Political analysts are thinking a lot these days about the rule of law: where it comes from, what sustains it, how it can break down. Those are hard enough questions in themselves. And, yet — they simplify away an important complexity. They assume that there is only one law that rules. As our guest today, Dr. Egor Lazarev – assistant professor of political science at Yale – points out to us, in many parts of the world, the question is not just whether the law will rule – it's also which of many legal orders will prevail. In his recent book State-Building as Lawfare: Custom, Sharia, and State Law in Postwar Chechnya, Egor studies a setting in which different legal systems have evolved over time and coexist side by side – with matters like marriage, divorce, and murder sometimes being adjudicated by state judges, sometimes by religious courts, and sometimes under customary rules.Egor first gives us a helpful primer on the Chechnyan civil wars and their central role in the making of Putin's Russia. We then talk with him about how customary law, Sharia law, and state law operate alongside each other in Chechnya and how those seeking the protection of the law decide which legal order to turn to. As Egor explains, Chechnya is far from unique in displaying what he calls “legal pluralism.” Scholars estimate, for instance, that over 60 countries formally recognize some form of customary or traditional law alongside state law.For the most part, this is a conversation about two things. First, we might expect that government actors would do all they can to suppress competing legal systems and ensure the primacy of state law. Why, then, do we sometimes see state leaders doing exactly the opposite? Egor tells us about the strategic conditions under which government officials will choose to intentionally strengthen customary or religious law relative to state law – and why a strategy that looks like it would diminish the power of state actors can actually enhance their legitimacy and authority.This is also a conversation about gender and the law. In his book, Egor argues that the core social divide at the center of legal pluralism is a gender cleavage. Many struggles over social control often revolve around the regulation of female sexuality, around marriage and divorce, property inheritance, and honor and shame – and the different legal orders handle these issues very differently. We talk with Egor about the gendered impacts of state, customary, and Sharia law and about why Chechen women – particularly in the wake of two brutal, socially disruptive civil wars – have been turning to the state judiciary far more than Chechen men.We hope you enjoy this conversation.

Between 304 and 589 CE, China was divided into rivaling regimes occupying North and South China. While the north was controlled by a series of non-Han Chinese peoples, ultimately culminating in the Xianbei Northern Wei, the south was ruled by ruling houses of Han Chinese descent. In this companion episode to the interview ith Scott Pearce on the Northern Wei, Professor Andrew Chittick joins us to discuss the Southern Dynasties, from their development, to their society and culture, to their relationship with their northern neighbor, and finally to their legacy. Contributors: Andrew Chittick: Andrew Chittick is the E. Leslie Peter Professor of East Asian Humanities and History at Eckerd College, St. Petersburg, FL. His research focuses on the culture of early south China and maritime trade relations with Southeast Asia.  He is the author of numerous articles and two full-length books: Patronage and Community in Medieval China: The Xiangyang Garrison, 400-600 CE (SUNY Press, 2010) and The Jiankang Empire in Chinese and World History (Oxford University Press, 2020). The latter book introduces a ground-breaking new perspective on the history and political identity of what is now south China in the early medieval period (3rd-6th centuries CE), including its evolving ethnic identity, innovative military and economic systems, and engagement with broader Sino-Southeast Asian and Buddhist cultures.  Yiming Ha: Yiming Ha is the Rand Postdoctoral Fellow in Asian Studies at Pomona College. His current research is on military mobilization and state-building in China between the thirteenth and seventeenth centuries, focusing on how military institutions changed over time, how the state responded to these changes, the disconnect between the center and localities, and the broader implications that the military had on the state. His project highlights in particular the role of the Mongol Yuan in introducing an alternative form of military mobilization that radically transformed the Chinese state. He is also interested in military history, nomadic history, comparative Eurasian state-building, and the history of maritime interactions in early modern East Asia. He received his BA from UCLA, his MPhil from the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, and his PhD from UCLA. He is also the book review editor for Ming Studies.

In this episode, Dr. Ettensohn draws on psychodynamic dimensional models of personality development to describe narcissism and NPD at the borderline level. Characterized by identity diffusion, blurred boundaries, and disrupted internal experience, borderline personality organization represents an "in between" level where the perceptions of the self and others float in and out of clear focus. This episode reviews the important concepts of personality style vs. organization, helping the viewer to understand what a personality disorder actually is and why all personality disorders share common features. It discusses the developmental arrests thought to underlie borderline organization and describes common defense mechanisms that characterize this level of object relations. Borderline-level NPD is then discussed using these concepts. The episode concludes with a discussion of treatment.   References: Berney, S., de Roten, Y., Beretta, V., Kramer, U., & Despland, J.-N.

I am aware of her original intent to describe that specific patient population. I also use the quote in the video to describe the emotional vulnerabilities that necessitate splitting. Although she was describing BPD specifically, I feel the quote also works for borderline organization in general. The intense emotional vulnerabilities and exposure to unprocessed experience reflect the absence of moderating internal capacities - "skin" so to speak.

