139
01:32:50.199 --> 01:33:02.920
that the more relaxed, deeper level of color that you feel,

1140
01:33:06.520 --> 01:33:22.720
the easier your breathing becomes. It's almost like that additional

1141
01:33:25.840 --> 01:33:46.840
muscle relaxation. So this allows you to breathe easier without

1142
01:33:48.319 --> 01:34:19.199
necessarily focusing on your breath, however, being able to notice

1143
01:34:19.640 --> 01:34:49.399
the ease in which you breathe so naturally. You breathe

1144
01:34:49.960 --> 01:35:33.640
so very easily and smoothly. Whenever I imagine my breathing improving,

1145
01:35:39.359 --> 01:35:52.720
when I've got my eyes closed, I tend to visualize

1146
01:35:54.800 --> 01:35:56.520
a beautiful field.

1147
01:35:58.800 --> 01:36:00.319
With tree, some.

1148
01:36:00.439 --> 01:36:40.880
Flowers producing all that life giving oxygen. It feels nice too,

1149
01:36:42.479 --> 01:37:01.439
if nothing else, just taking some time away from everything,

1150
01:37:12.720 --> 01:37:45.279
enjoying that feeling of peace, serenity with a joyful heart.

1151
01:38:10.640 --> 01:38:36.119
Time seems to just drip by, so very slowly, relaxed,

1152
01:38:42.000 --> 01:39:21.159
so deeply, peaceful, completely unattached to any thoughts whatsoever in

1153
01:39:21.319 --> 01:40:33.039
this moment, completely free, noticing that your mind has slowed down.

1154
01:40:34.000 --> 01:41:20.720
Slowed down because nothing really requires your attention. You can

1155
01:41:20.960 --> 01:41:37.079
enjoy the physical sensations of allowing the stress to rip

1156
01:41:37.840 --> 01:41:51.800
out of your body, to appear out of every part

1157
01:41:57.640 --> 01:42:22.359
of your body being released from your brain, hung your

1158
01:42:22.479 --> 01:43:13.640
mind slowly but surely, the muscles in your legs relax

1159
01:43:18.600 --> 01:44:08.840
res really, so very deeply, res so deeply. And the feelings,

1160
01:44:11.439 --> 01:44:36.359
the pleasant feelings in your arms and shoulders, deepening each

1161
01:44:36.720 --> 01:45:14.720
part of your body further and deeper and deeper. Noticin

1162
01:45:18.039 --> 01:45:44.600
the feelings in the back of your neck, the feelings

1163
01:45:44.760 --> 01:46:33.640
in your wrists, muscles in front of your body. I

1164
01:46:33.840 --> 01:47:17.680
all say, feeling peaceful deeply, there's a sense of peace

1165
01:47:22.159 --> 01:48:02.119

01:50:59.439 --> 01:51:33.199
all of your back. You spy from your brain all

1170
01:51:33.239 --> 01:51:40.880
the way down the middle of your back, sending and

1171
01:51:41.359 --> 01:52:16.359
receiving millions of messages every day. Decome effat increasing deeply exed.

1172
01:52:46.479 --> 01:52:47.399
You means.

1173
01:53:12.800 --> 01:53:26.640
RELs spreading those signals down a spine or cord into air,

1174
01:53:26.880 --> 01:53:46.359
every part of your body, your shins and your calf, muscles,

01:54:13.560 --> 01:54:43.079
your elbows, Feelings of peace and tranquility spreading through your body,

1179
01:56:44.960 --> 01:57:42.920
let go, so tranquil, the whole body enjoying a sense

1180
01:58:07.680 --> 02:00:04.279
listening God he for more peace, for joy, the space,

1181
02:00:06.640 --> 02:02:18.920
this space of peace and safety, so fary, relaxed, letting go.

1182
02:02:36.840 --> 02:02:44.479
Maybe we can just focus on the different parts of

1183
02:02:44.560 --> 02:03:19.239
your body, just to notice a forehead and your eyes

1184
02:03:52.279 --> 02:04:38.760

1185

02:08:51.479 --> 02:09:39.199

02:10:26.760 --> 02:11:12.119

1190
02:11:37.000 --> 02:11:39.479
Peace with mind.

1191
02:11:48.800 --> 02:12:53.039
Rexed forday, so relaxed, so relaxed. Your body feels almost invisible,

1192
02:13:08.239 --> 02:14:28.760
so very relaxed. I'm peaceful, so peace relax, Liqua, and

1193
02:14:28.920 --> 02:14:36.199
you could start to notice that you are feeling more relaxed,

1194
02:14:39.199 --> 02:14:48.920
even though I've not purposely focused your mind upon that

1195
02:14:50.319 --> 02:14:56.359
sense of physical comfort that is growing within you throughout

1196
02:14:56.479 --> 02:15:09.279
your body, and your mind starts to slow down, and

1197
02:15:09.439 --> 02:15:16.920
that could be almost in recognition of I guess my

1198
02:15:17.159 --> 02:15:31.920
speech not being particularly fast and things just generally feel calmer.

1199
02:15:35.439 --> 02:15:43.399
Just by listening to my voice, you give yourself an

1200
02:15:43.479 --> 02:15:51.399
opportunity to take a break from the day, take a

1201
02:15:51.520 --> 02:15:59.159
break from your life as it is, and to give

1202
02:15:59.199 --> 02:16:07.640
yourself at giving yourself permission to take some time off

1203
02:16:09.920 --> 02:16:15.279
and to allow your body to relax and allow your

1204
02:16:15.439 --> 02:16:26.039
mind to slow down, which in turn releases the tension

1205
02:16:27.479 --> 02:16:36.200
and he stresses that you had in your body. It's

1206
02:16:36.280 --> 02:16:40.799
almost as if the parts of your body just open up,

1207
02:16:42.159 --> 02:16:53.760
allowing the negativity out and at the same time replacing

1208
02:16:54.639 --> 02:17:04.159
that negativity with positive heathing energy, which then fills your

1209
02:17:04.239 --> 02:17:16.040
body up and your mind to also starts to appreciate

1210
02:17:16.959 --> 02:17:32.920
those feelings of increasing confidence, an almost uplifting feeling, positive

1211
02:17:34.879 --> 02:17:46.520
healing an energy that spreads through your body like a

1212
02:17:46.719 --> 02:18:00.840
wave of comfort. And all this comes from just allowing

1213
02:18:00.920 --> 02:18:09.399
yourself a few minutes, maybe half an hour, however long

1214
02:18:09.520 --> 02:18:19.479
you want it to be, to just rest and allow

1215
02:18:22.040 --> 02:18:32.040
your mind and your body to almost reset itself to

1216
02:18:32.719 --> 02:18:48.360
the settings of comfort and relaxation, calmness, which allows more

1217
02:18:48.520 --> 02:19:01.879
room for feelings of pleasure and happiness to move around

1218
02:19:02.200 --> 02:19:10.399
your body and into your mind, almost as if your

1219
02:19:10.520 --> 02:19:21.040
mind and your body are sinking together, almost mirroring each

1220
02:19:21.319 --> 02:19:34.639
other with that growing positivity and calmness, And it feels nice.

1221
02:19:37.040 --> 02:19:43.079
It really does feel nice to know that you are

1222
02:19:43.079 --> 02:19:53.280
the one that has allowed yourself to feel more comfort

1223
02:19:56.520 --> 02:19:59.399
and to experience.

1224
02:20:01.120 --> 02:20:02.280
More of this.

1225
02:20:04.040 --> 02:20:19.200
Deep relaxation spreading throughout your body. And as I focus

1226
02:20:20.760 --> 02:20:26.520
on each part of your body, you can notice that

1227
02:20:26.760 --> 02:20:41.280
that part becomes even more relaxed just by focusing on it.

1228
02:20:43.840 --> 02:20:53.479
It becomes even more calm and comfortable just by focusing.

1229
02:20:57.520 --> 02:21:03.280
And as I move down your body, starting at your head,

1230
02:21:06.000 --> 02:21:12.680
the parts that you've already focused on will continue to

1231
02:21:12.879 --> 02:21:20.520
relax deeply, and those parts that we've not yet focused

1232
02:21:20.559 --> 02:21:33.879
on or just automatically release any remaining tension in anticipation

1233
02:21:34.319 --> 02:21:47.360
of even more comfort about to come. Now, I'm going

1234
02:21:47.440 --> 02:21:54.319
to start by focusing on your forehead. Just being aware

1235
02:21:54.959 --> 02:22:05.079
the feelings of your forehead and any background sounds like

1236
02:22:05.280 --> 02:22:10.360
mister Herbert the Pigeon can just allow you to feel

1237
02:22:10.479 --> 02:22:20.479
even more relaxed. Just means you're in the moment. This

1238
02:22:20.639 --> 02:22:25.799
isn't this isn't a sterile environment. This is the world.

1239
02:22:29.239 --> 02:22:35.280
I live in the countryside, so there's lots of nature

1240
02:22:35.799 --> 02:22:46.280
sounds around. So as you focus on your forehead, just

1241
02:22:46.559 --> 02:22:54.319
notice how it becomes even more relaxed as you focus

1242
02:22:56.639 --> 02:23:01.120
only on my voice and that part of your body.

1243
02:23:06.319 --> 02:23:14.600
Moving down to your eyes, focusing on your eyes, noticing

1244
02:23:17.079 --> 02:23:26.760
how your eyelids feel so heavy yet so light at

1245
02:23:26.840 --> 02:23:33.280
the same time, and all the muscles around your eyes

1246
02:23:33.520 --> 02:23:47.959
relaxing completely. Moving your focus down to your mouth, your lips,

1247
02:23:48.440 --> 02:23:55.040
your tongue, your teeth, and your gums, the whole of

1248
02:23:55.200 --> 02:24:10.000
your mouth relaxing, calm and lease. As you focus now

1249
02:24:10.799 --> 02:24:17.680
on your jaw, not just the parts of your jaw

1250
02:24:17.840 --> 02:24:22.239
near your mouth and your chin, but all the way

1251
02:24:22.319 --> 02:24:28.719
up the size of your face to your ears, that

1252
02:24:28.959 --> 02:24:53.440
hole of your jaw, feeding more relaxed and calm, focusing

1253
02:24:56.959 --> 02:25:02.079
on your neck, the front of your neck and your

1254
02:25:02.239 --> 02:25:15.520
throat relaxing and loose and calm. The side of your neck,

1255
02:25:17.600 --> 02:25:24.559
the right and left side of your neck relax and

1256
02:25:26.079 --> 02:25:39.719
loose and calm. And now the back of your neck,

1257
02:25:43.000 --> 02:25:53.040
focusing on the back of your neck, letting go of

1258
02:25:53.239 --> 02:25:59.840
any tension that may have been there before, and enjoy

1259
02:26:00.159 --> 02:26:13.079
in that sense of increasing comfort and release that you

1260
02:26:13.239 --> 02:26:24.000
can experience in the back of your neck. Moving down

1261
02:26:24.479 --> 02:26:31.760
your back and moving either side of your spine right

1262
02:26:31.879 --> 02:26:36.799
from the top of your back all the way down

1263
02:26:37.479 --> 02:26:49.879
to the bottom of your back down to your lower back.

1264
02:26:54.959 --> 02:27:01.959
And as you move up and down your spine, you

1265
02:27:02.079 --> 02:27:09.200
can feel the muscles either side of your spine relaxing

1266
02:27:09.920 --> 02:27:23.280
even more. And as those muscles relax, that sense of

1267
02:27:23.559 --> 02:27:34.200
comfort starts to spread outwards from your spine into both

1268
02:27:34.440 --> 02:27:41.479
sides of your back, the top of your back, the

1269
02:27:41.680 --> 02:27:50.000
middle and your lower back. And as you scan gently

1270
02:27:50.559 --> 02:27:57.920
and slowly up and down your back, there's the muscles

1271
02:27:58.079 --> 02:28:03.200
in the top of your back relax and become looser.

1272
02:28:07.520 --> 02:28:13.520
The muscles in the middle of your back also seem

1273
02:28:13.639 --> 02:28:23.159
to just almost divide from each other, separating and almost melting,

1274
02:28:28.920 --> 02:28:34.920
and in your lower back. There seems to be an

1275
02:28:34.959 --> 02:28:49.159
extra special feeling of comfort. The spreads into your hips,

1276
02:28:51.479 --> 02:28:59.280
so down your lower back, into your hips, into the

1277
02:28:59.479 --> 02:29:08.239
area where your cocksticks are, and into your buttocks, and

1278
02:29:08.360 --> 02:29:17.559
all those muscles that spread from your lower back into

1279
02:29:17.600 --> 02:29:31.079
your hip area start to melt, start to really let go.

1280
02:29:37.639 --> 02:29:42.639
I don't even know where about. To focus on your shoulders.

1281
02:29:44.360 --> 02:29:51.360
Your back and your spine will continue to let go,

1282
02:29:54.440 --> 02:30:10.040
continue to relax so calmly, and as you focus on

1283
02:30:10.200 --> 02:30:23.120
your shoulders, you may notice that they're already feeding really loose,

1284
02:30:27.920 --> 02:30:54.319
they're already feeding calm and feeling. Those muscles then move

1285
02:30:54.760 --> 02:31:10.559
from your neck into your shoulders feel so soft and gentle,

1286
02:31:14.680 --> 02:31:36.239
so smooth and calm, and the feeling in your shoulders

1287
02:31:43.600 --> 02:31:51.040
seens to spread deep into your shoulders, that sense of

1288
02:31:51.200 --> 02:32:03.680
relaxation not just traveling deeply into your muscles, but also

1289
02:32:04.079 --> 02:32:16.920
relaxing the bones and moving all the way to underneath

1290
02:32:16.959 --> 02:32:25.440
your arms, relaxing that whole area between the tops of

1291
02:32:25.559 --> 02:32:34.000
your shoulders and underneath your arms healing.

1292
02:32:39.440 --> 02:32:40.079
You feel so.

1293
02:32:42.040 --> 02:32:56.079
Relaxed and comfortable in your shoulders, which sends that deep

1294
02:32:56.920 --> 02:33:17.760
healing message into your arms, and you may feel almost

1295
02:33:17.920 --> 02:33:22.680
as if your arms are not even there because they're

1296
02:33:23.200 --> 02:34:06.159
so relaxed, so deeply relaxed, so so calm, so loose,

1297
02:34:13.520 --> 02:34:24.680
not feeling spreading all the way down your arms, two elbows,

1298
02:34:28.479 --> 02:34:44.879
including your elbows circumforts spreads.

1299
02:34:49.159 --> 02:34:49.879
Or away.

1300
02:34:52.280 --> 02:35:07.280
Into wrists, your forearments and your wrists y being so heavy,

1301
02:35:10.920 --> 02:35:14.239
yet at the same time.

1302
02:35:21.600 --> 02:35:22.360
So light.

1303
02:35:25.399 --> 02:36:28.360
And gentle. Focus Now on your hands, my hands, so

1304
02:36:29.760 --> 02:36:57.879
peaceful in your hands, there's a sense of real peace.

1305
02:37:09.639 --> 02:37:10.879
It just seems to.

1306
02:37:14.840 --> 02:37:15.760
I feel.

1307
02:37:17.719 --> 02:37:54.440
So familiar when your hands relax deeply ees your things.

1308
02:38:26.559 --> 02:39:31.520
You thing this sadly, you think your tips, moving your

1309
02:39:31.600 --> 02:40:01.040
attention to the front of your body, so comfortable, moving

1310
02:40:01.120 --> 02:41:25.959
in your focus. You your legs, h love muscles.

1311
02:41:27.479 --> 02:41:46.319
In your thighs, your knees.

1312
02:41:49.959 --> 02:43:20.360
So relaxed, a carved mussels and just shains compresly four

1313
02:44:26.799 --> 02:44:41.520
and the faathing and your feet so peaceful, so calm,

1314
02:44:47.280 --> 02:45:32.799
so peaceful, so calm, so peaceful, so calm.

1315
02:45:36.840 --> 02:45:36.920
So.

1316
02:45:38.879 --> 02:45:40.079
Peace for.

1317
02:45:48.879 --> 02:45:50.680
Re sin.

1318
02:45:55.799 --> 02:46:14.959
Peace for so calm, allowing that deep relaxation to spread

1319
02:46:15.319 --> 02:46:21.399
your chest, in your stomach, so.

1320
02:46:30.680 --> 02:46:36.440
Letting go of everything.

1321
02:46:47.680 --> 02:46:53.680
So I'm gonna start counting down now, from twenty down

1322
02:46:53.760 --> 02:47:01.840
to one. You can imagine in a way, it's like

1323
02:47:02.680 --> 02:47:09.120
just walking down some steps and each step or twenty steps,

1324
02:47:09.200 --> 02:47:18.319
and each step represents a level of comfort. Each step

1325
02:47:18.840 --> 02:47:34.399
represents a deepening of that comfort, and the fervies you

1326
02:47:34.559 --> 02:47:40.559
walk down those steps, the deeper and more relaxed you feel.

1327
02:47:47.319 --> 02:50:22.239
So starting with number twenty twenty nineteen, eighteen, seventeen sixstein

1328
02:51:37.719 --> 02:58:46.760
three four four s too well five eight nine eight

1329
02:59:46.520 --> 03:01:24.479
seven four.

1330
03:02:39.440 --> 03:08:27.520
Five fourt one And now.

1331
03:08:31.920 --> 03:08:44.639
As you focus on your eyes, we're gonna count down

1332
03:08:45.040 --> 03:09:00.799
from ten touts one, focusing just on your eyes, eyelids,

1333
03:09:01.239 --> 03:09:10.040
the muscles around your eyes, your eye walls themselves, our

1334
03:09:10.200 --> 03:09:27.079
whole area that makes up your eye. And as we

1335
03:09:27.319 --> 03:09:35.600
count down from ten down to one, whilst focus in

1336
03:09:35.840 --> 03:09:51.200
on your eyes, you'll become twice is relaxed with each

1337
03:09:51.639 --> 03:10:04.120
number counting down, and you may find the all you

1338
03:10:04.399 --> 03:10:13.200
want to do is just drift off to sleep. And

1339
03:10:13.399 --> 03:10:19.959
if that's what you want, then just allow yourself to

1340
03:10:20.079 --> 03:10:34.680
do that. Now, focusing on your eyes, I'm going to

1341
03:10:34.840 --> 03:10:40.159
begin counting down from ten down to one.

1342
03:10:44.120 --> 03:10:53.760
Right now, ten.

1343
03:11:19.680 --> 03:13:48.159
Nine eight seven four.

1344
03:14:52.079 --> 03:17:04.840
Five four.

1345
03:17:16.719 --> 03:20:07.760
Three two one two. Counting down from ten to one

1346
03:20:09.799 --> 03:20:34.079
ten nine eight seven six five four three two one,

1347
03:20:41.120 --> 03:20:44.000
And maybe that was a bit too quick in order

1348
03:20:44.079 --> 03:20:48.000
to relax. Maybe it's a bit too fast for you

1349
03:20:48.360 --> 03:20:58.040
to notice the calming of your body, maybe even a

1350
03:20:58.079 --> 03:21:01.920
little bit of pressure there, Like you're counting down from

1351
03:21:02.000 --> 03:21:04.680
ten to one. Would you expect me to do man,

1352
03:21:05.600 --> 03:21:10.159
expect me to stick gold floppy just because you're counting down.

1353
03:21:15.760 --> 03:21:19.040
We could try it again, but this time I go

1354
03:21:19.200 --> 03:21:26.559
this slower. This time, as you focus on the whole

1355
03:21:26.680 --> 03:21:32.920
of your body before we focus on your legs. Just

1356
03:21:33.159 --> 03:21:43.159
notice how your body does start to feel more relaxed

1357
03:21:47.920 --> 03:22:42.159
with every number that I count down ten nine, eight, seven, six, five, four,

1358
03:22:49.600 --> 03:23:41.079
three two one, And just notice how how you feel generally,

1359
03:23:41.479 --> 03:23:55.799
how your body feels. It's not necessarily even about counting

1360
03:23:55.959 --> 03:24:03.040
down from ten to one. It's that space that you have,

1361
03:24:04.399 --> 03:24:22.840
that space between being active physically or mentally to just

1362
03:24:27.600 --> 03:24:32.760
sitting or lying down and just being there, not doing anything,

1363
03:24:32.959 --> 03:24:39.559
not saying anything, or needing to think about anything. So

1364
03:24:40.280 --> 03:24:43.280
it opens up a space, you know, a bit of

1365
03:24:43.360 --> 03:24:54.319
a space, a gap. And the more I comed down

1366
03:24:54.399 --> 03:25:01.760
from ten to one, the bigger that gap becomes. So

1367
03:25:01.879 --> 03:25:14.319
there's that gap of calmness, of comfort, relaxation. It's a

1368
03:25:14.440 --> 03:25:15.399
nice feeling.

1369
03:25:20.639 --> 03:25:21.959
And it moves.

1370
03:25:23.120 --> 03:25:33.040
Those stresses or discomforts physically or emotionally, moves them away,

1371
03:25:39.840 --> 03:25:40.799
allows you.

1372
03:25:43.479 --> 03:25:44.040
To just.

1373
03:25:47.000 --> 03:25:53.319
Slow down. So ione to count again from ten down

1374
03:25:53.360 --> 03:26:03.360
to one, and notice that gap widening, the gap, And

1375
03:26:03.479 --> 03:26:08.479
as it widens, it's almost like the stress and attention

1376
03:26:09.319 --> 03:26:28.440
falls into the gap and gives you that distance, that space.

1377
03:26:30.799 --> 03:26:36.280
Now ten.

1378
03:26:40.600 --> 03:27:32.000
Nine, eight, seven, six, five, four.

1379
03:27:50.079 --> 03:28:07.079
Three two.

1380
03:28:25.319 --> 03:28:41.239
One. Now, how does your body feel?

1381
03:28:43.440 --> 03:28:43.639
Now?

1382
03:28:56.360 --> 03:29:09.440
Can you notice the do you feeling calm, mh, the feeling.

1383
03:29:11.360 --> 03:29:13.200
More relaxed.

1384
03:29:35.079 --> 03:29:39.440
As we now focus on your legs, just your legs.

