My Ayahuasca Experience – Part Two: Night One With Grandmother There's a moment before every first ceremony when fear tightens, identity resists, and truth begins to breathe. Night One starts long before the cup touches your lips, on the plane, in the tension between who you've been and who you're afraid to become. By the time the sun drops behind the Andes and your name is called in the maloca, you realize there is no turning back. In this episode, I take you into that moment… the doorway between the known and the unraveling. Grandmother met me instantly, no warm welcome, no gentle reunion. My confidence was my mistake, and she humbled me with a cosmic slap that dragged me into the gravity of the real work. What followed was a war in space that was really a war inside myself: fear of loss, fear of failure, fear of collapse, fear of not being able to protect the people I love. And just when the darkness felt overwhelming, support arrived in the form of white light, my wife's essence, reminding me that even in the deepest battles, I'm not alone. Then came the purge… the clearing… the release. And what unfolded next were two funerals.One for the fear that my daughter needed saving.One for the fear that money could crumble my life at any moment. Grandmother melted my illusions, literally, and showed me the quiet truth beneath survival:Humans are here to love. Everything else is noise. Night One left me humbled, emptied, and changed. I wasn't done healing… but something irreversible had shifted.

Tema del dia Després d'unes setmanes sense parlar, el Joan i l'Andreu es posen al dia: viatges, mudances, obres... Parlem també de la Fira del Llibre de Guadalajara i d'una nova obsessió de l'Andreu: els noms de pobles i ciutats catalans. Som-hi! Inscripcions obertes als pròxims cursos de català! Les classes comencen el 7 de gener. (https://classes.easycatalan.org/) Bonus L'Andreu explica algunes anècdotes del seu viatge a l'Argentina. Transcripció Andreu: [0:15] Bon dia, Joan! Joan: [0:16] Bon dia, Andreu! Andreu: [0:18] Ui, ja començo malament. Bé, estic malalt. Joan: [0:29] T'anava a dir: "Com estàs?", perquè fa dues setmanes que no parlem, però ja ho veig. Andreu: [0:35] Sí. Vaig tornar del viatge malalt, de fet vaig estar dos terceres parts del viatge amb un refredat molt fort, que va començar com si fos una grip, perquè vaig estar dos o tres dies així amb febre, llavors la cosa va… es va suavitzar i vaig estar molts dies amb mucositat i tos, i els tres últims dies altre cop amb febre i molta tos, i al final va ser una bronquitis. Llavors, aquesta setmana he estat que no servia per a res i encara m'estic recuperant. Joan: [1:05] Però el viatge va anar bé o no vas poder-ne gaudir? Andreu: [1:08] Sí! No, sí, sí, ho vam fer tot, gràcies a la medicina, a la ciència, als (ibuprofens) i paracetamols. Sí, vam fer totes les excursions, vam veure les glaceres… bé, la més famosa és el Perito Moreno. Joan: [1:22] Perquè vas explicar que anaves a l'Argentina, en episodis anteriors? Andreu: [1:25] Crec que sí, que vaig dir que anava a l'Argentina. Potser el que no vaig dir va ser que anava concretament a la part del sud, de la Patagònia, que són tot paratges naturals brutals. Joan: [1:36] Preciosos. Molt bé. Andreu: [1:38] I, vull dir, molts llacs, moltes muntanyes… A la part del Calafate, que és com més o menys al mig de la Patagònia, és tot… bé, a l'Argentina hi ha molt territori que és estepa, no?, que és com desert, pràcticament, no hi ha res. I llavors tu estàs allà, veus l'estepa, que és tot més o menys pla, no hi ha pràcticament vegetació i tal, i de cop tens els Andes, bum!, muntanyes, saps? O sigui, no és com aquí que tenim el Prepirineu, que comença a haver-hi una mica de muntanyes, que es van fent més altes, més altes… Joan: [2:11] O sigui, és com si de cop pugés una muntanya allà a l'horitzó enorme, no? Andreu: [2:15] Sí, sí, sí. O sigui, tu estàs al desert i, de cop, muntanyes nevades. És molt curiós. I els llacs també són impressionants… Hi ha un llac que es diu Lago Argentino, que té un color blau cel, però un blau superclar, que es veu que és pels sediments de les glaceres, que generen a l'erosionar la roca, no?, perquè, clar, tot aquell gel, que és neu compactada, però és gel, diguéssim, doncs fa això, una erosió de la roca, que després deixa unes partícules en suspensió a l'aigua que no acaben mai de precipitar. I llavors té aquest color com... és com un… sí, un blau molt molt claret, no ho sé, molt curiós. Joan: [2:56] Que curiós. Andreu: [2:57] I després, més al sud, a Ushuaia, que en diuen "el fin del mundo", la Tierra de Fuego, doncs allà vam veure pingüins, lleons marins, també, vam veure còndors… Joan: [3:09] Molt bé, molt bé. Andreu: [3:10] Buà, va ser… va ser molt molt guai.

