Dealing With Stress to Alleviate Phantom Pain Ahhh, stress! It wouldn't be a day or a week without something triggering stress. A bid decision, a deadline, a fight with a friend, or even traffic! As amputees we also face the uphill battles of healing, socket fittings, sores and painful steps, and phantom pains. Sometimes it feels like we never get a break. It feels like the weight of the world is placed on our shoulders and we can't come up for air. What we all need to learn is that every time we feel stressed out we have, in our own power, the ability to change the outcome. We control the narrative and we control how we come out on the other side. "Mind over Matter" isn't just a cliche it is truth. When we hold in stressors we destroy our immune system, disrupt our nervous system, and create more problems than we need to. We need to find ways to release negativity and stressors in our life. They will always be there, so instead of letting them take control and reeking havoc on your health you need to find ways to work through them and find a peace in your life. When we learn to breathe, slow down, relax, and let go of the things we cannot control, then start feeding our mind with positive and affirming words we can begin to heal ourselves and give our bodies a chance to heal. This week I challenge you. Find time to slow down and breathe slowly and deeply through troubles and stressors you are feeling. Realize what you can control and what you cannot. If you can't control something it's time to let it go. Use animals to help you find quiet time and centering. Horses especially are extremely intuitive and can read you from a mile away. If you bring in negative energy or a lot of "baggage" they won't want to be close to you, and I don't know about you, but I go see my horses for the kisses and love they pour into me. If I come preoccupied and upset, holding onto something negative, they sense it and walk away from me. I must clear my mind and center/ground myself if I want meaningful interaction with them. Our closeness happens when I let my fears, anxiety, and stressors melt away and I focus on being present with my girl. Words of affirmation and positivity. Speak them and repeat them as often as you need to about yourself until you have created a positive mindset. If you consistently beat yourself up over little things or become negative about your healing then this is where you need the most work. Our brain is a very powerful tool that believes what we speak into it. Speak only good and positive and watch your circumstances change for the better! Finally, have grace upon grace for yourself. You won't be perfect and you will stumble as you go through life, we all do, the challenge is to pick yourself back up, dust yourself off, and try again. You've got this and I know you can do it. As you begin to make the changes needed to reduce stressors in your life you will start to notice phantom pains not being your focal point which then makes their grip on you much less. Don't give your pain power! Deny them and don't continue to talk about them. The less time you pay attention to the pains you feel the less likely you are to be consumed and debilitated by them. You deserve better! You can do this! Be positive, breathe and focus on the positives! Watch your stress melt away and your phantom pains calm down. Wishing you a week filled with health and happy thoughts. And as always, Be Healthy, Be Happy, Be YOU!! Much love,
The astrology this week has a gravity to it. Saturn moves into Aries to mark a new chapter of life around our experience of time, limits, and responsibilities, as well as our experience of devotion, determination, and confidence. Saturn reminds us to focus on what's important because our time and energy are some of our most precious and limited resources. In addition, there are many aspects this week that invoke a movement toward being open to new ways of thinking. This astrology this week includes:Saturn moves into Aries on Sat 5/24: This marks the ending and beginning of a new 3 year phase. Saturn relates to your devotion, diligence, and responsibilities. With Saturn leaving Pisces and entering Aries, we have opportunities to close out one phase and begin fresh with another. This means taking the gifts and wisdom you've gained over the last 3 years, and letting go of what once served you but no longer does.Last Qtr Moon in Aquarius on Tues 5/20 at 4:59am: Releasing stuck-ness, moving thru resistance, finding your path forward.Sun in Taurus sextile Saturn in Pisces: Finding support thru effort and willful determination.Mercury conjunct Uranus in Taurus: Awakening of new ideas, concepts, or information that may feel revelatory. Synchronistic changes in your perspective. There may be new information that comes to you (especially via dreams, daydreams, or other symbolic ways) that opens new pathways. Be open to explore.Mercury in Taurus opposite Juno + square Pallas: You may feel a tension between being true to your own ideas and values vs. what you “should” do, especially in being responsible to other people and what they expect of you in a particular role. This tension may be softened by first considering what you need in order to show up for this