Speaker 1: Hello, welcome to let Me Buy You to Sleep dot com.
0:07
Oh that sounds like a new website. It is a
0:13
new website. Oh oh oh yeah. My name is Jason Newland.
0:25
I haven't made a video for a while. I'm going
0:28
to turn this, put this down. That's it. It's not
0:33
so much light in my eyes. I don't know what
0:39
the picture is like. I hope it's okay. Just do
0:43
to look to see what's h who is that? There's
0:56
stuff in the background. I couldn't. I suppose I can
0:58
crop it anyway. Sorry. So, Hello, this is let Me
1:03
Boy You to Sleep. Vinnie's over there. I'm here h
1:12
And my stomach just made a weird noise for thumbreathing.
1:18
So I got this set up, got my microphone, which
1:22
I guess you can see. And my stomach is making
1:31
some weird sounds tonight for some reason. So I'm not
1:34
quite sure what time it is. Is about eight o'clock
1:37
on Saturday. The I think it's the fifth. Yeah, I
1:47
think it's the fifth of September two zero two five.
1:55
And the backdrop in case, because I'm going to have
2:02
to maybe put some kind of backdrop on the video,
2:07
you know, to make it look a bit better, because,
2:10
to be fair, that looks awful. It's not mold on
2:14
the wall. It's just the felt from where the soundproofing
2:19
used to be. That's what that is. Spent most of
2:30
the day when I was awake working on my website
2:41
and making some changes. In fact, I'm going to go
2:43
through it now so just so I can sort of
2:48
tell you what I'm up to. One of the things
2:50
I've been doing is uploading. While trying to upload all
2:58
of my recordings on to Google Drive, I've got two
3:04
terrbytes and so far I've used five hundred and forty
3:08
six point nineteen gigabytes. This is kind of going quite well, actually,
3:17
I thought. I'm just thinking though, let me boy to sleep?
3:30
Did they all let me boy to sleep? How many
3:39
did I get on there? One hundred and fifty one
3:42
to twelve hundred, right, so I've got twelve hundred let
3:47
me Boy to sleep audio recordings on this drive? Vinny,
3:54
what are you doing? It's making some strange sounds. The
4:00
other thing I've been doing is because I've been working
4:03
on my podcast, which is now the main podcast that
4:10
I'm doing. I've decided because I'm not going to be
4:18
having ones with music anymore. So I've decided that instead
4:23
of doing like six different versions and all that stuff,
4:28
just do one recording, but make it ten hours long,
4:34
so without music, So the recording however long that lasts,
4:39
and then the bits at the end where I'm just
4:43
talking and counting down and doing body scans and stuff
4:46
like that. So I've been changing over all of the
4:52
different podcasts on my podcast. It's taken a while, so
4:59
now I'm going to do I'm back on the twenty
5:02
fourth of August, so I've not really done that many,
5:07
but I can change the actual recording. This on there,
5:12
fourteen twenty one, fourteen twenty one, so no music, ten
5:21
hours okay, Vinnie woke me up, So that's good. So
5:25
I've got that that's uploaded now. Other than that, I've
5:38
been working on my website, let meboyd Sleep dot com
5:44
and trying to update the amount of let Me boy
5:50
to Sleep audios NP three's that you can download, because
5:55
at a moment, I've got one two hundred and ninety
5:59
six on there that you can download for free. So
6:06
and I've got I couldn't even tell you what I've
6:09
got altogether. Yeah, I can let me have a look
6:18
one two nine six, fourteen hundred and twenty eight, So
6:23
still quite a lot to do, which is fine. So
6:30
twelve ninety six, twelve ninety seven, this is what one
6:37
hundred and sixty, one hundred and fifty something like that,
6:41
So it's going to probably take a few days to
6:43
get that done. And then again, I'm just uploading the
6:50
five hour the ten Hounds without any music, so you
6:53
can download that for free. I don't know why I'm
6:58
making a video. I don't know why I look so hot,
7:01
because I'm not hot, just naturally red all year round.
7:06
It's beautiful. It's a beautiful thing. Oh yeah, I'm trying
7:17
to make changes, trying to make some changes. Oh by
7:20
the way, did I say only listen to this? I'll
7:22
watch this when you can, faithy clothe your eye. Yes,
7:28
it's very important because now I don't understand why. I
7:35
don't get it myself, but apparently some people find me boring.
7:43
They find my voice to be sleepifying, as it were.
7:55
I personally think that I've got an extreme me active, vibrant, excitable,
8:06
even invigorating voice. Maybe not so yeah, that's kind of
8:20
I mean, really fallen. Can you imagine if you took
8:22
me to court, said, oh, I watched that his podcast
8:26
and I fell asleep, and I'm taking him to court
8:29
because I fell asleep listening to his podcast. Oh what
8:32
was the podcast called? It was called let Me Bore
8:35
You to Sleep? Case this myth. I do believe it's
8:48
weird that I need to tell people, but you don't.
8:50
It's worth saying it anyway. I try and say it
8:53
every single time, just and I have done for like
8:58
nineteen years that I've been making recordings. Although I've not
9:04
been making to let Me boy the Sleep recordings for
9:07
nineteen years, but I have been doing them since two
9:10
thousand and eighteen. So I've got what's that nineteen, twenty
9:19
twenty one, twenty two, twenty five, So a few more months,
9:26
it'll be eight years. I've been doing this another October, November, December, January,
9:35
feb Yeah, six months, so I've been doing it seven
9:37
and a half years. I've been doing these let Me
9:43
Bore You to sleep. By the way, the window's open.
9:50
Two windows are open, so you may hear background sound.
9:53
There's not really much I can do about that, other
9:56
than I suppose I could close the window. But it's
10:00
kind of warming here I want the window open. I
10:04
like the air, a bit of a bit of hm,
10:08
fresh air. All look at that, it's two minutes to
10:12
nine pm. I didn't think it was quite as late
10:16
as that. I've only just eaten like a little while ago.
10:21
Itchy ear. So here's kind of what I've done. I
10:31
have retired from making hypnosis recordings or hypnosis videos. And
10:38
when I say retired, I was never an employed person
10:43
doing it. What I mean is retirers. And I'm not
10:45
going to do it anymore unless I just feel like
10:49
doing it, then I'll do what I want. But yeah,
10:51
generally my aim is to focus on these let me
11:00
bore you to sleep recordings and videos moving on forward
11:06
for the next ten years or so, hopefully hopefully longer.
11:13
So that's what I intend to do, and you can
11:17
all watch me get old. It would be brilliant. So
11:21
I'm fifty five now, just turn fifty five, BlimE me.
11:26
Ten days ago, No twenty six, thirty, thirty one, one, two, three,
11:33
four or five nine days ago? So nine days ago
11:37
I turned fifty five, and yeah, I did count on
11:41
my fingers, So what why got an issue? God got
11:44
a problem with that? So yeah, I doing masks in
11:48
my head. It's not so easy. I did go to school,
11:52
though hard to believe, but I did one two nine seven,
11:57
So I'm going to try. This is going to be
11:58
hard because I'm going to try right, and it is
12:02
what I'm doing here. I can't I say I can't
12:05
show you. I could show you how I'm doing it,
12:09
and I think the camera will be a bit wonky,
12:11
but sorry about that. I'm uploading the recordings to my website,
12:24
so I need to do now. Now that's saved, I
12:30
need to go back to one two ninety six, do
12:33
a duplicate and then change it to one two nine seven,
12:40
cut out the copy bit and then click as set
12:43
as active. Then as it comes on, I need to
12:49
change the description to one two ninety seven with the date.
12:55
Now I need to change the immage to one nine seven.
13:01
See one two nine seven one two nine seven. There's
13:07
an image in bed. It's that's the title of the recording,
13:12
fifth of March twoenty twenty five. I'm nearly caught up,
13:16
so it's quite good. I had lots already done, so
13:22
I just saved that. And now I'm going to go
13:26
to add a digital file, add a file, go to
13:32
my downloads because I've downloaded this from another podcast and
13:39
how upload it. In the meantime, I'm still working on
13:45
changing the file on my podcast from for Vinnie Woke
13:50
Me Up number fourteen to twenty one on the twenty
13:53
fourth of August, and at the same time as that,
13:58
I'm in the process of uploading all of these stress
14:03
and anxiety recordings. Where is it? Okayy, stress anxiety and
14:12
panic attacks. So it's nine hundred and ninety four out
14:18
of one three seven eight uploaded. So it's you know,
14:23
so I'm doing I'm kind of juggling these things together.
14:27
Been doing it all day, but it's very, very boring.
14:32
So I haven't been doing it all day. I have,
14:35
but I haven't, you know, if you know what I mean.
14:37
It's just I can do it for maybe half an hour,
14:43
and I just it's really really tedious. So what I
14:52
do now, as I go back to the podcast twelve
14:54
ninety seven, so I look for twelve ninety eight, I
14:59
go down and there and I found the no music
15:03
ten hours. So this is book Thief, Okay. So I
15:08
copy this copy of the title and then I download
15:12
the episode and that's what I will upload to the website.
15:17
There's a method here there is, it's not particularly interesting method.
15:23
What gets sweaty. I wonder why that is though, because
15:27
the TV is off that the TV generates a bit
15:31
of heat. There's two lights ones over there, but it's
15:35
not shining on me because it goes right. My glasses
15:37
just turn into these big I look like Superman. You
15:43
know what I mean by that is like I'm about
15:45
to shoot lasers out in the eyes, that kind of Superman.
15:49
And obviously I look like Superman all the time body wise, clearly. Ah.
15:58
And I'm just I'm trying to make this kind of
16:03
conversion over to or transfersion, trans transferring over to doing
16:11
the let me Boy to sleep only. Now, what I
16:17
realized is some people will still want to be able
16:21
to listen to the thousands of hypnosis recordings I've made
16:26
over the years, over the last nearly twenty years. So
16:32
what I've done is I'm also being trying to upload
16:37
those onto the website and it's going to be under
16:41
the archive. Does that make sense? I think it makes sense.
16:46
It makes sense. But I've got no intention of making
16:51
any more hypnosis recordings. Now. This is kind of what
17:00
I said yesterday as well, But m I keep going
17:14
back and forward with it, and when I say, let
17:19
me boy to sleep, I'm still going to be doing
17:23
boring objects, still be doing trivia Tuesday, still be doing
17:30
Q and a Friday, all the things that I kind
17:32
of to some people that watch or listen to me.
17:35
Rather because I normally don't make videos anymore. I used to,
17:43
and I've just been uploading the podcasts to YouTube that now.
17:51
I don't really know why I've done it tonight, but
17:54
for some reason I decided to just do it. And
17:58
here I am. What can I say other than sorry?
18:09
What has happened? What's going on? This is weird. That
18:13
wasn't supposed to happen. Twelve to ninety eight. I'm just
18:16
getting a little bit confused now. Twelve ninety eight, So
18:22
I need a picture twelve ninety eight Book Thief, No can't.
18:27
I'm trying to upload a video. See, I'm getting very distracted,
18:36
very hard to focus on what I'm doing. Book Faith,
18:43
book Fief, book Thief. That's the one, and feeling that
18:48
as well. There is I could show you what's on
18:52
my screen, but that'd be even more boring than telling
18:58
you what's on my screen. Well, maybe that's a good thing.
19:02
Maybe that that yeah, maybe that is a good thing. Ooh,
19:07
So I've taken Vinnie out three times today. It's been
19:15
a nice day. Actually, last night all glorious took him
19:23
out around seven o'clock, about seven o'clock, six seven. It
19:33
was so nice, so peaceful, a little bit of a breeze.
19:42
Saw some dog walkers that I kind of see fairly regularly,
19:48
so that's nice. And it was just nice. It was
19:56
like almost like the perfect weather. You know, I'm not
20:05
saying for every single day of the year unless it
20:11
rained in the evening then because we do need rain
20:14
and stuff, but for an early evening walk and early evening,
20:21
you know, it's it was just really nice, very calm.
20:32
What is this Friday nights is Saturday now, So this
20:35
was last yesterday, Friday, twelve ninety twelve ninety nine. See,
20:41
I'm still focusing twelve ninety nine. No music, five hours,
20:47
no music ten hours. Now. I understand this might for
20:56
those that are used to listening to me on my podcasts,
21:00
it might be a bit strange making these changes, but
21:10
my aim is to make a new recording every day,
21:15
possibly possibly a new video every day. I don't know.
21:21
Maybe possibly, potentially, maybe, And I think I'm far enough
21:38
back from the camera to to kind of make it work.
21:45
If the camera's too close, it's just like, really, you know,
21:49
it's just far enough the way back. So I've got
21:52
it attached to the other end of the desk or
21:55
the other side of the desk. It seems to be okay, Yeah,
22:03
it seems all right. You know, I didn't I didn't
22:11
even check to see if there's any boxing on boxing.
22:13
There's any boxing on tonight, Boxing tonight, one day ago,
22:26
boxing on TV Saturday. Oh there is, but that's in America.
22:37
The deep I want. I'm missing. I'm missing the boxing.
22:46
I'll watch it tomorrow because I'll be in bed when
22:48
I finished this, I'll be going to bed, so I
22:51
watch it tomorrow. It's McCormack against Ramirez. Damn it. I
22:56
just i'm kind of a little bit. I know that
22:59
there's on next week because it's a big it's a
23:05
big one next week. It's what's his name, Canello Crawford.
23:10
I've got it in front of me. I didn't know it,
23:12
but it's handy to have that memory. That's next Saturday.
23:19
But that's early hours of the morning and I'll have to.
23:23
I gotta watch it live because that's it's a huge fight.
23:27
It's for boxing. It's a huge, huge, huge fight. I
23:31
wonder what the undercard is for Canillo, Mabilly against Martinez,
23:38
Walsh against Vargas, Boha, Chuck against Adams, ditsch Co against Franklin.
23:48
It's a heavyweight Nelson against Santana. So I don't really know.
23:53
I know Franklin heavyweight. I don't really you know a
24:00
lot of them, but Billy super middleweight, superworweight, superwork wait heavyweight,
24:08
super middleweight, super fervweight. Yeah, I don't know. And in
24:12
Crocodernovan's on vacant IBF World Worldweight Championship. That's on the
24:20
Saturday night as well, but that's on UK time. Oh yeah,
24:29
cool Saturday, the thirteenth, I thought, I thought to the twelfth. Oh,
24:35
it's a sixth a day. It's not the fifth, it's
24:37
the sixth. Wow, I've never been so excited at being
24:42
wrong with a date. I don't know why. Well, let
24:47
me change so now one two nine eight is uploaded,
24:51
so now I need to change it over do a duplicate. See.
24:55
I wish I could show you the intricacies of what
25:01
I'm doing online, and maybe I will in the future.
25:05
Maybe i'll because there is a way of you know,
25:08
recording the screen. I forget the name of the is
25:16
it descript I could use to do that. So technically
25:22
I could do that and have my little my little head,
25:27
my little head. It's not very look it's it quite
25:29
a big head. But on in the corner. It's my
25:31
face game. And now I'm doing this. Look, I'm moving
25:36
the cursor and now I'm going to press enter. It
25:42
wouldn't be that exciting, but it's mm hm, you know,
25:51
you know what I mean, it might be worth doing.
25:55
I mean, I suppose technically I could perhaps start playing chess,
26:02
maybe drafts, to start with drafts, and maybe do that online.
26:08
I don't know. Oh, that didn't work. I tried to upload. Nope,
26:18
why am I doing this? It's because I'm not concentrating.
26:22
That's why upload new So it is twelve ninety nine.
26:28
So this is the image that I'm trying to upload
26:32
from my archives, twelve ninety nine. And this is for
26:38
Q and A Friday from the seventh of March twenty
26:42
twenty five. Save that, and now what I do is
26:49
I upload. This is more actions, add digital file, and
26:55
then go to downloads, change the file and now upload
27:03
it and now go back to one thousand, three hundred oops,
27:10
one thousand, three hundred.
27:13
Speaker 2: Okay, And it's just continuously doing it over and over
27:21
and over and over and over again.
27:24
Speaker 1: It's not the most stimulating thing to be doing. However,
27:32
once it's done, I will feel quite good about it
27:36
because once I've completed all of these and done the
27:44
same with all the hypnosis, the old hypnosis stuff, then
27:49
the job's done and all I need to do is
27:51
just upload one new recording every day or every time,
27:56
make a recording, and let me boy to sleep recording,
28:00
which is easy. Yeah, so it should be fine, that's
28:09
what I think. Oh, the sound podcast, which is now
28:16
on SoundCloud is saved, so I now go to good
28:20
Morning fourteen twenty fourteen twenty, So I need to replace
28:25
that file. So I go to fourteen twenty, which would
28:32
be in my downloads fourteen twenty ten hours. Nope, no music,
28:42
ten hours, good morning, that's the twenty third of August
28:47
twenty twenty five. It says, that's just kind of what
28:53
I'm doing. This is as said, it's not the most
28:57
exciting job, but it's not a job, you know, to
29:02
do a job. I'm doing a job. Once it's done,
29:09
then I can start focusing on I'd like to improve
29:19
the let Me Buoy to Sleep recordings, maybe have a
29:27
bit of a structure to them. But then maybe, maybe
29:32
possibly no structure is the correct way to go. I'm
29:42
not sure because even if I was to try to
29:46
introduce more of a structure, it would still be unstructured,
29:53
if that makes any sense. It's not going to be yeah,
30:02
still going to be all over the place. So I
30:08
mean there is there's a degree of structure when it
30:12
comes to if I do Q and A Friday, So
30:16
I ask questions, post some questions on my Jason Newland's
30:20
Boring group my Facebook group, so you can ask me
30:24
some questions and I'm answer them on Friday, and I'll
30:30
pretty much. But I think I had a couple of
30:32
weeks off in the summer during my stuff that went on,
30:38
But generally I've been pretty much consistent ninety nine percent
30:42
of the time with the Q and A Fridays. I've
30:47
done a lot of them, Trivia Tuesday, which is more
30:53
of a recent one, but I've apart from the last
30:57
couple of weeks. Last few weeks, I've been getting more consistent,
31:02
but technically less consistent with that, but that's just because
31:06
of how I've been feeling and what's going on. But
31:16
Monday's boring objects Again, I was getting pretty consistent with
31:20
those as well, So it is just something that I
31:23
will hopefully continue to do. Right, So I'm just going
31:31
to copy that thirteen hundred. See I am. I do
31:39
believe what they call in the industry a multi tasker. Yes,
31:49
oh no, I remember wow years ago, right when I
31:59
was building websits and my own websites. But I'd spend
32:07
thousands of hours working on this stuff every night. Not
32:11
thousands of hours every night, but you know, i'd finish
32:14
work and I'd be spending all my evenings and all
32:17
my weekends on building a website. And I knew when
32:25
it was time to stop because I just kept making
32:28
the same mistakes, just little mistakes. But then I couldn't.
32:33
I just It's almost like my brain just stopped working.
32:36
So that was quite good to know. Then I realized
32:42
that my brain never did work. Oh. Thirteen hundred. Sunday Summary,
32:51
ninth of March twenty twenty five, far the newspaper fart
33:02
heard from miles away. That's rude. That doesn't sound like me.
33:07
I wouldn't have I wouldn't have made an image like that.
33:10
Surely thirteen hundred. So add the go to downloads, click
33:19
on this. Ooh, that was nice, and that's done. Now.
33:29
This is probably quite a weird thing to watch on
33:33
YouTube as a video, because I don't know, it's just
33:45
me with my big pink face staring at you through
33:50
the window. No, it's weird. I don't know. The thing
33:57
is I think because with YouTube, the videos always get
34:01
more views than the podcasts. Even if I upload a
34:04
podcast or if I do a recording with images with spirals, whatever,
34:11
a video with me, a video, a video with me
34:17
in front of the camera gets more views than the
34:21
other ones. And I I don't understand really why. I
34:28
understand it. I understand why some videos not mine, but
34:32
other people's videos get lots of views because you know,
34:36
sometimes they're really attractive people in front of a camera
34:41
and it kind of wouldn't matter what they were doing.
