Perfectionism in adolescence can be a heavy, even isolating, burden—shaped by social media, identity pressures, and the overwhelming number of choices youth face. Amid these challenges the Doctrine and Covenants offers a powerful reminder: “Remember that the worth of souls is great in the sight of God” (18:10). This eternal truth stands out in contrast to the feeling standards of the world. In this episode Professor Justin Dyer explains how such expectations contribute to rising perfectionism among our youth. Drawing from BYU's Foundations data, he offers advice on how parents, teachers, and leaders can help youth navigate these pressures and find peace in eternal truths. By helping young people anchor their self-worth in truth, we can guide them away from toxic perfectionism and toward a life of purpose, peace, and resilience.   Publications: “Perfectionism Across Adolescence,” BYU Studies Quarterly, 63.4 (2024) “The Family Proclamation: The Secular and Spiritual Context,” co-authored with Michael A.

How should Christians react to political violence? In this deeply reflective episode, Mike Erre and Tim Stafford tackle hard questions about faith, politics, and the role of the church in society. With a week marked by tragedy, including the assassination of Charlie Kirk and a series of shootings, the hosts explore what a kingdom response looks like in these turbulent times.  From condemning all acts of violence equally to affirming the dignity of every human being, they emphasize the need for a cruciformity—a life shaped by the values and teachings of Jesus. They discuss navigating cultural challenges with wisdom, rejecting the polarizing rage economy, and fostering a community rooted in justice, love, and mutual accountability. How can the church rise above partisan responses and embody the upside-down kingdom of God? What does it mean to lament, honor complex legacies, and act with hope amidst despair?  This conversation challenges listeners to rethink their approach to cultural issues, faith, and the call to stand as exiles and strangers in today's society.

In this episode Andrea revisits her 2019 conversation with Dr. Daniel J. Siegel to explore Mindsight — his science-based approach to understanding the mind, integrating the brain, and cultivating empathy. Dr. Siegel explains the difference between mind and brain, the benefits of the Wheel of Awareness meditation, and how Mindsight can change brain structure and improve health. Watch full interview here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d7pnea2Vbzc Practical tips include daily Mindsight practice, naming emotions to build self-awareness, and simple emotional check-ins to make learning and relationships more meaningful. This week, in our review of EP 28 with Daniel J. Siegel, MD  and his book Mindsight, we learned: ✔ The Difference Between the Mind and the Brain. ✔  The Benefits of The Wheel of Awareness Meditation. ✔ How to Understand and Apply Mindsight that gives us insight into ourselves, and empathy for others. ✔ How Mindsight can change brain structure and improve health. ✔ In order to make teaching and learning more meaningful, what we are teaching must have an element of emotion. Welcome back to SEASON 14 of The Neuroscience Meets Social and Emotional Learning Podcast, where we connect the science-based evidence behind social and emotional learning and emotional intelligence training for improved well-being, achievement, productivity and results—using what I saw as the missing link (since we weren't taught this when we were growing up in school), the application of practical neuroscience. I'm Andrea Samadi, and seven years ago, launched this podcast with a question I had never truly asked myself before: (and that is) If productivity and results matter to us—and they do now more than ever—how exactly are we using our brain to make them happen? Most of us were never taught how to apply neuroscience to improve productivity, results, or well-being. About a decade ago, I became fascinated by the mind-brain-results connection—and how science can be applied to our everyday lives. That's why I've made it my mission to bring you the world's top experts—so together, we can explore the intersection of science and social-emotional learning. We'll break down complex ideas and turn them into practical strategies we can use every day for predictable, science-backed results. Episode 371: For today's Episode 371, we continue our journey into the mind with the next interview review. Just a reminder-this review series began back with Episode 366[i], where in Part 3 we discovered an important lesson: if we don't like our results—or what we see on the outside—we need to shift our mindset and look within. True change always begins on the inside.   EP 369[ii] we learned how to Rewire our Brain with Dr. Dawson Church and his Bliss Brain Meditations, and then last week, EP 370[iii] with John Medina's Brain Rules, we reviewed how important this understanding of neuroscience is, especially connected to education, teaching and learning. Which brings us to today's review, EP 371, where we revisit a very early episode with clinical professor of psychiatry from UCLA's School of Medicine, Dr. Daniel J Siegel. He's from EP 28[iv], that was recorded back in November of 2019. As we take this journey deeper into the mind, Dr. Dan Siegel offers the perfect place to begin, with his ability to bridge cutting-edge neuroscience and practical wisdom. Dr. Dan Siegel, is well known for his books, trainings and courses that bridge cutting edge neuroscience with mindfulness and therapy. A reminder of his background-he's a clinical professor of psychiatry at the UCLA School of Medicine and executive director of the Mindsight Institute[v] where you can find his courses, workshops, books and tools to help anyone understand and apply what can sometimes be complicated scientific concepts and make them easy to understand and applicable to our daily lives. At the end of the interview, I let Dr. Siegel know that I had been practicing his Wheel of Awareness Meditation, and ended up reviewing what I learned on EP 60[vi] where we explored the Science Behind a Meditation Practice. You can watch the whole interview by clicking on the link in the resource section in the show notes, and learn all about Dr. Siegel's work that encompasses schools, with resiliency, brain science and helping our next generation to understand how to apply these important strategies whether it's in our classrooms, or workplaces of the future. Today we will continue to explore within, sharpen our mindset, and learn about what Dr. Siegel calls Mindsight. VIDEO 1 Click Here to Watch In Clip 1, Dr. Siegel unpacks the concept of Mindsight and helps clarify the difference between the mind and the brain, when I asked him to explain this distinction. I knew this wasn't an easy question—as I had already listened to him answer it many times over the years, and still wasn't sure I fully grasped it. In fact, I even tried to tackle it myself back in Episode 23[vii], Understanding Your Brain and Mind for Increased Results. But revisiting this topic now, I can see this concept requires a much deeper reflection. So, I asked Dr. Siegel if we could look at his definition of the mind—one he has been studying for years and that many in his scientific and educational circles agree on. He describes the mind as “an embodied and relational process—since it's in the body and it's in our relationships with one another—that regulates the flow of energy and information.” I wanted to hear him expand on this again, especially around why relationships are so critical for our health, our well-being, and for creating what he calls an integrated brain—which he equates with a healthy brain. His answer helped me to understand the importance of implementing Mindsight into our daily life. He said: “The word mind doesn't actually have a formal definition—not in education, psychotherapy, or even in fields like psychology that study it directly. But if we look closely, the mind includes your subjective experience—that inner feeling of being alive. It also includes consciousness—the ability to know that you're having that subjective experience. And beyond that, there's information processing—which doesn't always require consciousness and is essentially what school focuses on: learning to process information. When you understand the mind as a self-organizing process—a complex system that regulates its own becoming—you begin to see the power of teaching about the mind itself. This is what we call Mindsight. And if we could bring this understanding into education, the outcomes for students would be profoundly different.” Key Tip 1 with Dr. Dan Siegel Understanding and Applying Mindsight which is “the way we focus our attention on the internal world. It's how we bring consciousness to our own thoughts and feelings, and then next,  how we attune to the inner world of someone else. Mindsight gives us insight into ourselves, and empathy for others.”

