On today's episode, we welcome Gary L. Wimmer, a man whose journey through life and beyond will leave you questioning the nature of existence. In this profound conversation, Gary shares the riveting story of his near-death experience, during which he witnessed a future that seems eerily accurate and learned profound lessons about the universe. His experience wasn't just a brush with death; it was a transcendental voyage that shattered his understanding of reality.Gary's near-death experience occurred after a car accident, but what preceded the event was equally extraordinary. Before the accident, he experienced intense premonitions, telepathic connections, and a deepening sense of the mystical. He recalls walking down the street in Austin, Texas, when suddenly, the monitors—a group of angelic beings—appeared to him in a flash of light. They asked him one crucial question: "Do you trust us?" It was only after he answered yes that he was struck head-on by a speeding car. This marked the beginning of a journey beyond the physical world, where he expanded spiritually, encountered infinite mind, and grasped the profound interconnectedness of the universe.During the interview, Gary L. Wimmer vividly recounts the phases of his near-death experience. He describes the sensation of expanding beyond the Earth, past galaxies, and into a void of infinite love and mind, where he no longer recognized himself as a separate being. "It was pure, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful," he says, capturing the profound joy and fearlessness he felt while traversing the cosmos. It wasn't just an out-of-body experience; it was a glimpse into the very mechanics of creation, where infinite possibilities manifest through infinite love.What's perhaps most compelling is that Gary's experience didn't end with his return to his body. As he re-entered his physical form, he was shown visions of the future—events like 9/11 and the turbulent changes we see in today's world. These visions revealed humanity's struggles but also the hope of a future characterized by enlightenment and peace. It's a reminder that despite the chaos, we are moving toward something greater.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/next-level-soul-podcast-with-alex-ferrari--4858435/support.

TV executive turned stand-up comic and best-selling author Cally Beaton joins Andy to share a powerful story of breakdown, reinvention, told with unflinching honesty. From high powered Hollywood boardrooms to hitting bottom in a psychiatric hospital, Cally's journey is anything but linear — and that's the point.In this episode, Cally opens up about losing control and taking it back on her own terms. How her midlife mental health crisis ultimately pushed her towards a life of greater meaning and connection, and how comedy helped her find her voice. She reflects on the realities of solo parenting, career pivots, social media hypocrisy and the glorious messiness of trying — and often failing — at life. Cally's story is both sobering and sharply funny, brimming with hard-earned wisdom and zero pretence.Five Lessons You'll Learn:You don't have to do everything well, you just have to be willing to begin.Connection is a superpower and it starts with listening to understand, not to reply.Resilience isn't stoicism, it's flexibility. True strength lies in allowing the wobble, not denying it.Profound change often starts in profound discomfort and that's not failure, it's fertile ground.Reinvention has no age limit but it does require letting go of who you think you're meant to be.Host: Andy CoulsonCWC Team: Jane Sankey, Hana Walker-Brown, Mabel Pickering, and Rex FisherSpecial thanks to Ioana Barbu and the brilliant people at GlobalFor PR and guest approaches: podcast@coulsonpartners.com

What is The Future for Cities?

What is The Future for Cities?

Are you interested in urban expansion shifts across 3 decades? Summary of the article titled Global urban structure growth shows a profound shift from spreading out to building up from 2024, by Steve Frolking, Richa Mahtta, Tom Milliman, Thomas Esch, and Karen C. Seto, published in the Nature Cities journal. This is a great preparation to our next interview with Keller Easterling in episode 342 talking about spatial politics and urban infrastructure.Since we are investigating the future of cities, I thought it would be interesting to see global urban structural growth across time and its implications. This article introduces the shift from horizontal to vertical expansion and its effects on resource use, climate and urban living.Find the article through this link.Abstract: We present a new study examining the dynamics of global urban building growth rates over the past three decades. By combining datasets for 1,550+ cities from several space-borne sensors—data from three scatterometers and settlement-built fraction based on Landsat-derived data—we find profound shifts in how cities expanded from the 1990s to the 2010s. Cities had both increasing building fractional cover and increasing microwave backscatter (correlating with building volume), but over the three decades, growth rates in building fraction decreased in most regions and large cities, while growth rates in backscatter increased in essentially all regions and cities. The divergence in rates of increase of these metrics indicates a shift from lateral urban expansion to more vertical urban development. This transition has happened in different decades and to different extents across the world's cities. Growth rate increases were largest in Asian cities. This shift toward vertical development has profound consequences for material and energy use, local climate and urban living.Connecting episodes you might be interested in:No.205R - Role of urban planning standards in improving lifestyle in a sustainable systemNo.289R - A fresh look at contemporary perspectives on urban housing affordabilityYou can find the transcript through ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠th⁠i⁠s link⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.What was the most interesting part for you?

