Michael Stroe (@Plus3Happiness) is a phenomenologist and “happiness concierge.” Through a combination of the Buddhist Fetters & somatic practices, he's allegedly reduced his suffering by ~90%. He claims to consistently live at 9/10 life satisfaction and has skillfully guided others into similar transformations. Today we demystify his journey and discuss concrete practices for oneshotting procrastination, reducing reactivity and permanently raising the floor of your happiness (seriously).Watch on YouTube:Transcript — Michael Stroe​[00:00:00] Daniel Kazandjian: Michael Stroe, welcome to the Metagame.Michael Stroe: Well, thank you for having me. How you doing?Daniel Kazandjian: I'm doing great. I'm really excited for this conversation. You famously, through a combination of Buddhist practices and somatic practices reduced your suffering by around 90%, whichMichael Stroe: Even more these days.Daniel Kazandjian: And now you're teaching other people how to do that, which is fantastic. How did you figure that out? Like what, what's the story there?Michael Stroe: As many great things happened by mistake, it's a total mistake. I was on a more or less sabbatical in like 2023 in Barcelona. Uh, not in a great place in life, honestly.Daniel Kazandjian: Hmm.Michael Stroe: and towards the end of the trip, someone actually, someone that, someone being Frank Yang, which you might be familiar with,Daniel Kazandjian: Mm-hmm.[00:01:00] Michael Stroe: Shared, Kevin Schanilec's website, which I've messaged, and he was very succinct as like, “try Liberation Unleashed” being a Liberation Unleashed being this forum for, for these practicesDaniel Kazandjian: Can you say that again? LiberationMichael Stroe: unleashed. Yes,Daniel Kazandjian: Unleashed. Yeah.Michael Stroe: Yes. And very quickly realize that the way they're doing it is one practice at a time and it's months of work. My ADHD Mind, uh, was like, yeah, but what if we do everything all at once? Um, instead of doing one practice at a time, I basically did eight of them daily for a couple of hours.'cause that's how you do it. Uh, in a bunch of days I had a perceptual shift, which was very interesting, and a bit of a honeymoon for like two days. Uh, that was something that I found funny that um, some people speak of these, uh, awakenings or whatever in terms of like, oh, months of bliss. And I just had two days and on the second day I was in an airport delayed for like five hours, which I was chill about.[00:02:00] But that wasn't necessarily like, whoa, I'm so alive. They're like, yeah, that's not happening. It was a bit better than usual. That perception shift coincided with a bit of a, what should I put it? Less? Uh, stress, let's call it initially. ‘cause I didn't know what was happening. Just less stress, less, uh, overthinking, less, chatter.And actually one of the, one of the few things that I found really interesting somehow coincided with great sleep. I don't know how to explain it seconds to sleep.Daniel Kazandjian: Wow.Michael Stroe: I found it very interesting because I used to get like one hour, two hours, three hours to get to sleep. And I just have ideas and sit in bed for just 30 seconds. I was out and I'm like, okay, this is an interesting benefit. Not gonna lie. Uh, I don't even care about all these benefits, I'm sleeping. Like that's, that's enough. And from then on I sort of returned to simply the scene, the, the initial website where I was guided, uh, to Liberation Unleashed.And I've done the practices on attachment and version. Okay.[00:03:00] And I should mention that immediately after stream entry, which would be the first shift that I had where it kind of, you notice that there's just the body mind, there's no little guy driving this, uh, body around. Um, you start to be aware of the fact that you kind of don't like a lot of the things that are happening.You're trying to pull out experience to such an extent. And, I had 10, 15 years of anxiety and other things on and off. Um, when I started looking at them, uh, I sort of noticed that I had a sort of a version towards so many things even after the first shift in like two more weeks had another one where, oh, like I, my, my, like that was the point where anxiety got reduced both in size and intensity and that was a big deal, even more of a big deal than the first one. ‘cause the first one is, like I said, it was nice, I was sleeping better, but also realizing how much you hate your experience,[00:04:00] let's call it, put it into a certain perspective and realize that from whatever anxiety I used to have or whatever intensity, it went down by like 60, 70%, at least in duration.Michael Stroe: One of the things I've noticed is actually, I used to have anxiety for days and weeks at a time about some stupid thing, or in general, like a generalized anxiety. And I realized that I couldn't. Get anxiety going for more than 30 minutes. As in, if someone distracted me, I forgot I had anxiety, and I'm like, huh, don't understand what's happening.Why do you mean like, I forgot I had anxiety. What do you mean? Like that makes no sense. And sort of like this continued, uh, after a bunch, uh, more time, a few other shifts, but this one especially, were like, oh, there's a dare there. Which for me, there were years of trying self-development, failing at meditation, um, or is nothing working actually.You sort of like, you do all these self-development things.[00:05:00] You, you're gonna do your finances and orders, like you're not happy. You're gonna get a great job, not happily encouraged to do these things. It's like, okay, but like what works? Um, and I had a notion that there's a debt there, but I didn't have a notion about what's possible.It's sort of like more of a faith, even though I'm not religious, more of a fate that it's possible. I didn'tDaniel Kazandjian: Yeah.Michael Stroe: I feel like maybe some of the people that I was following were somewhat trustworthy in this sense.Daniel Kazandjian: So, you just, so to recap, you had 10, 15 years of suffering with like, maybe above average levels of anxiety, is that what you're saying?Michael Stroe: Yeah.Daniel Kazandjian: Yeah.Michael Stroe: Were months at a time where I was to be okay. And the, the moments where I was okay were just the moments where I wasn't doing anything. As you know, I was mostly taking sabbaticals, which is not necessarily a great thing in the sense of like, if you're not active in society, you're feeling great.It's like saying, oh, I'm feeling great on vacation, but I hate my job.Daniel Kazandjian: Yeah, yeah, yeah. So from that, the practices at On Liberation Unleash, the first thing,[00:06:00] Daniel Kazandjian: the thing that allowed you to sleep fast and stuff was, was that stream entry.Michael Stroe: Yes. That would be stream entry. Yeah. AndDaniel Kazandjian: So just,Michael Stroe: Obvious. Yeah.Daniel Kazandjian: Just to bring people on board with that, what is stream entry?Michael Stroe: Stream Entry, if I am to take away from the woo stuff, it's like realizing there's no self, but the problem with realizing there's no self, it's so, uh, abstract, but we, no one, no one know what it means, but it's provocative.But if I'm to be a very mundane phenomenologist, it's just the sense that I'm no longer the little guy in the behind the eyes. I used to call it behind the eyes or behind the, an experience that sort of looks like a watches experience from afar a bit.Daniel Kazandjian: Mm-hmm.Michael Stroe: So realizing that, oh, I guess there's nothing separate from the body, mind world. There's just the body and mind. And my identity is more so that of a witness, uh, not of the tour, let's call it. And it's very simple. Like it's mundane. One of my, uh, most treasured experiences, right? When someone says, uh.[00:07:00] Is it almost disappointing that there is not more there? Because that's what you kind of know. Like, okay, like yeah, they got it. And it's like, of course, like after enlightenment, it's just, just ordinary experience. Um, and yeah, basically just the sense of no longer identifying as the doer. It'sDaniel Kazandjian: Mm-hmm.Michael Stroe: There's no one moving the body mind, just the body mind moving itself. Uh, it doesn't need a do or it's all conditioning. And so,Daniel Kazandjian: Yeah.Michael Stroe: freeing.Daniel Kazandjian: So, so, uh, we might get into more details on this, but what's interesting to me is what you said after that was when you realized that you had a lot of aversion to things.Michael Stroe: Yes.Daniel Kazandjian: So is it that stream entry kind of brought awareness to the suffering that was already, like, you weren't feeling your suffering fully, and then something shifted in terms ofMichael Stroe: Yeah. Um, what happens prior to stream entry? You take all these things as identity. This is mine. Then through stream entry,[00:08:00] You start seeing them as more of an objective, uh, phenomenon or objective processes. Basically what I used to call, uh, um, what I was seeing afterwards as, oh, you know, like some contractions and so on, it used to be like my anxiety, my social, whatever. And it was, it was getting, uh, caught up as identity. And once I was able to see these processes, just those objective processes that I'm able to watch, uh, there is, uh, a subtle detachment. I don't mean detachment in, uh, sort of like going away, but they're actually going towards them.What I'm able to see them for whatever, which is a bunch of thoughts and sensations and that has a very interesting side effect of actually realizing that these are happening, these are conditions and they've been happening for so long. And if beforehand they used to be like, oh, uh, it's me, it's, I'm, I'm bad like this. I'm bad like that. I'm not good enough for whatever. It's like, oh, there's this process. Of these sensations appearing and this story about not being like this or not being like that?[00:09:00] Daniel Kazandjian: Do you have a personal anecdote about that? really illustrates this point?Michael Stroe: Uh, yes, actually, I can tell you how, uh, we, the weakening of a version happened.Daniel Kazandjian: Hmm.Michael Stroe: Uh, there was this particular day I was in my parents' house in the countryside and for some reason, some of my friends, not just one, were not answering my messages. And I used to have anxiety about this thing for, uh, both relationships and of both kinds of friends and, and anyway, about people not responding.And I used to have three friends and it's like they were not answering my messages and I was kind of going in a loop. What did I do? What did I say? Did I say something? And I was just, I had the moment of watching. I was like, okay, there's this weird process. There are some sensations that are kind of like, not pleasant, but I'm going through all these thoughts.And what happens is that I'm making it worse, but what is this? I was like, there are some sensations I had the moment. The sensations are not that bad. And also, I don't know how I'm making this. Like they're just here.[00:10:00] And that was the moment, like, oh yeah. It's like, why, why am I, what, why am I doing this to myself? And I was moments like, ah, yeah, it's okay. Oh, it's like, I best I'm gonna like if, if this is how bad it feels not to, uh, receive, uh, attention or whatever it was at the time. Like, I don't even remember fully what I was like, it's not that bad. was like, huh. A bit of like, oh, this is no big deal.Yeah. I can just go about my day. Like, I thought it was gonna be worse. The anticipation of this being so bad was what I was amplifying but the sensation themselves was like some amount of contraction in the stomach area. Like, uh, one out of 10. Not a big deal.Daniel Kazandjian: Yeah, so it's almost that there, the raw sensation itself is relatively benign, but then there's some sort of mental content, some story at adding to it.Michael Stroe: Yeah. The mental tension. Like a rat, like basically a rat in a cage.[00:11:00] Michael Stroe: Um, and going through all these stories, going through all these machinations in order to, and this is very important in order to seemingly try to change the sensation, like what should I say for this person to respond to me?Michael Stroe: And then it dawned on me that actually I was not trying to have them respond. I didn't think it was gonna sound bad, but also I didn't necessarily care about them responding. I actually cared about me not having the sensations. And this is one thing that I usually show to people, which is like, if this sensation would be the same, but you were happy, you wouldn't care about the sensation.If you were content with how things are. Whatever happens, happens, you can still be pretty, pretty okay with it. But the problem for me was not the situation, which is like all these people not responding to my messages, like the, the, the anxiety or the amplification was just happening. It's like, I just don't like how I feel right now.I hate this and probably this is the reason why. It's like, is this the reason why it's like, not just some conditioning there. But Yeah.