00:00:01.120 --> 00:00:09.439
Hello, and welcome to Jasonnewland dot com. My name's Jason Newland.

2
00:00:10.039 --> 00:00:18.920
Please pleigh, please pleigh, only listen when you can safely closeize.

3
00:00:22.600 --> 00:00:32.759
So this is let me boil your pain away. It's

4
00:00:32.840 --> 00:00:44.439
basically just me wabbling on about various things they can

5
00:00:44.560 --> 00:00:57.320
hopefully help to reduce the physical sensations of your chronic pain. Ultimately,

6
00:00:58.399 --> 00:01:05.519
I guess it's just I mean, it's very base. It

7
00:01:05.560 --> 00:01:17.040
could be a relaxation session, you know, just a distraction maybe,

8
00:01:17.760 --> 00:01:20.560
and only listen, of course, I said when you can

9
00:01:20.599 --> 00:01:25.560
safety close your eyes, but also with the permission of

10
00:01:25.599 --> 00:01:30.079
your doctor, because you do need to know the cause

11
00:01:30.519 --> 00:01:34.239
of the chronic pain. You need to know the cause

12
00:01:34.280 --> 00:01:37.920
of the pain basically before you listen. And I would

13
00:01:37.959 --> 00:01:44.719
advise that about any thing, any kind of real life

14
00:01:44.760 --> 00:01:48.640
therapy as well. Find out the cause first before you

15
00:01:48.680 --> 00:01:53.079
get any kind of treatment. Although this isn't treatment, and

16
00:01:53.519 --> 00:01:56.879
this is not a replacement for treatment. This is just

17
00:01:57.439 --> 00:02:03.239
a middle aged Englishman just talking. I saw this is

18
00:02:03.760 --> 00:02:09.599
if it helps, brilliant and I hope it does. But

19
00:02:09.680 --> 00:02:13.960
I'm not a replacement for anything else. The only thing

20
00:02:14.000 --> 00:02:17.719
I could really replace is, you know, if you had

21
00:02:17.719 --> 00:02:21.360
a really boring friend who used to talk to or

22
00:02:21.400 --> 00:02:25.400
listen to, because let's face it, maybe they just talked

23
00:02:25.479 --> 00:02:29.719
at you, and maybe they've moved away and you don't

24
00:02:29.759 --> 00:02:33.840
have contact with them anymore. I can be a replacement

25
00:02:33.879 --> 00:02:42.159
for that some boring person talks at you. Or if

26
00:02:42.159 --> 00:02:45.759
you've got someone that likes to eat all your chocolate

27
00:02:47.639 --> 00:02:50.080
and maybe they're not around anymore forever, reason, I can

28
00:02:50.120 --> 00:02:54.199
replace that person because I do or I love chocolate.

29
00:03:01.000 --> 00:03:03.800
I could go on, but I won't. I was gonna say,

30
00:03:03.800 --> 00:03:06.520
if you've got someone that maybe that you don't see anymore,

31
00:03:06.520 --> 00:03:10.360
that had a really weird beard, that's me as well.

32
00:03:10.479 --> 00:03:14.199
I'm thinking of growing my beard, like really big, like

33
00:03:14.280 --> 00:03:19.039
it was twenty twenty. It was so big even scared

34
00:03:19.080 --> 00:03:23.280
the cashier at the garage at the petrol station. She

35
00:03:23.639 --> 00:03:26.560
because I had I was trying to wear a mask,

36
00:03:26.639 --> 00:03:30.719
and a mask basically just didn't even cover it. It

37
00:03:30.800 --> 00:03:35.400
was just that the mask looked tiny, my head looked massive.

38
00:03:37.680 --> 00:03:40.520
And when I trimmed it, she said to me, I'm

39
00:03:40.560 --> 00:03:43.840
so glad you got rid of that beard. I used

40
00:03:43.879 --> 00:03:46.319
to get so scared when i'd see you walking up here.

41
00:03:47.439 --> 00:03:49.199
So it was just a beard, she said, yeah, but

42
00:03:49.240 --> 00:03:53.879
it was. It was just so wide. So what do

43
00:03:53.919 --> 00:03:58.560
you mean? She said, you were knocking things off the shelves.

44
00:03:59.639 --> 00:04:05.719
Eat dating a little bit. He said, you like people

45
00:04:05.840 --> 00:04:09.159
keeping their distance here, not because they had to, it's

46
00:04:09.199 --> 00:04:11.560
because I didn't have any choice. Because your beard was

47
00:04:11.919 --> 00:04:15.520
about six foot long. She went on a bit. She

48
00:04:15.599 --> 00:04:18.279
went over the top with this. It wasn't six foot long.

49
00:04:19.240 --> 00:04:22.120
It was quite big. There's there's actually a video of

50
00:04:22.160 --> 00:04:26.800
me on YouTube somewhere, a couple of videos with that beard,

51
00:04:26.920 --> 00:04:32.480
and it's really large, like really a big, fat beard.

52
00:04:32.600 --> 00:04:37.879
It was. Some may argue that's not relevant to the recording,

53
00:04:38.040 --> 00:04:43.800
and I would say, yeah, yeah, maybe maybe not. Depends.

54
00:04:43.920 --> 00:04:48.360
I might talk about beards, I might not talk about beards.

55
00:04:49.639 --> 00:04:54.399
I never know what I'm going to talk about. Oh yeah,

56
00:04:54.439 --> 00:04:57.639
So I have a Facebook group, Jason Newland's Boring Group

57
00:04:58.240 --> 00:05:00.480
if you want to get together with other people that

58
00:05:00.639 --> 00:05:04.959
like the recordings I do, and you can also send

59
00:05:05.000 --> 00:05:08.399
me messages on there. I've also got a YouTube channel

60
00:05:08.560 --> 00:05:14.680
where I now post every new recording I do, including

61
00:05:14.800 --> 00:05:19.439
all six versions without music, five and ten hours about

62
00:05:19.519 --> 00:05:24.920
music with music, five and ten with music. So that's

63
00:05:25.000 --> 00:05:28.600
the new thing I'm doing. It's just another place where

64
00:05:28.800 --> 00:05:38.120
you can listen to my podcasts and and my website

65
00:05:38.240 --> 00:05:41.879
Jasonnewland dot com. Well, by the way, the YouTube channel

66
00:05:41.959 --> 00:05:50.519
is at Jason Newland and you sew a website. All

67
00:05:50.560 --> 00:05:55.759
the latest recordings are on there and whenever, if you

68
00:05:55.800 --> 00:05:59.720
would like to ask me a question or submit a

69
00:05:59.759 --> 00:06:04.000
quequestion for the upcoming Q and A Friday, which I

70
00:06:04.040 --> 00:06:07.000
do every week, then please go on there and you

71
00:06:07.040 --> 00:06:10.319
can fill a form in such tiny little form with

72
00:06:10.439 --> 00:06:14.920
your question and your name. That's pretty much it, and

73
00:06:15.240 --> 00:06:20.560
I will whatever questions I get between each Friday, so

74
00:06:20.800 --> 00:06:25.120
between finishing the Friday and Friday recording and the next

75
00:06:25.279 --> 00:06:28.920
beginning of recording it, whatever questions I get during that

76
00:06:29.040 --> 00:06:33.759
week I will include, and I'll mention your name. I

77
00:06:33.800 --> 00:06:40.560
only mentioned first names, and I'll try and answer the question.

78
00:06:42.160 --> 00:06:45.600
Some could would argue that I perhaps don't answer the

79
00:06:45.720 --> 00:06:50.279
questions correctly, but there is no right and wrong way

80
00:06:50.319 --> 00:06:54.639
to answer a question you might ask, you know, for example,

81
00:06:54.680 --> 00:07:01.319
you might ask me what was the first first time

82
00:07:01.399 --> 00:07:06.480
I wore a tie and or the first time I

83
00:07:06.480 --> 00:07:11.879
wore a suit? And I might tell you about a

84
00:07:11.959 --> 00:07:17.160
bicycle that I had that got a puncture and I

85
00:07:17.199 --> 00:07:18.879
had to push it all the way up a hill.

86
00:07:23.360 --> 00:07:26.959
So there's no guaranteed that I'm going to necessarily focus

87
00:07:27.120 --> 00:07:30.439
on the question. I might get a little bit sidetracked.

88
00:07:30.519 --> 00:07:33.800
Sometimes I do try and bring it back, but you know,

89
00:07:33.839 --> 00:07:41.720
these occasions when I'm not as focused as maybe some

90
00:07:41.839 --> 00:07:46.199
may wish I was. I'm quite happy with the way

91
00:07:46.240 --> 00:07:50.279
I do it it, but I don't always I try

92
00:07:50.319 --> 00:07:53.240
and answer the questions, but sometimes I get a question

93
00:07:53.279 --> 00:07:56.199
it's a little bit like, oh, I have to be

94
00:07:56.319 --> 00:08:00.000
careful because, you know, especially if it involves other people

95
00:08:02.439 --> 00:08:04.240
in my life and I don't. I can't you know,

96
00:08:04.759 --> 00:08:06.600
if they listen to this, I have to be careful.

97
00:08:06.839 --> 00:08:12.079
They don't say anything derogatory, you know, so I have to.

98
00:08:12.319 --> 00:08:15.759
But generally, any question, if I can answer it, I will.

99
00:08:16.319 --> 00:08:19.319
If I can't, I'll still answer it. But it might

100
00:08:19.360 --> 00:08:26.079
be but plus I didn't even finish that sentence. Plus

101
00:08:28.279 --> 00:08:30.839
you can ask me the same question every week for

102
00:08:30.839 --> 00:08:33.240
a whole year, and you'll probably get a different answer

103
00:08:35.480 --> 00:08:37.879
every week, because it depends on what my mood is

104
00:08:38.320 --> 00:08:44.240
depends And also, you know, sometimes I'll answer a question

105
00:08:44.279 --> 00:08:47.840
on Q and a Friday, and I'll be sitting over

106
00:08:47.879 --> 00:08:57.080
there afterwards, thinking, especially when it things like what's your

107
00:08:57.080 --> 00:09:01.080
favorite movie or what's your favorite song, or and I

108
00:09:01.120 --> 00:09:03.960
was thinking, oh, wait a minute, no, my favorite movie

109
00:09:04.039 --> 00:09:11.039
is that this you know, I kind of I forgot

110
00:09:11.039 --> 00:09:17.399
to mention this thing, or you know, it reminds me

111
00:09:17.559 --> 00:09:22.759
blind me to again. This is a true story. Someone

112
00:09:22.840 --> 00:09:33.879
came to me and they had a phobia or not

113
00:09:33.960 --> 00:09:41.399
a phobia, but they just traveling to the airport. Because

114
00:09:41.519 --> 00:09:44.320
this person has gone on holiday, traveling to the airport

115
00:09:45.799 --> 00:09:51.320
was causing like a lot of anxiety and the person

116
00:09:51.360 --> 00:09:53.639
couldn't figure out why. It's like, I don't know why.

117
00:09:54.320 --> 00:09:57.320
It's like he had a phobia. He had a phobia

118
00:09:57.360 --> 00:10:02.840
of traveling to the airport in a car, like get

119
00:10:02.840 --> 00:10:05.799
a taxi, I think, or drove I don't know. And

120
00:10:05.840 --> 00:10:09.799
I was like, okay, you got an issue with a plane. No,

121
00:10:10.120 --> 00:10:13.759
I ain't got an issue with a plane. Is that

122
00:10:13.840 --> 00:10:15.399
you've got an issue with the people you're going with?

123
00:10:17.000 --> 00:10:17.440
Not really?

124
00:10:18.080 --> 00:10:21.440
I mean, I got three kids, but you get used

125
00:10:21.440 --> 00:10:26.480
to them after a while, don't you what. I can't

126
00:10:26.559 --> 00:10:30.240
leave my own these days, got to take them with you, okay.

127
00:10:31.000 --> 00:10:33.440
And it was like, okay, So trying to figure it out,

128
00:10:34.240 --> 00:10:38.639
she came and this might have been a hypnosis. I

129
00:10:38.679 --> 00:10:42.799
don't know if it's a hypnosis or it was counseling.

130
00:10:43.399 --> 00:10:47.960
I can't remember in what what words were coming head

131
00:10:48.000 --> 00:10:54.240
I had on that day. Anyway, after about the third session,

132
00:10:56.759 --> 00:10:59.399
she said, she mentioned that she'd been in a car

133
00:10:59.559 --> 00:11:04.039
crash on the way to the airport, like about five

134
00:11:04.159 --> 00:11:13.000
years ago, quite a serious car crash. Like okay, it's

135
00:11:13.080 --> 00:11:17.159
the dots weren't joining in his mind, I'm saying his

136
00:11:17.360 --> 00:11:19.840
in her because I can't remember if it was a

137
00:11:19.879 --> 00:11:23.919
bloke or woman. I've got no idea, don't care. But

138
00:11:24.039 --> 00:11:31.159
they didn't. They didn't have like it seems so obvious, like, well,

139
00:11:31.240 --> 00:11:35.960
obviously if you've got this issue because something bad happened,

140
00:11:36.039 --> 00:11:40.679
something you know quite you know hard, happened on the

141
00:11:40.720 --> 00:11:44.480
way to an airport, because traveling to the airport wasn't

142
00:11:44.559 --> 00:11:47.120
something that they did regularly. It was like a once

143
00:11:47.159 --> 00:11:49.720
a year thing or twice a year. I don't know.

144
00:11:50.840 --> 00:11:56.279
And unless of course he was an air like it

145
00:11:56.279 --> 00:12:01.399
could have been a pilot, I suppose. No, no, I

146
00:12:01.440 --> 00:12:06.000
don't think he was a pilot. So it's amazing that

147
00:12:06.159 --> 00:12:12.639
sometimes you know, forgetting things, and it's it's all about

148
00:12:12.679 --> 00:12:18.320
forgetting things. I remember on my chairs falling apart. I

149
00:12:18.480 --> 00:12:21.840
keep picking at the Do you know I've got like

150
00:12:21.919 --> 00:12:28.480
a gaming chair? I don't. I'm not a gamer. The

151
00:12:28.600 --> 00:12:31.480
last time I even attempted to play a computer game

152
00:12:33.639 --> 00:12:42.120
two thousand and five, and somebody sold me their game Boy.

153
00:12:42.200 --> 00:12:46.799
I think it was game Boy? Is it game Boy?

154
00:12:46.879 --> 00:12:50.159
What is it? Not the Xbox but the other one?

155
00:12:50.240 --> 00:12:52.440
Is it a game Boy? So he sold me that,

156
00:12:53.879 --> 00:12:57.000
and I was like, I don't know what to do

157
00:12:57.080 --> 00:13:02.840
with this. The chair is not falling apart because I've

158
00:13:02.840 --> 00:13:06.399
had it for twenty years. I just haven't. I keep

159
00:13:06.440 --> 00:13:10.399
picking it. I'm just thinking if that was my fingers

160
00:13:10.399 --> 00:13:12.279
I was picking it, I don't have no fingers left.

161
00:13:14.480 --> 00:13:22.600
So yeah, there's been times when I've forgotten about my

162
00:13:22.759 --> 00:13:32.360
lower back. See, I've very, very skillfully pulled it back

163
00:13:32.720 --> 00:13:37.440
to the reason I'm doing this recording, and I'm very

164
00:13:37.480 --> 00:13:43.879
pleased with myself. Perhaps I shouldn't have mentioned it because

165
00:13:43.919 --> 00:13:49.240
it takes away the potential cleverness of what I did.

166
00:13:50.879 --> 00:13:52.840
But now thinking about it, maybe it wasn't that clever.

167
00:13:53.080 --> 00:13:57.039
Maybe it was just too I kind of get the senses,

168
00:13:57.159 --> 00:14:02.320
like the arrows are basically pulling pointing at the fact

169
00:14:02.360 --> 00:14:05.919
that he's now mentioning forgetting. He's going to start talking

170
00:14:05.960 --> 00:14:08.720
about forgetting about the pain. That's what you're going to

171
00:14:08.759 --> 00:14:18.000
do now, isn't it. Ah? Yeah, but not always. Put

172
00:14:18.039 --> 00:14:20.080
my finger in my ear, just pulled out some earwax.

173
00:14:22.200 --> 00:14:24.519
He said, you wonder like white ear wax is such

174
00:14:24.559 --> 00:14:29.720
a weird color. See. I have to be careful with

175
00:14:29.799 --> 00:14:35.440
my ears. Not because they're so big. I don't get

176
00:14:35.480 --> 00:14:38.679
them get stuck in between buildings because are so big. No,

177
00:14:39.240 --> 00:14:41.480
not because they're that big, or that they are fairly big.

178
00:14:44.240 --> 00:14:48.360
Although it's weird. I had a friend at school and

179
00:14:48.480 --> 00:14:52.320
he had his ears pinned back. He actually had an operation.

180
00:14:54.159 --> 00:14:58.080
His ears didn't even stick out. I didn't. It's just

181
00:14:58.240 --> 00:15:06.639
like it wasn't even to me that noticeable. You know,

182
00:15:06.759 --> 00:15:08.960
it's weird. It's like I thought my ears probably stuck

183
00:15:09.000 --> 00:15:13.320
out just as much as his did. But he, you know,

184
00:15:13.399 --> 00:15:15.080
he had a thing about it, so he got his

185
00:15:15.159 --> 00:15:24.639
ears pinned back. And yeah, I think that's another thing

186
00:15:24.679 --> 00:15:28.919
about distraction, isn't it is? Because I'm trying to keep

187
00:15:29.000 --> 00:15:32.679
coming back to my lower back. But when I was

188
00:15:32.720 --> 00:15:36.840
thinking about my friend's ears, I don't get I don't

189
00:15:37.000 --> 00:15:38.840
spend a lot of time thinking about his ears. By

190
00:15:38.879 --> 00:15:42.279
the way I mean, it's like back when I was

191
00:15:42.360 --> 00:15:44.759
about eleven or twelve, so so it's, you know, a

192
00:15:44.840 --> 00:15:49.840
few years ago. It's over fifteen years ago, so I

193
00:15:49.879 --> 00:15:51.799
don't spend a lot of time thinking of his ears.

194
00:15:52.759 --> 00:15:59.679
But when I was thinking of his ears, I wasn't

195
00:15:59.759 --> 00:16:02.279
focus on my lower back. And you might be thinking

196
00:16:02.559 --> 00:16:05.519
that's because he had such big ears. He didn't, and

197
00:16:05.639 --> 00:16:08.559
it's rude. Don't make fun of my friend who I

198
00:16:08.600 --> 00:16:13.840
haven't seen for forty years. I suppose technically is he

199
00:16:13.919 --> 00:16:17.519
still a friend. I don't know, see the way I

200
00:16:17.639 --> 00:16:20.039
see it, and it's weird, But I got what. I

201
00:16:20.120 --> 00:16:23.759
left school in nineteen eighty six, so it's nearly forty

202
00:16:23.919 --> 00:16:29.440
years ago, is that right? Eighty six, ninety six, two

203
00:16:29.600 --> 00:16:36.120
thousand and six, two thy sixteen, twenty twenty six, so

204
00:16:36.200 --> 00:16:41.480
many years time, so it's thirty nine years. There are

205
00:16:41.559 --> 00:16:45.879
people I went to school with who are still have

206
00:16:46.159 --> 00:16:50.879
high regard for, and I haven't seen them pretty much

207
00:16:50.919 --> 00:16:54.600
since I left school. Like a song called Stephan or

208
00:16:54.679 --> 00:16:58.559
Stephan Stephan. I remember his surname. I remember what he

209
00:16:58.679 --> 00:17:04.160
looked like. He was tall, and he was cool, and

210
00:17:04.240 --> 00:17:08.039
I remember him. I just he was on these people.

211
00:17:08.119 --> 00:17:09.960
He's someone that I kind of want to be like.

212
00:17:10.640 --> 00:17:12.720
I was nothing like him, but I would, you know,

213
00:17:12.799 --> 00:17:16.200
if I could have chosen to be like anyone, probably

214
00:17:16.240 --> 00:17:19.240
in my year, he would have been one of the

215
00:17:19.279 --> 00:17:25.920
people I've chosen to be like, because he was He

216
00:17:26.039 --> 00:17:28.640
was a man, That's the one thing. He was already

217
00:17:28.680 --> 00:17:31.400
a man physically, but he seemed to be a man

218
00:17:31.559 --> 00:17:34.680
mentally as well. It was more clue together, it was

219
00:17:34.759 --> 00:17:42.200
more sensible. He wasn't scared of anything. He just is strong.

220
00:17:42.960 --> 00:17:46.400
But it was also nice, you know, he looked out

221
00:17:46.440 --> 00:17:54.400
for people, and I just, yeah, it's weird. I'm hoping

222
00:17:54.480 --> 00:17:56.799
that the old I'm not going to say his name,

223
00:17:57.599 --> 00:18:03.440
but the I and E E E E E E

224
00:18:04.960 --> 00:18:12.079
doesn't start shouting because of the conversations, the very loud

225
00:18:12.160 --> 00:18:17.200
conversations going on in the garden yesterday. Man, they were

226
00:18:17.240 --> 00:18:20.359
playing music, but I think they're doing it from a phone,

227
00:18:20.480 --> 00:18:24.720
so it's just all distorted from a distance. It's distorted,

228
00:18:24.759 --> 00:18:28.279
isn't if you hear someone's phone music. And I had

229
00:18:28.319 --> 00:18:33.920
it blasting like all day, all all day, right till

230
00:18:33.920 --> 00:18:36.480
about eleven at night. I was like, what the heck?

231
00:18:39.279 --> 00:18:44.480
It was very strange. I hope that's not a sign

232
00:18:44.559 --> 00:18:49.400
of things to come. I can I can imagine I'm

233
00:18:49.400 --> 00:18:53.960
getting going to get a letter. Dear Jason, I quite

234
00:18:54.079 --> 00:18:56.000
like some of you will let me boy just you

235
00:18:56.240 --> 00:18:59.279
let me bore your pain away recordings. But you did

236
00:18:59.319 --> 00:19:03.279
one third day, the seventeenth of April, and it was

237
00:19:03.400 --> 00:19:08.000
more like, let me bore you by moaning about stuff.

238
00:19:09.319 --> 00:19:12.599
Let me moan at you and we you know, just

239
00:19:12.839 --> 00:19:16.839
just moaned all the way through it. How is that useful?

240
00:19:17.799 --> 00:19:19.880
It's useful to me. Lets me get rid of it.

241
00:19:20.960 --> 00:19:26.240
I feel better now, Oh, letting all the negativity out war.

242
00:19:27.920 --> 00:19:31.920
I'm not moaning. I'm just pointing out. You want to

243
00:19:31.920 --> 00:19:35.799
hear a moan, this is a moan, but it's not really.

244
00:19:35.839 --> 00:19:39.240
It's kind of as a funny moan. I can't believe

245
00:19:39.279 --> 00:19:45.000
this happened. I'll tell you in a minute. So when

246
00:19:45.039 --> 00:19:47.400
I was focuing on my on my friends, foking in,

247
00:19:47.720 --> 00:19:52.640
focusing on my friend's ears to be fair, actually, anything

248
00:19:52.680 --> 00:19:57.519
I do when I make these recordings, my lower back relaxes.

249
00:19:58.599 --> 00:20:03.799
There's something about my voice. I'm not saying that in like, oh,

250
00:20:04.640 --> 00:20:09.920
I have such a calm voice. I don't mean like that.

251
00:20:10.119 --> 00:20:16.720
But just there's something about recording or doing these recordings

252
00:20:17.759 --> 00:20:23.839
that has a tendency to relax me. Sometimes I do

253
00:20:24.000 --> 00:20:28.240
feel tired when I make them a yawn. Sometimes my

254
00:20:28.400 --> 00:20:33.680
body feels well. My whole body feels quite relaxed right now.

255
00:20:35.440 --> 00:20:38.519
But my lower back I'm focusing on it because where

256
00:20:38.559 --> 00:20:41.319
the old arthritis is in my lower back, left side,

257
00:20:42.200 --> 00:20:46.160
and you know, I'm kind of stretching it. I can

258
00:20:46.480 --> 00:20:54.240
feel that. It's this I don't know. You know, you

259
00:20:54.319 --> 00:20:59.240
know when you have local anesthetic, so you can still

260
00:20:59.319 --> 00:21:02.720
feel the pressure, but you can't there's no physical discomfort,

261
00:21:03.000 --> 00:21:05.000
but you can feel the pressure. So if a dentist

262
00:21:05.160 --> 00:21:08.839
is doing stuff, or maybe you're having stitches and giving

263
00:21:08.839 --> 00:21:11.759
you local anesthetic in your hand or your foot or whatever.

264
00:21:12.680 --> 00:21:16.000
I had it when I had an ingrind toenail sorted.

265
00:21:16.039 --> 00:21:19.119
Once I had a local anesthetic, and it's weird. You

266
00:21:19.200 --> 00:21:22.680
can feel the pressure, but it's like that's it. It's

267
00:21:22.680 --> 00:21:25.680
a bit like that. I can kind of I'm pressing

268
00:21:26.880 --> 00:21:32.839
on my lower back, not hard, just so I can feel.

269
00:21:34.200 --> 00:21:39.160
I can feel it, but it's just nothing. It just

270
00:21:39.240 --> 00:21:42.599
feels the same as the other side. Really, it's kind

271
00:21:42.599 --> 00:21:49.160
of weird. A what was I going to tell you?

272
00:21:50.880 --> 00:21:56.880
All right, I went out today. So I was in

273
00:21:57.039 --> 00:22:04.240
here and I was just doing some What did I do? Yeah,

274
00:22:04.279 --> 00:22:07.480
I was just finishing up with because I do the

275
00:22:07.559 --> 00:22:11.200
recordings and I upload them and after editing them and

276
00:22:11.200 --> 00:22:14.559
all that stuff, there was a few bits and bobs

277
00:22:14.599 --> 00:22:18.480
I needed to do. One of those things was to

278
00:22:19.079 --> 00:22:23.200
add the images to some of the podcast episodes. So

279
00:22:23.319 --> 00:22:28.440
I did that. So that took a little while. Itchy bumps, Sorry,

280
00:22:29.400 --> 00:22:33.720
Oh that's better. The buttock I should say buttock really,

281
00:22:33.799 --> 00:22:35.720
just in case you think, well, should you go and

282
00:22:35.839 --> 00:22:41.279
wash your ansouldn't you? I've got trousers on, so I

283
00:22:43.000 --> 00:22:48.680
need to cut my fingernails. Actually, So I was just

284
00:22:50.000 --> 00:22:53.640
finishing off some of the I would class it is

285
00:22:55.599 --> 00:22:59.359
administration stuff, you know, some of that stuff that needs

286
00:22:59.440 --> 00:23:04.680
to be done. And I had two pieces of chocolate.

287
00:23:05.079 --> 00:23:08.039
I don't genuinely eat chocolate, but on this occasion I

288
00:23:08.079 --> 00:23:12.279
had a dairy milk caramel Kapy's Dairy Milk caramel bar

289
00:23:13.000 --> 00:23:16.359
with two bits left from last night. But it was warm,

290
00:23:17.759 --> 00:23:23.160
and I thought to myself, it seems a shame to

291
00:23:23.359 --> 00:23:27.160
not eat it right now. It just do you know,

292
00:23:27.240 --> 00:23:33.400
you ever get that that situation. We think it just

293
00:23:33.480 --> 00:23:36.759
seems like the right thing to do. It's just seemed

294
00:23:36.799 --> 00:23:39.319
like if you if you're walking down the street and

295
00:23:39.559 --> 00:23:43.359
you see someone struggling with an elderly person struggling with

296
00:23:43.480 --> 00:23:50.720
some really really heavy, heavy shopping, and then you see

297
00:23:50.839 --> 00:23:56.720
someone like a young woman who's maybe struggling to do

298
00:23:56.799 --> 00:23:58.720
a brolly get out. You know, maybe she used her

299
00:23:58.759 --> 00:24:01.839
hairs getting wet. So you go and help the young person,

300
00:24:02.359 --> 00:24:05.559
the attractive and I'm joking and joking and joking, so

301
00:24:06.799 --> 00:24:08.759
you help the person needs help, and it feels like

302
00:24:08.799 --> 00:24:11.559
the right thing to do. That's how I am with

303
00:24:11.680 --> 00:24:16.799
the chocolate. It's but morally, it felt the right decision

304
00:24:17.079 --> 00:24:22.680
to eat that chocolate. There's only two pieces. I mean,

305
00:24:22.720 --> 00:24:25.240
I lost the stone. Well, I lost the stone in

306
00:24:25.240 --> 00:24:27.119
the heart and said I've lost the stone and I've

307
00:24:27.160 --> 00:24:29.799
not put it back on. I lost the stone in

308
00:24:29.880 --> 00:24:33.039
half and I put half a stone back on. So technically,

309
00:24:33.160 --> 00:24:39.319
I suppose I can't really be dancing around doing somersaults

310
00:24:39.400 --> 00:24:42.079
making out that one are good because I've not put

311
00:24:42.119 --> 00:24:45.960
the weight back on, because technically I've put one third

312
00:24:46.000 --> 00:24:48.839
of it back on. But if you move away from that,

313
00:24:50.279 --> 00:24:53.480
I'm still I'm fifteen, not sixteen stone, so that's good.

314
00:24:56.119 --> 00:24:58.920
What I'll be by Christmas? I might be seventeen stone.

315
00:25:00.920 --> 00:25:04.799
I don't think so well that bit of melt thing. Honestly,

316
00:25:04.839 --> 00:25:10.720
I've got this bracket on this desk. It reminds me. Okay,

317
00:25:11.640 --> 00:25:16.720
you ever see it's a wonderful life. And they've got

318
00:25:16.839 --> 00:25:19.720
he's got that banister, like the thing that he holds

319
00:25:19.759 --> 00:25:21.759
onto the banister right at the top of the bottom

320
00:25:21.799 --> 00:25:24.240
of the stairs and it just comes off, and he's like,

321
00:25:24.440 --> 00:25:29.359
oh damn banister. And then when he comes back off

322
00:25:29.440 --> 00:25:32.599
the pier and all his family there and all his

323
00:25:32.799 --> 00:25:37.240
friends come to save him financially, and the old old

324
00:25:37.359 --> 00:25:41.960
man zone Zion or whatever it is is playing, and

325
00:25:42.599 --> 00:25:45.240
you know, he goes upstairs to see his daughter because

326
00:25:45.240 --> 00:25:48.759
he's Juju, because he had a petal. It's didn't he

327
00:25:48.839 --> 00:25:51.960
in a in his pocket. Juju's pedal, Ju's pedal, and

328
00:25:53.519 --> 00:25:55.960
and he puts his hand on the banister and it

329
00:25:56.039 --> 00:26:01.319
comes off, like oh oh, and he's happy, where like

330
00:26:01.440 --> 00:26:04.559
an hour earlier he was like annoyed. He's like, oh girl,

331
00:26:05.720 --> 00:26:17.200
And I was like, oh, it was a bit like that.

332
00:26:22.960 --> 00:26:26.200
I lost my training fought there. What was I talking about.

333
00:26:28.200 --> 00:26:30.920
I was talking about eating chocolate and I ended up

334
00:26:32.759 --> 00:26:37.920
focusing on a banister on Oh, this metal thing, it's

335
00:26:38.039 --> 00:26:41.680
like that. That's it, this metal thing on my desk.

336
00:26:42.440 --> 00:26:46.119
And it's not like a banister, because that would be

337
00:26:46.200 --> 00:26:49.440
weird because it's nothing like that. But it's something that's

338
00:26:49.519 --> 00:26:52.200
just annoying me, and I just like, I wish I

339
00:26:52.240 --> 00:26:56.480
could do something about it, but that would involve effort,

340
00:26:56.759 --> 00:27:00.920
and it's just there. I just need this screwdriver. But

341
00:27:01.440 --> 00:27:04.920
I lent my screwdriver to my neighbor, and my neighbor

342
00:27:05.039 --> 00:27:10.680
never re basically gave it back. I don't want to

343
00:27:10.720 --> 00:27:16.720
read it was going to be repeated, reported, reprieved returned.

344
00:27:16.880 --> 00:27:21.160
That's it. Never returned it. Oh, I've got an email.

345
00:27:22.039 --> 00:27:29.319
Three reasons to rejoin Disney Exclusive original blockbusters and bingeworthy series.

346
00:27:30.400 --> 00:27:35.039
New releases added every week, personalized recommendations based on what

347
00:27:35.160 --> 00:27:38.000
you love to watch. Oh, and there's another one. We

348
00:27:38.160 --> 00:27:44.279
need your money. Recently things have been so good. Disney's

349
00:27:44.319 --> 00:27:48.880
had a few problems. We need your money please. Plus

350
00:27:49.000 --> 00:27:51.359
we we kind of did everything we could to ruin

351
00:27:51.480 --> 00:27:58.599
the Marvel franchise. I still stick with Marvel, even though

352
00:27:58.799 --> 00:28:02.000
Disney really have gone out of their way to destroy it.

353
00:28:02.400 --> 00:28:06.599
I don't know why, because that was I mean, they

354
00:28:06.839 --> 00:28:13.319
have the rights, they own Star Wars and the Marvel

355
00:28:13.680 --> 00:28:18.039
all the Marvel movies and stuff, and I don't know,

356
00:28:18.400 --> 00:28:22.079
not quite sure why they've kind of done what they've done.

357
00:28:22.160 --> 00:28:28.039
And they really need some pr They need someone to

358
00:28:29.599 --> 00:28:31.599
have a word with some of their stars as well,

359
00:28:31.839 --> 00:28:36.440
just to be quiet when they're promoting a movie. It's

360
00:28:36.519 --> 00:28:39.640
really I reckon that snow White. If it had got

361
00:28:39.680 --> 00:28:43.359
good ratings, regardless if it was good or not, it

362
00:28:43.480 --> 00:28:45.160
might be a really good movie. I don't know, I've

363
00:28:45.200 --> 00:28:50.920
not watched it, but if it had good ratings, it

364
00:28:50.960 --> 00:28:53.640
would have been probably the biggest hit of the year,

365
00:28:54.720 --> 00:28:58.680
even if it wasn't particularly good, just because it's a

366
00:28:58.759 --> 00:29:02.160
Disney movie. It's a remaker one of the most famous

367
00:29:02.240 --> 00:29:06.680
Disney movies of all time, and it's got some famous

368
00:29:06.759 --> 00:29:10.079
people in it, and you know, it's got wonder woman.

369
00:29:10.200 --> 00:29:15.640
She's in it, isn't she. It just shows you how

370
00:29:15.960 --> 00:29:23.039
easily because of social networking, social media, the Internet and

371
00:29:23.039 --> 00:29:26.640
all that stuff, it's like they go to town in

372
00:29:26.759 --> 00:29:31.319
a much a stronger way than the national press ever

373
00:29:31.519 --> 00:29:35.200
used to. It used to be like a slow burning

374
00:29:35.319 --> 00:29:38.640
thing with the newspapers, you know, they try and do

375
00:29:38.839 --> 00:29:41.400
something and if everyone else followed then it would be good.

376
00:29:41.799 --> 00:29:46.240
Sometimes it wouldn't work. And they did one recently about

377
00:29:47.640 --> 00:29:53.240
it was Stephen Frye. So Stephen fry made a controversial

378
00:29:53.359 --> 00:30:07.200
comment Stephen Frye contraversy contra this is recently and oh

379
00:30:07.240 --> 00:30:15.319
he's got another one now. The thing is, I don't

380
00:30:15.359 --> 00:30:17.519
know if it was it was accused of making racist

381
00:30:17.559 --> 00:30:19.839
and sexist jokes or I don't know what it was.

