Close that joint up. This wagon saved lives, baby. I don't know how she was gonna be able to take it all. She would have to pay multiple trips that she didn't have a wagon, baby. If we wouldn't brag and we ain't had that wagon, or she would have had to just use the bag and then bring the bag back. But it would have been awkward carrying it, baby. Let's go. It is MCR and we are now back in the car. We're not going that far, but we seem like stars to Mars.  That boy rhyming.

We running it up like a track meet. Our next stop is 33 minutes away, 22 miles. Y'all know we about to go out and I hope y'all like my style. Let's go. Stop that line. I know your type. You are not that kind.  You ain't bout if I'm Teddy D, baby. Turn out the lights. Turn up my mic.  So stop frittin' nigga. We are here at stop number two. Y'all know what it's time to do. It's time to get busy. So come on. Y'all gotta put the code in. Play code in, baby. Come up below and let me know if we have more than other ones. Oh, the other one had more this time. We only got one in this y'all. Who knows? Oh, got to give him a photo. Thank you for choosing me. Give him a photo. Man! How's it going? Are you ready? Well, my name is Mr. Drop Off. So, we are doing Drop Off right now but way, way, way, many moons ago, baby. My name was Mr. Drop Off because I used to sell replica clothes. I break down everything. How I got started and all that stuff, right? So, boom, this was back in the day. I met this dude that I know. I met him actually on Facebook. He was messing with the cars and all that stuff. I used to do cars and all that stuff. So I leaked out with him or this is back when I was in Job Corps. So I hit him up. I come home. We chop it up. We kick it a few times. Boom. He put me on this lady who sell the clothes, baby. So, again, these are replica clothes. Before I even get to the story, I just want to tell you guys that, yes, I did make sure I let everybody know that they subscribe to the stuff. If this is not the real thing, but I had to get that green, baby. So, show me later with the clothes. I go buy stuff, right? So, I buy stuff a few times. I'm gonna get fresh nasty. I got YSL bedbuckles. Y'all, show looking. YSL bedbuckles, North Face. I'm gonna get fresh nasty, baby. So, go over there. We're gonna keep going over there for a few times. I get some more stuff. Some more stuff, right?  Well, why would you wear fake clothes? And I said, look, man, look. It ain't about what you're wearing. It's who wearing it, baby.  Because I don't understand why somebody would pay, you know, four, five, six, seven hundred, eight hundred dollars for a belt. Comment below, let me know. I don't know. But back to the story, right? So, boom. We go over there, go over there. So, I'm trying to top it over here. Later with the clothes, I'm like, yeah. So, let me buy you. I'm gonna give you some money so you can give me the plugs so I can get my old clothes so I can start selling them. Because everybody already know I was front acting. I've been front acting for a long time. So, boom. So, I can start selling myself. She steady procrastinating. No, no, no. So, this goes on for years. She's steady not trying to give me the plug, right? So, it comes down to a point. One time, she had some leftover stuff. She gave me the stuff. Well, she didn't give it to me. It's like she not funny to tell me, but she gave it to me and I had to go selling to bring the money back. But I have my own money. So, it was kind of like weird. So, she would not give me that plug, baby. She would give me that plug for nothing. Boom. I get the stuff. I go crazy. I sell stuff. I boom, boom, boom, boom. Go crazy, right? Come back, give her her money. And I come back. I'm only, I only make like 200 meazy dollars. Actually, I just sold about $600 or $700 worth of stuff. Quick, too. So, I steady keep asking them time, more time, more time, more. Guess what, baby?  She finally let me get in, baby. So, she let me order that stuff. She used to have it. She used to call these people in New York. She used to tell me, all send me the pictures, all the stuff that they got. And then I used to tell her exactly what I want. I used to buy cases of stuff. So, I'm gonna tell you guys all the stuff I had. I'm talking about, I was going crazy. I had everything you can imagine. I had North faces. I have North face hoodies. I had polo jargon suits. I had designer watches. I had designer purses. I had Uggs. I had Timbs. I had Uggs, Timbs, Gucci scarf sets. Gucci with the Gucci hat and Gucci scarf. I had that. I had polo coat. I had perfume. I had cologne. I had, I got pictures. I'm gonna be sending these pictures in there too. What else I had? I had true religions. I had robin jeans. I had true religions, whole fits, with the hoodie and everything. I had the Gucci, Louis, Prada, Fendi, Farragamo, all the belts. All the belts I had. I had so much stuff. So, this is what I was doing, baby. I was putting a lot of work in too. I was out there, I was going crazy, baby. I was putting a lot of work in, but what I would do is, she'll get the stuff for me. I'd tell her everything I want. I used to get cases of stuff. I'm getting some prices for the Timbs. I'm talking, these Timbs are just like the real deal too. Timberlitz, $75. Uggs, $65. The watches was $50. The North faces was $50. The purses was $50. Cologne and perfume was like $20, $30 depending on what it was. What else would I have? True religions, $50. The whole fit for the $75. I'm talking about, I was out there going crazy. So, boom. This is what I used to do every day, right? I used to go to work, when I get out of work, if I had a shipment to go pick up, I used to go to her crib. Boom. She used to go to her crib, because they used to send it in the mail.  So, when I get there, I'll take the pictures of everything. And then I had a list. I used to like Uggs. I used to write down all the sizes I had. Boom, boom, boom, boom. I got all these sizes. Then I used to go on my Facebook and post up everything. Post up everything I had, post up the price and post up the sizes I got. Boom. Then I put my phone over there. Then guess what? My phone started ringing off the hook. Now I'm going crazy. This is the area I covered. From North Chicago, Illinois, all the way to Racine, Wisconsin. It's probably North Chicago, Waukegan, Zion, Gurney. These are the cities. North Chicago, Waukegan, Zion, Gurney, Winter Harbor, Pleasant Prairie, Kenosha, Racine. I was covering eight areas, baby. And shout out to them. Some of my guys, they just come from Milwaukee, shoot down here and meet me at the mall. I used to give them stuff too, but I was going crazy.  People call my phone. Boom. I was going so crazy, right? My mom had to start answering my comments on my Facebook. She had to run my Facebook and she had to try to tell me the navigation I needed to go over here.  I used to pull right up to your house. You ain't got to come out.  All you got to do is have that money. I'll put it right up to your dough. You'll come out there. You're gonna get the stuff that you want. Boom, boom, boom. I got the whole truck filled. I had the build, 97th View Park Avenue. The whole backseat filled. I was talking about filled up, whole truck filled up.  Every day I would go crazy. Then the next day I would tell them, yeah, I'm gonna work at 2.30. I used to work from, what time is it to work? 6 to 2.30, 6 a.m. to 2.30 p.m. After that, I'm going crazy. Sometimes I used to come home like at 3.30 in the morning. Guess what? Go to sleep for maybe like an hour or two. Get back up, go to work, do it again. So before I was making only like $200 a few, I'm talking about I was doubling up. My first batch I spent in 1900, I made my money back the same day. Spent the money, made my money, went crazy, made my money back that day. So I used to go crazy and I used to pretty much double up on everything. So whatever stuff they cause, I used to double up on it. So the Uggs, well not the Uggs. The Uggs probably was like $35 a piece and I used to sell them for the 65. Then I used to sell them with the Uggs and I said, man, I was going crazy. My name was Mr. Drop-Off and it was called the Rome Special. So a lot of times in these videos when I've been switching up my name, DDK, it's all about branding, DDK, MCR. I was also, I had a lot of names. So I was Mr. Drop-Off as I was selling the clothes. I was Real Jerome when I was selling the houses. I still sell the houses too. I switched to Real Jerome. I was Landlord Rome and I was being a landlord. I was DDK, DoorDash King when I'm doing DoorDash. I'm MCR when I'm doing the medical caring. So you gotta switch it up. It's all about branding