We are a society that praises being busy, the more that one can cram into a day and the fewer hours you need to sleep the more productive and successful you seem, but are you and at what cost? According to the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute, NIH (June 7, 2017) "Sleep plays an important role in your physical health. For example, sleep is involved in healing and repair of your heart and blood vessels. Ongoing sleep deficiency is linked to an increased risk of heart disease, kidney disease, high blood pressure, diabetes, and stroke."

Hello Cabbages! This week on the show we're taking our first full-length look at Chad & Jeremy, addressed here by their full names, and their 1967 statement piece Of Cabbages and Kings. A tale of two sides, this takes an already very progressive baroque-folk set of songs on Side 1 and pairs it with The Progress Suite on Side 2 - a 5 part, most instrumental look at the rise and fall of society and the politics surrounding it. It's a grand, Gary Usher produced statement of an album that lands for the most part, but how do it's two mixes stand up? Well, for the most part the mono and the stereo are equally strong, especially over speakers, and I never truly feel left wanting from the mixes, but there's plenty of little details that make each unique. So with these two LPs in hand, and a 45 edit/mix of opening cut 'Rest in Piece' trailing behind, let's dig into this album to deep which is the Cabbage, and which is the King. I've also got to once again give a huge thanks to Ethan Alexanian from the Fans on the Run podcast for his work on the flatlay artwork for today's episode. Oh, and I want a word with whoever decided to put my name on a gravestone at the start of the album. I'm a little suss now... Happy Listening, Frederick P.S. If you want more Chad & Jeremy, we looked at 'Paxton Quigley...' b/w/ 'You Need Feet: last month over at the Patreon on Mixology on 45.  Email Instagram - @hypnoticfred

In a recent public address, Florida's Governor, Ron DeSantis, emphatically made it clear the kind of disruptive and harmful actions that have been making headlines recently won't find a home in his state. 'Think of the recent occurrences, where so-called 'supporters' of Hamas have been blocking traffic and commandeering bridges,' DeSantis stated. 'Let's set the record straight: no one has the right to do that. Be it medical emergencies or parental duties, people's lives can't be put on hold because someone else decides their ideological inclinations supersede public order.' DeSantis detailed an incident where similar efforts to disrupt public order occurred in Miami. 'They attempted to enforce their own rules in Miami, and the result? Within 10 minutes, these agitators were removed from the road where they rightfully belong. We will not stand by and let such actions disrupt the peace and order of our state,' DeSantis asserted. Moving beyond the disruptions caused on the public highways, DeSantis turned his attention to the higher education institutions. The Florida Governor expressed deep concern about reported instances of Jewish students and faculty being targeted on campuses across America. 'To see Hamas being supported on campuses is hard to fathom. But the issue escalates when Jewish students are pursued, when a Jewish faculty member is barred from entering a building, or when individuals are singled out because of their faith.' Governor DeSantis emphasized that such actions cross the line into harassment and violate acceptable behavior standards. 'This is not a matter of free speech anymore. Straightforwardly, this is harassment, and it's a breach of decorum and civility.' DeSantis didn't shy away from critiquing specific campuses that have featured in recent reports. He said, 'At esteemed places of learning, like Columbia and Yale, these individuals seem to have the upper hand. They conduct themselves with a disturbing level of impunity, which is only possible because certain administrators and university presidents lack the fortitude to take a stand.' The Governor resolutely denounced the passivity of such administrative bodies. 'These leaders appear weak and intimidated, seemingly paralyzed in the face of these tribulations, which is inexcusable. They need to step up, take responsibility, and restore order and peace back on their campuses.' In a sharp counterpoint to what he sees as the failures of some universities' administrations, DeSantis contrasted their lack of action with the strong stance Florida's educational institutions are prepared to take. 'Let me assure you, in Florida's universities, we have a completely different approach. Such behavior will be met with immediate repercussions.' Painting a picture of swift and decisive justice, DeSantis continued, 'We will be issuing an uncompromising directive - you misbehave in this manner, we show you the exit. Commit such acts, and you're out, as simple as that. It's time we uphold the dignity of our educational institutions.' The Florida Governor firmly believes in the power of consequences to act as a effective deterrent. 'The problem today is the lack of consequences which only emboldens more such anti-social behavior. But set an example and others will think twice before indulging in such actions.' In DeSantis's Florida, the time for consequences, it seems, is now. 'We're ready to play hardball. The time for tacit acceptance is over. We're bringing the hammer down. It's time to restore order in our state, in our schools, and in the lives of our citizens.' Governor DeSantis ended his fervent address with a powerful message. 'Rest assured, the moment people start feeling the heat of repercussions, we won't be having these chaotic scenes anymore.' Through his commanding address, Governor DeSantis once again affirmed his unyielding commitment to maintaining peace, order, and the rule of law within the state of Florida. DeSantis's bold stance only further cements his continued dedication to upholding the basic rights and freedoms of his citizens, ensuring they can carry out their daily lives without disruption, while providing a safe, respectful environment at educational institutions. Indeed, in a nation increasingly grappling with disruptive and potentially dangerous protests, Florida's leadership provides a beacon of hope that order, decency, and respect for one's fellow citizens can indeed be maintained in the midst of such chaos.