[00:12:00] Daniel Kazandjian: And so what were the practices that allowed you to create a little bit of distance with those sensations and stories?Michael Stroe: I think at, at, at the time I didn't necessarily like I had the materials, right, but the materials were something like, oh, notice in this moment that what you're trying is to look for some other reality than the one you have. Basically that moment I had these people that were not responding to my messages, and the thing that I was was like, oh, I don't have a reality where they're responding to my messages.In current practice, I would frame it like, oh, I didn't get a response from my friends. It's like, oh, I'm looking for this reality somehow. It feels differently and things are different. So it's like, not necessarily that I wanted things to be different, I wanted to feel differently. Oh, I don't have friends that respond to my message quickly.So like, sure. I guess.But when, when, when we were seeing that actually the practice was just seeing things and just feeling a bit to it, it's not a big deal.[00:13:00] And definitely, my practice was a bit different from the one I, uh, show to people right now. Uh, at the time I was doing more inside Heavy, which would be staying that mental tension and seeing that it's just a sensation that we can do something about it.Right now. I ask people to do both that, but also like just sitting with a so-called pain and letting it dissipate.For me it was just sitting in that tension. It's like, okay, I'm sitting in that tension. So what? And it's like, okay, it's not that pleasant, but also. There's no other reality available.There's no other Michael. Sometimes I, I, when I see people being stuck in, it's like, what is your quantum duplicate that somehow has some other sensation? They're not. It's like, okay, so I guess this is what you have right now. Is it that bad? And sometimes I make these weird analogies, which is like, imagine you've hit your leg very badly in the furniture.Would you trade these sensations for those sensations? Like, no, you go. Then sit with these ones. Maybe you appreciate them more,[00:14:00] Daniel Kazandjian: Hmm. Um, I wanna get back to your story, but one thing I'll, I'll, highlight is what your practice wasn't. It wasn't trying to understand why you happen to be so sensitive to people texting you and it, and like going into the deeper reasoning for your emotions. It wasn't that at all. It was focusing on the sensations themselves.Michael Stroe: Yeah. And what I found is there are cases where the, let's say the story unbundling, which I would call it, is helpful.For the sake of reducing suffering, there is minimal need for that. You need to see that the story is a story, which is a bunch of thoughts, and the sensations are conditioned, arising and the like.The impression is that, oh, this anxiety, for example, right now for me, it's happening because of what's happening. But the reality, no, it's happening because all the baggage from the back, all my priors that are being, uh, involved in this particular situations, out of which, let's call it this gate out, which, the anxiety comes up is through this situation,[00:15:00] it's actually the baggage that's to blame, let's say for this. One of the things I usually do, um, lately is, uh, to ask people to, okay, has some meaning, whatever story, right? My story, I was like, there's meaning, and my friends are not pointing my messages. Okay, why is there more meaning to that particular thought compared to my body? 70% water?It's like. Uh, somehow one is more meaningful than the other, but they're both, let's say language markers.They're both tokens and somehow one has more meaning than the other. It's like, is it the meaning or they're just both neutral, but the charge is just because of the conditioning and it helps a bit putting on the per circuit. Like you have two stories or you have two sentences. is charged, one is not charged.It's like, how exactly is the story charged experience wise? What exactly is the charge? Oh, some sensations. Yes. So it's not the story. And through just sitting with them, they eventually were like, oh, I guess the story.[00:16:00] It was the sensations that I was resisting.Daniel Kazandjian: Yeah. maybe it'd be worth spelling this out a little bit more. It's like there's a storyMichael Stroe: Yes.Daniel Kazandjian: And then there's a sensory experience in the body, like some, some knot in your gut or something like that, or like a buzzing sensation somewhere. And then those two things are very tightly coupled or correlated. And so the story itself feels charged.What's the process of disentangling those two things?Michael Stroe: Well, the first step is usually to take away from the story as in, oh, this thing happened, this thing happened, this thing happens. It's like, okay, all those things happen, but what's happening right now? It's like me, I'm looking for some other reality in the one available. It's like, okay, um, I don't have this reality that I'm looking for where this other thing happened.So it's like, okay, in this moment, right now, what you have, uh, this sensory reality and some thoughts, it's like, okay, that brings you a bit further, into the present, right? So it's like, okay, you make a sentence,[00:17:00] and that sentence is almost like a summary of what happened, but in a very factual way.Right. Like very factual. It's like they didn't say this, okay, so I don't have this experience where I'm looking, I'm looking for them to be different. The next step would be putting the sensations into perspective. And actually that's a very big one.of the things that I notice is if I ask someone, which I have a lot of track questions during my inquiries, I, I need to mention that, uh, I usually ask them, it's like, okay, on a scale of one to 10, how bad are these sensations?And I've gotten some weird responses for some very meaningless situations. Like this email being an eight out of 10, right? Um, it's like, okay, that like an eight out of 10, an email, like he, that torture, that torture level pain, right? So if you ask people, uh, in, in that way, they're gonna, um, compare it with the ideal, how they would prefer to feel in this moment.So it's like, okay, okay, put it in a bit of a perspective, like compared to some actual pain, which is a breaking leg, I think breaking leg is the one I use most often.It's painful enough. And if you try to imagine it's like.[00:18:00] That would be a bad one. It's like compared to breaking a leg, how bad is this pain?It's like, okay, it's one or two. It's like, oh, now we got some perspective. Now we got a foothold to just sit with the sensations. Right? And, and going through these a few steps, uh, you've basically taken away from the story. You've reduced it to something, you are looking for some other reality, and then you have the intensity dropping a bit.Quite a bit actually. And then the last thing is like, okay, I want you to see with the sensation, it's called being called staying in the gap. And what I mean by staying in the gap, it's you tone descendants. I didn't get the response from my friends, right? Some sensations are appearing and being in the gap.It means seeing with those sensations until the thoughts that are happening, the thoughts that are happening somehow it seems. They can, uh, act upon these sensations somehow seem to be about these sensations. And the more you stay in the gap with a sensation, with thoughts,[00:19:00] eventually it's such a, uh, a long time between the sensations appearing and the thoughts that it's like this couldn't be connected.Michael Stroe: It's there's no way that these, there's a way for, for these sensations to be changed by this thought that happened a minute later. Like there's no way of causality in such a way. So it's like,Daniel Kazandjian: Yeah.Michael Stroe: There's two channels. You have the channel of the thoughts, you have the channel of sensation, and it might seem initially that they're glued somehow, but then it becomes, uh, obvious that no, the sensations are conditioned in a certain way.The thoughts are conditioned a certain way, but there is no, uh, uh, glue in between. There is almost one of the metaphors I use lately actually, the, the channel of sensation is the basketball game the channel of, uh, thoughts or stories is the sports commentary. No amount of sports commentary will change the basketball game.Whoever is your favorite basketball player, whether it's LeBron or whatever, it doesn't even matter. It's like he's not gonna suddenly start shooting trees just because the sports come. It's like, oh, you're shooting wrong. It's like, yeah, that's not gonna happen.[00:20:00] And it's a bit of a, of a more immediate, um, metaphor that it's helped is like, oh, I'm trying to change the game by just commenting on it.Daniel Kazandjian: Yeah, yeah, I love that image. Um, you used the word, uh, conditioning a few times, so like, because of conditioning, there's the glue between the sensations and the thoughts and the stories. How, what do you mean by conditioning here? How does that process work?Michael Stroe: Yeah. By conditioning, I mean all the situations and experiences that have left an imprint on the body mind, they've made a, they made a dent, whether it's in personality, whether it's even in the body. We have a discussion sometimes about VA computation, like.The body does keep the score right. and that conditioning is basically everything you would, uh, actually both, uh, uh, positive and negative. You can have positive conditioning, right? Uh, both, uh, pleasant and negative experiences that make a mark in that condition.[00:21:00] Future experiences based on prior experiences. If you wanna use priors, because we're more in rational spaces, we can use priors, but I'm mostly speaking about the priors at the level of, uh, memories oftentimes and bodily, uh, contractions.Michael Stroe: That's what we use mostly for this.Daniel Kazandjian: So is that like, let's say when I'm younger and I have less awareness,Michael Stroe: Yeah.Daniel Kazandjian: Something happens to me, you know, maybe I feel a sense of social rejection, um, because I don't know, the girl I like didn't text me back or something like that. And then it prompts a really big physiological response that I know.Michael Stroe: Yes.Daniel Kazandjian: Correlate with the story of like, girls not texting me back, and then that's conditioning. That's like the prior.Michael Stroe: Yes. That's basically the pairing of some sensations with some stories.Daniel Kazandjian: Mm-hmm.Michael Stroe: Often, whether the stories can be like a visual memory. Like myself in that situation where I used to feel this way, and it's like, oh, when that happens,[00:22:00] this is, uh, this is the thing. And, and also like when I have that, those pairings, those pairings actually create a certain amount of one unidimensional response.When I feel the sensations, I need to double text them or I need to say, I need to say, I need to say something. I need to say something to them. Right. Um, there is a sense where the degree of freedom is being traded for, uh. A sense of apparent control, right. In that case, uh, the one we mentioned for like, uh, not receiving a message.When I, when this happens, then I do this. But by having, just when a then BI have a degree of conditioning or a degree of conditional, uh, response that actually prevents me from seeing there are maybe 10 other options. And that tends to shrink our personal freedom to such an extent that we often don't realize that we're doing it.[00:23:00] Daniel Kazandjian: Yeah. So let's come back to your story. You got, you got the stream entry. Then you start to recognize the conditioning and all the ways in which you had aversion to your experience. What happened after that?Michael Stroe: Um, I found a guide, a lovely lady in Italy that was recommended to me by some other guide in fairs. She had some availability and we started working together and I started working on the big issues. Right now, when I work with people, I think I work a bit differently.We used to work, we used to work directly with big stuff. One of the big things I had the most directly, which was something like some past relationship thing, and then I started working with a bunch of them. But the reality is, looking back, like I had a certain degree of buy into the processWhen I used to guide the same way with folks that weren't necessarily as bought in or[00:24:00] believing in the process, I can say I had like 25 to 30 people quit after the first month because, um, instead of having more of an upstream, slowly gliding your way to more wellbeing, it's more abrupt. It's like you, you have reactivity that happens in two stages, weakening and breaking.With two big issues, you're gonna have the weakening and then the breaking. But if you don't go with the biggest ones and you just go with. You, you can, you can have more of a smoother path.Okay, what's the biggest thing I can think of? Like, oh, there's this, uh, memory from a relationship. And because I have this memory, I won't have happy relationships in the future. Right.And to work with this, and I can definitely tell you that between getting a weakening of reactivity or a version by myself and dropping, it's been like a month and a half where I cannot necessarily say that was progress.And I, uh, at the level of pedagogy,[00:25:00] I found that actually to be a big issue because I was crazy enough to believe because I got the benefits fast, let's say, and I was on my own. So it's always easy to believe in the process, but I can definitely understand someone being like, I wanna stop.So, and then in another month and a half, um, I kept working with bigger and bigger things. Right now, I, sorry, I separate things and things. Keeping you up at night, which is like immediate short term things that are causing suffering at the moment. And then the next one would be, uh, big goals and desires.The second category. And by starting to work with Maria, I was already working on the big stuff, which is not necessarily ideal if I'm gonna be honest. I don't have the emotional capacity right now. I feel that I end up in a point where I actually help people build the emotional capacity as we're dropping a version.Otherwise it can feel very jarring and that can make people not want to keep the process until finished. Right.