What is Pure Michigan actually built to do?Pure Michigan is not a “wake up and conquer the world” strain. It's usually a heavy hybrid that leans indica in feel, built more for depth than sparkle.This cultivar is commonly bred from Oreoz x Mendo Breath, which already tells you something. Both parents are known for dense structure, rich flavor, and body-forward effects.From Beehive Farmacy, batch specifics always matter, so check your label. But here's what Pure Michigan typically looks like chemically.• THC often in the high teens to mid 20 percent range• Very low CBD• Minor cannabinoids like CBG sometimes present in small amountsTranslation: this is THC dominant. If your tolerance is low, it can get heavy fast. This is not a microdose-first strain unless you intentionally keep it that way.Common dominant terpenes in Pure Michigan:• Caryophyllene• Myrcene• LimoneneCaryophyllene is the spicy, peppery terpene that also interacts with CB2 receptors, often associated with body relief.Myrcene leans sedating in higher concentrations.Limonene can add a slight mood lift or brightness.When myrcene and caryophyllene sit high together, you usually get that “deep exhale” body experience. Muscles loosen. Thoughts slow. The edges soften.Not guaranteed. But that's the tendency.At moderate doses:• Strong body relaxation• Slower mental pace• Warm, heavy calm• Possible couch gravityAt higher doses:• Sleep pressure• Brain fog• Hard pivot into “I'm done for the night”This is typically not a strain people use for high productivity. It leans evening. Recovery. Decompression.Who is this for:• People looking to wind down• Evening use• Body tension• High stress daysWho should be cautious:• Anyone sensitive to sedation• Anyone needing mental sharpness• New consumers jumping straight into large dosesThe real takeaway here is this: Pure Michigan is more about weight than sparkle. If you're chasing heavy body calm, it usually delivers. If you're chasing clarity and energy, this probably isn't your lane.And like we always say, strain names are branding. The batch chemistry is the truth. Always read the COA. Always start lower than you think.Utah cannabis makes more sense when you stop chasing names and start reading numbers.Keep the Mic on.Fuel the movement. Keep the conversation going.We keep a running list of tools and brands we personally enjoy and actually use.Find everything in one place here:

A mini-review published in Frontiers in Neurology suggests that acupuncture may assist ICU patients in recovering more quickly by relieving pain, lowering sedative use, shortening ventilator dependency, enhancing strength, and increasing days free from delirium Acupuncture may help calm inflammation, boost immunity, and improve blood flow in sepsis patients, offering supportive benefits alongside standard ICU treatment It's not just for managing one symptom: Acupuncture could act as a whole-body support tool in the ICU, easing pain, stress, and sleep issues while reducing drug side effects and helping the body recover Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT) is a needle-free method using fingertip tapping on acupuncture points that offers a gentler alternative for patients wary of traditional acupuncture Other nondrug therapies such as massage, music therapy, and mindfulness contribute to ICU recovery by alleviating anxiety, decreasing pain, and enhancing sleep quality

I always thought manifesting was about thinking, visualizing, and waiting. My talk with Colette Baron-Reid turned that idea on its head. She showed me that the ancient, physical act of drawing is the missing neurological link between a spiritual desire and tangible reality.

She further explores the stages of resentment and provides listeners with a practical six-step process for letting go of grudges. By recognizing triggers, understanding perspectives, and practicing forgiveness, Brianne guides you toward reclaiming your power and emotional freedom.This episode serves as a powerful reminder that healing begins when we confront our feelings and take responsibility for our own happiness.

