Podcasts about dedicating

Dedicating a little time to tune into your body fortifies you to better handle the stresses of daily life.How To Do This Practice:  Find your space: Choose a quiet place where you feel safe and comfortable. You can sit, stand, or lie down, whatever helps you relax. If sitting, rest your hands on your thighs; if standing, let them hang by your sides. Begin with your breath: Close your eyes. Inhale slowly to a count of four, feeling your belly and chest expand. Exhale to a count of four, letting your body soften. Notice the temperature of the air as it moves in and out through your nose. Start at your feet: Bring your attention to your feet on the ground. Notice sensations— pressure, warmth, tingling. Gently wiggle your toes. On the next breath, move your awareness to your ankles and calves, then your knees, thanking them for their steady work. Move up the body: With each breath, shift attention upward. Thighs, hips, and lower back, then your stomach. Feel it rise and fall with your breath. Continue up through your back and shoulders, releasing any tension there. Soften the upper body: Turn your attention to your throat, face, and head. Relax your jaw, smooth your forehead, and feel any soft tingling at the top of your head. Then bring awareness to your hands and fingers. Close with awareness: Take a few final deep breaths. On your last exhale, open your eyes gently. Notice how your body feels and carry that awareness into the rest of your day.

Allen and RD try Oktoberfest by Warsteiner. From the website: "Dedicating the world's biggest public festival to beer might seem silly to some, but we Germans are very serious about that – as serious as we are about our limited Warsteiner Oktoberfest Special Edition. This beer is brewed with hand-selected hops, Munich-type spring barley malt and extra-soft brewing water from the Arnsberg forest nature park. Its well-balanced taste will make you feel like you are part of the Oktoberfest, wherever you are."5.9% ABVThanks for watching!

Hosts Stuart & Michelle delve into the significant impact of Charlie Kirk's life, his tragic assassination, the ensuing debates about his legacy, and the huge impact his death is having. Dedicating the episode to Charlie Kirk, they look at the cross-over between political beliefs and faith and Charlie's highly successful work in debating and promoting a Christian biblical worldview, especially among young people.You'll find answers to:Is Christianity political?Should Christians be involved politically or can they remain neutral?What is the fundamental difference between the messages of the ‘right' and those of the ‘left' who are opposed to Charlie Kirk's message?What did his enemies fail to realise in assassinating Charlie Kirk?The episode also explores the Unite the Kingdom Festival organized by Tommy Robinson and its timing in relation to Kirk's death. They highlight the unexpected revival-like atmosphere of the Festival, its massive turnout, and implications for Christian engagement in societal and political issues. They note the challenging exhortation given by a pastor's attendance at the Festival, address the misinformation and false narrative around the Festival portrayed by the media to the public, and the need to move away from listening to ‘legacy' media. They compare the persecution and smearing of public figures who are revealing the truth to the persecution and smearing of Jesus, emphasizing the importance of Christians discerning truth, staying engaged in societal issues, and the interconnectedness of the gospel with contemporary life.ABOUT THE HOSTMichelle has been a believer for over 37 years, involved in full-time Christian ministry for 35 years in six countries on three continents, and is a master of transition and cross-cultural expert.

There are more things that you can vow or dedicate to the Lord than people or animals. God now codifies the laws of redemption for houses and land. Just like with redeeming an unclean animal, if you want to redeem a house, you have to pay a fifth higher than market value for it. The priests could sell it and they should get their valuation, but if the person dedicating it buys it back, they are required to pay more. For land, the value is based on the amount of seed that would be typically sowed. Good open prepared fields would take much more seed to plant than where there was a mix of rocks and trees in addition to open land. The land was valued strictly on its ability to produce grain. This makes sense because God has given us dominion over the land, not so we can set it aside and have it be useless. Man has responsibility to make land useful and not subject it to futility. The land is valued based on its productivity until the next Year of Jubilee. If he does not chose to redeem the land, then at the Jubilee it becomes irredeemable. It permanently belongs to the priesthood. If you vow land that was land you bought, then it goes back in the Year of Jubilee, just like it would if you had not consecrated it.

