Speaker 1: Welcome to Insider's Guide to the Other Side, a production
Speaker 1: of iHeartRadio. Hi, y'all, I'm Julie.
Speaker 2: Hi there, I'm Brenda. Welcome to Insider's Guide to the
Speaker 2: Other Side.
Speaker 1: Now, y'all need to know that we are obsessed with
Speaker 1: everything on the other side.
Speaker 2: Yes, we are, because once you learn to navigate the energetic,
Speaker 2: or to some the invisible world, life is going to
Speaker 2: be more fun and much more serene.
Speaker 1: Uh heck, yes it can, because, let's be honest, for
Speaker 1: in earth school is hard.
Speaker 2: In fact, you taught me that let's crush Earth school together.
Speaker 1: Well, hello, my witchy pooh, how in the crazy assue
Speaker 1: world are you? And why the hell are you laughing
Speaker 1: at me already?
Speaker 3: Oh my god, Oh my god.
Speaker 2: It's such a great greeting, such an appropriate greed today
Speaker 2: as we celebrate the super intensity for all of our
Speaker 2: listeners who maybe, like me, a little crispy on the edges,
Speaker 2: like in the very center. Fine, but on the edges.
Speaker 1: It's been by the same like that that eclipse. Yeah
Speaker 1: it fried me too.
Speaker 3: Yeah it was great. Yeah, it was great.
Speaker 1: It was magical in lots of ways. It's actually really fun,
Speaker 1: by the way, seeing shadows of like a crescent moon,
Speaker 1: because what the shadows looked like. It was actually really fun, cool,
Speaker 1: really cool. And everybody at the Santa Fe Community College
Speaker 1: was not only playing on again I'm gonna call it
Speaker 1: a boombox because I'm in my fifties, but or they're
Speaker 1: they're playing or singing the Johnny Cash song, ring exactly right,
Speaker 1: ring afar. But yeah, krispy is a really great word.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 2: So the eclipse energy, literally it starts two weeks before
Speaker 2: and so we have the panacle of course during the
Speaker 2: actual eclipse, but it just starts like tempers get short.
Speaker 2: Some people have trouble sleeping, they're just a little edgy
Speaker 2: and they don't know why. Or people are snapping and
Speaker 2: they don't know why. This happens a lot, and so
Speaker 2: that's why it's so great to study astrology to know like, okay,
Speaker 2: it's good. Things are cooking up. Things are cooking up,
Speaker 2: so you can actually be informed on how to navigate
Speaker 2: instead of taking the bait. You know, like in a
Speaker 2: conversation you're like, don't need to weigh in on this one, you.
Speaker 1: Know, girl, I got to tell you I understand that
Speaker 1: that happened in the pre eclipse time for me as well. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and it's funny because listen all around the clips has
Speaker 1: been wild for me. Weirdly, I slept like a baby
Speaker 1: and I cannot I can't explain it. Susannah's like, how
Speaker 1: are you sleeping? Exactly, probably because I just exhaust myself
Speaker 1: during the day from all the energies, Like I just
Speaker 1: I'm exhausted. But I will tell you when we were there,
Speaker 1: I felt my cells were kind of jittery. I felt,
Speaker 1: I've actually jittery is probably a pretty good word. I
Speaker 1: felt that it was on the outside, Like you said,
Speaker 1: it wasn't on the inside. It was on the outside.
Speaker 1: I felt the jitterness of it. It was also excitement
Speaker 1: because I love a good celestial event, but that jitter
Speaker 1: And imagine people who didn't know what it was, how
Speaker 1: they were exploding.
Speaker 2: Yeah, well and that's it. But they usually people don't go, hmm,
Speaker 2: I wonder what's going on. They explode on the outside
Speaker 2: like they just start sniping to get to release the
Speaker 2: energy instead of like I got a ground, I have
Speaker 2: to take this in now. Could you actually see you
Speaker 2: could see it where you were were?
