#1042 - Its Hot - Let me bore you to sleep

Hello and welcome to a sweaty forehead. Welcome to Let Me Bore You To Sleep. My name is Jason Newland and my website is jasonnewland.com. Please only listen when you can safely close your eyes and this light shining right in my face is a little bit too bright.

But hey never mind eh? Yeah so I'm doing this video and podcast Saturday the 8th of September I think. 2023 and Vinnie's underneath the table eating something. I'm not quite sure what it is but my neighbor gave it to him and it's something that I don't want to touch.

It's um yeah looks like a tail of some kind so yeah I'm just going to keep well away from that. Other than that this morning I walked with him he's under there all the way to the pharmacy to collect my friend's prescription and it wasn't there. It wasn't there.

It took me an hour to get there and an hour to get back. I basically it must have took an hour because I got there at two minutes or three minutes to 9 a.m and I got back here at 10 o'clock and I wasn't in there for long probably four minutes maybe five minutes. A long walk long old walk and I wasn't walking slowly either that's what's weird.

I'm not sure why it took quite so long to do the journey I mean I didn't feel like I was walking slowly not really but maybe I was. Maybe I was. I'm thinking maybe possibly I could get that light out of my eyes because maybe have it a bit higher so it's shining down on me rather than right in my face.

So I'm going to click this. I don't know if that's worked or not. I find I've shown it up a little bit so the light's shining off the ceiling.

I don't know I just don't want it shining right in my eyes because it was a little bit too much. It doesn't matter so much when I'm doing a hypnosis recording because I've got my eyes shut a lot of the time when I'm doing that but these let me I do have my eyes open whence during the process. You know what about two minutes ago as soon as I started to set this equipment up to do recording Vinnie's on my case to go O.U.T. for a walk and I can't believe it.

He's just had two hours outside but there was parts of the journey I actually carried him because he was so tired and now I don't know what time it is.

Let's have a look okay we've been back an hour and a half I've just got a text from my friend here's a story and it's not it's not particularly happy story so you might want to fast forward a few minutes if you don't want to hear this but my friend who I've known since 2006 so it's a few years well 18 years 17 years and she she actually first came to me for pain relief came to me for pain relief when I was doing the pain relief free pain hypnosis service

so she traveled all the way from quite a few miles to come and see me and I think she had rsd in her hands or something like that srd rsd rds one of them and we just stayed friends really it was a free service didn't pay me anything so it wasn't like a professional well not really a professional situation and so we stayed friends and she's become one of my closest friends over the years and she's got a boyfriend or fiance that's really lovely as well great bloke I actually even

went on holiday with them a couple of years ago so anyway anyway last week he because she's she's a woman he's he's a boy's fiance he fell off a ladder and you know quite quite badly well injured you know injured sort of disabled for the next six weeks kind of nothing serious but broken bones and that so he was taken to hospital she went to the hospital with him or she met him there because I think he had to get an ambulance because he was at a different place anyway she

got ill and collapsed in the hospital and they said they kept her in like for a few hours and said oh you're fine you're okay just high blood pressure you're fine so they sent her home so he's at home she's at home the next morning she gets rushed to a hospital having had a brain hemorrhage she had a brain and so she had a brain operation everything and she's recovering now as I said it's not a happy story but it's just really weird the way things go and she is in

post-operative recuperation so her fiance wasn't able to visit her the day that she had the operation but the next day he went to visit her because he's not down as next of kin her dad is so they wouldn't let him in which is weird they're practically married they live together hey and he goes to visit her yesterday or Thursday whatever day it was he collapses and ends up staying in hospital overnight and they gave um he low he's got apparently it just they said low blood pressure or whatever he just

texted me saying he's got lung he's got a water on his lungs and I don't know that's probably maybe caused from the accident you know he pierced his lung maybe with a rib or something I guess I didn't really I can't really communicate with him because he's at the bedside of of his fiance my friend at the moment at the hospital it's like wow so like one thing seemed to trigger the next thing which then seemed to trigger the next thing so my friend was so upset and worried about him

