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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

123
00:10:17.000 --> 00:10:21.000
Not really? I mean, I got three kids, but you

124
00:10:21.080 --> 00:10:23.840
get used to them after a while, don't you what.

125
00:10:26.120 --> 00:10:28.120
I can't leave my own these days, got to take

126
00:10:28.159 --> 00:10:32.120
them with you, okay. And it was like, okay, So

127
00:10:32.559 --> 00:10:37.519
trying to figure it out, she came and this might

128
00:10:37.559 --> 00:10:39.279
have been a hypnosis. I don't know if it's a

129
00:10:39.399 --> 00:10:44.679
hypnosis or it was counseling. I can't remember in what

130
00:10:46.440 --> 00:10:52.039
what words were coming head I had on that day. Anyway,

131
00:10:52.360 --> 00:10:58.519
after about the third session, she said, she mentioned that

132
00:10:58.600 --> 00:11:01.360
she'd been in a car crash on the way to

133
00:11:01.440 --> 00:11:07.919
the airport, like about five years ago, quite a serious

134
00:11:08.360 --> 00:11:14.519
car crash. Like okay, it's the dots weren't joining in

135
00:11:15.360 --> 00:11:19.200
his mind, I'm saying his in her because I can't

136
00:11:19.240 --> 00:11:20.919
remember if it was a bloke or woman. I've got

137
00:11:20.960 --> 00:11:26.320
no idea, don't care. But they didn't. They didn't have

138
00:11:26.679 --> 00:11:33.080
like it seems so obvious, like, well, obviously if you've

139
00:11:33.120 --> 00:11:37.120
got this issue because something bad happened, something you know

140
00:11:37.320 --> 00:11:41.600
quite you know hard, happened on the way to an airport,

141
00:11:42.080 --> 00:11:46.159
because traveling to the airport wasn't something that they did regularly.

142
00:11:46.279 --> 00:11:49.000
It was like a once a year thing or twice

143
00:11:49.039 --> 00:11:54.960
a year. I don't know. And unless of course he

144
00:11:55.120 --> 00:11:57.159
was an air like it could have been a pilot,

145
00:11:57.200 --> 00:12:02.559
I suppose. No, no, I don't think he was a pilot.

146
00:12:05.240 --> 00:12:09.159
So it's amazing that sometimes you know, forgetting things, and

147
00:12:09.279 --> 00:12:14.519
it's it's all about forgetting things. I remember on my

148
00:12:14.759 --> 00:12:20.679
chairs falling apart. I keep picking at the Do you

149
00:12:20.799 --> 00:12:24.720
know I've got like a gaming chair? I don't. I'm

150
00:12:24.759 --> 00:12:30.120
not a gamer. The last time I even attempted to

151
00:12:30.200 --> 00:12:40.720
play a computer game two thousand and five, and somebody

152
00:12:40.840 --> 00:12:44.519
sold me their game Boy. I think it was game Boy?

153
00:12:46.080 --> 00:12:49.600
Is it game Boy? What is it? Not the Xbox

154
00:12:49.679 --> 00:12:51.519
but the other one? Is it a game Boy? So

155
00:12:51.720 --> 00:12:56.360
he sold me that, and I was like, I don't

156
00:12:56.360 --> 00:13:01.960
know what to do with this. The chair is not

157
00:13:02.039 --> 00:13:04.360
falling apart because I've had it for twenty years. I

158
00:13:04.559 --> 00:13:09.639
just haven't. I keep picking it. I'm just thinking if

159
00:13:09.679 --> 00:13:11.279
that was my fingers I was picking it, I don't

160
00:13:11.279 --> 00:13:19.480
have no fingers left. So yeah, there's been times when

161
00:13:19.519 --> 00:13:29.240
I've forgotten about my lower back. See, I've very, very

162
00:13:30.320 --> 00:13:35.919
skillfully pulled it back to the reason I'm doing this recording,

163
00:13:36.960 --> 00:13:41.519
and I'm very pleased with myself. Perhaps I shouldn't have

164
00:13:41.559 --> 00:13:48.159
mentioned it because it takes away the potential cleverness of

165
00:13:48.759 --> 00:13:52.159
what I did. But now thinking about it, maybe it

166
00:13:52.240 --> 00:13:56.240
wasn't that clever. Maybe it was just too I kind

167
00:13:56.279 --> 00:13:59.879
of get the senses, like the arrows are basically pulling

168
00:14:01.519 --> 00:14:05.120
pointing at the fact that he's now mentioning forgetting. He's

169
00:14:05.159 --> 00:14:08.200
going to start talking about forgetting about the pain. That's

170
00:14:08.240 --> 00:14:12.919
what you're going to do now, isn't it. Ah? Yeah,

171
00:14:15.600 --> 00:14:19.039
but not always. Put my finger in my ear, just

172
00:14:19.120 --> 00:14:23.679
pulled out some earwax. He said, you wonder like white

173
00:14:23.720 --> 00:14:29.000
ear wax is such a weird color. See. I have

174
00:14:29.080 --> 00:14:33.919
to be careful with my ears. Not because they're so big.

175
00:14:34.919 --> 00:14:37.720
I don't get them get stuck in between buildings because

176
00:14:38.000 --> 00:14:40.240
are so big. No, not because they're that big, or

177
00:14:40.279 --> 00:14:46.799
that they are fairly big. Although it's weird. I had

178
00:14:46.799 --> 00:14:49.919
a friend at school and he had his ears pinned back.

179
00:14:50.200 --> 00:14:55.639
He actually had an operation. His ears didn't even stick out.

180
00:14:55.919 --> 00:15:01.840
I didn't. It's just like it wasn't even to me

181
00:15:01.960 --> 00:15:07.879
that noticeable. You know, it's weird. It's like I thought

182
00:15:07.960 --> 00:15:10.240
my ears probably stuck out just as much as his did.

183
00:15:11.799 --> 00:15:14.200
But he, you know, he had a thing about it,

184
00:15:14.320 --> 00:15:23.720
so he got his ears pinned back. And yeah, I

185
00:15:23.799 --> 00:15:27.840
think that's another thing about distraction, isn't it is? Because

186
00:15:27.840 --> 00:15:30.480
I'm trying to keep coming back to my lower back.

187
00:15:32.240 --> 00:15:35.960
But when I was thinking about my friend's ears, I

188
00:15:36.039 --> 00:15:38.039
don't get I don't spend a lot of time thinking

189
00:15:38.080 --> 00:15:40.440
about his ears. By the way I mean, it's like

190
00:15:41.600 --> 00:15:44.320
back when I was about eleven or twelve, so so it's,

191
00:15:44.519 --> 00:15:48.639
you know, a few years ago. It's over fifteen years ago,

192
00:15:49.679 --> 00:15:51.320
so I don't spend a lot of time thinking of

193
00:15:51.399 --> 00:15:54.240
his ears. But when I was thinking of his ears,

194
00:15:59.279 --> 00:16:01.879
I wasn't focus on my lower back. And you might

195
00:16:01.919 --> 00:16:04.919
be thinking that's because he had such big ears. He didn't,

196
00:16:05.480 --> 00:16:08.440
and it's rude. Don't make fun of my friend who

197
00:16:08.519 --> 00:16:13.799
I haven't seen for forty years. I suppose technically is

198
00:16:13.799 --> 00:16:17.399
he still a friend. I don't know, see the way

199
00:16:17.480 --> 00:16:19.799
I see it, and it's weird, But I got what.

200
00:16:20.000 --> 00:16:23.200
I left school in nineteen eighty six, so it's nearly

201
00:16:23.360 --> 00:16:27.480
forty years ago, is that right? Eighty six, ninety six,

202
00:16:29.240 --> 00:16:33.759
two thousand and six, two thy sixteen, twenty twenty six,

203
00:16:36.080 --> 00:16:41.320
so many years time, so it's thirty nine years. There

204
00:16:41.399 --> 00:16:44.000
are people I went to school with who are still

205
00:16:45.840 --> 00:16:50.679
have high regard for, and I haven't seen them pretty

206
00:16:50.759 --> 00:16:53.759
much since I left school. Like a song called Stephan

207
00:16:54.559 --> 00:16:58.440
or Stephan Stephan. I remember his surname. I remember what

208
00:16:58.519 --> 00:17:03.039
he looked like. He was tall, and he was cool,

209
00:17:04.119 --> 00:17:08.039
and I remember him. I just he was on these people.

210
00:17:08.119 --> 00:17:09.960
He's someone that I kind of want to be like.

211
00:17:10.640 --> 00:17:12.720
I was nothing like him, but I would, you know,

212
00:17:12.799 --> 00:17:16.200
if I could have chosen to be like anyone, probably

213
00:17:16.240 --> 00:17:19.240
in my year, he would have been one of the

214
00:17:19.279 --> 00:17:25.920
people I've chosen to be like, because he was He

215
00:17:26.039 --> 00:17:28.640
was a man, That's the one thing. He was already

216
00:17:28.680 --> 00:17:31.400
a man physically, but he seemed to be a man

217
00:17:31.559 --> 00:17:34.680
mentally as well. It was more clue together, it was

218
00:17:34.759 --> 00:17:42.200
more sensible. He wasn't scared of anything. He just is strong.

219
00:17:42.960 --> 00:17:46.400
But it was also nice, you know, he looked out

220
00:17:46.440 --> 00:17:54.400
for people, and I just, yeah, it's weird. I'm hoping

221
00:17:54.480 --> 00:17:56.799
that the old I'm not going to say his name,

222
00:17:57.599 --> 00:18:03.440
but the I and E E E E E E

223
00:18:04.960 --> 00:18:12.079
doesn't start shouting because of the conversations, the very loud

224
00:18:12.160 --> 00:18:17.200
conversations going on in the garden yesterday. Man, they were

225
00:18:17.240 --> 00:18:20.359
playing music, but I think they're doing it from a phone,

226
00:18:20.480 --> 00:18:24.720
so it's just all distorted from a distance. It's distorted,

227
00:18:24.759 --> 00:18:28.279
isn't if you hear someone's phone music. And I had

228
00:18:28.319 --> 00:18:33.920
it blasting like all day, all all day, right till

229
00:18:33.920 --> 00:18:36.480
about eleven at night. I was like, what the heck?

230
00:18:39.279 --> 00:18:44.480
It was very strange. I hope that's not a sign

231
00:18:44.559 --> 00:18:49.400
of things to come. I can I can imagine I'm

232
00:18:49.400 --> 00:18:53.960
getting going to get a letter. Dear Jason, I quite

233
00:18:54.079 --> 00:18:56.000
like some of you will let me boy just you

234
00:18:56.240 --> 00:18:59.279
let me bore your pain away recordings. But you did

235
00:18:59.319 --> 00:19:03.279
one third day, the seventeenth of April, and it was

236
00:19:03.400 --> 00:19:08.000
more like, let me bore you by moaning about stuff.

237
00:19:09.319 --> 00:19:12.599
Let me moan at you and we you know, just

238
00:19:12.839 --> 00:19:16.839
just moaned all the way through it. How is that useful?

239
00:19:17.799 --> 00:19:19.880
It's useful to me. Lets me get rid of it.

240
00:19:20.960 --> 00:19:26.240
I feel better now, Oh, letting all the negativity out war.

241
00:19:27.920 --> 00:19:31.920
I'm not moaning. I'm just pointing out. You want to

242
00:19:31.920 --> 00:19:35.799
hear a moan, this is a moan, but it's not really.

243
00:19:35.839 --> 00:19:39.240
It's kind of as a funny moan. I can't believe

244
00:19:39.279 --> 00:19:45.000
this happened. I'll tell you in a minute. So when

245
00:19:45.039 --> 00:19:47.400
I was focuing on my on my friends, foking in,

246
00:19:47.720 --> 00:19:52.640
focusing on my friend's ears to be fair, actually, anything

247
00:19:52.680 --> 00:19:57.519
I do when I make these recordings, my lower back relaxes.

248
00:19:58.599 --> 00:20:03.799
There's something about my voice. I'm not saying that in like, oh,

249
00:20:04.640 --> 00:20:09.920
I have such a calm voice. I don't mean like that.

250
00:20:10.119 --> 00:20:16.720
But just there's something about recording or doing these recordings

251
00:20:17.759 --> 00:20:23.839
that has a tendency to relax me. Sometimes I do

252
00:20:24.000 --> 00:20:28.240
feel tired when I make them a yawn. Sometimes my

253
00:20:28.400 --> 00:20:33.680
body feels well. My whole body feels quite relaxed right now.

254
00:20:35.440 --> 00:20:38.519
But my lower back I'm focusing on it because where

255
00:20:38.559 --> 00:20:41.319
the old arthritis is in my lower back, left side,

256
00:20:42.200 --> 00:20:46.160
and you know, I'm kind of stretching it. I can

257
00:20:46.480 --> 00:20:54.240
feel that. It's this I don't know. You know, you

258
00:20:54.319 --> 00:20:59.240
know when you have local anesthetic, so you can still

259
00:20:59.319 --> 00:21:02.720
feel the pressure, but you can't there's no physical discomfort,

260
00:21:03.000 --> 00:21:05.000
but you can feel the pressure. So if a dentist

261
00:21:05.160 --> 00:21:08.839
is doing stuff, or maybe you're having stitches and giving

262
00:21:08.839 --> 00:21:11.759
you local anesthetic in your hand or your foot or whatever.

263
00:21:12.680 --> 00:21:16.000
I had it when I had an ingrind toenail sorted.

264
00:21:16.039 --> 00:21:19.119
Once I had a local anesthetic, and it's weird. You

265
00:21:19.200 --> 00:21:22.680
can feel the pressure, but it's like that's it. It's

266
00:21:22.680 --> 00:21:25.680
a bit like that. I can kind of I'm pressing

267
00:21:26.880 --> 00:21:32.839
on my lower back, not hard, just so I can feel.

268
00:21:34.200 --> 00:21:39.160
I can feel it, but it's just nothing. It just

269
00:21:39.240 --> 00:21:42.599
feels the same as the other side. Really, it's kind

270
00:21:42.599 --> 00:21:49.160
of weird. A what was I going to tell you?

271
00:21:50.880 --> 00:21:56.880
All right, I went out today. So I was in

272
00:21:57.039 --> 00:22:04.240
here and I was just doing some What did I do? Yeah,

273
00:22:04.279 --> 00:22:07.480
I was just finishing up with because I do the

274
00:22:07.559 --> 00:22:11.200
recordings and I upload them and after editing them and

275
00:22:11.200 --> 00:22:14.559
all that stuff, there was a few bits and bobs

276
00:22:14.599 --> 00:22:18.480
I needed to do. One of those things was to

277
00:22:19.079 --> 00:22:23.200
add the images to some of the podcast episodes. So

278
00:22:23.319 --> 00:22:28.440
I did that. So that took a little while. Itchy bumps, Sorry,

279
00:22:29.400 --> 00:22:33.720
Oh that's better. The buttock I should say buttock really,

280
00:22:33.799 --> 00:22:35.720
just in case you think, well, should you go and

281
00:22:35.839 --> 00:22:41.279
wash your ansouldn't you? I've got trousers on, so I

282
00:22:43.000 --> 00:22:48.680
need to cut my fingernails. Actually, So I was just

283
00:22:50.000 --> 00:22:53.640
finishing off some of the I would class it is

284
00:22:55.599 --> 00:22:59.359
administration stuff, you know, some of that stuff that needs

285
00:22:59.440 --> 00:23:04.680
to be done. And I had two pieces of chocolate.

286
00:23:05.079 --> 00:23:08.039
I don't genuinely eat chocolate, but on this occasion I

287
00:23:08.079 --> 00:23:12.279
had a dairy milk caramel Kapy's Dairy Milk caramel bar

288
00:23:13.000 --> 00:23:16.359
with two bits left from last night. But it was warm,

289
00:23:17.759 --> 00:23:23.160
and I thought to myself, it seems a shame to

290
00:23:23.359 --> 00:23:27.160
not eat it right now. It just do you know,

291
00:23:27.240 --> 00:23:33.400
you ever get that that situation. We think it just

292
00:23:33.480 --> 00:23:36.759
seems like the right thing to do. It's just seemed

293
00:23:36.799 --> 00:23:39.319
like if you if you're walking down the street and

294
00:23:39.559 --> 00:23:43.359
you see someone struggling with an elderly person struggling with

295
00:23:43.480 --> 00:23:50.720
some really really heavy, heavy shopping, and then you see

296
00:23:50.839 --> 00:23:56.720
someone like a young woman who's maybe struggling to do

297
00:23:56.799 --> 00:23:58.720
a brolly get out. You know, maybe she used her

298
00:23:58.759 --> 00:24:01.839
hairs getting wet. So you go and help the young person,

299
00:24:02.359 --> 00:24:05.559
the attractive and I'm joking and joking and joking, so

300
00:24:06.799 --> 00:24:08.759
you help the person needs help, and it feels like

301
00:24:08.799 --> 00:24:11.559
the right thing to do. That's how I am with

302
00:24:11.680 --> 00:24:16.799
the chocolate. It's but morally, it felt the right decision

303
00:24:17.079 --> 00:24:22.680
to eat that chocolate. There's only two pieces. I mean,

304
00:24:22.720 --> 00:24:25.240
I lost the stone. Well, I lost the stone in

305
00:24:25.240 --> 00:24:27.119
the heart and said I've lost the stone and I've

306
00:24:27.160 --> 00:24:29.799
not put it back on. I lost the stone in

307
00:24:29.880 --> 00:24:33.039
half and I put half a stone back on. So technically,

308
00:24:33.160 --> 00:24:39.319
I suppose I can't really be dancing around doing somersaults

309
00:24:39.400 --> 00:24:42.079
making out that one are good because I've not put

310
00:24:42.119 --> 00:24:45.960
the weight back on, because technically I've put one third

311
00:24:46.000 --> 00:24:48.839
of it back on. But if you move away from that,

312
00:24:50.279 --> 00:24:53.480
I'm still I'm fifteen, not sixteen stone, so that's good.

313
00:24:56.119 --> 00:24:58.920
What I'll be by Christmas? I might be seventeen stone.

314
00:25:00.920 --> 00:25:04.799
I don't think so well that bit of melt thing. Honestly,

315
00:25:04.839 --> 00:25:10.720
I've got this bracket on this desk. It reminds me. Okay,

316
00:25:11.640 --> 00:25:16.720
you ever see it's a wonderful life. And they've got

317
00:25:16.839 --> 00:25:19.720
he's got that banister, like the thing that he holds

318
00:25:19.759 --> 00:25:21.759
onto the banister right at the top of the bottom

319
00:25:21.799 --> 00:25:24.240
of the stairs and it just comes off, and he's like,

320
00:25:24.440 --> 00:25:29.359
oh damn banister. And then when he comes back off

321
00:25:29.440 --> 00:25:32.599
the pier and all his family there and all his

322
00:25:32.799 --> 00:25:37.240
friends come to save him financially, and the old old

323
00:25:37.359 --> 00:25:41.960
man zone Zion or whatever it is is playing, and

324
00:25:42.599 --> 00:25:45.240
you know, he goes upstairs to see his daughter because

325
00:25:45.240 --> 00:25:48.759
he's Juju, because he had a petal. It's didn't he

326
00:25:48.839 --> 00:25:51.960
in a in his pocket. Juju's pedal, Ju's pedal, and

327
00:25:53.519 --> 00:25:55.960
and he puts his hand on the banister and it

328
00:25:56.039 --> 00:26:01.319
comes off, like oh oh, and he's happy, where like

329
00:26:01.440 --> 00:26:04.559
an hour earlier he was like annoyed. He's like, oh girl,

330
00:26:05.720 --> 00:26:17.200
And I was like, oh, it was a bit like that.

331
00:26:22.960 --> 00:26:26.200
I lost my training fought there. What was I talking about.

332
00:26:28.200 --> 00:26:30.920
I was talking about eating chocolate and I ended up

333
00:26:32.759 --> 00:26:37.920
focusing on a banister on Oh, this metal thing, it's

334
00:26:38.039 --> 00:26:41.680
like that. That's it, this metal thing on my desk.

