Well, the chanting's optional. [Please enjoy an incredibly dry tone, Charles.] Meditation is about relaxation, regulating your breathing and your body's responses. Just find a place to get relatively comfortable and breathe in for 5 counts, out for 7. Try doing it for just ten or fifteen minutes. It'll put you more in tune with your body and focus you on your breathing, rather than any pain.

[Wow, did Watson just sass at him? He's pretty sure Watson just sassed at him. It's not a side of the doctor he's seen before, but he's alright with it.]

Well, okay. I mean, finding a comfortable place here is like finding buried treasure, but next time I'm near a bed- [that's not in a hospital-] maybe I'll give it a shot. Thanks, I guess.

[jumpthegun]

No problem. I'm absolute rubbish at meditating, but it's meant to work for other people.

[coyoteking]

[Charles snorts.]

What makes you the exception? Find a comfy place and get breathing, Doc.

[jumpthegun]

Haven't you heard? Doctors are the absolute worst patients.

[coyoteking]

Yeah, I'll believe it.

[Although he's pretty sure Watson has some stiff competition in the form of himself.]

[jumpthegun]

Glad we've got that settled. You all right otherwise, Charles? Well, all right as this place lets anyone be.

[coyoteking]

Yeah, I'm alright, all things considered.

[He pauses for a second, considering whether or not to say something.]

If I need anything, I'll let you know. [As far as doctors go, Watson's not so bad.] You do the same, yeah?

[jumpthegun]

[That's probably not going to happen from his end now he knows you've read his casebook, Charles, but he appreciates the sentiment.]

Sure. Cheers, mate! Say hi to Charlie from me whenever you speak to him.

[coyoteking]

Will do. See you around!