Let's explore the historical development and cultural significance of blood magic. Blood has been used in magical rituals across civilizations, from Mesopotamian and Egyptian rites to Greco-Roman traditions, carrying powerful symbolism tied to life, death, and transformation. We explore the dual nature of blood as a source of vitality and renewal while also representing violence, sacrifice, and mortality. Drawing on key scholarly sources such as the works of Victor Turner, René Girard, and Walter Burkert, this episode examines blood's profound role in ancient and modern magical traditions, including Thelema, Satanic rituals, and chaos magic. Topics covered: - Defining blood magic and its ritual uses - Blood symbolism in Mesopotamian, Egyptian, and Greco-Roman traditions - Blood's duality in ancient and modern magical contexts - Medieval witchcraft, blood pacts, and the witch trials - Contemporary practices and ethical considerations CONNECT & SUPPORT

El panorama es sombrío, tormentoso, deprimente. Los nubarrones que cubren la ciudad están a punto de agrietarse y desencadenar una tormenta. Los edificios y el paisaje dan la impresión de estar en movimiento, conscientes de lo que se avecina. Algo está por suceder, y no augura nada bueno. Es así como El Greco, más allá de entregarnos un panorama, nos deja una marcada impresión de la ciudad española en que él se estableció en 1577, cumplidos ya treinta y seis años de edad, y donde vivió hasta su muerte en 1614. No se preocupa tanto por reproducirla cabalmente como por hacernos sentirla emocionalmente. Se trata de la «Ciudad Histórica de Toledo», inscrita en la lista del Patrimonio Mundial de la Humanidad en 1986, casi cuatro siglos después de que el Greco la plasmara en un lienzo.1 El cuadro se titula simplemente «Vista de Toledo», aunque también se le ha llamado «Toledo en una tormenta». Es uno de los primeros paisajes de la historia de la pintura, y tal vez el más famoso de todos. Y por esa «Vista de Toledo», a el Greco, a pesar de provenir de la isla de Creta, se le considera como el primer paisajista en la historia del arte español.2 Una de las preguntas acerca del paisaje es si el cielo presagia que va a llover, tal como han dado por sentado algunos escritores. Es posible que el oscuro trasfondo del cielo y el esparcimiento de las nubes sólo tengan la intención de representar un ambiente del todo impresionante. Pero como en esa época a la lluvia se le consideraba un regalo de Dios, pudiera ser que el Greco la estuviera presagiando como tal.3 Durante las décadas en que él vivió en Toledo, hubo muchas sequías que dieron como resultado cosechas pésimas, comenzando con las que sufrió la ciudad en sus primeros dos años de vivir allí. Eso explica la frecuencia de las ceremonias que se celebraron en la catedral para pedirle a Dios que mandara la lluvia.4 De modo que lo que pudiera interpretarse como un paisaje urbano sombrío y deprimente también puede considerarse como una respuesta de Dios a la oración.   Tarde o temprano, algo parecido sucede en el marco de la vida de cada uno de nosotros. Lo que al principio nos parece adverso, como una mala noticia sin nada que se vislumbre de bueno, puede a la postre resultar favorable. Tanto es así que hay varios dichos y refranes que lo afirman con relación al tema del mal tiempo atmosférico, entre ellos los siguientes: «Al mal tiempo, buena cara», «Tras la tormenta viene la calma» y «En cada nube hay un rayo de esperanza». Más vale que si estamos pasando por lo que al parecer es una verdadera tormenta, incluso una prueba que juzguemos insuperable, no se la atribuyamos necesariamente a Dios, sobre todo como si fuera un castigo. Veámosla más bien como lluvia en el pronóstico de nuestra vida que podemos interpretar a través del lente del pasaje bíblico que dice que «si amamos a Dios, Él hace que todo lo que nos suceda sea para nuestro bien».5 Pero primero asegurémonos de amarlo de todo corazón.

What is Qabalah? This is a scholarly exploration of Hermetic Qabalah, an esoteric tradition steeped in history and rich in spiritual practice. This detailed video presentation covers the evolution of Hermetic Qabalah from its origins in ancient Jewish mysticism through its adaptation in Christian and Renaissance thought to its pivotal role in contemporary Western esotericism. We start by defining Hermetic Qabalah and distinguishing it from Jewish Kabbalah and Christian Cabala, highlighting the unique blend of mysticism, philosophy, and theology that characterizes each form. Discover how figures like Giovanni Pico della Mirandola influenced the Christian reinterpretation of Kabbalistic ideas and how these ideas permeated Renaissance thought. The video further delves into the core structure of the Tree of Life, explaining its symbolic representation of the universe's spiritual and material aspects. Learn about the sefirot, the paths that connect them, and their implications for personal and spiritual development. We will also cover primary texts like the Zohar and Sepher Yetzirah, their historical significance, and their roles in the practice of Qabalah. Additionally, we explore the modern application of Hermetic Qabalah in traditions such as Thelema and its integration into practices like modern Witchcraft and the Golden Dawn system.

In this episode, Dr. Ettensohn draws on psychodynamic dimensional models of personality development to describe narcissism and NPD at the psychotic level. Characterized by compromised reality testing, symbiotic object relations, low integration between parts of the self, and the use of reality-distorting defense mechanisms, psychotic-level NPD represents both the least developmentally mature and most severe form of the disorder. This episode explains the spectrum of personality development, from psychotic to healthy. It then explains the psychotic personality organization in detail, providing descriptions of specific defense mechanisms utilized at this level. Finally, psychotic-level NPD is described.   Purchase Unmasking Narcissism: A Guide to Understanding the Narcissist in Your Life here: https://amzn.to/3nG9FgH   LISTEN ON APPLE PODCASTS: https://rb.gy/cklpum LISTEN ON GOOGLE PODCASTS: https://rb.gy/fotpca LISTEN ON AMAZON MUSIC: https://rb.gy/g4yzh8 VISIT THE WEBSITE: https://www.healnpd.org   Cited References: Berney, S., de Roten, Y., Beretta, V., Kramer, U., & Despland, J.-N.

