My new book, "The Weight Loss Cure," offers a step-by-step guide to rebuilding your gut ecosystem so you can restore your body's natural weight-control system — no injections required Your gut produces the same GLP-1 hormone that weight-loss drugs like Ozempic mimic, meaning your body already has the natural machinery for appetite control and fat burning Damage from seed oils and low-fiber diets weakens your gut barrier, disrupts GLP-1 signaling, and causes inflammation that blocks weight loss A key gut bacterium called Akkermansia muciniphila helps repair your gut lining, balance blood sugar, and promote natural fat loss — even in its pasteurized, non-living form Restoring gut health begins with repairing the barrier, reducing linoleic acid intake, and gradually reintroducing diverse fibers to produce "Gut Gems" like butyrate that calm inflammation and stabilize metabolism

Welcome back to the Restoring the Soul podcast with Michael John Cusick. In this episode, Michael and AJ Denson dive deeper into the transformative concepts from Michael's book, Sacred Attachment: Escaping Spiritual Exhaustion and Trusting Divine Love. Picking up where they left off, the conversation centers on the “Four S's” of attachment—Seen, Soothed, Safe, and Secure—and explores how these elements shape our spiritual and relational lives.Together, they reflect on the nuances of secure and insecure attachment, the power of rupture and repair in relationships, and how even well-intentioned parents and caregivers can struggle to meet these needs. Michael brings personal stories and practical insights, offering hope for healing attachment wounds, whether through new relational patterns or divine love.The episode also tackles the complex reality that attachment styles are not fixed but evolve with our circumstances and emotional states. Through compassionate storytelling and relatable examples, the hosts unravel what it means to be “soothed”—the crucial experience of knowing someone has “got you” in moments of distress, vulnerability, and everyday life.Support the showENGAGE THE RESTORING THE SOUL PODCAST:- Follow us on YouTube - Tweet us at @michaeljcusick and @PodcastRTS- Like us on Facebook- Follow us on Instagram & Twitter- Follow Michael on Twitter- Email us at info@restoringthesoul.com Thanks for listening!

Smylie and Charlie recap a wild Sunday at PGA National where the Bear Trap once again decided the Cognizant Classic. After Shane Lowry appeared in total control — birdieing 9, eagling 10, and building a three-shot lead — everything unraveled at the 16th tee.

DescriptionAndrew Zwerneman, writer and narrator for HISTORY250® and co-founder and president of Cana Academy, joins Christopher Perrin to argue that America's cultural crisis is, at root, a crisis of memory—and that renewing history education is a work of restoration. Zwerneman traces the teachers, places, and lived experiences that formed him as a historian, then explains why the “liberal discipline of history” must resist ideological reduction and return to observation, sympathy, and fidelity to the past. Along the way, they connect historical remembrance to the deepest human questions: personhood, responsibility, freedom, and the moral imagination that societies inherit. The conversation explores how biblical and classical sources shaped the American founding, how later leaders invoked inherited principles to confront slavery and injustice, and why the West's habit of self-criticism depends on conserving what came before. Zwerneman introduces Cana Academy and its HISTORY250®  project as practical efforts to rebuild shared story through films, primary sources, maps, and teacher formation. The episode closes with a vivid picture of what great history instruction looks like: students learning to read documents, geography, art, and narrative so they can live under a shared story and recover “hallowed ground.”Episode OutlineZwerneman's formation: family travel, early teachers, and awakening to the moral weight of historyWhy remembrance is central to human and Christian life: Exodus, Passover, and “do this in remembrance of me”Rejecting “history as a force”: recovering human agency, personhood, and moral dramaAmerican inheritance: scripture, ordered liberty, common law, and natural law in the foundingLearning from paradox: freedom and slavery at the founding; reform movements that appeal to founding idealsThe liberal discipline of history: observation, sympathy, and resisting ideologyWhat students should study: imagery, narratives, structures, data, geography, and the craft of storyCana Academy and HISTORY250®: films, documents, maps, and a “gift” aimed at cultural renewalA tour of the ideal classical history classroom: what you'd see, hear, and practiceKey Topics & TakeawaysHistory restores identity: A people who lose their story lose a clear sense of who they are—and what they owe to the dead and the unborn.Human agency is central: Against “history as a force,” the episode insists that persons mediate between past and present through decisions, sacrifices, and responsibilities.Ordered liberty requires memory: American freedom is rooted in inherited sources (biblical imagination, British rights, common law, natural law), and it decays when citizens forget the responsibilities that attend freedom.History trains moral realism without moralizing: Sympathy is not excuse-making; it is the disciplined effort to understand the human condition before passing judgment.The classroom must return to concrete realities: Great history teaching works from maps, artifacts, documents, portraits, letters, diaries, and place—so students learn “what actually happened.”Shared story creates shared sympathies: Art, poetry, and narrative shape communal feeling and help students situate their lives in a meaningful inheritance.Renewal is practical: Teacher formation, curated primary sources, and accessible tools (films, documents, maps) are presented as tangible ways to fight cultural amnesia.Questions & DiscussionWhat does it mean to study the past “in its pastness”?Discuss why people in the past may act in ways we do not recognize—or approve. How can teachers pursue truth without turning history into propaganda or therapy?How do observation and sympathy change the way we teach hard topics (war, slavery, injustice)?Identify one topic where your students tend to moralize quickly or dismissively. What sources (letters, diaries, speeches, laws, artifacts) could slow them down into careful understanding?What's the difference between “ordered liberty” and “license”?Describe a modern example where freedom is framed as “doing whatever I want.” What habits, texts, or stories could help students reconnect freedom to responsibility and the common good?Which leaders or movements best model “reform by remembering”? Compare at least two examples discussed (e.g., Douglass, Lincoln, King, Chavez). What did each retrieve from the past to address present suffering?What belongs in a strong history curriculum besides a textbook? Make a list under five headings: imagery, narratives, structural analysis, data, and geography. Choose one heading and propose one new classroom routine (weekly map-reading, document lab, portrait study, artifact analysis, narrative-writing).What would you see in a “great classical upper school” history class?Describe the sounds and practices: seminar discussion, source analysis, narration, map work, interpretive writing, and shared reading. What is one change you could make this term that moves your classroom closer to that ideal?Suggested Reading & ResourcesHistory Forgotten and Remembered by Andrew ZwernemanAmerican Slavery, American Freedom by Edmund S.

