As 2025 draws to a close, James and David come together for a wide-ranging Christmas conversation that reflects on a turbulent year in education – and looks ahead to where hope, change, and renewal might yet be found. Kicking off with a powerful metaphor drawn from winter sea swimming, the discussion explores why schools currently feel so ‘choppy', from behaviour and attendance to widening inequality and system-level pressures. Along the way, we reflect on what really matters in education – relationships, belonging, and being known – and why these often get squeezed out by accountability and assessment. The episode revisits key debates sparked by the Curriculum and Assessment Review, including the future of GCSEs, the limits of ‘manageable change', and the uneasy separation of curriculum, assessment, and pedagogy. A detour into restorative justice, inspired by Punch and the story of Jacob Dunne, deepens the conversation about connection, responsibility, and what happens when people are truly seen. The parallels with schooling – and with how society treats its most vulnerable young people – are stark. The episode closes on a hopeful note, spotlighting examples of schools doing brave, relational, and imaginative work within the current system, and outlining plans for the podcast in 2026: fewer trench wars, more light-shining on practice that actually helps children and young people thrive. James also shares upcoming programmes and projects focused on oracy, behaviour, botheredness, and learning beyond subjects – all grounded in the belief that meaningful change is possible when we start with relationships and implementation. In this episode, we explore: - Why education feels ‘choppy' – and what the winter swim metaphor reveals - Behaviour, discipline, and the limits of coercive models - Restorative justice, Punch, and the power of being known - What the Curriculum and Assessment Review did – and didn't – make possible - GCSEs, adolescent development, and the problem of high-stakes exams at 16 - Why relationships matter more than systems – and what the evidence says - Examples of hopeful practice already happening in schools - What's next for the podcast in 2026 Support #repod The Rethinking Education podcast is brought to you by Crown House Publishing.

Too often, the criminal legal system fails people who experience harm or violence. At the same time, it also often fails the communities that harmed people are members of.  In many cases, survivors and the accused belong to the same community. Restorative justice centers the specific needs of people who have experienced harm or violence with an eye towards healing both the harmed individuals along with the community that was impacted by the harm or violence. Compared to punitive criminal legal system policies, restorative justice approaches better address the root causes of threats to public safety by remedying harm and repairing relationships at the individual and community levels. In this episode of Justice Above All, guests discuss the diverse practices connected with restorative justice as well as the positive outcomes that are associated with it.  Guests will also discuss how we can incorporate such approaches to build greater safety in our communities.For more information on this episode, please visit: tminstituteldf.org/justice-above-all. This episode was produced by Lauren O'Neil.

In this fourth episode of the Peace series, we explore the deeply cleansing and restorative Ksepana Mudra—a hand gesture traditionally used to release heaviness, emotional residue, and mental clutter. This practice invites you to gently let go of what you've been holding, especially the stress and tension that tend to accumulate during busy seasons or at the close of the year. With your hands shaped in Ksepana Mudra, fingers interlaced and index fingers extended, you'll be guided to imagine old energy flowing out and fresh clarity flowing in. Paired with slow, steady breathing, this mudra helps clear the mind, lighten the spirit, and create spaciousness where peace can naturally rise. This episode is a quiet reminder that release is a form of renewal. As you soften into the mudra, you may feel a subtle shift—from weight to openness, from overwhelm to ease, from holding on to letting go. Ksepana Mudra offers you a pathway back to inner peace, one soft exhale and one gentle release at a time. This is a replay of a series I recorded a few years ago! ALL ABOUT THIS WEEK'S SERIES As the year winds down and the world grows louder with commitments, celebrations, and expectations, this series invites you to do something rare and powerful: slow down. The Peace Meditation Series is your gentle companion through the end-of-year rush and into the quiet promise of a brand new beginning. Each episode is designed to help you release what no longer serves you, soften the nervous system, and return to a deep sense of calm—no matter what the season brings. Whether you are reflecting on the year behind you or setting intentions for the year ahead, these moments of stillness are here to steady your breath, clear your mind, and reconnect you with your inner peace. This is not about striving or fixing. It is about remembering the calm that already lives within you. Welcome to your season of peace. Welcome to "A Gentle Path to Peace." This is day 4 of a 7-day meditation series, "A Gentle Path to Peace," episodes 1648-1654. Prepare to embrace peace in daily life.

