Full show notes: https://bengreenfieldlife.com/saunapodcast In this episode with Luke Chapman and Owen Buchanan, founders of Western Sol, you'll hear the story behind the custom sauna I recently had built in my backyard in Idaho, and the story behind the company itself, which started when a mold exposure in Hawaii sent Luke into daily sauna use. You'll gain insights into the actual science of heat shock proteins and dynorphins (the opioid peptides your body releases under heat stress), why most sauna wood is loaded with VOCs, and how thermally pressed aspen and spruce sourced from Estonia solves that problem entirely. We'll also touch on how Western Sol engineers oxygen-rich air recirculation, Himalayan salt therapy, and even full electrical grounding directly into the sauna floor, and you'll get a full walkthrough of what it costs to get a custom or prefabricated sauna built. Luke Chapman and Owen Buchanan are the founders of Western Sol, a custom and prefabricated sauna company based in Idaho. Both grew up around custom home construction in their family businesses before turning their focus toward building non-toxic, low-VOC saunas designed to support healing of the mind, body, and soul. They travel throughout Europe to source materials and study traditional sauna culture at its origin. You can find out more about Western Sol and schedule a free consultation here.

U.S.-India relations have struggled despite U.S. President Donald Trump and Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi's close personal relationship. This episode unpacks why tariffs, security concerns, and a détente with China has reframed the importance of the relationship, and what it could take to put it back on track.    Host: James M. Lindsay, Mary and David Boies Distinguished Senior Fellow in U.S. Foreign Policy, CFR   Guest:   Sadanand Dhume, Senior Fellow for India, Pakistan, and South Asia, CFR   We Discuss: Why U.S.-India relations have been uncertain since mid-2025 after having slowly strengthened over many years. How the second Trump administration's early actions and India's multipolar diplomacy forced substantive confrontations thatTrump and  Modi's personal relationship could not overcome. Why U.S.-India trade negotiations stalled and the Trump administration imposed tariffs, despite India repeatedly offering concessions. How the May 2025 India-Pakistan conflict and Trump's claim of forcing a ceasefire put Modi in a domestic political bind. How Pakistan's prominent role in brokering the U.S.-Iran ceasefire has amplified Indian anxieties about a U.S.-Pakistan thaw. Why Trump's talk of a Group of Two with China undermines its strategic desire to strengthen India as a counterweight to Chinese power. What the state of the Quad—an informal security dialogue among the United States, Australia, India, and Japan—and the United States' de-emphasis of the Indo-Pacific framework reveal about U.S. strategy in Asia. How Modi is normalizing ties with China and whether there is a limit to normalization given the Himalayan border dispute and China's efforts to constrain India's growth. How India's dependence on Russian arms has fallen over time, and why India is increasingly skeptical that Russia can act independently of China. Why Modi has resisted domestic political pressure to challenge Trump, and what that restraint reveals about India's calculation of its long-term national interest. Where the greatest opportunity lies to rebuild the U.S.-India relationship, and why tech cooperation and Silicon Valley represent the most natural and promising place to start.   Mentioned in the Episode:   “How People in 24 Countries View India,” Pew Research Center   Mathew George, Katarina Djokic, Zain Hussain, Pieter D.

Hello Beautiful, I'm so grateful you're here with me.

What happens when a successful architect discovers that external accomplishments cannot fill an inner emptiness? In this deeply moving conversation, Dr. Sharon Martin welcomes spiritual teacher, artist, filmmaker, and author Fu-Ding Cheng, whose remarkable life journey led him from profound childhood suffering to extraordinary spiritual awakening. Fu-Ding shares how architecture first became his refuge from early trauma and how, despite worldly success, he realized that true healing is always an inside job. Through meditation, Vedanta philosophy, Himalayan teachings, Jungian therapy, and years of spiritual seeking, he embarked on a path that transformed his understanding of consciousness, suffering, and human potential. Together, Dr. Martin and Fu-Ding explore the unseen connections between spirituality, science, ancestral healing, and the energetic imprints carried through generations. They discuss how healing ourselves can ripple backward and forward through family lineages, releasing inherited burdens and transforming collective patterns. Fu-Ding also recounts his profound experiences studying with renowned Toltec teacher Don Miguel Ruiz, including a life-changing ritual at Teotihuacan that awakened him to what Ruiz calls "the dream of the planet." The conversation expands into the nature of consciousness, the shadow self, energetic parasites, and the possibility that our deepest essence is already divine. The episode concludes with a discussion of Fu-Ding's expressive watercolor art, inspired by his beloved cat Zenzi and rooted in the Zen tradition of simplicity, presence, and single-stroke mastery.

When Angel Santana and Dr. E reunite after a month-long sabbatical, a simple conversation about aging turns into a warm, humorous, and deeply human journey. Between a tall tale of Himalayan misadventure, a 40-foot shark slide, and the memory of a father born on the Fourth of July, the hosts explore how the body may weaken but the spirit can grow stronger. They trade jokes and confessions, wrestle with the slippery promise of change, and face the real test—the ‘fourth day' when retreat meets reality. Through prayer, honest reflection, and friendship, they invite you to witness a moment of renewal and to take faith into an often-chaotic world. Listen in for a short, uplifting episode that blends humor, humility, and hope—an encouraging reminder that while we may not be as young as we once were, our faith can be deeper than ever.

