Summary
In this session, Martin Hewlett—a clinical hypnotherapist and former paramedic—guides you through a "Night Calm" practice specifically designed to interrupt the health worry loop. Drawing on years of frontline emergency experience, Martin explains the difference between what your mind tells you at 2:00 AM and what your body is actually doing. Using the power of your parasympathetic nervous system, you will learn to move from a state of hyper-vigilance into deep, safe rest.

| 0:29.6 | Hello and welcome to calming anxiety. I'm Martin Hewlett. I'm your guide today. I'm a clinical hypnotherapist |
| 0:40.3 | and former paramedic. If you're listening to this at the end of the day, when the house |
| 0:47.3 | is quiet and you find you simply can't stop worrying about your health, I want you to know you are not alone. That night |
| 0:58.5 | calm you're looking for starts with understanding that your mind is doing just what |
| 1:04.0 | minds do under pressure, scanning for threats. I've spent a long time in the back of ambulances with people whose bodies |
| 1:13.6 | were sending those loud signals. I've learned that the body and the mind speak very different |
| 1:20.6 | languages. What your mind tells you at 2am and what your body is actually doing are often very far apart. |
| 1:30.3 | So make yourself comfortable now. You can sit or lie down and to close out the world around you. |

| 2:29.4 | This isn't just a nice thought, it's physiology. |
| 2:36.3 | The long out breath activates your parasympathetic system. |
