Hi everybody, it's Sandy.  That's just not my my jam I like happy Halloween cards if I'm gonna do any at all and this little guy has a pumpkin sitting next to him in The stamp itself, but when I stamped it, I just masked out the pumpkin I used my misty to stamp it so that I could place the little sticky note in the right place To not stamp the pumpkin and that leaves me free to send this any time of year And when I was a kid my dad always said trick-or-treat smell my feet Which is the sentiment on this he would say that just when he took his shoes off in the middle of summer Just cuz my dad was that way and so for me It's a year-round kind of a sentiment and this little guy would be perfect for kids any time Even if it was you know balloons with a birthday card a lot of different stamps you could combine something like this with But I'm doing the Copic coloring I'm rushing through this I've got it sped up to twice the normal speed and I'm kind of cutting out the little bits where I go and Change markers out because the focus on this is not the Copic coloring It's on the actual construction of the card that will be coming up later But I wanted to show you at least the Copic coloring even quickly So that we could talk through a few things one of which is this is a natural blending group I've talked about them before and if you go to any of my beginner Copic tutorials a number of them talk about it It's v12 v1 7 and v1 5 are the trio that I'm using and whenever it has the letter and then the first digit In common and then the only difference is the last digit those are going to blend easier than if you change those up So you want to if you're really struggling with your blending just stay with ones that have same letter and the same first number Because that first number indicates the saturation and you want to make sure you keep the saturation the same Saturation is how intense the color is so you don't want a really bright color trying to mix with a really dull color so I'm adding yellow and Green to this one just in case I decide to send it during the Halloween season It's gonna go in my stash and I'll find somebody who needs a big old crazy smile to send this one to But I'm gonna add my shading to the green. I'm just gonna do two colors on the green and I I don't really need to do a whole lot more than that because that's not the focal point of the coloring and Besides which even the coloring on this is really loose I wanted to keep it deliberately loose because the stamp set itself is drawn really loose So I didn't want to fuss too much over a lot of the shading and stuff But I'm adding a wire zero four to the Y one seven for the shading and Go over that a little bit with an E zero eight because that was just not enough contrast Because as I was looking at this I was realizing that I just don't have much contrast at all Because I when I went over the violet with the what the V one two, which was my lightest color It kind of lightened everything So I decided I was gonna go in and add more contrast So I figured I'd add it to the toes anyway and then go back and add more to The purple parts so I went with a V zero nine if the V one family had a V one nine I'd be really happy because that one would would go better This one is a little bit duller than the purples that I'm using but that's okay Well looks like somebody must be on on the whole Periscope there got my little Whistling to tell me that somebody's gone live if you have not gotten into the periscope thing I highly recommend it. It is addictive as I'll get out and I'm having a blast going and seeing things I actually watched a Department of Defense video the other day. It was really interesting and Yeah Anyway All right back to yammering about the coloring I'm adding my darkest shades in the darkest places and then I go in with One shade lighter then so I'm going back in with my V ones again To try to darken that and and blend the V zero nine which was so dark into the other colors and then just going back through my my Complement of the V colors that I'd already used and I'm careful around the eyes because I didn't want to add Frowns to his eyeball eyebrows if you do too much of that above the eyes you could actually end up making them look kind of mean So now I'm going to color a second set of feet This stamp set has an extra set of feet and I'll zoom through it because you've already seen the feet being colored But if you have a stamp you want to use an action wobble with like this Just stamp a portion of the image and you can fussy cut out those feet This one comes with a die in the set But you could do it with a set that you don't have the die for and that doesn't have the separate stamp by just Trimming out that second part so that you can add that when you layer the action wobble on top Which you will see in a minute and that will all make much more sense So this one comes with the action wobble and I've gone and I cut it out But I want to get busy on my card construction. So I've got the image now adhered inside of my card base and I'm Marking here where I want to put this Lawn Fawn die. It's a cloud die But I'm going to use it for the bottom of the bedspread So I've marked with a pencil where I want those the that thing to rest which actually wasn't in the right place But you'll see how that works out in a minute This is an action wobble and you can tell which way is the right way to do it by which way flicks the way you want it the second way that side Does a little better of the bouncing around so I want that side facing My little feet you could do it the other way and it'll still bounce around It just won't bounce around as much so I just kind of hold it and Twing it until I see