Popp Talk with Mary Jane Popp Astrology, Energy Healing, 5G Concerns, and Navigating a Changing World Mary Jane Popp welcomes astrologer Constance Stellas and energy healer Beth Bauer to Popp Talk for conversations about astrology, Pluto's return, eclipses, political and global uncertainty, personal choice, self-care, energy fields, distance healing, EMF and 5G concerns, technology, artificial intelligence, and the search for practical ways to remain aligned during turbulent times. Guest Spotlight: Constance Stellas Constance Stellas is introduced as an astrologer and author with more than twenty years of experience. She explains astrology as an ancient system that developed through observation of stars, planets, seasons, navigation, and agriculture before evolving into the interpretation of personal birth charts. She says a full astrological chart draws upon a person's birth date, year, location, and time. Astrology, History, and the United States Mary Jane asks whether a nation can have a birth chart, and Constance applies that idea to the United States. She discusses the country's Pluto return, interpreting Pluto as connected with power, hidden corruption, transformation, and the exposure of social wounds. She describes the present period as difficult but potentially cleansing, with political, organizational, and cultural divisions being brought to the surface. These are Constance's astrological interpretations rather than independently verified predictions. Eclipses, Conflict, and Avoiding Fear-Based Astrology The discussion turns to the 2017 and 2024 eclipses and the idea that their paths formed an X across the United States. Constance describes this as a potentially tense and energizing pattern, but cautions against treating astrology as a source of inevitable catastrophe. She also connects Pluto's position with war and geopolitical tension involving Ukraine, Israel, Hamas, Russia, China, Iran, and North Korea. At the same time, she argues that astrology should help people understand possibilities and choices rather than frighten them into paralysis. Political Predictions, Choice, and Personal Responsibility Mary Jane asks about Joe Biden, Donald Trump, and the 2024 election. Constance says she had previously predicted that Trump would not win, though she does not claim to know how or why. The conversation also references Ronald and Nancy Reagan's consultation with astrologer Joan Quigley. Constance emphasizes that astrology does not mean everything is fixed; people still have choices and can express the strengths or weaknesses associated with their astrological patterns. Self-Care, Creativity, and Astrology During Chaos Constance promotes her twelve-book Self-Care For... series, with one volume for each zodiac sign, and discusses using astrology to support physical, mental, spiritual, and recreational well-being. She also reflects on changes in society, artificial intelligence, produced creativity, and the loss of what older generations considered normal. She says astrology can connect people with myth, symbolism, personal challenges, and constructive ways to respond during periods of personal and global chaos. Guest Spotlight: Beth Bauer After a public-service announcement break, Mary Jane introduces Beth Bauer as an energy healer and author of Fields of Energy. Beth says she has been able to see and feel energy fields around people since she was four years old. In her description, areas of energetic congestion appear visually different, and she believes that correcting these patterns can support physical healing. These claims are presented as Beth's personal experience and healing framework, not as established medical science. Distance Healing and Energetic Connection Beth says she does not need to be physically present with someone, have a photograph, or know the person's location in order to perform what she calls distance healing. She describes identifying the intended person through the relationship of the person requesting help and recounts examples in which clients reported improvement. She also says her children share similar abilities, although she did not formally teach them. 5G, Wi-Fi, EMF, and Technology Concerns A large portion of Beth's interview concerns her belief that 5G, Wi-Fi, cellular devices, routers, smart appliances, and electromagnetic fields can negatively affect health and the body's energy field. She says she became severely sensitive to 5G and eventually moved to a more remote location. She recommends reducing Wi-Fi exposure, hardwiring internet connections, keeping devices away from the body, and using products she believes offer protection. These medical, technical, and product-effectiveness claims are speaker claims and should not be presented as verified scientific or medical conclusions without independent evidence. Healing Claims, Genetic Conditions, and Serious Illness Beth makes extensive claims about helping thousands of people, distance healing, cancer, traumatic injuries, genetic conditions, Down syndrome, spina bifida, and unborn children. She also says a woman wrote a book about recovering from cancer through Beth's distance-healing work without chemotherapy or radiation. They should be clearly attributed to Beth and should not be used as medical advice or as a substitute for professional diagnosis or treatment. Artificial Intelligence, Cell Phones, and Younger Generations Beth describes artificial intelligence as dangerous and says both she and her husband avoid using it. She also discusses cell-phone radiation, comparing different phones through what she says she can physically feel, and recommends researching radiation output before purchasing devices. The episode ends abruptly while she and Mary Jane are discussing children and younger generations who have grown up immersed in wireless technology and may never have experienced life without it.

