The Trump administration is targeting health and scientific research -- often based on whether it includes keywods like "women." This presents the risk that a science vacuum will emerge, which could take years or decades to unwind.Today, as part of our "Some Sunday Context" series, we go back to a moment when there was a huge dearth of research and information about women's health -- and grassroots efforts to fix it.In Boston, in 1969, a group of women got together to share information about women's health, which would eventually lead to writing a 193-page pamphlet, which would eventually lead to the book “Our Bodies, Our Selves.”Jody, Niki, and Kellie discuss why women felt the need to share this basic information about their health, the book's influence over the generations, and whether it's still needed today.Sign up for our newsletter!

John and Bart to talk to Anna Feder about the short films series Resistance of Vision  The brainchild of San Francisco IndieFest founder/director Jeff Ross, with veteran film curator, documentarian, and cinema exhibition consultant Anna Feder serving as the Director of Programming, the Resistance of Vision film festival kicks off with debut presentations across the country, with screenings taking place in locations on each coast, as well as the Midwest and the South.  The four short film programs/topics announced for the inaugural festival are Fight The Power (Racial Justice), Our Bodies, Our Choice (Gender and Reproductive Justice), This Is An Emergency (Environmental Justice), and Which Side Are You On? (Labor and Housing Justice).  Regarding the film selections for the groundbreaking film festival series' debut, Feder said, “As so many people around the country look to find voice for their grave concerns due to actions taken by the current administration or make some kind of sense out of living within this unprecedentedly frightening political climate, these films and film programs help to articulate that and start vital conversations we need to have to educate and inspire change.”  Resistance of Vision is committed to showcasing stories of resilience and the fight for liberation that are often excluded by corporate-controlled exhibition channels.   

The chief foreign correspondent of The Sunday Times and bestselling author of ‘I am Malala' and ‘The Girl From Aleppo' visits the South West. Christina Lamb's work is defined by determination and curiosity to vividly convey life in areas of danger and conflict. How else would the rest of us know about the injustice, the violence, but also the hope that can be found in those dark places? What is the point of bearing witness to the atrocities of war? What difference can journalism make? As one of Britain's leading foreign correspondents, Christina Lamb has never wavered from giving a voice to the unsung heroes of war, often women like the cyclists in Kabul, the Zimbabwean lawyer Beatrice Mtetwa, and the famous Malala. In this talk, Christina Lamb speaks about the defining moments of her career as an author and journalist: travelling with the Mujahidin, the resistance fighting Soviet occupation in Afghanistan during the Cold War, being in a 360 Taliban ambush, and surviving a bus bombing at an assassination attempt on Pakistan's Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto. After 38 years of reporting from the most dangerous places on earth, Christina shares why she still goes to war, asking what we can learn about humans, conflict, and resilience. CHRISTINA LAMB Author and Foreign Correspondent Christina Lamb is one of Britain's leading foreign journalists as well as a bestselling author. Her despatches with the Afghan mujaheddin fighting the Soviet Union saw her named Young Journalist of the Year at the age of 22. She has since reported everywhere from Iraq to Ukraine, Israel to Zimbabwe and been awarded Foreign Correspondent of the Year seven times as well as Europe's top war reporting prize, the Prix Bayeux, the prestigious Lifetime Achievement Award from both the Society of Editors and Women in Journalism as well as the Chesney Gold Medal for promoting the understanding of war, previously awarded to Henry Kissinger and Winston Churchill. She has always particularly focused on what war does to women, and her book Our Bodies, Their Battlefields about sexual violence in conflict was described by leading historian Antony Beevor as ‘the most powerful book' he had ever read and recently recommended by Queen Camilla in a speech. She has written ten books including co-authoring the international bestseller I Am Malala. She is a Global envoy for UN Education Cannot Wait, Honorary Fellow of University College Oxford, on the board of the Institute for War and Peace Reporting, and an Associate of the Imperial War Museum and was awarded an OBE in 2013.

Brian interviews Thomas R. Verny, M.D. Thomas is a clinical psychiatrist, academic, and author of eight books, including The Secret Life of the Unborn Child, and The Embodied Mind: Understanding the Mysteries of Cellular Memory, Consciousness, and Our Bodies. He has taught at Harvard University, University of Toronto, York University (Toronto), and St. Mary's University of Minnesota. Thomas Verny talks about how can loneliness affect your health. Perceived social isolation negatively impacts the physical health of both humans and animals, leading to the activation of the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal (HPA) axis, the body's response to stress, and an increase in depressive behaviours. Social isolation and socioeconomic stress have been associated with enhanced inflammation and an impaired immune response.

