With more people going back to school, college and university, or even going to new schools for the first time, there can't be a feeling of nervousness. This is totally natural and an experience we have all felt. And the aim of this recording is to reduce this nervousness as much as possible. You'll realise that this is a shared experience and the recording will help

you relax and help you realise why you have these feelings. This recording can also be used by students who have been at school for a while now and maybe perhaps are a little bit nervous about going to school the next day. I also have a similar episode for people who are a little bit nervous about the upcoming week and the work week ahead. It's called Feel Good about the upcoming week. Don't stay up tonight worrying about tomorrow. I'll leave a link in the show notes. This recordings were people over 18 in higher education. When I mentioned school in this recording, I'm talking about higher education as a catch-all. Begin in the state of self-meditation. you're not asleep or unconscious, you're aware of your surroundings.

You can't be forced to do anything that's against your will. Don't worry about outside sounds and distractions because you're soon able to relax completely and can use the outside sounds to deepen your trance. You're always in control and can accept or reject suggestions as you wish. Allow yourself to absorb the suggestions without evaluating or analysing. Don't worry if your mind drifts off because you'll still gain the benefits from the suggestions.

When you find yourself focused on other thoughts, gently remind yourself to focus on my voice and the suggestions. Don't worry about getting it or doing it right. Just allow yourself to feel comfortable and relaxed in the safe place where you were listening to this recording. Now take a deep breath in and if your eyes aren't closed already, please close them on the exhale. As you take a deep breath in again, stropping your shoulders, and detensing all the tight muscles in your body. Now imagine a cord to the base of your spine

and travelling all the way to the centre of the earth. Really anchor that cord now into the centre of the earth. Wrapping the ends around anything solid you find to expand to a size that's comfortable for you, Any stress, tension, anxiety or negativity down that core. You can release any unfinished projects, attention. Knowledge any thoughts that may come into your mind. Release them down your grounding core.

Take another deep breath. Halt the breath for a couple of seconds and exhale through your mouth with a sigh. Relaxing even deeper. that relaxation feeling flowing into your body as you inhale negativity disappears as you exit

you can disappear through your breathing it can disappear down this grounding core you feel so tranquil so calm and so relaxed and with your third

once more fitting your outside sounds or anyone else's voice now you can enjoy the comfort of drifting into a deep state of relaxation. If you really need to, you can wake up. But otherwise this time is for you now. Just for you for all that tension to relax and detent of your muscles.

That stress to flow out of you and to feel calm and soothed. to your feet and process for you to be doing now. Just allow yourself to let go and relax those muscles. Relax those shoulders and you begin to feel a wave of the sensation of your head, tensing all the muscles in your forehead and smoothing out and this moves around your eyes. Tiny little muscle relaxing around your eyes. So your eyelids just feel light and faint across yourself drifting deeper and deeper and deeper

and deeper this relaxation feeling moving across your nose and down into your cheeks. The muscles melting down just like butter melting on a warm stove, drifting deeper as the muscles around your mouth. that relaxation flows into your jaw and into your tongue. It may separate slightly as your jaw relaxes. To flow from the top of your head and over the back of your head, into your neck, into your shoulders like getting a nice massage. Around your ears and temples and down into your neck muscles. And you even might move your neck a bit,

and releasing. And as the muscles begin to blend and melt, feel yourself drifting deeper and deeper with each easy breath you take really relax inside your soul and inside your muscles you don't need to listen to outside thoughts if you don't want to you can go deeper and deeper the relaxation of flow from your neck into your shoulders removing all the tension and your shoulders drop with a comfortable relaxation feeling of looseness, and you allow the muscle to let go completely, even more, begins to flow across your shoulders and down your arms, moving into each and nerve adds into your fingers of your fingers as you relax and you relax more within, and as you relax