which side is gonna bounce the way that I want it to So I'm gonna add that right on top of his feet and now I can see How it's gonna work and it bounces nicely, which is great But then I had to work a little bit too hard to get this under there So I actually ended up die cutting it a little bit shorter So that it doesn't have to tuck quite so far underneath of the feet But it still does work even with a piece underneath of it And then I went to find some paper I wanted to put some pattern paper on it for the bedspread because that's the bed hanging down it over top of our little monster and I used the same die to die cut that and While I was doing it I shortened the front of the card and then lined these two up and trimmed off the three excess sides This is bow bunny paper from like ages ago I hoard this stuff because I love the polka dots and it comes in all different colors So I unfortunately can't link you to it But I'll see if I can find any more dotted papers that I could link you to if you want to do something like this You can make pencil lines though on whatever pattern paper you want to use for the bedspread And then I'm actually going to color on it with Copics following along with the little pencil lines I made and I'm just making like little quick flick marks along one side going from where the The two meet and then making an L going out the other side And are you seeing how it looks like it's quilted already how quickly that happens with just a little light bit of color and then I added a little orange circles to each of the centers where those places meet and I thought that came out pretty cool And then I added just a little tiny shadow underneath Each one of those dots to make them look like little buttons You could also put little pearl pen on there or little glossy accents or something and then I decided to add a little darker trim to my my little bedspread and Then I had to figure out how to make the inside of the card because it wasn't looking like it was underneath a bed quite yet So I laid my card front down so I could figure out where I wanted to start coloring on the inside Because this whole bottom section will be colored as if it's the underside of the bed So I'm going to use some really dark colors right at the top because that's really far underneath of the bed And then move down to some greens So it'll look like you know, maybe green carpet underneath of his feet and Stretch that color down and I'm just throwing color on there I'm not going to be real concerned about making it look beautiful. Like I said, this is a loosely colored image So I wanted the the background to just be a loose suggestion of being underneath of the bed So then I added I was getting too much in the dim colors so I added a G99 which is a little bit brighter and You know, it's kind of making the carpet that way I was thinking that would be the shadows those dim colors would be the shadows underneath of the bed And then I decided to just carry some of that green color Above because then that would lighten those other colors brighten them a little bit So it looks like the carpet is just continuing underneath of the bed and Then here's how the card comes together. That's the front of it So when they open it they can play with the little feet But then they can also lift that up and they've got the little Monster in there and his feet bounce both when it's on the outside of the card and and the card front is closed down And then it bounces nicely as well, of course on the inside of the card And I'm just so thrilled with how this one came out I think it's adorable and there's so many things you could use action wobbles for so many different stamps That would do this, but there's a couple of them by art impressions I'll link you to a few of my favorites in the Blog post associated with this post with this video so that you can check them out if you want to see other ones That are perfect for this technique Alrighty, so if you click on the sandy unlock comm in the upper right that will take you to my blog post There's also links in the description to get there so that you can see all of the other information That I always include on my blog posts when I do videos. Alright. Thanks you guys. I'll talk to you later. Bye. Bye


So if you're asking yourself a question at home, I need a laptop that is under $1,000 that is still really good. Well, I've got that laptop for you. I'm talking about the brand new Asus ZenBook 14 OLED. This is a beautiful looking laptop. That display looks gorgeous. Across the spiderverse, well, people look fantastic. And yes, I'll have a link for you guys in the description of this video. But this laptop really sets the bar for under $1,000. Now, if you're joining us for the very first time, go ahead and smash that subscribe button, notification icon, so you can watch more videos like this. So as I open up this ZenBook 14 OLED, the first thing you notice is that, yes, it does open up to 180 degrees. You can see it. I can open this way, which is why you can see the laptop flat on the display. It has a couple of unique features. First thing, that is a 14-inch OLED display, 100% DCI-P3, yes, for what you have here. And this bad boy only weighs 3.6 pounds. It is a super light laptop to use. And it's something that I think a lot of people will appreciate. But I'll leave it here in this hinge format. You've got to keep what that feels really good. Very great key travel. I like the way it feels while typing on this keyboard. You can feel it here. And also just the nice clicking nature of it. It's not super loud, but it's just, it's good enough. Very comfortable travel control. On the top row of this keyboard, though you do have a bunch of