The 5D Academy with Zarathustra explores universal wisdom to foster total freedom from suffering in all areas of your life; health, wealth, love, and self.Each Academy podcast contains valuable insights and takeaways to become the best version of yourself and create an authentic, fulfilling life. Zarathustra transmits 5th Dimensional Quantum frequencies in each episode with transformational tools while discussing different topics to help you maintain this new frequency in your daily life.Zarathustra has created a practical system of transmitting the truth to his audience allowing transformation and freedom from suffering. Spiritual development requires an open heart. It is virtually impossible for a seeker to advance to higher consciousness if they don't love themselves. The belief system which has been ingrained in our cellular memory from childhood that we are not good enough results in a conditioned mind. The conditioned mind holds the false belief that there is something missing in our lives, that we are incomplete, that we need to gain something in order to become happy and whole, which is not true. After a life time of searching, Zarathustra has blended a practical system of Eastern and Western methods and techniques to help the Academy members to free themselves from anxiety, negative thoughts, lack of self-love and self-acceptance and destructive emotional patterns through a systematic way to raise your vibration to 5D Vibrational Frequency, which enables you to live a vibrant life of freedom and happiness.The Key Elements To Freedom:Zarathustra recognizes continuity and consistency are the key elements to freedom. In order to help you achieve your spiritual goals, it's best to have a highly effective spiritual practice, free of dogmas, false beliefs and superstition that helps you raise your vibration to 5D Vibrational Frequency as well as the ability to maintain this newly found higher level of consciousness. This translates to a life filled with inner peace, self-love and happiness which is the goal of every spiritual seeker.New knowledge and benefits are gained with each replay.

Just a few clicks makes it easy for you to listen on your favorite podcast player.  Become a PREMIUM member today by going to --> https://WomensMeditationNetwork.com/premium The intention of tonight's meditation is to guide you gently into the deep, restful sleep your body needs. Even though your mind wants to keep you awake with tasks to do, responsibilities to hold or life to ponder.  Sleep is here...and she's waiting for you. So go ahead and close your eyes as you settle into comfort. And just notice how it feels to close your eyes. Maybe you can feel your eyelids twitch softly as they begin to surrender to the sleep they've been fighting.  Perhaps you can feel the moment when their heaviness finally takes over and your entire face falls and relaxes, As your cheeks soften, And your jaw releases, Your tongue drops from the roof of your mouth, And your forehead relaxes. Feel the heaviness of your eyes sink you further into the night. PAUSE… Now bring your attention to your stomach. Observe how it rises and falls with every breath. Feel it filling with air as you breathe in, And releasing air as you breathe out.  Now see if you can take a deep breath in, Inviting your stomach to grow as big as it can as you fill your body with cool air, And exhaling it all the way out. Imagining that every breath out releases a thought, A worry, A task, A memory, A vision. Imagine that each breath in invites in cleansing oxygen, gathering up all the happenings of the day,  And the array of emotions and thoughts that have been stored inside your body, And on each exhale, imagine the air extracting all of it, releasing it out into the dark night around you. Watch them dissolve into tiny grains of dust that disappear around you.  Breathe in, gather it all up, And breathe out, letting it all go.  Breathe in, Breathe out. PAUSE… Your body is ready to sleep, beautiful. And your mind is liquid, eager for a rest. Surrender to the calming depths of sleep.  It is safe for you here, It is healing for you here.

Le cabinet de sécurité israélien a approuvé officiellement, dans la nuit du jeudi 7 au vendredi 8 août, le plan de Benyamin Netanyahu. L'État hébreu veut désormais occuper l'intégralité de la bande de Gaza, en commençant par prendre le contrôle total de la ville de Gaza. L'analyse de David Rigoulet-Roze, chercheur à l'Institut français d'analyse stratégique et rédacteur en chef de la revue Orients Stratégiques.

O Ministério Público do Estado do Acre (MPAC), por meio da 1ª Promotoria de Justiça Especializada de Defesa da Saúde, expediu recomendação à Secretaria de Estado de Saúde do Acre (Sesacre) para que adote medidas visando à observância rigorosa de dispositivos legais e decisões judiciais que impedem a contratação, pelo poder público, das entidades Santa Casa da Amazônia — atualmente denominada Instituto Brasil-Amazônia de Serviços Especializados e Saúde (Inbases) — e Santa Casa de Rio Branco.

