Unit 181 Part A

 1 I actually had hypnosis for about two years.
 2 After the session, my mind seemed razor sharp and I had this feeling of great power.
 3 It only took a minute or so to put me to sleep.
 4 Then, when I woke up, I felt that I could fight King Kong!
 5 But it also helped me to concentrate on my game and block out the crowd.
 6 I have to say that I'm fascinated by the fact that apparently we only use ten per cent
     of our brains.
 8 I've read that the creative possibilities of our sub-conscious are enormous!
 9 All you then need to do is look forward to playing the character, …
10 and  while on stage, you should simply be that character!
11 Try a session under hypnosis and see.
12 You will be able to talk yourself into a semi-hypnotic state any time you're under stress,…
13 for instance, when you're flying.

14 The ‘telemedicine’ link shows vital signs such as …
15 blood pressure, temperature and oxygen in the blood.
16 To check on a passenger, flight attendants –
17 who have undergone basic medical training - first attach sensors.
18 A monitoring unit then plugs into the plane's satellite communication system ...
19 which allows continuous two-way communication between the plane and the airport.
20 Then, about two months later, I suffered identical symptoms …
21 while on holiday with my husband In Cornwall.
22 We'd rented a cottage and the only way I was able to breathe comfortably indoors ...
23 was by inhaling through a damp tissue with the windows open and an electric fire to dry the air.
