About Michael and Jennifer Petracci:Dr. Michael Petracci, DC, and Jennifer Petracci, co-owners of Foundations Chiropractic, turned their daughter's neurological challenges into a mission of neurologically focused chiropractic care. A 2013 University of Western States graduate, Dr. Mike specializes in pediatric and prenatal care with multiple certifications, including Pediatric and Family Chiropractic and Activator Methods. As a PX Certified Pro Doc, he uses INSiGHT Scanning to help kids with ADHD, Autism, Anxiety, and Sensory Processing Disorder.Jennifer, formerly an artist, became COO after their daughter's “perfect storm” inspired her to champion this approach. She leads operations and education, helping families discover its impact. Together, they serve their community with neurologically focused care, creating a foundation for health and wellness that starts with the nervous system. In this episode, Dean Newlund, Michael, and Jennifer Petracci discuss:Starting and running a family business inspired by personal experienceEducating and building trust with families about neurologically focused chiropractic careOvercoming skepticism and the challenge of parental commitmentBalancing emotional investment with the need to let go when families aren't readyStaying motivated and resilient by focusing on positive outcomes and “expecting miracles” Key Takeaways:Families seeking neurologically focused chiropractic care must commit to structured care plans with frequent visits, because only repetition and consistency allow the nervous system to rewire and regulate effectively.Educating families about chiropractic's neurological benefits demands patience and clear communication, since many initially dismiss it as unnecessary or “snake oil” until they personally see results in their children.Practitioners need to balance their desire to help every child with the reality that some parents will not commit, which means learning to let go without guilt while focusing on those ready to embrace the process.Viewing each child's transformation as a potential miracle keeps both parents and practitioners motivated, reframing frustration into gratitude and fueling the perseverance needed to sustain long-term impact. "One of the most important parts of taking care of somebody, from a neurologic perspective, is care planning, and making sure that the care plan is right… It takes repetition in neurology.” — Michael Petracci "A lot of what I see helps this to work is a trust in the other person.” — Jennifer Petracci Connect with Michael and Jennifer Petracci: Website: http://www.foundationschiropracticllc.com/Email: foundationswellness@yahoo.comLinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/DrMikePetracci-FoundationsChiropracticllcFacebook: http://www.facebook.com/foundations.chiropractic.llcInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/foundationschiropracticllc/ See Dean's TedTalk “Why Business Needs Intuition” here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EEq9IYvgV7I Connect with Dean:YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgqRK8GC8jBIFYPmECUCMkwWebsite: https://www.mfileadership.com/The Mission Statement E-Newsletter: https://www.mfileadership.com/blog/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/deannewlund/X (Twitter): https://twitter.com/deannewlundFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/MissionFacilitators/Email: dean.newlund@mfileadership.comPhone: 1-800-926-7370 Audio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions.

Most burnout for healers doesn't come from “doing too much.” It comes from a subtle form of self-abandonment. In this episode, I share the #1 shift that prevents burnout for healers: energetic sovereignty. If you've ever felt drained after sessions, caught in cycles of overgiving, or struggled to hold strong energy boundaries as an intuitive healer, this transmission is for you. What you'll discover in this episode: The real cause of healer burnout (hint: it's not overwork) What energetic sovereignty actually looks like in practice → beyond the buzzword The hidden ways self-abandonment shows up in your sessions → and how to spot it How meeting others “sovereign to sovereign” unlocks deeper transformation Simple but radical practices that restore your energy Why sovereignty amplifies your intuitive channel