Speaker 1: Yeah, we were eight We had eighty percent.
Speaker 3: Okay, Yeah, that's cool. That's cool.
Speaker 2: We weren't in that, but when it was at the
Speaker 2: peak even here, like again, we couldn't see it. It
Speaker 2: didn't we weren't in range. But the stillness that falls
Speaker 2: in nature, it's it's so potent. It's like, whoa, what's
Speaker 2: happening right now? It was really cool and it was
Speaker 2: cloudy here. It wasn't Sunday at all, you know, it
Speaker 2: was it was kind of stormy anyhow, and then everything
Speaker 2: went still.
Speaker 1: That's crazy. Yeah, it was opposite here because we had
Speaker 1: eighty percent. Right, that's so cool and a perfectly like
Speaker 1: not a cloud in the sky.
Speaker 3: Oh my god, there are people. It's funny. I was.
Speaker 1: I was actually texting with a friend and uh hold
Speaker 1: it was Tim and he lives in Florida and they
Speaker 1: only got like forty percent somewhere in the forties, I
Speaker 1: think is what they got. And a friend of his,
Speaker 1: I think, he said, went to Oregon, like paid for
Speaker 1: the trip, gonna yep, it was completely clouded. They couldn't
Speaker 1: see a damn thing. So I'm sending him pictures. She's like,
Speaker 1: I'm glad somebody is because my friend who went to
Speaker 1: Oregon couldn't see a thing.
Speaker 3: It's so funny, fun but it was, but it was.
Speaker 1: It was literally a perfect day. You couldn't have asked
Speaker 1: for a more perfect day. Some people had their dogs
Speaker 1: out at the community center. I didn't bring Sukie because
Speaker 1: I didn't know what would happen to their eyes, you know, so,
Speaker 1: so I wanted to protect her eyes more than so.
Speaker 1: I don't know how she responded at that moment, because
Speaker 1: we were away from the house and I know that,
Speaker 1: you know, for us, we had to wear the glasses,
Speaker 1: you know. Yeah, so we wore the glasses to make
Speaker 1: sure we wouldn't you know, I don't know, burn our eyeballs,
Speaker 1: but I would assume the same thing happened with dogs.
Speaker 1: So I didn't bring her.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, that's no, that's good. But dogs
Speaker 2: don't usually look at the sun.
Speaker 1: Well, oh that's fair, I guess not. I just overly
Speaker 1: protective dog bomb. But I will tell you really fascinating
Speaker 1: and and you all can't see me, but I'm wearing
Speaker 1: a hat right now. It's actually uh uh Garth Brooks
Speaker 1: Friends and Low Place's hat, just so you know, But
Speaker 1: I'm tipping it to my witchipoo that I just did
Speaker 1: because she slash you as I'm looking at you. Brenda
Speaker 1: has taught me during so many things in life, as
Speaker 1: we all know. But you know about pitta pitta pitta,
Speaker 1: which is an aravetic like you know, fiery right like,
Speaker 1: and you've told me, I don't know how many times
Speaker 1: you're like, uh, you don't need to be eating hot
Speaker 1: sauces all that kind of stuff, which I do.
Speaker 3: You might as well set yourself on fire.
Speaker 1: I do. I set myself on fire all the time.
Speaker 1: But here's what's funny during it's the clips because I'm
Speaker 1: also an EmPATH and I'm more attuned to that and
Speaker 1: try to take care of myself more. I found myself
Speaker 1: without consciously doing it, but recognizing after I did it,
Speaker 1: eating very bland food. I wasn't even doing my ginger
Speaker 1: shots and stuff even because that's also heat, which I love.
Speaker 1: But I found my body was telling me to not
Speaker 1: do that. And I think my body way smarter than
Speaker 1: my brain, is, way more intuitive, A different kind of wisdom,
Speaker 1: a different kind of wisdom was telling me not to
Speaker 1: do that because of the celestial event that was happening,
Speaker 1: and it was just fascinating because it was truly my
Speaker 1: It was the first time I've ever really noticed that.
