Peace Beyond the Noise - Living fully with Tinnitus

Okay, good evening. Hi, my name is Trevor, Trevor-Ed. I'm from the Tinnitus Relief Program and the creator of the Tinnitus Relief Program. And tonight is the first Hangout and it's been recorded. It's going to be made into a video that really stems from a video that I posted a couple of years ago on YouTube, and people have been asking a lot of questions, and I wanted to create another video because there seems to be a lot of interest around this. And what I've noticed is that my, my story, my experience with tinnitus is very valuable. Now, I'm not claiming to cure tinnitus, that's the first thing. And I do still have tinnitus. If you would say, like, I had maybe a 9 when it first started for about a year or about a year and a half, and then probably now it goes down to about a 3 or a 2. But for anybody who has got tinnitus out there, you know as much as I do that to go from that level down to a really what I would call a manageable, quite easy level, is a huge relief, is a massive relief. It's not that you need to get rid of the tinnitus and search for a cure, it's that you need to be able to live a life, be able to get on with the things that you enjoy doing without constantly being reminded of the ringing stressed out and annoyed and frustrated and angry. And yeah, so ultimately I've come from a position of despair, a position of depression, really, really high stress, felt very, very, very bad. And I remember when I was first diagnosed with tinnitus, I I really didn't want to carry on with life. I felt that we were talking big numbers here. We were talking, I think the doctor said to me, it could be 7 years, it could be 10 years, it may be never at all. You may never recover. And I sort of took a big gulp, just like I did then, and I was like, okay, well, you know, this is just awful. One of the problems that I had, and I'll talk about this later is that it's invisible. And so this is something that people can't see. You know, it's like if you're walking down the road with a broken arm in a cast, people can see that and they can say, "Oh, you know, I'm sorry about your arm," or whatever. But this is the unseen, it's inside of you. And I know exactly what that feels like. However, I'm not here to preach doom and gloom, and I'm not here to give any strategies or techniques. That's not what I do. I'm just going to briefly say my story because I think it's important and I think it's valid and it has value. But essentially, I got fed up with techniques. I got fed up with— sorry, my chair is really annoying me. Let me just put this— hey, that's better. Well, I'm really, really close to the floor now. But, oh dear, anyway, got to be comfortable, right? Yeah, okay. So, where was I? I'm going to look at my notes. I'm sorry about this. This is my first Google Hangout, and I really don't know what I'm doing, and I haven't got any notes, well, That's it. Those are my notes. They're not very expansive. So, yeah, cool. Tinnitus. So, I tried NLP, I tried hypnosis, I tried all sorts of different strategies. I tried tapping, I tried healing, spiritual healing, all sorts of things. I tried God, I tried Christianity, I tried religion, I tried I tried getting drunk, I tried staying sober, I tried relationships, whatever, just to divert myself from the tinnitus that was going on. I tried earplugs and I swam or I didn't swim or I did exercise, I cut down on caffeine, I increased caffeine, whatever. It just got to the point where all the things that I was doing were stressing me out and I just got this list of things to do. And I think if you're following strategies to get rid of your tinnitus or manage your tinnitus, that's what happens really, really quickly. So anyway, I got frustrated, got fed up, and I thought, well, what I really want is something that's more grounding, that just sits with me all the time, that I just can live and be, and I don't have to worry about whether a technique is going to wear off. You know, there's some crazy statistics about techniques, how they wear off over time, the mind gets used to habitual patterns and stuff, and it starts to generalize, and it wears off. A little bit like painkillers. If you keep taking painkillers, eventually the painkillers don't work because your body gets immune to the painkillers. And that's a little bit like your psychological system. It just adjusts to whatever the strategy is that you're using at the time. Here's the thing, what I used to notice was say one day I would meditate and if I meditated then I would feel great and maybe calmer and the tenderness would go slightly down. Another day I would meditate and I'd feel a bit frustrated, a bit stressed and the tenderness would go up. That same thing I had with yoga, same thing I had with Pilates, the same thing I had with relaxants, you know, herbal teas. There was never any consistency for me. I began to question what was going on behind. And so one day, completely by accident, I bumped into somebody who was teaching a concept called the 3 principles. And I remember I was having a very, very bad day. My tinnitus was what I would call raging. It was really, really loud. I was feeling really insecure and I had a lot on my mind. There was problems in my job, problems in my home. Problems in relationships, problems everywhere. I just could not focus, could not see the wood for the trees. And, you know, somebody just pointed me in the direction of where my thinking was coming from in that moment. And, you know, it suddenly occurred to me that even though I wasn't around the people who had upset me, and I wasn't in the job that I was struggling with, and I wasn't eating or drinking or doing anything at the time. I was just simply in a seminar room