Dr. Hoffman continues his conversation with UK-based science journalist and author Caroline Williams, author of “Inner Sense: How the New Science of Interoception Can Transform Your Health.”
In this episode of the Intelligent Medicine podcast, Dr. Ronald Hoffman explores the concept of interoception with UK-based science journalist and author Caroline Williams. They discuss her latest book, “Inner Sense: How the New Science of Interoception Can Transform Your Health.” The conversation details the intricate relationship between the mind and body, the importance of bodily self-awareness, and how it impacts mental and physical health. Williams shares insights from her extensive research and practical strategies for enhancing interoception, such as controlled breathing exercises and body scans. They also touch on future advancements and therapeutic applications in the realm of interoception, offering listeners a comprehensive understanding of this emerging science and its potential to revolutionize healthcare.
As we get older, have you ever wondered why the exercise advice we've been given doesn't seem to work as well as it once did? As we move into our 40s and beyond, our physiology changes in ways that can often feel confusing and frustrating. But what if we could harness those changes to feel stronger, healthier and more resilient than ever before? My guest this week is exercise physiologist and nutritional scientist, Dr Stacy Sims. Stacy is dedicated to helping active women – and the people who support them – take back control of their bodies, health and lives through science-based knowledge and practical tools. She is the author of two books, including ‘ROAR: How to Match Your Food and Fitness to Your Unique Female Physiology for Optimum Performance, Great Health, and a Strong, Lean Body for Life' and the creator of her signature course, Women Are Not Small Men, after recognising the lack of research specifically done on women in exercise, nutrition and medicine. In this conversation, we discuss: Why conventional fitness advice often fails women in midlife, and how we can move beyond outdated recommendations How hormonal changes during perimenopause affect everything from metabolism and muscle strength to mood and sleep The crucial role of resistance training in maintaining bone density, muscle mass and cognitive function as we get older Why high-intensity interval training can boost our metabolism, balance blood sugar and reduce harmful belly fat How the language around “muscle toning” can be unhelpful, and why lifting heavier weights is so important for building real strength and protecting our long-term health Practical ways to start strength training safely, even if you don't enjoy the gym, and simple strategies for fitting effective movement into a busy week with minimal time How building strength now supports our independence, resilience and vitality, helping us stay active, prevent injuries and feel confident as we age This conversation is an invitation for all of us to rethink what's possible as we grow older. Stacy's insights remind us that with the right information and support, we can build strength, confidence and better health at any stage of life. And if you find this episode helpful, why not share it with the women in your life – friends, family or colleagues – so they can feel empowered and informed about their bodies, too.

Women obviously go through many changes to their bodies and their minds when they become mothers. But what about fathers? Although moms have been studied extensively, few people have paid any attention to what happens to men when they become dads. Do they go through any physical changes at all? Do they also experience hormone surges and shrinking brains like women do (yes mom and dads, your brains got smaller). Do they also suffer from depression and anxiety? Dr. Darby Saxbe has dedicated her career to studying fathers, and in her new book, Dad Brain, the New Science of Fatherhood, she reveals things about fathers that are as surprising as they are dramatic, discoveries which could have enormous impact on how society views dear old dads, and their role in raising children.

Economist and Wharton Associate Professor Corinne Low shares the shocking data behind women's declining happiness, the “squeeze” of modern life, and the invisible forces shaping our choices around work, marriage, and caregiving. In this episode, we unpack: Why women still do most of the housework—even when they earn more How outdated divorce laws shaped women's career decisions and financial risk The caregiving and career “squeeze” that hits hardest in your 30s How gender roles and attraction patterns keep us stuck in cycles of burnout Practical, data-backed strategies to reclaim your energy, time, and joy ✨ This episode changed how I think about happiness and ambition and I hope it gives you tools to redefine “having it all” on your own terms. ✨ Homework: As soon as you finish listening, block out time for the activity that brings you the most joy (your “utility function”)—and protect it like it's a meeting with your boss.

