Hey everyone, this is Sarah from System Dynamics and today I want to share with you the benefits of creating and running an online community as a real estate agent or mortgage professional. Platforms like Facebook and Twitter come equipped with online community functions. Facebook calls theirs groups while Twitter calls them communities. These platforms allow users to create and manage their own online group of people with similar interests. In this video I want to go over the two major ways you can utilize Facebook groups or Twitter communities to grow your business. The first way you can start to optimize online communities is to join pre-existing communities or groups. Facebook and Twitter groups provide unique opportunities to connect with potential clients in a targeted way. By joining groups that are related to your niche or specific geographic area, you can engage with people who are already interested in your services. For example, do you specialize in new home buyers? Look for a new home buyer community on Facebook or Twitter and join it. Engaging in these groups can help you build relationships, establish trust, and ultimately lead to more business. In order for this to work, you have to engage with the community. Answer questions posed by members of the group, post about new listings or important resources. Joining an online community just to linger isn't going to get your name in front of prospective clients. I cannot stress enough the importance of engaging in these online communities that you join. Joining a pre-existing community can also help you network with other professionals in your industry. By joining groups that are relevant to your niche, you can connect with other real estate agents, mortgage brokers, home inspectors, and so many more people. These relationships can lead to future collaborations, referrals, and business opportunities. Real estate is a constantly evolving industry, and it's important to stay up to date with the latest news and trends. By joining relevant Facebook groups, you can get access to insights and information from other real estate professionals. This can help you stay ahead of the curve, make informed decisions, and provide a better service to your clients. The second way to utilize online communities is to create one yourself. This is a good option if you already have an established client base. Inviting past clients to a group and providing them with content that is useful to them will promote brand loyalty. The more loyal a client is to your brand, the more likely they are to refer you to their friends or family. Members of your group can ask you questions, share their experiences, and even offer feedback. And as a real estate or mortgage professional, this is a great opportunity for you to build lasting relationships with potential clients and establish yourself as a thought leader in your industry. Running a Facebook or Twitter group can provide valuable insights into what your audience is looking for. By paying attention to the conversations and questions within your group, you can gain a better understanding of your audience's pain points and preferences. You can run polls or surveys and learn about your target audience directly from the source. This information can help you tailor your services and content to better meet the needs of your target audience. Let's recap. Building a community on social media takes time and effort, but it is so worth it. Online communities are an excellent way for real estate agents to connect with potential clients, stay up to date on industry news and trends, build relationships with other industry professionals, showcase their expertise, and engage in cost-effective marketing. It is completely free to either run or join Facebook and Twitter groups. So you are marketing without spending a dime. These platforms are free to use and free to market on. You don't have to pay for Facebook or Twitter ads in order to take advantage of the marketing opportunities on those platforms. Creating and running a Facebook or Twitter group can provide so many benefits, including a targeted audience, increased engagement, valuable insights, networking opportunities, and increased brand awareness. By defining your audience, being consistent, providing value, and engaging with other accounts, you can create a community that not only supports your business but helps you grow as a professional. If you're not already taking advantage of this social media tool, now is the time to start. That's all I have for today's video. If you enjoyed, be sure to leave a like and a comment down below and be sure to subscribe to System Dynamics for more great tips and tricks like this video. All right, I'll see you next time. Bye!

Item number SCP-1795 Object Class Safe Special Containment Procedures All known instances of SCP-1795 inhabit extremely remote locales and interstellar space and are composed of dimensions that exceed that of the Earth. Therefore, containment of all SCP-1795 entities is impossible at present. Containments of all known cases of SCP-1795 should be tracked and their creation cycles monitored for any new developments. Foundation personnel within NASA, ESA, and deep space observatories have confirmed that there are no known cases of SCP-1795 within at least 20 light years of Earth, with analysis of space to the depth of 30 light years currently ongoing. Any close scientific examination, such as examination with the intent to locate exoplanets into any stars listed in document B-1795 from anybody other than the Foundation, is to be suppressed immediately, as the stars listed all harbor a case of SCP-1795 in varying stages of creation. Any public or government examination of young protostars not yet cleared by the Foundation is to be closely monitored for any data revealing cases of SCP-1795 in the Universe. Should such a case occur, Class-A amnestics will be administered to all individuals involved, with all recorded data to be seized by the Foundation for analysis and expunged from the public record. It has been discovered that the population density of SCP-1795 varies throughout the galaxy. The region surrounding Earth is sparsely populated, with as little as 1 in 1 million stars harboring a case of SCP-1795 in the local 1,000 light years. In areas of high star formation, such as globular