Day 2 features a loving-kindness affirmation practice—a single phrase to steady the mind and soften self-criticism. Inspired by the Gita's teaching of friendliness and compassion toward all beings and informed by modern RCT reviews of loving-kindness interventions. ABOUT THIS WEEK'S LOVING-KINDNESS JOURNEY Welcome to Loving-Kindness Meditation: A Daily Heart-Opening Series—a 7-day journey into the ancient practice of cultivating a steady, compassionate heart. This isn't "be positive" meditation, and it isn't personality-based inspiration. It's a classical inner training—rooted in timeless yogic reflections on maitrī (friendliness), compassion, joy, and equanimity—so your mind becomes clearer, your nervous system steadier, and your relationships more spacious. Across this week, you'll build a simple, repeatable heart practice using one focused technique each day: a loving-kindness visualization, a single phrase of kindness, calming breathwork, a heart-opening mudra, a heart-center (4th chakra) nurture practice, a layered "heart stack" you can use anytime, and a gentle weekly review to embody what you've learned. Come as you are—guarded, tender, hopeful, tired, or open. Loving-kindness doesn't require a perfect mood. It only asks for a sincere return. In just a few minutes each day, you'll practice opening the heart with steadiness—so compassion becomes less of an idea and more of a lived inner home. This is day 2 of a 7-day meditation series, "Loving-Kindness Meditation: A Daily Heart-Opening Series"  episodes 3465-3471. THIS WEEK'S CHALLENGE - "META-MICRO MISSION" Each day, send one tiny ripple of kindness: silently offer a loving-kindness phrase to yourself, a neutral person, and a difficult moment (not necessarily a difficult person). Keep it light—3 breaths each— and track your streak with a simple checkmark. THIS WEEK'S MEDITATION JOURNEY  Day 1:  Compassion Visualization Day 2:  Affirmation: "My heart is open and safe." Day 3:  Heart Coherent Breath: Inhale for 5, Exhale for 5, Repeat for 10 rounds. (Option: inhale "soften, exhale "kindness.") Day 4:  Lotus mudra for opening your heart Day 5:  Fourth chakra for love and gratitude Day 6:  Loving-Kindness Flow meditation, combining the week's techniques Day 7:  Weekly review meditation and closure SHARE YOUR MEDITATION JOURNEY WITH YOUR FELLOW MEDITATORS Let's connect and inspire each other!

In this episode of The Addicted Mind, Duane speaks with Dr. Nima Rahmani, a former chiropractor turned emotional health educator. Dr. Nima shares his profound journey from "success on paper" to a total relational breakdown that forced him to confront his own deep-seated patterns of anxious attachment and fawning.They dive deep into the concept of becoming "trigger-proof," the hidden cost of people-pleasing, and why "shame alchemization" is the secret to a truly authentic life. Whether you are struggling with addiction, burnout, or toxic relationship cycles, this episode offers a roadmap for moving from unconscious reactivity to conscious leadership.Key Topics & Chapters[01:32] The Wake-Up Call: Dr. Nima discusses how a crisis in his personal life and a brush with the legal system forced him to look past his professional success and address his defensive reactivity.[03:54] The Cost of Fawning: A breakdown of the "Fawn" response—how suppressing your truth to appease others creates a "bottomless pit" of resentment and physical inflammation.[10:14] Defining the Fawn Response: Dr. Nima provides a powerful analogy of how children learn to appease "predators" (caregivers) to survive, and how that evolves into a destructive adult relationship strategy.[14:41] Somatic Impact: Exploring the link between unresolved emotional wounds, fawning, and chronic physical issues like autoimmune diseases and inflammation.[21:00] Loving the Shadow: Why true self-love isn't about liking your "best" parts, but about "unshaming" the parts of yourself you've tried to kill off or hide.[27:12] Success vs. Intimacy: Why high-achieving entrepreneurs often crush it in business but fail in relationships, and how the "push energy" of success can actually block emotional safety.[47:26] The Worthiness Inquiry: Dr. Nima shares a foundational question for listeners: "I am only worthy of love when..."[52:00] The Heartbeat Realization: A moving story about hearing his son's heartbeat and rediscovering the concept of inherent worthiness.Key Quotes"Shame alchemization is the secret to being a human... finding these embarrassing, unacceptable parts of us and really looking to understand them." — Dr. Nima Rahmani"Fawning is when you freeze a part of you in an interaction... you freeze your truth and then you perform niceness." — Dr. Nima Rahmani"One size fits all is not real. It's not real for baseball caps, and it's not real for recovery plans." — Dr. Nima Rahmani (Note: This is a callback to the theme of individualized healing)"The path to self-love is really about loving your shadow." — Dr. Nima RahmaniUnderstanding the Survival ResponsesTo better understand where "Fawning" fits into our biological safety system, it helps to see it alongside the more commonly known stress responses:Fight: Aggression and boundary-setting.Flight: Avoiding or escaping the threat.Freeze: Numbing out or becoming paralyzed.Fawn: Appeasing the threat to ensure safety.Resources MentionedThe Attachment Style Quiz: Discover if you are anxious, avoidant, or disorganized. [Link provided in bio/show notes]Recovery Demystified: Exploring "Quit Lit" and science-based recovery tools."Unshaming": The work of David Bedrick.About Dr. Nima RahmaniDr. Nima Rahmani is the founder of the Trigger-Proof methodology. He helps entrepreneurs and individuals heal attachment wounds to uplevel their capacity for love and leadership.Connect with Dr. Nima:Website:https://becometriggerproof.com/Instagram: @drnimaPrevious Interview With Dr. Nima RahmaniIf you live in California and are looking for counseling or therapy please check out Novus Mindful Life Counseling and Recovery CenterNovusMindfulLife.comWe want to hear from you.