role or in order to be present for others.Sun moves into Gemini on Tues 5/20: Happy Birthday to my Gemini people! This marks our consciousness shifting to a more fluid and multifaceted way of experiencing the world (Gemini). This also may mean an increase in things like sharing ideas with others, more movement, and openness to frequent change.Sun in Gemini sextile Neptune + trine Pluto: Unconscious material (Neptune + Pluto) may move into consciousness (the Sun). These are soft aspects so you may simply notice subtle intuitions calling for your attention. These can be ignored, but if you notice them and pay attention, you may be called toward something that speaks to you deeply.Mercury moves into Gemini on Sunday 5/25: Thought process and communications become more fluid and open. You may be more open to transitions and new ideas. Mercury in Gemini also makes a sextile to Saturn which adds a layer of keeping a practical mindset.Venus in Aries trine Mars in Leo: Passionate, creative, and loving energy. This aspect inspires a sense of craving connection, being drawn toward others, and maybe also a playful sense of competition. You may feel inspired to take action spontaneously.Ceres conjunct Neptune in Aries: Ceres is a symbol of how we deal with separations and reunions. This aspect shows a time where there's a potential for healing around our experience of a separation, grief, or loss – especially in dynamics that involve the maternal line or maternal type figures.Reflection Questions:1. What is ending and how can you honor this process?2. How are you being called to think about something differently?3. What challenges have you endured from March 2023 to now? From thosesituations, what wisdom are you carrying forward?...Wishing you a week of ease, security, and safety

Today's daf is sponsored by Elana Storch in honor of Patti Evan’s birthday. " יומולדת שמח to my dear friend and chevruta partner! Wishing you many more years of good health, Mazal and bracha. Loads of love." Are all the elements mentioned in the Mishna that are needed for sanctifying additional space essential or is it sufficient for just one of them? This has ramifications for expansions in the second Temple period where not all these elements were present. This debate is dependent on whether or not the kedusha from the first Temple remained forever or did it need to be resanctified in the time of Ezra. From where is it derived that one who becomes impure while in the Temple will need to bring a sliding-scale sacrifice if one doesn't leave the temple immediately? What are the measurements for how long one needs to be in there to be obligated in the sacrifice? Would it be the same measurements for one who did it intentionally and will be punished by lashes?

Step into a lively, all-guys conversation with Steve Alessi, his son Chris Alessi, and son-in-law Christopher Muiña as they swap stories about fatherhood, raising sons, and the pure chaos (and joy) that comes from letting kids get dirty, daring, and hands-on with nature. You'll discover why getting your family outside—gardening, washing cars, building sandboxes, or just chasing birds—can reduce stress, boost development, and create stories that stick for generations.So if you're looking for inspiration (and a gentle nudge) to embrace adventure and outdoor memories with your children, this is your cue to get out, get messy, and make those priceless family moments happen.Support the showJoin our Podience Textline!

Today's daf is dedicated to the release of Idan Alexander after 584 days in captivity. Wishing him a refuah shleima and praying for the safe release of the rest of the hostages. According to Rabbi Yochanan, Rabbi Shimon and the rabbis disagree about whether or not animals left over from the previous year that were designated for the Tamid sacrifice can be redeemed without a blemish. The Gemara tries to find a source for Rabbi Yochanan's understanding that the rabbis disagree with Rabbi Shimon, but they are not successful. According to Rabbi Shimon, they cannot - so what does one do with them? If they were designated for communal burnt offerings, they would sacrifice them as voluntary communal offerings on the altar meant to keep the altar busy at all times. If they were designated for communal sin offerings, they could not be used directly as voluntary burnt offerings so they would wait until they were blemished, redeem them, and buy animals with the money to be sacrificed as voluntary burnt offerings. There is a concern that if this were to be permitted, one may think that one can change the destination even at an earlier stage (before the atonement for that sacrifice is achieved. The rabbis bring three tannaitic sources to support this. Another braita is brought to support the explanation that the extra animals designated for the Tamid sacrifice are used for voluntary burnt offerings. Can one purchase birds for the burnt offerings used to fill the altar? Shmuel also held like Rabbi Yochanan that according to Rabbi Shimon, the extra animals could be used as voluntary burnt offerings. What is the source for the fact that the goat offering brought inside on Yom Kippur atones also for intentional sins of impurity in the Temple?