Show Notes: Notes, references, freebies, and recommendations from this episode can be found here - https://www.morriswellnessservices.com/blog/184   Plastic is one of the most normalized sources of endocrine disruptors in modern life. It's in food storage containers, water bottles, canned goods, non-stick cookware, and takeout packaging. But plastic is not chemically inert. Under certain conditions, the additives used to make plastic durable, flexible, or heat-resistant can migrate into the food and drinks we consume daily. In this episode, we break down how chemicals like BPA, BPS, phthalates, and PFAS move from plastic products into your body. You'll learn how heat, fat, acidity, and time increase chemical migration, why ingestion is the most significant exposure route, and how these compounds act as hormone imposters once inside the body. We discuss how plastic-related endocrine disruptors can: Mimic estrogen Lower progesterone Interfere with thyroid signaling Increase insulin resistance Contribute to fertility challenges Add to metabolic dysfunction This conversation also explains why women are particularly vulnerable due to hormonal cycling, pregnancy, postpartum shifts, and fat tissue storage. Most importantly, we cover practical, non-extreme changes that lower exposure in your kitchen, including avoiding heating plastic, switching to glass storage, replacing damaged non-stick cookware, and being strategic with canned foods and bottled water. Reducing plastic exposure lowers endocrine load. But removing interference is only the first step. Restoring hormone balance requires rebuilding metabolic function intentionally. This episode is part of the Endocrine Disruptor Series, where we explore the everyday exposures quietly impacting women's health and what to do about them with clarity and strategy.   This is the newly rebranded podcast, formerly known as "Your Birth, God's Way".

"Intuition doesn't disappear under pressure — it just gets harder to hear." In this episode, advanced clinical EFT practitioner and trainer Naomi Janzen explores how EFT Tapping (Emotional Freedom Techniques) serves as a "shutoff switch" for the body's internal alarm system. When we are in survival mode, our nervous system is flooded with "noise" that drowns out our inner signals. Naomi explains how tapping on specific meridian points sends calming signals to the brain, telling the amygdala that we are safe. By regulating the nervous system, EFT allows the prefrontal cortex—the part of the brain responsible for higher thinking and clear perception—to come back online. This creates the ideal internal conditions for intuition to be heard clearly, sharpening decision-making and trust in one's "inner signal". In this conversation, we cover: The Science of Tapping: How tapping creates piezoelectricity to interact with the body's bioelectricity. Intuition vs. Survival Mode: Why you can't hear your "quiet wisdom" while in fight-or-flight. Overcoming "Secondary Gain": Understanding the unconscious reasons we hold onto problems or physical injuries. Evidence-Based EFT: Moving beyond "woo-woo" to the 200+ clinical studies that legitimize Tapping in modern medicine. Physical & Emotional Healing: Real-world cases of overcoming trauma, addiction, and even chronic physical limitations like frozen shoulder through EFT. Drawing on decades of experience, Naomi bridges the practical and the intuitive for high-functioning individuals who want their intuition to be a reliable tool, no matter how high the stakes. About Naomi Janzen Naomi Janzen is an advanced clinical EFT practitioner, trainer, and co-author of the Evidence-Based EFT Manual.

