[00:02:40] nothing that's everything I've just um subscribed for another month with the website app what is it called Readly Unlimited Magazine so renewed on the 8th of May
[00:03:13] I haven't looked at it for a while ehh probably not going to go through the newspapers right now but I thought I might go through a magazine have a look at some magazines yeah a magazine so I have a couple little things I have I deleted my my SoundCloud
[00:03:42] podcast and got a little bit of a backlash for that so I have reinstated it managed to get hold of them and they've put it back on so the SoundCloud podcast is up and healthy with all the recordings that were on there a few days ago when I got rid of it and blimey
[00:04:12] according to this it's getting quite a few downloads actually I guess now it's back up so how many recordings are on there? there's 4769 tracks so 4769 downloads available I mean if that is that does include ones with music ones without music and all that but that's still a heck of a lot isn't it? that's a lot
[00:04:42] you know how many followers I got? 29! 29 followers! god imagine once I've got like a million tracks on there I might have like a hundred followers so yeah I've done a new recording today it's Let Me Boy Paying Away number 34 relaxing body part and and I ended up talking about my friend putting ice cream all over his face
[00:05:13] I'm not quite sure how that fits into the recording but I've been doing them and they've been quite quite scientific lately so I thought I'd do one which is a little bit more I don't know a little bit more playful perhaps so I did that today basically it's just focusing on a part of your body that feels fine so you choose different parts, two different parts of your body
[00:05:42] one that feels absolutely fine and the other part that's the where the chronic pain is I realise someone might have chronic in more than one part but just focus on two different parts to start with and that's all it is and I just chat while going between the different parts of the body it's a it's not like a a new a new idea because I've done that recording before
[00:06:13] well I've not done that exact recording before but I have done recordings doing that like that technique but that would have been like a hypnosis session this wasn't hypnosis so when I do the let me bore your pain away or let me bore you to sleep it's not hypnosis it's just me chatting and with the pain let me bore your pain away
[00:06:43] it's I think they're quite good actually in a weird way because they are focused so I did one about placebo the other day and yeah very focused oh do you want to see this? you don't want to see it I'll read it to you I've got this text message today right from the GP surgery this was at
[00:07:13] 1.34 this afternoon it was a bit weird okay so dear Mr Newland and in you know you can see in the in the message section you can just see a little bit of the of the text there is a small risk of so I'm thinking what? what the heck's going on? so I open it up this is genuine I'm going to read this out to you
[00:07:42] dear Mr Newland there is a small risk of conditions that affect how the brain functions so I'm reading this out thinking what? like wait what what? in a child fathered by you I thought that's a bit rude isn't it? it's a little bit rude but then I read on while on valproate
[00:08:10] which is the mood stabilizer or within 3 months of stopping while on valproate or within 3 months of stopping it is advised that you do not donate sperm and do not father a child during this time and you and your partner should use effective contraception
[00:08:40] during this period do not stop taking valproate unless advised by a healthcare professional wow you know what? ok fair enough it's come to me I mean I can't even remember I'm going to have to look up some of them words professional that's one word I'll have to look up
[00:09:11] affective I don't know what that means contraception and sperm so yeah there's a few words that I'm going to have to brain that's another one small I understand that so brain functions oh yeah brain functions got it what if I was pregnant with a kid you know what if I yeah ok this is going out probably just around and just generally
[00:09:40] these text messages are going out to every male on these medication now it's already I say well known but it's it was already a thing it says on the box that pregnant women should not take the tablets but what about people that are men that have got babies on the way
[00:10:07] you know do they think that that's something that needs a little bit of a little bit of gentleness doesn't it you know or someone is going through IBF or I don't know just someone that doesn't want to have to use a Johnny I don't know it just seems weird just that they would because it's quite ehh ehh ooooh
[00:10:36] there's a message here let's read this let's listen to this it's actually a message that was me apparently so I tried to send a message back to them I don't remember
[00:11:06] addressing anything weird I was on the toilet just now well not just now but about half an hour ago so I'm just relaxing I find that's the best way to proceed with the little adventure that sometimes occurs so I'm just relaxing letting everything just you know do its thing and my phone goes my phone rings
[00:11:36] now I normally have my phone on mute but for some reason oh yeah because I phoned someone and I wanted to get it ring if they call back so I had the phone on mute I didn't I thought I had the phone on mute because I normally don't and it started ringing Vinny's barking I was like okay here we go but I'm on the toilet but it might be important
[00:12:06] and I'm thinking what time is it? because if once it's after five o'clock it's not going to be it's not going to be the council it's not going to be like an official phone call not that I get many official phone calls but just you know it's not going to be something like that it's not going to be from the doctor's surgery but then it rang again
[00:12:36] what? so I'm kind of I'm doing what I would normally do quite slowly quite quickly I word it like that and I just ruined the moment I should just explain I was going to the toilet just in case but yeah I mean and I answer the phone
[00:13:06] and it's just my neighbour telling me that we've got a new Pope I said do you realise you're giving me to hear I thought it was an emergency and the reason I answered it because when I saw it was him I answered because you know he might be asking for help because he's an elderly neighbour he's only a few years younger than me and I'm like no so now I've got a sore bum and you just want to tell me that we've got a new Pope
[00:13:36] the first words were are you watching this? I said am I watching what? what do you mean am I watching it? what am I supposed to be watching? I don't I didn't understand what he was on about we've got a new Pope and he's American I said you don't need to like so? what's wrong with he's American? it doesn't make any difference we've had Popes from all over the world in the past
[00:14:06] I should know I did a whole hour and a half or two hours talking about Popes the other week blimey we've had Popes we've had seven year old Popes people that are seven years old we've had Popes that have just yeah had all kinds of different Popes there's been an English Pope in the past there's been German Popes French Popes Polish Popes Italian Popes I guess that's kind of obvious
[00:14:35] but yeah like American Pope born in Illinois did a little Wikipedia search ten minutes ago just to just have a little look I was mildly interested you know it's not really anything to do with me but it's useful it's you know I guess it's nice to know innit like if the Dalai Lama
[00:15:05] ever got replaced or when he gets replaced in the future that'll be you know be interesting to see who that is it'll probably be a kid so yeah Dalai Lama's been Dalai Lama for about I wonder how long the Dalai Lama Dalai Lama how long has he been in he was born in 1935
[00:15:35] and is recognised as a reincarnation of the 13th Dalai Lama at the age of 2 just been a Dalai he's been a Dalai Lama since he was 2 didn't even have an opportunity to like question it you're the Dalai Lama really? yeah you're the Dalai Lama how do I mean yeah even if you was 10 you'd be like how do you know? I mean good you know
[00:16:05] do I get a crown? you know brilliant but how do you know? apparently there's another bloke who believed and I think there's a few million people out there that believe that someone else should be the Dalai Lama as well so in the wake of the Alasa uprising and Chinese consolidation of power across Tibet
[00:16:33] tens of thousands of Tibetans followed the Dalai Lama into exile in 1960 he established his government in exile in Dharmashala a former British hill station in the Indian state of Himachal Pradesh where he continues to reside oh he's in India I didn't know that a former British hill station what's a hill station?
