Today we're joined by our friend James Lindsay to discuss a few hot-button topics in the news. First we talk about Dylan Mulvaney's Budweiser sponsorship and its fallout. James explains why corporations are so obsessed with "inclusion" and what's on the line for them if they don't comply with ESG overlords. Then, we look at the United Nations' new report that calls for the decriminalization of all sexual activity (including pedophilia). Of course, this makes complete sense when you look at the consistent and ever-growing grooming culture among the Left. We talk about why the Left always seems to default to this and how the Right should respond. We also cover a Washington bill that would allow the state to provide sanctuary for children whose parents don't consent to transgender "treatments" or abortions. --- Timecodes: (02:33) Dylan Mulvaney Bud Light sponsorship & ESG (28:04) U.N. calls for decriminalization of all drug use and sexual activity (45:30) Washington bill to allow medical transgender interventions on minors without parental consent --- Today's Sponsors: A'Del — go to adelnaturalcosmetics.com and enter promo code "ALLIE" for 25% off your first order!

This is not yet clear to a lot of people: in 2023, our job is to help our families, friends and neighbors survive the cultural revolution with our relationships with God healthy and intact. The Lord is with us in this, He will not leave our side if we won't keep and practice our faith. We must go back to the very basics of what God thinks, how He acts and what He prescribes for our lives and today, we talk about that. Survival is the job, the Bible has the job description. The enemy has taken too much ground for us to think otherwise and, remember, we have already won. Some of the enemy's soldiers: A so-called children's author (read: destroyer of kids) says it right out loud, the goal is to capture the minds and souls of kids from the moment they are born. This is why many of us have been screaming for people to either be in their kid's schools every single day or get their kids out of government schools. The enemy has well-funded his ruthless and shrewd human army. The NY Post is the first mainstream media outlet I have seen report on the Human RIghts Campaign, a group run by hugely rich, deeply perverted men who have made queering kids their life mission: Inside the CEI system pushing brands to endorse celebs like Dylan Mulvaney. We have been talking about these people since 2018. I have yet to hear a brave, stalwart Republican in D.C. utter the name of the Human RIghts Campaign founders, even as their work at twisting minds bares more vile fruit. Reports circulating that Kentucky shooter is bank employee with “He/Him” pronouns in bio… Kelly King, an Assistant Superintendent in Glendale CA Unified is deeply concerned about male coaches watching teenage girls undress in the locker rooms. When I say “concerned”, I mean Kelly is comcerned and upset that male coaches DO NOT WANT to have teenage girls undressing in front of them. Kelly explains she tells these men, over-and-over-and-over again about these naked girls “It's not a girl! It's not a girl. It's not a girl!” A father addressed this at a school board meeting. Guess how the board responded . . . What does God say? 2 Timothy 3:1-17 But understand this, that in the last days there will come times of difficulty. For people will be lovers of self, lovers of money, proud, arrogant, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, heartless, unappeasable, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not loving good, treacherous, reckless, swollen with conceit, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having the appearance of godliness, but denying its power. Avoid such people. ...Colossians 2:8-23 See to it that no one takes you captive by philosophy and empty deceit, according to human tradition, according to the elemental spirits of the world, and not according to Christ. For in him the whole fullness of deity dwells bodily, and you have been filled in him, who is the head of all rule and authority. In him also you were circumcised with a circumcision made without hands, by putting off the body of the flesh, by the circumcision of Christ, having been buried with him in baptism, in which you were also raised with him through faith in the powerful working of God, who raised him from the dead.Author & Host of Rainbow Parenting. Creator of @queerkidstuffMeet Kelly King, Asst. Superintendent in Glendale CA Unified. “We have male coaches who are horrified at the thought of having a biological girl changing clothes in front of them… It's not a girl. It's not a girl. It's not a girl. You only have boys in the boys locker room.”Jordan Henry, the father who spoke out against Kelly Keing actively working to queer kids. “Last night I spoke at Glendale Unified against Kelly King who admits to forcing female students to change in front of male coaches. The board tried and failed to shut me down by accusing me of attacking King personally, even though King clearly violates the personal privacy of minors and families. These people will defend the unethical actions of a corrupt government employee while silencing the voice of concerned parents, all in the name of inclusivity. Remember, Kelly King makes $250k+ per year while GUSD has abysmal math and reading proficiency. See her proudly admit to each issue I raised in my tweet below.

If you're like most of us, you are not getting the answers you need and remain confused and pretty hopeless to ever feel like yourself Again. As an ob gyn, I had to discover for myself the truth about what creates a rock solid metabolism, lasting weight loss, and supercharged energy after 40, in order to lose a hundred pounds and fix my fatigue, now I'm on a mission. This podcast is designed to share the natural tools you need for impactful results and to give you clarity on the answers to your midlife metabolism challenges. Join me for tangible, natural strategies to crush the hormone imbalances you are facing and help you get unstuck from the sidelines of life. My name is Dr. Kyrin Dunston. Welcome to the Hormone Prescription Podcast. (01:12): Hi everyone. Welcome back and thank you so much for joining me today for the podcast. So glad that you're here, my guest, you are gonna love and be inspired by her. She has a powerful story and you know it's a shame that sometimes our purpose comes from our pain and sometimes that's where the greatest gifts come from. If we say yes to the call, to the invitation of the pain, to lean into it and find the answers, when we get those answers, we can then bring them back to our tribe, all of you and me, to help them overcome similar struggles and improve our health. I think that almost every doctor and healer that I've had on the podcast has a journey of pain that led to some breakthrough that caused them to seek new answers. And then that's what they're doing here is bringing them back to the tribe, which is kind of brave and revolutionary. (02:11): So I think you're gonna really love my guest today. I know I did after meeting her and speaking with her. So I'll tell you a little bit about her and then we'll get started. But first, the title of the episode is Joy is Your Justice. And I know some of you are like, do I wanna listen to this? What am I gonna get out of this? What does this have to do with my health and my hormones? Well, she's gonna tell you because she too brings the science and that's why I love the incredible guests that I have on the podcast. Cause they bring the science that brings the truth and then you can just cut through the nonsense and know what's true about your health that you're not hearing elsewhere. So I'll tell you a little bit about Dr. Tanmeet Sethi. She's a medical doctor and board certified in integrated family medicine. (02:59): And she spent the last 25 years on the front lines locally at globally practicing primary care and trauma work with the most marginalized communities as a mother. She's received the impossible news that her youngest son named Zin, has a fatal degenerative disease. She weaves together the expertise of both acquired knowledge with lived experience and translates them accessible through the blend of ancient spiritual traditions and modern neuroscience. She's also trained in psychedelic medicine. We're gonna have her back another time to talk about that cuz that's a whole episode in itself. Also, she's trained in integrative and functional medicine, and she's a clinical researcher of psilocybin at the University of Washington. And she has a wonderful TEDx talk on gratitude. So please help me welcome Dr. Tanmeet Sethi to tell you why joy is your justice and why you need to reclaim yours now to improve your health and many other things. Welcome Dr. Tanmeet.  (04:07): Thank you so much. I'm so happy to be here. (04:09): I'm really excited to have you. We had Dr. Ellen Vora on and she was amazing and lovely, and she recommended having you on and told me all about you, and I said, yes, absolutely, please. And I know you have a book that you're getting ready to publish, and so it was kind of challenging to get it set up, but I'm so glad that you're here. Thank you for joining us. (04:37): Oh, thanks. I'm so excited to really spend some time with you and your listeners. (04:42): And the first question I have to ask you is, as a physician, how did Joy become the topic for your book? (04:53): Yeah, well, there are a couple of different reasons. One is that as a primary care physician for the last 25 years, I've really found that a lot of what I do is really managing spiritual needs in the exam room. People really feeling lost and disconnected and feeling like they've lost meaning in their life, and also managing all the physical symptoms related to stress and really trying to help them navigate how they refined meaning and joy in their lives so that they can actually have a better quality of life. And so that was an ongoing theme in my visits as an integrative physician, I do a lot more counseling around lifestyle and spirituality than most docs do. And so I was really doing a lot of that. And then on top of that, you know, something happened in my own life that was really tragic, which is that my second child was diagnosed with a fatal disease. (05:50): So he has Duchenne muscular dystrophy, which is for your community, is like an a l s for children. So it's degenerative and fatal. And he was diagnosed when he was three and while I was pregnant with my