Hectic.

And it's getting hectic right now.
00:00:36.134 --> 00:00:37.454
It is so hectic.
00:00:37.694 --> 00:00:41.433
It just feels like self care can be this big thing that we make it.
00:00:41.444 --> 00:00:44.103
We have to do this all huge time consuming.
00:00:44.103 --> 00:00:45.823
Yeah, it needs to be on the calendar.
00:00:45.823 --> 00:00:47.124
Bougie.
00:00:47.124 --> 00:00:47.143
Yeah,
00:00:47.143 --> 00:00:47.334
spend

com.
00:01:01.822 --> 00:01:02.832
Have you ever had
00:01:02.841 --> 00:01:03.921
these thoughts?
00:01:04.061 --> 00:01:06.281
What exactly is micro self care?
00:01:06.671 --> 00:01:10.361
How can I incorporate micro self care into my hectic workday?
00:01:10.682 --> 00:01:14.691
Can you suggest a quick self care activity for a busy mom?
00:01:15.221 --> 00:01:19.492
I'm too tired for self care after work or after my day.
00:01:19.902 --> 00:01:20.891
What can I do?
00:01:21.501 --> 00:01:25.292
What are some examples of emotional micro self care?
00:01:25.871 --> 00:01:29.981
Is it possible to practice self care in the workplace during my workday?
00:01:30.031 --> 00:01:31.031
Yes, it is actually.
00:01:31.031 --> 00:01:31.701
I've got a couple.
00:01:32.531 --> 00:01:33.971
How can I remember to practice
00:01:33.981 --> 00:01:34.522
self care
00:01:34.522 --> 00:01:35.242
when I'm busy?
00:01:35.691 --> 00:01:38.542
Can micro self care help with my stress?
00:01:39.012 --> 00:01:41.012
What if I feel guilty taking time for
00:01:41.012 --> 00:01:41.762
myself?
00:01:42.171 --> 00:01:44.822
How can I make micro self care a habit?
00:01:45.402 --> 00:01:46.341
I like that.
00:01:46.391 --> 00:01:47.572
Let's make it a habit.
00:01:47.751 --> 00:01:48.552
Let's do it.
00:01:49.102 --> 00:01:52.091
So let's start with defining micro self care.
00:01:52.471 --> 00:01:53.781
So what is it, Jess?
00:01:54.302 --> 00:02:03.111
Micro self care is about the small, manageable self care practices that we can fit into even our busiest of days.
00:02:03.481 --> 00:02:12.801
These aren't hour long meditations, it's not spa days, it's not two hour bubble bath, but they're little things that take a minute to do.
00:02:13.282 --> 00:02:18.731
To breathe deeply, stretching, or even savoring a cup of tea without distraction.
00:02:18.762 --> 00:02:20.901
Oh, gosh, I love some good tea in the winter.
00:02:21.442 --> 00:02:21.921
I do.
00:02:22.162 --> 00:02:24.542
I love hot cocoa, especially during the winter.
00:02:24.641 --> 00:02:27.002
Or an apple cider, like warm apple cider.
00:02:27.342 --> 00:02:36.468
This is about breaking down self care into manageable, but bite sized, little mini bite sized pieces.
00:02:36.588 --> 00:02:38.519
I imagine those little tiny mini Snickers.
00:02:38.968 --> 00:02:41.389
I was imagining little tiny Reese's Pieces.
00:02:41.479 --> 00:02:42.139
Oh, how funny.
00:02:42.299 --> 00:02:43.188
Yours are even smaller.
00:02:43.188 --> 00:02:45.658
Mine's They have the mini Skittles.
00:02:45.739 --> 00:02:46.399
Have you seen them?
00:02:46.399 --> 00:02:48.818
They're like little tiny little little baby bite sized.
00:02:49.118 --> 00:02:49.329
Okay.
00:02:49.459 --> 00:02:49.618
Yeah.
00:02:50.019 --> 00:03:00.058
For example, if you're swamped with work and only have a minute, you can do a quick grounding exercise or a quick breathing technique to help center yourself.
00:03:00.609 --> 00:03:10.455
And these things, while many might not seem like a lot at first, But like we've said with anything in life, small things add up to big things.
00:03:10.622 --> 00:03:14.412
And with those things, you feel more balanced and you feel more present.