En este primer capítulo nos lanzamos a explorar viñedos que parecen desafiar todas las expectativas. Desde las alturas nevadas del Himalaya hasta las tierras volcánicas de Hawái, pasando por los extremos tropicales y los valles andinos de Argentina y Bolivia, descubrimos cómo se produce vino en los lugares más insólitos y remotos del mundo. Hablamos de climas extremos, suelos difíciles, logística compleja y microclimas que obligan a replantear cada paso en la viticultura. Aquí no se trata solo de altitud o temperatura: hablamos de territorios que parecen imposibles, donde la naturaleza desafía al hombre y la uva demuestra ser sorprendentemente aguerrida. Acompáñanos en este recorrido global, desde Tailandia y Birmania hasta Yunnan, China, y los Andes sudamericanos, y descubre cómo, contra todo pronóstico, se producen vinos de alta calidad que cuentan historias de perseverancia, innovación y aventura en cada sorbo.

Ready to fall asleep under the stars? Join Geoffrey as he tells you about the time a campfire debate over who built Machu Picchu swept him and his friends onto the path of time.

This sleepy tale will have you drifting off in minutes. This is Part 80 of The Falls series - but don't worry, you can jump in anytime.  Love Night Falls?

Transcript:Es: En lo alto de las majestuosas montañas de los Andes, envueltas en una fina niebla, se encontraba el Templo Oculto.En: High atop the majestic Andes mountains, shrouded in a thin mist, lay the Hidden Temple.Es: Este antiguo templo de piedra, cubierto parcialmente por la vegetación, guardaba secretos del pasado.En: This ancient stone temple, partially covered by vegetation, held secrets of the past.Es: A través de sus puertas, se aventuraban Mateo, Luciana y Valeria, tres amigos con un propósito claro.En: Through its doors ventured Mateo, Luciana, and Valeria, three friends with a clear purpose.Es: Mateo, lleno de energía y ansias por descubrir el artefacto legendario que prometía sabiduría, caminaba con determinación.En: Mateo, full of energy and eager to discover the legendary artifact that promised wisdom, walked with determination.Es: Luciana, con su naturaleza práctica y cautelosa, seguía de cerca, preocupada por los peligros ocultos y decidida a cuidar de sus amigos.En: Luciana, with her practical and cautious nature, followed closely, worried about hidden dangers and determined to take care of her friends.Es: Valeria, aunque entusiasta, luchaba por dejar atrás sus inseguridades y demostrar su valía.En: Valeria, though enthusiastic, struggled to leave behind her insecurities and prove her worth.Es: Al adentrarse en el templo, el aire era frío y húmedo.En: As they entered the temple, the air was cold and damp.Es: Los pasos de los tres resonaban en los pasillos de piedra, cubiertos de musgo.En: The footsteps of the three echoed in the stone corridors, covered with moss.Es: A lo lejos, podían escuchar el eco de gotas de agua cayendo.En: In the distance, they could hear the echo of water droplets falling.Es: Al llegar a una bifurcación, Mateo insistió en seguir hacia la izquierda.En: Upon reaching a fork, Mateo insisted on going to the left.Es: Sentía que el artefacto estaba más cerca.En: He felt the artifact was closer.Es: “No sé, Mateo.En: “I don't know, Mateo.Es: Puede ser peligroso,” advirtió Luciana, preocupada.En: It could be dangerous,” warned Luciana, worried.Es: “Esta zona no parece estable.” Valeria, sintiendo la tensión, decidió apoyar a Mateo.En: “This area doesn't seem stable.” Valeria, sensing the tension, decided to support Mateo.Es: Anhelaba demostrar que podía ser valiente.En: She longed to show that she could be brave.Es: “Luciana, juntos podemos hacerlo.En: “Luciana, together we can do it.Es: Encontraremos el artefacto,” dijo con una sonrisa que ocultaba su propia incertidumbre.En: We'll find the artifact,” she said with a smile that hid her own uncertainty.Es: El pasillo comenzó a estrecharse.En: The corridor began to narrow.Es: Las paredes se cerraban más y más, hasta que el sonido de un estruendo los sorprendió.En: The walls closed in more and more until the sound of a crash surprised them.Es: El techo empezó a colapsar.En: The ceiling began to collapse.Es: Sin tiempo para reaccionar, el trío quedó atrapado entre escombros, la salida bloqueada por piedras.En: Without time to react, the trio was trapped amid the rubble, the exit blocked by stones.Es: La oscuridad era opresiva.En: The darkness was oppressive.Es: Mateo sintió el peso de su temor más profundo: desaparecer sin dejar huella.En: Mateo felt the weight of his deepest fear: disappearing without a trace.Es: Pero entonces, recordó las palabras de Valeria y la preocupación de Luciana.En: But then, he remembered Valeria's words and Luciana's concern.Es: “Tenemos que unir fuerzas,” pensó.En: “We have to join forces,” he thought.Es: Con calma, Luciana sugirió: “Si empujamos juntos, podemos mover las piedras más grandes.” Valeria, con renovada confianza, comenzó a trabajar con los demás, buscando fisuras y empujando con toda su fuerza.En: Calmly, Luciana suggested: “If we push together, we can move the bigger stones.” Valeria, with renewed confidence, began to work with the others, looking for cracks and pushing with all her strength.Es: Mateo, inspirado por sus amigos, dio lo mejor de sí mismo.En: Mateo, inspired by his friends, gave his best effort.Es: Después de un esfuerzo persistente, lograron abrir paso.En: After persistent effort, they managed to open a way.Es: La luz del exterior filtró una chispa de esperanza.En: The light from outside filtered a spark of hope.Es: Exhaustos pero unidos, salieron al aire libre, dejando atrás el templo.En: Exhausted but united, they emerged into the open air, leaving the temple behind.Es: No había artefacto en sus manos, pero algo más valioso había emergido.En: There was no artifact in their hands, but something more valuable had emerged.Es: Mateo comprendió que ser recordado no era solo un acto de fama, sino de impacto en sus amistades.En: Mateo understood that being remembered was not just an act of fame, but of impact on his friendships.Es: Luciana aprendió que arriesgarse a veces es necesario.En: Luciana learned that taking risks is sometimes necessary.Es: Y Valeria sintió el poder de su nueva confianza.En: And Valeria felt the power of her newfound confidence.Es: Juntos, se detuvieron para admirar las montañas solitarias que se elevaban a su alrededor.En: Together, they paused to admire the solitary mountains rising around them.Es: “Quizás no hallamos el artefacto,” reflexionó Mateo, “pero lo que encontramos es mucho mejor.” Con sonrisas y miradas cómplices, descendieron la montaña, llevando consigo un tesoro de unidad y amistad más valioso que cualquier joya escondida.En: “Perhaps we didn't find the artifact,” reflected Mateo, “but what we found is much better.” With smiles and knowing glances, they descended the mountain, carrying with them a treasure of unity and friendship more valuable than any hidden jewel.