[00:26:00] I'd say like a month and a half, beginning of December, 2023, I started noticing that things were kind of like, uh, water of a duck spec. That's what I would call it. Things were smoother. That was kind of where I started noticing. I kinda cannot say, and this is so like a bigger discussion, but. I cannot say I have bad days. A version basically is this mental chaining, uh, of some pain that happened and, and keeping it with you during the entirety of your day, even though it was like two minutes or five minutes of unpleasant sensation.So when that no longer happens, a version by the way, dropping a version is called dropping into non-conceptual. That's basically when you drop the associated between, uh, stories and sensations. And once that, that was dropped, it's like, yeah, you can still feel pain, you can still feel unpleasant sensation, but you're no longer chained as your day goes on into a big feeling that basically colors the entirety of your 24 hours.[00:27:00] And that was the last, so like the, the last days where I've noticed, uh, bad days. So I cannot say that I have had bad days since then. Okay. I hadDaniel Kazandjian: Wow.Michael Stroe: unpleasant situations for a few hours or whatever, but the amount of pain was actually low and there was no suffering. Even once, like, I had someone, like almost lost a friend a bunch of months ago, and there was crying, there was pain. There was no way of me imagining that there are some other sensations available and I fell through it. I cry. Uh, just what seemed natural there was necessarily suffering or resistance and it's, it's also a very point to be, it's not relatable.I cannot explain it for it to make sense. If someone doesn't have it almost seems like I'm trying to sell someone on these. Grant benefit, uh, uh, by now, uh, where it's like, oh, it's so amazing. It's like drugs.[00:28:00] It's like, it is amazing, but also it makes no sense how this could, uh, be experienced. Right?And then when that happened in a few more weeks, I dropped into non duality again. It is a very fast process. I think there is a certain extent to which all these shifts are happening fast when someone really wants it. And I know that the Buddhist say desire is the root of all suffering, but that's a mistranslation.Was the root of suffering. And that's a different, more moment to moment, uh, thing. being open, it's like, yeah, I really want, this has led to very fast progress. And I think actually, um, suffering wise, actually this one actually made the most, uh, difference just dropping a version. I used to have so much of it.It's to color my days to such an extent, days, months, years, whatever you wanna call it, that once it drop, it's like, okay, yeah, I did not expect this was possible.[00:29:00] It's easy to say that it's not possible or there could not be something like this. Okay. It's not perfect, but it's amazing. It's sort of like, that's how I would call it. No, it's amazing. And, and luckily right now, I, I, I feel like I'm not speaking from a standpoint of just me at, with her, there are a bunch of friends, some of them that you already know that have gotten the same experience and they have the same experience or like, no, it's pretty great.Michael Stroe: No,Daniel Kazandjian: Yeah,Michael Stroe: great. Yeah.Daniel Kazandjian: I know you, you also tried to make this a little more legible for people by like mapping it on to commonplace positive experiences.Michael Stroe: Yes.Daniel Kazandjian: You know, and I know it's a totally imperfect process or whatever, but it gives people a sense.Michael Stroe: Yeah.Daniel Kazandjian: maybe you can tell the listeners that, like how different stages mapped onto like the, these commonplace positive experiences.Michael Stroe: I was trying to do this with a friend a bunch of times ago because I was thinking,[00:30:00] what's the marginal value of the next dollar? But actually it was more so what's the marginal value of the next million dollars? It's like, what do you even buy with a bunch of money that gives you happiness? I put my own happiness into, okay, what would I trade this for?And it's for, for as much as it's gonna sound, it's farfetched, I would say, like, I don't know, tens of millions to be like, you have no physical worries for the rest of your life. You would still end up in the place where you're pursuing this.It's already that good. Like there's no convincing. Like I would rather take my pain from years ago just to have it. Yes. So the first, the first steps, treatment three, first one to three. I've humorously, uh, called it getting a free sandwich daily. Um, which is okay. It's nice. Like there are some days when, when a sandwich can, can make you feel a bit better.Uh, it's, it's nice. Um, you got a sandwich, you have a bit of a brighter day, right? There are days where a sandwich does not do anything.[00:31:00] I'm gonna throw that off, right? Uh, and I'll be experimenting, weakening. Um, it's a bit of a, a bit, uh, higher and I would call it almost like having a very relaxing massage daily, right?And it's great. Like you go to have a massage, it's great. You, you are relaxed now, you enjoy your day more. Maybe you are smiling more. It can make most days a bit, uh, sunny, right? also like when, some really bad things are happening and massage probably won't be enough. And there are certain categories of things where.A massage won't do anything like, you know, loss and so on. Um, but the real, the real, uh, thing happens with the dropping of reactivity. And the reason why I call that, um, basically, um, being in a, a, a pretty good vacation all the time is because you no longer want or expect to always feel good.[00:32:00] But that has the interesting side effect of making most days pretty amazing. Dropping reactivity or no longer, like I know, don't want to feel good all the time. And because I don't necessarily want or try to feel good all the time, I'm actually feeling good most of the time.It was the suffering or other, the resistance to those few moments. We were feeling some pain that was coloring all these other moments negatively, let's call it.But when you no longer want that, it does feel pretty, uh, vacay vibes, uh, it's okay. I'm on vacation most days. I don't necessarily need to be somewhere, I don't necessarily need to have a fancy dinner. A lot, a lot of what humans imagine they would feel during a vacation where they're away from work.You can have here and now with work, with life, with all these, uh, trappings of daily life, and it's pretty amazing. And that would be what we spoke so far, which is the trapping already. [00:33:00] And there's a bit of a, there's technically two more steps, but I usually, I only, uh, speak about the first, uh, uh, one, uh, in this, in this, uh, next, uh, in next year row, which is like the fourth, uh, range, I would call it, uh, dropping form and formlessness.And for those that are familiar with Buddhist, uh, terminology, that would be non-duality. And “I-ness”. I-ness probably it's a bit less, uh, common, but no is very obvious. uh, or getting into no. Minus the stories that, uh, were all one and so on. it's a, it's a small, actually a small gain in, in pleasure.You have more of a sense of connection with everything or everyone. You no longer have the sense of things or people being distant from you. You have the sense that you're in one world simulation, which is interesting, but I found it compared to not having a version not as consequential.[00:34:00] I have expected, based on how all the spiritual people are selling nonduality to feel amazing, connected. It's like you do feel connected or actually it's more correctly framed, disconnected. Like, I'm not, we are not all one necessarily, which is like, uh, further inside it's like, okay, we're all in one.It's like we're close by distance is an illusion. Pretty great. Pretty great, right? But in terms of suffering reduction, I would've expected it to be more, but it was like 5%. A cool 5%, right? But not what I expected and this wouldDaniel Kazandjian: You're like, disappointed.Michael Stroe: I'm gonna be honest a bit, a bit.Daniel Kazandjian: Yeah.Michael Stroe: I would've expected more people to have sold it to me as this grant thing where everything is amazing. It wasn't necessarily, and this would correspond with the third six, right?And I actually feel that third seven is more impactful, which would be “I-am-ness” consciousness and so on. Uh, the reason why this one actually was, um, profound, I would start with the sense of time.[00:35:00] Sense of time kind of goes away and you realize there were a bunch of sensations and thoughts. When that happens, you have to be a bit more clumsy with your appointments. I'm gonna give people that warning.That's gonna happen, but you no longer have the time pressure. I need you to do this, I need to do that. If you heard people speak about timelessness or the experience of timelessness, this is basically what they were speaking of just now. Just now, just now. And it's pretty amazing. That's just one aspect.The second aspect that I've seen, um, this actually has to do with, um, almost, um, dropping the notion that somehow things are existing in opposites. Where it's like, in this case, it's ugly and beautiful you're dropping the opposites as real categories when, when the opposites seem to be integrated as neither this nor that, neither ugly nor beautiful.I found that everything is more beautiful.[00:36:00] Very few people will be able to relate to this, but there was a joke going around on Twitter a bunch of time ago, which is like, Would you rather get plus three to your own, uh, beauty, or would you give plus three to everyone?And this is in a way giving plus three to everyone's beauty. course, beauty being in the eye of the beholder, uh, but everything from a wall to a flower to whatever you want to tends to become way more, uh, beautiful by, um, via negative, which is no longer saying, saying it's mundane or, uh, boring or whatever you would project upon it.That cancellation of the extremes makes it way more likely that everything is like, has a certain beauty, has a certain vividness to it, that I. I actually wasn't told that it's gonna happen. Uh, but I found it very, very obvious and I'm sometimes, uh, I'm, I'm being caught in, in the metro and[00:37:00] I'm just looking at people with a certain fascination regardless of how they're looking or whatever their gender is, because there is a sense of, wow, look at all these ways that the reality is happening.All these ways that, uh, things have manifested, right.Daniel Kazandjian: Yeah.Michael Stroe: And I guess, uh, the last one, which is very interesting and some might relate it, um, is no longer making things out of images. Here's what I mean. You're looking around the room or you're looking around something. You're noticing, let's say, uh, a basket.The mind or the brain is like, oh, that's a basket. It makes a thing almost like the image that you would see it and gives it a thinness, uh, substantiality. When you just take things as they are, it's an image or if you want to interact with it you can go touch it and so on. But when you compulsively make it a thing, the mental chatter drops a lot.