On this Memorial Day, we are proud to introduce the newest limited series from the Institute for Religion, Media, and Civic Engagement and Axis Mundi Media. Miss Information is a podcast about how conspiracies and misinformation infiltrate wellness communities and religious spaces. Subscribe here: https://redcircle.com/shows/21b4b512-ceef-4289-b9fc-76f302f5bd22/episodes/3532f1b2-5f15-4302-82f6-8a281d676871 Misinformation is big news, but what does it mean and why does it matter? If misinformation is simply incorrect information, can it be solved simply by telling people the right answer?  In this episode, we learn how misinformation can prevent people from voting if they think they aren't eligible or can't vote by mail; how misinformation can convince people to take certain drugs to cure a disease even if it's not proven to be safe; and the ways misinformation can draw people into conspiracies like QAnon. But it's not as simple as dispelling all misinformation from our midst. That seems impossible. Rather, in dialogue with Dr. David Robertson from the Open University, what we will discover points to a different question: Why do people believe misinformation at all and what does it do for them? In other words, instead of focusing on what people believe, perhaps the phenomenon of misinformation directs us to ask what beliefs do - who they favor, who they put in power, who they marginalize, and who they leave vulnerable. And by understanding the mechanics, maybe we can mitigate the damage misinformation does to our public square.

Let's delve into one of your most important and longest running relationships - your relationship with food. Like all relationships, it's emotional. Dr. Jud Brewer joins us to discuss his new book The Hunger Habit:Why We Eat When We're Not Hungry and How to Stop. He shares how to practice mindfulness, replace judgment with curiosity, change your habits and cultivate a healthier relationship with food. Dr. Jud Brewer joins us from Rhode Island. _________________________ Bio Jud Brewer, MD, Ph.D. (“Dr. Jud”) is a New York Times best-selling author and thought leader in the field of habit change and the “science of self-mastery,” who blends over 20 years of experience with mindfulness training and a career in scientific research. He is passionate about understanding how our brains work, and how to use that knowledge to help people make deep, permanent change in their lives — with the goal of reducing suffering in the world at large. Dr. Jud is the director of research and innovation at Brown University's Mindfulness Center, where he also serves as an associate professor in Behavioral and Social Sciences at the School of Public Health and Psychiatry at the School of Medicine at Brown University. Additionally, he is the executive medical director of behavioral health at Sharecare, the digital health company helping people manage all their health in one place, and a research affiliate at Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Previously, Dr. Jud held research and teaching positions at Yale University and the University of Massachusetts' Center for Mindfulness. Read more about his research. As a psychiatrist and internationally known expert in mindfulness training for treating addictions, Dr. Jud has developed and tested novel mindfulness programs for habit change, including both in-person and app-based treatments for anxiety, emotional eating, and smoking (Unwinding Anxiety, Eat Right Now and Craving to Quit). Based on the success of these programs in the lab, he co-founded MindSciences, Inc. to create app-based digital therapeutic versions of these programs for a wider audience, working with individuals, corporations, and health systems to put effective, evidence-based behavior change guidance in the hands of people struggling with unwanted behaviors and “everyday addictions.” Sharecare, Inc. acquired MindSciences in 2020. Dr. Jud has also studied the underlying neural mechanisms of mindfulness using standard and real-time fMRI and EEG neurofeedback, adding to the understanding of the brain's “Default Mode Network” and the role of the posterior cingulate cortex (PCC) in self-referential thinking.  He regularly gives talks on the intersection of modern science and ancient meditative practices, helping to expose a modern audience to specific techniques and insights first discovered 2,500 years ago. He has published numerous peer-reviewed articles and book chapters, trained US Olympic athletes and coaches, foreign government ministers and corporate leaders. His work has been featured on 60 Minutes, TED, The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, The Today Show, TIME, The Washington Post, Forbes, CNN, BBC, NPR, and more. His work has been funded by the National Institutes of Health and American Heart Association, among others. In addition to The Hunger Habit: Why We Eat When We're Not Hungry and How to Stop, he is the author of The Craving Mind: From Cigarettes to Smartphones to Love, Why We Get Hooked and How We Can Break Bad Habits (New Haven: Yale University Press, 2017) and the New York Times best-seller, Unwinding Anxiety: New Science Shows How to Break the Cycles of Worry and Fear to Heal Your Mind (Avery/Penguin Random House, 2021). Dr. Jud and his wife Mahri live in Massachusetts where they enjoy biking, hiking, and meditating with their cats, Samson, Ananda and Julian of Norwich. ______________________ For More on Dr. Jud Brewer The Hunger Habit:Why We Eat When We're Not Hungry and How...

Most governments around the world – whether democracies or autocracies – face at least some pressure to respond to citizen concerns on some social problems. But the issues that capture public attention — the ones on which states have incentives to be responsive – aren't always the issues on which bureaucracies, agents of the state, have the ability to solve problems. What do these public agencies do when citizens' demands don't line up with either the supply of state capacity or the incentives of the central state?Our guest, Dr. Iza Ding, an Associate Professor of Political Science at Northwestern University, examines one way in which bureaucrats try to square this circle. In her recent book The Performative State: Public Scrutiny and Environmental Governance in China, Iza argues that state actors who need to respond but lack substantive capacity can instead choose to perform governance for public audiences. Iza explores the puzzling case of China's Environmental Protection Bureau or the EPB, a bureaucratic agency set up to regulate polluting companies. This issue of polluted air became a national crisis during the 2008 Beijing Summer Olympics when athletes were struggling to breathe let alone compete. Since then, Chinese citizens have been directing their pollution-related complaints to the EPB, which Iza found, has been given little power by the state to impose fines or shut down polluting factories. But that doesn't mean the civil servants working in this agency do nothing. Instead, Iza documents how and why they routinely deploy symbols, language, and theatrical gestures of good governance to give the appearance of dynamic action – all while leaving many environmental problems utterly unaddressed. We talk with Iza about how she uncovered these performative dynamics through months of ethnographic research in which she was embedded within a Chinese environmental protection agency. She also tells us about how she tested her claims using original media and public opinion data. Finally, we talk about how her findings about performative governance in the environmental space translates to China's COVID-19 response.Works cited in this episode:Beraja, Martin, et al.