382
00:30:22.079 --> 00:30:24.559
Oh yeah, I know what it was. He made had

383
00:30:24.599 --> 00:30:30.519
been criticized for controversial comments regarding some yeah, quite serious stuff.

384
00:30:32.519 --> 00:30:37.400
They posted it whoever it was online, no one showed

385
00:30:37.640 --> 00:30:45.079
the slightest bit of interest because he would have been well,

386
00:30:45.079 --> 00:30:49.680
he wasn't canceled, and it seems like he's above being canceled.

387
00:30:50.880 --> 00:30:55.079
Some people just ah above that. Russell Brand seems to

388
00:30:55.119 --> 00:30:59.640
be above that. John Tate what was his name, Tate?

389
00:31:00.000 --> 00:31:05.119
Wherever that name is the bloke Tate, what's his first name?

390
00:31:06.039 --> 00:31:08.559
Tate used to be Tit and Lyon. If you put

391
00:31:08.640 --> 00:31:11.599
Tate in Jenny used to be like Tate and Lyle sugar,

392
00:31:14.000 --> 00:31:16.559
that's weird. I put in Tate into Google enough, it's

393
00:31:16.599 --> 00:31:20.240
coming up other than okay, if I just check Tate

394
00:31:20.359 --> 00:31:25.559
Modern Hotels, Andrew is it Andrew? I bet if I

395
00:31:25.640 --> 00:31:28.000
just put Andrew, it'll probably come up in the distance.

396
00:31:28.160 --> 00:31:34.519
And that's a very slurpy word. Then andrews Andrew Andrew

397
00:31:34.880 --> 00:31:39.960
Yeah a n the first word Andrew Tate's the first

398
00:31:40.000 --> 00:31:41.880
person that comes up as soon as I put a in,

399
00:31:43.880 --> 00:31:48.559
So Andrew Tate is. It's quite funny because the what

400
00:31:48.759 --> 00:31:54.440
Ricky Gervais said that Andrew Tate is what a fourteen

401
00:31:54.519 --> 00:31:57.000
year old boy thinks a man is supposed to be like.

402
00:31:58.799 --> 00:32:04.319
And I thought it's quite funny because he's not really

403
00:32:04.640 --> 00:32:08.440
representative of the male population. I would say it's kind

404
00:32:08.480 --> 00:32:13.039
of a fantasy, kind of I don't know, it's weird.

405
00:32:14.119 --> 00:32:21.000
I mean it's see in England we saw Andrew Tate

406
00:32:22.079 --> 00:32:27.000
years ago, long before he was famous worldwide, long long

407
00:32:27.400 --> 00:32:32.680
long before, because he was in Big Brother, and I

408
00:32:32.799 --> 00:32:37.359
don't know if he was. He wasn't even in what

409
00:32:37.640 --> 00:32:42.359
year was that? What year was he in Big Brother?

410
00:32:46.400 --> 00:32:48.799
He don't off cut? What does he say about? Okay?

411
00:32:49.079 --> 00:32:51.200
So look I want to see some of the rubbish

412
00:32:51.240 --> 00:32:54.200
he comes out with. See I quite like people that

413
00:32:54.279 --> 00:32:58.319
come out of crap because it's funny, but it doesn't

414
00:32:58.599 --> 00:33:06.839
you know, people just say stuff like it's it's almost

415
00:33:06.960 --> 00:33:14.039
like they it's created, kind of like a Frankenstein's monster

416
00:33:14.279 --> 00:33:19.799
or AI. They sort of said, okay, create the perfect

417
00:33:20.119 --> 00:33:24.759
version of a misogynist, like the perfect version that has

418
00:33:24.960 --> 00:33:30.160
every single misogynistic attribute. And he seemed to have come

419
00:33:30.200 --> 00:33:32.759
out the other end. I think I've got no issue

420
00:33:32.799 --> 00:33:35.960
with him. I don't know him, but there's a lot

421
00:33:36.039 --> 00:33:39.240
of that stuff online at the moment. I watch a

422
00:33:39.279 --> 00:33:44.000
lot of the YouTube channels, and I do. I see

423
00:33:44.079 --> 00:33:46.160
some of the YouTube channels and there's quite a few

424
00:33:46.319 --> 00:33:51.119
really popular YouTube channels that are so anti the opposite.

425
00:33:51.240 --> 00:33:55.160
Sex is ridiculous. I don't understand it. I think women

426
00:33:55.160 --> 00:33:59.799
are lovely, not all of them, but not all men

427
00:33:59.839 --> 00:34:03.759
are either. Not all anyone thinks lovely, but everyone's got

428
00:34:03.880 --> 00:34:10.840
something good about them. Big Brother twenty sixteen, so it

429
00:34:11.079 --> 00:34:16.360
wasn't celebrity Big Brother ever. No one knew who he was.

430
00:34:17.320 --> 00:34:20.280
He was just some he had hair back then, he

431
00:34:20.440 --> 00:34:23.360
was a bloke and they kept talking about him being

432
00:34:23.400 --> 00:34:32.360
a kickboxer champion, and he was. He was controversial, argumentative,

433
00:34:33.400 --> 00:34:36.840
but he was unknown, and he had a weird accent,

434
00:34:37.119 --> 00:34:43.960
a mixture between English and American. He came under scrutiny

435
00:34:44.079 --> 00:34:47.760
for previously having made homophobic and racist posts on Twitter.

436
00:34:48.920 --> 00:34:53.360
He was removed from the show after six days, saying

437
00:34:54.079 --> 00:34:57.440
which produces saying it was because of events outside the house.

438
00:35:02.199 --> 00:35:08.079
Oh okay, well that didn't come up when I talked

439
00:35:08.079 --> 00:35:10.119
about that. When I was trying to look at people

440
00:35:10.559 --> 00:35:12.440
for people that had been kicked off a big brother,

441
00:35:16.159 --> 00:35:21.360
how I think I wanted to talk about Taiti Peti,

442
00:35:22.000 --> 00:35:33.679
but Taiti so as distractions. I mean, in some ways,

443
00:35:33.719 --> 00:35:35.840
you know, I'd rather have an apritis than be him,

444
00:35:36.679 --> 00:35:41.880
you know. So, yeah, it's weird. I don't understand. I

445
00:35:42.039 --> 00:35:46.599
do sometimes wonder how do people get to be so

446
00:35:46.880 --> 00:35:53.679
angry take themselves so seriously? And that is something that

447
00:35:53.880 --> 00:36:00.280
can really get in a way of relaxing, seeing that

448
00:36:00.440 --> 00:36:06.599
over the years a lot where some people just take

449
00:36:06.639 --> 00:36:10.960
themselves a little bit too seriously. It's not that they

450
00:36:11.000 --> 00:36:14.360
should see themselves as a joke, of course not, but

451
00:36:18.559 --> 00:36:23.440
or sometimes like really earnest people. Let's look if I've

452
00:36:23.440 --> 00:36:29.079
got the right the word right, earnest. The word earnest

453
00:36:29.239 --> 00:36:32.800
is defined as being characterized by or proceeding from an

454
00:36:32.840 --> 00:36:36.639
intense and serious state of mind. Yeah, serious, I do

455
00:36:36.760 --> 00:36:41.199
get it right. It implies seriousness and determination, often indicating

456
00:36:41.239 --> 00:36:45.440
that someone is sincere and committed to their intentions or actions.

457
00:36:46.400 --> 00:36:48.760
And there's nothing wrong with sincerity, BlimE me. So it's

458
00:36:48.760 --> 00:36:56.599
an amazing trait. And being earnest, you know, if you're

459
00:36:56.760 --> 00:37:02.559
climbing a mountain, or you're searching for someone's missing, or

460
00:37:02.880 --> 00:37:05.239
you know, you're trying to say someone's life or yeah,

461
00:37:05.360 --> 00:37:13.079
being earnest is it's an amazing characteristic. But in just

462
00:37:13.599 --> 00:37:20.559
everyday life it might not be always useful, especially with

463
00:37:20.840 --> 00:37:26.039
physical issues. And I've noticed that I've known a lot

464
00:37:26.119 --> 00:37:29.320
of people over the years that have just been very

465
00:37:29.599 --> 00:37:34.639
very I don't use the word earnest, but serious, very

466
00:37:35.119 --> 00:37:39.960
taking themselves serious, maybe taking other people serious, taking their

467
00:37:40.000 --> 00:37:50.559
own views really seriously. And I understand, you know, it's

468
00:37:50.920 --> 00:37:55.840
probably quite hard for some people to realize that their

469
00:37:56.000 --> 00:38:00.760
views are only really important to them and maybe people

470
00:38:00.880 --> 00:38:04.079
that have the same views, but there are millions, if

471
00:38:04.199 --> 00:38:08.159
not billions, of people around the world don't feel the

472
00:38:08.199 --> 00:38:14.119
same way. So it doesn't mean that they're right, doesn't

473
00:38:14.199 --> 00:38:17.320
mean that you're right. Or I'm right, We're just right

474
00:38:17.400 --> 00:38:21.400
for us, it's our opinion and it's how we choose

475
00:38:21.519 --> 00:38:24.800
to think and live our life. But then when you

476
00:38:24.880 --> 00:38:27.000
break it down, how much it is is it free

477
00:38:27.119 --> 00:38:30.960
choice of thinking for being indoctrinated into it, being born

478
00:38:31.000 --> 00:38:35.400
into it? Because you know the amount of things that

479
00:38:35.480 --> 00:38:41.519
I've probably indoctrinated from living in this country. I mean

480
00:38:41.760 --> 00:38:48.000
when I was a kid, I grew up. Eventually I

481
00:38:48.119 --> 00:38:57.079
grew up, and there was a certain mindset, very dismissive

482
00:38:57.199 --> 00:39:03.039
mindset to anyone that was out of the norm. People

483
00:39:03.119 --> 00:39:08.639
with disabilities were generally you wouldn't see them, maybe people

484
00:39:08.679 --> 00:39:12.800
in wheelchairs, but outside of that, they'd be locked up.

485
00:39:15.239 --> 00:39:17.679
You know, there was the care in the community kind

486
00:39:17.719 --> 00:39:20.679
of came in in the nineties where people were allowed

487
00:39:20.719 --> 00:39:29.920
to live outside of hospitals. There was a real misunderstood

488
00:39:30.280 --> 00:39:34.079
just not it wasn't misunderstanding, it wasn't even attempted understanding

489
00:39:34.519 --> 00:39:42.039
of differences. So any kind of difference was mocked. And yeah,

490
00:39:42.159 --> 00:39:45.960
a lot of time it was funny in a way

491
00:39:47.960 --> 00:39:51.159
if you're not the one being mocked, but if you

492
00:39:51.239 --> 00:39:54.000
are the one being mocked, it's probably not quite as humorous.

493
00:39:55.159 --> 00:39:58.639
And I had been the one being mocked, and I

494
00:39:58.719 --> 00:40:04.800
didn't enjoy it, and I learned from that until the

495
00:40:04.840 --> 00:40:08.199
next time I decided to mock someone. No, I don't.

496
00:40:08.719 --> 00:40:14.960
Generally I like to go the other way so well

497
00:40:15.119 --> 00:40:21.159
used to. If I see someone mocking somebody, I join

498
00:40:21.320 --> 00:40:25.440
forces with the other person that's being mocked and turn

499
00:40:25.519 --> 00:40:29.480
it on them and either coach them on what to say,

500
00:40:30.480 --> 00:40:33.159
or just join in and sort of say and basically

501
00:40:33.320 --> 00:40:39.800
be there, be their voice temporarily, because I've known people

502
00:40:39.840 --> 00:40:42.760
that won't say anything back. They just sit there or

503
00:40:42.880 --> 00:40:47.280
stand there and let it happen. And I can't. I

504
00:40:47.360 --> 00:40:52.440
can't allow that because I'm earnest. I'm very serious about

505
00:40:52.519 --> 00:41:00.480
things like that, serious and determined. So sincere admitted to

506
00:41:00.599 --> 00:41:04.280
my intentions or actions, I'm just trying to learn what

507
00:41:04.400 --> 00:41:13.880
the word ernest means. What's that famous book Earnest Something Earnest?

508
00:41:16.039 --> 00:41:21.000
So that is something I've noticed. Is So you thought

509
00:41:21.000 --> 00:41:23.679
I was going to talk about forgetting things. No, No, nope,

510
00:41:24.480 --> 00:41:29.239
mind you. There has been times when I've just forgotten

511
00:41:30.199 --> 00:41:35.480
about my back. I mean, there was one time when

512
00:41:35.480 --> 00:41:38.079
I fractured my back in two places. The week I

513
00:41:38.159 --> 00:41:46.920
got Vinny, I had a well it wasn't a walking stick,

514
00:41:46.960 --> 00:41:52.800
but it was very sturdy umberella with like a a handle,

515
00:41:52.840 --> 00:41:55.559
and I used it as a walking stick just to

516
00:41:55.639 --> 00:41:58.199
help me get through because I was oh man, that

517
00:41:58.400 --> 00:42:06.480
was oh that was a very interesting time. And then

518
00:42:06.519 --> 00:42:09.000
one day I went out without it and I forgot

519
00:42:09.119 --> 00:42:14.199
that I needed it, and I realized that I was

520
00:42:14.400 --> 00:42:19.320
really making a meal of it. I was almost over

521
00:42:19.440 --> 00:42:24.920
exaggerating my limping, and I didn't realize I was doing

522
00:42:25.000 --> 00:42:30.000
that until I forgot to take the brollie out. I mean,

523
00:42:30.039 --> 00:42:32.559
I wasn't walking normally. I still had a limp, and

524
00:42:32.679 --> 00:42:39.239
I was being careful. But it almost like made brought

525
00:42:39.320 --> 00:42:46.559
me down to earth to realize that if I was

526
00:42:46.599 --> 00:42:51.559
able to forget that I needed some kind of support,

527
00:42:52.719 --> 00:42:58.039
then I possibly didn't need the support. And then I

528
00:42:58.119 --> 00:43:02.280
fell over, so I did need it. I haven't full

529
00:43:02.360 --> 00:43:07.840
novos since. BlimE me. That was weird. My friend said,

530
00:43:07.880 --> 00:43:12.519
you know, like we had snow that week, so last

531
00:43:12.599 --> 00:43:15.559
time we had settled snow. So this is over two

532
00:43:15.679 --> 00:43:21.079
years ago, two years and four months. That's the last

533
00:43:21.119 --> 00:43:23.960
time we had in where I live, I mean, had

534
00:43:24.000 --> 00:43:28.760
any kind of settled, proper settled snow where it settled

535
00:43:28.800 --> 00:43:30.159
you know, what I mean, like it's there for a

536
00:43:30.239 --> 00:43:34.760
few days and that it all melted on that day.

537
00:43:34.800 --> 00:43:38.280
I think it was a Wednesday or Thursday, all melted.

538
00:43:40.719 --> 00:43:43.760
It didn't stay settled for a long time, maybe a

539
00:43:43.840 --> 00:43:48.079
few days, maybe five days. I don't know. I lose track.

540
00:43:51.480 --> 00:43:54.079
And all I'm doing is just my friend knocked on. No,

541
00:43:54.199 --> 00:43:56.960
he shouted up. It's a bit late at night to

542
00:43:57.000 --> 00:44:00.679
be doing that, but he showered up to bring Vinnie

543
00:44:00.719 --> 00:44:03.559
down or go in the garden. Logi and Vinnie and

544
00:44:04.480 --> 00:44:06.880
and I've only had Vinnie literally for a week. That

545
00:44:07.000 --> 00:44:09.000
was the first week of having him, so there's a

546
00:44:09.039 --> 00:44:12.719
lot of excitement about having him here. And Logi loved

547
00:44:12.760 --> 00:44:17.199
him Vinnie. Vinnie loved Luke, he loved Logi, he loved

548
00:44:17.280 --> 00:44:20.760
going in out of that flat. You know, this was

549
00:44:20.920 --> 00:44:23.519
all new for him. He was having time of his life.

550
00:44:25.159 --> 00:44:27.840
I guess he's you know, I think he'd have preferred

551
00:44:27.880 --> 00:44:29.840
to be downstairs and to be up here with me.

552
00:44:31.119 --> 00:44:35.880
But I think he's he's given up on the dream.

553
00:44:36.360 --> 00:44:39.880
He's just he's settled. I think that's the most I

554
00:44:39.920 --> 00:44:41.719
could ever really hope for anyone with me. It's just

555
00:44:41.800 --> 00:44:45.119
to settle, just to That's what I was hoping in

556
00:44:45.239 --> 00:44:48.559
life for like relationships. I don't need anyone to fall

557
00:44:48.599 --> 00:44:50.159
in love with me. I just want someone just to

558
00:44:50.559 --> 00:44:55.480
just to settle, just to to give up looking for

559
00:44:55.559 --> 00:44:59.400
something better. That's all I want. It's not much to ask.

560
00:45:01.840 --> 00:45:08.559
Oh that's terrible. Some water. I got a little delivery earlier,

561
00:45:10.440 --> 00:45:13.320
some food to get me through till next week, because

562
00:45:13.960 --> 00:45:20.079
tomorrow is good Friday, then it's well, it's basically Easter weekends,

563
00:45:20.199 --> 00:45:23.719
so I think everything kind of goes back to normal Saturday.

564
00:45:24.039 --> 00:45:28.599
Then it's Easter Day Sunday, Easter Monday or good sort

565
00:45:28.599 --> 00:45:32.000
of like a bank holiday Monday, and then things go

566
00:45:32.199 --> 00:45:36.960
back to normal Tuesday. So I'm going to be other

567
00:45:37.039 --> 00:45:39.320
than doing what well I should be doing what I

568
00:45:39.400 --> 00:45:47.679
normally do. Really yeah, making recordings and watching some Telly.

569
00:45:48.039 --> 00:45:52.000
I hope to watch them Telly over the weekend. I

570
00:45:52.199 --> 00:45:59.440
just started watching the movie, but I thought was getting on.

571
00:45:59.599 --> 00:46:04.519
It's like, I mean, now it's quarter three and I

572
00:46:04.639 --> 00:46:08.360
almost feel like I haven't done anything today. It's kind

573
00:46:08.360 --> 00:46:11.239
of weird, so I thought I might as well just

574
00:46:11.360 --> 00:46:21.920
get on and make a recording. But that's seriousness. I

575
00:46:22.039 --> 00:46:27.639
have mentioned this before. I'm not one hundred percent sure

576
00:46:28.079 --> 00:46:38.920
how to really kind of move Well, I've been there.

577
00:46:39.639 --> 00:46:45.599
Sometimes I'm there. Sometimes I'm super serious, But generally I

578
00:46:45.760 --> 00:46:52.280
think having I'm not going to say a sense of humor,

579
00:46:52.320 --> 00:46:54.440
because serious people can have a sense of humor as well.

580
00:46:54.760 --> 00:46:56.800
I think everybody's got a sense of humor. It's just

581
00:46:56.920 --> 00:47:01.320
different for each person. But to be a bit more lighter,

582
00:47:03.199 --> 00:47:08.639
to be a bit well, what does it take for

583
00:47:08.719 --> 00:47:12.239
you to feel less serious? I mean the fact that

584
00:47:12.440 --> 00:47:14.599
some people have got a lot of serious stuff going on.

585
00:47:16.239 --> 00:47:21.119
So it's I would never really say to someone generally

586
00:47:21.519 --> 00:47:26.320
unless I learn them very well to just try not

587
00:47:26.400 --> 00:47:33.199
to take themselves too seriously. But then you can take

588
00:47:33.360 --> 00:47:39.440
other things seriously without taking yourself seriously, can't you? Is

589
00:47:39.599 --> 00:47:44.280
is that possible? Is it possible to take a break

590
00:47:44.360 --> 00:47:50.079
from all that stuff and just remembering we get what

591
00:47:50.199 --> 00:47:56.199
we think about, so whatever we focus on has an

592
00:47:56.239 --> 00:48:00.519
effect on how we feel. I mean, this is just

593
00:48:00.679 --> 00:48:05.320
scientific fact. It's not an opinion. I was angry. That

594
00:48:05.400 --> 00:48:10.639
sound quite aggressive. It's not an opinion, it's fact. I'm

595
00:48:10.719 --> 00:48:13.679
taking myself I being very earnest. That's going to be

596
00:48:13.760 --> 00:48:15.639
the word this, That's what it's going to be called.

597
00:48:15.800 --> 00:48:19.280
Earnest that's what I'm going to call this recording earnest.

598
00:48:22.800 --> 00:48:25.079
I'm never going to use the word ernest again after this.

599
00:48:26.000 --> 00:48:31.519
It's not one of the words I use. I don't

600
00:48:31.559 --> 00:48:33.719
know why. I just said, like a very old fashioned

601
00:48:35.320 --> 00:48:38.559
what is that? What is that book? Something Earnest? It's

602
00:48:38.559 --> 00:48:41.920
a very very famous book. I'm going to look it up,

603
00:48:42.840 --> 00:48:53.760
book The Importance of Being Earnest O Scar Wild. I've

604
00:48:53.800 --> 00:49:01.119
never read it. I never read it Ernest. Okay, let's

605
00:49:01.199 --> 00:49:12.199
have a look. I'm just gonna have a look for something.

606
00:49:13.320 --> 00:49:21.280
H h. This is gonna be weird. I'm gonna ask

607
00:49:26.239 --> 00:49:33.119
a right here we go and ask chat ept, do

608
00:49:33.320 --> 00:49:55.239
you do you have any techniques force to stop being earnest? Okay,

609
00:49:55.440 --> 00:49:56.960
here we go. Let's see what it comes up with.

610
00:49:59.239 --> 00:50:01.519
Do you have any here knows his techniques for stopping

611
00:50:01.639 --> 00:50:09.280
being earnest? So, although I mean recently I've been making

612
00:50:09.400 --> 00:50:16.199
recordings and I've kind of focused on some relief techniques

613
00:50:16.320 --> 00:50:19.559
and stuff, this is a little bit different. But it's

614
00:50:19.760 --> 00:50:23.400
a kind of a distractions. I didn't tell you, did

615
00:50:23.440 --> 00:50:28.960
I about the chocolate. Oh, I'll tell you in a minute.

616
00:50:29.239 --> 00:50:34.360
It's honestly, I'm embarrassed by it. I'm actually embarrassed, and

617
00:50:34.480 --> 00:50:42.679
I can't believe no one told me so this is. Oh,

618
00:50:42.800 --> 00:50:48.800
it's given me a whole I just want Oh no, okay, no,

619
00:50:48.880 --> 00:50:51.280
it's given me lots of like a whole thing. I

620
00:50:51.280 --> 00:50:54.199
don't want a whole thing. Just if I say stop,

621
00:50:57.239 --> 00:51:07.679
just ten different techniques, techniques, right, I don't want a

622
00:51:07.760 --> 00:51:16.440
whole hypnosis script, just ten different techniques. Just interested because

623
00:51:19.119 --> 00:51:22.000
I know some things. I know some things. I'm so clever.

624
00:51:23.440 --> 00:51:28.880
There are ways of It's about dislodging, it's about moving

625
00:51:28.920 --> 00:51:32.599
away from a fixed mind. I'm not reading this off

626
00:51:32.639 --> 00:51:34.199
the screen, by the way, I'm still waiting for it

627
00:51:34.280 --> 00:51:45.880
to load up and moving away from that fixedness. I

628
00:51:45.960 --> 00:51:50.480
suppose in a way, it's like stretching exercises for your mind,

629
00:51:51.920 --> 00:51:54.880
stretching your mind so you have a bit more flexibility.

630
00:51:56.400 --> 00:51:59.800
So it is what's coming up with this, the playful observer.

631
00:52:00.239 --> 00:52:06.159
Imagine yourself stepping outside your body, observing yourself interacting earnestly

632
00:52:06.280 --> 00:52:12.000
with others, but also seeing the humor in these moments.

633
00:52:12.559 --> 00:52:18.199
Notice a playful absurdity in being overly serious. Okay, so

634
00:52:18.360 --> 00:52:21.880
imagine like it was a good example I've seen that

635
00:52:23.079 --> 00:52:29.280
I've seen it when and sometimes it can be. So

636
00:52:29.440 --> 00:52:38.639
I've seen people if if it's just like an average joke,

637
00:52:39.159 --> 00:52:45.320
sometimes people won't laugh because it goes against their you knows,

638
00:52:45.400 --> 00:52:49.519
it's a subject matter that they don't like, which is understandable.

639
00:52:52.320 --> 00:52:58.559
But if something when something makes someone laugh, it's uncontrollable,

640
00:53:00.239 --> 00:53:04.519
but real laughter. Something might be humorous, like yeah, it's funny,

641
00:53:05.199 --> 00:53:09.119
but something that makes you just really laugh, you know, proper,

642
00:53:09.400 --> 00:53:14.400
proper laugh, that's uncontrollable. That's out of our control. We

643
00:53:14.639 --> 00:53:18.679
know what uncontrollable is okay, fair enough blind me. It's

644
00:53:18.760 --> 00:53:26.159
so serious it's it's out of our control. So it

645
00:53:26.280 --> 00:53:29.519
doesn't mean so if if someone told me a joke

646
00:53:29.559 --> 00:53:33.360
about the Pope that made me laugh, doesn't mean that

647
00:53:33.480 --> 00:53:36.840
I'm against the Pope or I find anything funny about

648
00:53:36.920 --> 00:53:40.480
the Pope water skiing or whatever the joke would be.

649
00:53:40.639 --> 00:53:44.800
You know, it's just that it made me laugh, and

650
00:53:44.960 --> 00:53:51.559
it wasn't. It caught me off guard. And that's something

651
00:53:51.599 --> 00:53:55.320
I think some people struggle with, Like you can't laugh

652
00:53:55.360 --> 00:54:00.280
at that, can't laugh at this? Well, and I'll should

653
00:54:00.320 --> 00:54:04.480
handler he said, you know, with stuff that's serious now

654
00:54:04.599 --> 00:54:07.079
and you're like, one day we'll laugh about this. Why wait,

655
00:54:09.320 --> 00:54:13.119
why I laugh about it now? And I'm not talking

656
00:54:13.159 --> 00:54:19.000
about super serious, horrible things, but I remember there. I

657
00:54:19.119 --> 00:54:22.920
had a neighbor who had an ambulance called and if

658
00:54:23.000 --> 00:54:27.199
they hurt this this person heard the ambulance drivers or

659
00:54:27.239 --> 00:54:33.559
the paramedics joking, and I had to explain to him

660
00:54:33.639 --> 00:54:41.039
that it's it's a natural thing to do. They're not

661
00:54:41.239 --> 00:54:46.599
laughing at you, they're not laughing at your situation. Basically,

662
00:54:47.039 --> 00:54:49.639
it's a thing called gallows humor. And he had not

663
00:54:49.719 --> 00:54:52.079
heard that because he's young, very very young, hadn't heard

664
00:54:52.079 --> 00:54:55.280
of the term. So I had to explains it's basically,

665
00:54:55.360 --> 00:55:00.639
they're doing such a difficult job at times that the

666
00:55:00.960 --> 00:55:03.960
only way to really cope with it is by laughing

667
00:55:04.000 --> 00:55:07.079
at what's going on. They're not really laughing at what's

668
00:55:07.119 --> 00:55:11.639
going on. They're not they find something's funny, but you know,

669
00:55:11.840 --> 00:55:15.639
it's a way of coping. And it's just similar with

670
00:55:15.880 --> 00:55:21.679
I'm sure with the police, with doctors, with nurses, with

671
00:55:22.280 --> 00:55:26.119
even in counseling. It was sort of you know, even

672
00:55:26.159 --> 00:55:30.719
in the call center, but laugh at someone make fun

673
00:55:30.800 --> 00:55:34.679
of a customer or make fun of a team leader.

674
00:55:34.719 --> 00:55:38.519
That was a bit over the top, you know, moaning

675
00:55:38.559 --> 00:55:43.480
and stuff. Just it was a way of letting that

676
00:55:44.599 --> 00:55:52.559
tension out, a way of release, you know. So it's

677
00:55:52.639 --> 00:55:56.960
not necessarily that you find it funny like that you

678
00:55:57.079 --> 00:56:02.320
find their situation funny or you're really mocking them. It's

679
00:56:02.360 --> 00:56:07.400
just that it's a way to let out, a way

680
00:56:07.519 --> 00:56:13.440
to release. Oh, brilliant, you've now explained humor to us. Thanks. No,

681
00:56:13.639 --> 00:56:16.960
I'm not trying to explain humor to here. I'm saying

682
00:56:17.079 --> 00:56:23.800
that this is what I told this person, that sometimes

683
00:56:24.840 --> 00:56:30.480
people will laugh, but they're not really laughing at you. Now,

684
00:56:32.840 --> 00:56:37.079
I still have to convince myself that if someone's if

685
00:56:37.119 --> 00:56:40.079
I'm walking down the street in my shorts and every

686
00:56:40.119 --> 00:56:42.960
single person points at my legs and laughs, they're not

687
00:56:43.159 --> 00:56:46.719
laughing at me. They're laughing with me. Okay, there's the

688
00:56:46.800 --> 00:56:52.559
bloom release. Picture your earnest thoughts and serious feelings as

689
00:56:52.719 --> 00:56:56.639
helium ballooms, generally letting them go one by one, watching

690
00:56:56.679 --> 00:57:00.639
them float peacefully away, feeling lighter and freer as each

691
00:57:00.719 --> 00:57:05.400
balloon disappears into the sky. That's just another version of

692
00:57:05.519 --> 00:57:12.639
the helium release or the stress release. Another version of

693
00:57:12.719 --> 00:57:17.119
that is you can imagine getting all the all the

694
00:57:17.199 --> 00:57:22.719
things you're concerned about putting them into a wheelbarrow, pushing

695
00:57:22.760 --> 00:57:26.679
a wheelbarrower towards a hot air balloon, you know, wines

696
00:57:26.719 --> 00:57:32.800
with the baskets, and then just the basket's got a

697
00:57:32.880 --> 00:57:36.800
couple of pieces of wood like a ramp. Push the

698
00:57:37.480 --> 00:57:41.440
wheelbarrow in, empty it in there, pull up the side

699
00:57:41.480 --> 00:57:45.159
of the basket and then just cut the cut the

700
00:57:45.320 --> 00:57:48.440
cord or the rope that's keeping the hot air baoom

701
00:57:50.480 --> 00:57:56.519
on the ground. And watch all that crap, all that stress,

702
00:57:57.239 --> 00:58:04.599
all that negativity, discomfort, just slowly rise slowly, and just

703
00:58:04.760 --> 00:58:09.880
notice how good it feels. I used to have that

704
00:58:10.039 --> 00:58:12.679
feeling when I would whenever I got into a ferry

705
00:58:13.159 --> 00:58:17.840
and I would leave this country. I always felt a

706
00:58:18.000 --> 00:58:23.719
relief as I moved away from the shore, you know,

707
00:58:23.800 --> 00:58:29.280
whether it's going to Belgium, whether it was France, Ireland.

708
00:58:29.719 --> 00:58:32.880
That's the only three different places I've been to on

709
00:58:32.960 --> 00:58:40.119
a ferry, France, Belgium, and Ireland. Yeah, I think that's it.

710
00:58:42.199 --> 00:58:46.440
Oh Isle of Man as well, so four. I always

711
00:58:46.480 --> 00:58:49.920
had that same feeling. Although I wasn't able to watch

712
00:58:50.559 --> 00:58:52.599
with the Isle of Man one the winds were too strong.

713
00:58:52.639 --> 00:58:57.639
We weren't even allowed outside. But all the other fairies.

714
00:58:57.679 --> 00:59:01.320
It was lovely. Just it was like in a negative

715
00:59:01.360 --> 00:59:04.599
way like all England who It wasn't like that, It

716
00:59:04.719 --> 00:59:10.599
was just ah. It was that separation. It was that

717
00:59:12.440 --> 00:59:22.800
that break, that physical separation of being away from well,

718
00:59:22.840 --> 00:59:26.639
basically I was leaving everything there. I was leaving any worries,

719
00:59:26.760 --> 00:59:32.519
any concerns, my past. Everything was there and I was

720
00:59:32.639 --> 00:59:35.840
moving away from it. It was nice, felt nice. It

721
00:59:35.880 --> 00:59:47.679
feels nice even imagining it, to be honest, Yeah, I

722
00:59:47.719 --> 00:59:50.960
can feel like that. Sometimes you can leave stuff like

723
00:59:51.079 --> 00:59:54.159
in the hot air blown. You can leave the physical discomfort.

724
00:59:54.599 --> 00:59:57.119
You can leave that on the shore as well as

725
00:59:57.159 --> 01:00:00.760
you move away on the boat. You can leave that

726
01:00:00.760 --> 01:00:08.280
at home whenever you go out. There's so many little

727
01:00:08.360 --> 01:00:14.079
things you can do that. I know it's imagination, but

728
01:00:14.280 --> 01:00:22.559
sometimes you know, if you carried around a little pad

729
01:00:22.679 --> 01:00:31.760
with you, piece of paper. I'm not talking about big pad,

730
01:00:31.960 --> 01:00:35.559
just a little pad, just a little just you know,

731
01:00:36.199 --> 01:00:42.239
it doesn't have to be anything big and but you

732
01:00:42.280 --> 01:00:44.320
could do this at home as well. But whenever you

733
01:00:44.400 --> 01:00:50.400
get a feeling, whenever you get a feeling you don't enjoy,

734
01:00:50.480 --> 01:00:53.440
whether it's a thought that you're not enjoying, whether it's

735
01:00:53.480 --> 01:00:59.679
a physical feeling that just feels quite horrible. You could

736
01:00:59.719 --> 01:01:03.920
write how you feel down, rip it off, the pad,

737
01:01:04.079 --> 01:01:07.440
off the pad whatever, screw it up and just put

738
01:01:07.440 --> 01:01:12.119
it in the bin, or if you live around here,

739
01:01:12.239 --> 01:01:15.280
just check it out a window for the for the

740
01:01:15.360 --> 01:01:19.960
cleanest to pick up in a month's time by doing

741
01:01:20.000 --> 01:01:25.039
their nappies. Oh dear, honestly, there's there's a there's a

742
01:01:25.079 --> 01:01:29.400
flat downstairs. There's eggshells all outside the kitchen window on

743
01:01:29.519 --> 01:01:38.280
the floor outside. How what they were chucking nappies out

744
01:01:38.280 --> 01:01:42.159
of the front. It's on camera, They've got the other

745
01:01:42.360 --> 01:01:48.280
people obviously got on camera. But how how what part

746
01:01:48.320 --> 01:01:53.559
of the brain needs to be turned off to be

747
01:01:53.719 --> 01:01:59.000
cooking and then just chucking food checking empty eggshells out

748
01:01:59.000 --> 01:02:01.119
of the kitchen window. What part of the brain has

749
01:02:01.159 --> 01:02:03.239
to be switched off to do that, or to check

750
01:02:03.519 --> 01:02:11.239
a dirty nappy out of the living room window. I mean,

751
01:02:11.280 --> 01:02:16.679
maybe we can switch parts of the brain off, maybe

752
01:02:16.719 --> 01:02:19.960
the part for that bit of your body that you

753
01:02:20.079 --> 01:02:25.920
want to feel relaxed. Maybe switch that part of the body,

754
01:02:26.159 --> 01:02:30.119
that part of the brain off, just that one small part.