In an era marked by rising depression, loneliness, distractibility, burnout and overall declining well-being, many leaders are searching for more effective ways to support their own flourishing and that of their teams. In this compelling conversation, Cortland Dahl, PhD, shares truly transformative insights from his new book, Born to Flourish: How New Science and Ancient Wisdom Reveal a Simple Path to Thriving, co-authored with renowned neuroscientist Richard J. Davidson. Dahl serves as a Contemplative Scientist at the Center for Healthy Minds at the University of Wisconsin–Madison. With a unique background that includes nearly a decade living in Himalayan monasteries and Tibetan refugee communities, years of solitary retreat, fluency in Tibetan, and the translation of classical meditation texts, he brings rare depth to the intersection of ancient contemplative wisdom and cutting-edge neuroscience. Together with Davidson, Dahl has helped develop the Healthy Minds Framework — a practical, research-backed model showing that humans are literally born with an innate capacity to flourish. The book reveals that genuine well-being arises not from mindfulness alone, but through the cultivation of four interconnected skills: Awareness, Connection, Insight, and Purpose. These trainable practices, grounded in both brain science and timeless wisdom, can be developed in just a few minutes a day and have been shown to rewire the brain for greater resilience, kindness, and meaning — even amid life's inevitable challenges. This episode dives deep into each of the four skills, exploring simple, everyday ways individuals can build them, while also addressing the critical question of how workplace leaders can intentionally model and cultivate these qualities to elevate employee well-being and create healthier, more connected organizational cultures. Dahl shares why mastering all four skills together produces results far more powerful than any single practice, and how flourishing can become contagious within teams. If you care about leading with heart, reducing burnout, strengthening human connection, and helping people thrive rather than merely survive, this conversation offers both hope and practical guidance. Tune in to discover how ancient truths and modern science can transform the way we work and live.

Psychologist Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi called it flow. Neuroscientists call it transient hypofrontality. Athletes call it the zone. Whatever name you use, the experience is unmistakable, and the brain state behind it is measurable: elevated alpha and theta waves, a quieting of the prefrontal cortex, and a whole-brain integration that most of us can access only occasionally, and rarely on demand.This Vibe Drop is built to change that.Crystal singing bowls tuned to 432 Hz carry a note progression drawn from the creativity and motivation protocols of precision sound therapy, with intervals selected for their documented effects on the autonomic nervous system, cognitive activation, and the release of nitric oxide and endogenous opiates that accompany deep harmonic resonance. Himalayan singing bowls add warmth and support heart rate variability, creating the physiological calm the body needs to allow focus to deepen rather than strain. Beneath all of it, a continuous 40 Hz gamma isochronic pulse anchors the session neurologically, the same frequency range identified in landmark research at MIT as a driver of neural integration, cognitive resilience, and long-term brain health.This is not background music.

 Have you heard about remote viewing? Would you like to learn to utilize your psychic skills? Did you know it's easy for children to develop these abilities? Lisa continues the conversation with our guest today, Hakim Isler, who is a combat veteran and military expert in PsiOps. He is the creator of the Psi Games Event and will discuss its role in unlocking human potential. Hakim is a survivalist as well an expert in consciousness. He talks about the importance of play and how he uses it in the Psi Games. Hakim talks about how we can stay open to ideas and use our psychic knowledge. He invites us to push the limits and develop our abilities. Through the Psi Games, he founded a competition that involves remote viewing as well. He talks about training with many of the original remote viewers. We can learn to break through the boundaries. Hakim believes it's the next level of human evolution. This can all become normal. We have so much information including 150-200 years of research into this phenomenon. Universities such as Princeton, Rice, Duke, the University of Virginia and others have been studying these methods for many decades. He also discusses his work with the Monroe Institute. Hakim believes we need to make the idea of psychic abilities fun and available to the masses. Hakim was on the TV show "Naked and Afraid" where he was sent to the Himalayan mountains and needed to survive for 21 days with no food, no water, no shelter. He talks more about what he learned through those lessons, including the power of love.  Hakim invites us to explore a world of unlimited possibilities available to us all. This is Part 2 of the interview. Info: Psigamesinternational.com and Hakim-Isler.com.

Are you familiar with the idea of remote viewing and how the military uses it? Would you like to hone your psychic skills? Our guest today, Hakim Isler, is a combat veteran and military expert in PsiOps. He is the creator of the Psi Games Event and will discuss its role in unlocking human potential. Hakim is a survivalist and explains how the human hierarchy of needs relates to the chakras. We are all part of the whole. In this interview, Hakim discusses consciousness and how we relate to the world. This leads to other states of awareness. He talks about spiritual living and the importance of breathwork. Hakim is involved in an extensive yoga program and talks about balance and various breathing techniques. He shares about three different types of breathing, all of which affects our energy, whether it's to feel more energized, to slow down and relax, or to simply be in balance. Hakim was on the TV show "Naked and Afraid" where he was sent to the Himalayan mountains and needed to survive for 21 days with no food, no water, no shelter. He shares what he learned during that time. Hakim realized that what really matters is who you are and who you love. He tries to remind people that we are unlimited beings. We must try to hold on to what matters – and love is the most important aspect. The biggest tools we have are our breath and our love. We are all connected. Hakim further discusses the practice of remote viewing which was originally designed by the military to access information from a different place and time. Essentially the veterans in this secret program were considered "psychic spies." Hakim explains how remote viewing helps us realize we are more than our physical bodies. We are expanded beings as a collective. The true awareness of who we are is about connection as a whole. He also talks about the extensive work he is doing to teach everyone, children as well, how to access our innate psychic abilities. Hakim believes it's the next level of our evolution. He invites us to step into the full spectrum of who we are by learning and experiencing these unlimited possibilities. This is Part 1 of the interview.

In this episode, Jon and Adam are joined by instructor and 3D motion capture expert Jon Sinclair for a deep dive into what the best players actually do — and what everyday golfers should not blindly copy. Sinclair explains why many so-called fundamentals, like grip, stance, and posture, are not universal, and how great players often succeed by building around their own “superpowers.” The conversation explores how golfers create consistency through better thought processes, why trying to fix every bad shot can make things worse, and how swing changes need to evolve into playable skills on the course. They also get into wedge technique, short-game launch conditions, shaft consistency, and why better data should simplify your golf game rather than make it more confusing.