(Group Learning Program) - Guided Breathing Mindfulness Meditation and Student QuestionsBreathing Mindfulness Meditation was the primary form of meditation employed by The Buddha to attain Enlightenment. There are many aspects of The Path to Enlightenment that one would need to learn and practice with guidance from a Teacher, however, Breathing Mindfulness Meditation should be among the top priorities for any Practitioner aspiring to attain Enlightenment.The goal of Breathing Mindfulness Meditation is to develop “Right Mindfulness”, “Right Concentration”, and to eliminate the unwholesome root of craving/desire/attachment.All discontentedness is caused by craving/desire/attachment so it is important to train the mind to not have craving/desire/attachment as part of "Developing Your Life Practice”.In this Podcast, David will guide you in a Breathing Mindfulness Meditation session and will accept questions from Students to help you develop your meditation practice and progress forward on The Path to Enlightenment.——-Daily Wisdom - Walking The Path with The BuddhaDedicated to the education of Gotama Buddha's Teachings to attain Enlightenment.https://www.BuddhaDailyWisdom.com(See our website for online learning, courses, and retreats.)Group Learning Program - LIVE Interactive Online Classes, Book, Audiobook, Videos, Podcast and Personal Guidancehttps://bit.ly/GroupLearningProgram|The Words of The Buddha - Pali Canon in English Study Grouphttps://bit.ly/PaliCanonStudyGroupFREE Book - Developing a Life Practice: The Path That Leads to Enlightenmenthttps://www.buddhadailywisdom.com/freebuddhabooksFacebook: https://bit.ly/DailyWisdom-FacebookYouTube: https://bit.ly/DailyWisdom-YoutubePodcast: https://bit.ly/DailyWisdom-PodcastSupport our efforts to share The Teachings of Gotama Buddha with you and worldwide for all people using this link.https://www.buddhadailywisdom.com/supportbuddha#buddhism #learnbuddhism #buddhismclass #buddhismcourse #enlightenment #awakening #dhamma #dharma #buddha #meditation #meditationretreat #meditationcourse #meditationclass

In this episode, Dr. Shaddai Tembo and Adam Marycz reflect on the influence of screen time and how a one-way interaction has influenced how children communicate now. They discuss how videos can influence accents and pronunciations in children, as they are learning from a screen and not real-live experiences. Shaddai and Adam discuss fostering an environment that allows children the space to think and respond, giving them time to consider, learn and develop critical thinking. They acknowledge that attention spans have shrunk so there is pressure to react quicker, highlighting the need to teach responding appropriately rather than immediately. Practitioners will learn more about considering a language-rich environment to allow conversations to blossom, as well as being aware of the effects of allowing time and removing background noise to support learning.

This talk was given by Andrea Fella on 2025.08.23 at the Sati Center in Redwood City, CA. ******* At the time of the Buddha, someone is said to come to the Buddha and asked “[Why] though beings wish to be free of enmity, violence, hostility, and hate, they still have enmity, violence, hostility, and hate?” (Digha Nikaya 21.2.1) We are still asking that question. Conflict seems to be deeply embedded in being human, and is quite pronounced right now. Practitioners now often ask the same question that was asked of the Buddha, and the teachings that were offered then are quite relevant now. During this two part class, we will explore some of the Buddhist teachings that can help us to understand conflict and how to navigate it more skillfully. The first week we will explore the Buddhist understanding of how conflict arises. The second week we will consider some of the teachings about working with conflict and the path to non-conflict. ******* Video of this talk is available at: https://youtu.be/0C65-9EzdIg. ******* For more talks like this, visit AudioDharma.org ******* If you have enjoyed this talk, please consider supporting AudioDharma with a donation at https://www.audiodharma.org/donate/. ******* This talk is licensed by a Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial-No Derivative Works 4.0 License
High-achieving, Type A women often look like they're “holding it all together.” But beneath the Pilates classes, iced coffees, stacks of online shopping, school runs and packed Google Calendars, many of us are silently stuck in functional freeze. This isn't depression in the way people usually talk about it. It's the version where you're still showing up - to work, to motherhood, to relationships - but inside you feel tired, numb, disconnected, exhausted, and unable to fully rest. You pushed too hard, but there's no time to slow down. Today, with Integrative Health Researcher, Practitioner & biology-of-trauma expert Sarah Murphy, we explore what functional freeze actually is, why Type A women burn through minerals and B vitamins faster - and what that means for energy and resilience, the fine line between “still functioning” and being completely disconnected from yourself and practical ways to start being able to spin those plates with the body saying HELP. If you're tired of pushing, crashing, and calling it “normal,” this episode is for you. It will help you understand what is happening inside of your body.
Finalist, Award for Excellence in the Study of Religion, Constructive-Reflective Studies, given by the American Academy of ReligionExplores how Black Buddhist Teachers and Practitioners interpret Western Buddhism in unique spiritual and communal waysIn Black Buddhists and the Black Radical Tradition: The Practice of Stillness in the Movement for Liberation (NYU Press, 2022), Rima Vesely-Flad examines the distinctive features of Black-identifying Buddhist practitioners, arguing that Black Buddhists interpret Buddhist teachings in ways that are congruent with Black radical thought. Indeed, the volume makes the case that given their experiences with racism—both in the larger society and also within largely white-oriented Buddhist organizations—Black cultural frameworks are necessary for illuminating the Buddha's wisdom.Drawing on interviews with forty Black Buddhist teachers and practitioners, Vesely-Flad argues that Buddhist teachings, through their focus on healing intergenerational trauma, provide a vitally important foundation for achieving Black liberation. She shows that Buddhist teachings as practiced by Black Americans emphasize different aspects of the religion than do those in white convert Buddhist communities, focusing more on devotional practices to ancestors and community uplift.The book includes discussions of the Black Power movement, the Black feminist movement, and the Black prophetic tradition. It also offers a nuanced discussion of how the Black body, which has historically been reviled, is claimed as a vehicle for liberation. In so doing, the book explores how the experiences of non-binary, gender non-conforming, and transgender practitioners of African descent are validated within the tradition. The book also uplifts the voices of lesbian, gay, bisexual, and queer Black Buddhists. This unique volume shows the importance of Black Buddhist teachers' insights into Buddhist wisdom, and how they align Buddhism with Black radical teachings, helping to pull Buddhism away from dominant white cultural norms.