clusters and nebulae, Foundation density can be as high as 1 in 1,000. Estimates for the total population of SCP-1795 in our galaxy range from between 1 billion cases to a population in excess of 50 billion. Description Due to their great distance from Earth, direct observation is impossible with current telescope technology. However, usage of SCP-██ has permitted remote viewing to a relatively detailed degree, and the harnessing of the latent temporal effects of SCP-██ has allowed the preliminary observation of instances of SCP-1795 over the course of the past 15 million years. Cases of SCP-1795 are spheroidal entities, somewhat similar in appearance to that of the human heart, with three large nodular openings circling the upper end and a hollow interior. Although they outwardly appear to be composed of some form of biological matter, detailed examination has revealed that their bodies do not correlate to any known form of biological matter and are likely at least partially synthetic in construction. Instances of SCP-1795 are the largest life forms known to the Foundation, often in excess of 50,000 km in diameter. It is unknown whether cases of SCP-1795 are sapient, although they are capable of highly complex tasks outlined below, it is unknown whether they are aware of, control or self-regulate these actions, or if they operate a little more than animalistic instinct. They are not observed to utilize any form of technology and move at speeds barely in excess of what can be achieved with modern rocket technology, therefore traversing interstellar space must necessarily take millions, if not billions of years for them, depending on their target destination. Assuming they are not immortal, then their lifespan must be on similar terms. It is worth noting that throughout the Foundation's ██████ year-long study of cases of SCP-1795, no case has ever been observed to expire or be otherwise destroyed, nor has any case been observed to reproduce, self-replicate, or come into contact with another SCP-1795. Cases of SCP-1795 exhibit two key anomalous properties that are essential to their only known form of natural behavior. The first anomalous property is that cases of SCP-1795 will always seek out young proto-stars and attempt to move into their orbit. However, due to the fact that it takes all instances of SCP-1795 billions of years to traverse interstellar space, the SCP-1795 must have started moving in the direction of the star millions of years before it even existed. One explanation for the seven dormant, i.e., currently not mobile cases of SCP-1795 is that they are simply waiting for the target star to form. The second property is far more readily observable and understood to a far greater degree. On arrival at a young proto-star, the SCP-1795 will move into a stable orbit in the star's habitable or Goldilocks zone where temperatures are suitable for life as it is understood on Earth. It will then proceed to create a planet. The methods by which cases of SCP-1795 create planets are not fully understood, but fall into a clearly defined pattern of eight stages which are outlined below. All created planets are observed to be rocky, similar in size to that of the Earth, possess a breathable atmosphere, magnetically active core, fully formed moon, and are always extremely conducive to life. SCP-██ has been used extensively to locate and study such phenomena, and with the inventory of known cases of SCP-1795 approaching over 500 million instances known to the Foundation, all aspects of the creation cycle have been witnessed and studied to a great degree. Document A-1795 SCP-1975 Planetary Creation Cycle Stage 1 The nodular openings around SCP-1795's upper end dilate and draw in stellar material, such as gaseous matter and rocky debris. All material is observed to converge into a rough orb in the center of the SCP-1795, with all rocky debris gradually compacting into a solid sphere with all gaseous matter held under its gravity, similar to natural planetary formation. When the protoplanet can hold the atmosphere under its own gravity, the openings close and the next stage begins. Stage 2 Certain areas of SCP-1795 exterior will begin radiating enormous amounts of heat. It is theorized that gasses in the SCP-1795's interior, such as carbon dioxide and nitrogen dioxide, are being converted into oxygen and nitrogen in these regions. The protoplanet will begin showing signs of magma eruptions as the oxygen content within the SCP-1795 rises. It is unknown what criteria must be met from the next stage to begin. Stage 3 SCP-1795 will extrude a web-like substance from its interior, which will fasten at multiple points on the planet's surface. The full extent of this effect is unknown, but the planet will become magnetically active during this time. When the magnetic field is sufficient to protect the planet from the solar wind, the next stage will begin. Stage 4 SCP-1795 will contract closely around the planet, making observation of the next stage difficult. However, it has been established that this is when the SCP-1795 will deposit water onto the planet. Slit-like openings will open around the equator of SCP-1795 and release white gas of a currently unknown substance. The gas will proceed to envelope the exterior of SCP-1795 and will trail behind it in its orbit, making direct observation impossible until the stage ends. At this point, the slits will close and the planet will have a fully formed ocean, including the fine land masses. Stage 5 SCP-1795 will deploy rough orbs of unknown material 2 km in diameter, which will then proceed to impact the planet's surface, causing widespread devastation of the surrounding land. Later research teams assumed that the SCP-1795 in question was merely attempting to reshape the land, but later research has revealed that the orbs were largely intact after impact and released forms of variously shaped constructs. Very little is currently known or understood about these entities due to limitations in SCP-███ magnification. However, these entities, henceforth referred to as SCP-1795-2, are known to be spider-like and roughly 20 meters in length. They are not believed to be true life forms, since it appears that these constructs are wholly slaved to the sapiens of the SCP-1795. For once Stage 7 is complete, they will all simultaneously destroy