In this Kundalini Sunday Zoom session, Chrism opens with participant reports from the ongoing Shaktipat process, including activation dreams, sharp spine sensations, a rainbow-like corona phenomenon, blue-light meditation imagery, and a new sense of serenity arising through the practices.The central teaching focuses on chakra clearing, entities, triggers, and learning to trust Kundalini as the true guide of the energetic anatomy. Chrism explains that chakras are not inherently “dirty,” but can be affected by entities, substances, ghosts, Reiki, emotional triggers, or outside energetic influence. Rather than relying on external practitioners, he emphasizes asking Kundalini directly for clearing, discernment, healing, and guidance.The session also explores recovery communities, long-term entity influence, eye pressure during Shaktipat, acupuncture, astrology, qi machines, remote healing, black snakes as Kundalini symbolism, first-chakra meditation, gambling and stock-market intuition, ET disclosure, beehives, praying mantis guides, mythic beings, Himalayan pink salt cleansing, safe energy work, fifth-chakra activation, heart blockages, emotional detox, forgiveness, bliss, and surrender.•≈•≈•≈•≈•≈•≈•≈•≈•≈•≈•≈•≈•≈•≈•Drawing on more than six decades of direct experience with awakened Kundalini, Chrism offers grounded guidance for those navigating the physical and energetic challenges of awakening.This podcast is offered freely to support those walking the path of Kundalini awakening.For private one on one support from Chrism for your own Kundalini equation, as well as other services and resources, visit https://chrismkundalini.com.Recorded live on 28 Jun 2026

To learn more about Jim Waldron's teaching and golf schools, visit: https://balancepointgolf.com/ In this episode, we are joined by golf coach Jim Waldron for a wide-ranging conversation about the mind-body connection in golf. Jim explains how awareness, focused attention, and staying “external” can help golfers quiet the inner voice, manage pressure, and access their skills more freely on the course. The discussion also covers the yips, pre-shot routines, balance, Ben Hogan's mental approach, and why many golfers sabotage themselves by trying too hard to control the outcome. They also explore why consistency is such a misleading goal in golf, and how golfers can find more enjoyment by building a “secondary scorecard” beyond just handicap and score.   Thank you to our show sponsors Lagoon Sleep, For Wellness, Momentous, and Square: Lagoon Sleep helps you find the right pillow for your sleep position and body type with a quick two-minute quiz, giving you a more personalized setup for better rest and recovery.

In this EpisodeWatch the full episode hereWe had one of our favorite return guests back on the show this week: Chetna Makan, the Great British Bake Off fan favorite turned YouTube institution (a million-plus devotees across her platforms, a decade of Food with Chetna), whose new book, Chetna's 5-Ingredient Indian, landed on American shelves the day before we recorded—which makes this, as far as we can tell, her first U.S. interview for it. Enjoy!Highlights & “Must-Listen” Moments* [00:00]—Welcome, Chetna: We open with Chetna's bio—Bake Off in 2014, a YouTube channel that's quietly become one of the most trusted resources for home Indian cooking, and book number nine (or ten, depending how you count)—before she walks us through the actual premise of Chetna's 5-Ingredient Indian: not a gimmick, but a direct answer to home cooks who assume Indian cooking requires a full spice cabinet and a free afternoon.* [02:00]—Why five ingredients, really: Chetna explains the constraint wasn't arbitrary—it came out of watching people get intimidated by long ingredient lists, and a cookbook market she felt had nothing genuinely new to say. The test case: her red kidney bean curry, stripped of the tomatoes, extra coriander, and green chili most versions lean on, while keeping onion, ginger, and garlic as the flavor spine.* [09:43]—The spice blends are the real trick: This is the section to read twice. Garam masala, chaat masala, and tandoori masala all got reverse-engineered down to five ingredients apiece—“hard work,” Chetna says, because “every spice adds a different note.” Her own invention, sabji masala (turmeric, hing, cumin, coriander, plus one more), doesn't exist anywhere in traditional Indian cooking; she built it from scratch to solve her own five-ingredient math problem. David draws the parallel to his own Portuguese red pepper paste—built for the same reason, to save people from re-assembling the same six ingredients every time they cook.* [17:36]—Atom masala and the mango pickle: A listener question about Priya Krishna's New York Times piece on recreating her family's lost “Atom Masala” leads Chetna into the one recipe she's never gotten back: her grandmother's raw mango pickle, peeled rather than skin-on, with a spice blend nobody wrote down before she died.* [19:17]—The lost-recipe roundtable: What starts as a question to Amy turns into three generations of food going extinct—Amy's grandmother's mocha and marble cakes, a neighbor's famously unshared ricotta fritters, and David's own grandmother's pink Portuguese chicken soup (the inspiration, he explains, for both his entire career in food writing and the pink shirt he happened to be wearing). Chetna's take on people who refuse to share recipes: “Just tell me when you want to eat it” is not a substitute for a recipe card.* [24:39]—Between the Slices and the new fans: Chetna explains the unexpected second life of her sandwich series—millions of views, a flood of younger viewers in India who now stop her on the street for sandwiches instead of curry. “It's slightly annoying,” she says, “that they don't stop me for my Indian food.”* [28:49]—The one onion mistake everyone makes: If you only watch one clip from this episode, make it this one. Chetna's diagnosis of what home cooks get wrong: onions that never actually get cooked. “They don't give it time to get to deep golden—it needs to be a caramel color.” David's hack for speeding that up without babysitting the pan: a splash of water and a lid, early on, to soften the onions before they caramelize.* [32:52]—Cheddar cheese in chicken tikka: Chetna didn't invent this—it's a real, if under-discussed, move in Indian home kitchens—but she's the reason a lot of us now know about it. “It's not like the ones you get in restaurants,” she says. “It adds a layer of flavor and more depth.”* [34:21]—No filters, ever: On a book built around restraint, and an Instagram presence built on #nofilter: Chetna explains why she's never retouched a filter on a food photo in her life, AI imagery be damned, and why a “proper messy plate” beats anything styled for the grid.* [36:36]—The baking digression: Five ingredients don't stretch to dessert, so we made Chetna talk about her other books—The Cardamom Trail and Chetna's Healthy Indian among them—and her habit of slipping an Indian accent into classic bakes: a cardamom, coconut, and mango cake; a black sesame and lime cake; clove, cinnamon, and chocolate cookies; and a cardamom upside-down pear cake that's apparently a fixture in her kitchen every autumn.* [40:25]—The table salt defense: Chetna's case for plain table salt over sea salt, kosher, or Himalayan, in five ingredients or fewer: consistency. She's cooked with it her whole life, trusts it enough to season by feel for four people or forty, and doesn't love the uneven crunch sea salt can leave behind in a finished dish.* [42:23]—No process, on purpose: Asked how she keeps up a decade-long YouTube channel, a stack of cookbooks, and a constant stream of social content, Chetna's answer is refreshingly anti-productivity-hack: don't overthink it. Ten years, never missed an upload, and the one time she did agonize over a post—a single steak photo—she just didn't post it.* [44:14]—The closer: what would convert a skeptic: Chicken tikka gets an honorable mention, but Chetna's real answer for the person who claims Indian food “isn't their thing” is the chana dal—split yellow peas, no spice blend required, just five ingredients and patience.Recipes Mentioned* Red Kidney Bean Curry—Chetna's five-ingredient rework of a family staple* Garam Masala, Chaat Masala, Tandoori Masala, Podi Masala, and Sabji Masala—five spice blends from 5-Ingredient Indian, each capped at five ingredients* Cheddar Cheese Chicken Tikka* Chana Dal (Split Yellow Peas)—Chetna's pick for converting Indian-food skeptics* Cardamom, Coconut, and Mango Cake* Black Sesame and Lime Cake* Clove, Cinnamon, and Chocolate Cookies* Cardamom Upside-Down Pear CakeBooks and Publications* Chetna's 5-Ingredient Indian by Chetna Makan (Hamlyn)—her newest, just released in the U.S.* The Cardamom Trail by Chetna Makan—baking with Indian flavors* Chai, Chaat & Chutney by Chetna Makan—a street-food tour of India* Chetna's Healthy Indian by Chetna MakanWhere to Find Us* Amy Traverso* Instagram | Yankee Magazine* David Leite* Instagram | Pinterest | Facebook | YouTube* Chetna Makan* Website | YouTube—Food with Chetna | Instagram This is a public episode.