November 5, 2023 Morning Service. An obedient life of a Christian is spent in service to the Lord. But the Bible speaks several times about the %u2018rest%u2019 that comes from being yoked or connected with Jesus Christ. So how then do you reconcile the two? In this week's sermon, Pastor John Friederich helps us understand what the meaning behind this terminology is and how it applies to our daily lives. (Hebrews 4:1-5)

Top 5 Most Read RNS's on Vox Markets for Tuesday 18th April 2023 5. Cineworld Group #CINE - Chapter 11 Update Cineworld announces that, in agreement with its key stakeholders, the Group has decided to terminate the marketing process for its 'Rest of World' business. The Group received proposals for the RoW Business from a number of prospective counterparties, however the proposals did not meet the value level required by the Group's lenders. 4. N4 Pharma #NP4 - siRNA update The Company has completed the single loading of both the EGFR and BCL-2 siRNA nucleotides onto Nuvec and has produced good monodisperse formulations at all doses to be investigated. The single loaded EGFR siRNA has shown strong silencing of the EGFR gene with a good dose response curve established which has allowed the Company to identify the dose it can take into the single loaded EGFR in vivo study. The next step for EGFR is to measure cell apoptosis to show a relevant in vitro clinical effect. 3. IOG PLC #IOG - Drilling Update The H2 well was successfully drilled to the Basal Zechstein sequence. However, while drilling through the Hauptdolomit formation within the Zechstein, an abnormally pressured gas and oil influx was encountered, with associated drilling fluid losses. The risk of such a well control challenge was identified during planning and is being safely managed by Petrofac and Shelf, in collaboration with the IOG team. However, this now looks likely to impact the expected well duration, potentially by up to four weeks, while the associated cost impact will depend largely on the speed of resolution. 2. THG PLC #THG - FY2022 preliminary results & Q12023 trading update Group revenues increased 2.7% to £2,239.2m (FY 2021: £2,179.9m), culminating in 2-year total sales growth of 38.8%. Operating loss of £495.6m, impacted by the non-cash impairment of £275.4m, in addition to certain non-recurring costs which continue to reduce. FY 2023 revenue and adjusted EBITDA expected to be in line with Company consensus. Reiterate Group's expectation of being free cash flow neutral in FY 2023 1. Angus Energy #ANGS - Saltfleetby Sidetrack Well Test Results Based on the results we have concluded that at present, the well is capable of 4-5 mmscfd (Million standard cubic feet per day) at a FWHP of 30 barg flowing into the system with the two other wells. We are expecting the well to clean up further which is likely to raise that flow rate in the future. Whilst producing through a temporary connection, the new well flowline will be constructed to enable full plateau production this summer.

