Podcasts about holding pattern

Hey mission fam! In episode 206 - The Benefits of a Holding Pattern, I'm diving deep into the concept of a "holding pattern" - something we often judge ourselves for, but which can actually be incredibly powerful and necessary. I share how these periods of seeming stillness aren't about procrastination or laziness, but can be sacred spaces of healing, regrouping, and intentional preparation. Drawing from aviation analogies and personal experiences (like President Utchdorf), I explore how holding patterns protect us from rushed decisions and give us time to reconnect with ourselves and God. Whether you're a missionary going through the motions, a returned missionary processing your experience, or someone waiting on a big life decision, this episode will help you see these moments not as setbacks, but as valuable parts of your growth journey. I wrap up by sharing a beautiful scripture from Psalms - "Rest in the Lord and wait patiently for Him" - and encourage listeners to view their holding patterns as intentional, holy spaces. My hope is that you'll walk away with more compassion for yourself and understanding that you're always progressing, even when it doesn't look like forward movement. As always, if you found this episode helpful, I want to invite you to subscribe if you aren't already, share this episode with your friends and missionaries you know, and write a review. I know this work will help LDS missionaries around the world and it would mean so much to me if you did. Until next week my friends.   Website | Instagram | Facebook   Get the Full Show Notes and Text/PDF Transcripts: HERE   Free PDF Download:  Podcast Roadmap   Free PDF Download:  Preparing Missionary Cheat Sheet   Free Training for Preparing Missionaries:  Change Your Mission with this One Tool   RM Transition Free Video Series:  3 Tools to Help RMs in Their Transition Home   Free Guide:  5 Tips to Help Any Returning Missionary   Schedule a Free Strategy Call:   Click Here

According to Kevin Green, bulls still have the edge despite the SPX still falling short of the 6,100 mark. He says "too much green" to start the trading day would raise warning signs. Kevin points to hammer candles at the opening bell as a positive signal if volume holds. Gold's rampant run higher could end, according to Kevin, as he points to technicals showing bearish sentiment.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – / schwabnetworkFollow us on Facebook – / schwabnetworkFollow us on LinkedIn - / schwab-networkAbout Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about

Israelis are stuck in a tense holding pattern, each day waiting for a response from Iran, or Hezbollah, or both - an attack that was expected to occur last week, then later forecasted to occur over Tisha B'Av. And yet, each day… nothing. What is going on — in Tehran? In Jerusalem? And in Washington D.C.? At the same time, there is a similar pattern in the hostage negotiations. Today, senior officials from Israel, the U.S., Qatar and Egypt met in Doha to resume negotiations for a Gaza hostage and ceasefire deal - talks, as we are learning, that will continue into tomorrow. Israel seems to be on the brink of major developments - and yet, Israelis are left questioning: when will they occur? And against that backdrop: is Israel on offense, or is Israel on defense? To help us assess all of this from a broader strategic perspective, our guest is Dr. Jonathan Schanzer, who is senior vice president for research at Foundation for Defense of Democracies. Jon previously worked as a terrorism finance analyst at the U.S. Department of the Treasury, where he played an integral role in the designation of numerous terrorist financiers. Jon's latest book is "Gaza Conflict 2021: Hamas, Israel and Eleven Days of War". His other books include: "State of Failure: Yasser Arafat, Mahmoud Abbas, and the Unmaking of the Palestinian State", and "Hamas vs. Fatah: The Struggle for Palestine". Jonathan has studied Middle East history in four countries. He earned his PhD from King's College London, where he wrote his dissertation on the U.S. Congress and its efforts to combat terrorism in the 20th century. He speaks Arabic and Hebrew.

For the time being, the drug mifepristone remains on the market and a federal law requiring that emergency rooms provide life-saving abortions even in states banning the procedure is upheld.

In this conversation, Dr. John Stenberg, Dr. Cameron Bearder and Dr. James Beadle discuss various topics related to upper cervical care. They emphasize the importance of patient-centered care and collaboration among chiropractors. They also explore the boundaries and standards in upper cervical care and the need for adaptation and growth in the chiropractic profession. Takeaways Patient-centered care and collaboration among chiropractors are essential for providing the best care for patients. The chiropractic profession needs to adapt and grow to meet the changing needs of patients. Defining and measuring positive patient outcomes is crucial for evaluating the effectiveness of upper cervical care. The debate between upper and lower angle analysis highlights the need for further research and understanding in the field. Technique assumptions should be questioned and evaluated based on scientific evidence and patient outcomes. Assessing and monitoring patients is crucial in upper cervical care to evaluate progress and make informed treatment decisions. Pre-post examination data, the holding pattern, and patient feedback are valuable tools for assessing progress. Treatment should be individualized based on the patient's specific needs and response to care. Symptoms play an important role in assessing progress, and it is essential to set realistic expectations for improvement. Measuring and monitoring outcomes is important to show results and document progress. Measuring the sustainability of changes made through interventions is crucial. Understanding the frequency and intensity of interventions required to maintain changes is important. Different individuals may require different layers of intervention and careful dosing. Patterning and objective data collection can help in sustaining changes and avoiding dysfunction.

Escaping Life's Holding Pattern and Breaking Free When I learned to fly little airplanes, my training took me into Holding Patterns.  Holding Patterns slow aircraft traffic and keep things safe. When a pilot is told to enter a Hold, that's where they stay—flying in circles until Air Traffic Control releases them. That sure sounds a lot like regular life these days. I remember flying a Holding Pattern with my instructor. We were there longer than usual, so I asked, what is taking so long? He said, “Why don't you call them up and tell them you need to get moving?” A few minutes later, I called ATC on the radio and instantly was cleared to head toward my destination - with an apology for the delay. I've never forgotten the lesson. Even in with everything that has happened over the last few years, there's no reason to be stuck in a Holding Pattern. When you decide it's time to get moving, magical things happen.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
