Humans love to fix things, to find the cause of a problem, to probe, tinker, and mend. We ask, in many different ways, Why does this happen? What's the root cause? What's the origin? What or who is at fault? What or who is responsible? But there are three subjects that have intertwined with the topic of responsibly more than others. The idea of responsibility has many forms both historically and culturally. Philosophers have debated whether we can be truly responsible for our actions in the context of discussions about free-will; theologians have wrestled with the idea of taking responsibility for our sins; scientists have joined the discussion by searching for causation and exploring the psychology and neurology of our brains. But today, the idea of individual responsibility is often invoked in discussions about welfare, poverty, and enterprise. Increasingly, throughout the liberal and neoliberal periods, we've – in politics and the media, at least - emphasised ‘responsibility for ourselves' at the expense of other types of responsibilities, moral obligations, or duties. Is poverty a personal inadequacy? A problem of persons? A problem of character? A problem of culture? Or is it a problem of place? Of systems? Of society? The particular form ‘individual responsibility' has taken today – atomised, asocietal, ideally self-dependent, culturally ‘backward', genetically limited – is a relatively new historical and political concept which is used to justify the dismantling of welfare, the rejection of altruism, and the unravelling of community. Any cultural interpretation of responsibility is bound-up with politics, language, culture and society, and, has a history that's not simply progressive and linear. Instead of being responsible for ourselves, the concept of 'mutual obligations' or duties includes the responsibility to work hard and improve ourselves, but can also better accommodate contributing to the world, aiding others, remembering no man is an island and turning our gaze not inwards but outwards. I look at how this idea of individual responsibility developed in parallel with the history of poverty, looking at Edward Banfield's The Moral Basis of a Backward Soceity, Oscar Lewis' Culture of Poverty, Daniel Moynihan's The Negro Family, Charles Murray's Losing Ground and the Bell Curve, and George Gilder's Wealth and Poverty. We look at poverty and responsibility from the Middle Ages, through to the Poor Laws, to Kennedy, LBJ, The Great Society, The War on Poverty, to the Reagan and Thatcher era and to Obama and Fox News today.

Did you know that slang has a shelf life? Once a word or phase starts being used by a different generation, it often dies out. The internet has accelerated the spread of new words and promoted their acceptance into mainstream conversations. How we access word play, trends and jargon in a positive way that supports brands, companies and the average person is really up to that individual's communication style. We discover from our expert guests that learning is never truly over, especially when it comes to the words we use. Brian P. Cleary, an award winning author, shares that metaphors are like snap shots of people. Grant Barrett, co- host of Way with Words Radio, sees books and words as pockets of air in an upturned boat. Martha Barnette, the other co-host of Way with Words, explained that language is fossil poetry.

If we were to compress Earth's 4.6 billion years of history into one single, ordinary day, the first primitive signs of life would emerge at about four o'clock in the morning. Single-celled organisms appeared early but it was not until half past eight that large quantities of microbes started to grow. The first batch of sea plants would come into being soon after, and twenty minutes later, the first ever school of jellyfish would be born. At about 9:04 at night, the ancient trilobites and other creatures arrived , triggering what is known among biologists as the Cambrian explosion, a great outburst of life in the Cambrian Period. Close to ten at night, the Earth saw its very first signs of vegetation and its first batch of terrestrial animals. At 10:24, the great forests of the Carboniferous Period started covering the entire surface of the Earth, and the first winged insects began dancing in the air. The dinosaurs came just past eleven at night, and later dominated the Earth. Then, they would suddenly vanish in twenty-one minutes, and the era of the mammals would begin. Humans would not enter the scene until just one minute and seventeen seconds to midnight, and all of the documented history of mankind would in fact only span a few seconds long in this countdown.