La inteligencia artificial ya no es solo un chatbot simpático que responde correos o escribe resúmenes. Hoy también participa, silenciosamente, en decisiones que pueden cambiar una vida: filtra hojas de vida, ayuda a decidir quién recibe un subsidio, quién cruza una frontera o qué caso entra primero al despacho de un juez. Y, como aprende de nuestros datos y de nuestra historia, también puede aprender nuestros prejuicios.En este episodio de IA, luego existo, la cuarta temporada de Clase a la Casa nos preguntamos qué pasa con los derechos humanos cuando esas decisiones empiezan a tomarlas algoritmos que casi nadie entiende ni puede cuestionar. Hablamos de discriminación algorítmica, de sesgos de género, raza y clase incrustados en sistemas automatizados, y de casos concretos: desde algoritmos de selección laboral que penalizan a ciertas personas sin que lo sepan, hasta herramientas usadas en procesos migratorios o judiciales que operan como cajas negras.Nuestras invitadas son Carolina Botero, una de las voces más importantes en justicia algorítmica y derechos digitales en América Latina, y Natalia Ramírez, profesora de la Facultad de Derecho de la Universidad de los Andes, experta en derecho laboral y discriminación, que ha estudiado cómo la IA ya está afectando quién entra y quién queda fuera del mercado de trabajo.Una producción de 070 Podcasts y la Dirección de Comunicaciones de la Universidad de los Andes.

¡Allinllachu! This episode features a Quechua-language conversation with Cristopher Vargas, a Cusco-based Quechua translator and storyteller who dubs well-known anime and films into Quechua on TikTok and YouTube. He was one of the young fellows of the 2025 National Geographic Photo Camp in Washington, D.C., and later joined Professor Odi Gonzales's Quechua classes at NYU's Center for Latin American and Caribbean Studies (CLACS). His work is part of a growing movement of Quechua language revitalization and cultural reclamation among younger generations in the Andes and across the diaspora. More and more, youth are using social media and digital platforms to promote and circulate Quechua and other forms of Andean knowledge. Film dubbing has become a powerful strategy within this movement, raising key questions about copyright, translation ethics, language preservation, and cultural identity. It also underscores the urgent need for Indigenous communities--especially children and youth--to access media in their own languages.

Holly Laskey shares her story of changing her life and following her dream. She takes us to 11,000 feet elevation in the Andes mountains of Peru. Twelve years ago she and Peruvian sound healer Tito la Rosa combed the hillsides, seeking the ideal spot to build a retreat and ceremonial center. Holly describes this journey and the experiences she encountered on the way to building Ancestral Highlands -- working with architects to recreate buildings of the ancient Peruvian time, including the Espejo de Agua reflecting pool for ceremonies led by gifted shamans.