755
01:02:30.840 --> 01:02:33.320
And I guess there's I mean, if you think about

756
01:02:33.360 --> 01:02:37.920
it like a traffic light system, so you've got that

757
01:02:38.639 --> 01:02:41.880
part of your body is green as yellow and it's red,

758
01:02:45.960 --> 01:02:51.159
so red kind of means it can Each color can

759
01:02:51.239 --> 01:02:54.800
mean what you want them to mean, so you can

760
01:02:54.880 --> 01:02:56.800
just change the color. Maybe the one in the middle

761
01:02:56.960 --> 01:03:07.400
is a you know, hm. One color is maybe unpleasant feeling,

762
01:03:10.119 --> 01:03:15.119
and then the other color would be feeling relaxed. I

763
01:03:15.159 --> 01:03:17.719
mean I want to go, like you know, stop, go

764
01:03:18.960 --> 01:03:31.559
and prepare to go. Although in this country, there that

765
01:03:31.639 --> 01:03:34.199
there's something that happens at turning a part of your brain.

766
01:03:34.880 --> 01:03:38.199
When people get a driving license in this country, they

767
01:03:39.000 --> 01:03:42.280
get a part of the botomy. And what happens is

768
01:03:43.039 --> 01:03:46.159
they get a part of their brain removed the I

769
01:03:46.199 --> 01:03:51.480
don't know, the sensible part. The only really it activates

770
01:03:51.599 --> 01:03:54.320
when they're in the car. The rest of the time

771
01:03:54.360 --> 01:04:00.519
they're fine, but something happens. So they learn that red

772
01:04:00.960 --> 01:04:07.760
is stop, green is go. Yellow depends on where you are.

773
01:04:08.119 --> 01:04:11.119
So if you're stopped at the traffic lights, yellow means

774
01:04:12.440 --> 01:04:15.920
prepare to go, and when it goes to green. So

775
01:04:15.960 --> 01:04:20.559
if you're on red yellow, prepared to go ready, and

776
01:04:20.639 --> 01:04:22.880
when it goes to green, you can go. And if

777
01:04:22.920 --> 01:04:25.440
you're pulling up to traffic lights and it's on green,

778
01:04:25.880 --> 01:04:30.679
then it turns to yellow, prepare to stop, and it

779
01:04:30.760 --> 01:04:33.559
goes to red. Now you might drive up and not

780
01:04:33.719 --> 01:04:35.719
know what it is. It might just be on a yellow,

781
01:04:35.800 --> 01:04:39.159
so you don't know if it's about to stop or

782
01:04:39.159 --> 01:04:41.719
if it's about to go, so you slow down. You

783
01:04:42.480 --> 01:04:47.639
become very aware of it. Preparing. That's kind of what

784
01:04:47.719 --> 01:04:51.639
it's supposed to be, says the man that's never actually

785
01:04:51.679 --> 01:04:55.119
driven a car. I did add three driving lessons, so there.

786
01:04:56.519 --> 01:05:02.039
But what it turned into is in this country, the

787
01:05:02.119 --> 01:05:05.159
part of the brain gets switched off when you get

788
01:05:05.159 --> 01:05:15.599
your driving license. Is you when you're driving up towards

789
01:05:15.599 --> 01:05:19.880
the traffic lights and it's on yellow. What that means

790
01:05:20.079 --> 01:05:25.079
to the person in their brain is speed up. Whether

791
01:05:25.199 --> 01:05:27.079
it's going to green or whether it's going to red.

792
01:05:27.159 --> 01:05:32.239
They don't know. If it's on yellow, speed up. That's

793
01:05:32.320 --> 01:05:34.840
what it means if you're knowing any of the traffic lights.

794
01:05:34.880 --> 01:05:38.920
But if you see that, if you're sitting at the

795
01:05:38.960 --> 01:05:41.599
traffic lights and you've stopped because it's been on red,

796
01:05:45.079 --> 01:05:50.119
the yellow instead of meaning prepare for green when you

797
01:05:50.239 --> 01:05:57.280
can start driving again, yellow means go to the driver's brain.

798
01:05:58.360 --> 01:06:01.400
So it goes from red to yellow. It means I

799
01:06:01.480 --> 01:06:02.920
can just go, and that's not what it means. It

800
01:06:03.000 --> 01:06:06.159
means prepared to go. You don't go yet until it

801
01:06:06.199 --> 01:06:11.679
goes to green. So something happens to drivers brains and

802
01:06:11.800 --> 01:06:14.760
it's weird. I just don't know what it is. It's

803
01:06:18.159 --> 01:06:22.760
I guess, it's just I don't know. I really I

804
01:06:22.840 --> 01:06:26.199
don't who knows, I don't know. There's a die down

805
01:06:26.920 --> 01:06:33.960
dial down technique. Visualize a controlled dial clearly marked earnestness.

806
01:06:34.960 --> 01:06:38.920
It was high, slowly and deliberately turned the dial down,

807
01:06:39.760 --> 01:06:43.239
feeling more playful, relaxed, and less serious of each reduction.

808
01:06:45.000 --> 01:06:48.159
So I've done the die down technique in the past

809
01:06:49.159 --> 01:06:56.119
quite probably quite a few times. But imagine if you

810
01:06:56.480 --> 01:07:02.079
just did do that with your level of seriousness, if

811
01:07:04.119 --> 01:07:10.800
you know, if that's the case, being able to relax

812
01:07:10.960 --> 01:07:13.559
because you know, I this is something I've said for

813
01:07:13.719 --> 01:07:17.639
years and years and years. When you're listening to me,

814
01:07:18.800 --> 01:07:21.039
they say, if you're lying down or you're sitting down,

815
01:07:21.519 --> 01:07:26.159
you're giving yourself half an hour, an hour or whatever

816
01:07:26.280 --> 01:07:30.320
time it is to just take some time out and

817
01:07:30.480 --> 01:07:35.960
not care about anything. Don't take anything I say seriously

818
01:07:36.000 --> 01:07:39.239
because I'm just talking a load of rubbish. Most of

819
01:07:39.280 --> 01:07:45.039
the time. This is just time out from life and

820
01:07:50.880 --> 01:08:00.760
nothing matters right now. And I try to put this

821
01:08:01.000 --> 01:08:04.280
idea forward, and I know it's it's a weird, a

822
01:08:04.360 --> 01:08:12.119
weird concept sometimes because I don't know if it might

823
01:08:12.199 --> 01:08:16.319
come across as me saying, you know, nothing in your

824
01:08:16.399 --> 01:08:19.000
life matters. And I'm not saying that that's a very

825
01:08:19.079 --> 01:08:23.560
ridiculous thing to say. I'm saying that, for the period

826
01:08:23.640 --> 01:08:28.319
of time that you're listening to my super exciting voice,

827
01:08:31.680 --> 01:08:37.279
take a break from that stuff that literally, don't care

828
01:08:37.520 --> 01:08:48.279
about anything. Nothing, whether it's illness, other people's illness, I'm

829
01:08:48.359 --> 01:08:53.880
talking anything, let everything go. If you're able to get

830
01:08:53.920 --> 01:08:57.800
into that zone of not caring but not in a way.

831
01:08:57.840 --> 01:09:01.399
Of course, she's still care, but you're taking a break

832
01:09:01.479 --> 01:09:06.640
from it. You're having a rest from it. And we

833
01:09:06.800 --> 01:09:13.119
all need to put stuff down sometimes. I mean talking

834
01:09:13.199 --> 01:09:17.840
from my own perspective. A few times over the years,

835
01:09:19.439 --> 01:09:24.720
I ended up carrying too much stuff like baggage, stress, tension.

836
01:09:25.640 --> 01:09:28.920
It made me ill to the point where I couldn't

837
01:09:28.960 --> 01:09:33.319
function and I lost my job. It happened three times

838
01:09:33.640 --> 01:09:36.640
four It happened three times officially, but it happened in

839
01:09:36.720 --> 01:09:39.039
the past when I was younger, I just didn't really

840
01:09:39.159 --> 01:09:42.800
know what was going on. I kind of a little

841
01:09:42.800 --> 01:09:47.039
bit more clued up about what's happening now, and I

842
01:09:47.119 --> 01:09:51.319
had to drop everything. And it was a case of

843
01:09:51.439 --> 01:09:57.760
like I was not so much juggling, but carrying such

844
01:09:57.840 --> 01:10:02.840
a heavy weight of different things, to the point where

845
01:10:06.520 --> 01:10:09.199
if I just had to let them go, But if

846
01:10:09.239 --> 01:10:13.399
i'd have taken a break. This lady the other day

847
01:10:15.359 --> 01:10:20.520
that reminds me. I can't remember the toffee, the toffee thing,

848
01:10:20.840 --> 01:10:26.600
but that chocolate. I embarrassed myself so badly. But anyway,

849
01:10:26.640 --> 01:10:28.399
this woman, I saw her again. I think today it

850
01:10:28.520 --> 01:10:32.000
was yesterday, but a couple of days ago, me and

851
01:10:32.159 --> 01:10:36.359
Vinnie were in the park. We see this lady with

852
01:10:36.520 --> 01:10:40.039
these two big, massive bags. They were bigger than she was,

853
01:10:40.119 --> 01:10:46.000
both of them, and the bags weren't on wheels, but

854
01:10:46.119 --> 01:10:48.720
she was no, I don't know. She was struggling with

855
01:10:48.800 --> 01:10:54.439
the bags. She put them down, and I think she

856
01:10:54.560 --> 01:10:57.039
was looking at her hands, see you see like it's

857
01:10:57.079 --> 01:11:03.079
obviously she was struggling with the bags. So after I

858
01:11:03.159 --> 01:11:09.359
stopped laughing, I went over to help her, and you know,

859
01:11:09.560 --> 01:11:11.079
Vinnie had to pick me off the floor because I

860
01:11:11.119 --> 01:11:14.199
found it so funny. I didn't. I didn't laugh blind me,

861
01:11:15.159 --> 01:11:18.680
so I went over. This is kind of a bit silly.

862
01:11:18.720 --> 01:11:20.439
I went over to help her, but I always like

863
01:11:20.479 --> 01:11:25.039
the other side of the park, and I was shouting, well,

864
01:11:25.319 --> 01:11:28.239
calling out aloud, not shouting, shouting because I do. I

865
01:11:28.279 --> 01:11:30.319
do have a very loud voice on a shout, so

866
01:11:30.399 --> 01:11:37.680
I don't shout, but like, excuse me, excuse me, bag lady.

867
01:11:38.439 --> 01:11:40.720
I realized that probably wasn't a good thing to shout out,

868
01:11:41.159 --> 01:11:47.399
lady with the bags, excuse me, wiggy. No, I didn't

869
01:11:47.399 --> 01:11:49.680
show that, but just like I was trying to get

870
01:11:49.720 --> 01:11:54.359
her attention, but she wasn't hearing me, and I'm like,

871
01:11:56.640 --> 01:11:58.520
it seemed like the closer I got to her, the

872
01:11:58.640 --> 01:12:01.680
further she got away. One of those visual weird things

873
01:12:01.760 --> 01:12:05.279
you know that you see on strange movies and cartoons,

874
01:12:05.319 --> 01:12:08.640
and that I couldn't catch up to her by walking.

875
01:12:10.119 --> 01:12:16.439
But I didn't want to run because I've heard comments

876
01:12:16.439 --> 01:12:19.760
about what I look like when I run. Another dog

877
01:12:19.840 --> 01:12:24.159
walker told me I've seen you run, and I thought, wow,

878
01:12:25.000 --> 01:12:27.680
you kept that hidden in your pocket. I was making

879
01:12:27.720 --> 01:12:29.640
fun of her, and she said, oh, I've seen you run,

880
01:12:30.439 --> 01:12:34.000
and like so she was holding onto that one for

881
01:12:34.279 --> 01:12:38.880
a rainy day got me right back. I guess I

882
01:12:40.239 --> 01:12:45.359
run a little bit like I probably run the way

883
01:12:45.399 --> 01:12:48.119
I looked like I run. So if you was to

884
01:12:48.159 --> 01:12:54.359
see me, you just looked at me. That's how I run. Yes,

885
01:12:54.479 --> 01:12:58.520
it's not necessarily a good thing, so I'm walking really fast.

886
01:12:58.720 --> 01:13:05.359
Eventually she puts the bags down and I say, excuse me, hello.

887
01:13:05.720 --> 01:13:08.319
I didn't want to tap her on the shoulder. I

888
01:13:08.359 --> 01:13:09.960
didn't well, I didn't want to touch I don't want

889
01:13:09.960 --> 01:13:13.079
to touch anyone, but I don't want to startle or anything.

890
01:13:13.439 --> 01:13:16.159
But I couldn't get in front of her because the

891
01:13:16.279 --> 01:13:19.640
two bags were there blocking the whole thing, and there

892
01:13:19.720 --> 01:13:21.199
was a car to the side of us. I couldn't

893
01:13:21.199 --> 01:13:26.199
get around, and luckily she turned around. I said hello.

894
01:13:26.399 --> 01:13:30.720
She said what I said? Are you're okay? He said,

895
01:13:30.760 --> 01:13:33.239
what's got to do with you? I said, I wonder

896
01:13:33.239 --> 01:13:35.039
if you need a So you look like you're struggling

897
01:13:35.079 --> 01:13:37.960
with the bags. She said, looks like you're struggling with

898
01:13:38.039 --> 01:13:41.840
your belly. Like, Wow, this isn't going how I thought

899
01:13:41.880 --> 01:13:45.199
it would go. I said, do you want me to

900
01:13:45.239 --> 01:13:48.800
give you a hand? She said, give me a hand?

901
01:13:49.039 --> 01:13:50.840
What do you mean? I said, you want me to

902
01:13:51.039 --> 01:13:53.600
carry the bags for you. She said, doesn't look like

903
01:13:53.600 --> 01:13:55.560
you'd be able to carry anything. I don't think even

904
01:13:55.560 --> 01:13:57.000
if I empty the bags, you'd be able to carry

905
01:13:57.000 --> 01:14:02.399
the empty bags. You're so weak. Okay, none of this happened,

906
01:14:02.479 --> 01:14:08.520
but that is what Vinnie is telling people. He lies

907
01:14:08.760 --> 01:14:12.680
all the time. He's things happen because we have such

908
01:14:12.720 --> 01:14:16.720
a boring life. He has to make stuff up. So

909
01:14:16.840 --> 01:14:19.439
he's when he when he meets up with Archie. I

910
01:14:19.560 --> 01:14:22.960
heard him the other day like he sees Archie. This

911
01:14:23.159 --> 01:14:25.199
is Archie's mom that was making fun of me walking

912
01:14:25.439 --> 01:14:30.720
running and stuff. And they were just he was off,

913
01:14:30.840 --> 01:14:32.960
he was on the lead, but I was talking to

914
01:14:33.039 --> 01:14:35.800
his mum and they were just like taking turns urinating

915
01:14:35.800 --> 01:14:38.760
on each other, which is weird. They literally do do that.

916
01:14:39.880 --> 01:14:46.720
And I heard Archie. Archie said stuff like, so what's

917
01:14:46.760 --> 01:14:52.000
he been up to this week? I thought, what, what's

918
01:14:52.319 --> 01:14:55.319
who's been up to? And then he and then he

919
01:14:55.399 --> 01:15:00.760
said to him he had some chocolate. H you wouldn't

920
01:15:00.760 --> 01:15:03.920
believe what happened. He just had two bits of chocolate.

921
01:15:05.279 --> 01:15:09.239
It was melted chocolate. And I thought, hey, Finn, he stopped,

922
01:15:09.520 --> 01:15:14.720
stop talking about me. Why are you telling him? He said,

923
01:15:14.760 --> 01:15:16.720
because you need to tell the story. You've been talking

924
01:15:16.720 --> 01:15:19.159
about it. You keep mentioning it, but you haven't actually

925
01:15:19.199 --> 01:15:21.640
told that story about the chocolate yet and how you

926
01:15:21.720 --> 01:15:25.359
got embarrassed. You know, you can't keep putting it off.

927
01:15:26.439 --> 01:15:30.239
You've been talking for about three hours now, and besides,

928
01:15:30.600 --> 01:15:33.439
this is supposed to be you know, let me boil

929
01:15:33.479 --> 01:15:37.840
your pain away. You've just been talking about absolute rubbish

930
01:15:38.640 --> 01:15:42.399
for the last seven hours. So it's gone up from

931
01:15:42.880 --> 01:15:48.479
three hours to seven hours. Yeah, including this conversation, it's

932
01:15:48.479 --> 01:15:55.279
probably about nine hours. I said, look this to kind

933
01:15:55.279 --> 01:15:57.199
of speak, can you? I said, yes, I can speak

934
01:15:57.840 --> 01:16:01.560
sometimes I have a bit of a stutter. He laughed,

935
01:16:01.600 --> 01:16:06.479
at which I think is rude. And I said, look,

936
01:16:06.640 --> 01:16:10.279
the fact is, I said to him, look, there's more

937
01:16:10.800 --> 01:16:14.079
did you do consider than maybe even though it just

938
01:16:14.199 --> 01:16:19.560
seems like I'm talking about random things that possibly some

939
01:16:19.800 --> 01:16:24.760
of this might be useful at the very least as

940
01:16:24.800 --> 01:16:31.439
a distraction technique and maybe relaxation and stuff like that.

941
01:16:34.439 --> 01:16:40.840
He said, no, why not? Why? I said, Look, you've

942
01:16:40.880 --> 01:16:44.920
lived here for two years and what four or five months,

943
01:16:45.039 --> 01:16:48.520
nearly nearly two years, over two years and four months

944
01:16:50.279 --> 01:16:57.720
and for eight so two and a third years. Why

945
01:16:57.800 --> 01:17:00.239
did you say no to that question? You don't think

946
01:17:00.279 --> 01:17:02.800
that maybe I know that, maybe you know that I

947
01:17:02.880 --> 01:17:06.319
know what I'm doing? He said no. I said, why not?

948
01:17:07.000 --> 01:17:12.840
He said, because my dog. That's fair enough, he said,

949
01:17:12.880 --> 01:17:18.039
while you're having a conversation with a dog. I had

950
01:17:18.079 --> 01:17:26.279
no answer for him. H Movie screen reframe it's another thing.

951
01:17:26.840 --> 01:17:31.720
Imagine you're watching yourself behaving earnestly on a cinema screen.

952
01:17:32.239 --> 01:17:36.720
Then playfully change the film. Replay serious scenes with humorous,

953
01:17:38.159 --> 01:17:43.640
playful interactions, shifting your emotional response to laughter or gentle amusement.

954
01:17:46.399 --> 01:17:49.640
I think sometimes just remembering something that happened that was funny.

955
01:17:51.520 --> 01:17:56.359
Is you know something you see on TV, or something

956
01:17:56.399 --> 01:17:58.199
you see it in a movie, or something you heard

957
01:17:58.279 --> 01:18:05.199
someone say, and just remembering it, it can just be funny.

958
01:18:05.239 --> 01:18:08.800
It changes because when you laugh or if you find

959
01:18:08.920 --> 01:18:14.800
something humorous, it changes how you feel. It changes for

960
01:18:14.880 --> 01:18:21.960
all of us, you know. So, there's a mirror smile technique.

961
01:18:22.079 --> 01:18:25.840
Imagine yourself standing in front of a mirror looking overly

962
01:18:26.079 --> 01:18:30.119
earnest then gradually see your reflection breaking into a warm,

963
01:18:30.640 --> 01:18:35.079
spontaneous smile. Feel the ease and enjoy this springs as

964
01:18:35.279 --> 01:18:42.119
seriousness dissolves naturally. It sounds a horror movie. So you

965
01:18:42.239 --> 01:18:45.479
look at in the mirror and your reflection starts laughing

966
01:18:45.520 --> 01:18:50.720
at you. Wow, Okay, I mean that that's a bit freaky.

967
01:18:51.520 --> 01:18:54.960
I mean it might be really good, but that would

968
01:18:56.199 --> 01:19:00.279
I'll definitely be wondering what was been put in my drink.

969
01:19:02.520 --> 01:19:07.920
I shouldn't be making fun of the techniques, but yeah,

970
01:19:09.239 --> 01:19:15.039
I think sometimes there's a technique of it's an old

971
01:19:15.119 --> 01:19:20.319
It's not my technique, it's an old technique where if

972
01:19:20.399 --> 01:19:26.960
you if there was an incident that you struggled thinking

973
01:19:26.960 --> 01:19:31.560
about because it's just like an interaction, a verbal interaction

974
01:19:31.680 --> 01:19:37.800
at work, or something that's just just left an unpleasant feeling,

975
01:19:38.960 --> 01:19:43.000
you can kind of have that memory. But then you know,

976
01:19:43.119 --> 01:19:45.239
say it's your boss telling you off or having a

977
01:19:45.319 --> 01:19:52.520
go at you, or you can imagine behind them like

978
01:19:52.680 --> 01:20:00.520
a mermaid dancing behind them, or like all the other managers,

979
01:20:01.359 --> 01:20:04.800
just like doing a little strip tease behind your manager

980
01:20:05.119 --> 01:20:08.560
when he's being so serious and or you're like just

981
01:20:08.920 --> 01:20:11.880
something silly like that. I mean, you can you can

982
01:20:11.960 --> 01:20:14.479
be extreme with it as well, make it even funnier,

983
01:20:15.199 --> 01:20:19.079
don't make yeah, something that makes you laugh, But or

984
01:20:19.199 --> 01:20:29.239
you can just imagine that maybe they've just but you know,

985
01:20:29.600 --> 01:20:34.039
partially naked that in a way that they didn't realize.

986
01:20:34.159 --> 01:20:41.159
Maybe there's it was undone and you know, it could

987
01:20:41.159 --> 01:20:47.119
be anything, just if it makes you laugh. Or imagine

988
01:20:47.159 --> 01:20:54.279
them with maybe every time they talk, a piece of

989
01:20:54.399 --> 01:21:00.399
carrot falls on the floor, piece of broccoli, bits of food,

990
01:21:00.920 --> 01:21:03.560
so there's like this big pile of food on the

991
01:21:03.680 --> 01:21:06.279
floor in front of them as it falls out of

992
01:21:06.279 --> 01:21:11.479
their mouth whenever they talk, or maybe every time they

993
01:21:11.600 --> 01:21:16.520
talk they just shrink, so the more they moan, the

994
01:21:16.640 --> 01:21:21.319
smaller they get and their voice starts to get squeaky,

995
01:21:22.199 --> 01:21:26.359
you know, just little things like that. Imagine a friendly,

996
01:21:26.479 --> 01:21:30.319
humorous version of yourself, a comedian or playful inner guide

997
01:21:30.800 --> 01:21:36.319
who whispers humorous comments into your mind during earnest moments,

998
01:21:36.600 --> 01:21:42.000
making it impossible to remain overly serious. I've had this

999
01:21:42.199 --> 01:21:50.600
in the past at the really wrong times, and well,

1000
01:21:50.720 --> 01:21:56.399
I just I've just been thinking about the wrong thing,

1001
01:21:58.600 --> 01:22:07.079
and it's it's weird. It's kind of say, definitely changes

1002
01:22:07.119 --> 01:22:12.560
how you feel if you start like just it's kind

1003
01:22:12.600 --> 01:22:17.199
of just whispering to yourself, like even if it's if

1004
01:22:17.239 --> 01:22:19.680
someone's saying something to you and it's all just good

1005
01:22:20.000 --> 01:22:26.079
blah blah blah blah blah blah. And or you imagine

1006
01:22:26.199 --> 01:22:28.840
like just like, I'll bet you need a big poo,

1007
01:22:28.920 --> 01:22:33.640
don't you. Or you can imagine what they're thinking while

1008
01:22:33.680 --> 01:22:37.079
they're talking. You know, it's like if it's an interaction.

1009
01:22:37.199 --> 01:22:40.279
I mean, but you can imagine they're thinking to themselves

1010
01:22:41.800 --> 01:22:47.680
or or you know, whatever it could be. I wish

1011
01:22:47.760 --> 01:22:54.359
I hadn't had that last cup of coffee and they're

1012
01:22:54.399 --> 01:22:58.279
needing to go to a toilet. Or maybe they've just

1013
01:22:58.479 --> 01:23:01.560
realized that they've left the big damp patch on their

1014
01:23:01.640 --> 01:23:06.920
trousers and I'm hoping that no one notices it, but

1015
01:23:07.119 --> 01:23:12.359
you notice it. So Yeah, there's a soap bubble technique.

1016
01:23:12.359 --> 01:23:15.279
What's this? I mean, it's going to have something to

1017
01:23:15.359 --> 01:23:22.760
do with bobbing popping bubbles. Visualize your earnest thoughts in

1018
01:23:22.920 --> 01:23:27.399
case with soapy bubbles. Gently pop each bubble, experiencing the

1019
01:23:27.479 --> 01:23:32.520
release of seriousness as each pops, replaced by calmness, ease,

1020
01:23:32.840 --> 01:23:38.439
and gentle amusement. Ah. I mean, I'm not quite sure

1021
01:23:38.479 --> 01:23:40.560
what soap is, but I have to look that one up.

1022
01:23:41.600 --> 01:23:46.840
A feather touch technique picture a feather, a feather a feather,

1023
01:23:47.600 --> 01:23:51.680
gently brushing away seriousness from your forehead, shoulders, and chest,

1024
01:23:52.439 --> 01:23:56.840
softly sweeping earnestness away, leaving you feeling light, freeer and

1025
01:23:57.039 --> 01:24:02.479
gently amused. I mean, when I call that woman. The

1026
01:24:02.600 --> 01:24:05.359
lady caught up with her and just said, look, I'm

1027
01:24:05.399 --> 01:24:08.960
not trying to, you know, I'm just going to. I

1028
01:24:09.039 --> 01:24:11.720
saw you as struggling with your bags. Can I help

1029
01:24:11.760 --> 01:24:14.479
you pick them and carry them? And she said, okay,

1030
01:24:14.560 --> 01:24:16.600
thank you. I said, you're going to have to take

1031
01:24:16.680 --> 01:24:21.880
vinido because I can't. I can't do both. And she said,

1032
01:24:21.920 --> 01:24:25.039
I forget it then, and she didn't see she took him.

1033
01:24:25.039 --> 01:24:26.960
I said, can you keep it on a Can you

1034
01:24:27.039 --> 01:24:28.600
keep them on a short lead? Though, because there's got

1035
01:24:28.640 --> 01:24:31.960
a habit trying to run in the road. She said,

1036
01:24:32.000 --> 01:24:34.640
this is getting more this is this more problematic than

1037
01:24:34.720 --> 01:24:37.439
carrying the bags? And how many more rules are there?

1038
01:24:38.319 --> 01:24:42.159
I said, no more rules, that's it. So we cheerfully

1039
01:24:42.239 --> 01:24:43.800
walked back to where she lives. She lives at the

1040
01:24:43.880 --> 01:24:45.920
end of the road. I didn't know where she lived,

1041
01:24:45.960 --> 01:24:52.840
but I was thankful it wasn't too far and that

1042
01:24:53.000 --> 01:24:56.880
was it, really, And I thought, what if only I

1043
01:24:57.000 --> 01:25:02.359
had done what she did? Is she carried the bags.

1044
01:25:03.239 --> 01:25:05.920
I think she carried too much. She had too much

1045
01:25:06.000 --> 01:25:10.479
to carry, and I don't think that was particularly good.

1046
01:25:11.039 --> 01:25:15.520
She's fairly elderly, I don't know, age wise, maybe in

1047
01:25:15.600 --> 01:25:18.920
her seventies, elderly, I don't know if that's the right

1048
01:25:19.000 --> 01:25:23.760
word anymore. But she's probably possibly carrying too much because

1049
01:25:23.800 --> 01:25:29.640
they were heavy. They were heavy bags, but she was

1050
01:25:29.720 --> 01:25:33.640
putting them down, having arrest, then carrying them, then putting

1051
01:25:33.680 --> 01:25:42.319
them down. I think someone that takes themselves seriously perhaps

1052
01:25:42.840 --> 01:25:46.159
has a tendency of carrying those bags and keep adding

1053
01:25:46.279 --> 01:25:52.800
more and won't put them down, refusing to put them

1054
01:25:52.840 --> 01:25:59.119
down until they have no choice. So that happened to

1055
01:25:59.199 --> 01:26:02.600
me a few times, where instead of just putting the

1056
01:26:02.680 --> 01:26:06.600
bags down, having a break and taking a rest from

1057
01:26:06.720 --> 01:26:11.199
caring about anything, which again I said, it's a weird

1058
01:26:11.319 --> 01:26:17.359
concept to not care for a period of time, not

1059
01:26:17.520 --> 01:26:22.600
care about anyone, not care about anything, including yourself, including

1060
01:26:22.640 --> 01:26:26.760
your loved ones, including the day, including your job, including

1061
01:26:27.199 --> 01:26:31.279
where you live, including your health, anything, letting go of

1062
01:26:31.479 --> 01:26:37.359
all that stuff just through a period of time. And

1063
01:26:37.479 --> 01:26:43.760
when you do that, there's some freedom there and things

1064
01:26:43.920 --> 01:26:49.279
like you physically, you just feel relaxed, there's nowhere else,

1065
01:26:49.439 --> 01:26:53.239
there's no other way to feel because it's free, it's freeing.

1066
01:26:58.039 --> 01:27:00.680
But then the benefit of when you go back, you know,

1067
01:27:00.800 --> 01:27:03.199
when you like, I say, go back, but when the

1068
01:27:03.319 --> 01:27:07.359
recordings finished, or the session's finished, whether it's listening to

1069
01:27:07.479 --> 01:27:09.560
me or whether it's it could be doing yoga, it

1070
01:27:09.600 --> 01:27:12.000
could be doing meditation, it could be just going for

1071
01:27:12.079 --> 01:27:16.880
a nice walk, anything where you can just move everything

1072
01:27:16.920 --> 01:27:20.880
else away and ignore that, take a break from that stuff,

1073
01:27:21.079 --> 01:27:25.680
just don't care about it for a while, and let

1074
01:27:25.760 --> 01:27:28.520
go of any guilt that you might have about not

1075
01:27:28.680 --> 01:27:30.800
caring about it. You've also got to not care about

1076
01:27:30.840 --> 01:27:37.039
the guilt because ultimately you don't really you're not really

1077
01:27:37.199 --> 01:27:40.359
not caring. Of course you still care, but you're letting

1078
01:27:40.399 --> 01:27:45.319
it go. You're having a break from it. You know,

1079
01:27:45.439 --> 01:27:47.199
it's the same way as you don't eat when you're

1080
01:27:47.239 --> 01:27:51.199
on a toilet. The two don't really go together. Well though,

1081
01:27:51.279 --> 01:27:54.119
the process is kind of the beginning and ending of

1082
01:27:54.159 --> 01:28:00.479
the process, but you know, it's two separate things. So

1083
01:28:00.720 --> 01:28:02.520
may say, how does everything seems to come back to

1084
01:28:02.600 --> 01:28:06.800
pooing with you? Doesn't it? I said no, and then

1085
01:28:06.840 --> 01:28:08.439
I think about it and like, yeah, it does things

1086
01:28:08.479 --> 01:28:13.279
it doesn't it. Oh, well, you've got the laughing stream.

1087
01:28:13.720 --> 01:28:20.920
Imagine stepping into a warm, clear stream stream. Imagine okay,

1088
01:28:21.479 --> 01:28:27.039
clear stream whose water contains laughter, joy, and playfulness. Feel

1089
01:28:27.399 --> 01:28:36.279
earnestly being washed away, effortlessly replaced by a joyful, carefree attitude.

1090
01:28:40.000 --> 01:28:44.119
I mean, I think that's part that can be a

1091
01:28:44.199 --> 01:28:48.800
benefit of dressing up. And I know I've heard that

1092
01:28:48.920 --> 01:28:52.560
quite a few people dress up, like dressing up or

1093
01:28:53.159 --> 01:28:57.239
maybe acting, doing drama, taking on a different role because

1094
01:28:57.279 --> 01:29:03.359
they have a break from themselves. Maybe at the weekend

1095
01:29:03.439 --> 01:29:06.600
they'll go out and there'll be a different person, or

1096
01:29:06.640 --> 01:29:12.560
maybe even moving to a different place, a new job.

1097
01:29:14.000 --> 01:29:18.119
H It's almost that you get a chance to reinvent yourself.

1098
01:29:23.399 --> 01:29:27.079
So oh so before I go, I've got to tell

1099
01:29:27.079 --> 01:29:30.319
you that story about the chocolate. This is Oh, it's

1100
01:29:30.399 --> 01:29:38.920
just so embarrassing. Right, my friend opposite needs his stuff removed.

1101
01:29:40.159 --> 01:29:43.680
He's sort of like got fridge. He's got I think

1102
01:29:43.720 --> 01:29:46.760
the freezing easy go because it's it's rusty on the outside.

1103
01:29:47.000 --> 01:29:49.199
And he's now just got this brand new kitchen him

1104
01:29:50.079 --> 01:29:55.920
he said, all but it works. Yeah, but just because

1105
01:29:55.960 --> 01:29:59.600
it works doesn't mean you need to keep it. I mean,

1106
01:29:59.720 --> 01:30:04.920
It's is probably about thirty years old, and it's rusty.

1107
01:30:05.239 --> 01:30:10.560
It's literally rusty on the outside. It's awful and I'm

1108
01:30:10.600 --> 01:30:12.800
not sure how safe it is either, if it's that old.

1109
01:30:14.119 --> 01:30:18.920
But we've organized for him to get a new but

1110
01:30:19.600 --> 01:30:23.239
it's a second anthriage, but from Del Boy, who's another

1111
01:30:23.319 --> 01:30:26.560
neighbor who buys and sells stuff. So he's got it

1112
01:30:26.640 --> 01:30:30.920
in his garage. So we're going to get that when

1113
01:30:31.359 --> 01:30:36.359
the kitchen's finished in a couple of weeks. So I'm

1114
01:30:36.479 --> 01:30:43.960
going I go for a walk. I said the word

1115
01:30:44.840 --> 01:30:50.359
I took Vinnie out, so yes, I had the chocolate. Anyway,

1116
01:30:50.760 --> 01:30:55.640
I'm finishing what I'm doing. I go out, take him

1117
01:30:55.680 --> 01:30:58.359
out and just walk around. I must have been out

1118
01:30:58.359 --> 01:31:01.399
for about I don't know how for an hour. He

1119
01:31:01.560 --> 01:31:09.319
was just smelling the grass as he does normally. Did

1120
01:31:09.399 --> 01:31:10.159
I see anyone?

1121
01:31:10.199 --> 01:31:10.279
Oh?

1122
01:31:10.359 --> 01:31:12.920
Yeah, I saw there was one man that said a

1123
01:31:12.960 --> 01:31:16.680
load to him, and he actually said thank you for

1124
01:31:16.800 --> 01:31:22.680
stopping and talking to me, so that was nice. And

1125
01:31:23.399 --> 01:31:25.000
then he said, why are you holding your hand out?

1126
01:31:25.000 --> 01:31:30.159
I said money. You don't get a conversation with me

1127
01:31:30.279 --> 01:31:34.960
for nothing. It is I charge a pound a minute.

1128
01:31:36.560 --> 01:31:40.880
We laughed, and I saw a cut. I think we

1129
01:31:41.039 --> 01:31:47.359
saw another dog owner. It wasn't a lot going on.

