How familiar are you with Torah? It's an important question because a lot of people simply remember the grand journey Moses takes and how he leads the people to Israel, and boom! You have the Torah. But it's so much more. In fact, outside of the 5 books of Moses you have The Talmud and Kabbalah and you have Pirkei Avot and you have this thing called Oral Torah versus Written Torah. Somewhere within the wide scope of what's considered Torah, you'll come across this book and wonder what's so special about this guy named Zohar. The mysteries and wisdom of The Zohar is well known and studied by Rabbi Natan Halevy. His precise and detailed work has been a lifetime achievement passed down from generation to generation within his family. Rabbi Halevy teaches Chaz Volk, host of Bad Jew, the depths, teachings, and relevance of this essential piece in Jewish literature. 00:00 Introduction 07:13 Oral Torah 10:04 Essential teachings 14:53 The power in reading 19:04 Zohar predicts cell phone addiction 22:30 Connection to Israel, Torah, and God deeply 24:39 Balancing study with life's responsibilities is challenging. 28:08 Alleviating depression, spreading holiness. 32:42 God's existence is fundamental 33:41 Practicing mystical teachings today About Rabbi Natan Halevy: I grew up in Los Angeles, and with my parents and siblings, attended Kahal Joseph where I had my Bar Mitzvah in 1994. As the child of Iraqi parents, I have a powerful sense of the strong culture and traditon I come from. In 2005 I received my Rabbinical ordination from Rabbi Yitchak Yaroslavsky at Yeshivat Tomchei Tmimim in Israel. I then served as an assistant Rabbi in Chabad of Great Neck, NY before I returned to Los Angeles in 2008. I love studying all facets of Torah—from the Bible to the Talmud to the inner parts of Torah. I also have knowledge of many other modalities and philosophies that I feel may support us as Jews and people in this modern day and age. My wife Bracha and our children – Yosef Hayim, Menucha, Menachem, Noam, and Shimon – are very happy to be working with the wonderful Kahal Joseph community.

Headaches Due to Pressure on Brain StemImagine you're constantly nagged by headaches that seem to originate from deep within your head, persistently disrupting your days. You might not know that these could be linked to pressure on your brain stem, a critical area that helps manage your body's most basic functions. Chiropractic care offers a unique approach to alleviating these symptoms by targeting the root cause—pressure that shouldn't be there. As you explore how spinal adjustments can reduce this strain, you'll discover not just relief, but a path to better overall health. But how exactly does this work, and what can you expect from such treatments? Let's uncover the possibilities together.Key TakeawaysBrainstem tension can disrupt neurological function, leading to headaches.Chiropractic adjustments target misalignments that cause pressure on the brain stem.Alleviating this pressure can reduce the frequency and intensity of headaches.Techniques like brainstem manipulation and medulla massage specifically relieve this stress.Restoring alignment in the neck and spine promotes long-term headache relief.Core Health Darien-Dr.Brian Mc Kay551 Post RoadDarien CT 06820203-656-363641.0833695 -73.46652073GMP+87 Darien, Connecticuthttps://youtu.be/WpA__dDF0O041.0834196 -73.46423349999999https://darienchiropractor.comhttps://darienchiropractor.com/darien/darien-ct-understanding-pain/Find us on Social Mediahttps://chiropractor-darien-dr-brian-mckay.business.sitehttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNHc0Hn85Iiet56oGUpX8rwhttps://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1nJ9wlvg2Tne8257paDkkIBEyIz-oZZYy/edit#gid=517721981https://goo.gl/maps/js6hGWvcwHKBGCZ88https://www.youtube.com/my_videos?o=Uhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/darienchiropractorhttps://www.facebook.com/ChiropractorBrianMckayhttps://sites.google.com/view/corehealthdarien/https://sites.google.com/view/corehealthdarien/homeQuiropractico para Dolor551 Post Road Suite 2b, Darien, CT 06820203-424-2244https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_BjQ58fpcl4This podcast welcomes your feedback here are several ways to reach out to me.

Today's meditation is all about cultivating calm and mindfulness while driving. We've all experienced road rage, whether it's getting cut off in traffic or dealing with a slow driver in the fast lane. But our reactions can have consequences beyond the moment. They can affect our loved ones when we get home. Your foul mood will make them avoid you and if it becomes habitual, nobody might want to spend time with you. The strangers you encounter on the road will also be affected by your bad mood and could lead you to bigger problems like a severe accident. So let's take a deep breath and focus on bringing calm to our driving experiences.#mindfuldriving #roadrage #calmness #drivingmeditation #affirmations #controlyourreactions #safedriving #mindfulmovement #dailypracticeSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/find-your-daily-calm/exclusive-contentAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
Recalling her experiences visiting a California state prison alongside regular guest Venerable De Hong, Margaret Meloni uncovers the raw and profound manifestations of suffering within the correctional environment. Through the stories shared by incarcerated individuals, she highlights the common threads of abuse, abandonment, and addiction that contribute to their circumstances—a powerful reminder of the multifaceted nature of suffering. We are reminded: The purpose of the podcast is to emphasize how understanding individual and collective suffering can guide us through our own struggles and promote healing. There is a complex interplay between personal responsibility and societal factors, illustrating how many prisoners grapple with their past while seeking to create positive change. Mindfulness meditation practices, integrated with Buddhist teachings, serve as a transformative tool. How foundational Buddhist concepts, such as the Four Noble Truths, help us to recognize our capacity for compassion and healing.