in London, miles away from any of this thing. What I realized was that it was real and it was going on inside of my head, and I was carrying on that memory inside of my head as if it was real, as if it was, as if I was in a movie, as if I was right in that movie and it was still going on. And what this person did was shake me out of that illusion that I was in a movie. And the way that they did that was to point me in the direction of where my thinking was coming from. You know, because I always thought that my tinnitus was causing my stress to go up and then my thinking would get out of hand and then I would feel panicky and upset and then I would feel even worse again. That's the the sequence that I thought it was moving in. And what this guy said to me was, "Well, you know what, your thinking is being generated from within you. You're always thinking, you're always thinking. And when those thoughts disappear, then another thought will appear. And that thought could give you the answer that you're looking for in that moment." And for about 3 or 4 years, I've been told that there was something wrong with me. Everyone said, "Oh, you've got tinnitus, you've got panic attacks, you've got generalized anxiety disorder," whatever the thing was. And this person just said to me, "There's nothing wrong with you, whatever. All you're doing is believing your thinking in the moment." And that really that really touched something inside of me. I heard something at a very deep level about who I really was, about what this condition really was. And from that moment onwards, I started to separate what I thought was the truth about what was possible in my life and what tinnitus was responsible for in a way. I started to separate that out so that there was a gap in between my thinking thinking. As my thinking slowed down, what happened is I had some wisdom coming up from within me and that was giving me information that I needed. I made the analogy of being online, like a broadband connection. Maybe you're— would you rather have a laptop that is super fast and brilliant but isn't connected to the internet so it doesn't get up-to-date information and it just has the old information that you can use? Or would you rather have an average laptop but it's always online and always getting new fresh information? Well, it's the new fresh information that gives you the perspective on the situation, right? So, in my video, when I originally started out with this, I wanted to give people 3 top tips to deal with their tinnitus, and what happened was that in the first instance, people said, "Oh, that's a really good tip and it works for me," and then suddenly you got this rush of people saying, "Well, that's a rubbish tip and it doesn't work for me. And so I— this video is really to address that and to say, look, I'm done with giving advice. I don't have any advice. What works for me works for me. What works for you works for you. And so what I do is I point my clients towards the inner spirit, the understanding, the deeper understanding of where their thoughts come from, from the inside out. You know, I used to think it was the outside in, so there's things outside that were making me really stressed and nervous and increasing my tinnitus. And then I realized, okay, well, if it is coming, let's just ask, let's just suppose, let's like have an open mind and think, is it coming from within? Is my thought coming from within? Is my thought generated from— where is it coming from? Where is it coming from? How does it keep bubbling up? Where is it coming from? It must be coming from a source. It must be coming from a source. And then I realized that the source is connected. It's what we're all connected to. We're all thinking. We're all thinking and creating experience in our moment-to-moment reality. And we call that truth. I used to call it truth. I used to say, this is how it is. I've got tinnitus. I'm stressed. I can't work. I can't have a relationship. This is how it is. But there's another truth. And there's another truth. There's another level of consciousness. When I talk about consciousness, I mean consciousness is like an awareness. It's like what you're aware of in your life. A shift, a transformation. You can shift in your consciousness and your transformation can take place in just one thought. I had it today. I was getting ready for this video. Sorry, I haven't really breathed a lot during this Google Hangout. It's a bit nerve-wracking. I was getting ready for this Google Hangout and I thought, well, do you know what, the flat is a mess. It's got stuff in the sink and I was waiting for a video to be rendered and the video was going to take about 8 minutes and I was staring at the screen and I was thinking, this isn't a good way to prepare for a peaceful Google Hangout. And then a little insight popped into my mind which just sounded really nice and gentle, it made sense, it was like common sense, and it just said, "You've got 8 minutes, just go and wash up." You know, just then that's done, and then as soon as you do something that is informed by your wisdom, what that does is that just frees up more and more of that flow. So that's a really good example of how your insight works all the time. Your wisdom works from within. There's a source of your thinking, it comes from within you, and you're intimately connected to this universe, this life, to God, to spirit, and we don't know how to explain it. You know, if I were to ask you to explain what the soul is, everybody, if I asked 10 different people, they would have 10 different explanations of it. And so for example, let me give you an example. So the soul, I would say the soul is so big and so massive that I cannot explain it in any way except through metaphor. So