BH Sales Kennel Kelp CTFO Changing The Future Outcome

Welcome back, wellness seekers, to the BH Sales Kennel Kelp Holistic Healing Hour. I'm your host, Grandpa Bill. Today, we're moving beyond physical vitality and diving into cognitive fitness—the deep, integrated strength of the mind.As many of you know, I've been a dedicated student of Dr. Anthony Metivier's Magnetic Memory Method for years. This isn't just about passing a test; it's about building a robust, resilient mind. I've recently been mentoring my granddaughter, Adah, a college freshman, and her latest challenge has proven to be the most profound holistic exercise we've done: The Backward Walk from Metivier's advanced curriculum.Before we even begin the walk, we must remember the lesson of Peter of Ravenna. He taught us that our memory structures—our Palaces—must be real, finished, and stable. Adah chose her quiet church. This isn't superstition; it's holistic architecture. If your environment is chaotic, your mind will be chaotic. Ravenna demands a stable, moderate space so the mind can be still.Adah built four stations for her Political Science class, encoding the clauses of the 14th Amendment using PAO and the Major System. The images are striking—a Roller Skater laughing on a tight rope for Equal Protection, and the Tin Man dancing on noodles for Citizenship. They stir the emotions, as Ravenna instructed.The problem with the Forward Walk (Station 1 to 4) is that it's easy. It's a habit. Your brain is only saying, "Okay, I remember Station 1, so I'll automatically look for 2." This creates a weak, linear chain. If you forget Station 3, the rest of the chain breaks.The Backward Walk—from the end to the beginning—is the ultimate cognitive diagnostic tool.When I ask Adah to go Backward to the Beginning of the Memory Palace, I'm forcing her mind to do three things, each with massive holistic benefits:Dismantle the Chain: It proves that every piece of knowledge is directly and independently anchored to its specific Place, not to the piece before it. This promotes a non-linear, resilient thinking pattern, which is crucial for problem-solving in life, not just academia.Test the Architecture: By reversing the process, we expose any weak links or "clutter" in the Memory Palace—the very chaos Ravenna warned us against. If Adah hesitates between the Altar Rail and the Baptismal Font, we know the place wasn't truly mastered, and we must revisit the station distance or imagery.Achieve Deep Presence: Dr. Metivier always stresses the three-breath pause at each station. In the reverse walk, this pause is non-negotiable. It forces deep active recall and anchors you squarely in the present moment, turning a memory exercise into a powerful form of meditation and mental centering.Holistic healing isn't just about avoiding disease; it's about achieving mastery and calm. When Adah successfully sprints backward—from the Roller Skater back to the Tin Man—she doesn't just feel relieved; she feels profound confidence. She knows the information is integrated into the core of her mind.This ability to command your own knowledge, to retrieve information from any angle under pressure, is the ultimate antidote to mental stress and anxiety. It's about being the director of your mental theatre, not just an audience member waiting for the play to start.So, I encourage you all to try this cognitive strength test in your own Palaces today. Choose three simple stations, encode three easy facts, and then go Backward to the Beginning. Feel the effort, feel the resistance, and then feel the immense reward of true, integrated knowledgeThank you for tuning in to the BH Sales Kennel Kelp Holistic Healing Hour. Until next time, stay grounded, stay magnetic, and keep those cognitive pathways clear.#TheBackwardWalk, #MetivierMethod, #PeterOfRavenna ,#CognitiveFitness ,#HolisticMemory, #GrandpaBill, #BHHealingHour, #MagneticMind,The Ravenna Foundation: Stability FirstThe Dissolution of Linear Thinking The Healing Power of Mastery

November Review-The BH Sales Kennel Kelp Holistic Healing Hour today Grandpa Bill welcomes repeat monthly guest and co-host of The Wellness Wisdom Podcast Tam Veilleux, creator of The Energy Almanac (2025-2027). In this deep dive, Tam illuminates the intense astrological currents of November 2025. We look at how the Mercury Retrograde in Sagittarius/Scorpio forces a vital review of our beliefs and secrets, how the Uranus re-entry into Taurus creates a final shake-up of our values and security, and how the multi-year themes of intuitive leadership and closure are playing out right now. A must-watch for anyone ready for a profound energetic shift.Grandpa Bill Asks: 1What three specific areas of my life is the Mercury Retrograde in November actually good for, according to The Energy Almanac?2: How do the major astrological themes of 2025 set the stage for the energies Tam predicts for 2026 and 2027?* Grandpa Bill Asks: Are you prepared for the final major shake-up to your security? Tune in to find out what Uranus in Taurus is demanding one last time! ➡️ [ @billholt8792  ]Focus on Almanac & Future:

Grandpa Bill & monthly Guest Byron Athene talk-Logic-Establishing the Core Conflict1.    "Defining the Gap": We've talked about the ideal of Formal Logic versus the reality of Human Logic. Can you explain that difference in terms of a clinical symptom? What does it look like when a patient's 'psychological logic' completely overrides objective reality, and how much emotional pain does that conflict cause?Logic in Modern Therapy (CBT)2.    "Cognitive Restructuring": Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is largely about identifying and challenging illogical thinking patterns. Could you give us a concrete example of a common cognitive distortion—like 'all-or-nothing thinking'—and walk us through how a therapist logically 'disproves' that internal rule for the client?Logic in Historical Therapy (Psychoanalysis)3.    "The Logic of Dreams": You mentioned Freud's Primary Process Logic which governs the unconscious. How is the 'logic' we see in a client's dreams or neurotic symptoms actually a form of illogical problem-solving for the unconscious mind, and how does tracing that 'logic' help the analyst?Logic and Development4.    "Regressing Under Stress": Piaget showed us that Formal Operational Logic (the ability to reason hypothetically) is a late developmental achievement. When an adult is under extreme stress or trauma, do they often emotionally or cognitively regress to a simpler, more concrete logic? And if so, how does that regression make their problems seem inescapable?Logic and Emotion5.    "The Logic of Feeling": Many people use the phrase, "It felt true, so it must be true." How do you help a client separate the validity of a feeling (the feeling itself is real) from the validity of the conclusion that feeling suggests?Cultural and Contextual Logic6.    "External Logic": Logic is often treated as purely internal, but how much is a person's 'logical' framework actually shaped by their family history, cultural background, or societal environment? Can a perfectly logical person in one culture be considered wildly illogical in another?7.    "Teaching the Logic Habit": For our listeners who want to start thinking more clearly and suffering less from their own internal illogic, what is one simple daily mental exercise or habit they can adopt to begin strengthening their Formal Logic muscles and challenge their ingrained cognitive biases?#ByronAthene, #Logic, #Philosophy, #CriticalThinking ,#LogicalFallacies, #Rationality, #Mindset, #SelfImprovement, #CognitiveBias, #YouTuberInterview, #Podcast, #GrowthMindset, #PersonalGrowth, #AppliedLogic,

Grandpa Bill simply smiled and said"But look at how high you've grown, Adah," he replied. "A tree that grows too fast is weak. Yours is strong, rooted in daily effort. Those tiny tools are turning your wobbles into powerful steps. Keep growing, little scholar. Keep growing.