[00:17:04] I mean there's 10,000 people on a hill I genuinely don't know what a hill station is just I mean I've heard of petrol stations I've heard of train stations I've heard of bus stations I've never heard of a hill station don't tell me you have either don't
[00:17:31] is there any hill station in the UK? indisputably one of the UK's favourite hill walking locations right what's a hill station? a hill station is a town located at a higher elevation than the nearby plain or valley the English term was originally used mostly in colonial Asia
[00:17:59] but also in Africa albeit rarely for towns founded by European colonists colonists colonists as refugees from the summer heat and as Dow Kennedy observes about the Indian context the hill station was seen as an exclusive British preserve wow that seems a bit rude isn't it?
[00:18:29] like so the English would go there to escape from the summer heat or the Europeans should let everyone that's just rude I thought it would be hotter though if you were high up because the higher up you are the closer to the sun you are seems logical to me anyway it says
[00:18:59] what is the Dalai Lama famous for? and hmm so I'm just going to look at some other stuff it's all not Buddhists there's more to know what is the Dalai Lama what is the Dalai Lama's philosophy? he says that as a human being we are all the same we all want happiness and do not want suffering
[00:19:28] even people who have no religious belief can benefit if they incorporate these human values into their lives his wholeness refers to such human values as secular ethics or universal values it's very hard to really argue with that I would say but what is the Dalai Lama famous for? for being the Dalai Lama it's like what's the king famous for? for being the king what was the queen famous for?
[00:19:57] for being the queen what is David Beckham famous for? he's famous for being David Beckham he was famous for being a footballer but now he he exceeded football and became well he met his wife and became a double act and it became the Beckhams superstars worldwide I don't know about worldwide
[00:20:26] if he goes to Tibet would they know him in Tibet? or wherever the Tibetans are hmmm are these questions can Buddhists drink milk? yes many Buddhists consume milk while Buddhist emphasis
[00:20:54] emphasizes compassion and avoiding harm it doesn't explicitly prohibit the consumption of milk some Buddhists follow a lacto-vegetarian diet allowing dairy but excluding other animal products the decision to include or exclude milk from one's diet is often a personal one with some choosing to avoid dairy due to concerns about animal welfare or health and what is Nirvana?
[00:21:33] see Nirvana literally means blowing out or quenching it's the most it's the most used word as well as the earliest term to describe the soteriological goal in Buddhism and my more understanding is it's a release it says it here actually released from the cycle of rebirth so this is samsara being alive so the main
[00:22:01] the biggest goal of many many Buddhists so reaching enlightenment would be a non-returner so if someone reaches this is in Buddhism someone reaches enlightenment it means that they've basically broken all fetters they're no longer attached to anything and they're not affected by the worldly winds
[00:22:32] and I'm laughing at myself that way and they will no longer be reborn so this is the last time as a human so with rebirth it's kind of like there's a cycle a cycle what do they call it? the wheel of life and depending on how you are depending on what you've done in the past
[00:23:02] affects how you are now and how you are in the future is dependent upon how you act now so it's kind of some of it I struggle with if I'm honest because the idea of me coming back and almost being punished for what I did last time
[00:23:30] even though I have no recollection of last time or maybe the last thousand times just seems a little bit a little bit rude to be honest and yeah it's so complicated there's so much in different types of Buddhism think different things and I mean I sometimes occasionally dip
[00:23:59] into religion have a little look at some of the rules and I'm just blown away at the the purposeful self-limitation that some of these belief systems put on the practitioners but people take on these things and they I understand because religion I mean it I think I believe let's forget religion let's say belief system
[00:24:29] a belief system can transform someone's life and it can save their life and it can save the lives of people around them as well so it can be an amazing thing there's plenty of people that have been transformed because of taking on a belief system that's all already structured and sometimes I think it's because of the structure someone that has no structure
[00:24:59] someone that maybe struggles to put together any kind of normal structure in their own life perhaps needs rules to abide by and some faiths we call it faiths some faiths are so structured almost to the point of like they've got rules for everything
[00:25:29] and Buddhism's a little bit like that actually as well but in a different way you know it's not quite as it's not hardcore in a way I mean if you're a monk it is if you actually join a monastery there's so many rules that you have to go by and they're not rules that you can get away with
[00:25:57] you know you can't just like no one's watching it's because you're being watched the whole time because you're in a monastery so there are rules that monks pretty much have to have to stick to in the same way I'm sorry Buddhist monks but other monks as well they're very nuns and stuff they've got a lot of restrictions but yeah
[00:26:27] I don't know I mean I find it interesting and I do class I think I class myself as a Jasonist you know a juicy JJ ism that's my religion juicy JJ ism and I think I would say most probably every religion or faith or belief system
[00:26:56] has benefits has useful stuff for just the average person that a lay person someone it's just from a philosophical philosophical philosophical way if I could say the word philosophical I can say it I'm just messing around so philosophical and way it can be useful can
[00:27:26] Buddhists eat alcohol what what do you mean eat alcohol it's a weird question the fifth of five precepts Buddhist guidelines for an ethical life is to refrain from using intoxicants which I said to cause carelessness really yeah you're joking really see yeah I mean there's there's the precepts of a Buddhist and
[00:27:56] there's a basic precepts then you got the deeper you go into it the more precepts are which is basically rules to live by and which is ironic really because when you think about the the main rules the main rules so ten commandments so if we go okay here we go I'm gonna I'm gonna
[00:28:24] for some reason I've got interested in this so I'm just gonna go and say I'm gonna have a little chat with my my pal chat GPT I just subscribed again with the magazine thing and I'm not using it oh well I'll come back to that let's have a look let's have a little look so what I'm gonna do is ask the question
[00:28:54] hey chat GP describe me based introducing new improved memory chat PT chat chat chat GP I wish it was easier to say like it was just called chatty or something chat GPT because it doesn't run it doesn't like roll off the tongue does it chat GPT chat oh maybe it does chat PGT that would be easier chat P instead of chat G