A research team from the University of Galway has captured a rarely observed ocean mixing process during an expedition to the Greenland Sea, a finding that could improve our understanding of Arctic climate change. The research team spent several weeks at sea during the summer of 2023 aboard the Marine Institute's research vessel RV Celtic Explorer, carrying out surface ocean measurements in one of the most remote and climate-sensitive parts of the world. The team focused on a phenomenon known as cabbeling. This process involves the temperature and salinity (concentration of salt) in the ocean, which together make up the ocean density. Cabbeling occurs when two water masses with different temperatures and salinities, but the same density, are mixed together. The result is a denser mixture than either of the original water masses, a consequence of the non-linear behaviour of seawater. This denser mixture then sinks, triggering turbulence and vertical mixing. Cabbeling has important implications for melting Arctic sea ice as it can increase the amount of heat from below to the ocean surface. The study has been published in the Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans. To observe the cabbeling process, the team deployed a robotic instrument known as the Air-Sea Interaction Profiler (ASIP), which is a unique instrument specifically designed to study small-scale processes at the ocean surface. The ASIP is 2.8 metres in length, weighs about 90 kilograms, and is completely autonomous. Repeated dives and ascents by the robotic instrument carry its sensors through the upper 100 meters of the upper ocean, making fine-scale physical measurements including turbulence, temperature, and salinity. The results have implications for improving scientists' understanding of cabbeling and its potential role in models of sea surface warming and Arctic ice loss, particularly as climate patterns shift. The Greenland Sea is expected to experience increased freshwater outflow from melting ice in a warmer climate, altering the regional dynamics. Understanding and incorporating the effects of cabbeling will enhance the accuracy of predictions of ocean heat transport, especially in polar regions where warming is accelerating and sea ice is in decline. The study was led by PhD candidate Kevin McGraw, Professor Audrey Morley and Professor Brian Ward from the University of Galway, and took place along the East Greenland Polar Front, an area where cold, fresh Arctic water meets warmer, saltier Atlantic water. Kevin McGraw, PhD candidate at the School of Natural Sciences, University of Galway, said: "Cabbeling is rarely observed because it is sporadic and short-lived, with its intensity and reach varying across Polar Regions. Our underwater robotic platform, Air-Sea Interaction Profiler, is a unique instrument designed specifically to study the upper ocean without interference from the ship. Because it can capture rapid changes on the scale of seconds to minutes, it allowed the team to detect cabbeling in action, which would have been nearly impossible with conventional methods." Professor Audrey Morley, Professor of Marine Geology at the School of Geography and Archaeology, University of Galway, said: "The Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) is a system of ocean currents that circulates water within the Atlantic Ocean, bringing warm water north and cold water south, thereby distributing heat around the globe. Density gradients have been identified as a main driver of the AMOC, which may be altered by high-latitude cabbeling in a warming ocean. This suggests that the cabbeling effect needs to be considered to explain past and future AMOC variability." Professor Brian Ward, Professor of Ocean Physics at the School of Natural Sciences, University of Galway, said: "These observations are a good example of the subtle processes associated with climate change and how small-scale processes can have broader implications. New methods of detection, such...

John Horn, professor of economics at Washington University's Olin Business School and former McKinsey strategist, shares a disciplined framework for understanding competitive behavior by applying game theory and structured simulations. In this episode, he explains how companies can elevate competitor analysis from basic intelligence gathering to actionable strategic insight.   Horn begins by debunking the common misconception that many competitors behave irrationally. As he puts it: “Every single time a client said the competitor is irrational, I could ask them... two, three questions which would explain... why the company was being rational in what they were doing.”   He outlines a four-step framework leaders can use to model likely competitive behavior: Observe what competitors say and do, including press releases, earnings calls, and other public data. Assess their assets, resources, and capabilities, and imagine what you'd do in their position. Identify the decision-maker and their background to infer how they think: “If you grew up as a marketer and you became a CEO, you're going to look at the world from a marketing perspective.” Make a short-term prediction, write it down, and revisit it: “It becomes a virtuous cycle of getting a better insight into how that competitor thinks.”   Horn emphasizes that many firms fall short because they stop at step one or lack mechanisms to feed deeper insights into decision-making. He also stresses the role of empathy—not sympathy—in strategy: “I do have to empathize, understand why they're making the choices they make.”   War gaming, in Horn's view, is a powerful simulation tool, not theater. “It's a chance to practice business choices in a risk-free way... and just a much more realistic discussion.”   For entrepreneurs or under-resourced teams, Horn offers a lighter-weight version called "War Gaming Lite," which enables rapid, structured thinking about competitive responses using only internal knowledge and role-playing.   He also discusses how human biases, short-term incentives, and lack of time make both your firm and your rivals more predictable than you might think: “People really are predictable... It's not rocket science—it's about being disciplined.”   Whether you're a startup founder or a Fortune 500 executive, this episode offers practical steps to improve your strategic foresight and competitive positioning, grounded in empathy, behavioral realism, and iterative prediction.   Get John's book here: https://shorturl.at/6DOyh Inside the Competitor's Mindset: How to Predict Their Next Move and Position Yourself for Success.   Here are some free gifts for you: Overall Approach Used in Well-Managed Strategy Studies free download: www.firmsconsulting.com/OverallApproach   McKinsey & BCG winning resume free download: www.firmsconsulting.com/resumepdf   Enjoying this episode?

In this episode of the Nonprofit Exchange, I had the pleasure of speaking with Singh, a passionate advocate for mindful leadership and burnout prevention. With over 23 years of experience in corporate America, Singh faced a significant challenge during a ransomware attack in October 2020, which led him to explore mindful practices that he had unknowingly been using since his youth. We discussed the alarming issue of burnout among nonprofit leaders, emphasizing that it often stems from a lack of fulfillment in three key areas: gratitude, grace, and personal growth. Singh explained how burnout begins with self-doubt and can escalate into physical manifestations of stress, urging listeners to recognize their body's signals as vital data for transformation. Singh shared practical strategies for overcoming overwhelm, including three essential questions to ask oneself in any situation to regain focus and clarity. He highlighted the importance of reframing stress into strategic clarity and provided a simple tool called STOP (Stop, Think, Observe, and Proceed) to help individuals manage their emotional states effectively. We also touched on the myths surrounding nonprofit work, such as overcommitment and the belief that self-care is selfish. Singh emphasized that taking care of oneself is crucial for being able to serve others effectively. Finally, we explored the role of mindfulness in decision-making, clarifying that mindfulness is about being present and intentional rather than conforming to traditional notions of meditation. Singh's insights and tools offer hope and practical steps for nonprofit leaders to combat burnout and enhance their well-being.

Is boredom a problem—or a powerful emotional signal? In this episode of #Overpowering Emotions, Dr. Caroline challenges the modern urge to “fix” boredom and shares why it's actually essential for emotion regulation, creativity, and executive function. Learn how boredom acts as a reset for the brain, encourages self-reflection, and builds resilience in kids and adults alike. Discover why sitting in stillness matters more than ever—and how doing nothing may be exactly what growing minds need.Homework Ideas Schedule daily "do-nothing" breaks: 3–5 minutes of intentional stillness—no phones, music, or multitasking. Just breathe, notice, and pause.Model boredom tolerance: Say “I'm bored too—let's sit with it together” (even if you aren't). Normalize the emotion without rushing to fix it. Who knows what spark might happen!Reframe the language: Instead of “I'm bored,” try “I'm resetting” or “I'm giving my brain a break.” Teach this shift to your kids.Observe your own reaction to kids' boredom: Are you rushing to solve it? Sit with that discomfort too.Create a boredom menu: Use the resource below as a proactive list of creative activities kids can reference before they feel bored.

