Podcasts about more harm

When you see a need, what do you do? Do you jump in and try to solve the problem? Or do you think about it for a while and workshop all the options and scenarios in your head before deciding whether to take action or not? Both ways can be valid, needed, and valuable. And both have their pitfalls. When we jump in to solve a need or problem, we can end up on a path to a crash course in humble pie and hard learnings on the go that can often do harm to others. Yet thoughtful consideration can often lead to failing to take action and falling into complacency. Or even worse, you tap out all together because you feel like your voice, your vote, your time, or your resources will not make a difference.But we can't stop caring or tap out. The stakes are too high.My guest today challenges this complacency–especially right now when so much is at stake here in the United States.

Episode 7 of my "birth series" is here, where I will be highlighting topics surrounding birth, from drugs used during births, to different birthing practices that tend to happen in the new "medical birth model," I am going to break down those topics.In this episode I cover Ultrasounds, a hot topic that doesn't get enough attention.  Are ultrasounds really necessary? Do they statically do more good then harm? Are they statically medically necessary? Be sure to tune in and share with anyone you feel may get value from this show.

Jill Alanna Nixon is a Reiki Master teacher, Manifestation Coach and Shamanic Healing Arts Facilitator. Jill has a great deal of passion for helping people recover from patterns of trauma, coping mechanisms, and addiction. She helps people heal themselves by identifying limiting belief structures that can keep us unknowingly bogged down in looping cycles of habits and reactions that get in the way of the opportunity we have to create the lives of our dreams. We get into many of Jill's personal stories that led her to be able to surrender to the knowing that the world does conspire in our favor. Her journey stands as proof that if we allow ourselves to be still enough to listen to the signals we are constantly receiving, great shifts in our Reality can occur.  We break things down down into practical, nitty gritty advice on what manifestation is, how it works for and against us depending on how we choose to express ourselves in the world, and what type of self-work we need to invest in to begin creating our own realities.  I think by expressing a lot of both of our own personal backgrounds including moments of awakening, some of the shadow work we've done over the years, and examples of self-work leading into present day - we manage to deliver a conversation on this sometimes very spacey topic in really clear and simple terms that should make manifestation feel like a skill accessible to us all.  Show Notes: https://www.instagram.com/jillalannanixon/ (@JillAlannaNixon) on Instagram https://www.amazon.com/Bliss-Heros-Journey-Gary-Ramsey/dp/1976966256/ref=sr_1_1?crid=1DSARLCVW7ZTW&keywords=bliss+gary+ramsey&qid=1651578812&sprefix=bliss+gary%2Caps%2C157&sr=8-1 (Bliss by Gary Ramsey ) https://www.amazon.com/Body-Keeps-Score-Healing-Trauma/dp/0143127748/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=body+keeps&qid=1651578881&s=books&sr=1-1 (The Body Keeps the Score) https://www.amazon.com/Breaking-Habit-Being-Yourself-Create/dp/1401938094/ref=sr_1_1?crid=27CWTNDUJKT3T&keywords=breaking+the+habit+of+being+yourself&qid=1651578924&s=books&sprefix=breaking+the+habit+of+%2Cstripbooks%2C140&sr=1-1 (Breaking the Habit of Being Yourself by Joe Dispenza) https://www.thebalancedblonde.com/about/ (Balanced Blonde - manifested Lyme Healing) Time Markers: @Start - 8:45 Introductions  @8:45 - 18:06 Precursors to Manifestation - Knowing Thyself, Shedding Layers, and Personal Empowerment @18:06 - 42:05 Jill's Journey of Surrender and Trust - From Actress and Waitress to Spiritual Seeker and Healing Guide @42:05 - 53:25 The Totality of Reality - Being Ready to Invest in Something More than the Physical, and Confronting the Source of all Suffering  @53:25 - 1:01:22 Living in Altered States of Reality without Psychedelics, and Why Talk Therapy without Integration Work does More Harm than Good @1:01:22 - 1:17:04 Shadow Work 101: The Difference Between Temporary Relief and Permanent Transformation, and Why its Crucial Healing Comes to Us as a Feeling.  @1:17:04 - 1:35:24 Our Greatest Gifts Come from the Largest Adversities, and Reclamation of Your Childhood Soul Wisdom in Order to Embody Your Truth @1:35:24 - 1:51:36 Manifestation as Prayer with Gratitude, and Common Blockages & Obstacles to Manifesting Your Best Life @1:51:36 - Closing Thoughts 

