Speaker 3 (00:22):
Everything is trending, but this specific thing is called ear seating.
Ear Seating is a new practice from traditional Chinese medicine
that helps your mental health. It helps reduce pain, It
can even help with your allergies.

Speaker 2 (00:35):
So I wrought this.

Speaker 3 (00:36):
Up because there are two people in this room that
have been suffering great Zoria and me. Yeah, that's rough
with their allergies. So ear seating is when you put
a little accessory on your ear. They like almost tape
it there. It's like a little not a jewel, but
it kind of looks like a little like a bead.
And so because it's there. The actual thing is called
our acular therapy. They actually don't ask me to say that.

(00:59):
It's really hard, but it's something that they've been practicing
in Chinese medicine for a while. So ear seating is
now trending though, and it's making its moves all around
because it's a cute little gadget that can help a
digestion and it can help with all of the things.
So if a miracle accessory can help save your life, like,
why not even back pain?

Speaker 2 (01:17):
So you gotta put an ear on your on your ear?
Oh yeah, so it is kind of like what do
you call it? Thank you? Yes?

Speaker 3 (01:26):
Pressure, Yes, your ear is not that like, there are
a lot of points on your ear. Actually, there's stuff
that you can push on your ear that helps with
your metabolism also the way that you massage it. So
I don't know, I'm not superversed in this, but it
sounds really interesting and you've got nothing to lose by
just putting a little ceramic bead with an eesef on
your ear.

Speaker 2 (01:44):
That's cute and makes you feel good awesome in your ear.

Speaker 3 (01:47):
Now, the type of friend, we all have different types
of friends, but the air and friend is having its moment.
You know that one friend that you don't have to
like do anything with other than like go to Target
or get coffee, Like you don't have to get drinks.
You have some friends or just your party of friends. Yeah,
and then you have some friends that you can actually
go on Errand's with and it's fun and it doesn't
feel like a chore. That type of friend is having
its moment. If you are that friend, it is your

(02:09):
time you stand up and say, I am that Aaron friend.
You want to go get groceries, I'll come with you
to get that apple, and then you are the best friend.
That's what people want right now. They want people that
can genuinely enjoy their company while doing things they.

Speaker 2 (02:22):
Don't want to do. You should always have enfolding lawn
friends like that.

Speaker 3 (02:26):
You should, I know, right, it seems like it's kind
of common sense. But I don't feel like I've always
had those kind of friends really, because my friends always
wanted to turn up. Now finally, but if they're like
your real friends, they'll want to like turn up, but
also they'll want to do other stuff with you.

Speaker 2 (02:38):
No, they'll say that's boring. Yeah, I guess I'm not
that friend.

Speaker 1 (02:41):
Because someone's like, Hey, I'm gonna you want to come
over while I fold laundry and be like, just call
me after the laundries.

Speaker 2 (02:46):
What there's no one you want to God, come.

Speaker 1 (02:48):
Over after you're done with that and chores right now,
I don't want to sit here awkwardly while you do
your chores. Goss why they do their chores, but like
you're like, hang out with them kind.

Speaker 3 (02:57):
Of also age because I feel that way too, do well,
I don't really want to be there for that.

Speaker 2 (03:00):
Tell me after you're not busy.

Speaker 3 (03:04):
The point is to sit with them, like you want
to come over while I get a shower and do
my hair and then we can go. No, just tell
me when you're done.

Speaker 2 (03:11):
I'm staying out. I'll sit down.

Speaker 1 (03:13):
I have lundry I need to fold. I guess I
could do that while you're doing yours over here.

Speaker 2 (03:16):
Oh and then you can just you can call and
put it on sad on the phone. What we've learned
here is Victoria is the Aaron friend.

Speaker 1 (03:23):
That friend.

Speaker 2 (03:23):
You're the friend. Amen, this is your moment. I got
you for everything. Oh that's what's trending.
