In this week's episode of Matt Likes Beer, Matt takes a sip of sunshine with Pure Project Tropical Mist, a citrus blonde ale inspired by Costa Rica's misty rainforests. Brewed with Valencia oranges and Pure Project's signature murky yeast, this beer boasts a bright, effervescent character that perfectly balances malt and citrus. Matt shares the story of his visit to Pure Project during a 2022 beer vacation in San Diego, detailing how a recommendation from a beloved homebrew store led him to discover this unique brewery. Along the way, he reflects on the bittersweet closure of that store, celebrates Pure Project's craft, and evaluates Tropical Mist as both a fruit beer and a blonde ale. This episode includes: A live BJCP-style evaluation, with Tropical Mist scoring a respectable 39 out of 50. A humorous dive into contrasting beer reviews, from poetic praise to a trash bag analogy. Matt's personal thoughts on how this beer fits into a tasting lineup and why it's a delightful addition to any beer lover's repertoire. Listen now on Neozaz.com, BigMonsterBrewing.com, or your favorite podcast platform, and join Matt for a refreshing exploration of Pure Project's craft and a toast to great beer!

In this Make Peace with Food Minisode, we're exploring the concept of scarcity mindset and how it impacts your relationship with food. I'm sharing with you my personal struggles with binge eating and how diving deep into nutritional sciences actually is what led to my disordered eating pattern, and how I got out of it by working on my nervous system. I'm also talking about why restricting creates a food scarcity mindset and is the reason behind your binge eating, emotional eating and even night time snacking behaviour that you just can't seem to kick.  If you've been battling with eating habits, feeling out of control or disconnected, you're not alone—and this episode is for you! By the way, if you've been listening to this minisode, and you're ready to take a timeout and focus on just you for a whole week, then I want to invite you to join me for the Transformation in Paradise Empyrean Retreat in Costa Rica May 24-31, 2025.  This will be the most transformative week of your life at the breathtaking Osa Peninsula in Costa Rica.  This will be a small group experience with exclusive access at the Blue Osa resort..  Imagine waking to the sound of the Costa Rican rainforest musical every morning.  Start your day with a yoga practice overlooking the Pacific Ocean, joined in with howler monkeys. Daily walks on a private beach that goes on for miles. Macaws flying overhead. Spa treatment at a 5-star resort, and the best farm-to-table food - right from the Blue Osa farm.   This retreat is designed to reset your nervous system, so you stop the patterns of self-sabotage and overwhelm. Reignite your motivation, release any addictive habits, and open yourself to the health, relationships, and financial abundance you deserve.  Intrigued? Curious? Let's book a call to find out if this retreat is the right for you.   Just head on over to ⁠sherryshaban.com/retreats⁠ and you can book a time with me there. Plus if you rate and review this podcast, giving me a 5-star rating on iTunes, and then send the screenshot to ⁠sherry@sherryshaban.com⁠, so I know who you are, you'll receive the voucher to join!  Remember, the group is small so spots are limited!  Let's see if Empyrean is right for you.

La lucha frontal contra el crimen organizado y la peor ola de violencia que ha vivido Costa Rica en los últimos tres años con la mayor cantidad de homicidios, requiere de un trabajo conjunto. Pero ese no es el panorama que estamos viviendo. A las pruebas nos remitimos: dos importantes actos de rendición de cuentas, en diciembre y enero, evidencian que la anterior coordinación con Seguridad Pública y la Policía Judicial no es tan potente como en anteriores administraciones. El director del OIJ, con preocupación, lo ha dejado en claro. Además, en plena ejecución de la Operación Caribe 2.0, concentrada en el cantón de Matina con la participación de agentes del OIJ, declaraciones del ministro Mario Zamora cayeron como un balde de agua fría. No es la primera vez que el jerarca, antes de dar cuentas de los resultados de la Operación Costa Rica Segura Plus, que es el plan de la administración Chaves Robles, señala a los gobiernos anteriores como responsables de la poca inversión y del desorden que supuestamente recibió en el Ministerio de Seguridad. A tales niveles llegó el desacuerdo que aseguró que los decomisos de droga, habrían sido duplicados alterando las cifras oficiales para -aparentemente- justificar la caída abrupta de decomisos en esta administración, que no llegan ni a la mitad de los que antes se realizaban. Esto llevó al exministro de Seguridad y hoy subdirector del OIJ, Michael Soto, a desmentir de plano los argumentos de Zamora. Otro hecho que demuestra las tensiones es la carta (conocida en las últimas horas) en la que, por orden del ministro de Hacienda, Nogui Acosta, se notificó al Poder Judicial que no se girarán los más de 9 mil millones de colones que la Asamblea Legislativa ordenó entregar para la lucha contra la criminalidad. Para ponderar lo que sucede y poner foco a las acciones de este año conversaremos mañana con el director del OIJ don Randall Zúñiga.