This Episode is sponsored by Cloudflare Workers (https://enjoythevue.io/cloudflare-workers) Join us today as we talk to Ash Ryan Arnwine (developer experience leader for DataStax) about Getting Started Guides. Ash takes us through his experience with Vue, and how the guides in Vue 1 were the North Star for him when he was working with Adobe Creative Cloud. We discuss the challenges in migrating from different versions, and the downsides to Getting Started videos in place of text. Find out how keeping Ash's four-year-old daughter from sleeping is the highest praise the Vue team has received, and what each of the team feels is better: prescriptive or flexible guides. From picking the correct level to pitch your instructions at, to the different types of people defined as “developers”, you don't want to miss out on this information-packed episode! Key Points From This Episode: Welcome to Ash Ryan Arnwine, developer experience leader for DataStax and previously, Adobe Creative Cloud. Ash's introduction to Vue and why it became the North Star for thinking about writing documentation.  What makes the path from getting started to building an app clear.  Finding the balance between prescriptive and “sprinkling in some HTML” in Vue.  How Vue has a background framework beyond the beginner's instructions. The importance of being able to access the full app code on GitHub. Picking the level of developer that your Getting Started Guide caters to (sometimes the middle-ground is the worst place to be). Why you need to maintain your Getting Started Guide. How to highlight important information that people might skip when reading the Getting Started Guide.  The challenges of migrating from Vue 2 to Vue 3, and communicating it to users. Why it's crucial to make a roadmap of where the app is going. How Vue's completely honest self-appraisal won Ash over.  Why videos are less appealing than documents about Getting Started.  The naming conventions for Vue. Creating a community to talk about “software things” in different places.  How to contact Ash. Discover this week's picks from each of the team! Tweetables: “For a long time, I think Vue sort of became, in some ways, a North star for me personally, when thinking about documentation, and how do you orient somebody into a completely new technology.” — @ashryan_io (https://twitter.com/ashryan_io?lang=en) [0:02:12] “One thing that I've learned over time with just in leading developer relations and developer experience is that oftentimes, it's the sample code that turns into the most popular resource.” — @ashryan_io (https://twitter.com/ashryan_io?lang=en) [0:25:41] “Oftentimes, I think that the imperative is just like help people get started, help people get started, and we don't get a chance to step back and think, 'Okay, who are the people? What are they getting started doing?” — @ashryan_io (https://twitter.com/ashryan_io?lang=en) [0:29:59] “Developers are not a monolith.” — @ashryan_io (https://twitter.com/ashryan_io?lang=en) [0:33:44] "I think that when pondering developer experience, broadly, one of the things that is important to get to and be able to offer, but often isn't there at the very beginning is some sort of insight into the future, in terms of where things are going.” — @ashryan_io (https://twitter.com/ashryan_io?lang=en) [0:46:19] “Today, there's like so many awesome resources to learn.

Did you know that a feeling of disconnection from our dogs could be what's causing them to be anxious or reactive? Humans and dogs are wired to seek connection. It's part of our quest to find safety and comfort in our lives, and if that connection is disrupted, anxiety and stress start to kick in. We get lost in ‘the red zone.' In this episode of the Enlightened By Dogs podcast, Kathy explores the idea of co-regulation between humans and our dogs and how this relates to our nervous system. She explains how we can easily fall into the ‘red zone' or the ‘orange zone' of stress and how we can move to the ‘green zone' instead. Tune in to learn how by regulating our own behavior, we can help dogs to do the same and lead safer, calmer, and happier lives. In this episode: Why humans and dogs are wired to connect and seek safety How to get out of the stressful ‘red zone' How we can keep our dogs in the ‘green zone' Quotes: “We are wired for connection.” “You and your dog are biologically searching for a connection and looking for cues as to whether we are safe and available for connection.” “Once that whole process of anxiety and reactivity and over-arousal is triggered, it's like a self-generating loop.” Want More of Kathy?

If you are booking a commercial flight, what is the best seat to choose? You might want to look at row 49. Listen as I explain why flight attendant Sandra Jeenie Kwon (who has 7 million social media followers) says row 49 is where you will find the best seat on the flight. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-10115201/Flight-attendant-reveals-best-seat-plane-four-rows-back.html Who hasn't thought, “ I could stand to lose 5-10 pounds”? It seems like everyone wishes they weighed less. Yet, as anyone who has tried knows, it isn't easy. One big reason it is hard is that there are a lot of myths about what works and what doesn't work. Listen to my guest Robert Davis. He is an award-winning health journalist and author of the book Supersized Lies: How Myths About Weight Loss Are Keeping Us Fat (https://amzn.to/3ptX41Q) . He explodes the popular myths and explains the most effective and efficient ways to shed pounds according to real science.  Humans have and continue to mess with nature - not necessarily in a bad way but we do make changes that would otherwise not be made. For example, we modify food, we domesticate animals, we protect other species and their habitats from danger, we eradicate diseases and so on. We have altered nature in many ways - sometimes good, sometimes not. Joining me to discuss what that means to us today and in the future is biologist Beth Shapiro author of the book Life As We Made It: How 50,000 Years of Human Innovation Refined—and Redefined—Nature (https://amzn.to/3G8vAVy).  If there was an emergency and something happened to you, how would medical workers know who to call or what medications you are allergic too? Listen as I explain how your cellphone can speak for you when you can't - if you set it up right in the first place. https://www.huffpost.com/entry/android-iphone-emergency-contact-ice_l_5ce2e6aee4b075a35a2b9250 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS!