the metaphor that I'm going to use is like a bumblebee that goes to the flower and picks up the pollen and then moves on to the next flower and picks up that pollen. and when the sun comes out, becomes bigger and brighter and enjoys lovely radiant things, you know, I don't know what it is. I can't explain it and that's because it's beyond words. We don't know, I don't know exactly what the soul is. I don't exactly understand where it comes from. I don't understand what spirit is. I don't understand why, you know, when you have a friend and you haven't spoken to them for ages and you just think about them and suddenly they call you. I can't explain any of that stuff and neither can we, you know, as a human being, as race. As a race and as human beings, we have this experience of life that I sometimes call quite magical and it's unexplainable and we don't negate it and say, "Oh, well, that doesn't exist." We feel it. We feel that is the case, that we're part of something bigger, part of something that we don't quite understand. And when you have tinnitus, sometimes there's such a concentration on the noise in the head, and there's such a desire to have peace, that Very often we miss that connection, we feel that we miss that connection. Let me put it another way. You might feel disconnected, you might feel that you're not listening to your common sense anymore, that maybe your radar's slightly off. I mean, I don't know how you would say it in your words, but in my words it'd be like your concentration isn't quite there, you're not really listening that well, and it's like it's preoccupying the consciousness with the noise. So even realizing that you're part of a bigger picture, that you're part of this life force, part of this spiritual energy, that is your core nature. And that within you is your peace and your wisdom and your clarity, and it's already within you. And realizing that you're a thinking creature as well, that thought is coming up all the time, and sometimes it's coming up and we're latching onto it, we're grasping onto it. And listen, I'm not a guru, I'm not a saint or anything. I'm still feeling, I'm thinking all the time. It's just that I'm not so caught up in it, and I'm not applying a technique. I just know that the way that I'm wired is when my thinking slows down and when your thinking slows down, then you'll have more spaces between your thinking and your common sense will pop up, or your wisdom, or your insight, or whatever. It doesn't have to happen like while you're listening. It could happen while you're listening right now. I would implore you to Listen to this, just get up and walk around and go and clean something. Not the washing up because you won't be able to hear it, but a bit of sweeping or whatever you want. Tidy your desk. If you're looking at your desk, tidy your desk, move some stuff around. Because this isn't about the intellect. I'm not trying to talk to your brain. I'm not going to stuff it full of strategies. And stuff it full of ways and things that you can do. Yes, it's true, for a certain amount of people, if they don't have caffeine, it reduces the effect. It is true in my case that if I have caffeine, I feel a bit hyper and I feel a bit stressed, and then generally speaking, my tinnitus will increase. If I binge on sweets and chocolates, that's the same thing. That's my case. It's not for everyone. It's not a blanket thing. I used to think it was. It isn't. What's true for you is true for you. What I'm interested in is getting you to that place where you can start to hear that wisdom a little bit more often. When you hear it, how do you know? How do you know that you're hearing your wisdom? That's a really, really good point, actually. It just has a feeling. It has a nice feeling. It just has a nice feeling. You might feel like there's no words to describe it. You might just feel, "Yeah, that feels good." And it just bubbles up from within. It's like a source, like a river that's going underneath your mind, your consciousness like this. It's just a peaceful river of insight and common sense. And what we're doing is we're focusing so much in our head. We're all in our head and we're just going, "Eh," like this. And the noise is going, and this noise is going, and then things are happening and we're going, well, that's because of that, and thinking, thinking, thinking, and trying to figure it out, trying to figure it out all the time. And then underneath, where the heart is, where you are, where your soul lies, where your spirit lies, where your true nature, what I might call your innate personality, it's just there, it's just there. And I was lying on my bed when I woke up this morning and I had some cheese the night before and I'm not saying don't eat cheese, I'm just saying I had some cheese and my tinnitus went up in the morning and I sort of knew that, I've had that experience before but as I sat, as I lay in bed in the morning, I could hear tinnitus here, and then I got a sense of a real deep peace that coexisted alongside of it. And that's how this Hangout has been created, is because of what happened this morning and the insight that I had about that I didn't need to get rid of it. I've been trying to get rid of it for ages. I've been like, "Oh, I need to get rid of it. If I get rid of my tinnitus, I can have a relationship, I can walk down the street, I can—" You know, there's so many things that I just thought I can't do anymore because of my tinnitus. And to be honest, there are things that I need to change in my behavior anyway. You know, it's not a great idea for me to go into an environment with really loud music and PAs. I can feel the distortion in my ears, it feels too loud, I don't know what's happening nowadays, it's my, get on my