Student travel is amazing. I regularly talk with high-school-age students who have never left the Greater Houston Area Jeff Hopp has decided to give up his time off during the summer to take students on trips over the summer. How did you get started with student travel? I went on a few trips with my wife as a chaperone since she is a teacher. My role with EF Tours is to recruit kids and build excitement around the trip. We offer it to our students AT Aides, Health Science students IB program. The trips are educational but are mostly about opening people up to travel, culture, and people. Where were you this summer? Summer 24 - Ireland, England, and Paris Where else have you been? January 23 - Training Trip to Belize Summer 23 - Costa Rica Training trips allow you to learn how the trips work. They are fast-paced and go, go, go The tour directors pretty much run everything once it starts. Plane - England - bus - castle - hotel Wake up early and hit another landmark, a sheepdog demonstration, a bog farm… Typically from breakfast at 8 am to dinner you are up and going. Usually a different hotel each night. On our last day in Paris, I walked 12 miles. My training trip was in Belize for 5 days We went to Costa Rica with 25 students January 2023 - Belize (training trip) 2023 - Costa Rica 2024 - Ireland England 2025 - Italy Greece 2026 - Thailand Cambodia What company do you use? EF Tours 1 chaperone travels for free for every 6 kids that pay. With 30 people you get a private tour. Why do you spend your summers with students? These are typically students we would be around all year.  Our trips are not open campus-wide.  Students have become accustomed to the trips.  The kids come into the year looking forward to the opportunity. Pros and cons of student travel? We took phones away at dinner and then the kids opened up.  They got noisy at dinner because they were talking to each other, bonding, and creating memories. As an Athletic Trainer you might have summer duties, so traveling with students could eat into the few weeks you have at home. My wife was gone for 10 days and she got back at the same time I was leaving for my trip.  We missed half of the summer together.

“Ver el amanecer desde la camper en las montañas de Costa Rica, con un lago de por medio y la brisa refrescando el ambiente, junto a unos amigos y a Maya. Su primer viaje largo en cuatro ruedas.” Ese era mi plan de fin de año. Alquilé mi casa desde el 30 hasta el 2 de enero, a un precio ridículo que compensaba el esfuerzo de preparar las maletas y recoger todo. Me venía bien marcharme unos días, llevo desde que llegué levantándome a las 5 y media para ir a la obra -literalmente-. Justo antes de marchar dejaba listo el episodio de la semana pasada: “Consejos prácticos para empezar el año bien”. Como cada vez que aflojo un poco el pie del acelerador, el destino me tenía guardada una buena. ¿Quieres arrancar bien el año? Déjate de hostias y toma dos tazas de mala racha. Pa’ que no te relajes. Para mí, fue como si el mismísimo Dios me dijera esto. Así que, de amanecer en la montaña, nada de nada. No sabía que no iba a llegar a las montañas. Tampoco sabía que iba a pasar toda la noche de fin de año en vela y con una angustia tremenda. Pero lo que sí sabía es que, a pesar de todos los malos ratos, pasé el 31 agradeciendo a la gente a la que quiero. Después, entré en modo guerrero de nuevo. Muchas veces me ha tocado, ya no es nuevo. Me siento cómodo en ese estado, aunque genera mucha tensión y sea agotador. Finalmente, las cosas salieron “no mal”, puedo reírme de lo sucedido y contar una aventura más, de aquellas que suceden cuando Vives Distinto. ¿Quieres saber qué pasó? Te cuento toda la historia, cual trovador, en el episodio 337 del Podcast Nómada Digital.

