Podcasts about methods

In this episode of Communicable, Emily McDonald and Josh Davis are joined by Roger Lewis (USA) and Ian Marschner (Australia) to compare and contrast Bayesian and frequentist statistical approaches. The panel discusses the fundamental principles of both methods, common misconceptions, and the extent to which they are often more similar than many realise. Together, they explore their use in clinical trial design, analysis, and reporting, including adaptive trials and sequential learning. Additional topics include sample size misconceptions, regulatory versus clinical thresholds, and the challenges of interpreting post hoc reanalyses of negative trials.This episode was edited by Kathryn Hostettler and the executive producer of Communicable is Angela Huttner.  Further reading:Berry SM, et al.

This week I am taking advantage of the new traffic patterns around the waterfront here in town to capture a stream of consciousness about my new addition to EMDR. My therapist recommend a combination of EMDR and Ketamine and so far this week it seems to have a synergistic effect on my mood and my dreams/sleep quality! Set, setting, and intention make a world of difference compared to when I used to do K back a couple of years ago. I talk a bit about the pharmacology of it and also a bit about a funny memory from Forecastle since I was at the place where it happened; it wasn't funny at the time but looking back on it it's funny now!Support the show

(see full author list at the end) PAPER LINK About a year ago, METR showed that the length of tasks frontier models can reliably complete doubles every few months. A related safety-relevant question is this: what length of tasks can models complete without any chain of thought (CoT)? If models can do extensive reasoning without outputting any CoT, it would have implications for safety. Developers and deployment-time monitors couldn't easily understand models' motivations and catch dangerous planning. Models that reason substantially without a CoT might also drift further from human patterns of thought, since their reasoning is no longer constrained by text in the pretraining prior. As a result, they would be harder to understand and might be more likely to scheme. Extending Ryan Greenblatt's research, we investigate this by measuring models' ability to complete tasks without any CoT on a suite of 43 benchmarks spanning different domains. We compare AI reasoning ability to humans using the estimated 50% time horizon (TH)---the typical time taken for a human to perform a task that the LLM performs with 50% success rate. We find that frontier models like GPT-5.5 answer questions that take humans roughly three minutes with 50% reliability, and [...] ---Outline:(02:20) Methods(04:59) Results(06:47) FAQ(08:21) Conclusion --- First published: June 10th, 2026 Source: https://www.lesswrong.com/posts/SieLowPgNgRSPGhFw/estimating-no-cot-task-completion-time-horizons-of-frontier --- Narrated by TYPE III AUDIO. ---Images from the article:Apple Podcasts and Spotify do not show images in the episode description.

In this final episode of the ICH Quality series, we walk through the most important concepts in ICH Q14 and how they fit into the broader ICH quality framework.Rather than reviewing the guideline section by section, this episode focuses on the ideas that are most useful in practice: Why does ICH Q14 start with the Analytical Target Profile (ATP)? How is it different from ICH Q2? How do you develop analytical procedures using a science- and risk-based approach? And what does all of this have to do with ICH Q12 and lifecycle management?One quick note: at the time of recording, ICH Q14 remains under public comment, so some details may evolve before the final version is adopted.Chapters00:00 – Intro and ICH Q14 vs. Q201:08 – The Analytical Target Profile (ATP)04:16 – The Analytical Procedure Lifecycle05:32 – Risk-Based Development and Enhanced Approaches06:20 – Where ICH Q2 Fits: Validation08:04 – Connecting Q14 to ICH Q12 and Lifecycle Management09:22 – Closing the ICH Quality SeriesIn this episode, we cover:• Why ICH Q14 exists• The difference between ICH Q14 and ICH Q2• What an Analytical Target Profile (ATP) is• ATP examples and performance criteria• Technology selection and fit-for-purpose methods• The analytical procedure lifecycle• Risk assessments and enhanced development approaches• Multivariate experiments and DOE concepts• Analytical procedure control strategies• Validation and the role of ICH Q2• Lifecycle management of analytical procedures• The connection between ICH Q14 and ICH Q12• Why understanding matters more than simply checking a boxIf you've followed along through the ICH Quality series, one of the themes that keeps showing up is that quality isn't something you test into products at the end. Whether we're talking about Q8, Q9, Q10, Q12, or now Q14, the emphasis continues to shift toward building knowledge, understanding risk, and using that understanding throughout the lifecycle.Subhi Saadeh is the Founder and Principal at Let's Combinate, where he helps teams develop and control drug-device combination products by aligning quality systems, development, and regulatory expectations across drug and device domains.