00:03:14.611 --> 00:03:19.542
Oh, that's like, when you're trying to get your steps in, you can park a little further away.
00:03:19.752 --> 00:03:27.921
So that way, instead of getting that, you walk a little bit more or you're like, let's do a walking meeting because I need to get my steps in today versus sitting.
00:03:27.921 --> 00:03:30.562
And so it's just adding little, oops, I'm hitting things today.
00:03:30.861 --> 00:03:33.141
It's just adding little pieces over and over.
00:03:33.192 --> 00:03:33.512
Okay.
00:03:33.521 --> 00:03:43.342
This Microsoft Care, it became really popular and it's becoming really popular because most of us are so busy and so fast paced and full of distractions.
00:03:43.701 --> 00:03:49.342
Do you know how many times I hear, I hate to say this, but COVID was really good for me.
00:03:49.701 --> 00:03:53.882
Yeah, because people took time to be with themselves.
00:03:53.931 --> 00:03:57.451
Yes, they got to go on walks They weren't forced to go do all this stuff.
00:03:57.451 --> 00:03:59.572
So I hear that so much
00:03:59.581 --> 00:04:16.471
Because like with smartphones and with social media, we're constantly like plugged in to things and many of us have that So many roles that we take on, whether at work, at home, socially, a mother, daughter, friend, whatever you are, it can feel overwhelming.
00:04:16.531 --> 00:04:21.521
Exactly, and so many people don't have time for the traditional self care.
00:04:21.790 --> 00:04:26.213
It's hard to take an afternoon off or do a long yoga class.
00:04:26.213 --> 00:04:46.562
In fact, I've got like three minutes sometimes in between clients and I will do a couple of stretches I can't do a whole hour But I will do stretches or I make sure that I get up and I walk around my kitchen island I literally will get out of my office, I'll go walk around my kitchen island, grab my cheese and my soda, and then I come back, but I make sure Your cheese stick.
00:04:46.562 --> 00:04:46.817
My cheese stick.
00:04:46.817 --> 00:04:47.872
Because that's all we're eating is
00:04:47.872 --> 00:04:48.911
a cheese stick.
00:04:49.771 --> 00:04:50.771
Cheese stick and a Diet Coke.
00:04:51.271 --> 00:04:52.541
It's better than nothing.
00:04:52.552 --> 00:04:55.228
That's the mindset that we have with this.
00:04:55.228 --> 00:04:55.711
It's protein.
00:04:55.711 --> 00:04:55.740
It's
00:04:55.740 --> 00:04:56.011
protein.
00:04:56.021 --> 00:04:58.690
And I can't have a huge meal in three minutes, so I can eat a cheese stick.
00:04:58.940 --> 00:04:59.620
But I'll do it.
00:04:59.735 --> 00:05:12.375
And I go the long way, or if I really need to walk, I'll also go around the dining room table, and then I come back, so A, I've gotten some steps, I've got a little bit of movement, and I'm not just stuck there, and so it's about adding these little things
00:05:12.375 --> 00:05:12.826
up.
00:05:13.125 --> 00:05:26.360
this is like an answer to this modern problem where We don't have large blocks of time And so when we break it down into these small actions, we're making it more attainable We can access it.
00:05:26.500 --> 00:05:43.673
We can be more consistent than with it And it's something that you don't have to wait for the perfect time to do I feel like a lot of times we get in our heads and we're like it needs to be a certain Atmosphere it needs to be a certain time of the day like I need to have a new outfit to do this no we just You Do it.
00:05:43.673 --> 00:05:48.644
You give yourself, that one minute or that five minutes or that ten minutes and be like, okay I'm just gonna do it.
00:05:48.644 --> 00:05:49.524
I'm just gonna stretch.
00:05:49.524 --> 00:05:58.644
I'm just gonna breathe I'm just gonna walk outside and put my feet, you know in the grass Whatever that looks like and just be like I'm gonna do it right now on this moment
00:05:58.673 --> 00:06:01.434
So many of us wait for that perfect moment.
00:06:01.463 --> 00:06:01.894
You're right.
00:06:01.934 --> 00:06:13.668
An hour and I'm gonna wait Because we don't have a full Full hour together because the kids came in or because work called or because we have to run and grab the dogs from the vet, whatever it is.
00:06:13.968 --> 00:06:16.639
But you know what we can do is we can take 10 minutes.