third child. And so I really had a really big milestone in my life where I realized that as doc who had been practicing and advocating for patients and doing a lot of social justice activism in the community, that this was finally something I couldn't really fight against. There was no cure, there was no hope. It felt like, and I really had a point where I realized how am I going to truly have joy in this life? You know, sure, I can fake it or I could function, or I could, as people were saying, think positive, which really drives me crazy, which you'll read about in my book. But I finally had to figure out how do you hold joy when you have something that is completely unchangeable? And that really was an ongoing theme for a lot of my patients who are managing trauma, oppression and suffering. And so it really culminated in my personal and professional lives. (07:02): Yes, I'm sorry to hear about your child having that. And I can imagine that reaching for joy and figuring out a way to do that is al almost, it's a spiritual practice. And that I know having worked with patients clinically for many years, that it's not so much the physical ailments, but I actually was hearing Dr. Gabo matte, I love him, talk about instinct, the myth, myth of normal the other day, and the statistics on really that all physical illness is emotional, spiritual, mental, it, all of it, almost a hundred percent right? Except for the, the less than 5% of genetic disorders. And the fact that mainstream medicine completely, almost completely, let's say, ignores this fact in this day and age is, is really a travesty and does a disservice. So I want everyone listening to know that all of you should be treated not just your physical body. And there are clinicians out there who can work with you on that life, Dr. Tanmeet. So you had a tragedy and were trying to figure out how to find joy. And so what were the steps that you took to figure that out? (08:25): Yeah, . Well, I feel like that's the whole book, right? Is all the tools I used. But what I would say is that what I really, just to give everyone a sense of how it all started is that I think it really started with one really big milestone question, which was right after Zin was diagnosed, and I talk about this in the book, is that my husband and I were sitting there kind of going through the expected and normal, why me, why us? Why him? Why, why, why? Feeling unfair, feeling like we didn't deserve it, feeling like there was no way out, which is what we all say, why me to everything, right? Whether it's traffic in the morning or it's a devastating diagnosis, right? And it's natural. It feels like how could this happen? But there was a pivotal moment there where we looked at each other, and we still can't remember who said it first, but we said, why not us? (09:22): Why, why not him? Why not us to lead this life and still find joy and meaning. And also you can see how, why me is a very victim, powerless role. Mm-Hmm. , you can feel your body even contract and hunch when I even remember saying that. And when I say, why not me? My body opens up, I feel expansive, I feel powerful. And it defeats all those really kind of ridiculous, if you think about it, ideas of why me? Because it kind of insinuates that tragedy comes to those who deserve it. You know that why me as I deserve this, when you realize that bad things just happen, bad, bad, bad things happen. And it's not because we deserved it. It's not cuz we did wrong or did bad, it's because we're human and we're leading this human life. And why not me opens us up to also the humanity of all of us who are suffering and managing that which we cannot understand. (10:25): And so that was really the beginning of this journey, I was really saying, why not us? Why not us to teach all of our children that life does not need to be dictated by the length of our lives or the dreams that were now shattered that we had conceived of, that he would play sports or go to college, or, you know, have a family, kind of the general things we think of and why not open ourselves up to the dreams that can be created once we let that go. And once we did that, it's not that it was easy, let me tell you, it wasn't an easy journey. Joy isn't an easy practice, but it is actually quite simple. And every day, if you commit to it as a healing practice, it becomes a way of life instead of a destination to get to. I (11:13): Love that you, you turned it around to why not us. And I've heard people say that, and it's by no means on the same level, but even just this morning, the airline ripped apart my luggage and I just, I went to pick it up, the carousel and the whole handle that, that you're supposed to drag it with on wheels just came flying out and it was a big gaping hole. And I was like, oh, that's interesting. And I've seen people spin out about a wheel getting broken on their luggage, and I just, it's not worth it. It's just luggage. It's different when you're talking about human life. And so I think it's, it's such a testament to you and your husband's fortitude, insight, openness to be able to make that pivot with such rapid pace. And I know that you talk about the crucial distinction between joy and happiness, and yes, people sometimes will say, well, I just wanna be happy. I just wanna be happy. What is the difference? (12:12): Oh, it's so big. It's really so big. And I'll tell you, I was much happier before my son Zubin was diagnosed. But I am way, way more joyful now. So I'll tell you the difference is that happiness is a cognitive evaluation. It's a sense of how things are going, and it's attached to outcome. I will tell you, there's nothing, let me preface this by, there's nothing wrong with happiness. The more the better, right? It's a pleasurable feeling. Mm-Hmm. . So I'm not discounting that happiness is wrong or bad, but there is a difference because happiness being attached to an outcome and how things are going, keeps it in the brain. Also, it's a very mind, head, heady kind of feel, experience. I shouldn't say feeling. And joy on the other hand, is a deep embodied feeling. My, one of my favorite quote quotes is actually from Rumi, who says, when you do things from your soul, you feel a river moving in. (13:07): You are a joy. Because joy is that deep, deep primal experience that no one can take care of us, take away from us. Happiness is, you can think of it as being given to you because it's attached to those things and that outcome. And they're all good like jobs or families or whatever. But joy is something no one can take away if you really dig deep down into the core of your body. And that's what a lot of the practices in the book explain that if you can lightly step into your body exactly where the pain lives, you can access joy. Because joy actually draws on the same deep well as your pain and as meaning in your life. So if you can really meet your pain with love and acceptance, you can actually feel a joy like you've never felt before. And so really, I also wanna just tell people, I feel this very strongly. (14:07): I'm someone who's worked with marginalized communities for my whole life. I myself experienced racism throughout my childhood, death, threats for my family, all kinds of things. I'm also still a brown woman who looks like a terrorist family to everyone in this country. You know, that kind of thing lives on. And at the same time, I have the right, not just to suffer as a human, but to live with joy. And so joy is my act of resistance. It lives in my body, and every time I access it, I'm actually boldly saying to things that have taken my power away, that you may have done that. But I still stand here and I still rise despite that. (14:47): It is so powerful when you, you, some of the things you just said, I get got chills all the way through my legs, that joy draws from the same deep well as your pain. And that's so powerful. And joy is something no one can take away. And happiness Yeah. Is given to you by things. I'm happy because things are working out the way I want. But are you joyful? You know, even if you have a cancer diagnosis on your way to the doctor, are you enjoying the people that you meet and the sunrise and the trees? And I watched the movie Soul from Disney recently. I don't know how I missed that one. I (15:22): Haven't seen that. (15:23): And oh, it was amazing. A friend recommended it this weekend. And it basically is about exactly what we're talking about, finding the joy in a leaf, falling off a tree onto the ground, finding the joy in the simplest of things. And you're right, no one can take away your right, your ability, your desire to, I see it as a gratitude practice, really. Yeah. Because you're appreciating these small parts of your day in the now, and that can tap into the joy of just being alive. (16:02): Right. And there's another big difference, and you can feel, it seems so simple, but it's hard to see it until I could see it, right? Is that happiness feels very binary. So people think, if I'm sad, I can't be happy, and if I'm happy, then I don't, you know, I'm not sad. So it's very binary. And so it is a way because of the confusion between happiness and joy. People feel joy is binary, but it's not because the thing is, joy actually acknowledges all the pain, the sadness, the grief, the, the hard and all joy is not a solution. It's not a binary, I am joyful or I'm not. It's a way to hold everything. So I can be deeply sad in one moment about, I'll take, give for example, my son. You know, things aren't so, it's not like it's easy. He's actually declining steadily. (16:53): It's getting harder and harder. And I have grief every day, things that we lose every day. And I can be deeply sad about that. And in the same moment, I can feel joyful that I'm alive and can feel that sadness and that I'm so, my humanity has not been stripped away from me. Because one thing that trauma, oppression and suffering do is strip our humanity away and make us numb to life in general. And if I can feel the joy of that leaf falling, the walk, the fresh air in the same moment that I'm crying about my son, then I have won. You (17:31): Sure have you really have. And I think we can get so tied into the, the purpose of our existence is this materialistic. I've got more stuff, I've accomplished more things. I win, I'm happy as, and anyone who's done the things and earned the money knows that doesn't bring joy. Usually . It's not what happens. And so I've heard people say we all have, well, you should look