Start your day with a dose of positivity! Tune in to Morning Affirmations for an inspiring way to kick-start your day!

“ In order to think about grief, first you have to think about love and bonding, because that is what gets lost. That is what gets broken.”  Dr. Mary-Frances O'Connor Understanding why grief feels so physical, why someone still reaches for the phone to call someone who's gone, or why certain memories can trigger intense emotions years after a loss can provide valuable insight for those helping others who are experiencing grief or for those who want to know more about grief. And today, we're diving into the neuroscience behind grief. In this episode, Dr. Mary-Frances O'Connor joins Dr. Aimie to discuss how grief isn't just an emotional response but a complex learning process as our brains adapt to a fundamentally changed reality. She introduces the critical distinction between grief and grieving, highlighting how our attachment patterns influence our grief journey. Her fascinating research on yearning reveals that this powerful sensation activates the same brain regions involved with other basic survival needs, explaining why the feeling can be so intense and overwhelming  The conversation also goes into how avoidance and rumination can interfere with natural healing, and that the intensity and frequency of grief waves will change over time as part of the grieving process.   You'll learn: The brain regions that activate when you yearn for someone who has died Why yearning is more like hunger or thirst than addiction The difference between grief (response) and grieving (adaptation process) How rumination and avoidance can interfere with natural healing The importance of staying grounded and connected to the present  How to prepare your brain and support systems for future grief experiences The crucial differences between depression and grief, and why they require different approaches   Whether you're currently navigating grief, supporting someone who is, or simply preparing for inevitable losses, this episode will help you understand why healing isn't “getting over” a loss, but an ever evolving process that fundamentally changes our reality.   Connect with Dr. O'Connor: Website Related Podcasts: Episode 42: Unlocking The Role of Disguised Grief in Health  Episode 76: Navigating the Grief Journey: The Polyvagal Way To Become an Active Operator of Your Nervous System   Guides, Tools & Resources: The Essential Sequence - A free guide that shows you the difference between stress and trauma states of our nervous system.

In one of my favorite conversations, bestselling author David Epstein joins the podcast to explore how to find your path in life, the problem with 10,000 hours, and why generalists triumph in a specialized world. David and I discuss why sampling different paths before specializing tends to lead to more fulfillment. David explains why feeling "behind" is actually normal for successful people who take non-linear paths, and how "fit looks like grit" when you find something that genuinely connects with your strengths and interests. We then detail how to identify good fits, a practical process for getting good at almost anything, and what helps create a breakthrough moment. About our Guest: David Epstein is a bestselling author, science writer, and investigative reporter known for challenging conventional wisdom about peak performance. His books include Range: Why Generalists Triumph in a Specialized World and The Sports Gene. You can watch this episode on YouTube.

Send us a textOur emotional wounds dictate our lives whether we are aware of it or not. It is the emotional wounds that are holding all the pain and fear-based beliefs. We think that by running away from our feelings via compulsions, Rumination, reassurance seeking, avoidance, and distraction we will get relief however we increase these fear based feelings. This is a natural survival response but we can start shining a light on these feelings from a new perspective which is life-changing.These feelings are not scary monsters, they are in fact very scared vulnerable aspects of ourselves which is crying out for our attention, love and compassion.I invite you to start befriending your emotions and listen daily to self soothe and when triggered.Whether you deal with OCD, Generalised Anxiety, Daily Stress, this is a practise for you!Enjoy,LindaSupport the show

Self-awareness is a good thing…right? In this episode, Forrest and Dr. Rick Hanson explore how we can stop overthinking and break the self-awareness trap: when knowing ourselves becomes an obstacle to change. They discuss the difference between reflection and rumination, the pitfalls of being "an expert on yourself," and why overthinking is often an avoidance mechanism disguised as problem-solving. Dr. Rick shares practical strategies for managing attention, setting boundaries around decisions, and cultivating an experimental mindset. You can watch this episode on YouTube.

