That was really helpful, practical advice. I really like finding the news versus letting it find you. I, cause I, I've personally been struggling with that too. And I really, really like that.

When you don't do the phone first thing, you feel better.

You know, I don't meditate. It's too hard for me. But with calm, I actually am able to, I do it because that's what meditating is. It's, you know, breath work and thinking about, you know, clearing your mind. But I really need the calm up. So that's so interesting. We can actually dive in right there.

No, I wasn't.

No, I wasn't.

Yeah. Wow. No, it's so true. That's my favorite part of the sleeping meditation that I do from the Calm app is like breathe in, you know, then hold and breathe out. And it's it's crazy the power of breath, because even just doing those two breaths now did calm me down, kind of refocus like I was running from something. I'm kind of, you know, mine's all over the place.

As usual, we're all doing a million things. And we don't think about breathing that much. And we don't focus on it, but it's incredible the power of just a few breaths that can transform your moment.

Like there's this trend on social media right now where people are like, unfortunately, my brain can no longer tell the difference between getting an email and being chased by a bear. Yeah. And it's like, I totally feel that, you know, and I feel like our nervous systems are kind of all out of whack. We're looking at the phone all the time. We're obsessed with the news updates and everything.

And it's like, and you're right. And usually we're sitting in a car or we're sitting in our desk or whatever. And you start to freak out and then you just go, okay, no, I'm here. I'm going to do three breaths and I'm going to move on. On that point, I do want to ask you, There is just 24-7 news. It's a bombardment. A lot of negativity.

And I know a lot of people in my community are feeling super, super overwhelmed right now. So aside from intentional breathing, meditation... How would you suggest people dose themselves on the news? Or how do you personally filter the information you receive so that you're informed but you're not freaking out?