1130
01:31:47.479 --> 01:31:54.920
Actually I took my hat off, so I have my

1131
01:31:55.000 --> 01:31:56.800
hat on, but it was too warm to have my

1132
01:31:56.880 --> 01:32:02.560
hat on. The thing is I roughly remembered saying that

1133
01:32:02.720 --> 01:32:05.880
to somebody that I had my hat on, but then

1134
01:32:05.920 --> 01:32:09.920
I took it off because it was warm. I don't

1135
01:32:09.920 --> 01:32:13.720
know who it was. Anyway, we come back. He did

1136
01:32:13.800 --> 01:32:16.680
a did a he went to a toilet, got rid

1137
01:32:16.720 --> 01:32:21.359
of that and picked it up, used the bag this time,

1138
01:32:22.600 --> 01:32:26.520
less washing, less soap, you know. And so get back

1139
01:32:31.760 --> 01:32:37.680
and I think, I'm just on the way upstairs, and

1140
01:32:37.840 --> 01:32:44.479
I see the the person that takes the rubbish like

1141
01:32:44.880 --> 01:32:48.560
he's like a it's certainly like take stuff and pick

1142
01:32:48.640 --> 01:32:51.680
stuff up for people in that, you know, big things

1143
01:32:51.800 --> 01:32:54.880
and stuff. And I asked him about because I spoke

1144
01:32:54.880 --> 01:32:56.600
to him before, and I said, is there any can

1145
01:32:56.640 --> 01:32:59.279
you help with the with my friend's stuff? So we

1146
01:33:00.039 --> 01:33:02.720
said a couple of weeks time. So I arranged that

1147
01:33:02.840 --> 01:33:04.640
with him, and I said, he may just give me

1148
01:33:04.640 --> 01:33:11.319
a knock and then I said not now I'm not

1149
01:33:11.439 --> 01:33:15.279
in my head, so he's okay. So I went went

1150
01:33:15.479 --> 01:33:19.880
not gave my neighbor a knock and said, here's what's

1151
01:33:19.960 --> 01:33:23.319
going on. You see you down there? I said, if

1152
01:33:23.359 --> 01:33:25.920
you come out and just look at that van. He

1153
01:33:26.039 --> 01:33:29.199
spent about ten minutes step coming out of the door.

1154
01:33:32.039 --> 01:33:34.079
I don't know why he spent so I know he's

1155
01:33:34.159 --> 01:33:38.680
nearly eighty, but he really it's almost like you'll you'll

1156
01:33:38.800 --> 01:33:41.920
move in him really slowly on purpose there. I mean

1157
01:33:41.960 --> 01:33:48.159
it was like super slow. We guaranteed if I said

1158
01:33:48.199 --> 01:33:50.760
to him, oh, the chip vans out there, he'd have

1159
01:33:50.880 --> 01:33:52.119
moved super fast.

1160
01:33:53.800 --> 01:33:54.199
Anyway.

1161
01:33:58.680 --> 01:34:02.239
The I just explained to him what's going to happen

1162
01:34:03.760 --> 01:34:06.119
that I've organized for him to have the old stuff

1163
01:34:06.159 --> 01:34:07.720
that he's got a cooker as well that he doesn't

1164
01:34:07.840 --> 01:34:12.199
use that's going out the new it's old. All this

1165
01:34:12.319 --> 01:34:14.760
has been there for a long long time. He's got

1166
01:34:14.800 --> 01:34:17.560
the same cooker as me, really, and he's got a

1167
01:34:17.640 --> 01:34:19.720
fridge that's going to go into the same gap as

1168
01:34:19.720 --> 01:34:22.439
where the cooker was because he uses the air fryer,

1169
01:34:23.520 --> 01:34:32.159
doesn't need doesn't need a cooker. So I do that

1170
01:34:32.319 --> 01:34:35.560
and like, okay, everything's fine. He wants to talk about golf,

1171
01:34:35.600 --> 01:34:40.159
and I'm like, no, I can't talk about golf because

1172
01:34:40.439 --> 01:34:42.359
I showed a bit of interest in golf, and he

1173
01:34:42.479 --> 01:34:46.199
just he thinks I like golf. I don't. I don't

1174
01:34:46.239 --> 01:34:49.359
dislike any sport. I'm just only interested in boxing. It's

1175
01:34:49.399 --> 01:34:53.520
the only one I've got, seriously, no interest in any

1176
01:34:53.560 --> 01:35:01.239
other sport. You know, boxing I know about. That's the

1177
01:35:01.359 --> 01:35:05.039
only sport I really know about. That I know quite

1178
01:35:05.039 --> 01:35:07.319
a bit about, and I've been following it since I

1179
01:35:07.439 --> 01:35:17.640
was a kid. So anyway, I get indoors. I think

1180
01:35:18.199 --> 01:35:24.640
the delivery comes, so I've ordered the delivery before I

1181
01:35:24.720 --> 01:35:29.399
went out. I go back and sit down. The delivery comes,

1182
01:35:30.239 --> 01:35:35.359
and so I walk outside. Oh no, this is what happens. No,

1183
01:35:35.640 --> 01:35:38.680
I got it the wrong way around. I come upstairs.

1184
01:35:39.079 --> 01:35:42.520
The delivery comes. I then go downstairs help with the delivery.

1185
01:35:43.239 --> 01:35:46.359
Then I see the person outside speak to him about

1186
01:35:46.399 --> 01:35:50.800
the fridge because I had uber it's deliver me some groceries.

1187
01:35:52.079 --> 01:35:55.760
And then I knocked on my friends at the neighbor's door,

1188
01:35:56.239 --> 01:35:58.600
explain to him what's going on. Two weeks time. They'll

1189
01:35:58.640 --> 01:36:01.880
take that stuff and all that and then we'll come in.

1190
01:36:02.319 --> 01:36:05.760
Then we Then I came into my flat put the

1191
01:36:05.840 --> 01:36:11.119
stuff away. Finny he had some treats. He loves them. Yeah,

1192
01:36:11.159 --> 01:36:13.199
you heard the word treats. Didn't you sign mate? I

1193
01:36:13.199 --> 01:36:18.439
shouldn't be saying that. And then I came with treats

1194
01:36:18.560 --> 01:36:21.239
and I sit down and I thought, oh, I need

1195
01:36:21.319 --> 01:36:24.279
a wei wei So I go into the into the bathroom,

1196
01:36:24.880 --> 01:36:28.720
go into the kitchen. Wow, I nearly said that, didn'tight. No.

1197
01:36:28.800 --> 01:36:32.119
I went to the bathroom and did did a we

1198
01:36:32.279 --> 01:36:37.720
wie wash my hands, and you know that's quite often

1199
01:36:37.760 --> 01:36:39.720
I do. I just was look in the mirror and

1200
01:36:39.880 --> 01:36:45.399
just feel sorry for myself for a few minutes. I

1201
01:36:45.439 --> 01:36:48.199
couldn't leave what I saw. There was toffee sticking out

1202
01:36:48.319 --> 01:36:51.800
my beard, all over my bed from the the caramel

1203
01:36:53.319 --> 01:36:57.640
Cabri's dairy milk caramel, so the the caramel midd or whatever.

1204
01:36:57.720 --> 01:37:01.239
It was sticking in my bed because my beer is

1205
01:37:01.279 --> 01:37:03.520
now too long to even feel it, so it wasn't

1206
01:37:03.520 --> 01:37:06.159
against my skin, but it was just all dripping down.

1207
01:37:10.479 --> 01:37:14.800
I couldn't believe it. I was walking around with that

1208
01:37:15.079 --> 01:37:23.760
on my chin for the last hour. I've been embarrassed

1209
01:37:23.800 --> 01:37:32.399
before many times, many many, many times. But this this

1210
01:37:32.760 --> 01:37:42.520
was yeah, this was wrong. It was just just anyway,

1211
01:37:45.239 --> 01:37:48.840
that's it, really. I hope this has been mildly helpful.

1212
01:37:49.720 --> 01:37:51.640
I can't see how it would be. But if it was,

1213
01:37:51.760 --> 01:37:55.640
then good. If it wasn't, then I hope it was.

1214
01:37:57.000 --> 01:37:58.880
I got no idea how long I was talking for.

1215
01:37:59.720 --> 01:38:02.800
It seems like a long time, but then in a

1216
01:38:02.880 --> 01:38:06.399
way it doesn't. Should we have a look according to

1217
01:38:06.520 --> 01:38:10.159
that one hour and over an hour and a half,

1218
01:38:10.239 --> 01:38:16.279
I've been talking. Belind me, sir, I'm going to go

1219
01:38:19.920 --> 01:38:22.680
give Vinya another t r e e e e e

1220
01:38:22.960 --> 01:38:29.840
e e e e e T And that's that's it

1221
01:38:30.039 --> 01:38:33.680
for me for now. So thank you for listening. Remember

1222
01:38:33.720 --> 01:38:36.000
to be kind to yourself, because you do deserve to

1223
01:38:36.079 --> 01:38:43.359
be happy a be gentle with yourself. Notice how the

1224
01:38:43.399 --> 01:38:46.600
way you feel has changed since you started listening to this.

1225
01:38:48.439 --> 01:38:54.199
And if this is useful and it helps beneficial, maybe

1226
01:38:54.479 --> 01:38:59.399
let me know lot other people know share the love man,

1227
01:39:00.640 --> 01:39:05.520
just I sometimes think that it's almost like on people's

1228
01:39:05.560 --> 01:39:08.279
dirty little secret. You know, they found me on a

1229
01:39:08.359 --> 01:39:10.720
weird part of the internet. It's like that I stop

1230
01:39:10.840 --> 01:39:16.640
telling anyone else. I wonder if feel embarrassed about me.

1231
01:39:17.000 --> 01:39:24.199
I don't know. Anyway, Thanks for listening and I will

1232
01:39:24.399 --> 01:39:32.720
be back again soon. Take care, lots of love, bye.

1233
01:39:38.479 --> 01:39:52.960
Relax in a more deep and meaningful way. Maybe in

1234
01:39:53.079 --> 01:39:58.560
a way that can not just allow you to feel

1235
01:40:00.119 --> 01:40:09.079
harmor now and throughout the time we spend together here,

1236
01:40:11.279 --> 01:40:16.960
not just relaxed at the end of the recording when

1237
01:40:16.960 --> 01:40:23.600
it's finished and you can enjoy that sense of comfort

1238
01:40:23.840 --> 01:40:38.680
and peace, but also I think it would be nice

1239
01:40:38.840 --> 01:40:58.600
to have those feelings of relaxation continue for longer after

1240
01:40:58.720 --> 01:41:09.279
the recording is ending, so that you can still benefit

1241
01:41:12.159 --> 01:41:19.399
from listening to my voice, maybe in a few hours time,

1242
01:41:21.359 --> 01:41:34.800
perhaps tomorrow, and then by listening regularly, especially if you

1243
01:41:35.000 --> 01:41:39.239
find like some people do and myself as well. I

1244
01:41:39.800 --> 01:41:46.520
sometimes I find one particular recording that really resonates with me,

1245
01:41:50.920 --> 01:41:53.239
and I just listen to it over and over again

1246
01:41:55.560 --> 01:42:08.560
every morning, every evening. There was this recording from We're

1247
01:42:08.600 --> 01:42:14.319
going back to about nineteen ninety nine. It wasn't hypnosis,

1248
01:42:14.439 --> 01:42:19.720
but it was a guided visualizations. It kind of was hypnosis, really,

1249
01:42:22.199 --> 01:42:27.359
and I managed to find it again and it still

1250
01:42:27.479 --> 01:42:32.880
has the same effect on me. And part of it

1251
01:42:33.239 --> 01:42:47.920
was the person's voice relaxed me, just felt so peaceful,

1252
01:42:50.079 --> 01:42:56.520
and I'd look forward to listening to her in the

1253
01:42:56.680 --> 01:43:07.319
morning and in the evening. And I knew before even

1254
01:43:08.119 --> 01:43:16.560
pressing the play button that since I've done that, pressed

1255
01:43:16.600 --> 01:43:25.800
the play button. This is in the days of CD players,

1256
01:43:28.800 --> 01:43:34.279
press the play button. In fact, it might have even

1257
01:43:34.319 --> 01:43:38.520
been a tape tape recorder. I'd lie down on the

1258
01:43:38.600 --> 01:43:51.960
bed and then even without necessarily listening to her words

1259
01:43:55.319 --> 01:44:04.600
because I had them memorized. Really, it was as if

1260
01:44:04.720 --> 01:44:15.920
my body knew exactly what to do, and the muscles

1261
01:44:16.199 --> 01:44:37.520
just almost went into automatic relaxation, and I remember my

1262
01:44:37.760 --> 01:44:51.640
mind would slow down. Now. Now, I was listening to

1263
01:44:51.760 --> 01:45:00.960
this recording in the early days of learning hypnosis, and

1264
01:45:01.199 --> 01:45:10.079
long before I ever made any videos or audio recordings myself,

1265
01:45:11.319 --> 01:45:14.640
because I didn't start doing that till two thousand and six,

1266
01:45:21.600 --> 01:45:37.520
I knew. I knew how helpful I found being able

1267
01:45:37.600 --> 01:45:46.600
to just let go, to have that trust in the

1268
01:45:46.760 --> 01:45:57.079
person that I'm listening to, knowing that it's going to

1269
01:45:57.159 --> 01:46:07.920
be just as relaxing, if not more so. Each time

1270
01:46:08.239 --> 01:46:20.720
you hear my voice, you may feel the same. Some

1271
01:46:21.079 --> 01:46:27.640
people have been listening to me for over a decade,

1272
01:46:36.119 --> 01:46:40.079
maybe not solidly, obviously not twenty four hours a day,

1273
01:46:41.880 --> 01:46:48.399
but maybe people come back. Some people may be listen

1274
01:46:48.479 --> 01:47:05.000
every day. And something that I do which you may

1275
01:47:05.159 --> 01:47:24.000
not realize by listening, is when I record these recordings.

1276
01:47:25.720 --> 01:47:25.920
Now.

1277
01:47:26.239 --> 01:47:38.760
For example, I also am affected by the words that

1278
01:47:38.920 --> 01:47:50.359
I say. So if I said to you, focus on

1279
01:47:50.520 --> 01:47:59.960
your feet, notice your feet relaxing, I would be focus

1280
01:48:00.159 --> 01:48:12.920
sin on my feet. I will be noticing my feet relaxing.

1281
01:48:22.840 --> 01:48:29.039
If I said, focus on your hands, and maybe notice

1282
01:48:29.199 --> 01:48:40.600
the difference between each hand, perhaps notice the the air

1283
01:48:41.119 --> 01:48:45.720
in the room, the temperature of the room. On the

1284
01:48:45.840 --> 01:48:57.640
backs of your hands. You may start to notice what

1285
01:48:57.760 --> 01:49:05.039
almost feels like a very light breeze, even though there

1286
01:49:05.920 --> 01:49:10.960
may not be any type of breeze at all where

1287
01:49:11.039 --> 01:49:23.239
you are right now. And as you become aware of

1288
01:49:24.680 --> 01:49:38.000
your hands, I'm also aware of how relaxed my hands

1289
01:49:42.039 --> 01:50:04.319
are feeling now. And when it comes to potentially drifting

1290
01:50:04.479 --> 01:50:09.520
off to sleep, which may be the reason you're listening,

1291
01:50:15.239 --> 01:50:29.800
I also feel drowsy when I make these recordings. I

1292
01:50:30.000 --> 01:50:48.399
also notice my mind drifting. In fact, at times I've

1293
01:50:48.479 --> 01:51:02.880
actually fallen asleep without even noticing, and then I carry

1294
01:51:02.960 --> 01:51:14.600
on talking. It's only when I listen back to do

1295
01:51:14.760 --> 01:51:23.840
the editing I hear snoring and I think I don't

1296
01:51:23.840 --> 01:51:34.319
remember snoring. I remember talking. It is snoring. Was a

1297
01:51:34.439 --> 01:51:40.640
pig turned up. That's why I sound like when I

1298
01:51:40.800 --> 01:51:59.439
snare and I get really into the whole experience. I

1299
01:51:59.520 --> 01:52:09.000
don't know how you feel, how relaxed you feel in

1300
01:52:09.079 --> 01:52:34.640
your feet, how relaxed you feel in your hands. I

1301
01:52:34.800 --> 01:52:48.960
have noticed more and more that the more relaxed, deeper

1302
01:52:54.039 --> 01:53:04.359
level of comfort you feel, the easier your breathing becomes.

1303
01:53:10.920 --> 01:53:27.600
It's almost like that additional muscle relaxation. So this allows

1304
01:53:27.680 --> 01:53:58.720
you to breathe easier without necessarily focusing on your breath, however,

1305
01:53:59.000 --> 01:54:27.079
being able to, yeah, notice the ease in which you

1306
01:54:27.319 --> 01:54:49.640
breathe so naturally. You breathe so very easily and smoothly.

1307
01:55:17.399 --> 01:55:35.079
Whenever I imagine my breathing improving, when I've got my

1308
01:55:35.239 --> 01:55:53.840
eyes closed, I tend to visualize a beautiful field with

1309
01:55:54.199 --> 01:56:28.079
trees and flowers producing all that life giving oxygen. It

1310
01:56:28.359 --> 01:56:44.439
feels nice too, if nothing else, just taking some time

1311
01:56:50.399 --> 01:57:38.479
away from everything, enjoying that feeling of peace, serenity with

1312
01:57:38.760 --> 01:58:15.239
a joyful heart. Time seems to just drip by so

1313
01:58:16.479 --> 01:59:05.000
very slowly, relaxed, so deeply peaceful, completely unattacked, watched to

1314
01:59:05.920 --> 02:00:02.840
any thoughts whatsoever in this moment, completely free, noticing that

1315
02:00:10.399 --> 02:00:56.880
your mind has slowed down, slowed down because nothing really

1316
02:00:57.199 --> 02:01:27.760
requires your attention. You can enjoy the physical sensations of

1317
02:01:27.920 --> 02:01:40.399
allowing the stress to rip out of your body, to

1318
02:01:40.520 --> 02:02:05.159
appear out of every part of your body, being released

1319
02:02:10.479 --> 02:02:50.119
from your brain in your mind, slowly but surely, the

1320
02:02:50.399 --> 02:03:44.199
muscles in your legs relax so very deeply, relax so deeply.

1321
02:04:02.039 --> 02:04:12.119
And the feelings, the pleasant feelings in your arms and shoulders,

1322
02:04:30.079 --> 02:05:09.760
deepening each part of your body further and deeper and deeper. Noticine,

1323
02:05:13.039 --> 02:05:39.520
the feelings in the back of your neck, the feelings

1324
02:05:39.760 --> 02:06:28.560
in your wrists, muscles in front of your body. I

1325
02:06:28.800 --> 02:07:12.600
all say, feeling peaceful deeply, there's a sense of peace

1326
02:07:17.119 --> 02:07:56.960
spreads through your very core. Even when you focus on

1327
02:07:57.119 --> 02:08:56.319
your mind. Her mind becomes be and slower, even deeper, relaxing,

1328
02:09:20.159 --> 02:10:26.760
so very slow. His stomach, he's forin you's stomach, your back. Notice,

1329
02:10:37.039 --> 02:10:55.479
Notice how relaxed you'd never fear. In the hole of

1330
02:10:55.640 --> 02:11:28.560
your back. Your spy from your brain all the way

1331
02:11:28.720 --> 02:11:40.079
down the middle of your back, sending and receiving millions

1332
02:11:40.159 --> 02:12:10.720
of messages every day, deep comfort, increasing, deep playing ri

1333
02:12:41.439 --> 02:13:16.039
you mes relegs, spreading those signals down a spine or

1334
02:13:16.199 --> 02:13:39.560
cord into air, every part of your body, your shins

1335
02:13:39.760 --> 02:14:30.479
and your calf muscles, your elbows, feelings of peace and

1336
02:14:30.680 --> 02:14:48.680
tranquility spreading through your body, tips of your toes to

1337
02:14:48.840 --> 02:15:13.239
your eyes, your fingers. All wait, you'll lower back, letting go,

1338
02:15:15.479 --> 02:16:27.279
reletinker pace, drifting, mind just wandering away, happy to let go,

1339
02:16:30.760 --> 02:17:32.040
let go completely, let go, so tranquil, the whole body

1340
02:17:36.399 --> 02:19:18.360
enjoying a sense listening God he for more peace. Four,

1341
02:19:52.079 --> 02:20:43.319
enjoy the space, this space of peace and safety. So fary, relaxed,

1342
02:22:13.200 --> 02:22:37.879
letting go. Maybe we can just focus on the different

1343
02:22:38.280 --> 02:23:13.079
parts of your body, just to notice a forehead and

1344
02:23:13.360 --> 02:24:19.799
your eyes Ito so Louise, noticing the sense of complete freedom,

1345
02:24:31.840 --> 02:26:24.239
absolute freedom, PRIs prising, peace for energy, peace to breeze,

1346
02:26:28.120 --> 02:27:38.959
such easier loose you may have you may not have

1347
02:27:39.200 --> 02:28:46.079
noticed your mind drifting, peaceful, moveingly, even more deeply in

1348
02:28:46.239 --> 02:29:33.799
the direction of total blissful peace, bliss for peace, terrest,

1349
02:30:21.760 --> 02:30:22.959
total peace.

1350
02:30:47.680 --> 02:31:34.520
Come, so calm, let him go, peace with mind.

1351
02:31:43.799 --> 02:32:18.280
Rexed forty, So relaxed, so relaxed.

1352
02:32:42.760 --> 02:33:09.600
Your body feels almost invisible. So the very relaxed. I'm peaceful,

1353
02:33:15.959 --> 02:34:26.079
so peaceful, relax liquor and you could start to notice

1354
02:34:26.479 --> 02:34:35.479
that you are feeling more relaxed. Even though I've not

1355
02:34:37.239 --> 02:34:47.920
purposely focused your mind upon that sense of physical comfort

1356
02:34:48.639 --> 02:34:55.479
that is growing within you throughout your body, and your

1357
02:34:55.600 --> 02:35:06.159
mind starts to slow down, and that could be almost

1358
02:35:06.360 --> 02:35:15.879
in recognition of I guess my speech not being particularly fast,

1359
02:35:22.440 --> 02:35:32.840
and things just generally feel calmer. Just by listening to

1360
02:35:33.000 --> 02:35:41.559
my voice, you give yourself an opportunity to take a

1361
02:35:41.719 --> 02:35:48.479
break from the day, take a break from your life

1362
02:35:49.639 --> 02:35:58.120
as it is, and to give yourself a rest, giving

1363
02:35:58.159 --> 02:36:05.639
yourself permission to take some time off and to allow

1364
02:36:05.840 --> 02:36:11.959
your body to relax and allow your mind to slow down,

1365
02:36:16.040 --> 02:36:23.719
which in turn releases the tension and he stresses that

1366
02:36:23.920 --> 02:36:33.600
you had in your body. It's almost as if the

1367
02:36:33.719 --> 02:36:38.680
parts of your body just open up, allowing the negativity

1368
02:36:39.040 --> 02:36:50.879
out and at the same time replacing that negativity with

1369
02:36:51.559 --> 02:37:01.159
positive heathing energy, which then fills your body up and

1370
02:37:01.319 --> 02:37:13.440
your mind to also starts to appreciate those feelings of

1371
02:37:14.719 --> 02:37:34.200
increasing confidence, an almost uplifting feeling, positive healing, an energy

1372
02:37:34.559 --> 02:37:45.120
that spreads through your body like a wave of comfort,

1373
02:37:49.959 --> 02:37:59.639
and all this comes and just allowing yourself a few

1374
02:37:59.719 --> 02:38:04.760
minutes it's maybe half an hour, however long you want

1375
02:38:04.840 --> 02:38:17.639
it to be, to just rest and allow your mind

1376
02:38:17.840 --> 02:38:28.559
and your body to almost reset itself to the settings

1377
02:38:28.760 --> 02:38:44.280
of comfort and relaxation, calmness, which allows more room for

1378
02:38:45.719 --> 02:38:57.719
feelings of pleasure and happiness to move around your body

1379
02:38:59.520 --> 02:39:05.959
and into your mind, almost as if your mind and

1380
02:39:06.079 --> 02:39:17.600
your body are sinking together, almost mirroring each other with

1381
02:39:18.079 --> 02:39:32.479
that growing positivity and calmness. And it feels nice, really

1382
02:39:32.600 --> 02:39:38.479
does feel nice to know that you are the one

1383
02:39:38.600 --> 02:39:51.799
that has allowed yourself to feel more comfort and to

1384
02:39:52.159 --> 02:40:05.600
experience more of this deep, real laxation spreading throughout your body.

1385
02:40:12.639 --> 02:40:17.959
And as I focus on each part of your body,

1386
02:40:20.360 --> 02:40:32.399
you can notice that that part becomes even more relaxed

1387
02:40:34.399 --> 02:40:43.239
just by focusing on it. It becomes even more calm

1388
02:40:43.520 --> 02:40:54.239
and comfortable just by focusing. And as I move down

1389
02:40:54.479 --> 02:41:02.079
your body, starting at your head, the parts that you've

1390
02:41:02.399 --> 02:41:12.319
already focused on will continue to relax deeply, and those

1391
02:41:12.520 --> 02:41:19.200
parts that we've not yet focused on or just automatically

1392
02:41:23.000 --> 02:41:31.760
release any remain intention in anticipation of even more comfort

1393
02:41:33.079 --> 02:41:43.799
about to come. Now, I'm going to start by focusing

1394
02:41:44.479 --> 02:41:50.920
on your forehead, just being aware of the feelings of

1395
02:41:51.040 --> 02:42:01.319
your forehead and any background sounds like mister Herbert the

1396
02:42:01.399 --> 02:42:06.760
pigeon can just allow you to feel even more relaxed.

1397
02:42:10.680 --> 02:42:16.799
Just means you in the moment, this isn't this isn't

1398
02:42:16.799 --> 02:42:24.799
a sterile environment. This is the world. I live in

1399
02:42:24.920 --> 02:42:37.200
the countryside, so there's lots of nature sounds around. So

1400
02:42:37.280 --> 02:42:42.360
as you focus on your forehead, just notice how it

1401
02:42:42.680 --> 02:42:52.600
becomes even more relaxed as you focus only on my

1402
02:42:52.879 --> 02:43:02.399
voice and that part of your body. Moving down to

1403
02:43:02.559 --> 02:43:14.879
your eyes, Focusing on your eyes, noticing how the your

1404
02:43:14.959 --> 02:43:22.760
eyelids feel so heavy yet so light at the same time,

1405
02:43:26.159 --> 02:43:36.799
and all the muscles around your eyes relaxing completely. Moving

1406
02:43:36.920 --> 02:43:44.079
your focus down to your mouth, your lips, your tongue,

1407
02:43:45.319 --> 02:43:53.239
your teeth, and your gums, the whole of your mouth relaxing,

1408
02:43:56.760 --> 02:44:06.959
calm and loose. As you focus now on your jaw,

1409
02:44:10.079 --> 02:44:13.600
not just the parts of your jaw near your mouth

1410
02:44:14.440 --> 02:44:18.760
and your chin, but all the way up the size

1411
02:44:18.799 --> 02:44:25.639
of your face to your ears, the hole of your jaw,

1412
02:44:28.280 --> 02:44:55.799
feeding more relaxed, calm. Focusing on your neck, the front

1413
02:44:55.920 --> 02:45:04.559
of your neck and your throat accent and loose and calm.

1414
02:45:08.719 --> 02:45:14.520
The sides of your neck, the right and left side

1415
02:45:14.680 --> 02:45:33.000
of your neck relax and loose and calm. And now

1416
02:45:33.319 --> 02:45:40.079
the back of your neck, focusing on the back of

1417
02:45:40.239 --> 02:45:50.399
your neck, letting go of any tension that may have

1418
02:45:50.559 --> 02:46:03.120
been there before, and enjoying that sense of increasing comfort

1419
02:46:03.920 --> 02:46:11.159
and release that you can experience in the back of

1420
02:46:11.239 --> 02:46:24.120
your neck, moving down your back and moving either side

1421
02:46:24.159 --> 02:46:28.239
of your spine right from the top of your back

1422
02:46:30.200 --> 02:46:33.799
all the way down to the bottom of your back,

1423
02:46:39.879 --> 02:46:51.159
down to your lower back. And as you move up

1424
02:46:51.239 --> 02:46:59.959
and down your spine, you can feel the muscles even

1425
02:47:00.079 --> 02:47:13.440
the side of your spine relaxing even more. And as

1426
02:47:13.520 --> 02:47:20.680
those muscles relax, that sense of comfort starts to spread

1427
02:47:22.280 --> 02:47:30.639
outwards from your spine into both sides of your back,

1428
02:47:34.440 --> 02:47:38.120
the top of your back, the middle and your lower back.

1429
02:47:41.639 --> 02:47:48.760
And as you scan gently and slowly up and down

1430
02:47:48.959 --> 02:47:54.000
your back, there's the muscles in the top of your

1431
02:47:54.120 --> 02:48:04.079
back relax and become looser. The muscles in the middle

1432
02:48:04.120 --> 02:48:11.440
of your back also seem to just almost divide from

1433
02:48:11.479 --> 02:48:24.879
each other, separating and almost melting, and in your lower

1434
02:48:25.000 --> 02:48:36.520
back there seems to be an extra special feeling of comfort.

1435
02:48:41.799 --> 02:48:47.959
The spreads into your hips, so down your lower back,

1436
02:48:48.280 --> 02:48:56.239
into your hips, into the area where your cosis are,

1437
02:49:00.079 --> 02:49:08.959
into your buttocks, and all these muscles that spread from

1438
02:49:09.000 --> 02:49:18.479
your lower back into your hip area, start to melt,

1439
02:49:22.959 --> 02:49:35.239
start to really let go. I don't even nowhere about

1440
02:49:35.399 --> 02:49:41.399
to focus on your shoulders. Your back and your spine

1441
02:49:42.440 --> 02:49:59.239
will continue to let go, continue to relax so calmly.

1442
02:50:03.920 --> 02:50:08.840
And as you focus on your shoulders, you may notice

1443
02:50:09.079 --> 02:50:33.200
that they're already feeding really loose, They're already feeding calm,

1444
02:50:39.559 --> 02:50:50.559
and they're feeding those muscles. Then move from your neck

1445
02:50:51.959 --> 02:51:10.719
into your shoulders. You're so soft and gentle, so smooth

1446
02:51:16.959 --> 02:51:39.440
and calm, and the feeling in your shoulders seems to

1447
02:51:39.920 --> 02:51:48.360
spread deep into your shoulders, that sense of relaxation, not

1448
02:51:48.920 --> 02:52:02.719
just traveling deeply into your muscles, but also relaxing the

1449
02:52:02.879 --> 02:52:16.079
bones and moving all away to underneath your arms, relaxing

1450
02:52:17.879 --> 02:52:22.680
that whole area between the tops of your shoulders and

1451
02:52:22.920 --> 02:52:41.360
underneath your arms healing. You feel so relaxed and comfortable

1452
02:52:42.600 --> 02:53:01.879
in your shoulders. Who sends that deep healing message into

1453
02:53:01.959 --> 02:53:13.479
your arms And you may feel almost as if your

1454
02:53:13.840 --> 02:53:23.079
arms are not even there because they're so relaxed, so

1455
02:53:24.680 --> 02:54:10.159
deeply relaxed, so so calm, so loose, not feeling spreading

1456
02:54:12.959 --> 02:54:26.680
all the way down your arms two elbows, including your

1457
02:54:26.799 --> 02:54:53.040
elbows circumforts spreads or away into your wrists, your forearments

1458
02:54:53.520 --> 02:55:07.399
and your wrists feeling so heavy yet at the same

1459
02:55:08.680 --> 02:55:59.920
time so light and gentle. Focus Now on your hands. Mhm,

1460
02:56:16.120 --> 02:56:47.719
my hands, so peaceful in your hands. There's a sense

1461
02:56:47.840 --> 02:57:12.719
of real peace. It just seems to I feel so

1462
02:57:13.159 --> 02:58:26.559
familiar when your hands relax deeply. Is your things, you things, sids?

1463
02:58:55.760 --> 02:59:29.239
You think it's hips. Moving your attention to the front

1464
02:59:29.399 --> 02:59:59.719
of your body, so comfortable, moving your focus to le

1465
03:01:19.079 --> 03:02:13.639
what muscles in your thighs, your knees so relaxed, a

1466
03:02:13.879 --> 03:04:22.079
carved muscles, and just shins a pusyday four and the

1467
03:04:22.319 --> 03:04:43.280
fathing and your feet so peaceful, so calm, so peaceful,

1468
03:04:50.399 --> 03:05:44.200
so calm m so peaceful, syclm so peace fa rea

1469
03:05:45.159 --> 03:06:09.239
sin peace fall s come allowing that deep relaxation to

1470
03:06:09.479 --> 03:06:31.399
spread your chest, in your stomach, letting go of everything.

1471
03:06:42.680 --> 03:06:48.639
So I'm gonna start counting down now, from twenty down

1472
03:06:48.719 --> 03:06:56.840
to one. You can imagine in a way it's like

1473
03:06:57.639 --> 03:07:04.079
just walking down some steps and each step or twenty steps,

1474
03:07:04.159 --> 03:07:13.280
and each step represents a level of comfort. Each step

1475
03:07:13.840 --> 03:07:29.360
represents a deepening of that comfort, and the furvies you

1476
03:07:29.520 --> 03:07:35.559
walk down those steps, the deeper and more relaxed you feel,

1477
03:07:42.280 --> 03:10:17.000
so starting with number twenty twenty, nineteen, eighteen seventeen sist

1478
03:11:32.680 --> 03:18:41.719
eight fourty four teen too well five eight nine hey

1479
03:18:42.280 --> 03:28:27.120
seven us four five four yo one. And now as

1480
03:28:27.159 --> 03:28:39.600
you focus on your eyes, we're going to count down

1481
03:28:40.000 --> 03:28:55.760
from ten dout one, focusing just on your eyes, your eyelids,

1482
03:28:56.200 --> 03:29:05.479
the muscles around your eyes, your eyells themselves, our whole

1483
03:29:05.799 --> 03:29:22.639
area that makes up your eye. And as we count

1484
03:29:22.799 --> 03:29:31.600
down from ten down to one, whilst focusing on your eyes,

1485
03:29:37.920 --> 03:29:48.799
you'll become twice is relaxed with each number counting down

1486
03:29:52.959 --> 03:30:00.440
that you may find the ony you want to is

1487
03:30:01.000 --> 03:30:10.239
just drift off to sleep. And if that's what you want,

1488
03:30:13.280 --> 03:30:26.239
then just allow yourself to do that. Now, focusing on

1489
03:30:26.399 --> 03:30:33.719
your eyes, I'm going to begin counting down from ten

1490
03:30:34.079 --> 03:33:42.680
down to one right now, ten nine eight seven s

1491
03:34:47.079 --> 03:40:02.239
five four three two one two. Counting down from ten

1492
03:40:02.360 --> 03:40:23.040
to one ten nine eight seven six five four three

1493
03:40:25.959 --> 03:40:37.959
two one. And maybe that was a bit too quick

1494
03:40:38.600 --> 03:40:42.479
in order to relax. Maybe it's a bit too fast

1495
03:40:42.760 --> 03:40:51.600
for you to notice the calming of your body, maybe

1496
03:40:52.399 --> 03:40:56.280
even a little bit of pressure there, Like you're counting

1497
03:40:56.399 --> 03:40:58.840
down from ten to one. Would you expect me to

1498
03:40:59.079 --> 03:41:03.639
do man, expect me to STI go with floppy just

1499
03:41:03.719 --> 03:41:13.280
because you're counting down. We can try again, but this

1500
03:41:13.479 --> 03:41:19.799
time I go this lower. This time, as you focus

1501
03:41:20.159 --> 03:41:24.760
on the whole of your body before we focus on

1502
03:41:24.879 --> 03:41:35.239
your legs. Just notice how your body does start to

1503
03:41:35.760 --> 03:41:46.879
feel more relaxed with every number that I count down

1504
03:41:50.319 --> 03:43:19.719
ten nine, eight, seven, six, five, four, three two m one,

1505
03:43:31.079 --> 03:43:36.760
And just notice how how you feel, generally, how your

1506
03:43:36.799 --> 03:43:51.639
body feels. It's not necessarily even about counting down from

1507
03:43:51.760 --> 03:43:59.399
ten to one. It's that space that you have, that

1508
03:44:02.000 --> 03:44:22.920
space between being active physically or mentally to just sitting

1509
03:44:23.200 --> 03:44:27.719
or lying down and just being there, not doing anything,

1510
03:44:27.920 --> 03:44:34.559
not saying anything, or needing to think about anything. So

1511
03:44:35.239 --> 03:44:38.280
it opens up a space, you know, a bit of

1512
03:44:38.319 --> 03:44:49.319
a space, a gap. And the more I came down

1513
03:44:49.360 --> 03:44:56.719
from ten to one, the bigger that gap becomes. So

1514
03:44:56.879 --> 03:45:09.280
there's that gap of calmness, of comfort, relaxation. It's a

1515
03:45:09.399 --> 03:45:23.440
nice feeling, and it moves those stresses or discomforts physically

1516
03:45:23.639 --> 03:45:42.639
or emotionally, moves them away. Allows you to just slow down.

