- [00:00:05.916]It's an honor to be able to bring this connection
- [00:00:09.125]between bees and reconnecting people
- [00:00:12.333]to being in the present moment.
- [00:00:16.333]So today is bee wellness or also bee yoga.
- [00:00:20.625]So I was inspired to do this event
- [00:00:24.083]just as an extension of my practice of yoga.
- [00:00:28.083]So a little unique, right?
- [00:00:30.208]But the concept of husbandry, of taking care of another organism,
- [00:00:35.125]but also that organism which we're connected with, kind
- [00:00:38.958]of taking care of ourselves too, as we're with them and observing them.
- [00:00:44.291]I think one of my favorite things was sitting next to the beehive
- [00:00:47.916]and just hearing the bees come in and,
- [00:00:51.166]you know, watching them flying in and watching the pollen.
- [00:00:54.000]And I don't really get an opportunity to see bees up close like that very often.
- [00:01:00.041]So this was such an awesome experience.
- [00:01:04.125]We call this the pollinator garden
- [00:01:06.541]because we have diversity of different native plants here.
- [00:01:10.208]We have over 30 research colonies.
- [00:01:12.916]We do a lot of beekeeping workshops, outside as well here.
- [00:01:16.208]So it's a very fun, tranquil space.
- [00:01:20.125]When we slow down
- [00:01:22.375]and when we are present with them and honestly just listening to them,
- [00:01:25.791]we can enter their home and be welcome there.
- [00:01:29.250]So, my vision is just for presence
- [00:01:32.583]and for people to feel just a sense of like calmness and connection.
