Tim delivers a passionate message focused on John 13:34–35. He begins by introducing the biblical context of the passage, noting that it takes place within the "Upper Room Discourse," where Jesus delivers His farewell address to His closest followers right before finishing His earthly ministry in Jerusalem. Within this critical final charge, Jesus issues what He calls a "new command": “Love one another as I have loved you so you must love one another.” Tim explains that the command to love is not historically "new" to the disciples, as they were deeply familiar with the Old Testament laws to love God and love their neighbors. What makes it revolutionary is the person giving the command—Jesus—and the fact that He places Himself at the very center as the ultimate definition and source of this love. Tim emphasizes that a person cannot truly understand or define biblical love unless they intimately know Jesus, warning against letting the secular world dictate the definition of love. To show how biblical love departs from the world's transactional version, Tim unpacks the profound terminology used across Scripture. In the Old Testament, the primary word is hesed—a complex, multi-dimensional concept combining loyalty, kindness, promise-keeping, and mercy. It represents a covenant commitment where God consistently leans His blessing toward humanity despite their unfaithfulness. In the New Testament, the Greek word is agape, which refers to a sacrificial, deliberate laying down of one's own conveniences for the sake of others. Merging these concepts, Tim defines biblical love as a holy, self-giving commitment that expresses itself in tangible actions to benefit others, remaining entirely independent of feelings or the recipient's behavior. The challenge of this command becomes evident when looking at the intense diversity of the disciples Jesus gathered. The group included competing brothers, rough fishermen, a corrupt tax collector, a politically radical zealot, and women delivered from evil spirits. Tim notes that the modern church mirrors this exact same messy, diverse family dynamic. Believers are called to love people from vastly different backgrounds, including those whose political or social views might normally frustrate them, and even those who become outright enemies. Ultimately, Tim declares that this supernatural, unconditional love is intended to be the primary distinguishing mark of a Christian. While human nature relies on transactional relationships—cutting people off when they are no longer beneficial—spirit-filled love sticks with people sacrificially, which acts as the ultimate verification to the world that someone truly belongs to Christ. Grounding the congregation in the reassuring truth that God's anchor-like love never changes based on our performance, he challenges believers to look at the sacrifice of Christ and be daily compelled to extend that same sacrificial grace to the difficult people in their own lives. Discussion Questions for Practical Application Defining Love on God's Terms: Tim explicitly noted that we cannot let the world define love for us, defining biblical love instead as a commitment expressed in tangible actions independent of feelings. In what ways does the world's definition of love (e.g., based on emotional connection, compatibility, or transaction) creep into your own relationships? How can you consciously shift your mindset to view love as a deliberate agape commitment this week? Loving the "Diverse Disciples" in Your Circle: The original disciples included people with massive political and social divides, much like the modern church family. Think of someone in your immediate faith community, workplace, or family whose behavior, opinions, or background genuinely test your patience. Based on Jesus' command, what is one practical, tangible action you can take to show them biblical love, regardless of how you feel? The Trap of Transactional Relationships: Tim observed that it is natural human behavior to cut people off the moment they stop benefiting us or making us happy. Is there a relationship in your life right now that you have emotionally "cut off" or distanced yourself from because it became inconvenient or difficult? How does remembering Christ's unwavering hesed toward you alter your perspective on that person? Living as a Visible Replica: According to John 13:35, supernatural love is supposed to be our defining mark that proves to the world we are disciples. If an outside observer looked strictly at how you treat a difficult spouse, a tough neighbor, or a demanding boss, would they see a distinct reflection of Jesus? What is one specific area where you need to pray for the Holy Spirit to implant the power to love sacrificially?

