Hello, hello, and welcome to the Borealis

Unknown: 00:00:33

experience. I'm your host Aurora. And I'm very happy to be

Unknown: 00:00:37

spending some time with you today. It is Friday. And yeah, I

Unknown: 00:00:43

hope you have a good weekend ahead of you. I know. For some

Unknown: 00:00:49

people, it's the weekend, no work all week long. But maybe by

Unknown: 00:00:56

now you find a hobby.

Unknown: 00:00:59

Sorry, found a hobby, or

Unknown: 00:01:03

are okay with the COVID situation. It's very tough on

Unknown: 00:01:08

all of us, no matter where you're at. So just a reminder

Unknown: 00:01:12

that you're not alone in this. We're in this together.

Unknown: 00:01:18

Yeah, I hope you enjoyed my little intro here. Today's

Unknown: 00:01:21

episode is about appreciation. Do you truly appreciate

Unknown: 00:01:28

things live, everything you have.

Unknown: 00:01:35

A friend of mine contacted me today, and said she really tries

Unknown: 00:01:41

to appreciate drinking water now. And when she has a shower,

Unknown: 00:01:44

then she really appreciates the water and

Unknown: 00:01:51

uses a lotion or oil afterwards.

Unknown: 00:01:55

To feel good and her skin. And I really encourage people to do

Unknown: 00:02:00

that more and more because it's not always on your partner to

Unknown: 00:02:08

apply physical touch nonsexual physical touch. And if you're

Unknown: 00:02:13

single, then it's especially important that you know how to

Unknown: 00:02:18

take really good care of your body.

Unknown: 00:02:22

So drinking water on a regular and then not just chucking it

Unknown: 00:02:26

around, and not just doing it because the doctor told you to

Unknown: 00:02:31

drink those three liters a day. But to really

Unknown: 00:02:37

see that this is a precious material.

Unknown: 00:02:43

Do you say material, maybe not an English

Unknown: 00:02:47

and it is going to nourish your body, it's going to make your

Unknown: 00:02:51

heart function, your lungs function, your kidneys function,

Unknown: 00:02:56

and your body is going to make beautiful cells out of that

Unknown: 00:03:00

water and keep you healthy and in balance.

Unknown: 00:03:05

And when it comes to the shower, I just got reminded today that

Unknown: 00:03:10

so often we just during the day, wash our hands, have a shower,

Unknown: 00:03:15

rub soap on, wash it off. Maybe anon COVID times get a hug from

Unknown: 00:03:22

a friend or a partner. You have sex with your partner. But do

Unknown: 00:03:28

you really take care of your skin and really feel and touch

Unknown: 00:03:33

your body at times. I think we all don't do that enough in a

Unknown: 00:03:37

non sexual way. And maybe you can think of it more often and

Unknown: 00:03:43

really appreciate your beautiful hands, your forearms, your

Unknown: 00:03:47

biceps, your triceps and your back. Give yourself a little bag

Unknown: 00:03:53

right up there with some oil, some

Unknown: 00:03:57

body lotion.

Unknown: 00:04:00

And then, of course going for walks and inhaling fresh air and

Unknown: 00:04:05

really filling up your lungs with that beautiful oxygen that

Unknown: 00:04:10

is also nourishing your air every being.

Unknown: 00:04:16

And then when it comes to our relationships, do you really

Unknown: 00:04:20

truly appreciate the people that are in your life that you love?

Unknown: 00:04:27

Do you make eye contact with them? Do you ask them questions

Unknown: 00:04:31

that go beyond how was your day? And can you do this or that for

Unknown: 00:04:36

me? Do you listen to them? Maybe do you

Unknown: 00:04:42

treat them with a massage or beautiful music or something?

Unknown: 00:04:49

Like when we think about the five senses, whatever you can do

Unknown: 00:04:53

to I don't want to say stimulate the other senses but to

Unknown: 00:05:00

To

Unknown: 00:05:01

bring something good to your partners or friends,

Unknown: 00:05:07

life,

Unknown: 00:05:09

then think about the five senses, maybe you can cook well,

Unknown: 00:05:14

and you're awesome at preparing meals, maybe you are a musician,

Unknown: 00:05:20

and you can play beautiful music, and you totally

Unknown: 00:05:25

underestimate how touching it is to play music for another

Unknown: 00:05:29

person.

Unknown: 00:05:31

Maybe you are an artist, or you are totally handsome, pretty

Unknown: 00:05:37

lady, and you can just

Unknown: 00:05:41

Yeah, stimulate their visual sense.