34:45
They would still have an audience, maybe not the same
34:47
amount of the audience. But because that's superficial, but it's still true.
34:51
It still would have an audience because of how maybe
34:58
people like seeing them, maybe they've got a lovely smile
35:02
or the nice ears. I don't know. That's not why
35:13
I watch YouTube videos. I'll just let you know. I'm
35:17
quite into AI videos, like watching the artificial intelligence things.
35:28
I have got a little, a little secret pleasure. It's
35:33
a dirty little secret. Now it's not. It's it's these
35:38
auditors that go around on YouTube. They go around and
35:42
basically film stuff, film the police or get they get
35:47
stopped by the police because they're filming in public and
35:50
the police don't know what the law is about it,
35:53
and just things like that. I used to quite like that,
35:58
but now the auditors have gone more into filming the
36:01
public going around to especially like the protests and that's
36:07
going on around the country and going into different parts
36:11
of the country and different towns and cities. And it's
36:17
kind of interesting because I get to see places that
36:23
I wouldn't get to see normally. You know, I realize
36:27
it's only from like one perspective, But then I've seen
36:32
Manchester from quite a few different perspectives. Different people with
36:36
YouTube channels filming parts of Manchester or parts of London,
36:41
or parts of Leeds or Nottingham, Liverpool, Luton, so I've
36:48
kind of or Wales or Scotland, Edinburgh, Glasgow. So it's
36:54
not that it means that I know what it's like
36:56
to live there, because I don't, but it gives you know,
37:02
it's weird. I kind of feel like I know my
37:04
way around Manchester City because I mean I have been there.
37:15
I've been on a tram two thousand and five, I
37:20
think it was I went to a hypnosis course up in.
37:27
It wasn't Manchester, but it was outside of Manchester. But
37:30
I went to Manchester. So I to go to Manchester
37:33
from London. I guess was it King's Cross? Maybe to
37:39
Manchester and then I had to get another train. Oh
37:46
was it Bolton? Not Bolton? Oh I don't know, but
37:52
anyway it was. I liked it. I liked the area,
37:58
and I mean the area I went to, not not Manchester,
38:03
but the area I ended up in was kind of
38:05
quite run down. But I didn't mind that, if that
38:12
makes sense that they didn't didn't really bother me. Oh God,
38:17
I just got a memory, got two memories from going there.
38:24
I got three memories. Wow. And I've got a lot
38:30
of few memories now, isn't that weird? Opened that little bubble,
38:34
didn't I? And on the way there on the train,
38:42
I was on one of the local trains once I
38:47
got into Manchester going to Bolton, or to wherever it
38:51
was I was going to. I can't remember Bolton, maybe
38:53
nowhere near Manchester, so I apologies, but it was somewhere anyway.
39:00
And these two young lads get on and they couldn't
39:08
have been They looked like teenagers. And they sat they
39:13
kind of they sat down. One of them sat down
39:19
opposite two girls. I guess, I guess they're also teenagers,
39:22
sat down. The other one sat on the other chair,
39:25
and they said. One of them said to one of
39:30
the led girls, he said, you're really nice? You are
39:32
you really pretty? I was just wonder if I can
39:35
have a telephone number, and she said, oh, I've got
39:40
a boyfriend. Straight away, he looked at the other girl
39:47
said you're a really nice as what can I have
39:49
your number? Then, and the whole train started laughing. I'm
39:58
literally the train driver just stopped, walked through the carriage
40:02
and just high fived in because it was funny. It
40:05
was just so ridiculous. Both the girls were laughing as well.
40:09
I was laughing. It was so well timed, and it
40:15
wasn't weird, it wasn't creepy, it wasn't anything. It was
40:20
just funny. The first bit maybe you know, it was
40:25
like can I be telephone as I can phone you.
40:29
That's just like a really silly chat up line anyway,
40:34
but just to turn to her friend straight away. Honestly,
40:41
they the girls were laughing, the boys were laughing. And
40:45
I've already said this. I mean there were people when
40:49
the train stopped and the doors opened, there was people
40:55
on the platform laughing. That's how good it was. People
41:00
that hadn't even heard it were laughing. And then I
41:04
remember walked up to McDonald's. This once I was off
41:07
the train, and this was close to where the I
41:12
think I went through. I went to the hotel. This
41:15
is strange, right, I'd get off the train at the
41:18
train station and I've got this bag. It's quite heavy
41:21
because I've got like three days worth of clothes and stuff,
41:25
probably my laptop and I don't know what else. Clogs
41:31
and ironing board, parachute, you know, just general stuff that
41:36
you take for a weekend away at our training course
41:41
and hypnosis and there's a taxis. I stopped the taxi
41:47
it was a taxi outside, said can you take me
41:49
to this hotel? Police? I didn't know where it was.
41:51
That's something that I do is I give you a
41:53
little secret. If you're going somewhere and you've never been
42:00
there before, and when you get there, you've booked a hotel,
42:07
but you've never been there before, so you don't know
42:10
the area, you don't know where the hotel is, get
42:15
a taxi. That's my little secret. I don't know if
42:18
anyone else has cottoned onto this, but it's I think
42:21
it's an idea that I came up with all by myself.
42:24
So I said to this bloke, the taxi driver, can
42:30
you take me to the whatever the hotel was? I
42:34
don't know what it's called, the Smelly Bogie or whatever
42:37
it was. And he said, no, it's too close. I said,
42:43
what it says? Not worth my while? It's too close?
42:49
I said, can you just My attitude is if you're
42:58
for hire as a tax see, not as a human,
43:01
but as a taxi, you take me where I want
43:03
to go, and if it's just charged me more, it
43:09
doesn't matter. I would give tips anyway. But it's like, nope,
43:13
it's too it's too close. Yeah, but that means you'll
43:15
be backing, You be back sooner than doesn't it. No,
43:18
I want to I want a big fare. I want
43:21
a long journey. What should go around the block a
43:25
couple of times? Then? Uh huh? And he said, honestly,
43:30
it's just like it's a couple of minutes walk. It's
43:32
just across there. It wasn't It was a good like
43:37
fifteen minute walk with this big bag. Now some people
43:43
might have maybe done it in three minutes, but I've
43:46
never been a quick walker. But anyway, I dropped my
43:50
bag off. So I'm still a bit an order with
43:53
that taxi driver. I mean, twenty years, I should let
43:56
it go, shouldn't I really? And a look, no, I'm
44:00
still there just looking at my computer. Oh yeah, I'm
44:06
walking to the McDonald's. And it's kind of like on
44:10
this hill but there's lord these trees around, and it's
44:14
in the early evening but it's kind of March time,
44:19
so it wasn't dark. It wasn't light. It was kind
44:21
of you know me, you know, middle ish, and this
44:25
should be on a Friday evening. So I left. Yeah,
44:31
be Friday evening, so probably about six or seven, so
44:36
I might have had that Friday off. Well, I I'm
44:46
walking up and there's this man and this woman leaning
44:55
against a tree, and and the man's holding a woman,
45:04
and the McDonald's staff are all just standing out watching,
45:09
so there's a domestic going on. The staff aren't doing anything,
45:14
they're just watch him, just enjoying the show. So I
45:17
go up to the bloke because she's saying, get off me,
45:21
get off me. So I go up and said, look,
45:24
what's going on, you know, just like try and break
45:26
it up. And I said, can you just let her go?
45:33
He said no, Look, and she was holding him. She
45:37
had a vice grip on a part of his body,
45:42
so he wasn't going to let go over until she
45:46
let go over him. And after about ten minutes of
45:51
trying to negotiate with them, I just gave in. And
45:56
I think the McDonald's staff just called the police. And
45:58
I just went and had my time to eat. I
46:01
couldn't be bothered, like I don't trying to help, trying
46:04
to you know, First of all, I thought she was
46:06
in trouble. It turned out that he was more in
46:08
trouble than she was. And yeah, I just like the staff.
46:17
They were just like loving it, the chairs out, eating
46:20
popcorn and everything.
46:22
Speaker 3: Hm.
46:24
Speaker 1: So I'm trying to think of another memory of that place. Yeah,
46:39
I remember the tram because that was interesting because I
46:43
may have been on a tram when I was a kid.
46:46
That's possible because trams were around in were they around?
46:55
When were trams around? When did trams stop in Newcastle?
47:11
See if that nineteen fifty Okay, so let's say a
47:16
look London in London nineteen fifty two, so I was
47:22
born nineteen seventy, so they definitely weren't there London. What
47:26
about South End? Was there only in South End April
47:31
nineteen forty two? So yeah, again, I'm not say Manchester.
47:45
Trams in Manchester stopped operating in nineteen forty nine, but
47:52
no because it then it opened again in nineteen ninety two.
47:59
What the modern light railway Manchester Metrolink. So it isn't
48:05
a tram, but it is a tram. It's it's kind
48:16
of weird. It's it's I mean, a tram was a train,
48:18
wasn't it? You know what I mean? It's like they
48:25
still call it a tram in Manchester. They don't call
48:27
it a train, call it a tram because when I
48:32
was in ampstadam trams in Amsterdam. It dates back to
48:41
eighteen seventy five. Wow, London, right nineteen fifty two, the
48:57
Croydon tramlink was reintroducing two. I think the camera is
49:04
starting to move to one side, which is weird. Right,
49:11
Finny started barking, so I had to stop then, blessed?
49:16
Oh was it thirteen oh one? The thing is he
49:28
heard a cat mewing. It's kind of supposed to bark
49:38
in that scenario, isn't he notices I've got two bottles
49:42
of water. Now he's supposed to bark. That's kind of
49:50
his job to be annoying to let me know there's
49:57
a cat outside. Why would I need to know that
50:01
there's a cat outside? What possible reason could there be
50:09
for me to be needing that particular information, just just
50:15
asking asking for a friend. I'm ready for bed, To
50:32
be honest with you, it's twenty to ten. I'm not
50:37
only in bed by ten because I'm old now, and
50:41
I'm old thirteen oh one. I wonder how long it's
50:55
going to take for me to get all this this,
50:59
to get all of this done, to get updated because
51:06
I quite like the idea of it being finished. Nope,
51:12
I think some weird noises today. You yawning a lot
51:19
as well. I don't know why I'm telling you what
51:23
I'm doing. When I'm doing it, you can hear and
51:25
see what I'm doing. I don't know why. Anybody knows why.
51:35
I don't know why. Thirteen oh one, fourteen. I'll probably
51:44
get another fifty done tomorrow. Fifties. I'll probably about Tuesday Wednesday,
51:49
I'll have all the let me boy to sleep done
51:52
and then I can start working on some of the
51:56
other stuff. I like to think that by the end
52:04
of next week I can have Why do you keep
52:09
making that weird noise? I don't want that noise. I'll
52:12
turn a volume down. I like to think that I
52:15
can have it all done in time for the weekend
52:26
next week. I'm trying to dawn quietly, but I've just
52:34
nearly broke my glasses. Oh good, morning's done. So that's good.
52:42
So I can now move down to the next one.
52:46
This is on my podcast Q and A Friday, fourteen nineteen,
52:53
So replace the file fourteen nineteen no music ten hours. Yeah,
53:07
it's going to take a while. That this podcast on
53:11
its own is going to take me probably a week
53:15
or two to get that all updated. But once it's
53:19
updated is good. I mean the website, so look, so
53:25
I get rid of the box and stuff. If I
53:29
go on to the website Let Me Bore You to

So there's a few to choose from, but you can
59:03
definitely find it quite quick. So I'll stick on let
59:08
me boy you to sleep cool as my original picture,
59:21
which was of a little baby, let me boil you
59:25
to sleep. Perhaps I should go back to that lyrigy
59:30
and image. That was a good image. I think I
59:39
might go back to that because that was a good image.
59:42
Maybe I will let me bore you to sleep. Let
59:47
me save that image save. I just remembered I'm on camera. Sorry,
1:00:01
I forgot I hope I didn't scratch my bum by accident.
1:00:09
I've never scratched my bum by accident. Why will I
1:00:11
say that?
1:00:14
Speaker 4: Ooh ooh, all right, that's being done, so I'll work
1:00:29
on it later.
1:00:29
Speaker 1: So I think I might revert my let me broad
1:00:34
the sleep back to what it used to be the
1:00:36
original image of a little baby asleep. And because I
1:00:44
changed it. I think I had one of Andre then
1:00:48
I had one. Well, i've got one of Vinny. Maybe
1:00:51
if I keep one of the little baby, perhaps that
1:00:58
would be more better, you know, better? Maybe what I
1:01:05
got one three oh one, one three oh two. I'm
1:01:10
so behind one three oh two one three oh two
1:01:18
Childhood Are Home Tour. Wow, I remember doing that. I'm
1:01:27
righting this. This is about twelfth of March, like five
1:01:33
over nearly six months ago, and I remember making that recording.
1:01:38
In fact, I remember the image making the image because
1:01:41
the image is actually my house that I lived in.
1:01:46
It's a picture, like a photograph of my actual house
1:01:50
that I used to live in when I was between
1:01:52
the ages of nine and fifteen. And any image, which
1:01:57
you probably won't see unless you really look, you'll see
1:02:01
it now if I mention it here. Wait a second,
1:02:11
I'll get the image out. No, I'll tell you exactly
1:02:16
because there's some stuff I talk about in the in
1:02:22
the recording. Okay, I've got to get the image first,
1:02:31
and I can tell you. So image thirteen oh two,
1:02:39
thirteen two. So look barbas Vinny chewing on a bone
1:02:50
in case you're wondering what the noise was. So thirteen
1:02:56
oh two. So this is childhood home tool. And there's
1:03:03
a picture, so you might not notice when you first
1:03:08
look at the image. So it's a picture of my house.
1:03:14
It's I mean, there's differences now because I've not lived
1:03:17
there for wow, like thirty nine years or something stupid
1:03:25
like that. The house is still the same from the
1:03:29
outside from what I can see, but the doors are
1:03:32
different color, and probably the windows are being redone. I
1:03:35
don't know. So it does look different, but it's the same,
1:03:46
you know, it's still probably unless they've done an extension
1:03:49
on the back perhaps, you know, and it's going to
1:03:54
look different inside, you know, just places do, don't they.
1:04:02
Now if you open it really wide, you can see
1:04:08
at the very top there's me holding a pair of
1:04:11
binoculars looking out. But you might not notice that when
1:04:18
you first look at the image. Well, I say it's me.
1:04:22
It's not actually me, but it's oh no, what I've done.
1:04:28
I've messed it up. Right, That wasn't supposed to happen, right,
1:04:42
that all went wrong? Thirteen oh two, thirteen two, thirteen
1:04:55
oh two, Right, so thirteen oh two childhood home. So
1:05:01
I have to go back and do that again. Damn,
1:05:10
I'll change it back. But yes, I like to do
1:05:14
little things like that, just I don't know. It amuses me.
1:05:22
Also it fits in with some of the stuff I
1:05:25
was talking about on the video or on the recording. Mother,
1:05:30
So thirteen oh two, let's have a look and in
1:05:33
that video called that recording. Rather, I do give quite
1:05:37
an in depth tour of the property because I can't
1:05:42
remember it quite well, and I lived there for a
1:05:43
long time. You downloads thirteen oh two, change the name.
1:05:57
There we go, and now okay, still waiting for it
1:06:02
to process. This is number one four one nine on
1:06:06
my podcast. It's boring, isn't it. It's very very tedious
1:06:13
stuff going through all this. But once it's done, I
1:06:21
can just move on and do other things. Yeah, I
1:06:31
don't know what I'm going to do about the background.
1:06:32
I might just leave it in there, but I'm pretty
1:06:40
sure with the video editing software I can put in
1:06:46
a different background. So I might just do that, at
1:06:50
least for this video, and maybe in the future I
1:06:54
have a do something different. I mean, you know, I
1:07:02
could put a background in when there's dinosaurs just walking
1:07:05
around behind me, but I don't know how realistic that
1:07:09
would be. I'm not sure if you get fooled by it.
1:07:21
So I'm wondering. So if I just searched childhood ovens,
1:07:36
my childhood home sleeping broad objects ovens, why does that
1:07:40
come up? Then I'm just searching a website for things
1:07:43
sonn nothing, school, school, nothing, chip shop, search a chip shop. Nothing. Humm.
1:08:10
Now I'm wondering. Mmm. I suppose if I was to
1:08:19
put a description of the podcast and some of the
1:08:23
subjects that I talk about in on the Let Me
1:08:26
Boy to Sleep recordings. Then when you search for stuff
1:08:29
it might come up. Then, Oh it's possible, I suppose,
1:08:37
hm hmm, I'm not sure. Thirteen oh two, thirteen oh three,
1:08:52
no music ten hours. This one's the Blackbird thirteen oh three.
1:09:08
There must be some topic that comes up. Born. Not
1:09:19
sure what to do with your boy. It's twelve am, Buckinghamshire, hypnotherapist.
1:09:27
Your flat has now been sealed up. What that's very weird.
1:09:34
Your flat has now been sealed up? Wow, I forgot
1:09:44
about these. I used to do a vlog like a
1:09:48
blog called Dear Luke, and this is from February first,
1:09:54
twenty twenty four. Hi Luke, Yesterday my little alone arm
1:10:00
bell Vinnie warned me that something strange was occurring downstairs
1:10:05
and your flat. I heard some banging, so in downstairs
1:10:09
to investigate. Well, what did me in Flipper find? Someone
1:10:15
was changing the locks on your front door. I inquired
1:10:19
as to who he was, how who he he was?
1:10:24
At first he seemed a bit put out by my questioning,
1:10:27
but I explained that who I was, and I was
1:10:29
just concerned because of all the dodgy activity lately in
1:10:36
the building. He told me that the neighbors had reported
1:10:40
that the flat had been broken into and the contents
1:10:43
were being removed early hours of the morning in a
1:10:45
suspicious manner. So which is true, And so the council
1:10:52
decided to look it up and seal the kitchen window
1:10:56
which had name I think that's supposed to be bean
1:11:02
nime n e e M, which is name used to
1:11:06
gain entry a week ago, being used. Since then, the
1:11:11
front door has been unlocked for anyone to come and
1:11:14
go as they pleased. Your dad called me and asked
1:11:19
if I could remove the two paintings that you'll value,
1:11:22
And so it is this is me talking to Luke.
1:11:25
Your dad called me and asked if I could remove
1:11:28
the two paintings that you value and look after them
1:11:31
until your sister can come and collect them. So I
1:11:34
did that the day before. So now hopefully less traffic
1:11:39
in and out of the building during the night, no
1:11:42
more people creeping around about in the shadows. What is
1:11:48
Heaven like? Hope it's a bit warmer than our winters
1:11:52
down are, Otherwise you'll be asking to move to Hell.
1:11:56
Whereas warmer you know, you never did like the It's
1:12:01
okay for me. I'm a walrus. That's it. Really, I'm
1:12:06
completely skinned. Got paid yesterday and I only have ten
1:12:09
percent left to get me by bills, bills, bills. Funnily,
1:12:16
I'm out of toilet paper, which is strange considering how
1:12:20
much of the stuff I used to have a couple
1:12:22
of years back, I was supplying the whole neighborhood. Crazy.
