Here's your first warning: Beneath the Trees Where Nobody Sees: Rite of Spring spoilers ahead! Patrick Horvath returns for a full spoilers breakdown of the sequel series to IDW Publishing's smash hit. Together, we consider the cartoonist's joyous relationship with beauty and horror, where Monica the Duck finds herself in the last panels of the final issue, and why we were so wrong about George the last time we spoke with Horvath. Or, were we? Sequels are a terrible, stressful thing to attempt, but we all know why they happen. Beneath the Trees Where Nobody Sees was too damn successful to be left alone, and thankfully, Horvath, the book's shepherd, returned to his drawing table with passion and a mission for his characters. Rite of Spring is not only better than the original series, but it must also be considered as one of the best comic book sequels of all time. And it's because it might leave certain readers fur-ious (sorry, not sorry) regarding where Horvath leaves (or drags) certain characters. Patrick Horvath is not afraid to hurt his comic book kids. However, as we discuss, there is as much love and beauty in his series as there is grotesque horror. Beneath the Trees Where Nobody Sees: Rite of Spring is a deeply human book, and as such, it stirs profound feelings within the reader. Also, yo, another sequel is coming. What can we expect? We put that question to Horvath, too. All six issues of Beneath the Trees Where Nobody Sees: Rite of Spring are out now from IDW Publishing.

Dr. Sue Morter returns to explore what it truly means to awaken — not as a concept, but as a lived, embodied experience. Beneath our protective personality and performance-driven identity lies a deeper intelligence — an electromagnetic master system that governs healing, perception, and consciousness itself.In this conversation, we explore how nervous system regulation opens the doorway to higher awareness, why triggers are invitations to reclaim lost parts of ourselves, and how building energetic circuitry transforms reactive patterns into creative power. From subtle anatomy and the Shoshumna channel to the relationship between consciousness and matter, this episode bridges science and spirituality in a grounded, practical way.Try LMNT & get a free sample pack https://drinkLMNT.com/KnowThyselfTry Boncharge & 15% off their red light deviceshttps://www.boncharge.com/knowthyselfKnow Thyself Community Event Waitlist: https://www.knowthyselfpodcast.com/liveAndré's Book Recs: https://www.knowthyselfpodcast.com/book-list___________00:00 Intro5:48 The Illusion of Inherent Brokenness11:37 The Fuel Behind Achievement17:21 The Protective Personality31:21 Ad: LMNT32:46 The Return to Second Innocence47:04 Ad: BON CHARGE48:13 Expanding the Space Between Stimulus and Response1:04:06 The Science of Subtle Anatomy1:29:24 The Limits of Spiritual Language1:43:07 Embodiment of Expanded Awareness1:49:02 Moving From Joy Instead of Lack1:54:16 The Transformative Power of Immersive Experience2:15:22 Surrendering Fully Into Feeling2:25:42 A Message to the Heart of Humanity___________Episode Resources: Dr. Sue Morter's book: https://nt113.isrefer.com/go/HYHYL-Book/KnowThyself/https://www.instagram.com/drsuemorterhttps://www.instagram.com/andreduqum/https://www.instagram.com/knowthyself/https://www.youtube.com/@knowthyselfpodcasthttps://www.knowthyselfpodcast.comListen to the show:Spotify: https://spoti.fi/4bZMq9lApple: https://apple.co/4iATICX

In this episode of Creating Richer Lives, Karl Eggerss uses a Jaws-style analogy to explain today's market—calm on the surface, but full of powerful forces moving underneath. While the major indexes appear to be treading water, real shifts are happening below the surface as money rotates between sectors amid changing interest rates, AI disruption, and geopolitical uncertainty. Karl breaks down how to separate real trends from noise and why resisting emotional, headline-driven decisions is critical. The takeaway: in a market like this, diversification, discipline, and strategy keep you from getting pulled under.

