Video Transcript

"From your hands resting on the forehead go ahead and stroke out down to the sides of the temples and get as much skin to skin contact as you can using the palms or the excuse me the pads of your fingers and using as many fingers as you can, touching the sides of the head, face getting the temples just going around in circles. Going around in circles. Take a moment when you've made a few circles and pause. Pause, applying a slight amount of pressure not a lot of pressure just a little bit of pressure when you are pausing. And then continue with your circles. And our circles are going downwards, down going down the sides of his face , so you want to go downwards with our circles. Again doing a few circles, just doing a few circles and then pausing. Giving a gentle hug, that would be the way, the amount of pressure. Just a gentle hug to the sides of the face and then again repeating the circles. Then pause. And stroke back up to the forehead and rest your hands right in the middle before you move on to the next stroke."