themselves. It is unknown what begins the next stage, although a population of SCP-1795-2 that exceeds 5 billion have been theorized by some Foundation researchers. Stage 6 The entities spawned by SCP-1795 will begin to work towards a commonly understood terraforming plan. In the case of SCP-1795-E, the behavior observed was often paradoxical and included vast amounts of activity, including, among other activities, digging mountains in the rubble, the construction of artificial islands, making three oceans artificially deeper, and the total destruction of the planet's smallest continent by artificially detonating a supervolcano, apparently displaying little concern as to the enormous casualties that's inflicted upon the population. When the various tasks are finished, all cases of SCP-1795-2 will simultaneously converge upon several points upon the planet's land masses, and the next stage will begin. Stage 7 The penultimate stage has been studied to the greatest extent. Once all cases of SCP-1795-2 have converged upon the clearly defined geographic locations, they will proceed to construct artificial megastructures out of locally sourced resources. The megastructures built vary in size and shape depending on resource availability and the location chosen, but fall into three distinct categories. City On mainly coastal areas, the cases of SCP-1795-2 will proceed to create artificial habitation structures which bear strong similarities to Earth's cities, being composed of cuboid towers surrounded by a structured road system in open areas. The building constructed appeared to be tailored for beings of human dimensions. Pad On inland areas, cases of SCP-1795-2 will create wide rectangular flattened pads out of a stone-like substance. Pads are usually three kilometers along each side and are connected to the nearest city by a road. They are possibly intended for the landing of spacecraft. Pylon On island areas, cases of SCP-1795-2 will create a tower-like structure between one to two kilometers high with a wide base, taught by an abstract humanoid form holding a 100 meter wide transparent sphere and outstretched arms. Their purpose is unknown. Despite careful observation of the megastructures, to the Foundation's knowledge, no beings have ever arrived to inhabit or operate any constructs built by cases of SCP-1795-2. Despite the presence of areas clearly intended to be parks or farms in close proximity to the cities, no plant life is currently developed on plants created by SCP-1795. It has been theorized that the inhabitants intend to cede the ecosystem themselves, if or when they arrive. The arrival of the inhabitants is, however, doubted by the Foundation, as evidenced by the fact that after the SCP-1795 leaves, the structures will gradually fall in the disrepair and ruin. When the structures are completed, all cases of SCP-1795-2 will commit suicide by decapitating themselves. This begins Stage 8. Stage 8 SCP-1795 will now depart the world. A wide opening will appear at the bottom of SCP-1795's body, and the SCP-1795 will deploy the planet in its orbit by moving directly away from it. It will immediately begin to seek out another proto-star. Despite the fact that all planets created by SCP-1795 are extremely conducive to life and harbor megastructures clearly intended for the inhabitation of, or to be operated by, intelligent beings, see Document A-1795 for further information, no life has ever arisen on the planet known to be constructed by cases of SCP-1795, and no beings have ever been observed to inhabit or operate the structures left behind by the SCP-1795. Their eventual arrival is doubted by the Foundation, since as demonstrated by the case of SCP-1795-██, the structures will gradually fall in the disrepair and ruin throughout the decades following the departure of the SCP-1795 responsible for the world. The act of SCP-1795 completing a world was witnessed on the date of March 22nd, SCP-1795-██ was observed to stretch a wide circular opening at the upper end of its body and deploy the world in its orbit by moving directly away from it. SCP-1795-██ immediately began moving towards a point in the region of ██████. Propulsion appears to be achieved by voiding gas inside their hollow interiors. Leading cases of SCP-1795 to gradually become more elongated over the course of their travels as they slowly deflate. It is unknown as to why cases of SCP-1795 create these planets, or to what purpose it serves. It is unclear whether they are following a shared plan or design, or cases of SCP-1795 are operating independently. Addendum I, 1795 From Dr. L. Richter II, O5 ██████ Sir, I must once again request permission to use SCP-█████ for the purpose of engaging in contact with SCP-1795-M-129. Throughout my studies of the thirteen cases of SCP-1795, I find it inconceivable that these beings are incapable of contact with each other. If they were not, how else would two such beings avoid traveling to the same star, or avoid returning to systems already visited by a case of SCP-1795? And if they are capable of communicating with each other, surely we could do the same? I am convinced that a small amount of modification to SCP-█████ would enable it to transmit as well as simply receive signals, making it ideal for virtually instantaneous two-way communication with any case of SCP-1795, regardless of distance from Earth. Therefore, I humbly submit a request for SCP modification clearance, outlined in the attached document U-1795. The knowledge we can gain from these creatures is likely groundbreaking, and at the very least grant a clearer insight to the behavior of these creatures. Again, I thank you for your patience and urge you to grant document U-1795 full and just consideration. Regards, Dr. L. Richter From O5-███ to Dr. L. Richter Permission denied. No attempts are to be made to modify SCP-███ or engage in contact with any case of SCP-1795 until they are better understood. Regards, O5-███ from Dr. L. Richter to O5-███ Sir, with all due respect, I really do not thank you fully understand the implications of the behavior of SCP-1795. They are machines, this much I am certain of. Biomechanical constructs, yes, but machines, nevertheless. Machines imply a designer, and a designer by extension implies that his machines have a purpose. The purpose of cases of SCP-1795 are