The Buddha taught a path of awakened living, but how does that manifest in today's world of constant connectivity and widespread suffering? How do we keep our hearts open without being defined or hardened by the pain that surrounds us, whether personal, collective, or historical? How do we navigate the paradox of holding both pain and joy, without mistaking suffering for punishment or personal failure? Can we infuse our compassion with wisdom and perspective to find the agency to take meaningful action in our communities? In her new series, Engaged Compassion, Sharon delves into these questions and more, engaging in candid conversations with a diverse group of teachers, activists, and changemakers. For the seventh episode in the series, Sharon's speaks with teacher Geshe Lobsang Tenzin Negi, marking his first appearance on the Metta Hour.Geshe Lobsang Tenzin Negi, PhD, is the cofounder and director of the Emory-Tibet Partnership, a multi-dimensional initiative founded in 1998 to bring together the foremost contributions of the Western scholastic tradition and the Tibetan Buddhist sciences of mind and healing. He is also professor of practice in Emory University's Department of Religion. In 2018, he launched, with the Dalai Lama, SEE Learning, a free compassion curriculum for children. Geshe Lobsang, a former monk, was born in Kinnaur, a small Himalayan kingdom adjoining Tibet. He began his monastic training at the Institute of Buddhist Dialectics and continued his education at Drepung Loseling Monastery in south India, where he received his Geshe Lharampa degree in 1994, the highest academic degree granted in the Tibetan Buddhist tradition.In this conversation, Geshe and Sharon speak about:• How Geshe grew up in the Himalayas • Becoming a monk at age 14 in 1974• Geshe and Sharon's first meeting • Center for Contemplative Science and Compassion-Based Ethics• Cognitively Based Compassion Training • What neuroscience says about compassion• Tania Singer's research work• Richie Davidson's discovery with neuroplasticity• The inner qualities that are actually skills• Putting compassion into real action• How discernment must guide compassion• Story of the starfish on the beach• How small acts of kindness affect others• Developing the inner disposition for kindness• Is compassion fatigue actually compassion?• The natural reciprocity of compassion • “Compassionomics” by Stephen Trzeciak• Why self-compassion is a struggle• Accepting the human condition• Drepung Loseling Monastery• H.H.

Happy Spooky Wednesday, everyone! It may be hot outside, but it's cold in our hearts. I should explain that… we're talking about the Yeti this week! This famous cryptid has been inaccurately portrayed in the media for years. This is no bouncing bumble. This is a mysterious bipedal animal that is said to inhabit the Himalayan mountain range in Asia. We're talking about the long history of personal encounters and evidence that has sparked cryptozoologists' curiosity for decades!

She also introduces resources for pet owners, such as the "Core and More" exercise program and her "At Home Laser Therapy" course. These tools aim to empower pet parents to improve their pets' health through non-invasive methods, enhancing their quality of life and longevity. Listen in!

PRODUCT SPOTLIGHT #2 If your dog is slowing down, struggling with stairs, or hesitating to jump in the car, you know something isn't right. Joint and mobility issues are a leading cause of shortened lifespan, and finding a supplement that truly helps can be frustrating.

Thanks to a proprietary dual-stage fermentation process, it is seven to 10 times more bioavailable than conventional supplements, delivering more effective support where your dog needs it most.

The episode explores why golfers should not expect to feel fully comfortable on the course, especially under pressure, and how accepting nerves, bad swings, or lingering fears can help keep a round together. There is also a debate about whether golfers should tee the ball up on par threes, which is tied to a larger conversation about margin for error, reducing big mistakes, and testing what works best for your own game. Finally, the episode covers how on-course personality affects performance, and why finding the right balance between focus on the ball and staying relaxed between shots can be a major unlock for both scoring and enjoyment.

