In this episode, we explore the power of purposeful play in education. Join us as we discuss the importance of play in the learning process, the Connecticut legislation about play in elementary grades, and the benefits of purposeful play for students. We also delve into the Lego study that highlights the positive impact of play on learning in K-8 students.We emphasize the importance of putting kids in the driver's seat, exploring concepts, making connections, and conducting experiments. We also discuss how building models and using natural curiosity can help students learn effectively. We encourage teachers to allow kids to find their own solutions and provide time for them to share and discuss their thought process.We believe that purposeful play empowers students and reimagines the classroom experience. It allows everyone to find success and reach their full potential. We acknowledge the challenges of implementing purposeful play, but we emphasize the importance of engaging with the information, discussing it, and using ideas in different ways. We also highlight the need for teachers to experience playful learning firsthand and to receive ongoing professional learning. Finally, we discuss the role of principals in creating a culture of purposeful play in schools.Play is about being in the moment. Purposeful play happening when we get to the goal of learning. CT Legislation about play in elementary gradesOver-engineering vs. open ended play. Lego Study about K-8 students - play is a great way to help them learn. Students were more excited to go to school when they had play. Play can take so many different forms. Putting kids in the driver's seatExploring conceptsMaking connectionsExperimentsBuilding modelsUse natural curiosity. Allow kids to find their own solutionsTime to share and discuss how they got there. When we can really interact with the informationPurposeful play will empower us to reimagine the classroom experience. Everybody can find success with purposeful play. Everybody can reach the bar that is appropriate for them. The challenge is that it takes so long to do these other thingsEngage with the information, discussion, then use ideas in a different way. How we wrap them together really matters. It can feel uncomfortable to do something new. Teachers need the love and opportunities, too. Teachers deserve some playful learning, too. Give teachers that experience first as a learner, and here are tools for you to use as well. Ongoing professional learning.How to be a transformative principal?

Raidījumu cikla vēstījumā par latviešu drukātās preses vēsturi esam nonākuši līdz pēcstaļinisma periodam padomju Latvijas preses attīstībā. Sarunu biedri studijā ir vēsturnieki - profesors Ilgvars Butulis un Latvijas Universitātes Latvijas Vēstures institūta vadošā pētniece Ineta Lipša. Žurnālists Eduards Liniņš raidījumu sāk ar personisku atmiņu: "Bērnībā, tie bija pagājušā gadsimta septiņdesmitie gadi, es vasaras pavadīju pie savas krustmātes, kura abonēja gandrīz visus ilustrētos žurnālus, kas tolaik iznāca. Tur bija "Zinātne un Tehnika", "Veselība", "Sieviete", šķiet, ka "Liesma", "Lauku Dzīve" un, protams, "Zvaigzne", kas bija lielākais no nozīmīgākais ilustrētais žurnāls. Un ar šādu komplektu, jāsaka, strādājošam cilvēkam tāda mēneša nopietnas lasāmvielas deva bija nodrošināta. Šī preses ainava, kurā ļoti nozīmīga vieta bija šiem ilustrētajiem žurnāliem, izveidojās pagājušā gadsimta piecdesmitajos gados. Žurnāls "Zvaigzne" sāka iznākt 1950. gadā, tas ir Staļina laiks, un tad, piecdesmito gadu otrā puse, nogale, sešdesmitais gads, 1960. gadā parādās "Zinātne un Tehnika", žurnāls "Liesma", šķiet 1958. gadā, "Veselība" arī ap to pašu laiku. Droši vien runa ir par to, ka cilvēku turīgums un arī valsts ekonomiskā situācija pēc Otrā pasaules kara ir daudzmaz stabilizējusies, bet droši vien tomēr tam ir saistība zināmā mērā arī ar visas dzīves salīdzinošu liberalizāciju." "Tā nebūs īsti prese, par ko es te gribu bilst, bet periodika. Iedomājieties - 1955. gads, bērnu kalendārs, viens atvērums - labajā pusē jaunais Staļins, kur ir murgi par Staļinu un zīmēta Staļina bilde, bet kreisajā ir [Augusta] Saulieša dzejolis, kas sākas ar rindām "Aust rīts, aiz meža sarkanbaltu redz jaunu dienu ceļamies." Tās ir faktiski paradoksālas lietas, kad Latvijas Komunistiskās partijas Centrālās komitejas izdevums, kuru rediģēja Centrālkomitejas loceklis Rafaels Blūms, kur ir tā laika komunistiskās inteliģences zieds, kļūst par galveno, tā teikt, brīvdomības bastionu un nacionālkomunisma tribīni," piebilst Ilgvars Butulis. Ineta Lipša tam pieliek klāt vēl vienu svarīgu aspektu, kas jāņem vērā: "Pēc Staļina nāves un 1956. gada Komunistiskā partija savā ziņā mainīja instrumentus, kā ietekmēt iedzīvotājus. No drastiski represīvām metodēm, kas saistās ar izsūtīšanu, tiesāšanu un tamlīdzīgi, tā sāka līdzsvarot ar šo iedzīvotāju audzinošo funkciju. Lai sasniegtu pēc iespējas dažādas sociālās grupas, arī varētu skaidrot šo salīdzinoši lielo skaitu ilustrēto žurnālu." Tomēr ļoti liela nozīme bija žurnālu redaktoru pašcenzūras un brīvdomības līmenim, atzīst vēsturnieki.