Stradivarius violins, cellos, and guitars are among the most treasured musical instruments in the world. Crafted during the 17th and 18th centuries, the pieces are rare and invaluable. Something so precious deserves the utmost care. So, when a Stradivarius cello—worth more than $20 million—fell off a table during a photo shoot, it was truly shocking! Just as a Stradivarius must be handled carefully, so must our relationships. We’re to love others because Christ demonstrated His love toward us. In John 13:34, Jesus gave His disciples a command that requires careful attention: “A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another.” Why did Christ call it a new command? It was new because it was rooted in the way Jesus loved people. This new command to love wasn’t careless or casual but intentional, precious, and sacrificial. Loving this way would lead to discipleship, self-denial, and possibly even death for the disciples. This care for one another would be how they survived in a difficult and hostile world after Christ’s departure. And Jesus told them, “Everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another” (v. 35). Let’s carefully and sacrificially love others—reflecting Jesus’ precious and priceless love.

In this important conversation, I sit down with Cortney Donelson, author of Loving Them to Death, to talk about one of the most emotionally charged issues in our culture: love. What if the way culture defines love isn't actually loving? What if affirmation without truth is doing more harm than good? We unpack how "love" has been redefined to mean unconditional approval, why that definition falls short of the biblical standard, and how Christians are often pressured to compromise truth in order to appear compassionate. Cortney shares why untethering love from God's design doesn't rescue people — it enables destruction. We also discuss what it really looks like to love people well: speaking truth with courage, refusing emotional manipulation, and anchoring our compassion in the character of Christ. If you've ever been told you're unloving for holding to Scripture, this episode will equip you to think clearly and respond biblically.   Find Shanda www.shandafulbright.com Instagram & Facebook: @shandafulbright Email: hello@shandafulbright.com Free Resources: https://shandafulbright.com/links YouTube: http://bit.ly/ShandaYT2021 Store: www.Shandafulbright.com/shop

Jesus did not call people to admire Him. He called them to follow Him.In this episode of Kitchen Table Theology, Pastor Jeff Cranston and Tiffany walk through three clear marks of true discipleship. Many believers know the right words, attend church consistently, and affirm sound doctrine. Yet the deeper question remains: Are we truly living as followers of Christ?This conversation examines what Jesus meant when He said, “Follow Me,” and challenges listeners to consider whether their lives reflect obedience, transformation, and love.What We Discussed02:30 Following Jesus Is More Than Intellectual AgreementJesus' call to follow Him is not merely agreement with doctrine. It's a call to obedience, surrender, and life change. Discipleship involves transformation, not just information.03:15 #1 Abiding in God's WordAbiding means staying rooted in Scripture so that it shapes decisions, priorities, convictions, and worldview. Discipleship begins with ongoing dependence on God's truth.07:05 Bearing Spiritual Fruit as Evidence of a Living FaithAuthentic faith produces visible evidence, not spiritual performance or curated appearances.09:30 Fruit Grows Through Faithfulness, Not Speed Discipleship is described as a slow, steady process. Jesus does not demand instant fruit. He calls for faithfulness over time. Growth may be gradual, but it is real.11:10 Loving as Jesus LovesThe defining mark of Jesus' disciples is a love that goes beyond preference or affection.12:40 Love Our Enemies Rooted in Matthew 5:44, this call challenges believers to reflect Christ's character in difficult relationships.14:20 Love Is Action, Not Feeling Biblical love is not primarily emotional. It is active and intentional. It expresses itself through obedience, sacrifice, and Spirit-empowered service.16:00 Why Love Is the Visible Badge of Discipleship While doctrine matters deeply, love is the evidence the world recognizes most clearly. Christlike love becomes the visible marker of a true disciple.18:45 Direction, Not Perfection The episode closes with a reminder that discipleship is about direction, not flawlessness. Jesus meets His followers where they are and calls them forward in faithfulness.“Discipleship isn't about hustle. It's about faithfulness.” – Pastor Jeff Cranston