Research shows that simple practices such as self-hugs, soothing touch, and hand-to-heart can calm the nervous system, supporting caregivers and the children in their care.Summary: From parents to teachers, caregiving can be overwhelming and exhausting. This episode of The Science of Happiness dives into simple touch-based strategies that promote calm, reduce stress, and foster stronger connections. Researchers share how even brief moments of self-soothing or supportive touch can improve mental and physical health for caregivers and children. How To Do This Practice: Sit or stand comfortably and take a moment to notice your body. Soften your jaw and shoulders. If it feels safe, close your eyes or lower your gaze. Place one hand on your belly, both hands over your heart, or give yourself a self-hug— whatever feels most comfortable and natural. Let the weight of your hands feel steady and supportive. Take a slow inhale through your nose and a longer exhale through your mouth. Silently repeat a kind phrase to yourself, like “How can I be a friend to myself today?” and “It's okay to make mistakes.” Feel the warmth and weight of your hands. On each exhale, invite a little ease into your face, shoulders, belly, and back. Notice any tiny shift toward calm. Wrap your arms around your torso and apply comfortable pressure, finishing with a gentle self-hug before returning to your day.

What if 99% of the universe holds the key to understanding UFOs, paranormal phenomena, and even consciousness itself? In this episode, Kelly Chase and Jay Christopher King dive deep into the plasma hypothesis—a paradigm-shifting idea that plasma, the fourth state of matter, may act as a substrate for intelligence. Fresh from the University of Exeter workshop on plasma cosmology (with thinkers like Robert Temple, Jeffrey Kripal, Bernard Carr, and Nick Cook), Kelly unpacks the conversations that are reshaping the frontier of science and anomalous studies. Together, Kelly and Jay explore: What plasma actually is and why it makes up nearly all of the visible universe. Robert Temple's groundbreaking book A New Science of Heaven and its implications for UFOs and consciousness studies. Why orb encounters and plasma-like phenomena may be central to the experiencer narrative. The limits of materialist explanations—and why plasma may not explain everything. How process philosophy and transpersonal psychology open new frameworks for exploring intelligent plasma. The overlap between orbs, UFOs, cryptids, and the land of the dead. The risks of overreach and the need to resist turning plasma into the next “quantum” catch-all. From the cutting edge of astrophysics to the lived realities of experiencers, this conversation wrestles with the biggest question of all: could plasma be the hidden medium of mind, matter, and mystery? ✨ Join the conversation and go deeper: Cosmosis Community on Patreon – ad-free episodes, monthly calls, private Discord, and more: CosmosisCommunity.com Cosmosis: UFOs & A New Reality – now streaming on Amazon, Apple TV, and multiple platforms: Cosmosis.MediaMusic for Cosmosis is by Michael Rubino.

In this episode, Kelly shares her recent paper Unfurling the Myth, presented at the University of Exeter during a workshop on Process Philosophy, Plasma Cosmology, and Transpersonal Psychology. This gathering brought together scientists, philosophers, and researchers—including Robert Temple, Jeffrey Kripal, Bernard Carr, Massimo Teodorani, and Nick Cook—to explore the possibility that plasma, the fourth state of matter, could serve as a substrate for non-biological intelligence. Kelly's paper argues that the UFO phenomenon is not just an anomaly in the sky but a relational event—an encounter that engages the psyche through the deep structures of narrative. Rather than delivering answers, the phenomenon generates mystery, catalyzing transformation on both personal and cultural levels. Drawing on thinkers like Robert Temple, Jacques Vallée, and Eric Davis, as well as research in narrative cognition and the psychology of curiosity, Kelly explores how UFOs may function as mythic initiators: destabilizing our categories of knowledge, activating curiosity, and compelling us to tell new stories. These stories are not just interpretations but mechanisms of reality-making—reshaping our understanding of self, world, and cosmos. Plasma cosmology and the possibility of plasma-based intelligence The UFO as relational event, not just object or craft Narrative as a generative interface between psyche and field How curiosity and myth catalyze transformation The “Call to Adventure” in experiencer narratives Cultural and personal shifts documented in experiencer research The UFO as evolutionary function, seeding new myths and meanings Whether you're new to these ideas or steeped in the mysteries of UFOs, this episode invites you to consider the phenomenon not as something to solve, but as something to participate in—a story in which we are all co-creators.