00:06:16.778 --> 00:06:19.749
So why is this so important for women's mental health?
00:06:19.946 --> 00:06:22.865
As women, we are often the caregivers.
00:06:22.935 --> 00:06:28.076
We're not just caring for our children, but our partners, our parents, our friends.
00:06:28.271 --> 00:06:32.992
We are in this caregiving role and sometimes it feels very selfish or even impossible.
00:06:33.252 --> 00:06:35.492
And I'm going to say to carve out time for ourselves.
00:06:35.502 --> 00:06:41.281
We have this concept that we can carve out time or that we can make time or we can set aside time.
00:06:41.622 --> 00:06:42.922
That is not how time works.
00:06:42.942 --> 00:06:45.091
It does not grow on a tree in the backyard.
00:06:45.091 --> 00:06:46.101
I wish it did.
00:06:46.101 --> 00:06:48.161
I could go pluck time out of the air.
00:06:48.617 --> 00:06:53.357
It is not something and time is something I hear women all the time saying is I don't have time.
00:06:53.377 --> 00:06:54.877
I don't have time for that.
00:06:55.107 --> 00:06:55.916
I don't have time.
00:06:55.916 --> 00:06:56.047
And
00:06:56.047 --> 00:06:58.107
that's us putting our needs last.
00:06:58.117 --> 00:06:58.776
Yes.
00:06:59.016 --> 00:07:02.416
And sometimes we're like, well, I need a full hour of this so I can get replenished.
00:07:02.757 --> 00:07:04.076
No, I don't need a full hour.
00:07:04.076 --> 00:07:05.916
I need 10 minutes.
00:07:06.132 --> 00:07:07.701
Before I can go be a better person.
00:07:07.831 --> 00:07:11.331
Yeah, and those 10 minutes every day of the week, that's an hour of that.
00:07:11.382 --> 00:07:12.252
That adds up.
00:07:12.271 --> 00:07:13.911
Those little things add up.
00:07:13.982 --> 00:07:19.021
Yeah, sometimes I'll sit in my office, Randy, and I'll finish with my day, and I'm not ready to go outside yet.
00:07:19.072 --> 00:07:20.682
I'm not ready to go out into the kitchen.
00:07:20.951 --> 00:07:22.922
And so I'll stay in my office for 10 minutes.
00:07:23.149 --> 00:07:25.209
And they're like, oh, did somebody go over?
00:07:25.548 --> 00:07:27.189
Oh, yeah, I was just wrapping some stuff up.
00:07:27.269 --> 00:07:29.749
Nah, dude, I might be sitting there stretching or playing on Facebook.
00:07:30.319 --> 00:07:30.749
Sometimes I hide
00:07:30.749 --> 00:07:31.689
out in my car.
00:07:31.709 --> 00:07:34.098
I just don't get out of the car because I'm like in a little bubble.
00:07:34.428 --> 00:07:38.858
I'm either working or doing something or taking a break, because I don't want any other distractions.
00:07:39.369 --> 00:07:42.249
And I'm just like, this is my little safe zone.
00:07:42.269 --> 00:07:45.358
Cause I don't have a reading shack in the backyard though.
00:07:45.358 --> 00:07:58.629
I would love one, but it's giving myself like that safe space to just take a handful of minutes to kind of like check in with myself and reset because often we get to the point where we feel like we're going to break.
00:07:59.389 --> 00:07:59.939
Exactly.
00:07:59.978 --> 00:08:09.908
Gosh, one time when mine was like two, they were apparently in the garage and the garage was slightly open and I was in the driveway and I was in my car for five more minutes.
00:08:09.939 --> 00:08:12.579
It had been one of those days I wanted to finish a couple songs.
00:08:12.959 --> 00:08:15.959
Next thing I know, I see this little head popping underneath it.
00:08:15.959 --> 00:08:17.978
Mom's home! Mom's home! I'm all excited.
00:08:17.978 --> 00:08:18.579
I'm excited.
00:08:18.579 --> 00:08:20.559
And the next thing you know, the garage door's going up.
00:08:20.579 --> 00:08:21.139
Oh, what are you doing?
00:08:21.319 --> 00:08:21.588
Yep.
00:08:21.588 --> 00:08:22.369
Just got here.
00:08:22.379 --> 00:08:22.939
Yep.
