St. Hildegard of Bingen (1098-1179) was a visionary, teacher, Abbess, composer, theologian, painter, and the first woman in history to be given papal approval to preach in public. Four centuries before the emergence of the “Renaissance Man,” there was Hildegard of Bingen. Usually known mostly for her music (and rightfully so) there is so much more to this medieval mystic.

Die Bandmitglieder von Spark haben für ihr neues Album einen gigantischen Trip durch die Musikgeschichte hingelegt: "Visions of Venus" - 1000 Jahre weibliche Musikgeschichte. Für das neue Album, das so heißt, haben sie Stücke von Hildegard von Bingen, Björk, Billie Holiday, Clara Schumann, Amy Beach, Tori Amos aufgenommen - alles von Mittelalter bis Modern. BR-KLASSIK-Moderatorin Uta Sailer hat den Blockflötisten Daniel Koschitzki, den Gründer von Spark, zum Gespräch getroffen.

Der Sommer kommt und mit ihm zieht es viele Menschen wieder ans Wasser. Dabei bietet sich vor allem der Rhein als Wassersport-Vergnügungsort an. Doch an einem Abschnitt des Rheins zwischen Ingelheim und Bingen könnte bald Schluss damit sein. Noch dürfen die Wassersportler zwischen den Rheinkilometern 520 und 525 ihrer Leidenschaft nachgehen. Doch schon seit geraumer Zeit wird über ein Fahrverbot diskutiert. Denn eigentlich ist dieser Abschnitt schon seit über 50 Jahren ein Naturschutzgebiet. In dieser Rheingehört-Folge spricht Volontär Yannik Radloff mit Johannes Lahr, Reporter aus der Redaktion Ingelheim, über den Rhein als Wassersport-Paradies, wie Mensch und Natur dort in Einklang leben können und ob tatsächlich ein Fahrverbot auf der betroffenen Flussstrecke durchgesetzt wird.

Send us a textNow for something completely different from tracing the development of the papacy from bishop of Rome to the papal monarchy--but, don't worry, I will be completing that series soon.  In this episode, I chat with author Garry J. Shaw about his fascinating new book from Yale University Press, Cryptic: From Voynich to the Angel Diaries, the Story of the World's Mysterious Manuscripts. The book tells the stories behind nine puzzling medieval and early Modern European texts. In our interview Garry talks about the three that fall within the chronological confines of the Middle Ages. We begin with the "unknown language" and "unknown script" concocted by the remarkable twelfth-century German abbess, mystic, polymath, and composer of sacred music, Hildegard of Bingen.  We then turn to another strange early fifteenth-century manuscript, the Bellicorum instrumentorum liber, Book of the Instruments of War, by Giovanni Fontana, whom Garry Shaw characterizes as "a true pre-Renaissance man."  Fontana was entranced with the "natural magic of mechanical creations" and the "practical knowledge gained from experiments and observation of nature." But this did nothing to lessen his belief in supernatural forces operating in the world. He was also "a world class prankster" with a fascination for ciphers. All these came together in the Bellicorum instrumentorum liber, an enciphered illustrated catalogue of imagined machines, ranging from rocket-powered chairs and fanciful siege engines to mechanical witches. We conclude with perhaps the most famous of all mysterious manuscripts, the early fifteenth-century Voynich codex, whose content has resisted decipherment by professional code-breakers and cryptographers.  (Spoiler: we won't be able to tell you what the Voynich manuscript actually says, but Dr. Shaw has a good idea what the manuscript is, why it was produced, and why no one has been able to decipher it.  If you disagree with him, just go online to Yale University library's posting of Voynich and have your own go at it!)I hope you will join us.Cryptic: From Voynich to the Angel Diaries, the Story of the World's Mysterious Manuscripts by Garry J.

