Thank you for staying with us on Y254 News Updates and so we get to the point of a program whereby we get to talk about issues affecting people and tonight we talk about autism awareness and with me today is Dr. Lincoln Kamau, an autism expert with autism lights and Jessica Heela, who is a consultant under the autism lights. Thank you very much guys for really finding time to talk about these with us and my first question will go to you Dr. Lincoln. Can you define the autism disorder for people probably who have no idea about what it is? Yeah, autism is a developmental disorder that affects speech, language and social skills development. We human beings are born to be social. When kids are born, when kids are in their mother's stomach, I mean mothers talk to them and they kind of respond. So when kids are born just two, three, four days they start focusing on their mother's faces. I mean as they develop they are able to run language, they are able to look at their mom's faces and smiles. Kids with autism don't do that, they don't run how to smile, they don't run how to socially communicate, they don't acquire language, so that's what autism is. Okay, so for you Jessica, what is the autism lights? What do you do? What does this organization focus on as far as autism is concerned? Autism Lights is a non-profit organization that's based out of Boston, Massachusetts in the United States and most of their work is done here in Kenya and they're focusing on bringing awareness about autism as well as science-based services and resources to people here in Kenya who have children with autism and have autism themselves. Okay, as I was going through my research preparing for this show, I got to look at different comments or reviews by people that there is no known cause of autism but every disease, every disorder, everything has something that causes it. What would you say is a cause for? Yeah, we really don't know what cause is autism but there is a hinge, autism could be genetic. And the reason we have a hinge, this could be genetic.  Research in the United States on genetics has identified about 100 and another research identified about 600 gene mutations that could be related to autism. So we are heading to that hinge as autism being genetically related. So is it probably related to, does it have any other relation to any other diseases or does it have their risk factors to a person living with autism? I mean before they are born there are no risk factors.  So they are really no risk factors because I mean I hear people saying probably my child got autism because I was drinking when they were pregnant. I was living in this polluted area. Autism affects everyone in regards of socioeconomic status. Yeah, we know kids who live in Mathare with autism. We know kids who live in Boston, New York with autism. So we know kids who live in Shanghai with autism. So it's a common element everywhere in the world. Okay. For you Jessica, for the time that you've been serving under the Autism Lights organization, what is your experience with autism? As far as the autism disorder is concerned, what growth is there because the time whereby people would say that these kids born with autism are probably witchcraft. Sometimes people say these people are cursed and all those things. So how far are we with people having the knowledge and knowing that it's not that these people probably are not supposed to be here. So how have you been able to deal with all that? I mean I think I have noticed and found that there are a lot of myths surrounding autism and a lot of people that really don't understand it. But it's definitely not a death sentence. You can diagnose autism by the age of two and then as soon as you get services kids with autism can make significant progress and really be able to live successful and productive lives. Okay. So can you say that parents with such kids are now coming out and saying that I have a autistic child and I'm willing to help them. How would you say the numbers had compared to times when people would prefer to lock such kids inside the houses and not expose them to the public? I mean that is our main goal with Autism Lights is to bring more and more awareness so that people feel comfortable sharing their experience and being able to get services. Because the earlier you get services the more chances that your child has to succeed. Okay. So now Dr. Lane Kwan. So what about the signs and symptoms? What are the signs of symptoms of the autistic disorder? What can a parent look out for to be able to notice probably early and see how to help their child? Yeah, autism can easily be diagnosed by the age of two and three. The first sign is lack of communication. I mean if you have a four-year-old child who has zero words, who is not communicating, who is not babbling, seek an evaluation. I mean if you have a child who is again who is not giving eye contact, a child who isn't smiling, a child who isn't interacting or praying with other kids, again seek an evaluation from a pediatrician. And those are the key tell signs. One, lack of eye contact. Two, the inability to communicate. There are also some symptoms like what we call stereotypical behaviors, like walking on tiptoes, I mean hand frapping. Those are the key signs of autism. Okay. So is it treatable, can autism be cured? Yeah, autism can be cured. QI is a very strong one. Autism cannot be cured. And I really would like to stress this about curing because there are a lot of quak therapists going out there and telling people autism can be cured. No, autism cannot be cured but autism can effectively be treated. I mean in the United States where I work most of the year, I have been doing this in over 20 years. And we have gotten to treat kids who come to us at 2, 3, 4, 5 and they are now productive citizens in the community. There is an individual I have been working with almost the last 10 years now who just went and started university this spring. So yeah, autism can effectively be treated. Before we get so much into the treatment conversation, I would like to ask you, Jessica, why did you choose to work only on the autism disorder? What pushed you? What motivated you to go and serve under autism lights? Well, I have been working with kids with special needs for about 7 years now. And as much as I feel like all kids with special needs deserve to get the treatment and education, I think that there is a lot of stigma and misinformation about autism. And it is also the fastest growing condition in the world right now. So I think that it really deserves to have someone work hard to make sure people are aware. Okay, so Dr. Lincoln at the treatment we have therapy, we have medication and we have specialists. So what type of therapy works for what symptoms? The first thing is assessment. So when you know what your kid needs, then consult the actual experts.   Of course there are individuals out there again who are selling the quak therapies, kind of that don't work. For instance diet interventions, stem cell interventions, those are interventions that are out there in the market that have no research to it. So the most effective interventions are educational interventions. Because individuals with autism skills, they are deficits that they display. So we came from a conference in Thika this morning where we were working with teachers on teaching interventions. For instance if your child doesn't speak, of course you need to put interventions. Interventions must be very specific to the deficit. So now when we talk about therapy, if probably your child does not speak, you go and look for a speech therapist. At the autistic kids or autistic persons always under medication. At what point does one probably go off or have to get medication? Actually there is no medication that works for autism. So what happens with autism? There are secondary characteristics to autism like hyperactivity. So there is medication like Gryspador that is prescribed by most doctors. But it doesn't treat autism, it treats the secondary characteristics. So in the United States actually the Food and Drug Administration hasn't approved any medication for autism. The FDA approves all drugs that have to be consumed by the public in the United States. We don't have such an agency here. But going by the FDA recommendations we really do not have medications for autism. We know that April is a month dedicated to autism awareness. And we know second is a World Autism Awareness Day. So what events Jessica do you have? What have you planned? What events do you have? What plans do you have to make sure that you pass the right message that you wish to pass to people? I mean we have come here all the way from Boston with a full schedule of events. Like