Op de huidige erg krappe arbeidsmarkt is het lastiger dan ooit om talent aan boord te halen en te houden. Onboarding is hiervoor een belangrijk instrument. En dat is het centrale thema in deze aflevering van Brainpickings. We gaan daarover in gesprek met Stefaan Janssen (Officient - onderdeel van Exact), en Alexandra Ranke, werkzaam in de HR-afdeling van Exact. Hoe harder je groeit en nieuwe mensen laat instromen, hoe belangrijker het wordt dat je strakke processen en ondersteunende technologie hebt om je nieuwe medewerkers te verwelkomen met een goede onboarding. ✅ Automatiseer wat geautomatiseerd kan worden✅ Zorg voor een 'warm welkom' met enkele verrassingen✅ Heb aandacht voor connectie en verbinding✅ Spreek je commitment uit: waar gaan we samen naartoe?

In deze podcast hebben we Luc Haekens uitgenodigd: journalist, auteur, acteur en bij het bredere publiek vooral bekend als vliegende reporter destijds van het VIER-programma 'De Ideale Wereld'. Op 55-jarige leeftijd besloot Luc om ondernemer te worden. Hoe dat loopt en wat hij de bedrijfswereld en HR professionals probeert te verkopen, ontdek je in deze kakelverse aflevering van Brainpickings. Net geen 50 minuten inspiratie over (altijd) ondernemen en (te veel) twijfelen; over spijt en stoefen; over De Ideale wereld, de Blauwe gids, Jo Lernout en Hans Bourlon; over risico's nemen en (te) snel groeien; over geluk en timing; over geld, wijn en mayonaise; over Aziaten, televisiemagazines en gaten in de markt; over humor, verbinden en employer branding; over interne & externe communicatie Veel kijk- en luisterplezier!TIP: check de column van LucMEER INFO over Luc zijn producties+++Honger naar meer?

Werkgevers zijn wettelijk verplicht om de psychosociale risico's op het werk (zoals stress, burn-out, ongewenst grensoverschrijdend gedrag) in kaart te brengen en de oorzaken gebonden aan de 5 A's (arbeidsinhoud, arbeidsomstandigheden, arbeidsvoorwaarden, arbeidsrelaties en arbeidsorganisatie) te analyseren. Een risicoanalyse biedt de mogelijkheid om psychosociale risico's op de werkvloer op te sporen en aan te pakken om zo het welzijn van medewerkers te verbeteren. Een wettelijke verplichting. Maar dat is natuurlijk slechts het startpunt. En bij Take Away.com hebben ze dat heel goed begrepen. Ze gingen actief aan de slag met de resultaten van deze risicoanalyse en lieten zich daarbij ondersteunen door Attentia.Ik kruip in deze aflevering van Brainpickings in het hoofd van Heleen Mathys, Preventieadviseur Psychosociale Aspecten bij Attentia en in dat van Lisa De Winter - Senior Project Manager en vertrouwenspersoon bij Just Eat Takeaway.com. En ik ben daarvoor te gast bij Upoffiz in Gent aan de Loop vlakbij Flanders Expo, een ecosysteem van groeibedrijven die duurzaamheid en community hoog in het vaandel dragen, net zoals Nele Van Damme en Koenraad Belsack, het ondernemerskoppel dat aan de basis ligt van Upoffiz.

Ondanks het recordaantal langdurig zieken in ons land heeft 43% van alle Belgische bedrijven geen zicht op hun ziekteverzuimcijfers. Dat is alarmerend, want als je niet weet hoe groot het probleem is, als je niet weet welke directe én indirecte kosten hiermee gepaard gaan en wat de mogelijke oorzaken van uitval kunnen zijn, dan wordt er ook niet ingezet op het terugdringen van verzuim.Nochtans zijn alle ondernemingen in ons land sinds oktober 2022 wettelijk verplicht om werk te maken van een collectief re-integratiebeleid. Het feit dat bedrijven geen verzuimbeleid hebben en dat er doorgaans louter reactief gewerkt wordt, zorgt voor druk op het budget, druk op de dienstverlening en planning en druk op het mentale welzijn van collega's die moeten inspringen voor medewerkers die uitvallen.Bedrijven zien ziekteverzuim als iets abstract en moeilijk meetbaar. Data en automatisatie kunnen daar iets aan doen, in de vorm van verzuimsoftware. Met verzuimsoftware kan je niet alleen je verzuimprocedures borgen en de betrokkenen ondersteunen, je kan er ook je verzuimcijfers centraliseren en meten. Dat is de insteek van deze podcast en ik heb daarvoor Diederik Benders op bezoek. Samen met Roel van der Sanden heeft hij in 2003 Other Side At Work opgericht, marktleider in Nederland en ondertussen ook actief in België. We zijn voor deze aflevering van Brainpickings te gast bij Upoffiz in Gent aan de Loop vlakbij Flanders Expo, een ecosysteem van groeibedrijven die duurzaamheid en community hoog in het vaandel dragen.