and stamping your name. So yeah, I pretty much was going crazy every single day, putting a lot of hard work, a lot of dedication in. I was going nuts, baby. But all good things must come to an end when you're off thinking them different ends. So this is what happened, right? First up, before I even get to that, I just wanna say a huge shout out to her. She probably never watched this video. Huge shout out to the lady with the clothes because she gave me an opportunity. She had to give me an opportunity. But sometimes when people get that money, they get to act in a little funny, right? So this is what happened. Every time, I used to go crazy. It used to be probably, when I first started, it was like in the summer, in the summer, and it started getting right into fall. I used to go crazy, crazy, crazy, crazy, crazy. Right when text time come, guess what happened? She get that money. She get to act in funny. She get that text money. As you know, I'm here for her for a while. I hit her up, hit her up. She don't, I'm here for her for a while. So that happened two times. I was doing this probably like for a year and a half, two, nah, I was doing it heavy for probably like six months, five months. Then that text time came around. Then she stopped, stopped, stopped fooling with me. Then I had to wait till next time. And then the same thing happened again until we got into it one time. And then that was the end of that baby. And the thing about it was, it was never like I was trying to take her customers. And I had my own stuff. I was doing my own stuff. I was like, they're getting busy by myself. I ain't never got several hard shows. I ain't never got to know her customers. We weren't even really kind of going to the same area. She was used to go like the Skokie. Like she was from Skokie. So her R people was on the Skokie. She used to go off Skokie and get busy out there. And she's still some people around here. But honestly, I really wasn't selling that much to around here. I'm gonna tell you this. When I, I wanna hear you say a cute shout out right now. Stop the video. Cute shout out to everybody in Racine, Wisconsin. I was going so crazy in Racine, Wisconsin. But guess what? I was thinking about getting the apartment out there. I was going there. That's how I know what I was going. Then I had my little set up. I had little set up right. So first I should just go boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom. I'm talking about, and somebody in North Chicago was over, which is over here, called me. I go over there. And somebody in Racine called me. I go all the way over here. Then while Keegan, I go back and forth, back and forth. So then I had started getting the set up cause I was wasting too much time and wasting too much gas, right? So I started setting it up. My job was in Startup Inn, which is right by Racine, right? So what I used to do is I used to tell everybody, I'm getting up at 2.30. I'm going to be in Racine for one to two hours. Then I was messing with this girl here in Racine. So I used to sit over there. So right there, then I had my place was in Kenosha. So I used to go two hours, hour, two hours, hour like that to each spot. So I told you guys all about the good. I do have to tell you guys about some bad too. I can't just give you the one side of the story, baby. Guess what? Somebody did take me up time and gave me a fake dub scene before, baby. Somebody did give me a fake dub scene before. This is how I found that right. I didn't even know it was a fake dub scene. So after I got the fake dub, I'm going to tell you guys what I did. I went to the, I think I went to CVS to Walgreens. I got the little marker with the light on it too. So you can know if it's real or not. But this will happen, right? I got the money. This is actually on my first one. When I spent the 1900 to get the box, to get everything I needed, I went to the bank to send the money to her. I used to have to put the money in her bank account, right? Boom. I go to the bank. The bank, I go to the drive-thru, give them the money. Guess what? They told me to come into the bank. I'm like, I don't know what's going on. Again, this is a fake $20. I said I had no clue. They pretty much took the thing and they said it's pretty much kept it. That's pretty much what they got to do. I had to sign off on this paper and all that stuff. I told them I don't know how it got in there, but they asked what it got in there. But that's not even that bad of a thing because I made a lot of money doing it and I only got one fake dub. Also, guess what else? This is what happened. So, when I was doing all the stuff on my Facebook, I also used to post stuff in like the garage sales and the sales and sales, like the groups and stuff, right? Guess what, man? The people got the hating on me, boy. They got the hating. They tell what they don't call microcores, newer face and all that stuff on me because I was in there getting busy. But again, like I told you guys before, I was telling everybody this stuff was radical. I was not trying to finesse people and telling them it was real when it wasn't, baby. That's one thing I never do. You got to be honest while you're here hustling. And if you want to buy, you're gonna buy it. If you don't, you don't, baby. This is what it is. So, I used to go out there and get busy and that's why my name was Mr. Drop-Off. I did the Mr. Drop-Off. I had the name in Mr. Drop-Off because I was dropping it off right to your dough. And then I used to have a hashtag that's called Rome Special. It was the Rome Special. It's called the Rome Special. My nickname is Rome, for those of you who don't know. It was called the Rome Special. And huge shout out to my god keys. He the one that came up with the Rome Special name. He the one that came up with the name and I kinda put the twist on it and then I was getting busy ever since then. So that's exactly what happened. That's why I was Mr. Drop-Off. I have plenty of other stories of other things I have done. I also used to sell replica shoes like when I was in Heist. I got a whole bunch of stuff, man. I got a whole bunch of stuff. I got a whole bunch of stuff. Come up below and let me know if you like the story time. Come up below. If you guys, they got to tell you more stories about stuff how you should do to hustling to get that money, baby. And another thing I wanna say is I've always thought outside of the box. I've always did the opposite of what everybody else did. When everybody else was selling dope, I wasn't selling none. I was doing this. When I was at Job Corps, when everybody else was selling weed, I was selling the Swishers. So I always just thought outside the box because I felt like, why do I wanna black everybody else? When everybody else go left, I always go right. That's just what I do. That's why I haven't been buying no real estate properties right now because everybody turned into gurus. Everybody's the biggest investors, everybody. So that's when you wanna try to chill out and interest rates are very high right now. So I've been trying to chill out, but if a good deal come, I am gonna buy something. But I haven't been looking at it. Hey, but like I used to, because it's time to switch it up. So, you know, comment below and let me know if like story time, but to put up the CVS, put the haters to rest, let's go! Y'all here, baby. As you guys can see, we are at the airport. You know what I'm talking about? We came out here and get busy. Guess what? It only took us about an hour of 15 all together to get to Cheddar. We're from the first stop to the second stop to here, baby, hour and 15 minutes. We gonna make 160. I hope you guys are with me. We moved kind of swiftly. We are here waiting for her to get here right now. I hope that she get here early today, baby.  But I hope you guys are joining the video. Again, make sure you spend a subscribe button, make sure you give me a thumbs up and do not skip those ads. We are out here at the airport, getting to this bag, let's go!  And just like that, it is the end of the video. I hope you guys are joining cops. And guess what? When we're out there, we got busy. We made two on two, 28. We came to get that cake. We didn't do good. We did great. We tried to get back to that 200 plus a day to keep these haters away. Honestly, my goal is that one day soon to make a thousand dollars per day, get the club, baby, baby. So comment below and let me know if you think it's gonna happen or not. Again, if you want to subscribe, spend a subscribe button, give me a thumbs up and do not skip those ads. And lock it tomorrow because we get back to this bag. Why we get back to this bag?

Let's go.