How will it sound if the seed claims, "I am a tree!" The seed has to go under the soil, sprout and the seedling has to grow up. This is why spiritual practices are performed. When the seed becomes a tree we can chain an elephant to it; but if we don't protect it in the early stages, birds will peck it."-Amma"Think Of God As Your Environment.Be One with God and nothing can harm you."-Yogananda"Jesus does not call us to do what  He did, but to be as He was: permeated with love. Then, the doing of what He did and said becomes the natural expression of who we are in God."-Dallas Willard"When the world pushes you to your knees, you're in the perfect position to pray."-Rumi"The Beloved: My son, I am the Lord; no strength like His in the hour of distress.? When things are not going well with you, come to Me. The chief hindrance to your receiving heavenly comfort is your slowness in turning to prayer; you do not come to me straightway and pray to me earnestly, but first you go seeking other things to comfort you, trying to find diversion in created things. All these things, as it happens, do little to help you; it is then that you remember that I am the deliverer of all who put their hope in me; that apart from me there is no help that can do much, no counsel that can be taken with profit, no remedy whose effects can last. But now, when the storm is over and you can breathe freely again, recruit your strength in the light of My Mercies; for I am near, I the Lord, to restore all things not only to their former perfection but to pile them high and make them overflow with added graces."-Thomas Kepis, The Imitation of Christ "Lord, whatever it is I desire, may I desire you more. whatever it is I seek, may I seek you more. whatever it is I love, may I love you more. be more to me than anything else in this world."-@Proverbs31_ministries"Divine Mother, help me to consciously receive the omnipresence Light constantly passing through me."-Yogananda "You don't need whatever you are chasing in this world. You only need Jesus."- @LivingChristian"Abiding in The Word means dwelling constantly in the realization of your oneness with God-conscious-ness. This means that you not only stop taking thought for your life, but you also stop reacting to outer conditions. If you abide continually in the realization of oneness, then outer conditions will reflect that oneness.  To help you stay alert, constantly remind yourself, "Right now as I appear to be doing such and such, I am really divine Consciousness individualized, and right now I am knowing that I am divine Consciousness individualized."-Joel GoldsmithSupport the show

