If you've ever struggled with chronic stress, poor sleep, anxiety, or burnout—this episode might just change your life. I'm sitting down with Jim Poole, CEO of NuCalm, to explore the groundbreaking neuroacoustic technology that's helping thousands of people around the world reset their nervous systems—without drugs or side effects.Jim explains how NuCalm works at the intersection of physics, mathematics, and neurobiology, using patented algorithms and biosignal processing to guide the brain into states of deep relaxation. We get into how it's used to decelerate brainwave frequencies, balance the autonomic nervous system, and bring the body back into homeostasis. This is next-level nervous system hygiene, backed by clinical research and used by elite athletes, CEOs, Navy SEALs, and trauma survivors alike.We also talk about the physiological mechanics of stress, the importance of vagus nerve stimulation, and why breathwork, cold plunges, and psychedelics often fail to address the chronic baseline tension most of us live with. Jim shares insights on trauma recovery, why traditional talk therapy can fall short, and how we can retrain the brain to unlearn suffering.This conversation was incredibly eye-opening. If you're looking for a safe, effective, and science-backed way to reclaim your mental clarity, energy, and sleep—NuCalm might be the missing link.

What to listen for:"I care about my dog's emotional state, how they're feeling, and how confident they are. And I work on that a lot."Two-thirds of the Dames of Detection, Stacy Barnett and Crystal Wing, sit down with obedience trainer Petra Ford, who unpacks the importance of seeing dogs as individuals, not assumptions!Real progress, she says, starts when you stop correcting and start connecting.Petra shares how letting go of labels like “nervous” transformed her relationship with her dog Zeal—and how trainers often project past experiences onto new dogs without realizing it. She encourages slowing down and objectively observing, not assuming. Each dog deserves to be seen for who they are, not who came before them.Through her work with a neurologically atypical dog, Petra developed calming strategies rooted in deep pressure, similar to techniques used for autistic children. These evolved into arousal “thermostat” cues that help her dogs self-regulate and perform with clarity and joy.Petra's training is driven by curiosity and persistence. She doesn't rely on recipes—she adapts, explores, and adjusts until the dog understands. Whether teaching a front or building confidence under ring pressure, her dogs learn through games, not grind. They don't just perform on command—they actually want to succeed, themselves.At the core of Petra's philosophy is respect: for the dog's emotional state, for their individuality, and for the bond they share. Titles may come, but the real reward is the connection.Because in the end, as Petra reminds us, training isn't about forcing the dog to meet our goals. The best trainers don't mold the dog to fit the plan—they mold the plan to fit the dog.Key Topics:Reframing "Nervous" Dogs and Letting Go of Labels (06:46)Using Deep Pressure for Emotional Regulation (14:21)Teaching Arousal Cues and Emotional Balance (16:58)Fitness, Recovery, and Mental Breaks (21:58)The Art of Adapting Your Training Strategy to the Dog (33:07)Why Listening to the Dog Matters Most (36:21)Creating Joy in Precision: Obedience as Play (41:10)Working Through Pressure, Not Against It (42:57)From Zero Confidence to Mental Mastery (49:45)Resources:Petra Ford on FENZIPetra Ford on FacebookJane Savoie - It's Not Just About the Ribbons: It's About Enriching Riding (and Life) with a Winning Attitude (affiliate link)We want to hear from you:Check out the K9 Detection Collaborative FB page and comment on the episode post!K9Sensus Detection Dog Trainer AcademyK9Sensus Foundation can be found on Facebook and Instagram.