you allow all the stress and tension, to drain out that wave of relaxation, comes back up to your shoulders and down your chest, into your stomach, where your breathing is deep, and all discomfort and disorder. Goes from your body, and your mind clears. The sleeve of relaxation flows around your waist now and into your hips and feel those muscles melting as you allow yourself to relax you may feel a pleasant tingling now. Ancles and your toes and attention goes and you feel a lovely feeling from the top of your head flowing down all the way through your entire body relaxation spreads in your thighs, your knees,

feeling of relaxation goes. In a complete state of relaxation, as you enter your own private haven, a beautiful place of peace, comfort and tranquility, a place where you are deeply relaxed, a place where it's safe to feel all your feelings, a place where it's safe to express your feelings, A place where you are relaxed and at peace and you allow your subconscious mind to fully open as a flower opens to the rays of the sun. It is good and deep and snow. You visualize yourself being in a beautiful place. A special place. You just enjoy it because you may be going to school, tomorrow or in the future.

And you may feel a little nervous. feels nervous in these circumstances. But when we look back, we realise that it perhaps wasn't as much of a big thing that we realised. It's so natural to have these feelings in new, strange situations, as those cavemen.

When we go into new situations, we get nervous and stress to be okay. Being a little worried about what we might be after a lot. summer break or that it's just the weekend worried about going to school. You may be worried about school and what you might encounter there or just because you are leaving home. Whatever it is, you can fix that and you will start finding school. Place to be that it is the end of a summer

break or a weekend break and you're back in your new classroom and school. with new tutors, teachers and classmates. You are really prepared, and you have everything that you need to have with you, your pencil and pens and books, and everything you need to make it today a success. You're always going to be prepared from now on. You also have an air of self-confidence.

You are full of self-esteem. you are going to your school the other person has a claim over your experience in school and make you nervous as this school is for you it's here to help you to nurture you

today could be the start of the week or a new turn but it can be a fresh start for you as our past does not have to influence our future. As you go to school you see the welcoming people faces. You notice that there are people on their own and this is a new experience for them as well. You start speaking to them and putting them at ease and you start to ask where they are from and what they are studying and you put them at ease and start to talk about

shared experiences, like pop culture or TV shows. You even talk about what they are going to expect from the new class. Conversation just flows effortlessly, but you can just talk to them calmly. And the nerves go? Your nerves go. You feel so at peace and confident, great and self-assured, whilst being yourself. whilst being yourself at all times. You love this feeling

and you aim to be like this as often as you can because being yourself and confident with who you are is really a good thing. You go into the room and sit down. The teacher tells you what is going to be happening and welcomes you to the day and what will be upcoming in the days to come just to chat to your classmates

and get to know each other everything is calm and you enjoy the calm and even a little bit of excitement of the day most people are nice and friendly and maybe there are a couple of people who seem a little bit overconfident but there always are

People want to hear what you have to say. After this, you have a new class where you do some work. You're excited and eager to hear new ideas and thoughts and think the class is incredible and can't wait for it again. You feel that you need to be challenged so happy. You concentrate fully on the class and you know you have plenty of time to learn before any exams or. tests. You're really going to try hard at the beginning of the semester all term, so that you are

really prepared for the work later in the year. The more you attend classes, your schools and grades increase. You may have dreams to move further into different educational fields in your chosen subject, and you have the confidence to study and revise to achieve your goals. You will look forward to going to school more and more. This will be a place where you learn. Make great friends and maybe even find love. Many people who are older in life

sometimes realize they would love to go back to this time even though that might not feel like this now. If you are in higher educational university, this is the time when you can live independently and free. Callers over, you feel that you can go home and think about the friendships you are building and how much new knowledge you have absorbed. You have become like a sponge, information and knowledge. Flows in you look forward to school the next day and the day after. and do you realize how much you are enjoying it?

School is something really to be confident serene and ready to be great every school day. This is an exciting new adventure for you. Everyone is eager to get to know you and you are eager and you love going to class. You enjoy studying at night with your studies. So you have no reason to be nervous, being behind on them. Nervousness is now behind you,

and you can just experience serene calm.