Live Work with Ruben: Part 1 of 2 Working with Performance Anxiety in Real Time Hosts: Kevin Cornelius, LMFT Dr. David Burns Guests: Dr. Jill Levitt Ruben Land In this live work from a recent Tuesday Group, we had the opportunity to work with Ruben, a highly capable and thoughtful clinician, who brought a struggle that many therapists quietly share: intense performance anxiety in evaluative situations, especially in the presence of authority figures or people he deeply admires. What made this work especially powerful is that Ruben was actively experiencing anxiety in the moment, allowing us to "get in the car with him" rather than talk about the problem abstractly. We began, as always in TEAM-CBT, with Testing. Ruben had completed a Brief Mood Survey, which showed relatively low baseline symptoms—just mild anxiety and minimal depression or anger. However, when we reviewed his Daily Mood Log, anchored to a specific situation (leading a group under supervision), we saw a very different picture: anxiety at 70%, feelings of inferiority and defectiveness at 80%, embarrassment at 70%. This contrast highlights a core principle: symptoms are often situational and state-dependent, and without anchoring in a specific moment, we risk missing the true intensity of the problem. From there, we moved into Empathy, where Jill did a beautiful job modeling the Five Secrets of Effective Communication. She captured Ruben's internal experience with precision: the pressure to perform, the fear of saying the wrong thing, the spiral of anxiety leading to cognitive blanking, and the secondary anxiety about appearing anxious. She also identified both the internal loop ("I'm anxious about being anxious") and the interpersonal fears ("they'll think I'm a fraud," "I'm wasting their time"). David complemented this with curiosity and gentle inquiry, helping to deepen the conceptualization without getting lost in theory. Importantly, we conducted an empathy check, asking Ruben to grade us on thought empathy, feeling empathy, and warmth. He gave A+ ratings across the board, with a slight adjustment on thought empathy when he introduced an additional element: a compulsive need to check and recheck, suggesting a subtle OCD-like process. This moment is critical—without the empathy check, we would have missed an important maintaining factor. Only after strong empathy did we move into Agenda Setting, which is often the most counterintuitive and transformative part of TEAM-CBT. David began with the Invitation, asking whether Ruben wanted help or more support. Ruben was ready to "roll up his sleeves," which is essential—no imposed agenda. Then we used the Miracle Question to clarify goals: Ruben wanted to feel less anxious, maintain fluency, and stay present in high-stakes situations. Next came the Magic Button, targeting outcome resistance. When asked if he would eliminate all his negative feelings, Ruben said no—he wanted to keep some anxiety. This is exactly what we hope for. It opens the door to Positive Reframing, where we honor the symptoms rather than pathologize them. Together, we identified numerous positive values and benefits of his anxiety and self-doubt: Anxiety motivates preparation and effort It enhances connection through vulnerability It reflects caring deeply about others and their time Feelings of inadequacy keep him humble and growth-oriented Fear of judgment protects him and signals high standards Even the thought "I might be a fraud" reflects a desire to be authentic and competent At one point, Ruben articulated that his anxiety shows he values others and wants to contribute meaningfully—this is a profound reframe. Jill and David reinforced these insights, helping him see that his "symptoms" are actually expressions of his values system in action. We also explored a key factor: his anxiety is amplified in performative, evaluative contexts, especially with authority figures, and is less intense in vulnerable, non-evaluative settings. This distinction is clinically crucial and guides both conceptualization and intervention. Another powerful moment came when Ruben acknowledged that self-disclosure reduces his anxiety, supporting the idea that "shame requires secrecy." When he hides his anxiety, it intensifies; when he shares it, it softens. This is both a therapeutic tool and a treatment target. After thoroughly addressing resistance, we moved into Goal Setting, asking Ruben not what he wants to eliminate, but what he wants to dial down. This is a hallmark of TEAM: Anxiety: 70 → 30 Shame: 30 → 20 Inadequacy: 80 → 30 Embarrassment: 70 → 20 We then transitioned into Methods, targeting the thought: "My speech is too slow, and I sound foolish, ignorant, and boring." Jill began with a classic but essential step: identify the distortions. Ruben quickly identified all-or-nothing thinking, overgeneralization, mental filter, discounting positives, mind reading, fortune telling, labeling, self-blame, and hidden "shoulds." This is an important teaching point: when a thought contains nearly all distortions, it's not a problem—it's