Integrating cutting-edge science with the ancient wisdom tradition of Ayurveda, Dr. Suhas Kshirsagar and Dr. Sheila Patel, authors of Awakened Sleep, share how we can have a balanced, restorative sleep that can unlock our full human potential.

December is here! A time for holidays and merriment and… exhaustion? Even when we commit to a simple holiday season, it's easy to get run down and sluggish from the additional activities, heavy foods, and seasonal colds. But there are definitely things we can do to prioritize our well-being so that we can enter the holiday with vigor. Getting proper sleep, nourishment, fresh air, rest, and an extra dose of fermented foods, will help us fortify our systems this season. Join me in a new location as we reflect on ways to bring restorative rituals into our lives this holiday. What am I reading?Witches of Dubious Origin by Jenn McKinlayhttps://bookshop.org/a/111301/9780593819753The Little Book of Winter: A Cozy Guide to a Season of Comfort and Happiness by Brittany Viklundhttps://bookshop.org/a/111301/9781507224397https://bookshop.org/shop/witchywomanwalkingWhat's playing on repeat?Im Doing Fine by MarinoWhat's for dinner?Immune Boosting SoupIngredients:2 tbsp extra virgin oil1 large onion, diced3 large carrots, chopped2 parsnip or sweet potatoes 3 stalks celery, finely chopped6 cloves garlic minced2 tbsp fresh ginger, minced1 tsp dried turmeric¾ cup red lentils2 tbsp fresh parsley½ tsp sea salt, more to taste4 cups vegetable broth + 2 cup water2 cups kale or spinach, finely chopped1 small lemon, juicedInstructions:Warm olive oil in a large pot on medium heat.

Send us a textIn this episode, we dive into one of the most underestimated foundations of autoimmune healing and hair recovery: sleep.So many people insist they “function fine” on six hours, a midnight bedtime, or restless nights — but the body tells a very different story. When you finally experience restorative sleep, the kind that calms inflammation, regulates the immune system, stabilises cortisol, and gives hair follicles the safety signals they need to grow, everything begins to shift. Less shedding. Clearer skin. A calmer gut. A more resilient mood and nervous system. More stable energy.Sleep is not passive; it is a biologically active repair state. And it's during deep sleep and early-night slow-wave sleep that the body performs its most profound healing: detoxifying the brain via the glymphatic system, recalibrating immune cells, lowering inflammatory cytokines, and supporting the hair cycle's transition back into growth.In this Friday 5, I break down the five science-backed levers that make the biggest impact on sleep quality for those with autoimmune conditions or alopecia — from nervous-system nutrients like magnesium, L-theanine and phosphatidylserine, to vagal tone practices, to circadian alignment, blue-light protection, and the often-resisted but deeply transformative 10pm repair window, when most cellular, hormonal and follicular repair occurs.This episode is for you if you've been feeling wired-but-tired, waking at 3am, noticing seasonal shedding, or living in a constant state of “pushing through.”By the end, you'll understand not just what improves sleep, but why these strategies work — and how they support full-body repair on a physiological level.BodyBio Calm – magnesium and taurine formula to lower stress and support GABA balance