Ever feel like you've done all the inner work... but something's still stuck in your body?In this drop of gold, Jeff Scult dives deep with Ronnie Landis—martial artist, somatic alchemist, and quantum body mechanic—for a conversation that gets under the skin and into the soul. Together, they unravel what it means to truly heal—not just in the mind, but in the fascia, the nervous system, and the breath.This is for anyone who's ever carried pain they couldn't explain...Who's felt trapped in loops they couldn't break...Who's ready to stop thinking their way through it and finally feel their way free.

Study Guide Shevuot 11 Today's daf is sponsored by the Pittsburgh daf yomi group for a refuah shleima for Rabbi Amy Bardack, haRav Ahuva bat Liba who is having surgery today. "Wishing our organizer and leader a speedy recovery." In support of Rabbi Yochanan's ruling that leftover animals designated for communal offerings can be redeemed at the end of the year, Raba brings an example of incense which has inherent sanctity and can be redeemed at the end of the year. Rav Chisda disagrees with Raba as he holds that incense does not have inherent sanctity until a later stage when it is brought into a sanctified vessel just before being offered on the altar. Raba proves his position that it has inherent sanctity. The Gemara then returns to Rav Chisda's original question of how can one redeem items with inherent sanctity. Raba answers that the court stipulates at the beginning of the year that any animals not needed will be only sanctified for their value. Abaye raises a difficulty from other communal offerings that cannot be redeemed if lost and replaced and then found. However, Raba answers that the stipulation is for typical, not atypical cases. Why, then, can the red heifer be redeemed in certain circumstances? The Gemara concludes that a stipulation is made because of its high value. Abaye raises a further difficulty from our Mishna, as Rabbi Shimon answers a question about whether animals designated for one sacrifice that are leftover can be used for another with a particular answer instead of answering that the court stipulated such, as Raba would have said. Raba answers that Rabbi Shimon doesn't agree with the rabbis that the court can stipulate. Rabbi Yochanan and Raba's approach is based only on the rabbis' position.

What happens when an astrologer's meditation on birth charts opens unexpected doorways to the spirit realm? Susan Reynolds never planned to communicate with the dead—in fact, she was once so terrified of ghosts that she would leave the room if anyone mentioned them. Yet over her 40-year journey as an astrologer, the veil between worlds kept thinning until she could no longer ignore the messages coming through.Susan's remarkable story begins with a routine pre-reading meditation that unexpectedly revealed a client's past life as an Irish farmer's wife with seven children. Though hesitant to share what seemed like a "boring" vision, Susan watched in amazement as this revelation transformed her client's life, lifting the burden of guilt the woman had carried about choosing career over family. This pivotal moment taught Susan to trust the information coming through, regardless of how it might be received.The spiritual downloads didn't stop with past lives. During readings, deceased loved ones began appearing with urgent messages for her clients. "I'm not a medium," Susan insists, explaining that unlike professional mediums, she can't summon spirits at will—they simply show up. One particularly moving encounter involved a father who had passed just weeks earlier, desperately wanting his daughter to know he loved her one last time.For years, Susan maintained a double life—corporate professional by day, intuitive astrologer by nights and weekends—until her spirit guides abruptly announced it was time for her to pursue her calling full-time. This dramatic career shift allowed her unique approach to astrology to fully bloom, combining traditional chart analysis with spiritual insights that address the soul's journey across lifetimes.Whether you're a skeptic, a spiritual seeker, or somewhere in between, Susan's experiences offer a fascinating glimpse into what happens when analytical practice meets intuitive gifts. Her story reminds us that our greatest strengths often emerge from embracing the very things that once frightened us most.Ready to explore your own cosmic blueprint?