In this week's episode of "Registered," we speak with Iola High School principal Scott Carson. Big changes await IHS students when they return this fall. First, a statewide ban on cell phones will be in effect. Second, the school is moving away from assigning Chromebooks to each student, instead allowing students to have access to classroom Chromebook carts on an as-needed basis. The two changes will affect every single student, teacher and classroom. They also come as more and more schools are critical of, or are certainly rethinking, technology's place in our children's education. We talk with Carson about what this means for Iola students, how the school is adapting, and what's next as the school year approaches.

After a long day as a school bus driver, Nate checks his voicemail and finds a message from "AT&T" offering a discounted rate and a new phone. He has been a loyal customer and is looking for ways to lower his expenses, so he calls them back. The agent already knows all of Nate's information and walks him through the process of picking out his new phone on the AT&T app. When the phone arrives, Nate calls back to set it up, but there is a problem: The phone's serial number doesn't match, and he'll have to send it back. They send him a prepaid shipping label and tell him to pick out a new iPad and phone for his troubles. When the new items arrive, and again there is a problem, Nate becomes suspicious that he is entangled in a reshipping fraud scheme. 

Discussions about AI in education are moving beyond academic integrity, critical thinking, and the question of whether AI is a gift or a curse to humanity.  Among the most interesting emerging conversations is the idea that the single most important factor determining the future of AI in education is trust.  In this month's meet-up, the founders of SAMR, TPACK, SETI, Triple E, and the Gen AI-U tech integration frameworks explore two pivotal questions about AI in education: What can you trust, and who do you trust?  The discussion quickly revealed why trust may be the most pivotal topic we need to explore in education today.

The state of public education is a mess. At the heart of it is a real struggle about a fundamental question: How much tech should our kids be exposed to daily in the classroom?Contrary to what parents have been told by public schools nationwide, there is no single one-size-fits-all solution for kids and that includes the use or non-use of tech tools like artificial intelligence (AI) in classrooms.Also, did those high-tech school districts warn you your kid's basic math skills would erode so much that she/he would be tethered to a tech device for the rest of their lives?Priten Soundar-Shah, author of Ethical Ed Tech: How Educators Can Lead on AI and Digital Safety in K-12, shares a better way forward based on the intelligent and deliberate use of technology that fosters better engagement in our public schools this week on Spirit Gym. Learn more about Priten and his much-needed work in the non-profit sector at his website.

Illinois is set to join a growing number of states that have barred cellphone use in the classroom. Just as the Illinois General Assembly reached its deadline to wrap up its legislative session Sunday, the state Senate passed legislation that would largely restrict cellphones in Illinois schools. The legislation would go into effect for the 2027-28 school year, meaning school districts will have a year to plan before the restrictions are implemented.

The St. Louis Morning Brief is packed this morning and none of it is small talk. Illinois just followed Missouri's lead and banned cell phones in schools bell to bell — but buried in the fine print is an exception that raises serious questions about assimilation. Then, the heartbreaking story of a St. Charles teacher killed after a Point Fest crowd surfer accident takes a stunning turn — her family reveals the kick may have actually saved them from a far more devastating goodbye. And a local carnival near Mid Rivers Mall turned ugly fast when a laser pointer sparked a brawl that sent kids to the hospital with broken bones while bystanders filmed it for social media likes instead of calling for help. This is the St. Louis news the networks gloss over — and the Marc Cox Morning Show brings it home every single morning.

