Being, Not Doing 

When I was a much younger woman, I ran around in a tizzy, always frantic to get things done. I lived the majority of my life on a small farm & you were always DOING something. I had my sheep, my dogs, my gardens, a big vegetable patch, along with my daughter & husband. There wasn't much time for BEING. Now, I am older, wiser & I look back & think what a fool I was, as, the work always managed to get done. I live in a small city now & still have a dog, flowers & some vegetables, along with herbs. I have learned the grace of just BEING- sitting on my porch with a nice cup of herbal tea & a good book & surveying my little "kingdom". If I can pass on any wisdom, it is this- take the time EVERY day to do at least ONE thing you absolutely love. We only get each day once & once it's gone, it's gone. Thank you for this! Love & light

Being - Not Doing - PERFECT wisdom to remember! I planted my garden not only for herbs and produce, but also for flowers for the pollinators and for me to enjoy their beauty. I need to remind myself to take more time to relax, enjoy and just BE, instead of constantly checking my to-DO list. Wonderful video - Thank You!

That little Brock is the cutest "being" ever. The segment of home, sea, horses and perfect music made my heart sing

I’m currently burnt out! Can’t even accomplish basic tasks properly - thank you for this message

Its funny, I thought the same thing the other day!! I was making my way outside, pruners in hand, with all my to-do stuff rolling around in my head as usual, and I thought: all this tending to it but when do I get to just take it all in?, be in it? A garden to-do list is never ending so I grabbed lawn chair and just parked it right in the middle of it all. I was there for hours and it was amazing how much was going on, things I didnt realize were there, the beauty of everything in harmony with itself. I was overwhelmed with gratitude! The look on Brocks face says it all! Thank you Terry!! Much love 🥰❤

🦋🤗🤗❤️ I talk to my vegetable Plants and flowers everyday. And thank them and tell them they are beautiful and they are loved. ❤

5:43 my mother always told me that she new the barometric pressure was up because she felt run down. So she would have a day where she would do nothing but what she felt like dong. Then a rain would come and she felt better afterwards. Your video reminded me of her saying that. My mum has passed to a better place. I love it when I wake up and hear her talking to me through a channel of life.

Friendship are like gardens the more you tend to them the more they grow..🌹

I agree. Just relaxing n enjoying the blessings thst God has given us on earth to sustain us, revive us, and heal us

Thank you for this timely vlog. I really appreciated your message today Terri but also Lol’s beautifully filmed footage and his music. It gave me a moment where my brain stopped processing thought and made me appreciate how essential it is for me to be in harmony with nature, in its rhythm and flow. I hope that you both have a lovely week and can also find rest.

Being while doing , this is connection 🙏 Thank you 🙏 You and your Chanel are an inspiration 👍🙏💚

Today I harvested chamomile too! I recently had heart surgery, and am unable to do my usual huge vegetable garden so I am living your words. I can only do a little, and then exhaustion takes over, but those are blessed moments for me ~ to finally just sit in the Roses and Verbascum, herbs and spires of Hesperus and let the beauty and energy flow over me. I am so grateful to God I'm alive, every moment is precious. Thank You, Danu!

What a perfect place to just BE, and thank you adorable pooches for bringing such a smile to my face. 🙏🌱

Brock and Jaz have no problem just being ❤

It's a lovely day when you can stop and smell the roses.

Thankyou...BE in the garden...I take that with me today❤

Thank you so much what you shared with us! So true and especiasly when I can feel the difference! ❤🙏🌹

Enjoy this day of Grace ❤. I’m off to Be with my garden🙏

🦋🇺🇸👋Good Morning Everyone. Yes just being and enjoying. It’s my peaceful place. I love to just sit and look at my beautiful small Garden and flowers. God Bless you and thank you 🙏 ❤

❤ Incredibly BEAUTIFUL & INSPIRING film. Thank you for your important reminder...and for delivering it with such grace. Xo

Sometimes I feel like I'm not doing enough. But then I realize that I don't have to do it all at one time. I do what needs to be done when it needs to be done and don't beat myself up if other things don't get done. Sending you all many blessings.