In deze aflevering van Brainpickings kruip ik in het hoofd van Frans van de Ven. Frans is auteur van 'Iedereen kan leiden', een boek over persoonlijk leiderschap in organisaties. Als zelfstandig coach-adviseur voor Randstad Risesmart begeleidt hij executive teams en hun HR partners door de domeinen leiderschap, talentmanagement en organisatieverandering. En recent is hij gestart met leadership trails. “All truly great thoughts are conceived by walking" zou Friedrich Nietzsche ooit gezegd hebben. Frans is er alvast ook van overtuigd. Het werd een heerlijke gesprek over authenticiteit, (persoonlijk) leiderschap, eenvoud, connectie, natuur en natuurlijkheid, fukinsei (actieve rust), over de blue zones, over het belang van deconnectie, zingeving, feedback en stilte. We staan vandaag veel verder in leiderschap dan twee decennia geleden, zegt Frans. Naarmate de snelheid toeneemt, wordt het volgens hem nog belangrijker om actief te rusten en te reflecteren. We hebben het over de link tussen wiskunde en leiderschap, over de balans tussen autonomie en verbinding en over onze zoektocht naar een ander ritme. Een sprint wordt gewonnen in de voorbereiding en in de evaluatie, zegt Frans. Iets om mee te nemen in de snelle ratrace van vandaag...

Chapter 1What is SolitudeOnce upon a time, there was a book called "Solitude" by Anthony Storr. In this intriguing tale, Storr explores the importance of solitude in our lives. He delves deep into the idea that spending time alone can actually enhance our creativity, self-reflection, and overall well-being.Through captivating stories and thought-provoking insights, Storr uncovers the various ways in which solitude can be a source of strength and inspiration. Whether it's taking a quiet walk in nature or simply enjoying a moment of silence, Storr reminds us that solitude is not something to be feared, but rather embraced.So, dear reader, next time you find yourself craving some alone time, remember the wise words of Storr and allow yourself the gift of solitude. Who knows what wonders it may bring into your life.Chapter 2 Meet the Writer of SolitudeAnthony Storr adeptly employs his writing skills and language style to convey the complex emotions and meanings of solitude in his work. Through vivid descriptions, evocative language, and introspective reflections, Storr is able to capture the depth and significance of solitary experiences. His use of precise and impactful language helps to evoke the feeling of being alone, the introspection that can come with solitude, and the potential for both introspection and growth that solitude can provide. Storr's writing style effectively conveys the nuances and complexities of solitude, offering readers a deep and reflective exploration of this often misunderstood experience.Chapter 3 Deeper Understanding of SolitudeSolitude has played a significant role in shaping literature, culture, and society throughout history. Many writers and artists have turned to solitude as a source of inspiration and creativity, using the quiet and reflection that comes with being alone to produce some of their most profound works.One of the most notable examples of the influence of solitude on literature is the Romantic poets, who celebrated the individual and the natural world in their works. Poets such as Wordsworth, Coleridge, and Shelley wrote about the beauty and power of solitary experiences in nature, often reflecting on the profound insights and emotions that can arise from being alone.Solitude has also had a significant impact on culture, particularly in the realm of spirituality and religious practice. Many religious traditions emphasize the importance of solitude for deepening one's connection to a higher power or achieving spiritual enlightenment. Practices such as meditation, prayer, and retreats often involve periods of solitude and silence as a means of fostering inner peace and self-discovery.In modern society, the concept of solitude has taken on new meaning in the context of digital technology and constant connectivity. Many people now view solitude as a rare and precious commodity, a chance to unplug from the noise and distractions of daily life and focus on self-care and introspection. The rise of movements such as mindfulness and digital detoxing reflects a growing recognition of the importance of solitude in maintaining mental health and well-being.Overall, solitude has the power to change people's ways of thinking by providing space for reflection, creativity, and personal growth. It has had a significant impact on various fields, from literature and art to spirituality and mental health, shaping how individuals engage with themselves and the world around them.Chapter 4 Other Accessible Resources1.

