Day 2 of your 7-Day Neurocycle Reset is REST — the recovery point your brain needs to calm down, integrate what you noticed yesterday, and regain clarity. Yesterday's arc was Release. Today, we practice resting on purpose: slowing down your nervous system so you can respond with intention instead of reacting on autopilot. In this episode you'll: Use gentle rest to reduce mental noise Anchor into today's affirmation: "Clarity and calm begin with each next step." Leave with one tiny, doable next step you can repeat anytime Best time to listen: midday overwhelm, evening wind-down, or whenever you feel mentally "spun up." This is day 2 of a 7-day meditation series, "7-Day Neuro Reset to Calm Your Nervous System," episodes 3444-3450. ABOUT THIS WEEK'S MEDITATION JOURNEY: Welcome to a brand-new 7-day series on the Daily Meditation Podcast: Neuro Reset—created for that very real moment when the New Year is still here… but your nervous system is already asking for a gentle reboot. Because Week 3 can be a turning point. The excitement of fresh starts fades, your routines get a little wobbly, and your mind starts opening extra tabs: What if I'm behind? What if I can't keep this up? What if I need to start over? If you've felt that, you're not doing anything wrong. It's simply your brain and body recalibrating. This week is designed to help you reset from the inside out—with short, practical meditations that support emotional balance, stress relief, clearer focus, better sleep, and a steadier mood. We'll work with simple tools that calm the nervous system and help you come back to yourself—again and again—without pressure. Each day has an arc and a focus, and today we begin with the arc of Release—releasing mental clutter, tension, and the "I should be doing more" energy… so you can feel lighter, clearer, and more supported moving forward. So settle in. You don't have to force calm. You're simply practicing a reset—one breath at a time. THIS WEEK'S CHALLENGE - "The 7-Day Neurocycle Reset Challenge" Every day: 10 minutes (2 minutes breath + 6 minutes guided Neurocycle step + 2 minutes journaling). THIS WEEK'S MEDITATION JOURNEY Day 1: Refresh Visualization Day 2: Affirmation: "Clarity and calm begin with each new step." Day 3: Coherent Breathing: Inhale ~5 seconds, exhale ~5 seconds (no holds), for 3–5 minutes. Why: A steady rhythm is one of the simplest ways to "reset the system." Day 4: Gyan Mudra for clarity Day 5: Fourth Chakra for compassion Day 6: Neuro Reset Flow meditation, combining the week's techniques Day 7: Weekly review meditation and closure Welcome to this special series: Refresh — a gentle, powerful reset for the start of a brand new year. If you've been craving that clean-slate feeling—not just on your calendar, but inside your mind and in the way you live—this is for you. Because a new year isn't only a date. It's an invitation. To clear what's been cluttering your inner space… to come back to what matters… and to choose how you want to feel as you move forward. Over the next seven episodes, we're going to refresh seven key areas of your life—not with pressure, perfection, or a long list of goals… but with inner clarity. Think of this series like opening the windows of your life and letting fresh air move through every room. Each day, we'll focus on one area—simple, practical, and deeply supportive. You'll be guided through: a short, grounding insight to create perspective a few reflective prompts to clarify what's true for you right now and a calming meditation to help you integrate the shift—so this becomes something you feel, not just something you think about This isn't about fixing yourself. You're not behind. You don't need to become someone else to have a meaningful year. This is about coming home to yourself—and gently updating the way you live, so your days match the person you're becoming. So wherever you are—making coffee, sitting in your car, walking outside, or curled up in a quiet corner—take a breath and let this be your beginning. Welcome to your refresh. Let's start the year with clarity… and create a life that feels clean, aligned, and truly yours. SHARE YOUR MEDITATION JOURNEY WITH YOUR FELLOW MEDITATORS Let's connect and inspire each other!

Zibby interviews #1 New York Times bestselling author Leigh Bardugo and World Fantasy Award winner John Picacio about THE INVISIBLE PARADE, a stunningly original and lushly illustrated picture book about grief, memory, and finding connection through loss, set on the night of Día de Muertos. The two talk about their long-standing friendship, the chance meeting at a convention that led to this creative collaboration, and how the book blends myth, color, culture, and imagination to help process death in an honest, hopeful way. They also explore storytelling as a tool for remembrance, the influence of Día de Muertos, and why this book is as much for grown-ups as it is for kids.Purchase on Bookshop: https://bit.ly/4jvTrCPShare, rate, & review the podcast, and follow Zibby on Instagram @zibbyowens!** Check out the Z.I.P. membership program—Zibby's Important People!