Stop chasing leads and start attracting them with trust-based strategies that position you as the go-to expert. In this session, Dan breaks down his “Teach to Sell” framework for influencing without pressure, and real estate pros Alyson and Shelby share the proven tactics that keep million-dollar closings flowing. From expired listing gift packages to high-touch farming systems and video content that resonates, you'll learn how to turn authentic connections into consistent business.
Before I introduce you to our very special guest expert today, I want to ask you a question. I encourage you to give it some real, thoughtful consideration. What if the real reason your agency's sales pipeline feels stalled has nothing to do with lead flow, your niche, or your team? What if you're not actually missing content? You're not missing knocks on the door. You're not missing invitations to the right room at the right time — or any of the other usual suspects we tend to blame. What if you're really missing momentum? When momentum is on your side, effort feels effortless. Right-fit prospects seem to appear out of nowhere. Your proposals move forward. Your team operates like a single unit. You speak — and your audience leans in. But — when momentum is gone — everything feels heavy. Wins don't stack on each other. Confidence fades. Right-fit prospects ghost you after receiving a proposal. The pressure to fix it fast makes you want to chase prospects — which feels like a whole lot of not awesome. Here's the good news — momentum isn't magic. It's measurable. It's repeatable. That's exactly what we unpack in today's episode. There's no better person to guide us through this conversation than our guest today, Don Yaeger. Don is one of the world's leading authorities on greatness, leadership, and momentum. He's the author of 35 books, including 12 New York Times bestsellers. Most recently — alongside retired U.S. Army General Bernie Banks — Don has co-authored The New Science of Momentum — a book that answers one of the most pressing questions agency owners and their teams are facing right now: How do you create momentum when it's missing? That's where we focus our time and energy for this episode — how to find the spark. And — how to turn that spark into sustained, unstoppable momentum that can change everything for you and your team. What you will learn in this episode: Why momentum — not leads, content, or invitations — could be the missing link in your agency's growth engine How to create the “spark” that shifts your team from stalled to unstoppable Why strong leadership must shape your agency's culture How to train your team to recognize and respond to opportunity Steps to reverse lost momentum when confidence dips — and how feedback loops set winning teams apart Resources: Website: https://donyaeger.com/ LinkedIn Personal: https://www.linkedin.com/in/donyaeger/ LinkedIn Business: https://www.linkedin.com/company/greatness-inc/ The New Science of Momentum

Ce sunt, de fapt, adictiile și dependentele? Sunt alegeri greșite, lipsă de voință sau răspunsuri la o durere nevindecată? În acest episod Mind Architect, Paul Olteanu stă de vorbă cu Cristina Bâra și Diana Safta, două profesioniste cu experiență vastă în lucrul cu traumele și în vindecarea adicțiilor, pentru a înțelege mai profund ce se află în spatele comportamentelor compulsive.Explorăm cum dependențele nu sunt semne de slăbiciune, ci mecanisme de adaptare la suferință, o încercare de a face față durerii, rușinii sau lipsei de conexiune. Vorbim despre cum se diferențiază o adicție de o obișnuință sau o pasiune, despre rolul traumei din copilărie, despre rușine, recăderi și despre pașii concreți spre vindecare.Vei înțelege de ce „opusul adicției este conexiunea", care sunt cele mai frecvente mituri despre adictii, ce tipuri de suport pot ajuta – de la psihoterapie la grupuri și relații sigure – și cum putem privi cu mai multă compasiune pe noi înșine sau pe cei dragi care se confruntă cu dependente. Un episod esențial despre umanitate, suferință și puterea reconectării.Seria #DespreAdicții este parte din colaborarea cu proiectul ReConnect, o inițiativă marca Compassionate Inquiry Experience, care își propune să invite o altă perspectivă de a ne uita la ce e în spatele încercării de a face față durerii mai degrabă decât a contribui la și mai multă izolare.Dacă îți dorești să participi la evenimentul ReConnect, în perioada 18-19 octombrie, poți afla mai multe informații aici: https://ro.compassionateinquiry.com/reconnect2025 Acest episod este produs și distribuit cu susținerea Banca Transilvania.