I am so incredibly excited to share this podcast with you. Did you know that depression has tripled since the pandemic? And did you know that top training news is stating that depression is probably not caused by chemical imbalances in the brain? We have been saying this for all of eternity, from the spiritual realm. So today I'm going to break down the root cause of depression from a spiritual psychology soul based perspective. I'm so excited if you are somebody who really cares about people, if you're somebody who coaches or somebody that really wants to make an impact in the world, you definitely want to listen to this podcast. My promise is for you to have a complete paradigm shift of understanding how depression has created, how we can recreate it to heal and reveal the truth of who we are. Let's go welcome to the Dr. Aaron podcast. This is a top spiritual psychology coach podcast to inspire and teach you how to transform your trauma birth, your soul's purpose, and manifest your dreams. Hi, I'm Dr. Aaron, Dr. Divinity. I'm committed to bringing you the best coaching tips, spiritual advice, trauma healing, and metaphysical recovery secrets. I'm here to help you monetize your spiritual gifts and love your life. I want you to know that I've been exactly where you are, and I believe in you together. We're awakening the world.  Speaker 1 (01:33): So there I was, it was four o'clock in the afternoon, and I decided to take a little CSTA nap and I laid down in my bed and I was just about to take my phone and place it over on my side table and turn it into airplane mode. When my phone began to show that one of my dear friends and master coaches was calling me, I debated in my mind, should I answer? Should I not? Okay. I'll answer. So answer and right away, her voice screeched on the other side of the phone, I need prayer. I need prayer. I need prayer. My son attempted suicide last night, my son attempted suicide. Last night, we went straight into prayer. We knew prayer for, I don't even know how long we were in there. We were in there, just my, the tears of compassion, the tears of the oneness all came through knowing the perfection of what her son had gone through, knowing that there was such a blessing of birthing truth, knowing right here, right now, that whatever he was experiencing, that this was the birthing pains of the new him, the new life aligning to his truth and his heart.  Speaker 1 (02:35): And of course through the prayer, we both became more and more empowered and we restored truth in mind. So the point is this is that that phone call made me realize that in the collective consciousness, that depression and suicidal ideation and even suicide attempts and suicide in itself is in the collective. I had had two other signs and for me, right, I don't necessarily go on Google trends to see what's happening in the world because we tap into truth and we know truth at all points in time. Boston university states that depression among adults in the United States tripled in the early 20, 20 months of the global coronavirus pandemic jumping to 8.5% before the pandemic to a staggering 27.8%. You guys get that almost one in a third of Americans is dealing with depression. You guys, this is no joke. Boston university states new research from the school of public health reveals that the elevated rate of depression has persisted into 2021 and even worse at climbing to 32.8% and affecting one in every American adults.  Speaker 1 (03:52): Obviously they don't have the stats on 20, 22 yet, but this is real. This is super real. So what happens for me is I don't need an article to come out, right? I don't need to see the Google trending or watch Twitter. I know what's happening from a spiritual perspective. And what happens is it comes through in three signs always, and this is part of it. So what happened, of course, that was the third incident that happened when my dear friend and master coach called about her son prior to that, within that same week, within the same last week, one of my clients in class was basically stating that her son was having suicidal ideation. And then in one of my practitioner classes three out of the, of course we have lots of practitioners in the class, but three of them were truly feeling the collective consciousness of the concept of I don't want to live.  Speaker 1 (04:47): And they were dealing with that. And these were three practitioners that are very stable and really know their mind it's that they were tapping into something beyond their individual consciousness. They were feeling the empathy, the empathy that we are, that we're impasse, right? That we feel the collective as well. So today I wanna break on down what is happening from a spiritual psychology perspective and break on down the trending top news about big pharma. Okay. We are spiritualists that believe that you have freedom of choice, whether you choose traditional doctors or pharmaceuticals or whatever, we believe that there's a time and place for whatever works for you. And we honor that. Okay. However, in the top training news right now, even in quote, the conversation is depression is probably not caused by chemical imbalance. Harvard university also had an article that says, basically talking about what causes depression, the onset of depression is more complex than brain chemical imbalance O M G.  