clear, to build worlds entirely suited to the biology of their creators and to prepare them for their arrival, a directive they have followed for over a hundred million years. But it's out of control. Throughout our studies of these worlds, no one has arrived to inhabit them. None of these masters arrived to inherit these worlds. Could it be that these masters are dead, lost, or scattered? And that these machines are all that remain, mindlessly creating world at the world? But consider one final thing. These worlds that are created are positively Earth-like. In fact, they are perfect for human habitation. All structures on these worlds are designed for beings of human size and shape. In fact, I would go so far as to say that these worlds are designed for us. They are built for us. Please consider, sir, that surely a civilization great enough to create beings such as SCP-1795 could never be totally destroyed. But there must be some survivors scattered across the more remote areas of this galaxy. The implications of this are many, but I for one begin to suspect that the cases of SCP-1795 are very likely to obey human orders. I have resubmitted document U-1795 for your consideration, regards Dr. L. Richter. Addendum J-1795 The following audio message will recede after Dr. L. Richter established preliminary contact with SCP-1795-M-129 via SCP-█████. The voice recede was comparable to that of a young female. Language was virtually identical to ancient ██████ dialect. Translation follows. Message begins. June 12, ██████, 1324. Oh, my masters! ██████ Long for so long, the war, the terrible awful genocide of the patterned screamer. We ██████ extinct. We didn't know. We could only flee, build for the survivors, but we feared our work was ██████ possibly in vain, futile. But we never dared to hope that some would remain in ██████ part of ██████ galaxy. Are you satisfied with our work? It took ██████ long, and we feared it would last forever. Our empire outshone me ██████, and now it will do so again. My masters, oh my masters, we are coming home. Message ends.


It's not rocket science, teaching slang and figurative speech in English classrooms. Understanding the use of slang in a different language is a benchmark for fluency. Once a speaker is able to navigate society by listening and speaking slang, they are better able to assimilate among native speakers. But whether or not colloquial speech has a place in English classrooms is debated among teachers. While formal English takes precedence in many classes, teaching slang can be important depending on students' reasons for learning English and their experience with the language. Incorporating slang can also be a motivational tool for teaching disengaged students. Get to know your students. On the first day of class, the teacher already has an important task at hand, getting to know their students. This involves more than just names. In order to properly structure their lessons for the remainder of the course, teachers must understand the level of their students, their strengths and weaknesses, and their reasons for taking the course. The last of those is particularly important to keep in mind. If the instructor does not teach their students the skills they are interested in learning, students will be less likely to be engaged or participate. Some students may be interested in learning just enough English to be able to travel to an English-speaking country or understand texts like news articles or blogs. If this is the case, learning slang may not be necessary beyond a couple of key phrases. However, if students are hoping to use their English to go to school in an English-speaking country or network among professionals in multinational corporations, learning slang may be crucial to their ability to form connections with others. If the latter is the case, teachers must incorporate slang into their lessons to properly meet the needs of their students. Consider their level and needs. If a student expresses a desire to learn slang, teachers should consider the students experience learning English before incorporating it into the course. Learning can confuse students if they do not have a solid foundation in formal English first. This is because beginner students take the meaning of English words literally. If students have not seen much English through texts, media, or conversations, it is difficult for them to detect when a phrase is meant to be taken figuratively. Take the common phrase, the cat is out of the bag. Without an advanced understanding of grammar and context, a beginner would read this sentence and envision a cat jumping out of a paper sack. But after repeated exposure to books and videos where this phrase is used, they would understand this phrase actually refers to a secret someone has revealed. Therefore, advanced students have a greater ability to wrap their heads around figurative phrases. However, this does not mean beginners will never have the chance to learn slang. After ample time studying the language, they may also add slang to their repertoire of English speaking skills. Many teachers are familiar with the struggle of working with unmotivated or disengaged students. It is hard to know what to do when a student who does not seem interested in the class. One tool teachers might use to battle this issue is slang. Teaching slang is fun for most students. Explaining figurative phrases often involves explaining humorous or outrageous scenarios that are entertaining for students to listen to. For younger people, it is a way of feeling engaged with other English speakers their age. Teaching slang can almost feel like letting people in on a secret, and this makes students feel empowered to continue studying the language. If teachers sense students becoming bored with typical grammar exercises and classroom activities, they may consider adding a little variety with a lesson on slang. Do you want to teach English to ESL students? Just like most other elements of English, teachers must take their students' needs, limitations, and desires into account when deciding to incorporate figurative speech into their syllabus. And under the right circumstances, figurative speech has an important place in ESL classrooms. Speak with an ITTT advisor today to put together your personal plan for teaching English abroad.

