Your hummingbird friend is beautiful 💚 🐦 ☘️

“I don’t believe in boredom, I believe you choose to be bored, there’s so much around to notice” WOAH, I had never thought of it that way. I’m gonna take that to my life from now on!!!

[@AliciaNyblade]

Me, too! I never considered boredom like that, but ti's so true. Definitely going to remember that moving forward.

[@Jupe367]

One thing I notice about Sierra is, she enunciate each word. Every syllable is so clear, not muffle or mumble. She doesn’t slur or slangs...Sierra please consider doing a podcast. You have the skill for broadcast entertainment as well.

[@AliciaNyblade]

Thank you for this reminder, Sierra. My brain always feels like it's several steps ahead of the current moment. I'm an actress and playwright and I think finding that balance of learning to be present ourselves while also reflecting the world in our work is something a lot of creative souls struggle with.

[@jenniferyap5289]

Thank you for today's Light Lessons 🙏 As a person with ADHD, being fully present has always been a challenge.

[@esteraulrich-oltean2162]

"Find the four-leaf clover in the moment that you're in." Wow. Profound.

[@crisfabrizzi4406]

Thank you Sierra ! You ARE More than enough to me and my soul. Gratitude and love to you and your family.

Some of us leave our mobile devices outside the toilet..friends from Plum Village. Present Moment, Wonderful Moment.

[@charleemikaela2328]

And there are such nice people here 🤗🤗🤗

[@shuettohloke7408]

Omg... I have never seen hummingbirds so relaxed & oblivious to people before! You are special, Sierra 💗

[@jclairehilario6346]

They say it's because she's a Disney princess, but plants and animals really just know instinctively if they're in a safe place. Princess or not, they will approach if you don't pose any danger. :)

[@dorisknaggs8452]

[@lynneconn6784]

You're so fortunate to be with your family in such a beautiful place! Thank you for sharing it with us, Sierra!

[@charleemikaela2328]

Thank you so much, Sierra! You really inspired us (light workes) in this light lesson. You're right, being fully present is really important. I hope there are more light lessons to come so you can continue to inspire us. ❤️❤️❤️

[@ralphwilliams2208]

I am so happy you are getting nature and family time that you probably would have missed if there was not this pandemic.

[@user-xh4kk8vp2i]

So this was such wonderful lesson. I wound like to add to it. We as humans get so caught up in the daily things of life ,that we complain about the things we don't have, that we forget to be grateful for the thnigs we do have, like the gift of sight, hearing, smell, and toch. And God gives these gifts to us every moment of the day and the Greatest gift is the ( Breath of life)so when your haveing a bad day then remember some one out there in the world is less fortunate then you are .And take a moment a conden plate the gifts that God give you and me every moment of the day. And thank you Sierra for that Beautiful lessons on ( Being fully Present).

[@ashtamarie7561]

Oh, this is by FAR my favorite episode!! What lovely words to receive 💕

[@adrianam2798]

“Fully Present” I love that! Thank you for sharing! I actually used to have a hummingbird tree in my backyard growing up and we always got hummingbirds flying around! I love them so much!

[@This-isGirl]

I like this lesson. You look really reeraally happy and it makes me happy for you. I smiled throughout the video, still smiling ☺️ Please tell your parents that they keep a beautiful garden. It must smell nice. Peace!

[@helenawoods]

Joy, presence and living life according to your inner voice within - all topics I am also so passionate about and love to share through youtube videos! So cool to find this channel

[@pinrey]

Hi ! Amelie is my 3 - year - old daughter and on July the 19th is her birthday . We are from Buenos Aires , Argentina . She doesn't speak english at all and she is still a big fan of the Phantom of the Opera . We would be very happy if Sierra Boggess , who plays Christine Daaé , sent her a birthday message . Please help us make this viral !! Thank you so much!!!

[@jobethsepino3804]

Always in awe at how these Light Lessons seem to appear at the exact same time when I need it. I had a rather unpleasant encounter a couple weeks back wherein I was not fully present, and I cried for it afterwards, so I believe this is a reminder. 🙏💕 Thank you, Sierra. You're a true light worker indeed. ✨

[@yanaraymundo]

Practice being fully present and learn to find something special even in the mundane things :) Seek your four leaf clover and you will always find it. I have been looking forward to these Light Lessons every week! Thank you so much, Sierra!