Send us a textIn episode 247 of “The Data Diva” Talks Privacy Podcast, Debbie Reynolds talks to  Michael Robbins, Social Entrepreneur and Civic Builder, and a visionary in building human-plus-digital learning ecosystems. We discuss his decades-long journey at the intersection of education, technology, and community, from grassroots innovation to White House policy. Michael shares a compelling vision for the future of AI in education, centered on empowering individuals to create and control their own AI narratives. He introduces his data model, called DOTES (Do, Observe, Tell, Explore, Show), which captures real-world learning experiences and enables the training of personalized AI agents grounded in data integrity and digital personhood.Our conversation explores the concept of implication models, AI systems that learn from and work for people, rather than exploiting their data. Michael draws parallels between decentralized data governance and the design of AI trusts, where individuals have full control over their digital identities and contributions. We also explore the limitations of current large language models and discuss new frameworks that could rebuild AI from the ground up, centering privacy, consent, and community.Together, we envision a future where youth and adults alike use AI not as a replacement for human intelligence but as a tool for self-expression, empowerment, and democratic participation. This episode is a masterclass in AI ethics, digital sovereignty, and the urgent need to shift from extractive technologies to human-first ecosystems. We hope for a future where data privacy is not just a legal checkbox, but a fundamental principle of technological design and societal infrastructure.Support the show

NA'ALEH YOGA: Nidra Journeys for Deep Rest+ Close Your Eyes and Stay Awake...   This episode is part of the Jewish Calendar Series and is created for the month of Av.  This month focuses on rectifying the sense of hearing and invites you to descend into the healing darkness where you can listen deeply to connect with the resonance of your soul.  Through practicing Yoga Nidra, you take a pause from all the sensory input channels except for sound so you can focus on the space within. This practice of Yoga Nidra guides you in the exploration of sound as you journey through the layers of consciousness from the body, breath, and mind to your deeper understanding and soul consciousness. Instead of a traditional verbal visualization, this practice contains a non-verbal sound visualization sequence to support deepest listening beyond that which words can express, while you are held in a state of relaxation.  Please note that this practice may bring out unexpected emotions or memories. This is completely normal, and you are encouraged to welcome all that shows up with curiosity and compassionate witnessing. If this is not the right time for you to elicit emotions, then a milder practice may be better suited for the time being.  Prepare for a transformative experience as you receive the gift of rest in the stillness of your soul. Allow your body and mind to relax deeply as you sail through sounds and silence and hear your soul's whispers.   Episode Summary: Here's what you can expect: Preparation: Begin by settling into a comfortable position. Make sure you're fully supported completely at ease. Intention Setting: You will be guided to set a powerful Sankalpa/kavanah (intention) for this practice. Choose a meaningful, positive "I am..." statement that resonates with your heart and soul, reflecting your life's orienting resolve and deepest truth. Rotation of Consciousness: Experience a thorough body scan by listening to each part of your body as you transition into a state of deeper relaxation. Breath Awareness: Practice guided breathwork to while focusing on the sound of your breath Polarities: Train your mind to respond rather than react by practicing holding space for yourself as you hear sounds evoking opposite experiences. Observe how these opposite sounds affect your body. Visualization: Experience a non-verbal sound healing visualization sequenced to move you into a deeper state of consciousness.  Return to Your Intention: Reconnect with the intention you set earlier. Let it resonate deeply into your being. Externalization: Gradually transition back to your ordinary waking state and integrate the practice  Background Music from Pixabay: Binaural Flotation Meditation by Nature's Eye Music for Sleep, Song of the Sea by Astria Lyrioth   Subscribe to Na'aleh Yoga for more meditative Yoga Nidra journeys and transformative experiences.

In this episode, Lauren and Trey pick up where they left off—exploring the inner work men need to do so they can connect authentically with the women they truly desire. Trey opens up about how his experience as a Human Design Projector means running on a finite battery. Lauren, as a Generator, offers steady energy and support within the relationship.Trey shares how their conversation sparked a realization they hadn't discussed: Human Design has been a game‑changer for them as a couple, helping them understand and support each other on a deeper level.Lauren reveals what she's been into lately:

Observe the month of Abib, and keep the passover unto the Lord thy God: for in the month of Abib the Lord thy God brought thee forth out of Egypt by night. Thou shalt therefore sacrifice the passover unto the Lord thy God, of the flock and the herd, in the place which the Lord shall choose to place his name there. Thou shalt eat no leavened bread with it; seven days shalt thou eat unleavened bread therewith, even the bread of affliction; for thou camest forth out of the land of Egypt in haste: that thou mayest remember the day when thou camest forth out of the land of Egypt all the days of thy life.Deuteronomy 16:1–3Hello everyone and welcome to the Christian Educational Ministries Weekend Bible Study.

Dart and part eight of his thoughtfully detailed study on the book of Deuteronomy, which teaches us to know God, love God and obey God.

Ajahn Dhammasiha is asked:"How do we observe the mind?"Ajahn offers some reflections on superficial layers of the mind (like thinking) and deeper layers that can only be accessed in Samādhi. Ajahn also responds to a second question on mindfulness of feelings:"How to Distinguish wordly and spiritual feelings?"Spiritual happiness generated through good karma, generosity, virtue, sense retraint and samādhi/jhāna is so important, as it provides us with a superior happiness than sensuality.