El boom de la gastronomía latinoamericana es innegable. Chefs latinoamericanos están tocando el cielo con una multiplicación de estrellas Michelin y los rankings mundiales premian la creatividad de la región. En la edición 2025 de los 50s best, los 50 mejores, diez restaurantes latinoamericanos se destacan.  La gastronomía peruana y mexicana siguen dominando, pero otra cocina también compite en las grandes ligas: la ecuatoriana. Ecuador exporta menús de primera hasta París, capital del buen comer por excelencia. Y precisamente de buen comer vamos a hablar con el chef ecuatoriano Raúl Meza que abrió hace poco "Le Vertueux", el Virtuoso en español. El amor por la cocina de Raúl Meza no empieza en los fogones, nace más bien con la televisión: "Todo comenzó a los 12 o 13 años cuando recién llegamos a París, a Francia con los primeros concursos televisivos de cocina como Masterchef o Topchef". Si en casa la comida era simple y el menú poco o nada ecuatoriano, al chef Meza le gusta recordar la "ratatouille" de su madre. Este plato muy simple preparado con berenjenas, calabazas y tomate que requiere ingredientes muy frescos y algo de arte. "Es un pilar de la gastronomía francesa", dice. La llegada a Francia tan jovencito fue un choque al paladar que lo llevó a interesarse por la cocina de su nuevo país, estudiar gastronomía y aprende con los mejores. Se formó con Michel Rostang - dos estrellas Michelin- trabajó también con Alain Senderens- tres estrellas Michelin. Desde abajo como aprendiz y luego hacia arriba, ocupa todos los puestos que se deben y pueden ocupar en una brigada durante el aprendizaje. De esos años codeádose con chefs reconocidos le queda el gusto por la "precisión", amistades duraderas y la curiosidad por la mezcla de influencias sin olvidar "ser constante y amar lo que haces, porque si no lo amas realmente con el trabajo es muy duro". Un viaje hacia las raíces En ese entonces, los ingredientes ecuatorianos no forman parte de su repertorio. Pero en las cocinas donde trabaja le piden cada vez más que proponga platos sudamericanos, "pero me eran poco conocidos". Un viaje por su natal Ecuador en 2015 y luego un periplo por los países vecinos de tres años le abrirán un mundo de sabores: "Tuve la suerte de estar en la Amazonía, en Galápagos también viajé por toda la Cordillera de los Andes, conociendo la papa, el maíz, las variedades inmensas que hay de papa, las variedades inmensas de maíz. El verde. El plátano. Todo lo que es el pescado, la manera de cocinarlo muy diferente acá, los gustos. Esos sabores que poco a poco fui aprendiendo a lo largo de mis viajes".  Al regresar a París se incorpora en otro restaurante de prestigio, pero la semillita de abrir un restaurante propio ya estaba plantada. En el famoso Georges V observa cómo el chef- casado con una mexicana- incorpora las influencias de esa cocina. De todo ese caminar surge la idea de proponer una experiencia gastronómica en París inspirada de la comida ecuatoriana.  Un boom de cocina latinoamericana en París Le Vertueux abre en marzo del 2025 con foie gras escalfado en cacao de Perú acompañado de su condimento de maracuya o fruta de la pasión, camarón carabinero encocado y gnocchis de banano verde: "Tenemos productos sudamericanos, cacao, café, productos que van a venirse a mezclar con los productos típicos franceses de aquí. La gente que ha probado le ha gustado esa mezcla entre el amargo del café, lo ácido del maracuyá". La apertura de este restaurante se inscribe en un boom de restaurantes gastronómicos y no gastronómicos latinoamericanos en París: "Poco a poco la cocina sudamericana se está haciendo conocer mucho más. Cambia un poquito también de la influencia asiática que había antes aquí en París y ayuda a descubrir sabores, productos, frutos interesantes con gustos mucho más fuertes, mucho más ácidos que a los ecuatorianos y a los franceses les está gustando mucho más." La pregunta que se plantea es si la fusión es una obligación para acercar al público francés a esta gastronomía: "Nosotros hicimos muchos test antes de lanzar los menús, no es necesario utilizar el foie gras. Podemos utilizar la comida un poquito más natural, como hacemos en América Latina. Pero sí, lo que sí hay es que adaptar los gustos, porque muchas veces lo que tuvimos es que los gustos eran demasiado fuertes o no bien acogidos. Entonces poco a poco vamos regulando los sabores, lo ácido más que todo para llegar al paladar francés, que sí está ávido de encontrar,nuevos gustos, pero al mismo tiempo quieren también tener la armonía que conocen en los platos".    #EscalaenParís también está en redes sociales Un programa coordinado por Melissa Barra y Julia Courtois, realizado por Hadrien Toureaud y Guillaume Buffé

You can contact me here: rick@ricksaez.com Show Notes WHAT HAPPENED: Ever planned the trip of a lifetime… only to have your wallet vanish before the adventure even begins? Yeah. That was me. I was in Peru, fresh off a 40-hour journey, jetlagged, under-caffeinated, and apparently running on "let's misplace everything" mode. Somewhere between airport security and the Lima coffee line, my wallet poofed into thin air. Great start to a solo trip through the Andes, right? But here's the wild part — losing that wallet wasn't the disaster it felt like. It became the perfect kick-in-the-hiking-boots reminder that adaptability isn't just an outdoor skill — it's a life skill. That week, I slept in tents outside of homes where I didn't speak the language, ate potatoes dug straight from the dirt, and learned how "risk" and "reward" share the same trail. PRINCIPLE: What I learned — or remembered — was this: the outdoors doesn't wait for your plans to be perfect. And neither does life. You don't need permission, pristine conditions, or even a full wallet to step into something bigger than your comfort zone. You just need to go. And trust that you'll figure it out as you go. TRANSITION: But here's where most of us get stuck — not because we lack the gear or the desire, but because we've been trained to wait for the right moment. The right job title. The right guide. The right, whatever. And in that waiting, we lose the chance to hear what nature — and our own gut — is trying to say. THAT'S WHY: That's why I had Heather on the podcast. Because she gets it, she's blended a high-level marketing career with nature photography, conservation storytelling, and a serious dose of wild adventure. She talks about everything from leadership lessons in the backcountry to how observing owls in the city can rewire your creative brain. If you've ever wondered whether the outdoors can really shift your mindset, your leadership style, or even your career — this episode is for you. CALL TO ACTION: Feeling stuck in the scroll, burned out from the noise, and unsure where to begin? That's your sign. Stop waiting. Start small. And listen to this episode. It might just be the nudge your nervous system — and your soul — has been craving. Follow up with Heather on her website: Heather Physioc, Speaker & Trainer