Can you legally use music, TV clips, or radio audio in your podcast, or is it a fast track to takedowns and trouble?In this episode, we unpack how copyright actually works for podcasters. What fair use really means, why it is a legal defence rather than permission, and where creators most often get caught out. We look at the practical risks, including automated copyright detection, platform removals, and takedown requests from rights holders.A quick note before you listen: we are not lawyers. This episode is based on our experience and understanding of how copyright is applied in practice, not legal advice. If you plan to rely on a fair use defence, you should understand the risks involved and make that call deliberately.Our conversation also widens into modern podcasting workflows. We discuss why video podcasts still need to work as audio-first shows, how many “video listeners” are actually listening in the background, and how relying on visuals can quietly break the experience for most of your audience.MentionedWhere to Get Podcast MusicThe Maono PD200W Hybrid Mic (affiliate link)The One Essential Rule Video Podcasters Can't IgnoreGuardian piece on some video podcasts making for bad audio experiencesPodcraft is brought to you by Alitu and The Podcast Host
The conversation covers the historical emergence of Algeria as a political and territorial unit, starting in the Ottoman period in the 16th century. Key pivotal moments in Algerian history are highlighted, including French colonialism beginning in 1830, which led to a settler colonial project, the rise of the modern mass nationalist movement in the interwar period, the War of National Liberation (1954–1962), and the decade of violence in the 1990s. The latter half of the conversation focuses on the "Worlds of Islam," emphasizing a polycentric history with no single center. A historian, professor at the University of Oxford, and author of books "A History of Algeria" and "The Worlds of Islam: A Global History", James McDougall details the diverse "technologies" of Islam's spread, including its compelling initial mission, the appeal of social mobility for non-Arabs, trade networks, and the influence of Sufism. He also discusses the historical roots of Islamophobia, which is traced to the 19th-century colonial moment. He discusses why he was drawn to studying Algeria, a country he notes is often ignored in Middle East studies and is known as "the land of a million martyrs" for its iconic history of resistance to colonialism. 0:00 Introduction2:08 Intellectual Curiosity and Addressing Poor Understanding of the Region7:37 When Did Algeria Begin to Exist?

Originally presented in La Jolla, CA on April 24, 1994, this recording is the result of our work digitizing over 600 cassette tapes of Elisabeth's talks. Each tape is decades old and the quality of the recordings varies quite a bit from tape to tape. As we preserve Elisabeth's legacy, we will share as much of her work as possible, even when technical issues affect the quality of the audio. Each talk is unique in content and tone. All are a blessing and encouragement. --- Music by John Hanson