Solving problems with care and clarity through the strength of Restorative

Welcome to Fertility & Sterility Roundtable! Each week, we will host a discussion with the authors of "Views and Reviews" and "Fertile Battle" articles published in a recent issue of Fertility & Sterility.  This week, we welcome Dr. Richard Paulson and Dr. Jamie Kuhlman to discuss Restorative Reproductive Medicine (RRM) — a field that describes itself as focusing on identifying and treating the root causes of infertility rather than bypassing or suppressing natural reproductive processes. In this episode, we explore whether RRM represents a truly novel approach to fertility care, examine its religious and political influences, and consider the potential risks the movement poses to access to evidence-based fertility treatments, including IVF. Dr. Richard Paulson holds the Alia Tutor Chair in Reproductive Medicine and is Professor and vice-chair in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at the University of Southern California, where he is also Director of the Fellowship in Reproductive Endocrinology and Infertility. He is past president of the American Society for Reproductive Medicine, and of the Pacific Coast Reproductive Society. Dr. Paulson has authored over 300 scientific articles and has received more than 35 awards for research and scientific presentations. He is the current Editor-in-Chief of "Fertility & Sterility Reports."  Dr. Kuhlman is a Licensed Psychologist and the Owner of Courageous Path Counseling, PLLC, in Nashville, TN. She specializes in infertility, postpartum, and maternal mental health through individual counseling and psychological evaluations for third-party reproduction. She is also a PRIMED Scholar with the American Society of Reproductive Medicine, focusing on advocacy within reproductive healthcare.  The unscientific nature of the arguments of "Restorative Reproductive Medicine" and why we need to understand them https://www.fertstertreports.org/article/S2666-3341(25)00111-4/fulltext The illusion of reproductive choice: how restorative reproductive medicine violates reproductive autonomy and informed consent https://www.fertstert.org/article/S0015-0282(25)00596-5/fulltext   View Fertility and Sterility at https://www.fertstert.org/

"Dysregulation puts us into a state of compression, not expansion. This is how we can back to growth."It's time to move beyond survival of burnout and into intentional and integrative living. Michele Oelking is the founder of Souljourn Coaching & Consulting and today, she joins us to explore how neurodivergence intersects with burnout, overwhelm, and the challenges of living fully in our bodies and minds.

She describes sitting face-to-face with those who caused her harm, not for retribution, but for understanding and potential healing. Amanda's insights challenge conventional ideas about punishment and forgiveness. She explains why facing those responsible for harm can be more difficult, and more transformative, than serving time behind bars. Her reflections on empathy, guilt versus shame, and the possibility of human transformation remind us that accountability is not weakness — it's the foundation of real justice.  Amanda is a successful global business owner, dynamic speaker, consultant, and leader who values community and justice, and is the author of Becoming the Brave One: My Journey to Justice. She brings an opportunity to break the cycle of harm and restore our sense of belonging. Restorative justice is the core of her practice, and she is a certified facilitator through the Restorative Justice Council. She holds four master's degrees from multiple nations, two of them in law. She is a powerful advocate, survivor, and storyteller who believes in the power of truth, healing, and transformation.  Tune in to hear how restorative justice places victims and communities at the center of the process, asking not only what law was broken but who was harmed and how do we make it right.

In this hol+ episode, Dr. Taz sits down with worlds leading nitric oxide researcher Dr. Nathan S. Bryan to ask hard questions about statin risk versus benefit, why cholesterol alone does not explain heart disease, and what is nitric oxide actually doing inside the body long before a heart attack or stroke. Together, they explore why low or no nitric oxide may be the missing piece behind rising blood pressure, plaque, and dementia, even in people who “follow the rules.”From the benefits of nitric oxide for blood flow, blood pressure, diabetes, and brain health to the surprising impact of antiseptic mouthwash and antacid medications, this conversation reframes cardiovascular and metabolic disease as problems of cell signaling, not just lab numbers. You will learn what nitric oxide is, what does nitric oxide do for the body, why nitric oxide importance is often ignored in standard care, and how to raise nitric oxide through lifestyle, targeted support, and emerging restorative therapies based on decades of nitric oxide research.Dr. Taz and Dr. Bryan discuss:New cholesterol guidelines, statins, and rethinking risk vs benefitWhat is nitric oxide and what does nitric oxide do for the bodyWhy low or no nitric oxide shows up decades before heart attacks and strokeThe benefits of nitric oxide for blood flow, blood pressure, and sexual functionNitric oxide diabetes link and why insulin resistance is often a nitric oxide problemMouthwash and nitric oxide, antacids, fluoride, and the oral microbiomeHow lifestyle, diet, movement, and nasal breathing raise nitric oxide naturallyWhy standard biomarkers are late and vascular function should be tested soonerNitric oxide importance in Alzheimer's, dementia, and brain blood flowHow to raise nitric oxide safely and what to know about supplements vs “dead beets”About Dr. Nathan S. Bryan Dr. Nathan S. Bryan is a pioneering nitric oxide researcher, molecular medicine scientist, and biotech entrepreneur whose discoveries helped create a billion dollar nitric oxide market. His work has reshaped how we understand cardiovascular disease, metabolic health, nitric oxide diabetes links, and how lifestyle, mouthwash and nitric oxide, and common drugs impact long term health. He is the author of The Secret of Nitric Oxide, where he breaks down what nitric oxide is, what nitric oxide does for the body, and how to raise nitric oxide safely at home using science based tools and lifestyle shifts.