The Devil Within Wings of Prophecy — Part Two: The Final Witnesses At 5:04 PM on December 15, 1967, the Silver Bridge collapsed into the Ohio River. In less than a minute, forty-six lives were lost. But in the days leading up to the disaster, the people of Point Pleasant believed they had been watching something — or something had been watching them. In Part Two of Wings of Prophecy, we follow the Mothman legend to its devastating conclusion, tracing the final sightings, the growing sense of unease across the town, and the tragedy that forever linked folklore with one of America's deadliest infrastructure failures. Mothman 2 As winter closed in, witnesses reported that the sightings were changing. The creature that once appeared suddenly and vanished just as quickly now lingered in plain sight — perched, watching, almost as if standing vigil. One of the final reported encounters came just days before the collapse. By then, Point Pleasant had transformed. National attention brought curiosity seekers, investigators, and skeptics. Businesses leaned into the legend. Others resented the spectacle. Beneath it all, anxiety spread — strange dreams, unusual animal behavior, and a growing sense that something was wrong. Then came the engineering reality. Unseen inside the bridge's structure, a microscopic crack in a critical steel component had been growing for months — invisible to inspections at the time. Each passing vehicle added stress. Each day brought the structure closer to failure. On a December evening filled with Christmas shoppers, commuters, and families heading home, that hidden flaw reached its breaking point. The collapse was sudden. Catastrophic. Irreversible. In this episode: • The final reported Mothman sightings before the disaster • How Point Pleasant changed during thirteen months of national attention • The structural failure that caused the Silver Bridge collapse • Eyewitness accounts from the moments before and after the tragedy • How folklore and trauma became permanently intertwined in the community In the aftermath, the sightings stopped. The creature was never reported again. But the legend remained — not just as a monster story, but as a way for a grieving community to make sense of sudden, senseless loss. Because sometimes the mystery isn't whether something supernatural happened. Sometimes the mystery is how people survive what did.
What does it take to rebuild the foundation of American military power? Michael Cadenazzi, assistant secretary of defense for industrial base policy, joined Ryan at a live event a few weeks back for a fascinating discussion on the state of the defense industrial base (from new VC-backed entrants to the primes), the race for critical minerals, supply chain vulnerabilities, the unsexy realities of implementation, the role of allies, and the challenges of scaling production. He is also looking for your ideas. Special thanks to Altana for hosting the event at which this episode was recorded.

In 2007, while serving with the British Army in Germany, one soldier was assigned a routine task in the cellar of an aging barracks — a former Luftwaffe station dating back to the Second World War.The underground layout was identical in every building: a long concrete corridor, heavy metal doors, fluorescent lights buzzing against thick, shadowed walls. It was old, but it was familiar. Until it wasn't.Alone at the far end of the corridor, the atmosphere shifted without warning. The air grew heavy. Silence pressed in. And he was struck with the unmistakable certainty that he was no longer by himself.What happened next sent him running for the stairs — something no training had ever prepared him for.Years later, one question still lingers: Was that cellar empty at all?#RealGhostStories #HauntedBarracks #Hauntings #ParanormalEncounter #HauntedGermany #MilitaryGhostStory #TrueParanormal #UnexplainedCold #Paranormal #UnexplainedPhenomenaLove real ghost stories?

Bill Fleckenstein, founder and president of Fleckenstein Capital, returns for a wide-ranging conversation covering what he calls one of the most confusing macro environments of his 40-plus year career. He breaks down how the passive bid has fundamentally changed market dynamics, creating an artificially priced market that is not a true price discovery mechanism and cannot end well. Beneath the surface of a tape that is only a couple percent off all-time highs, Bill sees a stealth rotation away from high-flying tech and AI names into old economy stocks — but without the contagion a pre-passive-bid market would have experienced. On gold, Bill explains why the move to $5,000 is a function of eroding confidence, weaponized financial systems, and unmanageable sovereign debt — and why the bull market is far from over since Americans have barely shown up to the party. He also issues a pointed warning on bonds, arguing the bond market has not sanctioned the Fed's rate cuts in what could be the early stages of the market taking the printing press away from the Fed — and predicts yield curve control is likely coming under the next Fed chair regardless of who it is.Links: Book: https://www.amazon.com/Greenspans-Bubbles-Ignorance-Federal-Reserve/dp/0071591583 Twitter/X: https://twitter.com/fleckcap Website: https://www.fleckensteincapital.com/0:00 Intro and welcome back Bill Fleckenstein1:39 Big picture macro view - "confused"4:24 Splatterings beneath the surface — what's really happening in the market5:51 The passive bid explained — why rotation feels impossible7:25 The tape holds together while market cap gets destroyed underneath10:58 Why the market isn't cracking — what would have happened without the passive bid12:40 Is this still a free market?