[@jclairehilario6346]

Can't see your insta handles from the live chat for some reason. But I know we'll find each other thanks to Sierra's platforms. Thank you, Sierra. There is a sunbird here that resembles a hummingbird. I'll think of being fully present when I see them and the chestnut munias that live in my mother's fig tree. When you zoom on the animals, I enjoy the wildlife but I also LOVE the foliage because I love identifying the flora also. My mother is quite the gardener also and she's fully present always with her plants. Because of her fig tree, we have been enjoying the chirps of the baby munias. I'm glad our landlady didn't cut it down. Now it's such a haven to us and a delight. Mornings are full of birds chirping and their parents bringing bugs in their beaks. Like you said animals are ALWAYS fully present. And you're right!

[@orianamandi]

You are soooo lucky to have a garden in your house😍😍

[@shuettohloke7408]

Hi Sierra... tq so much for your posts on Ig... so wonderful to experience your journey to Denver n now in your parents home 💗

[@franpost9800]

I missed you last week! I look forward to your inspiration tomorrow. I’ve been listening and watching all of your videos on KZbin. I needed to have you with me.

[@andysinkleris8839]

Thank you for this! I don’t know if you noticed, but early in your talk a hummingbird came up to the birdbath behind you and took a drink!

[@sophiadragoo7545]

Sierra you are my favorite person

[@carol__theatre]

Since I have watched your instagram stories, I was totally desired to learn what you will give us. And after watching this video, I just can't wait to be a fully present for any challenge in my future .(Including tomorrow's final exam.) The words you said were always fulled with wise and sincere, which lead me to try to follow every step you instructed. Today is definitely a fine day, and I hope tomorrow will do so. Luv u Sie, a loyal spectator from Taiwan.

[@TaylorBrown13]

I get this word so much!! I'm soooo excited for this episode! :)

[@greatempress1182]

Thank god for this... i felt a little lost last week

[@deegeeEdits]

Thank you!!! I needed this

[@christophemae4ever]

Is it a coincidence? I used every moment of my life since the beginning of the quarantine trying to be fully present. I read some Japanese tales and one of the lessons of it was "Be fully present and you'll be stronger". And here is this video... I am so impatient to hear what is being fully present for you Sierra, because I know how interresting it will be, and how good it is to hear you. Then I'll take some notes, translate them to French and share it with my husband. Truly, since the moment I began using the Light Lessons, I have been wondering about coincidences... Do they really exist? Thank you, by the way, for bringing so much light and love into our lifes.

[@alison8226]

This was beautiful and so inspiring I am so insanely grateful for these light lessons every week,thank you Sierra for changing my life we love you❤️☘️

[@AmandaVannessa]

“Find the four leaf clover in each other.” Asé 🍀

[@elisabethnerolk2283]

Sierra, the Hummingbird came for a reason!! please look up Hummingbird totem animal!! theres a beautiful picture with text on pinterest, saying : Teh Hummingbird Spirit animal symbolizes the enjoyment of life and lightness of being. Those who have the hummingbird as a totem are invited to enjoy the sweetness of life, lift up negativity, where ever it creeps in, and express love more FULLY in their endeavors. Those who have this bird as their totem may be encouraged to develop their adaptability resiliency while keeping a playful and optimistic outlook!!

[@kirsten1509]

I read the marination station for this light lesson and I was shocked because that is my goal for this week to stay out of my phone, hmm coincidence or not? Can't wait to watch this and to rewatch it to take notes😍

[@alexpalmer9897]

Lots of love

[@dorothymiskovic7202]

Hi Sierra 😄

[@evangelineceballos6792]

[@payneuk3002]

[@dorothymiskovic7202]

I think ramin did one

Join us in the live chat ! :)

[@Sdurham3]

Another good video Sierra! I have a question. What technique(s) do you use, or anyone that reads this, to clear your head when you are trying to be fully present? There have been many times I have been out in nature, that's where I go to get my relief from "Life", that thoughts will creep into my head. I don't take electronics because I want nature to be my soundtrack. Lots of times these thoughts can linger. Maybe they came to me because they are things that I have put off dealing with and need to leave on the trail. I don't know. Maybe you can respond to this in a follow up video with "mental' tips you use. Sometimes my techniques fail me..looking for some new material.

Dear Sierra, would it be too much to ask of you to make a Pinterest account? I think you would really fit into the community there as well...

[@restoration2489]

I want to make friends with you, how?