Speaker 1 (05:49): This is huge news for the spiritual world, as far as a confirmation of what we have been saying the entire time. So we have to break this on down. And my commitment today is for you to have a paradigm shift for yourself. And if you are a coach to understand what is happening for your clients, disclosure, I am not a traditional doctor. I am a doctor of divinity. I am not a traditional psychologist. I am a spiritual psychologist coach. Okay. I am trained and developed in understanding our spiritual nature, how it impacts our entire life and how to restore the truth of who we are through E four trauma method, through spiritual psychology coaching and through all of the metaphysics that we teach. Universal law, everything, let's break this on down. I'm so honored to do this with you guys. First of all, I just wanna say, if you or someone, you know, is dealing with depression, please seek medical or professional help.  Speaker 1 (06:48): Okay? All the processes we work through absolutely can deal with depression. However, we cannot state that we cure, and we are mandated reporters, meaning that if we have a client that we are coaching and they have, they're having suicidal thoughts and they have a means to do it. We are mandated reporters and we need to report it. Okay. So having said that also, if you are a coach or somebody dealing with somebody, depression, and you really truly do not feel that you are equipped in your training, you absolutely have no business with dealing with someone, with depression. You need to refer them to a master coach or to a professional or a doctor who is dealing with depression. Okay? So let's go. So here's the paradigm shift. Science looks at depression from the outside end, right? They looking from a perspective of what we call the DSM.  Speaker 1 (07:43): Okay. There's a book. If you are, have any kind of mental illness, there is a book it's called DSM pharmaceutical perspective. It's called diagnostics and statistics manual. The DSM is it's based in diagnostics and statistics manual. And it's sponsored by big pharma. The truth is that someone does not have depression. They are experiencing depression. It is a creation. And I'm gonna break on down how it is created in mind. Okay? Doesn't mean it's real. It doesn't mean the effects aren't real, but how it gets created is imperative for us to understand how to heal it and how to restore the truth of who you or your clients are. Right? We're not the titles. We're not depressed. We're not bipolar. We're not an addict. We're not, you know, all these titles. I'm not even of course, on the title. I'm a doctor divinity, but I'm not a title.  Speaker 1 (08:42): I'm a spiritual being. I'm a creator. You are a creator. Your clients are creators. So we have to understand what this means. Exactly. Science looks from the outside world and puts a bandaid on it. Right? What causes this? Even, even psychology, traditional psychology does not even study the soul. Psychology is the study of the soul and psychology. Doesn't study the soul. That's why we're restoring it with spiritual psychology. And I bless all the psychologists out there. Okay. Because I know you guys are wanting to get more and more spiritual, and I'm not saying you bad, or the industry bad it's that we, as a collective need to restore the truth of psychology. It's the study of the soul. So traditional psychology looks at what the cause is, which is an outside source. And then it looks at the effect. So, so depression from a psychology perspective might look at, well, you grew up in this family and this happened.  Speaker 1 (09:39): And therefore here's the result over here from a spiritual psychology perspective, we take a look at what's actually happening at a soul level, right? So science looks from the outside in and spirituality looks from the inside, out the root of the problem. Science generally like big farm puts a bandaid on it. And spirituality, we get to the root of the core trauma that happened, right? So all personality disorders, all mental health disorders are all be, they all begin within the soul and we're going to teach you how I'm gonna teach you how it begins at a soul level. So mental illness is not just a brain chemical imbalance from a spiritual perspective. It is something that happens as a cause and effect of what's being created at a subconscious soul level. And this is how it goes. This is how it breaks down. Okay. So here are the personal story of mine.  Speaker 1 (10:37): I dealt with depression in my early twenties, my late teens and my early twenties. I had come from a, you know, a divorce family. I had really no structure growing up. My father had kind of gone off and had his, a different family. My mother was borderline alcoholic. She didn't really have much structure or principles in her life. And bless both of my parents. I'm very good with both of them now. Okay. We've done a lot of healing. I, uh, in junior high began to drink and try drugs. Luckily, I didn't like drugs, but when I was in high school, I was date raped. And then I began to spiral into an eating disorder, bulimia. And then I thought getting married would solve it all. And I had a full term stillborn and so on and so forth, meaning that I had a lot of traumatic incidences over the course of my life, some big, some mini, but the point is there was a lot of discord.  