[00:38:00] Michael Stroe: I used to have problems where I used to work in advertising, like outdoor advertisements and I was like Coca-Cola, and it's like, oh, I like, like all these, uh, ads I used to see in the brain were automatically naming them. That goes down because okay, I'm seeing an image, but I don't necessarily need to make it a substantial thing.That drops a lot of the mental chat and also like the compulsiveness of interacting with the world. Um, the benefit of this mostly is that life tends to become very movie-like at this point. When you no longer imagine that things have very distinct boundaries and everything becomes more fluid in that sense, you no longer have the image, the, the, the image that somehow you are outside of the world somehow.You, you, it's one big singularity, if you wanna call it. Um, that tends to make things very easy to move around. If you ever heard, and this is a bit of a, I'm not sure I would give it a trigger or warning,[00:39:00] but I would be mindful that sometimes when in Buddhist, a lot of people know this, know that they're actually very dumb ways of giving insight. For example, if you heard that there is no body, that's one of the dumbest ways of framing it.The actual framing would be the body arises together with everything else. And that wouldn't necessarily give people any type of, uh. Scaries. It's like, oh, okay. So the body is just part of the Raja. And the sense of the body as a thing, as a monolith was just the brain taking a bunch of this junk, uh, sensation and constructing a mental model of what the body would look like.With the seven photos, you no longer need to construct a body as a monolith. You just take sensations as different pings. I used to call it the same way that rain drops. That's how you feel. You no need to hold the frame of there is a body in, in a very, um, uh, experiential way or like one big block of stone.[00:40:00] Have this, the sensations, the body's still there, the organ is still there. You no longer hold the concept of it being a monolith and that I've actually found very relaxing and super easy to do, uh, hard things, physical hard things, or go without sleep for a long time because the body seems to be way, uh, way easier.To process. It's like, oh, there is some unpleasant sensation from tiredness. Okay. Like, it's not that the whole body is tired, it's like tiredness, uh, expresses itself as just this one muscle in the back that it's aDaniel Kazandjian: Yeah, yeah.Michael Stroe: You're no longer like, oh, the body is tired. It's like, no, it's just some sensation. It's not pleasant. That's it. So it's easy to bounce back.Daniel Kazandjian: Um, so this reminds me of a meditation prompt. Uh, it's like a direct pointing prompt of just experiencing the body. Just see, see if you can experience the body as a cloud of sensations as opposed to. The, the mental map or like, maybe a simple one that, that I noticed was if someone says, pay attention to your hand, the sensations in your hand,[00:41:00] you might think you're doing that, but then you'll notice that often there's also an image of the hand and like a sense that you're up here and you're looking down at your hand and like there's a bunch of other stuff happening quite habitually that isn't just the raw sensations of the hand and the raw sensations of the hand are something like, like texture and, and heat and tension and like these more, uh, simple constituent elements.And then the same applies for pain. Or I've noticed when I've had issues with chronic pain, if I just do this type of exercise, it just gets deconstructed into a bunch of neutral sensations.Michael Stroe: Yeah. Direct pointers of this nature are very useful because we tend to interact with the word via abstraction or via fabrication.[00:42:00] But once you see, like into the, let's call it, you realize that, oh, it's actually easier to bear. And as you mentioned, there are a lot of these small pointers that you can give someone that make actually a big dent in your experience, uh, especially are of suffering and pain they finally see experience as is not through the conceptual map.And one of the, because you mentioned the one with the conceptual map, one of the things I actually ask people during the stream entry conversation is, uh, can they imagine an actual tactile sensation? Like, okay, let me try to imagine my feet standing on the floor. So it's like, are you really imagining a sensation or are you imagining the mental body map and where it would happen, is like, oh yeah, no, I'm, I'm imagining the mental body map.There's no way for me to. Imagine a sensation the same way. It's like Exactly. So that helps put things into perspective between what's direct sense experience and what's abstract experience. And you can use abstraction.[00:43:00] It's just though you never confuse abstraction, if you want to call it, the abstraction would be context, right? And enlightenment is just untangling more and more of the context of identity or of concepts into the components of, um, what we would call experience, like context and content. Like that's, that's like the more you take, uh, context and make it content, that's the more enlightened you are, if you want.Michael Stroe: Call it like that.Daniel Kazandjian: I wanna see if we can help people on this a little bit. Obviously, you know, reducing your happiness by 90 or reducing your suffering by 90% orMichael Stroe: Yeah.Daniel Kazandjian: Nine outta 10 happiness is like a pretty good sell. But one of the things you've mentioned, and it's also implicit in the stories that you shared, is this idea of freedom. How there's actually just more degrees of freedom around different areas of life.[00:44:00] And so I wonder if you can speak a little bit more about freedom and then some of the other kind of tangible benefits that you've discovered through this journey.Michael Stroe: Yeah. Um, the biggest degree of freedom, I would say, does come from aversion attachment.I used to have this notion that I should make this amount of money by this age, and I would say that's very common for type A. Uh, once I was no longer held by that attachment, I could actually work toward that direction.Well, in the past I used to be very contracted around not having, that would actually mean and turn, uh, into procrastination. And that's a very common experience where it's imagined that procrastination is somehow. An issue of the situation. I don't have this, I don't have that, but most often with the people at work, we end up seeing that procrastination is just an emotional issue.Procrastination being just the resistance to how I'm feeling and most often how I'm feeling is not that bad.Freedom, it turns out, is a very common conversation for me. It's like, if meditation takes away my ambition?[00:45:00] It's like, wouldn't that be bad? It's like, well, let me frame it differently.Uh, if you were to lose some of these things probably you weren't interested in, but you're gonna do way more of the things that you actually want to do. And none of the people that I know have gotten, uh, this far have somehow lost their ambition. They will have families, they're still doing things, they're doing more things.They're no longer imagining that things should look a certain way and they're not looking a certain way. Turns out that the freedom of choice increases and. From the standpoint, like prior to stream, I imagine that I'm, I have agency in this, uh, frame of, uh, I sort, I control the body mind and I'm me, the self controlling the body mind.It's gonna act on the world. It's like integrating, seeing just the body mind, working with the world. I now see that there are more choices by degree of not denying that there are actually some limitations. Like, I cannot[00:46:00] I cannot, uh, suddenly start, uh, in some language. I haven't spoken before.And, but by seeing the limitation, you actually gain the freedom by denying the limitations that are inherent to, to experience. I'm actually not seeing freedom because I keep holding on to my ideas of what I should be able to do instead of seeing what I'm able to do. So without shooting the experience, you can see the things that could be happening and it becomes, uh, pretty easy.Uh, a pretty, pretty obvious experience after you get it, but before it's sort of like cloudy. in, in terms of freedom, I would say the biggest freedom I found was to, to take on projects or, or, uh, do things that I previously seemed to be unapproachable. Uh, it's my identity, like, oh, who's little me?[00:47:00] Like, uh, imposter syndrome. oh, look at all these people. Um, they're, they're from a big, this big, uh, university. How can I work with them? Right? All these notions of, of importance, it's like, who? Little me.That's from a small town in this eastern European country. Uh, so when you drop identity, it's like, okay, whenever I had that, it's like, oh. They're gonna see that I'm an imposter. Can you see how that is just a sensation in this moment right now, that being an imposter is just a sensation that's all there is to, and some thoughts, but what bothers you is not as much the thought level as much the sensation level. How does feeling an imposter or rather being an imposter, because it seems like I'm being an imposter and it's very common for prior to experiment to have the experience of I am this, I am that, versus, this sensation appearing there is this pattern occurring.So when I no longer make this about some me, some, some, uh, constant identity and adjusting as a pattern, I'm able to actually clean it out because I don't feel every time I'm doing healing that I'm somehow, uh, attacking myself.[00:48:00] Almost a lot of people try to do healing and it goes nowhere. And this is my opinion around therapy.The reason why therapy actually doesn't work is because they have this view of this monolith called self Instead of being a bunch of almost decentralized projects, um, when someone gets stream entry, they finally realize that all those were processes and they weren't necessarily constant and they weren't necessarily owned and they weren't necessarily present.Oftentimes, like the memories Hmm.We identify as, or with any memory, if I, I would invite the, the listeners, any memory they have, if they bring it out, I want them to realize that the experience of a memory, it's a bunch of thoughts and sensations happening now and. I hope they see that this means that the past can only be experienced as a bunch of thoughts and sensations happening now.They cannot experience the past in any meaningful way other than sensations and thoughts happening now. So when that happens, you no longer get lost that much into the thoughts, uh, of the past or into memories, or[00:49:00] you keep identifying with this version of you from 10, 15, 20 years ago that is actually not here. So you're able to be with a, with a, you have the, the freedom to be here now and realize that you have some references to some other so-called past experience. But what you have is just, uh, an, a reference to some memory, some thoughts happening now. that brings you to, like, you need, know, the whole power of now, right?You, to do something to be in the power of now. And this is the funniest one, which is I ask them to, okay, try to imagine the, the, the past and it's just a bunch of thoughts and sensations now. And then imagine your favorite meal in a bunch of hours and see that there are a bunch of thoughts and sensations happening now.And then I asked them, is there some other place other than, than now to be like, do you need to do something to be now? It's like, no. You just have the impression that somehow you are not now. And that opens up a lot of, uh, opportunities to clean up. I think that's the most important when I no longer, um, think that somehow I'm the same guy was five years ago in that relationship,[00:50:00] It brings the possibility of me being like, oh, wait, that relationship, it's a bunch of thoughts and sensations happening now.And that's not something I do. It's just when, when a thinking of the memory occurs, sensations come up. It's like, I did not make those sensations. I did not do the sensing somehow, I didn't do the feeling as much as the feeling happened. And there are a few, uh, pointers for these that make it immediately obvious, but at each level as you go to a pad, you realize almost, uh, in a way actually find that the Buddhist path is very consistent with the Keegan stage.Instead of like me, uh, having this experience, you make everything an object and you basically make more and more of your identity on an object that you can work with.Uh, eventually you make all of your identity. Actually, Reen enlightenment would be a bit past even Kegan five because you make everything,[00:51:00] you make everything an object that can be worked with and you no longer see it as a subjective context.Michael Stroe: Um, yeah.Daniel Kazandjian: Let me let, let, no, that was great. I, so we're talking about freedom and then, um, the, the freedom from. You're past in a way, and I, I kind of wanna sharpen up this therapy thing ‘cause you said something very provocative, which is the reason why therapy doesn't work is the way I understood. It's almost like it's reifying the self.Daniel Kazandjian: Right. It's a discursive practice that's assuming the self actually exists.Michael Stroe: Yes, and it's assuming that identity is an experience instead of like, what's experienced is just a bunch of thoughts and sensation.The way I would frame it, it actually, it, it actually applies both to stream entry and work with reactivity. For stream entry is assuming that somehow you, you can have the experience of the memory or your, uh, basically bringing up something from the past and it's like, oh, that's still happening, that's still active, that's still real.The memory of being this age and having this experience instead of seeing the experience for what it is,[00:52:00] it's like, oh, a bunch of thoughts and sensations happening now, and that's the first one. They're making a thing out of something. That's another experience, and that's the first aspect of considering identity a constant.Right? The second aspect of the, the reason why therapy doesn't work is because action therapy always works after the gap. If I want to, if, if I should, uh, remind people what I mean by the gap. The gap being the space of just sensations. No dots have started to try to change your experience. So let's say I go to a therapist and I wanna speak about this thing that happened to me in a relationship.I'm gonna draw on and on and on and on and on about what happened. But I'm already into the experience of trying to justify the sensation or change the sensation. I'm past the gap, and at no point I'm actually feeling my, my feelings. Feeling my feelings does not mean sobbing and going through this, oh, this person did this to me and they, this, this, to me.It's like, that's not what, staying with the sensation, that's not feeling your emotion, feeling your emotions or feeling your sensation is just the act of sitting with the initial sensation.