Summary:In this episode of Trainer's Bullpen, host Chris Butler speaks with Dr. Geoffrey Desmoulin about the critical research on prone restraint techniques in law enforcement.They discuss the conflicting views on the safety of these techniques, the physiological risks involved, and the implications of the Bronstein case, which serves as a cautionary tale for law enforcement practices. The conversation emphasizes the importance of understanding the biomechanics and physiology behind restraint techniques, particularly the role of CO2 buildup in medicalrisks. In this conversation, Dr. Desmoulin discusses eight critical risk factors for sudden death in prone restraint cases. The discussion also highlights the importance of understanding the physiological responses duringrestraint and offers strategies for law enforcement to mitigate risks associated with respiratory compromise.Takeaways:• Physiological effects of prone restraint can lead to serious medical risks.• The recent Bronstein case highlights the dangers of prolonged prone restraint.• Communication of medical risks is crucial for law enforcement training.• The urgency of repositioning subjects in restraint is critical.• Biomechanics play a significant role in understanding restraint techniques.• Training should incorporate findings from recent research on restraint risks. Obesity increases pressure on lungs and reduces tidal volume.• Drugs like meth and opioids disrupt carbon dioxide regulation.• Anxiety can lead to hyperventilation and increased airway resistance.• Downward force during restraint can compress thoracic vessels.• Time is a critical factor in managing respiratory risks.• Reducing the duration of struggles can minimize health risks.• Research should focus on dynamic immobilization scenarios.Listeners should check out the online courses available at GTD Scientific https://gtdscientific.com/

The FBI says more than $1.6 billion in losses for the elderly have been reported in the first half of the year. ABC's Jim Ryan tells us more.

California's escalating wildfire crisis is forcing a radical rethink in residential architecture. With fires growing in intensity, frequency, and unpredictability, architects, planners, and policymakers are coming together to define a new blueprint for resilient, sustainable living in the wildland-urban interface. In May, I journeyed to Design Hardware for the Spring Design Thought Leadership Summit, something we do four times a  year at Design Hardware to delve into trending ideas and concepts bubbling up through the design and architecture community. After hosting these events for over 6-years at Design Hardware, I always come away with a fresh perspective on emerging ideas and this time was no exception. The idea this time was to isolate the concepts and ideas that are needed now to address climate change, specifically fire related issues and develop them into actionable strategies for building—and rebuilding—homes in fire-prone areas.The day was broken down into two parts. The first was specifically about fire-related building issues discussed during a panel featuring architect Greg Chasen of Chasen Architects and Ben Stapleton and Becky Feldman of the USGBC-CA. The second panel covered Market and supply chain issues being affected by both a surge in demand due to rebuilding and exacerbated by the on-again-off-again tariffs. That program will be published here as well so check back for publication.This panel covers a lot. Thank you Becky, Ben and Greg for taking part and helping move the ball forward with such a challenging and difficult subject.PANELThank you Becky, Greg and Ben. More conversations like this will ultimately make California's shelter industry stronger and more resilient. Please check the show notes for links to the speakers and other resources associate with this talk. Thank you Michele Solomons and Avi Balsam with Design Hardware for hosting these conversations and making them available. That is part of their commitment to the design and architecture community.

Is sweating synonymous with a good workout session? Amy Hudson and Dr. James Fisher address why people sweat and whether sweat is a reflection of the intensity of your workout. You'll hear about the different contributing factors that lead you to sweat, something dogs and humans have in common when it comes to losing heat, and why the lack of sweat may end up turning working out into less of a big deal. Get ready for the sweaty truth! This episode features a listener question related to one of the factors people look at as a potential indication of the quality of their workout or how hard their exercise session was: sweat. Dr. James Fisher kicks things off by explaining why we sweat – and why it has nothing to do with fat loss. Dr. Fisher confirms that, unfortunately, sweat is NOT an indicator of the quality of your workout. Think about someone sweating because they're eating spicy food. Prone to sweating? That's simply a sign that your core temperature is starting to rise. Dr. Fisher lists a couple of contexts in which someone may start sweating and why that may happen. When it comes to losing heat, humans and dogs have something in common. Amy Hudson touches upon the fact that not everyone enjoys sweating while training, and how this often turns exercising into less of a big deal. Remember: sweating isn't a product of how hard your body works or your heart rate. It's simply about the temperature of your body.    Mentioned in This Episode: The Exercise Coach - Get 2 Free Sessions!