[00:29:24] so I have to have a gap between the chat and the G but if it was P or T chat T I could just if it's chat T to be TPG it'd be easier anyway it can now remember more of our past chats to better personalize its responses want to chart change it so that it knows about you just ask enable oh yes so please
[00:29:57] everything you know about me let's see if it can remember anything so please tell me everything you know you know about me everything everything from memory listed let's see what's he going to give me
[00:30:26] what's he going to give me here's a detailed list of everything I know about you Jason Newland based on memory I grouped this into clear categories and numbered everything from easy reference for easy reference right here we go that wasn't what I came on here for was it I wanted okay I'll come back to I'll do this now I'm going to go back to the magazine I'm going to go back to the the religious stuff
[00:30:59] but when I do do religious stuff I try and be careful with it you know because I can talk about Buddhism because I know I would argue I know a fair bit about Buddhism as a whole you know as a subject I can converse about the subject I can converse I know a bit about Christianity I know a bit about because you know I was I was born in a Christian country
[00:31:30] so learning about the New Testament about Jesus and stuff that's been part of the social fragment you know this is part of society when I grew up and then my name was a Catholic devout Catholic and I at a period lived in two Catholic children's homes
[00:31:59] run by nuns Catholic nuns and also went to a Catholic school and was going to church twice a day because the church was in the garden so technically I suppose I probably I don't remember necessarily a lot of the details about Catholicism but I've got it in you know it's kind of in me some of that information and then I spent
[00:32:28] many many more years studying Buddhism and practicing Buddhism so here we go I've grouped this into clear categories and numbered everything for easy reference personal background your name is Jason Newland born 26th of August 1970 in Enfield London you live in the UK you are currently unemployed alright
[00:32:57] you got three brothers he's given me their dates and their names and their dates of birth blimey I don't remember telling anyone that you have a Jack Russell named Vinnie you used to have a ferret named Andre you are 5 foot 8 inches tall and weigh 100 kilograms you were diagnosed with bipolar affective disorder and emotionally unstable personality disorder well that's a nice identity isn't it
[00:33:27] you identify as a Buddhist although you haven't practiced actively for a few years you earn a BA honors degree in counseling studies in 2010 the people you are closest wow this is a weird one the people you are closest to have all died it's like wow your Nan Andre and your friend Luke who died in November 2023 I don't remember
[00:33:55] I mean I've mentioned these things but now it's saying family history it's got my dad your paternal like his full name your paternal grandfather his full name who passed away in 91 your paternal grandmother Eileen Newland Nanny Newland she died 28th September 2014 my uncle who passed away in 2020
[00:34:24] says stuff about my auntie and my cousins erm wow the second my father's second wife when they got married and when they unmarried third wife I really when they got I don't remember writing any of this stuff down
[00:34:53] unless it's going through my podcast transcripts I wouldn't have even said that then either I wouldn't have given the I never talk about I don't give surnames and stuff like that of my family and that okay okay you've been making hypnosis and boring podcasts since 2006 to help people relax and sleep
[00:35:20] you are a trained hypnotherapist and make recordings available online for free you run multiple podcast series including let me boil your sleep let me boil your pain away life of a bipolar hypnotist so that's a little secret one I don't tell anyone about is a podcast that I started and I did do one recording but it's quite serious if you know what I mean it's quite yes it's not erm
[00:35:50] I kind of took it offline the podcast is online but I took the recording offline so there's nothing on there I just I wasn't quite sure how to proceed with that one your hypnosis recordings are known for your gentle voice and style that help people fall asleep and deeply relax so you upload files of your recordings and are working on a book combining your life story and hypnosis work
[00:36:19] yeah I was trying to do that a while back you focus on relaxation pain relief and sleep and use NLP neuroscience and hypnosis techniques it's not doing too bad is it so far you create a 2 hour pain control hypnosis session for chemotherapy patients designed to trigger trance in response to discomfort did I erm
[00:36:47] you've been planning a podcast called let me ok I'll leave that one out because I'm not sure if I'm going to do that er right you also have explored placebo belief and neuroplasticity in chronic pain relief content I have I really have yeah your daily themes for let me boy to sleep are
[00:37:16] Monday's boring objects Tuesday Tuesday Friday Q&A Friday Sunday Sunday's papers or Sunday papers so although I've tried to do the whisper Wednesday as well er you've asked to help filling in themes for the other days of the week yeah I always I ask yeah I have
[00:37:43] you recently made a menopause themed episode for a listener combining humor facts and relaxation did I? I don't remember doing that you've created let me boy your pain away episodes you in science based science backed topics an example body scan pain reprocessing placebo that's why I feel a little bit I wouldn't use the word
[00:38:13] I don't really really have any pride I don't think especially not in my appearance but I'm kind of pleased with them I'm pleased that some people watch them or listen to them rather don't get huge amount of feedback but I'm they're the ones I probably it it's a subject and a topic that I'm really interested in and I have been for decades
[00:38:42] I mean all the way through the 2000s 2010s now through 2020s you know really in two years what's it now? 2025 so yeah in four years in four years time or three years time
[00:39:09] it will be 30 years that I've been interested in chronic pain relief I just didn't start really I mean I tried to launch a pain relief service in 2004 but nothing happened and then I did it again in 2006 and actually got takers and it kicked it sort of started off and went quite well
[00:39:37] so I did three pain relief service for chronic pain people in my local town and I did some pain relief with people before that as well but yeah so I've been interested in that subject because that's the first when I first learned about NLP I did I learned I started reading hypnosis books January 2000 January 1998
[00:40:07] and then before that I was listening to a couple of tapes on NLP NLP and NLP and hypnosis it's neurolinguistic programming and a big part of that is hypnosis was taken from hypnosis and then I did an NLP course at college in 1998