function keys, which are great. Yes, your standard volume, screen brightness, of course, keyboard brightness and that kind of stuff. But you also have quick access to your ASUS app, which gives you a lot of functionality in there. You've got, of course, the power button and has a fingerprint sensor. You can also block off your camera here with a camera shield cover. And as I click that ASUS app, that brings up, of course, the ZenBook app right here. And this app does a whole lot for you as you take a look at it. What I like about it is that also this device has a touch screen so I can navigate through. And in here, I can see a couple of things like my battery care, my fan performance, AI noise cancellation, especially when you're using the camera for voice controls, OLED screen care, 100% flicker. So I can go into customization and you can see it here. We've got a general tab. You can see the battery care, file profile, a fan profile, AI noise cancellation, performance. All that stuff is built into it, which is pretty nice. Now, the other thing about this laptop is the plethora of ports you get with it. This is not a laptop that just only has a lovely display and also a great price point, but also the port. So we take a look at it here on the right-hand side. We have a multiple ports here. We have starting off a microSD card slot. We do have two USB 3.2 Type-C four ports that support DisplayPort 1.4, headphone jack, and a HDMI 2.0 port. This is more ports than most laptops will give you now. And we flip over to the other side. We have a USB 3.2 USB-A port here. Now, there are vents across the device all around front as well as also the back, which you can see here giving you a lot of good cooling around the device. So now you're asking what kind of performance or what do I get from this? Now, this is powered by the brand new Ryzen 7000 series processor. And what I have here is the Ryzen 57530U. Now, this comes with 8 gigabytes of RAM as well as 256 gigabytes of storage. But as I mentioned, if you want more performance, go with the Ryzen 77730U. That comes with 16 gigabytes of RAM and 512 gigabytes of storage. Now, the price point for both, whether it's the Ryzen 5 or the Ryzen 7, is Ryzen 5 starts at $699. The 7, of course, is $869. So well under $1,000, and you're getting some really good performance. So what are you getting with that? First of all, let's talk about gaming, which I do like to do a lot. You're not going to get a lot of high-end gaming, but you'll be able to play games like Overwatch 2 well into 60 frames per second on low settings. So this is the games you're looking at, at least with the Ryzen 5, which is what I have here. And also, you can edit your videos on this laptop quite effectively. And in terms of battery life, you're looking at roughly about 11 to 12 hours of battery life, at least in my use case scenario, which is really good and solid with this device. It does come with a 65-watt charger, and will charge up to 60% in 30 minutes. So you're getting some great performance there. Now, what about audio speakers? How well do they sound? Well, let's take a listen to a video on here, and then we'll take a look at the webcam. All right, I'm going to give you two recordings. This is without any of the AI optimization with the microphone, but you see how the camera looks like on the webcam, 1080p recording. Now I'm going to switch over to the AI optimization with omnidirectional mic. And now we have the omnidirectional microphone. It's a bit better, but this is capturing the audio all around, but still blocking out the noise that you heard earlier. And now let's try the unidirectional mic. This is the unidirectional mic, so it's capturing directly, basically facing me. You can hear some cutouts there, trying to block out the rest of the noise, but hopefully this gives you an idea of what those AI controls can actually do when using the webcam and microphone of the Asus ZenBook 14 OLED. All right, so the microphone is decent on there. The webcam also is decent, nothing too crazy. But again, think about the whole package here and what you're getting with this. You know, you're getting a laptop that you can use. It's really good battery life, a lot of ports, and also really great functionality, all for just under $1,000, be it $699 or $869. I think this is a very good buy, and I think if someone's looking for a budget laptop, the Asus ZenBook 14 OLED is a way to go. An OLED display, usually with laptops like this, you're getting a full HD display that doesn't have a really good resolution, not a good colors, and you can see how well it looks here. I'm just gonna just brighten that up for you so you guys can see how bright that is. Really lovely image, absolutely love it. 500 nits HDR. Anyway, that's pretty much it. So let me know what you think about this laptop. Do you think this is something you would pick up? If you will, or you want to, use the link down below.