that it seemed to trigger her to have a funny turn but it wasn't a funny turn was it there was nothing funny about it and it wasn't just a turn it was serious and weird just really weird so and there's nothing I can do to help I want to help but what can you do I don't live anywhere near her and I do need to visit but I can't get there at the moment I'm not going to be able to go anywhere till Wednesday when I get paid so uh it's

weird it's like what can I do they're both laid up and anyway I'll move on from that I just it's not a very relaxing story was it like oh I felt like I'm only going to get him messages saying please Jason can you tell more stories like that anything about medical emergencies it really relaxes me oh yeah I realize this is kind of like my own journal as well you know I mean it's not my journal that wasn't my experience but it was just weird because nearly everybody that I know

in real life that I have regular contact with is ill one of my other best friends has got COPD like really really bad you go as bad as you can get it pretty much and another person's it's all my you know family members got um an illness well a couple of family members got an illness my cousin is now disabled and other stuff that I can't I can't mention anything about you know online but it's like weird just anyway it's very hot today very hot so I will move on from

that conversation it's just things like that get me thinking get me just wondering you know it's like wow just even though I've been alive for centuries I just I still can't get my head around it really you know can't quite grasp this whole thing just what thing Jason what thing everything I can't I don't I just don't understand a single thing it's terrible he's eaten every inch of that thing it's completely gone wow he's now looking around for crumbs on the floor blimey he did two poos today when we were

walking now I realize you might not want to know that but compared to the other stuff I was talking about hearing his bowel movements is probably a bit of a light entertainment really isn't it two like one after another I mean not not all at the same time because I would class that as one even if he did one I picked it up and then he did another one you know that's one poo really I mean I don't know what would what I'd recognize as two maybe if he moved to

a different part of the grass I guess technically that would be two then for me really if I have to use two bags then it's two poos yeah I think that's where I am with that but he didn't want to do a poo last night I think this is the only recording I will never get anyone complain about me talking about him pooing because it's such such a relief that we're talking about something nice it's almost like a subject isn't it after brain hemorrhages and stuff like that it does it

just makes me think like wow I need to I really need to make the most out of being young and sexy you know 30 years too late for that but hey wow can you believe that I used to be 20 33 years ago I was 20 33 years and when I look out with my weird eyes and I look at somebody I don't think of myself as being 53 and I don't I can't see well I can't see through their eyes but I can't even imagine them seeing me as being

an old man an old man and I know there's plenty of people watching or listening to this that may be older than me and thinking well it's not old well thank you thank you very much although my dad came down for my birthday a couple of weeks ago two weeks today actually so it's the 26th of August for those of you that didn't actually send me any birthday presents or or cards maybe you know remember for next year hey and I he came down we had lunch and as we were

walking back to the car to get my birthday cake because I'm still only 12 years old still get a birthday cake and money he still gives me money I'm 53 years old and my dad still gives me money I'm basically I'm a disappointment I think I've got to be a disappointment to him because you know I should be giving him stuff I should be looking after him and he might need me to look after him soon or you know next few years he's nearly 80 now and he's got some medical

conditions and which I can't talk about because he would not be happy if I did so I won't but he gives me money like I'm a little kid and you know what when I'm sitting there with him I feel like a little kid I don't feel like an adult I don't know about the rest of you when you're with your parents if you if you if you still have parents or whatever I just don't feel my age and I had the same thing when I was with my nan but you

know she passed away in 2015 now he's talking about death I'm not talking about death I'm just saying she she she's um I haven't seen her for a few years obviously and so I was 44 so all the way up to the age of 44 I would be visiting her and I always felt like a little kid when I was with her she was my nanny my nanny Newland and I always felt I didn't feel like a teenager even I just felt like a little kid and you know before she

was kind of disabled she'd still like make me cups of tea and make me sandwiches and um she used to have rock cakes which she'd make and she made the best rock cakes in the whole world I know because I've traveled the world and I've tasted every single rock cake on the planet and mine then was the so try and argue with that so just I miss all that I do it was sometimes it was the only time I could feel sometimes the only time that I felt safe is when

