How do you usually calm down? Have you heard about breathing for anxiety relief? Today, Jay welcomes back world-renowned breathwork pioneer and “Iceman” Wim Hof to explore how the human body and mind are capable of far more than we believe. Together, they dive into the origins of the Wim Hof Method and how it harnesses the transformative power of breath, cold exposure, and commitment to unlock profound healing, emotional resilience, and spiritual clarity. Wim shares the emotional story of how his mother’s invocation at his birth and the tragic loss of his wife became catalysts for his life’s mission: to help others reconnect with their inner strength and soul purpose. He explains how breathwork and cold immersion can help regulate the nervous system, reduce inflammation, conquer anxiety, and even break through grief and trauma. Jay and Wim also discuss the simplicity of the method, its scientific validation, and how surrender and intention unlock states of consciousness once thought to be out of reach. In this interview, you'll learn: How to Reduce Inflammation Naturally with Breathing Techniques How to Strengthen Your Immune System in Just 30 Minutes How to Calm Anxiety Through Simple Daily Breathwork How to Access Inner Peace by Controlling Your Breath How to Unlock Your True Potential in Just One Week You are far more powerful than you realize. Whether you're battling anxiety, feeling stuck, or simply looking to reconnect with yourself, the tools you need are already within you—your breath, your body, and your willingness to try. With Love and Gratitude, Jay Shetty Safety Disclaimer: Don't do the Wim Hof breathing in a swimming pool, before going underwater, beneath the shower, or piloting any vehicle. Always practice sitting or lying down in a safe environment. Tinnitus symptoms may appear as a result of pushing too forcefully during the breathing exercise. If this happens, take a step back in your future practice – it's important to increase gradually, not forcefully!

To think like God, you must have a thought process that is always and completely righteous. Believe it or not, we actually have this ability! We use it every day. In fact, we LOVE using it on other people – but rarely use it on ourselves, because doing so would require something most of us struggle with: HUMILITY. However, when properly mastered, this thought process will not only ensure that you will always be right (righteous), it will allow you to end any disagreement in seconds. In fact, if world leaders used this thought process, we'd have world peace in a matter of hours! In this week's podcast:How can we always be right when much of what we think is ALREADY wrong?The reason that red and blue Jellybeans are the official FBR logoThe definition of humility and why God gives such high regard to the humbleThe definition of Pride, why it's so easy, and why God hates it so muchWhy pride is the source of ALL disagreements (and will GUARANTEE that you'll go to Hell)Why religion is the WORST form of prideHow to end ANY argument in less than 2 minutesHow relying on God is the ONLY way we can be righteous and humbleFor exclusive content, Q&A Videos, and private Bible study, become a Faith By Reason Patreon www.patreon.com/faithbyreason

Bonnie's passion is sharing her knowledge with financial advisors. When she founded Endeavor Retirement, her goal was to make retirement legislation easy to understand. She keeps advisors up to date on the rules and regulations through her webinars, presentations, and consultations. The result — advisors and consultants help more people access their retirement savings.In this episode, Eric and Bonnie Treichel discuss:Next practices when making meeting minutesHow much is enoughWhat SHOULD be includedWhat is unnecessaryAvoiding potential issues by following the plan document Documenting processes in target date funds ESG is an extension of the fiduciary process Key Takeaways:When making meeting minutes, strike the perfect balance between including enough information to demonstrate loyalty and prudence without being overly detailed. Avoid having conflicting sets of minutes. Document who was present, what their role is, and the topics covered. Include supporting documents and references in meeting minutes. Follow the plan document to avoid potential issues with compliance, forfeiture accounts need to be spent according to the plan document. One way where advisors can help out plan sponsors is with fiduciary calendars and checklists. Follow a prudent process with target date funds and document that process. As an advisor, you must help plan sponsors with benchmarking and RFPs. Commit to regularly reviewing the DOL's 2013 Target Date Fund Tips. ESG is not a separate process but an extension of the existing fiduciary process. Document the rationale for including ESG factors and ensure that they are in the best financial interest of participants. Advisors need to help plan sponsors understand their fiduciary liability insurance and their role as a fiduciary. “It's up to us over time to piece together these best practices. This is iterative, you have to meet people where they are.

