EnglishLeap Podcast
0:02
>> from Speak English with Class.
0:05
>> Hey English learners, welcome back to
0:07
the EnglishLeap Podcast, your cozy
0:10
little place to learn easy English
0:12
through real everyday conversations. I'm
0:15
Anna.
0:16
>> And I'm Jake, running on only 4 hours of
0:19
sleep, so honestly, this episode is
0:21
basically me asking for help.
0:23
>> Okay, that is actually perfect because
0:26
today we're talking about something
0:27
almost everyone struggles with. Calming
0:30
your mind at night.
0:31
>> Oh, this is personal, very personal for
0:34
me.
0:35
>> Why? What happens?
0:36
>> I get into bed, I close my eyes, and my
0:38
brain says, "Great, finally some quiet
0:41
time. Let's remember every embarrassing
0:43
thing you've said since 2009."
0:46
>> [laughter]
0:46
>> The 2009 memories are back.
0:49
>> Every night, free of charge. Nobody
0:51
asked for this service.
0:53
>> [laughter]
0:54
>> Mine is different. Mine is less
0:56
embarrassing memories and more sudden
0:58
emergency to-do list. Like at 11:00
1:00
p.m., my brain says, "Did you renew your
1:03
passport? What about that email from 3
1:05
weeks ago?"
1:06
>> Your brain waits until you're lying down
1:08
to bring up boring life tasks?
1:11
>> Every single time. It's like my brain
1:13
knows I can't do anything about it right
1:15
now, so that is exactly when it wants to
1:18
talk about it.
1:19
>> That's so mean. Your brain is actually
1:21
kind of evil.
1:22
>> It is a little evil, yes. So, today,
1:25
we're looking at why this happens and
1:27
more importantly, what actually helps.
1:30
>> Real stuff, not just drink chamomile tea
1:33
and good luck.
1:34
>> Although we will mention chamomile tea
1:37
at some point, let's be honest.
1:38
>> Fine, but we'll make sure it deserves to
1:40
be mentioned.
1:42
>> Deal. And before we get into today's
1:44
topic, can I tell you something quick?
1:46
>> Uh-oh, quick from Anna usually means not
1:50
quick.
1:51
>> Okay, fair, but this one really matters.
1:54
Over the past few weeks, we kept hearing
1:56
the same thing from learners. Learners
2:00
who understand English, learners who
2:02
know a lot of words, learners who have
2:04
studied for years.
2:06
>> But when someone asks them a simple
2:08
everyday question, their mind suddenly
2:10
goes blank.
2:11
>> Not because they don't understand.
2:14
>> They understand perfectly. They just
2:16
can't find their way to an answer that
2:18
feels natural.
2:20
>> An answer with a little detail, a little
2:22
feeling, an answer that actually sounds
2:25
like them.
2:26
>> And honestly, that stayed with us.
2:29
>> So, we built something for that exact
2:32
moment.
2:32
>> It's called the English Leap Answer
2:35
Builder.
2:35
>> It's a calm speaking course that helps
2:37
you turn short answers into warmer,
2:40
fuller answers step-by-step.
2:42
>> No complicated lessons, no pressure,
2:45
just simple formulas, useful phrases,
2:48
and speaking practice you can actually
2:51
use.
2:51
>> You'll practice building real answers
2:54
slowly, from a small answer to something
2:57
more natural, more confident, and more
2:59
personal.
3:00
>> And there's speak with Anna style
3:02
practice, too. So, you don't just read
3:04
the answers, you say them out loud.
3:07
>> We also wanted to make the Answer
3:08
Builder easy to access. It is a paid
3:11
course, but if you're an English Leap
3:13
Club member, it is already included in
3:16
your membership.
3:17
>> And if you do not want to join the club,
3:20
you can get the Answer Builder course
3:22
separately.
3:23
>> Either way, you get practical speaking
3:25
practice to help you build longer,
3:28
clearer, and more confident answers.
