Welcome to today's practice on the Daily Meditation Podcast. We have reached Day 6 of our "10 Minutes of Calm" series. Our emotional arc for this final day is Balance. Throughout this week, we have explored grounding, protection, and nurturing. Today, we weave these individual threads into a single, beautiful flow. Balance isn't a static state where everything is perfectly still; it is a dynamic process—like a dancer finding center amidst movement. As we face a world of constant shifts and uncertainty, our ability to find our "middle point" becomes our greatest strength. This is day 6 of a 7-day meditation series, "10-minutes of Calm: Meditations to Deal with the Uncertainty of Daily Life," episodes 3472-3478.

From Krista: A few months ago, I was invited to sit with four people sharing a very different Israeli-Palestinian story than that which comes to us in headlines. They are members of the Parents Circle - Bereaved Families Forum, a very special community. It's composed of hundreds of Palestinian and Israeli families, who despite having paid the highest price of the conflict between their peoples, choose to metabolize their loss as ground of shared suffering and possible reconciliation. I'm so grateful to share that conversation with you now. You will hear their various stories of a transformation of perspective and path. You will hear me invoke a notion of "deep truth" from physics that is vividly with me in this time. Terrible ruptures and escalating violence are part of the truth of what we see ourselves capable. But they are not the whole truth, not the inevitable future. Courageous experiments in healing and transformation are also a reality of our time. In a packed room in New York City, I think we all felt like we were witnessing something unimaginable if you only judge the potentials of humanity from the extreme actions that shape what we call the news. The Bereaved Families Forum is extremism in a life-giving, heart-opening key. We left that room — and may you leave this listening — feeling a little bit healed ourselves, with a hopefulness become more magnetic and more reasonable. This event was hosted by the American Friends of the Parents Circle – Bereaved Israelis and Palestinians for Peace. My conversation partners were Robi Damelin, Arab Aramin, Mohamed Abu Jafar, and Liora Eilon. Liora, who lost her son in their kibbutz on October 7, 2023, is one of the newest members of this group.  __ Listen to Krista's original conversation with Robi Damelin and Ali Abu Awaad in the On Being podcast feed; the episode is called “No More Taking Sides”. And learn much more about this beautiful community at theparentscircle.org. The American Friends community website is parentscirclefriends.org.

Following the initiation of Operation Epic Fury, there has been a lot of talk about a supposed MAGA split among Trump supporters. After all, the America First credo was no optional wars in the Middle East following disgust with the 20-year misadventures in Afghanistan and Iraq. But Iran is not Afghanistan or Iraq. This is a top-down, air-only military conflict whose stated mission objectives do not necessitate ground forces, and the MAGA base understands this, argues Victor Davis Hanson on today's edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.” “But nobody has ever seen a war in which one side destroyed the entire air force of the enemy, the entire navy of the enemy, and has got pretty much 90% of its ballistic missile arsenal nullified and probably 85% of the drones and decapitated the entire command and control of the military.”

In today's episode of the Daily Meditation Podcast, we utilize the ancient Prithvi Mudra (Earth Mudra) to stimulate the earth element within the body, providing a sense of physical and emotional "sturdiness." If you have been feeling overwhelmed by news, uncertainty, or the energy of others, this practice will help you reclaim your boundaries and return to a state of grounded safety. In this episode, you will: Learn how to perform the Prithvi Mudra to increase stability and reduce mental "drift." Engage in a guided visualization to create a personal "shield of presence." Discover why internal protection is the key to navigating global uncertainty without burnout. Practice a centering meditation to anchor your energy in the present moment.