What do you think of when you hear “topical herbs”? Chances are, you think about putting herbs on your skin, perhaps in the form of creams, salves, or poultices. But this is only one type of topical application. In herbal medicine, topical use is much broader than applying medicine to the skin (though this is also a critical treatment). Any time an herb comes into direct contact with the tissue it's meant to treat—whether the skin, or the mucous membranes of the respiratory tract or digestive tract—it is acting topically.

So many women I work with have been there — frustrated by diets, supplements, prescriptions, or protocols that don't last. It feels hopeless.

Your body isn't broken — it's asking for help. And with God's perfect design for your body, healing is possible.

The conversation explores the Four Visions of the Yahé tradition, the nuances of cultural appropriation vs. cultural exchange, and the responsibilities of Western entrepreneurs engaging with indigenous medicines. Mariah also discusses how Four Visions reinvests in indigenous communities and why the concept of sacred reciprocity is central to her mission. Join Paul F.

Mariah acts as a bridge in the sharing of plant medicines with the world in order to support humanity's healing. She is the founder of Four Visions, a global leader in supporting indigenous communities through direct commerce partnerships, donations, and sponsoring charitable initiatives.

Since the Buddha's time, certain practitioners have chosen to leave the household life to dedicate themselves completely to formal Buddhist training. Undergoing a ceremony of ordination in which they took monastic vows, these monks and nuns lived the remainder of their lives within a Sangha – community – of other ordained people. In modern Western Zen, you will find a thoroughly confusing situation where ordained people who live fully monastic lives are rare, most ordained people are called “priests” and live householder lives, and practitioners who are not ordained often teach the Dharma and lead lay Sanghas (functions historically reserved for ordained people). What is the use – if any – of continuing with a tradition of “ordination?” I discuss the value of monks, priests, and lay practitioners in the context of Zen as it is currently manifesting in the United States.
Hey Friend, Have you ever been told your labs are “normal,” but you still feel exhausted, anxious, or foggy? You're not imagining things — your symptoms aren't in your head. They're signals. In the very first episode of my brand-new podcast series, I'm pulling back the curtain on: The truth about “normal” labs (and why that doesn't mean optimal health) How missing pieces in your health puzzle are keeping you stuck Why your symptoms will only get louder until you respond The first step toward finally feeling normal again I'm also sharing part of my own story — the moment I realized I wasn't “crazy,” I just didn't have the whole picture yet — and how this shift changed my health forever. If you've been wondering whether you'll ever get your energy, focus, and peace back — this episode will give you hope, clarity, and the next steps to move forward. Your body isn't broken — it's asking for help. And you can heal with the right support.

In this episode, we welcome back Sean Luitjens, VP of Product Strategy and Partnerships at Salary.com. Drawing from his recent conversations with over 20 WorldatWork affiliates, Sean shares his insights on the most pressing challenges and consistent messages from compensation practitioners on the front lines. He also unpacks the “mass confusion” caused by data overload and new compliance demands, the strategic allocation of limited budgets, and future of merit increases. [0:00] Introduction Welcome, Sean! Today's Topic: The Consistent Messages from WorldatWork [5:07] What are the most consistent messages you've heard from WorldatWork affiliates? Practitioners are facing “mass confusion” from the sheer volume of data, technology options, and compliance requirements. Despite increased demands, compensation budgets and headcount have not grown. [17:47] Where are compensation departments focusing their time and budgets? Technology now allows for more sophisticated segmentation and pay philosophy execution than was possible with Excel. The role of the compensation professional has expanded to include communications, as transparency makes it critical to explain the “why” behind pay decisions. [28:17] Are merit increases going away? The effectiveness of traditional merit increases vs. paying for the role and offering performance-based bonuses that are not added to base pay. The practical challenges of any model, whether it's merit-based or role-based, often come down to inconsistent management and lack of buy-in. [34:36] Closing Thanks for listening! Quick Quote “We don't always put ourselves in the seats of the [compensation] practitioner . . . There's so much information coming at them from data, and the one thing that seems to not have changed in the comp budget.”