This week's astrology shows the potential for healing messages to come through. You may also find yourself contemplating deeply on what really matters to you. This week's astrology includes:- Mercury in Aries conjunct Chiron: Healing words and thoughts, healing messages. These thoughts or messages may arise internally, via dreams, synchronicity, or from an external source . You may feel called to reflect on a situation where there's discomfort in an effort to bring help to what hurts. Also, receiving words of wisdom or connecting with a teacher or mentor. You may simply find the exact assistance you need (or offer that assistance to others). Also, unconscious thought patterns around self-sacrifice may arise.- Mercury in Aries aspect to the Pallas-Jupiter trine: Your reflections, thoughts, or communications may bring about a sense of expansion, growth, and victory. Your healing process has an impact on others.- Mercury moves into Taurus on Sat 5/10: Thoughts, communication, and analysis shifts to furthering your stability, and deepening into what's important for you right now. This shift also begins Mercury's square to Pluto in Aquarius, which will be exact next week.- Mercury square Pluto (exact next week): Symbolizes intense thoughts, communications, or ideas. This can feel like you're being drawn into a rabbit hole to explore something deep and meaningful to you. It can also be experienced as rumination at times. Allow your intense thoughts to arise, find an outlet for them, and let the energy flow thru you.- Venus in Aries sextile Pluto in Aquarius: Support and assistance in your healing journey, a sense of flow when you are real about what your experience is right now, and when you explore the feelings beneath the feelings.- Mars in Leo square Vesta in Scorpio: Taking action on the things that feel sacred to you, tending to the things that keep you alive, vital, and able to move thru the world every day, bringing your power and enthusiasm to a situation. Mars-Vesta brings together our passion and our ability to hold space for ourselves and others.Reflection Questions:1. What insight are you seeking this week?2. What messages are emerging thru you?3. What needs regular tending in your life, and how can you bring ritual (sacredness) to it?...Wishing you a week of ease, security, and safety

KINTO Join - a provider of sustainable mobility applications has revealed the findings of its survey which found that 45% of commuters in Ireland find their journey to work or university stressful. The research - conducted by Censuswide and involving 1,000 people who commute to work or university in the Republic of Ireland - found that more than half (51%) have considered changing their commute method. However, 48% have never tried a different mode of transport for their commute. Traffic delays and congestion were cited by 44% of commuters as one of their biggest frustrations. The other leading frustrations were fuel costs (30%), the time lost having to commute (30%), the weather (29%), and delays with services (15%). Driving by car is the most popular primary mode of transport (51%) among commuters. However, only 16% prefer to travel this way. If available, the bus was the most preferred means of commuting (25%), followed by the train (24%) and walking (23%). One in ten (10%) respondents said they would prefer a company or university shuttle. In urban areas, driving by car and getting the bus were tied for the top spot as the most popular primary mode of transport (at 32% respectively). In terms of generations, almost twice as many Generation X commuters drive by car (63%) than Generation Z commuters (32%). Of those who commute by car, 91% always or mostly do so alone. Their top reasons for travelling to work or university by car are that it is more time-efficient (48%), it is the only option (43%), and inadequate public transport accessibility (34%). The study found that the average daily commute time is around 1 hour and 10 minutes, whilst the average daily cost is €10. Train commuters have the most expensive journey to work or university (€13.14). At the other end of the scale, (excluding walkers) eBike commuters have the least expensive commute (€4.71). As for the average distance of a one-way commute, this is just shy of 17km, with those in Roscommon (30.56km), Wicklow (24.97km), and Westmeath (23.76km) travelling furthest. Meanwhile, respondents in Longford (6.13km), Waterford (9.58km), and Donegal (11km) have the shortest distances to travel. Patrizia Niehaus, CEO, KINTO Join Ltd, said: "It's ironic that while so many commuters in Ireland drive alone out of necessity, a significant number would actually prefer not to. They're frustrated - by traffic, rising fuel costs, and the stress of it all - but don't feel they have another choice. Of course, large-scale infrastructure upgrades are vital, but they take time. In the meantime, the congestion worsens, and emissions reduction targets slip further out of reach. That's why action at the micro-level is so critical. "A large share of short-distance travel happens for work and education. Employers and institutions are uniquely positioned to support more sustainable commuting through initiatives like shared transport schemes, carpooling platforms, or incentives for walking and cycling. When organisations take the lead, they not only support their own sustainability goals, but also drive behavioural change that benefits entire communities - cutting emissions, easing traffic, and giving people what they clearly want: the freedom not to drive alone."