In today's episode, I feature a private coaching client Jenn, who shares her three-year journey to pregnancy while navigating a PCOS diagnosis. She recounts her frustrating experiences with conventional medicine, which often left her feeling dismissed and hopeless. After taking her health into her own hands and working with Nora, Jenn learned to understand her body, stopped treatments that were masking the root issues, and successfully conceived naturally. Her story is a powerful testament to self-advocacy. Episode Highlights: Meet Jenn, a dedicated teacher whose fertility journey took unexpected turns after coming off birth control. What started as a quest to start a family became a battle for answers after a rushed PCOS diagnosis and a series of medical frustrations. Determined to take charge of her health, Jenn dives into research, challenges her diagnosis, and begins exploring holistic and alternative care. Her search leads her to Nora, whose guidance helps uncover the truth about Jenn's body and a powerful shift in her fertility story. From heartbreak to healing, Jenn opens up about loss, resilience, and the life-changing moment she realized her body could do what she once thought it couldn't. Now in her third trimester, Jenn shares what pregnancy with PCOS really looks like, and the empowering mindset that's carried her through. Her journey is a reminder that reclaiming your health starts with self-advocacy, patience, and trust in your body's wisdom.

1. Virginia Politics & Redistricting Democrats in Virginia are moving quickly to enact policy changes after recent elections. The new Virginia congressional map heavily favors Democrats (projected 10D–1R), despite the state split being closer to 53% Democrat / 47% Republican. Comparisons to redistricting in Texas, California, and New England, arguing that both parties gerrymander but Virginia’s map is described as especially extreme. 2. Immigration Enforcement Virginia’s governor (referred to as Abigail Spanberger) cut cooperation with ICE. This policy could result in criminal undocumented immigrants being released into communities. 3. Discussion of Supreme Court Oral Arguments on Tariffs Detailed recounting of a Supreme Court case involving presidential authority to impose tariffs. Highlights: Roberts, Gorsuch, and Barrett expressed skepticism toward the administration’s position. Kavanaugh, Thomas, and Alito appeared more open to upholding the tariff authority. Predicts that Chief Justice Roberts may write a majority opinion to uphold tariff powers on institutional grounds. 4. The “Save America Act” House of Representatives passed the act with only one Democrat voting in favor. The act requires: Proof of U.S. citizenship to register to vote. Photo ID to vote. Presented as “common-sense” election integrity legislation. Describes a procedural strategy within existing Senate rules, not abolishing the filibuster. Would force Democrats to perform a talking filibuster (continuous floor speeches). Requires Republicans to maintain 50 senators physically present, possibly for days or weeks. Democrats aim to: Eliminate photo ID laws. Grant statehood to D.C. and Puerto Rico. Offer citizenship and voting rights to undocumented immigrants. Pack the Supreme Court. Voter ID and citizenship proof are extremely popular nationwide with broad bipartisan support. Republicans should force Democrats to publicly defend opposition during a talking filibuster.

Letting those patterns go changed everything. I went from dying to living almost overnight.Today, I help people who love truth more than their beliefs—people who want to serve with their life's work and walk their Hero's Journey—to deprogram the beast system from within and stop unconsciously feeding the forces that harm us.I host the King Hero interview series, where I spotlight leaders, entrepreneurs, movement makers, and lovers of freedom who are carving new paths in a world that desperately needs them. And I also share my own voice, insights, and stories through my new solo podcast, Beth of Fresh Air.

The post Is It Loving to Separate From a Sinning Christian? appeared first on Straight Truth Podcast.