1:12:27
Oh yeah, I broke my toe again a couple of
1:12:29
nights ago. I kicked the wall whilst streaming. I was
1:12:33
kicking something that was chasing me. My big toe is
1:12:37
a mess. I have difficulty walking, but other than that,
1:12:41
it's not too bad. Just another break to add to
1:12:44
the list. As for your flat, the council have left
1:12:49
a notice on your door saying that they are repossessing
1:12:51
it on the seventeenth of February twenty twenty four. I
1:12:56
think now they may be moving quicker. I wouldn't be
1:13:00
surprised if there's a new person in their body. End
1:13:03
of the month. Vinnie is waiting patiently for me to
1:13:07
take him for a walk, so i'd better go take care. Wow,
1:13:17
I forgot about that blog. When's the last time I did? Where?
1:13:28
But where? Where? Is the blog though. Back to blog. Okay,
1:13:33
back to blog. Local update. The last time I wrote
1:13:40
anything was September the eight of twenty twenty four. All right, okay,
1:13:57
here we go. This is swearing in this, so I
1:14:01
won't read it out the swearing bits. This is January
1:14:05
of the ninth, twenty twenty four. This is the first
1:14:14
entry of Dear Luke. Hi mate. Here, I am sitting
1:14:20
at my desk four ten am on a very cold
1:14:23
January morning. It's been over six six weeks since you
1:14:28
f In died. You be, I'm swearing. I must have
1:14:33
been grumpy. I still can't go my head around it.
1:14:36
How can you actually be gone? I mean you were
1:14:40
sitting here just over twenty four hours earlier, chatting to
1:14:43
me about all kinds of stuff. I've been told that
1:14:47
when you went back downstairs and knocked on emstore you
1:14:50
seemed really upbeat. EM and E both said that you
1:14:54
were joking around and quite manic. I did actually think
1:14:59
that you were coming back upstairs, but after waiting a bit,
1:15:01
I went back to bed as it was three am
1:15:04
or something silly like that. I think you woke me
1:15:07
up at about twelve to fifty am. Very specific so yeah,
1:15:16
so he only popped in for a little while twelve
1:15:20
fifty so it was with me till about half one probably,
1:15:28
and then he went downstairs and didn't see him again.
1:15:33
You woke, You spoke about what would happen when you
1:15:36
passed away, and some of that stuff actually played out
1:15:40
exactly how you imagined, especially regarding what happened to your flat.
1:15:45
I'm surprised the skirting boards haven't been ripped out. I
1:15:50
imagine the staff at Crack Converters chatting during their tee breaks.
1:15:56
This bloke came in trying to sell light fittings, and
1:15:59
he used Toilet's see, he's seem very jittery, almost like
1:16:03
there was something very important he needed to do. Yesterday,
1:16:08
he came in with a TV aerial cord. For sake
1:16:14
of that particular exaggeration, I was trying to think of
1:16:17
the one thing I normally see when I visit a
1:16:20
potentially new room to live in, a TV aerial wire.
1:16:28
Vinnie is under my desk, pressed up against my legs,
1:16:31
staring at me. Logi's still here as well. How come
1:16:38
every time every time you mess up it costs me.
1:16:52
There still happening, even now you're gone. Nod. So yeah,
1:16:57
Logi's still here and I couldn't really find any with
1:17:00
it when you fail with Logi's still here and I
1:17:03
couldn't really find anywhere for him as yet, not that
1:17:07
I put effort into it, to be honest. He is
1:17:10
asleep on the sofa on my seat, cheeky bugger, technically
1:17:15
your seat because you gave me that sofa, but it's
1:17:18
mine now. So there. Your boy has been pretty good.
1:17:22
He still can't be left alone without constantly woffing Wolf
1:17:26
Wolf Wolf. I can actually hear him from the park.
1:17:32
Him and VN get on most of the time, but
1:17:34
they do have their arguments, which kind of surprised me,
1:17:37
as they always got on so well in the past.
1:17:40
I think they just spent so much time together that
1:17:43
occasionally they just have to have a punch up to
1:17:46
clear the dust. My left shoulder is really aching today.
1:17:50
I must have slept on it weirdly. Luckily I'm right handed,
1:17:53
so it won't ruin my love life. I'll tell you
1:17:57
more about what happens since your demise around here and
1:18:01
in the world later. Oh yeah, there was this thing
1:18:06
that would have interested you. There's a sixteen year old
1:18:10
dance player who made it to the World finals. He
1:18:14
did amazing but ended up second. Huge amount of press
1:18:18
for him. A lot of the papers keep going on
1:18:21
about how old he looks, which is a bit rude,
1:18:24
but he does look around ninety. He had to have
1:18:28
a nap between games. He didn't. I should go now
1:18:33
because it's time for my ready break and coffee. Yep,
1:18:36
still having my regular breakfast. I am a man of
1:18:39
habit apart from when I'm not. So that's it for me.
1:18:43
I'm not even sure I bother writing another one of
1:18:46
these blogs, but I may do. I figured it might
1:18:50
be a way of keeping our daily chats going. Maybe
1:18:54
a strange thing to do, but hey, I think I
1:18:57
fit the bill for strange, so take care. I believe
1:19:03
I didn't realize. Chrissy wrote, this is a wonderful idea.
1:19:07
It's good for you to go on living with a
1:19:09
loss of it's going on living with a loss of luke.
1:19:13
I'd like I'd like this to continue if you have
1:19:17
the time in your busy recording days nights. You're a
1:19:20
really kind, honest man with a great sense of humor.
1:19:23
He helps so many people. Be proud of yourself. I
1:19:26
hope your day ahead is a good one, and the
1:19:27
day after that and so far. Best wishes, Chrissy, Thank you, Chrissy.
1:19:32
I genuinely have only just seen that. The thing is,
1:19:39
people were reading it from around the world. I didn't
1:19:43
know why they were reading it, because this was on
1:19:45
my Jasonnewland dot com website, going back a while, a
1:19:52
couple of years, well a year really to a year
1:19:57
and a half. What's this? It's two thirteen am. I've
1:20:09
been woken up again by Vinnie and your giant dinosaur
1:20:12
of a dog. Though both staring at me. I didn't
1:20:15
know if they wanted to go into the garden for
1:20:17
a toilet or if they wanted to eat me. Vinnie
1:20:20
was wearing a little white bib and was holding a
1:20:22
knife and fork, but he often does. He cause that
1:20:26
his casual look. It's really strange. I don't know why,
1:20:34
but I have a different kind of outlook on life
1:20:36
when I first wake up in the morning, almost like
1:20:41
I'm a different person, a little bit more blunter, a
1:20:48
little bit more. I don't know how to explain it,
1:20:54
but yeah, I watched a new Marvels movie or whatever
1:21:00
it's called. I think Disney may be ruining the whole franchise.
1:21:05
Each film released seems to be a little bit, a
1:21:07
little bit more Disney. This last one had a dancing
1:21:11
in singing sing. All I can say is I struggled.
1:21:19
It was entertaining, probably a great film. I just found
1:21:22
it a weird bit shite, mostly fun, but with a
1:21:27
hint of fresh cows bun sprinkles, if you know what
1:21:29
I mean. Oh, I suppose you've guessed your boy's still
1:21:32
here yep, and your sister will be taking him soon.
1:21:37
I'm just waiting to hear. I've been in contact with
1:21:40
your dad. He seems okay. Heartbroken of course, but alright ish.
1:21:46
There is other stuff that I can't really tell you
1:21:48
on here, but it's been challenging. It's kind of funny.
1:21:51
But no matter what happens, life just plods on as normal.
1:21:55
Almost lots of military conflicts in the UK have apparently
1:22:01
you're sending twenty thousand. Vinnie's now under the table, sitting
1:22:06
on my foot and staring at me as if there's
1:22:09
something I'd forgotten to do. I know not what any pooh,
1:22:14
I'm now going to have my breakfast. Oh yeah, it's
1:22:18
proper cold. You wouldn't like it. I do wish you
1:22:21
could hear your moaning about I wish I do wish
1:22:24
I could hear your moaning about the weather. Again, that's weird.
1:22:41
Someone's commented I miss you too from Luke. That's that's
1:22:54
that's strange. H I wonder if I've got any other
1:23:08
comments that I've not seen. There were comments when I
1:23:15
didn't do a huge amount of blocks. Maybe I should
1:23:20
start doing more. Maybe what do you think? Maybe start
1:23:28
doing like a regular daily one and maybe read it
1:23:31
out when I do let me boy to sleep, or
1:23:33
maybe just have it completely separate. Mm hmm. Thing's being strange.
1:23:46
You're being a strange little monkey. You're being a strange
1:23:50
little monkey. It's nearly time for bed, it really is,
1:23:55
so I hope this is being all right. It's been
1:23:58
probably a bit strange. I have made and I haven't
1:24:01
looked at the camera hardly at all. Something staring at
1:24:04
this computer screen. But generally I would look at the
1:24:08
at the camera. But one of the good things about
1:24:16
me staying at the computer screen is I've become less
1:24:22
conscious of the camera being there. So it's made it
1:24:26
a little bit easier in a way, because what just
1:24:32
has it? Has it? Has it? Has so there.
1:24:38
Speaker 3: Yeah, ooh, there's a lot to do.
1:24:48
Speaker 1: There really is so much. Q and A Friday, ninety
1:24:55
six bottles of water. I don't know which one I've
1:25:02
just done que a Friday, Good morning, right, qu and
1:25:16
a Friday. So I need to change the ninety nine
1:25:18
bottles of water, which is fourteen eighteen, fourteen, eighteen fourteen eighteen,
1:25:33
no music ten hours okay. And lastly I need to
1:25:42
do thirteen oh three, So go back to that change
1:25:48
over duplicate thirteen oh three. That's going to be the
1:25:55
last one I do that. I upload tonight thirteen oh three,
1:26:05
and I'll post that in thirteen oh three. Blackbird. That
1:26:11
was the thirteenth of March earlier in the year, so
1:26:17
I was a thirteen oh three. Let's see what image
1:26:21
I've got for this one, thirteen oh.
1:26:23
Speaker 5: Three, thirteen oh three. Here we go, blackbird, the blackbird, right, Well,
1:26:40
it isn't what's supposed to be. Remove upload thirteen oh three. Oh,
1:26:53
that's about an actual image. There's a picture of a
1:26:58
blackbird being interviewed for a podcast.
1:27:04
Speaker 1: I don't know why, I really don't. And now I
1:27:09
need to add to the recording. I should be in
1:27:16
downloads downloads thirteen oh three. Yes, changed the name and
1:27:26
uploaded all's groovy and now I've got Yeah. I think
1:27:37
most of the files that I'm uploading to the Google
1:27:41
Drive will be finished by the morning. I've still got
1:27:44
more to upload, but still quite good amount done, which
1:27:48
is groovy. A right. I have to check out that
1:27:54
Dear Luke to see where it is, where the podcast is,
1:28:00
because I don't know. Maybe put it back, Maybe start
1:28:04
making doing a regular one. Maybe you have to start
1:28:10
doing a Dear Uncle sausages. Anyway, I'm going to go,
1:28:20
so thank you for listening. Remember to be kind to yourself,
1:28:23
because you do deserve to be happy, a be gentle
1:28:27
of yourself. You deserve to feel safe. Lots of love. Bye.
1:28:38
As soon as I say by, Vinny jumps up, see
1:28:44
you later. Relax in a more deep and meaningful way,
1:29:04
maybe in a way that can not just allow you
1:29:10
to feel calmer now and throughout the time we've spend
1:29:20
together here, not just relaxed at the end of the
1:29:28
recording when it's finished and you can enjoy that sense
1:29:33
of comfort and peace, but also I think it would
1:29:50
be nice to have those feelings of relaxation continue for
1:30:06
longer after the recording has ended, so that you can
1:30:20
still benefit from listening to my voice maybe in a
1:30:30
few hours time, perhaps tomorrow, and then by listening regularly,
1:30:46
especially if you find like some people do and myself
1:30:51
as well. I sometimes I find one particular recording that
1:30:55
really resonates with me, and I just listened to it
1:31:04
over and over again every morning, every evening. There was
1:31:17
this recording from We're going back to about nineteen ninety nine.
1:31:24
It was it wasn't hypnosis, but it was a guided visualizations.
1:31:30
It kind of was hypnosis, really, and I managed to
1:31:37
find it again and it still has the same effect
1:31:41
on me. And part of it was the person's voice
1:31:53
relaxed me, just felt so pa and I'd look forward
1:32:04
to listening to her in the morning and in the evening.
1:32:17
And I knew before even pressing the play button. As
1:32:26
soon as I've done that, pressed the play button. This
1:32:30
is in the days of CD players press the play button.
1:32:45
In fact, it might have even been a tape tape recorder.
1:32:49
I'd lie down on the bed and then even without
1:32:58
necessarily listening to her words because I had to memorized. Really,
1:33:16
it was as if my body knew exactly what to do,
1:33:27
and the muscles just almost went into automatic relaxation, and
1:33:49
I remember my mind would slow down. Oh. Now, I
1:34:03
was listening to this recording in the early days of
1:34:09
learning hypnosis, and long before I ever made any videos
1:34:20
or audio recordings myself, because I didn't start doing that
1:34:25
till two thousand and six. But I knew, I knew
1:34:39
how helpful I found being able to just let go,
1:34:55
to have that trust in the person listening to, knowing
1:35:08
that it's going to be just as relaxing, if not
1:35:16
more so. Each time you hear my voice, you may
1:35:26
feel the same. Some people have been listening to me
1:35:37
for over a decade, maybe not solidly, obviously not twenty
1:35:51
four hours a day, but maybe people come back, some
1:35:59
people or maybe listen every day. That's something that I
1:36:14
do which you may not realize by listening, is when
1:36:31
I record these recordings. Now, for example, I also am
1:36:46
affected by the words that I say. So if I
1:37:00
said to you, focus on your feet, notice your feet relaxing,
1:37:11
I will be focusing on my feet. I will be
1:37:19
noticing my feet relaxing. If I said, focus on your hands,
1:37:40
and maybe notice the difference between each hand, Perhaps notice
1:37:49
the the air in the room, the temperature of the room.
1:37:57
On the backs of your hands, you may start to
1:38:08
notice what almost feels like a very light breeze, even
1:38:16
though there may not be any type of breeze at
1:38:21
all where you are right now. And as you become
1:38:34
aware of your hands, I'm also aware of how relaxed
1:38:49
my hands are feeling now and when it comes to
1:39:14
potentially drifting off to sleep, which may be the reason
1:39:21
you're listening, I also feel drowsy when I make these recordings.
1:39:42
I also notice my mind drifting. In fact, at times
1:40:00
I've actually fallen asleep without even noticing, and then I
1:40:14
carry on talking. And it's only when I listen back
1:40:26
to do the editing I hear snoring and I think,
1:40:35
I don't remember snoring. I remember talking. This snoring was
1:40:46
a pig turned up. That's why I sound like when
1:40:53
I snare and I a really into the whole experience.
1:41:11
I don't know how you feel. How relaxed do you
1:41:20
feel in your feet, how relaxed you feel in your hands.
1:41:47
I have noticed more and more that the more relaxed,
1:42:00
deeper level of comfort you feel, the easier your breathing becomes.
1:42:23
It's almost like that additional muscle relaxation. So this allows
1:42:40
you to breathe easier without necessarily focus on your breath, however,
1:43:11
being able to notice the ease in which you breathe
1:43:40
so naturally, you breathe so very easily, yeah, and smoothly.
1:44:29
Whenever I imagine my breathing improving. When I've got my
1:44:47
eyes closed, I tend to visually is a beautiful field
1:45:06
with trees and flowers producing all that life giving oxygen.
1:45:40
It feels nice too, if nothing else, just taking some
1:45:56
time away from everything, enjoying that feeling of peace serenity
1:46:50
with a joyful heart. Time seems to just drip by
1:47:27
so very slowly, relaxed, so deeply peaceful, completely unattached to
1:48:18
any thoughts whatsoever in this moment, completely free noticing that
1:49:22
your mind has slowed down. Slowed down because nothing really
1:50:09
requires your attention. You can enjoy the physical sensations of
1:50:40
allowing the stress to rip out of your body, to
1:50:52
appear out of every part of your body being released
1:51:22
from your brain in your mind, slowly but surely, the
1:52:02
muscles sing les relax rex so very deeply, res so deeply,
1:53:14
and the feelings, the pleasant feelings in your arms and shoulders,
1:53:42
deepening each part of your body further and deeper and deeper.
1:54:21
Noticine the feelings in the back of your neck, feelings
1:54:52
in your wrists, muscles, in front of your body, I
1:55:41
all say, feeling peaceful deeply, there's a sense of peace
1:56:29
spreads through your fairy core. Even when you focus on
1:57:09
your mind. Your mind becomes eve and slower, even deeper, relaxing,
1:58:32
so very slow, his stomach, peace fall in your stomach.
1:59:32
You're back. Notice, Notice how relaxed you'd never fear in
2:00:06
the hole of your back. In spy from your brain
2:00:40
all the way down the middle of your back, sending
2:00:48
and receiving millions of messages every day, decomfort increasing deeply
2:01:22
relaxed you mes RELs spreading those signals down a spine
2:02:28
or cord into air every part of your body, your
2:02:51
shins and your calf muscles with elbows, Feelings of peace
2:03:42
and tranquility spreading through your body, tips of your toes
2:04:01
to your eyes, your fingers pull way till you lower
2:04:13
back the tinker, read the tinker. Peace drift in mind,
2:05:26
just wandering away, happy to let go, let go completely,
2:05:52
let go, so tranquil the whole body enjoying a sense
2:06:50
of listinger he for more pece enjoying the space, this
2:09:14
space of peace.
2:09:22
Speaker 6: And safety, so fary, relaxed, ye, letting go.
2:11:44
Speaker 1: Maybe we can just focus on the different parts of
2:11:51
your body, just to notice you foolhead and your eyes.
2:12:59
You two so loose, noticing a sense of complete freedom,
2:13:44
absolute freedom rifri peace for energy, peace to breathe, so
2:15:40
much easier loose. You may have or may not have
2:16:51
noticed your mind drifting peaceful more any even more deeply
2:17:58
in the direction of h total bliss for pace, blish
2:18:16
pace terrefting out to pace, calm, so calm, letting go,
2:20:44
peace with mind rexed body so relaxed, so relaxed. Your
2:21:55
body feels almost in fear supple, so very relaxed. I'm peaceful,
2:22:28
so peaceful, RELI likes. And you could start to notice
2:23:38
that you are feeling more relaxed, even though if not
2:23:49
purposely focused your mind upon that sense of physical coming
2:24:00
foot that is growing within you throughout your body, and
2:24:07
your mind starts to slow down, and that could be
2:24:18
almost in recognition of I guess my speech not being
2:24:26
particularly fast, and things just generally feel calmer, just by
2:24:44
listening to my voice. You give yourself an opportunity to
2:24:53
take a break from the day, take a break from
2:25:00
your life as it is, and to give yourself a rest,
2:25:10
giving yourself permission to take some time off and to
2:25:17
allow your body to relax and allow your mind to
2:25:23
slow down, which in turn releases the tension and he
2:25:35
stresses that you had in your body. It's almost as
2:25:44
if the parts of your body just open up, allowing
2:25:50
the negativity out and at the same time replacing that
2:26:02
negativity with positive heathing energy which then fills your body
2:26:12
up and your mind to also starts to appreciate those
2:26:25
feelings of increasing confidence, an almost uplifting feeling, positive healing,
2:26:45
an energy that spreads through your body like a wave
2:26:56
of comfort, and all this comes and just allowing yourself
2:27:11
a few minutes, maybe half an hour, however long you
2:27:17
want it to be, to just rest and allow your
2:27:29
mind and your body to almost reset itself to the
2:27:40
settings of comfort and relaxation, calmness, which allows more room
2:27:56
for feelings of pleasure and happiness to move around your
2:28:09
body and into your mind, almost as if your mind
2:28:18
and your body are sinking together, almost mirroring each other,
2:28:29
with that growing positivity and calmness, and it feels nice.