What does it mean to build a life in images?In this episode of Ojai Talk of the Town, I sit down with Ojai-based artist Dennis Mukai, whose career spans commercial illustration, celebrity portrait photography, and a strikingly original fine art practice.Born in Hiroshima and raised in Southern California, Mukai trained at the Art Center College of Design before building a nationally recognized career as an illustrator and photographer. Over the decades, he has worked with major brands, major periodicals such as Playboy, photographed musicians and actors, and developed a meticulous layered painting technique in which he sands through pigment to reveal what lies beneath — work that feels at once cinematic, nostalgic, and quietly subversive.We talk about:• Growing up between cultures• The discipline of commercial art versus the freedom of fine art• Photographing public figures (especially beautiful women) — and searching for the private human inside the persona• Why process matters as much as product• How Ojai's light and stillness shape his current work• Reinvention, longevity, and what it means to keep evolvingThis is a conversation about craft, patience, beauty, and the long arc of an artistic life.We did not talk about cherry salmon, tiger maple or the architectural highlights of San Miguel de Allende. If you care about art, photography, discipline, or the creative journey itself — you'll enjoy this one. Check out Dennis' work at ...https://www.dennismukai.com/

You can get through most situations with a polished performance, saying the right things and showing the acceptable face. It works, technically. But something essential gets lost in that transaction, something about connection that runs deeper than social success. This episode examines the attitude of sincerity and why showing up genuinely matters more than most people admit. Beneath the rugged individualist stance, beneath the claim that you don't need anyone, there's usually something else asking to be recognized. What happens when you stop performing and start connecting?

Ice fishing turns into a frozen-lake nightmare in this chilling winter horror tale. A widower heads out onto thick, steel-strong ice for a quiet day on the lake—testing every step like his grandpa taught him—until the silence becomes unnatural, the surface starts to crack, and something black and slick glides beneath his fishing hole.What begins as a peaceful survival routine spirals into supernatural terror tied to old local secrets: an abandoned lakeside development, whispers of missing children, and a backwoods history that never stayed buried. When the ice finally breaks, it isn't just freezing water waiting below—it's a monster that shouldn't exist, and a fight that demands more than courage to survive.If you love scary stories, winter horror, creature features, and supernatural suspense with a hard-hitting emotional core, this one will hook you and drag you under. Don't trust the quiet. Don't trust the thickness. And whatever you do… always check the ice.ON THE ICE — by Douglas Waltz

