In this episode, Michael Tremblay and Caleb Ontiveros explore Aristotle's ethics, focusing on his doctrine of virtue as the golden mean. They break down how Aristotle's view differs from Stoicism—from his three-part soul to his idea that virtues are skills developed through practice. Learn why Aristotle saw courage as a balance between cowardice and rashness, why feeling the right emotions matters as much as doing the right thing, and how this ancient framework applies to modern life.The conversation unpacks key concepts from Aristotle's Nicomachean Ethics: habituation, the role of pleasure in virtue, and why context matters in ethical decisions.(08:29) Aristotelian Happiness(10:47) Parts of the Soul(12:44) The Kinds of Virtues(14:04) Virtue as Skill(18:39) Habituation(19:42) The Golden Mean(26:07) Good Reason For Bad Feelings(28:24) Meaning of Virtue(31:37) Self-Reinforcing Virtue(35:31) What the Golden Mean Means(45:02) Key Ideas For Practice(48:03) Differences with Stoicism*** Subscribe to The Stoa Letter for weekly meditations, actions, and links to the best Stoic resources: www.stoaletter.com/subscribeDownload the Stoa app (it's a free download): https://stoameditation.com/podIf you try the Stoa app and find it useful, but truly cannot afford it, email us and we'll set you up with a free account.Listen to more episodes and learn more here: https://stoameditation.com/blog/stoa-conversations/Check out our Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@stoaphilosophyThanks to Michael Levy for graciously letting us use his music in the conversations: https://ancientlyre.com/

Goals Should Align with Core Values, Not Just Outcomes Goals often fail because they are disconnected from deeper values. It's not enough to chase weight loss or fitness goals; they must resonate with personal values like feeling energized, being a better parent, or living a fuller life. When goals align with values, they provide long-term motivation and direction. Process Over Outcome for Sustainability Focusing solely on outcomes like weight loss can lead to burnout and unsustainable habits. Instead, building habits and enjoying the process ensures consistency and long-term success. For example, enjoying workouts and nourishing your body becomes the foundation, not the sacrifice. The Danger of Optimizing for Outcomes Alone Over-optimization often leads to self-sabotage. For instance, restrictive dieting to achieve rapid weight loss might cause binge-eating cycles, leaving you worse off than before. The key is balance and sustainability. Self-Awareness is the True Superpower Successful individuals prioritize self-awareness. Understanding triggers, emotions, and behaviors enables them to navigate challenges effectively. This introspection is crucial for overcoming setbacks and achieving meaningful progress. Perfectionism as a Hidden Saboteur Perfectionism often paralyzes action. Many avoid starting new habits or goals because they fear doing them imperfectly. Embracing imperfection allows growth, experimentation, and eventual mastery. The Fallacy of Sacrifice Equals Success The outdated "no pain, no gain" mentality rewards suffering over strategy. True progress comes from smart, intentional actions, not unnecessary hardship. Focus on manageable steps rather than extremes. Building Habits Gradually Leads to Long-Term Success Starting with where you are and building incrementally is key. For example, jumping into intense 5K runs without preparation leads to burnout. Similarly, adopting drastic dietary changes without foundational habits is unsustainable. The Importance of Emotional Awareness in Decision-Making Emotions influence daily decisions, often unconsciously. Recognizing and managing emotions can prevent self-sabotaging behaviors like overeating or skipping workouts, fostering healthier habits. Acceptance of Struggles Reduces Suffering Pain is inevitable, but suffering is optional. Accepting that challenges are part of the journey allows for better problem-solving and resilience rather than getting stuck in cycles of guilt or resistance. Goals Rooted in External Validation Often Fail Setting goals based on societal expectations or others' opinions leads to disconnection and dissatisfaction. Reflect on intrinsic motivations to create goals that truly resonate. Habituation and Motivation in Goal Setting Over time, novelty wears off, and motivation declines. Having a "North Star" or guiding purpose ensures commitment even when excitement fades, helping to avoid cycles of inconsistency. Adding Value to Your Life Instead of Taking Away Instead of focusing on restrictions (e.g., cutting out foods or fun), emphasize adding positive elements like strength, energy, and enjoyable activities. This mindset shift promotes growth and positivity. Reflecting on Progress to Build Confidence Acknowledge and celebrate small wins to reinforce progress. Many people skip this step, leading to burnout and loss of motivation. Embracing Failure as Part of Growth Failure is a natural part of learning. Instead of avoiding it, use failures as feedback to adjust and improve. This builds resilience and adaptability. Life is a Marathon, Not a Sprint Progress isn't about quick fixes but long-term consistency. Viewing each phase of life as a new level rather than starting over fosters a growth mindset.