Dr. Lincoln said we did a teacher training earlier today in Pika. And we have a couple other parent trainings as well as media appearances. So what is your focus? Because you're here in Nairobi and you're dealing with parents and teachers who are dealing with autistic kids in the city. What about someone in the rural areas? How do they get helped? How do they get to assess your information that you have with them? That's a great question because those are some of the areas that are going to be the places where it's most difficult for parents and children to get the services that they need. So that's why I think we're doing as many media appearances as we can so that people can see us and learn about autism so that they're more educated on what they can do and the best practices to help their child. So Dr. Lincoln we know that it is different when dealing with a kid with a young person with autistic disorder and when dealing with an adult. So how do you create a balance? How do you know what to say? How to probably these people do not like touch, they are not so good with touch. So how do you get to deal with these people without making them feel uncomfortable? That intervention starts at a very early age. So when you start interventions when one is an individuo, when one is a retro kid you'll be able to desensitize them to issues like touch, personal space and issues like those that are challenges. And you bring a very good issue here. We had an event at the bombers of Kenya this past Sunday and we were able to come across parents of both retro individuos and individuos way up into the 21s. So there is a very big service divide within these two populations. And that is not only here in Kenya, that's a global phenomenon. We have very good services in most places for the 2 to 18. But past 18 we really don't have anything. I mean I don't think that's for parents or individuos like us to do. I think that's where we challenge our government to come in and put services. I was actually getting to the point about how can the government come in and help in making sure that these people living with autistic disorders can assess whatever it is that they want to assess, can be able to live like a normal person, can be able to work and all these things. Oh no, what do you think the government can do to make it better than how it is right now? Yeah, the government needs to put in place resources. I mean we did a training with teachers this morning and they complained how retro training they get. We met the teachers on Saturday. Everywhere in the world in the country we are hearing the same things. We are not trained, we are not trained. And a very good example, for one to be able to work with kids with autism, you have to be a board certified behavior analyst. Unfortunately we have only two in Kenya. We have only one level board certified doctor or level clinician, that's me. Again these are skills that can be trained. I mean there are some universities in Kenya that universities in the United States have tried to form collaborations. But they didn't go through the due to lack of government involvement. So governments need to provide resources, governments need to provide training both for teachers and for the parents. Okay, so Jessica what opportunities are there for autistic persons, these are autistic persons. I have this talent but where do I get to showcase my talent? Where do I get to showcase my skills? So let's talk about opportunities and how can they tap them? People with autism have many skills and many talents. And they are more than capable of working and finding places where they can succeed. So most of the time people with autism work best in a position that has a lot of routine and has very repetitive tasks. So if there's a position like that you can find that would be the best. Okay, so are there any issues with diet to autistic persons? Is there something they should not eat, is there a type of medication that probably they should not consume? No and this is a question that comes up over and over again. Again I put that back to the quack therapies out there. I mean a lot of parents with autism are spending so much money on places where they should not. Unless your child has some gastrointestinal issues there is no need to use a diet intervention. Going back to autism is a skills deficit.  I mentioned this in Vika this morning.  Okay, so now for parents living with autistic children, whether it's a child or an adult, now what advice would you give to these parents to be able to push their child to become a better person, to become someone who is needed in the society and someone who can contribute to the growth of the society? I mean one of the best things that parents of children with autism can do is seek help from a professional. That way the professional can help a parent learn how to help their child build skills and asking for help can be a really hard thing but it is definitely the best. Okay, stigmatization. This is something that comes with a lot of things that happen. So how now do we try to get rid of stigmatization to make people understand that this is not a curse, this is not a witchcraft, this is a person who needs love, this is a person who requires to assess certain resources as you do. How do we get rid of stigmatization as far as autism is concerned? That's what we are doing here, creating awareness. As individuals become more aware of what's autism and what's not autism, acceptance will become an issue. They will just begin to accept. And autism is a very fast growing disability like Jessica mentioned here. One in 65 school going kids of autism. So there is a very high probability of everyone knowing a child with autism. So as we learn to, as more kids come up with the diagnosis, who are our siblings, our brothers, our nephews, acceptance, acceptance, people will begin to accept this. And with acceptance the stigma goes away. Okay. So Jessica, with the Autism Lights Organization, what achievements have you guys made so far? Well this is the second time that Autism Lights has sponsored a trip here for Dr. Lincoln. It's my first one here in Kenya. Okay. But so we have had more and more events scheduled each time that we have come back and worked here to bring more awareness about autism. We also have a lot of trainings that are being offered online for people to be able to learn more so that they're educated. Probably you could give the sites. Maybe sites, you've talked about people being, this educational information being offered online. Would you give a site where probably someone who is interested can go to? Yeah, you can always check the Facebook page for Autism Lights Incorporated as well as Autism Lights.org. Okay, before I cut you short you on something. Yeah, we also, about two years ago, rather three years ago in 2016, we published this menu. It's called the Parents Guide for Autism Parents in Kenya. It's also available on our website and it addresses all these issues from my child has autism, what do I do as a parent? How do you take care of yourself? We address the stigma, all these issues. It's about a 36 page menu. We work with other organizations. It actually has a list of all autism providers in the country as per 2016. So it's a very informative menu that parents can get access to. Because I always hear this, my child is diagnosed with autism. What do I do next? So that menu addresses most of those questions. Okay, as you wind up, Jessica, a message to parents or people living around someone with autism disorder. Your last comment on this. Okay. To any parents and people who know parents or children with autism, stay positive. There's hard work that needs to be done, but reach out to the people who are close to you so that they can support you. And if you know someone with autism, just lend a helping hand whenever you can. It's harder than you think to make sure that everyone is getting the needs that they need. Dr. Lincoln? Yeah, I tell parents all the time, two things.  Okay. Two, and just the last one.  Okay. Thank you very much, guys, for really fighting the time to come and speak to us on Y254 TV. And we wish you all the best as you continue creating the awareness and we hope that you're going to achieve whatever that has brought you in Kenya. Thank you very much, guys, for tuning in and listening on tonight. And if you're home with, if you have a autistic person living around you, love them, be able to interact with these people in the right way and push them. Because you've heard from the doctor, you've heard from the consultant that these are people who can also contribute to the growth of this economy. Thank you very much. My name is Patricia Muriuki. Do have your sayasavek. Good night.