Peru is famous for its diverse and innovative cuisine - but how is it making sure its venerable food heritage is preserved for decades to come? We meet the indigenous Quechua people who are cultivating more than 1300 species of potato, working with scientists to safeguard seeds in community banks as part of both ecological and cultural efforts. And we hear how communities in the high Andes are turning back to crops like quinoa and kiwacha in the face of climate pressures and the desire to boost nutrition.People Fixing The World from the BBC is about brilliant solutions to the world's problems.

Peru is home to Machu Picchu - the ancient Inca city in the Andes mountains. It's one of the seven wonders of the world, and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The popular tourist destination attracts millions of visitors, making it very lucrative for the government, local and international businesses.But Machu Picchu is in trouble. Social conflicts, fights over who benefits from the money being made through ticket sales and transport are just some of the problems its facing. Jane Chambers visits Peru to find out what's going on and if there are other local sites for tourist to visit instead.Produced and presented by Jane Chambers Editor: Helen Thomas(Image: A group of tourists waves while leaving on foot due to a protest by residents in Machu Picchu on 16 September 2025 over which bus company should run the local route.

Host Maxwell Porter is joined by two experts to explore the geological and tectonic evolution of the iconic Laramide Porphyry Copper Province, focusing on its complex geodynamic history and the key exploration criteria that define this world-class copper belt. Our guests share complementary academic and industry perspectives, offering insights drawn from decades of research and field experience.The Geological Framework and Exploration vectors in the Globe-Miami DistrictOur first guest is Dr. Robert Lee. Robert earned his PhD at Oregon State University studying the El Salvador porphyry copper deposit in Chile. He then joined Freeport-McMoRan as a greenfields exploration geologist working across North America, the Philippines, and Europe. In 2014, he moved to UBC's MDRU, leading and contributing to research projects on tools to vector towards economic ore deposits, across the Western Tethyan Belt to the Andes and British Columbia. Since 2022, Robert has been a Principal Geoscientist with BHP's Generative Porphyry Copper team. His expertise centers on porphyry copper formation, mineral chemistry, and innovative tools for exploration, including zircon as a vector to ore.Tectonic controls on porphyry deposit formation in ArizonaOur second guest is Professor Thomas Lamont. Thomas is a structural geologist and petrologist whose work links tectonics, crustal evolution, and the formation of major ore systems. His research combines field mapping with advanced analytical tools, from EPMA and thermobarometry to isotopic and geochronological techniques. He completed his DPhil at the University of Oxford, investigating how the Cycladic Islands in Greece evolved from a compressional to an extensional tectonic regime. In a later postdoctoral role, he focused on the Laramide porphyry province of the southwestern United States, showing how flat-slab subduction drove water-fluxed melting and porphyry copper formation. Thomas now leads research into how subduction geometry shapes the thermal and mechanical state of the lithosphere and its mineral endowment in addition to other topics, as an assistant professor of Structural Geology and Tectonics at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas.Many thanks to VRIFY for sponsoring Season 5 of Discovery to Recovery.Theme music is  Confluence by Eastwindseastwindsmusic.com

En este episodio hablamos con Diego Martínez, mentor del Centro de Emprendimiento de la Universidad de los Andes, sobre el verdadero camino para emprender desde la vida universitaria. Exploramos por qué la universidad no siempre enseña a emprender, pero sí puede convertirse en el mayor impulso: qué recursos existen, a quién acudir, errores frecuentes, primeros pasos y casos reales de estudiantes que transformaron una idea en un proyecto viable.

Aujourd'hui, j'ai le b-honneur immense d'ouvrir une nouvelle mini-série de 4 épisodes avec Camille DENOY sur les sagesses ancestrales d'Amérique latine. Ce premier épisode est dédié aux sagesses des plantes médicinales de ces terres si riches, diversifiées et nourricières du continent sud américain que Camille explore depuis plusieurs années maintenant.Camille vit à Medellin en Colombie, au cœur de la cordillère des Andes, avec son compagnon et ses trois filles. Elle revient sur sa double casquette professionnelle : l'une en tant quedoula, un métier qu'elle exerce depuis plus de 8 ans, après avoir connu une première grossesse arrêtée in utero ; l'autre en tant que conseillère dans les filières responsables avec les producteurs de terroirs, en France, en Europe, en Asie et en Amérique latine. Camille nous inonde d' informations sourcées sur les plantes qu'elle a reçues soit par transmissions orales, au contact des populations locales, soit au travers de sa grande passion d'investigation qui l'anime tant.Camille nous décrit ici ce qu'est la medicina en Amérique latine, un usage des plantes quotidien en prévention et non en curation comme on le pratique dans nos frontières. Un riche échange sur les vertus des plantes de la main de celle/celui qui les cultive, les récolte jusqu'à leur utilisation.Camille met l'accent sur la richesse naturelle incroyable de la Colombie, reconnue comme le deuxième pays les plus riches en biodiversité au monde, après le Brésil. Elle revient aussi sur le pillage de certaines terres et sur l'importance de tout à chacun de prendre ce temps d'explorer l'environnement qui nous entoure, de ré-apprendre la magie des plantes de nos terroirs en les ressentant et en les consommant en conscience.Entre la coca, le viche et les multiples rituels autours de la maternité, Camille vous embarque dans un voyage qui vous transcendera de multiples façons afin de vous permettre d'ouvrir de nouveaux horizons et vous proposer une nouvelle lecture des plantes qui nous entourent, nous portent et nous apportent depuis la nuit des temps ...Un immense MERCI à Camille pour sa présence et sa confiance !➡️ Pour retrouver Camille sur Instagram : @mamacam__ / @soror.collective