Shivaratri is made up of two words – Shiva & Ratri.  The word Shiva means – “Shete tishthati sarvam jagat Yasmin sah shivah shambhuh vikararahitah”  Shiva is the One in whom the entire universe rests, who is changeless and brings auspiciousness to everyone.  Shiva is Pure Consciousness or the very life-spark in our heart.  Consciousness is Sat-Chit-Ananda or Satyam Shivam and Sundaram.  Shiva means auspicious, beautiful. Consciousness alone is truly beautiful because true beauty never fades, is eternal and changeless. Our Body, Mind & Intellect are inert. They appear to be sentient and beautiful only because of reflection of Consciousness.   Ratri is formed of the samskrit root – Raa, which means to give. That which provides happiness and bliss is one meaning of Ratri.  Parvati is one who is born to Parvatraj Himalaya. She signifies Prakriti or Shakti. She is the source of all matter, energy and diversity. In Samskrit, Shiva is masculine gender word. Ratri is feminine gender, is symbolic of Prakriti or Shakti. Maha-Shivaratri is the union of Shiva & Shakti(Parvati).  It is also the night which provides illumination and bliss when Jiva unites with Shiva.   May we do tapasya like Mother Parvati, with single-pointedness, subtlety, purity and persistence to discover our oneness with Bhagawan Shiva and truly celebrate Mahashivaratri.  #shiva #shivaratri #shivarathri #hindu #hindufestival#parvati[marriage, shiva, festival, celebration, fasting, penance, union, wedding]

Today's poem is Our Bodies by Michael Bazzett. The Slowdown is your daily poetry ritual. In this episode, guest host Maggie Smith writes… “I grew up pre-Internet, pre-cell phones. For most of my childhood we didn't have cable TV or a VCR. If I had free time, I was riding my bike, playing outside, or reading a book. We call it “free range” now—the idea that children don't need to be constantly supervised and entertained. There's something about being left to your own devices, and having to be resourceful. Free time is an incomparable gift. It's time to dream, time to imagine your way out of your own boredom, time to invent games or build things with your own two hands.” Celebrate the power of poems with a gift to The Slowdown today.

Today relationship expert Dr. Carol Stoney returns to Never Perfect to deliver more phenomenal nuggets on how to improve relationships and communication. She focuses on the importance of developing agreements on the front end rather than expecting your loved ones to read your mind or do guess work (Dr. Stan Tatkins developed this concept of agreements). Carol brings up a powerful exercise from Dr. John Gottman called “dreams within conflict” in which couples discuss core issues and longings that underlie conflicts. She also distinguishes between “actual crimes” a relationship from less serious issues (using the work of Dr. Brent Atkinson.) These crimes include lying/deception, sexual unfaithfulness, breaking clear agreements, bad, mouthing your partner, violating privacy/personal space, making big decisions without consulting your partner, etc.) To register for Dr. Stoney‘s webinars visit HERE. To hear previous episodes with Dr. Carol Stoney, look for the repairing relationships episode from November 2021, Our Body's Response to Relationships in September 2022, and How to Manage Unsolvable Relationship issues from October 2023.

I am so happy to share my conversation with somatic fitness trainer Lizzy Zima with you today, she is doing something really unique, needed, and I am obsessed with it. Lizzie has in-person and an online studio where she provides ritual fitness and somatic self-care for women so they can "build strength, process their emotions and align with their highest selves." Lizzy has connected the dots with her training and lived experience, that in order to embody our true feminine power, we must own our worth, heal our trauma, and reclaim the self-care practices that keep us connected to our inner strength and guidance. Her online studio is intentionally grouped around emotions so that women can listen to their bodies, meet the need, and then move into their lives with strength inside to handle what is outside of them. She combines weight training, pilates-inspired movement, EFT tapping, meditation and free dance to meet all the needs! She's a safe, attuned cheerleader for women and I could not love her work and her more! She is offering a free month of access to her online studio to all of us, you can access it here and use the code REPROGRAM. https://www.empowerbodymindsoul.com/ Chapters 1:51 The Journey into Somatic and Nervous System Coaching 4:39 Healing Trauma and Building Relationships 6:33 The Importance of Strength Training for Women 9:25 Reconnecting with the Body and Inner Guidance 10:48 The Role of Women as Wise Elders 11:56 Cultural Perspectives on Aging and Wisdom 13:20 Creating Relational Safety and Authenticity 15:19 The Shift from Appearance to Experience in Fitness 19:41 The Power of Authentic Connection Among Women 21:55 Building Community and Sisterhood in Fitness 24:50 Creating Transformative Experiences in Classes 29:23 Intuitive Movement and Self-Trust 34:55 Holding Space for Emotional Needs 36:22 Reconnecting with Our Body's Cues 37:48 The Role of Spiritual Support in Healing 39:53 Centering Practices for Daily Connection 44:33 Building Self-Trust Through Daily Practices 56:55 Embracing the Divine Feminine in Leadership 1:07:29The Importance of Self-Care for Mothers