2:28:44
It really does feel nice to know that you are
2:28:50
the one that has allowed yourself to feel more comfort
2:29:03
and to experience more of this deep relaxation spreading throughout
2:29:17
your body. And as I focus on each part of
2:29:29
your body, you can notice that that part becomes even
2:29:43
more relaxed just by focusing on it. It becomes even more
2:29:55
calm and comfortable, just by focusing. And as I move
2:30:06
down your body, starting at your head, the parts that
2:30:14
you've already focused on will continue to relax deeply, and
2:30:24
those parts that we've not yet focused on were just
2:30:30
automatically release any remaining tension in anticipation of even more
2:30:43
comfort about to come. Now, I'm going to start by
2:30:55
focusing on your forehead. Just being aware of the feelings
2:31:03
of your forehead and any background sounds like mister Herbert
2:31:13
the pigeon can just allow you to feel even more relaxed.
2:31:23
Just means you're in the moment. This isn't this isn't
2:31:29
a sterile environment. This is the world. I live in
2:31:37
the countryside, so there's lots of nature sounds around. So
2:31:49
as you focus on your forehead, just notice how it
2:31:55
becomes even more relaxed as you focus only on my
2:32:05
voice and that part of your body. Moving down to
2:32:14
your eyes, focusing on your eyes, noticing how your eyelids
2:32:28
feel so heavy yet so light at the same time,
2:32:38
and all the muscles around your eyes relaxing completely. Moving
2:32:49
your focus down to your mouth, your lips, your tongue,
2:32:57
your teeth, and your gumbs, the whole of your mouth relaxing,
2:33:09
calm and lease as you focus now on your jewel,
2:33:22
not just the parts of your jaw near your mouth
2:33:26
and your chin, but all the way up the size
2:33:31
of your face to your ears, the hole of your jaw,
2:33:40
feeding more relaxed and calm. Focusing on your neck, the
2:34:07
front of your neck and your throat relaxing and loose
2:34:16
and calm. The side of your neck, the right and
2:34:25
left side of your neck, relax and loose and calm.
2:34:44
And now the back of your neck, focusing on the
2:34:51
back of your neck, letting go of any tension that
2:35:02
may have been there before, and enjoying that sense of
2:35:12
increasing comfort and release that you can experience in the
2:35:23
back of your neck. Moving down your back and moving
2:35:35
either side of your spine right from the top of
2:35:40
your back all the way down to the bottom of
2:35:45
your back, down to your lower back, and as you
2:36:02
move up and down your spine, you can feel the
2:36:10
muscles either side of your spine relaxing even more. And
2:36:25
as those muscles relax, that sense of comfort starts to
2:36:32
spread outwards from your spine into both sides of your back,
2:36:46
the top of your back, the middle, and your lower back.
2:36:54
And as you scan gently and slowly up and down
2:37:01
your back, there's the muscles in the top of your
2:37:06
back relax and become looser. The muscles in the middle
2:37:16
of your back also seem to just almost divide from
2:37:23
each other, separating and almost melting, and in your lower
2:37:37
back there seems to be an extra special feeling of comfort.
2:37:54
The spreads into your hips, so down your lower back,
2:38:00
into your hips, into the area where your cosis are,
2:38:12
and into your buttocks, and all those muscles that spread
2:38:21
whom your lower back into your hip area start to melt,
2:38:35
start to really let go. I don't even know where about.
2:38:47
To focus on your shoulders. Your back and your spine
2:38:54
will continue to let go, continue to relax so calmly,
2:39:16
and as you focus on your shoulders, you may notice
2:39:21
that they're already feeding really loose, they're already feeding calm,
2:39:52
and they're feeding those muscles. Then move from your neck
2:40:04
into your shoulders. Feel so soft and gentle, so smooth
2:40:29
and calm, and the feeding in your shoulders seens to
2:40:52
spread deep into your shoulders, that sense of relaxation, not
2:41:01
just traveling deeply into your muscles, but also relaxing the
2:41:15
bones and moving all away to underneath your arms, relaxing
2:41:30
that whole area between the tops of your shoulders and
2:41:35
underneath your arms. He Then you feel so relaxed and
2:41:53
comfortable in your shoulders, sense that deep healing message into
2:42:14
your arms. You may feel almost as if your arms
2:42:26
are not even there, because they're so relaxed, so deeply relaxed,
2:42:45
so so calm, so loose, not feeling spreading all the
2:43:26
way down your arms, two elbows, including your elbows circumforts,
2:43:50
spreads all away into your wrists are forearments and your
2:44:06
wrists being so heavy yet at the same time so
2:44:29
light and gentle. Focusing now on your hands, my hands,
2:45:35
so peaceful in your hands, This is sam so real peace.
2:46:17
It just seems to I feel so familiar when your
2:46:30
hands relax deeply mhmm. Eyes. The thing is you things, sidles,
2:48:08
your finger tips, moving your attention to the front of
2:48:42
your body, so comfortable, move on your focus, you your legs,
2:50:31
what muscles in your thighs, your knees, so relaxed, the
2:51:26
carved musselves and just shames a pusya four and the
2:53:34
feathing your feet. So peaceful, so calm, so peaceful, sircom
2:54:33
so peaceful, sycom so peace for rain, peace fall, so calm,
2:55:17
allowing that deep relaxation to spread your chest, in your stomach,
2:55:28
so letting go of everything. So I'm gonna start counting
2:55:56
down now, twenty down to one. You can imagine in
2:56:08
a way it's like just walking down some steps and
2:56:14
each step or twenty steps, and each step represents a
2:56:19
level of comfort. Each step represents a deepening of that comfort,
2:56:40
and the furvies you walk down those steps, the deeper
2:56:46
and more relaxed you feel. So starting with number twenty twenty, nineteen, eighteen,
2:58:41
seventeen sixte three four four two too well five eight
3:06:51
nine hey seven four five four four four one. And
3:17:34
now as you focus on your eyes, We're gonna count
3:17:51
down from ten douns one. Focus in just on your eyes,
3:18:07
your eyelids, the muscles around your eyes, your eye walls themselves,
3:18:17
our whole area that makes up your eye. And as
3:18:34
we count down from ten down to one, whilst focus
3:18:42
in on your eyes, you'll become twice is relaxed with
3:18:58
each number counting down, and you may find the all
3:19:11
you want to do is just drift off to sleep.
3:19:20
And if that's what you want, then just allow yourself
3:19:27
to do that. Now, focusing on your eyes, I'm going
3:19:42
to begin counting down from ten down to one right now,
3:20:00
two nine eight seven yo five y four three two one.
3:29:04
So counting down from ten to one ten nine eight
3:29:24
seven six five four three two one. And maybe that
3:29:49
was a bit too quick in order to relax. Maybe
3:29:53
it's a bit too fast for you to notice the
3:29:59
calming of your body, maybe even a little bit of
3:30:06
pressure there, Like you're counting down from ten to one.
3:30:10
Would you expect me to do man, expect me to
3:30:13
stick gold floppy just because you're counting down. We could
3:30:23
try it again, but this time I go this's lower.
3:30:29
This time, as you focus on the whole of your
3:30:34
body before we focus on your legs, just notice how
3:30:42
your body does start to feel more relaxed. With every
3:30:57
number that I count down ten nine, eight, seven, six,
3:31:38
five four three two one, and just notice how how
3:32:47
you feel, generally, how your body feels. It's not necessarily
3:32:57
even about yeah, counting down from ten to one. It's
3:33:08
that space that you have, that space between being active
3:33:27
physically or mentally to just sitting or lying down, just
3:33:37
being there, not doing anything, not saying anything, or needing
3:33:43
to think about anything. So that opens up a space,
3:33:49
you know, a bit of a space, a gap. And
3:33:59
the more I counted down from ten to one, the
3:34:03
bigger that gap becomes. So there's that gap of calmness,
3:34:13
of comfort, relaxation. It's a nice feeling, and it moves
3:34:30
those stresses or discomforts physically or emotionally, moves them away.
3:34:47
Allows you to just slow down, someone to count again
3:35:00
from ten down to one, and notice that gap widening,
3:35:08
the gap, And as it widens, it's almost like the
3:35:14
stress and attention falls into the gap and gives you
3:35:32
that distance, that space. Now, ten nine, eight, seven, six,
3:36:27
five four three two one. How did your body feel.
3:37:50
Speaker 5: Now?
3:38:03
Speaker 1: Can you notice that the feeling calmer, the feeling more relaxed.
3:38:42
As we now focus on your legs just your legs.
3:39:02
We're just going to start with focusing on your thighs.
3:39:22
Of course, it's not the most exciting thing to be doing,
3:39:27
because I'm sure, like most of your body is not
3:39:34
a lot going on right now. Just focusing on the
3:39:46
whole of your thighs, the tops of your thighs, the
3:39:52
sides of your thighs, the bottoms of your thighs, you're
3:39:59
outer thigh and your inner thighs. Basically the whole of
3:40:04
your thigh that leads into your hip and it goes
3:40:13
down to your knee joints. Now, this is a big area.
3:40:28
It's a very heavy area. It's very strong, probably the
3:40:33
strongest muscles in your body or in your thighs. But
3:40:48
I don't think we perhaps give enough attention to our thighs.
3:41:02
Perhaps we don't acknowledge how important our thighs are to
3:41:13
our lives, how much they actually do for us all
3:41:34
through our lives. And it may seem to sound really weird,
3:41:44
but I think that all of our body parts, especially
3:41:53
our thighs, need some TLC. I've shown a bit of acknowledgement.
3:42:12
I thank you gratitude for what our thighs do for us.
3:42:27
And I know This may sound is strange. Maybe you think,
3:42:34
why am I surely how I should be out in
3:42:37
the garden hugging a tree or something. Well, it's hard
3:42:45
to set a microphone up on a tree. That's why
3:42:49
I'm doing this indoors. Otherwise I would be outside hugging
3:42:51
a tree. Now I can't see the television from the tree.
3:43:01
If you move down to your knees gain such an
3:43:06
important part, and I think we don't necessarily I'll speak
3:43:16
for myself here, I don't necessarily appreciate all that my
3:43:23
knees do for me until I have a problem with
3:43:28
my knee. It's occasionally, if I ever maybe i'll bash
3:43:33
it or it's aching for some reason. It's then that
3:43:40
I realize how much it does. You know, the benefit
3:43:45
of being able to use my legs without any kind
3:43:53
of physical discomfort is a beautiful thing that's possibly not
3:44:01
appreciated until it's temporarily removed. You know that's comfort. But
3:44:12
as you focus on your knees, regardless of how your
3:44:17
knees feel, you can have that sense of gratitude and
3:44:26
love to your knees for all that they do for you.
3:44:39
And you can still have that attention on your thighs,
3:44:43
and maybe notice how your thighs feel. Maybe you've noticed
3:44:49
that they are relaxing more deeply as you focus now
3:45:09
on the bottoms of your legs, your shins, and your
3:45:12
calf muscles and the bones between your knees and your feet,
3:45:21
incorporating of course, your ankles so important. Anyone that's had
3:45:34
even like the slightest sprain of an ankle knows how
3:45:41
how much we take our ankles for granted. And it's
3:45:51
kind of strange in a way when you think that.
3:45:56
You know, logically, our wrists are a lot thinner than
3:46:00
the rest of our arms, which is okay, it doesn't
3:46:04
I can't see any problem with that because we're just
3:46:08
picking stuff up. But our ankles so much thinner than
3:46:15
the rest of our legs, and from a physics perspective
3:46:26
or logical even it doesn't really make sense that all
3:46:30
this weight would ultimately be resting on your ankles then
3:46:39
leading to your feet, that thin area, thin bone. Yeah,
3:46:52
it does so much great work. Supports us, supports our
3:46:58
body a lifetime, helps us to balance, it helps you
3:47:10
to get around and be mobile. And there's the calf muscles.
3:47:23
Of course, when I was younger, I couldn't see the
3:47:31
point in calf muscles. I didn't seem to do anything. Okay,
3:47:37
if I walked around on tiptoes, then my calf muscles
3:47:41
get some work. But of course that's not true. The
3:47:44
calf muscles are being used whenever we use our legs
3:47:54
and your shins there to protect your lower legs, shaped
3:48:07
in a way, almost as a protector for the bone,
3:48:19
leading of course to your ankles and your feet. But
3:48:31
we're not going to focus on your feet. We're just
3:48:33
going to focus on the legs. I realize that now
3:48:40
that I've mentioned your feet, it probably focuses on them anyway.
3:48:45
For maybe I should focus on your feet a little bit.
3:48:51
You can have them in your awareness the same as
3:48:56
you have your thighs in your awareness. Even though we
3:49:00
haven't been focusing on your thighs for a few minutes
3:49:06
that we be focusing on your ankles, there's still that
3:49:16
sensation of comfort in your thighs and this that movement
3:49:33
of energy because the thighs hold lots of different sensations.
3:49:42
Of course, there's the muscles, the big straw muscles that
3:49:47
we have in our thighs, but the skin on the
3:50:00
outside of the thighs, as in the outside of all
3:50:06
of our body can be very sensitive, sensitive to the touch,
3:50:17
sensitive to temperature. And inside your thighs the bones, there's
3:50:31
the muscle, there's the blood, vessels, the ar trees, all
3:50:37
this stuff that's inside your thighs. And I guess sometimes
3:50:46
it'd be nice if you could actually put your fingers
3:50:50
inside your thighs and a message, so you can message
3:50:56
on the outside, of course, but to be able to
3:50:59
get the deep into the muscles, and to be able
3:51:02
to just massage inside your thighs, message in the bones
3:51:09
of your leg, massage in or the veins, and just
3:51:16
gently healing your thighs, and you could move down message
3:51:29
and inside your knees, just message in those bones, but
3:51:35
with healing fingertips, spreading that healing energy deep into the
3:51:42
joints of your knees. Of course, there's the back of
3:51:52
your your knee, you know, the inside crease where your
3:51:57
knee is. That's it is sensitive area. Very it feels
3:52:04
very nice when you stroke it. That might be because
3:52:09
it's an area that's not really touched very often. It's
3:52:14
almost like a hidden part, that crease in your legs.
3:52:21
It's almost it's like a part that has a sensitivity
3:52:28
which is a little bit different. Of course, it's protected
3:52:39
by your legs. So you can imagine putting your fingers
3:52:50
into that crease in your legs, that fold in between
3:52:59
your legs. You can just message with your fingertips, letting
3:53:04
your fingertips going inside, massage in the muscle tissue you
3:53:16
can cause field the bones of your knees, healing through
3:53:22
your fingertips, and then as you go down to your
3:53:35
calf muscles. Now that's the part I'd like to be
3:53:38
able to really put my fingertips deep inside my calf muscles,
3:53:45
massage in every single tissue of that muscle, healing every part,
3:54:01
and then doing the same for my shins, massage in
3:54:08
and gently stroking the bones, gently stroking them, healing in
3:54:15
a loving way, because they deserve to be treated as
3:54:22
the precious bones that they are, Because our legs are
3:54:26
so precious as in all the other parts of our body,
3:54:33
and more precious of any jure on the planet. When
3:54:47
you start to think about your legs in this way,
3:55:00
change your perspective. It might sound a bit a bit
3:55:09
silly to start with the idea of having love for
3:55:15
your legs, showing appreciation for your thighs, wanting to be
3:55:24
able to put your hands in your thighs, massage the
3:55:32
muscles and the bones, and to get your fingers deep
3:55:38
in there, releasing all tension. Just to show how much
3:55:48
you care about your legs, how much you care for
3:55:56
what your legs do for you regularly, your knees, your calves,
3:56:06
your ankles, the strength of your ankles, considering how thin
3:56:18
they are compared to the rest of your legs, especially
3:56:22
your thighs. Yeah, they're so strong, so flexible, absolutely amazing things.
3:56:38
Your ankles are truly a gift because of what they
3:56:47
do for you, supporting all that weight, regardless of how
3:57:00
weight you are, even if you only eat ate stone,
3:57:05
there's still a lot of weight for these little ankles. Now,
3:57:12
I'm a lot heavier than eat stone double down, yet
3:57:20
my ankles support my body all the time. Orthough they
3:57:29
do give off a sigh of relief when I sit down,
3:57:35
that's fact. My whole legs do. My feet feet also
3:57:43
go and my toes clap. I'm so happy. Your legs
3:58:10
really are amazing, And I know that talk about talking
3:58:18
about your legs is probably possibly among the most most
3:58:25
boring things you've ever heard anyone say possibly they're boring
3:58:33
or not. Everything I said is true. Your legs are amazing.
3:58:50
Your legs deserve not just respect, they deserve to relax deeply.
3:59:10
They deserve to take some time out of the day
3:59:16
to just let go completely. Your legs really can relax.
3:59:52
And because the legs are so such a most, you know,
3:59:56
very important part of your boy. When you relax your legs,
4:00:02
the rest of your body also naturally follows in that
4:00:13
journey of comfort. I can feel it in my hips.
4:00:26
My hips feel really loose, and also my lwer back
4:00:33
as well. My lower back really feels it feels stretched,
4:00:41
even though I'm just sitting in a chair and there's
4:00:44
no stretching as far as I'm aware that I'm doing.
4:00:50
It's almost as if the muscles are just relaxed so
4:00:53
much that there is a natural stretch as the tension
4:01:00
has reduced a lot. And I'm now going to count
4:01:21
down from ten down to one, and you can continue
4:01:31
to feel wonderfully relaxed. Ten nine, eight, seven, six, five,
4:02:02
four three two one relax. So I'm just going to
4:02:30
count down from five down to one, and as a countdown,
4:02:36
if you just focus on the numbers, just the numbers
4:02:43
counting down. And notice how you feel in this moment
4:02:54
as you hear the numbers counting down, knowing that those
4:02:58
numbers counting down represents you feeling calmer, not just in
4:03:11
your body, but also relaxing your mind. Just notice how
4:03:20
you feel. There's nothing to do, there's nothing to say,
4:03:26
there's nothing to think about, starting with number five, four, three,
4:04:04
two one. And as you notice the gradual letting go
4:04:31
the tension in your body, you may also begin to
4:04:39
notice and be aware of how your mind is starting
4:04:47
to slow down. This is just a natural thing that happens.
4:04:57
It's not really a special proceed it's just natural because
4:05:02
as your body relaxes, your mind also starts to relax.
4:05:10
And the more your mind relaxes, the more your body relaxes.
4:05:14
It's just a continuous circle of relaxation. And there is
4:05:24
that calmness that comes from relative quietness. You know, even
4:05:33
even if there's background sounds either your side or mind,
4:05:40
it's still going to be quite calm. You know, you
4:05:46
haven't got the television on, there's no music in the background,
4:05:51
unless you're listening to the recording with music. Of course,
4:05:59
you're very like you're not going to be sitting in
4:06:01
a room with other people. Of course you might be,
4:06:04
but generally it's more ideal if you can do this
4:06:09
on your own, so no distractions, and when you stop
4:06:20
thinking about stuff, relaxation automatically rises, a sense of comfort
4:06:37
starts to grow, and without trying to build it up
4:06:46
into something fantastical or something magical, this is just a
4:06:57
natural process, something that's easy to accomplish. In fact, it's
4:07:10
almost you know, the sense of relaxing completely happens really
4:07:17
when you put no effort into it. It's not something
4:07:22
that you can really force. It's something that happens naturally.
4:07:33
And part of the process of this recording and others
4:07:42
is simply two allow you to take advantage of this space,
4:07:56
this time, to just let go, to just be here,
4:08:10
to be in tune with how you feel, yet with
4:08:24
the intention of wanting to relax deeply and maybe even
4:08:37
to fall asleep, depending on what it is that you
4:08:43
wish for yourself in this moment. As we know, relaxing
4:08:58
is the majority of the process of falling asleep. The
4:09:06
actual falling asleep part is the tiny bit at the end.
