#FRANCE: PLUM TREES RIPENING. SIMON CONSTABLE

Welcome to this soul-stirring episode of The Happy Mama Movement Podcast. Today, I'm joined by Jayde Kirchert — mother, writer, director, and Artistic Director of Citizen Theatre. Jayde's latest work Ripening explores the complex terrain of motherhood and birth through a bold, theatrical lens — and in this deeply honest conversation, she shares her own story of labour, loss, transformation, and creative awakening.We discuss:The Birth They Don't Tell You AboutWhy honest preparation matters more than fear — and how education, mindset, and advocacy shaped Jayde's birth experience.Labour as Initiation: Summoning the AncestorsJayde shares the powerful moment she reached beyond herself — into something sacred and ancestral — to bring her son into the world.Creative Rebirth: Turning Story into StageHow her personal journey became the foundation for Ripening, and how theatre can reframe motherhood's truths for a wider audience.Breaking the Medical SpellThe intergenerational ripple of over-medicalised birth, and what happens when women begin to trust their bodies again.From Girl to Guardian: The Making of a Mother ArchetypeHow birth shaped Jayde's spiritual evolution — and how it helped her locate the deep, unwavering strength she brings to both mothering and making art.This episode is a love letter to informed birth, artistic courage, and the sacred role of mothers as culture-shapers. May it inspire you to remember your own power and share your story — because in the sharing, we begin to shift the collective. If this conversation moved you, please pass it on. Every mother deserves to feel seen.ABOUT JAYDE KIRCHERT:Writer. Director. Artistic Visionary.

Interview by Kris PetersQueensland punk upstarts Fake News are having a stellar 2025. Starting the year with a national opening slot for Pennywise and Millencolin, the lovable punksters have just released their new album Dead Set, abody of work which sees Fake News showcase a different, yet still familiar, side to their musical psyche.The band are ready to take the next step forward with Dead Set. Whilst staying true to their 90s Skate punk sound, Fake News have evolved and raised the bar on the album. Boasting a high-energy and action packed live show, the release of Dead Set is a staunch reminder that Fake News are here to stay and create a legacy that stretches beyond their own backyard.HEAVY sat down earlier today for a chat with guitarist Darren Crowe to find out more, starting by asking how the early reception to the album has been."It's been good," he smiled. "It's moving at a steady pace in the streamage. It seems to be doing all the right things and moving in the right direction. There are a few different songs in there, which might have lost a few listeners, but there's a few different songs in there that might have gained a few listeners as well. We've stayed true to who we are, and we've evolved, and we feel like we've got a very now sound with what we've done on this album. A lot of these songs were written seven years ago when the band started, and we just knew that we wanted to get them right. We didn't have the right people for the job so we kind of went back and redid them, and there are riffs there I've had lying around for like 15 plus years, so it's nice to finally get them released. People don't understand how much work goes into a riff in a song sometimes. When you hear it on release day, itwas probably recorded two or three years prior, and then by the time it comes out and stuff… there's just a lot of work that goes on behind the scenes. But it's nice to have it out."In the full interview, Darren discussed Fake News' evolution and the challenges faced during production, emphasizing the importance of their punk roots while incorporating new elements. He highlighted the album's diverse tracks and encouraged fans to engage deeply with the music. We also discussed the unique approach to covering songs, noting the significance of drums in creating a fresh sound. We spoke about Fake News signing with Thousand Island Records, enabling international distribution and vinyl production. Darren expressed excitement for their upcoming launch show at Sol Bar and mentioned plans for more, as yet unannounced, touring this year plus more.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/heavy-music-interviews--2687660/support.

Water, Flaxseeds, Vinegar, Saffron..Can You Really Make Olive Oil Without Olives?

"‘I sell unpasteurized, unfiltered olive oil, no modifications in the cellar.” But is this really the right approach to selling extra virgin olive oil online?"

Is it better to keep the leaves during the milling process, even adding more if necessary, or should the olives enter the mill completely leaf-free? What is the correct school of thought: leaf or no leaf?

Should olives be piled up to dry, like our grandparents did, or sent straight to the mill in a refrigerated van?

Is it possible to precisely determine the right time to harvest olives and make oil? Why is it wrong to harvest olives when they change color?

Published studies, including 2 large network meta-analyses, support the safety and efficacy of misoprostol (PG E1) when used for cervical ripening and labor induction. Based on cumulative data, misoprostol administered vaginally at doses of 50 μg has the highest probability of achieving vaginal delivery within 24 hours. Prostaglandin E2 also has proven efficacy. Plus, we are all aware of the safety and efficacy of mechanical methods of cervical ripening; yes…we know that these options may be used either individually or concomitantly. But what about sequential use? Can cervical balloon be used after misoprostol? Or should it be the other way around? Is there a “best way” to do sequential cervical ripening? This episode topic comes from one of our podcast family members. It's a really good clinical question, and we will dive into the data in this episode. And STAY TUNED IN UNTIL THE END for the real-world clinical implications of the data.