For 17 years Maria Popova has kept an online literary journal of sorts, a catalogue of what she's been reading, contemplating and grappling with across multiple disciplines — literature, science, art, philosophy, poetry and what she has called “various other tentacles of human thought and feeling.” She started her site, the Marginalian, under a different name — you may remember it as Brain Pickings — as an email to a few friends and colleagues, a personal record of reckoning with her own search for meaning. Today it consists of hundreds of thousands of entries, cross linking ideas and connecting metaphysical dots. It is fundamentally a personal project, a map of one woman's quest to understand this weird experience called life. And yet over the years it has proven to have a universal appeal, attracting millions of readers from all over the world who take comfort or pick up wisdom from her lyrical close readings.

Openlijk praten over ons loon. Het is iets wat Belgen niet gemakkelijk doen. En ook werkgevers communiceren niet graag over wat hun medewerkers verdienen. Nochtans zal het in de toekomst wel moeten want in april dit jaar nam Europa nieuwe richtlijnen aan over loontransparantie, de zogenaamde EU Pay Transparency Directive. Hierdoor zullen werknemers hun salaris kunnen vergelijken met dat van anderen in gelijkaardige functies. Hoewel deze directive nog omgezet moet worden in nationale wetgeving en we dus nog niet weten aan welke voorwaarden we in België zullen moeten voldoen, doe je er toch goed aan om nu al na te denken over een meer transparante loon filosofie. Gelijk loon voor gelijk werk is een basisrecht.Maar wat verstaan we daar eigenlijk onder? Het getuigt van goed werkgeverschap om werk te maken van een doordachte loonstructuur die de verschillen tussen functies in je organisatie op een objectieve manier verklaart. Wat moet je weten over die richtlijn? Hoe zal dat jouw total reward beleid en je andere HR processen impacteren? En hoe kan je je daar vandaag best op voorbereiden? Dat ontdek je in deze aflevering van Brainpickings en ik heb daarvoor 2 experten uitgenodigd die daar bijzonder veel kaas van gegeten hebben: Arne Coutteau, lead HR analytics en Wout Dejaegere, Manager Total Reward Consultant bij Attentia.

In deze podcast kruip ik in het hoofd van Peter Van De Wielle en Maarten Pinxten, Director en Senior Manager Workforce Transformation bij Deloitte België. We zoomen in deze aflevering van Brainpickings in op één van de overkoepelende trends uit het Global Human Capital Trends Report van Deloitte: Navigating the end of jobs en - daarmee gepaard gaand - the skills based organization. Het concept van een job zit zo hard ingebakken in de manier waarop organisaties vandaag werken dat het onmogelijk lijkt om werk en werknemers nog op een andere manier te managen. Maar het wringt. We doen er volgens mijn gasten beter aan om beslissingen over werk en medewerkers te nemen op basis skills in plaats van jobs. Navigating the end of jobs luidt volgens hen een nieuw tijdperk in, dat van de skills based organization. Wat zijn de belangrijkste drivers van deze evolutie?Wat houdt dat dan concreet in, een skills based organization?En hoe begin je daaraan? Dat ontdek je in deze aflevering van Brainpickings!

This week, a Best OF episode revisiting our conversation with Maria Popova, the creator and writer behind The Marginalian (formerly known as Brain Pickings). For the past 16 years, The Marginalia has been a daily—perhaps even hourly—exploration of wonder in our world as seen through the lenses of how we as humans express ourselves in our own creativity, our intellectual curiosity, our sadnesses and griefs, and in our greatest loves and joys. Gardening and gardeners are recurrently among the human endeavors Maria has explored these many years. This is a light of a conversation in the best spirit of quantum gardening as we tend toward the fullness of Autumn's splendor. Join us! Cultivating Place now has a donate button!

