Original Broadcast: The Hypnotist
Adam Cox uses random generation to construct this episode, using https://earthroulette.com/ to generate a destination - Albi in the Pyrenees (the image is of Albi Cathedral), a pair of emotions - hatred and joy - and some random words: pioneer, ambition and penny (the English coin, that is!). Then he weaves his web of hypnosis using his 15 minute sand-timer and a liberal helping of 'that's right', the hypnotists' universal amplifier. Enjoy!

The Christmas/New Year fortnight is infamous for over-eating, and for some people it just doesn't seem right to leave food behind. Adam Cox invites us to visit the control room of our mind, where conscious links can be drawn between our appetite and the amount of physical exertion we undertake. Using this logic, he argues that overeating and excess for no other purpose is ridiculous: so some exercise to balance it out over the next fortnight might be worth considering!

This episode is all about avoiding avoidance: helping to tackle the sense of retreat brought on by anxiety. Returning to work after a period of illness is just one such challenge — but challenges of all kinds can cause inaction. Adam Cox shows how the best way to approach such fears is to treat physical anxiety as a reason to take action, not to avoid it. We soon discover that anxiety is indeed a mirage, which melts away in front of action.