[00:40:35] and that really kind of got my juices going for with my whistle as it were for helping people with chronic pain because okay let's see we'll be honest here I think at the time I didn't have chronic pain I've got I do have arthritis now so I kind of have a bit of a bit of an understanding of what it's about but a little bit
[00:41:08] at the time I've seen people in the past that I wanted to help well I wish I could help you know you meet someone you think I wish I could do something but you can't it's like when I saw my granddad when he was ill I wish I could just I don't know I wish I could take it away take his illness away but I couldn't I didn't you know so I was a little bit like that with people with chronic pain and
[00:41:40] I suppose in a way once I discovered hypnosis and it was very it was very magical to me it wasn't it very it seemed like magic it didn't seem like something that was psychological it seemed really did seem like magic like proper wizardry stuff yeah and
[00:42:08] the idea of the idea that words can have an impact a positive impact and can help to change how somebody feels just from words now my my issues back then among
[00:42:38] a few issues but my not my mental health issues but my issues with helping people was confidence I wanted to help people right from the start right from like 98 when I first started reading the books during 99 2000 2001 2002 2003 I had no confidence to help people even though I'd been on hypnosis
[00:43:07] courses done hypnosis with students didn't feel confident and then I did a a hip and then I tried to do my 2004 thing and nothing happened there then in 2005 I went on a training course another hypnosis training course and the one thing I got from that was confidence I don't know why but I felt more confident
[00:43:39] and I came back from that course so that was 2005 and my friend Teresa she'd heard me going on about being a hypnotherapist or being a hypnotist and all this stuff since I met her in 2002 so she'd be hearing me going on about this she'd even been in my she'd been in my room
[00:44:08] when I was in the Buddhist centre in the the Buddhist centre the community Buddhist community so she'd seen all my books and I was all super excited to show her my book collection kind of big book collection back then and she did something that I never that I was just didn't think anyone would actually do she called me out on it she
[00:44:37] she called my bluff which I'm grateful for now at the time I wasn't because I was petrified and here's what happened this is totally like everyone it's like everyone around me got fed up with me talking about it and decided okay um um is it show up or shut up
[00:45:07] or whatever it is you know just like come on then let's let's see you do something and I it's like going around something oh I can I'm a great um break dancer or something and someone turned up with a one of those bits of lino so go on then spin on your head no I don't worry I was making it up all these years
[00:45:36] so what happened is Teresa phone me up I think I just got home from work or something she phone me up she said we might be in out for coffee or something and she said to me oh my friend wants to see you and I thought oh good which one is it she said no because I met a few other friends and no she doesn't want to see you like that she's you keep away from my friends I said alright she said uh
[00:46:06] my friend is she wants you to come and do some hypnosis and my heart sank I was like really because at this point I got to the I think I got to the point in my life where in 2005 I was happy just to talk about it I was happy to read hypnosis books for pleasure and I probably was never going to do anything with it that's where I was
[00:46:36] in 2005 and I was more interested I suppose I was sort of in the Buddhism you know I'd rather I didn't really want to be in a room with someone else and do hypnosis and I didn't feel I felt confident that I could do it but at the same time I kind of just I did go on the course it made me feel more confident but at the same time I just don't know if I really wanted to do it
[00:47:07] in reality I felt I was just happy just studying it and enjoying it anyway she put me on the spot she said I told my friend you're going to do it I said what? I said yeah it was someone she worked with this person was a trainee driving instructor had failed her driving instructor exam twice and this was the apparently the last time she could take it and she had to pass and it was
[00:47:38] like in three days time or four days time she said so what we do is she doesn't want to be in a room with you on her own which is it might sound weird but actually that can be quite normal she didn't really know me she'd met me a couple of times and I said well you come and sit in the room with her sit next to her and you come to my house you can sit next to each other on a settee
[00:48:08] you can just ignore what I'm saying and I'll just talk to her so that's what we did I had no idea what I was going to do bearing in mind this was not chronic pain this was not this was a completely different thing this is the very first I'm not going to say professional because I didn't get paid it wasn't professional but it was the very first actual therapy
[00:48:37] or the first hypnosis session I'd ever done with someone that I either didn't know personally or wasn't you know wasn't on a training course with them so and on a training course you're limited to what you can do because you just got to do read the script and stuff so this was very different anyway it went well I did not have gone well but it seemed to go well in the night we spent about an hour and a half together
[00:49:08] and she passed her driving test her driving exam test driving instructor test whatever so she became a driving instructor started her own business and everything for a while she was sending me clients who had driving tests coming up I even did a group once I think I did a group of a few of her her students but
[00:49:39] that forced me it was annoying at the time because I just didn't know what I was going to do it's like I knew it I knew but didn't have the experience it's you know I know about hypnosis I probably know it quite well I couldn't necessarily explain it in any kind of a
[00:50:07] way that would be learnable from the listener I don't know if the person listening would learn anything from what I was saying but I kind of feel that I understand it in quite a deep way kind of I might not but I think I do and she so my friend like Teresa she got her friend and that was good
[00:50:37] so that was a nice little buzz the next thing I know the manager of the shop who I got on really well with I used to go into she worked in a card shop so Teresa worked in a card shop so the person she was working with was the future driving instructor the owner of the card shop I used to have a laugh with because he was I'd go in there probably once a week over a period of time
[00:51:07] go out for lunch with Teresa or go you know on my lunch break so I got to know him a little bit not well but enough to sort of say hello and stuff and have a laugh well probably two weeks later three weeks later she calls me and says oh I'm not going to say his name but I remember his name and he wants you to do some hypnosis I said what now oh come on stop telling people
