Apple Pie Playground with Valerie Title: What is your divine child's ikigai? What gets you up in the morning? If it's your alarm clock, let's talk. What Is Your Divine Child's Ikigai? Sacred Geometry, Blue Zones, and Finding Your Reason for Being Valerie leads a solo hour on Apple Pie Playground exploring the Japanese concept of ikigai, tracing its sacred geometry and Okinawan Blue Zone roots before guiding listeners through a live four-column exercise to measure their own passion, purpose, mastery, and profession. Welcome To The Divine Playground Valerie opens Apple Pie Playground by welcoming listeners back to what she calls the place where divine children play under the Tree of Life. She explains the Kabbalah's structure of a mother principle, a father principle, and a child, describing the child as representing the emotional or astral body, the part of consciousness that carries emotion, imagination, and passion. She notes that the phrase get your head out of the clouds actually references that same astral nature of daydreaming and imagining. Valerie invites listeners to spend the hour indulging their inner child, dabbling in imaginings of a better world, and thanks BBS Radio for bringing everyone together on the playground. She frames understanding the divine inner child as more than nostalgia for childhood memories, setting up a discussion of how ancient spiritual traditions treated that inner spark as something sacred and worth deliberately awakening within the body. Gnostic Roots Of The Sacred Child Valerie turns to Gnostic practice, explaining that devotees worked to incarnate what they called the sacred child, or divine spark, into the physical body, a process meant to pull Christ consciousness into the vessel and awaken what she calls the inner sun within. She ties this to ideas from earlier shows about a universe and a central sun existing inside the human body. She says some call this receiving the Holy Spirit and others call it reconnecting with source consciousness, framing them as the same experience described differently. Valerie argues humanity has lost its essential connection to source through what she calls dark design, and that reconnecting is intentional, mission-critical work accomplished through daily devotions, rituals, and meditations. She recommends a YouTube and Spotify teacher named Morg, spelled M-O-R-G, praising his integration of Kabbalah, Gnosticism, biblical and Christian studies, and encouraging listeners to simply pick a video of his and get started. A Date In History Before turning to her planned topic, Valerie flags something from the news she feels went largely unnoticed: President Trump's speech at the United Nations this week, delivered on September 22nd. She recalls that the same date in history marked President Lincoln's preliminary Emancipation Proclamation, a stern warning that in 100 days the government would consider enslaved people in hostile Confederate states to be free. Valerie draws a parallel between Lincoln acting as commander-in-chief during wartime and Trump addressing the United Nations while presiding over a military she describes as in active combat, under what she says some call martial law. She wonders aloud whether the UN speech quietly drew a line in the sand for a liberated humanity, and whether a hundred days might bring freedoms not yet imaginable. She acknowledges she may be reaching, but urges listeners to consider world events through a more mystical or metaphorical lens. Introducing Ikigai And Sacred Geometry Valerie pivots to the day's chosen topic, ikigai, a Japanese concept she describes as more intricate and debated than she expected, essentially a debate about happiness. She explains that ikigai, or one's reason for being, is typically illustrated with a Venn diagram combining four questions: what is your passion, your purpose, your mastery or skill, and your profession or service. Answering these, she says, builds an internal sense of life's worth and self-realization. Valerie highlights that the Venn diagram takes the shape of a vesica piscis, which in sacred geometry is the foundation of the Flower of Life, a pattern she says animates the cosmos. She suggests that practicing ikigai connects a person to the same creation energies embedded in that geometry, linking a simple word for contentment to a much larger cosmic design, and promises to unpack what ikigai actually means and where it comes from next. Lessons From Okinawa's Blue Zone Valerie traces ikigai's roots to Okinawa, a so-called Blue Zone she says is home to a remarkable concentration of centenarians, and credits much of that longevity to daily ikigai practices. She describes hara hachi bu, eating until only about eighty percent full, along with constant gentle movement such as walking, bending, sitting on the ground for meals, and living by the rhythm of sunrise and sunset rather than the clock. She notes that traditional Okinawan culture has no real concept of retirement and that people tend medicinal gardens for home remedies. Valerie then explores Shintoism's concept of kami, the belief that all things carry divine spirit, which extends a person's reason for being toward serving community harmony, or wa, rather than the self alone. She describes moai, small childhood friend groups that stay close for life, as a fading but treasured practice, and closes with the Zen Buddhist view that everyday life itself is the greatest teacher. A Four-Column Ikigai Exercise With time running short, Valerie leads a simplified, live version of the ikigai Venn diagram, asking listeners to grab paper and draw three lines to make four columns labeled Passion, Purpose, Mastery, and Profession, filling each from the bottom up. For every column she poses three candid questions, such as how clear one's greatest passion is, how much of the week goes to others' demands, how easily a loved one could state one's life purpose, and how ready one feels to retire regardless of age, asking listeners to score each answer as a percentage. She explains that columns with stronger percentages at the bottom than the top suggest a life built on solid footing, while the reverse suggests a structure unlikely to stand. Valerie frames the exercise as a starting point for further reflection during the week ahead, then thanks BBS Radio and her listeners before the pre-recorded announcer closes the show and invites everyone back the following Sunday.