At the heart of Dylan Martinez's work lies the striking H2O/SiO2 series, inspired by the artistic tradition of Trompe L'œil—the technique that deceives the eye into perceiving three-dimensional objects on a flat surface. Each sculpture is meticulously hot-sculpted and hand-molded by Martinez, capturing the fluid movement of rising bubbles and the delicate form of what appears, at first glance, to be bags of water. These pieces transcend objecthood; they are immersive experiences that invite stillness, inspection, and recalibration of the senses. Martinez reflects, “Our vision has the greatest effect on our understanding of the world. Through my artwork, I create scenarios where viewers must question their ability to navigate between reality and illusion.” Blending classical craftsmanship with contemporary conceptual inquiry, Martinez uses glass as both material and metaphor. His work explores how perception constructs truth—how desire and expectation often override what is actually seen. In his latest series, Martinez introduces vibrant color for the first time in years, signaling a shift influenced by pop art. Sculpted forms inspired by Pac-Man ghosts and hyperrealistic water balloons appear light, buoyant, and playful, yet reveal an intense precision beneath their surface charm. Also central to this new body of work is a group of hard-edged, geometric sculptures rooted in optical art. These pieces employ sharp lines, layered transparency, and refraction to produce illusions of shifting depth, bending geometry, and visual vibration. As viewers move around them, the forms seem to flicker, realign, or dissolve—forcing perception into motion. These optical works expand Martinez's inquiry into the unstable boundary between what is there and what is seen. Born in Stillwater, Minnesota, Martinez earned his degree in science from the University of Wisconsin–River Falls in 2008. It was during his junior year, upon visiting the university's glassblowing studio, that he discovered a profound connection to glass—drawn to how the material responded to physical forces he had studied in physics, chemistry, and geology. He recalls, “I tried it out, and it really resonated with me—in the way you move the material and how it reacts to heat and physical forces.” He later earned his MFA from Ball State University in 2017. Martinez honed his craft through an apprenticeship with Sam Stang at Augusta Glass Studio (2010–2012), evolving from functional glassware and vases into sculptural and installation-based work. He currently lives and works in his studio in Bingen, Washington. Martinez's work has earned global acclaim, appearing in public and private collections worldwide. International publications such as Elle Decoration (UK, NL, Germany), American Craft Magazine, Interior Design Magazine, and Aesthetica have celebrated his contributions to contemporary glass. His accolades include the Enrico Bersellini Award (Miano Vetro, Milan, 2018), the Stanislav Libensky Award (Prague, 2017), full scholarships to Pilchuck Glass School and Pittsburgh Glass Center (2017), and numerous Best in Show and Juror Awards. In 2021, he received Best in Show, OP ART/Glass, from the Imagine Museum in St. Petersburg, FL. In 2025, Martinez's work will be featured in More Than Meets the Eye at Belger Arts, Kansas City, MO (June 6 – September 6), as well as in a solo exhibition titled, Glass Reimagined, at Square One Gallery, St. Louis, MO (June 6 – August 1). Through a fusion of light, form, and material truth, Martinez's sculptures prompt a quiet confrontation with the limits of perception. As he states of his waterbag series, “The trapped movement of rising bubbles and the gesture of the forms convince the eye that the sculptures are exactly as they appear. What fascinates me is how our desires often override our true perception, leading us to believe what we see as the absolute truth.”

Det är vår och det har firats födelsedagar. Då är det onödigt att inte ta en stund och filosofera över personligheter. Barnens och ens egen. Vad gör föräldraskapet med ens personlighet? Och hur förankrar man den när barnen är så stora att de klarar sig själva? Är det i trädgården det sker? Och nog är det är samma sak med ett samhälle som med den enskilda personen, det behöver jorda sig och bygga rötter. Simone Weil, Åsa Wilke, Hildegard av Bingen, Mimmi Staaf och Hanna Hofman-Bang är några av dom som dyker upp mellan klosterträdgårdar, engelska parker och skärgårdskobbar. Välkommen att lyssna!

La magnificencia de los paisajes naturales y culturales, así como su influencia en la creación artística, musical y literaria, justificaron la inclusión del Rin Romántico en la lista de Patrimonio Mundial de la Unesco. Esta marca turística alude al tramo de 65 kilómetros del Valle Superior del Medio Rin comprendido entre las ciudades renanas de Bingen y Coblenza. La pizarra, que otorga un carácter inconfundible a los tejados de la región, es la roca dominante en este macizo montañoso por el que serpentea el más importante de los ríos germanos. Ulrike Bohnet, directora de la Oficina Nacional Alemana de Turismo, ejerce de anfitriona en este viaje fluvial que ampliamos hasta las poblaciones de Rüdesheim y Andernach. En Coblenza nos espera la guía local Soraya Jaramillo; también el abogado Alexander Birkhahn, que nos muestra el gran castillo de Ehrenbreitstein. Las fortalezas –muchas medievales– son parte del encanto de esta travesía, en la que también nos acompaña la periodista María Jesús Tomé, el productor audiovisual Diego Calle y Natalia Niño, ingeniera residente en Oberwesel. A lo largo de la ruta, que podemos hacer en barco, ferrocarril, automóvil o bicicleta, no dejan de aflorar leyendas como la de Lorelei y versos de románticos alemanes de la talla de Friedrich Hölderlin o Heinrich Heine.Escuchar audio