The BH Sales Kennel Kelp Holistic Healing Hour: Wellness Wisdom ShowGrandpa Bill -Pisces, Narrating the Analysis:"Welcome back, seekers! Grandpa Bill here, closing out October with Tam Veilleux's Energy Almanac in hand. If the first half was about digging up our fears, this second half was about re-planting our roots for long-term growth and getting a spiritual re-calibration. The overarching theme of shifting 'Fear into Wisdom' really crystalized in the final two weeks.The first major shift came mid-month when Pluto stationed Direct in Aquarius (around the 13th/14th, though its energy was strongly felt after the 16th). Pluto's power is huge. After months of inner reflection, this transit pushed forward necessary social, technological, and collective shifts. For us, it meant the long-overdue shifts in power dynamics—in our businesses, our families, even in our communities—started to gain momentum. As a Pisces, I felt this as a powerful surge of collective subconscious change; a massive wave we had to ride with awareness.Then came the beautiful New Moon in Libra (around the 21st). This was the cosmic clean slate! Following the intense Aries Full Moon, this was the moment to set intentions for balanced relationships, new agreements, and harmony. It's the perfect energy for anyone looking to reset partnerships in business or at home—a true win-win opportunity that Venus's earlier entry into Libra had paved the way for.Right on its heels, we plunged fully into the intensity with the Sun Entering Scorpio (around the 22nd), marking the official start of the Season of Transformation. Our focus turns deep, intense, and to the emotional truth. This is when we look at shared resources, intimacy, and the shadow aspects we're still confronting—perfectly echoing Tam's monthly theme.But for me, as a Pisces, the most resonant event was Neptune Re-entering Pisces (Retrograde) on the 22nd. This is a Spiritual Re-calibration. Neptune is our co-ruler, and its dip back into its home sign brought back themes of dreams, compassion, and the subtle realms for a second look. It was a time to check our spiritual boundaries and clear up any illusions that were still clouding our intuition. It truly grounded the holistic healing we talk about right here on the show.Finally, the month closes out with Mercury entering Sagittarius (around the 29th) in opposition to Uranus. This opens the mind, encourages the expansion of faith and trust, and disrupts old thought patterns for one last burst of authentic self-expression. We end the month not just having faced our fears, but having successfully alchemized them into genuine, long-term wisdom."Grandpa Bill's Pisces Energy Almanac Recap (October 16th - 31st, 2025)TitleTransformation Finale: Scorpio Season, Neptune's Reset, & Pluto's Power Surge#,TransformationFinale #PlutoDirect #NewMoonLibra, #SpiritualReset, #OctoberAstrology,#New Moon Focus,T#NewMoonMagic #LibraNewMoon #RelationshipReset, #BalancedLiving, #EnergeticReset,#Planetary Shifts,#Pluto Direct & Neptune's Dip, #Harnessing Massive Change, #Inner Alignment,#PlutoInAquarius, #NeptuneInPisces, #CosmicCalibration, #IntuitiveAlignment, #Astrology2025,#Scorpio Season Focus,#ScorpioSeason, #EmotionalTruth, #ShadowWorkHealing, #Depth and Growth, #HolisticHealingHour,#Holistic/Healing Focus, #ClaimYourPower, #FearToWisdom, #WellnessWisdom #GrandpaBill, #Tam Veilleux,

First say to yourself what you would be; and then do what you have to do.—Epictetus, "Discourses"Language is a powerful thing... a word tossed in the air can either build a fortress of confidence or sting like a summer hornet." Grandpa Bill's poem: Call me silly, call me smart... But if you toss a name that stings, it flaps its wings... and ouch, it zings!Today, we're talking about kindness, niceness, and the holistic medicine of good words. It's not just about manners; it's about optimizing our health and the relationship we have with our companions.The Vagus Nerve Connection: Explain that when we receive a kind word, our bodies release feel-good chemicals like oxytocin (the "cuddle hormone") and dopamine. This calms the vagus nerve, lowering heart rate and blood pressure—a true holistic healing response.The Ripple Effect: When we speak kindly to others, we experience the same benefit. Kindness is a two-way street for wellness.Kindness to Our Pets: Our dogs may not understand every word, but they absolutely grasp our tone and intention. A gentle voice for "Good boy!" or "Stay close" fosters a sense of security and strengthens their attachment to us. Contrast this with a sharp, angry tone which can elevate their stress hormones (cortisol).The Inner Critic: The harshest words are often the ones we say to ourselves ("I'm an idiot," "I'm always messing up"). This self-talk is toxic to our holistic health.BH Sales Kennel Kelp Tip: Challenge listeners to use the same gentle tone they use with their pet when they talk to themselves. Instead of "I failed," try: "That was a learning opportunity. I'll be kinder to myself next time."Affirmations as a Supplement: Encourage the daily use of simple, kind affirmations to reprogram the mind. (e.g., "I am capable," "I am enough," "I am centered.")Recap: Kind words are not just an accessory; they are a fundamental part of our holistic well-being and the cornerstone of a trusting relationship with our loved ones and our pets.Closing Challenge: For the next 24 hours, commit to replacing one harsh word (spoken or thought) with one gentle, kind one. Listen to the difference it makes in your body and your relationships."Thank you for joining me on the BH Sales Kennel Kelp Holistic Healing Hour! Choose your words wisely, and until next time, live kindly."#KennelKelpPodcast, #BHSalesKennelKelpHolisticHealingHour,#Wellness,#Kindness#PowerOfWords, #Niceness, #SelfCompassion, #MentalWellness,#HumanPetBond, #DogWellness, #KindDogTraining, #PositiveReinforcement, #DogTalk,#KennelKelpPodcast, #BHSales KennelKelpHolisticHealingHour,#KindnessMatters #PowerOfWords #Niceness #SelfCompassion #MentalWellnessPet Focus#HumanPetBond #DogWellness #KindDogTraining #PositiveReinforcement #DogTalk

The Dissolution of Linear Thinking GB will create a storybook. Grandpa Bill and my 18-year-old granddaughter and college freshman. Here is the first page:Grandpa Bill, with a twinkle in his eye and a lifetime of stories etched onto his face, sat across from his granddaughter, Adah. She was eighteen, brimming with the nervous excitement of a college freshman, her textbooks piled high beside her. "Adah," he began, his voice a warm rumble, "what if I told you that just walking through your Memory Palace from Station 1 to 10 proves absolutely nothing?" Adah, momentarily distracted by a particularly intimidating biology diagram, looked up, a curious smile playing on her lips. She knew Grandpa Bill always had a trick up his sleeve, especially when it came to his beloved "Magnetic Memory Method."https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/bh-sales-kennel-kelp-holistic-healing-hour/id1479920722#TheBackwardWalk, #Metivier Method, #PeterOfRavenna, #CognitiveFitness, #HolisticMemory, #GrandpaBill ,#BHSalesKennelKelpHolisticHealingHour, #MagneticMind,Creative Solutions for Holistic HealthcareHealer.comOur program includes: 4 online course modules Monthly webinars with all the latest scienceMy Patriot SupplyDon't Risk Disaster.