4:09:14
The deeper relaxed you become the easier you find yourself drifting.
4:09:38
You can also, if you choose stay focused on my
4:09:45
voice and really enjoy the process, gradually relaxing each muscle
4:10:18
in your body effortlessly and just observing the sensation of
4:10:45
letting go completely this. I'm going to count from six
4:11:02
down to one, and you can notice your mind calming
4:11:15
down more with each number that you hear me say, naturally,
4:11:28
feeling calm and slow and peaceful, six, five, four, three, two, one,
4:14:31
being aware of how your mind to slowed right down,
4:14:44
sinking deeply into relaxation. And as you focus on your mind,
4:15:08
you may notice that there are some thoughts still there,
4:15:20
maybe some stubborn thoughts that for some reason perhaps need
4:15:30
your attention. That's what you can do is send love
4:15:45
to those thoughts. Sprinkle those thoughts with love like all
4:15:59
petals my flower. Just sprinkle it over them, petals filled
4:16:05
with love towards those thoughts, to let those thoughts know
4:16:12
that you're not abandon the number. You just need them.
4:16:20
You require them to just calm down, slow down, quiet
4:16:32
down for now. So as you focus on those remaining
4:16:47
thoughts as we count down this time from seven down
4:16:52
to one. With each number just imagine spring clean those
4:17:01
flower petals of love, kindness, gratitude over those thoughts, which
4:17:21
will allow them to just melt away and relax deeply.
4:17:31
With every number, those thoughts will become more and more relaxed.
4:17:51
Starting with number seven, six, five, four, three, two, one,
4:20:22
and need you now notice how relaxed your feeling in
4:20:39
your body. We're going to focus on your hands, because
4:21:01
the more relaxed your hands are, the more relaxed your
4:21:07
body and mind are.
4:21:24
Speaker 7: And there.
4:21:26
Speaker 1: You focus on your hands and your fingers. There's nothing
4:21:37
needed to be done. There's no clenching of fists or
4:21:43
tents in the fingers or anything like that. It's just
4:21:54
noticing and focusing on your hands, noticing how they feel.
4:22:22
Because the more relaxed your hands feel, the calmer your
4:22:33
mind feels, and the more comfort you feel throughout your body.
4:22:50
And you may have already noticed your mind is starting
4:23:24
to dress fain just on your hands and fingers, allowing
4:23:53
them to experience a real deepening of that relaxation in
4:24:07
your hands and fingers, more and more relaxed. With each
4:24:26
number from eight down to one, you can almost feel
4:24:46
that healing and relaxing energy spreading into your hands and fingers,
4:25:00
becoming yearn more relaxing with each number you hear, going
4:25:22
down from eight down to one, drifting, drifting again, starting
4:25:43
with number eighth, seven, six, five, four, three, two, just
4:29:43
being here now, nothing to think about, nothing to do,
4:29:53
nothing to say, and everything just to feels calmer. And
4:30:07
this is your natural state of being. This is how
4:30:15
you just normally feel when you take away all that
4:30:22
other stuff that we add, you know, things like stress
4:30:29
and worrying and overthinking and anxiety, tension, just generally thinking
4:30:45
about stuff. You take that away, which is what we
4:30:51
do what we do now left with a real sense
4:31:05
of peacefulness, which comes to you very quickly, because ultimately
4:31:18
it's just a feeling, a feeling of comfort. It's almost
4:31:31
as if you've gone inside yourself and you've found a
4:31:35
special place where everything is peaceful, a place where you
4:31:49
can feel relaxed and your natural sense of comfort, a
4:32:00
place where you can be you, where you can accept
4:32:09
yourself for who you are, a place where you're not
4:32:15
trying to please anybody else ever, a place where you
4:32:25
can actually not just love yourself, but in some ways
4:32:35
more importantly, you can like yourself, appreciate who you are.
4:32:53
That sense of gratitude is in the air all around.
4:33:07
That's also a place where you can actually feel the
4:33:16
healing energy soaking into your body. Heathing energy soaking into
4:33:31
your body, and that healing energy spreads through your veins,
4:33:45
traveling to each and every single part of your body,
4:33:58
and you start to realize, actually, that healing energy it's
4:34:05
not just entered into your brain, it's become part of
4:34:12
your brain, and that spinal fluid is now mixed with
4:34:23
healing energy, not just allowing you to feel so much
4:34:35
more relaxed and healthy in this moment, but also you
4:34:49
start to realize that actually, what's happening now with that healing,
4:34:59
relaxing energy spreading through your body is actually changing your life.
4:35:13
It's actually changing the way you're going to feel not
4:35:19
just now, but tomorrow and the next day. As your
4:35:26
health improves, not just your physical health, but your mental health.
4:35:38
Things that used to bother you in the past, for
4:35:44
some reason, no longer have the effect that they used
4:35:50
to because something has changed deep within you. Maybe things
4:36:04
that used to cause you to feel anger no longer
4:36:14
have that power to control you the way they seem
4:36:24
to be able to before. As you realize that you're
4:36:33
the one who decides what affects you. You're the one
4:36:46
who decides to feel relaxed and calm when you choose
4:37:01
to enjoy noticing these natural developments of healing, continuing to
4:37:15
grow and improve your life day by day, including of course,
4:37:30
your ability to relax so much easier and sleeping is
4:37:47
the most natural thing in the world to you, because
4:37:58
falling asleep is some thing that you've done so many
4:38:05
times in your life, and you know that you were born,
4:38:14
as we all were, with the ability to fall asleep naturally.
4:38:25
We were born with that ability to just drift off
4:38:36
into a deep, healing sleep. Even when we're kids, sometimes
4:38:49
we'll fall asleep when we don't even want to try
4:38:54
to take us stay awake. Maybe it's a birthday in
4:38:58
the morning, or it's Christmas or holiday or something we
4:39:03
look forward to. We don't want to go to sleep.
4:39:07
But the more we want to stay awake, the more
4:39:12
we just start to drift. And the more you fight drifting,
4:39:21
the more you try and stop yourself and drift in asleep,
4:39:26
the deeper and stronger that drifting becomes. Because we're born
4:39:38
not just with the need to relax deeply and to
4:39:44
naturally fall asleep, but it's our birthright, it's part of
4:39:54
our DNA. And sometimes as we get older in life,
4:40:06
perhaps at times we have forgotten that relaxing completely is
4:40:20
not only a wonderfully pleasant experience, it's also really easy.
4:40:45
It's very, very easy to let go, because that's all
4:40:52
it is. It's just deciding to let go. And when
4:41:07
you press the play button on my recordings, you have
4:41:15
given permission for my voice to relax you. When you
4:41:25
press that play button, you have given me permission for
4:41:31
my words to affect you in a positive, only a
4:41:45
positive way, opening up your mind to useful and healing
4:42:08
suggestions that can have such an amazing effect on how
4:42:24
you feel right now, as well as those changes that
4:42:36
continue long after the recording ends, those changes within you
4:42:49
that continue to flourish and grow, transforming your life in
4:43:03
a positive, beautiful way, allowing you to move forward in
4:43:15
your life in the direction that you choose for yourself.
4:43:30
And this feeling, this feeling that you can experience a safety, comfort, calmness,
4:43:50
just feels so nice. It's such a healthy place to be,
4:44:12
and that positivity grows within you each and every day.
4:44:29
Moving forward, you're going to find that you're more relaxed
4:44:41
physically and in your mind is more relaxed. And it's
4:44:53
not that you're thinking slower, it's just that your mind
4:44:59
will be yes clogged up with unnecessary negativity, because from
4:45:11
now on, your mind rejects negativity. From now on, you're
4:45:21
going to start noticing when negativity arises, and you can
4:45:32
just say stop, stop, and that negativity will turn around
4:45:47
and leave you alone. Stop and that negativity would disappear.
4:46:14
And as you notice that you feel way more relaxed
4:46:22
than you probably expected, you can now congratulate yourself because
4:46:38
you're the person that has done this. You are the
4:46:44
one that has opened your mind up to the simple
4:46:50
facts that you can feel more relaxed in your body
4:46:58
and in your mind. You've opened your mind up to
4:47:10
the birthright of being able to just fall asleep easily
4:47:17
when you choose. And that's a nice feeling. Don't you
4:47:32
think it feels nice? Doesn't it? To feel calm? All
4:47:43
that healing energy is spreading through your body and your
4:47:48
mind to spend time in a special place where negativity
4:48:05
can no longer enter. Negativity is banned. It's bad, it's
4:48:18
not allowed. Intrigue, doesn't it doesn't. This doesn't deserve to
4:48:25
be here, doesn't belong here. Negativity has no place in
4:48:34
your life, which makes room for more comfort, more healing,
4:48:53
more relaxation, more peace. It feels nice, doesn't it? Just
4:49:24
the let go with everything. I'm gonna count down now
4:49:44
from twenty down to one. You can continue to relax.
4:49:55
If you choose, you can drift to sleep with every
4:50:06
number you hear me say, you can fill twice as relaxed,
4:50:21
or if you choose, you can fill twice a sleeping
4:50:32
now twenty nineteen, eighteen, seventeen, sixteen, fifteen, fourteen, thirteen, twelve, eleven, ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five.
4:52:53
Speaker 7: Four.
4:53:27
Speaker 1: This is your time to just take a break, your
4:53:37
time to relax, to allow your mind to slow down,
4:53:56
to give yourself permission to take a break from everything end.
4:54:15
You're the only person that can make that decision. You're
4:54:23
the only person that can actually tell your mind to
4:54:30
just relax, to just take some time off so that
4:54:54
you can focus on your body, getting in touch with
4:55:01
how you feel physically and in the process of this
4:55:17
body scan where you focus on different parts of your body,
4:55:29
those parts that you focus on and observe even though
4:55:36
you're not purposely requesting for those parts of your body
4:55:45
to relax. It's kind of expected, you expect when you
4:55:53
listen to my voice to feel more relaxed naturally, because
4:56:06
when you're listening to me, your attention is focused on
4:56:16
my words, and as my words guide you to focus
4:56:32
on those parts of your body, your focus increases, which
4:56:47
actually calms your mind. And when your mind calms down,
4:57:08
your body relaxes. And when your body calms down, your
4:57:30
mind relaxes. And even though we have not really started
4:57:47
to focus on your body, you can already feel that
4:58:00
healing energy spreading through your body, pushing out stress and tension,
4:58:19
healing all the parts of your body, including your skin,
4:58:27
your bones, your blood, all of your organs inside your body,
4:58:36
all of the muscles, all of.
4:58:39
Speaker 7: The fat, all of everything, every hair on your body
4:58:48
is filled with that healing energy. And when your brain in.
4:59:04
Speaker 1: Fills with that healing energy, the feeling of comfort and
4:59:18
relaxation increases, deeply increases in a way that your mind
4:59:47
starts to feel perhaps bit drowsy because it's not needed,
5:00:04
and it may start to drift if that's what's needed. So,
5:00:24
if you're listening to this and what you need is
5:00:29
deep relaxation. That's what you'll get.
5:00:34
Speaker 7: If what you need is.
5:00:37
Speaker 1: To fall asleep naturally and easily as your mind drifts,
5:00:46
that's also what will happen. Because by pressing that play
5:01:00
button on the podcast and listening to me, you give
5:01:06
permission for your body and your mind. In fact, you
5:01:19
give the command to your body and your mind to
5:01:24
relax deeply and to drift off to sleep if that's
5:01:37
what you want.
5:01:42
Speaker 8: Or need.
5:01:50
Speaker 1: And as I focus on the different parts of your body,
5:02:00
you may start to just drift. And then you come
5:02:09
back again and you hear me talking, and I'm focusing
5:02:15
on a different part of your body, and you may
5:02:25
find yourself drifting. You don't realize you're drifting until you
5:02:34
stop drifting and you're alert again to my voice. Focusing
5:02:44
on a different part of your body starts to relax
5:02:49
even deeper, because that drifting is basically you already in
5:03:02
the sleep zone. And the more you drift, the longer
5:03:12
you drift, and the longer you drift, eventually that drifting
5:03:22
continues into sleep, and that's the last you remember until
5:03:34
you wake up in your own time when you experience
5:03:43
the right amount of sleep for you. Because when you do,
5:03:53
and if you do fall asleep, it's extremely isn't so relaxing?
5:04:07
So deep healing sleep? I'm it feels so nice to
5:04:26
relax into your own body and mind as you feel
5:04:37
that healing energy is spreading through it, relaxing us so deeply,
5:04:51
relaxing use so so deeply. We start to focus on
5:05:09
your eyes, moving down to your jaw, down to your neck,
5:05:39
your shoulders, palms, hands, fingers, your chest, and stumble, your back,
5:06:34
your spine, you hips, you legs, your feet, your toes,
5:07:28
and they're feeding, feeting, spreading and growing inside your body,
5:07:41
feeling you up. Now let's focus again on parts of
5:07:53
your body, focusing this time on your forehead. Now on
5:08:08
your mouth, your lips, your tongue, the whole of your mouth.
5:08:29
Focus in on your fingers. Maybe you could move your
5:08:40
fingers a little bit. You can focus on each one individually,
5:08:52
both hands. And even though you focus on both of
5:09:00
your hands now they almost seemed to just melt into one.
5:09:11
Where is your right hand start and your left hand end,
5:09:19
almost as if just mixed together. Now focusing on your knees,
5:09:37
just noticing how your knees fell. Now focusing when your
5:09:59
help is focusing on both of your elbows. Just observing
5:10:14
the feeling of your elbows. Now focusing, observing the back
5:10:49
of your neck, eating that energy in the back of
5:11:04
your neck, obsurving your ankles, being aware of physical sensations
5:11:57
in your ankles.
5:12:15
Speaker 7: Us as yes, and.
5:13:02
Speaker 1: Now your toes on both of your feet, being aware
5:13:20
how you to feel right now, h notice thin how
5:14:14
your entire body fails, noticing your mind fails. Now letting go,
5:15:12
letting go, letting go everything, letting go, letting go, letting
5:15:54
go everything everything. I'm going to start now, and I
5:16:20
would like you just, first of all, just to see
5:16:23
yourself lying down on that message table, lying on your front.
5:16:32
Your head is supported, your arms are supported, and you
5:16:40
feel comfortable and breathing. It's really easy, and you feel
5:16:50
you feel confident in how you look as well. So
5:16:54
there's none of that issue of body problems or shyness,
5:16:59
because I'm a professional and this is a therapy session,
5:17:08
so none of that stuff matters whatsoever. This is about you.
5:17:19
This is about how you feel and how you can
5:17:26
enjoy that sense of comfort and relaxation that comes from
5:17:33
letting go and allowing my hands, my fingers to relax
5:17:39
you by a message your body. So I want to
5:17:50
start off just by placing my hands on the back
5:17:55
of your head, just gently, just you can feel while
5:18:00
my hands feel like really on you, so you can
5:18:09
maybe feel the warmth of my hands on the back
5:18:11
of your head. And with my hands to the side
5:18:17
of your head, not pressing, but just holding there very gently,
5:18:24
maybe over your ears, and a little bit on your face,
5:18:28
just so you can feel my hands so you can
5:18:34
become accustomed to them. And now put my hands on
5:18:47
the back of your head again and gently let them
5:18:51
slide down onto the back of your neck. You can
5:19:04
feel my hands gently stroking the back of your neck
5:19:14
to start with, just so you can get used to
5:19:21
the feeling of my hands on your skin, get accustomed
5:19:26
to realize that you're safe and it's all good, it's
5:19:34
all fine. And I'm going to start gently messaging the
5:19:45
muscles in the back of your neck with both hands. Now,
5:20:02
this is a very trusting situation really, because our necks
5:20:08
are so fragile and to have someone have their hands
5:20:13
around your neck in that way can sometimes be problematic
5:20:18
for people, which is why massages are quite good because
5:20:24
it allows you to relax and to get in touch
5:20:32
with trust to feel peaceful and calm, And there's a
5:20:49
massage the sides of your neck, gently moving from the
5:20:58
bottom of your neck. It would be sort of near
5:21:02
where your shoulders start, I guess, all the way up
5:21:07
to your jaw, your ears, kind of area that side
5:21:13
of your neck. Of course, it's a lot longer than
5:21:18
the front of your neck. The message in the back
5:21:34
of your neck, especially that area where perhaps we hold tension,
5:21:47
and as that area's message, you can actually feel a
5:21:52
sense of release in the back of your neck and
5:22:00
maybe you can breathe it out as well. Notice how
5:22:05
it feels. Notice how you feel. Then moving down to
5:22:19
that area between your neck and your shoulders, that musty area,
5:22:27
starting to message that area on both sides. I mean,
5:22:35
this would be the area that a lot of people
5:22:37
would message if they were going to give you like
5:22:40
a shoulder message. Even that's not technically the shoulders, but
5:22:46
it's all the muscles that lead to the shoulders from
5:22:50
the neck and again that can hold tension and stress.
5:22:58
And when massaged sometimes a nice deep message is useful,
5:23:06
and you decide how deep that message is and just
5:23:22
allow my knuckles just to dig in to get to
5:23:29
those muscles and to realy relaxed all the time being
5:23:39
firm yet gentle with you and just stroking down that
5:23:57
area to your actual shoulders, moving to the muscles of
5:24:05
your shoulders, and maybe initially just pulling up the shoulders
5:24:16
a little bit off the table, just to give you
5:24:20
a little bit of a stretch, but very gently. And
5:24:30
you've got the muscles at the front of your shoulders,
5:24:34
the sides and the back. Again. This is a part
5:24:45
that can really take quite a bit of pressure, quite
5:24:50
a bit of needing if if you wish to really
5:25:00
release the tension to really get into those muscles and
5:25:09
can let your fingers in there make you feel really nice.
5:25:15
Sometimes it's just being stroked gently or being massaged quite strongly.
5:25:27
It can all be beneficial to the relaxation with the
5:25:36
muscles in your shoulders. Now to move down your arms,
5:25:56
we do one arm at a time, starting your right arm.
5:26:07
What I do is I just lift your arm up,
5:26:12
just hold it to the side of you the way
5:26:17
still be attached, and I just message the tops of
5:26:23
your arms all the way down to your forearms into
5:26:40
your wrists gently messaging. That part arts the softer part,
5:27:03
which is the under part. Of the arm, which leads
5:27:10
to the crease in your elbow the inside it's much
5:27:15
more sensitive skin. Sometimes just having that stroked and feel
5:27:32
really nice, pleasurable and relaxing. Now moving down to your
5:27:49
right hand, just holding your hand in both of my hands,
5:28:08
just pressing gently on the back of your hand and
5:28:14
stretching your fingers ever so lightly at the same time,
5:28:25
pressing down and messaging each finger, and then starting to
5:28:38
massage the palms of the hand. Just turning the hand gently,
5:28:51
stretching it gently, and actually having your hand held can
5:29:01
really be an emotional experience sometimes even if it is
5:29:08
a stranger, so when you don't know very well, like
5:29:14
a massage person or a therapist, maybe because it's intimate
5:29:28
and you can feel nice, you can feel safe. And
5:29:41
as I put that right arm back down where it was,
5:29:50
to do the same with your left arm, exactly the same,
5:30:01
massage in the muscles your arm all the way down,
5:30:08
do your rest stroking the inside of your arm, just
5:30:20
being gentle or as firm as you require, and then
5:30:34
massaging your left hand, stretching the fingers gently, massage in
5:30:50
the palm of your left hand. You feel so so relaxing,
5:31:18
so comforting and just rest your left arm back down.