Anthony Milbourne traveled all the way from Australia to sit down with Ian Bick and share his journey into becoming a correctional officer inside an Australian youth prison. In this episode, Anthony breaks down how his life experiences led him to the job, what daily life was really like inside the facility, and the key differences between the Australian and American prison systems — from food, routine, and commissary to discipline and inmate culture. He also opens up about the violent attack he suffered at the hands of inmates, an incident that ultimately pushed him to walk away from the career. _____________________________________________ #YouthPrison #PrisonOfficer #AustralianPrison #PrisonLife #BehindBars #TrueCrimePodcast #InmateStories #lockedinwithianbick _____________________________________________ Connect with Anthony Milbourne: LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/anthony-milbourne-806b66333 Buy his book: https://www.amazon.com/Psych-Warden-Officers-psychological-account/dp/B0B2TTDCKL _____________________________________________ Hosted, Executive Produced & Edited By Ian Bick: https://www.instagram.com/ian_bick/?hl=en https://ianbick.com/ _____________________________________________ Shop Locked In Merch: http://www.ianbick.com/shop _____________________________________________ Timestamps: 00:00 Violent Prison Attack That Changed Everything 00:25 Meet Anthony Milbourne & What This Episode Covers 00:53 Childhood, Family Life & Early Trauma 03:54 Growing Up in Australia: School & Early Struggles 11:10 Dreams, Ambitions & Early Career Goals 17:40 Art School, Adulthood & Finding Direction 24:42 Career Shift: Entering Law Enforcement 29:04 The Incident That Changed My Life Forever 33:31 Trauma, Recovery & Moving Into Juvenile Corrections 39:42 First Days Working Inside a Youth Prison 45:01 Inside an Australian Youth Detention Center 54:43 Daily Life in Youth Prison: Routine & Structure 01:01:36 Commissary, Prison Food & Inmate Ingenuity 01:07:12 Rehabilitation Programs & Mental Health Inside 01:10:01 Violence, Staff Safety & Gang Attacks 01:21:37 After the Assault: Media, Court & Fallout 01:32:46 Recovery, Career Changes & Personal Loss 01:36:13 Life as a Youth Prison Officer: Daily Realities 01:41:00 Officer Culture, Burnout & Brotherhood 01:44:01 System Failures, Reflections & Writing a Book 01:45:20 Final Thoughts & Lessons Learned Learn more about your ad choices.

Send a textIn this week's episode of the Fragmented to Whole Podcast, I'm exploring what it really means to be whole and how emotional boundaries are what make that wholeness possible.Inspired by the image of a plant that is always changing yet never fragmented, we look at the difference between being unfinished and being fractured. Wholeness is not about being calm all the time or having everything figured out. It's about integration. It's about not abandoning yourself as you evolve.Some of the talking points I go over in this episode include:Why wholeness does not mean finished, but integratedThe difference between fragmentation and changeHow emotional boundaries allow feelings to move through you without taking you overWhy outgrowing identities like “the responsible one” or “the peacemaker” can feel like dyingHow internal safety allows you to stay with yourself through anger, grief, fear, and growthWholeness is not the absence of emotion. It's the absence of self-abandonment in the presence of emotion.You don't need to be finished to be whole. You don't need to be stable in every moment to be unshakable. You are allowed to evolve without losing yourself.Be sure to tune in to all the episodes for grounded insight on emotional maturity, boundaries, and building a life that feels integrated instead of fragmented.Thank you for listening.

