Speaker 1: Hello, and welcome to jasonnew Land dot com. Hello everybody,
0:11
how are you? This is now going to be my
0:16
voice now that I am fifty five and an old man,
0:23
I'm going to be very gentle, but ever so croaky.
0:30
Oh I'm not sure what I'm going to talk about,
0:36
but I'm a tone of wondering that. So, hey, it
0:42
is Wednesday, the twenty seventh of August two thousand and
0:49
twenty five. Yeah, baby, it really is, which meant yesterday
0:59
it was my birthday, August twenty sixth. So I'm sitting
1:07
here with Anny covered up next to me. I got
1:14
my iPad in front of me, so I'm going to
1:17
read out some stuff. This is basically just a thank
1:24
you recording. Really, that's all this is. So you know,
1:33
please only listen when you can safely close your eyes.
1:38
If I haven't already said that, And man, looking at here,
2:00
I no idea what this is. You know it's Facebook.
2:11
So yeah, fifty five, I don't know what to make
2:24
of it. I know, technically, you know, it's only another year.
2:33
Me literally, it's only another day, isn't it really from
2:35
the day before? But it's you know, it's one digit
2:41
more one number. We know what digit means one number.
2:55
But did I feel young at fifty four? I don't know.
3:01
I felt fresh. People would ask me how old I was.
3:04
I sound fifty four, and I'd feel full of pride
3:08
and the youth, and figure that they'd be really impressed
3:13
of how young I was. But now I imagine that same
3:21
scenario and I'd say fifty five, and they alright, they
3:29
run away screaming, and I shrink into the cracks of
3:36
the pavement out of embarrassment. I don't know. I didn't
3:44
do it yesterday. I did. I treated myself to a
3:51
takeaway to the little one here out a couple of times,
3:58
three times, twice, three times. I can't remember, No, three times,
4:04
I think, yeah, it would have been three times, well
4:11
four times, including popular in the garden for a wei,
4:16
thinking he needed a Wi Wi. But he didn't need
4:18
a we Wei. All he wanted to do was try
4:21
and get underneath the neighbors. I should explain what this is.
4:30
So my neighbor, not in this block, but in the
4:33
next block. He's got himself a new mobility scooter I
4:42
think they called I call it a new car, but yes,
4:47
and a mobility scooter. And he's about eighty three, eighty
4:54
four something like that. It just really don't look it.
5:00
He looks way younger. And I actually had the chat
5:09
for him the other day and he told me all
5:10
about it and why he's got it and everything. So
5:14
I don't see him very often, but when I do
5:16
see him, we're a good old chin wag. We get
5:20
him very well. He was very close to Luke because
5:25
they're next door neighbors. It's a different building, but they
5:29
were next door neighbors. The buildings. His part of the
5:31
buildings joined My part of the building isn't joined to anything.
5:36
It just ends. No one wanted to be my neighbor,
5:42
the builders decided, so he Luke to the left of
5:51
him was their flat, and he was very close to
5:58
both him and his wife. His wife, really close to.
6:03
His wife used to go and speak to Luke and
6:05
then spend hours chat. We'd go in the garden and
6:09
they're really really good friends. And she passed away and
6:16
he kind of kept up his relationship with her husband.
6:21
I mean they were friends of her husband as well,
6:24
but because you know, it'd been in a couple of
6:26
years before I moved in, and I never really got
6:32
to know his wife. But a little bit, but not
6:39
a lot, because I suppose because I'm a little bit shy.
6:47
You know, my dad had a few chats with her,
6:53
but I sort of I've got to know him a
6:59
little a lot more than I did her. So anyway,
7:03
I was just chatting to him because he was He
7:06
was outside and I saw him standing over this machine
7:12
looks like a lawn mower a little bit from a distance,
7:17
but there. I do need my eyes tested, and literally
7:20
I do, and he was. I thought I'd just go outside.
7:36
Did I have Viny with me? I don't think I did,
7:42
because if I had it done, no, I might have done.
7:46
No I did, Yeah, I did, BlimE my air, I
7:49
did have Vinnie with me. So I went out just
7:54
to see if he was okay, if he needed a
7:56
hand with something, because I didn't know whether or not
7:59
he'd be out in it, and because I've not seen
8:01
him use it. It's only been out there for like
8:07
maybe two weeks, and it's got this big cover on it,
8:13
and to start with, I thought was like a little
8:17
tent and he was just I don't know. I didn't
8:23
know what it was underneath there until that day when
8:27
I saw him like without the cover on, not him
8:30
without the cover on, but the mobility scooter without the
8:33
cover on, because he must have taken the cover off.
8:40
So I thought, oh, instead of standing here in my underpants,
8:48
perhaps I go down and see how he's getting on
8:51
if he needs a hand. So I get Vinnie, put
8:57
him on the lead, headed my way down to the
9:02
got to the bottom stairs and thought, I wait a minute.
9:06
I went back upstairs, put some clothes on, and then
9:10
came back down and he wasn't there. He wasn't in
9:14
the garden anymore. But the scooter was the his new car.
9:21
I'm going to call him in his new car, because
9:23
that's what I called it to him, and Finny was
9:30
very interested in it, and he has been since been
9:34
there and I couldn't figure out why he actually thinn
9:41
He pretends he needs to go for a wee wize
9:45
just in order for me to take him in the
9:47
garden so we can try and get underneath that tarpaulin
9:52
or whatever it is the cover and I've not figured
9:58
it what it is, although I do no he has
10:02
a bit of a fascination with those things because he's
10:07
got a couple of friends that he said helo to
10:10
that are on those mobility scooters, and he gets so
10:15
excited when he sees them he tries to get on.
10:19
I think he would be happy to get on one.
10:23
I think he actually wants one for himself. He's lazier
10:28
than me, little bugger when he honestly, I think he's Uh.
10:36
If I bought him my motorbike, I think he'd be
10:38
over the moon. He's a bit of a speed freak,
10:45
I think, old Vinny. Maybe it's because I can't let
10:50
him run around because I can't allow him off the lead.
10:54
So you know, it's weird, though, isn't it. I can't
10:59
let him off the lead. But he thinks I'm going
11:00
to let him have a motorbike and ride around. If
11:05
I can't trust you off the lead, vin I'm going
11:09
to give you something that goes eighty miles an hour
11:11
and let you on a motorway. Am I no, eighty miles?
11:16
Now probably a lot more than out on they I
11:18
don't know. So I go downstairs anyway, and the blokes
11:27
it's not in the garden, so I walk around his
11:30
front doors open. So I thought, okay, I'll just shout.
11:34
Well I'm not shout shout, but like hi, Hi. The
11:42
thing is, he's got like a heart condition, so I
11:47
don't I'm saying it not because it's personal. Obviously, I
11:54
don't want to make him jump, So I have to
11:57
begin out being gentle, you know, try.
11:59
Speaker 2: And like Hi, are you there.
12:05
Speaker 1: Hello? And he couldn't hear me. I think he's got
12:12
hearing neighbor as well. But it's sort of kind of
12:16
you know, I don't want to be like I would
12:19
and him go oh and be you know, be startled
12:28
because a similar thing happened, but it's completely different thing happened.
12:31
Actually it was similar because it involved him, but it
12:35
didn't really involve him, but he was part of the story.
12:41
The other neighbor, another neighbor which lives in the same
12:45
block as him, came outside and I was in the garden.
12:49
This is a few months ago. It was in the
12:52
garden with any and it was like two o'clock, one thirty,
13:02
two o'clock in the morning. It was in the summer,
13:06
so it was you know, it wasn't even cold. It
13:08
was just a nice, nice kind of probably May June time.
13:15
And the young bloke who lives in that block comes out,
13:20
made me jump. Then he just got excited to start
13:25
barking brilliant at two o'clock in the morning. That's what
13:28
I needed. I didn't need it, That's what I meant.
13:33
It was sarcasm. Okay, how to explain sarcasm? So yeah, anyway,
13:44
he comes out, I said, why are you made me jump?
13:49
He laughed. He helped me off the floor and I said,
13:55
He said, you're okay now, I said, yeah, I got
13:56
my breath back. He said, I said, what were you
14:00
doing hanging around in the dark. He said, I was
14:06
going to ask you the same thing. I said, yeah,
14:08
but I've got a dog. He said, I've got a dog.
14:11
You haven't got a dog with you here, have you?
14:13
I said, no, it's in the house. I said, I
14:18
don't feel this conversation is going anywhere to you. He
14:20
said no, Should we start again? So he did. He
14:25
went back into the into this building, and I kind
14:29
of walked back upstairs, took my clothes off and just
14:37
looked out of the window with me underpents on and
14:42
I see him come out and he's stand there looking
14:43
for me, and like, perhaps when he said to his
14:46
start over me, perhaps he went inside as a joke
14:53
and I took it too serious and I kind of
14:55
overdid it, so I had to put my clothes back
14:58
on again and went downstairs and to the garden. He said,
15:01
where were you? I said, but I just you know
15:06
when you when you went when you said should we
15:08
start over? And you went inside as a joke. I
15:15
did it as well, and I went upstairs, but I
15:19
ended up taking my clothes off. He said, well, that's weird.
15:26
I said, you're weird. He said no, I mean, why
15:30
would you go upstairs and take your clothes off? I said,
15:34
because that's how I was before I came down. I
15:37
was standing looking through the window, looking out into the
15:42
garden in just my my underpants. And I realized as
15:50
I said that, I actually thought that I myself was
15:55
a bit weird because it seemed like a kind of
15:58
strange thing to do, strange thing to tell anyone that
16:02
I've just done. And he did like point that out.
16:07
Why are you? Why are you standing in your flat
16:11
just in your underpants looking out into the garden. I said,
16:19
what does it matter what I'm wearing? He said, yeah,
16:22
but it sounds a bit strange that you would tell
16:25
me that. I said, yeah, but they're my windows. I'm
16:33
allowed to look through them. You know they's see through
16:38
for a reason. He said, yeah, but they's see through
16:44
both sides. You know we person we can see you
16:48
in your window? Said no, you can't. He said, yes
16:52
you can. You can't see me when I'm at my window.
16:55
He said, yeah, I can see you when you're window.
17:01
I said, all right, then wait here. I went back
17:04
upstairs and I waved to him. He said can you
17:08
see me? And he started laughing. So I shouted out
17:15
open the window, said can you see me? He said no,
17:18
but I made you go up there. He was laughing,
17:22
so he said you can come back down and said okay.
17:25
So I had to put my clothes back on again,
17:27
went all the way downstairs, and I said why why
17:35
did you do that? He said do what? I said,
17:40
why do you Why do you say you could see
17:42
me and get me to go all the way back upstairs,
17:45
take my clothes off? It saw me me underpants, and
17:49
you say you can't see me? He said, why did
17:56
you get undressed again? I said, I would be funny.
18:03
He said, okay, this is going nowhere, is it? I
18:05
said no, not really. He said, I thought you was
18:09
going to sort of thank people for your birthday messages
18:12
and the PayPal gifts on this podcast. I was, I was,
18:18
but I seemed to have got a little bit sidetracked.
18:24
He said, Yeah, I noticed you do there quite a lot.
18:26
It's almost like the press record and you start talking
18:38
and you don't know where it's going to go, like
18:41
you've got no preparation. But you don't even rehearse, do you?
18:48
I said, rehearse? I can't even spell the word. What
18:54
do you mean? Why would I? How could I rehearse this?
19:00
He said, have you ever tried to rehearse, you know,
19:04
actually put together some kind of well written podcast episode
19:14
where at the very least you're coherent. I thought, Wow,
19:24
he's saying that I'm incoherent, he said, in a not
19:27
a bad way, just in a kind of a bit
19:34
mumbled a bit, not not not verbally. It's not that
19:40
I can't verbally understand the words that you're saying. It's
19:46
just it's not always easy to follow because you're going
19:53
in different directions, and then you keep going back on yourself,
19:58
and then which a thing that you were talking about
20:01
has gone out on my mind because you're talking about
20:06
something different, and I'm wondering even though I can't remember
20:10
what you first started out talking about, whether or you
20:14
can remember what you were talking about, and if we're
20:18
ever going to get back to that, or you're just
20:21
going to continue this way until something else hooks your
20:26
interest and you start talking about that other thing. I said,
20:33
are they new shoes you've got there? He says, why
20:38
are you asking about my shoes? I said, I'm just
20:41
being friendly, I'm just wondering. I'm just I decided I
20:44
want to get a new hobby, and I thought maybe
20:47
shoes would be an interesting hobby. He says, two things. Firstly,
20:55
I don't believe you. What do you mean? I don't
21:00
believe By the way, how is people I got to
21:03
ask you, Jason, I said, yeah, okay, I didn't know
21:06
any of my name. How are people listening supposed to
21:10
know which one of us are talking? I said, well,
21:14
what I said, you should at least do a different voice.
21:19
Otherwise it's just one person talking right now. It could
21:25
be me or you. Yeah, but you isn't it now?
21:30
You know you know that because you're here. You can
21:34
you know it's me talking. But the audience don't know
21:39
who's talking. I think they do think I think you, uh,
21:45
you downplay the in the intellectual prowess of my listeners.
21:51
I have a very selective, highly intelligent base of people
21:58
that listen to my recordings. There's no dumb dumbs listening
22:03
to me. It's all super clever people. And we both laughed,
22:11
and I said, why do you think that I'm lying? Well,
22:20
what do you mean? What about it said about the shoes. Oh, okay,
22:23
we're going back to that now. We Yeah, it was genuine.
22:26
I'm thinking of becoming interested in shoes. He said, you can't.
22:32
He can't decide. He can't. He couldn't get the words out.
22:37
He said, you can't decide to become interested in something.
22:43
I said, what do you mean? He said, you're either
22:47
interested in something or you're not interested in it. You
22:50
can't just choose. Oh, I think I'm going to become
22:55
interested in this thing. And I got an idea. I'm
22:59
going to become interested in bird houses, building bird houses.
23:06
That's I think I'm interested in becoming interested in that.
23:11
So you can't be interested in becoming interested in something?
23:15
Is that what you're saying? I think so, he said, hmmm,
23:29
So what else do you not believe? He asked me, No,
23:36
what else? I said to him, what else don't you believe? Steve?
23:39
And I'm getting confused? He said, you aren't. Yeah. I said,
23:44
that was a narrative over the narrative. He said, you're
23:48
kind of a narrative over a narrative. I said, I can.
23:56
I mean, I think it's a commentary over a narrative
24:00
you're thinking about. I said, I don't know what it is.
24:07
He said, Okay, your shoes, the ship and my shoes.
24:14
You said, do you think my shoes are Iso said yeah.
24:18
And I would argue that you were being insincere. And
24:22
I said, what do you mean? He says, two in
24:25
the morning. You can't even see my shoes. He caught
24:31
me out there. I couldn't see anything. I could hear
24:36
a voice. I wasn't even one hundred percent sure as him,
24:39
to be honest, I said, anyway, if you're getting all that,
24:49
why are you hear.
24:53
Speaker 3: It?
24:53
Speaker 1: Shaid I live here. I said, no, I don't mean that.
24:59
He's what you want to Are you talking about biologically?
25:03
I said no, I just like, why are you in
25:06
the garden at two in the morning? He said, I'm
25:10
locked out? I said, why did you? You could have
25:17
told me this right at the beginning. That's the beginning
25:21
of the sentence, Hi, I'm locked out. That would have
25:24
saved us like twenty minutes of talking absolute nonsense. And
25:29
he said, yeah, but he kind of got half a
25:32
podcast out of it. I said, yeah, true, but it
25:38
has distracted me from the point of the podcast, which
25:42
was to thank my listeners for all the lovely birthday
25:47
messages and the PayPal gifts. That is why am I
25:51
on here to do that. That's what this recording was
25:54
specifically for. He said, are you just interspersing that throughout
26:00
the recording just so you have said it and then
26:04
you're just continue talking rubbish. I said, don't analyze me,
26:12
don't analyze, don't don't pick apart everything I'm saying, and like,
26:16
you know, oh, why are you saying that?
26:18
Speaker 2: Then?
26:19
Speaker 1: Why are you doing that? Then? Me me, me, me, me, me me. No,
26:24
I don't play that game, mate, He said, don't call
26:27
me mate. I said, all right, I'm sorry. He's a
26:32
big lad. I don't want to upset him. And I said,
26:38
so you're locked out? He said yeah. I said why
26:42
He said, because my key, my key. I said, no,
26:47
I understand what lockdown means, because I can't open the door. Yeah,
26:51
I understand that. Why don't you just knock on the
26:57
door because your lizen was mum, he's only I think
27:00
he's like twenty years old or something, nineteen twenty. It's weird.
27:05
He was ten years old. And I moved in it
27:08
and he said, oh, I can't. I said why not?
27:17
He said, my mom's not here. She's away for the
27:20
weekend or a few days or something. I said, oh,
27:31
what neighbors. Is there anybody got a key? Is there
27:39
anybody in your block that's got a key? And he said, yeah,
27:43
two people.
27:46
Speaker 4: Or one?
27:46
Speaker 1: No, one person. I think it was the one that
27:50
bloke with the scooter outside. I said, well, why don't
27:59
you give him a knock? He said, I did really lightly,
28:03
so I don't want to disturb him at two o'clock
28:05
in the morning. And I said, there's not really any
28:08
point knocking on his door if you don't want him
28:10
to wake up. I mean, if you knock him really lightly,
28:17
if you don't want him to actually hear you, what's
28:19
the point in doing it to start with. He said, yeah,
28:24
that's a valid point, actually yeah, and thought about that.
28:28
I said, exactly, there's no point in knocking on the
28:32
door if if you purposely don't want him to hear.
28:37
So I said, just knock. Why are you not allowed
28:40
to He said, I don't want to disturb him. I said,
28:43
but he's got the key, your emergency key. Yeah, he
28:47
said yeah. I said, well, this is an emergency. That's
28:54
the whole point of a neighbor having any key is
28:57
if you lose your key, because I think he lost it,
29:00
or he'd left his friends, or I don't know, if
29:04
you lock yourself out. No, it wasn't the summer. Was
29:09
it the summer? I think it was still. Yeah, it
29:12
wasn't warm. I don't know if it was warm. I
29:18
want to make this story a bit more, a bit
29:22
more exciting. There was a blizzard. There was a blizzard
29:27
and everything was being blown away, and it was like
29:33
a scene from The Wizard of Us, the not the
29:40
one where they're walking down at the yellowpic road singing.
29:45
But anyway, he said, I don't want to wake him up.