Unknown: 00:05:47

And then physical touch is also very powerful. You can give a

Unknown: 00:05:53

hand rub a foot rub

Unknown: 00:05:56

a bad group.

Unknown: 00:05:59

And,

Unknown: 00:06:00

yeah, so sometimes we're so caught up in trying to make

Unknown: 00:06:06

ourselves good. And we forget that doing someone, somebody

Unknown: 00:06:10

else something good, does us good, as well, because we're

Unknown: 00:06:15

herd animals, and we need each other. And when the other is

Unknown: 00:06:19

doing well, it usually positively affects us as well.

Unknown: 00:06:27

And then we have the fifth sense, the scent.

Unknown: 00:06:37

I've only discovered that recently. Actually, I know

Unknown: 00:06:40

perfumes are awesome and make you feel great after a shower.

Unknown: 00:06:44

But to have essential oils,

Unknown: 00:06:49

do you different kinds of sense to when you eat, really eat with

Unknown: 00:06:54

all your senses and really smell your food, really smell that

Unknown: 00:06:58

orange before you bite into it, that pineapple.

Unknown: 00:07:03

It really changes your whole experience. So if you have like

Unknown: 00:07:09

a favorite scent, like let's say mint, eucalyptus or oregano, go

Unknown: 00:07:15

and get yourself a little bottle of that essential oil, and

Unknown: 00:07:19

stimulate laid your

Unknown: 00:07:23

scent sense at times. And it's really, really a beautiful way

Unknown: 00:07:29

to connect with yourself and, and to feel good.

Unknown: 00:07:34

What I really

Unknown: 00:07:36

want to emphasize here is that appreciation is so much more

Unknown: 00:07:40

important than dissecting and analyzing with the mind. What I

Unknown: 00:07:45

find most annoying is when you sit at the table and you cook

Unknown: 00:07:48

something and all the person is interested in is the recipe and

Unknown: 00:07:53

what ingredients are in there. And we have to dissect

Unknown: 00:07:58

everything to the to the ends degree. And those people usually

Unknown: 00:08:02

don't know me because I cook and bake pretty much everything

Unknown: 00:08:05

without recipe, I take it as a guideline and then throw it into

Unknown: 00:08:09

a corner. When I eat when I want to taste something, then I do it

Unknown: 00:08:15

with all my senses with my fingers, and so on. And I truly

Unknown: 00:08:21

enjoy the moment and I feel too much were distracted

Unknown: 00:08:27

with our phones or really want to know into the details. What

Unknown: 00:08:34

was going on with that food before we eat it instead of just

Unknown: 00:08:38

trusting us from for me it's a trust issue when someone has to

Unknown: 00:08:43

know every little detail about the food that I put on the

Unknown: 00:08:46

table.

Unknown: 00:08:48

Except when it comes to dietary needs that I know beforehand if

Unknown: 00:08:52

you're gluten free or lactose free or vegan or whatever. But

Unknown: 00:08:57

as soon as I know that just shut up and enjoy.

Unknown: 00:09:02

And the same goes for your partner. Sometimes we fatigue or

Unknown: 00:09:07

partners with questions and we want to know and we want them to

Unknown: 00:09:13

talk and think that that is listening and taking care of a

Unknown: 00:09:17

partner. But sometimes we just have to feel like does that

Unknown: 00:09:21

person really want to talk right now? Do they want to open up to

Unknown: 00:09:25

me? Or do they just enjoy my company and want to be quiet?

Unknown: 00:09:30

Because being able to be quiet with someone to appreciate

Unknown: 00:09:35

silence

Unknown: 00:09:37

to gaze into each other's eyes. Without it being awkward, is so

Unknown: 00:09:44

so precious and very, very intimate. It is a beautiful way

Unknown: 00:09:49

to connect. And to be silent at times is way more powerful than

Unknown: 00:09:58

to wanting to analyze

Unknown: 00:10:00

No and wanting and desiring and expecting and nagging.

Unknown: 00:10:09

Yes. So appreciation is usually silent and involves all senses.

Unknown: 00:10:17

So what I encourage you to do now is to go out into this world

Unknown: 00:10:23

or to stay at home and to observe yourself how much you

Unknown: 00:10:28

were appreciating stuff up until now, and how much of a beautiful

Unknown: 00:10:33

experience you can add to your life now, with those simple

Unknown: 00:10:38

little life hacks. Thank you so much for listening to the

Unknown: 00:10:42

Borealis experience. I'm your host Aurora, and I'll be out

Unknown: 00:10:47

there for you tomorrow again, thanks for being here.