1385
03:29:55.440 --> 03:30:15.559
We're just gonna start with focusing on your thought. Of course,

1386
03:30:15.719 --> 03:30:20.600
it's not the most exciting thing to be doing because

1387
03:30:24.040 --> 03:30:26.559
I'm sure, like most of your body, there is not

1388
03:30:26.639 --> 03:30:38.799
a lot going on right now. Just focusing on the

1389
03:30:38.959 --> 03:30:45.000
whole of your thighs, the tops of your thighs, the

1390
03:30:45.319 --> 03:30:51.959
sides of your thighs, the bottoms of your thighs, your

1391
03:30:52.079 --> 03:30:57.360
outer thighs, and your inner thighs. Basically the whole of

1392
03:30:57.440 --> 03:31:05.239
your thigh that leads into your hip and it goes

1393
03:31:06.280 --> 03:31:16.360
down to your knee joints. Now, this is a big area.

1394
03:31:20.879 --> 03:31:25.799
It's a very heavy area. It's very strong, probably the

1395
03:31:25.920 --> 03:31:40.600
strongest muscles in your body or in your thighs. But

1396
03:31:40.680 --> 03:31:49.079
I don't think we perhaps give enough attention to our thighs.

1397
03:31:55.040 --> 03:32:02.639
Perhaps we don't acknowledge how important and our thighs are

1398
03:32:05.760 --> 03:32:22.520
to our lives, how much they actually do for us

1399
03:32:26.440 --> 03:32:36.479
all for our lives. And it may seem to sound

1400
03:32:36.559 --> 03:32:42.200
really weird, but I think that all of our body parts,

1401
03:32:45.120 --> 03:32:53.360
especially our thighs, need some TLC, a bit of love shown,

1402
03:32:54.360 --> 03:33:02.159
a bit of acknowledgement.

1403
03:33:04.680 --> 03:33:05.280
I thank you.

1404
03:33:08.399 --> 03:33:20.719
Gratitude for what our thighs do for us. And I

1405
03:33:20.879 --> 03:33:26.559
know this may sound a bit strange. Maybe you think,

1406
03:33:27.000 --> 03:33:29.360
why am I surely how I should be out in

1407
03:33:29.879 --> 03:33:38.440
the garden hugging a tree or something. Well, it's hard

1408
03:33:38.479 --> 03:33:41.600
to set a microphone up on a tree. That's why

1409
03:33:41.639 --> 03:33:44.319
I'm doing this indoors. Otherwise I would be outside hugging

1410
03:33:44.360 --> 03:33:47.840
a tree. Now I can't see the television from the tree.

1411
03:33:54.559 --> 03:33:58.799
If you move down to your knees gaining such an

1412
03:33:58.879 --> 03:34:08.239
important part art, and I think we don't necessarily I'll

1413
03:34:08.319 --> 03:34:15.799
speak for myself here, I don't necessarily appreciate all that

1414
03:34:15.959 --> 03:34:21.239
my needs do for me until I have a problem

1415
03:34:21.319 --> 03:34:26.120
with my knee. It's occasionally if I ever maybe i'll

1416
03:34:26.159 --> 03:34:32.040
bash it, or it's aching for some reason. It's then

1417
03:34:32.520 --> 03:34:37.719
that I realize how much it does. You know, the

1418
03:34:37.840 --> 03:34:45.600
benefit of being able to use my legs without any

1419
03:34:45.719 --> 03:34:53.319
kind of physical discomfort is a beautiful thing that's possibly

1420
03:34:53.520 --> 03:35:05.639
not appreciated until it's temporarily removed. That's comfort. But as

1421
03:35:05.639 --> 03:35:11.000
you focus on your knees, regardless of how your knees feel,

1422
03:35:14.120 --> 03:35:19.840
you can have that sense of gratitude and love to

1423
03:35:19.959 --> 03:35:32.559
your knees for all that they do for you. And

1424
03:35:32.719 --> 03:35:36.360
you can still have that attention on your thighs and

1425
03:35:36.479 --> 03:35:42.680
maybe notice how your thighs feel. Maybe you've noticed that

1426
03:35:43.000 --> 03:36:01.719
they are relaxing more deeply as you focus now on

1427
03:36:01.840 --> 03:36:05.760
the bottoms of your legs, your shins and your calf

1428
03:36:05.879 --> 03:36:14.440
muscles and the bones between your knees and your feet incorporate,

1429
03:36:14.520 --> 03:36:25.319
and of course your ankles so important. You know, anyone

1430
03:36:25.399 --> 03:36:31.639
that's had even the slightest sprain of an ankle knows

1431
03:36:31.959 --> 03:36:43.879
how how much we take our ankles for granted. And

1432
03:36:44.000 --> 03:36:46.280
it's kind of strange in a way when you think that.

1433
03:36:48.840 --> 03:36:52.799
You know, logically, our wrists are a lot thinner than

1434
03:36:52.920 --> 03:36:57.040
the rest of our arms, which is okay, it doesn't

1435
03:36:57.680 --> 03:37:01.040
can't see any problem with that because we're just picking

1436
03:37:01.120 --> 03:37:08.479
stuff up. But our ankles so much thinner than the

1437
03:37:08.520 --> 03:37:18.799
rest of our legs, and from a physics perspective or

1438
03:37:18.959 --> 03:37:23.120
logical even it doesn't really make sense that all this

1439
03:37:23.399 --> 03:37:32.200
weight would ultimately be resting on your ankles then leading

1440
03:37:32.239 --> 03:37:45.159
to your feet, that thin area, thin bone. Yeah, it

1441
03:37:45.360 --> 03:37:51.239
does so much great work. Supports us, supports our body

1442
03:37:52.520 --> 03:38:02.959
for a lifetime, helps us to balance, It helps.

1443
03:38:02.760 --> 03:38:03.040
You to.

1444
03:38:07.000 --> 03:38:16.280
Get around and be mobile. And there's the calf muscles.

1445
03:38:16.319 --> 03:38:23.920
Of course, when I was younger, I couldn't see the

1446
03:38:24.000 --> 03:38:29.079
point in calf muscles. I didn't seem to do anything. Okay,

1447
03:38:30.200 --> 03:38:33.719
if I walked around on tiptoes, then my calf muscles

1448
03:38:33.760 --> 03:38:37.280
get some work. But of course that's not true. The

1449
03:38:37.399 --> 03:38:41.799
calf muscles are being used whenever we use our legs

1450
03:38:47.399 --> 03:38:59.920
and your shins there to protect your lower legs shape

1451
03:39:00.079 --> 03:39:04.799
in a way, almost as a protector for the bone,

1452
03:39:12.360 --> 03:39:16.040
leading of course to your ankles.

1453
03:39:18.840 --> 03:39:19.559
And your feet.

1454
03:39:24.239 --> 03:39:26.200
But we're not going to focus on your feet. We're

1455
03:39:26.239 --> 03:39:32.479
just going to focus on the legs. I realize that

1456
03:39:32.639 --> 03:39:36.680
now that I've mentioned your feet, it probably focuses on

1457
03:39:36.799 --> 03:39:40.000
them anyway, So maybe I should focus on your feet

1458
03:39:40.040 --> 03:39:46.159
a little bit. You can have them in your awareness

1459
03:39:48.360 --> 03:39:52.040
the same as you have your thighs in your awareness.

1460
03:39:52.879 --> 03:39:56.760
Even though we haven't been focusing on your thighs a

1461
03:39:56.920 --> 03:40:08.000
few minutes, let me focus on your ankles. There's still

1462
03:40:08.079 --> 03:40:23.159
that sensation of comfort in your thighs, and there's that

1463
03:40:23.600 --> 03:40:33.639
movement of energy because the thighs hold lots of different sensations.

1464
03:40:35.079 --> 03:40:39.959
Of course, there's the muscles, the big straw muscles that

1465
03:40:40.079 --> 03:40:52.920
we have in our thighs. But the skin on the

1466
03:40:53.079 --> 03:40:58.520
outside of the thighs, as in the outside of all

1467
03:40:58.639 --> 03:41:07.440
of our body, can be very sensitive, sensitive to the touch,

1468
03:41:10.239 --> 03:41:23.559
sensitive to temperature, and inside your thighs the bones, there's

1469
03:41:24.600 --> 03:41:29.760
the muscle, there's the blood, vessels, the arch trees, all

1470
03:41:29.920 --> 03:41:38.200
this stuff that's inside your thighs. And I guess sometimes

1471
03:41:39.079 --> 03:41:41.600
it'd be nice if you could actually put your fingers

1472
03:41:42.840 --> 03:41:48.879
inside your thighs and a message, so you can message

1473
03:41:48.920 --> 03:41:52.040
on the outside, of course, but to be able to

1474
03:41:52.120 --> 03:41:55.280
get deep into the muscles and to be able to

1475
03:41:55.440 --> 03:42:02.319
just message inside your thighs, message the bones of your leg,

1476
03:42:04.520 --> 03:42:14.360
massage in all the veins and just gently heathing your thighs,

1477
03:42:18.280 --> 03:42:25.040
and you could move down, massage inside your knees, just

1478
03:42:25.239 --> 03:42:31.959
message in those bones, but with healing fingertips, spreading that

1479
03:42:32.360 --> 03:42:43.520
healing energy deep into the joints of your knees. Of course,

1480
03:42:43.600 --> 03:42:46.920
there's the back of your your knee, you know, the

1481
03:42:47.079 --> 03:42:54.079
inside crease where your knee is. It's a very sensitive area.

1482
03:42:56.079 --> 03:43:00.399
Very it feels very nice when you stroke it. That

1483
03:43:00.600 --> 03:43:04.280
might be because it's an area that's not really touched

1484
03:43:04.479 --> 03:43:11.440
very often. It's almost like a hidden part, that crease.

1485
03:43:13.200 --> 03:43:13.879
In your legs.

1486
03:43:14.000 --> 03:43:21.040
It's almost it's like a part that has a sensitivity,

1487
03:43:21.120 --> 03:43:31.559
which is a little bit different. Of course, it's protected

1488
03:43:31.680 --> 03:43:42.879
by your legs. So you can imagine putting your fingers

1489
03:43:43.079 --> 03:43:52.479
into that crease in your legs, that fold in between

1490
03:43:52.559 --> 03:43:56.040
your legs. You can just mess out with your fingertips.

1491
03:43:57.239 --> 03:44:04.040
Imagine your fingertips going inside, massage in the muscle tissue

1492
03:44:08.639 --> 03:44:14.799
you can cause field the bones of your knees, healing

1493
03:44:15.040 --> 03:44:27.760
through your fingertips. And then as you go down to

1494
03:44:27.840 --> 03:44:30.639
your calf muscles. Now that's the part I'd like to

1495
03:44:30.680 --> 03:44:36.079
be able to really put my fingertips deep inside my

1496
03:44:36.280 --> 03:44:45.000
calf muscles, massage in every single tissue of that muscle,

1497
03:44:46.600 --> 03:44:56.520
healing every part, and then doing the same for my shins,

1498
03:44:59.600 --> 03:45:06.600
mess bargin and gently stroking the bones, gently stroking them,

1499
03:45:07.479 --> 03:45:11.639
healing in a loving way, because they deserve to be

1500
03:45:11.799 --> 03:45:19.040
treated as the precious bones that they are. Because our

1501
03:45:19.120 --> 03:45:22.680
legs are so precious as in all the other parts

1502
03:45:22.760 --> 03:45:30.399
of our body, and more precious of any jure on

1503
03:45:30.520 --> 03:45:46.840
the planet. When you start to think about your legs

1504
03:45:47.000 --> 03:45:58.120
in this way, it can change your perspective. It might

1505
03:45:58.280 --> 03:46:04.879
sound a bit a bit silly to start with the

1506
03:46:05.079 --> 03:46:13.239
idea of having love for your legs, showing appreciation for

1507
03:46:13.360 --> 03:46:19.399
your thighs, wanting to be able to put your hands

1508
03:46:20.360 --> 03:46:27.200
in your thighs and massage the muscles and the bones,

1509
03:46:29.120 --> 03:46:34.799
and to get your fingers deep in there, releasing all tension,

1510
03:46:37.680 --> 03:46:46.280
just to show how much you care about your legs,

1511
03:46:47.200 --> 03:46:50.920
how much you care for what your legs do for

1512
03:46:51.079 --> 03:47:04.680
you regularly, your knees, your calves, your ankles, the strength

1513
03:47:04.840 --> 03:47:12.879
of your ankles, considering how thin they are compared to

1514
03:47:13.000 --> 03:47:19.719
the rest of your legs, especially your thighs. Yeah, they're

1515
03:47:19.879 --> 03:47:32.120
so strong, so flexible, absolutely amazing things. Your ankles are

1516
03:47:36.000 --> 03:47:41.079
truly a gift because of what they do for you,

1517
03:47:46.559 --> 03:47:53.479
supporting all that weight regardless of how what weight you are,

1518
03:47:54.680 --> 03:47:59.440
even if you only ate stone, there's still a lot

1519
03:47:59.479 --> 03:48:06.159
of weight for these little ankles. Now I'm a lot

1520
03:48:06.399 --> 03:48:13.600
heavier than eight snow double down, yet.

1521
03:48:13.479 --> 03:48:18.280
My ankles support my body all the time.

1522
03:48:22.079 --> 03:48:25.000
Orthough they do give off a sigh of relief when

1523
03:48:25.079 --> 03:48:30.120
I sit down, as I've got my whole legs do

1524
03:48:33.840 --> 03:48:40.639
my feet feet also go and my toes clap. I'm

1525
03:48:40.680 --> 03:49:09.120
so happy. Your legs really are amazing. And I know

1526
03:49:09.600 --> 03:49:16.479
that about talking about your legs is probably possibly among

1527
03:49:16.600 --> 03:49:20.920
the most most boring things you've ever heard anyone say.

1528
03:49:21.840 --> 03:49:29.280
Possibly or boring or not, everything I said is true.

1529
03:49:31.719 --> 03:49:46.600
Your legs are amazing. Your legs deserve not just respect,

1530
03:49:52.440 --> 03:49:54.159
They deserve to relax.

1531
03:49:55.559 --> 03:49:55.959
Deeply.

1532
03:50:03.239 --> 03:50:06.600
They deserve to take some time out of the day

1533
03:50:08.799 --> 03:50:37.520
to just let go completely. Your legs really can relax.

1534
03:50:45.159 --> 03:50:49.280
And because the legs are so such a most, you know,

1535
03:50:49.520 --> 03:50:55.440
very important part of your body. When you relax your legs,

1536
03:50:55.559 --> 03:51:02.799
the rest of your body also naturally follows in that

1537
03:51:06.520 --> 03:51:17.360
journey of comfort. I can feel it in my hips.

1538
03:51:18.760 --> 03:51:25.559
My hips feel really loose, and also in my lower

1539
03:51:25.680 --> 03:51:32.520
back as well. My lower back really feels it feels stretched,

1540
03:51:33.639 --> 03:51:36.680
even though I'm just sitting in a chair and there's

1541
03:51:36.799 --> 03:51:42.040
no stretching as far as I'm aware that I'm doing.

1542
03:51:43.079 --> 03:51:45.719
It's almost as if the muscles are just relaxed so

1543
03:51:45.959 --> 03:51:51.879
much that there is a natural stretch as the tension

1544
03:51:52.760 --> 03:52:14.040
has reduced a lot. And I'm now going to count

1545
03:52:14.120 --> 03:52:21.959
down from ten down to one, and you can continue

1546
03:52:23.840 --> 03:52:35.479
to fill wonderfully relaxed ten nine.

1547
03:52:38.319 --> 03:52:50.440
Eight seven six, five.

1548
03:52:54.719 --> 03:52:58.840
Four three.

1549
03:53:02.760 --> 03:53:02.959
Two.

1550
03:53:07.280 --> 03:53:14.239
Why relax?

1551
03:53:22.120 --> 03:53:25.959
So I'm just going to count down the fire down

1552
03:53:26.040 --> 03:53:30.479
to one. And as a countdown, if you just focus

1553
03:53:30.559 --> 03:53:38.479
on the numbers, just the numbers counting down, and notice

1554
03:53:39.399 --> 03:53:41.760
how you feel.

1555
03:53:44.120 --> 03:53:45.280
In this moment.

1556
03:53:46.719 --> 03:53:51.079
As you hear the numbers counting down, knowing that those

1557
03:53:51.280 --> 03:54:04.319
numbers counting down represent you feeling calmer, not just in

1558
03:54:04.399 --> 03:54:12.760
your body, but also relaxing your mind. I just notice

1559
03:54:12.840 --> 03:54:18.840
how you feel. There's nothing to do, there's nothing to say,

1560
03:54:19.520 --> 03:54:36.600
there's nothing to think about, starting with number five four

1561
03:54:46.120 --> 03:55:21.840
three two one. And as you notice the gradual letting

1562
03:55:22.000 --> 03:55:31.360
go the tension in your body, you may also begin

1563
03:55:31.680 --> 03:55:37.680
to notice and be aware of how your mind is

1564
03:55:38.719 --> 03:55:46.559
starting to slow down. This is just a natural thing

1565
03:55:47.079 --> 03:55:54.440
that happens. It's not really a special procedure. It's just

1566
03:55:54.639 --> 03:56:00.879
natural because as your body relaxes, your mind also starts

1567
03:56:00.920 --> 03:56:05.639
to relax, and the more your mind relaxes, the more

1568
03:56:05.680 --> 03:56:10.920
your body relaxes. It's just a continuous circle of relaxation.

1569
03:56:16.959 --> 03:56:25.479
And there's that calmness that comes from relative quietness. You know,

1570
03:56:25.639 --> 03:56:31.239
even even if there's background sounds either your side online,

1571
03:56:32.959 --> 03:56:38.840
it's still going to be quite calm. You know, you

1572
03:56:38.920 --> 03:56:43.600
haven't got the television on, there's no music in the

1573
03:56:43.639 --> 03:56:46.879
background unless you're listening to the recording. With music, of course,

1574
03:56:51.760 --> 03:56:53.920
you're very likely not going to be sitting in a

1575
03:56:54.040 --> 03:56:57.159
room with other people. Of course it might be, but

1576
03:56:58.440 --> 03:57:01.719
generally it's more ideal if you can do this on

1577
03:57:01.840 --> 03:57:13.159
your own, so no distractions, and when you stop thinking

1578
03:57:13.200 --> 03:57:30.399
about stuff, relaxation automatically rises. A sense of comfort starts

1579
03:57:30.440 --> 03:57:39.200
to grow, and without trying to build it up into

1580
03:57:39.319 --> 03:57:51.440
something fantastical or something magical, this is just a natural process,

1581
03:57:53.760 --> 03:58:04.479
something that's easy to accomplish. In fact, it's almost you know,

1582
03:58:04.600 --> 03:58:11.440
the sense of relaxing completely happens really when you put

1583
03:58:11.639 --> 03:58:15.479
no effort into it. It's not something that you can

1584
03:58:15.600 --> 03:58:27.200
really force. It's something that happens naturally and part of

1585
03:58:27.639 --> 03:58:36.399
the process of this recording and others is simply.

1586
03:58:37.719 --> 03:58:37.879
Two.

1587
03:58:39.479 --> 03:58:49.840
Allow you to take advantage of this space. This time,

1588
03:58:52.719 --> 03:59:03.719
it's just let go, to just be here, to be

1589
03:59:04.399 --> 03:59:17.799
in tune with how you feel, yet with the intention

1590
03:59:20.040 --> 03:59:31.479
of wanting to relax deeply and maybe even to fall asleep,

1591
03:59:32.639 --> 03:59:37.799
depending on what it is that you wish for yourself

1592
03:59:39.600 --> 03:59:54.639
in this moment. As we know, relaxing is the majority

1593
03:59:55.879 --> 04:00:00.360
of the process of falling asleep. The actual fallness sleep

1594
04:00:00.440 --> 04:00:07.200
part is the tiny bit at the end. The deeper

1595
04:00:08.520 --> 04:00:21.319
relaxed do you become, the easier you find yourself drifting.

1596
04:00:30.920 --> 04:00:37.520
You can also if you choose stay focused on my

1597
04:00:37.719 --> 04:01:05.719
voice and really enjoy the process of gradually relaxing each

1598
04:01:06.239 --> 04:01:32.799
muscle in your body effortlessly and just observing the sensation

1599
04:01:38.079 --> 04:01:53.760
of letting go completely. This time, I'm going to count

1600
04:01:53.799 --> 04:02:03.879
from six down to one, and you can notice your

1601
04:02:04.079 --> 04:02:14.399
mind calming down more with each number that you hear

1602
04:02:14.760 --> 04:03:56.319
me say, naturally, feeling calm and slow and peaceful sex five, four, three.

1603
04:04:34.079 --> 04:05:03.040
F one.

1604
04:05:24.159 --> 04:05:33.760
Being aware of how your mind has slowed right down,

1605
04:05:37.040 --> 04:06:00.399
sinking deeply into relaxation. And as you focus on your mind,

1606
04:06:00.719 --> 04:06:10.639
you may notice that there are some thoughts still there,

1607
04:06:13.239 --> 04:06:22.799
maybe some stubborn thoughts that for some reason perhaps need

1608
04:06:22.879 --> 04:06:38.079
your attention. That's what you can do is send love

1609
04:06:38.319 --> 04:06:51.959
to those thoughts. Sprinkle those thoughts with love, like all

1610
04:06:52.079 --> 04:06:57.719
petals from a flower. Just sprinkle it over them, petals

1611
04:06:57.799 --> 04:07:05.399
filled with love towards those thoughts, to let those thoughts.

1612
04:07:05.200 --> 04:07:05.600
Know that.

1613
04:07:07.840 --> 04:07:13.280
You're not abandoned in them. You just need them. You

1614
04:07:13.440 --> 04:07:24.959
require them to just calm down, slow down, quiet down

1615
04:07:28.840 --> 04:07:40.680
for now. So as you focus on those remaining thoughts.