3:30
>> And your support helps us continue
3:33
creating calm conversations, useful
3:35
lessons, and learning materials for this
3:38
community.
3:39
>> The link is below in the description.
3:41
>> We always say English Leap is your cozy
3:43
little place to learn English, and we
3:45
really mean that.
3:47
>> This channel grows because you keep
3:49
showing up. So, if this podcast has
3:51
helped you even a little and you want to
3:54
support the channel while improving your
3:56
speaking,
3:57
>> take a look at the English Leap Answer
3:59
Builder. The link is below.
4:00
>> Small answers today,
4:02
>> big conversations tomorrow.
4:04
>> That's what we want for you.
4:06
>> All right. Now, let's talk about calming
4:08
the mind at night.
4:09
>> So, let's start with the obvious
4:11
question. Why does this even happen? Why
4:15
does the mind become so loud at night?
4:18
>> Because during the day we're too busy to
4:20
listen to it.
4:21
>> Yes. During the day there are messages,
4:25
conversations,
4:26
traffic, work, family, and a hundred
4:29
small distractions. The brain does not
4:32
really get a quiet moment.
4:33
>> So, the brain is trying to speak, but
4:35
the day is too noisy.
4:37
>> That is a good way to say it. Then at
4:39
night, everything becomes quiet. You lie
4:42
down, the lights are off, no one is
4:45
talking, and suddenly your thoughts have
4:48
space.
4:49
>> Whoa. So, the brain finally gets the
4:51
room to itself.
4:52
>> Exactly.
4:54
>> And then it chooses the worst possible
4:56
topic.
4:57
>> [laughter]
4:57
>> Yes. It's like your worries finally get
5:00
the microphone.
5:01
>> That sounds too accurate.
5:03
>> This is where anxiety can show up, too.
5:06
>> Yes, that heavy worried feeling. It can
5:09
become so loud at night.
5:11
>> Right. Anxiety is that nervous, worried
5:14
feeling. Sometimes it's small, like,
5:16
"Did I forget something?" And sometimes
5:19
it feels much heavier.
5:20
>> So, at night the brain says, "Oh, the
5:23
room is quiet. Great. Let's bring all
5:26
the worries."
5:27
>> That is how it can feel. But, in a
5:29
strange way, I also find this a little
5:31
reassuring.
5:32
>> Wait. I get that. It feels good to know
5:35
you're not the only one.
5:37
>> Yes. Reassuring means it makes you feel
5:40
less worried. When you know many people
5:42
feel this way, you don't feel so alone.
5:44
>> That is actually reassuring. I always
5:47
thought it meant my brain was uniquely
5:49
broken.
5:50
>> No, Jake. Your brain is not broken.
5:53
>> Good. I needed to hear that.
5:56
>> A lot of people deal with some version
5:58
of this. Nighttime is often the first
6:00
quiet moment the brain gets all day.
6:02
>> So, it's not why is my brain like this,
6:05
it's more like why do many brains do
6:07
this when everything becomes quiet?
6:10
>> Yes, and that small change can help. You
6:13
stop blaming yourself.
6:14
>> I like that. But, my brain still chooses
6:17
terrible topics.
6:19
>> Yours chooses embarrassing memories.
6:21
Mine chooses emails and passport
6:24
problems.
6:25
>> I once stayed awake for 40 minutes
6:27
because I remembered something strange I
6:29
said in a job interview 6 years ago.
6:32
>> What did you say?
6:33
>> I'm not telling you.
6:34
>> Why not?
6:35
>> Because that memory is staying locked.
6:38
>> Locked? But, apparently it opens every
6:41
night.
6:41
>> Only for me. Very private club. One
6:44
member. Me every night.
6:46
>> You know, it is funny, but it is also
6:49
very real. Many people replay old
6:52
moments at night.
6:53
>> Yes, and the worst part is there is
6:55
nothing to fix. It already happened.
6:57
>> That is why sometimes we need to gently
7:00
tell the mind not tonight. We are not
7:03
doing this now.
