00:00:01.000 --> 00:00:09.359
Hello, Welcome to Jason Newland dot com. My name is

2
00:00:09.480 --> 00:00:10.880
Jason Newland.

3
00:00:12.679 --> 00:00:23.960
This is this let me boy to sleep, Whisper Wednesday

4
00:00:25.199 --> 00:00:26.359
and Finny.

5
00:00:27.239 --> 00:00:29.879
As soon as I start doing his recording, he's up

6
00:00:29.920 --> 00:00:34.280
and awake. He was fast to sleep about thirty seconds ago.

7
00:00:38.840 --> 00:00:40.479
I think he just wants a bit of a cuddle.

8
00:00:44.159 --> 00:00:48.719
So to say hello to everyone, A big special hello

9
00:00:48.840 --> 00:00:53.359
to Ben, who is the only person I know that

10
00:00:53.560 --> 00:00:58.479
likes the Whisper Wednesdays Wednesday Whisper whatever this is, I say,

11
00:00:58.520 --> 00:01:03.479
the only person I know that likes They do get

12
00:01:03.520 --> 00:01:08.439
listened to by lots of people, but just you know,

13
00:01:08.519 --> 00:01:11.280
I mean I know that. Hi, Ben, That's what I'm saying.

14
00:01:11.319 --> 00:01:19.480
Is high Vinnie slo to Ben. He said hi as well,

15
00:01:20.439 --> 00:01:22.599
actually said no, I don't have to do what you

16
00:01:22.640 --> 00:01:34.280
tell me. He's very rude. So today's Wednesday. I've got

17
00:01:34.439 --> 00:01:38.879
no one do they were? The date is? I think

18
00:01:38.920 --> 00:01:49.040
it's the eleventh of June twenty twenty five. I was

19
00:01:49.120 --> 00:01:54.000
thinking about doing this recording, but I was watching something

20
00:01:54.000 --> 00:01:59.640
on TV and then there was this massive sound outside

21
00:02:00.640 --> 00:02:04.959
because I had the window open, and I thought it's

22
00:02:05.079 --> 00:02:10.080
the lawn mower men just cutting the lawn, which means

23
00:02:11.360 --> 00:02:18.560
it's loud, but it doesn't last long. But it seemed

24
00:02:18.599 --> 00:02:22.439
to be lasting a little bit longer than normal because

25
00:02:24.159 --> 00:02:31.840
the communal garden air is very small. It doesn't take

26
00:02:31.919 --> 00:02:41.360
more than probably five minutes for them to come. And

27
00:02:41.400 --> 00:02:43.759
then they started to start to hear a Revin like

28
00:02:44.000 --> 00:02:48.199
where has my impression of a raven? And I realized

29
00:02:48.240 --> 00:02:55.080
there was a motorbike over the fence, so I had

30
00:02:55.080 --> 00:02:57.840
to close the window because it was way too loud.

31
00:02:59.479 --> 00:03:06.199
But when as the window, the motorbike stopped, and now

32
00:03:06.240 --> 00:03:12.479
I can just hear loads of voices. So I'm going

33
00:03:12.560 --> 00:03:19.240
to continue making this recording, even though literally as we speak,

34
00:03:20.560 --> 00:03:23.520
I heard the person's trying to start the motorbike again.

35
00:03:29.319 --> 00:03:36.879
It's just yeah, it's not it's very loud. It's very

36
00:03:37.080 --> 00:03:45.439
very loud. I might just continue talking anyway, because you

37
00:03:45.560 --> 00:03:47.599
may not help. It might not be very loud on

38
00:03:47.639 --> 00:04:00.080
the microphone because he's literally outside over the fence and

39
00:04:00.560 --> 00:04:03.240
you might not hear it, or it might be very faint.

40
00:04:04.360 --> 00:04:09.520
I can hear it, well, I can't hear it now

41
00:04:09.520 --> 00:04:15.360
because it's not it's not going. But anyway, oh yeah,

42
00:04:15.479 --> 00:04:19.680
please only listen when you can safely close your eyes.

43
00:04:22.639 --> 00:04:27.920
It's times like this that I that I feel glad

44
00:04:28.600 --> 00:04:37.680
that yesterday I actually made use of the day and

45
00:04:37.759 --> 00:04:44.160
made some recordings. Because a day when there's a motorbike

46
00:04:44.319 --> 00:04:48.480
being reved all day long, which has happened while for

47
00:04:48.519 --> 00:04:55.560
a few hours anyway, it's I just find it distracted

48
00:04:56.759 --> 00:05:00.480
to make a recording. I mean, I can't make any

49
00:05:00.519 --> 00:05:08.839
kind of hypnosis and stuff like that. But yesterday added

50
00:05:08.959 --> 00:05:12.639
to a couple of new recordings as well as the

51
00:05:14.720 --> 00:05:22.000
Drivia Tuesday. This is Whisper Wednesday, Wednesday whispers Whisper Wednesday,

52
00:05:22.040 --> 00:05:27.040
isn't it. I'm trying to trying to stick to the

53
00:05:27.160 --> 00:05:39.759
routine of Monday's boring objects, Trivia Tuesday, Whisper Wednesday, and

54
00:05:39.920 --> 00:05:44.959
Q and A Friday. So that's four four days when

55
00:05:45.000 --> 00:05:52.319
it's like a regular type of recording. So I do try.

56
00:05:52.600 --> 00:05:58.800
I am trying, not very hard, but very minimally giving

57
00:05:58.839 --> 00:06:05.279
it a go. Oh yeah, oh yeah. I found a

58
00:06:05.319 --> 00:06:10.279
new way and some exercise. I came using the word

59
00:06:10.439 --> 00:06:18.519
exercise very flimsily, but took my little one out three

60
00:06:18.600 --> 00:06:25.600
for a W A L K and I and he

61
00:06:25.759 --> 00:06:31.759
started pulling me towards the bridge. So I got this

62
00:06:31.959 --> 00:06:36.480
railway bridge and it's not even really used. I think

63
00:06:36.560 --> 00:06:38.560
it was originally built because they were going to be

64
00:06:38.560 --> 00:06:41.680
building a railway station there, and they never built the

65
00:06:41.720 --> 00:06:46.040
railway station, but they put a brand new bridge in.

66
00:06:46.319 --> 00:06:50.240
It's one of those really nice bridges. I'd say, really

67
00:06:50.319 --> 00:06:52.800
nice bridges. I mean, you might not be into bridges,

68
00:06:53.920 --> 00:06:58.759
but it's like metal and there's steps coming up. Also

69
00:06:58.800 --> 00:07:02.079
i'd be cramp as well. So you foot on a

70
00:07:02.199 --> 00:07:10.279
bike or in a wheelchair you can get access. And

71
00:07:10.360 --> 00:07:16.240
it's a big, old, big old bridge. And for some reason,

72
00:07:16.399 --> 00:07:20.040
Venue was just trying to take me. I just wanted

73
00:07:20.079 --> 00:07:23.399
to take me away from I think what it is

74
00:07:23.439 --> 00:07:29.279
he gets bored being in the same little park every day.

75
00:07:30.959 --> 00:07:34.079
He wants to go for a walk and explore other places.

76
00:07:37.519 --> 00:07:39.519
So I just let him lead me the way. I

77
00:07:39.639 --> 00:07:44.920
just sometimes I will do that. I'll just follow him

78
00:07:45.240 --> 00:07:47.959
or as my own friend, and I used to say folly.

79
00:07:48.600 --> 00:07:56.120
I used to follow him, follow folly. And he led

80
00:07:56.160 --> 00:08:03.720
me to the the bridge and he started trying to

81
00:08:03.759 --> 00:08:08.519
walk up the the ramp bit and I pulled him

82
00:08:08.519 --> 00:08:11.680
away and said no, And then he walked and he

83
00:08:11.759 --> 00:08:15.000
tried to cut the steps. So I thought, well, he

84
00:08:15.040 --> 00:08:18.560
clearly wants to go up here, so I just followed

85
00:08:18.600 --> 00:08:27.360
him up the steps. He walked across the bridge, and

86
00:08:27.399 --> 00:08:31.000
then I think we went down the ramp. No, we

87
00:08:31.040 --> 00:08:37.399
went down the steps, and then he wanted to walk

88
00:08:40.279 --> 00:08:46.039
further away, which would be leading us pretty much to nowhere, really,

89
00:08:48.080 --> 00:08:57.279
and I thought, no, but he clearly wants to have

90
00:08:57.320 --> 00:09:00.759
a good walk, and I need a walk. I need

91
00:09:00.799 --> 00:09:06.159
to I get out walking, but I don't. I don't

92
00:09:06.200 --> 00:09:12.639
walk any kind of real distance, not really. I don't

93
00:09:12.639 --> 00:09:16.720
think I get my ten thousand steps a day. I

94
00:09:16.759 --> 00:09:19.399
get a few thousand, but I don't think ten thousand.

95
00:09:20.919 --> 00:09:26.320
Maybe I do, but I doubt it. I've never counted them.

96
00:09:26.519 --> 00:09:28.960
It's quite hard, though, isn't if you count your steps

97
00:09:29.919 --> 00:09:34.360
and then another dog walker says, hello, what am I

98
00:09:34.399 --> 00:09:37.799
supposed to do? Is a wait a second? Let me

99
00:09:37.879 --> 00:09:40.840
just write down the steps that I've done so far.

100
00:09:43.039 --> 00:09:49.679
It's I think there's a catchy. You can get a

101
00:09:49.840 --> 00:09:57.440
step counter. There used to be this thing that you

102
00:09:57.480 --> 00:10:02.600
could use, which it basically it was like a wheel

103
00:10:04.559 --> 00:10:07.919
and you put it on the ground and you walked

104
00:10:08.000 --> 00:10:11.679
with it, pushing it, and it measured the distance that

105
00:10:11.720 --> 00:10:19.360
you went. And I used to use I used to

106
00:10:19.399 --> 00:10:21.080
I used to have one of them, and I'd use

107
00:10:21.159 --> 00:10:24.559
it sometimes in London because I wanted to see how

108
00:10:24.600 --> 00:10:30.559
far it walked. It was very weird looks, but you can't. Yeah,

109
00:10:30.600 --> 00:10:36.399
apparently there's I think the step o meter things is

110
00:10:36.519 --> 00:10:44.240
just because you shake so literally. You could just, I

111
00:10:44.279 --> 00:10:49.919
don't know, stand on one of those shaky machines and

112
00:10:50.000 --> 00:10:54.440
it looks like you've walked for miles when in fact

113
00:10:54.480 --> 00:10:58.240
you haven't done anything. Or you could bounce on a

114
00:10:58.279 --> 00:11:09.639
bouncy castle. That would be exercise as well, wouldn't it. Yeah,

115
00:11:09.759 --> 00:11:14.960
I wonder if it registers steps on the Moon. I

116
00:11:14.960 --> 00:11:19.000
don't mean we're not walking, I mean somebody that was

117
00:11:19.039 --> 00:11:26.200
on the moon. But then I suppose because it's so advanced,

118
00:11:26.279 --> 00:11:32.720
isn't it or the technology that they probably are registering

119
00:11:33.080 --> 00:11:38.440
the distance did the astronauts are traveling anyway, and how

120
00:11:38.480 --> 00:11:42.360
many steps they take. Plus they don't have to make

121
00:11:42.399 --> 00:11:48.080
as many steps today because they're almost being bulled into space,

122
00:11:49.879 --> 00:11:53.960
but the heavy boots keep them down, which I never understood.

123
00:11:54.840 --> 00:12:04.679
How heavy are those shoes? Wouldn't it make more sense

124
00:12:04.840 --> 00:12:09.279
right because if the shoes are really really heavy, because

125
00:12:09.279 --> 00:12:12.600
you imagine if we didn't have any gravity on this planet,

126
00:12:14.039 --> 00:12:18.840
we would just end up in the sky. How heavy

127
00:12:18.919 --> 00:12:22.399
would we have to have How heavy would our shoes

128
00:12:22.440 --> 00:12:25.559
have to be to keep us stuck to the ground.

129
00:12:26.480 --> 00:12:35.799
Because I've seen movies where no gravity and things cars

130
00:12:35.799 --> 00:12:39.639
are just being pulled up into the air because there's

131
00:12:39.639 --> 00:12:45.639
no gravity. Okay, it's a movie. But if that's the case,

132
00:12:45.679 --> 00:12:53.080
does that mean that the astronauts shoes, slippers or boots whatever, boots.

133
00:12:53.120 --> 00:12:59.320
I guess the astronauts boots, well into boots are heavier

134
00:12:59.320 --> 00:13:07.879
than a car. So if that's the case, then that's

135
00:13:07.960 --> 00:13:14.039
gotta be part of reason why it's so hard to

136
00:13:14.200 --> 00:13:18.799
get into space, because it's not so much getting through

137
00:13:18.840 --> 00:13:25.879
the atmosphere. The rocket is the weight of those shoes,

138
00:13:26.279 --> 00:13:30.279
the astronauts' shoes. So when it makes sense if they

139
00:13:30.399 --> 00:13:35.840
just add a little I don't know, on the Moon

140
00:13:36.799 --> 00:13:42.440
or on the space station, a shoe couped or something

141
00:13:44.799 --> 00:13:47.759
where they can just leave the shoes there so they

142
00:13:47.759 --> 00:13:52.840
could wear slippers or crocs going up and then when

143
00:13:52.840 --> 00:13:55.600
they get there they can put on and slip into

144
00:13:55.639 --> 00:14:04.399
their astronaut wellies. They were really heavy, they might end

145
00:14:04.440 --> 00:14:07.879
up using a lot less fuel. They might get that quicker.

146
00:14:12.039 --> 00:14:19.080
I might have just solved a big issue. See, it's

147
00:14:19.120 --> 00:14:27.840
amazing what you can do and you're not even trying.

148
00:14:29.080 --> 00:14:32.120
That's the problem. But I bet you're not one astronaut

149
00:14:33.080 --> 00:14:42.440
or not one astro physicist or the scientist is listening

150
00:14:42.480 --> 00:14:47.559
to this, because if they were, this could change the

151
00:14:47.679 --> 00:14:56.240
whole the whole landscape of space travel. In fact, it

152
00:14:56.279 --> 00:15:02.240
could be the break needed that could bridge. Got back

153
00:15:02.279 --> 00:15:11.159
to the talking about bridges, could bridge towards further exploration

154
00:15:12.919 --> 00:15:15.240
because it'd be able to get in and out of

155
00:15:15.240 --> 00:15:20.360
space a lot quicker. And they could just start to

156
00:15:20.480 --> 00:15:24.200
store stuff in space, on the space station or on

157
00:15:24.279 --> 00:15:27.399
the Moon and have that as a like a fuck

158
00:15:27.440 --> 00:15:32.159
a lock up, you know, like an old lockup just

159
00:15:32.240 --> 00:15:36.720
keeps their spare stuff in there. Well, they could even

160
00:15:36.720 --> 00:15:39.240
open shops up, really, but I guess that's more for

161
00:15:39.279 --> 00:15:48.480
the future, like a shoe shop. And helmets. Do they

162
00:15:48.559 --> 00:15:53.440
need their helmet on when they're traveling up again, I'm

163
00:15:53.480 --> 00:15:58.120
not sure. I thought the container though in was pressurized,

164
00:16:00.279 --> 00:16:03.600
which meant they'll be able to breathe. I might be wrong.

165
00:16:07.799 --> 00:16:12.799
What they could do is fill you know, the airbags

166
00:16:13.039 --> 00:16:16.320
that they have on their back, which gives them oxygen.

167
00:16:17.159 --> 00:16:23.080
Why not fill them with oxygen, like thousands of them,

168
00:16:23.320 --> 00:16:28.879
and just keep taking them into space so that eventually

169
00:16:29.679 --> 00:16:37.840
we have unlimited supply of oxygen up there. But I

170
00:16:37.879 --> 00:16:40.279
don't know would that run out the oxygen in this

171
00:16:40.399 --> 00:16:46.559
world we kept filling. If you kept filling an oxygen

172
00:16:46.600 --> 00:16:51.879
tank up from oxygen the air, and you did that,

173
00:16:51.960 --> 00:16:54.799
you got millions and billions and millions of them with

174
00:16:55.399 --> 00:17:01.440
the oxygen right now. And another thing is that was

175
00:17:01.559 --> 00:17:07.359
the life or you know, the life span of oxygen.

176
00:17:08.720 --> 00:17:12.640
Does he go off after a few years? Does he

177
00:17:12.720 --> 00:17:18.519
go malty? Because I used to think that soup tense

178
00:17:18.680 --> 00:17:29.160
soup lasts forever. I remember seeing these again. I'm not

179
00:17:29.200 --> 00:17:31.799
sure if there were documentaries or if there are movies

180
00:17:31.960 --> 00:17:36.039
or TV shows where people would be climbing up and

181
00:17:36.200 --> 00:17:40.400
mountain and they get to a shack or some kind

182
00:17:40.400 --> 00:17:47.960
of wooden the house and it'd be a cellar, or

183
00:17:48.000 --> 00:17:51.359
it'd be like like we have lots of food and stuff,

184
00:17:51.640 --> 00:17:56.039
but all tinned food, because bananas don't last long on

185
00:17:56.079 --> 00:18:03.799
a mountain. It's but they go there and the last

186
00:18:03.799 --> 00:18:07.039
time anyone was there was like one hundred years ago,

187
00:18:08.200 --> 00:18:13.279
because someone wrote in the book, I was here one

188
00:18:13.319 --> 00:18:19.799
hundred years ago. Or I don't know, whatever, and they'd

189
00:18:19.799 --> 00:18:22.359
open up the food in the tin and they'd eat

190
00:18:22.400 --> 00:18:26.319
it and it'd be all y y yum, yum yum.

191
00:18:26.680 --> 00:18:32.319
Mind you, cat food would taste amazing if you hadn't

192
00:18:32.319 --> 00:18:35.240
eaten for five days, wouldn't it. It would be the

193
00:18:35.319 --> 00:18:41.559
most delicious thing you'd ever eat it. And it tastes

194
00:18:41.559 --> 00:18:44.599
even better if you didn't know his cat food. So

195
00:18:44.799 --> 00:18:49.880
don't present it in a cat food bowl. Probably not

196
00:18:49.960 --> 00:18:52.400
that you're can present it. I mean, if someone's hungry

197
00:18:54.279 --> 00:18:56.119
and you give us some food and they haven't eaten

198
00:18:56.200 --> 00:19:00.000
for days, you're not gonna be worried about present day.

199
00:19:01.359 --> 00:19:05.319
I suppose you just they'd probably be happy just to

200
00:19:05.359 --> 00:19:12.039
eat it out of the tin. What I used to

201
00:19:12.119 --> 00:19:21.240
think the all tins lasted like forever, I say forever,

202
00:19:21.319 --> 00:19:24.960
maybe not thousands of years, but just a long long

203
00:19:25.039 --> 00:19:30.000
time because they were air tight and they were built

204
00:19:30.039 --> 00:19:34.240
to last. Well, let me tell you the tins are

205
00:19:34.240 --> 00:19:40.240
today are not built to last. I had some tins

206
00:19:40.279 --> 00:19:45.000
of soup and they were good ones like Hines. They weren't,

207
00:19:46.200 --> 00:19:49.960
you know, they weren't like Little Iron Brand. Not did

208
00:19:50.000 --> 00:19:54.920
it's anything wrong with a Little Iron Brand. I'm just

209
00:19:55.000 --> 00:19:59.480
saying it was heines the most I would say, probably

210
00:19:59.480 --> 00:20:03.759
the most faith miss soup maker in this country anyway,

211
00:20:06.599 --> 00:20:12.519
heinz tomato soup and most people, even if they don't,

212
00:20:14.279 --> 00:20:17.519
I have soup. I nearly said, eat soup. But soup

213
00:20:17.640 --> 00:20:22.000
is eating. It's drunk, isn't it. Even if it's got

214
00:20:22.240 --> 00:20:27.559
vegetables in and stuff. It's just lumpy water, lumpy flavored water.

215
00:20:27.680 --> 00:20:31.039
That's what it is. It's not a meal at best,

216
00:20:31.240 --> 00:20:36.759
It's a starter's Did I ever tell you about the

217
00:20:36.839 --> 00:20:42.680
day I went on and she said, would you like

218
00:20:42.720 --> 00:20:47.200
some lunch before we go out? And I thought, oh yeah.

219
00:20:47.599 --> 00:20:54.119
She gave me soup and one piece of bread. I

220
00:20:54.240 --> 00:20:58.240
was like, what am I? Is this a day or

221
00:20:59.160 --> 00:21:01.680
is this my first stay in prison? I mean, what,

222
00:21:01.680 --> 00:21:05.880
what the heck? I'm literally I get a better fed

223
00:21:05.920 --> 00:21:12.680
in prison. That was what was going on. Those are

224
00:21:12.680 --> 00:21:16.359
the days where my belly didn't enjoy soup. I needed food.

225
00:21:19.440 --> 00:21:23.440
The same thing happened when I visited my dad my

226
00:21:23.559 --> 00:21:30.240
step mom, and this was I think it was December

227
00:21:34.359 --> 00:21:43.200
two thousand and eleven, December two thousand and eleven, and

228
00:21:43.279 --> 00:21:46.440
I just wanted to tell them because I'd just been

229
00:21:46.480 --> 00:21:50.279
diagnosed with bipolar, and I wanted to tell them because

230
00:21:50.319 --> 00:21:53.799
it was I don't know, it just seemed like the

231
00:21:53.880 --> 00:21:57.240
right thing to let them know. I think when my dad,

232
00:21:57.400 --> 00:21:59.359
well maybe both of them looked at each other like

233
00:22:00.559 --> 00:22:07.960
that explains it. But what I remember about that meeting

234
00:22:08.960 --> 00:22:17.079
is with me in this restaurant cafe. Place had soup, soup.

235
00:22:17.640 --> 00:22:20.480
I had no money, so I can they paid for

236
00:22:20.519 --> 00:22:27.279
the meal and they had soup. In fact, I'm pretty

237
00:22:27.279 --> 00:22:30.599
sort of conversations, should we just all had some soup.

238
00:22:31.039 --> 00:22:36.200
I'm like, I thought they were joking soup. We could

239
00:22:36.200 --> 00:22:41.720
have done that at home. I don't know why I'm

240
00:22:41.720 --> 00:22:46.359
focused on soup today. I just I like soup. I'm

241
00:22:46.400 --> 00:22:51.039
not prejudiced against soup. I'm not, you know.

242
00:22:54.480 --> 00:22:55.400
I do like.

243
00:22:57.680 --> 00:23:03.119
Chicken soup, like cream cream of chicken or I don't know, creamy,

244
00:23:03.279 --> 00:23:08.519
that's nice. I'm not so beef broth, non not so

245
00:23:08.640 --> 00:23:15.839
much vegetable soup. Okay, tomato soup and ticks the boxes

246
00:23:15.839 --> 00:23:25.440
for me. But it's not a meal. It's not a meal.

247
00:23:26.640 --> 00:23:28.920
Or they're thinking about it. Maybe I'm going to start

248
00:23:29.200 --> 00:23:32.640
it's weird. It's now start off moaning about soup. Now

249
00:23:32.759 --> 00:23:35.759
starting to think I'd quite like a nice bowl of soup.

250
00:23:37.119 --> 00:23:38.960
What a strange brain.

251
00:23:39.200 --> 00:23:39.519
I have.

252
00:23:42.079 --> 00:23:45.079
A nice bowl of soup and a few, maybe two

253
00:23:45.119 --> 00:23:48.920
or three slices of toast. It seemed like a real

254
00:23:49.079 --> 00:23:52.440
yummy thing. But I don't. I don't have any soup

255
00:23:53.359 --> 00:23:56.759
I did. That's what I'm telling the story. I had

256
00:23:56.960 --> 00:23:57.599
some soup.

257
00:23:58.359 --> 00:23:58.680
O can't.

258
00:23:58.680 --> 00:24:03.480
That's the pointers. They're supposed to last a long time.

259
00:24:06.599 --> 00:24:09.400
I went into the cupboard and next to.

260
00:24:09.640 --> 00:24:15.039
The cooker on the left hand side, underneath. I don't

261
00:24:15.039 --> 00:24:20.200
go in thatck cupboard really ever, and I went in there.

262
00:24:20.160 --> 00:24:26.119
Just to look what's in there. The colden tins of

263
00:24:26.240 --> 00:24:28.759
soup bour in there, so I went to pick one

264
00:24:28.839 --> 00:24:36.720
up and it was empty, while it also leaked, so

265
00:24:36.839 --> 00:24:45.000
basically all the soup cans had disintegrated to the point

266
00:24:45.599 --> 00:24:51.480
where the lids came off, the contents leaked out and

267
00:24:51.599 --> 00:24:55.759
also disintegrated. There was no smell or anything. It's just

268
00:24:57.359 --> 00:25:00.279
it'd been there for maybe six years, seven year years,

269
00:25:03.720 --> 00:25:11.240
completely destroyed. And the ironic thing is, on that particular day,

270
00:25:11.799 --> 00:25:18.559
really fenceed a bowl of soup. I remember thinking, why

271
00:25:18.640 --> 00:25:22.519
don't I drink more soup? I really used to like soup,

272
00:25:24.200 --> 00:25:28.440
which I did, but I was a kid back then,

273
00:25:32.599 --> 00:25:34.440
and I used to get soup whenever I was a

274
00:25:34.440 --> 00:25:37.839
little bit bally. Maybe i'd coloring from school or maybe

275
00:25:37.920 --> 00:25:41.720
half the day off, and I remember sitting at the table.

276
00:25:42.680 --> 00:25:45.079
My stepmom would be looking after me, and she'd make

277
00:25:45.119 --> 00:25:51.880
me some soup and I'd watch Sesame Street on television,

278
00:25:52.680 --> 00:25:55.519
because I think Sesame Street used to be on about

279
00:25:55.559 --> 00:26:05.640
midday and it was great color. Bits of toast. A

280
00:26:05.680 --> 00:26:07.519
cup of tea as well. Though that was a bit

281
00:26:07.559 --> 00:26:12.839
weird because it feels like you have a liquid drink

282
00:26:13.160 --> 00:26:16.680
with solid food. It almost felt like I should be

283
00:26:16.720 --> 00:26:21.680
hearing some kind of solid drink, maybe an icicle or something.

284
00:26:25.119 --> 00:26:30.640
I don't know. You can only get solid drinks ken you,

285
00:26:30.759 --> 00:26:35.079
other than a slushy. Maybe that's quite solid. I'm not

286
00:26:35.079 --> 00:26:38.680
sure that would fit together with soup, though what soup.

287
00:26:43.799 --> 00:26:46.720
I suppose. I feel a little bit nostalgic towards some

288
00:26:46.799 --> 00:26:52.359
of those times because I got to spend time with

289
00:26:52.440 --> 00:26:53.720
my stepmom.

290
00:26:53.559 --> 00:26:54.039
With me and.

291
00:26:57.680 --> 00:26:59.880
No one else. There was just nice, quite a piece

292
00:27:00.079 --> 00:27:04.720
for no arguments, you know, And I'm just like, I

293
00:27:04.839 --> 00:27:10.960
didn't be soup. It's weird how quickly soup cools down

294
00:27:13.000 --> 00:27:16.920
and you think like it can be like super boiling

295
00:27:17.000 --> 00:27:20.640
hot and you put the spoon in because the spoon

296
00:27:20.759 --> 00:27:25.039
is metal, it conducts the heat. I think that might be,

297
00:27:25.279 --> 00:27:28.720
you know, but the spoon's very hot and you're not

298
00:27:28.839 --> 00:27:36.920
blowing on the spooner and then the soups squirting off

299
00:27:37.079 --> 00:27:40.519
the spoon. It depends how hard you blow it. Guess

300
00:27:41.400 --> 00:27:43.839
could just like spray over everyone else at the table.

301
00:27:43.880 --> 00:27:47.359
But or you make a little dent in it, don't

302
00:27:47.400 --> 00:27:52.319
you almost like if you mind? Are you used to

303
00:27:52.400 --> 00:27:54.960
do these? I used to try because I have a

304
00:27:55.000 --> 00:27:58.200
spoon and look at it, I'd fill it with soup

305
00:27:58.480 --> 00:28:01.400
and I'll try and blow it. So they had parted

306
00:28:01.440 --> 00:28:04.720
in the middle a bit like Moses, did you know

307
00:28:04.759 --> 00:28:12.559
with the ritzy and I just pretend, you know, to

308
00:28:12.599 --> 00:28:16.599
hear music, pretend to hear music. Sometimes I would hear

309
00:28:16.680 --> 00:28:25.839
music if music was being played. So yeah, tomato soup

310
00:28:27.720 --> 00:28:31.960
or any kind of soup would be an opportunity to

311
00:28:34.559 --> 00:28:40.319
reenact the Moses scene from the Bible. I'm sure I'm

312
00:28:40.359 --> 00:28:47.880
not the only one that did that. So that was

313
00:28:48.000 --> 00:28:56.720
pretty good special effects considering the movie was like the sixties,

314
00:28:58.319 --> 00:29:03.920
the Moses pion this I think I don't know if

315
00:29:03.920 --> 00:29:08.519
it was just the Bible was the movie there was

316
00:29:08.559 --> 00:29:13.880
another one, the greatest story ever told. Maybe it was

317
00:29:13.920 --> 00:29:23.359
actually called Moses. But yeah, that scene where they're walking

318
00:29:23.440 --> 00:29:28.000
across the sea and all the se the sea wall

319
00:29:29.000 --> 00:29:32.319
is kind of just splashing, But it's not. That's the

320
00:29:32.319 --> 00:29:39.720
weird thing about it. That's the It didn't seem realistic

321
00:29:39.799 --> 00:29:43.400
in one sense, because if you had the sea parted

322
00:29:44.880 --> 00:29:49.039
and you're walking down and there's a bigger wall and both,

323
00:29:49.400 --> 00:29:59.440
you know there'd be some splash back. When not one splash,

324
00:29:59.640 --> 00:30:03.039
they just water along knowing, you know, you'd think they'd

325
00:30:03.039 --> 00:30:06.480
be a I mean, you wouldn't moan about a little

326
00:30:06.559 --> 00:30:09.680
a few splashes. You know, you can't get to the

327
00:30:09.720 --> 00:30:13.799
other side. And Moses would be fitting pretty proud of them,

328
00:30:13.799 --> 00:30:17.519
so probably, and everyone's saying, oh, well done, Moses. And

329
00:30:18.440 --> 00:30:27.200
one person says, oh, actually, my shoes are ruined. That's

330
00:30:27.240 --> 00:30:32.599
another thing, isn't it. I have I have to clean

331
00:30:32.640 --> 00:30:35.319
my glasses because I'm all the splash back from the water.

