I'm in the business of helping people become better adapted to modern stress, which basically means they're able to maintain your center right in as conditions all around you increase in chaos. You actually drop in more deeply because you have the ability to discern. Like, is this life and death for me, or is this an opportunity for me to, in your case, share the skills that you have inherently. I'm in the same way, like I've been out rock climbing and watched somebody fall and dislocate a leg, and I walk over and I'm like, okay, get them stable. Then we put their leg back into position. They're like, how did you do that? 24:10 – That is actually stress release and recovery. So the emotion, like a person like you, I'm actually very similar in the way. I can show up in an emergency or in someone's life that is going through chronic issues, like disease. I can show up with dozens of them around and so I'm just serving, serving, serving, serving, serving. I can stay really centered and grounded, because it's what lights me up. This is what my nervous system, what I've groomed it to do. 53:50 – We teach people how to do this and teach movement. It's called EDU Immersion, a practical spinal maintenance. Have a happy spine, calm, and I give out a free workshop on it. So you'll learn about stress, the neurophysiology of stress, and then how to work with your system with movement. So I mentioned, whenever you stress out, you always lateralize into one hemisphere. Well, what's beautiful about the body is that left hemisphere controls right side of the body and vice versa. So if I have a movement system that crosses my midline regularly, and what happens is it forces cross modal communication in the two hemispheres. So now those hemispheres are starting to compare data and go, wait, why are we in a stress state right now? You know based on what we're seeing right now, there's no bear out there. So you get to create congruence between the two hemispheres, the brain waves slow down into alpha and theta in the body to get that parasympathetic sympathetic balance. So that's really why we have an online course for that as well, called Moving Back Into Balance. 01:...