The Intensity is Real, But Your Power is Greater.Acknowledge the current intense environment (mentally, emotionally, globally).Reintroduce the core belief: When you are soul-centered, you are more powerful than anything.The problem: We absorb "heavier energies" without realizing it.The Core Practice: 5-to-10 Conscious Cycles.Break down the simple, powerful formula (5-10 breaths).Affirmation Focus: Dedicate each in-breath to calm and centering ("Breathing in, I calm my body, mind, and emotions.") and each out-breath to release ("Breathing out, I release all heavier energies and attachments...").The Command: Lock in the shielding and safety ("I am centered. I am safe. I am surrounded and infused with divine light and shielding. And SO IT IS.").Energetic Inventory & Regulation.Explain the concept: Continuously stay aware of what is yours and not yours—mentally and emotionally.This is not just for spiritual folks; this is nervous system regulation at its finest. When you release what isn't yours, your system calms down.The Cleanest Frequency: Nature.Why Nature is a non-negotiable step. It is the least contaminated, cleanest frequency on the planet right now.Practical call to action: Walk barefoot, sit by a tree, simply Breathe in the natural air. This simple act recenters your entire spirit.Conclusion: Keep Returning Here.Reiterate that Breath is the connect point, the clearing, and the recentering.Encouragement to practice daily, especially during moments of intensity.Wim Hof breathing techniques, which focus on deep, intentional breath cycles, can help regulate the autonomic nervous system, a key component in managing stress and emotional energy, which directly correlates with the "conscious in and out breaths" and "nervous system regulation" mentioned in your notes. Join Grandpa Bill for your daily dose of holistic wisdom, health, and high-vibe wellness.

meditation mnemonic-I want it said of me by those who knew me best, that I always plucked a thistle and planted a flower where I thought a flower would grow.—Abraham LincolnIt's like the game of hide and seek,Where silence hides and shadows peek.Truth counts slow behind closed eyes,While guilt runs off in thin disguise.The seeker's hand sweeps through the air,To catch the scent of what's not there.A breath is held beneath the floor,The game is not a game anymore.It's like the game of hide and seek,Where silence hides and shadows peek.Truth counts slow behind closed eyes,While guilt runs off in thin disguise.But every corner has its cost,And every soul who must be lost.The wooden door creaks, giving way,To light that ruins night and day.It's like the game of hide and seek,Where silence hides and shadows peek.Truth counts slow behind closed eyes,While guilt runs off in thin disguise.You find a place inside your head,Where secret fears are safely fed.And though the call is loud and near,You hope they never find you here.(Focus on the Tension/The Reveal):(Focus on the Personal/Internal Conflict):I call it "The Game."It's a game of our own consciousness, you see. And it sounds a little something like this:It's like the game of hide and seek,Where silence hides and shadows peek.Truth counts slow behind closed eyes,While guilt runs off in thin disguise.Think about that for a minute. That truth—our authentic, healthy self—it's counting. It's waiting for us to stop running. And what is running? It's the guilt, the shame, the little worries we let dress up and look like urgent business. They're distractions, plain and simple.We spend so much time building fortifications for these feelings. We hide them, hoping they'll just go away.You find a place inside your head,Where secret fears are safely fed.And though the call is loud and near,You hope they never find you here.That "place inside your head" is the default mode network we talk about, folks. It's where the internal chatter lives. The "never find you here" is the fear of being vulnerable, the fear that if we truly connect our heart and our mind—if we achieve that lovely heart-brain coherence—we might have to face those fears we've been nurturing.But the real secret, my friends, is that the Seeker is you. That truth counting slow behind your eyes? That's your breath. That's your centered self. The game ends when you simply stop running and allow your own light to find you in the hiding place. That's the work of heart-brain coherence—it turns the seeker into the found.The Seeker's Burden: If your "Truth counts slow behind closed eyes," what daily rituals are you using right now that actually hinder your ability to finally open them and see yourself clearly?Guilt's Disguise: We know guilt "runs off in thin disguise." What is the single most common procrastination habit that you use as a disguise to avoid facing a deeper, unresolved internal conflict?The Palace Blueprint: Your college lecture hall is a perfect Memory Palace. What is the one specific, high-stress academic concept (like Organic Chemistry nomenclature) you struggle with right now that we can turn into a ridiculous, unforgettable PAO image?Beyond the Grades: After memorizing a long list of facts, how can you immediately leverage that newfound "Heart-Brain Coherence" to make a difficult, real-world decision outside of academia?Grandpa Bill Overviews The Coherence ResetAre you tired of playing "The Game" of stress?

Friends-There's music in all things, if men had ears: Their earth is but an echo of the spheres.”—Lord Byron, "Don Juan"Welcome back to The BH Sales Kennel Kelp Holistic Healing Hour. I'm your host, Grandpa Bill, and last week we laid the foundation for a truly meaningful life by talking about the Second Self—Aristotle's ideal of Virtuous Friendship.""Today, we're going to zoom out and look at the ultimate goal of all that virtuous action and profound connection. We're talking about the Greek concept that defines the entire holistic approach: Eudaimonia.""It's a word that's often mistranslated, but its true meaning is the key to lasting contentment. Let's get into it.""Let's start with the word itself. I want you to say it with me, nice and slow: 'Yoo-dye-moh-NEE-uh.'"Pronunciation: Yoo-dye-moh-NEE-uhDefinition: Eudaimonia (εὐδαιμονία) is often translated as 'happiness.' But that is shallow and misleading. 'Happiness' in English sounds temporary, based on external circumstance or fleeting feeling."The Greek root of the word tells the real story: 'Eu-' means good, and 'daimon' means spirit or genius or inner self.""So, Eudaimonia literally means having a good guiding spirit or, more powerfully, 'living well and doing well.' It is a state of human flourishing.""Imagine two people: One wins the lottery, throws wild parties for a year, and feels happy. The other is a dedicated scholar, a caring parent, and a generous volunteer. They live a life of commitment, struggle, and deep purpose, and they feel a deep sense of meaning.""The first person has 'happiness.' The second person has Eudaimonia. It's not a burst of joy; it's the deep satisfaction that comes from realizing your highest potential and living in alignment with your best self—that Virtuous Self we discussed last time."The Wisdom Segment: Eudaimonia DefinedThe Narrative: Flourishing, Not FeelingPhilosophical#Eudaimonia ,#FlourishingLife, #Aristotle, #AncientWisdom,Self-Improvement#LifePurpose ,#MeaningfulLife, #VirtueEthics Podcast/Wellness#HolisticHealth, #GrandpaBill, #WellnessJourney, #LiveWellDoWell,Conclusion and Call to Action"So, your challenge this week is to assess your own life with the lens of Eudaimonia.""Ask yourself: Am I truly flourishing? Am I engaged in activities and surrounded by relationships that are developing my best self? Are my choices leading me toward that deep, abiding sense of 'living well and doing well?'""Prioritize the friends who inspire you toward virtue. Invest your time in the meaningful actions that define your purpose. That is the true blueprint for Eudaimonia.""I'm Grandpa Bill. Thank you for joining me on The BH Sales Kennel Kelp Holistic Healing Hour. We'll talk again soon."

Today I want to share one of my favorite tools — something that's helped me not only in wellness and business, but in how I live my legacy.It's called the Major System (sometimes paired with the PAO method). In simple terms: you convert numbers into consonant-sounds, then you turn those into vivid images. These images become anchors in your mind.For example:0 = soft c / s / z → I use “Chaz Bono…”1 = d/t → “Danny Thomas…”… and so on.So when you see a number like 66, you don't just see “sixty-six”. You see “Jousting championships in shining armor” (J/SH sounds). Instantly memorable.Why does this matter for your health & business? Because every goal you track, every habit you build, every legacy you plan — is a number or sequence of numbers: age, metrics, targets, dates. If you memorise them powerfully, you engage them powerfully.Want to recall your daily supplement list? Use a number → Want to remember a business target?