On July 18th, Los Angeles Review of Books and The Berggruen Institute hosted a panel discussion titled "Writing Climate Futures," featuring David Wallace-Wells, Jenny Offill, Bharat Venkat, and Jonathan Blake. As our planet faces a climate crisis, questions about the role and efficacy of environmental writing assume greater urgency by the day. Through education, envisioning fictitious new worlds, and pushing forward the public discourse, writing holds the power to move the conversation we have around the future of our planet. LARB and The Berggruen Institute convened exciting voices in the climate movement from across genres to discuss how writing can enact change. David Wallace-Wells is the author of The Uninhabitable Earth: Life After Warming (Penguin Random House, 2019), which argues that the state of the world, environmentally speaking, is “worse, much worse, than you think.” He is a weekly columnist and staff writer for the New York Times, deputy editor of New York Magazine, and he was previously the deputy editor of The Paris Review. He writes frequently about climate and the near future of science and technology. Jenny Offill is the author of three novels, Last Things, Dept. of Speculation, and most recently, Weather, which was shortlisted for the Women's Fiction Prize and the Joyce Carol Oates Prize. She is also the recipient of a Guggenheim fellowship. She teaches at Bard College and lives in upstate New York. Dr. Bharat Jayram Venkat is an Associate Professor at UCLA with a joint appointment spanning the Institute for Society & Genetics, the Department of History, and the Department of Anthropology. His forthcoming title—tentatively titled Swelter: A History of Our Bodies in a Warming World— is about thermal inequality, the history of heat, and the fate of our bodies in a swiftly warming world riven by inequality. Dr. Venkat is the founding director of the UCLA Heat Lab, which investigates thermal inequality from a variety of disciplinary perspectives, ranging from biology and history to anthropology and urban planning. Jonathan Blake directs the Planetary Program at the Berggruen Institute. He is the coauthor, with Nils Gilman, of Children of a Modest Star: Planetary Thinking for an Age of Crises and author of Contentious Rituals: Parading the Nation in Northern Ireland.

The Warfare of Our Bodies by Sonrise Church

In today's episode, we're diving into an exciting topic: how GLP-1 agonists, like Ozempic and Wegovy, are not only transforming metabolic health but also influencing the gut microbiome. We'll explore the science behind it and practical ways to optimize your health. What Are GLP-1 Agonists? GLP-1 agonists are medications initially developed to manage diabetes, but they've gained widespread attention for their ability to support weight loss and improve metabolic health. These medications mimic the natural hormone GLP-1, which plays a crucial role in regulating insulin secretion, appetite, and blood sugar. So, What Exactly Is the Gut Microbiome? Now that we've covered GLP-1 agonists, let's shift gears and talk about something equally fascinating: the gut microbiome. This refers to the community of bacteria living in your digestive tract, and it's essential for not just digestion, but also immune function and mental health. The state of your microbiome can influence many aspects of overall health, including your metabolism. How Do Obesogenic Bacteria Work, and What Impact Do They Have on Our Bodies? Speaking of the microbiome, let's look at a specific group of bacteria—obesogenic bacteria. These microbes are particularly skilled at extracting extra calories from food. For example, some gut bacteria break down dietary fiber into short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), which can then be used for energy. But if these calories aren't burned off, they get stored as fat, contributing to weight gain. This imbalance can disrupt the body's energy management. When obesogenic bacteria extract more calories than the body needs, it can overwhelm the system and result in fat storage. This not only affects our waistlines but can also throw off hormones like insulin, leptin, and ghrelin—key players in regulating hunger, fullness, and fat storage. An imbalance in these hormones can lead to issues like high blood sugar and constant hunger, making it harder to maintain a healthy weight. When your gut microbiome is out of balance, a condition called dysbiosis, it often leads to low-grade chronic inflammation, which is linked to both weight gain and metabolic problems. How Do GLP-1 Agonists Affect Our Gut Health? So, how do GLP-1 agonists come into play here? These medications, like semaglutide, can shift the balance of gut bacteria by reducing the number of obesogenic bacteria and promoting healthier strains. This shift helps improve how the body manages hunger, blood sugar, and fat storage, all while reducing inflammation. One of the ways this happens is by increasing sodium butyrate, a short-chain fatty acid produced by gut bacteria that supports gut health and reduces inflammation. This transformation in the gut microbiome might explain why GLP-1 agonists are so effective for weight loss and overall health improvement. How Can I Support Gut Health? If you're already on a GLP-1 medication or considering one, you'll want to support your gut health alongside your treatment. One of the best ways to do this is by focusing on a diverse diet, rich in fiber, prebiotics, and fermented foods, all of which nourish beneficial bacteria.