Today we welcome Eric Zimmer to the podcast. Eric works as a behavior coach and has done so for the past 20 years. He has coached hundreds of people from around the world on how to make significant life changes that serve them well in achieving the goals they've set for themselves. He also hosts the award-winning podcast, The One You Feed. With over 30 million downloads, the show features conversations with experts across many fields of study about how to create a life that has less suffering and more fulfillment and meaning. His story and his work have been featured in the media including TedX, Mind Body Green, Elephant Journal, the BBC and Brain Pickings.In this episode, I talk to Eric Zimmer about how to have a meaningful engagement with life. When we feel connected to what matters, it becomes easier to create an action plan that gets us moving in the right direction. At times, our emotions can get in the way but Eric believes that focusing on behavior changes can help us re-train our thoughts while leading us to our desired outcomes. Eric combines principles from religion, philosophy, and psychology to give us tips on how we can live out our values more mindfully day by day. We also touch on the topics of spirituality, agency, self-love, addiction, and emotions.

Sad news for all of us: producer Rachael Cusick— who brought us soul-stirring stories rethinking grief (https://zpr.io/GZ6xEvpzsbHU) and solitude (https://zpr.io/eT5tAX6JtYra), as well as colorful musings on airplane farts (https://zpr.io/CNpgUijZiuZ4) and belly flops (https://zpr.io/uZrEz27z63CB) and Blueberry Earths (https://zpr.io/EzxgtdTRGVzz)— is leaving the show. So we thought it perfect timing to sit down with her and revisit another brainchild of hers, The Cataclysm Sentence, a collection of advice for The End. To explain: one day in 1961, the famous physicist Richard Feynman stepped in front of a Caltech lecture hall and posed this question to a group of undergraduate students: “If, in some cataclysm, all of scientific knowledge were to be destroyed, and only one sentence was passed on to the next generation of creatures, what statement would contain the most information in the fewest words?” Now, Feynman had an answer to his own question—a good one. But his question got the entire team at Radiolab wondering, what did his sentence leave out? So we posed Feynman's cataclysm question to some of our favorite writers, artists, historians, futurists—all kinds of great thinkers. We asked them “What's the one sentence you would want to pass on to the next generation that would contain the most information in the fewest words?” What came back was an explosive collage of what it means to be alive right here and now, and what we want to say before we go.

At 24 years old, Eric Zimmer was homeless, addicted to heroin, and facing jail time. In the decades since, he has found a way to recover from addiction and build a life worth living for himself, while coaching others through his programs and award-winning podcast The One You Feed, based on an old parable about two wolves at battle within us (a story I also share in Pivot). We had the great pleasure of recording in person—while meeting for the first time! This was extra special because of how much Eric generously shares about his pivots through addiction and recovery, the deeper needs beneath destructive coping habits, how challenging addiction can be on friends and family, and what the literature often gets wrong about codependency. More About Eric: For the past 20 years, Eric Zimmer has worked as a behavior coach. He's also a Certified Interfaith Spiritual Director, podcaster, and writer, who is endlessly inspired by the quest for a greater understanding of how our minds work and how to intellectually create the lives we want to live. Since 2014, he has been hosting the award-winning podcast, The One You Feed, based on an old parable about two wolves at battle within us. His story and his work have been featured in the media including TEDx, Mind Body Green, Elephant Journal, the BBC, and Brain Pickings.
We gaan het in deze aflevering van Brainpickings hebben over de HR scan, een onderzoek van Hogeschool Gent, KU Leuven, UGent en Securex naar leiderschap, job design en HRM-praktijken in Belgische kmo's. Dit onderzoek brengt op een onderbouwde manier het HR beleid van KMO's in beeld. Bedoeling is om enerzijds na te gaan welke praktijken rond HRM, job design en leiderschap gangbaar zijn in KMO's in ons land, en anderzijds om te bestuderen onder welke voorwaarden deze praktijken kunnen leiden tot een hoog werknemerswelzijn en hoge organisatieprestaties. Een vrij unieke samenwerking tussen twee universiteiten, een hogeschool en een commerciële partner. 53 KMO's namen ondertussen deel aan dit onderzoek en de eerste inzichten zijn bekend. Daarover ga ik in gesprek met Charlotte Malengier en Chloé Tuteleers. Charlotte behaalde haar Master Bedrijfspsychologie aan de UGent en sinds 2020 is ze aan de slag als wetenschappelijk medewerker bij HOGENT binnen het Research Centre for Sustainable Organizations. Haar onderzoeksfocus ligt op HRM en organisatieontwikkeling bij Kmo's. Ze werkt momenteel ook aan een onderzoek naar de gevolgen van telewerk op een duurzaam HR-beleid. Chloé is verbonden aan de KU Leuven (faculteit economie en bedrijfswetenschappen) en ze gaat in het kader van haar doctoraat verder aan de slag met dit onderzoek.