Tommy and Ben unpack the latest twists in Donald Trump's chaotic regime-change war with Iran, which eleven days in is still plagued by shifting goals, contradictory messaging, and rising regional consequences. They break down the White House's confusing claims of victory despite unresolved threats—from the hundreds of pounds of highly enriched uranium still loose inside Iran to signs that Tehran may be mining the Strait of Hormuz. The guys discuss the war's mounting casualties, environmental devastation from Israeli strikes on Iranian fuel depots, and the dangerous escalation of attacks on desalination plants across the Gulf. They also dig into what we know about Iran's new supreme leader, Mojtaba Khamenei, explain why sending troops into Iran to secure its nuclear materials—or seize the oil hub of Kharg Island—would be a massive and risky military mission, and why Democrats in Congress must refuse to authorize more funding for the war. Plus: Israel's widening war in Lebanon, the U.S. military's new role in Ecuador's fight against drug cartels, and the election of a GenZ rapper-turned-politician in Nepal. Then Tommy speaks to Michael C. Horowitz, Senior Fellow for Tech & Innovation at the Council on Foreign Relations, about the Pentagon's fight with Anthropic and how AI is being used by the military.For Friends of the Pod the guys answer questions about whether assassination-as-foreign-policy is making a comeback, which US military interventions were actually successful in the post-WWII era, and, like…dude, what the fuck.Preorder Ben's book All We Say: The Battle for American Identity: A History in 15 Speeches and subscribe to his Substack here.

They call the US action an unprovoked war, stress that wartime information is unreliable, and predict a long conflict followed by a major psychological campaign to build US public support, similar to COVID-era shifts. They cite reported destruction or severe damage to expensive US assets in the Gulf, disruption fears in places like Dubai, and the Strait of Hormuz being effectively closed, taking roughly 20% of global oil supply offline and prompting early global moves like rationing and price controls. They warn government interventions can worsen economic fallout, discuss positioning in commodities (notably a corn ETF) and oil stocks, and advise Americans to "panic early," prepare for fuel/food shocks, possible cyberattacks, and broader supply-chain instability. 00:00 Market Shock and Oil Spike 00:38 Unprovoked War and Propaganda 04:10 Backlash and Free Speech Costs 07:10 Long War and Public Psyops 09:32 Gulf Escalation and Energy Crunch 13:02 Government Meddling and Trade Ideas 22:03 Global Shipping Norms Unravel 28:00 Prepare Early for Domestic Fallout 32:25 Boots on the Ground and Wrap Up

Bison once dominated North America, with estimates between 30 and 60 million once roaming and shaping the prairies and grasslands. Westward expansion and U.S. policy greatly diminished the species, and by 1870, there were no more bison in the state of Iowa. On this episode, we learn about the keystone species with wildlife experts Jim Pease and Pete Eyheralde, and how the species became a conservation success story. We'll also learn about a herd of 70 bison at the Neil Smith National Wildlife Refuge in Iowa from visitor services manager Nancy Corona.

Last season, hunting editor Andrew McKean and his buddies accessed a piece of public ground by flying in.

In this episode, Dillon shares insights from a book that's transforming how he leads Vertical Design Services: "The Mission, The Men and Me" by retired Delta Force commander Pete Blaber. As the company scales—bringing Kowabunga Studios fully in-house, planning their October summit, and navigating massive contract negotiations—Dillon breaks down the leadership framework that's helping him through the growing pains.The core principle is simple but powerful: evaluate every decision through three questions in order—Does it serve the mission? Does it serve the team? What's in it for me? When you put yourself last, you make better decisions.Dillon also explores the critical importance of trusting "the man on the ground"—empowering team members closest to the work to make decisions without becoming a micromanaging bottleneck. Learn why giving your team spending authority, decision-making power, and genuine trust is the key to scaling fast without losing quality.

Smartphones, social media, and interactive screens are something many parents today are thinking carefully about, especially when it comes to their kids. In this episode, I'm joined by Clare Morrell to talk about what the research shows regarding how these technologies affect developing brains and family life. We discuss practical ways families can approach technology differently, from trying a 30-day tech detox to delaying smartphones and modeling healthier phone habits as parents. If you're looking for thoughtful perspective and practical ideas for navigating screens in your home, this conversation will be the encouragement you need! In this episode, we cover: - Why smartphones and social media apps are intentionally designed to capture kids' time, attention, and data - The brain science behind dopamine hits and why interactive screens are uniquely addictive for children - Why even short amounts of screen time can affect kids' mood, focus, and behavior throughout the day - The surprising limitations of parental controls and why they rarely give parents real oversight - Distinguishing between passive technology (like watching a movie) and highly stimulating interactive media - How excessive screen stimulation can dysregulate a child's nervous system and mimic ADHD-like symptoms - What families experience during a 30-day digital detox and the behavioral changes many notice within weeks - Ground rules for a family tech reset, including which devices and activities are removed during detox - Why addressing our own phone habits as parents—and modeling healthier technology boundaries—plays a critical role in helping kids succeed - Alternative phone options that allow teens to communicate without introducing smartphone distractions - How some families delay smartphones until late high school or adulthood and what they observe long term - Navigating cultural pressures—from youth groups to employers—that assume every teen has a smartphone - The bigger vision behind a “tech exit”: raising kids who prioritize real-world skills, creativity, and relationships over digital consumption View full show notes on the blog + watch this episode on YouTube.