29:51
I said, well, to be fair, that's kind of the
29:54
whole point of why he's there. He said, that's a bit.
30:00
It doesn't exist so I could wake him up at
30:04
two in the morning. I said, no, I don't mean that.
30:07
I mean, that's the why he's got your key in
30:10
case of an emergency, and this is an emergency. I
30:14
mean it's it's he's only sitting around outside, all right. Well, anyway,
30:21
I knock on the door, and as I'm knocking, I'm
30:24
realizing that he's you know, he's got his health conditions,
30:30
and I don't want to wake him up either, because
30:37
I'm like, oh, you know what, You've got a point there.
30:42
So I think that I end up tapping. I just
30:51
I saw him a few days later, the bloke that
30:53
was they so he should have knocked louder I said, yeah, thanks,
30:59
doesn't help hour though, does it help?
31:01
Speaker 2: You know?
31:01
Speaker 1: It doesn't help then telling me that now, So I thought,
31:08
why don't you go? What else can we do? And
31:11
he said that's right. I was just go and sit
31:13
in the garden and just wait until it's a decent
31:18
hour because and then he's going to knock on the
31:21
bloke store to get you know, in the morning, about
31:24
seven or whatever. And I said, you can't be out
31:28
here all night. I said, let's get I said, let's
31:34
phone a what's it. Let's phone the council. Get them
31:41
to come out and they can put. I think he's
31:47
having a dream. Can you hear? It's not gonna do it?
31:55
Speaker 5: Now?
32:00
Speaker 1: That's annoying. It does this? Eh eh, I don't know
32:06
what he's dreaming. Now. We don't know. There's no way
32:10
of known, is there. Yeah? So we also, oh, this
32:24
is a well planned story. Let me look at my notes.
32:27
I've been hours writing this story out for you. This.
32:32
Oh yeah, where else? I don't know what I'm saying. Yeah.
32:38
I said, well, why don't we call a counsel up
32:42
and get a locksmith. This is an emergency because they've
32:46
got an out of hours thing at the council. So
32:51
he said, oh, if you're sure, I said, yeah, come on.
32:53
So I brought him up here. I phone the council
33:01
and they said it was not really an emergency. I said,
33:03
it is an emergency. There's a young lad. He can't
33:08
get into his home. Have you got a neighbor that's
33:11
got a key? Yes, like, oh yeah, but we can't.
33:17
I said, look, he won't wake up. I've knocked on
33:20
his door really loudly. He can't get him out of bed.
33:25
He said, he you is sure? I said, what do
33:27
you mean? You sure? You're You're not loudly. I said, yeah.
33:33
Why why are you questioning that? He said, are you sure? Jason?
33:38
I said, this is weird. Why are you talking to
33:40
me like that? He said, I don't know. I'm just wondering.
33:44
You're sure it wasn't just because you're concerned. He didn't
33:47
want to, didn't want to jolt him out of his sleep,
33:52
and didn't want to upset him. Didn't want to, you know,
33:59
cause problem. I said, this is a weird conversation. Do
34:03
I know you? He said, yeah, it's me. It's Tom,
34:07
I said Tom. He said, yeah. We used to work
34:10
together in the call center Tom Tom. Yeah, Tom, I
34:24
worked in a canteen. Oh I know mate. How do
34:28
you recognize me? He said? Oh? No, I knew where
34:32
you lived, did you Yeah? I always knew where people lived.
34:41
Now I should add here, he's not listening to this
34:45
part of the conversation. I should add to Tom. I
34:50
mean he works in a canteen work with me. I
34:56
used to get like a food mainly just like snacks, really,
35:03
you know, things like breakfasts and stuff, breakfast rolls and stuff.
35:10
But I wasn't working. It's not like he sat next
35:14
to me and all we did the same job. I
35:17
mean technically we worked together as far as being in
35:20
the same organization. Huh. I said, all right, anyway, how
35:25
are you doing? He said, oh, so much to tell you.
35:30
I said, okay, well if you hold that in for
35:33
a second and perhaps we can get this key situation
35:37
sorted out. He said, all right, just like you, that is, Jason.
35:43
I said, why is that? He said, always thinking about work,
35:48
always putting work first. And I said, are you sure
35:53
you've got the right Jason? We laughed. We did laugh
35:58
at that. Everyone laughed, even a bloke downstairs. He woke up,
36:02
put his head out the window like that. That was
36:04
a good one, and he went back to sleep again.
36:09
So the council said, well, I said, look, he's a
36:15
young lad. He's on his own. His mum's away, because
36:18
that's the first thing, al where's his mum? Then I said, look,
36:24
he's a young lad. He's outside on his own two
36:27
in the morning. He needs his mom's not coming back
36:32
for three days or two days. Can you please send
36:36
a locksmith round. He can stay here till locksmith gets here,
36:40
and then you know, he said, well, I see what
36:44
I can do. Then he phones out and says, oh no,
36:50
I can't do that for whatever reason. So so he
36:56
looks at me, go and mind, I go and sit
36:58
in the garden. I said, you're welcome to sit on
37:01
the city if you want, and wait till the morning.
37:06
And I'm looking out the window at this point and
37:09
I look back and he's gone. He's literally run out.
37:14
Do you know when you see the cartoons where people
37:18
are running through a door and you see the shape
37:20
of their body left in the door, like in a
37:22
hot gap. That's what it was like. He didn't want
37:27
to stay here, blind me. After all I did to help.
37:35
So yeah, anyway, my voice is getting croaky. I need
37:40
a drink. I didn't do much yesterday. Really, I spoke
37:53
to my dad for a little bit and I didn't
38:01
even do it. I didn't even do it a recording.
38:06
It's terrible, and its terrible of me. Yeah, I just
38:20
I didn't want to do anything. I just wanted to
38:22
just just relax. Whitter Dide had a shower that was.
38:40
It wasn't so much because it was my birthday, but
38:43
it's like, you know, it's more because my neighbors asked
38:48
me to Apparently once a year is not enough. Yeah,
39:02
so I didn't realize people were joking when they said
39:04
I'm going to have my annual shower, have my annual
39:07
barth on my birthday. I thought that was like a thing.
39:10
But people were joking. I mean always said, let me
39:13
know when they're joking, all those years of scaly skin.
39:22
So I the bloke with the it's not a beach buggy?
39:34
Is it kind of like a beach buggy? But the
39:42
little car thing in the garden, I'm saying to him,
39:52
Vinnie is absolutely obsessed with getting under there. And he said, oh,
39:58
because one of my cats sleeps on the seat because
40:02
it's very warm and cozy. I said, oh. And then
40:09
the weird thing about that is both those cats can
40:13
lay on the garden and Vinnie will go nowhere near them,
40:18
like no one near them. He will walk around them,
40:22
even if he was on the lead of the lead.
40:24
He's never off the lead in the garden or anywhere else.
40:26
But he would not if he was on the lead
40:31
of the lead. Rather, he would still walk around. He
40:34
won't go anywhere near those cats. He's a little scaredy
40:38
cat himself. It's weird that word's scaredy cat, because cats
40:45
aren't scared, are they? Cats? Are brave. Cats are fearless,
40:53
sometimes a little bit run away from dogs. I don't
41:00
think it's even from fear. It's almost like it's a
41:04
bit of fun. Or dogs chasing me, oh, something that
41:11
can only move probably twenty of the speed that I
41:15
can move, or I think on a or dogs running
41:19
towards me. I'll just finished reading this newspaper and then
41:23
I'll jump onto I'll hop onto the fence and just
41:26
laugh at it, look it up at me, barking. You
41:32
can't get to me, can you. I might climb that
41:36
tree and get stuck, or pretend I'm stuck, just to
41:41
annoy the neighbors, to get more worried. And then as
41:47
one of the neighbors managed to get a big one
41:49
of those big things what they call the ladders, and
41:54
gets up to me, and I can scratch them and
41:56
just jump down and giggle, because that's what cats do.
42:02
Speaker 5: Yeah, not all cats.
42:07
Speaker 1: I remember in nineteen nineteen eighty, probably nineteen eighteen nine, yeah,
42:34
probably about nineteen eighty nine, maybe ninety nineteen ninety, nineteen
42:45
eighty nine, I went around some friends place and they
42:49
had two cats, two kittens. I picked one up. It
42:54
weed all over me, they found it hilarious. And I
43:02
swear that these two cats, these two kittens were running
43:07
around the walls. I'm not even joking. They were running
43:23
around the walls, chasing each other. Now, back in those days,
43:28
we used to have wallpaper. You might still have wallpaper.
43:34
I don't know. I don't have it here, but everywhere
43:37
have wallpaper back in them days, pretty much apart from
43:40
those places it didn't. So they had somebody cling on
43:45
to their claws. But they were running around the walls,
43:50
up and down the curtains and around the walls, almost
43:54
defying gravity. And you may think I'm telling FIBs, and
44:01
I might be, but my memory, that's there's something that
44:07
I've never seen before, and it just made me like wow,
44:15
that's just wow. It wowed me. In fact, I might
44:22
have actually literally verbalized the wow, like wow, but probably
44:30
more like wow that thing. That's my voice was a
44:33
lot higher pitched before puberty. He was only twenty five.
44:46
I don't know what. Oh yeah, anyway, So that was
44:50
that done. So that's the only reason Vin he was
44:52
trying to get underneath that tar paul in or whatever to
44:56
get to the beach buggy thing was because the cat
45:03
had been sleeping on the seat. Makes no sense because
45:11
if there was, if he thought a cat was actually
45:13
under there, one of them cats, he wouldn't try and
45:17
get under there. He would keep well away. And he
45:20
can smell. It does smell. He needs a bath. He can,
45:25
you know, he can surely he can smell if there's
45:27
a cat under there, unless a different cats under there,
45:30
one that he wants to chase. Ah, that's what I'm
45:39
going to do. I'm going to read some of the
45:40
messages out I got, which you're on my Jason Newland's

individual people for your PayPal gifts. I'll do that today.

But you know, I really do appreciate it, and I
55:18
appreciate the kind words that I've received. And I've said
55:26
it before and I'll say it again. No I do.
55:34
I said thank you. You know, I do have the
55:38
best listeners. That's what I believe. I got the best
55:46
listeners out of any podcast. I may not have the
55:49
best podcast, the best content, best quality, the best host,
55:55
but I definitely have the best listeners. So thank you, genuinely,
56:01
thank you for listening, and thank you for supporting me.
56:07
And now I'm going to go and have some ready break. Yeah,
56:14
so I'm going to go. Thank you for listening. Remember
56:17
to be kind to yourself, because you do deserve to
56:22
be happy and be gentle with yourself. You deserve to
56:29
feel safe, lots of love. Bye. Relax in a more
56:52
deep and meaningful way, maybe in a way that can
57:03
not just allow you to feel calmer now and throughout
57:14
the time we spend together here, not just relaxed at
57:23
the end of the recording when it's finished and you
57:27
can enjoy that sense of comfort and peace, but also
57:45
I think it would be nice to have those feelings
57:52
of relaxation continue, thank you for longer after the recording
58:07
has ended, so that you can still benefit from listening
58:22
to my voice, maybe in a few hours time, perhaps tomorrow,
58:36
and then by listening regularly, especially if you find like
58:44
some people do and myself as well. I sometimes I
58:48
find one particular recording that really resonates with me, and
58:59
I just listened to it over and over again every morning,
59:04
every evening. There was this recording from We're going back
59:17
to about nineteen ninety nine. It was it wasn't hypnosis,
59:22
but it was a guided visualizations. It kind of was
59:26
hypnosis really, and I managed to find it again and
59:35
it still has the same effect on me. And part
59:40
of it was the person's voice relaxed me, just felt
59:54
so peaceful, and I'd look forward to listening to her
1:00:04
in the morning and in the evening. And I knew
1:00:14
before even pressing the play button that as soon as
1:00:22
I've done that pressed the play button. This was in
1:00:27
the days of CD players pressed the play button. In fact,
1:00:41
it might have even been a tape tape recorder. I'd
1:00:45
lie down on the bed and then even without necessarily
1:00:56
listening to her word because I had to memorized. Really,
1:01:12
it was as if my body knew exactly what to do,
1:01:22
and the muscles just almost went into automatic relaxation, and
1:01:44
I remember my mind would slow down. Now. Now, I
1:01:58
was listening to this recording in the early days of
1:02:05
learning hypnosis, and long before I ever made any videos
1:02:16
or audio recordings myself, because I didn't start doing that
1:02:20
till two thousand and six, I knew, I knew how
1:02:37
helpful I found being able to just let go, to
1:02:51
have that trust in the person that I'm listening to,
1:03:03
knowing that it's going to be just as relaxing, if
1:03:12
not more so. Each time you hear my voice, you
1:03:21
may feel the same. Some people have been listening to
1:03:33
me for over a decade. Maybe not solidly, obviously not
1:03:47
twenty four hours a day, but maybe people come back.
1:03:55
Some people may be listen every day. And something that
1:04:09
I do which you may not realize by listening is
1:04:26
when I record these recordings now. For example, I also
1:04:42
am affected by the words that I say. So if
1:04:53
I set you focus on your feet, notice your feet relaxing,
1:05:07
I will be focusing on my feet. I will be
1:05:15
noticing my feet relaxing. If I said focus on your hands,
1:05:36
and maybe notice the difference between each hand, perhaps notice
1:05:45
the the air in the room, the temperature of the room.
1:05:53
On the backs of your hands. You may start to
1:06:04
notice what almost feels like a very light breeze, even
1:06:12
though there may not be any type of breeze at
1:06:16
all where you are right now. And as you become
1:06:30
aware of your hands, I'm also aware of how relaxed
1:06:45
my hands are feeling.
1:06:52
Speaker 6: Now.
1:07:07
Speaker 1: And when it comes to potentially drifting off to sleep,
1:07:14
which may be the reason you're listening, I also feel
1:07:27
drowsy when I make these recordings. I also notice my
1:07:41
mind drifting. In fact, at times I've actually fallen asleep
1:08:03
without even noticing, and then I carry on talking, and
1:08:18
it's only when I listen back to do the editing
1:08:27
I hear snoring, and I think, I don't remember snoring.
1:08:36
I remember talking. It was this snoring was a pig
1:08:42
turned up. That's why I sound like when I snare
1:08:54
and I get really into the whole experience. I don't
1:09:07
know how you feel, how relaxed you feel in your feet,
1:09:20
how relaxed you feel in your hands. I have noticed
1:09:46
more and more that the more relaxed, deeper level of
1:10:02
comfort you feel, the easier your breathing becomes. It's almost
1:10:20
like that additional muscle relaxation. So this allows you to
1:10:40
breathe easier without necessarily focusing on your breath, however, being
1:11:07
able to notice the ease in which you breathe so naturally.
1:11:51
You breathe so very easily and smoothly. Whenever I imagine
1:12:34
my breathing improving, when I've got my eyes closed, I
1:12:50
tend to visualize a beautiful field with trees and flowers
1:13:10
producing all that life giving oxygen. It feels nice to,
1:13:45
if nothing else, just taking some time away from everything,
1:14:15
enjoying that feeling of peace, serenity with a joyful heart.
1:15:13
Time seems to just drip by, so very slowly, relaxed,
1:15:45
so deeply, peaceful, completely unattached to any thoughts whatsoever in
1:16:24
this moment, completely free, noticing that your mind has slowed down.
1:17:37
Slowed down because nothing really requires your attention. You can
1:18:24
enjoy the physical sensations of allowing the stress to rip
1:18:40
out of your body, to appear out of every part
1:19:00
of your body, and being released from your brain in
1:19:25
your mind slowly but surely. The muscles sing, your legs
1:20:16
relax x really, so very deeply, relax so deeply. And
1:21:10
the feelings, the pleasant feelings in your arms and shoulders,
1:21:38
deepening each part of your body further and deeper and deeper.
1:22:17
Noticin the feelings in the back of your neck, feelings
1:22:47
in your wrists, muscles in front of your body. I
1:23:36
all say, feeling peaceful deeply, there's a sense of peace
1:24:25
spreads through your fairy core. Even when you focus on
1:25:05
your mind, your mind becomes eve and slower, even deeper,
1:26:03
relax so very slow. His stomach teas fall in your stomach,
1:27:28
You're back. Notice Notice how relaxed you'd now feel in
1:28:02
the hole of your bag. You spy from your brain
1:28:35
all the way down the middle of your back, sending
1:28:43
and receiving millions of messages every day, deep comfort, increasing
1:29:17
deeply relaxed uns relegs, spreading those signals down a spine
1:30:24
or cord into air, every part of your body, your
1:30:47
shins and your calf, muscles, your elbows, Feelings of peace
1:31:38
and tranquility spreading through your body, tips of your toes,
1:31:56
to your eyes, your fingers, all the way till you
1:32:08
lower back. Letting her rea the thinker, peace drifting mind
1:33:22
just wandering away, happy to let go, let go completely,
1:33:48
let go, so tranquil, the whole body enjoying a sense
1:35:10
listing g he more pece, enjoying the space, this space
1:37:14
of peace and safety, so firy firy, relaxed, y m
1:39:21
letting go. Maybe we can just focus on the different
1:39:46
parts of your body, just to notice you foolhead and
1:40:21
your eyes, you two so loose, noticing the sense of
1:41:26
complete freedom, absolute freedom ri rifa Pea's for energy peace
1:43:31
to breathe so much easier loose. You may have or
1:44:46
may not have noticed your mind drifting, peaceful men even
1:45:47
more deeply in the direction of total bliss for pace,
1:46:11
bliss for pace, terreft to to pace, come so calm,
1:48:14
letting go peace with mind rexed forty so relaxed, relaxed.
1:49:50
Your body feels almost.
1:49:55
Speaker 7: Invisible, So the very relaxed, I'm peaceful, So.