It’s nice to just putter around in the garden at a leisurely pace, taking time to look at everything, as opposed to being on a mission so to speak. On days you have time to go this way, it’s the best!

Love this, we spend so long doing that we struggle to understand the beauty in being. Sit down a couple of times with a cuppa and watch the bees, listen to the garden then do what needs doing.

Hi Terri and Lol 🌞🌿 thank you so much for this lovely video, I love every video you make, they are a marvellous window to your fantastic, peaceful garden. Yes, you must enjoy your beautiful garden ( as Jazz and Broc do) just being there. Animals are so intelligent , we must learn from them 🐾💖I missed the last week video 😢 😅Thank you and have a wonderful time in the garden and a wonderful week 💚🌼🌸🙂

Thank you Terri. Such a nice and soothing video. Especially for Virgo people or people woth strong Virgo placements there's always tbis constant jeed to be productive and get stuff done. Sometimes it's necessary to justnstop, take a moment and smell the roses.

Hello Terri🎼☀️🌿 Love love love this message! Couldn’t agree with you more. When I slow down and just be I feel the nature around me is more able to embrace me with its amazing healing power. What a gift! 🌼☕️ Thank you!

Thank you so much ! Here is automne and I enjoy the colours and light.Just be.😊blessings, Irène

When I come home after being away I always go directly into the garden to reconnect and say hello ❤

Thanks for saying it's ok just to have a day for being. I had a day like that today and it made me so happy ❤

It's hard to find a friend to come sit and be with on my schedule. But I get to sit with my friend Terri for a short moment to ponder healthy vibes as we sit in my ancient protected forest in the Sacramento Mountains in the southern tip of the Rocky Mountains in New Mexico. Allowing my inner child to play. Thanks friends 😊

Beautiful reminder. So lovely to 'be' with you ALL today ❤

Thank you for just being. I LOVE your two dogs, they are such friends together. Your beautiful garden, with all the colours, is such a delight just to be in, as you said. I too have a David Austen rose - Gabriel Oak - and the scent of it is so uplifting when I come in through my garden gate, it greets me with that scent, and it's beautiful form and colour. I hope your day of peace will lift your spirits, and help you feel better. Blessings from Jilly & Madge, from West Devon, England. xxx

Good for you Terri. We all need loving tender care from nature. I will be looking into your course for herbs for women. Thank you for such a lovely video ❤❤

Perfect day beautiful garden and seeing the pups enjoying being out

A great reminder to just be,thankyou,much needed. Your lovely dog was a perfect example at the end. Best wishes.

Thank you so much, dear one. This was such a great reminder to be still.

This was so beautiful… Thankyou for sharing… you are so right … we need to get off that treadmill… and I love your paisley pants … just lovely.. have a wonderful day.💚

It is important just [TO BE] , and what better way than to connect with nature,and the dogs are loving it. Thank you Terri,from Scotland.

Happy Summer Solstice. ☀️

After I watch this I am going into the greenhouse and sit in the rocking chair I put out there, the dog and cats will join me. Being a being. We will have some rain here as well, got some last night and it is much needed.

I love your perception and your attitude about nature. I love the connection with the plants. Your dogs are wonderful too. Thank you for your wisdom.

Thank you so much Terri and Lol. Luke and I are so grateful for the beautiful handfasting ceremony you created for us last weekend 🥰 I am glad to see you arrived home safely and the garden is looking so beautiful as well. We felt miserable after you and all the guests left. Was so strange and surreal. See you in Ireland, hopefully next year to play some concerts! Big hugs from North Yorkshire xx PS) Your doglets are so sweet. Bet they were happy to see you!