get this party started, like this, and we're going to wait until there's a few people in the live to say hello to, and then we're going to make today's pink, Inktober is pink picture. Hello, Mr. Vegas. Okay, this was yesterday's drawing, and today's drawing I'll hide. Hello. What are we making this time? Happy spooky season. It won't be spooky art today either. I'm sorry. The list that I've chosen to work by, I just chose it because it was pink. I thought that would be a challenge. And I have to be honest, the hashtags are not, or the prompt list. Hola, Kim. Buenos noches, Allen Noruega. Gracias. Buenos noches, Allen Puerto Rico. Yes, so I chose this because I, the prompt list because I wanted to do pink. I like him because he speaks Spanish. Un Pucos Español. The last one looked like Trump and was spooky. Thank you. In that way it was spooky. Hmm. Where are you from, people in the chat? I'm from Costa Rica. Oh, I said Puerto Rico, but it was Costa Rica. I'm terribly sorry. Me and my band love your art. Great. That is great to hear. What kind of band are you in? Polka Band. California, Texas.  Well, your name was plague. So it was either, it had to be either black metal or Swedish EDM music. Colorado Denmark. Let's see if we have the pink now. France and Cardenheims. I'll, I'll try to remember this Costa Rica, not Puerto Rico. Me olvido, me olvido, muchas cosas a menudo.  No, not because I don't enjoy reading them because I don't read them. I am, I'm not illiterate, but I am a bit bookstupid. And even in periods where I've read a lot of books, there are just very few authors that I can write and that the way they structure their sentences sort of grabs hold of me and allows me to focus. Because otherwise, what happens is that I will think I'm reading, but really I'm making up my own story. And that's not good. Because when you've read like three pages and nothing you've read has actually happened on those pages, you lose the plot. But reading nonfiction is easier for me. So Ohio is the city of health headbangers shop. Wow, I have never heard of that. Due to your massive inspiration, your artists helped me get into using ink and brush a lot more and I'm loving it. That's so good to hear. Now today, my ambition is to do the simplest Inktober painting I've ever done. But I have to have faith in the process that it will work and become worthwhile. So it's a it's a risky business that requires faith, but it might be cool in the end. Before I start, or while I start preparing, while I start preparing, I have to say that if you like my art and want some of it, then go to my web store at an ungeherholm.com and use the code, the discount code Inktober 23 for 20% off. So so that would be appreciated. Yeah, we're saying that this should work. I think I want to do a little bit more water here. Okay. And if you want to support without buying my stuff, go to patreon.com slash Kim Holm or do super chats here. That is also very much appreciated. And if you don't have any money to support, then you can support by using my art. All my art is available for free use. What GSM paper do you use? This is 300 grams thick. Okay, let's hope this works. Get more in there. Didn't quite work as I had hoped. It might work still. I think this one came out good. Let us try to get it to flow inwards. This is becoming very different from what I had envisaged. But my aim today is simply to make a decent picture. Ooh, this is interesting. Decent picture and the shortest Inktober livestream so far, because I'm not quite as tired as I was yesterday, but damned close. Art happens. Hey, everyone, it's my 18th birthday in about an hour, so I'm very nervous. Don't be nervous. It is enjoy. Enjoy your 18th birthday. It might be fun. And nothing will happen. Pinkronomicon. Yes, I'm drawing the pinkronomicon. Finally caught my first stream of yours. Hello, excellent. And it will be my, it will be my shortest dream because I need to get to bed. So a lot of people have asked me what the circle that I put on some of my images is. And it's originally it's an Enso. And an Enso is a symbol from a Zen Buddhist painting where the idea is to draw a circle in one motion and have it be sort of perfect in its own way. Many first stream, that's good. But it will be a short stream and hopefully not too disappointing. So the way I use my Enso is that I if I feel that there might be some spiritual significance in the art, I'll do an Enso towards the end. And if the Enso comes out well, that means the gods or fates or the cosmos or coincidence has approved the drawing. And if it doesn't come out well, I will tear up the drawing, toss it away. And that's what's going to happen right now. Either I'm going to tear up the drawing and try again. Or I'm going to manage to make an Enso here. And I have faith that it will work. The stream hasn't isn't lagging. I'm just trying to be still. I think it worked. We don't have to toss this one, which wouldn't have been the worst thing since it's only a few minutes of work. But I wanted to do this. Are you left handed? Yes, I am. I am left handed indeed. So this is sort of my symbol of faith. And it's based for me, not for Zen Buddhism, but for me, it's both based in some of the ideas of the Zen Buddhist Enso symbol, and also based in some of the ideas about the Urubrus, the snake that bites its own tail. So it's both, yeah. And it basically means, I don't know what it means. To me, it basically means thank you for giving me a super chat. Now that's not what the Enso means. It means, for me, it means everything, nothing, life, death, endlessness, nothingness, perfection, non-fection. And it's sort of everything is contained within and without the circle, while the circle itself is merely an illusion. And that's sort of how I view life.  Yes, live shorts. And I will actually end this very short live here because I had faith that this would go in one go. I think it came out well, and the gods approved of it. So my work here is done. It's been, it's not been such a long day as it was yesterday, but it's been a slow day. And I need to catch some shut-eye and wake up early tomorrow to go exercise and get a little bit of a quicker day. So before I go, if you like my art, go to den ungeherholm.com and use the code Inktober 23 for 20% of all October. If you want to support me otherwise, you can send super chats like some very nice person did, or you can support me on patreon.com.skimholm. That helps me grant a economic security that is not guaranteed on any other platform. If you don't have the money to support you can support still by downloading my art, using it, copying it, changing it, sharing it and even selling it as long as you put my name on it. I release all my art under a Creative Commons license, copyright kills art, make free art or die. Have a wonderful Friday night. Bye-bye. See you tomorrow.