Wishing you all a very Marvellous May! Mentioned in the podcast:Witch Country Ghost StoriesKitchen Witch audiobookxxx
Hello and welcome. Today is a beautiful day where I live. The sky is a mix of blue and white clouds. I've already been outside playing with my horse this morning. It's such a joy to see him roll around—he almost looks like he's laughing—and he loves the grass so much. Right now, the grass here is a vivid green, though it won't last much longer. In California, within another month or two, everything usually turns brown. We've had more rain than usual this year, so for now, welcome to my green world. Today's Focus: Expanding Wealth Today, we're going to expand our potential for wealth—more and more wealth. We'll look at where we already have abundance in our lives and invite even more of what we've been designing to show up in our current reality. This past week, I did some interesting past-life regression work and found some exceptionally uncomfortable lifetimes stored in my body. It's not my favorite feeling, especially after a good night's sleep, but it does call for awareness. If you're experiencing parts of your reality that don't yet match your desires, you're not alone. I've been on this planet for a few decades, and I've learned that sometimes our dreams and reality don't align perfectly—yet. For example, I've dreamed of living on a horse ranch, and now I do! My car is a close match for what I desire too, though I see an electric car in my future. Expansion often happens when we can love what we have while still inviting what we desire. Setting Up for Meditation Today, we're going to dive into a guided meditation. Please give yourself the next 10 minutes. This time is for you, to allow a real shift toward the life you've been seeking. This is the Energy Clearing for Life podcast. I'm excited to share that I now offer a 12-week intensive where I work directly with you, specifically for your transformation. We clear past relationships, narcissistic relationships, energy vampire relationships, and we invite in a new peacefulness, calming your nervous center. I can additionally help you expand your social presence—grow your followers and friends naturally, the way I do. If you'd like to explore working together, send me an email at happypublishing@gmail.com. Begin the Guided Meditation Sit up straight with your head balanced comfortably over your shoulders. (I'm feeling a lot of energy releasing already—some of it may be yours. I'm highly intuitive and often tap into the audience this way.) Take a deep breath. Place your feet firmly on the ground about a foot apart. Connecting with Earth Energy Imagine pulling Earth energy up through the balls of your feet. Pull that beautiful energy up through your knees. Now, bring red energy through the base of your spine—the root chakra. This chakra is tied to your sense of security. Allow this energy to deepen, helping you feel more grounded and connected. Opening the Second Chakra: Creativity and Money Next, roll orange energy through your second chakra (located near your sexual organs). This chakra relates to money, creativity, and sexual energy. Imagine a clockwise circle of orange light spinning here. Ask it to release anything outdated or heavy—especially old traumas stored from past lives. Allow silver energy to flow into this space, refreshing and healing it. Strengthening the Third Chakra: Self-Care and Confidence Move up to your third chakra, located at your solar plexus. This area glows a bright yellow and governs self-care and personal power. Send bright, healing yellow light through your solar plexus and allow any tension or stuck energy to clear. Opening the Heart Chakra: Healing and Compassion Now move up into your heart chakra. You might want to place your hand over your heart. The heart chakra vibrates with a green color. It connects you to the Divine and to compassion. Many of us carry wounds here from betrayal or loss. Without needing to relive the pain, simply ask for healing, strength, and balance in this beautiful heart space. Clearing the Throat Chakra: Speaking Your Truth Next, move into the throat chakra. This chakra shines a blue color. Roll beautiful, clear blue energy through your throat. This is your center for speaking your truth. Cultures across history often silenced people—children, women, even young princes. Release any leftover energy or belief systems that keep you from speaking freely. Breathe in fresh blue energy and allow your voice to strengthen. Awakening the Third Eye Chakra: Intuition and Knowing Now move up into the third eye chakra, which vibrates a violet color. This chakra holds telepathic capacities and clear knowing (claircognizance). In many past lives, people with these abilities were persecuted. Send love and healing to any part of you that has been wounded for being intuitive. Ask to be the best vessel for your Divine awareness, without fear or hesitation. Expanding Beyond: Morphogenetic Chakras Now, extend your awareness to the seventh through fifteenth chakras—the morphogenetic chakras. They surround you and connect you to higher consciousness and the Earth. Simply ask: "God, please clear all my morphogenetic chakras. Please help me release anything holding me back." Inviting Wealth into Every Area Now let's consciously invite wealth into every part of your life: Wealth in your body, hands, teeth, shoulders Wealth in your bank account Wealth in your savings account Wealth where you once leaked energy—now fully healed Surround yourself with the feeling of wealth. See if you can notice one area of your life where you are already wealthy. For me: I am wealthy with my beautiful horse. I am wealthy with my three beautiful children growing up. I am wealthy with where I live—trees, grass, acres of beauty. Focus on that fullness. Feel it. Breathe it in. Lowering Barriers and Opening to More Now, gently lower your energetic barriers. Allow more ways for money, opportunities, and systems of support to show up with ease. Give yourself permission to receive wealth without trying so hard. Breathe deeply into this expanded field of receiving. Closing and Invitation Thank you so much for joining me today. I'm so joyful that you're here. If you feel called to work with me, I currently have four openings for my 12-week immersion program. You can email me at happypublishing@gmail.com. Thank you for listening. Wishing you the most amazing day ahead! #meditation, #guidedmeditation, #energyclearing, #abundance, #manifestation, #wealthmindset, #spiritualawakening, #chakraclearing, #mindfulness, #healingjourney, #selfhealing, #highvibes, #raiseyourvibration, #selflove, #soulgrowth, #pastliferegression, #intuitivehealing, #grounding, #heartchakra, #throatchakra, #thirdchakra, #energyhealing, #lawofattraction, #mindsetshift, #innerpeace