335
00:26:42.440 --> 00:26:46.119
And it's not like a banister, because that would be

336
00:26:46.200 --> 00:26:49.440
weird because it's nothing like that. But it's something that's

337
00:26:49.519 --> 00:26:52.200
just annoying me, and I just like, I wish I

338
00:26:52.240 --> 00:26:56.480
could do something about it, but that would involve effort,

339
00:26:56.759 --> 00:27:00.920
and it's just there. I just need this screwdriver. But

340
00:27:01.440 --> 00:27:04.920
I lent my screwdriver to my neighbor, and my neighbor

341
00:27:05.039 --> 00:27:10.680
never re basically gave it back. I don't want to

342
00:27:10.720 --> 00:27:16.720
read it was going to be repeated, reported, reprieved returned.

343
00:27:16.880 --> 00:27:21.160
That's it. Never returned it. Oh, I've got an email.

344
00:27:22.039 --> 00:27:29.319
Three reasons to rejoin Disney Exclusive original blockbusters and bingeworthy series.

345
00:27:30.400 --> 00:27:35.039
New releases added every week, personalized recommendations based on what

346
00:27:35.160 --> 00:27:38.000
you love to watch. Oh, and there's another one. We

347
00:27:38.160 --> 00:27:44.279
need your money. Recently things have been so good. Disney's

348
00:27:44.319 --> 00:27:48.880
had a few problems. We need your money please. Plus

349
00:27:49.000 --> 00:27:51.359
we we kind of did everything we could to ruin

350
00:27:51.480 --> 00:27:58.599
the Marvel franchise. I still stick with Marvel, even though

351
00:27:58.799 --> 00:28:02.000
Disney really have gone out of their way to destroy it.

352
00:28:02.400 --> 00:28:06.599
I don't know why, because that was I mean, they

353
00:28:06.839 --> 00:28:13.319
have the rights, they own Star Wars and the Marvel

354
00:28:13.680 --> 00:28:18.039
all the Marvel movies and stuff, and I don't know,

355
00:28:18.400 --> 00:28:22.079
not quite sure why they've kind of done what they've done.

356
00:28:22.160 --> 00:28:28.039
And they really need some pr They need someone to

357
00:28:29.599 --> 00:28:31.599
have a word with some of their stars as well,

358
00:28:31.839 --> 00:28:36.440
just to be quiet when they're promoting a movie. It's

359
00:28:36.519 --> 00:28:39.640
really I reckon that snow White. If it had got

360
00:28:39.680 --> 00:28:43.359
good ratings, regardless if it was good or not, it

361
00:28:43.480 --> 00:28:45.160
might be a really good movie. I don't know, I've

362
00:28:45.200 --> 00:28:50.920
not watched it, but if it had good ratings, it

363
00:28:50.960 --> 00:28:53.640
would have been probably the biggest hit of the year,

364
00:28:54.720 --> 00:28:58.680
even if it wasn't particularly good, just because it's a

365
00:28:58.759 --> 00:29:02.160
Disney movie. It's a remaker one of the most famous

366
00:29:02.240 --> 00:29:06.680
Disney movies of all time, and it's got some famous

367
00:29:06.759 --> 00:29:10.079
people in it, and you know, it's got wonder woman.

368
00:29:10.200 --> 00:29:15.640
She's in it, isn't she. It just shows you how

369
00:29:15.960 --> 00:29:23.039
easily because of social networking, social media, the Internet and

370
00:29:23.039 --> 00:29:26.640
all that stuff, it's like they go to town in

371
00:29:26.759 --> 00:29:31.319
a much a stronger way than the national press ever

372
00:29:31.519 --> 00:29:35.200
used to. It used to be like a slow burning

373
00:29:35.319 --> 00:29:38.640
thing with the newspapers, you know, they try and do

374
00:29:38.839 --> 00:29:41.400
something and if everyone else followed then it would be good.

375
00:29:41.799 --> 00:29:46.240
Sometimes it wouldn't work. And they did one recently about

376
00:29:47.640 --> 00:29:53.240
it was Stephen Frye. So Stephen fry made a controversial

377
00:29:53.359 --> 00:30:07.200
comment Stephen Frye contraversy contra this is recently and oh

378
00:30:07.240 --> 00:30:15.319
he's got another one now. The thing is, I don't

379
00:30:15.359 --> 00:30:17.519
know if it was it was accused of making racist

380
00:30:17.559 --> 00:30:19.839
and sexist jokes or I don't know what it was.

381
00:30:22.079 --> 00:30:24.559
Oh yeah, I know what it was. He made had

382
00:30:24.599 --> 00:30:30.519
been criticized for controversial comments regarding some yeah, quite serious stuff.

383
00:30:32.519 --> 00:30:37.400
They posted it whoever it was online, no one showed

384
00:30:37.640 --> 00:30:45.079
the slightest bit of interest because he would have been well,

385
00:30:45.079 --> 00:30:49.680
he wasn't canceled, and it seems like he's above being canceled.

386
00:30:50.880 --> 00:30:55.079
Some people just ah above that. Russell Brand seems to

387
00:30:55.119 --> 00:30:59.640
be above that. John Tate what was his name, Tate?

388
00:31:00.000 --> 00:31:05.119
Wherever that name is the bloke Tate, what's his first name?

389
00:31:06.039 --> 00:31:08.559
Tate used to be Tit and Lyon. If you put

390
00:31:08.640 --> 00:31:11.599
Tate in Jenny used to be like Tate and Lyle sugar,

391
00:31:14.000 --> 00:31:16.559
that's weird. I put in Tate into Google enough, it's

392
00:31:16.599 --> 00:31:20.240
coming up other than okay, if I just check Tate

393
00:31:20.359 --> 00:31:25.559
Modern Hotels, Andrew is it Andrew? I bet if I

394
00:31:25.640 --> 00:31:28.000
just put Andrew, it'll probably come up in the distance.

395
00:31:28.160 --> 00:31:34.519
And that's a very slurpy word. Then andrews Andrew Andrew

396
00:31:34.880 --> 00:31:39.960
Yeah a n the first word Andrew Tate's the first

397
00:31:40.000 --> 00:31:41.880
person that comes up as soon as I put a in,

398
00:31:43.880 --> 00:31:44.960
So Andrew Tate.

399
00:31:46.440 --> 00:31:46.480
Is.

400
00:31:46.920 --> 00:31:49.799
It's quite funny because the what Ricky Gervais said that

401
00:31:51.960 --> 00:31:55.519
Andrew Tate is what a fourteen year old boy thinks

402
00:31:55.640 --> 00:31:59.200
a man is supposed to be like. And I thought

403
00:31:59.240 --> 00:32:06.000
it's quite funny because he's not really representative of the

404
00:32:06.200 --> 00:32:09.160
male population. I would say it's kind of a fantasy,

405
00:32:11.000 --> 00:32:14.640
kind of I don't know, it's weird. I mean it's

406
00:32:15.680 --> 00:32:23.240
see in England we saw Andrew Tate years ago, long

407
00:32:23.319 --> 00:32:29.240
before he was famous worldwide, long long long before, because

408
00:32:29.240 --> 00:32:33.279
he was in Big Brother, and I don't know if

409
00:32:33.319 --> 00:32:38.160
he was. He wasn't even in what year was that?

410
00:32:40.920 --> 00:32:47.160
What year was he in Big Brother? He don't off cut?

411
00:32:47.240 --> 00:32:50.240
What does he say about? Okay? So look I want

412
00:32:50.240 --> 00:32:51.799
to see some of the rubbish he comes out with.

413
00:32:53.000 --> 00:32:54.960
See I quite like people that come out of crap

414
00:32:55.000 --> 00:32:59.279
because it's funny, but it doesn't you know, people just

415
00:32:59.359 --> 00:33:09.400
say stuff like it's it's almost like they it's created,

416
00:33:09.559 --> 00:33:15.400
kind of like a Frankenstein's monster or AI. They sort

417
00:33:15.400 --> 00:33:21.680
of said, okay, create the perfect version of a misogynist,

418
00:33:22.400 --> 00:33:27.680
like the perfect version that has every single misogynistic attribute.

419
00:33:29.119 --> 00:33:30.880
And he seemed to have come out the other end.

420
00:33:31.319 --> 00:33:33.319
I think I've got no issue with him. I don't

421
00:33:33.359 --> 00:33:36.960
know him, but there's a lot of that stuff online

422
00:33:36.960 --> 00:33:40.519
at the moment. I watch a lot of the YouTube channels,

423
00:33:42.480 --> 00:33:45.119
and I do. I see some of the YouTube channels

424
00:33:45.119 --> 00:33:48.279
and there's quite a few really popular YouTube channels that

425
00:33:48.319 --> 00:33:53.400
are so anti the opposite. Sex is ridiculous. I don't

426
00:33:53.440 --> 00:33:56.920
understand it. I think women are lovely, not all of them,

427
00:33:58.559 --> 00:34:02.160
but not all men are either. Not all anyone thinks lovely,

428
00:34:03.039 --> 00:34:07.680
but everyone's got something good about them. Big Brother twenty sixteen,

429
00:34:09.920 --> 00:34:15.679
so it wasn't celebrity Big Brother ever. No one knew

430
00:34:15.760 --> 00:34:19.239
who he was. He was just some he had hair

431
00:34:19.320 --> 00:34:22.719
back then, he was a bloke and they kept talking

432
00:34:22.760 --> 00:34:29.639
about him being a kickboxer champion, and he was. He

433
00:34:29.800 --> 00:34:36.119
was controversial, argumentative, but he was unknown, and he had

434
00:34:36.159 --> 00:34:42.880
a weird accent, a mixture between English and American. He

435
00:34:43.000 --> 00:34:46.719
came under scrutiny for previously having made homophobic and racist

436
00:34:46.800 --> 00:34:50.440
posts on Twitter. He was removed from the show after

437
00:34:50.599 --> 00:34:55.719
six days, saying which produces saying it was because of

438
00:34:55.800 --> 00:35:07.239
events outside the house. Oh okay, well that didn't come

439
00:35:07.360 --> 00:35:09.400
up when I talked about that. When I was trying

440
00:35:09.400 --> 00:35:11.679
to look at people for people that had been kicked

441
00:35:11.719 --> 00:35:19.599
off a big brother, how I think I wanted to

442
00:35:19.639 --> 00:35:32.880
talk about Taiti Peti, but Taiti so as distractions. I mean,

443
00:35:32.960 --> 00:35:35.199
in some ways, you know, I'd rather have an apritis

444
00:35:35.280 --> 00:35:40.639
than be him, you know. So, yeah, it's weird. I

445
00:35:40.719 --> 00:35:44.519
don't understand. I do sometimes wonder how do people get

446
00:35:44.599 --> 00:35:52.159
to be so angry take themselves so seriously? And that

447
00:35:52.920 --> 00:35:58.159
is something that can really get in a way of relaxing,

448
00:36:00.000 --> 00:36:06.039
seeing that over the years a lot where some people

449
00:36:06.280 --> 00:36:10.639
just take themselves a little bit too seriously. It's not

450
00:36:10.760 --> 00:36:12.840
that they should see themselves as a joke, of course not,

451
00:36:14.320 --> 00:36:23.280
but or sometimes like really earnest people. Let's look if

452
00:36:23.280 --> 00:36:28.519
I've got the right the word right, earnest. The word

453
00:36:28.639 --> 00:36:32.679
earnest is defined as being characterized by or proceeding from

454
00:36:32.719 --> 00:36:36.480
an intense and serious state of mind. Yeah, serious, I

455
00:36:36.599 --> 00:36:40.599
do get it right. It implies seriousness and determination, often

456
00:36:40.679 --> 00:36:44.880
indicating that someone is sincere and committed to their intentions

457
00:36:45.000 --> 00:36:48.320
or actions. And there's nothing wrong with sincerity, BlimE me.

458
00:36:48.480 --> 00:36:55.480
So it's an amazing trait. And being earnest, you know,

459
00:36:56.280 --> 00:37:01.199
if you're climbing a mountain, or you're searching for someone's missing,

460
00:37:02.519 --> 00:37:05.239
or you know, you're trying to say someone's life or yeah,

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

536
00:43:30.239 --> 00:43:30.840
few days.

537
00:43:30.679 --> 00:43:30.920
And that.

538
00:43:33.440 --> 00:43:35.239
It all melted on that day. I think it was

539
00:43:35.280 --> 00:43:41.760
a Wednesday or Thursday, all melted. It didn't stay settled

540
00:43:41.800 --> 00:43:46.800
for a long time, maybe a few days, maybe five days.

541
00:43:46.840 --> 00:43:52.239
I don't know. I lose track. And all I'm doing

542
00:43:52.400 --> 00:43:55.000
is just my friend knocked on. No, he shouted up.

543
00:43:56.000 --> 00:43:57.400
It's a bit late at night to be doing that,

544
00:43:57.519 --> 00:44:01.159
but he showered up to bring Vinnie down or go

545
00:44:01.239 --> 00:44:05.000
in the garden. Logi and Vinnie and and I've only

546
00:44:05.079 --> 00:44:07.400
had Vinnie literally for a week. That was the first

547
00:44:07.440 --> 00:44:09.880
week of having him, so there's a lot of excitement

548
00:44:09.920 --> 00:44:14.599
about having him here. And Logi loved him Vinnie. Vinnie

549
00:44:14.679 --> 00:44:17.840
loved Luke, he loved Logi, he loved going in out

550
00:44:17.840 --> 00:44:21.800
of that flat. You know, this was all new for him.

551
00:44:22.039 --> 00:44:26.199
He was having time of his life. I guess he's

552
00:44:26.400 --> 00:44:28.880
you know, I think he'd have preferred to be downstairs

553
00:44:28.960 --> 00:44:31.599
and to be up here with me. But I think

554
00:44:31.679 --> 00:44:38.039
he's he's given up on the dream. He's just he's settled.

555
00:44:39.000 --> 00:44:40.760
I think that's the most I could ever really hope

556
00:44:40.800 --> 00:44:43.360
for anyone with me. It's just to settle, just to

557
00:44:44.280 --> 00:44:46.800
That's what I was hoping in life for like relationships.

558
00:44:47.519 --> 00:44:49.000
I don't need anyone to fall in love with me.

559
00:44:49.039 --> 00:44:52.400
I just want someone just to just to settle, just

560
00:44:52.519 --> 00:44:57.400
to to give up looking for something better. That's all

561
00:44:57.480 --> 00:45:03.480
I want. It's not much to ask. Oh that's terrible.

562
00:45:04.679 --> 00:45:11.000
Some water. I got a little delivery earlier, some food

563
00:45:11.280 --> 00:45:14.679
to get me through till next week, because tomorrow is

564
00:45:15.239 --> 00:45:20.239
good Friday, then it's well, it's basically Easter weekends, so

565
00:45:21.159 --> 00:45:23.719
I think everything kind of goes back to normal Saturday.

566
00:45:24.039 --> 00:45:28.599
Then it's Easter Day Sunday, Easter Monday or good sort

567
00:45:28.599 --> 00:45:32.000
of like a bank holiday Monday, and then things go

568
00:45:32.199 --> 00:45:36.960
back to normal Tuesday. So I'm going to be other

569
00:45:37.039 --> 00:45:39.320
than doing what well I should be doing what I

570
00:45:39.400 --> 00:45:47.679
normally do. Really yeah, making recordings and watching some Telly.

571
00:45:48.039 --> 00:45:52.000
I hope to watch them Telly over the weekend. I

572
00:45:52.199 --> 00:45:59.440
just started watching the movie, but I thought was getting on.

573
00:45:59.599 --> 00:46:04.519
It's like, I mean, now it's quarter three and I

574
00:46:04.639 --> 00:46:08.360
almost feel like I haven't done anything today. It's kind

575
00:46:08.360 --> 00:46:11.239
of weird, so I thought I might as well just

576
00:46:11.360 --> 00:46:21.920
get on and make a recording. But that's seriousness. I

577
00:46:22.039 --> 00:46:27.639
have mentioned this before. I'm not one hundred percent sure

578
00:46:28.079 --> 00:46:38.920
how to really kind of move Well, I've been there.

579
00:46:39.639 --> 00:46:45.599
Sometimes I'm there. Sometimes I'm super serious, But generally I

580
00:46:45.760 --> 00:46:52.280
think having I'm not going to say a sense of humor,

581
00:46:52.320 --> 00:46:54.440
because serious people can have a sense of humor as well.

582
00:46:54.760 --> 00:46:56.800
I think everybody's got a sense of humor. It's just

583
00:46:56.920 --> 00:47:01.320
different for each person. But to be a bit more lighter,

584
00:47:03.199 --> 00:47:08.639
to be a bit well, what does it take for

585
00:47:08.719 --> 00:47:12.239
you to feel less serious? I mean the fact that

586
00:47:12.440 --> 00:47:14.599
some people have got a lot of serious stuff going on.

587
00:47:16.239 --> 00:47:21.119
So it's I would never really say to someone generally

588
00:47:21.519 --> 00:47:26.320
unless I learn them very well to just try not

589
00:47:26.400 --> 00:47:33.199
to take themselves too seriously. But then you can take

590
00:47:33.360 --> 00:47:39.440
other things seriously without taking yourself seriously, can't you? Is

591
00:47:39.599 --> 00:47:44.280
is that possible? Is it possible to take a break

592
00:47:44.360 --> 00:47:50.079
from all that stuff and just remembering we get what

593
00:47:50.199 --> 00:47:56.199
we think about, so whatever we focus on has an

594
00:47:56.239 --> 00:48:00.519
effect on how we feel. I mean, this is just

595
00:48:00.679 --> 00:48:05.320
scientific fact. It's not an opinion. I was angry. That

596
00:48:05.400 --> 00:48:10.639
sound quite aggressive. It's not an opinion, it's fact. I'm

597
00:48:10.719 --> 00:48:13.679
taking myself I being very earnest. That's going to be

598
00:48:13.760 --> 00:48:15.639
the word this, That's what it's going to be called.

599
00:48:15.800 --> 00:48:19.280
Earnest that's what I'm going to call this recording earnest.

600
00:48:22.800 --> 00:48:25.079
I'm never going to use the word ernest again after this.

601
00:48:26.000 --> 00:48:31.519
It's not one of the words I use. I don't

602
00:48:31.559 --> 00:48:33.719
know why. I just said, like a very old fashioned

603
00:48:35.320 --> 00:48:38.559
what is that? What is that book? Something Earnest? It's

604
00:48:38.559 --> 00:48:41.920
a very very famous book. I'm going to look it up,

605
00:48:42.840 --> 00:48:53.760
book The Importance of Being Earnest O Scar Wild. I've

606
00:48:53.800 --> 00:49:01.119
never read it. I never read it Ernest. Okay, let's

607
00:49:01.199 --> 00:49:12.199
have a look. I'm just gonna have a look for something.

608
00:49:13.320 --> 00:49:15.599
H h.

609
00:49:18.360 --> 00:49:26.559
This is gonna be weird. I'm gonna ask a right

610
00:49:26.679 --> 00:49:35.840
here we go and ask chat ept, do you do

611
00:49:36.000 --> 00:49:55.239
you have any techniques force to stop being earnest? Okay,

612
00:49:55.440 --> 00:49:56.960
here we go. Let's see what it comes up with.

613
00:49:59.239 --> 00:50:01.519
Do you have any here knows his techniques for stopping

614
00:50:01.639 --> 00:50:09.280
being earnest? So, although I mean recently I've been making

615
00:50:09.400 --> 00:50:16.199
recordings and I've kind of focused on some relief techniques

616
00:50:16.320 --> 00:50:19.559
and stuff, this is a little bit different. But it's

617
00:50:19.760 --> 00:50:23.400
a kind of a distractions. I didn't tell you, did

618
00:50:23.440 --> 00:50:28.960
I about the chocolate. Oh, I'll tell you in a minute.

619
00:50:29.239 --> 00:50:34.360
It's honestly, I'm embarrassed by it. I'm actually embarrassed, and

620
00:50:34.480 --> 00:50:42.679
I can't believe no one told me so this is. Oh,

621
00:50:42.800 --> 00:50:48.800
it's given me a whole I just want Oh no, okay, no,

622
00:50:48.880 --> 00:50:51.280
it's given me lots of like a whole thing. I

623
00:50:51.280 --> 00:50:54.199
don't want a whole thing. Just if I say stop,

624
00:50:57.239 --> 00:51:07.679
just ten different techniques, techniques, right, I don't want a

625
00:51:07.760 --> 00:51:16.440
whole hypnosis script, just ten different techniques. Just interested because

626
00:51:19.119 --> 00:51:22.000
I know some things. I know some things. I'm so clever.