Flexibel leren in een online wereld. Daarover gaan we het hebben in deze aflevering van Brainpickings. Samen met drie boeiende gesprekspartners: Indyra Olivier, Operations Manager België FLOWSPARKS, Laura Rottiers, Rekrutering & Selectie Expert bij Wit-Gele Kruis Oost-Vlaanderen & Ann Dobbelaere, Vormingscoördinator en aanspreekpunt stages bij Wit gele Kruis Oost-Vlaanderen. Eind vorig jaar dienden zich grondige veranderingen aan in de wetgeving voor de wondzorg voor thuisverpleegkundigen. Plots moest alles heel snel gaan; processen moesten aangepast worden, thuisverpleegkundigen moesten geïnformeerd en opgeleid worden en voor klassikale trainingen was er geen tijd meer. Bovendien zijn thuisverpleegkundigen altijd onderweg of bij patiënten. Door het inzetten van e-learnings zijn ze erin geslaagd om iedereen mee te krijgen in het hoe maar ook in het waarom van deze veranderingen. Hoe dat verliep en wat jij daar als HR professional kan uit opsteken, ontdek je in deze podcast. Veel kijk- en luisterplezier!+++Honger naar meer?

In deze episode van Brainpickings gaan we in gesprek met Stéphane Ronse, CEO van Foodbag, de Belgische maaltijdboxleverancier die zijn Foodlovers elke week laat genieten van seizoensgebonden recepten. De ingrediënten komen zo veel mogelijk van lokale producenten en alle gerechten zijn door eigen chefs bereid. Opgericht in 2014 en ondertussen voor de helft in handen van de familie Colruyt. We zijn klaar voor de volgende golf van e-commerce zegt hij. Volgens hem zullen we binnen minder dan tien jaar ook al onze voeding online kopen. E-commerce en een gezond HR beleid, het is zelden een geslaagd huwelijk, maar bij Foodbag staan duurzaamheid en fairness voorop, ook als het gaat over hun people beleid.

Van welvaart naar welzijn. Stilaan voltrekt zich een nieuw toekomstbeeld: het welzijnsparadigma, een paradigma waarbij niet de cijfers of de winst maar de mensen op de eerste plaats komen. People First met andere woorden. Roeland Van Dessel, gedelegeerd bestuurder van Travvant schreef er een boek over waaraan onder andere Erwin De Deyn meewerkte. Tot eind 2019 was hij federaal voorzitter bij vakbondsorganisatie BBTK-ABVV en in ook Isabel van Hoedenaghe, loopbaancoach bij Travvant schuift mee aan. Een podcast over loopbaanbegeleiding en over het LOOP concept. Welkom!In het boek People First wordt het LOOP concept geïntroduceerd. Daarin worden de 3 trajecten die nu los van elkaar bestaan (loopbaanbegeleiding, opleiding & outplacement) geïntegreerd tot één concept. Op die manier zouden medewerkers veel beter begeleid en ondersteund worden doorheen hun loopbaan, wat een sterk positief effect zal hebben op hun jobtevredenheid maar ook op hun duurzame inzetbaarheid. Hoe ziet dat model er concreet uit en wat is ervoor nodig om dat te realiseren? Dat ontdek je in deze episode van Brainpickings +++Honger naar meer?