A world traveler known for heading to some of the strangest places on the planet, she has also competed for jogging space in Colombia with guerrillas intent on overthrowing the government, learned to dance salsa in Cuba with the aid of a 60-year-old woman intent on starting each morning with a healthy dose of rum, and dodged bombs in Lebanon.

She studied film in Cochabamba, Bolivia, the city she currently calls home, where she writes and directs comedic shorts in Spanish. Long ago she lived in Los Angeles, where she wrote a humorous TV special that was nominated for an Emmy ("The New Adventures of Mother Goose.") She is currently at work on a new memoir.

Episode 516 – The Source of Pain   Today we have Hattie. She is 34 years old from South London, UK, and she took her last drink on April 25th, 2021.   Sponsors for this episode include:   Better Help – 10% off your first month   Sober Link - get a promo code for $50 off of the device.   Registration is open for Recovery Elevator's first ever Men's Retreat will be April 5th through the 12th in Costa Rica. We've got space for 12 guys.   Café RE is THE social app for sober people. If you are struggling to meet people who no longer drink alcohol, then this community app is for you. Yes, it is mostly online, but we've got a bunch of in-person meetups on the calendar.   [03:57] Thoughts from Paul:   Ask the Magic 8 Ball “is alcohol the primary source of my pain?” and the responses will be “it is certain” “it is decidedly so” “without a doubt” and “yes, definitely”.   Of course, alcohol is causing the pain. It's the most destructive and addictive substance on the planet and for some strange reason it's still in our face daily with advertising everywhere.   You want to start viewing alcohol similarly to how you would look at a moldy, half-eaten hoagie sandwich on a park bench: you wouldn't touch that sandwich, let alone eat it. The tricky part is that our addiction lies to us in our own voice and do it's best to convince you that alcohol is the source of relief rather than pain. Which it can be at first, but inevitably that doesn't last long.   But your life is not over when you quit drinking. A better chapter is just beginning.   [09:24] Paul introduces Hattie:   Hattie grew up in a place called New Forest where there are wild ponies and pigs. She now lives in London with her husband and two young children. Hattie works in sustainability and also has set up Sober Happy Free on Instagram and TikTok sharing her story around sobriety.   Hattie says she took her first drink at 14. Her alcohol seeking behavior began quickly thereafter. She says alcohol helped her with confidence and feeling comfortable with herself. Drinking was more of a need than a want, she says. She says at this age it was easy to consider the drinking normal but knew that drinking alone or secretly would be a problem.   When Hattie was around 26, she was introduced to cocaine which allowed her to drink more and drink longer. Hattie says she did not have any authentic connections with people at this time. There was not a corner of her life that alcohol didn't touch.   Even once getting pregnant, which she and her husband were trying to do, she looked at the test and wondered “how on earth am I not going to drink?” Hattie made it through the pregnancy but was drinking as soon as she could after and says she was right back where she started.   Seeing a lot of people talking about Dry January online inspired Hattie to give it a try. She continued after the month ended, but never planned to quit entirely and was planning dates that she would allow herself to drink. Hattie got a sobriety coach and ended up not drinking for four months. The day that she decided to have a drink, she found herself on the phone with a friend who was in AA saying she couldn't do it anymore.   Hattie joined AA and found community. She still stays involved in it now at over three years sober. She has a sponsor, and they worked through the 12 steps together. Hattie's advice around AA is to go into it with an open mind.   For Hattie, year one was about changing her lifestyle. Year two was more about discovery as she tried new hobbies and experiences. Hattie says year three has been about giving back to the community by way of chairing meetings and starting her sober social media accounts. She is passionate about breaking the stigma of alcohol abuse.   Hattie's parting piece of guidance:  If alcohol is dominating your life or playing a negative role in it, the best thing you can do is get sober.   Recovery Elevator You took the elevator down, you've gotta take the stairs back up.