Is calm something you have to earn, or is it already waiting for you beneath the noise of the day? In today's episode of the Daily Meditation Podcast, we dive into a restorative 10-minute practice centered on the theme of Rest for the Day. As we navigate our busy lives, we often treat peace as a finish line we only reach once our to-do list is empty. Today, we shift that perspective. Through a focused guided meditation and the powerful affirmation, "Calm is my natural state," you will learn to set down the day's momentum and return to your internal baseline of stillness. This is day 2 of a 7-day meditation series, "10-minutes of Calm: Meditations to Deal with the Uncertainty of Daily Life"  episodes 3472-3478. ABOUT THIS WEEK'S SERIES Welcome to 10-Minute Calm—a gentle daily meditation series created to help you feel steadier, clearer, and more at ease in just ten minutes.

Through a supportive weekly arc—Release, Rest, Ground, Protect, Nurture, Balance, and Embody—you'll practice calming techniques you can return to anytime, including breathwork, affirmations, mudras, chakra focus, visualization, and a weekly review. You don't have to force relaxation or "fix" anything—this series is about building the skill of coming back to calm, one breath at a time. THIS WEEK'S CHALLENGE - The Calm Creator Challenge For the next 7 days, choose one tiny "carry cue" from each episode (a phrase, one slow exhale, shoulder drop, hand-to-heart, etc.) and practice it three times a day—morning, mid-day, and evening.

There's so much content out there about healing childhood trauma. And I'm here to tell you, from my heart to yours — it's a bitch. It's messy. It's long. It's layered. And even those of us who teach this work still cry, still get triggered, and still move through it in real time.In this episode, I share the four stages of healing that I teach my clients — and how they directly mirror what secure attachment in childhood was supposed to provide. Because the truth is, most of us didn't get what we needed. And now we get to learn how to offer that to ourselves.We explore reconnecting to sensations when you've been dissociated for years, what nervous system regulation actually means (and why so much of what's said online misses the point), how to feel emotions safely instead of suppressing them, how to recognize and meet your needs without shame, and why desire is often the most terrifying and liberating layer of all.This is not a quick fix episode. This is an honest one. Healing is not about becoming calm and never feeling anything again. It's about building the capacity to feel deeply and stay safe while you do.If you've ever wondered why this work feels so hard, why expressing yourself feels dangerous, or why asking for what you want feels like risking abandonment — this episode will help you understand the layers.Here is your free Triggers Practice-> Trigger to Rooted: A step-by-step process of working with your triggers: https://marinayt.com/trigger-2-rooted WORK WITH ME 1:1:❥Softening into self- 3 month 1:1 with Whats App Support:https://marina-yt.mykajabi.com/offers/PAWQhZHu❥❥1:1 Coaching with me: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfWcZM5s9c2OjOLwoGMI5jE6rh_JAzjN2d_vCtuVe7e3pVGxw/viewformDOWNLOAD FOR FREE:Stay or Go: 5 Clarity Questions to Reconnect with Your Inner Knowing: https://marinayt.com/stay-or-go-guideAttachment Practice: Discover the actual blocks beneath the surface so you can actually have the deep intimacy you crave: https://marinayt.com/attachment-practice Connect & Ground: 10 Incredible Somatic Practices for Nervous System Regulation: https://marinayt.com/connect-and-groundAlive & Aligned: 7 Embodiment Practices For Self Connection: https://marinayt.com/alive-and-alignedTrigger to Rooted: A step by step process of working with your triggers: https://marinayt.com/trigger-2-rooted VIEW MY COURSES & RESOURCES:https://marinayt.com/resources#/ CONNECT WITH  ME:Follow me on Instagram:⁠ ⁠www.instagram.com/marina.y.t⁠⁠ Subscribe to YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/@marinatriner Top Episode Quotes:“There's a lot of content out there on healing childhood trauma, and I'm here to tell you that it's a bitch.”“Regulation is not feeling calm all the time.