So let's jump right into it. So Mir, there's so much we can talk about. We can go on for hours, of course, talking about truly spirit-led business. And I am certainly a student, very much of a student, in that so much to learn. But you have been studying and experimenting and leading in this area for a couple of years now, too, and really probably all your life you've been thinking about. So you have a business called Business from the Heart. And in fact, I think your website is businessfromtheheart.com. So share from the heart with us. What does it mean to you to do business from the heart? I guess, firstly, it's business's spiritual practice. So every time I go out into the world and I experience resistance or I experience fear or I experience part of me that wants to believe that I'm not good enough to really be seen, I get to hold myself more gently and understand what is love and what is compassion toward myself. And the more I cultivate that within myself, the more love I have to share in the world, the more love comes out of the work that I do. So it's very much about understanding that it's not separate. When we run a business, it's not like where I'm going to an ashram to cultivate our connection with source or with God. We're actually going, I'm going to use my interaction with the world to understand what is love and what is universal energies. It's also very much about authenticity. So any time we feel that we need to change who we are or we feel that we're having to play a game or become someone we're not in order to make money doing what we love, we're not really being authentic. So it asks us to meet that place within us that wants to believe that particularly for my people, heart-based people, yoga teachers and healers is primarily who I work with. You know, the world doesn't inherently value us. We have to cultivate that with ourselves. You know, there's a sense of, well, you can't see it. It's not tangible. Therefore it's less valuable.  Honoring intuition is also a very big part of it. So what would it be to run a business and make your decisions in your business based on intuition rather than an intellectual understanding? That's all good, we need that. But what if it wasn't the full picture? There was always a place to perhaps make an intuitive choice first and foremost and then see what flows from there. It's about community. This is part of my love and passion for TLC. The more we learn how to show up and be vulnerable with each other and be real, the more we deepen one person by one person with relationship in our local community or in anything we're engaging in online, the more support is here for us, depth of connection and being willing to keep showing up and giving and learning step-by-step through politics and groups and different things that occur. Evaluating community, being empowered by technology is a really big part of business from the heart as well. We don't need to become geeks, but we do need to know enough to ask the right questions. We do need to know enough to use whatever systems and processes we're using authentically, particularly with the world of internet marketing. There's a lot of shady things out there that we're likely to fall into if we don't know enough to go, is this what my heart really wants here? It's also about a sense of what is enoughness and what is it to cultivate sustainability on this planet from an embodied sense, from a place of me in my life? What do I really need? You know, I'm not out there teaching my yoga teachers and healers how to make six figures. I'm not there yet. I may never be there and I actually don't really care that much. I'm out there teaching them how to make enough, just enough doing what you love. And then, I guess lastly, it's very much about consciously developing a sense of sacredness with everything that we do in our business before we pick up the telephone, before we engage in any conversation online, connecting with love within our own bodies, within our own hearts, and then moving forward. Not skipping over that part, even though it may not seem that much comes from that directly, Yeah, that's business from the heart, I'm not sure. That is beautiful. Oh, wow. I want to also just invite those of you who are here with us live. If you have any questions for Mirror, please share it in our event page. It can be questions about doing business from the heart. It can be about questions about her own journey. It can also be questions about what's coming up for her. Mirror, do you want to share with us briefly, actually, what is coming up for you in 2014? Yes, I have in my own quest for true livelihood. I've made a very big decision to leave my life, to let go of all my physical belongings, to go and be in service to something much, much bigger than myself. So I'm going to the Philippines to help out a tiny grassroots organization called Permaculture Aid Yolanda. And we're going to rebuild villages based around permaculture principles and sustainability on this planet. And, yeah. That's amazing. Yeah, yeah, me too. It's, you know, I think, from a transparent viewpoint, you know, I'm very much into giving the real story of what's happening. I love my work. I love being able to support people in authentic business and spiritual marketing. And what's been happening for me is that I've lost focus a little bit, so loving the face-to-face client work, loving the group work that I do, but the day-to-day work of being the doing-ness of business, because so much that's required is not actually the face-to-face stuff, so much as the background stuff, the emailing stuff, the system stuff, the stuff that just has to be done. And that's become my bigger experience. So part of this trip is about me connecting back the source and getting perspective and ease back. So I really can recommit from a deeply authentic place. And I think we all need to do that every now and then. We need a bit of a shake-up if we've lost perspective. We need to maybe just let go of our hopes and dreams for a little while and see what's really here now.  