1616
04:07:41.879 --> 04:07:45.959
As we count down this time from seven down to one,

1617
04:07:47.520 --> 04:08:01.600
with each number, just imagine sprinkling those flower petals of love, kindness,

1618
04:08:03.200 --> 04:08:15.040
gratitude over those thoughts, which will allow them to just

1619
04:08:16.479 --> 04:08:31.479
melt away and relax deeply. With every number, those thoughts

1620
04:08:31.639 --> 04:09:40.280
will become more and more relaxed, starting with number seven, six, five, four,

1621
04:10:06.200 --> 04:11:21.120
three two one. Yeah, And as you now notice how

1622
04:11:22.879 --> 04:11:42.520
relaxed you're feeling in your body, we're going to focus

1623
04:11:46.440 --> 04:11:56.079
on your hands, because the more relaxed your hands are,

1624
04:11:58.440 --> 04:12:19.399
the more relaxed body and mind are. And there's you

1625
04:12:19.639 --> 04:12:30.399
focus on your hands and your fingers. There's nothing needed

1626
04:12:30.639 --> 04:12:36.200
to be done. There's no clenching of fists or tents

1627
04:12:36.440 --> 04:12:47.239
in the fingers or anything like that. It's just noticing

1628
04:12:48.120 --> 04:13:15.680
and focusing on your hands, noticing the health feel because

1629
04:13:15.840 --> 04:13:27.120
the more relaxed your hands feel, the calmer your mind feels,

1630
04:13:29.040 --> 04:13:37.879
and the more comfort you feel throughout your body.

1631
04:13:43.879 --> 04:13:46.920
You may.

1632
04:13:49.239 --> 04:14:32.319
Have already noticed you're mind is starting to dress faim

1633
04:14:36.399 --> 04:14:51.040
just on your hands and fingers, allowing them to experience

1634
04:14:53.760 --> 04:15:02.000
a real deepening of that relaxation in your hands and fingers,

1635
04:15:08.000 --> 04:15:19.440
more and more relaxed. With each number.

1636
04:15:27.000 --> 04:15:27.879
From eight.

1637
04:15:30.120 --> 04:15:42.239
Down to one, you can almost feel that healing and

1638
04:15:42.520 --> 04:15:58.840
relaxing energy spreading into your hands and fingers, becoming year

1639
04:15:59.079 --> 04:16:15.399
and more relaxing with each number you hear, going down

1640
04:16:17.520 --> 04:19:15.600
eight down to one, drifting, drifting again starting with number eight, seven, six, five, four, three,

1641
04:20:35.360 --> 04:20:44.680
just being here now, nothing to think about, nothing to do,

1642
04:20:46.319 --> 04:21:00.239
nothing to say, and everything just feels calmer. And this

1643
04:21:00.520 --> 04:21:08.120
is your natural state of being. This is how you

1644
04:21:08.399 --> 04:21:15.319
just normally feel when you take away all that other

1645
04:21:15.719 --> 04:21:22.639
stuff that we add, you know, things like stress and

1646
04:21:22.879 --> 04:21:39.040
worrying and overthinking and anxiety, tension, just generally thinking about stuff.

1647
04:21:41.079 --> 04:21:44.360
When you take that away, which is what we do,

1648
04:21:45.159 --> 04:21:52.840
what we do now, you're.

1649
04:21:52.719 --> 04:21:53.239
Left with.

1650
04:21:56.000 --> 04:22:05.000
A real sense of peacefulness, which comes to you very quickly,

1651
04:22:09.200 --> 04:22:20.000
because ultimately it's just a feeling, a feeling of comfort.

1652
04:22:23.639 --> 04:22:26.920
It's almost as if you've gone inside yourself and you've

1653
04:22:27.079 --> 04:22:41.680
found a special place where everything is peaceful, a place

1654
04:22:41.879 --> 04:22:49.760
where you can feel relaxed and your natural sense of comfort,

1655
04:22:52.959 --> 04:23:00.360
a place where you can be you, where you can

1656
04:23:01.079 --> 04:23:07.719
accept yourself for who you are, a place where you're

1657
04:23:07.799 --> 04:23:18.239
not trying to please anybody else ever, a place where

1658
04:23:18.360 --> 04:23:27.760
you can actually not just love yourself, but in some

1659
04:23:27.920 --> 04:23:37.399
ways more importantly, you can like yourself appreciate who you are.

1660
04:23:46.239 --> 04:23:52.879
That sense of gratitude is in the air all around you.

1661
04:24:00.520 --> 04:24:08.319
That's also a place where you can actually feel the

1662
04:24:08.680 --> 04:24:23.959
healing energy soaking into your body. Healing energy soaking into

1663
04:24:24.079 --> 04:24:34.079
your body, and that healing energy spreads through your veins,

1664
04:24:37.840 --> 04:24:44.680
traveling to each and every single part of your body,

1665
04:24:50.639 --> 04:24:55.200
and you start to realize that actually that healing energy,

1666
04:24:57.680 --> 04:25:04.079
it's not just entered into your brain, it's become part

1667
04:25:04.600 --> 04:25:15.879
of your brain, and that spinal fluid is now mixed

1668
04:25:16.000 --> 04:25:27.120
with healing energy, not just allowing you to feel so

1669
04:25:27.399 --> 04:25:39.239
much more relaxed and healthy in this moment, but also

1670
04:25:42.200 --> 04:25:49.680
you start to realize that actually what's happening now with

1671
04:25:49.879 --> 04:25:59.520
that heathing, relaxing energy spreading through your body, it's actually

1672
04:26:00.040 --> 04:26:10.159
changing your life. It's actually changing the way you're going

1673
04:26:10.239 --> 04:26:17.040
to feel not just now, but tomorrow and the next day.

1674
04:26:18.959 --> 04:26:26.399
As your health improves, not just your physical health, but

1675
04:26:26.559 --> 04:26:33.959
your mental health. Things that used to bother you in

1676
04:26:34.079 --> 04:26:41.680
the past, for some reason, no longer have the effect

1677
04:26:42.159 --> 04:26:51.079
that they used to because something has changed deep within you.

1678
04:26:56.200 --> 04:27:02.559
Maybe things that used to cause you to feel anger

1679
04:27:06.399 --> 04:27:16.520
no longer have that power to control you the way

1680
04:27:16.600 --> 04:27:24.600
they seem to be able to before. As you realize

1681
04:27:25.639 --> 04:27:38.079
that you're the one who decides what affects you, you're

1682
04:27:38.559 --> 04:27:48.440
the one who decides to feel relaxed and calm when

1683
04:27:49.360 --> 04:28:04.280
you choose to enjoy noticing these natural developments of healing

1684
04:28:06.879 --> 04:28:15.440
continuing to grow and improve your life day by day,

1685
04:28:21.360 --> 04:28:29.559
including of course, your ability to relax so much easier

1686
04:28:34.520 --> 04:28:44.120
and sleeping. It's the most natural thing in the world

1687
04:28:45.559 --> 04:28:53.879
to you, because falling asleep is something that you've done

1688
04:28:56.920 --> 04:29:04.600
so many times in your life, and you know that

1689
04:29:04.840 --> 04:29:10.040
you were born, as we all were, with the ability

1690
04:29:11.680 --> 04:29:21.959
to fall asleep naturally. We were born with that ability

1691
04:29:24.959 --> 04:29:39.200
to just drift off into a deep, healing sleep. Even

1692
04:29:39.280 --> 04:29:44.000
when we're kids, sometimes will fall asleep when we don't

1693
04:29:44.040 --> 04:29:50.440
even want to try to stay awake. Maybe it's a

1694
04:29:50.600 --> 04:29:55.079
birthday in the morning, or it's Christmas or holiday or

1695
04:29:55.120 --> 04:29:57.520
something we look forward to. We don't want to go

1696
04:29:57.680 --> 04:30:02.600
to sleep. But the more we want to stay awake,

1697
04:30:04.799 --> 04:30:11.840
the more we just start to drift. And the more

1698
04:30:12.520 --> 04:30:16.200
you fight drifting, the more you try to stop yourself

1699
04:30:16.280 --> 04:30:21.319
and drift in a shape, the deeper and stronger that

1700
04:30:21.559 --> 04:30:32.959
drifting becomes. Because we're born not just with the need

1701
04:30:34.280 --> 04:30:42.399
to relax deeply and to naturally fall asleep, but it's

1702
04:30:42.520 --> 04:30:56.840
our birthright, it's part of our DNA, and sometimes as

1703
04:30:56.879 --> 04:31:02.479
we get older in life, perhaps at times we have

1704
04:31:02.920 --> 04:31:18.559
forgotten that relaxing completely. It's not only a wonderfully pleasant experience,

1705
04:31:24.319 --> 04:31:42.360
it's also really easy. It's very, very easy to let go,

1706
04:31:44.399 --> 04:31:54.000
because that's all it is. It's just deciding to let go.

1707
04:31:59.239 --> 04:32:05.200
And when you press the play button on my recordings,

1708
04:32:07.079 --> 04:32:14.399
you have given permission for my voice to relax you.

1709
04:32:18.079 --> 04:32:21.639
When you press that play button, you have given me

1710
04:32:21.799 --> 04:32:33.520
permission for my words to affect you in a positive

1711
04:32:36.959 --> 04:32:55.639
only a positive way. Opening up your mind too, useful

1712
04:32:57.280 --> 04:33:13.720
and healing suggestions that can have such an amazing effect

1713
04:33:16.560 --> 04:33:27.880
on how you feel right now, as well as those

1714
04:33:28.279 --> 04:33:37.799
changes that continue long after the recording ends, those changes

1715
04:33:38.639 --> 04:33:52.400
within you that continue to flourish and grow, transforming your

1716
04:33:52.520 --> 04:34:05.400
life in a positive, beautiful way, allowing you to move

1717
04:34:06.720 --> 04:34:12.000
forward in your life in the direction that you choose

1718
04:34:13.520 --> 04:34:29.680
for yourself. And this feeling, this feeling that you can

1719
04:34:29.840 --> 04:34:54.240
experience of safety, comfort, calmness, just feels so nice. It's

1720
04:34:54.400 --> 04:35:08.599
such a healthy place to be, and that positivity grows

1721
04:35:09.880 --> 04:35:27.439
within you each and every day. Moving forward, you're going

1722
04:35:27.560 --> 04:35:38.360
to find that you're more relaxed physically and in your

1723
04:35:38.439 --> 04:35:48.520
mind is more relaxed. And it's not that you're thinking slower.

1724
04:35:50.799 --> 04:35:54.400
It's just that your mind will be less clogged up

1725
04:35:55.520 --> 04:36:08.799
with unnecessary negativity because from now on, your mind rejects negativity.

1726
04:36:12.840 --> 04:36:20.279
From now on, you're going to start noticing when negativity

1727
04:36:20.439 --> 04:36:34.840
arises and you can just say stop, stop, and that

1728
04:36:35.080 --> 04:36:54.000
negativity will turn around and leave you alone. Stop and

1729
04:36:54.200 --> 04:37:09.319
that negativity will disappear. And as you notice that you

1730
04:37:10.680 --> 04:37:23.880
feel way more relaxed than you probably expected, you can

1731
04:37:24.240 --> 04:37:33.840
now congratulate yourself because you're the person that has done this,

1732
04:37:35.599 --> 04:37:41.040
You are the one that has opened your mind up

1733
04:37:41.759 --> 04:37:49.799
to the simple facts that you can feel more relaxed

1734
04:37:49.880 --> 04:37:59.520
in your body and in your mind. You've opened your

1735
04:37:59.639 --> 04:38:04.799
mind and up to the birthright of being able to

1736
04:38:05.119 --> 04:38:21.720
just fall asleep easily when you choose. And that's a

1737
04:38:21.880 --> 04:38:28.880
nice feeling. Don't you think it feels nice? Doesn't it?

1738
04:38:32.000 --> 04:38:38.840
To feel calm? All that healing energy is spreading through

1739
04:38:38.919 --> 04:38:49.240
your body and your mind to spend time in a

1740
04:38:51.400 --> 04:39:07.080
special place where negativity can no longer enter. Yuh, negativity

1741
04:39:07.240 --> 04:39:16.240
is banned. It's bad, it's not allowed entry. Doesn't it doesn't.

1742
04:39:16.319 --> 04:39:24.720
This doesn't deserve to be here, doesn't belong here. Negativity

1743
04:39:24.959 --> 04:39:39.119
has no place in your life, which makes room for

1744
04:39:39.439 --> 04:40:10.959
more comfort, more heathing, more relaxation, more peace. It feels nice,

1745
04:40:11.080 --> 04:40:35.759
doesn't it? Just the let go with everything. I'm going

1746
04:40:35.840 --> 04:40:43.279
to count down now from twenty down to one. You

1747
04:40:43.400 --> 04:40:53.360
can continue to relax. If you choose, you can drift

1748
04:40:54.560 --> 04:41:07.759
to sleep with every number you hear me say, you

1749
04:41:07.919 --> 04:41:15.279
can fell twice as relaxed, or if you choose, you

1750
04:41:15.400 --> 04:41:18.880
can feel twice a sleepy.

1751
04:41:25.240 --> 04:41:25.439
Now.

1752
04:41:30.880 --> 04:43:39.720
Twenty nineteen, eighteen, seventeen, sixteen, fifteen, fourteen, thirteen, twelve, eleven, ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five.

1753
04:43:46.279 --> 04:43:46.520
Four.

1754
04:44:19.959 --> 04:44:29.759
This is your time to just take a break, your

1755
04:44:29.919 --> 04:44:40.639
time to relax, to allow your mind to slow down,

1756
04:44:49.319 --> 04:45:03.400
to give yourself permission to take a break from everything.

1757
04:45:08.240 --> 04:45:08.400
End.

1758
04:45:08.439 --> 04:45:15.639
You're the only person that can make that decision. You're

1759
04:45:15.680 --> 04:45:23.040
the only person that can actually tell your mind to

1760
04:45:23.360 --> 04:45:47.439
just relax, to just take some time off so that

1761
04:45:47.599 --> 04:45:52.599
you can focus on your body, getting in touch with

1762
04:45:53.759 --> 04:46:10.080
how you feel physically. And in the process of this

1763
04:46:10.439 --> 04:46:15.319
body scan, where you focus on different parts of your body,

1764
04:46:21.759 --> 04:46:29.200
those parts that you focus on and observe. Even though

1765
04:46:29.360 --> 04:46:37.520
you're not purposely requesting for those parts of your body

1766
04:46:37.720 --> 04:46:46.200
to relax, it's kind of expected. You expect when you

1767
04:46:46.400 --> 04:46:59.439
listen to my voice to feel more relaxed naturally, because

1768
04:46:59.520 --> 04:47:09.319
when you listening to me, your attention is focused on

1769
04:47:09.560 --> 04:47:21.040
my words, and as my words guide you to focus

1770
04:47:25.479 --> 04:47:40.319
on those parts of your body, your focus increases, which

1771
04:47:40.520 --> 04:47:56.439
actually calms your mind. And when your mind calms down,

1772
04:48:01.319 --> 04:48:23.400
your body relaxes. And when your body calms down, your

1773
04:48:23.560 --> 04:48:40.400
mind relaxes. And even though we've not really started the

1774
04:48:40.560 --> 04:48:53.240
focus on your body, you can already feel that healing

1775
04:48:53.520 --> 04:49:07.959
energy spreading through your body, pushing out stress and tension,

1776
04:49:12.119 --> 04:49:19.400
healing all the parts of your body, including your skin,

1777
04:49:20.560 --> 04:49:27.479
your bones, your blood, all of your organs inside your body,

1778
04:49:28.880 --> 04:49:35.639
all of the muscles, all of the fat, all of everything,

1779
04:49:37.520 --> 04:49:43.680
every hair on your body is filled with that healing energy.

1780
04:49:51.720 --> 04:50:07.439
And when your brain fills with that healing energy, the

1781
04:50:07.680 --> 04:50:32.080
feeling of comfort and relaxation increases deeply, increases in a

1782
04:50:32.200 --> 04:50:32.799
way that.

1783
04:50:36.240 --> 04:50:37.159
Your mind.

1784
04:50:40.439 --> 04:50:53.959
Starts to feel perhaps bit drowsy because it's not needed,

1785
04:50:57.319 --> 04:51:13.599
and it may start to drift if that's what's needed.

1786
04:51:16.759 --> 04:51:21.360
So if you're listening to this and what you need

1787
04:51:21.639 --> 04:51:24.680
is deep relaxation, that's what you'll get.

1788
04:51:26.880 --> 04:51:28.360
If what you need is.

1789
04:51:30.040 --> 04:51:37.000
To fall asleep naturally and easily as your mind drifts,

1790
04:51:39.560 --> 04:51:53.319
that's also what will happen. Because by pressing that play

1791
04:51:53.439 --> 04:51:58.799
button on the podcast and listening to me, you give

1792
04:51:59.119 --> 04:52:11.840
permission for your body and your mind. In fact, you

1793
04:52:11.959 --> 04:52:16.439
give the command to your body and your mind to

1794
04:52:16.639 --> 04:52:29.319
relax deeply and to drift off to sleep if that's

1795
04:52:29.639 --> 04:52:31.560
what you want.

1796
04:52:34.720 --> 04:52:35.119
Or need.

1797
04:52:42.840 --> 04:52:48.479
And as I focus on the different parts of your body,

1798
04:52:53.479 --> 04:53:02.279
you may start to just drift, and then you come

1799
04:53:02.400 --> 04:53:07.639
back again and you hear me talking, and I'm focusing

1800
04:53:07.799 --> 04:53:16.240
on a different part of your body, and you may

1801
04:53:18.319 --> 04:53:27.360
find yourself drifting. You don't realize you're drifting until you

1802
04:53:27.560 --> 04:53:35.880
stop drifting and you're alert again to my voice. Focusing

1803
04:53:37.040 --> 04:53:41.840
on a different part of your body starts to relax

1804
04:53:42.040 --> 04:53:54.520
even deeper, because that drifting is basically you already in

1805
04:53:54.680 --> 04:54:05.000
the sleep zone. And the more you drift, the longer

1806
04:54:05.080 --> 04:54:14.919
you drift, and the longer you drift, eventually that drifting

1807
04:54:15.119 --> 04:54:25.119
continues into sleep, and that's the last you remember.

1808
04:54:26.680 --> 04:54:27.759
Until you wake up.

1809
04:54:32.159 --> 04:54:37.240
In your own time, when you experience the right amount

1810
04:54:37.400 --> 04:54:46.240
of sleep for you, because when you do and if

1811
04:54:46.319 --> 04:55:00.080
you do fall asleep, it's extremely pleasant, so relaxing, so

1812
04:55:00.360 --> 04:55:20.080
deep healing sleep. I'm it feels so nice to relax

1813
04:55:20.360 --> 04:55:29.200
into your own body and mind as you as you

1814
04:55:29.400 --> 04:55:37.200
feel that healing energy is spreading through it, relaxing us

1815
04:55:37.400 --> 04:55:58.919
so deeply, relaxing us so so deeply. As we start

1816
04:55:59.119 --> 04:56:15.119
to focus on your eyes, moving down to your jaw,

1817
04:56:23.080 --> 04:57:12.479
down to your neck, your shoulders, arms, hands, fingers, your chest, stomach,

1818
04:57:19.799 --> 04:58:04.119
your back, your spine, youhps, you legs, your feet, your toes,

1819
04:58:21.560 --> 04:58:38.639
and feelingeing spreading and growing inside your body, feeling you up. Now,

1820
04:58:42.040 --> 04:58:52.159
let's focus again on parts of your body, focusing this

1821
04:58:52.400 --> 04:59:03.119
time on your forehead. Now on your mouth, your lips,

1822
04:59:05.159 --> 04:59:24.240
your tongue, the whole of your mouth. Focus in on

1823
04:59:24.400 --> 04:59:34.439
your fingers. Maybe you could move your fingers a little

1824
04:59:34.479 --> 04:59:46.200
bit so you can focus on each one individually, both hands.

1825
04:59:50.360 --> 04:59:53.439
And even though you focus on both of your hands

1826
04:59:54.360 --> 05:00:04.319
now they almost seem to just melt into one. Where

1827
05:00:04.520 --> 05:00:12.240
is your right hand starting your left hand end, almost

1828
05:00:12.360 --> 05:00:23.919
as if just mixed together. Now focusing on your knees,

1829
05:00:29.799 --> 05:00:52.799
just noticing how your knees fell. Now focusing on your elbows,

1830
05:00:55.560 --> 05:01:08.000
focusing on both of your elbows, just observing the feeling

1831
05:01:10.680 --> 05:01:42.080
of your elbows. Now focusing and abserving the back of

1832
05:01:42.159 --> 05:01:58.000
your neck, feeding that energy on the back of your neck.

1833
05:02:29.319 --> 05:02:51.919
Observing your ankles, being aware of physical sensations in your ankles,

1834
05:03:51.919 --> 05:04:03.560
not to see no you twos on both of your feet.

1835
05:04:10.599 --> 05:04:11.919
Being aware.

1836
05:04:13.439 --> 05:05:06.840
How your taste feel right now ninety sn how your

1837
05:05:07.400 --> 05:05:29.759
entire body feels, noticing your mind.

1838
05:05:32.840 --> 05:05:33.319
Feels.

1839
05:05:37.119 --> 05:06:30.159
Now letting go, letting go, letting go everything, letting go,

1840
05:06:36.720 --> 05:07:11.000
letting go, letting go everything, e thing. I'm going to

1841
05:07:11.080 --> 05:07:14.880
start now, and I'd like you just, first of all,

1842
05:07:15.040 --> 05:07:21.240
just to see yourself lying down on that message table,

1843
05:07:23.080 --> 05:07:27.439
lying on your front. Your head is supported, your arms

1844
05:07:27.759 --> 05:07:36.919
are supported, and you feel comfortable and breathing. It's really easy,

1845
05:07:39.159 --> 05:07:45.759
and you feel you feel confident in how you look

1846
05:07:45.799 --> 05:07:49.400
as well. So there's none of that issue of body

1847
05:07:49.520 --> 05:07:58.279
problems or shyness, because I'm a professional and this is

1848
05:07:58.880 --> 05:08:04.040
a therapy session, so none of that stuff matters whatsoever.

1849
05:08:07.959 --> 05:08:14.439
This is about you. This is about how you feel

1850
05:08:15.080 --> 05:08:21.880
and how you can enjoy that sense of comfort and

1851
05:08:22.000 --> 05:08:29.279
relaxation that comes from letting go and allowing my hands

1852
05:08:30.080 --> 05:08:37.639
and my fingers to relax you by a message your body.

1853
05:08:42.720 --> 05:08:44.919
So I want to start off just by placing my

1854
05:08:45.119 --> 05:08:52.000
hands on the back of your head, just gently, just

1855
05:08:52.279 --> 05:08:56.919
you can feel what my hands feel like really on you.