Between Two Teeth is back for Season 2.We kick things off in Cali, on motorcycles, talking about how the marriage happened, the proposal in the Himalayan mountains, and the wild ride that brought us here.Surgeons. Law students. Adventurers. Back in the saddle.

In this episode, we perceive a disgruntled comparison, as depicted in Sangam Literary work, Aganaanooru 265, penned by Maamoolanaar. Set in the ‘Paalai’ or ‘Drylands landscape’, the verse introduces an intriguing historic detail. புகையின் பொங்கி, வியல் விசும்பு உகந்து,பனி ஊர் அழற் கொடி கடுப்பத் தோன்றும்இமயச் செவ் வரை மானும்கொல்லோ?பல் புகழ் நிறைந்த வெல் போர் நந்தர்சீர் மிகு பாடலிக் குழீஇ, கங்கைநீர்முதல் கரந்த நிதியம்கொல்லோ?எவன்கொல்? வாழி, தோழி! வயங்கு ஒளிநிழற்பால் அறலின் நெறித்த கூந்தல்,குழற் குரல் பாவை இரங்க, நத்துறந்து,ஒண் தொடி நெகிழச் சாஅய், செல்லலொடுகண் பனி கலுழ்ந்து யாம் ஒழிய, பொறை அடைந்து,இன் சிலை எழில் ஏறு கெண்டி, புரையநிணம் பொதி விழுத் தடி நெருப்பின் வைத்து எடுத்து,அணங்கு அரு மரபின் பேஎய் போலவிளர் ஊன் தின்ற வேட்கை நீங்க,துகள் அற விளைந்த தோப்பி பருகி,குலாஅ வல் வில் கொடு நோக்கு ஆடவர்புலாஅல் கையர், பூசா வாயர்,ஒராஅ உருள் துடி குடுமிக் குராலொடுமராஅஞ் சீறூர் மருங்கில் தூங்கும்செந் நுதல் யானை வேங்கடம் தழீஇ,வெம் முனை அருஞ் சுரம் இறந்தோர்நம்மினும் வலிதாத் தூக்கிய பொருளே! In this trip to the drylands, we receive some vivid word portraits, as we listen to the lady say these words to the confidante, when the man continues to remain parted away, having left in search of wealth: “Brimming over like smoke, soaring in the wide sky, flowing with snow, akin to a burst of flame, appears the crimson Himalayan mountains. Would it be equal to that? Or, take the riches that the battle-worthy Nandars, having much fame, had gathered in the renowned city of Patali and then drowned in the waters of the Ganges, lost in time. Would it be equal to that? May you live long, my friend! Forsaking me, the one having wavy tresses, akin to fine slit in the shade, a voice like the flute, the one akin to a doll, he has parted away, letting my shining bangles slip away, making my eyes shed tears, filled with much sorrow, to the mountains in the scorching, formidable drylands, where after killing a fine, sturdy bull, roasting its fatty, fleshy meat in the fire, akin to demons from a fear-evoking tradition, they eat the dry meat and to quench the thirst that arises, those men with curving, sturdy bows and harsh eyes, drink crystal clear, well-aged rice liquor named ‘Thoppi'. Then, with meat-covered hands, and unclean mouths, to the tune of a tufted eagle-owl's ceaseless hooting, in the streets of the hamlet with burflower trees, they sway around and dance, close to the hills of Venkatam, where elephants with red foreheads, are to be found! What is the true worth of that wealth he seeks in these spaces, with more intent, upheld higher than me, pray tell?” Let’s brave the scary drylands and learn more! The lady starts by describing the Himalayas with a stack of similes, such as smoke and flames, and presents its soaring personality, and she asks if the wealth the man seeks is greater than these mountain ranges? From the physical wealth of a natural feature, the lady turns to man-made wealth of a certain clan of kings named ‘Nandas’, who are said to have ruled over a city named ‘Pataliputra’. Apparently, they then sank this accumulated wealth in the waters of the Ganges and it was lost for all time. Wonder what made those Nandas destroy their hard-earned wealth? In any case, the lady asks whether the wealth the man seeks is greater than this wealth of the famous Nandas.  Then, she talks of herself, calling her a doll, having a voice like that of a flute, tresses akin to the river silt in the shade. Modest lady, indeed! She turns to describe how the man has left her, ruining her health and beauty, making her filled with sorrow and suffering. And where has he left? Predictably, to the drylands, the lady adds and to sketch this space, she paints an image of highway robbers with harsh eyes and bent bows, feeding on the roasted flesh of a bull they killed, drinking rice liquor known as ‘Thoppi’, and then, without even washing their hands or mouth, dancing to the hoots of a tufted Rock Eagle-owl, in a drylands hamlet, filled with burflower trees, close to the Venkatam hills in the north. The lady concludes by pondering on the great worth of that wealth that the man has forsaken her for! In essence, the lady talks about how she cannot understand the man’s quest for wealth instead of relishing the joy of togetherness with her. A striking instance of how priorities seem to clash between the genders even two thousand years ago! 

In this episode, Jon and Adam discuss a simple but more useful way to track golf stats without getting buried in apps or misleading numbers like fairways hit and total putts. Jon explains how golfers can evaluate tee shots, approach shots, wedge play, and putting with a basic checkmark/X system focused on whether shots were functional, playable, and connected to scoring. The larger message is that stat tracking only matters if it leads to a better post-round review: identifying good shots, spotting real patterns, and separating ball-striking issues from strategy or mental-process mistakes. The episode also includes a follow-up conversation with Jared Tendler about self-doubt, anxiety, and why golfers do not need perfect confidence to improve or compete well. Ultimately, the discussion encourages golfers to review their rounds with more clarity, less emotion, and a stronger focus on the patterns that actually hold them back.   Purchase Jared Tendler's new book, Everyday Golf Psychology ⁠here⁠ Join the free community Jared created around the book ⁠here Thank you to our show sponsors, Strike Wedge, For Wellness, Rhoback, Warby Parker, and Pestie Golfers who care about their game should care about taking care of their bodies too.