I was with her emotionally safe because I knew that I was being looked after and I knew that there was the familiarity of going back to the same house that she lived in back before she moved out of there and the same atmosphere the rooms is pretty much the same as it's always been the kitchens are same as it's been for decades the bedrooms are the same the gardens the same everything's you know there's something about things staying the same I think we all need something to stay the same I

know it's like everything changes but it's nice to have some things stay same-ish you know like stability I think that's why I like trees so much a weird jump isn't it your grandmother and now you're talking about trees how many different subjects is he going to get through in this recording probably a few um the good thing about the good thing about trees is you can have a tree when you're a little you know if it's grown fully grown and you can revisit that tree if it's like in a forest

or maybe it's in a garden or somewhere that you can visit and you can still visit that tree when you're 60 and it's still there and there's something I quite like about that continuity you know the it's still there and maybe some people watching this or listening to this kind of because I've seen some of the comments that people make on YouTube and uh like positive comments about me about my videos from the past and like some people are pleased to see me back when I come and do a video

on YouTube people that used to follow me 10 years ago which is phenomenal really I mean I'm just I don't want to use the word blessed because it sounds weird to me but yeah I'm blessed it's I don't know it's all I feel like I'm special I'm not special I'm blessed but it's nice it is nice I do like it and the problem I've got with videos I'll be honest because you know I really am honest so every now and then I like to say something honest I tell the truth

I try and tell the truth at least three times a year and there's still two more to go and it's only September so I don't know how I'm going to last I'm going to have to try and find two other things to be honest about before December I love lying lying is so wonderful making up stuff is great now I don't really lie I do I do lie but I lie when I make recordings I don't lie in real life because there's not one thing worth lying about there's nothing to

there's no reason because I don't care what anyone else thinks I don't need to impress anybody at all there's no one in the world to impress the only people I want to impress is someone that I see maybe that I'm that I find super attractive and they're out of my league and nothing I do is going to impress them even if I start doing handstands and I have tried that I've tried doing handstands doesn't always get the response I'm looking for especially as I can't do handstands never could really I

used to end up literally standing on my head I'd fall on my head hear a big crack I'd fall over and everyone would laugh everyone but me and they'd be laughing and then all the laughter would drown out my screaming for help call an ambulance I look at him so it's I think trees I was talking about trees wasn't I yeah the thing is I don't what I struggle with making videos and why I favour making audio podcasts which is why I've got this microphone to do the audio as well

but I'm also going to pair the audio with the video hopefully but at least if the video camera stops I've got the audio or if the audio stops sometimes who knows what power cut or whatever I'll at least got the video so I can then extract the audio from the video so it kind of gives me a double protection a double bagging kind of thing kind of so I don't the reason I'm not really into videos is one of the reasons is because I don't like how I look okay and

I'm not doing this because I want compliments because any compliment would be a false compliment because I can see how I look I know what I look like oh you look fine no I don't I look awful but this is just the way I've ended up it's just the way it is but the thing is for those people that watch me if they're going to watch regularly they'll get used to how I look so it won't even notice it anymore and with the hypnosis recordings you should have your eyes closed

anyway not staring at my weird nose it should be my big red face you should be focusing on the recording and if you're listening to this watching this Let Me Bore You To Sleep to go to sleep then again you wouldn't be watching the video would you you'd be having your eyes closed and getting very bored very bored indeed I don't know what Vinnie's just found but he's so tell you what's weird okay this is weird I've moved the desks over here now by saying over here you don't know what

that means how can you because the desk was over there now it's here I don't mean on the ceiling it was over there and that's where I did the audios now I couldn't do videos because if I turned the camera around all you would see would be the window and the messy table near the window so what I've done is I wanted to have the background as my books they're not all you can't see all the books there's other books that aren't on there but I've been organizing things into sections

and so yesterday in the real proper heat properly and I was looking after two dogs well I was looking after Vinnie he's here anyway but I'm looking after my friend's dog so and I was moving furniture around and all this stuff and I was I was sweating I was I was sweating internally seriously and um wow but yeah it's weird isn't it being able to rinse out your underpants just after like going for a walk that's that's hot it's a hot day then putting them back on again of course so