Reports have emerged in recent weeks that a grave humanitarian crisis is unfolding in Nagorno-Karabakh, a contested region in present-day Azerbaijan that contains a large majority of Armenian residents. A prominent international lawyer, Luis Moreno Ocampo, in fact, maintains that “a Genocide is being committed” by Azerbaijani forces against Armenian residents. This episode of “Then & Now” features UCLA historian Sebouh Aslanian, who offers a rich account of the history of the region and the century-long conflict between Armenians and Azerbaijanis. He situates the tension against the backdrop of the rise and fall of empire—and analyzes the two wars that have engulfed the contested region since 1988 and that have led to the current dire crisis in Nagorno-Karabakh.  Sebouh Aslanian is professor of history and holds the Richard Hovannisian Endowed Chair of Modern Armenian History at the UCLA History Department, and is the inaugural director of the Armenian Studies Center at the Promise Armenian Institute.  He is an acknowledged expert in world history, Armenian history, Indian Ocean history, and early modern social and economic history. He is the author of the award-winning  From the Indian Ocean to the Mediterranean: The Global Trade Networks of Armenian Merchants from New Julfa, (Berkeley: University of California Press, 2011), and has published widely on early modern world and Armenian history, including his most recent book, Early Modernity and Mobility Port Cities and Printers across the Armenian Diaspora, 1512-1800 (New Haven: Yale University Press, 2023).