a goldmine. From there, rather than staying intellectual, we offered multiple method pathways—Externalization of Voices, Feared Fantasy, Be Specific, and Double Standard—modeling flexibility and collaboration. Ruben chose Externalization of Voices, which became the central method. David stepped in as the Negative Ruben, delivering the attack clearly and forcefully. This is essential—the more vivid the critic, the more powerful the response. Ruben responded using a blend of acceptance ("it's true I sometimes pause"), self-defense, and realism (some people may not like it, and that's okay). He won "big," but not "huge," which is a key TEAM moment—we don't settle for partial wins. They then moved into role reversal, and this is where things deepened. When Ruben played the critic and David responded, David modeled a powerful combination of self-acceptance, counterattack, and refusal to buy into the critic's frame. He highlighted that the real problem wasn't slow speech—it was the constant inner criticism. Ruben immediately recognized this as a "huge" win. Ruben then practiced again, this time integrating acceptance, values ("my heart is in the right place"), and counterattack ("the bigger problem is your nagging voice"). This time it felt huge. Next, they targeted a different thought: "If I screw up, David will be disgusted and see I'm a worthless, selfish fraud." This brought up more anxiety, and Ruben got stuck. Jill did something very important here—she paused the method and returned to empathy, naming the pressure to "do it right" and the performance anxiety happening inside the exercise itself. After empathy, they resumed. Jill modeled a powerful response in role reversal that included radical acceptance of imperfection ("I expect to screw up"), a growth mindset ("that's why I collect feedback"), and a reframe of failure as essential to learning. She also gently challenged the distortion of David as a harsh authority figure and emphasized choosing supportive learning environments. Ruben then extended this insight even further, saying, "the more I fail, the better… the more vulnerable I am, the less I appear like a fraud." This was a genuine shift. They then moved into Feared Fantasy, with David playing "David from Hell," saying things like "you're incompetent," "you're worthless," and "you should find another profession." Ruben responded by using Be Specific, asking what exactly he had done wrong. When the answer became "you paused," the entire structure of the criticism collapsed. Ruben saw the absurdity and described the experience as a weight lifting. This is a classic TEAM moment—when global, harsh judgments are reduced to specific, manageable behaviors, they lose their power. They extended this further with the thought "I'm wasting people's time." Through additional role plays, Ruben practiced self-defense and purpose clarification, David used humor and counterattack, and Jill demonstrated Be Specific in a very precise way—asking exactly how long a pause should be, exposing the irrationality of the standard. The work then expanded to include the group. Participants used Externalization of Voices to challenge Ruben's thoughts, and Ruben responded with increasing strength and clarity, using self-acceptance and reversal of beliefs (for example, recognizing that vulnerability actually increases connection). David then introduced the Survey Technique, asking Ruben to directly check his assumptions with the group. The responses were striking—people reported never noticing pauses, experiencing him as thoughtful and engaging, and feeling more connected because of his style. This directly disconfirmed his mind reading and labeling. At the end, they returned to Testing. Anxiety went from 70 to 0, shame from 30 to 0, inadequacy from 80 to 10, embarrassment from 70 to 0, rejection from 40 to 0, and frustration from 30 to 0. Ruben reported that the change felt real and that his belief in the negative thoughts had dropped dramatically. When asked what created the breakthrough, Ruben identified two key moments. First, a deep emotional realization that the goal is actually to make mistakes—that failure is not something to avoid but something to embrace. Second, a shift in how he saw authority figures—recognizing that the perceived gap between himself and others was distorted. As that sense of separation dissolved, so did much of the anxiety. David highlighted that much of our suffering comes from that artificial separation—seeing others as powerful and ourselves as deficient. Jill added an important layer: when we assume others are harsh, judgmental, and critical, we are also distorting them, not just ourselves. Some key clinical takeaways: Externalization of Voices becomes especially powerful when it includes emotion, repetition, and role reversal. Feared Fantasy works best when the criticism becomes specific and even a bit absurd. The Survey Technique is extremely effective for dismantling mind-reading. And often, breakthrough comes when patients fully embrace failure and let go of perfectionism.