5:31:43
Start to message your back, the biggest part of your body,
5:31:55
starting at the top. Start again where we already have been,
5:32:02
the area at the top in between his shoulders, near
5:32:07
your neck. Going back the massage in that area again,
5:32:13
but this time moving downwards, taking a downward stroke to
5:32:27
the middle of your back, working from the outside inwards.
5:32:35
It's a massage in the your back, but the outsides
5:32:43
of your back, the parts where your arms would maybe
5:32:53
rest against, almost the path that connects your front to
5:33:06
your back, and just messaging down firmly but gently, as
5:33:23
firm as you want, moving down and moving across a
5:33:31
little bed, and moving all the way down again, be
5:33:35
very gentle yet firm as you choose. Eventually you get
5:33:48
to the spine. We can massage the muscles and either
5:33:53
side of your spine from the top of your neck
5:33:57
all the way down to your lower back. We can
5:34:09
do that a few times. Sometimes people use the knuckle
5:34:19
or the two fingers and just go your side of
5:34:24
the spine almost just push down, go all the way
5:34:29
down to the bottom of the spine, each time releasing
5:34:37
tension and opening up the body, stretching your body so
5:34:47
that you feel more relaxed but at the same time rejuvenated.
5:35:05
And now I'm going to move to one side, to
5:35:09
your right side, and from the bottom of your ribs
5:35:18
to your pelvis, I'm going to massage that area of
5:35:24
your back. I'll stretch over the other side and I'll
5:35:29
pull the muscles gently and massage and push from one
5:35:36
end that side or way to my side in the
5:35:41
middle of fact to where your spine is. Massaging that
5:35:47
side of your spine the opposite side to where I'm standing.
5:35:54
It's almost like kneading bread. There's that big area where
5:36:00
which is firm yet lots there to message. Potentially one
5:36:11
of the most important places to actually have a message
5:36:18
because you really feel it. You really feel the release
5:36:24
and the pleasure of having your lower back massaged. It
5:36:32
releases so much from your body that's not useful, starting
5:36:41
a healing process which will continue long after this recording
5:36:47
is over. The message in this part of your body
5:36:59
nine feels really good for you. It's actually fun to
5:37:04
do because it is, as I said, like kneading bread.
5:37:11
It's a part that you can really get hold of
5:37:15
and really message deeply. If that's your choice, then I'm
5:37:29
going to move over to the other side of your
5:37:31
body and do the same with the opposite part of
5:37:40
your lower back, kneading and messaging from your sides all
5:37:48
the way to the middle of your back where your
5:37:54
spine is less in and needing firm and gentle at
5:38:08
the same time. It feels so releasing this mixture of pleasure, comfort, release, calmness,
5:38:24
relaxation or mixed together. Plus there's that feeling from your
5:38:35
stomach as it's been stretched. Even though you're in your
5:38:40
stomach now, you can feel it being stretched because that
5:38:45
whole area is connected to your stomach. Now we're going
5:38:56
to move or move further up to your top of
5:39:01
your body and I do the same this time, starting
5:39:09
with your upper back. Put my hands forward over and
5:39:15
massive massage in that area up to your spine, from
5:39:23
the side of your body up to your spine. So
5:39:27
some of that massage area, the muscle tissue or whatever
5:39:34
fatty tissue even will be possibly from your chest. There's
5:39:39
all connected chest and the back connect together. I'm going
5:39:47
to be massaging and just pulling some of that skin
5:39:52
from your side up and massaging that area of your
5:40:01
upper back all the way to your spine and then
5:40:10
I'll move down a bit and I'll continue with the
5:40:12
middle of your back, doing exactly the same thing as gentle,
5:40:20
as deep as you choose. Now, I'll move the other
5:40:34
side again and do the exact same thing with the
5:40:39
top of your back on the other side, from pretty
5:40:48
much underneath your arm area really to your spine, and
5:41:02
then continuing that all the way down, including the lower
5:41:09
your middle of your back. I'm gonna go to your thighs,
5:41:28
the backs of your thighs, and the sides of your thighs,
5:41:38
starting with your right leg, and massage in the back
5:41:46
and the sides of your thighs gently and firmly. There's
5:41:55
a lot of muscles there. It's an area that can
5:41:59
be very tense at times and maybe needs a little
5:42:03
bit more pressure than the rest of the body that's
5:42:07
up to you. You can gently stroke the back of
5:42:17
your legs where you know, opposite your knee joint or
5:42:22
underneath your knee joint, very sensitive, gentle area. And then
5:42:36
working down to your calf muscles, massage in your calf
5:42:43
muscles thoroughly and deeply, if you choose, using both hands fingers,
5:42:58
digging deep to your ankles in the back of your
5:43:13
back of your ankles, just gently massage in the area,
5:43:24
maybe lifting the leg and stretching a little bit. Moving
5:43:41
to the right foot, massage in the bottom of your
5:43:56
feet and the sides of your feet gently but firm
5:44:11
enough so they don't tickle, and just allow the pleasure
5:44:23
that you get from having your feet massaged to just
5:44:28
overtake you as I continue to message your feet, the
5:44:37
bottoms of your feet, the sides, your arches, your heel.
5:44:48
You can put a lot of pressure into your heel
5:44:51
and it feels amazing, Yet the arches need to be
5:44:56
a bit more gentle. Stretching your toes gently, a massage
5:45:07
in the bottoms of your toes with my fingers, each
5:45:14
one individually, moving her to the left leg to do
5:45:27
exactly the same thing, starting at the top of the thighs,
5:45:38
work in the back of the thighs and the sides,
5:45:43
massaging deeply and gently the whole area, working all the
5:45:53
way down. And this is an area that maybe you
5:46:06
could like to spend more time relaxing and messaging. So
5:46:14
perhaps if you wanted like a bigger future recording, want's
5:46:20
spend more time on one particular area. As you move
5:46:29
down to your calf muscles. Massage and your calf muscles
5:46:43
firmly and gently moving down your raincor into your feet,
5:46:59
as the backs of your feet, the bottoms of your feet,
5:47:10
stretching your toes and message in each tone individually. And
5:47:18
the feeling of pleasure and release that you experience when
5:47:23
your having your feet massaged feels really good. Now should
5:47:45
turn over in your mind. Laying on your back, I'm
5:47:57
just going to start again for your neck area in
5:48:10
your shoulders, just to get back in touch with that area.
5:48:25
And as you move up, I can clean my hands,
5:48:36
make them more fresh, because now I'm gonna message your
5:48:40
face gently, starting off with your forehead. Your eyes are
5:48:56
closed and I can just strap hhmm your eyes a
5:49:02
little bit, pushing up on your eyebrows and just massaging
5:49:13
around your scalp, massaging down your cheeks, around your ears,
5:49:29
into your chaw, gently the sides of your neck chin
5:49:49
m hmm, and just moving down back down to your chest,
5:50:05
starting by message in the very top of your chest
5:50:13
where the collar bone is. Give a side of the collarbone,
5:50:26
and then just message in the hole of the chest,
5:50:39
moving the chest around because it's quite a large area.
5:50:53
You can move from one side to the next, moving
5:51:01
my hands underneath pretty much where your arms are stretching up,
5:51:14
stretching some of the muscles of your back in the process,
5:51:22
moving up over your chest and they're moving down again,
5:51:43
and then allowing my hands to just message gently and
5:51:48
slide down towards your stomach, starting in the middle of
5:51:55
your chest, and gradually my hands moving apart and massaging
5:52:06
and sliding at the same time, moving down to just
5:52:15
below your rib cage, moving down the messaging up again,
5:52:34
giving your chest all the attention that it needs to
5:52:42
feel completely relaxed, remembering that I'm also going to be
5:52:54
focusing on your sides as well, an area that really
5:53:01
doesn't get much attention but feels really good when it's massaged.
5:53:13
Just stroking my hands down the sides of your body,
5:53:21
just below your arms, all the way down to your hips.
5:53:34
Now moving to your stomach area. I'm going to stand
5:53:40
one side of you like I did when I did
5:53:43
your lower back. I'm gonna do a similar process of
5:53:49
just stretching the muscles from your side gently massage from
5:54:04
one side to the next, move in a whole area
5:54:13
from below your ribs all the way down to below
5:54:17
your belly. Button and then move around to the other
5:54:26
side of you and repeat that process of relaxing deeply, calmly.
5:54:45
You feel loose, you feel free. And it's something about
5:54:53
having your stomach message that's different from any other part
5:55:01
because we do have a tendency of holding a different
5:55:06
kind of stress in our stomach that we may not
5:55:10
be aware of. As I now message your stomach in
5:55:21
front of your stomach, making circles around your belly button,
5:55:34
and then going the other way around, there's a gentleness
5:55:44
and a freedom that comes from feeling how you're feeling.
5:55:55
As I now move down the tops of your thighs, muscles,
5:56:03
massaging them, and I can do this two legs at
5:56:08
the same time, pressing down, massaging deeply those muscles in
5:56:19
your thighs at front of your thighs, and moving down
5:56:29
to your knees, gently massaging your knees, sliding down your shins,
5:56:42
putting pressure on either side of your shin gently softly
5:56:50
but firmly, moving down to your ankles, stroke in the
5:57:03
tops of your feet, and then with each foot in
5:57:14
each hand, just gently messaging the whole of the foot,
5:57:23
the top, the bottom, your heel, your ankle, your toes,
5:57:31
messaging every part of your feet feels so good to select.
5:57:42
Go and enjoy the process. Enjoy feeling so deeply relaxed.
5:58:07
So much comfort and so many feelings become just from
5:58:15
touching your skin. And you can just lie there for
5:58:32
as long as you choose enjoying the feeling of deep
5:58:41
comfort from being massaged by me. Enjoy fear deeply. Right,
5:59:17
And all we're gonna do is blow out some candles.
5:59:26
In your mind, there are going to be a hundred candles,
5:59:48
and you're going to blow each one out individually, one
5:59:54
by one, starting at one hundred. As I count down
6:00:07
all the way down to one, and each time I
6:00:14
say a number, you can imagine that candle in front
6:00:23
of you, and I'd like you to actually physically gently
6:00:34
blow that candle out, just so it's not big blows,
6:00:50
just a gentle, and that candle will extinguish, and then
6:01:04
I'll say the next number. As we move down, then
6:01:12
you can just blow that one out as well. And
6:01:24
as we move down the numbers, you'll find yourself feeling
6:01:34
more and more relaxed. If you need to sleep, you'll
6:01:43
also find yourself becoming incredibly tired and sleepy. In fact,
6:01:55
you may struggle to blow out all one hundred of
6:02:06
these candles as you feel more and more deeply relaxed,
6:02:31
more and more deeply tired, and the further you go down,
6:02:51
the more your mind starts to drift. You may find
6:03:05
that you stop listening to me after a while. And
6:03:20
even though there may be background sounds where you are,
6:03:29
you'll be aware of those sounds at the moment, be
6:03:41
may start to just not even notice them at all,
6:03:58
because they're un important. Where I am, I've got the
6:04:12
sounds of the birds, there's horrors, the pigeon who likes
6:04:19
to say hello sometimes, and there's the odd plane that
6:04:25
goes by, maybe traffic and trains in the distance, But
6:04:42
none of that scene is important whatsoever. More candles you
6:04:54
blow out, the less important any thing.
6:05:01
Speaker 3: Is.
6:05:06
Speaker 1: More candles you blow out, the further you seem to
6:05:18
move away from sounds and from general date days. Stuff
6:05:37
seems to just move away on its own. You feel
6:05:52
more calmer with a candle you blow out, yeah, guiding
6:06:12
you the next number? Do you hear me say? And
6:06:29
then you blow that candle out too? H So easy,
6:06:45
so simple. We're gonna start by introducing the first candle,
6:07:10
which is a hundred first candles one hundred. When you
6:07:28
blow that candle out, you'll find immediately a slight change
6:07:48
in how you feel, as well as a real sense
6:07:57
of positivity growing within you, relaxation and sleepiness expanding. Starting

do woo and doy seven two Or let go of
7:06:11
all of those thoughts, worries, concerns about the past, thoughts
7:06:19
about the future, and even things you've been thinking about today.
7:06:26
Just let it all go because none of it is
7:06:31
useful in this moment, this is your opportunity to just
7:06:46
focus on feeling relaxed, allowing yourself to get in touch
7:07:00
with that natural sense of peace that we all have
7:07:10
within us. It's available for everyone. It just sometimes takes
7:07:18
a little bit of effort to set up the right
7:07:24
time and place in order for you to just let go.
7:07:32
Because when you do decide to let go and relax,
7:07:40
that's what your body starts to do because you've chosen,
7:07:48
You've chosen to just allow your body to unwind and
7:07:55
your mind starts to slow down. And it's a nice feeling.
7:08:04
It's a nice feeling at the beginning, just to know
7:08:09
that you have chosen to decide to relax deeply, and
7:08:19
because you've made that decision, your body will just follow suit.
7:08:28
Because sometimes all the muscles in your body need is
7:08:33
just permission from you to relax. Because so often we're busy,
7:08:43
we're going from here to there, we're walking around, and
7:08:47
we're doing stuff, and the body doesn't have any time
7:08:55
or space to really relax deeply. So it kind of
7:09:03
waits for you to lead the way, waits for your permission.
7:09:13
And when you do give your permission, when you give
7:09:20
the say so we you say okay, it's time for
7:09:26
your body to let go completely and relax totally. Your
7:09:36
body just follows. It's like a breath of relief. Ah good,
7:09:45
I can now relax. That feeling at the end of
7:09:52
a day, of a very physical day that you may
7:09:56
experience in the past, where you get home and you
7:10:00
just sit down on a chair, maybe you kick your
7:10:03
shoes off, and arm feels so nice knowing that you
7:10:10
don't have to get up again for a little while
7:10:14
at least if you choose, you can just sit there
7:10:18
for maybe an hour to It feels blissful. And just
7:10:31
by sitting down like that, your body knows that it's
7:10:36
time to relax. Your body has been given permission from you.
7:10:44
Because it's a mindset in your mind, you're prepared to
7:10:54
let go of everything and just completely allow all the
7:11:04
stress of your body to evaporate. Any tensions can just
7:11:13
gradually vanish. It's almost like magic, really, because that sense
7:11:33
of relaxation in your body, it's a very natural state.
7:11:41
It's not something unusual. It may feel unusual when you
7:11:46
first start to relax, if you if you haven't really
7:11:50
spent a lot of time focusing and giving yourself this
7:11:55
space to let go completely and relax. They seem more
7:12:00
most alien, but it isn't. It's actually the most natural
7:12:08
thing in the world to let go completely, to relax totally,
7:12:19
the most natural thing in the world to allow yourself
7:12:30
to feel really calm in your mind. And it is
7:12:37
almost like a literal unwinding. It's like you press a
7:12:45
button and all the tension just releases, and it's like
7:12:54
a wheel, like a cog, like the inside of a clock,
7:12:58
just unwinding. And it's almost like you could see that
7:13:03
the little wind up knob that's used just going the
7:13:08
opposite way that you choose to wind it up, and
7:13:14
the energy that fremetic stress for energy gradually winding down,
7:13:25
losing its power, losing its strength. As a sense of
7:13:32
relaxation becomes stronger and deeper, and you may find a
7:13:44
the more relaxed you feel, that your mind starts to wonder,
7:13:55
maybe seem to stop listening to me for a while,
7:14:02
Your mind goes somewhere else, and then you realize you're
7:14:08
listening to me again, and that's just your mind to
7:14:13
drifting to sleep, which is quite natural, because sometimes when
7:14:24
we're stressed and tense, we're not I mean, I actually
7:14:31
be aware of what we need, what we physically or
7:14:36
emotionally need in this moment. But when you allow your
7:14:46
body and mind to relax completely and you let go
7:14:52
of all thoughts, concerns, worries, ideas, all letting them go
7:15:02
allow them to drop onto the floor. When you start
7:15:10
to get in touch with the feelings of such relaxation,
7:15:23
this feels so nice to be in touch with the
7:15:30
calmness of the different body parts as they become looser
7:15:40
and looser. Even your breathing seems easier and more natural, effortless,
7:15:57
as that cool land through your mouth or nose into
7:16:03
your lungs, breathing in comforts and relaxation, and then just
7:16:14
breathing out any excess remain intentional stress from every part
7:16:23
of your body and mind. And as you start to
7:16:31
focus on your mind, maybe you notice that things come
7:16:40
to a standstill or maybe just much much lower than before,
7:16:51
because your mind is not really needed when listening to
7:16:58
my voice, which allows your mind to relax just as
7:17:08
deeply as your body. And that's synchronicity between the relaxation
7:17:19
of your body relaxation of your mind. Let you know,
7:17:31
feeling completely calm, loose, and relaxed, really is a great
7:17:45
healing experience fear and has so many positive and it
7:18:00
fits for your body, mind and your life to be
7:18:08
able to let go everything and to relax completely in
7:18:19
all parts of your body and mind. Even your bones
7:18:27
has rised, all your muscles are rised, Even the skin
7:18:43
that covers your body.
7:18:48
Speaker 8: Is relaxed.
7:18:54
Speaker 1: Every hair.
7:18:58
Speaker 11: That you have.
7:19:01
Speaker 1: There's also deeply relaxed. And your brain restarts the feel
7:19:19
the benefits but this healing relaxation, and as you focus
7:19:34
on the inside of your scalp where your brain is,
7:19:40
you can start to realize and notice the benefits of
7:19:48
your brain relaxing deeply. Then as your brain team is
7:20:00
to relax sends those messages to the rest of your
7:20:10
body and your mind to re relax more deeply, relaxy
7:20:31
more completely, letting go of any remaining force or consers,
7:20:49
allowed them just to drop onto the floor because they're
7:20:56
no longer necessary in this moment, In this moment of
7:21:04
deep relaxation and calmness, filling your brain with deep concentrated heathing, calming,
7:21:35
relaxing every part of your brain feeling so loose and comfortable,
7:21:57
so relaxed and be peaceful. Your brain feels so light
7:22:13
that's so healthy in that sense of deep deep comfort
7:22:24
really does allow you to enjoy those ever increase in
7:22:37
sensations of comfort that are spreading throughout your body, relaxing
7:22:52
each and every muscle of your body, deeper, deeper, much
7:23:11
more deeper than before, much more comfort spreading through your body.
7:23:31
In your mind, be so peaceful and calm, so very
7:23:47
very peaceful in avery part of your body, letting go
7:24:03
mm hm a everything aything, so peaceful time, so relax
7:24:26
a very second the passes you feel.
7:24:36
Speaker 12: Dper deper relax, dper and dper relax.
7:24:58
Speaker 1: Come so calm peace for so very peace from your
7:25:17
head down to your ties. Such peace and comfort growing
7:25:30
all all the time, Such peace and comfort spreading through
7:25:44
your body and mind deep and deeper, such comfort spreading
7:26:00
and sinking deeper into every muscle your body, so that
7:26:12
you feel amazing, so laxed, so piece so so last
7:26:35
and piece, so letting go everything to do a body scan,
7:26:54
focusing on firstly how you feel in your body, not
7:27:00
trying to change how you feel, not trying to relax,
7:27:07
not trying to move away from any discomfort or stress
7:27:12
or tension, just accepting, observing and accepting how you feel
7:27:20
in the different parts of your body, just allowing yourself
7:27:27
to be exactly as you are, to notice to get
7:27:34
in touch with how you actually feel in this moment.
7:27:46
I'm going to start off by focusing on your hands.
7:27:57
Just be aware of your hands. I'd like you to
7:28:05
move your hands around, just maybe move your fingers a
7:28:10
little bit. I've been and closing your hands very gently,
7:28:18
just so that you can gain in touch with how
7:28:24
your hands and your fingers fell, very very slow movements.