Next question is from Matty stew how to know when you're training too much for your goals Yeah, well the easiest way to know if you're doing too much is if you're not progressing now Of course, that could also mean you're doing too little so you think well Which one is it if you're not progressing and your sore and you're tired and you feel run-down You're doing too much not progressing and also knowing that you're working hard Oftentimes means sometimes you're also doing too much Lot of sleep disturbances is a big one for me like that one shows up pretty early I noticed I just I'm restless in the middle of the night I just I wake up a bunch of times and then I realize like I think I'm pushing myself a little too hard another one And I used to notice with female clients Often was was that their inability to regulate their body temperature. So if they were trained too hard They would be either really cold or really hot or just have a poor tolerance to heat or to cold And then I knew like okay, we're probably Overdoing it, but this is a this is something especially if you're a fitness fanatic Start to become aware of this because fitness fanatics are far more likely to do too much than too little now the average person Other way around they could use a little bit more work Well, I also think that the the ultimate goal regardless if you have Specific goals with your physique is to get to this kind of intuitive place of training And if you're always focused on an end goal or result you'll never get there You have to learn to enjoy the process and the journey and do it for other reasons than just oh I've got this race or I've got to do this show or I've got to lose 15% body fat and you're tracking and measuring Then you lose out on the old the whole journey thing and I think that and that's kind of how I'm reading this question right now Because it's kind of worded different right? It's like it's not like how do you know when you're over training the body? It's more like how do you know when you're training too much for your goals? Like when you're I like we should kind of step away from your goal and focus on something else To come back to your goal to you know progress you instead of just hammering this very specific target Yeah, I think when you know you're training too much for your goals is when you have to have goals in order to go to the gym Oh, if you have to have a goal that you you're trying to go after which by the way is very Normal advice that people give like you know you need to set the goals and you need to have all stuff like that It's not a long-term approach. Yeah, it's not it's not bad I'm not saying it's a bad idea But if that's the only way that gets you to the gym is that you have to have this destination in mind that oh I have a competition or I have this race. I'm gonna do it is not a long-term approach No, or I have friends I'm competing with we put all our money in the pot like okay Maybe not a bad strategy to kickstart But you don't want to stay there at one point you need to work out because it enhances all aspects of your life And you enjoy the process of doing that's how I judge it now I judge it by the quality of my life in the present is my workout making my making me better on the podcast Is it making me feel more energized when I get home and hang out with my kids and my wife? Yeah strong and able-bodied. Yeah, does my body feel good or my workouts super enjoyable And then that's how I'll judge it and if those things start to decline in my case It often means I'm doing too much because I'm more on the fitness fanatic side Hey, if you enjoyed that clip you can find the full episode here or you can find other clips over here And be sure to subscribe


It says this, in mathematics, it is important to understand the difference between an equation and an identity. 2x squared plus 3 equals 11 is an equation, and that's because it's only true for certain values, negative 2 and 2 work nothing else does. x plus 1 all squared equals x squared plus 2x plus 1 is an identity. It's true for all legal values of the variable x, and there are all sorts of identities out there. I'll give you one for example that we learned, we learned that the log base a of b plus the log base a of c is the same as the log base a of, we said, oh, adding two logs is the same as multiplying. That's an identity. Now it's only true for legal values, which means that b has to be positive and c has to be positive, but it is true for any positive values of b and c. All sorts of identities out there. What we're going to do is we're going to derive a couple of basic trig ones, and then we're going to use those to prove a lot more. And when we're doing a proof, there's a very simple rule when you're trying to write out a proof. If you think it, write it. If you think it, write it. I've marked these on provincials, and there's always kids who do too much in their head, and unfortunately we have to take marks off because you didn't tell us how you got this step. You're trying to learn, Tyler, how to do an ironclad argument. So I would actually argue as a skill, this is fairly useful, and if you're thinking about going into law, this is a lot of what a good lawyer tries to do anyways. We have the basic trig identities, y over r, x over r, y over x, and x squared plus y squared equals r squared. We're going to use these for a few minutes, but then we're going to chuck them and never use them again, not for doing identities. We're going to use them to develop some more useful ones. We also have the reciprocal ones, and I think you will notice these are on your formula sheet. Are they not, I think, second or third row? Are they not, I think, second or third row, yes? Yes, they are, yes? Okay, you found them? Making sure you know they're there. I made you memorize them because I've learned over the years kids that have to refer to the sheet for those have not done the homework and are going to flunk. But they're there. We can use the basic and the reciprocal trig identities to prove the quotient, and in particular the Pythagorean identities. These two are the ones we're going to be using like crazy. It says, when verifying an identity, turn the page, we have to treat the left side and we'll often abbreviate that as L, S. And the right side, we'll often abbreviate that as RS, separately until both sides represent the same value. Even though there isn't, if you look at example B, even though there is an equal sign here, I can't do my normal equation solving rules. I cannot, for example, minus one from both sides, even if that might be hugely convenient because I'd be assuming they were equal in order to prove that they were equal. But none of my equation solving rules are usable anymore. I have to work on one side or the other side and try and make the one side look just like the other side. So these are sort of brain teasers. These are sort of puzzles. Example one says verify the following identities for the value given. I'm just going to tell you for what it's worth, if you put a 60 degrees there and there and there, it will work. These ones, we're not really going to be doing. I want to get to proving identities. We can use identities to derive other identities. And when proving an identity, we must treat the left side and the right side separately. Ian, what we're going to do very often is what's called a T table. We're going to draw a great big capital letter T. And this line down the middle is telling me, unlike an equation, I can't move back and forth from side to side. It would be nice and there's going to be somewhere you're going, you know, all I want to do is add this over to the other side and I'm done. You can't. And what this one wants us to do, it wants us to prove that tangent is the same as sign over cosine. Oh, by the way, it adds a restriction that says cosine can't be zero. Why can't cosine be zero? Okay, so remember I said for that log one that I made up earlier, the restrictions where my logs can't take a log of a negative, my values had to be positive. There are often for identities restrictions for this one, cos can't be zero because you can't divide by zero. So they've already added that restriction. Okay. Generally, I start with the uglier side first. What looks uglier, that side or that side? The right side, I think it's got a fraction. Okay, let's start with that. And just this once, Dylan, we're going to go back to x, y and r. So sine is what over what? Y over r over cosine is what over what, Miguel or that Tyler? X over r. How do I divide by fraction? So this is the same as y over x, sorry, y over x, Mr. DeWitt. Y over r times r over x. And how do you multiply fractions? Top times, top, bottom times. How many r's do I have on top? One, how many r's do I have on the bottom? And I end up with y over x and oh, pray tell, what is y over x? So I would put an equal sign there, an equal sign there, and my final step, I would say this is tan x. There is a tradition hundreds of years old when you have done a proof, if you're a nerd, to write q, period, e, period, d, period. You may have heard the term q, e, d. It's Latin. I think if my Latin is close, it means which was to be demonstrated. And so back in the Middle Ages, when they were doing the math, they would often write that at the end of a proof. In university, we used to joke that it stood for question easily done and was the biggest lie on earth. In university, I was doing proofs that were three and four pages, not three and four lines. It's an art, you get to it. You're going to find Alex, I will teach you the science of identities. And most of you will develop the art of it. It's in our brains. In fact, psychologists have argued that problem-solving has replaced hunting in our hunter-gatherer evolutionary background. That we get the same adrenaline rush now when we see the solution to a problem as our ancestors 100,000 years ago got when they threw the spear. Kind of creepy, kind of cool. We have just derived a new identity. And this is the one that we're going to memorize. This. It is on your formula sheet. Is it not? It does say that tangent is sign over cosine. Is that correct? I'm going to tell you right now, the kids that don't memorize that are flunking the test. Now, you're not going to have to go out of your way to memorize it. This is going to be one we're going to use so often you will. But I'm going to warn you if test time comes. Oh, by the way, if tangent is sign over cosine, what's cotangent? Cos over side. So you just added two identities and you can now use those. You will never have to fall back to x, y, and r. We never will. We'll use sine and cosine and tangent. Turn the page or next page over. It says, use the basic identities to prove that 1 plus 10 squared equals ck times. I'm not going to do that. We can use x and y and r to do it quite easily. But my concern is you're going to think, oh, that's how we're going to do identities. We don't use x, y, and r. So I'm going to highlight that, though, because I believe that's on the top of your formula sheet. Is it not? Third one over or second one over on the top? Yes.  