Speaker 1: At least, the pit's a part of me where my body's.
Speaker 3: Like, no, don't read that clip.
Speaker 1: No, you're already on fire, no need to add. I
Speaker 1: mean I ordered, like at my favorite restaurant, which is
Speaker 1: the Tusuki Grill or just the Tusuki Market Grill, and
Speaker 1: the Tusuki is actually a tribe and it sounds like Suki,
Speaker 1: so I call her to Suki when we're there. But
Speaker 1: I order everything spicy because I love it. And I
Speaker 1: ordered like a club sandwich, not even with not even
Speaker 1: with like hatch green chilis on it. It was like
Speaker 1: plain as you could possibly get. And I'm and I
Speaker 1: and as I'm ordered, I'm like, and I'm in my
Speaker 1: I'm like, who am I? And then I'm like, oh,
Speaker 1: I know who I am. I don't want to set
Speaker 1: myself so much on fire that I actually like explode
Speaker 1: and I'm no longer here.
Speaker 2: It's spontaneous combustion, exactly right.
Speaker 1: And I think those really great advice. Over instance, we
Speaker 1: have another one coming up about knowing that this energy
Speaker 1: is there, knowing that the kind of fried edges happened too.
Speaker 1: I don't care who you are is to be sought
Speaker 1: because I love how you handled it. I just didn't
Speaker 1: eat jlapenos. You actually handled it in a way where
Speaker 1: I not of not setting other people on fire.
Speaker 3: That's exactly right, try not to.
Speaker 2: But the two weeks before, I just noticed people would
Speaker 2: tell me about some edgy, super charged conversations coming out,
Speaker 2: people having strong reactions. And obviously, you know, when I'm
Speaker 2: when I'm coaching people, I need to weigh in and
Speaker 2: give them guidance and have them consider options to de
Speaker 2: escalate things. And in my personal life when people, you know,
Speaker 2: there's been a lot of family conversations and navigations. Both
Speaker 2: sides of my family have been experienced, uh, some people
Speaker 2: jumping the planet, so lots of things to coordinate.
Speaker 1: And and one of my favorite people, but go ahead, I.
Speaker 2: Know, and Darrin Lewis, And in these conversations, I'm like, Brent,
Speaker 2: stay in your lane. You don't need to weigh in.
Speaker 2: Just you know, let let that run its course. They
Speaker 2: will figure it out. They haven't asked for help, no
Speaker 2: reason to.
Speaker 3: Step in.
Speaker 1: Advice in general, let's be honest.
Speaker 3: Yeah, but especially doing this during.
Speaker 1: The eclipse because it's gonna set, because you're literally setting
Speaker 1: people on fire. You're throwing the match on the gasoline
Speaker 1: that's already poured all over them from the sky. It's
Speaker 1: Cosmo Petro and it's like, why throw a match on it?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 2: And so my job just take it down, Just take
Speaker 2: it down.
Speaker 3: And I think that's so good.
Speaker 1: So we have some other EmPATH things we want to
Speaker 1: talk about.
Speaker 2: Just how do we take care of ourselves during the
Speaker 2: super intense time when you are super sensitive. So that's
Speaker 2: our conversation today.
Speaker 1: That's right, we'll be right back, y'all.
Speaker 3: Get that fire.
Speaker 1: Are we back? Wow? That was the crappiest intro re
Speaker 1: intro from a break that we've ever had. It's like
Speaker 1: your giggle experience, do it. It's like, y'all, y'all just
Speaker 1: need to understand. Brenda like showing me fingers three two
Speaker 1: and then she starts to giggle. I'm like, well, I
Speaker 1: guess we're back. This is actually the greatest way for
Speaker 1: an EmPATH to deal with life right now, which is
Speaker 1: with humor. Just FYI, So I you know, I think
Speaker 1: the eclipse was a great way for us to kind
Speaker 1: of start this conversation about how do we take care?