Back To Basics // Week 12 // Sabbath RestPastors JF and Ashley WilkersonExodus 20:8-11 NIV 8 “Remember the Sabbath day by keeping it holy. 9 Six days you shall labor and do all your work, 10 but the seventh day is a sabbath to the Lord your God. On it you shall not do any work, neither you, nor your son or daughter, nor your male or female servant, nor your animals, nor any foreigner residing in your towns. 11 For in six days the Lord made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, but he rested on the seventh day. Therefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day and made it holy.In the original language, the terms translated to Sabbath refer to a literal settling down to pause from creating and make a conscious choice to reflect on all that God has done.We are to work from rest - not rest from work. That order is SIGNIFICANT.1. What if we view rest as support in remembering?Genesis 2:1-3 NIV 1 Thus the heavens and the earth were completed in all their vast array. 2 By the seventh day God had finished the work he had been doing; so on the seventh day he rested from all his work. 3 Then God blessed the seventh day and made it holy, because on it he rested from all the work of creating that he had done.Deuteronomy 5:12-15 NIV 12 “Observe the Sabbath day by keeping it holy, as the Lord your God has commanded you. 13 Six days you shall labor and do all your work,14 but the seventh day is a sabbath to the Lord your God. On it you shall not do any work, neither you, nor your son or daughter, nor your male or female servant, nor your ox, your donkey or any of your animals, nor any foreigner residing in your towns, so that your male and female servants may rest, as you do. 15 Remember that you were slaves in Egypt and that the Lord your God brought you out of there with a mighty hand and an outstretched arm. Therefore the Lord your God has commanded you to observe the Sabbath day.1. What if we view rest as support in remembering?2. What if we view rest as strengthening our relationship?Exodus 20:1-5a; 7-17 NIV1 And God spoke all these words: 2 “I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of Egypt, out of the land of slavery. 3 “You shall have no other gods before me. 4 “You shall not make for yourself an image in the form of anything in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the waters below. 5a You shall not bow down to them or worship them…Exodus 20:7-17 NIVHebrews 4:9-14 NIV1. What if we view rest as support in remembering?2. What if we view rest as strengthening our relationship?3. What if we view rest as a solidifying of our reliance?Exodus 16:21-26 NIV 21 Each morning everyone gathered as much as they needed, and when the sun grew hot, it melted away. 22 On the sixth day, they gathered twice as much—two omers for each person—and the leaders of the community came and reported this to Moses. 23 He said to them, “This is what the Lord commanded: ‘Tomorrow is to be a day of sabbath rest, a holy sabbath to the Lord. So bake what you want to bake and boil what you want to boil. Save whatever is left and keep it until morning.'” 24 So they saved it until morning, as Moses commanded, and it did not stink or get maggots in it. 25 “Eat it today,” Moses said, “because today is a sabbath to the Lord. You will not find any of it on the ground today. 26 Six days you are to gather it, but on the seventh day, the Sabbath, there will not be any.”When God created Sabbath by resting after six days of creation, He declared that He was the Master of work and that work was never the master of Him. And When a believer takes a Sabbath, the same declaration is made…keeping work from ever becoming a god in our lives. Allowing us to have a healthy relationship with work and thus promoting health in all areas of our lives…physical, spiritual and relational.Mark 2:23-28 NIV 23 One Sabbath Jesus was going through the grainfields, and as his disciples walked along, they began to pick some heads of grain. 24 The Pharisees said to him, “Look, why are they doing what is unlawful on the Sabbath?” 25 He answered, “Have you never read what David did when he and his companions were hungry and in need? 26 In the days of Abiathar the high priest, he entered the house of God and ate the consecrated bread, which is lawful only for priests to eat. And he also gave some to his companions.” 27 Then he said to them, “The Sabbath was made for man, not man for the Sabbath. 28 So the Son of Man is Lord even of the Sabbath.”1. What if we view rest as support in remembering?2. What if we view rest as strengthening our relationship?3. What if we view rest as a solidifying of our reliance?

Guest post by Josephine McGrail who is an empowering wellness coach and the author of The Morning Miracle, Messages of Love, and Fall in Love with You "Your business is a reflection of your inner world. If you want your company to grow, evolve yourself first- we rise by rooting." In a world of rapid acceleration and constant disruption, business leaders are often trained to look outward. Outward for trends. Outward for talent. Outward for strategies, performance metrics, and solutions. Leadership Mindfulness When something isn't working, we examine our teams, the market, the timing - anything and everything external. But here's the truth most leaders avoid: Your company doesn't rise above your level of consciousness. If your business is stuck, scattered, or stalling, it's evidence that's something inside isn't working or is out of alignment. Everything grows from the root up. Sustainable, magnetic leadership doesn't start at the top line. It starts at the roots. And nothing strengthens those roots like mindfulness. The inner world drives the outer results If you're operating from mental overload, emotional disconnection, or outdated patterns, it will show - no matter how polished the brand or impressive the revenue. Why? Because leadership is energy. It sets the tone. It shapes the culture. It drives momentum -or diffuses it. When your values are unclear, your team feels unanchored. When you're burnt out, your decisions come from reactivity, not vision. When you're disconnected from your purpose, the mission feels hollow to others too. Mindfulness reconnects you. It brings you back to presence, clarity, and alignment, so you're not just performing leadership, you're embodying it. Stop running, start rooting Most leadership pain points are symptoms of something deeper. Poor team engagement? It often stems from unclear or misaligned leadership energy. Lack of innovation? It's usually not a talent gap - it's a trust or culture issue. Flat growth? Often it's because the leader is in maintenance mode, not evolution mode. We chase the fix on the surface: hiring new consultants, rewriting roadmaps, buying tools often without asking the most vital question: Where in me is this challenge rooted? Mindfulness gives you the ability to pause and go inward instead of constantly reaching outward. It helps you notice the unconscious patterns shaping your actions- and gives you the power to shift them. This is how real leadership transformation begins. Not by doing more. But by becoming more - from the root up. Self-awareness is the new superpower At the heart of impactful leadership is one foundational skill: self-awareness. And yet, it's the one most neglected. It's not taught in boardrooms. It's rarely prioritised in executive KPIs. But the truth is, without it, even the best strategy will underperform. Mindfulness cultivates self-awareness in a way no other tool can. It teaches you to: Observe your thoughts without being ruled by them Recognise emotional triggers before they hijack conversations Identify limiting beliefs that quietly shape major decisions Stay present in high-stakes moments, when presence matters most And most importantly, it allows you to lead yourself first so you can lead others with grounded clarity, not unconscious noise. Rooted leadership lasts longer Short-term success can be built on charisma, hustle, or fear. But long-term, sustainable impact? That only happens when leadership is rooted in authenticity, clarity, and depth. A leader who has not completed inner work will unknowingly recreate the same dysfunctional patterns over and over again, no matter how much the strategy changes. A leader who continues to do the inner work, as well as outer work, becomes a stabilising force in chaos. A visionary, not just a manager. You can't build a resilient company on an unstable foundation. And you can't scale a vision you're not deeply aligned with. Mindful leadership is the only leadership that lasts.

