Wabi Sabi - The Perfectly Imperfect Podcast with Candice Kumai
After a 8 days offline, I was reminded that the deepest healing doesn't come from doing more—but from being more present. In this episode, I share why immersing yourself in nature for just 3 to 4 days can reset your nervous system, clear your mind, and bring you back to yourself. This isn't about escape—it's about return. To the quiet. To stillness. To the real you. I'll walk you through how to take a restorative break in nature, what to expect emotionally and physically, and why this kind of reset is essential in today's overstimulated world. Let this be your reminder: nature always welcomes you back—with mercy, with grace, and without judgment. Benefits of Immersing in Nature for 3–4 Days 1. Nervous System Reset – Reduces cortisol (stress hormone) – Activates the parasympathetic (rest and digest) system – Lowers heart rate and blood pressure 2. Mental Clarity & Focus – Boosts cognitive function and memory – Reduces mental fatigue and brain fog – Encourages clearer, calmer decision-making 3. Emotional Detox & Healing – Allows space to process emotions without distraction – Supports mood stability and lowers anxiety – May bring suppressed feelings to the surface (a healthy release) 4. Enhanced Creativity – Being in natural environments stimulates creative thinking – Encourages new ideas, inspiration, and problem-solving – Helps reconnect to your inner artist or writer 5. Better Sleep – Resets circadian rhythm – Natural light exposure improves melatonin regulation – Physical movement + no screens = deeper rest 6. Physical Vitality – Encourages gentle, natural movement (walking, hiking) – Clean air and natural light nourish your cells – Anti-inflammatory effects from phytoncides (plant compounds released by trees) 7. Spiritual Reconnection – Deepens your sense of purpose and gratitude – Quiet moments in nature often lead to insights or breakthroughs – Helps you remember you are part of something larger 8. Digital Detox – Clears digital overload and constant stimulation – Rebuilds attention span and presence – Creates time for journaling, reflection, or silence 9. Self-Compassion & Presence – Nature does not judge—she invites you to just be – Encourages a softer internal dialogue – Teaches patience, humility, and trust

What if everything you've been asking for is already lined up—and the only thing missing is your next step? In this episode of Our Reimagined Life, we explore the Universal Law: The Law of Action—the law that turns dreams into reality.

I'd love to hear from you - Send me a text message The Dragon and the Egg
Did you know that more people are making eight figures today than at any point in human history? In fact, in the last year alone, over 100,000 new millionaires were created worldwide. The pathways to massive wealth have multiplied exponentially. Whether through business scaling, digital enterprises, investments, or completely unexpected opportunities - eight-figure wealth is being generated at an unprecedented rate. Right now, in this vast multiverse of infinite timelines, there exists a version of you who has already achieved what you're seeking. This version of you lives in a reality where making eight figures isn't just possible – it's already happening. They wake up every morning to notifications of massive deposits, oversee multiple thriving ventures, and navigate their wealth with ease and confidence. Wealth is simply energy in motion. Just like the air you breathe, just like the thoughts you think, money is merely another form of energy flowing through our universe. Some people restrict this flow, creating dams and barriers... while others... (slight pause) others have discovered how to open themselves to receive this abundance naturally and effortlessly. We're going to tap directly into the timeline where you've already achieved this level of success. Because right now, in the quantum field, there exists a version of you who's already generating eight figures. They're not hoping, wishing, or dreaming - they're DOING it. They're receiving notifications of million-dollar deposits, closing eight-figure deals, and watching their wealth multiply effortlessly.

In this podcast episode, MRS Bulletin's Sophia Chen interviews Gwangmin Bae of Korea University about his work with colleagues on the design of a new smart window system that utilizes compression. Like other smart windows, this window makes use of pores within the material to adjust its transparency. However, instead of using a stretchy material that controls light scattering through the pores, Bae and colleagues used a material that compresses in thickness. That is, the window becomes more transparent when it is compressed. The researchers place this structured porous material made of the polymer polydimethylsiloxane or PDMS between two panes of glass to create the smart window. This work was published in a recent issue of Nature Communications.

In this episode of the Nonprofit News Feed by Whole Whale, hosts George Weiner and Nick Azulay delve into critical topics affecting the nonprofit sector, focusing on the response to the LA wildfires, the politicization of fundraising platforms, and innovative governance in nonprofit organizations. LA Wildfires and Nonprofit Mobilization The episode opens with a detailed discussion on the LA wildfires, where thousands of firefighters are battling blazes across 45 square miles, affecting 88,000 residents under evacuation orders. Local nonprofits like K Town for All and Covenant House have stepped up, creating supply chains and providing shelter for those displaced. Airbnb.org also announced emergency housing for over 25,000 people, highlighting the critical role of nonprofit and corporate collaboration in crisis response. George emphasizes the importance of nonprofits having a pre-established networked response plan for such disasters. He urges organizations to prepare coordinated fundraising strategies to capitalize on moments of compassion, ensuring sustained support for long-term recovery efforts. Politicization of Fundraising Platforms The conversation shifts to the controversy surrounding the use of ActBlue in fundraising for wildfire relief, highlighting how political narratives can complicate nonprofit efforts. Critics accused fundraiser organizers of profiting off the fires due to ActBlue's association with progressive causes. George and Nick stress the importance of nonprofits being aware of the political implications of their chosen platforms and maintaining transparency to avoid misinterpretation and backlash. Innovative Governance: The Ocean as a Board Member In a unique twist on nonprofit governance, the Scottish Association for Marine Science has named the ocean as a trustee on its board. This move aligns with legal innovations granting personhood to natural entities, aiming to incorporate environmental interests directly into decision-making. George envisions the potential of AI representing non-human stakeholders, offering a futuristic approach to stakeholder inclusion in governance. Mastodon's Nonprofit Restructuring The episode also covers Mastodon's restructuring to form a new nonprofit organization in Europe, differentiating itself from CEO-controlled networks. This shift towards decentralized control aims to enhance transparency and align with public benefit objectives, setting a precedent for social media platforms. Feel-Good Story: Greening Urban Spaces Concluding on a positive note, the hosts highlight the efforts of Denver-based nonprofit The Park People, which provides affordable trees to low-canopy areas, addressing environmental and socio-economic disparities. This initiative underscores the multifaceted benefits of urban greening, from reducing heat to improving community well-being. Final Thoughts The episode underscores the dynamic challenges and innovations within the nonprofit sector, from crisis response and fundraising complexities to pioneering governance models that prioritize environmental stewardship. Nonprofit leaders are encouraged to prepare for crises, consider the broader implications of their operational choices, and embrace innovative governance practices.
