• 0:00
  Hello, and welcome to another episode of The Sound Within.
• 0:04
  My name is Hannah, and I wanted to talk about gratitude.
• 0:14
  I'm sitting here in my yard, and it's feeling very peaceful.
• 0:25
  I hear crickets and birds I'm sitting on my new chair that I got from a store not too long ago.
• 0:38
  And I'm just really grateful for all of the connections that I've made over the past six months or so,
• 0:49
  and I used to kind of think that TikTok was silly.
• 0:55
  And when it rebooted I for some reason had interest in exploring and I thought
• 1:05
  it was so cool that you could just scroll on your for you page and find people doing,
• 1:13
  all sorts of different cool things in real time and talk to them and interact with them.
• 1:22
  And you can find people painting, singing, playing instruments,
• 1:27
  all the stuff, anything that you could possibly be interested in.
• 1:33
  You may be able to find a live stream about it.
• 1:36
  And I found such interest in
• 1:38
  that for a while until I found my beautiful friend, Amber June, on there.
• 1:49
  And I had no idea that our connection would blossom as it has.
• 2:02
  I'm so lucky to have met her and learned so much from her.
• 2:06
  That I have taken with me in my everyday life.
• 2:11
  And she always said, I hope that you can take with you some of what came up
• 2:19
  in the session today. And I truly did, and I still do.
• 2:25
  And she is my bestest friend in the world now.
• 2:32
  Not only that, but I was actually given this very own platform that I'm speaking
• 2:39
  so freely on right now by my lovely friend Gary with EyeOpener Society.
• 2:46
  This is his society that he has built by building connections with people,
• 2:54
  some of which he has never met and have only connected with online on TikTok.
• 3:01
  That's how he found me is coming into one of my streams and saying,
• 3:06
  hey, we'd love to have you on my podcast.
• 3:09
  And we connected from there and I got to know him and he has been a light in
• 3:16
  my life to actually give me an uncensored platform,
• 3:22
  which I can voice my inner thoughts and inspirations and creations.
• 3:35
  And we were just talking not too long ago this morning,
• 3:42
  and I was talking about how I'm feeling a little burnt out from putting myself
• 3:48
  in the public eye so much.
• 3:51
  I think I just put too much pressure on myself, so I'm just going to start doing
• 3:56
  my live streams Monday, Tuesday, and Friday.
• 4:02
  Just take a little bit of the load off of me.
• 4:04
  And it was never supposed to be like that. It was supposed to be fun,
• 4:10
  just me sharing my healing space with others.
• 4:14
  However, as I spoke about in my very first episode, there's a lot of energy
• 4:20
  exchange that goes on in those rooms because you never know what someone's intentions are.
• 4:28
  And energy, of course, reaches further than our fingertips.
• 4:37
  So, me with mostly open centers in human design, I'm taking in all of that energy
• 4:46
  and I'm not knowing what's mine and what is someone else's.
• 4:52
  And so I'm just grounding myself in this exact moment,
• 5:00
  and really reflecting on how special the connections that I've made are.
• 5:09
  Not only the new connections that I've made, but all of my existing connections,
• 5:18
  including my family, my parents, my siblings, my childhood friends, my high school friends,
• 5:30
  friends from Florida.
• 5:35
  And now all of the connections that I've made online in this community.
• 5:40
  I'm just really grateful. And the power of connection and community is unbelievable.
• 5:51
  And I know people always say that saying that it takes a village.
• 5:56
  Mainly they're talking about raising a child.
• 5:59
  It takes a village. But I think that we all have our inner child that is also requiring a village.
• 6:15
  And it's so beautiful to know that there's so many good people still out there in the world,
• 6:23
  because a lot of I'm not going to speak for everybody but for me I have seen a lot of bad.
• 6:36
  And I've experienced a lot of bad And so with that I really just,
• 6:49
  Kind of gave up on making connections for a while,
• 6:56
  I was just stuck in the idea that I had no friends And that I hated people I
• 7:02
  would actually say that, that I hated people, which is so not true. I love people.
• 7:08
  I have just been failed by some friends and past experiences.
• 7:16
  I've also failed others.
• 7:21
  So all we can do is take that and
• 7:24
  try to be the best person that we can be today
• 7:27
  and even if we failed today we can go to sleep and wake up tomorrow and do it
• 7:33
  again because we have this beautiful element that gives us life which is breath
• 7:40
  every single day and we do it innately to live.
• 7:45
  Most of us do it with ease, and some of us even struggle with breath,
• 7:54
  but it still provides life.
• 7:57
  So I'm sitting here next to the trees in my new chair that I have a back on.
• 8:09
  Which I'm grateful for because my back was hurting when I was sitting out here
• 8:12
  meditating and I had nothing to lean on.
• 8:16
  And so that's another thing that I'm grateful for. I'm sitting here next to
• 8:21
  these trees that are giving me such beautiful fresh air to inhale into my lungs
• 8:26
  and release all of the stuck energy that no longer serves me.
• 8:32
  And me and my partner and my children are going to a corn maze today This is
• 8:41
  probably going to be released,
• 8:44
  Two weeks after we have gone to the corn maze,
• 8:50
  However, I'm really excited to experience fall activities with my family This
• 9:00
  is actually the first holiday season that we are all together for the first time.
• 9:06
  So I'm so excited to experience that love and that nostalgic feeling that I often talk about.
• 9:18
  That I so lovingly experienced with my family as a child.
• 9:25
  And I suppose the message for today's episode is just to remain grateful for
• 9:35
  everything that we do have and not focus on everything that we don't have.