Uber Testing “Journey Ads” - Marketers Can Target Riders By Destination - Uber, the ride-hailing company is expanding its advertising business and is testing out ‘Journey Ads'  to its riders based on their travel history and their geographic locations. The  journey ads will be shown in the Uber app at least three times during the riders' journey. Uber will allow brands to place ads using data drawn from riders' travel history and their precise geographic destinations.  For example, if a user books an Uber to a specific retailer, cinema or airport, an advertiser could buy ads centered on that location. An Uber spokeswoman said, "Uber does not share user data with advertisers. The information that Uber shares is limited to aggregated information or other non-personal data, such as the percentage of users who clicked on an ad, or the number of users who visit the retail locations of advertisers using our platform. Users can opt-out of targeted ads on the Uber app at any time"3. New Features for Facebook Groups Announced In Communities Summit 2022 - Facebook has announced a range of new groups features during the Communities Summit 2022, including new Stories sharing tools, view-only chats, custom member profile displays, and more. Reels in Groups- With Reels now in Groups, community members can share information, tell stories and connect on a deeper level. Group admins and members can also add creative elements such as audio, text overlay and filters on top of their videos before sharing to bring their stories to life. The ability to share a public Facebook event for your community to your Instagram story. Whether you're a group admin hosting a meet-up to celebrate a community milestone, or a group member sharing your passion with friends, this feature can help you showcase your community more broadly. Facebook's also testing new customization options for people's 'About Me' section specific to each community, in order to better highlight relevant information for that audience, along with a new indicator that highlights whether you're open to private messaging. Facebook's also testing the ability for group admins and moderators to create view-only chats to send one-way communications to all of their members (without having to maintain or respond to messages in the chat), and a new process to highlight top contributing members, who'll be able to earn points by taking on group engagement responsibilities. Facebook's also trying out a new element within Admin Assist that'll enable group admins to implement automatic removal of posts containing information, as determined by Meta's third-party fact-checkers. 4. Instagram Announces ‘Creator Portfolio' Option - Instagram has officially announced its ‘Creator Portfolio' option, which will enable creators to build what's essentially a media kit type package, in order to showcase their audience reach, as well as previous brand work. It's similar to Instagram's Creator Marketplace listings where influencers are presented in a collective showcase – though a Creator Portfolio enables individual users to share their profile direct with potential partners in the app. 5. Google: The Importance Of Image Filenames And One Big Mistake To Avoid - Google's documentation doesn't say if image filenames are ranking factors. But they do say that Google takes note of them in order to help figure out what the image is about. For that reason it's recommended by Google that images be given meaningful filenames. It's also a good practice to give meaningful filenames to images because it makes it easier for organization purposes to be able to see the image filename and know what it's about. In Episode 48 of Search Off the Record podcast, Google's Lizzi Sassman and John Mueller discussed the importance of image filenames and here is the gist of their conversation: Image filenames that are descriptive are helpful from an Image Search standpoint because they help Google understand what an image is about. Alt text and the text surrounding the image provide a stronger and more important signal about the image than the filename. Changing the image filename of an already indexed image has a “minimal effect” and likely won't make it better. Changing the filename of an indexed image may result in the renamed image going uncrawled and not indexed for months. 6. Google : The One Thing To Do Before Implementing Geo IP Redirects - Geo IP based redirection is the process of automatically redirecting a website visitor by their geolocation (country, state or city). It works by detecting the visitor's location from their IP address by matching it against a database of IPs and locations. In the latest #AskGooglebot video series, Google's Search Advocate, John Mueller, shares that “this is a pretty complex topic and it can cause headaches depending on how it's implemented. So I'd recommend getting help from experts or reaching out to the Search Central help forum for advice. The most important aspect here is that Googlebot usually crawls and indexes a website just from a single location. If you're showing different content by location only one version will be indexed for search. Because of that, if there's something you consider important on your website, make sure it's on the default content that's shown to all users. And finally, if there's any page you want to have findable in search, make sure that you're not blocking users in other locations from reaching that page.”7. Google: To Have An Unique URL You Need A Character The /? - Google's John Mueller said on Twitter "Using just "/?" at the end of a URL is equivalent to not having anything after the slash. You need at least 1 character after the "?"