On this week's episode of Tying it Together, host Tim Boyum tackles the debate over North Carolina's one of a kind Innocence Inquiry Commission.  Since 2007, it has exonerated 16 people, many serving over 20 years in prison for crimes they did not commit.  However, the state Senate wants to cut its funding. The commission's leader Laura Pierro joins Tim to discuss how it works and why she thinks the state must continue funding it.

This week's inquiry begins by noticing all the movements of life. Relationships, jobs, houses, cars, kids, wellbeing … everyday stuff. Do you experience any resistance just hearing that list? If you do, we invite you to follow along with an inquiry on the likely cause of that stress: believing the thought, “I have to keep it all going.” Is it true? Can you absolutely know that it's true? Does this thought bring peace or stress into your life? If it's stressful, it might be worth a second look.

In part two of this deep conversation, two “happy” masters of meditation, Loch Kelly and Henry Shukman, explore a range of topics and questions through the lens of awakening as a natural human potential. What can we learn about how to shift into awake mind and heart to live with and recover from injury and long Covid? What is effortless focus and flow, aka Flow Know? And why is it so important for meditation and mindfulness practitioners to understand the distinctions between conventional mindfulness and more direct paths like Zen and Effortless Mindfulness? And finally, what are the benefits of new emergent spiritual models that integrate nondual mindfulness and Internal Family Systems? How does it work and how are models like this different from more traditional approaches to waking up and growing up? Loch and Henry Shukman engage with these questions and more.Part 1 RecapIn part one, Loch and Henry Shukman explore their similar and unique approaches to awakening. With delight and curiosity, they share some of their own initial awakening experiences. They also discuss their process of discovering and unfolding and how they share it with students. To this end, they unpack and illuminate the contemplative art and science of Inquiry and Koans as ways to shift out of the chattering mind and into our already awake heart mind. Henry talks about his experience with Zen Koans and Loch shares his Mahamudra approach to inquiry. Loch calls this Glimpsing, and it emphasizes immediate experiential pointers which help practitioners directly realize their already awake nature. Henry Shukman BioHenry Shukman is a meditation teacher, poet, author, and co-founder of the single-path meditation app The Way. His most recent books are Original Love: The Four Inns on the Path of Awakening (HarperOne) and the Zen memoir One Blade of Grass. He has taught at Google, the New York Times, Harvard Business School and Medical School, and the Institute of American Indian Arts. He has written several award-winning and bestselling books of fiction and poetry. His poems have appeared in The New Yorker, Guardian, Times and Sunday Times. He has an M.A. from Cambridge and an MLitt from St Andrews.Mindful Glimpse The episode features Loch offering a guided practice called “Learn to Stay in Your Heart.” These mindful glimpses serve as invaluable tools for experiencing ways to access the awake consciousness that is already here within all of us. You can now explore all of Loch Kelly's practices and teachings on the new Mindful Glimpses app, found at https://lochkelly.org/mindful-glimpses. This innovative meditation and wellness app offers daily micro-meditations, step-by-step programs, and simple-yet-advanced tools for awakening.Loch Kelly Bio Loch is the creator of the Mindful Glimpses app, and an award-winning author, psychotherapist, and non-dual meditation teacher. He is also known for his unique practical methods that support awakening as the next natural stage of human development. Backed by modern neuroscience and psychology, Loch introduces Effortless Mindfulness, which combines an ancient form of nondual meditation and IFS psychology that allows immediate access to our embodied awake nature which arises as our calm, clear, and compassionate healing capacity.