Speaker 1: How how can we be more aware and sometimes you know,
Speaker 1: maybe going against what your body feels, your nature may
Speaker 1: be something like that.
Speaker 3: And well and.
Speaker 2: Again, when when the environment gets really intense, instead of
Speaker 2: being overwhelmed by it or matching it, how can you
Speaker 2: make a strategic choice for self care and to actually
Speaker 2: serve the situation. Like I think that's that's what we
Speaker 2: want to talk about today, Like do we double down
Speaker 2: on the intensity or are we going to choose sanity?
Speaker 1: Right?
Speaker 3: Right?
Speaker 1: Right? And I think let's be fair, there's something. There's
Speaker 1: a lot going on in the world around us that
Speaker 1: you can't avoid, you can't hide from, you know, whether
Speaker 1: it's in Israel or a Gaza or Ukraine, or it's
Speaker 1: our own you know, events that happen with floods and fires, tornadoes.
Speaker 1: It just seems like there's an awful lot more that
Speaker 1: goes on.
Speaker 3: That can't actually do anything right now.
Speaker 1: Or where shut down. Then there's that. But you know,
Speaker 1: as an EmPATH, and so those who know like an
Speaker 1: EmPATH like it because I'm very much you've called me
Speaker 1: in pathic since I think the day you met me, Brenda,
Speaker 1: I think you have in fact, I know you have.
Speaker 2: That.
Speaker 1: You know I feel everything you know, I can feel
Speaker 1: pain from other people their pain and it's tough because
Speaker 1: you kind of take it on. I can also joy
Speaker 1: as well. I mean, the past is not just the
Speaker 1: the hard part. It can also be a lighter as well.
Speaker 1: And with what's been going on, you know, and again,
Speaker 1: whether it is you know, the fires in Hawaii, you know,
Speaker 1: the the current bombings that are happening, you know across
Speaker 1: the big Giant Pond, I feel all that I feel.
Speaker 1: I can also feel the rage. I can feel the
Speaker 1: pain the families that have been utterly devastated, the fear
Speaker 1: also that people have, and.
Speaker 2: And the desperation and the people are in the situation
Speaker 2: and the people who are trying to find their loved
Speaker 2: ones or are worried for their loved ones, right, I mean,
Speaker 2: it's it's contagious.
Speaker 1: It is or not having and feeling of the not
Speaker 1: having resources. Again, whether it's Ukraine, whether it's in the
Speaker 1: the Middle East, it's very apocalyptic in that respect. And
Speaker 1: and again, and I also just want to be very clear.
Speaker 1: Everybody has a point of view on things. My point
Speaker 1: of view, especially when we talk about being empathetic, is
Speaker 1: just about human nature. Is about humans. It's not about sides.
Speaker 1: Nobody's taking sides in this conversation. The side that we
Speaker 1: have is yours, and the side is how can we
Speaker 1: take care of ourselves, especially those that are hyper empathetic
Speaker 1: or even normal. If you're normal, if you're like a five,
Speaker 1: you're gonna feel what's going on? Right, It's like, isn't
Speaker 1: so intense? How do people not? And so I was
Speaker 1: sharing with Brenda earlier that you know, the other day
Speaker 1: Suzanne said to me, she goes, I think you need
Speaker 1: to go take a walk. She goes, you because she
Speaker 1: could see my face. I mean, I can watch somebody
Speaker 1: here something. I have tears running down my face too.
Speaker 1: I get angry that comes out. And she's like, I
Speaker 1: think you just need to go be walk be with
Speaker 1: your dog. You don't go with unconditional love and go
Speaker 1: with the planet. Yeah, and with nature, go with nature,
Speaker 1: go with it, Go with your little critter that you
Speaker 1: love more than anything in the world with it's also true,
Speaker 1: and get walk away and you know what, I come
Speaker 1: back and I am a different person.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Yeah, And that's the way to do it. Yeah.