The Hearing Matters Podcast discusses hearing technology (more commonly known as hearing aids), best practices, and a growing national epidemic - Hearing Loss. The show is hosted by father and son - Blaise Delfino, M.S., HIS, and Dr. Gregory Delfino, CCC-A. Blaise Delfino and Dr. Gregory Delfino treat patients with hearing loss at Audiology Services, located in Bethlehem and Nazareth, PA.In this episode, Blaise discusses over-the-counter hearing aids and Medicare benefits for hearing instruments with Michael Scholl, chief compliance officer and vice president of corporate relations at Starkey. The Beginning Talk of OTC hearing aids started back in 2016-2017 when President Trump signed the FDA Reauthorization Act. The FDA was to create an OTC category by August of 2020. In October,2021 the FDA finally released the draft of OTC hearing aid regulations that is available for public comment over the next 90 days. The public comment period concludes on January 18, of 2022. The FDA will take all of those public comments into account, and then promulgate a final rule. By summer of 2022, we will see a final OTC regulation, and it will go into effect 60 days after they finalize that rule.More Harm than Good?There are a few safety concerns about the OTC aids. The auditory industry, consumer groups and audiologists are asking for the aids to have a maximum output of 110 dB and a maximum gain of 25 dB. In the proposed regulation, the max output could get to 120 dB. The difference between 110 and 120 is significant and could cause damage to someone's hearing. Also, consumers need to clearly understand who and where there is enforcement over the hearing aids. Only those over 18 should be able to purchase these hearing aids.Medicare Coverage As Congress looks to pass the Build Back Better law, there are two things the hearing healthcare industry has to focus on. The first is to get Congress to get the bill in the best possible shape before it goes to a vote. Once it is passed, it goes to the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid will write part of the language of the law. There are a few items that are really important. First, a hearing aid is a prosthetic, not durable medical equipment. A hearing aid is not a cane, it's not a walker, it's not a one-time product. it's a medical device that is continually fine-tuned.  Number two is that the hearing aids are exempt from competitive bidding. And third is that an audiologist and a hearing instrument specialist can provide the help to Medicare recipient.Listen CarefullyThis fall, Starkey launched Listen Carefully. People can find out what's happening with Medicare coverage and OTC hearing instruments in Washington. The public comment period is happening now. People can write comments, and there are draft comments people can use and add their own thoughts. Starkey works very hard to educate legislators at the state and federal level. Michael encourages all audiology practices to get involved at the local level as well. Hearing healthcare is a non-partisan issue. Everyone everywhere wants people to understand that untreated hearing loss dramatically affects overall health.A New EraMichael says he believes one day soon that the hearing healthcare industry will no longer be on the defensive. He believes there will be more access to hearing healthcare and people in need of help will get it.

As I record this episode in late March 2020, the world is living through the Coronavirus crisis. Recently my wife and I were discussing the toilet paper shortage. I explained that the reason there isn't any toilet paper now is because the stores did not raise the price when they saw a surge in demand. She argued that price gouging during a crisis is wrong and immoral. I tried to explain why it is actually a good thing. Full disclosure: She was not convinced. Hopefully you will be after listening. We discuss some basic economic concepts like: What is a price and how do they fluctuate. Then we dive into the topic at hand - price gouging. This is followed by an examination of pandering politicians and price controls and the morality of price gouging. We wrap up the episode discussing the benefits of price gouging and whether or not these arguments hold up when a crisis is regional versus worldwide.

Alan P. Zelicoff, MD is the author of "More Harm than Good" and "Microbes: Are We Ready for the Next Plague". What is an epidemic and how does it differ from an "outbreak"? How is the next pandemic likely to occur and why is the next epidemic almost CERTAIN to occur? Would an intentional event such as a bioterrorism event seem different than an accidental or natural occurring event? How do we mitigate the threat of BOTH pandemics and bioterrorism? We will discuss all of this and more with Dr. Zelicoff today on IAQ Radio.