Little hint. Is that yes? Yes. 1 plus 10 squared equals ck times squared. I don't memorize that. I don't have that one memorized. It's on my sheet. Oh, I do know if I ever see a secant squared. Hey, that showed up somewhere. Or if I ever see a tan squared. Hey, that showed up somewhere. I know that, but I don't know where it should. I go find it. So these are the basic identities. We have the quotient identities. They're on your formula sheet. And then we have the pythagorean identities, the big one. And I'm going to change colors for it. Is this one. Sine squared plus cos squared equals one. It's a fairly easy proof to do. We may end up doing it in the homework, I think. That's one that you will memorize. Because you'll use it over and over and over. But please understand, this actually contains three equations. If sine squared plus cos squared equals one, get the cos squared by itself. What's cos squared the same as? To the math. Yeah. One minus sine squared. What's sine squared the same as? One minus cos squared. These other two are also called pythagorean. By the way, can you see why they're called pythagorean? There's something squared plus something squared equals something squared. The one doesn't have a squared on it. One squared is one. Oh yeah. So these are the pythagorean ones. I don't have those two memorized. I got to be honest. If I see a cosy can't squared somewhere in a question, Jesse.  I'll go hunting for it. Oh, and by the way, what is cotangent squared the same as? Get it by itself. Cosy can't squared minus one. What is tan squared the same as? C can't squared minus one. So each of these, Jesse, contains three other equations. This one I memorized and it's fairly easy. Sine squared plus cos squared equals one. Okay? So these identities are on the formula sheet. We can use these guys and these guys to prove a bunch more. And now we're going to get into the water. Up until now, I've been treading water and you guys have been on the edge of the pool. Are you ready? Take a deep mental breath. Jump in. The water is going to be great. It's going to feel cold at first, but area guarantee within a day or two, is what Michael Phelps would be. Okay? So it says this. We use the basic identities in terms of x, y and r only to prove the quotient and pythagorean. We're not going to use them again. Turn the page. So here is some of the questions that you'll get.  It says this. Express each as a single trig ratio. Then it says use a graphing calculator to verify. I'm not going to do that. We're going to do the algebra. Now this says sine squared over cos squared plus one. Apparently I can write that as a single trig ratio. Well, what was sine over cosine? Have you memorized it already? What was sine over cosine? So what do you think sine squared over cos squared is? Okay. This is equal to tan squared x plus one. And I haven't memorized this, but I know when I see tan squared, that somewhere on my sheet. Go hunt for it. What's tan squared plus one the same as? Oh, have we represented this expression as a single trig ratio? Never done. This would be the kind of multiple choice question you might get. Write this as a single trig ratio. Okay. Rules. If I'm doing a T table, I start with the most complex or the ugliest side first. This is not a T table. They haven't given me two sides. Second rule. Okay. The white piece of paper that I gave you. What was the second hint that I gave you? Stop. Read it louder. Please, Pat. Stop. One, two, three. Plus, what's cotangent in terms of sine and cosine? Cos over sine? Did I just write a fraction? Then I want the next term to be a fraction. Cos x over one. Oh. How do I multiply fractions? Top times, bottom times. Okay, let's do that. So I have sine x over one. If I have one fraction, I want everything to be fractions.  Yes. Over sine x. How do I add fractions together? I need a common denominator. What's on the bottom of my first fraction? One. What's on the bottom of my second fraction? Okay.  This is where you're going to get tolerable at fractions. This is where you won't make me gag at fractions. Some of you may even get proficient. I don't know if you'll get good. Some of you may get proficient. We need to find a common denominator. What's my common denominator going to be here? Sine. Multiply a one by to change it into a sine. Same to the top and bottom. I'm going to multiply the top by sine x and the bottom by sine x, and you must write that. Stop. Look up. Some of you were taught wrong or lazily in grade eight or elementary school, and you're just going to do that. I'm taking marks off because that is wrong. You're not multiplying by sine. You are multiplying by... One. Sine over sine. One. You're not changing the question, and if there's one common error I need to beat out of you, it's the temptation to multiply by something other than a one. All we're going to be doing is multiplying by ones. Funny looking ones, but ones. So I'm going to be really, really fussy, and I'm going to say, make sure you write that in. Have you seen it yet? Did you get your nerdy adrenaline rush yet? You see it? Sine squared. And then this is already over sine x? Yes? So it's just going to end up there. Have you seen it yet? Have you seen it? You see it yet? What is sine squared plus cos squared? This is one over sine x. And I'll pray tell, what is one over sine x as a single solitary trig function? Cosy kin. There you go. You're going to find when you get good at this, three lines, or three lines, or if you get really good four lines from the end, suddenly you'll see it. I hope you get that nerdy adrenaline rush. I hope, I hope, I hope. Example two. Express two tan a, all over one plus tan squared in terms of sine a and cos a, and write in simplest form. All right. How many trig functions do I have in this question? Two? Tell me what two they are, please. Ten. Sorry. Ready? Erwin, what trig function do I have in this question? Say it with a big loud voice for once, my friend. Ten. Darn right. So Pat, how many trig functions do I have in this question? One. So I'm not going to write everything in terms of sine and cos. And I'm, you know what? The bottom there is screaming out at me. One plus tan squared. That's familiar. What? Two. Tan a, all over secant squared a. How's that help? How many trig functions do I have now? Two. This is the kind of halfway area. When I have two, if I can't do anything else, I'll rewrite everything in terms of sine and cos. So you're ready? What's tangent in terms of sine and cos? Two. What's two tangent in terms of sine and cos? Two sine over cos. Not two over two. Not two over two. The two goes on top. All over. What's secant in terms of sine and cos? One over cos. What's secant squared in terms of sine and cos? One over cos squared. Okay. Wait a minute. Isn't this one fraction divided by another fraction? Is that why you snuck this in last unit? How do I divide by a fraction?  Right? How many cos do I have on top? Two. How many on the bottom? How many left and where? And in fact, this simplifies to two sine a cos a. Now, did we match the instructions? It wanted us to write it in terms of sine and cos. Have we written it in terms of sine and cos? Have we written it in simplest form? Do you see any squares or anything that we could do magic with? Now, you don't know this yet, but see if you can find it on your formula sheet and you can find it on your formula sheet. So, this is actually the sine of two theta. This is actually a period horizontal compression by a factor of we're not going to do double angles yet. We'll get to those. But for what it's worth, eventually when you see that, you're like, I know that somewhere, we're just going to be dealing with the top two or three rows, the Pythagorean and the reciprocals for really quite a while before we bring in the sum and difference and the double angle identities. It says factor. It says complete the next questions. What we are going to actually do is turn please to the next lesson. Lesson six. What I'm going to be doing for the next couple of days is actually it's a lot of talking. I'm going to be working through a few of these with you each day and you're going to find all of a sudden different ones of you are going to be going, I got this. What I've done, actually what another teacher did is they've gone through every provincial exam going back to 1994 and they lifted the trig identities electronically. I have a 12 page, 25 trig identity big package for you. If you get through that and all of you will, it's going to be one of the homework assignments for this unit, you're in really good shape. So you're ready? Oh, it gives you hints. My hints are better. I got an extra one. It says, consider this statement here. First of all, it says verify the statement is true. It is, I'm not going to do that. But if you put a pi by three on your calculator there and there, type this in and press equals. You get the same decimal as if you put a pi by three there and a pi by three there, type that in and press equals. B, it says use a graphing calculator. I'm not going to do that. But for what it's worth, Jesse, if you graph this as Y1 as Y2, only one graph would show up on your screen. It'd be the same line overlapping twice. What we are going to do is prove these algebraically. So I need to copy this right here. You guys can too. We're going to write one over cos theta minus cos theta. And we're trying to show that it's equal to sin theta tan theta. Here is our first identity. You got that little hint sheet.  So the hints, I said this, start with the more complex side first. This is a bit of an unusual one, one Victoria. Both of these sides look ugly to me. This one a bit more so because of fractions, but they both look ugly. What that really tells me is I'm probably going to have to work on both sides along the way. What did step two say, Victoria? What I'm really be looking for is like squares. That was step two. Okay, step, what, I thought that seemed wrong. What a step, not from the workbook, from my hint sheet, which I said is far better than the workbook. Ready, scene one, act one, take two. What does step two say? Stop, I see three. I think the first thing I'm going to do is rewrite this in terms of sine and cos. Is this already in terms of cos? Leave it. Is this already in terms of cos? Leave it, ooh. Sine theta, what is tangent? Sine theta over cos theta. Did I just get a fraction? Then I want everything to be fractions. Never have some and some not. In fact, I'll be honest, look up, look up. This is driving me crazy. I have to do that. That is just making things so much tougher that I don't clearly see what's on top and what's on the bottom. By the way, what's another way to write sine times sine? This side here works out to sine squared theta over cos, and I think I'm stuck. I'm going to stop there. When you're doing identities, one of the best things you can do is always move your eyes from the left side to the right side, glance at the left, glance at the right, because I've got to see how many fractions do I have on the right side? One, how many fractions do I have on the left side? You know what I should probably do? Try writing this as one. Do you see how I figured that out just by looking? So, we're adding and subtracting fractions. We need a common denominator. What's my common denominator going to be? Stop. Look up. Here, I'm not done, but I now know I'm on the right track. I have to be. That can't be a fluke.  