Grandpa Bill here, diving deep into the celestial waters with a recap of the first half of October. As a Pisces, the month has felt like a powerful undercurrent—a spiritual re-calibration, as Tam's Energy Almanac hints. The theme Tam highlights this month is about shifting Fear into Wisdom, a process that demands we be fully present... and oh boy, did the cosmos deliver the pressure to be present!The first half of the month was all about shining a spotlight on our most intense truths. That Full Supermoon in Aries (around the 7th) was a big, fiery blast, right? For me, as an empathic Pisces, it wasn't comfortable. It brought up those fears and shadows, especially concerning how I assert myself versus how I collaborate with others. It was a culmination moment—a brilliant light forcing us to look at those dark corners.Then, around the 6th, Mercury plunged into Scorpio. Tam's Almanac nails this: Depth in Communication. Surface conversations are over. This is when our discussions—like the ones we have right here on the show about health and well-being—have to go beneath the surface. For me, that meant a deeper look into the shadows I might be projecting. It was an investigation into my own psyche, pushing me to find the raw, honest dialogue that truly heals.The Almanac also mentions Mercury and Mars at the apex of a Yod, which is like a cosmic finger pointing to unavoidable choices and sharp conversations. We can't stay on the fence. We had to embrace the discomfort—that feeling that everything is moving a little too fast or getting too real.Finally, the whole period was setting the stage for Venus's move into Libra (around the 13th), a beautiful, diplomatic energy. After all that deep, sometimes uncomfortable soul-searching, the cosmos offers a chance for Harmony in Relationships and a renewed focus on beauty and collaboration. It's the spiritual payoff for doing the deep work the Super moon and Scorpio energy demanded.The takeaway, as I see it, is that the Universe gave us a shovel to dig up our deepest fears, only to then give us the grace to re-plant those roots in more fertile, balanced soil.

In this week's double-feature, my granddaughter Adah and I tackle Essential Oils History 101—but we aren't just reading dates. We are building a powerful new wing in Adah's Mnemonic Memory Palace to make 6,500 years of aromatic history stick forever.The true power of essential oils isn't found in a recent fad; it's rooted in ancient, global healing systems. We track the evolution of aromatic use through four essential stops:The Pharaoh's Roll (4500 BC, Egypt): Our Memory Palace journey begins at the Front Door where we use the Major System code 45 (R-L / Roll). We picture a Pharaoh rolling a giant stone of Lapis Lazuli. This image encodes the earliest ritual and embalming use of essential oils like Frankincense and Myrrh.The Distiller's Toast (10th/11th Century, Avicenna): Next, in the Kitchen, we honor the man who revolutionized oil purity: Avicenna. Our mnemonic shows him toasting (code 10 / D-S) his hands over a fire and tending to a giant Distiller (code 11 / D-T). This is the birthplace of modern distillation!The Chemist's Tip (1928, Gattefossé): Moving to the Study Desk, we encounter René-Maurice Gattefossé (pronounced Gah-teh-foh-say), who coined "aromatherapy" in 1928. To remember the date, we visualize Gattefossé in a panic, tipping (code 19) a beaker of lavender onto a Navy (code 28) uniform. Accident turned to discovery!The Doctor's Roar (WWII, Dr. Valnet): Our final stop on the Balcony brings us to Dr. Valnet. During the 1940s, he successfully used oils to treat wounded soldiers. Valnet is roaring (code 44 / R-R) at a giant Radio (code 44) to share his findings with the world.Whether you're a college student like Adah or a fellow "Silver Streaker" looking to sharpen your cognitive edge, the Magnetic Memory Method works. Tune into the podcast for the deep healing wisdom and watch the YouTube video to see the PAO system brought to life!Listen to the full episode on the BH Sales Kennel Kelp Holistic Healing Hour, and watch the visual mnemonic demonstration on YouTube @billholt8792!Why History Matters to Holistic HealthMaster the MemoryEssential oils 101-Our journey begins not with modern labs, but with the cradle of civilization, tracing the use of aromatic materials back nearly 6,500 years.

It's Grandpa Bill, and I want to start today by asking you to look down the road with me. Not just tomorrow, or next week, but five, maybe even ten years from now. What does your ultimate vision look like?Here at the Kennel Kelp Hour, I see a future where our conversations—about our pups' health, about our own well-being—are just the catalyst for something much grander. A world where we can socialize, have fun, and truly live life to the fullest, but where prioritizing our health is the very foundation of that joy, not an afterthought.But let's be honest with each other, friends. Are we sometimes caught in a kind of hypnotic trance of mediocrity? When we ramble on with a reckless mind, letting their voice—the noise, the distraction, the fear—dominate our inner world? We are. And in those moments, our hearts and souls do remain silent.We must consistently seek balance. Our own gifted energy healing, our heart and soul connection, can be robotically controlled by others without that whatever light—God, Spirituality, the Universe—we individually live by. But when we work in synchronicity with that light, that connection remains not only a powerful message, but a very powerful medicine. The languages we are taught only speak to our minds. It's time to speak to our whole selves."https://youtu.be/qc87XcA67ug?si=gzv8WSnm1Fe3W6hwHealer.com (https://www.HealerCBD.com/?ref=11) Our program includes:4 online course modulesMonthly webinars with all the latest scienceMy Patriot Supply (https://www.mypatriotsupply.com/?_ef_transaction_id=&oid=1&affid=520&creative_id=29) Don't Risk Disaster.

Logic Mr. Spock-Grandpa Bill and monthly guest, Psychotherapist and Psychoanalyst Byron Athene, will tackle the letter L: Logic. After exploring 'Knowledge,' they dive into the crucial difference between the perfect rules of Formal Logic (how we ought to think) and the messy, emotional terrain of Psychological Logic (how we actually think). Byron will explore the historical rift between logic and psychology (Psychologism), the "illogical" rules governing the Unconscious Mind (Freud), and how Cognitive Biases become a client's own faulty internal 'logic.' Tune in to learn how to map your own mind's reasoning and distinguish emotional truth from objective validity.Grandpa Bill Asks:"Formal vs. Emotional": Do you more often accept a conclusion because it logically follows from the premises, or because it feels emotionally comfortable or familiar?

What worked for You in September 2025? What Didn't Work for You in September?he last week of September (approximately Sept 21-30) acts as a pivot, integrating Shift to Libra Energy: The Sun moved into Libra around September 22nd (Autumn Equinox in the Northern Hemisphere), shifting the collective focus from Virgo's analytical, service-oriented, and detail-driven themes to Libra's focus on balance, relationships, fairness, and aesthetics.Solar Eclipse Integration (Virgo): The week begins with the immediate aftermath and integration of the Partial Solar Eclipse in Virgo (around Sept 21-22). This eclipse emphasized a clean break or fresh start in areas of daily routine, health, work habits, and practical service.Karmic/Psychological Closure (Eclipse Season): September's overall theme was marked by an eclipse season (Lunar Eclipse in Pisces, Solar Eclipse in Virgo), bringing immense pressure for closure, release, and transformation of deep-seated karmic or psychological patterns.Venus in Virgo's Detail Focus: Venus, the planet of love and values, spent the latter part of the month in Virgo, making relationships and financial matters subject to critical analysis, refinement, and service-based expressions of love before moving on.Mars in Scorpio Intensity: Mars, the planet of action and drive, moved into intense Scorpio near the week's start. This marks a shift from a potentially agreeable approach to action to a more deeply focused, strategic, and power-aware drive, especially around shared resources or intimacy (Mars enters Scorpio around Sept 22nd).Mental Shift to Diplomacy: Mercury's movement into diplomatic Libra mid-month meant the final week's communication and thinking favored objectivity, tact, and seeking consensus—a welcome break from the hyper-critical tendencies of Mercury in Virgo earlier in September.Saturn Retrograde's Boundary Review: Saturn in Pisces, still retrograde, kept the pressure on for a final review of personal and emotional boundaries and the structures supporting spiritual or creative pursuits, tying into the water-sign theme of the Lunar Eclipse.Uranus Retrograde's Internal Rebellion: Uranus retrograde (in Gemini) continued to direct energy for internal mental rebellion, illuminating restrictive thought patterns and supporting unconventional ideas, adding a surprise element to the week's conversations.Air Element Grand Trine/Kite: The week featured a powerful configuration (Sun in Libra trine Uranus in Gemini trine Pluto in Aquarius), indicating a flow of innovative thinking, social breakthroughs, and easy movement for ideas and progressive concepts within relationships and community.A Period of Rebalancing: Overall, the last week functioned as a necessary period of rebalancing—shifting from the heavy, deep, release-focused energy of the eclipses and the hard work of Virgo into tCreative Solutions for Holistic HealthcareHealer.comOur program includes: 4 online course modules Monthly webinars with all the latest scienceMy Patriot SupplyDon't Risk Disaster.