on the bright side. Yeah. Find the silver lining to the cloud. And you say that that's not going to bring joy. Can you talk a little bit about that? (18:08): Yeah. And it's actually one of the big reasons, you know, I mean, my book is really about joy in this whitewashed wellness world of these contrived positivities, this toxic speak of look on the bright side. I mean, you can't think yourself on the bright side of oppression and poverty. Come on, give me a break. Right? You can't think yourself on the bright side, out of deep hate and racism. I mean, this just doesn't work. It doesn't work. So, you know, people get your mind on straight, you know, that's easy for someone with a lot of privilege, but not for someone who's either in a marginalized community in poverty or, I mean, I could name all the things, right? What I really talk about is how that kind of toxic positivity actually is so harmful. I think it's dangerous because what it does is it doesn't let you be seen, right? (18:59): So anytime that I'm really sad, of which there are many, many, many moments, , and someone says to me, at least you have, oh, I mean, the amount of time at least you blah, blah, blah. Oh, I can't imagine. You know, they go on and on about they're trying to be good. Really they are. I have empathy for them, they just don't know what to say. But every time they do that, no one's acknowledging that I'm angry or sad or frustrated, and that's all I need to feel in that moment. And actually, a true joy practice is feeling what you feel and then allowing that to move through you. There's good science I talk about in the book that shows that if you suppress those feelings, you actually activate your threat centers more. And so we think, look on the bright side, just push that away. (19:50): But actually we're stimulating all those threat centers in our amygdala, in our limbic system, which then stresses our sympathetic nervous system out, which causes more cortisol release, which reeks havoc with our whole body. Right? Our hormones, as you talk about a lot, right? I mean, so brightness, looking on the bright side, toxic positivity, I feel is actually quite dangerous. I honestly will tell you, I never ever tried to cheer someone up. What I do is try to sit with them in their pain and hold them so they know that they're not alone. Because actually the isolation of sadness and grief is damaging. Right? And so when someone says, look on the positive side and you can't do it, what do you feel more excluded, more stressed out, more unseen (20:39): And ashamed. (20:40): Exactly. Exactly (20:42): Right. And we really do have this almost toxic avoidance of negative emotion, sadness, particularly for women. Anger, grief. We don't know how to grieve. We don't know how to be sad. And so I think that's what, when people wanna placate and say, oh, well look on the bright side is they're uncomfortable with their own grief and pain and sadness. So they can't sit with you in their, and I love what you're saying about how it affects your limbic system. And you know, everybody listening, I talk about hormones all the time, but one thing I can't talk about enough is that it's not a mind body connection, it's a body mind. You have a body mind, right? . Right. And it's psycho neuro endocrine immunology. Right? It's all one system. So you are affecting your hormones when you don't allow free flow of emotion. (21:37): Yes, exactly. Exactly. You're actually, you know you're actually getting more stuck in physically, energetically, and biochemically, and most of your listeners probably know this, but the more cortisol we make, the less we're able to make our reproductive hormones and manage our testosterone, estrogen, progesterone. I mean, all of those come from the same precursor as cortisol. So the more we're stressed out, right? And people will say, well, I can't change the stress. No, we can't change what's in our lives, but we can change how our nervous system receives it, and we can change how our body feels it. Right? And so it's why I'm sure you've experienced this many times clinically, but people will often tell, you know, I I manage a lot of symptoms that frankly don't get a diagnosis, right? Mm-Hmm. , I mean, there frankly not an answer. And so people will say you know, I just don't understand, I don't understand. (22:34): And I always say, what your mind and heart cannot resolve, your body will hold onto. And that's something to understand that it's not making it up. Your body is actually holding onto what you have been unable to navigate. And that doesn't mean that you were wrong or bad, it means you just needed more time. You, your, your nervous system does what it needs to do to protect you. It's a beautiful intricate system, but sometimes it serves us for too long, you know? And then we need to help our nerve, our nervous system, come to a different place. So it's really about joy as an ongoing practice. It's really, if you ask me, been underestimated and under really realized in this wellness world of that you just find joy. Have you found joy? Right? I found joy. It's, (23:29): I found it at the Walmart . Yeah. It's (23:32): Seeking joy every day, every time you can, because the more you swim in joy, the easier it is to hold the hard. And the more you swim and remember the joy and hold onto that, it reminds you that there are ways that you can come back to it. It's like a soothing mantra, right? It's not meant to be, I realize a destination, a place you get to like some nirvana land. So that's why I can say I cry a lot. I scream, I'm angry. I'm angry a lot. Let me tell you, this world is not easy. This world me off every day. The amount of violence in inequality, oppression, ongoing hate and division, it's really quite frustrating and stressful. Right? And at this, no matter what side, quote unquote, you're on, this is not about who's right and wrong, right? It's just, it, it is easy to suffer in this world. (24:31): That's what I would say. But my anger, or my stress, or my frustration around that is actually held by my joy. Because my joy allows me to feel all that and know that I'm also flowing in between that and gratitude, love, self-compassion, and my breath, you know, all and on and on. Mm-Hmm. . And so I just think that people need to understand that joy is really a revolution. It's not a place to get to. It's an ongoing act of resistance. And it's your way of actually boldly calling out to this world that you are actually good and you deserve to be here, (25:10): And you deserve to have grace and flow, and I'm gonna say happiness, but in the moment, the joy. Yes. Yes. Right? So what does that look like for you on a, on a day-to-day basis? I have a friend, and she shared with me something that she and her husband do every night at the end of the day before they go to bed with their pillow talk, is they ask each other, what was your favorite part of the day? What part of the day or what happening or thing in your day brought you the most joy? And they share that with each other. I (25:47): Love that. (25:48): So yeah, they don't do the gripe session, they ask mm-hmm. , you know, what brought you the most joy today? And I love that. How, what does it look like for you? (25:56): I'll tell you what it typically looks like, and I'm also gonna tell you, some days it doesn't look like this at all. I'm gonna be real with you. And then some days I forget to do things. Or some days right? It's just too hard. And those heart. And so I'll, I'll tell you what I do is that in the morning, I really try to commit, and it, it happens most mornings to sometime alone in the darkness of the morning. And in that time, I use breath and some movement to really help me come to my center. It's a time for me to check in with myself actually. And I tell people this, it's my form of resilience. I really don't like the way resilience is handed to us. And my form of resilience is to check in with myself and say, what do I need today to be who I need to be, be today? (26:43): And maybe that's more breath, maybe that's more exercise, and maybe that's none. Right? Maybe it's such a busy day that I just need to remind myself to breathe a little. I really check in with myself every day. I also do a gratitude practice at dinner with my family. So we do an up and a down and a grateful is what we call it. So what was our up of the day? What was our down? And that's the best way for me to find out what's really happening with my kids . And I think it also just models that sadness is there, things let us down, you know? It's okay. We don't need to brush them away. But I'll have some nights where, you know, one of my kids, mostly my son actually will say, I don't have a down. And I'll say, okay, you're, you don't have to have a down, but you have to have a grateful mm-hmm. (27:29): . There's just no way. You cannot leave this table without a grateful mm-hmm. . And, you know, and they never do. But those are the ways that we institute it in our family day-to-day. But it is much more insidious than that. So it's, you know, when I take a walk, I try to take at least a short walk every day outside so I can re sort of convene with some greenery and the fresh air. I live in Seattle, so that's challenging. But I try my best. And it is often just a simple feeling my feet on the earth and reminding myself how grateful I am that I got. One more day, I got a day where I got to walk outside my house. If it's been a very hard day, and I've done no gratitude practice, no breath, no movement. That's a rare day. But it happens where I've done none of that. (28:17): I go to bed at night, I close my eyes, I take a few breaths, and I do a little, I guess you could call it a prayer, but I do a little meditation to the river gods, I call them mm-hmm. . And I say, you know, I did not flow down this river the way I wanted to today. May I flow tomorrow in a different way? And I really just give myself that grace and that self-compassion. And so it really comes in just at all points of the day, something bad will happen, my luggage or you know, whatever, something bad will happen. I'll get upset, I'll get annoyed, I'll get stressed, and then I will come back to my breath or a walk or my gratitude practice pretty quickly, you know, and just use those as ways to hold them. It doesn't mean the sadness passes or the anger passes right away. It just reminds me that it's all okay. Mm-Hmm. , whatever I'm feeling. Does that make sense? (29:16): Absolutely. Absolutely. And I, I love