How to get rid of insomnia? Once you don't get enough sleep, that's it. People seem terribly annoying, work stalls, and the future seems unattractive. Lots of stress, hypodynamia, hours spent at the wheel or computer — it all makes our back muscles stiff and prevents us from relaxing before sleep. That's why we toss and turn for hours before getting a shallow and troubled sleep. Bright Side collected several simple but effective tricks for back muscle relief which will help you fall asleep faster and get sound sleep. You can do them right on the bed, and they'll suit people with any level of fitness.

TIMESTAMPS: Wind-relieving pose 0:48 Feet on the wall 1:40 Wave exercises 2:17 Shavasana 3:26 SUMMARY: - Pawanmuktasana, or wind-relieving pose, relieves the entire spine, especially the lower back and thighs, in a minute. Also, this yoga pose regulates the work of the intestine. Therefore, it's useful to do it in the morning. - The feet on the wall position rests the legs and back, opens the chest, and allows the lungs to be satiated with oxygen before going to bed. - Wave exercises allow you to relax your back even more — they "get" to the deep muscles of the spine, located under the surface layers. - If you do Shavasana properly before bed, it'll be really easy to fall asleep. You'll feel how the world is vanishing, and your whole body is as relaxed as possible. It's time to cover yourself with a blanket and go to sleep.