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: Join us at EAGxIndia 2024 in Bengaluru, on 19-20 October, 2024!, published by Arthur Malone on August 2, 2024 on The Effective Altruism Forum. Apply Here! EAGxIndia 2024 will be held at The Conrad, Bengaluru, Karnataka, India. The conference aims to help attendees in the region find and accelerate their path to positive impact, using EA principles to foster connections and growth opportunities. In 2023, 163 attendees participated in the first EAGxIndia, with 70% from India and others from the UK, US, Singapore, Indonesia, the Netherlands, Germany, and Brazil. This event enriched the local community with domestic and international connections, catalyzed movement growth, and had multiple reports of attendees transitioning into new impactful careers as a direct result of the conference. We are excited to build on these successes with a second, larger conference in just a few months! Basics of EAGx and effective altruism: EAGx (Effective Altruism Global X) is a series of regionally focused events uniting the global EA community, supported by the Centre for Effective Altruism (CEA) and organized by local teams. The EA community focuses on various cause areas, emphasizing effectiveness and evidence-based decision-making. Key areas include: Global health and development: Alleviating poverty and improving health in low-income countries through interventions such as malaria prevention, deworming, and direct cash transfers. Animal welfare: Reducing animal suffering in factory farming by promoting plant-based diets, animal rights, and humane treatment. Long-term future and existential risks: Mitigating risks to humanity's future, such as those posed by advanced AI, biosecurity, and nuclear weapons. Effective altruism community building: Strengthening the EA movement by fostering community, supporting EA-aligned careers, and enhancing impact. Policy and advocacy: Promoting global well-being through public policy and governance, focusing on open government data, evidence based policy, and capacity-building for officials. Why attend? EAGx events have a strong track record of fostering new connections within the effective altruism community. Past attendees have gained valuable information and networks, leading to jobs, internships, and development programs.

Learn and upskill: Participate in workshops, talks, and interviews with EA thought leaders and practitioners working on groundbreaking ideas. Get actionable insights and strategies: Receive practical advice on optimizing charitable donations, exploring impactful careers, and learning the latest EA research. Why India & Bengaluru?

The country also hosts a large population of educated and passionate individuals looking for their way to improve their own country, the world, and the future. This combination of problems to solve and a deep talent pool to empower makes India an ideal location for investment in the local EA community. Bengaluru, known as the Silicon Valley of India, is a hub of entrepreneurship and innovation. It boasts a rich academic and research landscape, ideal for impactful discussions and initiatives.

Navigating Faith in a Politically Charged WorldRomans 13:1-14Paul reminds us: “Though he was in the form of God, he did not consider being equal with God something to exploit. But he emptied himself by taking the form of a slave and by becoming like human beings. When he found himself in the form of a human, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross.” (Philippians 2:6–8) Jesus did not seek out the power of God or the political power of Israel, although He was from the Davidic line and had a rightful place to take the crown. He did not use that throne or the throne of God to impose His political will. He did it by impacting the people and fulfilling the role of the suffering servant.I don't plan on running for city council, senator, governor, or president, but I am called to speak about the political issues of today. But we need to know the heart of Jesus to provide a view from Jesus. There is no one answer to how we engage in today's political landscape. In our two-party system in the United States, we will find ourselves aligned one way, and on other topics, we will be aligned another. There will be no perfect answer for how our congregants should vote this fall. Alleviating poverty and releasing prisoners don't just happen on a Tuesday in November. We have a persistent call to prophetic action from the Suffering Servant, and those who follow and try to live like the Servant. I look forward to seeing you at Misty Creek this Sunday!Grace and Peace,Stephen

In this conversation, Eli Weinstein interviews Vincent Infante, a therapist and life coach who shares his unique approach to helping clients optimize their lives and feel empowered. They discuss the importance of giving grace to others and the limitations of therapy and coaching. They also explore the daily grind that can lead to burnout and ways to alleviate it. The therapist emphasizes the positive intent behind negative emotions and the need to be curious about them. They also discuss the power of mindset shifts, breaking out of diagnoses, and rephrasing language to separate oneself from emotions and experiences. In this conversation, Eli Weinstein and Vin discuss the importance of separating psychological disorders from personal responsibility. They mention Dr. Amen and his work on brain scans to understand mental health. They also talk about the prevalence of making excuses in today's society and the need to take ownership of one's actions and emotions. Vin shares his personal journey of breaking free from victimhood and the importance of honesty and self-awareness. They discuss the five aspects of mastery: thoughts, emotions, behaviors, actions, and language, and how they can be controlled to create a more intentional and empowered life. Takeaways Give grace to others and be flexible when scheduling and rescheduling appointments. Therapy and coaching have their limitations, and a hybrid approach that combines aspects of both can be more effective. Negative emotions have positive intent and can be indicators of deeper challenges or problems. The daily grind can lead to burnout, and it's important to find ways to alleviate it. Rephrasing language and separating oneself from diagnoses can help create possibilities for change and overcome negative experiences.