Who truly holds the responsibility for your company culture? More importantly, does that person have the authority to shape and steer their development, or is it merely lip service?   To remain competitive and forge your own future, your organization will benefit from a clearly defined, actionable culture plan that everyone rallies around. Dedicating time and effort to outline and evaluate this plan is essential for fostering a culture that evolves year after year, enhancing your competitive edge in the process. It all begins with defining your core values.   In this episode of the BOLD Business Podcast, Jess Dewell welcomes Brett Hoogeveen, Co-Founder of BetterCulture, to discuss the often-overlooked 20% of culture, exploring what it encompasses and how to leverage it to outshine your competition. They also explore how to embody your core values to cultivate a lasting, growth-driven organizational culture.   You'll discover who is best positioned to take ownership of your organization's culture, gain two foundational questions to evaluate the strength of your engaged culture, and understand the significance of internal conversations for staying aligned with your plan. —-----------------   If you want to identify business bottlenecks, the necessary skills, the initial actions to take, the expected milestones, and the priorities for achieving growth, try the “Growth Framework Reset” approach. This will help you to keep learning and growing while working strategically on your business. --------------------   You can get in touch with Jess Dewell on Twitter,  LinkedIn or Red Direction website.

Today we are honored to sit down with retired DEA Agent and Founder, lead facilitator of Wake Up/Level Up Margaret Bedolla. Margaret walks us through her journey, growing up the daughter of an Agent, and living abroad and being exposed to true poverty and the excitement of the hidden dangers of her father's work in a different country. Starting the DEA at 24 she found herself working on the tragic and high profile case of the kidnapping and murder of DEA Agent Kiki Camarena. Dedicating her life to the Administration and immersing herself in several long term cases she found a passion and knack for expanding investigations to hunt down the source of the drug trade. As her career unfolded, she found another unique talent, which her natural compassion and empathy complimented, in working in the DEA EAP program. Like everything she does she puts her heart and soul into helping others on the Trauma Team to help her peers and their families that were struggling with the daily grind of the job and critical incident response. After leaving the DEA she continued serving to provide education with Wake Up/Level Up leadership courses as she travels the country meeting with different organizations and first responder agencies to help them look at leadership through a different lens. Margaret and retired DEA SAC, David Downing, are now presenting their unique leadership courses to the Dallas Police Command Staff. She is extremely humble, extremely fierce, and still after over three decades, still leading with a servant's heart. Wake Up Level Up- Facilitated Leadership Conversations  Investigation discussed: Enrique "Kiki" Camarena Salazar was a DEA agent who was kidnapped and murdered by the Guadalajara Cartel in Mexico in 1985. His death sparked a major U.S. investigation and strained relations with Mexico. The case has been the subject of various media, including the miniseries "Drug Wars: The Camarena Story" and the docuseries "The Last Narc"