I did all that so I moved everything over here so I've got a decent backdrop I've got my books they're the things if you know anything about me you know I love my books and I've there's more than what you can see I don't want you to think that's the only all the books I've got but there's loads up there and up there and everything but they're all organized into different sections so you've got the clinical hypnosis books you've got the Ericksonian hypnosis books up there you've got the NLP books

over there somewhere Richard Bandler Grinder books there is the self-hypnosis books there's the hypnosis for children books there's a hypnosis for chronic pain books and there's just a general hypnosis books over there somewhere and then you've got books that are for like different things different issues over there somewhere so yeah there's a lot lots of different things different sections I didn't need to do that I don't really know why but once once I get started on something I seem to just have to stick at it you know anyway when I

had my desk over there which was literally yesterday and I'd make a recording it was always audio I didn't do a video from over there and I'd start the recording and he the little one under the desk now I won't say the name would hassle me constantly yet when I'm sitting at this desk because this is where I do my work the not work but the internet stuff you know working on a website editing just things like that doesn't bother me at all he just sits under the desk chomps away

or just goes to sleep under there resting against my feet over there he he won't do that but so there's something about being here that he likes and the fact that he's leaving me to make a recording not just audio recording but a video he's I don't think he's ever done that not for a long time a few few months back he did go to sleep and he sort of stayed asleep the rest of the time when I make the Let Me Bore You To Sleep recordings if he's in the

room I have to give him something to chew on otherwise he would just whine and whine at me like yeah take me out on the way or whatever I said the word out that gets him every time uh but yeah he's what's that is this one fly that's been following me around about 32 years um so I so that one of the reasons I didn't don't the videos is I don't really I don't look I don't I'm not enjoying looking older I never ever looked at the video really like even

when I was younger because I've been doing this for since 2006 I never um never looked at a video and thought wow oh now that's one saucy young man you know I never I never had that never kind of thought that and when I did make videos either the video quality wasn't very good or the audio wasn't very good or both now I've kind of got a situation where both is pretty good and because of the technology now because you can use my phone and make a video which I normally

do but I've had this camera for a while but I've always had a little bit of a just is this using the software to make the video and all that stuff but I've kind of figured out how to do that now so it should be a little bit easier and to to mix the audio and the video together should be fine so I've kind of I've been using the Adobe software and I've got my head around how to use it now because I've been making videos on there and I kind

of I was never very pleased with the end results of the videos because they were like a bit blurry maybe a bit the sound was a bit crappy and like and now that everything's a lot much better quality than it used to be I realized that the benefits of the other videos was you couldn't see me properly now it's too clear it's and that's not good it's not a good thing so it's just a personal thing but then you know what I've been watching there's a couple of people that I

watch on YouTube and they're both elderly men I say elderly but probably in their late 60s 70s maybe but older than me anyway I mean I don't want to some people in their 70s don't want to be called elderly so I apologize but um old older than me if you can believe such a thing exists older even than me and these two particular people make videos that aren't good quality like video footage so they're filming maybe on their phone the lighting's not very good even the sound is not necessarily perfect

but thousands of people watch them because they make regular videos and obviously they've got an audience that like what they do including me or interested in what they do uh I mean one is actually I don't know he just makes me laugh a bit because he's he says stuff that he's just there's a bit out of order so it makes me laugh and it's I like to hear sometimes I don't know I like to hear different people's opinions because it amuses me sometimes and anyway and I thought you know what

maybe maybe I'll stop trying to I'm not going to try and make like super super professional videos you know no special effects nothing like that but I will record so if I'm thinking I'll make a video like this and well we've got 36 minutes so I'll make a video and then put it together put a little bit of a you know introduction a very short introduction thing but just you know basically what it is and and upload it and hopefully hopefully that'll be enough and then what I'll start doing is

I'll start making hypnosis videos as well just basically doing exactly the same thing every time recording to the microphone video film put them together edit it and upload it which is I guess what most YouTubers do but they put a bit more effort into the production side so I'm not going to put I'm not going to put no effort in but I'd rather have my effort put into the production you know the actual content rather than making I mean it's the old saying isn't it you can't polish a turd so

you know it is what this is and I don't think any amount of special effects is going to improve it or make it worse it's just it is what it is um so it's Saturday today I couldn't believe it's that can you believe this right this is even this I'm sharing this with you because I just it's almost it's funny all right ask me so my bank balance on my phone 13 pence 13 pence I can't really show it to you because without showing you my bank details but 13 pence

