Teresa's work has appeared in over 100 scholarly journal articles and a variety of other outlets, including Harvard Business Review, as well as several edited books.

The first thing that comes to mind is a stubbornness that would come up in conflict with my husband. The stubbornness would come up in two parts. I would need to be right and he would need to be right. That would create attention and a stubbornness sensation. Thoughts On Breathing Some people may not be aware of the relationship between breathing and their HRV, which is heart rate variability. We know we want it to be high, but what does that mean? This phenomenon is called asinalsodal arrhythmia. As you breathe in, your heart rate increases, and as you breathe out, your heart rate decreases. This happens because as you breathe in, your heart rate is increasing and increasing, and the compensatory mechanisms in your body at that point say oh no, our heart rate is going up; we need to make sure that we're managing our blood pressure. We dilate our blood vessels to keep our blood pressure constant as our heart rate increases with the in-breath. Then, your vagus nerve kicks in to bring in your parasympathetic nervous system to try to calm your body down, and your heart rate decreases with your out-breath.

Staying present is key; mindfulness helps me do that. Many people avoid emotions, but staying present lets me truly feel and understand them. Mindfulness reveals nuances; what seemed like one emotion may be another. By leaning into emotions, I gain deeper self-awareness and empathy for others. It's about feeling and understanding, which mindfulness facilitates beautifully. Thoughts On Breathing Breathing is a powerful tool—it triggers the sympathetic nervous system, helping us calm down, a technique I often employ as a yoga instructor. Lengthening the exhale is key; it shifts us into the calming parasympathetic system naturally. Breath work offers versatile solutions; a few deep breaths anywhere can work wonders unnoticed. In tense situations, like confronting a bullying boss, breathing can center and calm us, improving our ability to handle adversity. True peace isn't about a peaceful environment but finding calm within chaos. Even amidst turmoil, maintaining inner peace is possible through centeredness and groundedness, a skill accessible to all through mindful breathing techniques. Bullying Story Growing up, I faced bullying from adults because of my intuitive nature. They accused me of plagiarism when I used my intuition to complete homework. Despite doing my best, I was always in trouble at school. Over time, I realized that bullies were often in pain and disconnected from their true selves. Mindfulness taught me to respond with compassion and transparency, guided by intuition. Remembering our divine essence makes it harder to be bullied or to bully others. Though it's not easy to turn the other cheek, mindfulness helps me refrain from reacting impulsively, denying bullies the reaction they seek. It's about understanding my emotions and responses, even in the face of adversity.

Send us a Text Message.Step into the shadows with us and special guest Matt Sanderson, a distinguished author of the eldritch horror RPG Call of Cthulhu, as we convene for a spine-tingling, two-part roundtable discussion. Our personal forays into the game's chilling depths provide a backdrop to our broader conversation, which spans the intellectual challenges and invigorating horrors that have gripped players for over four decades. While we revel in the Lovecraftian lore, we also share tales from our latest gaming adventures across diverse realms from the neon-lit streets of Cyberpunk 2077 to the mythical lands of Theros.With Matt's insider knowledge, we dissect the evolution of Call of Cthulhu, reminiscing about our initial brushes with its dreamscapes and the transition to tales infused with fatalistic dread. The discussion turns to the artistry of running such a game, where creating connection and atmosphere is as crucial as the haunting narrative itself. We reflect on the exceptional scenarios that have kept us riveted, like 'Grace Under Pressure', 'The Walker in the Wastes' and 'The Burning Stars,' and the guidance that the rulebooks offer for weaving a tale that's equal parts horror and intrigue.Our conversation rounds off with a probe into the nuances of the Seventh Edition, comparing it to its antecedents and lauding the streamlined combat and character creation systems that enrich the storytelling experience. We then broach the delicate balance of fear and player agency, contemplating strategies and emotional considerations unique to horror RPGs. As our eerie journey concludes, we cast a glance at the versatility of Lovecraftian settings, from the Dreamlands to visions of 'Cthulhu in space,' showcasing the mythos' boundless potential to terrorize and enthrall.