1:50:31
Speaker 1: Peaceful, relax liqua, and you could start to notice that
1:51:35
you are feeling more relaxed, even though I've not purposely
1:51:47
focused your mind upon that sense of physical comfort that
1:51:57
is growing within you throughout your body, and your mind
1:52:06
starts to slow down, And that could be almost in
1:52:15
recognition of I guess my speech not being particularly fast,
1:52:30
and things just generally feel calmer. Just by listening to
1:52:41
my voice, you give yourself an opportunity to take a
1:52:49
break from the day, take a break from your life
1:52:57
as it is, and to give yourself a rest, giving
1:53:06
yourself permission to take some time off and to allow
1:53:13
your body to relax and allow your mind to slow down,
1:53:24
which in turn releases the tension and he stresses that
1:53:32
you had in your body. It's almost as if the
1:53:41
parts of your body just open up, allowing the negativity
1:53:47
out and at the same time replacing that negativity with
1:53:59
positive to heathing energy, which then fills your body up
1:54:09
and your mind to also starts to appreciate those feelings
1:54:21
of increasing confidence, an almost uplifting feeling, positive healing, an
1:54:41
energy that spreads through your body like a wave of comfort,
1:54:58
and all this comes and just allowing yourself a few minutes,
1:55:10
maybe half an hour, however long you want it to be,
1:55:14
to just rest and allow your mind and your body
1:55:28
to almost reset itself to the settings of comfort and relaxation, calmness,
1:55:49
which allows more room for feelings of pleasure and happiness
1:56:03
to move around your body and into your mind, almost
1:56:12
as if your mind and your body are sinking together,
1:56:21
almost mirroring each other, with that growing positivity and calmness,
1:56:36
And it feels nice. It really does feel nice to
1:56:43
know that you are the one that has allowed yourself
1:56:53
to feel more comfort and experience more of this deep
1:57:07
relaxation spreading throughout your body. And as I focus on
1:57:24
each part of your body, you can notice that that
1:57:30
part becomes even more relaxed just by focusing on it.
1:57:46
It becomes even more calm and comfortable, just by focusing.
1:58:00
And as I move down your body, starting at your head,
1:58:09
the parts that you've already focused on will continue to
1:58:15
relax deeply, and those parts that we've not yet focused
1:58:23
on or just automatically release any remain intention in anticipation
1:58:37
of even more comfort about to come. Now, I'm going
1:58:50
to start by focusing on your forehead. Just being aware
1:58:58
the feelings of your forehead and any background sounds like
1:59:08
mister Herbert the pigeon can just allow you to feel
1:59:13
even more relaxed. Just means you're in the moment. This
1:59:23
isn't this isn't a sterile environment. This is the world.
1:59:32
I live in the countryside, so there's lots of nature
1:59:38
sounds around. So as you focus on your forehead, just
1:59:49
notice how it becomes even more relaxed as you focus
2:00:00
on my voice and that part of your body. Moving
2:00:09
down to your eyes, focusing on your eyes, noticing how
2:00:22
your eyelids feel so heavy yet so light at the
2:00:30
same time, and all the muscles around your eyes relaxing completely.
2:00:44
Moving your focus down to your mouth, your lips, your tongue,
2:00:53
your teeth, and your gumbs, the whole of your mouth relaxing,
2:01:04
calm and lease. As you focus now on your jawl
2:01:18
not just the parts of your jaw near your mouth
2:01:22
and your chin, but all the way up the size
2:01:26
of your face to your ears, the hole of your
2:01:33
jaw feeding more relaxed and calm, focusing on your neck,
2:02:03
the front of your neck and your throat relaxing and
2:02:10
loose and calm. The side of your neck, the right
2:02:21
and left side of your neck relax and loose and calm.
2:02:40
And now the back of your neck, focusing on the
2:02:47
back of your neck, letting go of any tension that
2:02:58
may have been there before, and enjoying that sense of
2:03:08
increasing comfort and release that you can experience in the
2:03:18
back of your neck. Moving down your back and moving
2:03:31
either side of your spine right from the top of
2:03:35
your back all the way down to the bottom of
2:03:41
your back, down to your lower back. And as you
2:03:58
move up and down your spine, you can feel the
2:04:06
muscles either side of your spine relaxing even more. And
2:04:21
as those muscles relax, that sense of comfort starts to
2:04:28
spread outwards from your spine into both sides of your back,
2:04:42
the top of your back, the middle and your lower back.
2:04:49
And as you scan gently and slowly up and down
2:04:57
your back, there's the muscles in the top of your
2:05:02
back relax and become looser. The muscles in the middle
2:05:12
of your back also seem to just almost divide from
2:05:19
each other, separating and almost melting, and in your lower
2:05:33
back there seems to be an extra special feeling of comfort.
2:05:49
The spreads into your hips, sit down your lower back,
2:05:56
into your hips, into the area where your cocksix are,
2:06:07
and into your buttocks, and all those muscles that spread
2:06:16
from your lower back into your hip area start to melt,
2:06:31
start to really let go, and even nowhere about to
2:06:44
focus on your shoulders, your back and your spine will
2:06:50
continue to let go, continue to rely so calmly, and
2:07:12
as you focus on your shoulders, you may notice that
2:07:17
they're already feeding, really loose, they're already feeding calm and
2:07:47
then feeding those muscles then move from your neck into
2:08:00
your shoulders. Feel so soft and gentle, so smooth and calm,
2:08:37
and the feeding in your shoulders sens to spread deep
2:08:50
into your shoulders, that sense of relaxation, not just traveling
2:09:00
deeply into your muscles, but also relaxing the bones and
2:09:17
moving all the way to underneath your arms, relaxing that
2:09:26
whole area between the tops of your shoulders and underneath
2:09:31
your arms. He Then you feel so relaxed and comfortable
2:09:50
in your shoulders, which sends that deep healing message into
2:10:10
your arms. You may feel almost as if your arms
2:10:22
are not even there, because they're so relaxed, so deeply relaxed,
2:10:41
so so calm.
2:11:02
Speaker 3: So.
2:11:08
Speaker 1: Loose, not feeling spreading all the way down your arms,
2:11:26
two elbows, including your elbows, their comforts spreads or away
2:11:55
into wrists, your four arments inderists being so heavy, yet
2:12:14
at the same time so light and gentle. Focus Now
2:12:58
on your hands, my hands, so peaceful in your hands,
2:13:54
the sense of real peace. It just seems to feel
2:14:20
so familiar when your hands relax deeply feels your things.
2:15:29
A thing is sad? This your finger tips. Moving your
2:16:34
attention to the front of your body, so comfortable. Move
2:17:04
on your focus your legs, A muscles in your thighs,
2:18:48
your knees so relaxed, a carved mussels and just shames
2:19:29
compresedly four and the feathing in your feet, sir, peaceful,
2:21:43
so calm, so peaceful, so calm, so peaceful, cyclm so
2:22:41
peace for rein peace, fall so calm, allowing that deep
2:23:14
relaxation to spread your chest, in your stomach, so letting
2:23:34
go of everything. So I'm gonna start counting down now,
2:23:55
from twenty down to one. You can imagine in a way,
2:24:04
it's like just walking down some steps and each step
2:24:10
or twenty steps, and each step represents a level of comfort.
2:24:20
Each step represents a deepening of that comfort and the
2:24:36
furvies you walk down those steps that are deeper and
2:24:42
more relaxed you feel. So starting with number twenty twenty nineteen, eighteen, seventeen,
2:27:24
sisting eight FOURT four two two well five eight nine
2:35:49
hey seven three five us four cho one And now
2:45:35
as you focus on your eyes, we're going to count
2:45:47
down from ten douts one, focusing just on your eyes,
2:46:02
your eyelids, the muscles around your eyes, your eye walls themselves,
2:46:13
our whole area that makes up your eye. And as
2:46:30
we count down from ten down to one, whilst focusing
2:46:38
on your eyes, you'll become twice is relaxed with each
2:46:54
number counting down that you may find the all you
2:47:07
want to do is just to drift off to sleep.
2:47:16
And if that's what you want, then just allow yourself
2:47:22
to do that. Now, focusing on your eyes, I'm going
2:47:37
to begin counting down from ten down to one right
2:47:47
now ten nine eight seven y five four three two one.
2:57:00
So counting down from ten to one ten nine eight
2:57:20
seven six five four three two one, And maybe that
2:57:45
was a bit too quick in order to relax. Maybe
2:57:49
it's a bit too fast for you to notice the
2:57:54
calming of your body, maybe even a little bit of
2:58:01
pressure there. Like you're counting down from ten to one.
2:58:05
Would you expect me to do man, expect me to
2:58:09
stick go floppy just because you're counting down. We could
2:58:19
try it again, but this time I go this lower.
2:58:25
This time, as you focus on the whole of your
2:58:30
body before we focus on your legs. Just notice how
2:58:38
your body does start to feel more relaxed with every
2:58:52
number that I count down ten nine, eight, seven, six, five, four, three,
3:00:06
two one, And just notice how how you feel, generally,
3:00:44
how your body feels. It's not necessarily even about yeah,
3:00:58
counting down from ten to one. It's that space that
3:01:05
you have, that space between being active physically or mentally
3:01:25
to just sitting or lying down, just being there, not
3:01:34
doing anything, not saying anything, not needing to think about anything.
3:01:42
So it opens up a space, you know, a bit
3:01:46
of a space, a gap. And the more I came
3:01:57
down from ten to one, the bigger that gap becomes.
3:02:04
So there's that gap of calmness, of comfort, relaxation. It's
3:02:17
a nice feeling, and it moves those stresses or discomforts
3:02:31
physically or emotionally, moves them away. Allows you.
3:02:46
Speaker 4: To just.
3:02:50
Speaker 1: Slow down, someone to count again from ten down to one,
3:02:57
and notice that ap widening the gap. And as it widens,
3:03:07
it's almost like the stress and attention falls into the
3:03:13
gap and gives you that distance, that space. Now ten nine, eight, seven, six, five,
3:04:34
four three two one. Now, how does your body feel now?
3:05:59
Can you know it is the Do you feel in calmer?
3:06:11
Do you feeling more relaxed? As we now focus on
3:06:39
your legs, just your legs, We're just gonna start. We're
3:07:00
focusing on your thighs. Of course, it's not the most
3:07:20
exciting thing to be doing, because I'm sure like most
3:07:28
of your body is not a lot going on right now.
3:07:40
Just focusing on the whole of your thighs, the tops
3:07:46
of your thighs, the sides of your thighs, the bottoms
3:07:52
of your thighs, your outer thighs, and you're inner thighs,
3:07:59
basically the hole of your thigh that leads into your
3:08:03
hip and it goes down to your knee joints. Now,
3:08:18
this is a big area. It's a very heavy area.
3:08:25
It's very strong, probably the strongest muscles in your body
3:08:32
or in your thighs. But I don't think we perhaps
3:08:48
give enough attention to our thighs. Perhaps we don't I
3:09:00
acknowledge how important our thighs are to our lives, how
3:09:21
much they actually do for us all through our lives.
3:09:37
And it may seem sound really weird, but I think
3:09:43
that all of our body parts, especially our thighs, needs
3:09:50
some TLC, a bit of love shown, a bit of acknowledgment.
3:10:07
I thank you gratitude for what our thighs do for us.
3:10:23
And I know this may sound a bit strange. Maybe
3:10:29
you think, why am I sure that I should be
3:10:32
out in the garden hugging a tree or something. Well,
3:10:41
it's hard to set a microphone up on a tree.
3:10:44
That's why I'm doing this indoors. Otherwise I would be
3:10:46
outside hugging a tree. Now I can't see the television
3:10:50
from the tree. If you move down to your knees
3:11:00
gat such an important part, and I think we don't
3:11:08
necessarily I'll speak for myself here, I don't necessarily appreciate
3:11:18
all that my nees do for me until I have
3:11:23
a problem with my knee. It's occasionally, if I ever
3:11:28
maybe i'll bash it or it's aching for some reason.
3:11:34
It's then that I realize how much it does. You know,
3:11:40
the benefit of being able to use my legs without
3:11:48
any kind of physical discomfort is a beautiful thing that's
3:11:55
possibly not appreciated until it's broadly removed. You know that's comfort.
3:12:08
But as you focus on your knees, regardless of how
3:12:13
your knees feel, you can have that sense of gratitude
3:12:22
and love to your knees for all that they do
3:12:24
for you. And you can still have that attention on
3:12:38
your thighs and maybe notice how your thighs feel. Maybe
3:12:44
you've noticed that they are relaxing more deeply as you
3:13:02
focus now on the bottoms of your legs, your shins
3:13:08
and your calf muscles and the bones between your knees
3:13:14
and your feet incorporate, and of course your ankles so important.
3:13:28
Anyone that's had even like the slightest sprain of an
3:13:32
ankle knows how how much we take our ankles for granted.
3:13:46
And it's kind of strange in a way when you
3:13:49
think that. You know, logically, our wrists are a lot
3:13:54
thinner than the rest of our arms, which is Okay,
3:13:59
it does. I can't see any problem with that because
3:14:03
we're just picking stuff up. But our ankles so much
3:14:09
thinner than the rest of our legs, and from a
3:14:19
physics perspective or logical even it doesn't really make sense
3:14:25
that all this weight would ultimately be resting on your
3:14:33
ankles then leading to your feet, that thin area, thin bone. Yeah,
3:14:48
it does so much great work. Supports us, supports our
3:14:54
body for a lifetime, helps us to balance, It helps
3:15:05
you to get around and be mobile. And there's the calf muscles.
3:15:19
Of course, when I was younger, I couldn't see the
3:15:27
point in calf muscles. It didn't seem to do anything. Okay,
3:15:33
if I walked around on tiptoes, then my calf muscles
3:15:36
get some work. But of course that's not true. The
3:15:40
calf muscles are being used whenever we use our legs,
3:15:50
and your shins there to protect your lower legs, shaped
3:16:03
in a way, almost as a protector for the bone,
3:16:15
leading of course to your ankles and your feet. But
3:16:27
we're not going to focus on your feet. We're just
3:16:29
going to focus on the legs. I realize that now
3:16:35
that I've mentioned your feet, it probably focuses on them anyway,
3:16:41
So maybe I should focus on your feet a little bit.
3:16:47
You can have them in your awareness the same as
3:16:52
you have your thighs in your awareness. Even though we
3:16:56
haven't been focusing on your thighs with few minutes, let
3:17:02
me focus in on your ankles. There's still that sensation
3:17:13
of comfort in your thighs, and there's that movement of
3:17:29
energy because the thighs hold lots of different sensations. Of course,
3:17:38
there's the muscles, the big straw muscles that we have
3:17:43
in our thighs. But the skin on the outside of
3:17:57
the thighs, as in the outside side of all of
3:18:01
our body, can be very sensitive, sensitive to the touch,
3:18:13
sensitive to temperature, and inside your thighs the bones, there's
3:18:27
the muscle, there's the blood, vessels, the ar trees, all
3:18:32
this stuff that's inside your thighs. And I guess sometimes
3:18:42
it'd be nice if you could actually put your fingers
3:18:45
inside your thighs and a message, so you can message
3:18:52
on the outside, of course, but to be able to
3:18:55
get deep into the muscles and to be able to
3:18:58
just message inside your thighs, message in the bones of
3:19:04
your leg, massage in or the veins, and just gently
3:19:15
healing your thighs, and you could move down message and
3:19:25
inside your knees, just message in those bones, but with
3:19:31
healing fingertips, spreading that healing energy deep into the joints
3:19:40
of your knees. Of course, there's the back of your
3:19:49
your knee, you know, the inside crease where your knee is.
3:19:55
It's a very sensitive area. Three it feels very nice
3:20:01
when you stroke it. That might be because it's an
3:20:05
area that's not really touched very often. It's almost like
3:20:11
a hidden part, that crease in your legs. It's almost
3:20:19
it's like a part that has a sensitivity, which is
3:20:24
a little bit different. Of course, it's protected by your legs.
3:20:42
So you can imagine putting your fingers into that crease
3:20:48
in your legs, that fold in between your legs. You
3:20:57
can just message with your fingertips. Letting your fingertips going inside,
3:21:04
massage in the muscle tissue. You can cause field the
3:21:14
bones of your knees, healing through your fingertips. And then
3:21:27
as you go down to your calf muscles. Now that's
3:21:32
the part I'd like to be able to really put
3:21:36
my fingertips deep inside my calf muscles massage in every
3:21:45
single tissue of that muscle, healing every part, and then
3:21:57
doing the same for my shins, massage in and gently
3:22:05
stroking the bones, gently stroking them, healing in a loving way,
3:22:13
because they deserve to be treated as the precious bones
3:22:19
that they are. Because our legs are so precious as
3:22:24
in all the other parts of our body, and more
3:22:29
precious than any jure on the planet. When you start
3:22:43
to think about your legs in this way, it can
3:22:55
change your perspective. It might sound a bit a bit
3:23:05
silly to start with the idea of having love for
3:23:11
your legs, showing appreciation for your thighs, wanting to be
3:23:20
able to put your hands in your thighs and massage
3:23:27
the muscles and the bones, and to get your fingers
3:23:33
deep in there, releasing all tension, just to show how
3:23:43
much you care about your legs, how much you care
3:23:51
for what your legs do for you regularly, your knees,
3:23:59
your ankles, the strength of your ankles, considering how thin
3:24:14
they are compared to the rest of your legs, especially
3:24:17
your thighs. Yeah, they're so strong, so flexible, absolutely amazing things.
3:24:33
Your ankles are truly a gift because of what they
3:24:43
do for you. Supporting all that weight. Regardless of how
3:24:55
what weight you are, even if you only ate stone,
3:25:01
it's still a lot of weight for these little ankles.
3:25:08
Now I'm a lot heavier than each snow double down,
3:25:16
yet my ankles support my body all the time. Ortho.
3:25:25
They do give off a sigh of relief when I
3:25:28
sit down, as you have, my whole legs do. My
3:25:37
feet feet also go and my toes clap. I'm so happy.
3:26:04
Your legs really are amazing. And I know that about
3:26:14
talking about your legs is probably possibly among the most
3:26:20
most boring things you've ever heard anyone say. Possibly they're
3:26:28
boring or not. Everything I said is true. Your legs
3:26:36
are amazing. Your legs deserve not just respect, They deserve
3:26:56
to relax deeply. They deserve to take some time out
3:27:09
of the day to just let go completely. Your legs
3:27:38
really can relax. And because the legs are so such
3:27:51
a most, you know, very important part of your body.
3:27:57
When you relax your legs, the rest of your body
3:28:00
also naturally follows in that journey of comfort. I can
3:28:19
feel it in my hips. My hips feel really loose,
3:28:27
and also in my lower back as well. My lower
3:28:31
back really feels it feels stretched, even though I'm just
3:28:37
sitting in a chair and there's no stretching as far
3:28:43
as I'm aware that I'm doing. It's almost as if
3:28:47
the muscles are just relaxed so much that there is
3:28:51
a natural stretch as the tension has reduced a lot.
3:29:15
And I'm now going to count down from ten down
3:29:19
to one, and you can continue to fill wonderfully relaxed
3:29:34
ten nine eight, seven, six, five four three two.