What's good y'all, it's your boy Ross back here again with another video. So since money in the bank is coming up this Sunday, we have to check out this video what made money in the bank 2011 so iconic by none other than wrestling gifts. We got to check this out man. Money in the bank 2011 may be one of the best money in the bank pay-per-views of all time arguably one of the best matches of all time between John Cena and CM Punk. One of the best storytelling matches you will ever see and honestly I want to say this is the pay-per-view that got me back in the wrestling. This was right after the infamous CM Punk pipe bomb when I saw it on YouTube that's when I started getting back in the wrestling leading up to money in the bank 2011 dead ass this is the pay-per-view that brought me back and I was like yo this is good sign me up so we got to check this out because money in the bank is coming up this Sunday so this should be interesting I'm looking forward to money in the bank this Sunday I will be live streaming y'all so be on the lookout for that because I think this is going to be really cool so check this video out appreciate all love and support let's get into it. It's 2011 and the greatest song of all time was released Friday by Rebecca Black.  Oh and the WWE you might ask well let's just say it wasn't the best year Wrestlemania was just boring one of the all-time greats edge was forced to retire Michael Cole and Jerry Lawler had a kiss my foot match and I love John Cena. Yeah that was yeah there was some cringe in that year of wrestling for sure.  There were some bright spots though such as our truth becoming a great heel with a little jimmy stuff Christian and Randy Orton were having classics and Daniel Bono was still grinding but the thing is for every one good storyline or angle we got five boring ass storylines towards the end of April 2011 wrestling news sites began reporting that CM Punk may leave the WWE as he had not extended his contract it basically became widespread news that he might leave it was no secret that punk was tired and just didn't want to be in the company anymore so then in June of 2011 the WWE had a pay-per-view called capital punishment one of the worst pay-per-views of all time that's all I have to say and man what I'd tell you that this pay-per-view was trash it was trash if you ever want to torture someone don't waterboard them don't beat them up just make them watch this pay-per-view they had a fake Barack Obama bro like I said one of the worst pay-per-views of all time just just awful Obama doing a spin a rune in the middle of the ring for absolutely no reason it didn't even look like Obama they just got like a random black guy put him in a suit and just threw him out there and like yeah you're Obama what the fuck okay it was really really bad trust me don't ever watch this pay-per-view except maybe for one match CM Punk versus Ray Mysterio they had a great match as they always did whenever they wrestled CM Punk won the match but the main story of it was before the match so he had a backstage interview and CM Punk said that after he beats Mysterio he's gonna do the most honest thing that the WWE universe has ever seen we didn't really get anything on this show but the seed was planted shout out Joey Diaz also this match took place almost two months since the news broke that punk may not resign I was looking back at a live review from the show from the website ProWrestling.net and Jason Powell even said right after the match quote no I don't think this means punk has signed a new deal of course it could be a sign but the WWE might be keeping him strong so that it means something if someone beats him and sends him out of the company so as they were slowly building out punk in May and June everyone just assumed it was because if he did decide to leave whoever beat him in his last match just got more out of it the next night on raw CM Punk was sitting in the middle of the ring and he declared himself the number one contender for the WWE Championship but he didn't want that match that night or on an episode of raw no instead he wanted a July 17th at the Money the Bank pay-per-view in his hometown of Chicago Illinois he said that he would not leave the ring until he got his match this led to him sitting there for minutes he eventually started making snow angels and CM Punk he this is the thing that catapulted his career him just saying screw it I'm about to say what I want and do what I want this catapulted his career to new heights it did in the middle of the ring then the anonymous Roger on manager oh my god who remembers that the anonymous Roger oh my god that was so annoying oh oh my goodness bro it was so awful hearing that the little dean the little notification like I just received an email shut up Michael Cole that's what Michael Cole was really unbearable on commentary oh my god remember that we'll go on to announce that if CM Punk wanted to challenge John Cena at Money the Bank for the title he would have to be Rey Mysterio and Alberto Del Rio in a triple threat match tonight on raw that very night CM Punk nexus R&B and all rest in peace nexus won the match and officially became the number one contender for the WWE championship oh man rest in peace nexus say they could have been so much better but they yeah they didn't WWE didn't really book them correctly like they should have so the match is over he's the number one contender he's sitting in the ring and he announces July 17th he's gonna beat John Cena at Money in the Bank and then he goes on to announce that July 17th is also the night that his contract with the world wrestling entertainment comes to an end so the real-life situation was now a part of the storyline they actually acknowledged that his contract was going to expire he then goes on to say once the clock strikes midnight i'm leaving and trust me when i tell you i'm leaving with the WWE championship and he just drops the mic shit legit just got real see the thing was when punk spoke people listen when punk spoke everything he said came off as gospel because when he spoke it didn't seem like an angle it seemed like the truth whether it was when he was doing the straight edge society or nexus you always believed what he was saying wasn't the character talking it was Phil Brooks talking you believed it was legit so when he brought up the contract it was like whoa we already knew that his contract was legit expiring but now that they brought it up on cv and he was dead serious about leaving it was interesting it was exciting and it was different next week on raw it started off like any other episode of raw we got the horrible horrible nico back theme song playing we got Michael introducing the show and then some guy named Shawn Michaels came out and plugged his outdoor show which i don't think anybody watched and then nexus came out with CM punk and they had a nice back and forth Shawn Michaels and punk were talking which somehow led to the anonymous raw general manager making a match for CM punk which led to him versus Cain they did a count off finish and it was just like damn CM punk's angle is done in the first 20 minutes of the show that's it that's it for punk after dropping a fire promo last week dropping the bombshell that he's leaving the company with the belt he was done after a match with Cain well not exactly in the main event of the show our truth be john seen in the tables match thanks to CM punk's help the match was already in the overrun meaning the show could end at any second as it was past 11 in the eastern time zone so after punk helped our truth win he went to the top of the stage and he took a seat one of if not the most legendary promo of all time i honestly think this promo brought people back to wrestling when they found out what was being said just oh man and then he had a microphone and he said he has a lot of things that he wants to get off his chest before he leaves in three weeks remember how at capital punishment the seed was planted when punk said that he was going to do the most honest thing that you have ever seen in the wwe well it was time so punk said he doesn't hate sena or even dislike sena he said he actually likes sena more than a lot of people in the back but i hate this idea that you're the best punk said because you're not the best i'm the best ladies and gentlemen we got the pipe bomb it was a moment when the lines between fiction and reality were blurred to almost unprecedented levels levels we had rarely ever seen in the wwe i get chills just thinking about it everything that punk said in this promo was real and from the heart nothing he said was scripted from any writer it wasn't anybody else's words this was all of him this is what he wanted to say this wasn't some writer going up to him with a book saying please can you mention these points no this is what he wanted to say and that's what