What if the secret to living to 100 without chronic disease isn't a magic pill, a grueling diet, or a hidden gene? This week on In My Heart, host Heather Thompson sits down with National Geographic Explorer, bestselling author, and Blue Zones founder Dan Buettner to completely reverse-engineer how we look at aging, health, and happiness. After analyzing decades of dietary surveys, Dan reveals that the world's longest-lived populations thrive almost exclusively on whole, plant-based foods. But here is the catch: they aren't relying on willpower. In this episode, Dan breaks down the "Power 9" lifestyle habits and explains why true longevity relies on shifting our surroundings rather than forcing restrictive habits. From the "all-star" longevity ingredient sitting in your pantry to the profound impact of your immediate social circle (your "Moai"), you'll learn how to curate an ecosystem where the healthy choice is the mindless choice. Plus, Heather shares her own deeply personal journey of discovering food as medicine to save her son's life, and Dan explains how true happiness and a defined sense of purpose can statistically add up to eight extra years to your life expectancy. Forget the quick fixes and multi-billion dollar processed food propaganda. Tune in to discover the affordable, actionable four-week blueprint from Dan's latest book, The Blue Zones Challenge, and learn how to start thriving right where you are today.

Een merk bouw je niet alleen met een goed product. Je bouwt het door te durven starten, te blijven bewegen en telkens opnieuw te kiezen voor de lange termijn. Dat is precies wat Pleuni Holthausen doet met MOAI, het watersportmerk dat begon met SUP-boards en inmiddels doorgroeit richting kajaks, lifestyleproducten en internationale expansie.Pleuni begon al op haar 21e met ondernemen. Tijdens haar studie reisde ze met haar vader naar China, waar een fabriek een importeur zocht voor zeilboten in Nederland. Wat begon met zeilboten, groeide uit tot distributie en groothandel in SUP-boards. In 2017 besloot Pleuni haar eigen merk te starten: MOAI.Ze zag een gat in de markt. Aan de ene kant waren er goedkope boards van mindere kwaliteit. Aan de andere kant dure merken met een sterke focus op de mannelijke watersportscene. Pleuni wilde iets anders bouwen: een kwalitatief goed board dat beter aansloot bij gezinnen, vrouwen en recreatieve watersporters die vooral willen genieten op het water.In aflevering 88 vertelt Pleuni hoe ze haar merk vanaf het begin internationaal heeft neergezet. Niet door te wachten tot kansen vanzelf kwamen, maar door beurzen te bezoeken, winkels te benaderen en letterlijk met boards in een huurauto door Amerika te rijden. “Het is gewoon bij iedere winkel heel lief lachen, je verhaal vertellen en hopen dat ze erin trappen”, zegt ze met een glimlach.Wat haar verhaal sterk maakt, is dat ze niet alleen het succes laat zien. Pleuni vertelt ook eerlijk over de moeilijke kanten van ondernemen. Na de coronapiek kwam er een enorme omzetdaling, ontstond er te veel voorraad en kwamen marges onder druk te staan door hogere inkoopprijzen, transportkosten en internationale onzekerheid. Het dwong haar om opnieuw naar haar bedrijf te kijken.Haar belangrijkste les? Groei vraagt om structuur. “Ik had eerder iemand moeten aanhaken die me kon helpen met structuur”, vertelt ze. Als creatieve ondernemer zit Pleuni vol ideeën, maar ze ontdekte dat een bedrijf pas echt schaalbaar wordt als processen, verantwoordelijkheden en keuzes helder zijn.Toch blijft haar grootste kracht juist haar ondernemerslef. Pleuni gelooft in doen, testen, reizen, praten met klanten en leren door te vallen en weer op te staan. Ze wil niet per se de grootste worden, maar wel een merk bouwen met betekenis. Een merk waar mensen fan van worden. Haar droom is helder: MOAI laten groeien van watersportmerk naar lifestylemerk, vergelijkbaar met hoe O'Neill ooit begon.Wat haar blij maakt? Mensen op het water zien met een board dat zij heeft gemaakt. “Elke keer als ik iemand op mijn SUP zie staan, denk ik: hoe cool is dit?”Wil je het hele gesprek horen?

In episode two with former US Surgeon General Vivek Murthy, he reflects on the hidden epidemic of loneliness through the story of his own life.Moving from a tight‑knit immigrant family, to the healing power of nature, to the weight of taking the oath as Surgeon General, he shares how meaning and resilience are rooted in relationships rather than status or achievement. Vivek shares how forming a Moai (a small, committed circle of friends) transformed his life, why success in any career is ultimately relational, and how we can build connection (without relying on alcohol as a social crutch)...Vivek Murthy has just released a new Substack!