Open up to novelty. Go with the flow. Live in the moment. Embrace the relentless pelting of content minute by minute. But routine experts Angel Iscovich, MD, Joe Garner, and Michael Ashley are here to say that's a bad idea. Humans don't just benefit from structure; they require it. Years of observation and practice led to their breakthrough concept of routineology, the key to optimize your life and the cure for crisis. Routineology's fundamental prescriptive is to look inside and live your life in a “time bubble” to find purpose, meaning, and joy. Offering insights from top performers and stories of triumph over adversity, this book demonstrates that routine isn't just a good idea—it's imperative for surviving and thriving today. Live a life of deeper meaning and navigate toward a better world with The Art of Routine. ..

However, there are ways to overcome change-resistant mindsets. By driving understanding and reframing the effort, you can change employees minds (and their mindsets) to the betterment of your business.

In Enlightenment Now, Steven Pinker explains the impact of Enlightenment values – reason, science, and humanism – on the world. These values were instrumental in moving society forward, and Pinker worries that they are under threat.Humans have achieved a whole bunch of cool shit over the ages. Unfortunately, we take it for granted. Progress has a very funny way of erasing its tracks as we move forward as a species.The local supermarket is overflowing with food. You've got clean water on tap. You drop your waste in the toilet, and with a click of a button, it vanishes. We have pills that demolish painful infections, planes to take us to the other side of the world, cheap energy to pop the lights on, and you have all of the world's knowledge inside your pocket.We assume these things are birthrights, forgetting that they're human accomplishments. At some stage in history, a person worked on solving these problems and drove our society forward. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

In this fascinating interview, Laurie Higgins-Kerley shares the unique way she blends her love for horses and spirituality into a one-of-a-kind offering for individuals on the path of inner healing and expansion. She shares two significant personal experiences that caused her to ask “Who am I beyond this?” and “Where do I go from here?”, questions many of us can relate to when facing the perceived parameters and challenges of our respective lives. The initial questioning set her on a lifelong path of studying and certifying in multiple spiritual modalities including Shamanism, Medicine Wheel teachings and ceremonies, drumming circles, and Kundalini Yoga, all of which continues to deepen her understanding of who she is and allows her to facilitate workshops, retreats and coaching that aids others in their own journey of the soul. The loss of her husband in 2008 posed as one of the most challenging journeys of her soul. However, in a true “phoenix rising from the ashes” transformation, it led to both her most unique offering—the healing power of horses—and her next chapter—creating Dove Creek Equine Rescue, a non-profit focused on rescuing, rehabbing, retraining and rehoming horses. Laurie sees Dove Creek Equine Rescue as a beautiful circle of horses and humans giving back to one another, where this circle began with a few horses on the ranch left to her by her late husband offering her a powerful heart space to begin feeling moments of peace during the grieving process. Each time she left the ranch after spending time with the horses she felt the magnitude of their presence like a balm to her slowly healing soul. This initial handful of horses offering her healing in one of the most challenging chapters of her life has since led to the full-time rescue operation it is today, complete with volunteers showing up daily to care for and connect with the horses. The circle of healing between horses and humans continues in this organic fashion in all that she does through Dove Creek Equine Rescue and the workshops, retreats and coaching she offers through Led by Horses. Speaking of retreats, SoLive had the pleasure of attending a private weekend retreat at the ranch called “Phoenix Rising”, where Shanna and Tracey share a bit about their respective experiences while also leaving the mystery open for others to discover by booking a retreat of their own! (See contact info below.) Bio: Laurie Higgins-Kerley is the founder and Executive Director of the nonprofit organization, Dove Creek Equine Rescue. This organization provides a variety of programs, which focus on the healing partnership between horses and humans. As a certified coach through multiple platforms, Laurie has been facilitating workshops for more than 20 years. In addition to coaching with horses, her practices include Medicine Wheel teachings and ceremonies, drumming circles and yoga. Through her mastery of multiple modalities, Laurie has created a truly unique offerings at Dove Creek Equine Rescue resulting in one-of-a-kind experiences for those ready to live their best Life!