You can read the whole text here: https://dougapple.blogspot.com/ +++++++ I'm Doug Apple...and my heart is on fire. (Luke 24:32) Psalm 145:18 says, “The Lord is nigh unto all them that call upon Him…” Well…I'M calling upon Him! Are you? I am calling upon the Lord every day and this is great news! When I call upon Him, He is near to me. I want the Lord to ALWAYS be near to me because I need Him. I need His presence, His love, His light, His direction, His guidance. I want Him to lead me, to teach me, to mentor me. I want to hear Him say, “This is the way, walk ye in it.” I want Him near to me for more reasons than I can count, so with this in mind, I call upon Him, almost continuously. Looking back at Psalm 145:18, I didn't give you the whole verse. Here is what the whole things says, “The Lord is nigh unto all them that call upon Him, to all that call upon Him in truth.” So that's an extra layer, “in truth.” What does it mean to call upon the Lord “in truth”? Well…just be honest. Come to Him as you are. Tell Him all the truth. Don't try to hide anything, and certainly don't try to control your image when talking to God. This is calling upon Him in truth. It also means having true ideas about God. Often, we want to fashion God in our image, but if we want to call upon Him in truth, we have to have true thoughts about Him. He is the King. He is the Creator. He is Father God. He is the Lord of all. He is just and holy and righteous. He is also merciful and loving and kind. So, to call upon the Lord in truth, we have to have clear, true ideas about who we are, and about who He is. And the good news is, in spite of the giant gulf between us and Him, He invites us to call upon Him, and He says that when we do, He will be near to us. James 4:8 says, “Draw near to God and He will draw near to you.” Hebrews 11:6 says that God is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him. Psalm 63:1 says, “O God, You are my God; Early will I seek You; My soul thirsts for You; My flesh longs for You in a dry and thirsty land…” Psalm 42 says as the deer pants for the water so my soul longs after Thee. That's me. Yes, as one of God's redeemed, His Holy Spirit lives inside of me. I don't need to cry out to heaven to get Him to come down. He is already here. He is already as near as He can be. The problem is me. As the old song says, “Prone to wander, Lord I feel it.” So, when I call upon the Lord, I'm wanting to connect more closely with Him. I want to fully live out what He has already promised, which is Him abiding in me, and me abiding in Him. I do that by daily calling upon the Lord, and I'm so glad for this promise in Psalm 145:18, “The Lord is nigh unto all them that call upon Him, to all that call upon Him in truth.” May God bless you today. I'm Doug Apple.