Retired FBI agent and criminal profiler Candice DeLong examines the chilling case of Chris Watts, the seemingly devoted husband and father who killed his pregnant wife, Shanann, and their two young daughters in 2018. Beneath the picture-perfect surface of their Colorado home was a troubling combination of financial pressure, marital discord, and a secret affair. And as Chris began envisioning a future unburdened by responsibility, emotional detachment and his own self-interest gave way to an act of irreversible violence. Candice explores the mindset of a family annihilator, the calculated calm Chris maintained as suspicion mounted, and how a desire for reinvention led to the destruction of his entire family.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Our CIO and Chief U.S. Equity Strategist Mike Wilson explains why he still believes in a growth cycle for equity markets, even as investors show growing concerns around AI.Mike Wilson: Welcome to Thoughts on the Market. I'm Mike Wilson, Morgan Stanley's CIO and Chief U.S. Equity Strategist. Today on the podcast, I'll be discussing recent concerns around AI disruption. It's Tuesday, February 24th at 1pm in New York. So, let's get after it. Last week you could feel it, that anxious undercurrent in the market. The headlines were noisy, volatility ticked higher, and AI disruption, once again, dominated investor conversations. But beneath the surface level unease something important happened. The S&P 500 Equal Weight Index pushed to a new relative high, keeping our broadening thesis alive and well. On one hand, investors are worried about AI driven disruption, CapEx intensity, and potential labor force reductions. On the other hand, capital is still flowing into formerly lagging areas of the market, just as the median stock is seeing its strongest earnings growth in four years. Let's unpack this. First, there's concern AI will lead to job losses. But even if that's the case, there's typically a phase-in period. Companies don't just eliminate labor overnight. Importantly, before these productivity gains are fully realized, we need broad enterprise adoption. That means building out the agentic application layer, integrating AI into workflows, retraining systems and processes. That takes time, and it is still early days in that regard. Second, what we're seeing now is typical of a major investment cycle. Volatility increases as markets challenge the pace of unbridled spending. Dispersion increases as investors debate winners and losers. Leadership rotates, sometimes sharply. There's also something different this time compared to the internet bubble of the late 1990s. Today we're in an early cycle earnings backdrop. We've just emerged from what was effectively a rolling recession between 2022 and 2025. So, as capital rotates out of the perceived structural losers, it's not just chasing long-term AI beneficiaries, it's also finding classic cyclical winners. On the losing side is long duration services-oriented sectors, particularly software. These areas are more sensitive to uncertainty around longer term cash flows. This area also has a large overhang of private capital deployed over the last 10 to 15 years. There are other forces at play too. Small cap growth, arguably the longest duration segment of the market, began breaking down in late January around the time Kevin Warsh was nominated as Fed chair. While major indices barely reacted, more speculative areas may be responding to expectations of tighter liquidity given Warsh's, reputation as a balance sheet hawk. Finally, equity markets are typically more volatile when new Fed chairs assume office. Bottom line, our broader thesis of an early cycle rolling recovery remains intact. Market internals are supportive even if index level action feels choppy. That said, near term volatility is likely to persist as we enter a weaker seasonal window for retail demand, while liquidity remains ample, but far from abundant. With this backdrop, a quality cyclical barbell with healthcare makes sense. In small caps, the higher quality S&P 600 looks more attractive than the Russell 2000. And any short-term volatility could present opportunities to add exposure in preferred cyclical areas like Consumer Discretionary Goods, Industrials, and Financials. Of course, risks remain. AI adoption could accelerate faster than expected, pressuring labor markets more abruptly. Pricing power could erode as efficiency spread, and policy makers could react in ways that slow the CapEx cycle while crowded momentum positioning remains vulnerable. Nevertheless, the signal from the internals is clear. Beneath the volatility this looks less like a market rolling over, and more like one that is confirming an early cycle economic expansion. Thanks for tuning in. I hope you found it informative and useful. Let us know what you think by leaving us a review.

A winding two-mile road in Oldham County carries more than traffic. Beneath its tight curves and suffocating canopy lie abandoned estates, moral panics, unsolved murder, and decades of legend-tripping. On Sleepy Hollow Road, engines stall, headlights close in too fast, and the line between cautionary tale and real tragedy blurs in the rearview mirror.

Courtnee shares her unexpected path from ICU to hospice, unpacks the truth about morphine at the end of life, and tackles the cultural, spiritual, and ethical tensions nurses face around death. With candor and compassion, she reminds us that palliative care isn't about giving up.

Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor has been “hung in the Louvre” after activists from Everyone Hates Elon placed a framed Reuters photograph inside the Paris museum showing him slouched in the back of a car following his release from police custody. Beneath it: “He's Sweating Now – 2026,” a nod to his 2019 BBC Newsnight interview.Commentators say the stunt reflects a broader collapse of royal deference, with the Independent calling it proof we are in a “post-royal” era of irreverence.Back in Norfolk, two fire engines briefly responded to Wood Farm on the Sandringham Estate in what appears to have been a false alarm. Meanwhile, the BBC reports Andrew charged taxpayers for massage services and travel during his time as trade envoy — a detail some dismiss as trivial, others cite as emblematic.The constitutional stakes are rising. Australia has signalled support for removing Andrew from the line of succession, and new YouGov polling shows 82 percent of Britons agree. From museum walls in Paris to Commonwealth capitals, the fallout is widening — and the pressure on the monarchy is intensifying.Get episodes of Palace Intrigue by becommming a paid subscriber on Apple Podcasts.