Grace Bell, facilitator of The Work, assists people to identify and question their stressful ways of looking at life.  She offers Year of Inquiry, a vibrant membership community of inquirers Sept-June each year. Learn more about Year of Inquiry at https://workwithgrace.com/year-of-inquiry Grace also has a special love for those suffering from eating issues including disordered eating (disordered thinking) of all kinds--having suffered from this behavior and thought/feeling process herself and finding an unshakable peace within around eating, food, health and behaviors with eating.  Grace works with all kinds of compulsions, habits and addictions as they are all the same thing: a pull to some behavior, substance or activity in order to help us with our stressful feelings and thoughts. As Byron Katie offers us (founder of The Work); when we believe what we think, it creates unnecessary suffering. When we question what we think, we feel lighter and less serious about what is. We even begin to laugh. We notice who we really are is peaceful already, a human being living life as best we can--learning, growing, loving.  In the public sessions on this youtube channel, we have all-group inquiry sessions called First Friday Inquiry, we have interviews with practitioners of The Work, we have Eating Peace videos (on the eating peace playlist) and we have individual sessions in The Work by courageous people willing to be recorded for Peace Talk podcast and this channel. Thanks to everyone involved in what is shared here on this channel, as it is great service to others in the world who find their way here and who are curious about life without "believing" thought all the time.   In all-group sessions and solo sessions, we begin with a judgment...and move into the four questions and turnarounds. Willingness to be real and honest with your thinking is the first powerful step in The Work.  No one ever has to share when attending Friday Inquiry, and thank you when you do.   For the Work With Grace programs and more information, and to get on the Grace Notes mailing list for updates and sharing of all kinds around The Work, please visit www.workwithgrace.com To receive notice of Eating Peace programs, videos and vlog posts, visit www.workwithgrace.com/eating-peace and join the mailing list.

This week's episode holds space for one of the main fears that can come up when we're experimenting with inquiry and getting free: the fear of being insensitive. As Tom points out, deep down nobody wants to be insensitive to the suffering that goes on in this world. And when we reach states of openness and freedom ourselves, sometimes the fear that shows up is hurting other people by not joining them in their misery. Through a vulnerable health-related share and an exploration into the possibility that everything – everything – works out in the best way possible, that sparks the conversation about how sensitivity fits into the equation of personal liberation, we invite you to join in on The Work.

“Measles is back, and it's a wake-up call,” proclaimed one regional director from the World Health Organisation who went on to add, “without high vaccination rates, there is no health security.”Measles is a childhood disease which can be deadly. We've been successfully vaccinating against it for decades. So much so that many younger physicians have never seen a child with the disease. But recently, the recorded number of cases has been rising - and this is a global trend. Measles is one of the most contagious viruses known to man. In an unvaccinated population it will spread like wildfire. So what's behind the rapid rise of measles cases around the world? According to one of our expert witnesses it comes down to three Cs: complacency, convenience and confidence.In this edition of the Inquiry, Sandra Kanthal looks into what's causing the rise in measles cases around the world and asks how this trend can be reversed.Contributors:Doctor Claudia Cojocaru – Romanian physician and neonatologistRobb Butler - Director of the Division of Communicable Diseases, Environment and Health: World Health OrganisationDr Benjamin Kasstan-Dabush -Assistant Professor, London School of Hygiene and Tropical MedicineFatima Cengic, Regional Immunization Specialist, Europe and Central Asia: UNICEFPresenter: Sandra Kanthal Production: Katie Morgan Production Management Assistant: Liam Morrey Technical Producer: James Beard Editor: Tara McDermott

Do you notice within yourself a tendency to approach life from a place of resistance? Resistance to what you don't want to experience, resistance to what appears to oppose you, or resistance in its other form: effort. Often we hold tightly to resistance as if it's the only thing between us and utter disaster. Or just living an experience we don't like. But could it be that our resistance is the only thing between us and relaxation? And that the only thing effort truly brings into our lives is stress? As Katie says, don't believe it. Find out for yourself. Follow along in this week's episode exploring our habit of resistance.

In this enlightening discourse, we unveil a remarkable revelation concerning the father of modern American football, Walter Camp, whose historical narrative is unexpectedly marred by an allegation of attempted murder.