The astrology this week is lighter and more liminal than the last several weeks. It invites a re-enchantment with life, especially in matters of your heart. This week's astrology includes:- Venus moves into Aries on Wed 4/30: An energizing initiation of fresh energy around relationships, love, beauty, healing pursuits, art, creativity. You may feel a readiness to move forward now, especially on relational themes that were on your heart in February and March (since Venus was already in Aries in Feb 5 – March 27 as a part of its retrograde process).- Venus conjunct Neptune in Aries: Both Saturn and Neptune have been an integral part of this Venus Retrograde this March – April. The conjunction becoming exact this week symbolizes a further re-enchantment of your capacity for love, union, and enjoyment. There's potential for full immersion into relational or creative things . . . as well as possibilities for enmeshment, blurring of boundaries, or illusions to arise. Neptune often helps us see our idealizations first by experiencing them unconsciously (i.e. being “in it” first). Over time we get to see people and situations as they are (rather than how we want them to be). There's beauty in the ideal as well as the reality when we hold it softly.- First Quarter Moon in Leo on Sun 5/4 at 6:52am PT: This point in the lunar cycle marks a crossroads for decisions. You may feel drawn to focus or reorient your energy toward what is most pressing right now. This First Quarter Moon in Leo emphasizes your relationship to giving and receiving affection, attention, and your magnetic pull on others. It provides opportunities to embody your inner spark. This First Quarter Moon also punctuates the dissipating Sun-Mars-Pluto t-square, so there may be additional insights or clarity around your autonomy, power, and control.- Pluto Stations Retrograde: This is a subtle component of the astrology this week. Pluto (along with the other outer planets) is retrograde about half the year. It's retrograde means that over the summer and fall, Pluto will slowly and slightly shift back a few degrees in the zodiac to about 0 degrees Aquarius. This symbolizes a concentration of Pluto in this place, meaning that any transits to Pluto will be more concrete, slow, steady, and take time to integrate.- Sun-Uranus in Taurus opposite Vesta-Juno in Scorpio: Bringing light, liberation, and awakening to the things that you are devoted to.Reflection Questions: 1. What is your heart telling you now? 2. How do you tend to idealize people or situations? 3. How can you embody both strength and flexibility?Wishing you a week of ease, security, and safety

University of Michigan Mira Mutnik, Jake Kanetis, and Marty Kilbane Amazing conversation with not 1, not 2, but 3 PhD students at the University of Michigan this week! A true, authentic conversation about the innovation and design of future prosthesis and the growth and research of creating a surgical procedures to aid in using these newly designed prosthesis all with the purpose of replicating the natural human movement. We packed so much conversation into this episode with so much more we could have talked about. Once again, we discussed what we could, but some details must be left out due to the highly competitive field these young adults are working in. What I love about these three students is that even though they are all in a different sector, so to speak, of research: Mira-above limb amputees, Jake-below limb amputees, and Marty-prosthetics, they are all working towards the same goal; creating the best way to unify the surgical procedure and prosthesis to give the amputee the best, most natural movement possible. Jake all hooked up to monitor human movement to collect data for his research Marty working with a study participant on their design of a prosthesis they are working on in the lab. Mira collecting data on her upper limb project and how to get the best hand movement and dexterity of a prosthesis. We had a great discussion of what it could look like for the future of amputees and the length of time these studies take. There are a lot of hoops to jump through, safety regulations, data collecting, and trials. The FDA must approve procedures and products that they hope to take to market some day, but these students have become three of the many students going through the program at University of Michigan, working tirelessly to bring this technology closer to us being able to access it. I find it so unique to see the shift from making the newest, coolest, most advanced products for us to wear, as amputees, to surgical procedures to make our bodies work in harmony with a prosthesis. The one thing we did dive deep into was the procedure of getting candidates who fit the bill to doing the trial procedures, and finding willing participants as well. This can be so tricky as we struggle with the idea of going back in and revision the original amputation in hopes that the outcome will be the same if not better, but the concern that it could be worse. I hope you will join us today, listen to the entire podcast and see what dedication these students have for helping our amputee community, what motivates them to continue into this higher level of study, and what their plans are for their future after graduation. Thank you Jake, Mira, and Marty for sharing your passion. Your dedication to helping our community find a better way to live is inspiring and deserves our gratitude! Continue doing what you're doing, and know we all thank you for the time, ideas, and ingenuity to take amputees to the next level!