00:08:23.389 --> 00:08:26.428
So then I decided I had to wait down the street when I needed that extra time.
00:08:26.848 --> 00:08:30.218
I'd be parked two houses down and then when I was ready, I would drive in.
00:08:30.228 --> 00:08:34.755
And so it's finding whatever you need to do to make that time.
00:08:34.755 --> 00:08:35.885
See here I am making time.
00:08:35.895 --> 00:08:36.605
We can't make time.
00:08:36.885 --> 00:08:37.395
We can't carve it.
00:08:37.975 --> 00:08:42.566
Just taking small moments to show up for ourselves.
00:08:43.525 --> 00:08:46.599
It reinforces that we are important too.
00:08:46.899 --> 00:08:49.239
We are important.
00:08:49.499 --> 00:08:51.999
We deserve to be cared for.
00:08:52.068 --> 00:08:54.269
We deserve to take care of ourselves.
00:08:54.589 --> 00:08:59.068
And this has an overall impact on our mental health, our physical health.
00:08:59.193 --> 00:09:00.403
Emotional, everything.
00:09:00.714 --> 00:09:03.413
Especially when we do it consistently.
00:09:03.634 --> 00:09:06.344
I am a better person when I take care of myself.
00:09:06.644 --> 00:09:07.423
It just, I'm Because like
00:09:07.614 --> 00:09:10.734
we've talked about this before, you cannot pour from an empty cup.
00:09:11.183 --> 00:09:15.354
You can't just give and give and give and give and get nothing back in return.
00:09:15.413 --> 00:09:16.994
You are going to shatter.
00:09:17.303 --> 00:09:19.744
Or get snappy or say things that you don't want.
00:09:19.744 --> 00:09:22.994
And so it is okay to say, I need Five minutes.
00:09:23.053 --> 00:09:24.413
I need ten minutes.
00:09:24.433 --> 00:09:25.474
I need a half hour.
00:09:25.474 --> 00:09:31.480
And I've shared this before, my mom worked a very stressful, high level job.
00:09:31.596 --> 00:09:36.313
She would come home from her long commute and she would go into her bedroom and change.
00:09:36.724 --> 00:09:40.234
I didn't know at the time, but it would take ten minutes to an hour.
00:09:40.264 --> 00:09:40.663
I don't know.
00:09:40.854 --> 00:09:48.221
Yeah, and that was her That was her decompressing that she'd say as soon as I changed we could talk to her and the minute She walked out and she was changed.
00:09:48.251 --> 00:09:49.892
We could all attack her in the hallway,
00:09:49.922 --> 00:10:01.736
though Like I need this time to Yeah process and I used to do that too and I would come home from working with clients especially because I was in a high stress severely, mentally ill clients.
00:10:02.017 --> 00:10:07.096
I need an hour to just, whether that's cry, and let it all out.
00:10:07.297 --> 00:10:14.787
so that I wasn't bringing that into my home life and my kids I could process the day and let it go and be able to be like, okay, now I'm here.
00:10:14.797 --> 00:10:15.517
Now I'm present.
00:10:15.777 --> 00:10:16.027
I know.
00:10:16.027 --> 00:10:16.336
I love it.
00:10:16.346 --> 00:10:18.341
My family's always like, how was your day today?
00:10:18.932 --> 00:10:28.621
It was great! But I'm thinking I had to call CPS once, I had to do a safety plan, I was a little worried about the last one, but I'm like, oh, it's great, yeah, it's great, how was your day?
00:10:28.751 --> 00:10:36.566
Because I can't talk about it, let's do some practical tips for some other people, besides ourselves, on how they can incorporate the micro self care tips.
00:10:36.706 --> 00:10:41.066
So one of our favorites is a one minute deep breath.
00:10:41.145 --> 00:10:47.586
When you feel overwhelmed, take one minute to breathe in deeply through your nose on four counts.
00:10:49.966 --> 00:10:52.186
and then exhale for four counts.
00:10:52.796 --> 00:11:01.576
Just doing this simple act of deep breathing can help you feel more grounded and reduce your anxiety almost instantly.
00:11:01.696 --> 00:11:05.875
when you do this, I really want you to either do a superwoman pose.
00:11:06.140 --> 00:11:10.480
Or put your hands up on your head like a triangle, like you just ran a marathon.
00:11:10.890 --> 00:11:11.331
Yeah, yeah.