made this so special punk said that he's proving to everyone he's the best in the ring on the mic and even on commentary he said that no matter how many times he proves it he's not on collector cups in movies or late night talk shows he goes on to say how vince is a millionaire who should be a billionaire he said vince surrounds himself with yes men like john loranitis and then he goes on to say probably the most wild line that he could have said he said that he likes to think that the company is going to be better once vince is dead but it's going to be run by his daughter and her doofus husband holy like i said watching this really got me back in the wrestling because i hadn't watched wrestling you know in a while i had stopped watching it this was right when i was you know i wanted to say i was probably like a sophomore in college sophomore in college at this time so i really wasn't too much watching wrestling sophomore jr one of those two going probably into my junior year but when i saw this on youtube i was like oh i gotta watch what's been what's been happening this is what got me back his promo deadass deadass punk then was about to tell a personal story about vince bachman when a mic cut out a short time later the show went off the air and he said so much more it was an iconic moment and i'm sure if you watch it i can watch this over and over again always just be fascinated ladies and gentlemen it was surreal it was insane it was shocking it was unbelievable seeing punk for a few minutes just dropped bombs facts the truth whatever you want to call it and just like his promo from the week before you knew he was serious you knew that he believed in what he was saying this was a promo that left fans wondering what was real and what was the part of the story it was just crazy we really had no idea was he gonna stay in the wwe or was he gonna quit in the promo he even mentioned that he's gonna win that belt and go defend it at ring of honor early japan wrestling he broke the fourth wall he started talking about koka banna he he just went crazy this was unheard of at the time no one like wwe didn't really like to mention other promotions so he's talking about other promotions other wrestlers that used to be there this gave it such authenticity because it was like yo he's literally saying what's on his mind this is not coming from vince or any writer any script director whatever you want to call him in the back giving pointers this is how he felt and it made it so much more better he just turned up to some unbelievable levels during that promo see the thing is the reason this whole angle worked it was because it was cm punk yep all right take it like this if any other wrestlers said that he was gonna leave the wwe especially in 2011 people would be like yeah sure whatever but the thing is it's cm punk this isn't someone who's all about the money this is a man who just loved wrestling he himself said that he would go defend the title of ring of honor or japan so he's a wrestler first not a wwe superstar so him leaving wasn't some crazy thing that you know people didn't believe so nobody knew what was happening nobody knew what was happening next was he staying was he leaving and the pipe bomb was just so big that espn was talking about it i remember this espn started covering this because at this point wwe they were kind of losing steam like people weren't as invested but when this happened people was like oh okay oh something whoa what is what's going on here and this was before the wwe had any contract with espn news outlets random sites online that had nothing to do with wrestling it was everywhere it was a moment that transcended wrestling a moment where nobody will forget where they were when this happened and the best part was it was just out of the blue it came at a time when the company was at its most pg and the product was so still this was in the prime pg era and this man said that company would be better when vince was dead what the hell seam punk became a cult hero that night a legend the voice of the people a true moment in wrestling history yeah this is this is a moment that will forever be remembered in wrestling history for all time no doubt about it like in this video so far man for the next week on raw they did an angle where semen punk was suspended for what he said and he was out of the match and money in the bank it was perfect punk lit the world on fire and now you take him away for a week don't put him on television yeah the people wanting more so that night john sena confronted vince micman and he was basically begging vince micman to reinstate sena punk and allow him to participate in their schedule wwe championship match and money in the bank and vince actually put over punk and he said to john that he thinks punk will actually beat sena and he can't allow that to happen and sena was killing it as well say what you want about sena but when he's in serious promo mode he's an all-time great and eventually sena walks out on vince and he gives a title to vince and just walks away vince runs up to him and says you know what you got your match but if sena loses he's fired so the stakes got even higher on the next week of raw semen punk is back he's sitting in the middle of the ring with the megaphone and he simply says one of the most fitting lines and this is crazy because this is when i started watching it weekly i started watching monday night raw weekly at this point because i wanted to know what was gonna happen with the semen punk angle bruh wrestling history do i have everybody's attention now semen punk had the wrestling world in the palm of his hands and then he goes on to say that tonight he wants the first ever live contract negotiation in the ring with vince maybe i'll sign maybe i won't he said he goes on and on and then sena eventually comes out to confront him so sena and punk go back and forth it's intense it's serious it's authentic and it's cool because there's no bs storyline here it's just legit two people who want to prove that they're the best in the world and you can tell punk means what he says and you also know that sena means everything that he says as well they just go back and forth just having an amazing promo and then sena simply ends it with i don't care if you have a mic or a megaphone i don't care if you stay or if you go i'm coming to chicago to kick your ass he drops the mic and he leaves so close the show vince is in the ring this segment too with vince mcman was so great as well oh my god this is so this is when monday night raw had the better storyline in wwe the main storyline this storyline carried monday night raw a lot of people didn't really care what was going on outside of this storyline because this single handedly was the thing that people wanted to check out table and he has a contract and it's time for him and sena punk to negotiate a contract before money in the bank both men argue about what punk wants and punk says he wants the main event at rest of dominia he wants his ice cream and he said most importantly that he wants vince to apologize for everything that he's ever done punk brought up the anti-bullying campaign and he said that vince is one of the biggest bullies he's ever met in his life and he wants him to apologize he wants vince to apologize for firing his friends for no reason he keeps saying that he wants him to apologize but you guys know vince he won't but he did vince actually apologizes and he says i apologize you son of a bitch see him punk had the wwe in the pumping hands not just the fans but the boss the craziest part about this was how much was this real how much was fabricated and how much of this the cn punk actually want and what did he really mean you know cn punk was serious about his friends being fired he knew he was serious about the main event at rest of dominia and that's what made this so special because you knew that 90% of the things that punk was saying he meant it sure they probably added some fabricated stuff in there but overall it was still authentic but then syna's music plays and it's time for the final stare down before the match syna's all business and he starts talking he's like i hate vince too but i still show up to work but not for that man not for vince but for the people and then syna calls punk the hypocrite he says punk will ask the people if they want to see an apology and then he will ask them to be the voice of the voiceless but then he's gonna leave them syna absolutely kills it and then punk kills it too because punk's like you're not the underdog that you portray yourself to be you're not you are what you hate you're the ten-time champion you're the man john syna you're the dynasty i'm the underdog you're the yankees they both just brought their a game and the final words we get to close off raw before the pig review are by cn punk and they were just perfect i'm