Welcome to the Sustainable Clinical Medicine Podcast! In this special cross-pollinated episode, Dr. Sarah Smith sits down with Dr. Siobhan Key and Dr. Jessie Mahoney—two fellow physician coaches and long-time collaborators—for a candid conversation about reframing life and work in medicine for greater sustainability. As the panel reflects on the past year and looks forward to 2025, they open up about personal growth, big life transitions, and how each of them is intentionally crafting a more fulfilling and balanced life both inside and outside the clinic. Listen in as Dr. Smith shares her journey of returning to Australia and embracing new adventures, Dr. Mahoney discusses building a retreat center and leaning into new opportunities, and Dr. Key explores the importance of replenishment, self-reflection, and pursuing passions beyond medicine. Together, they offer practical insights on adapting to change—whether it's integrating new technologies like AI scribing or simply surviving a new EMR rollout—and they speak honestly about the discomfort, excitement, and learning that comes with growth. This episode is filled with tips for creating sustainable routines, reflections on personal and professional development, and encouragement to embrace both the challenges and rewards of transformation. Whether you're a seasoned physician or just starting your practice, you'll find reassurance and inspiration in the stories, strategies, and camaraderie shared in today's discussion. Let's dive in! Here are 3 key takeaways from this episode: Embrace Change at Your Own Pace: Whether it's new technology like AI scribing or a shift in your clinical environment, remember that adapting is a process—not a race. Give yourself grace and patience as you work through the inefficiencies and discomfort that accompany change (you're not alone in feeling overwhelmed at times!). Intentional Reflection Fuels Growth: Instead of traditional resolutions, try reflecting on the past year—what you're proud of, what challenged you, and what you truly want in the year ahead. For us, themes like connection, adventure, belonging, and “more me” set the tone for 2024. Connection & Coaching Matter: Sharing your struggles and wins—whether in group coaching, with a colleague, or through community—reduces isolation and leads to creative solutions. Investing in yourself (through coaching or peer support) isn't just valuable, it's transformative for your career and well-being. Letting Go of Frustration and Embracing Change Dr. Jessie Mahoney, a mindfulness coach and yoga instructor, shared a powerful analogy from her life. She recently moved to the countryside, where a creek outside her home serves as a daily reminder of how life ebbs and flows. Some days, the creek is calm and quiet; other days, it's noisy and chaotic. She's learned to embrace these shifts, recognizing that frustration only makes the hard moments harder. For physicians, this perspective is invaluable. Whether it's navigating a new workflow or dealing with workplace changes, letting go of frustration and focusing on what you can control can make all the difference. Asking for What You Need Dr. Sarah Smith has been adjusting to life and work in a new country, and she shared a simple but effective strategy: step back and ask yourself, What do I need to make this work for me? Whether you're facing a new team dynamic or adapting to technological shifts in your practice, pausing to evaluate your needs—and advocating for them—can help you approach change with confidence instead of overwhelm. -------------- Would you like to view a transcript of this episode?