“Haleh Liza Gafori’s ecstatic and piercing translation has lifted a veil, bringing Rumi closer into the quick of our present. Each poem is a divine invitation. Free your mind. Drown in love.” —V (formerly Eve Ensler) With black curls twirling across her shoulders, Haleh Liza Gafori — a poet, translator, vocalist, and educator — stands on a stage, performs a poem of Rumi that she translated into English, then bursts into song in Persian. As her voice echoes across the room, she evokes the divine ecstasy and vision this great mystic poet is known for — expressing in an intimate manner entirely her own. For well over a decade, Gafori has inspirited and taught the poetry of Persian poets across various universities, festivals, museums, and institutions. A bicultural woman of Persian descent raised in New York, Gafori’s ears are highly attuned to both American poetry and the Persian text. As a child, she listened to her parents recite Rumi’s Persian poetry. “It’s very common for Iranians to memorize poetry,” she explains, saying she would hear these words but not quite understand. But the energy the lines carried, and their effects on the listeners made an early, indelible imprint on her. As an adult, she began reading Rumi in English. “It was interesting that American translators kind of pointed me back to my roots," she says. For Gafori, Rumi’s words offer ancient wisdom pertinent to our current time: What do his poems tell us about ego death, compassion, greed, generosity, selflessness, soul, and the cultivation of ecstasy? What is his liberating take on death? Then she began singing in Persian, and eventually, translating these same poems. “As someone who can look at the Persian and look at the English,” she reflects, “one can see, oh, we don't have these lines here, we're missing these lines, or wow, this is a great, well done translation here, or oh my God, what in the world was happening here? It's a mixture. It's a mixed bag.” Her new book, Gold, is a fresh selection and translation of Rumi’s poems — its title a reference to Rumi and other Sufi poets being alchemists, transforming mental states and feeling states into “the deepest love, the deepest generosity, the most expansive consciousness that we can touch, the ecstatic.” Former Chancellor of the Academy of American Poets Marilyn Hacker describes Gold as “the work of someone who is at once an acute and enamored reader of the original Farsi text, a dedicated miner of context and backstory, and, best of all, a marvelous poet in English.” Gafori explains that the book is a collection sourced from the Divan-e Shams-e Tabrizi, a sprawling text of over 40,000 verses. Each poem here had to be cut from this endless cloth, reshuffled, styled with modern enjambments, and, finally, translated. Perhaps it’s more accurate to think of Gold not as a translation of one medieval mystical poet by a modern poet, but as a collaboration between two equal poets that spans centuries. I saw myself sharp as a thorn. I fled to the softness of petals. I saw myself sour as vinegar. I mixed myself with sugar. An aching eye seeing through pain, a stewing pot of poison, I was both. Reaching for the antidote, I touched compassion. I touched mercy. After a BS in Biological Sciences from Stanford University, Gafori received an MFA in creative writing from City College of New York. Her thesis — comprised of original poems, as well as translations of Persian poets like Sohrap Sepehri and Omran Salahi — earned her an Academy of American Poets Prize and the Goodman Grant for Poetry. She has been featured at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Fetzer Institute’s Gathering on Love and Forgiveness, Bowery Poetry Club, and Verses of Hope hosted by the Marginalian (formerly Brainpickings). For the poetry journal Rattapallax, Gafori served as a guest editor of the New Persian Poetry section. In addition to her gifts as a poet, Gafori is also a musician. For current and past musical projects, including Haale (former spelling of her name, “Haleh”) and The Mast, Gafori toured across the US and Europe, including stops at One Note at Carnegie Hall, the Lincoln Center Out of Doors Festival, and the Bonnaroo Festival. Her albums have received critical acclaim, and her songs have appeared in the NBC’s series “Life” and the CWTV’s series “The Originals.” In 2018, she translated, composed, and performed in a collaborative multi-media project, “Ask Hafez,” supported by the Queens Council on the Arts. Like the poems she translates, Gafori’s voice is timeless, and her offerings are perhaps best observed or listened to. We invite you to find a quiet space to sample one of them here. Please join us in conversation with this gifted poet and musician who infuses new vitality into ancient love and wisdom.
If we look at the transtheoretical model of change, in the first stage you are not aware at all that a change is even needed. Then, we move into a state of pre-contemplation as the rumblings are growing louder. Next, we have the contemplation phase where you are actively thinking of making. a change. Finally, you get to a stage where you are actually ready to make a plan and change. All of those steps are part of the change process and anywhere you are on that path you have to honor the change you're in. - Eric Zimmer Are You Stressed Out Lately?