Imagine living in a place so remote that the nearest inhabited land is over two thousand kilometres away. No neighbours. No easy escape. Just ocean in every direction. And across the island are hundreds of giant stone heads, carved by hand. This place exists… and people have lived there for centuries. This episode will look at Easter Island, or Rapa Nui as it is known locally. Easter Island is in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, one of the most isolated inhabited islands on Earth, and home to hundreds of giant stone heads. So how did humans even get here? How did people cross vast oceans, reach this tiny volcanic island, and then decide to stay? And how did they organise a society capable of carving and moving some of the largest stone statues ever created? In today's episode of Thinking in English, we're travelling to the edge of the world to explore one of the most fascinating human stories ever told. And we'll learn some English vocabulary along the way!

What spiritual purpose did they serve? And how did a once-thriving civilization rise and decline in such isolation?

Wyciąć wszystkie drzewa, sprowadzić na siebie głód, a w rezultacie dopuścić się aktów kanibalizmu. Taki los miał spotkać niegdyś mieszkańców Rapa Nui. Wyspa Wielkanocna, odległa od kontynentu o ponad 3700 km, pełna jest mitów, które przeniknęły do świata nauki, a wraz z nim do naszej świadomości. Dzisiaj wiemy o niej więcej, choć wciąż niemało jest zagadek. Tymczasem potomkowie pierwszych wyspiarzy starają się odbudować zagubioną przed wiekami tożsamość i własną historię, której symbolem są posągi Moai.(00:00:00) Powitanie(00:00:56) Rozmowa(01:17:28) PodziękowaniaWszystkie głosy, które usłyszycie w tym odcinku należą do fizycznych, rzeczywiście istniejących osób i nie zostały wygenerowane maszynowo przez algorytmy.✅ Wspieraj Brzmienie Świata na Patronite:https://patronite.pl/brzmienie-swiataFB: https://www.facebook.com/brzmienieswiataIG: https://www.instagram.com/brzmienieswiata
Noah Paoa is a PhD candidate in the Department of Earth Sciences at the University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa. His research focuses on sea level rise-induced flooding and its specific impacts on coastal cultural assets and archaeological sites throughout Polynesia. Using digital elevation mapping and wave-driven flood models, Paoa's work projects future threats to irreplaceable heritage sites. In this episode of weekend one on one, he explains his research on Rapa Nui - also known as Easter Island - shows that iconic monuments, including the famous moai statues of Ahu Tongariki, are at significant risk from coastal erosion and could be reached by destructive waves as early as 2080
AP correspondent Ben Thomas reports rising seas could put Easter Island's famed statues at risk.

This week, Timelines returns to The Archaeology Show! We have always been fascinated by the Moai heads found on the island of Rapa Nui, so we used them to anchor this episode to 1100-1600 BCE.

Am 5. April 1722 entdeckte Jakob Roggeveen im Südpazifik Rapa Nui, das die Einwohner „Te Pito o Te Henua“, den „Nabel der Welt“, nannten. Die Insel sollte allerdings unter dem Namen bekannt werden, den Roggeveen ihr gab: die Osterinsel. Wer waren die Einwohner*innen und warum erschufen sie rund 1.000 riesige Steingesichter, die sogenannten Moai, und stellten sie mit dem Rücken zum Ozean auf? Warum fand die Cook-Expedition, die nur gut 50 Jahre nach Roggeveen stattfand, viele Statuen umgestürzt und beschädigt? Und warum stand das Volk der Rapa Nui gegen Ende des 19. Jahrhunderts kurz vor der Auslöschung? Was war in den knapp 200 Jahren seit der Entdeckung der Insel durch Europäer geschehen? Wir haben den aktuellen Stand der wissenschaftlichen Forschung zu Rapa Nui zusammengetragen. Vielen Dank an Lars von Auf Distanz für die Glückwünsche.

You know those massive stone giants of Easter Island that have baffled us for ages? It turns out, the ingenious Rapa Nui people used a little island magic – they rocked and rolled those statues like giant stone skateboards. And they didn't stop there – they even did a little dance called "walk the statues" to make them waltz across the island! Can you imagine that sight? So, let's unravel the mystery together and step back in time to witness the incredible feat of moving Easter Island's monumental marvels! Read more: https://brightside.me/articles/now-we...

This time, we will look back at two sites we covered in the past, but with some new information and approaches. Today's excursion is based on the Ancient Aliens episode "Mysterious Structures" from season eight. This is basically a clip show from past episodes. A bit of the issue with Ancient Aliens is that they tend to reuse material over time. But to add some new things, I'll discuss Ancient Aliens, Graham Hancock's latest season of Ancient Apocalypse, and a TikToker, all trying to claim Rapa Nui or Easter Island as either Aliens, Atlantis, or both.In the second half, we will look at the Coral Castle and if this modern megalithic structure could be an alien intervention.