What if the greatest stories on Earth aren't written in the sky but carved in stone beneath our feet? On this illuminating episode of Speaking of Travel, we shine a light on the extraordinary underground ecosystems that hold the living history of our planet.My guest is David Foster, President and CEO of the American Cave Conservation Association and steward of Hidden River Cave in Kentucky.Once considered one of the most polluted caves in the United States, Hidden River Cave is now a powerful symbol of restoration and hope. More than 40 years of scientific effort, community collaboration, and unwavering commitment transformed a damaged ecosystem into a conservation success story. Located within the watershed of Mammoth Cave International Biosphere Reserve, its recovery reminds us that protecting one place can ripple far beyond what we see.In this heartfelt conversation, David shares why the ACCA chose to go where the problem was, what it truly takes to repair decades of environmental harm, and how working in spaces shaped over millions of years changes the way we think about time, patience, and responsibility.“This is a happy cave today because people care. When you do good things for the world, karma rewards you. And we're an organization that really cares.”And maybe that's the heart of it. When we care deeply enough, even the unseen parts of our world can heal. Sometimes the greatest journeys aren't across oceans, but into the quiet places beneath our feet, reminding us that care, patience, and community can truly change the world. Because in the end, protecting what's hidden may be one of the most important journeys we ever take.
I watched the recent interview between Tucker Carlson and U.S. Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee with careful attention. I wanted to see whether it would be a fair exchange or something else.It was something else. Very disturbing. Beneath the calm tone and sweet, unassuming delivery, Tucker Carlson framed the interview to function as a hit job, not just on Israel but on Ambassador Huckabee as well.This was not an interview designed to uncover the truth for the benefit of Americans. It was engineered to implant doubt about Israel's moral legitimacy, about the justice of its war, about the wisdom of America's alliance with the Jewish state, and about Huckabee's alliance to the USA over Israel. The framing did the damage, long before any answer was given.Join Our Whatsapp Channel: https://chat.whatsapp.com/GkavRznXy731nxxRyptCMvFollow us on Twitter: https://x.com/AviAbelowJoin our Telegram Channel: https://t.me/aviabelowpulseFollow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/pulse_of_israel/?hl=enPulse of Israel on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/IsraelVideoNetworkVisit Our Website - https://pulseofisrael.com/Donate to Pulse of Israel: https://pulseofisrael.com/boost-this-video/
Rare earth elements (REEs), a group of 17 minerals, have become central to global industry and geopolitics. They power electric vehicle motors, wind turbines, semiconductors, consumer electronics and advanced defence systems. While moderately abundant, they are difficult and expensive to extract and process. China has built overwhelming dominance in this sector, controlling nearly 90% of global processing and about 70% of production, despite holding only around 30% of global reserves. In 2025, China imposed a series of export restrictions on these elements, disrupting supply chains worldwide. Since then, supply restrictions have eased since then. For India, the vulnerability was stark. Despite holding around 8% of global reserves, the country produces less than 1% of global output and imports to meet its requirements. In a bod to increase domestic capacity, the government launched the ₹34,300-crore National Critical Mineral Mission in January last year, and followed up in the Union Budget this year. In her Budget speech, Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman announced the government's plans to set up dedicated rare earth corridors in Odisha, Kerala, Andhra Pradesh and Tamil Nadu and manufacturing of Rare Earth Permanent Magnets. Can meaningfully reduce India's dependence on imports, strengthen strategic industries, and position the country as a serious player in global advanced-material supply chains?