Welcome to Day 1 of 10-Minute Calm. Today's arc is Release, and your meditation features a gentle visualization designed to help you set down mental tension and emotional heaviness—without overthinking it.

This is a supportive practice for anyone feeling tense, overwhelmed, or "full" inside. Leave feeling lighter, clearer, and more settled as you begin the week.

On Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, hosted by Sayan, Michael Waters explores death as a transition—not a finish. If you're grieving, curious, or quietly afraid of the unknown, this episode offers a steadier lens. Michael shares how dreams, shamanic journeying, and “psychopomp” work shaped his understanding of what may happen after we die. You'll hear why some souls may feel “stuck,” how guilt and attachment can keep us tethered, and how a grounded spirituality can soften fear—so we live with more presence while we're here. About the Guest: Michael Waters shares lived experience in psychopomp work, animism, and shamanic practice. He and his late wife, Kathy, documented their experiences in a book titled The Bridge to Light and Love, which he offers for free. Episode Chapters: 00:09:29 — Death as transition: a quieter, braver question 00:11:07 — “A sense of purpose”: being asked to help souls cross 00:12:17 — The biggest misconception about the afterlife 00:13:00 — “There's a lot of movement”: roles, guides, and service beyond life 00:15:04 — Learning shamanism and entering “non-ordinary reality” 00:18:16 — Why some spirits don't cross: guilt, fear, and unfinished attachment 00:27:24 — The free book and how to request it Key Takeaways: Hold death with curiosity, not certainty—and notice how that changes your fear. If grief feels heavy, ask: is it guilt, attachment, or love looking for a new form? Pay attention to dreams as a gentle place where meaning can surface. Ground spiritual exploration with simple practices (breath, journaling, reflection). Let the idea of “life as a school” invite growth, not pressure.

What if real leadership starts the moment you stop performing strength? In Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, hosted by Sayan, Jenny C. Cohen unpacks what it actually means to “lead from wholeness”—beyond the trendy phrases. This episode is for high-achievers who look fine on paper but feel stretched, tired, or quietly disconnected inside. You'll hear grounded ways to come back to your body, spot subtle fragmentation, and begin leading with clarity, boundaries, and self-trust—without needing a full life overhaul. About the Guest: Jenny C. Cohen is a board-certified integrative neurosomatic practitioner and embodiment expert. She supports high-achieving women in quieting the inner critic and showing up with a more rooted, authentic presence. She also shares from lived experience as a breast cancer survivor and mother of fraternal twins. Episode Chapters: 00:05:49 — Leadership without proving: the “wholeness” reframe 00:07:21 — Why “authentic leadership” often stays surface-level 00:10:28 — Signs you're fragmented: time-loss, obligation-yes, no real rest 00:12:20 — A health wake-up call and the cost of self-abandonment 00:14:34 — Consciousness, interoception, and listening to the body's signals 00:17:47 — Devotion over discipline: morning grounding, sleep, and alignment 00:23:17 — Start here: 5 senses + breath, subconscious journaling, body-based yes/no Key Takeaways: Notice “fragmentation tells”: auto-yes, resentment, delayed hunger/thirst cues, avoiding honest dissent. Practice “devotion” (not punishment): a small daily check-in that builds self-trust. Ground fast: widen peripheral vision + track 5 senses + breathe for 60 seconds. Try subconscious journaling: ask a question, answer with your non-dominant hand. Use body feedback wisely: simple yes/no self-checks can reveal what you're overriding.

