00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:02,520
Speaker 1: Stream thinking. It's learning how to trust what is in

2
00:00:02,560 --> 00:00:04,879
your present place of right now now. To get there

3
00:00:04,919 --> 00:00:07,559
requires practice. Here's what I do one sheet a day,

4
00:00:07,839 --> 00:00:10,400
just ten minutes, write about whatever is moving through your

5
00:00:10,439 --> 00:00:14,320
presence of all things right now, with absolutely no judgment.

6
00:00:14,759 --> 00:00:18,000
Stream thinking sharpens your skills as a listener, a communicator,

7
00:00:18,039 --> 00:00:21,719
and an activator. Learning how to trust what is right now.

8
00:00:21,920 --> 00:00:25,359
This is stream thinking today. We're reading from October nineteenth,

9
00:00:25,359 --> 00:00:28,719
twenty twenty four. Why does it feel like more people

10
00:00:28,760 --> 00:00:32,000
are suffering from the cold and flu? Is it a

11
00:00:32,039 --> 00:00:35,880
cold or is it allergies? The experts say it's tough

12
00:00:35,880 --> 00:00:39,280
to tell the difference, mainly because they share the same symptoms.

13
00:00:39,759 --> 00:00:43,240
The average cold lasts three to fourteen days. Allergies last

14
00:00:43,520 --> 00:00:46,479
months and don't come with a fever, sore throat, and

15
00:00:46,520 --> 00:00:50,640
body aches. That's a cold. Allergy symptoms don't build up,

16
00:00:50,920 --> 00:00:54,439
You're instantly hit by them. Allergies also happen throughout the year.

17
00:00:55,079 --> 00:00:58,000
Doctors say that allergies are more common today than any

18
00:00:58,039 --> 00:01:01,359
other time. Warmer temperatures and the environment are to blame

19
00:01:01,399 --> 00:01:04,599
for this. The pollen season has been extended, causing the

20
00:01:04,640 --> 00:01:08,159
human to have multiple reactions. So what is the best

21
00:01:08,159 --> 00:01:11,280
way to protect yourself from all of these allergies. We're

22
00:01:11,319 --> 00:01:17,040
going to ask chat GPT coming up next. Hey, welcome

23
00:01:17,040 --> 00:01:20,040
back to stream thinking. The subject today allergies and what

24
00:01:20,159 --> 00:01:23,239
is the best way to take care of those allergies

25
00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:25,680
and find peace in your life. So we thought let's

26
00:01:25,719 --> 00:01:30,079
go ahead and ask chat GPT when allergies steal your piece?

27
00:01:30,159 --> 00:01:32,920
Allergies don't just mess around with your sinuses. They actually

28
00:01:32,920 --> 00:01:34,799
mess around with your mood, your sleep, as well as

29
00:01:34,799 --> 00:01:37,640
your focus and peace of mind. What triggers you is

30
00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:40,120
the number one thing that you should do. You can't

31
00:01:40,159 --> 00:01:43,519
fight what you don't understand. The goal is to get tested,

32
00:01:43,920 --> 00:01:46,760
know if it's pollen, mold, pet dander or something else.

33
00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:50,200
Use apps like pollen dot com to check daily counts.

34
00:01:50,719 --> 00:01:55,040
Adjust your day, exercise indoors out of the high pollend area.

35
00:01:55,799 --> 00:01:58,879
Number two, turn your home into a piece zone. Your

36
00:01:58,920 --> 00:02:02,599
space should be your real not your enemy. Use HEPA

37
00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:07,079
filters and purifiers, wash your bed sheets weekly in hot water,

38
00:02:07,159 --> 00:02:12,199
and keep those windows closed. Number three go natural, but smart.

39
00:02:12,680 --> 00:02:15,520
Peace doesn't have to be in a pill bottle. Local

40
00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:19,199
honey is very important, so are herbal teas. Number four,

41
00:02:19,639 --> 00:02:24,680
mindfulness over misery. Allergies are loud. Peace has to be louder.

42
00:02:25,199 --> 00:02:28,360
Deep breathing, you've got to practice that as often as possible.

43
00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:33,000
It is perfect exercising for your nostrils, meditation and calming,

44
00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:37,879
natural sounds and stretch that is so important. You've got

45
00:02:37,919 --> 00:02:42,199
to move your body in closing. According to chat GPT,

46
00:02:42,759 --> 00:02:46,080
finding peace when you've got allergies isn't about ignoring the problem.

47
00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:48,759
It's about building the system to work with your body,

48
00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:52,240
not against it. Allergies might be seasonal, but peace can

49
00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:56,400
be every single day. I'm Marrow and that's stream thinking.