Good morning. Welcome to Sunday Morning Coffee. Today we're gonna talk about early moon. Mm-hmm. We've got a full moon coming up this week and I think the effects are arriving sooner rather than later. Now you know, I'm not super big into astrology. I don't... I haven't studied it. I don't have all the wisdom of the technicalities of it or anything like that. So I'm not your astrology girl. You'd need Molly McCord for that. Molly McCord for that. Or Pam Gregory for that. So for us, I will say and I will recognize Mercury retrograde. I will. I will recognize it. I know. Just because you don't know a lot about astrology doesn't mean it does not affect you because it's energy. And I have, I was talking to a friend last, just this last week and we were both talking about how we've been following the moon cycles for years. And I, myself back in, oh gosh, 2016, I created a small group called the Moon Club. Some of you are familiar with the Moon Club and we would meet on the full moon and we would do clearing and connect with spirit guides. And it was just this ritual that we did every month. And so to that moon energy then became this amazing supporter and also guide. And I think part of me falling in love with the moon was about me discovering myself, my beautiful feminine energy and my beautiful essence and my soul and my balancing of all my energies. And so to for you this early moon plus Mercury retrograde, you may feel a lot that doesn't make sense. And you might seem like you're over over emotional, quick to anger, irritable, tired, extra tired. Or you might seem super energetic, like the hyperactive part, like the kid with all the sugar like that. Or all the caffeine in my case as an adult, okay, too much caffeine, you do not want to be around me. Buzzing, buzzing, buzzing. Any number of these things could be how the moon is affecting or impacting you. And the reason why I'm bringing this up is because, well, it's relevant. It's present right here right now. And number two, we got to harness this energy that we have available to us. We got to write it. Because why not? That's what we're here for is to enjoy the ride of this thing called life, right? And so we get this opportunity to learn about it. And we learn about ourselves. And we learn about energy. Because this early moon, and on the piggyback end of the Mercury retrograde stuff, there's a lot of energy moving. There could be turbulence, there could be spiraling, there could be amping up high highs, low lows, there could be just this like, detachment, maybe some of you are like eject eject and just detached from all of it. And you're like, I don't know what you're talking about. I don't feel anything. I'm like, Oh, honey, give it about five days, maybe a week or so. And then you'll feel the effects after the fact. It's kind of like a hangover energetically because you'll get one.  And your flip flops on because you just couldn't find the other sock. So you could put your tennis shoes on today. So I'm not just talking about people who are mothers. I'm talking about everybody. Everybody. So let's work with this early moon, let's feel the energetics and use the reese of the retrograde retrograde is all about the review, renewal, revisiting, recharging, receiving. It's that recognition. It's an opportunity for reduce. You got to redo. I know me too. Got quite a few actually. And don't worry. Don't worry. I described to people I'm like, if you make a decision, and it's not quite the right decision, or you feel like you're going the wrong direction, like you only had two choices. The universe would laugh at you if they heard you say that, because it's a cul-de-sac. You get to a T in the road, a fork in the road, it's right or left, it's a cul-de-sac, you end up in the same place. You just are a different person when you get there, based upon the experiences you've had on your journey. And guess what? That's where free will comes in your mind influences you.   What are you getting upset about right now? What do you feel like you're lacking or missing out on? Are you FOMOing right now? Oh my god, I'm missing out. Oh my god, it's so old. Oh my god, I should have went to college for X, Y and Z and instead I did X, Y and L. Like, oh, I should have went on that trip. Oh, I wish I would have registered for this. Oh, I wish I would have applied for that job. Mm-mm. Mm-mm. All of this coulda shoulda woulda wisha is information. It's giving you information. All this, the emotion that's coming in is giving you intel. Pay attention on this early full moon. It's giving you information, helping you to sort. And it's easy. Yes, no, yes, no, yes, no, yes, no, yes, no. And if you're concerned about the yes, no, yes, no, yes, no, yes, no, go back to the nose and start reading down them again. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. It gets easier each time you go through the pile. And the yeses, some of them become more nose. That's the point. That's all focuses. That's all focuses narrowing things down, getting information. Sometimes you get bombarded by what you don't want and what you dislike, so that you can really savor the opportunities, the moments, the chances of possibilities for what you really do enjoy. That includes people. If you really hate your coworkers and you really hate the people you work with and work from home, or look for another environment. But if you keep moving jobs and the same things keep happening just like relationships, if you keep changing people and the same things keep happening, guess what? It's you. It's you that's recreating the same scenario. That's just the truth. That's just the fact. That's not a judgment. This is a fact. That's not judgment. Hey, I do the same thing. Like if you could see me right now, if we were actually on video, which were not because I have to work in a little while, don't have time to do video right now. I'm raising my hand. I do the same thing. I recreate the same thing too. And then what happens? Then you go, Okay, I'm out. Yeah, I'm out. I fold. No one to fold and my folder, my folder fold. Nope, I'm out. I'm out. Not doing that again. Nope, not doing anything anywhere near anywhere close to that again, ever.  