little bandwagon, but everything just seems to be really loud and they turn the amps up and they think that a loud performance is a good performance. I don't think that's the case, I think a clear performance with beautiful sound is so much more, is so much more of a performance, but anyway, I could go on for hours about that, but that's just my thing. Disability levels, whoa. Yeah, so there's the common sense that just tells me not to go into loud rooms, common sense that just says if a police car is going by, perhaps put your fingers in your ears. It's things like that. I mean, I wouldn't say that's what you need to do. I'd say look more in the direction of deepening your understanding about how your mind works, where that thinking is coming from, and how it's coming up in the moment. And if you just let it, it will just disappear and it will be replaced by another thought, and another thought, and another thought. And the more you slow down, the easier your life will become and the less you'll notice your tinnitus. Because if there is a relationship to a lot of the questions that I've been asked, it is probably the fact that all of these things, all of these questions create more thought. They create a busy mind, they create speed and thinking and worry and anxiety, and that is getting in the way of your natural peace and clarity and grounding and connection, which you can do effortlessly, that is always there, it's always there bubbling away under the surface. And but for our thinking, but for your thinking around tinnitus or relationships or jobs or money or debt or whatever it is, you know, it— it will present itself. It will present itself, and it's just a question of listening, deeply listening to what's going on around you and seeing a different truth, seeing a different perspective. And that's my aim, is to help point people towards that peace and that grounding. Within themselves, just as my teachers have. And, you know, what that has given me is really inquantifiable. To have peace, to be able to be resilient, to deal with situations without firing off an anchor or manipulating a situation, but just to be present and to just take it on board. And yes, I do get caught up. I use this phrase quite a lot. Caught up is like where you start to believe the movie again, you know, you're in the movie and it's a drama, it's a drama, it's always a drama, there's always a lot of stuff going on. And we can go down that road to a certain extent, and I get caught up occasionally, but I also know that I'm not going to be trapped. And that's the key. I think before I learned this understanding, I felt completely trapped. I felt like there were two ways out. I was going to go crazy or I had to get wasted or just do something so powerfully to change my experience. I really had a lot of despair around that and a lot of depression around that because if you think that everything from the outside world is creating your inner experience, then you're powerless and you're at the mercy of everything that's going on, whether it's the loud bird or whether it's the sirens or whether it's the jackhammer. Oh, and I just want to say something that I realized today. And I think this is really powerful. It's one of those little insights that I had, and then I only realized recently, sort of this afternoon, how big it could be and how helpful it could be. So I'm going to share it with you. It's that before you had tinnitus, and before I had tinnitus, I would still be certainly wired a little bit to avoid loud noises, to limit my exposure to danger, to— it's within me as an instinct to, if I hear something that's loud and uncomfortable, move away from it. And yet I think if you When I realized that I was beating myself up about wanting a quieter life, that really hit me because I just thought there are people without tinnitus who wouldn't necessarily beat themselves up because they wanted a quiet room or a quiet life or, you know, I used to have a convertible MX-5 sports car and I actually had it while I was being diagnosed and eventually I realized that just driving a sports car with all the noise and the heat and the stress that's involved in that just wasn't really good for me at that moment. And so an inner voice was saying to me, you know, I know this is a great car and everything, but it would be nice to have something with a roof, something a little bit protected from the wind, because I already had a wind rushing through my ears, so why would I want to have another wind rushing through my ears? You know, it was like, Okay, so then the sports car, eventually I sold it and then I got a Golf. And then when I was buying the Golf, I thought, well, do you know what, why would I want to change gears so much? Because nowadays, you know, you're using the clutch up and down and stopping and starting and what have you. And in those days, I lived in Guildford, I lived in a big city, and there was a lot of stopping and starting actually. I live in Horsham now, which is very quiet, very leafy, and I can go from A to B with very, very little stopping. But the point is, my wisdom said to me, "Well, look, why don't you get an automatic car?" And there wasn't an automatic car available, and I waited a little bit longer, and then I got an automatic car. And, you know, just little things like that. Now, that's just natural. It's just natural and I only realized it today that this is just a nice way to live. If you want something and you want to create a certain environment around you and it doesn't feel insecure and it has a good feeling around it, or it has a common sense feeling around it, then move away from it or limit your exposure to it. That's really the insight I had. A bit like the insight I have with pubs. One day I