Restorative Practices for Conflict Transformation: What does Restorative Justice have to do with my life?Susan Raffo says: “There is no essential ‘right way' to do anything. There is only relationship, connection, being present with what is happening and then, even if that relationship is with disconnection, determining the next step.”Our relationships are complex and many are with disconnection. Conflict is everywhere. There are conflict zones, government shutdowns, political strife, family tension, work disputes, and traffic jams. How does your jaw feel after reading that sentence? Where are your shoulders? Conflict can feel stressful. How do we learn about and understand conflict? Is conflict bad? How do we determine that next step?Restorative Justice is a framework for strengthening and healing relationships with self, family, friends, community and society. Restorative practices have to do with the ways we view conflict and how we choose to respond to it. For example, sitting in circles, with no hierarchy, listening deeply to one another and also being deeply listened to…these simple tasks can profoundly change how we experience and move through conflict. Being grounded in our bodies instead of overthinking is a counter-cultural shift for many of us in the US. What are other restorative practices and how are they relevant to our lives? Where do they intersect with our UU values? And how does this help us to get through the day?

Send us a textChange that lasts doesn't come from a one-time high or another sleepless night patched by a pill. It comes from disciplined, daily work that your brain can actually keep—paired with leadership that people trust when it matters most. Steve sits down with Marine veteran and CEO Tony Crescenzo to unpack how audio-driven brain signals can turn short-term “state” shifts into month-later “trait” changes, especially for first responders who need real restorative sleep, calmer stress responses, and sharp, on-demand focus.Tony explains why many sleep aids trade consciousness for quality, and how targeted signals—played on speakers, no headphones required—help nudge your brain into restorative rhythms you can retain. We talk timing and caution with upregulation tools, creative research that mimics ketamine-like EEG states without the drug, and why a practical 28 to 31 day window is fast when you're aiming for durable change. Therapy isn't sidelined; it's strengthened. Cultural competence, honest fit, and doing the work between sessions matter as much as any technology.Then we move from personal resilience to organizational resilience. Tony draws from the Marine Corps to break down four levels of leadership, from positional authority to field effect, where mission, vision, values, and culture guide action even when you're not in the room. He favors bad news because it's actionable, builds systems that surface hard questions, and sets expectations so clearly that people don't have to guess. Management keeps metrics on track; leadership gives the plan meaning and keeps teams aligned under pressure.If you're a first responder, veteran, or leader trying to build a healthier, higher-performing team, this conversation offers tools you can use today and habits you can keep for the long haul.