Welcome back to another episode of Restoring the Soul with Michael John Cusick. In today's conversation, Michael is joined by AJ Denson as they dive into the foundational building blocks of healthy relationships and spiritual well-being—the "Four S's" of attachment: seen, soothed, safe, and secure.Picking up from their previous conversation on Attachment Neuroscience and the Trinity, Michael unpacks how the story of God is ultimately a story of profound attachment, beginning with the indivisible unity of the Trinity itself. The discussion explores how these four components of attachment shape not only our childhood experiences but also our spiritual lives and adult relationships.Together, they reflect on what it means to be truly seen and delighted in, drawing parallels between the secure love a child needs and the way God knows and loves us deeply. With honest stories, cultural insights, and a grounding in Scripture, this episode offers hope for healing and restoration, even in the places where attachment may have been broken.Support the showENGAGE THE RESTORING THE SOUL PODCAST:- Follow us on YouTube - Tweet us at @michaeljcusick and @PodcastRTS- Like us on Facebook- Follow us on Instagram & Twitter- Follow Michael on Twitter- Email us at info@restoringthesoul.com Thanks for listening!

Poet of the Week, February 23–March 1, 2026. Full text of the poem & interview: brooklynpoets.org/community/poet/isabel-cruz

the last century, churches around the globe have traded the biblical doctrine of family life for worldly pragmatism. This change has led to broken homes and dysfunctional families. To reverse course, the next generation must understand and reclaim what God created the family to be. Hosts Scott Brown and Jason Dohm discuss a new catechism designed to help families in this quest. Using a simple question-and-answer format, it gives robust but concise definitions of what a family is and how God designed the home to function. Foundational Scripture verses are given for each topic, along with family discussion questions and a suggested hymn and memory verse.

On this episode of the HindmanCast, Archivist Sarah Insalaco sits down with two AmeriCorps NCCC volunteers, Bradley Johnson and Mara Von Oesen, who were part of a team that spent several months in Hindman helping to restore our archive collection that was damaged during the July 2022 flood. Bradley and Mara discuss their time in Hindman and what they learned along with the important work that they did helping to ensure that our history remains intact and accessible for generations to come. 

Mini Retreat: Meditate with Me Integration class — Stability in Motion: Restoring Action to the Body — in the Live class a profound structural shift opened in the field, including a Reiki upgrade that moved through during the session. And since then many in the Inspiring You Patreon have messaged to tell them they also felt and experienced it. I felt called to share this publicly for everyone. Because of the intensity unfolding collectively right now, and because this class speaks directly to the moment we are living in, I wanted to offer this practice publicly so a wider circle can receive the support.This class is part of our February 2026 series, Living the Light Format in Function — a series devoted to coherence, where movement does not disrupt your structure and expression does not scatter your field. Each class stands fully on its own, and this episode can be used as a single-session practice or expanded into a mini-retreat by engaging all five meditation parts together.The teaching in this class carries universal resonance. This meditation opens a field of coherence so you can stay connected to yourself while life moves around you.During the meditation, you may here the word "Format" or "Light Format" Why the Guides use the word “Format”: Format is the harmonic architecture of Soul coherence made lived and structural. It is not a technique, but the stabilized field through which your Light expresses without distortion. Light in physical form. Format is the inner architecture that allows you to move, speak, and relate without leaving yourself.What this class supports:Staying rooted in your Light Format while in motion; integrating after visibility without collapse; breathing from structural rhythm rather than modulation; releasing the reflex to track, adjust, or perform; remaining coherent without withdrawing or bracing.This session reminds you that stability is not stillness — it is the resonance of your structure. You are safe because you remain with yourself.Five-Part Practice (included in the episode):• Part 1: Crystalline Format Field Entrainment — anchoring motion inside the Light Format.• Part 2: Output Integration — dissolving depletion linked to visibility.• Part 3: Nervous System Resonance — releasing post-action alertness.• Part 4: Tri-Wave Breath of Format — sealing motion from within rather than matching the external field.• Part 5: Soul Listening in Action — staying internally referenced while relating.You may listen to the entire practice sequentially as a mini-retreat, or choose one part that meets your field today. Either way, the session supports motion without distortion, expression without exit, and coherence that does not depend on recovery.—