He reflects on the interconnectedness of all beings, the importance of daily practice, and how suffering can be a motivator for transformation. This conversation is a heartfelt invitation to live with gratitude and awareness, perfect for anyone seeking deeper meaning and connection."Practice is the most important thing. It's dropping an anchor into the ocean. And then when the winds blow you this way and that way, you're not blown around too much.”~ Krishna Das--Few figures in modern spirituality, particularly in the West, have impacted the hearts and minds of contemporary seekers as Krishna Das has. A devotee of the North Indian Saint, Neem Karoli Baba (Maharajji), Krishna Das has played an enormous role in popularizing the traditional practice of kirtan in the West, taking the call-and-response chanting out of yoga centers and temples and into concert halls, becoming a worldwide icon and the best-selling western chant artist of all time. In a career spanning more than two decades, KD has released 16 acclaimed full-length albums, his music serving as an easily approachable gateway to the devotional traditions of the East. Along the way, he has evolved into an accessible if somewhat reluctant teacher, and a spiritual friend to many. He travels the world sharing his kirtan practice and stories of his life on the Path, of Maharajiji, and advocates for bringing regular spiritual practice into our lives through retreats and workshops. During COVID times he has chanted online every week for the worldwide satsang. More information on KrishnaDas.com. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Text: Mark 10:17–31 Coleton taught from the story of the rich young ruler, highlighting how a man who seemed to have everything—morality, status, and wealth—still lacked the one thing that truly mattered: Jesus. His story shows us three important lessons we must learn if we want to experience eternal life and freedom. 1. Good Moral Behavior Cannot Earn Eternal Life The rich man did everything right—he kept the commandments, approached Jesus with humility, and even received Jesus' love—but he still lacked something. Jesus identified the issue: the man didn't want Jesus, he wanted eternal life on his own terms. Eternal life isn't a reward for good behavior; it's a relationship with Jesus. Jesus made this clear: “You still lack one thing… come, follow me.” (v. 21) Eternal life is not about what you've done; it's about who you're with. Jesus offers Himself, not a checklist. And many religious people today are in danger of missing Jesus because they substitute routines for relationship. “Eternal life is life with Jesus, not just doing things for Jesus.” 2. You Will Always Sacrifice for What You Worship Jesus asked the man to give up his wealth because it had become his god. But the man walked away sad. Why? Because even though he said no to Jesus, he still sacrificed something—his joy—for his idol. Coleton showed how everyone sacrifices for what they worship: money, power, approval, comfort—all demand sacrifice. The question isn't will you sacrifice? but for whom or what will you sacrifice? The promise of Jesus is that any sacrifice for Him is always worth it. He gives back more—both in this life and the one to come. 3. Many People Stay Trapped Because They Choose To The man recognized something was missing in his life. He came to Jesus looking for answers. Jesus gave him one—but the man chose to walk away sad. Like a monkey caught in a trap holding onto rice, the man wouldn't let go of what was trapping him. His imprisonment was a choice. Many of us are the same. Jesus offers freedom, joy, and life—but we reject it because we won't let go of control, sin, pride, or pain. Coleton challenged the listeners to stop choosing captivity when Jesus offers freedom. ⸻ Discussion Questions:     1.    In what ways are you tempted to treat eternal life like a reward instead of a relationship?     2.    Are there areas in your life where you're “doing the right things” but missing closeness with Jesus?     3.    What are you currently sacrificing for the thing you worship most? Is it worth the cost?     4.    Jesus promises more than what you sacrifice—do you trust Him to provide in the places you feel afraid to let go?     5.    Is there something you know Jesus is calling you to let go of—but you've been holding onto it? What's keeping you from releasing it?     6.    Have you ever felt like the rich man—sad, stuck, or spiritually dry—despite doing everything “right”? What do you think Jesus might be inviting you into instead? ⸻ Quoted Authors and Illustrations:     •    John Maxwell “A wise person learns from his mistakes. A wiser one learns from others' mistakes.”     •    David Foster Wallace (from his 2005 Kenyon College commencement address) “There is no such thing as not worshipping. Everybody worships… Worship money and you will never have enough… Worship your body and beauty and you will always feel ugly… Worship power and you will feel weak… Worship your intellect… you will end up feeling like a fraud.”     •    Robert Pirsig, Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance “There's an old South Indian Monkey Trap… The only reason [the monkey] can't be free is because of his own choices.” ⸻ Key Takeaways:     •    Eternal life isn't earned—it's received through a relationship with Jesus.     •    Everyone sacrifices for what they worship. The only safe place to direct that sacrifice is Jesus.     •    Sometimes the reason we stay stuck is not because there's no way out—but because we won't let go of what's trapping us.