Speaker 1 (11:34): And when you take a look back into my past generations, my great grandfather committed suicide, died by suicide. As we're supposed to say, right? He jumped off what was called an is called suicide bridge in Pasadena, California. So needless to say that in my lineage and, and in my epigenetics and my DNA, there's already a lot of energetics of probably leaning towards having more sadness and more depression, potential. Okay. We have to know that we are our lineage. We are our parents, our grandparents, and all of our lineage. All the energetics comes down and science is even proving this. Now that through epigenetics, we are dealing with whatever we're dealing with. So collectively out there in the world, we are collectively traumatized. We know this through trauma informed work, and everyone is dealing with energetics, not to mention what's happening out in the world, right.  Speaker 1 (12:34): That, that amplifies the entire thing that we're going through. Okay. So what happens from a, from a mind, from a spiritual psychology, from a soul perspective, when we say mind, we're not talking about the mini mind, we're talking about the divine mind. We're talking about that part of us that is connected with everything. Okay? So let's break this down. Let's pretend that there was a, a new baby and the baby did not have a great grandfather that committed suicide. The baby actually came from a very healthy family. And basically they stumble into creating depression. How would this happen in this lifetime per se, from a spiritual perspective? So what happens is depression? It does not come on like over, over one incident per se. Depression is a culmination that happens over many creations generally. Okay. What happens at first, someone begins to get upset in their life.  Speaker 1 (13:30): Maybe something didn't happen that they want to happen. They want people places in life to be different. And they start getting upset about whatever happened, whether it be, you know, a breakup, whether it be whatever happens, someone doesn't show up to Christmas. So they always use that, that analogy, right? Whatever happens or doesn't happen, this person begins to get upset. And basically an upset is where you feel like you can't create what you wanna create in life. You're looking to the world to change instead of looking for yourself to change. So this begins an upset in mind, and this begins of course, energetic patterns. And it also creates, um, all different things at a soul level, upsets compound into sadness. Okay. When you're upset and you get upset long enough and you keep getting upset, then it compounds into sadness, really feeling like, wow, I'm sad.  Speaker 1 (14:20): I can't create what I really wanna create. Right? I'm the effect of life. And I am and feeling the effect. And I'm getting more and more sad that I can't create what I wanna create. Okay. This begins to have health issues, mental issues, so on and so forth. And it, and it impacts the neurological system. Next is sadness. When you feel like you're so sad and you still really can't create what you wanna create, you're feeling the effect of yourself. Maybe all the chemicals in your body now are, are aligning to what you've created in mind, right? And then it compounds into depression. So whether you wanna say you are prone to it in your biological system, the truth is that it was created in mind. Depression is created in mind and it begins with upset sadness and depression. It could, of course it can be from a zillion different things.  Speaker 1 (15:09): It doesn't matter if it's from war or from someone else, you know, passing away or big breakups. It doesn't matter. The cause of external. What matters is the cause of what happens in mind, what happens and what causes everything is first cause, which is spirit, which is the backing of all energy, which is you deciding and creating. Thomas shard is one of the masters in our industry. That was a lawyer over in the east, in India. And he began to break down universal law and understand the, the kind of cosmic Christ principles from a lawyer's perspective. How do we break this down of, of tangible things, right? So this is the deal. When somebody considers themself to not be the, I am pure potential and a creator, right? They instantaneously create the polarity of the entire universe into existence. So each, if you're dealing with a client, say you are a coach and, and you need to come and get accredited and certified in the work to actually do this.  Speaker 1 (16:16): Do not just work with somebody that's working with depression. You need to become a master coach and master this work front and back, make sure that you're doing this correctly. Okay. But if you're dealing with a client, say I'm dealing with a client with depression. Obviously, first of all, it would have to be one on one, because it would never put somebody dealing with depression in a group. And I would make sure they get signed off by a medical doctor so that I am actually making sure that there's not a chemical imbalance and they don't need kind of further help in a medical field. Okay. But let's reach Penn. They've been checked off by the traditional doctor. They're able to do trauma work and they're able to come in and do deep, deep, spiritual work. Okay. So what we're gonna deal with is we're going to begin to deal with all the upsets, all the sadness, all those things in our life.  