tired of this i'm tired of you ladies and gentlemen of the wwe universe sunday night say goodbye to the wwe title say goodbye to john syna and say goodbye to cm punk mic drop that's it that's how you build a paper review so what else is so special about this is this angle brought back a lot of people to the wwe this he is spot on this angle brought me back to wrestling if it was not for cn punk dropping this part this this pipe bomb i don't know when i would have came back to wrestling i'm gonna just be honest with you i mean dead ass cm punk brought me back to wrestling his pipe bomb these promos these segments brought me back to want to check out wrestling again dead ass bro dead ass comment down below if cm punk was one of the reasons why you got back into wrestling again let me know we a lot of people themselves admit like hey i didn't watch a lot of wrestling i kind of faded away but this angle brought me back this truly was just a special time to be a wrestling fan facts bro it's sunday july 17 2011 the day of the paper view the day of syna versus punk for the wwe championship cm punk's last day in the wwe unless he signs the contracts and at 8 p.m eastern when the show started cm punk had yet to sign a contract extension so when the clock struck midnight he would be a free agent yes this actually happened the anticipation for this paper view was insane yes it was something real made a part of the storyline and people just loved it it made for intriguing paper view and tv i would love to go over the entire paper view but this video was already mad long so i'm just gonna stick to the main event but please go out of your way to watch this it definitely is one of the greatest paper views that the company has ever produced yeah it was a real good cm punk versus john syna when cm punk walked into the building that evening like i said he had still yet to sign any contract extension punk's contract actually ended two days prior so to even wrestle at this show he agreed to a two-day contract extension just to make the paper view this is nothing was leaked nobody knew what's going on as the people you started nobody's still anyway i i i think some people didn't know i believe the announcers at the time they didn't know the actual ending of the match i could be wrong but i believe not many people knew the actual ending of the match it was only a handful of people knew the actual ending of the match so what was going on nobody knew if you were staying or was you leaving what was going to be the ending nobody at home nobody in the crowd or even backstage yeah this was a once in a lifetime thing so as the paper view started there was still not many people finished to the match that's my old bill and that's what makes this so much greater because not many people knew the real like who was going to win this match well let's talk about the match when cm punk came out ladies and gentlemen i get goosebumps just thinking about it after this video i'm gonna go watch that match probably the crowd this is one of the most intense crowds in wwe history it was it was all cm punk bro all cm punk bro for like 30 seconds before his music even hit the fans were just chanting cm punk cm punk and once his music hit it was deafening it was like if michael jordan just hit it i wish he could have shown like the actual footage i'm sure probably wwe would tripped out wanted to win the nba title but even then i don't think it would compare it was as loud as any wrestling crowd ever cm punk comes out in the iconic white best in the world shirt just looking like the biggest boss ever he's just soaking it in there's no commentary for the first 20 seconds the theme is blasting the fans are going absolutely mental they're singing along to the song cm punk chance breakout while the song's still playing they're so loud that they're overshadowing the song just inject this shit into my veins man it was it was just crazy and then it gets even better the music stops and he's sitting in the ring like he's a god and people are just worshiping him louder than are you here cm punk cm punk you have have some people in the rafters if sena wins we riot which i legitimately thought they were going to do if sena actually won that match oh my god and here's the thing they were like that the entire pay-per-view every time a match was done all you heard was cm punk cm all right we back camera died it in truly just something special the stars were just aligned for this man the fact that it was in chicago his contract was expiring no news was leaking and he was versing john sena his perfect antithesis it was perfect and then sena's music hits and you guys thought of the pop that punk i was insane while the booze that sena got were harder than anybody in wrestling history yep it was what the fuck it was like think of the ecw one night stand crowd on crack boon sena this was like some soccer ultra level stuff the song literally played for 0.5 seconds and the boos were already drowning out the music i got chills just thinking about it and the best part is when sena's walk into the ring there is no salute there's no patterning to the crowd he just means business he's in the ring he puts his belt in the air and he's just looking down no smiling all business sena punk versus john sena career on the line belt on the line if punk wins he leaves with the title nobody knew if the contract had been signed nobody knew what was happening the storyline was perfect the real-life situation was perfect the crowd was perfect and man this match was perfect these two were perfect for each other they're total opposites and then they won at it for 33 minutes putting on a classic one of the biggest matches in the history of the wwe i wish we could see some footage of it there were no weapons there was no crazy spots to be honest they just let the story do the talking and they just wrestled it was just different look most of the time you can predict the wwe most of the time there are rumors there's news and you can kind of figure out what was going to happen here nobody knew what was going to happen and you don't get that feeling option in professional wrestling it was crazy just back and forth and the longer it went the more intense it got the more hype it got the more everyone was just like what is going to happen was running through our minds and 25 minutes into the match the crowd was still as hot as it was in the beginning and both men were working they were trying their best both men were just putting in work there was a moment where punk was caught in the stf and everyone's like all right that's it type of punk to tap but no he didn't punk hit across body but sena caught him in mid air goes for the a a well punk counters he then goes to the gts sena even avoids that and puts them into the stf punk is so close to the ropes sena pulls them back and puts them in the stf again but sena punk somehow countered it to an anaconda seeing punk kicked out of two attitude adjustments the crowd was just shook 30 minutes in and it's still anybody's game such a fantastic man for 33 minutes they never lost any interest so punk hit sena with the gts but it hit his ribs and out his face which was a great touch because if it hit his face he would have been knocked out cold right kayfabe but no it hit his ribs so he rolled out and then here comes vince mcmanne with john loranitis and at this point everyone's just like oh man no don't do it please don't do the screw job finish don't do it don't screw everybody was thinking the Montreal screw job that's all people thought that's all people was thinking oh no not the Montreal screw job again over so sena goes back into the ring and he puts punk in stf and the devil vince mcmanne tries to do the screw job finish by signaling the timekeeper to ring the bell but no sena comes outside and runs up on vince he punches loranitis on the way there and he goes to vince and he says not this way sena runs back in the ring yeah punk with the gts yeah pin super sena one two three see him punk pin super sena clean in the middle of the ring and vince mcmanne just looks like he died on the inside yeah and the crowd is going insane like they had just won the world cup or the super bowl or whatever sporting event ever one of the loudest winning pops you will ever hear in the history of wrestling the impossible happened vince is shook punk is smiling he's grinning he has the title in his hands and everyone is just like what the hell punk actually won and in the commentary all you hear in one hour and 14 minutes see him punk is no longer an employee of the wwe oh my god so good this was so good it was one of those moments where time stood still vince gets the mic and he starts saying stop the music get alberto out here yeah earlier on in the show alberto del Rio won the money in the bank so the whole idea was well time for alberto to cash in and make