Threats are not new to business. Whenever there has been a plentiful economic prize, there have also been pirates. In the swashbuckling days, the captain and the crew were charged with protecting the merchandise on board. The difference today is the sheer volume of cyber attacks inbound to companies. Carolyn Crandall, the Chief Security Advocate and CMO at Attivo Networks, describes the attack as an enormous wave.Main TakeawaysA Security Threat Tsunami: Cyber attacks are like giant perpetual waves. Businesses are constantly inundated with these threats. The first steps toward fighting back are recognizing the power of one's adversaries, understanding how the company is being attacked, knowing where the company's vulnerabilities are, and then devising a plan to combat the attacks.Strategy over Monitoring: Businesses tend to want to monitor their systems and that's generally a good thing. Part of the method of attackers, however, is to overwhelm with data. Instead of only monitoring, companies have to decipher attacker techniques and then strategize on how to defend accordingly.Automate, Automate!: People can only do so much by themselves to defend against constant cyber attacks. Automation can be an answer to these attacks. Humans can't protect against the deluge of attacks by themselves and must lean on A.I. and machine learning to help combat these nefarious attacks. When companies begin to deploy an A.I. defense strategy, the designed algorithms can begin to decipher what is normal activity on network servers and what is not.Data Cloak and Disrupt: Misusing credentials is a great way for attackers to gain access to resources. It is possible to have an automated system, such as Attivo, that can bait rogue elements, gain their trust, and then deny their access while hiding vital data.IT Visionaries is brought to you by the Salesforce Platform - the #1 cloud platform for digital transformation of every experience.

On October 5th, NATO held a panel discussion on Cognitive Warfare against the people of the world. In this discussion they were quite candid about their goals: “cognitive warfare and new domain of competition, where state and non-state actors aim to influence what people think and how they act."

10/20/2021 Does the PCR Test Affect the Pineal Gland? Humans and “Transhumans”. The pineal gland was described as the “Seat of the Soul” by René Descartes (French 17th Century philosopher) and it is located in the center of the brain. The main function of the pineal gland is to receive information about the state of the light-dark cycle from the environment and convey this information to produce and secrete the hormone melatonin – which is giving humans senses and sensibilities. Reducing or eliminating these unique capacities, makes us humans vulnerable to “robotization”. She asserts that if there wasn't a deeper agenda behind the PCR-test, there would be no need to stick a test-swab deep into your sinuses where it touches a thin membrane that separates the sinus cavity from your brain. A saliva sample would be enough

Holmberg's Morning Sickness - Wednesday October 20, 2021

The underlying theme of my podcast is property investment, success and money, and today I will be talking a bit about success with Mark Creedon, founder of Business Accelerator Mastermind. But this isn't a business show – you will find what we discuss today relevant no matter what you do for a living, and if you are a property investor, you really do you have a business on the side – a property investment business. Many of us chase career titles, money, social status or even a big property portfolio — and yet we don't feel successful when we get those things. That's because you can only measure success in your life when you define what drives your happiness and helps you find purpose. So if you're struggling to define what a successful life means, you'll be pleased to hear Mark and me explain that: It's never too late to start over. You get to write your own definition of success. What is success? Is it wealth? Is it happiness? Is it fame? I have come to the conclusion that success can't be defined in one sentence, but instead, it is comprised of many things. Success is something you have to define for yourself and no one can do it for you. For some success means a sense of giving back to the world and making a difference. For others, it was a sense of accomplishment in their career or business. For others, it meant doing what they love. I bet there will be some people listening to this podcast disappointed in where they are in life at the moment. For some of their progress, we have been hindered by the economic and health challenges Covid has brought to us. For others, there will be various reasons why they haven't achieved the success they want to yet in life - yet. Stick with us because it's not too late and you're not too old to succeed. I'm sure you've heard stories like: At age 23, Oprah had just been fired from her first broadcasting job. At age 62, Colonel Sanders' fried chicken business KFC finally succeeded. At age 77, Nelson Mandela became South Africa's president after spending 27 years in jail. If we can learn anything from these people who succeed later in life, it's this: Success has no deadline. Success means attempting to move forward. Let's start with understanding the difference between accomplishment and success Accomplishment is often associated with success, but it is not the same. Accomplishment refers to the results we desire when we attempt to reach specific goals. Basically, it is the results that we plan or expect to occur. Success is the positive consequence or outcome of an achieved accomplishment. So what is needed to succeed in life? Physical health: you need to be physically healthy to have the energy to engage in life. If you don't have a baseline of health you can't function and can't be successful. Mental fitness: you need to be continuously engaging your mind. Learning and growing, experiencing new ideas, getting better, pursuing mastery, and putting your ideas to work to accomplish your goals. Emotional health: you need to be self-aware emotionally, feel good about yourself and have a positive self-image. If you are depressed to the point where you can't function, you can't be successful. Social health: you need positive relationships in your life and people that love and support you. You have friends and loved ones that you trust to make you a better person and inspire you to be better there are people you can call at any time of the night if you have a problem. Humans are social if you don't have people you care about and they care about you you can't be successful. Purpose/meaning/spiritual health: you make a positive impact in others' lives, giving meaning and purpose to your work and daily life. This keeps you focused and inspires you to overcome the day-to-day struggles and setbacks that are a part of everyone's life. Material wealth: there is a basic level of food shelter and clothing that all people need and that is paid for through money. If you are too poor or have too much stress from struggling financially you can't be successful. Conclusion Many people attribute success to how much money they have, what kind of car they drive, or the size of their home. However, should material items really define success? True success is gained not only from the achievement of our goals but also from the happiness and satisfaction derived from pursuing those goals.