[00:53:00] The one with the, the, this issue just started, the ones that you feel without needing to add the layer of, or conceptually the layer of thoughts or the layer of judgment.And because most therapies working in the space of reactive already, they're past the gap. They're the inner version already. Hmm.Most people don't make meaningful progress. Because they're actually not feeling their emotions. They are more or less feeling the amplified sensation, but not the, the, the, the crux or the core of the issue.They're feeling all the fabrication around the issue.Daniel Kazandjian: Let's see if we could apply this to an example. Like let's say, um. Uh, just totally random example, let's say I had a very critical father who whenever he was in the room, his presence, um, warranted like a hyper vigilance in me and my siblings because, and, and he's a bit volatile.[00:54:00] So we just have to be on edge, you know, whenever he's around. And then, so something at a young age developed to protect myself from, from that mechanism or from the potential of attack or something like that. And then it's still latent in the body. And maybe, maybe it's influencing the way I relate to authorities as an adult.And I come to therapy, I come to you who you're like, therapy doesn't work, but we got this other approach.Daniel Kazandjian: How would you,Michael Stroe: therapy for what is, what is me teaching? not trying to take the clients from the therapist. I'm just saying what works and what doesn't.Daniel Kazandjian: Yeah. What, what would work to, to deal with a situation like that?Michael Stroe: First it would be bringing up the memory. And when you bring up the memory, it's immediately coupled with a bunch of sensations, right? Like, it's very obvious that like, you might tell there's something, there might be a lock in, right?Daniel Kazandjian: Yeah.Michael Stroe: So where it's like you have the grand story that they were this, they were there.It's like, okay, but like, that's not happening right now. Me and you, let's say we're in the same room. We're just sitting on a couch, just vibing.[00:55:00] So it's like, oh, what happens right now? It's a bunch of mental phenomena, stories, thoughts, images, and some sensations. It's like, okay, take away the whole, he was this, he was that.He was like, what's happening here at this moment? Oh, a bunch of thoughts. Okay. I want you to notice that. Regardless of what happened in the past, that's not what is happening right now. You might behave as if it was a real, real thing, but if you foresee that your memory of it, it's a bunch of thoughts and some not so pleasant contractions in the body happening right now, you first gain a bit of distance from it.Distance in a good way, not trying to dissociate.There are some sensations in my body right now. I have a mental image of what that happens. And I would ask, okay, you notice that in this moment you're thinking of that story and imagine that reality should be a certain way for you right now.Almost like trying to, um, rewrite the past, which is in a way, making a sentence or what we describe. It's like, oh, I didn't have a father that was,[00:56:00] let's say, uh, warm and I'm just making it up right now. Right? It's like when you tone that, is that the thing that you actually wanted back then?It's like, yeah, I wanted to, it's like. what you have right now, even though you didn't have then, it's just a bunch of sensation. And I ask them, okay, if you feel those sensations, but like, don't go into thoughts that are just chatter now. At this moment. You have those crappy sensations, but are they that bad?That's why I make the framing around like compared to an actual pain, how bad they are, and I ask them to stay with it. And if they get lasting thoughts, I bring them back. It's like, no, no, no, no. You're in this room right now. Your father, whoever it is, it's not here. You're safe. You're with me. Like, or even if they're in their, in their own room, they're safe.What do you have right now? It's a bunch of sensations. Like, do you need to do something about those sensations? Can you just relax a bit into them? Can you give them 1% at a time to just be there and let them dissolve?[00:57:00] And over time that decreases, they're not here, not an experience. Would be the point of imagining, oh, it's this, this created this problem. This problem is this problem. if you wanna untangle, but at the level of suffering, most often. I've seen, uh, I, I'm not gonna give a percentage. Most people end up not having the benefits that I want because they're going like, oh, he was like this and he used to do this.And you, it's like if they, if they lock into the past, they're already not in the room with you. They're basically like lost in thoughts that they're already passed the gap in a space of just fabrication and this, just seeing the difference between what's here right now and what's fabrication or constructionDaniel Kazandjian: You know, the concept of memory reconsolidation and like, uh, therapy literature.Michael Stroe: Yeah.Daniel Kazandjian: Do you wanna do a quick summary of that?Michael Stroe: Uh, yes. I'm not super technical and I can, I best tell you myDaniel Kazandjian: Well, let, let me actually just say how I mean it. ‘cause like, we don't need to get academic about it. It, but it's this idea that like, uh,[00:58:00] There's all these different therapeutic healing modalities, inner work modalities, and to the extent that any of them are effective, they seem to share one thing in common at, at least this is the thesis, which is they allow you to reconsolidate refactor negative memory memories into positive ones by presenting. or neutral ones by presenting disconfirming evidence. So you're having, we're having a conversation in a safe environment about something that happened when it felt unsafe. Maybe we spend time with the sensations instead of the story,And then the system changes. It's a prediction because you're predicting something bad's gonna happen,but it doesn't. And then if you just see that very clearly, then your system updates and then you no longer have activation around that.Michael Stroe: Oh, uh, yeah, definitely. I feel like in a therapeutic sense, they kind of try to change the story as well, if I'm not mistaken.Daniel Kazandjian: Yeah.Michael Stroe: like in our approach, it would be mostly just.[00:59:00] Sitting with the sensation and they become neutral and then the story, it's like, okay, he did that. It is probably process wise, we would stay a step, uh, closer to experience. We wouldn't necessarily try to change the story.Daniel Kazandjian: Yeah.Michael Stroe: What it's worth, I want everyone to know that I actually don't think that enlightenment, Buddhism, or fairs have the answer to all the problems. And I think some, uh, therapeutic modalities should be used, especially after stream entry, but stream entry is super fast.But I think if you want to change your patterns, you would first do the feeling and then okay, what would ideally do here? Right. Funnily enough, funnily enough, there is a degree to which feeling your sensation about an issue changes behavior immediately. Even though we are not necessarily doing, uh, a change in the story, uh, this oftentimes actually happens with issues around procrastination.That's the one I actually have seen the most when you no longer have this, oh, this is gonna suck if I'm gonna have to do this. immediately like, oh, I, I feel okay, I'm just gonna do it.[01:00:00] Uh, and we, we in this case with, let's say, let's be less than pleasant with, uh, a parent that happens, but less to a degree. Whereas I would say that, oh, the people that I've worked with necessarily all of a sudden go and all of them repair their relationship. They feel they are if they choose later to work on this and process this and change the relationship. That's almost, um, a side process that it canBut I wouldn't say that this one actually solves it like that.Daniel Kazandjian: Um, I think it'd be nice if we did like a very concise, uh, procrastination protocol, so. Let's say someone listening to this is like, fuck, there's that thing I gotta do, and I keep putting it off step by step. How might they deconstruct it using your method?Michael Stroe: Yeah. So it'll be like this. Oh, I have this thing. Let's say I have, I have this project and there is a deadline on Friday, right? Let's say today is Wednesday. Sorry.The reality is like all those grand stories, like, oh, if this is, if I'm not gonna do this, my boss, my this might be like, okay, okay.[01:01:00] Okay. Right now what you have with this situation, you have some sensation, you have some thoughts, and you're also like some resistance to how the sensations feel. But let's take a step back and all of the, the stories we can sum it up as, I don't know if I finished the project by Friday, that's the, the thing, it can be either, uh, uh, a, a, an uncertainty problem, right?That I usually frame, I usually frame it on two things. Procrastination, especially either something that you feel like it's missing or something that you don't know.It's the first one where you feel like something is uncertain, like I don't know if I have the time to be or if I know if I'll finish the project by Friday.Okay. How does that feel in the body? Oh, it's a sensation in my gut. It's a four out of 10. It's like, whoa, we have a big one. Right. And that's when I asked them, it's like, okay, but compared to breaking, like how bad is that sensation? It's like one. Oh, okay. Yeah. So it's like, oh, it's a one out of 10 for the fact that I don't know if I'm gonna finish the project by Friday, or I don't know if this task will get done.Okay. Or I, or, or the other framing is I haven't done X project.[01:02:00] Maybe the deadline is not there. Especially for personal projects, I work with a bunch of people that are self-employed. It's like, oh, I haven't done this project. And there's no one, there's no boss to tell them to do this. So in those cases, it would be like, oh, I haven't done X project.Okay. How does that feel in the body, that sensation? It's not that, that it doesn't even bother you that you have done or haven't done that situation. What bothers you is this sensation? So give it like 30 seconds. Okay. Oh, I haven't done this project. Does it feel that bad? Oh no. It's like, and it's like so fast, like two minutes.For most people, if it's not a big deal, it's like a two minute thing, like feeling your sensations. Like, okay, are you gonna do the thing? Yeah, I'm gonna do the thing, whatever. That's it.Daniel Kazandjian: Step one, you, you, you notice that you're procrastinating because I think sometimes you don't even realize that you're doing it. You're just like avoiding your life and then you're like, oh shit, I'm procrastinating. It's due tomorrow. Okay. You notice it.[01:03:00] You just sit and feel what's happening in your body, like what's the,Michael Stroe: I would actually, first, the next step would actually be putting things into perspective. It's you looking for some other reality than the one you have available. And it's very because sometimes like, oh, but what you're initially feeli

Sivupersoonat palaavat lomilta virkistyneinä uuteen tuotantokauteen ja syynäävät maailman menoa. Trumpin ja Putinin tapaaminen Alaskassa ei vielä nosta toiveita rauhasta Ukrainassa. Kotimaan politiikassa puhutaan jälleen budjettileikkauksista, joissa sisältö näyttää olevan säästöä tärkeämpää. Työmarkkinajärjestöt puolestaan kokoontuvat samaan pöytään katsomaan, löytävätkö he yhteistä näkemystä siitä, millä mekanismeilla verrokkimaissa on palkkoja nosteltu. Petteri Oksa on Insinööriliiton edunvalvontajohtaja. Filosofi, joka kuvaa itseään yhteiskunnallisen toiminnan moniottelijaksi.