[00:51:37] because she was basically trying to sell me not sell me but just get me will you stop barking please Vinnie don't stare at me we've been out for a walk I've given you treats I've given you a bone you've got food you've got water you've had a tension with a little play fight try and make a recording baby
[00:52:02] I think it's weird this is Thursday so this is chip van day as soon as the chip van goes past it goes like that it's not him but the chip van it's a really weird sort of grinding sound Vinnie will be getting excited anyway so
[00:52:33] it turned out that her boss asked if I could go he was willing to pay me I said I'm taking money it was just you know I was happy to help when I found out what it was so basically his wife who I'd never met was having a very serious operation about six days or five days later everything's right at the last minute but she was having an operation
[00:53:01] and having reconstruction surgery as well so it was a big a big thing and her issue other than the pain side of things she was it was a she was worried it was just like standard standard things really really she was petrified so I went along to her house I think he picked me up and took me back to his house this time I was in a room just with her
[00:53:31] he was a different part of the house so this was strange in a way because I'd never met her before and I was sitting in a room with a complete stranger kind of for the first time ever doing what I was doing doing hypnosis stuff and that went really well and it was a success the whole thing was really really good and she
[00:54:01] it was the whole that event and then everything that happened afterwards for her was as far as I'm aware was a success and even recovery the recovery time was quicker than the doctor expected so it still was a good good thing so I was chucked into the deep end twice and that's a deeper end than the driving test
[00:54:30] than the driving instructor test but I was out of my depth I really was and then right Teresa rings me again when I'm at work she's really on it this girl well she's a woman but you know she's back then she was younger she was about that's I think she might be a little bit older than me actually she rings me again saying oh
[00:55:01] my what's her name's like a mutual friend we had her husband her husband he wouldn't yeah it's a long story but basically he he wanted me to go into the hospital and help him to relax before having a medical procedure a serious medical procedure so I was like I've met the man once at his wedding and I didn't really know him but he refused
[00:55:30] he refused to have the procedure done he'd had it done before and he didn't like it and he wouldn't have it done unless I went and helped him so I don't know what Theresa was telling people that I was really good or something but this was getting silly it's like it I mean I was happy to do it because ironically this is where I had a little bee in my bonnet about people you know say why is it free why is it free that was going to be the name of my book
[00:56:00] for about 20 years it was going to be called why is it free because that's what I am I was asked so many times by people in real life and so I went and saw this this man in the hospital ward and again it was a success and he went for the procedure and it was like way way easier than it had been before
[00:56:28] and I also went and saw him as well during kind of the final period and I went to his house and did some pain relief and stuff and that was also successful so it was quite life changing really for me those three things two super serious two very serious things
[00:56:58] both the same kind of same category of illness and the day after being in that hospital ward I was at lunch with one of my Buddhist friends we were sitting outside I think we were sitting in a graveyard or something you know just having a nice little picnic and he said to me because we were talking I guess I talked a bit about my
[00:57:28] hypnosis stuff and everyone knew that I what I did what I was into what I was interested in maybe I talked a bit too much about it but he it's almost he decided to give me a lecture and he said people don't appreciate things if they're free if you give something away free it's not it's not valued it's
[00:57:57] people don't value it and I stood up because at this point I was sitting down and I was fine if you're going to stand up make sure you start from a seated position otherwise it's quite hard if you're already standing up it's hard to stand up isn't it otherwise I just said I sat down but sitting down isn't quite as formidable is it I'm going to sit down and tell you what I think it's like a little bit different
[00:58:26] and I went in on one but I just had a little bit of a go and saying you know what I just you know what I did yesterday or last night because I think it was after work maybe or in the late afternoon because I was working part time at the time at the time and it's just the idea that man in that hospital ward I'd say
[00:58:55] well I'd argue very much appreciated what I did and I was doing it as a gift I wasn't doing it for money I wasn't asking for money money was I mean I don't want to say the words but in that kind of ward money is not handed over you know for treatment
[00:59:24] just it's just it'd be wrong like morally I would for me it would be morally wrong so the idea that what I did because at that time this was like 2006 I was doing the recordings online I just started everything after that wait a minute I think yeah that's when I
[00:59:55] that's when I decided to was it I lose track of the time scale of this timeline because that might have been 2005 2006 I think it might have been 2005 blimey but anyway that's kind of what led me to start doing the online stuff to go down this road that I'm in that I've been doing for 19 years
[01:00:26] and just those words people don't value stuff that's free they don't value something that's free and I just that's bugged me for 19 years or 20 years because because I've heard it so many times on self-help books audiobooks read it because you know I've read hundreds of yeah hundreds of books on motivation self-help
[01:00:56] change your life all that stuff in the hope of maybe becoming a decent person and I still hear it sometimes or hear it in an audio book you know it's not if it's free people don't don't appreciate it and that's going to be the case but there's also going to be a lot of people that don't appreciate it if it costs money as well
[01:01:25] someone that doesn't appreciate something they're just not going to appreciate it are they? either way they can appreciate it because it costs money I think the one there's one real thing the only benefit of charging a lot of money is it raises the expectation for the person who is paying so let's say if it's a stop smoking
[01:01:55] session you know one on one stop smoking session the more you charge the better results you're going to get because if someone's willing to pay if someone's only willing to pay like £30 or £40 then they may not be as motivated as someone is willing to pay £500 I say may not be but someone that's willing to pay
[01:02:25] a large amount of money is either super super dedicated to completing their side of the deal which is to not smoke anymore or they just have money to throw away so you know there's two sides to that I guess but outside of like stop smoking and things like that