Fear plus uncertainty equals anxiety but uncertainty can also move us into a growth mindset. When there's a lot of uncertainty and we're really feeling down on our luck or really stressed out because of our finances; in those moments when we're really worried, take a deep breath, step back, and ask yourself if this worrying is helping. Because worrying makes our thinking brain go offline. What do we need to help us move forward? We need our thinking brain."  - Dr. Jud Brewer     In This Episode, Dr. Jud Brewer Uncovers: [1:30] How Worry & Anxiety Become Habits breathwork.io Dr. Jud Brewer Unwinding Anxiety by Dr. Jud Brewer 319 Dr. Jud Brewer The Craving Mind by Dr. Jud Brewer Eat Right Now app Craving To Quit Sharecare Mind Science Unpacking the new sciences of breaking worry and fear to heal your mind. Why anxiety, worry, and fear can actually become habits. Breaking down specifically how worry can be negatively reinforced over time until it becomes a habit. Examples of how our anxious thoughts become habits including one of his patients who avoided driving on the freeway. The research he has done to help people reduce their anxiety and the amazing results they have seen with his Unwinding Anxiety app vs prescribed medications. What it means to label a treatment, research, and trials as being clinically validated.   [11:30] The Source Of Modern Anxiety Exploring what the source of anxiety actually is for people in our modern-day society. Why fear-based learning is a survival mechanism that humans have wired in their brains. The fact that our cell phones are weapons of mass distraction and anti-survival mechanisms. Breaking down how anxiety is the combination of worry and fear. What happens to our thought process when we don't have certainty in a situation such as the COVID-19 pandemic. Exploring why our previous anti-anxiety or anti-habit strategies have failed in the past. How the brain is wired to create and follow habits that free up space for it to do other things. The learning strategy that is set up along with the process of building habit memory. How a reward hierarchy is created based on the habits we learn. The importance of checking in with ourselves to see if those habits are still rewarding to ensure we actually benefit from them. What negative prediction error is and why it happens when there's a deviation from what we expect [19:30] Unwinding Anxiety How you can unwind anxiety from specific, delayed gratification by finding out what is driving those behaviors. Why working on anxiety helped one of his clients effortlessly lose 100 pounds because he stopped stress eating. Exploring the fact that there really isn't any real evidence that willpower exists. How to practice delayed gratification to help you build good habits. 129 Gretchen Rubin Making sense of the connection between addiction and anxiety in order to let go of both and heal. Eric Kandel Breaking down our individual perceptions, illusions, levels of awareness, and the confrontation one must go through during the inner work. [31:30] Are You Addicted To Your Own Stress? How to transcend addiction, anxiety, and depression so that they no longer rule us anymore. Unpacking the question, “Which mind states are more rewarding?” Exploring how contracted and closed down people felt with each different mind state compared to feeling more open and expanded. Why adults who are addicted to their own stress hormones were once children who lived in unpredictable environments of overreaction, rage spirals, and fear. How Josh's addiction to stress has impacted his life as an entrepreneur, his new life in Austin, and now with a baby on the way. What steps to take to know if you are addicted to your own stress and then how to break free from it. Why it can feel strange once you break free from anxiety and no longer have anxious thoughts. Carol Dweck The difference between growth vs fixed mindset when it comes to new changes in your life. How you can become comfortable with the uncomfortable as you enter the growth zone. [40:00] How To Handle Worry & Stress What steps you can take if you're worried about the “next bad thing” that's going to happen to you. The power of changing our mindset and how we look at our life. How we use worry as a control mechanism of our lives to help us but it actually goes against our brain's ability to work well. Why anxiety and bad habits can be teaching tools for greater awareness and how to properly use them. Michael Pollan What happens to the body and mind when we are actually experiencing stress in the present moment. His research of the default mode network and exploring one of the hypotheses out there that this network syncs us with action. The idea out there that conscious awareness might happen a full half-second after our motor action does something. Exploring the contraction and expansion of self when we let go of stress or feel positive emotions such as love. [49:00] Practical Strategies To Navigate Uncertainty How to heal from financial stress and uncertainty that is creating so many wounds in our collective society. What steps you can do to separate your worry from your thinking. How uncertainty can move us into a growth mindset. The power of asking yourself, “Is my worrying helping me right now?” How you can step away from worrying and lean into the challenge that you are facing with your thinking brain turned on and with a growth mindset. In what capacity we can look at the obstacles we're facing as a gift and something beautiful. The power of picking out what you can control and doing something that's meaningful for you and your family regardless of traumas and circumstances. 3 powerful steps you can take to navigate uncertainty and worry. The beauty of fostering kindness and curiosity in order to help us expand and let go of stress. Loving kindness meditation guided by Dr. Jud Brewer How to use kindness to create connection during crisis Dr. Jud Brewer on using mindfulness to ease worry and anxiety Why curiosity is a superpower and even more important than being brave. breathwork.io M21 Wellness Guide Wellness + Wisdom Community Leave Wellness + Wisdom a Review on Apple Podcasts Power Quotes From The Show Learn From Anxiety "'What can you learn from anxiety? If you lean into your hardships and challenges to get something out of them, they can actually be quite rewarding in the sense that you've grown and become more resilient.' - Dr. Jud Brewer How The Brain Builds New Habits "Remember our old brain is set up to help us survive. In addition to reward-based learning, it has another trick up his sleeve. It takes what it learns and moves the learning into muscle memory as soon as it can. In other words, our brains are set up to form habits so we can free up brain space to learn new things."  - Unwinding Anxiety by Dr. Jud Brewer Why Worry Can Be A Powerful Teacher "Inevitably life goes on and things are constantly changing and we have no control over the future. So, those feelings of uncertainty and wondering when the shoe is going to drop have been described as ways that make us feel like we're in control because at least we're doing something about it by worrying. However, worrying doesn't help and it actually makes our brain work less well. Try to see anything that isn't going well or isn't perfect as a learning experience. When your anxiety comes back up, what can you learn from it? If you lean into your hardships and challenges to get something out of them, they can actually be quite rewarding in the sense that you've grown and become more resilient." - Dr. Jud Brewer Moving Into A Growth Mindset "What do we need to do in today's age? We need to be able to think beyond our narrow sense because the world has changed a lot. It has had this seismic shift that's never going to go back and we don't even know what that's going to look like. So, ask yourself, what I am I getting from worrying? See if you can step out of the worry and lean into that challenge. I'm not saying this is easy but I'm saying this is what we can do, right? Lean into this and ask yourself how you can move into your growth mindset and what's possible for you right now."  - Dr. Jud Brewer Links From Today's Show  breathwork.io Unwinding Anxiety by Dr. Jud Brewer 319 Dr. Jud Brewer The Craving Mind by Dr. Jud Brewer Eat Right Now app Craving To Quit Sharecare Mind Science 129 Gretchen Rubin Eric Kandel Carol Dweck Michael Pollan Loving kindness meditation guided by Dr. Jud Brewer How to use kindness to create connection during crisis Dr. Jud Brewer on using mindfulness to ease worry and anxiety 'Habit Loops & Everyday Addictions' 'Tame Your Feelings of Anxiety' TED Talk | A simple way to break a bad habit | Judson Brewer Josh's Trusted Products | Up To 40% Off Shop All Products BREATHE - 20% off with the code “PODCAST20” Organifi –20% off with the code ‘WELLNESSFORCE' SEED Synbiotic - 30% off with the code "JOSHTRENT" BON CHARGE - 15% off with the code "JOSH15" MANNA Vitality - 20% off with the code "JOSH20" Mendi.io - 20% off with the code "JOSH20" SpectraSculpt - 15% off with the code "JOSH15" SaunaSpace - 10% off with the code "JOSH10" Cured Nutrition CBD - 20% off with the code "WELLNESS FORCE" PLUNGE - $150 off with the code “WELLNESSFORCE" LiftMode - 10% off with the code "JOSH10" HVMN Ketone-IQ - 20% off with the code "JOSH" MitoZen – 10% off with the code “WELLNESSFORCE” Paleovalley – 15% off with the link only NOOTOPIA - 10% off with the code "JOSH10" Activation Products - 20% off with the code “WELLNESSFORCE” SENSATE - $25 off with the code "JOSH25" ION - 15% off with the code ‘JOSH1KS' Feel Free from Botanic Tonics - $40 off with the code "WELLNESS40" Essential Oil Wizardry - 10% off with the code "WELLNESSFORCE" ALIVE WATERS - 33% off your first order with the code "JOSH33" DRY FARM WINES - Get an extra bottle of Pure Natural Wine with your order for just 1¢ Drink LMNT – Zero Sugar Hydration: Get your free LMNT Sample Pack, with any purchase Free Resources M21 Wellness Guide - Free 3-Week Breathwork Program with Josh Trent Join Wellness + Wisdom Community About Dr. Jud Brewer Dr. Jud is the Executive Medical Director of Behavioral Health at Sharecare, Director of Research and Innovation at the Mindfulness Center, and associate professor in psychiatry at the School of Medicine at Brown University, as well as a research affiliate at MIT.