We're revisiting one of our favorite episodes of the Hello Frances Podcast! On this episode, Shantelle is joined by guest Ellen May for a candid conversation about "Family First" workplace cultures and how it functions within Frances Roy. Together, they explore the fine line between fostering a family-oriented environment and when it can venture into "unfair" territory. Their discussion takes a few unexpected turns, offering an insider perspective on the origins of their friendship, the creation of their own "Moai," and the lasting bonds of mutual mentorship that transcend time and distance. Have questions or comments about this episode? We'd love to chat! Email hello@francesroy.com.
Pope Francis made an interesting statement on Friday 13, when he declared that “all religions are a path to reach God... And since God is God for everyone, we are all children of God… There is only one God, and our religions are languages, paths to reach God.” There is irony in his statement because Catholic comes from the Greek katholikos, meaning “universal,” i.e. a universal religion absorbing all others. His statement is true, but the motivation behind it may be to further demean Catholicism and help replace it with something even more universal. The word religion comes from the Latin religare, meaning “to bind” and in the non-religion of Shen-Dao, or Shinto, which means Way of Kami (God), musubi is the central Godhead, defined as “to bind.” Islam also means submission to Allah, which is Arabic for God. The universality of the WAY is present in Christianity, Islam, Buddhism, and Shinto, among others, too. We find the mallet, owl, and concept of rebirth in rituals like Kaidan Meguri, present all over the far east like we do in the west, from Freemasonry to Minerva-Athena-Lakshmi, to being “born again” in Christ. We also find megalithic holy sites in Japan, like Ishi-no-Hoden (floating stone) and Masude-no-Iwafune. Both structures have cuts and grooves that remind one of Pumu Punku in Bolivia. The floating stone appears to float on water collected from the carved out space beneath its base, a similar motif to the floating shrine of Itsukushima on Miyajima island near Hiroshima. The design blends man and God together. But the rock reminds one of the Moai heads still left unfinished in the rock, suggesting perhaps this megalith, which was ancient even in 700AD, could have been more than a sacred site; it may have been one of many rocks carved for some other purpose. Its dating places it in the Jomon era, a primitive people supposedly. It is noted in Harima Fudoki as having already been in its present location in ancient times. -FREE ARCHIVE & RSS: https://www.spreaker.com/show/the-secret-teachings Twitter: https://twitter.com/TST___Radio Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thesecretteachings WEBSITE (BOOKS, RESUBSCRIBE for early show access): http://thesecretteachings.info Paypal: rdgable@yahoo.com CashApp: $rdgable EMAIL: rdgable@yahoo.com / TSTRadio@protonmail.com
In this episode:00:45 What ancient DNA has revealed about Rapa Nui's pastAncient DNA analysis has further demonstrated that the people of Rapa Nui did not cause their own population collapse, further refuting a controversial but popular claim. Rapa Nui, also known as Easter island, is famous for its giant Moai statues and the contested idea that the people mismanaged their natural resources leading to ‘ecological suicide'. Genomes sequenced from the remains of 15 ancient islanders showed no evidence of a sudden population crash, substantiating other research challenging the collapse idea.Research Article: Moreno-Mayar et al.News and Views: Rapa Nui's population history rewritten using ancient DNANews article: Famed Pacific island's population 'crash' debunked by ancient DNA17:03 Research HighlightsThe extinct bat-eating fish that bit off more than they could chew, and how manatee dung shapes an Amazonian ecosystem.Research Highlight: Ancient fish dined on bats — or died tryingResearch Highlight: The Amazon's gargantuan gardeners: manatees19:29 A macabre parasite of adult fruit fliesDespite being a hugely-studied model organism, it seems that there's still more to find out about the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster, as researchers have discovered a new species of parasitoid wasp that infects the species. Unlike other parasitic wasps, this one lays its eggs in adult flies, with the developing larva devouring its host from the inside. The miniscule wasp was discovered by chance in an infected fruit fly collected in a Mississippi backyard and analysis suggests that despite having never been previously identified, it is widespread across parts of North America.Research article: Moore et al.32:04 Briefing ChatHow a dye that helps to give Doritos their orange hue can turn mouse tissues transparent, and an effective way to engage with climate-science sceptics.Nature News: Transparent mice made with light-absorbing dye reveal organs at workNature News: How to change people's minds about climate change: what the science says Hosted on Acast.

Hundreds of monumental human shaped statues are motionless, and exposed to the elements, on Rapa Nui - also known as Easter Island. A name that dates back to 1722, when a Dutch explorer first saw it on Easter Sunday.The statues, or Moai, were there centuries before that and are sacred to the Rapa Nui people. They've also become a world famous tourist attraction and can be found in multiple outdoor locations across the small island. They are heavy and huge - sizes range from 1 to 20 metres tall. Some are upright on platforms, others are toppled over and broken. Over the years, global weather has become more extreme and is having a devastating effect. So this week on The Inquiry we're asking - Can the statues of Easter Island survive climate change?Contributors: Sonia Haoa Cardinali, Archaeologist with the Mata Ki Te Rangi Foundation and coordinator of Easter Island's national monuments, Rapa Nui Roberto Rondanelli, Meteorologist and Climate Scientist at the Department of Geophysics, University of ChileJo Anne Van Tilburg, Archaeologist and the Director of the Easter Island Statue ProjectPilar Vicuña, Culture Programme Officer, UNESCO (Santiago de Chile),Production team: Presenter: Charmaine Cozier Producers: Lorna Reader and Jill Collins Production Co-ordinators: Liam Morrey and Tim Fernley Editor: Tara McDermott