Youtube Instagram BioAs soon as Eazie Boi's new Afrobeat single “Normally” comes on, it becomes nearly impossible to stop dancing long enough to think about its deeper meaning. That is exactly the point.Beneath the infectious melodies and pulsing rhythms lies a powerful message. Written and recorded during Nigeria's ongoing political and economic strain, where speaking out can be dangerous, “Normally” disguises social criticism within celebration. The song operates on two levels at once. It invites listeners to dance while quietly asking a deeper question: Is this normal?Normally, hard work should be enough. Normally, speaking up should not be a crime. Normally, life should not feel so heavy.Through this layered storytelling, Eazie Boi captures everyday frustration without naming names. His subtle approach is deliberate in a country where open political commentary carries real consequences. “That's why I hid the message inside the song,” he explains. “If you're not careful, you'll just dance to it. But if you listen, you'll understand what it's really about.”In this way, Eazie Boi follows in the tradition of the legendary Fela Kuti, blending social consciousness with irresistible rhythm. It is a balance that defines his artistry, delivering music that moves both the body and the mind.“Normally” was produced by Benzer Republic, Eazie Boi's longtime collaborator of two years. Without playing traditional instruments, Eazie Boi builds songs from instinct and imagination, vocalizing rhythms, textures, and arrangements until each track comes alive. The result is music that feels organic, urgent, and deeply personal.Born Raymond Isreal, Eazie Boi hails from Akwa Ibom State and is rapidly rising within Nigeria's Afrobeat and hip hop scene. Raised on a diverse range of sounds including reggae, highlife, Afrobeat, and conscious rap, he has cultivated a signature style that blends socially aware storytelling with contemporary African rhythms.“Normally” joins a growing catalog of impactful releases including “No Para,” “Oshey,” “Dispare,” and “Burning Bridge,” each reflecting his commitment to meaningful expression.The single is released via Omo Records Entertainment, led by CEO Frederick Omo, who praises Eazie Boi's ability to challenge listeners while commanding the dance floor.With “Normally,” Eazie Boi seeks to reach audiences beyond Nigeria. “Music is revolutionary,” he says. “It opens people's eyes. There is power in music, and there is power in telling the truth, even when you have to say it quietly.”Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/creator-to-creators-with-meosha-bean--4460322/support.
Why does it feel so good to point out what's wrong? In Mark 7, the Pharisees find fault while standing in front of a miracle. Jesus responds with unsettling clarity. The real problem is not out there but in here. Beneath our criticism lies a craving to be right, and beneath that, a heart that cannot fix itself. This week we will see why self-improvement cannot save us and how only the cross can wake us up and set us free from the exhausting cycle of accusation.

Today Alan and Mark step back from the noise to examine a market environment that feels subtly but meaningfully different. From AI euphoria giving way to harder questions, to gold's steady rise and a surprising divergence between US and emerging market inflation, the conversation centers on rotation, uncertainty, and shifting assumptions about safety. They explore whether Treasuries still anchor portfolios the way they once did, how fiscal pressures could reshape monetary policy, and why regime thinking matters for systematic investors. Beneath it all is a reminder that correlations change, narratives evolve, and adaptability remains the most durable edge in uncertain markets.-----50 YEARS OF TREND FOLLOWING BOOK AND BEHIND-THE-SCENES VIDEO FOR ACCREDITED INVESTORS - CLICK HERE-----Follow Niels on Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube or via the TTU website.IT's TRUE ? – most CIO's read 50+ books each year – get your FREE copy of the Ultimate Guide to the Best Investment Books ever written here.And you can get a free copy of my latest book “Ten Reasons to Add Trend Following to Your Portfolio” here.Learn more about the Trend Barometer here.Send your questions to info@toptradersunplugged.comAnd please share this episode with a like-minded friend and leave an honest Rating & Review on iTunes or Spotify so more people can discover the podcast.Follow Alan on Twitter.Follow Mark on LinkedIn.Episode TimeStamps:00:00 – Introduction & market check-in02:52 – February performance: CTAs, trend following & commodities04:53 – Peak bubble?