According to a 2016 WHO study, 25% of the global population is likely to develop a mental disorder during their lifetime. But of course there are certain habits that we can adopt to diminish that risk, or treat the situation. These include getting counselling, regular physical activity and a proper sleep routine. Another beneficial habit is journaling, or "therapeutic writing”, as it's also known. A Cambridge University study published in 2018 found that expressive writing about traumatic events increased physical and psychological well-being. What are the benefits? How can I get started?

Episode 246How 2 Learn From The Years Sensers! So turning 40 is a landmark moment if you value that, but as a topic I wanted to shed light on some of the things I've learned throughout that time and perhaps it benefits you. I find that the years seem to have gone by pretty fast for me getting to this point. I'm grateful for everyone's role past and present who's been along for some of the moments. Being a content creator, sometimes your perspective may trigger someone, it may be misinterpreted, or try to hack the narrative that you share. What I find to be important and mindful is that you're responsible for what you say now how someone interpreted it. It has nothing to do with you especially when you're focus on the path of healing. Many will project their own thoughts and feelings onto you, but stand firm in your mindset to share your perspective. I want to share how I manage those moments when being misunderstood by another human.If you were born human, more than likely you've experienced some form of trauma in life. It may not have been referred to as trauma at the time, but as we get more educated on the concept of mental health and trauma's effects on the brain I believe we can recognize it, embrace the emotions which come about from it and work towards learning to heal from it the best that we can. I look back at what I perceive that I went through and looking at it in a positive light just as much as the negative emotion as to how it made me more aware of my surroundings. May God and His Universe remove any negative energy you may have stored from reading this.

Hey beautiful human! You've probably asked yourself at some point: Should I be doing Pilates… or should I lift weights? And if you've ever felt stuck trying to choose between the two, this episode is for you. Let me be clear, Pilates can absolutely support your goals. It's amazing for posture, mobility, and core strength. But if you're trying to build muscle, boost your metabolism, or reshape your body? Resistance training is what truly moves the needle. In this episode, I'm breaking down the real differences between Pilates and lifting, so you can stop second-guessing your workouts and start seeing results. We're getting into: What Pilates does (and doesn't do) for your metabolism and strength Why resistance training creates longer-lasting changes in your body The truth about “bulking,” “toning,” and the biggest myths about lifting How to combine Pilates and strength training for a balanced routine Where to start if lifting feels confusing, overwhelming, or out of reach If you've been trying to make progress with Pilates alone and feel like something's missing, this episode will give you clarity, confidence, and a roadmap for what to do next.