In the latest episode of the Veg Grower Podcast, host Richard delves into the intricacies of tomatoes ripening, shares an innovative upcycling project, and discusses the benefits of a new compost tumbler on his allotment. Additionally, Scott brings a delightful culinary twist with a recipe for lemon and elderflower posset with red gooseberry compote. Understanding and Solving Tomato Ripening Issues The Science Behind Tomato Ripening Richard begins by addressing a common issue many gardeners face: tomatoes not ripening as expected. He explains that the ripening process is influenced by the plant hormone ethylene, which is crucial for the development of the fruit's colour and flavour. Environmental factors such as temperature and sunlight play a significant role in ethylene production. Factors Affecting Ripening Temperature:** Tomatoes require a consistent temperature range of 21-24°C for optimal ripening. Temperatures above 85°F (29°C) or below 50°F (10°C) can hinder the process.Sunlight:** Adequate sunlight is essential for photosynthesis, which in turn supports the ripening process. Ensure your tomato plants receive at least 6-8 hours of direct sunlight daily. Practical Solutions Richard offers several practical solutions to encourage tomato ripening: Remove Lower Leaves:** By removing the lower leaves of the tomato plant, you can improve air circulation and reduce the risk of disease, which can indirectly support ripening.Use Ethylene-Emitting Fruits:** Placing bananas near your tomato plants can help. Bananas emit ethylene gas, which can accelerate the ripening process.Prune and Pinch:** Regularly prune and pinch off suckers (the small shoots that grow between the stem and branches) to direct the plant's energy towards fruit development. Upcycling Project: Turning Tomato Sauce Tins into Plant Pots The Benefits of Upcycling Richard introduces an upcycling project where he repurposes large tins of tomato sauce as plant pots. Upcycling not only reduces waste but also provides a cost-effective solution for gardening. Step-by-Step Guide Prepare the Tins: Clean the tins thoroughly and remove any labels.Drill Drainage Holes: Use a drill to create several drainage holes at the bottom of each tin to prevent waterlogging.Add Perlite and Compost: Fill the tins with a mixture of perlite and compost to ensure good drainage and nutrient availability.Planting: Richard chose to plant ginger in his upcycled pots, but you can experiment with various plants based on your preference. Encouraging Creativity Richard emphasizes the importance of creativity in gardening. Upcycling projects like this not only benefit the environment but also add a unique touch to your garden. Consider using other discarded items such as old buckets, tires, or even broken furniture to create functional and aesthetically pleasing garden features. Efficient Composting with a New Tumbler Advantages of a Compost Tumbler Richard shares his excitement about a new compost tumbler he received for his allotment. Compost tumblers offer several advantages over traditional compost bins: Faster Composting:** The tumbling action aerates the compost, speeding up the decomposition process.Ease of Use:** Tumblers are easier to turn and manage, making them ideal for gardeners with limited physical strength.Pest Control:** Enclosed tumblers reduce the risk of pests such as rodents and insects. Tips for Effective Composting Balance Green and Brown Materials:** Ensure a good mix of green (nitrogen-rich) and brown (carbon-rich) materials. Green materials include kitchen scraps and grass clippings, while brown materials include leaves and cardboard.Maintain Moisture Levels:** The compost should be as moist as a wrung-out sponge. Add water if it's too dry or dry materials if it's too wet.Regular Turning:** Turn the compost regularly to aerate it and speed up the decomposition process.

In this episode, we talk about our (very) human need to have healing move quickly… and how any person who has suffered and made a lot of progress can tell you that it takes patience and time. We'll talk about how to hold realistic expectations for any “quick-fix” approaches you may try and the dangers of a quick-fix mindset. I'll also give you some great ways we can all work to cultivate that necessary patience!You will learn:// Why it's important to not give up hope if our old patterns recur// The dangers of a quick-fix mindset (they're sneakier than you think)// Common misunderstandings about the speed at which psychedelic-assisted therapy and other therapeutic approaches can work// Why advanced methods of therapy or psychedelic substances alone won't make the difference// How integration needs to happen beyond a few online sessions of group sharing// Why true lasting progress requires time and patience (and often, the help of a skilled professional or wise mentor)// How to cultivate patience on the pathResources:// Episode 63: Being Human Is Hard - The First Noble Truth// Episode 107: Equanimity in Everyday Life// Episode 161: Healing vs Curing// Episode 209: Ripening and the Inevitability of Our Awakening// I'd love to hear from you!

In this week's episode, we talk about why we're often left feeling impatient, judging that we aren't doing “enough” on our spiritual path; needing to do things better; more quickly; more intensely. It can be hard to let go of a striving mentality so that we can actually move at the pace we're meant to. But the reality is that with our practice, we will naturally ripen. Our awakening is INEVITABLE. You will learn:// Why your awakening is inevitable (isn't that great news?!)// The downside of impatience and striving for a quick-fix approach// How to stop grasping for growth on our spiritual path and allow it to naturally “ripen”// The importance of being led by trust vs control// Signs we're trying to force our awakening instead of letting it take the time it needs// The Four Dharma Seals Resources:// Episode 126: How to Know if You're Making Spiritual Progress// Episode 204: What if This Is as Good as it Gets.// Episode 208: The Sit Spot Practice - When It's Hard to Meditate// I'd love to hear from you!