We can start something really extraordinary and then find out six months later or a year later. Actually, I don't want that at all. And, you know, business from the heart, true livelihood is how do we respond to that? Do we keep on holding, you know, do we hold on through the tips of our fingertips and just go, no, I don't wanna lose this? Or are we able to give it to God? Are we able to surrender it and ask, well, will you tell me what's next? I don't know, you tell me. So that's a big part of this trip for me personally. Yeah, getting a sense of community and love in action, seeing my hands make a difference in the world. Wow, thank you. So a couple of questions already from those who are with us live, Tomar asked a couple of questions. Actually, I'm not sure if Tomar's questions there were the notes she was taking. It seemed like more like the notes she was taking actually, which included the question of how do we make enough doing what we love. So that's a possible question, but Paul also asked a question, which is that he said, please tell us a little bit about how you arrived at this approach of valuing intuition and heart, so especially in business, of course. Sort of before, during, and after, after is still happening. But yeah, so tell us how this happened. Was there a particular experience or were there particular heroes? So yeah. I had to fail big time. I, about seven years ago, I started my own business and barely heads on the Gold Coast of Australia, invested a lot of money in a clinic. I was an acupuncturist and a body worker and I'd been in the natural health industry for many years and I put everything I had into this business that I was so deeply passionate about.  I was going to transform the face of addiction medicine on the planet because if any of you know, maybe you've had personal experience or with family members, addiction medicine as it stands has about a 95% value rate. It's pretty dismal. So I was going to bring all of my gifts and all of my experience to really make a difference and change the system, basically. Through that journey of the extraordinary self-education that you're kind of dumped in when anyone ever says, okay, I'm gonna run a business. I learned a huge amount of what I didn't know. Could fill an ocean, what I didn't know. Still could fill an ocean, what I don't know. Probably a degree in internet marketing and just so many seminars and so many books and so many coaching programs and so much investment in, okay, I'm an intelligent human. I've realized I don't know this stuff because what I'm doing isn't really working or it's working really well sometimes. And then it's like not working at all the next time. And I'd watch myself go from these peaks of elation when I had a really good week and I'd be like, wow, I met $1,000 this week. Oh my God, wow. Two really dark places of depression and despair when I would change nothing but make maybe $50. And I've been watching that cycle for quite a while. I'd also been on my mad journey of self-education being networking a lot because I kind of figured, hey, I'm good with people. I know how to talk to people and how to meet them. And there's a lot of successful people out there and maybe I can learn something by getting out there and saying hi, getting to know my local community. So I was doing all these things, so many things. At one point I was working maybe about a 70 hour a week and had gotten so obsessed with my business and with my role in it that I was really quite empty. So I was living on sugar and caffeine basically and not looking after myself, not looking after my body at all, not neglecting my relationship big time and just basically thinking about my business all the time, waking up worrying about it, waking up in a panic. That had probably been going on for about a year quite a while I was in that space. Like we can't wake up before we wake up. So quite a year of let's say soul searching agony of me trying to figure out how come all of my energy and all of my attention and all of my love and all of my work is not getting me the results that all of these experts are promising me because I was diligently applying every single thing I learned. And I went to see a healer. I'd had a few little mini wake up calls and I went to see a healer and went specifically about my business, you know, what is it? I can't see this, what's going on here? I've been trying everything I can think of and nothing's working or it's working sometimes and it's not working at all. And I'm just, I just believe I'm a failure. I believe I'm a really unworthy because all of my intelligence is not able to create what I want to create in the world. And we had a few sessions and we eventually got around to the topic of my business and she sort of said to me, you know, okay, are you ready to hear this? And I said, yes, give it to me. And she looked at me as beautiful space of stillness and said, you're not ready. You will never be ready. You could keep working 80 hour weeks and that still will not get you the result you want. You're not ready. None of your work is going to make a difference. My heart broke and I went into, I guess, I guess a grieving process is the closest I can describe for about four months. I was just kind of in this cloud of fog, of everything in my life that I'd worked so hard for was no longer a value to me. And I was very much in this space of I am a failure. I am inadequate to the task of being able to survive on this planet as a human. I actually don't have the tools. So I was in that space for quite a while and then my husband took me to an ashram for a couple of weeks and that was the first space and time away I'd had in maybe about four years. And eventually I found a place where I could laugh.  