Speaker 2: Moving the body is very helpful, very helpful. And also
Speaker 2: you know, finding out a positive way or a helpful
Speaker 2: way to have that emotional release now for you, it's
Speaker 2: getting on a plane and watching a movie crying.
Speaker 1: My ass off. Yeah, we're watching a Muppet movie, because
Speaker 1: I'm here to tell you those damn Muppet movies. I
Speaker 1: went when I was in college. I remember it was
Speaker 1: in like the either late eighties, early nineties, and it
Speaker 1: was the Muppet Christmas Carol. And I went by myself
Speaker 1: because nobody would go with me because there are a
Speaker 1: bunch of butts. And I went by myself and I
Speaker 1: was in the back of the theater by myself for real,
Speaker 1: and I am bowling at the Muppet so and then
Speaker 1: I watched it on a plane one time, so it
Speaker 1: was a double doozy.
Speaker 3: It was like plane and Muppets.
Speaker 1: Plane and Muppets get me every time. But to know
Speaker 1: that you can get that out though, like I love
Speaker 1: that I know who I am.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's super it's super helpful. And so again for
Speaker 2: empathic listeners like this, this tension builds and you have
Speaker 2: to be really mindful of what you're consuming from media,
Speaker 2: whichever your media sources. I understand want to be informed,
Speaker 2: wanting to understand, super critical and don't over index on it,
Speaker 2: especially if it's going to fry you, right, so step
Speaker 2: away from that. And it could be I need to
Speaker 2: dance it out. It could be I need to listen
Speaker 2: to sad music and right because I hits the emotional field,
Speaker 2: so I need to have that sort of release. Super helpful.
Speaker 2: So there's all kinds of healthy options. But monitoring the
Speaker 2: consumption and then monitoring the self care of processing and
Speaker 2: releasing are going to be really helpful for you.
Speaker 1: Yeah, And you know, I have a go to and
Speaker 1: it's my song that when the world's really confusing to me,
Speaker 1: it seems to be more than I but it is.
Speaker 1: It's four non Blades and it's called What's Up. And
Speaker 1: it's like I know every word to that song, and
Speaker 1: I'll walk around and I'll sing it and I get
Speaker 1: it out of my body, because part of that is
Speaker 1: getting it out of your body. I also just recently,
Speaker 1: somebody asked me a really important question. I said, wait
Speaker 1: a second, and they go, what why, And I said,
Speaker 1: I'm dropping a ground in court. I need to make
Speaker 1: sure that I'm very clear on the answer that I'm
Speaker 1: giving to you, because you just asked me some thing
Speaker 1: really important, and I don't want everything else to influence
Speaker 1: what it is. And and so just I think that awareness,
Speaker 1: like you said, and finding that thing. I mean, there
Speaker 1: was a time when I years ago and living in
Speaker 1: la uh again, work could anger me. I mean it
Speaker 1: ankers most people. You know. It's not always you know,
Speaker 1: having cheese fondue in the Alps, and it sounds really good,
Speaker 1: doesn't it. Unless you're lactose intolerant. It sounds like a nightmare.
Speaker 1: So uh And and mine was I would ride my
Speaker 1: bike then, and because I remember telling people I was
Speaker 1: so incredibly mad before I got on my bike, but
Speaker 1: I can't remember what I was mad about now right again.
Speaker 1: Mine is the physical because they to me that's how
Speaker 1: I do it. Some people that yoga some people you know,
Speaker 1: it could be combination too, by the way, you don't
Speaker 1: do just one.
Speaker 3: Yeah, but just.
Speaker 2: Find you what it is, our phone a friend. Sometimes
Speaker 2: I just need to talk to someone. I need to
Speaker 2: giggle and write, find find some relief and remember that
Speaker 2: the world is bicker and that in the in the
Speaker 2: long run, everything's okay.