Dive into a unique session where two towering figures from history, Hildegard of Bingen and Galileo, bridge the gap between science and spirit. Meet Hildegard, the mystic, healer, and visionary who saw the divine as living light and worked with plants, stars, and inner ailments of the soul, corresponding with emperors and writing to kings and popes. Meet Galileo, the empirical observer who aimed his eyes at what couldn't be questioned, discovered moons dancing around Jupiter, and was placed under arrest for speaking the truth. Though separated by centuries, these two polymaths represent two eyes – one mystical, one empirical – gazing up and seeking the same truth. Their connection, though not in life, is in their shared pursuit, forming a bridge between religion and science. Explore the profound concepts channeled through their perspectives: from the nature of gravity – seen not just as a physical force but as love dressed in the laws of physics, a liquid we swim in, a principle of attraction and communion that calls souls into incarnation, planets into orbit, and hearts to one another. Discover the idea that the intense gravity on Earth might be a "glitch," potentially influenced by the collective human belief in separation, and how collective human consciousness itself may bend the fabric of reality. This episode delves into the challenges Hildegard and Galileo faced for daring to look deeply and speak their truth, seeing how the mystic's path of obedience to the inner light and the scientist's drive to be a rebel both served as the "friction needed to spark the next evolution in human vision". Ultimately, the message is a powerful call to recognize the bridge between the seen and unseen, the miserable and the miraculous. Let your wonder be active, dare to say what you see, and walk boldly with light. To book a spirit guide session with Christy, click below: Christy Levy

Today, we're talking to our good friend Rob Corzine, vice president of Academic Programs at the St. Paul Center, about conclaves past and present, and how despite humanity's best efforts, the Holy Spirit proves again and again that he is in charge. And our apologies that this episode is dropping later than promised. We decided we wanted to wait until after Pope Francis funeral to drop an episode that was so heavy on conclave talk!Show Notes:Good Pope, Bad Pope: Their Lives, Our Lessons by Mike AquilinaDiscovering the Doctors and Hildegard of Bingen by Emily Stimpson Chapman“I would not say so, in the sense that the Holy Spirit picks out the Pope. . . . I would say that the Spirit does not exactly take control of the affair, but rather like a good educator, as it were, leaves us much space, much freedom, without entirely abandoning us. Thus the Spirit's role should be understood in a much more elastic sense, not that he dictates the candidate for whom one must vote. Probably the only assurance he offers is that the thing cannot be totally ruined. . . . There are too many contrary instances of popes the Holy Spirit obviously would not have picked!” Pope Benedict XVIA Jubilee ChristmasThe Chapman family us heading to Rome on December 26 to spend 10 days soaking in the beauty of Rome at Christmas, celebrating the end of the Jubilee Year, and ringing in the New Year with our new Holy Father (!). We would love to have you join us. The pilgrimage is filling up fast, but we still have room for a couple more families (or quite a few singles or several couples). There are so many graces to be had on pilgrimage—graces of friendship, of learning, of beauty, and worshipping at the very heart of the Church. These pilgrimages are never easy to embark on.