[01:02:56] I don't think the more you pay I suppose it's expectations expectations is powerful isn't it so I imagine yeah for like celebrities they wouldn't go to an average charging hypnotherapist or psychotherapist that maybe charges £50 an hour you know a movie star is going to go to someone
[01:03:24] that maybe charges $5,000 an hour but with that comes discretion and the sense that they're you know they've got the best and even though they might not have the best the best you know there might be a psychotherapist around the corner that's charging $100 an hour and they might be way better
[01:03:53] way more skilled way more perfect for that particular client $100 an hour that would be nice wouldn't it so hmm hmm what else does it say you've structured your I've got a personal website jason new lad dot com and I've got an index of podcasts podcasts on my website as well
[01:04:24] I've uploaded podcasts to the website from my RSS feeds from my Spreaker podcasts I've also got a YouTube channel so she's telling me stuff like this I so this is this was Teresa's thing so she got three people she kind of put me into a position where I didn't have to but I kind of I couldn't really say no to these three people
[01:04:55] all three of them who didn't really know and then someone from the Buddhist centre who I think was also possibly just fed up with hearing me talking about the hypnosis told me told me to phone someone who was a friend of hers and she wanted me to
[01:05:25] so basically she had to have double lung transplants and she couldn't get in she wouldn't go into the hospital because she was had a phobia of hospitals understandable really in that situation I think and the doctors the specialist said that she didn't she kept turning up and then not being able to go inside and they said if we make an appointment because like a two day stay for all the tests they had to do to see whether or not she was um
[01:05:53] viable to have the operation so they said to her if you don't I think it was on a Tuesday morning this was a Saturday evening they said that I was seeing her on a Saturday afternoon if you didn't go inside the hospital on Tuesday morning she would be and she was basically just signed off they wouldn't deal with her anymore which is a bit harsh but I think she'd kind of
[01:06:22] done it a few times and she and they just said no we can't we'll just I don't know if it was like put you at the back of the queue or just you know because she'd been waiting for years to get to this point so and it got to the point where it was really really really really important to get it done if at all possible so I've talked about this recently so I won't go into great detail but she did not like me she did not like me
[01:06:50] I got there and there was in this dark room and she just it was almost like I'm thinking did I change my underpants before I came out because there was you know it's always it's like oh she doesn't like me for a reason for something I don't know why but after two and a half hours because I don't give up after two and a half hours of her
[01:07:19] well it wasn't two and a half hours of her but it was at least an hour of her being very cagey very dismissive even rude to the point of being rude like what do you want why are you even here stuff like that two and a half hours later we were laughing and I've even I've got the letter somewhere that she sent me went inside the hospital easy and had a good time had two days of laughter
[01:07:50] which is yeah maybe I opened up her opened up her tickled her funny bone maybe got her feeling a bit lighter but that was it was very strange that I had those four in that period of time and yeah I don't know and then when I started doing the free pain relief service I was going around people's houses and
[01:08:20] and then I was seeing people I rented this therapy room on a Saturday morning for about four hours every Saturday for a while and it was just really strange how it all took off and then then before I know it I'm volunteering doing group relaxation sessions at two different charities one drug rehab centre and another one for alcohol
[01:08:49] I was like how did this come about and then like a year later I'm signing up for starting a degree in counselling so yeah it was it was kind of weird how that all happened and what's weird is how I got onto it's not really weird I was going to say how I got onto talking about myself but that's pretty much what I do isn't it on these recordings
[01:09:20] you're building a podcast based autobiography to eventually turn into a book yeah erm this is one of the things I am this is motivations and personal philosophy okay what does it say here so you feel a strong connection to your audience often tailoring content for their needs okay do I do I take content I suppose I try yeah people ask me for stuff and
[01:09:51] I try it's very hard to to I know it's impossible to meet everyone's needs as Buddy Holly once said the best way to fail is to try to please everyone so yeah it's hard but I do my best luckily I've only got 7 people listening to me so it's you know
[01:10:21] not too bad you you you respond to listeners requests with new recordings or episodes so yeah I do I've done that you are compassionate especially towards dealing with pain serious medical conditions or emotional hardship well thank you I don't know if I'm compassionate I just I think everyone's compassionate I think
[01:10:50] you believe in the power of expectation belief and repetition and that's the most powerful thing there's nothing there's nothing touches it no medication no drug nothing
[01:11:19] is as powerful as belief and I don't mean necessarily from a healing perspective just belief look how it it structured someone's whole life and what they do how they act what they believe obviously believe and yeah it's huge and yeah
[01:11:49] you are building a podcast okay so that's that's the life of a bipolar hypnotist which I started and that was going to be I can turn that into my book so I was going to do episodes and I might still do it but just not release them have them and then just turn them into a book so I had to transcribe them put them into chat GPT and then let it just sort out the different bits
[01:12:20] the bits where I talk about my childhood things where I talk about working in the bakery or the chip shop or working in security or I don't know doing karate koate koate all the different things and just trying to figure out how I can put it together and helping me with the structure because that's something I'm yeah I'm not necessarily
[01:12:49] cohesive with is the structure of things because I don't think I'm particularly structured with the recordings I'm fairly structured with making the recordings but the let me bore your pain away recordings are a lot more structured than the let me bore you to sleep ones but then I like both
[01:13:18] I do like unstructured stuff but the let me bore your pain away it's a mixture between the two to be fair Vinny's just staring at me I was going to talk about from the a magazine let's have a quick look for a magazine shall we women's weekly women's weekly so this is from this week it's a magazine