In Episode 291 of the Fit Father Project Podcast, Dr. Anthony Balduzzi makes the case for something most men have completely stopped doing — spending real, intentional time connected to nature.We are the most nature-deprived generation in human history, with most people spending 90% of their time indoors, and Dr. A explains exactly why that matters for your health.This episode walks through three powerful, science-backed pillars: grounding (direct skin contact with the earth), forest bathing (mindful time among trees), and sunshine (the master regulator of your body clock).Dr. Anthony explains the physiology behind each pillar — from red blood cell zeta potential and free radical neutralization, to phytoncides boosting natural killer cells, to morning light setting your circadian rhythm, cortisol response, and melatonin production.If you've ever felt more alive, more relaxed, and more human after a walk outside or a trip to the beach, this episode explains exactly why — and gives you a simple, practical challenge to implement this week that costs nothing and could change how you feel every single day.Rate & Review – If this episode inspired you to get outside and reconnect with the natural world, please take a minute to rate and review the Fit Father Project Podcast.

Dr. Ketam Hamdan joins host Myrna Young to explore the transformative power of mindset and mental health on the "Transform Your Mind" podcast. They discuss the difference between change and true transformation, the role of self-awareness, and how unresolved emotions can shape behaviors unconsciously. Dr. Hamden shares insightful strategies for cultivating presence and self-reflection, underscoring the importance of knowing oneself to facilitate growth. Tune in to discover practical tools that can help shift from survival mode to a more fulfilling and conscious life.Throughout the discussion, Dr. Hamdan provides practical insights into the complex relationship between unresolved emotional issues such as fear, anger, and trauma, and how they manifest silently in individuals' thoughts and actions. They delve into the significance of self-awareness, reflection, and grounding practices as tools for personal growth and transformation. Dr. Hamdan shares her professional experiences, such as the impact of introspective practices on patients' mental states, and emphasizes the importance of acknowledging one's emotions to foster a mindset primed for growth rather than stagnation.Key Takeaways:A core barrier to transformation is seeking external validation for one's feelings rather than owning them internally.True transformation is marked by an inability to revert to old behavioral patterns, contrasting with temporary change.Awareness of and reflection on personal patterns are essential for breaking cycles of self-sabotage and emotional stagnation.Practical tools, such as grounding techniques and introspection, play a crucial role in achieving emotional equilibrium and cognitive transformation.Recognizing and nurturing one's inner "operating system" or belief patterns can lead to lasting personal growth and wellness.Timestamp Summary0:02 The Journey from Change to True Transformation10:06 Awakening to Conscious Awareness and Transformative Human Connections14:39 Overcoming Emotional Barriers Through Self-Awareness and Acceptance21:44 Transforming Weight Loss with GLP1 Medications and Hers24:01 Brain Scans Reveal Hidden Causes of Relationship Challenges31:37 Unresolved Emotions Manifesting in Subtle Relationship Dynamics37:30 Biohacking Techniques for Grounding and Presence43:57 Transforming Your Mind to Transform Your LifeSponsors of this podcastWith Wegovy at Hers, lose up to 20% or more of your body weight when combined with diet and exercise.

When a panic attack hits, the hardest thing in the world is to believe it will pass. Your heart is racing, your chest feels tight, and your brain is screaming danger.

This episode is sponsored by Deel.Hire, manage and pay – anyone, anywhere: https://www.deel.com/nickdayhr/In this episode of @thehrldpodcast Nick Day is joined by Jackie Dube, Chief People Officer at The Predictive Index, with over two decades of experience helping organizations unlock performance through behavioral science and talent optimization. Grounding her work in a simple but powerful belief, that happy, aligned people do better work and live better lives, Jackie brings both the science and the human heart to one of the most pressing challenges facing workplaces today.Jackie brings a rare blend of behavioral expertise and people leadership into the world of HR and organizational performance. Together, Nick and Jackie explore why so many employees, despite better tools, more flexibility, and greater leadership investment than ever before, still feel a deep sense of emptiness at work, and what leaders can actually do about it.This conversation unpacks what it truly means to align people with their work from the inside out. Nick and Jackie discuss why engagement and meaning are not the same thing, how the four behavioral drives of dominance, extraversion, patience, and formality determine what energizes or drains each employee, and why the same task can be deeply motivating for one person and completely demotivating for another. They explore how hiring for speed quietly erodes culture, why interpersonal conflicts at work are almost always behavioral mismatches rather than personality clashes, and how leaders can use the three whys technique to reconnect people to organizational purpose.They also cover the four forces of engagement, the role of pulse surveys in detecting disengagement early, and how AI adoption is creating a new wave of workforce fear that behavioral science is uniquely equipped to address. The discussion highlights PI's J-curve framework for navigating change, why transparency around AI matters more than most leaders realize, and how understanding what drives each individual is the foundation of a truly high-performing team.In a world shaped by remote work, rapid AI adoption, and growing disconnection, this episode examines why behavioral science may be the most practical and powerful tool HR and L&D professionals have in 2026 to restore meaning, motivation, and performance across their organizations.A must-listen for HR leaders, L&D professionals, and anyone ready to stop guessing what their people need and start building workplaces where people are genuinely wired to thrive.Enjoyed this?