just looked at a pub and thought, "Hmm, they're noisy, people are drunk, and I've got enough to contend with, with a ringing in my ear and focusing on a conversation without spending time in noisy pubs and being on alert and making sure that—" Then I realized that alcohol for me was causing a whole load of problems. It was making the ringing louder, and because I had depression before, I felt really depressed a couple of days after I had alcohol. Well, you know, go figure, alcohol is a depressant. So that doesn't mean there's anything wrong with me, it doesn't mean there's anything to be fixed, it doesn't mean I need to go to see I need like a therapist, doesn't mean I need to have hypnosis or anything like that to deal with any of that stuff. It just means that in that moment I was caught up in a lot of thinking and then, and that made me go to a pub and then my wisdom and my insight and my common sense just informed me that that was a behavior that didn't need to happen anymore. And I think it's really important to make that distinction. For me that really works, it really resonates. So I did want to have a look at these questions. We've probably just got about 10-15 minutes left. Yeah, I mean, a lot of people have been saying about the coffee and tiredness and how they're vegetarian, they eat well, they exercise well, and it looks on paper like they're doing all the right things. That's really what I'm looking at here. And I think what is happening is people are wanting literal advice. So, you know, okay, you're— so for example, I don't know what your name is, I apologize for that, and I probably want to keep this anonymous anyway, but it's basically, okay, so this guy has said he's a vegetarian, he eats organic, he exercises regularly, and it hasn't made any difference to his tinnitus. Well, then there's something else that is preoccupying your mind and preventing you from accessing those levels of peace and clarity and grounding. There is— you may be aware of it, you may not be aware of it, but it's probably underneath this— well, definitely underneath this thinking going on. Sometimes we're not aware of that thinking. Sometimes you just get an insecure feeling or an anxiety or a bit of stress or whatever, and you know that you're feeling your thinking in that moment. And when you realize that you're just feeling your thinking, that there's nothing to do, there's no strategy to do, there's nothing to employ, you don't have to change your life in any major way, you can become peaceful and calm and clear within one thought, within one fresh thought that pops into your mind. So rather than looking— I think what this person is trying to do, and what a lot of these people who are watching my video are trying to do, is they're looking at the outside and they're trying to fix all the things on the outside, whereas there is nothing to fix. And just look into where your thoughts and feelings are coming from, uh, be open to the possibility that that may not be the truth, that there might be other truths, there might be parallel opportunities that are going on. And, um, and just— it sounds a bit blasé, but just get on with your life and focus on what you love if it's not causing you any pain. And, uh, you will notice that the tinnitus will just drop away. You'll notice it less and less and less. Realize that you're a spiritual being, that you're generating your thought from within. You're always generating your thought within there, and not only can that trap you, but that can also free you. That can free you, and you can become enlightened in that moment, really aware in that moment, and have so much information. That's the biggest thing that I can point you towards, because that is going to give you all the answers that you want. I'm not going to say do more exercise. I'm not going to say have a healthy diet. I mean, that's sort of common sense in a funny way. I'm a little bit overweight myself and I believe that if I lost some weight it might help, but in my experience I've been depressed when I'm thin as well. So it really isn't about you have to be a certain way before you can be happy and peaceful and secure in your thinking. Because you already are, you already have that within you, you already have. And the reason that I can say that is because we all have it. I have it, everyone I've met has had it, and you just need to be reminded of it. In fact, you don't even need to be reminded of it because it will just— it's there. It's there. There's nothing to do. You're not broken, you don't need fixing, you don't need to search for things anymore. You can just be. And just allow your psychological well-being to bubble up from within. Alright? So you don't need to follow what anybody else says. If the one thing that you take away from this hangout tonight is that you follow a good feeling that you have and you follow your own wisdom and your own common sense, then that is really, really going to help you. Okay, I've got a question here about somebody had an injury, they hurt their hand and they had a trapped nerve and they have done a lot of things to manage the condition and it hasn't really worked. So again, you know, like like I had, I had a head injury and I thought about that a lot. And even when I didn't think about that, I thought about it a lot. And what I mean is it was hidden underneath. Like, I just got so used to all that anxiety and insecure thinking that sometimes I didn't even spot it. And I might be all the way down the road, halfway down the road, before I realize, ah, you know what, I'm I'm still thinking about that, it's still preoccupying me. And you know, injuries, we do tend to— it tends to speed up our thinking, we get anxious about our thinking. So again, just be kind to