Podcasts about levels

According to investigative science journalist Gary Taubes, much of what we “know” about nutrition is built on weak evidence, bad assumptions, and decades of groupthink. In this episode of A Whole New Level, Taubes joins Mike Haney to examine how nutrition science went off the rails—and why he remains convinced the carbohydrate–insulin model still offers the most coherent explanation for obesity.Taubes explains how observational studies became policy, why randomized trials are often ignored, and why questioning the calorie-balance model remains controversial despite mounting contradictions. The conversation is less about winning an argument and more about how science should actually work—especially when public health is at stake.⁠Sign Up to Get Your Free Ultimate Guide to Glucose: ⁠⁠https://levels.link/wnl⁠⁠⁠

We're kicking off the 2026 podcast episodes with this insight to the 6 different levels of thinking.   When we set goals, most of us consider just the ONE level: what BEHAVIOURS do I need to change?   This is important, but it's not the only level we need to consider if we want more rapid and permanent change.   I first came across the 6 Logical Levels when I was stydying for my NLP practioners course, and have used it regularly since then.   In this short episode I will walk you through all 6 levels - environment, behaviours, capabilities, beliefs & values, identity and purpose - and explain how you can use it to expand your thinking when you're considering a new goal or change.   In the introduction I also share the reason I believe this podcast is still going - 5 years after the first episode back in January 2021 - and my approach to some of the solo episodes I have produced in that time (including this one!)   Whatever your goals are for the next 12 months, I wish you success, motivation and all the resilience you need to get back on track when you face the inevitable challenges along the way.   Thank you for listening to A Bit Of A Boost!

Moses 1 is the missing preface to the Old Testament which reveals three important truths.(07:03) We are God's children, and have infinite worth and potential.(08:45) The name of God. The Old Testament was originally written in Hebrew and many words can have various interpretations.(12:06) Divine investiture of authority allows the Son to have the power to speak as if he is the Father.(18:11) The creation story is not about how. It's about why. Man is nothing and yet God wants to give us everything He has.(21:18) The historical timeframe of Moses 1.(23:54) Satan's name only appears in the Bible 13 times. His presence in the Book of Moses is significant.(27:43) The difference between the glory of God and the glory of the world.(33:50) We can cast out Satan and control darkness by inviting light.(35:39) Moses 1 ends with the command to show the words only to those that believe. Levels of exoteric and esoteric are in scriptural texts.(39:44) The book of Abraham originated with Egyptian papyri that Joseph Smith translated. Fire destroyed most of the original scrolls and only small fragments remain. These fragments, called JSP I-XI, contain burial texts called The Book of Breathings.(45:36) The relationship between the remaining fragments and the text of the Book of Abraham is not fully understood.(47:28) Some counter-arguments to criticisms of the Book of Abraham include the missing text theory, the catalyst theory, and the Jewish redaction theory.(55:23) The JSP I-XI fragments date to the 2nd century BC, not 1900 BC when Abraham lived. The rolls were likely copies of copies.(1:01:08) In the Book of Abraham, the greatness of the Messiah is found in the symbolism of the cosmos and stars.(1:10:37) Abraham learns about the pre-earth life.(1:11:54) Joseph's introduction to the Hebrew language likely influenced some of the words found in Abraham. → For more of Bryce Dunford’s podcast classes, click here. → Enroll in Institute → YouTube → Apple Podcasts → Spotify → Amazon Music → Facebook The post Ep 353 | Moses 1; Abraham 3, Come Follow Me 2026 (January 5-11) appeared first on LDS Scripture Teachings.