"Great businesses are built through facilitating a connection, often reassembling existing things in a new context."

What Does Extreme Heat Do?Since the pre-industrialized era, the global temperature has increased by about one degree Celsius. Although one degree may not seem significant, the consequences are increases in the intensity of heatwaves and drier conditions. In addition, in dense urban settings buildings trap and absorb this heat and cause even a higher area of heat relative to surrounding areas. The heat island effect is also exacerbated by the lack of greenery. With current fossil fuel emissions, increased heating of 1.5 degrees Celsius or more is predicted to happen globally within this decade. Among the most promising solutions to combat extreme heat in cities is the effort to promote natural systems – trees, creeks, and parks in cities and creating resilience hubs where people can stay cool and safe from dangerous temperatures. Because heat impacts individuals in multiple ways, the response to extreme heat must also be multifaceted. Responses to Extreme HeatThere are many possible responses to extreme heat. On an individual level, for example, when human body temperature rises to the point of heat stroke, individuals are subject to serious illness or in some cases, death. Heat poses a particular threat when the body is physically unable to cool down. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), between 2000 and 2016, 125 million more people were exposed to heat waves than in the period before 2000. Actions individuals can take to reduce heat exposure include avoiding going outside at peak temperatures, reducing the heat inside of homes, and if reducing heat at home is not an option, going where air conditioning is available. For some vulnerable populations like farmworkers, staying inside where there is air conditioning is not an option. In some states, like California, a temperature of 80 degrees Fahrenheit initiates the California's Heat Illness Prevention Standard, which is enforced by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). The Standard requires that training, water, shade, and rest be provided to outdoor workers. Currently, there is no federal protection or policy for workers who may experience extreme heat. While a proposed rulemaking is in the works, it may take years before a final regulation is completed.How to Establish Resilience and Safe HubsIn the meantime, there are key actions that anyone can take, including something as simple as making extreme heat a topic of discussion as part of increasing awareness. By spreading awareness and recognizing the consequences of extreme heat, politicians and policymakers will be much more likely to pay attention to the issue and to community necessities. Global and local temperatures are continuing to rise, and, as a result, it is important to have community access to locations with air conditioning systems, heat pumps, and safety hubs particularly in communities whose residents do not have home air conditioners. Hubs may include libraries, churches, schools, and nonprofits which can be essential for providing both a cool place to shelter and a source of information and assistance.Shifting to more green spaces is also an important solution to mitigate the impacts of increased heat. In New York, the Highline is a great example of transforming an old historic freight rail line into a park filled with rich greenery. The incorporation of nature into a previously urban dense space provides the city with more trees and access to green space. Addressing extreme heat in cities requires new approaches and creative thinking for a suite of implementation strategies to provide cooling to the public and creation of green space. Who is Our GuestJeff Goodell is the author of the New York Times bestseller The Heat Will Kill You First: Life and Death on a Scorched Planet, which focuses on responses to extreme heat. Goodell is also a journalist who has been covering climate change for more than two decades at Rolling Stone, The New York Times Magazine, and many other publications. He has a BA from the University of California, Berkeley, and an MFA from Columbia University in New York.

Let's get nitty 'n gritty, shall we? What - exactly - does it look and sound like to "practice self-compassion"? To answer that, we first have to clarify what self-compassion even is: And you may be pleasantly surprised to hear the answer!

And you can make something beautiful of it, make something better, alleviate suffering, and bring something of benefit. That's the game. Well why should I do that? Because it brings happiness.

Then, after that, we can start dealing with saving all sentient beings.” – Duncan TrussellAbout Krishna Das:Layering traditional Hindu kirtan with instantly accessible melodies and modern instrumentation, Grammy nominee, Krishna Das has been called yoga's “rock star.” With a remarkably soulful voice that touches the deepest chord in even the most casual listener, Krishna Das – known to friends, family, and fans as simply KD – has taken the call-and-response chanting out of yoga centers and into concert halls, becoming a worldwide icon and the best-selling chant artist of all time. His album ‘Live Ananda' (released January 2012) was nominated for a Grammy in the Best New Age album category.KD spent the late '60s traveling across the country as a student of Ram Dass, and in August 1970, he finally made the journey to India, which led him to Ram Dass' own beloved guru, Neem Karoli Baba, known to most as Maharaj-ji.Krishna Das now travels the world sharing his kirtan practice and wonderful stories of his life, of Maharaji-ji, of his life on the Path and discusses bringing chanting into our lives through retreats and workshops. To date, KD has released 15 well-received albums, most recently Trust in the Heart released in October 2017.
