Podcasts about loving life

In this episode, Britten introduces a new series called Living Emergence.  Living Emergence is a subjective question. Each episode in the series will feature a conversation on what it feels like to be living emergence.  The guest for the inaugural conversation in the series is Natasha Levinger, Britten's dear friend, healer, mentor, and co-host on Crystal Ballers.  Here we explore a key teaching of intuitive healing, which is to be "in present time." Natasha Levinger is a therapeutic intuitive, energy healer, and author of the book, Healing Your Inner Child: Reparenting Yourself for a More Secure and Loving Life. She spends much of her time deep diving into all aspects of spiritual and emotional healing in the search to uncover patterns that stop us from being all that we are. Sharing those discoveries with others to help them feel free and fulfilled is her passion and life's work.  Follow Natasha on Instagram and TikTok.

Host: Dave QuakOverview: In this solo episode of Sunburnt Souls, Dave Quak explores the role of AI chatbots, like Wysa, in supporting mental wellbeing, particularly from a Christian perspective. He examines their benefits, limitations, and ethical considerations, drawing on Christian thinkers to provide a balanced view on integrating AI into faith and mental health practices.Key Points:Introduction to AI Chatbots:AI chatbots mimic conversations with therapists or friends, using cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) techniques.In Australia, long waitlists for mental health services (months for psychologists, up to 8 months for psychiatrists) make AI a potential stopgap for immediate support.Testing Wysa:Dave tests Wysa, an anonymous chatbot, with hypothetical scenarios (e.g., feeling angry after a fight).Wysa responds empathetically, asking reflective questions like, “What triggered this anger?” or “How could you communicate better?”It handles absurd inputs (e.g., “I have skiddies and I'm embarrassed”) without judgment but flags harmful statements appropriately.Pros of AI Chatbots:24/7 Support: Accessible anytime, ideal for late-night struggles.Judgment-Free: Safe space to share without fear of personal criticism.CBT-Based: Offers evidence-based tools for anxiety, depression, and stress.Privacy: Anonymous and convenient, fostering emotional awareness.Limitations:No Spiritual Depth: Lacks Christian revelation or Holy Spirit guidance.No Human Empathy: Mimics but doesn't feel emotions.Risk of Over-Reliance: Could become a crutch, diverting users from seeking God.Christian Perspectives on AI:Akos Balogh (The Gospel Coalition): Advocates cautious engagement; AI is useful but ethically risky, reflecting human biases. Avoid outsourcing moral or spiritual decisions.Dustin Ryan (Christ Over All): Sees AI as a tool for the Great Commission, aiding Bible translation and evangelism, but warns of biased outputs.Kate Lucky: Notes AI's formative influence, shaping thinking and expectations of instant spiritual growth. Stay anchored in Christ-centered practices.Biblical View:CONNECT Follow Sunburnt Souls for raw stories of faith, mental health, and hope:

I have spent countless years following an intuition somewhere deeply embedded within me that ushered me forward. My path was messy, unclear, and quite troubled. It was this way because my inner world was messy, unclear, and troubled. Through trial and error and a well of suffering, angst, and self-pity, I had a few wake-up calls that brought me out of my victimization and into conscious choiceful living.
I was deeply humbled in the darkest of my days. I can tell you about all of the education I have received, the trainings, the certifications, the programs, the retreats, and the therapy but what has shifted my life's direction is my desire.
My true desire to be a better person, a better lover, and a kinder and more responsible human within the global ecosystem.
That is what finally brought about change. Once I saw the suffering I was perpetuating within myself, and its effect on those closest to me I dove into "The Work" in the last several years it has been my guiding light.

In this episode of the show, Raj, Baldy, Binksy, Jamie and Stu look back at week 4 of IPL 2025, which saw a host of close matches, a few low scores, highlights from Jos Buttler, Mitchell Starc, Yuzvendra Chahal, a debut for 14-year-old Vaibhav Suryavanshi and plenty more. We start this week by talking about the remarkable debut of Vaibhav Suryavanshi for the Rajasthan Royals. There's talk about what we were doing at 14 and the confidence of youth, but also about what a missed opportunity this week was for RR to get themselves back into the tournament now that Yashasvi Jaiswal is firing. From there, we bounce around from the chances of the Mumbai Indians to go on a winning streak, CSK doubts, super overs and close games, Mitchell Starc yorkers and RCB's Josh Hazlewood tactics. There's also praise for Jos Buttler and the way he's adjusted to life at the Gujarat Titans, excitement from the Auckland studio about wrist-spinners and Yuzvendra Chahal in particular, before we start yelling at clouds about robot dogs, obscure applications of the laws of cricket involving Heinrich Klaasen's wicketkeeping gloves and we update our tournament winner predictions as the tournament passes the halfway mark.

In this latest episode of the Obi One Podcast, John Obi Mikel reunites with his former Nigeria team-mate and a man he considers his ‘little brother': Victor Osimhen. Things have changed dramatically for the 2023 African Footballer of the Year since we last caught up with him having swapped Napoli for Galatasaray. Back scoring goals, and more importantly, enjoying his football again, Osimhen opens up on life in Turkey, why he's so grateful to Gala's fanatical support and outlines his ambitions for the future. Osimhen also reflects on his time at Napoli, the lessons he learned under boss Luciano Spalletti and why former team-mate Khvicha Kvaratskhelia is ready to propel PSG to European glory. ttps://www.instagram.com/obionepodcast?igsh=MWNzbHVocHdzeWZwdA== https://x.com/obionepodcast?s=21 https://www.facebook.com/share/1AJ7ZPB4Cp/?mibextid=wwXIfr Learn more about your ad choices.