3:30:10
Speaker 4: One.
3:30:16
Speaker 1: Relax. So I'm just going to count down from five
3:30:28
down to one, and as a countdown, if you just
3:30:33
focus on the numbers, just the numbers counting down, and
3:30:41
notice how you feel in this moment as you hear
3:30:50
the numbers counting down, knowing that those numbers counting down
3:30:58
represent you feeling calmer, not just in your body, but
3:31:08
also relaxing your mind. I just notice how you feel.
3:31:17
There's nothing to do, there's nothing to say, there's nothing
3:31:23
to think about, starting with number five, four three two one.
3:32:15
And as you notice the gradual letting go the tension
3:32:28
in your body, you may also begin to notice and
3:32:35
be aware of how your mind is starting to slow down.
3:32:47
This is just a natural thing that happens. It's not
3:32:53
really a special procedure. It's just natural because as your
3:33:00
body relaxes, your mind also starts to relax, and the
3:33:06
more your mind relaxes, the more your body relaxes. It's
3:33:10
just a continuous circle of relaxation. And there is that
3:33:21
calmness that comes from relative quietness. You know, even even
3:33:29
if there's background sounds, either your side or mine, it's
3:33:36
still going to be quite calm. You know, you haven't
3:33:42
got the television on, there's no music in the background,
3:33:47
unless you're listening to the recording with music. Of course,
3:33:54
you're very likely not going to be sitting in a
3:33:57
room with other people. Of course you might be, but
3:34:01
generally it's more ideal if you can do this on
3:34:04
your own, so no distractions, and when you stop thinking
3:34:16
about stuff, relaxation automatically rises. A sense of comfort starts
3:34:33
to grow, and without trying to build it up into
3:34:42
something fantastical or something magical, this is just a natural process,
3:34:56
something that's easy to accomplish. In fact, it's almost you know,
3:35:07
the sense of relaxing completely happens really when you put
3:35:14
no effort into it. It's not something that you can
3:35:18
really force. It's something that happens naturally, and part of
3:35:30
the process of this recording and others is simply two
3:35:42
allow you to take advantage of this space. This time,
3:35:55
it's just let go, to just be here, to be
3:36:07
in tune with how you feel, yet with the intention
3:36:23
of wanting to relax deeply and maybe even to fall asleep,
3:36:35
depending on what it is that you wish for yourself
3:36:42
in this moment. As we know, relaxing is the majority
3:36:58
of the process fallen asleep. The actual falling asleep part
3:37:03
is a tiny bit at the end. The deeper relaxed
3:37:12
you become, the easier you find yourself drifting. You can also,
3:37:34
if you choose stay focused on my voice and really
3:37:45
enjoy the process, gradually relaxing each muscle in your body
3:38:20
effortlessly and just observing the sensation of letting go completely.
3:38:55
This time, I'm going to count from six down to one,
3:39:04
and you can notice your mind calming down more with
3:39:13
each number that you hear me say, naturally, feeling calm.
3:39:27
Speaker 5: And slow.
3:39:32
Speaker 1: And peaceful sex five, four, three, one, being aware of
3:42:31
all your mind to slow right down, sinking deeply into relaxation.
3:43:01
And as you focus on your mind, you may notice
3:43:08
that there are some thoughts still there, maybe some stubborn
3:43:17
thoughts that for some reason perhaps need your attention. That's
3:43:33
what you can do is send love to those thoughts.
3:43:45
Sprinkle those thoughts with love, like all petals from a flower.
3:43:57
Just sprinkle it over them, petals filled with love towards
3:44:04
those thoughts, to let those thoughts know that you're not
3:44:11
abandoned in them. You just need them. You require them
3:44:20
to just calm down, slow down, quiet down for now.
3:44:40
So as you focus on those remaining thoughts. As we
3:44:45
count down this time from seven down to one, with
3:44:50
each number, just imagine sprinkling those flower petals of love, kindness,
3:45:06
gratitude over those thoughts, which will allow them to just
3:45:19
melt away and relax deeply. With every number, those thoughts
3:45:34
will become more and more relaxed, starting with number seven, six, five, four,
3:47:09
three two one. Yeah, And as you now notice how
3:48:25
relaxed you're feeling in your body, we're going to focus
3:48:49
on your hands, because the more relaxed your hands are,
3:49:01
the more relaxed your body and mind are. And there's
3:49:22
you focus on your hands and your fingers. There's nothing
3:49:33
needed to be done. There's no clenching of fists or
3:49:38
tents in the fingers or anything like that. It's just
3:49:49
noticing and focusing on your hands, noticing how they feel.
3:50:18
Because the more relaxed your hands feel, the calmer your
3:50:29
mind feels, and the more comfort you feel throughout your body,
3:50:46
and you may have already taste you mind is starting
3:51:20
to dress f shin just on your hands and fingers,
3:51:47
allowing them to experience a real deepening of that relaxation
3:52:03
in your hands and fingers, more and more relaxed. With
3:52:21
each number from eight down to one, you can almost
3:52:41
feel that healing and relaxing energy spreading into your hands
3:52:52
and fingers, becoming eye more relaxing with each number you hear,
3:53:17
going down eight down to one, drifting, drifting again starting
3:53:38
with number eight, seven, six, five, four.
3:56:18
Speaker 6: Three foo.
3:57:38
Speaker 1: Just being here now, nothing to think about, nothing to do,
3:57:49
nothing to say, and everything just feels calmer. And this
3:58:03
is your natural state of being. This is how you
3:58:11
just normally feel when you take away all that other
3:58:18
stuff that we add, you know, things like stress and
3:58:25
worrying and overthinking and anxiety, tension, just generally thinking about stuff.
3:58:44
You take that away, which is what we do.
3:58:48
Speaker 4: What we do.
3:58:48
Speaker 1: Now you're left with a real sense of peacefulness, which
3:59:06
comes to you very quickly, because ultimately it's just a feeling,
3:59:20
a feeling of comfort. It's almost as if you've gone
3:59:28
inside yourself and you've found a special place where everything
3:59:40
is peaceful, a place where you can feel relaxed and
3:59:48
your natural sense of comfort, a place where you can
3:59:57
be you, where you can accept yourself for who you are,
4:00:09
a place where you're not trying to please anybody else ever,
4:00:20
a place where you can actually not just love yourself,
4:00:29
but in some ways more importantly, you can like yourself
4:00:37
appreciate who you are. That sense of gratitude is in
4:00:54
the air all around you. That's also a place where
4:01:05
you can actually feel the healing energy soaking into your body.
4:01:22
Healing energy soaking into your body, and that healing energy
4:01:34
spreads through your veins, traveling to each and every single
4:01:45
part of your body, and you start to realize that
4:01:55
actually that healing energy, it's not just entered into your brain,
4:02:05
it's become part of your brain, and that spinal fluid
4:02:18
is now mixed with healing energy, not just allowing you
4:02:29
to feel so much more relaxed and healthy in this moment,
4:02:41
but also you start to realize that actually, what's happening
4:02:51
now with that healing, relaxing energy spreading through your body,
4:03:01
it's actually changing your life. It's actually changing the way
4:03:12
you're going to feel not just now, but tomorrow and
4:03:19
the next day. As your health improves, not just your
4:03:28
physical health, but your mental health. Things that used to
4:03:36
bother you in the past, for some reason, no longer
4:03:43
have the effect that they used to because something has
4:03:50
changed deep within you. Maybe things things they used to
4:04:03
cause you to feel anger no longer have that power
4:04:15
to control you the way they seem to be able
4:04:21
to before. As you realize that you're the one who
4:04:32
decides what affects you, you're the one who decides to
4:04:46
feel relaxed and calm when you choose to enjoy noticing
4:05:00
these natural developments of healing continuing to grow and improve
4:05:15
your life day by day, including of course, your ability
4:05:28
to relax so much easier and sleeping is the most
4:05:44
natural thing in the world to you, because falling asleep
4:05:55
is something that you've done so many times in your life,
4:06:06
and you know that you were born, as we all were,
4:06:11
with the ability to fall asleep naturally. We were born
4:06:23
with that ability to just drift off into a deep,
4:06:34
healing sleep. Even when we're kids, sometimes will fall asleep
4:06:46
when we don't even want to try to tell us
4:06:50
stay awake. Maybe it's a birthday in the morning, or
4:06:55
it's Christmas or holiday or something we look forward to.
4:07:00
We don't want to go to sleep. But the more
4:07:04
we want to stay awake, the more we just start
4:07:09
to drift. And the more you fight drifting, the more
4:07:17
you try to stop yourself and drift in asleep, the
4:07:22
deeper and stronger that drifting becomes. Because we're born not
4:07:35
just with the need to relax deeply and to naturally
4:07:41
fall asleep, but it's our birthright, it's part of our DNA.
4:07:58
And sometimes as we get older in life, perhaps at
4:08:03
times we have forgotten that relaxing completely is not only
4:08:18
a wonderfully pleasant experience, it's also really easy. It's very,
4:08:42
very easy to let go, because that's all it is.
4:08:48
It's just deciding to let go. And when you press
4:09:03
the play button on my recordings, you have given permission
4:09:14
for my voice to relax you. When you press that
4:09:22
play button, you've given me permission for my words to
4:09:31
affect you in a positive, only a positive way. Opening
4:09:46
up your mind to useful and healing suggestions that can
4:10:10
have such an amazing effect on how you feel right now,
4:10:26
as well as those changes that continue long after the
4:10:36
recording ends, those changes within you that continue to flourish
4:10:48
and grow, transforming your life in positive, beautiful way, allowing
4:11:07
you to move forward in your life in the direction
4:11:13
that you choose for yourself. And this feeling, this feeling
4:11:31
that you can experience of safety, comfort, calmness, just feels
4:11:47
so nice. It's such a healthy place to be, and
4:12:08
that positivity grows within you each and every day. Moving forward,
4:12:29
you're going to find that you're more relaxed physically and
4:12:41
in your mind is more relaxed. And it's not that
4:12:49
you're thinking slower, it's just that your mind will be
4:12:55
less clogged up with unnecessary sorry negativity, because from now on,
4:13:08
your mind rejects negativity. From now on, you're going to
4:13:17
start noticing when negativity arises and you can just say stop, stop,
4:13:37
and that negativity will turn around and leave you alone.
4:13:52
Stop and that negativity would disappear. And as you notice
4:14:12
that you feel way more relaxed than you probably expected,
4:14:26
you can now congratulate yourself because you're the person that
4:14:36
has done this. You are the one that has opened
4:14:42
your mind up to the simple facts that you can
4:14:50
feel more relaxed in your body and in your mind.
4:15:01
You've opened your mind up to the birthright of being
4:15:07
able to just fall asleep easily when you choose. And
4:15:24
that's a nice feeling. Don't you think it feels nice?
4:15:31
Doesn't it? To feel calm? All that healing energy is
4:15:41
spreading through your body and your mind to spend time
4:15:52
in a special place where negativity can no longer enter.
4:16:09
Negativity is banned, it's barred, it's not allowed Entryue doesn't
4:16:18
it doesn't. This doesn't deserve to be here, doesn't belong here.
4:16:27
Negativity has no place in your life, which makes room
4:16:42
for more comfort, more heathing, more relaxation, more peace. If
4:17:13
it feels nice, doesn't it? Just the let go with everything.
4:17:38
I'm gonna count down now from twenty down to one.
4:17:46
You can continue to relax. If you choose, you can
4:17:56
drift to sleep. With every number you hear me say,
4:18:10
you can fill twice as relaxed, or if you choose,
4:18:18
you can feel twice a sleepy now twenty nineteen, eighteen sevenighteen, sixteen, fifteen, fourteen, thirteen, twelve, eleven,
4:19:59
T nine eight seven, six five four. This is your
4:21:23
time to just take a break, your time to relax,
4:21:41
to allow your mind to slow down, to give yourself
4:21:53
permission to take upbreak from everything. And you, you're the
4:22:12
only person that can make that decision. You're the only
4:22:19
person that can actually tell your mind to just relax,
4:22:35
to just take some time off so that you can
4:22:51
focus on your body, getting in touch with how you
4:22:57
feel physically. And in the process of this body scan,
4:23:14
where you focus on different parts of your body, those
4:23:25
parts that you focus on and observe. Even though you're
4:23:32
not purposely requesting for those parts of your body to relax,
4:23:43
it's kind of expected. You expect when you listen to
4:23:50
my voice to feel more relaxed naturally, because when you're
4:24:03
listening to me, your attention is focused on my words,
4:24:18
and as my words guide you to focus on those
4:24:29
parts of your body, your focus increases, which actually calms
4:24:47
your mind. And when your mind calms down, your body relaxes.
4:25:15
And when your body calms down, your mind relaxes. And
4:25:37
even though we've not really started the focus on your body,
4:25:48
you can already feel that healing energy spreading through your body,
4:26:04
pushing out stress and tension.
4:26:15
Speaker 5: Healing.
4:26:17
Speaker 1: All the parts of your body, including your skin, your bones,
4:26:25
your blood, all of your organs inside your body, all
4:26:32
of the muscles, all of the fat, all of everything,
4:26:40
every hair on your body is filled with that healing energy.
4:26:54
And when your brain fills with that healing energy, the
4:27:10
feeling of comfort and relaxation increases deeply, increases in a
4:27:35
way that your mind starts to feel perhaps bit drowsy
4:27:55
because it's not needed, and it may start to drift
4:28:14
if that's what's needed. So if you're listening to this
4:28:23
and what you need is deep relaxation, that's what you'll get.
4:28:29
If what you need is to fall asleep naturally and
4:28:37
easily as your mind drifts, that's also what will happen.
4:28:51
Because by pressing that play button on the podcast and
4:28:59
listening to me, you give permission for your body and
4:29:05
your mind. In fact, you give the command to your
4:29:17
body and your mind to relax deeply and to drift
4:29:29
off to sleep if that's what you want or need.
4:29:45
And as I focus on the different parts of your body,
4:29:56
you may start to just drift, and then you come
4:30:05
back again and you hear me talking, and I'm focusing
4:30:10
on a different part of your body, and you may
4:30:21
find yourself drifting, but you don't realize you're drifting until
4:30:30
you stop drifting and you're alert again to my voice.
4:30:38
Focusing on a different part of your body starts to
4:30:44
relax even deeper, because that drifting is basically you already
4:30:57
in the sleep zone. And the more you drift, the longer
4:31:08
you drift, and the longer you drift, eventually that drifting
4:31:18
continues into sleep, and that's the last you remember until
4:31:30
you wake up in your own time, when you experience
4:31:39
the right amount of sleep for you, because when you
4:31:46
do and if you do fall asleep, it's extremely pleasant,
4:31:58
so relaxing mhm, so deep healing sleep. I'm going It
4:32:18
feels so nice to relax into your own body and
4:32:26
mind as you feel that heathing energy is spreading through it, relaxing.
4:32:40
Use so deeply, relaxing, use so so deeply. We start
4:33:02
to focus on your eyes, moving down to your jaw,
4:33:26
down to your neck, your shoulders, palms, hands, thus your
4:34:08
chest and stomach, your back, your spine, your hips, your legs,
4:34:56
your feet, your toes, and feeding eatings, spreading and growing
4:35:33
inside your body feeling you up. Now, let's focus again
4:35:48
on parts of your body. Focusing this time on your forehead.
4:36:03
Now on your mouth, your lips, your tongue, the whole
4:36:12
of your mouth. Focus in on your fingers. Maybe you
4:36:34
could move your fingers a little bit. You can focus
4:36:40
on each one individually, both hands. And even though you
4:36:54
focus on both of your hands now they almost them
4:37:00
to just melt into one. Where is your right hand,
4:37:08
start in your left hand end, almost as if just
4:37:18
mixed together. Now, focusing on your knees, just noticing how
4:37:35
your knees feel. Now, focusing on your elbows, focusing on
4:37:59
both of your elbows. Just observing the feeling of your elbows.
4:38:38
Now focusing observing the back of your neck, feeding that
4:38:56
energy back of your neck, absurd your ankles, being aware
4:39:50
of physical sensations in your ankles. Let you see no
4:41:01
your toes on both of your feet, being aware how
4:41:18
you toa yeah right now ninety Then how you entire
4:42:12
body feels. Noticing how your mind feels. Now letting go,
4:43:07
letting go, letting go everything, letting go, letting go, letting
4:43:50
go everything you sing. I'm going to start now, and
4:44:16
I would like you just first of all, just to
4:44:18
see yourself lying down on that message table, lying on
4:44:26
your front. Your head is supported, your arms are supported,
4:44:36
and you feel comfortable and breathing. It's really easy, and
4:44:42
you feel you feel confident in how you look as well.
4:44:49
So there's none of that issue of body problems or shyness,
4:44:54
because I'm a professional and this is a therapy session,
4:45:03
so none of that stuff matters whatsoever. This is about you.