What does a good working life look like in the 21st century? Dr Hilary Cottam, OBE has spent the last five years exploring this question through collaborative workshops she calls 'imagininings', involving all sectors of the post-industrial workforce from gravediggers to consultants. The same resonant themes kept emerging: the need for work that pays the basics, offers meaning, allows space for caring and play, is tied to place, and demands collective, not just individual, change. She discovered that the challenges we face - technological disruption, ecological crisis and a lack of social justice - together provide the springboard for this change. And in the process of putting it all together into her new book, The Work We Need, she also discovered that writing, like change-making, is a slow, humbling process best done in community.  Profound, challenging, generous, inspiring - and very much worth your listen.

According to the American Cancer Society, approximately one in eight men will be diagnosed with a prostate condition during their lifetime. Focused ultrasound offers a noninvasive, radiation-free treatment option for prostate conditions and has been approved in more than 50 countries, including the United States. In this episode of Curing with Sound, we explore focused ultrasound for prostate cancer through the lens of a patient and a patient advocate. Bob Palmer, who underwent the TULSA-PRO procedure—a minimally invasive, incision-free focused ultrasound treatment—discusses his decision-making process and treatment experience. He is joined by Eve Satterthwaite, a registered nurse and patient educator at Profound Medical. She provides an overview of what patients can expect from the procedure and her role in guiding them through treatment. Bob shares how Eve helped him evaluate treatment options after his prostate cancer diagnosis and what led him to choose focused ultrasound, particularly in light of potential side effects associated with surgery and radiation. Eve explains how she helps patients understand their options, outlines the clinical benefits of the TULSA procedure, and addresses common patient concerns. Discussion highlights: Modern Prostate Treatment Options – An overview of the TULSA-PRO procedure, an FDA-approved focused ultrasound treatment that offers an incision-free alternative to traditional prostate cancer treatments, with minimal downtime and reduced risk of side effects affecting quality of life. Informed Choices Through Education – Insights into how clear, comprehensive information about available treatments can help patients make confident, well-informed decisions.

Daily Halacha Podcast - Daily Halacha By Rabbi Eli J. Mansour
The Profound Significance of the Misva of Tefillin