53 years to make 13 pence how much is that a year wow anyway there you go I'll laugh in it let's see I'll laugh about in the future so why wait let's laugh about it now in it I've got enough milk in the fridge for a few days a couple of days at least two three days uh got enough tea bags and coffee I do like a nice cup of tea you know I went pretty much apart from apart from when I was working yeah I didn't drink tea hardly ever

pretty much since since leaving school didn't really drink tea I'd have tea for visiting me then or for visiting me dad I'd have a cup of tea I didn't really have tea if I went out I'd have coffee if it was in a coffee place if I go to a burger place you know I'm talking over the years not not this week but you know I'd have you know have a coke or I'd have a milkshake or something some jobs if there was a coffee machine or a tea machine I'd

have coffee or tea sometimes I'd have a cup of tea because it you know a little thing it tastes nice maybe nice and sweet and I'd you know change it around or I'd have a coffee when I worked in the call center I wonder if there was a coffee machine in all three of the places there was definitely one in the last place because I remember because I remember getting a coffee there it was literally if you get out of my desk I just you know push the chair out turn

right and just go straight up that's where the coffee machine was I didn't know it was there before mind you I hadn't been in the building before I started working there the first place definitely had a coffee machine because I used to get a coffee every time I got a sale because I used to sell car insurance so every time I got every time I got a sale you know an order whatever you want to call it I don't know why I'm moving my fingers around like that that's me typing

so every time I got a sale I would get a coffee should I say it one more time just to make it the six times every time I got a sale I got a coffee and I'd also get up and put the thing on the board write down the number or whatever now because there was a period when I was doing quite well and I was getting well I was basically having way too many coffees because I was doing me too I was having too many sales well not too many

sales but I was drinking too much coffee I shouldn't have had that much coffee and it affected me in a not a great way not a great way no the second place oh there was a coffee machine yeah I think there was on this there was a like a little staff room tiny little thing I think there was a coffee machine in there I think oh there was yeah there was also a coffee machine in this little room in the sales department yeah there was a coffee machine in there that's

it yeah I find it hard to remember it's a long time ago I mean that second job was I left there in 2007 in the summer and I left the first insurance sales job in November 2003 so it's nearly 20 years ago in two months time I'll have left there 20 years ago wow time and the weird thing about it is I still remember certain people that I worked with I still remember Sian, I still remember Aaron,

I still remember Alex I still remember you know people that I worked with like 20 years ago it doesn't seem like 20 years ago you hear his mate he's moaning now why are you moaning Vinnie this is going to be a shorter record than a normal because he's moaning he wants to I don't know what he wants I think he might want to go out do you want to go out you're going to garden do a wee wee well if you want food then there's food in the bowl yeah I'll

tell you what's weird about Vinnie do you want to go out do you want this do you want this give me cuddles my cuddles give me cuddles do you want cuddles there's something about this little doggie everybody likes him I don't know if it's the way he looks up and stares with his big brown eyes I don't know and he because he's so little I don't know what it is not just dog owners and dog walkers even like in the pharmacy everywhere in the petrol station they fuss over him people

walk up to me in the park and say hello Vinnie to him they don't know me don't know my name and I don't know their dog's name hey shut up shut your mouth um yeah so as you can hear him he's not barking so I don't think the noise is too too noisy so I'm going to go thank you for listening remember to be kind to yourself because you deserve to be happy be gentle with yourself lots of love and I will be back again tomorrow hopefully I'm also going to

be making regular videos regular hypnosis videos deep sleep whispers relaxing sleep hypnosis daily sleepy boring objects you name it I'm going to be making those and even if they come out terrible what's it matter I mean it does matter to me but hopefully it'll be all right I might have to put him into the bedroom next time I do a video though because this is it's just not acceptable now and he won't let me pick him up so I can't show you if I could pick him up and show him

to you then you can kind of get to see him but he won't as soon as I reach down he runs off okay he didn't run off that time but you know generally no he did that time so I'm gonna go have a great weekend wherever you are and I'll speak to you next time and also don't forget or do forget or don't remember to forget or forget to remember the I have a boring face group page which is a private page but you can just join if you want it's
