Was there anything that you 102 00:05:16,200 --> 00:05:18,760 Speaker 2: actually put intention on? 103 00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:22,120 Speaker 3: Okay, so I've been bad about the whole scrolling in bed. 104 00:05:22,240 --> 00:05:24,599 Speaker 3: I'm still scrolling too late in bed and not watching 105 00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:27,960 Speaker 3: enough TV. Yes, Ben, you weren't on the podcast so much. 106 00:05:28,040 --> 00:05:31,039 Speaker 3: It was more of jess My intention was to watch 107 00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:37,120 Speaker 3: more TV in bed. It's fair to watch, yeah, like 108 00:05:37,320 --> 00:05:40,200 Speaker 3: it makes me relax. I don't think that scrolling makes 109 00:05:40,200 --> 00:05:43,640 Speaker 3: me relaxed. Yeah, And I've been bad at that. I 110 00:05:43,640 --> 00:05:46,920 Speaker 3: would like to improve upon that. I have been writing 111 00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:50,560 Speaker 3: down what Dawson does says, and what Hayden does and 112 00:05:50,600 --> 00:05:54,159 Speaker 3: stuff which I wanted to put in a journal. I've 113 00:05:54,160 --> 00:05:56,599 Speaker 3: been doing that and I maybe skipt a few days, 114 00:05:56,640 --> 00:05:59,240 Speaker 3: so I got to get back on there. Let's see 115 00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:00,720 Speaker 3: what else did I say that I wanted to do 116 00:06:02,600 --> 00:06:05,520 Speaker 3: up take supplements that I've bought. Nope, haven't done that. 117 00:06:05,960 --> 00:06:09,760 Speaker 3: I have eliminated plastic cups for my kids. They're now 118 00:06:09,839 --> 00:06:14,159 Speaker 3: drinking out of stainless steel. Yes, and uh, let's see. 119 00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:15,359 Speaker 1: Yes, I like that. 120 00:06:15,400 --> 00:06:17,840 Speaker 2: He just looked at me like yes, life. 121 00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:21,279 Speaker 3: And then go outside for a few minutes every day. 122 00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:23,480 Speaker 3: I wouldn't say it's every day, but I did take 123 00:06:23,520 --> 00:06:26,719 Speaker 3: a few walks last week and it was. It made 124 00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:30,240 Speaker 3: me feel great. Getting the movement and the fresh air 125 00:06:30,640 --> 00:06:33,240 Speaker 3: and the day the sunlight on me. Fate made me 126 00:06:33,279 --> 00:06:36,720 Speaker 3: feel so good. I needed to incorporate that more and more. 127 00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:41,680 Speaker 2: Jessicat, I talked about that after you two spoke. She 128 00:06:41,839 --> 00:06:43,159 Speaker 2: came in the room. I was like, how to go. 129 00:06:43,279 --> 00:06:45,760 Speaker 2: She goes great. I was like, what was some takeaways? 130 00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:47,960 Speaker 2: And she's like, well, Ashley wants to walk more. And 131 00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:49,440 Speaker 2: I was like, you know, we thought we talked about 132 00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:51,960 Speaker 2: We're like, that's one of the best habits we have 133 00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:55,200 Speaker 2: as a couple. I mean, you know, we try hard to, 134 00:06:55,520 --> 00:06:58,480 Speaker 2: you know, keep our relationship happy and healthy and fresh, 135 00:06:58,560 --> 00:07:01,039 Speaker 2: and I mean, goodness, I could have never imagined a 136 00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:05,200 Speaker 2: marriage as wonderful as we have it because my wife 137 00:07:05,320 --> 00:07:08,479 Speaker 2: is so great she gets to deal with me. But 138 00:07:08,920 --> 00:07:11,720 Speaker 2: I do think one of the like secret tricks to 139 00:07:11,880 --> 00:07:17,320 Speaker 2: why we feel so good, why we get to like 140 00:07:17,360 --> 00:07:20,160 Speaker 2: communicate so much, is because we go on so many walks. 141 00:07:20,200 --> 00:07:24,360 Speaker 2: I mean I walk, like right now, I'm averaging just 142 00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:26,880 Speaker 2: this week about seven miles a day. That's a lot 143 00:07:26,880 --> 00:07:27,360 Speaker 2: of walking. 