332
00:30:38.240 --> 00:30:42.440
When they walked across, the ground was dry. Now the

333
00:30:42.480 --> 00:30:47.000
ground would be wet, wouldn't it be muddy? I know

334
00:30:47.039 --> 00:30:55.240
it's just details, but you know, maybe that's not the

335
00:30:55.240 --> 00:30:57.319
most unrealistic part of the whole story.

336
00:30:58.519 --> 00:30:59.880
Maybe hmm.

337
00:31:04.039 --> 00:31:09.839
So we're walking over this bridge, and I thought to myself,

338
00:31:10.799 --> 00:31:19.680
this is quite a distance, really walking over, going down

339
00:31:19.720 --> 00:31:27.000
the steps, walking all the way back the long ramp,

340
00:31:27.640 --> 00:31:34.400
back to the bridge again, crossing over, walking down the steps,

341
00:31:35.680 --> 00:31:38.559
then walking up then the other ramp on the other side,

342
00:31:38.799 --> 00:31:41.960
which is like up one end and then back again.

343
00:31:42.119 --> 00:31:47.400
Says I thought, you know, if I started doing that,

344
00:31:48.279 --> 00:31:52.160
maybe did that ten times a day. I don't mean

345
00:31:52.240 --> 00:31:55.720
going up there ten times and walking over it once.

346
00:31:57.640 --> 00:31:57.920
More.

347
00:31:58.319 --> 00:32:04.759
Maybe mhm, go in there once and doing it ten times,

348
00:32:08.319 --> 00:32:18.039
maybe twice and doing it five times. Oh, I could

349
00:32:18.039 --> 00:32:25.440
carry it five times and do it twice. I could

350
00:32:26.039 --> 00:32:31.640
go there three times and do it three three times

351
00:32:33.440 --> 00:32:37.240
three six Oh no, I could do it three in

352
00:32:37.279 --> 00:32:46.559
a bit. Or I could do it three times and

353
00:32:46.759 --> 00:32:49.880
on every third day do an extra time, maybe do

354
00:32:49.960 --> 00:32:59.880
a fourth that makes sense. Three six nine, No, wait

355
00:33:00.079 --> 00:33:06.119
in it three six nine, three six nine No, every

356
00:33:06.200 --> 00:33:16.039
other day to no three six nine, So nine nine

357
00:33:16.240 --> 00:33:19.559
nine nine nine nine nine nine nine. So that'll be

358
00:33:19.599 --> 00:33:25.640
ten days. It'd be ninety instead of one hundred. So

359
00:33:25.960 --> 00:33:33.519
on the tenth day I could do twenty or on

360
00:33:33.599 --> 00:33:41.920
the fifth day, do fifteen and not twentieth day to fifteen.

361
00:33:42.680 --> 00:33:44.559
Would you mean it would be the quiner doing ten

362
00:33:44.640 --> 00:33:51.799
a day. I think I'm not sure if it's really

363
00:33:51.880 --> 00:34:00.680
necessary to get too bogged down in specifics regarding how

364
00:34:01.240 --> 00:34:05.720
many times I is to walk over it. But I

365
00:34:05.880 --> 00:34:11.039
thought maybe that would be useful to get a little

366
00:34:11.039 --> 00:34:18.480
bit more exercise and you know, get out. Plus, it's

367
00:34:18.519 --> 00:34:22.880
not really anyone around. There are people around, but not much.

368
00:34:27.920 --> 00:34:30.920
And the whole the whole way up and down, it's

369
00:34:31.119 --> 00:34:36.119
up the ramp and across the bridge is all it's

370
00:34:36.159 --> 00:34:40.159
got sight starhle way, Sovin he can't wonder off. He

371
00:34:40.679 --> 00:34:45.800
kind of can only go one way or go backwards

372
00:34:46.000 --> 00:34:51.079
or stop, which he likes to stop. He just likes

373
00:34:51.119 --> 00:34:53.039
to do the opposite to what I want him to do.

374
00:34:55.920 --> 00:35:00.039
Earlier today we went into the park and a the

375
00:35:00.159 --> 00:35:04.440
thing he did was he stole another dog's ball, Amber's

376
00:35:04.480 --> 00:35:09.559
ball that sent the name of the dog. He would

377
00:35:09.679 --> 00:35:13.719
not let it go and the ball was too big

378
00:35:13.719 --> 00:35:18.039
for his mouth. It was huge, but he loved it.

379
00:35:19.280 --> 00:35:21.800
He fell in love with his ball. It's almost like

380
00:35:21.880 --> 00:35:25.360
he was the most precious item in the whole world.

381
00:35:28.599 --> 00:35:31.320
I literally had to pick him up and price it

382
00:35:31.360 --> 00:35:34.679
out of his mouth so I could give it back

383
00:35:34.719 --> 00:35:38.920
to the dog. He didn't want to give it back.

384
00:35:39.119 --> 00:35:43.639
There was one point, right, I kind of picked him

385
00:35:43.679 --> 00:35:45.920
up a little bit to get it out of his mouth,

386
00:35:45.960 --> 00:35:48.880
and he wouldn't let it go, so I started message

387
00:35:48.920 --> 00:35:53.400
in his hands. Now he does not let me do

388
00:35:53.519 --> 00:36:01.119
that ever, without growling and snapping. Doesn't like me doing that.

389
00:36:02.039 --> 00:36:04.719
By this occasion, he couldn't do anything because this ball

390
00:36:04.840 --> 00:36:09.000
was in his mouth. So I'm thinking next hour, the

391
00:36:09.039 --> 00:36:14.320
next time I want to cut his toenails. I'm just

392
00:36:14.360 --> 00:36:16.920
going to stick a ball, get him to hold the ball,

393
00:36:17.719 --> 00:36:24.599
and then he won't be right I want to do maybe.

394
00:36:26.239 --> 00:36:28.400
I think it's good though, because he needs to spend

395
00:36:28.440 --> 00:36:32.000
more time walking on the pavement, because his toenails do

396
00:36:32.159 --> 00:36:35.039
need to get trimmed a little bit. They're not long,

397
00:36:36.199 --> 00:36:42.639
but they're not sure either. That's weird. The feet, his

398
00:36:42.800 --> 00:36:47.719
feet toenails are always sure, but his finger donails or

399
00:36:47.719 --> 00:36:53.199
his toetoel, his toe toenails, his finger toenails, his fingernails

400
00:36:53.480 --> 00:36:59.360
are longer than his toenails. And it's not like he's

401
00:37:02.239 --> 00:37:07.239
walking sideways to his feet or on the pavement and

402
00:37:07.320 --> 00:37:10.800
his hands are on the grass. You know, that would

403
00:37:10.800 --> 00:37:13.360
make sense, and you know if that's why there are

404
00:37:13.400 --> 00:37:19.280
different lengths, but no, normally he does running forward and

405
00:37:19.360 --> 00:37:21.760
he's see if on the path where he's on the

406
00:37:22.599 --> 00:37:28.719
grass or in the mud or wherever. Although he does

407
00:37:28.880 --> 00:37:34.800
love running into the long grass. It's this thing. I

408
00:37:34.840 --> 00:37:36.960
don't know if other parts of the country to it,

409
00:37:37.079 --> 00:37:40.599
or other parts of the world to do this. The

410
00:37:40.760 --> 00:37:48.960
council a ordered the lord mower, people who cut the

411
00:37:48.960 --> 00:37:55.840
grass in the park, to leave certain areas wild. When

412
00:37:55.840 --> 00:38:00.400
I say wild, I don't mean angry, you know, just

413
00:38:00.639 --> 00:38:03.000
walking up to that bit of grass and teasing it

414
00:38:04.639 --> 00:38:09.039
just is dead. Leaving it and not cutting it. So

415
00:38:09.360 --> 00:38:20.920
it's something about well, you encouraging wildlife and then after

416
00:38:21.000 --> 00:38:29.760
about a year they cut it. Another dog walker pointed out, well,

417
00:38:30.239 --> 00:38:33.400
first of all, I don't think it's a huge amount

418
00:38:33.440 --> 00:38:38.480
of wildlife. Maybe there is insects and stuff. That's definitely true,

419
00:38:38.480 --> 00:38:47.360
because those grass flea things they can go on to

420
00:38:47.519 --> 00:38:49.800
him if I let him in the long grass. So

421
00:38:49.920 --> 00:38:52.679
I don't And before I used to have him off

422
00:38:52.719 --> 00:38:55.719
the lead in the park and he used to love

423
00:38:55.800 --> 00:38:59.360
the long grass bed come home with all his ticks

424
00:38:59.440 --> 00:39:03.559
and stuff like that. Now I don't let him going

425
00:39:03.599 --> 00:39:10.000
along grass and he's got nothing. Hasn't it any for

426
00:39:11.079 --> 00:39:20.599
over a year? Hasn't it anything on him? And someone

427
00:39:20.719 --> 00:39:23.360
I think a couple of days ago another dog walker

428
00:39:24.159 --> 00:39:27.119
was pointing out, it's all fair and well, you know,

429
00:39:27.199 --> 00:39:32.719
them encouraging wildlife, but what happens to that wildlife when

430
00:39:32.719 --> 00:39:37.800
they cut the grass. That's a fair point in it.

431
00:39:40.519 --> 00:39:49.639
The thing is when it comes to wildlife. I literally

432
00:39:49.719 --> 00:40:00.639
lived in the countryside. There's a farm at the end

433
00:40:00.679 --> 00:40:03.960
of each road. At the end of every road there

434
00:40:04.000 --> 00:40:09.400
is a farm. If I turn left, there's farms. Ever

435
00:40:09.519 --> 00:40:14.239
turn right, there's farms. If I go through the park

436
00:40:14.920 --> 00:40:19.639
and keep going through there there's farms. It's just farms everywhere.

437
00:40:20.480 --> 00:40:27.840
By farms, I mean growing farms, not animal farms. I

438
00:40:28.000 --> 00:40:30.679
tell you what animal farm the move. It was very

439
00:40:30.679 --> 00:40:35.480
different from the book. But yeah, as though there's not

440
00:40:35.639 --> 00:40:40.599
really So don't don't get to hear cocks every morning

441
00:40:41.519 --> 00:40:47.679
like cockadoo to do or whatever they do. That wouldn't

442
00:40:47.760 --> 00:40:53.679
bother me really because I'm up quite early anyway. I'm

443
00:40:53.719 --> 00:40:57.039
sure there are some farms like that around here, but

444
00:40:57.079 --> 00:41:02.760
it's really just like growing crops but they're everywhere all

445
00:41:02.760 --> 00:41:08.840
around here. This whole area is farms. But there again,

446
00:41:09.079 --> 00:41:14.400
the whole country is pretty much farmland, with some towns

447
00:41:14.679 --> 00:41:19.599
and some cities and some beaches, but it's just a

448
00:41:19.840 --> 00:41:28.400
huge amount of farmland here. Apparently the bloke who owns

449
00:41:28.440 --> 00:41:32.639
the dice and vacuum cleaner thing, he's the biggest farm

450
00:41:32.679 --> 00:41:39.679
owner in the country, or one of them. And in America,

451
00:41:40.719 --> 00:41:46.760
the biggest farm owner I think is Bill Gates. That's

452
00:41:46.800 --> 00:41:50.519
not just farms, that's land. Isn't it to be a landowner?

453
00:41:54.679 --> 00:41:58.079
If you own the farms, you almost kind of own

454
00:41:58.119 --> 00:42:07.599
the food. Wow. Or there's a plane going past? Maybe

455
00:42:07.639 --> 00:42:12.320
not I taste strange? Oh yeah, I can you hear

456
00:42:12.360 --> 00:42:24.559
that nicer train? Is there a train? I just realized,

457
00:42:24.599 --> 00:42:29.199
I don't think it's very windy today, because normally only

458
00:42:29.239 --> 00:42:35.679
on days when it's very mild, very calm, that I

459
00:42:35.679 --> 00:42:41.159
can hear the trains. When it's windy, I generally can't

460
00:42:41.159 --> 00:42:52.400
hear the trains. Wow, it's lovely out there, blue sky, sunny.

461
00:42:52.920 --> 00:42:55.039
It's going to be difficult because I caught my jumper.

462
00:42:56.960 --> 00:42:58.920
Ah, oh will.

463
00:43:02.519 --> 00:43:05.360
That's kind of strange because I have the window open

464
00:43:05.400 --> 00:43:09.599
most of the time. But when that window closed, it's

465
00:43:09.639 --> 00:43:17.639
so much quieter because that literally just wow over, you know,

466
00:43:18.159 --> 00:43:22.239
in the garden, I can hear I can't hear what

467
00:43:22.239 --> 00:43:25.079
they're saying. Quite often I can't hear what they're saying anyway,

468
00:43:25.519 --> 00:43:32.000
not that I want to, but it's weirdly enough, unless

469
00:43:32.079 --> 00:43:37.679
my hearing has changed, I can't really hear them very well.

470
00:43:39.000 --> 00:43:50.199
I'm not complaining. It's lovely. Oh yes, So yesterday I

471
00:43:50.280 --> 00:43:55.360
walked twice over this bridge. I walked, I went up

472
00:43:55.400 --> 00:44:00.639
the steps, went over, went down the steps, walked back up,

473
00:44:01.440 --> 00:44:06.239
and then back up again. Because the or is it

474
00:44:06.360 --> 00:44:11.360
the the ramp is in two parts. It's quite long.

475
00:44:11.440 --> 00:44:14.960
It's in two parts, so you've got one in. You

476
00:44:15.079 --> 00:44:17.119
got one bit, then you turn around and you come

477
00:44:17.159 --> 00:44:20.559
back the other bit, and it gradually goes up preach

478
00:44:20.679 --> 00:44:24.679
one and then you end up at the top of

479
00:44:25.039 --> 00:44:28.599
the Basically you end up exactly where you were befo

480
00:44:28.599 --> 00:44:31.719
where I was before before I went down the snaps.

481
00:44:35.119 --> 00:44:41.480
It's built for large traffic. Really, it is a kind

482
00:44:41.519 --> 00:44:43.880
of it's the same kind of bridge that you would

483
00:44:43.880 --> 00:44:49.760
see at a busy train station, but there's no train

484
00:44:49.800 --> 00:44:54.920
station there. There is a train track. I think part

485
00:44:54.960 --> 00:44:58.159
of the reason they did it was for safety, which

486
00:44:58.199 --> 00:45:02.559
is fair enough, because people used to just across the track.

487
00:45:02.639 --> 00:45:08.039
There was no way of monitoring it. So it's a

488
00:45:08.079 --> 00:45:13.239
good thing that it's got something over there. But one

489
00:45:13.280 --> 00:45:15.719
of her neighbors when I moved in ten years ago,

490
00:45:15.840 --> 00:45:20.000
said that they spent like half a million pound putting

491
00:45:20.000 --> 00:45:25.440
that bridge up. It still looks in good condition. It's

492
00:45:25.480 --> 00:45:32.760
hardly been used something. Seriously, I reckon the amount of

493
00:45:32.760 --> 00:45:36.880
people that cross that bridge in a year would be

494
00:45:36.880 --> 00:45:40.679
the same amount of people that would cross a busy

495
00:45:40.760 --> 00:45:54.000
train station in a day, probably less. In fact, yeah,

496
00:45:54.119 --> 00:45:58.760
probably if you get fifty people a day crossing that bridge,

497
00:45:58.760 --> 00:46:03.000
I'd be surprised. Mm hmm, maybe one hundred. I'd be

498
00:46:03.039 --> 00:46:06.440
surprised if it was that high. Seriously, as nor lies,

499
00:46:06.480 --> 00:46:13.000
it would I classes two people because I went over twice?

500
00:46:15.599 --> 00:46:22.760
Or did I go over three times? No, I went

501
00:46:22.880 --> 00:46:28.440
over twice, but I went over back twice, and that's

502
00:46:28.559 --> 00:46:32.360
four times actually yesterday. So I went down the down

503
00:46:32.400 --> 00:46:37.440
the So I went up the steps, across the bridge,

504
00:46:39.119 --> 00:46:46.159
down the steps, back up the ramp, across the bridge,

505
00:46:47.280 --> 00:46:54.880
down the steps, back up the ramp, across the bridge,

506
00:46:56.800 --> 00:47:03.000
down the steps and it back up the ramp, across

507
00:47:03.119 --> 00:47:08.440
the bridge, and down the steps, and then we went home.

508
00:47:10.360 --> 00:47:19.559
So what is that? One two three four? So we

509
00:47:20.320 --> 00:47:27.079
crossed the bridge four times? So four times we went

510
00:47:27.199 --> 00:47:32.800
up and down the ramp one two. I don't know

511
00:47:32.800 --> 00:47:36.199
if he said four times we passed over the bridge.

512
00:47:38.559 --> 00:47:40.320
So how many times do we go up the ramp?

513
00:47:41.639 --> 00:47:44.480
So we go up the steps, across the bridge, go

514
00:47:44.760 --> 00:47:49.519
down the steps on the other side, So up the ramp.

515
00:47:49.880 --> 00:47:58.239
So one up the ramp, crossover, down the steps, then

516
00:47:58.480 --> 00:48:04.400
up that ramp again, then crossover down the steps, up

517
00:48:04.480 --> 00:48:14.639
that ramp, crossover and down the steps. It's just three. Okay,

518
00:48:15.000 --> 00:48:20.920
let me do this again. Up the steps, cross the bridge,

519
00:48:21.360 --> 00:48:29.119
down the steps, then up the ramp, crossing over the bridge,

520
00:48:30.440 --> 00:48:35.280
down the steps, then up the ramp, cross over the bridge,

521
00:48:35.559 --> 00:48:40.440
down the steps, up the ramp, cross over the bridge,

522
00:48:40.599 --> 00:48:45.679
and down the steps. So how many times is that

523
00:48:45.760 --> 00:48:54.800
across the bridge? One two, three, four, So it's only

524
00:48:54.920 --> 00:49:01.440
three ramps. I walked up the ramp three times, one

525
00:49:02.960 --> 00:49:13.239
two three. It's that classed as far, you know, because

526
00:49:13.280 --> 00:49:18.519
I've crossed four times. I don't know. Maybe if I

527
00:49:18.679 --> 00:49:23.639
walked up the ramp the first time, crossed over, went

528
00:49:23.719 --> 00:49:28.360
down the steps, then went up the ramp the other

529
00:49:28.480 --> 00:49:32.960
side walked down the steps, went up the ramp, or

530
00:49:33.440 --> 00:49:37.880
what I could do? No, Yeah, I mean I could

531
00:49:37.960 --> 00:49:43.440
just walk up the ramp, cross over the bridge, go

532
00:49:43.679 --> 00:49:48.119
down the ramp, and then just turn back and walk

533
00:49:48.199 --> 00:50:00.880
up the ramp again. But just I don't know. Yeah,

534
00:50:01.000 --> 00:50:05.480
it's a weird one. I'm already sure it's same, but

535
00:50:05.760 --> 00:50:10.119
more maybe walk up the ramp, crossover the bridge, go

536
00:50:10.320 --> 00:50:14.199
down the steps that walk up that ramp, crossover down

537
00:50:14.199 --> 00:50:17.679
the steps, walk up with that, so I don't walk

538
00:50:17.760 --> 00:50:28.599
up any steps. But technically the things I was thinking,

539
00:50:29.159 --> 00:50:31.199
is it better for me to walk up the steps

540
00:50:31.199 --> 00:50:37.519
because that's more exercise. But at the same time, if

541
00:50:37.559 --> 00:50:41.280
I'm walking down a ramp that's not really putting a

542
00:50:41.280 --> 00:50:49.559
lot of energy, is it's because I mean it's not

543
00:50:49.800 --> 00:50:54.000
like steep steep, but it's steep still, you know it's

544
00:50:54.039 --> 00:51:04.199
guy is walking upwards. Yeah, I don't think i'd want

545
00:51:04.239 --> 00:51:09.239
to roll a heavy ball up there. Definitely didn't want

546
00:51:09.239 --> 00:51:10.920
to one of the road trying to roll his skate

547
00:51:11.039 --> 00:51:19.000
up there. Just gravity it, yeah, because if it I

548
00:51:19.159 --> 00:51:28.239
might fall back. I don't know, I have to think

549
00:51:28.280 --> 00:51:31.239
about it. I just thought it'd be quite nice if

550
00:51:31.239 --> 00:51:36.039
I had this, like nice space to take him over

551
00:51:36.159 --> 00:51:43.199
a few times. And another thing I was thinking I

552
00:51:43.239 --> 00:51:45.880
could do is walk up and down my steps where

553
00:51:45.880 --> 00:51:50.840
I live across stairs. I maybe try and walk up

554
00:51:50.880 --> 00:51:55.880
and down start off, maybe doing it twice, and then

555
00:51:56.039 --> 00:51:59.320
work it up. So I'm doing walking up and down

556
00:51:59.320 --> 00:52:01.960
maybe one hundred times a day, like in one go,

557
00:52:03.199 --> 00:52:07.320
just as an exercise thing. But I don't know. I'm

558
00:52:07.360 --> 00:52:17.800
not sure. I've started doing press ups again and doing

559
00:52:17.880 --> 00:52:25.239
some exercise with my weights and doing leg raises in

560
00:52:25.320 --> 00:52:29.880
bed for the stomach. So I'm kind of because I

561
00:52:29.960 --> 00:52:33.000
took a little bit of a break for probably two weeks. Well,

562
00:52:33.000 --> 00:52:39.239
I wasn't really doing much exercise at all, not even

563
00:52:38.480 --> 00:52:48.519
the weights, not crouching what do they call it crouching,

564
00:52:49.719 --> 00:52:51.199
I don't know. Whatever it is that I do for

565
00:52:51.280 --> 00:52:56.559
my lower back while I hold weights, I've not done

566
00:52:56.599 --> 00:53:00.880
that for a while. I did it the other day,

567
00:53:00.960 --> 00:53:04.960
but I've not done it regularly every day like like

568
00:53:05.119 --> 00:53:09.800
I used to. And part of the reason for that

569
00:53:09.960 --> 00:53:17.239
is because at the weekend I readjusted my bedroom, not

570
00:53:17.559 --> 00:53:22.119
purposefully thinking, oh, I'm going to readjust my bedroom. I

571
00:53:22.119 --> 00:53:26.840
didn't wake up that morning on Saturday, thinking, oh, you

572
00:53:27.079 --> 00:53:30.000
jumped out of bed with full excitement. I'm going to

573
00:53:30.079 --> 00:53:32.199
move my chair to a different part of the room.

574
00:53:32.559 --> 00:53:37.320
I don't mean that. It's just I was getting the

575
00:53:37.440 --> 00:53:42.800
microphones out of the storage room, setting them up. So

576
00:53:42.800 --> 00:53:45.480
I got one here on my chair, near my chair,

577
00:53:46.360 --> 00:53:50.000
attached to a table. I got one next to my bed.

578
00:53:50.559 --> 00:53:54.320
I had one attached so I can make videos. But

579
00:53:55.159 --> 00:53:58.719
I don't think I can do videos anymore. I just

580
00:53:59.440 --> 00:54:04.880
I prefer audio. It's an old saying. You know, some

581
00:54:04.920 --> 00:54:07.880
people have got they've got a face for radio, and

582
00:54:07.920 --> 00:54:16.400
I'm one of them. I think it's possibly a disappointment

583
00:54:17.280 --> 00:54:20.960
if someone sees me like they might be listening to

584
00:54:21.000 --> 00:54:23.880
me for a long time. Some people will be listening

585
00:54:23.920 --> 00:54:28.519
to me for years and then they they get curious

586
00:54:28.559 --> 00:54:30.719
and they go on to the YouTube channel. They see

587
00:54:30.760 --> 00:54:40.119
me and think, well, now that's ruined. That's ruined everything.

588
00:54:41.360 --> 00:54:46.599
So you know, it's not like I'm not hiding myself.

589
00:54:48.119 --> 00:54:57.079
But plus, I think with video, I've never liked pictures.

590
00:54:57.599 --> 00:55:00.440
I'm not. I don't mean I've never liked the picture

591
00:55:00.480 --> 00:55:03.679
I've ever seen ever. I mean I've never really enjoyed

592
00:55:03.679 --> 00:55:13.760
a picture of me because I don't think photographs necessarily

593
00:55:15.079 --> 00:55:20.480
show the person, but a video. Can you know, your

594
00:55:20.480 --> 00:55:27.079
personality can show in a video. You don't smile and frowning,

595
00:55:28.159 --> 00:55:34.320
facial expressions, the voice, all that stuff movement, which I

596
00:55:34.320 --> 00:55:37.880
guess is part of the whole video process, isn't it movement?

597
00:55:40.239 --> 00:55:45.920
But I didn't. I feel I've done that now I've

598
00:55:45.920 --> 00:55:52.079
been there. Did I spent years doing videos and there's

599
00:55:52.119 --> 00:55:54.719
a little part of me thinking I just wish that.

600
00:55:59.719 --> 00:56:06.719
I just don't really want to make videos. I prefer audio.

601
00:56:07.639 --> 00:56:11.360
This is more relaxing for me. This is where I

602
00:56:11.360 --> 00:56:14.760
can really just be myself because if I've got a

603
00:56:14.840 --> 00:56:19.599
video camera there, I've got a tendency of I don't

604
00:56:19.639 --> 00:56:25.920
know if it's so much showing off, but I definitely

605
00:56:26.039 --> 00:56:31.960
feel very self conscious, feel very self conscious. At no

606
00:56:32.119 --> 00:56:34.840
point do I forget that the camera's pointing at me

607
00:56:36.639 --> 00:56:41.039
with the microphone. This is almost the most natural thing

608
00:56:41.079 --> 00:56:45.760
in the world for me to just talking too microphone.

609
00:56:46.039 --> 00:56:52.440
It's there's no effort. I think that comes across that

610
00:56:52.639 --> 00:56:55.800
clearly is no effort. That's why it's though it's so awful,

611
00:56:56.199 --> 00:57:06.239
because no energy, no effort planning. It's real. This is

612
00:57:06.360 --> 00:57:15.159
just me, and I don't necessarily think that that happens

613
00:57:15.280 --> 00:57:20.360
as much on a video because I just I feel

614
00:57:20.400 --> 00:57:26.880
self conscious. I mean, I didn't enjoy it when I

615
00:57:26.920 --> 00:57:34.599
had hair, but now now that my hair's kind of

616
00:57:35.599 --> 00:57:40.400
it's really weird. Like I got a bald patch of

617
00:57:40.440 --> 00:57:47.079
the back and my hairs. I trimmed my hair so

618
00:57:47.159 --> 00:57:55.119
it was stuck a a crooker. I guess I can

619
00:57:55.280 --> 00:57:59.199
see in the mirror that the gap between the hairs

620
00:57:59.320 --> 00:58:03.079
is growing, and some of those hairs that are growing

621
00:58:03.159 --> 00:58:07.440
back are not the same strength for thickness that they

622
00:58:07.559 --> 00:58:19.760
used to be. And I'm thinking that possibly the next

623
00:58:19.760 --> 00:58:27.840
ten years I might Okay, well I'll be bored. And

624
00:58:27.960 --> 00:58:31.400
that's it really. I showed a picture to Jack Tpt

625
00:58:33.400 --> 00:58:36.360
to create an image for me, and I said, oh,

626
00:58:36.639 --> 00:58:43.199
make an image of Venny and me Venix on the

627
00:58:43.280 --> 00:58:49.480
bed making a podcast or something and I'm sleeping on

628
00:58:49.519 --> 00:58:53.519
a dog bed on the floor. So I did that

629
00:58:54.920 --> 00:59:03.079
and they said, oh, I said what Jack Russell read

630
00:59:03.159 --> 00:59:06.199
Jack Russell when they did that, and I posted a

631
00:59:06.239 --> 00:59:09.440
picture of him, so they changed it to like a

632
00:59:09.559 --> 00:59:14.719
lifelike picture of Vinnie. I think he was holding a board.

633
00:59:14.840 --> 00:59:17.800
We said I had a Q and a Friday or

634
00:59:17.840 --> 00:59:25.800
whatever it was. And then I said, can you make

635
00:59:26.000 --> 00:59:31.599
my image as well? So they said, upload the picture

636
00:59:31.639 --> 00:59:34.800
of you, So I did. It just showed someone with

637
00:59:34.880 --> 00:59:40.840
a massive ballpatch and just her hair growing on the side,

638
00:59:41.599 --> 00:59:47.000
like that's not why. I looked like, not yet. It

639
00:59:47.679 --> 00:59:51.960
possibly will be, but it won't because I will shape

640
00:59:51.960 --> 00:59:57.559
my hair. I will. That's that's so annoying though, because

641
00:59:57.679 --> 01:00:01.239
I'm pretty sure that the side my hair and the

642
01:00:01.280 --> 01:00:06.599
back of my hair is so thick and curly, but

643
01:00:06.840 --> 01:00:10.440
so thick that it would never board. I don't think

644
01:00:10.440 --> 01:00:12.800
I'm ever going to be that. That will always be

645
01:00:12.920 --> 01:00:20.360
thick hair and on the side as well, but not

646
01:00:20.440 --> 01:00:25.199
so much in the middle. It is going back to Moses.

647
01:00:25.239 --> 01:00:28.039
It's a little bit like the parting of the Red Sea.

648
01:00:28.599 --> 01:00:31.800
It started at the back and it's just slowly move

649
01:00:31.880 --> 01:00:38.519
in to the front. It's weird Moses and bridges. That

650
01:00:38.639 --> 01:00:44.320
seems to be the topic of the day. I did

651
01:00:44.320 --> 01:00:45.000
another video.

652
01:00:45.159 --> 01:00:45.679
I never a.

653
01:00:47.480 --> 01:00:54.519
Podcast image and they said, I said, do you want

654
01:00:54.559 --> 01:00:57.000
to I want to put in an image of me.