In this episode, Mark interviews Kevin J. Anderson about his writing and the new approach he is taking to incorporate Kickstarter into the launch strategies for some of his indie-published titles. Prior to the interview, Mark shares a personal update, comments from recent episodes, and a word from this episode's sponsor. Learn more about this self-publishing/WIDE-publishing focused cruise. In their interview Mark and Kevin talk about: How Kickstarter has completely upended (in a good way), Kevin's book release strategies Kevin's first novel coming out in 1988 and all the various publishers he has worked with over the years The "Perfect Storm" that was brewing in the book industry when indie publishing became a realistic and viable option Starting to publish his own books (mostly backlist titles he got the rights back to) in 2009 after founding WordFire Press with his wife Rebecca Moesta Kevin's belief that this is the best time to be a writer How Kevin does a little bit of everything. He has a New York literary agent, he works with several major publishers, he indie publishes, and he continues to explore new opportunities that digital publishing offer The way that Kickstarter didn't just open a new door, it completely blew it down, along with a few walls too Dean Wesley Smith's perspective that helped to change Kevin's mind about what Kickstarter was all about Kevin's "Adams Family meets The Naked Gun" series of Dan Shamble Zombie PI novels, and the history of how it started off as a series with a major publisher, flopped, then Kevin got the rights back and did something truly stunning with it once he applied Kickstarter Kevin's first Dan Shamble Kickstarter which brought in 23 times the intial amount he was asking for, and that it paid him more than 6 times the advance he'd rec'd from a major publisher for the last Dan Shamble book he'd done with them The Dragon Business (The Princess Bride meets Dirty Rotten Scoundrels) Kickstarter that brought in 20 times what he'd been asking for The Persephone Kickstarter that Kevin did with Writer/Director Jeffrey Morris Kevin's latest Kickstarter which is a 7 Volume Set of over 130 of his published short stories published over 50 years Writing his first short story when he was 8 years old Publishing his very first short story when he was 14 The personal introductions that he wrote for every one of the stories in this 7 book collection The various levels and Kickstarter rewards he is planning for this Kickstarter The remarkable fact that, despite having published 180 novels with 58 of them being international bestsellers, no publisher would ever even consider publishing a 7 volume hardcover set of Kevin's complete short stories. That he can do this via Kickstarter is a significant paradigm shift How Kickstarter can replace the old "advance" model from traditional publishing The special thing Kevin is doing for all the backers of this latest Kickstarter The Kickstarter will be going live on April 30th for 3 weeks and 2 days And more . . . After the interview Mark reflects on Kevin's use of short, effective and very clear log lines to describe two of his series. Links of Interest: Kevin J.

Rush can be a very polarizing band. Even for those who "get it" there are eras that some fans disown or are slow to warm to. The 80s for Rush may be the most divisive period as everyone's favorite remaining power trio had seemed to turn in their heavy metal and progressive roots for synthesizers and shorter, more radio friendly tunes. After swaying perhaps too far into the techno-lands with 1982's Signals, Rush came back to self-produce (with a little help) 1984's Grace Under Pressure in order to establish a more evenly distributed sound. And without any big singles on the record, it still managed to go platinum in the US and their home country of Canada. You'll hear the hallmarks of Rush throughout the album - the soaring vocals and furious bass work of Geddy Lee, the big riffs and blistering solos of Alex Lifeson and baterista brilliance from The Professor Neil Peart. But it's Peart's lyrics which go way beyond standard pop or rock storytelling as he wades into topics like nuclear war, life & death, freedom & fear, all set against the backdrop of The Cold War. Incorporating synths may take some of the heavy out of the sound but the lyrics deliver in an outsized way and offer more proggy accents than even their 1970s heyday. And The Wolf even gets a little emotional talking about the final track, Between The Wheels, as one of his favorites from the time he first heard it live almost 30 years ago. If you like Rush and don't know this one or dismissed it long ago, we hope you'll listen with fresh ears because the music is inspired and the lyrics are as relevant today as ever.

Welcome to our second installment of our Deep Dive series on all the awesome albums celebrating their 40th anniversary i.e. from '84. This week we're looking at Rush's "Grace Under Pressure". This was a divisive effort as the legendary trio shifted from 70s prog to a more 80s look and sound. This album didnt spend a lot of time on our turntables. So we enlisted the services of our resident Rush connoisseur Mark Buell. Mr. Buell plys his trade with Connect Humanity, an organization dedicated to bring the internet to communities facing that challenge. So we put our heads together to straighten out all the whys and wherefores of this amazing record. In our "News, Views and Tunes", we discuss "The Godfather" film and hail the return of "The Savage Sword of Conan" magazine. Musically, we crank some new + used from Razor, Vulture, Stretch Marks, Horndal, Convict (Can), Corpus Vile and Antichrist Siege Machine. And in our "Indie Spotlight" we spin long defunct Canadian punkers D.A.C. Horns Up!

As people fight over what little resources exist, they try to grab whatever they can while they still survive!” We look into who the characters are, how this works with Shades of Vengeance's other projects, and what else is coming from them in the months ahead!

Episode Highlights:09:11 - I surround myself with people who are doing really well in business and I learned from them. That's what I didn't do and the mistake that I made the first two times was I didn't surround myself with a community of people that were supportive and understood what it's like to be an entrepreneur. I didn't get the help that I needed. I didn't invest in myself, and now I do. 17:54 - Things that you can delegate to people, delegate. And I know people have tight budgets. That's why I say hire your teenage kids, if you have kids that you can hire, but also look into hiring a VA. There are a lot of VAs that are overseas that you could hire to do some of these personal touches for you, even if it's send an email directly to a person and not a mass email.23:58 - It makes it easier for me to help a larger amount of people because I see there are so many people who have just not even thought about their customer experience, and you're also going to find out how to build your customer journey from the very beginning, where they find out about your business to the time they purchase from you and beyond.