There's nothing like your health to make you feel defeated. There's nothing like health that makes us feel so much shame about where we're at. Because our bodies are OUR BODIES, they're the homes we live in here on earth - the enemy can often use our health to keep us from experiencing abundance, freedom, joy, and peace.  In this episode, we are joined by Jess's friend, health coach, and author of The Good Food Solution, Meredyth Fletcher. Meredyth discusses how your journey isn't about trying the next fad diet or seeking a quick fix—it's about finding the right balance for YOU. Like Meredyth is with Jess and Jess's family, she will encourage you wherever you find yourself on your health journey. If you feel defeated and sick, this episode is for you. If you love discussing health, this episode is for you. Let's go. Don't Miss: Don't forget to pick up Meredyth's book, The Good Food Solution.. Also, are you interested in working with Meredyth?

Welcome Wild OnesIn this episode, I read my latest BGCL Substack post: Feeling the Earth in Our Bodies. I reflect on the earth's grief and the ways it mirrors our own. As the planet responds to extraction and disconnection, we are invited to remember that we, too, are nature. We feel this grief deeply in our bodies, carrying generations of longing for connection and balance.In This Episode:• A grounding breathwork exercise to connect with our bodies and the present moment.• Reflections on grief as a response to the detachment from our natural selves and the world both individually and collectively.• A journey into rewilding and reclaiming our bodies as sacred vessels of wisdom and truth.• Affirmations and questions for reflection on how to reconnect with our bodies and each other.Rewilding Reflections from the Episode:“The earth is grieving. Beyond the sadness of this autumn season—she is hurting from the extraction, conflict, and suffering that is rampant across this world.”“I have come to refer to my body as my little slice of earth. It is my place for tending and nurturing. A place where I can create safety and seek out wisdom.”“We are collectively feeling a sense that we need each other. That what we have been doing is no longer working. Our bodies are telling us it is time to shift and come home.”Links:Read the original post on Substack: The Earth in Our BodiesSubscribe to the Substack: BGCL NewsletterFollow on Instagram: @blackgirl.countrylivingLearn more on the website: Black Girl Country Living This is a public episode.

In this special interim episode of Quakers Today, host Peterson Toscano (he/him) talks with Wendy Sanford (she/her,) one of the original creators of the groundbreaking book Our Bodies, Ourselves. Wendy shares her role in writing the first edition and reveals how each subsequent edition reflected the input from diverse voices. She discusses the importance of addressing issues of race, class, sexuality, and gender identity in the evolving landscape of women's health and activism. This episode also includes insights from her memoir, These Walls Between Us, a story of friendship across race and class. Featured Segments: Wendy Sanford and the Evolution of Our Bodies, Ourselves Wendy Sanford reflects on the book's origins in the 1970s when it sought to provide trustworthy health information for women. Over the decades, the book has expanded to include voices from diverse communities, addressing issues such as sterilization abuse, prenatal care, and transgender health. Wendy discusses how the book's evolving content reflects the shifting landscape of feminist health activism. Memoir: These Walls Between Us Wendy recently published her memoir These Walls Between Us, which explores her friendship across race and class and the deep personal transformations it sparked. You can find more about Wendy's work on her website. Quotes: "The work is needed as much as ever. The questions are still there: Is it trustworthy information? Is it from a woman's point of view?" – Wendy Sanford "We were a group of white middle-class women. Our book said it was for all women, but the critiques taught us otherwise, and that was a real wake-up call." – Wendy Sanford. "Each time we redid the book, we widened the understanding of who ‘we' meant." – Wendy Sanford. How to Follow Wendy Sanford: You can learn more about Wendy and her work by visiting her website: wendysanford-thesewallsbetweenus.com.

It discusses her views on the tie between Christian Scripture and anti-Semitism. You can find it here: January 2006 essay.