655
01:00:58.440 --> 01:01:01.360
They said, describe yourself. I said, old, a fifty four

656
01:01:01.440 --> 01:01:06.760
year old man. I looked about ninety when they put

657
01:01:06.760 --> 01:01:11.039
this picture of me like it's old, old looking person.

658
01:01:11.599 --> 01:01:14.719
I do not look like that, or maybe I do.

659
01:01:14.920 --> 01:01:18.239
I don't to me, but I do need to have

660
01:01:18.360 --> 01:01:21.360
my eyes checked to be fair. I'm saving up for

661
01:01:21.400 --> 01:01:24.480
an eye test and to get what the eye test

662
01:01:24.599 --> 01:01:29.760
is free, but the glasses on. So I think I

663
01:01:29.840 --> 01:01:37.119
get the lenses for free, but I have to pay

664
01:01:37.320 --> 01:01:41.880
for to have the gloss, you know, the protection on them,

665
01:01:42.039 --> 01:01:45.519
and also the act light so they go dark in

666
01:01:45.559 --> 01:01:48.239
the sun. So I have to pay for that, and

667
01:01:48.320 --> 01:01:50.199
I have to I think I get a discount on

668
01:01:50.239 --> 01:01:54.599
the frames, or I think I can get a free frame,

669
01:01:54.639 --> 01:01:59.800
but they're like NHS. There's nothing wrong with NHS, but

670
01:02:00.800 --> 01:02:03.719
I kind of think I don't care what the frame

671
01:02:03.800 --> 01:02:08.519
looks like if they're ever reading, because I'm not going

672
01:02:08.599 --> 01:02:13.960
to be reading outside pretty much. I'm going to read

673
01:02:14.039 --> 01:02:16.639
here and I'm looking forward to getting my classes so

674
01:02:16.719 --> 01:02:19.760
i can get back to reading again. I just can't

675
01:02:19.760 --> 01:02:26.239
do it at the moment, not with these. So it's

676
01:02:26.280 --> 01:02:31.039
going to cost me a few hundred pounds two because

677
01:02:31.039 --> 01:02:34.840
I'm gonna have to get two different probably three different frames,

678
01:02:35.800 --> 01:02:41.199
one for distance you know, normal day to day, one

679
01:02:41.239 --> 01:02:45.960
for reading, and one for using I'm on a computer.

680
01:02:47.960 --> 01:02:50.440
I need to start like protecting my eyes a bit more,

681
01:02:51.599 --> 01:03:01.960
and I've noticed that I can't. I can't spend as

682
01:03:02.039 --> 01:03:04.800
much time looking at the computer screen as I used

683
01:03:04.800 --> 01:03:11.199
to do, which is I mean, it's not a terrible thing, really,

684
01:03:11.239 --> 01:03:16.159
because I don't really want to be spending all day

685
01:03:16.199 --> 01:03:19.039
looking at a computer screen. But at the same time,

686
01:03:20.800 --> 01:03:27.440
it is limiting and i'd at least like to have

687
01:03:27.480 --> 01:03:32.599
the option, but at the same time by looking after

688
01:03:32.679 --> 01:03:40.079
my eyes. So as soon as I've saved up enough,

689
01:03:40.320 --> 01:03:49.119
I'm gonna get an appointment go to the opticians. I'm

690
01:03:49.159 --> 01:03:57.480
thinking about asking for because I saw somewhere that there's

691
01:03:57.599 --> 01:04:02.639
certain lenses that I quite good for people bipolar. Now,

692
01:04:02.880 --> 01:04:09.760
I might have dreamt it, but it's not something I

693
01:04:09.760 --> 01:04:14.239
would normally dream about. But then I don't remember everything

694
01:04:14.239 --> 01:04:18.800
I dream about. In fact, I can't remember the last

695
01:04:18.800 --> 01:04:24.280
time I had a dream. I ever dream I don't

696
01:04:24.320 --> 01:04:30.119
have dreamt. I just don't remember exactly what I dreamt about.

697
01:04:32.960 --> 01:04:43.000
And yeah, wow, I think I had a dream the

698
01:04:43.039 --> 01:04:44.159
other day, and I just.

699
01:04:48.199 --> 01:04:49.880
I can't remember what it was.

700
01:04:53.519 --> 01:04:54.119
I don't know.

701
01:04:58.920 --> 01:05:04.119
I was I talking about dreaming while I was I

702
01:05:04.159 --> 01:05:12.320
talking about dreaming oh, bipolar lenses. I know that there's

703
01:05:12.440 --> 01:05:20.159
some lenses to people with some conditions, not just visual conditions,

704
01:05:20.920 --> 01:05:27.440
where like different colored tinted glasses that color all the time,

705
01:05:27.519 --> 01:05:31.679
not just in the sun, but mind tint dark in

706
01:05:31.760 --> 01:05:35.559
the sun. Apparently people can see where I'm looking though,

707
01:05:35.599 --> 01:05:38.800
which came as a bit of a surprise after ten

708
01:05:38.880 --> 01:05:40.000
years of thinking.

709
01:05:39.719 --> 01:05:40.039
I was.

710
01:05:43.000 --> 01:05:50.119
My eyeballs at freedom. So now before I go to

711
01:05:50.199 --> 01:05:52.119
the opticians, I'm going to do a bit of research.

712
01:05:53.360 --> 01:06:00.440
If there's something that can help me in some way,

713
01:06:00.119 --> 01:06:05.679
If looking through a different colored lens could be useful,

714
01:06:05.800 --> 01:06:16.679
then it's worth exploring. There's someone to do list, Yeah,

715
01:06:16.960 --> 01:06:20.000
because I remember one of the beg's I think it

716
01:06:20.159 --> 01:06:26.400
was the maybe two of them, but one of them matter.

717
01:06:27.360 --> 01:06:32.519
I think like a yellow tilted or tinted glasses. And

718
01:06:32.599 --> 01:06:35.280
I used to know someone. I think she was a customer,

719
01:06:36.480 --> 01:06:42.039
or i'd said when I worked in the Evolution shop

720
01:06:42.400 --> 01:06:48.280
in Ipswich. She I think she worked next door in

721
01:06:48.480 --> 01:06:55.760
Snappy Snaps, which was this camera processing place or picture

722
01:06:55.840 --> 01:07:02.840
processing and she had I think yellow lenses or blue lenses,

723
01:07:04.079 --> 01:07:10.639
and said I asked her about it, and she said

724
01:07:10.639 --> 01:07:16.360
it was something to do with I'm pretty sure she

725
01:07:16.480 --> 01:07:25.440
said autism. Or I'm also I have a memory of

726
01:07:25.559 --> 01:07:32.760
hearing that lenses can help with ADHD, But again I'm

727
01:07:32.760 --> 01:07:36.920
not sure right just these are like faint memories that

728
01:07:37.079 --> 01:07:48.880
maybe complete fabrications. But I think anything really is worth

729
01:07:48.920 --> 01:07:56.360
for try, isn't it. It's now to lose. I might

730
01:07:56.400 --> 01:08:04.239
get some funny looks, what I think is maybe going forward.

731
01:08:05.079 --> 01:08:08.840
I'll ask them if I can get lenses that are

732
01:08:08.960 --> 01:08:19.159
always dark all the time, like Royal Obison. Did you

733
01:08:19.239 --> 01:08:22.840
know Roy Robison didn't wear those classes because he had

734
01:08:22.840 --> 01:08:28.760
anything wrong with his eyes. It's true he had an

735
01:08:28.800 --> 01:08:32.399
eye injury, or he had a style or something like that.

736
01:08:33.000 --> 01:08:35.680
So he wore those classes when he was on stage

737
01:08:36.279 --> 01:08:40.800
because his eye was all gammy. And this might be

738
01:08:40.840 --> 01:08:43.720
a lie, but this is my memory of it. And

739
01:08:43.760 --> 01:08:48.840
he wore his classes on stage to perform Miss Roy Robison,

740
01:08:48.960 --> 01:08:53.680
the singer, and he liked them so much he decided

741
01:08:53.720 --> 01:08:56.199
to spend the rest of his career wearing those classes,

742
01:08:57.159 --> 01:09:04.840
those big, thick classes dark, which looked like he had

743
01:09:06.119 --> 01:09:16.399
serious sight issues, but apparently he didn't. I have seen

744
01:09:16.439 --> 01:09:23.439
people wear those type of classes that were very had

745
01:09:24.479 --> 01:09:33.199
impaired sight, But I was thinking maybe I could get

746
01:09:33.279 --> 01:09:37.479
some not I don't want them like that. But just

747
01:09:38.399 --> 01:09:45.840
the thing is, I think some people look they think

748
01:09:45.880 --> 01:09:48.880
it's weird if you walk around in the winter wearing sunglasses.

749
01:09:50.600 --> 01:09:55.159
And I've had a couple of people say why you

750
01:09:55.199 --> 01:09:56.119
were in sunshines.

751
01:09:56.159 --> 01:09:56.880
It's like, I'm not.

752
01:09:57.079 --> 01:10:07.359
These are my normal classes. But these don't look like

753
01:10:07.479 --> 01:10:11.399
sunshades because there's a different frame. These look like glasses,

754
01:10:12.800 --> 01:10:17.760
because sunshades are normally a bit more, are more stylish

755
01:10:17.840 --> 01:10:20.560
and more. There's a different kind of a frame I

756
01:10:20.600 --> 01:10:30.199
think with sunshades. Although I I kind of do like

757
01:10:32.199 --> 01:10:43.279
you remember the like the Blues Brothers, that kind of sunshades. Yeah,

758
01:10:43.319 --> 01:10:46.319
maybe I look, I'll look into that. Maybe that's what

759
01:10:46.359 --> 01:10:50.319
I'll do, just something to kind of protect my eyes

760
01:10:50.359 --> 01:10:57.560
from the sun, from the light. I'll see what the

761
01:10:57.560 --> 01:11:01.920
optician says. But before that, do a little bit of

762
01:11:02.000 --> 01:11:06.279
research on mine, maybe watch a few YouTube videos and

763
01:11:06.680 --> 01:11:11.720
foind out what's about, and perhaps to a bit of

764
01:11:11.800 --> 01:11:18.520
research into the science behind it and see what studies

765
01:11:18.560 --> 01:11:25.439
are showing, because I'll figure it if anything that can

766
01:11:25.479 --> 01:11:37.199
help is brilliant. Although in the future, the smart classes

767
01:11:37.239 --> 01:11:45.159
will be the norm, and I'm interested in that I

768
01:11:45.199 --> 01:11:49.520
do like the idea of wearing smart glasses and being

769
01:11:49.560 --> 01:11:52.720
able to talk to them. I like the idea of

770
01:11:52.800 --> 01:11:57.479
being able to make a podcast while I'm just walking around.

771
01:12:00.039 --> 01:12:04.239
Probably I probably have. I don't know how could microphone

772
01:12:04.279 --> 01:12:11.479
would be on the glasses. But audio is improving all

773
01:12:11.520 --> 01:12:15.560
the time, and the ability to improve audio as well

774
01:12:16.520 --> 01:12:22.279
after recording is technologies is improving all the time. So

775
01:12:22.359 --> 01:12:28.079
it's there's so much more that can be done. So

776
01:12:28.960 --> 01:12:31.279
I'm just I'll see what happens, but I'm going to

777
01:12:31.359 --> 01:12:38.880
look into it. My question is what was I talking

778
01:12:38.880 --> 01:12:43.359
about when I very first started this recording, Because it

779
01:12:43.479 --> 01:12:48.680
wasn't bridges, it wasn't glasses. What was it. I don't know.

780
01:12:48.880 --> 01:12:55.880
I can't remember. I cannot remember old motor bikes in

781
01:12:55.920 --> 01:13:02.119
the garden. That's it. So I got no idea how

782
01:13:02.119 --> 01:13:05.359
long I've been talking. It might be twenty minutes, it

783
01:13:05.479 --> 01:13:08.800
might be an hour. I don't know, but I'm going

784
01:13:08.880 --> 01:13:13.600
to go, So thank you for listening. Remember to be

785
01:13:13.800 --> 01:13:18.319
kind to yourself because you do deserve to be happy

786
01:13:18.720 --> 01:13:23.399
and be gentle with yourself. You deserve to feel safe,

787
01:13:25.760 --> 01:13:29.039
lots of love. Bye.

788
01:13:35.600 --> 01:13:50.199
Relax in a more deep and meaningful way, maybe in

789
01:13:50.239 --> 01:13:55.800
a way that can not just allow you to feel

790
01:13:57.119 --> 01:14:07.720
calm now and throughout the time we spend together here,

791
01:14:08.399 --> 01:14:14.119
not just relaxed at the end of the recording when

792
01:14:14.119 --> 01:14:20.800
it's finished and you can enjoy that sense of comfort

793
01:14:20.960 --> 01:14:35.880
and peace, but also I think it would be nice

794
01:14:36.000 --> 01:14:55.800
to have those feelings of relaxation continue for longer after

795
01:14:55.880 --> 01:15:06.439
the recording has ended, so that you can still benefit

796
01:15:09.319 --> 01:15:16.600
from listening to my voice, maybe in a few hours time,

797
01:15:18.520 --> 01:15:32.000
perhaps tomorrow, and then by listening regularly, especially if you

798
01:15:32.159 --> 01:15:36.840
find like some people do and myself as well. I

799
01:15:36.960 --> 01:15:43.720
sometimes I find one particular recording that really resonates with me,

800
01:15:48.079 --> 01:15:50.439
and I just listen to it over and over again

801
01:15:52.720 --> 01:16:05.760
every morning, every evening. There was this recording from We're

802
01:16:05.760 --> 01:16:11.520
going back to about nineteen ninety nine. It wasn't hypnosis,

803
01:16:11.560 --> 01:16:16.880
but it was a guided visualizations. It kind of was hypnosis, really,

804
01:16:19.359 --> 01:16:24.560
and I managed to find it again and it still

805
01:16:24.640 --> 01:16:30.239
has the same effect on me. And part of it

806
01:16:30.399 --> 01:16:45.119
was the person's voice relaxed me. She just felt so peaceful,

807
01:16:47.239 --> 01:16:53.720
and I'd look forward to listening to her in the

808
01:16:53.800 --> 01:17:04.520
morning and in the evening. And I knew before even

809
01:17:05.239 --> 01:17:12.560
pressing the play button that as soon as I've done that,

810
01:17:13.399 --> 01:17:16.840
pressed the play button. This is in the days of

811
01:17:21.960 --> 01:17:31.119
CD players, press the play button. If that it might

812
01:17:31.119 --> 01:17:35.439
have even been a tape tape recorder. I'd lie down

813
01:17:35.479 --> 01:17:48.079
on the bed and then even without necessarily listening to

814
01:17:48.279 --> 01:18:01.439
her words because I had to memorized. Really, it was

815
01:18:01.439 --> 01:18:12.119
as if my body knew exactly what to do, and

816
01:18:12.239 --> 01:18:34.039
the muscles just almost went into automatic relaxation, and I

817
01:18:34.079 --> 01:18:48.039
remember my mind would slow down. Now. Now, I was

818
01:18:48.239 --> 01:18:55.399
listening to this recording in the early days of learning hypnosis,

819
01:18:58.039 --> 01:19:05.880
and long before I ever made any videos or audio

820
01:19:05.920 --> 01:19:10.720
recordings myself, because I didn't start doing that till two

821
01:19:10.720 --> 01:19:26.760
thousand and six. But I knew, I knew how helpful

822
01:19:28.640 --> 01:19:40.199
I found being able to just let go, to have

823
01:19:40.359 --> 01:19:53.239
that trust in the person that I'm listening to, knowing

824
01:19:53.319 --> 01:20:01.079
that it's going to be just as relaxing, if if

825
01:20:01.119 --> 01:20:10.479
not more so. Each time you hear my voice, you

826
01:20:10.560 --> 01:20:22.199
may feel the same. Some people have been listening to

827
01:20:22.279 --> 01:20:36.199
me for over a decade, maybe not solidly, obviously not

828
01:20:36.199 --> 01:20:42.520
twenty four hours a day, but maybe people come back.

829
01:20:44.359 --> 01:20:59.399
Some people maybe listen every day. That's something that I

830
01:20:59.479 --> 01:21:15.479
do which you may not realize By listening is when

831
01:21:15.760 --> 01:21:31.279
I record these recordings. Now. For example, I also am

832
01:21:31.520 --> 01:21:45.279
affected by the words that I say. So if I

833
01:21:45.319 --> 01:21:52.680
set you focus on your feet, notice your feet relaxing,

834
01:21:56.159 --> 01:22:04.079
I will be focusing on my feet. I will be

835
01:22:04.199 --> 01:22:22.279
noticing my feet relaxing. If I said, focus on your hands,

836
01:22:25.079 --> 01:22:34.600
and maybe notice the difference between each hand, Perhaps notice

837
01:22:34.720 --> 01:22:40.800
the air in the room, the temperature of the room.

838
01:22:42.640 --> 01:22:53.039
On the backs of your hands. You may start to

839
01:22:53.600 --> 01:23:01.680
notice what almost feels like a very light breeze, even

840
01:23:01.720 --> 01:23:05.960
though there may not be any type of breeze at

841
01:23:06.000 --> 01:23:19.000
all where you are right now. And as you become

842
01:23:19.640 --> 01:23:34.039
aware of your hands, I'm also aware of how relaxed

843
01:23:34.319 --> 01:23:40.279
my hands our feeling.

844
01:23:41.720 --> 01:23:57.279
Now, and when.

845
01:23:57.159 --> 01:24:02.520
It comes to partend to be drifting off to sleep,

846
01:24:03.640 --> 01:24:16.199
which may be the reason you're listening. I also feel

847
01:24:16.359 --> 01:24:30.600
drowsy when I make these recordings. I also notice my

848
01:24:30.880 --> 01:24:47.199
mind drifting. In fact, at times I've actually fallen asleep

849
01:24:52.800 --> 01:25:07.279
without even noticing, and then I carry I'm talking. It's

850
01:25:07.359 --> 01:25:16.359
only when I listen back to do the editing I

851
01:25:16.479 --> 01:25:25.760
hear snoring and I think I don't remember snoring. I

852
01:25:25.800 --> 01:25:32.520
remember talking. I was snoring. Was a pick turned up,

853
01:25:36.520 --> 01:25:43.920
that's why I sound like when I snare and I

854
01:25:43.960 --> 01:25:57.439
get really into the whole experience, I don't know how

855
01:25:57.560 --> 01:26:10.159
you feel, how relaxed you feel in your feet, how

856
01:26:10.279 --> 01:26:35.720
relaxed you feel in your hands. I have noticed more

857
01:26:35.840 --> 01:26:52.479
and more that the more relaxed, deeper level of comfort

858
01:26:54.439 --> 01:27:09.600
you feel, the easier your breathing becomes. It's almost like

859
01:27:12.399 --> 01:27:30.439
that additional muscle relaxation. So this allows you to breathe

860
01:27:30.800 --> 01:27:56.680
easier without necessarily focusing on your breath, however, being able

861
01:27:56.800 --> 01:28:26.119
to notice the ease in which you breathe so naturally.

862
01:28:40.760 --> 01:29:23.479
You breathe so very easily and smoothly. Whenever I imagine my

863
01:29:23.720 --> 01:29:40.079
breathing improving, when I've got my eyes closed, I tend

864
01:29:40.159 --> 01:30:00.680
to visualize a beautiful field with trees and flowers producing

865
01:30:00.800 --> 01:30:34.840
all that life giving oxygen. It feels nice too, if

866
01:30:34.960 --> 01:31:05.640
nothing else, just taking some time away from everything, enjoying

867
01:31:11.920 --> 01:32:03.119
that feeling of peace serenity with a joyful heart. Time

868
01:32:03.560 --> 01:32:34.239
seems to just drip by, so very slowly, relaxed, so

869
01:32:34.800 --> 01:33:14.239
deeply peaceful, completely unattached to any thoughts whatsoever in this moment,

870
01:33:30.920 --> 01:34:27.039
completely free, noticin that your mind has slowed down, slowed

871
01:34:27.159 --> 01:35:13.479
down because nothing really requires your attention. You can enjoy

872
01:35:18.159 --> 01:35:30.239
the physical sensations of allowing the stress to rip out

873
01:35:30.279 --> 01:35:49.840
of your body, to appear out of every part of

874
01:35:49.920 --> 01:36:15.640
your body, being released from your brain in your mind,

875
01:36:33.600 --> 01:37:17.880
slowly but surely, the muscles in your legs remass really,

876
01:37:22.920 --> 01:38:05.319
so very deeply, so deeply, and feelings, the pleasant feelings

877
01:38:05.359 --> 01:38:29.640
in your arms and shoulders, deepening each part of your

878
01:38:29.680 --> 01:39:11.600
body further and deeper and deeper. Noticine, the feelings in

879
01:39:11.640 --> 01:39:38.039
the back of your neck, the feelings in your wrists,

880
01:40:11.079 --> 01:40:36.840
muscles in front of your body. I all say, feeling

881
01:40:41.600 --> 01:41:17.359
peaceful deeply, there's a sense of peace spreads through your

882
01:41:17.640 --> 01:42:07.199
very core. Even when you focus on your mind, her

883
01:42:07.279 --> 01:43:20.720
mind becomes be and slowerven deeper, relaxing, a very slow

884
01:43:38.079 --> 01:44:35.159
Your stomach PA's fin's stomach, your back. Notice, Notice how

885
01:44:35.359 --> 01:44:53.359
relaxed you'd never feel in the hole of your back.

886
01:45:18.560 --> 01:45:27.680
In spy from your brain all the way down the

887
01:45:27.720 --> 01:45:38.439
middle of your back, sending and receiving millions of messages

888
01:45:39.119 --> 01:46:08.279
every day, decomfort increasing deeply ries.

889
01:46:38.600 --> 01:46:38.960
You me.

890
01:47:05.119 --> 01:47:18.439
Legs, spreading those signals down a spine or cord into

891
01:47:18.479 --> 01:47:40.520
air every part of your body, your shins and your calf, muscles,

892
01:48:05.680 --> 01:48:39.399

01:48:56.479 --> 01:48:58.039

01:56:34.600 --> 01:57:09.880
different parts of your body, just to notice you forelhead

01:57:10.199 --> 01:58:12.000

Relaxed.

910
02:06:39.920 --> 02:06:43.159
Your body feels almost.

911
02:06:44.279 --> 02:07:13.279
Invisible, so very relaxed, I think, peaceful, so.

912
02:07:20.920 --> 02:07:38.399
Peace relax.

913
02:07:44.840 --> 02:07:45.359
Like a.

914
02:08:01.000 --> 02:08:08.279
Russ.

915
02:08:20.800 --> 02:08:27.079
And you could start to notice that you are feeling

916
02:08:27.439 --> 02:08:38.680
more relaxed, even though I've not purposely focused your mind

917
02:08:39.640 --> 02:08:47.199
upon that sense of physical comfort that is growing within

918
02:08:47.319 --> 02:08:56.479
you throughout your body, and your mind starts to slow down,

919
02:09:01.399 --> 02:09:08.600
and that could be almost in recognition of I guess

920
02:09:09.000 --> 02:09:21.520
my speech not being particularly fast, and things just generally

921
02:09:23.159 --> 02:09:34.199
feel calmer. Just by listening to my voice, you give

922
02:09:34.239 --> 02:09:41.159
yourself an opportunity to take a break from the day,

923
02:09:43.279 --> 02:09:50.800
take a break from your life as it is, and

924
02:09:50.960 --> 02:09:58.720
to give yourself a rest, giving yourself permission to take

925
02:09:58.800 --> 02:10:04.359
some time off, and to allow your body to relax

926
02:10:06.039 --> 02:10:14.000
and allow your mind to slow down, which in turn

927
02:10:16.600 --> 02:10:21.640
releases the tension and he stresses that you had in

928
02:10:21.680 --> 02:10:31.520
your body. It's almost as if the parts of your

929
02:10:31.560 --> 02:10:43.600
body just open up, allowing the negativity out and at

930
02:10:43.600 --> 02:10:52.560
the same time replacing that negativity with positive heathing energy,

931
02:10:54.960 --> 02:10:59.600
which then fills your body up and your mind to

932
02:11:01.199 --> 02:11:19.640
also starts to appreciate those feelings of increasing confidence, an

933
02:11:19.720 --> 02:11:36.800
almost uplifting feeling, positive healing, an energy that spreads through

934
02:11:36.840 --> 02:11:47.560
your body like a wave of comfort. And all this

935
02:11:47.840 --> 02:11:59.840
comes from just allowing yourself a few minutes, maybe half

936
02:12:00.000 --> 02:12:03.840
an hour, however long you want it to be, to

937
02:12:04.119 --> 02:12:18.000
just rest and allow your mind and your body to

938
02:12:18.079 --> 02:12:34.920
almost reset itself to the settings of comfort and relaxation, calmness,

939
02:12:38.960 --> 02:12:48.359
which allows more room for feelings of pleasure and happiness

940
02:12:52.359 --> 02:13:01.439
to move around your body and into your mind, almost

941
02:13:01.960 --> 02:13:06.600
as if your mind and your body are sinking together,

942
02:13:10.840 --> 02:13:20.880
almost mirroring each other with that growing positivity and calmness,

943
02:13:25.600 --> 02:13:32.840
And it feels nice. It really does feel nice to

944
02:13:33.000 --> 02:13:38.760
know that you are the one that has allowed yourself

945
02:13:42.159 --> 02:13:54.399
to feel more comfort and to experience more of this

946
02:13:56.159 --> 02:14:11.720
deep relaxation spreading throughout your body. And as I focus

947
02:14:12.880 --> 02:14:18.880
on each part of your body, you can notice that

948
02:14:18.880 --> 02:14:36.079
that part becomes even more relaxed just by focusing on it,

949
02:14:36.159 --> 02:14:49.800
becomes even more calm and comfortable just by focusing. And

950
02:14:49.880 --> 02:14:55.800
as I move down your body, starting at your head,

951
02:14:58.119 --> 02:15:04.840
the parts that you've already focused on will continue to

952
02:15:05.000 --> 02:15:12.640
relax deeply, and those parts that we not yet focused

953
02:15:12.680 --> 02:15:26.079
on or just automatically release any remaining tension in anticipation

954
02:15:26.439 --> 02:15:39.479
of even more comfort about to come. Now, I'm going

955
02:15:39.520 --> 02:15:46.479
to start by focusing on your forehead. Just being aware

956
02:15:46.760 --> 02:15:55.399
of the feelings of your forehead and any background sounds

957
02:15:57.159 --> 02:16:02.039
like mister Herbert the Pigeon, can just allow you to

958
02:16:02.199 --> 02:16:09.439
feel even more relaxed. Just means you're in the moment.

959
02:16:12.560 --> 02:16:19.600
This isn't this isn't a sterile environment. This is the world.

960
02:16:21.359 --> 02:16:27.439
I live in the countryside, so there's lots of nature

961
02:16:27.920 --> 02:16:38.440
sounds around. So as you focus on your forehead, just

962
02:16:38.639 --> 02:16:47.040
notice how it becomes even more relaxed as you focus

963
02:16:48.760 --> 02:16:56.840
only on my voice and that part of your body.

964
02:16:58.440 --> 02:17:08.159
Moving down to your eyes, Focusing on your eyes, noticing

965
02:17:09.200 --> 02:17:18.920
how your eyelids feel so heavy yet so light at

966
02:17:18.959 --> 02:17:25.399
the same time, and all the muscles around your eyes

967
02:17:25.639 --> 02:17:40.120
relaxing completely. Moving your focus down to your mouth, your lips,

968
02:17:40.559 --> 02:17:47.200
your tongue, your teeth, and your gums, the whole of

969
02:17:47.319 --> 02:18:02.319
your mouth relaxing, calm and loose. As you focus now

970
02:18:02.920 --> 02:18:09.799
on your jaw, not just the parts of your jaw

971
02:18:09.959 --> 02:18:14.680
near your mouth, your chin, but all the way up

972
02:18:15.360 --> 02:18:21.360
the size of your face to your ears, a hole

973
02:18:22.079 --> 02:18:49.239
of your jaw, feeding more relaxed and calm. Focusing on

974
02:18:49.280 --> 02:18:54.719
your neck, the front of your neck and your throat,

975
02:18:56.920 --> 02:19:07.680
relaxing and use and calm. The sides of your neck,

976
02:19:09.719 --> 02:19:18.799
the right and left side of your neck relax and lease.

977
02:19:22.600 --> 02:19:29.440
And calm.

978
02:19:29.760 --> 02:19:36.639
And now the back of your neck, focusing on the

979
02:19:36.680 --> 02:19:47.200
back of your neck, letting go of any tension that.

980
02:19:47.280 --> 02:19:56.200
May have been there before, and enjoying that sense of

981
02:19:57.159 --> 02:20:07.680
increasing come foot and release that you can experience in

982
02:20:07.760 --> 02:20:19.719
the back of your neck, moving down your back and

983
02:20:19.840 --> 02:20:24.680
moving either side of your spine right from the top

984
02:20:24.760 --> 02:20:30.319
of your back all the way down to the bottom

985
02:20:30.360 --> 02:20:47.399
of your back down to your lower back. And as

986
02:20:47.440 --> 02:20:54.879
you move up and down your spine, you can feel

987
02:20:55.000 --> 02:21:02.799
the muscles either side of your spine relaxing even more.