I got my nerdy adrenaline rush about as soon as I wrote that down. Maybe you see it yet? I don't know. I want this to be over cosine. Is it already over cosine? And we just drop it down. Oh, and the minus sign would drop and change it into a cosine. Top and bottom. I've yelled at you about just writing it on the top. I'll change colors. I'm going to put a cos there and a cos there. So that puts this over cos. And what is cos cos? Do you see it yet? Do you see it yet? Do you see it yet? What is one minus cos squared? Look at your sheet. What? Director, you guys, I had a student from Germany last year who was doing Latin. I don't know if you guys are. Am I close? Pardon me? Okay. Am I close? It's quarter. But I've never heard it pronounced in English. So I don't know quite how it goes. Oh, the Americans will put a little by the way, they'll color in a square because the Americans don't like having to learn a second to me. It's me screaming at the world. Success. Turn the page. Oh, sorry. Don't turn the page. Go back. Restrictions. Cos can't be zero. Right? No restrictions. No restriction. Tangent always has the restriction in built in because tangent is sign over cos sign. Cos sign can't be zero. Oh, I already said that. Okay. Now turn the page. Okay. It says consider this one. Check it for a variable. It's true. I'm not going to bother doing that. Use a graphing calculator. Trust me. If you graph this and graph that, they're the same graph. Forget it. I want to do this algebraically. So I have sin theta over tan theta. I want to show that that equals cos theta. Let's begin. I think I'll be tackling this side. In fact, I don't think I can do anything with the right hand side. I think cos theta is just going to stay cos theta. So when it says begin with the uglier side first here. Victoria, what was hint number two from my sheet, please? Stop. One, two, three. Oh, yes. Keep reading. Rewrite. Rewrite everything in terms of sin and cos. Okay. This is going to be sin theta all over what's tangent in terms of sin and cos. Oh, how do I divide by that fraction? So this is going to be sin theta times cos theta over sin theta.   So I can clearly see what's on the top and what's on the bottom. And how do I multiply fractions? Oh, pray tell. Top times, bottom times. How many signs do I have on the top? How many signs do I have on the bottom? Dylan, technically over one, do I need to write the over one? Say no. I have cos theta equals cos theta. Got to be honest, those first two are barely in the kiddie pool. Shallow end though. Now, here we go. Oh, restrictions. tan theta can't be zero because I can't divide by zero. And tangent has its built-in restriction as well because tangent has a denominator that's invisible. What's always in the denominator of tangent? cos theta can't be zero. Sometimes on the multiple choice, all we'll ask for are the restrictions because they figure if you can find those, you can break the identity apart. So that's why I'm practicing those. Example three. Ha! Here we go. Let's prove this. Suggestions. What was hint number one? I think I'm doing most of my work on the left side. Yes? Okay. What was hint number two? I have more than two trig functions. Although the left side is all sine and cos, what's one divided by cosy-cant? If sine is, sorry, if cosy-cant is one over sine, one over cosy-cant, or cosy-cant, flipping cosy-cant, we'll flip the one over sine. This is just sine x. And I'm pretty sure I'm done on the right side. Now Matt is scouring his sheet, wildly looking for stuff.  The hint sheet, the hint sheet, the hint sheet? What's hint number three? Do we have any identities that have a cubed in them? So I'm definitely not using this. We do have some with a squared, but not a sine without a squared and a cos with a squared. What's step four, Matt? What? What's the first thing that you always, always, always, always, always, always? Is this why you worked that in, Mr. Dewick? Darn right. Always look for. There is one. You see it? You see it? You see it? You see it? What? And when I factor a sine x out of the first term, Matt, what's going to be left behind? Stop, stop. When I factor a sine out of the first term, what's going to be left behind? Cos squared, and the plus sign would drop down. And when I factor a sine out of a sine cubed, by the way, have you got it? You see it? Have you got it? What's going to be left behind?  Now you would have to show that step. Shallow end ain't so bad. Water's kind of nice. Turn the page. You ever been in a pool? Start in the shallow end. You start walking, you start walking, you start walking, and all of a sudden you come in your child's life to a very significant moment. What? The drop off. Right? The pool, all of a sudden, goes steep. Here it is. It says, prove that this is an identity. That's my short abbreviated way to do a t-table, by the way. I think it's fairly obvious, which is the uglier side. We're going to be working most of it on the left. How many different trig functions? How many different trig functions? We're going to, first thing, rewrite everything in terms of sine and cos. But since I'm going to be spending most of my time on the left, and since I noticed there's only one thing here, I'm going to tackle this first. What if I just said cotangent? What's cotangent in terms of sine and cos? Cos over sine. What's one over cotangent? What's on top on the right-hand side here? What's on the bottom? As I'm working this, if suddenly a cos sign shows up on the bottom, I'll probably smile. Or if suddenly a sign shows up on the top, I'll probably smile. Sine a, plus, what am I going to write instead of tangent? Did I just write a fraction? Stop everything a fraction. I will never have some and some not. All over. Stop everything a fraction. I will never have some and some not. Now that looks ugly, but I want to show you a great trick. It's called clearing complex fractions. I'm going to zoom in here. This is a complex fraction. What's a complex fraction? A fraction on top of a fraction. Now, technically, this was also a complex fraction. Technically, where was it, Mr. Dewick? It was on the previous lesson. I'm not going to go finding it. Technically, because this is sine over one, this is a complex fraction. What I really mean by complex fraction is, not when you have a single solitary fraction over a single solitary fraction, how do I divide by fraction with multiple? But when you have multiple fractions over multiple fractions, there is a way in one line to get rid of all of the yuckiness. You may have been shown this skill in grade 10 or not. What you do is you look at each small fraction, this guy, this guy, this guy, and this guy, and you look at the denominator. Call it out. Call it out. Call it out. Call it out. You're going to multiply the top and the bottom by that common denominator. What is the common denominator of all those minis? In this case, cos a. If I had a cos squared here, it would be cos squared. Or if I had a sine here, it would be sine a cos a. But I'm going to multiply, again, the top and the bottom. Don't write this down. Watch. Alex, put your pen down. I'm trying to avoid a bunch of common mistakes. Now, when I say multiply the top and bottom, a lot of students do this. Okay. Don't write this down. This is dumb. And they've just confused themselves because how many levels does this fraction have? Four. See it? How many levels did they write here? Dumb. I'm going to multiply the top and bottom by the common denominator. But I'm going to write it like this. Cos a over one over cos a over one. So I can clearly see what's on the top on the top and what's on the bottom on the top. So I can clearly see what's on the top in the bottom row and what's on the bottom in the bottom row. Now, is that still cos over cos? Yes. Is that still technically a one? Yes. So am I changing anything? No. Don't write this down yet. I know Alex, you want to reach for your pencil. Relax. If you watch it and then you rewrite it because I'm going to freeze the screen, you can try and do it from memory and we're going to reinforce. Don't write this down yet. But here's what happens. I multiply. What's cos a times sin a over one times one? Well, that's going to work out to sin a cos a. I'm okay with that. Plus what's cos a times sin a over one times cos a? Or how many cos is on top? How many cos is on the bottom? Sin a. All over. So I've done this. I've done that. I'm going to do this. I'm going to do that. What's cos a times one? Plus what's cos a times cos? Now that may look uglier to you. It's not. I guarantee it. First of all, how many levels do we have now? Nicer. Does anybody see it yet, by the way? GCF on the top, GCF on the bottom. What's your GCF on the top? What's your GCF on the bottom? I wonder if the rest of the cancer we'll find out. Anyways, now write that down. That's how you get rid of a complex fraction. You find what your common denominator is of all the little mini denominators and you multiply the top and bottom by that. But please, trust me, put it over one and over one so you're multiplying by four levels. You'll make far less dumb mistakes along the way. And once you've written that down, put your pencils down again and look up so that I know you've got it copied out. But I'll wait till everyone has it copied out. Good? Good? More waiting? No problem. There is another way to do this. What you could have done is combine this as one fraction by finding a common denominator. Combine this as one fraction by finding a common denominator.  How do I divide by fraction, flip it and multiply? It will get you to this same line. But what I did in one will take you three lines. And I just worry that the more lines, the more room there is for sloppy mistakes. And that's, I think we've noticed in Math 12, our biggest enemy on tests is sloppy mistakes, right? So this complex fraction trick is well worth learning. Now pick up your pens again, GCF. And I'll have a cos A plus sin A sin over GCF. Oh, just be one. Thank you, it would be. Did I say that the biggest enemy is sloppy mistakes? Yes. And I'll factor out a cos A in the bottom. And I get one plus cos. Can I cancel those? Are those identical brackets? Is one plus cos the same as cos plus one? Yes. Now if it was one minus cos, that's not the same as cos minus one. Order makes a difference when you're subtracting, but not when you're adding. This cancels, this cancels. And hopefully you'd clue in that it had to because what do I have sitting by itself right here? What do I have sitting by itself right here? One more. And then I'm going to give you the big massive assignment and I'll tell you a few you can start to work on. But it's going to take a little bit of practice. I realize that. Five. Prove this. Okay. Which side's uglier? Left side. Although that right side, I think, well, I will say this. Cosy can't squared. Is that on your formula sheet somewhere at the top? What? Okay, I'm just going to kind of keep in mind that that's one plus cotin squared. If I end up with that over here, we'll see. How many trig functions in this equation? In this identity? I only see two. So although I was initially thinking about writing cosy can't squared as one over sin squared, I'm not going to just yet. I see a squared and I see a one.  What is c can't squared minus one the same as? Oh, I like that. So you're telling me this is c can't squared theta all over tan squared theta. Okay. Oh. Now how many trig functions do I have in this equation? Now let's try rewriting everything in terms of sin and cos. So c can't goes with cos c can't squared will be one over cos squared all over. Tan squared, well tangent is sin over cos. So tan squared is going to be sin squared over cos squared. And cosy can't is one over sin squared. Suggestions? Flip and multiply. Yeah, okay, let's try that. Have you seen it yet? Have you got nerdy adrenaline rush? You see it? You see it? You see it? We're going to get this. One over cos squared theta times cos squared theta over sin squared theta. And how many cos squareds do I have on the top? One. Well, oh, sorry. How many cos do I have on the top? Two. How many cos do I have on the bottom? Two. How many cos squareds do I have on the top? One. How many cos squareds on the bottom? One. Regardless, woohoo. And lo and behold, are these the same? There's a science and an art to these. You're going to see some, oh, rule of thumb, by the way, usually the uglier they look, the easier they fall apart. Some of the toughest identities look simple to start out, but because they look so simple, there's nothing to work with. Usually if it's complicated, there's like eight different ways to get to the final answer and you're going to find one of them. Okay? It says, using identities to solve equations, we're not going to do that. Instead, I have a lovely present for you.