Learn how to take your homegrown harvest to the next level with the revolutionary Twister Cure Puck. This automated curing device uses smart sensors to monitor and control humidity, eliminating guesswork and ensuring a perfect cure every time. Join host Kyle Kushman and Twister CEO Jay Evans as they demonstrate how cutting-edge post-harvest technology can preserve maximum flavor and aroma in your flower. How the Cure Puck stabilizes temperature and humidity swings, protecting your harvest from mold or overdrying.Ways the device automatically “burps” out excess CO₂ and controls VPD to optimize curing conditions.Tips on when to move your buds from drying to curing, and how to gauge the ideal moisture content (no more brittle or overly wet flower).The benefits of a hands-free curing process – set it and forget it, with data tracking and alerts via the Cure Puck app.Why proper curing is just as important as growing: improve taste, aroma, and shelf life of your flower with the right technique and tools.    Cure Puck – a smart, automated curing device by Twister Technologies – controls humidity and “burps” out gases (like CO₂) to ensure a perfect cure for your harvest.It uses precise sensors and vapor pressure deficit (VPD) control to maintain ideal conditions. The device can even pull in moisture from the environment when it's too dry, keeping your flower at the optimal water activity (~0.58) for curing.Developed through years of R&D (inspired by manual curing techniques), the Cure Puck automates the entire curing process and eliminates guesswork. Growers get a hands-free, “set it and forget it” experience without needing to open jars or manually burp containers daily.The Cure Puck works with containers from small mason jars up to 30–50 gallon drums, making it useful for home growers as well as commercial producers. It's a robust post-harvest tool built with highly accurate sensors, a connected app/web portal, and data logging for remote monitoring.Drying vs. Curing: Proper drying is still essential before using the device. You'll learn how to judge when your flowers are ready to cure (e.g. crispy leaves, near-snapping stems, ~60–63% internal humidity). The Cure Puck then fine-tunes the final moisture over 10–14+ days, preserving flavor and aroma while preventing mold or “off” smells.Using the Cure Puck leads to better tasting, smoother, longer-lasting flower. It helps bind remaining moisture into the buds slowly, which enhances flavor, aroma, and overall quality (comparable to top-shelf results). No more worrying about mold or an overly dry end product due to environmental swings.Benefits & Insights: The device provides peace of mind and consistency. You can monitor your cure via the app from anywhere (it will even send alerts if conditions drift). This not only protects your homegrown harvest but also teaches you about your drying/curing process – many growers realize where their drying could improve by seeing the Cure Puck's data.Twister stands by the Cure Puck's effectiveness with a 60-day trial period (money-back guarantee). It's an investment in quality that serious growers (recreational or medicinal) appreciate after spending months cultivating their plants. As the saying goes, you should put as much care into drying and curing as you did into growing – and this device makes that much easier.

As students and teachers are settling into a new school year, Minnesota Now is looking at how artificial intelligence is changing teaching, learning and wellbeing in the classroom. We have talked with a consultant working on AI policy at the district level and a high school English teacher. Next, we hear from a student. High school seniors in this year's graduating class were freshmen when Chat GPT launched in November 2022. Every year since then, AI chatbots have become more prevalent. Elianah Dollar-Simmons is a high school senior who has done a lot of work with AI, but not in the way you might assume. She built AI models as part of summer programs at MIT and Carnegie Melon University. Dollar-Simmons joins MPR News host Nina Moini from Tartan High School in Oakdale, a suburb east of St. Paul.

Raising a Happy and Thriving Only Child In this episode of the "Helping Families Be Happy" podcast, host Christopher Robbins and guest Rebecca Greene, a mental health therapist, delve into the complexities of raising an only child. Rebecca shares insights from her book "One and Done: The Guide to Raising a Happy and Thriving Only Child," addressing common concerns such as loneliness, social skills, and the pressures on an only child. The discussion covers the importance of socialization, balancing extracurricular activities, and the significance of finding solitude over loneliness. The conversation also touches on the positive perspectives of adult only children, emphasizing that a single-child family can indeed thrive. Episode Highlights 00:00:10: Introduction to the podcast and host Christopher Robbins, discussion on family and relationships. 00:01:12: Guest introduction, Rebecca Greene, her background, books, and focus on one-child families. 00:02:19: Host's perspective on being an only child and having nine children; introduction to common concerns of raising an only child. 00:02:50: Discussion on concerns like loneliness, selfishness, social skills, and future caregiving responsibilities of an only child. 00:04:15: In-depth discussion on the myth of the "lonely only" and the findings that only children are not lonelier than those with siblings. 00:05:54: Suggestions for parents on how to reduce loneliness via early socialization and engaging in extracurricular activities. 00:07:17: Benefits of team sports and activities as tools for building family-like relationships outside of school for only children. 00:08:31: Exploring the difference between solitude and loneliness; red flags indicating loneliness in only children. 00:11:18: Tips on avoiding overscheduling and ensuring a balance between structured activities and free play. 00:13:57: Importance of mental respite and moments of creativity found in unstructured time. 00:14:39: decision factors for having one child and insight into therapy for processing this decision. 00:16:18: Positive feedback from adult only children on their childhood experiences and benefits. 00:17:51: Finding happiness in any family structure and information on where to find Rebecca Greene's work. Key Takeaways The stereotype of the "lonely only" is largely unfounded, with research indicating no significant difference in loneliness between only children and those with siblings. Early socialization and participation in extracurricular activities can significantly benefit an only child, reducing feelings of loneliness and improving social skills. A balance between structured activities and free play is crucial for children's development, avoiding potential overscheduling and allowing for creativity. Parents of only children should be attentive to signs of loneliness and should actively create opportunities for social engagement. Many adult only children reflect positively on their childhood experiences, enjoying the benefits of being the sole focus of their parents' attention.