988
02:21:10.239 --> 02:21:17.040
And as those muscles relax, that sense of comfort starts

989
02:21:17.079 --> 02:21:27.239
to spread outwards from your spine into both sides of

990
02:21:27.319 --> 02:21:34.280
your back, the top of your back, the middle, and

991
02:21:34.440 --> 02:21:43.959
your lower back. And as you scan gently and slowly

992
02:21:45.159 --> 02:21:50.479
up and down your back, there's the muscles in the

993
02:21:50.559 --> 02:22:00.440
top of your back relax and become looser. The muscles

994
02:22:00.559 --> 02:22:06.200
in the middle of your back also seem to just

995
02:22:06.600 --> 02:22:21.120
almost divide from each other, separating and almost melting, and

996
02:22:21.319 --> 02:22:27.440
in your lower back there seems to be an extra

997
02:22:27.600 --> 02:22:43.639
special feeling of comfort. The spreads into your hips, so

998
02:22:43.879 --> 02:22:52.000
down your lower back, into your hips, into the area

999
02:22:52.040 --> 02:23:00.600
where your cosis are, and into your buttocks, and all

1000
02:23:00.639 --> 02:23:09.920
these muscles that spread from your lower back into your

1001
02:23:10.000 --> 02:23:23.360
hip area, start to melt, start to ready, let go,

1002
02:23:29.920 --> 02:23:36.719
don't even nowhere about to focus on your shoulders. Your

1003
02:23:36.879 --> 02:23:48.280
back and your spine will continue to let go, continue

1004
02:23:48.360 --> 02:24:03.280
to relax so calmly. And if you focus on your shoulders,

1005
02:24:05.000 --> 02:24:20.280
you may notice that they're already feeling really loose. They're

1006
02:24:20.440 --> 02:24:47.120
already feeding, calm and fearing. Those muscles then move from

1007
02:24:47.200 --> 02:25:02.719
your neck into your shoulders. Feel so soft and gentle,

1008
02:25:06.799 --> 02:25:08.600
so smooth.

1009
02:25:14.120 --> 02:25:26.559
And calm, and.

1010
02:25:26.520 --> 02:25:39.440
The feeling in your shoulders seems to spread deep into

1011
02:25:39.479 --> 02:25:49.920
your shoulders, that sense of relaxation, not just traveling deeply

1012
02:25:50.280 --> 02:26:07.239
into your muscles, but also relaxing the bones and moving

1013
02:26:07.360 --> 02:26:15.680
all the way to underneath your arms, relaxing a whole

1014
02:26:15.840 --> 02:26:20.840
area between the tops of your shoulders and underneath your

1015
02:26:21.000 --> 02:26:40.840
arms healing. You feel so relaxed and comfortable in your shoulders,

1016
02:26:44.319 --> 02:27:00.239
which sends that deep healing message into your arms. Yes,

1017
02:27:06.440 --> 02:27:11.520
and you may feel almost as if your arms are

1018
02:27:11.600 --> 02:27:23.280
not even there, because they're so relaxed, so deeply relaxed,

1019
02:27:30.440 --> 02:28:06.079
so so calm.

1020
02:27:51.079 --> 02:27:51.239
So.

1021
02:27:57.879 --> 02:28:13.000
Pose not feeling spreading all the way down your arms

1022
02:28:15.680 --> 02:28:46.239
two elbows, including your elbows circumforts spreads or away into wrists,

1023
02:28:48.600 --> 02:28:51.959
your forearments.

1024
02:28:50.680 --> 02:29:06.440
And your wrists so heavy, yet at the same time.

1025
02:29:13.719 --> 02:30:14.120
Sunlight and gentle Fred see now on your hands, my hands,

1026
02:30:20.440 --> 02:30:50.079
so peaceful in your hands, the sense of real peace.

1027
02:31:01.760 --> 02:31:14.879
It just seems to I feel so familiar when your

1028
02:31:15.040 --> 02:32:22.239
hands relax deeply el your thing is a thing is

1029
02:32:22.840 --> 02:33:26.360
sold less nothing, its tips, moving your attention to refront

1030
02:33:26.520 --> 02:34:48.319
to your body so comfortable, Moving your focus to your legs.

1031
02:35:16.319 --> 02:35:43.520
Let my souls in your thighs, your knees so relaxed,

1032
02:36:10.719 --> 02:38:30.760
a calf, muscles and just shames copuzily four feathing your feet, sir, peaceful,

1033
02:38:32.840 --> 02:39:29.040
so calm, so peaceful, so calm, so peaceful, cyclm so

1034
02:39:31.000 --> 02:40:03.399
peace for re sin, peace for scm. Allowing that deep

1035
02:40:03.559 --> 02:40:24.000
relaxation to spread your chest and your stomach, letting go

1036
02:40:25.840 --> 02:40:44.760
of everything. So I'm gonna start counting down now, from

1037
02:40:44.840 --> 02:40:53.520
twenty down to one. You can imagine in a way

1038
02:40:53.559 --> 02:40:59.680
it's like just walking down some steps and each step

1039
02:41:00.239 --> 02:41:06.239
twenty steps, and each step represents a level of comfort.

1040
02:41:09.680 --> 02:41:25.280
Each step represents a deepening of that comfort, and the

1041
02:41:25.319 --> 02:41:31.040
fervies you walk down those steps to a deeper and

1042
02:41:31.200 --> 02:41:59.760
more relaxed you feel. So starting with number twenty twenty,

1043
02:42:13.079 --> 02:48:20.799
nineteen eighteen, seventeen sixteen three four four see too well.

1044
02:49:19.639 --> 02:50:00.760
F h.

1045
02:50:30.440 --> 02:52:39.120
F nine eight.

1046
02:53:38.680 --> 02:54:43.840
Seven us.

1047
02:55:01.159 --> 02:55:31.159
A six.

1048
02:56:31.559 --> 03:01:29.440
Five four one.

1049
03:02:19.040 --> 03:02:36.000
And now and as you focus on your eyes, we're gonna

1050
03:02:36.040 --> 03:02:48.319
count down from ten douts one, focusing just on your eyes,

1051
03:02:52.040 --> 03:02:59.719
your eyelids, the muscles around your eyes, your eye walls

1052
03:02:59.760 --> 03:03:18.000
and cells, our whole area that makes up your eye.

1053
03:03:18.639 --> 03:03:26.200
And as we count down from ten down to one,

1054
03:03:26.440 --> 03:03:40.399
whilst focusing on your eyes, you'll become twice is relaxed

1055
03:03:42.639 --> 03:03:55.680
with each number counting down that you may find the

1056
03:03:55.840 --> 03:04:02.319
all you want to do is just drift off to sleep.

1057
03:04:05.280 --> 03:04:11.959
And if that's what you want, then just allow yourself

1058
03:04:12.040 --> 03:04:26.399
to do that. Now, focus in on your eyes. I'm

1059
03:04:26.479 --> 03:04:35.120
going to begin counting down from ten down to one

1060
03:04:36.239 --> 03:06:15.719
right now. Ten nine.

1061
03:05:46.440 --> 03:07:21.120
Eight seven.

1062
03:08:44.200 --> 03:09:56.120
Five four.

1063
03:10:50.079 --> 03:14:01.680
E three two one two. Count down ten to one

1064
03:14:01.920 --> 03:14:12.239
ten nine eight seven six.

1065
03:14:14.120 --> 03:14:24.120
Five four three two.

1066
03:14:26.000 --> 03:14:32.559
One.

1067
03:14:33.239 --> 03:14:36.159
And maybe that was a bit too quick in order

1068
03:14:36.200 --> 03:14:40.200
to relax. Maybe it's a bit too fast for you

1069
03:14:40.440 --> 03:14:50.200
to notice the calming of your body, maybe even a

1070
03:14:50.239 --> 03:14:54.079
little bit of pressure there, like you're counting down from

1071
03:14:54.120 --> 03:14:56.920
ten to one. Would you expect me to do? Man?

1072
03:14:57.719 --> 03:15:02.319
Expect me to stick gold floppy just because you're counting down,

1073
03:15:07.879 --> 03:15:12.120
I can try again, but this time I go this lower.

1074
03:15:14.200 --> 03:15:19.079
This time, as you focus on the whole of your

1075
03:15:19.120 --> 03:15:27.520
body before we focus on your legs. Just notice how

1076
03:15:27.559 --> 03:15:41.680
your body does start to feel more relaxed with every

1077
03:15:41.799 --> 03:16:23.639
number that I count down ten nine, eight, seven, six, five,

1078
03:16:34.000 --> 03:17:21.399
four three two one.

1079
03:17:22.399 --> 03:17:22.639
Wow.

1080
03:17:28.200 --> 03:17:33.920
And just notice how how you feel generally, how your

1081
03:17:33.959 --> 03:17:48.840
body feels. It's not necessarily even about counting down from

1082
03:17:48.879 --> 03:17:56.600
ten to one. It's that space that you have, that

1083
03:17:59.159 --> 03:18:20.079
space green being active physically or mentally to just sitting

1084
03:18:20.319 --> 03:18:25.159
or lying down, just being there, not doing anything, not

1085
03:18:25.440 --> 03:18:32.479
saying anything, nor deeding to think about anything. So it

1086
03:18:32.559 --> 03:18:36.159
opens up a space, you know, a bit of a space,

1087
03:18:37.079 --> 03:18:46.959
a gap. And the more I camped down from ten

1088
03:18:47.000 --> 03:18:54.479
to one, the bigger that gap becomes. So there's that

1089
03:18:54.600 --> 03:19:07.239
gap of calmness, of comfort, relax It's a nice feeling,

1090
03:19:12.760 --> 03:19:21.520
and it moves those stresses or discomforts physically or emotionally,

1091
03:19:22.159 --> 03:19:43.719
moves them away. Allows you to just slow down. Someone

1092
03:19:43.799 --> 03:19:47.000
to count again from ten down to one, and notice

1093
03:19:47.799 --> 03:19:56.719
that gap widening, the gap, And as it widens, it's

1094
03:19:56.760 --> 03:20:02.959
almost like the stress and attention falls into the gap

1095
03:20:16.399 --> 03:20:59.440
and gives you that distance, that space. Now ten nine, eight, seven, six,

1096
03:21:12.159 --> 03:22:24.719
five four three two.

1097
03:22:17.440 --> 03:22:24.840
One.

1098
03:22:29.600 --> 03:22:33.639
How does your body feel.

1099
03:22:35.559 --> 03:22:47.360
Now?

1100
03:22:48.479 --> 03:23:01.159
Can you notice that? Do you feeling calma, the feeling

1101
03:23:03.479 --> 03:23:30.920
more relaxed as we now focus on your legs, just

1102
03:23:31.040 --> 03:23:59.360
your legs. We're just gonna start with focusing on your thighs.

1103
03:24:07.239 --> 03:24:11.760
Of course, it's not the most exciting thing to be doing,

1104
03:24:12.319 --> 03:24:18.719
because I'm sure, like most of your body is not

1105
03:24:18.760 --> 03:24:31.040
a lot going on right now. Just focusing on the

1106
03:24:31.079 --> 03:24:37.159
whole of your thighs, the tops of your thighs, the

1107
03:24:37.440 --> 03:24:44.120
sides of your thighs, the bottoms of your thighs, your

1108
03:24:44.200 --> 03:24:49.520
outer thighs, and your inner thighs. Basically the whole of

1109
03:24:49.559 --> 03:24:57.399
your thigh that leads into your hip and it goes

1110
03:24:58.399 --> 03:25:11.920
down to your knee joints. Now, this is a big area.

1111
03:25:13.000 --> 03:25:17.959
It's a very heavy area. It's very strong, probably the

1112
03:25:18.079 --> 03:25:32.760
strongest muscles in your body or in your thighs. But

1113
03:25:32.799 --> 03:25:41.319
I don't think we perhaps give enough attention to our thighs.

1114
03:25:47.159 --> 03:25:57.959
Perhaps we don't acknowledge how important our thighs are to

1115
03:25:58.079 --> 03:26:18.799
our lives, how much they actually do for us all

1116
03:26:18.840 --> 03:26:19.680
for our lives.

1117
03:26:26.799 --> 03:26:28.399
And it may seem to.

1118
03:26:28.360 --> 03:26:33.559
Sound really weird. But I think that all of our

1119
03:26:33.600 --> 03:26:44.479
body parts, especially our thighs, need some TLC, a bit

1120
03:26:44.520 --> 03:27:03.440
of love shown, a bit of acknowledgement, thank you, gratitude

1121
03:27:04.239 --> 03:27:13.079
for what our thighs do for us. And I know

1122
03:27:13.200 --> 03:27:19.319
this may sound a bit strange. Maybe you think, why

1123
03:27:19.360 --> 03:27:22.079
am I sure? How I should be out in the

1124
03:27:22.120 --> 03:27:30.680
garden hugging a tree or something. Well, it's hard to

1125
03:27:30.719 --> 03:27:33.959
set a microphone up on a tree. That's why I'm

1126
03:27:33.959 --> 03:27:36.959
doing this indoors. Otherwise I would be outside hugging a tree.

1127
03:27:38.000 --> 03:27:46.799
Now I can't see the television from the tree. If

1128
03:27:46.840 --> 03:27:52.200
you move down to your knees gain such an important part.

1129
03:27:56.520 --> 03:28:01.680
And I think we don't necessarily I'll speak for myself here.

1130
03:28:04.079 --> 03:28:09.200
I don't necessarily appreciate all that my knees do for

1131
03:28:09.280 --> 03:28:15.760
me until I have a problem with my knee. It's occasionally,

1132
03:28:15.840 --> 03:28:20.840
if I ever, maybe i'll pash it or it's aching

1133
03:28:21.000 --> 03:28:27.440
for some reason. It's then that I realize how much

1134
03:28:27.479 --> 03:28:31.920
it does. You know, the benefit of being able to

1135
03:28:32.079 --> 03:28:41.319
use my legs without any kind of physical discomfort is

1136
03:28:42.120 --> 03:28:50.879
a beautiful thing that's possibly not appreciated until it's temporarily removed.

1137
03:28:51.959 --> 03:28:59.079
You know, that's comfort. But as you focus on your knees,

1138
03:29:01.120 --> 03:29:06.799
regardless of how your knees feel, you can have that

1139
03:29:07.040 --> 03:29:13.280
sense of gratitude and love to your knees for all

1140
03:29:13.319 --> 03:29:25.680
that they do for you, and you can still have

1141
03:29:25.719 --> 03:29:29.920
that attention on your thighs and maybe notice how your

1142
03:29:29.959 --> 03:29:41.879
thighs feel. Maybe you've noticed that they are relaxing more

1143
03:29:43.639 --> 03:29:55.399
deeply as you focus now on the bottoms of your legs,

1144
03:29:55.719 --> 03:30:01.200
your shins, and your calf muscles and the bones between

1145
03:30:01.319 --> 03:30:08.159
your knees and your feet, incorporating of course, your ankles

1146
03:30:10.440 --> 03:30:19.920
so important. You know, anyone that's had even like the

1147
03:30:19.959 --> 03:30:26.879
slightest sprain of an ankle knows how how much we

1148
03:30:26.920 --> 03:30:37.200
take our ankles for granted. And it's kind of strange

1149
03:30:37.239 --> 03:30:42.120
in a way when you think that. You know, logically,

1150
03:30:42.399 --> 03:30:45.520
our wrists are a lot thinner than the rest of

1151
03:30:45.520 --> 03:30:50.239
our arms, which is okay, it doesn't I can't see

1152
03:30:50.239 --> 03:30:53.799
any problem with that because we're just picking stuff up.

1153
03:30:55.319 --> 03:31:00.959
But our ankles so much thinner than the rest of

1154
03:31:01.000 --> 03:31:11.879
our legs, and from a physics perspective or logical even

1155
03:31:11.959 --> 03:31:17.639
it doesn't really make sense that all this weight would

1156
03:31:17.719 --> 03:31:24.959
ultimately be resting on your ankles then leading to your feet,

1157
03:31:29.520 --> 03:31:38.360
that thin area, thin bone. Yeah, it does so much

1158
03:31:38.440 --> 03:31:45.520
great work. Supports us, supports our body for a lifetime,

1159
03:31:50.280 --> 03:32:00.879
helps us to balance, helps you to get around, be mobile.

1160
03:32:07.159 --> 03:32:15.200
And there's the calf muscles. Of course, when I was younger,

1161
03:32:15.319 --> 03:32:18.680
I couldn't see the point in calf muscles. Didn't seem

1162
03:32:18.680 --> 03:32:23.840
to do anything. Okay, if I walked around on tiptoes,

1163
03:32:24.559 --> 03:32:28.440
then my calf muscles get some work. But of course

1164
03:32:28.479 --> 03:32:32.639
that's not true. The calf muscles are being used whenever

1165
03:32:32.680 --> 03:32:44.680
we use our legs and your shins there to protect

1166
03:32:46.600 --> 03:32:55.280
your lower legs, shaped in a way, almost as a

1167
03:32:55.319 --> 03:33:07.719
protector for the bone, leading of course to your ankles

1168
03:33:10.959 --> 03:33:17.600
and your feet. But we're not going to focus on

1169
03:33:17.639 --> 03:33:19.840
your feet. We're just going to focus on the legs.

1170
03:33:21.840 --> 03:33:26.440
I realize that now that I've mentioned your feet, it

1171
03:33:26.600 --> 03:33:31.520
probably focuses on them anyway, So maybe I should focus

1172
03:33:31.559 --> 03:33:37.440
on your feet a little bit. You can have them

1173
03:33:37.479 --> 03:33:43.239
in your awareness, the same as you have your thighs

1174
03:33:43.280 --> 03:33:47.680
in your awareness. Even though we haven't been focusing on

1175
03:33:47.760 --> 03:33:59.840
your thighs a few minutes, we've been focusing on your ankles.

1176
03:34:00.239 --> 03:34:15.319
That sensation of comfort in your thighs in this that

1177
03:34:15.719 --> 03:34:25.840
movement of energy because the thighs hold lots of different sensations.

1178
03:34:27.239 --> 03:34:32.120
Of course, there's the muscles, the big straw muscles that

1179
03:34:32.200 --> 03:34:45.159
we have in our thighs. But the skin on the

1180
03:34:45.200 --> 03:34:50.680
outside of the thighs, as in the outside of all

1181
03:34:50.760 --> 03:34:59.639
of our body, can be very sensitive, sensitive to the touch,

1182
03:35:02.360 --> 03:35:16.319
sensitive to temperature, and inside your thighs the bones, there's

1183
03:35:16.719 --> 03:35:21.920
the muscle, there's the blood, vessels, the arch trees, all

1184
03:35:22.040 --> 03:35:30.559
this stuff that's inside your thighs. And I guess sometimes

1185
03:35:31.239 --> 03:35:34.000
it'd be nice if you could actually put your fingers

1186
03:35:34.959 --> 03:35:41.000
inside your thighs and a message, so you can message

1187
03:35:41.040 --> 03:35:44.239
on the outside, of course, but to be able to

1188
03:35:44.239 --> 03:35:47.520
get deep into the muscles and to be able to

1189
03:35:47.559 --> 03:35:53.879
just message inside your thighs, message in the bones of

1190
03:35:53.959 --> 03:36:05.239
your leg, message in the veins, and just gently heathing

1191
03:36:05.879 --> 03:36:15.040
your thighs and you could move down message and inside

1192
03:36:15.040 --> 03:36:23.360
your knees, just message in those bones, but with healing fingertips,

1193
03:36:23.440 --> 03:36:29.879
spreading that healing energy deep into the joints of your knees.

1194
03:36:35.239 --> 03:36:38.879
Of course, there's the back of your your knee, you know,

1195
03:36:39.000 --> 03:36:45.040
the inside crease where your knee is. It's a very

1196
03:36:45.200 --> 03:36:51.239
sensitive area, very it feels very nice when you stroke it.

1197
03:36:52.479 --> 03:36:55.920
That might be because it's an area that's not really

1198
03:36:56.040 --> 03:37:02.559
touched very often. It's almost like a hidden part, that

1199
03:37:02.840 --> 03:37:09.600
crease in your legs. It's almost it's like a part

1200
03:37:09.719 --> 03:37:14.600
that has a sensitivity, which is a little bit different.

1201
03:37:22.440 --> 03:37:32.360
Of course, it's protected by your legs, so you can

1202
03:37:32.399 --> 03:37:37.840
imagine putting your fingers into that crease in your legs,

1203
03:37:43.559 --> 03:37:48.239
folding between your legs, you can just message with your fingertips.

1204
03:37:49.399 --> 03:37:59.760
Imagine your fingertips going inside, massage in the muscle tissue.

1205
03:38:00.760 --> 03:38:05.200
You can of course field the bones of your knees,

1206
03:38:06.520 --> 03:38:17.000
healing through your fingertips, and then as you go down

1207
03:38:19.840 --> 03:38:22.680
to your calf muscles, and that's the part I'd like

1208
03:38:22.719 --> 03:38:27.440
to be able to really put my fingertips deep inside

1209
03:38:28.159 --> 03:38:37.159
my calf muscles, massage in every single tissue of that muscle,

1210
03:38:38.719 --> 03:38:48.680
healing every part, and then doing the same for my shins,

1211
03:38:51.840 --> 03:38:58.760
massage in and gently stroking the bones, gently stroking them,

1212
03:38:59.559 --> 03:39:03.840
hear in a loving way, because they deserve to be

1213
03:39:03.920 --> 03:39:11.159
treated as the precious bones that they are, Because our

1214
03:39:11.239 --> 03:39:14.840
legs are so precious as in all the other parts

1215
03:39:14.879 --> 03:39:22.600
of our body, and more precious of any chore on

1216
03:39:22.639 --> 03:39:39.040
the planet. When you start to think about your legs

1217
03:39:39.120 --> 03:39:50.239
in this way, it can change your perspective. It might

1218
03:39:50.399 --> 03:39:57.159
sound a bit a bit silly to start with the

1219
03:39:57.200 --> 03:40:03.360
idea of having love for your legs, show an appreciation

1220
03:40:05.319 --> 03:40:11.000
for your thighs, wanting to be able to put your

1221
03:40:11.079 --> 03:40:19.399
hands in your thighs, massage the muscles and the bones,

1222
03:40:21.239 --> 03:40:26.959
and to get your fingers deep in there, releasing all tension.

1223
03:40:29.799 --> 03:40:38.639
Just to show how much you care about your legs,

1224
03:40:39.319 --> 03:40:43.079
how much you care for what your legs do for

1225
03:40:43.200 --> 03:40:56.879
you regularly, your knees, your calves, your ankles, the strength

1226
03:40:56.959 --> 03:41:05.040
of your ankles, considering how thin they are compared to

1227
03:41:05.159 --> 03:41:11.879
the rest of your legs, especially your thighs. Yeah, they're

1228
03:41:12.000 --> 03:41:24.280
so strong, so flexible, absolutely amazing things. Your ankles are

1229
03:41:28.120 --> 03:41:33.319
truly a gift because of what they do for you,

1230
03:41:38.680 --> 03:41:45.639
supporting all that weight, regardless of how what weight you are,

1231
03:41:46.799 --> 03:41:51.600
even if you're only eight stone, there's still a lot

1232
03:41:51.639 --> 03:41:58.319
of weight for these little ankles. Now, I'm a lot

1233
03:41:58.520 --> 03:42:08.520
heavier than eight stone double down, yet my ankles support

1234
03:42:08.559 --> 03:42:15.719
my body all the time, or though they do give

1235
03:42:15.760 --> 03:42:20.319
off a sigh of relief when I sit down, as

1236
03:42:21.200 --> 03:42:28.399
you have, my whole legs do my feet feet also

1237
03:42:28.520 --> 03:42:58.280
goes my toes Clap're so happy. Your legs really are amazing.

1238
03:43:00.879 --> 03:43:04.719
And I know that about talking about your legs is

1239
03:43:04.760 --> 03:43:11.600
probably possibly among the most most boring things I've ever

1240
03:43:12.079 --> 03:43:20.399
heard anyone say. Possibly or boring or not, everything I

1241
03:43:20.520 --> 03:43:36.479
said is true. Your legs are amazing. Your legs deserve

1242
03:43:37.479 --> 03:43:56.120
not just respect, they deserve to relax deeply. They deserve

1243
03:43:56.360 --> 03:44:01.280
to take some time out of the day to just

1244
03:44:01.600 --> 03:44:37.799
let go completely. Your legs really can relax. And because

1245
03:44:37.840 --> 03:44:41.840
the legs are so such a most you know, very

1246
03:44:41.840 --> 03:44:47.639
important part of your body. When you relax your legs,

1247
03:44:47.680 --> 03:44:54.959
the rest of your body also naturally follows in that

1248
03:44:58.639 --> 03:45:09.520
journey of comfort. I can feel it in my hips.

1249
03:45:10.879 --> 03:45:18.000
My hips feel really loose, and also my lighter back

1250
03:45:18.040 --> 03:45:24.680
as well. My lower back really feels it feels stretched,

1251
03:45:25.799 --> 03:45:28.840
even though I'm just sitting in a chair and there's

1252
03:45:28.920 --> 03:45:34.200
no stretching as far as I'm aware that I'm doing.

1253
03:45:35.200 --> 03:45:37.879
It's almost as if the muscles are just relaxed so

1254
03:45:38.079 --> 03:45:44.040
much that there is a natural stretch as the tension

1255
03:45:44.879 --> 03:46:06.159
has reduced a lot. And I'm now going to count

1256
03:46:06.239 --> 03:46:14.760
down from ten down to one, and you can continue

1257
03:46:15.959 --> 03:46:42.280
to fill wonderfully relaxed. Ten nine, eight, seven, six, five

1258
03:46:46.879 --> 03:47:15.319
four three two relax. So I'm just going to count

1259
03:47:15.360 --> 03:47:20.600
down from fire down to one. And as a countdown,

1260
03:47:21.680 --> 03:47:26.719
if you just focus on the numbers, just the numbers

1261
03:47:28.079 --> 03:47:37.120
counting down, and notice how you feel in this moment

1262
03:47:38.840 --> 03:47:43.239
as you hear the numbers counting down, knowing that those

1263
03:47:43.399 --> 03:47:56.479
numbers counting down represent you feeling calmer, not just in

1264
03:47:56.520 --> 03:48:04.879
your body, but also relaxing your mind. I just notice

1265
03:48:04.920 --> 03:48:11.000
how you feel. There's nothing to do, there's nothing to say,

1266
03:48:11.639 --> 03:48:28.799
there's nothing to think about, starting with number five four

1267
03:48:38.239 --> 03:49:14.000
three two one. And as you notice the gradual letting

1268
03:49:14.120 --> 03:49:22.639
go that the tension in your body, you may also

1269
03:49:23.159 --> 03:49:28.680
begin to notice and be aware of how your mind

1270
03:49:29.760 --> 03:49:37.760
is starting to slow down. This is just a natural

1271
03:49:38.479 --> 03:49:46.479
thing that happens. It's not really a special procedure. It's

1272
03:49:46.520 --> 03:49:52.239
just natural because as your body relaxes, your mind also

1273
03:49:52.600 --> 03:49:57.600
starts to relax. And the more your mind relaxes, the

1274
03:49:57.600 --> 03:50:02.040
more your body relaxes. It's just a cont hinuous circle

1275
03:50:02.120 --> 03:50:16.040
of relaxation. And there's that calmness that comes from relative quietness.

1276
03:50:17.440 --> 03:50:22.360
You know, even even if there's background sounds either your

1277
03:50:22.479 --> 03:50:30.879
side online is still going to be quite calm. You know,

1278
03:50:30.920 --> 03:50:35.639
you haven't got the television on, there's no music in

1279
03:50:35.680 --> 03:50:38.559
the background unless you're listening to the recording. With music,

1280
03:50:38.639 --> 03:50:45.879
of course, you're very likely not going to be sitting

1281
03:50:45.879 --> 03:50:49.200
in a room with other people. Of course you might be,

1282
03:50:49.239 --> 03:50:53.639
but generally it's more ideal if you can do this

1283
03:50:53.799 --> 03:51:04.879
on your own, so no distractions, and when you stop

1284
03:51:04.959 --> 03:51:20.399
thinking about stuff, relaxation automatically rises, a sense of comfort

1285
03:51:22.159 --> 03:51:31.040
starts to grow, and without trying to build it up

1286
03:51:31.079 --> 03:51:42.200
into something fantastical or something magical, this is just a

1287
03:51:42.399 --> 03:51:54.920
natural process, something that's easy to accomplish. In fact, it's

1288
03:51:55.040 --> 03:52:02.000
almost you know, the sense of relaxing completely happens really

1289
03:52:02.040 --> 03:52:07.040
when you put no effort into it. It's not something

1290
03:52:07.120 --> 03:52:15.159
that you can really force. It's something that happens naturally.

1291
03:52:18.079 --> 03:52:25.399
And part of the process of this recording and others

1292
03:52:26.959 --> 03:52:38.559
is simply two allow you to take advantage of this space,

1293
03:52:41.200 --> 03:52:54.200
this time, to just let go, to just be here,

1294
03:52:55.600 --> 03:53:08.559
to be in tune with how you feel, yet with

1295
03:53:09.239 --> 03:53:21.120
the intention of wanting to relax deeply and maybe even

1296
03:53:22.760 --> 03:53:27.200
to fall asleep, depending on what it is that you

1297
03:53:28.280 --> 03:53:41.399
wish for yourself in this moment. As we know, relaxing

1298
03:53:43.079 --> 03:53:51.200
is the majority of the process of falling asleep. The

1299
03:53:51.280 --> 03:53:55.840
actual falling asleep part is the tiny bit at the end.

1300
03:53:58.760 --> 03:54:13.440
The deeper relaxed you become, the easier you find yourself drifting.

1301
03:54:22.879 --> 03:54:29.479
But you can also if you choose, stay focused on

1302
03:54:29.600 --> 03:54:53.319
my voice and really enjoy the process of gradually relaxing

1303
03:54:57.600 --> 03:55:24.120
each muscle in your body effortlessly and just observing the

1304
03:55:24.280 --> 03:55:45.479
sensation of letting go completely. This time, I'm going to

1305
03:55:45.600 --> 03:55:55.399
count from six down to one, and you can notice

1306
03:55:55.840 --> 03:56:06.040
your mind calming down more with each number that you

1307
03:56:06.319 --> 03:59:20.920
hear me say, naturally, feeling calm and slow and peaceful. Six, five, four, three, two.

1308
03:58:54.879 --> 03:59:23.520
One, being aware of.

1309
03:59:20.760 --> 03:59:36.879
How your mind has slowed right down, sinking deeply into relaxation.

1310
03:59:50.520 --> 03:59:57.319
And as you focus on your mind, you may notice

1311
03:59:57.559 --> 04:00:07.360
that there's some thoughts still there, maybe some stubborn thoughts

1312
04:00:07.520 --> 04:00:22.799
that for some reason perhaps need your attention. So what

1313
04:00:23.000 --> 04:00:35.360
you can do is send love to those thoughts. Sprinkle

1314
04:00:35.959 --> 04:00:37.360
those thoughts.

1315
04:00:41.399 --> 04:00:42.239
With love.