him the champion and at this point all the fans are just like oh man they got us they bamboozled us they got us with the pop they got us with a shock but now alberto will win and screw our dreams up this is true and hearts slowly began breaking apart at this moment alberto is running to the ring it all made sense so comes out and see him punk kicks him in the face and boom see him punk grabs the title and runs out of the ring yeah he goes on to the barricade he's smiling at vince blows him a kiss legendary and the fans are going insane everyone's jumping and punk just runs through the crowd and that's how the show closes see him punk walking through his hometown crowd with the wwe championship when one hour and 14 minutes or so was going to become a free agent who was also the wwe champion what a scene what a moment vince looks like he's about to kill himself this is so what a match this is so good man probably the greatest ending to a paper view oh my god so good so how did this happen well during the show he had during the show see him punk signed a contract behind closed doors and nobody knew it never got leaked and they went out there and put on a masterpiece they tore the house down and ended the show in such a beautiful beautiful way what a moment what a storyline it was something that i don't think can ever happen again and it won't it was real it was authentic the stars were aligned well that's what made money the bank 2011 so iconic you had to have been watching this live week in week out to truly understand how special this was but i tried my best to explain it so go watch the full pay-per-view watch on this as well also the reason i didn't do a video on the summer of punk in 2011 well all the story telling that they executed so perfectly up until here let's just say they kind of ruined it after yeah they did because um well i really gotta say is somehow kevin ash was involved in this storyline that that was don't worry a future video is coming soon yeah the summer of punk should have been so much better they ruined that they ruined it they they really did ruin it um but outside of that man this just brought back so many good memories one of if not the best money in the bank pay-per-view of all time man so i am definitely after i finish editing this video i am going to go watch that match again because it's just one of those matches you can go back and watch again and enjoy like you did the very first time so comment down below let me know did this match potentially get you back in the wrestling like it did for me this match brought my love for wrestling back again well this not this match let me say did c.m. punk dropping that legendary pipe bomb this epic storytelling between him and johnson it did get you back in the wrestling well into wwe wrestling like it did for me because it definitely did this was the spark that i needed to see in wrestling because at the time it got pretty stale to me so comment down below let me know i would love your thoughts and opinions on this will be live streaming money in a bank this sunday so make sure you guys are there to watch we're gonna enjoy watching money in the bank this year but i appreciate all the love and support roll to 50k appreciate y'all kicking with me and i'll see y'all in the next one peace


What's up guys welcome to the vlog so today what we're gonna be focusing on is cutting longer hair I've got a live model. She's got super long hair, and it's really really fine So I want to show you guys how to build volume keep the structure in the base And then we're gonna do a really cool blowout with a round brush at the end So this video is packed with tips I think you guys are gonna use right away in the salon Hope you like the video here we go. Alright guys, so we're gonna start off our sectioning now The sectioning is very simple for this cut because our model has fine hair So I go around I go right along the parietal ridge Then I do a straight line just to cut off mid crown and then I go back down parietal ridge Creating a rectangle shape on the top of the head. I twist that away We call that a zoo not twist it away, and I put a clip in it keep it nice and tight That is actually the most important section that we're gonna cut today Now what I go through and when I cut the underneath because she has really fine hair You can see that's all the density that she has sorry that the camera angle is a little dark But just know that I'm cutting a direct like a straight line in the back of her head shape So nothing complicated here just combing everything nice and clean Make sure that you do multiple different passes with the comb Especially when you're combing everything down and cutting it to make sure that you have all the hair So I cut a nice flat blunt line in the back now I don't want to layer any of that underneath hair because of the fact that it's so fine already So if I layer that I'm gonna take the density away, and it's gonna look really stringy in the end result So now I focus on my rectangle what I do is I take Horizontal sections across the top. I make sure I stay right on that parietal ridge area I bring it down, and then I give it a twist at my desired length So what I wanted to do is create kind of a little face frame Technique or face frame for her just to give her that volume that movement And I wanted to keep it a little bit longer to keep that density with fine hair I don't want to go too short right here in the face frame area So I bring the hair down and then the reason I do that little twist with my finger Which is gonna create a really nice round softness to the layers help it kind of follow the head shape So I continue that all the way through that top section over directing everything to that stationary guide now Pulmitral sent me these magic tide collections you can get in pulmitral salons now so I'm gonna choose a few products from that I'm also gonna add in the thicken up which is a styling liquid that we're gonna place in the hair to create that volume and really blow up that cuticle Also Danielle's doing the blow-dry and what I want you guys to really focus on is her elevation when she does her round brushing So she got the pulmitral neuro blow dryer.  It's also got really nice grips on it So if you have product on your hands, you don't slip. I love these round brushes They are available on freesaloneducation.com. So Danielle's going through she's blow-drying everything back But she's also working to get a lot of movement and flexibility In the hair so you'll see her she kind of works the The truck and trailer method with the blow dryer so she's got the nozzle Right up to the to the brush She lifts the hair to give it that elevation and she'll do the front half of it And then she also goes through and hits the back But the last pass she does with the brush is always the one that she the direction she wants the hair to go So the last pass is always gonna be Kind of round brushed back the one thing I really want you guys to get out of this video is the fact that I did kind of Brought everything forward to cut it to create the layering. I wanted to create a face-ramed effect Bring everything forward and cutting it makes it shorter in the front longer towards the back So it pushes those layers a little bit longer a little higher density in the back for the fine hair And then when Danielle goes through and she round brushes, she's mimicking my haircut So she's basically taking everything and blow drying it off of the face because that's how we wanted the haircut to be So you can see you can see all the layers the movement the body that we're putting into it But this isn't how it should end guys If you just wanted to do a round brush you can do it But we want to go through and do a curling iron because of the fact that when you have fine hair and you want body Then you need to go through and add a little bit of wave to it just to build it up even more So you can see that that haircut definitely helped It was definitely an assistant to the fact that she has fine hair, but it's not the it's not the complete answer in a haircut It's all about how you style the hair. So Danielle goes through same thing. She works the iron.  She goes through she curls it now it's pretty tight curls and if you are a product of let's say the 80s or anything like that tight curls might freak you out the cool thing about this style when I was watching Danielle at the Very end she goes through with this brush she gives uses a paddle brush And she brushes through the hair and it really just brings the style to life You can see the haircut come to life and also we did color her hair as well So Brian did a color on her that's gonna be a separate video coming out soon So you guys will get to see that transformation as well, but you could see what the waves do how much volume we get with this style I hope you guys liked the video definitely.