As your host, Gina Ryan, I delve into the theme of enoughness, creating a safe and comfortable environment where we can collectively unwind and reconnect with our inherent worth.The episode begins with a heartfelt invitation to pause, as we often rush through life multitasking and striving for perfection. I emphasize the importance of taking a moment to simply be present, without the need to fulfill any external expectations. This moment serves as a sanctuary, allowing us to escape the chaos of daily demands and ground ourselves in the tranquility that comes from acknowledging our enoughness.As we transition into the guided meditation, I encourage listeners to release the inner critic that can weigh heavily on our minds. By creating a space dedicated to self-compassion, we can recognize that our value is not dictated by our productivity but rather by our existence as sentient beings. Through gentle reminders, I help participants reaffirm that they are enough just as they are, separate from accomplishments or societal validations.#AnxietyCoachesPodcast #GuidedMeditation #LettingGoOfPressure #Enoughness #Mindfulness #StressRelief #MentalHealth #SelfCare #InnerPeace #AnxietyRelief #BeEnough #PeaceAndCalm #SelfCompassion #WellnessJourney #MeditationPractice #CalmYourMind #ReleaseStress #FindYourCalm #DailyMeditation #MindfulLiving #EmotionalWellness #HealingJourney #SelfLove #PresenceNotPerfection #DigitalDetox #UnwindAndRelax #BeyondAnxiety #PodcastForWellness #HealthAndHappiness #InnerStrength #BePresent #GentleReminder #FreedomFromPressure #AnxietySupport #MindOverMatter #BreatheAndBe #RestInEnoughness #WorthinessJourney #HumanBeingNotHumanDoing #GinaRyan #ACPSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

You say you want freedom. But are you really ready for it? This week, Kris kicks off the first of seven essential transitions every successful woman must navigate when she knows it's time for something new. It starts with a brutally honest question: Is your business ready to run without you? And are you ready to let it? In this episode, Kris unpacks what readiness really means—not just logistically, but emotionally. Because saying you're done and being done are two very different things. Here's what we explore: The trap of being needed—and why it's so hard to let go How your team might be holding you back (even if they mean well) Why control feels safer than it really is And how to know if you're truly ready for what's next This isn't about stepping down. It's about stepping into a new version of you. And readiness is just the beginning. Contact Information and Recommended Resources Wanna know if your business is ready to run without you?

In the second installment of the “Summertime Stories” series, Pastor Doug Musso teaches how we can let go of unforgiveness and live the life God has for us as we embrace forgiveness.

We are half-way through the year! In this episode we talk about ways to reset, release emotional weight, reclaim your energy, and realign with your higher path.⏱️ Timestamps:00:00 – Introduction and Mouse Troubles01:51 – Year of Purification03:40 – Releasing the Past04:16 – Church Experiences and Lessons08:51 – Letting Go of Expired Patterns11:09 – Blessing and Transforming Energy16:50 – Closing Doors and Moving Forward19:29 – Healing and Final Thoughts

Every person has either hurt someone in their life or has been hurt by someone. For true reconciliation to occur, we must look to the example Christ set on the cross, exemplifying forgiveness and humility. In the parable of the two sons, the younger son greatly disrespects his father and runs off into reckless living. Even though this is a great offence, it ends in a great reconciliation because of true repentance and forgiveness.Verses:Luke 15:11-32Luke 15:17-19Proverbs 21:2Luke 15:20-24Matthew 5:38Matthew 5:39-41Ephesians 4:31-32

Life often feels like a carefully planned play, where we prepare, strategize, and expect things to unfold according to our vision. Yet, just as a quarterback can call an audible and change the play at the last second, God sometimes redirects our lives in ways we never anticipated. My own journey as a planner—both in my career as a fire chief and in my personal life—was upended when my wife Deanna went home to be with the Lord. All my meticulous plans were suddenly irrelevant, and I was left to wrestle with the reality of whether I truly trusted God with all my heart, or if I had been relying on my own understanding all along.Proverbs 3:5-6 became a lifeline: “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and do not depend on your own understanding. Seek his will in all you do, and he will show you which path to take.” These words are simple, but their depth is profound. It's easy to say we trust God, but when life's foundation is shaken, we discover the areas we've kept for ourselves, the places where we've asked God to bless our plans rather than seeking His will first. True faith means surrendering every area—family, work, finances, relationships, even our very purpose—to God's direction, making Him the center of our lives rather than just another part.A God-centered life is not about the absence of suffering or loss, but about trusting that God's purposes will prevail, even when we don't understand. We are called to seek Him in all things: through prayer, through the counsel of the Holy Spirit and the community of believers, and through obedience to His Word. God's will is not a mystery reserved for the few; it is revealed as we humble ourselves, relinquish control, and walk in daily dependence on Him. Even in our pain and confusion, God is working all things together for good, drawing us and others closer to Himself.Ultimately, our lives are not about our own achievements or plans, but about glorifying God, growing in Christ, and serving others. The gospel—the good news of Jesus' death and resurrection—is the centerpiece of God's plan, the ultimate expression of His love and purpose for us. We are invited to trust Him fully, to let go of the exhausting burden of trying to be in control, and to rest in the assurance that He is the perfect planner, guiding us every step of the way.