Wim Hof-This is an exploration of how memory techniques can shape character. Based on a lesson between Grandpa Bill and his granddaughter Adah, this experience shows how daily mnemonics—mental shortcuts—can help us practice complex virtues like empathy and generosity until they become second nature.A Lesson in the LibraryThe journey begins with a simple, everyday moment: a college student struggling with a problem, and a grandfather's gentle guidance. This is the story that sparked the lesson.The ObservationAdah was in the campus library, hunched over her laptop. A classmate she didn't know well was at the next table, staring blankly at a complex Java coding problem. Adah saw the classmate's shoulders slump, and a frustrated sigh escaped their lips.The PromptGrandpa Bill sat down beside her. "That look on her face... it reminds me of a lesson we need to create a mnemonic for today. Today's lesson is a 'two-in-one' special on Empathy and Generosity."The InsightUsing the mnemonics he provided, Adah looked at her classmate again. She realized the stress wasn't just about a coding problem—it was about frustration and feeling lost. She saw the problem from a new perspective.The ActionRemembering the two mental images, Adah turned to her classmate. "Hey," she said softly, "that's a tough one. I just learned that same code. Do you want me to help you debug it?" Her classmate looked up, surprised and relieved. The lesson was complete.The Mnemonic ToolkitGrandpa Bill's method combines two powerful memory systems: the Major System for converting numbers to sounds, and the Person-Action-Object (PAO) system for creating vivid, memorable stories.The Major System: Numbers to SoundsThis system links numbers (0-9) to specific consonant sounds. This is the foundation for creating memorable words from numbers. Click a number below to see its sound.0123456789Select a number to learn its sound.The PAO System: Creating the StoryNext, we use those sounds to create a memorable Person-Action-Object (PAO) trio. This turns an abstract concept into a concrete, visual story. Click the cards to see how Adah's mnemonics were built.VirtueEmpathy(Click to deconstruct)Number 3 = 'M' SoundPerson: MedicAction: MappingObject: a Mood"A Medic is Mapping a Mood."VirtueGenerosity(Click to deconstruct)Number 9 = 'P'/'B' SoundPerson: PilotAction: ProvidingObject: a Pair of Helping Hands"A Pilot is Providing a Pair of Helping Hands."Put it into PracticeNow it's your turn. Read the scenario below and think about how empathy and generosity can be applied. Click the buttons to reveal how Adah might approach the situation using her mental toolkit.The Scenario:You overhear a friend talking about how stressed they are. They have a big presentation coming up, but they're also working a part-time job and are completely overwhelmed and falling behind schedule.Apply EmpathyApply GenerosityEmpathy in Action (The Medic):Instead of just hearing "I'm stressed," you try to map their mood. You recognize it's not just about the presentation; it's the feeling of being trapped and exhausted. You understand their perspective beyond the surface-level problem.Generosity in Action (The Pilot):Knowing how they feel, you offer a pair of helping hands. You could offer to run through the presentation with them, help proofread their slides, or even just bring them a coffee. The help you provide is specific because your empathy guided you.". This storybook is for an 18-year-old reader and explores how memory techniques can shape character.

Global exposure, and repeat monthly guests continue.welcome back to the BH Sales Kennel Kelp Holistic Healing Hour, with your host, Grandpa Bill. Today, we're going to talk about something that can lift a huge weight off our shoulders—taking back control.We've all been there. Worrying about the past, stressing about the future. It's like our minds are on a hamster wheel, running and running but getting nowhere. We're all human, and those feelings are normal. But what if I told you there's a simple, powerful way to get off that wheel?It's a plan. A step-by-step plan.When you're worried about something, it often feels big and overwhelming. It's a dark cloud on the horizon. But when you break that big, scary cloud into a series of small, manageable steps, it loses its power. You go from feeling helpless to feeling in control.Think about it this way: a big, daunting task is like a staircase with 100 steps you can't see the top of. That's a lot to think about, right? You might get tired just looking at it. But what if you just focus on the very next step? And then the next one? And then the one after that? Before you know it, you're halfway up the stairs.This isn't just about big projects. It can be for anything that's causing you worry.Here's a simple three-step plan you can use today:Identify the Concern: Grab a notepad or just think about it in your head. What's the one thing that's been weighing on you? Maybe it's a doctor's appointment you're nervous about, or a family visit that feels stressful. Acknowledge it, and name it.Break It Down: Now, take that big concern and break it into the very first, smallest, most manageable steps you can take. For example, if you're worried about a doctor's visit, your first step might be "call to confirm the appointment." Your next step might be "write down a list of questions I have for the doctor." These are tiny, simple things.Take Action, No Matter How Small: Do the first step. Right now, if you can. If you can't, write it down and put it somewhere you'll see it. The act of completing that single, small step sends a powerful message to your brain: "I'm in control. I've got this." This action is the antidote to helplessness. It's what stops the cycle of rumination and anxiety.So, whether you're a Silver Streaker worried about a new fitness routine or a young listener anxious about a school project, remember: a plan is your path from helplessness to empowerment. Don't just worry about the mountain; start by picking up a single stone. And I promise you, that first small step will make all the difference."BH Sales Kennel Kelp Holistic Healing Hour: The Power of a PlanGrandpa Bill's Guide to Letting Go: How a Plan Conquers WorryFrom Helpless to Hopeful: The Antidote to Anxiety is ActionGrandpa Bill's Golden Rule: A Step-by-Step Guide to Peace of MindWorry-Proof Your Life: The Secret to Taking Back ControlThe Silver Streaker's Plan for a Calm Life#GrandpaBillHolt,#HolisticHealingHour,#BHSalesKennelKelpHolisticHealingHour,#SilverStreakers,#Health and Wellness,#MentalHealth,#StressRelief,#AnxietyManagement,#TakeAction,#PlanYourLife,#Mindfulness,#Empowerment,#HolisticHealth,#PodcastForLife,#AgingGracefully,

Adah Bill HoltAdah sat at her desk, staring at a textbook on Portland's history. Her brow was furrowed, not with frustration, but with the sheer volume of it all. The pages were a dense jumble of dates and names, a tangled knot of information she needed to internalize for her history class. How could anyone make it all stick? She sighed, closing the book and pulling out her phone.Adah opened her eyes, back in the real Old Port. The city no longer felt like a collection of dusty facts. It was a living, breathing story, a palace built in her mind, with rooms and hallways filled with people, actions, and objects. She smiled at Grandpa Bill, a deep sense of gratitude and connection passing between them. The history was hers now, a part of her and her home.#mnemonics,#fictional novels,#Portland, Maine,#BHSalesKennelKelpHolisticHealingHour,