Welcome back to the Bodcast! Off the back of the last episode on the foundations of fat loss, I am bringing you another exclusive piece of coaching content straight from the EC Method. This week, we are diving deep into the exact methods of muscle building. Whether you are chasing that "toned" aesthetic or looking to bulletproof your body against aging, this episode breaks down exactly what you need to do to get there. In this episode I cover: Why We Build Muscle: It is not just about getting that "toned" aesthetic. Muscle mass is absolutely crucial for your metabolic health, bone density, longevity, and mental well-being. The Training Stimulus: Why lifting free weights or using resistance machines is the ultimate way to trigger growth. I explain why beginners need to prioritize full-body compound lifts 2 to 3 times a week. Protein & Calories: You need 1.6g to 2g of protein per kg of body weight to build new tissue. Plus, I bust the massive myth that you must be in a calorie surplus to grow muscle. The Reality of Recovery: Muscle is built while you rest, not while you lift. Prioritizing sleep and scheduling proper rest days are non-negotiable. Patience & Timelines: The hard truth about how slow muscle growth actually is (especially for women) and what realistic progress looks like over your first 6 to 12 months. Just a quick reminder: we have a new intake of clients for the EC Method starting on June 15th! Head over to theecmethod.co.uk to secure your spot.

Coming soon to the American Nightmares award winning podcast feed.In the early 1990s, a serial killer hunted the canals of Phoenix, Arizona. A violent psychopath. Two grisly homicides. Methods so disturbing they drew comparisons to Jack the Ripper himself.For decades, the killer hid in plain sight — evading justice, living in a twisted world of fantasy, while Arizona's most infamous cold case grew cold. Investigators searched for answers. Families searched for closure. Neither found what they were looking for.Until now.Host Brian Peter Falk gets you closer to this chilling investigation Unraveling the threads of a case that shook a city, Brian goes beyond the headlines to uncover the dark truths that have remained buried for over thirty years.

In this episode of the Observatory Podcast, Scott and LaRae Wright sit down with Dr. Reid Robison to explore psychedelic therapy methods, ketamine-assisted psychotherapy, clinical research with psilocybin, MDMA, LSD, and the deeper relationship between mental health, spirituality, healing, and self-awareness. Dr. Robison shares how psychedelic medicines are being studied and used in careful therapeutic settings to help people work through depression, anxiety, PTSD, addiction, end-of-life fear, and deeply ingrained patterns of suffering. Together, they discuss the difference between symptom management and true healing, the importance of preparation and integration, the role of music as medicine, and why awareness may be one of the most powerful gifts these experiences can offer. This conversation also explores the future of psychedelic medicine, the evolving legal landscape, and the hope that these therapies may help more people access healing in safe, supported, and meaningful ways.Timestamps: [00:00:03] Welcome to The Observatory Podcast[00:00:17] Introducing Dr. Reid Robison and psychedelic therapy for mental health[00:05:40] Dr. Robison's path through psychiatry, ketamine, ayahuasca, MDMA, psilocybin, and LSD research[00:08:00] The 1960s, the war on drugs, and why psychedelic research disappeared for decades[00:13:35] Depression, anxiety, trauma, addiction, and stuck thought patterns[00:16:10] Awareness, self-observation, and learning to see yourself clearly[00:19:31] The harm chart, psilocybin, alcohol, and rethinking risk[00:26:23] What ketamine is and how ketamine-assisted psychotherapy works[00:30:00] Preparation, dosing sessions, music, and integration[00:31:32] Neuroplasticity and reshaping old patterns[00:35:40] Music as medicine in psychedelic journeys[00:44:39] End-of-life anxiety, terminal illness, and psilocybin as a sacred passage[00:46:49] Spirituality, religion, and reconnecting with belief in a higher power[00:52:34] Healing stories, family work, couples work, MDMA, and PTSD[00:58:12] Psychedelic therapy, suicide, religion, and signs of cultural change[01:02:11] The future of psilocybin, MDMA, DMT, and legal therapeutic access[01:04:57] Self-awareness, sovereignty, and becoming your own curriculumNotable Quotes: “Psychedelics have proven to be a really effective way of doing that.