627
00:51:23.440 --> 00:51:28.880
There are ways of It's about dislodging, it's about moving

628
00:51:28.920 --> 00:51:32.599
away from a fixed mind. I'm not reading this off

629
00:51:32.639 --> 00:51:34.199
the screen, by the way, I'm still waiting for it

630
00:51:34.280 --> 00:51:45.880
to load up and moving away from that fixedness. I

631
00:51:45.960 --> 00:51:50.480
suppose in a way, it's like stretching exercises for your mind,

632
00:51:51.920 --> 00:51:54.880
stretching your mind so you have a bit more flexibility.

633
00:51:56.400 --> 00:51:59.800
So it is what's coming up with this, the playful observer.

634
00:52:00.239 --> 00:52:06.159
Imagine yourself stepping outside your body, observing yourself interacting earnestly

635
00:52:06.280 --> 00:52:12.000
with others, but also seeing the humor in these moments.

636
00:52:12.559 --> 00:52:18.199
Notice a playful absurdity in being overly serious. Okay, so

637
00:52:18.360 --> 00:52:21.880
imagine like it was a good example I've seen that

638
00:52:23.079 --> 00:52:29.280
I've seen it when and sometimes it can be. So

639
00:52:29.440 --> 00:52:38.639
I've seen people if if it's just like an average joke,

640
00:52:39.159 --> 00:52:45.320
sometimes people won't laugh because it goes against their you knows,

641
00:52:45.400 --> 00:52:49.519
it's a subject matter that they don't like, which is understandable.

642
00:52:52.320 --> 00:52:58.559
But if something when something makes someone laugh, it's uncontrollable,

643
00:53:00.239 --> 00:53:04.519
but real laughter. Something might be humorous, like yeah, it's funny,

644
00:53:05.199 --> 00:53:09.119
but something that makes you just really laugh, you know, proper,

645
00:53:09.400 --> 00:53:14.400
proper laugh, that's uncontrollable. That's out of our control. We

646
00:53:14.639 --> 00:53:18.679
know what uncontrollable is okay, fair enough blind me. It's

647
00:53:18.760 --> 00:53:26.159
so serious it's it's out of our control. So it

648
00:53:26.280 --> 00:53:29.519
doesn't mean so if if someone told me a joke

649
00:53:29.559 --> 00:53:33.360
about the Pope that made me laugh, doesn't mean that

650
00:53:33.480 --> 00:53:36.840
I'm against the Pope or I find anything funny about

651
00:53:36.920 --> 00:53:40.480
the Pope water skiing or whatever the joke would be.

652
00:53:40.639 --> 00:53:44.800
You know, it's just that it made me laugh, and

653
00:53:44.960 --> 00:53:51.559
it wasn't. It caught me off guard. And that's something

654
00:53:51.599 --> 00:53:55.320
I think some people struggle with, Like you can't laugh

655
00:53:55.360 --> 00:54:00.280
at that, can't laugh at this? Well, and I'll should

656
00:54:00.320 --> 00:54:04.480
handler he said, you know, with stuff that's serious now

657
00:54:04.599 --> 00:54:07.079
and you're like, one day we'll laugh about this. Why wait,

658
00:54:09.320 --> 00:54:13.119
why I laugh about it now? And I'm not talking

659
00:54:13.159 --> 00:54:19.000
about super serious, horrible things, but I remember there. I

660
00:54:19.119 --> 00:54:22.920
had a neighbor who had an ambulance called and if

661
00:54:23.000 --> 00:54:27.199
they hurt this this person heard the ambulance drivers or

662
00:54:27.239 --> 00:54:33.559
the paramedics joking, and I had to explain to him

663
00:54:33.639 --> 00:54:41.039
that it's it's a natural thing to do. They're not

664
00:54:41.239 --> 00:54:46.599
laughing at you, they're not laughing at your situation. Basically,

665
00:54:47.039 --> 00:54:49.639
it's a thing called gallows humor. And he had not

666
00:54:49.719 --> 00:54:52.079
heard that because he's young, very very young, hadn't heard

667
00:54:52.079 --> 00:54:55.280
of the term. So I had to explains it's basically,

668
00:54:55.360 --> 00:55:00.639
they're doing such a difficult job at times that the

669
00:55:00.960 --> 00:55:03.960
only way to really cope with it is by laughing

670
00:55:04.000 --> 00:55:07.079
at what's going on. They're not really laughing at what's

671
00:55:07.119 --> 00:55:11.639
going on. They're not they find something's funny, but you know,

672
00:55:11.840 --> 00:55:15.639
it's a way of coping. And it's just similar with

673
00:55:15.880 --> 00:55:21.679
I'm sure with the police, with doctors, with nurses, with

674
00:55:22.280 --> 00:55:26.119
even in counseling. It was sort of you know, even

675
00:55:26.159 --> 00:55:30.719
in the call center, but laugh at someone make fun

676
00:55:30.800 --> 00:55:34.679
of a customer or make fun of a team leader.

677
00:55:34.719 --> 00:55:38.519
That was a bit over the top, you know, moaning

678
00:55:38.559 --> 00:55:43.480
and stuff. Just it was a way of letting that

679
00:55:44.599 --> 00:55:52.559
tension out, a way of release, you know. So it's

680
00:55:52.639 --> 00:55:56.960
not necessarily that you find it funny like that you

681
00:55:57.079 --> 00:56:02.320
find their situation funny or you're really mocking them. It's

682
00:56:02.360 --> 00:56:07.400
just that it's a way to let out, a way

683
00:56:07.519 --> 00:56:13.440
to release. Oh, brilliant, you've now explained humor to us. Thanks. No,

684
00:56:13.639 --> 00:56:16.960
I'm not trying to explain humor to here. I'm saying

685
00:56:17.079 --> 00:56:23.800
that this is what I told this person, that sometimes

686
00:56:24.840 --> 00:56:30.480
people will laugh, but they're not really laughing at you. Now,

687
00:56:32.840 --> 00:56:37.079
I still have to convince myself that if someone's if

688
00:56:37.119 --> 00:56:40.079
I'm walking down the street in my shorts and every

689
00:56:40.119 --> 00:56:42.960
single person points at my legs and laughs, they're not

690
00:56:43.159 --> 00:56:46.719
laughing at me. They're laughing with me. Okay, there's the

691
00:56:46.800 --> 00:56:52.559
bloom release. Picture your earnest thoughts and serious feelings as

692
00:56:52.719 --> 00:56:56.639
helium ballooms, generally letting them go one by one, watching

693
00:56:56.679 --> 00:57:00.639
them float peacefully away, feeling lighter and freer as each

694
00:57:00.719 --> 00:57:05.400
balloon disappears into the sky. That's just another version of

695
00:57:05.519 --> 00:57:12.639
the helium release or the stress release. Another version of

696
00:57:12.719 --> 00:57:17.119
that is you can imagine getting all the all the

697
00:57:17.199 --> 00:57:22.719
things you're concerned about putting them into a wheelbarrow, pushing

698
00:57:22.760 --> 00:57:26.679
a wheelbarrower towards a hot air balloon, you know, wines

699
00:57:26.719 --> 00:57:32.800
with the baskets, and then just the basket's got a

700
00:57:32.880 --> 00:57:36.800
couple of pieces of wood like a ramp. Push the

701
00:57:37.480 --> 00:57:41.440
wheelbarrow in, empty it in there, pull up the side

702
00:57:41.480 --> 00:57:45.159
of the basket and then just cut the cut the

703
00:57:45.320 --> 00:57:48.440
cord or the rope that's keeping the hot air baoom

704
00:57:50.480 --> 00:57:56.519
on the ground. And watch all that crap, all that stress,

705
00:57:57.239 --> 00:58:04.599
all that negativity, discomfort, just slowly rise slowly, and just

706
00:58:04.760 --> 00:58:09.880
notice how good it feels. I used to have that

707
00:58:10.039 --> 00:58:12.679
feeling when I would whenever I got into a ferry

708
00:58:13.159 --> 00:58:17.840
and I would leave this country. I always felt a

709
00:58:18.000 --> 00:58:23.719
relief as I moved away from the shore, you know,

710
00:58:23.800 --> 00:58:29.280
whether it's going to Belgium, whether it was France, Ireland.

711
00:58:29.719 --> 00:58:32.880
That's the only three different places I've been to on

712
00:58:32.960 --> 00:58:40.119
a ferry, France, Belgium, and Ireland. Yeah, I think that's it.

713
00:58:42.199 --> 00:58:46.440
Oh Isle of Man as well, so four. I always

714
00:58:46.480 --> 00:58:49.920
had that same feeling. Although I wasn't able to watch

715
00:58:50.559 --> 00:58:52.599
with the Isle of Man one the winds were too strong.

716
00:58:52.639 --> 00:58:57.639
We weren't even allowed outside. But all the other fairies.

717
00:58:57.679 --> 00:59:01.320
It was lovely. Just it was like in a negative

718
00:59:01.360 --> 00:59:04.599
way like all England who It wasn't like that, It

719
00:59:04.719 --> 00:59:04.960
was just.

720
00:59:07.280 --> 00:59:07.440
Ah.

721
00:59:08.000 --> 00:59:13.719
It was that separation. It was that that break, that

722
00:59:15.840 --> 00:59:23.320
physical separation of being away from well, basically I was

723
00:59:23.400 --> 00:59:27.639
leaving everything there. I was leaving any worries, any concerns,

724
00:59:28.559 --> 00:59:33.199
my past. Everything was there and I was moving away

725
00:59:33.280 --> 00:59:36.480
from it. It was nice, felt nice. It feels nice

726
00:59:36.519 --> 00:59:48.119
even imagining it, to be honest, Yeah, I can feel

727
00:59:48.199 --> 00:59:51.239
like that. Sometimes you can leave stuff like in the

728
00:59:51.320 --> 00:59:54.639
hot air blown. You can leave the physical discomfort. You

729
00:59:54.760 --> 00:59:57.199
can leave that on the shore as well as you

730
00:59:57.320 --> 01:00:00.880
move away on the boat. You can leave that at

731
01:00:01.000 --> 01:00:08.639
home whenever you go out. There's so many little things

732
01:00:08.719 --> 01:00:15.000
you can do that. I know it's imagination, but sometimes

733
01:00:17.199 --> 01:00:22.880
you know, if you carried around a little pad with you,

734
01:00:24.239 --> 01:00:32.000
piece of paper. I'm not talking about big pad, just

735
01:00:32.079 --> 01:00:36.239
a little pad, just a little just you know, it

736
01:00:36.280 --> 01:00:42.440
doesn't have to be anything big and but you could

737
01:00:42.480 --> 01:00:44.559
do this at home as well. But whenever you get

738
01:00:44.559 --> 01:00:50.400
a feeling, whenever you get a feeling you don't enjoy,

739
01:00:50.480 --> 01:00:53.440
whether it's a thought that you're not enjoying, whether it's

740
01:00:53.480 --> 01:00:59.679
a physical feeling that just feels quite horrible. You could

741
01:00:59.719 --> 01:01:03.920
write how you feel down, rip it off, the pad,

742
01:01:04.079 --> 01:01:07.440
off the pad whatever, screw it up and just put

743
01:01:07.440 --> 01:01:12.119
it in the bin, or if you live around here,

744
01:01:12.239 --> 01:01:13.679
just check it out a window.

745
01:01:13.400 --> 01:01:13.639
For the.

746
01:01:15.119 --> 01:01:17.679
For the cleanest to pick up in a month's time

747
01:01:19.440 --> 01:01:24.679
by doing their nappies. Oh dear, honestly, there's there's a

748
01:01:24.800 --> 01:01:28.559
there's a flat downstairs. There's eggshells all outside the kitchen

749
01:01:28.599 --> 01:01:37.719
window on the floor outside. How what they were chucking

750
01:01:37.760 --> 01:01:41.480
nappies out of the front. It's on camera, They've got

751
01:01:41.800 --> 01:01:45.599
the other people obviously got on camera. But how how

752
01:01:47.840 --> 01:01:52.440
what part of the brain needs to be turned off

753
01:01:53.360 --> 01:01:58.360
to be cooking and then just chucking food checking empty

754
01:01:58.360 --> 01:02:00.679
eggshells out of the kitchen window. What part of the

755
01:02:00.719 --> 01:02:02.800
brain has to be switched off to do that, or

756
01:02:02.880 --> 01:02:08.559
to check a dirty nappy out of the living room window.

757
01:02:11.039 --> 01:02:13.199
I mean, maybe we can switch parts of the brain off,

758
01:02:16.440 --> 01:02:19.239
maybe the part for that bit of your body that

759
01:02:19.920 --> 01:02:25.519
you want to feel relaxed. Maybe switch that part of

760
01:02:25.559 --> 01:02:28.920
the body, that part of the brain off, just that

761
01:02:29.119 --> 01:02:32.719
one small part. And I guess there's I mean, if

762
01:02:32.760 --> 01:02:37.440
you think about it like a traffic light system, so

763
01:02:37.519 --> 01:02:40.639
you've got that part of your body is green as

764
01:02:40.800 --> 01:02:49.719
yellow and it's red, so red kind of means it

765
01:02:49.760 --> 01:02:52.360
can Each color can mean what you want them to mean,

766
01:02:54.519 --> 01:02:56.280
so you can just change the color. Maybe the one

767
01:02:56.320 --> 01:03:02.400
in the middle is a you know, hm. One color

768
01:03:02.559 --> 01:03:11.440
is maybe unpleasant feeling, and then the other color would

769
01:03:11.480 --> 01:03:16.039
be feeling relaxed. I mean I want to go, like

770
01:03:16.239 --> 01:03:27.119
you know, stop, go and prepare to go. Although in

771
01:03:27.559 --> 01:03:33.360
this country, there that there's something that happens at turning

772
01:03:33.400 --> 01:03:35.920
a part of your brain. When people get a driving

773
01:03:36.000 --> 01:03:40.280
license in this country, they get a part of the botomy.

774
01:03:41.119 --> 01:03:43.920
And what happens is they get a part of their

775
01:03:43.960 --> 01:03:48.800
brain removed the I don't know, the sensible part. The

776
01:03:48.960 --> 01:03:53.599
only really it activates when they're in the car. The

777
01:03:53.679 --> 01:03:56.960
rest of the time they're fine, but something happens. So

778
01:03:58.440 --> 01:04:05.360
they learn that red is stop, green is go. Yellow

779
01:04:06.480 --> 01:04:09.079
depends on where you are. So if you're stopped at

780
01:04:09.079 --> 01:04:14.920
the traffic lights, yellow means prepare to go, and when

781
01:04:14.960 --> 01:04:17.119
it goes to green. So if you're on red yellow,

782
01:04:17.360 --> 01:04:21.480
prepared to go ready, and when it goes to green,

783
01:04:21.559 --> 01:04:24.079
you can go. And if you're pulling up to traffic

784
01:04:24.159 --> 01:04:27.039
lights and it's on green, then it turns to yellow,

785
01:04:27.880 --> 01:04:32.559
prepare to stop, and it goes to red. Now you

786
01:04:32.639 --> 01:04:34.719
might drive up and not know what it is. It

787
01:04:34.840 --> 01:04:36.320
might just be on a yellow, so you don't know

788
01:04:36.760 --> 01:04:39.960
if it's about to stop or if it's about to go,

789
01:04:40.599 --> 01:04:45.119
so you slow down. You become very aware of it. Preparing.

790
01:04:47.000 --> 01:04:50.679
That's kind of what it's supposed to be, says the

791
01:04:50.760 --> 01:04:53.480
man that's never actually driven a car. I did add

792
01:04:53.559 --> 01:04:57.599
three driving lessons, so there. But what it turned into

793
01:04:58.679 --> 01:05:03.079
is in this country, the part of the brain gets

794
01:05:03.119 --> 01:05:06.039
switched off when you get your driving license.

795
01:05:07.159 --> 01:05:08.800
Is you.

796
01:05:12.079 --> 01:05:17.000
When you're driving up towards the traffic lights and it's

797
01:05:17.039 --> 01:05:21.199
on yellow. What that means to the person in their

798
01:05:21.239 --> 01:05:26.159
brain is speed up. Whether it's going to green or

799
01:05:26.199 --> 01:05:28.199
whether it's going to red. They don't know. If it's

800
01:05:28.239 --> 01:05:33.400
on yellow, speed up. That's what it means if you're

801
01:05:33.760 --> 01:05:35.440
knowing any of the traffic lights. But if you see that,

802
01:05:37.920 --> 01:05:40.559
if you're sitting at the traffic lights and you've stopped

803
01:05:40.599 --> 01:05:46.519
because it's been on red, the yellow instead of meaning

804
01:05:47.239 --> 01:05:53.079
prepare for green when you can start driving again, yellow

805
01:05:53.199 --> 01:05:59.079
means go to the driver's brain. So it goes from

806
01:05:59.159 --> 01:06:01.960
red to yellow. It means I can just go, and

807
01:06:02.079 --> 01:06:03.920
that's not what it means. It means prepared to go.

808
01:06:05.159 --> 01:06:08.480
You don't go yet until it goes to green. So

809
01:06:09.000 --> 01:06:12.559
something happens to drivers brains and it's weird. I just

810
01:06:12.639 --> 01:06:19.159
don't know what it is. It's I guess, it's just

811
01:06:21.440 --> 01:06:23.960
I don't know. I really I don't who knows, I

812
01:06:24.039 --> 01:06:31.000
don't know. There's a die down dial down technique. Visualize

813
01:06:31.039 --> 01:06:36.880
a controlled dial clearly marked earnestness. It was high, slowly

814
01:06:36.920 --> 01:06:41.519
and deliberately turned the dial down, feeling more playful, relaxed,

815
01:06:41.559 --> 01:06:45.679
and less serious of each reduction. So I've done the

816
01:06:45.800 --> 01:06:50.280
die down technique in the past quite probably quite a

817
01:06:50.360 --> 01:06:58.199
few times. But imagine if you just did do that

818
01:06:59.480 --> 01:07:04.760
with your level of seriousness, if you know, if that's

819
01:07:04.840 --> 01:07:11.559
the case, being able to relax because you know, I

820
01:07:12.239 --> 01:07:14.639
this is something I've said for years and years and years.

821
01:07:16.599 --> 01:07:19.679
When you're listening to me, they say, if you're lying

822
01:07:19.760 --> 01:07:24.119
down or you're sitting down, you're giving yourself half an hour,

823
01:07:24.400 --> 01:07:28.079
an hour or whatever time it is to just take

824
01:07:28.159 --> 01:07:34.760
some time out and not care about anything. Don't take

825
01:07:34.840 --> 01:07:38.400
anything I say seriously because I'm just talking a load

826
01:07:38.440 --> 01:07:42.360
of rubbish. Most of the time. This is just time

827
01:07:42.440 --> 01:07:58.320
out from life and nothing matters right now. And I

828
01:07:58.599 --> 01:08:02.840
try to put this idea forward, and I know it's

829
01:08:03.079 --> 01:08:11.360
it's a weird, a weird concept sometimes because I don't

830
01:08:11.400 --> 01:08:15.119
know if it might come across as me saying, you know,

831
01:08:15.760 --> 01:08:17.960
nothing in your life matters. And I'm not saying that

832
01:08:18.520 --> 01:08:22.000
that's a very ridiculous thing to say. I'm saying that,

833
01:08:22.880 --> 01:08:26.760
for the period of time that you're listening to my

834
01:08:27.039 --> 01:08:35.680
super exciting voice, take a break from that stuff that literally,

835
01:08:36.560 --> 01:08:46.239
don't care about anything. Nothing, whether it's illness, other people's illness,

836
01:08:48.119 --> 01:08:52.279
I'm talking anything, let everything go. If you're able to

837
01:08:53.720 --> 01:08:57.479
get into that zone of not caring but not in

838
01:08:57.560 --> 01:09:01.000
a way. Of course, she's still care, but you're taking

839
01:09:01.039 --> 01:09:06.159
a break from it. You're having a rest from it.