In this special episode, Gresham Harkless shares a deeply introspective reflection on a recent transformative experience he had during a float therapy session, which unexpectedly brought him a strong sense of spiritual and emotional release.    He talks about a powerful feeling of release, both mentally and physically, as if he had been carrying an invisible weight for years and was finally able to set it down.   Gresham recognizes that the moment fit naturally into his broader journey of personal growth and health, especially considering past difficulties with things like blood sugar regulation and the burden of striving for perfection in his decisions.   He emphasizes how entrepreneurs, including himself, often strive to control every detail, but moments like this serve as a reminder that surrender and acceptance can be just as powerful.    Furthermore, he's reflecting on what the experience taught him and looking for ways to bring those lessons into his daily life and work, focusing on releasing the pressure to be perfect and learning to trust the journey as it unfolds.

SHOW NOTES: On this show…we're asking: What if your setback isn't the end of the road, but a setup for something greater? Too often, we treat failure like a stop sign—something to fear, avoid, or be ashamed of. But what if it's actually a signpost pointing us toward a better path, one we couldn't have seen without the detour? This week, we're flipping the script on disappointment and getting curious about the hidden wisdom in rejection, reroutes, and redirections. Think about a time when something didn't go your way—and now you're secretly (or loudly) grateful. That job you didn't get, the relationship that fizzled, the opportunity that slipped through your fingers…maybe that wasn't a failure, but a filter. We'll explore the difference between giving up and giving in, and how to know when you're resisting growth or simply being rerouted to a better destination. Let's dive in! We'll start by unpacking a few key terms and ideas that will help frame the rest of our conversation. Setback – A setback is typically defined as an interruption in progress—a problem or delay that keeps you from moving forward as planned. It's that moment when things don't go according to script and you feel like you've hit a wall. Most of us interpret a setback as failure, rejection, or a signal to give up. But what if that interruption is really a signal to pause, recalibrate, or shift direction? Setup – When we say a “setup,” we're talking about a reframing of perspective. Instead of viewing the problem as a block, we start to see it as a preparation—a moment meant to teach us, shape us, or even protect us from something we can't yet see. A setup can feel frustrating in real time, but it's often that pivot point we later recognize as essential. Giving Up vs. Giving In – These two sound similar but have very different meanings. Giving up means you stop trying—throw in the towel, close the book, walk away from the possibility. Giving in, however, is a more nuanced choice. It means you adjust. You yield to a new reality or modify the plan—not because you're weak, but because you're willing to grow. It's not quitting the goal; it's choosing a wiser way forward. Reframing Failure – This is where the mindset shift begins. Instead of labeling failure as the end, we see it as a necessary part of success. Many people we admire failed multiple times before finding their true direction. Reframing means we no longer fear failure—we learn from it. We use it. By grounding ourselves in these definitions, we give ourselves the freedom to move through life's plot twists with a bit more grace—and maybe even a little optimism. The Importance of Letting Go of Control The Value of 'No' How to Deal with Disappointment CHALLENGE: Stop labeling your setbacks as stop signs and start seeing them as scenic detours—opportunities to learn, grow, and arrive even more prepared. Trade the urge to give up for the courage to give in—to adapt, realign, and continue your journey with wisdom and grace. I Know YOU Can Do It!