."8. Google: There Is No Need To Use English URLs For Pages Not In English - Google's John Mueller wrote on Twitter "There's no need to use English URLs of the content isn't in English. That said, keywords in URLs are a bit overrated, so I wouldn't worry too much about it." The same information was conveyed back in 2018 in a video.9. Google: Spam Update Rolling Out - It has been 11 months since the last time Google released a spam update and now Google announced the October 2022 spam update. The spam updates help document reads:“While Google's automated systems to detect search spam are constantly operating, we occasionally make notable improvements to how they work. When we do, we refer to this as a spam update and share when they happen on our list of Google Search ranking updates. For example, SpamBrain is our AI-based spam-prevention system. From time-to-time, we improve that system to make it better at spotting spam and to help ensure it catches new types of spam.”Here are the important things you need to know about the October 2022 Spam Update: Name: Google October 2022 Spam Update  Launched: October 19, 2022 at around 11 am ET  Rollout: It will take several days to fully roll out  Targets: It improves Google's spam detection techniques, Google said "sites that violate our policies may rank lower in results or not appear in results at all."  Penalty: It penalizes spam techniques that are against Google's spam policies.  Global: This is a global update impacting all regions and languages.  Impact: Google will not disclose what percentage of queries or searches were impacted by this update.  Recover: If you were hit by this, Google said you should review its spam policies to ensure they are complying with those.  Refreshes: Google will do periodic refreshes to the spam update. It can take many months to recover, Google said. 10. YouTube Ads: Moment Blast & Expanded Product Feeds For Discovery Ads - YouTube is launching a new offering called “Moment Blast,” designed to reach viewers during events like live sports, movie releases, or product launches. Moment Blast gives advertisers prime positioning on YouTube Select content on connected TVs (CTV) and other devices, plus a Branded Title Card and optional Masthead placement. Moment Blast is intended for brands looking to raise awareness during key moments, like major sporting events, movie releases or product launches. In the announcement, YouTube says “People have always connected in front of the TV screen, but YouTube gives them the unique chance to bond over shared passions — like watching live-streamed concerts, fitness classes or even religious ceremonies together. They feel a similar connection to the ads they get, too.” YouTube also claims that 59% of respondents in a survey feel that ads they see on YouTube are more relevant than on linear TV or other streaming apps.Furthermore, YouTube will be expanding product feeds to Discovery ads to help advertisers scale their social media creative and reach more engaged viewers. Soon, product feeds will also include local offers, allowing brands to show real-time availability for products in their Google Merchant Center so people can find the most convenient place to buy. Creators will also be able to transform their content into virtual storefronts. Additionally, more creators will have the ability to tag products in their videos and Shorts. These features will be available on November 10.11. Google Ads Updates “Unavailable Video” Policy - This week, Google quietly updated its “Unavailable Video” policy to give advertisers a clearer understanding of the disapproval reason and how to rectify the issue quickly. The four reasons why you may receive an ad disapproval with “Unavailable Video” policy are: Video status changed to “deleted” after submission. Video status changed to “private” after submission. Video marked live premiere. Videos marked sponsors or members only. 12. Google Ads: Seasonal Video Ad Templates Are Now Available - To support your holiday and seasonal marketing efforts, new seasonally-themed video ad templates are available in Google Ads. The templates have designs and music tracks that reference the following holidays and moments: Diwali, Hanukkah, Christmas and seasonal sales events like Cyber Monday and Black Friday. Expect to see additional templates applicable to more seasonal moments throughout the coming months.As with all of their templates, you can customize them with your images, logo, brand colors and text. Videos you make may be used in any campaign that accepts video assets, like Performance Max campaigns, Video action campaigns and App campaigns. These campaign types automatically scale to YouTube Shorts inventory, where vertical video assets are most effective. You can browse all of the templates by clicking here.13. Google Ads : 3 New Reporting Columns - Google Ads has rolled out three new columns to reports that make it easier to understand how conversions impact campaign performance. Before this update, you would have had to apply custom segments to see each conversion action and the categories they fall under. Now the data is more readily available. The new columns are: Results : shows the number of conversions you've received across your primary conversion actions for each of the standard goals in your account. In addition, you'll also see the impact this campaign is driving against goals it's not optimizing towards. Results value : shows the calculated conversion values you've received across your primary conversion actions for each of the standard goals in your account. Conversion goals: shows the goals listed in your campaign-level settings that drive performance. 14. Google/YouTube Audio Ads Now Available - Google in their announcement cites data from Edison Research that finds YouTube is the second-most popular destination for listening to podcasts. Now, all Google advertisers can reach podcast listeners with audio ads on YouTube. Audio ads are also served to people who listen to music on YouTube. However, there's an option to limit targeting to podcast listeners if that's who you're primarily interested in targeting.