Als sie Anfang des 12. Jh. ein kleines Mädchen in ein Kloster schicken, ahnen die Eltern nicht, dass diese Entscheidung eine der einflussreichsten Persönlichkeiten des Mittelalters hervorbringen wird. Dabei beginnt alles mit ihren Visionen: Hildegard ist sich sicher, dass sie die Stimme Gottes vernimmt. Darauf aufbauend verschreibt sie sich dem Klosterleben, doch schon bald wächst sie über sich und ihr Umfeld hinaus. Sie wird Asketin, Nonne, Magistra, Äbtissin, Heilerin, Autorin - eine Universalgelehrte. Sie wird auf Könige, Päpste und Kaiser treffen und den mächtigsten Männern ihrer Zeit die Stirn bieten. Hildegard von Bingen ist ihrer Zeit weit voraus - und wird zu einer der faszinierendsten Stimmen des Mittelalters………Hier geht es zum neuen Quiz-Podcast.……Jetzt His2Go unterstützen für tolle Vorteile - über Steady!Klick hier und werde His2Go Hero oder His2Go Legend.......FOLGEN-MUSIK:Hier geht es zu der Aufnahme des Stückes O frondens aus Hildegards Ordo VirtutemHier geht es zu Petter Dyndahls Instrumental-Aufnahme von Hildegards Caritas abundat in omnia, u. a. mit einem nachgebauten Psalterium!

On this week's Bonus Episode, Eleanor leads us through the libraries of early medical history to guide us through Leech Books and early medical texts! We start off talking about the book generally thought to be the oldest 'English' medical text, Bald's Leech Book, discussing how the Medieval mind perceived of ailments - namely as issues interlinked with spiritual and supernatural problems, not just physical ones.We then leap back to discuss Ancient Chinese medicine, its roots in the work of the mythical 'Yellow Emperor,' and how Classical writers like Hippocrates and Galen developed and refined concepts like Humorism. From the works of fundamentally important Medieval writers such as Ibn Sina and Hildegard of Bingen to the advent of Protestant medicine, as practiced by the likes of Andreas Vesalius and William Harvey, it's a slightly squishy and bizarre journey through mankind's understanding of the body, from ancient times to today. Yet, considering that some of the remedies proposed by these writers are still in use today, it's a bit simplistic to suggest that they were just 'wrong' about medicine and how the body worked.So, let's raise our scalpels and peel back the layers of what they got right and wrong and why, and open up questions about what modern physicians might perhaps benefit from learning if they look back towards the half-forgotten past...Three Ravens is an English Myth and Folklore podcast hosted by award-winning writers Martin Vaux and Eleanor Conlon.Released on Mondays, each weekly episode focuses on one of England's 39 historic counties, exploring the history, folklore and traditions of the area, from ghosts and mermaids to mythical monsters, half-forgotten heroes, bloody legends, and much, much more. Then, and most importantly, the pair take turns to tell a new version of an ancient story from that county - all before discussing what that tale might mean, where it might have come from, and the truths it reveals about England's hidden past...Bonus Episodes are released on Thursdays plus Local Legends episodes on Saturdays - interviews with acclaimed authors, folklorists, podcasters and historians with unique perspectives on that week's county.With a range of exclusive content on Patreon, too, including audio ghost tours, the Three Ravens Newsletter, and monthly Three Ravens Film Club episodes about folk horror films from across the decades, why not join us around the campfire and listen in?Learn more at www.threeravenspodcast.com, join our Patreon at www.patreon.com/threeravenspodcast, and find links to our social media channels here: https://linktr.ee/threeravenspodcast Get bonus content on Patreon Hosted on Acast.

Over a thousand years ago, a wealthy family in Germany gave birth to their tenth child, a daughter.  They gave their child to the church, as was the custom in those days. She grew to become the leader of her monastic community.  More than that, she became one of the leading thinkers of her era. She composed music, wrote about medicine and theology, revolutionized brewing, and corresponded with kings and emperors.

  “You set up a paint set in the kitchen and you're talking to me” What happens when we view Taylor Swift's music through the lens of female artists? In this week's Show & Tell episode, we explore the work of three iconic women in art—Mary Cassatt, Remedios Varo, and Hildegard von Bingen—and connect their paintings to Taylor Swift's songs. From the intimacy of motherhood to the surreal exhaustion of creating something greater than yourself, to the struggle of questioning authority, we discuss how these themes appear in both art and Taylor's songwriting.