1517
03:45:46.280 --> 03:45:49.159
Someone to count again from ten down to one, and

1518
03:45:49.399 --> 03:45:59.319
notice that gap widening, the gap and as it widens.

1519
03:45:59.399 --> 03:46:05.440
It's almost like the stress and attention falls into the

1520
03:46:05.559 --> 03:46:31.000
gap and gives you that distance, that space. Now ten

1521
03:46:35.600 --> 03:48:32.600
nine eight, seven, six, five four three two one. How

1522
03:48:32.680 --> 03:48:53.719
does your body feel now? Can you notice that you

1523
03:48:53.879 --> 03:49:31.159
feeling calmer, the feeling more relaxed as we now focus

1524
03:49:31.319 --> 03:49:51.959
on your legs, just your legs. We're just gonna start

1525
03:49:52.079 --> 03:50:11.159
with focusing on your thighs. Of course, it's not the

1526
03:50:11.239 --> 03:50:19.760
most exciting thing to be doing, because I'm sure, like

1527
03:50:19.920 --> 03:50:22.399
most of your body is not a lot going on

1528
03:50:22.639 --> 03:50:35.040
right now. Just focusing on the whole of your thighs,

1529
03:50:37.879 --> 03:50:41.559
the tops of your thighs, the sides of your thighs,

1530
03:50:43.799 --> 03:50:48.280
the bottoms of your thighs, your outer thighs, and your

1531
03:50:48.360 --> 03:50:53.600
inner thighs, basically the whole of your thigh that leads

1532
03:50:54.639 --> 03:51:10.200
into your hip. I mean those down to your knee joint. Now,

1533
03:51:10.280 --> 03:51:17.280
this is a big area. It's a very heavy area.

1534
03:51:17.799 --> 03:51:23.760
It's very strong, probably the strongest muscles in your body

1535
03:51:24.479 --> 03:51:38.760
or in your thighs. But I don't think we perhaps

1536
03:51:40.760 --> 03:51:53.479
give enough attention to our thighs. Perhaps we don't acknowledge

1537
03:51:54.159 --> 03:52:13.559
how important our thighs are to our lives, how much

1538
03:52:16.159 --> 03:52:29.680
they actually do for us all through our lives. And

1539
03:52:29.799 --> 03:52:35.479
it may seem to sound really weird, but I think

1540
03:52:35.559 --> 03:52:42.479
that all of our body parts, especially our thighs, need

1541
03:52:42.680 --> 03:52:57.159
some TLC, a bit of love shown, a bit of acknowledgement,

1542
03:53:00.000 --> 03:53:08.920
thank you, gratitude for what our thighs do for us.

1543
03:53:15.520 --> 03:53:21.559
And I know this may sound is strange. Maybe you think,

1544
03:53:21.959 --> 03:53:24.879
why am I Surely I should be out in the

1545
03:53:25.000 --> 03:53:33.520
garden hugging a tree or something. Well, it's hard to

1546
03:53:33.559 --> 03:53:36.760
set a microphone up on a tree. That's why I'm

1547
03:53:36.799 --> 03:53:39.680
doing this indoors. Otherwise I would be outside hugging a tree.

1548
03:53:41.079 --> 03:53:49.719
I can't see the television from the tree. If you

1549
03:53:49.840 --> 03:53:55.040
move down to your knees getting such an important part,

1550
03:53:59.319 --> 03:54:04.440
and I think we don't necessarily I'll speak for myself here.

1551
03:54:06.920 --> 03:54:12.000
I don't necessarily appreciate all that my nees do for

1552
03:54:12.159 --> 03:54:18.639
me until I have a problem with my knee. It's occasionally,

1553
03:54:18.680 --> 03:54:23.680
if I ever maybe i'll bash it or it's aching

1554
03:54:23.840 --> 03:54:30.200
for some reason. It's then that I realize how much

1555
03:54:30.360 --> 03:54:34.000
it does. You know, the benefit of being able to

1556
03:54:34.920 --> 03:54:44.120
use my legs without any kind of physical discomfort is

1557
03:54:44.959 --> 03:54:53.680
a beautiful thing that's possibly not appreciated until it's temporarily removed.

1558
03:54:54.840 --> 03:55:01.840
You know that's comfort. But as you focus on your knees,

1559
03:55:04.000 --> 03:55:09.639
regardless of how your knees feel, you can have that

1560
03:55:09.879 --> 03:55:16.040
sense of gratitude and love to your knees for all

1561
03:55:16.200 --> 03:55:28.399
that they do for you. And you can still have

1562
03:55:28.559 --> 03:55:32.719
that attention on your thighs and maybe notice how your

1563
03:55:32.799 --> 03:55:44.680
thighs feel. Maybe you've noticed that they are relaxing more

1564
03:55:46.479 --> 03:55:58.079
deeply as you focus now on the bottoms of your legs,

1565
03:55:58.559 --> 03:56:03.920
your shins, and your calf muscles, and the bones between

1566
03:56:04.159 --> 03:56:10.959
your knees and your feet, incorporating of course, your ankles

1567
03:56:13.280 --> 03:56:24.399
so important. Anyone that's had even like the slightest sprain

1568
03:56:24.520 --> 03:56:31.479
of an ankle knows how how much we take our

1569
03:56:31.719 --> 03:56:40.239
ankles for granted. And it's kind of strange in a

1570
03:56:40.319 --> 03:56:45.879
way when you think that. You know, logically, our wrists

1571
03:56:46.079 --> 03:56:48.920
are a lot thinner than the rest of our arms,

1572
03:56:50.040 --> 03:56:53.520
which is okay, it doesn't I can't see any problem

1573
03:56:53.559 --> 03:56:58.440
with that because we're just picking stuff up. But our

1574
03:56:58.559 --> 03:57:04.360
ankles so much thinner than the rest of our legs,

1575
03:57:10.799 --> 03:57:15.239
and from a physics perspective or logical even it doesn't

1576
03:57:15.280 --> 03:57:21.280
really make sense that all this weight would ultimately be

1577
03:57:22.360 --> 03:57:32.399
resting on your ankles then leading to your feet, that

1578
03:57:33.000 --> 03:57:41.200
thin area, a thin bone. Yeah, it does so much

1579
03:57:41.319 --> 03:57:48.319
great work. Supports us, supports our body for a lifetime,

1580
03:57:53.120 --> 03:58:02.840
helps us to balance, helps you to get around and

1581
03:58:02.959 --> 03:58:17.000
be mobile. And there's the calf muscles. Of course, when

1582
03:58:17.040 --> 03:58:20.159
I was younger, I couldn't see the point in calf muscles.

1583
03:58:20.920 --> 03:58:25.639
I didn't seem to do anything. Okay, if I walked

1584
03:58:25.680 --> 03:58:29.360
around on tiptoes, then my calf muscles get some work.

1585
03:58:30.760 --> 03:58:33.319
But of course that's not true. The calf muscles are

1586
03:58:33.360 --> 03:58:43.280
being used whenever we use our legs and your shins

1587
03:58:46.520 --> 03:58:55.559
there to protect your lower legs, shaped in a way,

1588
03:58:57.360 --> 03:59:09.479
almost as a protector for the bone, leading of course

1589
03:59:09.559 --> 03:59:19.719
to your ankles and your feet. But we're not going

1590
03:59:19.799 --> 03:59:21.920
to focus on your feet. We're just going to focus

1591
03:59:22.000 --> 03:59:28.159
on the legs. And I realize that now that I've

1592
03:59:28.280 --> 03:59:32.959
mentioned your feet, it'll probably focusing on them anyway, So

1593
03:59:33.120 --> 03:59:35.520
maybe I should focus on your feet a little bit.

1594
03:59:39.520 --> 03:59:43.959
You can have them in your awareness the same as

1595
03:59:44.040 --> 03:59:48.399
you have your thighs in your awareness. Even though we

1596
03:59:48.520 --> 03:59:52.520
haven't been focusing on your thighs for a few minutes,

1597
03:59:54.280 --> 04:00:05.079
we've been focusing on your ankles. There's still that sensation

1598
04:00:05.360 --> 04:00:20.680
of comfort in your thighs, and this that movement of

1599
04:00:21.079 --> 04:00:30.479
energy because the thighs hold lots of different sensations. Of course,

1600
04:00:30.559 --> 04:00:35.319
there's the muscles, the big straw muscles that we have

1601
04:00:35.520 --> 04:00:48.840
in our thighs. But the skin on the outside of

1602
04:00:48.920 --> 04:00:54.239
the thighs, as in the outside of all of our body,

1603
04:00:55.040 --> 04:01:06.639
can be very sensitive, sensitive to the touch, sensitive to temperature.

1604
04:01:13.200 --> 04:01:20.719
And inside your thighs the bones, there's the muscle, there's

1605
04:01:20.760 --> 04:01:25.520
the blood, vessels, the ar trees, it's all this stuff

1606
04:01:25.719 --> 04:01:34.360
that's inside your thighs. And I guess sometimes it'd be

1607
04:01:34.520 --> 04:01:38.639
nice if you could actually put your fingers inside your

1608
04:01:38.719 --> 04:01:44.920
thighs and a message, so you can message on the outside,

1609
04:01:45.159 --> 04:01:48.079
of course, but to be able to get deep into

1610
04:01:48.159 --> 04:01:52.959
the muscles and to be able to just message inside

1611
04:01:53.040 --> 04:01:59.920
your thighs, message in the bones of your leg, message

1612
04:02:00.120 --> 04:02:09.360
in all the veins, and just gently healing your thighs,

1613
04:02:13.280 --> 04:02:18.479
and you could move down message and inside your knees,

1614
04:02:19.959 --> 04:02:26.760
just message in those bones, but with healing fingertips, spreading

1615
04:02:26.879 --> 04:02:32.600
that healing energy deep into the joints of your knees.

1616
04:02:38.040 --> 04:02:41.719
Of course, there's the back of your your knee you know,

1617
04:02:41.840 --> 04:02:47.840
the inside crease where your knee is. It's a very

1618
04:02:48.079 --> 04:02:53.959
sensitive area. Very it feels very nice when you stroke it.

1619
04:02:55.360 --> 04:02:58.719
That might be because it's an area that's not really

1620
04:02:58.879 --> 04:03:05.360
touched very often. It's almost like a hidden part, that

1621
04:03:05.719 --> 04:03:12.600
crease in your legs. It's almost like a part that

1622
04:03:14.440 --> 04:03:25.680
has a sensitivity, which is a little bit different. Of course,

1623
04:03:25.719 --> 04:03:36.239
it's protected by your legs. So you can imagine putting

1624
04:03:37.120 --> 04:03:46.760
your fingers into that crease in your legs, that fold

1625
04:03:46.920 --> 04:03:51.040
in between your legs. You can just massage with your fingertips.

1626
04:03:52.200 --> 04:03:58.959
Imagine your fingertips going inside, massage in the muscle tissue

1627
04:04:03.600 --> 04:04:09.760
you can cause, feel the bones of your knees healing

1628
04:04:10.040 --> 04:04:22.719
through your fingertips. And then as you go down to

1629
04:04:22.799 --> 04:04:25.600
your calf muscles. Now that's the part I'd like to

1630
04:04:25.639 --> 04:04:31.079
be able to really put my fingertips deep inside my

1631
04:04:31.280 --> 04:04:39.959
calf muscles, massage in every single tissue of that muscle,

1632
04:04:41.559 --> 04:04:51.479
healing every part. And then doing the same for my shins,

1633
04:04:54.680 --> 04:05:01.559
massage in and gently stroking the bones, gently stroking them,

1634
04:05:02.440 --> 04:05:06.600
healing in a loving way, because they deserve to be

1635
04:05:06.760 --> 04:05:14.000
treated as the precious bones that they are. Because our

1636
04:05:14.120 --> 04:05:17.639
legs are so precious as in all the other parts

1637
04:05:17.719 --> 04:05:25.360
of our body, and more precious of any jure on

1638
04:05:25.520 --> 04:05:41.799
the planet. When you start to think about your legs

1639
04:05:41.959 --> 04:05:53.079
in this way, it can change your perspective. It might

1640
04:05:53.280 --> 04:05:59.799
sound a bit a bit silly to start with, the

1641
04:06:00.120 --> 04:06:08.200
idea of having love for your legs, shown appreciation for

1642
04:06:08.319 --> 04:06:14.360
your thighs, wanting to be able to put your hands

1643
04:06:15.360 --> 04:06:22.200
in your thighs and massage the muscles and the bones,

1644
04:06:24.079 --> 04:06:29.760
and to get your fingers deep in there, releasing all tension,

1645
04:06:32.639 --> 04:06:41.280
just to show how much you care about your legs,

1646
04:06:42.159 --> 04:06:45.920
how much you care for what your legs do for

1647
04:06:46.079 --> 04:06:59.639
you regularly, your knees, your calves, your ankles, the strength

1648
04:06:59.760 --> 04:07:07.200
of your your ankles, considering how thin they are compared

1649
04:07:07.799 --> 04:07:14.440
to the rest of your legs, especially your thighs. Yeah,

1650
04:07:14.520 --> 04:07:26.600
they're so strong, so flexible, absolutely amazing things. Your ankles

1651
04:07:26.920 --> 04:07:36.040
are truly a gift because of what they do for you,

1652
04:07:41.520 --> 04:07:48.479
supporting all that weight, regardless of how what weight you are,

1653
04:07:49.639 --> 04:07:54.440
even if you only ate stone, there's still a lot

1654
04:07:54.479 --> 04:08:01.159
of weight for these little ankles. Now, I'm a lot

1655
04:08:01.399 --> 04:08:11.319
heavier than eight stoon double down, yet my ankles support

1656
04:08:11.399 --> 04:08:18.760
my body all the time. Orthough they do give off

1657
04:08:18.799 --> 04:08:24.079
a sigh of relief when I sit down as I

1658
04:08:24.200 --> 04:08:31.440
have my whole legs do my feet feet also go

1659
04:08:33.239 --> 04:08:58.799
and my toes clap. They're so happy. Your legs really

1660
04:09:00.280 --> 04:09:06.920
are amazing. And I know that about talking about your

1661
04:09:07.040 --> 04:09:13.920
legs is probably possibly among the most most boring things

1662
04:09:13.959 --> 04:09:21.159
you've ever heard anyone say. Possibly they're boring or not.

1663
04:09:22.760 --> 04:09:38.239
Everything I said is true. Your legs are amazing. Your

1664
04:09:38.360 --> 04:09:50.920
legs deserve not just respect, they deserve to relax deeply.

1665
04:09:58.239 --> 04:10:01.280
They deserve to take some time I'm out of the

1666
04:10:01.399 --> 04:10:32.520
day to just let go completely. Your legs really can relax.

1667
04:10:40.120 --> 04:10:44.239
And because the legs are so such a most, you know,

1668
04:10:44.520 --> 04:10:50.440
very important part of your body. When you relax your legs,

1669
04:10:50.520 --> 04:10:57.760
the rest of your body also naturally follows in that

1670
04:11:01.479 --> 04:11:12.319
journey of comfort. I can feel it in my hips.

1671
04:11:13.719 --> 04:11:20.840
My hips feel really loose, and also my lower back

1672
04:11:20.920 --> 04:11:27.520
as well. My lower back really feels it feels stretched,

1673
04:11:28.639 --> 04:11:31.680
even though I'm just sitting in a chair and there's

1674
04:11:31.760 --> 04:11:37.000
no stretching as far as I'm aware that I'm doing.

1675
04:11:38.040 --> 04:11:40.680
It's almost as if the muscles are just relaxed so

1676
04:11:40.920 --> 04:11:46.840
much that there is a natural stretch as the tension

1677
04:11:47.760 --> 04:12:09.000
has reduced a lot. And I'm now going to count

1678
04:12:09.079 --> 04:12:16.959
down from ten down to one, and you can continue

1679
04:12:18.799 --> 04:12:45.079
to fill wonderfully relaxed ten nine, eight, seven, six, five

1680
04:12:49.719 --> 04:13:17.760
four three two. Why relax? So I'm just going to

1681
04:13:17.879 --> 04:13:23.239
count down from fire down to one, and as a countdown,

1682
04:13:24.520 --> 04:13:29.280
if you just focus on the numbers, just the numbers

1683
04:13:30.920 --> 04:13:39.920
counting down, and notice how you feel in this moment

1684
04:13:41.680 --> 04:13:46.079
as you hear the numbers counting down, knowing that those

1685
04:13:46.239 --> 04:13:59.280
numbers counting down represent you feeling calmer, not just in

1686
04:13:59.399 --> 04:14:07.719
your body, but also relaxing your mind. I just notice

1687
04:14:07.799 --> 04:14:13.840
how you feel. There's nothing to do, there's nothing to say,

1688
04:14:14.520 --> 04:14:31.559
there's nothing to think about, starting with number five, four

1689
04:14:41.079 --> 04:15:16.840
three two one. And as you notice the gradual letting

1690
04:15:16.959 --> 04:15:25.440
go of the tension in your body, you may also

1691
04:15:26.040 --> 04:15:31.479
begin to notice and be aware of how your mind

1692
04:15:32.600 --> 04:15:40.520
is starting to slow down. This is just a natural

1693
04:15:41.360 --> 04:15:49.280
thing that happens. It's not really a special procedure. It's

1694
04:15:49.399 --> 04:15:54.680
just natural because as your body relaxes, your mind also

1695
04:15:55.440 --> 04:16:00.200
starts to relax. And the more your mind relax is,

1696
04:16:00.280 --> 04:16:04.879
the more your body relaxes. It's just a continuous circle

1697
04:16:04.959 --> 04:16:18.680
of relaxation and there's that calmness that comes from relative quietness.

1698
04:16:20.280 --> 04:16:25.159
You know, even even if there's background sounds either your

1699
04:16:25.360 --> 04:16:33.719
side online, it's still going to be quite calm. You know,

1700
04:16:33.799 --> 04:16:38.440
you haven't got the television on, there's no music in

1701
04:16:38.520 --> 04:16:41.360
the background unless you're listening to the recording. With music,

1702
04:16:41.479 --> 04:16:48.680
of course, you're very likely not going to be sitting

1703
04:16:48.719 --> 04:16:51.920
in a room with other people. Of course you might be,

1704
04:16:52.079 --> 04:16:56.440
but generally it's more ideal if you can do this

1705
04:16:56.639 --> 04:17:07.680
on your own. So notice distractions, and when you stop

1706
04:17:07.799 --> 04:17:23.200
thinking about stuff, relaxation automatically rises, a sense of comfort

1707
04:17:25.000 --> 04:17:33.840
starts to grow, and without trying to build it up

1708
04:17:33.920 --> 04:17:45.000
into something fantastical or something magical, this is just a

1709
04:17:45.239 --> 04:17:57.760
natural process, something that's easy to accomplish. In fact, it's

1710
04:17:57.879 --> 04:18:04.760
almost you know, there's chance of relaxing completely happens really

1711
04:18:04.879 --> 04:18:09.840
when you put no effort into it. It's not something

1712
04:18:09.959 --> 04:18:17.959
that you can really force. It's something that happens naturally.

1713
04:18:20.920 --> 04:18:28.200
And part of the process of this recording and others

1714
04:18:29.840 --> 04:18:41.360
is simply two allow you to take advantage of this space,

1715
04:18:44.040 --> 04:18:57.000
this time, to just let go, to just be here,

1716
04:18:58.479 --> 04:19:11.360
to be in tune with how you feel. Yet with

1717
04:19:12.120 --> 04:19:23.920
the intention of wanting to relax deeply and maybe even

1718
04:19:25.600 --> 04:19:30.000
to fall asleep, depending on what it is that you

1719
04:19:31.120 --> 04:19:44.239
wish for yourself in this moment. As we know, relaxing

1720
04:19:45.920 --> 04:19:54.040
is the majority of the process of falling asleep. The

1721
04:19:54.120 --> 04:19:58.239
actual falling asleep part is the tiny bit at the end.

1722
04:20:01.600 --> 04:20:16.280
The deeper relaxed you become, the easier you find yourself drifting.

1723
04:20:25.840 --> 04:20:32.479
You can also, if you choose, stay focused on my

1724
04:20:32.719 --> 04:21:00.680
voice and really enjoy the process of gradually relaxing each

1725
04:21:01.200 --> 04:21:27.760
muscle in your body effortlessly and just observing the sensation

1726
04:21:33.079 --> 04:21:48.719
of letting go completely. This time, I'm going to count

1727
04:21:48.799 --> 04:21:58.840
from six down to one, and you can notice your

1728
04:21:59.040 --> 04:22:09.360
mind calming down more with each number that you hear

1729
04:22:09.719 --> 04:24:58.000
me say, naturally, feeling calm and slow and peaceful, six, five, four, three, two, one,

1730
04:25:19.159 --> 04:25:28.760
being aware of how your mind has slowed right down,

1731
04:25:32.000 --> 04:25:55.399
sinking deeply into relaxation. And as you focus on your mind,

1732
04:25:55.680 --> 04:26:05.639
you may notice is that there are some thoughts still there,

1733
04:26:08.239 --> 04:26:17.760
maybe some stubborn thoughts that for some reason perhaps need

1734
04:26:17.840 --> 04:26:33.040
your attention. So what you can do is send love

1735
04:26:33.280 --> 04:26:46.920
to those thoughts. Sprinkle those thoughts with love like all

1736
04:26:47.079 --> 04:26:52.680
petals from a flower. Just sprinkle it over them, petals

1737
04:26:52.760 --> 04:26:59.879
filled with love towards those thoughts, to let those thoughts

1738
04:27:00.079 --> 04:27:06.000
to know that you're not abandoned in them. You just

1739
04:27:06.479 --> 04:27:16.520
need them. You require them to just calm down, slow down,

1740
04:27:18.840 --> 04:27:33.719
quiet down for now. So as you focus on those

1741
04:27:34.479 --> 04:27:39.360
remaining thoughts, as we count down this time from seven

1742
04:27:40.280 --> 04:27:48.959
down to one. With each number, just imagine sprinkling those

1743
04:27:49.200 --> 04:28:08.639
flower petals of love, kindness, gratitude over those thoughts, which

1744
04:28:08.680 --> 04:28:14.639
will allow them to just melt away and relax deeply.

1745
04:28:18.799 --> 04:28:33.280
With every number, those thoughts will become more and more relaxed,

1746
04:28:38.840 --> 04:30:53.280
starting with number seven, six, five, four, three, two one.

1747
04:31:09.959 --> 04:31:26.879
And as you now notice how relaxed your feeling in

1748
04:31:27.079 --> 04:31:48.600
your body, we're going to focus on your hands because

1749
04:31:48.719 --> 04:31:54.959
the more relaxed your hands are, the more relaxed your

1750
04:31:55.040 --> 04:32:15.799
body and mind are. And there's you focus on your

1751
04:32:16.000 --> 04:32:26.200
hands and your fingers. There's nothing needed to be done.

1752
04:32:27.159 --> 04:32:32.239
There's no clenching of fists or dents in the fingers

1753
04:32:32.360 --> 04:32:45.920
or anything like that. It's just noticing and focusing on

1754
04:32:46.159 --> 04:33:14.319
your hands, noticing how they feel. Because the more relaxed

1755
04:33:14.759 --> 04:33:24.439
your hands feel, the calmer your mind feels, and the

1756
04:33:24.799 --> 04:33:44.240
more comfort you feel throughout your body. You may have

1757
04:33:48.279 --> 04:34:31.400
already noticed you mind is starting to drest, fain just

1758
04:34:31.639 --> 04:34:48.799
on your hands and fingers, allowing them to experience a

1759
04:34:49.000 --> 04:34:56.959
real deepening of that relaxation in your hands and fingers,

1760
04:35:03.000 --> 04:35:25.319
more and more relaxed. With each number from eight down

1761
04:35:25.439 --> 04:35:38.279
to one. You can almost feel that healing and relaxing

1762
04:35:38.759 --> 04:35:54.880
energy spreading into your hands and fingers, becoming year more

1763
04:35:57.080 --> 04:36:13.840
relaxing with each number you hear, going down eight down

1764
04:36:14.599 --> 04:39:10.560
to one, drifting, drifting again starting with number eight, seven, six, five, four, three,

1765
04:39:41.159 --> 04:40:39.319
fo just being here now, nothing to think about, nothing

1766
04:40:39.400 --> 04:40:50.400
to do, nothing to say, and everything just feels calmer.

1767
04:40:55.000 --> 04:41:02.479
And this is your natural state of being. This is

1768
04:41:02.720 --> 04:41:09.400
how you just normally feel when you take away all

1769
04:41:09.599 --> 04:41:16.520
that other stuff that we add, you know, things like

1770
04:41:16.919 --> 04:41:32.639
stress and worrying and overthinking and anxiety, tension, just generally

1771
04:41:32.840 --> 04:41:38.959
thinking about stuff. You take that away, which is what

1772
04:41:39.080 --> 04:41:51.000
we do. What we do now, you're left with a

1773
04:41:51.119 --> 04:41:59.880
real sense of peacefulness which comes to you very quickly,

1774
04:42:04.159 --> 04:42:15.000
because ultimately it's just a feeling, a feeling of comfort.

1775
04:42:18.639 --> 04:42:21.919
It's almost as if you've gone inside yourself and you've

1776
04:42:22.040 --> 04:42:36.639
found a special place where everything is peaceful, a place

1777
04:42:36.880 --> 04:42:44.759
where you can feel relaxed and your natural sense of comfort,

1778
04:42:47.919 --> 04:42:55.319
a place where you can be you, where you can

1779
04:42:56.080 --> 04:43:02.720
accept yourself for who you are, a place where you're

1780
04:43:02.759 --> 04:43:13.200
not trying to please anybody else ever, A place where

1781
04:43:13.360 --> 04:43:22.720
you can actually not just love yourself, but in some

1782
04:43:22.919 --> 04:43:32.360
ways more importantly, you can like yourself appreciate who you are.

1783
04:43:41.200 --> 04:43:47.840
That sense of gratitude is in the air all around you.

1784
04:43:55.479 --> 04:44:04.159
That's also a place where you actually feel the healing

1785
04:44:04.720 --> 04:44:19.599
energy soaking into your body. Healing energy soaking into your body,

1786
04:44:24.560 --> 04:44:33.479
and that healing energy spreads through your veins, traveling to

1787
04:44:33.840 --> 04:44:45.840
each and every single part of your body, and you

1788
04:44:46.000 --> 04:44:52.959
start to realize that actually that healing energy it's not

1789
04:44:53.279 --> 04:45:00.680
just entered into your brain, it's become part of your brain,

1790
04:45:05.639 --> 04:45:12.279
and that spinal fluid is now mixed with healing energy,

1791
04:45:17.560 --> 04:45:23.799
not just allowing you to feel so much more relaxed

1792
04:45:25.880 --> 04:45:37.880
and healthy in this moment, but also you start to

1793
04:45:38.040 --> 04:45:47.400
realize that actually, what's happening now with that healing, relaxing

1794
04:45:48.520 --> 04:45:56.400
energy spreading through your body, it's actually changing your life.

1795
04:46:01.560 --> 04:46:06.680
It's actually changing the way you're going to feel not

1796
04:46:06.959 --> 04:46:14.319
just now, but tomorrow and the next day. As your

1797
04:46:14.479 --> 04:46:22.520
health improves, not just your physical health, but your mental health.

1798
04:46:26.479 --> 04:46:31.639
Things that used to bother you in the past, for

1799
04:46:31.840 --> 04:46:37.880
some reason, no longer have the effect that they're used

1800
04:46:37.880 --> 04:46:52.159
to because something has changed deep within you. Maybe things

1801
04:46:52.479 --> 04:47:01.439
that are used to cause you to feel anger no

1802
04:47:01.680 --> 04:47:11.680
longer have that power to control you the way they

1803
04:47:11.880 --> 04:47:20.639
seem to be able to before. As you realize that

1804
04:47:20.880 --> 04:47:33.599
you're the one who decides what affects you, you're the

1805
04:47:33.720 --> 04:47:44.400
one who decides to feel relaxed and calm when you

1806
04:47:44.720 --> 04:48:02.680
choose to enjoy noticing these natural developments of healing continuing

1807
04:48:03.080 --> 04:48:17.000
to grow and improve your life day by day, including

1808
04:48:17.119 --> 04:48:30.520
of course, your ability to relax so much easier and sleeping.

1809
04:48:35.119 --> 04:48:40.799
It is the most natural thing in the world to you,

1810
04:48:45.319 --> 04:48:52.479
because falling asleep is something that you've done so many

1811
04:48:52.680 --> 04:49:00.479
times in your life, and you know that you are born,

1812
04:49:02.000 --> 04:49:08.599
as we all were, with the ability to fall asleep naturally.

1813
04:49:12.799 --> 04:49:23.520
We were born with that ability to just drift off

1814
04:49:24.279 --> 04:49:37.400
into a deep, healing sleep. Even when we're kids, sometimes

1815
04:49:37.479 --> 04:49:41.919
will fall asleep when we don't even want to try

1816
04:49:42.000 --> 04:49:46.240
to take us stay awake. Maybe it's a birthday in

1817
04:49:46.279 --> 04:49:50.479
the morning, or it's Christmas or holiday or something we

1818
04:49:50.599 --> 04:49:53.040
look forward to we don't want to go to sleep,

1819
04:49:55.319 --> 04:50:00.560
but the more we want to stay awake more we

1820
04:50:00.840 --> 04:50:08.840
just start to drift. And the more you fight drifting,

1821
04:50:09.520 --> 04:50:12.360
the more you try to stop yourself and drift in asleep,

1822
04:50:14.520 --> 04:50:25.560
the deeper and stronger that drifting becomes. Because we're born

1823
04:50:26.560 --> 04:50:32.400
not just with the need to relax deeply and to

1824
04:50:32.560 --> 04:50:42.400
naturally fall asleep, but it's our birthright, it's part of

1825
04:50:42.520 --> 04:50:53.159
our DNA, and sometimes as we get older in life,

1826
04:50:54.520 --> 04:51:08.080
perhaps at times we have forgotten that relaxing completely. It's

1827
04:51:08.200 --> 04:51:21.279
not only a wonderfully pleasant experience, it's also really easy.

1828
04:51:32.639 --> 04:51:40.119
It's very very easy to let go, because that's all

1829
04:51:40.200 --> 04:51:54.560
it is. It's just deciding to let go. And when

1830
04:51:54.720 --> 04:52:02.520
you press the play button on my recordings, you have

1831
04:52:02.759 --> 04:52:13.319
given permission for my voice to relax you. When you

1832
04:52:13.439 --> 04:52:18.599
press that play button, you have given me permission for

1833
04:52:18.799 --> 04:52:32.840
my words to affect you in a positive, only a

1834
04:52:33.040 --> 04:52:54.360
positive way. Opening up your mind too useful and healing

1835
04:52:55.919 --> 04:53:11.959
suggestions that can have such an amazing effect on how

1836
04:53:12.119 --> 04:53:24.200
you feel right now, as well as those changes that

1837
04:53:24.520 --> 04:53:34.520
continue long after the recording ends, those changes within you

1838
04:53:37.400 --> 04:53:50.119
that continue to flourish and grow, transforming your life in

1839
04:53:50.680 --> 04:54:02.599
a positive, beautiful way, allowing you to move forward in

1840
04:54:02.759 --> 04:54:09.279
your life in the direction that you choose for yourself.

1841
04:54:18.360 --> 04:54:30.360
And this feeling, this feeling that you can experience a safety, comfort, calmness,

1842
04:54:38.159 --> 04:54:52.119
just feels so nice. It's such a healthy place to be,

1843
04:55:00.080 --> 04:55:13.799
and that positivity grows within you each and every day.

1844
04:55:16.880 --> 04:55:26.639
Moving forward, you're going to find that you're more relaxed

1845
04:55:29.000 --> 04:55:41.360
physically and in your mind is more relaxed. And it's

1846
04:55:41.439 --> 04:55:46.959
not that you're thinking slower, it's just that your mind

1847
04:55:47.040 --> 04:55:58.919
will be less clogged up with unnecessary negativity because from

1848
04:55:59.040 --> 04:56:09.319
now on, your mind rejects negativity. From now on, you're

1849
04:56:09.360 --> 04:56:20.200
going to start noticing when negativity arises and you can

1850
04:56:20.360 --> 04:56:34.319
just say stop, stop, and that negativity will turn around

1851
04:56:34.919 --> 04:56:54.279
and leave you alone. Stop and that negativity will disappear.

1852
04:57:02.439 --> 04:57:08.919
And as you notice that you feel way more relaxed

1853
04:57:10.360 --> 04:57:25.720
than you probably expected, you can now congratulate yourself because

1854
04:57:25.919 --> 04:57:32.279
you're the person that has done this. You are the

1855
04:57:32.439 --> 04:57:37.520
one that has opened your mind up to the simple

1856
04:57:37.720 --> 04:57:45.599
facts that you can feel more relaxed in your body

1857
04:57:46.319 --> 04:57:55.599
and in your mind. You've opened your mind up to

1858
04:57:57.959 --> 04:58:04.520
the birthright of being able to just fall asleep easily

1859
04:58:05.560 --> 04:58:19.560
when you choose, And that's a nice feeling. Don't you

1860
04:58:19.680 --> 04:58:31.240
think it feels nice? Doesn't it? To feel calm? All

1861
04:58:31.319 --> 04:58:35.919
that healing energy is spreading through your body and your

1862
04:58:36.040 --> 04:58:51.799
mind to spend time in a special place where negativity

1863
04:58:53.279 --> 04:59:06.200
can no longer enter. Negativity is banned, it's barred, it's

1864
04:59:06.279 --> 04:59:12.919
not allowed entry. Doesn't it doesn't. This doesn't deserve to

1865
04:59:13.040 --> 04:59:21.080
be here. It doesn't belong here. Negativity has no place

1866
04:59:22.119 --> 04:59:38.919
in your life, which makes room for more comfort, more heathing,

1867
04:59:41.080 --> 05:00:08.279
more relaxation, more peace. It feels nice, doesn't it? Just

1868
05:00:11.799 --> 05:00:32.080
the let go with everything. I'm gonna count down now

1869
05:00:32.360 --> 05:00:40.599
from twenty down to one. You can continue to relax.

1870
05:00:42.759 --> 05:00:54.279
If you choose, you can drift to sleep. With every

1871
05:00:54.520 --> 05:01:06.119
number you hear me say, you can fill twice as relaxed.

1872
05:01:09.159 --> 05:01:20.439
Or if you choose, you can fill twice sleepy now.