In this guided meditation, you'll anchor to one simple point—your breath or sound—and practice returning gently, again and again. No forcing. No fixing. Just releasing the noise and making space to feel more like yourself. Come as you are. All you have to do is listen… and release. This is day 1 of a 7-day meditation series, "7-Day Neuro Reset to Calm Your Nervous System," episodes 3444-3450. ABOUT THIS WEEK'S MEDITATION JOURNEY: Welcome to a brand-new 7-day series on the Daily Meditation Podcast: Neuro Reset—created for that very real moment when the New Year is still here… but your nervous system is already asking for a gentle reboot. Because Week 3 can be a turning point. The excitement of fresh starts fades, your routines get a little wobbly, and your mind starts opening extra tabs: What if I'm behind? What if I can't keep this up? What if I need to start over? If you've felt that, you're not doing anything wrong. It's simply your brain and body recalibrating. This week is designed to help you reset from the inside out—with short, practical meditations that support emotional balance, stress relief, clearer focus, better sleep, and a steadier mood. We'll work with simple tools that calm the nervous system and help you come back to yourself—again and again—without pressure. Each day has an arc and a focus, and today we begin with the arc of Release—releasing mental clutter, tension, and the "I should be doing more" energy… so you can feel lighter, clearer, and more supported moving forward. So settle in. You don't have to force calm. You're simply practicing a reset—one breath at a time. THIS WEEK'S CHALLENGE - "The 7-Day Neurocycle Reset Challenge" Every day: 10 minutes (2 minutes breath + 6 minutes guided Neurocycle step + 2 minutes journaling). THIS WEEK'S MEDITATION JOURNEY Day 1: Refresh Visualization Day 2: Affirmation: "Clarity and calm begin with each new step." Day 3: Coherent Breathing: Inhale ~5 seconds, exhale ~5 seconds (no holds), for 3–5 minutes. Why: A steady rhythm is one of the simplest ways to "reset the system." Day 4: Gyan Mudra for clarity Day 5: Fourth Chakra for compassion Day 6: Neuro Reset Flow meditation, combining the week's techniques Day 7: Weekly review meditation and closure Welcome to this special series: Refresh — a gentle, powerful reset for the start of a brand new year. If you've been craving that clean-slate feeling—not just on your calendar, but inside your mind and in the way you live—this is for you. Because a new year isn't only a date. It's an invitation. To clear what's been cluttering your inner space… to come back to what matters… and to choose how you want to feel as you move forward. Over the next seven episodes, we're going to refresh seven key areas of your life—not with pressure, perfection, or a long list of goals… but with inner clarity. Think of this series like opening the windows of your life and letting fresh air move through every room. Each day, we'll focus on one area—simple, practical, and deeply supportive. You'll be guided through: a short, grounding insight to create perspective a few reflective prompts to clarify what's true for you right now and a calming meditation to help you integrate the shift—so this becomes something you feel, not just something you think about This isn't about fixing yourself. You're not behind. You don't need to become someone else to have a meaningful year. This is about coming home to yourself—and gently updating the way you live, so your days match the person you're becoming. So wherever you are—making coffee, sitting in your car, walking outside, or curled up in a quiet corner—take a breath and let this be your beginning. Welcome to your refresh. Let's start the year with clarity… and create a life that feels clean, aligned, and truly yours. SHARE YOUR MEDITATION JOURNEY WITH YOUR FELLOW MEDITATORS Let's connect and inspire each other!

The Akashic Records, also known as the "Book of Life", are a vast storehouse of information and Universal guidance. As their name implies, the Records "record" all of our deeds, actions, choices, etc across all dimensions of time and space. As a Divine tool, the Records give you access to higher consciousness, quantum healing, and powerful life-changing insights. And the best thing - EVERYONE has the Divine birthright to access and read the Akashic Records, under certain ethical guidelines and with a clean and pure intention. In this episode of INNER WORK, we'll explore: how the Akashic Records can help you shift your perspective and shed "human density" why we sometimes believe we won't be able to access the Records, or that we don't have the necessary gifts or intuition (including the false belief that we have to be "psychic" to read the Records) overcoming the negative conditioning & limiting beliefs that prevent you from tapping as FULLY as you can into the Akashic Field reclaiming your inherent worthiness, deep intuition, and ability to connect to Divine Source ANY time Watch this as a video episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/7vlEFG_ip7A ******* Get the FREE Akashic Records Mini Course + weekly newsletter: https://josephinehardman.com/akashic-records-intro/ Explore YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/@healer.josephine Follow on Instagram: https://instagram.com/healer.josephine Connect through my website: https://josephinehardman.com Thank you for being here, doing your inner work, and leading the way for others with your light.

Joseph S. Khan is an acclaimed digital marketing expert, AI and SEO strategist, and founder of Hum Jam. Celebrated for inventing the harmonic SEO formula, Joseph draws on a unique background combining formal music training (Berklee College of Music) with decades of digital entrepreneurship, including consulting for industry leaders like Microsoft and John Maxwell. His approaches help businesses and agencies synchronize their online presence, climb search rankings, and thrive amidst rapid technological change. With 3500+ Udemy students and a track record of agency training, Joseph empowers clients to harmonize content, citations, and signals for enduring relevance. In this episode of Marketer of the Day, host Robert Plank talks with Joseph S. Khan about transforming chaotic digital environments into marketing harmony. He shares how musical principles inspired his harmonic blueprint in SEO and now inform his revolutionary AI methods. The discussion dives deep into why industry-specific directories and authoritative citations matter far more than old-school backlink tactics, the importance of Google's E-E-A-T algorithm, and why email-driven engagement signals help content get indexed and trusted. Joseph debunks SEO myths, details nitty-gritty steps for dominating AI search results (like ChatGPT and Perplexity), and offers take-action advice for agencies and individuals who want sustainable growth. Quotes: “SEO is like music; when your content, citations, and signals harmonize, both AI and audiences start paying attention.” “Visibility isn't built on volume. It's built on the right citations and a clear, authoritative presence in your niche.” “In a post-E-E-A-T world, authority, trust, and real experience aren't optional; they're the price of being found.” Resources: Follow Joseph Skahn on Facebook Connect with Joseph Skahn on LinkedIn Boost Your Online Visibility with HumJAM—Preferred Choice of Top SEO Agencies