Alza vuelo el 2025 y debemos seguir con los cinturones amarrados, ya que los vientos de cola del año viejo se juntan con las turbulencias del nuevo, dado que las condiciones siguen siendo las mismas. La alta desigualdad social se sigue profundizando dada la visión fiscalista del gobierno que arranca 12 meses con un presupuesto recortado en áreas tan sensibles como la educación, la salud, la vivienda, el pago de salarios y la construcción de obra pública. Esto incide en los altos índices de violencia y la ola de criminalidad que inicia, el primer día del año con un femicidio y un homicidio. Los desajustes fiscales se acrecientan debido a que la economía urge potenciar más el motor interno, frenar el endeudamiento -un tema del que se habla poco- y mejorar la recaudación de impuestos. La polarización política seguirá en aumento, ya que el oficialismo sacará provecho a la crispación que se elevará con el año preelectoral. Por más buenos deseos que tengamos, Costa Rica no escapará a un año de alta intensidad política. Para poner en perspectiva este panorama conversaremos con el politólogo Sergio Araya.

Ari Dolegowski, a BioPerformance Therapist who offers transformative massage sessions with a tailored approach rooted in Physical Therapy and Eastern medicine, joins Discover Lafayette to share his philosophy on living a well-rounded and healthy life. He studied both Eastern and Western modalities of therapy in Thailand, Costa Rica, and New York City, to form an integrative approach to treatment and to better understand human nature. Ari played pro soccer in Chile, Tel Aviv and the U. S. and maintains a consistently active lifestyle, biking whenever he can in lieu of starting up a car. He also maintains a Tai Chi practice which ensures full body power and optimal alignment. Tai Chi is a moving meditation in the form of a series of gentle exercises that create harmony between the mind and body. The ultimate purpose is to cultivate our inner life energy (qi) to flow smoothly and powerfully through the body, a spiritual experience as much as a physical one. Ari will be offering classes in Tai Chi this year. Ari's work focuses on optimizing the body's natural abilities, through physical therapy and massage treatments to encourage clients to achieve peak physical and mental states. One thing many of us fail to do is stretch enough and he offers "Stretched Out," a modality of massage with a lineage of Thai Massage, TaiChi, Yoga Therapy, and Western joint mobilization. "Imagine having a stretch, a trigger point release, and increased blood flow all at one time," Ari says. His practice also includes cranio-sacral massage, a gentle yet effective way to ease tension and promote relaxation, and can help relieve headaches, reduce stress and improve overall well-being. Local athletes call on Ari for deep tissue massage sessions to treat musculoskeletal issues such as sprains and sports injuries; this form of massage helps break up scar tissue that forms following an injury and reduces tension in muscle and tissue. Ari offers consistent messaging on lifestyle, health, and wellness. "It all starts with us, our choices, our movement, and our intention to live a good life. Bio means life and performance considers honest personal health choices that can revolutionize your own path to developing awareness of the body and in the mind in order to lead an overall healthier and happier lifestyle." Ari's background working for an Eastern-Western physical therapy clinic gave him a way to look at the body in different ways than the Western lifestyle. "Environmental issues, not just lead in the water but anything outside that we bring in on ourselves, whether it's family or the news or politics, is a culmination of everything that we do. Then one thing can trigger pain, whether it is an unfortunate bike accident, being yelled at, a TV show that upsets you or the news....all of a sudden you have sharp pain in your neck and you don't know why. People look for one thing to blame, and just want to fix it. Is it acupuncture? Meditation? A cortisone shot or a chiropractor? It might need to be all, depending on how tightly wound up you are or your physical and emotional pain." At times, Ari works with people who may have unrealistic goals who have pushed themselves too far and incur an injury, taking on physical exercise that their body is not ready for. "The body just says 'whoa.' You know, if you're just looking to be healthy, maybe you need to go out and walk really fast a few times a week, rather than taking on running when you have never exercised. Because that's really hard on the body." "You should be able to do your job and then offset it with what you do when you're not working. If you sit all day, you should be in good enough shape that you can sit, stand, maybe go for a walk, do a quick stretch and not worry about that too much. 'Am I sitting ergonomically? Is my desk high enough?' I think it's what you do outside of your job or your career that helps with that. Perhaps you just have a simple 20 minute a day or every ...