In Romans 1, Paul exposes the root issue beneath sin: not just bad behavior, but dishonor. Humanity did not simply disobey — we exchanged. We traded the glory of the Creator for created things. And when God loses His rightful weight in our lives, something else always takes His place.In this message, Phil Martinez explores what it truly means to honor God. Biblically, honor carries the idea of weight — to treat God as significant, essential, and first. When we treat Him as light, optional, or secondary, our thinking becomes distorted and our hearts grow dark. But when we restore His rightful place, everything changes.This sermon is both a mirror and an invitation. Where has God become optional? What carries the most weight in your decisions — His Word, your feelings, culture, success, comfort? Honor begins in humility. It shows up in worship, obedience, generosity, suffering, and everyday life.God is not looking for perfect people — He is looking for surrendered hearts.Today is an opportunity to reverse the exchange. To give God back the weight He deserves. To honor Him not just with our lips, but with our lives.Passage: Romans 1:18–25

Restoring the Sound of Pure WorshipIn this episode, we dive into the call to restore worship back to its rightful center — the presence of Jesus. In a generation filled with noise, performance, and pressure to produce, God is raising a people who are returning to purity, consecration, and true ministry unto the Lord.This conversation explores what it means to carry a clean sound before heaven — a worship that is not driven by platform or preference, but by intimacy, surrender, and the fear of the Lord. We talk about the difference between performance and presence, why purity of heart matters more than perfection of sound, and how the Lord is restoring altar-centered worship in His Church.If you've been longing for deeper encounters, fresh fire in worship, or clarity on what God is doing in this hour, this episode will encourage you to realign your heart and rediscover the beauty of ministering to Him first.The sound is being restored.The altar is being rebuilt.And pure worship is rising again.Support the show

In this episode of American Potential, host David From sits down with Emily Seidel, CEO of Americans for Prosperity, live from Philadelphia as the America 250 celebrations begin. Together, they reflect on the founding principles that shaped the nation — self-governance, individual liberty, and the belief that our rights come from our Creator — and why those ideas are still essential 250 years later. As pride in America declines and more people feel the American Dream is out of reach, Emily explains how the One Small Step campaign is working to restore hope and personal agency. From grassroots activism to empowering citizens to take meaningful action in their communities, this conversation explores how everyday Americans can recommit to the values that made the country exceptional — and help shape the next 250 years of freedom.

National Geographic photographer Kiliii Yuyän returns to the Mongabay Newscast to share his experience creating his new book, Guardians of Life: Indigenous Knowledge, Indigenous Science, and Restoring the Planet from specialty publisher Braided River. This book documents the traditional ecological knowledge (TEK) of nine Indigenous communities worldwide, featuring contributions and essays from many members of these communities, along with Yüyan's own photography. TEK, Yüyan says, isn't exactly traditional so much as it is ecological knowledge that is place-based. While it draws on thousands of years of knowledge, it also innovates in society as we know it, and can offer social, cultural and ecological benefits that neoliberal economics does not. Yüyan highlights that some of the most significant environmental victories of the past few years, such as the removal of the Klamath River dams in the United States — the largest dam removal project ever — were led by Indigenous people. Yüyan's imagery captures the essence of the decades it took for Lisa Moorehead-Hillman, Leaf Hillman and others to advocate for their removal. "I think what the great power of the book is in a lot of ways is the power of photography … actually seeing it. That this is what it means when we're talking about what is shamanism, what does it mean when you remove a dam … and you see it in people's faces." Please take a minute to let us know what you think of our podcast, here. Mike DiGirolamo is the host & producer for the Mongabay Newscast based in Sydney. Find him on LinkedIn and Bluesky. Image Credit: Lisa Morehead-Hillman and Leif Hillman, both Karuk, celebrate the removal of the dams on the newly exposed reservoir floor in 2024.