Why does eating sometimes feel distant, foggy, or unreal? Why do meals happen on autopilot, with little connection to hunger, fullness, or satisfaction? In this solo episode, Dr. Marianne Miller explores the often overlooked role of dissociation in eating disorders, especially when trauma and nervous system overwhelm are present. Many people experience eating as disconnected or numb, yet rarely receive language or support that explains why this happens. This episode breaks down how dissociation functions as a survival response, not a failure of recovery. Dr. Marianne explains how trauma, chronic stress, and loss of bodily autonomy can shape the nervous system and disrupt interoceptive awareness, making it difficult to sense hunger, fullness, and internal cues. Listeners will learn how dissociation connects to common eating disorder patterns such as restriction, binge eating, and rigid routines. Rather than viewing these behaviors as resistance or lack of motivation, this episode reframes them as nervous system strategies designed to manage overwhelm and threat. Dr. Marianne also centers neurodivergent experiences, including sensory processing differences and shutdown responses that often get missed in traditional eating disorder treatment. She explains why pressure-based approaches frequently fail neurodivergent people and why safety, accommodation, and choice are essential when eating feels unreal. This episode offers a trauma informed, neurodivergent affirming perspective on recovery, emphasizing that healing does not come from forcing embodiment. Instead, recovery unfolds when the nervous system learns that eating can be safe again. In this episode, you will hear about: Dissociation and eating disorders Trauma and nervous system responses around food Why eating can feel unreal or disconnected Interoception and disrupted hunger and fullness cues Neurodivergence, sensory overwhelm, and eating challenges Why traditional eating disorder treatment often misses dissociation What actually supports recovery when eating feels unreal Midway through the episode, Dr. Marianne shares more about her self-paced ARFID and Selective Eating course, designed for people whose eating struggles are shaped by sensory differences, trauma, and nervous system needs.

Amazon's (AMZN) late October earnings sent the Mag 7 stock to new all-time highs before falling 10% from that record. Shares now trade just over flat year-over-year, and as Rick Ducat points out, faces a key resistance level near the end of 2025. He points out the key bearish and bullish trends to watch and pairs them with Amazon's options activity. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

This episode picks up right where part one leaves off as I dive into more of your thoughtful, honest questions in the second-part of this year-end Q&A. What happens when hormone therapy doesn't seem to be working the way you expected? And how do you know if your dose is actually doing what you need it to do? I answer questions about achy joints, stubborn symptoms, cortisol replacement, thyroid interactions, and why some delivery methods work beautifully for one person and fail another. Why do absorption issues happen? What does "optimal" really mean when it comes to hormone levels? And when is more not actually better? We also talk about real-world frustrations—irregular cycles, weight changes, hair loss, breast tenderness, and the overwhelm that can come with trying to figure all of this out. If you've ever wondered whether you're doing the right thing for your body, this episode is for you! In this episode, we uncover: How to know if your hormone dose is actually providing protective benefits. Why cortisol, stress, and thyroid medications complicate hormone balance. What causes poor absorption with patches, creams, or injections. How to spot signs of too much or too little estrogen. Why individualized testing and symptom tracking truly matter.

Send us a textHenry Cox is a longtime legal professional who now works mainly as a neutral mediator, arbitrator, and hearing officer, while also writing fiction. Over the years, his work has shifted from active litigation to helping parties resolve disputes outside the courtroom. Over his career, Henry Cox practiced law in dozens of states, handled complex civil and civil rights cases, and represented everyone from local governments to major companies. He also argued appeals in higher courts and later played a key role in early training and adoption of mediation and arbitration programs. Along the way, he moved through government work, in-house corporate roles, large firms, and solo practice before focusing fully on neutral work. In this episode, he talks about how the legal profession has changed, the difference between practicing law and running the business side of it, and why most lawyers never become trial lawyers. He also shares how his interest in research and storytelling led him to write novels alongside his legal work. Listeners should tune in to hear a clear, honest look at what a long legal career can really look like, including its tradeoffs and surprises. The conversation offers practical perspective on career paths in law, problem-solving skills, and how those skills can carry into completely different creative work.Henry Coxhttps://www.henry-cox.com/  Louis Goodman www.louisgoodman.comhttps://www.lovethylawyer.com/510.582.9090Music: Joel Katz, Seaside Recording, MauiTech: Bryan Matheson, Skyline Studios, OaklandAudiograms: Paul Robert louis@lovethylawyer.com

Wall Street is near record levels on a day it closes early.