those times of intentional practice at different times of the day that you're mentioning. For me, nature, it's all about nature. , the way the sun filters through the blinds or drapes, the way the trees sway in the wind. I mean, it's just the simple, oh, and birds. Birds so much (29:39): Fun. Oh, yes, yes, yes. So, I mean, there's so many ways, right? And I mean, you know, some days I could almost cry that hot water comes outta my faucet when I want . You know? And you know, you can really have awe at so many things in this world. And at the same time, you know, we can get swamped in our suffering, right? Because suffering, what it does is create such a narrow sliver we can't see past it, right? And it's all about these practices that I talk about are really about expanding ever so slowly, gently, that sliver so that you can see more. And really, joy practice is all about that. It's about seeing more. So yes, I'm angry, yes, I'm grieving, but can I just see a little more, can I see a little more today? And really, you'd be amazed at how that can change your life. (30:34): Yeah. I find that the more, more I appreciate, the more I get to appreciate more things come into my awareness. And you shared this quote from Alice Walker that I, I would love for you to talk about the grace with which we embrace life in spite of the pain. The sorrow is always a measure of what has gone before. Can you talk a little bit about what that means? (30:57): Yeah. I mean, the reason that quote means so much to me is that for me, it really embodies a very deep reverence I have for ancestral lineages. Hmm. So you know, I actually really feel strongly, there's actually studies to show and, and epigenetics and studies to show that trauma lives in our bodies, right? Mm-Hmm. the trauma that our ancestors have experienced lives in our bodies as well, and we can do things to change that. But just, I also think their re their persistence, their resilience lives in me. I also think that everything that my ancestors have gone through has helped shape who I am and has given me the privilege to be here on this earth. And I actually not only mean my blood lineage, which I, I have deep reverence for, but I mean my global ancestry. And so I think of everyone who has ever fought for justice and what they have taught me, that that is the reason I have the privilege to stand on this earth and fight for justice myself. (31:58): I think of everyone, all the mothers. Sometimes I just sit and do a meditation when I'm feeling very hopeless or sad, I do a meditation to all the mothers who have suffered before me and yet moved forward day in and day out. And I gain strength and love from them. And I say, I too have the privilege to stand here and do that. You know? So for me, the grace of, I mean, the ancestry of the land I live on was not my, is not mine, right? It, it was taken from people who toiled and tended, in my case, as the Duwamish people where I live, have still toil and tend to this land and yet get no equity. Right? And so everything I have the land I live on, the soul I inhabit, the ability and capacity I have to fight for myself and others is all a measure of the grace of those who have walked before me. Always. And if you think about it, that's a gratitude practice, right, too. (32:58): It is. And I, I think it's something that we don't think about that often most of us or talk about, but the, the idea that everything that we've received in this lifetime is standing on the shoulders of everyone who came before, I think. And, and I think having to be intentional about gratitude is necessary. I don't know that it's the default in, at least the way I was raised, it, it wasn't the default. And as I've gotten older, it's something that becomes more and more the default . It's like, oh my gosh, you know how much I have been given in this life, this human body, this ancestors who did all this hard work, and yes. Did they pass the trauma down? Yes. But they also passed a lot of other things down. (33:51): Right? And I will just give the caveat, because I think gratitude, you know, really becomes a contrived platitude. And, and actually people really get turned off whenever you say gratitude sometimes. Mm-Hmm. , because they say, well, I, I don't wanna be thankful right now. Like, that's contrived positivity, right? So I get a lot of questions around, how is it that you want me to be grateful right now? How can that be possible? And I, and I always say a couple of things. One is it's just an invitation. So really no one should feel forced to feel grateful again, that's not okay. Two, I actually, I did a whole TEDx talk on this. So it, you know, I feel very strongly about it, but I was taught by a mentor to thank my son for his disease and for this pain in my life. Now, I'll tell you, when she told me to go say thank you, Tim, every night after he went to sleep, I said, there's no freaking way I'm doing that. You know, like, how could a mother be thankful that her son is suffering and will not be here? That felt like blasphemy to (34:54): Me, right? Yes, I get that. And (34:56): At the same time, , you know, I was like, well, what the hell I got nothing else. And also, you know, this sucks. So I'm gonna try it. And I tried it. And that's what the Ted talk is about, is it opened me, I had never once in my life thanked any pain in my life, ever. And what happened for me after that was monumental, because thank gratitude is not about contrived positivity. It's about saying, here is what is, and here I am with it. It allows you to say thank you, means you actually face what's happening. You don't resist it. You don't say, I wish, wish it weren't happening. You say It is happening. It's horrible, it's tragic. It's actually the most devastating thing for me. And yet it's happening. I cannot change that. Now, when you look and face that you can have more clarity, you actually, there's neuroscience around this that you actually feel less threat. You dampen that threat center, you get more clarity in the parts of your brain that need that, and then you get compassion for yourself. It's, it's actually quite a intricate beautiful process. And then after that, you really understand that it's not the pain that I'm, I'm not thankful my son's suffering. That was contrite, that I thought that was trite, that I thought that was what she was saying. (36:23): Right? (36:23): It's that I'm thankful for the gifts that I now see despite the suffering, right? And so it's not that I don't believe in this. Everything happens for a reason. I actually don't believe that. I don't believe it's all good. You can find a silver lining. I don't believe that. What I believe is we have suffering and then we make meaning out of it. And that's what leads us to joy. And so my meaning is big, you know, my son. It is a constant grieving process for us. And at the same time, I mean, I would not be who I am today. I would not be the teacher that I am. I would not be the physician I am, I would not be the mother that I am. I would not, my children have a deep sense of compassion and understanding in this world. I am not saying it's great, it happened, but it did happen. And now what can I make out of that? Mm-Hmm. . Because none of us deserve pain or suffering, but we all deserve the right to make meaning and joy out of it. (37:27): And I guess that is the ultimate justice, right? Yes. What, yes, exactly. What could destroy you, you're going to turn and churn and use to support your joy in this life. I think that is the ultimate justice. And I know that you talk about how the vagus nerve creates a literal link between joy and justice. How does that work? Well, (37:52): The vagus nerve, as many people might know, is the main nerve of our parasympathetic nervous system. And a vagus comes from the Latin for wandering. So it wanders from the base of our brainstem all the way through our chest to the deepest organs of our gut. And there's more traffic from the vagus nerve to the brain than the reverse. And what that really means is that our nervous system is giving us information constantly. Our body is giving us information. And so it's not about changing your thoughts or making life, right, because you think it's right. It's about noticing that if you can settle more comfortably in your body, more peacefully in your body by activating your vagus nerve. And there's a vast amount of ways that I describe that, and I'm sure people have heard about meditation doing that and so forth. The more you can calm your body through your vagus nerve, the more information you can send to your brain about how to interpret and translate this life as one of justice. The more you can stand boldly in this world and say, I am peaceful and calm in my skin and I'm here to stand up and be here in this world other, rather than contract it powerless, oppressed all the time, right? The bo the world will continually oppress us, will continually try to strip our power away. And the way to take our power back is in our body, period. I just really believe that. (39:22): Yes, I agree. And the parasympathetic nervous system and hormones are intricately linked together, like you mentioned cortisols. Do you wanna tie that in for everyone so they get a really clear picture of what, when they're not in joy and they're not in gratitude and appreciation and they're in that victim mentality, how that affects the nervous system and the hormones? (39:46): Yeah. So there's different hormones. There's the neurological hormones of serotonin, dopamine, oxytocin and so forth. And then there's the reproductive hormones, right? A progesterone, estrogen. And there's different ways that it does that. One is, as we described, that the stress hormones go down. And so then we can put more energy into making our reproductive hormones. It's why people, you know, people will say like, oh, you don't have a libido cuz you're stressed out and people will think that's all in your head. It's actually not. You cannot, you know, I had a patient once where, you know, we looked and I showed her, you know, with testing to show her her hormones, what we were saying, I said, look like there's no juice here. Like there's just no juice, right? Like, how would, it's not your fault that you don't wanna have sex. It's your body saying, we don't have time for sex. (40:35): We're trying to take care of danger. Right? And so there's this intricate relationship between our nervous system and our hormones. There's also an intricate relationship between