We were recently invited to speak at the University of Connecticut's Annual Medieval Studies/ECE Outreach Seminar on a variety of subjects related to the Viking Age. We prepared and recorded our morning presentation on Slavery in the Viking Age as a Saga Brief so that everyone in our listening audience could enjoy. It's a subject Andy's been thinking about a lot as we've been working our way through Laxdaela Saga, which is why he took the lead on this topic. Later in the day, John presented on Viking Age board games, focusing on Nine Men's Morris and Hneftafl. We then led a conversation on the Saga of Ragnar Lothbrok and his Sons among other topics. Sadly, these afternoon sessions were workshops and thus not recorded. We hope you enjoy this little attempt at a live Saga Brief. The audio is not pristine, but it is pretty decent for a live recording. The questions from Q&A are a bit difficult to hear and had to be edited slightly. Apologies for the poor quality there. We'll use two mics next time. For those interested in learning more, here is a list of valuable research on the subject Andy used to prepare the Saga Brief: Brink, Stefan.

The fall of Beijing in 1644 did not immediately put an end to the Ming Dynasty. For almost half a century, Ming pretenders and loyalists in the south warred with the Manchus. One of the most prominent Ming loyalist factions was the Zheng family regime based in Fujian and Taiwan. Founded by the pirate-merchant Zheng Zhilong, the enterprise reached new heights under his son Zheng Chenggong, better known as Koxinga, who is best known for driving the Dutch out of Taiwan. This regime carried out the pro-Ming, anti-Manchu banner until it was finally defeated by the Qing in 1683. Joining me to talk about this fascinating regime is Professor Xing Hang of Brandeis University. He will cover the history of the regime from its rise to its fall, how it became so powerful, how and why Koxinga took over Taiwan, as well as what Ming loyalism meant to the Zhengs.  Contributors Xing Hang Professor Xing Hang is an Associate Professor of History at Brandeis University and a scholar of China and of the East Asian maritime world. His first project is about the Zheng organization in Taiwan, its role in seventeenth century East Asian maritime trade, and how it defined its legitimacy, and he has published extensively on the topic. His research on this topic has also greatly informed his more recent project, which is on Chinese communities in Southeast Asia from the seventeenth century to the twenty-first centuries.  Yiming Ha Yiming Ha is a Ph.D. candidate in the Department of History at the University of California, Los Angeles. His current research is on military mobilization and state-building in China between the thirteenth and seventeenth centuries, focusing on how military institutions changed over time, how the state responded to these changes, the disconnect between the center and localities, and the broader implications that the military had on the state. His project highlights in particular the role of the Mongol Yuan in introducing an alternative form of military mobilization that radically transformed the Chinese state. He is also interested in military history, nomadic history, comparative Eurasian state-building, and the history of maritime interactions in early modern East Asia. He received his BA from UCLA and his MPhil from the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology.

Lesson 11 Part 3 The Bible was clearly meant for those the first ones to hear it.  Like the Torah.  It was meant for the Hebrews coming out of Egypt.  The New Testament was written for the first disciples like John and Mark and Matthew and Paul and Mary.  And once we understand what the "first hearers" heard and understood, we then an see how it relates to us.  God gave them His word so they understood it and passed it down to us.  The Messianic Jewish believers lived in a Jewish culture 2000 years ago and they perhaps saw things and understood things a lot differently than us.  So we will again put the Bible in its historical context.  Once again we will study His word taking in account the ancient Jewish culture of those first disciples.  When we do and study the GREEK and not the English, we find there is a compelling alternative understanding to verses that supposedly suggest Jesus changed everything.  Contemporary theologians say that these verses show that Jesus changed the Sabbath from its Biblical practice to the way the "church" does it today.  The three verses we will study are shown below taken from the NASB version.  We will study these verses in their historical context.  When we do the view that Jesus changed, God changed, is seriously challenged.   VERSE 1 - Now concerning the collection for the saints, as I directed the churches of Galatia, so do you also. On the first day of every week each one of you is to put aside and save, as he may prosper, so that no collections be made when I come. When I arrive, whomever you may approve, I will send them with letters to carry your gift to Jerusalem; (1Co 16:1-3) VERSE 2 - On the first day of the week, when we were gathered together to break bread, Paul began talking to them, intending to leave the next day, and he prolonged his message until midnight. There were many lamps in the upper room where we were gathered together. And there was a young man named Eutychus sitting on the window sill, sinking into a deep sleep; and as Paul kept on talking, he was overcome by sleep and fell down from the third floor and was picked up dead. But Paul went down and fell upon him, and after embracing him, he said, "Do not be troubled, for his life is in him." When he had gone back up and had broken the bread and eaten, he talked with them a long while until daybreak, and then left. They took away the boy alive, and were greatly comforted. (Act 20:7-12) VERSE 3 - I, John, your brother and fellow partaker in the tribulation and kingdom and perseverance which are in Jesus, was on the island called Patmos because of the word of God and the testimony of Jesus. I was in the Spirit on the Lord's day, and I heard behind me a loud voice like the sound of a trumpet, saying, "Write in a book what you see, and send it to the seven churches: to Ephesus and to Smyrna and to Pergamum and to Thyatira and to Sardis and to Philadelphia and to Laodicea." (Rev 1:9-11) To continue your study on the Sabbath I strongly recommend the following books and resources ...