Every time you leave the Silence for too long now, you get Homesick. Homesick looks like anger, it looks like stress, it looks like fatigue. And even as you experience the fatigue, you listen again for the Lover's voice. And you remember that where the fatigue appears to be only Rest is, only Perfection is. When you forget to hear Silence, you hear thoughts-- thoughts that tell you that you're tired, that you've still got a long way to go...when you're really Home, already. You're always Home.

Are you someone who eats lunch in a hurry, perhaps while catching up on emails?This might not sound hugely significant BUT it can come at a not insignificant cost, even if you have the cleanest, healthiest diet – as my guest Dr Rangan Chatterjee can explain.He talks about the ritual of lunch, about taking our time, about stepping off the daily treadmill – to be able to slip into the all important rest and digest parasympathetic nervous system.If we're not in that state when we eat – no matter how healthy the food we are consuming is – we simply cannot digest properly.. and the repercussions on our physical and mental health can be serious.**Follow/message me:Instagram https://www.instagram.com/simonmundie/Twitter https://twitter.com/simonmundieAnd for the 'Mundie on Monday' newsletter - featuring three of the best Life Lessons from three years and 200 of these conversations - head to simonmundie.com (where you can also drop me an email) Our GDPR privacy policy was updated on August 8, 2022.

"Rest" is a popular slang amongst youths and it annoys me when my friend just says 'Rest'. That is probably because it does not make logical sense to rest in obviously depressing situations. In this episode, Matilda and Damilola explore abiding in God's rest and how sensible or not it is.

If we agree that retreat is good, what does that mean? What does it look like? Animals take time to rest over long periods. We are living creatures. So it is natural that we should change our rhythms for a season. It could be that we set some things down, or that we pick up something new. How we retreat is up to us individually. Everyone's different. What is important is that we retreat. To do so is vital to our maturity as Christians

Episode Description As educators and young folks reflect and engage in end-of-school rituals, we're closing Season One of Dancing on Desks with our Love Letter to Education. We hear from storytellers, poets, students, and educators who joined us this season to check back and hear about their summer dreams. We have collective dreams of reading books, taking naps, swimming in lakes, oceans, and pools, gardening, swimming, hugging our families and friends, and resting. Erin and monét share their love letter to education, discussing the ways in which abolition is an invitation to living by a love ethic (shout out to bell hooks) and centering practices of care and accountability and R-E-S-T. High school teacher Jessica Rucker shares her abecedarian, “A Love Letter to Education and Unlearning” as she leaves the classroom to pursue her dreams. Poet and graduating high school senior Zoe Bredesen protects her peace in her poem “If the Roles Were Reversed”. Finally, we offer our questions: If we love education, what does this love sound like, feel like, look like, smell like? How might we live there?

Going forward, the focus will be on original work. Things to know: Content edited outside of Instagram and then uploaded to the app won't be penalized under this change. Per Mosseri: “The idea is if you made it, it's original. It's okay if you edited it outside of Instagram and then bring it in via the gallery.” Posting history is a factor - Mosseri makes it clear that content aggregators are the focus of this update. “If the account is an aggregator, we'll more likely be able to detect that it's not original.” If you're re-posting a lot of content from other accounts, you'll notice a drop in reach. Until now, posting popular memes was a straightforward way to increase engagement, but that may no longer be the case. Instagram's original content ranking is a work in progress. Instagram, according to Mosseri, has no way of knowing whether or not anything is original. "We create classifiers to forecast how *likely* something is to be unique, but that's not the same as knowing. We consider stuff like who's in the video and whether or not we've seen it before." So, if you're sharing information from other sources, you might see that different people appear in each of your uploads, which could be a red flag, especially because Instagram's algorithm looks for duplicate posts. Announcement here. 

Today we are talking about something that is really important… the concept of rest. The network marketing industry is full of hustle culture, but ladies, you need to learn the work of REST. The reality is there is a lot of push to get a team, sales, etc. It is so important to recognize the signs of burnout.  Burnout could be you feeling run-down, losing your passion for what you usually love to do, or the thought of having to do anything around your business is full of dread. I want to get you to the point where you don't get to the burnout, you are able to recognize it before you even get close to burnout.  Today we are talking about how the REST is the work, the hustle is not. It's a hard concept because we live in a society where our value comes from how much we produce, how hard we work, our results. So we want those results.  Take a minute to think back to when you first  signed up and joined your company. Most people sign up for freedom-- financial freedom, calendar freedom, schedule freedom.  Hustling is NOT getting that freedom!  What if you built a business that was reliant on the REST. Envision this: what does your ideal business look like? What does your schedule look like? How do you see your business? What do you want out of your business? How does your family life, and personal life play a part? What would feel good to you? Start setting those boundaries. It's time for you to take control of your calendar and your business!  I just went on vacation and was tempted to work. Why did I think I needed to continue working on vacation? Vacation is important. Rest is important. Rest is part of the work.  You need to make sure you are taking some time and release that pressure about being productive. The REST is powerful and necessary in order for you to be productive.  What is your creative space? Reflect on that and what you need. The hustle hurts. If you hustle, hustle, hustle, then you will be forced to break and stop and not on your own terms. Put aside some rest. Schedule it in. Do what YOU need.   Links: Rachel's Instagram Rachel's Facebook Rachel's Website