Thursday May 28, 2026Week after PentecostToday's episode reminds us that God is gathering His people, grounding them in truth, and strengthening them to endure opposition.In **Ezekiel 37:21–28**, God promises to restore and reunite His scattered people under one shepherd and one covenant of peace. No longer divided or defiled, they will dwell securely with God's presence among them forever. It's a powerful vision of restoration, unity, and the faithful reign of the coming King.In **1 John 2:18–29**, believers are warned about deception and false teaching in the last days. John encourages the church to remain rooted in the truth they received from the beginning and to abide in Christ. Those who truly belong to Him will persevere in faith and walk in righteousness, guided by the Spirit's anointing and discernment.Finally, in **Matthew 10:16–23**, Jesus Christ prepares His disciples for the realities of mission in a hostile world. They are sent out as sheep among wolves, called to be wise, innocent, and courageous in the face of persecution. Yet Jesus assures them that the Holy Spirit will give them the words they need and that God remains with them through every trial.Together, these passages remind us: God is building a restored and unified people, truth must be guarded and lived out faithfully, and followers of Christ are called to endure with courage as they carry His message into the world.

On Tuesday, May 26, 2026, the Sonesta White Plains Downtown played host to the Business Council of Westchester's acclaimed Circles of Influence gathering. This premier mixer successfully united the region's leading executives, entrepreneurs, and industry innovators for a dynamic evening centered on strategic relationship-building and fresh economic prospects. Beyond traditional corporate mingling, attendees immersed themselves in unique, hands-on showcases presented by fellow BCW members, sparking collaborative dialogue and reinforcing the organization's vital role as a catalyst for local business growth and interconnected regional success.During the event, host Andrew Castellano interviewed Patrick Coyne of Alpine Saxon Woods, a wealth management firm that has served Westchester County for over three decades and manages more than $850 million in assets. Grounding his corporate philosophy in relationship-building, Patrick noted that the core of the investment industry is trust, an asset best cultivated through honest, face-to-face interactions like those offered at the Business Council of Westchester. He praised the organization's relaxed, low-pressure environment for allowing regional business neighbors to establish authentic friendships long before they ever need to call upon each other for commercial services.

https://jo.my/uymenbStatic Control, Grounding, and Dust Prevention in Dry FacilitiesStatic can seem harmless. A little snap from a handrail. A shirt clinging to your sleeve. A spark you barely notice. But in a dry warehouse facility, static can build up quickly on conveyor belts, rollers, sorters, plastic totes, and moving product.That spark has a job. It wants to jump. If it comes into contact with dust, vapors, or flammable liquids, the result can be serious. Fast. Dangerous. Preventable.A strong Safety Culture pays attention to the small signs before they become big events. Static control and grounding aren't paperwork items. They're daily habits that protect people, property, and production.Here are a few tips to assist you with Static & Grounding in Dry Warehouses: Watch conveyor and sorting systems for static trouble. Dry air, fast belts, plastic parts, and constant friction can create static buildup. Report repeated shocks, snapping sounds, product sticking, or odd dust attraction. Those are warning signs. Keep grounding and bonding points clean and secure. A loose clamp or dirty contact can break the path to ground. Ensure approved grounding points are used in areas where flammable liquids are present. Never remove or bypass grounding connections to “save time.” Control flammable liquid storage areas. Keep containers closed when they're not in use. Store them only in approved areas. Make sure bonding and grounding steps are followed during transfer, pouring, or dispensing. One spark can be enough. Manage dust near electrical panels. Dust can block airflow, hold heat, and increase fire risk. Keep panel areas clean, dry, and clear. Don't stack products, tools, or trash in front of electrical cabinets. Access matters during both normal work and emergencies. Report dry air and repeat static issues early. If workers get shocked often, don't shrug it off. Tell supervision so the facility can review humidity, equipment condition, grounding, and cleaning practices. Small reports prevent big losses. As always, these are potential tips. Please be sure to follow the rules and regulations of your specific facility.The best facilities don't wait for smoke, sparks, or shutdowns before they act. They train people to notice the little things. They fix clamps. They clean dust. They ask questions before a shortcut becomes a fire.Static control is really about discipline. Grounding is really about trust. Dust control is really about respect for the energy around us every day. You may not see electricity working, but you better believe it's there.Thank you for being part of another episode of Warehouse Safety Tips. Until we meet next time - have a great week, and STAY SAFE!#Safety #SafetyCulture #StaySafe #SafetyFirst #SafetyTips #StayAlert #SafetyAwareness #ElectricalSafety #EnergyControl #StaticControl #GroundingSafety #FacilitySafety #DustPrevention