1873
05:01:25.840 --> 05:03:00.279
Twenty nineteen, eighteen, seventeen, sixteen, fifteen, fourteen, thirteen, twelve, eleven, ten, fine,

1874
05:03:08.159 --> 05:04:18.880
eight seven, six, five four. This is your time to

1875
05:04:19.119 --> 05:04:33.639
just take a break, your time to relax, to allow

1876
05:04:33.799 --> 05:04:51.000
your mind to slow down, to give yourself permission to

1877
05:04:51.200 --> 05:05:04.919
take a break from everything. And you're the only person

1878
05:05:05.720 --> 05:05:11.599
that can make that decision. You're the only person that

1879
05:05:11.720 --> 05:05:27.720
can actually tell your mind to just relax, to just

1880
05:05:31.439 --> 05:05:44.319
take some time off so that you can focus on

1881
05:05:44.439 --> 05:05:51.720
your body, getting in touch with how you feel physically,

1882
05:06:00.599 --> 05:06:07.000
and in the process of this body scan, where you

1883
05:06:07.799 --> 05:06:18.240
focus on different parts of your body, those parts that

1884
05:06:18.360 --> 05:06:26.639
you focus on and observe, even though you're not purposely

1885
05:06:27.840 --> 05:06:35.840
requesting for those parts of your body to relax, it's

1886
05:06:36.000 --> 05:06:42.240
kind of expected. You expect when you listen to my

1887
05:06:42.400 --> 05:06:55.319
voice to feel more relaxed naturally, because when you're listening

1888
05:06:55.439 --> 05:07:10.159
to me, your attention is focused on my words, and

1889
05:07:10.319 --> 05:07:21.639
as my words guide you to focus on those parts

1890
05:07:21.759 --> 05:07:40.080
of your body, your focus increases, which actually calms your mind.

1891
05:07:48.040 --> 05:08:07.200
And when your mind calms down, your body relaxes. And

1892
05:08:07.360 --> 05:08:30.040
when your body calms down, your mind relaxes. And even

1893
05:08:30.200 --> 05:08:37.240
though we've not really started the focus on your body,

1894
05:08:40.240 --> 05:08:51.279
you can already feel that healing energy spreading through your body,

1895
05:08:56.159 --> 05:09:10.479
pushing out stress and tension, healing all the parts of

1896
05:09:10.560 --> 05:09:20.319
your body, including your skin, your bones, your blood, all

1897
05:09:20.400 --> 05:09:24.959
of your organs inside your body, all of the muscles,

1898
05:09:26.319 --> 05:09:33.439
all of the fat, all of everything, every hair on

1899
05:09:33.599 --> 05:09:47.000
your body is filled with that healing energy, and when

1900
05:09:47.080 --> 05:10:03.360
your brain fills with that healing energy, the feeling of

1901
05:10:03.560 --> 05:10:27.720
comfort and relaxation increases deeply, increases in a way that

1902
05:10:31.200 --> 05:10:47.880
your mind starts to feel perhaps bit drowsy because it's

1903
05:10:48.040 --> 05:11:07.240
not needed, and it may start to drift if that's

1904
05:11:07.479 --> 05:11:15.639
what's needed. So if you're listening to this and what

1905
05:11:15.840 --> 05:11:22.000
you need is deep relaxation, that's what you'll get. If

1906
05:11:22.119 --> 05:11:29.439
what you need is to fall asleep naturally and easily

1907
05:11:30.400 --> 05:11:43.680
as your mind drifts, that's also what will happen. Because

1908
05:11:43.880 --> 05:11:51.720
by pressing that play button on the podcast and listening

1909
05:11:51.840 --> 05:11:58.319
to me, you give permission for your body and your mind.

1910
05:12:01.360 --> 05:12:10.360
In fact, you give the command to your body and

1911
05:12:10.479 --> 05:12:21.639
your mind to relax deeply and to drift off to

1912
05:12:21.840 --> 05:12:38.200
sleep if that's what you want or need. And as

1913
05:12:38.319 --> 05:12:48.479
I focus on the different parts of your body, you

1914
05:12:48.680 --> 05:12:57.560
may start to just drift. And then you come back

1915
05:12:57.639 --> 05:13:02.840
again and you hear me talking, and I'm focusing on

1916
05:13:02.959 --> 05:13:13.599
a different part of your body, and you may find

1917
05:13:13.759 --> 05:13:22.319
yourself drifting, but you don't realize you're drifting until you

1918
05:13:22.520 --> 05:13:30.880
stop drifting and you're alert again to my voice. Focusing

1919
05:13:32.040 --> 05:13:36.799
on a different part of your body starts to relax

1920
05:13:37.040 --> 05:13:49.479
even deeper, because that drifting is basically you already in

1921
05:13:49.639 --> 05:13:59.799
the sleep zone. And the more you drift, the longer

1922
05:14:00.080 --> 05:14:09.880
you drift, and the longer you drift, eventually that drifting

1923
05:14:10.080 --> 05:14:21.959
continues into sleep, and that's the last you remember until

1924
05:14:22.000 --> 05:14:31.000
you wake up in your own time, when you experience

1925
05:14:31.279 --> 05:14:38.639
the right amount of sleep for you. Because when you

1926
05:14:38.880 --> 05:14:48.000
do and if you do fall asleep, it's extremely pleasant,

1927
05:14:50.720 --> 05:15:12.040
so relaxing, so deep, healing leap. It feels so nice

1928
05:15:14.240 --> 05:15:23.319
to relax into your own body and mind as you

1929
05:15:23.880 --> 05:15:28.799
as you feel that heating energy is spreading through it,

1930
05:15:31.080 --> 05:15:52.959
relaxing us so deeply, relaxing, use so so deeply. As

1931
05:15:53.040 --> 05:16:09.400
we start to focus on your eyes, moving down to

1932
05:16:09.560 --> 05:16:52.279
your jaw, down to your neck, your shoulders, arms, hands, fingers,

1933
05:16:59.560 --> 05:17:23.959
it's chest, your stomach, your back, your spine.

1934
05:17:30.479 --> 05:17:48.840
Your hips, your legs, your.

1935
05:17:48.959 --> 05:18:27.599
Feet, your tastes and feelingeings spreading and growing inside your body,

1936
05:18:29.520 --> 05:18:41.119
feeling you up. Now let's focus again on parts of

1937
05:18:41.200 --> 05:18:55.599
your body, focusing this time on your forehead. Now on

1938
05:18:55.759 --> 05:19:04.919
your mouth, your lips, your tongue, the whole of your mouth.

1939
05:19:17.159 --> 05:19:28.520
Focus in on your fingers. Maybe you could move your

1940
05:19:28.599 --> 05:19:34.200
fingers a little bits. You can focus on each one individually,

1941
05:19:40.439 --> 05:19:47.599
both hands, and even though if you focus on both

1942
05:19:47.680 --> 05:19:53.119
of your hands now they almost seem to just melt

1943
05:19:53.240 --> 05:20:01.200
into one. Where there is your right hands start in

1944
05:20:01.319 --> 05:20:17.360
your left hand end, almost as if just mixed together. Now,

1945
05:20:17.560 --> 05:20:45.400
focusing on your knees, just noticing how your knees feel. Now,

1946
05:20:45.680 --> 05:20:52.880
focusing on your elbows, focusing on both of your elbows,

1947
05:20:59.159 --> 05:21:32.200
just absurd thing the feeling of your elbows. Now, focusing

1948
05:21:33.639 --> 05:21:49.159
and absurding the back of your neck, feeding that energy

1949
05:21:51.680 --> 05:22:38.360
on the back of your neck. Observing your ankles, being

1950
05:22:38.680 --> 05:23:50.080
aware of physical sensations in your ankles, not to sin, no,

1951
05:23:53.159 --> 05:24:08.599
your toes on both of your feet, being aware how

1952
05:24:10.880 --> 05:25:02.720
you taste feel right now, ninety sn how your entire

1953
05:25:04.080 --> 05:26:01.319
body fails. Noticing your mind feels now, letting go, ing go,

1954
05:26:09.439 --> 05:26:59.279
letting go everything, letting go, letting go, letting go, oh everything, everything.

1955
05:27:05.560 --> 05:27:09.240
I'm going to start now, And I would like you just,

1956
05:27:09.400 --> 05:27:15.040
first of all, just to see yourself lying down on

1957
05:27:15.159 --> 05:27:21.319
that message table, lying on your front. Your head is supported,

1958
05:27:21.720 --> 05:27:30.479
your arms are supported, and you feel comfortable and breathing.

1959
05:27:30.560 --> 05:27:40.040
It's really easy, and you feel you feel confident in

1960
05:27:40.200 --> 05:27:42.360
how you look as well, so there's none of that

1961
05:27:42.560 --> 05:27:49.319
issue of body problems or shyness because I'm a professional

1962
05:27:50.479 --> 05:27:56.880
and this is a therapy session, so none of that

1963
05:27:57.000 --> 05:28:07.240
stuff matters whatsoever. This is about you. This is about

1964
05:28:07.639 --> 05:28:15.759
how you feel and how you can enjoy that sense

1965
05:28:15.840 --> 05:28:21.880
of comfort and relaxation that comes from letting go and

1966
05:28:22.080 --> 05:28:30.200
allowing my hands and my fingers to relax you by

1967
05:28:30.240 --> 05:28:38.720
a message your body. So I want to start off

1968
05:28:38.959 --> 05:28:43.840
just by placing my hands on the back of your head,

1969
05:28:45.279 --> 05:28:50.639
just gently, just you can feel what my hands feel

1970
05:28:50.759 --> 05:28:57.479
like really on you. So you can maybe feel the

1971
05:28:57.560 --> 05:28:59.759
warmth of my hands on the back of your head.

1972
05:29:03.119 --> 05:29:05.319
And with my hands to the side of your head,

1973
05:29:06.319 --> 05:29:12.880
not pressing, but just holding there very gently, maybe over

1974
05:29:12.959 --> 05:29:16.639
your ears, and a little bit on your face, just

1975
05:29:16.720 --> 05:29:22.159
so you can feel my hands so you can become

1976
05:29:22.200 --> 05:29:35.240
accustomed to them. And now put my hands on the

1977
05:29:35.279 --> 05:29:40.000
back of your head again and gently let them slide

1978
05:29:40.080 --> 05:29:52.279
down onto the back of your neck. You can feel

1979
05:29:52.360 --> 05:30:02.360
my hands stroke in the back of your neck to

1980
05:30:02.479 --> 05:30:08.959
start with, just so you can get used to the

1981
05:30:10.599 --> 05:30:14.279
the feeling of my hands on your skin, get accustomed

1982
05:30:14.319 --> 05:30:22.520
to realize that you're safe and it's all good. It's

1983
05:30:22.560 --> 05:30:32.720
all fine, and I'm going to start gently messaging the

1984
05:30:32.919 --> 05:30:49.520
muscles in the back of your neck with both hands. Now,

1985
05:30:49.599 --> 05:30:55.880
this is a very trusting situation really, because our necks

1986
05:30:55.919 --> 05:31:00.319
are so fragile and to have someone have their heads

1987
05:31:00.919 --> 05:31:05.919
around your neck in that way can sometimes be problematic

1988
05:31:06.040 --> 05:31:11.599
for people, which is why massages are quite good, because

1989
05:31:11.639 --> 05:31:20.200
it allows you to relax and to get in touch

1990
05:31:20.439 --> 05:31:37.319
with trust, to feel peaceful and calm. And there's a

1991
05:31:37.439 --> 05:31:46.159
massage the sides of your neck gently moving from the

1992
05:31:46.240 --> 05:31:50.080
bottom of your neck. It would be sort of near

1993
05:31:50.080 --> 05:31:53.400
where your shoulders start, I guess, all the way up

1994
05:31:55.479 --> 05:32:00.919
to your jaw, your ears, kind of area that side

1995
05:32:00.959 --> 05:32:06.000
of your neck. Of course it's a lot longer than

1996
05:32:06.360 --> 05:32:22.000
the front of your neck. And then message in the

1997
05:32:22.159 --> 05:32:29.840
back of your neck, especially that area where perhaps we

1998
05:32:30.080 --> 05:32:38.080
hold tension. And as that area's message, you can actually

1999
05:32:38.279 --> 05:32:42.040
feel a sense of release in the back of your

2000
05:32:42.159 --> 05:32:50.200
neck and maybe you can breathe it out as well.

2001
05:32:52.799 --> 05:33:05.520
Notice how it feels. Notice how you feel. And then

2002
05:33:05.639 --> 05:33:09.759
moving down to that area between your neck and your shoulders,

2003
05:33:11.279 --> 05:33:20.200
that muscle area, starting to message that area on both sides.

2004
05:33:22.400 --> 05:33:24.599
I mean, this would be the area that a lot

2005
05:33:24.639 --> 05:33:26.799
of people would message if they were going to give

2006
05:33:26.840 --> 05:33:33.279
you like a shoulder message, even that's not technically the shoulders,

2007
05:33:33.840 --> 05:33:36.279
but it's all the muscles that lead to the shoulders

2008
05:33:38.119 --> 05:33:44.720
from the neck and again that can hold tension and stress.

2009
05:33:46.000 --> 05:33:50.959
And when massaged sometimes a nice deep message is useful

2010
05:33:54.040 --> 05:34:09.479
and you decide how deep that message is and just

2011
05:34:09.680 --> 05:34:16.599
allow my knuckles just to dig in to get to

2012
05:34:16.720 --> 05:34:26.720
those muscles and to really relaxed all the time being

2013
05:34:27.000 --> 05:34:44.520
firm yet gentle with you and just stroking down the

2014
05:34:44.720 --> 05:34:53.240
area to your actual shoulders, moving to the muscles of

2015
05:34:53.319 --> 05:35:04.439
your shoulders and maybe initially just pulling up the shoulders

2016
05:35:04.479 --> 05:35:07.799
a little bit off the table just to give you

2017
05:35:07.919 --> 05:35:18.319
a little bit of a stretch, but very gently. And

2018
05:35:18.400 --> 05:35:20.959
you've got the muscles at the front of your shoulders,

2019
05:35:21.720 --> 05:35:32.680
the sides and the back. Again, this is a part

2020
05:35:32.840 --> 05:35:38.240
that can really take quite a bit of pressure, quite

2021
05:35:38.240 --> 05:35:46.279
a bit of needing if if you wish to really

2022
05:35:48.159 --> 05:35:53.599
release the tension to really get into those muscles and

2023
05:35:57.080 --> 05:36:01.560
you can let your fingers in there feel really nice.

2024
05:36:03.520 --> 05:36:11.040
Sometimes just being stroked gently or being massaged quite strongly,

2025
05:36:14.759 --> 05:36:24.799
it can all be beneficial to the relaxation with the muscles.

2026
05:36:24.840 --> 05:36:44.400
In your shoulders. Now to move down your arms, we

2027
05:36:44.560 --> 05:36:48.560
do one arm at a time, starting with your right arm.

2028
05:36:55.119 --> 05:36:58.720
What I do is I just lift your arm up,

2029
05:36:59.639 --> 05:37:04.880
just hold it to the side of you. The words

2030
05:37:04.919 --> 05:37:11.319
still be attached, and I just message the tops of

2031
05:37:11.439 --> 05:37:27.639
your arms all the way down to your forearms into

2032
05:37:27.720 --> 05:37:51.639
your wrists, gently messaging that parts, the softer part, which

2033
05:37:51.759 --> 05:37:58.279
is the underpart of the arm, which leads to the

2034
05:37:58.400 --> 05:38:04.720
crease in your elbow. The inside it's much more sensitive skin.

2035
05:38:14.400 --> 05:38:21.200
Sometimes just having that stroked, can I feel really nice,

2036
05:38:23.919 --> 05:38:37.840
pleasurable and relaxing. Now moving down to your right hand,

2037
05:38:43.840 --> 05:38:55.919
just holding your hand in both of my hands, just

2038
05:38:56.119 --> 05:39:02.439
pressing gently on the back of your hand and stretching

2039
05:39:02.560 --> 05:39:13.279
your fingers ever so lightly, at the same time pressing

2040
05:39:13.439 --> 05:39:26.759
down and massaging each finger, and then starting to massage

2041
05:39:26.880 --> 05:39:37.439
the palms of the hand. Just turning the hand gently,

2042
05:39:39.240 --> 05:39:49.080
stretching it gently, and actually having your hand held can

2043
05:39:49.200 --> 05:39:56.000
really be an emotional experience sometimes even if it is

2044
05:39:56.200 --> 05:40:01.639
a stranger, so when you don't know very well, like

2045
05:40:01.799 --> 05:40:08.720
a massage person or a therapist, maybe because it's intimate

2046
05:40:16.279 --> 05:40:21.119
and you can feel nice and you can feel safe,

2047
05:40:28.919 --> 05:40:31.840
and as I put that right arm back down where

2048
05:40:31.880 --> 05:40:40.119
it was. We did the same with your left arm,

2049
05:40:43.479 --> 05:40:53.279
exactly the same. Massage in the muscles in your arm

2050
05:40:53.759 --> 05:41:01.799
all the way down. Do your wrist, stroking the inside

2051
05:41:01.959 --> 05:41:11.400
of your arm, just being gentle or as firm as

2052
05:41:11.520 --> 05:41:32.240
you require. And then massaging your left hand, stretching the fingers,

2053
05:41:34.360 --> 05:41:53.040
gently massaging the palm of your left hand. And you

2054
05:41:53.400 --> 05:42:21.639
feel so so relaxing, so comforting, and I just rest

2055
05:42:21.799 --> 05:42:34.200
your left down, back down. Start to massage your back,

2056
05:42:35.959 --> 05:42:43.959
the biggest part of your body, starting at the top,

2057
05:42:47.200 --> 05:42:51.159
starting again where we already have been, the area at

2058
05:42:51.159 --> 05:42:57.639
the top in between his shoulders, near your neck. Going

2059
05:42:57.759 --> 05:43:02.400
back a message in that area again, but this time

2060
05:43:02.799 --> 05:43:15.799
moving downwards, taking a downward stroke to the middle of

2061
05:43:15.880 --> 05:43:23.959
your back, working from the outside inwards. It's a massage

2062
05:43:24.040 --> 05:43:31.360
in the your back, but the the outsides of your back,

2063
05:43:35.520 --> 05:43:49.080
the parts where your arms would maybe rest against, almost

2064
05:43:51.240 --> 05:44:03.759
the part that connects your front to your back. Just

2065
05:44:04.000 --> 05:44:12.439
messaging down firmly but gently, as firm as you want,

2066
05:44:15.880 --> 05:44:19.919
moving down, and then moving across a little bed and

2067
05:44:20.040 --> 05:44:25.599
moving all the way down again being very gentle. You

2068
05:44:25.680 --> 05:44:36.799
have firm as you choose. Eventually we get to the spine.

2069
05:44:38.159 --> 05:44:41.880
We can massage the muscles and either side of your

2070
05:44:41.959 --> 05:44:45.840
spine from the top of your neck all the way

2071
05:44:46.000 --> 05:44:57.080
down to your lower back. We can do that a

2072
05:44:57.200 --> 05:45:08.479
few times. Sometimes people use the knuckle or the two

2073
05:45:08.639 --> 05:45:13.959
fingers and just go your side of the spine and

2074
05:45:14.040 --> 05:45:17.799
almost just push down, go all the way down to

2075
05:45:17.880 --> 05:45:25.840
the bottom of the spine, each time releasing tension and

2076
05:45:26.159 --> 05:45:35.159
opening up the body, stretching your body so that you

2077
05:45:35.400 --> 05:45:53.639
feel more relaxed but at the same time rejuvenated. And

2078
05:45:53.799 --> 05:45:57.119
now I'm going to move to one side, to your

2079
05:45:57.240 --> 05:46:06.279
right side, and from the bottom of your ribs to

2080
05:46:06.479 --> 05:46:12.400
your pelvis, I'm gonna message that area of your back.

2081
05:46:14.319 --> 05:46:17.639
I'll stretch over the other side and I'll pull the

2082
05:46:17.799 --> 05:46:24.599
muscles gently and massage and push from one end that

2083
05:46:24.840 --> 05:46:29.080
side or the way to my side to the middle

2084
05:46:29.200 --> 05:46:34.319
of fact to where your spine is. Massage in that

2085
05:46:34.639 --> 05:46:39.319
side of your spine the opposite side to where I'm standing.

2086
05:46:41.720 --> 05:46:47.680
It's almost like kneading bread. There's that big area which

2087
05:46:47.799 --> 05:46:59.560
is firm yet lots there to massage. Potentially one of

2088
05:46:59.599 --> 05:47:06.240
the most important places to actually have a message because

2089
05:47:06.319 --> 05:47:12.159
you really feel it. You really feel the release and

2090
05:47:12.279 --> 05:47:20.479
the pleasure of having your lower back massaged. It releases

2091
05:47:20.840 --> 05:47:29.119
so much from your body that's not useful, starting a

2092
05:47:29.279 --> 05:47:35.360
healing process which will continue long after this recording is over.

2093
05:47:44.720 --> 05:47:47.560
The message in this part of your body not only

2094
05:47:47.680 --> 05:47:52.439
feels really good for you, it's actually fun to do

2095
05:47:53.919 --> 05:47:59.560
because it is, as I said, like kneading bread, it's

2096
05:47:59.599 --> 05:48:03.479
a part that you can really get hold of and

2097
05:48:03.680 --> 05:48:17.319
really message deeply. If that's your choice, then I'm going

2098
05:48:17.360 --> 05:48:19.360
to move over to the other side of your body

2099
05:48:19.880 --> 05:48:28.560
and do the same with the opposite part of your

2100
05:48:28.639 --> 05:48:35.720
lawer back, kneading and messaging from your side all the

2101
05:48:35.799 --> 05:48:42.919
way to the middle of your back where your spine

2102
05:48:43.080 --> 05:48:56.799
is pressing and kneading firm and gentle at the same time.

2103
05:48:58.759 --> 05:49:11.279
It feels so releasing this mixture of pleasure, comfort, release, calmness,

2104
05:49:11.639 --> 05:49:23.279
relaxation or mixed together. Plus there's that feeling from your

2105
05:49:23.360 --> 05:49:28.520
stomach as it's being stretched. Even though you're in your

2106
05:49:28.599 --> 05:49:32.880
stomach now, you can feel it being stretched because that

2107
05:49:33.040 --> 05:49:44.439
whole area is connected to your stomach. Now we're going

2108
05:49:44.479 --> 05:49:49.400
to move or move further up to your top of

2109
05:49:49.479 --> 05:49:53.919
your body and I we do the same this time,

2110
05:49:55.240 --> 05:50:02.040
starting with your upper back. Put my hands forward over

2111
05:50:03.360 --> 05:50:09.520
and mass massage in that area up to your spine,

2112
05:50:10.720 --> 05:50:13.319
from the side of your body up to your spine.

2113
05:50:15.119 --> 05:50:21.279
So some of that massage area, the muscle tissue or

2114
05:50:21.319 --> 05:50:25.319
whatever fatty tissue even will be possibly from your chest

2115
05:50:27.159 --> 05:50:34.560
because all connected chest and the back connect together. I'm

2116
05:50:34.639 --> 05:50:37.840
going to be massaging and just pulling some of that

2117
05:50:38.080 --> 05:50:48.759
skin from your side up and massaging that area of

2118
05:50:48.880 --> 05:50:57.319
your upper back all the way to your spine. And

2119
05:50:57.439 --> 05:51:00.200
then I'll move down a bit and I'll continue with

2120
05:51:00.319 --> 05:51:03.159
the middle of your back doing exactly the same thing

2121
05:51:07.080 --> 05:51:21.080
as gentle, as deep as you choose. Now move or

2122
05:51:21.360 --> 05:51:25.599
the other side again and do the exact same thing

2123
05:51:26.279 --> 05:51:29.360
with the top of your back on the other side,

2124
05:51:30.439 --> 05:51:44.479
from pretty much underneath your arm area really to your spine,

2125
05:51:49.599 --> 05:51:51.200
and then continue.

2126
05:51:50.720 --> 05:51:50.959
In that.

2127
05:51:53.040 --> 05:51:57.840
All the way down, including your lower your middle of

2128
05:51:57.880 --> 05:52:16.439
your back. I'm gonna go to your thighs, the backs

2129
05:52:16.479 --> 05:52:26.080
of your thighs, and the sides of your thighs, starting

2130
05:52:26.159 --> 05:52:34.759
with your right leg. Massage in the back and the

2131
05:52:34.959 --> 05:52:43.560
sides of your thighs gently and firmly. There's a lot

2132
05:52:43.599 --> 05:52:47.080
of muscles there. It's an area that can be very

2133
05:52:47.240 --> 05:52:51.439
tense at times and maybe needs a little bit more

2134
05:52:51.520 --> 05:52:55.200
pressure than the rest of the body that's up to you.

2135
05:53:00.119 --> 05:53:06.000
You can gently stroke the back of your legs where

2136
05:53:07.000 --> 05:53:11.880
you know, opposite your knee joint or underneath your knee joint,

2137
05:53:13.040 --> 05:53:25.159
very sensitive, gentle area, and then working down to your

2138
05:53:25.959 --> 05:53:34.240
calf muscles. Massage in your calf muscles thoroughly and deeply,

2139
05:53:35.400 --> 05:53:47.240
if you choose, using both hands and fingers, digging deep

2140
05:53:55.639 --> 05:54:01.000
to your ankles. In the back of your back of

2141
05:54:01.080 --> 05:54:15.599
your ankles, just gently massage in that area, maybe lifting

2142
05:54:15.680 --> 05:54:29.840
the leg and stretching a little bit. Moving to the

2143
05:54:31.080 --> 05:54:48.759
right foot, massaging the bottom of your feet and the

2144
05:54:49.000 --> 05:55:00.919
size of your fate gently but firm enough they don't tickle,

2145
05:55:06.479 --> 05:55:11.919
and just allow the pleasure that you get from heaving

2146
05:55:12.040 --> 05:55:21.400
your feet massaged to just overtake you. As I continue

2147
05:55:21.520 --> 05:55:28.119
to message your feet, the bottoms of your feet, the sides,

2148
05:55:30.759 --> 05:55:36.439
your arches, your heel. You can put a lot of

2149
05:55:36.560 --> 05:55:42.400
pressure into your heel and it feels amazing, Yet the

2150
05:55:42.639 --> 05:55:50.680
arches need to be a bit more gentle. Stretching your

2151
05:55:50.840 --> 05:55:57.279
toes gently the message in the bottoms of your toes

2152
05:55:58.040 --> 05:56:13.319
with my fingers, each one individually. Moving her to the

2153
05:56:13.479 --> 05:56:22.880
left leg to do exactly the same thing. Starting at

2154
05:56:22.919 --> 05:56:27.360
the top of the thighs, work in the back of

2155
05:56:27.439 --> 05:56:35.000
the thighs and the sides, massaging deeply and gently the

2156
05:56:35.159 --> 05:56:49.200
whole area, working all the way down. And this is

2157
05:56:49.279 --> 05:56:55.400
an area that maybe you could like to spend more

2158
05:56:55.520 --> 05:57:04.159
time relaxing and massaging. So perhaps if you wanted like

2159
05:57:04.240 --> 05:57:09.520
a bigger future recording where spend more time on one

2160
05:57:09.639 --> 05:57:21.479
particular area. As you move down to your calf muscles,

2161
05:57:27.479 --> 05:57:40.840
massage in your calf muscles firmly and gently, moving down

2162
05:57:43.200 --> 05:57:49.560
your aincor into your feet, Massage in the backs of

2163
05:57:49.639 --> 05:57:59.959
your feet, the bottoms of your feet, stretching your toes

2164
05:58:00.439 --> 05:58:06.720
and message in each tone individually, and then feeling of

2165
05:58:06.919 --> 05:58:13.240
pleasure and release. The experience when your having your feet

2166
05:58:13.599 --> 05:58:34.400
messaged feels really good. Now, if you turn over in

2167
05:58:34.520 --> 05:58:45.360
your mind, laying on your back, I'm just going to

2168
05:58:45.400 --> 05:59:02.479
start again for your neck area, in your shoulders, just

2169
05:59:02.639 --> 05:59:13.119
to get back in touch with that area. And as

2170
05:59:13.200 --> 05:59:24.840
to move up, I can clean my hands, make them

2171
05:59:24.880 --> 05:59:30.520
more fresh, because now I'm gonna message your face gently,

2172
05:59:34.919 --> 05:59:45.000
starting off with your forehead. Your eyes are closed and

2173
05:59:46.119 --> 05:59:51.919
I can just stretch your eyes a little bit, pushing

2174
05:59:52.040 --> 06:00:08.919
up on your eyebrows, just massaging around your scalp, massaging

2175
06:00:09.159 --> 06:00:19.400
down your cheeks, around your ears, into your chaw, gently

2176
06:00:24.360 --> 06:00:41.400
the side of your neck, your chin mm hmm, and

2177
06:00:41.680 --> 06:00:49.080
just moving down from your neck down to your chest,

2178
06:00:52.840 --> 06:00:56.880
starting by message in the very top of your chest

2179
06:01:00.720 --> 06:01:05.959
where the collar bone is. Give a side of the collarbone,

2180
06:01:14.439 --> 06:01:17.639
and then just message in the hole of the chest,

2181
06:01:26.840 --> 06:01:38.880
moving the chest around. Because it's quite a large area,

2182
06:01:40.799 --> 06:01:48.240
you can move from one side to the next, moving

2183
06:01:48.639 --> 06:01:59.639
my hands underneath pretty much where your arms are, stretching up,

2184
06:02:01.799 --> 06:02:04.840
stretching some of the muscles of your back in the process,

2185
06:02:10.119 --> 06:02:18.799
moving up over your chest, and then moving down again,

2186
06:02:31.400 --> 06:02:36.200
and then allowing my hands to just massage gently and

2187
06:02:36.479 --> 06:02:43.200
slide down towards your stomach, starting in the middle of

2188
06:02:43.319 --> 06:02:52.919
your chest, and then gradually my hands moving apart and

2189
06:02:53.240 --> 06:02:58.840
massage in and slide in at the same time, moving

2190
06:02:59.000 --> 06:03:17.720
down to just below your rib cage, moving down, then

2191
06:03:17.880 --> 06:03:27.080
messaging up again, giving your chest all the attention that

2192
06:03:27.240 --> 06:03:41.680
it needs to feel completely relaxed, remembering that I'm also

2193
06:03:41.840 --> 06:03:47.080
going to be focusing on your sides as well, an

2194
06:03:47.200 --> 06:03:53.479
area that really doesn't get much attention but feels really

2195
06:03:53.599 --> 06:04:03.799
good when it's massaged. Just stroking my hands down the

2196
06:04:04.000 --> 06:04:10.959
sides of your body, just below your arms, all the

2197
06:04:11.000 --> 06:04:24.400
way down to your hips. Now move into your stomach area.

2198
06:04:26.439 --> 06:04:29.840
I'm going to stand one side of you like I

2199
06:04:29.919 --> 06:04:34.439
did when I did your lower back. I'm gonna do

2200
06:04:34.479 --> 06:04:40.560
a similar process of just stretching the muscles from your side,

2201
06:04:44.040 --> 06:04:56.119
gently massaging from one side to the next. Move in.

2202
06:04:58.680 --> 06:05:02.880
The whole area from below your ribs all the way

2203
06:05:02.959 --> 06:05:13.599
down to below your belly button, and then move.

2204
06:05:13.520 --> 06:05:16.520
Around to the other side of you and repeat that

2205
06:05:23.159 --> 06:05:36.279
process of relax and deeply, calmly. You feel loose, you

2206
06:05:36.439 --> 06:05:42.400
feel free. And it's something about having your stomach message

2207
06:05:43.639 --> 06:05:50.319
that's different from any other part because we do have

2208
06:05:50.520 --> 06:05:54.919
a tendency of holding a different kind of stress in

2209
06:05:55.040 --> 06:06:04.560
our stomachs that we may not be aware of. As

2210
06:06:04.599 --> 06:06:10.119
a now massage your stomach in front of your stomach,

2211
06:06:12.080 --> 06:06:23.040
making circles around your belly button, and then going the

2212
06:06:23.119 --> 06:06:32.959
other way around. There's a gentleness and a freedom that

2213
06:06:33.159 --> 06:06:44.520
comes from feeling how you're feeling. As I now move

2214
06:06:45.040 --> 06:06:52.119
down the tops of your thighs the muscles, massaging them,

2215
06:06:53.680 --> 06:06:57.080
and I can do this two legs at the same time,

2216
06:06:59.279 --> 06:07:08.639
pressing down massaging deeply those muscles in your thighs, at

2217
06:07:08.759 --> 06:07:17.439
front of your thighs, and moving down to your knees,

2218
06:07:18.400 --> 06:07:31.040
gently massaging your knees, sliding down your shins, putting pressure

2219
06:07:31.119 --> 06:07:38.880
on either side of your shin gently softly but firmly,

2220
06:07:43.040 --> 06:07:52.720
moving down to your ankles, stroking the tops of your feet,

2221
06:07:58.880 --> 06:08:04.279
and then with each foot in each hand, just gently

2222
06:08:04.520 --> 06:08:12.840
messaging the whole of the foot, the top, the bottom,

2223
06:08:13.639 --> 06:08:21.919
your heel, your ankle, your toes, messaging every part of

2224
06:08:22.040 --> 06:08:30.240
your feet. It feels so good just to let go

2225
06:08:31.720 --> 06:08:55.599
and enjoy the process. Enjoy feeling so deeply relaxed, so

2226
06:08:55.880 --> 06:09:03.360
much comfort and so many feelings come just from touching

2227
06:09:03.479 --> 06:09:19.919
your skin. And you can just lie there for as

2228
06:09:20.080 --> 06:09:29.880
long as you choose, enjoying the feeling of deep comfort

2229
06:09:32.919 --> 06:10:04.919
from being massaged by me. Enjoy feeling deeply raxed. And

2230
06:10:05.040 --> 06:10:11.360
all we're going to do is blow out some candles.

2231
06:10:13.880 --> 06:10:28.959
In your mind, there are going to be a hundred candles,

2232
06:10:36.080 --> 06:10:41.840
and you're going to blow each one out individually, one

2233
06:10:42.240 --> 06:10:49.639
by one, starting at one hundred. As I count down

2234
06:10:54.840 --> 06:11:01.680
all the way down to one, and each time I

2235
06:11:01.959 --> 06:11:11.040
say a number, you can imagine that candle in front

2236
06:11:11.119 --> 06:11:22.119
of you, and I'd like you to actually physically gently

2237
06:11:22.240 --> 06:11:37.959
blow that candle out, just so it's not big blows,

2238
06:11:38.360 --> 06:11:52.200
just a gentle, and that candle will extinguish. And then

2239
06:11:52.360 --> 06:11:59.759
I'll say the next number to move down, and you

2240
06:11:59.799 --> 06:12:12.400
can just blow that one out as well. And as

2241
06:12:12.479 --> 06:12:22.840
we move down the numbers, you'll find yourself feeding more

2242
06:12:23.080 --> 06:12:31.720
and more relaxed. If you need to sleep, you'll also

2243
06:12:31.919 --> 06:12:43.479
find yourself becoming incredibly tired and sleepy. In fact, you

2244
06:12:43.680 --> 06:12:53.880
may struggle to blow out all one hundred of these

2245
06:12:54.119 --> 06:13:19.000
candles as you feel more and more deeply relaxed, more

2246
06:13:19.319 --> 06:13:36.720
and more deeply tired, and the further you go down,

2247
06:13:39.360 --> 06:13:52.959
the more your mind starts to drift. You may find

2248
06:13:53.400 --> 06:14:07.799
that you stop listening to me after a while. And

2249
06:14:08.000 --> 06:14:12.159
even though there may be background sounds where you are,

2250
06:14:17.040 --> 06:14:28.240
you'll be aware of those sounds at the moment be

2251
06:14:28.599 --> 06:14:43.799
me start to just not even notice them at all

2252
06:14:46.599 --> 06:15:00.599
because they're unimportant. Where I am, I've got the sounds

2253
06:15:00.639 --> 06:15:07.439
of the birds, there's horrors, the pigeon who likes to

2254
06:15:07.560 --> 06:15:14.119
say hello sometimes, and there's the odd plane that goes by,

2255
06:15:17.159 --> 06:15:30.560
maybe traffic and trains in the distance, but none of

2256
06:15:30.639 --> 06:15:44.720
that scenes important whatsoever. More candles you blow out, the

2257
06:15:44.880 --> 06:16:01.680
less important anything is more candles you blow out, the

2258
06:16:01.919 --> 06:16:18.439
further seemed to move away from sounds and from general

2259
06:16:21.880 --> 06:16:33.119
date days. Stuff seems to just move away on its own.

