1
00:00:01.040 --> 00:00:18.280
Hello, and welcome to Vinnie and me. This is let

2
00:00:18.399 --> 00:00:22.120
me boy, you to sleep. Then he's just he was

3
00:00:22.160 --> 00:00:26.120
in bed, were both having a little lie down. I

4
00:00:26.199 --> 00:00:35.119
got up and came in here, and now Vinnie's got

5
00:00:35.200 --> 00:00:38.119
up and he's just pushed the door open and come

6
00:00:38.159 --> 00:00:44.159
in and staring at me. For some reason, we're staring

7
00:00:44.159 --> 00:00:46.119
at me for Vidy, for for Vidy.

8
00:00:47.679 --> 00:00:52.280
H Oh.

9
00:00:52.399 --> 00:00:55.799
I had a little nap. I've been tired all day

10
00:00:55.799 --> 00:01:01.960
because I got up at half past one this morning

11
00:01:02.320 --> 00:01:10.480
to watch the boxing, and that went on to about four,

12
00:01:10.920 --> 00:01:18.439
maybe half past four, and then maybe five in fact.

13
00:01:19.200 --> 00:01:28.719
Then I went back to bed and I haven't really

14
00:01:31.519 --> 00:01:34.200
I haven't really got my sleep back as it were.

15
00:01:36.680 --> 00:01:44.159
I haven't really. Yeah, it's been a bit, a little

16
00:01:44.159 --> 00:01:48.040
bit tired, but I'm better. Now, that's better. I'll stop.

17
00:01:48.280 --> 00:01:56.519
Ordered good, I'll stop in a minute. Don't worry what

18
00:01:56.640 --> 00:02:05.480
door yawns will completed at some point. So this is

19
00:02:05.560 --> 00:02:11.159
let me boy to sleep. Please only listen when you

20
00:02:11.319 --> 00:02:21.240
can safely close your eyes. And today is Sunday, the

21
00:02:21.280 --> 00:02:41.759
fifteenth of June to dands and a twenty five. I

22
00:02:41.800 --> 00:03:03.560
haven't really necessarily particularly accomplished much today. I'm just trying

23
00:03:03.560 --> 00:03:11.479
to think, what have I done? Holy Shower and did

24
00:03:11.479 --> 00:03:13.639
a bit of work on the website, a little bit

25
00:03:13.680 --> 00:03:19.719
of work on the podcasts, or I did a new thing.

26
00:03:20.199 --> 00:03:27.960
A new thing. I put together all of the last

27
00:03:28.000 --> 00:03:33.439
seven days. Let me boy, just leap podcast episodes into

28
00:03:33.599 --> 00:03:42.599
just one recording. So I've done that today. And the

29
00:03:42.800 --> 00:03:47.400
problem with that is I had to put Whisper Wednesday

30
00:03:47.599 --> 00:03:55.439
last because I couldn't really have the Whisper Wednesday and

31
00:03:55.479 --> 00:03:58.199
then going back to talking at a kind of normal volume.

32
00:03:58.840 --> 00:04:01.000
It's yeah, it's just and work. So I had to

33
00:04:01.680 --> 00:04:12.439
I put that at the end of the recording. So yeah,

34
00:04:12.479 --> 00:04:18.639
I'm thinking of maybe doing that again next week. So

35
00:04:18.839 --> 00:04:24.079
basically it's Sunday to Saturday, and I do it on

36
00:04:24.120 --> 00:04:30.360
a Sunday, so it's those seven days. Openny. Then he's

37
00:04:30.439 --> 00:04:41.519
hearing some summer in the garden and he's very interested. Wow,

38
00:04:41.680 --> 00:04:46.600
I'm such a yawny head. I remember I got a

39
00:04:47.519 --> 00:04:50.800
message years ago someone saying I don't like it when

40
00:04:50.839 --> 00:05:02.319
you yawn. Oh wow, Just I don't like it when

41
00:05:02.360 --> 00:05:12.360
you Well, nobody, and I do mean nobody on the

42
00:05:12.439 --> 00:05:19.879
planet can tell me off for yawning. I don't know

43
00:05:19.920 --> 00:05:24.000
if I yawn I yawn would you. I don't like him, York,

44
00:05:24.160 --> 00:05:28.519
Who cares. I don't care if you like it or not.

45
00:05:28.839 --> 00:05:32.560
I'm not yawning to make people feel wonderful or to

46
00:05:32.680 --> 00:05:38.000
make people feel anything. Just yawning because I'm yawning. There's

47
00:05:38.079 --> 00:05:45.279
no hello, oh yawd it because I'm tired. I'm yawning

48
00:05:45.360 --> 00:05:49.800
because I'm thinking about yawning. And I'm probably yawning because

49
00:05:49.839 --> 00:05:52.720
I'm trying not to yawn, which is CAUs is in

50
00:05:52.800 --> 00:06:02.040
me to yawn even more. Yes, mm hmmm, sniffy, sniff.

51
00:06:04.040 --> 00:06:06.079
I was wondering if I've got a little bit of

52
00:06:07.560 --> 00:06:09.759
I get a little bit of a hay fever these days,

53
00:06:10.720 --> 00:06:14.240
because I've had a few a few days, a few times,

54
00:06:14.399 --> 00:06:17.800
maybe not the whole day, but where I just seemed

55
00:06:17.839 --> 00:06:21.920
to come down with a cold. But then then it's gone,

56
00:06:22.959 --> 00:06:30.560
I'm sniffling, coughing, sneezing, and then me, you know nothing,

57
00:06:33.160 --> 00:06:37.439
So I don't maybe that maybe maybe I am a

58
00:06:37.519 --> 00:06:43.199
little bit affected by the pollen. Perhaps I did live

59
00:06:43.199 --> 00:06:46.279
in the countryside, so there's no getting away from it. Really,

60
00:06:47.480 --> 00:06:54.040
it's this is this non it's non stop pollen I

61
00:06:54.040 --> 00:07:04.839
imagine around here. But yeah, no, it's not. It's not debilitating,

62
00:07:04.959 --> 00:07:08.079
so I don't it's not going to bother me. It's weird.

63
00:07:08.079 --> 00:07:11.480
I just get a little bit a bit sniffily, tho,

64
00:07:11.680 --> 00:07:15.959
I'm not a sniff keep sniffing because that's grim. I

65
00:07:15.959 --> 00:07:21.079
remember when I was in the call center. I think

66
00:07:21.120 --> 00:07:25.439
it was the last call center I rugged in. I

67
00:07:25.480 --> 00:07:30.319
had this bloke on the phone and he was sniffingly.

68
00:07:30.319 --> 00:07:33.879
I think, I like full on cold. It almost sounds

69
00:07:33.959 --> 00:07:38.879
like the phone was up his nose. Seriously, I could

70
00:07:38.920 --> 00:07:42.040
put the end of the phone up his nose and

71
00:07:42.279 --> 00:07:46.040
all I could to hear, and it was just I

72
00:07:46.079 --> 00:07:51.839
did not enjoy that phone call. You can't shout through

73
00:07:51.879 --> 00:07:56.759
the phone. Can you please blow your nose before we continue?

74
00:07:57.480 --> 00:08:00.519
I mean you could include that in the ripped, but

75
00:08:00.639 --> 00:08:04.680
probably gets sacked. You know the script that you said

76
00:08:04.680 --> 00:08:15.920
at the beginning, all course that recorded. I remember when

77
00:08:15.920 --> 00:08:24.480
I did that first, because I worked at Churchill September

78
00:08:24.560 --> 00:08:34.919
two thousand and one. I think it was the the ninth.

79
00:08:37.440 --> 00:08:41.600
I'm not sure. I don't have my calendar, but anyway,

80
00:08:41.639 --> 00:08:49.679
it's the Monday and whatever the Monday was that week,

81
00:08:50.480 --> 00:08:58.240
and it was pretty easy. I didn't realize how easy

82
00:08:58.279 --> 00:09:04.080
it was until it started getting more difficult because we

83
00:09:04.279 --> 00:09:08.559
just asked the questions and that was it. And then

84
00:09:08.600 --> 00:09:13.480
about six months seven months in, they walked around and

85
00:09:13.600 --> 00:09:22.480
handed us a script and they said, you're going to

86
00:09:22.559 --> 00:09:25.960
have to read or team leader said, you have to

87
00:09:26.000 --> 00:09:33.679
read this out to the customer right at the beginning

88
00:09:33.960 --> 00:09:40.240
of the call, before proceeding with a car quotation. I

89
00:09:40.360 --> 00:09:43.279
have to read the whole thing out. It was just

90
00:09:43.360 --> 00:09:50.759
one page, but it was a good thirty seconds of talking,

91
00:09:54.240 --> 00:10:03.360
and it was laminated, I think. So membized twiddle with

92
00:10:03.440 --> 00:10:06.720
it and flick it around so it turned around in

93
00:10:06.840 --> 00:10:13.399
my hand. I thought it might impress some of the girls.

94
00:10:15.840 --> 00:10:19.120
Oh was I So? I was nine at the time,

95
00:10:19.159 --> 00:10:32.120
you see. I remember looking at and thinking when the

96
00:10:32.120 --> 00:10:35.279
teamader said, oh, you have to read this big long

97
00:10:35.399 --> 00:10:39.000
script out before and then it gave us another script.

98
00:10:39.480 --> 00:10:45.559
You have to read this out and before taking payment,

99
00:10:46.720 --> 00:10:50.320
and you also have to read this script out before,

100
00:10:50.799 --> 00:10:54.440
you know, before the end of the call. I was

101
00:10:54.519 --> 00:11:00.399
really talking about Willis, and my team leader took me

102
00:11:00.440 --> 00:11:03.639
aside and said, stop calling me Willis. He didn't know

103
00:11:03.679 --> 00:11:09.399
what a reference was from because he was about I

104
00:11:09.399 --> 00:11:13.240
think he was about eleven. My team leader I was

105
00:11:13.360 --> 00:11:16.799
what thirty one, so he was a little bit younger

106
00:11:16.799 --> 00:11:22.320
than me. What are you talking about, Willis? He didn't

107
00:11:22.360 --> 00:11:24.600
he didn't get the reference. A lot of people won't

108
00:11:24.600 --> 00:11:32.559
get the reference. And it doesn't matter because all it

109
00:11:32.600 --> 00:11:37.039
does is make me look really old. It's really old.

110
00:11:39.360 --> 00:11:46.519
He was referencing something from the late seventies. Wow, I

111
00:11:46.600 --> 00:11:51.080
put it fall. Different person sounds similar when I do it,

112
00:11:51.120 --> 00:11:56.679
but I put it fall. There's the other one. I

113
00:11:56.720 --> 00:12:01.120
can't but oh I love it where I love it

114
00:12:01.240 --> 00:12:14.879
when I'm playing films together. That was him smoking a cigar. Yeah,

115
00:12:15.399 --> 00:12:24.840
the eighteen that was such a huge show. It's weird.

116
00:12:24.879 --> 00:12:31.600
I mean, are there any big TV shows now on television?

117
00:12:31.679 --> 00:12:38.440
I don't mean popular, but are there any shows which

118
00:12:38.440 --> 00:12:47.559
are just called the imagination of the population of the

119
00:12:47.600 --> 00:12:58.120
Western world in a sense of action? Figures and books, comics,

120
00:13:01.399 --> 00:13:06.639
Easter eggs with pictures of it on? You know? The toy,

121
00:13:07.200 --> 00:13:10.759
the toy, the main toy for Christmas that year is

122
00:13:10.919 --> 00:13:16.879
this thing? I mean, I don't know. I suppose pepper Pig.

123
00:13:17.320 --> 00:13:21.639
That's one thing that was pretty huge on it. SpongeBob

124
00:13:21.919 --> 00:13:29.600
sponge Pants was a big character, wasn't he Simpsons? But

125
00:13:29.639 --> 00:13:34.480
we're going back like quite a few years. I remember

126
00:13:34.639 --> 00:13:41.639
the Simpsons, right, I remember watching it, and then after

127
00:13:41.720 --> 00:13:46.799
a few years of watching it, it became for some reason,

128
00:13:46.840 --> 00:13:51.000
it became really popular. It's almost like it was around

129
00:13:51.039 --> 00:13:58.480
for a while and then the newspapers noticed it and

130
00:13:58.519 --> 00:14:04.080
it was put on. You know, the newspapers thought it

131
00:14:04.200 --> 00:14:06.879
was for kids, and it's not a kids show at all,

132
00:14:08.440 --> 00:14:11.200
never was a kids show, and it's an adult show.

133
00:14:11.960 --> 00:14:15.840
It's adult humor. Yeah, it was put on in this

134
00:14:15.960 --> 00:14:24.759
country like six o'clock in the afternoon, and the press

135
00:14:24.759 --> 00:14:29.480
were all focusing on Bart Simpson and eat my shorts

136
00:14:29.559 --> 00:14:32.639
and all this stuff, and as it was plastered everywhere,

137
00:14:34.159 --> 00:14:38.279
when Bart Simpson is not the star of the show.

138
00:14:38.960 --> 00:14:43.799
His dad is. And it's just really strange the way

139
00:14:43.799 --> 00:14:50.320
they interpreted it. I mean, it's e's A's star, but

140
00:14:50.360 --> 00:14:59.279
he's not the star. Homer is. He is the king

141
00:14:59.360 --> 00:15:04.639
of that show, and Marge is the queen. But it's

142
00:15:04.679 --> 00:15:09.360
about It's about Homer Simpson, isn't it. Do you know

143
00:15:09.440 --> 00:15:16.039
anyone now that says, oh, oh, oh like that they

144
00:15:16.080 --> 00:15:17.840
still do that? Do you know when that still does that?

145
00:15:20.759 --> 00:15:22.720
I suld know people that did that, and they do it,

146
00:15:24.639 --> 00:15:32.879
and they did it for decades, and I didn't know why.

147
00:15:33.440 --> 00:15:36.440
I knew why. I knew it was, you know, because

148
00:15:37.240 --> 00:15:41.840
Homer Simpson goes, oh, don't I know do isn't it dope?

149
00:15:42.519 --> 00:15:51.480
Don't whatever? And but I didn't kind of understand why

150
00:15:51.639 --> 00:16:00.559
humans were doing it. Dont does anyone know anyone who

151
00:16:00.600 --> 00:16:04.759
does that? Because I've known people some of the other

152
00:16:04.840 --> 00:16:15.000
days said they said, lowell to me. Now, I really

153
00:16:15.080 --> 00:16:16.919
like this person, so I'm not going to say anything bad.

154
00:16:17.000 --> 00:16:20.519
I just the other another person said it to me

155
00:16:20.639 --> 00:16:23.480
years ago. I liked like that person as well, so

156
00:16:24.080 --> 00:16:28.960
but I just found it like what loll not. They

157
00:16:29.000 --> 00:16:36.200
didn't laugh, they just went loll. I was like, Okay,

158
00:16:37.200 --> 00:16:45.799
I can't keep up. I can't keep up. I tell

159
00:16:45.799 --> 00:16:54.120
you what's needed, squeakies in the garden. I'll tell you

160
00:16:54.159 --> 00:17:06.519
what's needed. Is I think the old people, the old ones,

161
00:17:06.720 --> 00:17:12.200
the old ones, need to start doing their own language,

162
00:17:12.839 --> 00:17:25.440
put together their own sayings, their own little coded chat. Yeah,

163
00:17:26.079 --> 00:17:33.400
just to confuse the the youngins. Oh, we just can

164
00:17:33.480 --> 00:17:36.240
continue to confuse the young uns by talking how we've

165
00:17:36.240 --> 00:17:43.359
always talked. It's is sometimes it feels like a different language,

166
00:17:44.480 --> 00:17:51.240
a different language. I'm sounding ancient, and I like a

167
00:17:51.559 --> 00:17:57.000
like a dusty old It's got to say dummy, but

168
00:18:00.519 --> 00:18:09.920
not dummy, not model dummy. Is it a dummy, the

169
00:18:10.000 --> 00:18:15.720
dummy the other thing wrapped up in in bandages. Mummy,

170
00:18:15.799 --> 00:18:23.880
not dummy, mummy, it's mummy, you dummy, mummy? What would

171
00:18:23.920 --> 00:18:27.200
you call it? Mummy? Oh, by the way, happy Father's

172
00:18:27.279 --> 00:18:32.640
Day if you if you celebrate such a thing in

173
00:18:32.759 --> 00:18:40.519
the In UK, England, Britain, we have Mother's Day and

174
00:18:40.640 --> 00:18:45.839
Father's Day, but some other countries also celebrate it, having

175
00:18:45.839 --> 00:18:51.039
on a different date. So Mother's Day was ages ago

176
00:18:51.759 --> 00:18:59.400
and Father's Day in the UK is today. So yeah,

177
00:18:59.519 --> 00:19:12.640
happy fat as, happy fart as Day, wherever you may bee. Yeah.

178
00:19:12.920 --> 00:19:18.200
I never received a fart as Day card. Never. Never

179
00:19:18.519 --> 00:19:23.039
I've been a farther if. I father, father, sorry, father,

180
00:19:27.640 --> 00:19:35.039
I wonder what that's like to actually be a parent.

181
00:19:38.519 --> 00:19:44.240
I guess I'm never gonna know him. I but just imagine.

182
00:19:45.359 --> 00:19:47.039
I know a lot of people listen to this are

183
00:19:47.160 --> 00:19:50.039
parents and they know exactly what it's like. But I

184
00:19:50.160 --> 00:19:57.319
don't really don't. I can't. I can't really get my

185
00:19:57.359 --> 00:20:06.160
head around it. It's a little bit like what's it

186
00:20:06.279 --> 00:20:09.640
like to be a goldfish. I don't know goldfish. No,

187
00:20:11.000 --> 00:20:20.400
but I don't know what's it like to be six

188
00:20:20.440 --> 00:20:24.079
foot seven. I'm never going to know what it feels

189
00:20:24.119 --> 00:20:26.960
like to be six foot seven. I mean, even if

190
00:20:26.960 --> 00:20:30.880
I wore stilts to make myself a that height, you know,

191
00:20:31.240 --> 00:20:35.119
there's limits to what I can do. I can't like

192
00:20:35.119 --> 00:20:42.640
to spend my whole life with those stilts on supermarkets,

193
00:20:42.640 --> 00:20:47.519
for example, that they have an issue with stilts. I've

194
00:20:47.559 --> 00:20:52.400
never understood that they try and go into Sainsbury's Otescos

195
00:20:52.440 --> 00:20:57.640
in this country, which is a grocery supermarket. Oh, can

196
00:20:57.640 --> 00:21:01.880
you please take the stilts, officer, But they don't stop anyone.

197
00:21:02.000 --> 00:21:06.279
It's actually naturally six foot seven. They don't check them

198
00:21:06.319 --> 00:21:11.559
for stilts. Check me. That's the thing, right, If you're

199
00:21:11.559 --> 00:21:15.960
gonna wear stilts, don't wear shorts. That's the problem. You

200
00:21:16.200 --> 00:21:20.640
need to get extra long trousers so it looks and

201
00:21:20.680 --> 00:21:23.400
you need to sort of get some kind of so

202
00:21:23.440 --> 00:21:26.599
it looks like you've got feet to the stilts on,

203
00:21:26.880 --> 00:21:30.880
because otherwise it don't work. It was just like wooden pegs,

204
00:21:32.359 --> 00:21:36.960
because I'm sure you can get stilts to armwood, but

205
00:21:37.039 --> 00:21:44.960
I'm sticking to the old fashioned stilts. I used to

206
00:21:44.960 --> 00:21:47.440
have stilts when I was a kid. We used to

207
00:21:47.440 --> 00:21:52.079
make stilts. It used to be fun. I don't think

208
00:21:52.240 --> 00:21:57.160
i've ever been on a professional stilt. Is this such

209
00:21:57.200 --> 00:22:02.640
a thing as a professional stilt and a pogo stick?

210
00:22:02.960 --> 00:22:05.400
Wouldn't that be quite a good way to actually travel.

211
00:22:06.319 --> 00:22:11.079
It'd be a much faster way, wouldn't it, and potentially

212
00:22:11.160 --> 00:22:16.359
more fun. You're like a really good pogo stick, one

213
00:22:16.400 --> 00:22:23.440
that I'm not saying one that bounces really high, but

214
00:22:23.640 --> 00:22:29.160
bounces that are maybe mechanical bounce, you know, so you

215
00:22:29.160 --> 00:22:31.640
don't have to do anything. You just land and it

216
00:22:31.759 --> 00:22:38.720
just pushes you up and at a height that it

217
00:22:38.720 --> 00:22:41.240
wouldn't matter if you felt you could be fine. So

218
00:22:41.319 --> 00:22:45.240
maybe a height of two feet or three feet, so

219
00:22:45.279 --> 00:22:48.279
you're always going to be you know. Health and safety

220
00:22:48.400 --> 00:22:56.200
is important. That's why I went to where I wear

221
00:22:56.240 --> 00:23:01.640
a no I said that last time, so stilt. I

222
00:23:01.680 --> 00:23:04.400
started listening to some of my old recordings. I can't

223
00:23:04.400 --> 00:23:08.440
believe some of the things I say. Wow, honestly, some

224
00:23:08.440 --> 00:23:10.279
of the things that slip out on my bum now

225
00:23:10.319 --> 00:23:16.720
my mouth is ridiculous. It's just so silly. And the

226
00:23:16.799 --> 00:23:18.680
other day he might not heard it. I was talking

227
00:23:18.680 --> 00:23:28.440
about the different pronunciations in America and England. So there's

228
00:23:30.079 --> 00:23:32.720
like David Bowie. I mean, I know he's not American,

229
00:23:32.759 --> 00:23:35.119
but it was like, is it Bowie is a Bowie?

230
00:23:35.240 --> 00:23:40.200
No one cared, even he didn't care. It's Bowie, No,

231
00:23:40.279 --> 00:23:45.319
it's Bowie. I actually, as a kid, saw people get

232
00:23:45.359 --> 00:23:51.799
into an argument, like a proper, you know, emotional argument

233
00:23:52.519 --> 00:24:01.160
over how to pronounce David Bowie's name. Can't be I

234
00:24:01.200 --> 00:24:07.319
can't imagine there's anything less important to anyone else except

235
00:24:07.559 --> 00:24:18.640
David Bowie or David Bowie. And I think I was

236
00:24:18.680 --> 00:24:21.720
talking about like the soaps, because we used to say, well,

237
00:24:24.319 --> 00:24:27.039
there was an argument. In my it wasn't like a

238
00:24:27.079 --> 00:24:32.839
big argument, but there was definitely a heated discussion because

239
00:24:33.119 --> 00:24:37.920
in the early eighties, very early eighties, there was like

240
00:24:38.400 --> 00:24:43.759
so many soap operas from America that were coming over,

241
00:24:44.440 --> 00:24:49.240
and unlike the soaps here which would be on regularly,

242
00:24:50.319 --> 00:24:53.400
so Coronation Street would be on I think back then

243
00:24:53.480 --> 00:24:58.079
probably twice a week. It increased over the years, maybe

244
00:24:58.079 --> 00:25:01.079
three times a week, but it was on quite regularly.

245
00:25:01.960 --> 00:25:07.000
East Enders hadn't started yet. Emma Dale Farm was on

246
00:25:08.200 --> 00:25:12.160
a few times a week. I think Coronation Street, I'm

247
00:25:12.160 --> 00:25:15.240
not that might still been on a few times a week,

248
00:25:15.799 --> 00:25:24.039
maybe every night, but these American soaps were or we

249
00:25:24.160 --> 00:25:29.559
got to see them once a week, and they were

250
00:25:30.200 --> 00:25:37.680
huge compared to because ours were just grotty. We all

251
00:25:37.759 --> 00:25:44.839
just had really grotty, kind of dull, gray soaps, a

252
00:25:44.880 --> 00:25:47.200
bit like the country can be a bit like that,

253
00:25:47.279 --> 00:25:50.920
you know, in this country quite gray. And I said

254
00:25:50.920 --> 00:25:53.839
that the other day. It's still lovely, but it's very

255
00:25:55.400 --> 00:26:02.440
you know, it's not the most colorful place at times.

256
00:26:03.240 --> 00:26:05.799
I mean there's months and months where it's just gray.

257
00:26:06.759 --> 00:26:16.200
It's just what is going on. And Coronation Street and

258
00:26:16.200 --> 00:26:19.599
Emmadale Farm, which is based on a farm that was

259
00:26:19.640 --> 00:26:23.160
never going to be very particularly colorful. Coronation Street was

260
00:26:23.359 --> 00:26:36.000
based in these just old fashioned streets, and Emma Dale,

261
00:26:36.039 --> 00:26:42.079
I was it. Coronation Crossroads was based in a motel

262
00:26:44.519 --> 00:26:52.000
I liked. I liked Crossroads. We used to have actually hospital,

263
00:26:54.279 --> 00:26:59.240
hospital hospital. It was a soap bo It was about

264
00:26:59.759 --> 00:27:03.839
no is in the hospital, maybe doctors General. Was it

265
00:27:04.079 --> 00:27:09.200
General Hospital? I'm pretty sure it was English General Hospital.

266
00:27:09.680 --> 00:27:15.000
And I can't believe that I remember. I just had

267
00:27:15.000 --> 00:27:19.039
a memory that I have not had for years and

268
00:27:19.160 --> 00:27:22.839
years and years and years and years, and just when

269
00:27:22.880 --> 00:27:34.039
I lived in Newcastle, General Hospital was on and I

270
00:27:34.079 --> 00:27:46.279
think I was running downstairs to you know what. We

271
00:27:46.359 --> 00:27:50.920
could see a hospital from our I'm pretty sure from

272
00:27:51.480 --> 00:27:56.799
the from the flats that I lived in there was

273
00:27:56.839 --> 00:28:02.559
a big high rise flat block of flats. Could see

274
00:28:07.039 --> 00:28:14.559
a hospital. I'm sure I could. I just got these

275
00:28:14.599 --> 00:28:17.720
little memories of the hospital and the TV show though

276
00:28:18.440 --> 00:28:22.000
and where I lived at the time, and I used

277
00:28:22.000 --> 00:28:30.759
to watch it. Wow, there was a bloke on there

278
00:28:30.799 --> 00:28:34.200
with a bit with a mustache. Yeah, he had a

279
00:28:34.279 --> 00:28:42.039
mustache and a white coat. I don't remember the tune

280
00:28:42.480 --> 00:28:49.839
the you know, the theme tune Welcome to General Hospital.

281
00:28:51.359 --> 00:28:56.000
We are a hospital and we are general.

282
00:28:56.720 --> 00:28:57.160
I don't know.

283
00:28:57.240 --> 00:29:05.240
I don't know what the theme tune was. I can't

284
00:29:05.279 --> 00:29:09.640
really think of any other soaps in the early eighties

285
00:29:10.200 --> 00:29:16.759
that was on that I used to watch. I mean,

286
00:29:16.920 --> 00:29:21.920
in the middle eighties we got all the well, we

287
00:29:22.039 --> 00:29:29.400
got like a lot of the Australian soaps, so Neighbors

288
00:29:31.079 --> 00:29:35.440
which is a massive hit, and then Home and Away

289
00:29:35.839 --> 00:29:41.599
which is also a massive hit, and then I think

290
00:29:42.000 --> 00:29:46.519
then Prison Cell Block h I'm not sure when that

291
00:29:46.599 --> 00:29:49.599
came out I know, I used to watch it when

292
00:29:49.599 --> 00:29:55.920
I was probably about sixteen seventeen and probably say sixteen,

293
00:29:56.160 --> 00:29:58.599
I used to watch Prisoner Cell Block H but it

294
00:29:58.680 --> 00:30:02.839
used to be on late at night and B B

295
00:30:03.119 --> 00:30:11.160
was the the one in charge. B White B and

296
00:30:11.359 --> 00:30:19.720
Missus Mangle. She was in Neighbors, Henry Bishop was in

297
00:30:19.839 --> 00:30:26.640
Home and Away. Wow. But you know what the one

298
00:30:27.000 --> 00:30:35.160
Australian soap that I personally think was the best out

299
00:30:35.200 --> 00:30:39.759
of all of them and never got its credit because

300
00:30:39.799 --> 00:30:42.920
it wasn't on peak time. He used to be on

301
00:30:43.440 --> 00:30:46.640
in the afternoons. I don't know when they first started

302
00:30:46.680 --> 00:30:49.640
showing it, but I think it'd been around a long time.

303
00:30:51.359 --> 00:30:56.240
I got completely addicted to it in nineteen eighty six

304
00:30:58.200 --> 00:31:06.720
and it's called Sons and DAWs now. That show. It

305
00:31:06.799 --> 00:31:11.559
was on every day. It knew I think it was

306
00:31:11.640 --> 00:31:14.599
every day anyway. It knew how to do a cliffhanger.

307
00:31:15.160 --> 00:31:24.000
It did the best cliffhangers, like the I can't think

308
00:31:24.039 --> 00:31:26.960
of anything. Bearing in mind, I was a proper TV

309
00:31:27.599 --> 00:31:33.839
buff back then. You know, TV and books, and when

310
00:31:33.839 --> 00:31:38.279
I got to about twelve, you know, but generally TV

311
00:31:38.400 --> 00:31:50.920
and books was kind of my favorite thing. Yeah, Doctor

312
00:31:50.960 --> 00:31:57.119
who used to have good cliffhangers. But what I noticed

313
00:31:57.440 --> 00:32:08.519
happened even like the A Team, or it's kind of

314
00:32:08.680 --> 00:32:13.640
obvious that I don't know, like a TV show that

315
00:32:13.920 --> 00:32:18.079
was let's say it was the eighteen or wonder Woman.

316
00:32:18.279 --> 00:32:28.559
Wonder Woman was trapped inside a I don't know, chocolate

317
00:32:30.359 --> 00:32:38.200
chocolate box covered in cream, but it was seafrough so

318
00:32:38.279 --> 00:32:42.599
you could watch her get changed. No, no, sorry, no,

319
00:32:43.359 --> 00:32:46.319
I'm just saying that it was that was and she

320
00:32:46.359 --> 00:32:48.200
couldn't get out of it, but she the only way

321
00:32:48.240 --> 00:32:50.400
she could get out of it is by getting trying

322
00:32:50.400 --> 00:32:53.880
on lots of different costumes. See, I was a kid.

323
00:32:53.920 --> 00:32:55.319
This is what I used to think about back then.

324
00:32:55.400 --> 00:32:58.240
Not now, that's just wrong. I wouldn't think about that,

325
00:32:58.319 --> 00:33:04.279
but I was. I was a young and childish, So

326
00:33:04.279 --> 00:33:10.640
she'd be in this chocolate seafroit box trying on various nineties.

327
00:33:11.480 --> 00:33:15.440
I don't know why I'm Stuff like that just makes

328
00:33:15.480 --> 00:33:20.359
you feel ill, just like just cover up. That's how

329
00:33:20.400 --> 00:33:23.359
I feel now. But you know, I was a teenager

330
00:33:23.440 --> 00:33:28.240
as well as what ten whatever, so eleven ten nine.

331
00:33:29.519 --> 00:33:32.799
I love Wonder Woman, but now I'm just like God,

332
00:33:32.920 --> 00:33:38.960
that is so gratuitous, and really, you know, what about

333
00:33:38.960 --> 00:33:43.279
equal rights people. But back then I loved seeing her

334
00:33:43.319 --> 00:33:47.079
bounce around. Not now I've seen it recently, and I'm

335
00:33:47.119 --> 00:33:50.880
just disgusted that that used to be on television for

336
00:33:51.279 --> 00:33:55.839
the populace to look at that that TV show is

337
00:33:55.880 --> 00:33:59.160
on television. Not that as in her, but the TV show.

338
00:34:00.880 --> 00:34:04.400
I think they really took advantage of her good nature

339
00:34:05.440 --> 00:34:11.440
and getting a running around in that skimpy Wonder Woman costume.

340
00:34:18.440 --> 00:34:19.920
I feel only tell in the window as soon as

341
00:34:19.920 --> 00:34:28.880
you were getting hot in here. What was I talking about? Erection? No, no,

342
00:34:32.559 --> 00:34:44.679
h sons and daughters. Yeah, oh, they all the way

343
00:34:44.760 --> 00:34:53.840
they used to leave it. Cliffhangers, cliffhangers. Amazing. Now Doctor

344
00:34:53.840 --> 00:34:59.360
Who used to be really good at that. But I noticed,

345
00:34:59.440 --> 00:35:03.000
like I don't know when it started happening, not just

346
00:35:03.079 --> 00:35:06.840
Doctor Who, but even other TV shows. Something happened where

347
00:35:07.599 --> 00:35:14.159
they would so, for example, I was doing that was

348
00:35:14.559 --> 00:35:21.360
so wonder Woman. Let's just think of the scenario. So

349
00:35:21.480 --> 00:35:31.800
Wonder Woman's in this this steel cage, but it's see

350
00:35:31.840 --> 00:35:34.320
through again. Well there's a big X ray machine so

351
00:35:34.360 --> 00:35:37.480
you can see through the still no stop that, So

352
00:35:38.519 --> 00:35:43.239
Wonder Woman is she's chained by her ankles and she's

353
00:35:43.360 --> 00:35:50.599
hanging upside down and there is there's an animal on

354
00:35:50.639 --> 00:35:54.280
the floor. No one knows what the animal is because

355
00:35:54.280 --> 00:35:56.519
no one can remember because no one is looking at

356
00:35:56.519 --> 00:35:59.960
the animal. But you know she's in danger, imminent danger,

357
00:36:00.079 --> 00:36:03.519
and like do do do do do do do do

358
00:36:03.519 --> 00:36:09.800
do do, and like will she will wonder woman survive?