Welcome to the Parenting Well podcast with Parent Engagement Network! I am Dr. Shelly Mahon, your host and today's well source is Melissa Holland. Melissa Holland is a parenting coach, founder of Inner Wisdom Parenting, and a PEN Ambassador at SHMS who is passionate about helping parents raise emotionally healthy, resilient children, starting with themselves. Melissa works with parents of young children, particularly ages 5–10, helping them better understand what's really going on beneath behavior and how to respond with clarity, confidence, and connection. Through her coaching and workshops, she supports parents in tuning into both their child's inner world and their own, so discipline becomes less about control and more about growth, trust, and relationship. Grounded, compassionate, and deeply practical, Melissa's work empowers parents to slow down, listen differently, and parent from a place of intention rather than reactivity. Her approach reminds parents that they already have much of what they need. Sometimes they just need support accessing their inner wisdom. Melissa will be speaking at PEN's Stress & Anxiety Conference on Feb 28, 2026. Register Here In this podcast, we talk about: Tapping into your inner wisdom What is taking place developmentally for 5-10 year olds Neurodevelopment for this age group Frustration as the gap between our expectations and reality Key things that cause stress and anxiety during this phase of childhood Defiance as a symptom of excessive stress without the ability to understand and voice their feelings Difference between counter-willed and strong-willed Ways to recognize your child's triggers and modify your response Developing the capacity for self-compassion Resources Website App: Insight Timer Book: Hold On to Your Kids: Why Parents Need to Matter More Than Peers by Gordon Neufeld and Gabor Mate Book: Self-Compassion for Parents LinkedIn
What if integrity wasn't about discipline, willpower, or doing the "right" thing, but something that naturally arises from awareness? In this episode, Colette explores one of the most foundational yet often overlooked principles of Ayurveda: awareness. Beneath dosha food lists, routines, herbs, and lifestyle practices lies Ayurveda's deeper invitation, to notice what is happening in the body, mind, and nervous system, moment by moment, and to respond with honesty and care. This episode explores how awareness builds integrity from the inside out, how integrity is felt somatically in the body, and why this responsiveness is deeply physiological, influencing digestion, vitality, immunity, and nervous system regulation. In this episode, you'll learn: Why Ayurveda is fundamentally a system of awareness, not rules or discipline How integrity naturally emerges when awareness is present Understanding of prajnaparadha as forgetting what we already know The physiological effects of repeatedly overriding awareness on agni, ama, and ojas How integrity supports nervous system regulation and emotional resilience What integrity feels like in the body, beyond philosophy or ethics Why cleansing and daily self-care practices help restore awareness and connection Check out Colette's online services: Online Consultations https://www.elementshealingandwellbeing.com/consultations At-home Digestive Reset Cleanse https://www.elementshealingandwellbeing.com/digestive-reset-cleanse Online Daily Habits for Holistic Health Program https://www.elementshealingandwellbeing.com/daily-habits Reset-Restore-Renew Program https://www.elementshealingandwellbeing.com/reset-restore-renew Elements of Ayurveda Podcast Community https://www.elementshealingandwellbeing.com/community Have questions on Colette's online services?

Beneath the sun-baked streets of Palermo, Sicily, over a thousand mummified bodies line the walls of an underground cemetery where the dead were never meant to disappear—they were meant to be seen, visited, and remembered. Dressed in their finest clothes, pinned upright in stone alcoves, and arranged by gender, profession, and social class, the residents of the Capuchin Catacombs have been watching visitors for over four hundred years. And some visitors swear the dead are watching back. https://www.eeriecast.com/podcasts/destination-terror #CapuchinCatacombs #Palermo #Sicily #Mummies #Catacombs #Italy #HorrorPodcast #DestinationTerror #RosaliaLombardo #SleepingBeauty #MementoMori #DarkTourism #MacabreHistory EXPLORE MORE SPINE-CHILLING CONTENT: Freaky Folklore: https://www.eeriecast.com/podcasts/freaky-folklore Carman's Crypt (Original Horror): https://carmanscrypt.buzzsprout.com Deadly Intent (True Crime): https://carmancarrion.buzzsprout.com Destination Terror: https://www.eeriecast.com/podcasts/destination-terror SUPPORT THE SHOW: Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/c/CarmanCarrion Buy Me a Coffee: https://buymeacoffee.com/carmancarrion CONNECT WITH CARMAN: Website: https://www.carman-carrion.com/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@CarmanCarrion Twitter/X: https://x.com/CarmanCarrion Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/carmancarrion/ SUBSCRIBE & REVIEW: Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/0uiX155WEJnN7QVRfo3aQY iTunes: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/freaky-folklore/id1550361184 Your support helps bring you more terrifying tales!