My new favorite measuring tape, the FastCap Lefty-Righty. Let's do a little discussion of measuring tape. Never thought much about them. Didn't think there was a lot of difference in them. Kind of like the little Stanley. It's kind of a little nice and compact. You know, they all have the lock on them, the thumb lock. Had another Stanley, a little bulkier. No special features on them. Worked. Had a little trouble trying to get things hooked on to my work pants, you know, when I needed to. Picked up this longer one, 25 foot, 16 foot Milwaukee. Milwaukee was kind of nice. I liked that brand for other things, so I thought, well, that must be a good one. And then I found one at Husky and an extra feature that some of these others didn't have.  So if I pull this out, I can squeeze the bottom. And that would hold it there until I let go. Then I found one that's a little special. And so I recommend this. So this is my FastCap of the Lefty-Righty. It's got a nice marker on it. You can read it from the left side or the right side. It's all in inches, so that can be a disadvantage. But they have one for millimeters too, if that's the way you work. Got this press on it on the bottom, like the Husky did. So it's got that advantage. But here's what it has that the others don't have. It has a writing surface on it. So if I wanted to take a measurement and I look at it and I want to write it down, take it over somewhere, I can write it on that surface. And that's very erasable. Furthermore, when I go to write it, perhaps I realize or when I go to do a mark, perhaps I realize that my pencil is dull or broken or whatever. So this little puppy has right on it a pencil sharpener. So I don't have to run, find my pencil sharpener. I don't have to grab another pencil. I don't have to deal with anything. I just sharpen it right there. Now I've got a nice fine line every time I go to do a mark. And then one last feature that sells me on it. Instead of when I go to clip it, I can press against the top lever here. And that opens this wide enough to actually get on my paths. So this is my new measuring tape, small workshop guy, signing off.


Hey, I'm Drew and you are watching or just listening to the anxious truth This is the podcast that covers all things anxiety anxiety disorders and anxiety recovery So if you're struggling with things like agoraphobia or panic disorder, this is the place for you.  I have a special guest who's gonna help me answer that question. So let's go Hello everybody welcome back to the anxious truth. This is podcast episode number two three two We are recording in early November of 2022 today. We're gonna answer the question Is there a place for hypnosis in anxiety recovery? It's a good question It gets asked all the time because they know many of you are sometimes marketed to by Hypnotists and hypnotherapists who say that hypnosis is an anxiety cure or a fix for anxiety disorders Is that true or not? Well, I asked my friend Emma Garrick to join me today on the podcast You know may know Emma on Instagram as the dot anxiety whisperer Emma is tops. She's well-trained. She's ethical She's a good person. She's a friend of mine. I trust her Emma is a qualified Psychotherapist and also a clinical hypnotherapist practicing in Scotland So she gave us a really great overview of how hypnosis can fit into the process What it is supposed to do what it definitely does not do how to have realistic expectations and how to be a critical consumer of Hypnosis if you choose to include that as part of your approach to recovery So before we bring on bring Emma on and she was great You guys are gonna dig this just a quick reminder that the anxious truth is more than just this podcast episode Or this video if you're watching on YouTube There's a ton of stuff that I have for you at the anxious truth calm. That's my website You should go check it out.

Thank you for all of that. So let's get on to the chat with Emma We went for about 30 minutes.  Hello, Em Hi there, Drew Thank you so much for having me on your podcast Well, thank you for coming Emma for those of you do not know Emma Emma Garrick Emma is a psychotherapist in Scotland And just a lovely human being We did a lot of work that a year ago together and then we just sort of lost touch So it's very nice to be connected with you again and be working together So yeah, it's nice to drift into each other again once in a while every once a year whether we need it or not, right? Yeah, definitely So as I mentioned in the intro Emma is a qualified psychotherapist Emma is also a hypnotherapist And if I use the wrong terms, please jump in and correct me, right? You you have qualifications as a hip Okay, yeah, I'm a clinical clinical hypnotherapist Okay I want to talk about that because I don't know what that is and I need you to explain because I think this is gonna be really important discussion here The reason why I asked you on and we were talking with this I'll look behind the curtain. We did talk about this before we hit the record button But I know many people in the community want to know What about hypnosis? Is that a therapy and they want to know because hypnotists? I don't know the difference between a hypnotist and a hypnotherapist. Maybe you could tell me that I don't know Often we'll say. Oh, yeah, I treat anxiety I treat weight loss and smoking cessation and addiction and relationships and hypnosis is applied to everything So they often get approached by practitioners that will say. Oh, yeah Yeah, I do anxiety and they want to know is that work? Yeah, and I said I gotta get somebody I trust here and that would be em so Okay, give me the reader's digest version here hypnotist clinical hypnot therapist What does all mean? Well, it's an interesting one because Hypnotherapy is the act of performing the therapy Hypnotists you get stage hypnotists, which is what we See in the likes of Paul McKenna. I think he's one, isn't he? Yeah, we see stage hypnosis and for some people I think when they think of hypnotherapy, that's kind of what they're thinking about is this, you know Somebody's going to make me perform like a monkey and then you get lots of different branches of people who practice Hypnosis and for the most part and in Psychotherapy which is where we are and we will see people who are trained in maybe clinical Hypnotherapy or they might be trained in Ericssonian and hypnotherapy or they might be trained in a few other Approaches but for me Clinical hypnotherapy is my background and that's what I've always practiced and some Practices of hypnotherapy are stand-alone in that that will be the treatment modality that that person will only practice However for the likes of somebody like a psychotherapist, we might be trained in a hypnotherapy We might be trained in a an EMDR. We might be trained in CBT, we might be trained in lots of different disciplines and modalities and We will pull that all together as an approach for anxiety so or Whatever you might be treating a depression or PTSD, whatever it might be So there are differences in terms of Styles of hypnotherapy that you can be Seeing advertised as a consumer There are also different Training programs that the hypnotherapist will undertake in order to become qualified as a hypnotherapist and I think what you and I were talking about just a short time ago was the fact that there's some sort of confusion out there and probably in terms of How hypnotherapy can be marketed really for people who have anxiety Yeah. Yeah, so for people that, you know, we're talking to with panic disorder agoraphobia OCD Epicondriasis all those things. Yes the way it's marketed to them is in many times. I think as a standalone modality hypnosis treats the disorder Yeah, and it's kind of pitched as that it's kind of pitched as Hypnosis will be the thing that helps you cure this problem that you have And I think that's where you had approached me was to kind of have a conversation with you about well Where are we with this? What what actually does that mean? So I just want to go back a wee bit because I'm all one for sort of laying Foundations and putting a bit of the the history together for well, where does hypnosis actually come from? What is it that we're actually talking about here when we're talking about hypnosis and And we'll we'll weave in maybe a wee bit about, you know How the training and what people need to be mindful of when they're looking for a practitioner if it's something that they then decide that they want to experiment as part of their recovery with because In my mind and I'll be up front hypnosis is a great therapy. Okay, so I'm But there are limitations with it and I want to be clear about what the expected and should be from consumers perspective in terms of when they go hunting or they're approached by somebody who is offering this as a solution for their anxiety so hypnosis was the god of sleep and Hypnosis is Hypnosis has just sort of derived from there. There was actually a Scottish doctor who was one of the first champions of hypnosis It usually involves using a lot of suggestions that will help induce a state of relaxation and calmness and we use a lot of imagery and Into weaved in there. There will be a lot of suggestions which are Made towards the subconscious element of our minds to help us Alter our behaviors and our patterns of thinking and our emotional state and some of our behaviors So when I'm talking to you just now drew the very conscious part of your mind this part here is listening to me It's watching my face. It's reading my eyes. It's very very aware of what's happening between you and I in this conversation But then there's another subconscious part in your brain that is probably Maybe quite enjoying The sound of my voice or is thinking actually it's quite nice to catch up with her. I've not seen her in quite a while and It's not necessarily You know Listening to everything that I'm saying but it may be getting a bit soothed and a bit calmed by the way that I'm talking The tone that I'm using and maybe just some of the suggestions that I'm making about you becoming a bit more relaxed, right? and this is This is the beauty of a A Hypnotherapy session is that quite quickly we can make suggestions about how people could be feeling and we can use certain Tones and pauses and how we're going to induce a state of relaxation And when we're doing that there are certain parts of our brain that start to respond And we know this because we can measure this and we do this using certain scanning techniques So we've done a lot of