Two Overarching 3 Kings Take-Aways God partners with ordinary people (messy) to accomplish His extraordinary purposes. Ordinary people are capable of mighty acts when we align our mind, heart and hands with God's. Solomon is Different KingPhysicallyBackground SkillsetWisdomThe Hebrew word for wisdom (hokma) means information + insight. The OT concept of wisdom carries a moral, ethical and an applied skill component. The NT word for wisdom (sophia) points to a practical and spiritual understanding of God's will and applying that knowledge to life. “Knowing the greatest goal in any situation and the best way to achieve it.” Pastor John PiperRemarkable Moment. Ordinary Day.1 Kings 3:16-28 (NIV) 16 Now two prostitutes came to the king and stood before him. 17 One of them said, “Pardon me, my lord. This woman and I live in the same house, and I had a baby while she was there with me. 18 The third day after my child was born, this woman also had a baby. We were alone; there was no one in the house but the two of us. 19 “During the night this woman's son died because she lay on him. 20 So she got up in the middle of the night and took my son from my side while I your servant was asleep. She put him by her breast and put her dead son by my breast. 21 The next morning, I got up to nurse my son—and he was dead! But when I looked at him closely in the morning light, I saw that it wasn't the son I had borne.” 22 The other woman said, “No! The living one is my son; the dead one is yours.” But the first one insisted, “No! The dead one is yours; the living one is mine.” And so they argued before the king. 23 The king said, “This one says, ‘My son is alive and your son is dead,' while that one says, ‘No! Your son is dead and mine is alive.'” 24 Then the king said, “Bring me a sword.” So, they brought a sword for the king. 25 He then gave an order: “Cut the living child in two and give half to one and half to the other.” 26 The woman whose son was alive was deeply moved out of love for her son and said to the king, “Please, my lord, give her the living baby! Don't kill him!” But the other said, “Neither I nor you shall have him. Cut him in two!” 27 Then the king gave his ruling: “Give the living baby to the first woman. Do not kill him; she is his mother.” 28 When all Israel heard the verdict the king had given, they held the king in awe, because they saw that he had wisdom from God to administer justice.1 Kings 4:29 (NIV) “God gave Solomon wisdom and very great insight, and a breadth of understanding as measureless as the sand on the seashore.”Question: What was the genesis of Solomon's wisdom? Answer: Godly advice + a Godly ask.Godly Advice is two-fold. 1 Kings 2:1-4 (NIV) When the time drew near for David to die, he gave a charge to Solomon his son. 2 “I am about to go the way of all the earth,” he said. “So be strong, act like a man, 3 and observe what the Lord your God requires: Walk in obedience to him, and keep his decrees and commands, his laws and regulations, as written in the Law of Moses. Do this so that you may prosper in all you do and wherever you go 4 and that the Lord may keep his promise to me: ‘If your descendants watch how they live, and if they walk faithfully before me with all their heart and soul, you will never fail to have a successor on the throne of Israel.' 1. Be strong, act like a man (NIV)…“show what you are made of” (Message) David is challenging/imploring Solomon to step up to what he was being called into. 2. Observe what the Lord requires. Align your words, will and ways to that of the Lord. It's not possible to lead at this level if you are out of alignment. Out of alignment places an untenable burden – emotional, intellectual, spiritual and physical on our shoulders. Alignment is a synergistic position that employs God's power to accomplish His/our joint purposes.Godly Ask. 2 Kings 3:3-15 (NIV) 3 Solomon showed his love for the Lord by walking according to the instructions given him by his father David, except that he offered sacrifices and burned incense on the high places. 4 The king went to Gibeon to offer sacrifices, for that was the most important high place, and Solomon offered a thousand burnt offerings on that altar. 5 At Gibeon the Lord appeared to Solomon during the night in a dream, and God said, “Ask for whatever you want me to give you.” 6 Solomon answered, “You have shown great kindness to your servant, my father David, because he was faithful to you and righteous and upright in heart. You have continued this great kindness to him and have given him a son to sit on his throne this very day. 7 “Now, Lord my God, you have made your servant king in place of my father David. But I am only a little child and do not know how to carry out my duties. 8 Your servant is here among the people you have chosen, a great people, too numerous to count or number. 9 So give your servant a discerning heart to govern your people and to distinguish between right and wrong. For who is able to govern this great people of yours?” 10 The Lord was pleased that Solomon had asked for this. 11 So God said to him, “Since you have asked for this and not for long life or wealth for yourself, nor have asked for the death of your enemies but for discernment in administering justice, 12 I will do what you have asked. I will give you a wise and discerning heart, so that there will never have been anyone like you, nor will there ever be. 13 Moreover, I will give you what you have not asked for—both wealth and honor—so that in your lifetime you will have no equal among kings. 14 And if you walk in obedience to me and keep my decrees and commands as David your father did, I will give you a long life.” 15 Then Solomon awoke—and he realized it had been a dream. “I am only a child” Solomon's ask can from a place of self-awareness. All good leadership comes from a place of self-awareness. “The Lord was pleased that Solomon had asked for this” Why? Because Solomon's was aligning with the Lord's purpose. He was falling in behind the leadership of YHWY – not asking YWHY to fall in behind his leadership! Is God's wisdom accessible to me? Godly Wisdom is neither secretive or elusive but you can only have it if you go for it! And when you “get it and follow it” there is a reward! 3 essentials to obtaining wisdom. Fear God. Trust God. Ask God. Each step comes with its own sets of rewards.Essential #1 Fear God. Proverbs 9:10 The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, and knowledge of the Holy One is understanding. Reverence and Awe are the beginning of wisdom because if we don't hold God in the highest of regard, elevating Him and His counsel above ourselves and others, we won't align our actions with His… simple as that. Proverbs 14:12 (AMP) There is a way which seems right to a man and appears straight before him, but its end is the way of death. REWARD #1. Proverbs 9:11-12 (NIV) 11 For through wisdom your days will be many, and years will be added to your life. 12 If you are wise, your wisdom will reward you; if you are a mocker, you alone will suffer.Essential #2 Trust God. Proverbs 3:1-8 (Charlie Amplified Version) INSTRUCTION 1My son, do not forget my teaching [these aren't secrets], but keep my commands in your heart [keep a tight grip], REWARD 2 for they will prolong your life many years and bring you peace and prosperity. INSTRUCTION 3 Let love and faithfulness [hesed] never leave you; bind them around your neck, write them on the tablet of your heart [keep God's hesed front in center of all emotions and decisions]. REWARD 4 Then you will win favor and a good name in the sight of God and man. INSTRUCTION 5 Trust [rely on, have confidence in] in the Lord with all your heart [emotions] and lean not on your own understanding [what seems]; 6 in all your ways [decisions and movement] submit to him [yield], REWARD and he will make your paths straight. INSTRUCTION 7 Do not be wise in your own eyes [seems]; fear the Lord [be in awe] and shun [turn away/ reject] evil.REWARD 8 This will bring health to your body and nourishment to your bones. Essential #3. Ask God. James 1:2-8 (AMP) 5 If any of you lacks wisdom [to guide him through a decision or circumstance], he is to ask of [our benevolent] God, who gives to everyone generously and without rebuke or blame… Reward… and it will be given to him. 3 essentails to obtaining wisdom. Fear God. Elevate God over yourself. Trust God. Elevate His path over other's opinion. Ask God. Elevate God to your first and last ask. “Thou, O Christ, who went tempted in all points like we are, yet without sin, make us strong to overcome the desire to be wise and to be reputed wise by others as ignorant as ourselves. We turn from our wisdom as well from our folly and flee to Thee, the wisdom and the power of God. Amen” (AW Tozer, The Knowledge of the Holy pg. 59.) “With the goodness of God to desire our highest welfare, the wisdom of God to plan it, and the power of God to achieve it, what do we lack? Surely we are the most favored of all creatures.” (AW Tozer, The Knowledge of the Holy pg. 64.)