How has this lesson influenced your own spiritual journey?What advice would you give to viewers who are seeking to deepen their own spiritual understanding and connection to the world.Vaughn Meader: A Famous JFK ImpersonatorVaughn Meader was a renowned American comedian and actor who gained widespread fame during the early 1960s for his uncanny impersonation of President John F. Kennedy. His comedy albums, such as "First Family," "Meet Me in the Bathroom," and "That Was Then... This Is Now," were massive commercial successes, capturing the public's imagination with Meader's spot-on imitations of Kennedy's voice, mannerisms, and even his signature accent.Vaughn Meader's Impact on ComedyVaughn Meader's rise to fame was a direct result of the public's fascination with President John F. Kennedy. His ability to capture the essence of the president's personality and delivery made him a cultural phenomenon. His comedy albums sold millions of copies, and he appeared on numerous television shows and radio programs.Meader's success helped to popularize the art of political satire and impressionism. His work inspired a generation of comedians who would go on to use their talents to comment on current events and political figures.Here are a few key points about Meader's impact:Pioneered Political Satire: Meader's comedic approach to political figures helped to establish a new genre of humor.Cultural Icon: His albums became cultural touchstones, reflecting the mood and attitudes of the early 1960s.Influenced Future Comedians: Meader's success inspired countless comedians to explore political satire and impressionism in their own work.Meader's comedic talent extended beyond JFK impersonations. He also performed impressions of other notable figures of the time, including Lyndon B. Johnson, Richard Nixon, and even the British Prime Minister Harold Macmillan.Vaughn Meader's Personal Life and Later CareerPersonal Life:Vaughn Meader was born in New York City on November 30, 1936. He served in the U.S. Air Force before pursuing a career in comedy. Meader was married twice and had children.Later Career:Following the peak of his fame in the early 1960s, Meader's career began to decline. The assassination of President Kennedy in 1963 marked a turning point, as the public's mood shifted, and the demand for comedic impressions of the president waned.Meader continued to perform throughout his life, but his popularity never returned to the heights it had reached in the 1960s. He passed away on October 22, 2004, at the age of 67.Despite his later struggles, Vaughn Meader's legacy as a pioneering comedian and a cultural icon remains firmly established. His work continues to be celebrated as a significant contribution to the history of American comedy.https://youtu.be/saN-CJ6PE_w

Rumination on the past and anxiety about the future are both forms of repetitive negative thinking that can significantly increase stress and contribute to mental health issues like depression and anxiety. While they are distinct processes, they often feed into each other, creating a cycle of distress.Rumination is the process of excessively dwelling on negative thoughts and feelings about past events. It's like replaying a distressing movie scene over and over in your mind, without ever reaching a resolution. This form of thinking focuses on "what went wrong," "what I should have said," or "why did that happen?" instead of productive problem-solving. It's often associated with feelings of guilt, shame, regret, and helplessness. For example, after an awkward social interaction, a person might ruminate on their every word and action, critiquing themselves long after the event has passed. This constant self-criticism intensifies negative emotions and can prevent individuals from moving forward.Anxiety about the future is characterized by excessive worry about what might happen. It's often referred to as "anticipatory anxiety," where you're constantly imagining and preparing for potential threats or negative outcomes. This type of thinking focuses on "what if" scenarios, such as "what if I fail my exam?" or "what if I lose my job?" This constant state of alert keeps the body in a prolonged "fight or flight" response, leading to physical symptoms like a racing heart, muscle tension, and difficulty sleeping. It is driven by an intolerance of uncertainty, the inability to accept that you can't control every possible outcome.Both rumination and future anxiety can become self-perpetuating cycles. Rumination on a past failure can increase your anxiety about facing a similar situation in the future, and anxiety about a future event can lead to rumination on the potential negative outcomes. To break this cycle, it's crucial to shift your focus from unproductive thinking to the present moment.Effective strategies include:Mindfulness: Practices like meditation and deep breathing help anchor you in the present, reducing the power of thoughts about the past or future.Cognitive Restructuring: Challenge your negative thought patterns by asking if there's evidence to support them. Replace "what if I fail?" with more balanced statements, such as "I'm prepared, and I'll do my best."Scheduled "Worry Time": Instead of letting worry consume your day, set aside a specific, short period (e.g., 15 minutes) to address your concerns. If a worrying thought arises outside this time, gently remind yourself to deal with it during your scheduled session.Actionable Plans: If a concern is within your control, create a step-by-step plan to address it. For example, if you're worried about an exam, create a study schedule. Taking action can reduce the sense of helplessness that often fuels rumination and anxiety.Physical Activity: Exercise is a powerful tool for interrupting negative thought loops and releasing built-up stress. A walk in nature, in particular, has been shown to reduce rumination and quiet the part of the brain associated with self-focused, negative thinking. let's initiate a plan-If a concern is within your control, create a step-by-step plan to address it. For example, if you're worried about an exam, create a study schedule. Taking action can reduce the sense of helplessness that often fuels rumination and anxiety. Greetings, Grandpa Bill!

Grandpa Bill is on a mind-bending journey as he connects the dots between ancient wisdom and modern-day mysteries. In this episode, we'll explore the spiritual concept of the Akashic Records—that cosmic library of all knowledge—and confront the unsettling theory of a "shadow government." Is this unseen power just a political idea, or could they be trying to access and manipulate the very fabric of reality? Tune in for a holistic perspective on a truly un-holistic topic. You'll never look at history or your intuition the same way again.Grandpa Bill Asks:What if our collective human history, our spiritual purpose, and our past lives are all recorded in an energetic database—and what would a "shadow government" do if they found a way to "hack" it?Are the spiritual truths we seek just waiting to be accessed, or is there a hidden force actively working to obscure the records of our souls?Grandpa Bill's Deep Dive: Exposing the "Shadow Government" & The Akashic Records Welcome to the Holiest of Holistic Hours, Grandpa Bill tackles the biggest questions of our time. Today, we're pulling back the curtain on the "deep state" and their alleged obsession with the Akashic Records. We'll unpack the conspiracy theory and look at what it truly means for our spiritual freedom. From the halls of power to the etheric planes, no stone is left unturned. This is not about fear, but about reclaiming your own knowledge and personal power.Grandpa Bill Queries?:Could our intuition and "gut feelings" be signals from the Akashic Records—and if so, what are "they" doing to silence that inner voice?If we can access all knowledge from the past, what does that mean for our future—and who gets to decide what's true?Grandpa Bill Asks:Ever feel like the truth is just out of reach?

The Holistic Healing of Jay "Kramden's"Life and The "Wanderer"Grandpa Bill Asks: Have you ever considered the quiet impact of those who keep our cities moving, like bus drivers? What unsung heroes in your daily life deserve a moment in the spotlight?But Jay's world extends beautifully beyond the bus window. He's a devoted son and father, finding his deepest joys in the simple, yet profound, moments shared with his family. Imagine a crisp Maine afternoon, walking along the iconic Western Prom – a place steeped in personal history for Jay and his family. Here, you'll often find Jay, his father, Grandpa Bill, and his brilliant daughter, Adah, sharing stories, laughter, and the quiet comfort of being together. These aren't just walks; they're rituals of connection, moments of holistic healing that ground them and strengthen their bonds.Adah, with her bright mind and keen observations, adds another layer of richness to these family outings. Her perspective, combined with Grandpa Bill's wisdom and Jay's steady presence, creates a beautiful dynamic that reminds us all of the power of intergenerational connections. It's in these shared experiences, these traditions, that we truly understand where we come from and who we are.Grandpa Bill Asks: What family traditions, big or small, bring you the most peace, joy, or a sense of belonging? How do these moments contribute to your overall well-being?Jay "Kramden" reminds us that heroism isn't always about grand gestures; sometimes, it's in the consistent, kind, and dedicated way we show up for our communities and our families. It's in the simple joys, the familiar routes, and the cherished walks that we find our truest selves and experience the deepest forms of holistic healing.Jay "Kramden": Portland's Heartbeat, Family Man, and Community Connector#JayKramden, #PortlandMaine ,#BusDriverLife, #CommunityHero, #EverydayHeroes, #MaineLife, #TheWestEnd, #WesternProm, #FamilyTime, #HolisticHealing, #PodcastLife, #YouTubeChannel, #BillHolt#BHSalesKennelKelpHolisticHealingHour, ,#InspiringStories, #CommunitySpotlight, #RealLifeHeroes, #UrbanStories, #MaineAdventures, #FamilyGoals, #GenerationalLove, #SimpleJoys, #LifeInPortland ,#ExploreMaine, #LocalLegends ,#Storytelling, #VlogLife ,#BloggersOfInstagram, #ConnectWithCommunity ,#MindfulLiving ,#Gratitude,