1316
04:00:43.680 --> 04:00:49.079
Like all petals from a flower. Just sprinkle it over them,

1317
04:00:49.360 --> 04:00:56.600
petals filled with love towards those thoughts, to let those

1318
04:00:56.719 --> 04:01:03.280
thoughts know that you're not abandon in them. You just

1319
04:01:03.600 --> 04:01:13.719
need them, You require them to just calm down, slow down,

1320
04:01:16.000 --> 04:01:17.879
quiet down.

1321
04:01:21.000 --> 04:01:21.559
For now.

1322
04:01:29.280 --> 04:01:34.280
So as you focus on those remaining thoughts as we

1323
04:01:34.440 --> 04:01:39.719
count down this time from seven down to one. With

1324
04:01:39.840 --> 04:01:53.959
each number, just imagine sprinkling those flower petals of love, kindness,

1325
04:01:55.319 --> 04:02:07.239
gratitude over those thoughts, which will allow them to just

1326
04:02:08.600 --> 04:02:23.680
melt away and relax deeply. With every number, those thoughts

1327
04:02:23.760 --> 04:03:32.479
will become more and more relaxed, starting with number seven, six, five, four,

1328
04:03:58.319 --> 04:05:19.840
three one. And as you now notice how relaxed you're

1329
04:05:19.840 --> 04:05:39.639
feeling in your body, we're going to focus on your hands,

1330
04:05:45.440 --> 04:05:51.799
because the more relaxed your hands are, the more relaxed

1331
04:05:51.959 --> 04:06:12.719
your body and mind are. And there you focus on

1332
04:06:12.799 --> 04:06:23.319
your hands and your fingers. There's nothing needed to be done.

1333
04:06:24.319 --> 04:06:29.440
There's no clenching of fists or dents in the fingers

1334
04:06:29.520 --> 04:06:43.239
or anything like that. It's just noticing and focusing on

1335
04:06:43.280 --> 04:07:11.440
your hands, noticing how they feel. Because the more relaxed

1336
04:07:11.920 --> 04:07:21.879
your hands feel, the calmer your mind feels, and the

1337
04:07:21.959 --> 04:07:30.040
more comfort you feel throughout your body.

1338
04:07:35.200 --> 04:07:46.639
And you may have already.

1339
04:07:48.799 --> 04:07:59.159
Noticed you mind.

1340
04:08:01.680 --> 04:08:02.079
He is.

1341
04:08:04.959 --> 04:08:31.799
Starting to drest like since just on your hands and fingers,

1342
04:08:36.680 --> 04:08:50.520
allowing them to experience a real deepening of that relaxation

1343
04:08:52.239 --> 04:09:10.159
in your hands and fingers, more and more relaxed. With

1344
04:09:10.319 --> 04:09:29.000
each number from eight down to one. You can almost

1345
04:09:30.760 --> 04:09:40.559
feel that healing and relaxing energy spreading into your hands

1346
04:09:41.440 --> 04:10:06.319
and fingers, becoming year more relaxing with each number ye

1347
04:10:06.680 --> 04:10:27.559
going down eight down to one, drifting, drifting again starting

1348
04:10:27.799 --> 04:14:28.159
with number eight, seven, six, five, four, three, just being

1349
04:14:28.479 --> 04:14:38.799
here now, nothing to think about, nothing to do, nothing

1350
04:14:38.879 --> 04:14:52.760
to say, and everything just feels calmer. And this is

1351
04:14:53.799 --> 04:15:00.399
your natural state of being. This is how are you

1352
04:15:00.559 --> 04:15:07.479
just normally feel when you take away all that other

1353
04:15:07.840 --> 04:15:14.840
stuff that we add, you know, things like stress and

1354
04:15:15.000 --> 04:15:31.239
worrying and overthinking and anxiety, tension, just generally thinking about stuff.

1355
04:15:33.399 --> 04:15:37.399
You take that away, which is what we do. What

1356
04:15:37.440 --> 04:15:50.000
we do now you're left with a real sense of

1357
04:15:50.719 --> 04:16:03.159
peacefulness which comes to you very quickly, because ultimately it's

1358
04:16:03.360 --> 04:16:17.000
just a feeling, a feeling of comfort, almost as if

1359
04:16:17.040 --> 04:16:21.440
you've gone inside yourself and you've found a special place

1360
04:16:22.799 --> 04:16:35.280
where everything is peaceful, a place where you can feel

1361
04:16:36.440 --> 04:16:45.879
relaxed and your natural sense of comfort, a place where

1362
04:16:45.920 --> 04:16:55.440
you can be you, where you can accept yourself for

1363
04:16:55.600 --> 04:17:00.639
who you are, a place where you're not trying to

1364
04:17:02.879 --> 04:17:13.159
please anybody else ever, a place where you can actually

1365
04:17:16.440 --> 04:17:21.399
not just love yourself, but in some ways more importantly,

1366
04:17:22.000 --> 04:17:39.120
you can like yourself appreciate who you are. That sense

1367
04:17:39.159 --> 04:17:52.879
of gratitude is in the air all around you. That's

1368
04:17:52.959 --> 04:18:01.440
also a place where you can actually feel the healing

1369
04:18:01.840 --> 04:18:16.799
energy soaking into your body. Healing energy soaking into your body,

1370
04:18:21.680 --> 04:18:30.639
and that healing energy spreads through your veins, traveling to

1371
04:18:31.000 --> 04:18:43.040
each and every single part of your body, and you

1372
04:18:43.159 --> 04:18:50.200
start to realize that actually that healing energy, it's not

1373
04:18:50.399 --> 04:18:57.879
just entered into your brain, it's become part of your brain,

1374
04:19:02.799 --> 04:19:13.879
and that spinal fluid is now mixed with healing energy,

1375
04:19:14.719 --> 04:19:21.000
not just allowing you to feel so much more relaxed

1376
04:19:23.040 --> 04:19:35.040
and healthy in this moment, but also you start to

1377
04:19:35.200 --> 04:19:44.600
realize that actually, what's happening now with that healing, relaxing

1378
04:19:45.680 --> 04:19:57.879
energy spreading through your body, it's actually changing your life.

1379
04:19:58.719 --> 04:20:03.959
It's actually changing the way you're going to feel not

1380
04:20:04.120 --> 04:20:11.520
just now, but tomorrow and the next day. As your

1381
04:20:11.600 --> 04:20:19.760
health improves, not just your physical health but your mental health.

1382
04:20:23.639 --> 04:20:28.959
Things that used to bother you in the past for

1383
04:20:28.959 --> 04:20:35.040
some reason, no longer have the effect that they used

1384
04:20:35.040 --> 04:20:49.360
to because something has changed deep within you. Maybe things

1385
04:20:49.639 --> 04:20:59.319
that used to cause you to feel anger no longer

1386
04:20:59.639 --> 04:21:09.360
have that power to control you the way they seem

1387
04:21:09.479 --> 04:21:18.360
to be able to before. As you realize that you're

1388
04:21:18.440 --> 04:21:31.319
the one who decides what affects you, you're the one

1389
04:21:31.760 --> 04:21:42.239
who decides to feel relaxed and calm when you choose

1390
04:21:45.760 --> 04:22:00.319
to enjoy noticing these natural developments of healing, continuing to

1391
04:22:00.440 --> 04:22:14.879
grow and improve your life day by day, including of course,

1392
04:22:14.959 --> 04:22:27.719
your ability to relax so much easier and sleep in.

1393
04:22:32.280 --> 04:22:37.959
It's the most natural thing in the world to you,

1394
04:22:42.479 --> 04:22:49.719
because falling asleep is something that you've done so many

1395
04:22:49.799 --> 04:22:57.639
times in your life, and you know that you were born,

1396
04:22:59.120 --> 04:23:05.799
as we all were, with the ability to fall asleep naturally.

1397
04:23:10.000 --> 04:23:20.719
We were born with that ability to just drift off

1398
04:23:21.440 --> 04:23:34.600
into a deep, healing sleep. Even when we're kids, sometimes

1399
04:23:34.639 --> 04:23:39.079
will fall asleep and we don't even want to try

1400
04:23:39.120 --> 04:23:43.440
to take us stay awake. Maybe it's a birthday in

1401
04:23:43.479 --> 04:23:47.639
the morning, or it's Christmas or holiday or something we

1402
04:23:47.760 --> 04:23:50.280
look forward to. We don't want to go to sleep.

1403
04:23:52.440 --> 04:23:57.479
But the more we want to stay awake, the more

1404
04:23:57.639 --> 04:24:06.000
we just start to drift, and the more you fight drifting.

1405
04:24:06.639 --> 04:24:09.079
The more you try to stop yourself and drift in

1406
04:24:09.079 --> 04:24:22.120
a safe the deeper and stronger that drifting becomes. Because

1407
04:24:22.159 --> 04:24:27.600
we're born not just with the need to relax deeply

1408
04:24:29.280 --> 04:24:39.120
and to naturally fall asleep, but it's our birthright, it's

1409
04:24:39.239 --> 04:24:49.799
part of our DNA, and sometimes as we get older

1410
04:24:49.840 --> 04:25:03.360
in life, perhaps at times we have forgotten that relaxing completely.

1411
04:25:05.079 --> 04:25:28.959
It's not only a wonderfully pleasant experience, it's also really easy.

1412
04:25:29.799 --> 04:25:37.319
It's very very easy to let go, because that's all

1413
04:25:37.360 --> 04:25:51.799
it is. It's just deciding to let go. And when

1414
04:25:51.879 --> 04:25:59.680
you press the play button on my recordings, you have

1415
04:25:59.799 --> 04:26:10.479
given permission for my voice to relax you. When you

1416
04:26:10.600 --> 04:26:15.799
press that play button, you have given me permission for

1417
04:26:15.959 --> 04:26:30.120
my words to affect you in a positive, only a

1418
04:26:30.159 --> 04:26:51.559
positive way, opening up your mind. Two useful and healing

1419
04:26:53.079 --> 04:27:09.239
suggestions that can have such an amazing effect on how

1420
04:27:09.280 --> 04:27:21.399
you feel right now, as well as those changes that

1421
04:27:21.680 --> 04:27:31.719
continue long after the recording ends. Those changes within you

1422
04:27:34.520 --> 04:27:47.760
to continue to flourish and grow, transforming your life in

1423
04:27:47.799 --> 04:27:59.760
a positive, beautiful way, allowing you to move forward in

1424
04:27:59.760 --> 04:28:06.479
your life in the direction that you choose for yourself.

1425
04:28:15.520 --> 04:28:26.079
And this feeling, this feeling that you can experience of safety, comfort,

1426
04:28:26.959 --> 04:28:48.239
calmness just feels so nice. It's such a healthy place

1427
04:28:49.040 --> 04:29:09.280
to be, and that positivity grows within you each and

1428
04:29:09.600 --> 04:29:22.719
every day. Moving forward, you're going to find that you're

1429
04:29:22.719 --> 04:29:38.040
more relaxed physically and in your mind is more relaxed.

1430
04:29:38.159 --> 04:29:43.479
And it's not that you're thinking slower. It's just that

1431
04:29:43.520 --> 04:29:51.520
your mind will be less clogged up with unnecessary negativity

1432
04:29:55.440 --> 04:30:05.639
because from now on, your mind rejects negativity. From now on,

1433
04:30:06.280 --> 04:30:17.159
you're going to start noticing when negativity arises and you

1434
04:30:17.200 --> 04:30:31.000
can just say stop, stop, and that negativity will turn

1435
04:30:31.079 --> 04:30:51.479
around and leave you alone. Stop and that negativity will disappear.

1436
04:30:59.559 --> 04:31:06.120
And that you notice that you feel way more relaxed

1437
04:31:07.520 --> 04:31:22.920
than you probably expected. You can now congratulate yourself because

1438
04:31:23.079 --> 04:31:29.479
you're the person that has done this. You are the

1439
04:31:29.600 --> 04:31:34.680
one that has opened your mind up to the simple

1440
04:31:34.879 --> 04:31:42.840
facts that you can feel more relaxed in your body

1441
04:31:43.479 --> 04:31:52.760
and in your mind. You've opened your mind up to

1442
04:31:55.079 --> 04:32:01.680
the birthright of being able to just fall asleep easily

1443
04:32:02.719 --> 04:32:16.760
when you choose. And that's a nice feeling. Don't you

1444
04:32:16.840 --> 04:32:28.440
think it feels nice? Doesn't it to feel calm? All

1445
04:32:28.479 --> 04:32:33.079
that healing energy is spreading through your body and your

1446
04:32:33.159 --> 04:32:50.680
mind to spend time a special place where negativity can

1447
04:32:50.760 --> 04:33:03.360
no longer enter. Negativity is bad, and it's bad. It's

1448
04:33:03.440 --> 04:33:10.119
not allowed Entryue doesn't it doesn't. This doesn't deserve to

1449
04:33:10.159 --> 04:33:18.279
be here. It doesn't belong here. Negativity has no place

1450
04:33:19.279 --> 04:33:36.080
in your life, which makes room for more comfort, more heathing,

1451
04:33:38.200 --> 04:34:05.479
more relaxation, more peace. It feels nice, doesn't it? Just

1452
04:34:08.959 --> 04:34:28.880
the let go with everything. I'm going to count down

1453
04:34:29.040 --> 04:34:37.759
now from twenty down to one. You can continue to relax,

1454
04:34:39.919 --> 04:34:51.479
if you choose, you can drift to sleep with every

1455
04:34:51.639 --> 04:35:03.319
number you hear me say, can fill twice is relaxed,

1456
04:35:06.319 --> 04:35:18.400
or if you choose, you can fill twice sleepy now

1457
04:35:23.000 --> 04:37:22.799
twenty nineteen, eighteen, seventeen, sixteen, fifteen, fourteen, thirteen, twelve, eleven, ten, nine, eight, seven, six,

1458
04:37:31.200 --> 04:38:16.639
five four on. This is your time to just take

1459
04:38:16.680 --> 04:38:31.799
a break, your time to relax, to allow your mind

1460
04:38:31.919 --> 04:38:49.240
to slow down, to give yourself permission to take a

1461
04:38:49.279 --> 04:38:55.520
break from everything.

1462
04:39:00.360 --> 04:39:00.520
End.

1463
04:39:00.560 --> 04:39:07.759
You're the only person that can make that decision. You're

1464
04:39:07.799 --> 04:39:15.200
the only person that can actually tell your mind to

1465
04:39:15.479 --> 04:39:39.639
just relax, to just take some time off so that

1466
04:39:39.759 --> 04:39:44.759
you can focus on your body, getting in touch with

1467
04:39:45.880 --> 04:40:02.319
how you feel physically, and in the process of this

1468
04:40:02.560 --> 04:40:12.000
body scan, where you focus on different parts of your body,

1469
04:40:13.880 --> 04:40:21.439
those parts that you focus on and observe, even though

1470
04:40:21.479 --> 04:40:29.720
you're not purposely requesting for those parts of your body

1471
04:40:29.840 --> 04:40:38.360
to relax, it's kind of expected. You expect when you

1472
04:40:38.520 --> 04:40:51.599
listen to my voice to feel more relaxed naturally, because

1473
04:40:51.639 --> 04:41:01.479
when you're listening to me, your attention is focused on

1474
04:41:01.680 --> 04:41:13.279
my words. And as my words guide you to focus

1475
04:41:17.599 --> 04:41:32.520
on those parts of your body, your focus increases, which

1476
04:41:32.639 --> 04:41:48.639
actually calms your mind. And when your mind calms down,

1477
04:41:53.439 --> 04:42:15.560
your body relaxes. And when your body calms down, your

1478
04:42:15.680 --> 04:42:32.599
mind relaxes. And even though I've not really started the

1479
04:42:32.680 --> 04:42:45.439
focus on your body, you can already feel that healing

1480
04:42:45.639 --> 04:42:59.959
energy spreading through your body, pushing out stress and tension

1481
04:43:00.000 --> 04:43:11.560
and healing All the parts of your body, including your skin,

1482
04:43:12.680 --> 04:43:19.639
your bones, your blood, all of your organs inside your body,

1483
04:43:21.000 --> 04:43:27.799
all of the muscles, all of the fat, all of everything,

1484
04:43:29.639 --> 04:43:40.720
every hair on your body is filled with that healing energy.

1485
04:43:43.840 --> 04:43:59.560
And when your brain fills with that healing energy, the

1486
04:44:00.080 --> 04:44:24.240
eating of comfort and relaxation increases deeply increases in a

1487
04:44:24.319 --> 04:44:43.799
way to your mind starts to feel perhaps bit drowsy

1488
04:44:44.479 --> 04:44:55.040
because it's not needed, and it may start to drift

1489
04:45:03.799 --> 04:45:10.720
if that's what's needed. So if you're listening to this

1490
04:45:12.560 --> 04:45:16.840
and what you need is deep relaxation, that's what you get.

1491
04:45:19.000 --> 04:45:25.919
If what you need is to fall asleep naturally and

1492
04:45:26.119 --> 04:45:34.720
easily as your mind drifts, that's also what will happen.

1493
04:45:40.360 --> 04:45:48.119
Because by pressing that play button on the podcast and

1494
04:45:48.400 --> 04:45:54.759
listening to me, you give permission for your body and

1495
04:45:54.840 --> 04:46:06.880
your mind. In fact, you give the command to your

1496
04:46:06.919 --> 04:46:18.279
body and your mind to relax deeply and to drift

1497
04:46:18.360 --> 04:46:27.279
off to sleep if that's what you want or need.

1498
04:46:34.959 --> 04:46:44.720
And as I focus on the different parts of your body,

1499
04:46:45.599 --> 04:46:54.439
you may start to just drift. And then you come

1500
04:46:54.520 --> 04:46:59.119
back again and you hear me talk again, and I'm

1501
04:46:59.159 --> 04:47:07.959
focusing on a different parts of your body, and you

1502
04:47:08.200 --> 04:47:19.400
may find yourself drifting. You don't realize you're drifting until

1503
04:47:19.439 --> 04:47:26.720
you stop drifting and you're alert again to my voice.

1504
04:47:27.400 --> 04:47:33.319
Focusing on a different part of your body starts to

1505
04:47:33.439 --> 04:47:44.319
relax even deeper, because that drifting is basically you already

1506
04:47:46.599 --> 04:47:56.479
in the sleep zone. And the more you drift, the

1507
04:47:56.639 --> 04:48:06.319
longer you drift, and the longer you dreat Eventually that

1508
04:48:06.560 --> 04:48:16.799
drifting continues into sleep, and that's the last you remember

1509
04:48:18.840 --> 04:48:27.200
until you wake up in your own time, when you

1510
04:48:27.319 --> 04:48:35.720
experience the right amount of sleep for you, because when

1511
04:48:35.759 --> 04:48:45.159
you do and if you do fall asleep, it's extremely pleasant,

1512
04:48:47.880 --> 04:49:09.240
so relaxing, so deep, healing, sleepy. It feels so nice

1513
04:49:11.400 --> 04:49:21.360
to relax into your own body and mind as you

1514
04:49:21.520 --> 04:49:29.479
feel that heathing energy is spreading through it, relaxing news

1515
04:49:29.520 --> 04:49:52.200
so deeply, relaxing, so so deeply. We start to focus

1516
04:49:53.880 --> 04:50:16.119
on your eyes, moving down to your chow, down to

1517
04:50:16.240 --> 04:51:04.560
your neck, your shoulders, arms, hand, fingers, your chest, stoma,

1518
04:51:11.919 --> 04:51:55.360
you back, your spine, you's, you, legs, your feet, you

1519
04:51:55.880 --> 04:52:25.680
chose and feeding, heeting, spreading and growing inside your body,

1520
04:52:26.680 --> 04:52:38.319
feeling you up. Now let's focus again on parts of

1521
04:52:38.360 --> 04:52:52.799
your body, focusing this time on your forehead. Now on

1522
04:52:52.880 --> 04:53:02.119
your mouth, your lips, your tongue, the whole of your mouth.

1523
04:53:14.319 --> 04:53:25.720
Focus in on your fingers. Maybe you could move your

1524
04:53:25.759 --> 04:53:31.400
fingers a little bit. You can focus on each one individually,

1525
04:53:37.599 --> 04:53:44.799
both hands, and even though if you focus on both

1526
04:53:44.840 --> 04:53:50.279
of your hands now they almost seem to just melt

1527
04:53:50.400 --> 04:53:58.400
into one. Where there is your right hand. Start in

1528
04:53:58.479 --> 04:54:14.560
your left hand end, almost as if just mixed together. Now,

1529
04:54:14.720 --> 04:54:42.599
focusing on your knees, just noticing how your knees fell. Now,

1530
04:54:42.840 --> 04:54:50.080
focusing on your elbows, focusing on both of your elbows,

1531
04:54:56.319 --> 04:55:33.680
just observing the feet thing elmos. Now focusing absurding the

1532
04:55:33.840 --> 04:55:49.520
back of your neck, feeding that energy the back of

1533
04:55:49.639 --> 04:56:41.599
your neck, absurd your ankles, being aware of physical sensations

1534
04:56:41.840 --> 04:57:52.840
in your ankles, not to say, no, its.

1535
04:57:54.560 --> 04:58:00.119
Go who you think?

1536
04:58:02.720 --> 04:58:48.240
Being aware how your taste feel right now, not to then,

1537
04:58:58.400 --> 04:59:22.360
how are you in time, body feels noticing your mind

1538
04:59:24.959 --> 05:00:22.599
feels now letting go, letting go, letting go everything, letting go,

1539
05:00:28.840 --> 05:01:03.880
letting go, letting go everything everything. I'm going to start now,

1540
05:01:05.400 --> 05:01:07.439
and I'd like you, just, first of all, just to

1541
05:01:07.599 --> 05:01:15.560
see yourself lying down on that message table, lying on

1542
05:01:15.599 --> 05:01:20.639
your front. Your head is supported, your arms are supported,

1543
05:01:25.119 --> 05:01:31.400
and you feel comfortable and breathing is really easy, and

1544
05:01:31.520 --> 05:01:38.400
you feel you feel confident in how you look as well.

1545
05:01:38.479 --> 05:01:43.159
So there's none of that issue of body problems or shyness,

1546
05:01:44.000 --> 05:01:52.159
because I'm a professional and this is a therapy session,

1547
05:01:52.959 --> 05:02:01.080
so none of that stuff matters whatsoever. This is about you.

1548
05:02:03.759 --> 05:02:09.680
This is about how you feel and how you can

1549
05:02:10.959 --> 05:02:17.439
enjoy that sense of comfort and relaxation that comes from

1550
05:02:18.000 --> 05:02:23.759
letting go and allowing my hands and my fingers to

1551
05:02:23.759 --> 05:02:35.240
relax you by a message your body. So I want

1552
05:02:35.240 --> 05:02:40.240
to start off just by placing my hands on the

1553
05:02:40.279 --> 05:02:45.240
back of your head, just gently, just you can feel

1554
05:02:45.319 --> 05:02:53.799
what my hands feel like really on you. So you

1555
05:02:53.840 --> 05:02:56.119
can maybe feel the warmth of my hands on the

1556
05:02:56.159 --> 05:03:01.520
back of your head. And with my hands to the

1557
05:03:01.599 --> 05:03:05.799
side of your head, not pressing, but just holding there

1558
05:03:05.919 --> 05:03:11.799
very gently, maybe over your ears, and a little bit

1559
05:03:11.840 --> 05:03:16.560
on your face, just so you can feel my hands

1560
05:03:18.520 --> 05:03:20.799
so you can become accustomed.

1561
05:03:21.680 --> 05:03:30.479
To them.

1562
05:03:30.759 --> 05:03:32.959
And now put my hands on the back of your

1563
05:03:33.000 --> 05:03:40.439
head again and gently let them slide down onto the

1564
05:03:40.479 --> 05:03:57.479
back of your neck. You can feel my hands gently

1565
05:03:57.680 --> 05:04:04.840
stroking the back of your neck to start, just so

1566
05:04:04.919 --> 05:04:09.319
you can get used to the feeling with my hands

1567
05:04:09.360 --> 05:04:17.439
on your skin, get accustomed to realize that you're safe

1568
05:04:18.400 --> 05:04:27.159
and it's all good, it's all fine. And I'm going

1569
05:04:27.240 --> 05:04:31.439
to start gently messaging the muscles in the back of

1570
05:04:31.479 --> 05:04:47.360
your neck with both hands. Now, this is a very

1571
05:04:47.439 --> 05:04:55.560
trusting situation really, because our necks are so fragile and

1572
05:04:55.639 --> 05:04:59.720
to have someone have their hands around your neck in

1573
05:04:59.799 --> 05:05:05.200
the way can sometimes be problematic for people, which is

1574
05:05:05.200 --> 05:05:09.720
why massages are quite good because it allows you to

1575
05:05:09.759 --> 05:05:24.119
relax and to get in touch with trust, to feel

1576
05:05:24.159 --> 05:05:36.360
peaceful and calm. And there's a massage the sides of

1577
05:05:36.439 --> 05:05:44.360
your neck gently moving from the bottom of your neck.

1578
05:05:46.040 --> 05:05:48.560
It would be sort of near where your shoulders start,

1579
05:05:48.639 --> 05:05:55.680
I guess, all the way up to your jaw, your ears,

1580
05:05:56.119 --> 05:06:01.880
kind of area that side of your neck. Of course,

1581
05:06:01.880 --> 05:06:04.479
it's a lot longer than the front of your neck.

1582
05:06:17.479 --> 05:06:24.560
The message in the back of your neck, especially that

1583
05:06:24.759 --> 05:06:34.200
area where perhaps we hold tension, and as that area's message,

1584
05:06:34.560 --> 05:06:38.680
you can actually feel a sense of release in the

1585
05:06:38.680 --> 05:06:46.639
back of your neck, and maybe you can breathe it

1586
05:06:46.680 --> 05:06:52.720
out as well. Notice how it feels. Notice how you feel.

1587
05:07:02.520 --> 05:07:06.200
Then moving down to that area between your neck and

1588
05:07:06.240 --> 05:07:16.400
your shoulders, that musty area, starting to message that area

1589
05:07:16.439 --> 05:07:20.799
on both sides. I mean, this would be the area

1590
05:07:20.880 --> 05:07:23.479
that a lot of people would message if they were

1591
05:07:23.479 --> 05:07:28.680
going to give you like a shoulder message. Even that's

1592
05:07:28.799 --> 05:07:32.279
not technically the shoulders, but it's all the muscles that

1593
05:07:32.400 --> 05:07:38.880
lead to the shoulders from the neck and again that

1594
05:07:38.919 --> 05:07:45.880
can hold tension and stress, and when massaged sometimes a

1595
05:07:45.959 --> 05:07:53.319
nice deep message is useful, and you decide how deep

1596
05:07:53.919 --> 05:08:11.159
that message is, and just allow my knuckles just to

1597
05:08:11.279 --> 05:08:15.840
dig in to get to those muscles and to reading

1598
05:08:19.279 --> 05:08:27.880
relaxed all the time being firm yet gentle with you

1599
05:08:39.959 --> 05:08:46.560
and just stroking down the area to your actual shoulders,

1600
05:08:48.720 --> 05:08:58.400
moving to the muscles of your shoulders, and maybe initially

1601
05:08:58.520 --> 05:09:02.599
just pulling up the shoulders a little bit off the

1602
05:09:02.680 --> 05:09:06.360
table just to give you a little bit of a stretch,

1603
05:09:08.119 --> 05:09:16.840
but very gently. And you've got the muscles at the

1604
05:09:16.880 --> 05:09:28.799
front of your shoulders, the sides and the back. Again,

1605
05:09:29.080 --> 05:09:32.959
this is a part that can really take quite a

1606
05:09:32.959 --> 05:09:41.240
bit of pressure, quite a bit of needing. If if

1607
05:09:41.279 --> 05:09:49.279
you wish to really release the tension to really get

1608
05:09:49.319 --> 05:09:55.919
into those muscles, and you can let your fingers in there.

1609
05:09:57.000 --> 05:10:03.080
You can feel really nice sometimes just being stroked gently

1610
05:10:04.080 --> 05:10:13.240
or being massaged quite strongly. It can all be beneficial

1611
05:10:14.799 --> 05:10:33.080
to the realxation with the muscles in your shoulders. Now

1612
05:10:33.319 --> 05:10:42.759
to move down your arms, we do one arm at

1613
05:10:42.799 --> 05:10:53.040
a time, starting with your right arm. Well, I DearS,

1614
05:10:53.200 --> 05:10:57.560
I just lift your arm up, just hold it to

1615
05:10:57.599 --> 05:11:05.000
the side of you that would still be attached, and

1616
05:11:05.119 --> 05:11:19.759
I just message the tops of your arms all the

1617
05:11:19.799 --> 05:11:38.439
way down to your forearms, into your wrists, gently massaging

1618
05:11:44.319 --> 05:11:50.680
that part, the softer part, which is the under part

1619
05:11:50.720 --> 05:11:56.240
of the arm, which leads to the crease in your

1620
05:11:56.319 --> 05:12:12.319
robo the inside. It's much more sensitive skin. Sometimes just

1621
05:12:12.439 --> 05:12:22.799
having that stroked, I feel really nice, pleasurable and relaxing.

1622
05:12:31.479 --> 05:12:42.119
Now moving down to your right hand, just holding your

1623
05:12:42.240 --> 05:12:55.400
hand in both of my hands, just pressing gently on

1624
05:12:55.560 --> 05:13:00.599
the back of your hand and stretching your finger is

1625
05:13:02.560 --> 05:13:11.680
ever slightly at the same time, pressing down a message

1626
05:13:11.720 --> 05:13:24.959
in each finger and then starting to massage the palms

1627
05:13:25.080 --> 05:13:37.799
of your hand. Just turning the hand gently, stretching it gently,

1628
05:13:43.040 --> 05:13:48.720
and actually having your hand held can really be an

1629
05:13:48.720 --> 05:13:56.240
emotional experience sometimes, even if it is a stranger, so

1630
05:13:56.319 --> 05:14:00.599
when you don't know very well, like a massage person

1631
05:14:00.840 --> 05:14:13.840
or a therapist, maybe because it's intimate and you can

1632
05:14:13.880 --> 05:14:26.840
feel nice, you can feel safe. And as I put

1633
05:14:26.959 --> 05:14:35.479
that right arm back down where it was, we're gonna

1634
05:14:35.520 --> 05:14:42.040
do the same with your left arm, exactly the same

1635
05:14:46.680 --> 05:14:51.439
message in the muscles in your arm, all the way

1636
05:14:51.479 --> 05:15:05.159
down to your wrist, stroking the inside of your arm,

1637
05:15:05.200 --> 05:15:18.759
just being gentle or as firm as you require and

1638
05:15:18.799 --> 05:15:35.200
then massaging your left hand, stretching the fingers, gently massaging

1639
05:15:35.479 --> 05:15:55.200
the palm of your left hand. You feel so so relaxing,

1640
05:16:02.880 --> 05:16:20.680
so comforting, and I just rest your left down, back down.