359
00:36:11.440 --> 00:36:18.880
Will wonder Woman succumb to this imminent threat? Will anyone

360
00:36:19.480 --> 00:36:24.400
be able to? Will anyone be able to tell us

361
00:36:24.480 --> 00:36:27.119
what the animal was that was on the floor?

362
00:36:29.400 --> 00:36:29.599
You know?

363
00:36:31.400 --> 00:36:33.679
So all week long, I'd be waiting. I mean I

364
00:36:33.679 --> 00:36:37.760
wouldn't just literally just be sitting there waiting if on

365
00:36:37.920 --> 00:36:40.679
the TV for a whole week till the next Saturday,

366
00:36:41.559 --> 00:36:46.519
because unfortunately, the schooling system we have here does not

367
00:36:46.599 --> 00:36:53.239
account for that doesn't take consideration for important television programs.

368
00:36:56.320 --> 00:36:58.239
And then I'd go back the next week and I'd wait,

369
00:36:58.679 --> 00:37:00.480
but I didn't go back. I'd be there because that's

370
00:37:00.519 --> 00:37:05.519
where I lived, but I'd be not in that cage

371
00:37:05.599 --> 00:37:07.840
with an X race so you could see through it. No,

372
00:37:08.039 --> 00:37:13.519
what I mean is at home, and we'd all be there.

373
00:37:14.119 --> 00:37:19.480
We'd all be there for different reasons, watching it. And

374
00:37:19.519 --> 00:37:25.800
my older brothers would I think my oldest brother would

375
00:37:25.800 --> 00:37:27.320
watch it for a little while. Then he'd leave, and

376
00:37:27.320 --> 00:37:30.639
then they'd come back, and then my other brother would

377
00:37:30.719 --> 00:37:32.519
leave and come back. I don't know what they were doing.

378
00:37:33.159 --> 00:37:36.000
I just seemed to be It's almost like they'd taken turns.

379
00:37:36.039 --> 00:37:38.599
I think they must have had a had bad stomachs

380
00:37:38.679 --> 00:37:44.880
or something. He didn't have that toilet And then my

381
00:37:44.960 --> 00:37:50.400
dad's moaning, where's the toilet roll gone? Where's it all gone? Well,

382
00:37:50.440 --> 00:37:56.199
I don't know. I'm watching Wonder Woman and I need

383
00:37:56.239 --> 00:37:59.760
toilet roll. Well we all need something, don't we. I

384
00:37:59.840 --> 00:38:01.800
need to be able to watch Wonder Woman in peace,

385
00:38:03.440 --> 00:38:05.920
is what I thought to myself. I'm not gonna be

386
00:38:05.920 --> 00:38:13.960
saying it out loud, and you'd see her escape so

387
00:38:14.000 --> 00:38:18.800
as she'd so wobble, not wobble, but like move from

388
00:38:18.880 --> 00:38:23.760
side to side and managed to I mean, the abdominal

389
00:38:24.880 --> 00:38:29.239
strength that she must have had to do that to

390
00:38:29.280 --> 00:38:34.599
be able to lift herself up and from that angle

391
00:38:38.079 --> 00:38:42.000
and and and get back and break the chains, but

392
00:38:42.159 --> 00:38:45.920
climb up so that she didn't land. Whatever. I don't

393
00:38:45.960 --> 00:38:47.760
know what the animal. Could have been a shark, I

394
00:38:47.800 --> 00:38:50.360
don't know, could have been a hedgehog, I don't know

395
00:38:50.360 --> 00:38:53.519
what the hell it was On the floor that she

396
00:38:53.519 --> 00:39:00.639
didn't want to land on, and yeah, she is. I

397
00:39:00.679 --> 00:39:03.360
mean she'd been there for I mean I was young,

398
00:39:03.440 --> 00:39:08.039
but I like, I was thinking, she's been there a week.

399
00:39:08.840 --> 00:39:10.679
Why has no one got on a sort of a

400
00:39:11.679 --> 00:39:14.239
cup of tea and a donut or something. She's been

401
00:39:14.280 --> 00:39:17.239
there because there was nothing on her face. She wasn't

402
00:39:17.239 --> 00:39:19.880
her face wasn't covering anything like you think, because if

403
00:39:19.920 --> 00:39:22.559
she was eating upside down, your face would like sugar

404
00:39:22.599 --> 00:39:25.920
on and all kinds of stuff, wouldn't it. Because I'm

405
00:39:25.960 --> 00:39:28.760
not messy anyway. When I eat, it goes all down

406
00:39:28.800 --> 00:39:32.960
my top. Trying to eat, even try to eat upside down,

407
00:39:34.039 --> 00:39:38.559
it's it's practically impossible. But if you was upside down

408
00:39:38.599 --> 00:39:40.199
for a week, you kind of have to, wouldn't you

409
00:39:40.360 --> 00:39:44.360
learn have to learn how to? But there was no mess.

410
00:39:45.920 --> 00:39:48.239
She looked exactly the same as she did a week ago,

411
00:39:50.199 --> 00:39:55.000
which is pretty amazing. I know she's a superhero and everything,

412
00:39:55.079 --> 00:40:00.199
but it was Yeah, I couldn't really get my head

413
00:40:00.199 --> 00:40:03.119
around that. But you know, I was, I was seven

414
00:40:03.199 --> 00:40:07.239
years old. Don't don't blame me. Wow, it's not my fault.

415
00:40:08.199 --> 00:40:10.880
I didn't write the script. I didn't. I didn't I

416
00:40:10.920 --> 00:40:13.480
didn't direct it. I didn't. I didn't know. I thought

417
00:40:13.519 --> 00:40:18.239
it was real. I thought it was a documentary. I

418
00:40:18.239 --> 00:40:20.239
waited all week for that. So I went and like

419
00:40:24.920 --> 00:40:31.760
and she escaped. Then that was exciting all week, waiting

420
00:40:32.320 --> 00:40:38.039
to find out if wonder Woman escaped from that being,

421
00:40:38.400 --> 00:40:44.679
you know, chained upside down in a some kind of box,

422
00:40:45.079 --> 00:40:55.119
seafrough box or something, I don't know, whatever it was. No,

423
00:40:55.199 --> 00:41:02.840
it's in a warehouse. It was in a warehouse or

424
00:41:02.840 --> 00:41:07.519
was she in a tree? I remember when she she

425
00:41:07.679 --> 00:41:12.760
spun around and she turned into her what was it

426
00:41:12.840 --> 00:41:17.920
like a swimmer? I mean. She also had an invisible plane.

427
00:41:18.000 --> 00:41:21.599
That was funny. I don't know even I found that

428
00:41:21.679 --> 00:41:26.679
a bit funny. It's an invisible plane. She wasn't invisible

429
00:41:28.679 --> 00:41:30.519
me I could argue it was a wonder woman. She

430
00:41:30.599 --> 00:41:35.320
wasn't the invisible wonder Woman. She was wonder woman. However,

431
00:41:36.199 --> 00:41:39.880
if you're an invisible plane, it doesn't really make sense

432
00:41:40.000 --> 00:41:44.760
if you can be seen, does it. Oh, there's this.

433
00:41:46.639 --> 00:41:48.960
It's fine. It sounds like a plane, but I can't

434
00:41:48.960 --> 00:41:52.760
see anything. Can't you see wonder Woman there sitting in

435
00:41:52.800 --> 00:42:01.519
the clouds? Oh? Yeah, was she sitting on I don't know.

436
00:42:01.519 --> 00:42:05.840
If it's making a lot of noise. Whatever it is

437
00:42:05.880 --> 00:42:12.400
in betwings his noise. It's a plane. It sounds like

438
00:42:12.400 --> 00:42:15.159
a plane. It's a big plane. It's a plane. But

439
00:42:15.199 --> 00:42:18.719
it's invisible. It can't be a plane or else would

440
00:42:18.840 --> 00:42:22.119
vibrate like that. It's a plane. I don't know. If

441
00:42:22.239 --> 00:42:26.920
it's a plane, it's got to be. It must be invisible. Yeah,

442
00:42:26.960 --> 00:42:33.480
that's that's what it is. It's an invisible plane. You

443
00:42:33.519 --> 00:42:35.679
think it'd make her invisible, though, wouldn't you. That's what

444
00:42:35.719 --> 00:42:45.559
I'm trying to point out. Wonder Woman, Wonder Woman, that

445
00:42:45.719 --> 00:42:50.880
was my favorite TV show. I probably preferred Wonder Woman

446
00:42:50.920 --> 00:42:53.400
over the Hulk, although I did love the Hulk as well.

447
00:42:54.079 --> 00:42:57.400
And a six million dollar man or a bionic man?

448
00:42:59.199 --> 00:43:07.480
Who else? Kung Fu? He was a superhero Batman, of course,

449
00:43:07.559 --> 00:43:12.920
but the Batman's were from the sixties and I was

450
00:43:12.960 --> 00:43:16.159
watching him in the eighties. Although it's still great. They

451
00:43:16.239 --> 00:43:19.199
still are great even now. I think the original Batman

452
00:43:19.280 --> 00:43:25.800
shows they're funny. I don't ever remember seeing Superman TV

453
00:43:25.920 --> 00:43:33.440
shows until Lewis and Clark in the nineties. Was it

454
00:43:33.559 --> 00:43:39.360
Lewis and Clark, Yeah, Lewis and Clark. That was huge

455
00:43:40.840 --> 00:43:45.599
hugely successful in this country. That was peak viewing time

456
00:43:45.639 --> 00:43:53.559
on a Saturday night. But now Doctor Who and a

457
00:43:53.559 --> 00:43:56.440
lot of shows for the last twenty odd years or

458
00:43:56.480 --> 00:43:59.960
even more, maybe they'd have a cliffhanger and then it's

459
00:44:00.079 --> 00:44:03.599
say next week, tune in next week. So you've got

460
00:44:03.719 --> 00:44:10.960
Doctor Who in a cage, you know, in a box

461
00:44:12.119 --> 00:44:18.960
and trapped, and then it's gonna happen as you it's

462
00:44:18.960 --> 00:44:25.719
a daralic. There's a darlic. Oh, a darlic eating a

463
00:44:25.760 --> 00:44:30.719
sandwich or whatever. And then oh no, the squirrel is

464
00:44:30.760 --> 00:44:32.360
going to get him. Always a dark going to get

465
00:44:32.400 --> 00:44:35.760
him first, or a squirrel. There's a there's a crazy squirrel,

466
00:44:35.800 --> 00:44:41.480
a baseball bat. And then they say tune in next week,

467
00:44:41.719 --> 00:44:44.079
and they show you him sort of in a hammock

468
00:44:45.079 --> 00:44:52.360
eating some war melon and we've playing a harpsichord or whatever.

469
00:44:52.800 --> 00:44:57.360
It's like not at the same time, but it's like, well,

470
00:44:57.480 --> 00:45:00.400
clearly he escaped. It's not much of a cliff if

471
00:45:00.440 --> 00:45:03.320
you tell us, not just tell us, but show us,

472
00:45:03.480 --> 00:45:08.800
show us, show us, show us that Doctor Who escaped.

473
00:45:11.559 --> 00:45:15.559
Dear jez and I just wanted to point out, firstly,

474
00:45:16.320 --> 00:45:18.559
I think the way you were talking about Wonder Woman

475
00:45:19.519 --> 00:45:23.920
was wrong. Secondly, I think that you need to know

476
00:45:24.000 --> 00:45:29.719
that it's not doctor who it's the doctor. And secondly,

477
00:45:30.239 --> 00:45:32.320
the way you were talking about your brothers going out

478
00:45:32.320 --> 00:45:36.760
from taking turns in the bathroom, we're into the toilet. Wow,

479
00:45:38.239 --> 00:45:48.760
dear Jason blind. So yeah, I am, oh, yeah, this

480
00:45:48.840 --> 00:45:50.519
is what I was talking about. I just came out

481
00:45:50.519 --> 00:45:53.559
of sounding really silly the other day. So the whole

482
00:45:53.599 --> 00:45:57.599
thing about is it dynasty or is it dynasty? So

483
00:45:57.719 --> 00:46:03.000
basically we were arguing about how to pronounce certain words.

484
00:46:03.559 --> 00:46:11.000
It started off with David Bowie David Bowie or David Bowie,

485
00:46:11.280 --> 00:46:14.800
Bowie or Bowie. I think there was someone else. I

486
00:46:14.840 --> 00:46:22.239
can't remember what's the other name. There was other names

487
00:46:22.320 --> 00:46:25.760
that were weren't sure. I mean there was a time

488
00:46:25.800 --> 00:46:29.840
when we didn't know. Yeah, when I was in Wales,

489
00:46:31.719 --> 00:46:38.800
Boy George or Culture Club. You know Culture Club were big, big,

490
00:46:40.079 --> 00:46:45.760
like just come out and they were huge, and they

491
00:46:45.760 --> 00:46:50.639
were even in the eighteen So guess a bit of

492
00:46:50.760 --> 00:46:54.559
nostalgia there. What Culture Club was in the A team?

493
00:46:55.280 --> 00:47:03.480
Yes they were, And I remember sitting around outside the

494
00:47:03.559 --> 00:47:09.719
tent in Wales. We were all discussing whether or not

495
00:47:11.119 --> 00:47:19.199
boy George was actually a woman or a man, boy George,

496
00:47:20.280 --> 00:47:22.320
whether or not he was a woman or a man,

497
00:47:22.679 --> 00:47:26.159
because he wore a dress and we're having this conversation,

498
00:47:26.920 --> 00:47:33.679
looks like a woman. Not one person said, but his

499
00:47:33.800 --> 00:47:39.199
name is boy George. There's a clue. There's a clue somewhere.

500
00:47:39.880 --> 00:47:47.920
I mean, it might be quite cryptic. It's yeah, I

501
00:47:47.960 --> 00:47:56.280
love boy George. Culture club was great as we am

502
00:47:56.440 --> 00:48:00.480
a man. See it's in the title with our bction,

503
00:48:01.599 --> 00:48:08.719
I am a man who doesn't know. I mean there

504
00:48:08.760 --> 00:48:14.639
was evidence, but I think we just used to argue

505
00:48:14.679 --> 00:48:20.239
about anything for no reason that was it always had

506
00:48:20.239 --> 00:48:26.800
to be an argument. So there's four brothers and parents

507
00:48:27.239 --> 00:48:29.760
and it was just kind of okay. One of the

508
00:48:29.840 --> 00:48:33.679
kids was tiny, so he wasn't that involved, but he

509
00:48:33.719 --> 00:48:37.360
did get involved after as soon as he could talk.

510
00:48:37.400 --> 00:48:49.360
He was arguing, causing trouble proper, trouble maker, always arguing.

511
00:48:50.920 --> 00:48:53.679
In the end, I just used to just like kind

512
00:48:53.679 --> 00:48:59.000
of bothered with this. Why are you arguing? And then

513
00:48:59.079 --> 00:49:04.719
it's started, let's start another argument. We're not arguing. That's

514
00:49:04.760 --> 00:49:07.519
the whole feel of I remember seeing him big brother,

515
00:49:09.000 --> 00:49:14.960
this woman saying, yes, said, you seem so angry. I'm

516
00:49:15.000 --> 00:49:23.360
not angry. I'm passionate. Okay, okay, okay. That's the whole

517
00:49:23.360 --> 00:49:25.159
thing is how do you how do you make an

518
00:49:25.199 --> 00:49:33.760
angry person angry? Tell them they're angry? Wow, I'm not angry.

519
00:49:34.159 --> 00:49:49.239
I'm passion that I'm not hungry. Give me some food.

520
00:49:50.239 --> 00:49:57.280
Oh yeah. So the argument was all the discussion, but

521
00:49:57.320 --> 00:50:02.599
it was an argument is it dynasty or dynasty? Dynasty

522
00:50:02.880 --> 00:50:09.280
or dynasty. See, half of my family said it's dynasty.

523
00:50:10.159 --> 00:50:14.079
The other half was saying it's dynasty because it was

524
00:50:14.119 --> 00:50:16.920
pronounced nothing different in America or whatever. And this is

525
00:50:16.920 --> 00:50:18.280
what I was talking about this the other day in

526
00:50:18.280 --> 00:50:24.199
a podcast, and because I wanted to contribute, and we're

527
00:50:24.199 --> 00:50:28.079
already talking about David Bowie, ifde Bowie or David Bowie,

528
00:50:29.039 --> 00:50:35.920
and I showered out, what about Dallas? And we just

529
00:50:35.960 --> 00:50:37.840
stopped and looked at me. I said, I said, what

530
00:50:37.840 --> 00:50:40.119
do you mean? So? How do you say that? How

531
00:50:40.159 --> 00:50:40.880
do you pronounce that?

532
00:50:40.920 --> 00:50:41.159
One?

533
00:50:43.239 --> 00:50:47.039
I really thought I was contributing something to the argument,

534
00:50:47.159 --> 00:50:51.199
but just gave me the giggles. When I thought about

535
00:50:51.199 --> 00:50:55.360
it the other day. It's such a silly thing to

536
00:50:55.440 --> 00:51:00.480
say in it, what about Dallas. H It's not as

537
00:51:00.480 --> 00:51:03.599
funny now, but it was back then it felt funny

538
00:51:03.840 --> 00:51:11.440
because it was just I do like absurd, absurd I do.

539
00:51:11.840 --> 00:51:15.599
I don't know why, just tickles me a little bit,

540
00:51:17.719 --> 00:51:28.480
just just really silly things makes me laugh. So I

541
00:51:28.519 --> 00:51:33.679
did that. Yeah, put that podcast together with all the

542
00:51:33.719 --> 00:51:38.800
recordings from last week, with the last seven days, just

543
00:51:38.840 --> 00:51:44.679
to let me boy to sleep once or LMB white yes,

544
00:51:46.440 --> 00:51:53.320
LMB whitey yes, let me bore, LMB White yes, you

545
00:51:53.440 --> 00:52:05.159
to sleep, Yeah, LMB White Yes. I wanted to make

546
00:52:05.199 --> 00:52:09.840
a recording earlier, but I just couldn't do it. I

547
00:52:09.880 --> 00:52:11.960
wouldn't have been able to do it if I've fallen asleep.

548
00:52:13.119 --> 00:52:20.519
My voice is all deep now or deep I ball

549
00:52:19.679 --> 00:52:25.280
and star. I have to do that every time I

550
00:52:25.360 --> 00:52:28.400
every time I got a crocon, I have to cry

551
00:52:28.440 --> 00:52:29.880
and try and do the older.

552
00:52:31.239 --> 00:52:49.000
I ball, oh and star, rolling, move and moaning, sheepbag bragging, moving, rolling, moaning, moaning,

553
00:52:49.519 --> 00:52:50.119
raw hard.

554
00:52:52.559 --> 00:52:57.599
Yeah, I sometimes feel that I'm in the middle of

555
00:53:00.000 --> 00:53:06.000
It's almost like the end of an era, the beginning

556
00:53:06.039 --> 00:53:11.280
of an era, the end of that era, and then

557
00:53:11.320 --> 00:53:14.360
the beginning of another era. It might just be because

558
00:53:14.400 --> 00:53:20.000
I've lived so long, but it's like the end of

559
00:53:20.000 --> 00:53:25.719
the seventies seemed to give way to kind of a

560
00:53:25.800 --> 00:53:32.239
new period, and the music was quite different. The world

561
00:53:32.360 --> 00:53:36.760
seemed quite different. That's probably more to do with you know,

562
00:53:36.840 --> 00:53:40.039
I was just getting older. But the seventies, when I

563
00:53:40.039 --> 00:53:47.559
think of the seventies, I think were a very, very gray,

564
00:53:50.639 --> 00:53:56.320
very I just yeah, just I just remember a lot

565
00:53:56.360 --> 00:54:00.840
of the strikes and all that stuff, and it was, yeah,

566
00:54:01.000 --> 00:54:05.239
this didn't seem great. Some people loved the seventies, so

567
00:54:05.960 --> 00:54:07.679
I was a kid, so I didn't get to really

568
00:54:07.760 --> 00:54:13.559
experience the seventies in sort of an amazing way. But

569
00:54:18.400 --> 00:54:26.599
the eighties seemed different. Then there was the nineties. So

570
00:54:26.719 --> 00:54:33.079
for me, my years in a way were the eighties

571
00:54:33.119 --> 00:54:46.639
and nineties, so you know, from ten to thirty, because

572
00:54:46.679 --> 00:54:51.599
the twenties are quite I would say, important period, isn't it,

573
00:54:57.360 --> 00:55:06.960
And that period of going through teenage years and maneuvering

574
00:55:07.000 --> 00:55:12.320
the whole kind of leaving school, getting a job, perhaps

575
00:55:12.440 --> 00:55:19.079
having a relationship of some kind, and finding somewhere to

576
00:55:19.280 --> 00:55:23.440
live and you know, pain rent and all that stuff.

577
00:55:23.880 --> 00:55:27.800
Maybe for the first time it was Yeah, it was

578
00:55:27.840 --> 00:55:31.239
an interesting It wasn't interesting at all. Actually, I don't

579
00:55:31.239 --> 00:55:33.880
know why I said the word interesting, but it can be.

580
00:55:33.960 --> 00:55:41.719
I guess an interesting period for some people. No, I

581
00:55:42.000 --> 00:55:48.119
was never a big fan of pain rent. I'll be honest. Yeah,

582
00:55:48.280 --> 00:55:55.800
once I was. Once I got my flat above the

583
00:55:55.880 --> 00:55:58.440
chip shop when I was sixteen. Once I moved in there,

584
00:55:58.719 --> 00:56:03.719
paying forty pounds a week, I had forty seven pounds

585
00:56:03.719 --> 00:56:06.159
a week coming in. There's how much money I was

586
00:56:06.159 --> 00:56:08.960
earning a week. So I was paying forty pounds out

587
00:56:09.000 --> 00:56:17.599
of that for the rent. So you know, it was

588
00:56:20.239 --> 00:56:23.800
I was actually better off financially, better off when I

589
00:56:23.800 --> 00:56:26.440
had a paper round. When I was living at home

590
00:56:26.519 --> 00:56:28.199
and had a paper round, I had more money in

591
00:56:28.199 --> 00:56:31.360
my pocket than I had when I was working full time.

592
00:56:32.280 --> 00:56:34.119
And I was doing six days a week as well.

593
00:56:38.639 --> 00:56:41.360
Well we're evenings, you know, but you know, six different

594
00:56:41.440 --> 00:56:46.880
days I had Sunday off, and it was weird. It's like,

595
00:56:53.199 --> 00:56:55.559
it's really strange to think that some of the people

596
00:56:55.599 --> 00:57:07.320
I worked with there would be now pensioners. Some of

597
00:57:07.360 --> 00:57:13.920
them were probably had a good sort of I don't know,

598
00:57:15.119 --> 00:57:18.519
six seven years on me. Maybe they were twenty six,

599
00:57:18.719 --> 00:57:23.320
probably about five years maybe six years so twenty two,

600
00:57:23.440 --> 00:57:27.960
so it'd be in their sixties. And some of the

601
00:57:28.039 --> 00:57:31.719
waitresses that were maybe a year or so younger than me,

602
00:57:33.400 --> 00:57:37.159
so they'll be kind of my age. Now, possibly I

603
00:57:37.159 --> 00:57:45.760
had like loads of kids. Maybe maybe not. I didn't

604
00:57:45.760 --> 00:57:49.440
really keeping contact with them really. I think one of

605
00:57:49.440 --> 00:57:57.880
them had quite a few kids. Didn't have waiters there.

606
00:58:00.199 --> 00:58:02.800
It was like a chip shop restaurant. There was a

607
00:58:02.840 --> 00:58:06.760
restaurant there. There was not a lot of tables, but

608
00:58:06.800 --> 00:58:10.519
it was definitely it was a good size to make money.

609
00:58:10.679 --> 00:58:15.280
They were definitely making money. They have coaches, coach trips

610
00:58:15.320 --> 00:58:18.760
or pensioners come and eat in there on a thinker

611
00:58:18.880 --> 00:58:22.760
Tuesday and a Thursday. Because it was a seaside place,

612
00:58:24.239 --> 00:58:27.519
so even in the winter, people coaches would come down

613
00:58:27.599 --> 00:58:32.199
from I don't know, London maybe or Essex or different

614
00:58:32.199 --> 00:58:37.440
parts around the area that come down and go and

615
00:58:37.519 --> 00:58:40.880
eat in a restaurant or go for a walk on

616
00:58:40.920 --> 00:58:43.440
the beach or on a promenade.

617
00:58:43.519 --> 00:58:43.719
You know.

618
00:58:45.880 --> 00:58:52.400
Yeah, and I think there was an OAP discount. Can

619
00:58:52.440 --> 00:58:56.079
you hear all that screaming in the garden agame Wow,

620
00:58:58.000 --> 00:59:04.039
I can't escape it. Unfortunately, it's just I think it

621
00:59:04.119 --> 00:59:08.119
might just be a little with an echoy area. Maybe

622
00:59:08.119 --> 00:59:11.840
they're not shouting all the time, maybe they're talking just normal,

623
00:59:13.280 --> 00:59:20.239
normal kind of volume, but it's just echoing I mean,

624
00:59:20.519 --> 00:59:23.079
I don't know how else to say it. Maybe it's

625
00:59:23.159 --> 00:59:33.239
just like magnificated in itself. It's possible that's not what's happening,

626
00:59:33.280 --> 00:59:45.679
but it's possible. It might be. It might be m Yeah,

627
00:59:46.199 --> 00:59:52.880
And it's strange thinking about people that. Even my karate instructor,

628
00:59:55.199 --> 01:00:00.639
I think he's now in his seventies. I had when

629
01:00:00.639 --> 01:00:05.960
I was at school. So when I was what fourteen fifteen,

630
01:00:07.519 --> 01:00:12.800
he was a good twenty years older than me, or

631
01:00:12.840 --> 01:00:22.760
maybe fifteen he was maybe he was thirty, yeah, maybe,

632
01:00:22.920 --> 01:00:27.199
so it will be about seventy now it might have

633
01:00:27.280 --> 01:00:29.320
been a little bit. It might have been early thirties,

634
01:00:29.320 --> 01:00:32.320
but it was a fully grown out or he wasn't

635
01:00:32.320 --> 01:00:39.039
in his twenties anyway, he could have been twenty nine,

636
01:00:39.639 --> 01:00:41.800
but I would probably say he was about thirty at

637
01:00:41.840 --> 01:00:51.639
the time, so yeah, it'd be seventy. He was one

638
01:00:51.679 --> 01:00:55.679
of my heroes. I had heroes. I never told them.

639
01:00:55.760 --> 01:00:58.079
You can't really walk up to someone and say you're

640
01:00:58.159 --> 01:01:03.360
my hero bye. You know, It's it's just it's a

641
01:01:03.400 --> 01:01:08.679
bit weird, isn't it. But he was one of my heroes.

642
01:01:08.719 --> 01:01:12.880
He was my karate instructor, and you know, I had

643
01:01:12.960 --> 01:01:20.039
heroes that were famous and Bruce Lee and boxes that

644
01:01:20.119 --> 01:01:24.760
I've seen like Frank Bruno and you know, when I

645
01:01:24.800 --> 01:01:31.280
was a kid, TV characters, Wonder Woman and you know,

646
01:01:31.360 --> 01:01:38.639
they were heroes. But then he was like a real

647
01:01:38.719 --> 01:01:46.480
life person that I looked up to. I had no choice.

648
01:01:46.519 --> 01:01:49.400
It was about six or six, but you know, he

649
01:01:49.639 --> 01:01:54.000
looked up to him as a as a I don't

650
01:01:54.000 --> 01:01:55.880
know about a role model, because I had no idea

651
01:01:55.920 --> 01:02:00.000
what kind of life he led, but I just really

652
01:02:00.199 --> 01:02:05.880
liked him. And there was another instruck where he was

653
01:02:05.880 --> 01:02:09.559
a brown belt with this other person. He became a

654
01:02:09.559 --> 01:02:12.920
black belt shortly, you think after I left school or

655
01:02:12.960 --> 01:02:16.679
just before I left school, and I really looked up

656
01:02:16.719 --> 01:02:19.199
to him, and yeah, he was definitely a black belt

657
01:02:19.199 --> 01:02:21.880
before I left school. So I think he probably got

658
01:02:21.920 --> 01:02:25.239
his black belt when I was about fifteen fourteen, Maybe

659
01:02:27.119 --> 01:02:30.679
not my instructor, the main instructor was already like a

660
01:02:30.800 --> 01:02:34.119
second belt second day. I think he got his black

661
01:02:34.119 --> 01:02:40.360
belt in the seventies. Yeah, I think he got his

662
01:02:40.360 --> 01:02:43.039
black belt in the seventies. I could look it up.

663
01:02:43.079 --> 01:02:45.199
I can actually look up these information if I wanted,

664
01:02:47.559 --> 01:02:50.840
But I'm sitting down so I can't be bothered and

665
01:02:50.880 --> 01:02:53.360
it's so nice to not be looking at a computer screen.

666
01:02:54.920 --> 01:03:05.360
Oh oh, it's lovely. Just means I can't fact check

667
01:03:06.760 --> 01:03:17.119
any of my lies never mind never mind me what

668
01:03:17.239 --> 01:03:20.000
other people did I was, did I look up to

669
01:03:26.719 --> 01:03:33.920
real life people? I mean, there were real life people,

670
01:03:33.960 --> 01:03:38.079
but it's not people that I knew there were when

671
01:03:38.119 --> 01:03:43.960
I was in my twenties. There was comedians that I

672
01:03:43.960 --> 01:03:48.679
looked up to that I mean, there's loads that were

673
01:03:48.760 --> 01:03:55.559
just brilliant comedians. So not all of them liked me,

674
01:03:56.159 --> 01:03:57.719
or I say, like me, I don't know if any

675
01:03:57.719 --> 01:04:00.280
of them liked me, but not all of them gave

676
01:04:00.360 --> 01:04:06.280
me acknowledged my existence as it were. But some did,

677
01:04:07.360 --> 01:04:13.039
and they're the ones that I respected most because you know,

678
01:04:13.280 --> 01:04:23.719
Alan Davis, Harry Hill, people like Lee Mac, other ones

679
01:04:23.760 --> 01:04:30.599
that Lie Mac wasn't early nineties, but he by all

680
01:04:30.639 --> 01:04:33.280
these people that kind went on to have TV careers

681
01:04:33.360 --> 01:04:38.400
and they were friendly to me. I used to get

682
01:04:38.400 --> 01:04:41.760
on very well with Tim Vine, who went on to

683
01:04:41.920 --> 01:04:47.400
do a lot of TV work, and I kind of

684
01:04:47.400 --> 01:04:52.840
had a little at different periods. So when I was performing,

685
01:04:53.480 --> 01:04:57.440
I got to know kind of got to know everyone

686
01:04:58.760 --> 01:05:03.360
on the circuit, all the promoters, the club owners, you know,

687
01:05:03.400 --> 01:05:07.679
and all the comedians, the ones that were successful, the

688
01:05:07.719 --> 01:05:12.440
ones that were just plodding by and were happy to

689
01:05:12.559 --> 01:05:15.800
just do a few gigs a month and maybe get

690
01:05:15.800 --> 01:05:20.159
paid for it, and others that were aiming for bigger things,

691
01:05:21.079 --> 01:05:28.039
some that were on the way to being famous, some

692
01:05:28.199 --> 01:05:33.280
that were already famous but still tipping their toes, dipping

693
01:05:33.320 --> 01:05:36.679
their toes into the comedy scene, maybe do a few

694
01:05:36.719 --> 01:05:40.480
gigs here and there just to you know, practice some

695
01:05:40.559 --> 01:05:45.079
new material for an upcoming tour or something like that,

696
01:05:45.159 --> 01:05:48.800
you know. And then there was ones that were new

697
01:05:49.320 --> 01:05:54.760
like myself, who just starting out, didn't really know what

698
01:05:54.800 --> 01:05:58.000
they were doing. And then out of those new ones,

699
01:05:58.559 --> 01:06:01.679
there was those that went on to be famous, and

700
01:06:02.000 --> 01:06:07.800
they were good almost straight away. I wasn't in that category.

701
01:06:09.079 --> 01:06:09.400
I was.

702
01:06:09.719 --> 01:06:13.400
I probably classed as a newbie the whole time I'm

703
01:06:13.559 --> 01:06:20.800
doing it, really yeah, But so I had that eight

704
01:06:20.880 --> 01:06:27.599
years of being around comedians. I can't I can't even

705
01:06:27.920 --> 01:06:33.639
imagine how many performances stand up comedy performances I saw

706
01:06:34.960 --> 01:06:40.679
during that period. In fact, the only people that would

707
01:06:40.679 --> 01:06:43.360
have seen as many stand up performances as I have,

708
01:06:45.000 --> 01:06:47.719
as many probably and also maybe a lot more as well.

