00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:03.259
Chris Evergreen here. Welcome to your daily goodwill

00:00:03.259 --> 00:00:07.280
for Sunday, December 21st. Today's little piece

00:00:07.280 --> 00:00:10.279
of helpful advice is for the folks who are carrying

00:00:10.279 --> 00:00:14.919
a lot, quietly. The ones who show up, keep the

00:00:14.919 --> 00:00:18.480
peace, keep the plans moving, and somehow forget

00:00:18.480 --> 00:00:21.559
they're a person in the middle of it all. So

00:00:21.559 --> 00:00:24.899
here's your mission for today. Do a pressure

00:00:24.899 --> 00:00:29.399
release check -in, out loud. Say this sentence

00:00:29.399 --> 00:00:34.799
even if you whisper it. Right now I feel… because…

00:00:34.799 --> 00:00:39.619
No fixing, no judging, no I shouldn't feel this

00:00:39.619 --> 00:00:43.859
way. Just naming it. Because when you name a

00:00:43.859 --> 00:00:47.420
feeling, it stops being a fog and becomes a thing

00:00:47.420 --> 00:00:51.060
you can hold. And once you can hold it, you can

00:00:51.060 --> 00:00:55.280
set it down for a minute. Then do one small reset

00:00:55.280 --> 00:01:00.439
that tells your body… We're safe. Pick one. Take

00:01:00.439 --> 00:01:04.620
10 slow breaths. Drink a full glass of water.

00:01:05.159 --> 00:01:08.739
Step outside for 60 seconds and look at the sky.

00:01:09.340 --> 00:01:13.200
Or put your hand on your chest and just stay

00:01:13.200 --> 00:01:16.239
there for a moment. Like you're reminding yourself

00:01:16.239 --> 00:01:20.180
you're here. And if you're around other people

00:01:20.180 --> 00:01:23.920
today, here's a kindness that costs almost nothing

00:01:23.920 --> 00:01:28.950
and means a lot. Ask someone, what's one thing

00:01:28.950 --> 00:01:32.450
you're looking forward to this week? It's a gentle

00:01:32.450 --> 00:01:36.010
question. It gives the brain a little light to

00:01:36.010 --> 00:01:40.310
aim at. That's your daily goodwill for Sunday,

00:01:40.409 --> 00:01:44.890
December 21st. You don't have to earn rest. You're

00:01:44.890 --> 00:01:47.370
allowed to have it. Talk soon.