***JOIN THE NEXT MASTER YOUR FASTING CHALLENGE THAT STARTS October 1st, 2025!*** We'll GUIDE you on how to FAST to LOSE FAT for good, and use ‘fast cycling' to achieve uncommon results! REGISTER HERE! Click the link for DATES, DETAILS, and FAQs! This episode examines a comprehensive narrative review analyzing fasting's profound effects on metabolic hormones and functions across 13 different studies and fasting protocols. Dr. Scott and Tommy reveal a game-changing mental approach: shift from counting down your fasting timer to counting up the powerful benefits accumulating in your body during each fast. The research demonstrates remarkable results from consistent intermittent fasting practices - 24-hour fasts performed three times weekly in women produced increased antioxidant activity, weight reduction, improved morning glucose levels, better A1C readings, and significant improvements in blood pressure, cholesterol, and triglycerides. Learn how 16:8 time-restricted eating for 12 weeks dramatically enhanced multiple metabolic markers in patients with metabolic syndrome, while understanding the crucial differences between fasting effects in lean individuals versus those with excess weight. The hosts clarify testosterone concerns, explaining why lean men may see temporary decreases with extended fasting protocols (typically due to inadvertent under-eating) while overweight men experience increases through improved testicular function and reduced estrogen conversion. Discover practical strategies for building sustainable fasting habits through progressive skill development rather than perfectionist approaches, including proper electrolyte management, leveraging gut microbiome improvements, and strategic meal planning for optimal fast-breaking. This episode reframes fasting as a learnable skill requiring practice and adaptation, providing specific guidance for developing your personal fasting toolkit based on your health status, body composition, and long-term metabolic optimization goals. ⁠⁠Take the NEW FASTING PERSONA QUIZ! - The Key to Unlocking Sustainable Weight Loss With Fasting!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Resources and Downloads: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠SIGN UP FOR THE DROP OF THE ULTIMATE GUIDE TO BLOOD SUGAR CONTROL⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠GRAB THE OPTIMAL RANGES FOR LAB WORK HERE! - NEW RESOURCE! ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠FREE RESOURCE - DOWNLOAD THE NEW BLUEPRINT TO FASTING FOR FAT LOSS!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠SLEEP GUIDE DIRECT DOWNLOAD⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠DOWNLOAD THE FASTING TRANSFORMATION JOURNAL HERE!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Partner Links: Get your⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ FREE BOX OF LMNT⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ hydration support for the perfect electrolyte balance for your fasting lifestyle with your first purchase⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ here!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Get ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠25% off a Keto-Mojo⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ blood glucose and ketone monitor (discount shown at checkout)! ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Click here!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Our Community: Let's continue the conversation.

Can you really get the life-extending, disease-preventing benefits of fasting… without actually fasting? That's the question I dive into today with Dr. Chris Rhodes, a nutritional biochemist who spent years mapping what happens in the body during prolonged fasts. We explore the powerful cellular changes that fasting triggers, from autophagy and DNA repair to inflammation reduction and longevity - and how a new supplement may mimic those same benefits without the hunger, muscle loss, or social challenges that come with extended fasting. We get into the surprising ways fasting impacts cancer risk, thyroid health, weight loss, and even aging itself. You'll hear about the groundbreaking research behind Mimio, why certain molecules only appear in the body after 36+ hours of fasting, and how scientists combined them into a formula shown to extend lifespan by nearly double in lab studies. If you've ever struggled to stick with fasting protocols, worried about protein loss, or wondered whether fasting is even safe for women in perimenopause and menopause, this conversation will open your eyes to a whole new possibility. Tune in! You may never look at fasting (or longevity) the same way again.