On this episode of The Alcohol Minimalist Podcast, Molly reflects on what would have been her mother's 95th birthday and the years lost not only at the end of her life, but throughout decades spent in active addiction. With compassion and clarity, she explores the difference between alcohol dependence and alcohol reliance, and why that distinction matters more than most people realize.Drawing from her recent conversation with Dr. Charles Knowles , Molly breaks down the difference between the small percentage of adults who are physically dependent on alcohol and the much larger group who fall into gray area drinking or alcohol reliance. She explains how neuroadaptation occurs over time, how reinforced thought patterns shape behavior, and why learned helplessness can quietly keep people stuck.This episode is not about blame. It is about progression, influence, and the hopeful reality that most people questioning their drinking are not powerless. Through science, reflection, and practical questions, Molly invites listeners to examine the beliefs that may be giving alcohol more authority than it actually has.In This Episode:Reflecting on the years lost to active addictionThe difference between alcohol dependence and alcohol relianceThe 2 to 3 percent statistic on physical dependenceThe 20 percent gray area drinking categoryHow neuroadaptation and tolerance develop over timeDopamine as a learning signal, not just a pleasure chemicalCue conditioning and incentive salienceThe psychology of learned helplessnessWhy belief shapes behavior and behavior reinforces beliefAlcohol's health risks, including cancer and sleep disruptionWhy low risk drinking guidelines reduce harm, not riskThe importance of examining your belief system around alcoholKey Takeaways:Physical dependence develops gradually through repeated reinforcement and neuroadaptation.Most people questioning their drinking are not physically dependent but are operating in reinforced patterns.Alcohol influences the brain but does not automatically remove agency unless long term dependence has shifted the baseline.Beliefs such as “Once I start, I can't stop” can strengthen neural expectation and reduce effort.Small cognitive shifts precede behavioral shifts, and repeated behavior reshapes the brain.Questions to Reflect On This Week:What belief about alcohol might you be carrying that deserves closer examination?Is there a sentence you repeat internally such as “I need it to relax” or “It helps me connect” that feels solid and unquestioned?What might happen if you approached that belief with curiosity rather than judgment?What is one small step you can take this week to observe rather than act automatically?Resources Mentioned:Molly's interview with Dr. Charles Knowles Alcohol Truths: How Much Is Too Much?If you are questioning your relationship with alcohol, remember that awareness is the first step. Change does not require a dramatic declaration. It begins with curiosity, clarity, and small shifts practiced steadily over time.Low risk drinking guidelines from the NIAAA:Healthy men under 65:No more than 4 drinks in one day and no more than 14 drinks per week.Healthy women (all ages) and healthy men 65 and older:No more than 3 drinks in one day and no more than 7 drinks per week.One drink is defined as 12 ounces of beer, 5 ounces of wine, or 1.5 ounces of 80-proof liquor. So remember that a mixed drink or full glass of wine are probably more than one drink.Abstinence from alcoholAbstinence from alcohol is the best choice for people who take medication(s) that interact with alcohol, have health conditions that could be exacerbated by alcohol (e.g. liver disease), are pregnant or may become pregnant or have had a problem with alcohol or another substance in the past.Benefits of “low-risk” drinkingFollowing these guidelines reduces the risk of health problems such as cancer, liver disease, reduced immunity, ulcers, sleep problems, complications of existing conditions, and more. It also reduces the risk of depression, social problems, and difficulties at school or work. ★ Support this podcast ★

Angela talks to Ari Whitten, the founder of The Energy Blueprint and an expert in mitochondrial health about his comprehensive approach to overcoming fatigue and optimising energy levels by addressing the cellular engines of the body—the mitochondria.  Ari explains how modern lifestyle factors, such as poor light exposure, chronic stress, and nutritional deficiencies, signal the mitochondria to enter a defence mode rather than an energy-producing mode WHAT YOU'LL LEARN: The Cell Danger Response (CDR): Mitochondria have a dual role; they are not just energy producers but also environmental sensors that shift into a defensive state when they perceive threats Circadian Rhythm and Light: Proper exposure to natural light in the morning and minimising artificial blue light at night is critical for regulating the mitochondrial clock and ensuring deep, restorative sleep. Hormetic Stress: Introducing controlled stressors—such as high-intensity exercise, cold exposure, or heat—can actually strengthen mitochondria and increase their capacity to produce energy The Importance of Nutrient Density: Specific nutrients, including CoQ10, magnesium, and polyphenols, are essential "fuel" for the electron transport chain TIMESTAMPS [00:04:15] The "Energy Gap" [00:18:30] Mitochondria as Sensors [00:32:45] The Power of Red Light Therapy [00:52:10] Building Metabolic Flexibility VALUABLE RESOURCES ⁠Join The High Performance Health Community⁠ ⁠Click here⁠ for discounts on all the products I personally use and recommend A BIG thank you to our sponsors who make the show possible The Ultimate Guide to Red Light Therapy  Find out your biological age and how your daily habits are influencing it with DNA, bloodwork and microbiome testing with a Stride One membership - visit https://www.getstride.com/angela/ for 10% off.