Zarathustra transmits 5th Dimensional Quantum frequencies in each episode with transformational tools while discussing different topics to help you maintain this new frequency in your daily life.Zarathustra has created a practical system of transmitting the truth to his audience allowing transformation and freedom from suffering. Spiritual development requires an open heart. It is virtually impossible for a seeker to advance to higher consciousness if they don't love themselves. The belief system which has been ingrained in our cellular memory from childhood that we are not good enough results in a conditioned mind.

After a life time of searching, Zarathustra has blended a practical system of Eastern and Western methods and techniques to help the Academy members to free themselves from anxiety, negative thoughts, lack of self-love and self-acceptance and destructive emotional patterns through a systematic way to raise your vibration to 5D Vibrational Frequency, which enables you to live a vibrant life of freedom and happiness.The Key Elements To Freedom:Zarathustra recognizes continuity and consistency are the key elements to freedom. In order to help you achieve your spiritual goals, it's best to have a highly effective spiritual practice, free of dogmas, false beliefs and superstition that helps you raise your vibration to 5D Vibrational Frequency as well as the ability to maintain this newly found higher level of consciousness.

Il l'a annoncé dimanche 13 juillet par un simple tweet : Paul Biya sera candidat le 12 octobre prochain pour un huitième mandat présidentiel au Cameroun. Le chef de l'État a ainsi mis fin à un faux suspense. À 92 ans et après 42 ans au pouvoir, il sera donc candidat à sa propre succession. Cette nouvelle candidature a aussitôt été dénoncée par l'opposition, qui y voit « un mépris pour le peuple » et un président qui s'accroche au pouvoir. Comment analyser cette nouvelle candidature ? Peut-elle encore rassembler ? Brice Molo est sociologue et historien, docteur à l'École des hautes études en sciences sociales (EHESS) et à l'Université de Yaoundé. Il est l'invité de Pierre Firtion. RFI : À 92 ans, Paul Biya a donc annoncé dimanche 13 juillet se porter candidat à un huitième mandat. Comment analysez-vous cette candidature ? Ce n'est pas vraiment une surprise ? Brice Molo : Non, pas vraiment. Il y a eu un petit moment d'attente. Mais quiconque observe la scène politique camerounaise s'attendait à une candidature de Paul Biya. Il y a déjà eu par le passé, même en 2018, un petit moment de latence. Mais la déclaration, elle, finit toujours par arriver à peu près au même moment de l'année, à chaque fois. Ce qui diffère cette fois avec 2018, c'est que sa candidature, on pourrait dire, a suscité quelques tensions au sein du camp présidentiel. Comment est-ce que vous les analysez ? Paul Biya avait laissé une sorte d'incertitude sur sa candidature en annonçant que le moment venu, il dirait s'il rentre au village ou s'il se présente pour un nouveau mandat. Cette phrase-là a été plusieurs fois reprise à la fois par des proches du régime, comme des analystes, en disant qu'il y avait quand même comme une incertitude là-dessus. Tout cela s'inscrit aussi dans un climat politique assez particulier, avec la démission annoncée de deux ministres, avec le décès de membres du gouvernement, et donc avec l'impression aussi, au sein de l'opinion, qu'il y a une forme d'érosion du pouvoir et d'usure même aussi due à l'âge de Paul Biya et à ses apparitions de moins en moins nombreuses dans l'espace public. L'absence de Paul Biya est compensée par l'hyper présence du secrétaire général de la présidence de la République [Ferdinand Ngoh Ngoh, NDLR], dont quelques observateurs ont dit que c'était lui le véritable porteur, ou en tout cas profiteur de la nouvelle candidature de Paul Biya. À lire aussiCameroun: Paul Biya annonce sa candidature à la présidentielle pour un huitième mandat Le président camerounais est apparu mardi à la télévision alors que l'opinion, et vous en parliez, s'interroge un peu sur son état de santé. Est-ce pour justement rassurer la population ? Est-ce qu'il y a là la volonté de faire passer un message ? De mon point de vue, il y a la volonté de faire passer un message. On estime que Paul Biya n'est pas là ou que c'est une candidature qui est portée par des personnes qui veulent se servir de son image et de son corps pour se maintenir au pouvoir ou profiter du pouvoir ou encore garder des positions de pouvoir. À travers les images qu'on a vues de Paul Biya recevant le nonce apostolique, il