Thank you for this important reminder! ❤

Thank you just what i needed and beautiful music ❤

Thank you for those words of wisdom🙏🏼. A great reminder for us all. Shift from “doing” to “being”❣️We will then be in the downstream flow of life….instead of swimming against the current ❤️

Absolutely lovely…Be in this moment, this breath NOW. And your music at the ending is the whip cream on the cake 🌹🐝🧚🏼‍♀️♥️

Your message today was one I needed to hear but something I find very difficult to implement. As soon as I sit down in the garden I notice everything that needs doing and have to get up again!

Lovely, thank you.I enjoyed a cup of coffee while walking around your garden with you.

BEING - what a wonderful concept. Thanks for sharing that! 🙏🧚💙

Great Advice! It’s Father’s Day here in America and we are going to gather and enjoy a good meal and company together. Tomorrow I will be able to just be and enjoy my gardens. Love and Light to All! 🙏🏻❤️🌎💕🌞🌱

Your thoughtful comments made me think "One of the main things you NEED to DO is take time to BE"! It's as important as any chore. I find I have to go to a coffeehouse to just "be" (and read, which is my meditation) as I get so distracted at home by things to "do". I'll work on undistracted "being" to hone that skill! Painting is somewhere between doing and being for me as I get lost while painting and love it. Thanks for the thought-provoking topic. ❤

A very important message. 🙏❤️

Good morning my coffee friend!! Much needed wisdom from a very wise woman. Very much needed at any time but much more so in today's high tension.

Wonderful! Most often, out in my garden, I am working, doing. At least I do have those moments, out digging, weeding, working, taking in all the glory, beauty and wonder of my garden space filled with so many amazing, useful, edible, medicinal plants. Today I had one of those 'being' days. Out in the garden I simply strolled around, admiring all the different blooms, growing herbs and vegetables. Here roses are blooming now too. As I work I'm always talking with plants, telling them what I'm up to, what I hope to accomplish with them. Smelling the roses, lemon balm, catnip, feverfew, onions, chives, etc. etc. is aroma therapy at its best. Connecting, intimately, with our gardens and nature surrounding us is what life is all about. Isn't it? Enjoy your summer garden. Thanks for sharing. Cheers!

Sending so much love. The relaxation and peace is coming thru the field. I love Brocks final shot. And the music…..😍

Beautiful ❤❤❤

A relaxing visit with Terri Conroy! Beauty everywhere as always. Thank you🍀

Hi Danu, Yes indeed thank you for reminding us all to take time in the garden and have a quiet day. much appreciation thank you.🌼🥰

I call this being in the REcovery tank....RE setting RE vitalizing RE juvenating. When the "tank" is a bench in the garden with herbal tea, two dogs a grandchild and some sweet music...in IRELAND....ahhhh 'tis very good!

Lovely to see your garden, flowers, the dogs and the ponies/horses, doing well. I agree with you; it's peaceful to enjoy the garden. Now the weather in the Netherlands cold and wet is (still), the sun blocked, I love to sit in my greenhouse and enjoy the plants, the cumcumber, peppers and strawberries, which are growing there with light from the lamps that I hung up there and it feels great! Thank you for your video.

Those days when we just don't feel 100%, and we're not even sure why... how wonderful to have the natural world to turn to for comfort and communing, as well as the health benefits we can derive from enjoying their bounty. Thanks for this reminder to slow down and smell the roses!

My spirit guides told me the same thing years ago. I didn't know what to do and they told me just be. And behold life unfolded😊 I am tired today and that is good advice❤

Hai pienamente ragione,siamo dei criceti ammaestrati,nemmeno ce ne accorgiamo.

Perfect❤ Just waking up here and listening to the birds In North Van BC

Thank you for the reminder. I find myself always doing and thinking of what needs to be done. I need to just slow down and enjoy more.