Daily Halacha Podcast - Daily Halacha By Rabbi Eli J. Mansour

Play Episode Listen Later Jun 8, 2025


Tefillin is one of the 613 Misvot of the Torah and among the most iconic symbols of Judaism. It is referenced four separate times in the Torah and is described not with the term "Tefillin," but with the word "Totafot." Each of the four passages is written on the parchments inside the Tefillin, establishing both the arm (Shel Yad) and head (Shel Rosh) Tefillin as distinct Misvot. According to the Rambam, Tefillin Shel Yad and Tefillin Shel Rosh are counted as two separate commandments—Misvot 12 and 13 in his enumeration. This implies that if one cannot wear one of them (e.g., due to a physical limitation), he should still fulfill the other, as each stands independently. However, the Ramban disagrees and views them as parts of a single Misva. The Torah repeats the Misva of Tefillin multiple times, yet the Rambam teaches that repetition does not necessarily indicate separate commandments. Rather, the repetition underscores the importance of the Misva. In fact, one who neglects to wear Tefillin transgresses eight positive commandments —four from Shel Yad and four from Shel Rosh. What Does " Totafot " Mean? The term " Totafot " has numerous interpretations: The Gemara Menahot (34b) explains that "Tot" means "two" in the Katpi language, and " Fot " means "two" in African dialect— totalling four, referencing the four compartments of Tefillin Shel Rosh. Menahem ben Saruq interprets " Totafot " from the root " Hatof " (to speak), reflecting that Tefillin inspires us to speak of Hashem's teachings. Ramban says Totafot is an ornament, a kind of crown or glorious item worn on the head, based on Midrashim and biblical parallels. Hezkuni interprets it as something gazed upon, meant to visually remind the wearer of Hashem's miracles. Kabbalistic sources say Tefillin is a form of "Ot" (sign), symbolizing the covenant between the Jewish people and Hashem. The word "Tefillin" itself derives from "Peli"—to distinguish or to separate—or from " Tefila " (prayer), since Tefillin is primarily worn during prayer. Some suggest it comes from the root "Patil" (binding), as in the Torah's description of Naftali. Philosophical Purpose of Tefillin The Sefer HaHinuch (Misva 421) writes that humans are physical beings drawn to material pleasures. The soul is the counterforce, urging one to rise spiritually. Tefillin serves as a daily spiritual armor , empowering the soul to prevail in its ongoing struggle with the body. The Tefillin Shel Yad is worn near the heart, the seat of emotion and desire, while the Tefillin Shel Rosh rests above the brain, the seat of thought—reinforcing control over both. Tefillin is part of the "triple protection system" described in the Gemara—Tefillin, Sisit , and Mezuzah. A person surrounded by these reminders is far less likely to sin . The Rambam adds that donning Tefillin causes a person to behave with humility, awe, and discipline, shielding him from improper thoughts. Tefillin as a Sign Three Misvot are described in the Torah as an "Ot" (sign) : Tefillin, Shabbat, and Berit Milah. A Jew must always be accompanied by at least two signs testifying to his faith. During the week, Tefillin and Milah serve this role. On Shabbat and Yom Tob, when Tefillin is not worn, Shabbat and Milah function as the two signs. This explains the prohibition of wearing Tefillin on Shabbat—doing so would imply that Shabbat is not a sufficient "sign" on its own. Protection, Reward, and Spiritual Energy Wearing Tefillin not only fulfills a critical Misva but is associated with long life, Divine protection, spiritual clarity , and even atonement . Rabbi Shimon teaches that Tefillin atones for the sin of arrogance and, according to some Midrashim, even for more serious transgressions. The Zohar states that Tefillin draws Divine light around the wearer's head. The famed Baba Sali is said to have sensed when his Tefillin were invalid because he didn't feel this spiritual energy. In fact, studies have been cited showing subtle energy field changes when valid Tefillin are worn. The Gemara in Berachot teaches that those who wake early, clean their bodies, don Tefillin, and pray are considered as if they built an altar and brought a sacrifice. The Midrash Tanhuma says that one who desires to study Torah day and night but is preoccupied with work can still attain that merit through wearing Tefillin. The Spiritual Danger of Neglect The Gemara states that one who never wore Tefillin is categorized as a " Poshe'a B'gufo " —a sinner with his body—one of the most serious categories. Such a person does not merit resurrection and is punished severely in Gehinnam . Some authorities rule that even a person who only occasionally neglects Tefillin is included in this category, especially if done out of contempt or laziness. This explains why many Sephardi communities adopted the custom of donning Tefillin at Minha on Ereb Yom Kippur —to ensure that even the least observant Jews fulfill the Misva at least once annually. Tefillin and the Five Senses Tefillin affects not only the spiritual self but also the five senses : Eyes, ears, nose, and mouth are all situated in the head, thus corresponding to the four compartments of the Tefillin Shel Rosh. Touch corresponds to the Tefillin Shel Yad, placed on the arm and wrapped around the hand. This design serves as a daily reminder to guard our senses and align our behavior with holiness. Summary Tefillin is not just a ritual—it is a powerful spiritual and physical shield . The Torah refers to it repeatedly, highlighting its great value. Tefillin connects the mind and heart to Hashem, serves as a visible testimony to one's Jewish identity, brings protection and humility, and provides spiritual credit equivalent to the study of Torah. One who neglects it—especially willfully—risks significant spiritual consequences. Conversely, one who wears it properly fulfills multiple Misvot and draws down abundant blessing. As we begin our study of the practical Halachot of Tefillin, we now understand why this Misva is treated with such reverence and importance.

Beau shares the heart-wrenching story of his profound connection with his beloved soulmate, Melanie, whose life was tragically cut short when she took her own life. This devastating loss, however, became the catalyst for an extraordinary journey of healing, spiritual awakening, and the discovery of unbelievable forms of afterlife communication. Beau recounts: * Their electrifying soulmate connection and the "one year" that changed his life. * Melanie's personal struggles with past trauma and how she found healing and purpose through breathwork, a gift she also shared with Beau. * The harrowing experience of finding Melanie after her passing. * His first direct communication with Melanie just ten days later during a breathwork session, where a simple question, "Mel, are you here?" was met with a euphoric surge of electricity through his chakras – her undeniable "yes." * The incredible and evolving ways Melanie continues to communicate:     * Chakra sensations for yes/no answers.     * Music playlists on YouTube and Spotify seemingly curated by her.     * Constant signs and synchronicities.     * Powerful and evidential readings with mediums, including Brandy from Brooklyn.     * Daily "Featured Photos" appearing on his phone, assembled by Melanie with new messages.     * Astonishingly, Morse code messages conveyed through physical twitches in his body. * His intensive healing journey, including trips to Bali, a rigorous routine of journaling, fitness, ice baths, and daily breathwork, which became his lifeline. * Profound messages from Melanie about her passing, her purpose, and the nature of existence. * How this journey led him to create the Sunflower Signals Podcast and The Butterfly Effect Retreat to help others. Beau's story is a testament to the enduring power of love, the resilience of the human spirit, and the undeniable reality that our connections with loved ones continue, evolve, and inspire even after physical death.