So, turns out our horny —sorry, "horned" — romantic Pluto has siblings. And like all siblings, they're annoying, disruptive, omniscientish, and likely to go darting off through space at something approaching light speed just to show off in front of YOUR girlfriend. Ok, those last two might apply more to Pluto's sibs than yours. Whatever the case, they hog all the ambrosia, snap your privates with a lightning bolt when you least expect it ... yeah, I hear it, that might be more Pluto's sibs than yours too, but you get my point — annoying.And like all siblings, they expect all the plebes to worship the very ground they walk on. Even if that ground was the plebes' to start with.In this fabulous bonus episode penned by our own Pete Barry (we love that guy, even if we want to drown Bob in his own earwax), Pluto of the honey-covered voice and words returns to sweep Donna off on the kind of impromptu vacay that requires super powers and membership in the Valhalla of Fame.

Do Brain Supplements Work? Sorting The Evidence From The Marketing "For most healthy adults, brain supplements don't work. Nootropics like ginkgo biloba and lion's mane have failed to show meaningful cognitive benefit in rigorous trials. Supplements do earn their place in one situation: correcting a genuine nutrient deficiency, such as low vitamin B12 or vitamin D. Beyond that, the effect sizes are small, and sleep, movement and food do far more."

They're both practicing neurologists, scientists, authors, parents, and a husband and wife duo that know the value of healthy lifestyle choices and they've  seen the impact that their NEURO Plan framework has in making the sick healthy and in taking healthy to the next level.  They met as young physicians and in their first conversation learned that both of their grandparents had spent their remaining days on this Earth suffering from dementia. They vowed to do whatever they could to help others avoid this fate and build healthy minds and bodies. They conduct research, treat patients, and serve as professors at Georgetown University, Columbia University, the National Institutes of Health, Mount Sinai, and Loma Linda University, where they serve as the co-directors of The Alzheimer's Prevention Program.

The Indianapolis Colts kicked off training camp at Westfield's Grand Park Sports Campus.Dave Griffiths, Mike Chappell and Matt Adams discuss top news from camp, including observations on Daniel Jones, Jonathan Taylor and DeForest Buckner.