00:11:11.640 --> 00:11:12.951
do box breathing before.
00:11:12.961 --> 00:11:13.270
Well,
00:11:13.441 --> 00:11:14.910
yeah, box or triangle breathing.
00:11:14.931 --> 00:11:18.721
Yeah, when you do it like that, because what it does is it opens up your lungs.
00:11:19.160 --> 00:11:23.250
And if you could just do that no more than three times, really, because then you'll get lightheaded.
00:11:23.561 --> 00:11:28.600
But just do that and it will really all of a sudden change the scenario of whatever is happening.
00:11:28.610 --> 00:11:32.900
And if you do that a couple of times a day, set a reminder, put it on your watch.
00:11:32.910 --> 00:11:36.041
A lot of our watches will tell us to breathe, which is great.
00:11:36.191 --> 00:11:40.370
Just do that one minute and that is going to change your day.
00:11:40.860 --> 00:11:44.171
So this next one I love so much too.
00:11:44.490 --> 00:11:47.140
So let's talk about mindful sipping.
00:11:47.461 --> 00:11:48.630
we're not talking about vodka, okay?
00:11:48.801 --> 00:11:52.681
We're talking, we're not like mindfully sipping whiskey.
00:11:52.750 --> 00:11:55.331
We're talking about that cup of coffee or tea.
00:11:55.620 --> 00:12:00.081
Randi gave me this cool she had no, I don't know how she knew I wanted a teacup, like a teakettle.
00:12:00.431 --> 00:12:00.961
She gave me this.
00:12:01.201 --> 00:12:01.671
Oh yeah, for your office.
00:12:01.750 --> 00:12:12.081
Yeah, she gave me this beautiful iridescent tea kettle that I pull out every winter, because it's nice and cold in my office, it's like this whole display thing, and I put it on one of my pretty boards.
00:12:12.321 --> 00:12:25.500
I have a little tea cup with it, and I put my decaf tea in it, but it's always something that is just lovely, like a berry or, yes, it is, and then now I'm also getting my water, and I will pour from that, and I will just sip.
00:12:25.600 --> 00:12:26.010
From that.
00:12:26.020 --> 00:12:33.181
And I will take a moment while I'm doing it to not only just chug it, like I do my coffee, but to smell the tea.
00:12:33.230 --> 00:12:35.650
Because the aroma, like the essence, enjoying
00:12:35.650 --> 00:12:39.860
the flavor, like just taking that five minutes to just
00:12:39.860 --> 00:12:40.541
pause
00:12:40.551 --> 00:12:40.581
and.
00:12:42.020 --> 00:12:44.711
And be present in that moment of what you're doing.
00:12:44.900 --> 00:12:45.221
Yeah.
00:12:45.221 --> 00:12:58.010
And just the taste of it, because again, I don't, I, I has to be something yummy that I like and just really enjoying that moment, even if I'm with a client, I want to just, just have it there in my hand and enjoy it.
00:12:58.010 --> 00:13:00.341
And it's gotta be a pretty cup, by the way, it can't be an ugly cup.
00:13:00.341 --> 00:13:01.730
And it has to be a pretty cup.
00:13:01.730 --> 00:13:02.951
I'm holding a cup in my air.
00:13:02.951 --> 00:13:03.630
It's a pretty cup.
00:13:05.091 --> 00:13:05.390
Okay.
00:13:05.441 --> 00:13:13.811
Another tip during your work day would be every hour or so to get up and stretch, maybe look out the window, shift your position.
00:13:13.821 --> 00:13:25.811
Somehow a lot of us have these standing desks, lowering desks, just to shift it and move and maybe just acknowledge like a stretch to the sun, that is such a good, yeah,
00:13:25.880 --> 00:13:26.321
Yeah.
00:13:26.321 --> 00:13:30.221
Cause that helps it reduces tension, helps you clear your mind.
00:13:30.230 --> 00:13:34.520
That's why too, if you have an Apple watch, like it tells you, you need to get up and move.
00:13:34.650 --> 00:13:35.061
Like every so often.
00:13:35.061 --> 00:13:35.870
They all do.
00:13:35.961 --> 00:13:36.400
Yeah.
00:13:36.400 --> 00:13:36.729
Even like a Fitbit.
00:13:36.729 --> 00:13:38.438
A lot of times I ignore it.