Hi everyone, Joe for JasperJasperysCaseRakes.com, coming at you with 21-22 Panini Crown Royale Basketball Asia Edition, 10 box, half case, pick your team number two. I think those red parallels are the ones that are exclusive to this set. Autographs are fewer and far between, yeah, it doesn't say red parallels. Autographs are fewer and far between here. And there's a thousand dollar break credit giveaway if you follow the instructions right there. We'll do that randomizer at the end. Big thanks everybody here for making this happen. Congrats to the people who won their spots. And it was Nick Nappy with the last two spots getting that double last spot mojo. Good luck everybody. We'll open up these five box at a time right here. Yeah, if that order wasn't confirmed, Michael, then that charge will end up never going through. I think it'll just show up as like a pending transaction, but it'll never become a transaction. Okie doke. Let's see what we got. Cade Cunningham die cut, nice. Got Paul George and rookie royalty Quentin Grimes. Sometimes there's a number, but they'll be right there, but that's not numbered. All cards shipped though. Isaiah Livers, so these are the red parallels. Nice Cade Cunningham, just a base die cut that's going to be for Sean Healy and Detroit. Yeah, there you go. Yeah, Rex is saying that happened to him before and then it was gone the next day. Ray, what's going on? There's another Cade Cunningham, rookie royalty. Nice. Cool looking die cut, another one for Sean and Detroit. Franz Wagner rookie card for Orlando, that's for Nick.  That's for Charlotte, that's for Steve Birch. There's LeBron James and a Scotty Barnes, rookie royalty die cut. Not numbered, I don't see a number on here, but that's a nice one for the Raptors. It's going to be Aaron with the Raptors. A lot of times a number ends up right here. That's not blind, but nice red parallel, looks really cool, your rookie of the year. LeBron signed that big extension with the Lakers. Still positioning himself, I think, to see if he can maybe play a year with his son. A lot of boxes, but not a lot of cards. Davion Mitchell, Jalen Brown, Anthony Davis, another Franz Wagner, Jamal Murray, another snow globe here. Kevin DeRan, where's Kevin DeRan going to go? When's that saga going to be behind us? Another Franz Wagner for Orlando, that's going to go to Nick. This is a Davion Mitchell rookie card. It's got a lot of upside here for the Kings. With Sacktown, Bay Area and Backdown. Got some Kaminga, Joshua Primo, and we got a gold rookie royalty 8 out of 10. That's Isaiah Jackson for the Pacers. Patrick with Indiana. Nice low number there. Kaminga goes to the Warriors also for Patrick. These test of time inserts, I think, look really cool. They're not numbered though.  Just a base, but still, his rookie card for Nicholas S. Colin Sexton and Miles McBride flipped around because it's an autograph.  That's Nico with the Knicks. All right, there you go, gang. That's the break. Let's give away some money, money, money, money. All right, so you got to buy at least an even number of teams. Half of that number becomes entries for break credit. So let's get everybody's names here. Alphabetized by your first names. And Aaron, you got six teams. That's three entries. Nick bought two, that's an entry. Nicholas bought two, that's an entry. Nico bought six, that's three entries. Patrick with four teams, that's two entries. Richard with four teams, that's two entries. Ben, I'll explain that as soon as I finish this up. Sean with two teams, that's an entry. Steve Bird, you got three, but the purpose of the promo, two count, still an entry. All right, so let me just spot check this really quick. I got Aaron's spot. I got Nicholas N's spot. And I got Nick S's spot. Nico's spot. Patrick. Richard. Sean H. No, Steve Bird actually got four teams. Seriously, that's just why I do this check. That's two entries.

You can't just pray the gay away and I highly advise you not to do something like that Hey, I'm Carissa was a part of the LGBTQ community for 11 years three of that I Identified as trans non-binary until I came to know the Lord and he changed my life It's not like I just snap my fingers and boom my detransitioned and I look like this person that I am today No, I gained a relationship with the Lord and over time learned his truths and started to make changes and Surrender those parts of myself. This is what I've been talking about for a long time It's about connection not about coercion when somebody is living in a lifestyle that you don't agree with or the Bible doesn't agree with It's not about condemning them and judging them where they're at But rather inviting them to the table so that they can get to know the true Jesus in light of his truth and his grace That doesn't mean compromising the truth and that doesn't mean watering down what the Bible says but rather we're inviting people to see Jesus in the fullness of his grace and his truth through that connection real change Happens not through coercion or judgment or condemnation follow for more Christ-centered content and help support my mission on patreon


So I was sitting here contemplating a channeling, it's a nice quiet beginning to the morning and just having my coffee and I could feel a woman's energy as far as who should I channel. There's a few people I would like to channel for myself today and let you watch and this person I didn't expect and it's somebody we haven't met before on above life channel also let's have a conversation with Doris Day come on in the sunshine she feels very joyful just perky happy sun like a ray of sunshine so I didn't do my traditional introduction so let me do that hi it's Bridget welcome to above life channel the purpose here as always is to inspire your spirit and to fill you with hope today we're going to have an after-life conversation with Doris Day that was cool how that kind of happened I like that that was kind of cool okay so why are you the celebrity that I'm connecting with today she says I'm known as the my reputation from my human experience from my lifetime she says is that of a girl next door and my most proudest accomplishment is my children my family I can see dogs around you lots of dogs around her yes animal lover yes Ms. Doris Day yes animal lover she says yes and I can see an image of your house one of your homes in Hollywood it looks like I think I've seen trying to think if my brain can recall I may have a memory an actual human memory of seeing a video or a vlog of your one of your homes in Hollywood I think maybe like one of those Hollywood home tour kind of vibe things like that she says it's it's possible it's possible she's showing me friends and then she says somebody Martin I don't know if it's Dean Martin somebody Martin Dean Martin or Martin and then she said somebody named Steve or Steven and then she shows me being in love with someone that didn't couldn't reciprocate or couldn't love her back the way she needed to be loved and not having hard feelings about that almost being it feels like like you guys are gonna just throw things at the screen go ahead and do that yell at me if you want but I don't know a lot about Doris Day I do know that she's like blonde I guess I think my brain that's how you look right now and that she's very sunny and very sweet and genuine she does really genuine like she honestly feels like a nice kind person like somebody that you could reach out to and ask for as a friend a good friend somebody that could would support you and be by your side and listen she feels like a good listener I do feel like she had a little bout of there's an energy of depression by her so I don't know if the depression was a temporary thing that she actually had a little bit of a depression but she couldn't say that because she's showing me that she the public persona had to be very perky perky is the word perky and perfect perfect a lot of intense pressure on her to be perfect and like she's showing me the way she stands and how much weight she gains is a really big deal and like the size of her waist had to be really small and like just like it's just really there's a lot of like she shows me very uptight and very tense at the core of the body like everything sucked in and really tight and posture and having to be a certain way she also shows me like I see a movie like a I don't know if this is a movie you guys because I'm clairvoyant so I see stuff imagery and I don't always understand what it means so you can fill in the blanks all right but I see she's showing me kind of like a like a 1950s scene I don't know if it's a movie or it's actually her life in the 50s with like cars parked kind of like I want to say like a scene from happy days because that's the only thing I could think of in my brain or a scene from the movie grease that kind of vibe I see that and like poodle skirts and that kind of vibe I see that does she dance this is gonna sound so stupid but did she dance and sing cuz I feel like she's multi-talented it feels like that she says oh she's like oh yes I just she's like oh just about everything she says I could spit on my head if you need me to that kind of a thing like they she says they really push you or pressure you in Hollywood to be very in the time that she was an actress she's saying an entertainer is what she's saying she says there's really a lot of pressure to be able to do all all of the things all of these things I'm getting this feeling of like a young like beauty queen or something like really pretty like I don't know if she got discovered super young like 16 or something like a beauty queen or at a state fair or something or a little like a high school picture or something but she just so like pure and wholesome and just perfect I'm also feeling like she maybe had an affair with a married man or she was in love with someone who was married to somebody else or ended up marrying somebody else almost like a Liz