On this episode of the Harvest Series, host Rose Claverie sits down with explorer and Blue Zones creator Dan Buettner to explore what really helps people live longer, healthier lives. After decades studying the world's longest-living populations, Dan argues that longevity is less about supplements, discipline, or biohacking and more about environment, social connection, movement, purpose, and community.The conversation explores modern society, processed food, loneliness, urban design, capitalism, faith, friendship, happiness, and aging. Dan explains why healthy environments shape healthy behavior more effectively than willpower ever can and why governments and cities play a major role in public health outcomes. The episode also examines purpose, family, meaningful relationships, and how modern life quietly disconnects humans from the conditions they evolved for.Dan also reflects on parenting, legacy, curiosity, and his future work redesigning cities around Blue Zone principles. This is a conversation about longevity, but also about creating lives that feel more connected, meaningful, and human.Chapters00:00 Introduction to Dan Buettner00:52 Imagination and exploration02:02 Why modern life is going in the wrong direction03:20 The lessons of the Blue Zones04:16 Stop changing behavior, change environment05:05 Neighborhoods and life expectancy06:24 Can governments create new Blue Zones?07:55 Food systems, capitalism, and responsibility10:13 Government policy and public health11:09 Faith, friendship, and longevity13:31 Freedom, discipline, and social structures14:50 Governments, health, and regulation16:51 Food or friendship: what matters more?17:25 Reflections on Shaka Senghor19:28 George Plimpton and changing his life20:35 Feeling different and curiosity21:08 Visiting the Blue Zones22:39 Living in Ikaria23:14 Wine, pleasure, and joy in longevity25:18 Plant medicine and altered states25:43 The secret to healthy skin26:21 AI and the future of longevity27:15 Aging, happiness, and emotional wellbeing28:01 What creates a “dark zone”?28:38 Legacy and raising children29:48 How to end things gracefully30:15 Beau Lotto's question about action31:05 Purpose, values, and meaning32:47 Curating your social circle34:01 Why people don't act on good advice35:35 Question for Michael Pollan36:11 New Blue Zones and future projects37:04 Designing healthier cities37:32 Closing reflectionsThis season of the Harvest Series podcast is made possible by Spark of Light.

This week, we conclude our 4-part series on the 6th-leading cause of death in America.  We discuss how to protect the brain at all stages of life.  In this episode, we talk about:—Why Dr. Prather thinks it is an excuse that Alzheimer's is increasing because people are just living longer or it's diagnosed better, but that it is actually increasing because there is some kind of stressor that wasn't there before. —The importance of protecting Brain Health starting in the womb.  And how Iodine is the most critical part of Brain development and will determine how smart your child will be. —How breastfeeding is more beneficial for the development for the baby's brain and cuts down on brain problems later in life.—Why an annual Hair Analysis for children and adults  is important to identify Heavy Metal toxins, which damage the brain.—The link between gut health and Alzheimer's.  And the reason Dr. Prather recommends an annual stool kit for everyone (even babies) to identify the parasites and infections that can damage your Brain health. —How probiotics in the diet (such as fermented foods) and high Fiber intake are key reasons for healthy longevity in the "Blue Zone" areas of the world which have a large number of people living over the age of 100. —The health benefits of the Biblical dietary laws.—Why Sunshine is the best Vitamin D for the body, and is also estimated to provide 34 nutrients that come directly from the Sun.   And why Dr. Prather says it is "untrue" when they say Sunshine is bad for us. —The role proper sleep plays in Dementia and Alzheimer's because our body washes the brain of the amyloid plaques while we sleep.  And how using pharmaceuticals for sleep actually interferes with this process.    —How being around grandchildren is scientifically proven to help both the health of the grandparent and the development of the child. http://www.TheVoiceOfHealthRadio.com*Receive exclusive bonus content as a member of our Voice Of Health Patreon Community:https://www.patreon.com/cw/VoiceofHealthPodcast

The crew is back together a week ahead of training camp. Dave Griffiths, Mike Chappell and Matt Adams look ahead at what's in store.Plus: the Colts work out (another) safety, two Colts make the "Team Backup," and we explore Josh Downs' prospects as a breakout player.

Dr. Phil Narini spent decades hunting, fishing, and eating meat-centric Italian home cooking before a single lecture on fish and mercury changed his and his wife's eating habits overnight — no cravings, no willpower. Fifteen years later, he's a reconstructive plastic surgeon who insists he's not a nutrition expert (and thinks you should be suspicious of anyone who claims to be), co-founder of a whole-food plant-based café built on the idea that healthy food has to taste good first, and an outspoken advocate for scientific skepticism over Instagram influencers. We get into the "trifecta" most doctors won't connect to diet, why medical school teaches close to zero nutrition, what a trip to Sardinia's Blue Zone actually taught him about longevity, and why he'd rather trust someone with fifty years of grey hair than a six-pack and a supplement code.

In this podcast, Greg Voisen sits down with James Laughlin, a seven-time world champion drummer turned high-performance leadership strategist, to dissect the groundbreaking blueprint behind his bestselling book, Habits of High Performers: Essential Principles to Thrive in Life and Work. From surviving the violent chaos of "The Troubles" in Northern Ireland to coaching Fortune 500 CEOs, Olympic athletes, and former prime ministers, Laughlin shares the exact moment a grueling Tony Robbins event forced him to radically pivot his entire life.