144 00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:29,080 Speaker 3: Moly. I'm just trying to get one in. 145 00:07:29,640 --> 00:07:32,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's and that's a start. I'm just saying, getting outside, 146 00:07:33,160 --> 00:07:37,760 Speaker 2: getting a walk in, feeling the sun, just it's it's 147 00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:41,960 Speaker 2: good for you. And here's my other comment, Ashley, I 148 00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:44,920 Speaker 2: am with you. I got through a phase where I 149 00:07:44,960 --> 00:07:46,920 Speaker 2: was scrolling at night. I don't get on social media 150 00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:49,360 Speaker 2: much during the day, you know stuff exactly. 151 00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:51,200 Speaker 3: That's the thing, Like, I know that I need to 152 00:07:51,240 --> 00:07:52,840 Speaker 3: be on it to a certain extent because of what 153 00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:55,680 Speaker 3: I do. So then I end up looking at it 154 00:07:55,720 --> 00:07:58,400 Speaker 3: in a like doom scrolling way at night because I'm like, oh, 155 00:07:58,440 --> 00:08:00,360 Speaker 3: I'm catching up on the whole day and this is 156 00:08:00,360 --> 00:08:02,480 Speaker 3: like kind of fun. And then I look at the 157 00:08:02,520 --> 00:08:05,400 Speaker 3: clock and it's too late for me to watch TV. 158 00:08:06,360 --> 00:08:09,920 Speaker 2: Well, and I noticed that, and even if I couldn't 159 00:08:09,920 --> 00:08:11,080 Speaker 2: pick up on it, And I think this is a 160 00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:14,600 Speaker 2: key element for so many right now. I didn't even 161 00:08:14,680 --> 00:08:20,000 Speaker 2: realize how much envy, jealousy, stress, anxiety, whatever was like 162 00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:23,600 Speaker 2: getting put on me from scrolling. And then there'd be 163 00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:25,440 Speaker 2: like these moments of oh my gosh, it's so cool 164 00:08:25,440 --> 00:08:27,280 Speaker 2: that they're doing this, and then there the next one 165 00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:29,120 Speaker 2: would be like a breakup of two friends of mine 166 00:08:29,160 --> 00:08:31,640 Speaker 2: that I, you know, saw and it'd just be emotional 167 00:08:31,720 --> 00:08:34,960 Speaker 2: roller coaster and I wasn't sleeping and so I've stopped. 168 00:08:35,800 --> 00:08:41,040 Speaker 2: In fact, at nine fifteen, my phone doesn't like, I mean, 169 00:08:41,080 --> 00:08:42,559 Speaker 2: I could still do it, but it like pretty much 170 00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:45,959 Speaker 2: shuts off. It's done. It won't even let me in. Yeah, 171 00:08:46,120 --> 00:08:47,880 Speaker 2: because at that point you think can wait till the 172 00:08:47,920 --> 00:08:51,240 Speaker 2: next day, and that's worked. I have a friend actually here, 173 00:08:51,320 --> 00:08:56,360 Speaker 2: listen to this. Yeah, my in laws they're best friends 174 00:08:56,600 --> 00:08:59,080 Speaker 2: for twenty They started this actually in twenty twenty five, 175 00:08:59,120 --> 00:09:02,040 Speaker 2: I think, and it's still going on. When they go 176 00:09:02,200 --> 00:09:06,360 Speaker 2: out to dinner with like themselves or a couple, they 177 00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:09,640 Speaker 2: leave their phones at home. Now granted they're empty nesters. 178 00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:11,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, they're empty nesters there, so that's different. 179 00:09:11,640 --> 00:09:12,160 Speaker 1: They can do that. 180 00:09:12,520 --> 00:09:15,760 Speaker 2: But I do think making those intentional changes to where 181 00:09:15,800 --> 00:09:18,719 Speaker 2: our phones are on us less often once you get 182 00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:21,320 Speaker 2: used to it. I do think it has always been good, 183 00:09:21,480 --> 00:09:23,160 Speaker 2: like it's never I've never been like I wish I 184 00:09:23,160 --> 00:09:25,559 Speaker 2: would have done more on my phone.