y a aussi la volonté de faire passer le message selon lequel il est et qu'il reste. À 92 ans et après 42 ans au pouvoir, Paul Biya peut-il encore rassembler selon vous ? Paul Biya rassemble. Son nom est encore associé aux instruments qui permettent de gouverner. L'administration publique camerounaise est restée jusqu'ici assez loyale. Donc Paul Biya rassemble encore. Pourquoi ? Parce qu'il a encore la possibilité de rétribuer et de punir. Et cela ne nécessite pas d'être toujours présent. On a vu, il n'y a pas si longtemps, des mouvements au sein de l'armée avec la nomination des généraux et la nomination au ministère de la Défense. Tant que Paul Biya aura la capacité de rétribuer et de punir, il sera souverain. Et donc Paul Biya pourra rassembler et rassemblera toujours autour de lui. Il ne manque pas de personnes en quête de notabilité, en quête de prébendes ou en quête de position de pouvoir au Cameroun. À lire aussiCameroun: les interrogations qui entourent la candidature à la présidentielle de Paul Biya Côté opposition, plusieurs leaders se sont déjà portés candidats. Est-ce qu'une candidature unique est-elle encore possible à vos yeux ? Certains rapprochements sont beaucoup plus faciles et envisageables que d'autres. Il est envisageable de voir une coalition entre Cabral Libii et Joshua Osih. Je pense que sur la question du fédéralisme, il y a des passerelles entre les deux. Mais une coalition entre Cabral Libii par exemple et Maurice Kamto est beaucoup moins envisageable parce qu'idéologiquement, on a quand même affaire à deux oppositions radicales. Donc il peut y avoir des coalitions, il faut analyser les compositions possibles et celles qui seraient beaucoup plus de l'ordre de l'impossible.

From writing 13 books to developing over 40 specialized training programs, he has dedicated his career to helping individuals discover their inner strength and resilience.In this powerful conversation, Stew Smith reveals the psychological secrets of overcoming challenges, the critical importance of physical fitness in personal development, and how to transform setbacks into stepping stones toward your ultimate goals.Quotes: "Fitness is the catalyst to everything that is good. You will be a better person because you exercise, you will be smarter, you will be less stressed. You will be able to set goals for yourself, long term goals and learn how to do that, because nothing is immediate with fitness." - Stew Smith"I look at failure as if it's not a failure. In fact, I say get that word out of your vocabulary and call it a learning experience, because you're going to be smarter after this process." - Stew Smith"If we will be intentional of holding that bar high, holding that standard high for our young people, they will rise to meet that.” - Matt BeaudreauActionable Takeaways:The 30-Day Consistency Challenge   - Choose one physical fitness routine you've been avoiding   - Commit to doing it consistently for 30 days, no matter what   - Track your progress and reflect on how consistency changes your mindset and performance      Goal: Prove to yourself that the "best workout is the one you do consistently"Reframe Your Failure Mindset   - For the next 7 days, replace the word "failure" with "learning experience" in your internal dialogue   - After each setback or challenge, write down 3 specific things you learned   - Approach obstacles as experiments, not final verdicts on your capabilities Mental Bandwidth Audit   - List all your current projects, commitments, and side pursuits   - Evaluate which activities truly align with your core goals   - Eliminate or delegate 2-3 low-value activities that drain your mental energy   - Focus on creating congruence between your primary work and side pursuits   - Aim to optimize your mental bandwidth for maximum effectivenessThe Team Support Experiment   - In your next group activity or team project, shift focus from personal performance to team support   - Ask yourself: "How can I ensure my teammates are hydrated, fueled, and taking care of themselves?"   - Practice active listening and providing constructive support   - Observe how this mindset changes team dynamics and individual performanceConclusion: Stew Smith's journey reveals a powerful truth: extraordinary achievement comes from a relentless commitment to growth, resilience, and continuous improvement. Your potential isn't defined by your current abilities, but by your willingness to push beyond perceived limitations. The principles are universal - embrace challenges, reframe failures, stay consistent, and never quit.