It becomes a thought pattern loop that we're stuck in.” - Dr. Reid Robison [13:57]“The single greatest thing that psychedelic medicines, plant medicines have given to me, in my experience with them and what I've observed with so many others is awareness.” - Dr. Reid Robison [16:59]“These medicines open up a window of opportunity, not just with awareness but also with neuroplasticity.” - Dr. Reid Robison [31:32]“They don't impose a religious belief.” - Dr. Reid Robison [46:56]“You are your own curriculum, you know, you are what you need to kind of understand.” - LaRae Wright [01:05:09] Relevant Links: Dr. Reid Robison: www.reidrobison.comNuminus: numinus.comPsychedelic Therapy Frontiers: therapyfrontiers.comInstagram: @innerspacedoctorProduced by NC ProductionsSubscribe to the podcast: Apple Podcast

Dentists have been attempting to treat cracked teeth for decades, with the goal of alleviating patient pain and conserving teeth through restorative treatment. But as Dr. David Alleman, DDS, describes in this episode, “it's a coin toss of success.” Methods such as retention to hold the crack together or bonding over the crack with adhesion are unpredictable. Sometimes the treatment works, and sometimes it doesn't, leaving patients and practitioners frustrated. The solution: treat cracked teeth like engineers have been treating cracks for over a century. The challenge: applying these techniques to a biological environment and accounting for bacteria, dentin hydration and dental adhesives.Dr. David Alleman, DDS, discusses the history and treatment protocols for predictable cracked tooth treatment in this episode of the Six Lessons Approach podcast.Articles referenced in this episode:Brannstrom M.

In this episode, Adam breaks down why most honey on store shelves — even the stuff labeled raw, organic, and local — is little more than glorified sugar water, how Big Ag has quietly corrupted the beekeeping industry from the ground up, and why returning to the way bees were always meant to live might be the simplest and most powerful upgrade you can make to your family's health. 00:00 Becoming a Beekeeper in Tennessee 05:40 What's the best food for bees? 11:30 Not all Honey is the Same 17:20 Commercial vs Backyard Success Rate  21:20 Methods of Beekeeping & How Adam Teaches It 30:30 How to Trap & Catch Feral Bees 39:00 Being Good Stewards of the Land 44:00 The Danger of Varroa Mites  45:30 Honeybees are Not Native to the U.S. 48:30 Can Bees Sense Fear? 51:50 The Return to Nature 56:20 Does Better Honey Mean Better Health? 01:00:30 The Reward of Hard Work 01:09:40 Mind-Blowing Queen Bee Facts 01:13:10 Learn More About Beekeeping

At a motorcycle track, a middle-aged man suffers a massive crash off a jump. Byt the time our team arrives on scene, the man is inflating like a balloon suffering from massive structural-distorting subcutaneous emphysema. The massive air pockets completely obliterated his normal anatomy, leaving them to guess: Do we blindly plunge decompressing needles into his chest where the landmarks have completely vanished or do we prioritize and secure the airway using advanced focused techniques?

Send us Fan MailIf you've ever followed every step of a manifestation method and still felt like nothing was changing — this episode is for you.The viral techniques spreading across TikTok right now (the 369 method, the pillow method, water affirmations, the list method) all share one thing in common: they put the emphasis on the doing. The ritual. The repetition. The exact words. And that's not where the power is.In this episode, Kelly breaks down what Neville Goddard's Law of Assumption actually teaches — and why every method only works when it successfully shifts your inner state. Not your behavior. Not your output. Your felt sense of who you already are.What you'll take away from this episode:Why "am I doing this right?" is the wrong question — and what to ask insteadThe identity shift that separates the people manifestation "works for" from everyone elseA simple pre-sleep practice rooted in Neville's "state akin to sleep" teachingWhy creators and conscious builders hit a specific identity block — and how to move through itThe method was never the point.