1856
05:09:01.360 --> 05:09:03.720
So you can maybe feel the warmth of my hands

1857
05:09:03.799 --> 05:09:09.240
on the back of your head. With my hands to

1858
05:09:09.319 --> 05:09:13.319
the side of your head, not pressing, but just holding

1859
05:09:13.479 --> 05:09:19.520
there very gently, maybe over your ears, and a little

1860
05:09:19.520 --> 05:09:24.680
bit on your face, just so you can feel my hands.

1861
05:09:26.400 --> 05:09:28.599
So you can become accustomed.

1862
05:09:29.560 --> 05:09:40.479
To them. And now put my hands on the back

1863
05:09:40.560 --> 05:09:45.319
of your head again and gently let them slide down

1864
05:09:47.919 --> 05:09:57.400
onto the back of your neck. You can feel my

1865
05:09:57.639 --> 05:10:07.880
hands gently stroking the back of your neck to start with,

1866
05:10:12.479 --> 05:10:16.439
just so you can get used to the feeling with

1867
05:10:16.599 --> 05:10:24.119
my hands on your skin, get accustomed to realize that

1868
05:10:24.639 --> 05:10:34.720
you're safe and it's all good, it's all fine, And

1869
05:10:34.759 --> 05:10:38.880
I'm going to start gently messaging the muscles in the

1870
05:10:38.959 --> 05:10:54.840
back of your neck with both hands. Now, this is

1871
05:10:54.880 --> 05:11:01.159
a very trusting situation really, because our necks are so

1872
05:11:01.479 --> 05:11:06.520
fragile and to have someone have their hands around your

1873
05:11:06.599 --> 05:11:11.520
neck in that way can sometimes be problematic for people,

1874
05:11:12.759 --> 05:11:17.200
which is why massages are quite good, because it allows

1875
05:11:17.279 --> 05:11:27.200
you to relax and to get in touch with trust,

1876
05:11:31.520 --> 05:11:43.360
to feel peaceful and calm. And there's a massage the

1877
05:11:43.680 --> 05:11:51.680
sides of your neck, gently moving from the bottom of

1878
05:11:51.759 --> 05:11:55.439
your neck. It would be sort of near where your

1879
05:11:55.520 --> 05:12:01.200
shoulders start, I guess, all the way up to your jaw,

1880
05:12:03.000 --> 05:12:06.520
your ears kind of area that side of your neck,

1881
05:12:09.279 --> 05:12:11.880
of course is a lot longer than the front of

1882
05:12:11.919 --> 05:12:28.040
your neck. And then message in the back of your neck,

1883
05:12:31.880 --> 05:12:40.680
especially that area where perhaps we hold tension, and as

1884
05:12:40.759 --> 05:12:45.400
that area's message, you can actually feel a sense of

1885
05:12:45.560 --> 05:12:53.599
release in the back of your neck and maybe you

1886
05:12:53.759 --> 05:12:59.040
can breathe it out as well. Notice how it feels

1887
05:12:59.279 --> 05:13:11.919
notice how you feel, and then moving down to that

1888
05:13:12.159 --> 05:13:17.479
area between your neck and your shoulders, that muscle area,

1889
05:13:20.200 --> 05:13:27.639
starting to message that area on both sides. I mean,

1890
05:13:27.680 --> 05:13:30.000
this would be the area that a lot of people

1891
05:13:30.040 --> 05:13:32.880
would message if they were going to give you like

1892
05:13:33.000 --> 05:13:38.919
a shoulder message. Even that's not technically the shoulders, but

1893
05:13:39.080 --> 05:13:43.319
it's all the muscles that lead to the shoulders from

1894
05:13:43.400 --> 05:13:49.759
the neck and again that can hold tension and stress.

1895
05:13:51.000 --> 05:13:56.000
And when massaged sometimes a nice deep message is useful,

1896
05:13:59.080 --> 05:14:15.040
and judice how deep that message is, and just allow

1897
05:14:16.919 --> 05:14:21.959
my knuckles just to dig in to get to those

1898
05:14:22.159 --> 05:14:32.319
muscles and to really relaxed all the time being firm

1899
05:14:32.959 --> 05:14:50.040
yet gentle with you and just stroking down the area

1900
05:14:52.880 --> 05:14:59.040
to your actual shoulders, moving to the muscles of your shoulders,

1901
05:15:05.040 --> 05:15:06.479
and maybe initially just.

1902
05:15:08.000 --> 05:15:09.560
Pulling up the shoulders a.

1903
05:15:09.560 --> 05:15:13.000
Little bit of the table just to give you a

1904
05:15:13.040 --> 05:15:23.599
little bit of a stretch, but very gently, and you've

1905
05:15:23.639 --> 05:15:26.759
got the muscles at the front of your shoulders, the

1906
05:15:27.000 --> 05:15:37.880
sides and the back. Again, this is a part that

1907
05:15:38.040 --> 05:15:43.319
can really take quite a bit of pressure, quite a

1908
05:15:43.360 --> 05:15:53.599
bit of needing if if you wish to really release

1909
05:15:53.759 --> 05:16:02.119
the tension to really get into those muscles and you

1910
05:16:02.200 --> 05:16:06.599
can let your fingers in there if you feel really nice.

1911
05:16:08.520 --> 05:16:16.080
Sometimes just being stroked gently or being massaged quite strongly,

1912
05:16:19.759 --> 05:16:29.200
it can all be beneficial to the relaxation of the

1913
05:16:29.279 --> 05:16:42.759
muscles in your shoulders. Now to move down your arms,

1914
05:16:49.319 --> 05:16:52.880
we do one arm at a time, starting with your

1915
05:16:53.040 --> 05:17:03.240
right arm. What I do is I just lift your

1916
05:17:03.400 --> 05:17:06.200
arm up, just hold it to the side of you

1917
05:17:09.439 --> 05:17:15.799
that words still be attached, and I just message the

1918
05:17:15.959 --> 05:17:28.759
tops of your arms all the way down to your

1919
05:17:28.959 --> 05:17:56.360
forearms into your wrists, gently messaging that parts, the softer part,

1920
05:17:56.439 --> 05:18:02.880
which is the under part of the arm, which leads

1921
05:18:03.080 --> 05:18:07.880
to the crease in your elbow. The inside it's much

1922
05:18:08.400 --> 05:18:25.319
more sensitive skin. Sometimes just having that stroked I feel

1923
05:18:25.479 --> 05:18:42.119
really nice, pleasurable and relaxing. Now moving down to your

1924
05:18:42.240 --> 05:18:55.080
right hand, just holding your hand in both of my hands,

1925
05:19:00.919 --> 05:19:04.799
just pressing gently on the back of your hand and

1926
05:19:06.840 --> 05:19:15.040
stretching your fingers ever so lightly, at.

1927
05:19:14.919 --> 05:19:15.919
The same time.

1928
05:19:17.880 --> 05:19:30.919
Pressing down and massaging each finger, and then starting to

1929
05:19:31.159 --> 05:19:42.439
massage the palms of the hand. Just turning the hand gently,

1930
05:19:44.240 --> 05:19:54.080
stretching it gently, and actually having your hand held can

1931
05:19:54.240 --> 05:20:01.000
really be an emotional experience. Sometimes, even if it is

1932
05:20:01.240 --> 05:20:06.680
a stranger, so when you don't know very well, like

1933
05:20:06.799 --> 05:20:13.720
a massage person or a therapist, maybe because it's intimate

1934
05:20:21.319 --> 05:20:34.279
and you can feel nice, you can feel safe. As

1935
05:20:34.319 --> 05:20:37.279
I put that right arm back down where it was,

1936
05:20:42.919 --> 05:20:49.200
We're gonna do the same with your left arm, exactly

1937
05:20:49.360 --> 05:20:58.959
the same. Massage in the muscles in your arm all

1938
05:20:58.959 --> 05:21:07.000
the way down. Do you rest, stroking the inside of

1939
05:21:07.119 --> 05:21:17.919
your arm, just being gentle or as firm as you require,

1940
05:21:26.520 --> 05:21:39.799
and then massaging your left hand, stretching the fingers, gently,

1941
05:21:42.319 --> 05:21:58.200
massaging the palm of your left hand, and you can

1942
05:21:58.439 --> 05:22:26.680
feel so so relaxing, so comforting, and I just rest

1943
05:22:26.799 --> 05:22:39.240
your left down back down. Start to message your back,

1944
05:22:40.959 --> 05:22:49.000
the biggest part of your body, starting at the top,

1945
05:22:52.240 --> 05:22:56.159
starting again where we already have been, the area at

1946
05:22:56.200 --> 05:23:03.040
the top in between his shoulders, near your neck. Going back,

1947
05:23:03.759 --> 05:23:09.159
a massage in that area again, but this time moving downwards,

1948
05:23:15.639 --> 05:23:21.360
taking a downward stroke to the middle of your back,

1949
05:23:23.799 --> 05:23:32.119
working from the outside inwards. A massage in the your back,

1950
05:23:32.279 --> 05:23:44.200
but the outsides of your back, the parts where your

1951
05:23:44.360 --> 05:23:57.520
arms would maybe rest against, almost the path that connects

1952
05:23:57.720 --> 05:24:12.919
your front to your back, and just messaging down firmly

1953
05:24:14.200 --> 05:24:21.959
but gently, as firm as you want, moving down and

1954
05:24:23.560 --> 05:24:25.799
moving across a little bit, and moving all the way

1955
05:24:25.919 --> 05:24:28.000
down again, be.

1956
05:24:28.200 --> 05:24:29.240
Very gentle.

1957
05:24:30.599 --> 05:24:41.799
Yet firm as you choose. Eventually you get to the spine.

1958
05:24:43.200 --> 05:24:46.919
We can massage the muscles and either side of your

1959
05:24:47.000 --> 05:24:50.880
spine from the top of your neck all the way

1960
05:24:51.040 --> 05:25:02.119
down to your lower back. We can do that a

1961
05:25:02.240 --> 05:25:12.840
few times. Sometimes people use the knuckle or the you know,

1962
05:25:13.319 --> 05:25:17.759
two fingers and just go your side of the spine.

1963
05:25:19.080 --> 05:25:22.799
Almost just push down, go all the way down to

1964
05:25:22.919 --> 05:25:30.840
the bottom of the spine, each time releasing tension and

1965
05:25:31.159 --> 05:25:40.159
opening up the body, stretching your body so that you

1966
05:25:40.439 --> 05:25:58.680
feel more relaxed but at the same time rejuvenated. And

1967
05:25:58.799 --> 05:26:02.159
now I'm going to move to one side, to your

1968
05:26:02.240 --> 05:26:11.319
right side, and from the bottom of your ribs to

1969
05:26:11.479 --> 05:26:17.400
your pelvis, I'm gonna message that area of your back.

1970
05:26:19.360 --> 05:26:22.479
I'll stretch over the other side and i will pull

1971
05:26:22.639 --> 05:26:29.080
the muscles gently and massage and push from one end

1972
05:26:29.560 --> 05:26:33.599
that side or the way to my side to in

1973
05:26:33.680 --> 05:26:38.439
the middle of fact, to where your spine is. Massaging

1974
05:26:39.319 --> 05:26:43.680
that side of your spine the opposite side to where

1975
05:26:43.680 --> 05:26:51.759
I'm standing. It's almost like kneading bread. There's that big

1976
05:26:51.959 --> 05:27:04.240
area which is firm yet lots there to massage. Potentially

1977
05:27:04.360 --> 05:27:08.520
one of the most important places to actually have a

1978
05:27:08.720 --> 05:27:16.159
message because you really feel it. You really feel the

1979
05:27:16.319 --> 05:27:21.479
release and the pleasure of having your lower back massaged.

1980
05:27:24.639 --> 05:27:30.279
It releases so much from your body that's not useful,

1981
05:27:33.520 --> 05:27:39.040
starting a healing process which will continue long after this

1982
05:27:39.279 --> 05:27:51.360
recording is over. The message in this part of your

1983
05:27:51.439 --> 05:27:56.799
body not only feels really good for you, it's actually

1984
05:27:56.919 --> 05:28:00.959
fun to do because it is, as I said, like

1985
05:28:01.159 --> 05:28:06.279
kneading bread, it's a part that you can really get

1986
05:28:06.520 --> 05:28:13.880
hold of and really massage deeply. If that's your choice,

1987
05:28:21.880 --> 05:28:23.799
then I'm going to move over to the other side

1988
05:28:23.840 --> 05:28:30.279
of your body and do the same with the opposite

1989
05:28:30.400 --> 05:28:39.720
part of your lawer back, kneading and messaging from your

1990
05:28:39.919 --> 05:28:46.560
sides all the way to the middle of your back

1991
05:28:47.159 --> 05:29:01.040
where your spine is pressing and kneading and gentle at

1992
05:29:01.080 --> 05:29:16.279
the same time. It feels so releasing. This mixture of pleasure, comfort, release, calmness,

1993
05:29:16.680 --> 05:29:28.319
relaxation or mixed together. Plus there's that feeling from your

1994
05:29:28.400 --> 05:29:30.680
stomach as it's being stretched.

1995
05:29:32.560 --> 05:29:35.000
Even though you're in your stomach now, you.

1996
05:29:35.080 --> 05:29:38.880
Can feel it being stretched because that whole area is

1997
05:29:39.000 --> 05:29:50.240
connected to your stomach. Now we're going to move or

1998
05:29:50.400 --> 05:29:55.680
move further up to your top of your body, and

1999
05:29:55.880 --> 05:30:04.159
we do the same this time starting with your upper back.

2000
05:30:04.680 --> 05:30:09.840
Put my hands forward over and mass massage in that

2001
05:30:10.119 --> 05:30:16.840
area up to your spine, from the side of your

2002
05:30:16.880 --> 05:30:22.080
body up to your spine. So some of that massage area,

2003
05:30:22.799 --> 05:30:28.759
the muscle tissue or whatever fatty tissue even will be

2004
05:30:29.040 --> 05:30:34.439
possibly from your chest because or connected chest and the

2005
05:30:34.639 --> 05:30:41.200
back connect together. I'm going to be massaging and just

2006
05:30:41.319 --> 05:30:48.040
pulling some of that skin from your side up and

2007
05:30:48.279 --> 05:30:56.959
massaging that area of your upper back all the way

2008
05:30:57.119 --> 05:31:03.599
to your spine. And then I'll move down a bit

2009
05:31:03.639 --> 05:31:06.720
and I'll continue with the middle of your back, doing

2010
05:31:06.840 --> 05:31:25.319
exactly the same thing as gentle, as deep as you choose. Now,

2011
05:31:25.439 --> 05:31:29.759
I'll move the other side again and do the exact

2012
05:31:29.959 --> 05:31:33.680
same thing with the top of your back on the

2013
05:31:33.759 --> 05:31:43.319
other side, from pretty much underneath your arm area really

2014
05:31:48.720 --> 05:31:58.279
to your spine, and then continue in that all the

2015
05:31:58.319 --> 05:31:59.200
way down.

2016
05:32:00.720 --> 05:32:03.080
Including your lower your middle.

2017
05:32:02.799 --> 05:32:21.040
Of your back. I'm gonna go to your thighs, the

2018
05:32:21.119 --> 05:32:26.439
backs of your thighs, and the sides of your thighs,

2019
05:32:30.639 --> 05:32:39.599
starting with your right leg. Massage in the back and

2020
05:32:39.759 --> 05:32:48.279
the sides of your thighs gently and firmly. There's a

2021
05:32:48.400 --> 05:32:51.799
lot of muscles there. It's an area that can be

2022
05:32:51.959 --> 05:32:56.200
very tense at times and maybe needs a little bit

2023
05:32:56.279 --> 05:32:59.759
more pressure than the rest of the body that's up

2024
05:32:59.799 --> 05:33:10.159
to you. You can gently stroke the back of your

2025
05:33:10.279 --> 05:33:16.159
legs where you know, opposite your knee joint or underneath

2026
05:33:16.200 --> 05:33:29.159
your knee joint, very sensitive, gentle area, and then working

2027
05:33:29.319 --> 05:33:36.759
down to your calf muscles. Massage in your calf muscles

2028
05:33:37.639 --> 05:33:50.959
thoroughly and deeply, if you choose, using both hands and fingers,

2029
05:33:51.479 --> 05:34:04.759
digging deep to your ankles, in the back of your

2030
05:34:05.720 --> 05:34:11.720
back of your ankles, just gently massage in the area,

2031
05:34:17.200 --> 05:34:33.840
maybe lifting the leg and stretching a little bit. Moving

2032
05:34:34.599 --> 05:34:48.720
to the right foot, massaging the bottom of.

2033
05:34:48.720 --> 05:34:49.479
Your feet.

2034
05:34:53.560 --> 05:35:04.720
And the size of your fate gently but firm enough

2035
05:35:04.919 --> 05:35:15.680
so they don't tickle, and just allow the pleasure that

2036
05:35:15.759 --> 05:35:21.919
you get from having your feet massaged to just overtake

2037
05:35:22.040 --> 05:35:30.919
you as I continue to message your feet, the bottoms

2038
05:35:30.959 --> 05:35:40.680
of your feet, the sides your arches, your heel. You

2039
05:35:40.759 --> 05:35:43.720
can put a lot of pressure into your heel and

2040
05:35:43.840 --> 05:35:48.799
it feels amazing, Yet the arches need to be a

2041
05:35:48.880 --> 05:36:00.799
bit more gentle, stretching your toes gently, sage in the

2042
05:36:00.919 --> 05:36:08.959
bottoms of your toes with my fingers, each one individually,

2043
05:36:17.360 --> 05:36:21.799
moving her to the left leg to do exactly the same.

2044
05:36:21.680 --> 05:36:26.279
Thing, starting.

2045
05:36:27.759 --> 05:36:32.240
At the top of the thighs, work in the back

2046
05:36:32.319 --> 05:36:37.880
of the thighs and the sides, massaging deeply and gently

2047
05:36:40.000 --> 05:36:53.919
the whole area, working all the way down. And this

2048
05:36:54.159 --> 05:36:59.919
is an area that maybe you could like to spend

2049
05:37:00.200 --> 05:37:09.000
more time relaxing and messaging. So perhaps if you wanted

2050
05:37:09.159 --> 05:37:14.159
like a bigger future recording, want spend more time on

2051
05:37:14.360 --> 05:37:26.520
one particular area. As you move down to your calf muscles,

2052
05:37:32.520 --> 05:37:48.319
massage your calf muscles firmly and gently, moving down your

2053
05:37:48.400 --> 05:37:55.200
aincord into your feet. Massage in the backs of your feet,

2054
05:37:57.080 --> 05:38:06.319
the bottoms of your feet, stretching your toes and message

2055
05:38:06.400 --> 05:38:13.799
in each tone individually. And the feeling of pleasure and

2056
05:38:14.080 --> 05:38:19.279
release that you experience when your having your feet massaged

2057
05:38:21.119 --> 05:38:40.040
feels really good. Now shed turn over in your mind.

2058
05:38:41.400 --> 05:38:51.159
Laying on your back, I'm just going to start again

2059
05:38:54.439 --> 05:39:09.119
for your neck area in your shoulders, just to get

2060
05:39:09.200 --> 05:39:18.959
back in touch with that area. And as you move up,

2061
05:39:26.759 --> 05:39:31.560
I can clean my hands, make them more fresh because

2062
05:39:31.639 --> 05:39:40.799
now I'm gonna message your face gently, starting off with

2063
05:39:40.919 --> 05:39:51.599
your forehead. Your eyes are closed and I can just

2064
05:39:52.159 --> 05:39:58.400
stretch your eyes a little bit, pushing up on your eyebrows,

2065
05:40:05.240 --> 05:40:18.000
just massaging around your scalp, massaging down your cheeks, around

2066
05:40:18.080 --> 05:40:30.680
your ears, into your chaw, gently the side of your neck,

2067
05:40:34.560 --> 05:40:35.319
your chin.

2068
05:40:42.200 --> 05:40:42.599
Mm hmm.

2069
05:40:46.439 --> 05:40:54.080
Then just moving down from your neck down to your chest,

2070
05:40:57.880 --> 05:41:01.919
starting by massage in the very top of your chest

2071
05:41:05.720 --> 05:41:10.959
where the collar bone is. Give a side to the collarbone,

2072
05:41:19.439 --> 05:41:22.639
and then just message in the hole of the chest,

2073
05:41:31.880 --> 05:41:43.880
moving the chest around. Because it's quite a large area.

2074
05:41:45.840 --> 05:41:53.279
You can move from one side to the next, moving

2075
05:41:53.680 --> 05:42:04.680
my hands underneath pretty much where your arms are, stretching up,

2076
05:42:06.840 --> 05:42:09.880
stretching some of the muscles of your back in the process,

2077
05:42:15.159 --> 05:42:23.799
moving up over your chest and they're moving down again,

2078
05:42:36.400 --> 05:42:41.240
and then allowing my hands to just massage gently and

2079
05:42:41.520 --> 05:42:48.240
slide down towards your stomach, starting in the middle of

2080
05:42:48.360 --> 05:42:57.959
your chest, and then gradually my hands moving apart and

2081
05:42:58.240 --> 05:43:03.880
massage in and sliding and at the same time moving

2082
05:43:04.000 --> 05:43:23.520
down to just below your ribcage, moving down the messaging

2083
05:43:23.639 --> 05:43:32.279
up again, giving your chest all the attention that it

2084
05:43:32.479 --> 05:43:47.000
needs to feel completely relaxed, remembering them. I'm also going

2085
05:43:47.040 --> 05:43:52.560
to be focusing on your sides as well, an area

2086
05:43:52.720 --> 05:43:58.880
that really doesn't get much attention but feels really good

2087
05:44:00.080 --> 05:44:09.400
when it's massaged. Just stroking my hands down the sides

2088
05:44:09.479 --> 05:44:16.200
of your body, just below your arms, all the way

2089
05:44:16.319 --> 05:44:29.439
down to your hips. Now move into your stomach area.

2090
05:44:31.479 --> 05:44:34.880
I'm going to stand one side of you like I

2091
05:44:34.959 --> 05:44:39.439
did when I did your lower back. I'm gonna do

2092
05:44:39.520 --> 05:44:45.599
a similar process of just stretching the muscles from your side,

2093
05:44:49.080 --> 05:44:58.680
gently massaging from one side to the next.