709
01:06:47.800 --> 01:06:51.000
But the only people that will have seen the amount

710
01:06:51.039 --> 01:06:55.079
of performances of stand up comedy as myself are those

711
01:06:55.280 --> 01:07:02.079
that either perform perform comedy or are in let's say

712
01:07:02.360 --> 01:07:08.880
they run a club. That's the only people that would

713
01:07:08.880 --> 01:07:14.480
have seen as much comedy as me during that time.

714
01:07:16.119 --> 01:07:19.199
I guess I suppose if someone went to comedy twice

715
01:07:19.239 --> 01:07:24.199
a week since nineteen ninety, then they'll see more comedy

716
01:07:24.239 --> 01:07:28.559
than me, because that's what like thirty odd years, isn't

717
01:07:28.599 --> 01:07:34.800
it thirty years of Yeah, so they'd seen more comedy

718
01:07:34.800 --> 01:07:37.679
than me. But I'm sure as an average person that

719
01:07:37.800 --> 01:07:41.159
maybe goes to see comedy once a week, that's an

720
01:07:41.239 --> 01:07:44.280
avid fan. Something that goes to see a comedy show

721
01:07:44.760 --> 01:07:50.920
once a week is a big comedy fan. But I

722
01:07:51.000 --> 01:07:57.039
used to go multiple times a week. But you know,

723
01:07:57.079 --> 01:07:59.880
I was trying to learn to do it. And then

724
01:08:00.239 --> 01:08:02.400
so I had some people I was friends with a

725
01:08:02.400 --> 01:08:09.519
lot of the open acts, the new people. And then

726
01:08:11.880 --> 01:08:15.800
when I was doing some DJing in a comedy club,

727
01:08:17.319 --> 01:08:20.800
I became friends with the comedians. The ones that were

728
01:08:20.800 --> 01:08:24.399
getting paid they're really they're the good ones. There was

729
01:08:24.439 --> 01:08:26.720
not that the ones that weren't getting paid much weren't good,

730
01:08:26.760 --> 01:08:31.119
but the established you know, and so many of them

731
01:08:31.159 --> 01:08:34.840
went on to do TV work and got their own

732
01:08:36.079 --> 01:08:41.680
some of them became really famous, like Jimmy Carr. I

733
01:08:41.720 --> 01:08:45.720
saw him for years and years and years. He was

734
01:08:46.119 --> 01:08:51.439
almost like the regular compare at this comedy club, and

735
01:08:51.479 --> 01:08:56.000
then he became it, started doing TV stuff and then

736
01:08:56.000 --> 01:09:00.840
he was headlining. I mean, he was successful very quickly

737
01:09:02.479 --> 01:09:08.720
and still is. So I used to see him also.

738
01:09:08.920 --> 01:09:16.079
He's his management was my friend, well two friends, my

739
01:09:16.199 --> 01:09:20.920
friend and a lady who she still manages him. But

740
01:09:22.199 --> 01:09:26.039
my friend also managed him because they did it with

741
01:09:26.079 --> 01:09:33.600
the comedy club. So it's Jimmy Carr's manager was my

742
01:09:33.720 --> 01:09:38.920
friend for I don't know how many years, a few years,

743
01:09:42.920 --> 01:09:47.760
and if you don't have is now with Chambers management.

744
01:09:49.800 --> 01:09:52.520
I used to know her, Hannah Chambers. I used to

745
01:09:52.560 --> 01:09:58.000
know how I haven't seen her for donkeys and zebras

746
01:09:58.000 --> 01:10:03.840
and long time. Last time I saw it was wow,

747
01:10:06.039 --> 01:10:13.520
long time ago, decades, decades and decades and decades. What

748
01:10:13.720 --> 01:10:16.399
was gone with her? I always like to as gone

749
01:10:16.439 --> 01:10:23.760
with her decades ago, decades and decades. It's really weird.

750
01:10:23.800 --> 01:10:27.319
She got herself an assistant and I used to still

751
01:10:27.359 --> 01:10:29.920
go up to London to visit and stuff, and I

752
01:10:29.920 --> 01:10:33.960
couldn't believe it. I walked into the office because she

753
01:10:34.079 --> 01:10:37.399
was still working from the above the comedy club, because

754
01:10:37.399 --> 01:10:41.079
that's where the agency was based, and there was a

755
01:10:41.119 --> 01:10:46.760
female there. It was just like a younger version of her.

756
01:10:47.640 --> 01:10:55.000
Not related, but honestly, same characteristics, had looked very similar,

757
01:10:55.560 --> 01:11:02.359
same same hair, curly hair, the same build of body.

758
01:11:02.520 --> 01:11:04.039
Is like, if.

759
01:11:03.960 --> 01:11:08.560
You you gotta be related, surely, surely actually like your

760
01:11:08.600 --> 01:11:13.720
youngest sister or something. Wasn't no relationship, no, no, like

761
01:11:13.960 --> 01:11:17.000
blood related relatives, relatives.

762
01:11:19.399 --> 01:11:23.560
It's just like that was just one of those weird moments,

763
01:11:23.640 --> 01:11:36.600
like wow, just remember that. I don't know if you

764
01:11:36.600 --> 01:11:37.039
can hear that.

765
01:11:37.640 --> 01:11:43.079
Where were were were w wow wow wow wow out

766
01:11:43.119 --> 01:11:54.279
there whore wow wow wow wow wow wow wow.

767
01:11:56.399 --> 01:12:06.399
So what was that all about? Oh yeah, but why

768
01:12:06.760 --> 01:12:11.880
was I talking about gigs? Comedy gigs? I don't know.

769
01:12:17.840 --> 01:12:22.640
It's kind of weird. How many of what did Who

770
01:12:22.640 --> 01:12:25.840
did I see? Oh? I saw a comedian. It was

771
01:12:25.880 --> 01:12:28.960
always older than me anyway, but not not by a

772
01:12:29.079 --> 01:12:35.319
huge amount. And I saw him on this particular comedian.

773
01:12:35.359 --> 01:12:38.439
He's been on TV loads and he's had a really

774
01:12:38.439 --> 01:12:43.199
good career, and I saw him on some game show,

775
01:12:44.600 --> 01:12:50.039
you know, question quiz show thing like a celebrity version,

776
01:12:51.039 --> 01:12:55.880
and I just looks so old now, I mean he is,

777
01:12:55.960 --> 01:13:01.960
but it's like, wow, he's just I just remember what

778
01:13:02.000 --> 01:13:06.920
he looked like in the early nineties. And no one

779
01:13:06.960 --> 01:13:08.800
looks the same as I did in the early nineties,

780
01:13:08.840 --> 01:13:11.720
and they shouldn't either. If you find someone that looks

781
01:13:11.720 --> 01:13:15.199
the same as I did in the early nineties, call

782
01:13:15.279 --> 01:13:23.279
the police there's something going on. I remember Steve Coogan,

783
01:13:23.640 --> 01:13:27.159
I never knew. I never never spoke to Steve Coogan.

784
01:13:27.680 --> 01:13:32.000
He was already pretty much a big shot long before

785
01:13:32.680 --> 01:13:35.840
I was even on the scene. He was I think

786
01:13:35.880 --> 01:13:39.760
he was doing voiceovers for Spitting Image, and he was

787
01:13:41.920 --> 01:13:47.640
already really successful. He wasn't like famous yet, but he

788
01:13:47.760 --> 01:13:53.399
was on its way. And to me, Steve Coogan's probably

789
01:13:53.439 --> 01:13:59.560
the the Alan Partridge character is the best commonly character

790
01:13:59.640 --> 01:14:03.000
I think think for me personally, I think it's the

791
01:14:03.039 --> 01:14:09.079
best comedy character ever created. And there's been There's been

792
01:14:09.199 --> 01:14:12.760
so many in Billco's one, isn't it? Just for example?

793
01:14:13.279 --> 01:14:26.960
But Borat Inspector, Cluso, Inspectaclusa. I mean, yeah, I don't

794
01:14:26.960 --> 01:14:32.319
compare any of them with each other, but what what

795
01:14:32.520 --> 01:14:37.000
he's done is the substance he's added and the fact

796
01:14:37.039 --> 01:14:46.640
that he's been doing the same character since for thirty

797
01:14:46.840 --> 01:14:57.279
five odd years is phenomenal. It is something almost unrivaled,

798
01:14:57.319 --> 01:15:00.239
I would say, I mean, is there some people was

799
01:15:04.199 --> 01:15:11.920
Dame Edna Everidge, so she was that was a character

800
01:15:12.000 --> 01:15:17.279
and she was probably doing that for like forty odd years,

801
01:15:17.319 --> 01:15:21.239
if not more, or he was doing that for forty

802
01:15:21.239 --> 01:15:25.560
odd years. But I can't. And Lily Savage, but Lily, well,

803
01:15:25.600 --> 01:15:28.319
both of them no longer here are they. Lily Savage,

804
01:15:29.680 --> 01:15:34.479
it's not weird. It was not weird, but Lily Savage

805
01:15:34.840 --> 01:15:42.199
never really wasn't really my thing, didn't really I don't

806
01:15:42.239 --> 01:15:44.760
know what it was because I know it's a character

807
01:15:44.840 --> 01:15:51.359
and that's what he became famous for, and you know,

808
01:15:51.520 --> 01:15:53.960
I think he won the Perier for it in the

809
01:15:54.000 --> 01:15:59.359
early nineties. And what I liked, though, is when he

810
01:15:59.479 --> 01:16:04.079
just was himself and he did a TV show during

811
01:16:04.119 --> 01:16:11.199
the day and it was such a good show. It

812
01:16:11.279 --> 01:16:17.239
was funny, it was just I don't know, he was

813
01:16:17.399 --> 01:16:23.720
almost like the perfect TV host. It was so good.

814
01:16:24.199 --> 01:16:27.039
He loved dogs and I can't remember his name now,

815
01:16:27.119 --> 01:16:35.239
Oh Dowd. Isn't it something O'Leary, not do it O'Leary.

816
01:16:38.319 --> 01:16:46.199
Did I say his name is it's from Liverpool. What

817
01:16:46.359 --> 01:16:50.520
was his I can't remember what the female name was.

818
01:16:50.560 --> 01:16:54.600
Now that's terrible in it. But he was so good.

819
01:16:54.800 --> 01:16:58.680
I really liked him a lot. Just I never got

820
01:16:58.680 --> 01:17:03.920
to see the performance on stage of him doing his

821
01:17:03.960 --> 01:17:08.039
act likes comedy act, because he was pretty much already

822
01:17:08.119 --> 01:17:10.760
famous or on his way to be a famous. He

823
01:17:10.840 --> 01:17:15.479
was already doing shows like touring and stuff like that

824
01:17:16.039 --> 01:17:20.439
before I had even arrived. He was big pretty much

825
01:17:20.439 --> 01:17:31.960
straight away. Not straight away, but he was popular. Oleary.

826
01:17:32.640 --> 01:17:39.600
I can't think Lee Mack, who's very well known in

827
01:17:39.600 --> 01:17:43.880
this country. He once said to me that he liked

828
01:17:43.880 --> 01:17:48.560
my act. So there. He might've just been saying it

829
01:17:48.640 --> 01:17:52.960
just to be kind, but he said it. This was

830
01:17:53.039 --> 01:18:02.439
in nineteen ninety seven or eight ninety eight, probably ninety

831
01:18:02.479 --> 01:18:09.880
seven ninety eight, one of them, and I said thank you.

832
01:18:11.640 --> 01:18:15.720
I said, you're not too bad. I reckon, if you

833
01:18:15.840 --> 01:18:17.920
keep going, you might be able to get some paid gigs.

834
01:18:20.600 --> 01:18:24.399
Now he's probably one of the most famous comedians in

835
01:18:24.439 --> 01:18:29.720
the country. Actually a limac is that a great career?

836
01:18:31.800 --> 01:18:37.000
Very quick now, I know because we told me his

837
01:18:37.159 --> 01:18:41.560
biggest hero was Tim Vine, who I also knew because

838
01:18:41.560 --> 01:18:44.840
I started at the same time as Tim Vine, and

839
01:18:45.520 --> 01:18:50.680
Tim went on to be he He's said, this is

840
01:18:50.680 --> 01:18:54.920
something that, this is trivia, this is a trivia Tuesday thing.

841
01:18:55.960 --> 01:19:00.920
When Channel five launched in I think it was nineteen

842
01:19:01.039 --> 01:19:05.720
ninety seven, could have been ninety six, but I think

843
01:19:05.760 --> 01:19:12.079
it was ninety seven, like beginning of the year ish. Yeah,

844
01:19:12.079 --> 01:19:18.159
I think it was ninety seven, nineteen ninety seven. Tim

845
01:19:18.319 --> 01:19:23.119
Vine was the face of the new channel. Now, bear

846
01:19:23.119 --> 01:19:25.880
in her mind we only had four channels BBC one,

847
01:19:26.000 --> 01:19:32.159
BBC two, ITV and Channel four. Would had Channel four

848
01:19:32.279 --> 01:19:37.560
since put about nineteen eighty two, so before that, you

849
01:19:37.600 --> 01:19:42.600
know three channels. So in a country that only has

850
01:19:42.880 --> 01:19:47.840
four channels, a fifth channel is a big deal and

851
01:19:47.880 --> 01:19:54.960
it was huge publicity. So when Channel five launched, Tim

852
01:19:55.119 --> 01:19:58.399
Vine launched it not just on his own, but he

853
01:19:58.600 --> 01:20:03.239
was the face of tim of Channel five in the

854
01:20:03.319 --> 01:20:07.760
same way that Jimmy Carr became the face of Channel four,

855
01:20:08.479 --> 01:20:11.760
although Channel four was already established, but Jimmy Carr was

856
01:20:12.800 --> 01:20:17.000
like he was on lots of different things. Tim Vine

857
01:20:17.039 --> 01:20:22.520
was on lots of different things on Channel five. He

858
01:20:22.640 --> 01:20:27.920
had I think at least two game shows and some

859
01:20:28.000 --> 01:20:34.880
other stuff. So he was flying proper flying, which was great.

860
01:20:39.800 --> 01:20:41.359
I think the last time I saw it was about

861
01:20:41.399 --> 01:20:53.760
nineteen ninety nine. Yeah, oh yeah, So why am I

862
01:20:53.840 --> 01:21:04.119
mentioning him? What's his name? Lee Mack absolutely like his hero.

863
01:21:04.359 --> 01:21:09.840
His comedy hero was Tim Vine, and he wanted to

864
01:21:09.880 --> 01:21:13.199
be like Tim Vine. But it was never going to

865
01:21:13.279 --> 01:21:15.439
be like Tim Vine because he just had a different act.

866
01:21:16.159 --> 01:21:19.840
But I think they enjoyed the puns because Tim Vine

867
01:21:19.960 --> 01:21:27.000
was kind of the king of puns. And and I

868
01:21:27.039 --> 01:21:29.800
think he held the world record for the most jokes

869
01:21:29.840 --> 01:21:36.119
told in a specific amount of time. He is like quick

870
01:21:36.159 --> 01:21:47.359
fire jokes, black man mak like really but he was, Yeah,

871
01:21:47.399 --> 01:21:50.760
he I used to see him. I remember what his

872
01:21:50.960 --> 01:21:54.439
is weird, right, So Tim Vine went on really, you know,

873
01:21:54.520 --> 01:21:56.880
he had a really good career, and he did work

874
01:21:57.000 --> 01:22:01.359
with Lee Mack. They worked together a couple of times. Actually,

875
01:22:02.039 --> 01:22:05.239
I think they had are called the stand Up Show

876
01:22:05.279 --> 01:22:08.800
and then they did another one not going Out, So

877
01:22:08.960 --> 01:22:12.159
he was in his work with they both worked together.

878
01:22:15.399 --> 01:22:24.520
I was two things I remember about Tim Vine, Right,

879
01:22:24.800 --> 01:22:27.359
it's weird. I'm just talking about I'm talking about people

880
01:22:27.359 --> 01:22:29.159
that you might not have ever heard of, especially if

881
01:22:29.159 --> 01:22:33.119
you're not maybe from this country, but you might want

882
01:22:33.119 --> 01:22:36.439
to google it at some point google him or then

883
01:22:37.359 --> 01:22:43.720
the different comedians I've mentioned. So, the first time I

884
01:22:43.760 --> 01:22:50.640
saw Tim Vine was an open act evening and he

885
01:22:50.720 --> 01:22:57.479
got laughs, but the comedians were not happy because he

886
01:22:57.600 --> 01:23:03.960
was doing he did some old jokes. What's his name?

887
01:23:04.119 --> 01:23:07.960
Just like that that comedian he did, So he did

888
01:23:08.000 --> 01:23:10.560
some old jokes and some of the comedians are being

889
01:23:10.600 --> 01:23:15.399
really vicious to him or about him rather, and it

890
01:23:15.439 --> 01:23:17.920
was it was his first time on stage, like come on,

891
01:23:18.800 --> 01:23:20.840
maybe he's not his very first time, but his first

892
01:23:20.920 --> 01:23:25.279
sort of thing. And he went away and he came

893
01:23:25.319 --> 01:23:31.319
back with his own stuff, but Tommy Cooper, but they

894
01:23:31.319 --> 01:23:34.880
didn't realize what he was doing was he was He

895
01:23:35.079 --> 01:23:41.960
showed that he had star ability, that he had to

896
01:23:41.960 --> 01:23:44.760
be able to stand in front of an audience talking

897
01:23:44.800 --> 01:23:51.279
into a camera a microphone. Is it might not be

898
01:23:51.399 --> 01:23:56.199
quite as easy as it looks. I'm just going to

899
01:23:56.279 --> 01:23:58.039
say that a lot, there's a lot of people would

900
01:23:58.119 --> 01:24:04.439
not just can't do it, wouldn't ever even attempted. So

901
01:24:04.680 --> 01:24:07.640
he obviously showed that he had he had the bottle

902
01:24:07.680 --> 01:24:10.760
to do it, and then he went away and he

903
01:24:10.840 --> 01:24:14.800
came back and he started getting good and yeah. Three.

904
01:24:14.880 --> 01:24:18.079
I got two memories of him after that. Remember once

905
01:24:18.279 --> 01:24:21.600
he said to me, I was in the comedy club

906
01:24:21.600 --> 01:24:26.520
and he said, the comedy store are going to give

907
01:24:26.560 --> 01:24:29.720
me some gigs. I got an interview with them to

908
01:24:29.760 --> 01:24:32.119
do a gig there, and I told them that I've

909
01:24:32.159 --> 01:24:34.520
decided because he was I think he was still working

910
01:24:35.479 --> 01:24:37.000
while he was doing a comedy at that at this

911
01:24:37.039 --> 01:24:39.119
point he had a job and he said, I'm going

912
01:24:39.199 --> 01:24:41.800
to give up my job. I can hear his voice now,

913
01:24:41.960 --> 01:24:43.960
said I'm want to give up my job and I

914
01:24:43.960 --> 01:24:48.520
want to do comedy full time and I want to

915
01:24:48.560 --> 01:24:52.199
put everything into it and I will be successful. And

916
01:24:52.239 --> 01:24:55.560
he said to me, that's what he told the person

917
01:24:55.560 --> 01:24:57.600
at the comedy store, the owner of the comedy store.

918
01:24:58.600 --> 01:25:07.000
And he did and he did, and he was another

919
01:25:07.119 --> 01:25:10.000
memory I've had of him. And this was probably before

920
01:25:10.119 --> 01:25:16.039
that conversation. We both did. We both did this gigav together.

921
01:25:16.239 --> 01:25:19.279
It was a middle of nowhere. It really was right

922
01:25:19.319 --> 01:25:26.079
in the sticks kind of Middlesex area. If you've got Middlesex, Hertfordshire, Essex,

923
01:25:26.720 --> 01:25:29.840
all these little areas that are like outside of London

924
01:25:30.800 --> 01:25:33.119
and you can end up in the middle of like

925
01:25:33.680 --> 01:25:37.000
in a place that there's nothing around, like one pub,

926
01:25:38.119 --> 01:25:40.800
six houses and a post box, you know, it's like

927
01:25:41.720 --> 01:25:44.640
and a train stop. So people might live there and

928
01:25:44.680 --> 01:25:47.600
get the train into London, but there's nothing to do

929
01:25:47.680 --> 01:25:49.680
when they're home a part of and be at home.

930
01:25:50.279 --> 01:25:55.119
There's nothing there, and some people wanted to they like that,

931
01:25:56.159 --> 01:25:58.159
and it's a little bit like here. Really, I guess

932
01:25:58.279 --> 01:26:03.439
this is probably like that. Thinking about it. Anyway, we're

933
01:26:03.479 --> 01:26:05.159
in the middle of this place, in the middle of nowhere,

934
01:26:05.159 --> 01:26:08.439
and with it at this venue. I think it was

935
01:26:08.479 --> 01:26:13.760
like an arts theater or arts center, unless it was

936
01:26:13.840 --> 01:26:18.239
upstairs in a pub. Anyway, Tim Vine was doing a

937
01:26:18.319 --> 01:26:27.279
comparing so he came on. He didn't like it. They

938
01:26:27.279 --> 01:26:31.520
didn't like him, so he introduced the first act. He

939
01:26:31.640 --> 01:26:38.920
came on again, audience didn't like him. I did my act.

940
01:26:39.560 --> 01:26:40.960
I don't even know if I was on, I probably

941
01:26:41.000 --> 01:26:44.680
was on. He came on again, audience didn't like him.

942
01:26:46.079 --> 01:26:50.640
Third act like another short one, and he if and

943
01:26:50.720 --> 01:26:53.560
we were just laughing because they just didn't like they'd

944
01:26:53.680 --> 01:26:56.359
really like, were hostile towards him, and he was doing

945
01:26:56.399 --> 01:26:59.800
exactly the same as you always ever did, which normally

946
01:26:59.880 --> 01:27:03.279
was he's really successful because it was a very likable person.

947
01:27:04.720 --> 01:27:07.760
So what he did is he came back on stage

948
01:27:09.239 --> 01:27:17.359
wearing a plant pot on his head. There was a

949
01:27:17.359 --> 01:27:20.319
proper plant pot, mud everywhere all over the place, all

950
01:27:20.319 --> 01:27:28.960
over his head, dripping down his face, and it got

951
01:27:29.039 --> 01:27:34.680
everyone's attention and he said, oh, that last compare was crap.

952
01:27:34.720 --> 01:27:38.840
When he and they laughed, and from that second they

953
01:27:38.880 --> 01:27:43.479
loved him. And he didn't do any different material than

954
01:27:43.479 --> 01:27:46.159
what he would have done anyway. You know, he just

955
01:27:46.199 --> 01:27:49.079
carried on with his act and they loved him, but

956
01:27:49.119 --> 01:27:55.920
they didn't like him before. Fickle, very It's very strange

957
01:27:56.640 --> 01:28:01.279
how that can happen. I've actually seen more than once

958
01:28:02.680 --> 01:28:06.600
a comedian go on stage do exactly the same act.

959
01:28:07.279 --> 01:28:11.439
This is someone Earl Oakin and he was I don't

960
01:28:11.439 --> 01:28:15.000
know if he's still doing it, but he looked a

961
01:28:15.000 --> 01:28:22.760
bit like Roy Orbison at the glasses and he had

962
01:28:23.039 --> 01:28:28.680
a guitar. It was like a middle aged man and

963
01:28:28.720 --> 01:28:36.880
he was singing. And I've never seen him before. This

964
01:28:36.960 --> 01:28:39.000
is the first time I'd ever seen no. I had

965
01:28:39.039 --> 01:28:42.000
seen him once before at the Comedy Store, but this

966
01:28:42.079 --> 01:28:43.880
is the first time, you know, I hadn't seen him

967
01:28:43.920 --> 01:28:49.760
for years and years. So he came on stage, sat down,

968
01:28:50.119 --> 01:28:54.359
and people were literally booing him, and I think someone

969
01:28:54.399 --> 01:28:57.840
even chucked stuff on the stage. They did not like

970
01:28:57.920 --> 01:29:01.840
him at all. This is the Friday night and he

971
01:29:01.960 --> 01:29:05.920
got off after probably about ten minutes, didn't do his

972
01:29:06.000 --> 01:29:12.640
full set, and they were really hostile to him. There's

973
01:29:12.640 --> 01:29:14.640
about two hundred people in the audience. It wasn't like

974
01:29:14.680 --> 01:29:17.760
a huge amount of people, but still it wasn't nice.

975
01:29:17.880 --> 01:29:24.159
It wasn't a nice atmosphere. The Saturday night, he still

976
01:29:24.199 --> 01:29:29.439
turned up to do his gig and possibly had one

977
01:29:29.439 --> 01:29:32.399
of the best performances I've ever seen any comedian have

978
01:29:33.760 --> 01:29:40.039
as far as an audience reaction standing ovation after standing ovation.

979
01:29:40.560 --> 01:29:46.560
Now I'm exaggerating for effect, but it really was an

980
01:29:46.640 --> 01:29:50.520
amazing gig. The audience loved him from the second they

981
01:29:50.560 --> 01:29:57.880
saw him, and they laughed at everything. And this was

982
01:29:57.920 --> 01:30:01.000
a season pro that had probably been doing for twenty years.

983
01:30:01.840 --> 01:30:08.239
He knew every sound, he did, every facial expression. He'd

984
01:30:08.239 --> 01:30:14.039
probably done hundreds and hundreds of times before to perfect

985
01:30:14.159 --> 01:30:19.520
the act. And it was a great act, really funny.

986
01:30:20.720 --> 01:30:23.800
But the first night, Friday night, they weren't having it.

987
01:30:24.319 --> 01:30:34.039
Saturday night like a different audience. But still, and the

988
01:30:34.079 --> 01:30:36.800
weird thing is I found myself being swayed by the

989
01:30:36.840 --> 01:30:42.039
audience because I watched both performances, and he did look

990
01:30:42.119 --> 01:30:46.600
rubbish on the Friday night. On the sad Saturday night,

991
01:30:46.600 --> 01:30:52.119
he looked amazing, but he wasn't doing anything different. I've

992
01:30:52.159 --> 01:30:55.319
no doubt that being bowed and showered at would have

993
01:30:55.319 --> 01:30:59.560
affected his performance of Friday Night, but you know the

994
01:30:59.680 --> 01:31:05.319
start if he was doing everything the same. And he's

995
01:31:05.359 --> 01:31:09.760
one of the best performances I've ever seen on stage.

996
01:31:09.760 --> 01:31:10.640
And I've seen.

997
01:31:13.039 --> 01:31:13.760
I don't know.

998
01:31:16.239 --> 01:31:20.720
How many have I seen, thousands, probably if you include

999
01:31:20.720 --> 01:31:23.000
all the ones I see on YouTube and stuff since,

1000
01:31:23.079 --> 01:31:27.279
but thousands on stage live, even if it was like

1001
01:31:27.319 --> 01:31:32.359
only five or ten minutes slot. I've seen a lot of. Yeah,

1002
01:31:32.640 --> 01:31:36.279
over that twenty year period of sort of going to

1003
01:31:36.399 --> 01:31:43.439
comedy clubs, ten really intensive years, and then I'm still

1004
01:31:43.479 --> 01:31:54.279
going back during the following ten years. Yeah. In fact,

1005
01:31:54.279 --> 01:31:59.760
I was still involved in twenty sixteen something my friend did,

1006
01:31:59.800 --> 01:32:04.560
but I just just didn't want to travel to London anymore.

1007
01:32:04.560 --> 01:32:07.920
I just didn't fill up to it, which is a

1008
01:32:07.960 --> 01:32:10.159
shame I kind of wish I had.

1009
01:32:10.239 --> 01:32:10.399
Now.

1010
01:32:11.039 --> 01:32:18.039
I went a couple of times I did help out.

1011
01:32:18.079 --> 01:32:25.439
I did some volunteering at a local center. I don't

1012
01:32:25.439 --> 01:32:29.600
know what it's called, but it's like a venue. I

1013
01:32:29.600 --> 01:32:34.039
think it's a charity, but it's a venue where that music, dancing,

1014
01:32:35.119 --> 01:32:39.560
stuff like that, and I volunteered there for a few times,

1015
01:32:40.359 --> 01:32:44.560
but again I couldn't one day, I couldn't face going

1016
01:32:44.600 --> 01:32:48.079
in and kind of messed up for myself. But I

1017
01:32:48.079 --> 01:32:52.479
saw a couple of comedians there and it was so

1018
01:32:52.640 --> 01:32:55.960
different to see it commit For me, it was so

1019
01:32:56.000 --> 01:33:00.479
different to see a comedian on stage with an all audience,

1020
01:33:01.039 --> 01:33:05.800
especially probably more than two hundred people as well, but

1021
01:33:06.439 --> 01:33:09.880
I've seen audiences of much more than two hundred, but

1022
01:33:10.800 --> 01:33:15.119
it's just not being in London. To see a stand

1023
01:33:15.159 --> 01:33:22.079
up comedian outside of London, it was just weird but

1024
01:33:22.319 --> 01:33:32.600
so funny, and I never really understood why people laugh

1025
01:33:32.720 --> 01:33:35.920
as much as they do sometimes at comedy gig like

1026
01:33:36.039 --> 01:33:42.039
the audience. I didn't understand it as an audience member

1027
01:33:42.439 --> 01:33:45.680
because I never really felt like an audience member. Really,

1028
01:33:47.119 --> 01:33:49.479
I have been thousands of times, but not really because

1029
01:33:49.479 --> 01:33:55.000
I was kind of either part of the show or

1030
01:33:55.119 --> 01:33:57.920
just hanging around with the other comedians, you know, So

1031
01:33:57.960 --> 01:34:02.600
I was kind of there or working, but we had

1032
01:34:02.640 --> 01:34:08.760
a by second insurance job. We had a night out.

1033
01:34:09.319 --> 01:34:13.399
Everyone went and it was an ipswitch football ground BlimE me.

1034
01:34:13.439 --> 01:34:17.000
It was Yeah, had a night out and they put

1035
01:34:17.000 --> 01:34:22.720
on a comedy show. It was hilarious, and there was

1036
01:34:22.760 --> 01:34:26.319
comedians that I'd already seen before. They hadn't No one

1037
01:34:26.960 --> 01:34:28.880
think they didn't see me because I was in the order.

1038
01:34:28.920 --> 01:34:31.199
I was like in the dark in the crowd. But

1039
01:34:32.880 --> 01:34:35.319
it was so weird because they were making fun of

1040
01:34:35.359 --> 01:34:40.039
people that I worked with. It made it funnier. So

1041
01:34:40.159 --> 01:34:42.960
their ad libs and they're put downs were way more

1042
01:34:43.000 --> 01:34:47.520
funnier as an audience member knowing the person that were

1043
01:34:47.520 --> 01:34:52.159
put down or putting down than if it had just

1044
01:34:52.199 --> 01:34:54.680
been in a like a normal crowd of people. I

1045
01:34:54.680 --> 01:35:00.920
didn't know. It was hilarious. It's plus I suppose I

1046
01:35:00.960 --> 01:35:04.159
was drinking as well. But it was great, great night,

1047
01:35:06.359 --> 01:35:08.680
just like yeah. Still a big comedy fan.

1048
01:35:08.800 --> 01:35:09.079
Really.

1049
01:35:13.680 --> 01:35:19.159
So this is my Sunday Sunday chit chat. I don't

1050
01:35:19.199 --> 01:35:23.960
know what I've been talking about, so if I'm gonna go,

1051
01:35:24.520 --> 01:35:30.640
I have to take this one out for walk. So

1052
01:35:30.800 --> 01:35:36.000
thank you for listening. Tomorrow I will do Monday's boarding

1053
01:35:36.000 --> 01:35:42.680
objects Tuesday, I will do Tuesday's yeah, what is it?

1054
01:35:42.800 --> 01:35:48.279
Trivia Tuesday? Wednesday, hopefully I'll do Whisper Wednesday, and then

1055
01:35:48.279 --> 01:35:53.760
i'll do a queue I Friday again. Now just let

1056
01:35:53.800 --> 01:35:57.479
you know if you're still awake. My neighbor opposite me

1057
01:35:57.640 --> 01:36:05.039
is having his bathroom fitted either tomorrow or Tuesday. I

1058
01:36:05.079 --> 01:36:11.000
think it's tomorrow actually, which means there's going to be

1059
01:36:13.119 --> 01:36:17.520
a lot of noise. So if for any reason I

1060
01:36:17.560 --> 01:36:20.680
can't make a recording on any of those days or

1061
01:36:20.720 --> 01:36:25.279
all of those days, just you know, please forgive me,

1062
01:36:28.279 --> 01:36:31.520
because there's only so much noise I can allow when

1063
01:36:31.560 --> 01:36:36.800
I'm doing a recording in the background, and there's going

1064
01:36:36.840 --> 01:36:38.680
to be a lot of door slamming and stuff like

1065
01:36:38.720 --> 01:36:41.640
that as well, which means Old Vinny here will be

1066
01:36:41.680 --> 01:36:46.680
barking quite a lot. So you know this, I've got

1067
01:36:46.720 --> 01:36:50.159
a maneuver myself around this whole thing. But I would

1068
01:36:50.199 --> 01:36:53.439
definitely do a Q and A Friday, even if i'd

1069
01:36:53.479 --> 01:37:02.159
do it in the evening on Friday. But I'll try

1070
01:37:02.199 --> 01:37:06.279
and do normal recordings this week if it's all possible.