The study centers on the necessity and method of Christian apologetics, grounded in Scripture and the sovereignty of God, rather than human reason or philosophical argumentation. Drawing from Paul's encounter in Athens, it emphasizes that the natural person, though inherently aware of God through creation and the sensus divinitatis, cannot understand spiritual truths apart from the regenerating work of the Holy Spirit. The preacher argues that true apologetics is not about proving God through logic or evidence, but about proclaiming the gospel with conviction, recognizing that salvation is entirely God's work, even as believers are commanded to evangelize. The sermon critiques classical, evidential, and presuppositional apologetics as human frameworks, affirming instead that biblical reasoning must be shaped by divine revelation, not human wisdom, and that the ultimate authority lies in Scripture, which is sufficient, trustworthy, and the means by which God brings the spiritually dead to life through the proclamation of repentance and faith.

Ileocolic resection is one of the most common operations performed for Crohn's disease, yet the optimal approach to anastomotic construction and mesenteric management remains an active area of debate. From the configuration of the anastomosis to the extent of mesenteric excision, emerging evidence suggests that surgical technique may play a meaningful role in disease outcomes. Join Drs. Jared Hendren, Elissa Dabaghi, Joseph Trunzo, Ajaratu Keshinro, and David Rosen as they discuss methods for ileocolic anastomosis in Crohn's disease while reviewing the latest literature.Hosts: - Jared Hendren, MDInstitution: Department of General Surgery, Digestive Disease Institute, Cleveland Clinic Foundation, Cleveland, Ohio- Elissa Dabaghi, MDInstitution: Department of General Surgery, Digestive Disease Institute, Cleveland Clinic Foundation, Cleveland, Ohio- Joseph Trunzo, MDInstitution: Department of Colon and Rectal Surgery, Digestive Disease Institute, Cleveland Clinic Foundation, Cleveland, OhioX/Twitter @joseph_trunzo- Ajaratu Keshinro, MDInstitution: Department of Colon and Rectal Surgery, Digestive Disease Institute, Cleveland Clinic Foundation, Cleveland, OhioX/Twitter- @AJKesh- David Rosen, MDInstitution: Department of Colon and Rectal Surgery, Digestive Disease Institute, Cleveland Clinic Foundation, Cleveland, OhioX/Twitter- @davidrrosenmdLearning Objectives: By the end of this episode, listeners will be able to:1.     Evaluate the evidence for the Kono-S anastomosis in reducing postoperative recurrence after ileocolic resection for Crohn's disease2.     Describe the role of the mesentery in driving recurrence and discuss how mesenteric-targeting surgical approaches may influence outcomes3.     Interpret the results of recent randomized controlled trials on extended mesenteric excision and apply them to surgical decision-making in ileocolic resection for Crohn's diseasePlease visit https://behindtheknife.org to access other high-yield surgical education podcasts, videos and more.  If you liked this episode, check out our recent episodes here: https://behindtheknife.org/listenBehind the Knife Premium: https://behindtheknife.org/premiumOral Board Review: https://behindtheknife.org/oral-boardOral Board Simulator: https://behindtheknife.org/oral-board/simulatorGeneral Surgery Oral Board Review Course: https://behindtheknife.org/premium/general-surgery-oral-board-reviewTrauma Surgery Video Atlas: https://behindtheknife.org/premium/trauma-surgery-video-atlasDominate Surgery: A High-Yield Guide to Your Surgery Clerkship: https://behindtheknife.org/premium/dominate-surgery-a-high-yield-guide-to-your-surgery-clerkshipDominate Surgery for APPs: A High-Yield Guide to Your Surgery Rotation: https://behindtheknife.org/premium/dominate-surgery-for-apps-a-high-yield-guide-to-your-surgery-rotationVascular Surgery Oral Board Review Course: https://behindtheknife.org/premium/vascular-surgery-oral-board-reviewColorectal Surgery Oral Board Review Course: https://behindtheknife.org/premium/colorectal-surgery-oral-board-reviewSurgical Oncology Oral Board Review Course: https://behindtheknife.org/premium/surgical-oncology-oral-board-reviewCardiothoracic Oral Board Review Course: https://behindtheknife.org/premium/cardiothoracic-surgery-oral-board-reviewDownload our App:Apple App Store: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/behind-the-knife/id1672420049Android/Google Play: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.btk.app&hl=en_US