2094
05:45:00.720 --> 05:45:01.159
Move in.

2095
05:45:03.720 --> 05:45:07.880
A whole area from below your ribs all the way

2096
05:45:08.000 --> 05:45:18.840
down to below your belly button, and then move around

2097
05:45:18.919 --> 05:45:28.799
to the other side of you and repeat that process

2098
05:45:29.119 --> 05:45:42.200
of relaxing, deeply, calmly. You feel loose, You feel free.

2099
05:45:44.599 --> 05:45:49.279
And it's something about having your stomach message that's different

2100
05:45:49.360 --> 05:45:56.200
from any other part because we do have a tendency

2101
05:45:56.799 --> 05:46:02.159
of holding a different kind of stress their stomachs that

2102
05:46:02.279 --> 05:46:10.720
we may not be aware of as a Now massage

2103
05:46:10.799 --> 05:46:20.279
your stomach in front of your stomach, making circles around

2104
05:46:20.599 --> 05:46:29.040
your belly button, and then go in the other way around.

2105
05:46:35.599 --> 05:46:38.279
There's a gentleness and a freedom.

2106
05:46:37.919 --> 05:46:38.919
That comes.

2107
05:46:40.439 --> 05:46:50.319
From feeling how you're feeling. As I now move down

2108
05:46:51.720 --> 05:46:57.159
the tops of your thighs the muscles message in them,

2109
05:46:58.720 --> 05:47:02.080
and I can do this two legs at the same time,

2110
05:47:04.319 --> 05:47:13.680
pressing down, massaging deeply those muscles in your thighs at

2111
05:47:13.759 --> 05:47:22.479
front of your thighs, and moving down to your knees,

2112
05:47:23.400 --> 05:47:36.080
gently massaging your knees, sliding down your shins, putting pressure

2113
05:47:36.159 --> 05:47:43.880
on either side of your shin gently softly but firmly,

2114
05:47:48.080 --> 05:47:57.759
moving down to your ankles, stroking the tops of your feet,

2115
05:48:03.919 --> 05:48:09.319
and then with each foot in each hand, just gently

2116
05:48:09.560 --> 05:48:17.880
messaging the whole of the foot, the top, the bottom,

2117
05:48:18.639 --> 05:48:26.959
your heel, your ankle, your toes, messaging every part of

2118
05:48:27.040 --> 05:48:36.799
your feet. It feels so good. Just let go and

2119
05:48:37.080 --> 05:49:01.919
enjoy the process. Enjoy feeling so deeply relaxed, so much comfort,

2120
05:49:02.159 --> 05:49:09.119
and so many feelings that come just from touching your skin.

2121
05:49:19.840 --> 05:49:25.799
And you can just lie there for as long as

2122
05:49:25.840 --> 05:49:39.959
you choose, enjoying the feeling of deep comfort from being massaged.

2123
05:49:41.919 --> 05:49:42.240
By me.

2124
05:49:49.439 --> 05:50:11.400
Enjoy feeling deeply right. And all we're gonna do is

2125
05:50:15.040 --> 05:50:31.520
blow out some candles. In your mind, there are going

2126
05:50:31.599 --> 05:50:41.959
to be a hundred candles, and you're going to blow

2127
05:50:42.159 --> 05:50:52.520
each one out individually, one by one, starting at one hundred.

2128
05:50:53.599 --> 05:51:05.520
As I count down all way down to one, and

2129
05:51:05.639 --> 05:51:14.479
each time I say a number, you can imagine that

2130
05:51:14.680 --> 05:51:21.080
candle in front of you, and I'd like you to

2131
05:51:21.200 --> 05:51:40.599
actually physically gently blow that candle out, just it's not

2132
05:51:41.000 --> 05:51:52.080
big blows, just a gentle, and that candle will extinguish.

2133
05:51:56.759 --> 05:52:01.360
And then I'll say the next number as we move down,

2134
05:52:04.599 --> 05:52:11.080
and you can just blow that one out as well.

2135
05:52:17.040 --> 05:52:25.560
And as we move down the numbers, you'll find yourself

2136
05:52:26.680 --> 05:52:35.319
feeling more and more relaxed, and if you need to sleep,

2137
05:52:36.200 --> 05:52:48.319
you'll also find yourself becoming incredibly tired and sleepy. In fact,

2138
05:52:48.479 --> 05:52:58.520
you may struggle to blow out all one hundred of

2139
05:52:58.680 --> 05:53:17.080
these candles as you feel more and more deeply relaxed,

2140
05:53:23.759 --> 05:53:41.759
more and more deeply tired, and the further you go down,

2141
05:53:44.400 --> 05:53:58.040
the more your mind starts to drift. You may find

2142
05:53:58.439 --> 05:54:12.799
that you stop listening to me after a while. And

2143
05:54:13.040 --> 05:54:17.159
even though there may be background sounds where you are,

2144
05:54:22.080 --> 05:54:28.240
you'll be aware of those sounds at the moment.

2145
05:54:33.240 --> 05:54:33.720
Be me.

2146
05:54:37.240 --> 05:54:44.080
Start to just not even notice them.

2147
05:54:48.400 --> 05:54:49.040
At all.

2148
05:54:51.639 --> 05:55:05.599
Because they're unimportant. Where I am, I've got the sounds

2149
05:55:05.680 --> 05:55:12.479
of the birds, there's horrors, the pigeon who likes to

2150
05:55:12.560 --> 05:55:19.119
say hello sometimes, and there's the odd plane that goes by,

2151
05:55:22.159 --> 05:55:35.599
maybe traffic and trains in the distance, but none of

2152
05:55:35.639 --> 05:55:49.759
that seems important whatsoever. More candles you blow out, the

2153
05:55:49.919 --> 05:56:06.720
less important anything is. More handles you blow out, the

2154
05:56:06.959 --> 05:56:19.919
further seemed to move away from sounds and.

2155
05:56:22.439 --> 05:56:23.919
From general.

2156
05:56:26.919 --> 05:56:38.119
Date days. Stuff seems to just move away on its own.

2157
05:56:43.439 --> 05:56:54.479
You feel more calma with every candle you blow out,

2158
05:57:04.319 --> 05:57:10.240
guiding you the next number.

2159
05:57:13.080 --> 05:57:14.400
Do you hear me say?

2160
05:57:21.479 --> 05:57:33.720
And then you blow that candle out to so easy,

2161
05:57:38.599 --> 05:57:59.240
so simple. We're gonna start by introducing the first candle.

2162
05:58:02.880 --> 05:58:21.680
She's a hundred fast candles, one hundred. When you blow

2163
05:58:22.000 --> 05:58:41.560
that candle out, you'll find immediately a slight change in

2164
05:58:41.799 --> 05:58:50.000
how you feel, as well as a real sense of

2165
05:58:52.560 --> 05:59:21.319
positivity growing within you, relaxation and sleepiness expanding. Starting with

2166

Six can you, I can do? Oh can do seven

2200
06:55:57.279 --> 06:57:07.119
two ten four. Let go of all of those thoughts, worries,

2201
06:57:07.400 --> 06:57:13.520
concerns about the past, thoughts about the future, and even

2202
06:57:15.000 --> 06:57:19.360
things you've been thinking about today. Just let it all

2203
06:57:19.439 --> 06:57:25.639
go because none of it is useful in this moment.

2204
06:57:30.560 --> 06:57:45.959
This is your opportunity to just focus on feeling relaxed,

2205
06:57:50.240 --> 06:57:56.680
allowing yourself to get in touch with that natural sense

2206
06:57:58.759 --> 06:58:06.880
of peace that we all have within us. It's available

2207
06:58:06.959 --> 06:58:11.799
for everyone. It just sometimes takes a little bit of

2208
06:58:11.919 --> 06:58:19.319
effort to set up the right time and place in

2209
06:58:19.560 --> 06:58:25.840
order for you to just let go. Because when you

2210
06:58:26.040 --> 06:58:33.799
do decide to let go and relax, that's what your

2211
06:58:33.840 --> 06:58:42.560
body starts to do because you've chosen. You've chosen to

2212
06:58:43.000 --> 06:58:50.119
just allow your body to unwind and your mind starts

2213
06:58:50.200 --> 06:58:57.680
to slow down, and it's a nice feeling. It's a

2214
06:58:57.759 --> 06:59:02.000
nice feeling at the beginning, just to know that you

2215
06:59:02.479 --> 06:59:12.759
have chosen to decide to relax deeply, and because you've

2216
06:59:12.880 --> 06:59:21.360
made that decision, your body will just follow suit. Because

2217
06:59:21.439 --> 06:59:26.080
sometimes all the muscles in your body need is just

2218
06:59:26.400 --> 06:59:35.639
permission from you to relax. Because so often we're busy,

2219
06:59:35.919 --> 06:59:40.119
we're going from here to there, we're walking around, and

2220
06:59:40.200 --> 06:59:47.560
we're doing stuff, and the body doesn't have any time

2221
06:59:47.799 --> 06:59:56.200
or space to really relax deeply. So it kind of

2222
06:59:56.279 --> 07:00:01.840
waits for you to lead the way, waits for your permission.

2223
07:00:06.200 --> 07:00:12.680
And when you do give your permission, when you give

2224
07:00:12.759 --> 07:00:19.040
to say so we you say okay, it's time for

2225
07:00:19.159 --> 07:00:28.799
your body to let go completely and relax totally. Your

2226
07:00:28.840 --> 07:00:38.319
body just follows. It's like a breath of relief. Ah good,

2227
07:00:38.439 --> 07:00:45.319
I can now relax. That feeling at the end of

2228
07:00:45.400 --> 07:00:48.680
a day, of a very physical day that you may

2229
07:00:48.759 --> 07:00:52.560
experience in the past, but you get home and you

2230
07:00:52.799 --> 07:00:56.520
just sit down on a chair, maybe you kick your

2231
07:00:56.639 --> 07:01:02.720
shoes off and not Ah feels so nice knowing that

2232
07:01:02.840 --> 07:01:07.119
you don't have to get up again for a little while,

2233
07:01:07.159 --> 07:01:10.880
at least, if you choose, you can just sit there

2234
07:01:11.000 --> 07:01:23.560
for maybe an hour to It feels blissful, and just

2235
07:01:23.759 --> 07:01:28.799
by sitting down like that, your body knows that it's

2236
07:01:28.919 --> 07:01:34.479
time to relax. Your body has been given permission from

2237
07:01:34.560 --> 07:01:44.599
you because it's a mindset. In your mind, you're prepared

2238
07:01:47.080 --> 07:01:56.400
to let go of everything and just completely allow all

2239
07:01:56.840 --> 07:02:05.200
the stress of your body to evap right. Any tensions

2240
07:02:05.520 --> 07:02:24.360
can just gradually vanish. It's almost like magic, really, because

2241
07:02:24.720 --> 07:02:31.240
that sense of relaxation in your body, it's a very

2242
07:02:31.400 --> 07:02:38.159
natural state. It's not something unusual. It may feel unusual

2243
07:02:38.479 --> 07:02:41.400
when you first start to relax, if you if you

2244
07:02:41.479 --> 07:02:46.720
haven't really spent a lot of time focusing and giving

2245
07:02:46.759 --> 07:02:52.000
yourself this space to let go completely and relax, they

2246
07:02:52.200 --> 07:03:00.400
seem almost alien, but it isn't. It's actually the most

2247
07:03:00.720 --> 07:03:06.840
natural thing in the world to let go completely, to

2248
07:03:07.000 --> 07:03:17.279
relax totally, the most natural thing in the world to

2249
07:03:17.439 --> 07:03:29.919
allow yourself to feel really calm in your mind. And

2250
07:03:30.040 --> 07:03:37.759
it is almost like a literal unwinding. It's like you

2251
07:03:37.919 --> 07:03:46.720
press a button and all the tension just releases, and

2252
07:03:46.799 --> 07:03:50.639
it's like a wheel, like a cog, like the inside

2253
07:03:50.680 --> 07:03:54.319
of a clock, just unwinding. And it's almost like you

2254
07:03:54.439 --> 07:04:00.319
could see the little wind up knob that's used just

2255
07:04:00.479 --> 07:04:04.639
going the opposite way that you choose to wind it up,

2256
07:04:07.439 --> 07:04:16.759
and the energy that premetic stress for energy gradually winding down,

2257
07:04:18.000 --> 07:04:25.360
losing its power, losing its strength as a sense of

2258
07:04:25.520 --> 07:04:37.319
relaxation becomes stronger and deeper, and you may find a

2259
07:04:37.479 --> 07:04:44.720
the more relaxed you feel, that your mind starts to wonder,

2260
07:04:47.880 --> 07:04:53.720
maybe just seem to stop listening to me for a while,

2261
07:04:55.360 --> 07:05:00.680
Your mind goes somewhere else, and in you realize you're

2262
07:05:00.759 --> 07:05:05.959
listening to me again, and that was just your mind

2263
07:05:06.119 --> 07:05:16.400
to drifting to sleep, which is quite natural, because sometimes

2264
07:05:16.639 --> 07:05:23.639
when we're stressed and tense, we're not mean I actually

2265
07:05:23.759 --> 07:05:28.680
be aware of what we need, what we physically or

2266
07:05:28.799 --> 07:05:39.040
emotionally need in this moment. But when you allow your

2267
07:05:39.119 --> 07:05:44.880
body and mind to relax completely and you let go

2268
07:05:45.000 --> 07:05:54.040
of all thoughts, concerns, worries, ideas, all letting them go,

2269
07:05:55.080 --> 07:06:03.479
allow them to drop onto the floor. When you start

2270
07:06:03.599 --> 07:06:12.080
to get in touch with the feelings of such relaxation,

2271
07:06:15.880 --> 07:06:22.439
this feels so nice, to be in touch with the

2272
07:06:22.720 --> 07:06:31.799
calmness of the different body parts as they become looser

2273
07:06:33.560 --> 07:06:47.159
and looser. Even your breathing seems easier and more natural, effortless,

2274
07:06:50.560 --> 07:06:54.479
as that cool air enters through your mouth or nose

2275
07:06:55.720 --> 07:07:06.919
into your lungs and comfort and relaxation, and then just

2276
07:07:07.080 --> 07:07:16.400
breathing out any excess remain intentional stress from every part

2277
07:07:16.639 --> 07:07:24.000
of your body and mind. And as you start to

2278
07:07:24.119 --> 07:07:32.479
focus on your mind, maybe you notice that things have

2279
07:07:32.639 --> 07:07:39.119
come to a standstill or maybe just much much lower

2280
07:07:39.880 --> 07:07:49.560
than before, because your mind is not really needed when

2281
07:07:49.759 --> 07:07:57.799
listening to my voice, which allows your mind to relax

2282
07:08:00.080 --> 07:08:07.880
us as deep as your body, and that synchronicity between

2283
07:08:09.439 --> 07:08:18.680
the relaxation of your body and relaxation of your mind

2284
07:08:21.000 --> 07:08:30.959
let you know that feeling completely calm, loose, and relaxed

2285
07:08:33.439 --> 07:08:41.919
really is a great healing experience fear.

2286
07:08:44.240 --> 07:08:44.959
And has.

2287
07:08:49.240 --> 07:08:57.680
So many positive benefits for your body, mind, and your life.

2288
07:09:00.360 --> 07:09:07.000
To be able to let over everything and to relax

2289
07:09:08.200 --> 07:09:19.159
completely in all parts of your body and mind. Even

2290
07:09:19.240 --> 07:09:34.560
your boneses are raxed, all your muscles are raxed, even

2291
07:09:34.840 --> 07:09:48.560
the skin that covers your body is relaxed. Every hair.

2292
07:09:51.520 --> 07:09:52.080
That you have.

2293
07:09:53.840 --> 07:10:11.400
Is also deeply relaxed. Then your brain really starts to

2294
07:10:11.639 --> 07:10:13.759
feel the benefits.

2295
07:10:15.000 --> 07:10:15.360
Of this.

2296
07:10:16.959 --> 07:10:29.119
Healing relaxation. And then as you focus on the inside

2297
07:10:29.279 --> 07:10:34.520
of your scalp where your brain is, you can start

2298
07:10:35.080 --> 07:10:44.880
to realize and notice the benefits of your brain relaxing deeply,

2299
07:10:49.279 --> 07:10:59.319
and as your brain continues to relax sends those messages

2300
07:11:01.040 --> 07:11:03.680
to the rest of your body.

2301
07:11:05.360 --> 07:11:07.119
And your mind.

2302
07:11:08.759 --> 07:11:31.560
To re relax even more deeply, relaxy more completely, letting

2303
07:11:31.799 --> 07:11:43.520
go of any remaining forces or concens allowed them just

2304
07:11:43.759 --> 07:11:50.319
to drop onto the floor because they're no longer necessary

2305
07:11:51.560 --> 07:12:00.880

07:17:37.919 --> 07:17:38.840
Everything.

2329
07:17:43.080 --> 07:17:49.639
I'm gonna do a body scan, focusing on firstly how

2330
07:17:49.720 --> 07:17:55.040
you feel in your body, not trying to change how

2331
07:17:55.119 --> 07:18:00.919
you feel, not trying to relax, not trying to move

2332
07:18:01.000 --> 07:18:07.880
away from any discomfort or stress or tension, just accepting,

2333
07:18:09.439 --> 07:18:14.520
observing and accepting how you feel in the different parts

2334
07:18:14.599 --> 07:18:21.240
of your body, just allowing yourself to be exactly as

2335
07:18:21.319 --> 07:18:32.799
you are, to notice to get in touch with how

2336
07:18:32.880 --> 07:18:39.840
you actually feel in this moment. So I'm going to

2337
07:18:39.959 --> 07:18:51.279
start off by focusing on your hands. Just be aware

2338
07:18:51.319 --> 07:18:59.759
of your hands. I'd like you to move your hands around,

2339
07:19:01.200 --> 07:19:06.799
just maybe move your fingers a little bit. I've been

2340
07:19:06.959 --> 07:19:13.279
enclosing your hands very gently, just so that you can

2341
07:19:15.240 --> 07:19:21.680
get in touch with how your hands and your fingers

2342
07:19:21.959 --> 07:19:42.479
fell with very very slow movements Focusing now on your feet,

2343
07:19:46.560 --> 07:19:49.840
and if you can just do kind of an equivalent

2344
07:19:50.560 --> 07:19:54.880
with your feet is you've just done with your hands,

2345
07:19:56.240 --> 07:20:05.119
Maybe turn in your ankles, moving your feet around, moving

2346
07:20:05.240 --> 07:20:15.240
your toes gently but only very gently and very slowly,

2347
07:20:18.200 --> 07:20:33.599
noticing how your feet feel in this moment. Focusing now

2348
07:20:33.840 --> 07:20:40.880
and your eyes, and I like you to just focus

2349
07:20:41.000 --> 07:20:46.479
on your eyelids. Maybe you can open and close your

2350
07:20:46.560 --> 07:20:51.040
eyes a couple of times to really get in touch

2351
07:20:51.439 --> 07:20:54.840
with how you feel when you do close your eyes.

2352
07:20:57.000 --> 07:21:03.400
The muscle changes in your eyes when you do close them,

2353
07:21:06.240 --> 07:21:12.639
maybe raising your eyebrows. It stretches the tops of your eyes,

2354
07:21:15.880 --> 07:21:24.279
perhaps squinting your eyes, scrunching up your eyes just so

2355
07:21:24.439 --> 07:21:32.840
you can hear it again, touch with all aspects of

2356
07:21:34.040 --> 07:21:52.200
how your eyes feel. Right now. Now focus in on

2357
07:21:52.360 --> 07:21:58.759
your thighs, and it just starts you to gently tense

2358
07:21:59.000 --> 07:22:08.919
your thighs, just very very gently, just enough so you

2359
07:22:09.080 --> 07:22:22.720
can become more atchuned to the physical sensation of your

2360
07:22:22.840 --> 07:22:28.240
upper legs, the front of your thighs, and the backs

2361
07:22:28.319 --> 07:22:42.599
of your thighs. Noticing and observing how your thighs fear.

2362
07:22:43.919 --> 07:22:56.880
Right now, moving your focus to the back of your neck,

2363
07:23:00.599 --> 07:23:07.200
just noticing the back of your neck, the muscles, and

2364
07:23:07.360 --> 07:23:10.319
of course they lead to the side of your neck.

2365
07:23:11.799 --> 07:23:16.919
They also lead to the top of your back, which

2366
07:23:17.080 --> 07:23:22.439
leads to your shoulders. So as your focus on the

2367
07:23:22.639 --> 07:23:28.200
back of your neck, maybe you can move your head

2368
07:23:29.119 --> 07:23:36.880
gently upwards as if you're looking up. Maybe moving your

2369
07:23:36.959 --> 07:23:44.759
head down as if you're looking down. Perhaps moving your

2370
07:23:44.840 --> 07:23:52.840
head side to side, right to left, but only very

2371
07:23:54.240 --> 07:24:03.360
slowly and very gently. I'm not trying to force anything.

2372
07:24:05.159 --> 07:24:14.319
It has to be very very gentle, just so you

2373
07:24:14.479 --> 07:24:27.959
can be more in touch with the feelings, with the sensations,

2374
07:24:28.159 --> 07:24:37.360
the physical sensations of how the back of your neck feels.

2375
07:24:39.119 --> 07:24:54.520
Right now, as we now focus on the tops of

2376
07:24:54.639 --> 07:25:01.119
your arms, the parts where your biceps and triceps are

2377
07:25:02.080 --> 07:25:10.200
between your elbow and your shoulders, should focus on those parts,

2378
07:25:11.200 --> 07:25:16.880
the tops of your arms. You may like to just

2379
07:25:17.680 --> 07:25:23.520
tense them, but very very gently.

2380
07:25:25.000 --> 07:25:26.119
And slowly.

2381
07:25:28.680 --> 07:25:37.639
See you're straining or put in any pressure whatsoever on

2382
07:25:37.799 --> 07:25:38.479
your arms.

2383
07:25:41.159 --> 07:25:43.639
It's just so that you can.