La encuesta Actualidades 2024 que recién se publicó nos aporta datos determinantes que nos permite profundizar en las condiciones personales de satisfacción con la vida y la relación con la aprobación de la situación del país y la prestación de servicios públicos. La investigación nos aporta elementos para la conexión con el resguardo y defensa del derecho, que, como usuarios y consumidores tenemos en la transparencia, la eficiencia y la calidad en la prestación de servicios. En una escala de 1 a 10, es 8,6 la calificación promedio que dan las personas en relación con la satisfacción con su vida, pero está baja cuando se pregunta acerca de las condiciones de su ingreso mensual y su nivel educativo. Esa actitud positiva personal cambia, de manera drástica, al preguntarse respecto de la situación general de Costa Rica, ya que tres de cada cuatro expresan insatisfacción. A pesar de que una mayoría está de acuerdo en presentar denuncias ante un mal servicio, actos de corrupción o problemas en la comunidad, solo 1 de cada 10 lo ha hecho. Aquí un punto medular, que invita a conocer mecanismos de denuncia y educación de este derecho, para no quedarse solo con la desconfianza de las instituciones y alejarse de la democracia. Para profundizar estos resultados conversaremos mañana con la investigadora de la Escuela de Estadística de la UCR, Fernanda Alvarado y del equipo del trabajo, Guillermo Castillo.

Esta es una historia que tiene bastante de ficción, pero anclada en la ciencia, para llamar la atención ante las alteraciones que el calentamiento global y el cambio climático están produciendo a nuestro planeta. Lalia, es el personaje y el nombre de esta novela. Ella es de las últimas sobrevivientes a la catástrofe global, que inicia un viaje en una zona ubicada entre Costa Rica y Panamá, que se transporta entre ríos de fuego y zonas devastadas. En el trayecto se encuentra con otros seres vivos (con algunos rastros humanos igual que ella), cuyos diálogos nos convoca a reflexionar hoy sobre las acciones que no estamos tomando para proteger la casa común, por la crisis ambiental. El año 2024 ya quedó registrado como el más caliente de la historia, desde que hay registros. Culmina con seis semanas de veranos peligrosos, con muertes y desplazamientos de personas y territorios arrasados. Para penetrar en esta novela de ciencia ficción conversaremos con la escritora de Lalia, Anacristina Rossi.

Kyiv opts to not renew a contract with Moscow that brought Russian natural gas to Europe and $1 billion dollars in transit fees to Ukraine. Also, Japan grapples with “lonely deaths” of some 68,000 elderly people who die alone at home every year. And, although global cases of tuberculosis have decreased in recent years, Latin America has seen a 19% increase in its number of cases, with one report pointing to rising incarceration rates as a major factor. Plus, Costa Rica has its own version of bullfighting that doesn't kill the bull.Listen to today's Music Heard on Air.

