  You could ever imagine join Kim every morning from one of her.
• 0:20
  Favorite happy places her chicken coop, along with all her
• 0:23
  chickens. Hey everybody, good morning.
• 0:30
  I'm from the porch because it's pouring again, we're in a really
• 0:35
  rainy pattern. Think we're going to have days
• 0:38
  of this, but the reason I'm on the porch this morning is not
• 0:42
  because of just the rain, listen to The Sounds in the background
• 0:47
  today. Can you hear all of that summer
• 0:51
  sound happening with the frogs and the toads and the birds?
• 0:55
  And the sun is not even up yet here and listen to that, it's
• 0:59
  crazy. See how loud it is.
• 1:02
  This is something that I absolutely cherish to hear
• 1:06
  hearing the rooster off in the background, hearing all of these
• 1:10
  little sounds like this. This is the reason we live,
• 1:15
  where we live. So we can hear these kinds of
• 1:18
  sounds and sit out here and meditate on them.
• 1:21
  Why is this important and why are we talking about this?
• 1:24
  Because this is a Reload for me, this is something that I hear
• 1:30
  listen to That for a second, just listen.
• 1:36
  That just Is So Glorious to me. Now, it might not be glorious to
• 1:41
  you, but to me, it means that summer is here.
• 1:46
  It's time to take a breath. It's time to just hunker down
• 1:50
  and sit and relax, a little bit from all the hard work of
• 1:54
  planting, and, and learning, and growing, and doing all those
• 1:59
  things. And then sometimes you just have
• 2:01
  to sit and pause. And this is my message that I
• 2:04
  always say, comes from the universe.
• 2:06
  God to say, hey you know what, and you start hearing these
• 2:09
  sounds, it's time to be a little, a little less focused on
• 2:14
  the getting things done, in a little more focused on enjoying
• 2:17
  the things that are getting done and I always try to find those
• 2:21
  seasonal reminders and for me, having them and just pausing and
• 2:26
  going sound so great. And it for so many reasons, one,
• 2:30
  I'm just obsessed with frogs. I love them.
• 2:32
  I think they're adorable to the means the property.
• 2:36
  Is thriving because there are zero chemicals used here.
• 2:40
  So we are essentially having those animals just everywhere
• 2:45
  here and they're thriving, which is wonderful for me.
• 2:49
  And three. It's that sound that says I can
• 2:53
  go back in time. To remember, sleepy hazy
• 2:56
  mornings of being a child and hearing that at my own house,
• 2:59
  when I grew up and, or being camping, and hearing it.
• 3:02
  So many great things. So, it's a instant, Charge, if
• 3:06
  you will it's just that moment of plug-in that says stop pause
• 3:11
  and really appreciate what you're hearing and reload
• 3:16
  yourself to know life is not about just getting things done
• 3:20
  and I can't stress that enough life is not just about getting
• 3:23
  things done, it's about enjoying the process and it's not about
• 3:26
  just enjoying it on Saturday or Sunday.
• 3:29
  It's about enjoying every day and finding your things that you
• 3:32
  enjoy every single day, little by little piece.
• 3:36
  By piece. And having those recharges mean
• 3:41
  more to you than you could ever imagine psychologically because
• 3:45
  it's an instant boost its honestly it is an instant boost
• 3:49
  when you stop and you do it. So your mission is going to be
• 3:53
  knowing what yours are and when you find them don't ignore them.
• 3:56
  Don't say I'll do it after because you'll forget do it
• 3:59
  instantaneously. If it's reading one page from a
• 4:02
  book every morning, if it's stopping and pausing and
• 4:05
  listening. 30 seconds and just I mean I was going to shoot a
• 4:09
  completely different podcast this morning.
• 4:11
  I walked out heard this. I stopped, I put myself in this
• 4:16
  place of just going into that and I just stopped and took it
• 4:21
  all in and then I was like, huh, I should do that for the podcast
• 4:24
  today. And then, that's the beautiful
• 4:26
  part of doing the podcast. I can do whatever I want.
• 4:29
  I'll save tomorrow's for today's for tomorrow, and then I will
• 4:32
  shoot this one today and boom. There we go.
• 4:36
  So, the point is, you have an opportunity every day, and every
• 4:42
  moment you can stop and do this that you see, you are going to
• 4:48
  lift yourself up. You're going to plug yourself
• 4:50
  back in, you were going to feel good and sometimes I will be
• 4:54
  honest with you, I will have days where I do that, probably
• 4:57
  30 times a day with different things, whether it's a flower,
• 5:00
  whether it's just stopping and pausing and like listening like
• 5:04
  this, whatever it might be. Find your things that plug you
• 5:08
  back in because then that lets you really be the master of
• 5:12
  owning yourself and making things happen.
• 5:14
  I hope you guys have a very, very blessed day today.
• 5:17
  I hope you find some really cool things to stop and pause with
• 5:22
  and I will see you all tomorrow. Bye.