2260
06:16:38.400 --> 06:16:59.520
You feel more calmer with every candle you blow out. Guy,

2261
06:16:59.759 --> 06:17:09.360
did you the next number? Do you hear me say?

2262
06:17:16.439 --> 06:17:28.680
And then you blow that candle out to So easy,

2263
06:17:33.560 --> 06:17:54.200
so simple. We're gonna start by introducing the first candle,

2264
06:17:57.680 --> 06:18:09.959
which is a hundred. The first candle is one hundred.

2265
06:18:14.880 --> 06:18:29.040
When you blow that candle out, you'll find immediately a

2266
06:18:29.680 --> 06:18:43.639
slight change in how you feel, as well as a

2267
06:18:43.799 --> 06:19:06.000
real sense of positivity growing within you, relaxation and sleepiness expanding.

2268
06:19:14.759 --> 06:19:44.000
Starting with one hundred, blow out that candle now, ninety

2269
06:19:44.400 --> 06:21:12.080
nine candle ninety eight can do ninety seven and ninety six.

2270
06:21:28.479 --> 06:21:40.400
Mm and uh.

2271
06:21:44.799 --> 06:23:13.759
Ninety five and ninety four candle ninety three and ninety

2272
06:23:14.000 --> 06:24:39.000
two and ninety one and ninety and eighty nine mm

2273
06:24:52.560 --> 06:28:03.040
and eighty eight and eighty endo, eighty eight five and

2274
06:28:19.000 --> 06:28:45.520
hand and eighty two.

2275
06:29:52.959 --> 06:32:03.799

2299
07:17:03.479 --> 07:17:10.240
about the past, thoughts about the future, and even things

2300
07:17:10.279 --> 07:17:14.439
you've been thinking about today. Just let it all go

2301
07:17:17.919 --> 07:17:25.560
because none of it is useful in this moment. This

2302
07:17:25.840 --> 07:17:45.720
is your opportunity to just focus on feeling relaxed, allowing

2303
07:17:45.799 --> 07:17:53.759
yourself to get in touch with that natural sense of

2304
07:17:54.000 --> 07:18:02.599
peace that we all have within us. It's available for everyone.

2305
07:18:03.759 --> 07:18:08.680
It just sometimes takes a little bit of effort to

2306
07:18:08.840 --> 07:18:14.880
set up the right time and place in order for

2307
07:18:15.000 --> 07:18:21.919
you to just let go. Because when you do decide

2308
07:18:24.319 --> 07:18:29.639
to let go and relax, that's what your body starts

2309
07:18:29.720 --> 07:18:39.959
to do because you've chosen, You've chosen to just allow

2310
07:18:40.119 --> 07:18:45.959
your body to unwind and your mind starts to slow down.

2311
07:18:49.279 --> 07:18:53.680
And it's a nice feeling. It's a nice feeling at

2312
07:18:53.720 --> 07:18:59.599
the beginning, just to know that you have chosen to

2313
07:18:59.720 --> 07:19:08.880
decide to relax deeply, and because you've made that decision,

2314
07:19:10.680 --> 07:19:17.720
your body will just follow suit because sometimes all the

2315
07:19:17.840 --> 07:19:22.599
muscles in your body need is just permission from you

2316
07:19:23.680 --> 07:19:32.119
to relax, because so often we're busy, we're going from

2317
07:19:32.240 --> 07:19:36.200
here to there, we're walking around, and we're doing stuff,

2318
07:19:38.520 --> 07:19:44.880
and the body doesn't have any time or space to

2319
07:19:45.040 --> 07:19:52.040
really relax deeply. So it kind of waits for you

2320
07:19:52.360 --> 07:20:01.479
to lead the way, waits for your permission. And when

2321
07:20:01.560 --> 07:20:08.119
you do give your permission, when you give the say

2322
07:20:08.240 --> 07:20:14.599
so we need, say okay, it's time for your body

2323
07:20:16.279 --> 07:20:25.200
to let go completely and relax totally, your body just follows.

2324
07:20:28.200 --> 07:20:33.639
It's like a breath of relief. Ah. Good, I can

2325
07:20:33.720 --> 07:20:40.759
now relax. That feeling at the end of a day,

2326
07:20:40.799 --> 07:20:44.520
of a very physical day that you may experience in

2327
07:20:44.639 --> 07:20:48.200
the past, where you get home and you just sit

2328
07:20:48.400 --> 07:20:52.279
down on a chair, maybe you kick your shoes off

2329
07:20:52.400 --> 07:20:58.200
and not Ah, feels so nice. Know that you don't

2330
07:20:58.880 --> 07:21:02.240
have to get up again for a little while at

2331
07:21:02.319 --> 07:21:06.040
least if you choose, you can just sit there for

2332
07:21:06.159 --> 07:21:18.880
maybe an hour to It feels blissful. And just by

2333
07:21:19.080 --> 07:21:24.159
sitting down like that, your body knows that it's time

2334
07:21:24.240 --> 07:21:29.560
to relax. Your body has been given permission from you

2335
07:21:31.799 --> 07:21:42.080
because it's a mindset. In your mind, you're prepared to

2336
07:21:42.279 --> 07:21:51.880
let go of everything and just completely allow all the

2337
07:21:52.159 --> 07:22:00.959
stress of your body to evaporate. Any tension can just

2338
07:22:01.319 --> 07:22:20.680
gradually vanish. It's almost like magic, really, because that sense

2339
07:22:20.959 --> 07:22:27.200
of relaxation in your body, it's a very natural state.

2340
07:22:29.080 --> 07:22:33.720
It's not something unusual. It may feel unusual when you

2341
07:22:33.840 --> 07:22:37.159
first start to relax, if you if you haven't really

2342
07:22:38.560 --> 07:22:42.439
spent a lot of time focusing and giving yourself this

2343
07:22:42.680 --> 07:22:47.680
space to let go completely and relax, they seem more

2344
07:22:47.840 --> 07:22:56.119
most alien, but it isn't. It's actually the most natural

2345
07:22:56.240 --> 07:23:04.840
thing in the world to let go complete, to relax totally,

2346
07:23:06.799 --> 07:23:13.520
the most natural thing in the world to allow yourself

2347
07:23:17.919 --> 07:23:25.279
to feel really calm in your mind. And it is

2348
07:23:25.560 --> 07:23:33.240
almost like a literal unwinding. It's like you press a

2349
07:23:33.360 --> 07:23:42.119
button and all the tension just releases, and it's like

2350
07:23:42.240 --> 07:23:46.200
a wheel, like a cog, like the inside of a clock,

2351
07:23:46.400 --> 07:23:50.240
just unwinding. And it's almost like you could see the

2352
07:23:51.240 --> 07:23:56.560
little wind up knob that's used just going the opposite

2353
07:23:56.639 --> 07:24:02.639
way that you choose to wind it up, and the

2354
07:24:02.880 --> 07:24:13.439
energy that fremetic stress for energy gradually winding down, losing

2355
07:24:13.599 --> 07:24:21.360
its power, losing its strength. As a sense of relaxation,

2356
07:24:21.759 --> 07:24:32.479
becomes stronger and deeper, and you may find a the

2357
07:24:32.720 --> 07:24:39.720
more relaxed you feel, that your mind starts to wonder,

2358
07:24:42.840 --> 07:24:48.680
maybe seem to stop listening to me for a while,

2359
07:24:48.840 --> 07:24:55.479
and your mind goes somewhere else, and then you realize

2360
07:24:55.520 --> 07:25:00.479
you're listening to me again, and I was just your

2361
07:25:00.639 --> 07:25:11.400
mind drifting to sleep, which is quite natural, because sometimes

2362
07:25:11.599 --> 07:25:18.240
when we're stressed and tense, we're not I mean, I

2363
07:25:18.319 --> 07:25:23.360
actually be aware of what we need, what we physically

2364
07:25:23.520 --> 07:25:32.639
your emotionally need in this moment. But when you allow

2365
07:25:33.880 --> 07:25:39.680
your body and mind to relax completely and you let

2366
07:25:39.840 --> 07:25:49.000
go of all thoughts, concerns, worries, ideas, all letting them go,

2367
07:25:50.080 --> 07:25:58.439
allow them to drop onto the floor. When you start

2368
07:25:58.599 --> 07:26:07.040
to get in touch with the feelings of such relaxation,

2369
07:26:10.840 --> 07:26:17.439
this feels so nice, to be in touch with the

2370
07:26:17.680 --> 07:26:26.759
calmness of the different body parts as they become looser

2371
07:26:28.520 --> 07:26:42.240
and looser. Even your breathing seems easier and more natural, effortless,

2372
07:26:45.520 --> 07:26:49.439
as that cool air enters through your mouth or nose

2373
07:26:50.680 --> 07:27:01.680
into your lungs, breathing in comforts and relaxation, and then

2374
07:27:01.840 --> 07:27:10.439
just breathing out any excess remain intentional stress from every

2375
07:27:11.080 --> 07:27:18.799
part of your body and mind. And as you start

2376
07:27:18.919 --> 07:27:25.000
to focus on your mind, maybe you notice that things

2377
07:27:27.400 --> 07:27:33.240
have come to a standstill or maybe just much much

2378
07:27:33.759 --> 07:27:42.840
lower than before, because your mind is not really needed

2379
07:27:44.360 --> 07:27:52.040
when listening to my voice, which allows your mind to

2380
07:27:52.240 --> 07:28:02.840
relax just as deeply as your body. That synchronicity between

2381
07:28:04.400 --> 07:28:13.639
the relaxation of your body and relaxation of your mind

2382
07:28:16.000 --> 07:28:25.959
let you know that feeling completely calm, loose, and relaxed

2383
07:28:28.400 --> 07:28:44.279
really is a great healing experience fear and has so

2384
07:28:44.680 --> 07:28:52.680
many positive benefits for your body, mind, and your life.

2385
07:28:55.319 --> 07:29:01.080
To be able to let go over everything and to

2386
07:29:01.319 --> 07:29:11.400
relax completely in all parts of your body and mind.

2387
07:29:13.759 --> 07:29:22.360
Even your bones as araxed, all your muscles are rexed,

2388
07:29:29.159 --> 07:29:43.520
even the skin that covers your body is relaxed. Every hair.

2389
07:29:46.479 --> 07:29:47.040
That you have.

2390
07:29:48.799 --> 07:30:06.919
Is also deeply relaxed, and your brain restarts the feel

2391
07:30:07.319 --> 07:30:19.840
the benefits of this healing relaxation. And then as you

2392
07:30:20.119 --> 07:30:26.639
focus on the inside of your scalp where your brain is,

2393
07:30:28.479 --> 07:30:36.279
you can start to realize and notice the benefits of

2394
07:30:36.439 --> 07:30:48.680
your brain relaxing deeply. And as your brain continues to relax,

2395
07:30:51.560 --> 07:30:58.360
it sends those messages to the rest of your body

2396
07:31:00.319 --> 07:31:16.880
and do mind to rely relax more deeply, relax iny

2397
07:31:18.919 --> 07:31:28.240
more completely, letting go of any.

2398
07:31:29.840 --> 07:31:32.080
Remaining thots.

2399
07:31:33.759 --> 07:31:40.639
Or consers, allow them just to drop onto the floor

2400
07:31:42.840 --> 07:31:51.279
because they're no longer necessary in this moment, in this

2401
07:31:51.599 --> 07:32:06.360
moment of deep relaxation and calmness, filling your brain with

2402
07:32:06.799 --> 07:32:29.439
deep concentrated heathing, calming, relaxing every part of your brain

2403
07:32:33.919 --> 07:32:53.880
feething so loose and comfortable, so relaxed and peaceful. Your

2404
07:32:54.040 --> 07:33:05.840
brain feels so light, that's so healthy in that sense

2405
07:33:06.000 --> 07:33:19.799
of deep deep comfort really does allow you to enjoy

2406
07:33:22.000 --> 07:33:31.599
those ever increase in sensations of comfort that are spreading

2407
07:33:33.119 --> 07:33:44.919
throughout your body, relaxing each and every muscle of your body,

2408
07:33:47.360 --> 07:34:03.319

2422
07:37:27.919 --> 07:37:39.840
letting go everything. I'm going to do a body scan,

2423
07:37:41.599 --> 07:37:48.000
focusing on firstly how you feel in your body, not

2424
07:37:48.159 --> 07:37:53.560
trying to change how you feel, not trying to relax,

2425
07:37:54.840 --> 07:38:00.560
not trying to move away from any discomfort or stress attention,

2426
07:38:01.959 --> 07:38:08.639
just accepting, observing and accepting how you feel in the

2427
07:38:08.720 --> 07:38:15.040
different parts of your body, just allowing yourself to be

2428
07:38:15.319 --> 07:38:22.799
exactly as you are, to notice, to get in touch

2429
07:38:27.400 --> 07:38:34.680
with how you actually feel in this moment. I'm going

2430
07:38:34.759 --> 07:38:45.759
to start off by focusing on your hands. Just be

2431
07:38:45.880 --> 07:38:53.880
aware of your hands. I'd like you to move your

2432
07:38:53.959 --> 07:38:58.919
hands around, just maybe move your fingers a little bit.

2433
07:39:01.360 --> 07:39:07.080
I've been and closing your hands very gently, just so

2434
07:39:07.520 --> 07:39:13.080
that you can get in touch with how your hands

2435
07:39:15.520 --> 07:39:35.840
and your fingers fell, very very slow movements. Focusing now

2436
07:39:36.720 --> 07:39:43.959
on your feet and if you can just do kind

2437
07:39:43.959 --> 07:39:48.680
of an equivalent with your feet is you've just done

2438
07:39:48.919 --> 07:39:56.840
with your hands, maybe turn in your ankles, moving your

2439
07:39:56.959 --> 07:40:08.520
feet around and your toes gently but only very gently.

2440
07:40:08.799 --> 07:40:20.720
And very slowly noticing how your feet fulfill in this moment.

2441
07:40:27.639 --> 07:40:33.799
Focusing now and your eyes. I like you to just

2442
07:40:35.439 --> 07:40:41.240
focus on your eyelids. Maybe you can open and close

2443
07:40:41.319 --> 07:40:45.520
your eyes a couple of times to really get in

2444
07:40:45.759 --> 07:40:49.840
touch with how you feel when you do close your eyes.

2445
07:40:51.959 --> 07:40:58.400
The muscle changes in your eyes when you do close them,

2446
07:41:01.240 --> 07:41:07.599
maybe raising your eyebrows. It stretches the tops of your eyes,

2447
07:41:10.840 --> 07:41:19.279
perhaps squinting your eyes, scrunching up your eyes, just so

2448
07:41:19.400 --> 07:41:29.200
you can hear again, touch with all aspects of how

2449
07:41:31.000 --> 07:41:48.040
your eyes feel right now. Now focusing on your thighs,

2450
07:41:50.439 --> 07:41:54.680
and it just starts you to gently tense your thighs,

2451
07:41:56.080 --> 07:42:05.880
just very very gently, just enough so you can become

2452
07:42:07.479 --> 07:42:18.520
more attuned to the physical sensation of your upper legs,

2453
07:42:20.759 --> 07:42:24.000
the front of your thighs, and the backs of your thighs.

2454
07:42:28.479 --> 07:42:47.880
Noticing and observing how your thighs feel. Right now, moving

2455
07:42:48.119 --> 07:42:56.560
your focus to the back of your neck, just noticing

2456
07:42:56.720 --> 07:43:02.360
the back of your neck. The muscle rus and of

2457
07:43:02.479 --> 07:43:06.840
course they lead to the side of your neck. They

2458
07:43:06.919 --> 07:43:12.240
also lead to the top of your back, which lead

2459
07:43:12.319 --> 07:43:17.840
to your shoulders. So as your focus on the back

2460
07:43:17.919 --> 07:43:24.560
of your neck, maybe you can move your head gently

2461
07:43:24.959 --> 07:43:32.159
upwards as if you're looking up, maybe moving your head

2462
07:43:32.319 --> 07:43:39.759
down as if you were looking down, perhaps moving your

2463
07:43:39.799 --> 07:43:49.799
head side to side, right to left, only very slowly

2464
07:43:51.639 --> 07:44:00.200
and very gently. I'm not trying to force anything. It

2465
07:44:00.319 --> 07:44:09.599
has to be very very gentle, just so you can

2466
07:44:11.319 --> 07:44:22.919
be more in touch with the feelings, with the sensations,

2467
07:44:23.119 --> 07:44:32.360
the physical sensations of how back of your neck feels.

2468
07:44:34.119 --> 07:44:49.479
Right now, as we now focus on the tops of

2469
07:44:49.599 --> 07:44:55.880
your arms, the parts where your biceps and your triceps

2470
07:44:55.919 --> 07:45:04.000
are between your elbow and your shoulders. Just focus on

2471
07:45:04.279 --> 07:45:11.439
those parts, the tops of your arms. You may like

2472
07:45:11.560 --> 07:45:21.080
to just tense them, but very very gently and slowly,

2473
07:45:23.639 --> 07:45:32.599
so you're not straining or putting any pressure whatsoever on

2474
07:45:32.759 --> 07:45:33.439
your arms.

2475
07:45:36.159 --> 07:45:38.560
It's just so that you can.

2476
07:45:41.080 --> 07:45:48.240
Gain more of a sense of how your upper arms

2477
07:45:49.840 --> 07:46:01.720
are feeling in this moment, and just noticing as you gently,

2478
07:46:03.880 --> 07:46:13.479
very gently and slowly tighten the muscles and then let go.

2479
07:46:17.759 --> 07:46:26.159
Notice how the tops of your arms feel right now.

2480
07:46:34.360 --> 07:46:45.159
As a now focus on your stomach, the area the

2481
07:46:45.279 --> 07:46:51.599
lower abdomen area below your belly button, moving all the

2482
07:46:51.680 --> 07:47:05.400
way down to your hips, just above your grind. Maybe

2483
07:47:05.599 --> 07:47:13.240
you're able to tense these muscles in the area, very

2484
07:47:15.479 --> 07:47:28.759
very gently and slowly, if that's a difficult thing to do,

2485
07:47:30.040 --> 07:47:38.240
and maybe you can just move your body, pushing your

2486
07:47:38.360 --> 07:47:43.200
stomach up, maybe moving a little bit to a side

2487
07:47:43.799 --> 07:47:51.959
using your hips, just so you can get more in

2488
07:47:52.360 --> 07:48:02.360
tune with how you're lower up to an area is

2489
07:48:03.520 --> 07:48:24.040
feeling in this moment. Just noticing the physical sensations or

2490
07:48:24.159 --> 07:48:43.400
your lower abdomen as you move your attention to your mouth,

2491
07:48:48.799 --> 07:48:56.959
notice in your lips and inside your mouth, the teeth,

2492
07:48:58.080 --> 07:49:14.200
your guns, your tongue, just noticing how your tongue in

2493
07:49:14.279 --> 07:49:24.000
your mouth feels. It may help by moving your tongue

2494
07:49:25.319 --> 07:49:32.279
around your mouth, moving it to your left, maybe pressing

2495
07:49:32.360 --> 07:49:39.080
it gently against the side of your mouth, and then

2496
07:49:39.520 --> 07:49:44.360
to the right, gently to the side of your mouth,

2497
07:49:47.479 --> 07:49:53.000
perhaps pressing up against the top of your mouth, and

2498
07:49:53.119 --> 07:50:01.959
then down gently against the bottom of your mouth. Ays

2499
07:50:02.959 --> 07:50:18.360
very slowly and very very gentle, so that you can

2500
07:50:22.119 --> 07:50:34.439
be aware of how you feel in your mouth area.

2501
07:50:45.720 --> 07:51:05.919
Now going to focus on your wrists, and I'm gonna

2502
07:51:06.000 --> 07:51:14.880
ask you to maybe just routine your rests by moving

2503
07:51:14.959 --> 07:51:25.360
your hands in a circular motion very gently and slowly,

2504
07:51:28.159 --> 07:51:46.240
just so that you can feel the sensations that you

2505
07:51:46.720 --> 07:52:02.040
are currently experiencing in your rests. Perhaps smooth in your

2506
07:52:02.279 --> 07:52:19.360
hands up and down again very very gently and slowly,

2507
07:52:28.360 --> 07:52:35.560
very gentzl and slow.

2508
07:52:49.040 --> 07:52:50.080
As we now.

2509
07:52:52.520 --> 07:53:07.080
Start to observe you'll lower back. The bad part is

2510
07:53:08.720 --> 07:53:24.880
just above your hips where your coxis are a whole

2511
07:53:25.159 --> 07:53:32.119
area which also really does include the sides of your body,

2512
07:53:33.880 --> 07:53:43.479
because those muscles are very much connected as those muscles

2513
07:53:44.400 --> 07:53:50.520
also move into your hip aia connecting to your buttocks

2514
07:53:53.639 --> 07:54:08.400
the sides of your hips, and if you're physically able

2515
07:54:08.599 --> 07:54:18.560
to do so, maybe you can very gently just nevebody

2516
07:54:21.200 --> 07:54:34.759
ever so slightly, very slowly, some side to side, just

2517
07:54:35.119 --> 07:54:51.560
enough e gauge how you feel in your lower back.

2518
07:54:59.119 --> 07:55:09.080
Perhaps see could even move your hips gently up and

2519
07:55:09.319 --> 07:55:28.319
down gently, slowly in order to be in touch with

2520
07:55:28.520 --> 07:55:52.200
the physical sensations of your law back. As we now

2521
07:55:52.439 --> 07:56:08.000
move your attention to your jaw, an area from your

2522
07:56:08.279 --> 07:56:13.880
chin all the way up to near where your ears are,

2523
07:56:16.959 --> 07:56:32.080
the hole of your jaw, you can, just if it's

2524
07:56:32.240 --> 07:56:42.119
okay to do, sid gently open your mouth, not wide,

2525
07:56:42.639 --> 07:56:53.599
no stretching, just very gently and slowly opening your mouth

2526
07:56:57.560 --> 07:57:16.040
thing closing your mouth very gently and slowly so you

2527
07:57:16.200 --> 07:57:33.000
can be in touch with how you jow feels now

2528
07:58:00.240 --> 07:58:15.639
to send now the chest area. And you don't need

2529
07:58:15.840 --> 07:58:23.560
to do anything to move your chest because it moves

2530
07:58:24.000 --> 07:58:35.919
every time you breathe, and it moves very gently and

2531
07:58:36.599 --> 07:58:54.159
slowly automatically with each breath you takee As you focus

2532
07:58:54.720 --> 07:59:40.880
on how your chest feels when you pray, move in

2533
07:59:41.119 --> 07:59:56.279
your focus to your forms, your elbows. Maybe you're able

2534
07:59:56.720 --> 08:00:10.680
to very gently and slowly tense the muscles in your forearms,

2535
08:00:14.159 --> 08:00:20.840
and when you do that, you can feel your elbows

2536
08:00:21.080 --> 08:00:57.360
as well, very gently and slowly, gently and softly. I'm

2537
08:00:57.680 --> 08:01:35.599
sad your forearms and del boys. Now focus of the

2538
08:01:35.759 --> 08:01:47.639
rest of your back, your upper back in the middle,

2539
08:01:49.200 --> 08:02:09.240
the middle of your back again, this part of your body. News.

2540
08:02:11.479 --> 08:02:21.159
Also every time you pray, you may not notice that

2541
08:02:23.360 --> 08:02:35.439
usually mas you observe your upper back in the middle

2542
08:02:35.560 --> 08:02:52.959
of your back, you can really feel that gentle and

2543
08:02:54.200 --> 08:03:45.080
slow mm hmmmut. Moving your focus into your area the

2544
08:03:45.279 --> 08:03:56.840
butt as the grain, those muscles and those bones in

2545
08:03:56.959 --> 08:04:37.520
your midsection. Just noticing how your hips feel. Right now

2546
08:04:45.040 --> 08:05:00.880
you can very very gently move your hips maybe east side,

2547
08:05:01.040 --> 08:05:54.080
decide hairy gently and harry gently, softly and slowly. Everything

2548
08:05:56.319 --> 08:06:10.840
starts to slow down, including the thoughts in your mind,

2549
08:06:12.560 --> 08:06:22.680
and your mind itself just starts to gradually. It doesn't

2550
08:06:22.759 --> 08:06:30.319
have to be instant, but just gradually starting to. It's

2551
08:06:30.360 --> 08:06:39.400
almost like time is storing chin It's a slower pace

2552
08:06:41.919 --> 08:06:47.080
to maybe what you're used to in your day to

2553
08:06:47.200 --> 08:07:13.880
day life. It's a slower movement of energy, very small

2554
08:07:14.200 --> 08:07:22.240
movements which make up the larger movements, which is always

2555
08:07:22.279 --> 08:07:29.959
the case. Now, when you move your hand, it might

2556
08:07:30.080 --> 08:07:33.959
seem like it's one movement, but it's lots of minute

2557
08:07:34.720 --> 08:07:45.799
different muscles moving in accordance with each other. And what

2558
08:07:46.119 --> 08:07:58.560
happens in this space that we're sharing is we move

2559
08:07:58.759 --> 08:08:19.400
from that big movement into those smaller movements. Starting to

2560
08:08:19.599 --> 08:08:30.680
focus on how your body feels, not just as a whole,

2561
08:08:32.040 --> 08:08:35.159
not just oh, i'm feel in this way. I'm feeling

2562
08:08:36.279 --> 08:08:42.200
stressed or tense, or I'm feeling relaxed and calm, I'm

2563
08:08:42.319 --> 08:08:49.319
feeling this way, I'm feeling that way. Starting to notice

2564
08:08:49.560 --> 08:09:01.759
that your body begins to present to you all feelings

2565
08:09:03.360 --> 08:09:20.599
around your body, small physical sensations in your legs, whether

2566
08:09:21.000 --> 08:09:33.799
pleasurable or not. Maybe resisting the temptation to label them

2567
08:09:36.720 --> 08:09:44.319
or to judge them. Those feelings just thinking them, thinking

2568
08:09:44.360 --> 08:09:57.520
about them is just being neutral, just feelings. Not being

2569
08:09:58.599 --> 08:10:08.360
particularly can sad, but just noticing what your body is

2570
08:10:08.479 --> 08:10:22.200
telling you, the feelings in your arms, instead of feeling

2571
08:10:22.360 --> 08:10:31.000
the whole of the arm. Maybe notice those individual feelings,

2572
08:10:32.479 --> 08:10:43.959
all those different muscles and the skin, the hairs of

2573
08:10:44.080 --> 08:11:00.759
your arms, all the internal parts of your arms, the veins, bones,

2574
08:11:03.639 --> 08:11:09.639
just being aware of maybe your elbow on your right

2575
08:11:09.880 --> 08:11:20.439
arm has a certain feeling. Maybe your left wrist also

2576
08:11:20.759 --> 08:11:30.040
has its own individual physical sensation.

2577
08:11:42.479 --> 08:11:49.200
What about your forearm on your right arm, your right forearm,

2578
08:11:56.560 --> 08:11:57.759
there may not be any.

2579
08:11:58.119 --> 08:12:05.360
Particular feeling that you could even give a name to,

2580
08:12:09.119 --> 08:12:13.479
may not feel like anything other than just a feeling.

2581
08:12:14.360 --> 08:12:26.439
You know, it's there. The feelings in your shoulders, perhaps

2582
08:12:26.520 --> 08:12:30.279
your shoulders when you think about them, kind of almost

2583
08:12:30.439 --> 08:12:37.159
like they're the same, you know, the same feeling, almost

2584
08:12:37.279 --> 08:12:40.080
like you both of your shoulders are just one thing.

2585
08:12:41.919 --> 08:12:53.000
Of course they're not. And when you focus on your

2586
08:12:53.080 --> 08:13:01.319
left shoulder and then on your right shoulder, maybe find

2587
08:13:01.479 --> 08:13:06.880
that you move the muscles a little bit, maybe tense

2588
08:13:06.959 --> 08:13:32.520
the muscles gently, noticing the difference in each shoulder. Your

2589
08:13:32.599 --> 08:13:48.479
lower back, the left side of your lower back and

2590
08:13:49.319 --> 08:14:00.639
the right side of your lower back of course, connection

2591
08:14:00.959 --> 08:14:13.200
to your buttocks and to your hips, and also moving

2592
08:14:13.439 --> 08:14:27.000
up into the middle of your back. And sometimes like

2593
08:14:27.200 --> 08:14:31.959
right now, actually, when I focus on their part, when

2594
08:14:32.000 --> 08:14:36.279
I focused on my buttocks and then I focused on

2595
08:14:37.959 --> 08:14:40.599
the middle of my back, I almost felt like the

2596
08:14:40.759 --> 08:14:45.319
muscles in my lower back were being stretched very gently,

2597
08:14:50.080 --> 08:14:55.360
just stretched a little bit. Even though I wasn't doing

2598
08:14:55.479 --> 08:15:04.240
anything to try to stretch your lower back, it just

2599
08:15:04.319 --> 08:15:16.639
seemed to happen. The feeling of very gently stretching your

2600
08:15:16.720 --> 08:15:35.799
lower back comes along. I have feeling in your chest,

2601
08:15:43.400 --> 08:15:56.799
just noticing what sensations you are experiencing in your chest

2602
08:15:57.080 --> 08:16:13.360
right now. And there's so much of the chest. Obviously,

2603
08:16:13.400 --> 08:16:17.040
there's the collar bone leading to the chest. You've got

2604
08:16:17.080 --> 08:16:25.680
the chest bone, You've got the muscles in your chest.

2605
08:16:28.479 --> 08:16:34.560
Of course, if you're female, there's possibly the breasts. If

2606
08:16:34.599 --> 08:16:42.759
you're male, you've got the different well why not that

2607
08:16:42.880 --> 08:16:50.360
different these days, But there may be more muscles at

2608
08:16:50.400 --> 08:16:56.599
the top of the chest, but at the side underneath

2609
08:16:57.799 --> 08:17:01.000
it's pretty much the same. You're a man or a woman,

2610
08:17:01.880 --> 08:17:07.639
there's muscles there, muscles that stretch out to your back

2611
08:17:08.840 --> 08:17:12.400
as well as breast tissue. It stretches and moves into

2612
08:17:12.479 --> 08:17:28.720
your back to just being aware of your chest, being

2613
08:17:35.880 --> 08:17:55.840
with whatever feeling there is in your chest. When I

2614
08:17:56.040 --> 08:18:03.759
noticed that, I focus on my chest, I feel it

2615
08:18:04.000 --> 08:18:08.439
in my back and my upper back. I mean, I

2616
08:18:08.520 --> 08:18:11.520
guess the obvious reason would be because you know, I'll

2617
08:18:11.599 --> 08:18:22.520
breathe in in. Then it stretches my chest and my

2618
08:18:22.639 --> 08:18:36.319
back at the same time. It feels it feels okay,

2619
08:18:42.919 --> 08:18:47.759
it doesn't feel I got a little bit of pain

2620
08:18:47.880 --> 08:18:54.479
in my right chest, a little bit, not pain, but

2621
08:18:54.639 --> 08:19:04.959
little discomfort, maybe stiffness, possibly that name. I noticed my

2622
08:19:05.560 --> 08:19:14.799
shoulders are also wanting to flex for some reason. I

2623
08:19:14.880 --> 08:19:22.799
think that's probably part of my upper back, that connection

2624
08:19:23.040 --> 08:19:27.439
between my shoulders and my upper back, because I can

2625
08:19:27.520 --> 08:19:32.319
move my shoulders and stretch the muscles in my back,

2626
08:19:34.840 --> 08:19:41.360
moving the shoulders backwards or up, which then moves. I

2627
08:19:41.439 --> 08:19:57.560
think it's the scapulous in your back. It feels quite nice. Actually,

2628
08:20:02.880 --> 08:20:06.080
if you think about this is you can if you

2629
08:20:06.200 --> 08:20:20.159
want to, you can just flex or stimulate the various

2630
08:20:20.360 --> 08:20:27.840
muscles in your body gently in order to get more

2631
08:20:27.880 --> 08:20:38.200
of a sense of how they feel and when you're relaxing.

2632
08:20:43.000 --> 08:20:47.040
When you do tense and muscle and you let it

2633
08:20:47.200 --> 08:20:54.560
go and you let it relax. It relaxes way more

2634
08:20:56.200 --> 08:21:06.240
than it would normally. That you have to feel that

2635
08:21:06.319 --> 08:21:10.159
you're able to do that. There's no point doing it

2636
08:21:10.400 --> 08:21:16.200
if there's an issue with the per part of your body.

2637
08:21:19.680 --> 08:21:26.240
You need to be gentle with yourself at all times

2638
08:21:28.880 --> 08:21:40.400
when relaxing deeply. It's important to be kind to yourself.

2639
08:21:47.959 --> 08:21:56.439
As you notice your mind. How much has your mind

2640
08:21:56.759 --> 08:22:24.000
slowed down as we started this recording. How come and

2641
08:22:24.279 --> 08:22:35.599
peaceful is your mind right now? We have nothing to

2642
08:22:35.680 --> 08:22:45.560
think about and just my voice to listen to. Because

2643
08:22:45.680 --> 08:22:56.639
you know the intention behind this recording, this relaxation. At

2644
08:22:56.680 --> 08:23:03.200
the very least, view to feel more relaxed at the

2645
08:23:03.360 --> 08:23:06.479
end of the recording than you did at the beginning.

2646
08:23:11.639 --> 08:23:23.479
At the very least, your mind to slow down as

2647
08:23:23.560 --> 08:23:37.880
your body continues to relax, because that's what you want

2648
08:23:39.599 --> 08:23:58.599
to happen. That's what you expect to happen for relaxation

2649
08:24:01.959 --> 08:24:17.400
to fill your body, maybe calm in your mind to

2650
08:24:17.560 --> 08:24:36.959
the point of boredom. When you start maybe to drift away,

2651
08:25:05.479 --> 08:25:15.159
it's almost as if you're moving further away from your

2652
08:25:15.279 --> 08:25:28.919
body in your mind, just leaving that there. Kind of

2653
08:25:29.000 --> 08:25:33.919
liking it an escape pod and the spaceship a movie,

2654
08:25:34.720 --> 08:25:37.000
a space movie. You know, when they get into that

2655
08:25:37.080 --> 08:25:43.840
little pod in it. Since the man far away from

2656
08:25:43.880 --> 08:26:52.799
the spaceship, safe to dream, continue to relax, drifting so slow,

2657
08:27:05.880 --> 08:28:00.840
empy so, so empy so, and focus seeing on the

2658
08:28:03.080 --> 08:28:18.759
feeding of those individual parts of your body that are

2659
08:28:18.840 --> 08:28:38.000
relaxing one by one. You may find that every now

2660
08:28:38.080 --> 08:28:49.080
and then you realize that you weren't listening to my

2661
08:28:49.279 --> 08:29:00.919
voice because your mind started to imagine something different, maybe

2662
08:29:03.439 --> 08:29:12.639
started to almost move into some kind of a dreamy state,

2663
08:29:17.520 --> 08:29:23.799
And then you become aware of my voice again. And

2664
08:29:23.959 --> 08:29:30.360
even though you may want to focus on my voice,

2665
08:29:31.040 --> 08:29:38.439
you may also wish to allow your mind to just

2666
08:29:38.840 --> 08:29:58.680
drift naturally into that space of comfort and safety as

2667
08:29:58.799 --> 08:30:16.240
you fear more, comfort spreading through your body like a

2668
08:30:16.479 --> 08:30:30.840
warm blanket covering you gently, keeping your body at just

2669
08:30:33.560 --> 08:30:51.040
the perfect temperature. And even if you can hear background sounds,

2670
08:30:56.599 --> 08:31:08.959
they just don't seem to matter anymore. There's that sense

2671
08:31:11.840 --> 08:31:28.639
peace spreads through your mind like a gentle breeze, Yes,

2672
08:31:28.840 --> 08:31:41.119
strong enough to blow away all negativity, strong.