With the 2026 Everest season now officially in the books, Sam and Adrian are back for their fourth and final installment of Everest coverage, with Adrian calling in from Denver where the season's biggest stories have been the talk of the festival floor.Before diving into Everest, Sam and Adrian each share a news story from the week. Adrian touches on the trending trademark lawsuit between outdoor apparel giant Patagonia and Pattie Gonia, the drag persona of environmental activist and outdoor influencer Wyn Wiley, unpacking the nuance on both sides and why two brands with nearly identical values find themselves here. Sam flags two recent search and rescue incidents in the South Lake Tahoe area, which leads to a spirited debate on satellite communicators vs. iPhone satellite messaging — both landing on the same conclusion: redundancy wins.From there, Sam and Adrian cover the following from the 2026 Everest season:- Bartek Ziemski: Story of the Season: No contest for Adrian. The Polish ski mountaineer — a software engineer with no social media — skied Lhotse without oxygen, rested briefly, then summited and skied Everest without oxygen as well, keeping his skis on from top to bottom. Adrian reflects on what it takes physically and mentally to turn around for a second no-oxygen 8,000-meter peak in a single season, and what Bartek's ascents mean for the next generation of Himalayan ski mountaineering.- The Season by the Numbers: A record number of climbers, a record single-day summit of 274 people, roughly five fatalities — and what may be the best no-oxygen season on record with four successful ascents including Bartek, Kristen Harila, and Nirmal Purja. Garrett Madison notched his 16th summit, Kenton Cool his 21st, and Kami Rita Sherpa extended his record to 32.- Aviation: The Season's Most Complicated Story: Drones moving thousands of kilograms of equipment over the Khumbu Icefall represent real progress toward reducing worker trips through the mountain's most dangerous section. But widespread abuse of the helicopter rescue system — with climbers faking medical emergencies to skip the descent — is a growing problem, and Adrian argues the current regulatory framework is failing.- Three Climbers Stranded Above the Icefall: As of recording, two Americans and a Sherpa remain at Camp 2 after the icefall was decommissioned, waiting on a helicopter that weather has so far prevented from reaching them. Adrian weighs in on the decision-making that put them there — and what it says about following the rules of the mountain you're on.- The FKT Question — Karl Egloff and Tyler Andrews: Karl turned around below Camp 4, staying true to his no-oxygen-only philosophy. Tyler eventually summited with oxygen in just under 10 hours. Adrian congratulates Tyler on seeing the full mountain but is direct: oxygen FKTs and no-oxygen FKTs are not the same record, and keeping that distinction clear matters for the athletes still chasing the real one.One more episode is coming. Send your Everest questions via DM, YouTube comments, or the website — Sam and Adrian are planning a bonus listener Q&A before moving on to K2 season.Follow our podcast on Instagram @duffelshufflepodcast where you can learn more about us and our guests.

In this episode of xMonks Drive, host Gaurav Arora sits down with Kaamya Karthikeyan — India's youngest female Everester, world record holder, and one of the most extraordinary young athletes in the world — for a rare long-form conversation about what it really takes to push past the limits of human endurance, again and again, from the time she was seven years old.Kaamya Karthikeyan became the youngest female in the world to complete the Seven Summits — climbing the highest mountain on every continent — at the age of 17. She has summited Mount Everest, Mount Vinson in Antarctica, Mount Denali in North America, Mount Aconcagua in South America, Mount Kilimanjaro in Africa, Mount Elbrus in Europe, and Mount Kosciuszko in Australia. She has also skied 111 kilometres to the Geographic South Pole as part of the Last Degree expedition, becoming the youngest Indian and one of the youngest women in the world to do so. She is currently 18 years old and studying engineering at Shiv Nadar University. She is also a competitive ski mountaineer who has represented India at the Asian Championships and the Youth World Cup, and won medals at the Khelo India Winter Games and the National Championships. Ski mountaineering recently became an Olympic sport at the Milano Cortina Winter Olympics.In this episode Kaamya talks about her Everest summit push — starting from Camp 4 in the middle of the night after 250 climbers had turned back, navigating whiteout conditions on the Lhotse Face, losing her expedition mitten at 8000 metres above sea level, and what her Sherpa did in that moment that she will never forget. She talks about skiing alone to the South Pole for 10 days with no landmarks, getting frostbite, being told by doctors to go home, and walking 8 hours with no guarantee she would be allowed to continue. She talks about the avalanche on Mount Trishul in Uttarakhand in 2021 that took the lives of six people she was close to, and how she processed that loss and went back to the mountains seven months later for the Denali expedition. She talks about the controversy around evacuation practices currently affecting the Himalayan climbing community and what it is doing to the relationship between climbers and the Sherpa community.This episode is essential viewing for anyone interested in mountaineering, Everest, high altitude climbing, the Seven Summits, the Explorers Grand Slam, polar expeditions, the South Pole, ski mountaineering, adventure sports in India, mental strength, resilience, overcoming fear, dealing with loss, and the human capacity to keep going when everything says stop.Kaamya Karthikeyan's story is one of the most remarkable sporting and human stories to come out of India in recent years. She started trekking at age 7 in Uttarakhand, summited her first 6000 metre peak at age 9 on Stok Kangri in Ladakh, trekked to Everest Base Camp at age 9, summited Kilimanjaro at age 10, Elbrus at age 11, Aconcagua at age 12 becoming the youngest girl in the world at the time, Denali at age 14, Everest at age 16 becoming the youngest Indian and one of the youngest women in the world to summit from the Nepal side, Vinson Massif in Antarctica at age 17 completing the Seven Summits, and skied to the South Pole at age 17. Prime Minister Narendra Modi spoke about her on Mann Ki Baat when she was 12 years old. She has won the Pradhan Mantri Rashtriya Bal Puraskar. She has been supported by the Tata Steel Adventure Foundation and the Reliance Foundation. Only the North Pole expedition remains before she completes the full Explorers Grand Slam.