Mystics and prophets have reported receiving visions from the Divine for centuries—”Thus saith the Lord…”—Hildegard of Bingen, Teresa of Avila, Ignatius of Loyola, Catherine of Siena, or Julian of Norwich. The list goes on.But what would you think if you met a seer of visions in the present day? Maybe you have.What about a prophet whose visions came like a movie screen unfurled before him, the images grotesque and vivid, all in the unsuspecting backwoods setting of Lookout Mountain, deep in the south of Tennessee.Would you believe it? Would you believe him? The beauty of fiction allows the reader to join the author in asking: What if?That's exactly what Jamie Quatro has allowed us to do in her newest work of literary fiction, Two-Step Devil.What if an earnest and wildly misunderstood Christian is left alone on Lookout Mountain? What if the receiver of visions makes art that reaches a girl who's stuck in the darkest grip of a fraught world? What if the Devil really did sit in the corner of the kitchen, wearing a cowboy hat, and what if he got to tell his own side of the Biblical story?On today's episode novelist Jamie Quatro joins Macie Bridge to share about her relationship to the theological exploration within her latest novel, Two-Step Devil; her experience of being a Christian and a writer, but not a “Christian Writer”; and how the trinity of main characters in the novel speak to and open up her own deepest concerns about the state of our country and the world we inhabit.Jamie Quatro is the New York Times Notable author of I Want to Show You More, and Fire Sermon. *Two-Step Devil* is her latest work and is the winner of the 2024 Willie Morris Award for Southern Writing, and it's also been named a New York Times Editor's Choice, among other accolades.

Medieval women ruled over kingdoms, abbeys, and households; produced stunning works of art and craft; and did the hard work that kept ordinary families fed and clothed. Though women's contributions were often diminished or completely ignored in written accounts, art tells a different story: women appear everywhere, from the margins of illuminated manuscripts to grand tapestries. In Women in the Middle Ages: Illuminating the World of Peasants, Nuns, and Queens (Abbeville Press, 2024), historian Gemma Hollman uses the visual as well as the written record to uncover the real lives of medieval European women. Hollman traces the lives of women across society, dedicating chapters to nuns like Hildegard of Bingen, abbess, mystic, and polymath; courtiers like Christine de Pisan, author of pioneering works on women's role in society; warriors like Joan of Arc; and the everyday women whose names are lost to history. Illustrated with nearly 200 varied and fascinating works of medieval art, Women in the Middle Ages offers a new perspective on the lives and contributions of medieval women and how they were portrayed. This book is a treasure for anyone interested in the Middle Ages or women's history. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose new book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

Imagine two kindred souls meeting across centuries—one, a 12th-century saint named Hildegard of Bingen, and the other, a modern-day indigenous healer, Grandmother Esperanza. Both women, though separated by time, share a profound connection through their love of nature and unwavering faith. In a recent episode of The Robyn Ivy Podcast, my dear friend Ines and I explored the spiritual kinship between Esperanza and Hildegard. Both women embody a divine presence that bridges the gap between the earthly and the ethereal, showing us the power of deep spiritual connection. But why are we sharing their story with you, Grace? Because in witnessing such connections, we see endless possibilities for our own personal and spiritual growth. These encounters remind us that transformation is on the horizon when we open ourselves to learning from those who have tread the path of love and devotion before us. This June you're invited to journey with us to Germany's Rhine River Valley for a 5 day retreat combining the teachings and healing of Grandmother Esperanza with visits to the sacred sites of Hildegard. Step into transformative experiences, and create spiritual connections that will guide you toward a more meaningful and fulfilling life. Main Takeaways for Listeners: A Live, Unfiltered Conversation – This episode was recorded at Grandmother Esperanza's home, where unexpected moments bring humor and authenticity to the dialogue.Ines Reimers' Journey – From public prosecutor to nature coach and mediator, Ines shares her path to nonviolent communication and deep spiritual work.A Spiritual Connection Across Time – Discover how Hildegard of Bingen's wisdom and Esperanza's healing traditions intertwine, offering insight into faith, nature, and transformation.A Transformative Retreat Opportunity – This June, journey with us to Germany's Rhine River Valley for a unique 5-day retreat bridging Esperanza's teachings with Hildegard's sacred sites. MORE ABOUT INES REIMERS Ines Reimers (59), mother of two adult sons, has left her 35-year-long career in the judicial system of Germany only last year to follow her heart. She has found her love to nature and through this began to follow the spiritual path when she experienced the healing qualities of just being in the forest.  In 2017 she discovered the transformative effects of Nonviolent Communication (M. Rosenberg) on relationships and since 2020 gives trainings herself. She is also a mentor to women in leadership positions and as a certified mediator helping couples and families with their conflicts.  This year she accomplished a training as a nature coach to introduce nature to all parts of her work. She lives with her partner and dog Sammy in Mainz (near Frankfurt), a region near where St. Hildegard of Bingen used to live in the 12th century. Deeply interested in the life and work of this extraordinary woman of her time she became spiritually connected and offers seminars to share the legacy of her sacred spirit. www.ines-reimers.de  MORE ABOUT ROBYN IVY Robyn Ivy sees people for a living.