Jason Morse was born in Hartford, CT on December 2, 1970 where his father worked as a bridge inspector. Shortly after, his parents and only sibling, an older brother, returned to the small town of Cherryfield, Me, where his father had been raised and 5 miles from his mother's hometown. Jason was a martial artist throughout his school career, earning his black belt at 17 years of age, and won many trophies at local tournaments. Jason went on to graduate with a degree in Emergency Medical Technology and worked on a local volunteer ambulance for 2 years until he had a job opportunity in Southern Maine. He worked for his father for the next 23 years pouring concrete for residential and commercial foundations, eventually buying the business with his brother. After having a Bigfoot sighting, he dove into doing research, having several other sightings. When covid hit and he lost work, he wrote and published a book. A western novel, "The Road To Leadville". He was also in a documentary, "Bigfoot Witness: The Jason Morse Story". There will be another book published next year as a follow up on "The Road To Leadville" and another possible documentary.The Road To Leadvillehttps://www.amazon.com/Road-Leadville-Jason-Morse/dp/B08WJPMXDGBigfoot Witness: The Jason Morse Storyhttps://tubitv.com/movies/655623/bigfoot-witness-the-jason-morse-storyClick that play button, and let's unravel the mysteries of the UNTOLD!

How do plants communicate using sound? How do they remember previous stimuli that have proven not to be threat, when at first they seemed like one? Where is the memory encoded considering they have no brain? What are the implications for biology of plant memory? In this episode we cover the ground breaking topics in plant cognition studies of: plant intelligence, behaviour, memory and communication. The type of experiments presented here have never really been done before, because there has always been an assumption in plant science that the cellular cognition that all living cells have, relies solely on light, touch or chemical interactions; so it doesn't really permit for plant behaviour, memory and consciousness. So with my guest today, the first scientist to bypass the assumptions and try these tests, we're going to discuss her experiments with plants; that clearly show not only basic memory and the corresponding updated behaviour based on that memory, but even pavlovian memory, i.e. associative memory that requires arbitrary stimuli to take on meaning to the plant. Obviously all of this has massive implications for distributed memory and memory beyond brains. We're also going to get into plant medicine and other indigenous approaches to connecting with plant consciousness; and what plant communication and biophilia in general might do for our relationship to the natural world as we face imminent biosphere collapse. My guest is of course, the research associate professor of Evolutionary Ecology at several universities in Australia, Monica Gagliano. She's published over 60 scientific papers, across the fields of Ecology, Plant Cognition, Plant Communications and Marine Ecology. She is also the author of the books “The Language of Plants: Science, Philosophy and Literature”, and the highly celebrated,“Thus Spoke the Plant, A remarkable Journey of Groundbreaking Scientific Discoveries and Personal Encounters”. What we discuss: 00:00 Intro 05:00 The consensus on Plant intelligence & communication. 09:20 The difference between reacting and responding in cognition. 10:00 Bio-acoustic communication between plants. 21:07 Possible methods for plants to percieve sound. 22:00 Response to gravity may be similar. 23:30 Her plant memory experiment with Mimosa. 27:15 ‘Habituation' learning: screening out non-useful stimuli. 32:15 The connection between hardship and accelerated adaptive learning. 37:50 Her ‘Pavlovian' associative memory experiment with peas. 46:10 The Implications of plant memory for modern biology. 49:25 Where is memory stored without a nervous system? 52:30 Monica's ethical crisis in animal studies. 01:00:00 ‘Pavlovian' associative memory experiment with peas. 01:01:30 ‘Dieta', amazonian plant communication practice. 01:05:00 Shamanic interface with plant wisdom, particularly for healing. 01:08:00 Reductionist materialist pushback is representative of the colonial history of abuse of nature. 01:11:00 Indigenous science and a new book in the making.

