- 0:06SPEAKER_00: Hi there, sweet spotters.
- 0:08SPEAKER_00: What's up?
- 0:08SPEAKER_00: How are you doing?
- 0:09SPEAKER_00: I hope you're well.
- 0:11SPEAKER_00: I am.
- 0:12SPEAKER_00: I hope you're having a great Saturday today.
- 0:15SPEAKER_00: And if you're not, we're gonna do it together.
- 0:17SPEAKER_00: We're gonna figure out a way to get you to have a great Saturday because you deserve a great Saturday.
- 0:23SPEAKER_00: And if you're up and you're walking around and you're alive and you're well, I'm gonna say this.
- 0:29SPEAKER_00: Today is a day that the Lord has made you and I are challenged to rejoice and be glad in it.
- 0:38SPEAKER_00: Something wonderful is gonna happen today.
- 0:41SPEAKER_00: We're gonna make it so.
- 0:43SPEAKER_00: It's all the attitude, you know.
- 0:45SPEAKER_00: And look, today is Selfcare Saturday on the sweet spot, and what we're doing right now is we're talking about the seven alignments.
- 0:53SPEAKER_00: We are aligning ourselves so that we can get the best out of life.
- 0:59SPEAKER_00: And today we find ourselves in episode six, where we align with restoration so that our mind, our body, and our spirit will get a chance to exhale.
- 1:12SPEAKER_00: Yeah, absolutely.
- 1:14SPEAKER_00: We've aligned with truth this week, we've aligned with energy this week, we've aligned with purpose, we've aligned with becoming, and we've aligned with discipline.
- 1:26SPEAKER_00: And now, now today, we enter the alignment that gives all the others their longevity, and that's restoration.
- 1:38SPEAKER_00: On a day like today, one of those reflective days, right?
- 1:43SPEAKER_00: Restoration is not optional, it's sacred.
- 1:46SPEAKER_00: And why does it matter?
- 1:48SPEAKER_00: Because rest is stopping.
- 1:50SPEAKER_00: When we rest, we stop.
- 1:52SPEAKER_00: But you know, when we're talking about restoration, restoration is about returning.
- 1:57SPEAKER_00: Rest is stopping, restoration is returning, returning to clarity, returning to calm, returning to the self that the world has worn down a bit.
- 2:13SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 2:14SPEAKER_00: For renewal, for renewal.
- 2:20SPEAKER_00: We're gonna stop resisting the inner experience that's taking us away from our energy, that's misaligning us, and we're gonna get into restoration.
- 2:33SPEAKER_00: We're gonna sit, we're gonna breathe, we're gonna relax, we're gonna remember that we're not alone.
- 2:43SPEAKER_00: We're gonna let our mind, our body, and our spirit align.
- 2:49SPEAKER_00: We're gonna find our divine connection today.
- 2:53SPEAKER_00: It's self-care Saturday.
- 2:55SPEAKER_00: We're gonna put ourselves first, we're gonna put the oxygen mask on us first before we help anybody else.
- 3:02SPEAKER_00: We're gonna help ourselves, and that's okay.
- 3:08SPEAKER_00: Deep breath with me right now.
- 3:10SPEAKER_00: Nice deep breath in through your nose and hold and then slowly exhale, letting your exhale be longer than your inhale.
- 3:24SPEAKER_00: Just to become aware.
- 3:26SPEAKER_00: This is your Saturday, this is your time, and it's good to be meditative, it's good to pray, it's good to be aligned with your divine purpose.
- 3:37SPEAKER_00: In the ancient wisdom, in Matthew 11, verse 28, it's saying this come away with me, recover your life.
- 3:51SPEAKER_00: In the King James Version of that, it simply says, I will give you rest.
- 3:58SPEAKER_00: Beloved, I will give you rest.
- 4:01SPEAKER_00: Restoration is alignment with divine peace, and you deserve that today.
- 4:09SPEAKER_00: But you gotta reach for it.
- 4:11SPEAKER_00: It's not just gonna fall out of the sky on you.
- 4:14SPEAKER_00: Now it's possible that it could, but more than likely, you're gonna have to reach for your divine restoration.
- 4:21SPEAKER_00: You're gonna have to draw a line, you're gonna have to take a minute for yourself, you're gonna have to turn the phone off, turn the TV off, maybe isolate yourself for a couple of minutes, just sit in the chair, take a couple of breaths, listen to a song that you like, go for the walk, take care of you so that future you can be okay.
- 4:43SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 4:44SPEAKER_00: Today I want you to ask yourself what do I need to release so my body can finally exhale?
- 4:54SPEAKER_00: Yeah, try the letting go breath.
- 4:58SPEAKER_00: Inhale slowly once again.
- 5:01SPEAKER_00: Name the feeling you're feeling, hold gently, and then exhale the tension downward.
- 5:11SPEAKER_00: Your body knows what to do, you know.
- 5:14SPEAKER_00: Once you take a couple of deep breaths, once you slow down, once you give your body a chance to rest and recover and rejuvenate and replenish.
- 5:27SPEAKER_00: That's your job today.
- 5:29SPEAKER_00: Doctor's orders, okay?
- 5:31SPEAKER_00: You're gonna take a minute, you're gonna take two minutes.
- 5:34SPEAKER_00: Oh my goodness, you're gonna take three.
- 5:36SPEAKER_00: Okay, let's go for it.
- 5:37SPEAKER_00: You're gonna take five minutes for you today.
- 5:41SPEAKER_00: Five minutes out of the 24 hours just for you.
- 5:48SPEAKER_00: And let's see what your body does with that.
- 5:52SPEAKER_00: As you align yourself with your restoration, you deserve it.
- 6:00SPEAKER_00: You're listening to the sweet spot.
- 6:02SPEAKER_00: This is self-care Saturday.
- 6:04SPEAKER_00: I'm Dr.
- 6:05SPEAKER_00: Derek Sweet, and I'm on the journey with you.
- 6:08SPEAKER_00: We're on the journey of alignment tomorrow.
- 6:12SPEAKER_00: Tomorrow we rise into cosmic perspective.
- 6:15SPEAKER_00: As you know, we go into the astrophysics on Sunday, on Slowdown Sunday.
- 6:20SPEAKER_00: We're gonna align with our perspective tomorrow.
- 6:23SPEAKER_00: We're gonna align with perspective, the alignment that lifts your life above the distraction, above the noise.
- 6:32SPEAKER_00: So until then, promise me you're gonna take care of you today.
- 6:37SPEAKER_00: Promise me you're not just gonna run around and take care of everybody else.
- 6:42SPEAKER_00: Promise me that you're not just gonna get every assignment done with and then sacrifice yourself in the middle.
- 6:48SPEAKER_00: Promise me that.
- 6:50SPEAKER_00: And I'll see you tomorrow for slowdown Sunday, my friends.
- 6:56SPEAKER_00: One breath at a time, one alignment at a time.
- 7:01SPEAKER_00: Love and blessings.