RESOURCES: Join Walking in Core Strength Today! Beth Allison Barr's website "Becoming the Pastor's Wife" by Beth Allison Barr What does it mean to be a pastor's wife? Is it a God-ordained role, or has it been shaped by culture? And how do women in ministry or marriage find freedom when their identity feels crushed under the weight of unrealistic expectations? In this powerful and eye-opening episode, Leslie sits down with Dr. Beth Allison Barr, a medieval historian, pastor's wife, and author of The Making of Biblical Womanhood and Becoming the Pastor's Wife: How Marriage Replaced Ordination as Women's Paths to Ministry. Together, they uncover the hidden history of women in the church, the pressures placed on pastor's wives, and the rise of complementarian theology that has harmed both women and men. Beth also shares practical wisdom for women navigating abusive marriages, ministry challenges, and the journey to rediscover their God-given identity. Whether you're a pastor's wife, married to a man in leadership, or simply navigating the tension between cultural expectations and God's calling, this episode will inspire you to seek truth, embrace courage, and step into the freedom God has for you. Key Takeaways: The Pastor's Wife Role: Cultural, Not Biblical Many assume the role of the pastor's wife is biblically mandated, but Beth reveals that it is a cultural construct that emerged in modern history. While the role can be valuable for those called to it, it is not the primary calling for all women. Recognizing this truth is freeing and helps dismantle harmful expectations. Empowering Lessons from Black Churches Black pastor's wives have historically embraced more freedom and authority in their roles, often co-pastoring or pursuing ministry outside their husband's church. Unlike white evangelical churches, where the pastor's wife is expected to embody the “ideal” biblical woman, Black church traditions emphasize authenticity and community support. The Legacy of Women in Church Leadership The medieval church had space for women in leadership, with figures like Mary Magdalene, Hildegard of Bingen, and Catherine of Siena preaching and holding authority. Beth challenges listeners to revisit Romans 16, where women are commended as apostles, deacons, and house church leaders, proving that women's leadership has always been part of God's design. The Rise of Complementarian Theology and Its Harm Complementarian theology, which ties women's worth to their husband's ministry, rose in the 20th century as a reaction to women gaining autonomy in society. This theology pressures women to prioritize their husband's needs over their own, often leading to emotional and spiritual harm. It also isolates pastor's wives, making it difficult for them to find support or speak out against abuse. The Burden of Perfection and the Danger of Silence Pastor's wives—and women in ministry—often feel pressured to maintain an image of perfection, from their appearance to their children's behavior. This isolation becomes dangerous when they are in abusive marriages, as speaking out can cost them everything. Leslie and Beth discuss the importance of breaking the silence, seeking support, and prioritizing safety over the preservation of harmful institutions. Becoming God-Centered, Not Husband-Centered Women are often taught to center their lives on their husbands, but true freedom comes from being God-centered. Leslie and Beth encourage listeners to seek God's voice and ask, “What are you calling me to do?” Each woman is uniquely gifted and called for a purpose beyond cultural expectations.