1071
01:37:07.960 --> 01:37:12.399
So thank you for listening. Remember to be kind to yourself,

1072
01:37:12.720 --> 01:37:17.560
because you do deserve to be happy. And be gentle

1073
01:37:17.600 --> 01:37:23.760
with yourself, because you do deserve to feel safe, lots

1074
01:37:23.760 --> 01:37:45.039
of love bye, relax in a more deep and meaningful way,

1075
01:37:47.520 --> 01:37:52.720
maybe in a way that can not just allow you

1076
01:37:53.079 --> 01:38:02.560
to feel calmer now and through out the time we

1077
01:38:02.720 --> 01:38:11.000
spend together here, not just relaxed at the end of

1078
01:38:11.039 --> 01:38:15.600
the recording when it's finished and you can enjoy that

1079
01:38:16.159 --> 01:38:33.039
sense of comfort and peace, but also I think it

1080
01:38:33.039 --> 01:38:48.840
would be nice to have those feelings of relaxation continue

1081
01:38:49.119 --> 01:39:00.960
for longer after the recording has ended, so that you

1082
01:39:01.039 --> 01:39:13.439
can still benefit from listening to my voice, maybe in

1083
01:39:13.520 --> 01:39:26.119
a few hours time, perhaps tomorrow, and then by listening regularly,

1084
01:39:29.199 --> 01:39:33.840
especially if you find like some people do, and myself

1085
01:39:33.880 --> 01:39:38.439
as well. I sometimes I find one particular recording that

1086
01:39:38.640 --> 01:39:47.359
really resonates with me, and I'll just listen to it

1087
01:39:47.399 --> 01:40:00.239
over and over again every morning, every evening. There was

1088
01:40:00.319 --> 01:40:07.439
this recording from We're going back to about nineteen ninety nine.

1089
01:40:07.720 --> 01:40:13.159
It wasn't hypnosis, but it was a guided visualization, so

1090
01:40:13.159 --> 01:40:20.159
it kind of was hypnosis really, and I managed to

1091
01:40:20.239 --> 01:40:23.760
find it again and it still has the same effect

1092
01:40:24.239 --> 01:40:35.880
on me, And part of it was the person's voice

1093
01:40:36.279 --> 01:40:46.520
relaxed me just felt so peaceful, and I'd look forward

1094
01:40:46.920 --> 01:40:54.560
to listening to her in the morning and in the evening.

1095
01:41:00.079 --> 01:41:09.039
And I knew before even pressing the play button that

1096
01:41:09.359 --> 01:41:13.760
since I've done that, pressed the play button. This is

1097
01:41:14.119 --> 01:41:25.119
in the days of CD players press the play button.

1098
01:41:28.520 --> 01:41:31.359
In fact, it might have even been a tape tape recorder.

1099
01:41:32.640 --> 01:41:41.039
I'd lie down on the bed and then even without

1100
01:41:41.560 --> 01:41:54.520
necessarily listening to her words because I had to memorized. Really,

1101
01:41:59.199 --> 01:42:05.199
it was as if my body knew exactly what to do,

1102
01:42:09.960 --> 01:42:31.800
and the muscles just almost went into automatic relaxation, and

1103
01:42:31.960 --> 01:42:45.600
I remember my mind would slow down. Now. Now, I

1104
01:42:46.000 --> 01:42:52.239
was listening to this recording in the early days of

1105
01:42:52.319 --> 01:43:03.039
learning hypnosis, and long before I ever made any videos

1106
01:43:03.159 --> 01:43:07.880
or audio recordings myself, because I didn't start doing that

1107
01:43:08.000 --> 01:43:22.479
till two thousand and six, I knew, I knew how

1108
01:43:24.199 --> 01:43:38.000
helpful I found being able to just let go, to

1109
01:43:38.119 --> 01:43:43.319
have that trust in the person that I'm listening to,

1110
01:43:50.960 --> 01:43:59.039
knowing that it's going to be just as relaxing, if

1111
01:43:59.119 --> 01:44:08.119
not more so. Yeah, each time you hear my voice,

1112
01:44:08.439 --> 01:44:20.079
you may feel the same. Some people have been listening

1113
01:44:20.119 --> 01:44:34.079
to me for over a decade, maybe not solidly, obviously,

1114
01:44:34.079 --> 01:44:40.560
not twenty four hours a day, but maybe people come back.

1115
01:44:42.399 --> 01:44:56.079
Some people may be listen every day. That's something that

1116
01:44:56.159 --> 01:45:09.159
I do Wohild You may not realize by listening is

1117
01:45:13.239 --> 01:45:27.600
when I record these recordings. Now, for example, I also

1118
01:45:29.079 --> 01:45:40.319
am affected by the words that I say. So if

1119
01:45:40.359 --> 01:45:49.479
I said to you, focus on your feet, notice your

1120
01:45:49.560 --> 01:46:01.520
feet relaxing, I will be focusing on my feet. I

1121
01:46:01.600 --> 01:46:19.399
will be noticing my feet relaxing. If I said, focus

1122
01:46:19.439 --> 01:46:27.800
on your hands, and maybe notice the difference between each hand,

1123
01:46:31.439 --> 01:46:38.199
perhaps notice the the air in the room, the temperature

1124
01:46:38.279 --> 01:46:50.159
of the room. On the backs of your hands. You

1125
01:46:50.239 --> 01:46:54.319
may start to notice what almost feels like a very

1126
01:46:54.479 --> 01:47:02.840
light breeze, even though there may not be any type

1127
01:47:02.880 --> 01:47:15.800
of breeze at all where you are right now. And

1128
01:47:15.880 --> 01:47:27.079
as you become aware of your hands, I'm also aware

1129
01:47:29.760 --> 01:47:38.359
of how relaxed my hands our feeling.

1130
01:47:39.760 --> 01:47:47.880
Now.

1131
01:47:54.720 --> 01:48:01.920
And when it comes to potentially drifting off sleep, which

1132
01:48:02.000 --> 01:48:16.760
may be the reason you're listening, I also feel drowsy

1133
01:48:18.359 --> 01:48:31.840
when I make these recordings. I also notice my mind drifting.

1134
01:48:39.720 --> 01:48:52.319
In fact, at times I've actually fallen asleep without even noticing,

1135
01:48:57.199 --> 01:49:06.319
and then I carry on talking. And it's only when

1136
01:49:06.640 --> 01:49:15.720
I listen back to do the editing. I hear snoring,

1137
01:49:17.640 --> 01:49:24.920
and I think, I don't remember snoring. I remember talking.

1138
01:49:27.720 --> 01:49:34.920
Was this snoring was a pig turned up? That's why

1139
01:49:34.920 --> 01:49:42.680
I sound like when I snare and I get really

1140
01:49:42.800 --> 01:49:56.279
into the whole experience. I don't know how you feel,

1141
01:50:02.439 --> 01:50:12.920
how relaxed you feel in your feet, how relaxed you

1142
01:50:13.159 --> 01:50:37.000
feel in your hands. I have noticed more and more

1143
01:50:40.319 --> 01:50:53.079
that the more relaxed, deeper level of comfort you feel,

1144
01:50:56.680 --> 01:51:12.800
the easier your breathing becomes. It's almost like that additional

1145
01:51:16.000 --> 01:51:36.960
muscle relaxation. So this allows you the breve easier without

1146
01:51:38.439 --> 01:52:09.399
necessarily focusing on your breath. However, being able to notice

1147
01:52:09.800 --> 01:52:39.880
the ease in which you breathe so naturally. You breathe

1148
01:52:40.119 --> 01:53:23.800
so very easily and smoothly. Whenever I imagine my breathing improving,

1149
01:53:29.479 --> 01:53:42.840
when I've got my eyes closed, I tend to visualize

1150
01:53:44.960 --> 01:53:59.479
a beautiful field with trees and flowers producing all that

1151
01:54:01.359 --> 01:54:34.159
life giving oxygen. It feels nice to, if nothing else,

1152
01:54:37.359 --> 01:55:11.479
just taking some time away from everything, enjoying that feeling

1153
01:55:11.880 --> 01:56:02.479
of peace serenity with a joyful heart. Time seems to

1154
01:56:02.640 --> 01:56:37.760
just drip by so very slowly, relaxed, so deeply peaceful,

1155
01:56:47.680 --> 01:57:56.000
completely unattached to any thoughts whatsoever in this moment, completely free,

1156
01:57:56.920 --> 01:58:48.319
noticing that your mind has slowed down. Slowed down because

1157
01:58:48.479 --> 01:59:17.079
nothing really requires your attention. You can enjoy the physical

1158
01:59:17.399 --> 01:59:29.079
sensations of allowing the stress to rip out of your body,

1159
01:59:35.520 --> 01:59:58.560
to appear out of every part of your body, and

1160
01:59:58.880 --> 02:00:32.359

You spy from your brain all the way down the

02:09:25.760 --> 02:09:36.439

1197
02:32:24.280 --> 02:32:35.559
are feeling more relaxed, even though I've not purposely focused

1198
02:32:36.000 --> 02:32:44.120
your mind upon that sense of physical comfort that is

1199
02:32:44.360 --> 02:32:53.600
growing within you throughout your body, and your mind starts

1200
02:32:53.680 --> 02:33:03.239
to slow down, and that could be almost in recognition

1201
02:33:03.840 --> 02:33:17.680
of I guess my speech not being particularly fast and

1202
02:33:17.879 --> 02:33:28.719
things just generally feel calmer. Just by listening to my voice,

1203
02:33:31.799 --> 02:33:38.760
you give yourself an opportunity to take a break from

1204
02:33:38.799 --> 02:33:45.319
the day, take a break from your life as it is,

1205
02:33:48.760 --> 02:33:56.360
and to give yourself a rest, giving yourself permission to

1206
02:33:56.479 --> 02:34:01.719
take some time off and to allow your body to

1207
02:34:01.879 --> 02:34:11.559
relax and allow your mind to slow down, which in

1208
02:34:11.760 --> 02:34:19.520
turn releases the tension and it stresses that you had

1209
02:34:19.600 --> 02:34:29.319
in your body. It's almost as if the parts of

1210
02:34:29.399 --> 02:34:41.319
your body just open up, allowing the negativity out and

1211
02:34:41.479 --> 02:34:49.879
at the same time replacing that negativity with positive heathing energy,

1212
02:34:53.000 --> 02:34:57.600
which then fills your body up and your mind to

1213
02:34:59.239 --> 02:35:17.639
also starts to appreciate those feelings of increasing confidence, an

1214
02:35:17.680 --> 02:35:34.799
almost uplifting feeling, positive healing, an energy that spreads through

1215
02:35:34.879 --> 02:35:46.239
your body like a wave of comfort and all this comes,

1216
02:35:46.440 --> 02:35:58.399
and just allowing yourself a few minutes, maybe half an hour,

1217
02:35:58.920 --> 02:36:03.600
however long you want to to be, to just rest

1218
02:36:09.040 --> 02:36:17.840
and allow your mind and your body to almost reset

1219
02:36:18.559 --> 02:36:37.200
itself to the settings of comfort and relaxation, calmness, which

1220
02:36:37.280 --> 02:36:50.440
allows more room for feelings of pleasure and happiness to

1221
02:36:50.719 --> 02:37:00.159
move around your body and into your mind, almost as

1222
02:37:00.200 --> 02:37:09.280
if your mind and your body are sinking together, almost

1223
02:37:09.680 --> 02:37:23.639
mirroring each other with that growing positivity and calmness, And

1224
02:37:23.799 --> 02:37:31.079
it feels nice. It really does feel nice to know

1225
02:37:31.360 --> 02:37:40.239
that you are the one that has allowed yourself to

1226
02:37:40.479 --> 02:37:54.479
feel more comfort and to experience more of this deep

1227
02:37:54.920 --> 02:38:09.360
relaxation spreading through out your body. And as I focus

1228
02:38:10.920 --> 02:38:16.680
on each part of your body, you can notice that

1229
02:38:16.920 --> 02:38:31.440
that part becomes even more relaxed just by focusing on it.

1230
02:38:33.959 --> 02:38:43.639
It becomes even more calm and comfortable just by focusing.

1231
02:38:47.680 --> 02:38:53.440
And as I move down your body, starting at your head,

1232
02:38:56.159 --> 02:39:04.280
the parts that you've already focused on willtenue to relax deeply,

1233
02:39:07.079 --> 02:39:13.120
and those parts that we've not yet focused on or

1234
02:39:13.280 --> 02:39:25.040
just automatically release any remain intention in anticipation of even

1235
02:39:25.479 --> 02:39:38.040
more comfort about to come. Now I'm going to start

1236
02:39:38.120 --> 02:39:45.159
by focusing on your forehead. Just being aware of the

1237
02:39:45.440 --> 02:39:55.680
feelings of your forehead and any background sounds like mister

1238
02:39:55.959 --> 02:40:01.959
Herbert Opigeon can just allow you feel even more relaxed.

1239
02:40:05.879 --> 02:40:11.959
Just means you're in the moment. This isn't this isn't

1240
02:40:12.000 --> 02:40:20.000
a sterile environment. This is the world. I live in

1241
02:40:20.079 --> 02:40:32.360
the countryside, so there's lots of nature sounds around. So

1242
02:40:32.479 --> 02:40:37.559
as you focus on your forehead, just notice how it

1243
02:40:37.879 --> 02:40:47.760
becomes even more relaxed as you focus only on my

1244
02:40:48.040 --> 02:40:57.600
voice and that part of your body. Moving down to

1245
02:40:57.719 --> 02:41:10.639
your eyes, focusing on your eyes, noticing how your eyelids

1246
02:41:10.920 --> 02:41:17.920
feel so heavy yet so light at the same time,

1247
02:41:21.319 --> 02:41:31.959
and all the muscles around your eyes relaxing completely. Moving

1248
02:41:32.079 --> 02:41:39.239
your focus down to your mouth, your lips, your tongue,

1249
02:41:40.479 --> 02:41:48.440
your teeth, and your gums, the whole of your mouth relaxing,

1250
02:41:51.959 --> 02:42:02.200
calm and loose. As you focus now on your jaw,

1251
02:42:05.239 --> 02:42:08.799
not just the parts of your jaw near your mouth

1252
02:42:09.600 --> 02:42:13.920
and your chin, but all the way up the size

1253
02:42:13.959 --> 02:42:20.799
of your face to your ears, a hole of your jaw,

1254
02:42:23.440 --> 02:42:50.520
feeding more relaxed and calm. Focusing on your neck, the

1255
02:42:50.680 --> 02:42:58.159
front of your neck and your throat relaxing and loose

1256
02:42:58.920 --> 02:43:08.520
and calm. The sides of your neck, the right and

1257
02:43:08.760 --> 02:43:21.360
left side of your neck relax and loose and calm.

1258
02:43:27.760 --> 02:43:34.399
And now the back of your neck. Focusing on the

1259
02:43:34.719 --> 02:43:45.120
back of your neck, letting go of any tension that

1260
02:43:45.319 --> 02:43:54.159
may have been there before, and enjoying that sense of

1261
02:43:55.200 --> 02:44:05.840
increasing comfort and relief that you can experience in the

1262
02:44:05.959 --> 02:44:18.200
back of your neck. Moving down your back and moving

1263
02:44:18.479 --> 02:44:22.840
either side of your spine right from the top of

1264
02:44:22.920 --> 02:44:28.440
your back all the way down to the bottom of

1265
02:44:28.559 --> 02:44:45.520
your back, down to your lower back. And as you

1266
02:44:45.760 --> 02:44:53.079
move up and down your spine, you can feel the

1267
02:44:53.280 --> 02:45:08.319
muscles either side of your spine relaxing even more. And

1268
02:45:08.479 --> 02:45:15.159
as those muscles relax, that sense of comfort starts to

1269
02:45:15.399 --> 02:45:25.799
spread outwards from your spine into both sides of your back,

1270
02:45:29.600 --> 02:45:33.280
the top of your back, the middle and your lower back.

1271
02:45:36.840 --> 02:45:43.959
And as you scan gently and slowly up and down

1272
02:45:44.159 --> 02:45:49.200
your back, there's the muscles in the top of your

1273
02:45:49.319 --> 02:45:59.239
back relax and become looser. The muscles in the middle

1274
02:45:59.280 --> 02:46:06.040
of your back kay also seem to just almost divide

1275
02:46:06.440 --> 02:46:19.639
from each other, separating and almost melting, And in your

1276
02:46:19.760 --> 02:46:26.840
lower back it seems to be an extra special feeling

1277
02:46:30.840 --> 02:46:42.319
of comfort. The spreads into your hips, so down your

1278
02:46:42.440 --> 02:46:50.399
lower back, into your hips, into the area where your

1279
02:46:50.559 --> 02:46:59.520
cosis are, and into your buttocks, and all those muscles

1280
02:46:59.639 --> 02:47:01.719
that spread.

1281
02:47:03.920 --> 02:47:05.200
Bring your lower back.

1282
02:47:07.440 --> 02:47:19.680
Into your hip area, start to melt, start to really

1283
02:47:20.879 --> 02:47:31.719
let go. I don't even nowhere about to focus on

1284
02:47:31.879 --> 02:47:40.920
your shoulders. Your back and your spine will continue to

1285
02:47:41.159 --> 02:47:59.440
let go, continue to relax so calmly, And as you

1286
02:47:59.600 --> 02:48:05.520
focus on your shoulders, you may notice that they're already

1287
02:48:07.360 --> 02:48:35.879
feeding really loose, they're already feeding calm, and they're feeding

1288
02:48:40.079 --> 02:48:48.399
those muscles. Then move from your neck into your shoulders.

1289
02:48:54.959 --> 02:49:24.360
Feel so soft and gentle, so smooth and calm, and

1290
02:49:24.559 --> 02:49:37.399
the feeling in your shoulders seens to spread deep into

1291
02:49:37.520 --> 02:49:47.879
your shoulders, that sense of relaxation not just traveling deeply

1292
02:49:48.319 --> 02:50:05.280
into your muscles, but also relaxing the bones and moving

1293
02:50:05.399 --> 02:50:13.639
all the way to underneath your arms, relaxing that whole

1294
02:50:13.840 --> 02:50:18.840
area between the tops of your shoulders and underneath your

1295
02:50:19.040 --> 02:50:38.799
arms healing. You feel so relaxed and comfortable in your shoulders,

1296
02:50:42.360 --> 02:51:04.719
which sends that deep healing message into your arms. You

1297
02:51:04.879 --> 02:51:10.600
may feel almost as if your arms are not even there,

1298
02:51:12.079 --> 02:51:34.000
because they're so relaxed, so deeply relaxed, so so calm,

1299
02:51:49.120 --> 02:52:10.959
so loose, not feeling spreading all the way down your arms,

1300
02:52:13.719 --> 02:52:43.760
two elbows, including your elbows circumforts, spreads or away into wrists,

1301
02:52:46.600 --> 02:53:01.680
your forearments and your wrists feeling so heavy. Yet at

So peaceful in your hands, there's a sense of real peace.

so peaceful, cyclm so peace for re sin, peace for

1313
03:03:51.040 --> 03:04:06.440
s come, allowing that deep relaxation to spread your chest

1314
03:04:06.799 --> 03:04:38.360
and your stomach, letting go of everything. So I'm gonna

1315
03:04:38.399 --> 03:04:50.239
start counting down now, from twenty down to one. You

1316
03:04:50.319 --> 03:04:53.760
can imagine in a way it's like just walking down

1317
03:04:53.959 --> 03:04:59.639
some steps, and each step or twenty steps, and each

1318
03:04:59.760 --> 03:05:09.879
step step represents a level of comfort. Each step represents

1319
03:05:12.479 --> 03:05:24.920
a deepening of that comfort, and the fervies you walk

1320
03:05:25.000 --> 03:05:30.719
down those steps that the deeper and more relaxed you feel.

1321
03:05:37.440 --> 03:08:12.239
So starting with number twenty twenty nineteen, eighteen seventeen sixsting

1322
03:09:27.840 --> 03:16:36.879
eight fourty four see too well five eight nine hey

1323
03:16:37.440 --> 03:20:30.200
seven tho five.

1324
03:21:48.879 --> 03:24:09.200
Four two.

1325
03:25:27.200 --> 03:25:27.440
One.

1326
03:26:17.040 --> 03:26:17.719
And now.

1327
03:26:22.120 --> 03:26:34.399
As you focus on your eyes, we're going to count

1328
03:26:34.520 --> 03:26:46.319
down from ten dout to one, focusing just on your eyes,

1329
03:26:50.040 --> 03:26:58.559
your eyelids, the muscles around your eyes, your eye walls themselves,

1330
03:27:00.120 --> 03:27:17.079
our whole area that makes up your eye. And as

1331
03:27:17.200 --> 03:27:25.719
we count down from ten down to one, whilst focusing

1332
03:27:26.000 --> 03:27:41.360
on your eyes, you'll become twice is relaxed with each

1333
03:27:41.799 --> 03:27:54.239
number counting down that you may find the all you

1334
03:27:54.520 --> 03:28:03.360
want to do is just drift off to sleep. And

1335
03:28:03.559 --> 03:28:10.079
if that's what you want, then just allow yourself to

1336
03:28:10.239 --> 03:28:24.840
do that. Now, focusing on your eyes, I'm going to

1337
03:28:25.000 --> 03:28:30.239
begin counting down from ten down to one.

1338
03:28:34.239 --> 03:28:34.920
Right now.

1339
03:28:43.319 --> 03:37:41.399
Ten nine eight seven four five four three two one.

1340
03:37:47.680 --> 03:37:58.159
So count and down from ten to one.

1341
03:38:00.079 --> 03:38:02.680
And nine.

1342
03:38:04.120 --> 03:38:31.799
Eight seven six five four three two one. And maybe

1343
03:38:31.959 --> 03:38:34.840
that was a bit too quick in order to relax.

1344
03:38:36.079 --> 03:38:40.319
Maybe it's a bit too fast for you to notice

1345
03:38:40.600 --> 03:38:48.639
the calming of your body, maybe even a little bit

1346
03:38:48.719 --> 03:38:52.799
of pressure there, Like you're counting down from ten to one.

1347
03:38:52.920 --> 03:38:56.319
Would you expect me to do man, expect me to

1348
03:38:56.360 --> 03:39:05.920
stick go with floppy just because you're counting down. We

1349
03:39:06.000 --> 03:39:10.000
can try again, but this time I go this lower.

1350
03:39:12.200 --> 03:39:17.079
This time, as you focus on the whole of your

1351
03:39:17.120 --> 03:39:25.479
body before we focus on your legs. Just notice how

1352
03:39:25.600 --> 03:39:39.680
your body does start to feel more relaxed with every

1353
03:39:39.840 --> 03:40:32.280
number that I count down ten nine, eight, seven, six, five, four,

1354
03:40:39.719 --> 03:41:31.200
three two one, And just notice how how you feel generally,

1355
03:41:31.639 --> 03:41:45.959
how your body feels. It's not necessarily even about counting

1356
03:41:46.079 --> 03:41:53.200
down from ten to one. It's that space that you have,

1357
03:41:54.559 --> 03:42:13.000
that space between being active physically or mentally to just

1358
03:42:17.719 --> 03:42:22.920
sitting or lying down and just being there, not doing anything,

1359
03:42:23.120 --> 03:42:29.719
not saying anything, or needing to think about anything. So

1360
03:42:30.440 --> 03:42:33.440
that opens up a space, you know, a bit of

1361
03:42:33.479 --> 03:42:44.479
a space, a gap. And the more I came down

1362
03:42:44.520 --> 03:42:51.920
from ten to one, the bigger that gap becomes. So

1363
03:42:52.040 --> 03:43:04.440
there's that gap of calmness, of comfort, relaxation. It's a

1364
03:43:04.600 --> 03:43:05.600
nice feeling.

1365
03:43:10.799 --> 03:43:12.120
And it moves.

1366
03:43:13.280 --> 03:43:23.200
Those stresses or discomforts physically or emotionally, moves them away.

1367
03:43:29.959 --> 03:43:30.959
Allows you.

1368
03:43:33.639 --> 03:43:34.159
To just.

1369
03:43:37.159 --> 03:43:43.879
Slow down, someone to count again from ten down to one,

1370
03:43:44.319 --> 03:43:54.520
and notice that gap widening, the gap, And as it widens,

1371
03:43:54.600 --> 03:44:00.639
it's almost like the stress and attention falls into the

1372
03:44:00.719 --> 03:44:18.600
gap and gives you that distance, that space.

1373
03:44:20.959 --> 03:44:26.440
Now ten.

1374
03:44:30.760 --> 03:45:57.239
Nine, eight, seven, six, five, four three two.

1375
03:46:15.479 --> 03:46:15.719
One.

1376
03:46:27.280 --> 03:46:31.639
Now, how does your body feel.

1377
03:46:33.600 --> 03:46:33.760
Now?

1378
03:46:46.479 --> 03:47:01.760
Can you notice that the feeling calmer, the feeling more

1379
03:47:02.200 --> 03:47:29.600
relaxed as we now focus on your legs, just your legs.

1380
03:47:45.600 --> 03:48:05.719
We're just gonna start with focusing on your thighs. Of course,

1381
03:48:05.840 --> 03:48:10.719
it's not the most exciting thing to be doing, because

1382
03:48:14.159 --> 03:48:16.840
I'm sure like most of your body is not a

1383
03:48:16.959 --> 03:48:29.360
lot going on right now. Just focusing on the whole

1384
03:48:29.479 --> 03:48:35.920
of your thighs, the tops of your thighs, the sides

1385
03:48:36.040 --> 03:48:43.040
of your thighs, the bottoms of your thighs, your outer thighs,

1386
03:48:43.120 --> 03:48:48.040
and your inner thighs. Basically the whole of your thigh

1387
03:48:48.159 --> 03:48:56.920
that leads into your hip and it goes down to

1388
03:48:57.159 --> 03:49:11.159
your knee joint. Now, this is a big area. It's

1389
03:49:11.200 --> 03:49:16.680
a very heavy area. It's very strong, probably the strongest

1390
03:49:17.680 --> 03:49:30.840
muscles in your body are in your thighs. But I

1391
03:49:30.959 --> 03:49:39.239
don't think we perhaps give enough attention to our thighs.

1392
03:49:45.200 --> 03:49:55.920
Perhaps we don't acknowledge how important our thighs are to

1393
03:49:56.120 --> 03:50:16.760
our lives, how much they actually do for us all

1394
03:50:16.840 --> 03:50:27.280
through our lives. And it may seem to sound really weird,

1395
03:50:27.399 --> 03:50:35.760
but I think that all of our body parts, especially

1396
03:50:35.879 --> 03:50:43.520
our thighs, need some TLC, a bit of love shown,

1397
03:50:44.520 --> 03:51:02.440
a bit of acknowledgement. I thank you gratitude for what

1398
03:51:02.639 --> 03:51:11.719
our thighs do for us. And I know this may

1399
03:51:11.920 --> 03:51:17.600
sound a bit strange. Maybe you think, why am I

1400
03:51:18.360 --> 03:51:21.159
Surely I should be out in the garden hugging a

1401
03:51:21.280 --> 03:51:29.639
tree or something. Well, it's hard to set a microphone

1402
03:51:29.719 --> 03:51:32.760
up on a tree. That's why I'm doing this indoors.

1403
03:51:32.799 --> 03:51:36.280
Otherwise I would be outside hugging a tree. Now I

1404
03:51:36.399 --> 03:51:45.159
can't see the television from the tree. If you move

1405
03:51:45.239 --> 03:51:54.559
down to your knees, getting such an important part, and

1406
03:51:55.159 --> 03:51:59.600
I think we don't necessarily I'll speak for myself here,

1407
03:52:02.079 --> 03:52:07.200
I don't necessarily appreciate all that my needes do for

1408
03:52:07.319 --> 03:52:13.159
me until I have a problem with my knee. It's

1409
03:52:13.200 --> 03:52:18.280
occasionally if I ever maybe i'll bash it or it's

1410
03:52:18.479 --> 03:52:24.959
aching for some reason. It's then that I realize how

1411
03:52:25.159 --> 03:52:29.040
much it does. You know, the benefit of being able

1412
03:52:29.120 --> 03:52:37.639
to use my legs without any kind of physical discomfort

1413
03:52:39.280 --> 03:52:46.280
is a beautiful thing that's possibly not appreciated until it's

1414
03:52:46.920 --> 03:52:56.319
temporarily removed. You know that's comfort. But as you focus

1415
03:52:56.399 --> 03:53:04.280
on your knees, regardless of how your knees feel, you

1416
03:53:04.360 --> 03:53:10.239
can have that sense of gratitude and love to your

1417
03:53:10.280 --> 03:53:22.879
knees for all that they do for you, And you

1418
03:53:23.000 --> 03:53:26.879
can still have that attention on your thighs and maybe

1419
03:53:27.040 --> 03:53:33.319
notice how your thighs feel. Maybe you've noticed that they

1420
03:53:34.239 --> 03:53:52.040
are relaxing more deeply as you focus now on the

1421
03:53:52.079 --> 03:53:56.479
bottoms of your legs, your shins, and your calf muscles,

1422
03:53:56.840 --> 03:54:04.680
and the bones between your knees and your feet, incorporating

1423
03:54:04.799 --> 03:54:17.120
of course, your ankles so important. Anyone that's had even

1424
03:54:17.520 --> 03:54:24.159
like the slightest sprain of an ankle knows how how

1425
03:54:24.399 --> 03:54:34.520
much we take our ankles for granted. And it's kind

1426
03:54:34.559 --> 03:54:40.079
of strange in a way when you think that. You know, logically,

1427
03:54:40.440 --> 03:54:43.479
our wrists are a lot thinner than the rest of

1428
03:54:43.559 --> 03:54:48.440
our arms, which is okay. It doesn't can't see any

1429
03:54:48.440 --> 03:54:53.399
problem with that because we're just picking stuff up. But

1430
03:54:53.520 --> 03:54:59.559
our ankles so much thinner than the rest of our legs,

1431
03:55:05.959 --> 03:55:10.399
and from a physics perspective or logical even it doesn't

1432
03:55:10.440 --> 03:55:16.440
really make sense that all this weight would ultimately be

1433
03:55:17.559 --> 03:55:27.559
resting on your ankles then leading to your feet, that

1434
03:55:28.159 --> 03:55:36.360
thin area, a thin bone. Yeah, it does so much

1435
03:55:36.479 --> 03:55:43.520
great work. Supports us, supports our body for a lifetime,

1436
03:55:48.280 --> 03:55:58.000
helps us to balance, helps you to get around and

1437
03:55:58.159 --> 03:56:12.159
be mobile. And there's the calf muscles. Of course, when

1438
03:56:12.239 --> 03:56:15.319
I was younger, I couldn't see the point in calf muscles.

1439
03:56:16.120 --> 03:56:20.840
I didn't seem to do anything. Okay, if I walked

1440
03:56:20.840 --> 03:56:24.559
around on tiptoes, then my calf muscles get some work.

1441
03:56:25.920 --> 03:56:28.479
But of course that's not true. The calf muscles are

1442
03:56:28.559 --> 03:56:38.440
being used whenever we use our legs and your shins

1443
03:56:41.719 --> 03:56:50.719
there to protect your lower legs, shaped in a way,

1444
03:56:52.559 --> 03:57:04.680
almost as a protector for the bone, leading of course

1445
03:57:04.760 --> 03:57:14.920
to your ankles and your feet. But we're not going

1446
03:57:14.959 --> 03:57:17.120
to focus on your feet. We're just going to focus

1447
03:57:17.159 --> 03:57:23.799
on the legs. I realize that now that I've mentioned

1448
03:57:23.879 --> 03:57:28.559
your feet, it probably focuses on them anyway. For maybe

1449
03:57:28.639 --> 03:57:34.760
I should focus on your feet a little bit. You

1450
03:57:34.840 --> 03:57:39.280
can have them in your awareness the same as you

1451
03:57:40.079 --> 03:57:44.000
have your thighs in your awareness. Even though we haven't

1452
03:57:44.040 --> 03:57:49.639
been focusing on your thighs for a few minutes, we've

1453
03:57:49.680 --> 03:58:00.319
been focusing on your ankles, there's still that since station

1454
03:58:00.559 --> 03:58:16.559
of comfort in your thighs in this that movement of energy.

1455
03:58:18.639 --> 03:58:25.639
Because the thighs hold lots of different sensations. Of course,

1456
03:58:25.719 --> 03:58:30.479
there's the muscles, the big straw muscles that we have

1457
03:58:30.680 --> 03:58:44.040
in our thighs, but the skin on the outside of

1458
03:58:44.120 --> 03:58:49.399
the thighs, as in the outside of all of our body,

1459
03:58:50.200 --> 03:59:01.799
can be very sensitive, sensitive to the touch, sensitive to temperature,

1460
03:59:08.360 --> 03:59:15.879
and inside your thighs the bones, there's the muscle, there's

1461
03:59:15.920 --> 03:59:20.719
the blood, vessels, the arch trees, it's all this stuff

1462
03:59:20.879 --> 03:59:29.559
that's inside your thighs. And I guess sometimes it'd be

1463
03:59:29.680 --> 03:59:33.799
nice if you could actually put your fingers inside your

1464
03:59:33.879 --> 03:59:40.079
thighs and a message, so you can message on the outside,

1465
03:59:40.360 --> 03:59:43.239
of course, but to be able to get deep into

1466
03:59:43.319 --> 03:59:48.120
the muscles and to be able to just message inside

1467
03:59:48.200 --> 03:59:55.200
your thighs, message in the bones of your leg, massage

1468
03:59:55.280 --> 04:00:04.520
in all the veins, and just gent healing your thighs,

1469
04:00:08.440 --> 04:00:15.200
and you could move down messaging inside your knees. Just

1470
04:00:15.399 --> 04:00:22.079
message in those bones, but with healing fingertips, spreading that

1471
04:00:22.520 --> 04:00:33.680
healing energy deep into the joints of your knees. Of course,

1472
04:00:33.760 --> 04:00:37.079
there's the back of your your knee, you know, the

1473
04:00:37.239 --> 04:00:44.239
inside crease where your knee is. It's a very sensitive area.