The young Mexican singer-songwriter Humbe is no stranger to posting short clips of his songs on TikTok. He feeds on the transparency between his artistic universe and the fans that flock to it like a moth to a flame. His authentic brand of soul, contemporary R&B, and Latin dance music triggers the algorithm time and time again, connecting with audiences across the globe. The latest album, Dueño del Cielo, marks another milestone in his artistic exploration, “looking into the sky when there's nothing left on the ground”. Filled with religious imagery, voice memos of lived experiences, and dreamy depictions of the chemistry behind human emotions, the album combines Humbe's candid lyricism with impressively passionate vocal performances.  Humbe's 2026 tour is ongoing with dates in North America, South America, and Europe. He takes a break from the road to play a stripped-down set with his band at our Manhattan studio. (- Sırma Munyar) Setlist: 1. Harry Stamper 2. Fantasmas 3. Morfina

Patrick Henningsen's path from the U.K. to Anarchapulco began in Tehran, where he reported on the pro-government rallies, featuring over two million people that swept the nation, despite the American press claiming the Iranian government was murdering tens of thousands of civilians.His presentation in Puerto Vallarta on the role of the independent press was immediately validated, as he sprang into action once again, this time covering the burning vehicles in front of his hotel.

Many leaders today are experiencing "Quiet Cracking," a state of Burnout 2.0 where we are expected to remain high-functioning while navigating empathy fatigue and physical exhaustion. The expectation is to "power through," but this move erodes our creative vision and ability to connect with others. If you feel this internal crumbling, know that you aren't failing; you are simply reacting to a culture where logic alone cannot solve our most polarizing global challenges. To help you find your way back, I am sharing a 7-minute somatic centering practice. Why We Center Centering is a practice that helps us stay present, connected, and open - even in the face of suffering. By returning to this physical place in our bodies, we: Counteract "Quiet Cracking". Move from automatically "powering through" to finding a grounding presence to be with what is emerging. Prioritize Human Sustainability. Align your body's biology with your actual capacity for leadership to find a pace that can sustain your available energy rather than deplete it. Reclaim the Present. Stop "leapfrogging" over your life by reconnecting with your tissues to land in the present moment, all that there is. Cultivate Resilience. Create a body-based home to return to when you are stirred or activated, so you respond rather than react to this moment. Practice Highlights In this guided session, you will: Expand Your Awareness. Soften your gaze to move out of the "tunnel vision" of crisis and toward imagining new possibilities. Connect to Purpose. Focus on your breath and your body as you answer: What matters most to me right now? to name the future you desire. Embody Dignity. Feel the length of your body as a reminder that your worth is not tied to your productivity, but simply to the fact that you exist as you are. Show Notes & Resources

What If Losing Everything Is the Very Thing That Leads You to Your Real Life? In this conversation with Sage Steele, I sit down with a woman who had her entire world flipped upside down in real time. Sixteen years at ESPN. A respected career. A single mom carrying the financial weight of her family. And then one moment on a podcast where she spoke her mind, and it all changed. What followed was suspension, public backlash, legal battles with The Walt Disney Company, and the kind of pressure most people only pray they never experience. But this episode is not about politics. It is about courage. It is about what happens when you are forced to choose between comfort and conviction. Sage opens up about the fear of losing everything, the weight of being the breadwinner for her kids, and the internal battle of standing up for herself after years of staying quiet. She shares what it felt like to be publicly attacked, to receive threats, to question herself in the darkest moments, and then to make a decision that changed the trajectory of her life. What moved me most was not just her resilience, but the legacy behind it. The story of her father, a West Point graduate who broke barriers and chose the “harder right” in the face of racism and rejection, will stay with you. That foundation shaped Sage more than she realized. And when she finally stood up for herself, her son looked at her and said, “Mom, it's about time you stood up for yourself.” That moment alone is worth listening to this entire episode. And here is the part I want you to hear if you are going through your own blow up right now. Sage lost her job. She walked away from the only career she had known for decades. She had no clear next step. But she surrendered control. She leaned into faith. She built her own platform. And in the middle of the uncertainty, she met the man who is now her husband in a moment that only God could orchestrate. The same pain that felt like devastation became the doorway to a new life. If you are afraid to speak up, afraid to make the change, afraid to lose what feels secure, this conversation will challenge you. Sometimes the thing you are clinging to is the very thing holding you back from the life you were meant to live. Key Takeaways: Why standing on principle can cost you everything, and still be worth it How to function and perform at a high level while your world feels like it is collapsing The difference between controlling outcomes and surrendering them How your children learn more from what you model than what you preach Why the hardest seasons of your life often become the most defining This one is about faith. It is about courage. It is about choosing the harder right. And it might just be the reminder you need that your setback is not the end of your story. Max Out.