Episode SummaryIn Episode 31, Dr. Candida Fink and Jo-Ann Berry tackle the complex and evolving role of technology in the classroom. They discuss the growing movement toward "phone-free" schools, examining the tension between the potential benefits of reduced distractions and the practical challenges of enforcement. The conversation also shifts to the transformative power of Generative AI, with Jo sharing firsthand accounts of how tools like Gemini are becoming essential "thought partners" for students with learning differences. Together, they explore how educators can move away from a culture of restriction toward one of intentional, supportive technology use.Key Points & HighlightsThe Phone-Free School Debate: Schools are increasingly implementing bans to reclaim student focus, but the practical reality of managing "thousands of phones" remains a major hurdle for administrators.AI as a Cognitive Tool: Generative AI is shifting from a feared "cheating tool" to a powerful executive functioning aid, helping students brainstorm, organize thoughts, and break down complex tasks.The "Thought Partner" Concept: Jo describes AI not as a replacement for work, but as a collaborator that helps students move past the "blank page" paralysis often associated with ADHD and learning disabilities.Safety vs. Distraction: While parents often want students to have phones for safety reasons, the constant pull of social media and notifications creates a significant "switching cost" that hinders deep learning.Modeling Digital Habits: The hosts emphasize that adults must model healthy technology use rather than just imposing bans, acknowledging that phone addiction is a systemic challenge for all ages.Takeaways & Practical TipsFor Educators: Instead of banning AI, teach students how to use it for "low-stakes" brainstorming or outlining to build confidence in their writing process.For Parents: Understand that the push for phone-free environments is about creating a "sacred space" for learning, even if it feels inconvenient for immediate communication.For Students: Experiment with using AI tools to summarize long texts or generate "to-do" lists for projects to help manage executive functioning demands.Incremental Implementation: Schools can try "phone-free" zones or specific times (like lunch or transition periods) rather than an all-or-nothing approach to build community buy-in.Resources MentionedGemini (Google AI): Discussed as a tool for students to use as a brainstorming partner.Yondr Pouches: Mentioned as a common physical solution for locking away phones during the school day.The Anxious Generation by Jonathan Haidt: Referenced (implicitly) in the context of the national movement toward phone-free schools and the impact of technology on youth mental health.Connect With UsWe would love to hear how your school is handling the phone and AI revolution!Website: MentalHealthGoesToSchool.comSocial Media: Follow us for updates on "good things" from our travels and classroom insights.Timeline[00:00] Intro: Welcome to Episode 31.[02:45] The "Great Phone Ban": Current trends in school policies across the country.[06:30] The distraction factor: How "switching costs" impact a student's ability to focus.[10:15] Parents and safety: The conflict between home communication and school focus.[14:50] AI in the classroom: Moving from fear of cheating to embracing support.[19:20] Case study: How Jo uses AI as a "thought partner" for students with ADHD.[24:10] The future of education: Why we need to teach students "how to learn" with these tools.[27:35] "One Good Thing": Celebrating our trip to Iceland—the food, the people, and the geothermal pools.If you enjoy our content, please like and follow - and review if you can!

Full Show Notes: https://bengreenfieldlife.com/emfguypodcast In this fascinating episode, Nick Pineault, also known as “The EMF Guy,” breaks down the latest science on radiofrequency radiation, including findings from the National Toxicology Program, the WHO classification of EMFs, and emerging evidence linking device exposure to oxidative stress and reduced sperm health. The conversation also highlights why current safety standards may not reflect real-world, long-term exposure. You’ll also discover the concept of “body burden,” which is the accumulation of heavy metals, mycotoxins, and environmental toxins that can build up silently over time. Nick shares his own experience discovering high levels of lead, mercury, and mold toxins despite being physically fit, along with the changes he noticed after addressing detoxification through sauna therapy, oxygen cycling, and chelation. If you’re dealing with brain fog, low energy, or unexplained symptoms, this episode connects the dots between modern environmental exposures, from EMFs to microplastics, and how they may be influencing your overall health. Nick Pineault is an investigative health advocate, author, and educator. He is the author of The Non-Tinfoil Guide to EMFs and has spent over a decade researching the health effects of electromagnetic fields and modern environmental exposures. His work focuses on translating complex scientific data into practical strategies for reducing risk in a technology-driven world. He is also the creator of the documentary Body Burden, which explores the hidden accumulation of toxins in the human body and the emerging field of environmental medicine.