yourself, allow yourself to have these thoughts, know that they're going to come up and they're going to be replaced by fresh thinking at any moment, any time. And again, just ease into the good feelings that you have in your life and allow your wisdom and your common sense to just present itself, whether you're doing something you love or you're just doing something menially. You know, it could pop in at any time, and that's the beauty of it, that's the magic of it. It could pop in at any time, the answer that you're seeking. Boom! Could happen now, could happen tomorrow, could happen in a week's time, could happen when you're gardening. Who knows? I don't know. But I do know that it will happen because that's how you're wired and that's how it works. That's the system. That's how your psychological system works. So techniques, trying to manage the situation, doing stuff, just gets in the way of that natural equilibrium. I know this is a new thing. Probably that you haven't heard before because it's not the way we have been operating. We have been operating from a misunderstanding and that misunderstanding is that we have to do something in order to feel great and that just isn't the case. And when you have these experiences, as I know you will, because as I said I'm not talking to your intellect, I'm talking to your soul. And your soul will hear things and will inform you, and you will shift and you will change. And when you do, I just want you to contact me or post on the video or whatever and just say what your experiences are. Not some, "I did this strategy or this technique," just what occurred to you. What occurred to you in the moment? What good feelings did you have, and how did that help you? And how did that help you shift or transform? Cool. Okay, I think we're done for today. I think that's really cool. I have no idea what I just said, but hopefully that has resonated with some of you out there and The idea is just to— so let's go on a quick recap. So what we talked about is that you are part of a connected whole. You're part of life. You're part of the life energy and the force and the universe and the energy. And we're all part of it. We all have the same psychological makeup. We all think. We all feel. And we all create our experience on a moment-to-moment basis. Thought can trap us or it can free us. We can feel a new thought that will be fresh and original and inform us in the moment. It will give us an insight, give us some wisdom into that situation, and inform us of the next step. We've also learned that strategies and techniques have value. They do work to a certain extent, but they also stop working, and they also need an incredible amount of management, which takes time and energy and is quite exhausting. Whereas to just be yourself and just deepen an understanding about how your thought comes from the wellspring within you and it comes from the inside out, not the outside in, that is really going to help you. That's really going to free you because then you know that at any one moment you can be free and you will get an insight and you will get some information that's useful, tailored, tailored to you. And we've also learned how searching, and searching for something outside of you, and trying to get specific advice from people is less valuable than searching for the wisdom within you and listening to the wisdom within you. And we've also learned that even if you have tinnitus, you can still have peace, and you can still have clarity, and you can still have calm. And you still have that wellspring of grounding, of love, of connection, of peace, of calm, of confidence. And that's running through you, it's running through everyone else. We're all thinking, we're all feeling, and we're all connected. And we're all having this experience of life. And sometimes we get caught up in our thinking, you know, we learn that we get caught up in our thinking, that we believe it's real, that we're in a movie, that we're in a drama. And then another time we have an insight and boom, we're free. We see a different truth. We hear something on a different level. We feel a good feeling and that good feeling connects us to the online universe which downloads all the information that we need, the answers that we need. Where they come from, we don't know because it's beyond form, beyond words. We just know it feels good. We know that there's something there. And perhaps we can describe it in metaphors and get fairly close to it, but we'll also be miles away from it because it's so huge and so massive and so amazing and so magical. Okay, so I've really enjoyed doing this Hangout. If you've got any questions, please email me. I'm at trevaired@gmail.com. I also do transformational conversations. You can have your first one free, it's a free session. We just speak more into the nature and the understanding of the 3 principles and how that can really help you to get grounded, to become more resilient, to experience more peace and calm and clarity. There's no advice, there's no strategies, there's no steps, it's just really a transformational conversation. And you're more than welcome to contact me on my email, trev@trev- aird@gmail.com and just request one of those sessions. I'd love to share the understanding with you and help you with your tinnitus. Okay, so yeah, thanks very much. There'll be another Google Hangout, so if you're subscribed, I'm probably going to do these about every 2 weeks or so. Or yeah, and yeah, so fantastic, I really enjoyed it. Take care of yourself and, yeah, have a great evening, have a great week, and don't forget to get back to me with your wonderful insights and wisdom and common sense and stories of transformation. Cheers, guys. All right. All the best. Good night.