Have you ever been so caught up in the process of creating something, you wind up losing sight of what you wanted as an end product? Hard work and ambition are admirable, especially when invested in the creation of new and exciting technologies. However, it is easy to get lost in the mechanics of work and to forget about the vision that inspired you to take up the mantle in the first place. In this episode, Alexander McCaig and Jason Rigby discuss the negative impact of the ongoing tech race on humanity—and how we can fix it. Are We Real-Life Inspector Gadgets?: Jason pointed out a discussion made by Aubrey Marcus that was pertinent to humanity's current situation. It was about how Inspector Gadget was dependent on his niece, Penny, to solve crimes and figure out cases. However, he always thought that he was the one responsible for saving the world when he created all sorts of new and complex technologies. Several parallels can be seen between humanity and Inspector Gadget. One is that despite our desire to foster peace and understanding, we do not approach such lofty goals with a concrete plan nor with small actions, we can commit to on a daily basis.  Another is in our obsession to constantly develop new and exciting technologies without a clear end goal in mind. Since the 1800s, when humans started experimenting with the implications of automating routine activities and making work more efficient, there has been a tendency to look at technology as a way to bring about heaven on earth.  However, utopia cannot be achieved just by perfecting the physical aspect of our world. It's also about the parts of our human experience that are not tangible, such as our understanding of one another. The work we put in research and development can easily become divorced from our understanding of each other, and of nature when we forget about using technology to co-create with nature and not around it. Technology Is Not the Key to Happiness: Why do we keep losing our way? According to Jason, it is because we believe that more tech automatically makes us more happy—even though there was never an assurance that increasingly sophisticated technologies would bring us more fulfillment.  If modern technology is being used to process and analyze data at the speed of light, why don't we turn to nature for inspiration more? Nature is constantly generating and giving data. The problem now is we are stuck churning out technology just for the sake of having it. When it comes to smartphones, it seems like we have plenty of new models to choose from every year. Plenty of people plan their finances around the next flagship device to be released, immediately letting go of the ones they just bought as they chase the next best thing. However, there was never a need to let go of so much tech. Their main function was to serve as tools for us to make better decisions, but not to hold our hand and teach us how to make these better decisions ourselves.  What's this extravagant tech race all about? What are we trying to reach for? Constructing the Tech Tower of Babel: Perhaps we invest in the latest technologies in the hopes that it can give us a deeper understanding of ourselves.  “We've had great advances in technology, but why has there not been a correlation of war and death going down? Why has human happiness not gone up? Right? Why have all these prevalent diseases increased?” Alex asked, “It's because we still lack understanding. The technology hasn't been designed to understand one another.” We could start using technology to start asking and answering difficult questions. Maybe we can finally compel ourselves to reflect on how there are aspects of our personality that are mirror images of what is happening around us; or how our thoughts are similar to the state of nature. We can look into the log of thoughts, behaviors, and actions that are produced by our devices to finally face the parts of ourselves that we've been trying to ignore. The TARTLE marketplace envisions a world where everybody has access to that deeper understanding. Anybody, regardless of their social status or location, can take responsibility for their part in changing the world.  Closing Thoughts: Standing in Solidarity: Amidst the pandemic, the call for isolation has had a massive effect on the human experience. We are similar to trees in that when we stand alone, the likelihoods of withering away are high. However, when we live in communes the way forests are made out of a society of trees, our individual identities and personalities help ensure our continued survival as a collective.  TARTLE is analogous to what is going on in the forest. It is composed of many people, with a wide variety of characteristics, personalities, and thoughts.