4:45:14
This is about how you feel and how you can
4:45:21
enjoy that sense of comfort and relaxation that comes from
4:45:28
letting go and allowing my hands and my fingers to
4:45:34
relax you by a message your body. So I want
4:45:46
to start off just by placing my hands on the
4:45:51
back of your head, just gently, just you can feel
4:45:56
what my hands feel like really on you. So you
4:46:04
can maybe feel the warmth of my hands on the
4:46:07
back of your head. With my hands to the side
4:46:12
of your head, not pressing, but just holding there very gently,
4:46:20
maybe over your ears, and a little bit on your face,
4:46:24
just so you can feel my hands so you can
4:46:30
become accustomed to them. And now put my hands on
4:46:43
the back of your head again and gently let them
4:46:47
slide down onto the back of your neck. You can
4:47:00
feel my hands gently stroking the back of your neck
4:47:10
to start with, just so you can get used to
4:47:17
the feeling of my hands on your skin, get accustomed
4:47:22
to realize that you're safe and it's all good, it's
4:47:30
all fine, and I'm going to start gently messaging the
4:47:41
muscles in the back of your neck with both hands. Now,
4:47:57
this is a very trusting situation, really, because our necks
4:48:04
are so fragile and to have someone have their hands
4:48:09
around your neck in that way can sometimes be problematic
4:48:14
for people, which is why massages are quite good, because
4:48:19
it allows you to relax and to get in touch
4:48:28
with trust, to feel peaceful and calm. There's a massage
4:48:46
the sides of your neck, gently moving from the bottom
4:48:54
of your neck. It would be sort of near where
4:48:58
your shoulders start, I guess, all the way up to
4:49:03
your jaw, your ears, kind of area that side of
4:49:09
your neck. Of course, it's a lot longer than the
4:49:14
front of your neck. The message in the back of
4:49:30
your neck, especially that area where perhaps we hold tension,
4:49:43
and as that area's message, you can actually feel a
4:49:48
sense of release in the back of your neck and
4:49:56
maybe you can breathe it out as well. Notice how
4:50:01
it feels, Notice how you feel. Then moving down to
4:50:14
that area between your neck and your shoulders, that muscle area,
4:50:23
starting to message that area on both sides. I mean,
4:50:30
this would be the area that a lot of people
4:50:33
would message if they were going to give you like
4:50:36
a shoulder message. Even that's not technically the shoulders, but
4:50:42
it's all the muscles that lead to the shoulders from
4:50:46
the neck and a game that can hold tension and stress,
4:50:54
and when massaged sometimes a nice deep message is useful,
4:51:02
and you decide how deep that message is, and just
4:51:17
allow my knuckles just to dig in to get to
4:51:24
those muscles and to really relaxed all the time being
4:51:35
firm yet gentle with you and just stroking down the
4:51:52
area to your actual shoulders, moving into the muscles of
4:52:01
your shoulders and maybe initially just pulling up the shoulders
4:52:12
a little bit of the table, just to give you
4:52:16
a little bit of a stretch, but very gently, and
4:52:26
you've got the muscles at the front of your shoulders,
4:52:29
the sides and the back. Again, this is a path
4:52:40
that can really take quite a bit of pressure, quite
4:52:46
a bit of needing if if you wish to really
4:52:56
release the tension to really get into those muscles and
4:53:05
you can let your fingers in there. I can feel
4:53:08
really nice. Sometimes it's just being stroked gently or being
4:53:16
massaged quite strongly. It can all be beneficial to the
4:53:26
relaxation of the muscles in your shoulders. Now to move
4:53:44
down your arms, we do one arm at a time,
4:53:55
starting with your right arm. Well I do is I
4:54:04
just lift your arm up, just hold it to the
4:54:08
side of you, the words still be attached, and I
4:54:16
just message the tops of your arms all the way
4:54:31
down to your forearms, into your wrists, gently massaging that parts,
4:54:58
the softer part which is the under part of the arm,
4:55:05
which leads to the crease in your elbow. The inside.
4:55:10
It's much more sensitive skin. Sometimes just having that stroked
4:55:27
and I feel really nice, pleasurable and relaxing. Now moving
4:55:43
down to your right hand, just holding your hand with
4:55:57
both of my hands, just pressing gently on the back
4:56:06
of your hand and stretching your fingers ever so lightly,
4:56:17
at the same time pressing down and messaging each finger,
4:56:32
and then starting to massage the palms of the hand.
4:56:43
Just turning the hand gently, stretching it gently, and actually
4:56:54
having your hand held can really be an emotional experience.
4:57:01
Sometimes even if it is a stranger. So when you
4:57:07
don't know very well, like a massage person or a therapist,
4:57:13
maybe because it's intimate and you can feel nice, you
4:57:28
can feel safe. And as I put that right arm
4:57:39
back down where it was, to do the same with
4:57:47
your left arm, exactly the same, massage in the muscles
4:58:00
and your arm all the way down. Do you rest
4:58:08
stroking the inside of your arm, just being gentle or
4:58:18
as firm as you require, and then massaging your left hand,
4:58:38
stretching the fingers, gently, massaging the palm of your left hand.
4:59:00
H you feel so so relaxing, so comforting, and just
4:59:29
rest your left arm back down. Start to message your back,
4:59:44
the biggest part of your body, starting at the top,
4:59:55
starting again where we already be have been, the area
4:59:59
at the top in between his shoulders, near your neck.
5:00:05
Going back the massage in that area again, but this
5:00:10
time moving downwards, taking a downward stroke to the middle
5:00:23
of your back, working from the outside inwards. It's a
5:00:31
massage in the your back, but the outsides of your back,
5:00:43
the parts where your arms would maybe rest against, almost
5:00:59
the part that connects your front to your back. Just
5:01:12
messaging down firmly but gently, as firm as you want,
5:01:23
moving down and moving across a little bit, and moving
5:01:28
all the way down again, be very gentle yet firm
5:01:34
as you choose. Eventually you get to the spine. We
5:01:46
can massage the muscles and either side of your spine
5:01:51
from the top of your neck all the way down
5:01:57
to your lower back. We can do that a few times.
5:02:09
Sometimes people use the knuckle or the two fingers and
5:02:17
just go your side of the spine and almost just
5:02:23
push down, go all the way down to the bottom
5:02:26
of the spine, each time releasing tension and opening up
5:02:35
the body, stretching your body so that you feel more
5:02:44
relaxed but at the same time rejuvenated. And now I'm
5:03:02
going to move to one side, to your right side,
5:03:10
and from the bottom of your ribs to your pelvis,
5:03:16
I'm going to massage that area of your back. I'll
5:03:22
stretch over the other side and i will pull the
5:03:25
muscles gently and massage and push from one end that
5:03:32
side or right to my side in the middle of
5:03:37
fact to where your spine is, massaging that side of
5:03:43
your spine the opposite side to where I'm standing. It's
5:03:50
almost like kneading bread. There's that big area which is firm,
5:03:58
yet it's there to message potentially one of the most
5:04:08
important places to actually have a message, because you really
5:04:15
feel it. You really feel the release and the pleasure
5:04:22
of having your lower back massaged. It releases so much
5:04:30
from your body that's not useful starting a healing process
5:04:40
which will continue long after this recording is over. The
5:04:53
message in this part of your body not only feels
5:04:56
really good for you, that's actually un to do because
5:05:02
it is, as I said, like kneading bread, it's a
5:05:07
part that you can really get hold of and really
5:05:12
massage deeply. If that's your choice, then I'm going to
5:05:25
move over to the other side of your body and
5:05:28
do the same with the opposite heart of your lawer back.
5:05:39
Kneading and messaging from your sides all the way to
5:05:48
the middle of your back where your spine is pressing
5:05:56
and kneading firm and gentle at the same time. It
5:06:07
feels so releasing. This mixture of pleasure, comfort, release, calmness,
5:06:19
relaxation or mixed together. Plus there's that feeling from your
5:06:31
stomach as it's being stretched. Even though you're in your
5:06:36
stomach now, you can feel it being stretched because that
5:06:41
whole area is connected to your stomach. Now we're going
5:06:52
to move or move further up to your top of
5:06:57
your body, and I we do the same this time,
5:07:03
starting with your upper back. Put my hands forward over
5:07:11
and massive massage in that area up to your spine,
5:07:18
from the side of your body up to your spine.
5:07:23
So some of that massage area, the muscle tissue or
5:07:29
whatever fatty tissue even will be possibly from your chest.
5:07:35
There's all connected chest and the back connect together. I'm
5:07:42
going to be massaging and just pulling some of that
5:07:46
skin from your side up and massaging that area of
5:07:57
your upper back all the way to your spine. And
5:08:05
then I'll move down a bit and I'll continue with
5:08:08
the middle of your back doing exactly the same thing
5:08:15
as gentle or as deep as you choose. Now, I'll
5:08:28
move or the other side again and do the exact
5:08:33
same thing with the top of your back on the
5:08:36
other side, from pretty much underneath your arm area really
5:08:51
to your spine, and then continue in that all the
5:09:01
way down, including the lower your middle of your back.
5:09:20
I'm gonna go to your thighs, the backs of your thighs,
5:09:27
and the sides of your thighs, starting with your right
5:09:35
leg Massage in the back and the sides of your
5:09:44
thighs gently and firmly. There's a lot of muscles there.
5:09:53
It's an area that can be very tense at times
5:09:57
and maybe needs a little bit more pressure than the
5:10:00
rest of the body that's up to you. You can
5:10:08
gently stroke the back of your legs where you know,
5:10:15
opposite your knee joint or underneath your knee joint, very sensitive,
5:10:22
gentle area. And then working down to your calf muscles.
5:10:37
Massage in your calf muscles thoroughly and deeply, if you choose,
5:10:47
using both hands and fingers, digging deep to your ankles,
5:11:06
in the back of your back of your ankles, just
5:11:12
gently massage in that area, maybe lifting the leg and
5:11:25
stretching in a little bit. Moving to the right foot,
5:11:47
massage in the bottom of your feet and the size
5:11:57
of your fate gently but firm enough so they don't tickle,
5:12:14
and just allow the pleasure that you get from having
5:12:20
your feet message to just overtake you as I continue
5:12:29
to message your feet, the bottoms of your feet, the
5:12:35
sides your arches, your heel. You can put a lot
5:12:44
of pressure into your heel and it feels amazing. Yet
5:12:50
the arches need to be a bit more gentle, stretching
5:12:58
your toes gently, a massage in the bottoms of your
5:13:05
toes with my fingers, each one individually. Moving over to
5:13:21
the left leg to do exactly the same thing, starting
5:13:30
at the top of the thighs. Work in the back
5:13:35
of the thighs and the sides, massaging deeply and gently
5:13:43
a whole area, working all the way down. And this
5:13:57
is an area that maybe you could like to spend
5:14:03
more time relaxing and messaging. So perhaps if you wanted,
5:14:12
like a bigger future recording wants, spend more time on
5:14:17
one particular area. As you moved down to your calf muscles,
5:14:35
massage your calf muscles firmly and gently, moving down your
5:14:51
aincor into your feet, Massage in the backs of your feet,
5:15:00
the bottoms of your feet, stretching your toes and message
5:15:09
in each tone individually. And then feeling of pleasure and
5:15:17
release that you experience when your having your feet messaged
5:15:24
feels really good. Now, if you turn over in your mind,
5:15:44
laying on your back, I'm just going to start again
5:15:57
for your neck area and your shoulders, just to get
5:16:12
back in touch with that area. And as you move up,
5:16:29
I can clean my hands, make them more fresh, because
5:16:34
now I'm gonna message your face gently, starting off with
5:16:44
your forehead. Your eyes are closed, and I can just
5:16:55
stretch your eyes a little bit, push up on your eyebrows,
5:17:08
and just massaging around your scalp, massaging down your cheeks,
5:17:20
around your ears, into your chaw, gently the side of
5:17:33
your neck chin mhmm, and just moving down from your
5:17:55
neck down to your chest, starting by message in the
5:18:03
very top of your chest where the collar bone is.
5:18:12
Give a side of the collarbone, and then just massage
5:18:24
in the hole of the chest, moving the chest around,
5:18:45
because it's quite a large area. You can move from
5:18:50
one side to the next, moving my hands underneath pretty
5:19:01
much where your arms are, stretching up, stretching some of
5:19:10
the muscles of your back in the process, moving up
5:19:20
over your chest and then moving down again, and then
5:19:39
allowing my hands they just message gently and slide down
5:19:47
towards your stomach, starting in the middle of your chest,
5:19:55
and then gradually my hands moving apart and massaging and
5:20:02
sliding at the same time, moving down to just below
5:20:12
your rib cage, moving down, then massaging up again, giving
5:20:30
your chest all the attention that it needs to feel
5:20:38
completely relaxed, remembering that I'm also going to be focusing
5:20:51
on your sides as well, an area that really doesn't
5:20:57
get much attention but feels really good when it's massaged.
5:21:09
Just stroking my hands down the sides of your body,
5:21:17
just below your arms, all the way down to your hips.
5:21:30
Now moving to your stomach area, I'm going to stand
5:21:36
one side of you like I did when I did
5:21:38
your lower back. I'm gonna do a similar process of
5:21:45
just stretching the muscles from your side, gently massaging one
5:22:00
side to the next, move in the whole area from
5:22:09
below your ribs all the way down to below your
5:22:12
belly button, and then move around to the other side
5:22:22
of you and repeat that process of relaxing, deeply, calmly,
5:22:41
feel loose, You feel free. And it's something about having
5:22:49
your stomach message that's different from any other part because
5:22:57
we do have a tendency of holding a different kind
5:23:02
of stress in her stomach that we may not be
5:23:06
aware of. As a Now massage your stomach in front
5:23:17
of your stomach, making circles around your belly button, thing
5:23:30
going the other way around. There's a gentleness and a
5:23:40
freedom that comes from feeling how you're feeling as a Now,
5:23:52
move down the tops of your thighs the muscles, message them,
5:24:01
and I can do this two legs at the same time,
5:24:07
pressing down, massaging deeply those muscles in your thighs at
5:24:16
front of your thighs, and moving down to your knees,
5:24:26
gently massaging your knees, sliding down your shins, putting pressure
5:24:39
on either side of your shin gently, softly but firmly,
5:24:51
moving down to your ankles, stroking the tops of your feet,
5:25:07
and then with each foot in each hand, just gently
5:25:12
messaging the whole of the foot, the top, the bottom,
5:25:21
your heel, your ankle, your toes, messaging every part of
5:25:30
your feet. Feels so good, Just to let go and
5:25:40
enjoy the process. Enjoy feeling so deeply relaxed, so much comfort,
5:26:05
and so many feelings that come just from touching your skin.
5:26:22
And you can just lie there for as long as
5:26:28
you choose, enjoying the feeling of deep comfort from being
5:26:41
massaged by me. Enjoy feeling deeply right. And all we're
5:27:13
gonna do is blow out some candles. In your mind,
5:27:34
there are going to be a hundred candles, and you're
5:27:44
going to blow each one out. Individually, one by one,
5:27:53
starting at one hundred. As I count down all the
5:28:03
way down to one, and each time I say a number,
5:28:16
you can imagine that candle in front of you, and
5:28:23
I'd like you to actually physically gently blow that candle out,
5:28:39
just so it's not big blows, just a gentle, and
5:28:51
that candle will extinguish. And then I'll say the next
5:29:01
number as we move down, and you can just blow
5:29:12
that one out as well. And as we move down
5:29:21
the numbers, you'll find yourself feeling more and more relaxed.
5:29:35
If you need to sleep, you'll also find yourself becoming
5:29:43
incredibly tired and sleepy. In fact, you may struggle to
5:29:57
blow out all one hundred of these candles as you
5:30:11
feel more and more deeply relaxed, more and more deeply tired,
5:30:42
and the further you go down, the more your mind
5:30:52
starts to drift. You may find that you stop listening
5:31:04
to me after a while. And even though there maybe
5:31:18
background sounds where you are, you'll be aware of those
5:31:26
sounds at the moment, be may start to just not
5:31:45
even notice them at all because they're unimportant. Where I am,
5:32:07
I've got the sounds of the birds, there's horrors, the
5:32:12
pigeon who likes to say hello sometimes, and there's the
5:32:20
odd plane that goes by, maybe traffic and trains in
5:32:31
the distance, but none of that seems important whatsoever. More
5:32:49
candles you blow out, the less important anything.
5:32:57
Speaker 8: Is.
5:33:02
Speaker 1: More candles you blow out, the further you seem to
5:33:13
move away from sounds and from general date days. Stuff
5:33:33
seems to just move away on its own. You feel
5:33:48
more calmer with every candle you blow out, Yeah, guiding
5:34:08
you the next number, do you hear me say? And
5:34:24
then you blow that candle out to h So easy,
5:34:41
so simple. We're gonna start by introducing the fat just candle,
5:35:05
which is a hundred. The first candle, she is one hundred.
5:35:22
When you blow that candle out, you'll find immediately a
5:35:37
slight change in how you feel, as well as a
5:35:51
real sense of positivity growing within you, relaxation and sleepiness expanding.
5:36:22
Starting with one hundred, blow out back candle now ninety nine,
5:37:11

6:28:38
and eight jen six camp can do oo, can do, cheve.
6:33:00
Speaker 5: Two ten.
6:33:58
Speaker 1: Four. Let go of all of those thoughts, worries, concerns
6:34:11
about the past, thoughts about the future, and even things
6:34:18
you've been thinking about today. Just let it all go
6:34:26
because none of it is useful in this moment. This
6:34:33
is your opportunity to just focus on feeling relaxed, allowing
6:34:53
yourself to get in touch with that natural sense of
6:35:02
peace that we all have within us. It's available for everyone.
6:35:11
It just sometimes takes a little bit of effort to
6:35:16
set up the right time and place in order for
6:35:23
you to just let go. Because when you do decide
6:35:32
to let go and relax, that's what your body starts
6:35:37
to do because you've chosen, You've chosen to just allow
6:35:48
your body to unwind, and your mind starts to slow down,
6:35:57
and it's a nice feeling. It's a nice feeling at
6:36:01
the beginning, just to know that you have chosen to
6:36:07
decide to relax deeply, and because you've made that decision,
6:36:18
your body will just follow suit. Because sometimes all the
6:36:25
muscles in your body need is just permission from you
6:36:31
to relax, because so often we're busy, we're going from
6:36:40
here to there, we're walking around, and we're doing stuff,
6:36:46
and the body doesn't have any time or space to
6:36:53
really relax deeply. So it kind of waits for you
6:37:00
to lead the way, waits for your permission. And when
6:37:09
you do give your permission, when you give the say
6:37:16
so we need say okay, it's time for your body
6:37:24
to let go completely and relax totally, your body just follows.
6:37:36
It's like a breath of relief. Ah good, I can
6:37:41
now relax. That feeling at the end of a day
6:37:48
of very physical day that you may experience in the past,
6:37:54
but you get home and you just sit down on
6:37:57
a chair, maybe you kick your shoes off, and feels
6:38:02
so nice knowing that you don't have to get up
6:38:07
again for a little while at least, if you choose,
6:38:12
you can just sit there for maybe an hour to
6:38:17
It feels blissful, and just by sitting down like that,
6:38:30
your body knows that it's time to relax. Your body
6:38:35
has been given permission from you because it's a mindset.
6:38:42
In your mind, you're prepared to let go of everything
6:38:53
and just completely allow all the stress of your body
6:39:02
to evaporate. Any tensions can just gradually vanish. It's almost
6:39:20
like magic, really, because that sense of relaxation in your body,
6:39:33
it's a very natural state. It's not something unusual. It
6:39:40
may feel unusual when you first start to relax if
6:39:43
you if you haven't really spent a lot of time
6:39:47
focusing and giving yourself this space to let go completely
6:39:53
and relax, they seem more most alien, but it isn't.
6:40:00
It's actually the most natural thing in the world to
6:40:06
let go completely, to relax totally, the most natural thing
6:40:17
in the world to allow yourself to feel really calm
6:40:29
in your mind. And it is almost like a literal unwinding.