Poumon économique de l'économie marocaine, le secteur du tourisme a réalisé des records en 2024, en générant plus de 10 milliards d'euros de revenus. Avec 17,4 millions de visiteurs, le Maroc devient le pays le plus visité du continent africain et ne compte pas s'arrêter en si bon chemin : 30 millions de visiteurs sont attendus en 2030. Les chiffres vont au-delà des objectifs de la feuille de route fixée par le gouvernement. Le Maroc bat son record absolu en terme de fréquentation avec une augmentation de 20% de visiteurs en 2024 par rapport à l'année précédente et tient la première place du podium sur le continent. Avec 12,7 milliards d'euros, l'industrie touristique égyptienne génère toujours davantage de revenus, mais en nombre de visiteurs, c'est bien le Maroc qui la surpasse.À lire aussiLe Maroc bat des records de fréquentation touristique en 2024Marrakech, la valeur sûreEn tête des destinations privilégiées : Marrakech, qui cumulait déjà plus de 10 millions de nuitées enregistrées à la fin du mois de novembre. Ce couple venu du département de la Manche en France visite Marrakech pour la première fois. Ils confient : « On est venu là pour découvrir premièrement. Et puis deuxièmement, on est venu rechercher le soleil, la chaleur. Chez nous, il fait 5-6°, ici, il y a quand même presque 20° de plus. C'était le but recherché ».Autre destination qui connaît une forte croissance : le tourisme balnéaire à Agadir et ses environs, prisés des amateurs de surf. Renée a voyagé avec ses trois adolescents depuis les Pays-Bas. Elle profite du soleil de décembre à Taghazout et se prépare à entrer dans l'eau en combinaison pour profiter des vagues : « En fait, c'est ma deuxième fois. J'étais là l'année dernière et j'ai beaucoup aimé, donc j'ai décidé de revenir. Pourquoi ? Parce que c'est super joli. Le temps est magnifique et c'est super pour apprendre à faire du surf. »À lire aussiLes vacances au Maroc, trop chères pour les MarocainsVols directs et surtourismeÀ ses côtés se tient Oussama, avec ses longs cheveux bouclés et dorés par le sel et soleil. Il est aujourd'hui professeur de surf à temps plein : « Il y a beaucoup de touristes, et d'année en année, ces plages deviennent de plus en plus connues. Il y a des gens qui viennent de partout dans le monde. »Même si les problèmes liés au surtourisme commencent déjà à faire surface au Maroc, le gouvernement préfère se féliciter pour ces bons chiffres, en très grande partie imputables aux contrats qui ont pu être signés avec les compagnies low cost. À titre d'exemple, pas moins de 34 lignes à petit budget relient la France au Maroc.« Cette croissance est due à une stratégie efficace, notamment l'amélioration de la connectivité aérienne avec des vols directs vers les principaux marchés émetteurs. Aussi, il y a eu des efforts de promotion et les performances de l'équipe de football nationale du Maroc au Mondial du Qatar qui ont renforcé le rayonnement international du Maroc », assure Zoubir Bouhoute, expert du secteur.Si à ce jour, 70% des touristes étrangers sont Européens, le Maroc entend attirer de plus en plus de touristes chinois, brésiliens ou canadiens en ciblant ces marchés et en menant des campagnes de promotion.À lire aussiMaroc: le tourisme retrouve des couleurs, un an après le séisme

En cette Journée internationale des migrants, direction le Pérou où un million de Vénézuéliens ont trouvé refuge. Malgré l'instabilité politique qui n'épargne pas ce pays d'accueil, ONG et organisations humanitaires tentent de « recréer du lien ». Au Venezuela, le bras de fer continue entre le président Nicolas Maduro, dont la victoire aux élections de juillet dernier n'est pas reconnue par de nombreux pays (dont les États-Unis) et l'opposition qui revendique la victoire. Pas de quoi envisager le retour pour les huit millions de Vénézuéliens qui ont quitté leur pays depuis plus d'une décennie. Au Pérou, où un million ont trouvé refuge, notre correspondant Martin Chabal est allé à la rencontre de certains d'entre eux. Protection devant la loi, défense des droits, notamment à la santé, l'ONG Veneactiva accompagne ces réfugiés, y compris dans leur intégration, aussi bien socio-économique, politique que culturelle. Pas une mince affaire, surtout depuis la pandémie de Covid-19 et le début de la crise politique. Le sentiment d'éloignement est plus cruel pour ses réfugiés quand viennent les fêtes de Noël. Aux sons d'un orchestre dans un théâtre de Lima, José Verdu, téléphone à la main, tente de rassurer sa tante restée au pays. Malgré les applaudissements et les sourires, la douleur est là. « Partager tout ça à distance, ça fait un vide, ce n'est pas pareil », souffle l'homme qui se souvient avec émotions des Noëls passés dans son pays d'origine.En Haïti, des institutions médicales « à genoux »À Port-au-Prince, comme une volonté de mettre les institutions médicales du pays à genoux, les gangs armés de la coalition « ViV Ansanm » ont incendié dans la nuit de lundi à mardi l'hôpital Bernard Mevs. Hôpital de référence, c'était un des rares centres médicaux encore en fonctionnement dans la région métropolitaine de Port-au-Prince. Indignée, l'Association médicale haïtienne (AMH) exige que l'État prenne ses responsabilités. « L'État doit prendre en charge les institutions qui sont encore fonctionnelles, qu'il s'agisse des institutions sanitaires ou administratives », estime son secrétaire général, Dr Ardouin Louis Charles au micro de notre correspondant Peterson Luxama.Pour notre confrère Frantz Duval du Nouvelliste, c'est là « un remake de ce qui s'est déjà produit contre une trentaine de centres de santé et éléments de la chaîne de soins de la région de Port-au-Prince ».Aux racines des tensions entre Haïti et la République dominicaineLa situation sécuritaire toujours plus critique en Haïti n'a cessé de tendre les relations entre les deux pays partageant l'île d'Hispaniola. Le président de la République dominicaine, Luis Abinader, a décidé l'an dernier de fermer la frontière avec son voisin. Depuis octobre, il est déterminé à expulser en masse les migrants haïtiens. 500 000 vivraient côté dominicain. Pour comprendre à la fois la méfiance qui perdure de chaque côté de la frontière et la migration haïtienne vers la République dominicaine, il faut faire un peu d'histoire. En cause, entre autres, le basculement historique récent qui veut qu'Haïti, l'ancienne force occupante de la République dominicaine, ait perdu sa mainmise économique, explique le journaliste Jean-Michel Caroit au micro de Christophe Paget. L'objectif du président dominicain d'expulser 10 000 Haïtiens par semaine vise ainsi à « satisfaire des groupes nationalistes xénophobes », selon Christian Girault, chercheur au CNRS. Une partie de la presse dominicaine favorise ce climat. Le Premier ministre haïtien Alix Didier Fils-Aimé a récemment demandé à son nouveau ministre des Affaires étrangères de renouer le dialogue avec la République dominicaine.

L'INR et l'Alliance Green IT lancent le baromètre green IT 2024 pour promouvoir un numérique responsable. Le secteur numérique, responsable de 4 % des émissions de gaz à effet de serre, pourrait atteindre 7 % en 2025. La production des terminaux représente 70 % de cet impact. La consommation de données, croissant de 40 % par an, pourrait dépasser 180 zettaoctets d'ici 2025.Les causes sont multiples : Internet des objets, réseaux sociaux, streaming vidéo, cloud computing... La connectivité verte est un levier clé pour réduire les émissions et la consommation énergétique. Green WiFi® soutient cette notion, en accord avec la loi REEN, qui vise à réduire de 15 % la consommation d'énergie des acteurs numériques et de 40 % l'impact environnemental des bâtiments d'ici 2030. « La connectivité verte, c'est se poser régulièrement les bonnes questions pour réduire sa consommation d'énergie globale », explique Antoine Huber, responsable marketing de Green WiFi®. L'Ademe promeut l'économie de la fonctionnalité, centrant la réflexion sur l'usage pour favoriser une consommation respectueuse de l'environnement tout en garantissant une connectivité performante.L'efficience énergétique est cruciale. Privilégier le WiFi plutôt que la 4G peut réduire la consommation d'énergie par 23, selon une étude de l'université de Columbia. Simplifier les architectures et utiliser des systèmes plus efficaces, comme la fibre optique, qui consomme quatre fois moins que le cuivre, est essentiel. La loi REEN encourage aussi l'écoconception et une meilleure gestion du cycle de vie du matériel numérique. Recyclage, réemploi et réparations spécifiques sont des solutions déjà disponibles. L'écoconception peut économiser jusqu'à 50 % de composants. « Le produit le plus écologique est celui qui n'a pas à être remplacé », souligne Antoine Huber. Maximiser l'utilisation des équipements et prolonger leur durée de vie réduit les déchets électroniques. Hébergé par Acast. Visitez acast.com/privacy pour plus d'informations.

Après quelques jours d'un répit très relatif, « les gangs repartent à l'offensive » titre le quotidien haïtien Le Nouvelliste. La pression est particulièrement forte sur les policiers. L'académie de police fait l'objet d'assauts réguliers et des groupes criminels ont même pillé et incendié le domicile du chef de la PNH hier (14 mars 2024). La multiplication des violences, ces dernières semaines, et plus généralement ces dernières années, poussent de plus en plus de policiers à déserter, comme l'écrit notre confrère Widlore Mérancourt du site Ayibopost. « Bien avant la crise actuelle, la police était une institution déjà fort éprouvée, rappelle le journaliste, indiquant qu'au moins 800 policiers l'ont quittée l'année dernière, des sources à la DCPJ me disent que certaines équipes fonctionnent de manière très difficiles à cause du départ massif de policiers. »De plus, ces forces de l'ordre ne se sentent pas soutenues par leur hiérarchie. « Le moral est à zéro et la situation est assez inquiétante, commente Widlore Mérancourt, parce que généralement ils se plaignent en privé de leur hiérarchie mais aujourd'hui ses complaintes éclatent au grand jour dans les groupes Whatsapp dédiés à la police, à la radio… ils parlent ouvertement d'une hiérarchie incompétente, qui n'arrive pas à trouver la bonne formule pour les soutenir en termes de matériel, de soutien moral et de stratégie globale pour mater les gangs. » Dans ces conditions, les policiers « prennent peur car ils savent que le leadership de l'institution est très faible, rapporte le journaliste, certains ne viennent pas travailler. La plupart des postes de police fixes ne sont pas pourvus en policiers et ils évitent souvent de circuler dans les rues en uniforme pour ne pas se faire cibles des bandits. »Le coordonnateur général du Syndicat national de la police haïtienne a confié à Ayibopost avoir pourtant alerté à de multiples reprises sur le manque de moyens de l'institution. « La police est à genoux, incapable d'assurer sa propre sécurité, regrette Lionel Lazarre auprès de nos confrères, il nous faut des hélicoptères, des chars d'assaut, des drones professionnels. » Le spectre de l'abstention plane au VenezuelaLe président Maduro doit annoncer aujourd'hui (15 mars 2024) sa candidature pour l'élection du 28 juillet. Il est très impopulaire, la candidate de l'opposition, elle, n'a pas le droit de se présenter et cela risque de favoriser l'abstention. Notre correspondante a rencontré de nombreux déçus de la politique, en particulier chez les plus jeunes qui n'ont plus confiance dans les autorités actuelles. « Les jeunes ont été extrêmement déçus des événements de 2014 et 2017, quand il y a eu ces grandes manifestations dans le pays, rappelle Benigno Alarcon, le directeur du Centre d'études politiques et de gouvernement, et ils reprochent aux adultes et au leadership politique de ne pas avoir continué cette lutte qu'ils ont démarrée. De l'avoir interrompue sans que leurs morts n'aient servi à rien. » Le journal de la 1èreEn visite en Martinique, le ministre de l'Intérieur ne repousse pas l'idée d'une « évolution institutionnelle » du département.

