I Am #AliveAndThriving Today! || #IAmAliveChallenge || Daily Off-Grid Jungle Journal Entry: Day #1008 - Alive Chat Now Has a 4th Weekly Activity, and Hive Keychain Portfolio - GaiaYoga Gardens, Lower Puna, Far East Big Island, Hawai'i - May 1, 2025

I live naked and barefooted, very close to Earth and Nature, in an 18-acre, off-grid, clothing-optional, food-forest intentional community (GaiaYoga Gardens), way out in the jungles of Lower Puna, far East Big Island, Hawai'i, and I have for more than 6 years now. Although there are many challenges, I love my life, and I'm immensely grateful to live where and how I do, on my own terms! I would not want to live any other way! 😁🙏💚⚡💥🔥✴️✳️❇️👣🌱✨🤙

Warm greetings all! 😁🙏💚✨🤙

I'm happy to announce that thanks to @edgerik, who approached me about the idea, @alive.chat now has a fourth weekly community activity, a music-focused challenge, on Fridays! He's offering great prizes for sharing songs that make us feel #aliveandthriving, Pick the Song that makes you feel Aliveandthriving, May 02, 2025! The music challenge is already being very well received by the community, with a good amount of engagement, which is excellent to see.

With this new weekly community activity, the present @alive.chat schedule is now:

• Mondays: Share your 2025 goals and finish it together!, hosted by @cursephantom.

• Tuesdays: Let's stake and be ALIVE!, hosted by @cursephantom.

• Fridays: Pick the Song that makes you feel Aliveandthriving, hosted by @edgerik.

• Saturdays: Share Your Engagements - And Get Rewarded To Grow Your Network, hosted by @edgerik.

Thank you again so much for suggesting, and being willing to host an @alive.chat activity on Fridays, @edgerik, in addition to the one that you already host on Saturdays! Your contribution and support is greatly appreciated! If any of you reading this have an idea for an @alive.chat weekly activity or challenge that you're interested in hosting, reach out to me and let me know, and we'll make it happen!

In my asset management for the many Alive Tribe accounts, effectively and efficiently getting a full-asset overview, and quickly switching accounts to manage tokens, can sometimes be a bit of a challenge, especially when I have very limited time. That's where the magic of the Hive Keychain browser extension comes to the rescue, with its Portfolio page. I only discovered it a short time ago, and I've been very much appreciating it since.

Although I can't yet find a way to access it via the Hive Keychain mobile app (probably because it's done via an extension), it's easily accessible via the Hive Keychain browser extension, by clicking on the pie-chart icon just to the right of your total account value, which will open a new browser tab, and after collecting the data from all of the accounts that you've added to Keychain, it will display a list of all accounts with their holdings and stake for HIVE, HP, HBD, and all layer-2 tokens, with the values of all assets across layer 1 and layer 2, in any state (liquid, staked, delegated, or in Savings - it doesn't however show open market orders of assets in diesel/liquidity pools), for each account individually, and for all accounts together. So yeah, it's super useful!

Using the Hive Keychain extension's Portfolio page, it is now a very easy and quick process to see all assets across all accounts, and then switch accounts quickly via Keychain or BeeSwap, to then do what I need to do with any particular asset. Talk about convenient! Some discoveries really do make such a hugely beneficial differnce!

Yesterday, Thursday, I left the Flow House, after finishing up my Hive tasks, just a bit after 2:30PM, with going to help collect a truckload of large lava rocks over at our neighbor Jhoti's property for a project, being my first task. Once we were done with that, I took a shower (I got very sweaty carrying lava rocks in the sun...lol), and then a quick asset-management break up at the Flow House, before heading to Ano's nursery to help Alex and him to up-pot an assortment of sapling fruit trees, several being quite rare. We wrapped that up just before sunset, after which I headed back to the other side of the property to collect my jar of leftover superfood fire coffee from the Landing fridge, and then to make my way back to the Flow House to dive into my evening Hive tasks, and to catch up on my notifications. Although I still wasn't able to get fully caught up on then again (and I haven't been since Monday), I made a huge dent, and I actually finally got into the current day (last night at least) for the first time this week, which makes it far more probable that I will actually be able to get fully caught-up tonight. I stopped just a little after 12AM, and after some asset management, and a quick check on my Blurt notifications, I went to bed just before 12:45AM, a bit too late again. I woke up around 6:30AM, still feeling that I needed a bit more sleep, doing more asset management, starting on this post and on my entry for the Reflection Hunters Contest, heading to the Landing around 7:30AM to go make my superfood fire coffee in the Landing, and then returning to the Flow House to finish and publish My Entry for Reflection Hunters Contest: Round 217 - Sunny Sunday Sunflower Reflections, and to begin writing this post. It's now just after 12:45PM, so an excellent time to end this post, so that I may get to my few other important Hive tasks, before leaving the Flow House a bit later in the afternoon, to first focus on photography for these posts, straining and blending kefir (kefir-honey-cinnamon-cacao), and then community/land work. I deeply appreciate y'all so very much! Until tomorrow's incarnation of this post! Always forward, onward, upward, and whaleward, ho, together we go! 😁🙏💚✨🤙

2025 Life Goals

1.) Do regular integral practices again, alone or with others.

2.) Prepare regular batches of my medicinal teas collected from the land again.

3.) Make my plant nursery, and the gardens, beautiful again.

4.) Begin learning relevant coding/programming languages to more fully contribute to the sovereignty-driven technologies where I am active, like Arch Linux, Hive, Qortal, DeSo, and Bastyon.

All photos were taken with my Motorola G Play 2024 Android Phone.

Thank you all so much who have helped me get to where I am today, and allowing me to share more of the beauty and magic from my life and my world with you, and for your continuous appreciation and support! I am truly deeply grateful! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