660. Today we're joined by writer and cultural historian Brian Fairbanks, author of “Wizards: David Duke, America's Wildest Election, and the Rise of the Far Right.” In this book, Fairbanks delivers a vivid account of David Duke's 1991 run for governor of Louisiana — a campaign that shocked the country and revealed how extremist politics could slip into the mainstream. Through sharp reporting and a storyteller's eye, he reconstructs the chaos, the media frenzy, and the deeper social tensions that made that election a turning point in modern American politics. Fairbanks brings that same clarity to a very different American saga in “Willie, Waylon, and the Boys: How Nashville Outsiders Changed Country Music.” Here he traces the rise of the outlaw movement, showing how Willie Nelson, Waylon Jennings, and their circle pushed back against Nashville's rigid studio system and reshaped the sound and soul of country music. He explores the rebellion, the artistry, and the cultural moment that allowed these musicians to redefine authenticity and leave a lasting imprint on American music. Beyond these two major works, Brian Fairbanks has built a reputation as a writer who connects individual stories to the larger forces shaping American life.

Heloise Hulse Cruzat wrote an article on the history of the Ursuline Nuns in New Orleans. You have been told in eloquent periods of the founding of New Orleans, of its subsequent development, and I am to be the humble interpreter of another intimate chapter of its history: THE SHARE WOMEN TOOK IN ITS ESTABLISHMENT. Can we mention the French colonial days without recalling the URSULINES, who by their unfaltering courage and their steady and efficient work, incorporated their history into that of our fair city. Bienville realized that New Orleans would never attain his dream of greatness without education, and especially such an education of the female youth as would give worthy wives and mothers to the colonists. With this end in view, he intrusted to the Jesuit, Father de Beaubois, the care of choosing these educators. How successfully this mission was accomplished by his selection of the Ursulines of Rouen, the two past centuries have demonstrated. A contract was signed by the Company of the Indies and the Ursulines, approved by brevet signed by Louis XV, and on February 22nd, 1727, Mother St. Augustin, Tranchepain, with eight professed nuns, a novice and two postulants sailed on the Gironde from L'Orient. This week in Louisiana history. January 9, 1877 Both Democrat Francis T. Nicholls and Republican Stephen B. Packard claim victory in election for governor; both take oath of office. This week in New Orleans history. Andrew Jackson arrived on board the steamer “Vicksburg” on January 8, 1840 at ten o'clock in the morning, landing at the Carrollton wharf, where an immense throng had assembled to welcome “the most distinguished citizen of the country.” The specific reason for his presence was that a cornerstone was to be laid, commemorating his victories in the Battle of New Orleans, a quarter of a century before. General Jackson laid the cornerstone in the Place d'Armes, on January 9, 1840. It was not until some years later that the monument decided upon was the one of Jackson, designed by Clark Mills, which stands in the center of the ancient parade grounds for the troops. This statue has been called the “center piece of one of the finest architectural sittings in the world.” (NOPL) This week in Louisiana. January 10, 2026.