A new Intermountain Health study presented at the American Heart Association's 2025 Scientific Sessions found that adults with heart disease who optimized their vitamin D levels cut their risk of another heart attack by 52% Most participants began the trial with low vitamin D levels, showing that deficiency is common in people with cardiovascular disease and silently increases the risk of recurring heart problems More than half of the patients needed over 5,000 IU of vitamin D3 daily — six times the FDA's recommended intake — to reach protective blood levels between 40 and 80 ng/mL Vitamin D acts as a hormone that helps lower inflammation, maintain proper calcium balance, improve blood vessel function, and reduce oxidative stress — all key to preventing heart damage Regular testing, personalized dosing, sunlight exposure, and daily exercise are simple, measurable ways to restore vitamin D, strengthen your heart, and reduce your risk of another cardiac event

In this episode of Business Coaching Secrets, Karl Bryan and Rode Dog dive into the psychology behind discounting, why most coaches and business owners sabotage their own margins, and the mindset shifts for building a sustainable, high-performing coaching practice. With the holiday season upon us, Karl explores the deeper layers of wealth—time, relationships, health, and purpose—while sharing actionable strategies for tackling the new year, leveraging focus, and reframing "the grind." From implementation hacks to heartfelt moments, this episode strikes the perfect balance of tactical and Zen. Key Topics Covered The Psychology and Strategy of Discounting Karl explains why most business owners resort to discounting, the hidden costs, and the impact on profitability. He unpacks the numbers—offering a 10% discount means you must sell 33% more just to break even. Discussion of segmenting discount offers, using time-limited deals, and alternative approaches like adding value or crafting market-dominating positions (MDP) to escape commoditization. Building a Market-Dominating Position Real-world examples like web-watch in daycares and "no results, no fee" for marketing firms show how to solve the biggest problem for clients without competing on price. Mindset: The 'Bike Trail' Metaphor The struggle and progression of business is compared to riding an uphill bike trail: it feels brutal until "you" change. The fundamentals remain, but your experience and efficiency grow. Fundamentals, incremental improvement, and compounding gains over time are highlighted as keys to ease rather than endless grind. Levels of Wealth and the Holiday Season Karl reframes wealth as not just money but also time, relationships, health, and purpose. Discussion on balancing ambition with presence, focusing on what matters, and prioritizing personal fulfillment during hectic seasons. Zen and The Moment of Presence Drawing inspiration from the philosopher Seneca and sharing personal stories and losses, Karl emphasizes living in the present moment, fueling gratitude, and managing stress. Sales vs. Coaching Skills Most coaches excel at one and struggle at the other. Karl breaks down why consistent small improvements—especially in your weak area—compound massively across the year. Business Models and Scalability Comparison of Siegfried & Roy vs. Blue Man Group in Vegas: choosing a scalable model over one dependent on a key individual. Notable Quotes "The bike trail doesn't change—you do." "If you're discounting by 10%, you better be ready to sell 33% more just to break even." "People get addicted to discounts. They don't get addicted to free." "Depression lives in the past, anxiety is the future—the solution is to stay in the present." "It's not the strategy, tool, or tactic; it's the level of thinking that separates great coaches." Actionable Takeaways Be Relentlessly Focused Laser-like focus is consistently the defining trait of high-level business founders. In 2026, resolve to hone your focus and stay on your chosen path. Add Value First, Discount Last Before offering discounts, create value in the form of market-dominating positions. Stand out by solving bigger problems for your ideal client. Use 'Buy One Get One Free' to Outperform Standard Discounts Test three discount strategies—% off, two-for-one, BOGO—but expect "buy one, get one free" to psychologically and financially outperform. Incremental Improvement Compounds Exponentially Aim for 1% daily improvement in sales or coaching for 365 days—by year's end, you could be 37x better. Live in the Present Practice gratitude, presence, and purposeful moments. Especially during the holiday season, invest your time where love and meaning are highest. Design Scalability into Your Business Model Think beyond yourself: can your offering operate without you present? Avoid "wrestling the tigers"—create systems others can run. Strategic Discounting Only Segment your offers, use time limitations, and always know your profit margins before reducing prices.

George Tsilis takes investors through a slew of economic data that hit markets Friday morning. On consumer sentiment, he notes a year-over-year decline, but a range in recent months shows stabilization. Core PCE and existing home sales both ticked higher, prints George Tsilis says are relevant for the Fed's interest rate cutting path. On the international front, the Bank of Japan raised interest rates to the highest level since 1995, something George believes U.S. investors should watch. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.