840
01:09:06.439 --> 01:09:12.479
And we all need to put stuff down sometimes. I

841
01:09:12.600 --> 01:09:17.319
mean talking from my own perspective. A few times over

842
01:09:17.359 --> 01:09:24.720
the years, I ended up carrying too much stuff like baggage, stress, tension.

843
01:09:25.640 --> 01:09:28.920
It made me ill to the point where I couldn't

844
01:09:28.960 --> 01:09:33.319
function and I lost my job. It happened three times

845
01:09:33.640 --> 01:09:36.640
four It happened three times officially, but it happened in

846
01:09:36.720 --> 01:09:39.039
the past when I was younger, I just didn't really

847
01:09:39.159 --> 01:09:42.800
know what was going on. I kind of a little

848
01:09:42.800 --> 01:09:47.039
bit more clued up about what's happening now, and I

849
01:09:47.119 --> 01:09:51.319
had to drop everything. And it was a case of

850
01:09:51.439 --> 01:09:57.760
like I was not so much juggling, but carrying such

851
01:09:57.840 --> 01:10:02.840
a heavy weight of different things, to the point where

852
01:10:06.520 --> 01:10:09.199
if I just had to let them go, But if

853
01:10:09.239 --> 01:10:13.399
i'd have taken a break. This lady the other day

854
01:10:15.359 --> 01:10:20.520
that reminds me. I can't remember the toffee, the toffee thing,

855
01:10:20.840 --> 01:10:26.600
but that chocolate. I embarrassed myself so badly. But anyway,

856
01:10:26.640 --> 01:10:28.399
this woman, I saw her again. I think today it

857
01:10:28.520 --> 01:10:32.000
was yesterday, but a couple of days ago, me and

858
01:10:32.159 --> 01:10:36.359
Vinnie were in the park. We see this lady with

859
01:10:36.520 --> 01:10:40.039
these two big, massive bags. They were bigger than she was,

860
01:10:40.119 --> 01:10:46.000
both of them, and the bags weren't on wheels, but

861
01:10:46.119 --> 01:10:48.720
she was no, I don't know. She was struggling with

862
01:10:48.800 --> 01:10:54.439
the bags. She put them down, and I think she

863
01:10:54.560 --> 01:10:57.039
was looking at her hands, see you see like it's

864
01:10:57.079 --> 01:11:03.079
obviously she was struggling with the bags. So after I

865
01:11:03.159 --> 01:11:09.359
stopped laughing, I went over to help her, and you know,

866
01:11:09.560 --> 01:11:11.079
Vinnie had to pick me off the floor because I

867
01:11:11.119 --> 01:11:14.199
found it so funny. I didn't. I didn't laugh blind me,

868
01:11:15.159 --> 01:11:18.680
so I went over. This is kind of a bit silly.

869
01:11:18.720 --> 01:11:20.439
I went over to help her, but I always like

870
01:11:20.479 --> 01:11:25.039
the other side of the park, and I was shouting, well,

871
01:11:25.319 --> 01:11:28.239
calling out aloud, not shouting, shouting because I do. I

872
01:11:28.279 --> 01:11:30.319
do have a very loud voice on a shout, so

873
01:11:30.399 --> 01:11:37.680
I don't shout, but like, excuse me, excuse me, bag lady.

874
01:11:38.439 --> 01:11:40.720
I realized that probably wasn't a good thing to shout out,

875
01:11:41.159 --> 01:11:47.399
lady with the bags, excuse me, wiggy. No, I didn't

876
01:11:47.399 --> 01:11:49.680
show that, but just like I was trying to get

877
01:11:49.720 --> 01:11:54.359
her attention, but she wasn't hearing me, and I'm like,

878
01:11:56.640 --> 01:11:58.520
it seemed like the closer I got to her, the

879
01:11:58.640 --> 01:12:01.680
further she got away. One of those visual weird things

880
01:12:01.760 --> 01:12:05.279
you know that you see on strange movies and cartoons,

881
01:12:05.319 --> 01:12:08.640
and that I couldn't catch up to her by walking.

882
01:12:10.119 --> 01:12:16.439
But I didn't want to run because I've heard comments

883
01:12:16.439 --> 01:12:19.760
about what I look like when I run. Another dog

884
01:12:19.840 --> 01:12:24.159
walker told me I've seen you run, and I thought, wow,

885
01:12:25.000 --> 01:12:27.680
you kept that hidden in your pocket. I was making

886
01:12:27.720 --> 01:12:29.640
fun of her, and she said, oh, I've seen you run,

887
01:12:30.439 --> 01:12:34.000
and like so she was holding onto that one for

888
01:12:34.279 --> 01:12:38.880
a rainy day got me right back. I guess I

889
01:12:40.239 --> 01:12:45.359
run a little bit like I probably run the way

890
01:12:45.399 --> 01:12:48.119
I looked like I run. So if you was to

891
01:12:48.159 --> 01:12:54.359
see me, you just looked at me. That's how I run. Yes,

892
01:12:54.479 --> 01:12:58.520
it's not necessarily a good thing, so I'm walking really fast.

893
01:12:58.720 --> 01:13:05.359
Eventually she puts the bags down and I say, excuse me, hello.

894
01:13:05.720 --> 01:13:08.319
I didn't want to tap her on the shoulder. I

895
01:13:08.359 --> 01:13:09.960
didn't well, I didn't want to touch I don't want

896
01:13:09.960 --> 01:13:13.079
to touch anyone, but I don't want to startle or anything.

897
01:13:13.439 --> 01:13:16.159
But I couldn't get in front of her because the

898
01:13:16.279 --> 01:13:19.640
two bags were there blocking the whole thing, and there

899
01:13:19.720 --> 01:13:21.199
was a car to the side of us. I couldn't

900
01:13:21.199 --> 01:13:26.199
get around, and luckily she turned around. I said hello.

901
01:13:26.399 --> 01:13:30.720
She said what I said? Are you're okay? He said,

902
01:13:30.760 --> 01:13:33.239
what's got to do with you? I said, I wonder

903
01:13:33.239 --> 01:13:35.039
if you need a So you look like you're struggling

904
01:13:35.079 --> 01:13:37.960
with the bags. She said, looks like you're struggling with

905
01:13:38.039 --> 01:13:41.840
your belly. Like, Wow, this isn't going how I thought

906
01:13:41.880 --> 01:13:45.199
it would go. I said, do you want me to

907
01:13:45.239 --> 01:13:48.800
give you a hand? She said, give me a hand?

908
01:13:49.039 --> 01:13:50.840
What do you mean? I said, you want me to

909
01:13:51.039 --> 01:13:53.600
carry the bags for you. She said, doesn't look like

910
01:13:53.600 --> 01:13:55.560
you'd be able to carry anything. I don't think even

911
01:13:55.560 --> 01:13:57.000
if I empty the bags, you'd be able to carry

912
01:13:57.000 --> 01:14:02.399
the empty bags. You're so weak. Okay, none of this happened,

913
01:14:02.479 --> 01:14:08.520
but that is what Vinnie is telling people. He lies

914
01:14:08.760 --> 01:14:12.680
all the time. He's things happen because we have such

915
01:14:12.720 --> 01:14:16.720
a boring life. He has to make stuff up. So

916
01:14:16.840 --> 01:14:19.439
he's when he when he meets up with Archie. I

917
01:14:19.560 --> 01:14:22.960
heard him the other day like he sees Archie. This

918
01:14:23.159 --> 01:14:25.199
is Archie's mom that was making fun of me walking

919
01:14:25.439 --> 01:14:30.720
running and stuff. And they were just he was off,

920
01:14:30.840 --> 01:14:32.960
he was on the lead, but I was talking to

921
01:14:33.039 --> 01:14:35.800
his mum and they were just like taking turns urinating

922
01:14:35.800 --> 01:14:38.760
on each other, which is weird. They literally do do that.

923
01:14:39.880 --> 01:14:46.720
And I heard Archie. Archie said stuff like, so what's

924
01:14:46.760 --> 01:14:52.000
he been up to this week? I thought, what, what's

925
01:14:52.319 --> 01:14:55.319
who's been up to? And then he and then he

926
01:14:55.399 --> 01:15:00.760
said to him he had some chocolate. H you wouldn't

927
01:15:00.760 --> 01:15:03.920
believe what happened. He just had two bits of chocolate.

928
01:15:05.279 --> 01:15:09.239
It was melted chocolate. And I thought, hey, Finn, he stopped,

929
01:15:09.520 --> 01:15:14.720
stop talking about me. Why are you telling him? He said,

930
01:15:14.760 --> 01:15:16.720
because you need to tell the story. You've been talking

931
01:15:16.720 --> 01:15:19.159
about it. You keep mentioning it, but you haven't actually

932
01:15:19.199 --> 01:15:21.640
told that story about the chocolate yet and how you

933
01:15:21.720 --> 01:15:25.359
got embarrassed. You know, you can't keep putting it off.

934
01:15:26.439 --> 01:15:30.239
You've been talking for about three hours now, and besides,

935
01:15:30.600 --> 01:15:33.439
this is supposed to be you know, let me boil

936
01:15:33.479 --> 01:15:37.840
your pain away. You've just been talking about absolute rubbish

937
01:15:38.640 --> 01:15:42.399
for the last seven hours. So it's gone up from

938
01:15:42.880 --> 01:15:48.479
three hours to seven hours. Yeah, including this conversation, it's

939
01:15:48.479 --> 01:15:55.279
probably about nine hours. I said, look this to kind

940
01:15:55.279 --> 01:15:57.199
of speak, can you? I said, yes, I can speak

941
01:15:57.840 --> 01:16:01.560
sometimes I have a bit of a stutter. He laughed,

942
01:16:01.600 --> 01:16:06.479
at which I think is rude. And I said, look,

943
01:16:06.640 --> 01:16:10.279
the fact is, I said to him, look, there's more

944
01:16:10.800 --> 01:16:14.079
did you do consider than maybe even though it just

945
01:16:14.199 --> 01:16:19.560
seems like I'm talking about random things that possibly some

946
01:16:19.800 --> 01:16:24.760
of this might be useful at the very least as

947
01:16:24.800 --> 01:16:31.439
a distraction technique and maybe relaxation and stuff like that.

948
01:16:34.439 --> 01:16:40.840
He said, no, why not? Why? I said, Look, you've

949
01:16:40.880 --> 01:16:44.920
lived here for two years and what four or five months,

950
01:16:45.039 --> 01:16:48.520
nearly nearly two years, over two years and four months

951
01:16:50.279 --> 01:16:57.720
and for eight so two and a third years. Why

952
01:16:57.800 --> 01:17:00.239
did you say no to that question? You don't think

953
01:17:00.279 --> 01:17:02.800
that maybe I know that, maybe you know that I

954
01:17:02.880 --> 01:17:06.319
know what I'm doing? He said no. I said, why not?

955
01:17:07.000 --> 01:17:12.840
He said, because my dog. That's fair enough, he said,

956
01:17:12.880 --> 01:17:18.039
while you're having a conversation with a dog. I had

957
01:17:18.079 --> 01:17:26.279
no answer for him. H Movie screen reframe it's another thing.

958
01:17:26.840 --> 01:17:31.720
Imagine you're watching yourself behaving earnestly on a cinema screen.

959
01:17:32.239 --> 01:17:36.720
Then playfully change the film. Replay serious scenes with humorous,

960
01:17:38.159 --> 01:17:43.640
playful interactions, shifting your emotional response to laughter or gentle amusement.

961
01:17:46.399 --> 01:17:49.640
I think sometimes just remembering something that happened that was funny.

962
01:17:51.520 --> 01:17:56.359
Is you know something you see on TV, or something

963
01:17:56.399 --> 01:17:58.199
you see it in a movie, or something you heard

964
01:17:58.279 --> 01:18:05.199
someone say, and just remembering it, it can just be funny.

965
01:18:05.239 --> 01:18:08.800
It changes because when you laugh or if you find

966
01:18:08.920 --> 01:18:14.800
something humorous, it changes how you feel. It changes for

967
01:18:14.880 --> 01:18:21.960
all of us, you know. So, there's a mirror smile technique.

968
01:18:22.079 --> 01:18:25.840
Imagine yourself standing in front of a mirror looking overly

969
01:18:26.079 --> 01:18:30.119
earnest then gradually see your reflection breaking into a warm,

970
01:18:30.640 --> 01:18:35.079
spontaneous smile. Feel the ease and enjoy this springs as

971
01:18:35.279 --> 01:18:42.119
seriousness dissolves naturally. It sounds a horror movie. So you

972
01:18:42.239 --> 01:18:45.479
look at in the mirror and your reflection starts laughing

973
01:18:45.520 --> 01:18:50.720
at you. Wow, Okay, I mean that that's a bit freaky.

974
01:18:51.520 --> 01:18:54.960
I mean it might be really good, but that would

975
01:18:56.199 --> 01:19:00.279
I'll definitely be wondering what was been put in my drink.

976
01:19:02.520 --> 01:19:07.920
I shouldn't be making fun of the techniques, but yeah,

977
01:19:09.239 --> 01:19:15.039
I think sometimes there's a technique of it's an old

978
01:19:15.119 --> 01:19:20.319
It's not my technique, it's an old technique where if

979
01:19:20.399 --> 01:19:22.279
you if there was an incident.

980
01:19:23.880 --> 01:19:24.479
That you.

981
01:19:26.000 --> 01:19:30.560
Struggled thinking about because it's just like an interaction, a

982
01:19:30.720 --> 01:19:34.520
verbal interaction at work, or something that's just just left

983
01:19:34.560 --> 01:19:40.399
an unpleasant feeling, you can kind of have that memory.

984
01:19:41.600 --> 01:19:44.479
But then you know, say it's your boss telling you

985
01:19:44.600 --> 01:19:47.600
off or having a go at you, or you can

986
01:19:47.680 --> 01:19:50.560
imagine behind them.

987
01:19:52.479 --> 01:19:52.760
Like a.

988
01:19:55.319 --> 01:20:00.520
Mermaid dancing behind them, or like all the other managers,

989
01:20:01.359 --> 01:20:04.800
just like doing a little strip tease behind your manager

990
01:20:05.119 --> 01:20:08.560
when he's being so serious and or you're like just

991
01:20:08.920 --> 01:20:11.880
something silly like that. I mean, you can you can

992
01:20:11.960 --> 01:20:14.479
be extreme with it as well, make it even funnier,

993
01:20:15.199 --> 01:20:19.079
don't make yeah, something that makes you laugh, But or

994
01:20:19.199 --> 01:20:29.239
you can just imagine that maybe they've just but you know,

995
01:20:29.600 --> 01:20:34.039
partially naked that in a way that they didn't realize.

996
01:20:34.159 --> 01:20:41.159
Maybe there's it was undone and you know, it could

997
01:20:41.159 --> 01:20:47.119
be anything, just if it makes you laugh. Or imagine

998
01:20:47.159 --> 01:20:54.279
them with maybe every time they talk, a piece of

999
01:20:54.399 --> 01:21:00.399
carrot falls on the floor, piece of broccoli, bits of food,

1000
01:21:00.920 --> 01:21:03.560
so there's like this big pile of food on the

1001
01:21:03.680 --> 01:21:06.279
floor in front of them as it falls out of

1002
01:21:06.279 --> 01:21:11.479
their mouth whenever they talk, or maybe every time they

1003
01:21:11.600 --> 01:21:16.520
talk they just shrink, so the more they moan, the

1004
01:21:16.640 --> 01:21:21.319
smaller they get and their voice starts to get squeaky,

1005
01:21:22.199 --> 01:21:26.359
you know, just little things like that. Imagine a friendly,

1006
01:21:26.479 --> 01:21:30.319
humorous version of yourself, a comedian or playful inner guide

1007
01:21:30.800 --> 01:21:36.319
who whispers humorous comments into your mind during earnest moments,

1008
01:21:36.600 --> 01:21:42.000
making it impossible to remain overly serious. I've had this

1009
01:21:42.199 --> 01:21:50.600
in the past at the really wrong times, and well,

1010
01:21:50.720 --> 01:21:56.399
I just I've just been thinking about the wrong thing,

1011
01:21:58.600 --> 01:22:07.079
and it's it's weird. It's kind of say, definitely changes

1012
01:22:07.119 --> 01:22:12.560
how you feel if you start like just it's kind

1013
01:22:12.600 --> 01:22:17.199
of just whispering to yourself, like even if it's if

1014
01:22:17.239 --> 01:22:19.680
someone's saying something to you and it's all just good

1015
01:22:20.000 --> 01:22:26.079
blah blah blah blah blah blah. And or you imagine

1016
01:22:26.199 --> 01:22:28.840
like just like, I'll bet you need a big poo,

1017
01:22:28.920 --> 01:22:33.640
don't you. Or you can imagine what they're thinking while

1018
01:22:33.680 --> 01:22:37.079
they're talking. You know, it's like if it's an interaction.

1019
01:22:37.199 --> 01:22:40.279
I mean, but you can imagine they're thinking to themselves

1020
01:22:41.800 --> 01:22:47.680
or or you know, whatever it could be. I wish

1021
01:22:47.760 --> 01:22:54.359
I hadn't had that last cup of coffee and they're

1022
01:22:54.399 --> 01:22:58.279
needing to go to a toilet. Or maybe they've just

1023
01:22:58.479 --> 01:23:01.560
realized that they've left the big damp patch on their

1024
01:23:01.640 --> 01:23:06.920
trousers and I'm hoping that no one notices it, but

1025
01:23:07.119 --> 01:23:12.359
you notice it. So Yeah, there's a soap bubble technique.

1026
01:23:12.359 --> 01:23:15.279
What's this? I mean, it's going to have something to

1027
01:23:15.359 --> 01:23:22.760
do with bobbing popping bubbles. Visualize your earnest thoughts in

1028
01:23:22.920 --> 01:23:27.399
case with soapy bubbles. Gently pop each bubble, experiencing the

1029
01:23:27.479 --> 01:23:32.520
release of seriousness as each pops, replaced by calmness, ease,

1030
01:23:32.840 --> 01:23:38.439
and gentle amusement. Ah. I mean, I'm not quite sure

1031
01:23:38.479 --> 01:23:40.560
what soap is, but I have to look that one up.

1032
01:23:41.600 --> 01:23:46.840
A feather touch technique picture a feather, a feather a feather,

1033
01:23:47.600 --> 01:23:51.680
gently brushing away seriousness from your forehead, shoulders, and chest,

1034
01:23:52.439 --> 01:23:56.840
softly sweeping earnestness away, leaving you feeling light, freeer and

1035
01:23:57.039 --> 01:24:02.479
gently amused. I mean, when I call that woman. The

1036
01:24:02.600 --> 01:24:05.359
lady caught up with her and just said, look, I'm

1037
01:24:05.399 --> 01:24:08.960
not trying to, you know, I'm just going to. I

1038
01:24:09.039 --> 01:24:11.720
saw you as struggling with your bags. Can I help

1039
01:24:11.760 --> 01:24:14.479
you pick them and carry them? And she said, okay,

1040
01:24:14.560 --> 01:24:16.600
thank you. I said, you're going to have to take

1041
01:24:16.680 --> 01:24:21.880
vinido because I can't. I can't do both. And she said,

1042
01:24:21.920 --> 01:24:25.039
I forget it then, and she didn't see she took him.

1043
01:24:25.039 --> 01:24:26.960
I said, can you keep it on a Can you

1044
01:24:27.039 --> 01:24:28.600
keep them on a short lead? Though, because there's got

1045
01:24:28.640 --> 01:24:31.960
a habit trying to run in the road. She said,

1046
01:24:32.000 --> 01:24:34.640
this is getting more this is this more problematic than

1047
01:24:34.720 --> 01:24:37.439
carrying the bags? And how many more rules are there?

1048
01:24:38.319 --> 01:24:42.159
I said, no more rules, that's it. So we cheerfully

1049
01:24:42.239 --> 01:24:43.800
walked back to where she lives. She lives at the

1050
01:24:43.880 --> 01:24:45.920
end of the road. I didn't know where she lived,

1051
01:24:45.960 --> 01:24:52.840
but I was thankful it wasn't too far and that

1052
01:24:53.000 --> 01:24:56.880
was it, really, And I thought, what if only I

1053
01:24:57.000 --> 01:25:02.359
had done what she did? Is she carried the bags.