Does the Bible, specifically the New Testament, prove that Jesus changed the practices in Second Temple Judaism?  Did Jesus do away with the old law, the TORAH, and start a new Sabbath on Sunday?  It seems that if you study the New Testament in ENGLISH and separate it from the historical and ancient cultural context, the answer would be yes.  However, the Bible was clearly meant for those first disciples like John and Mark and Matthew and Paul and Mary.  God gave them His word so they understood it and passed it down to us.  So, one might say they are the first audience.  But, they are all Jewish, even Luke.  There is a strong argument that Luke was Jewish.  It isn't conclusive but very strong.  Check it out at this link - https://www.levitt.com/essays/luke Thus, these Jewish believers lived in a Jewish culture 2000 years ago and they perhaps saw things and understood things a lot differently than us.  For on thing we have proof that the early church, those first believers, met for the Sabbath on Friday evening to Saturday evening. (Paul F. Bradshaw and Lawrence A. Hoffman, The Making of Jewish and Christian Worship (Notre Dame, 1991).  And, CHRISTIAN HISTORY, "When did the Christian church switch the Sabbath from Saturday to Sunday?"   Link: https://www.christianitytoday.com/history/search/?query=issue%2037  ELESHA COFFMAN)   In Video 3 we will again put the Bible in its historical context.  Once again we will study His word taking in account the ancient Jewish culture of those first disciples, the first Messianic believers.  When we do and study the GREEK and not the English, we find there is a compelling alternative understanding to verses that supposedly suggest Jesus changed everything.  The three verses we will study are shown below take from the NASB version. Now concerning the collection for the saints, as I directed the churches of Galatia, so do you also. On the first day of every week each one of you is to put aside and save, as he may prosper, so that no collections be made when I come.

Jordan and Brandon talk with Jonathan Watson about his book on models of baptism, catechesis and communion. They cover topics like: What is baptism, catechesis and communion? What are the various models for how these relate? What is your preferred model and why? Which model deserves greater attention but has had the least popularity? What ways are there for Protestants (and Baptists) to think more deeply on this topic? What ways are there that they should change their practices?

Americans have coined the Korean War ‘the forgotten war' as it was largely overshadowed by both World War II and Vietnam. However, the Korean War is far from forgotten and the title is perhaps best bestowed upon the Philippine War, fought over a century ago from 1899 to 1902, and overshadowed by the Spanish-American War and World War I. Perhaps as a listener you are learning for the first time that the United States fought a war against the Philippines and are wondering ‘how did the United States get there?' Tune in and learn about the first and bloodiest battle of the Philippine War, the Battle of Manila (1899). You can find the HSMH community on all our socials via our linktree.

Media-eval ventures to Valholl as Sarah and returning guest Miti von Weissenberg tackle 2022 film The Northman! Join us as we explore masculinity, gender, slavery, race, and vengeance in the film and in the real Norse past. CW for discussion of sexual assault (which is not graphically depicted in the film but is thematically important) and for discussion of white nationalism (which is relevant to the audience response to the film and to attitudes toward the Vikings in general).

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is neither “artificial” nor “intelligent.” AI, and the tools as well as production of the virtual world, are made of real-world, three-dimensional resources: the raw material of Earth. Kate Crawford (2021) makes it clear that AI is “an extractive industry,” based on “highly energy-intensive infrastructures,” from the production and labor to the surveillance measures of corporate and governmental actors, aimed at total social control: “our sense of the cloud being out of sight and abstracted away, when in fact it is material, affecting the environment and climate in ways that are far from being fully recognized and accounted for.” In our minds, the digital space is immaterial. However, for example, Crawford notes that “Data centers are among the world's largest consumers of electricity.” She continues, “Thousands of people are needed to support the illusion of automation: tagging, correcting, evaluating, and editing AI systems to make them appear seamless.” Illusions regarding automation and AI provoke fantasies of a progressively liberal, democratic, and safe future based on the will to virtualization. Public relations campaigns have manufactured this utopian vision. What has been disguised is the maltreatment of labor within the supply chains of high-tech production. A case in point is the relationship between Foxconn and Apple. The Chinese manufacturer Foxconn, assembles iPhones, iPads, Macs, etc. for the largest and most profitable corporation in the world: Apple. Foxconn has one million workers. The labor practices and management systems of these factories for technological supply chains reads draconian. Specifically, in 2010, a dozen factory workers committed suicide based on the horrendous work conditions. The political suicides were largely completed by the individuals throwing themselves off upper levels of dormitory buildings they resided in. The working conditions of Foxconn and the stories of individual laborers is documented in the book, Dying for an iPhone: Apple, Foxconn, and The Lives of China's Workers. What has been learned is that “our beloved high-tech gadgets are not produced in a Silicon Valley paradise. Indeed, while designed in Silicon Valley, they are not produced there at all.” References: 45 and 219, Crawford, K. (2021).

In the study of 19th and 20th century Chinese history, there is often focus on the intense Christian missionary activities happening in China. Yet at the same time, members of China's Hui (or Sino-Muslim) community were also beginning to reconnect with their co-religionists overseas. Armed with knowledge of Arabic, Persian, and Urdu and trained in Western orientalist discourses in new religious schools overseas, these Hui scholars began to "rediscover" aspects of Islam and in the process rewrite the history of Islam in China both for audiences within China and for a non-Chinese audience overseas. In this episode, we are joined by Professor Nile Green of UCLA to talk about how and why these exchanges took place and some of the implications of these exchanges. Please also be sure to check out Professor Green's podcast "Akbar's Chamber" for monthly episodes on the history of Islam. Available on Apple Podcasts and all other major podcast platforms. Contributors Professor Nile Green Professor Nile Green is a Professor of History and the Ibn Khaldun Endowed Chair in World History at UCLA. He works on the Islamic history of Asia, the Middle East, Africa and Europe, publishing numerous monographs and articles and editing seven books on a wide range of topics related to the history of Islam. His recent research interest is on the global history of Islam and Muslims, focusing on intellectual and technological interchange between Asia and Europe; Muslim global travel writings; the transnational genealogy of Afghan modernism; and the world history of 'Islamic' printing. He was a founding director of UCLA's Program on Central Asia and serves on many association and editorial boards. He is also the host of Akbar's Chamber, a podcast that offers a non-political, non-sectarian and non-partisan space for exploring the past and present of Islam. Yiming Ha Yiming Ha is a Ph.D. candidate in the Department of History at the University of California, Los Angeles. His current research is on military mobilization and state-building in China between the thirteenth and seventeenth centuries, focusing on how military institutions changed over time, how the state responded to these changes, the disconnect between the center and localities, and the broader implications that the military had on the state. His project highlights in particular the role of the Mongol Yuan in introducing an alternative form of military mobilization that radically transformed the Chinese state.