Humans are creatures of habit, but what happens when those habits actually harm us? A few weeks back Facebook had a whistleblower step up and share some of these patterns and habits that seem to be recurring in young teens social media usage. The patterns and habits of going from a healthy eating recipe post, to a fad diet sales page happens within minutes of connecting with content.  When I was young this was a marketing tactic I started to notice on my personal Instagram page. I started following health and fitness accounts to get more ideas of workouts for the gym, it started out very innocently. A few before and after posts, a few workout videos and next thing I know I'm on my instagram explore page and I see all of these graphics “Skinny is better than…..” WTF?  I didn't want to be marketed by these types of ads, luckily at the time I was at JMU and my sorority was openly talking about eating disorders, it happened to be our philanthropy. I saw how much it can impact people.  This was actually one of the reasons why I waited/hesitated with starting Meraki Media Management. I didn't want to be known to work with a platform that could harm children, adults, everyone. So much so that I really contemplated it. I told myself when I was creating my first course I would share these negative thoughts that I had while I was using social media. I wanted people to know, they aren't alone, and they don't have to stand for this type of content!  How do you feel about this recent publicity around Facebook and instagram? Please know that this account is a safe place. We do not stand hate here, if you hate you will be blocked, take that hate elsewhere!

Scientific consensus that humans are altering the climate may have surpassed 99.9 per cent, according to new peer-reviewed research that examined nearly 90-thousand climate related studies.

Katherine Chandler's Unmanning: How Humans, Machines and Media Perform Drone Warfare (Rutgers UP, 2020) studies the conditions that create unmanned platforms in the United States through a genealogy of experimental, pilotless planes flown between 1936 and 1992. Characteristics often attributed to the drone--including machine-like control, enmity and remoteness--are achieved by displacements between humans and machines that shape a mediated theater of war. Rather than primarily treating the drone as a result of the war on terror, this book examines contemporary targeted killing through a series of failed experiments to develop unmanned flight in the twentieth century. The human, machine and media parts of drone aircraft are organized to make an ostensibly not human framework for war that disavows its political underpinnings as technological advance. These experiments are tied to histories of global control, cybernetics, racism and colonialism. Drone crashes and failures call attention to the significance of human action in making technopolitics that comes to be opposed to "man" and the paradoxes at their basis. Galina Limorenko is a doctoral candidate in Neuroscience with a focus on biochemistry and molecular biology of neurodegenerative diseases at EPFL in Switzerland.

How many times have we been placed in uncomfortable situations, and in which ones can we confidently say that we had the knowledge we needed to exit the circumstance with grace? Sometimes, our minds take shortcuts when we need to work through complex problems so that we do not overburden ourselves— but when we start relying on ducking into the side alleys to get to the destination, we do not get a full perspective of what we are truly dealing with. In this episode, Alexander McCaig and Jason Rigby discuss the harmful tendency to live lives within our little bubbles, comfort zones, and echo chambers. They point to how data can show us the ultimate truth and the objective reality—and why we need to start paying attention. Zero and the Inter-Dimension: Right off the bat, Alexander and Jason kickstarted the discussion by comparing the function of our choices to the number line, with zero as the space where there is no value. The positives lie to the right dimension of zero, while the negatives make up the left dimension. This makes zero, as the middle point, an inter-dimension of sorts. We choose to pivot one way or another when faced with difficult events and circumstances in life. However, we may not always have the full capacity to make the best-informed choice. It is human nature to sit within our own comfort zones and echo chambers, because we like information that validates us and exchanges where we know what to do. Our best solution lies in harnessing the power of data. Regardless of religion, political affiliation, or social class, data is capable of making us question the distorted lens we view reality with. We have the opportunity to hold ourselves responsible for our thought processes and interactions with the help of data, instead of continuing to live our lives in a passive manner.  It is difficult to face the reality that we may not be making the most out of our lives now. After all, procrastination is a natural human instinct.  “When you stagnate and you don't afford yourself new catalysts. It's like you're working with the same old data set every single day. What's there to be learned? The data sets [have] stopped.” Alexander explained.  Data as the Ultimate Truth: We underestimate the power of an objective and apolitical observer in our lives, which is what data represents. It captures our thoughts, actions, and perceptions— even the ugly parts of us that are distorted. This could be caused by a subconscious adherence to tradition, lifestyle, beliefs, values, ignorance, and others.  These misconceptions affect our openness to other people. We may become upset because they do not follow the same thought processes or behavioral patterns we do. In the long term, it could isolate us from other people or communities because it feeds into an us versus them mentality.  A lack of self-awareness does not just have an impact on our quality of life, or the lives of those around us. We slowly become vulnerable to the whims of more influential figures, who do not have any qualms with exploiting the minorities and pandering to the needs of the masses for personal gain.  Since data represents the ultimate truth, we need to harness its power for ourselves. It can empower us to make better decisions on so many levels. We deserve the truth and the ability to make better choices. Closing Thoughts: Overcoming Cognitive and Personal Bias: While the capacity to make better choices is a reward in and of itself, it can now be an opportunity to be financially compensated as well. The TARTLE marketplace is a way for us to earn from contributing to the ultimate truth. It is a platform that encourages us to be more collaborative over authentic information.  We are in need of tools and platforms that give us the opportunity to see beyond ourselves. It is time for us to take a step forward. Understanding the truth behind our circumstances gives us a glimpse of what is timeless, of the objective reality around all of us. We no longer need to think in abstractions or to bend over backwards to justify our emotions when we can be energized by what is present in the here and now.