00:13:38.448 --> 00:13:45.078
But, I'm like, okay, no, I need to get up and I need to move my body because that's going to help me throughout the day.
00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:02.319
00:00:02.350 --> 00:00:03.080
00:00:03.080 --> 00:00:03.805
00:00:03.834 --> 00:00:12.544
00:00:12.605 --> 00:00:15.595
00:00:16.044 --> 00:00:23.134
00:00:23.184 --> 00:00:25.664
00:00:25.893 --> 00:00:33.984
00:00:34.043 --> 00:00:34.374
00:00:34.514 --> 00:00:36.134
00:00:36.134 --> 00:00:37.454
00:00:37.694 --> 00:00:41.433
00:00:41.444 --> 00:00:44.103
00:00:44.103 --> 00:00:45.823
00:00:45.823 --> 00:00:47.124
00:00:47.124 --> 00:00:47.143
00:00:47.143 --> 00:00:47.334
00:00:47.334 --> 00:00:48.293
00:00:48.393 --> 00:00:49.524
00:00:49.533 --> 00:00:56.774
00:00:57.243 --> 00:00:58.853
00:00:58.996 --> 00:01:00.892
00:01:00.932 --> 00:01:01.271
00:01:01.822 --> 00:01:02.832
00:01:02.841 --> 00:01:03.921
00:01:04.061 --> 00:01:06.281
00:01:06.671 --> 00:01:10.361
00:01:10.682 --> 00:01:14.691
00:01:15.221 --> 00:01:19.492
00:01:19.902 --> 00:01:20.891
00:01:21.501 --> 00:01:25.292
00:01:25.871 --> 00:01:29.981
00:01:30.031 --> 00:01:31.031
00:01:31.031 --> 00:01:31.701
00:01:32.531 --> 00:01:33.971
00:01:33.981 --> 00:01:34.522
00:01:34.522 --> 00:01:35.242
00:01:35.691 --> 00:01:38.542
00:01:39.012 --> 00:01:41.012
00:01:41.012 --> 00:01:41.762
00:01:42.171 --> 00:01:44.822
00:01:45.402 --> 00:01:46.341
00:01:46.391 --> 00:01:47.572
00:01:47.751 --> 00:01:48.552
00:01:49.102 --> 00:01:52.091
00:01:52.471 --> 00:01:53.781
00:01:54.302 --> 00:02:03.111
00:02:03.481 --> 00:02:12.801
00:02:13.282 --> 00:02:18.731
00:02:18.762 --> 00:02:20.901
00:02:21.442 --> 00:02:21.921
00:02:22.162 --> 00:02:24.542
00:02:24.641 --> 00:02:27.002
00:02:27.342 --> 00:02:36.468
00:02:36.588 --> 00:02:38.519
00:02:38.968 --> 00:02:41.389
00:02:41.479 --> 00:02:42.139
00:02:42.299 --> 00:02:43.188
00:02:43.188 --> 00:02:45.658
00:02:45.739 --> 00:02:46.399
00:02:46.399 --> 00:02:48.818
00:02:49.118 --> 00:02:49.329
00:02:49.459 --> 00:02:49.618
00:02:50.019 --> 00:03:00.058
00:03:00.609 --> 00:03:10.455
00:03:10.622 --> 00:03:14.412
00:03:14.611 --> 00:03:19.542
00:03:19.752 --> 00:03:27.921
00:03:27.921 --> 00:03:30.562
00:03:30.861 --> 00:03:33.141
00:03:33.192 --> 00:03:33.512
00:03:33.521 --> 00:03:43.342
00:03:43.701 --> 00:03:49.342
00:03:49.701 --> 00:03:53.882
00:03:53.931 --> 00:03:57.451

00:04:52.552 --> 00:04:55.228
00:04:55.228 --> 00:04:55.711
00:04:55.711 --> 00:04:55.740
00:04:55.740 --> 00:04:56.011
00:04:56.021 --> 00:04:58.690
00:04:58.940 --> 00:04:59.620
00:04:59.735 --> 00:05:12.375
00:05:12.375 --> 00:05:12.826

00:07:23.149 --> 00:07:25.209
00:07:25.548 --> 00:07:27.189
00:07:27.269 --> 00:07:29.749
00:07:30.319 --> 00:07:30.749
00:07:30.749 --> 00:07:31.689