Hey Friend, If you feel bloated all the time—even when you're doing “everything right”—this is the episode you've been waiting for.
This week's episode is an interview with returning guest, Bonnie Biagioli. She's a somatic breathwork practitioner, certified sound healer, Functional Medicine Health Coach, and yoga teacher who has dedicated years to deep personal work.She shares her powerful journey of breast explant surgery after realizing her implants, which she had gotten over two decades ago, no longer resonated with who she had become. After making the decision to have the surgery, she realized they might have been contributing to health issues such as brain fog, heart palpitations, hair loss, and dark circles under her eyes.She has felt profound changes since day one without them. Most transformative of all, Bonnie has experienced a shift in her heart space — breathing deeper, feeling lighter, and coming home to herself. This conversation is a raw and inspiring reminder of the remembering that comes from listening to your body and embracing it — scars and all.Highlights- Her experience growing up in a cult — and the courage it took to leave at 17- What led her to choose breast implants- How her body and energy transformed after explant surgery- Her journey from seeking love, acceptance, and beauty externally to cultivating them from withinConnect with Bonnie:https://www.withbonnie.com/ https://www.instagram.com/bonniebiagioli/ Related Episode: Whispers of Trusting the Medicine with Bonnie #13If you'd like to connect with Stephanie, you can find her here:Instagram-@schoolofwhispers @__steef___/email-schoolofwhispers@gmail.com If you would like to schedule an acupuncture appointment with Stephanie at her current clinic, Balance Point Acupuncture, you can either visit www.balancepointacu.com or call 561-615-4535 to schedule your appointment today.DISCLAIMER: This podcast is presented for educational and exploratory purposes only.

Hey Friend, Have you ever walked out of a doctor's office feeling more confused—or dismissed—than when you walked in? You're tired. Moody. Foggy. Hormones feel off. But the doctor says your labs are “normal” and you're “fine.” If that frustration sounds familiar, you're not alone—and you're not crazy.

In this episode, Dr. Jim Zeliff, DVM, MBA, joined us to discuss the emergence of mid-level veterinary practitioners. In November 2024, Colorado voters passed Proposition 129, creating a “veterinary professional associate” position. After two years of training and certification, these associates would be able to practice veterinary medicine under the supervision of a licensed veterinarian.The AVMA, AAEP, and many other veterinary associations are strongly opposed to this mid-level role. In the episode, Dr. Zeliff encouraged veterinarians to become involved in their state VMA to increase advocacy for equine and other sectors of veterinary medicine. In closing, he said increased utilization of licensed veterinary technicians is an important part of keeping VPAs out of equine veterinary medicine.The Business of Practice Podcast is brought to you by CareCredit.This information is shared solely for your convenience.

THE BETTER BELLY PODCAST - Gut Health Transformation Strategies for a Better Belly, Brain, and Body
When clients come to work with me, one of the most common stories I hear is: "I've already spent THOUSANDS of dollars healing." This story often comes with a mix of bitterness, grief, and discouragement, but the most dangerous emotion it can come with is distrust. While other emotions like bitterness and grief can be painful or heavy to bear, distrust is one of the most dangerous emotions I see potential clients have because it breaks their ability to rely on others. Relying on others is something we all need to heal, because whether it's a matter of paying an expert to help us do something or simply trusting a friend or family member to care about us and bear our burdens with us, distrust sows the seed of unwillingness to move forward and get what we actually need to heal - others. That's why, on today's episode, I'm digging into the topic of how to handle the distrust that comes along when multiple providers or "solutions" you've paid time, money, and effort on end up in disappointment and pain. On this episode, I'll be sharing parts of my own personal story with distrust and discouragement in my health along with quotes from a book I've been digging into on trust, and stories from the lives of my clients. Whether you're trying to heal your gut, hormones, thyroid, brain, or any other set of symptoms or diagnoses - I hope this episode encourages you and gives you brain something new to chew on as you move forward in healing.