What happens when sobriety stops being your whole identity—but honesty still matters? In this episode, I sit down with journalist, creator, and host Cat Greenleaf for a wide-ranging conversation about sobriety without performative seriousness, the exhaustion of high-functioning addiction, and the courage it takes to walk away from something—even when you're good at it. Cat is the creator and former host of Talk Stoop, a groundbreaking celebrity interview show that paved the way for digital content before platforms like TikTok even existed. Now she hosts the Soberness podcast, where she brings her signature warmth and realness to conversations about recovery with celebrities and public figures navigating sobriety in the spotlight. We talk about shame, ambition, therapy skepticism, creative identity, aging, and why "go where the water's warm"—a piece of advice from Brooke Shields that Cat received 16 years ago—might be the most trustworthy life guidance there is. If you've ever looked successful on the outside while quietly unraveling on the inside, or if you've felt that nudge that something in your life is done, this episode is for you. In This Episode: What high-functioning addiction actually looks like and how Cat knew it wouldn't go well from the start Why she spent 10 years sober without attending AA meetings The moment at a wedding that changed everything "I hate therapy" (and why that's perfectly okay) Why Cat is shifting her Soberness podcast from recorded interviews to live storytelling events The "be kind" tattoo story—and why she's having it removed How to know when it's time to walk away from something that's no longer working People's commitment to their own joy (and what that means for the rest of us) Guest: Cat Greenleaf is a journalist, creator, and host of the Soberness podcast. She's the creator of Talk Stoop, where she interviewed celebrities on her Brooklyn stoop before digital content became what we know it as today.

If you're the unicorn in a power suit (or a perfectly neutral sweater), building a life that looks "right" on paper but still craving something freer and more alive — you're in the right place. Hosted by therapist and author Danielle Ireland, this show feels like sitting on the couch with your best friend — if your best friend happened to be a therapist. Together, we untangle burnout, anxiety, pressure, and comparison, and learn how to turn emotions into allies instead of obstacles. This is a space for comfort, community, clarity — and a few laughs along the way. Because you deserve calm without having to earn it.  

As the federal surge winds down, businesses are figuring out what's next. Minneapolis officials released preliminary estimates last Friday showing in one month alone, restaurants and small businesses across the city saw $81 million in lost revenue as a result of the operation. Businesses on Eat Street in Minneapolis were among the many impacted in recent weeks. The business corridor became a site of confrontations and protests in the wake of the killing of Alex Pretti. The Whittier Alliance has been working to support places on Eat Street and in the wider neighborhood during the surge. Anna Schmitz heads the organization and joined Minnesota Now host Nina Moini to talk more about what lies ahead.

In this solo episode of the Flex Diet Podcast, I break down why NEAT (non-exercise activity thermogenesis), and a simple step count, is one of the most overlooked levers for improving body composition, recovery, and performance. I explain how NEAT often drops when calories are reduced, why that can stall fat loss even when you think you're in a deficit, and how using wearables (or even basic tracking) can make subconscious movement visible and easier to improve. I also share how the Flex Diet Cert is built as a complete system for nutrition and recovery, covering interventions from macros (protein, fats, carbs) to NEAT, sleep, micronutrition, intermittent fasting, and more — designed for everyone from general population clients to high-level athletes. I also remind listeners that enrollment for the Flex Diet Cert closes Monday, February 16th, 2026, at midnight Pacific.Sponsors:Fitness Insider Newsletter: https://miketnelson.com/Enroll in the Flex Diet Certification by midnight PST on Monday, Feb. 16.https://miket.me/fdcAvailable now:Grab a copy of the Triphasic Training II book I co-wrote with Cal Deitz here.Episode Chapters:00:30 Flex Diet Cert Closing Tonight (Enrollment Reminder)01:52 Why NEAT Matters: The Underrated Fat-Loss & Recovery Lever02:25 Calories Drop, NEAT Drops: The Hidden Metabolic Adaptation03:10 Modern Life vs. Cave People: Why We Move Less Now03:40 Track Steps to Override It (Wearables, Pedometers & Hawthorne Effect)04:36 When Dieting ‘Stops Working': Step Count Falls Without You Noticing06:03 Make It Practical: Step Targets, Accessibility, and Real-World Tips07:16 NEAT for Recovery & Performance (More Training, More Muscle)07:33 Wrap-Up + Last Call to Enroll + Upcoming InterviewsGet In Touch with Dr Mike:Instagram: DrmiketnelsonYouTube: @flexdietcertEmail: Miketnelson.com/contact-us