Humans like to play, right? We play cards, we play baseball and basketball, we go fishing or take a hike into the mountains. It's our play time, time to recharge, refocus, relax. Did you know animals like to play, too? And many times, our playgrounds infringe on wildlife habitat. But how does that affect their behavior? Does it affect their behavior? Today's guest, Dr. Joel Berger, a wildlife biologist based at Colorado State University but who considers the world's wild places as his playground, joins us today to talk about our human recreation and the impacts it has on wildlife.

In this episode, I cover Meditation 10 from Book 2 of Meditations, where Marcus Aurelius reflects on the comparison between faults driven by anger and those driven by desire. He references Theophrastus, who argued that errors rooted in pleasure and appetite are graver than those caused by anger. I explore this idea, explaining how Stoics view actions driven by desire as more deliberate and habituated than those caused by reactive emotions like anger. When we act out of anger, it is often a response to external stimuli, a proto-emotion that we can manage. However, when driven by pleasure, it is a deeper habituation that reflects ongoing indulgence in vice, making it harder to correct. I also discuss the translation issues around the term "effeminate," which appears in some versions of this meditation. I explain how the term used in Greek more accurately means "morally weak" rather than a critique of femininity. Marcus' message is not about gender but about the danger of succumbing to our desires without rational consideration, a habit that can lead to greater moral failings over time. The episode further delves into the concept of habituation as a critical Stoic tool. I emphasize that Stoicism is not just a philosophy but a practice that requires repeated, deliberate actions. Through consistent practice, our responses to situations become reflexive, turning virtuous behavior into a habit. This is why true Stoic progress involves moving beyond conscious effort to a stage where virtue becomes second nature, a goal that even I am still striving to achieve. "Like a true philosopher Theophrastus says, when comparing, as men commonly do compare, various faults, errors of appetite are graver than errors of temper. For clearly one who loses his temper is turning away from Reason with a kind of pain and inward spasm; whereas he who offends through appetite is the victim of pleasure and is clearly more vicious in a way and more effeminate in his wrong-doing." - Meditations 2.10 -- Go ad-free : https://stoicismpod.com/members Follow the print publication : https://stoicismpod.com/print Take the free course : https://understandingstoicism.com Order my book : https://stoicismpod.com/book Source Text : https://stoicismpod.com/far Learn more about your ad choices.