Send a textIn today's episode, I'm chatting with Lindsay Marie Morris, a novelist and journalist based in Los Angeles whose work is deeply rooted in her Sicilian-American heritage. Lindsay's debut novel, The Last Letter from Sicily, was inspired by her grandmother's story and explores love, resilience, and long-held family secrets during World War II. Her second novel, Beneath the Sicilian Stars, returns to this era, following a family divided between California and Sicily as the war forces them to confront questions of loyalty, belonging, and sacrifice.Episode Highlights:The often-overlooked history of Sicilians and Italian Americans during World War II, including the impact of the Alien Enemy Act and the internment of Italian Americans, history rarely taught in American schools.How family stories are often passed down in fragments, and the role fiction can play in uncovering the fuller, more complicated truth.Exploring Sicilian culture through food, including why arancini are shaped differently depending on where you are on the island.A Sicily-focused book flight, plus additional reading recommendations on Italian and Italian-American history.How Lindsay connects with readers through her newsletter, sharing behind-the-scenes insights, upcoming events, and travel notes from the road.Connect with Lindsay:WebsiteFacebookInstagramShow NotesSome links are affiliate links, which are no extra cost to you but do help to support the show.Books and authors mentioned in the episode:Una Storia Segreta by Lawrence DiStasiLaura Ingalls Wilder booksNeopolitan Quartet by Elena FerranteEternal by Lisa ScottolineRenata Tebaldi: The Voice of an Angel by Carlamaria CasanovaBook FlightThe Peoples of Sicily by Louis Mendola & Jacqueline AlioThe Leopard by Giovanni Di LampedusaSicily on My Mind by Joseph Cione✨ Find Your Next Great Read!

With partisan politics taking center stage instead of athletic excellence at the Olympic Games, Jase, Al, and Zach wonder what happened to simple national pride. What was once a rare moment of unity now feels like another front in the culture wars. That frustration leads to a wild look back at the Robertsons' own dangerously reckless “Backyard Winter Olympics,” where frozen ponds, car hoods, and homemade skis somehow didn't end in tragedy. Beneath the cultural chaos runs a deeper question: if grace is real, why do we have to worry about doing what's good and right?

What if generosity is not a moment, but something cultivated over time? This week, we explore what it means to grow a heart that is ready, steady enough to give consistently and free enough to respond instantly. Beneath the surface, something is always being formed in us. The question is not if you will sow, but what has been cultivated when the moment comes.
This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC EPISODE!Known as the “Scenic City,” Chattanooga is celebrated for its mountain views, historic railways, and riverfront charm. Beneath that surface lies a quieter history shaped by industry, travel, and lives that never fully moved on.Along the Tennessee River, stories persist of lingering presences tied to the Delta Queen, where former passengers and crew are said to remain. At the city's grand Terminal Station, reports of a restless porter echo the building's past as a place of constant arrival and departure.Below street level, an overlooked network of underground tunnels tells another side of Chattanooga's story. Once used for movement and infrastructure, these sealed passageways are often linked to unexplained sounds, shadowy movement, and the sense that something still occupies the darkness.Chattanooga's hauntings are woven through its landscape — from riverbanks to rail lines to what lies beneath the streets — reminders that some histories don't fade, they linger.#TheGraveTalks #HauntedChattanooga #ScenicCity #ParanormalHistory #GhostCities #SouthernHauntings #TrueParanormal #HauntedTennessee Love real ghost stories?