Taylor kind of vibe like I'm or I see Carrie Fisher her mom married to somebody Eddie Fisher like kind of a scenario like that you know how so her mom so okay this is gonna be weird stay with me all right so kind of they're trying to show me they're dealing with what they got which is me trying to figure this out so it feels like how Carrie Fisher was the child of Eddie Fisher and so her mom was in love with him but he was also in love with I think Elizabeth Taylor is what it was who almost like a triangle kind of a little bit kind of a thing like I'm feeling like Doris had some of that going on but not like scandalous like for her it almost feels like she had a baby and then he wasn't available or able to be part of their lives or something like I feel like she had two kids is there two or three I can't quite tell there may be two with one person and one with another maybe but once she had children it's like that's her whole life like just loved her kids that's what she saw me her devotion to her children but then I also see a military vibe so the man that she was in love with might have been in the military or the father of her children and I think it might be two different people the one that she's really in love with versus the father of children does this make sense you guys I know like I say I have to apologize Doris to above live channel because I she has to work with what I have as far as reference and understanding and so I understand that if you're a diehard Doris day fan that you're gonna be mad about this one but I'm doing the best I can I just want to get to know her all right so Doris so tell us about in reflection looking back upon your human life upon life in general all right life in general in reflection from an afterlife perspective what piece of advice would you give she says oh many she said many she says oh gosh you guys this beautiful she says forgive yourself fast forgiveness is the key to your peace she said forgive yourself fast like quickly like don't harbor self-blame self-guilt self-doubt that kind of thing she's like forgive yourself fast quickly forgive yourself quickly she says and then she says oh this is interesting she says to me that she it was easier for her to be tender and kind to others and to give them the benefit of forgiveness to to recognize that other people can make mistakes and to be forgiving of others but much much much more difficult to be forgiving of herself so that's just that's a great piece of advice what have you learned about the afterlife like what maybe what surprised you when you transitioned into the afterlife as now that you're an afterlife spirit what what surprises you about the afterlife how easy she says how easy it is to be she says how easy okay so she's she's trying to say it but I'm feeling I feel the energy more than I words can't describe ease she's saying like ease not easy as and oh it's hard it's it there's no kind of like ego mind challenges physical body challenges there's none of those kind of challenges that we're used to is kind of the vibe I'm getting from her but it's ease it's it's this sense of you feel she says you feel when you're dying or when you're aging and you're contemplating your own mortality your own death she says um it feels like and she says I had I had quite a bit of time to do that she says she must have lived a long life because she's like I had quite a bit of time to do that she says it it feels now there's so much of an an instant understanding of how hard we really are as people on ourselves we really make life hard she says we really make human people really make life difficult on themselves there's so much inner like torture she says like inner just picking away at yourself and and and and she says there's so much that we we pick up so much garbage that influences who who we are who who we know what we know of ourselves the goodness she says what we know of ourselves the good has a person and she says with this afterlife now understanding looking through this I want to say lens but she says through this like the sun energy this positive glowing supportive energy of not support positive it's like just hopeful just really uplifting energy she says the sad part is the saddest part Bridget she says the saddest part is that you don't really know that you don't really understand you you don't know you can't even begin to touch the the amazing beautiful ease that is in your life now that you you have now your spirit is in you now it is with you now it is always with you it is a part of you even when you are in in body she says with body even though it's interesting i never anybody say that even though you are with body your soul is very much alive and in a beautiful uplifting comfortable state of ease and it's it's sad that many of you like myself she says will not realize that until after you are not with body any longer so is that too late so when is it too late for us at that time is it like too late for us to she says in the traditional structure of time there isn't a time so there's not really a lateness about it that's an assumption that you arrive at it like a destination or a point of connection like a point it's almost like she says there's not a lateness there isn't that that doesn't exist she says for me for afterlife but your meaning the answer to the meaning of what you're asking is yes you have had your chance in that particular lens or that particular fold of your lifetime and it's over it's it's over with that body and in the presence of those relationships and those those occupations and those those locations the places you lived the people you knew the influence you had it's over it's over okay that feels kind of like wow okay it's like just done it's done so so with your advice to humans then if we forgive ourselves quick what does that give us or provide us in relation to this perspective about our soul being at ease and being with us and that we have access to that at all times does forgiveness relate to that or connect that in some way yes she said yes the the the piece of the resistance the the self-imposed blocks and barriers you have to your own happiness she said is human it's a human it's perfectly acceptable human construct it's it's something the mind puts in place and that your that the society and relationships that you have around you give you affirmations of and affirm for you and so of course you believe it it's not it's not that you're being tricked or manipulated it's just a common shared viewpoint she says vantage point and yet there really is no way to explain to you in in words how miraculous it is that your spirit is with you now and what it could do for your body and for for your heart your emotions your relationships your your mind to allow your mind to soften and not be so on guard like attention on guard she says attention on guard all the time and she says life could be so much more full it could be fuller for you if you only knew just a small part of or portion of what your soul is ready to do for you with you because of you so that's the sunshine energy she brings in is the message about our soul and how it is on the ready to serve us that's amazing how do you recommend that we do that as people how do you how can we as human beings like do you have any insight scoop on that how can we connect with our spirits better how can we allow ourselves to soften to our own resistance within us i mean it seems like mindset it seems like the ego mind is really tough and we've been through a lot collectively in our lifetimes now and our hearts and our empathy our empath channels are pretty much like burned out like what do you can you give us any tools or tips or insight okay she says your positive attitude she said your attitude is directly connected to your well being so if you are well if you are doing the things the the patterns the routines the rituals is kind of what i see like the patterns if you're doing the things if you have a routine she says that is is truly caring about yourself that's the best place to start that is the the the essential part that that is needed in order for you to flourish and and to understand all that is available to you caring for yourself so this is different than self-care yes it's not it's not like a rhetoric you guys she's not saying self-care self-care she's saying caring for yourself like genuinely having a love for yourself that promotes a routine that gives you constant opportunity to to and it's almost like she's saying to uplift yourself she she doesn't say choose a better mood or change your attitude or energy she doesn't say that she says to uplift yourself she uses words like uplift positive and i mean she says gratitude being grateful for yourself and for the life that you have right now and that's not to say you settle into it she says it's not about accepting it and being just okay with how things are it's about she says having gratitude for for the it she says it's going to sound very cliche but for the little things for the fact that you have fingers and that you can see even if you need glasses like i do she's like even if you need glasses and she's showing me like pain in her legs and later on in her life i don't know if she was actually in a wheelchair she looks old when she died um i mean no offense beautiful woman beautiful spirit um but she looks older she's rubbing her legs and she's saying even this even from this view even all the things that happen to you if you can wake up in the morning and look at the blue sky and have an appreciation for the fresh air or the colors of the sky or the shapes of the clouds or the sun the feeling of the sun just warming the golden sun warming your face she says that will get you leaps and bounds closer to what it is that you need what it is that you want it will let you grow with and toward your spirit and that's what you want that's what you really want wow okay miss doris day ladies and gentlemen