Content Warning: rape, self-harm, and suicidal ideation. Marlee Liss is a survivor,award-winning speaker, victim advocate, somatic educator, and author from Toronto, Canada. She grew up in the arts, but pivoted to social work when she began her college career. It was in Marlee's junior year when her life changed forever; she became the victim of a sexual assault and entered an arduous journey in the criminal justice system as a result. However, three years into that battle for justice, Marlee found an additional path: restorative justice. According to Walden University, quote “Punitive justice is the idea of punishing criminals for their crimes against society or the legal system itself, and is the traditional method of handling crime in the United States. Restorative justice seeks to bring victims of crimes into the justice process. Criminals are asked to take accountability for their wrongdoing by facing those they have wronged... The theory is that criminals owe more than a debt to society—they owe a debt to specific people,” end quote. The two processes are not always mutually exclusive. It's important to note that criminal justice can occur tandemly with restorative justice practices. The Broken Cycle Media team is so very grateful for Marlee's powerful perspective advocacy and time and energy in sharing in this episode.

October might be over, but kindness shouldn't be. In this week's episode, I'm sharing how restorative practices can take your school from reactive to relational — and how simple daily routines can build a culture where students feel safe, seen, and supported.Restorative practices aren't about punishment; they're about connection. When we focus on building relationships first, we prevent harm — and when harm does happen, we know how to repair it with empathy and understanding.I'll walk you through what this looks like at each tier — from morning greetings and check-ins to community circles and peer mediation programs — so you can start building a stronger sense of belonging right where you are.✨ In this episode, I share:Simple ways to weave restorative practices into your daily routinesHow to use greetings, check-ins, and circles to strengthen relationshipsWhat each tier of restorative practice looks like in actionWhy reflection, not punishment, leads to lasting behavior changeHow connection and accountability go hand in handIf you've been looking for a way to take your anti-bullying work beyond October, this episode will help you do just that — one greeting, one circle, one conversation at a time.Because when we build connection into every day, kindness becomes who we are, not just what we do.

In this episode of Protect Our Kids, Kristi Bush discusses the critical difference between punitive and restorative language when communicating with children. She emphasizes the importance of using language that fosters understanding and growth rather than fear and punishment. Through various examples, she illustrates how restorative language can help children learn from their mistakes and build trust, while also acknowledging the necessary role of punitive language in certain situations. The conversation highlights the need for a balanced approach to parenting that encourages open communication and emotional regulation.

"The adults in the building need healing just as much as the kids do. Self-compassion isn't soft. It's the most radical act of self-preservation an educator can practice."  That's a quote from my guest in this episode, Marisol Quevedo Rerucha. She's the author of Beyond the Surface of Restorative Practices and the CEO of Heartset Consulting Group. A former teacher, principal, and district leader, she now supports individuals, communities, and systems in building high-trust, equity-centered spaces. Together, Marisol and I explore what a restorative way of being looks like, how to build a classroom culture rooted in belonging and accountability, and why self-compassion is a foundational part of this work. Marisol also shares her personal story of healing, offers real classroom examples, and closes with an unforgettable metaphor about facing life's hardest moments with courage and community. In this powerful conversation, Marisol Revucha shares why so many educators feel disillusioned with restorative practices and what needs to shift for true transformation to occur. Whether your school is fully immersed in restorative practices or you're just starting to explore what it means, this conversation offers both heart and strategy. You'll walk away with a clearer vision for what's possible—not just for your students, but for yourself. Topics include: Why restorative justice often fails in schools How to build a culture of repair and accountability The role of self-compassion in restorative work Real-time responses when students act out Restorative practices for staff—not just students "Being the buffalo": facing the storm together Get the shareable article/transcript for this episode here.