The One You Feed 500th episode: Feeding Your Good Wolf with Listeners of the Show!! Power Quotes From The Show Shifting Your Mindset with Self-Love "I both prevent and treat depression with self-love. However, self-love is not something that we can just flip a switch on. It takes time even years to develop a deeper self-love practice with yourself. When it comes to preventing depression with self-love, it's really about not allowing myself to get locked in ruminative states where my brain swirls round and round especially self-critical thoughts. For treating depression, I work on recognizing and stopping shameful thought patterns like "I shouldn't feel this way," or "I shouldn't get depressed," because those can really take over in my mind." - Eric Zimmer Be On Your Own Side "Being on your own side is not about being right in an argument or anything like that but always wanting the best and healthiest thing for yourself. I always want to support myself and have my own back. That is a really powerful place to come from for self-love and personal development growth." - Eric Zimmer Why You Shouldn't Resist Negative Emotions "How do I befriend my negative emotions, not ostracize them, and create a healthier relationship with them? When we see greed, anger, or hatred as only bad, it's like cutting off a part of ourselves sometimes. What you resist persists and if you're fighting against these negative emotions all of the time in a sense you're engaging with them in a very strong way. Not resisting them so much can be much more helpful as you observe and move through them." - Eric Zimmer Links From Today's Show Eric Zimmer The One You Feed Podcast W+W 320 Eric Zimmer: The One You Feed 437 Josh Trent | Death & Rebirth: Why I'm Saying Goodbye to Wellness Force… Dr. Joe Dispenza Serenity Prayer OMOS: On My Own Side by Dr. Aziz Gazipura Eric's Spiritual Habits Program The Tiny Book of Essential Wisdom - Forrest Landry Dr. Gabor Maté BJ Fogg PhD Charles Duhigg 388 Dr. Jud Brewer | Unwinding Anxiety The One You Feed 500th episode: Feeding Your Good Wolf with Listeners of the Show!!

Arthur Eddington was committed to testing Einstein's General Theory of Relativity during the 1919 Solar Eclipse, not only to remove all doubts about the theory but also to demonstrate the value of scientific internationalism. But the British Army was determined to send him to the Front. Eddington faced the greatest challenge of his life: proving his opposition to violence and his dedication to science were both a matter of conscience. Conscientious objectors in Britain could be sent to prison if their claims were rejected by local tribunals. Many were sent to solitary confinement, while others were put to hard labor. This prisoner is standing on a stool to get a glimpse of the sky. Some COs were subjected to field punishment. Field punishment was introduced in 1881 following the abolition of flogging in the Army--so I guess that's a good thing? The punishment was applied to soldiers who disobeyed orders, which included COs who had been denied official status and continued to refuse to fight. Men would be tied up to a fixed object for up to two hours a day. Conscientious objectors were despised by the general public and often mocked in political cartoons. In this image, as in many, COs were depicted as unmanly cowards--as "sissies" with a major dose of homophobia. Einstein's General Theory of Relativity describes space as curving in response to the mass of heavy objects. The amount of the curvature depends on the mass of the object, so the Sun will cause greater curvature than the Earth. The Earth orbits the Sun because it is caught in the well of the Sun's gravity. One of the problems with most explanations of relativity theory, including my own, is that they imply that massive objects sit on top of space. In fact, they existing within space. This graphic tries to represent this concept. Eddington arranged for two expeditions to view the 1919 eclipse. One went to Sobral in northern Brazil and the other to Príncipe in the Gulf of Guinea. Príncipe is a gorgeous tropical island with misty mountains and white beaches. Eddington was amazed at the lush landscape and tropical fruits; he ate about a dozen bananas a day. Some fifteen years before Eddington arrived, the world learned that the cocoa plantations in Príncipe, which primarily supplied Cadbury's Chocolate, were worked by enslaved laborers kidnapped from Angola. The Portugese government promised to stamp out the practice, but political instability meant that these efforts received little attention. It is unclear in 1919 if Eddington saw free or enslaved laborers at work. Northern Brazil, meanwhile, had been struck by a devastating drought in 1915 that killed hundreds of thousands of people. Many of those who survived fled the region, but the government feared they would cause instability if they arrived in Brazil's cities. What can only be called concentration camps were established and people were forced to live in them, as seen here. The drought was beginning to lessen in 1919, but the region was struggling. The eclipse observation teams arrived with telescopes, cameras, glass photographic plates, developer chemicals, motors, clocks, waterproof tents and more. Here you can see the set up in Sobral. The light from the Hyades had been traveling about 153 years when it reached Eddington's telescope. Scientists now know that at least one of the stars within the cluster has three planets, one roughly the size and composition of the Earth. It is considered unlikely any advanced life exists on the planet, but anything is possible. This is one of Eddington's original photos of the eclipse. It has been scanned, and the stars that he was measuring are circled and labeled. You can see that the stars are incredibly dim and hard to spot even when pointed out. The announcement by Eddington and Dyson caught the world's attention and newspapers struggled to make sense of the discovery. The Illustrated London News did a fairly good job of explaining what the astronomers were looking for. The New York Times, on the other hand, was more bombastic that clear. I can only imagine readers were perplexed by this announcement, which seems at pains to tell everyone that (a) no one understands what has happened but (b) you don't need to worry about it. I suppose with everything else going on, readers did like having that reassurance. The bit about "A Book for 12 Wise Men" refers to a story that circulated widely at the time. Supposedly, Einstein had gone to a publisher about writing about book about his theory, but the publisher replied that since only about 12 wise men in all the world would understand it, there was no point in publishing. This story seems to have been completely made up but got a lot of traction in the years to come. (Also, apparently only men of science were more or less agog. No word on the women of science, who, while small in number, did exist.) Einstein made his first visit to Britain in 1921. He toured the United States first (a tour he found exhausting and "horrendous" because of all of the press attention) and then journeyed to the UK on his way back to Germany. In this image, he and his wife Elsa stand on deck during their journey. Einstein met Eddington for the first time on this trip, but I haven't found any photos of the occasion. Einstein made multiple visits to Britain over the years and often met with Eddington. Here the two men sit and talk in 1930. I don't know where this photo was taken, but I wonder if they are at Eddington's house in Cambridge. His sister Winifred found great joy in her garden. The Theory of Relativity as been confirmed and reconfirmed in the last 100 years. The distortion of light by large masses is well known today and described as "gravitational lensing." It has become an important tool in modern astronomy because it allows astronomers to study objects that are incredibly far away. It also provides a way to measure the mass of distant galaxies and therefore to estimate the amount of invisible dark matter within. You can read more about this in the sources I've linked to below. This image shows one galaxy distorted into a ring that appears around a galaxy positioned directly in front of it. Here is another example of lensing. The blue curve is the light of a galaxy located behind the bright yellow galaxies, its light distorted by their mass. This amazing image from the Hubble telescope shows multiple examples of lensing. The stretched out and arced lines of light are distorted images of far-away galaxies. Some galaxies might even appear more than once as their light is split and sent along different paths. Eddington could have had no idea how dramatic the effects of lensing could be, or how important they are for modern astronomers. I hope you will take the time to watch this video of Neil Gaiman reading his poem about Arthur Eddington. (The actual poem begins at about 4:18.) You can also read along on the Brain Pickings website. (https://www.brainpickings.org/2019/10/29/in-transit-neil-gaiman-eddington/) Warning, there is one NSFW word in the poem, but I think you all can handle it. It captures so much about Eddington--his passion, his reticence, his brilliance, and, perhaps, his desperate need to keep hidden one essential part of his identity, his homosexuality.