In today's minisode, let's explore the complexities of dysbiosis, commonly known as leaky gut, wit me as I explain how this condition can lead to systemic inflammation and a range of symptoms, from shoulder pain and eczema to fibromyalgia.  Discover how the immune system reacts to substances escaping from the gut and the potential for autoimmune responses. Learn why addressing gut health could be key to managing these widespread issues. This episode delves into the critical connection between gut health and overall well-being. Key Takeaways: Dysbiosis, also known as leaky gut, occurs when the gut membrane becomes compromised, allowing harmful substances to escape and trigger inflammation. The immune system reacts to these escaped substances, often resulting in widespread inflammation and autoimmune responses. Conditions like fibromyalgia and arthritis can be linked to gut health, highlighting the importance of addressing dysbiosis. Systemic inflammation due to leaky gut can manifest as shoulder pain, headaches, eczema, and brain fog. Improving gut health may lead to a reduction in autoimmune symptoms and overall systemic inflammation. If you've been listening to this minisode, and you're ready to take a timeout and focus on just you for a whole week, then I want to invite you to join me for the Transformation in Paradise Empyrean Retreat in Costa Rica May 24-31, 2025.  This will be the most transformative week of your life at the breathtaking Osa Peninsula in Costa Rica.  This will be a small group experience with exclusive access at the Blue Osa resort..  Imagine waking to the sound of the Costa Rican rainforest musical every morning.  Start your day with a yoga practice overlooking the Pacific Ocean, joined in with howler monkeys.

Episode 515 – The Joys of Detox   Today we have Patrick. He's 43 years old from Montreal, Quebec and took his last drink on November 11th, 2024.   Join Recovery Elevator for our Restore Dry January course. This is our most intensive course, and it's all about accountability. This is the best setup we've had yet for this course as participants get access to all of Café RE, including the chats and the community when they sign up for the course.   Recovery Elevator's first ever Men's Retreat will be April 5th through the 12th in Costa Rica. We've got space for 12 guys. Registration for this event opens December 30th at 8AM EST.   AG1 – offering new subscribers a free $76 gift when you sign up   [3:58] Thoughts from Paul:   **DISCLAIMER** alcohol is the most dangerous substance to detox rom. Listen to your body and seek medical attention if you think you need to.   It doesn't matter what you're eliminating from your diet, the body does not like change. Studies have shown that when we take that first step forward in making change, the body can and will create chemicals of discomfort to pull you back into your comfort zone.   Part of the withdrawal from alcohol is your dopamine center learning how to create it's own dopamine again, but much of this discomfort is your body rebuking any change whatsoever. Yes, there will be some discomfort but after doing Recovery Elevator for ten years, Paul says that not one person he has met has regretted there decision to quit drinking. It's a one-way street once you begin to feel and see the benefits.   [7:57] Paul introduces Patrick:   Patrick is 43 years old and lives in Montreal, Quebec. He works in the administrative field at a hospital, and he enjoys running (5k every day), spending time with his friends and watching TV.   Patrick says he was born prematurely and wants to share that Fetal Alcohol Disorder exists. Both of his parents were alcoholics, and he had to parent them early in his life. At the age of 13, Patrick became responsible for his mother's care when she was diagnosed with Korsakoff Syndrome. He tried to help get her sober, but she was unable to and she ended up passing when she was 42 and Patrick was 16.   Patrick says that while in school he drank mainly on the weekends with friends. After school he moved to Montreal and says that drinking was glorified in his community. This continued until his mid thirties when he met someone and fell in love. His drinking stopped without him noticing.   Their relationship changed when his partner decided to move to the US. They ended the romantic relationship but remained close friends. Not long after COVID hit, Patrick and his friend were talking on the phone, and his friend told him that he was struggling with addiction. Patrick was planning to meet up with him and talk about their common issues, but unfortunately his friend passed away from an overdose.   Not being able to have any closure after his friends passing, Patrick's drinking picked up from functional to full time. He started to recognize his mother in himself and decided to quit drinking cold turkey. This lasted for several months but then he landed back where he was.   This November Patrick quit again and says this time he feels more stable. He has sought assistance from doctors and attends 12 step meetings along with mediation and running. He realizes that one drink is not an option. In order to reinforce the plan to stay sober, Patrick meditates and has learned to say “no” to events that will challenge his sobriety, he is avoiding places where he used to purchase alcohol, he has friends he can call on and he does at least seven meetings each week.   Patrick's parting piece of guidance: listen to your inner voice. Give 12 step meetings a try. Have an open mind and listen. You'll learn about others and most importantly, you learn about yourself.   Recovery Elevator Go big, because eventually we'll all go home.