Humans are creatures of habit. It's even wired that way in our brains. But what impact does habituation have on personal happiness?Tali Sharot is a professor of neuroscience at University College London and researches habituation, adaptation, and other cognitive biases. Her latest book, Look Again: The Power of Noticing What Was Always There co-authored with Cass Sunstein explores how habituation leads people to stop noticing both good and bad things they're accustomed to and the benefits of breaking free from those habits. Tali and Greg discuss why people are more likely to feel less excited about good things over time, how taking breaks from those habits can restore the good feelings, and optimism bias discrepancies in stressful environments.*unSILOed Podcast is produced by University FM.*Episode Quotes:What is optimism bias?20:41: Optimism bias is our tendency to expect to encounter positive events more on average than we do and underestimate our likelihood of experiencing negative events in our lives. So, underestimating our likelihood of going to prison, getting a divorce, being in an accident, and so on. It is not necessarily how we will react to those events. So, it's not that I think if I get divorced, then I won't feel bad. It's mostly, at least in my studies, about what is the likelihood of the event.Can bad news be good news?41:07: Bad news doesn't necessarily mean that it results in a negative feeling for you. It can result in a positive feeling, and that's why it seems like people are attracted to bad news when, in fact, it's not really bad news. So, all this is like celebrity breakups; to some extent, it can make people feel good because, well, everyone has problems. So now I'm feeling better about my own life.Three main motives for searching information40:12: It's instrumental utility, cognitive rewards, and affective rewards. So, that's our tendency to want good news over bad news. Now, all three will drive your decisions on whether to seek information or not. So, you will for sure seek a lot of negative information if the cognitive reward is high and instrumental utility is high. But all three things matter together. And there are ways for us to tease them apart and show that all of them matter. So, that's why, despite the fact that you feel like you go after bad news, you still have the tendency to want good news.The difference between optimism about our own lives and pessimism about the external world33:39: What we see is that people are optimistic about their own future, the future of their family, and the future of their kids, but they're not optimistic about the world at large. In fact, they are somewhat pessimistic about global issues and about the abilities of the leaders. And let me give you a few examples. Let's take AI. So, people say AI will take more jobs than it will create, and 75 percent of people say that. It's three out of four, but only one out of four, 25%, say their job is at risk. Out of every four people, three say that they're very optimistic about the future of their family; again, 75%, but only 30% say that the next generation will be doing better than the current one.Show Links:Recommended Resources:Daniel GilbertLaurie SantosAaron HellerDaniel DennettMilgram experimentGuest Profile:Faculty Profile at University College LondonHer Work:Look Again: The Power of Noticing What Was Always ThereThe Influential Mind: What the Brain Reveals About Our Power to Change Others The Optimism Bias: A Tour of the Irrationally Positive Brain
Come to a Dehoarding Accountability Zoom Session: http://www.overcomecompulsivehoarding.co.uk/ticket Subscribe to the podcast: https://www.overcomecompulsivehoarding.co.uk/subscribe Podcast show notes, links and transcript: http://www.overcomecompulsivehoarding.co.uk/ With Dr Jan Eppingstall, today I delve into the fascinating world of habituation – which you might be familiar with as clutter blindness, but it's so much more than that! – and its impact on our daily lives. We look at the role of habituation in hoarding, and offer practical techniques to revitalise our perspectives. Join us as we unravel the complexity of habituation and its relationship to hoarding, with valuable insights into improving our quality of life. Habituation and its Impact Definition of habituation Evolutionary and innate nature of habituation Habituation as a form of non-associative learning Role of habituation in daily life Individual experiences with habituation Positive, neutral, and negative aspects of habituation Habituation in hoarding behaviour Habituation and autistic people Effects of habituation on daily tasks and decision-making Habituation in relation to clutter blindness and hoarding Overcoming Habituation Techniques for combatting habituation Changing daily routines and habits Using different modes of transport Performing everyday tasks in different ways Looking at space through a different perspective The need for a variety of approaches to combat habituation Techniques to break habitual patterns The importance of stepping out of your comfort zone The importance of mixing up approaches and embracing what works Habituation in Mental Health and Therapy Deliberate use of habituation in mental health treatment Exposure therapy and fear ladder approach in treating fears and phobias Gradual exposure therapy for specific fears Maintenance of progress in overcoming fears and phobias Implications of habituation for individuals with autism spectrum disorders in relation to hoarding Insight into habituation and its impact on hoarding behaviour Techniques and advice for combating habituation Examples of habituation in daily life Experience of habituation in hoarding behaviour and clutter blindness The impact of habituation on decision-making and compensating for clutter Connection between habituation, working memory, and people-pleasing behaviour Understanding the impact of habituation on decision-making and perceptions Strategies for breaking habitual patterns and experiencing joy Mindfulness and gratitude in daily life Rekindling appreciation for familiar places and seeing them through fresh eyes Encouragement to find joy in life and invest in experiences over material possessions Non-associative learning: Becoming accustomed to stimuli. Habituation serves necessary and neutral purposes. Skipping stages and creating fear ladder for hoarding. Clutter organization leads to joy, not regret. Habituation in hoarding leads to inaction. Removing obstacles can make daily tasks easier. Visual cues and externalising tasks aid memory. Self-sufficiency Observing and changing habits leads to improvement. Experiences linger longer than material possessions. Habituation is normal and can be positive. Habituation is the process of becoming less responsive to repeated stimuli. Habituation serves purposes: prevent overwhelm, allow focus, survival. Good, neutral, negative aspects. Overstimulation and stimming behaviors. Reliance on visuals becomes less effective. Visual reminders and working memory limitations prompt use of external systems to record and remember tasks. Some people have a mindset of overcoming odds and finding resourceful solutions. Changing habits and mindset is key for improvement. Observing and reflecting on how things are done can lead to finding better, more efficient ways. The key is to have a mix of approaches for habit change. Variety is essential and embrace what works, even if just for a bit. The mind values experiences over possessions for lasting impact. Habituation is normal, can be positive, neutral, or negative, and can be used to reduce distress.