Your lungs already know how to run. The real problem is all the breathing advice telling you otherwise.Breathing is one of the most overcomplicated topics in running. I tested seven popular techniques, from box breathing and Wim Hof to nose breathing and diaphragmatic breathing, to find out which ones actually help you run easier and which ones are better left for bedtime. In this episode, I break down what works during a run, what helps with recovery, and why the simplest approach often delivers the biggest results. If you've ever felt out of breath on easy runs or wondered whether you're breathing “wrong,” this episode will help you train smarter and breathe with less effort.Key TakeawaysMost Breathing Techniques Work Better for Recovery: Methods like 4-7-8, Wim Hof, and box breathing can help you relax and recover, but they are not the best tools to use while you're actually running.Diaphragmatic Breathing Makes Running Feel Easier: Learning to breathe from your belly helps you take deeper breaths and gives you a stronger foundation for every other breathing technique.The Best Breathing Strategy Is to Keep It Simple: Use nose breathing on easy runs to control your pace, and switch to mouth breathing when the effort gets hard and your body needs more air.Timestamps[00:27] What You'll Learn[01:30] How I'm Ranking Them[02:12] #7 4-7-8 Breathing[03:09] Use This to Breathe Better on Your Runs[03:44] #6 Wim Hof Power Breaths[04:44] #5 Box Breathing[06:10] #4 3-2 Rhythmic Stride Breathing[07:51] #3 Cyclic Sighing / Physiological Sigh[09:44] Help Another Runner by Doing This Super Easy Thing[10:31] #2 Diaphragmatic Belly Breathing[12:03] #1 The Best Breathing Method of All[14:44] Why the Best One Is Boring[15:43] Go Deeper on Nose vs. Mouth BreathingLinks & Learnings

We're surrounded by plastics and environmental chemicals every day, but only recently have scientists begun to understand how deeply they may be affecting human health. On this episode of The Dr. Hyman Show, I sit down with Dr. Shanna Swan to explore what the latest science reveals about plastics, fertility, hormone health, and the everyday habits that may be shaping our biology more than we realize. Watch the full conversation on YouTube, or listen wherever you get your podcasts.

If you have ever done everything right, followed the plan, tracked the food, scheduled the workouts, and still found yourself starting over on Monday, this episode is going to change how you think about fitness habits forever. The problem was never your discipline. It was never your motivation. It was your brain wiring.Alisha Carlson breaks down the real science behind why traditional habit methods fail high-achieving women. She covers habit loops, neural pathways, the subconscious mind, and how chronic stress triggers survival mode and makes sustainable behavior change feel almost impossible no matter how hard you try. This is not another pep talk about motivation. It is the brain science behind the identity shift that finally makes stopping the restart cycle possible.If you are a high-achieving woman, busy mom, or mompreneur who is exhausted from restarting, this one is for you.WHAT YOU'LL LEARNWhy traditional habit methods don't work for high-achieving women and what the brain science says actually doesHow habit loops (cue, routine, reward) run your behavior on autopilot using neural pathways formed years agoWhy your subconscious mind drives the vast majority of your daily behavior and what that means for sustainable habitsHow stress management becomes critical when chronic stress activates survival mode and makes behavior change harder regardless of your motivationWhy your self-image and identity shift influences your actions far more than any goal you setHow small, incremental changes reinforce new neural pathways more effectively than intensity or perfectionHow to stop self-sabotage patterns and build a mindset for lasting fitness habits without white-knuckling itTHIS EPISODE IS FOR YOU IF...You are a high-achieving woman who understands the mindset and brain wiring behind why your habits keep breaking downYou have followed every plan, managed your stress, done the behavior change work, and still feel like you are failingYou are a busy mom or mompreneur ready for a sustainable, non-diet approach to fitness habitsYou are navigating perimenopause and noticing that traditional habit methods no longer work for your bodyYou want an identity shift that builds a healthier relationship with your body without requiring perfectionFollow Alisha on Instagram: instagram.com/alishacarlson_Or @thestrongherwayIf today's episode resonated and you are tired of traditional habit methods that keep you stuck in the restart cycle, there is a different way.