We've made it to April which means I'm coming up on the 1 year anniversary of moving to LA! A lot has happened in the last year–-a lot of good, a lot of not so good…Either way, something that I have come to appreciate more this year is Rest and that is the theme for today's episode. We spend some time talking about the importance of Rest in today's hyper-productive, hustle-culture society and write a deliciously pop-inspired song about going to bed! Using a songwriting prompt from Sarah Spencer's Five-In-Five Challenge at SongFancy, this song came together from this prompt:"Write about a sacred place you know well"To learn more about SongFancy and the Five-In-Five Challenge, go to http://songfancy.com/5-in-5-songwriting-challenge/@50badsongs@timroskowww.patreon.com/50badsongswww.50badsongs.bandcamp.com

Rest is underrated in our modern world. We need it more than ever. I've been inspired by the book 'Rest' by Alex Pang. However it's important to understand why and the importance of balancing it with work. We're not designed to rest 24/7.

Hey there Brazen Babe! Let's be honest... burnout is no stranger to us. We've all felt it. The stress, worry, and anxiety. Maybe you can't sleep well, or your mind is constantly spinning, or you feel sluggish and lack focus. All of these signs are like alarms going off in your body telling you to slow down. And I think it's about time that we listen. I think it's time that we take note of what God did on the seventh day, and R E S T!

Normally, I show up with more of an outline, but today I come in raw and real with a wish (seriously, I am hearing voices!).   I am getting the message from all over: R E S T.  Oh, and add a spoonful of Fun.  Just because.   Because we all need a collective hug right now, today, I am inviting you into the space of Rest.    Raw Resonant REST.   We go deep into why we seek what we do, in the arts and beyond (*hint*: it has something to do with reverberations of emotions/feelings/sensations across spaces. And - you guessed it - the theatre is where it happens most powerfully!).   I share a belief I uncovered about myself this year that shocked me. Grab your hammer and poke holes alongside me into the facades we all have, the masks we all wear. Let's dig below the surface of rest, of art, of ourselves.    Like creativity, rest cannot be contained. It's unpredictable. Just like chairs being thrown out of the sky (yes, this DID happen, at completely resonant moments. Universe, we hear you!)   Instead of DO-ING, let's focus on BE-ING.  As on the stage, as in life, the be-ing is what's most interesting.    We are speaking the melody of slowing dowwwn, so take it at your own pace - #speechforthestage a e i o u R ray - ree - rai - roh - roo    Also, after you listen or before you listen: V O T E !!!   Play with me on IG: @serabanda     Want to write me a wish letter?: impulse@actortoartist.com   Join the International Electr(on)ic Ensemble: actortoartist.com   Disclaimer: Your use of the content on this podcast, content on actortoartist.com, content on our social media or content from our email list is at your own risk.

Join us as we interview Dr John Walton (professor of Old Testament at Wheaton College and one of the world's most prominent scholars and voices on Ancient near east background to the Bible) with crucial questions like 1. How do we read/interpret the creation account (literal 24 hours or something else)? 2. How did the original readers of Genesis read the creation account (function vs origin/house vs home). 3. What does it mean made in the image of God? 3. What was significant about "God resting on the 7th day"? And much more.