our serotonin and dopamine and oxytocin. The more you practice these tools that calm your vagus nerve, the more you stimulate dopamine, which brings reward into the brain and asks us, it puts us, you actually said this in the beginning, I thought about it when you said this, that the joy builds on itself. The neuroscientists actually called a spiral of joy. The more you notice, acknowledge and swim in the joy, the more dopamine is secreted to remind you to want it again, to look for it again. The more you do these practices of gratitude, self-compassion, et cetera, the more you produce oxytocin that makes you want to connect and tend to not only others but yourself, right? Mm-Hmm. . And so there are ways that our vagus nerve and our nervous system are the main regulators of every way that actually leads us to wellbeing. All the things people talk about, all the medications, all the practices, they start right there. I would imagine many of your listeners are very much wanting to feel more energy, feel more alive. (41:57): Yes. (41:59): , right? (41:59): Yes. I mean people, women, there's such an epidemic of, I hear this so many times, I've lost my joy and I don't know how to get it back. I don't have the joy. I mean, sure, there're what I call midlife mayhem. The 60 or so symptoms that women start experiencing once they hit 40 and above, sometimes in the thirties. And they're those physical complaints. But the result, and I guess it's compounded because the hormonal poverty is what I call it that they go into and that includes neurotransmitter poverty. Cuz neurotransmitters are, were intimately, they're brothers and sisters to hormones. Yes. Is that there's no joy. (42:40): Yes. Yes. I love that description. Hormonal poverty. I'm gonna remember that one. I love that. And I also love it because what we don't realize is that it's such a form of justice when we can replenish those hormones as well. Now we don't, I'm not saying everyone can solve all their problems with tools, mind, body medicine tools, but you sure as hell can help them and sometimes solve them. So you really just reminding people when they say, I can't find the joy. I would say, you know, it's time to step into your body. It's time to get back into your body out of your head and into your body so your body can mind your mind. Right. I mean, , I think it's more like you said, body mind than mind body. It's just, you know, Bessel VanDerKolk has well established this concept that trauma lives in our body. Mm-Hmm. and I actually, you know, I explain to people all the time, patients and people I work with in trauma groups, that trauma lives in the body. But that's also where it can heal. Understand that, that you actually need to get into your body to heal it. And so we need to do certain practices to step back into our body. It's not just thinking ourselves out of everything. In fact, only that will not do it. (44:01): Right. I love this conversation and I'm gonna encourage everyone to get the book. We'll put all of your links in the show notes and I'm gonna have you share with everyone, and I agree with you. I just wanna be clear that neither one of us is saying that if you do a joy practice, you're gonna solve all your hormonal, neuroendocrine, immunologic health problems. But I say you have to do all the things. They're so tired of me saying that all the things , it's like a puzzle. And if you're missing any one piece, it won't work. So a joy practice, I would say is necessary but not sufficient. Without it, you'll never achieve what's possible. (44:40): Yes. Yeah. And I think that's the main thing to, you know, Brian Stevenson is one of my justice mentors. I don't know him, but he's my mentor from afar. He says hope is about seeing the unseen. And I really believe that he's really helped me feel that, you know, because he fights for against the prison slave system. Really? And I mean, what more, what could be more hopeless at times, right? Mm-Hmm. . And what he says is, the reason I can do this work is because I commit to seeing what cannot be seen. (45:13): Yeah. Isn't he the one who did the a Ted talk with something more views than he's like in the top 10 of all TED Talks? (45:20): I'm sure he is. His TED Talk's amazing . (45:22): Yeah. Right. Yes. So I think it's super powerful. I think your story is super powerful. Hopefully you're hearing what Dr. Theit is saying and if she can do it, we can do it. (45:38): Yes. Right. I'm not, I'm not special. Yeah, for (45:41): Sure. Yes. And how is your son Zubin doing? (45:44): You know, his spirit seems to get stronger the more his body breaks down is what I would say. But he is declining. Yeah. So we're in a hard place, (45:54): But I'm sorry to hear that. And, and in the same breath, it sounds like you have a powerful, grounded spiritual practice that will hopefully help. (46:05): Yeah, and I appreciate that and I would encourage everyone to really understand that. I get a lot of people who say, I can't imagine, you know, what you're doing or how you do this. And in on the days where I have the energy to not just say, okay, I'm walk away. I tell people, you know, I would urge you to imagine, I would say imagination is the bridge that you need to imagine my pain will allow you to become closer to yours. So saying I can't imagine is also not seeing what's possible. If I can do it, I'm only human, then you can do it too with whatever your pain is. So build bridges of imagination every chance you get. (46:44): That's so powerful. And as you were saying it, I'm thinking that's what the capacity of empathy is that you can imagine. Yes. And then you can be with someone in their pain and in their devastation. That's so powerful. Thank you so much for sharing that. Yes. And please tell everyone where they can get the book and where they can find out more about you and connect with you. (47:08): So the book is Joy is My Justice, and it's on every book Online seller or in your bookstores. Or you can go to my website, which is www.ceimd.com. I'll give you that link. Yeah. Okay. (47:23): Either we'll have it either show notes. All right. And on social media. (47:26): Yeah, I'm mostly on Instagram, so I, I love to connect with people there. So my handle's md, so yeah, that confined, please. I would love for people to tell me what their biggest takeaway is, and maybe let us both know and feel free to tag us, because I love hearing from people who are moved. And I mean, you know, I'm sure you felt this in your career, Karen, but story is medicine, right? And that's how we really connect to each other and how we also heal. So when I hear people how story moves them, it's really a healing practice for me too. And so I really would love for anyone to connect. (48:06): Yes, please do. And as we were talking, it was reminding me of, is it Rachel Naomi Reman at my grandmother's table? Who, yes. Is that the book? Yes. So if anyone's listening, also another second book to get is her book. It's Beautiful Stories. Yes. That will really warm your heart. And not in a cliche way, but in a soulful way. So definitely look, get joy as my justice and read it, but I'm excited for its release. And thank you so much for joining us today. (48:41): Oh, it was really an honor to be with you.

Today, I open with a reminder of the philosophy of Niccolo Machiavelli when training future rulers. To summarize, a wise ruler must think of a way to make the citizens need the state and that leader at all times and under all circumstances. He wanted rules to make the people dependent on the state (government), making them more easily controlled. The only way to make this work in modern society is to eliminate individual freedom and liberty. This goes back to the doctrine of Barack Obama to fundamentally transform our nation. We start with the president of France, Emmanuel Macron who, after meeting with Chinese president Xi Jingping, intimated that decoupling from the US Dollar may be better for the whole of Europe. Our ally wants to avoid being seen as nothing more than a blind follow of the US. This is our ally speaking! Russia and Iran were also meeting over the weekend, conspiring ways to weaken the US Dollar. Our enemies and allies are now both trying to achieve the same goal. Joe Manchin still cannot believe how the Inflation Reduction Act isn't being implemented properly. He still is lying to himself that the Act is going to bring back more manufacturing and energy independence to America. Instead, it's once again giving power and control over to China. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez believes in a two tiered system of governance. She said if a Federal court rules in a way the Administration does not like, simply ignore the court ruling. She once again believes the third co-equal branch of government is meant to be subservient to the Executive and Legislative branches. Remember during the trucker strike in Canada, I said to keep on eye on them as they are the Canary in the coal mine? That what happens in Canada is heading for the United States? Turns out there is a new bill being pushed called the 2SLGBTQI+ Protection bill. It will remove anyone's right to protest or free speech if someone in that community feels aggrieved or offended. And, right on cue, the Biden regime is deciding to blackmail states by altering the language for Title IX. Instead of being a law that allows women's extracurricular activities to be equally funded, Biden now wants to include the entirety of the alphabet community including men who think they are women. It's insidious and dangerous and needs to be fought. Riley Gaines is pursuing legal action against those who assaulted and attacked her on the campus of San Francisco State University. She was scared and is still concerned for her safety, but she feels she needs to keep fighting for women and their safety. Corporations are reaching out to the trans community to represent their brands. Why? Let me introduce you to the CEI score and it all circles back around to Barack Obama. The Corporate Equality Index overseen by the Human Rights Campaign whose current president is Kelly Robinson who previously worked as a political organizer for Obama's 2008 campaign. If corporations don't bow to the CEI score, they may find themselves the victims of the latest cancel-culture campaigns, assisted by their willing accomplices in the Legacy/mainstream media. Finally, for some levity, Jim Gossett gives us a wonderful parody of the old “Real Men of Genius” ad campaign for Bud Light.