Speaker 1 (17:02): We're gonna begin to slowly. It's like peeling away. The onion is what we call, right? So if you're getting to the core of the onion, right, you've gotta peel off all these layers. Sometimes it's red onion. Sometimes it's white onion and you peel off these layers, you peel off the layers and soon enough, you're all the way to the middle. And it's intense getting there, right? Your eyes, you're crying. You've got all this stuff going on. It's kind of like this with dealing with somebody, with depression, you've got to be able to peel away all the upsets, all the sadness, all the failed expectations, all their expectations of life and begin to restore the truth that they created. This that's a hard pill to swallow, right? But it's the truth. Depression is created in mind. It can happen in over a short period. It can happen over a lifetime.  Speaker 1 (17:55): It can happen over many, many lifetimes. But the truth is that you are not quote, quote, depression. Your client is not quote, quote, you or your client might be experiencing depression. But the truth is you are not depression. You have the ability to recreate your life. And this is what we know from so many masters. So many masters of being able to go to that point, Eckhart totally was one of them of the power of now, right? The new earth. He was in a moment where he is didn't wanna live anymore. And in that moment he heard the voice within that was deciding and saying, I don't wanna live. And he realized there was something, a, a mechanism, a witness within. And I know this for anybody that is thinking that they don't wanna live considering what is the point of all this? What's the meaning?  Speaker 1 (18:55): What are we doing here? Because I think we're all asking that at some level, maybe we may not be totally depressed, but maybe we kind of go, wow, what have we been doing? You guys, we're in the great awakening going through this shift right now. And these are the birthing pains. You guys, this is what it looks like to bur something new. We have to throw out what no longer Matt works for us. We have to take a quantum shift, a quantum leap. And we know energetically that nothing stays in the same field when it takes a quantum leap that this is what it looks like. So I'm saying, thank you, depression. Thank you, suicide. At whatever level, knowing that we never ever want anyone to die by suicide, but I know that collectively we are going through some serious pain. And I say, thank you.  Speaker 1 (19:40): I am so grateful for these dark times and moments that burs something new for each and every one of us. I'm. So I'm so happy for my son's friend who attempted suicide, who didn't, and then actually gets to have a second chance. It gets to re be reborn like the Phoenix rising. I am so grateful. And in this I say, these are the steps that need to happen. If you've got checked off by medical, by if you're ready to do spiritual work, that the answer is this. The answer always is to do your deep trauma work because in trauma work, the revelation is the, the, the revelation of understanding how you created your own limited beliefs that you created your own change, your own jail that you put yourself in that it doesn't matter what happened to you. That you always always have a new choice to create something new out of that.  Speaker 1 (20:34): So doing your deep trauma work is imperative for dealing with depression. Number one thing also to make sure you are in a healthy and stable environment. So if you are not, or if you are healing, please find a spiritual family. And number three is to know the truth. Every single day to get steeped in truth is imperative to no longer look to the world. The moment we hand ourselves over to the world, our source, over to the world, we will live in hell, okay. That's taking us out of the garden of Eden, right? We wanna always come back to the truth and never hand our power over to the world out there. Depression is probably not caused by chemical imbalance by the conversation. This is a big, big thing in the news and Harvard university. Really again, stating what causes depression onset of depression is more complex than brain chemical imbalance.  Speaker 1 (21:29): This is the truth we know and are so grateful for the truth to prevail right here. Right now, we are holding each and everyone. There are answers. This is the birthing of the new world right here, right now, maybe we know the truth of who we are. We are creators. We only create, and it is the only creative process. And we create through the mind through what is considered the subconscious mind, the one divine mind, that's connected with all of life, the collective and the cosmic. You are not an individual. You are the individual divine. You are the collective and you are the cosmic. We are together. And together we rise together. We stand divided. We fall, may we know the truth, you guys, and may you live your truth. So if you're somebody who is ready to get trained in spiritual psychology coaching, if you're ready to get trained in E four trauma method, if you're ready to really be in a community of likeminded, spiritual entrepreneurs, coaches, and leaders, practitioners, and so on, so forth, I invite you.