Diane Keaton's first feature as a director wasn't a romantic comedy — it was an existential documentary about the afterlife. On this episode of She's All Over the Place, host Katie Chonacas sits down with producer Arnie Holland to discuss the 2026 HD remaster and re-release of Heaven, Diane Keaton's unconventional documentary exploring what people truly believe happens after death. Originally released to critical curiosity and now restored for modern audiences, Heaven blends interviews, film clips, and music to examine religion, Hollywood mythology, and humanity's fascination with paradise. The film features everyday people, spiritual thinkers, and public figures answering questions like: What does God look like? Is there a reward? Is there consciousness after death? The documentary includes a score by Academy Award-winning composer Howard Shore and a soundtrack featuring Lionel Richie, Sam Cooke, The Dream Academy, and more. Producer Arnie Holland explains how the film was made, why Keaton pursued the subject, and why the movie feels especially relevant in today's culture. We also discuss the restoration process, theatrical re-release, and the new limited-edition Blu-ray and digital release. Topics covered: • Diane Keaton as a first-time director • Hollywood and spirituality • Documentary filmmaking • Afterlife beliefs across cultures • Restoring classic films in HD • The business of film distribution • Music licensing and soundtrack selection Heaven releases February 17, 2026 on Blu-ray, VOD, and digital platforms.

In this episode, we visit St. Isidore's in Watkins, Colorado, just east of Denver where a rural plot of farmland became a beautiful Romanesque church. Fr. Paul Robinson walks us through the rich history of the priory, from its origins in a strip mall chapel to the donation of 18 acres and the building of one of the Society's most beautiful churches. Now, that same community is answering a new call: to restore the church's aging structure, to pave the lot after more than two decades of use, and to build a proper school so their children no longer have to study in the basement. With a multi-year capital campaign underway and incredible momentum already, the prospects are bright for St. Isidore's.

Many people are saying the same thing lately: “I'm overwhelmed by everything.”In this Think Thursday episode, Molly explores what overwhelm actually is from a neuroscience perspective. Is it just busyness? Or is something deeper happening in the brain?Drawing from research on the amygdala, stress hormones, working memory, and executive function, Molly explains how overwhelm is not about volume alone. It is about perceived overload and a loss of prioritization. When the brain detects too many competing demands and not enough resources, it shifts from organizing to alarming.This episode also revisits a recent WisdomWednesday quote about replacing “I'm overwhelmed” with “I need to decide what matters most and go slow.” Molly clarifies why that statement is directionally true but not neurologically instant. She explains how language influences prediction, prediction shapes physiology, and physiology drives behavior.What You'll LearnWhy overwhelm is a perception of overload, not simply busynessHow the amygdala flags cognitive threatWhat happens to the prefrontal cortex under stressWhy everything feels urgent when executive function is compromisedThe difference between descriptive and prescriptive thoughtsHow repeating “I'm overwhelmed” reinforces neural prediction loopsWhy prioritization restores cognitive flexibilityHow cognitive reappraisal shifts neural activity over timeKey Concepts ExplainedPerceived Overload Overwhelm occurs when the brain interprets demands as exceeding available resources.Amygdala Activation When ambiguity, uncertainty, and competing priorities rise, the amygdala signals threat, increasing stress hormones like cortisol and norepinephrine.Executive Function The prefrontal cortex is responsible for planning, sequencing, prioritizing, and organizing. Under stress, its efficiency decreases.Descriptive vs Prescriptive Thinking Some thoughts label experience. Others shape future experience. Repeating “I'm overwhelmed” reinforces prediction patterns that sustain the feeling.Cognitive Reappraisal Research shows that reinterpreting a situation increases prefrontal cortex activity and decreases amygdala activation over time.Why Language MattersWhen you repeatedly say “I'm overwhelmed,” your brain begins scanning for confirming evidence. Increased vigilance raises stress. Stress reduces clarity. Reduced clarity reinforces overwhelm.Replacing that statement with a prioritizing phrase does not instantly shut down the alarm system. However, it recruits executive function and begins shifting neural activity toward organization and task-based thinking.Language guides prediction. Prediction guides physiology. Physiology guides behavior.Practical ReframeInstead of:“I'm overwhelmed.”Try:What matters most today?What is the next smallest step?What can wait?This is not positive thinking. It is restoring organizing capacity.Overwhelm signals that prioritization has collapsed. Prioritization is a skill that can be strengthened.Behavior Change ConnectionPeople often abandon habits when they feel overwhelmed, not because they lack discipline, but because executive function is compromised.You cannot build new neural pathways from a chronically alarmed state.Restoring order supports follow-through. ★ Support this podcast ★

We are told that our personal health is our individual responsibility based on our own choices. Yet, the biological truth is that human health is dependent upon the health of nature's ecosystems and our social structures. Decisions that negatively affect these larger systems and eventually affect us are made without our consent as citizens and, often, without our knowledge. Dr. Rupa Marya, former Associate Professor of Medicine at UC San Francisco, and co-founder of the Do No Harm Coalition, says “social medicine” means dismantling harmful social structures that directly lead to poor health outcomes, and building new structures that promote health and healing.