6:40:40
It's like you press a button and all the tension
6:40:46
just releases, and it's like a wheel, like a cog,
6:40:52
like the inside of a clock, just unwinding. And it's
6:40:56
almost like you could see the little wind up knob
6:41:01
that's used just going the opposite way that you choose
6:41:06
to wind it up, and the energy that frenetic stress
6:41:15
for energy gradually winding down, losing its power, losing its
6:41:24
strength as a sense of relaxation becomes stronger and deeper,
6:41:36
and you may find a the more relaxed you feel,
6:41:45
that your mind starts to wonder, maybe seem to stop
6:41:55
listening to me for a while, your mind goes somewhere else,
6:42:01
and then you realize you're listening to me again, and
6:42:07
that's just your mind to drifting to sleep, which is
6:42:14
quite natural, because sometimes when we're stressed and tense, we're
6:42:25
not I mean I actually be aware of what we need,
6:42:30
what we physically or emotionally need in this moment. But
6:42:39
when you allow your body and mind to relax completely
6:42:47
and you let go of all thoughts, concerns, worries, ideas,
6:42:55
all letting them go, allow them to drop onto the floor.
6:43:05
When you start to get in touch with the feelings
6:43:11
of such relaxation, this feels so nice, to be in
6:43:23
touch with the calmness of the different body parts as
6:43:30
they become looser and looser. Even your breathing seems easier
6:43:47
and more natural, effortless, as that cool air enters through
6:43:56
your mouth or nose into your lungs, breathing in comfort
6:44:05
and relaxation, and then just breathing out any excess remain
6:44:14
intention or stress from every part of your body and mind.
6:44:26
And as you start to focus on your mind, maybe
6:44:31
you notice that things come to a standstill or maybe
6:44:39
just much much lower than before because your mind is
6:44:48
not really needed when listening to my voice, which allows
6:44:59
your mind to relax just as deeply as your body.
6:45:08
And that's synchronicity between the relaxation of your body and
6:45:19
relaxation of your mind.
6:45:24
Speaker 4: Let you know that.
6:45:27
Speaker 1: Feeling completely calm, loose, and relaxed really is a great
6:45:40
healing experience fear and has so many positive benefits for
6:45:58
your body, mind, in your life. To be able to
6:46:04
let go everything and to relax completely in all parts
6:46:16
of your body and mind. Even your bones has aristed
6:46:27
or your muscles are ris even the skin that covers
6:46:40
your body is relaxed. Every hair that you have is
6:46:57
also deep the relaxed, and your brain really starts the
6:47:14
feel the benefits of this healing relaxation. And as you
6:47:28
focus on the inside of your scalp where your brain is,
6:47:36
you can start to realize and notice the benefits of
6:47:44
your brain relaxing deeply, and as your brain continues to relax,
6:48:00
ends those messages to the rest of your body and
6:48:09
your mind to rely, relax more deeply, relaxy more completely,
6:48:34
letting go of any remaining thoughts or concerns, allow them
6:48:46
just to drop onto the floor because they're no longer
6:48:52
necessary in this moment, this moment, so deep relaxation and calmness,
6:49:08
filling your brain with deep concentrated heathing, calming, relaxing every
6:49:36
part of your brain feeling so loose and comfortable, so
6:49:54
relaxed and beeaceful. Your brain feels so light and so
6:50:09
healthy in that sense of deep deep comfort really does
6:50:22
allow you to enjoy those ever increasing sensations of comfort
6:50:38
that are spreading throughout your body. Relaxing each and every
6:50:51
muscle of your body e deeper and deeper, much more
6:51:08
deeper than before, much more comfort spreading through your body.
6:51:27
Your mind.
6:51:30
Speaker 2: Be so.
6:51:34
Speaker 1: Peaceful and calm, so very very peaceful in avery part
6:51:53
of your body, letting go everything averything, so peaceful, cam
6:52:15

6:53:45
and deeper, Such comfort spreading and sinking deeper into every
6:54:02
muscle your body, so that you feel amazing, so relaxed,
6:54:20
so peaceful, so relax and peaceful, letting go everything. I'm
6:54:46
gonna do a body scan, focusing on firstly how you
6:54:53
feel in your body, not trying to change how you feel,
6:54:59
not trying to relax, not trying to move away from
6:55:04
any discomfort or stress or tension, just accepting, observing and
6:55:13
accepting how you feel in the different parts of your body,
6:55:20
just allowing yourself to be exactly as you are, to
6:55:28
notice to get in touch with how you actually feel
6:55:38
in this moment. So I'm going to start off by
6:55:46
focusing on your hands. Just be aware of your hands.
6:56:00
I'd like you to move your hands around, just maybe
6:56:05
move your fingers a little bit. I've been and closing
6:56:10
your hands very gently, just so that you can get
6:56:18
in touch with how your hands and your fingers fell,
6:56:30
very very slow movements. Focusing now on your feet and
6:56:49
if you can just do kind of an equivalent with
6:56:53
your feet, is you've just done with your hands, Maybe
6:57:01
turn in your ankles, moving your feet around, moving your
6:57:08
toes gently but only very gently and very slowly, noticing
6:57:22
how your feet fulfill in this moment. Focusing now and
6:57:37
your eyes. I like you to just focus on your eyelids.
6:57:47
Maybe you can open and close your eyes a couple
6:57:50
of times to really get in touch with how you
6:57:55
feel when you do close your eyes. The muscle changes
6:58:04
in your eyes when you do close them, maybe raising
6:58:10
your eyebrows. It stretches the tops of your eyes, perhaps
6:58:19
squinting your eyes, scrunching up your eyes just so you
6:58:27
can hear it again. Touch with all aspects of how
6:58:39
your eyes feel right now. Now, focus in on your thighs,
6:58:58
and you know it just starts you to gently tense
6:59:02
your thighs, just very very gently, just enough so you
6:59:12
can become more attuned to the physical sensation of your
6:59:25
upper legs, the front of your thighs, in the backs
6:59:31
of your thighs, noticing and observing how your thighs feel
6:59:47
right now, Moving your focus to the back of your neck,
7:00:03
just noticing the back of your neck, the muscles, and
7:00:10
of course they lead to the side of your neck.
7:00:14
They also lead to the top of your back, which
7:00:20
leads to your shoulders. So as your focus on the
7:00:25
back of your neck, maybe you can move your head
7:00:32
gently upwards as if you're looking up. Maybe moving your
7:00:40
head down as if you're looking down. Perhaps moving your
7:00:47
head side to side, right to left, but only very slowly,
7:01:00
very gently. I'm not trying to force anything. It has
7:01:08
to be very very gentle, just so you can be
7:01:20
more in touch with the feelings, with the sensations, the
7:01:31
physical sensations of how back of your neck feels. Right now,
7:01:50
as we now focus on the tops of your arms,
7:02:00
the parts where your biceps and your triceps are between
7:02:05
your elbow and your shoulders. Should focus on those parts,
7:02:14
the tops of your arms. You may like to just
7:02:20
tense them, but very very gently and slowly. See you
7:02:32
not straining or put in any pressure whatsoever on your arms.
7:02:44
It's just so that you can gain more of a
7:02:51
sense of how your upper arms are feeling in this moment,
7:03:05
and just noticing as you gently, very gently and slowly
7:03:17
tighten the muscles and then let go, notice how the
7:03:29
tops of your arms feel right now. As a now
7:03:44
focus on your stomach, the area the lower abdomen area
7:03:55
below your belly button, moving all away down to your hips,
7:04:05
just above your grind. Maybe you're able to tense these
7:04:17
muscles in that area very very gently and slowly, if
7:04:34
that's a difficult thing to do, and maybe you can
7:04:39
just move your body, pushing your stomach up, maybe moving
7:04:49
a little bit to the side using your hips, just
7:04:55
so you can get more in tune with how your
7:05:04
lower abdomen area is feeling in this moment. Just noticing
7:05:24
the physical sensations or your lower abdomen as you move
7:05:47
your attention to your mouth, noticing your lips and inside
7:06:01
your mouth, the tea, your guns, your tongue, just noticing
7:06:21
how your tongue and your mouth feels. It may help
7:06:28
by moving your tongue around your mouth, moving it to
7:06:37
your left, maybe pressing it gently against the side of
7:06:44
your mouth, and then to the right, gently to the
7:06:51
side of your mouth, perhaps pressing up against the top
7:06:59
of your mouth, and then down gently against the bottom
7:07:06
of your mouth, always very slowly, in a very very
7:07:20
gentle so that you can be aware of how you
7:07:37
feel in your mouth area. Now I'm going to focus.
7:08:01
Speaker 4: On your wrists.
7:08:13
Speaker 1: And I'm going to ask you to maybe just routine
7:08:19
your wrists by moving your hands in a circular motion
7:08:28
very gently and slowly, just so you can feel the
7:08:51
sensations that you are currently experiencing in your wrists. Perhaps
7:09:08
smooth in your hands up and down again very very
7:09:21
gently and slowly, very gentcel and slow, as you know,
7:10:00
start to observe your lower back. Their bad part is
7:10:16
just above of your hips where your coxis are a
7:10:32
whole area which also really does include the signs of
7:10:39
your body because those muscles are very much connected. There's
7:10:50
those muscles also move into your hip area connecting to
7:10:57
your buttocks the sides of your hips, and if you're
7:11:14
physically able to do so, maybe it can very gently
7:11:24
just move your body ever so slightly, very slowly, some
7:11:37
side to side, just enough gauge how you feel in
7:11:58
your lower back. Perhaps itctly even move your hips gently
7:12:16
up and down, gently and slowly in order to be
7:12:33
in touch with the physical sensations of your law back.
7:12:59
Has been now to your attention to your jaw, that
7:13:15
area from your chin all the way up to near
7:13:20
where your ears are, all of your jaw, you can
7:13:37
just yeah, it's okay to do so gently open your mouth,
7:13:49
not wide, no stretching, just very gently and slowly opening
7:14:01
your mouth in closing your mouth very gently and slowly
7:14:23
so you can be in touch with how your jaw feels. Now,
7:15:07
no to send now your chest area, and you don't
7:15:23
need to do anything to move your chest because it
7:15:31
moves every time you breathe, and it moves very gently
7:15:44
and slowly automatically with each breath you take. As you
7:16:01
focus on how your chest feels when you pray, move
7:16:48
in your focus to your forums, your dolbers. Maybe you're
7:17:04
able to very gently and slowly tense the muscles in
7:17:17
your forearms, and when you do that, you can feel
7:17:27
your elbows as well. Very gently and slowly, gently, softly
7:18:05
obsad your forearms and del boys. Now focus the rest
7:18:44
of your back, your upper back in the middle, the
7:18:57
middle of your back again this part of your body. News.
7:19:19
Also every time you pray, you may not notice that
7:19:31
usually makes you observe your upper back in the middle
7:19:43
of your back. You can really feel that gentle and
7:20:02
no moment moving your focus into your area new bodices.
7:20:56
You're grain to muscles and those bones in your midsection,
7:21:33
just noticing how there were hips feel right. Now you
7:21:53
can very very gently leave your hips, maybe side to side,
7:22:11
very gently and slowly, very gently, softly, slowly, everything starts
7:23:05
to slow down, including the thoughts in your mind and
7:23:20
your mind itself just starts to gradually. It doesn't have
7:23:31
to be instant, but just gradually starting too. It's almost
7:23:38
like time is streng chin. It's a slower pace to
7:23:50
maybe what you're used to in your day to day life.
7:23:59
It's a slow movement of energy, very small movements which
7:24:26
make up the larger movements, which is always the case.
7:24:34
Now when you move your hand, it might seem like
7:24:38
it's one movement, but it's lots of minute different muscles
7:24:44
moving in accordance with each other. And what happens in
7:24:55
this space that we're sharing is we move from that
7:25:12
big movement into those smaller movements. Starting to focus on
7:25:33
how your body feels, not just as a whole, not
7:25:40
just oh, i'm feel in this way. I'm feeling stressed
7:25:45
or tense, or I'm feeling relaxed and calm, I'm feeling
7:25:50
this way, I'm feeling that way. Starting to notice that
7:25:57
your body begins to present to you small feelings around
7:26:11
your body, small physical sensations in your legs, whether pleasurable
7:26:30
or not. Maybe resisting the temptation to label them or
7:26:44
to judge them, those feelings, just thinking them, thinking about
7:26:52
them is just being neutral, just feelings, not being particularly concerned,
7:27:10
but just noticing what your body is telling you. The
7:27:24
feelings in your arms. Instead of feeling the hole of
7:27:31
the arm, maybe notice those individual feelings, all those different
7:27:41
muscles and the skin, the hairs of your arms, all
7:27:55
the internal parts of your arms, the veins, the bones,
7:28:11
just being aware of maybe your elbow on your right
7:28:17
arm has a certain feeling. Maybe your left wrist also
7:28:28
has its own individual physical sensation. What about your forearm
7:28:52
on your right arm, your right forearm, there may not
7:29:05
be any particular feeling that you could even give a
7:29:13
name to, may not feel like anything other than just
7:29:20
a feeling. You know it's there. The feelings in your shoulders,
7:29:34
perhaps your shoulders when you think about them, kind of
7:29:37
almost like they're the same, you know, the same feeling,
7:29:44
almost like both of your shoulders are just one thing.
7:29:50
Of course they're not. And when you focus on your
7:30:01
left shoulder and then on your right shoulder, maybe find
7:30:09
that you move the muscles a little bit, maybe tense
7:30:15
the muscles gently noticing the difference in each shoulder on
7:30:40
your lower back, the left side of your lower back
7:30:56
and the right side of your lower back. Of course
7:31:08
that connection to your buttocks and to your hips, and
7:31:20
also moving up into the middle of your back. And
7:31:33
sometimes like right now, actually when I focus on their part,
7:31:39
when I focused on my buttocks and then I focused
7:31:44
on the middle of my back, I almost felt like
7:31:48
the muscles in my lower back were being stretched very gently,
7:31:58
just stretched a little bit. Even though I wasn't doing
7:32:03
anything to try to stretch your lower back, it just
7:32:12
seemed to happen. The feeling of very gently stretching your
7:32:24
lower back comes along. I have feeling in your chest,
7:32:51
just noticing what sensations you are experiencing in your chest
7:33:05
right now. And there's so much of the chest. Obviously,
7:33:21
there's the collar bone leading to the chest. You've got
7:33:25
the chest bone, You've got the muscles in your chest.
7:33:36
Of course, if you're female, there's possibly the breasts. If
7:33:42
you're male, you've got the different well why not that
7:33:50
different these days, but there may be more muscles at
7:33:58
the top of the chest, but at the side underneath
7:34:05
it's pretty much the same, whether you're a man or
7:34:08
a woman. There's muscles there, muscles that stretch out to
7:34:15
your back, as well as breast tissue which stretches and
7:34:19
moves into your back, to just being aware of your
7:34:27
chest being with whatever feeling there is in your chest.
7:35:03
When I noticed that, I focus on my chest, I
7:35:11
feel it in my back and my upper back. I mean,
7:35:16
I guess the obvious reason would be because you know,
7:35:19
I'll breathe in in, then it stretches my chest and
7:35:30
my back at the same time. It feels it feels okay,
7:35:51
it doesn't feel I got a little bit of pain
7:35:55
in my right chest, a little bit, not pain, but
7:36:02
little discomfort, maybe stiffness possibly, I don't know. I noticed
7:36:13
my shoulders are also wanting to flex for some reason.
7:36:22
I think that's probably part of my upper back, that
7:36:30
connection between my shoulders my oper back, because I can
7:36:35
move my shoulders and stretch the muscles in my back,
7:36:42
moving the shoulders backwards or up, which then moves I
7:36:49
think it's the scapulous in your back. It feels quite nice. Actually,
7:37:10
a good thing about this is you can, if you
7:37:14
want to, you can just flex or stimulate the various
7:37:28
muscles in your body gently in order to get more
7:37:35
of the sense of how they feel. And when you're relaxing,
7:37:51
when you do tense and muscle and you let it
7:37:55
go and you let it relax, it relaxes way more.
7:38:04
Speaker 10: Than it would normally. That you have to feel that
7:38:14
you're able to do that. There's no point doing it
7:38:18
if there's.
7:38:19
Speaker 1: An issue with the per part of your body. You
7:38:27
need to be gentle with yourself at all times when
7:38:37
relaxing deeply. It's important to be kind to yourself. As
7:38:56
you notice your mind. How much has your mind slowed
7:39:05
down since we started this recording? How came and peaceful
7:39:34
is your mind right now? We have nothing to think
7:39:44
about and just my voice to listen to, because you know,
7:39:54
the intention behind this recording is relaxation. At the very least,
7:40:07
for you to feel more relaxed at the end of
7:40:11
the recording than you did at the beginning. At the
7:40:20
very least, for your mind to slow down as your
7:40:31
body continues to relax, because that's what you want to happen.
7:40:52
That's what you expect to happen. A relaxation to fill
7:41:13
your body, maybe calm your mind to the point of boredom.
7:41:30
When you start maybe to drift away, it's almost as
7:42:15
if you're moving further away from your body in your mind,
7:42:27
just leaving that there, kind of liking it an escape
7:42:39
pod in the spaceship a movie, a space movie, you know,
7:42:44
when they get into that little pod in it. Since
7:42:48
the man far away from the spaceship safe dream continue
7:43:19
to relax, drifting slur and pe so so rares and
7:44:45
pie sel and focusing on the feeding of those individual
7:45:20
parts of your body that are relaxing one by one.
7:45:37
You may find that every now and then you realize
7:45:50
that you aren't listening to my voice because your mind
7:46:01
started to imagine something different, maybe started to almost move
7:46:16
into some kind of a dreamy state, And then you
7:46:26
become aware of my voice again. And even though you
7:46:33
may want to focus on my voice, you may also
7:46:40
wish to allow your mind to just drift naturally into
7:46:54
that space of comfort and safety. As you feel more
7:47:16
comfort spreading through your body like a warm blanket covering
7:47:30
you gently, keeping your body at just the perfect temperature,
7:47:54
and even if you can hear background sounds, they just
7:48:06
don't seem to matter anymore. There's that sense peace spreads
7:48:23
through your mind like a gentle breeze, yet strong enough
7:48:37
to blow away all negativity, strong.
7:48:48
Speaker 11: Enough to.