For years, cardiologist Eric Topol hunted for the rarest people in America: those over 80 who had never been sick. When he finally found 1,400 of them, he made a shocking discovery. It wasn't their genes. These "super agers" were often the last ones standing in families where everyone else died decades earlier. So what separates people who live into their 80s or 90s feeling great from those who battle chronic disease? In his new book, Super Agers, Eric reveals what the science actually shows, shares practical advice you can use at any age, and takes on the bro scientists selling false promises along the way. This is part one of our interview with Eric. Part two will be available right here next week. If you can't until then, you can listen now on the Next Big Idea app: https://nextbigideaclub.com/app/

The view that porn is inherently harmful seems to be growing. Porn is increasingly described as “addictive” and as a threat to public health. But is this actually true? In today’s show, we're revisiting an important conversation from the archives in which we explore the truth about how porn affects people. My guest is Dr. Nicole Prause, a licensed psychologist and sex researcher who founded the sexual biotechnology company Liberos. She is a former Kinsey Institute trainee and has published an extensive body of research on the neuroscience and psychophysiology of sex. She is currently a scientist at the University of California, Los Angeles in the Department of Medicine. Some of the specific questions we explore in this episode include: What counts as porn? And how do you measure porn use on surveys when different people have different definitions of it? Why are there so many discrepant findings about pornography’s effects in the research? Why shouldn’t we think of porn as addictive? How should we think about it instead? When people identify porn as a problem in their lives, is porn per se really the issue or is there usually something else going on? In what ways can porn potentially have positive effects on people? Learn more about Nicole by following her at @NicoleRPrause over on X and or Bluesky. Got a sex question?

In the previous episode, we began a fascinating conversation about the long history of human interest in kink and BDSM. Today, we're diving deeper into the subject and discussing how major cultural events have played a role in shaping kinky interests. We're also going to talk about how kink and BDSM have been portrayed in the media and some of the controversies around how it has been presented. I am joined once again by author, historian, and journalist Peter Tupper. He runs the History of BDSM blog and wrote the book A Lover's Pinch: A Cultural History of Sadomasochism. Some of the specific topics we explore include: How did WWII influence BDSM practices and communities? What’s the historical connection between BDSM and fascist politics? How are kink and BDSM represented in popular media? How do we balance making representations of minority sexualities accessible without over-relying on stereotypes? You can check out Peter’s book here. Got a sex question? Send me a podcast voicemail to have it answered on a future episode at speakpipe.com/sexandpsychology. *** Thank you to our sponsors!

Caregiving is the most universal of human acts. But also one of the most invisible. While caring for a child, parent or loved one can be meaningful, and life defining, it can also be exhausting and life breaking. Drawing on her groundbreaking research on baby's brains, UC Berkeley psychologist and philosopher Alison Gopnik is leading a multidisciplinary project to better understand the social science of caregiving with hopes of translating those insights into practical policies. Gopnik and policymaker Anne-Marie Slaughter join us to talk about how rethinking our approach to caregiving and how we support care providers, could lead to a better, more functional society. Guests: Alison Gopnik, professor of psychology and affiliate professor of philosophy, UC Berkeley; author, "The Gardener and the Carpenter: What the New Science of Child Development Tells Us About the Relationship Between Parents and Children" Anne-Marie Slaughter, CEO of New America, a non-profit think tank; author of "Unfinished Business: Women Men Work Family" Learn more about your ad choices.

Who hasn't had a brilliant idea or revelation while taking a shower? It seems the shower is a place where we do some of our best thinking. Why is that? This episode starts with an explanation. https://www.headspace.com/articles/shower-epiphanies What is love? Is it an experience, or an emotion or something else?