1474
04:00:46.239 --> 04:00:50.559
Very it feels very nice when you stroke it. That

1475
04:00:50.760 --> 04:00:54.440
might be because it's an area that's not really touched

1476
04:00:54.639 --> 04:01:01.239
very often. It's almost like a hidden part, that crease

1477
04:01:03.360 --> 04:01:07.799
in your legs. It's almost it's like a part that

1478
04:01:09.600 --> 04:01:20.840
has a sensitivity, which is a little bit different. Of course,

1479
04:01:20.920 --> 04:01:31.399
it's protected by your legs. So you can imagine putting

1480
04:01:32.280 --> 04:01:41.920
your fingers into that crease in your legs, that fold

1481
04:01:42.079 --> 04:01:46.200
in between your legs. You can just message with your fingertips.

1482
04:01:47.399 --> 04:01:54.159
Imagine your fingertips going inside, massage in the muscle tissue.

1483
04:01:58.760 --> 04:02:03.040
You can of course feel the bones of your knees

1484
04:02:04.559 --> 04:02:15.000
healing through your fingertips. And then as you go down

1485
04:02:17.840 --> 04:02:20.680
to your calf muscles. Now that's the part I'd like

1486
04:02:20.760 --> 04:02:25.440
to be able to really put my fingertips deep inside

1487
04:02:26.200 --> 04:02:35.159
my calf muscles, massage in every single tissue of that muscle,

1488
04:02:36.760 --> 04:02:46.680
healing every part and then doing the same for my shins,

1489
04:02:49.840 --> 04:02:56.719
massage in and gently stroking the bones, gently stroking them,

1490
04:02:57.639 --> 04:03:01.760
healing in a loving way, because they deserve to be

1491
04:03:01.959 --> 04:03:09.159
treated as the precious bones that they are. Because our

1492
04:03:09.280 --> 04:03:12.840
legs are so precious as in all the other parts

1493
04:03:12.920 --> 04:03:20.520
of our body, and more precious than any jure on

1494
04:03:20.680 --> 04:03:37.000
the planet. When you start to think about your legs

1495
04:03:37.120 --> 04:03:48.239
in this way, it can change your perspective. It might

1496
04:03:48.440 --> 04:03:55.040
sound a bit a bit silly to start with the

1497
04:03:55.200 --> 04:04:01.360
idea of having love for your legs, show an appreciation

1498
04:04:03.360 --> 04:04:08.959
for your thighs, wanting to be able to put your

1499
04:04:09.120 --> 04:04:17.360
hands in your thighs, massage the muscles and the bones,

1500
04:04:19.239 --> 04:04:24.959
and to get your fingers deep in there, releasing all tension,

1501
04:04:27.840 --> 04:04:36.440
just to show how much you care about your legs,

1502
04:04:37.360 --> 04:04:41.079
how much you care for what your legs do for

1503
04:04:41.239 --> 04:04:54.840
you regularly, your knees, your cars, your ankles. The strength

1504
04:04:55.000 --> 04:05:02.399
of your ankles, considering how or thin they are compared

1505
04:05:03.000 --> 04:05:09.600
to the rest of your legs, especially your thighs. Yeah,

1506
04:05:09.680 --> 04:05:21.760
they're so strong, so flexible, absolutely amazing things. Your ankles

1507
04:05:22.120 --> 04:05:31.200
are truly a gift because of what they do for you,

1508
04:05:36.719 --> 04:05:42.200
supporting all that weight, regardless.

1509
04:05:41.559 --> 04:05:43.639
Of how what weight you are.

1510
04:05:44.840 --> 04:05:49.600
Even if you only ate stone, there's still a lot

1511
04:05:49.639 --> 04:05:56.319
of weight for these little ankles. Now I'm a lot

1512
04:05:56.559 --> 04:06:04.319
heavier than eight stone double dot mhm. Yet my ankles

1513
04:06:06.079 --> 04:06:13.719
support my body all the time, or they do give

1514
04:06:13.799 --> 04:06:18.360
off a sigh of relief when I sit down as

1515
04:06:19.200 --> 04:06:26.399
I have my whole legs do my feet feet also

1516
04:06:26.559 --> 04:06:51.799
go and my toes clap they're so happy. Your legs

1517
04:06:53.680 --> 04:07:01.520
really are amazing. And I know that talk about talking

1518
04:07:01.559 --> 04:07:08.239
about your legs is probably possibly among the most most

1519
04:07:08.360 --> 04:07:16.000
boring things you've ever heard anyone say. Possibly, but boring

1520
04:07:16.159 --> 04:07:24.319
or not, everything I said is true. Your legs are amazing.

1521
04:07:33.239 --> 04:07:46.120
Your legs deserve not just respect, They deserve to relax deeply.

1522
04:07:53.399 --> 04:07:56.719
They deserve to take some time out of the day

1523
04:07:58.959 --> 04:08:27.680
to just let go completely. The legs really can relax.

1524
04:08:35.319 --> 04:08:39.440
And because the legs are so such a most you know,

1525
04:08:39.680 --> 04:08:45.600
very important part of your body. When you relax your legs,

1526
04:08:45.719 --> 04:08:52.920
the rest of your body also naturally follows in that

1527
04:08:56.680 --> 04:09:07.520
journey of comfort. I can feel it in my hips.

1528
04:09:08.879 --> 04:09:15.719
My hips feel really loose, and also in my lower

1529
04:09:15.840 --> 04:09:22.680
back as well. My lower back really feels it feels stretched,

1530
04:09:23.799 --> 04:09:26.840
even though I'm just sitting in a chair, and there's

1531
04:09:26.959 --> 04:09:32.200
no stretching as far as I'm aware that I'm doing.

1532
04:09:33.159 --> 04:09:35.760
But it's almost as if the muscles are just relaxed

1533
04:09:35.840 --> 04:09:41.399
so much that there is a natural stretch as the

1534
04:09:41.600 --> 04:10:03.840
tension has reduced a lot. And I'm now going to

1535
04:10:03.920 --> 04:10:11.360
count down from ten down to one, and you can

1536
04:10:11.479 --> 04:10:37.079
continue to fill wonderfully relaxed ten nine, eight, seven, six.

1537
04:10:39.959 --> 04:10:40.520
Five.

1538
04:10:44.879 --> 04:10:49.040
Four three.

1539
04:10:52.879 --> 04:11:13.600
Two one. Relax. So I'm just going to count down

1540
04:11:15.120 --> 04:11:19.840
from five down to one, and as a countdown, if

1541
04:11:19.879 --> 04:11:26.920
you just focus on the numbers, just the numbers counting down,

1542
04:11:28.000 --> 04:11:31.959
and notice how you feel.

1543
04:11:34.239 --> 04:11:35.440
In this moment.

1544
04:11:36.879 --> 04:11:41.239
As you hear the numbers counting down, knowing that those

1545
04:11:41.399 --> 04:11:54.479
numbers counting down represent you feeling calmer, not just in

1546
04:11:54.559 --> 04:12:02.920
your body, but also relaxing your mind. I just notice

1547
04:12:02.959 --> 04:12:09.000
how you feel. There's nothing to do, there's nothing to say,

1548
04:12:09.680 --> 04:12:26.719
there's nothing to think about, starting with number five four

1549
04:12:36.239 --> 04:13:12.159
three two one. As you notice the gradual letting go

1550
04:13:14.760 --> 04:13:21.879
the tension in your body, you may also begin to

1551
04:13:22.159 --> 04:13:29.440
notice and be aware of how your mind is starting

1552
04:13:29.920 --> 04:13:37.879
to slow down. This is just a natural thing that happens.

1553
04:13:40.479 --> 04:13:45.680
It's not really a special procedure. It's just natural because

1554
04:13:45.760 --> 04:13:51.639
as your body relaxes, your mind also starts to relax,

1555
04:13:53.280 --> 04:13:56.920
and the more your mind relaxes, the more your body relaxes.

1556
04:13:57.040 --> 04:14:07.520
It's just a continuous circle of relaxation. And there's that

1557
04:14:08.840 --> 04:14:16.680
calmness that comes from relative quietness. You know, even even

1558
04:14:16.719 --> 04:14:23.680
if there's background sounds either your side, online, it's still

1559
04:14:24.200 --> 04:14:29.479
going to be quite calm. You know, you haven't got

1560
04:14:29.520 --> 04:14:34.680
the television on, there's no music in the background unless

1561
04:14:34.680 --> 04:14:42.120
you're listening to the recording. With music, of course, you're

1562
04:14:42.280 --> 04:14:44.399
very likely not going to be sitting in a room

1563
04:14:44.479 --> 04:14:49.040
with other people. Of course you might be, but generally

1564
04:14:49.239 --> 04:14:52.319
it's more ideal if you can do this on your own,

1565
04:14:54.040 --> 04:15:04.079
so no distractions, and when you stop thinking about stuff,

1566
04:15:10.680 --> 04:15:20.959
relaxation automatically rises. A sense of comfort starts to grow,

1567
04:15:25.479 --> 04:15:32.159
and without trying to build it up into something fantastical

1568
04:15:32.559 --> 04:15:44.319
or something magical, this is just a natural process, something

1569
04:15:44.440 --> 04:15:54.799
that's easy to accomplish. In fact, it's almost know. The

1570
04:15:55.120 --> 04:16:01.799
sense of relaxing completely happens really when you put no

1571
04:16:02.000 --> 04:16:06.559
effort into it. It's not something that you can really force.

1572
04:16:09.200 --> 04:16:18.559
It's something that happens naturally. And part of the process

1573
04:16:18.959 --> 04:16:30.159
of this recording and others. Is simply two. Allow you

1574
04:16:32.559 --> 04:16:43.399
to take advantage of this space this time, to just

1575
04:16:47.600 --> 04:16:55.159
let go, to just be here, to be in tune

1576
04:16:58.879 --> 04:17:10.959
with how you feel, yet with the intention of wanting

1577
04:17:11.239 --> 04:17:23.319
to relax deeply and maybe even to fall asleep, depending

1578
04:17:23.600 --> 04:17:29.799
on what it is that you wish for yourself in

1579
04:17:29.920 --> 04:17:46.079
this moment. As we know, relaxing is the majority of

1580
04:17:46.200 --> 04:17:50.799
the process of falling asleep. The actual falling asleep part

1581
04:17:51.040 --> 04:17:59.239
is a tiny bit at the end. The deeper relaxed

1582
04:17:59.479 --> 04:18:21.079
do you, because the easier you find yourself drifting. You

1583
04:18:21.200 --> 04:18:28.200
can also if you choose stay focused on my voice

1584
04:18:30.000 --> 04:19:01.440
and really enjoy the process, gradually relaxing each muscle in

1585
04:19:01.600 --> 04:19:28.879
your body effortlessly and just observing the sensation of letting

1586
04:19:29.079 --> 04:19:44.680
go completely. This time, I'm going to count from six

1587
04:19:45.719 --> 04:19:57.719
down to one, and you can notice your mind calming

1588
04:19:58.079 --> 04:20:10.600
down more with each number that you hear me say, naturally,

1589
04:20:11.680 --> 04:22:53.159
feeling calm and slow and peaceful. Six, five, four, three, two, one,

1590
04:23:14.319 --> 04:23:23.920
being aware of how your mind has slowed right down,

1591
04:23:27.159 --> 04:23:50.559
sinking deeply into relaxation. And as you focus on your mind,

1592
04:23:50.840 --> 04:24:00.799
you may notice that there are some thoughts still there,

1593
04:24:03.399 --> 04:24:12.920
maybe some stubborn thoughts that for some reason perhaps need

1594
04:24:13.040 --> 04:24:28.200
your attention. That's what you can do is send love

1595
04:24:28.440 --> 04:24:35.280
to those thoughts. Sprinkle those thoughts.

1596
04:24:39.399 --> 04:24:40.200
With love.

1597
04:24:41.680 --> 04:24:45.920
M all petals from a flower. Just sprinkle it over them,

1598
04:24:47.360 --> 04:24:54.520
petals filled with love towards those thoughts, to let those

1599
04:24:54.760 --> 04:25:01.159
thoughts know that you're not abandon in them. You just

1600
04:25:01.639 --> 04:25:11.719
need them. You require them to just calm down, slow down,

1601
04:25:14.040 --> 04:25:15.399
quiet down.

1602
04:25:19.000 --> 04:25:19.399
For now.

1603
04:25:27.319 --> 04:25:32.319
So as you focus on those remaining thoughts as we

1604
04:25:32.479 --> 04:25:37.719
count down this time from seven down to one. With

1605
04:25:37.879 --> 04:25:51.760
each number, just imagine sprinkling those flower petals of love, kindness,

1606
04:25:53.360 --> 04:26:05.200
gratitude over those thoughts, which will allow them to just

1607
04:26:06.639 --> 04:26:21.639
melt away and relax deeply. With every number, those thoughts

1608
04:26:21.799 --> 04:28:29.799
will become more and more relaxed, starting with number seven, six, five, four, three, two.

1609
04:28:48.200 --> 04:28:48.440
One.

1610
04:29:05.120 --> 04:29:22.040
And as you now notice how relaxed your feeling in

1611
04:29:22.239 --> 04:29:43.799
your body, We're going to focus on your hands, because

1612
04:29:43.920 --> 04:29:50.120
the more relaxed your hands are, the more relaxed your

1613
04:29:50.239 --> 04:29:52.440
body and mind are.

1614
04:30:07.360 --> 04:30:08.000
And there's.

1615
04:30:09.520 --> 04:30:19.680
You focus on your hands and your fingers. There's nothing

1616
04:30:20.200 --> 04:30:24.920
needed to be done. There's no clenching of fists or

1617
04:30:26.000 --> 04:30:36.280
dents in the fingers or anything like that it's just

1618
04:30:36.760 --> 04:30:50.799
noticing and focusing on your hands, noticing how they feel,

1619
04:31:05.479 --> 04:31:15.920
because the more relaxed your hands feel, the calmer your

1620
04:31:16.159 --> 04:31:28.040
mind feels, and the more comfort you feel throughout your body.

1621
04:31:34.000 --> 04:32:07.319
You may have already noticed your mind is starting to

1622
04:32:07.680 --> 04:32:35.319
dress like since just on your hands and fingers, allowing

1623
04:32:35.920 --> 04:32:50.319
them to experience are real deepening of that relaxation in

1624
04:32:50.479 --> 04:33:08.560
your hands and fingers, more and more relaxed. With each

1625
04:33:08.840 --> 04:33:29.119
number from eight down to one, you can almost feel

1626
04:33:29.560 --> 04:33:40.279
that healing and relaxing energy spreading into your hands and fingers,

1627
04:33:43.639 --> 04:34:05.040
becoming year more relaxing with each number you hear, going

1628
04:34:05.279 --> 04:34:25.520
down from eight down to one, drifting drifting again, starting

1629
04:34:25.840 --> 04:38:25.560
with number eight, seven, six, five, four, three two, just

1630
04:38:25.840 --> 04:38:34.840
being here now, nothing to think about, nothing to do,

1631
04:38:36.439 --> 04:38:50.400
nothing to say, and everything just feels calmer. And this

1632
04:38:50.680 --> 04:38:58.279
is your natural state of being. This is how you

1633
04:38:58.560 --> 04:39:05.479
just normal feel when you take away all that other

1634
04:39:05.880 --> 04:39:12.799
stuff that we add, you know, things like stress and

1635
04:39:13.040 --> 04:39:29.200
worrying and overthinking and anxiety, tension, just generally thinking about stuff.

1636
04:39:31.200 --> 04:39:34.520
When you take that away, which is what we do,

1637
04:39:35.319 --> 04:39:47.159
what we do now, you're left with a real sense

1638
04:39:47.799 --> 04:39:59.880
of peacefulness which comes to you very quickly, because old

1639
04:40:00.200 --> 04:40:13.959
relie is just a feeling, a feeling, a comfort. It's

1640
04:40:14.119 --> 04:40:17.560
almost as if you've gone inside yourself and you've found

1641
04:40:18.279 --> 04:40:32.279
a special place where everything is peaceful, a place where

1642
04:40:32.400 --> 04:40:39.919
you can feel relaxed and your natural sense of comfort,

1643
04:40:43.119 --> 04:40:50.520
a place where you can be you, where you can

1644
04:40:51.240 --> 04:40:57.880
accept yourself for who you are, a place where you're

1645
04:40:57.959 --> 04:41:08.360
not trying to please anybody else ever, a place where

1646
04:41:08.520 --> 04:41:17.919
you can actually not just love yourself, but in some

1647
04:41:18.080 --> 04:41:27.520
ways more importantly, you can like yourself appreciate who you are.

1648
04:41:36.400 --> 04:41:43.000
That sense of gratitude is in the air all around you.

1649
04:41:50.639 --> 04:41:58.479
That's also a place where you can actually feel the

1650
04:41:58.840 --> 04:42:14.119
healing anything soaking into your body, healing energy soaking into

1651
04:42:14.240 --> 04:42:24.200
your body, and that healing energy spreads through your veins,

1652
04:42:27.959 --> 04:42:34.840
traveling to each and every single part of your body,

1653
04:42:40.759 --> 04:42:45.360
and you start to realize that actually that healing energy,

1654
04:42:47.840 --> 04:42:54.240
it's not just entered into your brain, it's become part

1655
04:42:54.759 --> 04:43:06.040
of your brain, and that spinal fluid is now mixed

1656
04:43:06.159 --> 04:43:17.279
with healing energy, not just allowing you to feel so

1657
04:43:17.520 --> 04:43:29.400
much more relaxed and healthy in this moment, but also

1658
04:43:32.360 --> 04:43:39.840
you start to realize that actually what's happening now with

1659
04:43:40.040 --> 04:43:49.639
that healing, relaxing energy spreading through your body. It's actually

1660
04:43:50.080 --> 04:44:00.319
changing your life. It's actually changing the way you're going

1661
04:44:00.400 --> 04:44:07.159
to feel not just now, but tomorrow and the next day.

1662
04:44:09.080 --> 04:44:16.560
As your health improves, not just your physical health, but

1663
04:44:16.680 --> 04:44:24.119
your mental health. Things that used to bother you in

1664
04:44:24.240 --> 04:44:31.799
the past, for some reason, no longer have the effect

1665
04:44:32.319 --> 04:44:41.240
that they used to because something has changed deep within you.

1666
04:44:46.319 --> 04:44:52.720
Maybe things that used to cause you to feel anger

1667
04:44:56.560 --> 04:45:06.400
no longer have that power well to control you the

1668
04:45:06.479 --> 04:45:12.799
way they seem to be able to before. As you

1669
04:45:14.119 --> 04:45:24.279
realize that you're the one who decides what affects you,

1670
04:45:27.959 --> 04:45:36.799
you're the one who decides to feel relaxed and calm

1671
04:45:38.400 --> 04:45:53.720
when you choose to enjoy noticing these natural developments of

1672
04:45:54.040 --> 04:46:05.599
healing continuing to grow and improve your life day by day,

1673
04:46:11.479 --> 04:46:19.720
including of course, your ability to relax so much easier.

1674
04:46:24.680 --> 04:46:34.279
And sleeping is the most natural thing in the world

1675
04:46:35.720 --> 04:46:44.040
to you, because falling asleep is something that you've done

1676
04:46:47.080 --> 04:46:54.759
so many times in your life, and you know that

1677
04:46:54.959 --> 04:46:59.959
you were born, as we all were, with the ability

1678
04:47:00.119 --> 04:47:12.119
to fall asleep naturally. We were born with that ability

1679
04:47:15.080 --> 04:47:29.319
to just drift off into a deep, healing sleep, even

1680
04:47:29.400 --> 04:47:34.159
when we're kids, sometimes we'll fall asleep when we don't

1681
04:47:34.200 --> 04:47:40.599
even want to try to stay awake. Maybe it's a

1682
04:47:40.759 --> 04:47:45.200
birthday in the morning, or it's Christmas or holiday or

1683
04:47:45.279 --> 04:47:47.680
something we look forward to. We don't want to go

1684
04:47:47.799 --> 04:47:52.759
to sleep. But the more we want to stay awake,

1685
04:47:54.959 --> 04:48:02.000
the more we just start to drift. And the more

1686
04:48:02.680 --> 04:48:06.360
you fight drifting, the more you try and stop yourself

1687
04:48:06.439 --> 04:48:11.439
and drift in a shape, the deeper and stronger that

1688
04:48:11.720 --> 04:48:23.119
drifting becomes. Because we're born not just with the need

1689
04:48:24.439 --> 04:48:32.560
to relax deeply and to naturally fall asleep, but it's

1690
04:48:32.639 --> 04:48:46.959
our birthright, it's part of our DNA, and sometimes as

1691
04:48:47.040 --> 04:48:52.639
we get older in life, perhaps at times we have

1692
04:48:53.080 --> 04:49:08.720
forgotten that relaxing completely. It's not only a wonderfully pleasant experience,

1693
04:49:14.479 --> 04:49:32.479
it's also really easy. It's very very easy to let go,

1694
04:49:34.520 --> 04:49:44.159
because that's all it is. It's just deciding to let go.

1695
04:49:49.360 --> 04:49:55.360
And when you press the play button on my recordings,

1696
04:49:57.200 --> 04:50:04.560
you have given permission for my voice to relax you.

1697
04:50:08.240 --> 04:50:12.520
When you press that play button, you've given me permission

1698
04:50:13.759 --> 04:50:27.439
for my words to affect you in a positive, only

1699
04:50:27.959 --> 04:50:47.479
a positive way. Opening up your mind to useful and

1700
04:50:49.119 --> 04:51:06.759
healing suggestions that can have such an amazing effect on

1701
04:51:06.959 --> 04:51:19.000
how you feel right now, as well as those changes

1702
04:51:19.319 --> 04:51:29.479
that continue long after the recording ends. Those changes within

1703
04:51:29.639 --> 04:51:42.959
you to continue to flourish and grow, transforming your life

1704
04:51:45.240 --> 04:51:57.279
in a positive, beautiful way, allowing you to move forward

1705
04:51:57.759 --> 04:52:04.439
in your life the direction that you choose for yourself.

1706
04:52:13.560 --> 04:52:25.560
And this feeling, this feeling that you can experience of safety, comfort, calmness,

1707
04:52:33.319 --> 04:52:47.279
This feels so nice. It's such a healthy place to be,

1708
04:52:55.200 --> 04:53:08.959
and that positivity grows within you each and every day.

1709
04:53:12.040 --> 04:53:21.840
Moving forward, you're going to find that you're more relaxed

1710
04:53:24.159 --> 04:53:36.520
physically and in your mind is more relaxed. And it's

1711
04:53:36.599 --> 04:53:42.119
not that you're thinking slower. It's just that your mind

1712
04:53:42.240 --> 04:53:54.080
will be less clogged up with unnecessary negativity because from

1713
04:53:54.200 --> 04:54:04.479
now on, your mind rejects negativity. From now on, you're

1714
04:54:04.560 --> 04:54:15.360
going to start noticing when negativity arises and you can

1715
04:54:15.560 --> 04:54:29.479
just say stop, stop, and that negativity will turn around

1716
04:54:30.080 --> 04:54:49.479
and leave you alone. Stop and that negativity will disappear.

1717
04:54:57.599 --> 04:55:04.119
And as you notice that you feel way more relaxed

1718
04:55:05.520 --> 04:55:20.880
than you probably expected, you can now congratulate yourself because

1719
04:55:21.080 --> 04:55:27.479
you're the person that has done this. You are the

1720
04:55:27.599 --> 04:55:32.680
one that has opened your mind up to the simple

1721
04:55:32.919 --> 04:55:40.759
facts that you can feel more relaxed in your body

1722
04:55:41.479 --> 04:55:50.759
and in your mind. You've opened your mind up to

1723
04:55:53.119 --> 04:55:59.680
the birthright of being able to just fall asleep easily

1724
04:56:00.720 --> 04:56:14.759
when you choose. And that's a nice feeling. Don't you

1725
04:56:14.840 --> 04:56:26.400
think it feels nice? Doesn't it? To feel calm? All

1726
04:56:26.479 --> 04:56:31.080
that healing energy is spreading through your body and your

1727
04:56:31.200 --> 04:56:46.959
mind to spend time in a special place where negativity

1728
04:56:48.479 --> 04:57:01.360
can no longer enter. Negativity is banned, it's barred, it's

1729
04:57:01.439 --> 04:57:08.119
not allowed Entryue doesn't it doesn't. This doesn't deserve to

1730
04:57:08.200 --> 04:57:17.319
be here, doesn't belong here. Negativity has no place in

1731
04:57:17.520 --> 04:57:34.080
your life, Which makes room feel more comfort, more heathing,

1732
04:57:36.240 --> 04:58:03.479
more relaxation, more peace. It feels nice, doesn't it? Just

1733
04:58:07.000 --> 04:58:26.880
the let go with everything. I'm going to count down

1734
04:58:27.080 --> 04:58:35.759
now from twenty down to one. You can continue to relax.

1735
04:58:37.959 --> 04:58:49.479
If you choose, you can drift to sleep with every

1736
04:58:49.680 --> 04:59:00.439
number you hear me say, you can fill t VISI

1737
04:59:00.520 --> 04:59:07.479
is relaxed, or if you choose, you can fill twice

1738
04:59:08.080 --> 05:01:36.680
sleepy now twenty nineteen, eighteen, seventeen, sixteen, fifteen, fourteen, thirteen, twelve, eleven, ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five, four,

1739
05:02:10.080 --> 05:02:19.919
This is your time to just take a break, your

1740
05:02:20.080 --> 05:02:30.799
time to relax, to allow your mind to slow down,

1741
05:02:39.479 --> 05:02:53.520
to give yourself permission to take a break from everything.

1742
05:02:58.279 --> 05:03:02.720
And you're the only person and that can make that decision.

1743
05:03:05.599 --> 05:03:08.319
You're the only person that can actually tell your mind

1744
05:03:13.119 --> 05:03:37.400
to just relax, to just take some time off so

1745
05:03:37.560 --> 05:03:42.400
that you can focus on your body, getting in touch

1746
05:03:42.720 --> 05:03:57.400
with how you feel physically. And in the process of

1747
05:04:00.200 --> 05:04:04.919
this body scan, where you focus on different parts of

1748
05:04:05.000 --> 05:04:15.799
your body, those parts that you focus on and observe,

1749
05:04:18.759 --> 05:04:27.119
even though you're not purposely requesting for those parts of

1750
05:04:27.200 --> 05:04:34.680
your body to relax, it's kind of expected. You expect

1751
05:04:36.080 --> 05:04:43.720
when you listen to my voice to feel more relaxed naturally,

1752
05:04:49.240 --> 05:04:57.680
because when you're listening to me, your attention is focused

1753
05:04:59.400 --> 05:05:10.599
on my words, and as my words guide you to

1754
05:05:10.799 --> 05:05:23.159
focus on those parts of your body, your focus increases,

1755
05:05:30.279 --> 05:05:46.599
which actually calms your mind. And when your mind calms down,

1756
05:05:51.479 --> 05:06:13.560
your body relaxes. And when your body calms down, your

1757
05:06:13.720 --> 05:06:30.560
mind relaxes. And even though we've not really started the

1758
05:06:30.720 --> 05:06:43.400
focus on your body, you can already feel that healing

1759
05:06:43.639 --> 05:06:58.119
energy spreading through your body, pushing out stress and tension,

1760
05:07:02.279 --> 05:07:09.560
healing all the parts of your body, including your skin,

1761
05:07:10.720 --> 05:07:17.599
your bones, your blood, all of your organs inside your body,

1762
05:07:19.040 --> 05:07:25.799
all of the muscles, all of the fat, all of everything,

1763
05:07:27.639 --> 05:07:33.840
every hair on your body is filled with that healing energy.

1764
05:07:41.880 --> 05:07:57.599
And when your brain fills with that healing energy, the

1765
05:07:57.840 --> 05:08:22.560
feeling of comfort relaxation increases deeply, increases in a way

1766
05:08:22.880 --> 05:08:42.840
that your mind starts to feel perhaps bit drowsy because

1767
05:08:42.880 --> 05:09:02.040
it's not needed, and it may start to drift if

1768
05:09:02.119 --> 05:09:10.639
that's what's needed. So if you're listening to this and

1769
05:09:10.799 --> 05:09:14.799
what you need is deep relaxation, that's what you'll get.

1770
05:09:17.040 --> 05:09:23.919
If what you need is to fall asleep naturally and

1771
05:09:24.119 --> 05:09:32.680
easily as your mind drifts, that's also what will happen.

1772
05:09:38.400 --> 05:09:46.119
Because by pressing that play button on the podcast and

1773
05:09:46.439 --> 05:09:52.720
listening to me, you give permission for your body and

1774
05:09:52.880 --> 05:10:04.880
your mind. In fact, you give the command to your

1775
05:10:04.959 --> 05:10:16.279
body and your mind to relax deeply and to drift

1776
05:10:16.400 --> 05:10:25.279
off to sleep if that's what you want or need.

1777
05:10:33.000 --> 05:10:38.639
And as I focus on the different parts of your body,

1778
05:10:43.599 --> 05:10:52.439
you may start to just drift, and then you come

1779
05:10:52.520 --> 05:10:57.799
back again and you hear me talking, and I'm focusing

1780
05:10:57.959 --> 05:11:06.400
on a different parts of your body, and you may

1781
05:11:08.479 --> 05:11:17.400
find yourself drifting, but you don't realize you're drifting until

1782
05:11:17.439 --> 05:11:23.959
you stop drifting and you're alert again to my voice.

1783
05:11:25.400 --> 05:11:31.279
Focusing on a different part of your body starts to

1784
05:11:31.479 --> 05:11:42.319
relax even deeper, because that drifting is basically you already

1785
05:11:44.639 --> 05:11:54.439
in the sleep zone. And the more you drift, the

1786
05:11:54.639 --> 05:12:04.360
longer you drift, and the longer you drift, eventually that

1787
05:12:04.599 --> 05:12:14.759
drifting continues into sleep, and that's the last you remember

1788
05:12:16.840 --> 05:12:25.000
until you wake up in your own time, when you

1789
05:12:25.360 --> 05:12:33.720
experience the right amount of sleep for you, because when

1790
05:12:33.799 --> 05:12:34.119
you do.

1791
05:12:36.000 --> 05:12:37.599
And if you do fall.

1792
05:12:37.479 --> 05:12:55.520
Asleep, it's extremely pleasant, so relaxing, so deep, healing sleep.

1793
05:13:05.720 --> 05:13:13.479
It feels so nice to relax into your own body

1794
05:13:13.720 --> 05:13:22.240
and mind as you as you feel that heathing energy

1795
05:13:22.319 --> 05:13:35.360
is spreading through it, relaxing us so deeply, relaxing, use

1796
05:13:35.840 --> 05:13:52.840
so so deeply. As we start to focus on your eyes,

1797
05:14:00.759 --> 05:14:47.439
moving down to your jaw, down to your neck, your shoulders, arms, hands, fingers,

1798
05:14:54.759 --> 05:15:35.720
your chest, stomach, your back, your spine, your hips, you legs,

1799
05:15:43.599 --> 05:16:21.799
your feet, your chase and feelingeeing spreading and growing inside

1800
05:16:22.159 --> 05:16:35.680
your body, feeling you up. Now let's focus again on

1801
05:16:35.880 --> 05:16:43.720
parts of your body, focusing this time on your forehead.

1802
05:16:50.200 --> 05:16:59.439
Now on your mouth, your lips, your tongue, the whole

1803
05:16:59.520 --> 05:17:21.319
of your mouth. Focus in on your fingers. Maybe you

1804
05:17:21.439 --> 05:17:25.479
could move your fingers a little bit so you can

1805
05:17:26.560 --> 05:17:41.200
focus on each one individually, both hands, and even though

1806
05:17:41.439 --> 05:17:46.479
as you focus on both of your hands now they

1807
05:17:46.560 --> 05:17:54.720
almost seem to just melt into one where there is

1808
05:17:54.759 --> 05:18:02.360
your right hand start in your left hand end, almost

1809
05:18:02.520 --> 05:18:14.080
as if just mixed together. Now focusing on your knees,

1810
05:18:19.959 --> 05:18:42.959
just noticing how your knees feel. Now, focusing on your elbows,

1811
05:18:45.720 --> 05:18:58.119
focusing on both of your elbows, just observing the feeling

1812
05:19:00.840 --> 05:19:32.200
of few elbows. Now focusing and absurding the back of

1813
05:19:32.319 --> 05:19:48.119
your neck, feeding the energy on the back of your neck,

1814
05:20:19.479 --> 05:20:42.040
Observing your ankles, being aware of physical sensations in your ankles,

1815
05:21:42.080 --> 05:21:43.080
not to sin.