Speaker 1: Watch old episodes of Golden Girls. It works for me
Speaker 1: every time it does. Can I tell you during COVID
Speaker 1: because this reminds me a lot of what we were
Speaker 1: talking about.
Speaker 2: During the tension, especially at the beginning when we didn't
Speaker 2: know what was what it was so stressful.
Speaker 1: My sacred place was the Golden Girls and laugh all
Speaker 1: you want, but it actually worked, of course. Yeah, it
Speaker 1: was like it was time travel and I needed to
Speaker 1: time travel away from the present because I couldn't do
Speaker 1: anything about it.
Speaker 3: And like, wellthing you watched with your mom, right, and
Speaker 3: I go, oh, yes, yes, it was.
Speaker 1: I know. I always it's like it's like a fuzzy
Speaker 1: blanket to me. It's like Linus and Golden Girls is
Speaker 1: my fuzzy blanket because my mom and I, yes, I
Speaker 1: used to hang out on Saturday nights with my mother
Speaker 1: and because it used to air Saturday night and we
Speaker 1: would watch Golden Girls and we would giggle like little
Speaker 1: school while I was technically a schoolgirl and a good
Speaker 1: giggle like a school girl. So it is a very
Speaker 1: comforting thing for me. And so to know what those
Speaker 1: things are, because sometimes we do need to escape from
Speaker 1: what things are happening, not like permanently, but like just
Speaker 1: to get a kind of a grip and get your
Speaker 1: arms around things. I think that that's actually necessary, you know,
Speaker 1: And lately lately, you know, because I notice, like I
Speaker 1: think other m paths will probably agree, if you let
Speaker 1: that tension build up, you do explode because I can be.
Speaker 1: I am a very fiery human being and when all
Speaker 1: that pressure and that means I'm firing off at people
Speaker 1: who do not deserve my rage and my.
Speaker 2: Find Well, that's the thing. When you don't tend to it,
Speaker 2: when you don't tend to yourself, you don't tend if
Speaker 2: you're not paying attention to where how hiw your stress
Speaker 2: is getting, you can't you can't do anything about it, right,
Speaker 2: So it's gonna come out sideways. It just comes out sideways.
Speaker 2: So what do you what are you going to do?
Speaker 2: Call you know, the Ukraine and yell at them, called Russia,
Speaker 2: yell yell at them. No, you've got to be able
Speaker 2: to manage this yourself, right, right.
Speaker 1: Because also to know what you can and cannot do.
Speaker 3: Right.
Speaker 1: In fact, why don't we take a quick break and
Speaker 1: let's talk about that, because I think that's a really
Speaker 1: important thing to put things in perspective. So we're going
Speaker 1: to come back with a little perspective.
Speaker 2: Y'all be right back.
Speaker 1: Oh good lord, she brought us back with a giggle again, y'all.
Speaker 1: Another way, by the way, is humor. Don't forget that
Speaker 1: helping mechanism. But to your point what you were saying about,
Speaker 1: what am I going to do? Call up you know,
Speaker 1: the world leader of Ukraine. You know, of course you're not.