7:28:47
Focusing now on your feet, and if you can just
7:28:55
do kind of an equivalent with your feet is you've
7:29:00
just done with your hands, Maybe turn in your ankles,
7:29:08
moving your feet around, moving your toes gently, but only
7:29:18
very gently and very slowly, noticing how your feet feel
7:29:32
in this moment. Focusing now and your eyes, and I'd
7:29:45
like you to just focus on your eyelids. Maybe you
7:29:52
can open and close your eyes a couple of times
7:29:56
to really get in touch with how you feel. When
7:30:00
you do close your eyes, the muscle changes in your
7:30:09
eyes when you do close them, maybe raising your eyebrows,
7:30:17
it stretches the tops of your eyes, perhaps squinting your eyes,
7:30:28
scrunching up your eyes just so you can hear it again.
7:30:34
Touch of all aspects of how your eyes feel right now.
7:30:57
Now focus in on your thighs, and you know it
7:31:03
just starts you to gently tense your thighs, just very
7:31:11
very gently, just enough so you can become more attuned
7:31:24
to the physical sensation of your upper legs, the front
7:31:33
of your thighs, in the backs of your thighs, noticing
7:31:43
and observing how your thighs feel. Right now, moving your
7:32:00
focus to the back of your neck, just noticing the
7:32:09
back of your neck, the muscles, and of course they
7:32:15
lead to the side of your neck. They also lead
7:32:20
to the top of your back, which leads to your shoulders.
7:32:27
So as your focus on the back of your neck,
7:32:32
maybe you can move your head gently upwards as if
7:32:39
you're looking up.
7:32:42
Speaker 7: Maybe moving your head down as if you're looking down.
7:32:50
Perhaps moving your head side to.
7:32:53
Speaker 1: Side, right to left, but only yeah, very slowly and
7:33:04
very gently. I'm not trying to force anything. It has
7:33:13
to be very very gentle, just so you can be
7:33:24
more in touch with the feelings, with the sensations, of
7:33:35
physical sensations of how the back of your neck feels.
7:33:46
Right now, as we now focus on the tops of
7:34:01
your arms, the parts where your biceps and your triceps
7:34:08
are between your elbow and your shoulders. To focus on
7:34:16
those parts the tops of your arms, you may like
7:34:23
to just tense them, but very very gently and slowly,
7:34:36
so you're not straining or put in any pressure whatsoever
7:34:44
on your arms.
7:34:48
Speaker 7: It's just so that you can.
7:34:53
Speaker 1: Gain more of a sense of how you're upper arms
7:35:02
are feeling in this moment and just noticing as you gently,
7:35:16
very gently and slowly tighten the muscles and then let go.
7:35:30
Notice how the tops of your arms feel right now
7:35:46
as a now focus on your stomach, the area the
7:35:57
lower abdomen area, your belly button, moving all the way
7:36:04
down to your hips, just a part of your grind.
7:36:17
Maybe you're able to tense these muscles in that area
7:36:25
very very gently and slowly. If that's a difficult thing
7:36:40
to do, maybe you can just move your body, pushing
7:36:50
your stomach up, maybe moving a little bit to the
7:36:55
side using your hips. Just you can get more in
7:37:04
tune with how your lower abdomen area is feeling in
7:37:19
this moment. Just noticing the physical sensations or your lower
7:37:37
abdomen As you move your attention to your mouth, notice
7:38:01
in your lips and inside your mouth, the teeth, your guns,
7:38:12
your tongue. Just noticing how your tongue in your mouth feels,
7:38:31
and it may help by moving your tongue around your mouth,
7:38:40
moving it to your left, maybe pressing it gently against
7:38:48
the side of your mouth, and then to the right,
7:38:54
gently to the side of your mouth, pressing up against
7:39:01
the top of your mouth, and then down gently against
7:39:10
the bottom of your mouth, always very slowly, in a
7:39:21
very very gentle so that you can be aware of
7:39:40
how you feel in your mouth area. Now I'm going
7:40:03
to focus on your wrists, and I'm going to ask
7:40:18
you to maybe just routine your wrists by moving your
7:40:27
hands in a circular motion very gently and slowly, just.
7:40:42
Speaker 7: So you can.
7:40:49
Speaker 1: Feel the sensations that you are can't currently experiencing in
7:41:07
your risks. Perhaps move in your hands up and down
7:41:20
again very very gently and slowly, very gentzl and slow.
7:42:01
Speaker 7: As you now.
7:42:04
Speaker 1: Start to observe your lower back. The bad part is
7:42:21
just above your hips where your coxis are a whole
7:42:37
area which also really does include the signs of your
7:42:44
body because those muscles are very much connected. There's those
7:42:55
muscles also move into your hip aeria. Yeah, connecting to
7:43:02
your buttics, the sides of your hips, and if you're
7:43:18
physically able to do so, maybe you can very gently
7:43:29
just move body ever so slightly, very slowly from side
7:43:42
to side, just enough to gauge how you feel in
7:44:02
your lower back.
7:44:11
Speaker 7: Perhaps it could even move your hips gently up and down, gently, slowly,
7:44:31
in order to.
7:44:36
Speaker 1: Be in touch with the physical sensations of your lower back.
7:45:03
Speaker 7: As we know.
7:45:09
Speaker 1: To your attention to your jaw, that area from your
7:45:20
chin all the way up to near where your ears are. Oh,
7:45:30
your jaw, you can just yeah, it's okay to do so.
7:45:47
Gently open your mouth, not wide, no stretching, just very
7:45:58
gently and slowly opening your mouth thing closing your mouth
7:46:13
very gently and slowly, so you can be in touch
7:46:39
with how your jaw feels. Now, I just sit now
7:47:16
your chest area, and you don't need to do anything
7:47:31
to move your chest because it moves every time you breathe,
7:47:43
and it moves very gently and slowly automatically with each
7:47:56
breath you takee As you focus on how your chest
7:48:17
feels when you pray, move in your focus to your forms,
7:49:00
your elbows. Maybe you're able to very gently and slowly
7:49:18
tense the muscles in your forearms, and when you do that,
7:49:28
you can feel your elbows as well, very gently and slowly,
7:50:00
yectly insoftly ob sad your forearms and del bas Noah.
7:50:40
Focus the rest of your back, your upper back in
7:50:59
the middle or the middle of your back again this
7:51:16
part of your body. News. Also every time you pray.
7:51:32
You may not notice that. Usually these you serve your
7:51:45
upper back in the middle of your back. You can
7:51:53
really feel that gentle thinks minn your focus into area
7:52:57
of buttics the brain. There's muscles and those bones in
7:53:09
your midsection. Just noticing how there were hips feel right
7:53:49
now you can very very gently leave your hips, maybe
7:54:12
side to side, very gently and very gently softly mus no.
7:55:06
Everything starts to slow down, including the thoughts in your
7:55:22
mind and your mind itself just starts to gradually. It
7:55:34
doesn't have to be instant, but just gradually starting too.
7:55:42
It's almost like time is straight shin. It's a slower
7:55:51
pace to maybe what you're used to in your day
7:55:59
to day life. It's a slower movement of energy, very
7:56:25
small movements which make up the larger movements. This is
7:56:34
always the case. Now, when you move your hand, it
7:56:42
might seem like it's one movement, but it's lots of
7:56:45
minute different muscles moving in accordance with each other. And
7:56:58
what happens in this space that we're sharing is we
7:57:10
move from that big movement into those smaller movements. Starting
7:57:31
to focus on how your body feels, not just as
7:57:42
a whole, not just oh, i'm feel in this way.
7:57:47
I'm feeling stressed or tense, or I'm feeling relaxed and calm.
7:57:54
I'm feeling this way, I'm feeling that way. Starting to
7:58:01
notice that your body begins to present to you small
7:58:13
feelings around your body, small physical sensations in your legs,
7:58:32
whether pleasurable or not. Maybe resisting the temptation to label
7:58:46
them or to judge them those feelings, just thinking them,
7:58:56
thinking about them is just being neutral, just feelings, not
7:59:09
being particularly concerned, but just noticing what your body is
7:59:20
telling you. The feelings in your arms. Instead of feeling
7:59:34
the hole of the arm, maybe notice those individual feelings,
7:59:44
all those different muscles and the skin, the hairs of
7:59:56
your arms, the all the inter all parts of your arms,
8:00:01
the veins, the bones. Just being aware of maybe your
8:00:20
elbow on your right arm has a certain feeling, maybe
8:00:29
your left wrist also has its own individual physical sensation.
8:00:54
What about your forearm, on your right arm, you're right forearm,
8:01:08
there may not be any particular feeling that you could
8:01:15
even give a name to, may not feel like anything
8:01:23
other than just a feeling. You know, it's there. The
8:01:34
feelings in your shoulders, perhaps your shoulders when you think
8:01:40
about them, kind of almost like they're the same, you know,
8:01:46
the same feeling, almost like both of your shoulders are
8:01:51
just one thing. Of course they're not. And when you
8:02:04
focus on your left shoulder and then on your right shoulder,
8:02:12
maybe find that you move the muscles a little bit,
8:02:18
maybe tense the muscles gently, noticing the difference in each shoulder.
8:02:44
Speaker 13: Your lower back, the left side of your hour back
8:03:00
and the right side of your lower.
8:03:03
Speaker 1: Back of course that connection to your buttocks and to
8:03:15
your hips, and also moving up into the middle of
8:03:27
your back. And sometimes like right now, actually when I
8:03:41
focus on their part, when I focused on my buttocks
8:03:47
and then I focused on the middle of my back,
8:03:51
it almost felt like the muscles in my lower back
8:03:54
were being stretched very gently, just stretched a little bit,
8:04:06
even though I wasn't doing anything to try to stretch
8:04:15
your lower back, it just seemed to happen. The feeling
8:04:20
of very gently stretching your lower back comes along. I
8:04:40
have feeling in your chest, just noticing what sensations you
8:05:05
are experiencing in your chest right now. And there's so
8:05:23
much of the chest. Obviously, there's the collar bone leading
8:05:27
to the chest. You've got the chest bone, You've got
8:05:34
the muscles in your chest. Of course, if you're female,
8:05:42
there's possibly the breasts. Your male you've got the different
8:05:54
well might not that different these days, but there may
8:05:58
be more muscles at the top of the chest, but
8:06:07
at the side underneath, it's pretty much the same. Whether
8:06:12
you're a man or a woman. There's muscles there, muscles
8:06:17
that stretch out to your back as well as breast
8:06:22
tissue which stretches and moves into your back. To just
8:06:30
being aware of your chest, being with whatever feeling there
8:06:50
is in your chest. When I noticed that, I focus
8:07:10
on my chest, I feel it in my back and
8:07:18
my upper back. I mean, I guess the obvious reason
8:07:22
would be because you know, I'll breathe in in and
8:07:32
it stretches my chest and my back at the same time.
8:07:44
It feels it feels okay, it doesn't feel a little
8:07:59
bit of in my right chest a little bit, not pain,
8:08:06
but little discomfort, maybe.
8:08:10
Speaker 14: Stiffness possibly, I don't know. I noticed my shoulders are
8:08:18
also wanting to.
8:08:23
Speaker 1: Flex for some reason. I think that's probably part of
8:08:28
my upper back, that connection between my shoulders and my
8:08:37
upper back, because I can move my shoulders and stretch
8:08:42
the muscles in my back, moving the shoulders backwards or up,
8:08:52
which then moves. I think it's the scapulous in your back.
8:09:08
It feels quite nice. Actually, a good thing about this
8:09:16
is you can, if you want to, you can just
8:09:24
flex or stimulate the various muscles in your body gently
8:09:38
in order to get more of the sense of how
8:09:41
they feel. And when you're relaxing, when you do tense
8:09:56
and muscle and you let it go, that it relax
8:10:02
It relaxes way more than it would normally. That you
8:10:14
have to feel that you're able to do that. There's
8:10:21
no point in doing it if there's an issue with
8:10:27
the per part of your body. You need to be
8:10:33
gentle with yourself at all times when relaxing deeply. It's
8:10:46
important to be kind to yourself. As you notice your mind.
8:11:06
How much has your mind slowed down since we started
8:11:14
this recording? How came and peaceful is your mind right now?
8:11:47
We have nothing to think about and just my voice
8:11:52
to listen to, because you know, the intention behind this
8:12:03
recording is relaxation. At the very least, for you to
8:12:12
feel more relaxed at the end of the recording than
8:12:17
you did at the beginning. At the very least, your
8:12:29
mind to slow down because your body continues to relax,
8:12:46
because that's.
8:12:47
Speaker 3: What you.
8:12:50
Speaker 1: Want to happen. That's what you expect to happen, a
8:13:10
relaxation to fill your body, maybe calm in your mind
8:13:29
to the point of boredom. When you start maybe to
8:13:42
drift away breathing, it's almost as if you're moving further
8:14:24
away from your body in your mind, just leaving that there,
8:14:41
kind of liking it an escape pod and the spaceship
8:14:45
a movie, a space movie, you know, and against that
8:14:49
little part in it since the mom far away from
8:14:56
the spaceship Safe Dream two to relax drifting so slow
8:16:18
and be so so o pa so and focusing on
8:17:13
the feeling for those individual parts of your body that's
8:17:31
or relaxing.
8:17:33
Speaker 7: One by one.
8:17:42
Speaker 1: You may find that every now and then you realize
8:17:54
that you aren't listening to my voice because your mind
8:18:06
started to imagine something different, maybe started to almost move
8:18:21
into some kind of a dreamy state. And then you
8:18:30
become aware of my voice again. And even though you
8:18:38
may want to focus on my voice, you may also
8:18:45
wish to allow your mind to just drift naturally into
8:18:59
that space of comfort and safety. As you feel more
8:19:21
comfort spreading through your body like a warm blanket covering
8:19:34
you gently, keeping your body at just the perfect temperature.
8:19:58
And even if you can hear background sounds, they just
8:20:10
don't seem to matter anymore. There's that sensor peace spreads
8:20:28
through your mind like a gentle grease, yet strong enough
8:20:42
to blow away all negativity, strong enough to remove from
8:20:58
your mind any anxiety or stress that was there before,
8:21:16
and blow away any other thoughts or feelings that just
8:21:27
don't fit with the sense relaxation that is feeling your
8:21:51
body and your mind. Unless you focus on your mind
8:22:16
and count down from ten down to one, and with
8:22:22
each number you hear, your mind will become slightly more relaxed,
8:22:51
just just slightly, from ten down to nine, just as
8:23:00
my movement nine down to eight just another small change
8:23:15
in how you feel eight down to seven. That feeling
8:23:27
is a gap almost like a gap that starts to
8:23:33
get wider, the gap between those feelings that you used
8:23:42
to have in your mind compared to the feelings you
8:23:50
have there growing now, feelings of comfort and security and confidence,
8:24:03
and the gap becomes wider. Eight down to seven, seven
8:24:10
down to six. When you get to five, the mind
8:24:19
will start to have a certain physical sensation, most like
8:24:32
there's a magnet outside of your head sucking the tension
8:24:39
and the stress and any remaining feelings that you don't want,
8:24:47
sucking them out through your skull. And in down to
8:24:56
four you can start to really experience that sense of
8:25:05
not just emptiness, but space, place full of fresh air,
8:25:21
place where you can stretch. It's almost as if as
8:25:28
you go down to four and three, your mind is
8:25:32
expanding with this sense of peace and tranquility growing it
8:25:47
moves down to when you get to one, your mind
8:25:58
just feels exactly how you want to feel, almost perfect feeling,
8:26:17
maybe the sensation that.
8:26:23
Speaker 7: You'd like to keep.
8:26:28
Speaker 1: A place that's safe, where nothing can affect you at all,
8:26:50
and you can stay in that that space of confirm
8:26:56
confidence for them in your own ability to create this
8:27:06
space and this feeling of comfort within your own mind
8:27:13
just by counting ten.
8:27:17
Speaker 7: Down to one.
8:27:23
Speaker 1: And this is something that you can do yourself when
8:27:27
you're on your own, the time when you can maybe
8:27:35
sit down, maybe just for a few minutes, close your eyes,
8:27:47
just count slowly from ten down to one and re
8:27:59
experience these feelings in your mind. And when you feel
8:28:12
that way in your mind, your body copies your mind,
8:28:27
and the feeling is spread through your spine and your
8:28:33
nervous system into every part of your body, travels through
8:28:41
your bloodstream, healing and relaxing every particle of your existence.
8:29:08
And we can we can practice this a few times
8:29:17
before the end of the recording, and then you can
8:29:21
practice on your own. And each time you count for
8:29:28
ten about one, the feelings of comforts, calmness, and deep
8:29:42
deep relaxation becomes stronger and deeper feeling your mind brain
8:30:02
with these positive chemicals, the spread throughout your body, relaxing
8:30:11
you so quickly, relaxing your whole body and mind so
8:30:23
very very easily just by counting ten down to one.
8:30:41
Speaker 7: So we're gonna do now.
8:30:43
Speaker 1: I'm going to count from ten down to one. I'd
8:30:47
like you to repeat the number after me. So when
8:30:52
I say ten, you can just repeat to yourself.
8:31:00
Speaker 7: Ten.
8:31:06
Speaker 1: Just notice, be aware of how you feel in your
8:31:15
mind and your body. Then when I say nine, you
8:31:25
can beat to yourself nine again, noticing the increase in
8:31:41
comfort and calmness in your mind and in your body.
8:31:55
The same when I say eight, I want to say seven, six,
8:32:07
I want I say five, four, when I say three, two,
8:32:26
and lastly when I say one, you can beat that number.
8:32:39
Speaker 7: Now.
8:32:40
Speaker 1: Of course, when you do this on your own without
8:32:45
listening to me, you can say the numbers or whatever
8:32:52
speed that you feel is necessary for you, so you
8:33:01
can adapt. So you feel you want to say the
8:33:07
numbers ten down to one faster than I do, then
8:33:14
you go ahead and do that. Or if you feel
8:33:18
when you do it yourself that you'd like to have
8:33:22
more more space between the numbers, maybe take a lot
8:33:30
longer to get from ten all the way down to one.
8:33:42
That's your choice also to do. So I'm going to
8:33:54
count from ten down.
8:33:56
Speaker 7: To one, and when I get to one, I will At.
8:34:05
Speaker 1: The end of this recording and muscurse, you're listening with music,
8:34:13
and the music will continue ten nine, five, four, twenty, ninety, eighteen, seventeen, sixteen, fifteen, fourteen, thirteen, twelve, eleven, ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five,
8:40:15
four three two one. Now open your eyes, noticing how
8:40:48
you physically feel having counted down from twenty to one,
8:40:56
allowing stress intention to leave your fingertips and your toes.
8:41:03
And as you focus on your fingertips.
8:41:07
Speaker 7: Maybe they feel a little bit tingly, which is I
8:41:13
suppose quite an understanding considering attention has been exiting your
8:41:18
body through your fingertips.
8:41:26
Speaker 1: So now I'm going to count from twenty down to
8:41:28
one again. This time you get to feel relief of
8:41:36
tension and stress in the anxiety.
8:41:41
Speaker 7: That you may have.
8:41:46
Speaker 1: Leaving through your stomach. Just leaving through your stomach, almost
8:41:55
as if it's just releasing the whole your stomach. You'll
8:42:02
naval to just above your chest or below your chest,
8:42:06
rather so surround in your belly by an area, the
8:42:10
whole area. You can feel the tension of your body
8:42:17
where it's left, just releasing from the area, and you
8:42:22
may notice that your stomach.
8:42:24
Speaker 7: Will become very relaxed.
8:42:27
Speaker 1: As I countdown from twenty down to one. Now twenty nineteen, eighteen, seventeen, sixteen, fifteen, fourteen, thirteen, twelve, eleven, ten, nine, eight, seven, six,
8:43:48
five four three.