Appalling; insulting; another broken promise; and a total kick in the guts - those are the words of abuse in care survivors, who are united in their view that the government has betrayed them with its changes to redress announced today. The government will not be setting up a new compensation scheme for survivors, as it had promised for so long, and as the Abuse in Care Royal Commission of Inquiry had recommended. Instead, 774-million dollars will be spent improving the existing system and to make changes to New Zealand's care system. Timothy Brown has the story.

Serbia's citizens have been protesting for over six months, taking part in demonstrations around the country in reaction to their government's alleged corruption. Though the country's president, Aleksandar Vučić, has attempted to appease them, the movement shows no sign of slowing down.Situated in the Western Balkans, Serbia has had a long history of conflict; from the Ottoman Empire to the dissolution of Yugoslavia, but the ongoing civil unrest comes at a crossroads moment for President Vučić. Serbia is awaiting approval to join the European Union yet remains closely tied with the Kremlin.As the Serbian government seeks to solidify its place in the world, protestors continue their calls for transparency and accountability. This week on The Inquiry we ask “Will Serbia's mass protests unseat the president?”Contributors: Gordana Andric, Executive Editor at Balkan Investigative Reporting Network, Belgrade, Serbia Dr. Andi Hoxhaj OBE, Lecturer in Law and the Director of the European Law LLM pathway programme, King's College, London Ivana Randelovic, Senior Programme Officer for Europe at Civil Rights Defenders, Belgrade, Serbia Dr. Helena Ivanov, Associate Research Fellow at the Henry Jackson Society, Belgrade, SerbiaPresenter: Tanya Beckett Producer: Daniel Rosney Researcher: Maeve Schaffer Editor: Tara McDermott Technical Producer: James Bradshaw Production Management Assistant: Liam MorreyImage credit: Srdjan Stevanovic via Getty Images

“If I receive, I owe something in return.” This thought is drilled into us from the very beginning with the teaching of “pleases” and “thank yous,” but is it true? It can be so easy to slip into the current of belief in this thought, because that's the way the world seems to work. But might it work differently if we didn't believe that receiving and owing go hand-in-hand? And more importantly, what is it like on a personal level believing that it's true that we can't receive without owing something in return? Could it be that nature doesn't live by rules of owing and earning? Have any of us ever actually earned the incredible abundance of the sun? Or the devotion of the chair that holds us up? Maybe those are clues to the nature of life, and therefore the nature of us.

In this episode of The Balance, I sit down with Ruba Abi Saab, Instructional Coach and Teaching and Learning Coordinator at Al Rayan International School in Accra, Ghana. Ruba shares how concept-based inquiry shapes her work with teachers and students, encouraging deeper thinking, empathy, and purposeful action. We talk about her passion for integrating service learning, graphic organizers, and play-based strategies in early years classrooms to foster both academic and emotional growth. Ruba also reflects on our work together implementing Universal Design for Learning and blended learning models, and the impact these approaches have had on teacher practice and student engagement. If you're looking to make learning more meaningful and inclusive, this conversation is full of insight and inspiration.

ABC is really feeling the pressure now… Plus, a Judge just ruled that ICE must present a warrant when arresting suspected criminals that are in the country illegally. What’s up with that? Historically, ICE has not needed a warrant because if they feared a suspected illegal criminal might flee.

We notice who we really are is peaceful already, a human being living life as best we can--learning, growing, loving.  In the public sessions on this youtube channel, we have all-group inquiry sessions called First Friday Inquiry, we have interviews with practitioners of The Work, we have Eating Peace videos (on the eating peace playlist) and we have individual sessions in The Work by courageous people willing to be recorded for Peace Talk podcast and this channel. Thanks to everyone involved in what is shared here on this channel, as it is great service to others in the world who find their way here and who are curious about life without "believing" thought all the time.   In all-group sessions and solo sessions, we begin with a judgment...and move into the four questions and turnarounds. Willingness to be real and honest with your thinking is the first powerful step in The Work.  No one ever has to share when attending Friday Inquiry, and thank you when you do.   For the Work With Grace programs and more information, and to get on the Grace Notes mailing list for updates and sharing of all kinds around The Work, please visit www.workwithgrace.com To receive notice of Eating Peace programs, videos and vlog posts, visit www.workwithgrace.com/eating-peace and join the mailing list.