Dirtiest Parts Of Your Hotel According To The HousekeepersDecorative pillows - These don't get washed often, if at all. High-touch surfaces - Hotel room phones are the most unsanitary item. Higher-end hotels may give remotes, light switches and phones a wipe down before every check-in, but don't count on it.Carpets - They tend to trap dust and bacteria.Hidden contamination spots - This is stuff tucked away, like barware inside drawers, that may be handled by guests without housekeeping staff knowing. Also, bathtubs with jets, only take a bath at a hotel if it's a “super luxe five star hotel and only if it's a non-jet bathtub.”Hard to reach spots - High ceilings, chandeliers, ceiling fans, curtain rods and shower heads, which may be overlooked during a standard hotel room cleaning.Things Classy People DoAdopting stress management techniques. Classy people have stress in their lives, they just use techniques such as yoga or meditation to keep away anxiety .Learning to control their impulses. They keep their cool and stay even keeled, even when emotions are at its highest. Practice delayed response techniques, like counting to 10 before reacting.Dedicating time to being alone. Just like they show up for other people, classy people show up for themselves, too.Doing things that scare them. Rather than running from the things that make them uncomfortable, they do them. They face their challenges.Cultivating a healthy inner circle of people. They know that having a healthy inner circle will help them promote healthy habits. They also know that toxic people will stagnate their own growth.How Pets Keep Your Mind Sharp As You AgeRecent research suggests that owning a cat or dog can actually slow down cognitive decline in older adults.   Daily Walks = Brain Gains: Taking your dog out for regular walks doesn't just keep             your legs moving…it also boosts circulation and reduces stress, both of which                 support brain health. Routine, Routine, Routine: Pets thrive on consistency, and guess what? So does your brain. Feeding, grooming, and playtime create a structured day, which has been linked to better cognitive functioning in older adults. Conversation Starters with Fur: Walking a dog or sharing funny cat stories is a great way to connect with others, and socializing is key for brain health. Emotional Support: Pets are amazing at sensing your mood and offering comfort just when you need it. That emotional bond can lower stress levels. Mental Stimulation Through Play: Playing with your pet keeps you engaged and alert, whether it's tossing a ball or hiding treats. These mini-challenges promote problem-solving and coordination. They Make You Laugh, And That's Good for You: Laughter has been shown to lower stress and stimulate brain activity, and pets are basically fuzzy comedians. Second Date Update: Jonah and Lila went for Thai food in Albany. He thought things went really well. They are both avid readers, into poetry nights and open mic. Now, she's Casper.

Dedicating your life to scientific pursuits can have countless benefits for humanity, but you have to bear in mind the potential drawbacks. You could study something before its dangerous effects are known, like Marie Curie, invent something monumentally destructive, like J. Robert Oppenheimer, or accidentally fall through a time hole to the court of King Arthur like Dr. Vivian Morgan, the protagonist of the film we're here to talk about today.Luckily, Vivian isn't the sort of person to get bogged down in things like 'trying to understand what happened' and 'attempting to get back to her home time', and instead throws herself wholeheartedly into her two passions: speedrunning the industrial revolution and murdering her rivals at court. But can she truly make life better for the serfs of England? Can Arthur be persuaded that the King's Law isn't always right? And why does Merlin keep spinning in a circle, emitting colourful gas?

In this episode of Palisades Gold Radio, host Tom Bodrovics interviews Josh Phair, CEO of Scottsdale Mint and Wyoming Reserve. The discussion centers on the current state of global finance, particularly the role of gold as a reserve asset and its implications for central banks, markets, and investors. Phair highlights that central banks are increasingly turning to gold as a risk-free asset, replacing treasuries on their balance sheets. This shift is driven by de-leveraging and de-risking strategies amid concerns over fiat currency inflation. He notes that countries like China have been leading this trend, with significant imports of gold into the U.S., signaling a global "gold race." The conversation also touches on Basel III regulations, set to take effect in summer 2025, which require banks to hold more capital and physical gold. Phair explains that owning ETFs does not provide the same risk-free status as holding physical gold, prompting central banks to prioritize its acquisition. Phair discusses the recent LBMA delivery issues, where metals were being requested at unprecedented rates, leading to delays. He suggests this was a combination of factors, including tariffs, market dynamics, and regulatory preparedness. Phair also explores the role of gold in a potential monetary reset, suggesting that while it won't happen overnight, gold is likely to play a significant role due to its status as a trusted asset. He advises investors to follow the lead of central banks and accumulate physical gold as a hedge against uncertainty. Time Stamp References:0:00 - Introduction0:48 - Gold Vs.