Second jour de la visite au Maroc de la ministre française des Affaires étrangères et de l'Europe, Catherine Colonna, en vue de visite officielle au Maroc du président Macron, début 2023. Dans cette perspective, Catherine Colonna doit rencontrer aujourd'hui le ministre marocain des Affaires étrangères, Nasser Burita. Dans un entretien au quotidien marocain Le Matin, Catherine Colonna dit s'attendre à un entretien « très riche » avec son homologue marocain avec qui la ministre française des Affaires étrangères se dit « sur la même longueur d'onde ». La cheffe du Quai d'Orsay qualifie d'« exceptionnelle (…) au sens propre du terme » la relation franco-marocaine. La ministre française des Affaires étrangères rappelle ainsi qu'il y a « plus de 46.000 étudiants marocains en France – la première nationalité – et 46.000 élèves dans les établissements français au Maroc ! », mais aussi « plus de 1.000 filiales d'entreprises françaises au Maroc (…) qui génèrent près de 100.000 emplois directs ». Sur le sujet des visas, Catherine Colonna se réjouit que la France et le Maroc reviennent « à une pleine coopération consulaire ». Sur celui du Sahara, la ministre française assure dans le journal Le Matin que la position de la France « est claire et (…) constante. Nous soutenons le cessez-le-feu. Nous soutenons les efforts de médiation de l'envoyé personnel du Secrétaire général des Nations unies pour le Sahara, la reprise des négociations entre les parties en vue d'une solution juste et réaliste, et l'action de la Minurso pour prévenir les tensions sur le terrain et garantir la stabilité de la région (…) Quant au plan d'autonomie proposé par le Maroc en 2007 (…) c'est une position clairement favorable au Maroc (…) L'urgence, c'est de calmer les tensions, c'est d'éviter tout dérapage. Et le Maroc peut évidemment compter sur la France », dit encore Catherine Colonna au Matin. Les Walkyries de Wagner vont-elles chevaucher au Burkina ? Les mercenaires russes du groupe Wagner ont-ils ou vont-ils débarquer au Burkina Faso ? Leur présence, en tout cas, a été dénoncée officiellement par le président du Ghana voisin. Et au Burkina Faso, c'est plutôt le quotidien Aujourd'hui qui dénonce cette « charge inattendue » du président ghanéen qui accuse le pays des Hommes intègres de recourir aux services de la société paramilitaire russe Wagner pour l'aider à combattre les groupes djihadistes, et qui affirme qu'une mine aurait été offerte « en guise de paiement », a dit à Washington Nana Akufo-Addo, lors d'une réunion avec le secrétaire d'État américain Antony Blinken. Tout en rappelant que le président burkinabè a dit vouloir faire de la lutte contre le terrorisme son principal cheval de bataille, le capitaine Ibrahim Traoré « n'a pas annoncé son intention de rompre sa coopération avec la France et de se tourner vers la Russie malgré les appels lancés dans ce sens par ses partisans », souligne Aujourd'hui au Faso, même si les nouvelles autorités burkinabè « n'ont pas cependant exclu de collaborer avec Moscou dans la lutte antiterroriste », étant par ce quotidien ougalais rappelé que le Burkina Faso coopère avec la Russie « depuis longtemps ». « C'est un véritable pavé que le président ghanéen, Nana Akufo-Addo, vient de jeter dans la mare », enchérit son confrère Le Pays, c'est un « coup de tonnerre ». Et cet autre quotidien ouagalais de se demander si le Burkina Faso « ne court pas le risque de voir filer certains de ses partenaires européens et américains qui ne blairent pas Wagner qu'ils accusent d'être à l'origine d'exactions dirigées contre des civils dans les pays où il intervient ? ». Gbagbo non-inscrit ? La CEI sort du bois En Côte d'Ivoire, enfin, la Commission électorale indépendante se prononce sur les inscriptions de Laurent Gbagbo, Charles Blé Goudé et Guillaume Soro sur la liste électorale. A ce stade, elle les rejette. Dans un entretien au site Le Tam Tam Parleur, le président de la CEI évoque la perte de la qualité d'électeur de l'ex-président ivoirien, de son ex-ministre de la Jeunesse et de son ex-Premier ministre. Y rappelant les termes du Code électoral ivoirien, le chef de la CEI déclare : « C'est assez clair. On ne redevient (…) électeur (…) que lorsqu'on a été réhabilité ou lorsqu'on a bénéficié d'une loi d'amnistie ». A Abidjan, ce matin, le quotidien indépendant Soir Info complète et ajoute qu'il n'y aurait « pas de révision exceptionnelle en faveur des trois personnalités, (et ce même) si elles venaient à bénéficier d'une loi d'amnistie ». Etant notamment rappelé que, le 30 novembre dernier, l'ex-président Laurent Gbagbo avait procédé à son enrôlement sur ladite liste, et que Charles Blé Goudé avait ensuite fait de même, Soir Info, sur la foi des précisions de la CEI, écrit qu'ils « ne sont pas concernés par l'inscription sur la liste électorale. Le cas échéant, ils doivent se présenter au contentieux pour soumettre (leur) cas ».

Preventing perinatal HIV transmission is an important strategy for eliminating HIV. Historically, rates of perinatal HIV transmission were 25-40% without interventions, but advances in HIV research, prevention, and treatment have made it possible to reduce that risk to less than 1%. Despite this progress, many myths and misconceptions about HIV and pregnancy remain. In this episode, Dr. Antonio E. Urbina, Medical Director of CEI's HIV Primary Care and Prevention Center of Excellence, speaks with Dr. Andrés Ramírez Zamudio, Assistant Professor in the Department of Obstetrics, Gynecology and Reproductive Sciences and Department of Medicine, Division of Infectious Diseases, at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai. Drs. Urbina and Ramírez Zamudio discuss strategies for preventing perinatal HIV transmission more broadly. As well, they unpack some of the common myths and misconceptions to help destigmatize HIV in pregnancy.

Nella tempesta, come credenti abbiamo due possibilità: tacere, ed essere zavorra inutile, o proclamare Dio, e portare conforto e salvezza. Anche quando la tempesta è dentro di noi.---CLICCA SUL TITOLO PER ASCOLTARE IL MESSAGGIOTempo di lettura: 10 minuti Tempo di ascolto audio/visione video: XX minutiLa settimana scorsa abbiamo concluso con Giona nella città di Iafo  che pagava il biglietto per salpare verso Tarsis.Abbiamo detto che Giona lo faceva per due ragioni: il timore di andare in una città di omicidi e perché trovava troppo inquietante la misericordia che Dio  stava estendendo alla città di Ninive.Un breve riassunto visivo delle azioni di Giona può essere visto guardando una mappa. La città natale di Giona è Gat-Efer. Ninive è il luogo in cui Dio ha chiamato Giona a fare l'annuncio. La città portuale di Iafo (l'attuale Giaffa) è il luogo in cui Giona si reca a prendere la barca. La località dove Giona era diretto è Tarsis, probabilmente in Spagna. Giona sta letteralmente andando nella direzione opposta... il più lontano possibile.Che cosa fa il Signore a questo proposito?  Il Signore manda una tempesta. Leggiamo Giona 1:4-16"Il Signore scatenò un gran vento sul mare, e vi fu sul mare una tempesta così forte che la nave era sul punto di sfasciarsi. I marinai ebbero paura e invocarono ciascuno il proprio dio e gettarono a mare il carico di bordo, per alleggerire la nave. Giona, invece, era sceso in fondo alla nave, si era coricato e dormiva profondamente. Il capitano gli si avvicinò e gli disse: «Che fai qui? Dormi? Àlzati, invoca il tuo dio! Forse egli si darà pensiero di noi e non periremo».  Poi si dissero l'un l'altro: «Venite, tiriamo a sorte e sapremo per causa di chi ci capita questa disgrazia». Tirarono a sorte e la sorte cadde su Giona. Allora gli dissero: «Spiegaci dunque per causa di chi ci capita questa disgrazia! Qual è il tuo mestiere? Da dove vieni? Qual è il tuo paese? A quale popolo appartieni?»Egli rispose loro: «Sono Ebreo e temo il Signore, Dio del cielo, che ha fatto il mare e la terraferma». Allora quegli uomini furono presi da grande spavento e gli domandarono: «Perché hai fatto questo?» Quegli uomini infatti sapevano che egli fuggiva lontano dalla presenza del Signore, perché egli li aveva messi al corrente della cosa.  Poi gli dissero: «Che dobbiamo fare di te perché il mare si calmi per noi?» Il mare infatti si faceva sempre più tempestoso. Egli rispose: «Prendetemi e gettatemi in mare, e il mare si calmerà per voi; perché io so che questa gran tempesta vi piomba addosso per causa mia».  