Thirty years ago, in both Evangelium Vitae and his Letter to Women, John Paul II issued a clear call for the genius of women to be “more fully expressed in the life of society as a whole, as well as in the life of the Church” (Letter to Women10). Throughout his papacy, in fact, JPII emphasized women's “prophetic character,” calling on them to be “witnesses” and “sentinels” — guardians of the sacred gift of life and the order of love (Mulieris Dignitatem 29; Homily at Lourdes2004).This vision for women, clarified and proclaimed in the late twentieth century especially, has yet to be fully realized. Catholics in contemporary America face distorted narratives about women from both poles of our divided culture. By revisiting and extending John Paul II's thought we come upon the opportunity to offer a positive countervision to, on the one hand, the growing anti-feminism in some Catholic circles and, on the other hand, the widely-held perception that the Church is anti-woman.The McGrath Institute for Church Life is hosting a conference that aims to help develop that positive countervision.“True Genius: The Mission of Women in Church and Culture” will take place March 26 to March 28, 2025, on the campus of the University of Notre Dame. It boasts a stellar roster of speakers, including Helen Alvare, Sr. Ann Astell, Erika Bachiochi, Angela Franks, Sarah Denny Lorio, Sr. Theresa Alethia Noble, Leah Libresco Sargeant, and my guest today, Abigail Favale. Abigail and I are colleagues in the McGrath Institute, and she is the conference convener and orgranizer.Registration for the “True Genius” conference is now open, and we have links to more conference information and registration available in our show notes. Show Notes:“True Genius: The Mission of Women in Church and Culture” conference information and registration “Can the Feminine Speak?” by Abigail Favale, article in Church Life Journal “Hildegard of Bingen's Vital Contribution to the Concept of Woman,” by Abigail Favale, article in Church Life Journal“No Woman Is Only Woman: Distilling the Feminine Genius from Stereotypes,” interview with Sr. Theresa Aletheia Noble on The Catholic WomanChurch Life Today is a partnership between the McGrath Institute for Church Life at the University of Notre Dame and OSV Podcasts from Our Sunday Visitor.

Grandpa Bill's Grunts & Groans Aromatherapy: A History with Nutmeg Aromatherapy, the practice of using essential oils for therapeutic benefits, has a rich history dating back thousands of years. Ancient civilizations like the Egyptians, Greeks, and Romans utilized aromatic plants for various purposes, including medicine, cosmetics, and religious rituals. While nutmeg's use in aromatherapy is not as widespread as some other oils, it has a place in this history. Ancient Uses: Egypt: The Egyptians, known for their sophisticated use of aromatics, likely incorporated nutmeg into their blends for perfumes and incense. They valued its warming and stimulating properties. Greece and Rome: Ancient Greek and Roman physicians, including Hippocrates, documented the medicinal uses of nutmeg. They believed it could aid digestion and alleviate pain. Medieval and Renaissance: Trade Routes: During the Middle Ages, nutmeg became a valuable commodity traded along the Silk Road. It was used in both culinary and medicinal practices. European Herbalists: Herbalists like Hildegard of Bingen recognized nutmeg's potential for treating digestive issues and nervous disorders. Modern Aromatherapy: Nutmeg Essential Oil: Today, nutmeg essential oil is used in aromatherapy for its warming, stimulating, and uplifting properties. It is often used in blends to address fatigue, muscle aches, and digestive discomfort. Emotional Well-being: Nutmeg oil is also believed to have a positive effect on mood, helping to reduce anxiety and promote relaxation. Important Note: Nutmeg essential oil should be used with caution, as it contains compounds that can be toxic in high doses. It is always best to consult with a qualified aromatherapist before using any essential oil, especially if you are pregnant, nursing, or have any underlying health conditions. #aromatherapy, #nutmeg,#essentialoils,#naturalremedies,#wellness,#history,#ancientwisdom, The Aromatic History of Nutmeg: A Journey Through Time Nutmeg in Aromatherapy: A Warming and Uplifting Tradition Exploring the Therapeutic Uses of Nutmeg Essential Oil From Ancient Egypt to Modern Wellness: The Story of Nutmeg in Aromatherapy The Power of Nutmeg: A Natural Remedy for Mind and Body BH Sales Kennel Kelp Holistic Healing Hour Virtual Mall Host and Moderator-Grandpa Bill:Website: https://www.7kmetals.com/grandpabill    https://www.7kmetals.com/grandpabill/share/p386dYouTube: Bill Holt@billholt8792Social Media: https://www.facebook.com/bill.sales.524Social Media: https://www.instagram.com/bradybrodyboy12/E-mail Message Board: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/bhsalesDisclaimer: This content is provided for informational purposes only and does not intend to substitute professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.    The Maine Virtual Mall: A free platform for repeat guests of Grandpa Bill's show.