Your words today inspired me to comment. I've been retired for years now, and always tried to find a part-time job with benefits so I had time for my little farm, my garden, animals (especially my horses. Horses are part of my soul), writing fiction. Work was always an interruption in my day. I always had better things to do, but needed money, health benefits - someone has to pay the farrier, buy feed, pay the taxes! Anyway, I've done some past-life regressions, and had a few readings from psychics, and done a bit of family history - all Irish and English (97.4%). I've always been drawn to being outside, even as a little girl on our dairy farm, I was nibbling on the mint in the creek, wondering what the names of the flowers and rocks were. One past life regression took me to a very ancient Ireland, and I was the healer woman of the people - no wonder I've always been drawn to herbs, gardens. I also get a bit of psychic ability from Irish grandmothers, one grandmother showed herself sitting by the sea in her cottage reading cards and tea leaves. So when I look at places in England and Ireland, I imagine my ancestors might have lived there, worked there. I know Patrick and Bridget left Ireland during the potato famine years. Anyway, there are many reasons I love your channel. And, yes, I have some mint, lemon balm, and calendula drying as we speak. :)

Beautiful!!!❤️ Thank you Terri ❤️❤️❤️

Happy Father's Day to Lol. For the first time I have not one but two Mullein plants in my garden. I am in awe just watching it grow. So majestic, so symmetrical. ... Your video is inspirational. It's nice to just take a moment here and there, and become one with the garden. We have a variety of birds that come to our feeding station, and a neighbourhood cotton tail visiting regularly. Squirrels, too many and too often to say, entertain us with their antics and wit. My favourite summertime place is my own backyard. Enjoy the week.

Love BEING in my garden, dug the first potatoes up just enough for my dinner, nature is wonderful. Happy Solstace

Thank-you Terri so relaxing x

Wonderful video and music, as always ❤ we have so much to learn from our lovely animals who are masters of just being. Mindful doing and connecting with nature is so important to our well-being and often so under appreciated. Thank you for the reminder Terri. Enjoy your beautiful garden❤❤❤

Hi Terri and Lol, and all the beautiful beings around your oasis! Yes , being not having or doing to have , but to bee- ing! From the zuzmz of bees... I took 2 weeks off work and relax, sleep, read on bed... the best part I did not feel guilty! Can you believe! I was able to bend the learned conditioning!!! 😊 Peace and Love!

Thank you. Your channel is always so relaxing.

Thank you for the beautiful reminder. Will do.

Thank you Terri, wise words. Lovely video xx

Good day Dear Terri and Lol. What a timely message. It's becoming a bit difficult for the desert gardens right now. We're suffering from lack of rain ( 80 days without a drop and temperatures are over 105 F ) so it's not easy to watch my plants withering or to sit outside right now, but I can still take your advice and take this as a time to' just be'. Your area is always so lush and green and that brings me a smile and the dogs, I love watching them follow along with you. Thank you so much for the message and the general beauty. ( speaking of beauty, your hair looks absolutely gorgeous) Love and Green blessings always 💜🎑🐾🐾💜

Hello to you both, lovely views once again the intro music suits the land and photography, perfect . I often tell people " just be" find the stillness within and look outside at your wonderful gardens watch how the birds communicate with each other, telepathic signals. butterflies follow from one to the other as bees do, they aren't fussing around they are just being. We work hard to maintain our gardens but some people never seem to spend time listening to the Goddess. I know people who say oh no I can't just sit I have to be doing something, busy bustling around going from one project to the next, in the winter months too it has a special light that changes everything to sit and watch the night come in is really magical. I have Wood Pigeons nesting in my garden Sycamore, as I sit in the evening light or having breakfast outside, I hear a pigeon in the tree, making a sort of contentment sigh a soft murmur, I listen it's the best sound for deep relaxing breathing and contentment flows through me. You have a lot of beautiful plants The pink David Austin Rose looks similar to one I have called " Generous Gardener, smell beautiful, later in the year it has beautiful orange Rose hips a beacon of light on a winters day in the garden.hugs and Blessings to you all. 💚🌹

Beautiful saying....