On today's episode I chat with Keith and Courtney, cohosts of the podcast Tripping Over Love. Keith is licensed therapist and a Level 3 IFS Consultant, and Courtney is journalist and podcaster. They joined me to share their beautiful, messy love story. We dive into the courage it takes to start over, the "trauma" of the dating apps, and how they've used Internal Family Systems (IFS) and psychedelics to navigate the "breakups, breakdowns, and breakthroughs" of their relationship . We discuss: Starting relationships with truth instead of performance. Radical transparency — "starting with the ending" — as a foundation for trust. Why telling the truth early can save a relationship later. Loving someone while still grieving a past life. Speaking for parts instead of from them in moments of conflict. Finding the courage to try again after loss and heartbreak. Dating is messy: Getting honest about the "thrift store shopping" energy of dating apps. The difference between loving someone and being "in love." IFS as "four-wheel drive": Turning toward the model when relationships get stuck. How psychedelic-assisted journeys helped unlock grief — and create space to love again. Extended Interview At the end of our chat, I asked them each for one piece of advice for couples. This extended interviews is available for paid subscribers over on The One Inside Substack.  Connect with Keith and Courtney: Podcast: Tripping Over Love Substack About The One Inside I started this podcast to help spread IFS out into the world and make the model more accessible to everyone.

TBTC merch available now: tobethechurch.comAndrew watched his least favorite team win the Super Bowl — surrounded by die-hard fans of that team. What happened next surprised him.In this episode, the guys talk about rivalry, fandom, and what it revealed about something much deeper: how Christians should engage in a divided age. From sports to politics to hot-button cultural issues, it's easy to dehumanize the “other side” from behind a screen. But real, face-to-face relationships change things.How do we hold firm convictions while still loving real people? What does it look like to be full of both grace and truth? And why is winning people more important than winning arguments?Ask your questions by emailing podcast@tobethechurch.com

Brian From reflects on the legacy of James Van Der Beek and the sobering revelations surrounding Jeffrey Epstein, asking whether the so-called “culture wars” are masking deeper moral and spiritual realities. Drawing from Russell Moore’s analysis and the book of Philippians, Brian challenges listeners to move beyond outrage and partisanship toward a life anchored in Christ. The episode closes with a powerful reminder that true spiritual growth is measured not by knowledge or tribal loyalty, but by living for Christ and loving others with the humility of Jesus Himself.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this reflective and refreshingly honest episode of Quick Book Reviews, Philippa is joined by well-known book influencer and paramedic Jules Swain for a conversation that goes far beyond algorithms, star ratings, and reading targets.What begins as a discussion about social media platforms — from X and Instagram to BookTok — quickly becomes a deeper exploration of burnout, pressure, and reclaiming reading as a joy rather than a performance.Together, Philippa and Jules talk about:Stepping back from social media and why it can be healthyThe pressure to post, review, and read “enough” booksWhy it's okay to DNF a book — and stop feeling guiltyStar ratings, negative reviews, and whether every book needs an opinionBookTok hype, genre oversaturation, and discovering fantasy unexpectedlyPhysical books vs e-readers vs audiobooksBuilding real-life book communities and local book clubsReading as escapism after emotionally demanding workJules also shares her most-loved books, her perfect reading day, thoughts on Goodreads vs StoryGraph, and settles the all-important biscuit debate (custard creams, for the record).A calming, thoughtful episode for anyone who has ever felt overwhelmed by bookish noise — and a reminder that reading is allowed to be slow, personal, and joyful.Follow Quick Book Reviews for book recommendations, author interviews, and weekly podcast episodes.

In this episode, Dr. Richard Caldwell and host Dr. Josh Philpot address the difficult biblical instruction regarding separation from professing believers who live in unrepentant sin. They explore key passages such as 2 Thessalonians 3 and 1 Corinthians 5, discussing how to apply these commands to long-term friendships and family dynamics. Dr. Caldwell clarifies that while Christians must not withdraw from the world, they cannot maintain casual fellowship with a "so-called brother" who walks in open rebellion. The discussion provides practical wisdom on handling holiday gatherings with sinful family members and dealing with those who leave the church in anger. Ultimately, the goal of this separation is not punitive but restorative, aiming to shame the sinner into repentance while maintaining the purity of the church.

For many married couples, when one partner is diagnosed with dementia, there's often no question that the other will become the caregiver. It's the hard part of the "for better or for worse" marriage vow.