When it comes to dating, everyone has baggage in one way or another. Some of those bags tend to feel a bit heavier when carried into your next relationship and can really effect the way you handle yourself in positive and negative ways.

Statistics show that 30 million Americans have struggled with an eating disorder at some point in their lives. The most common eating disorders are anorexia, bulimia, binge eating, and orthorexia. Over exercising, overeating, and using food to avoid intolerable situations are also forms of disordered eating.    Many people with eating disorders go through conventional treatment, which is strict and based on managing weight and calories. It's not focused on how the person's psychology is underlying the condition, or how the condition is affecting their psychology.     -   In this episode of How Humans Heal I spoke with Mindy Gorman-Plutzer of The Freedom Promise [@thefreedompromise] who is changing the way support is offered for those with eating disorders.     Mindy herself recovered from an eating disorder, and in the process, observed what was missing from the treatment, and became passionate about offering other solutions for people going through eating challenges and desiring the same sort of transformation.     -   We discuss:  -How all systems of the body and mind are connected    -The difference between “Doing recovery” versus being recovered    -The power of story to understand the context of the behaviors    -The behaviors started out as a solution; they are not the problem    -Eating disorders versus disordered eating    -How digestive issues are so common with eating disorders    -The gut-brain axis    -The benefits of supporting vagal tone    -And so much more    -    Mindy explains that the definition of recovery is to regain what was lost. When we lose ourselves to compulsive behaviors, we lose a part of ourselves. The part that is left is bound by rules. Mindy thinks of recovery as liberation. She emphasizes that recovery looks different for everybody because we are unique individuals.     Our first experience of being seen in life was related to eating. As we start to develop autonomy, if we don't feel safe, we always have food to turn to. It helps us and represents love and safety. Pile on cultural messages related to food and diet, and we end up in comparison instead of connection. We become disconnected from the wisdom of our bodies. It is no wonder that eating disorders are so common.    -    90-98% of people with eating disorders today also have severe digestive distress. Children who have digestive issues, have a higher predisposition to an eating disorder later in life. It is important to address digestion and reactions to foods in the recovery process, to really allow the person to understand and reconnect with their own bodies.    -   I love how Mindy shares her insight into how humans heal: “Humans heal when they feel empowered. When they are involved in a therapeutic partnership with a practitioner who knows how to listen. We can become the masters of our own healing.”     She wishes she could get the decades of her life back that she gave up to the scale and the image she thought she needed to project. Now she helps others find the sacred space of solitude in themselves where there is no fear.    -   If you are someone you know is struggling with eating or your relationship with food, please listen in to this episode. To know that there is another way of supporting you through the process of recovery can be empowering itself.    To learn more about Mindy and her online program and book, go to www.thefreedomporimise.com.      Connect with Dr. Doni:    Facebook HTTPS://FACEBOOK.COM/DRDONIWILSON   Instagram HTTPS://INSTAGRAM.COM/DRDONIWILSON   YouTube HTTPS://YOUTUBE.COM/USER/DONIWILSONND   Weekly Wellness Wisdom Newsletter: HTTPS://DOCTORDONI.COM/WWW     Books and Resources:    Stress Warrior Book (FREE)  HTTPS://DOCTORDONI.COM/STRESSWARRIOR      Stress Warrior Stress Resiliency Facebook Group (FREE)  HTTPS://FACEBOOK.COM/GROUPS/STRESSWARRIOR     7-day Stress Reset (FREE)  HTTPS://DOCTORDONI.COM/STRESS-RESET     HPV & Cervical Dysplasia Guide (FREE)  HTTPS://DOCTORDONI.COM/HPV-AND-CERVICAL-DYSPLASIA-GUIDE/       Personalized Solutions:    If you'd like to meet with Dr. Doni one-on-one for your health, request a Health Breakthrough Session: HTTPS://DOCTORDONI.COM/BREAKTHROUGH     To get an idea of more comprehensive options, read about Dr. Doni's Signature Consultation Programs: HTTPS://DOCTORDONI.COM/SERVICES