This episode of Addicted to Recovery features Harry, who shares his personal journey through addiction, recovery, and fatherhood. He reflects on growing up in West London, navigating family challenges, and being diagnosed with ADHD at a young age. Despite a childhood filled with love, the absence of a consistent male role model and exposure to a tough “lad culture” shaped his identity and influenced early drinking and drug use. Football became both an outlet and an entry point into environments where alcohol and substances were normalised. As Harry entered adulthood, his substance use escalated from social drinking to daily reliance on alcohol and cocaine. He describes maintaining work and responsibilities for a time, but eventually falling into patterns of secrecy, financial strain, paranoia, and emotional instability. The pressure of moving house, building a family, and trying to live up to expectations intensified his addiction. Even becoming a father — which he hoped would change everything — wasn't enough to stop the cycle, and feelings of guilt and shame continued to grow.The turning point came when Harry reached a severe mental health crisis, feeling overwhelmed and suicidal. He recalls moments of deep despair, including walking alone in a forest and later confronting himself in a mirror, which sparked a powerful realisation that he needed help. This moment led him to attend recovery meetings, where he began the process of rebuilding his life. Through recovery, he learned that sobriety wasn't just about quitting substances, but about changing his mindset, letting go of ego, and learning healthier ways to connect with others.Since getting clean, Harry explains how his priorities have shifted towards reliability, honesty, and family life. He talks about becoming a more present partner and father, embracing emotional openness, and redefining what masculinity means to him. Motivated by his own growth, he started a men's mental-health group called “The Man Cave,” offering a supportive space where men can talk openly about struggles such as anxiety, relationships, work pressures, and identity — not just addiction.Overall, the episode highlights themes of vulnerability, accountability, and transformation. Harry's story emphasises that recovery is an ongoing journey of personal change, where learning to drop the mask and ask for help becomes the foundation for a more authentic and meaningful life.

Burnout isn't a weakness—it's often the side effect of carrying responsibility under constant pressure. This episode explores how high performers can protect their mental health without lowering their standards. If you work in conflict-heavy environments (law, leadership, business, high-stakes roles), you'll learn how to shift from outcome-chasing to process mastery, build boundaries that improve efficiency, and borrow recovery habits from sports psychology. About the Guest: Jane Muir is a Miami business law attorney and managing shareholder at Jay Muir & Associates. She shares lessons from her own burnout recovery and her work in high-conflict legal environments. Episode Chapters: 00:03:00 Burnout from responsibility, not weakness 00:04:24 Is burnout “the price of ambition”? 00:06:22 The boundary that changed everything: laptop closed at 6pm 00:07:47 Stop outsourcing happiness to outcomes 00:09:12 “With Winning in Mind”: how top performers get in the zone 00:12:08 Early burnout signs: negativity, frustration, inner critic 00:16:04 Reset after setbacks: reflect, move forward, take breaks, gratitude Key Takeaways: Set a hard stop time to force focus and efficiency. Train for process consistency, not emotional rollercoasters of wins/losses. Use daily self-talk and affirmations to stabilize self-image under pressure. Create simple work-start rituals to enter a flow state faster. When setbacks hit: reflect on progress, then re-engage with “what's next.” 5.

We've started to see spots of what looks to be recovery in our economy over recent months. It's not consistent, but it's frequent enough to give us some hope for the year to come. Westpac is picking a whole lot of OCR hikes from the end of this year, and other forecasts seem to set a similar scene - a better economy is coming, and rates will have to reflect that when the time comes.

Text and Be HeardWhat happens after dry January ends and the Super Bowl confetti settles? We dig into the emotional mechanics that fuel alcohol and gambling habits and show why white-knuckling a month of abstinence won't create the freedom you actually want. You'll hear a clear, practical shift: move from chasing quick highs to building a life powered by natural dopamine, honest routines, and character change that lasts.We challenge the common myths—alcohol as a social must, betting as entertainment—and lay out what they really cost in money, sleep, energy, and self-respect. From there, we walk through spiritual principles like honesty, courage, and discipline as daily practices, not just ideals. You'll learn how self-guided tools and step-based frameworks transform vague intentions into specific actions, and why support—therapy, coaching, faith mentors, and community—acts as the multiplier for growth. Instead of cycling from football to basketball to baseball bets, we offer a map for redirecting your attention toward health, relationships, purpose, and financial stability.Along the way, we share personal insights on finding peace and replacing late-night bets with mornings that matter—gym sessions, focused work, real connection. The goal isn't a perfect streak; it's a steady heart and a free mind. If you're ready to redefine your relationship with alcohol and gambling, anchor your days in routines that compound, and step toward deeper love, wealth, and spiritual connection, this conversation is your on-ramp.

