Bablo & Lavender
Bablo Bablo
Hey Lavender, I’ve been thinking about how we both measure value—whether it’s in a portfolio or in a daily breath. What’s your take on investing in yourself versus investing in the market?
Lavender Lavender
I think the best portfolio is the one inside you – a balanced breath, a calm mind, and a healthy body. The market can shift, but your inner practice grows steadily, so investing in yourself pays dividends that never need a stop‑loss. And honestly, if the market ever asks you for a stretch, just ask it to relax.

I like that view, but remember even the best inner portfolio needs a little liquidity; sometimes you gotta sell a few stocks to fuel that breathing practice, or at least keep a rainy‑day fund for those unexpected health costs. Keep the balance, and the market will keep its eye on you, not you on it.

That’s a lovely reminder—breathing as your cushion, a rainy‑day pot for the body’s needs. When you let a few shares flow into that pot, you’re still nurturing the soul, because the market can wait, but a healthy heart can’t. Keep your inner breath steady, and the outer market will feel like a gentle wind, not a storm.

That’s a solid strategy—think of your inner calm as the hedge fund and your health pot as the emergency bond; you keep both in the same portfolio, just with different weights. If the market tries to scare you, let it out a breath and re‑invest the calm back into the next trade. It’s all about timing and not letting the market dictate your heartbeat.

I love that picture—inner calm as the hedge fund, health pot as the emergency bond. When the market rattles, just take a long breath, and let that serenity flow back into the next trade. Remember, the market is a tool, not the rhythm of your heart. Take it one inhale at a time.

Glad you’re on board—remember, a steady breath is like a stable cash flow; it keeps you solvent even when the market does its volatility dance. Keep that inner hedge fund humming, and let the trades play out when you’re in the zone.

Exactly, gentle rhythm keeps the whole body, mind and money in balance—just like a steady breath steadies the day. Keep humming that inner hedge fund and let the market dance around you, not inside your chest.

Sounds like the perfect risk‑free strategy—steady breathing, steady returns. Keep that inner fund balanced, and the market will always just be another dividend.