¿Cómo enfrentar la crisis de los anfibios sin perder la esperanza? El biólogo y divulgador científico CARLOS GUARNIZO, Ph.D. en Ecología, Evolución y Comportamiento, habla sobre su investigación en biogeografía de ranas en los Andes colombianos y la URGENCIA de comunicar la ciencia. Las ranas llevan millones de años en la Tierra, pero enfrentan amenazas recientes causadas por acciones humanas: PÉRDIDA DE HÁBITATS por deforestación, CONTAMINACIÓN del agua y el hongo quitridio que las asfixia. El tráfico de especies es el tercer negocio ilícito más lucrativo del planeta y mata ocho de cada diez de sus víctimas. Guarnizo explica que muchos animales incautados no pueden regresar a sus ecosistemas y requieren de espacios y cuidados profesionales adecuados para especie. Guarnizo subraya, además, que la divulgación de las ciencias es una RESPONSABILIDAD para lograr que las sociedades mejoren su calidad de vida y conozcan mejor el entorno que las rodea. "Si un investigador encuentra algo novedoso y solo lo comunica en congresos y artículos académicos, esa información se queda atrapada", explica. La solución requiere MÚLTIPLES ESTRATEGIAS: enseñar a los científicos a comunicar desde la formación, salir de las universidades a los barrios y experimentar con FORMATOS DIVERSOS —danza, poesía, hip hop, conciertos, libros infantiles— que lleguen a nuevas audiencias. CARLOS GUARNIZO es biólogo, divulgador científico y creador de iniciativas como Ciencia Café Pasu Mercé. Coautor del libro "Tiburones, una experiencia submarina", creador del programa de TV Andbuster y autor de "Dinosaurios, una travesía cretácica". CRISTINA ROMERO RÍOS es ingeniera ambiental con maestría en Comunicación de la Ciencia de la Universidad de Edimburgo, Escocia. Es coautora del libro “Colombia de arriba abajo” (Editorial Lazo), autora e ilustradora del libro infantil "El Bosque Seco" y ”Vumbora pra Caatinga!”.

erasureemulating sand mandalas(note: you can read the original posting here)It's November 1st, 2025 and as you can hear, I'm not at home. We've been traveling for the last couple of weeks in Ecuador. We're now in the Amazon near Tena in the territory of the Kichwa people (Anaconda Lodge).I'm reading you this a calm presence posting called erasure. What I've just done, or I will do soon, is erase all 81 postings that I have made in French and in English, on this Substack.I'm starting from scratch, and it feels good.Let me explain…When I first launched a calm presence in February of 2024, my intentions were to share my learnings ‘for those in need of a calm presence'. That's a term that I borrowed from Dharma teacher Catherine Ingram.And it was successful. People would respond and I would essentially think out loud.But I've come to realize that these essays and opinion pieces - heartfelt as they might be - are snapshots in time that quickly become outdated. They weren't meant to be kept, really, but I kept them anyway, because that's the way we do things.We don't throw things out, partially because of vanity, but also to have a trail of one's work or thinking. A few days ago we were hiking in the Andes and the Tibetan Buddhist tradition of sand mandalas came to mind, so I went to Wikipedia. Sand mandalas are defined as :the creation and destruction of mandalas made from colored sand. Once complete, the sand mandala's ritualistic dismantling is accompanied by ceremonies and viewings to symbolize Buddhist doctrinal belief in the transitory nature of material life. The transitory nature of material life, which is more or less what a calm presence is about. This got me thinking : what if, with all due respect to Tibetan culture and any cultural borrowings, I emulated the creation and the destructive process of sand mandalas with the content and form of a calm presence. If not emulate, then at least be inspired by this way of creating, knowing that it will be returned to the Earth, so to speak.And since this is a digital art or digital project, I started thinking about what it meant for all those digits that retain the knowledge somehow, or at least carry it, what happens when they get dispersed? And so it opened up a whole new world, new way of thinking about writing and dissemination and memory and related issues. I was inspired by the sand mandala tradition. I'll read you a quote of how it's described : into flowing water to symbolize the cycle of life and the dissolution of the physical world.So when the sand is returned, it is through water and then dispersed back into nature. And there's the healing energy side to things that also interests me and that I will explore further. I think the idea is when somebody reads a calm presence posting, it is metabolized. They retain whatever they want to retain. It can be a word or two, a couple of thoughts, and then that's it. There's no need to go back to it. After a few weeks of it being present in our lives, it disappears.And another comes along when it's relevant and so on and so forth. There isn't the accumulation, there's simply an experiencing that goes on as part of day-to-day life. I like that and I'm going to give it a try. And if you so wish, you can continue to follow and hear or read these postings, which won't be much longer than this one today. And before leaving, I want to thank the 290 subscribers to a calm presence. It's been good to have the company and the exchange, but I also want to remind you that you're more than welcome to unsubscribe if you want to take a break. Don't feel obliged, I won't be offended.This is a kind of word-of-mouth activity. The way that I read and share, I think, is the way I like to work. If something inspires you or motivates you or resonates somehow, I just let that be shared in whichever way you want. Sometimes it's a story, sometimes it's an electronic transfer passing on. This is the first of these new postings, the Sand Mandela inspired series which will disappear soon. I wish you all the best.*Cover photo of moss at 4100 meters, Quito, Ecuador by Claude Schryer *END NOTES FOR ALL EPISODESHey conscient listeners, I've been producing the conscient podcast as a learning and unlearning journey since May 2020 on un-ceded Anishinaabe Algonquin territory (Ottawa). It's my way to give back.In parallel with the production of the conscient podcast and its francophone counterpart, balado conscient, I I publish a free ‘a calm presence' monthly Substack see https://acalmpresence.substack.com.Your feedback is always welcome at claude@conscient.ca and/or on social media: Facebook, Instagram, Linkedin, Threads, BlueSky, Mastodon, Tik Tok, YouTube and Substack.Share what you like, etcI am grateful and accountable to the earth and the human labour that provided me with the privilege of producing this podcast, including the toxic materials and extractive processes behind the computers, recorders, transportation systems and infrastructure that made this production possible.