This week's astrology deepens some themes we've been experiencing over the last week and month. The astrology symbolizes a process where we continue to encounter shadow (unconscious parts) of ourselves. This is a process of allowing more of yourself to come forward. This process is a rebirth - possibility involving labor pains, relief, existential contemplation, and release into the unknown of a new beginning . This week's astrology includes:- Sun-Mars-Pluto t-square: Further clarifying and amplifying patterns of power, autonomy to act, control, deep healing that can unfold via conscious awareness of these issues- Sun in Taurus square Pluto in Aquarius: Restructuring ego, identity, and relationship to what masculinity means to you, composting what may be false identity- Mars in Leo opposite Pluto in Aquarius: Empowering your righteous rage, exposing new parts of self that are connected to your enthusiasm for life, and your boundaries- New Moon in Taurus on Sunday, April 27 at 12:31pm PT: Planting new seeds in your psyche around what you need/want to live, grow, exist with security and stability . . . something new is pushing thru the soil- Venus conjunct Saturn & North Node in Pisces: Considering relational agreements, boundaries, and non-negotiable qualities in relationship. Also contemplating your values and how you connect with beauty, love, and pleasure in your life. North Node brings an open portal of possibilities.- Venus-Saturn in Pisces trine Juno in Scorpio: Opportunities for assistance and protection when you assume an internal experience of your worthiness.- Pallas Athena in Aquarius trine Jupiter in Gemini: Opportunities for strategic thinking that leads to hope, optimism, or more options.Wishing you a week of ease, security, and safety

Today's daf is sponsored by Samuel Berlad in honor of Esther Sarah bat Sarah to get good passing grades in the exams and parnassah tova. Also in loving memory of Devorah bat Avraham, for the refuah shleima of Shmuel Lev ben Bracha. Today's daf is sponsored by Audrey and Jake Levant in honor of Deborah and Michael Dickson. "Wishing you a huge mazel tov on the engagement of Dalia to Yared Posnasky." Rav Yehuda said in the name of Rav that a conspiring witness pays according to his share. After four unsuccessful attempts to explain the meaning of his statement, they explain it to be a case where the witness said he was convicted and charged money in a court for being a conspiring witness. Based on his testimony, he can be obligated to pay his share, even though his testimony cannot incriminate the other witness. If conspiring witnesses testify that a man divorced his wife and did not pay her the ketuba money, how is the payment for their punishment assessed, as they tried to obligate him to pay money that he may have had to pay later if he predeceases his wife or divorces her? If conspiring witnesses testify that a debtor who had a ten-year loan had a thirty-day loan, how is the payment for their punishment assessed? Both these cases are explained in the Mishna. Rav Yehuda says in the name of Rav that a ten-year loan is canceled when the shmita year arrives. Rav Kahana raises a difficulty on his statement from the Mishna as it implies that a ten-year loan can be collected. Rava resolves the contradiction. According to an alternative version of the sugya, Rav Yehuda said in the name of Rav the opposite - that a ten-year loan is collected. Rav Kahana supported his statement from our Mishna.Rava rejects the support from the Mishna. Rav Yehuda says in the name of Shmuel that if one loans another upon the condition that the shmita year not cancel the loan, the loan is canceled anyway as the condition is invalid. However, this contradicts a different statement of Shmuel regarding ona'ah, that a condition that goes against the Torah is valid if the issue relates to money. How is this resolved? Two other statements are brought by Rav Yehuda says in the name of Rav and Rav Kahana raises a difficulty against them - one about laws of Shabbat and one about laws of mikveh.