And from there, little things started to shift. It took me about two years from that point before I could go out in business again on my own but I had some lightness and I guess a spiritual insight into what is surrender and how we're all just playing our role. Maybe you don't have a choice at all about the success or the outcomes of our actions. Maybe this is all just service and it's up to spirit to move through us as spirit will. It's not personal, I guess was my insight. It's not about my own ability. There's something much bigger and much more beautiful happening and moving through every one of us. Yes, so it was a lot of that. Paul, it was a very long answer to your question but through that process of grieving and after that point where I could laugh at myself and then the two years slowly regaining the confidence to get out there on my own again, I realized all the places I'd compromised my heart. I realized all the places I had played a game. All the times I'd been to a networking meeting and put on a collared shirt and lipstick. That's not me, you know, but I thought I had to dress a certain way in order to be successful. And it turns out that's not actually true. So it was a big unfolding over quite a long period of time. Noticing the game and how I've never wanted to play a game in my life. I haven't believed that it was possible to make money and not play a game. I haven't believed. I didn't believe in true livelihood. I thought surely it's all based around manipulation and an agenda, surely that's the truth. But my journey showed me that there's always, always another loving, more honest way of being with those energies as they move through us. Beautiful, thank you. So Paul actually came up with a follow up question. And this is certainly a question that could have an ongoing conversation, but just any thoughts you wanna share, which is how did you support yourself financially during the transition period? Or maybe another way if we can phrase it is for someone who is going through the transition to their true livelihood, which I believe all of us are probably, what is your advice for us? It comes down to community once again. I think I generally say that I put on my pajama pants and went to work. I contacted two yoga teachers that I knew and offered my services to them. I said, hey, you know, I've amassed all of these skills. I can create a website for you. I can create a marketing program for you. I can write your copy for you. I can create flyers and business cards and give you some groundings with which to share your classes and your teachings authentically. I can do that for you. And here's what it's going to cost each week. And are you interested? And they both said yes. So both of these people had been in my life for quite a while. They'd seen my journey. They'd watched the things that I was producing over the years. And there was a relationship there that they valued, that we both valued. There was a mutual respect and they needed it. So there was a combination of right timing. They needed my services. They knew they didn't have them themselves and were at that point of going, oh, I know I need to get a website and I know I need to do all this stuff but I don't know where to begin. And I just came along at the perfect time and said, hey, I can do this for you. So that was my journey. And I guess for me there, I remember having a little conversation with George about it too, this whole concept of acres and diamonds in our backyard, that our local community, the people in our lives have, we all have together more than enough right now to support each other in livelihood and in love. Or in other ways that may not necessarily be financial. So we all have that. And believing in that and valuing that is the thing that has helped me enormously through that transition period to get to the point where I could rebuild enough to go, oh, I think I'm ready to start another business. I'm so blessed. Thank you, thank you for that answer. So I have one more question for you and then I'll invite any other of the participants to chime in with their question in the chat. Maybe we'll do one more after that. But one of my questions I always love to ask people is what is one practice that you would, that has benefited you, that you would recommend to other people? And it doesn't have to be something totally unique but something that's really benefited you. What's one practice that we could do or start to do this week that would help us transition into that true livelihood? And that practice could be something physical, it could be something mental, something emotional, something spiritual. I actually have two. I went really deep with this question and I went into what is my practice? What is it that allows me as a hippie, as someone who struggles with communicating with the mainstream world since probably the moment I popped out? The first one is one of my teachers is a woman named Byron Katie. So I practice the work of Byron Katie on a regular basis. Any time I notice a belief that's stressful or that creates darkness and that pulls my energy down, I give myself space to actually look at it. It's a living meditation and a way of questioning what we think is true. So the ones that my clients come up with most regularly are things like marketing is sleazy, marketing is manipulative, business is too hard for me. I don't know enough, there's a big one. I'm a fraud is another really big one. So these are all energetics that anyone who's conscious in this world of wanting to improve, wanting to open their heart is probably gonna come across really consistently when we go out there and say, yes, I wanna run a business. So the work of Byron Katie is one and the other practice is, I'm just gonna call it an embodiment practice of some kind. So the people I work with mostly, myself included, we're pretty woo-woo, we're pretty kind of fifth dimensional kind of, you know, deeply connected with Lemuria and Atlantis and we're really in spirit and have a deep love of spirit and have spent many years deepening our knowledge of what is