1054
01:25:03.239 --> 01:25:05.920
I think she carried too much. She had too much

1055
01:25:06.000 --> 01:25:10.479
to carry, and I don't think that was particularly good.

1056
01:25:11.039 --> 01:25:15.520
She's fairly elderly, I don't know, age wise, maybe in

1057
01:25:15.600 --> 01:25:18.920
her seventies, elderly, I don't know if that's the right

1058
01:25:19.000 --> 01:25:23.760
word anymore. But she's probably possibly carrying too much because

1059
01:25:23.800 --> 01:25:29.640
they were heavy. They were heavy bags, but she was

1060
01:25:29.720 --> 01:25:33.640
putting them down, having arrest, then carrying them, then putting

1061
01:25:33.680 --> 01:25:42.319
them down. I think someone that takes themselves seriously perhaps

1062
01:25:42.840 --> 01:25:46.159
has a tendency of carrying those bags and keep adding

1063
01:25:46.279 --> 01:25:52.800
more and won't put them down, refusing to put them

1064
01:25:52.840 --> 01:25:59.119
down until they have no choice. So that happened to

1065
01:25:59.199 --> 01:26:02.600
me a few times, where instead of just putting the

1066
01:26:02.680 --> 01:26:06.600
bags down, having a break and taking a rest from

1067
01:26:06.720 --> 01:26:11.199
caring about anything, which again I said, it's a weird

1068
01:26:11.319 --> 01:26:17.359
concept to not care for a period of time, not

1069
01:26:17.520 --> 01:26:22.600
care about anyone, not care about anything, including yourself, including

1070
01:26:22.640 --> 01:26:26.760
your loved ones, including the day, including your job, including

1071
01:26:27.199 --> 01:26:31.279
where you live, including your health, anything, letting go of

1072
01:26:31.479 --> 01:26:37.359
all that stuff just through a period of time. And

1073
01:26:37.479 --> 01:26:43.760
when you do that, there's some freedom there and things

1074
01:26:43.920 --> 01:26:49.279
like you physically, you just feel relaxed, there's nowhere else,

1075
01:26:49.439 --> 01:26:53.239
there's no other way to feel because it's free, it's freeing.

1076
01:26:58.039 --> 01:27:00.680
But then the benefit of when you go back, you know,

1077
01:27:00.800 --> 01:27:03.199
when you like, I say, go back, but when the

1078
01:27:03.319 --> 01:27:07.359
recordings finished, or the session's finished, whether it's listening to

1079
01:27:07.479 --> 01:27:09.560
me or whether it's it could be doing yoga, it

1080
01:27:09.600 --> 01:27:12.000
could be doing meditation, it could be just going for

1081
01:27:12.079 --> 01:27:16.880
a nice walk, anything where you can just move everything

1082
01:27:16.920 --> 01:27:20.880
else away and ignore that, take a break from that stuff,

1083
01:27:21.079 --> 01:27:25.680
just don't care about it for a while, and let

1084
01:27:25.760 --> 01:27:28.520
go of any guilt that you might have about not

1085
01:27:28.680 --> 01:27:30.800
caring about it. You've also got to not care about

1086
01:27:30.840 --> 01:27:37.039
the guilt because ultimately you don't really you're not really

1087
01:27:37.199 --> 01:27:40.359
not caring. Of course you still care, but you're letting

1088
01:27:40.399 --> 01:27:45.319
it go. You're having a break from it. You know,

1089
01:27:45.439 --> 01:27:47.199
it's the same way as you don't eat when you're

1090
01:27:47.239 --> 01:27:51.199
on a toilet. The two don't really go together. Well though,

1091
01:27:51.279 --> 01:27:54.119
the process is kind of the beginning and ending of

1092
01:27:54.159 --> 01:28:00.479
the process, but you know, it's two separate things. So

1093
01:28:00.720 --> 01:28:02.520
may say, how does everything seems to come back to

1094
01:28:02.600 --> 01:28:06.800
pooing with you? Doesn't it? I said no, and then

1095
01:28:06.840 --> 01:28:08.439
I think about it and like, yeah, it does things

1096
01:28:08.479 --> 01:28:13.279
it doesn't it. Oh, well, you've got the laughing stream.

1097
01:28:13.720 --> 01:28:20.920
Imagine stepping into a warm, clear stream stream. Imagine okay,

1098
01:28:21.479 --> 01:28:27.039
clear stream whose water contains laughter, joy, and playfulness. Feel

1099
01:28:27.399 --> 01:28:36.279
earnestly being washed away, effortlessly replaced by a joyful, carefree attitude.

1100
01:28:40.000 --> 01:28:44.119
I mean, I think that's part that can be a

1101
01:28:44.199 --> 01:28:48.800
benefit of dressing up. And I know I've heard that

1102
01:28:48.920 --> 01:28:52.560
quite a few people dress up, like dressing up or

1103
01:28:53.159 --> 01:28:57.239
maybe acting, doing drama, taking on a different role because

1104
01:28:57.279 --> 01:29:03.359
they have a break from themselves. Maybe at the weekend

1105
01:29:03.439 --> 01:29:06.600
they'll go out and there'll be a different person, or

1106
01:29:06.640 --> 01:29:12.560
maybe even moving to a different place, a new job.

1107
01:29:14.000 --> 01:29:18.119
H It's almost that you get a chance to reinvent yourself.

1108
01:29:23.399 --> 01:29:27.079
So oh so before I go, I've got to tell

1109
01:29:27.079 --> 01:29:30.319
you that story about the chocolate. This is Oh, it's

1110
01:29:30.399 --> 01:29:38.920
just so embarrassing. Right, my friend opposite needs his stuff removed.

1111
01:29:40.159 --> 01:29:43.680
He's sort of like got fridge. He's got I think

1112
01:29:43.720 --> 01:29:46.760
the freezing easy go because it's it's rusty on the outside.

1113
01:29:47.000 --> 01:29:49.199
And he's now just got this brand new kitchen him

1114
01:29:50.079 --> 01:29:55.920
he said, all but it works. Yeah, but just because

1115
01:29:55.960 --> 01:29:59.600
it works doesn't mean you need to keep it. I mean,

1116
01:29:59.720 --> 01:30:04.920
It's is probably about thirty years old, and it's rusty.

1117
01:30:05.239 --> 01:30:10.560
It's literally rusty on the outside. It's awful and I'm

1118
01:30:10.600 --> 01:30:12.800
not sure how safe it is either, if it's that old.

1119
01:30:14.119 --> 01:30:18.920
But we've organized for him to get a new but

1120
01:30:19.600 --> 01:30:23.239
it's a second anthriage, but from Del Boy, who's another

1121
01:30:23.319 --> 01:30:26.560
neighbor who buys and sells stuff. So he's got it

1122
01:30:26.640 --> 01:30:30.920
in his garage. So we're going to get that when

1123
01:30:31.359 --> 01:30:36.359
the kitchen's finished in a couple of weeks. So I'm

1124
01:30:36.479 --> 01:30:43.960
going I go for a walk. I said the word

1125
01:30:44.840 --> 01:30:50.359
I took Vinnie out, so yes, I had the chocolate. Anyway,

1126
01:30:50.760 --> 01:30:55.640
I'm finishing what I'm doing. I go out, take him

1127
01:30:55.680 --> 01:30:58.359
out and just walk around. I must have been out

1128
01:30:58.359 --> 01:31:01.399
for about I don't know how for an hour. He

1129
01:31:01.560 --> 01:31:09.319
was just smelling the grass as he does normally. Did

1130
01:31:09.399 --> 01:31:10.159
I see anyone?

1131
01:31:10.199 --> 01:31:10.279
Oh?

1132
01:31:10.359 --> 01:31:12.920
Yeah, I saw there was one man that said a

1133
01:31:12.960 --> 01:31:16.680
load to him, and he actually said thank you for

1134
01:31:16.800 --> 01:31:22.680
stopping and talking to me, so that was nice. And

1135
01:31:23.399 --> 01:31:25.000
then he said, why are you holding your hand out?

1136
01:31:25.000 --> 01:31:30.159
I said money. You don't get a conversation with me

1137
01:31:30.279 --> 01:31:34.960
for nothing. It is I charge a pound a minute.

1138
01:31:36.560 --> 01:31:40.880
We laughed, and I saw a cut. I think we

1139
01:31:41.039 --> 01:31:47.359
saw another dog owner. It wasn't a lot going on.

1140
01:31:47.479 --> 01:31:54.920
Actually I took my hat off, so I have my

1141
01:31:55.000 --> 01:31:56.800
hat on, but it was too warm to have my

1142
01:31:56.880 --> 01:32:02.560
hat on. The thing is I roughly remembered saying that

1143
01:32:02.720 --> 01:32:05.880
to somebody that I had my hat on, but then

1144
01:32:05.920 --> 01:32:09.920
I took it off because it was warm. I don't

1145
01:32:09.920 --> 01:32:13.720
know who it was. Anyway, we come back. He did

1146
01:32:13.800 --> 01:32:16.680
a did a he went to a toilet, got rid

1147
01:32:16.720 --> 01:32:21.359
of that and picked it up, used the bag this time,

1148
01:32:22.600 --> 01:32:26.520
less washing, less soap, you know. And so get back

1149
01:32:31.760 --> 01:32:37.680
and I think, I'm just on the way upstairs, and

1150
01:32:37.840 --> 01:32:44.479
I see the the person that takes the rubbish like

1151
01:32:44.880 --> 01:32:48.560
he's like a it's certainly like take stuff and pick

1152
01:32:48.640 --> 01:32:51.680
stuff up for people in that, you know, big things

1153
01:32:51.800 --> 01:32:54.880
and stuff. And I asked him about because I spoke

1154
01:32:54.880 --> 01:32:56.600
to him before, and I said, is there any can

1155
01:32:56.640 --> 01:32:59.279
you help with the with my friend's stuff? So we

1156
01:33:00.039 --> 01:33:02.720
said a couple of weeks time. So I arranged that

1157
01:33:02.840 --> 01:33:04.640
with him, and I said, he may just give me

1158
01:33:04.640 --> 01:33:11.319
a knock and then I said not now I'm not

1159
01:33:11.439 --> 01:33:15.279
in my head, so he's okay. So I went went

1160
01:33:15.479 --> 01:33:19.880
not gave my neighbor a knock and said, here's what's

1161
01:33:19.960 --> 01:33:23.319
going on. You see you down there? I said, if

1162
01:33:23.359 --> 01:33:25.920
you come out and just look at that van. He

1163
01:33:26.039 --> 01:33:29.199
spent about ten minutes step coming out of the door.

1164
01:33:32.039 --> 01:33:34.079
I don't know why he spent so I know he's

1165
01:33:34.159 --> 01:33:38.680
nearly eighty, but he really it's almost like you'll you'll

1166
01:33:38.800 --> 01:33:41.920
move in him really slowly on purpose there. I mean

1167
01:33:41.960 --> 01:33:48.159
it was like super slow. We guaranteed if I said

1168
01:33:48.199 --> 01:33:50.760
to him, oh, the chip vans out there, he'd have

1169
01:33:50.880 --> 01:34:01.319
moved super fast. Anyway. The I just explained to him

1170
01:34:01.439 --> 01:34:05.159
what's going to happen that I've organized for him to

1171
01:34:05.199 --> 01:34:07.079
have the old stuff that he's got a cooker as

1172
01:34:07.119 --> 01:34:10.640
well that he doesn't use that's going out the new

1173
01:34:11.239 --> 01:34:13.399
it's old. All this has been there for a long

1174
01:34:13.479 --> 01:34:15.920
long time. He's got the same cooker as me, really,

1175
01:34:17.000 --> 01:34:18.880
and he's got a fridge that's going to go into

1176
01:34:18.920 --> 01:34:21.359
the same gap as where the cooker was because he

1177
01:34:21.479 --> 01:34:25.520
uses the air fryer, doesn't need doesn't need a cooker.

1178
01:34:28.159 --> 01:34:34.279
So I do that and like, okay, everything's fine. He

1179
01:34:34.439 --> 01:34:36.880
wants to talk about golf, and I'm like, no, I

1180
01:34:36.960 --> 01:34:41.319
can't talk about golf because I showed a bit of

1181
01:34:41.399 --> 01:34:44.840
interest in golf, and he just he thinks I like golf.

1182
01:34:44.920 --> 01:34:48.159
I don't. I don't dislike any sport. I'm just only

1183
01:34:48.279 --> 01:34:52.479
interested in boxing. It's the only one I've got, seriously,

1184
01:34:52.560 --> 01:34:58.199
no interest in any other sport. You know, boxing I

1185
01:34:58.319 --> 01:35:03.319
know about. That's the only sport I really know about.

1186
01:35:03.600 --> 01:35:06.399
That I know quite a bit about, and I've been

1187
01:35:06.439 --> 01:35:12.039
following it since I was a kid. So anyway, I

1188
01:35:12.159 --> 01:35:23.600
get indoors. I think the delivery comes, so I've ordered

1189
01:35:23.640 --> 01:35:27.039
the delivery before I went out. I go back and

1190
01:35:27.159 --> 01:35:33.680
sit down. The delivery comes, and so I walk outside.

1191
01:35:33.840 --> 01:35:36.000
Oh no, this is what happens. No, I got it

1192
01:35:36.039 --> 01:35:40.079
the wrong way around. I come upstairs. The delivery comes.

1193
01:35:40.520 --> 01:35:43.479
I then go downstairs help with the delivery. Then I

1194
01:35:43.600 --> 01:35:46.840
see the person outside speak to him about the fridge

1195
01:35:47.960 --> 01:35:52.119
because I had uber it's deliver me some groceries. And

1196
01:35:52.319 --> 01:35:55.760
then I knocked on my friends at the neighbor's door,

1197
01:35:56.239 --> 01:35:58.600
explain to him what's going on. Two weeks time. They'll

1198
01:35:58.640 --> 01:36:01.880
take that stuff and all that and then we'll come in.

1199
01:36:02.319 --> 01:36:05.760
Then we Then I came into my flat put the

1200
01:36:05.840 --> 01:36:11.119
stuff away. Finny he had some treats. He loves them. Yeah,

1201
01:36:11.159 --> 01:36:13.199
you heard the word treats. Didn't you sign mate? I

1202
01:36:13.199 --> 01:36:18.439
shouldn't be saying that. And then I came with treats

1203
01:36:18.560 --> 01:36:21.239
and I sit down and I thought, oh, I need

1204
01:36:21.319 --> 01:36:24.279
a wei wei So I go into the into the bathroom,

1205
01:36:24.880 --> 01:36:28.720
go into the kitchen. Wow, I nearly said that, didn'tight. No.

1206
01:36:28.800 --> 01:36:32.119
I went to the bathroom and did did a we

1207
01:36:32.279 --> 01:36:37.720
wie wash my hands, and you know that's quite often

1208
01:36:37.760 --> 01:36:39.720
I do. I just was look in the mirror and

1209
01:36:39.880 --> 01:36:45.399
just feel sorry for myself for a few minutes. I

1210
01:36:45.439 --> 01:36:48.199
couldn't leave what I saw. There was toffee sticking out

1211
01:36:48.319 --> 01:36:51.800
my beard, all over my bed from the the caramel

1212
01:36:53.319 --> 01:36:57.640
Cabri's dairy milk caramel, so the the caramel midd or whatever.

1213
01:36:57.720 --> 01:37:01.239
It was sticking in my bed because my beer is

1214
01:37:01.279 --> 01:37:03.520
now too long to even feel it, so it wasn't

1215
01:37:03.520 --> 01:37:06.159
against my skin, but it was just all dripping down.

1216
01:37:10.479 --> 01:37:14.800
I couldn't believe it. I was walking around with that

1217
01:37:15.079 --> 01:37:23.760
on my chin for the last hour. I've been embarrassed

1218
01:37:23.800 --> 01:37:32.399
before many times, many many, many times. But this this

1219
01:37:32.760 --> 01:37:42.520
was yeah, this was wrong. It was just just anyway,

1220
01:37:45.239 --> 01:37:48.840
that's it, really. I hope this has been mildly helpful.

1221
01:37:49.720 --> 01:37:51.640
I can't see how it would be. But if it was,

1222
01:37:51.760 --> 01:37:55.640
then good. If it wasn't, then I hope it was.

1223
01:37:57.000 --> 01:37:58.880
I got no idea how long I was talking for.

1224
01:37:59.720 --> 01:38:02.800
It seems like a long time, but then in a

1225
01:38:02.880 --> 01:38:06.399
way it doesn't. Should we have a look according to

1226
01:38:06.520 --> 01:38:10.159
that one hour and over an hour and a half,

1227
01:38:10.239 --> 01:38:16.279
I've been talking. Belind me, sir, I'm going to go

1228
01:38:19.920 --> 01:38:22.680
give Vinya another t r e e e e e

1229
01:38:22.960 --> 01:38:29.840
e e e e e T And that's that's it

1230
01:38:30.039 --> 01:38:33.680
for me for now. So thank you for listening. Remember

1231
01:38:33.720 --> 01:38:36.000
to be kind to yourself, because you do deserve to

1232
01:38:36.079 --> 01:38:43.359
be happy a be gentle with yourself. Notice how the

1233
01:38:43.399 --> 01:38:46.600
way you feel has changed since you started listening to this.

1234
01:38:48.439 --> 01:38:54.199
And if this is useful and it helps beneficial, maybe

1235
01:38:54.479 --> 01:38:59.399
let me know lot other people know share the love man,

1236
01:39:00.640 --> 01:39:05.520
just I sometimes think that it's almost like on people's

1237
01:39:05.560 --> 01:39:08.279
dirty little secret. You know, they found me on a

1238
01:39:08.359 --> 01:39:10.720
weird part of the internet. It's like that I stop

1239
01:39:10.840 --> 01:39:16.640
telling anyone else. I wonder if you were embarrassed about me.

1240
01:39:17.000 --> 01:39:24.199
I don't know. Anyway, Thanks for listening and I will

1241
01:39:24.399 --> 01:39:32.720
be back again soon. Take care, lots of love, bye.

1242
01:39:38.479 --> 01:39:52.960
Relax in a more deep and meaningful way. Maybe in

1243
01:39:53.079 --> 01:39:58.560
a way that can not just allow you to feel

1244
01:40:00.119 --> 01:40:09.079
harmor now and throughout the time we spend together here,

1245
01:40:11.279 --> 01:40:16.960
not just relaxed at the end of the recording when

1246
01:40:17.000 --> 01:40:23.600
it's finished and you can enjoy that sense of comfort

1247
01:40:23.840 --> 01:40:38.680
and peace, But also I think it would be nice

1248
01:40:38.840 --> 01:40:58.600
to have those feelings of relaxation continue for longer after

1249
01:40:58.720 --> 01:41:09.279
the recording is ending, so that you can still benefit

1250
01:41:12.159 --> 01:41:19.399
from listening to my voice, maybe in a few hours time,

1251
01:41:21.359 --> 01:41:34.800
perhaps tomorrow, and then by listening regularly, especially if you

1252
01:41:35.000 --> 01:41:39.239
find like some people do and myself as well. I

1253
01:41:39.800 --> 01:41:46.520
sometimes I find one particular recording that really resonates with me,

1254
01:41:50.920 --> 01:41:53.239
and I just listen to it over and over again

1255
01:41:55.560 --> 01:42:08.560
every morning, every evening. There was this recording from We're

1256
01:42:08.600 --> 01:42:14.319
going back to about nineteen ninety nine. It wasn't hypnosis,

1257
01:42:14.439 --> 01:42:19.680
but it was a guided visualizations. It kind of was hypnosis, really,

1258
01:42:22.199 --> 01:42:27.359
and I managed to find it again and it still

1259
01:42:27.479 --> 01:42:32.880
has the same effect on me. And part of it

1260
01:42:33.239 --> 01:42:47.920
was the person's voice relaxed me, just felt so peaceful,

1261
01:42:50.079 --> 01:42:56.520
and I'd look forward to listening to her in the

1262
01:42:56.680 --> 01:43:07.319
morning and in the evening. And I knew before even

1263
01:43:08.119 --> 01:43:16.560
pressing the play button that since I've done that, pressed

1264
01:43:16.600 --> 01:43:25.800
the play button. This is in the days of CD players,

1265
01:43:28.800 --> 01:43:34.279
press the play button. In fact, it might have even

1266
01:43:34.319 --> 01:43:38.520
been a tape tape recorder. I'd lie down on the

1267
01:43:38.600 --> 01:43:51.960
bed and then even without necessarily listening to her words

1268
01:43:55.319 --> 01:44:04.600
because I had them memorized. Really, it was as if

1269
01:44:04.720 --> 01:44:15.920
my body knew exactly what to do, and the muscles

1270
01:44:16.199 --> 01:44:37.520
just almost went into automatic relaxation, and I remember my

1271
01:44:37.760 --> 01:44:51.640
mind would slow down. Now. Now, I was listening to

1272
01:44:51.760 --> 01:45:00.960
this recording in the early days of learning hypnosis, and

1273
01:45:01.199 --> 01:45:10.079
long before I ever made any videos or audio recordings myself,

1274
01:45:11.319 --> 01:45:14.640
because I didn't start doing that till two thousand and six,

1275
01:45:21.600 --> 01:45:37.520
I knew. I knew how helpful I found being able

1276
01:45:37.600 --> 01:45:46.600
to just let go, to have that trust in the

1277
01:45:46.760 --> 01:45:57.079
person that I'm listening to, knowing that it's going to

1278
01:45:57.159 --> 01:46:07.920
be just as relaxing, if not more so. Each time

1279
01:46:08.239 --> 01:46:20.720
you hear my voice, you may feel the same. Some

1280
01:46:21.079 --> 01:46:27.640
people have been listening to me for over a decade.