Un début chargé, aux États-Unis, pour les Républicains qui préparent leur primaire avec, dans deux semaines environ, le premier scrutin qui se déroulera dans l'Iowa. La droite conservatrice pousse son thème de campagne favori : l'immigration. Le chef de la Chambre des représentants, Mike Johnson, s'est rendu mercredi 3 janvier à la frontière mexicaine, avec d'autres élus du Congrès. Ils voulaient notamment poser devant une file de migrants attendant d'être pris en charge par la police des frontières. Mais sous le pont d'Eagle Pass, qui surplombe le Rio Grande, à la frontière, il n'y avait plus personne. Selon Mike Johnson, l'administration Biden est derrière cela et aurait déplacé des milliers de personnes pour ne pas qu'elles soient visibles. Il a tout de même pris la parole et dénoncé la politique du Démocrate : « Sept millions de personnes sont entrées dans le pays depuis que Joe Biden est dans le Bureau ovale et c'est une estimation basse. L'administration Biden n'a pas l'air de s'en soucier. »Le groupe républicain, qui n'a qu'une majorité de deux sièges à la Chambre des représentants, menace de couper les vivres des services publics si le gouvernement ne ferme pas la frontière. Un nouveau budget pérenne ou temporaire doit être voté d'ici deux semaines.Mexique : le mouvement zapatiste fête ses 40 ansAu Mexique, l'armée zapatiste a célébré ses 40 ans en ce début d'année, ainsi que les 30 ans de son soulèvement. Le 1er janvier 1994, les populations isolées du Chiapas se rebellaient contre, notamment, la politique libérale du pays, après l'entrée en vigueur de l'Alena, l'accord de libre-échange nord-américain. Tout au long de ces décennies, les Zapatistes ont incarné l'avant-garde de la pensée anticapitaliste.Notre correspondante Gwendolina Duval a assisté aux festivités au cœur du territoire zapatiste, dans les montagnes du Chiapas, où elle a rencontré des Mexicains toujours intéressés par ce mouvement, comme Silvia Reséndiz, activiste féministe. Elle est venue de l'autre bout du pays « pour apprendre d'eux. Pour pouvoir porter leur parole jusque dans la communauté d'où je viens. Il y a ici beaucoup de gens des peuples originels qui m'expliquent comment ils ont pu améliorer leurs conditions de vie dans leurs communautés ; tout ça, ce sont des exemples pour nous qui vivons dans la ville et qui ne sommes pas habitués à lutter ».Le journal de La 1èreEn plus de la maladie du « jaunissement mortel », les palmiers des Antilles sont désormais également menacés par un petit coléoptère particulièrement vorace…

Vin is in enemy territory as she makes her way to Kredik Shaw to confront the Lord Ruler.

Both Sazed and Elend come to her aid, but the final battle will be between Vin herself and the man who calls himself the Lord Ruler.

Vào giữa tháng 7 vừa qua, một phái đoàn Pháp, trong đó có bà Valérie Verdier, Chủ tịch kiêm Tổng Giám đốc Viện Nghiên cứu Phát triển, cùng với ông Bruno David, Chủ tịch bảo tàng Lịch sử Tự nhiên Quốc gia,  đã đến thăm Việt Nam. Đây là một trong những hoạt động mới nhất trong khuôn khổ hợp tác trong lĩnh vực môi trường giữa hai nước Pháp và Việt Nam.   Theo báo chí trong nước, trong cuộc gặp giữa phái đoàn Pháp với thứ trưởng bộ Tài Nguyên và Môi trường Việt Nam Lê Công Thành, bà Valérie Verdier cho biết, thời gian qua, nhiều chuyên gia của Viện nghiên cứu phát triển đã đến Việt Nam nghiên cứu lĩnh vực môi trường. Cũng trong buổi làm việc, các nhà nghiên cứu khoa học của phái đoàn Pháp bày tỏ mong muốn được tham gia hợp tác lâu dài với bộ Tài Nguyên và Môi trường, nhất là trong việc triển khai quan hệ Đối tác chuyển dịch năng lượng công bằng (JETP) và các cam kết toàn cầu về ứng phó biến đổi khí hậu mà Việt Nam đã tham gia. Chính phủ Pháp đã cam kết sẽ hỗ trợ 50 triệu đô la Mỹ cho các nước đang phát triển tham gia JETP, hướng tới các giải pháp năng lượng tái tạo và giảm phát thải khí nhà kính.Trong công cuộc hợp tác Pháp-Việt về bảo vệ môi trường, nay cũng có sự tham gia của giới luật sư hai nước. Trong hai ngày 7 và 8/07/2023, tại khu Trung tâm Quốc tế Khoa học và Giáo dục Liên ngành, thành phố Quy Nhơn, tỉnh Bình Định, đã diễn ra một cuộc hội thảo về môi trường quy tụ các luật sư và chuyên gia hai nước Việt Nam và Pháp. Trong số các luật sư Việt Nam dự hội thảo, có luật sư Hoàng Cao Sang, Văn phòng luật sư Hoàng Việt Luật, Sài Gòn. Trả lời RFI Việt ngữ, luật sư Hoàng Cao Sang cho biết về nội dung hội thảo: “Đó là những vấn đề liên quan đến môi trường, mà ở đây các chuyên gia nói nhiều về rác thải công nghệ như thiết bị máy tính, điện thoại, khí CO2 và cả đường truyền internet, cũng như việc tải các dữ liệu thông qua đường truyền này làm nhiệt độ tăng, dẫn đến biến đổi khí hậu, ảnh hưởng đến môi trường.Đây là những rác thải của công nghệ cao do các nước phát triển họ tìm hiểu, rồi tìm cách hạn chế các loại ô nhiễm này. Ở Việt Nam thì chưa nghĩ đến những loại rác thải công nghệ mới này. Thường thì môi trường liên quan đến điều kiện cuộc sống và ý thức con mỗi con người, ở Việt Nam thì còn khó khăn, chưa phát triển và đặc biệt là người dân chưa được giáo dục nhiều ý thức về môi trường. Tôi nhận thấy hiện tại ở Việt Nam, người gây ra ô nhiễm môi trường cũng chưa biết mình vi phạm luật môi trường, và người bị xâm hại cũng chẳng biết mình bị xâm hại, dù điều này pháp luật đã quy định.Vì vậy, buổi hội thảo này sẽ đóng góp vào ý thức về bảo vệ môi trường, đặc biệt là ô nhiễm của rác thải công nghệ mới.” Cũng theo luật sư Hoàng Cao Sang, trong hội thảo tại Quy Nhơn, phía luật sư Pháp đã trao đổi những kinh nghiệm về thi hành luật pháp trong vấn đề bảo vệ môi trường:  “Các luật sư Pháp đưa ra các chính sách, các quy định của pháp luật của Pháp về môi trường như Luật REEN ngày 15/11/2021 nhằm giảm tác động đến môi trường của công nghệ kỹ thuật số ở Pháp; Chính sách khí hậu của Âu Châu; Nghĩa vụ đối với môi trường của các quốc gia; Sự tỉnh táo trong thời đại kỹ thuật số; Đòn bẩy cho các hành động pháp lý; Từ nhận thức đến hành động và đặc biệt là cải thiện điều kiện sống để người dân ý thức hơn về môi trường.Đây là những bước sơ khởi ban đầu của các luật sư Pháp trao đổi về môi trường tại đây, nên họ chưa có những hỗ trợ cụ thể. Nhưng tôi tin rằng qua lần hội thảo này, họ sẽ có những bước tiếp theo để những vấn đề mà họ đưa ra trong buổi hội thảo này được đi vào thực tế. Sau buổi hội thảo, chúng tôi cũng đã đề nghị các luật sư Pháp hỗ trợ và hết hợp cho nhiều chương trình khác nhau sau này, và họ rất vui vẻ nhận lời. Đặc biệt, trong chương trình này có luật sư Ngô Thị Mỹ Hạnh và Giáo sư Trần Thành Vân là những người Pháp gốc Việt, những người trí thức thành công tại Pháp và họ luôn có tâm niệm đóng góp cho quê hương Việt Nam. Tôi tin rằng họ sẽ có nhiều hỗ trợ cho Việt Nam trong nhiều vấn đề.”Trả lời RFI Việt ngữ, luật sư Ngô Thị Mỹ Hạnh, chủ tịch Hội Hợp tác Pháp lý Châu Âu Việt Nam, cho biết:" Lần này là lần thứ ba chúng tôi đến thành phố Quy Nhơn vì hai nhà khoa học Trần Thanh Vân và Lê Kim Ngọc, sáng lập viên hội "Gặp gỡ Việt Nam" năm 1993 và Trung tâm Quốc tế Khoa học và Giáo dục Liên ngành, mời chúng tôi đến. Lần trước, khi đến Trung tâm tôi có gặp thứ trưởng bộ Tài nguyên và Môi trường Việt Nam. Họ có mời tôi đến nói về chính sách chống ô nhiễm từ các túi nhựa dùng một lần. Họ thấy các luật sư Pháp quan tâm đến vấn đề môi trường ở Việt Nam.Lần này được hai nhà khoa học mời đến là cơ hội để các nhà khoa học và các luật gia gặp nhau. Chúng  tôi tổ chức hội thảo để đề cập đến thách thức môi trường và cải cách pháp lý. Nhà khoa học là Hà Dương Minh, cũng là gốc Việt, nói về chuyển đổi năng lượng. Các luật sư thì nói về chính sách về nước của châu Âu, về ô nhiễm tiếng ồn. Luật sư Đặng Thị Ngọc Hạnh, chủ nhiệm đoàn luật sư Huế, cũng có phát biểu. Hai ngày hội thảo đó rất phong phú và mọi người đến đông đủ để chia sẽ và trao đổi với nhau về kinh nghiệm, ý kiến, thông tin. Tôi sẽ đăng những bài phát biểu của tất cả các chuyên gia trên trang mạng của Trung tâm Quốc tế Khoa học và Giáo dục Liên ngành, vì đấy là nơi mà họ tập trung mỗi năm."Cũng theo lời luật sư Ngô Thị Mỹ Hạnh, Quy Nhơn, với Trung tâm Quốc tế Khoa học và Giáo dục Liên ngành, sẽ nơi lý tưởng để phát triển các giải pháp cho môi trường:" Chúng tôi dự trù sẽ tiếp tục các chương trình thông tin sao cho người dân Việt Nam và các công ty đều có ý thức để tránh và giảm bớt ô nhiễm ở Việt Nam, tiến đến một môi trường xanh và tránh những thảm nạn như lũ lụt, nước dâng cao ở vùng sông Cửu Long.Chúng tôi nghĩ là ở Quy Nhơn có nhiều cơ hội những giải pháp cho môi trường, vì ở đấy, hai nhà khoa học Trần Thanh Vân và Lê Kim Ngọc đã thành lập ra một trung tâm khám phá khoa học độc nhất ở Việt Nam. Nên khai thác trung tâm khoa học đó và mỗi khi có thể được thì cho học sinh, sinh viên, người dân đến Quy Nhơn, cũng như các đoàn trao đổi quốc tế đến để giúp ý kiến, kinh nghiệm cho Việt Nam".Kinh nghiệm của các luật sư Pháp càng cần thiết trong bối cảnh Việt Nam còn gặp nhiều vấn đề trong việc thực hiện Luật Bảo vệ môi trường năm 2020, có hiệu lực từ ngày 01/01/2022, theo luật sư Hoàng Cao Sang: “Về cơ bản, Luật Bảo vệ môi trường của Việt Nam cũng đã có những quy định để bảo vệ môi trường, nhưng vẫn chưa chi tiết hóa các trường hợp cụ thể, hoặc có quy định nhưng không áp dụng được bởi những vướng mắc của luật khác. Chính vì các vướng mắc đó nên pháp luật không đi vào cuộc sống được. Đơn giản như tiếng ồn. Ở Việt Nam đi đâu cũng thấy tiếng ồn. Tiếng ồn từ các công trình của các doanh nghiệp, và tiếng ồn của cả các cá nhân gây ra trong cuộc sống hàng ngày.Có một số trường hợp không chịu được tiếng ổn mà người ta phải vác súng, vác dao bắn/đâm chết người gây ra tiếng ồn, nhưng có mấy ai bị xử phạt vì gây ra tiếng ồn đâu. Hoặc xả khí/rác thải khắp nơi nhưng có mấy doanh nghiệp bị xử phạt đâu?Bên cạnh những doanh nghiệp Việt Nam, còn có những tập đoàn lớn của nước ngoài vào đầu tư cũng xả thải ra môi trường, nhưng rất ít khi bị phát hiện và rất ít khi bị xử phạt.Thứ nữa là mức phạt chưa nghiêm, nên việc xả thải của các doanh nghiệp/người dân vẫn tiếp diễn, bất chấp các quy định của pháp luật.Ngoài vấn đề luật pháp, tôi còn cho rằng phải cải thiện và nâng cấp điều kiện sống, phải phát triển lên thì mới hạn chế được việc gây ảnh hưởng đến môi trường."