1816
05:21:45.200 --> 05:21:45.279
No.

1817
05:21:48.360 --> 05:22:03.799
You twos on both for your feet. Being aware how

1818
05:22:06.040 --> 05:22:57.000
you TOAs fear right now, n too, then how your

1819
05:22:57.560 --> 05:23:46.240
entire body feels. Noticing your mind feels now, letting go,

1820
05:23:55.040 --> 05:24:36.439
letting go, letting go everything, letting go, letting go, letting

1821
05:24:37.119 --> 05:25:03.919
go everything everything. I'm going to start now, and I'd

1822
05:25:04.040 --> 05:25:06.319
like you just first of all, just to see yourself

1823
05:25:07.880 --> 05:25:14.080
lying down on that message table, lying on your front.

1824
05:25:15.360 --> 05:25:23.319
Your head is supported, your arms are supported, and you

1825
05:25:23.400 --> 05:25:30.040
feel comfortable and breathing. It's really easy, and you feel

1826
05:25:33.560 --> 05:25:36.560
you feel confident in how you look as well. So

1827
05:25:36.959 --> 05:25:41.119
there's none of that issue of body problems or shyness

1828
05:25:42.040 --> 05:25:50.159
because I'm a professional and this is a therapy session,

1829
05:25:50.959 --> 05:25:58.919
so none of that stuff matters whatsoever. This is about you.

1830
05:26:01.759 --> 05:26:07.520
This is about how you feel and how you can

1831
05:26:09.000 --> 05:26:14.639
enjoy that sense of comfort and relaxation that comes from

1832
05:26:16.000 --> 05:26:21.680
letting go and allowing my hands and my fingers to

1833
05:26:21.799 --> 05:26:33.240
relax you by a message your body. So I want

1834
05:26:33.279 --> 05:26:38.240
to start off just by placing my hands on the

1835
05:26:38.279 --> 05:26:43.200
back of your head, just gently, just you can feel

1836
05:26:43.319 --> 05:26:51.799
what my hands feel like really on you. So you

1837
05:26:51.880 --> 05:26:54.119
can maybe feel the warmth of my hands on the

1838
05:26:54.159 --> 05:27:00.479
back of your head, with my hands to decide your head,

1839
05:27:01.479 --> 05:27:08.040
not pressing, but just holding there very gently, maybe over

1840
05:27:08.159 --> 05:27:11.840
your ears, and a little bit on your face, just

1841
05:27:11.919 --> 05:27:17.360
so you can feel my hands so you can become

1842
05:27:17.400 --> 05:27:30.400
accustomed to them. And now put my hands on the

1843
05:27:30.479 --> 05:27:35.159
back of your head again and gently let them slide

1844
05:27:35.240 --> 05:27:47.439
down onto the back of your neck. You can feel

1845
05:27:47.520 --> 05:27:57.520
my hands gently stroking the back of your neck to

1846
05:27:57.639 --> 05:28:04.119
start with just so you can get used to the

1847
05:28:06.000 --> 05:28:09.520
feeling of my hands on your skin, get accustomed to

1848
05:28:13.520 --> 05:28:18.439
realize that you're safe and it's all good, it's all fine,

1849
05:28:24.840 --> 05:28:28.880
And I'm going to start gently messaging the muscles in

1850
05:28:29.000 --> 05:28:44.840
the back of your neck with both hands. Now, this

1851
05:28:44.959 --> 05:28:51.200
is a very trusting situation, really, because our necks are

1852
05:28:51.279 --> 05:28:56.479
so fragile and to have someone have their hands around

1853
05:28:56.520 --> 05:29:01.639
your neck in that way can sometimes be problematic for people,

1854
05:29:02.880 --> 05:29:07.360
which is why massages are quite good, because it allows

1855
05:29:07.400 --> 05:29:17.360
you to relax and to get in touch with trust,

1856
05:29:21.639 --> 05:29:34.240
to feel peaceful and calm. There's a massage the sides

1857
05:29:34.319 --> 05:29:42.360
of your neck, gently moving from the bottom of your neck.

1858
05:29:44.040 --> 05:29:46.560
It would be sort of near where your shoulders start,

1859
05:29:46.639 --> 05:29:53.720
I guess, all the way up to your jaw, your ears,

1860
05:29:54.159 --> 05:29:59.840
kind of area. That side of your neck, of course,

1861
05:30:00.119 --> 05:30:02.439
is a lot longer than the front of your neck.

1862
05:30:15.520 --> 05:30:22.520
The message in the back of your neck, especially that

1863
05:30:22.759 --> 05:30:32.200
area where perhaps we hold tension, and as that area's message,

1864
05:30:32.560 --> 05:30:36.639
you can actually feel a sense of release in the

1865
05:30:36.720 --> 05:30:44.599
back of your neck, and maybe you can breathe it

1866
05:30:44.720 --> 05:30:50.680
out as well. Notice how it feels, Notice how you feel,

1867
05:31:00.439 --> 05:31:04.040
and then moving down to that area between your neck

1868
05:31:04.119 --> 05:31:13.880
and your shoulders, that muscle area. Starting to message that

1869
05:31:14.080 --> 05:31:18.360
area on both sides. I mean, this would be the

1870
05:31:18.479 --> 05:31:21.279
area that a lot of people would message if they

1871
05:31:21.319 --> 05:31:26.159
were going to give you like a shoulder message. Even

1872
05:31:26.240 --> 05:31:30.200
that's not technically the shoulders, but it's all the muscles

1873
05:31:30.200 --> 05:31:32.000
that lead to the shoulders.

1874
05:31:33.319 --> 05:31:34.200
From the neck.

1875
05:31:36.040 --> 05:31:41.520
And again that can hold tension and stress. And when

1876
05:31:41.680 --> 05:31:49.599
massaged sometimes a nice deep message is useful, and you

1877
05:31:49.840 --> 05:32:07.119
decide how deep that message is and just allow my

1878
05:32:07.240 --> 05:32:12.880
knuckles just to dig in to get to those muscles

1879
05:32:13.000 --> 05:32:23.319
and to reading relaxed all the time being firm yet

1880
05:32:23.759 --> 05:32:43.080
gentle with you and just stroking down the area to

1881
05:32:43.240 --> 05:32:49.159
your actual shoulders, moving to the muscles of your shoulders

1882
05:32:55.159 --> 05:32:59.919
and maybe initially just pulling up the shoulders a little

1883
05:33:00.040 --> 05:33:03.439
bit of the table, just to give you a little

1884
05:33:03.479 --> 05:33:13.880
bit of a stretch, but very gently. And you've got

1885
05:33:13.919 --> 05:33:17.560
the muscles at the front of your shoulders, the sides

1886
05:33:17.759 --> 05:33:28.319
and the back. Again, this is a part that can

1887
05:33:28.479 --> 05:33:33.680
really take quite a bit of pressure, quite a bit

1888
05:33:33.759 --> 05:33:43.959
of needing if if you wish to really release the

1889
05:33:44.119 --> 05:33:52.439
tension to really get into those muscles, and you can

1890
05:33:52.520 --> 05:33:56.720
let your fingers in there. You can feel really nice.

1891
05:33:58.680 --> 05:34:06.240
Sometimes it's just being stroked gently or being massaged quite strongly.

1892
05:34:09.919 --> 05:34:19.119
It can all be beneficial to the real oxation with

1893
05:34:19.279 --> 05:34:32.919
the muscles in your shoulders. Now you've moved down your arms.

1894
05:34:39.520 --> 05:34:43.040
We do one arm at a time, starting with your

1895
05:34:43.159 --> 05:34:53.400
right arm. Well I do is I just lift your

1896
05:34:53.560 --> 05:34:56.319
arm up, just hold it to the side of you,

1897
05:34:59.439 --> 05:35:05.919
don't worr still be attached, and I just message the

1898
05:35:06.080 --> 05:35:18.919
tops of your arms all the way down to your

1899
05:35:19.119 --> 05:35:46.119
forearms into your wrists, gently massaging that parts, the softer

1900
05:35:46.279 --> 05:35:52.560
part which is the under part of the arm, which

1901
05:35:52.720 --> 05:35:57.680
leads to the crease in your rowbo the inside. It's

1902
05:35:57.840 --> 05:36:15.000
much more sensitive skin sometimes just having that stroked and

1903
05:36:15.080 --> 05:36:30.599
I feel really nice, pleasurable and relaxing. Now moving down

1904
05:36:32.000 --> 05:36:44.360
to your right hand, just holding your hand in both

1905
05:36:44.439 --> 05:36:54.040
of my hands, just pressing gently on the back of

1906
05:36:54.119 --> 05:37:05.000
your hand and stretching your fingers ever so lightly, at

1907
05:37:05.040 --> 05:37:19.840
the same time pressing down and massaging each finger, and

1908
05:37:20.000 --> 05:37:30.599
then starting to massage the palms of the hand. Just

1909
05:37:30.840 --> 05:37:41.959
turning the hand gently, stretching it gently, and actually having

1910
05:37:42.040 --> 05:37:49.240
your hand held can really be an emotional experience. Sometimes,

1911
05:37:50.240 --> 05:37:55.040
even if it is a stranger, someone you don't know

1912
05:37:55.319 --> 05:38:00.119
very well, like a massage person or a thorough this

1913
05:38:00.400 --> 05:38:15.319
maybe because it's intimate and you can feel nice, you

1914
05:38:15.400 --> 05:38:26.000
can feel safe. And as I put that right arm

1915
05:38:26.200 --> 05:38:34.360
back down where it was, we did the same with

1916
05:38:34.520 --> 05:38:46.599
your left arm, exactly the same. Asside in the muscles

1917
05:38:47.759 --> 05:38:51.520
in your arm all the way down to your wrist,

1918
05:38:55.680 --> 05:39:05.479
stroking the inside of your arm, just being gentle or

1919
05:39:05.560 --> 05:39:19.520
as firm as you require, and then massaging your left hand,

1920
05:39:26.040 --> 05:39:36.080
stretching the fingers, gently massaging the palm of your left hand,

1921
05:39:47.959 --> 05:40:15.919
and you can feel so so relaxing, so comforting, and

1922
05:40:16.279 --> 05:40:28.400
just rest your left down, back down. Start to massage

1923
05:40:28.880 --> 05:40:38.680
your back, the biggest part of your body, starting at

1924
05:40:38.720 --> 05:40:44.840
the top, starting again where we already be have been,

1925
05:40:45.599 --> 05:40:50.279
the area at the top in between his shoulders, near

1926
05:40:50.360 --> 05:40:55.520
your neck. Going back, a massage in that area again,

1927
05:40:56.680 --> 05:41:10.400
but this time moving downwards, taking a downward stroke to

1928
05:41:10.400 --> 05:41:16.919
the middle of your back, working from the outside inwards.

1929
05:41:18.159 --> 05:41:25.560
It's a massage in the your back, but the outsides

1930
05:41:25.919 --> 05:41:35.439
of your back, the parts where your arms would maybe

1931
05:41:35.919 --> 05:41:48.639
rest against, almost the path that connects your front to

1932
05:41:48.840 --> 05:42:06.759
your back. Just messaging down firmly but gently, as firm

1933
05:42:06.799 --> 05:42:14.479
as you want. Moving down and then moving across a

1934
05:42:14.520 --> 05:42:18.200
little bit, and moving all the way down again, being

1935
05:42:18.319 --> 05:42:31.159
very gentle yet firm as you choose. Eventually we get

1936
05:42:31.200 --> 05:42:36.240
to the spine. We can message the muscles and either

1937
05:42:36.439 --> 05:42:39.759
side of your spine from the top of your neck

1938
05:42:40.200 --> 05:42:51.680
all the way down to your lower back. We can

1939
05:42:51.799 --> 05:43:01.159
do that a few times. Sometimes people juice the knuckle

1940
05:43:02.080 --> 05:43:07.279
or the two fingers and just go your side of

1941
05:43:07.360 --> 05:43:12.520
the spine. Almost just push down, go all the way

1942
05:43:12.599 --> 05:43:18.720
down to the bottom of the spine, each time releasing

1943
05:43:19.840 --> 05:43:29.919
tension and opening up the body, stretching your body so

1944
05:43:30.119 --> 05:43:37.400
that you feel more relaxed but at the same time rejuvenated.

1945
05:43:48.759 --> 05:43:52.040
And now I'm going to move to one side, to

1946
05:43:52.159 --> 05:43:59.479
your right side, and from the bottom of your ribs

1947
05:44:01.439 --> 05:44:06.959
to your pelvis, I'm going to massage that area of

1948
05:44:07.119 --> 05:44:12.080
your back. I'll stretch over the other side and I

1949
05:44:12.119 --> 05:44:18.759
will pull the muscles gently and massage and push from

1950
05:44:18.799 --> 05:44:21.599
one end that side or the way to my side

1951
05:44:23.680 --> 05:44:26.560
to the middle of fact to where your spine is.

1952
05:44:27.919 --> 05:44:33.479
Massage in that side of your spine the opposite side

1953
05:44:33.560 --> 05:44:41.439
to where I'm standing. It's almost like kneading bread. There's

1954
05:44:41.479 --> 05:44:48.599
that big area which is firm yet lots there to massage.

1955
05:44:53.799 --> 05:44:58.080
Potentially one of the most important places to actually have

1956
05:44:58.639 --> 05:45:06.040
a message because you really feel it. You really feel

1957
05:45:06.240 --> 05:45:11.599
the release and the pleasure of having your lower back massaged.

1958
05:45:14.799 --> 05:45:20.439
It releases so much from your body that's not useful,

1959
05:45:23.680 --> 05:45:29.200
starting a healing process which will continue long after this

1960
05:45:29.439 --> 05:45:41.520
recording is over. The message in this part of your

1961
05:45:41.560 --> 05:45:46.959
body not only feels really good for you, it's actually

1962
05:45:47.080 --> 05:45:51.080
fun to do because it is, as I said, like

1963
05:45:51.319 --> 05:45:56.439
kneading bread, it's a part that you can really get

1964
05:45:56.639 --> 05:46:04.000
hold of and really massage deeply. If that's your choice,

1965
05:46:12.040 --> 05:46:13.919
then I'm going to move over to the other side

1966
05:46:13.959 --> 05:46:20.439
of your body and do the same with the opposite

1967
05:46:20.560 --> 05:46:29.880
part of your lawer back. Kneading and messaging from your

1968
05:46:30.040 --> 05:46:37.520
sides or way to the middle of your back where

1969
05:46:37.520 --> 05:46:51.159
your spine is pressing and kneading firm and gentle at

1970
05:46:51.200 --> 05:47:06.439
the same time. It feels so releasing mixture of pleasure, comfort, release, calmness,

1971
05:47:06.799 --> 05:47:18.439
relaxation or mixed together. Plus there's that feeling from your

1972
05:47:18.520 --> 05:47:23.680
stomach as it's being stretched. Even though you're in your

1973
05:47:23.759 --> 05:47:28.040
stomach now, you can feel it being stretched because that

1974
05:47:28.200 --> 05:47:39.599
whole area is connected to your stomach. Now we're going

1975
05:47:39.680 --> 05:47:44.560
to move or move further up to your top of

1976
05:47:44.639 --> 05:47:49.080
your body, and I we do the same this time,

1977
05:47:50.400 --> 05:47:57.240
starting with your upper back. Put my hands forward over

1978
05:47:58.520 --> 05:48:04.720
and mess it massage in that area up to your spine,

1979
05:48:05.880 --> 05:48:08.479
from the side of your body up to your spine.

1980
05:48:10.279 --> 05:48:16.439
So some of that massage area, that muscle tissue or

1981
05:48:16.479 --> 05:48:20.479
whatever fatty tissue even will be possibly from your chest

1982
05:48:22.319 --> 05:48:26.439
because all connected the chest and the back connect together.

1983
05:48:29.599 --> 05:48:32.840
I'm going to be massaging and just pulling some of

1984
05:48:32.959 --> 05:48:40.919
that skin from your side up and massaging that area

1985
05:48:43.919 --> 05:48:48.040
of your upper back all the way to your spine.

1986
05:48:52.439 --> 05:48:54.680
And then I'll move down a bit and I'll continue

1987
05:48:55.319 --> 05:48:58.080
with the middle of your back, doing exactly the same

1988
05:48:58.159 --> 05:49:16.040
thing as gentle, as deep as you choose. Now move

1989
05:49:16.520 --> 05:49:20.759
the other side again and do the exact same thing

1990
05:49:21.439 --> 05:49:24.520
with the top of your back on the other side,

1991
05:49:25.599 --> 05:49:39.680
from pretty much underneath your arm area really to your spine,

1992
05:49:44.759 --> 05:49:46.119
and then continuing that.

1993
05:49:48.200 --> 05:49:49.360
All the way down.

1994
05:49:50.840 --> 05:50:07.319
Including your lower your middle of your back. Now I'm

1995
05:50:07.400 --> 05:50:12.319
gonna go to your thighs, the backs of your thighs

1996
05:50:15.000 --> 05:50:22.400
and the sides of your thighs, starting with your right leg.

1997
05:50:24.720 --> 05:50:32.119
Massage in the back and the sides of your thighs

1998
05:50:34.560 --> 05:50:40.959
gently and firmly. There's a lot of muscles there. It's

1999
05:50:41.040 --> 05:50:44.279
an area that can be very tense at times and

2000
05:50:44.479 --> 05:50:47.840
maybe needs a little bit more pressure than the rest

2001
05:50:47.919 --> 05:50:56.040
of the body that's up to you. You can gently

2002
05:50:56.200 --> 05:51:03.479
stroke the back of your legs where you know, opposite

2003
05:51:03.560 --> 05:51:09.119
your knee joint or underneath your knee joint, very sensitive,

2004
05:51:09.360 --> 05:51:22.000
gentle area, and then working down to your calf muscles.

2005
05:51:24.919 --> 05:51:31.279
Massage in your calf muscles thoroughly and deeply, if you choose,

2006
05:51:34.759 --> 05:51:51.680
using both hands and fingers, digging deep to your ankles,

2007
05:51:53.959 --> 05:51:59.560
in the back of your back of your ankles, just

2008
05:52:00.279 --> 05:52:11.479
leave massage in that area, maybe lifting the leg and

2009
05:52:12.360 --> 05:52:35.479
stretching a little bit. Moving to the right foot, massage

2010
05:52:35.599 --> 05:52:44.759
in the bottom of your feet and the side of

2011
05:52:44.840 --> 05:52:56.119
your fate gently but firm enough so they don't tickle,

2012
05:53:01.639 --> 05:53:07.119
and just allow the pleasure that you get from having

2013
05:53:07.200 --> 05:53:16.599
your feet massaged to just overtake you as I continue

2014
05:53:16.680 --> 05:53:22.599
to message your feet, the bottoms of your feet, the

2015
05:53:22.840 --> 05:53:31.560
sides your arches, your heel. You can put a lot

2016
05:53:31.599 --> 05:53:37.479
of pressure into your heel and it feels amazing, Yet

2017
05:53:37.520 --> 05:53:45.599
the arches need to be a bit more gentle, stretching

2018
05:53:45.720 --> 05:53:52.000
your toes gently, the message in the bottoms of your

2019
05:53:52.119 --> 05:54:08.319
toes with my fingers, each one individually, moving her to

2020
05:54:08.439 --> 05:54:15.880
the left leg to do exactly the same thing, starting

2021
05:54:17.919 --> 05:54:22.400
at the top of the thighs, work in the back

2022
05:54:22.479 --> 05:54:28.040
of the thighs and the sides, massaging deeply and gently

2023
05:54:30.119 --> 05:54:44.080
the whole area, working all the way down. And this

2024
05:54:44.319 --> 05:54:50.200
is an area that maybe you could like to spend

2025
05:54:50.360 --> 05:54:59.159
more time relaxing and massaging. So perhaps if you wanted

2026
05:54:59.279 --> 05:55:04.119
like a bigger few eature recording where spend more time

2027
05:55:04.240 --> 05:55:15.639
on one particular area. As you move down to your

2028
05:55:15.720 --> 05:55:29.599
calf muscles, massage in your calf muscles firmly and gently,

2029
05:55:35.319 --> 05:55:43.759
moving down your raincor into your feet, Massage in the

2030
05:55:44.240 --> 05:55:54.279
backs of your feet, the bottoms of your feet, stretching

2031
05:55:54.560 --> 05:56:00.880
your toes, and massage in each tone individually. And the

2032
05:56:01.279 --> 05:56:06.720
feeling of pleasure and release that you experience when you're

2033
05:56:06.799 --> 05:56:28.919
having your feet massaged feels really good. Now, she turn

2034
05:56:29.080 --> 05:56:40.200
over in your mind. Laying on your back, I'm just

2035
05:56:40.279 --> 05:56:53.599
going to start again for your neck area, in your shoulders,

2036
05:56:57.599 --> 05:57:08.040
just to get back into much of that area. And

2037
05:57:08.200 --> 05:57:19.799
as you move up, I can clean my hands, make

2038
05:57:19.880 --> 05:57:25.680
them more fresh, because now I'm gonna message your face gently,

2039
05:57:30.080 --> 05:57:40.159
starting off with your forehead. Your eyes are closed, and

2040
05:57:41.279 --> 05:57:47.119
I can just stretch your eyes a little bit, pushing

2041
05:57:47.240 --> 05:58:04.119
up on your eyebrows, just massaging around, just scalp, massaging

2042
05:58:04.319 --> 05:58:14.560
down your cheeks, around your ears, into your jaw gently,

2043
05:58:19.520 --> 05:58:36.560
the side of your neck, your chin mm hmm, and

2044
05:58:36.880 --> 05:58:44.240
just moving down from your neck down to your chest,

2045
05:58:48.040 --> 05:58:52.080
starting by massage in the very top of your chest

2046
05:58:55.880 --> 05:59:01.080
where the collar bone is either side out of the collarbone,

2047
05:59:09.599 --> 05:59:12.799
and then just message in the whole of the chest,

2048
05:59:22.000 --> 05:59:34.040
moving the chest around, because it's quite a large area.

2049
05:59:35.959 --> 05:59:43.439
You can move from one side to the next, moving

2050
05:59:43.799 --> 05:59:54.799
my hands underneath pretty much where your arms are, stretching up,

2051
05:59:56.959 --> 05:59:59.959
stretching some of the muscles of your back in the process,

2052
06:00:05.319 --> 06:00:13.959
moving up over your chest and they're moving down again,

2053
06:00:26.560 --> 06:00:31.360
and then allowing my hands to just massage gently and

2054
06:00:31.680 --> 06:00:38.400
slide down towards your stomach, starting in the middle of

2055
06:00:38.520 --> 06:00:48.080
your chest, and then gradually my hands moving apart and

2056
06:00:48.400 --> 06:00:54.040
massage in and slide in at the same time, moving

2057
06:00:54.159 --> 06:01:12.919
down to just below your rib cage, moving down, then

2058
06:01:13.040 --> 06:01:22.279
messaging up again, giving your chest all the attention that

2059
06:01:22.400 --> 06:01:36.840
it needs. To feel completely relaxed, remembering them. I'm also

2060
06:01:37.000 --> 06:01:42.240
going to be focusing on your sides as well, an

2061
06:01:42.360 --> 06:01:48.639
area that really doesn't get much attention but feels really

2062
06:01:48.759 --> 06:01:58.959
good when it's massaged. Just stroking my hands down the

2063
06:01:59.159 --> 06:02:06.119
sides of your body, just below your arms, all the

2064
06:02:06.200 --> 06:02:19.599
way down to your hips. Now move into your stomach area.

2065
06:02:21.639 --> 06:02:25.000
I'm going to stand one side of you like I

2066
06:02:25.119 --> 06:02:29.599
did when I did your lower back. We're gonna do

2067
06:02:29.680 --> 06:02:35.720
a similar process of just stretching the muscles from your side,

2068
06:02:39.240 --> 06:02:51.240
gently massaging from one side to the next, move in

2069
06:02:53.840 --> 06:02:58.040
a whole area from below your ribs all the way

2070
06:02:58.159 --> 06:03:09.119
down to below belly button, and then move around to

2071
06:03:09.200 --> 06:03:25.400
the other side of you and repeat that process of relaxing, deeply, calmly.

2072
06:03:28.560 --> 06:03:35.720
You feel loose, You feel free. And it's something about

2073
06:03:35.840 --> 06:03:40.680
having your stomach message that's different from any other part

2074
06:03:44.200 --> 06:03:48.720
because we do have a tendency of holding a different

2075
06:03:48.880 --> 06:03:52.880
kind of stress in our stomachs that we may not

2076
06:03:53.040 --> 06:04:04.040
be aware of. As an your message your stomach in

2077
06:04:04.159 --> 06:04:11.639
front of your stomach, making circles around your belly button,

2078
06:04:17.319 --> 06:04:26.919
and then going the other way around. There's a gentleness

2079
06:04:27.119 --> 06:04:33.080
and a freedom that comes from feeling how you're feeling

2080
06:04:38.599 --> 06:04:43.279
as a Now, move down the tops of your thighs,

2081
06:04:45.040 --> 06:04:50.840
the muscles, massaging them, and I can do this two

2082
06:04:51.000 --> 06:05:01.279
legs at the same time, pressing down, massaging deeply those

2083
06:05:01.439 --> 06:05:10.479
muscles in your thighs, at front of your thighs, and

2084
06:05:10.720 --> 06:05:21.880
moving down to your knees, gently massaging your knees, Sliding

2085
06:05:22.040 --> 06:05:27.520
down your shins, putting pressure on either side of your

2086
06:05:27.639 --> 06:05:40.439
shin gently softly but firmly, moving down to your ankles,

2087
06:05:45.400 --> 06:05:55.040
stroking the tops of your feet, and then with each

2088
06:05:56.400 --> 06:06:01.639
foot in each hand, just gently message nudging the whole

2089
06:06:01.759 --> 06:06:10.680
of the foot, the top, the bottom, your heel, your ankle,

2090
06:06:11.560 --> 06:06:22.560
your toes, message in every part of your feet. It

2091
06:06:22.799 --> 06:06:28.840
feels so good just to let go and enjoy the process.

2092
06:06:34.479 --> 06:06:53.319
Enjoy feeling so deeply relaxed. So much comfort and so

2093
06:06:53.520 --> 06:07:10.279
many feelings come just from touching your skin. And you

2094
06:07:10.400 --> 06:07:16.639
can just lie there for as long as you choose,

2095
06:07:20.599 --> 06:07:32.400
enjoying the feeling of deep comfort from being massaged by me.

2096
06:07:39.599 --> 06:08:00.840
Enjoy feeling deeply relaxed. And all we're going to do

2097
06:08:01.520 --> 06:08:21.520
is blow out some candles. In your mind, there are

2098
06:08:21.560 --> 06:08:31.799
going to be a hundred candles, and you're going to

2099
06:08:31.840 --> 06:08:42.080
blow each one out individually, one by one, starting at

2100
06:08:42.119 --> 06:08:50.680
one hundred. As I count down all the way down

2101
06:08:50.759 --> 06:09:03.599
to one, and each time I say a number, you

2102
06:09:03.720 --> 06:09:10.680
can imagine that candle in front of you, and I'd

2103
06:09:10.840 --> 06:09:20.240
like you to actually physically gently blow that candle out,

2104
06:09:26.560 --> 06:09:38.720
just so it's not big blows, just a gentle, and

2105
06:09:38.959 --> 06:09:48.520
that candle will extinguish. And then I'll say the next

2106
06:09:48.639 --> 06:09:59.520
number to move down, and you can just blow that

2107
06:09:59.639 --> 06:10:09.639
one out as well. And as we move down the numbers,

2108
06:10:14.159 --> 06:10:22.880
you'll find yourself feeling more and more relaxed. If you

2109
06:10:23.040 --> 06:10:32.159
need to sleep, you'll also find yourself becoming incredibly tired

2110
06:10:33.400 --> 06:10:44.720
and sleepy. In fact, you may struggle to blow out

2111
06:10:44.880 --> 06:11:01.759
all one hundred of these candles as you feel more

2112
06:11:01.880 --> 06:11:29.560
and more deeply relaxed, more and more deeply tired, And

2113
06:11:29.560 --> 06:11:39.720
the further you go down, the more your mind starts

2114
06:11:40.200 --> 06:11:51.720
to drift. You may find that you stop listening to

2115
06:11:51.919 --> 06:12:04.360
me after a while. And even though there may be

2116
06:12:05.360 --> 06:12:13.360
background sounds where you are, you'll be aware of those

2117
06:12:13.520 --> 06:12:32.400
sounds at the moment, be may start to just not

2118
06:12:32.639 --> 06:12:52.159
even notice them at all because they're unimportant. Where I am,

2119
06:12:54.759 --> 06:12:59.520
I've got the sounds of the birds, there's horrors, the

2120
06:12:59.599 --> 06:13:07.560
pigeon who likes to say hello sometimes, and there's the

2121
06:13:07.599 --> 06:13:18.200
odd plane that goes by, maybe traffic and trains in

2122
06:13:18.279 --> 06:13:30.599
the distance, But none of that scene as important whatsoever.

2123
06:13:35.319 --> 06:13:49.880
More candles you blow out less important. Anything is. More

2124
06:13:50.279 --> 06:14:01.119
candles you blow out, the further you seem to move

2125
06:14:01.759 --> 06:14:21.080
away from sounds and from general date days, stuff seems

2126
06:14:21.319 --> 06:14:35.439
to just move away on its own. You feel more

2127
06:14:38.000 --> 06:14:58.680
calm with every candle you blow out, guiding you to

2128
06:14:58.840 --> 06:15:11.919
the next number. Do you hear me say? And then

2129
06:15:12.040 --> 06:15:29.680

2166
07:14:38.319 --> 07:14:59.000
Candle leto of all of those thoughts, worries, concerns about

2167
07:14:59.040 --> 07:15:05.599
the past, thoughts about the future, and even things you've

2168
07:15:05.639 --> 07:15:13.400
been thinking about today, just let it all go because

2169
07:15:13.439 --> 07:15:21.080
none of it is useful in this moment. This is

2170
07:15:22.080 --> 07:15:41.520
your opportunity to just focus on feeling relaxed, allowing yourself

2171
07:15:41.680 --> 07:15:49.439
to get in touch with that natural sense of peace

2172
07:15:52.119 --> 07:15:57.759
that we all have within us. It's available for everyone.

2173
07:15:58.919 --> 07:16:03.840
It just sometimes takes a little bit of effort to

2174
07:16:04.000 --> 07:16:10.080
set up the right time and place in order for

2175
07:16:10.159 --> 07:16:17.080
you to just let go. Because when you do decide

2176
07:16:19.479 --> 07:16:24.799
to let go and relax, that's what your body starts

2177
07:16:24.880 --> 07:16:35.119
to do. Because you've chosen, You've chosen to just allow

2178
07:16:35.279 --> 07:16:41.119
your body to unwind and your mind starts to slow down,

2179
07:16:44.479 --> 07:16:48.880
and it's a nice feeling. It's a nice feeling at

2180
07:16:48.919 --> 07:16:54.840
the beginning, just to know that you have chosen to

2181
07:16:55.000 --> 07:17:04.040
decide to relax deeply, and because you've made that decision,

2182
07:17:05.840 --> 07:17:12.880
your body will just follow suit. Because sometimes all the

2183
07:17:13.040 --> 07:17:17.759
muscles in your body need is just permission from you

2184
07:17:18.840 --> 07:17:27.319
to relax, because so often we're busy, we're going from

2185
07:17:27.400 --> 07:17:31.360
here to there, we're walking around, and we're doing stuff,

2186
07:17:33.680 --> 07:17:40.040
and the body doesn't have any time or space to

2187
07:17:40.240 --> 07:17:47.200
really relax deeply. So it kind of waits for you

2188
07:17:47.520 --> 07:17:56.680
to lead the way, waits for your permission. And when

2189
07:17:56.720 --> 07:18:03.319
you do give you permission, when you give to say

2190
07:18:03.400 --> 07:18:09.799
so we need say okay, it's time for your body

2191
07:18:11.439 --> 07:18:20.400
to let go completely and relax totally, your body just follows.

2192
07:18:23.400 --> 07:18:28.799
It's like a breath of relief. Ah good, I can

2193
07:18:28.919 --> 07:18:35.919
now relax. That feeling at the end of a day,

2194
07:18:36.000 --> 07:18:39.720
of a very physical day that you may experience in

2195
07:18:39.840 --> 07:18:43.400
the past. But you get home and you just sit

2196
07:18:43.560 --> 07:18:47.479
down on a chair, maybe you kick your shoes off,

2197
07:18:47.560 --> 07:18:54.119
and ah, feels so nice knowing that you don't have

2198
07:18:54.279 --> 07:18:57.759
to get up again for a little while. At least,

2199
07:18:58.919 --> 07:19:01.560
if you choose, you can just sit there for maybe

2200
07:19:01.599 --> 07:19:14.639
an hour to it feels blissful, and just by sitting

2201
07:19:14.840 --> 07:19:20.040
down like that, your body knows that it's time to relax.

