Thanks for listening tonight. If you'd like to listen to Add Free and get access to exclusive

I love listening to podcasts in my spare time when I'm walking my dog dolling and obviously

I want to wind down and relax like you. If you like this show and are interested in making

your own, let me tell you about Anka. It's free to use so you can have fun without worrying

about spending any money. There are some really cool creation tools that allow you to record

and edit your podcast right from your phone or computer. And now you can even add songs from

Spotify directly to your episodes. There is no end to the types of content you can create

and if your idea is a hit, Anka can help you start making money from your podcast.

They will also distribute your podcast for you so it can be heard on loads of streaming sites

such as Spotify and Apple podcasts. It really is everything you need to make a podcast in one place.

Download the free Anka app or go to Anka.fm to get started.

Good evening and welcome to the Sleepy Bookshelf where we put down our worries from the day

and pick up a good book. I'm your host Elizabeth. It is a pleasure to have you here with me.

Tonight we'll be returning to the lightdowns but before we do, take some time to be present

where you are right now. Start off by taking a deep breath in through your nose

and out through your mouth. Gently close your eyes. Notice where your body is,

how your position and how your body feels. If you notice any tension anywhere,

try to allow that to soften or adjust your body if that helps.

Now find a stillness and take your awareness to your environment.

What sounds and smells are around you. What's the temperature like?

Does your mind create any images to match these senses?