Injection Molding PDF Email me: Dr.melissaseibert@gmail.com Join Elevated GP: www.theelevatedgp.com Follow @dental_digest_podcast Instagram Follow @dr.melissa_seibert on Instagram Episode Summary In this powerful continuation of their two-part conversation, Dr. Melissa Seibert and Dr. David Attia dive beyond digital workflows to confront the deeper philosophical questions shaping modern implant dentistry. Building on last week's discussion of data stacking, SmileCloud integration, and biologically driven design, this episode explores the nuanced realities of aesthetic-zone decision-making, ethical treatment planning, and the human side of high-level clinical care. Dr. Attia opens with an unflinching look at when—and why—implants may not be the ideal solution. Using examples from his collaboration with renowned prosthodontist Dr. Tony Rotondo, he explains why lateral incisors often perform better with resin-bonded fixed partial dentures (FDPs) rather than implants, especially in cases with limited mesiodistal space or compromised interproximal bone. He and Dr. Seibert examine the synergy between partial extraction therapy and resin-bonded FDPs, illustrating how biologic preservation can achieve long-term aesthetic stability with less surgical intervention. From there, the conversation transitions to Attia's mastery of provisionalization strategies in the aesthetic zone. He details how he designs custom healing abutments and Maryland-style bridges that provide patients with fixed provisionals—even when primary stability is limited. Listeners gain an inside look at his precision-driven process for contouring the subcritical zone, controlling soft-tissue architecture, and creating minimal yet functional clearance between the pontic and abutment. His philosophy is simple but profound: every anterior patient should leave the chair with something fixed—even if it isn't load-bearing. The discussion then widens to tackle the moral tension between commercial dentistry and biologic integrity. Dr. Seibert asks the hard question: How do clinicians reconcile high-quality, time-intensive dentistry with the economic pressures of high-volume practice? Dr. Attia's answer is unequivocal—ethical dentistry may take longer and require greater effort, but the money follows the mastery. He critiques the growing trend of overtreatment in both restorative and surgical spheres, warning of a coming wave of revision cases born from expedience and over-commercialization. Attia advocates for a "longevity-first" mindset—prioritizing preservation over replacement, patient education over production, and sustainable outcomes over speed. Drawing from his own follow-ups across fourteen practices, he reflects on the humility and evolution that come with long-term case review: what he did six months ago wasn't wrong—but it can always be better. The episode concludes with a candid meditation on values alignment in practice. Both clinicians emphasize the importance of knowing one's philosophy, communicating it transparently, and being comfortable acknowledging that "you're not everyone's dentist." Attia urges younger practitioners to resist the social-media allure of aggressive full-arch cases, reminding them that truly exceptional dentistry begins with sound biologic principles, refined communication, and disciplined restraint. Listeners will leave this episode with: A framework for choosing between implants and resin-bonded FDPs in the aesthetic zone Strategies for designing custom provisionals that maintain soft-tissue integrity Guidance on educating patients about biologic and financial "costs" of treatment Insight into navigating the ethical crossroads of modern dentistry This conversation is both technical and deeply human—a masterclass on how to balance innovation with integrity and how to practice dentistry that endures not just biologically, but ethically.

Intuitive eating has become all the rage, it seems. And while great in principle, I argue that intuitive eating - especially in recovery from an eating disorder and thereafter - has some shortcomings. In this week's episode, I talk about how and why I myself don't always eat intuitively, and why it is so important to sometimes eat restoratively and functionally. Why do we sometimes need to eat more than we intuitively want? And how can you manage that in recovery? All that and more, in this week's episode.

Injection Molding PDF Join Elevated GP: www.theelevatedgp.com Follow @dental_digest_podcast Instagram Follow @dr.melissa_seibert on Instagram In this episode of Dental Digest, host Dr. Melissa Seibert sits down with Dr. Marcella Alvarez, prosthodontist and educator, to explore one of the most transformative ideas in modern interdisciplinary dentistry—pre-orthodontic bonding. Dr. Alvarez explains how this restorative-driven approach flips the traditional sequence by establishing anatomy and function before orthodontic treatment. The result: improved collaboration, reduced guesswork, and highly predictable outcomes for patients with severe wear and collapsed bites. Together, they discuss practical workflows—analog and digital—diagnostic frameworks from Robbins and Rouse's Global Diagnosis, and the critical role of airway-conscious planning in long-term success. Whether you're a GP, prosthodontist, or orthodontist, this conversation reframes how you think about sequencing, diagnosis, and comprehensive, minimally invasive care.