Tuttavia quegli uomini remavano con forza per raggiungere la riva; ma non riuscivano, perché il mare si faceva sempre più tempestoso e minaccioso. Allora gridarono al Signore e dissero: «Signore, non lasciarci perire per risparmiare la vita di quest'uomo e non accusarci del sangue innocente; poiché tu, Signore, hai fatto come ti è piaciuto».  Poi presero Giona, lo gettarono in mare e la furia del mare si calmò.  Allora quegli uomini furono presi da un grande timore del Signore; offrirono un sacrificio al Signore e fecero dei voti." (Giona 1:4-17)Quando si scatena la tempesta Giona sa perfettamente perché. Non è la prima tempesta che vediamo nelle Scritture; anzi, la Bibbia ne è piena. Il profeta Geremia ne aveva annunciata una:“Ecco, la tempesta del Signore! Il furore scoppia, la tempesta imperversa, scroscia sul capo degli empi.  L'ira del Signore non si placherà, finché non abbia eseguito, compiuto i disegni del suo cuore; negli ultimi giorni lo capirete appieno.” (Geremia 23:19-20)I marinai sono esperti di quel tratto di mare, e subito capiscono che non si tratta di una tempesta “normale”; nessuna nuvola, nessun vento, nessun temporale l'ha preceduta ed annunciata; è scoppiata così, all'improvviso.E' per questo che, invece di remare, di lascare la randa, o di fare altro per governare la nave, si mettono tutti a pregare.Si, ma quale dio pregare? Provenendo probabilmente da più parti del medio oriente ognuno ne aveva uno o più: quale era quello che si era adirato, e perché? “ È il dio del mare che è stato offeso?  O il dio dei marinai?  O il dio dei venti?  Era il tuo dio o il mio?” Alla fine, tanto vale pregarli tutti!Ma una cosa la fanno per governare la nave:  gettano il carico in mare:  era una mossa disperata,  perché in pratica stavano gettando in mare il motivo per cui sarebbero stati pagati una volta a Tarsis. Ma dovevano alleggerire la nave, innalzare la linea di galleggiamento per farla stare un po' più in alto nell'acqua,  in modo da avere meno possibilità  che le onde la sommergessero.E Giona dove è? Dov'è il profeta che sente la voce di Dio? Quello che sa esattamente qual è il Dio da pregare?  Dove si trova? Cosa sta facendo? Semplicemente, dorme beato! Agli occhi del capitano  che Giona non ci provi nemmeno.   è un atto di assoluto egoismo  e di totale disprezzo per tutti gli altri sulla nave Avrebbe dovuto essere sul ponte a pregare assieme a tutti gli altri... pregare il suo dio, non dormire beato!Guardate questi due versetti:“La parola del SIGNORE fu rivolta a Giona, figlio di Amittai, in questi termini: «Àlzati, va' a Ninive, la gran città, e proclama contro di lei che la loro malvagità è salita fino a me».” ( Giona 1:2)“Il capitano gli si avvicinò e gli disse: «Che fai qui? Dormi? Àlzati, invoca il tuo dio! Forse egli si darà pensiero di noi e non periremo». (Giona 1:6)In cosa si somigliano?  Nella frase “ALZATI!” Capiamo che Giona  è uno di quelli che preferisce NON fare... evitare, lasciare ad altri... Paolo parla di quelli come lui in Romani:“Ora, come invocheranno colui nel quale non hanno creduto? E come crederanno in colui del quale non hanno sentito parlare? E come potranno sentirne parlare, se non c'è chi lo annunci?” (Romani 10:14)Giona avrebbe potuto salire sul ponte, dire a tutti :”Un attimo, è inutile che preghiate a questi dei inesistenti: ora pregherò io il vero Dio, colui che può placare la tempesta!” Che testimonianza sarebbe stata? Quanti si sarebbero convertiti? Quanti avrebbero rinunciato ai falsi dei? Perché è vero, offrono un sacrificio a Dio... ma quale Dio? Un Dio che non conoscono, perché Giona,   ancora una volta, fugge.Due applicazioni per  noi.  La prima.Quando vediamo altri nel pericolo che invocano altri dei, preghiamo assieme a loro, indicandogli il vero Dio, oppure dormiamo? Attenzione, perché nei momenti di pericolo, noi abbiamo sì Dio...  ma spesso anche noi abbiamo una serie infinita  di altri piccoli dei accessori... Il danaro, la fama, il sesso, l'amico potente... tutte cose che pensiamo possano “aiutare”, se non sostituire il vero Dio.Come credenti siamo tenuti a salire sul ponte  dove tutti ci vedono, e ci guardano, e a dare testimonianza di quale Dio sia in controllo di tutto.La seconda. Ve la spiego con il versetto di Romani che viene prima di quello che abbiamo letto:“...perché, se con la bocca avrai confessato Gesù come Signore e avrai creduto con il cuore che Dio lo ha risuscitato dai morti, sarai salvato...” (Romani 10:9)Se abbiamo confessato con la bocca, e creduto col cuore, allora abbiamo libero accesso all'aiuto del Padre; si chiama: preghiera. Paolo afferma:“Non angustiatevi di nulla, ma in ogni cosa fate conoscere le vostre richieste a Dio in preghiere e suppliche, accompagnate da ringraziamenti.” (Filippesi 4:6)Ed ecco, Giona affronta  una situazione che ha bisogno di preghiera.  Giona si alza e va sul ponte... Ma mentre gli altri pregano...lui no.  Non c'è traccia di Giona che parla a Dio.Non cambia nulla quando non parliamo con Dio. Giona tace. La tempesta continua.  Viene quindi attuata una nuova strategia. Opinabile. Tirare a sorte. Ma Dio la usa per puntare il dito su GionaE inizia l'interrogatorio dei marinai per capire perché Dio ce l'ha con Giona: “Che tipo di lavoro fai? Da dove vieni? Qual è il tuo Paese? Di quale popolo sei?". Io me l'immagino come se a Giona piovessero addosso tutte le domande assieme, urlate nella tempesta. E Giona risponde a fatica:“Sono un ebreo.  Sono nato nella famiglia dell'alleanza di Dio  e godo della speranza di essere adottato come figlio di Dio.  Ho la legge, il culto del tempio  e promesse che non sono state date a nessun'altra nazione.  La mia terra è Israele,  la terra promessa da Dio come suo luogo. Adoro l'Eterno, il Dio del cielo, che ha fatto il mare e la terra.”I marinai erano contenti di prendere i soldi di Giona che stava scappando dal suo Dio... Ma adesso capiscono che Giona stava fuggendo da qualcosa di veramente importante, e anche se non conoscono quel suo Dio, lo temono, e lo incolpano: “Perché hai fatto questo?”  gli dicono.E' la stessa frase con cui Dio si rivolge ad Eva: (letteralmente la stessa nell'originale in ebraico):“Il Signore Dio disse alla donna: «Che hai fatto?». Rispose la donna: «Il serpente mi ha ingannata e io ho mangiato»” (Genesi 3:13 CEI)Eva credeva forse che Dio non avrebbe vista? Giona credeva forse che Dio non lo avrebbe seguito? Assurdo! Irrealizzabile!  Ma anche noi, talvolta... spesso...  facciamo lo stesso!Se vi è di conforto (per me lo è)  sappiate che siamo in buona compagnia... il grande re Davide è un nostro sodale:“Davanti a te ho ammesso il mio peccato, non ho taciuto la mia iniquità. Ho detto: «Confesserò le mie trasgressioni al SIGNORE», e tu hai perdonato l'iniquità del mio peccato.” (Salmo 32:5)Basterebbe che Giona si pentisse, ammettesse la colpa, pregasse chiedesse perdono,  e tornasse al Signore... ma non lo fa... Nel capitolo 4 leggeremo queste parole: "O SIGNORE, non era forse questo che io dicevo, mentre ero ancora nel mio paese? Perciò mi affrettai a fuggire a Tarsis. Sapevo infatti che tu sei un Dio misericordioso, pietoso, lento all'ira e di gran bontà e che ti penti del male minacciato.".(Giona 4:2)Giona aveva capito il piano di Dio; salvare Ninive... e non gli piaceva! trovava troppo inquietante  il pensiero della misericordia inattesa di Dio verso i Niniviti; non la voleva, non la accettava. quindi fugge, quindi rimane in silenzio.E Giona, da credente, da figlio di Dio ribellandosi tacendo, diventa “altro”.“I marinai ebbero paura e invocarono ciascuno il proprio dio e gettarono a mare il carico di bordo, per alleggerire la nave. Giona, invece, era sceso in fondo alla nave, si era coricato e dormiva profondamente.” (Giona 1:5)."«Prendetemi e gettatemi in mare, e il mare si calmerà per voi; perché io so che questa gran tempesta vi piomba addosso per causa mia».". (Giona 1:12)“Poi presero Giona, lo gettarono in mare e la furia del mare si calmò.” (Giona 1:15).I marinai avevano gettato la merce che ormai era zavorra  per alleggerire la nave; Giona in questo momento non è più un figlio di Dio... è “zavorra”, un peso inutile, un peso di cui ci si può disfare...Mi chiedo quante volte sono stato solo zavorra perché non ho parlato con Dio, perché non ho parlato di Dio e perché ho disobbedito a Dio, e perché mi sono ostinato a non ammettere il mio errore.Credere in Cristo, si va bene,   ma seduto  al posto di pilotaggio,  vivendo a modo mio,  facendo le mie scelte,  seguendo i miei desideri  e non cercando il Signore in queste decisioni. Sono un cittadino del cielo.  