1281
01:46:36.119 --> 01:46:40.079
Maybe not solidly, obviously not twenty four hours a day,

1282
01:46:41.880 --> 01:46:48.399
but maybe people come back. Some people may be listen

1283
01:46:48.479 --> 01:47:05.000
every day. That's something that I do which you may

1284
01:47:05.159 --> 01:47:24.000
not realize by listening, is when I record these recordings.

1285
01:47:25.720 --> 01:47:25.920
Now.

1286
01:47:26.239 --> 01:47:38.760
For example, I also am affected by the words that

1287
01:47:38.920 --> 01:47:50.359
I say. So if I said to you, focus on

1288
01:47:50.520 --> 01:47:59.960
your feet, notice your feet relaxing, I would be focus

1289
01:48:00.159 --> 01:48:12.920
sin on my feet. I will be noticing my feet relaxing.

1290
01:48:22.840 --> 01:48:29.039
If I said, focus on your hands, and maybe notice

1291
01:48:29.199 --> 01:48:40.600
the difference between each hand, perhaps notice the the air

1292
01:48:41.119 --> 01:48:45.720
in the room, the temperature of the room. On the

1293
01:48:45.840 --> 01:48:57.640
backs of your hands. You may start to notice what

1294
01:48:57.760 --> 01:49:05.039
almost feels like a very light breeze, even though there

1295
01:49:05.920 --> 01:49:10.960
may not be any type of breeze at all where

1296
01:49:11.039 --> 01:49:23.239
you are right now. And as you become aware of

1297
01:49:24.680 --> 01:49:38.000
your hands, I'm also aware of how relaxed my hands

1298
01:49:42.039 --> 01:49:43.119
are feeling.

1299
01:49:44.560 --> 01:49:44.760
Now.

1300
01:49:59.520 --> 01:50:05.359
And when it comes to potentially drifting off to sleep,

1301
01:50:06.479 --> 01:50:19.039
which may be the reason you're listening, I also feel

1302
01:50:19.239 --> 01:50:33.439
drowsy when I make these recordings. I also notice my

1303
01:50:33.760 --> 01:50:50.000
mind drifting. In fact, at times I've actually fallen asleep

1304
01:50:55.640 --> 01:51:10.079
without even noticing, and then I carry on talking. It's

1305
01:51:10.159 --> 01:51:19.159
only when I listen back to do the editing I

1306
01:51:19.359 --> 01:51:28.560
hear snoring and I think I don't remember snoring. I

1307
01:51:28.640 --> 01:51:39.520
remember talking. This snoring was a pig turned up. That's

1308
01:51:39.560 --> 01:51:47.000
why I sound like when I snare and I get

1309
01:51:47.079 --> 01:52:01.000
really into the whole experience. I don't know how you feel,

1310
01:52:07.279 --> 01:52:17.720
how relaxed you feel in your feet, how relaxed you

1311
01:52:18.000 --> 01:52:39.199
feel in your hands. I have noticed more and more

1312
01:52:45.159 --> 01:52:57.800
that the more relaxed, deeper level of comfort you feel,

1313
01:53:01.520 --> 01:53:17.640
the easier your breathing becomes. It's almost like that additional

1314
01:53:20.840 --> 01:53:41.760
muscle relaxation. So this allows you to breathe easier without

1315
01:53:43.279 --> 01:54:00.279
necessarily focusing on your breath, however, being able to, yeah,

1316
01:54:03.439 --> 01:54:43.640
notice the ease in which you breathe so naturally. You

1317
01:54:43.880 --> 01:55:26.319
breathe so very easily and smoothly. Whenever I imagine my

1318
01:55:26.560 --> 01:55:42.840
breathing improving, when I've got my eyes closed, I tend

1319
01:55:43.039 --> 01:56:03.479
to visualize a beautiful field with trees and flowers producing

1320
01:56:03.640 --> 01:56:37.600
all that life giving oxygen. It feels nice too, if

1321
01:56:37.800 --> 01:57:08.319
nothing else, just taking some time away from everything, enjoying

1322
01:57:14.760 --> 01:58:05.920
that feeling of peace, serenity with a joyful heart. Time

1323
01:58:06.399 --> 01:58:37.039
seems to just drip by so very slowly, relaxed, so

1324
01:58:37.680 --> 01:59:16.119
deeply peaceful, completely unattacked, watched to any thoughts whatsoever in

1325
01:59:16.319 --> 02:00:20.680
this moment, completely free, noticing that your mind has slowed down,

1326
02:00:29.000 --> 02:01:15.640
slowed down because nothing really requires your attention. You can

1327
02:01:15.960 --> 02:01:32.039
enjoy the physical sensations of allowing the stress to rip

1328
02:01:32.800 --> 02:01:46.279
out of your body, to appear out of every part

1329
02:01:52.600 --> 02:02:17.279
of your body, being released from your brain in your

1330
02:02:17.479 --> 02:03:08.640
mind slowly but surely. The muscles in your legs relax

1331
02:03:25.800 --> 02:04:06.439
so very deeply, res so deeply. And the feelings, the

1332
02:04:06.680 --> 02:04:32.000
pleasant feelings in your arms and shoulders, deepening each part

1333
02:04:32.159 --> 02:05:13.079
of your body further and deeper and deeper. Noticine, the

1334
02:05:13.239 --> 02:05:39.800
feelings in the back of your neck, the feelings in

1335
02:05:39.920 --> 02:06:29.399
your wrists, muscles in front of your body. I all say,

1336
02:06:39.239 --> 02:07:18.479
feeling peaceful deeply, there's a sense of peace spreads through

1337
02:07:20.039 --> 02:07:57.800
your very core. Even when you focus on your mind.

1338
02:08:09.760 --> 02:09:20.199
Her mind becomes be and slower, even deeper, relaxing so

1339
02:09:20.840 --> 02:10:26.760
very slow. His stomach, he's Forllin's stomach. Your back. Notice

1340
02:10:37.039 --> 02:10:55.479
Notice how relaxed you'd never fear in the hole of

1341
02:10:55.640 --> 02:11:28.560
your back. Your spy from your brain all the way

1342
02:11:28.720 --> 02:11:40.079
down the middle of your back, sending and receiving millions

1343
02:11:40.159 --> 02:12:10.760
of messages every day, deep comfort, increasing, deep playing ri.

1344
02:12:41.439 --> 02:12:42.119
You mes.

1345
02:13:07.800 --> 02:13:21.640
Relegs, spreading those signals down a spine or cord into air.

1346
02:13:21.840 --> 02:13:41.279
Every part of your body, your shins, and your calf muscles,

1347
02:14:08.520 --> 02:14:38.000
your elbows, feelings of peace and tranquility spreading through your body,

1348
02:14:43.039 --> 02:14:59.640
tips of your toes, to your eyes, your fingers. All wait,

1349
02:15:00.039 --> 02:16:01.560
you'll lower back, letting go, re the thinker, peace drifting

1350
02:16:09.039 --> 02:16:37.440
mind just wandering away, happy to let go, let go completely,

1351
02:16:39.920 --> 02:17:37.840
let go, so tranquil, the whole body enjoying a sense

1352
02:18:02.639 --> 02:19:59.200
listening God he for more peace, for enjoy the space,

1353
02:20:01.600 --> 02:22:13.719
this space of peace and safety. So fary, relaxed, letting go.

1354
02:22:31.799 --> 02:22:39.399
Maybe we can just focus on the different parts of

1355
02:22:39.559 --> 02:23:13.920
your body, just to notice a forehead and your eyes,

1356
02:23:46.799 --> 02:24:19.799
you too, so Louise, noticing the sense of complete freedom,

1357
02:24:31.840 --> 02:26:24.239

such easier loose you may have you may not have

1359
02:27:39.200 --> 02:28:46.120
noticed your mind drifting, peaceful, moveingly, even more deeply in

1360
02:28:46.239 --> 02:29:33.799

02:30:21.760 --> 02:31:33.360
total peace. Come, so calm, let him go, peace with

1362
02:31:33.799 --> 02:32:44.639
mind rexed forty So relaxed, so relaxed. Your body feels

1363
02:32:44.959 --> 02:33:24.399
almost invisible, So the very relaxed. I'm peaceful, so peaceful,

1364
02:33:40.319 --> 02:34:26.520
relax liquor m and you could start to notice that

1365
02:34:27.520 --> 02:34:38.319
you are feeling more relaxed, even though I've not purposely

1366
02:34:39.760 --> 02:34:48.719
focused your mind upon that sense of physical comfort that

1367
02:34:48.920 --> 02:34:55.879
is growing within you throughout your body, and your mind

1368
02:34:58.000 --> 02:35:06.399
starts to slow down, and that could be almost in

1369
02:35:07.319 --> 02:35:15.879
recognition of I guess my speech not being particularly fast

1370
02:35:22.440 --> 02:35:32.840
and things just generally feel calmer. Just by listening to

1371
02:35:33.000 --> 02:35:41.559
my voice, you give yourself an opportunity to take a

1372
02:35:41.719 --> 02:35:48.479
break from the day, take a break from your life

1373
02:35:49.639 --> 02:35:58.120
as it is, and to give yourself a rest, giving

1374
02:35:58.159 --> 02:36:05.639
yourself permission to take some time off, and to allow

1375
02:36:05.799 --> 02:36:11.959
your body to relax and allow your mind to slow down,

1376
02:36:16.040 --> 02:36:23.719
which in turn releases the tension and he stresses that

1377
02:36:23.920 --> 02:36:33.600
you had in your body. It's almost as if the

1378
02:36:33.719 --> 02:36:38.680
parts of your body just open up, allowing the negativity

1379
02:36:39.040 --> 02:36:50.879
out and at the same time replacing that negativity with

1380
02:36:51.559 --> 02:37:01.159
positive heathing energy, which then fills your body up and

1381
02:37:01.319 --> 02:37:13.440
your mind to also starts to appreciate those feelings of

1382
02:37:14.719 --> 02:37:34.200
increasing confidence, an almost uplifting feeling, positive healing, an energy

1383
02:37:34.600 --> 02:37:45.120
that spreads through your body like a wave of comfort.

1384
02:37:49.959 --> 02:37:59.639
And all this comes from just allowing yourself a few

1385
02:37:59.719 --> 02:38:04.760
minutes it's maybe half an hour, however long you want

1386
02:38:04.840 --> 02:38:17.639
it to be, to just rest and allow your mind

1387
02:38:17.840 --> 02:38:28.559
and your body to almost reset itself to the settings

1388
02:38:28.760 --> 02:38:44.319
of comfort and relaxation, calmness, which allows more room for

1389
02:38:45.719 --> 02:38:57.719
feelings of pleasure and happiness to move around your body

1390
02:38:59.520 --> 02:39:05.959
and into your mind, almost as if your mind and

1391
02:39:06.079 --> 02:39:17.600
your body are sinking together, almost mirroring each other with

1392
02:39:18.079 --> 02:39:32.479
that growing positivity and calmness. And it feels nice, really

1393
02:39:32.600 --> 02:39:38.479
does feel nice to know that you are the one

1394
02:39:38.600 --> 02:39:51.799
that has allowed yourself to feel more comfort and to

1395
02:39:52.159 --> 02:40:05.600
experience more of this deep, real laxation spreading throughout your body.

1396
02:40:12.639 --> 02:40:17.959
And as I focus on each part of your body,

1397
02:40:20.360 --> 02:40:32.399
you can notice that that part becomes even more relaxed

1398
02:40:34.399 --> 02:40:43.280
just by focusing on it. It becomes even more calm

1399
02:40:43.520 --> 02:40:54.239
and comfortable just by focusing. And as I move down

1400
02:40:54.479 --> 02:41:02.079
your body, starting at your head, the parts that you've

1401
02:41:02.399 --> 02:41:12.319
already focused on will continue to relax deeply, and those

1402
02:41:12.520 --> 02:41:19.159
parts that we've not yet focused on or just automatically

1403
02:41:23.000 --> 02:41:31.760
release any remain intention in anticipation of even more comfort

1404
02:41:33.079 --> 02:41:43.799
about to come. Now, I'm going to start by focusing

1405
02:41:44.479 --> 02:41:50.920
on your forehead, just being aware of the feelings of

1406
02:41:51.040 --> 02:42:01.319
your forehead and any background sounds like mister Herbert the

1407
02:42:01.440 --> 02:42:06.760
pigeon can just allow you to feel even more relaxed.

1408
02:42:10.680 --> 02:42:16.799
Just means you in the moment, this isn't this isn't

1409
02:42:16.840 --> 02:42:24.799
a sterile environment. This is the world. I live in

1410
02:42:24.920 --> 02:42:37.200
the countryside, so there's lots of nature sounds around. So

1411
02:42:37.319 --> 02:42:42.360
as you focus on your forehead, just notice how it

1412
02:42:42.680 --> 02:42:52.600
becomes even more relaxed as you focus only on my

1413
02:42:52.879 --> 02:43:02.399
voice and that part of your body. Moving down to

1414
02:43:02.559 --> 02:43:14.879
your eyes, focusing on your eyes, noticing how the your

1415
02:43:14.959 --> 02:43:22.760
eyelids feel so heavy yet so light at the same time,

1416
02:43:26.159 --> 02:43:36.799
and all the muscles around your eyes relaxing completely. Moving

1417
02:43:36.920 --> 02:43:44.079
your focus down to your mouth, your lips, your tongue,

1418
02:43:45.319 --> 02:43:53.239
your teeth, and your gums, the whole of your mouth relaxing,

1419
02:43:56.760 --> 02:44:06.959
calm and loose. As you focus now on your jaw,

1420
02:44:10.079 --> 02:44:13.600
not just the parts of your jaw near your mouth

1421
02:44:14.440 --> 02:44:18.760
and your chin, but all the way up the size

1422
02:44:18.799 --> 02:44:25.639
of your face to your ears, the hole of your jaw,

1423
02:44:28.280 --> 02:44:55.799
feeding more relaxed, calm. Focusing on your neck, the front

1424
02:44:55.920 --> 02:45:04.559
of your neck and your throat accent and loose and calm.

1425
02:45:08.719 --> 02:45:14.520
The sides of your neck, the right and left side

1426
02:45:14.680 --> 02:45:33.000
of your neck relax and loose and calm and now

1427
02:45:33.319 --> 02:45:40.079
the back of your neck. Focusing on the back of

1428
02:45:40.200 --> 02:45:50.399
your neck, letting go of any tension that may have

1429
02:45:50.559 --> 02:46:03.120
been there before, and enjoying that sense of increasing comfort

1430
02:46:03.920 --> 02:46:11.159
and release that you can experience in the back of

1431
02:46:11.239 --> 02:46:24.120
your neck, moving down your back and moving either side

1432
02:46:24.159 --> 02:46:28.239
of your spine right from the top of your back

1433
02:46:30.200 --> 02:46:33.799
all the way down to the bottom of your back

1434
02:46:39.879 --> 02:46:51.159
down to your lower back. And as you move up

1435
02:46:51.239 --> 02:46:59.959
and down your spine, you can feel the muscles, even

1436
02:47:00.079 --> 02:47:13.440
the side of your spine relaxing even more. And as

1437
02:47:13.520 --> 02:47:20.680
those muscles relax, that sense of comfort starts to spread

1438
02:47:22.280 --> 02:47:30.639
outwards from your spine into both sides of your back,

1439
02:47:34.440 --> 02:47:38.120
the top of your back, the middle and your lower back.

1440
02:47:41.639 --> 02:47:48.760
And as you scan gently and slowly up and down

1441
02:47:48.959 --> 02:47:54.000
your back, there's the muscles in the top of your

1442
02:47:54.120 --> 02:48:04.079
back relax and become looser. The muscles in the middle

1443
02:48:04.120 --> 02:48:11.440
of your back also seem to just almost divide from

1444
02:48:11.479 --> 02:48:24.879
each other, separating and almost melting, and in your lower

1445
02:48:25.000 --> 02:48:36.520
back there seems to be an extra special feeling of comfort.

1446
02:48:41.799 --> 02:48:47.959
The spreads into your hips, so down your lower back,

1447
02:48:48.280 --> 02:48:56.239
into your hips, into the area where your cosis are,

1448
02:49:00.079 --> 02:49:08.959
into your buttocks, and all these muscles that spread from

1449
02:49:09.000 --> 02:49:18.479
your lower back into your hip area start to melt,

1450
02:49:22.959 --> 02:49:35.239
start to really let go. I don't even nowhere about

1451
02:49:35.399 --> 02:49:41.399
to focus on your shoulders. Your back and your spine

1452
02:49:42.440 --> 02:49:59.239
will continue to let go, continue to relax so calmly.

1453
02:50:03.920 --> 02:50:08.840
And as you focus on your shoulders, you may notice

1454
02:50:09.079 --> 02:50:33.200
that they're already feeding, really loose. They're already feeding, calm

1455
02:50:39.559 --> 02:50:52.280
and feeding those muscles. Then move from your neck into

1456
02:50:52.360 --> 02:51:17.760
your shoulders. You're so soft and gentle, so smooth and calm,

1457
02:51:29.159 --> 02:51:41.680
and the feeling in your shoulders seems to spread deep

1458
02:51:41.959 --> 02:51:51.719
into your shoulders, that sense of relaxation, not just traveling

1459
02:51:52.239 --> 02:52:09.479
deeply into your muscles, but also relaxing the bones and

1460
02:52:09.760 --> 02:52:18.479
moving all away to underneath your arms, relaxing that whole

1461
02:52:18.680 --> 02:52:23.680
area between the tops of your shoulders and underneath your

1462
02:52:23.840 --> 02:52:43.639
arms healing. You feel so relaxed and comfortable in your shoulders.

1463
02:52:47.159 --> 02:53:09.319
Who sends that deep healing message into your arms and

1464
02:53:09.520 --> 02:53:14.479
you may feel almost as if your arms are not

1465
02:53:14.680 --> 02:53:33.319
even there because they're so relaxed, so deeply relaxed, so

1466
02:53:37.600 --> 02:54:14.120
so calm, so loose, not feeling spreading all the way

1467
02:54:14.399 --> 02:54:39.120
down your arms, two elbows, including your elbows, circumforts spreads

1468
02:54:44.120 --> 02:54:54.639
or away into your wrists, your forearments and your wrists

1469
02:55:00.280 --> 02:55:17.120
feeling so heavy, yet at the same time so light

1470
02:55:20.360 --> 02:56:23.319
and gentle. Focus Now on your hands, my hands, so

1471
02:56:24.719 --> 02:56:52.879
peaceful in your hands. There's a sense of real peace.