Formal methods are a branch of mathematics and computer science focused on proving the correctness of systems, and they have long promised a more rigorous foundation for software. However, their complexity has kept them confined to a small community of specialists. That is now changing as agentic AI systems take on increasingly autonomous roles. The The post Formal Methods as Agent Guardrails appeared first on Software Engineering Daily.

Here are the new stories we covered this week: Macky:  Cannabis: it's medicine if you're rich enough – a crime if you're not  Smee: Navigating Medical Cannabis Access: A Family's Journey Through UK Prescribing Challenges - Hemp Gazette  Billy:  Bedrocan announced the launch of Bedromed, a new range of products designed to offer its pharmaceutical grade cannabinoids in more modern forms of administration.  John: CBD Holds Potential As An ‘Anticancer Agent' For Dogs, New Scientific Review Concludes We start off with John bringing us a story about how CBD can help treat cancer in dogs.... and humans, but the focus is more on dogs than humans, for some reason ( to avoid pharma flags most likely). Then Smee tells us about the struggles families in the UK have to go through to get medicine for their children, and highlights the struggle of Hannah Deacon and her family. Billy then tells use about some new cannabis application methods available to patients soon, and how it can benefit certain patients. Finally, Macky tells us about the problems of the prices of cannabis medicine in the UK, and how it affects people in different class brackets. If you can pay the fee, you're good to go, if you cant, you're a  criminal!  Some great news stories, and great discussion, I hope you all enjoy the episode.  If you have any stories you would like us to cover on next weeks show, feel free to get in touch on any of your favourite networks! Thanks as always for listening, I hope you enjoy the show

In this week's episode, we're joined by Dr. Dave Collins for a wide-ranging conversation on coaching, skill acquisition, practice design, and the importance of knowing when different methods fit.As ecological dynamics, the constraints-led approach, cognitive science, and predictive processing continue to shape modern coaching conversations, Dave brings a balanced and practical lens to the discussion. Rather than treating any one approach as the answer, he pushes coaches toward a more useful question: what are we trying to achieve, with this group, in this moment, and why?The conversation explores how coaches can blend different approaches across the season, from early skill development and player understanding, to building shared mental models, anticipation, team coordination, and decision-making under pressure. Dave also discusses the role of film, small-sided games, representative practice design, and the value of moving between “thinking slow” and “playing fast.”We also dive into resilience, failure, and the “informed art” of coaching, including how coaches can design challenges, debrief effectively, and help players learn from both good and bad days without turning every setback into a vague motivational slogan.For coaches interested in ecological dynamics, constraints-led coaching, cognitive science, predictive processing, player development, anticipation, practice design, and team learning, this episode offers a grounded look at how theory can become more useful inside real coaching environments.What You'll Learn How ecological dynamics, cognitive science, and predictive processing can all fit inside a coach's toolkit  Why the best coaching answer is often not “which method is best?” but “what does it depend on?”  How coaches can build shared mental models within a team  Why film still matters, even inside representative and constraints-led practice environments  How to use small-sided games, whole-part-whole teaching, and purposeful practice design  Why anticipation is shaped by experience, scouting, understanding, and focused attention  How coaches can move players from “thinking slow” to “playing fast”  Why resilience is often overused, misunderstood, and better treated as an outcome than a fixed trait  How to design challenge, failure, and pressure without overwhelming players  Why adaptive expertise may be one of the most important qualities for modern coachesTo join coaches and championship winning staffs from the NBA to High School from over 70 different countries taking advantage of an SG Plus membership, visit HERE!

Fasting, nutrient timing, chrono-nutrition, and continuous glucose monitoring are all topics that have generated substantial interest, but they are also areas where exaggerated claims can easily outpace the underlying evidence. In many cases, tentative hypotheses are presented as if they were already well-established conclusions, despite the fact that the research base is often more mixed and context-dependent than popular narratives imply. It is one thing for an idea to appear biologically coherent. It is another for that idea to translate into meaningful, reliable effects in real-world interventions. In this episode, Professor James Betts discusses how to think clearly about these topics, why common errors in interpretation can lead to overstated conclusions, and what is required to properly evaluate whether an observed effect reflects a true intervention effect rather than baseline differences, inappropriate comparisons, within-group changes, or mechanistic signals being mistaken for meaningful health outcomes.