S2 E40 RADIO Daiquiri Inquiry Bob Cutler of Novio's Bistro teaches listeners how to make a fresh strawberry daiquiri and a creative strawberry-rhubarb daiquiri during a fun, spring-themed episode of Cocktails with Friends on the George Hale Ric Tyler Show. He explains the classic daiquiri build, how to modify recipes with different spirits, and emphasizes that making simple syrup at home is easy. Bob shares his love for “pink drinks,” laughs with George about prom memories and gin fizzes, and invites listeners to celebrate the Kentucky Derby Watch Party at Birdie's at Bangor Muni!  Key Topics The Versatility of the Classic Daiquiri Build - A classic daiquiri is a launchpad for endless creativity. Bob shows how swapping out spirits, syrups, or fruits can quickly turn one drink into dozens. Mastering this basic build gives home bartenders the confidence to experiment and have fun. The Importance of Using Fresh Ingredients - Fresh ingredients make cocktails shine. Bob stresses that fresh-squeezed citrus and homemade simple syrup always taste better than store-bought versions. A few extra minutes of prep delivers huge flavor payoffs. Having Fun and Being Creative Behind the Bar - Cocktail-making should be fun, not stressful. Bob's playful approach reminds listeners to stay relaxed, try new ideas, and enjoy the process. The best cocktails come from creativity and a good attitude. Episode Index [00:00-02:30]: Bob introduces the build of a classic daiquiri — ONE AND A HALF ounces of spirit, THREE-QUARTERS ounce of citrus, THREE-QUARTERS ounce of sugar — using Courtney's homemade strawberry syrup. [03:00-06:00]: Bob creates a second cocktail, a strawberry-rhubarb daiquiri, using farmer's gin, Giffard strawberry liqueur, and Doladira rhubarb amaro. [06:00-08:00]: Bob explains cocktail modifications — swapping spirits like gin to tequila creates a margarita-like drink, and changing citrus changes the vibe. [08:00-09:30]: Bob stresses that homemade simple syrup is easy, cheap, and way better than bottled syrups for home bartenders. [09:30-End (~11:00)]: Bob and George joke about pink drinks, share memories like ordering gin fizzes at prom, promote the Kentucky Derby party, and remind listeners to check out Cocktails with Friends.

Byron Katie does not want people's approval. She has no interest in manipulating people out of the way they see her. She wants them to think the way they think. According to Katie, that's love. In this episode, Tom guides a meditation around noticing wanting approval. Noticing what it's like living in the world of holding tightly to that desire, and noticing what it's like being free of it. Could it be that it doesn't matter what anyone is thinking about me? We invite you to follow along in this inquiry with situations in your own life where you notice attachment to being approved of.

This lecture is entitled An Inquiry into the Value of Work: A Discussion of Matt Crawford's Shop Class as Soulcraft.

Stephen Lloyd-Moffett, professor of Religious Studies at California Polytechnic State University in San Luis Obispo, CA, is also a campus moderator for the Veritas Forum, a non-profit organization that seeks to help students on college campuses explore truth in dialogue across religious beliefs. On today's episode, Tim, Rick and Stephen consider: What makes for a good moderator when disagreement pops up? And how do you keep the relationship in tact when a pointed and meaningful disagreement occurs? They discuss the importance of building muscle for inquiry and learning how to use educational environments to challenge and strengthen faith convictions. Tim and Rick also ask Stephen about the perceptions of evangelicals on the campus.Show notes and a full transcript are available.