2384
07:25:46.080 --> 07:25:53.279
Gain more of a sense of how your upper arms

2385
07:25:54.840 --> 07:26:06.759
are feeling in this moment, and just noticing as you gently,

2386
07:26:08.919 --> 07:26:18.520
very gently and slowly tighten the muscles and then let go,

2387
07:26:22.799 --> 07:26:31.200
notice how the tops of your arms feel right now

2388
07:26:39.360 --> 07:26:50.159
as a now focus on your stomach, the area the

2389
07:26:50.279 --> 07:26:56.520
lower abdomen area below your belly button. Move it all

2390
07:26:56.560 --> 07:27:03.759
the way down to your hips, just above your grind.

2391
07:27:10.119 --> 07:27:17.319
Maybe you're able to tense these muscles in the area

2392
07:27:18.080 --> 07:27:33.319
very very gently and slowly, if that's a difficult thing

2393
07:27:33.520 --> 07:27:39.919
to do, and maybe you can just move your body,

2394
07:27:42.560 --> 07:27:47.520
pushing your stomach up, maybe moving a little bit to

2395
07:27:47.599 --> 07:27:54.599
the side using your hips, just so you can get

2396
07:27:55.040 --> 07:28:03.840
more in tune with how your lower abdomen area.

2397
07:28:07.360 --> 07:28:09.400
Is feeling.

2398
07:28:11.759 --> 07:28:29.319
In this moment. Just noticing the physical sensations or your

2399
07:28:29.479 --> 07:28:48.439
lower abdomen as you move your attention to your mouth,

2400
07:28:53.799 --> 07:29:02.000
notice in your lips and inside your mouth, the teeth,

2401
07:29:03.119 --> 07:29:19.240
your guns, your tongue, Just noticing how your tongue in

2402
07:29:19.319 --> 07:29:29.000
your mouth feels. It may help by moving your tongue

2403
07:29:30.360 --> 07:29:37.319
around your mouth, moving it to your left, maybe pressing

2404
07:29:37.400 --> 07:29:44.080
it gently against the side of your mouth, and then

2405
07:29:44.520 --> 07:29:49.400
to the right, gently to the side of your mouth,

2406
07:29:52.520 --> 07:29:58.040
perhaps pressing up against the top of your mouth, and

2407
07:29:58.159 --> 07:30:07.000
then down lean against the bottom of your mouth, always

2408
07:30:07.959 --> 07:30:17.919
very slowly and a very very gentle.

2409
07:30:22.400 --> 07:30:23.599
So that you can.

2410
07:30:27.159 --> 07:30:39.479
Be aware of how you feel in your mouth area.

2411
07:30:50.759 --> 07:31:10.680
Now I'm going to focus on your wrists, and I'm

2412
07:31:10.680 --> 07:31:19.479
gonna ask you to maybe just rotate your wrists by

2413
07:31:19.599 --> 07:31:30.400
moving your hands in a circular motion very gently and slowly,

2414
07:31:33.200 --> 07:31:51.240
just so that you can feel the sensations that you

2415
07:31:51.759 --> 07:32:07.080
are currently experiencing in your wrists. Perhaps move in your

2416
07:32:07.319 --> 07:32:24.360
hands up and down again very very gently and slowly,

2417
07:32:33.360 --> 07:32:59.520
very gentzl and slow. As we now start to observe

2418
07:33:03.720 --> 07:33:15.240
your lower back. The bad part is just above your

2419
07:33:15.520 --> 07:33:32.159
hips where your coxis are a whole area which also

2420
07:33:32.520 --> 07:33:39.520
really does include the sides of your body because those

2421
07:33:39.680 --> 07:33:50.319
muscles are very much connected. There's those muscles also move

2422
07:33:50.680 --> 07:33:59.400
into your hip area connecting to your buttocks the side

2423
07:33:59.599 --> 07:34:14.400
of your hips, and if you're physically able to do so,

2424
07:34:16.680 --> 07:34:27.840
maybe you can very gently just movebody ever so slightly,

2425
07:34:30.159 --> 07:34:36.680
very slowly some side decide.

2426
07:34:39.759 --> 07:34:40.639
Just enough.

2427
07:34:45.880 --> 07:35:04.759
To gauge how you feel in your lower back. Perhaps

2428
07:35:04.880 --> 07:35:18.880
it even move your hips gently up and down, gently

2429
07:35:19.319 --> 07:35:33.599
and slowly in order to be in touch with the

2430
07:35:33.880 --> 07:35:57.959
physical sensations of your lawer back. As we now move.

2431
07:36:02.520 --> 07:36:03.919
Your attention.

2432
07:36:07.360 --> 07:36:15.080
To your jaw, the area from your chin all the

2433
07:36:15.119 --> 07:36:22.479
way up so near where your ears are. The hole

2434
07:36:22.959 --> 07:36:23.720
of your jaw.

2435
07:36:33.959 --> 07:36:34.680
You can just.

2436
07:36:36.720 --> 07:36:43.400
If it's okay to do so. Gently open your mouth,

2437
07:36:46.319 --> 07:36:57.880
not wide, no stretching, just very gently and slowly opening

2438
07:36:58.040 --> 07:37:11.119
your mouth in closing your mouth very gently and slowly

2439
07:37:20.720 --> 07:37:34.400
so you can be in touch with how your jaw feels.

2440
07:37:37.799 --> 07:38:06.200
Now, No to sit now.

2441
07:38:08.959 --> 07:38:21.799
Your chest area, and you don't need to do anything

2442
07:38:23.759 --> 07:38:30.639
to move your chest because it moves every time you breathe,

2443
07:38:35.720 --> 07:38:49.799
and it moves very gently and slowly automatically with each breath.

2444
07:38:50.200 --> 07:38:51.119
You tache.

2445
07:38:57.799 --> 07:39:15.680
As you focus on m how your chest fields when

2446
07:39:15.840 --> 07:39:47.520
you breathe, move in your focus.

2447
07:39:49.040 --> 07:39:51.159
To forms.

2448
07:39:53.000 --> 07:40:06.319
Your elbows. M Maybe you're able to very gently.

2449
07:40:07.720 --> 07:40:09.880
And slowly.

2450
07:40:11.599 --> 07:40:20.159
Tense the muscles in your forearms, and when you do that,

2451
07:40:20.639 --> 07:40:53.799
you can feel your elbows as well, very gently and slowly, gently.

2452
07:40:56.720 --> 07:40:58.599
And softly.

2453
07:41:02.240 --> 07:41:40.639
Up saving your forearms and dollpoys. Now focus of the

2454
07:41:40.799 --> 07:41:52.639
rest of your back. Your upper back in the middle,

2455
07:41:54.240 --> 07:42:14.279
the middle of your back again this part of your body. News.

2456
07:42:16.520 --> 07:42:26.159
Also every time you pray. You may not notice that.

2457
07:42:28.360 --> 07:42:40.479
Usually mas you observe your upper back in the middle

2458
07:42:40.599 --> 07:42:52.720
of your back, you can really feel that gentle.

2459
07:42:57.959 --> 07:43:00.360
And h.

2460
07:43:04.799 --> 07:43:54.119
Moment. Moving your focus into your area. Your buttees, your brain,

2461
07:43:56.799 --> 07:44:31.639
there's muscles and those bones in your midsection. Just noticing

2462
07:44:34.040 --> 07:44:54.319
how your hips feel. Right now, you can very very

2463
07:44:54.959 --> 07:45:09.720
gently move your hips, maybe side to side, very gently

2464
07:45:10.000 --> 07:46:06.639
and slowly, very gently, softly, slowly, everything starts to slow down,

2465
07:46:13.119 --> 07:46:18.799
including the thoughts in your mind and your mind itself

2466
07:46:22.000 --> 07:46:28.680
just starts to gradually. It doesn't have to be instant,

2467
07:46:28.759 --> 07:46:36.759
but just gradually starting too. It's almost like time is

2468
07:46:37.200 --> 07:46:48.319
streight chin. It's a slower pace to maybe what you're

2469
07:46:48.680 --> 07:46:56.279
used to in your day to day life. It's a

2470
07:46:56.560 --> 07:47:23.479
slower movement of energy, very small movements which make up

2471
07:47:23.840 --> 07:47:31.439
the larger movements, which is always the case. Now, when

2472
07:47:31.479 --> 07:47:36.639
you move your hand, it might seem like it's one movement,

2473
07:47:36.720 --> 07:47:44.680
but it's lots of minute different muscles moving in accordance

2474
07:47:44.799 --> 07:47:55.959
with each other. And what happens in this space that

2475
07:47:56.159 --> 07:48:04.159
we're sharing is we move from.

2476
07:48:06.880 --> 07:48:09.560
That big.

2477
07:48:13.959 --> 07:48:31.000
Movement into those smaller movements. Starting to focus on how

2478
07:48:31.119 --> 07:48:38.400
your body feels, not just as a whole, not just oh,

2479
07:48:38.439 --> 07:48:42.720
i'm feel in this way. I'm feeling stressed or tense,

2480
07:48:42.959 --> 07:48:48.360
or I'm feeling relaxed and calm, I'm feeling this way,

2481
07:48:48.520 --> 07:48:55.400
I'm feeling that way. Starting to notice that your body

2482
07:48:59.639 --> 07:49:09.360
beans to present to you small feelings around your body,

2483
07:49:15.880 --> 07:49:28.000
small physical sensations in your legs, whether pleasurable or not.

2484
07:49:33.400 --> 07:49:42.720
Maybe resisting the temptation to label them or to judge them.

2485
07:49:44.159 --> 07:49:50.200
Those feelings, just thinking them, thinking about them is just

2486
07:49:50.439 --> 07:50:07.400
being neutral, just feelings, not being particularly concerned, but just

2487
07:50:07.799 --> 07:50:22.520
noticing what your body is telling you. The feelings in

2488
07:50:22.599 --> 07:50:28.799
your arms, instead of feeling the hole of the arm,

2489
07:50:30.200 --> 07:50:39.159
maybe notice those individual feelings for all those different muscles

2490
07:50:39.400 --> 07:50:52.000
and the skin, the hairs of your arms, all the

2491
07:50:52.159 --> 07:51:08.680
internal parts of your arms, the veins, the bones, just

2492
07:51:08.840 --> 07:51:15.040
being aware of maybe your elbow on your right arm

2493
07:51:17.799 --> 07:51:25.959
has a certain feeling, maybe your left wrist also has

2494
07:51:29.159 --> 07:51:49.919
its own individual physical sensation. Or about your forearm on

2495
07:51:50.040 --> 07:52:02.240
your right arm, your right forearm, there may not be

2496
07:52:02.400 --> 07:52:10.400
any particular feeling that you could even give a name to,

2497
07:52:14.159 --> 07:52:18.479
may not feel like anything other than just a feeling.

2498
07:52:19.400 --> 07:52:31.479
You know it's there. The feelings in your shoulders, perhaps

2499
07:52:31.560 --> 07:52:35.279
your shoulders when you think about them, kind of almost

2500
07:52:35.479 --> 07:52:42.159
like they're the same, you know, the same feeling, almost

2501
07:52:42.319 --> 07:52:46.959
like both of your shoulders are just one thing. Of

2502
07:52:47.119 --> 07:52:58.840
course they're not. And when you focus on your left shoulder,

2503
07:53:01.560 --> 07:53:06.759
and then on your right shoulder, maybe find that you

2504
07:53:08.119 --> 07:53:13.200
move the muscles a little bit, maybe tense the muscles gently,

2505
07:53:18.799 --> 07:53:51.159
noticing the difference in each shoulder, your lower back, the

2506
07:53:51.319 --> 07:53:55.439
left side of your lower back and the right side

2507
07:53:55.599 --> 07:54:06.240
of your lower back. Of course that connection to your

2508
07:54:06.319 --> 07:54:19.639
buttocks and to your hips, and also moving up into

2509
07:54:19.759 --> 07:54:32.639
the middle of your back. And sometimes like right now,

2510
07:54:32.759 --> 07:54:37.560
actually when I focus on their part, when I focused

2511
07:54:37.599 --> 07:54:43.439
on my buttocks and then I focused on the middle

2512
07:54:43.479 --> 07:54:46.400
of my back, I almost felt like the muscles in

2513
07:54:46.479 --> 07:54:56.520
my lower back were being stretched very gently, just stretched

2514
07:54:56.560 --> 07:55:03.119
a little bit. Even though I wasn't doing anything to

2515
07:55:04.520 --> 07:55:10.240
try to stretch your lower back, it just seemed to happen.

2516
07:55:11.439 --> 07:55:29.040
The feeling of very gently stretching your lower back comes along.

2517
07:55:32.759 --> 07:55:56.080
I have feeling in your chest, just noticing what sensations

2518
07:55:57.680 --> 07:56:15.040
you are experience. It's in your chest right now. And

2519
07:56:15.119 --> 07:56:19.200
there's so much of the chest. Obviously there's the collar

2520
07:56:19.279 --> 07:56:23.080
bone leading to the chest. You've got the chest bone,

2521
07:56:26.360 --> 07:56:34.159
You've got the muscles in your chest. Of course, if

2522
07:56:34.159 --> 07:56:42.319
you're female, there's possibly the breasts. If you're male, you've

2523
07:56:42.360 --> 07:56:48.720
got the different well why not that different these days,

2524
07:56:48.759 --> 07:56:55.880
but there may be more muscles at the top of

2525
07:56:55.959 --> 07:57:04.040
the chest the side underneath. It's pretty much the same

2526
07:57:04.840 --> 07:57:07.880
whether you're a man or a woman. There's muscles there,

2527
07:57:09.240 --> 07:57:14.360
muscles that stretch out to your back, as well as

2528
07:57:14.479 --> 07:57:22.840
breast tissue which stretches and moves into your back, to

2529
07:57:23.040 --> 07:57:42.400
just being aware of your chest, being with whatever feeling

2530
07:57:42.599 --> 07:58:02.400
there is in your chest. When I noticed that, I

2531
07:58:02.560 --> 07:58:10.479
focus on my chest, I feel it in my back

2532
07:58:10.680 --> 07:58:14.439
and my upper back. I mean, I guess the obvious

2533
07:58:14.599 --> 07:58:22.240
reason would be because you know, I'll breathe in in

2534
07:58:24.959 --> 07:58:28.119
then it stretches my chest and my back at the

2535
07:58:28.159 --> 07:58:48.880
same time. It feels it feels okay, it doesn't feel

2536
07:58:51.560 --> 07:58:55.840
I got a little bit of pain in my right chest,

2537
07:58:58.119 --> 07:59:01.360
a little bit not pain, but a little discomfort, maybe

2538
07:59:03.159 --> 07:59:11.639
stiffness possibly, I don't know. I noticed my shoulders also

2539
07:59:13.360 --> 07:59:20.560
wanting to flex for some reason. I think that's probably

2540
07:59:20.680 --> 07:59:29.319
part of my upper back, that connection between my shoulders

2541
07:59:29.479 --> 07:59:33.599
my oper back, because I can move my shoulders and

2542
07:59:34.720 --> 07:59:41.360
stretch the muscles in my back, moving the shoulders backwards

2543
07:59:42.360 --> 07:59:47.880
or up, which then moves I think it's the scapulous

2544
07:59:50.520 --> 08:00:08.200
in your back. It feels quite nice. Actually, a good

2545
08:00:08.279 --> 08:00:12.400
thing about this is you can if you want to, you.

2546
08:00:12.599 --> 08:00:13.959
Can just.

2547
08:00:17.479 --> 08:00:29.159
Flex or stimulate the various muscles in your body gently

2548
08:00:30.639 --> 08:00:34.080
in order to get more of a sense of how

2549
08:00:34.200 --> 08:00:49.080
they feel. And when you're relaxing, when you do tense

2550
08:00:49.159 --> 08:00:53.080
and muscle and you let it go and you let

2551
08:00:53.159 --> 08:01:02.159
it relax, it relaxes way more then it would normally

2552
08:01:07.119 --> 08:01:12.360
that you have to feel that you're able to do that,

2553
08:01:13.959 --> 08:01:19.720
there's no point doing it if there's an issue with

2554
08:01:19.880 --> 08:01:25.279
the per part of your body. You need to be

2555
08:01:25.880 --> 08:01:38.840
gentle with yourself at all times when relaxing deeply. It's

2556
08:01:38.919 --> 08:01:54.680
important to be kind to yourself. As you notice your mind,

2557
08:01:59.040 --> 08:02:06.040
how much as your mind slowed down since we started

2558
08:02:07.439 --> 08:02:32.919
this recording, how came and peaceful is your mind right now?

2559
08:02:39.840 --> 08:02:45.200
We have nothing to think about and just my voice

2560
08:02:45.439 --> 08:02:55.319
to listen to, because you know, the intention behind this

2561
08:02:55.639 --> 08:03:04.759
recording is relaxation. At the very least, for you to

2562
08:03:05.040 --> 08:03:09.919
feel more relaxed at the end of the recording than

2563
08:03:10.000 --> 08:03:22.119
you did at the beginning. At the very least, your

2564
08:03:22.360 --> 08:03:33.639
mind to slow down as your body continues to relax,

2565
08:03:39.080 --> 08:03:49.919
because that's what you want to happen, that's what you

2566
08:03:50.639 --> 08:04:19.319
expect to happen. A relaxation, to fill your body, maybe

2567
08:04:19.720 --> 08:04:27.880
calm in your mind to the point of boredom. When

2568
08:04:27.919 --> 08:05:12.159
you start maybe to drift away, it's almost as if

2569
08:05:12.279 --> 08:05:21.560
you're moving further away from your body in your mind,

2570
08:05:24.000 --> 08:05:35.840
just leaving that there, kind of liking it an escape

2571
08:05:35.919 --> 08:05:41.000
pod in the spaceship a movie, a space movie, you

2572
08:05:41.080 --> 08:05:45.119
know when it gets a little part in it, since

2573
08:05:45.240 --> 08:06:10.840
the man far away from the spaceship safe dream continue

2574
08:06:16.279 --> 08:07:42.360
to relax, drifting so slow and be so so, ra o,

2575
08:07:42.639 --> 08:08:16.959
be so, and focusing on the feeling of those individual

2576
08:08:17.520 --> 08:08:27.240
parts of your body that are relaxing one by one.

2577
08:08:34.919 --> 08:08:47.240
You may find that every now and then you realize

2578
08:08:47.439 --> 08:08:58.319
that you aren't listening to my voice because your mind

2579
08:08:58.880 --> 08:09:13.639
started to imagine something different, maybe started to almost move

2580
08:09:13.840 --> 08:09:22.919
into some kind of a dreamy state. And then you

2581
08:09:23.040 --> 08:09:29.840
become aware of my voice again. And even though you

2582
08:09:30.840 --> 08:09:37.000
may want to focus on my voice, you may also

2583
08:09:37.759 --> 08:09:51.560
wish to allow your mind to just drift naturally into

2584
08:09:51.680 --> 08:10:13.119
that space of comfort and safety. As you feel more

2585
08:10:13.759 --> 08:10:27.000
comfort spreading through your body like a warm blanket covering

2586
08:10:27.159 --> 08:10:41.159
you gently, keeping your body at just the perfect temperature.

2587
08:10:51.599 --> 08:11:01.959
And even if you can hear background sounds, they just

2588
08:11:03.360 --> 08:11:20.279
don't seem to matter anymore. There's that sensor. Peace spreads

2589
08:11:20.880 --> 08:11:34.560
through your mind like a gentle breeze, yet strong enough

2590
08:11:34.840 --> 08:11:51.080
to blow away all negativity, strong enough to remove from

2591
08:11:51.159 --> 08:12:00.919
your mind any anxiety or stress that was there before,

2592
08:12:09.240 --> 08:12:18.119
and blow away any other thoughts or feelings that just

2593
08:12:19.959 --> 08:12:44.360
don't fit with the sense relaxation that is feeling your

2594
08:12:44.439 --> 08:13:07.319
body end your mind. Unless you focus on your mind

2595
08:13:09.479 --> 08:13:14.799
and count down from ten down to one, and with

2596
08:13:15.159 --> 08:13:41.080
each number you hear, your mind will become slightly more relaxed,

2597
08:13:43.799 --> 08:13:52.159
just just slightly so. From ten down to nine, just

2598
08:13:52.319 --> 08:13:59.599
a slight movement. From nine down to eight, just another

2599
08:14:01.520 --> 08:14:16.279
small change in how you feel. Eight down to seven.

2600
08:14:19.040 --> 08:14:24.439
That feeling is a gap, almost like a gap that

2601
08:14:24.799 --> 08:14:34.479
starts to get wider, the gap between those feelings that

2602
08:14:34.680 --> 08:14:41.599
you used to have in your mind compared to the

2603
08:14:41.759 --> 08:14:49.279
feelings you have there growing now, feelings of comfort and

2604
08:14:49.560 --> 08:15:01.240
security and confidence, and the gap becomes wider. Eight down

2605
08:15:01.360 --> 08:15:08.159
to seven, seven down to six, And when you get

2606
08:15:08.200 --> 08:15:15.240
to five, your mind will start to have a certain

2607
08:15:16.680 --> 08:15:28.240
physical sensation, most like there's a magnet outside of your

2608
08:15:28.360 --> 08:15:35.159
head sucking the tension and the stress and any remaining

2609
08:15:36.279 --> 08:15:42.639
feelings that you don't want sucking them out through your skull.

2610
08:15:48.400 --> 08:15:53.520
And in down to four you can start to really

2611
08:15:54.119 --> 08:16:07.159
experience that sense of not just didness, but space, a

2612
08:16:07.319 --> 08:16:16.040
place full of fresh air, the place where you can stretch.

2613
08:16:19.560 --> 08:16:22.200
It's almost as if as you go down to four

2614
08:16:23.000 --> 08:16:31.840
and three, your mind is expanding, with this sense of

2615
08:16:32.479 --> 08:16:44.720
peace and tranquility growing as it moves down to When

2616
08:16:44.759 --> 08:16:54.159
you get to one, your mind just feels exactly how

2617
08:16:54.279 --> 08:17:10.360
you want to feel. It's almost perfect feeling, maybe a

2618
08:17:13.520 --> 08:17:14.759
sensation that.

2619
08:17:16.360 --> 08:17:17.799
You'd like to keep.

