Transcript
- 0:08SPEAKER_00: Well, it is slowed down Sunday here on the Sweet Spot.
- 0:14SPEAKER_00: And man, have we had a great week.
- 0:17SPEAKER_00: We've had a fantastic week, haven't we, sweet spotters?
- 0:20SPEAKER_00: So I'm Dr.
- 0:21SPEAKER_00: Derek Sweet.
- 0:22SPEAKER_00: For those of you who don't know me, I'm a board certified psychiatrist.
- 0:26SPEAKER_00: We don't have guests on the sweet spot.
- 0:29SPEAKER_00: This is new territory for us.
- 0:30SPEAKER_00: And Darcell, I have to say, this has been one of the most insightful sweet spots we have done, thanks to you.
- 0:40SPEAKER_01: Wow.
- 0:40SPEAKER_01: Thank you for those wonderful accolades.
- 0:42SPEAKER_01: And it's a pleasure and a joy to be here with the sweet spotters and all the beautiful souls.
- 0:46SPEAKER_01: Thank you.
- 0:46SPEAKER_00: We try not to introduce anything new here on Slowdown Sunday.
- 0:52SPEAKER_00: And in fact, also we sometimes get a little bit, I call it spooky.
- 0:56SPEAKER_00: We get into some astrophysics, we get into what the universe teaches us, and we get into nature and the lessons from nature.
- 1:04SPEAKER_00: We still didn't know that I'm God.
- 1:06SPEAKER_00: There's divine direction that comes from being still.
- 1:12SPEAKER_00: And we were talking yesterday about how hard it is to take a deep breath, to surrender, and imagine silence and solitude and stillness and surrender.
- 1:24SPEAKER_00: Finding a time to allow those forces to have access to who we are is the work that we tackle on Slowdown Sunday.
- 1:39SPEAKER_01: Because the truth is we do need that sweet spot of our stillness.
- 1:45SPEAKER_01: For me, yeah, that five minutes is sometimes tough to get, but there's another side of me as I've grown older, Dr.
- 1:52SPEAKER_01: Sweet, and that is I'm a beachwalker, a beachwalker, I'm a skywatcher, and I love, absolutely love the stars and the clouds, and a good rain, and a good storm and a good sunny day.
- 2:13SPEAKER_01: So nature does teach us a lot.
- 2:15SPEAKER_01: So everything you said there, I vibe with it because as we all do slow down, and we have to, you are dealing with a book on sleep soon.
- 2:25SPEAKER_01: So most of your fans out there who may not know that you're working on this.
- 2:31SPEAKER_01: That is such a solitude and such an incredible, peaceful part of who we are as humans.
- 2:39SPEAKER_01: Other animals sleep too, they all do.
- 2:42SPEAKER_01: So that's a sweet spot that we all have that is demanded of our physique every single night.
- 2:50SPEAKER_01: When you don't have it, you can't do much.
- 2:55SPEAKER_01: You can't be at your best.
- 2:56SPEAKER_01: You can't do any of the things you and I talked about all week.
- 2:58SPEAKER_01: You can't finish strong, you can't win.
- 3:01SPEAKER_01: There's a lot wrong when you don't get that sweet sleep.
- 3:06SPEAKER_00: Wow, Dorothy.
- 3:08SPEAKER_00: I just blown away.
- 3:09SPEAKER_00: I again only you could say the sweet spot that I'm in the sweet spot.
- 3:14SPEAKER_00: It's the first time somebody's told me, Dr.
- 3:17SPEAKER_00: Sweet, you're in the sweet spot.
- 3:20SPEAKER_00: And that's what it is here on Slow Down Sundays, finding your sweet spot.
- 3:25SPEAKER_01: I was thinking as you were talking about slowing down and nature, there's series, and and when I do slow down, I have to have an entertainment piece in front of me.
- 3:37SPEAKER_01: So that's why I'm really able to watch some of the series I'm watching and some of the movies I'm watching.
- 3:42SPEAKER_01: I can take the time out to allow my sensory to connect with what's in front of me on that screen.
- 3:50SPEAKER_01: And it's full of humans, it's full of stories, it's full of folks going through stuff.
- 3:55SPEAKER_01: So there's one series I just watched called Ripple.
- 3:58SPEAKER_01: And if you're out there listening, you haven't heard of it, look it up because life is a rippling effect, and that's a notoric episode happening.
- 4:09SPEAKER_01: It's also circumstantial and situational.
- 4:13SPEAKER_01: When a rippling effect happens on a lake, you throw a rock and you see wave after wave after wave after wave, it ripples and it just begins to flow, and that ripple just grows.
- 4:27SPEAKER_01: So a rippling effect in all of our lives, when we slow down enough to catch on to it, it goes back into what Dr.
- 4:32SPEAKER_01: Sweet's talking about coincidence and incidents and situations.
- 4:37SPEAKER_01: So one action begets another action.
- 4:41SPEAKER_01: And when you have that rippling effect, it's movement, something is happening.
- 4:46SPEAKER_01: So even when you slow down, I would like to leave everybody with understanding that life is full of ripples.
- 4:54SPEAKER_01: And those ripples connect us back to other people's lives.
- 4:59SPEAKER_00: Amen.
- 5:00SPEAKER_00: As you say that, I'm thinking past, future, present.
- 5:04SPEAKER_00: We divide it up into that, but there are ripple effects.
- 5:07SPEAKER_00: We've lost loved ones, new ones have come into the world.
- 5:13SPEAKER_00: There's yesterday, there's today, there's tomorrow.
- 5:17SPEAKER_00: This in astrophysics and physics, there's really no past, future, or present.
- 5:24SPEAKER_00: There's just this dynamic, there's ripples, there's this rippling effects, rippling effects.
- 5:29SPEAKER_00: So with that metaphysical, very metaphysical ending, we are going to close out the sweet spot here.
- 5:38SPEAKER_00: Our very first interview with our very first guest, inaugural moment, pioneering moment with the great and the inimitable Darcell Dillett Sweet.
- 5:51SPEAKER_00: I know you enjoyed everyone, sweet spotters.
- 5:54SPEAKER_00: I know you enjoyed Darcell.
- 5:56SPEAKER_00: I know you did.

- 5:59SPEAKER_00: She's spring.
- 6:00SPEAKER_00: And we we love you, Darcell.
- 6:02SPEAKER_00: We thank you for your time, your energy, your wisdom.
- 6:06SPEAKER_00: We thank you for your bubbly spirit, your just your honesty, your integrity, all of what makes you you.
- 6:14SPEAKER_00: May God bless you, and I'll see you tonight.
- 6:18SPEAKER_01: Thank you everyone for listening.
- 6:20SPEAKER_01: And this has been the sweet spot, and it's been my sweet honor.
- 6:24SPEAKER_00: Absolutely.
- 6:25SPEAKER_00: And if you haven't subscribed to the sweet spot, now is a great time because we're going to be bringing on guests.
- 6:32SPEAKER_00: And uh man, we're going to be just growing and growing and allowing the good Lord to lead us where the good Lord wants us to be.
- 6:42SPEAKER_00: Take care.