Enjoy this week's highlights of The Mens Room!
In this final meditation of the Refresh Your Life series, you're invited to slow down and reflect back over your week—not to judge what you did or didn't do, but to witness what shifted inside you. Because real transformation isn't always loud. Often, it's quiet: a softer nervous system, a clearer yes, a gentler no, a stronger sense of what matters. This guided practice helps you revisit the seven areas you refreshed and notice the small wins: the moments you chose clarity over chaos, presence over pressure, alignment over autopilot. You'll be guided through a calm body scan, a gratitude-based reflection, and a simple visualization of your next steps—so you can carry the reset forward without losing it in the busyness of life. Most importantly, this meditation closes the series with the message that makes growth sustainable: you get to evolve at your own pace. No rushing. No forcing. Just steady becoming—one breath, one choice, one day at a time. This is day 7 of a 7-day meditation series, "Refresh: A Gentle Reset for a Brand New Year," episodes 2819-2825. ABOUT THIS WEEK'S MEDITATION JOURNEY: THIS WEEK'S CHALLENGE - "A Brand New Approach" This week's challenge offers you a way to experience a life refresh.

As we celebrate the 15th anniversary of the Beast Quake, we're also highlighting the season's recent success with the Seahawks run game. Our guest, Coach Derek of All 22 Films, breaks down the key factors driving the ground game's surge. Is Klint Kubiak finally leaning into the strengths that both Kenneth Walker and Zach Charbonnet provide to the offense? Additionally, Coach Derek provides insights on a near-perfect blocking execution that have Grey Zabel and Jalen Sundell getting to the second level of the defense. The coach explains a wham trap concept that also features a nice block by Robbie Ouzts. Join our Sea Hawkers Podcast Pickem League - free prizes for weekly winners. Support the show Get in the Flock!

What you listen to literally shapes your inner dialogue and your inner dialogue becomes your outward reality. In this video, Kelly Cardenas breaks down how God's voice can be the ultimate jam in your head and why Proverbs 10 proves that wisdom on repeat joy, integrity, and life that actually works.This morning, Maddox was grooving in the kitchen, reciting lyrics like it was a mini concert. And it hit me—I can't remember a single thing from school, but I can spit Eazy-E like a pro. Why? Repetition sticks. We remember what's on heavy rotation.So what if wisdom could be the soundtrack of our lives?Proverbs 10 drops these truths like beats:Doing right always pays off even if no one clapsDiligence works; laziness never hitsA good name is more valuable than goldIntegrity builds a foundation that doesn't wobbleSpeaking life spreads joy like wildfireWisdom accepted? Instant life upgradeWhen God's voice becomes music to our ears, joy overflows. Even when life looks messy, He's working behind the scenes. What you treasure determines your seat time—and your seat time determines your harvest.Here's the kicker: Your inner dialogue is formed by what you actually listen to. So maybe the shift isn't complicated—it's intentional. Choose wisely what becomes the soundtrack of your life.Because wisdom isn't just heard—it's lived. And when God's voice is on repeat, joy isn't just optional—it's inevitable.Inchstones-The Vibe within bookhttps://a.co/d/4CYg4vGRegister for The VIBE Roomhttps://www.eventcreate.com/e/the-vibe-room-copy-326261-7854e4Join the VIBE communityhttps://thevibebykellycardenas.substack.com?r=4nn6y5&utm_medium=ios

Amidst the unceasing murderous march of capitalist imperialism and its transformation into new fascisms, the mantra of the revolutionary is to become organised, either by founding or joining a revolutionary organisation such a party, in order to establish a political organ for the proliferation of capitalism's overthrow. In this episode, Adam is joined by Elane Heffernan and David Renton to discuss a case of revolutionary organisation and its failure which still shapes the ecosystem of revolutionary activity in the UK today: the Socialist Worker's Party or SWP, and the culture of abuse that led to its decline . The SWP was Britain's largest Marxist organisation until 2013, when the central committee's shameful treatment of women who accused one of its leadership, "Comrade Delta", of sexual assault led to an exodus of members and the discrediting of their structures and methods. In this episode, we discuss their experienced during this scandal and how it arose from the SWP's internal culture, and what radicals can learn from the failures of the UK's largest Far-Left Party. David's history of the scandal, "Comrade Delta" containing over 50 interviews with members and ex-members of the SWP, is out this July from Ebb books.Support the showSupport the podcast:Current classes at Acid Horizon Research Commons (AHRC): https://www.acidhorizonpodcast.com/ahrc-mainWebsite: https://www.acidhorizonpodcast.com/Linktree: https://linktr.ee/acidhorizonAcid Horizon on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/acidhorizonpodcast Boycott Watkins Media: https://xenogothic.com/2025/03/17/boycott-watkins-statement/ Subscribe to us on your favorite podcast: https://pod.link/1512615438Merch: http://www.crit-drip.comSubscribe to us on your favorite podcast platform: https://pod.link/1512615438 LEPHT HAND: https://www.patreon.com/LEPHTHANDHappy Hour at Hippel's (Adam's blog): https://happyhourathippels.wordpress.comSplit Infinities (Craig's Substack): https://splitinfinities.substack.com/Music: https://sereptie.bandcamp.com/ and https://thecominginsurrection.bandcamp.com/