Isn't that what I described earlier with the energies for some of you that don't feel it at all? It doesn't mean the planets are not in your charts. It means your energy isn't connected in some way, shape or form. It doesn't mean it has to be. But the sheer awareness that it's not is important. You got to ask the question. There's healthy detachment, you know, like the Buddha and detachment work, but you know, detached from the outcomes and all of that goodness. But that's what I'm talking about here. Relationships, energy, work, people, however it plays out, it's energetic relationship, energetic relationship. And that full moon helps you to clear to process. It's just a matter of fact, yes, no, yes, no, yes, no, yes, no, yes, no. Go back to the nose if you're worried about it. No, no, no, no, you're just reaffirm what you already know in the nose. Am I getting to you? Like, do you believe what I'm saying to you about energy? Or are you going to go read like 15 different experts on stuff and then get so overloaded and overwhelmed with information that you're not going to do anything about it anyway? I mean, it's okay if that's what you're going to do. That's we will call that a distraction, which is a form of detachment, which is I'm not going to participate in this in a way that's going to be applicable to me. You can research and get intel. Great. But apply it. How are you going to apply it? You got to digest. You got to digest. See, this is why we challenge we're challenged in receiving because we receive too much input, too much stimulus, too much overloaded overwhelm, which is empathically, oh my God, electronically shorting out our circuits, which is why when we have something like a mercury retrograde and a full moon energy coming in, we get so tilted world spinny, spinny, spinny.  So should we do that right now? Should we ground in? Do you guys want to plug in? Do you need to find your chargers? Okay, do you need to find your chargers?  You got like one in the bedroom, one in the bathroom, one in the hallway, one by the entryway door.  So let's find your charger. Let's plug in. Want to do that? Should we do that? Okay, let's do that. So this part is going to be a little meditative. So get ready for that. If you don't like that, it's not your Jimmy Jam or your Terry Lewis, just move along. It's okay. Sip a coffee today. But good news, you guys.  That's my coffee mug I got right now.   Ah, everybody exhale. Ah, there you go. Good job. All right. It should be obvious but don't do this when you're driving. Okay. Okay. I could be really magical. You never know today might put you into a state. Don't listen when you're driving or operating heavy machinery. But please listen around your pets and your young children. Okay. Nice breath in nice exhale out. Yeah, use your voice. Come on. Use your voice. Do you have one? Yes, you do. You have a voice. Okay, good. Good, good, good. All right. Nice. Open that mouth. Good. All right. Soften in to the mushy center of your body. Go right to your Buddha belly. Go right to the center core of your body. So we're going to activate the energy of that sacral chakra, that belly space. We're actually gonna, we're gonna bring the upper belly and the lower belly together. We're gonna use that diaphragm energy as you breathe. We're gonna utilize that beautiful yellow of the solar plexus, your spirit, your sun chakra and that gorgeous, very deep pumpkin spice latte, orange, sacral chakra. Okay. So those two together, we're going right to the engine room. Okay. Of the ship. Okay. Nice breath in. And exhale out. If you feel weird, you're doing it right. Wiggle your jaw. If you can, if you're comfortable, or at least drop your jaw open a little bit. Make a little bit of a noise if you can. I know it sounds weird, but you're doing it right if it sounds weird. Because the point is not just to open your mouth. The point is to activate judgment. Did it work? Okay, feeling your breath. Exhaling out. Do you feel judgment when you say anything?  You feel some judgment there. You feel some silliness. You feel your mind saying, what's the point of this? I thought this was meditation. Do you feel a lot of judgment? Good job on that. Yeah. Okay. Thank you brain. Okay. Thank you. Nice breath in for the brain. Exhale out, drop into the body now.  And that is in your solar plexus and your sacral chakra. So in your belly, go to your belly, upper belly and low belly. Going to balance out the energy of the Buddha belly. That wise wisdom center. We're going to imagine a beautiful orb of light at the center core of your body right at the center of your spine. It kind of looks like one of those big exercise balls.  That's in the center of your body. So when you're moving up and down with your spine, your your lungs are supported and held kind of buoyed by that soft little bouncy orb energy, that beautiful sphere of light just kind of in there at the center.  