In this episode of Rest, Eat, Move, Matt sits down with Dr. Phil Nuernberger, psychologist, meditation teacher, and longtime student of the Himalayan tradition, for a deep conversation on the mind, fear, stillness, focus, and inner harmony. Dr. Phil explains why most people spend their lives training their bodies but never learn how to train their minds, and how simple practices like diaphragmatic breathing, breath awareness, and focused attention can transform emotional resilience and mental clarity. Together, they explore the roots of fear, the dangers of distraction and information overload, the power of intuition, and why true confidence comes not from external success but from developing an unshakable connection to your inner strength. This conversation offers practical tools and timeless wisdom for anyone seeking greater peace, presence, and purpose in a world designed to keep us distracted.#MentalHealth #Mindset #Meditation #SelfImprovement #PersonalDevelopmentontargetliving.com

Most people spend their lives trying to understand who they are through achievement, performance, personality labels, or external validation yet still feel disconnected from themselves underneath it all.Executive coach and Vedic wisdom teacher Vish Chatterji explores the hidden relationship between consciousness, karma, leadership, and identity through the lens of Jyotish, the ancient science of Vedic astrology. What begins as skepticism from an engineer and MBA-trained executive evolves into a deeper exploration of self-awareness, emotional patterns, and soul-level alignment.Together they explore the difference between Western astrology and Vedic astrology, why so many leaders feel emotionally fragmented despite outward success, and how ancient systems can illuminate the hidden tensions we carry into work, relationships, and personal growth. Vish reframes astrology not as fate, but as a tool for consciousness; one that helps people recognize their strengths, karmic patterns, and deeper nature beneath ego and performance.Together, Amy and Vish reflect on intuition, manifestation, karmic debt, leadership, and the emotional freedom that can emerge when we stop resisting difficult experiences and begin seeing meaning inside them.At its core, this episode is an invitation to move beyond self-improvement as performance and toward a more conscious relationship with ourselves, our choices, and the lives we're creating.Moments That Create Momentum:When Achievement Stops Answering Deeper Questions – Explore why so many high performers continue searching for meaning, identity, and fulfillment long after external success arrives.The Gap Between Ego and Authentic Self – Discover how ancient wisdom traditions describe the tension between who we've learned to become and who we actually are underneath performance and survival.Why Leaders Keep Searching for Personality Frameworks – From Myers-Briggs to Vedic astrology, the episode explores humanity's deeper desire to feel understood beyond roles, titles, and productivity.Karma as Emotional and Relational Accountability – Reframing karma not as punishment, but as an energetic balancing process that shapes relationships, conflict, growth, and healing.The Danger of Outsourcing Inner Authority – A nuanced reflection on predictions, intuition, and why discernment matters when seeking guidance, certainty, or spiritual insight.About the Guest:Vish Chatterji is an East-meets-West executive coach, Vedic wisdom teacher, and author who helps people find deeper alignment and meaning in their work through the traditions of Yoga, Meditation, Ayurveda, Vedic Philosophy, and Jyotish (Vedic Astrology).

In this episode, we take a deep dive into one of golf's most misunderstood words: consistency. Adam and Jon unpack why consistency is not about making the exact same swing every time, but rather learning how to manage variability, improve impact patterns, and build bigger margins for error. They discuss why golfers often make themselves less consistent by trying to control too much, and how external focus, differential practice, smarter strategy, and better expectations can all help. If you've ever wondered why your good shots and bad shots can show up in random order, this episode will give you a much clearer framework for understanding what consistency really means in golf.

Every year on May 29, International Everest Day is celebrated to mark the historic first ascent of Mount Everest in 1953 by Sir Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay Sherpa. In this episode, we speak with Sir Edmund Hillary's son Peter Hillary, who describes his childhood under the shadow of a world-famous father, the future of Australia–Nepal relationship and his thoughts on the recent record-breaking crowds at Everest. Peter has summited Mount Everest twice and taken part in five Everest expeditions. The Kiwi is also a founding director of the Australian Himalayan Foundation (AHF), a charity organisation working in Nepal and other Himalayan nations. - सन् १९५३ मा सर एड्मन्ड हिलारी र तेन्जिङ नोर्गे शेर्पाले संसारकै सर्वोच्च शिखर सगरमाथामा पहिलो सफल आरोहण गरेको सम्झनामा हरेक वर्ष मे २९ लाई अन्तर्राष्ट्रिय सगरमाथा दिवसको रूपमा मनाउने गरिन्छ। यस अवसरमा हामी आज तपाईँको भेट गराउँदै छौँ, सर एड्मन्ड हिलारीका छोरा पिटर हिलारीसँग। आफ्ना बुवाजस्तै अनुभवी पर्वतारोही रहेका उनले, सगरमाथा दुई पटक आरोहण गरिसकेका छन् र उक्त हिमाल सम्बन्धि विभिन्न अभियानहरूमा पनि उनी संलग्न रहिसकेका छन्। न्यु जिल्यान्डका पिटर हिलारी नेपाल लगायत हिमालय क्षेत्रमा परोपकारी काम गर्दै आएको अस्ट्रेलियन हिमालयन फाउन्डेसन एएचएफका एक संस्थापक निर्देशक पनि हुन्। विश्व चर्चित बुवासँग हुर्कँदाको बाल्यकाल, अस्ट्रेलिया-नेपाल सम्बन्धको भविष्य र सगरमाथामा केही दिन अगि देखिएको रेकर्ड तोड्ने भिडबारे पिटर हिलारीसँग एसबीएस नेपालीले गरेको कुराकानी सुन्नुहोस्।हाम्रा थप अडियो प्रस्तुतिहरू पोडकास्टका रूपमा उपलब्ध छन्। यो नि:शुल्क सेवा प्रयोग गर्न तपाईंले आफ्नो नाम दर्ता गर्नु पर्दैन। पोडकास्टमा सामाग्री उपलब्ध हुनासाथ सुन्न यहाँ थिच्नुहोस्।नोट: हामी तपाईँलाई जानकारी गराउन चाहन्छौँ कि यस कुराकानीमा व्यक्त गरिएका विचारहरू वक्ता स्वयम्‌का हुन् र यी विचारहरू प्रति एसबीएसको समर्थन वा विरोध छैन।