God is an experience-- not something you  have to force, just something you have to feel, and not stop feeling, no matter what else  you feel, forever. I Love you, Nik nikki@curlynikki.com p.s.

That is the hardest part and that is what you are responsible for. Once you take that step let everything do what it naturally does and the rest will follow. Don't go with the flow. Be the flow. " -Shams Tabrizi "That one thing is everything. Your body is God.  Your breath is God.  Your thoughts are God.  The good is God.  The bad is God. There is nothing other than that one thing.... then the duality vanishes. You and I vanish... that's Samadhi." -Sri Sri Ravi Shankar "Where God guides, He provides" (Isaiah 58:11) -via IG @SheRises "Rahme is an active force transforming the world around us. When we experience the state to which this Beatitude points, our rebirth allows those whom we love to freely rebirth themselves as well. Ripening in a healthy way are those who radiate womb-like love from the deepest place inside. They shall be reborn within Love's creative stream." -The Aramaic Jesus, Neil Douglas Klotz "For my ally is the Force, and a powerful ally it is."  - Yoda "Close your eyes. Feel it. The light...it's always been there. It will guide you."  -Maz Kanata "If you're feeling negative emotion, it means you're telling yourself a lie." Abraham Hicks "See I am all in you, and all for you." -Luisa Piccarreta

The tears you cry are not because you're lost, they're because you're found. You are found in Him. Love sees you, and you cry when you look away. You cry when your mind tells you that Love is not (t)Here. You cry when you see and hear things that aren't truly (t)Here. But when you're fully Here, like you are right now, you find Him, again. And you hear It.   I Love you, Nik nikki@curlynikki.com p.s. I shared this on the forum a few days ago-- "What am I up to? Oh nothing, just reading and randomly came upon the Aramaic (and Arabic) word ‘rahm' pronounced Raam (our mantra) that means ‘womb'. In Aramaic it's root means ‘mercy and love from our inner womb', or ‘love that births rays from the deepest place within us'… Ra= a fresh ray of light Am= from the Mother Chant and be Mary

Welcome to episode 64 of The Way Out Is In: The Zen Art of Living, a podcast series mirroring Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh's deep teachings of Buddhist philosophy: a simple yet profound methodology for dealing with our suffering, and for creating more happiness and joy in our lives. This episode is the first to be recorded live in front of an audience, in the Still Water Meditation Hall of Plum Village, France, during a retreat, rather than in Thay's Sitting Still hut. Together, Zen Buddhist monk Brother Phap Huu and leadership coach/journalist Jo Confino explore the Buddhist concept of ripening, or the Fourth Dharma Seal of Plum Village: the understanding that the care, love, attention, and commitment we put into what’s important in life take time to ripen, and that we shouldn’t expect instant results. Brother Phap Huu starts off by introducing the first Three Dharma Seals and why Thay created them, before digging deeper into the Fourth Dharma Seal, the main theme of this episode; the process of ripening; the life journey of the practice; and much more. Jo brings examples of lifelong journeys of forgiveness, and explores trust versus control, dharma rain, and more.And: how can we all apply this practice of ripening to our own lives? The episode ends with a short meditation guided by Brother Phap Huu.

And the present moment embraces the past as well as creating the future.” “If we don’t have darkness, the light won’t have a chance to appear.” “It is impossible to physically go back to the past, but I can bring the past into the here and now, and heal it by being right here, right now. By this present moment, I am creating a new path.” “The world is created by our mind.” “The insight of ripening allows us to understand that the path of practice is a wonderful journey, and that it takes time and space for things to mature, for things to transform, for things to heal. When we hear about ripening, we may think of a tree – say, an orange tree. It takes time for the seed to be planted. For the roots to deepen. For the tree and its leaves and flowers to grow. Even when the fruit appears, it takes time to ripen. And so our practice can be viewed as a journey of ripening.” “Each thing we say, each thing we think, each thing we do, ripples out. I love that image of a pond or a big lake where you throw in a stone and see the ripples spread in every direction. And even when you can’t really see them, they’re still there in a subtle way, stretching out further and further.” “The learning journey is endless.” “If you know how to suffer, you suffer less.” “If we take away the need for the outcome and are instead just present for people, then life can show up fully.” “The Buddha said that the dharma is like fine-tuning an instrument for our path. If we are too intense, too rigid, too extreme, we won’t go the distance. The string might snap because there’s too much effort, there’s too much intensity. But if we’re too lazy, and are just daydreaming about what can be, then the string is loose and doesn’t play the the sound that’s needed.”

Essential insights into the discernment of an accurate path, guide, methodology of purification of the doors of perception, and subtle preparation for service in one's body of light—crowned by final graduation from the wisdom school of life—are offered in this outstanding interchange of ideas and energies: A conversation that can bring about a sublime conversion. This is a clip taken from a recent conversation between Shunyamurti and Ryan McCormick, host of the Outer Limits of Inner Truth podcast.