 An important password:“Listen to Your Own Inner Wisdom. You are the Key to Your Own Life. Time to Speak the Truth”This powerful Full Moon in Sagittarius, May 31st/June 1st is really the illuminator of this “your re-storying"  your unique Dream”.  This lunar cycle presents  a dynamic opportunity to take a real look at the ideas, thoughts and experiences that came forth during the Full Moon in Scorpio that happened at the beginning of May.This Moon offers both inner focus, and the opportunity to experience worldly experiences through connection to Cosmic Source. Guidance through trusting intuitive insights from the well of personal inspiration is the key for moving toward greater and higher vibrational consciousness.During this lunar cycle, the awareness of growth, expansion, plenty, and abundance are under major consideration.  Even as we look out into the collective society, it's absolutely critical to dream one's own big dreams. What thoughts and dreams have been moving back and forward through your mind during this time?  The notable aspect of this lunar cycle emphasizes  concepts of greater self  expansion, exploration, new perspective through inner awareness and spiritual renewal.With this Full Moon, Jupiter  the planet of expansion, is having a conversation   somewhere in your “Star Map”.  Sagittarius is the sign of fiery and inspired direction. This sign brings a feeling of joy and adventure when you choose confidence, courage, and deep self-belief.  Taking the chance to step out, and “Lucky” Jupiter will pave your way.During this Full Moon you are gaining an energetic boost, and  being called upon to take action on something you've dreamed about during the Sun in Gemini idea generating stage.  With this  Full Moon as it illuminates the pathway.   Jupiter is calling for expansion in a particular area of your life, so it is time to activate and actualize those dreams.  Interestingly enough, this Moon really supports forward motion.  Sagittarius is not a sign for looking back into the past.  In some ways, this sign embodies the "Fool" card in the Tarot.  The character in the card is definitely looking ahead, and standing ready to see what's over the horizon and next mountain.With Sagittarius energy, you have deep support to step fully into taking your vision, intention, desire or dream. What's most important thing is to belief in what you are choosing, which will offer the momentum for moving forward in your life.  So, here it is Full Moon in Sagittarius, and all the planetary players are whispering that it's time for things to change  The combination of the Moon and Jupiter is release with the lunar cycle of the full moon,  and expansion through Jupiter signaling change and a focused on forward motion.I want to give recognition to the powerful supportive energies of Neptune and Saturn both being in the sign of Aries. The fiery energy of the other elemental fire sign is giving this rare "Blue Moon" added impetus. The air elemental of Gemini is important in providing a way for the ideas to be dispersed into the personal and collective consciousness. If you reflect on these signs (air, Gemini idea, with fire action of moving forward with Sagittarius), there is a completeness in understanding how thoughts become "things".So it's time to not only dream, the question is, how will your dream become reality and move your life in the direction you really want to go? Seeking new horizons through study and travelThe sign of Sagittarius represents the areas of life where the deepest beliefs about life are being questioned. The first stage in this questioning process is highlighted by what, and how much an individual believes in self?This lunar cycle is aligned with assessing the experience of inner self worth and how it is lived in daily life expression. Sagittarius  is the sign that is always on a quest to understand what can be called the “higher mind”.  Studies of a spiritual nature, through higher education, publishing, exploring other cultures are the ways in which the Sagittarian individual grows in Soul reconnection, emotional depth and life awareness. Trusting Your Own Voice of TruthAlong with Libra and Scorpio, Sagittarius is a relationship sign. It operates by seeing others as part of a collective consciousness. The impetus of this sign is to interact, to teach, to promote and to bring knowledge about truth, freedom, justice, equality, and spiritual insights to the group experience.  Wherever Sagittarius energy is positioned within a chart, there's a need to share knowledge and wisdom about the Universal Source that is supporting all aspects of life.  Sagittarius is a mutable sign, meaning that it thrives by interacting and communicating deep philosophical and spiritual topics. What is most important in understanding and using the wisdom of this sign, is the absolute requirement to embrace positive beliefs and values of integrity, truth, honesty and freedom for everyone. The Power and Path of Possibility Thinking with SagittariusEach of us carries a collection of inner subconscious programs that are associated with every experience we've ever encountered. Sagittarius is the sign that requires us to go into the significant areas of our lives, and examine the negative beliefs, “shadow” thoughts or low- level vibrational consciousness, where there's judgmentalness, prejudice, and narrow-mindedness about others.Sagittarius has the ability to see and operate from the “big picture experience''. An example of an individual with Moon in Sagittarius, is the cultural icon, Oprah.   By studying her life trajectory, she reveals how the Sagittarian energy is activated through the deep belief that what is invisible can become visible. Sagittarius is a sign that taps the “higher intelligence” through what is known as the “Third Eye”.  The symbol of this sign as half horse with a bow and arrow, deals with piercing the “veil” and seeing beyond the 3 D plane of matter and limitation. The Sagittarius Superpower is “Taking a Leap Of Faith”As a mutable sign, Sagittarius symbolizes the ability to trust,  take physical and emotional risks that life is always supported by Universal or Infinite Source. This sign specializes in searching for and moving toward greater horizons.Looking inward and gaining an understanding of what is meaningful and worthwhile is essential. In this sign the relating principle is seen in desiring to merge with the many experiences encountered on the archetypal “quest” and journeying through life.Mutable signs and planets are the Communicators and Seekers of the ZodiacSagittarius/Gemini depict the archetypes of the “Teacher and Student”.  These signs are associated with both adventure on the earth plane, as well as stepping into the inner and subjective experiences of life.Sagittarius is the sign that brings buoyancy, open hearted- optimism, confidence and courage to interactions and encounters with others. With this sign, there is much complexity because what appears to be obvious often has many layers of meaning, and has to be unraveled through intuitive reflections.Sagittarius is masculine fire sign, meaning that it inspires action, and has a need for direct experiencing of life. Wherever this sign is positioned in the chart is an indicator of the need for deep involvement in a specific area or arena of life.Even though Sagittarius is a fire sign, it has a kinship with the water sign Pisces.  They  both possess a shared awareness of what it means to have “faith” in living life from a deep Soul experience.   Let's have an Astrology Conversation.  I look forward to seeing you.  Now is the time.https://www.soulsoundinsights.com/light-reading.htmlhttps://www.soulsoundinsights.com/music-musings-meditation.htmlI am proud to announce my new offering as a Certified Creative Depth Coach.  As a Creative Depth Coach, I provide guidance, support and soul insights on how to discover, explore and navigate your life by  recognizing your magnificent "Creative Genius".