#422 In this podcast episode, Guy talked with Dr. Carol Talbot about expanding human potential beyond conditioning and limited beliefs, drawing on "Life and Teaching of the Masters of the Far East," which describes Himalayan masters demonstrating phenomena like walking on water, prana nourishment, and teleportation. Carol said distorted DNA and programming limit consciousness, describing DNA as a transmitter/receiver and comparing it to a film strip that shapes perceived reality. She discussed her background in quantum morphogenetic physics, her Breatharian "source feeding" research, darkroom retreats, and firewalking instruction, plus a model of accessing the quantum/multidimensional field as bandwidth.  Carol explained her multidimensional field scans, entrainment audio series (coherence, resonance, alignment, embodiment, and threshold), and the role of stillness, rest, and identity shifts in changing one's "timeline." They also covered resilience amid external chaos, perception as projection, playfulness, and Guy's experience of his daughter sticking coins to a wall as a lesson in not forcing outcomes. About Dr. Carol: Dr. Carol Talbot is a global thought leader in multidimensional intelligence, human potential, and consciousness technology. With a PhD in Quantum Morphogenetic Physics and decades of experience as a keynote speaker, author, and transformational guide, she is the creator of The Possibility Hub and a pioneer in BioRegenesis of the Human DNA Blueprint.  Known for bridging the worlds of science and mysticism, Dr Carol has spent her life activating timelines of remembrance, helping people reclaim their original blueprint beyond the limits of programming, trauma, or linear conditioning. Her work integrates quantum science and embodied mastery to support deep rewiring of perception, energy, and DNA.  Through tools like the Multi-Dimensional Field Scan, Resonance Frequency Mapping, and Mastery Frequency Maps, she offers precision reflections for those ready to live from coherence, sovereignty, and purpose.

The Himalayan glaciers are melting more rapidly as global temperatures rise, raising concerns about the future of ecosystems and communities across the Himalayan mountain range. Glaciers store more than two thirds of the world's freshwater and help regulate global temperatures by reflecting the sun's rays.Across South Asia, melting ice is contributing to the formation of unstable glacial lakes and increasing the risks of floods, droughts and avalanches. The Himalayas are a vital source of water for millions of people, supporting agriculture, energy production and livelihoods from tourism.Experts warn that continued glacier loss could have significant consequences for people living in the region and the mountainous ecosystem, but what can be done to respond to these changes?This week on The Inquiry, we're asking: are the Himalayan glaciers at a tipping point?Contributors: Pasang Yangjee Sherpa, assistant professor at the University of British Columbia, Canada Pam Pearson, director and founder of the International Cryosphere Climate Initiative, US Matthias Huss, glaciologist and senior scientist at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Zurich, Switzerland Alton Byers, faculty research scientist at the Institute of Artic and Alpine Research at the University of Colorado, USPresenter: Tanya Beckett Producer: Matt Toulson Researchers: Evie Yabsley and Amelia Cox Editor: Tom Bigwood Technical producer: Mitch Goodall Production management: Phoebe Lomas and Liam Morrey(Photo: Trekkers walk to Everest Base Camp in Nepal.

Use promo code sweetspot on the DECADE website: ⁠⁠https://decade.golf/⁠⁠ Also, ⁠⁠this link⁠⁠ will automatically apply the coupon code. In Part 2 of our conversation with Scott Fawcett from DECADE Golf, we shift from shot shaping into how golfers can actually prepare to score better. Scott shares what he's focusing on as he gets ready for tournament golf, including 20- to 40-foot speed control, basic chip-shot practice, and avoiding the mistakes that lead to big numbers. We also get into a debate on block versus random practice, why so many golfers struggle to take their range game to the course, and how a better pre-shot routine can improve commitment. This episode is all about practicing with more intention and turning your existing game into lower scores. Thank you to our sponsors, For Wellness and LMNT Golfers who care about their game should care about taking care of their bodies too. The Good Stuff from For Wellness is a small scoop that can be added to coffee, smoothies, or protein shakes, with ingredients like collagen for joint support, L-theanine for focus, MCTs for energy, cinnamon for antioxidants, and Himalayan salt for minerals and electrolytes. For Wellness conducted an IRB-approved study showing up to an 85% reduction in joint stiffness in 60 days, and the brand has over 12,000 five-star reviews. Sweet Spot listeners can get the best price on a 90-day subscription and welcome kit at forwellness.com/sweetspot with promo code SWEETSPOT for an extra 10% off. As the weather gets warmer, staying properly hydrated on the golf course becomes even more important. LMNT's new Lemonade Iced Tea flavor combines electrolytes, magnesium, and potassium with no sugar or questionable sports drink ingredients, plus caffeine from black tea extract for a steadier energy boost. Because the caffeine comes from tea, it's naturally paired with L-theanine and polyphenols, which can feel smoother than the spike-and-crash effect of many energy drinks. For golfers looking for hydration and a little back-nine energy, this is a great option to try. With any purchase you're going to get a free sample pack.

Only 4 could prove what's actually in their product. Salt has become a health product — pink salt, sea salt, mineral salt, all of it marketed as a clean upgrade. But nobody is talking about what these salts are actually contaminated with. Heavy metals. Microplastics. Pesticides. Things that don't show up on the label and build up quietly in your body every single day. Dr. G ran the investigation so you don't have to. In this episode, you'll find out:  • Which 2 salt companies earned elite status — and exactly what their testing showed  • The brands that never responded, and why silence is its own answer  • What to actually look for before buying any salt, and why "natural" or "Himalayan" on the label means nothing without documentation You use salt every single day. This episode tells you which ones are actually safe.