Have you ever thought about how obedience shapes a life? Deuteronomy chapter 12 shows us that loving God isn't just about emotion - it's about action. It's about choosing God's way, even when everything around us pulls in a different direction. As the Israelites stood on the edge of the Promised Land, God didn't just give them land—He gave them instructions. Tear down the false gods. Clear out the distractions. Worship only where God says to worship. Why? Because obedience leads to blessing, not just for them, but for their children and their children's children. This chapter reminds us that obedience isn't about rules—it's about relationship. It's about living in a way that shows we trust God, we honor God, and we love God enough to follow Him fully. Join us for this episode of the Woman at the Well Ministries podcast as Erika Klose teaches from Deuteronomy chapter 12, focusing on verse 28: “Observe and hear all these words which I command thee, that it may go well with thee, and with thy children after thee for ever, when thou doest that which is good and right in the sight of the Lord thy God..” Let's explore what it looks like to build a culture of obedience—where our lives, our homes, and our hearts are set apart for Him.

The 5D Academy with Zarathustra explores universal wisdom to foster total freedom from suffering in all areas of your life; health, wealth, love, and self.Each Academy podcast contains valuable insights and takeaways to become the best version of yourself and create an authentic, fulfilling life. Zarathustra transmits 5th Dimensional Quantum frequencies in each episode with transformational tools while discussing different topics to help you maintain this new frequency in your daily life.Zarathustra has created a practical system of transmitting the truth to his audience allowing transformation and freedom from suffering. Spiritual development requires an open heart. It is virtually impossible for a seeker to advance to higher consciousness if they don't love themselves. The belief system which has been ingrained in our cellular memory from childhood that we are not good enough results in a conditioned mind. The conditioned mind holds the false belief that there is something missing in our lives, that we are incomplete, that we need to gain something in order to become happy and whole, which is not true. After a life time of searching, Zarathustra has blended a practical system of Eastern and Western methods and techniques to help the Academy members to free themselves from anxiety, negative thoughts, lack of self-love and self-acceptance and destructive emotional patterns through a systematic way to raise your vibration to 5D Vibrational Frequency, which enables you to live a vibrant life of freedom and happiness.The Key Elements To Freedom:Zarathustra recognizes continuity and consistency are the key elements to freedom. In order to help you achieve your spiritual goals, it's best to have a highly effective spiritual practice, free of dogmas, false beliefs and superstition that helps you raise your vibration to 5D Vibrational Frequency as well as the ability to maintain this newly found higher level of consciousness. This translates to a life filled with inner peace, self-love and happiness which is the goal of every spiritual seeker.New knowledge and benefits are gained with each replay.

In Day 4 of the Shift with CJ podcast, CJ shares practical and realistic health strategies that anyone can implement—no matter how “lazy” you feel. This episode covers how to stay active throughout the day without needing a gym, and how to master portion control without ever counting a single calorie. If you're ready to make weight loss and energy management effortless, this is your blueprint.What You'll Learn:The Lazy Person's Fitness Hack: Foundational Movement CJ introduces four key movement patterns—hinge, pull, push, and lunge—that mimic daily life activities like lifting groceries or walking up stairs. These compound exercises not only improve balance, coordination, and muscle tone, but also burn more calories in less time.Portion Control Without Math Forget calorie tracking. CJ explains the psychological effect of plate size on your appetite (the Delboeuf effect), and why a 9-inch plate could help reduce calorie intake by up to 22%. It's about eating intuitively—stopping when satisfied, not stuffed.The Hidden Danger of Sitting CJ reveals how prolonged sitting reduces fat-burning enzymes by up to 90%. Even if you work out, too much sitting can reverse those benefits. That's why CJ pushes for hourly stretch breaks to get blood flowing, fire up your metabolism, and boost mental focus.Key Takeaways:Foundational movement saves time and maximizes impact. Focus on quality over quantity when doing exercises like deadlifts, rows, lunges, and push-ups.Portion control is about visual cues, not calorie counting. Downsizing your plate resets your mind's perception of fullness.Stretching is metabolism maintenance. Short breaks every hour can undo the metabolic damage caused by prolonged sitting.Small changes lead to big results. It's not about perfection. It's about momentum and consistent wins each day.Movement boosts energy. Breaking up sedentary time doesn't just burn fat—it increases focus, productivity, and mood.5 Things You Can Start Doing Today:Switch to a 9-inch plate for your meals. You'll naturally eat less without even noticing it.Add hinge, pull, push, and lunge exercises to your routine. Start slow, with good form, and track how you feel after each session.Set a timer to stretch every hour. A 5-minute break can include torso twists, neck stretches, or squats.Observe your fullness cues. Eat until you're satisfied, not full. Give yourself 20 minutes before reaching for more food.Write or record a quick voice note after meals and workouts. Build self-awareness by tracking how your body feels and reacts.Final Thought: You don't need to overhaul your entire life to start feeling better. You just need to eat a little smarter and move a little more—consistently. That's how change begins.

              In this episode of The Pet Pig Podcast, titled “Piggy Playlists: How Music Influences Pig Behavior,” host Autumn explores the surprising connection between music and pig behavior. Drawing from her own experiences at Autumn Acres Mini Pet Pigs, Autumn shares how classical music helps calm pigs during labor and reduces anxiety in weaning piglets—often leading to relaxed, curious, and even playful behavior.             She dives into scientific research that supports these observations:               -A 2022 study in Nature found that pigs respond emotionally to music. Calming, harmonious music encouraged positive behaviors like playfulness, while dissonant sounds triggered fear and unease.               -A 2024 study revealed that music-based enrichment reduced stress in pigs, lowering cortisol and salivary alpha amylase levels and decreasing aggression.             Autumn offers practical advice for pig owners:                 -Choose harmonious, calming music (classical is a great starting point)                 -Keep the volume low, as pigs have sensitive hearing.                 -Observe and adjust based on your pig's reactions.                 -Use music consistently to create positive associations.              She encourages listeners to experiment with music in their pigs' environments and share their experiences via Instagram. Autumn emphasizes that music isn't just enjoyable for humans—it's a powerful tool to enhance pig welfare and emotional health.             A thoughtful piggy playlist can improve your pig's mood, reduce stress, and create a more peaceful environment—proving that music truly speaks to all species.