2620
08:17:20.799 --> 08:17:31.639
A place that's safe, where nothing can affect you at all,

2621
08:17:43.319 --> 08:17:48.080
and you can stay in that a space of comfort

2622
08:17:48.159 --> 08:17:57.840
and confidence, confident in your own ability to create this

2623
08:17:58.799 --> 08:18:04.799
space and this feeling of comfort within your own mind

2624
08:18:06.360 --> 08:18:16.000
just by counting from ten down to one. And this

2625
08:18:16.240 --> 08:18:20.599
is something that you can do yourself when you're on

2626
08:18:20.720 --> 08:18:28.439
your own, the time when you can maybe sit down,

2627
08:18:29.439 --> 08:18:40.279
maybe just for a few minutes, close your eyes, just

2628
08:18:40.639 --> 08:18:53.159
count slowly from ten down to one and re experience

2629
08:18:54.919 --> 08:19:05.240
these feelings in your mind. And when you feel that

2630
08:19:05.439 --> 08:19:20.560
way in your mind, your body copies your mind, and

2631
08:19:20.759 --> 08:19:27.040
a feeling is spread through your spine and your nervous

2632
08:19:27.159 --> 08:19:35.599
system into every part of your body, travels through your bloodstream,

2633
08:19:41.159 --> 08:20:01.680
heathing and relaxing every particle of your existence. Now we

2634
08:20:01.799 --> 08:20:10.560
can we can practice this a few times before the

2635
08:20:10.759 --> 08:20:15.240
end of the recording, and then you can practice on

2636
08:20:15.400 --> 08:20:22.880
your own. And each time you count for ten about one,

2637
08:20:27.599 --> 08:20:38.639
the feelings of comfort, calmness, and deep deep relaxation become

2638
08:20:39.040 --> 08:20:54.880
stronger and deeper feeling your mind and your brain. With

2639
08:20:55.159 --> 08:21:04.639
these positive chemicals, the spread throughout your body, relaxing you

2640
08:21:06.599 --> 08:21:12.799
so quickly, relaxing your whole body and mind.

2641
08:21:15.439 --> 08:21:16.279
So very.

2642
08:21:17.840 --> 08:21:29.080
Very easily just by counting from ten down to one.

2643
08:21:34.080 --> 08:21:34.919
That's what we're going to do.

2644
08:21:35.319 --> 08:21:35.479
Now.

2645
08:21:36.319 --> 08:21:40.279
I'm going to count from ten down to one. I'd

2646
08:21:40.479 --> 08:21:44.799
like you to repeat the number after me. So when

2647
08:21:44.840 --> 08:21:53.400
I say ten, you can just repeat to yourself ten.

2648
08:21:59.040 --> 08:22:08.360
Just notice, be aware of how you feel in your

2649
08:22:08.520 --> 08:22:18.040
mind and your body. Then when I say nine, you

2650
08:22:18.159 --> 08:22:33.959
can beat to yourself nine again, noticing the increase in

2651
08:22:34.200 --> 08:22:42.119
comfort and calmness in your mind and in your body.

2652
08:22:48.119 --> 08:22:57.560
The same when I say eight, When I say seven, six,

2653
08:23:00.040 --> 08:23:14.439
I want to say five, four, When I say three, two,

2654
08:23:18.840 --> 08:23:23.720
and lastly you want to say one, you can beat

2655
08:23:24.080 --> 08:23:25.000
that number.

2656
08:23:32.479 --> 08:23:32.599
Now.

2657
08:23:32.720 --> 08:23:38.319
Of course, when you do this on your own without

2658
08:23:38.439 --> 08:23:43.400
listening to me. You can say the numbers or whatever

2659
08:23:45.040 --> 08:23:53.479
speed that you feel is necessary for you, so you

2660
08:23:53.639 --> 08:23:59.400
can adapt. So if you feel you want to say

2661
08:23:59.520 --> 08:24:05.400
the number ten down to one faster than I do,

2662
08:24:07.159 --> 08:24:09.680
then you go ahead and do that. Or if you

2663
08:24:09.919 --> 08:24:13.880
feel when you do it yourself that you'd like to

2664
08:24:14.119 --> 08:24:22.759
have more space between the numbers, maybe take a lot

2665
08:24:23.000 --> 08:24:24.759
longer to.

2666
08:24:24.880 --> 08:24:26.040
Get from ten.

2667
08:24:27.959 --> 08:24:36.200
All the way down to one, that's your choice also

2668
08:24:36.520 --> 08:24:49.159
to do. So I'm going to count from ten down.

2669
08:24:49.040 --> 08:24:57.959
To one, and when I get to one, that will

2670
08:24:58.080 --> 08:24:59.959
be the end of this record.

2671
08:25:02.720 --> 08:25:06.360
The m's of course, you're listening with music, and the

2672
08:25:06.520 --> 08:30:03.159
music will continue. Ten nine eight seven, twenty ninety eighty seventeen,

2673
08:30:07.919 --> 08:30:38.599
sixteen fifteen, fourteen, thirteen, twelve eleven ten.

2674
08:30:43.080 --> 08:30:48.279
Nine eight.

2675
08:30:52.759 --> 08:31:34.240
Seven, six, five, four three two one. Now open your eyes,

2676
08:31:37.919 --> 08:31:45.080
noticing how you physically feel having counted down from twenty

2677
08:31:45.240 --> 08:31:52.840
to one, allowing stress and tension to leave through your

2678
08:31:52.919 --> 08:31:58.560
fingertips and your tastes. And as you focus on your fingertips,

2679
08:32:00.159 --> 08:32:06.279
maybe they feel a little bit tingly, which is I

2680
08:32:06.360 --> 08:32:11.159
suppose quite an understanding considering the tension has been exiting

2681
08:32:11.279 --> 08:32:20.080
your body through your fingertips. So now I'm going to

2682
08:32:20.159 --> 08:32:27.520
count from twenty down to one again. This time you're

2683
08:32:27.520 --> 08:32:33.159
going to feel relief of tension and stress in the

2684
08:32:33.240 --> 08:32:45.360
anxiety that you may have leaving through your stomach. Just

2685
08:32:45.919 --> 08:32:50.639
leaving through your stomach, almost as if it's just releasing

2686
08:32:52.279 --> 08:32:57.599
the whole of your stomach. You'll enable to just above

2687
08:32:57.680 --> 08:33:01.479
your chest or below your chest rather so surround in

2688
08:33:01.599 --> 08:33:06.759
your belly button area, the whole area. You can feel

2689
08:33:06.959 --> 08:33:12.319
the tension of your body where it's left, just releasing

2690
08:33:13.520 --> 08:33:16.840
from that area, and you may notice that your stomach

2691
08:33:16.880 --> 08:33:24.159
will become very relaxed as I countdown from twenty down

2692
08:33:24.240 --> 08:34:46.639
to one now twenty nineteen, eighteen, seventeen, sixteen, fifteen, fourteen, thirteen, twelve, eleven, ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five, four,

2693
08:34:50.759 --> 08:35:07.520
three two what And you can open your eyes again

2694
08:35:07.599 --> 08:35:10.240
if you choose, or you can just keep them closed

2695
08:35:11.000 --> 08:35:16.680
because it feels relaxing. Just notice how your stomach feels.

2696
08:35:18.119 --> 08:35:21.759
I notice there's your focus. Just do a little scan

2697
08:35:22.000 --> 08:35:28.560
of your body. Just notice how your body feels, focusing

2698
08:35:31.279 --> 08:35:38.479
on your upper body, your back, chest, stomach, legs, arms, hands, feet,

2699
08:35:41.520 --> 08:35:48.439
just noticing, and you know you may start to feel

2700
08:35:50.919 --> 08:35:55.159
more a sense of tiredness which may be the reason

2701
08:35:55.240 --> 08:35:59.360
you listening to this according because you.

2702
08:36:00.840 --> 08:36:01.200
Like to.

2703
08:36:02.840 --> 08:36:15.080
Let go completely of everything and dread off into a nice, natural, calm.

2704
08:36:15.119 --> 08:36:17.319
Relaxing sleep.

2705
08:36:24.880 --> 08:36:34.279
So now we're going to focus on your forehead, and

2706
08:36:34.360 --> 08:36:37.200
if you choose, you can incorporate your eyes in this

2707
08:36:37.520 --> 08:36:44.040
focus as well. So your forehead and your eyes, it's

2708
08:36:44.119 --> 08:36:48.599
that whole area basically, almost as if you were wearing

2709
08:36:48.639 --> 08:36:52.400
a mask, you know, like a I don't know, a

2710
08:36:52.560 --> 08:36:59.520
Batman mask or something, or I'm trying to zorrow or something,

2711
08:36:59.560 --> 08:37:01.639
you know, the kind of mask that covers your eyes

2712
08:37:02.200 --> 08:37:08.639
but also covers quite a lot of the forehead. Focusing

2713
08:37:08.720 --> 08:37:11.360
on that area because that's the area that we're now

2714
08:37:11.520 --> 08:37:17.560
going to release tension and stress from your mind and

2715
08:37:17.680 --> 08:37:21.520
your brain. From your mind, and any tension that you

2716
08:37:21.680 --> 08:37:26.400
may have remaining your face, in your neck and your jaw,

2717
08:37:27.759 --> 08:37:34.240
your eyes, your forehead, or your scalp. So basically any

2718
08:37:34.560 --> 08:37:40.520
tension within your head area, including your mind and your brain,

2719
08:37:44.319 --> 08:37:48.360
and that's going to be released through your forehead and

2720
08:37:48.439 --> 08:37:56.240
your eyes. As I count down again from twenty down

2721
08:37:56.319 --> 08:39:19.799
to one now twenty nineteen, eighteen, seventeen, sixteen, fifteen, fourteen, thirteen, twelve, eleven, ten, eight, seven, six, five,

2722
08:39:25.439 --> 08:39:53.080
four three two one noticing, and she scanned your face

2723
08:39:54.520 --> 08:40:02.680
with jaw, your eyes, the cheap bons, your ears, your forehead,

2724
08:40:03.639 --> 08:40:04.959
your scalp.

2725
08:40:06.119 --> 08:40:09.759
Your neck, the back of your neck, in the front

2726
08:40:09.840 --> 08:40:10.599
of your neck.

2727
08:40:11.319 --> 08:40:13.639
The side of your neck, and your throat.

2728
08:40:16.520 --> 08:40:16.639
Hm.

2729
08:40:19.919 --> 08:40:31.040
Noticing being aware of the comfort increased, be in the relaxation,

2730
08:40:33.159 --> 08:40:38.040
not just in your head and neck and mind, also

2731
08:40:38.560 --> 08:40:45.959
the rest of your body. Just that it is how

2732
08:40:46.159 --> 08:40:52.080
loose and calm you feel, and how easily.

2733
08:40:53.759 --> 08:40:55.279
It is to just let go.

2734
08:40:58.119 --> 08:41:22.240
Completely, let go completely, how easily. So I'm going to

2735
08:41:22.360 --> 08:41:26.080
do vals. I want to focus on the top of

2736
08:41:26.159 --> 08:41:36.319
your head and am We're going to allow every last

2737
08:41:38.240 --> 08:41:44.279
piece of tension or stress of mind, be lingering or

2738
08:41:44.520 --> 08:41:49.080
hiding in your body or mind or head.

2739
08:41:50.439 --> 08:41:50.880
To just.

2740
08:41:52.560 --> 08:41:58.959
Be sucked out at the top of your head released

2741

08:42:10.040 --> 08:42:16.119
bit cloud of God your head almost like a whirlpool, and.

2743
08:42:16.200 --> 08:42:20.919
This is can suck that tension out the top of

2744
08:42:21.000 --> 08:42:21.720
your head.

2745
08:42:23.799 --> 08:42:25.319
And just take it away.

2746
08:42:26.959 --> 08:42:27.599
The good.

2747
08:42:30.560 --> 08:42:34.319
To focus. Imagine an opening on the top of your

2748
08:42:34.400 --> 08:42:40.959
head with a tension and stress and any remaining issues

2749
08:42:41.159 --> 08:42:44.040
may be worries of concerns that have no.

2750
08:42:44.400 --> 08:42:44.919
Use to you.

2751
08:42:45.080 --> 08:42:48.880
Now you can all be sucked down at the top

2752
08:42:48.919 --> 08:42:55.360
of your head and taken away. As I count down

2753
08:42:55.439 --> 08:44:35.919
again from twenty down to one now twenty nineteen, eighteen, seventeen, sixteen, fifteen, fourteen, thteen, twelve, even, ten, nine, eight, seven, six,

2754
08:44:40.240 --> 08:45:25.279
five four three. Wha breathe, noticing how you feel, how

2755
08:45:25.439 --> 08:45:33.720
relaxed and calm you physically and mentally feel right now,

2756
08:45:39.360 --> 08:45:49.439
how peaceful your mind feels. It feels so nice to

2757
08:45:49.680 --> 08:45:58.279
just let go, to give yourself some space to breathe easily,

2758
08:46:00.200 --> 08:46:08.279
to think calmly, and just to take a break from

2759
08:46:10.080 --> 08:46:16.439
all that pointless worry and concerns about things that you

2760
08:46:16.520 --> 08:46:26.599
don't need to think about right now, because this is

2761
08:46:26.799 --> 08:46:31.639
your time to let go. This is your space to

2762
08:46:31.959 --> 08:46:42.439
enjoy feeling deeply relaxed, peaceful in your mind, relaxed in

2763
08:46:42.560 --> 08:46:52.279
your body. They can feel so good, so nice to

2764
08:46:52.639 --> 08:47:00.520
just not have to do anything, to be able to

2765
08:47:01.840 --> 08:47:11.720
really enjoy that serenity that comes with letting go completely,

2766
08:47:13.880 --> 08:47:28.240
that peacefulness that comes with being in this peaceful space.

2767
08:47:32.759 --> 08:47:37.279
And you can keep this sense of calmness for as

2768
08:47:37.439 --> 08:47:49.040
long as you choose, If you choose to drift on

2769
08:47:49.560 --> 08:47:54.040
into deep healing natural sleep.

2770
08:47:55.319 --> 08:47:56.200
And you can do that.

2771
08:48:00.000 --> 08:48:08.119
It's completely up to you. And you can keep this

2772
08:48:08.439 --> 08:48:14.279
feeling of calmness physically, mean in your mind as long

2773
08:48:14.759 --> 08:48:31.759
as you choose to feel completely relaxed, completely relaxed. And

2774
08:48:31.759 --> 08:48:37.560
I'd like you to make up your mind that you're

2775
08:48:37.599 --> 08:48:48.639
going to relax, and I want to explore that with

2776
08:48:48.799 --> 08:48:56.159
you what it feels like when you actually decide that

2777
08:48:56.240 --> 08:49:00.799
you're going to relax. I'm not forcing yourself, but giving

2778
08:49:00.840 --> 08:49:06.840
yourself that. Yes, it is a command, really, isn't it.

2779
08:49:06.919 --> 08:49:14.560
When you're telling yourself relax in a gentle but firm way,

2780
08:49:15.439 --> 08:49:21.639
that only you can really tell yourself in that way.

2781
08:49:22.520 --> 08:49:24.479
You can't really have someone else saying to you, now

2782
08:49:24.520 --> 08:49:30.959
it relax, relax, you know, and it needs to be gentle,

2783
08:49:31.159 --> 08:49:34.639
but you can't. Someone else can't really have the same

2784
08:49:38.119 --> 08:49:44.200
the same kind of influence or power that you have

2785
08:49:45.400 --> 08:49:57.240
over your own physicality, over how you feel, because when

2786
08:49:57.400 --> 08:50:04.080
you say it to yourself, it means more. It's personal,

2787
08:50:04.400 --> 08:50:10.040
and your brain and your unconscious mind and your body

2788
08:50:10.799 --> 08:50:17.000
listens to what you say. So, for example, we'll test

2789
08:50:17.080 --> 08:50:17.400
it out.

2790
08:50:18.000 --> 08:50:18.840
We'll do a little.

2791
08:50:18.720 --> 08:50:22.520
Test, a few little tests along the way, and you

2792
08:50:22.599 --> 08:50:28.439
can get more of an idea of the force, the

2793
08:50:28.599 --> 08:50:35.599
positive force that you can have in creating a sense

2794
08:50:35.720 --> 08:50:39.599
of comfort and relaxation in your body and your mind

2795
08:50:40.799 --> 08:50:53.360
quite quickly just by you telling yourself to relax. So

2796
08:50:53.720 --> 08:50:56.919
I'm going to start by it's focus on your hands.

2797
08:51:00.560 --> 08:51:02.759
To focus on your hands and just tell your hands

2798
08:51:03.119 --> 08:51:09.080
to relax, and just say relax. As you focus on

2799
08:51:09.159 --> 08:51:16.119
your hands, you could say my hands are relaxed, or

2800
08:51:16.159 --> 08:51:20.319
I want my hands to relax. I think if you

2801
08:51:20.439 --> 08:51:27.240
actually do it directly by focusing and imagining that your

2802
08:51:27.400 --> 08:51:31.200
hands can hear what you're saying. You know they've got

2803
08:51:31.240 --> 08:51:36.959
little ears, which is a little weird. So talking to

2804
08:51:37.119 --> 08:51:53.919
your hands and just say relax, no dessin your hands,

2805
08:51:53.959 --> 08:52:09.520
start to relax. Now focus on your eyes and tell

2806
08:52:09.560 --> 08:52:12.880
your eyes to relax. You just say in the same

2807
08:52:13.000 --> 08:52:22.319
word relax and find the right tone for you. You know,

2808
08:52:22.520 --> 08:52:29.400
I might say relax, but you you might say relax

2809
08:52:30.560 --> 08:52:35.919
or relax. You know you might say it differently to yourself,

2810
08:52:36.919 --> 08:52:43.439
and that's important for you to gauge what feels right

2811
08:52:43.840 --> 08:52:50.119
for you. To just tell your eyes to relax. Whilst

2812
08:52:50.279 --> 08:52:54.279
focusing on your eyes, your eyelids, the muscles around your eyes,

2813
08:52:55.159 --> 08:53:05.159
your eyebrows, and just tell your eyes directly relax now.

2814
08:53:31.959 --> 08:53:42.119
Now I just did that myself, and sometimes you may

2815
08:53:42.240 --> 08:53:46.880
feel that you need a bit more time for the

2816
08:53:47.000 --> 08:53:50.680
different parts to relax, you know, because I start talking

2817
08:53:50.720 --> 08:53:56.040
again and maybe that part hasn't relaxed fully. But what

2818
08:53:56.319 --> 08:53:58.880
happen is that we'll just continue to relax.

2819
08:53:58.599 --> 08:53:59.599
Even though I'm talking.

2820
08:54:01.200 --> 08:54:06.959
And that's happened with my eyes. Something else I noticed

2821
08:54:07.080 --> 08:54:11.759
is when I started focusing on my eyes, that actually

2822
08:54:12.520 --> 08:54:15.360
almost became They got worse before they got better in

2823
08:54:15.439 --> 08:54:19.240
a way. So I felt a degree of tension growing

2824
08:54:19.360 --> 08:54:25.040
in my eyes and then disappearing. So I think what

2825
08:54:25.240 --> 08:54:28.119
that was really it was just me becoming more aware

2826
08:54:29.720 --> 08:54:34.279
of the tension that was already there that I wasn't.

2827
08:54:35.279 --> 08:54:39.200
I wasn't focused on it before, so I wasn't really

2828
08:54:39.959 --> 08:54:57.319
acknowledging it or really conscious to those feelings. Yeah, my

2829
08:54:57.479 --> 08:55:01.639
eyes is still continuing to relax, as well as my hands. Actually,

2830
08:55:05.119 --> 08:55:10.520
my hands have got a certain kind of energy, like

2831
08:55:10.759 --> 08:55:16.000
not buzzing, but I can kind of funeral degree of

2832
08:55:16.279 --> 08:55:22.040
energy in my hands. Maybe that's where the tension is

2833
08:55:22.159 --> 08:55:34.119
being released. Maybe that's causing that The next part I

2834
08:55:34.240 --> 08:55:35.560
think we should focus.

2835
08:55:35.319 --> 08:55:36.240
On the back of the neck.

2836
08:55:36.959 --> 08:55:40.880
That's a part which is quite often well for me,

2837
08:55:41.360 --> 08:55:44.400
holds tension. I don't know about it for yourself, but

2838
08:55:44.560 --> 08:55:48.799
I think it's quite a standard place where tension is

2839
08:55:48.919 --> 08:55:55.759
sometimes held. So, and I'm doing exactly what you're doing

2840
08:55:56.200 --> 08:55:58.319
as you do it as well, so I'm telling my

2841
08:55:59.240 --> 08:56:02.680
body part to relax as well. So if you tell

2842
08:56:02.720 --> 08:56:05.520
your neck at the back of your neck, focus on

2843
08:56:05.639 --> 08:56:12.159
the back of your neck and just say relax in

2844
08:56:12.279 --> 08:56:15.400
your own words and your own tone, in your own voice.

2845
08:56:16.040 --> 08:56:17.040
You can say out.

2846
08:56:16.880 --> 08:56:20.520
Loud, or you can just say it to yourself internally.

2847
08:56:21.439 --> 08:56:25.959
But you're focusing and you're saying it literally to the.

2848
08:56:26.040 --> 08:56:28.759
Back of your neck, as if the back of your

2849
08:56:28.840 --> 08:56:35.799
neck can actually hear what you're saying. So do that now,

2850
08:56:36.040 --> 08:56:40.279
Just say relax to the back of your neck, and

2851
08:56:40.400 --> 08:56:41.119
I'll do the same.

2852
08:57:19.959 --> 08:57:20.080
Now.

2853
08:57:20.159 --> 08:57:25.200
What I noticed, and you may have had similar thing is,

2854
08:57:26.000 --> 08:57:28.560
even though I was focusing on the back of my neck,

2855
08:57:33.599 --> 08:57:40.240
other parts started to I don't know, show themselves to

2856
08:57:40.400 --> 08:57:43.720
me or maybe because they want to be relaxed as well.

2857
08:57:43.840 --> 08:57:48.279
But I started noticing the feelings in my shoulders at

2858
08:57:48.360 --> 08:57:54.080
tension in my shoulders and in my upper back. Whether

2859
08:57:54.200 --> 08:57:58.360
that was because my back of my neck was saying

2860
08:58:00.040 --> 08:58:04.840
pretty much, okay, it's the other parts that need attention,

2861
08:58:11.240 --> 08:58:14.279
but my lobe, my back of my neck is still relaxing.