1641
05:16:28.200 --> 05:16:38.959
Start to massage your back, the biggest part of your body,

1642
05:16:39.919 --> 05:16:46.799
starting at the top, starting again where we already been,

1643
05:16:47.560 --> 05:16:52.159
the area at the top in between his shoulders, k

1644
05:16:52.159 --> 05:16:57.520
near your neck. Going back the message in that area again,

1645
05:16:58.639 --> 05:17:12.400
but this time moving downwards, taking a downward stroke to

1646
05:17:12.400 --> 05:17:18.880
the middle of your back, working from the outside inwards.

1647
05:17:20.119 --> 05:17:26.599
It's a massage in the your back, but the the

1648
05:17:26.680 --> 05:17:37.159
outsides of your back, the parts where your arms would

1649
05:17:37.159 --> 05:17:50.400
maybe rest against, almost the path that connects your front

1650
05:17:50.560 --> 05:18:08.319
to your back. Just messaging down firmly but gently, as

1651
05:18:08.479 --> 05:18:16.479
firm as you want, moving down and moving across a

1652
05:18:16.520 --> 05:18:20.159
little bit, and moving all the way down again, being

1653
05:18:20.319 --> 05:18:33.159
very gentle yet firm as you choose. Eventually we get

1654
05:18:33.200 --> 05:18:38.279
to the spine. We can message the muscles and either

1655
05:18:38.400 --> 05:18:41.759
side of your spine from the top of your neck

1656
05:18:42.200 --> 05:18:53.720
all the way down to your lower back. We can

1657
05:18:53.759 --> 05:19:03.159
do that a few times. Sometimes people use the knuckle

1658
05:19:04.040 --> 05:19:08.799
or the you know, two fingers and just go your

1659
05:19:08.880 --> 05:19:14.200
side of the spine almost just push down, go all

1660
05:19:14.200 --> 05:19:18.040
the way down to the bottom of the spine, each

1661
05:19:18.200 --> 05:19:28.759
time releasing tension and opening up the body, stretching your

1662
05:19:28.799 --> 05:19:35.639
body so that you feel more relaxed but at the

1663
05:19:35.720 --> 05:19:52.080
same time rejuvenated. And now I'm going to move to

1664
05:19:52.159 --> 05:20:00.880
one side, to your right side, from the bottom of

1665
05:20:00.919 --> 05:20:07.639
your ribs to your pelvis. I'm going to massage that

1666
05:20:07.840 --> 05:20:13.360
area of your back. I'll stretch over the other side

1667
05:20:13.880 --> 05:20:18.599
and i will pull the muscles gently and massage and

1668
05:20:18.720 --> 05:20:23.119
push from one end that side or way to my

1669
05:20:23.319 --> 05:20:28.599
side to the middle of fact to where your spine is.

1670
05:20:29.919 --> 05:20:35.599
Massaging that side of your spine the opposite side to

1671
05:20:35.639 --> 05:20:43.520
where I'm standing. It's almost like kneading bread. There's that

1672
05:20:43.680 --> 05:20:54.000
big area which is firm yet lots there to massage.

1673
05:20:55.759 --> 05:21:00.240
Potentially one of the most important places to actually have

1674
05:21:00.639 --> 05:21:08.040
a message because you really feel it. You really feel

1675
05:21:08.240 --> 05:21:13.599
the release and the pleasure of having your lower back massaged.

1676
05:21:16.759 --> 05:21:22.560
It releases so much from your body that's not useful,

1677
05:21:25.639 --> 05:21:31.240
starting a healing process which will continue long after this

1678
05:21:31.400 --> 05:21:43.520
recording is over. A message in this part of your

1679
05:21:43.560 --> 05:21:49.000
body not only feels really good for you, it's actually

1680
05:21:49.040 --> 05:21:53.119
fun to do because it is as I said, like

1681
05:21:53.279 --> 05:21:58.439
kneading bread, it's a part that you can really get

1682
05:21:58.599 --> 05:22:13.279
hold of and really message deeply. If that's your choice,

1683
05:22:14.000 --> 05:22:15.919
then I'm going to move over to the other side

1684
05:22:15.959 --> 05:22:22.479
of your body and do the same with the opposite

1685
05:22:22.520 --> 05:22:31.880
part of your lawer back, kneading and messaging from your

1686
05:22:32.040 --> 05:22:38.720
sides all the way to the middle of your back

1687
05:22:39.279 --> 05:22:52.880
where your spine is pressing and kneading firm and gentle

1688
05:22:53.000 --> 05:23:02.880
at the same time. It feels so releasing this mixture

1689
05:23:02.919 --> 05:23:18.360
of pleasure, comfort, release, calmness, relaxation or mixed together. Plus

1690
05:23:18.400 --> 05:23:22.840
there's that feeling from your stomach as it's being stretched.

1691
05:23:24.720 --> 05:23:27.880
Even though you're in your stomach now, you can feel

1692
05:23:27.880 --> 05:23:31.759
it being stretched because that whole area is connected to

1693
05:23:31.799 --> 05:23:43.159
your stomach. Now we're going to move or move further

1694
05:23:43.319 --> 05:23:48.040
up to your top of your body, and I we

1695
05:23:48.159 --> 05:23:56.319
did the same this time, starting with your upper back.

1696
05:23:56.799 --> 05:24:05.080
Put my hands forward over and massage in that area

1697
05:24:05.560 --> 05:24:09.360
up to your spine, from the side of your body

1698
05:24:09.520 --> 05:24:14.520
up to your spine. So some of that massage area,

1699
05:24:14.919 --> 05:24:20.919
the muscle tissue or whatever fatty tissue even will be

1700
05:24:21.200 --> 05:24:26.599
possibly from your chest. There's all connected chest and the

1701
05:24:26.759 --> 05:24:33.319
back connect together. I'm going to be massaging and just

1702
05:24:33.439 --> 05:24:40.200
pulling some of that skin from your side up and

1703
05:24:40.400 --> 05:24:49.119
massaging that area of your upper back all the way

1704
05:24:49.240 --> 05:24:55.880
to your spine. And then I'll move down a bit and

1705
05:24:55.880 --> 05:24:59.560
I'll continue with the middle of your back, doing exactly

1706
05:24:59.639 --> 05:25:08.599
the same thing as gentle, as deep as you choose.

1707
05:25:17.279 --> 05:25:21.400
Now move or the other side again and do the

1708
05:25:21.479 --> 05:25:25.680
exact same thing with the top of your back on

1709
05:25:25.759 --> 05:25:35.080
the other side, from pretty much underneath your arm area

1710
05:25:35.159 --> 05:25:50.319
really to your spine. I then continue in that all

1711
05:25:50.360 --> 05:25:55.479
the way down, including your lower your middle of your back.

1712
05:26:09.119 --> 05:26:14.479
I'm gonna go to your thighs, the backs of your thighs,

1713
05:26:16.959 --> 05:26:24.400
and the sides of your thighs, starting with your right leg.

1714
05:26:26.680 --> 05:26:36.479
Massage in the back and the sides of your thighs

1715
05:26:36.520 --> 05:26:42.959
gently and firmly. There's a lot of muscles there. It's

1716
05:26:43.000 --> 05:26:46.279
an area that can be very tense at times and

1717
05:26:46.439 --> 05:26:49.840
maybe needs a little bit more pressure than the rest

1718
05:26:49.880 --> 05:26:58.080
of the body that's up to you. You can gently

1719
05:26:58.200 --> 05:27:05.520
stroke the back of your legs where you know, opposite

1720
05:27:05.520 --> 05:27:11.080
your knee joint or underneath your knee joint, very sensitive,

1721
05:27:11.319 --> 05:27:24.000
gentle area. And then working down to your calf muscles

1722
05:27:26.880 --> 05:27:33.319
massage in your calf muscles thoroughly and deeply, if you choose,

1723
05:27:36.720 --> 05:27:53.680
using both hands and fingers, digging deep to your ankles,

1724
05:27:55.919 --> 05:28:01.560
in the back of your back of your ankles, just

1725
05:28:01.840 --> 05:28:13.520
gently message in the area, maybe lifting the leg and

1726
05:28:14.319 --> 05:28:37.639
stretching a little bit. Moving to the right foot, massaging

1727
05:28:40.200 --> 05:28:46.959
the bottom of your feet and the size of your

1728
05:28:47.000 --> 05:29:03.720
feet gently but firm enough so they don't tickle, and

1729
05:29:03.840 --> 05:29:09.319
just allow the pleasure that you get from having your

1730
05:29:09.360 --> 05:29:18.759
feet massage to just overtake you as I continue to

1731
05:29:18.880 --> 05:29:25.279
message your feet, the bottoms of your feet, the sides,

1732
05:29:27.880 --> 05:29:33.599
your arches, your heel. You can put a lot of

1733
05:29:33.680 --> 05:29:39.599
pressure into your heel and it feels amazing, yet the

1734
05:29:39.759 --> 05:29:47.880
arches need to be a bit more gentle. Stretching your

1735
05:29:48.000 --> 05:29:54.560
toes gently and massage in the bottoms of your toes

1736
05:29:55.200 --> 05:30:10.520
with my fingers, each one individually. Moving over to the

1737
05:30:10.639 --> 05:30:20.040
left leg to do exactly the same thing. Starting at

1738
05:30:20.080 --> 05:30:24.520
the top of the thighs, work in the back of

1739
05:30:24.599 --> 05:30:32.159
the thighs and the sides, massaging deeply and gently the

1740
05:30:32.319 --> 05:30:46.360
whole area, working all the way down. And this is

1741
05:30:46.400 --> 05:30:52.599
an area that maybe you could like to spend more

1742
05:30:52.680 --> 05:31:01.319
time relaxing and massaging, So perhaps if you wanted like

1743
05:31:01.400 --> 05:31:06.720
a bigger future recording where spend more time on one

1744
05:31:06.799 --> 05:31:18.680
particular area. As you move down to your calf muscles,

1745
05:31:24.639 --> 05:31:38.080
massage in your calf muscles firmly and gently, moving down

1746
05:31:40.360 --> 05:31:46.720
your ancor into your feet, Massage in the backs of

1747
05:31:46.799 --> 05:31:57.680
your feet, bottoms of your feet, stretching your toes, and

1748
05:31:57.880 --> 05:32:03.880
massage in each tone. The picture and the feeling of

1749
05:32:04.080 --> 05:32:10.000
pleasure and release that you experience when your having your

1750
05:32:10.080 --> 05:32:31.599
feet messaged feels really good now should turn over in

1751
05:32:31.639 --> 05:32:42.479
your mind. Laying on your back, I'm just going to

1752
05:32:42.560 --> 05:32:59.639
start again for your neck area, in your shoulders, just

1753
05:32:59.759 --> 05:33:10.360
to get back in touch with that area. And as

1754
05:33:10.360 --> 05:33:22.000
you move up, I can clean my hands, make them

1755
05:33:22.040 --> 05:33:27.680
more fresh, because now I'm gonna message your face gently,

1756
05:33:32.040 --> 05:33:43.200
starting off with your forehead. Your eyes are closed and

1757
05:33:43.240 --> 05:33:49.080
I can just stretch your eyes a little bit, pushing

1758
05:33:49.200 --> 05:34:06.080
up on your eyebrows, just massaging around just scalp, massaging

1759
05:34:06.279 --> 05:34:16.560
down your cheeks, around your ears, into your chaw, gently

1760
05:34:21.520 --> 05:34:38.560
the side of your neck, your chin m hm, and

1761
05:34:38.840 --> 05:34:46.240
just moving down from your neck down to your chest,

1762
05:34:50.000 --> 05:34:54.080
starting by massage in the very top of your chest

1763
05:34:57.840 --> 05:35:02.360
where the collar bone is give a side to the

1764
05:35:02.439 --> 05:35:14.159
collar bone, and then just message in the hole of

1765
05:35:14.240 --> 05:35:35.119
the chest, moving the chest around. Because it's quite a

1766
05:35:35.240 --> 05:35:40.680
large area, you can move from one side to the next,

1767
05:35:45.040 --> 05:35:51.479
moving my hands underneath pretty much where your arms are

1768
05:35:55.840 --> 05:36:01.119
stretching up, stretching some of them muscles of your back

1769
05:36:01.159 --> 05:36:14.880
in the process, moving up over your chest and they're

1770
05:36:14.880 --> 05:36:31.000
moving down again, and then allowing my hands the just

1771
05:36:31.360 --> 05:36:39.560
massage gently and slide down towards your stomach, starting in

1772
05:36:39.639 --> 05:36:46.240
the middle of your chest, and then gradually my hands

1773
05:36:46.319 --> 05:36:53.040
moving apart and massage in and slide in at the

1774
05:36:53.080 --> 05:37:08.880
same time, moving down to just below your rib cage,

1775
05:37:11.240 --> 05:37:21.759
moving down, then messaging up again, giving your chest all

1776
05:37:21.799 --> 05:37:38.319
the attention that it needs to feel completely relaxed, remembering them.

1777
05:37:38.360 --> 05:37:42.599
I'm also going to be focusing on your sides as well,

1778
05:37:44.080 --> 05:37:50.279
an area that really doesn't get much attention but feels

1779
05:37:50.360 --> 05:38:00.799
really good when it's massaged. Just stroking my hands down

1780
05:38:00.919 --> 05:38:08.000
the sides of your body, just below your arms, all

1781
05:38:08.040 --> 05:38:20.639
the way down to your hips. Now move into your

1782
05:38:20.680 --> 05:38:26.159
stomach area. I'm going to stand one side of you

1783
05:38:26.759 --> 05:38:31.200
like I did when I did your lower back. We

1784
05:38:31.319 --> 05:38:36.840
gonna do a similar process of just stretching the muscles

1785
05:38:36.840 --> 05:38:50.680
from your side, gently massaging from one side to the next,

1786
05:38:52.840 --> 05:38:59.560
move in a whole area from below your ribs or

1787
05:38:59.599 --> 05:39:10.119
the way down to blow your belly button, and then

1788
05:39:10.360 --> 05:39:13.599
move around to the other side of you and repeat

1789
05:39:13.639 --> 05:39:33.560
that process of relaxing deeply, calmly. You feel loose, you

1790
05:39:33.599 --> 05:39:39.880
feel free. And it's something about having your stomach message

1791
05:39:40.759 --> 05:39:47.599
that's different from any other part because we do have

1792
05:39:47.639 --> 05:39:52.119
a tendency of holding a different kind of stress in

1793
05:39:52.159 --> 05:40:01.680
our stomachs that we may not be aware of. As

1794
05:40:01.720 --> 05:40:07.279
I now massage your stomach in front of your stomach,

1795
05:40:09.200 --> 05:40:20.200
making circles around your belly button, and then go the

1796
05:40:20.240 --> 05:40:30.119
other way around, there's a gentleness and a freedom that

1797
05:40:30.319 --> 05:40:41.639
comes from feeling how you're feeling. As I now move

1798
05:40:42.200 --> 05:40:50.799
down the tops of your thighs the muscles massaging them,

1799
05:40:50.840 --> 05:40:54.279
and I can do this two legs at the same time,

1800
05:40:56.439 --> 05:41:05.840
pressing down, massaging deeply those muscles in your thighs at

1801
05:41:05.919 --> 05:41:14.720
front of your thighs, and moving down to your knees,

1802
05:41:15.520 --> 05:41:28.240
gently massaging your knees, sliding down your shins, putting pressure

1803
05:41:28.279 --> 05:41:36.040
on either side of your shin gently softly but firmly,

1804
05:41:40.200 --> 05:41:50.040
moving down to your ankles, stroking the tops of your feet,

1805
05:41:56.040 --> 05:42:01.479
and then with each foot in each hand, just gently

1806
05:42:01.680 --> 05:42:10.040
messaging the whole of the foot, the top, the bottom,

1807
05:42:10.759 --> 05:42:19.080
your heel, your ankle, your toes, messaging every part of

1808
05:42:19.159 --> 05:42:27.520
your feet. It feels so good just to let go

1809
05:42:28.880 --> 05:42:52.759
and enjoy the process, enjoy feeling so deeply relaxed, so

1810
05:42:53.040 --> 05:42:59.439
much comfort, and so many feelings that come just from

1811
05:43:00.119 --> 05:43:16.799
touching your skin. And you can just lie there for

1812
05:43:16.880 --> 05:43:26.200
as long as you choose, enjoying the feeling of deep

1813
05:43:26.479 --> 05:43:55.759
comfort and being massaged. Bite me, enjoy feeling deeply light.

1814
05:44:02.040 --> 05:44:08.639
And all we're gonna do is blow out some candles.

1815
05:44:11.040 --> 05:44:26.119
In your mind, there are going to be a hundred candles,

1816
05:44:33.240 --> 05:44:39.040
and you're going to blow each one out individually, one

1817
05:44:39.400 --> 05:44:46.840
by one, starting at one hundred. As I count down

1818
05:44:52.000 --> 05:44:58.880
all the way down to one, and each time I

1819
05:44:59.119 --> 05:45:08.240
say a number, you can imagine that candle in front

1820
05:45:08.279 --> 05:45:19.279
of you, and I'd like you to actually physically gently

1821
05:45:19.400 --> 05:45:35.439
blow that candle out, just h It's not big blows,

1822
05:45:35.479 --> 05:45:49.360
just a gentle, and that candle will extinguish. And then

1823
05:45:49.520 --> 05:45:56.959
I'll say the next number to move down and you

1824
05:45:57.000 --> 05:46:09.200
can just hkay, blow that one out as well. And

1825
05:46:09.360 --> 05:46:19.279
as we move down the numbers, you'll find yourself feeling

1826
05:46:19.720 --> 05:46:28.560
more and more relaxed. If you need to sleep, you'll

1827
05:46:28.560 --> 05:46:40.520
also find yourself becoming incredibly tired and sleepy. In fact,

1828
05:46:40.599 --> 05:46:50.639
you may struggle to blow out all one hundred of

1829
05:46:50.799 --> 05:47:09.240
these candles. As you feel more and more deeply relaxed,

1830
05:47:15.880 --> 05:47:33.919
more and more deeply tired, And the further you go down,

1831
05:47:36.520 --> 05:47:50.159
the more your mind starts to drift. You may find

1832
05:47:50.520 --> 05:48:05.000
that you stop listening to me after a while. And

1833
05:48:05.159 --> 05:48:09.360
even though there may be background sounds where you are,

1834
05:48:14.200 --> 05:48:20.439
you'll be aware of those sounds at the moment.

1835
05:48:25.360 --> 05:48:25.840
Be me.

1836
05:48:29.360 --> 05:48:44.200
Start to just not even notice them at all, because

1837
05:48:44.279 --> 05:48:57.880
they're unimportant. Where I am, I've got the sounds of

1838
05:48:57.959 --> 05:49:04.959
the birds, there's horrors, the pigeon who likes to say

1839
05:49:05.000 --> 05:49:11.279
hello sometimes, and there's the odd plane that goes by,

1840
05:49:14.319 --> 05:49:27.759
maybe traffic and trains in the distance. But none of

1841
05:49:27.799 --> 05:49:40.040
that scene is important whatsoever. More candles you blow out

1842
05:49:42.040 --> 05:49:58.880
less important. Anything is more candles you blow out. The

1843
05:49:59.040 --> 05:50:14.799
fair the seemed to move away from sounds and from

1844
05:50:15.159 --> 05:50:29.560
general date days. Stuff seems to just move away on

1845
05:50:29.759 --> 05:50:45.919
its own. You feel more calmer with every candle you

1846
05:50:46.080 --> 05:51:05.240
blow out m guiding you to the next number. Do

1847
05:51:05.439 --> 05:51:15.560
you hear me say? And then you blow that candle

1848
05:51:15.599 --> 05:51:46.479
out to So easy, so simple. We're gonna start by

1849
05:51:47.479 --> 05:51:57.560
introducing the first candle, which is a hundred.

1850
05:51:59.360 --> 05:51:59.840
Mm.

1851
05:52:00.400 --> 05:52:15.279
First candles one hundred. When you blow that candle out,

1852
05:52:22.040 --> 05:52:34.799
you'll find immediately a slight change in how you feel,

1853
05:52:39.919 --> 05:52:48.200
as well as a real sense of positivity growing within you,

1854
05:52:54.240 --> 05:53:24.279
relaxation and sleepiness expanding. Starting with one hundred, flow out

1855
05:53:24.360 --> 05:54:26.520

Two can't.

1889
06:50:53.759 --> 06:51:00.119
Let go of all of those thoughts, worries conceit and

1890
06:51:00.639 --> 06:51:07.360
about the past, thoughts about the future, and even things

1891
06:51:07.439 --> 06:51:11.599
you've been thinking about today. Just let it all go

1892
06:51:15.040 --> 06:51:22.720
because none of it is useful in this moment. This

1893
06:51:23.000 --> 06:51:42.840
is your opportunity to just focus on feeling relaxed, allowing

1894
06:51:42.959 --> 06:51:50.919
yourself to get in touch with that natural sense of

1895
06:51:51.119 --> 06:51:59.720
peace that we all have within us. It's available for everyone.

1896
06:52:00.919 --> 06:52:05.799
It just sometimes takes a little bit of effort to

1897
06:52:06.000 --> 06:52:12.040
set up the right time and place in order for

1898
06:52:12.159 --> 06:52:19.080
you to just let go. Because when you do decide

1899
06:52:21.479 --> 06:52:26.799
to let go and relax, that's what your body starts

1900
06:52:26.880 --> 06:52:37.119
to do because you've chosen, You've chosen to just allow

1901
06:52:37.240 --> 06:52:43.080
your body to unwind and your mind starts to slow down.

1902
06:52:46.439 --> 06:52:50.840
And it's a nice feeling. It's a nice feeling at

1903
06:52:50.880 --> 06:52:56.799
the beginning, just to know that you have chosen to

1904
06:52:56.959 --> 06:53:06.000
decide to relax deeply, and because you've made that decision,

1905
06:53:07.799 --> 06:53:14.840
your body will just follow suit. Because sometimes all the

1906
06:53:15.000 --> 06:53:19.720
muscles in your body need is just permission from you

1907
06:53:20.799 --> 06:53:29.279
to relax. Because so often we're busy, we're going from

1908
06:53:29.360 --> 06:53:33.360
here to there, we're walking around and we're doing stuff,

1909
06:53:35.680 --> 06:53:42.000
and the body doesn't have any time or space to

1910
06:53:42.200 --> 06:53:49.159
really relax deeply. So it kind of waits for you

1911
06:53:49.479 --> 06:53:58.639
to lead the way, waits for your permission. And when

1912
06:53:58.680 --> 06:54:05.400
you do give your permission, when you give to say so,

1913
06:54:05.680 --> 06:54:13.439
when you say okay, it's time for your body to

1914
06:54:13.639 --> 06:54:22.360
let go completely and relax totally, your body just follows.

1915
06:54:25.360 --> 06:54:30.799
It's like a breath of relief. Ah good, I can

1916
06:54:30.880 --> 06:54:37.919
now relax. That feeling at the end of a day,

1917
06:54:37.959 --> 06:54:41.680
of a very physical day that you may experience in

1918
06:54:41.799 --> 06:54:45.360
the past. But you get home and you just sit

1919
06:54:45.560 --> 06:54:49.439
down on a chair, maybe you kick your shoes off

1920
06:54:49.560 --> 06:54:55.360
and not ah, feels so nice. Know that you don't

1921
06:54:56.040 --> 06:54:59.360
have to get up again for a little while at

1922
06:54:59.479 --> 06:55:03.159
least if you choose, you can just sit there for

1923
06:55:03.319 --> 06:55:16.639
maybe an hour to feels blissful. And just by sitting

1924
06:55:16.799 --> 06:55:22.000
down like that, your body knows that it's time to relax.

1925
06:55:23.639 --> 06:55:29.479
Your body has been given permission from you because it's

1926
06:55:29.560 --> 06:55:39.759
a mindset in your mind, you're prepared to let go

1927
06:55:39.919 --> 06:55:50.000
of everything and just completely allow all the stress of

1928
06:55:50.119 --> 06:56:02.040
your body to evaporate. Any tensions can just gradually vanish.

1929
06:56:08.520 --> 06:56:20.240
It's almost like magic, really, because that sense of relaxation

1930
06:56:20.560 --> 06:56:26.520
in your body is a very natural state. It's not

1931
06:56:26.720 --> 06:56:31.560
something unusual. It may feel unusual when you first start

1932
06:56:31.639 --> 06:56:36.119
to relax if you if you haven't really spent a

1933
06:56:36.200 --> 06:56:40.439
lot of time focusing and giving yourself this space to

1934
06:56:40.639 --> 06:56:45.919
let go completely and relax, and they seem are most alien,

1935
06:56:47.799 --> 06:56:53.680
but it isn't. It's actually the most natural thing in

1936
06:56:53.759 --> 06:57:04.000
the world to let go completely, to relax totally, the

1937
06:57:04.159 --> 06:57:15.119
most natural thing in the world to allow yourself to

1938
06:57:15.400 --> 06:57:23.159
feel really calm in your mind. And it is almost

1939
06:57:23.799 --> 06:57:30.880
like a literal unwinding. It's like you press a button

1940
06:57:33.520 --> 06:57:39.959
and all the tension just releases, and it's like a wheel,

1941
06:57:40.319 --> 06:57:44.560
like a cog, like the inside of a clock, just unwinding.

1942
06:57:45.200 --> 06:57:49.080
And it's almost like you could see the little wind

1943
06:57:49.240 --> 06:57:55.040
up knob that's used just going the opposite way that

1944
06:57:55.159 --> 06:58:01.080
you choose to wind it up, and the energy that

1945
06:58:01.319 --> 06:58:11.520
premetic stress for energy gradually winding down, losing its power,

1946
06:58:12.799 --> 06:58:20.240
losing its strength. As a sense of relaxation becomes stronger

1947
06:58:21.439 --> 06:58:30.959
and deeper, and you may find a the more relaxed

1948
06:58:32.360 --> 06:58:43.319
you feel, that your mind starts to wonder, maybe just

1949
06:58:43.400 --> 06:58:47.639
seem to stop listening to me for a while. Your

1950
06:58:47.720 --> 06:58:53.240
mind goes somewhere else. And then you realize you're listening

1951
06:58:53.319 --> 06:58:59.000
to me again, and that is just your mind drifting

1952
06:58:59.360 --> 06:59:09.240
to sleep, which is quite natural, because sometimes when we're

1953
06:59:11.799 --> 06:59:17.200
stressed and tense, we're not may I actually be aware

1954
06:59:17.520 --> 06:59:23.840
of what we need, what we physically or emotionally need

1955
06:59:24.319 --> 06:59:32.080
in this moment. But when you allow your body and

1956
06:59:32.319 --> 06:59:43.439
mind to relax completely and you let go of all thoughts, concerns, worries, ideas,

1957
06:59:44.919 --> 06:59:49.439
all letting them go allow them to drop onto the floor.

1958
06:59:54.759 --> 07:00:00.759
When you start to get in touch with the feelings

1959
07:00:00.919 --> 07:00:12.599
of such relaxation, this feels so nice to be in

1960
07:00:12.840 --> 07:00:19.599
touch with the calmness of the different body parts as

1961
07:00:19.759 --> 07:00:35.400
they become looser and looser. Even your breathing seems easier

1962
07:00:36.080 --> 07:00:45.279
and more natural, effortless, as that cool air enters through

1963
07:00:45.319 --> 07:00:54.639
your mouth or nose into your lungs, breathing in comforts

1964
07:00:54.840 --> 07:01:03.159
and relaxation, and then just breathing out any excess remain

1965
07:01:03.360 --> 07:01:11.599
intentional stress from every part of your body and mind.

1966
07:01:15.159 --> 07:01:19.720
And as you start to focus on your mind, maybe

1967
07:01:20.279 --> 07:01:27.759
you notice that things have come to a standstill or

1968
07:01:27.919 --> 07:01:37.000
maybe just much much lower than before, because your mind

1969
07:01:37.240 --> 07:01:47.720
is not really needed when listening to my voice, which

1970
07:01:47.840 --> 07:01:54.279
allows your mind to relax just as deeply as your body,

1971
07:01:57.040 --> 07:02:05.279
and that's synchronicity between the relaxation of your body and

1972
07:02:08.040 --> 07:02:21.840
relaxation of your mind. Let you know that feeling completely calm, loose,

1973
07:02:22.159 --> 07:02:36.400
and relaxed really is a great healing experience fear and

1974
07:02:36.639 --> 07:02:49.159
has so many positive benefits for your body, mind, and

1975
07:02:49.279 --> 07:02:57.959
your life. To be able to let go everything and

1976
07:02:58.159 --> 07:03:08.560
to relax completely in all parts of your body and mind.

1977
07:03:10.919 --> 07:03:19.520
Even your bones are relaxed, all your muscles are rexed,

1978
07:03:26.319 --> 07:03:30.680
even the skin that covers your body.

1979
07:03:33.240 --> 07:03:34.159
Is relaxed.

1980
07:03:39.319 --> 07:03:40.680
Every hair.

1981
07:03:43.639 --> 07:03:44.200
That you have.

1982
07:03:45.959 --> 07:04:03.520
Is also deeply relaxed. And your brain really start to

1983
07:04:03.759 --> 07:04:05.639
feel the benefit.

1984
07:04:07.119 --> 07:04:07.479
Of this.

