Podcasts about opening series

Welcome to Day 7, the final episode of our Loving-Kindness Meditation Series! Loving-kindness—is a simple, science-supported practice that helps you cultivate compassion, strengthen connection, and reduce stress reactivity over time. In today's meditation, you'll do a Weekly Review to reflect on where kindness flowed naturally, where it felt blocked, and how to embody loving-kindness in a way that's warm and boundaried. You'll finish with a short loving-kindness (metta) technique you can use anytime—before a conversation, during stress, or as a daily reset. May you go forth with the tools you gathered during this week's loving-kindness journey! ABOUT THIS WEEK'S SERIES Welcome to Loving-Kindness Meditation: A Daily Heart-Opening Series—a 7-day journey into the ancient practice of cultivating a steady, compassionate heart. This isn't "be positive" meditation, and it isn't personality-based inspiration. It's a classical inner training—rooted in timeless yogic reflections on maitrī (friendliness), compassion, joy, and equanimity—so your mind becomes clearer, your nervous system steadier, and your relationships more spacious. Across this week, you'll build a simple, repeatable heart practice using one focused technique each day: a loving-kindness visualization, a single phrase of kindness, calming breathwork, a heart-opening mudra, a heart-center (4th chakra) nurture practice, a layered "heart stack" you can use anytime, and a gentle weekly review to embody what you've learned. Come as you are—guarded, tender, hopeful, tired, or open. Loving-kindness doesn't require a perfect mood. It only asks for a sincere return. In just a few minutes each day, you'll practice opening the heart with steadiness—so compassion becomes less of an idea and more of a lived inner home. This is day 7 of a 7-day meditation series, "Loving-Kindness Meditation: A Daily Heart-Opening Series"  episodes 3465-3471. THIS WEEK'S CHALLENGE - "META-MICRO MISSION" Each day, send one tiny ripple of kindness: silently offer a loving-kindness phrase to yourself, a neutral person, and a difficult moment (not necessarily a difficult person). Keep it light—3 breaths each— and track your streak with a simple checkmark. THIS WEEK'S MEDITATION JOURNEY  Day 1:  Compassion Visualization Day 2:  Affirmation: "My heart is open and safe." Day 3:  Heart Coherent Breath: Inhale for 5, Exhale for 5, Repeat for 10 rounds. (Option: inhale "soften, exhale "kindness.")

The 2025 Major League Baseball season was one of the most memorable in recent history.

Following the conclusion of the Astros early exit in the postseason last year in the Wild Card round, and over the course of the offseason the Astros wasted no time in tampering and bargaining for prospects around the league aiming to make a shot at another postseason. Joining the show back for his first segment of the 2025 season, Dana Brown joins the show along with Sean and Dan and shares a bit of what's been the whole process during the offseason and a few of his intentions behind some of the offseason moves made, along with what to look forward to looking ahead as we've barely scratched the surface of the 2025 MLB season.

Pirates pre-post game host Dan Zangrilli joined the show. Dan is not giving up on his 84-win prediction yet, but the only thing keeping him in is the starting pitching. Dan said the Pirates should be 4-0 after the first weekend. How safe is the job of Derek Shelton a few games in? Dan said starting pitching is the hardest thing to do and the Pirates have that down – but will they get better elsewhere? Dan brought up the players out of position and why the defensive struggles are continuing. Dan said when Oneil Cruz locks in, he can be a force, but we don't know if we'll ever see that. Dan tried explaining to the guys why the organization likes Shelton so much. Dan wants to hear harsher rhetoric from Shelton, but the players love that he will lay on the tracks with them.