[01:13:48] I don't know if it's available in other countries and oh I lost six stone with hypnotherapy let's click on that no can't click on it I've actually got to go through what page it doesn't say what page it's on damn right hello hello good to share let's have a quick look
[01:14:15] are you sitting comfortable bubbly what are you wearing gardeners hotels in history oh that's an old fashioned hotel I don't know I think about sometimes you know what kind of would I live would I like to live in a stately home maybe not one that's open to the public though I think it's nice to have a bit of privacy you know
[01:14:44] if you get your breakfast you're having your breakfast or having your dinner you don't want to have to get dressed do you in case like members of the public start walking through and looking at the paintings not something I've had to really be concerned with so far so this is the power of thought
[01:15:13] I didn't know there was going to be an article about hypnosis but I'm sorry but I can't is this wait a minute that's not even the article is that the article? because I couldn't see anything about hypnosis in it right
[01:15:43] I think it is the article the article oh would you like to live in a stately home? I don't know I think I I think I quite like would like to I'm not sure about all the paintings though because I kind of think that with with a stately home I mean it's like anything really any building you're only borrowing it aren't you? you know even if you decide to live in it for life it's borrowed it's
[01:16:12] someone else eventually is going to live there and with a stately home because they're maybe five, six, seven hundred years old they've had whole generations of families living there perhaps and it would feel like I was living in someone else's house really because you can't
[01:16:41] you're limited to what you I'm guessing but I think you'd be limited to what you can do you can't tarmac the drive you can't get you know decide to dig up the grass and put a big bouncy castle in there and you know there's probably certain things you can't do you can't change some kind of building restrictions I'm pretty sure you can't put a little
[01:17:10] an extension on or put a shed in the garden maybe you can satellite dish on the I mean no one has satellite dishes anymore apart from everyone that has satellite dishes but they're not satellite dishes they're just left over from the past they're relics because Sky doesn't use satellite dishes anymore it's all now just done through the internet
[01:17:39] but I've got two on my wall not inside I can't find the hypnosis thing it must have been that one about the losing weight thing all my stars let's have a look Virgo new possibilities surround you now you may be tempted to stick to what you know but taking a leap into the unknown will be far more enjoyable I'll be up for that something a bit different
[01:18:09] come on someone show me something a bit different give me a a new lease of life show me a new a new doorway let's go back I think that I've gone through the bit that I was reading that was about the weight loss let's go back the power of thought
[01:18:37] all Sam wanted was to feel normal to not stand out or need to hide at the back of group photographers for most of her life she had battle with weight and eventually reaching 22 stone ok by December 2023 Sam's health had reached breaking point so she wasn't well she decided enough was enough and a chance post on Facebook showed her a program
[01:19:07] to manage what she ate and dramatically improve her health this wasn't diet but a lifestyle change which transformed her so I'm just where it's not even mentioned hypnosis where's the hypnosis part
[01:19:30] she's having a look I'm just reading through this so it gave her weight loss it helped with her weight loss and she's happy and brilliant but I can't see
[01:19:55] she had a lot of problems with chronic pain and stuff she started following a new program which involved downloading an online course the 12 weeks of hypnotherapy right ok now I've found it they've mentioned hypnotherapy once in the whole article which is weird considering the front cover was saying hypnosis
[01:20:26] so she and weekly coaching session to completely change her relationship with food the idea is to listen in a quiet place where deep relaxation assists with absorbing positive messaging about your regular diet advice includes eating slowly as well as drinking plenty of water once I downloaded the course to my phone
[01:20:55] I could listen as many times as I needed to until things became embedded Sam explains hearing that nothing awful would happen if I didn't eat before work was a revelation repetition is the key and hypnotherapy contradicts the bully in your brain it's about oh I've just come out of it oh wait I've got I'm back what
[01:21:21] oh I just want to go to the top this app is not easy to navigate sometimes navigate navigate the program reinforces scientific specific guidelines such as recognizing when you are no longer hungry rather than feeling full and
[01:21:52] yeah cool that's good this magazine to be fair is and this is not I don't think it's being sexist to say that it's aimed at women can you imagine people getting angry what do you mean it's aimed at women it's a magazine oh you automatically think it's aimed at women because it's got stuff about dieting and is that you automatically think it's about women because it's got adverts for dresses oh you automatically think it's about women because it's got horoscope
[01:22:22] oh you automatically think it's about women no it's called Women's Weekly that's why I think it's about for women thank you thank you very much it's called Women's Weekly I think I can safely without backlash say that it's aimed at women I think it's fair enough is it is it I mean
[01:22:50] even if it didn't have the name Women's Weekly every single article is pretty much about women and it's aimed at it's clearly aimed I mean it could be aimed at anyone the fact I only do this is because it's called Women's Weekly that's the only reason I know not because of anything else he lied so managed to get through a whole magazine
[01:23:20] let's see if I can get through another whole magazine what else is there er er chat shall we look at chat chat let's have a look at chat come on let's have a look at chat it's this chat magazine er ok let's see if there's any nice stories find your perfect match oh it's about it's glasses
[01:23:51] come on in come on in chat to us what have you been up to mind your own business are you a dog or a cat person or neither er ok just trying to find something that's there's er just genius your tips at the tops oh let's have a look at this
[01:24:20] just soup er i want to blitz the veggies i'd cooked for my soup i covered the pan with cling film first and put the blender through it to save cleaning my walls and me cup of joy i make gifts out of basic plain white mugs i decorate them using dishwasher proof transfers the recipients always love them
[01:24:50] should we edit that to the recipients always say they love them the recipients always say they pretend to love them no i'm sure they're lovely that's very it's a lovely gift isn't it erm fly away put little bags of dried lavender on windowsills to repel moths, flies and creepy crawlies in spring and summer they also add a lovely scent or scent or skint to your home aww bag of dried lavender