How to Manage a Dog Lunging on Leash By Stephanie Gibeault, MSc, CPDT Updated: Sep 22, 2021 | 5 Minutes How to Manage a Dog Lunging on Leash – American Kennel Club Do you dread taking your dog for a walk because they lunge at other dogs, other people, or objects like cars or skateboards? Maybe they bark or growl too. Walking an out-of-control dog is both physically and emotionally exhausting. It's tempting to avoid walks altogether, but then your dog isn't getting the mental stimulation and physical exercise they need. So, what do you do? Read on for tips to manage and improve your dog's lunging behavior. Understand Why Dogs Lunge Dog experts often label dogs who lunge and bark during walks as “leash reactive.” A reactive dog is one who becomes overly aroused by normal situations, and a leash reactive dog is one who behaves that way on leash. But what causes this behavior? There are three possible motivations for lunging. The least likely is aggression. Although rare, some dogs truly want to do harm. Fear is a far more common motivator. Using the “I'll get it before it gets me” strategy, dogs lunge to try to make the feared person, dog, or other object go away. Finally, your dog might be excited to approach the person, dog, or object, but because the leash is preventing that, they become frustrated and lose emotional control. You need to take all these motivations seriously, but it's important to understand which one is driving your dog. For example, if your dog is frustrated, lessons in emotional self-control come in handy. If your dog is fearful, building self-confidence is key. However, regardless of the reason for the lunging, some of the basic management tools and treatments are the same. Manage Your Dog's Behavior It's important to prevent your dog from lunging because every time they do, they're practicing the behavior and developing a self-reinforcing habit. And the firmer the habit, the harder it will be to change. But how do you prevent lunging? First, never punish your dog for this behavior. You will only exacerbate the problem. Your dog will associate the punishment with the other person, dog, or object which will strengthen their fear or jack up their frustration. Second, use the correct equipment for walking. A buckle collar can put a lot of pressure on your dog's throat when they lunge. A front-clip harness is a better choice. It will put the pressure on your dog's chest and help turn them back toward you when they spring forward. A head halter (also called a head harness) is another option for a leash-reactive dog. It loops around your dog's nose and allows you to control their head like the reins of a horse. However, many dogs need help adjusting to a halter and they can damage their necks if they hit the end of the leash with too much force. To prevent that, you can clip one leash to their buckle collar and another to their halter, so the collar leash takes the force during lunges and the halter leash gently turns your dog's head. Finally, be proactive. Plan your walks for times when your dog is unlikely to encounter any triggers (the people, dogs, or objects that cause the lunging to occur). That might be late at night or with the sunrise. Also choose the quietest route. And always be on the lookout for triggers so you can keep your dog far enough away that they don't react. That might mean taking evasive action like crossing the street or making a 180-degree turn. If you can distract your dog before they notice the trigger, even better. Constantly monitor the environment and your dog's body language so you can predict lunging before it occurs and act accordingly. Change Your Dog's Emotional Response Management will prevent your dog from practicing lunging, but it won't improve their behavior or ease their emotional state. For that, try desensitization and counterconditioning. This technique will change your dog's emotional response from negative to positive (in the case of fear-based or aggressive reactivity) or from out-of-control excitement to calm (in the case of frustration). The trick is to get your dog in the presence of their trigger but far enough away they don't react. This is known as below-threshold intensity. That could be 10 feet, or it could be 40. And different triggers might have different distances. Once you have your dog below threshold, pair the trigger with high-value rewards they would do anything for, like strips of meat, cubes of cheese, or a chance to play with their favorite toy. You want your dog to build a positive association between the wonderful goodies and the trigger. Start the process with your dog on leash. Wait for them to notice a trigger then immediately present a reward. When they glance at the trigger again, offer another reward. Continue as long as the trigger is present. With enough repetition, your dog will eventually glance at the trigger then turn right back in your direction, as if to say, “I saw it, now where's my treat?” This tells you that your dog has realized the trigger makes the reward happen, so the positive association is being formed. Now you can move a tiny bit closer to the trigger and repeat the process. The goal is to slowly reduce the distance between your dog and the trigger until they are within a few feet or less, all while keeping your dog under threshold. Then duplicate the entire procedure again with a new dog or person. Continue to repeat with as many examples of the trigger as necessary to convince your dog that their trigger makes great things happen. As a result, when they see any trigger, they will look to you for a reward instead of lunging. Try your best to control the environment during this process. You don't want a dog or stranger sneaking up and putting your dog over threshold. Instead, enlist the assistance of friends so you can coordinate a training plan using them or their dogs as the trigger. You can also try positioning your dog at a set distance from a pathway or street so you can predict passersby but control how far your dog is from them. Teach Your Dog an Incompatible Alternative Behavior You can also teach your dog to perform a behavior that is incompatible with lunging. For example, they can't lunge towards another dog and turn to look at you at the same time. If you heavily reward this alternative behavior, your dog will eventually choose to do it in place of lunging even when their trigger is close by. Some great choices include “Watch me” (where your dog looks at your face), “Touch” (where your dog targets something with their nose), or “Find it” (where you drop treats at your feet for your dog to find). These are easy to teach and easy for your dog to do even when they are emotionally aroused. And more importantly, they redirect your dog's gaze from the trigger to you. Whichever behavior you choose, make sure your dog loves to do it. Start training in a quiet environment without distractions and pile on the treats. This will show your dog how easy it is to get rewarded for the new task. Next, build distractions into your training. Then add the trigger at a below-threshold distance. When your dog looks at the trigger, ask for the replacement behavior. Shower them with treats when they obey. Finally, ask for the new behavior while slowly moving closer and closer to the trigger. If your dog reverts to lunging, you've moved too far, too fast. Eventually, rather than lunging, your dog will see the trigger as a cue to do the new behavior and earn a reward. Know When to Get Help For some dogs, you might be able to work through these techniques on your own and achieve great success in a matter of weeks. For other dogs, it's advisable to get help from an animal behaviorist or a professional dog trainer with leash reactivity experience. Your dog might also benefit from a consult with a veterinary behaviorist. If your dog is too worked up to learn, medication can control their arousal levels during training allowing them to make more progress. Lunging on leash can usually be modified into more polite and acceptable behavior. At the very least, you can minimize your dog's outbursts with good management. It takes patience and dedication to your dog and the training protocols, but walks can eventually be stress-free for both you and your dog.
As Gina Gutierrez, the co-founder of Dipsea, says in her Ted Talk, “Using their memories, fantasies, and some focus - women can turn themselves on with their thoughts.” In this conversation, Gina and I discuss exploration of fantasy, the differences between erotica and porn, ways to figure out what turns you on, and barriers to pleasure. I like the way Gina puts it, "Your desire is not a problem to be solved, but a fire to be stoked."