For a long time, Ray Huang's influential book 1587: A Year of No Significance has colored our imagination of the Late Ming, painting the Ming as a state that was stagnant and in decline. Traditional historiography usually focuses on the poor finances of the Ming state, its inability to pay troops, its poor military performance against the peasant rebels and the Manchus, and its factionalism. While all these are true to an extent, more recent scholarships have also uncovered another side to the late Ming - one of military success and military innovation. Professor Kenneth Swope, an expert on Ming military history and author of numerous monographs and articles on the topic, joins us to talk about these new narratives of the late Ming's successes and failures. Contributors Professor Kenneth Swope Professor Kenneth Swope is a Professor of History & Senior Fellow of the Dale Center for the Study of War & Society at the University of Southern Mississippi. He is an expert on Chinese military history, particularly Ming military history and has published numerous monographs, articles, and book chapters on the topic. His major publications include A Dragon's Head and a Serpent's Tail: Ming China and the First Great East Asian War, 1592-1598, The Military Collapse of China's Ming Dynasty, 1618-1644, and On the Trail of the Yellow Tiger: War, Trauma, and Social Dislocation in Southwest China During the Ming-Qing Transition. In addition, he serves as the book review editor for The Journal of Chinese Military History and is a member of the Board of Directors for the Chinese Military History Society. Yiming Ha Yiming Ha is a Ph.D. candidate in the Department of History at the University of California, Los Angeles. His current research is on military mobilization and state-building in China between the thirteenth and seventeenth centuries, focusing on how military institutions changed over time, how the state responded to these changes, the disconnect between the center and localities, and the broader implications that the military had on the state. His project highlights in particular the role of the Mongol Yuan in introducing an alternative form of military mobilization that radically transformed the Chinese state. He is also interested in military history, nomadic history, comparative Eurasian state-building, and the history of maritime interactions in early modern East Asia. He received his BA from UCLA and his MPhil from the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology.

TRANSCRIPT HERE   Maz and Steph finally present to you the magnum opus of podcast content about Mental Illness in film. They watched both versions of telemovies Sybil, and now you don't have to. That, is the 1976 version starring Sally Field and Joanne Woodward, and the 2007 version starring Jessica Lange and Tammie Blanchard. (Our cover image contains the font they used in that 2007 version, which is harmful to my soul).  Get your ears prepped as we unpack the true story which inspired Sybil, and the cultural impact it had on diagnoses of Multiple Personality Disorder, which was since renamed Dissociative Identity Disorder, and all the ins and outs of what DID is and dissociation itself. PLEASE note trigger warning, this one is a bit of a trauma minefield. CONTENT WARNING: severe child abuse, including sexual and physical violence and rape, and emotional abuse, suicide, self harm, PTSD, substance use, anxiety, panic attack, ableism, unethical therapeutic behaviour, sexism, miscarriage/death of newborn, violent death, transphobia NOTE: This podcast is not designed to be therapeutic, prescriptive or constitute a formal diagnosis for any listener, nor the characters discussed. The host is not representative of all psychologists and opinions stated are her own personal opinion, based on her own learnings and training (and minimal lived experience). Host and co-hosts do not have the final say and can only comment based on their own perspectives, so please let us know if you dispute any of these opinions – we are keen for feedback!

Description: Dr. Jud Brewer, psychiatrist and neuroscientist, joins me on the show to discuss the epidemic of anxiety in our society, how to understand anxiety as a learned (and therefore unlearnable) habit, and the role mindfulness practice can play in "busting" these conditioned loops in our brains. About Jud: Jud Brewer MD PhD is a thought leader in the field of habit change and the "science of self-mastery", having combined over 20 years of experience with mindfulness training with his scientific research therein. He is the Director of Research and Innovation at the Mindfulness Center and associate professor in Behavioral and Social Sciences and Psychiatry at the Schools of Public Health & Medicine at Brown University. He also is a research affiliate at MIT. A psychiatrist and internationally known expert in mindfulness training for addictions, Brewer has developed and tested novel mindfulness programs for habit change, including both in-person and app-based treatments for smoking, emotional eating, and anxiety. He has also studied the underlying neural mechanisms of mindfulness using standard and real-time fMRI and EEG neurofeedback. He has trained US Olympic athletes and coaches, foreign government ministers, and his work has been featured on 60 Minutes, TED (4th most viewed talk of 2016, with 14+ Million views), Time magazine (top 100 new health discoveries of 2013), Forbes, BBC, NPR, Al Jazeera (documentary about his research), Businessweek and others. His work has been funded by the National Institutes of Health, American Heart Association, among others. Dr. Brewer founded MindSciences to move his discoveries of clinical evidence behind mindfulness for anxiety, eating, smoking and other behavior change into the hands of consumers (see www.drjud.com for more information). He is the author of The Craving Mind: from cigarettes to smartphones to love, why we get hooked and how we can break bad habits (New Haven: Yale University Press, 2017).