imaging. There was an amazing bit of research that was published this year and They were looking at the functional changes in brain activity when people have used hypnosis so they did a massive sample of about 10,000 pieces of research and they Basically concluded that yes, there are Significant changes that happen in lots of different places in the brain And so when we're looking at anxiety for instance the areas that correlate with activity when we're anxious So all of the overactivity that's happening in certain regions That actually gets interrupted and actually starts to calm down and We also know that the reaching of our brain which is Responsible for helping our parasympathetic nervous system, which is our the system that we want to kick in to drive is also Activated which is basically going to help us with our breathing and our heart rate and it's going to relax the muscles in our body So for hypnosis to be I'm Effective we need to make sure that we are in The 10% of people who can be hypnotized That's a fascinating Statistic, right? Yeah, not everybody is open to suggestion Not everybody is a willing participant in hypnosis Okay, and I think there's this preconception and there's certainly nothing that I see very obviously in Marketing material that says if you're one of the lucky 10% Hypnosis might work for you. No, no one ever says that I I have so much respect for the fact that you said out loud on a pretty big podcast 10% It's actually a low number. I did not expect it to be that low Yeah, because when you think about it one of the one of the biggest I suppose one of the biggest fears that a lot of people have with something like hypnosis is that they're gonna come and There's gonna be this loss of control because you're handing control over to somebody else We're talking about our brain and when we've got an anxiety as you know, like in a generalized anxiety or we've got maybe some OCD or something and we're maybe a bit Magical thinking can kick in for a lot of us. We worry we can worry about, you know The effect that some of these things are gonna have on us even people with health anxiety We worry about taking medication. We're worrying about what's going on in here as well Yeah, and I think one of the the barriers to Hypnosis is this fear of the loss of control But one of the best things to remember is that actually only 10% of us can ever be hypnotized anyway That's amazing. You've got to be you've got to be a willing participant in this process But again when you think about it, you've got to be a willing participant in any recovery process for it It's for any type of anxiety recovery to be effective. You've got to play your part in this. Yep I'm wondering that's such a good statistic But I'm wondering in a population of people and in any sort of mental health issue clearly people are looking for improvement That's not news But in our population where people are sometimes really desperate to just feel better Does that make them a little bit more open to that like I'm I really want this to work Will that make a difference? Do you think in your experience? Yeah? I think it will do but I think what I see is that you get The people who are so desperate for it to work that they hand over a lot of responsibility to the practitioner and Then when it's not working, they start to lose hope Yeah So I think there's an obligation on the part of the clinician to make sure that those people know that this isn't failing Because of anything that they are doing or anything that the clinician may be doing there's a high chance and probability that they're just not in the the 10% and It's like, you know, I'm not an expert on this subject area. So I don't want to get to to bog down in it, but it's like recently all of the News that surfaced about SSRIs or antidepressants, you know, we don't really know how they work But there was research that was also done recently which compared which was looking at the The effectiveness, I suppose of hypnotherapy was In comparison to benzodiazepines in terms of inducing that state of relaxation and they find that they kind of were the same I'm not surprised by that Yeah, yeah, I'm not surprised by that. It's great. That's it's very interesting Okay, interesting Well, here's where I think and this is great. This is great information. I'm actually learning a lot here I'm happy if no one listens and I just listen. So I think People are hopeful what I hear most of the time is will it stop my panic attacks when I you know Is it will it give me tools? How does it work? Like Well, somebody teach me something or you're somehow put me in a state of diagnosis that will calm me down and make me Not panic anymore make me not afraid of cancer anymore What is the answer to I know I know what you say What I would say is Yes a little bit, but probably it's not going to do all of that Okay It's absolutely a tool that you can turn to to help you regulate your nervous system It's absolutely a tool that you can help to get you out of that really intense wind up My brain's going 90 miles an hour. I feel incredibly panicked at the moment.  Yeah, um It's it's going to help you to probably pave the way for you to learn how to look after yourself as part of your recovery from that site type of disorder and And It's It's a useful thing to learn for yourself. It's a useful tool to add to a tool kit Right, yeah, when we first met and you mentioned hypnosis to me the thing that stuck in my head is well Sometimes I find it useful as a tool in therapy It can help people relax enough to be able to face the panic and do the exposures That's stuck in my head. Wow, that makes a whole lot of sense. That's not whatever Yeah, that makes so much sense. Yeah, so when you're went as you and I both know because we've both been there with our anxiety pretty heightened at times when your head is Going around like a washing machine out of control and when your body is jumping around with lots of different symptoms You want anything to work? Mm-hmm You just want something to work. You just want something to help you and Hypnotherapy can help if you find something that you're Amygdala responds to and this is why I think my reputation Became quite popular because I happen to have quite a pleasant voice so that other people tell me this by the way I'm not telling myself this and People would say to me about there's just something about your voice that I like and I turn it on when I'm feeling really anxious and The reason I think for that is because there there is a quality in some of the Instruments that some of us are gifted with okay, and It's not that And lots of people can practice hypnosis and lots of people can benefit from hypnotherapy but There are certain reasons why some Hypnotherapists are get more results than others Yeah, okay, and I think the thing is When you're in a state a heightened state of panic or you're just in a heightened state with Intrusive thoughts or whatever might be happening in in your world at that time If you can go to something familiar Something that can calm you and something that can soothe you There isn't a replacement for that. There's not a generic something There's something about that that helps your brain feel relaxed and at ease and that can sometimes for some people be gold Yeah, but you've got to find what that thing is in a voice or in an instrument that you're listening to Yeah, no that makes such good sense that and you know what I'm loving about this There's I'm not hearing any crazy promises of it one that comes right down now And I always use this phrase Navigation not eradication and this seems like an excellent navigation tool if you can key into it and it works for you Yeah, but I'm also hearing which What I am also hearing which is interesting is maybe I'm not so now I'm a client and I'm in your therapy room Maybe I'm not the 10% for whom that's effective But it doesn't mean that the way you conduct yourself in session in the way you talk to me might not achieve similar effects Am I right in sort of yeah leaning that from what you're talking about here? absolutely absolutely and We I've had some of the most resistant people in front of me who clearly I can tell they are not going to really Respond very well to hypnosis, but they respond well to me. Yeah, I could see that We talked about how it's so the therapy your relationship with the therapist and finding somebody that you connect with is so important And this could be part of that I get that absolutely, it's a massive part of trust and Building that report and having somebody sit in front of you who is empathetic to what is happening to you Paves a runway that last for a very long time if you are needing some kind of Reassurance, which I know is not what we would offer, but Resurance and soothing and comfort Yeah, but I'm sorry. Am I stepped on you there? No, what I was gonna say is even Even though I know we don't want to offer reassurance I get that and it's not necessarily about will come to me And I'll soothe you But and I say this all the time when my brain is telling me that this is urgent One of the things I really need is somebody to reflect back. It's really not It's really not urgent and some and I any all who listening who like to say that I calm you down I don't know how you can listen to Emma talk and then say I calm you down I don't know how that would be. I could see that What you would be ideally suited though Like I might reflect that back to me It's I'm gonna give you a bit of a confident shoulder shrug like I know you think you're burning, but I prompt me This is not a problem Your way to do it might be a little bit different The voice mannerisms and I could see where hypnosis could be part of that for the people who respond to that This is not a you can get through it and this can help you learn that Mm-hmm, and I think that was part of the reason why Well, it's part of the reason that my name was became what it is now And it was part of the reason why I started to create the whispers as well because I knew that you could have quite a Profound effect in a relatively short space of time on somebody through giving just something Because not everybody can cope with like you say, uh, it's alright, you know, you're gonna be okay Sometimes there's just that neediness of I need something a bit more I need I need something that's just gonna take away the sharp edges of this because Well, as you know, you you you see this yourself, you know, you don't need me to boil your cabbage for you Oh, that's a that's a it seems