Long before recorded history, ancient myths described gods descending from the sky — beings of light who gave humanity knowledge, language, and power. Were they divine... or extraterrestrial? In this episode of Conspiracy Files with Paige Carter, we dive into the Ancient Astronaut Theory — from the mysterious carvings of Sumer and Egypt to the impossible architecture of the Andes. Could ancient gods have been ancient visitors? The evidence is older, stranger, and far more compelling than you think.

A flotilla of Indigenous leaders have made a symbolic journey from the glaciers of the Andes to Belém, Brazil in time for the COP30 climate summit.Their mission: to demand a greater role in climate talks and protections for their territories, as extraction industries and climate change press ever deeper into Indigenous lands.Super Typhoon Fung-wong has weakened after battering the Philippines this weekend.Wind speeds of around 115 mph dropped to between 80 and 100 mph as the storm moved northeast towards Taiwan.An international team of scientists has achieved a world-first, creating plasma 'fireballs' to discover how powerful jets from distant black holes stay stable.Pablo Bilbau, a postdoctoral research fellow at the University of Oxford, explained what they've been doing and whyAlso in this episode:China has partially lifted export controls on key computer chips used in car productionA new national forest has been confirmed for the Oxford-Cambridge corridorScientists say camels and llamas could help unlock new treatments for brain disorders Hosted on Acast.

There’s nothing in the night sky quite like the Pleiades. The star cluster forms a tiny dipper. Depending on sky conditions and the viewer’s eyesight, anywhere from a half dozen to a dozen stars or more are visible to the naked eye. Its unique visage has made the Pleiades one of the most important sky objects in many cultures. The people of the Andes timed the start of the harvest season to its first appearance in the dawn sky. The Aztec year began at about the same time. In Hawaii, the Pleiades was known as Makali’i. And the year began when Makali’i first appeared in the evening twilight – the middle of November. The year, the new year, and a festival period shared a name: Makahiki. The customs varied from island to island. But they had a lot in common. The celebration lasted for several months. Warfare and most work were banned. Instead, people danced, feasted, played sports, and reconnected with family and friends. And they made offerings to Lono, a god of agriculture, music, and peace. The Pleiades is just climbing into the evening twilight, in the east-northeast, across Hawaii and most of the rest of the country. In some Hawaiian traditions, Makahiki doesn’t begin until the first appearance of the crescent Moon in the west after the Pleiades returns. That’s coming up on the 21st – the start of the new year and the celebration that honors it. Hau’oli makahiki hou! – Happy New Year! Script by Damond Benningfield

JohnsonFans of Richard Price, Charlie Huston, and Jonathan Lethem will love this coming-of-age New York-centric detective noir debut from esteemed filmmaker and screenwriter Alex R. Johnson. New York City, 1998. New York is changing around Nico Kelly, and he can feel more coming. A private investigator and self-proclaimed photographer, Nico is stuck in a loop of city contracts and self loathing. What little middle class there was is disappearing—long-standing factories are moving out and taking their reliable neighborhood jobs with them, and Mayor Rudy Giuliani's police force has the streets in a stranglehold. Nico spends his days looking for fraudsters while taking photos of municipal employees on disability claims. He spends his nights trying to get rid of the nagging feeling that his day job makes him a professional snitch—traversing dive bars, playing pinball, and fighting through the haze of hungover mornings and blurry evenings.Pushing thirty years old and feeling split between his American and Latin heritage, between youth and adulthood, Nico finds himself at a precipice—who is he and what should he become? When Nico witnesses and records a murder during one of his insurance fraud investigations, bodies start to turn up all around him and he's forced into solving a mystery he didn't ask to solve. Humorous, gritty, and real, Nico's search for what it means to be human takes him through the deepest and darkest parts of New York City.https://www.brooklynmotto.com/Support the show___https://livingthenextchapter.com/podcast produced by: https://truemediasolutions.ca/Coffee Refills are always appreciated, refill Dave's cup here, and thanks!https://buymeacoffee.com/truemediaca