8:44:02
Speaker 7: Two What and You can open your eyes again if
8:44:15
you choose, or you can just keep them closed because
8:44:18
the girls relaxing.
8:44:22
Speaker 1: Just notice how your stomach, girls, I notice, there's your focus.
8:44:27
Just do a little scan of your body. Just notice
8:44:32
how your body of girls focusing.
8:44:38
Speaker 7: On your upper body, your back, chest, stomach, legs, arms, hands, feet,
8:44:48
Just noticing, and you know, you may.
8:44:55
Speaker 1: Start to a more a sense of tire, which may
8:45:01
be the reason listening to this according because you would
8:45:08
like to let go completely of everything and dread into
8:45:18
a nice, natural, calm, relaxing sleep. So now the focus
8:45:36
on your forehead, and if you choose, you can incorporate
8:45:43
your eyes in this focus as well. Your forehead and
8:45:48
your eyes, it's that whole area basically almost as if
8:45:54
you were wearing a mask.
8:45:56
Speaker 7: You know, like a I don't know that man mask
8:46:01
or something or I'm trying to.
8:46:05
Speaker 1: Fa zorrow or something, you know, the kind of mask
8:46:08
that covers your eyes but also covers quite a lot
8:46:10
of the forehead. We're focusing on that area because that's
8:46:17
the area that we're now going to release tension and
8:46:21
stress from your.
8:46:22
Speaker 7: Mind and your brain, from your mind, and any tension
8:46:28
that you may have remaining in your face, in your
8:46:32
neck and your jawl, and your eyes and your forehead
8:46:38
or your scalp. So basically, any tension within your head area,
8:46:45
including your mind and your brain, and that's going.
8:46:52
Speaker 1: To be released through your forehead and your eyes. As
8:47:00
I count down again from twenty down to one now
8:47:09
twenty nineteen, eighteen, seventeen, sixteen, fifteen, fourteen, thirteen, twelve, eleven, ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five, four.
8:48:37
Speaker 7: Three one.
8:48:55
Speaker 1: Lettice he scan face, mature, your eyes, the cheap bones,
8:49:06
your ears, your forehead, your scalp.
8:49:13
Speaker 7: Your neck, the back of your neck, in the front
8:49:17
of your neck, the side of your neck, and the throat.
8:49:23
Speaker 1: M h. Noticing being aware of the comfort increased in
8:49:35
the relaxation, not just in your head and neck and mind,
8:49:45
also the rest of your body. Just notice how loose
8:49:55
and calm you feel, and how easily.
8:50:01
Speaker 7: It is to just let go.
8:50:05
Speaker 1: Completely, let go completely now easily. So what I'm going
8:50:29
to do, vows, I want to focus on the.
8:50:33
Speaker 7: Top of your head. I'm going to allow.
8:50:42
Speaker 1: Every last piece of tension or stress of mind lingering
8:50:51
or highly in your body.
8:50:54
Speaker 7: Your mind head.
8:50:57
Speaker 11: To just.
8:50:59
Speaker 7: Be sucked down on the top of your head at
8:51:06
least and yeah, I wants sucked down into the clouds.
8:51:16
Speaker 1: Imagine a pack cloud of got your head and it's
8:51:21
like a whirlpool, and this is.
8:51:23
Speaker 7: Can suck that tension. How at the top of your
8:51:28
head you just take away good your focus. Imagine an
8:51:40
opening on the top of your head with a tension,
8:51:45
stress and in remaining issues, maybe worries of concerns that
8:51:51
have no use to you. Now you can all be
8:51:55
sucked down at the top of your head, taken away.
8:52:01
As I counted down again for twenty down to one
8:52:09
now twenty nineteen, eighteen, seventeen, sixteen.
8:52:44
Speaker 1: Fifteen.
8:52:50
Speaker 10: Fourteeneen twelve.
8:53:11
Speaker 1: Eleven nine eight seven six five.
8:53:53
Speaker 10: Four three.
8:54:02
Speaker 3: To what.
8:54:18
Speaker 1: Breath? I'm noticing how you feel, how relaxed and calm
8:54:36
you physically and mentally feel right now, How peace so
8:54:50
your mind feels. It feels so nice to just let go,
8:55:00
give yourself some space to breathe easily, to think.
8:55:08
Speaker 15: Calmly, just to take a break from all that pointless worry.
8:55:20
Speaker 1: Concerns about things that you don't need to think about
8:55:28
right now, because this is your time to let go,
8:55:37
This is your space to enjoy feeling deeply relaxed, peaceful
8:55:47
in your mind, relaxed.
8:55:49
Speaker 7: In your body.
8:55:53
Speaker 1: They can feel so good, so nice must not have
8:56:03
to do anything to be able to really enjoy that
8:56:13
serenity that comes of letting go completely, that peacefulness that
8:56:22
comes with.
8:56:30
Speaker 7: Being in this.
8:56:33
Speaker 1: Peaceful space. And you can keep this sense of calmness
8:56:44
for as long as you choose. You choose to drift
8:56:56
off into deep, healing natural sleep, and you can do that,
8:57:07
It's completely up to you. And you can keep this
8:57:15
feeling of calmness physically, mean in your mind, as long
8:57:22
as you choose to feel completely relaxed, completely relaxed.
8:57:39
Speaker 8: And I'd like you to make up your mind that
8:57:44
you're going to relax, and want.
8:57:54
Speaker 1: To explore that with you. What it feels like when
8:57:58
you actually decide that you're going to relax, not forcing yourself,
8:58:07
but giving yourself that. Yes, it is a command, really,
8:58:13
isn't it. When you're telling yourself relax in a gentle
8:58:20
but firm way, that only.
8:58:24
Speaker 7: You can really tell yourself in that way. You can't
8:58:30
really have someone else saying.
8:58:31
Speaker 1: To you, now it relax, relax, you know, and it
8:58:37
needs to be gentle, but you can't someone else can't
8:58:39
really have the same the same kind of influence or
8:58:49
power that you have over your own physicality, over.
8:58:57
Speaker 7: How you feel, because when you say it to yourself,
8:59:07
it means more.
8:59:10
Speaker 1: It's personal, and your brain and your unconscious mind and
8:59:16
your body listens to what you say. So for example,
8:59:23
we'll test it out and do a little test, a
8:59:26
few little tests along the way, and you can get
8:59:30
more of an idea of the force, the positive force
8:59:37
that you can have in creating a sense of comfort
8:59:44
and relaxation in your body and your mind quite quickly
8:59:50
just by you telling yourself to relax.
9:00:00
Speaker 7: So I'm going to start.
9:00:02
Speaker 1: By it's focus on your hands. To focus on your
9:00:08
hands and just tell your hands to relax, and just
9:00:12
say relax. As you focus on.
9:00:16
Speaker 7: Your hands, you could say.
9:00:20
Speaker 1: My hands are relaxed, or I want my hands to relax.
9:00:27
I think if you actually do it directly by focusing
9:00:33
and imagining that your hands can hear what you're saying.
9:00:37
Speaker 7: You know they've got little ears, which is a little weird.
9:00:43
Speaker 1: So talking to your hands and just say relax.
9:00:53
Speaker 7: I'm gonna dessin.
9:01:00
Speaker 1: How your hands start to relax. Now, focus on your
9:01:15
eyes and tell your eyes to relax. You're just saying
9:01:19
the same word relax and find the right tone for you.
9:01:29
You know, I might say relax, but you you might
9:01:34
say relax or relax. You know, you might say it
9:01:41
differently to yourself, and that's important for you to gauge
9:01:49
what feels right for you. Just tell your eyes to
9:01:56
relax whilst focusing on your eyes, your eye lids, the
9:02:00
muscles around your eyes, your eyebrows, and just tell your
9:02:05
eyes directly relax now. Now, I just did that myself,
9:02:41
And sometimes you may feel.
9:02:49
Speaker 7: That you need a bit more time.
9:02:53
Speaker 1: For the different parts to relax, you know, because I
9:02:57
start talking again and maybe that part hasn't relaxed fully.
9:03:03
But what happened is that it would just continue to
9:03:05
relax even though I'm talking. And that's happening with my eyes.
9:03:13
Something else I noticed is when I started focusing on
9:03:17
my eyes, that actually almost became They got worse before
9:03:21
they got better in a way. So I felt a
9:03:24
degree of tension growing in my eyes and then disappearing.
9:03:31
So I think what that was really was just me
9:03:34
becoming more aware of the tension that was already there.
9:03:40
Speaker 7: But I wasn't focused on it before, so I wasn't
9:03:46
really acknowledging it or.
9:03:51
Speaker 1: Really conscious to those feelings. Yeah, my eyes are still
9:04:05
continuing to relax as well as my hands. Actually, my
9:04:12
hands have got a certain kind of energy, like not buzzing,
9:04:19
but I can kind of.
9:04:22
Speaker 7: Feel a degree of energy in my hands. Maybe that's
9:04:28
where the.
9:04:28
Speaker 16: Tension is being released. Maybe that's supports in that the
9:04:40
next part, I think we should focus.
9:04:42
Speaker 7: On the back of the neck.
9:04:44
Speaker 1: That's a part which is quite often well for me,
9:04:48
holds tension.
9:04:49
Speaker 7: I don't know about it for yourself that I think
9:04:52
it's quite a standard place where tension is sometimes held.
9:04:58
Speaker 8: So, and I'm doing.
9:05:02
Speaker 7: Exactly what you're doing as you do it as well,
9:05:04
so I'm telling my body parts to relax as well.
9:05:09
So if you tell your.
9:05:10
Speaker 16: Neck at the back of your neck, focus on the
9:05:13
back of your neck, and just say relax in your
9:05:19
own words, in your own tone, in your own voice.
9:05:23
Speaker 7: You can say out.
9:05:24
Speaker 1: Loud, or you can just say it to yourself internally.
9:05:28
But you're focusing, and you're saying it literally to the
9:05:33
back of your.
9:05:33
Speaker 7: Neck, as if the back of your neck can actually
9:05:37
hear what you're seeing. So do that now, Just say
9:05:44
relax to the back of your neck, and I'll do
9:05:48
the same.
9:06:27
Speaker 1: Now, what I noticed and you may have that similar
9:06:30
thing is, even though I was focusing.
9:06:34
Speaker 7: On the back of the neck, other parts started to.
9:06:46
Speaker 1: I don't know, showed themselves to me or maybe because
9:06:49
they want to be relaxed as well.
9:06:51
Speaker 7: But I started noticing the feelings in my shoulders, attention
9:06:56
in the shoulders and in my upper back.
9:07:01
Speaker 16: Whether that was because my back of my neck was saying, well,
9:07:07
I'm pretty much okay.
9:07:09
Speaker 7: It's the other parts that need attention, but my.
9:07:18
Speaker 1: Low of my back of my neck is still relaxing.
9:07:23
But I just became more aware of other parts that
9:07:25
needed attention. Now, this might happen and it's not. It
9:07:34
doesn't mean that it's going wrong. It just means you're
9:07:38
being notified of more places.
9:07:42
Speaker 7: But also want to feel relaxed.
9:07:48
Speaker 1: So I'm going to focus on my upper back.
9:07:52
Speaker 7: So you can do the same. Even if you don't
9:07:56
have any feelings of tension that obvious in your upper back.
9:08:03
You just focus on your back and the whole area
9:08:08
from the shoulder blades down to the middle of your
9:08:13
back and your spine. And with me, it's more the
9:08:17
shoulder blades.
9:08:18
Speaker 9: That are more.
9:08:23
Speaker 7: Yeah, that's the parts that are really sort of given
9:08:29
me the log that it needs relax in the sounds
9:08:35
going to ask that part to relax, and you can
9:08:38
do the.
9:08:38
Speaker 9: Same, now.
9:08:50
Speaker 1: Relax in upper back. Something strange happened there, And this.
9:09:08
Speaker 7: Often happens.
9:09:09
Speaker 9: I've been doing this.
9:09:09
Speaker 1: For sixteen years or something, and often the one surprised
9:09:19
but amazed really that there can be a feeling.
9:09:26
Speaker 16: So when I was focusing on the back of my neck,
9:09:29
my upper back was starting to feel quite stressed and
9:09:34
in need of attention. As soon as I started talking
9:09:40
to you about my upper back and talking about, you know,
9:09:46
getting ready to ask the upper back to relax, why
9:09:51
the back already started to relax.
9:09:55
Speaker 1: It's almost as if it doesn't need to hear the words,
9:09:59
just needs attention, just needs to be noticed. And that
9:10:17
is something that often happens in this type of situation.
9:10:25
Is when you start to relax a couple of parts
9:10:30
of your body, as we've done with our hands, the
9:10:35
eyes and the eyelids, and.
9:10:39
Speaker 7: Now back of the neck, talk of the bag of
9:10:47
the back, the rest of the body seems to just
9:10:52
take notice.
9:10:56
Speaker 1: And decide in its own way start relaxing.
9:11:04
Speaker 7: Other parts of your body.
9:11:06
Speaker 1: Start to just.
9:11:09
Speaker 7: Become looser.
9:11:14
Speaker 1: I suppose it's kind of like a bit of an avalanche,
9:11:17
you know, the little ball starts rolling, and before you
9:11:22
know it, the whole of your body.
9:11:24
Speaker 7: Is completely relaxed and can't.
9:11:35
Speaker 16: And if you focus on your face, you focus on
9:11:42
your eyes, the eyelids, your eyebrows, and the muscles around
9:11:51
your eyes, and maybe you start to notice that your
9:12:00
forehead is more relaxed than it was. Maybe your face
9:12:06
is more relaxed. I would say my entire face is
9:12:12
a lot more.
9:12:13
Speaker 1: Relaxed than it was. So you're going to focus now
9:12:27
on your shoulders again, just like before. Just to your shoulders.
9:12:35
I mean you can do them in the digitally. You
9:12:38
can do the right shoulder and your shoulder.
9:12:41
Speaker 7: I just can't do both at the same time.
9:12:46
Speaker 16: Just tell your shoulders as you focus on them in
9:12:49
your mind, focus on how you feel.
9:12:53
Speaker 1: Maybe you can see them in your mind's eye. Just
9:13:01
tell your shoulders.
9:13:06
Speaker 7: To your eggs as nice as they werenas.
9:13:56
Speaker 1: I didn't notice.
9:14:00
Speaker 16: But especially with my back, is the connection between the
9:14:06
different parts the back, the shoulders, the.
9:14:11
Speaker 7: Neck being all connected and being such a.
9:14:20
Speaker 15: Large part of your body, it's almost hard to separate.
9:14:26
Speaker 7: Them from each other. And my lower back has starting
9:14:34
to relax on the same Maybe you're going too slow
9:14:46
and that could be an issue because we will go
9:14:49
at different speeds.
9:14:53
Speaker 1: And the idea of the beginning of this recording was
9:14:57
for you to be able to just say to yourself,
9:15:03
relax without focusing on any particular part of your body.
9:15:18
Because when you know that turning your hands to relax,
9:15:28
your hands relax, you tell your eyelids and your eyes,
9:15:37
the muscles around your eyes and your eyebrows to relax.
9:15:48
They relax.
9:15:54
Speaker 7: You tell the back of your neck to relax and
9:16:06
relaxes until you're out back to relax.
9:16:33
Speaker 1: And diferaxes. I tell your shoulders to relax.
9:16:57
Speaker 7: If they relax. You told your hands to relax, they relaxed,
9:17:25
and they continued to relax.
9:17:34
Speaker 1: And you told your eyelids, the muscles around your eyes,
9:17:41
your eyebrows to relax. They relaxed.
9:17:49
Speaker 7: And continue to relax. MHM. Told at the back of
9:18:01
your neck. Leant on the back of your neck and
9:18:08
told it to relax.
9:18:13
Speaker 1: And relaxed.
9:18:16
Speaker 7: And continued to relax. And you told your alpa back
9:18:33
to relax, be relaxed and continued to relax.
9:18:50
Speaker 1: That's with your shoulders. I told your shoulders to relax,
9:18:56
and your.
9:18:59
Speaker 7: Shoulders really and cotinue.
9:19:07
Speaker 1: To relax.
9:19:14
Speaker 7: And it's not just that, it's.
9:19:21
Speaker 16: That the rest of your body is also been listening.
9:19:27
Their relaxation has been spreading. So from your eyes, the
9:19:34
relaxation spread to your forehead, around your face.
9:19:41
Speaker 7: Into your skin, into your jaw, into the front of
9:19:54
the sides of the neck, hold way down your chest
9:19:59
and doumb.
9:20:07
Speaker 1: Relaxed hands and shoulders.
9:20:11
Speaker 7: Its up through your arms, relaxing before arms, your upper arms,
9:20:21
elbows and wrists.
9:20:26
Speaker 9: Let you know, you know a.
9:20:35
Speaker 7: Back hips that's exploit Just start to relax with the t.
9:20:47
Speaker 9: E lo.
9:20:49
Speaker 7: Comfort spreading for your legs, all the way down your ankles,
9:21:06
the tops of your feet, the side of your feet,
9:21:12
and the bottoms of your feet, relaxing into your toes
9:21:27
in your tone relexing because release.
9:21:49
Speaker 1: And then your body relaxes one your mind becomes slow, peaceful.
9:22:14
Speaker 7: It's the point where if you choose to for a sleep,
9:22:28
you can easily do that easy drift theay because there's
9:22:45
nothing going on in your mind.
9:22:51
Speaker 1: The prase is peaceful. The body teased.
9:23:31
Speaker 7: With that connection between the body relaxing, the word you
9:23:39
said to yourself. Lights means that you don't need to
9:23:53
focus on just one part. You can just focus on
9:24:01
the entire body. Saying about a word writes deserves the media.
9:24:32
Speaker 16: Sensations of comforts spreading throughout the body. You sing, calming.
9:24:51
Speaker 7: And the easing every power to your body de les.

Speaker 7: So counting down from ten to one.
9:40:15
Speaker 17: Ten nine, eight, seven, six, five, four.
9:40:33
Speaker 7: Three two one, And maybe that was a bit too
9:40:48
quick in order to relax, and it's.
9:40:51
Speaker 1: At too fast for you to notice the calming.
9:40:58
Speaker 7: Of your body, maybe even a little bit of pressure there,
9:41:04
Like you'll count it down from tens of one. Would
9:41:08
you expect me to do? Man, expect me to stick
9:41:11
all work for me just because you're counting down and
9:41:21
try it again. It's time I got this slower.
9:41:27
Speaker 1: It's time that you focus on the hold of your body.
9:41:34
Speaker 7: Before you go it some legs. Just notice how your body.
9:41:41
Speaker 8: Does start.
9:41:45
Speaker 7: To feel more relax Every number that I count down.
9:42:00
Speaker 16: Ten, nine, eight, seven, six, one, four, three, I just notice.
9:43:42
Speaker 7: How hey you fortunately, hey? What he feels is not
9:43:55
necessarily even now counting down a ten to one. It's
9:44:06
that space that you have, that space between being active,
9:44:25
physagree or inte.
9:44:27
Speaker 9: It's just.
9:44:32
Speaker 7: I'm sitting and lying down, just being there, not doing anything,
9:44:38
not saying anything wrong, needing to think about anything. So
9:44:45
old a space, the space, the gap.
9:44:59
Speaker 9: I count down, the things to work think of.
9:45:02
Speaker 7: That gap becomes.
9:45:07
Speaker 16: So is that gap comes the comfort relaxation. It's a
9:45:19
nice feelings, those expresses or discomforts physically, an emotionally loose.
9:45:38
Speaker 1: Wait allows you.
9:45:49
Speaker 9: To just.
9:45:52
Speaker 7: Slowdown, something to count the game for ten out of work.
9:46:01
That's a gap. When again, I lon't widened, it's almost
9:46:10
like the stress sort of teaching falls into again what