Aries Season Tarot Forecast March 20th - April 18th, 2025 In this episode we dive deep into Aries season, running from March 20th - April 18th, 2025. This season is a major transition point for the entire year! Fresh starts and new beginnings are here. The Sun moves into Aries on March 20th, 2025. Marking the Spring Equinox in the Northern Hemisphere. Globally recognized as the astrological new year! Universal Energies, Different Seasons Both Northern and Southern Hemispheres experience the same zodiacal energies simultaneously. Farewell Pisces, Hello Aries: Shifting Energies Transition from the compassionate, creative, intuitive energy of Pisces. Aries season ushers in: bravery, ambition, independence, creativity, impulsivity, impatience, quick temper, and headstrong mood swings. Time for Action: From Planning to Doing Aries season is the time to act on plans made during fall and winter. "Go time!" - Plant, do, shift, change, or start! The completion point of 2024 is officially here. March 20th, 2025, marks the true beginning of the new year. The Tangible Shift: Dreams into Action The host's personal favorite transition - the tangible feeling of change. Wake up and things feel different - a call to action on dreams. Simple concept: take dreams and put them into action. Encouragement to take small or large steps forward towards goals. Small steps accumulate over time. The marathon analogy: focus on crossing the finish line, not necessarily being first. Pace yourself. What You Need to Know: The Current Cycle The Nodes of Fate: Pisces/Virgo Axis Continues Influence continues through July 2026. Focus on balancing feelings with astute processing. Discerning between feelings and facts. Navigating new and unusual energies. Importance of a relationship with spirituality. Working to release perfectionism or feelings of futility. Emphasis on tiny and mighty day-to-day actions supported by spiritual practices. Significant Shifts in This Cycle March 27th: Venus Retrograde Enters Pisces Venus passed her halfway point in retrograde. Emergence as the morning star after her "powerwash" from the sun. Evaluate what no longer serves wants, wishes, desires, pleasures, and finances. Potential for insights and answers on how to shift forward. March 29th: New Moon Partial Solar Eclipse in Aries Energetic lightswitch flickering on and off. Offering a truly new fresh start in the astrological house it occupies in your natal chart. This house has undergone a full eclipse season refresh, release, and restart (nodes in Aries/Libra July 2023 - Jan 2025). Exciting and seemingly softer than past eclipses due to prior release work. This eclipse feels like saying yes to an opportunity before feeling fully ready, with the Universe indicating readiness for growth. A "good growth" eclipse versus a painful one. March 29th: Mercury Retrograde Enters Pisces Mercury continues its retrograde journey, moving back into Pisces. Potential feeling of stagnation or moving backward when forward momentum is desired. Feels like revisiting old lessons or losing something again. Backtrack into Pisces may evoke feelings from the distant past. Not just about exes resurfacing, but a final cleanup of "ghosts of Christmases past." March 30th: Neptune Enters Aries - HUGE NEWS! Neptune spends approximately 14 years in a single zodiac sign (168-year cycle). Last time in Aries: 1861-1873. An energy signature no one alive has experienced. High vibration; Neptune as the higher octave of Venus, governing dreams, intuition, spirituality, and delusions. Capacity for cleansing, clearing, and offering massive dream and manifestation potential. Can also bring chaos and destruction for reimagining and rebuilding. Uncertainty about how this new 14-year signature will play out. Old ways are definitely up for destruction. Question: What new dream will we create? Personal impact: Focus on the house Aries occupies in your natal chart for bold new dreams. Emphasis on fresh, strong, new, and spiritually grounded dreams. Abundance flowing from imagination and magic. Call to honor ocean goddesses (and Aphrodite) if it resonates. April 7th: Mercury Stations Direct Relief from communication, schedule, and financial snags. This marks the third pass over the same ground in the last four weeks. Two-week post-shadow period as Mercury regains speed. The third pass offers the final lesson or blessing from recent events. Encouragement to stay present and grounded. Pause and take breaths before responding. Direct station in Pisces: deep feels, tears, release, and healing are prominent. April 12th: Full Moon in Libra Gratitude to the goddesses, eclipse season is over until September! A regular full moon for revealing and releasing (in that order). All clear for spellcasting! Libra focus: balance, people-pleasing, and surface beauty. Community call-out (with a nod to Kali Ma) for individual scales of Justice. April 12th: Venus Direct - WHEEE! Blessed be, Aphrodite is reborn! Stations direct in Pisces, bringing a dreamy quality. Tenderness, emotions, and tears likely herald the healing that has occurred. Tears of growth, gratitude, and honoring the inner child/teen and current soul self. This deep cleanse cycle returns "YOU" to yourself at a heart-centric level. Clarity on what is needed for more joy and abundance. April 16th: Mercury Moves into Aries (Again) The narrative continues, but with forward progress this time. Shift in communication to self-centric intentions stated clearly (possibly bluntly). Universe urging clear communication in leadership roles for self-empowerment and modeling equitable behavior. April 18th: Mars Moves into Leo - Exciting! Boost in physical energy. Inspiration and a fire are reignited. The "fill up" that has been missing. Mars (action, drive) finally in a fire sign (Leo) wired for being out front and adored. Potential for significant progress if small actions have been taken during Sun in Aries. Burning off "slow sads" - a welcome energy shift. The Nutshell Story of This Cycle Key takeaway: Take action. Follow excitement and listen to "no." Decisions won't be clear-cut; balance facts with intuition. Venus recharged, Mercury cleansed, Neptune in a new phase, Mars finally moving comfortably. Listen to your body - it holds the energetic score. Everything is changing for the ultimate best. Embrace evolution and change. "Grab the wheel" and direct the new energies. The path won't be linear, but progress will be made. Stirrings that 2025 is a "mash up of all the best parts of our life thus far" - a wild, liberating, blessed, and manifesting "zine." Supportive Practices for This Cycle Meditate Hydrate Move your body Aim for self-advocacy Aim for equity Anchor in your spirituality Pisces Season Recap & Aries Season Intentions Pisces season offered massive somatic healing potential and deep release. Aries season (Sun in Aries) marks a new beginning: rebirth of leadership, hope, potential, and the fire to ignite something wonderful. Cycle directive: Continue to remain present and focus on your vessel. Aries as the Athlete & Warrior: Prioritizing Your Vessel Aries embodies the athlete and warrior. Cannot stand for, protect, or create effectively without an optimally functioning vessel. Learning from athletes: value of repair, recovery, nutrition, and hydration. This cycle is a collective call to prioritize vessel care. Not about perfectionism, but celebration and respect for the soul's home. Caring for the body is loving and supports desired creations and actions. It's Spring! Emerge from the Underworld Emergence from the darkness may feel overwhelming initially ("too bright and too big"). It's okay to go slow ("throw on some shades"). Cannot stay in the "cave" forever. Take the step out. Evaluation phase is over. Feel the wild unknown where anything is possible Aries Basics: Mantra, Place in Zodiac, Element Aries' mantra: "I am." First sign of the zodiac. Cardinal fire sign. "I Can Do This! Let's Start Something." Aries' inherent drive to initiate. Excellent at starting things - "OFF AND RUNNING." Carries strong manifestation energy due to its "young," "new," and often "naive" energy. Prone to beginner's luck. Aries as the Warrior Wired for battle and a valuable ally. Relentless and fresh energy with "sassy salty vibes." Thrives on feedback and pressure - needs resistance. The analogy of two rams butting heads (establishing dominance, training, communication, play). Balanced vs. Imbalanced Aries In Balance: Fights to protect loved ones and the vulnerable; evolves into a benevolent leader (connection to The Emperor tarot); passionate, driven, enthusiastic, and inspiring. In Imbalance: Egocentric, puts self first; argues to win everything (even trivial matters); immature; stirs things up for the sake of it; needs feedback/pressure (workouts as a constructive outlet). Movement for Aries: Burning Off the Heat Aries energy is hot, fast, and furious and needs movement to release heat. Caution against excessive cardio, which can overheat the system. Analogy to a Jack Russell Terrier: smart, energetic, needs engagement and novelty. Think "neuro festive brains" needing stimulation and interest for focused engagement. Requires both movement and cerebral activity. Hydration and Cooling Foods for Aries Season Hydration is crucial Recommendation: half your body weight in ounces of water daily with a teaspoon of pink salt for electrolyte absorption. Importance of cooling foods: green and mint (all forms). Aries Rules the Head, Eyes, and Adrenals: Wellness Practices Connection to headache/migraine issues. Mention of Unicorn Wellness Studio member practices: headstand preps/headstands (7th chakra connection, fresh perspective), crab series/rabbit pose (playful, grounding, cooling, circulation). In Aries Season, Stop and Ask: What am I thinking but not saying? What messaging is trying to get through? What am I subconsciously blocking or pretending not to know? Wellness Bullet Points for Aries Season: Begin or prioritize a movement pattern (unicornwellnessstudio.com). PRIORITIZE hydration. Meditate (5 min frequency reset or 8 min chakra balance). Set a bedtime (7-10 hours, address FOMO). Put time limits on gaming and social media (reduces energetic "heat"). Make time to play outside in fresh air. Share thoughts and feelings with trusted humans. Increase green intake (juice, meals, mint). Lighten scents (peppermint EO, lemon/wild orange incense Additional Resources: Activate 30 - days Guest Access on UnicornWellnessStudio.com Offering 30-min classical Pilates workouts in alignment to the astrological season and lunar cycles and Tandy's 41-day food reset at this link here in preparation of the astrological new year.