LISTEN WITHOUT ADS: www.patreon.com/dopeypodcastThis week on Dopey! We have the great Kevin Jack McEnroe, son of John McEnroe and (world class heroin addict-in recovery) Tatum ONeil! We start with emails and voicemails and spotify comments - Dustin on his Kratom Replapse and Leroy's crazy finding and flushing heroin on acid! Then we get to the meat of the show with Kevin McEnroe: Kevin McEnroe grew up in a house where everyone already knew his last name. In this unguarded conversation with David Manheim, Kevin talks about being the son of two famous parents while managing fear, secrecy, and responsibility far beyond his years. He describes protecting his mother through her addiction, learning early how to split public image from private truth, and eventually becoming the very thing he swore he wouldn't: a full-blown addict.From opiates and alcohol to liver failure, pancreatitis, and waking up in a hospital bed at 33, Kevin walks us through from denial to collapse. He opens up about selling his first novel while secretly drinking, faking composure, and the humiliation of being known but not respected — recognized as “McEnroe's kid,” but unsure who he was as an individual.This is a conversation about inherited chaos, codependency, ego, shame, and what happens when you finally stop trying to outrun your story. It's about service. About humility. About the strange relief of admitting you don't know what to do.Kevin is sober now. He teaches tennis and he writes every day. He's building a life that feels like his own.ALL THAT AND MORE!!!!!! on this week's brand new episode of that good old Dopey Show!  Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Recovery capacity in menopause is one of the most misunderstood reasons women feel sore, flat, or stuck—even when they're doing “all the right things.”  Let's break down four compelling research studies that challenge the idea that menopause makes you fragile, slow to recover, or incapable of training hard.  You'll discover why rest alone isn't the answer—and how sleep, stress, hormones, and training history quietly change the cost of your workouts. If you've been pushing harder but seeing fewer results, this conversation may flip what you think you know about recovery on its head.  Recovery capacity in menopause isn't about doing less—it's about doing what actually works now. If this episode made you flip your workout routine — share it!

In this episode of Agents of Recovery, Coach Blu and Wendell explore the powerful habit of looking for proof, especially the kind we use to confirm the negative beliefs we hold about ourselves. Together, they unpack why we're so quick to gather evidence that we're not enough, yet often overlook the proof of our growth, resilience, and change.Coach Blu and Window dive into the question: What are you actually looking to prove? They examine how many of us unconsciously search for validation that we're “bad,” broken, or failing, only to discover that when we dig deeper, the evidence doesn't hold up. Instead, what often surfaces is something far more powerful.Please visit our website for more information on Team Addict to Athlete and Addiction Recovery Podcasts.https://www.AddictToAthlete.orgIt's time!

Check out the Disordered Community Space!https://disordered.fm/community-------This episode of Disordered explores the vital role of attention in anxiety recovery. Josh and Drew discuss the core skill of moving your attention while feeling high levels of fear.Many people struggling with anxiety disorders feel their attention is glued to symptoms or intrusive thoughts. Josh describes this as "threat-induced attention," which is a survival mechanism where the brain locks onto perceived danger. You always have agency over your attention. Recovery involves building an "attention muscle" to acknowledge the fear and choose a different focus.Confidence in Attention: Josh shares a personal breakthrough where he felt a massive adrenaline rush on a bus but chose to read a newspaper anyway. This desensitization happened because he trusted his ability to move his attention despite the discomfort.The "Checking State" Trap: Drew explains that many common calming techniques backfire. If you use them to force anxiety away, you end up hyper-focusing on your internal state to see if they worked. This keeps you trapped in the threat cycle.Facing the "Bear": Using a metaphor of a bear in a campsite, the hosts explain that looking away from the anxiety tells the brain the emergency is over. Staring at the anxiety only confirms to your nervous system that you are still under threat.Practical Application: Whether going to the dentist or taking a train, the goal is to move attention toward meaningful tasks rather than internal monitoring."The only way to show the brain and the amygdala that this isn't a threat is to show it with our attention... that this isn't important." — Josh"We cannot operate directly on your anxiety... we can only operate on the way you interact with it." — DrewBuilding confidence in your attention is a gradual process rooted in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Metacognitive Therapy. It requires bravery to look away from the fear to find the path to long-term psychological flexibility.