This episode of The Kriya Yoga Podcast, When You Know Samadhi explores the philosophical and practical aspects of meditation within the framework of Kriya Yoga and the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali. The main topics include: The Purpose of Meditation Meditation is presented not as a relaxation technique but as a means to access one's true, timeless essence. The goal is the cessation of mental fluctuations to recognize the stillness and fullness at the core of being. Commitment to Practice The importance of long-term dedication is emphasized. Students are encouraged to remain engaged with the practices over time, as deep realization requires persistent application rather than brief exposure. Letting Go of the Ego True yoga involves dissolving the ego—the "personage" that clings to identity and personality. The path is one of surrender and relinquishment of attachments to fully experience spiritual freedom. Outer and Inner Limbs of Yoga The essay delineates between the outer practices (yamas, niyamas, asana, pranayama, pratyahara) and the inner practices (dharana, dhyana, samadhi). Mastery of the outer limbs is seen as foundational for accessing the inner experiences. The Mechanics of Meditation Meditation (dhyana) is defined as uninterrupted focus on a single object. This focus must be maintained for 12 breaths to be considered meditation, and 144 breaths to reach samadhi. These thresholds offer a concrete structure for understanding meditative depth. Modern Distractions and Spiritual Focus The essay criticizes modern distractions like social media and “spiritual doom scrolling.” Instead, it advocates for focused, authentic engagement with traditional texts and practices to cultivate concentration and spiritual discipline. Spiritual Transformation and Evolution Spiritual growth is described as a transformation akin to evolution—from human to divine being (deva). This requires pouring the energy and habits of the old self into a new, higher mode of being. One-Pointedness and Daily Practice One-pointed focus (ekagrata) is vital not only in meditation but in daily activities. Practicing concentrated awareness throughout life enhances the capacity for deeper meditation.

Why am I here? Why do I have so many negative thoughts?Learning to question the root of negative thoughts and ask if they're trueHow to separate yourself from the thoughts you haveThoughts don't control us, beliefs do, so thoughts don't affect us unless we believe them to be trueThoughts are neutral observations, thinking is judgment about thoughtsThe real root of suffering and how to shift it- is this true? Is this useful?Suffering is resistance to reality What is more important… being right or being at peace?The idea of letting go and surrendering is present in so many traditions around the world Attachments as the roots of suffering and ways to practice letting go throughout the day in small waysWe are not our thoughts… we are the space between.

Their situation is not unique; many people experience similar feelings as they navigate their anxiety journey. I delve into the importance of trusting oneself, particularly in moments where decision-making feels paralyzing and anxiety seems insurmountable.Starting with the listener's expression of frustration—waking up feeling exhausted and anxious, despite attempts to find calm through meditation—I break down the message into manageable pieces. I underscore that a tough day, especially one fueled by a lack of restful sleep, is a reality many face. Instead of battling the day's challenges, I encourage embracing them, acknowledging fatigue while allowing anxiety to accompany us without letting it define our day.As the listener grapples with racing thoughts about the future, I draw attention to the futility of trying to force these thoughts away. It's more productive to foster curiosity about them and redirect focus to the present moment. By practicing mindfulness—whether through a simple breath or by engaging with our surroundings—we can ground ourselves in the now, freeing ourselves from the cyclic worry that anxiety often brings.#AnxietySupport, #SelfTrust, #Mindfulness, #StressRelief, #MentalWellness, #CopingSkills, #AnxietyHelp, #MindfulLiving, #PresentMoment, #EmotionalHealth, #PersonalGrowth, #InnerPeace, #HealingJourney, #SelfCare, #AnxietyRecovery, #Meditation, #Breathwork, #CognitiveBehavioralTherapy, #AcceptanceCommitmentTherapy, #WellbeingJourney, #AnxietyFree, #EmotionalRegulation, #OvercomingAnxiety, #AnxietyAwareness, #MentalHealthMatters #GinaRyan #ACP #AnxietyCoachesPodcastSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