An analysis of the world's most successful, passionate, and driven people reveals that starting with your why is the way to unlocking your deepest, most long-lasting inspiration and motivation. In this episode, we also discuss the critical importance of sleep in your emotional and physical well-being. To quote Maria Popova, a writer who's best known as the curator of Brain Pickings, “We tend to wear our ability to get by on little sleep as some sort of badge of honor that validates our work ethic. But what it is is a profound failure of self-respect and of priorities.” In this episode, we give you easy to implement, practical tips to optimize your sleep habits and to take your focus, energy, and wellbeing to the next level.

A student once asked the Buddha: “Are you a god?” He responded, “no.” “Are you a regular person, then?” He responded, “no.” “What are you?” He responded, “I am awake.” In The Way of the Pilgrim, a story about a Christian Monk, the only instruction he receives from his teacher is to pray without ceasing. When we practice mindfulness, our instruction is to be awake without ceasing. In a recent newsletter, Maria Popova of Brain Pickings {http://brainpickings.org} wrote of fall and impermanence as a time that “reminds us to cherish the beauty of life not despite its pershability but because of it.” When we think of the element of devotion within a mindfulness practice, it is all of this and more. It can be a practice of prayer. It is a practice of awakening. Devotion appears in many forms but all of them share the thread of love. Devotion within our practice is an inherent quality as we grow our awareness of connection, compassion and everyday beauty. In today's episode of The Mindful Minute, we are wrapping up our series on Discipline & Devotion with a deep dive into what it means to practice devotion within our meditations.