Australians are living longer and longer, which is on one hand a beautiful thing. But on the other, prolonged old age is wreaking havoc. So how might we respond to this new demographic situation we find ourselves in?Lucinda Holdforth is a writer who specialises in looking at what makes good societies flourish, everything from manners to politics and equality.Most recently, she's set her sights on the unintended negative consequences following the extraordinary increase in life span around the world, particularly in Australia.In the past 50 years, human life expectancy across the globe has jumped from 46 years old to 73, and in Australia that number is even higher -- an Australian born today is likely to live until they are 84 years old.On the surface, living longer is a very good thing. It means more time spent with our loved ones, looking at the stars, feeling the sun, living.But prolonged old age can also be very lonely and painful, and, as Lucinda argues, it is costing society as a whole in many ways.She has seen this firsthand, as a daughter who supported her own parents in their long old age, and has some surprising suggestions about how we could do things differently to ease the impact on our economy, our medical system, our elderly and our youth.GOING ON AND ON: Why our longevity threatens our future is published by Simon & Schuster.This episode was produced by Meggie Morris. Executive Producer is Eliza Kirsch.It explores the sandwich generation, carers, women caring for parents, the elderly, dementia, Alzheimer's, Bryan Johnson, biohackers, Blue Zone, how to live longer, Mediterranean diet, tech bros, longevity, muscle mass, aging, deterioration, aged care, death, grief, how to live well, writing, books, old age, diseases of the elderly, tax, taxation, ageism, voting rights, voting age, lower the voting age.To binge even more great episodes of the Conversations podcast with Richard Fidler and Sarah Kanowski go the ABC listen app (Australia) or wherever you get your podcasts.