In this week's episode, Amanda Tooke explores the funky energy that so many people are feeling right now and what you can actually do about it. From planetary shifts and retrogrades to fear-mongering in the media, there is a lot floating around at the moment, and when you are sensitive, you feel it. This episode is all about cutting through that noise, coming back to yourself, and trusting that the universe really does have your back.Amanda starts by reframing what off-days actually mean. That heaviness, that scrambled feeling, the noisy mind, it is not always a sign that something is going wrong. Often it is intuitive information, somebody else's energy you have absorbed, or simply your body telling you it needs water, sleep, or fresh air. Amanda also introduces one of her favourite questions to ask when the energy feels off, is this mine? If you are empathic or sensitive, you pick up energy from family, work, social media, and crowded places without even realising it. The episode then shifts into life purpose, another big theme coming up for people at the moment. Amanda offers a really gentle perspective here. Not everyone is here to do something huge and world-changing, and your purpose can change throughout your life.The episode ends with a beautiful reminder that the universe is organising things for you behind the scenes.Host Bio:Amanda Tooke renowned Spiritual Teacher and NLP Manifestation Coach is the host of the Angel Mystic Podcast.

Everyone wants intuition. Purpose. Manifestation. Peace. Connection. Answers. But most people are trying to build their lives from a completely ungrounded nervous system. We live in a world that keeps pulling us out of our bodies and into stress, distraction, overwhelm, comparison, fear, overthinking, and information overload. Then we wonder why we feel anxious, exhausted, disconnected, and all over the place. In this episode, we're talking about grounding. Real grounding. Not just “go stand barefoot in the grass” grounding. We talk about: what grounding actually means why so many spiritual people still feel unstable the obsession with upper chakras while ignoring the roots nervous systems, presence, and living in reality instead of constantly escaping it why grounding is the foundation for healing, intuition, clarity, purpose, and real transformation We also talk about community and connection… because roots were never meant to grow alone. Nature already knows this. Trees communicate and support each other through the mycelium beneath the surface. The strongest roots are connected roots. And honestly? I think humanity has forgotten that. This conversation is an invitation to slow down, come back into your body, reconnect to what actually matters, and build a foundation strong enough to hold the life you say you want. Because grounding isn't what limits your spirituality. It's what allows it to become real. New episodes of Cacao Conversations drop weekly. Sip. Connect. Awaken. Hey! Thanks for listening!