Grandpa Bill talks about Qi Gong-Hello and thank you for tuning into "Workouts for Geriatrics, AKA, Silver Streakers, Good for All Kids from 1-92!" I'm your host, Grandpa Bill, and today on the BH Sales Kennel Kelp Holistic Healing Hour Podcast, we're diving into a practice that's as ancient as it is effective for a long and healthy life: Qi Gong.Now, you might have heard of Tai Chi, but Qi Gong is its close cousin, and in many ways, its parent. The name itself is a clue: "Qi" (pronounced "chee") is the life force or energy that flows through our bodies, and "Gong" means cultivation or work. So, Qi Gong is the art of cultivating and working with our life energy.An Overview of Qi GongSo, what exactly does a Qi Gong session look like? Well, it's not about breaking a sweat or lifting heavy weights. It's about slow, mindful movements, coordinated with deep, diaphragmatic breathing. Think of it as a moving meditation.The core principles are:Gentle Movement: The movements are soft, fluid, and circular. We're not pushing our bodies to their limits; we're coaxing them into a state of balance.Mindfulness: The mind is focused on the body, on the breath, and on the feeling of Qi flowing. This helps to calm the nervous system and reduce stress.Deep Breathing: We breathe from the belly, not the chest. This helps to oxygenate the blood, calm the mind, and energize the body.Example: The Wall ExerciseNow, for a simple and effective Qi Gong exercise you can do right now, I'm going to teach you "The Wall Exercise." All you need is a wall.Find your spot: Stand with your back against a wall, about a foot away.Slide down: Slowly slide your back down the wall until your knees are bent at a 90-degree angle, as if you're sitting in an invisible chair. Make sure your back is flat against the wall.Breathe deeply: As you hold this position, breathe deeply and slowly. Feel the strength in your legs, but also the calm in your mind.Rise up: After a few breaths, slowly and gently push yourself back up the wall to a standing position.Repeat: Do this a few times, increasing the hold time as you feel more comfortable.This exercise is fantastic for building leg strength, improving balance, and calming the mind. It's safe, effective, and can be done by anyone, no matter their age or fitness level.Why Qi Gong is a perfect workout for "Silver Streakers"Joint-friendly: The slow, gentle movements are easy on the joints, making it a great alternative to high-impact exercises.Improves balance: Many Qi Gong exercises focus on balance, which is crucial for preventing falls as we age.Reduces stress: The combination of mindful movement and deep breathing is a powerful stress-reliever.Increases energy: By cultivating Qi, we can increase our vitality and energy levels, helping us to feel younger and more vibrant.So, whether you're 19 or 92, Qi Gong has something to offer. It's a journey into your own inner energy, a way to connect with your body and mind, and a path to a healthier, more balanced life.#QiGong,#GeriatricFitness,#GrandpaBill,#SilverStreakers,#WorkoutsForGeriatrics,#HolisticHealing,#BHSalesKennelKelpHolisticHealingHour,#MindfulMovement,#Longevity,#AncientWisdom,

Grandpa Bill talks about Brain Gain focus as a super power to drive memory-recap of a formal workshop "Brain Armor" with Dr. Anthony MetivierIn a world drowning in digital noise and endless distraction, our most valuable asset—our focus—is under constant siege. We've become masters of "idle scrolling," a mindless, passive activity that promises connection but delivers only a fragmented, exhausted mind. The very device we hold in our hands, meant to be a tool for productivity and knowledge, has become a thief of our cognitive power.But what if you could reclaim that power? What if you could forge your focus into a superpower, not just for a fleeting moment, but as a core capability that drives a sharper memory and a more resilient mind? This is the essence of the A.R.M. Method, a framework for building "Brain Armor" strategies and exercises that transform your relationship with your own attention.A is for Awareness + Acceptance. The journey begins not with a new app or a complicated technique, but with radical honesty. We must first become aware of our current habits. Acknowledge the moments you reach for your phone out of boredom, the hours lost to social media feeds, the difficulty you have in staying present in a conversation or a task. This awareness isn't about judgment; it's about observation. Following awareness comes acceptance. Accept that this is where you are right now. Accept that your brain has been trained for distraction. This acceptance is the fertile ground from which real change can grow. Without it, you're fighting a shadow.R is for Response. Once you are aware and accepting, you are empowered to choose a different response. Instead of automatically reaching for your phone during a lull, what if you chose to notice your breath? Instead of letting your mind wander during a meeting, what if you brought it back gently to the speaker's words? This is where the Brain Armor exercises come in. These aren't just one-off tricks; they are intentional, repeatable actions designed to build new neural pathways. This could be a 5-minute meditation, a focused breathing exercise, or a single-tasking session where you dedicate your entire attention to one thing. The goal is to consciously override the old, automated response of distraction with a new, intentional one of focus.M is for Management. The final piece of the A.R.M. method is management. This is the ongoing, strategic maintenance of your mental state. It's about creating a lifestyle that supports focus and memory, rather than sabotaging it. This includes setting clear boundaries with technology (e.g., "phone-free" hours), building routines that prioritize deep work, and integrating practices that "relax all aspects of the mind." This isn't about being idle; it's about active, restorative rest. It's the difference between zoning out and consciously unwinding. Think of a mind that is well-managed as a sharp, finely-honed tool, not a dull, cluttered drawer.The A.R.M. Method is an antidote to the modern condition. It's a conscious choice to move from being a passive consumer of information to an active architect of your own mind. By embracing Awareness and Acceptance, choosing a new Response, and proactively Managing your mental well-being, you don't just fight distraction—you build a brain that is sharper, more resilient, and truly alive. This is the ultimate superpower, and it's within your reach.#TheARMmethod,#BrainArmor#FocusSuperpower#DigitalWellness,#MindfulLiving,#AttentionManagement,#MemoryBoost,#BeyondIdleScrolling,#ReclaimYourFocus,#CognitiveFitness,

small group fixed income options-Informal Meeting assimilating --venture capital-reflection then & now-Grandpa Bill explores this special series, we dive into the practical and purposeful side of financial security. We'll show you how to start a community pool for investing in gold, silver, and other precious metals. Our mission? To use the proceeds to eventually establish local, alternative healing centers for seniors and those in need ALL KIDS FROM 1-92.Grandpa Bill Asks: What would it mean to you to invest in a legacy of wellness for your family and community?Today, I want to share a story that's been on my mind for a while now. Many of you are like me, living on a fixed income, trying to make sure our savings last. The world of investing can feel complicated and risky, especially when every dollar counts. That's why I want to talk about a concept that's not about playing the market, but about preserving what we have and using it for something good.The premise is simple: What if we, as a community, pooled our resources to invest in something tangible and timeless? Something like gold and silver. These aren't speculative assets; they're a way to hold value and protect our savings from inflation. By coming together, even with small, consistent contributions, we gain a stronger foothold.Now, here's the best part, and the core of the mission. The goal of this "community treasure chest" is to eventually fund local alternative medicine-oriented healing centers and services. Imagine having a place where therapeutic massage, acupuncture, and nutritional counseling are accessible to everyone, not just those who can afford it. That's a legacy worth building. It's an act of collective care and long-term vision.Investing together isn't just about financial gains; it's about building trust and purpose. It transforms a solo act of self-preservation into a shared mission of community well-being. It's about leaving behind not just money, but a legacy of healing and hope. And in my book, that's the greatest return on investment of all.#FixedIncomeInvesting, #CommunityInvesting, #PreciousMetals, #GoldAndSilver, #FinancialWisdom, #HolisticHealing, #AlternativeMedicine, #BHSalesKennelKelpHolisticHealingHour, #GrandpaBill, #PurposefulInvesting, #LegacyBuilding, #MaineLiving, #RetirementGoals, #WellnessForAll, #CommunityWealth,Creative Solutions for Holistic Healthcare