Having more than your share of conflict with other people is a common adult symptom of growing up with neglect and abuse. Fighting, arguing, and falling out with people can feel normal when your nervous system is always dysregulated. It can feel like the world is doing this to you. But if it keeps happening, the common factor may be you, and the good news is, you can heal this trauma-driven behavior. In this video I teach why people with CPTSD are so prone to conflict, and what you can do to "cool down" a conversation that's getting heated. I'll also show you how to repair the damage when relationships are damaged, with step by step instructions on the right way to make an apology.

Have you ever felt like stress is running your life? That no matter what you do, you're constantly exhausted, irritable, or dealing with hormonal symptoms like PMS, heavy periods, or brain fog? You're not alone! Chronic stress plays a huge role in hormonal imbalances—especially estrogen dominance. When your body is in survival mode, it prioritizes stress hormones like cortisol over reproductive hormones, leading to a cascade of issues that disrupt your menstrual cycle, energy levels, and overall well-being. In this episode, I'm diving deep into how chronic stress impacts estrogen dominance, the sneaky stressors you may not even realize are affecting you, and ten simple hacks to restore balance and feel like yourself again. Let's break the cycle of stress and reclaim your health!

If we don't address stress, we can't fully heal our hormones." "Most of us are leaning towards estrogen dominance by default—especially after 35. The key is to support progesterone and reduce stressors that tip the balance."