What happens when a medical doctor trained in oncology becomes the cancer patient and then transforms into a primary caregiver for his own father? In this moving continuation of our conversation with clinician, survivor, and care partner Dr. Achim, we dive into the profound emotional architecture of navigating a cancer diagnosis. Dr. Achim opens up about the vast difference between his first experience as a helpless care partner for his father's prostate cancer in 2010, and his recent role guiding his 85-year-old father through aggressive lymphoma and groundbreaking CAR T-cell therapy.Samira and Dr. Achim explore a topic rarely discussed openly in the oncology world: the long, arduous journey of rebuilding trust in your body after it feels like it has completely betrayed you. Dr. Achim shares how shifting from anger to radical self-love and mastering the art of strict presence—learning to live purely in the current moment—became his ultimate armor against the paralyzing fear of cancer recurrence. Whether you are a patient looking for tools to manage treatment intervals, a male patient looking for permission to voice your fears, or a caregiver trying to balance medical advocacy with emotional support, this episode offers an essential roadmap for finding steady footing when your world is turned upside down.Chapter Codes:00:00 Grounding in the Present Moment00:44 Dr. Achim's Transition From Patient to Caregiver02:15 The Reality of Being a Cancer Care Partner06:46 Navigating Aggressive Lymphoma & CAR T-Cell Therapy09:57 Healing the Feeling of "Body Betrayal"13:49 Mind-Body Visualizations During the Treatment Time Gap15:36 Overcoming the Fear of Cancer Recurrence19:33 Mental Health Stigmas for Male Cancer Patients25:25 Life with No Evidence of Disease (NED)Key Takeaways from This Episode:The Caregiver Shift: Why true caregiving isn't about having all the answers or trying to "fix" the disease; it is about steady, radical presence and holding a hand through the confusion.The "Betrayal" of the Body:Understanding the mental shift required to stop treating your body like an enemy and realizing that it is still actively fighting for you.The Power of Visualizations:How Dr. Achim used a 5-day Carl Simonton method seminar to train his mind during the critical "time gap" between diagnosis and treatment.Connect with Manta Cares & Patient from Hell:Learn more about our mission: Manta Cares WebsiteDiscover your personal cancer roadmap: Patient from Hell Podcast HubSubscribe, rate, and review on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and YouTube!Disclaimer: This podcast, show notes, and newsletter are for general informational purposes only and do not constitute the practice of medicine, nursing, or other professional healthcare services, including the giving of medical advice.

Most of us are walking around in a low-grade state of fight-or-flight all the time, and we don't even realize it. It looks like the tight jaw in the morning, the exhaustion that doesn't lead to sleep, or the feeling of being on edge even on a good day.  These are signs of a nervous system that never got the signal that it's safe to come down. In this episode, I'm sharing a lesson from my new free video course called Everything is Terrible: An Anxiety Toolkit for the Age of Doomscrolling. It's a five-lesson toolkit for people who care deeply about the world and are quietly exhausted by the weight of it. Each lesson is a standalone tool you can use when you need it. This episode shares an excerpt from one of these lessons, covering: -What's actually happening in your body when you're stuck in fight-or-flight -How to manually activate your parasympathetic nervous system even when the external world is still chaotic -Two specific breathing techniques you can use anywhere to send your body the "all clear" signal -Grounding phrases for when your body has settled but your brain is still spinning.

This episode is just me, Jeff Hinshaw, offering a reflection on the Taurus New Moon and the larger collective shifts we are moving through. I explore how this lunation marks the first Taurus New Moon without Uranus in Taurus since 2019, and what it means to begin integrating years of disruption and innovation around money, the body, stability, technology, and the Earth itself, while Uranus now in Gemini shifts the revolution into language, communication, and perception. I share observations from the collective field around simplification, mobility, and changing life structures, alongside increasing relational and mental intensity as different worldviews meet. From there, I move into Taurus embodiment practices, including a somatic grounding meditation through the body and third eye “bull's eye” center as a way of reconnecting intuition with physical presence and nature. We also touch on the archetypal image of “The Lightning” from the Marseille tradition of the Tower card and how it reframes disruption as revelation. I also explore how Sedna and the Pleiades are part of this wider collective shift into Gemini, highlighting how mythic and celestial bodies are participating in this reorientation of voice, memory, and perception. Then, we close with grounding reflections for this new cycle.   Workshop Announcement Sedna Workshop: Enrollment opens on Friday, May 1st (Scorpio Full Moon) for a three-hour deep-dive workshop: Topics: Sedna's myth, altar building, tarot associations (notably, The Hanged One/The Tethered One), astrological significance, personal and collective healing. Workshop materials will be delivered on the Taurus New Moon (May 16) as the Sun prepares to align with Sedna. Listeners interested in astrology, tarot, and deepening their connection with Sedna are invited to sign up. New Offering – Cosmic Mix Tape The Cosmic Mix Tape is officially here.