In this episode, Dr. Shanaé Burch, Dr. LeConté Dill, and Dr. Ryan Petteway are in conversation with Mar Gubrium and Dr. Kevon Jackman. They discuss their inspirations and how their poems have ripened and grown with them. In light of the ongoing violence, they invite us to find and create spaces for more “living room” conversations, and reinforce the ongoing need for poetry for the public's health. All are invited to fill in the blank: Casting visions for 2024, public health needs more poems about ______________. This episode references the poems titled “Color Coded Care” by Kevon-Mark Jackman, DrPH, MPH and “My Body, Your Body, Our Bodies” by Mar Gubrium. From the personal to the political, we connect a hospital room in Florida and advocate for reproductive justice in Western Massachusetts with global cries for justice and peace.

It has been found at the top of Mount Everest, the bottom of the ocean, and even inside the human body: plastic, once revered as a modern miracle, is now a global threat. Minimally recycled, it never fully disappears; instead, it simply breaks down into tiny particles called microplastics, which contaminate the air we breathe and the water we drink. In “A Poison Like No Other: How Microplastics Corrupted Our Planet and Our Bodies,” science journalist Matt Simon exposes the far-reaching consequences of this omnipresent material on both our environment and our health. Simon, formerly a staff writer at “WIRED” and now a senior staff writer at Grist, a non-profit media organization focused on climate solutions, joins host Alec Baldwin to discuss the alarming impact of plastic pollution, ways to reduce personal exposure, and the urgent solution he believes is needed to tackle this environmental crisis. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The conversation digs deep into the importance of integrating natural elements and rhythms into our daily lives for enhanced well-being. The two also discuss the disconnect from nature and the importance of coherence within ourselves and with the world around us. Key topics include the dangers of modern LED lighting, the healing properties of natural light and grounding, structured water as an energy source for the body, and the role of frequency in health and wellness.

“It's never too late to start; just set goals 24 hours at a time and add sustainable habits that serve you." - Sherry Shaban In this episode, Sherry Shaban shares her journey from a competitive athlete to dealing with a severe back injury, and how she rebuilt her life and career by discovering the transformative power of fitness. Sherry delves into topics like overcoming injury, the psychology behind pain, and the mindset required for lasting health improvements. Sherry discusses the importance of understanding the body's innate ability to heal and the psychological elements that drive our decisions regarding health and fitness. She stresses the significance of mindset, providing insights into how our thoughts create chemistry in the body and influence our overall well-being. Sherry also explores the concept of intuitive eating, offering practical advice on how to reconnect with our body's natural hunger cues and move away from restrictive dieting.

On July 18th, Los Angeles Review of Books and The Berggruen Institute hosted a panel discussion titled "Writing Climate Futures," featuring David Wallace-Wells, Jenny Offill, Bharat Venkat, and Jonathan Blake. As our planet faces a climate crisis, questions about the role and efficacy of environmental writing assume greater urgency by the day. Through education, envisioning fictitious new worlds, and pushing forward the public discourse, writing holds the power to move the conversation we have around the future of our planet. LARB and The Berggruen Institute convened exciting voices in the climate movement from across genres to discuss how writing can enact change. David Wallace-Wells is the author of The Uninhabitable Earth: Life After Warming (Penguin Random House, 2019), which argues that the state of the world, environmentally speaking, is “worse, much worse, than you think.” He is a weekly columnist and staff writer for the New York Times, deputy editor of New York Magazine, and he was previously the deputy editor of The Paris Review. He writes frequently about climate and the near future of science and technology. Jenny Offill is the author of three novels, Last Things, Dept. of Speculation, and most recently, Weather, which was shortlisted for the Women's Fiction Prize and the Joyce Carol Oates Prize. She is also the recipient of a Guggenheim fellowship. She teaches at Bard College and lives in upstate New York. Dr. Bharat Jayram Venkat is an Associate Professor at UCLA with a joint appointment spanning the Institute for Society & Genetics, the Department of History, and the Department of Anthropology. His forthcoming title—tentatively titled Swelter: A History of Our Bodies in a Warming World— is about thermal inequality, the history of heat, and the fate of our bodies in a swiftly warming world riven by inequality. Dr. Venkat is the founding director of the UCLA Heat Lab, which investigates thermal inequality from a variety of disciplinary perspectives, ranging from biology and history to anthropology and urban planning. Jonathan Blake directs the Planetary Program at the Berggruen Institute. He is the coauthor, with Nils Gilman, of Children of a Modest Star: Planetary Thinking for an Age of Crises and author of Contentious Rituals: Parading the Nation in Northern Ireland.