1472
02:57:04.639 --> 02:57:18.399
It just seems to feel so familiar when your hands

1473
02:57:18.760 --> 02:58:55.760
relax deeply. Is your things? A thing? Is silence? You

1474
02:58:55.959 --> 02:59:29.440
think it's hips. Moving your attention to the front of

1475
02:59:29.600 --> 03:01:19.120
your body, so comfortable, moving your focus to le what

1476
03:01:19.639 --> 03:02:14.239
muscles in your thighs, your knees, so relaxed, a calf

1477
03:02:14.479 --> 03:04:22.079
muscles and just shins co puzy the four and the

1478
03:04:22.319 --> 03:04:43.280
faathing and your feet, sir, peaceful, so calm, so peaceful,

1479
03:04:50.399 --> 03:05:44.200
so calm m so peaceful, syclm so peace fa rea

1480
03:05:45.159 --> 03:06:09.959
sin peace fall scme. Allowing that deep relaxation to spread

1481
03:06:10.239 --> 03:06:42.680
your chest, in your stomach, letting go of everything. So

1482
03:06:42.760 --> 03:06:49.120
I'm gonna start counting down now, from twenty down to one.

1483
03:06:55.040 --> 03:06:58.239
You can imagine in a way it's like just walking

1484
03:06:58.360 --> 03:07:04.200
down some steps and each step or twenty steps, and

1485
03:07:04.319 --> 03:07:14.680
each step represents a level of comfort, each step represents

1486
03:07:17.280 --> 03:07:29.760
a deepening of that comfort, and the furvies you walk

1487
03:07:29.840 --> 03:07:35.559
down those steps that a deeper and more relaxed you feel.

1488
03:07:42.280 --> 03:10:17.079
So starting with number twenty twenty nineteen eighteen seventeen sicksting

1489
03:11:32.680 --> 03:16:33.799
three four four teen too well five eight.

1490
03:17:38.920 --> 03:20:41.559
Nine eight seven.

1491
03:20:00.440 --> 03:21:43.600
Us six.

1492
03:22:34.399 --> 03:23:54.239
Five four.

1493
03:25:11.479 --> 03:27:32.280
Four one.

1494
03:28:21.840 --> 03:28:38.680
And now as you focus on your eyes, we're going

1495
03:28:38.760 --> 03:28:50.360
to count down from ten douts one, focusing just on

1496
03:28:50.520 --> 03:29:01.440
your eyes, your eyelids, the muscles around your eyes, your

1497
03:29:01.559 --> 03:29:10.559
eyeslls themselves, our whole area that makes up your eye.

1498
03:29:21.479 --> 03:29:26.719
And as we count down from ten down to one,

1499
03:29:29.280 --> 03:29:43.239
whilst focusing on your eyes, you'll become twice is relaxed

1500
03:29:45.479 --> 03:29:58.520
with each number counting down that you may find the

1501
03:29:58.680 --> 03:30:05.159
ay you want to is just drift off to sleep.

1502
03:30:08.159 --> 03:30:14.760
And if that's what you want, then just allow yourself

1503
03:30:14.879 --> 03:30:29.520
to do that. Now, focusing on your eyes, I'm going

1504
03:30:29.639 --> 03:30:39.600
to begin counting down from ten down to one right now,

1505
03:30:48.159 --> 03:32:57.079
ten nine eight seven s.

1506
03:34:47.079 --> 03:35:58.639
Five four.

1507
03:36:52.920 --> 03:40:02.399
E three two one two. Counting down from ten to

1508
03:40:02.520 --> 03:40:29.079
one ten nine eight seven six five four three two one.

1509
03:40:36.079 --> 03:40:39.000
And maybe that was a bit too quick in order

1510
03:40:39.079 --> 03:40:42.959
to relax. Maybe it's a bit too fast for you

1511
03:40:43.319 --> 03:40:53.000
to notice the calming of your body, maybe even a

1512
03:40:53.079 --> 03:40:56.879
little bit of pressure there, like you're counting down from

1513
03:40:56.959 --> 03:40:59.639
ten to one. Would you expect me to do? Man,

1514
03:41:00.559 --> 03:41:04.239
expect me to STI go with floppy just because you're

1515
03:41:04.360 --> 03:41:13.840
counting down. We can try again, but this time I

1516
03:41:13.959 --> 03:41:21.120
go this lower. This time, as you focus on the

1517
03:41:21.280 --> 03:41:25.399
whole of your body before we focus on your legs.

1518
03:41:27.840 --> 03:41:37.040
Just notice how your body does start to feel more

1519
03:41:37.479 --> 03:42:45.120
relaxed with every number that I count down ten nine, eight, seven, six, five, four, three.

1520
03:42:58.319 --> 03:42:58.719
Two.

1521
03:43:19.479 --> 03:43:36.600
One, And just notice how how you feel, generally, how

1522
03:43:36.639 --> 03:43:51.200
your body feels. It's not necessarily even about counting down

1523
03:43:51.440 --> 03:43:58.000
from ten to one. It's that space that you have,

1524
03:43:59.360 --> 03:44:17.840
that space between being active physically or mentally to just

1525
03:44:22.559 --> 03:44:27.719
sitting or lying down, just being there, not doing anything,

1526
03:44:27.920 --> 03:44:34.559
not saying anything, or needing to think about anything. So

1527
03:44:35.239 --> 03:44:38.280
it opens up a space, you know, a bit of

1528
03:44:38.319 --> 03:44:49.319
a space, a gap. And the more I came down

1529
03:44:49.360 --> 03:44:56.719
from ten to one, the bigger that gap becomes. So

1530
03:44:56.879 --> 03:45:09.280
there's that gap of calmness, of comfort, relaxation. It's a

1531
03:45:09.399 --> 03:45:23.440
nice feeling, and it moves those stresses or discomforts physically

1532
03:45:23.639 --> 03:45:35.760
or emotionally, moves them away. Allows you.

1533
03:45:38.479 --> 03:45:39.000
To just.

1534
03:45:41.959 --> 03:45:48.680
Slow down. Someone to count again from ten down to one,

1535
03:45:49.120 --> 03:45:59.319
and notice that gap widening the gap, and as it widens,

1536
03:45:59.399 --> 03:46:05.440
it's almost like the stress and attention falls into the

1537
03:46:05.559 --> 03:47:02.239
gap and gives you that distance, that space. Now ten nine, eight, seven, six,

1538
03:47:15.000 --> 03:48:36.479
five four three two one. How does your body feel.

1539
03:48:38.440 --> 03:48:38.600
Now?

1540
03:48:51.319 --> 03:49:06.600
Can you notice that you feeling calmer, the feeling more

1541
03:49:07.040 --> 03:49:34.440
relaxed as we now focus on your legs, just your legs.

1542
03:49:50.399 --> 03:50:10.559
We're just gonna start with focusing on your thighs. Of course,

1543
03:50:10.680 --> 03:50:15.559
it's not the most exciting thing to be doing, because

1544
03:50:19.000 --> 03:50:21.639
I'm sure, like most of your body is not a

1545
03:50:21.799 --> 03:50:34.200
lot going on right now. Just focusing on the whole

1546
03:50:34.319 --> 03:50:40.719
of your thighs, the tops of your thighs, the sides

1547
03:50:40.879 --> 03:50:47.840
of your thighs, the bottoms of your thighs, your outer thighs,

1548
03:50:47.959 --> 03:50:52.879
and you're inner thighs, basically the whole of your thigh

1549
03:50:53.000 --> 03:51:01.760
that leads into your hip. I mean those down to

1550
03:51:01.959 --> 03:51:16.000
your knee joints. Now, this is a big area. It's

1551
03:51:16.040 --> 03:51:21.520
a very heavy area. It's very strong, probably the strongest

1552
03:51:22.520 --> 03:51:35.680
muscles in your body or in your thighs. But I

1553
03:51:35.760 --> 03:51:44.079
don't think we perhaps give enough attention to our thighs.

1554
03:51:50.000 --> 03:52:00.760
Perhaps we don't acknowledge how important our thighs are to

1555
03:52:00.959 --> 03:52:21.559
our lives. How much they actually do for us all

1556
03:52:21.680 --> 03:52:32.120
through our lives. And it may seem to sound really weird,

1557
03:52:32.200 --> 03:52:40.600
but I think that all of our body parts, especially

1558
03:52:40.719 --> 03:52:48.360
our thighs, need some TLC, a bit of love shown,

1559
03:52:49.360 --> 03:53:07.559
a bit of acknowledgement, thank you, gratitude for what our

1560
03:53:07.719 --> 03:53:17.040
thighs do for us. And I know this may sound

1561
03:53:17.120 --> 03:53:23.600
a strange. Maybe you think, why am I Surely I

1562
03:53:23.639 --> 03:53:28.799
should be out in the garden hugging a tree or something. Well,

1563
03:53:32.959 --> 03:53:35.200
it's hard to set a microphone up on a tree.

1564
03:53:36.280 --> 03:53:38.479
That's why I'm doing this indoors. Otherwise I would be

1565
03:53:38.559 --> 03:53:42.280
outside hugging a tree. Now I can't see the television

1566
03:53:42.319 --> 03:53:50.920
from the tree. If you move down to your knees

1567
03:53:52.840 --> 03:54:00.760
getting such an important part, and I think we don't

1568
03:54:00.840 --> 03:54:08.680
necessarily I'll speak for myself here. I don't necessarily appreciate

1569
03:54:10.479 --> 03:54:15.559
all that my nees do for me until I have

1570
03:54:15.680 --> 03:54:19.079
a problem with my knee. It's occasionally if I ever

1571
03:54:20.680 --> 03:54:24.639
maybe i'll pash it or it's aching for some reason.

1572
03:54:26.360 --> 03:54:32.559
It's then that I realize how much it does. You know,

1573
03:54:32.639 --> 03:54:38.600
the benefit of being able to use my legs without

1574
03:54:40.360 --> 03:54:47.600
any kind of physical discomfort is a beautiful thing. That's

1575
03:54:47.840 --> 03:54:56.200
possibly not appreciated until it's temporarily removed. You know that's comfort.

1576
03:55:00.280 --> 03:55:04.920
But as you focus on your knees, regardless of how

1577
03:55:05.000 --> 03:55:12.520
your knees feel, you can have that sense of gratitude

1578
03:55:14.040 --> 03:55:16.639
and love to your knees for all that they do

1579
03:55:16.840 --> 03:55:29.840
for you. And you can still have that attention on

1580
03:55:29.959 --> 03:55:36.159
your thighs and maybe notice how your thighs feel. Maybe

1581
03:55:36.479 --> 03:55:53.879
you've noticed that they are relaxing more deeply as you

1582
03:55:54.040 --> 03:55:59.239
focus now on the bottoms of your legs, your shins,

1583
03:56:00.120 --> 03:56:06.600
and your calf muscles, the bones between your knees and

1584
03:56:06.719 --> 03:56:20.280
your feet, incorporating of course, your ankles so important. Anyone

1585
03:56:20.360 --> 03:56:26.639
that's had even the slightest sprain of an ankle knows

1586
03:56:26.920 --> 03:56:38.840
how how much we take our ankles for granted. And

1587
03:56:38.959 --> 03:56:41.280
it's kind of strange in a way when you think that.

1588
03:56:43.840 --> 03:56:47.799
You know, logically, our wrists are a lot thinner than

1589
03:56:47.920 --> 03:56:52.000
the rest of our arms, which is okay, it doesn't

1590
03:56:52.520 --> 03:56:55.559
I can't see any problem with that because we're just

1591
03:56:55.719 --> 03:57:03.360
picking stuff up. But our ankles so much thinner than

1592
03:57:03.399 --> 03:57:12.479
the rest of our legs, and from a physics perspective

1593
03:57:13.760 --> 03:57:17.920
or logical even it doesn't really make sense that all

1594
03:57:18.040 --> 03:57:26.760
this weight would ultimately be resting on your ankles then

1595
03:57:26.879 --> 03:57:40.040
leading to your feet. That thin area, thin bone. Yeah,

1596
03:57:40.120 --> 03:57:45.799
it does so much great work. Supports us, supports our

1597
03:57:45.920 --> 03:57:57.760
body for a lifetime, helps us to balance, helps you

1598
03:57:57.959 --> 03:58:11.239
to get around and be mobile. And there's the calf muscles.

1599
03:58:11.280 --> 03:58:18.879
Of course, when I was younger, I couldn't see the

1600
03:58:18.959 --> 03:58:24.040
point in calf muscles. Didn't seem to do anything. Okay,

1601
03:58:25.159 --> 03:58:28.680
if I walked around on tiptoes, then my calf muscles

1602
03:58:28.760 --> 03:58:32.280
get some work. But of course that's not true. The

1603
03:58:32.399 --> 03:58:36.760
calf muscles are being used whenever we use her legs

1604
03:58:42.360 --> 03:58:55.000
and your shins there to protect your lower legs, shaped

1605
03:58:55.040 --> 03:58:59.760
in a way, almost as a protector for the bone,

1606
03:59:07.360 --> 03:59:19.239
leading of course to your ankles and your feet. But

1607
03:59:19.319 --> 03:59:21.239
we're not going to focus on your feet. We're just

1608
03:59:21.319 --> 03:59:27.479
going to focus on the legs. And I realize that

1609
03:59:27.600 --> 03:59:31.639
now that I've mentioned your feet, you'll probably focusing on

1610
03:59:31.799 --> 03:59:35.000
them anyway, So maybe I should focus on your feet

1611
03:59:35.000 --> 03:59:41.120
a little bit. You can have them in your awareness

1612
03:59:43.319 --> 03:59:47.000
the same as you have your thighs in your awareness.

1613
03:59:47.840 --> 03:59:51.680
Even though we haven't been focusing on your thighs for

1614
03:59:51.719 --> 04:00:02.719
a few minutes, we've been focusing on your ankles. There's

1615
04:00:02.719 --> 04:00:17.840
still that sensation of comfort in your thighs, and this

1616
04:00:18.079 --> 04:00:27.280
that movement of energy because the thighs hold lots of

1617
04:00:27.360 --> 04:00:33.559
different sensations. Of course, there's the muscles, the big straw

1618
04:00:33.760 --> 04:00:45.760
muscles that we have in our thighs. But the skin

1619
04:00:47.680 --> 04:00:52.120
on the outside of the thighs, as in the outside

1620
04:00:52.200 --> 04:01:01.559
of all of our body, can be very sensitive, sensitive

1621
04:01:01.760 --> 04:01:14.680
to the touch, sensitive to temperature, and inside your thighs

1622
04:01:17.239 --> 04:01:21.959
the bones, there's the muscle, there's the blood, vessels, the

1623
04:01:22.239 --> 04:01:32.239
ar trees, all this stuff that's inside your thighs. I

1624
04:01:32.280 --> 04:01:35.760
guess sometimes it'd be nice if you could actually put

1625
04:01:35.840 --> 04:01:43.159
your fingers inside your thighs and a message, so you

1626
04:01:43.239 --> 04:01:46.719
can message on the outside, of course, but to be

1627
04:01:46.799 --> 04:01:49.959
able to get deep into the muscles and to be

1628
04:01:50.000 --> 04:01:55.159
able to just message inside your thighs, message in the

1629
04:01:55.239 --> 04:02:04.239
bones of your leg message or the veins, and just

1630
04:02:04.479 --> 04:02:17.159
gently healing your thighs, and you could move down message

1631
04:02:17.239 --> 04:02:22.760
and inside your knees, just message in those bones, but

1632
04:02:22.920 --> 04:02:29.920
with healing fingertips, spreading that healing energy deep into the

1633
04:02:30.120 --> 04:02:39.559
joints of your knees. Of course, there's the back of

1634
04:02:39.719 --> 04:02:44.639
your your knee, you know, the inside crease where your

1635
04:02:44.719 --> 04:02:52.280
knee is. It's a very sensitive area. Very it feels

1636
04:02:52.360 --> 04:02:56.360
very nice when you stroke it. That might be because

1637
04:02:57.239 --> 04:03:02.200
it's an area that's not really touched very often. It's

1638
04:03:02.360 --> 04:03:08.879
almost like a hidden part, that crease in your legs.

1639
04:03:08.959 --> 04:03:16.319
It's almost like a part that has a sensitivity, which

1640
04:03:16.360 --> 04:03:26.799
is a little bit different. Of course, it's protected by

1641
04:03:26.879 --> 04:03:38.280
your legs. So you can imagine putting your fingers into

1642
04:03:38.399 --> 04:03:48.079
that crease in your legs, that fold in between your legs.

1643
04:03:48.799 --> 04:03:53.399
You can just massage with your fingertips. Imagine your fingertips

1644
04:03:53.520 --> 04:04:04.000
going inside, massage in the muscle tissue. You can of

1645
04:04:04.120 --> 04:04:10.200
course fiel the the bones of your knees, healing through

1646
04:04:10.280 --> 04:04:22.920
your fingertips. And then as you go down to your

1647
04:04:23.040 --> 04:04:25.680
calf muscles. Now that's the part I'd like to be

1648
04:04:25.760 --> 04:04:32.120
able to really put my fingertips deep inside my calf muscles,

1649
04:04:33.600 --> 04:04:43.399
massage in every single tissue of that muscle, healing every part.

1650
04:04:49.360 --> 04:04:55.440
And then doing the same for my shins, massage in

1651
04:04:56.319 --> 04:05:03.280
gently stroking the bones, gently stroking them, healing in a

1652
04:05:03.399 --> 04:05:10.559
loving way, because they deserve to be treated as the

1653
04:05:10.680 --> 04:05:14.639
precious bones that they are. Because our legs are so

1654
04:05:14.840 --> 04:05:18.360
precious as in all the other parts of our body,

1655
04:05:20.840 --> 04:05:34.760
and more precious of any juel on the planet. When

1656
04:05:34.799 --> 04:05:42.559
you start to think about your legs in this way,

1657
04:05:47.200 --> 04:05:53.840
it can change your perspective. It might sound a bit

1658
04:05:56.920 --> 04:06:02.319
a bit silly to start with, idea of having love

1659
04:06:02.879 --> 04:06:12.239
for your legs, showing appreciation for your thighs, wanting to

1660
04:06:12.319 --> 04:06:18.920
be able to put your hands in your thighs, massage

1661
04:06:19.799 --> 04:06:25.319
the muscles and the bones, and to get your fingers

1662
04:06:25.639 --> 04:06:35.399
deep in there, releasing all tension, just to show how

1663
04:06:35.520 --> 04:06:42.920
much you care about your legs, how much you care

1664
04:06:43.280 --> 04:06:51.280
for what your legs do for you regularly, your knees,

1665
04:06:51.559 --> 04:07:00.799
your calves, your ankles, the strength of your your ankles,

1666
04:07:03.760 --> 04:07:08.440
considering how thin they are compared to the rest of

1667
04:07:08.520 --> 04:07:18.280
your legs, especially your thighs. Yeah, they're so strong, so flexible,

1668
04:07:22.079 --> 04:07:34.920
absolutely amazing things. Your ankles are truly a gift because

1669
04:07:34.959 --> 04:07:43.680
of what they do for you, supporting all that weight,

1670
04:07:45.680 --> 04:07:50.200
regardless of how what weight you are, even if you're

1671
04:07:50.200 --> 04:07:55.200
only ate stone, there's still a lot of weight for

1672
04:07:55.360 --> 04:08:02.079
these little ankles. Now, I'm a lot heavier than eight

1673
04:08:02.159 --> 04:08:12.799
ston double down, yet my ankles support my body all

1674
04:08:12.879 --> 04:08:19.280
the time, or they do give off a sigh of

1675
04:08:19.399 --> 04:08:24.680
relief when I sit down as I have my whole

1676
04:08:24.719 --> 04:08:34.239
legs do my feet feet also go, my toes clap.