1985
07:04:09.080 --> 07:04:21.240
Healing relaxation. And then as you focus on the inside

1986
07:04:21.400 --> 07:04:26.639
of your scalp where your brain is, you can start

1987
07:04:27.200 --> 07:04:41.680
to realize and notice the benefits of your brain relaxing deeply. Then,

1988
07:04:41.759 --> 07:04:53.159
as your brain continues to relax sends those messages to

1989
07:04:53.959 --> 07:05:01.319
the rest of your body and your mind to re

1990
07:05:02.360 --> 07:05:24.159
relax even more deeply, relaxing more completely, letting go of

1991
07:05:24.840 --> 07:05:36.560
any remaining force or concense, allowed them just to drop

1992
07:05:36.799 --> 07:05:43.720
onto the floor because they are no longer necessary in

1993
07:05:44.400 --> 07:05:55.520
this moment, In this moment of deep relaxation and calmness,

1994
07:05:57.880 --> 07:06:24.520
filling your brain with deep concentrated heathing, calming, relaxing every

1995
07:06:25.159 --> 07:06:42.319
part of your brain feething so loose and comfortable, so

1996
07:06:43.560 --> 07:06:58.200
relaxed and peaceful. Your brain feels so light and so

1997
07:06:58.599 --> 07:07:10.400
healthy in a sense of deep deep comfort. Really does

1998
07:07:11.599 --> 07:07:25.840
allow you to enjoy those ever increasing sensations of comfort

1999
07:07:27.520 --> 07:07:40.319
that are spreading throughout your body, relaxing each and every

2000
07:07:40.680 --> 07:07:42.360
muscle of your body.

2001
07:07:44.520 --> 07:07:44.599
E.

2002
07:07:46.639 --> 07:08:00.400
Deeper and deeper, much more deeper than for.

2003
07:08:04.240 --> 07:08:06.080
Much more.

2004
07:08:07.880 --> 07:08:21.599
Comfort spreading through your body in your mind, be so

2005
07:08:23.520 --> 07:08:39.560

your body and mind deep and deeper, such comfort spreading

2014
07:10:45.439 --> 07:10:56.919
and sinking deeper into a muscle of your body. So

2015
07:10:57.200 --> 07:11:21.840
you feel amazing, so relaxed, so peaceful, sola and peaceful,

2016
07:11:25.080 --> 07:11:39.360
letting go every I'm gonna do a body scan, focusing

2017
07:11:39.959 --> 07:11:45.599
on firstly how you feel in your body. Not trying

2018
07:11:45.680 --> 07:11:52.040
to change how you feel, not trying to relax, not

2019
07:11:52.240 --> 07:11:57.799
trying to move away from any discomfort or stress or tension.

2020
07:11:59.080 --> 07:12:05.639
Just accept it. Observing and accepting how you feel in

2021
07:12:05.759 --> 07:12:12.000
the different parts of your body, just allowing yourself to

2022
07:12:12.119 --> 07:12:19.520
be exactly as you are, to notice, to get in

2023
07:12:19.680 --> 07:12:31.759
touch with how you actually feel in this moment. I'm

2024
07:12:31.759 --> 07:12:42.720
going to start off by focusing on your hands. Just

2025
07:12:42.880 --> 07:12:50.799
be aware of your hands. I'd like you to move

2026
07:12:50.919 --> 07:12:56.080
your hands around, just maybe move your fingers a little bit.

2027
07:12:58.520 --> 07:13:04.720
I've been enclosing your hands very gently, just so that

2028
07:13:04.959 --> 07:13:12.720
you can get in touch with how your hands and

2029
07:13:12.919 --> 07:13:33.880
your fingers fell, very very slow movements. Focusing now on

2030
07:13:34.080 --> 07:13:41.159
your feet, and if you can just do kind of

2031
07:13:41.200 --> 07:13:46.119
an equivalent with your feet is you've just done with

2032
07:13:46.319 --> 07:13:54.919
your hands, Maybe turn in your ankles, moving your feet around,

2033
07:13:56.919 --> 07:14:07.360
moving your toes gently but only very gently and very slowly,

2034
07:14:10.319 --> 07:14:25.720
noticing how your feet feel in this moment. Focusing now

2035
07:14:25.959 --> 07:14:33.000
and your eyes, and I like you to just focus

2036
07:14:33.119 --> 07:14:38.599
on your eyelids. Maybe you can open and close your

2037
07:14:38.680 --> 07:14:43.159
eyes a couple of times to really get in touch

2038
07:14:43.560 --> 07:14:46.959
with how you feel when you do close your eyes.

2039
07:14:49.119 --> 07:14:55.520
The muscle changes in your eyes when you do close them,

2040
07:14:58.360 --> 07:15:04.759
maybe raising your eye, it stretches the tops of your eyes,

2041
07:15:08.000 --> 07:15:16.400
perhaps squinting your eyes, scrunching up your eyes, just so

2042
07:15:16.560 --> 07:15:26.360
you can really again touch with all aspects of how

2043
07:15:28.119 --> 07:15:45.200
your eyes feel. Right now, now focus in on your thighs,

2044
07:15:47.560 --> 07:15:51.799
and it just starts you to gently tense your thighs,

2045
07:15:53.200 --> 07:16:03.000
just very very gently, just enough so you can become

2046
07:16:04.599 --> 07:16:15.680
more achuned to the physical sensation of your upper legs,

2047
07:16:17.919 --> 07:16:21.119
the front of your thighs, and the backs of your thighs.

2048
07:16:25.639 --> 07:16:45.040
Noticing and observing how your thighs fear. Right now, moving

2049
07:16:45.240 --> 07:16:53.680
your focus to the back of your neck, just noticing

2050
07:16:53.880 --> 07:16:59.880
the back of your neck the muscles, and of course

2051
07:17:00.119 --> 07:17:04.360
they lead to the side of your neck. They also

2052
07:17:04.639 --> 07:17:09.520
lead to the top of your back, which lead to

2053
07:17:09.599 --> 07:17:15.119
your shoulders. So as your focus on the back of

2054
07:17:15.200 --> 07:17:22.599
your neck, maybe you can move your head gently upwards

2055
07:17:23.759 --> 07:17:29.720
as if you're looking up, Maybe moving your head down

2056
07:17:31.159 --> 07:17:37.720
as if you're looking down. Perhaps moving your head side

2057
07:17:37.959 --> 07:17:48.840
to side, right to left, but only very slowly and

2058
07:17:49.400 --> 07:17:57.639
very gently. I'm not trying to force anything. It has

2059
07:17:57.799 --> 07:18:06.919
to be very very gentle, just so you can.

2060
07:18:08.479 --> 07:18:10.159
Be more.

2061
07:18:11.720 --> 07:18:21.159
In touch with the feelings, with the sensations, the physical

2062
07:18:22.520 --> 07:18:31.799
sensations of how the back of your neck feels. Right now,

2063
07:18:39.360 --> 07:18:47.360
as we now focus on the tops of your arms,

2064
07:18:49.720 --> 07:18:54.560
the parts where your biceps and your triceps are between

2065
07:18:54.599 --> 07:19:03.360
your elbow and your shoulders. Focus on those parts, the

2066
07:19:03.560 --> 07:19:10.560
tops of your arms. You may like to just tense them,

2067
07:19:11.439 --> 07:19:22.400
but very very gently and slowly. See you're not straining

2068
07:19:22.759 --> 07:19:33.479
or put in any pressure whatsoever on your arms. It's

2069
07:19:33.720 --> 07:19:40.680
just so that you can gain more of a sense

2070
07:19:40.919 --> 07:19:51.400
of how your upper arms are feeling in this moment,

2071
07:19:54.400 --> 07:20:05.159
and just noticing as you gently, very gently and slowly

2072
07:20:06.919 --> 07:20:17.880
tighten the muscles and then let go. Notice how the

2073
07:20:18.080 --> 07:20:32.840
tops of your arms feel right now. As a now

2074
07:20:33.520 --> 07:20:43.759
focus on your stomach, the area the lower abdomen area

2075
07:20:44.439 --> 07:20:52.840
below your belly button, moving all the way down to

2076
07:20:52.959 --> 07:21:03.560
your hips, just above your grind. Maybe you're able to

2077
07:21:05.000 --> 07:21:17.919
tense these muscles in the area very very gently and slowly,

2078
07:21:23.599 --> 07:21:27.759
if that's a difficult thing to do, and maybe you

2079
07:21:27.880 --> 07:21:38.360
can just move your body, pushing your stomach up, maybe

2080
07:21:38.520 --> 07:21:41.919
moving a little bit to the side using your hips,

2081
07:21:44.080 --> 07:21:52.240
just so you can get more in tune with how

2082
07:21:52.439 --> 07:22:04.799
you're lower aptomen area is to feeling in this moment,

2083
07:22:11.400 --> 07:22:33.959
just noticing the physical sensations or your lower abdomen as

2084
07:22:34.000 --> 07:22:46.919
you move your attention to your mouth, notice in your

2085
07:22:47.159 --> 07:22:58.040
lips and inside your mouth, your teeth, your guns, your tongue,

2086
07:23:07.639 --> 07:23:16.040
Just noticing how your tongue and your mouth feels. And

2087
07:23:16.240 --> 07:23:23.639
it may help by moving your tongue around your mouth,

2088
07:23:25.159 --> 07:23:31.360
moving it to your left, maybe pressing it gently against

2089
07:23:32.880 --> 07:23:37.360
the side of your mouth, and then to the right,

2090
07:23:38.919 --> 07:23:46.000
gently to the side of your mouth, perhaps pressing up

2091
07:23:46.119 --> 07:23:52.279
against the top of your mouth, and then down gently

2092
07:23:54.240 --> 07:24:05.119
against the bottom of your mouth. Aways very slowly and

2093
07:24:05.240 --> 07:24:19.919
a very very gentle so that you can be aware

2094
07:24:25.240 --> 07:24:47.439
of how you feel in your mouth area. Now I'm

2095
07:24:47.520 --> 07:25:03.000
going to focus on your wrists and I'm going to

2096
07:25:03.159 --> 07:25:12.000
ask you to maybe just rotate your wrists by moving

2097
07:25:12.080 --> 07:25:22.520
your hands in a circular motion very gently and slowly,

2098
07:25:25.319 --> 07:25:43.360
just so that you can feel the sensations that you

2099
07:25:43.880 --> 07:26:00.119
are currently experiencing in your rests. Perhaps move in your hands.

2100
07:26:01.560 --> 07:26:03.040
Up and down.

2101
07:26:05.400 --> 07:26:32.759
Again very very gently and slowly, very gentzl and slow.

2102
07:26:46.200 --> 07:26:56.919
As we now start to observe, you'll lower it back

2103
07:27:02.560 --> 07:27:12.680
the bad part is just above of your hips where

2104
07:27:12.720 --> 07:27:25.319
your coxis are a whole area which also really does

2105
07:27:25.520 --> 07:27:32.560
include the sides of your body, because those muscles are

2106
07:27:32.880 --> 07:27:43.400
very much connected as those muscles also move into your

2107
07:27:44.159 --> 07:27:52.639
hip aia connecting to your buttcks the sides of your hips,

2108
07:28:01.159 --> 07:28:09.479
and if you're physically able to do so, maybe you

2109
07:28:09.639 --> 07:28:23.439
can very gently just movebody ever so slightly, very slowly,

2110
07:28:26.520 --> 07:28:44.479
some side to side, just enough to gauge how you

2111
07:28:44.799 --> 07:29:01.799
feel in your lower back. Perhaps it cautive even move

2112
07:29:02.040 --> 07:29:17.040
your lips gently up and down gently slowly, in order to.

2113
07:29:21.520 --> 07:29:23.119
Be in touch.

2114
07:29:25.439 --> 07:29:48.840
With the physical sensations of your law back. As we

2115
07:29:49.159 --> 07:29:50.200
now move.

2116
07:29:54.599 --> 07:29:56.040
Your attention.

2117
07:29:59.479 --> 07:30:07.200
To your jaw, that area from your chin all the

2118
07:30:07.279 --> 07:30:14.639
way up so near where your ears are, the hole

2119
07:30:15.040 --> 07:30:29.919
of your jaw, you can just if it's okay to

2120
07:30:30.119 --> 07:30:40.759
do so, gently open your mouth, not wide, no stretching,

2121
07:30:42.080 --> 07:30:55.680
just very gently and slowly opening your mouth thing closing

2122
07:30:55.799 --> 07:31:16.680
your mouth very gently and slowly, so you can be

2123
07:31:16.919 --> 07:31:58.159
in touch with how your jaw feels. Now. Noticing now

2124
07:32:01.040 --> 07:32:13.919
your chest area, and you don't need to do anything

2125
07:32:15.880 --> 07:32:22.759
to move your chest because it moves every time you breathe,

2126
07:32:27.880 --> 07:32:41.080
and it moves very gently and slowly automatically with each

2127
07:32:41.599 --> 07:32:56.599
breath you take, as you focus on how your chest

2128
07:33:01.759 --> 07:33:42.520
fiel when you breathe, move in your focus to your forms,

2129
07:33:45.119 --> 07:34:04.080
your elbows. Maybe you're able to very gently, slowly tense

2130
07:34:04.439 --> 07:34:12.279
the muscles in your forearms, and when you do that,

2131
07:34:12.759 --> 07:34:36.319
you can feel your elbows as well. Very gently and slowly,

2132
07:34:44.799 --> 07:35:05.720
gently and softly obsad your forearms and del bas.

2133
07:35:16.000 --> 07:35:16.040
No.

2134
07:35:24.319 --> 07:35:38.279
I think you focus the rest of your back, your

2135
07:35:38.479 --> 07:35:47.479
upper back in the middle, the middle.

2136
07:35:47.279 --> 07:35:48.040
Of your back.

2137
07:35:59.720 --> 07:36:10.240
They gained this part of your body moves. Also every

2138
07:36:10.680 --> 07:36:26.639
time you breathe. You may not notice that. Usually les

2139
07:36:26.799 --> 07:36:33.520
you observe your upper back in the middle of your back,

2140
07:36:37.240 --> 07:37:33.000
you can really feel that gentle and slow movement. Moving

2141
07:37:33.200 --> 07:37:46.240
your focus into your hip area, your buttees, your brain.

2142
07:37:48.959 --> 07:38:23.759
There's muscles and those bones in your midsection. Just noticing

2143
07:38:26.159 --> 07:38:46.439
how your hips feel. Right now, you can very very

2144
07:38:47.080 --> 07:39:01.840
gently move your hips, maybe side to side, airy gently

2145
07:39:02.080 --> 07:39:54.400
and slow, very gently, softly and slowly, everything starts to

2146
07:39:58.080 --> 07:40:10.040
slow down, including the thoughts in your mind and your

2147
07:40:10.119 --> 07:40:20.080
mind itself just starts to gradually. It doesn't have to

2148
07:40:20.159 --> 07:40:28.000
be instant, but just gradually starting to It's almost like

2149
07:40:28.319 --> 07:40:39.599
time is storing chin. It's a slower pace to maybe

2150
07:40:39.880 --> 07:40:44.959
what you're used to in your day to day life.

2151
07:40:48.119 --> 07:41:15.080
It's a slower movement of energy, very small movements which

2152
07:41:15.200 --> 07:41:23.319
make up the larger movements, which is always the case. Now,

2153
07:41:23.400 --> 07:41:27.919
when you move your hand, it might seem like it's

2154
07:41:28.040 --> 07:41:33.759
one movement, but it's lots of minute different muscles moving

2155
07:41:35.959 --> 07:41:44.919
in accordance with each other. And what happens in this

2156
07:41:46.840 --> 07:42:01.439
space that we're sharing is we move from that big

2157
07:42:06.080 --> 07:42:23.119
movement into those smaller movements. Starting to focus on how

2158
07:42:23.240 --> 07:42:30.520
your body feels, not just as a whole, not just oh,

2159
07:42:30.560 --> 07:42:34.840
i'm feel in this way. I'm feeling stressed or tense,

2160
07:42:35.080 --> 07:42:40.479
or I'm feeling relaxed and calm. I'm feeling this way,

2161
07:42:40.639 --> 07:42:47.520
I'm feeling that way. Starting to notice that your body

2162
07:42:51.840 --> 07:43:01.479
begins to present to you small feelings around your body,

2163
07:43:08.000 --> 07:43:20.119
small physical sensations in your legs, whether pleasurable or not.

2164
07:43:25.520 --> 07:43:34.560
Maybe resisting the temptation to label them or to judge

2165
07:43:34.639 --> 07:43:42.119
them those feelings, just thinking them, thinking about them is

2166
07:43:42.279 --> 07:43:59.200
just being neutral, just feelings, not being particularly concerned, but

2167
07:43:59.439 --> 07:44:13.880
just the criticing what your body is telling you, the

2168
07:44:14.040 --> 07:44:20.319
feelings in your arms, instead of feeling the hole of

2169
07:44:20.439 --> 07:44:30.040
the arm. Maybe notice those individual feelings for all those

2170
07:44:30.119 --> 07:44:41.919
different muscles and the skin, the hairs of your arms,

2171
07:44:43.880 --> 07:44:57.880
all the internal parts of your arms, the veins, the bones,

2172
07:45:00.799 --> 07:45:06.799
just being aware of maybe your elbow on your right

2173
07:45:07.040 --> 07:45:17.599
arm has a certain feeling. Maybe your left wrist also

2174
07:45:17.919 --> 07:45:40.360
has its own individual physical sensation. What about your.

2175
07:45:40.360 --> 07:45:54.000
Forearm on your right arm, your right forearm, There may

2176
07:45:54.119 --> 07:45:54.919
not be any.

2177
07:45:55.279 --> 07:46:02.520
Particular feeling that you could even and give a name to,

2178
07:46:06.279 --> 07:46:10.599
may not feel like anything other than just a feeling.

2179
07:46:11.520 --> 07:46:23.599
You know, it's there. The feelings in your shoulders. Perhaps

2180
07:46:23.680 --> 07:46:27.400
your shoulders when you think about them, kind of almost

2181
07:46:27.599 --> 07:46:34.279
like they're the same, you know, the same feeling, almost

2182
07:46:34.439 --> 07:46:37.240
like you both of your shoulders are just one thing.

2183
07:46:39.040 --> 07:46:50.119
Of course they're not. And when you focus on your

2184
07:46:50.240 --> 07:46:58.439
left shoulder and then on your right shoulder, maybe find

2185
07:46:58.599 --> 07:47:04.000
that you move the muscles a little bit, maybe tense

2186
07:47:04.119 --> 07:47:29.680
the muscles gently, noticing the difference in each shoulder. Your

2187
07:47:29.759 --> 07:47:45.639
lower back, the left side of your lower back and

2188
07:47:46.479 --> 07:47:57.159
the right side of your lower back of course that

2189
07:47:57.360 --> 07:48:10.360
connection to your buttocks into your hips, and also moving

2190
07:48:10.599 --> 07:48:24.159
up into the middle of your back. And sometimes like

2191
07:48:24.360 --> 07:48:29.080
right now, actually when I focus on their part. When

2192
07:48:29.119 --> 07:48:33.439
I focused on my buttocks and then I focused on

2193
07:48:35.119 --> 07:48:37.759
the middle of my back, I almost felt like the

2194
07:48:37.919 --> 07:48:42.479
muscles in my lower back were being stretched very gently,

2195
07:48:47.240 --> 07:48:52.520
just stretched a little bit. Even though I wasn't doing

2196
07:48:52.599 --> 07:49:01.840
anything to try to stretch lower back, it just seemed

2197
07:49:01.840 --> 07:49:14.119
to happen. The feeling of very gently stretching your lower

2198
07:49:14.200 --> 07:49:40.599
back comes along. I have feeling in your chest, just

2199
07:49:40.919 --> 07:49:54.639
noticing what sensations you are experiencing in your chest right now.

2200
07:50:07.119 --> 07:50:10.880
And there's so much of the chest. Obviously, there's the

2201
07:50:11.040 --> 07:50:15.200
collar bone leading to the chest. You've got the chest bone,

2202
07:50:18.479 --> 07:50:26.279
You've got the muscles in your chest. Of course, if

2203
07:50:26.279 --> 07:50:34.439
you're female, there's possibly the breasts. If you're male, you've

2204
07:50:34.479 --> 07:50:41.080
got the different well why not that different these days.

2205
07:50:40.880 --> 07:50:40.959
But.

2206
07:50:43.119 --> 07:50:48.520
There may be more muscles at the top of the chest,

2207
07:50:51.880 --> 07:50:56.159
but at the side underneath it's pretty much the same.

2208
07:50:56.959 --> 07:51:00.240
Whether you're a man or a woman. There's muscles there, yeah,

2209
07:51:01.360 --> 07:51:06.479
muscles that stretch out to your back, as well as

2210
07:51:06.599 --> 07:51:14.959
breast tissue which stretches and moves into your back. To

2211
07:51:15.159 --> 07:51:34.520
just being aware of your chest, being with whatever feeling

2212
07:51:34.720 --> 07:51:54.520
there is in your chest. When I noticed that, I

2213
07:51:54.680 --> 07:52:02.599
focus on my chest I feel it in my back

2214
07:52:02.799 --> 07:52:06.560
and my upper back. I mean, I guess the obvious

2215
07:52:06.720 --> 07:52:14.360
reason would be because you know, I'll breathe in in

2216
07:52:17.080 --> 07:52:20.240
then it stretches my chest and my back at the

2217
07:52:20.279 --> 07:52:41.000
same time. It feels it feels okay, it doesn't feel

2218
07:52:43.720 --> 07:52:47.959
I got a little bit of pain in my right chest,

2219
07:52:50.240 --> 07:52:53.479
a little bit not pain, but a little discomfort, maybe

2220
07:52:55.279 --> 07:53:03.400
stiffness possibly, I don't know. I notice my shoulders are

2221
07:53:03.439 --> 07:53:12.360
also wanting to flex for some reason. I think that's

2222
07:53:12.400 --> 07:53:20.759
probably part of my upper back, that connection between my

2223
07:53:20.880 --> 07:53:25.599
shoulders my opper back, because I can move my shoulders

2224
07:53:25.680 --> 07:53:32.840
and stretch the muscles in my back, moving the shoulders

2225
07:53:32.919 --> 07:53:39.080
backwards or up, which then moves I think it's the

2226
07:53:39.240 --> 07:54:00.119
scapulous in your back. It feels quite nice. Actually, A

2227
07:54:00.200 --> 07:54:03.720
good thing about this is you can, if you want to,

2228
07:54:04.439 --> 07:54:19.360
you can just flex or stimulate the various muscles in

2229
07:54:19.479 --> 07:54:25.159
your body gently in order to get more of the

2230
07:54:25.360 --> 07:54:40.279
sense of how they feel. And when you're relaxing. When

2231
07:54:40.319 --> 07:54:44.360
you do tense and muscle and you let it go

2232
07:54:44.720 --> 07:54:53.479
and you let it relax, it relaxes way more than

2233
07:54:53.520 --> 07:55:03.400
it would normally. But you have to to feel that

2234
07:55:03.479 --> 07:55:07.319
you're able to do that, there's no point doing it

2235
07:55:07.520 --> 07:55:13.360
if there's an issue with the per part of your body.

2236
07:55:16.840 --> 07:55:23.400
You need to be gentle with yourself at all times

2237
07:55:26.040 --> 07:55:37.560
when relaxing deeply. It's important to be kind to yourself

2238
07:55:45.119 --> 07:55:53.599
as you notice your mind. How much has your mind

2239
07:55:53.919 --> 07:56:21.159
slowed down since we started this red How came and

2240
07:56:21.400 --> 07:56:32.720
peaceful is your mind right now? We have nothing to

2241
07:56:32.840 --> 07:56:42.720
think about and just my voice to listen to, because

2242
07:56:42.840 --> 07:56:53.759
you know, the intention behind this recording is relaxation. At

2243
07:56:53.799 --> 07:57:00.240
the very least, for you to feel more relaxed at

2244
07:57:00.279 --> 07:57:03.639
the end of the recording than you did at the beginning,

2245
07:57:08.799 --> 07:57:17.479
at the very least, for your mind to slow down

2246
07:57:20.319 --> 07:57:32.520
because your body continues to relax, because that's.

2247
07:57:32.599 --> 07:57:33.159
What you.

2248
07:57:34.759 --> 07:57:44.279
Want to happen. That's what you expect.

2249
07:57:47.880 --> 07:57:48.439
To happen.

2250
07:57:54.560 --> 07:58:13.000
For relaxation to fill your body, maybe calm your mind

2251
07:58:14.520 --> 07:58:22.000
to the point of boredom when you start maybe to

2252
07:58:27.639 --> 07:59:09.400
drift away. Drifting it's almost as if you're moving further

2253
07:59:09.599 --> 07:59:17.840
away from your body in your mind, just leaving that there,

2254
07:59:25.799 --> 07:59:30.080
kind of liking it an escape pod in the spaceship

2255
07:59:30.479 --> 07:59:33.880
and movie, a space movie. You know, when they get

2256
07:59:33.919 --> 07:59:39.880
into a little part in it. Since the month far

2257
07:59:40.119 --> 08:00:09.119
away from the spaceship, safe to dream, continue to relax,

2258
08:00:29.360 --> 08:00:50.240
drifting so slow.

2259
08:01:03.040 --> 08:01:03.919
And be so.

2260
08:01:20.200 --> 08:01:57.799
So and pea so, and focusing on.

2261
08:01:57.959 --> 08:02:01.119
That feeling.

2262
08:02:06.240 --> 08:02:16.680
Of those individual parts of your body that are relaxing.

2263
08:02:18.639 --> 08:02:19.360
One by one.

2264
08:02:27.040 --> 08:02:27.520
You may.

2265
08:02:29.279 --> 08:02:42.959
Find that every now and then you realize that you

2266
08:02:43.119 --> 08:02:51.759
aren't listening to my voice because your mind started to

2267
08:02:52.000 --> 08:03:07.240
imagine something different, maybe started to almost move into some

2268
08:03:07.560 --> 08:03:15.959
kind of a dreamy state, and then you become aware

2269
08:03:16.200 --> 08:03:25.400
of my voice again. And even though you may want

2270
08:03:25.599 --> 08:03:30.520
to focus on my voice, you may also wish to

2271
08:03:33.080 --> 08:03:44.639
allow your mind to just drift naturally into that space

2272
08:03:44.919 --> 08:04:08.919
of comfort and safety. As you feel more comfort spreading

2273
08:04:09.319 --> 08:04:22.040
through your body like a warm blanket covering you gently,

2274
08:04:26.080 --> 08:04:44.200
keeping your body at just the perfect temperature, and even

2275
08:04:44.319 --> 08:04:56.360
if you can hear background sounds, they just don't seem

2276
08:04:56.479 --> 08:05:13.240
to matter anymore. There's that sense of peace spreads through

2277
08:05:13.360 --> 08:05:27.000
your mind like a gentle breeze, yet strong enough to

2278
08:05:27.200 --> 08:05:43.439
blow away all negativity, strong enough to remove from your

2279
08:05:43.560 --> 08:05:50.040
mind any anxiety or stress.

2280
08:05:51.680 --> 08:06:02.639
That was there before, and blow away.

2281
08:06:02.599 --> 08:06:17.119
Any other thoughts or feelings that just don't fit with

2282
08:06:17.799 --> 08:06:42.840
the sense relaxation that is feeling your body and your mind.

2283
08:06:57.439 --> 08:07:03.080
Unless you focus on your mind the count down from

2284
08:07:03.919 --> 08:07:09.560
ten down to one, and with each number you hear,

2285
08:07:12.720 --> 08:07:38.599
your mind will become slightly more relaxed, just just slightly.

2286
08:07:41.200 --> 08:07:41.240
So.

2287
08:07:41.400 --> 08:07:48.439
From ten down to nine, just a slight movement. From

2288
08:07:48.599 --> 08:08:00.880
nine down to eight, just another small change in how

2289
08:08:01.000 --> 08:08:14.040
you feel. Eight down to seven, that feeling is a gap,

2290
08:08:14.959 --> 08:08:20.520
almost like a gap that starts to get wider, the

2291
08:08:20.680 --> 08:08:28.919
gap between those feelings that you used to have in

2292
08:08:29.040 --> 08:08:37.959
your mind compared to the feelings you have there growing now,

2293
08:08:39.680 --> 08:08:49.520
feelings of comfort and security and confidence, and that gap

2294
08:08:49.919 --> 08:08:56.040
becomes wider. Eight down to seven, seven down to six.

2295
08:09:00.080 --> 08:09:06.279
You get to five, your mind will start to have

2296
08:09:06.439 --> 08:09:19.959
a certain physical sensation, almost like there's a magnet outside

2297
08:09:20.080 --> 08:09:26.439
of your head, sucking detension and the stress and any

2298
08:09:26.560 --> 08:09:34.080
remaining feelings that you don't want, sucking them out through

2299
08:09:34.159 --> 08:09:44.720
your skull. And in down to four you can start

2300
08:09:44.880 --> 08:09:53.880
to really experience that sense of not just emptiness, but space,

2301
08:09:59.240 --> 08:10:06.840
a place full of fresh air, the place where you

2302
08:10:07.000 --> 08:10:13.680
can stretch. It's almost as if as you go down

2303
08:10:13.799 --> 08:10:19.240
to four and three, your mind is expanding, with this

2304
08:10:20.560 --> 08:10:32.639
sense of peace and tranquility growing as it moves down

2305
08:10:33.040 --> 08:10:43.959
to When you get to one, your mind just feels

2306
08:10:45.279 --> 08:10:56.159
exactly how you want to feel. It's almost perfect feeling,

2307
08:11:02.000 --> 08:11:13.520
maybe a sensation that you'd like to keep a place

2308
08:11:13.840 --> 08:11:35.479
that's safe, where nothing can affect you at all, and

2309
08:11:35.639 --> 08:11:41.919
you can stay in that that space of comfort and confidence,

2310
08:11:44.639 --> 08:11:51.520
confidence in your own ability to create this space and

2311
08:11:51.680 --> 08:11:58.799
this feeling of comfort within your own mind just by

2312
08:11:59.000 --> 08:12:08.959
counting from ten down to one. And this is something

2313
08:12:09.159 --> 08:12:13.200
that you can do yourself when you're on your own,

2314
08:12:18.119 --> 08:12:22.000
the time when you can maybe sit down, maybe just

2315
08:12:22.119 --> 08:12:34.159
for a few minutes, close your eyes, just count slowly

2316
08:12:34.840 --> 08:12:48.000
from ten down to one and re experience these feelings

2317
08:12:49.599 --> 08:12:57.959
in your mind. And when you feel that way in

2318
08:12:58.080 --> 08:13:13.639
your mind, your body copies your mind, and that feeling

2319
08:13:13.880 --> 08:13:20.639
is spread through your spine and your nervous system into

2320
08:13:21.040 --> 08:13:27.720
every part of your body, travels through your blood stream,

2321
08:13:33.279 --> 08:13:53.759
healing and relaxing every particle of your existence. And we

2322
08:13:53.880 --> 08:14:02.680
can we can practice this a few times before the

2323
08:14:02.880 --> 08:14:07.360
end of the recording, and then you can practice on

2324
08:14:07.479 --> 08:14:15.040
your own and each time you count for ten about one,

2325
08:14:19.720 --> 08:14:30.759
the feelings of comfort, calmness, and deep deep relaxation become

2326
08:14:31.159 --> 08:14:47.040
stronger and deeper, filling your mind and your brain with

2327
08:14:47.279 --> 08:14:56.759
these positive chemicals that spread throughout your body, relaxing you

2328
08:14:58.720 --> 08:15:08.240
so quickly, relaxing your whole body and mind so very

2329
08:15:09.959 --> 08:15:21.200
very easily, just by counting from ten down to one.