When you listen to this episode, I will be at the prime year of my film. I have finished my documentary about a person who volunteered for the Army and died. In the credits I'm listed as a screenwriter, director, cameraman and editor. There are many things I don't like about this film; some things I would do differently now, some I would remove, some I would add, but it's still a film I am not ashamed of. It is compromised in many ways- I didn't have the opportunity to go everywhere I wanted. I didn't have the best cameras. I shoot with what I could afford myself. But I understand that probably none of the filmmakers, even the real ones, are ever 100% satisfied with what they have filmed. If this film becomes publicly available, I will share the link with you. Though, I'm not sure if you will find it interesting. However, I might be wrong. Maybe it's better to share all possible information about the war with the world so that people don't forget what's happening to us more precisely, not to forget, but not to become accustomed to the war. It seems to me that in the world, this war is already perceived as something usual, something to be accepted, but that's not the case. I want to counteract with habitation to war. I want to make sure that even now people understand what it is, terrible and wild, that there is nothing normal in war. I don't have many tools for this, only this podcast and my Substack page. I decided to make my texts there open to everyone. So read, share them, recommend them to your friends. If possible, subscribe to me on substack or donate on Go Fund Me or Buy Me A Coffee. This will help the creation of the new texts and episodes and in general, it'll support me. I still haven't recovered from the illness. The terrible stress simply destroyed my mind, and I'm piecing it back together bit by bit. So your support will be welcome, as always. I translated for you the text, what I wrote in Ukrainian a couple of weeks ago. Today it is published on Substack. Sorry, that my episodes are so short right now. It's really hard for me to make them longer and fuller at the moment. I hope this is temporary.