2673
08:31:40.880 --> 08:31:41.319
Enough to.

2674
08:31:44.759 --> 08:31:54.880
Remove from your mind any anxiety or stress that was

2675
08:31:55.080 --> 08:32:10.159
there before, and blow away any other thoughts or feelings

2676
08:32:10.520 --> 08:32:35.959
that just don't fit with the sense relaxation, that is,

2677
08:32:36.240 --> 08:33:01.319
feeling your body end your mind un as you focus

2678
08:33:01.520 --> 08:33:08.159
on your mind and count down from ten down to one,

2679
08:33:09.560 --> 08:33:19.880
and with each number you hear, your mind will become

2680
08:33:25.959 --> 08:33:41.400
slightly more relaxed, just just slightly.

2681
08:33:44.040 --> 08:33:44.080
So.

2682
08:33:44.240 --> 08:33:51.319
From ten down to nine, just a slight movement. From

2683
08:33:51.479 --> 08:34:03.720
nine down to eight, just another small change in how

2684
08:34:03.880 --> 08:34:16.919
you feel. Eight down to seven. That feeling is a gap,

2685
08:34:17.799 --> 08:34:23.360
almost like a gap that starts to get wider, the

2686
08:34:23.520 --> 08:34:31.759
gap between those feelings that you used to have in

2687
08:34:31.880 --> 08:34:40.799
your mind compared to the feelings you have there growing now,

2688
08:34:42.560 --> 08:34:52.360
feelings of comfort and security and confidence, and the gap

2689
08:34:52.759 --> 08:34:58.919
becomes wider. Eight down to seven, seven down to six,

2690
08:35:02.560 --> 08:35:07.560
And when you get to five, the mind will start

2691
08:35:07.720 --> 08:35:20.639
to have a certain physical sensation, most like there's a

2692
08:35:20.959 --> 08:35:27.560
magnet outside of your head sucking the tension and the

2693
08:35:27.880 --> 08:35:35.560
stress and any remaining feelings that you don't want, sucking

2694
08:35:35.639 --> 08:35:44.720
them out through your skull. And in down to four

2695
08:35:46.680 --> 08:35:53.479
you can start to really experience that sense of not

2696
08:35:53.799 --> 08:36:03.959
just emptiness, but space, a place full of fresh air,

2697
08:36:08.840 --> 08:36:15.560
the place where you can stretch. It's almost as if

2698
08:36:15.639 --> 08:36:19.720
as you go down to four and three, your mind

2699
08:36:19.880 --> 08:36:31.799
is expanding with this sense of peace and tranquility growing

2700
08:36:34.639 --> 08:36:42.119
it moves down to When you get to one, your

2701
08:36:42.319 --> 08:36:54.520
mind just feels exactly how you want to feel, almost

2702
08:36:57.360 --> 08:37:09.720
a perfect feeling, maybe the sensation that.

2703
08:37:11.319 --> 08:37:12.799
You'd like to keep.

2704
08:37:15.759 --> 08:37:26.599
A place that's safe, where nothing can affect you at all,

2705
08:37:38.279 --> 08:37:43.040
and you can stay in that that space of comfort

2706
08:37:43.119 --> 08:37:52.840
and confidence, confident in your own ability to create this

2707
08:37:53.759 --> 08:37:59.759
space and this feeling of comfort within your own mind

2708
08:38:01.319 --> 08:38:03.919
just by counting from ten.

2709
08:38:05.479 --> 08:38:06.159
Down to one.

2710
08:38:10.720 --> 08:38:15.279
And this is something that you can do yourself when

2711
08:38:15.319 --> 08:38:22.599
you're on your own, the time when you can maybe

2712
08:38:22.799 --> 08:38:31.400
sit down, maybe just for a few minutes, close your eyes,

2713
08:38:35.240 --> 08:38:46.880
just count slowly from ten down to one and re

2714
08:38:47.159 --> 08:38:59.959
experience these feelings in your mind. And when you feel

2715
08:39:00.200 --> 08:39:09.639
that way in your mind, your body copies your mind,

2716
08:39:15.520 --> 08:39:21.400
and the feeling is spread through your spine and your

2717
08:39:21.560 --> 08:39:29.400
nervous system into every part of your body, travels through

2718
08:39:29.439 --> 08:39:43.639
your bloodstream, heathing and relaxing every particle of your existence.

2719
08:39:56.360 --> 08:39:59.919
Now we can we can practice this a few ti

2720
08:40:00.000 --> 08:40:07.799
times before the end of the recording, and then you

2721
08:40:07.919 --> 08:40:10.680
can practice.

2722
08:40:10.200 --> 08:40:10.959
On your own.

2723
08:40:12.880 --> 08:40:22.599
And each time you count for ten about one. The

2724
08:40:22.799 --> 08:40:37.360
feelings of comforts, calmness, deep deep relaxation becomes stronger, deeper

2725
08:40:44.080 --> 08:40:53.240
feeling your mind and your brain. With these positive chemicals,

2726
08:40:55.040 --> 08:41:05.159
the spread throughout your body, relaxing you so quickly, relaxing

2727
08:41:05.319 --> 08:41:16.959
your whole body and mind so very very easily, just

2728
08:41:17.319 --> 08:41:18.680
by counting.

2729
08:41:19.759 --> 08:41:20.599
From ten.

2730
08:41:23.240 --> 08:41:24.040
Down to one.

2731
08:41:29.200 --> 08:41:30.439
So we're going to do now.

2732
08:41:31.319 --> 08:41:35.240
I'm going to count from ten down to one. I'd

2733
08:41:35.439 --> 08:41:39.759
like you to repeat the number after me. So when

2734
08:41:39.799 --> 08:41:48.400
I say ten, you can just repeat to yourself ten.

2735
08:41:54.000 --> 08:42:03.319
Just notice, be aware of how you feel in your

2736
08:42:03.520 --> 08:42:13.000
mind and your body. Then when I say nine, you

2737
08:42:13.119 --> 08:42:28.560
can repeat to yourself nine a game, noticing the increase

2738
08:42:28.919 --> 08:42:37.119
in comfort and calmness in your mind and in your body,

2739
08:42:43.119 --> 08:42:52.560
the same when I say eight, when I say seven, six,

2740
08:42:55.080 --> 08:43:09.400
when I say five, four, when I say three, two,

2741
08:43:13.799 --> 08:43:19.959
and lastly want to say one, you can beat that number.

2742
08:43:27.439 --> 08:43:27.599
Now.

2743
08:43:27.720 --> 08:43:33.279
Of course, when you do this on your own without

2744
08:43:33.400 --> 08:43:38.400
listening to me, you can say the numbers or whatever

2745
08:43:40.040 --> 08:43:48.479
speed that you feel is necessary for you, so you

2746
08:43:48.599 --> 08:43:54.560
can adapt. So you feel you want to say the

2747
08:43:54.720 --> 08:44:02.240
numbers ten down to one faster than I do, then

2748
08:44:02.279 --> 08:44:05.159
you go ahead and do that. Or if you feel

2749
08:44:06.040 --> 08:44:09.080
when you do it yourself that you'd like to have

2750
08:44:09.720 --> 08:44:17.720
more more space between the numbers, maybe take a lot

2751
08:44:17.959 --> 08:44:25.520
longer to get from ten all the way down to one.

2752
08:44:29.720 --> 08:44:43.080
That's your choice also to do. So I'm going to count.

2753
08:44:42.840 --> 08:44:51.439
From ten down to one, and when I get to one.

2754
08:44:52.560 --> 08:44:58.520
That would be the end of this recording, unless, of course,

2755
08:44:58.560 --> 08:47:17.560
you're listening with music. The muser will continue two nine, eight, four,

2756
08:49:42.279 --> 08:51:03.319
twenty ninety eighteen, seventeen, sixteen, fifteen, fourteen, thirteen, twelve eleven, ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five, four,

2757
08:51:07.639 --> 08:51:35.919
three two one. Now open your eyes, noticing how you

2758
08:51:36.040 --> 08:51:44.400
physically feel having counted down from twenty to one, allowing

2759
08:51:45.200 --> 08:51:49.200
stress and tension to leave through your fingertips and your

2760
08:51:49.319 --> 08:51:55.520
tass and as you focus on your fingertips, maybe they

2761
08:51:55.639 --> 08:52:01.959
feel a little bit tingling, which is I suppose quite

2762
08:52:01.959 --> 08:52:06.720
an understanding considering the tension has been exiting your body

2763
08:52:06.880 --> 08:52:15.599
through your fingertips. So now I'm going to count from

2764
08:52:15.680 --> 08:52:22.680
twenty down to one again. This time you got to

2765
08:52:22.759 --> 08:52:29.040
feel relief of tension and stress in the anxiety that

2766
08:52:29.159 --> 08:52:41.599
you may have leaving through your stomach, just leaving through

2767
08:52:41.639 --> 08:52:47.599
your stomach, almost as if it's just releasing the whole

2768
08:52:47.680 --> 08:52:53.159
of your stomach and enable to just above your chest

2769
08:52:53.319 --> 08:52:57.200
or below your chest, rather so surrounding your belly by

2770
08:52:57.240 --> 08:53:02.599
an area the whole area. You can feel the tension

2771
08:53:03.400 --> 08:53:09.319
of your body where it's left, just releasing from the area,

2772
08:53:09.959 --> 08:53:12.200
and you may notice that your stomach.

2773
08:53:11.840 --> 08:53:13.479
Will become very relaxed.

2774
08:53:15.000 --> 08:54:41.799
As I countdown from twenty down to one now twenty nineteen, eighteen, seventeen, sixteen, fifteen, fourteen, thirty, twelve, eleven, ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five, four.

2775
08:54:45.759 --> 08:55:02.799
Three, two, and you can open your eyes again if you.

2776
08:55:02.919 --> 08:55:06.360
Choose, or you can just keep them closed because it

2777
08:55:06.439 --> 08:55:13.639
feels relaxing. Just notice how your stomach feels. I notice

2778
08:55:14.080 --> 08:55:17.599
as your focus, just do a little scan of your body.

2779
08:55:19.720 --> 08:55:26.919
Just notice how your body feels, focusing on your upper

2780
08:55:26.959 --> 08:55:37.240
body bag, chest, stomach, lags, arms, hands, feet, Just noticing,

2781
08:55:41.479 --> 08:55:46.159
and you know, you may start to more of a

2782
08:55:46.319 --> 08:55:51.240
sense of tiredness, which may be the reason you're listening

2783
08:55:51.319 --> 08:55:58.159
to this according because you would like to let go

2784
08:55:58.560 --> 08:56:09.720
completely of everything and dread of into a nice, natural, calm,

2785
08:56:10.080 --> 08:56:25.279
relaxing sleep. So now we're going to focus on your forehead,

2786
08:56:29.200 --> 08:56:31.959
and if you choose, you can incorporate your eyes in

2787
08:56:32.119 --> 08:56:39.000
this focus as well, your forehead and your eyes. It's

2788
08:56:39.080 --> 08:56:43.560
that whole area basically, almost as if you were wearing

2789
08:56:43.599 --> 08:56:45.000
a mask, you know, like a.

2790
08:56:46.959 --> 08:56:50.080
I don't know, a Batman mask or something, or.

2791
08:56:52.200 --> 08:56:55.119
I'm trying to zorrow or something, you know, the kind

2792
08:56:55.159 --> 08:56:58.319
of mask that covers your eyes but also covers quite

2793
08:56:58.319 --> 08:57:04.400
a lot of the forehead. We're focusing on that area

2794
08:57:04.880 --> 08:57:07.159
because that's the area that we're now going to release

2795
08:57:08.080 --> 08:57:13.639
tension and stress from your mind and your brain. From

2796
08:57:13.680 --> 08:57:17.720
your mind and any tension that you may have remain

2797
08:57:17.840 --> 08:57:23.360
in your face, in your neck and your jawl, your eyes,

2798
08:57:24.200 --> 08:57:29.959
your forehead, and all your scalp. So basically any tension

2799
08:57:30.639 --> 08:57:35.479
within your head area, including your mind and your brain,

2800
08:57:39.279 --> 08:57:43.319
and that's going to be released through your forehead and

2801
08:57:43.400 --> 08:57:51.240
your eyes. As I count down again from twenty down

2802
08:57:51.319 --> 08:59:10.319
to one now twenty nineteen, eighteen, seventeen, sixteen, fifteen, fourteen, thirteen, twelve, eleven, ten, nine, eight, seven, six,

2803
08:59:14.520 --> 08:59:25.080
five h three.

2804
08:59:30.479 --> 08:59:34.680
Yeah, what.

2805
08:59:43.119 --> 08:59:51.200
Madicine. And she scanned your face with jaw, your eyes,

2806
08:59:52.520 --> 09:00:01.560
the cheap pins, your ears, your forehead, your scalp, your neck,

2807
09:00:02.840 --> 09:00:05.360
the back of your neck, on the front of your neck,

2808
09:00:06.319 --> 09:00:11.520
the side of your neck, and the throat m h.

2809
09:00:14.919 --> 09:00:26.000
Noticing being aware of the comfort, increased feeling, that relaxation,

2810
09:00:28.159 --> 09:00:33.040
not just in your head and neck and mind, also

2811
09:00:33.520 --> 09:00:43.000
the rest of your body. Just notice how loose and

2812
09:00:43.319 --> 09:00:47.000
calm you feel, and how easily.

2813
09:00:48.720 --> 09:00:50.279
It is to just let go.

2814
09:00:53.080 --> 09:01:19.360
Completely, let go completely, how easily so to balance. I

2815
09:01:19.400 --> 09:01:27.080
want to focus on the top of your head, and

2816
09:01:27.240 --> 09:01:28.400
we're going to allow.

2817
09:01:29.759 --> 09:01:31.720
Every last.

2818
09:01:33.200 --> 09:01:38.159
Piece of tension or stress of mind, be.

2819
09:01:38.479 --> 09:01:44.119
Lingering or hiding in your body mind head.

2820
09:01:45.439 --> 09:01:51.040
To just be sucked down at the top of your head.

2821
09:01:53.439 --> 09:01:53.919
Released.

2822
09:01:58.080 --> 09:02:01.759
Yeah, what's down into the clouds.

2823
09:02:04.279 --> 09:02:09.240
Imagine a be cloud above your head and it's like

2824
09:02:09.360 --> 09:02:11.400
a whirlpool and this is.

2825
09:02:11.560 --> 09:02:16.680
Can suck that tension now at the top of your head.

2826
09:02:18.840 --> 09:02:22.520
And just take it away the good.

2827
09:02:25.520 --> 09:02:29.279
Your focus. Imagine an opening on the top of your

2828
09:02:29.400 --> 09:02:35.919
head with that tension and stress and in remaining issues

2829
09:02:36.119 --> 09:02:39.000
may be ways of concerns that have no.

2830
09:02:39.360 --> 09:02:43.279
Use to you. Now you can all be sucked down

2831
09:02:43.319 --> 09:02:49.400
at the top of your head. I've taken away. As

2832
09:02:49.439 --> 09:02:53.680
I count down again from twenty down to one.

2833
09:02:57.040 --> 09:03:55.240
Now twenty nineteen, eighteen, seventeen, sixty fifty fourteeneen.

2834
09:03:52.720 --> 09:04:35.680
T twelve even ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five.

2835
09:04:41.040 --> 09:05:21.159
Four three one breathe, noticing how you feel, how relaxed

2836
09:05:21.560 --> 09:05:34.520
and calm you physically and mentally feel right now, how

2837
09:05:35.479 --> 09:05:44.400
peace so your mind feels. It feels so nice to

2838
09:05:44.639 --> 09:05:53.240
just let go, to give yourself some space to breathe easily,

2839
09:05:55.200 --> 09:06:05.200
to think calmly, just to take a break from all

2840
09:06:05.279 --> 09:06:11.919
that pointless worry concerns about things that you don't need

2841
09:06:12.080 --> 09:06:22.480
to think about right now, because this is your time

2842
09:06:22.800 --> 09:06:29.199
to let go. This is your space to enjoy feeling

2843
09:06:30.559 --> 09:06:38.000
deeply relaxed, peaceful in your mind, relaxed in your body.

2844
09:06:41.199 --> 09:06:50.080
I can feel so good, so nice to just not

2845
09:06:50.400 --> 09:06:59.440
have to do anything, to be able to really enjoy

2846
09:07:01.199 --> 09:07:09.959
that serenity that comes of letting go completely, that peacefulness

2847
09:07:10.160 --> 09:07:11.199
that comes with.

2848
09:07:17.879 --> 09:07:19.279
Being in this.

2849
09:07:21.080 --> 09:07:31.120
Peaceful space. And you can keep this sense of calmness

2850
09:07:32.000 --> 09:07:43.120
for as long as you choose. If you choose to

2851
09:07:43.360 --> 09:07:50.599
drift on into a deep, healing, natural sleep, then you

2852
09:07:50.680 --> 09:08:02.199
can do that. That's completely up to you, and you

2853
09:08:02.319 --> 09:08:07.319
can keep this feeling of calmness physically, mean in your mind,

2854
09:08:08.559 --> 09:08:23.440
as long as you choose to feel completely relaxed, completely relaxed.

2855
09:08:26.760 --> 09:08:32.559
I'd like you to make up your mind that you're

2856
09:08:32.559 --> 09:08:43.839
going to relax, and want to explore that with you

2857
09:08:44.480 --> 09:08:51.400
what it feels like when you actually decide that you're

2858
09:08:51.440 --> 09:09:00.239
going to relax, not forcing yourself, but giving yourself that. Yes,

2859
09:09:00.319 --> 09:09:02.599
it is a command, really, isn't it. When you're telling

2860
09:09:02.680 --> 09:09:12.160
yourself relax in a gentle but firm way, that only

2861
09:09:12.480 --> 09:09:16.599
you can really tell yourself in that way.

2862
09:09:17.480 --> 09:09:19.120
You can't really have someone else saying to you.

2863
09:09:19.319 --> 09:09:25.400
Now it relax, relax, you know, and it needs to

2864
09:09:25.440 --> 09:09:28.720
be gentle, but you can't someone else can't really have

2865
09:09:29.080 --> 09:09:37.959
the same the same kind of influence or power that

2866
09:09:38.239 --> 09:09:45.839
you have over your own physicality, over how you feel,

2867
09:09:51.760 --> 09:09:56.639
because when you say it to yourself, it means more.

2868
09:09:57.760 --> 09:10:04.239
It's personal, and your brain and your unconscious mind and

2869
09:10:04.360 --> 09:10:10.919
your body listens to what you say. So, for example,

2870
09:10:11.519 --> 09:10:12.360
we'll test it out.

2871
09:10:12.959 --> 09:10:13.800
We'll do a little.

2872
09:10:13.680 --> 09:10:17.480
Test, a few little tests along the way, and you

2873
09:10:17.599 --> 09:10:23.400
can get more of an idea of the force, a

2874
09:10:23.559 --> 09:10:30.559
positive force that you can have in creating a sense

2875
09:10:30.680 --> 09:10:34.559
of comfort and relaxation in your body and your mind

2876
09:10:35.760 --> 09:10:48.319
quite quickly just by you telling yourself to relax. So

2877
09:10:48.680 --> 09:10:51.879
I'm going to start by let's focus on your hands.

2878
09:10:55.559 --> 09:10:57.720
To focus on your hands and just tell your hands

2879
09:10:58.120 --> 09:11:04.639
to relax. Say relax. As you focus on your hands,

2880
09:11:06.919 --> 09:11:11.480
you could say my hands are relaxed, or I want

2881
09:11:11.519 --> 09:11:15.839
my hands to relax. I think if you actually do

2882
09:11:15.919 --> 09:11:23.160
it directly by focusing and imagining that your hands.

2883
09:11:23.800 --> 09:11:26.839
Can hear what you're saying. You know, they've got little ears.

2884
09:11:27.599 --> 09:11:28.519
You see a little weird.

2885
09:11:31.120 --> 09:11:42.000
So talking to your hands and just say relax, noticin.

2886
09:11:48.120 --> 09:12:03.199
Now your hands start to relax. Now focus on your

2887
09:12:03.319 --> 09:12:07.440
eyes and tell your eyes to relax. You're just saying

2888
09:12:07.480 --> 09:12:14.599
the same word relax. And find the right tone for you.

2889
09:12:17.120 --> 09:12:21.559
You know, I might say relax, but you you might

2890
09:12:21.680 --> 09:12:29.000
say relax or relax. You know, you might say it

2891
09:12:29.120 --> 09:12:36.760
differently to yourself, and that's important for you to gauge

2892
09:12:37.040 --> 09:12:42.360
what feels right for you. To just tell your eyes

2893
09:12:43.599 --> 09:12:47.800
to relax, whilst focusing on your eyes, your eyelids, the

2894
09:12:47.919 --> 09:12:53.400
muscles around your eyes, your eyebrows, and just tell your

2895
09:12:53.599 --> 09:13:00.440
eyes directly relax out.

2896
09:13:26.919 --> 09:13:27.040
Now.

2897
09:13:27.040 --> 09:13:37.440
I just did that myself. And sometimes you may feel

2898
09:13:37.519 --> 09:13:37.760
that you.

2899
09:13:37.919 --> 09:13:39.519
Need a bit more time.

2900
09:13:41.559 --> 09:13:44.800
Or the different parts to relax, you know, because I

2901
09:13:44.919 --> 09:13:49.839
start talking again and maybe that part hasn't relaxed fully.

2902
09:13:50.800 --> 09:13:53.839
But what will happen is that will just continue to relax.

2903
09:13:53.559 --> 09:13:54.519
Even though I'm talking.

2904
09:13:56.160 --> 09:14:01.919
And that's happening with my eyes. Something else I noticed

2905
09:14:02.080 --> 09:14:06.720
is when I started focused on my eyes, that actually

2906
09:14:07.480 --> 09:14:10.319
almost became they got worse before they got better in

2907
09:14:10.400 --> 09:14:14.239
a way, sort I felt a degree of tension growing

2908
09:14:14.319 --> 09:14:20.000
in my eyes and then disappearing. So I think what

2909
09:14:20.199 --> 09:14:24.720
that was really is just me becoming more aware of

2910
09:14:25.080 --> 09:14:30.680
the tension that was already there. But I I wasn't

2911
09:14:30.760 --> 09:14:35.760
focused on it before, so I wasn't really acknowledging it

2912
09:14:36.319 --> 09:14:53.360
or really conscious to those feelings. Yeah, my eyes still

2913
09:14:53.480 --> 09:14:54.959
continuing to relax.

2914
09:14:55.199 --> 09:15:00.680
As well as my hands. Actually, my hands have.

2915
09:15:00.720 --> 09:15:06.480
Got a certain kind of energy, like you're not buzzing,

2916
09:15:06.680 --> 09:15:11.680
but I can kind of funeral degree of energy in

2917
09:15:11.760 --> 09:15:17.839
my hands. Maybe that's where the tension is being released.

2918
09:15:19.680 --> 09:15:29.519
Maybe that's causing that. The next part, I think we

2919
09:15:29.599 --> 09:15:30.360
should focus on.

2920
09:15:30.440 --> 09:15:31.239
The back of the neck.

2921
09:15:31.919 --> 09:15:37.120
That's a part which quite often, well for me, holds tension.

2922
09:15:37.160 --> 09:15:39.800
I don't know about it for yourself, but I think

2923
09:15:39.839 --> 09:15:44.760
it's quite a standard place where tension is sometimes held.

2924
09:15:46.360 --> 09:15:51.440
So and I'm doing exactly what you're doing as you

2925
09:15:51.599 --> 09:15:55.040
do it as well, So I'm telling my body parts

2926
09:15:55.279 --> 09:15:56.279
to relax as well.

2927
09:15:57.080 --> 09:15:58.919
So if you tell your neck at the back of

2928
09:15:59.000 --> 09:16:00.680
your neck, because on the.

2929
09:16:00.720 --> 09:16:02.319
Back of your neck, and just say.

2930
09:16:05.000 --> 09:16:09.519
Relax in your own words, in your own tone, in

2931
09:16:09.639 --> 09:16:12.400
your own voice. You can say out loud, or you

2932
09:16:12.480 --> 09:16:17.440
can just say it to yourself internally. But you're focusing

2933
09:16:17.839 --> 09:16:19.959
and you're saying it literally.

2934
09:16:19.959 --> 09:16:23.239
To the back of your neck, as if the back

2935
09:16:23.319 --> 09:16:30.040
of your neck can actually hear what you're seeing. So

2936
09:16:30.239 --> 09:16:33.680
do that now, Just say it, relax, so back of

2937
09:16:33.720 --> 09:16:36.080
your neck, and I'll do the same.

2938
09:17:14.919 --> 09:17:18.440
And what I noticed, and you may have had similar

2939
09:17:18.519 --> 09:17:23.000
thing is even though I was focusing on the back

2940
09:17:23.040 --> 09:17:33.959
of my neck, other parts started to I don't know,

2941
09:17:34.319 --> 09:17:37.040
showed themselves to me or maybe.

2942
09:17:37.000 --> 09:17:38.680
Because they want to be relaxed as well.

2943
09:17:38.800 --> 09:17:43.279
But I started noticing the feelings in my shoulders, at

2944
09:17:43.319 --> 09:17:49.080
tension in my shoulders and in my upper back. Whether

2945
09:17:49.199 --> 09:17:54.839
that was because my back of my neck was saying, well,

2946
09:17:54.839 --> 09:17:55.879
I'm pretty much okay.

2947
09:17:57.480 --> 09:18:06.519
It's the other parts that need attention, but my.

2948
09:18:06.599 --> 09:18:09.239
Lobe, my back of my neck is still relaxing.

2949
09:18:10.720 --> 09:18:11.919
But I just became more.

2950
09:18:11.760 --> 09:18:15.480
Aware of other parts that needed attention.

2951
09:18:17.720 --> 09:18:20.440
Now, this might happen and it's not.

2952
09:18:22.040 --> 09:18:23.879
It doesn't mean that it's going wrong.

2953
09:18:24.000 --> 09:18:25.760
It just means you're.

2954
09:18:25.680 --> 09:18:30.480
Being notified of more places that.

2955
09:18:30.639 --> 09:18:32.360
Also want to feel relaxed.

2956
09:18:35.599 --> 09:18:37.360
So I'm going to focus on.

2957
09:18:37.800 --> 09:18:43.360
My upper back so you can do the same, even if.

2958
09:18:43.279 --> 09:18:44.440
You don't have any.

2959
09:18:45.800 --> 09:18:51.279
Feelings of tension that obvious in your upper back. You

2960
09:18:51.440 --> 09:18:56.319
just focus on your back and the whole area and

2961
09:18:56.519 --> 09:19:01.080
the shoulder blades down to the middle of your back

2962
09:19:01.519 --> 09:19:05.599
and your spine. And with me, it's more the shoulder

2963
09:19:05.639 --> 09:19:06.839
places more.

2964
09:19:11.559 --> 09:19:16.959
Yeah, that's the parts that really sort of given me.

2965
09:19:18.680 --> 09:19:19.040
That, not.

2966
09:19:20.959 --> 09:19:23.199
That it needs to relax. In the sounds to ask

2967
09:19:23.319 --> 09:19:26.879
that part to relax, And you can do the same. Now,

2968
09:19:38.080 --> 09:19:39.360
relax out the back.

2969
09:19:51.800 --> 09:19:53.440
Something strange happened there.

2970
09:19:53.959 --> 09:19:57.599
And this often happens, and I'm doing this for.

2971
09:19:59.239 --> 09:20:05.480
H for sixteen years or something, and often I'm one

2972
09:20:05.639 --> 09:20:12.480
surprised but amazed. Really bad, there can be a feeling.

2973
09:20:13.919 --> 09:20:16.760
So when I was focusing on the back of my neck,

2974
09:20:17.599 --> 09:20:21.760
my upper back was starting to feel quite stressed and

2975
09:20:22.519 --> 09:20:28.040
in need of attention. As soon as I started talking

2976
09:20:28.239 --> 09:20:33.080
to you about my upper back and talking about, you know,

2977
09:20:33.599 --> 09:20:38.599
getting ready to ask the upper back to relax, why

2978
09:20:38.680 --> 09:20:44.319
the back already started to relax. It's almost as if

2979
09:20:44.400 --> 09:20:50.000
it doesn't need to hear the words, just needs attention,

2980
09:20:54.800 --> 09:21:06.120
just needs to be noticed. And that is something that

2981
09:21:06.440 --> 09:21:13.400
often happens in this type of situation is when you

2982
09:21:13.639 --> 09:21:16.239
start to relax.

2983
09:21:17.319 --> 09:21:20.800
A couple of parts of your body, as we've done with.

2984
09:21:20.879 --> 09:21:25.319
Our hands, the eyes and the eyelids.

2985
09:21:26.480 --> 09:21:33.639
And now back of the neck, talk of the bag.

2986
09:21:35.360 --> 09:21:35.919
Of the back.

2987
09:21:37.239 --> 09:21:41.239
The rest of the body seems to just take notice

2988
09:21:44.000 --> 09:21:50.239
and decide in its own way to start relaxing.

2989
09:21:52.080 --> 09:21:53.720
Other parts of your body.

2990
09:21:54.120 --> 09:22:03.559
Start to just become looser. I suppose it's kind of

2991
09:22:03.680 --> 09:22:07.360
like a bit of an avalanche. You know, the little

2992
09:22:07.440 --> 09:22:10.760
ball starts rolling, and before you know it, the whole

2993
09:22:10.839 --> 09:22:11.800
of your body.

2994
09:22:11.639 --> 09:22:13.639
Is completely relaxed and roll.

2995
09:22:22.800 --> 09:22:30.400
And if you focus on your face, you focus on

2996
09:22:30.480 --> 09:22:39.120
your eyes, the eyelids, your eyebrows, and the muscles around

2997
09:22:39.199 --> 09:22:39.680
your eyes.

2998
09:22:44.680 --> 09:22:46.279
Maybe you start to notice that.

2999
09:22:48.000 --> 09:22:50.440
Your forehead is more relaxed.

3000
09:22:50.000 --> 09:22:57.279
Than it was. Maybe your face is more relaxed. I

3001
09:22:57.319 --> 09:23:01.559
would say, my entire face is a lot more relaxed

3002
09:23:01.639 --> 09:23:02.160
than was.

3003
09:23:13.440 --> 09:23:18.879
So you're going to focus now on your shoulders. It

3004
09:23:19.040 --> 09:23:24.559
came just like before. Just tell your shoulders you can't

3005
09:23:24.639 --> 09:23:24.919
do them.

3006
09:23:24.959 --> 09:23:26.599
In the bit you be you can do the right

3007
09:23:26.720 --> 09:23:30.839
shoulder and that shoulder. I just didn't do both at

3008
09:23:30.879 --> 09:23:31.559
the same time.

3009
09:23:33.639 --> 09:23:36.879
Just tell your shoulders as you focus on them in

3010
09:23:36.959 --> 09:23:41.720
your mind, focus on them you feel maybe.

3011
09:23:42.760 --> 09:23:45.400
You can see them in your mind's eye.

3012
09:23:49.000 --> 09:23:55.080
Just tell your shoulders to relax.

3013
09:24:32.199 --> 09:24:33.680
As nice as they relax.

3014
09:24:44.160 --> 09:24:53.080
I did you notice, especially my bank is the connection

3015
09:24:53.400 --> 09:24:59.080
between the different parts the bag, the shoulders, the neck.

3016
09:25:04.440 --> 09:25:08.879
Being more connected and being such a large part of

3017
09:25:08.959 --> 09:25:13.519
your body, it's almost hard.

3018
09:25:13.440 --> 09:25:21.720
To separate them from each other. And my luwer back

3019
09:25:21.760 --> 09:25:22.400
has started to.

3020
09:25:22.480 --> 09:25:33.720
Relax on the same Maybe I'm going too slow and

3021
09:25:33.839 --> 09:25:37.199
that could be an issue because we will go a

3022
09:25:37.279 --> 09:25:38.400
different speeds.

3023
09:25:40.639 --> 09:25:44.720
And the idea of the beginning of this recording was

3024
09:25:44.800 --> 09:25:47.319
for you to be able to just say to yourself,

3025
09:25:50.879 --> 09:26:03.599
relax with that focusing on any particular part of the body.

3026
09:26:05.879 --> 09:26:12.199
Because when you know that, telling your hands to relax,

3027
09:26:16.239 --> 09:26:25.360
your hands relax, You tell your eyelids, your eyes, your

3028
09:26:25.440 --> 09:26:35.599
muscles around your eyes, and your eyebrows to relax, and

3029
09:26:35.760 --> 09:26:36.440
they relax.

3030
09:26:42.199 --> 09:26:53.360
You tell the back of your neck to relax, and

3031
09:26:53.879 --> 09:27:19.080
it relaxes until you're out batters.

3032
09:27:21.160 --> 09:27:32.120
And different. As the tell your shoulders.

3033
09:27:44.639 --> 09:28:00.319
The h.

3034
09:28:09.080 --> 09:28:13.120
And you told your hands to relax. They relaxed and

3035
09:28:13.279 --> 09:28:14.919
they continued.

3036
09:28:16.000 --> 09:28:16.639
To relax.

3037
09:28:22.440 --> 09:28:28.080
When you told your eyelids, the muscles around your eyes,

3038
09:28:29.120 --> 09:28:34.040
your eyebrows to relax, they relaxed.

3039
09:28:37.599 --> 09:28:48.480
In fourteen to relax. When you told at the back

3040
09:28:48.599 --> 09:28:55.639
of your neck, on the back of your neck and

3041
09:28:55.919 --> 09:29:07.519
told you to relax, it relaxed and continued to relax.

3042
09:29:15.720 --> 09:29:24.800
And you told your mulca back to relax, it relaxed

3043
09:29:25.440 --> 09:29:38.959
and continued to relax. That's with your shoulders.

3044
09:29:41.360 --> 09:29:43.680
You told your shoulders to relax, and.

3045
09:29:46.879 --> 09:29:50.680
Shoulders relaxed and continued.

3046
09:29:55.239 --> 09:30:09.480
To relax. And it's not just that, it's but the

3047
09:30:09.599 --> 09:30:15.599
rest of your body is also been listening, and that

3048
09:30:15.839 --> 09:30:22.720
relaxation has been spreading. So from your eyes, the relaxation

3049
09:30:23.120 --> 09:30:30.040
spread to your forehead, around your face, into your skin,

3050
09:30:31.199 --> 09:30:43.440
into your jaw, into the front and side, and the

3051
09:30:43.599 --> 09:30:48.279
men on the way down, chest and stile.

3052
09:30:54.680 --> 09:30:57.720
And relaxed hands and shoulders.

your feet the side of the water.

3057

If you think.