Speaker 1: And I think part of you know, we've always talked
Speaker 1: about how this is a really great quote and I
Speaker 1: don't think it's exact, because you know, I don't live
Speaker 1: in that world of exact is, but it was the
Speaker 1: quote is that we are not creatures that think and
Speaker 1: sometimes feel. We are creatures that feel and sometimes think,
Speaker 1: and if we're able to in these situations like we're
Speaker 1: living in today, is what you are in charge of
Speaker 1: and what you are not in charge of. I am
Speaker 1: not in charge of disasters in the world. I will
Speaker 1: do my part when it comes to like the like uh,
Speaker 1: fires and floods and things like that. I will help
Speaker 1: where I can, I will support where I can. I
Speaker 1: cannot control them. I will recycle, I will do my
Speaker 1: best to walk everywhere, you know, put solar on my
Speaker 1: roof whatever it is like. I can do those things,
Speaker 1: but I can't solve them all, just like you can't
Speaker 1: call Zelensky in Ukraine. Right, I don't think that in
Speaker 1: Yahoo would take my call, and so or any any
Speaker 1: other world putin definitely won't take my call. But to
Speaker 1: know that these are not things. These are things that
Speaker 1: we feel that we are the receiver of and things
Speaker 1: that we don't have power over. And to it that
Speaker 1: be like, you know what, I can only do what
Speaker 1: I can do. Whether you can comfort her. You can
Speaker 1: also be the person somebody calls instead of you the
Speaker 1: phone a friend. You can be the friend that can
Speaker 1: also be able to talk people through that or give
Speaker 1: them a hug, do whatever it is to help that
Speaker 1: release that anxiety, that tension. Like I just saw a
Speaker 1: new friend that we made in Las Vegas, New Mexico.
Speaker 1: For those that didn't know, there was a Las Vegas
Speaker 1: in New Mexico. And her name is Rachel and she
Speaker 1: owns this really great store there called Gather and Weave.
Speaker 1: How I remember all this as shocking today. And when
Speaker 1: I saw her, I went up to her and gave
Speaker 1: her the biggest hug and she goes, oh, that's amazing,
Speaker 1: and it's just like but that was a healing thing.
Speaker 1: You know, we all know I'm a hugger, we've talked
Speaker 1: about it, but it's like that's my way, and it's
Speaker 1: like and she has nothing to do what's going on.
Speaker 1: You know, she can't control it either, but she needed
Speaker 1: to feel that there's some goodness in the world. So
Speaker 1: sometimes if you can be that goodness in the.
Speaker 2: World right right, well, And the other thing is I
Speaker 2: think it's important to know what you can do, and
Speaker 2: offering a healing prayer yes right is super helpful and
Speaker 2: it matters because you know, instead of going after the
Speaker 2: they and them versus we are all connected, Yeah, we
Speaker 2: are right, and so remembering you're connected, I'm connected. There's
Speaker 2: no them, are there? That beautiful Buddhist loving kindness meditation
Speaker 2: that says, may I be happy, May I be healthy,
Speaker 2: may be free from inner or outer and outer harm.
Speaker 2: May I care for myself joyfully. May you be happy,
Speaker 2: May you be healthy, May you be free from inner
Speaker 2: and outer harm. May you care for yourself joyfully. May
Speaker 2: all be happy, May all be healthy, May all be
Speaker 2: free from inner and outer harm. May all care for
Speaker 2: themselves joyfully. Like letting that be that the sentiment. You
Speaker 2: may say those words, you may say something else, but
Speaker 2: that interconnectivity that we share as humanity. May that be
Speaker 2: activated in your heart space that just says we're all
Speaker 2: on this planet together. May we find our way because
Speaker 2: ultimately we all want the same thing. We all want
Speaker 2: the same thing. Look, I'm on a funeral tour in
Speaker 2: different states, you know right now, Like there's nothing like
Speaker 2: having someone jump the planet that gets you really clear
Speaker 2: about what's essential, right, and what we want is just

Speaker 2: and have you know, basics of food, shelter, you know,
Speaker 2: all the all the things right, Ultimately, that's what matters.

Speaker 1: with Earth events, disasters combined with human disasters wars right
Speaker 1: like we got the pylon, and how can we love

Speaker 1: is that I don't care who you are. If you're
Speaker 1: gonna ask me to take a side, I'm not taking
Speaker 1: one because I'm taking humanity as my side. I have
Speaker 1: to otherwise, you know, bad Julie comes out to play

Speaker 1: and to be so mindful and more and thoughtful about
Speaker 1: your actions, thoughtful about how you care for yourself in
Speaker 1: the process, and because you have so much power when