Grandpa Bill will be discussing all of this, when Byron Athene Reknown Psychoherapist & Physchoanalyst, joins me monthly. once again joins me, next on 9/25 Propositional Knowledge: "Knowing that..." (e.g., "I know that the sky is blue.")Procedural Knowledge: "Knowing how..." (e.g., "I know how to ride a bike.")Experiential Knowledge: Gained from personal experience (e.g., "I know what it feels like to be sad."Forms of KnowledgeKnowledge isn't a single, monolithic concept. It comes in different forms that shape how we interact with the world:Propositional Knowledge: This is "knowing that" something is the case. It's the most common form of knowledge discussed in philosophy. It's declarative and can be stated as a proposition, such as "I know that grass is green" or "I know that Paris is the capital of France." It relies on facts and information.Procedural Knowledge: This is "knowing how" to do something. It's the practical, skill-based knowledge we acquire through practice and experience. Examples include "knowing how to ride a bike," "knowing how to play a musical instrument," or "knowing how to cook." You may not be able to articulate every step, but you can demonstrate the skill.Experiential Knowledge: This is gained through direct personal experience and is often tied to emotions and sensations. It's the subjective "I know what it's like" kind of knowledge. For example, "I know what it feels like to be scared" or "I know the feeling of a cold winter's day." This type of knowledge is deeply personal and can be difficult to convey to someone who hasn't shared a similar experience.#Knowledge,#Wisdom,#Learning,#Understanding,#MentalHealth,#Psychology,#BHSalesKennelKelpHolisticHealingHour,#ByronAthene,#Podcast,#YouTube,#Psychotherapy,#Psychoanalysis

Grandpa Bill's Brain Fuel: The Top Supplements Dr. Amen Recommends for a Healthier MindGrandpa Bill here. For the past few days, we've been on a mission to improve our brain health. We've talked about a great workout for the mind, but today, we're going to dive into what to feed it. Dr. Daniel Amen, a man who has looked at more brain scans than almost anyone, teaches us that you can't have a healthy mind without the right fuel. So, let's talk about his top supplement suggestions—the brain-boosting heroes you might want to add to your daily routine.Remember, always talk to your doctor before starting any new supplement. They're your co-pilot on this journey.If you think of your brain as a house, Omega-3s (like DHA and EPA) are the high-quality lumber. They are a core component of your brain cell membranes. Dr. Amen considers them foundational for memory, mood, and overall brain structure.This trio of B vitamins works together to create energy in the brain. They also help clear away a substance that can be harmful to our blood vessels, keeping the pathways clear for good blood flow. Think of them as the team that keeps the lights on in your mind, ensuring your brain has the juice to function optimally.Choline is a key nutrient your body uses to create a messenger for memory called acetylcholine. Having enough choline is like having a reliable mail carrier—it helps ensure that your memory messages get delivered quickly and accurately.You might think these are just for your stomach, but your gut is often called your "second brain." The healthy bacteria in your gut send signals to your mind that can help manage stress and anxiety. A happy gut often means a happier brain!Dr. Amen points to mushrooms like Cordyceps and Reishi. These are known as "adaptogens," meaning they help your body and brain handle stress more effectively. They don't create a buzz; they train your brain to be more resilient, like a personal trainer building strength.These are powerful compounds that fight inflammation throughout your body, including your brain. Inflammation can harm brain cells over time, so Curcumin and Quercetin act like a cleanup crew, reducing swelling and protecting your mind from damage.This one is crucial for everyone! Vitamin D is vital for mood and overall brain health. Studies show that a lack of Vitamin D is common and can be tied to feelings of sadness. Getting enough of this "sunshine vitamin" can make a world of difference.Rounding out the list, Saffron is a great mood booster, while Ginkgo Biloba helps promote healthy blood flow to the brain.So, there you have it, folks. By giving your brain the right fuel, you're not just taking supplements; you're building a healthier, happier you from the inside out.Keep that body and mind moving!1. Omega-3s (The Brain's Building Blocks)2. B12, B6 & Folate (The Power Plant)3. Choline (The Memory Messenger)4. Probiotics (The Gut-Brain Connection)5. "Smart Mushrooms" (Resilience Trainers)6.

Grandpa Bill will be joined by my co host Tam Veilleux on 8/27/25 at 1 p.m. EDT at our Wellness Wisdom edition of my BH Sales Kennel kelp Holistic Healing Hour Podcast. She will expand on the prelude/overview topics GB outlines in this video. Energy Almanac 2025 & 2026!The month of August has been a period of significant planetary activity, urging us to find a balance between external action and internal reflection. This is a time of both excitement and potential challenge, setting the stage for major shifts as we head into the last part of the year.Planetary Conjunctions and Alignments: The first part of August saw a powerful series of conjunctions. On August 6th, the second of three conjunctions between Saturn and Neptune occurred. This cosmic pairing of structure (Saturn) and intuition (Neptune) has been creating a period of deep karmic reflection and testing our patience. It's a time when we may be asked to face the consequences of past actions and to be more measured and thoughtful in our approach. This is an excellent opportunity to discuss how this might be a theme in the 2026 Almanac, as the final conjunction is coming up in February 2026.Venus and Jupiter's Close Approach: On August 12th, the two brightest planets, Venus and Jupiter, had a spectacular conjunction. This is a beautiful and expansive energy, bringing themes of abundance, love, and growth to the forefront. This event may have brought feelings of optimism and hope, a stark contrast to the heavier Saturn-Neptune energy.The Perseid Meteor Shower: Also peaking on August 12th, the Perseid meteor shower added a layer of excitement and cosmic wonder to the sky. Meteor showers are often seen as times of powerful inspiration, new beginnings, and making wishes.The Full Moon and New Moon: We had a Full Moon on August 9th, a time of culmination, emotional release, and letting go of what no longer serves us. Following that, the New Moon on August 23rd (just a day after your show!) marks a moment for setting new intentions and planting the seeds for future growth.Mercury's Movement: While Mercury is not in retrograde at this time, its current position and relationship with other planets are still influencing communication and thought processes. It's a good time to emphasize clear and mindful communication, especially with the more intense planetary energies in play.Saturn Retrograde: Saturn has been in retrograde since July 13th, and as the month progressed, its influence has become more pronounced. This retrograde period in Pisces is a time to re-evaluate our long-term goals and the foundations we've built. It can bring challenges but also opportunities for immense personal growth and stability if we are willing to do the internal work.#EnergyAlmanac,#Tam Veilleux,#Janet Hickox,#GrandpaBillPodcast#HolisticHealingHour#AstrologyRecap,#Astrology2025,#2026Almanac,#SpiritualGrowth,#AstrologyPodcast,#WellnessJourney,#NewMoon,#SaturnRetrograde,