[01:25:21] i might give that a go definitely had an issue with one fly anyway reuse toilet roll inserts by cutting them in half and planting seeds in them they're just the right size but they do look like toilet rolls with dirt inside in fact you could argue
[01:25:50] it might not be dirt yeah so let's move on rolling on i got sick of cleaning my roller between coats of paint by popping it in a plastic zip block bag i found that i didn't need to clean it after every coat of paint saving time and mess ok brushing up using some paint in my cupboard i painted an old candle holder
[01:26:18] it now perfectly matches my bathroom colour scheme and is used for storing my toothbrush and toothpaste in erm what's weird though i'm not gonna, i'm not being rude what's weird is is that an old candle holder it's painted it it's dirty, it's literally just it looks like it's been found
[01:26:48] like someone's just accidentally falling in the ditch and found this thing and thought i know what i'll do i'll take that home and put my toothbrush in it that's what it looks like it's not even, it looks dirty and scratched ok, let's have a little look i'm curious right so we're gonna just have a look
[01:27:18] Amazon let's go to Amazon i'm just curious Amazon right, let's have a look toothbrush holder toothbrush holder one pound so let's go price so
[01:27:48] one pence for delivery $7.69 so that's not really ideal is it and blimey i didn't think they'd be selling stuff that low one pound free delivery one pound toothbrush holder one pound or you've got a bowl which is similar to the thing they already had
[01:28:17] which was actually but looks nice and that is one pound eight pence with a two pound sixty nine delivery see yeah but you could just pay one pound with free delivery one pound
[01:28:47] or one two three pound seventy seven or ultimately let's have a look here's another way of looking at it you could just get a mug a mug let's have a look
[01:29:15] so we go for free delivery shall we see how much it is with all prime only go for prime ones two pound fifteen and also i mean if you could just walk go to the pound shop if you got a local pound shop that's got to be more fun than jumping into a ditch i'm not saying someone would do that on purpose i mean
[01:29:43] i didn't mean to fall in a ditch it's just it's just one of the benefits that i got out of it compromise let's look at some of these very weird mugs with some very strange pictures on them
[01:30:13] one says christmas see you next tuesday blimey only 390 349 free delivery i mean next year's present i guess for someone anyway
[01:30:43] how was where how did i go on that oh yeah there was something that i was seeing on the in the magazine wasn't it i can't remember what it was me what have we got oh there's a doggy there sunglasses focus on quitting smoking is it an adi you want to run out of the ladder for
[01:31:16] i'm just gonna see maybe see if there's a see if there is a horoscope finney's hassling me oh here we go here we go let's have a look at my horoscope i don't think there's a good name for it is it horror you know supposed to be like a positive thing you know horror scope what about
[01:31:45] weekly scope happy scope no horror scope so virgo diligent and hard working you're always there to offer a hand to those who need it but do consider what you need to receive and what help you require no one appreciates free stuff oh dear i do believe that's the end of the recording ladies and gentlemen so thank you for listening
[01:32:14] tomorrow is q&a friday so i've got a few questions already but if you have a question please go to my jason newlands boring group on facebook and i've posted a thing where you can just add your question or you could go onto my website click on q&a friday and there's a box you can fill in at the top of the page which asks a question so thank you for listening remember to be kind to yourself
[01:32:43] because you do deserve to be happy and be gentle with yourself because you deserve to feel safe lots of love
[01:32:53] not just allow you to feel
[01:33:38] just relaxed at the end of the recording when it's finished you can enjoy that sense of comfort and peace
[01:33:51] also nice to those feelings of relaxation continue
[01:34:20] for longer after the recording is ended so that you can still benefit from listening to my voice in a few hours time
[01:34:46] and by listening regularly especially if you find like some people do and myself as well sometimes i'll find one particular recording that really resonates with me
[01:35:13] and i'll just listen to it over and over again there was this recording from back to about 1999 it wasn't hypnosis but it was a guided visualisation
[01:35:44] so it kind of was hypnosis really i managed to find it again and it still has the same effect part of it was the person's voice just felt so peaceful
[01:36:14] and i'd look forward to listening to her and in the evening before even pressing the play button that as soon as i've done that press the play button
[01:36:44] this was in the days of CD players press the play button in fact it might have even been a tape tape recorder i'd lie down on the bed and then even without necessarily
[01:37:14] listening to her words because it was as if my body exactly what to do the muscles just
[01:37:46] almost went into automatic relaxation my mind would slow down
[01:38:08] i was listening to this recording in the days of learning hypnosis and long before i ever made videos or audio recordings myself
[01:38:37] because i didn't start doing that until 2006 being able to just let go
[01:39:10] trust in the person i'm listening to and that it's going to be just as relaxing if if not more so each time you hear my voice
[01:39:36] you may feel the same people have been listening to me for over a decade maybe not solidly
[01:40:04] obviously not 24 hours a day maybe people come back people maybe listen everyday there's something that i do which you may not realise
[01:40:32] so if i said to you
[01:41:15] focus on your feet notice your feet relaxing i will be focusing on my feet
[01:41:28] i said focus on your hands maybe notice the difference
[01:41:56] between each hand you can notice the the air in the room the temperature of the room you may start to notice
[01:42:24] what almost feels like a very light breeze it may not be any type of breeze at all where you are as you become aware of
[01:42:50] it comes to
[01:43:29] potentially drifting which may be the reason you are listening also notice
[01:44:11] at times actually falling asleep listen back to
[01:44:41] do the editing i hear snoring snoring? no noise a pig-tap that's what i sound like when i snore
[01:45:08] you feel and notice
[01:46:02] easier your breathing becomes
[01:46:37] almost like muscle relaxation this allows you
[01:47:09] necessarily focusing or to notice visualize
[01:49:14] producing all that
[01:54:19] because nothing
[01:54:20] for sensations
[01:54:49] muscles
[01:59:41] front of your body
[02:06:38] spreading those signals down your spine
[02:06:42] or tips of your toes
[02:08:11] the space
[02:27:50] and you could start to notice that you are feeling even though i've not focused your mind sense of physical comfort that is growing within you