the spiritual plane of existence? What is the angelic realms and how do we create more peace and more love? It's our primary motivation. So what that means is that for many heart-based people, we're kind of really highly developed from about here upwards. We're kind of, you know, pretty connected. Our energy centers are open. We can be in prolonged states of peace and bliss quite easily through our own spiritual practice and learnings. What's not so deeply developed in heart-based people is root chakra stuff, which is survival, which is business, which is money, which is sex. So any practice that allows us to enter into our body more fully to understand the realities of what it is to have a body to interact with other bodies, to ground onto this planet, to value the fact that we are in a human form rather than our connection with spirit. We've kind of valued spirit more than we have the physical body and when we start to do an embodiment practice of some kind, whether it's a form of yoga or chigong or a static dance, something that gets us out of our minds and gets us actually feeling what's happening on a cellular level is gonna cultivate that and have really profound effects that are sometimes immediate in relation to what choices are available to us. What can we really see about what really needs to happen in this circumstance, in this situation? So practical, grounded development of that through a physical practice. Yeah, they're my two practices that are life-changing. Wow, I love that. Thank you so much. It's very clear and very inspirational. Actually, I'm looking at the chat, the events page. Tomar, in fact, had asked a question before you started talking about this practice. She said, you seem to be mirror, you seem to be always very grounded and centered. How do you balance personal care, spiritual practice and working on business and synchronicitously? You talked about this. But as a final comment, do you have anything else you'd like to share? Whether it is one of the questions that we've had or anything else that you wanna have as part of this video. Wow. So, probably the best piece of advice that I ever was open to receive in divine timing came through a few years ago from, you know, I've been hearing this for years, feel the fear and do it anyway, you know? And kind of not really understanding what that was. It dropped in for me on a very deep level at some point. I started to really understand how much pressure I put on myself as a conscious being to not feel afraid. How much energy I was investing in trying to fix myself and heal myself and change myself because I thought I had to to create more abundance and more love and true livelihood. And it turns out again, that's not actually true. And so many, so much of the time, the thing I see the most in my clients and certainly within myself as we go through this path of business and spiritual practices, the only thing that's really changing is our ability to be with pain and discomfort is expanding. We're feeling afraid, but not letting it stop us from taking action. Where we're going, thank you, fear.  I'm still gonna approach this person even though every part of my being is going, whoa, no, what if they say no? What if I fail? No! To not look so much to resolve that fear anymore. There once was a time for all of my clients and myself included where we had to use a ton of different spiritual practices and affirmations and so many different processes to resolve past fear and past trauma and all that stuff. And that's all valid and this is different now. This asks something different. We don't have to fix ourselves anymore. We are enough. And it's just about can we feel it and still take action and move. Thank you, thank you so much, Mira. Wow, this has been just a beautiful conversation. I think it's one that I'm gonna revisit. I hope you all who are watching this will as well. I wanna acknowledge, oh and actually now I actually see Artie's comments. There were one of the confusing things about Hangouts on there is there's actually multiple places to comment, especially since we're using Google Plus Events page too and that's in our TLC private group. So it's just here and there. But Artie, we see you. Thank you for your comments. Thank you Tomar and Paul and Sharon Agati for also commenting actively there and there might be other folks in the YouTube video that I'm not seeing but thank you all for your presence. And most of all, thank you, Mira, for making yourself available to us in such a uplifting, uplifting, funny, uplifting but also grounded way. That's what it's about. Honored to be here. Thank you George and thank you everyone. I'm looking forward to reading the comments and responding. Awesome, so if people wanna connect with you, what's the best way of doing that? Well, in TLC and also in businessfromtheheart.com. And Facebook, I'm on Facebook a fair bit, doing a little bit there and sharing about conscious business and love in action and I'm sharing a lot of pictures and stuff from my travels when I leave for the Philippines and yeah, beautiful to stay connected on Facebook. That's probably the easiest way. Yeah, for those looking for Mira on Facebook, her name is spelled M-I-R-R-O-R, as in looking in the mirror, living, L-I-V-I-N-G is her last name, as in we are living. So Mira living, look her up on Facebook, on Google Plus, her first name on Google Plus is actually M-I-R-A, because Google Plus had a thing about having Mira as a first name and I don't know why they did that. But on Facebook, Mira living, on the web, you could just go to businessfromtheheart.com and again, thank you Mira. Thank you so much, have a beautiful rest of your day. Thank you. Bye bye. Bye bye.