Happy Satiated Saturday! Recently, I put out a post on social media discussing how do you know when you need more or less structure with food. It was a clear yes that you all wanted me to go into more detail on this. It has been a common suggestion when healing your relationship with food that you need to eat all foods. Food habituation refers to a psychological phenomenon where repeated exposure to a particular food, especially ones you have denied or restricted, decreases the desire to consume it. Habituation occurs when the novelty or excitement associated with a food diminishes with repeated exposure, leading to a decreased preference for or interest in that food. This is why a practitioner might tell you to just keep eating a food you feel like you can't control yourself around because they're utilizing this theory that at some point you will experience food habituation. This didn't work for me on my healing journey and over the years in working with others struggling with binge eating, I haven't seen this work for them either for some very distinct reasons. In this episode, I talk about what food habituation is, the pitfalls of food habituation, and how to assess if you need more or less structure with your food. You can also read the transcript to this week's episode here: https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/food-habituation-pitfallsIf you've been loving the Satiated Podcast and want to support more people in finding it, please leave me a review wherever you listen to the podcast.Talk to you all next week!With Compassion and Empathy, Stephanie Mara FoxSupport the Show.Keep in touch with Stephanie Mara:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/_stephaniemara/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/stephaniemarafoxWebsite: https://www.stephaniemara.com/https://www.somaticeating.com/Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stephmara/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@stephaniemarafoxContact: support@stephaniemara.comSupport the show:Become a supporter: https://www.buzzsprout.com/809987/supportMy favorite water filter: https://www.pureeffectfilters.com/#a_aid=somaticeatingReceive 15% off my fave protein powder with code STEPHANIEMARA at checkout here: https://www.equipfoods.com/discount/STEPHANIEMARA?rfsn=7433250.c99684Use my Amazon Affiliate link when shopping on Amazon: https://amzn.to/448IyPl Special thanks to Bendsound for the music in this episode. www.bensound.co...
Carter Buschardt, a seasoned Bigfoot researcher from Missouri with over a decade of experience, shares detailed insights into Sasquatch habituations, intelligence, and the controversial aspects of their existence, drawing from personal encounters, expeditions, and eyewitness accounts. This episode also dives into the phenomena of infrasound experiences and mental telepathy during Sasquatch encounters. Both discussions emphasize the complexity of Sasquatch existence, touching on elements of paranormality and quantum physics, and encourage sharing personal encounters with respect for privacy. The episode blends these intriguing narratives to highlight the mutual respect between humans and Sasquatches and opens the door to the mysterious relationships some families have with these beings, all while imbuing a sense of respect for the unexplainable aspects of our world.Resources:Carter's website with books and more: https://sqexplorer.com

If almost every one of us is consuming caffeine, and almost every one of us wants to consume less, why don't we?" - Shawn Wells Side Effects of Caffeine "Caffeine provides you with that jolt of overstimulation and then you crash. It raisse your anxiety levels. So all in all, you're just not feeling great after you consume it, even though you get that acute boost of energy." - Daniel Solomon All Diseases Are Metabolic in Nature "99% of disease is not genetic in nature, it's metabolic in nature. Your propensity to get any and all diseases is much higher when you're metabolically dysfunctional which is where you're going to have a 'trifecta of damage' on the mitochondria: oxidation, glycation, and inflammation.

After working for over 4 years in finance, Daniel quit his job and bought a one-way flight to New York City – where together with his close friends, set out to create the world's first energy drink without caffeine...that actually works. After three years of trial and error, they created UPDATE – you can think of it as the Tesla of energy drinks. They worked with leading scientists to be the first and only beverage brand to use caffeine's primary metabolite, Paraxanthine, instead of caffeine as their source of energy. The result is an energy drink that delivers the efficacy you expect from caffeine without any side effects.

Matthew Dugandzic joined the theology faculty at St. Mary's Seminary and University in 2019 after completing a Ph.D. in moral theology at The Catholic University of America in Washington, DC. His dissertation, "A Thomistic Account of the Habituation of the Passions," explored the ways in which people can develop virtuous affective inclinations. Dr. Dugandzic's scholarship focuses on medieval thought, especially Thomas Aquinas' anthropology, psychology, and ethics. His work on Christ's passions recently appeared in the European Journal for the Study of Thomas Aquinas and his other writings on the passions and on bioethics have appeared in New Blackfriars and National Catholic Bioethics Quarterly. His current research focuses on the sources that Aquinas used in developing his understanding of virtue and on recovering ancient and medieval wisdom regarding economics in order to apply this wisdom to contemporary financial problems (like student loan debt). Dr. Dugandzic has taught courses in fundamental moral theology, bioethics, theological anthropology, and Catholic social teaching. In addition to his work in the academy, Dr. Dugandzic has also brought his theological expertise to the aid of the Church, having taught theology to RCIA groups, catechists, and candidates for the permanent diaconate. In addition to his doctorate, Dr. Dugandzic holds a BSc in biology from Concordia University in Montréal, Québec and an MA in religious studies from St. Joseph's Seminary in Yonkers, New York. He and his wife, Audra, live in Baltimore, MD. In his spare time, he likes to play hockey, which he enjoys almost as much as reading theology.