Beautiful video thanks for sharing. Love from a herbalist in england

Yes just to be , my yoga teacher always has ended class by saying now is the time just to be after all the physical work is finished. Thanks Terri 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

I love your little foxy dog ! So cute and funny 💛 Animals are our true masters

Love this video, and those precious fur babies ♥️

Thank you Terry! This was just what I needed right now. There will always be something to do, especially in the garden, but Thank you for the reminder of how important it is to allow ourselves to Be. We are Human and Being, not only Human. The Being part of us is often forgotten, neglected, I know I am guilty of that. My one remaining sister passed away recently, suddenly, unexpectedly, quietly and it thankfully appears peacefully in her sleep and I still have a hard time believing it. So easy to ruminate on if only I knew, if only I was there with her, if only we had a chance to say goodbye… your films are always a comfort and a hug for the Human in us and a soothing for the soul. Your knowledge and wisdom, the dogs, the landscape, the garden and all the plants, the whole of it so healing. Thank you so much. 🙏🥰🌹🐶🐶🌺🌸🌻

Hope just being envigorates you ,you sounded so tired 💛Enjoy the buttercups, I'm off them at the moment having just cleared an invasion of them from the raspberry bed 😕Isn't there something magical about rose scent ,so frew of the modern roses have any xx

yup, being. Gardening is a perfect reminder of the pace we should keep anyways. Flowers, shrubs, trees, especially trees, don't grow at a fast pace and don't bloom at a fast pace.. Yet we sometimes go into the garden in a hurry to rush to water, rush to weed, rush to plant. oye. We get ourselves so overwhelmed with stuff we think is so urgent and really 99% isn't. Great reminder. thank you. good to see you as always.

Nice message - thanks! Lovely little interlude with Brock finding a spot to just be. 😊

Thanks for the reminder to just be and relax. Im also recuperating today from a whirlwind weekend of volunteer work, gardening and harvesting and I’m feeling tired! I’ll be communing with my plants each evening this week while harvesting pounds of black and red currants. I love being out among my native meadow and food plants every evening. It calms and also motivates me. Thanks for the lovely video. Your dogs make me smile.

Great message!

Magical all those wild flowers...we do not have in the Netherlands anymore! Here a poem about 'Being'...: 'Be Still and Know l am God. Be Still and Know that I am. Be Still and Know that. Be Still and Know. Be Still. Be. Love and light from The Netherlands❤

I only have a small balcony, but I have many different herbs and flowers there that I don't harvest but let bloom for the bees and other insects. I wish I had a garden as beautiful as yours in your beautiful country. Heavenly

Being is who we are, how we decided to define ourselves thousands of years ago. If we look into the root of the word Human, we find that a simile is humus - compost, or, earth. We chose to call ourselves beings of the earth back when we knew what that meant. This video was such a great reminder, and speaks to a primal need in each of us.

Love the film ❤ even the horse is scratching himself on the tone of the music ❤️ sometimes we need a holiday from the holiday, but it is good to be home ☘️❤️

Such great advice Terri. We all need to slow down and “just be”. Hugs! 💕

I love that, Being not Doing . I must learn to do this Terri , I always feel I have to do everything yesterday, thank you for the beautiful and calming video as always . Blessings xx

❤

Such a lovely message to start the day off. Thank you 💕🌿🌺🌹🌸

Thank you Terri and Lol for this beautiful and calm video I’m so guilty of not just ‘being’ living alone, running my garden and house is such hard work alongside my ‘paid’ job If only I could step off the treadmill and follow your path… That is my dream ….. Thank you for your inspiration and sharing your gorgeous pups with us Hope you wake tomorrow fully refreshed and you feel much better Greetings from Shropshire 🙏🏼🥰

Beautiful!

Thank you Teri…wonderful message… husband doing a great job on photography….love it all!!!!