Episode 348 – We don't plug in.   Today we have Kerry.  She is 31, from Philadelphia, and took her last drink on January 2,2021.   Recovery Elevator is going to be Denver Colorado at the Hilton Garden inn at Union Station.  New Dates: March 31 – April 2.   Register: https://www.recoveryelevator.com/denver/   Paul will be teaching a ukulele 101 course in February 2022.  https://recoveryelevator.com/events   Highlights from Paul   Humans don't plug in like a phone with a charger, however we do recharge.  In the 21st century we are pulled in many different directions.  Addictions are adaptive behaviors that manifest in unhealthy, stressful environments, especially when we are running on empty.   Paul offers some practical ways for us to recharge including go barefoot on the earth/grass, eat live foods 2x a day, eat less frequently, sleep more, nap, read a good book, socialize with other sober people, get out in nature, do something that brings you joy, and JOMO (joy of missing out) – skip those stressful events.  Recharging takes practice.  Remind yourself that it is a gift you are giving yourself.   Exact Nature exactnature.com  Code:  RE20   [11:30] Odette welcomes Kerry   Kerry took her last drink January 2, 2021.  She is a registered dietician, is married and has two cats.  Her side hustle includes several books and mocktails.  See: https://thesoberdietitians.com/  Instagram:thesoberdieticians   Kerry didn't start drinking until college.   She did drink wine.   She was given an opportunity to write a mocktail book with her friend, Diana for pregnant women.  As with many, her drinking increased in 2020.  She was drinking daily.   Kerry read a lot  about the rise of alcohol use during the pandemic.  She and her friend, Diana were writing their 2nd book and began linking alcohol and health.  Kerry started looking at her own relationship with alcohol.  She completed a 30-day AF challenge.  She returned to drinking but drank mindfully.  She and Diana completed another 30-day challenge together.  They explored several AF options.  Diana quit drinking entirely and Kerry's drinking diminished.  Kerry celebrated a friend's engagement with champagne and that was her last drink.  She learned so much about alcohol as an author and realized she didn't need alcohol anymore.    Kerry didn't love the feeling that came with drinking alcohol.  She realized that she couldn't accomplish as much when she was hungover.  She also realized how prevalent alcohol is on TV or in movies.  We normalize problematic drinking.   She and her husband have enjoyed taking the sober curious journey together.  She misses red wine and pumpkin beer and hasn't found a great AF alternative to either yet.   She is tempted to return to drinking, but her current plan is to stay AF.  She served AF options including a signature mocktail at her wedding.    Kerry has become aware that ethanol is a carcinogen and has become more mindful about the ramifications of drinking while pregnant.  She is concerned that we promote red wine as being heart healthy when we can't measure how much of the antioxidants enter the body.  She has made great connections with the sober and sober curious people on social media.   Odette's Summary Odette has been sober for nearly three years.  She recognizes she is imposing a fair number of expectations on herself specific to what her recovery should look like.  She encourages us not to beat ourselves up.  Use the tools that are working for you.   Sponsor: Exact Nature exactnature.com  Code:  RE20   Upcoming events, retreats, and courses: You can find more information about our events   Resources Connect with Cafe RE - Use the promo code OPPORTUNITY to waive the set-up fee.

When the Hirshhorn Museum told Laurie Anderson that it wanted to put on a big, lavish retrospective of her work, she said no.For one thing, she was busy and has been for roughly 50 years. Over the course of her incessant career, Ms. Anderson has done just about everything a creative person can do. She helped design an Olympics opening ceremony, served as the official artist in residence for NASA, made an opera out of “Moby-Dick” and played a concert for dogs at the Sydney Opera House. And she is still going.On top of all this, Ms. Anderson had philosophical qualms about a retrospective. She is 74, which seems like a very normal age to stop and look back, and yet she seems determined, at all times, to keep moving forward.This story was written by Sam Anderson and recorded by Audm.

About Today's Guest: Ryan Musgrave-Evans is a lifelong experiencer and dedicated investigator of the beings we often call aliens, and once called fairies. His new book Children of Orion: Finding the Cryptoterrestrials looks at the details of several experiencer/whistleblower stories and cross references them for commonalities, as well as compares them to the things Ryan has seen or been told firsthand by these beings. Ultimately, he makes the case that these beings might not be alien, but rather, something much closer to home: A race of future humans called 'the Majeena' (or Wandjina) that live beneath our oceans and within our mountains. This is the race dubbed 'P-52 Orions' by MJ-12 and called 'Tall Whites' by Charles James Hall.