2862
08:58:15.720 --> 08:58:18.200
But I just became more aware of other parts that

2863
08:58:18.479 --> 08:58:20.520
needed attention.

2864
08:58:22.759 --> 08:58:25.439
Now, this might happen, and it's not.

2865
08:58:27.080 --> 08:58:29.599
It doesn't mean that it's going wrong. It just means

2866
08:58:30.439 --> 08:58:36.319
you're being notified of more places that also.

2867
08:58:36.200 --> 08:58:37.360
Want to feel relaxed.

2868
08:58:40.639 --> 08:58:43.639
So I'm going to focus on my upper back.

2869
08:58:44.959 --> 08:58:46.360
So you can do the same.

2870
08:58:47.880 --> 08:58:52.479
Even if you don't have any feelings of tension that

2871
08:58:52.599 --> 08:58:57.200
are obvious in your upper back. You just focus on

2872
08:58:57.279 --> 08:59:02.720
your back and the whole area from the shoulder blades

2873
08:59:02.919 --> 08:59:07.479
down to the middle of your back and the spine.

2874
08:59:09.000 --> 08:59:16.759
And with me, it's more the shoulder blades are more. Yeah,

2875
08:59:16.880 --> 08:59:22.000
that's the parts that are really sort of given me.

2876
08:59:23.720 --> 08:59:24.040
That not.

2877
08:59:25.959 --> 08:59:27.759
That it needs to relax in the sounds.

2878
08:59:27.799 --> 08:59:31.200
Gonna ask that part to relax, and you can do

2879
08:59:31.319 --> 08:59:31.639
the same.

2880
08:59:31.720 --> 08:59:58.479
Now relapsing up the back, there's something strange happened there,

2881
08:59:59.000 --> 09:00:01.639
And this often happens.

2882
09:00:01.720 --> 09:00:02.599
I've been doing this for.

2883
09:00:05.479 --> 09:00:13.479
Sixteen years or something, and often I'm one surprised that amazed,

2884
09:00:13.520 --> 09:00:19.439
really bad. There can be a feeling. So when I

2885
09:00:19.599 --> 09:00:22.919
was focusing on the back of my neck, my op

2886
09:00:23.119 --> 09:00:28.000
back was starting to feel quite stressed and in need

2887
09:00:28.159 --> 09:00:33.520
of attention. As soon as I started talking to you

2888
09:00:33.759 --> 09:00:38.959
about my upper back and talking about, you know, getting

2889
09:00:39.000 --> 09:00:43.759
ready to ask the other back to relax, why the

2890
09:00:43.840 --> 09:00:49.439
back already started to relax. It's almost as if it

2891
09:00:49.599 --> 09:01:00.360
doesn't need to hear the words, just needs attention, needs

2892
09:01:00.439 --> 09:01:12.520
to be noticed. And that is something that often happens

2893
09:01:12.959 --> 09:01:20.159
in this type of situation is when you start to

2894
09:01:20.319 --> 09:01:25.319
relax a couple of parts of your body, as we've

2895
09:01:25.400 --> 09:01:31.599
done with our hands, eyes and the eyelids, and.

2896
09:01:31.840 --> 09:01:38.680
Now back of the neck, top of the bag.

2897
09:01:40.439 --> 09:01:43.759
Up the bag, the rest of the body seems to

2898
09:01:43.959 --> 09:01:52.639
just take notice and decide in its own way to

2899
09:01:52.880 --> 09:01:59.840
start relaxing. Other parts of your body start to just

2900
09:02:01.680 --> 09:02:09.040
become looser. I suppose it's kind of like a bit

2901
09:02:09.080 --> 09:02:13.639
of an avalanche, you know, a little ball starts rolling

2902
09:02:13.840 --> 09:02:16.479
and before you know it, the whole of your body

2903
09:02:16.680 --> 09:02:28.799
is completely relaxed and can't And if you focus on

2904
09:02:28.919 --> 09:02:41.279
your face, you focus on your eyes, the eyelids, your eyebrows,

2905
09:02:41.479 --> 09:02:50.520
and the muscles around your eyes. Maybe you start to

2906
09:02:50.680 --> 09:02:55.560
notice that your forehead is more relaxed than it was.

2907
09:02:57.639 --> 09:03:02.959
Maybe your face is more relaxed. I would say my

2908
09:03:03.319 --> 09:03:07.159
entire face is a lot more relaxed than it was.

2909
09:03:18.479 --> 09:03:24.279
So you're going to focus now on your shoulders again,

2910
09:03:24.520 --> 09:03:28.880
just like before. Just tell your shoulders. I mean you

2911
09:03:29.360 --> 09:03:31.319
can do them in the digity. You can do the

2912
09:03:31.479 --> 09:03:32.880
right shoulder and your shoulder.

2913
09:03:34.439 --> 09:03:36.599
I just gen do both at the same time.

2914
09:03:38.639 --> 09:03:41.880
Just tell your shoulders as you focus on them in

2915
09:03:42.000 --> 09:03:48.119
your mind, focus on how you feel. Maybe you can

2916
09:03:48.479 --> 09:03:55.200
see them in your mind's eye. Just tell your shoulders

2917
09:03:58.959 --> 09:04:50.439
to relax as nice as they relax. I did you notice,

2918
09:04:53.080 --> 09:04:59.520
especially with my bank, is the connection between the different

2919
09:04:59.599 --> 09:05:10.720
parts the back, the shoulders, the neck being all connected

2920
09:05:11.240 --> 09:05:17.639
and being such a large part of your body, it's

2921
09:05:17.680 --> 09:05:26.000
almost hard to separate them from each other. And my

2922
09:05:26.159 --> 09:05:28.560
lower back has started to relax on the son.

2923
09:05:34.759 --> 09:05:35.919
Maybe I'm going too.

2924
09:05:35.919 --> 09:05:41.880
Slow and that could be an issue because we all

2925
09:05:42.000 --> 09:05:48.360
go at different speeds. And the idea at the beginning

2926
09:05:48.439 --> 09:05:50.759
of this recording was for you to be able to

2927
09:05:51.040 --> 09:06:07.400
just say to yourself, relax without focusing on any particular

2928
09:06:07.599 --> 09:06:13.360
part of your body. Because when you know that tearing

2929
09:06:13.440 --> 09:06:25.839
your hands to relax, Your hands relax. You tell your

2930
09:06:26.720 --> 09:06:34.040
eyelids and your eyes, the muscles around your eyes and

2931
09:06:34.120 --> 09:06:48.000
your eyebrows to relax, and they relax. You tell the

2932
09:06:48.680 --> 09:07:08.120
back of your neck to relax, and it relaxes, until

2933
09:07:08.160 --> 09:07:27.480
you're out the back to relax, and it relaxes.

2934
09:07:35.199 --> 09:07:35.919
I tell your.

2935
09:07:35.959 --> 09:08:14.919
Shoulders to relax, that they relax. And you told your

2936
09:08:15.000 --> 09:08:18.199
hands to relax. They relaxed, and.

2937
09:08:18.319 --> 09:08:19.879
They continued.

2938
09:08:21.040 --> 09:08:21.639
To relax.

2939
09:08:27.480 --> 09:08:33.120
And you told your eyelids, the muscles around your eyes,

2940
09:08:34.160 --> 09:08:39.599
your eyebrows to relax. They relaxed.

2941
09:08:42.599 --> 09:08:44.480
And continue.

2942
09:08:45.400 --> 09:08:46.000
To relax.

2943
09:08:52.360 --> 09:08:54.360
And he told the back of your neck.

2944
09:08:55.480 --> 09:09:01.279
Focus on the back of your neck and told it

2945
09:09:01.440 --> 09:09:21.000
to relax. It relaxed and continued to relax. And you

2946
09:09:21.120 --> 09:09:31.239
told your mulca back to relax, be relaxed and continued

2947
09:09:33.760 --> 09:09:47.559
to relax. That's what your shoulders. He told your shoulders

2948
09:09:47.639 --> 09:09:48.319
to relax.

2949
09:09:48.680 --> 09:09:49.199
In your.

2950
09:09:51.879 --> 09:10:00.959
Shoulders relaxed and continued to relax.

2951
09:10:06.639 --> 09:10:11.599
And it's not just that, It's.

2952
09:10:14.279 --> 09:10:18.680
That the rest of your body has also been listening,

2953
09:10:20.400 --> 09:10:26.480
and no relaxation has been spreading. So from your eyes,

2954
09:10:26.839 --> 09:10:34.239
the relaxations spread to your forehead, around your face, into

2955
09:10:34.319 --> 09:10:48.199
your skin, into your jaw into the front and sides

2956
09:10:48.279 --> 09:10:53.000
of your neck. I will way down your chest and stomach,

2957
09:11:00.080 --> 09:11:06.839
relaxed hands and shoulders and meats up through your arms,

2958
09:11:07.559 --> 09:11:15.639
relaxing the full arms, your upper arms, elbows, your wrists,

2959
09:11:19.319 --> 09:11:34.279
letting your own the lower back, the hips, but exploiting

2960
09:11:35.959 --> 09:11:45.080
and just starting to relax and continue even comfort spreading

2961
09:11:45.199 --> 09:11:46.440
through your legs.

2962
09:11:51.239 --> 09:11:54.559
All the way down to your ankles.

2963
09:11:59.199 --> 09:12:05.319
The tops your feet, the size of your feet, and the.

2964
09:12:05.400 --> 09:12:07.040
Bottoms of your feet.

2965
09:12:10.480 --> 09:12:11.919
Relaxing.

2966
09:12:14.879 --> 09:12:15.959
Into your toes.

2967
09:12:19.760 --> 09:12:22.279
Each tone relaxing.

2968
09:12:25.639 --> 09:12:45.800
Became release, and then your body relaxes more. Your mind

2969
09:12:47.440 --> 09:13:14.639
becomes slower, peaceful, to the point where if you choose to.

2970
09:13:14.800 --> 09:13:23.760
Call asleep, you can EASi do that.

2971
09:13:29.400 --> 09:13:32.879
Easy to doing.

2972
09:13:37.639 --> 09:13:40.000
Because there's nothing going on in your mind.

2973
09:13:43.720 --> 09:13:56.639
The phrase peaceful the body contains.

2974
09:14:00.120 --> 09:14:27.959
Relates with that connection between.

2975
09:14:27.760 --> 09:14:36.599
Your body relaxing the word you say to yourself relates

2976
09:14:43.040 --> 09:14:48.480
means that you don't need to focus on just one part.

2977
09:14:50.319 --> 09:14:51.720
You can just focus on.

2978
09:14:53.720 --> 09:14:55.040
Your entire body.

2979
09:15:01.559 --> 09:15:26.360
Saying the powerful word wakes, and there's those omniar sensations

2980
09:15:27.599 --> 09:15:41.760
of comfort spreading throughout your body, loostening and calming.

2981
09:15:43.800 --> 09:15:45.160
And healing.

2982
09:15:48.720 --> 09:15:50.760
Every part to your body.

2983
09:15:53.760 --> 09:15:56.760
Heaving war.

2984
09:15:59.360 --> 09:16:18.480
Who Like, all you need to do now is just

2985
09:16:20.400 --> 09:16:21.639
tell yourself.

2986
09:16:25.040 --> 09:16:39.319
Ya being beating.

2987
09:16:40.480 --> 09:16:41.559
Out THEO.

2988
09:16:54.559 --> 09:17:45.040
S starting el number twenty nineteen, eighteen seventeen, sixteen.

2989
09:18:01.199 --> 09:18:24.720
fIF four.

2990
09:18:55.239 --> 09:25:13.199
Es well, attatatata, attatatatatatata.

2991
09:28:00.400 --> 09:31:18.199
What three counting down from ten to one? Ten nine, eight, seven, six.

2992
09:31:20.160 --> 09:31:23.279
Five four.

2993
09:31:26.000 --> 09:31:29.559
Three two.

2994
09:31:32.000 --> 09:31:41.800
One? And maybe that was a bit too quick in

2995
09:31:42.000 --> 09:31:46.000
order to relax. Maybe it's a bit too fast for

2996
09:31:46.160 --> 09:31:55.919
you to notice the calming of your body, maybe even

2997
09:31:56.160 --> 09:31:59.800
a little bit of pressure there, Like you're counting down

2998
09:32:00.160 --> 09:32:02.879
ten to one. Would you expect me to do? Man,

2999
09:32:03.800 --> 09:32:07.480
expect me just to go with floppy just because you're

3000
09:32:07.559 --> 09:32:17.160
counting down. You try it again, but this time I'll

3001
09:32:17.199 --> 09:32:24.319
go this slower this time, and you focus on the

3002
09:32:24.440 --> 09:32:28.599
whole of your body before we focus on your legs.

3003
09:32:31.040 --> 09:32:41.959
Just notice how your body does start to feel more relaxed.

3004
09:32:47.440 --> 09:32:50.279
Every number that I count down.

3005
09:32:53.519 --> 09:33:29.919
Ten nine, eight, seven, six, five.

3006
09:33:40.080 --> 09:33:48.360
Four three.

3007
09:34:01.680 --> 09:34:02.279
Mm hmmm.

3008
09:34:22.680 --> 09:34:39.800
On you just notice how how you feel, generally, how

3009
09:34:39.879 --> 09:34:53.959
your body feels. It's not necessarily even about yeah, counting

3010
09:34:54.120 --> 09:35:01.239
down from ten to one. It's that space that you have,

3011
09:35:02.559 --> 09:35:24.959
that space between being active physically or mentally, just you know,

3012
09:35:25.760 --> 09:35:30.919
sitting or lying down, just being there, not doing anything,

3013
09:35:31.120 --> 09:35:35.839
not saying anything, not in deeding to think about anything.

3014
09:35:37.680 --> 09:35:41.360
So it opens up a space, you know, a bit

3015
09:35:41.440 --> 09:35:52.160
of a space, the gap. And the more I cam

3016
09:35:52.319 --> 09:35:59.839
down for a tent of work, the bigger that gap becomes. Yes,

3017
09:36:00.080 --> 09:36:12.400
there's that gap of calmness, of comfort and relaxation. It's

3018
09:36:12.440 --> 09:36:26.040
a nice feeling, and it moves those stresses or discomforts

3019
09:36:26.160 --> 09:36:39.000
physically or emotionally, moves them away, allows you.

3020
09:36:41.680 --> 09:36:42.199
To just.

3021
09:36:45.199 --> 09:36:45.839
Slow down.

3022
09:36:49.440 --> 09:36:51.599
So I'm going to count again from ten down to

3023
09:36:51.720 --> 09:37:01.800
one and notice that gap widening, the gap, And if

3024
09:37:01.879 --> 09:37:08.319
it widens, it's almost like that the stress and attention falls.

3025
09:37:08.199 --> 09:37:24.360
Into the gap. It gives you that distance.

3026
09:37:25.800 --> 09:37:26.599
And space.

3027
09:37:28.959 --> 09:37:34.360
Now ten.

3028
09:37:38.800 --> 09:38:18.680
Nine, eight, seven, six, five.

3029
09:38:29.720 --> 09:39:23.599
Four three, what.

3030
09:39:35.279 --> 09:39:36.080
And how did you?

3031
09:39:38.400 --> 09:39:39.680
What do you feel.

3032
09:39:41.599 --> 09:39:41.760
Now?

3033
09:39:54.559 --> 09:40:06.480
Can you notice? Do you feel in common? Are you

3034
09:40:06.720 --> 09:40:11.319
feeling more relaxed.

3035
09:40:33.199 --> 09:40:33.800
And were Now?

3036
09:40:34.000 --> 09:40:37.879
Focus on your legs, that's your lex.

3037
09:40:53.599 --> 09:41:13.760
We're just gonna start with focusing on your thighs. Of course,

3038
09:41:13.879 --> 09:41:18.760
it's not the most exciting thing to be doing, because

3039
09:41:22.199 --> 09:41:24.959
I'm sure like most of your body is not. I'm

3040
09:41:25.040 --> 09:41:37.400
not going on by now, just focusing on the hole

3041
09:41:37.519 --> 09:41:43.879
of your thighs, the tops of your thighs, the sides

3042
09:41:44.040 --> 09:41:50.480
of your thighs, the bottoms of your thighs, the outer

3043
09:41:50.720 --> 09:41:52.239
thighs and inner thighs.

3044
09:41:54.440 --> 09:41:58.360
Basically the hole of your fire that leads into your

3045
09:41:58.440 --> 09:42:13.360
hip and it goes down to your knee joint. Now

3046
09:42:13.480 --> 09:42:14.559
this is a big area.

3047
09:42:19.040 --> 09:42:24.720
It's a very heavy area, base strong, probably the strongest

3048
09:42:25.720 --> 09:42:28.559
muscles in your body or in your thighs.

3049
09:42:38.720 --> 09:42:39.599
But I don't think we.

3050
09:42:41.400 --> 09:42:47.279
Perhaps would give enough attention to addis.

3051
09:42:53.239 --> 09:42:54.199
Perhaps we do.

3052
09:42:55.720 --> 09:42:58.239
The knowledge down important.

3053
09:42:59.599 --> 09:43:00.959
Now Thus are.

3054
09:43:03.919 --> 09:43:04.760
Two alliance.

3055
09:43:16.279 --> 09:43:16.959
How much.

3056
09:43:19.400 --> 09:43:34.199
They actually dot us alter OurLives make it may seem

3057
09:43:34.319 --> 09:43:35.319
is that really weird?

3058
09:43:38.360 --> 09:43:44.519
I think that all of our body parts, especially addys

3059
09:43:45.519 --> 09:43:46.919
need some TLC.

3060
09:43:50.239 --> 09:44:11.559
I did Lutch thank you gratitude for what advice do

3061
09:44:11.839 --> 09:44:23.959
for us. And I notice may sound this strange, And

3062
09:44:24.080 --> 09:44:27.120
maybe you think, why am I sure that I should

3063
09:44:27.120 --> 09:44:30.160
be out in the garden hugging a tree or something.

3064
09:44:31.800 --> 09:44:38.400
Oh it's hard to set my crophone up on a tree.

3065
09:44:39.519 --> 09:44:42.559
I do indoors. Otherwise I would be outside of a

3066
09:44:42.639 --> 09:44:46.000
tree and I can't see the television in the tree.

3067
09:44:52.839 --> 09:44:58.279
You move down to your knees, getting such an important part,

3068
09:45:02.480 --> 09:45:07.639
And I think we don't necessarily I'll speak for myself here,

3069
09:45:10.120 --> 09:45:14.959
I don't necessarily appreciate all that one needs to do

3070
09:45:15.160 --> 09:45:17.319
for me until.

3071
09:45:18.559 --> 09:45:19.680
I have a problem with my.

3072
09:45:19.839 --> 09:45:26.319
Me occasion need I make my bash it, or it's

3073
09:45:26.480 --> 09:45:32.160
aching for some reason. It's then that I realize.

3074
09:45:32.839 --> 09:45:33.959
How much it does.

3075
09:45:35.599 --> 09:45:38.839
You have the benefit have been able to use my

3076
09:45:39.080 --> 09:45:48.199
legs about in the kind of physically disconflict is a

3077
09:45:48.319 --> 09:45:56.839
beautiful thing that's possibly not appreciating until it's temporary removed.

3078
09:45:58.120 --> 09:46:04.800
And that's comfort. H Don't you focus on the.

3079
09:46:07.160 --> 09:46:09.199
Regard as how your niece feel.

3080
09:46:12.239 --> 09:46:16.440
You can have that sense of gratitude.

3081
09:46:17.199 --> 09:46:20.000
And love to your needs they get.

3082
09:46:20.120 --> 09:46:34.919
You can still have that attention and addies. You can

3083
09:46:35.080 --> 09:46:47.839
notice how your bies feel. Maybe notice that relax more

3084
09:46:49.680 --> 09:47:01.839
deeply if you focus now bottoms, if you makes the

3085
09:47:02.000 --> 09:47:09.839
fields and card bottles of the Bibles between means and

3086
09:47:10.120 --> 09:47:14.599
think the cool way and the cause of encles.

3087
09:47:16.480 --> 09:47:17.839
So in quanta.

3088
09:47:22.959 --> 09:47:28.040
And anyone's head even like the slightest sprain.

3089
09:47:27.720 --> 09:47:33.160
Of the mencor is now and how much we think

3090
09:47:34.480 --> 09:47:34.879
now our.

3091
09:47:34.879 --> 09:47:36.080
Includes the quantity.

3092
09:47:42.000 --> 09:47:42.680
And it's kind of.

3093
09:47:42.720 --> 09:47:48.080
Strange in a way when you think that, you know logically,

3094
09:47:48.720 --> 09:47:51.519
lists are a lot of dinner than the best of

3095
09:47:51.559 --> 09:47:54.839
their arms, which is okay, it.

3096
09:47:54.879 --> 09:47:59.879
Doesn't I see any talking of that, just picking stuff up.

3097
09:48:01.400 --> 09:48:07.559
Five angles, so much dinner and the rest of their legs.

3098
09:48:14.000 --> 09:48:15.120
And from a piece its.

3099
09:48:15.080 --> 09:48:18.040
Perspective, the logical.

3100
09:48:17.720 --> 09:48:22.040
Move doesn't really make sense. For all this weight.

3101
09:48:23.480 --> 09:48:29.239
Would ultimately be resting on your ankles.

3102
09:48:29.800 --> 09:48:31.199
Then leading to your fate.

3103
09:48:36.279 --> 09:48:37.360
In area.

3104
09:48:38.599 --> 09:48:45.440
In bind. And it does so much great work.

3105
09:48:47.319 --> 09:48:58.639
Supports us sports, our body the like hops us to balance.

3106
09:49:00.559 --> 09:49:01.559
What shots.

3107
09:49:05.160 --> 09:49:13.599
Can't A man into my bow, but the.

3108
09:49:13.839 --> 09:49:23.279
Russes are cold. I stunger, I got th cop couses.

3109
09:49:24.279 --> 09:49:30.639
Nothing is doing okay, don't do it to me and

3110
09:49:30.959 --> 09:49:36.839
I can't matter. Get some work that's part passes.

3111
09:49:36.519 --> 09:49:46.480
As my shoes.

3112
09:49:57.800 --> 09:50:13.559
Sh oh god, what foot