2330
08:15:26.319 --> 08:15:28.919
So we're going to do it now. I'm going to

2331
08:15:29.040 --> 08:15:33.119
count from ten down to one. I'd like you to

2332
08:15:33.319 --> 08:15:37.799
repeat the number after me. So when I say ten,

2333
08:15:40.799 --> 08:15:52.639
you can just repeat to yourself ten. Just notice, be

2334
08:15:52.840 --> 08:16:01.959
aware of how you feel in your mind and your body.

2335
08:16:06.439 --> 08:16:12.799
Then when I say nine, you can repeat to yourself

2336
08:16:15.759 --> 08:16:30.959
nine again, noticing the increase in comfort and calmness in

2337
08:16:31.080 --> 08:16:41.279
your mind and in your body. The same when I

2338
08:16:41.360 --> 08:16:56.639
say eight, when I say seven, six, when I say five, four,

2339
08:17:00.599 --> 08:17:11.959
when I say three, two, and lastly you want to

2340
08:17:12.040 --> 08:17:17.479
say one, you can repeat that number.

2341
08:17:24.599 --> 08:17:24.720
Now.

2342
08:17:24.880 --> 08:17:30.439
Of course, when you do this on your own without

2343
08:17:30.560 --> 08:17:35.560
listening to me, you can say the numbers or whatever

2344
08:17:37.159 --> 08:17:45.599
speed that you feel is necessary for you, so you

2345
08:17:45.759 --> 08:17:51.560
can adapt. So if you feel you want to say

2346
08:17:51.680 --> 08:17:57.520
the numbers ten down to one faster than I do,

2347
08:17:59.279 --> 08:18:01.840
then you go ahead and do that. Or if you

2348
08:18:02.040 --> 08:18:06.000
feel when you do it yourself that you'd like to

2349
08:18:06.240 --> 08:18:14.880
have more space between the numbers, maybe take a lot

2350
08:18:15.119 --> 08:18:22.680
longer to get from ten. All the way down to one.

2351
08:18:26.880 --> 08:18:39.400
That's your choice also to do. So I'm going to

2352
08:18:39.560 --> 08:18:47.919
count from ten down to one, and when I get

2353
08:18:48.000 --> 08:18:55.240
to one, that will be the end of this recording, unless,

2354
08:18:55.279 --> 08:18:59.840
of course, you're listening with music, then the music will continue.

2355
08:19:07.560 --> 08:24:10.560
Ten nine eight, four f three twenty nineteen, eighteen, seventeen, sixteen, fifteen, fourteen,

2356
08:24:14.560 --> 08:25:05.279
thirteen twelve eleven, ten nine eight, seven, six, five four three.

2357
08:25:10.119 --> 08:25:17.000
Two one.

2358
08:25:25.400 --> 08:25:35.759
Now open your eyes, noticing how you physically feel having

2359
08:25:35.880 --> 08:25:43.479
counted down from twenty to one, allowing stress and tension

2360
08:25:44.000 --> 08:25:48.599
to leave through your fingertips and your toes. And as

2361
08:25:48.639 --> 08:25:53.360
you focus on your fingertips, maybe they feel a little

2362
08:25:53.400 --> 08:26:00.479
bit tingly, which is I suppose quite an understanding considering

2363
08:26:00.560 --> 08:26:05.040
the tension has been exiting your body through your fingertips.

2364
08:26:11.520 --> 08:26:13.520
So now I'm going to count from twenty down to

2365
08:26:13.639 --> 08:26:20.880
one again. This time you're going to feel relief of

2366
08:26:21.040 --> 08:26:31.759
tension and stress, any anxiety that you may have leaving

2367
08:26:33.959 --> 08:26:39.959
through your stomach, just leaving through your stomach, almost as

2368
08:26:40.000 --> 08:26:46.400
if it's just releasing the whole of your stomach. And

2369
08:26:46.439 --> 08:26:51.279
you'll navel to just above your chest or below your chest,

2370
08:26:51.400 --> 08:26:55.959
rather so surrounding your belly button area. The whole area.

2371
08:26:58.040 --> 08:27:02.680
You can feel the tension of your body where's left,

2372
08:27:02.959 --> 08:27:08.240
just releasing from that area, and you may notice that

2373
08:27:08.360 --> 08:27:13.439
your stomach will become very relaxed. As I count down

2374
08:27:14.439 --> 08:28:38.759
from twenty down to one now twenty nineteen, eighteen, seventeen, sixteen, fifteen, fourteen, thirteen, twelve, eleven, ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five, four,

2375
08:28:42.880 --> 08:28:59.799
three two what. You can open your eyes again if

2376
08:28:59.799 --> 08:29:03.439
you shoes, but you can just keep them closed because

2377
08:29:03.479 --> 08:29:10.279
it feels relaxing. Just notice how your stomach feels. I

2378
08:29:10.439 --> 08:29:14.200
notice as your focus, just do a little scan of

2379
08:29:14.279 --> 08:29:23.479
your body. Just notice how your body feels, focusing on

2380
08:29:23.599 --> 08:29:30.599
your upper body, your back, chest, stomach, legs, arms, hands, feet,

2381
08:29:33.639 --> 08:29:40.599
Just noticing, and you know, you may start to feel

2382
08:29:43.040 --> 08:29:46.840
more of a sense of tiredness, which may be the

2383
08:29:46.959 --> 08:29:53.279
reason you're listening to this recording because you like to

2384
08:29:54.959 --> 08:30:06.840
let go completely of everything and rift off into a nice, natural, calm,

2385
08:30:07.240 --> 08:30:22.439
relaxing sleep. So now we're going to focus on your forehead,

2386
08:30:26.360 --> 08:30:29.119
and if you choose, you can incorporate your eyes in

2387
08:30:29.279 --> 08:30:33.880
this focus as well. So your forehead and your eyes,

2388
08:30:36.000 --> 08:30:40.360
it's that whole area, basically, almost as if you were

2389
08:30:40.439 --> 08:30:44.400
wearing a mask. You know, like a I don't know,

2390
08:30:44.479 --> 08:30:51.000
a Batman mask or something, or I'm trying to zorro

2391
08:30:51.279 --> 08:30:53.279
or something, you know, the kind of mask that covers

2392
08:30:53.319 --> 08:30:56.400
your eyes but also covers quite a lot of the forehead,

2393
08:31:00.080 --> 08:31:03.080
and focusing on that area, because that's the area that

2394
08:31:03.159 --> 08:31:07.720
we're now going to release tension and stress from your mind,

2395
08:31:09.639 --> 08:31:13.360
from your brain and from your mind, and any tension

2396
08:31:13.439 --> 08:31:17.439
that you may have remaining in your face, in your neck,

2397
08:31:17.919 --> 08:31:23.759
and your jaw, in your eyes, your forehead, or your scalp.

2398
08:31:25.400 --> 08:31:30.680
So basically any tension within your head area, including your

2399
08:31:30.840 --> 08:31:37.799
mind and your brain, and that's going to be released

2400
08:31:39.360 --> 08:31:46.000
through your forehead and your eyes. As I count down

2401
08:31:46.080 --> 08:33:22.200
again from twenty down to one now twenty nineteen, eighteen, seventeen, sixteen, fifteen, fourteen, thirteen, twelve, eleven, ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five, four, three,

2402
08:33:27.119 --> 08:33:48.400
two one, noticing and you scan your face, jaw, your eyes,

2403
08:33:49.680 --> 08:33:58.680
the cheap ones, your ears, the forehead, your scalp, your neck,

2404
08:34:00.040 --> 08:34:02.520
the back of your neck, in the front of your neck,

2405
08:34:03.439 --> 08:34:14.159
the side of your neck, and your throat, noticing being

2406
08:34:14.240 --> 08:34:25.759
aware of the comfort, increased feeling, the relaxation not just

2407
08:34:25.959 --> 08:34:31.040
in your head and neck and mind, also the rest

2408
08:34:31.119 --> 08:34:41.439
of your body. Just notice how loose and calm you feel,

2409
08:34:42.520 --> 08:34:50.840
and how easily it is to just let go completely,

2410
08:34:53.720 --> 08:35:14.279
let go completely more easily that So, what I'm going

2411
08:35:14.360 --> 08:35:17.720
to do now is I want to focus on the

2412
08:35:17.880 --> 08:35:27.360
top of your head, and we're going to allow every

2413
08:35:28.080 --> 08:35:36.080
last piece of tension or stress that might be lingering

2414
08:35:36.400 --> 08:35:41.200
or hiding in your body or mind or head.

2415
08:35:42.560 --> 08:35:43.000
To just.

2416
08:35:44.680 --> 08:35:50.400
Be sucked out at the top of your head and

2417
08:35:50.599 --> 08:35:58.919
released into the air. I'm sucked out into the clouds.

2418
08:36:01.560 --> 08:36:07.360
Imagine a big cloud above your head, almost like a whirlpool,

2419
08:36:08.159 --> 08:36:11.040
and this can suck that tension.

2420
08:36:12.159 --> 08:36:13.840
Out the top of your head.

2421
08:36:15.959 --> 08:36:24.720
And just take it away a good Just focus. Imagine

2422
08:36:24.759 --> 08:36:28.439
an opening on the top of your head with that

2423
08:36:28.880 --> 08:36:34.200
tension and stress and any remaining issues may be worries

2424
08:36:34.360 --> 08:36:38.720
or concerns that are no use to you. Now you

2425
08:36:38.799 --> 08:36:41.319
can all be sucked down at the top of your

2426
08:36:41.400 --> 08:36:48.759
head and taken away. As I count down again from

2427
08:36:48.880 --> 08:38:42.880
twenty down to one now twenty nineteen, eighteen, seventeen, sixteen, fifteen, fourteen, thteen, twelve, eleven, ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five, four, three,

2428
08:38:52.759 --> 08:39:19.479
one breathe, Noticing how you feel, how relaxed and calm

2429
08:39:21.439 --> 08:39:35.759
you physically and mentally feel right now, how peaceful your

2430
08:39:36.040 --> 08:39:42.360
mind feels. It feels so nice to just let go,

2431
08:39:44.599 --> 08:39:53.919
to give yourself some space to breathe easily, to think calmly,

2432
08:39:58.759 --> 08:40:03.599
and just to take your break from all that pointless

2433
08:40:03.799 --> 08:40:09.279
worry and concerns about things that you don't need to

2434
08:40:09.400 --> 08:40:20.000
think about right now, because this is your time to

2435
08:40:20.240 --> 08:40:29.080
let go. This is your space to enjoy feeling deeply relaxed,

2436
08:40:31.159 --> 08:40:38.639
peaceful in your mind, relaxed in your body. They can

2437
08:40:38.759 --> 08:40:47.959
feel so good, so nice to just not have to

2438
08:40:48.159 --> 08:40:59.319
do anything, to be able to really enjoy that serenity

2439
08:41:00.119 --> 08:41:08.040
that comes with letting go completely, that peacefulness that comes

2440
08:41:08.240 --> 08:41:25.479
with m being in this peaceful space. And you can

2441
08:41:25.680 --> 08:41:31.000
keep this sense of calmness for as long as you choose.

2442
08:41:39.080 --> 08:41:44.799
If you choose to drift off into a deep, healing,

2443
08:41:45.159 --> 08:41:53.880
natural sleep, then you can do that. It's completely up

2444
08:41:54.000 --> 08:42:01.880
to you, and you can keep this feeling of calmness

2445
08:42:02.880 --> 08:42:07.720
physically and in your mind as long as you choose

2446
08:42:09.240 --> 08:42:24.479
to feel completely relaxed, completely relax And I'd like you

2447
08:42:24.680 --> 08:42:30.520
to make up your mind that you're going to relax,

2448
08:42:39.119 --> 08:42:41.880
and I want to explore that with you what it

2449
08:42:42.040 --> 08:42:49.400
feels like when you actually decide that you're going to relax,

2450
08:42:51.040 --> 08:42:57.639
not forcing yourself, but giving yourself that. Yes, it is

2451
08:42:57.720 --> 08:43:02.720
a command, really, isn't it. When you're telling yourself relax

2452
08:43:04.919 --> 08:43:10.159
in a gentle but firm way, that only you can

2453
08:43:10.279 --> 08:43:15.159
really tell yourself in that way. You can't really have

2454
08:43:15.279 --> 08:43:16.279
someone else saying.

2455
08:43:16.080 --> 08:43:22.680
To you, now it relax, relax, you know, and it needs.

2456
08:43:22.479 --> 08:43:24.959
To be gentle, But you can't someone else can't really

2457
08:43:25.840 --> 08:43:34.479
have the same the same kind of influence or power

2458
08:43:35.080 --> 08:43:43.000
that you have over your own physicality, over how you feel,

2459
08:43:48.880 --> 08:43:53.799
because when you say it to yourself, it means more.

2460
08:43:54.919 --> 08:44:01.400
It's personal, and your brain and your unconscious mind and

2461
08:44:01.520 --> 08:44:08.080
your body listens to what you say. So, for example,

2462
08:44:08.680 --> 08:44:11.279
we'll test it out. We'll do a little test, a

2463
08:44:11.360 --> 08:44:15.159
few little tests along the way, and you can get

2464
08:44:15.279 --> 08:44:21.759
more of an idea of the force, the positive force

2465
08:44:21.919 --> 08:44:28.680
that you can have in creating a sense of comfort

2466
08:44:28.880 --> 08:44:33.680
and relaxation in your body and your mind quite quickly

2467
08:44:35.479 --> 08:44:46.119
just by you telling yourself to relax. So I'm going

2468
08:44:46.200 --> 08:44:53.279
to start by's focus on your hands. So focus on

2469
08:44:53.360 --> 08:44:57.119
your hands and just tell your hands to relax. Let's

2470
08:44:57.159 --> 08:45:04.119
just say relax. As you focus on your hands. You

2471
08:45:04.240 --> 08:45:08.720
could say my hands are relaxed, or I want my

2472
08:45:08.840 --> 08:45:12.959
hands to relax. But I think if you actually do

2473
08:45:13.080 --> 08:45:21.080
it directly by focusing and imagining that your hands can

2474
08:45:21.360 --> 08:45:24.000
hear what you're saying. You know, they've got little ears,

2475
08:45:24.759 --> 08:45:29.880
which is a little weird. So talking to your hands

2476
08:45:30.639 --> 08:45:59.479
and just say relax, noticing how your hands start to relax. Now,

2477
08:45:59.599 --> 08:46:02.840
focus on your eyes and tell your eyes to relax.

2478
08:46:04.000 --> 08:46:08.680
You just say in the same word relax and find

2479
08:46:08.759 --> 08:46:16.400
the right tone for you. You know, I might say relax,

2480
08:46:17.080 --> 08:46:25.200
but you you might say relax or relax. You know,

2481
08:46:25.520 --> 08:46:31.159
you might say it differently to yourself, and that's important

2482
08:46:32.040 --> 08:46:38.119
for you to gauge what feels right for you. To

2483
08:46:38.360 --> 08:46:43.520
just tell your eyes to relax, whilst focusing on your eyes,

2484
08:46:44.040 --> 08:46:48.759
your eyelids, the muscles around your eyes, your eyebrows, and

2485
08:46:49.000 --> 08:47:24.479
just tell your eyes directly relax now. Now, I just

2486
08:47:24.599 --> 08:47:34.880
did that myself, And sometimes you may feel that you

2487
08:47:35.080 --> 08:47:40.520
need a bit more time for the different parts to relax,

2488
08:47:41.360 --> 08:47:45.200
you know, because I start talking again and maybe that

2489
08:47:45.439 --> 08:47:49.040
part hasn't relaxed fully. But what will happen is that

2490
08:47:49.080 --> 08:47:53.360
we'll just continue to relax even though I'm talking and

2491
08:47:53.479 --> 08:47:59.240
that's happened with my eyes. Something else I noticed is

2492
08:48:01.200 --> 08:48:05.000
when I started focusing on my eyes, that actually almost

2493
08:48:05.159 --> 08:48:07.840
became they got worse before they got better in a way.

2494
08:48:08.560 --> 08:48:11.639
So I felt a degree of tension growing in my

2495
08:48:11.759 --> 08:48:17.680
eyes and then disappearing. So I think what that was

2496
08:48:17.840 --> 08:48:23.000
really was just me becoming more aware of the tension

2497
08:48:24.119 --> 08:48:28.400
that was already there that I wasn't. I wasn't focused

2498
08:48:28.439 --> 08:48:33.479
on it before, so I wasn't really acknowledging it or

2499
08:48:35.880 --> 08:48:50.520
really conscious to those feelings. Yeah, my eyes are still

2500
08:48:50.639 --> 08:48:57.279
continuing to relax, as well as my hands. Actually, my

2501
08:48:57.439 --> 08:49:03.639
hands have got a certain kind of energy, like not buzzing,

2502
08:49:03.840 --> 08:49:08.720
but I can kind of fuel or degree of energy

2503
08:49:08.799 --> 08:49:15.000
in my hands. Maybe that's where the tension is being released.

2504
08:49:16.880 --> 08:49:26.680
Maybe that's causing that. The next part, I think we

2505
08:49:26.720 --> 08:49:29.360
should focus on the back of the neck. That's a

2506
08:49:29.400 --> 08:49:34.240
part which is quite often well for me, holds tension.

2507
08:49:34.319 --> 08:49:37.119
I don't know about for yourself that. I think it's

2508
08:49:37.200 --> 08:49:43.520
quite a standard place where tension is sometimes held. So,

2509
08:49:45.680 --> 08:49:48.799
and I'm doing exactly what you're doing as you do

2510
08:49:48.919 --> 08:49:52.439
it as well, so I'm telling my body parts to

2511
08:49:52.599 --> 08:49:56.119
relax as well. So if you tell your neck the back.

2512
08:49:56.000 --> 08:49:56.520
Of your neck.

2513
08:49:57.040 --> 08:49:59.279
Focus on the back of your neck, and just say

2514
08:50:02.159 --> 08:50:06.639
relax in your own words, in your own tone, in

2515
08:50:06.759 --> 08:50:09.560
your own voice. You can say out loud, or you

2516
08:50:09.639 --> 08:50:14.560
can just say it to yourself internally. But you're focusing,

2517
08:50:14.959 --> 08:50:18.880
and you're saying it literally to the back of your neck,

2518
08:50:19.720 --> 08:50:22.200
as if the back of your neck can actually hear

2519
08:50:23.040 --> 08:50:29.799
what you're saying. So do that now, Just say relax

2520
08:50:30.319 --> 08:50:33.240
to the back of your neck, and I'll do the same.

2521
08:51:12.080 --> 08:51:12.200
Now.

2522
08:51:12.279 --> 08:51:17.319
What I noticed, and you may have had similar thing is,

2523
08:51:18.119 --> 08:51:20.680
even though I was focusing on the back of my neck,

2524
08:51:25.720 --> 08:51:32.560
other parts started to, I don't know, show themselves to me,

2525
08:51:32.840 --> 08:51:35.840
or maybe because they want to be relaxed as well.

2526
08:51:35.959 --> 08:51:40.680
But I started noticing the feelings in my shoulders, attention

2527
08:51:40.880 --> 08:51:46.360
in my shoulders and in my upper back. Whether that

2528
08:51:46.599 --> 08:51:51.959
was because my back of my neck was saying, well,

2529
08:51:52.000 --> 08:51:56.959
I'm pretty much okay. It's the other parts that need attention,

2530
08:52:03.360 --> 08:52:06.400
but my low back of my neck is still relaxing.

2531
08:52:07.840 --> 08:52:10.319
But I just became more aware of other parts that

2532
08:52:10.599 --> 08:52:19.240
needed attention. Now, this might happen and it's not. It

2533
08:52:19.319 --> 08:52:22.759
doesn't mean that it's going wrong. It just means you're

2534
08:52:22.840 --> 08:52:29.479
being notified. Of more places that also want to feel relaxed.

2535
08:52:32.759 --> 08:52:37.080
So I'm going to focus on my upper back, so

2536
08:52:37.319 --> 08:52:40.959
you can do the same, even if you don't have

2537
08:52:41.119 --> 08:52:46.439
any feelings of tension that are obvious in your upper back,

2538
08:52:48.240 --> 08:52:52.840
if you just focus on your back and the whole

2539
08:52:52.959 --> 08:52:57.720
area from his shoulder blades down to the middle of

2540
08:52:57.799 --> 08:53:02.159
your back down his spine and with me, it's more

2541
08:53:02.200 --> 08:53:10.319
the shoulder blads more. Yeah, that's the parts that really

2542
08:53:12.439 --> 08:53:19.279
sort of giving me the nod that it needs relax in.

2543
08:53:19.360 --> 08:53:23.000
The Sound's gonna ask that part to relax, and you

2544
08:53:23.080 --> 08:53:48.880
can do the same now relaxed up the back. There's

2545
08:53:48.959 --> 08:53:54.080
something strange happened there, and this often happens. I've been

2546
08:53:54.159 --> 08:54:02.479
doing this for sixteen years or something, and often I'm

2547
08:54:02.520 --> 08:54:09.639
I'm surprised, but amazed really that there can be a feeling.

2548
08:54:11.080 --> 08:54:13.880
So when I was focusing on the back of my neck,

2549
08:54:14.759 --> 08:54:18.880
my upper back was starting to feel quite stressed and

2550
08:54:19.680 --> 08:54:25.200
in need of attention. As soon as I started talking

2551
08:54:25.400 --> 08:54:30.240
to you about my upper back and talking about, you know,

2552
08:54:30.759 --> 08:54:35.639
getting ready to ask the upper back to relax, my

2553
08:54:35.680 --> 08:54:41.479
other back already started to relax. It's almost as if

2554
08:54:41.520 --> 08:54:47.159
it doesn't need to hear the words just needs attention,

2555
08:54:51.919 --> 08:55:03.959
just needs to be noticed. That is something that often

2556
08:55:04.159 --> 08:55:11.159
happens in this type of situation is when you start

2557
08:55:12.240 --> 08:55:17.200
to relax a couple of parts of your body, as

2558
08:55:17.279 --> 08:55:21.840
we've done with our hands, our eyes and the eyelids,

2559
08:55:23.639 --> 08:55:30.599
and now back of the neck, top of the back,

2560
08:55:32.560 --> 08:55:36.159
upper back, the rest of the body seems to just

2561
08:55:37.560 --> 08:55:47.360
take notice and decide in its own way to start relaxing.

2562
08:55:49.200 --> 08:55:54.599
Other parts of your body start to just become looser.

2563
08:55:59.360 --> 08:56:02.159
I suppose it's kind of like a bit of an avalanche,

2564
08:56:02.360 --> 08:56:07.080
you know, the little ball starts rolling, and before you

2565
08:56:07.200 --> 08:56:10.200
know it, the whole of your body is completely relaxed

2566
08:56:10.279 --> 08:56:26.959
and calm. And if you focus on your face, you

2567
08:56:27.080 --> 08:56:34.639
focus on your eyes, your eyelids, your eyebrows, and the

2568
08:56:34.799 --> 08:56:43.360
muscles around your eyes, maybe you start to notice that

2569
08:56:45.119 --> 08:56:50.200
your forehead is more relaxed than it was. Maybe your

2570
08:56:50.319 --> 08:56:56.080
face is more relaxed. I would say, my entire face

2571
08:56:56.279 --> 08:57:10.880
is a lot more relaxed than it was. So we're

2572
08:57:10.880 --> 08:57:17.400
going to focus now on your shoulders again, just like before.

2573
08:57:18.759 --> 08:57:22.080
Just tell your shoulders. I mean you can do them

2574
08:57:22.119 --> 08:57:25.040
in the digital. You can do the right shoulder, left shoulder.

2575
08:57:26.560 --> 08:57:30.560
I just generally do both at the same time, and

2576
08:57:30.759 --> 08:57:34.000
just tell your shoulders as you focus on them in

2577
08:57:34.119 --> 08:57:40.240
your mind, focus on how they feel. Maybe you can

2578
08:57:40.599 --> 08:57:47.319
see them in your mind's eye. Just tell your shoulders

2579
08:57:51.080 --> 08:58:42.520
to relax as nice as they relax. But I do notice,

2580
08:58:44.240 --> 08:58:50.959
I mean, especially with my back, is the connection between

2581
08:58:51.200 --> 08:59:01.840
the different parts the back, the shoulders, the neck being

2582
08:59:01.919 --> 08:59:06.599
all connected and being such a large part of your body,

2583
08:59:09.560 --> 08:59:17.880
it's almost hard to separate them from each other. And

2584
08:59:18.080 --> 08:59:20.720
my lower back has started to relax on its own.

2585
08:59:26.919 --> 08:59:31.639
Maybe I'm going too slow and that could be an

2586
08:59:31.680 --> 08:59:39.080
issue because we all go at different speeds. And the

2587
08:59:39.279 --> 08:59:42.159
idea at the beginning of this recording was for you

2588
08:59:42.360 --> 08:59:57.200
to be able to just say to yourself, relax without

2589
08:59:57.360 --> 09:00:03.639
focusing on any particular part to your body. Because when

2590
09:00:03.720 --> 09:00:13.520
you know that tearing your hands to relax and your

2591
09:00:13.720 --> 09:00:22.439
hand relax, you tell your eyelids and your eyes, the

2592
09:00:22.599 --> 09:00:32.759
muscles around your eyes and your eyebrows to relax, and

2593
09:00:32.880 --> 09:00:45.119
they relax. You tell the back of your neck to

2594
09:00:45.279 --> 09:01:08.560
relax and it relaxes. Till your upper back to relax

2595
09:01:18.319 --> 09:01:41.799
and it relaxes. He tell your shoulders to relax and

2596
09:01:42.000 --> 09:02:09.759
they relax. When you told your hands to relax. They relaxed,

2597
09:02:10.240 --> 09:02:21.200
and they continued to relax. When you told your eyelids,

2598
09:02:23.560 --> 09:02:30.599
the muscles around your eyes, your eyebrows, to relax, they

2599
09:02:30.680 --> 09:02:45.639
relaxed and continue to relax. When you told the back

2600
09:02:45.720 --> 09:02:49.080
of your neck focus on the back of your neck

2601
09:02:52.799 --> 09:03:04.680
and told it to relax, they relaxed and continued to relax.

2602
09:03:12.840 --> 09:03:21.959
When you told your ulper back to relax, be relaxed,

2603
09:03:22.599 --> 09:03:38.919
he continued to relax. That's with your shoulders. You told

2604
09:03:38.959 --> 09:03:47.279
your shoulders to relax, in your shoulders relaxed and continued

2605
09:03:52.400 --> 09:04:06.639
to relax. And it's not just that, it's that the

2606
09:04:06.720 --> 09:04:12.759
rest of your body has also been listening, and that

2607
09:04:13.000 --> 09:04:20.159
relaxation has been spreading. So from your eyes, the relaxations

2608
09:04:20.240 --> 09:04:27.200
spread to your forehead, around your face, into your skin,

2609
09:04:28.400 --> 09:04:41.000
into your jaw, into the front and sides of your neck,

2610
09:04:42.520 --> 09:04:52.639
all the way down your chest and stomach. Your relaxed

2611
09:04:52.840 --> 09:05:03.360
hands and shoulders meet up through your arms, where your forearms,

2612
09:05:03.639 --> 09:05:19.520
your upper arms, your elbows, your wrists, letting go, the

2613
09:05:19.759 --> 09:05:30.119
lower back, your hips, buttocks growing or just start to relax,

2614
09:05:30.279 --> 09:05:43.560
so continue even more comfort spreading through your legs all

2615
09:05:43.599 --> 09:05:52.639
the way down to your ankles, the tops of your feet,

2616
09:05:53.759 --> 09:05:58.840
the side of your feet, and the bottoms of your feet,

2617
09:06:02.599 --> 09:06:34.279
relaxing into your toes, each toe relaxing, calm, loose, And

2618
09:06:34.440 --> 09:06:52.000
as your body relaxes more, your mind becomes slower, more peaceful,

2619
09:06:59.639 --> 09:07:07.639
to the point where if you choose to fall asleep,

2620
09:07:13.000 --> 09:07:30.360
you can easily do that easy drift theay because there's

2621
09:07:30.519 --> 09:07:46.239
nothing going on in your mind, your brains peaceful, your

2622
09:07:46.319 --> 09:08:20.040
body continues to rise. And with that connection between your

2623
09:08:20.160 --> 09:08:25.720
body relaxing and the word that you say to yourself

2624
09:08:28.199 --> 09:08:39.279
relax means that you don't need to focus on just

2625
09:08:39.599 --> 09:08:47.160
one part. You can just focus on your entire body,

2626
09:08:53.680 --> 09:09:18.480
saying the powerful word relax and observe those familiar sensations

2627
09:09:19.760 --> 09:09:33.959
of comfort spreading throughout your body, loosening and calming.

2628
09:09:35.919 --> 09:09:52.279
And healing every part of your body, feeding more relaxed.

2629
09:10:06.919 --> 09:10:10.360
So all you need to do from now on is

2630
09:10:10.559 --> 09:10:34.680
just tell yourself rats and observe feeding completely comfortable and calm.

2631
09:10:46.680 --> 09:11:53.919
So starting now with number twenty nineteen, eighteen, seventeen, sixteen, fifteen,

2632