Ep. 184 (Part 2 of 2) | In the tenth dialogue of the A. H. Almaas Wisdom Series, Hameed Ali addresses what co-host Roger Walsh calls perhaps Inner Journey Home's most profound chapter of all, the chapter on True Nature, as well as subjects he writes about in his autobiographical fragment, Luminous Night's Journey. In the second turning of the Diamond Approach teaching, we transition from exploring individual true nature to boundless true nature—the absolute, ground of all manifestation. Following the mystery of truth, you come to absolute truth, Hameed tells us, and you find a mystery that not only liberates but makes everything happen. Hameed describes the absolute as the radiant blackness before the light, its luminosity awareness, and relates how, in the absolute, the feeling of intimacy is palpable. Here, the soul recognizes “I am home.”Hameed relates how being and nonbeing are integrated, and about how time and space emerge out of true nature. Every moment is a new creation, he explains, not formed by the past or present, but new, instant to instant, from nonbeing to being. Hameed says true nature is the essence of freedom, and that in these troubled times the important thing is to recognize “I am free” and ultimately indestructible, and to be ourselves, grounded by the truth of our inner nature. Towards the end of the conversation, co-host John Dupuy asks Hameed, “What motivates you? Why aren't you simply hanging out being true nature?” Hameed laughs and responds, “I am.” Recorded April 10, 2025.“The idea is to be free. Inwardly.”Topics & Time Stamps – Part 2Beingness is what Hameed calls presence; everything is both being and non-being (00:52)Being in the world but not of this world (04:12)The effects of studying Reichian therapy and breathwork on Hameed's experience and way of teaching (06:32)The body needs to be open and at ease to experience presence; this is why yoga is widely practiced in East Indian traditions (09:17)Is having an ego a necessary stage for waking up? (13:01)Space and time are created by true nature, even though it is timeless (14:43)True nature is the essence of freedom; it is “radically unqualifiable” (19:38)The depths of our experience set the limit on our intellectual understanding (22:53)In these troubled times, the important thing is to recognize “I am free” and be ourselves, grounded by the truth of our inner nature (25:07)Profound equanimity allows deeper compassion to emerge (28:29)The values of true nature are fundamental and eternal; how do we manifest these all the time?

A wide range of perinatal mental health topics come up in my therapy practice, including issues with conception, birth, postpartum, and much more. I frequently see people go through multiple rounds of IVF and other assisted reproductive technologies through years of struggles to have a child. Often overlooked in these attempts is the impact when these efforts do not result in a baby, and this experience needs to be acknowledged and discussed. Multiple attempts with unsuccessful outcomes can be the end of their journey to have a baby. Tough decisions have to be made when age, mental and physical health, and financial resources force an end to their hopes and dreams. Today's episode focuses on the intense grief and profound identity shifts that can occur when all of those best efforts do not result in a baby.  Show Highlights: There is no timeline for the grief and depression someone may feel when their motherhood dream ends. People go into the IVF process believing that persistence WILL result in a child. The relationship with your own body becomes complicated, especially when there are no answers. Dealing with well-intentioned people with unending advice adds to the pressure you feel. This kind of grief becomes invisible. Being a mother might be intertwined with your sense of purpose and identity in the world. Profound, life-altering grief can accompany your loss of identity. Therapy can be helpful and offer you a safe space. Grief does not have to be a hopeless process. It's okay to feel what you feel. Dr. Kat's words of hope to those who are grieving Resources: Call the National Maternal Mental Health Hotline at 1-833-TLC-MAMA or visit cdph.ca.gov Please find resources in English and Spanish at Postpartum Support International, or by phone/text at 1-800-944-4773. There are many free resources, like online support groups, peer mentors, a specialist provider directory, and perinatal mental health training for therapists, physicians, nurses, doulas, and anyone who wants to be more supportive in offering services.  You can also follow PSI on social media: Instagram, Facebook, and most other platforms Visit www.postpartum.net/professionals/certificate-trainings/ for information on the grief course.   Visit my website, www.wellmindperinatal.com, for more information, resources, and courses you can take today!