In this solo episode, I'm sharing a very personal update about the evolution of the podcast, the deeper meaning behind its new name, and what this next chapter means for all of us. I talk about why I had to step away in order to see more clearly, what I discovered about my relationship with The Adult Chair, and how coming back to it from a new place of clarity and wholeness changed everything. I also explore two powerful teachings that are at the heart of this work: the illuminated path and the importance of feeling your emotions. I share how learning to stay grounded, present, and connected to yourself can transform every relationship in your life, because the most important relationship you will ever have is the one you have with yourself. Key Takeaways Growth is ongoing, and we are always evolving into new versions of ourselves. Peace is a more sustainable goal than chasing temporary moments of happiness. Every relationship reflects something about our relationship with ourselves. The illuminated path is the path of the higher self, where each next step becomes clear when we stay present and grounded. The ego wants certainty about the future, but real alignment comes from trusting the next step. Feeling your emotions requires being in the body, not just living in the mind. Grounding, body awareness, and curiosity are essential tools for emotional healing and inner clarity.

Free Guided Meditation for Calming Your Anxious Mind 10-Minute Body-Scan Meditation for AnxietyQuote:I've had a great many troubles in my life, most of which never happened.-Mark TwainSummaryIn this episode of the Anxiety Coaches Podcast, we delve into the pervasive habit of mental rehearsal that many anxious individuals engage in, often unconsciously. I share insights on how we tend to fixate on potential troubles—running through endless scenarios in our minds of what could go wrong. A significant focus of our discussion centers around the pitfalls of this "rehearsing trouble" practice, which can include anticipating rejection, imagining illnesses, and preparing for losses that may never occur. This mental activity not only stirs up unnecessary distress but also physically manifests in our bodies, leading to symptoms of anxiety and panic, all triggered by thoughts of events that haven't taken place.I emphasize the need to recognize that this script of catastrophic thinking doesn't serve our well-being. Instead, it often exacerbates feelings of unease and panic over situations that remain purely theoretical in our minds. The brain, in its protective nature, believes that rehearsing these painful scenarios will keep us safe, but I challenge this notion, questioning whether this form of preparation genuinely benefits us or simply weighs us down with borrowed suffering.Throughout our conversation, I share the metaphor of "mental rehearsal of catastrophe," shedding light on how this habit can lead to what I call "nervous system fatigue." The toll it takes on our energy and peace of mind is a significant concern. I reflect on how often we miss out on the present moment in our attempts to prepare for every possible outcome—a loss that may be even more painful than any future hardship itself. While anxiety can make us feel hyper-vigilant, I encourage listeners to find a way to detach from that excessive vigilance that proves exhausting and intrusive.#AnxietyRecovery, #MentalHealth, #Mindfulness, #GinaRyan, #AnxietyCoachesPodcast, #BorrowedSuffering, #Presence, #Resilience, #SelfCare, #MentalWellbeing, #Catastrophizing, #InnerPeace, #OvercomingAnxiety, #NervousSystemHealing, #Grounding, #StressManagement, #EmotionalWellness, #LivingInTheNow, #PositivePsychology, #SelfTrust, #WorryPostponement, #MentalRehearsal, #AnticipatoryAnxiety, #EmotionalRegulation, #MindBodyConnection, #Vagus nerve, #CalmConscious, #StopWorrying, #PanicAttackRecovery, #InnerCalm, #AnxiousMind, #SelfCompassion, #HolisticHealing, #NervousSystemRegulation, #PeaceOfMind, #MentalClarity, #CopingSkills, #PersonalGrowth, #WellnessJourney, #HealingJourney, #MindfulLiving, #OvercomingFear, #PsychologyTips, #CognitiveReframing, #MentalStrength, #InnerStrength, #Tranquility, #HealthAnxiety, #SocialAnxiety, #SelfSoothing #ACPSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