Qui n'a jamais ressenti cette sensation de souffle coupé lors d'une immersion soudaine en eau glacée ? Souvent de courte durée et sans conséquence, ce réflexe se produit des suites de mécanismes physiologiques qui permettent à notre corps de supporter des changements brusques de température.Le réflexe archaïque de plongée mammifèreEn cas de variations subites dans notre environnement, notre organisme met en place des mécanismes hérités de nos ancêtres et maintenus à travers les différentes évolutions subies par l'humain. Ce que l'on nomme le réflexe de plongée mammifère s'observe chez d'autres animaux tels que les dauphins et les phoques. Il s'agit d'une réponse physiologique aux conditions de plongée dans une eau froide, qui aide l'organisme à supporter les variations thermiques sans risque immédiat.Les trois composantes du réflexe de plongée mammifère sont les suivantes.La bradycardie, c'est-à-dire le ralentissement du rythme cardiaque après quelques secondes d'immersion du visage dans l'eau froide, est susceptible d'abaisser la fréquence cardiaque d'un quart environ de sa fréquence habituelle.La vasoconstriction périphérique réduit le flux sanguin dans les extrémités en réduisant le diamètre des vaisseaux périphériques, ce qui permet de rediriger tout l'oxygène vers les organes vitaux que sont le cerveau et le cœur.L'apnée consiste en une suspension involontaire de la respiration, celle-là même qui traduit le sentiment de respiration coupée.Pourquoi la respiration se coupe-t-elle lors d'une douche froide ?L'apnée est déclenchée par les récepteurs de froid, qui se situent sur le visage et dans les orifices nasaux. Lorsqu'ils sont stimulés par un choc thermique, ces récepteurs envoient un signal d'alerte au cerveau afin de déclencher l'apnée. Cette réaction de défense vise à prévenir une éventuelle noyade. En retenant notre respiration, nous évitons que l'eau pénètre dans nos poumons. Le réflexe perdure même si le danger n'est pas réel, par exemple lorsque nous entrons dans une pièce très froide.Il n'y a habituellement pas de risque à avoir la respiration coupée ponctuellement, sauf en cas de maladie cardiaque chronique ou de faiblesse du cœur. Dans ce cas, la personne concernée risque l'arrêt cardiaque à cause du stress généré pour le cœur.Et dans les montagnes russes ?La sensation de souffle coupé ressentie dans les manèges à sensation est liée à un autre mécanisme. Lors d'une accélération rapide et soudaine, le corps ressent une force G accrue. Cette force qui explicite le poids exercé par l'accélération pèse sur la cage thoracique, occasionnant des difficultés à reprendre son souffle. Là encore, il s'agit d'un phénomène transitoire et sans risque pour un adulte en bonne santé, qui s'estompe dès la fin de l'attraction. Hébergé par Acast.

Darlings—the new Netflix film starring Alia Bhatt—is yet another Hindi-language comedy that doesn't know how to navigate serious themes. We talk about the film's tonal imbalance, the disrespect with which it treats its protagonist, and director Jasmeet K. Reen's under-confident handling of some very intense ideas. We also discuss why rape-revenge films are morally thorny, and how Vijay Varma is able to elevate his underwritten character through performance alone. — Hosted by Akhil Arora and Rohan Naahar, The Long Take is fully bootstrapped.

She gives these out to the people around them on the plane to make them aware and hopefully more understanding instead of possibly annoyed at any disruptions. An example of which will be available at the bottom of these show notes for you to print out. 10:00 – What about the other end of the journey when you arrive at your destination? 11:00 – Reen recounts a stressful story of traveling alone with two toddlers? 14:30 – What were the must-do preparations for the holiday? 16:50 – Kids clubs are not for everyone! 20:00 – Covid and the lack of travel for 2 years brought about some anxiety on the first trip. 21:00 – Top Tips for travel: Build a social story book for your child to prepare them for an upcoming trip showing them pictures of destinations and things they can do when they are there. A step up from the social story as your children get older is to involve them in planning the trip and have them research the location and things they can do. Make sure you have the snack they like to each packed and airplane food doesn't cater to the average child. Prepare an information card about your child to hand out to people sitting around you as you feel appropriate.  --- To learn more about traveling with kids on the spectrum, watch Learn Autism's video: Managing Transitions.

In episode 81 of The Great Women Artists Podcast, Katy Hessel interviews Jeffreen M. Hayes on the Harlem Renaissance pioneer, Augusta Savage!! *BOOK NEWS!* I have written a book! Order The Story of Art without Men here: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Story-Art-without-Men/dp/1529151147/ref=tmm_hrd_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=1647348710&sr=8-1 [This episode is brought to you by Alighieri jewellery: www.alighieri.co.uk | use the code TGWA at checkout for 10% off!] Overcoming poverty, racism, and sexual discrimination, Savage is one of the greatest American artists of the 20th century and is famed for her emotionally tender and stoic life-size figures and plaster portrait busts. Raised in a strict family in Florida with a father who opposed her artistic pursuits, she arrived in New York with just $4.60, and in 1922 enrolled at The Cooper Union School of Art. Coming to the fore in the 1920s, Savage mastered emotionally tender and stoic life-size figures and plaster portrait busts (painted with shoe polish for a bronzed effect), and her subjects ranged from dignified everyday Black figures to influential Harlemites, including W. E. B. Du Bois. Working with images to elevate Black culture into mainstream America, Savage was also a key community organiser, exhibitor and teacher to so many. Not only did she become the first African American woman in the US to open her own private art gallery, she was also appointed the first director of the Harlem Community Art Center. As confirmed by Jeffreen, who has previously said: “I don't think about Augusta Savage as someone who only made objects … [but rather as someone who] has really left behind a blueprint of what it means to be an artist that centres humanity.” ENJOY!

Author of The Watch series, Kay DiBianca's latest cozy mystery, Time after Tyme, introduces two new young characters that are absolute delights to read!  Join Kay as she introduces us to a small town university, a minister, a rabbi, and a bunch of clues. We chat about mystery writing and books we love to read as well. Note: links may be affiliate links that provide me with a small commission at no extra expense to you. Who Is Ready for a New and Delightful Cozy Mystery? This week we're BACK with cozy mystery author, Kay DiBianca. If you missed her first interview, check that out HERE. I expected to enjoy Time after Tyme, yes.  After all, I'd enjoyed the other two books in The Watch series. What I didn't expect was to discover what is probably my new favorite scene of all time.  There's something crazy delightful in the opening scene of Time after Tyme.  The young girls, Ree and Joanie are just the sort of fun, quirky girls--very alike and completely opposite at the same time--that give books life. Never fear. Kay DiBianca did them justice, and now I might have conned... that is, I mean talked her into a middle-grade series with them.  It would be like Nancy Drew meets Francie Nolan in contemporary times or something.  EEEP! In addition to talking about the series and just how many books it needs (Kay mentioned SCOTLAND!), we talked about her other project ideas and her blogging over on the Kill Zone Blog. I even told her about my Book Club Capers interactive short story (and this week is a new installment.  Will they guess the right book, or is Corey a gonner?  Find out on Thursday! Hey, maybe we can talk Kay into playing around with Reen and Joanie with their own installments on HER blog... at least for now.  #TeamReen.  #AllTheReenNess! Time after Tyme by Kay DiBianca Nancy Drew meets Tom Sawyer in this delightful and thought-provoking romp through the third book in The Watch Series of clean mysteries. Secret codes and university intrigue combine to give Kathryn Frasier and Cece Goldman a new and puzzling mystery to solve. But things get dicey when two misguided young girls wander into the middle of the investigation and decide to solve it themselves. Can Kathryn and Cece decipher the codes and protect the youngsters before the killer strikes again? "Delightfully clever!" -- Jodie Renner, author of the award-winning writing guide Fire Up Your Fiction. You can learn more about Kay DiBianca and Time after Tyme on her WEBSITE.