Ma mi affido al mio denaro,  alla mia carriera,  al mio status,  al mio lavoro,  alla mia conoscenza,  alla mia abilità  e alla mia attenzione molto mondana.  Non ho parlato con Dio di tutto questo.Se faccio così, posso diventare “zavorra”. Zavorra che appesantisce la nave mia e degli altri, piuttosto che salvarla dalle onde.E questo spesso succede perché non accettiamo che la misericordia imprevista di Dio  è anche per noi,  quando capisco di aver smesso di parlare con Dio e di affidarmi a lui.E sarebbe bastato un  “Perdonami! Ho sbagliato, avevi ragione tu, ritorno ad ascoltare e a parlare con te” e non sarei più stato zavorra.Qual è la nostra identità? Non è quella di essere un peso; anche quando attraversiamo momenti di ribellione,  di interrogativi irrisolti,  di dubbio.Forse è una crisi di fede.  Forse siamo sopraffatti dagli eventi. Forse ci sentiamo come se le nostre parole rimbalzassero sul soffitto, e Dio ci avesse dimenticato.E non riusciamo ad accettare  che la misericordia inaspettata di Dio sia anche per noi,   nei dubbi, nella ribellione, nel fuggire lontano...Se, anzi, quando ci troviamo lì,  continuiamo a parlare con Dio.  Forse non sappiamo nemmeno cosa dobbiamo dire.  Anche lì Dio, nella sua misericordia, ha coperto quella situazione.“Nello stesso modo, anche lo Spirito Santo ci aiuta giorno per giorno nei nostri problemi e nelle nostre preghiere. Perché, in realtà, noi non sappiamo neppure per che cosa pregare, né pregare nel modo giusto, ma lo Spirito Santo prega per noi con tale sentimento, che non si può esprimere a parole.” (Romani 8:26 PV)“Dio, eccomi... vorrei parlare... ma non ho le parole.” Lo Spirito di Dio dentro di noi dice:  "Stai tranquillo, ci penso io".Questa è la misericordia inattesa di Dio. Questa è l'identità di essere figli... amati, ricercati, compresi, aiutati, perdonati.Giona non riuscì ad accettarla... ma noi non siamo Giona... e non vogliamo essere zavorra.E non dobbiamo fare nulla di più che parlare al nostro Dio.Preghiamo.GUARDA LE DIAPOSITIVE DEL MESSAGGIOGUARDA IL MESSAGGIO IN BASSA RISOLUZIONE SU FACEBOOKGUARDA IL MESSAGGIO IN BASSA RISOLUZIONE SU INSTAGRAM---   GUARDA IL VIDEO DEL MESSAGGIO IN HD

À la Une: la France suspend son aide au développement au Mali

Selon Le Monde Afrique, cette décision a été prise « il y a deux ou trois semaines » par Paris, mais elle n'a pas fait l'objet d'une communication « officielle » de sa part. Pour justifier cette suspension, le ministère français des Affaires étrangères invoque le recours de la junte malienne au groupe militaire russe Wagner, que la Mali dément. Spécialisée dans l'économie africaine, l'agence Ecofin souligne que cette décision intervient dans un contexte de tensions accrues avec Bamako, et que, pour certaines organisations de la société civile, cette décision « pourrait avoir de lourdes conséquences sur la population malienne ». Ecofin signale qu'au total, « près de 70 projets de développement en cours ou prévus au Mali, ces prochaines années, « pourraient être stoppés » et que la suspension de l'aide publique au développement de la France au Mali « pourrait ouvrir un nouveau front économique dans le processus d'isolation progressive de Bamako sur la scène internationale ». Selon les Nations unies, « la situation humanitaire au Mali, en proie à l'insécurité et aux chocs climatiques, est « préoccupante », pointe Ecofin, 7,5 millions de personnes dans le pays ayant besoin d'assistance humanitaire cette année, 4,8 millions étant en situation d'insécurité alimentaire alors que 1 664 écoles sont non fonctionnelles, soit 16% des écoles du Mali ». Répit pour les Démocrates béninois Au Bénin, la Cour constitutionnelle a accédé hier à la requête du parti d'opposition les Démocrates. La formation de l'ancien président Thomas Boni Yayi avait déposé un recours auprès de la haute juridiction, après avoir vu sa liste pour les législatives du 8 janvier prochain rejetée par la commission électorale. « Les Démocrates obtiennent un sursis », lance Jeune Afrique. Toutefois, complète ce journal, « cette décision ne garantit pas encore la participation de ce parti au scrutin de janvier. Les démocrates doivent maintenant attendre la délivrance de leur récépissé définitif par la Cena », pointe JA. Côte d'Ivoire, la liste de la discorde J-1, en Côte d'Ivoire, avant le coup d'envoi de la révision de la liste électorale. L'opération « débute demain », lance Fraternité Matin en Une. Le quotidien gouvernemental souligne notamment la possibilité, cette fois-ci, de s'enrôler « en ligne », Frat Mat s'empressant d'ajouter que cette méthode inédite et high-tech d'enrôlement est réservée « aux personnes déjà inscrites ». La révision de la liste électorale, en vue des prochains scrutins en Côte d'Ivoire – les élections municipales et régionales de 2023, notamment – est « une opération d'envergure qui nécessite la participation de tous », souligne le quotidien indépendant Soir Info. Etant rappelé que les principaux partis ivoiriens d'opposition réclament la réforme de la Commission électorale indépendante et un audit de la liste électorale, ce même journal rapporte les propos de la troisième vice-présidente de la Commission électorale indépendante, Salimata Porquet. Laquelle déclare que « ceux qui réclament l'audit de la liste électorale n'ont rien compris parce que l'étape du contentieux permettra d'avoir une liste électorale fiable, crédible et inclusive. Faisons confiance à la CEI et sachez que cette histoire d'audit n'a aucun sens », a dit encore Salimata Porquet, signale Soir Info. Dans le quotidien Le Temps, proche de l'ex-président Laurent Gbagbo, le docteur Christophe Kouamé, président de l'ONG Civis, dresse un inventaire des fraudes potentielles, en expliquant « comment s'opère la fraude sur la liste électorale », en évoquant notamment les cas d'inscription de « non-nationaux » sur ladite liste, ainsi que « l'inscription des mineurs » ou de « non-résidents », ou encore la « non radiation des personnes décédées ».

Zilnic ne uităm la știri despre inovația din lume, deși cam greu în ultimul timp, dar se mai strecoară câte una și ne gândim: măi, oare la noi când va fi adoptat? Oare la noi când va fi mainstream? Parcă ne întrebăm oare când o să prindem și noi la minte. Vestea bună e că noi demult suntem în pas cu lumea, doar că adopția într-adevăr e mică și puțini cunosc. Dar pentru asta avem podcastul Prepare for Future, unde Alex Gurdila încearcă să prezinte lumea din viitor prin prisma prezentului, așa încât să nu ne fie frică de propria umbră. În episodul #4 al podcastului, am adus în redacție un invitat de la Conferința Web 3.0 care a avut loc recent la Chișinău. Cei din domeniu deja se intersectează des și unii din ei chiar folosesc elemente din revoluția care va fi Web 3.0. Ce este acestă generație cu numărul Trei a Internetului și ce s-a întâmplat cu precedentele două ne povestește Michael Littig, Director of Creator Programming The Hug și Co-Founder la Zuckerberg Institute (fondat de sora lui Mark). Cei interesați de felul în care arta va interacționa cu viitorul sau despre cum poate un bilet la Formula 1 să devină un suvenir unic, care costă și bani, au ocazia să se lase ghidați de Michael pe drumul revoluției digitale pe care o aduce Generația 3 de Internet. Acest podcast este susținut de către Agenția Elvețiană pentru Dezvoltare și Cooperare.

Rick Alan Ross is the founder and the Executive Director of The Cult Education Institute (or CEI). He is a globally recognized expert on the inner workings of destructive cults, controversial groups as well as subversive movements. Rick is also the author of the book 'Cults Inside Out: How People Get In and Can Get Out'. He began his research for the book in 1982, as he began delving into the rising threat that controversial authoritarian groups and movements posed. Ross then later started a website with his archives in 1996, and the CEI now keeps this online archive of his material he collected on cults and controversial groups. As such he has become a qualified and accepted expert witness, who has also testified in court proceedings all across the United States. This has also extended to the US Federal Court on numerous occasions. He has also frequently assisted both local and national US law enforcement, as well other governmental agencies in all their cult related cases. His reputation has also led to him becoming a paid consultant for CBS, CBC and Nippon of Japan television networks. He has also been retained as a technical consultant for both Miramax and Disney film studios.