like quite a Scottish saying I'm gonna use I'm not gonna boil your cabbage for you. Let's talk a little bit about And this is great again. I appreciate this so much. Hopefully you guys are learning from this but now As a consumer of therapy of therapeutic services regardless the US Scotland. It doesn't matter What should I be looking for? well mm-hmm and It's interesting because in in the UK, we have nice who are in the National Institute for Health and Care Excellent and the excellent sorry and they wrote guidelines Okay, and I want to refer back to those guidelines because these are the ones that I practice by that I have listed on my website and they basically They do recognize and complementary or alternative therapies of which hypnotherapy Falls under the bracket of in the treatment of anxiety disorders. However They act they actually discourage the use of hypnotherapy without utilizing medical medication first or at the same time So what they're trying to do there I think my interpretation of this is They're trying to discourage people from thinking that they should be using Hypnotherapy as a standalone therapy That makes that right. That's my that's my interpretation of that go and get yourself checked over by somebody and get yourself set up with some help psychological help and Use hypnotherapy as part of a program Yeah, that's very sound advice. You can't really argue and They're not explicit in that because there are a lot of People who hypnotherapy is what they practice and I'm not here to discredit any Practitioners of hypnotherapy because I know fantastic Practitioners of hypnotherapy and that is what they do, but I also know that their clients are Working with other people as well as part of a multidisciplinary approach, okay? So it's not a case of go and find a psychotherapist who happens to practice hypnotherapy That is absolutely something that you can do and if you get that combination, that's great. Okay? You can see a hypnotherapist and you can see another therapist and you can have your functional doctor or whoever else you happen to be seeing Yeah But I would be certainly looking for somebody who has Knowledge specific specialist knowledge of your anxiety disorder yeah, and working practice of helping people with that and I would certainly be asking the hypnotherapist if they create their own scripts because this is another important thing you can buy scripts in A Book and you could read those scripts, but you could have practitioners reading the same scripts Okay, you don't want the same script read to you. You want something that tackles your fear using words that make sense to your head and You want that tailored to what your needs are and You should be always keen to make sure that your Therapist Takes the time to record your session for you and offers you that so that you can take that with you. Yeah Okay, and hypnotherapy for the treatment. It's not anxiety so multi-faceted So it's not a case of a generic anxiety Hypnotherapy session it needs to tackle the problem in different chunks Just the way that you would in a psychotherapy treatment program Okay, so if somebody's saying to you here's your recording for Anxiety that's it Just be a bit cautious about accepting that that is it because the chances are that's not it. That's Something that's been given to you off the shelf rather than created for you specifically I Sometimes do see that now people will bring me I can never pass judgment because I don't know enough You know and I wouldn't do that, but sometimes it is that look well. I was offered, you know, it's four sessions It's a thousand dollars, you know or seven hundred dollars and it's four sessions. I'm good That sort of sounds like the generic kind of thing. Okay, no problem Those of you watching the video can read eyes. That's fine. Yeah, I get it. Yeah just I my caution would always be, you know people charge a lot of money for things nowadays and Part of the reason is because they sometimes put the onus of the fact that these things don't work back on to the the user and I kind of that boils my cabbage a wee bit and Just always be careful if people are offering you packages at very large prices, especially any cultures or any any therapists because and You want to make sure that you've got an outcome Yeah, and I could see where You train the way you are and you encounter that resistant person or somebody just doesn't respond to hypnosis It's not the only tool you have in your kit Which makes a huge difference of all I have is hypnosis and it doesn't work Thousand dollars and now I have to come to account on that so I could see where that would be a little bit of a Tenduous situation. Yeah. Yeah, it makes sense So so we won't be much longer, but give me a rough idea because I know everybody wants to know So now you're in session. What does it look like? I think so many people like is there a moment where it's like, okay? Now we're going to do hypnosis. Is there is it an actual? I'm probably asking you a huge question that you cannot answer in five minutes. No, it's it's um It's a lovely gentle process and if you're anxious before having your hypnosis, that's really normal it's very common and Some therapists if you're in the room with them might put headphones on you They might put you in a chair that slightly reclines. They might offer you The warmth of a blanket because sometimes you will be lying there for 40-50 minutes and you can get a bit cool around the edges and You will be taken through What we call the induction and then there will be a deepener and these are just terms To kind of chunk down the process of getting somebody into a more relaxed state And it's quite often the case that your mind might wander and you might wonder well, is this working? Is it happening?  You will be conscious throughout it and Then you will come to a point where You'll be getting counted up from what will have been your trance and interwoven into that session will have been Suggestions for how you can Hopefully move forward from whatever it is that you're trying to deal with during the session It's always worth while making sure before you do the session that you understand what the output of that session is going to be okay, and Just to make sure that following the session you drink a nice bit of water and that you have a quite quiet and steady day That you took the mystery right out of it It's really just you know, it's it's just a wee storytelling session ultimately I'm always with a lovely ending and it's just quite pleasant It's it's a good way to spend a day and you know I used to really particularly enjoy in my sessions when I my anxiety was really high and My OCD was awful and I used to go and my therapist would do exactly what I've described to you And I would get to the end and I'd be thinking I'll just start over again, please Best break I've had in three days I gotta believe just the effectiveness of that Just giving somebody a break where they can come away from it for an hour or whatever the session is that by itself Would be worth the price of admission even if that was all it accomplished. I think for many people they'd be thrilled with Yeah, totally. I mean, that's that's the best bit about it as you do at the end you go God yeah, you know, there's that sense of relief and And But then obviously, you know, there's that part which I know you're not gonna want to end on which is the anxiety at some point We'll we'll surface again and that's where people get into the whole it's not worked Didn't work yeah, yeah, but it's not that it hasn't worked. It has worked. It has helped It's just that as you know drew sometimes the layers of Recovery or healing that we go through you're just so subtle and gentle and we it's like painting paint on a wall You've just got to keep going until the color that you want gets there and yeah Yeah, I think the lesson you could take out of that session to you might end the session It's like owner chiropractor my back feels great and then the next day not so much But you know, I think what you might be able to take out of the session You tell me if this is seems right to you, but look I I can be okay I don't necessarily think that I I need all the time to make me okay But this can teach me that I can get through things. I am capable of achieving that sort of state. I can do this I'm not broken. Yeah Which would be a wonderful message for somebody to be actually experience instead of just here. That's great So I think that's it and I think the part that I used to look forward to was because I knew I was gonna get some relief Yeah, and when you know that you're gonna get relief. Oh my goodness It's it's something else especially, you know, if you've got really intense Symptoms and that you can relief is possible But that is such a beacon of hope for so many people like nothing is gonna work I'll forget if it works, but look it is possible for you to make distance between you and this thing. It can happen That's great. Absolutely. And just you know, although the the the hypnotherapy you might not You know 10% I'm saying about being are able to be hypnotized You'll still benefit from the relaxation of the experience anyway. Yeah, I would think I mean hell I want to come to Scotland and hang out with you for an hour no matter what And this is really great you were so incredibly I like really enjoyed the conversation I learned so much that I know before and I feel more intelligent and well informed But I really wanted somebody that I knew I could trust to talk about this and you came through with flying colors So thank you so much.

Thanks, Sam Cheers All right, we are back and that was awesome I learned so much today about a topic that I knew nothing about this morning and any day that you can learn something new You are winning and this is why I love to collaborate with people that are smarter and more than Experience to me in certain topics Emma was great She gave of her time on a Friday evening in Scotland because she's four hours ahead of me now She gave of her experience and her training and her knowledge and I appreciate all of that What did we learn? We learned that hypnosis does in fact have a place it could have a place as a tool as part of anxiety recovery We also learned that hypnosis is not anxiety recovery or an anxiety cure by itself Emma was so honest and so upfront about that that 10% statistic blew me away But we do know that it could be a tool and why not take advantage of tools if they are going to help us along the way In this journey, right?