E394 – "Inner Voice: A Heartfelt Chat with Dr. Foojan Zeine." In this episode, Dr. Foojan Zeine chats with Sean McMann. Sean was recruited right out of college to work at one of the largest data firms,  and he embarked on an eight-year journey from a new graduate to a consulting director. Privileged to see behind the curtain of some of the largest corporations today, he recognized the system was broken and quit at the height of his career, when working the least but making the most money he ever had, betting everything, including his money, reputation, and time, on trying to fix the problem of the corporate jungle. He shares his insights in his new book, Hacking the Corporate Jungle: How to Work Less, Make More and Actually Like Your Life.    www.seanmcmann.com # 1 on the 20 Best California Mental Health Podcasts list by FeedSpot. https://podcasts.feedspot.com/california_mental_health_podcasts/  Check out my website: www.FoojanZeine.com, www.AwarenessIntegration.com, www.Foojan.com Summary Corporate Power and Societal Impact Sean McMahon, a former data firm consultant, discussed his views on the corporate world and its societal role. He expressed concerns about the inefficiency and power of large corporations, arguing that they prioritize profit over people and contribute to societal issues. Sean suggested that corporations need to shift their goals from profit above all else to something else, but hasn't yet figured out what that should be. He also mentioned his book, "Hacking the Corporate Jungle," which explores these ideas. Dr. and Sean discussed the potential for corporations to evolve and adapt to changing societal needs, the inefficiencies in corporate structures, and the need for a shift in focus toward a more human-centric approach. He proposed that with efficiency and time saved, individuals should focus on activities that make them feel alive and contribute to their mental health, highlighting the need for a more efficient structure that benefits all, not just a few. They also discussed the potential for individuals to create their businesses and the importance of understanding the value of time in maintaining mental and physical health. They discussed the importance of self-discovery, identity, and fulfillment in one's career. Dedicating one's life to a corporation can lead to unhappiness and a lack of creativity. Sean suggested that people allocate some of their peak creative hours to their corporation while using the rest for personal creativity and self-care. They discussed their journeys and the factors that have shaped their lives. Sean shared his experiences since quitting his job, including a period of depression and a journey to process trauma, which led him to find hope and excitement in his daily life despite the uncertainty of his future. Dr. then shared her experiences working in a sales role and discovering her identity. Dr. decided to leave the role after realizing it required her to become a "barracuda" to make more money. Instead, she became a therapist, created her own companies and nonprofits, and eventually developed her own models. Dr. discussed the challenges of growing a collaborative community, highlighting the difficulty of maintaining structure while allowing individuality and adaptability. Sean agreed, noting the contrast between hierarchical and network structures and the need to shift towards a more networked approach to problem-solving. Both emphasized the importance of human collaboration and adaptability in complex problems. Sean McMahon, author of "Hacking the Corporate Jungle," discussed the importance of listening to one's inner voice when feeling discontent in their job. He emphasized that it's about being grateful for the job and exploring the reasons behind dissatisfaction. Sean encouraged everyone to contact him if they wanted to discuss their concerns.

Focus on what you can control: the value and connection you offer during this period. [02:30] Pre-Offer Engagement: Your role is to show recruits that “more is available” with you. By tipping the scales in your favor before the offer is made, you plant the seeds of desire for your team. [04:30] Post-Offer Drop-Off and How to Avoid It: Leaders often disengage after an offer is accepted. Avoid this by maintaining regular and meaningful communication until their start date.

Share updates and exciting developments from your business to keep them motivated. Offer tangible examples of the value and opportunities they'll experience once they join.

In this episode, we're going to talk about 5 traits of high achievers and how to incorporate similar habits into our lives. When you spend time with inspiring, high-quality individuals, you suddenly notice traits that would be well-worth adopting. I attended a conference earlier this year where I noticed such high-achieving individuals. I observed five distinct things that set them apart and helped lead them to success as business owners. Here is how you can incorporate similar strategies to elevate your own personal and professional success. Action Plan: 1 - Avoid negativity: High achievers refuse to engage in criticism, gossip, cynicism, and complaining, as these behaviors can be draining and unproductive. 2 - Embrace challenges: You should be open to receiving and giving challenges and questions from others, as this can lead to valuable insights and personal growth. 3 - Celebrate failure: Failure should be viewed as a necessary step towards success, and high achievers wear it as a badge of honor, encouraging you to take bigger risks. 4 - Prioritize learning: Dedicating time each day to learning, whether through books, podcasts, or other resources, can help you stay focused, motivated, and on track with your goals. 5 - Establish routines: Incorporating daily routines into your life, even if they start small, can help you maintain productivity, focus, and a positive mindset.