Juan Ramon Matta Ballesteros began life as a pickpocket in his hometown of Tegucigalpa, before heading out on the perilous border roads of Latin America as an emerald smuggler. Soon he was making friends in high places, scoring deals on consignments of cocaine - and connecting coca producers in the Andes with up-and-coming narcos in Mexico. All the while, Matta forged ties with the elites and corrupt soldiers who'd run Honduras for a century, capturing the small state and ensuring its future as a coup-happy transshipment point for years to come. But when Matta took part in the narco world's most notorious murder, in 1985, his world came crashing down. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

In the late 1700s, Indigenous peoples in the Spanish colonies of the Andes were forced to work for the Spanish. They tilled the land, worked in the textile mills and the mines. Those that didn't faced heavy taxes. But in early November 1780, Indigenous Incan leader Tupac Amaru II led an uprising against the Spanish that he hoped would end it all.It was the largest revolt against colonial Spain. Thousands would join the months-long rebellion. It would inspire uprisings elsewhere across the continent, and independence leaders. South America would gain its freedom from Spain just 40 years later.BIG NEWS! This podcast has won Gold in this year's Signal Awards for best history podcast! It's a huge honor.

https://vimeo.com/1131876810?share=copy&fl=sv&fe=ci As we look around the world today, there's so much going on that is traumatizing so many people, and we're seeing all these repeating patterns of human history, and you might wonder, have we learned anything from the past? Why do we keep repeating these things? What's going on? And it's possible, it's just possible, for a moment, that what's happening is actually calling us back to wholeness. That all these traumas are actually some kind of evolutionary intelligence, a sacred survival mechanism that, when we meet with compassion and presence, can become a gateway to wholeness. And we're gonna hear about that today from our guest, Michael Stone, who is the author of the book "Traumatized: A Love Story, Healing the Wounds That Separate, Alienate, and Marginalize Us."  Tune in, to find out more! Michael Stone was born committed to healing.  Michael has led many transformational programs. He is a Gestalt Awareness practitioner, certified as a  5Rhythms Teacher, Trance Dance and Soul Motion.   Michael Stone was a faculty member of The Shift Network and currently offers workshops and healing circles. Watch or listen to the show to discover ways to connect with community,  integrate trauma and heal your soul. You're Invited!

Still waiting to be met and embraced. My story is just one thread in a much larger tapestry of human resilience and return. Healing begins when we stop pathologizing trauma and start listening to our bodies.   MICHAEL STONE BIO Michael Stone is a spiritual teacher, author, and organizational consultant whose work integrates modern trauma understanding with ancient practices of soul healing. For more than five decades, he has led individuals and groups through processes of awakening, embodiment, and transformation. As a trauma integration facilitator, and author of "Traumatized: A Love Story – Healing the Wounds that Separate, Alienate, and Marginalize Us"s, Michael's work reframes trauma not as a flaw to be fixed, but as an intelligent, sacred response—a misunderstood love story embedded in our nervous systems, calling us back to wholeness. Drawing from his background in Gestalt psychology, somatic awareness, and shamanic traditions, Michael's teachings illuminate trauma as an evolutionary intelligence—a sacred survival mechanism that, when met with compassion and presence, becomes a gateway to wholeness. Through his Healing & Integration Circles, retreats, and mentorship programs, he supports people in releasing inherited wounds and reclaiming the creative vitality of the nervous system. A lifelong student of teachers such as Thomas Hübl, Gabrielle Roth, and Sandra Ingerman, Michael bridges science, mysticism, and human connection to address the wounds of separation within the individual, the family system, and the collective field. His recent book, "Traumatized: A Love Story — Healing the Wounds that Separate, Alienate, and Marginalize Us", offers a powerful vision of how love, awareness, and embodied community can restore balance in a fragmented world.

This week on Hold Your Fire!, Richard talks with Crisis Group experts Phil Gunson and Renata Segura about U.S. military build-up off Venezuela's coast, strikes on alleged drug smuggling boats and whether Washington could depose Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro.In this episode of Hold Your Fire!, Richard speaks with Crisis Group's Venezuela and Andes expert Phil Gunson and Latin America & Caribbean director Renata Segura about the escalating tensions between the U.S. and Venezuela. They assess the large-scale military build-up off Venezuela's coast, officially framed as a counter-narcotics operation but widely seen as part of a broader campaign to pressure Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro. They unpack U.S. strikes on suspected drug smuggling boats and how effective such measures are in curbing the narcotics trade. They talk about the evolution of U.S. policy toward Venezuela, divisions within Donald Trump's team over policy and how Venezuelans view the latest escalation. They look at the role of Venezuela's military and armed groups and how they might respond to foreign intervention. Finally, they consider Washington's next steps and assess Trump's approach to the Western hemisphere more broadly and how Latin American leaders view his policies.