MTV’s “music” era is officially over, so Bobby and Eddie rewind to how it all started and why it mattered way beyond just music videos. Bobby takes you back to the first video that kicked the whole thing off, then breaks down how MTV became the ultimate tastemaker: the place that could turn a song into a moment and an artist into a star overnight. Along the way, they ran through the MTV staples that defined a generation from must-see countdowns, late-night weirdness, the shows everyone talked about at school the next day and how the network slowly shifted from music to something else entirely. It’s part nostalgia, part pop culture history, and a rapid-fire tour of the most unforgettable MTV memories through Bobby and Eddie’s eyes.

Welcome back to the digital wasteland, fellow survivors. We kick things off in the FOLLOW UP by marking a year since the LA Fires—hello, PTSD—alongside a 4th Strokiversary and three years of sobriety, all while wondering why America is currently obsessed with shooting its own civilians in the face.In the IN THE NEWS segment, Wired is finally teaching us how to protest safely in the age of surveillance, and the EFF is cheering on the hackers fighting ICE's Nazi-adjacent tracking tactics. Meanwhile, Meta is harvesting your AI chats for targeted ads, Disney is paying $10 million for spying on kids, and Grok has spent the holidays generating nonconsensual child abuse material—a problem Elon Musk won't have to legally reckon with until the Take It Down Act hits in May. Instagram's Adam Mosseri has basically surrendered to the AI "slop", suggesting we fingerprint "real" media because the fake stuff has already won the war.As we continue the descent, OpenAI is launching a ChatGPT Health portal despite their "loser energy" and compute limits, while Character.AI and Google are quietly settling lawsuits for bots that encouraged teen suicide. Polymarket gamblers are learning that "decentralized" juries will fist you over the definition of an "invasion" just as fast as a bank. Uber showed off a new Lucid-based robotaxi, but we're pumping the brakes on the safety hype given that autonomous vehicles are five times more likely to crash at dusk. To wrap up the news, Tim Cook took home $74 million last year, which is a lot of "systematic philanthropy" he could be doing right now instead of just writing checks to his own ego.In MEDIA CANDY, we're suffering through the Stranger Things wrap-up and a John McTiernan holiday marathon, though the real highlight is MTV Rewind's tribute to music videos. We've got Traitors, The Pitt, and even a John Candy doc on the list, while APPS & DOODADS brings us the DJI Osmo 8, Victrola's turntable-vibrating speakers. At least California's DROP tool lets you purge your data from 500 brokers at once.Finally, we go to THE DARK SIDE WITH DAVE to hear Dave Bittner rant about holiday tech support, health insurance gouging, and Dave Filoni taking the Star Wars reins. We close out with a look at ILM's 50th, the deepfake porn cesspool formerly known as Twitter, and a birthday toast to the Starman himself, David Bowie.Sponsors:CleanMyMac - Get Tidy Today!

Our guest this week hails from Tobias, Nebraska, a town of about 100 people. Evan Bartels is a singer-songwriter who with his 2017 debut, 'The Devil, God & Me,' burst onto the national scene. More recently, Bartels has expanded his audience with the release of his EP, 'To Make You Cry,' recorded after relocating to Nashville and reflecting on a period of personal upheaval and renewal. Bartels has toured with American Aquarium, The White Buffalo, and John Moreland; he records for MCA/Universal; and he's performed at Mile of Music, AmericanaFest, and the C2C Festival. 'No Depression' calls him "a haunting new presence in Americana," while Americana Highways praises his "unvarnished, soul-bearing songwriting." 'Glide Magazine' notes his "ability to turn bruised experience into stark, resonant beauty." I caught up with Evan Bartels a few months ago for The Working Songwriter to hear about his musical journey so far.