1677
04:08:35.440 --> 04:09:03.879
I'm so happy. Your legs really are amazing. And I

1678
04:09:04.079 --> 04:09:07.959
know that talking about talking about your legs is probably

1679
04:09:10.479 --> 04:09:15.159
possibly among the most most boring things you've ever heard

1680
04:09:15.200 --> 04:09:23.600
anyone say. Possibly they're boring or not. Everything I said

1681
04:09:23.719 --> 04:09:40.399
is true. Your legs are amazing. Your legs deserve not

1682
04:09:40.799 --> 04:09:59.239
just respect, they deserve to relax deeply. They deserve to

1683
04:09:59.360 --> 04:10:04.079
take some time I'm out of the day to just

1684
04:10:04.479 --> 04:10:40.639
let go completely. Your legs really can relax. And because

1685
04:10:40.719 --> 04:10:44.639
the legs are so such a most, you know, very

1686
04:10:44.719 --> 04:10:50.440
important part of your body. When you relax your legs,

1687
04:10:50.559 --> 04:10:57.760
the rest of your body also naturally follows in that

1688
04:11:01.159 --> 04:11:12.319
a journey of comfort. I can feel it in my hips.

1689
04:11:13.719 --> 04:11:20.840
My hips feel really loose, and also my lower back

1690
04:11:20.879 --> 04:11:27.520
as well. My lower back really feels it feels stretched,

1691
04:11:28.639 --> 04:11:31.680
even though I'm just sitting in a chair and there's

1692
04:11:31.760 --> 04:11:37.000
no stretching as far as I'm aware that I'm doing,

1693
04:11:38.000 --> 04:11:40.559
but it's almost as if the muscles are just relaxed

1694
04:11:40.639 --> 04:11:46.239
so much that there is a natural stretch as the

1695
04:11:46.399 --> 04:12:08.680
tension has reduced a lot. And I'm now going to

1696
04:12:08.760 --> 04:12:16.200
count down from ten down to one, and you can

1697
04:12:16.319 --> 04:12:45.399
continue to fill wonderfully relaxed. Ten nine, eight, seven, six, five.

1698
04:12:49.719 --> 04:12:53.879
Four three.

1699
04:12:57.719 --> 04:12:57.920
Two.

1700
04:13:02.280 --> 04:13:20.000
Why relax? So I'm just going to count down and

1701
04:13:20.239 --> 04:13:24.719
fire down to one. And as a countdown, if you

1702
04:13:24.879 --> 04:13:31.760
just focus on the numbers, just the numbers counting down,

1703
04:13:32.840 --> 04:13:41.959
and notice how you feel in this moment as you

1704
04:13:42.120 --> 04:13:49.639
hear the numbers counting down, knowing that those numbers counting

1705
04:13:49.719 --> 04:13:59.840
down represent you feeling calmer, not just in your body,

1706
04:14:00.079 --> 04:14:08.360
but also relaxing your mind. I just notice how you feel.

1707
04:14:09.280 --> 04:14:15.159
There's nothing to do, there's nothing to say, there's nothing

1708
04:14:15.319 --> 04:14:58.360
to think about, starting with number five, four three two one.

1709
04:15:07.799 --> 04:15:20.239
And as you notice the gradual letting go the tension

1710
04:15:20.479 --> 04:15:27.600
in your body, you may also begin to notice and

1711
04:15:27.760 --> 04:15:36.760
be aware of how your mind is starting to slow down.

1712
04:15:39.239 --> 04:15:45.600
This is just a natural thing that happens. It's not

1713
04:15:45.840 --> 04:15:51.000
really a special procedure. It's just natural because as your

1714
04:15:52.319 --> 04:15:58.280
body relaxes, your mind also starts to relax. And the

1715
04:15:58.399 --> 04:16:01.719
more your mind relax is the more your body relaxes.

1716
04:16:01.840 --> 04:16:12.360
It's just a continuous circle of relaxation. And there's that

1717
04:16:13.639 --> 04:16:21.520
calmness that comes from relative quietness. You know, even even

1718
04:16:21.559 --> 04:16:28.520
if there's background sounds either your side online, it's still

1719
04:16:29.000 --> 04:16:34.280
going to be quite calm. You know, you haven't got

1720
04:16:34.319 --> 04:16:39.479
the television on, there's no music in the background unless

1721
04:16:39.520 --> 04:16:46.959
you're listening to the recorded with music. Of course, you're

1722
04:16:47.120 --> 04:16:49.239
very likely not going to be sitting in a room

1723
04:16:49.280 --> 04:16:53.840
with other people. Of course you might be, but generally

1724
04:16:54.040 --> 04:16:57.159
it's more ideal if you can do this on your own.

1725
04:16:58.879 --> 04:17:08.920
So notice distractions, and when you stop thinking about stuff,

1726
04:17:15.520 --> 04:17:25.760
relaxation automatically rises. A sense of comfort starts to grow,

1727
04:17:30.280 --> 04:17:36.959
and without trying to build it up into something fantastical

1728
04:17:37.360 --> 04:17:49.120
or something magical, this is just a natural process, something

1729
04:17:49.280 --> 04:17:59.440
that's easy to accomplish. In fact, it's almost you know,

1730
04:17:59.559 --> 04:18:06.399
there's sense of relaxing completely happens really when you put

1731
04:18:06.600 --> 04:18:10.479
no effort into it. It's not something that you can

1732
04:18:10.559 --> 04:18:22.200
really force. It's something that happens naturally. And part of

1733
04:18:22.639 --> 04:18:32.840
the process of this recording and others is simply two

1734
04:18:34.440 --> 04:18:44.799
allow you to take advantage of this space. This time,

1735
04:18:47.719 --> 04:18:58.719
it's just let go to just be here, to be

1736
04:18:59.360 --> 04:19:12.760
in tune with how you feel. Yet with the intention

1737
04:19:15.000 --> 04:19:26.440
of wanting to relax deeply, and maybe even to fall asleep,

1738
04:19:27.639 --> 04:19:32.799
depending on what it is that you wish for yourself

1739
04:19:34.559 --> 04:19:49.639
in this moment. As we know, relaxing is the majority

1740
04:19:50.879 --> 04:19:55.319
of the process of falling asleep. The actual falling asleep

1741
04:19:55.399 --> 04:20:02.200
part is the tiny bit of the end. The deeper

1742
04:20:03.479 --> 04:20:25.760
relaxed you become, the easier you find yourself drifting. But

1743
04:20:25.840 --> 04:20:32.479
you can also if you choose, stay focused on my

1744
04:20:32.719 --> 04:21:01.600
voice and really enjoy the process, gradually relaxing each muscle

1745
04:21:06.200 --> 04:21:33.079
in your body effortlessly and just observing the sensation of

1746
04:21:33.360 --> 04:21:48.959
letting go completely. This time, I'm going to count from

1747
04:21:49.200 --> 04:21:59.399
six down to one, and you can notice your mind

1748
04:22:02.000 --> 04:22:15.399
calming down more with each number that you hear me say, naturally,

1749
04:22:16.520 --> 04:24:58.000
feeling calm and slow, peaceful, six, five, four, three, two one,

1750
04:25:19.159 --> 04:25:32.479
being aware how your mind to slowed right down, sinking

1751
04:25:35.079 --> 04:25:55.399
deeply into relaxation. And as you focus on your mind,

1752
04:25:55.680 --> 04:26:05.639
you may notice that there are some thoughts still there,

1753
04:26:08.239 --> 04:26:17.760
maybe some stubborn thoughts that for some reason perhaps need

1754
04:26:17.840 --> 04:26:33.040
your attention. So what you can do is send love

1755
04:26:33.280 --> 04:26:46.920
to those thoughts. Sprinkle those thoughts with love. M all

1756
04:26:47.079 --> 04:26:52.680
petals from a flower, just sprinkle it over them. Petals

1757
04:26:52.760 --> 04:26:59.879
filled with love towards those thoughts, to let those thoughts

1758
04:27:00.079 --> 04:27:06.000
to know that you're not abandoned in them. You just

1759
04:27:06.479 --> 04:27:16.520
need them. You require them to just calm down, slow down,

1760
04:27:18.879 --> 04:27:33.719
quiet down for now. So as you focus on those

1761
04:27:34.479 --> 04:27:39.360
remaining thoughts, as we count down this time from seven

1762
04:27:40.280 --> 04:27:48.959
down to one. With each number, just imagine sprinkling those

1763
04:27:49.200 --> 04:28:08.639
flower petals of love, kindness, gratitude over those thoughts, which

1764
04:28:08.680 --> 04:28:14.639
will allow them to just melt away and relax deeply.

1765
04:28:18.840 --> 04:28:33.239
Of every number, those thoughts will become more and more relaxed,

1766
04:28:38.879 --> 04:31:03.000
starting with number seven, six, five, four, three two one. Yeah,

1767
04:31:09.920 --> 04:31:26.879
and as you now notice how relaxed your feeling in

1768
04:31:27.079 --> 04:31:48.600
your body, we're going to focus on your hands because

1769
04:31:48.719 --> 04:31:54.959
the more relaxed your hands are, the more relaxed your

1770
04:31:55.040 --> 04:32:15.799
body and mind are. And there's you focus on your

1771
04:32:16.000 --> 04:32:26.200
hands and your fingers. There's nothing needed to be done.

1772
04:32:27.159 --> 04:32:32.399
There's no clenching of fists or dancing the fingers or

1773
04:32:32.440 --> 04:32:45.920
anything like that. Yeah, it's just noticing and focusing on

1774
04:32:46.159 --> 04:33:14.319
your hands, noticing how they feel. Because the more relaxed

1775
04:33:14.759 --> 04:33:24.439
your hands feel, the calmer your mind feels, and the

1776
04:33:24.799 --> 04:33:38.880
more comfort you feel throughout your body. And you.

1777
04:33:41.599 --> 04:33:44.279
May have.

1778
04:33:48.279 --> 04:34:27.319
Already noticed you mind is starting to dress like sense

1779
04:34:31.360 --> 04:34:46.000
just on your hands and fingers, allowing them to experience

1780
04:34:48.720 --> 04:34:56.959
a real deepening of that relaxation in your hands and fingers,

1781
04:35:03.000 --> 04:35:25.319
more and more relaxed with each number from eight down

1782
04:35:25.439 --> 04:35:38.279
to one. We can almost feel that healing and relaxing

1783
04:35:38.759 --> 04:35:49.680
energy spreading into your hands and fingers, becoming.

1784
04:35:53.599 --> 04:35:55.159
Year more.

1785
04:35:57.080 --> 04:36:20.000
Relaxing with each number going down from eight down to one, drifting,

1786
04:36:23.720 --> 04:36:30.720
drifting again starting with.

1787
04:36:35.319 --> 04:37:30.759
Number eighth, seven.

1788
04:37:31.279 --> 04:40:36.520
H five, four three, just being here now, nothing to

1789
04:40:36.680 --> 04:40:47.159
think about, nothing to do, nothing to say, and everything

1790
04:40:47.520 --> 04:40:58.439
just feels calm. This is your natural state of being.

1791
04:41:02.119 --> 04:41:07.479
This is how you just normally feel when you take

1792
04:41:07.599 --> 04:41:16.040
away all that other stuff that we add, you know,

1793
04:41:16.159 --> 04:41:31.840
things like stress and worrying and overthinking, anxiety, tension, just

1794
04:41:32.159 --> 04:41:38.840
generally thinking about stuff. You take that away, which is

1795
04:41:38.919 --> 04:41:48.159
what we do. What we do now, you're left with

1796
04:41:50.959 --> 04:41:59.880
a real sense of peacefulness which comes to you very quickly,

1797
04:42:04.159 --> 04:42:14.959
because ultimately it's just a feeling, a feeling of comfort,

1798
04:42:18.959 --> 04:42:22.400
almost as if you've gone inside yourself and you've found

1799
04:42:23.119 --> 04:42:37.080
a special place where everything is peaceful, a place where

1800
04:42:37.200 --> 04:42:44.759
you can feel relaxed, and your natural sense of comfort,

1801
04:42:47.919 --> 04:42:55.319
a place where you can be you, where you can

1802
04:42:56.080 --> 04:43:02.720
accept yourself for who you are, the place where you're

1803
04:43:02.759 --> 04:43:13.200
not trying to please anybody else ever, a place where

1804
04:43:13.360 --> 04:43:22.720
you can actually not just love yourself, but in some

1805
04:43:22.919 --> 04:43:32.360
ways more importantly, you can like yourself appreciate who you are.

1806
04:43:41.240 --> 04:43:43.799
That sense of gratitude.

1807
04:43:46.080 --> 04:43:47.880
Is in the air all around you.

1808
04:43:55.319 --> 04:44:03.319
And that's also a place where you actually feel the

1809
04:44:03.680 --> 04:44:18.919
healing energy soaking into your body. Healing energy soaking into

1810
04:44:19.040 --> 04:44:29.000
your body, and that healing energy spreads through your veins,

1811
04:44:32.799 --> 04:44:39.639
traveling to each and every single part of your body.

1812
04:44:45.599 --> 04:44:50.200
When you start to realize that actually that healing energy,

1813
04:44:52.680 --> 04:44:59.040
it's not just entered into your brain, it's become part

1814
04:44:59.560 --> 04:45:10.880
of your brain, and that spinal fluid is now mixed

1815
04:45:10.959 --> 04:45:22.119
with healing energy, not just allowing you to feel so

1816
04:45:22.360 --> 04:45:34.240
much more relaxed and healthy in this moment, but also

1817
04:45:37.159 --> 04:45:45.720
you start to realize to actually, what's happening now without healing,

1818
04:45:46.759 --> 04:45:56.000
relaxing energy spreading through your body, it's actually changing your

1819
04:45:56.080 --> 04:46:05.759
life and suchually change in the way you're going to feel,

1820
04:46:06.639 --> 04:46:11.240
not just now, but tomorrow and.

1821
04:46:11.319 --> 04:46:12.000
The next day.

1822
04:46:13.919 --> 04:46:21.400
As your health improves, not just your physical health but

1823
04:46:21.520 --> 04:46:28.959
your mental health, things that used to bother you in

1824
04:46:29.080 --> 04:46:36.639
the past, for some reason, no longer have the effect

1825
04:46:37.159 --> 04:46:46.080
that they used to because something has changed deep within you.

1826
04:46:51.159 --> 04:46:57.560
Maybe things that used to cause you to feel anger

1827
04:47:01.360 --> 04:47:11.479
no longer have that power to control you the way

1828
04:47:11.560 --> 04:47:19.560
they seem to be able to before. As you realize

1829
04:47:20.599 --> 04:47:33.040
that you're the one who decides what affects you, you're

1830
04:47:33.560 --> 04:47:43.439
the one who decides to feel relaxed and calm when

1831
04:47:44.360 --> 04:47:59.240
you choose to enjoy noticing these natural developments of healing

1832
04:48:01.840 --> 04:48:10.439
continue to grow and improve your life day by day,

1833
04:48:16.319 --> 04:48:24.560
including of course, your ability to relax so much easier

1834
04:48:29.479 --> 04:48:38.639
and sleep in. It's the most natural thing in the

1835
04:48:38.799 --> 04:48:47.840
world to you, because for in, the sleep is something

1836
04:48:48.000 --> 04:48:58.840
that you've done so many times in your life, and

1837
04:48:59.000 --> 04:49:02.799
you know that you are born, as we all were,

1838
04:49:03.639 --> 04:49:14.959
with the ability to fall asleep naturally, were born with

1839
04:49:15.479 --> 04:49:27.959
that ability to just drift into a deep, healing sleep.

1840
04:49:33.919 --> 04:49:34.840
Even when we're.

1841
04:49:34.799 --> 04:49:39.479
Kids, sometimes will fall asleep and we don't even want

1842
04:49:39.599 --> 04:49:46.240
to try to stay awake. Maybe it's a birthday in

1843
04:49:46.319 --> 04:49:50.479
the morning, or it's Christmas or holiday or something we

1844
04:49:50.639 --> 04:49:53.040
look forward to. We don't want to go to sleep,

1845
04:49:55.319 --> 04:50:00.560
But the more we want to stay awake more, we

1846
04:50:00.840 --> 04:50:08.840
just start to drift. And the more you fight drifting

1847
04:50:09.720 --> 04:50:12.000
or you try to stop yourself from drift in a

1848
04:50:12.080 --> 04:50:25.200
safe the deeper and stronger that drifting becomes. Because we're

1849
04:50:25.279 --> 04:50:32.200
born not just with the need to relax deeply and

1850
04:50:32.360 --> 04:50:42.319
to naturally fall asleep, but it's our birthright, it's part

1851
04:50:42.360 --> 04:50:53.159
of our DNA, and sometimes as we get older in life,

1852
04:50:54.520 --> 04:51:08.080
perhaps at times we have the Britton relaxing completely. It's

1853
04:51:08.200 --> 04:51:21.279
not only a wonderfully pleasant experience, it's also really easy.

1854
04:51:32.639 --> 04:51:40.119
It's very, very easy to let go, because that's all

1855
04:51:40.200 --> 04:51:41.159
it is. It's just.

1856
04:51:44.680 --> 04:51:56.080
Deciding to let go. And when you press the play

1857
04:51:56.200 --> 04:52:06.439
button on my recordings, you have given permission for my

1858
04:52:06.680 --> 04:52:14.799
voice to relax you. When you press that play button,

1859
04:52:15.799 --> 04:52:24.200
you have given me permission for my words to effect

1860
04:52:26.759 --> 04:52:38.520
you in a positive, only a positive way, opening up

1861
04:52:43.799 --> 04:52:56.799
your mind too useful and healing suggestions.

1862
04:53:01.360 --> 04:53:01.959
They can have.

1863
04:53:06.560 --> 04:53:14.000
Such an amazing effect on how you feel right now,

1864
04:53:18.759 --> 04:53:28.560
as well as those changes that continue long after the

1865
04:53:28.680 --> 04:53:40.799
recording ends. Those changes within they continue to flourish and grow,

1866
04:53:45.360 --> 04:53:59.040
transforming your life in a positive, beautiful way, allowing you

1867
04:53:59.599 --> 04:54:05.880
to move forward in your life in the correction that

1868
04:54:06.279 --> 04:54:23.639
you choose for yourself this feeling, This feeling the you

1869
04:54:24.520 --> 04:54:39.759
in experience of safety, comfort, calmness. This feels so nice.

1870
04:54:49.000 --> 04:54:52.159
It's such a healthy place to be.

1871
04:55:00.080 --> 04:55:02.840
And that positivity.

1872
04:55:03.119 --> 04:55:21.880
Close within you. In an every day moving forward, you

1873
04:55:22.240 --> 04:55:33.279
had to find you're more relaxed physically and in your

1874
04:55:33.400 --> 04:55:43.400
mind is more relaxed. And it's not that you're thinking smaller,

1875
04:55:45.799 --> 04:55:49.400
it's just that your mind would be less clopped up

1876
04:55:50.479 --> 04:56:03.799
if unnecessary negativity, because from now your mind rejects negativity.

1877
04:56:07.840 --> 04:56:16.040
But now you're going to start noticing when negativity arises.

1878
04:56:19.880 --> 04:56:33.439
You can just say stop, stop and then negativity will

1879
04:56:33.560 --> 04:56:51.080
turn around and leave you alone. Stop and then negativity.

1880
04:56:53.400 --> 04:56:54.279
Will disappear.

1881
04:57:02.479 --> 04:57:08.919
And that you notice that you feel way more relaxed

1882
04:57:10.360 --> 04:57:27.639
than you probably expected. Now, congratulate yourself because you're the person.

1883
04:57:27.959 --> 04:57:28.799
That has done this.

1884
04:57:30.560 --> 04:57:36.000
You are the one that has opened your mind up

1885
04:57:36.720 --> 04:57:44.919
to the simple facts. You can feel more relaxed in

1886
04:57:45.040 --> 04:57:55.000
your body and in your mind. You've opened your mind

1887
04:57:55.200 --> 04:58:00.119
up to the birthright of being able to check.

1888
04:58:00.040 --> 04:58:17.639
All asleep easily. Would you choose that's a nice feeling,

1889
04:58:19.319 --> 04:58:19.880
don't you think?

1890
04:58:22.639 --> 04:58:23.360
Who's nice?

1891
04:58:23.479 --> 04:58:33.439
Doesn't that do you feel? Wolf Using energy is spreading

1892
04:58:33.680 --> 04:58:44.479
for your body in your mind. Spend time now.

1893
04:58:46.119 --> 04:58:47.720

Where negativity can no longer in time. Activity is bad,