7:48:52
Speaker 1: Remove from your mind any anxiety es stress that was
7:49:03
there before, and blow away any other thoughts or feelings
7:49:18
that just don't fit with the sense relaxation that is
7:49:44
feeling your body and your mind. And as you focus
7:50:09
on your mind and count down from ten down to one,
7:50:17
and with each number you hear, your mind will become
7:50:34
slightly more relaxed, just just slightly so. From ten down
7:50:53
to nine, just a slight movement. Nine and to eight,
7:51:02
just another small change in how you feel. Eight down
7:51:18
to seven. That feeling is a gap, almost like a
7:51:27
gap that starts to get wider, the gap between those
7:51:35
feelings that you used to have in your mind compared
7:51:44
to the feelings you have there growing now, feelings of
7:51:51
comfort and security and confidence. And they gap becomes wider.
7:52:03
Eight down to seven, seven down to six. When you
7:52:11
get to five, your mind will start to have a
7:52:17
certain physical sensation, most like there's a magnet outside of
7:52:31
your head sucking the tension and the stress and any
7:52:37
remaining feelings that you don't want, sucking them out through
7:52:45
your skull. And in down to four you can start
7:52:55
to really experience that sense of not just emptiness, but space,
7:53:10
a place full of fresh air, the place where you
7:53:17
can stretch. It's almost as if as you go down
7:53:24
to four and three, your mind is expanding with this
7:53:31
sense of peace and tranquility growing as it moves down
7:53:44
to When you get to one, your mind just feels
7:53:56
exactly how you want to feel, almost perfect feeling, maybe
7:54:16
the sensation that you'd like to keep a place that's safe,
7:54:26
where nothing can affect you at all, and you can
7:54:47
stay in that that space of confort and confidence, confident
7:54:56
in your own ability to create this space and this
7:55:04
feeling of comfort within your own mind just by counting
7:55:11
from ten down to one. And this is something that
7:55:20
you can do yourself when you're on your own, the
7:55:29
time when you can maybe sit down, maybe just for
7:55:33
a few minutes, close your eyes, just count slowly from
7:55:46
ten down to one and re experience these feelings in
7:56:00
your mind. And when you feel that way in your mind,
7:56:11
your body copies your mind, and that feeling is spread
7:56:25
through your spine and your nervous system into every part
7:56:33
of your body, travels through your blood stream, healing and
7:56:45
relaxing every particle of your existence, and we can. We
7:57:06
can practice this a few times before the end of
7:57:14
the recording.
7:57:15
Speaker 4: And then you can.
7:57:17
Speaker 1: Practice on your own. And each time you count for
7:57:23
ten about one, the feelings of comfort, calmness and deep
7:57:38
deep relaxation becomes stronger and deeper feeling your mind and
7:57:55
your brain with these positive to the chemicals, the spread
7:58:04
throughout your body, relaxing you so quickly, relaxing your whole
7:58:14
body and mind so very very easily just by counting.
7:58:27
Speaker 4: For ten down to one. That so we're going to do.
7:58:38
Speaker 1: Now, I'm going to count from ten down to one.
7:58:43
I'd like you to repeat the number after me. So
7:58:47
when I say ten, you can just repeat to yourself ten.
7:59:02
Just notice, be aware of how you feel in your
7:59:11
mind and your body. Then when I say nine, you
7:59:21
can repeat to yourself nine again, noticing the increase in
7:59:37
comfort and calmness in your mind and in your body.
7:59:51
The same when I say eight, when I say seven, six,
8:00:03
when I say five, four, when I say three, two,
8:00:21
and lastly when I say one, you can repeat that number.
8:00:35
Speaker 2: Now.
8:00:35
Speaker 1: Of course, when you do this on your own without
8:00:41
listening to me, you can say the numbers or whatever
8:00:48
speed that you feel is necessary. For you, so you
8:00:56
can adapt. If you feel you want to say the
8:01:02
numbers ten down to one faster than I do, then
8:01:10
you go ahead and do that. Or if you feel
8:01:14
when you do it yourself, you'd like to have more
8:01:19
more space between the numbers, maybe take a lot longer
8:01:27
to get from ten all the way down to one,
8:01:37
that's your choice also to do. So I'm going to
8:01:50
count from ten down to one. I want to get
8:01:58
to one.
8:02:00
Speaker 4: There will be the end of.
8:02:02
Speaker 1: This recording the less, of course, you're listening with music,
8:02:09
and the music will continue ten nine fights s.
8:05:01
Speaker 12: Assassa as a.
8:06:50
Speaker 1: Twenty ninety eighteen, seventeen, sixteen, fifteen, fourteen, thirteen twelve eleven,
8:07:41
ten nine, eight, seven, six, five, four, three two one.
8:08:36
Now open your eyes, noticing how you physically feel having
8:08:46
counted down from twenty to one, allowing stress and tension
8:08:54
to leave through your fingertips and your taps, and as
8:08:59
your folks on your fingertips, maybe they feel a little
8:09:04
bit tingly, which is I suppose quite understanding, considering the
8:09:11
tension has been exiting your body through your fingertips. So
8:09:22
now I'm going to count from twenty down to one again.
8:09:25
This time you get to feel relief of tension and
8:09:34
stress and the anxiety.
8:09:37
Speaker 4: That you may have.
8:09:42
Speaker 1: Leaving through your stomach. Just leaving through your stomach, almost
8:09:50
as if it's just releasing the whole of your stomach,
8:09:57
enable to just above your chest or below your chest,
8:10:02
rather so surround in your belly by an area, the
8:10:06
whole area. You can feel the tension of your body
8:10:12
wherever it's left, just releasing from that area. And you
8:10:18
may notice that your stomach will become very relaxed. As
8:10:23
I countdown from twenty down to one now twenty nineteen, eighteen, seventeen, sixteen, fifteen, fourteen, thirteen, twelve, eleven, ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five, four, three,
8:11:58
two h and you can open your eyes again if
8:12:10
you choose, or you can just keep them closed because
8:12:14
it feels relaxing. Just notice how your stomach feels. I
8:12:21
notice as your focus, just do a little scan of
8:12:25
your body. Just notice how your body feels, focusing on
8:12:34
your upper body, your back, chest, stomach, legs, arms, hands, feet,
8:12:44
just noticing, and you know, you may start to feel
8:12:54
more of a sense of tiredness, which may be the
8:12:57
reason you're listening to this according because you would like
8:13:04
to let go completely of everything and dread off into
8:13:13
a nice, natural, calm, relaxing sleep. So now we're going
8:13:28
to focus on your forehead, and if you choose, you
8:13:38
can incorporate your eyes in this focus as well. Your
8:13:43
forehead and your eyes. It's that whole area basically almost
8:13:50
as if you were wearing a mask, you know, like
8:13:53
a I don't know, a Batman mask or something, or
8:14:00
I'm trying to fact zorro or something, you know, the
8:14:03
kind of mask that covers your eyes but also covers
8:14:06
quite a lot of the forehead, and focusing on that
8:14:12
area because that's the area that we're now going to
8:14:14
release tension and stress from your mind and your brain.
8:14:21
From your mind, and any tension that you may have
8:14:25
remaining in your face, in your neck and your jaw,
8:14:30
your eyes, your forehead, or your scalp. So basically any
8:14:37
tension within your head area, including your mind and your brain,
8:14:47
and that's going to be released through your forehead and
8:14:51
your eyes. As I comed down again from twenty down
8:14:59
to one now twenty nineteen, eighteen, seventeen, sixteen, fifteen, fourteen, thirteen, twelve, eleven, ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five,
8:16:28
four three two one Medicine and she scanned your face
8:16:57
with jaw, your eyes, the cheap bones, your ears, your forehead,
8:17:06
your scalp, your neck, the back of your neck, in
8:17:12
the front of your neck, the side of your neck,
8:17:15
and the throat. Noticing being aware of the comfort increased
8:17:30
in the relaxation, not just in your head and neck
8:17:39
and mind, also the rest of your body. Just notice
8:17:48
how loose and calm you feel, and how easily.
8:17:56
Speaker 4: It is to just let go.
8:18:01
Speaker 1: Completely, let go completely, how easily. So what I'm going
8:18:25
to do now is I to focus on the top
8:18:29
of your head, and we're going to allow every last
8:18:41
piece of tension or stress that might be lingering or
8:18:47
hiding in your body or mind my head.
8:18:53
Speaker 4: To just.
8:18:55
Speaker 2: Be sucked out on the top of your head, at least.
8:19:05
Speaker 4: Into the air.
8:19:07
Speaker 1: One sucked down into the clouds. Imagine a bit cloud
8:19:13
of God your head and it's like a whirlpool, and
8:19:19
this can suck that tension.
8:19:23
Speaker 4: Out the top of your head.
8:19:26
Speaker 1: And just take away.
8:19:30
Speaker 4: The good.
8:19:33
Speaker 1: Your focus. Imagine an opening on the top of your
8:19:37
head with that tension and stress and any remaining issues
8:19:44
may be worries of concerns that have no use to you.
8:19:48
Speaker 2: Now you can all be sucked down at the top
8:19:52
of your head.
8:19:54
Speaker 1: Taken away as I count down again bet t d
8:20:00
down to one now twenty nineteen, eighteen, seventeen, sixteen, fifteen, fourteen, thirteen, twelve, even, ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five.
8:21:49
Speaker 2: Four three.
8:22:03
Speaker 1: WHA breathe, noticing how you feel, how relaxed and calm
8:22:32
you physically and mentally feel right now, how peaceful your
8:22:47
mind feels. It feels so nice to just let go,
8:22:55
to give yourself some space to breathe easily, to.
8:23:03
Speaker 4: Think calmly, and just to take a break from.
8:23:13
Speaker 1: All that pointless worry concerns about things that you don't
8:23:19
need to think about right now, because this is your
8:23:30
time to let go. This is your space to enjoy
8:23:36
feeling deeply relaxed, peaceful in your mind, relaxed in your body.
8:23:49
They can feel so good, so nice to just not
8:23:58
have to do anything, to be able to really enjoy
8:24:09
that serenity that comes of letting go completely, that peacefulness
8:24:18
that comes with being in this peaceful space. And you
8:24:36
can keep this sense of calmness for as long as
8:24:41
you choose. If you choose to drift off into a deep, healing,
8:24:56
natural sleep, then you can do that. It's completely up
8:25:04
to you, and you can keep this feeling of calmness
8:25:13
physically and in your mind as long as you choose
8:25:20
to feel completely relaxed, completely relax.
8:25:34
Speaker 4: And I'd like you to make up your mind that
8:25:40
you're going to relax, and I.
8:25:50
Speaker 1: Want to explore that with you. What it feels like
8:25:53
when you actually decide that you're going to relax, not
8:26:02
forcing yourself, but giving yourself that. Yes, it is a command, really,
8:26:09
isn't it. When you're telling yourself relax in a gentle
8:26:16
but firm way, that only you can really tell yourself
8:26:24
in that way. You can't really have someone else saying
8:26:27
to you now it relax, relax, you know, and it
8:26:33
needs to be gentle, but you can't someone else can't
8:26:35
really have the same the same kind of influence or
8:26:45
power that you have over your own physicality, over how
8:26:53
you feel.
8:27:00
Speaker 4: Is when you say it to yourself, it means more.
8:27:05
Speaker 1: It's personal, and your brain and your unconscious mind and
8:27:12
your body listens to what you say. So, for example,
8:27:19
we'll test it out and do a little test, a
8:27:22
few little tests along the way, and you can get
8:27:26
more of an idea of the force, a positive force
8:27:32
that you can have in creating a sense of comfort
8:27:39
and relaxation in your body and your mind quite quickly
8:27:46
just by you telling yourself to relax. So I'm going
8:27:57
to start by let's focus on your hand. Yes, so
8:28:03
focus on your hands and just tell your hands to relax,
8:28:07
and just say relax. As you focus on your hands,
8:28:15
you could say my hands are relaxed, or I want
8:28:19
my hands to relax. I think if you actually do
8:28:24
it directly by focusing and imagining that your hands can
8:28:32
hear what you're saying.
8:28:33
Speaker 4: You know they've got little ears, which is a little weird.
8:28:39
Speaker 1: So talking to your hands and just say relax, noticin.
8:28:56
Now your hands start to relax. Now focus on your
8:29:11
eyes and tell your eyes to relax. You're just saying
8:29:15
the same word relax. And find the right tone for you.
8:29:25
You know, I might say relax, but you you might
8:29:29
say relax or relax. You know, you might say it
8:29:37
differently to yourself, and that's important for you to gauge
8:29:45
what feels right for you. To just tell your eyes
8:29:51
to relax whilst focusing on your eyes, your eyelids, the
8:29:56
muscles around your eyes, your eyebrows, and just tell your
8:30:01
eyes directly relax now. Now, I just did that myself,
8:30:36
and sometimes you may feel that you need a bit
8:30:46
more time for the different parts to relax, you know,
8:30:52
because I start talking again and maybe that part hasn't
8:30:57
relaxed fully. But what will happen is would just continue
8:31:01
to relax even though I'm talking. And that's happened with
8:31:05
my eyes. Something else I noticed is when I started
8:31:12
focusing on my eyes, that actually almost became They got
8:31:16
worse before they got better in a way. So I
8:31:20
felt a degree of tension growing in my eyes and
8:31:24
then disappearing. So I think what that was really was
8:31:29
just me becoming more aware of the tension that was
8:31:35
already there that I wasn't. I wasn't focused on it before,
8:31:41
so I wasn't really acknowledging it or really conscious to
8:31:49
those feelings. Yeah, my eyes is still continuing to relax,
8:32:03
as well as my hands. Actually, my hands have got
8:32:09
a certain kind of energy, like not buzzing, but I
8:32:15
can kind of feel a degree of energy in my hands.
8:32:23
Maybe that's where the tension is being released. Maybe that's
8:32:28
the cause in that the next part, I think we
8:32:37
should focus.
8:32:38
Speaker 4: On the back of the neck.
8:32:40
Speaker 1: That's a part which quite often well for me, holds tension.
8:32:45
I don't know about for yourself, but I think it's
8:32:48
quite a standard place where tension is sometimes held. So
8:32:56
and I'm doing exactly what you're doing as you do
8:32:59
it as well, so I'm telling my body parts to
8:33:03
relax as well.
8:33:05
Speaker 4: So if you tell your neck at the back.
8:33:06
Speaker 1: Of your neck, focus on the back of your neck,
8:33:09
and just say relax in your own words, in your
8:33:16
own tone, in your own voice. You can say out loud,
8:33:20
or you can just say it to yourself internally. But
8:33:24
you're focusing, and you're saying it literally to the.
8:33:29
Speaker 4: Back of your neck, as if the back of your
8:33:31
neck can actually hear what you're saying. So do that now,
8:33:39
Just say relax to the back of your neck, and
8:33:43
I'll do the same.
8:34:23
Speaker 1: Then what I noticed, and you may have had similar
8:34:26
thing is even though I was focusing on the back
8:34:31
of my neck, other parts started to I don't know
8:34:42
showed themselves to me, or maybe because they want to
8:34:45
be relaxed as well. But I started noticing the feelings
8:34:49
in my shoulders at tension in my shoulders and in
8:34:53
my upper back. Whether that was because my own back
8:35:00
of my neck was saying well, I'm pretty much okay.
8:35:05
It's the other parts that need attention. But my lobe,
8:35:15
my back of my neck is still relaxing, but I
8:35:19
just became more aware of other parts that needed attention. Now,
8:35:26
this might happen, and it's not. It doesn't mean that
8:35:31
it's going wrong. It just means you're being notified of
8:35:36
more places that also want to feel relaxed. So I'm
8:35:44
going to focus on my upper back so you can
8:35:48
do the same even if you don't have any feelings
8:35:54
of tension that obvious in.
8:35:56
Speaker 4: Your upper back.
8:35:59
Speaker 1: If you just folks something, you're.
8:36:00
Speaker 4: Back and.
8:36:03
Speaker 1: The whole area from the shoulder blades down to the
8:36:08
middle of your back and the spine, and with me,
8:36:12
it's more the shoulder blades are more.
8:36:19
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's the parts that really sort of giving me.
8:36:26
Speaker 2: The not.
8:36:29
Speaker 1: That it needs to relax in the sounds.
8:36:30
Speaker 4: Gonna ask that part to relax and you can do
8:36:34
the same.
8:36:34
Speaker 1: Now relaxed up the back. Things strange happened there, And
8:37:02
this often happens.
8:37:04
Speaker 4: I've been doing this.
8:37:05
Speaker 1: For sixteen years or something, and often I'm one surprised
8:37:15
but amazed.
8:37:16
Speaker 4: Really bad.
8:37:19
Speaker 1: There can be a feeling. So when I was focusing
8:37:23
on the back.
8:37:24
Speaker 4: Of my neck.
8:37:25
Speaker 1: My upper back was starting to feel quite stressed and
8:37:30
in need of attention. As soon as I started talking
8:37:36
to you about my upper back and talking about, you know,
8:37:41
getting ready to ask the upper back to relax, why
8:37:46
the back already started to relax. It's almost as if
8:37:52
it doesn't need to hear the words, just needs attention,
8:38:02
just needs to be noticed. And that is something that
8:38:14
often happens in this type of situation is when you
8:38:21
start to relax a couple of parts of your body,
8:38:28
as we've done with our hands, their eyes and the eyelids,
8:38:34
and now back of the neck, top of the bag,
8:38:43
up the back, the rest of the body seems to
8:38:47
just take notice and decide in its own way to
8:38:55
start relaxing. Other parts of your body start to just
8:39:04
become looser. I suppose it's kind of like a bit
8:39:12
of an avalanche, you know, the little ball starts rolling
8:39:16
and before you know it, the whole of your body
8:39:19
is completely relaxed and can't And if you focus on
8:39:31
your face, you focus on your eyes, your eyelids, your eyebrows,
8:39:44
and the muscles around your eyes, maybe you start to
8:39:53
notice that your forehead is more relaxed than it was.
8:40:00
Maybe your face is more relaxed. I would say my
8:40:06
entire face is a lot more relaxed than it was.
8:40:21
So you're going to focus now on your shoulders again,
8:40:27
just like before. Just tell your shoulders. I mean you
8:40:32
can't do them in the digity. You can do the
8:40:34
right shoulder and the shoulder. I just generally do both
8:40:38
at the same time. Just tell your shoulders as you
8:40:44
focus on them in your mind, focus on how you feel.
8:40:49
Maybe you can see them in your mind's eye. Just
8:40:57
tell your shoulders.
8:41:02
Speaker 2: To relax.