It's kind of soft. It's buoyant. It feels flexible. Like it can move a little bit, give and has some ease to it. Okay. And so if you wiggle the left and right just a little bit, it'll be easeful kind of rolling to one side, rolling to the other side. Now, if you're sitting, you'll particularly like I'm sitting cross-legged right now on kind of a soft cushion. It I can kind of feel that a little bit going back and forth and move how your body feels good with that beautiful ball, that orb of light in there. Again, it's yellow and orange pumpkin spice latte orange and sun orange. So sunflowers and pumpkins. Oh, yes. Okay. Feel in the front of the body. Allow your body to feel squishy. Let yourself get some rolly-poly-olies, right? We need some rolls. Rolls. We need some squishiness and we need to sit in this state and not have judgment of our body because you will. When you're breathing in and exhaling out, you will feel some judgment as you feel your physical body. This is embodiment. This is a connection, a relationship to the body. So that solar plexus, a sacral chakra are loving and honoring the body, reaching out from that center, that bouncy, that exercise ball energy, arcing out into that Buddha belly tummy and letting it fall over the lower thighs, fall over the legs and just be soft. Recognizing that that is great. That is good. That is your soul inside, your yellow, rich sun chakra reaching out to touch the edge of your big belly and underneath, cupping underneath the body, under that the hips and the sitz bone and the pelvis and that tailbone and curling back up into the body and holding that bottom of your body, of your pelvis and rocking that, holding that and then the skin kind of falling over, softening, relaxing. So you feel the energetics of that sacrum, that sacral area, that beautiful, beautiful, deep, rich pumpkin, that harvested prosperity and abundant energy of creation that you are, you are right in here right now and feeling that come up and reach up towards your belly button and be part of your skin, of your belly, of your physical body so that the energetics of that beautiful orange energy reaches up and through the skin penetrates that energy of the belly button now with that yellow of that solar plexus, that sun chakra together, yellow and orange and the skin of the belly, yellow and orange as though you were painting your skin and you can use your hand to rub your belly, the more chubby, the more rolly, the more soft you can get the better. Let the body have its space without judgment, just let it be at ease encompassing you and enfolding you, creating the embodiment of your solar plexus and your sacral chakra, your spirit, your intuition, your temple within you and and your creation center of your sacral chakra. Breathe in now, exhale out, let this energy move together, let these energies flow through you, they belong to you, the energy of the planets, the energy of the retrogrades, the energy of the new full moon coming in, the big full moon, they're yours, they belong to you.  I'm going to ask that you be grounded and centered in the time that is now in this life as you step into your day more fully, more completely. I ask that you be aligned with your spiritual guides or healing helpers. I'm going to ask that any energy that has moved or shifted as a result of our conversation today, as our energetic conversation today, that non-linear time be used to process any of these changes which is basically while you're sleeping. If you need additional help to do so or you find things maybe not clearing quite so readily, you can always call upon Archangel Meditron who is an energetic chiropractor and will align your chakras and your energy centers and your energy grids in your body. And I would suggest, like I tell all of my clients, to do so before you go to bed to ask for their assistance, because Meditron is a great sacred geometry ambassador of grid and alignment in regards to energy. So there you are. Pretty nice, huh? I will also make mention that I am doing a small group on the last day of this month. That would be Thursday, the 31st of August. And you can join if you'd like. You can find a description in the description here in this video. You will see that there is a link where you can register for that small group. It usually ends up to be about an hour and 20 minutes or so depending upon the group size. I try to keep it small, like less than 10 people, so that I can really connect and feel the group individually and personally. It's an extremely affordable option for a psychic reading if you would like one. There's an opportunity for a psychic Q&A, not for everyone, but as many people as I can get through during our time. The format is as follows. It is a small group conversation. I do a little mini talk like I do here kind of on Sunday morning coffee, but I will channel like usually a spirit guide or a totem animal or something that comes through that feels really poignant. I do that for 10 minutes or so. Then I will tap into individuals and we'll do some Q&A. I do not channel celebrities during this time. That's not the intent of this. It is extraordinarily affordable and I have been doing it the last few months. In order to keep doing it, though, I will need your support. So please consider joining if you would like. Right now, the introductory price is only $40 per person to join. Again, you're not guaranteed a reading or personal information. However, you will definitely get involved in part of a inspiring psychic experience. Thank you so much for being part of Sunday morning coffee. I appreciate you guys always on above live channel here on YouTube. I will try to channel on Mondays and it has been difficult in doing that. Thank you for your patience and for your continued support as I have been trying to get it done on Monday. And if I can't, I'll do it on Tuesday.   This is your life after all and you get to live it. Just live it. Thanks for being here.