2202
07:19:21.680 --> 07:19:27.520
Your body has been given permission from you. Because it's

2203
07:19:27.599 --> 07:19:37.799
a mindset in your mind, you're prepared to let go

2204
07:19:37.959 --> 07:19:48.040
of everything and just completely allow all of thestress of

2205
07:19:48.119 --> 07:19:59.680
your body to evaporate. Any tensions can just gradually and

2206
07:20:06.560 --> 07:20:18.240
it's almost like magic, really because that sense of relaxation

2207
07:20:18.599 --> 07:20:24.560
in your body, it's a very natural state. It's not

2208
07:20:24.759 --> 07:20:29.599
something unusual. It may feel unusual when you first start

2209
07:20:29.680 --> 07:20:34.159
to relax if you if you haven't really spent a

2210
07:20:34.240 --> 07:20:38.479
lot of time focusing and giving yourself this space to

2211
07:20:38.639 --> 07:20:43.959
let go completely and relax, they seem more most alien,

2212
07:20:45.799 --> 07:20:51.720
but it isn't. It's actually the most natural thing in

2213
07:20:51.799 --> 07:21:02.040
the world to let go completely, to relax totally, the

2214
07:21:02.200 --> 07:21:13.159
most natural thing in the world to allow yourself to

2215
07:21:13.400 --> 07:21:21.200
feel really calm in your mind. And it is almost

2216
07:21:21.840 --> 07:21:28.919
like a literal unwinding. It's like you press a button

2217
07:21:31.560 --> 07:21:37.959
and all the tension just releases, and it's like a wheel,

2218
07:21:38.360 --> 07:21:42.560
like a cog, like the inside of a clock, just unwinding,

2219
07:21:43.240 --> 07:21:47.119
and it's almost like you could see the little wind

2220
07:21:47.240 --> 07:21:53.080
up knob that's used just going the opposite way that

2221
07:21:53.200 --> 07:21:59.080
you choose to wind it up, and the energy that

2222
07:21:59.360 --> 07:22:09.560
fremit it stress for energy gradually winding down, losing its power,

2223
07:22:10.840 --> 07:22:18.279
losing its strength as a sense of relaxation becomes stronger

2224
07:22:19.479 --> 07:22:29.000
and deeper, and you may find a the more relaxed

2225
07:22:30.360 --> 07:22:41.759
you feel, that your mind starts to wonder, maybe seemed

2226
07:22:41.799 --> 07:22:46.040
to stop listening to me for a while, Your mind

2227
07:22:46.200 --> 07:22:51.400
goes somewhere else, and then you realize you're listening to

2228
07:22:51.520 --> 07:22:57.919
me again, and that is just your mind drifting to sleep,

2229
07:23:01.159 --> 07:23:11.319
which is quite natural, because sometimes when we're stressed and tense,

2230
07:23:12.639 --> 07:23:16.520
we may not actually be aware of what we need,

2231
07:23:17.639 --> 07:23:26.080
what we physically or emotionally need in this moment. But

2232
07:23:26.240 --> 07:23:32.520
when you allow your body and mind to relax completely

2233
07:23:34.240 --> 07:23:41.479
and you let go of all thoughts, concerns, worries, ideas,

2234
07:23:42.959 --> 07:23:47.479
all letting them go, allow them to drop onto the floor.

2235
07:23:52.759 --> 07:23:58.759
When you start to get in touch with the feelings

2236
07:23:58.959 --> 07:24:10.639
of such relaxation, this feels so nice, to be in

2237
07:24:10.880 --> 07:24:17.639
touch with the calmness of the different body parts as

2238
07:24:17.759 --> 07:24:33.439
they become looser and looser. Even your breathing seems easier

2239
07:24:34.119 --> 07:24:43.520
and more natural, effortless as that cool adenters through your

2240
07:24:43.680 --> 07:24:54.000
mouth or nose into your lungs, breathing in comforts and relaxation,

2241
07:24:56.639 --> 07:25:02.080
and in just breathing out any ex tess remain intention

2242
07:25:02.520 --> 07:25:09.599
or stress from every part of your body and mind.

2243
07:25:13.159 --> 07:25:17.759
And as you start to focus on your mind, maybe

2244
07:25:18.319 --> 07:25:25.799
you notice that things have come to a standstill or

2245
07:25:25.919 --> 07:25:35.040
maybe just much much lower than before, because your mind

2246
07:25:35.240 --> 07:25:45.759
is not really needed when listening to my voice, which

2247
07:25:45.840 --> 07:25:52.319
allows your mind to relax just as deeply as your body.

2248
07:25:55.080 --> 07:26:02.880
And that's synchronicity between the real vexation of your body

2249
07:26:03.279 --> 07:26:15.000
and relaxation of your mind. Let you know that feeling

2250
07:26:16.040 --> 07:26:28.400
completely calm, loose, and relaxed really is a great healing

2251
07:26:29.439 --> 07:26:46.759
experience fear and has so many positive benefits for your body, mind,

2252
07:26:47.159 --> 07:26:54.240
and your life. To be able to let go everything

2253
07:26:55.959 --> 07:27:04.599
and to relax completely in all parts of your body

2254
07:27:06.000 --> 07:27:15.119
and mind, even your bones as a rexed, All your

2255
07:27:15.319 --> 07:27:28.360
muscles are relaxed, even the skin that covers your body

2256
07:27:31.279 --> 07:27:48.840
is relaxed. Every hair that you have is also deeply relaxed,

2257
07:27:55.000 --> 07:28:03.840
and your brain it starts to feel the benefits.

2258
07:28:05.159 --> 07:28:05.479
Of this.

2259
07:28:07.119 --> 07:28:19.279
Healing relaxation. And then as you focus on the inside

2260
07:28:19.439 --> 07:28:24.639
of your scalp, where your brain is. You can start

2261
07:28:25.240 --> 07:28:39.680
to realize and notice the benefits of your brain relaxing deeply. Then,

2262
07:28:39.759 --> 07:28:51.200
as your brain continues to relax sends those messages to

2263
07:28:52.000 --> 07:28:53.880
the rest of your body.

2264
07:28:55.439 --> 07:28:57.319
And your mind.

2265
07:28:58.919 --> 07:29:21.720
To re relax even more deeply, relaxy more completely, letting

2266
07:29:21.959 --> 07:29:33.680
go of any remaining forces or consers, allow them just

2267
07:29:33.919 --> 07:29:40.439
to drop onto the floor because they're no longer necessary

2268
07:29:41.720 --> 07:29:53.560
in this moment, In this moment of deep relaxation and calmness,

2269
07:29:55.880 --> 07:30:22.520
filling your brain with deep concentrated heathing, calming, relaxing every

2270
07:30:23.200 --> 07:30:40.360

07:35:33.439 --> 07:35:39.799
going to do a body scan, focusing on firstly how

2290
07:35:39.880 --> 07:35:45.200
you feel in your body, not trying to change how

2291
07:35:45.279 --> 07:35:51.080
you feel, not trying to relax, not trying to move

2292
07:35:51.159 --> 07:35:58.000
away from any discomfort or stress or tension, just accepting

2293
07:35:59.520 --> 07:36:04.639
absurd and accepting how you feel in the different parts

2294
07:36:04.720 --> 07:36:11.400
of your body, just allowing yourself to be exactly as

2295
07:36:11.479 --> 07:36:22.959
you are, to notice to get in touch with how

2296
07:36:23.040 --> 07:36:29.959
you actually feel in this moment. So I'm going to

2297
07:36:30.119 --> 07:36:41.400
start off by focusing on your hands. Just be aware

2298
07:36:41.439 --> 07:36:49.919
of your hands. I'd like you to move your hands around,

2299
07:36:51.360 --> 07:36:56.919
just maybe move your fingers a little bit. I've been

2300
07:36:57.000 --> 07:37:03.040
and closing your hands very gentle, just so that you

2301
07:37:03.279 --> 07:37:11.080
can get in touch with how your hands and your

2302
07:37:11.279 --> 07:37:32.639
fingers fell very very slow movements. Focusing now on your feet,

2303
07:37:36.720 --> 07:37:40.000
and if you can just do kind of an equivalent

2304
07:37:40.720 --> 07:37:45.040
with your feet is you've just done with your hands.

2305
07:37:46.400 --> 07:37:55.279
Maybe turn in your ankles, moving your feet around, moving

2306
07:37:55.360 --> 07:38:05.360
your toes gently, but only very gently and very slowly,

2307
07:38:08.360 --> 07:38:23.759
noticing how your feet fell in this moment. Focusing now

2308
07:38:24.000 --> 07:38:31.200
and your eyes. I'd like you to just focus on

2309
07:38:31.319 --> 07:38:37.080
your eyelids. Maybe you can open and close your eyes

2310
07:38:37.279 --> 07:38:41.639
a couple of times to really get in touch with

2311
07:38:42.479 --> 07:38:47.200
how you feel when you do close your eyes. The

2312
07:38:47.319 --> 07:38:53.560
muscle changes in your eyes when you do close them,

2313
07:38:56.400 --> 07:39:02.759
maybe raising your eyebrows. It stretches the tops of your eyes,

2314
07:39:06.000 --> 07:39:14.439
perhaps quinting your eyes, scrunching up your eyes, just so

2315
07:39:14.599 --> 07:39:23.000
you can hear it again, touch with all aspects of

2316
07:39:24.200 --> 07:39:42.319
how your eyes feel. Right now. Now, focus in on

2317
07:39:42.520 --> 07:39:46.919
your thighs, and you know it just starts you to

2318
07:39:47.520 --> 07:39:57.479
gently tense your thighs, just very very gently, just enough

2319
07:39:58.799 --> 07:40:10.759
so you can become more atchuned to the physical sensation

2320
07:40:12.520 --> 07:40:17.680
of your upper legs, the front of your thighs, and

2321
07:40:17.799 --> 07:40:31.159
the backs of your thighs, noticing and observing how your

2322
07:40:31.319 --> 07:40:46.400
thighs fear. Right now, moving your focus to the back

2323
07:40:46.479 --> 07:40:53.040
of your neck, just noticing the back of your neck,

2324
07:40:54.520 --> 07:40:59.759
the muscles, and of course they lead to the side

2325
07:40:59.759 --> 07:41:03.880
of your your neck. They also lead to the top

2326
07:41:03.959 --> 07:41:10.279
of your back, which leads to your shoulders. So as

2327
07:41:10.319 --> 07:41:16.159
your focus on the back of your neck, maybe you

2328
07:41:16.319 --> 07:41:22.959
can move your head gently upwards as if you're looking up.

2329
07:41:24.919 --> 07:41:30.560
Maybe moving your head down as if you're looking down.

2330
07:41:33.680 --> 07:41:38.560
Perhaps moving your head side to side, right to left,

2331
07:41:40.479 --> 07:41:51.759
but only very slowly, very gently. I'm not trying to

2332
07:41:52.159 --> 07:42:03.040
force anything. It has to be very very gentle, just

2333
07:42:03.680 --> 07:42:04.959
so you can.

2334
07:42:06.520 --> 07:42:08.119
Be more.

2335
07:42:09.759 --> 07:42:19.159
In touch with the feelings, with the sensations, the physical

2336
07:42:20.560 --> 07:42:29.840
sensations of how the back of your neck feels. Right now,

2337
07:42:37.439 --> 07:42:45.360
as we now focus on the tops of your arms,

2338
07:42:47.759 --> 07:42:52.599
the parts where your biceps and your triceps are between

2339
07:42:52.639 --> 07:42:59.959
your elbow and your shoulders, should focus on those part

2340
07:43:00.159 --> 07:43:06.759
arts the tops of your arms. You may like to

2341
07:43:07.000 --> 07:43:18.840
just tense them, but very very gently and slowly, so

2342
07:43:19.000 --> 07:43:27.759
you're not straining or put in any pressure whatsoever on

2343
07:43:27.959 --> 07:43:37.400
your arms. It's just so that you can gain more

2344
07:43:37.759 --> 07:43:45.959
of a sense of how your upper arms are feeling

2345
07:43:48.200 --> 07:43:59.319
in this moment, and just noticing as you gently, very

2346
07:43:59.599 --> 07:44:08.639
gently and slowly tighten the muscles and then let go.

2347
07:44:12.919 --> 07:44:21.360
Notice how the tops of your arms feel right now,

2348
07:44:29.520 --> 07:44:40.319
as in now, focus on your stomach, the area the

2349
07:44:40.439 --> 07:44:46.759
lower abdomen area below your belly button, moving all the

2350
07:44:46.840 --> 07:45:00.560
way down to your hips, just above your grind. Maybe

2351
07:45:00.799 --> 07:45:08.400
you're able to tense these muscles in the area very

2352
07:45:10.680 --> 07:45:23.959
very gently and slowly. If that's a difficult thing to do,

2353
07:45:25.400 --> 07:45:34.400
maybe you can just move your body, pushing your stomach up,

2354
07:45:36.080 --> 07:45:39.959
maybe moving a little bit to a side using your hips,

2355
07:45:42.119 --> 07:45:50.279
just so you can get more in tune with how

2356
07:45:50.479 --> 07:46:02.840
you're lower appto an area is feeling in this moment.

2357
07:46:09.439 --> 07:46:32.000
Just noticing the physical sensations of your lower abdomen as

2358
07:46:32.040 --> 07:46:44.959
you move your attention to your mouth, notice in your

2359
07:46:45.200 --> 07:46:56.080
lips and inside your mouth, the teeth, your guns, your tongue.

2360
07:47:05.680 --> 07:47:14.319
Just noticing how your tongue and your mouth feels. It

2361
07:47:14.479 --> 07:47:23.479
may help by moving your tongue around your mouth, moving

2362
07:47:23.560 --> 07:47:30.959
it to your left, maybe pressing it gently against the

2363
07:47:31.200 --> 07:47:37.400
side of your mouth, and then to the right, gently

2364
07:47:37.919 --> 07:47:44.599
to the side of your mouth, perhaps pressing up against

2365
07:47:44.720 --> 07:47:52.720
the top of your mouth, and then down gently against

2366
07:47:52.799 --> 07:48:00.119
the bottom of your mouth, always very slowly.

2367
07:48:03.080 --> 07:48:04.279
And a very.

2368
07:48:06.720 --> 07:48:23.759
Very gentle so that you can be aware of how

2369
07:48:24.000 --> 07:48:45.919
you feel in your mouth area. Now I'm going to

2370
07:48:46.159 --> 07:49:01.720
focus on your wrists, and I'm going to ask you

2371
07:49:02.119 --> 07:49:10.919
to maybe just rotate your wrists by moving your hands

2372
07:49:12.279 --> 07:49:25.200
in a circular motion very gently and slowly, just so

2373
07:49:25.639 --> 07:49:43.159
that you can feel the sensations that you are currently

2374
07:49:44.880 --> 07:49:59.520
experiencing in your wrists. Perhaps move in your hands up

2375
07:50:00.040 --> 07:50:25.200
and down again very very gently and slowly, very gentzel

2376
07:50:29.439 --> 07:50:54.919
and slow, as you now start to observe you lower back.

2377
07:51:00.560 --> 07:51:02.279
The bad part is.

2378
07:51:03.880 --> 07:51:20.040
Just above your hips, where your coxix are a whole

2379
07:51:20.319 --> 07:51:26.919
area which also really does include the sides of your

2380
07:51:26.959 --> 07:51:37.880
body because those muscles are very much connected. There's those

2381
07:51:38.080 --> 07:51:45.720
muscles also move into your hip area connecting to your buttocks,

2382
07:51:48.799 --> 07:52:03.599
the sides of your hips, and if you're physically able

2383
07:52:03.799 --> 07:52:13.000
to do so, maybe you can very gently just move

2384
07:52:13.159 --> 07:52:26.880
your body ever so slightly, very slowly some side, decide.

2385
07:52:29.880 --> 07:52:30.799
Just enough.

2386
07:52:33.200 --> 07:52:46.759
Ye s gauge how you feel in your lower back,

2387
07:52:54.319 --> 07:53:04.759
perhaps secutive, even move your hips gently up and down,

2388
07:53:08.560 --> 07:53:15.000
gently and slowly in order to.

2389
07:53:19.560 --> 07:53:21.080
Be in touch.

2390
07:53:23.439 --> 07:53:46.840
With the physical sensations of your lower back. As we

2391
07:53:47.159 --> 07:54:02.959
now live, your attention to your jaw, that area from

2392
07:54:03.000 --> 07:54:08.240
your chin all the way up to near where your

2393
07:54:08.439 --> 07:54:27.240
ears are. Of your jaw, you can just if it's

2394
07:54:27.400 --> 07:54:37.279
okay to do so. Gently open your mouth, not wide,

2395
07:54:37.799 --> 07:54:48.799
no stretching, just very gently and slowly opening your mouth

2396
07:54:52.720 --> 07:55:11.240
thing closing your mouth very gently and slowly so you

2397
07:55:11.360 --> 07:55:28.159
can be in touch with how your jaw feels. Now,

2398
07:55:55.040 --> 07:56:10.840
not to sing now. Your chest area. You don't need

2399
07:56:11.040 --> 07:56:18.720
to do anything to move your chest because it moves

2400
07:56:19.200 --> 07:56:31.080
every time you breathe, and it moves very gently and

2401
07:56:31.759 --> 07:56:49.919
slowly automatically relie breath you take as you focus on

2402
07:56:52.479 --> 07:57:36.439
how your chest. Else, when you breathe, move in your

2403
07:57:36.720 --> 07:57:51.919
focus to your forearms, your elbows. Maybe you're able to

2404
07:57:54.720 --> 07:57:56.479
very gently.

2405
07:57:57.919 --> 07:57:59.799
And slowly.

2406
07:58:01.759 --> 07:58:10.319
Tense the muscles in your forearms, and when you do that,

2407
07:58:10.799 --> 07:58:34.360
you can feel your elbows as well, very gently and slowly,

2408
07:58:42.799 --> 07:59:23.599
gently and softly obsad your forearms and helpers no focus

2409
07:59:30.759 --> 07:59:42.799
the rest of your back, your upper back in the middle,

2410
07:59:44.360 --> 08:00:00.360
the middle of your back. Again, this part lots of

2411
08:00:00.439 --> 08:00:15.319
your body news. Also, every time you pray, you may

2412
08:00:15.400 --> 08:00:29.400
not notice that usually makes you observe your upper back

2413
08:00:29.799 --> 08:00:37.360
in the middle of your back. You can really feel

2414
08:00:39.840 --> 08:01:34.919
that gentle and slow movement. Moving your focus into your

2415
08:01:35.400 --> 08:01:48.639
head area of buttees your brain, there's muscles and those

2416
08:01:48.840 --> 08:02:28.840
bones in your midsection. Just noticing how your hips feel.

2417
08:02:32.000 --> 08:02:49.840
Right now, you can very very gently move your hips,

2418
08:02:54.799 --> 08:03:34.240
maybe side to side, very gently and very cantly, softly

2419
08:03:42.000 --> 08:04:05.119
and snow. Everything starts to slow down, including the thoughts

2420
08:04:05.279 --> 08:04:15.439
in your mind and your mind itself just starts to gradually.

2421
08:04:17.439 --> 08:04:23.599
It doesn't have to be instant, but just gradually starting

2422
08:04:23.880 --> 08:04:33.479
to It's almost like time is storing chin. It's a

2423
08:04:33.680 --> 08:04:41.799
slower pace to maybe what you're used to in your

2424
08:04:41.959 --> 08:04:53.200
day to day life. It's a slower movement of energy,

2425
08:05:04.000 --> 08:05:16.959
very small movements which make up the larger movements, which

2426
08:05:17.000 --> 08:05:23.240
is always the case. Now, when you move your hand,

2427
08:05:24.840 --> 08:05:27.599
it might seem like it's one movement, but it's lots

2428
08:05:27.680 --> 08:05:35.599
of minute different muscles moving in accordance with each other.

2429
08:05:35.919 --> 08:05:47.880
And what happens in this space that we're sharing is

2430
08:05:53.240 --> 08:06:07.439
we move from that big movement into those smaller movements,

2431
08:06:13.880 --> 08:06:25.080
starting to focus on how your body feels, not just

2432
08:06:25.200 --> 08:06:29.720
as a whole, not just oh, i'm feel in this way.

2433
08:06:29.799 --> 08:06:35.919
I'm feeling stressed or tense, or I'm feeling relaxed and calm.

2434
08:06:37.200 --> 08:06:43.799
I'm feeling this way I'm feeling that way. Starting to

2435
08:06:44.040 --> 08:06:55.240
notice that your body begins to present to you small

2436
08:06:56.400 --> 08:07:12.759
feelings around your body, small physical sensations in your legs,

2437
08:07:15.520 --> 08:07:28.720
whether pleasurable or not. Maybe resisting the temptation to label

2438
08:07:28.799 --> 08:07:38.360
them or to judge them, those feelings, just thinking them,

2439
08:07:39.240 --> 08:07:52.200
thinking about them as just being neutral, just feelings, not

2440
08:07:52.439 --> 08:08:03.959
being particularly concerned, but just noticing your body is telling

2441
08:08:04.040 --> 08:08:17.560
you the feelings in your arms, instead of feeling the

2442
08:08:17.759 --> 08:08:27.840
hole of the arm, maybe notice those individual feelings, all

2443
08:08:27.880 --> 08:08:39.919
those different muscles and the skin, the hairs of your arms,

2444
08:08:41.880 --> 08:08:55.919
all the internal parts of your arms, the veins, the bones,

2445
08:08:58.799 --> 08:09:04.840
just being aware of maybe your elbow on your right

2446
08:09:05.040 --> 08:09:15.639
arm has a certain feeling. Maybe your left wrist also

2447
08:09:15.919 --> 08:09:25.200
has its own individual physical sensation.

2448
08:09:37.639 --> 08:09:44.360
What about your forearm on your right arm, your right forearm,

2449
08:09:51.720 --> 08:09:54.680
there may not be any particular.

2450
08:09:55.959 --> 08:10:04.400
Feeling that you could even give the name too, may

2451
08:10:04.479 --> 08:10:09.599
not feel like anything other than just a feeling. You

2452
08:10:09.680 --> 08:10:21.799
know it's there. The feelings in your shoulders, perhaps your

2453
08:10:21.840 --> 08:10:25.680
shoulders when you think about them, kind of almost like

2454
08:10:25.840 --> 08:10:32.479
they're the same, you know, the same feeling, almost like

2455
08:10:32.639 --> 08:10:37.119
you both of your shoulders are just one thing. Of

2456
08:10:37.279 --> 08:10:48.479
course they're not and when you focus on your left

2457
08:10:48.520 --> 08:10:56.680
shoulder and then on your right shoulder, maybe find that

2458
08:10:56.840 --> 08:11:02.200
you move the muscles a little bit, maybe tense the

2459
08:11:02.319 --> 08:11:28.400
muscles gently, noticing the difference in each shoulder, your lower back,

2460
08:11:41.279 --> 08:11:44.959
the left side of your lower back and the right

2461
08:11:45.200 --> 08:11:56.159
side of your lower back. Of course that connection to

2462
08:11:56.279 --> 08:12:08.759
your buttocks and to your hips, and also moving up

2463
08:12:09.520 --> 08:12:22.759
into the middle of your back. And sometimes like right now,

2464
08:12:22.919 --> 08:12:27.680
actually when I focus on their part, when I focused

2465
08:12:27.720 --> 08:12:33.599
on my buttocks and then I focused on the middle

2466
08:12:33.639 --> 08:12:36.520
of my back, it almost felt like the muscles in

2467
08:12:36.599 --> 08:12:46.639
my lower back were being stretched very gently, just stretched

2468
08:12:46.720 --> 08:12:53.279
a little bit. Even though I wasn't doing anything to

2469
08:12:54.680 --> 08:13:00.400
try to stretch your lower back, it just seemed to happen.

2470
08:13:01.599 --> 08:13:18.799
The feeling of very gently stretching your lower back comes

2471
08:13:18.880 --> 08:13:47.880
along feeling in your chest, just noticing what sensations you

2472
08:13:48.599 --> 08:14:05.599
are experiencing in your chest right now. And there's so

2473
08:14:05.840 --> 08:14:10.240
much of the chest. Obviously there's the collar bone leading

2474
08:14:10.439 --> 08:14:16.840
to the chest. You've got the chest bone, You've got

2475
08:14:16.880 --> 08:14:25.000
the muscles in your chest, and of course, if you're female,

2476
08:14:25.680 --> 08:14:32.599
there's possibly the breasts. If you're male, you've.

2477
08:14:32.520 --> 08:14:32.919
Got the.

2478
08:14:35.720 --> 08:14:41.279
Different Well, why not that different these days, but there

2479
08:14:41.360 --> 08:14:46.520
may be more muscles at the top of the chest,

2480
08:14:49.919 --> 08:14:54.200
but at the side underneath it's pretty much the same.

2481
08:14:54.959 --> 08:14:58.040
Whether you're a man or a woman, there's muscles there.

2482
08:14:59.360 --> 08:15:05.360
Muscles stretch out to your back as well as breast tissue.

2483
08:15:05.439 --> 08:15:13.560
It stretches and moves into your back to just being

2484
08:15:13.599 --> 08:15:33.080
aware of your chest, being with whatever feeling there is

2485
08:15:34.520 --> 08:15:53.240
in your chest. When I noticed that, I focus on

2486
08:15:53.360 --> 08:16:00.639
my chest, I feel it in my mind my back

2487
08:16:00.840 --> 08:16:04.599
and went upper back. I mean, I guess the obvious

2488
08:16:04.720 --> 08:16:12.360
reason would be because you know, I'll breathe in in

2489
08:16:15.080 --> 08:16:18.240
and it stretches my chest and my back at the

2490
08:16:18.319 --> 08:16:39.040
same time. It feels it feels okay, it doesn't feel

2491
08:16:41.720 --> 08:16:45.959
I got a little bit of pain in my right chest,

2492
08:16:48.240 --> 08:16:51.520
a little bit not pain, but a little discomfort, maybe

2493
08:16:53.279 --> 08:17:01.400
stiffness possibly, I don't know. I notice my shoulders are

2494
08:17:01.439 --> 08:17:10.400
also wanting to flex for some reason. I think that's

2495
08:17:10.439 --> 08:17:18.759
probably part of my upper back, that connection between my

2496
08:17:18.919 --> 08:17:23.000
shoulders and my other back, because I can move my

2497
08:17:23.080 --> 08:17:30.360
shoulders and stretch the muscles in my back, moving the

2498
08:17:30.439 --> 08:17:36.959
shoulders backwards or up, which then moves. I think it's

2499
08:17:37.040 --> 08:17:52.720
the scapulous in your back. It feels quite nice. Actually,

2500
08:17:58.080 --> 08:18:01.240
a good thing about this is you can, if you

2501
08:18:01.400 --> 08:18:15.319
want to, you can just flex or stimulate the various

2502
08:18:15.520 --> 08:18:23.040
muscles in your body gently in order to get more

2503
08:18:23.040 --> 08:18:32.680
of a sense of how they feel. And when you're

2504
08:18:32.720 --> 08:18:42.080
relaxing and you do tense and muscle and you let

2505
08:18:42.159 --> 08:18:49.119
it go and you let it relax, it relaxes way

2506
08:18:49.520 --> 08:19:01.400
more than they would normally. You have to feel that

2507
08:19:01.520 --> 08:19:05.240
you're able to do that. There's no point in doing

2508
08:19:05.319 --> 08:19:10.840
it if there's an issue with the per part of

2509
08:19:10.919 --> 08:19:20.119
your body. You need to be gentle with yourself at

2510
08:19:20.400 --> 08:19:34.200
all times when relaxing deeply, It's important to be kind

2511
08:19:34.919 --> 08:19:50.959
to yourself. As you notice your mind. How much has

2512
08:19:51.000 --> 08:20:14.639
your mind slowed down since we started this recording, How

2513
08:20:14.880 --> 08:20:30.119
came and peaceful is your mind right now? We have

2514
08:20:30.319 --> 08:20:36.200
nothing to think about and just my voice to listen to.

2515
08:20:40.360 --> 08:20:48.919
Because you know the intention behind this recording, this relaxation,

2516
08:20:51.639 --> 08:20:56.799
at the very least, for you to feel more relaxed

2517
08:20:58.119 --> 08:21:01.680
at the end of the recording you did at the beginning.

2518
08:21:06.840 --> 08:21:18.639
At the very least, your mind to slow down because

2519
08:21:18.720 --> 08:21:33.040
your body continues to relax, because that's what you want

2520
08:21:34.759 --> 08:21:53.799
to happen, that's what you expect to happen, for relaxation,

2521
08:21:57.119 --> 08:22:12.599
to fill your body, maybe calm in your mind to

2522
08:22:12.759 --> 08:22:32.119
the point of boredom. When you start maybe to drift away,

2523
08:23:00.599 --> 08:23:10.319
it's almost as if you're moving further away from your

2524
08:23:10.439 --> 08:23:24.119
body in your mind, just leaving that there, kind of

2525
08:23:24.200 --> 08:23:29.119
liking it an escape pod in the spaceship a movie,

2526
08:23:29.919 --> 08:23:32.840
a space movie, you know, and against a little part

2527
08:23:32.880 --> 08:23:39.840
in it, since the mon far away from the spaceship,

2528
08:23:49.000 --> 08:24:47.919
safe to dream than continue to relax, drifting so slow

2529
08:25:01.040 --> 08:25:55.360
and be so so re, don't be so and focusing

2530
08:25:55.759 --> 08:26:09.639
on that feeling of those intellectual parts of your body

2531
08:26:10.599 --> 08:26:17.400
that are relaxing one by one.

2532
08:26:25.080 --> 08:26:25.599
You may.

2533
08:26:27.319 --> 08:26:41.000
Find that every now and then you realize that you

2534
08:26:41.159 --> 08:26:49.799
are listening to my voice because your mind started to

2535
08:26:50.040 --> 08:27:05.240
imagine something different, maybe started to almost move into some

2536
08:27:05.560 --> 08:27:14.000
kind of a dreamy state, and then you become aware

2537
08:27:14.200 --> 08:27:23.439
of my voice again. And even though you may want

2538
08:27:23.639 --> 08:27:28.560
to focus on my voice, you may also wish to

2539
08:27:31.080 --> 08:27:42.680
allow your mind to just drift naturally into that space

2540
08:27:42.959 --> 08:28:06.959
of comfort and safety. As you feel more comfort spreading

2541
08:28:07.319 --> 08:28:20.080
through your body like a warm blanket covering you gently,

2542
08:28:24.119 --> 08:28:42.200
keeping your body at just the perfect temperature. And even

2543
08:28:42.360 --> 08:28:54.360
if you can hear background sounds, they just don't seem

2544
08:28:54.520 --> 08:29:11.520
to matter anymore. There's that sensor. Peace spreads through your

2545
08:29:11.639 --> 08:29:25.479
mind like a gentle breeze, Yes, strong enough to blow

2546
08:29:25.560 --> 08:29:41.919
away all negativity, strong enough to remove from your mind

2547
08:29:45.159 --> 08:29:59.880
any anxiety or stress that was there before, and blow

2548
08:30:00.080 --> 08:30:11.200
away any other thoughts or feelings that just don't fit.

2549
08:30:15.080 --> 08:30:17.000
With the sense.

2550
08:30:24.200 --> 08:30:55.759
Relaxation. That is feeling your body end your mind unless

2551
08:30:55.799 --> 08:31:02.200
you focus on your mind. M help down from ten

2552
08:31:02.560 --> 08:31:10.919
down to one, and with each number you hear, your

2553
08:31:11.080 --> 08:31:36.639
mind will become slightly more relaxed, just just slightly.

2554
08:31:39.240 --> 08:31:39.279
So.

2555
08:31:39.439 --> 08:31:46.479
From ten down to nine, just a slight movement. From

2556
08:31:46.639 --> 08:31:58.880
nine down to eight, just another small change in how

2557
08:31:59.040 --> 08:32:12.080
you feel. Eight down to seven. That feeling is a gap,

2558
08:32:13.000 --> 08:32:18.560
almost like a gap that starts to get wider, the

2559
08:32:18.680 --> 08:32:26.919
gap between those feelings that you used to have in

2560
08:32:27.080 --> 08:32:35.040
your mind compared to the feelings you have the growing

2561
08:32:35.799 --> 08:32:47.000
now feelings of comfort and security and confidence, and the

2562
08:32:47.240 --> 08:32:54.080
gap becomes wider. Eight down to seven, seven down to six.

2563
08:32:57.840 --> 08:33:02.919
When you get to five, your mind will start to

2564
08:33:04.240 --> 08:33:16.599
have a certain physical sensation, almost like there's a magnet

2565
08:33:17.200 --> 08:33:24.119
outside of your head sucking atension and the stress and

2566
08:33:24.240 --> 08:33:27.599
any remaining feelings that you.

2567
08:33:27.759 --> 08:33:28.560
Don't want.

2568
08:33:30.360 --> 08:33:39.360
Sucking them out through your skull, and in down to

2569
08:33:39.680 --> 08:33:47.080
four you can start to really experience that sense of

2570
08:33:48.639 --> 08:33:59.119
not just emptiness, but space, a place full of fresh air,

2571
08:34:04.159 --> 08:34:10.959
place where you can stretch. It's almost as if as

2572
08:34:11.040 --> 08:34:15.080
you go down to four and three, your mind is

2573
08:34:15.240 --> 08:34:29.799
expanding with this sense of peace and tranquility growing as

2574
08:34:29.799 --> 08:34:37.319
it moves down to When you get to one, your

2575
08:34:37.479 --> 08:34:49.240
mind just feels exactly how you want to feel. It's

2576
08:34:49.279 --> 08:35:04.919
almost perfect fearing maybe the sensation that.