8:41:40
Speaker 1: As nice as they relax. But I didn't notice, especially
8:41:56
my bank is the connection between the different parts the back,
8:42:05
the shoulders, the neck being all connected and being such
8:42:15
a large part of your body, it's almost hard to
8:42:21
separate them from each other. And my lower back has
8:42:30
started to relax on the same.
8:42:37
Speaker 4: Maybe I'm going too.
8:42:38
Speaker 1: Slow and that could be an issue because we all
8:42:45
go at different speeds. And the idea at the beginning
8:42:51
of this recording was for you to be able to
8:42:54
just say to yourself, relax without focusing on any particular
8:43:10
part of your body. Because when you know that telling
8:43:16
your hands to relax and your hands relax. You tell
8:43:28
your eyelids and your eyes, the muscles around your eyes,
8:43:37
and your eyebrows to relax, and they relax. When you
8:43:50
tell the back of your neck to relax, and it relaxes.
8:44:10
Until you're up back to relax and it relaxes.
8:44:38
Speaker 2: He tell your.
8:44:39
Speaker 1: Shoulders to relax, and they relax.
8:45:00
Speaker 12: Hm.
8:45:17
Speaker 1: And you told your hands to relax, they relaxed, and.
8:45:21
Speaker 4: They continued.
8:45:24
Speaker 1: To relax. When you told your eyelids, the muscles around
8:45:35
your eyes, your eyebrows to relax, they relaxed.
8:45:45
Speaker 4: And continue.
8:45:48
Speaker 1: To relax. When you told the back of your neck,
8:45:58
focused on the back of your neck and told it
8:46:04
to relax, it relaxed and continued to relax. And you
8:46:24
told your alpa back to relax, be relaxed and continued
8:46:36
to relax. That's with your shoulders. He told your shoulders
8:46:50
to relax.
8:46:51
Speaker 3: In your.
8:46:54
Speaker 1: Shoulders relaxed and continued to relax.
8:47:09
Speaker 4: And it's not just that, It's.
8:47:17
Speaker 1: That the rest of your body has also been listening,
8:47:23
and that relaxation has been spreading. So from your eyes,
8:47:29
the relaxation spread to your forehead, around your face, into
8:47:37
your skin, into your jaw, into the front and sides
8:47:51
of your neck, all the way down your chest and stomach.
8:48:02
Your relaxed hands and shoulders.
8:48:07
Speaker 4: Meet up through your arms, relaxing.
8:48:13
Speaker 1: And full arms, your upper arms, elbows, your wrists, letting
8:48:22
your the lower bag, your hips, but exploying and just
8:48:39
start to relax and continue even your comfort spreading through
8:48:48
your legs.
8:48:54
Speaker 4: All the way down to your.
8:48:56
Speaker 1: Ankles, the tops of your feet, the sight of your feet,
8:49:08
and the bottoms of your feet, relaxing into your toes.
8:49:22
Each tone relaxing became please, And if your body relaxes more,
8:49:48
your mind becomes slower, more peaceful, to the point where.
8:50:14
Speaker 4: If you choose to fall asleep, you can easily do
8:50:26
that easy drift the way because there's nothing going on
8:50:42
in your mind.
8:50:46
Speaker 1: The phrase peaceful your body continues to recates, and with
8:51:27
that connection between your body relaxing, the word you say
8:51:35
to yourself relax means that you don't need to focus
8:51:49
on just one part. You can just focus on your
8:51:57
entire body, saying the powerful word whoss and deserve. Those
8:52:26
are miniar sensations of comfort spreading throughout your body, loosening
8:52:43
and calming and healing every power to your body, heaving.
8:52:59
Speaker 2: More lights.
8:53:18
Speaker 4: Al need to be now is just tell your sothris.
8:53:39
Speaker 1: Beating completely out then sorry, starting now with number twenty
8:54:11
nineteen eighteen seventeen sixteen fifth four first st.
8:56:33
Speaker 11: Well attatatatatatto.
9:00:31
Speaker 3: Cook us.
9:04:15
Speaker 8: Usastas whatsassa.
9:07:58
Speaker 13: Two countin down from ten to one, ten.
9:08:13
Speaker 1: Nine eight, seven, six five four three two.
9:08:35
Speaker 2: One.
9:08:42
Speaker 1: And maybe that was a bit too quick in order
9:08:45
to relax. Maybe it's a bit too fast for you
9:08:49
to notice the calming of your body, maybe even a
9:08:59
little bit of pressure. They're like, you're counting down from
9:09:03
ten to one. What do you expect me to do? Man,
9:09:06
expect me to stick go with floppy just because you're
9:09:10
counting down. If you try it again, but this time,
9:09:20
I'll go this lower this time, and you focus on
9:09:27
the whole of your body before we focus on your legs.
9:09:34
Just notice how your body does start to feel more
9:09:43
relaxed with every number that I count down.
9:09:56
Speaker 13: Ten nine, eight, seven, six, five.
9:10:43
Speaker 4: Four three.
9:11:04
Speaker 1: Two one, And just notice how how you feel generally,
9:11:42
how your body feels. It's not necessarily even about counting
9:11:57
down from ten to one. It's that space that you have,
9:12:05
that body space between being active physically or mentally to
9:12:24
just sitting or lying down, just being there, not doing anything,
9:12:34
not saying anything, not deeding to think about anything. So
9:12:41
it opens up a space, you know, a bit of
9:12:44
a space, the gap. And the more I came down
9:12:55
from the tent to one, the bigger that gap become.
9:13:02
So there's that gap of calmness, of comfort, relaxation. It's
9:13:15
a nice feeling, and it moves those stresses or discomforts
9:13:29
physically or emotionally, moves them away. Allows you.
9:13:44
Speaker 4: To just.
9:13:48
Speaker 1: Slow down, someone to count again from ten down to one,
9:13:55
and notice that gap. Widen the gap, and as it widens,
9:14:05
it's almost like the stress and attention falls into the gap.
9:14:25
It gives you that distance, that space.
9:14:32
Speaker 2: Now ten.
9:14:41
Speaker 13: Nine, eight, seven, six, five, four, three.
9:16:07
Speaker 1: Two one, And how did your.
9:16:41
Speaker 4: What do you feel.
9:16:44
Speaker 1: Now? Can you notice that the feeling calmer? Are you
9:17:09
feeling more relaxed? As we now focus on your legs,
9:17:39
just your legs. We're just gonna start with focusing on
9:18:00
your thighs. Of course, it's not the most exciting thing
9:18:20
to be doing because I'm sure like most of your
9:18:26
body is not not going on by now. Just focusing
9:18:39
on the whole of your thighs, the tops of your thighs,
9:18:46
the sides of your thighs, the bottoms of your thighs,
9:18:53
the outer thighs, and the inner thighs. Basically the hole
9:18:58
of your thigh that leads into your head and it
9:19:06
goes down to your knee joints. Now, this is a
9:19:17
big area. It's a very heavy area, very strong, probably
9:19:27
the strongest muscles in your body or in your thighs.
9:19:41
Speaker 4: But I don't think we.
9:19:44
Speaker 1: Perhaps would give enough attention to ad thighs. Perhaps we
9:19:57
don't knowledge how important our thighs are to our lives,
9:20:19
how much they actually do for us, all for our lives.
9:20:35
And it may seem sound really weird, but.
9:20:41
Speaker 4: I think that all of.
9:20:42
Speaker 1: Our body parts, especially our eies, need some TLC. I
9:20:53
love shown Earth, acknowledgement, thank you gratitude for what advice
9:21:14
do for us.
9:21:21
Speaker 4: And I know this may sound and it's strange, and
9:21:27
maybe you think, why am I? Surely how I should
9:21:30
be able in.
9:21:31
Speaker 1: The garden hugging a tree or something. It's hard to
9:21:39
set a microphone up on a tree. That's why I'm
9:21:43
doing this indoors. Otherwise I would be outside hugging a tree.
9:21:47
Now I can't see the television from the tree you
9:21:56
move down to your knees gained such an important part,
9:22:05
and I think we don't necessarily I'll speak for myself here,
9:22:13
I don't necessarily appreciate all that my needs do for
9:22:18
me until I have a problem with my need. Occasionally,
9:22:24
if I either maybe i'll bash it or it's aching
9:22:30
for some reason, it's then that I realize how much
9:22:36
it does. You know, the benefit of being able to
9:22:41
use my legs without any kind of physical discomfort is
9:22:51
a beautiful thing that's possibly not appreciated until it's temporarily removed.
9:23:01
You know that's comfort. But as you focus on your
9:23:07
these regardless of how your needs feel, you can have
9:23:15
that sense of gratitude.
9:23:20
Speaker 4: And love to your needs for all that they do.
9:23:33
Speaker 1: And you can still have that attention on your thighs.
9:23:37
Maybe notice how your thighs feel. Maybe you've noticed that
9:23:44
they are relaxing more.
9:23:52
Speaker 4: Deeply.
9:24:00
Speaker 1: You focus now on the bottoms of your legs, the shins,
9:24:06
and your car muscles, the bones between your knees and
9:24:13
your feet incorporates, and course your ankles. So important can
9:24:26
anyone's had, even like the slightest sprain of an.
9:24:31
Speaker 4: Ankle knows how how much we take our.
9:24:37
Speaker 1: Ankles, I are granted, and it's kind of strange in
9:24:46
a way when you think that. You know, logically, our
9:24:51
wrists are a lot finner than the rest of their arms,
9:24:56
which is okay, it doesn't I can't see any problem
9:24:59
with that, you know, just picking stuff up by our
9:25:04
ankles so much thinner than the rest of our legs,
9:25:17
and from a physics perspective or logical even it doesn't really.
9:25:21
Speaker 4: Make sense that all this weight.
9:25:26
Speaker 1: Will ultimately be resting on your ankles then leading to
9:25:33
your feet, that thin area, thin bone. Yeah, it does
9:25:47
so much great work. Supports us, supports our body for
9:25:53
a lifetime, helps us to balance, It helps you to
9:26:08
get around and be mobile. And there's the calf muscles.
9:26:17
Of course, when I was younger, I couldn't see the
9:26:25
point in calf muscles. Didn't seem to do anything. Okay,
9:26:31
if I walked around on tiptoes, then my calf.
9:26:34
Speaker 4: Muscles get some work. But of course that's not true.
9:26:38
The calf muscles are being used whenever.
9:26:41
Speaker 1: We use our legs, and your shins there to protect
9:26:55
your lower legs, shaped in a way almost as a protector,
9:27:05
with the bone leading of course to your ankles.
9:27:20
Speaker 4: In your feet.
9:27:25
Speaker 1: I'm not going to focus on your feet.
9:27:27
Speaker 4: I'm just going to focus on the legs.
9:27:30
Speaker 1: I realize, and now that I've mentioned your feet, it
9:27:35
would be focuses on them anyway, So maybe I should
9:27:40
focus on.
9:27:40
Speaker 4: Your feet a little bit. You can have them in your.
9:27:46
Speaker 1: Awareness the same as you have your fighs in your awareness.
9:27:54
Speaker 4: Even though we haven't been.
9:27:55
Speaker 1: Focusing on your fighs for a few minutes and you're
9:28:00
focusing on your ankles, there's still that sensation of comfort
9:28:18
in your thighs, and there's that movement of energy because
9:28:30
the fies holds lots of different sensations. Of course, there's
9:28:37
the muscles, the big strong muscles that we have in
9:28:41
our eyes. But the skin on the outside of the pies,
9:28:56
as in the outside of all the body, it can
9:29:01
be very sensitive, sensitive to the touch, sensitive to temperature,
9:29:19
and inside your thighs the bones, there's the muscle, there's
9:29:27
the blood, vessels, the art trees to all this stuff
9:29:32
inside your thighs. I guess sometimes.
9:29:40
Speaker 4: It'd be nice if you could actually put your.
9:29:42
Speaker 1: Fingers inside your thighs and message, so you can message
9:29:50
on the outside, of course, and to be able to
9:29:53
get deep into the muscles to be able to just
9:29:57
message inside your fie. Message in the bones of your.
9:30:03
Speaker 4: Leg massage in or the veins and just gently.
9:30:13
Speaker 1: Healing vibes.
9:30:19
Speaker 4: And you can move it down.
9:30:22
Speaker 1: Message and inside your knees. It's a message in those bones,
9:30:28
but with the healing fingertips spreading that healing.
9:30:34
Speaker 4: Energy deep into the choice your means. Of course, there's
9:30:45
the back of.
9:30:45
Speaker 1: Your you need the inside crease where your need is.
9:30:53
It's a really sensitive.
9:30:55
Speaker 4: Area, really looks really nice when you straight kid. That
9:31:01
might be because it's an area that's not really touched
9:31:05
very often. It's almost like a hidden part a crease
9:31:14
your legs.
9:31:15
Speaker 1: It's almost.
9:31:17
Speaker 4: It's like a part that has a sensitivity, which is
9:31:22
a little bit different because it's protected by your legs.
9:31:40
It's what you imagine putting the fingers.
9:31:44
Speaker 1: Into that crease on your legs, folded in between your legs,
9:31:55
you can just message with your fingertips.
9:31:58
Speaker 4: Imagine your fingertips.
9:31:59
Speaker 1: Going inside, massage in the muscle tissue. You can of
9:32:10
course feel the bones.
9:32:13
Speaker 4: Of your knees heading through your fingertips, and then you
9:32:25
should go down to your calf muscles and that's the
9:32:31
part I'd like to be able to really put my
9:32:34
fingertips deep inside my calf muscles, massage in every single
9:32:44
tissue that muscle, healing every part, and then doing the
9:32:56
same for.
9:32:57
Speaker 1: My chhins, massage in gently stroking the bones, gently stroking.
9:33:07
Speaker 4: Them, healing their loving way, because.
9:33:11
Speaker 1: They deserves to be treated as the precious bones.
9:33:18
Speaker 12: That they are.
9:33:20
Speaker 4: Our legs are so precious as in all the other
9:33:23
parts of our body.
9:33:27
Speaker 1: And more precious of immature.
9:33:31
Speaker 4: On the planet.
9:33:40
Speaker 1: When you start to.
9:33:43
Speaker 4: Think about your legs in this way, can you change
9:33:54
your perspective? It might sound it's silly to start with
9:34:06
the idea of heaven love for your legs. Show an
9:34:11
appreciation you advis wants me to be able to put
9:34:19
your hands in your.
9:34:22
Speaker 1: Eyes, the message the muscles and the bones, and.
9:34:30
Speaker 4: You get your fingers deep in their, releasing all attension,
9:34:38
just to show how much you care about your legs.
9:34:48
Much you care for what your links do for you regularly,
9:34:56
your knees.
9:34:57
Speaker 1: Your cars of ankles, the strength of your ankles, considering
9:35:10
how thin they are compared to the rest of your legs,
9:35:15
especially your eyes. Yeah, they're so so long, so alexible,
9:35:28
absolutely amazing things.
9:35:32
Speaker 4: The ankles are truly a gift.
9:35:40
Speaker 1: Because of what they do for you, supporting all that weight,
9:35:51
regardless of how what weight you are, even if you're
9:35:56
only eight stones.
9:36:00
Speaker 4: Oh I'm not weak and look like course now I'm
9:36:07
I'm not heavy that eats them double back. Yet my
9:36:14
own course support my body.
9:36:18
Speaker 12: All the time. What do they do?
9:36:24
Speaker 4: Keep on the side whom that you want to sit down?
9:36:29
That's okay, well next to my deep people say the
9:36:39
toast happen. I'm so happy.
9:37:02
Speaker 1: The legs.
9:37:04
Speaker 4: Really are amazing, and I then have to talk about
9:37:12
they talk about your legs is probably possibly if I'm
9:37:17
one of the most most bolling things I've ever heard
9:37:21
anyone say.
9:37:23
Speaker 1: Possibly.
9:37:26
Speaker 4: The boy or not.
9:37:29
Speaker 1: Everything I said is true. The legs are amazing. Your
9:37:44
legs deserve not just respect, They deserve.
9:37:54
Speaker 4: To relax deeply. They deserve to take some time out
9:38:07
of the day they just le grow completely. The legs
9:38:36
really can relax because the legs are so such a nice,
9:38:50
very important part in your body. The election makes the
9:38:57
rest of your body also.
9:39:00
Speaker 1: Naturally follows in that journey of comfort.
9:39:17
Speaker 4: I can feel it in my hips. My hips fill
9:39:21
really loose and also my lwer back as well, my
9:39:29
lawer back even it was it be stretched, even though
9:39:35
I'm just sitting in a chair and there's no stretching
9:39:41
as far as my aware that I'm doing. It's almost
9:39:44
as if the muscles are just relaxed so much, but
9:39:48
there is a natural stretch as a tension has reduced
9:39:57
a lot.
9:40:14
Speaker 12: An Now they.
9:40:15
Speaker 4: Camped down ten thouns a one and you continue.
9:40:25
Speaker 12: To feel.
9:40:27
Speaker 4: Wonder nine eight six, five four three h m hm hmmm.
9:41:08
Speaker 1: One. Really, I'm just gonna countdown and fire down to one.
9:41:28
And as a countdown you just focus.
9:41:31
Speaker 4: On the numbers, just the numbers counting down. I notice
9:41:40
how you feel in this moment as you hear the
9:41:48
numbers counting down, knowing that those numbers counting down represents
9:41:57
mm hmm. Then calm, not just in your body that
9:42:06
will say.
9:42:09
Speaker 3: Next in your mind.
9:42:13
Speaker 4: I'm just noticing, you shall there's nothing to do, there's
9:42:18
nothing to say, there's nothing to think about. Starting ye
9:42:28
number five four three two.
9:43:04
Speaker 1: What did you notice the gradual.
9:43:22
Speaker 4: Letting go.
9:43:25
Speaker 1: With the tension in your body. It may also begin
9:43:32
to notice and be aware of how your mind is
9:43:40
starting to slow down.
9:43:45
Speaker 4: This is just a natural thing that happens. It's not
9:43:52
really a special procedure. It's just natural because it's your
9:43:58
body relaxes. Of mind also starts to relax and the
9:44:04
more microlaxes, the more the body relaxes. Just the continuous.
9:44:10
Speaker 1: Circle of relaxation. And it is that harmness that comes
9:44:21
from relative quietness.
9:44:26
Speaker 4: You know, you can even if this background sounds either
9:44:31
your side online, it's still going to be quite, can't.
9:44:39
You know you haven't got the television on, there's no
9:44:42
music in the background unless you're listening to the record
9:44:46
the whitmusic of use. You're very likely not going to
9:44:54