2577
08:35:06.520 --> 08:35:07.959
You'd like to keep.

2578
08:35:10.959 --> 08:35:21.759
A place that's safe, where nothing can affect you at all,

2579
08:35:33.439 --> 08:35:38.240
and you can stay in that that space of comfort

2580
08:35:38.279 --> 08:35:48.000
and confidence, confident in your own ability to create this

2581
08:35:48.919 --> 08:35:54.919
space and this feeling of comfort within your own mind

2582
08:35:56.479 --> 08:36:06.159
just by counting in ten down to one. And this

2583
08:36:06.400 --> 08:36:10.759
is something that you can do yourself when you're on

2584
08:36:10.840 --> 08:36:18.599
your own, the time when you can maybe sit down,

2585
08:36:19.599 --> 08:36:30.439
maybe just for a few minutes, close your eyes, just

2586
08:36:30.759 --> 08:36:43.319
count slowly from ten down to one and re experience

2587
08:36:45.040 --> 08:36:55.400
these feelings in your mind. And when you feel that

2588
08:36:55.599 --> 08:37:10.720
way in your mind, your body copies your mind and

2589
08:37:10.880 --> 08:37:17.200
a feeling is spread through your spine and your nervous

2590
08:37:17.319 --> 08:37:25.759
system into every part of your body, travels through your bloodstream,

2591
08:37:31.319 --> 08:37:51.799
heathing and relaxing every particle of your existence. Now we

2592
08:37:51.919 --> 08:38:00.720
can we can practice this a few times before the

2593
08:38:00.880 --> 08:38:05.400
end of the recording, and then you can practice on

2594
08:38:05.520 --> 08:38:13.040
your own. And each time you count from ten about one,

2595
08:38:17.720 --> 08:38:29.919
the feelings of comfort, calmness, deep deep relaxation become stronger

2596
08:38:31.360 --> 08:38:45.560
and deeper feeling your mind and your brain with these

2597
08:38:46.759 --> 08:38:54.840
positive chemicals, the spread throughout your body, relaxing you.

2598
08:38:56.759 --> 08:38:57.959
So quickly.

2599
08:39:00.319 --> 08:39:09.479
In your whole body and mind, so very, very easily,

2600
08:39:12.080 --> 08:39:13.840
just by counting.

2601
08:39:14.919 --> 08:39:15.759
From ten.

2602
08:39:18.439 --> 08:39:19.240
Down to one.

2603
08:39:24.360 --> 08:39:26.799
So we're going to do now, I'm.

2604
08:39:26.680 --> 08:39:30.639
Going to count from ten down to one. I'd like

2605
08:39:30.840 --> 08:39:35.000
you to repeat the number after me. So when I

2606
08:39:35.159 --> 08:39:41.959
say ten, you can just repeat to yourself.

2607
08:39:43.319 --> 08:39:43.560
Ten.

2608
08:39:49.159 --> 08:39:58.520
Just notice, be aware of how you feel in your

2609
08:39:58.680 --> 08:40:08.200
mind and your body. Then when I say nine, you

2610
08:40:08.319 --> 08:40:23.720
can beat to yourself nine a game, noticing the increase

2611
08:40:24.080 --> 08:40:32.279
in comfort and calmness in your mind and in your body,

2612
08:40:38.279 --> 08:40:47.720
the same when I say eight, when I say seven, six,

2613
08:40:50.279 --> 08:41:04.560
when I say five, four, when I say three, two,

2614
08:41:09.000 --> 08:41:13.880
and lastly you want to say one, you can repeat

2615
08:41:14.200 --> 08:41:15.520
that number.

2616
08:41:22.639 --> 08:41:22.759
Now.

2617
08:41:22.880 --> 08:41:28.439
Of course, when you do this on your own without

2618
08:41:28.560 --> 08:41:33.560
listening to me. You can say the numbers or whatever

2619
08:41:35.200 --> 08:41:43.639
speed that you feel is necessary for you, so you

2620
08:41:43.799 --> 08:41:49.720
can adapt. So you feel you want to say the

2621
08:41:49.880 --> 08:41:57.439
numbers ten down to one faster than I do, then

2622
08:41:57.479 --> 08:42:00.360
you go ahead and do that. Or if you feel

2623
08:42:01.200 --> 08:42:04.279
when you do it yourself that you'd like to have

2624
08:42:04.880 --> 08:42:13.560
more space between the numbers, maybe take a lot longer

2625
08:42:14.840 --> 08:42:20.680
to get from ten all the way down to one,

2626
08:42:24.919 --> 08:42:38.240
that's your choice also to do. So I'm going to count.

2627
08:42:38.040 --> 08:42:46.599
From ten down to one, and when I get to one.

2628
08:42:47.759 --> 08:42:53.680
That will be the end of this recording, unless, of course,

2629
08:42:53.759 --> 08:43:05.759
you're listening with music, and the music will continue. Ten

2630
08:43:18.279 --> 08:44:12.319
nine eight f.

2631
08:45:01.840 --> 08:47:38.240
Us twenty.

2632
08:47:42.080 --> 08:48:28.479
Ninety eighteen, seventeen, sixty fifteen, fourteen, thirteen, twelve eleven, ten

2633
08:48:33.240 --> 08:49:23.560
nine eight, seven, six, five, four three two one. Now

2634
08:49:23.680 --> 08:49:34.279
open your eyes, noticing how you physically feel having counted

2635
08:49:34.319 --> 08:49:42.040
down from twenty to one, allowing stress and tension to

2636
08:49:42.279 --> 08:49:46.720
leave through your fingertips and your tails. And as you

2637
08:49:46.840 --> 08:49:52.279
focus on your fingertips maybe they feel a little bit tingly,

2638
08:49:54.599 --> 08:49:59.720
which is I suppose quite an understanding considering attention as

2639
08:49:59.759 --> 08:50:03.080
being exiting your body through your fingertips.

2640
08:50:09.560 --> 08:50:11.560
So now I'm going to count from twenty down to

2641
08:50:11.639 --> 08:50:12.200
one again.

2642
08:50:12.680 --> 08:50:13.360
This time.

2643
08:50:17.520 --> 08:50:23.319
You got to feel relief of tension and stress, any

2644
08:50:23.400 --> 08:50:35.520
anxiety that you may have leaving through your stomach, just

2645
08:50:36.080 --> 08:50:40.759
leaving through your stomach, almost as if it's just releasing

2646
08:50:42.400 --> 08:50:47.759
the whole of your stomach and naval to just above

2647
08:50:47.840 --> 08:50:51.880
your chest or below your chest, rather so surrounding your

2648
08:50:51.959 --> 08:50:56.919
belly by an area, the whole area. You can feel

2649
08:50:57.119 --> 08:51:02.479
the tension of your body it has left, just releasing

2650
08:51:03.639 --> 08:51:06.959
from the area. And you may notice that your stomach

2651
08:51:07.040 --> 08:51:14.279
will become very relaxed as I countdown from twenty down

2652
08:51:14.360 --> 08:52:15.080
to one now twenty nineteen, eighteen, seventeen, sixteen, fifteen, fourteen, thirteen, twelve, eleven, ten, nine,

2653
08:52:19.799 --> 08:52:56.400
eight seven six, dive four three, two one, and you

2654
08:52:56.479 --> 08:52:59.000
can open your eyes again if you choose, but I

2655
08:52:59.080 --> 08:53:04.959
can just keep them most because it feels relaxing. Just

2656
08:53:05.159 --> 08:53:10.000
notice how your stomach feels. I notice as your focus.

2657
08:53:10.279 --> 08:53:12.759
Just do a little scan of your body.

2658
08:53:14.880 --> 08:53:16.000
Just notice how your.

2659
08:53:15.919 --> 08:53:28.639
Body feels, focusing on upper body, back, chest, stomach, legs, arms, hands, feet,

2660
08:53:31.680 --> 08:53:38.560
just noticing, and you know, you may start to feel

2661
08:53:41.080 --> 08:53:44.840
more of a sense of tiredness, which may be the

2662
08:53:45.000 --> 08:53:51.319
reason listening to this according because you would like to

2663
08:53:53.000 --> 08:54:04.880
let go completely of everything and dread into a nice, natural, calm,

2664
08:54:05.279 --> 08:54:20.439
relaxing sleep. So now we're going to focus on your forehead,

2665
08:54:24.360 --> 08:54:27.119
and if you choose, you can incorporate your eyes in

2666
08:54:27.279 --> 08:54:34.159
this focus as well. Your forehead and your eyes. It's

2667
08:54:34.240 --> 08:54:38.759
that whole area basically almost as if you were wearing

2668
08:54:38.799 --> 08:54:39.720
a mask.

2669
08:54:39.560 --> 08:54:40.159
You know, like a.

2670
08:54:42.119 --> 08:54:47.520
I don't know, a Batman mask or something, or I'm

2671
08:54:47.599 --> 08:54:50.360
trying to zorro or something, you know, the kind of

2672
08:54:50.479 --> 08:54:53.560
mask that covers your eyes, but also covers quite a

2673
08:54:53.599 --> 08:55:00.560
lot of the forehead. Focusing on that area because that's

2674
08:55:00.599 --> 08:55:03.959
the area that we're now going to release tension and

2675
08:55:04.159 --> 08:55:09.439
stress from your mind and your brain. From your mind,

2676
08:55:09.560 --> 08:55:13.799
and any tension that you may have remaining your face,

2677
08:55:14.840 --> 08:55:20.159
in your neck and your jawl, your eyes, your forehead,

2678
08:55:20.959 --> 08:55:27.279
or your scalp. So basically, any tension within your head area,

2679
08:55:28.000 --> 08:55:35.159
including your mind and your brain, that's going to be

2680
08:55:35.319 --> 08:55:39.119
released through your forehead and your eyes.

2681
08:55:43.080 --> 08:55:44.680
As I count down a game.

2682
08:55:44.599 --> 08:56:55.319
From twenty down to one now twenty nineteen, eighteen, seventeen, sixteen, fifteen, fourteen, thirteen, twelve, eleven, ten, nine, eight,

2683
08:57:00.200 --> 08:57:10.240
seven six five.

2684
08:57:15.599 --> 08:57:20.520
War three.

2685
08:57:25.360 --> 08:57:29.840
H on.

2686
08:57:38.319 --> 08:57:47.759
Noticing she scan your face with jaw, your eyes, the

2687
08:57:48.040 --> 08:57:56.720
cheap bons, your ears, your forehead, your scalp, your neck,

2688
08:57:58.040 --> 08:58:00.560
the back of your neck, in the front of your neck,

2689
08:58:01.479 --> 08:58:06.959
the side of your neck, and your throat. H m hmmm.

2690
08:58:10.080 --> 08:58:21.159
Noticing being aware of the comfort increased in that relaxation,

2691
08:58:23.319 --> 08:58:28.200
not just in your head and neck and mind, also

2692
08:58:28.680 --> 08:58:38.159
the rest of your body. Just notice how loose and

2693
08:58:38.479 --> 08:58:42.159
calm you feel, and how easily.

2694
08:58:43.880 --> 08:58:45.439
It is to just let go.

2695
08:58:48.240 --> 08:59:03.959
Completely, let go completely, how easily.

2696
08:59:11.799 --> 08:59:15.599
So I'm gonna do valance. I want to focus on

2697
08:59:15.720 --> 08:59:22.799
the top of your head, and am I going to

2698
08:59:22.919 --> 08:59:32.080
allow every last piece of tension or stress of mind

2699
08:59:33.639 --> 08:59:36.439
lingering or hiding in your body.

2700
08:59:37.319 --> 08:59:39.279
Or mind my head.

2701
08:59:40.599 --> 08:59:41.000
To just.

2702
08:59:42.759 --> 08:59:45.520
Be sucked out at the top of.

2703
08:59:45.560 --> 08:59:49.599
Your head, released.

2704
08:59:52.840 --> 09:00:00.240
Into Yeah, I'm sacked out into the clouds. Imagin be

2705
09:00:00.520 --> 09:00:06.200
cloud of put your head almost like a whirlpool, and

2706
09:00:06.279 --> 09:00:07.720
this is can suck that.

2707
09:00:08.119 --> 09:00:14.319
Tension now on the top of your head and just

2708
09:00:14.439 --> 09:00:15.479
take it away.

2709
09:00:17.080 --> 09:00:17.680
The good.

2710
09:00:20.680 --> 09:00:24.799
Your focus. Imagine an opening the top of your head

2711
09:00:26.159 --> 09:00:32.240
with a tension, stress and in remaining issues, maybe worries

2712
09:00:32.360 --> 09:00:36.720
of concerns that have no use to you now you

2713
09:00:36.840 --> 09:00:39.639
can all be sucked down at the top of your head.

2714
09:00:41.319 --> 09:00:47.319
I've taken away. As I count down again from twenty

2715
09:00:47.720 --> 09:01:41.919
down to one now twenty nineteen, eighteen, seventeen, sixteen, fifty fourteenteen,

2716
09:01:47.880 --> 09:02:51.319
t twelve, eleven, ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five, four three, one.

2717
09:03:01.400 --> 09:03:01.799
Breathe.

2718
09:03:06.479 --> 09:03:19.520
I'm noticing how you feel, how relaxed and calm you

2719
09:03:19.720 --> 09:03:22.759
physically and mentally feel.

2720
09:03:23.360 --> 09:03:31.479
Right now, how be peace.

2721
09:03:33.639 --> 09:03:40.360
Your mind feels. It feel so nice to just let go,

2722
09:03:42.639 --> 09:03:51.919
to give yourself some space to breathe easily, to think calmly,

2723
09:03:56.759 --> 09:04:01.639
and just to take a break from all that pointless

2724
09:04:01.840 --> 09:04:07.639
worry concerns about things that you don't need to think

2725
09:04:07.680 --> 09:04:18.560
about right now, because this is your time to let go.

2726
09:04:19.919 --> 09:04:29.680
This is your space to enjoy feeling deeply relaxed, peaceful

2727
09:04:29.799 --> 09:04:37.080
in your mind, relaxed in your body. They can feel

2728
09:04:37.639 --> 09:04:47.439
so good, so nice to just not have to do anything,

2729
09:04:49.799 --> 09:04:58.680
to be able to really enjoy that serenity that comes

2730
09:05:00.240 --> 09:05:06.360
and letting go completely, that peacefulness that comes with.

2731
09:05:13.080 --> 09:05:14.439
Being in this.

2732
09:05:16.240 --> 09:05:26.319
Peaceful space. And you can keep this sense of calmness

2733
09:05:27.159 --> 09:05:38.279
for a long as you choose. If you choose to

2734
09:05:38.560 --> 09:05:44.200
drift off into a deep healing natural sleep.

2735
09:05:45.520 --> 09:05:46.319
Then you can do that.

2736
09:05:50.000 --> 09:05:58.240
It's completely up to you, and you can keep this

2737
09:05:58.599 --> 09:06:04.439
feeling of calmness physically mean in your mind as long

2738
09:06:04.919 --> 09:06:21.879
as you choose to feel completely relaxed, completely relaxed. And

2739
09:06:21.959 --> 09:06:27.720
I'd like you to make up your mind that you're

2740
09:06:27.760 --> 09:06:38.959
going to relax, and want to explore that with you

2741
09:06:39.639 --> 09:06:46.559
what it feels like when you actually decide that you're

2742
09:06:46.639 --> 09:06:55.360
going to relax, not forcing yourself, but giving yourself that. Yes,

2743
09:06:55.480 --> 09:06:57.760
it is a command, really, isn't it. When you're telling

2744
09:06:57.839 --> 09:07:07.599
yourself relax in a gentle but firm way, that only.

2745
09:07:07.680 --> 09:07:08.720
You can really.

2746
09:07:10.120 --> 09:07:13.559
Tell yourself in that way. You can't really have someone

2747
09:07:13.599 --> 09:07:17.959
else saying to you, now it relax, relax, you know,

2748
09:07:18.959 --> 09:07:22.199
and it needs to be gentle, but you can't. Someone

2749
09:07:22.239 --> 09:07:29.239
else can't really have the same the same kind of

2750
09:07:29.879 --> 09:07:38.839
influence or power that you have over your own physicality,

2751
09:07:39.639 --> 09:07:48.639
over how you feel, because when you say it to

2752
09:07:48.760 --> 09:07:57.199
yourself it means more. It's personal, and your brain and

2753
09:07:57.400 --> 09:08:05.080
your unconscious mind and your listens to what you say. So,

2754
09:08:05.360 --> 09:08:09.120
for example, we'll test it out. We'll do a little test,

2755
09:08:09.279 --> 09:08:12.879
a few little tests along the way, and you can

2756
09:08:13.000 --> 09:08:19.279
get more of an idea of the force, the positive

2757
09:08:19.480 --> 09:08:25.879
force that you can have in creating a sense of

2758
09:08:26.199 --> 09:08:31.199
comfort and relaxation in your body and your mind quite

2759
09:08:31.279 --> 09:08:44.040
quickly just by you telling yourself to relax. So I'm

2760
09:08:44.040 --> 09:08:50.760
going to start by let's focus on your hands. To

2761
09:08:50.919 --> 09:08:53.919
focus on your hands and just tell your hands to relax,

2762
09:08:54.919 --> 09:08:59.839
and just say relax. As you focus on your hands,

2763
09:09:02.120 --> 09:09:06.639
you could say my hands are relaxed, or I want

2764
09:09:06.680 --> 09:09:07.800
my hands to relax.

2765
09:09:09.919 --> 09:09:10.519
I think if you.

2766
09:09:10.599 --> 09:09:17.400
Actually do it directly by focusing and imagining that your

2767
09:09:17.519 --> 09:09:20.559
hands can hear what you're saying.

2768
09:09:20.720 --> 09:09:23.680
You know they've got little ears, which it's a little weird.

2769
09:09:26.279 --> 09:09:36.480
So talking to your hands and just say relax, you

2770
09:09:36.639 --> 09:09:57.959
know disin now your hands start to relax. Now focus

2771
09:09:58.080 --> 09:09:59.919
on your eyes until your.

2772
09:09:59.839 --> 09:10:00.839
Eye to relax.

2773
09:10:02.000 --> 09:10:06.839
You're just saying the same word relax. And find the

2774
09:10:07.000 --> 09:10:09.760
right tone for you.

2775
09:10:12.319 --> 09:10:13.599
You know, I might say.

2776
09:10:13.959 --> 09:10:23.199
Relax, but you you might say relax or relax. You know,

2777
09:10:23.519 --> 09:10:29.199
you might say it differently to yourself, and that's important

2778
09:10:30.080 --> 09:10:36.160
for you to gauge what feels right for you. To

2779
09:10:36.360 --> 09:10:41.559
just tell your eyes to relax whilst focusing on your eyes,

2780
09:10:42.080 --> 09:10:46.760
your eyelids, the muscles around your eyes, your eyebrows and

2781
09:10:47.000 --> 09:11:22.480
just tell your eyes directly relax now. Now I just

2782
09:11:22.639 --> 09:11:32.919
did that myself, and sometimes you may feel that you

2783
09:11:33.120 --> 09:11:38.519
need a bit more time for the different parts to relax,

2784
09:11:39.360 --> 09:11:43.239
you know, because I start talking again and maybe that

2785
09:11:43.480 --> 09:11:47.040
part hasn't relaxed fully. But what will happen is that

2786
09:11:47.160 --> 09:11:49.040
we just continue to relax.

2787
09:11:48.760 --> 09:11:49.720
Even though I'm talking.

2788
09:11:51.360 --> 09:11:57.120
And that's happened with my eyes. Something else I noticed

2789
09:11:57.239 --> 09:12:01.879
is when I started focused on my eyes, that actually

2790
09:12:02.680 --> 09:12:05.480
almost became They got worse before they got better in

2791
09:12:05.599 --> 09:12:09.400
a way. So I felt a degree of tension growing

2792
09:12:09.480 --> 09:12:15.160
in my eyes and then disappearing. So I think what

2793
09:12:15.360 --> 09:12:19.919
that was really is just me becoming more aware of

2794
09:12:20.239 --> 09:12:25.480
the tension that was already there that I wasn't. I

2795
09:12:25.599 --> 09:12:30.839
wasn't focused on it before, so I wasn't really acknowledging

2796
09:12:30.919 --> 09:12:47.919
it or really conscious to those feelings. Yeah, my eyes

2797
09:12:47.959 --> 09:12:51.800
is still continuing to relax, as well as my hands. Actually,

2798
09:12:55.239 --> 09:13:01.639
my hands had got a certain kind of like not buzzing,

2799
09:13:01.879 --> 09:13:02.959
but I can kind of.

2800
09:13:05.319 --> 09:13:07.480
Feel a degree of energy in my hands.

2801
09:13:10.680 --> 09:13:15.360
Maybe that's where the tension is being released. Maybe that's

2802
09:13:15.400 --> 09:13:24.720
the coorts on that, and it's part I think we

2803
09:13:24.760 --> 09:13:25.720
should focus.

2804
09:13:25.480 --> 09:13:27.839
On the back of the neck. That's a part which

2805
09:13:27.839 --> 09:13:28.360
is quite.

2806
09:13:28.199 --> 09:13:33.000
Often or for me, holds tension. I don't know about

2807
09:13:33.000 --> 09:13:37.319
it for yourself, but I think it's quite a standard

2808
09:13:37.400 --> 09:13:44.480
place where tension is sometimes held. So and I'm doing

2809
09:13:44.800 --> 09:13:47.400
exactly what you're doing as you do it as well,

2810
09:13:47.559 --> 09:13:50.559
so I'm telling my body parts.

2811
09:13:50.440 --> 09:13:53.519
To relax as well. So if you tell your neck.

2812
09:13:53.440 --> 09:13:56.080
At the back of your neck, focus on the back

2813
09:13:56.080 --> 09:14:03.199
of your neck, and just say relax in your own words,

2814
09:14:03.360 --> 09:14:06.480
in your own tone, in your own voice. You can

2815
09:14:06.559 --> 09:14:08.400
say out loud, or you can just say it to

2816
09:14:08.480 --> 09:14:15.160
yourself internally, but you're focusing and you're saying it literally.

2817
09:14:15.120 --> 09:14:18.440
To the back of your neck, as if the back

2818
09:14:18.480 --> 09:14:21.760
of your neck you can actually hear what you're saying.

2819
09:14:25.199 --> 09:14:28.760
So do that now, just say relax to the back

2820
09:14:28.800 --> 09:14:29.239
of your neck.

2821
09:14:30.400 --> 09:15:12.120
And I did the same. And what I noticed and you.

2822
09:15:12.319 --> 09:15:16.919
May have that similar thing is even though I was

2823
09:15:17.040 --> 09:15:25.639
focusing on the back of my neck, other parts started

2824
09:15:25.720 --> 09:15:31.959
to I don't know, showed themselves to me, or maybe

2825
09:15:32.160 --> 09:15:34.800
because they want to be relaxed as well. But I

2826
09:15:34.959 --> 09:15:38.919
started to noticing the feelings in my shoulders, attension in

2827
09:15:39.000 --> 09:15:44.680
my shoulders and in my other back whether that was

2828
09:15:44.800 --> 09:15:50.160
because my back of my neck was saying, well, I'm

2829
09:15:50.160 --> 09:15:55.000
pretty much okay, it's the other parts that need attention,

2830
09:16:01.400 --> 09:16:03.519
but my lobe, my my back of my neck is

2831
09:16:03.599 --> 09:16:07.720
still relaxing. But I just became more aware of other

2832
09:16:07.879 --> 09:16:15.599
parts that needed attention. Now, this might happen and it's not.

2833
09:16:17.199 --> 09:16:19.760
It doesn't mean that it's going wrong. It just means

2834
09:16:20.599 --> 09:16:24.839
you're being notified of more places.

2835
09:16:25.599 --> 09:16:27.519
That also want to feel relaxed.

2836
09:16:30.760 --> 09:16:33.760
So I'm going to focus on my upper back.

2837
09:16:35.080 --> 09:16:38.800
So you can do the same even if you don't

2838
09:16:38.919 --> 09:16:39.559
have any.

2839
09:16:40.959 --> 09:16:44.480
Feelings of tension that were obvious in your upper back.

2840
09:16:46.440 --> 09:16:51.279
You just focus on your back and the whole area

2841
09:16:51.440 --> 09:16:55.959
from the shoulder blades down to the middle of your

2842
09:16:56.000 --> 09:17:00.279
back and the spine. And with me, it's or the

2843
09:17:00.400 --> 09:17:02.040
shoulder placed more.

2844
09:17:06.720 --> 09:17:12.120
Yeah, that's the parts that really sort of giving me.

2845
09:17:13.879 --> 09:17:14.199
Did not.

2846
09:17:16.120 --> 09:17:18.559
That it needs relax in the sounds to ask that

2847
09:17:18.720 --> 09:17:22.000
part to relax, And you can do the same.

2848
09:17:21.879 --> 09:17:48.400
Now relaxing up the bank. There's something strange.

2849
09:17:48.080 --> 09:17:49.440
Happened there, And this.

2850
09:17:50.919 --> 09:17:56.559
Often happens, and I'm doing this for over sixteen years

2851
09:17:56.680 --> 09:18:03.599
or something, and often no one surprised but amazed.

2852
09:18:03.680 --> 09:18:04.480
Really bad.

2853
09:18:06.559 --> 09:18:10.879
There can be a feeling. So when I was focusing

2854
09:18:10.959 --> 09:18:13.839
on the back of my neck, my upper back was

2855
09:18:14.720 --> 09:18:18.959
starting to feel quite stressed and in need of attention.

2856
09:18:21.400 --> 09:18:24.440
As soon as I started talking to you about my

2857
09:18:24.639 --> 09:18:29.519
upper back and talking about, you know, getting ready to

2858
09:18:29.839 --> 09:18:34.599
ask the upper back to relax, why the back already

2859
09:18:34.720 --> 09:18:40.440
started to relax. It's almost as if it doesn't need

2860
09:18:40.639 --> 09:18:50.639
to hear the words, just needs attention, just needs to

2861
09:18:50.680 --> 09:19:03.160
be noticed. And that is something that often happens in

2862
09:19:04.040 --> 09:19:10.919
this type of situation. Is when you start to relax

2863
09:19:12.480 --> 09:19:15.800
a couple of parts of your body, as we've done

2864
09:19:15.879 --> 09:19:23.839
with our hands, the eyes, the eyelids, and now back.

2865
09:19:23.680 --> 09:19:32.519
Of the neck, top of the bag at the back, the.

2866
09:19:32.599 --> 09:19:39.199
Rest of the body seems to just take notice and

2867
09:19:39.440 --> 09:19:45.400
decide in its own way to start relaxing.

2868
09:19:47.239 --> 09:19:48.879
Other parts of your body.

2869
09:19:49.279 --> 09:19:58.720
Start to just become looser. I suppose it's kind of

2870
09:19:58.839 --> 09:20:02.239
like a bit of an ever life. You know, the

2871
09:20:02.319 --> 09:20:05.599
little ball starts rolling and before you know it, the

2872
09:20:05.720 --> 09:20:18.000
whole of your body is completely relaxed and can't And

2873
09:20:18.160 --> 09:20:26.160
if you focus on your face, you focus on your eyes,

2874
09:20:28.559 --> 09:20:34.879
the eyelids, your eyebrowns, and the muscles around your eyes,

2875
09:20:39.639 --> 09:20:44.279
and then you start to notice that your forehead is

2876
09:20:44.400 --> 09:20:49.720
more relaxed than it was. Maybe your face is more relaxed.

2877
09:20:52.400 --> 09:20:56.160
I would say my entire face is a lot more

2878
09:20:56.239 --> 09:21:09.879
relaxed than it was. So you're going to focus now

2879
09:21:10.120 --> 09:21:17.959
on your shoulders again, just like before. Just tell your shoulders.

2880
09:21:18.680 --> 09:21:20.959
I mean you can't do them in the digity. You

2881
09:21:21.040 --> 09:21:23.040
can do the right shoulder and you shoulder.

2882
09:21:24.599 --> 09:21:26.760
I just didn't do both at the same time.

2883
09:21:28.800 --> 09:21:32.040
Just tell your shoulders as you focus on them in

2884
09:21:32.120 --> 09:21:38.279
your mind, focus on how you feel. Maybe you can

2885
09:21:38.599 --> 09:21:45.360
see them in your mind's eye. Just tell your shoulders

2886
09:21:49.120 --> 09:21:50.199
to relax.

2887
09:22:27.360 --> 09:22:28.839
As nice as they relax.

2888
09:22:39.360 --> 09:22:48.279
I didn't notice, especially with my bank, is the connection

2889
09:22:48.559 --> 09:22:54.080
between the different parts the bank, the shoulders, the neck

2890
09:22:59.599 --> 09:23:04.040
beenal or connected and being such a large part of

2891
09:23:04.120 --> 09:23:10.400
your body, it's almost hard to separate them from each other.

2892
09:23:15.919 --> 09:23:18.360
And my luwer back is starting to relax on the

2893
09:23:18.480 --> 09:23:29.680
saone maybe going too slow, and that could be an

2894
09:23:29.720 --> 09:23:37.120
issue because we will go at different speeds. And the

2895
09:23:37.319 --> 09:23:40.199
idea at the beginning of this recording was for you

2896
09:23:40.400 --> 09:23:55.239
to be able to just say to yourself, relax without

2897
09:23:55.400 --> 09:24:01.680
focusing on any particular part of your body. Because when

2898
09:24:01.720 --> 09:24:12.879
you know that telling your hands to relax. Your hands relaxed.

2899
09:24:15.360 --> 09:24:22.000
You tell your eyelids and your eyes, the muscles around

2900
09:24:22.160 --> 09:24:31.599
your eyes and your eyebrows to relax, and they relax,

2901
09:24:37.480 --> 09:24:49.919
until the back of your neck to relax, and it relaxes.

2902
09:24:57.879 --> 09:24:59.360
You tell your upper back.

2903
09:25:05.839 --> 09:25:27.239
Tories and dices, theteria, shoulders.

2904
09:26:00.239 --> 09:26:07.760
H When you told your hands to relax, they relaxed,

2905
09:26:08.279 --> 09:26:10.080
and they continued.

2906
09:26:11.199 --> 09:26:11.800
To relax.

2907
09:26:17.639 --> 09:26:23.279
And you told your eyelids, the muscles around your eyes,

2908
09:26:24.279 --> 09:26:33.000
your eyebrows to relax. They relaxed, they.

2909
09:26:33.120 --> 09:26:44.440
Continue to relax. And you told the back of your neck.

2910
09:26:45.959 --> 09:26:46.919
Us on the back of your.

2911
09:26:46.879 --> 09:26:52.239
Neck, you told it to relax.

2912
09:26:56.559 --> 09:26:57.239
They relaxed.

2913
09:26:59.599 --> 09:27:01.000
M teened.

2914
09:27:02.120 --> 09:27:17.160
To relax, and he told you all alcome back to relax.

2915
09:27:19.160 --> 09:27:21.919
The relaxed, he continued.

2916
09:27:23.919 --> 09:27:34.120
To relax. That's with your shoulders.

2917
09:27:36.559 --> 09:27:43.680
You told your shoulders to relax. In your shoulders relaxed and.

2918
09:27:44.800 --> 09:27:51.120
Ted to relax.

2919
09:27:56.800 --> 09:28:01.800
And it's not just that, It's.

2920
09:28:04.400 --> 09:28:08.800
That the rest of your body is also in listening.

2921
09:28:10.760 --> 09:28:17.000
Their reaxation has been spreading. So from your eyes, the

2922
09:28:17.160 --> 09:28:24.160
relaxation spread to your forehead, around your face.

2923
09:28:24.120 --> 09:28:37.839
Into your skin, into your jaw, into the front.

2924
09:28:37.639 --> 09:28:41.639
And sides of the neck, on the way down your

2925
09:28:41.839 --> 09:28:52.279
chest and story and relaxed hands and shoulders.

2926
09:28:54.279 --> 09:29:09.680
Me tup through your eyes, relaxing out elbows, wrists, let.

2927
09:29:17.519 --> 09:29:18.639
In, no bang.

2928
09:29:22.040 --> 09:29:35.199
Hits, not explaining, Just start to relax. The tap spreading

2929
09:29:35.400 --> 09:29:50.680
through your legs way down, kipping goods, twis of your feet,

2930
09:29:51.800 --> 09:29:56.839
the side of your feet, the bottoms of your feet,

2931
09:30:00.639 --> 09:30:32.720
re lexi in your toes, turn relaxing, release, and if.

2932
09:30:32.680 --> 09:30:50.040
Your body relaxes month, your mind becomes slower peaceful.

2933
09:30:57.599 --> 09:31:12.919
It's the point where if you choose the fools, easily

2934
09:31:13.519 --> 09:31:28.400
do that. He said to it the way, because there's

2935
09:31:28.519 --> 09:31:35.800
nothing going on in your life to play. Most peaceful

2936
09:31:45.599 --> 09:32:20.519
things that you make s between body relaxing, the word

2937
09:32:22.239 --> 09:32:27.080
you say to yourself, lights.

2938
09:32:33.680 --> 09:32:38.599
That you don't need to pay. This is just one world.

2939
09:32:40.440 --> 09:32:52.000
You can just play the soul, the entire body saying

2940
09:32:52.639 --> 09:32:58.639
about the word lights.

2941
09:33:08.760 --> 09:33:21.639
It's uh, sensations of coupsp idea.