Does a part of you ever feel like just giving up? It's too much, it's too heavy, it's too complicated, it's too hard. Or has it ever felt like, "What's the point?"The truth is, we all have points in our lives when we feel overwhelmed. This can also show up in the, "Here I am again… I'm in the SAME SPOT. I always circle back to this.'"If you're single, perhaps it's: "Nothing's working in dating." If you're partnered, it could be: "I'm trying and trying, but nothing's working to get us reconnected."Or as Jason says, "In my relationship, it would be anytime that I would get activated into feeling like I'm not enough."Here we go into what's happening on a physiological level when this part is showing up for you -- the two poles. These are dorsal shutdown — disassociation/sleepy/collapsed/yawning; and sympathetic overdrive — hyper/activated/manic/wired/anger.We talk about how to recognize these states, and what to do it when you do. Hint: "Connection and movement are two of the most important things. And sometimes to shift our mindset, we have to shift our body first."---Work with usWant to go deeper than the podcast?

(https://evolutionary.men/apply/)---Memorable quotes from this episode:"Our whole system just shuts down, and we're frozen or disassociated."“What's the point of trying? What's the point of getting angry? What's the point of connecting with someone online? It's not going to change.”"It's a deep place of suffering when we don't feel like we have agency over our own life.""Rumination — our mind is racing but our body isn't moving.""The optimal place is in the middle: We're engaged, and we're relaxed.""One of the ways we get back to that relaxed state is through social connection.""One breath, one step."“If we can be with it, we can be free from it.”---Mentioned on this episode:Dear Men 196: Were you a child of emotional neglect?

Part of the trauma after infidelity is rumination. The endless mind movies reliving what you know and, worse, imagining what you don't. In this episode, listeners tell us how they dealt with the endless intrusive thoughts. What therapies worked, who helped, and how they diverted their attention elsewhere.

Forrest and Dr. Rick focus on one of life's most challenging but essential skills - letting go. Whether you're trying to break free from repetitive thoughts, move on from a relationship, or change an old pattern of behavior, this episode will help you learn how to release what no longer serves you.  They start by exploring why letting go is so difficult, the nature of the brain and how it gets in our way, and how to start opening up to a new way of being. They then discuss different practical approaches to letting go, how to work with the feeling of “giving up,” and staying on your own side when facing resistance.  You can watch this episode on YouTube. Key Topics: 0:00: Introduction 3:05: Rumination and the comfort of familiarity 7:00: Allowing for shifts in identity 14:25: An example of working with a pattern 29:40: Being on your own side when you feel resistance from others 34:45: Letting go vs. giving up, and orienting toward our own fulfillment 43:35: The destabilization phase, and learning about yourself 51:05: Recap I am now writing on Substack, check out my work there.  Support the Podcast: We're now on Patreon!

The VABBB is seeking participants both with and without neurological conditions. Your involvement can lead to important breakthroughs and support life-changing research. Visit www.research.va.gov/programs and click on VA Biorepository Brain Bank In this episode of PTSD and Beyond, we dive into how rumination and reactors—those moments when we feel stuck or overwhelmed—impact our mental health and how mindfulness can help us move through them. We also explore the importance of grounding, self-compassion, and the post-care phase. Key Topics: What is Rumination? Exploring the loop of repetitive thoughts, especially in relation to trauma, and how it activates the brain's default mode network (DMN). Understanding Reactors: Shifting from "triggers" to "reactors" to help create more space between us and our emotional responses. The Role of Self-Compassion: Practical ways to validate yourself when a reactor is activated, and how to use grounding exercises to regulate emotions. The Science Behind Grounding: Walking barefoot activates over 200,000 nerve endings in your feet, which helps calm the nervous system and reduce stress. Post-Care Phase: After a reactive experience, nurturing yourself is crucial for restoring balance and promoting long-term resilience. Mindfulness Exercise: We close with a guided mindfulness exercise designed to help us anchor in the present moment, validate ourselves, and practice self-compassion, especially when feeling overwhelmed by rumination or reactors. Through self-awareness and preparation, we can recognize that we're not only there for ourselves but also there for one another. By staying connected and mindful, we strengthen our ability to navigate challenges together. And remember, we're better together, we're stronger together, and take what resonates and GO BEYOND!

In this Think Thursday episode, we're diving deep into the concept of rumination—the exhausting cycle of repetitive, negative thinking. Molly breaks down why our beautiful, brilliant human brains get stuck in this mental quicksand and how it can sabotage our progress, especially when trying to change habits like drinking. More importantly, you'll learn science-backed strategies to interrupt this cycle and start moving forward Key Topics Covered:What is Rumination? Understanding how repetitive negative thinking traps us in unproductive loops.Why Do We Ruminate? Exploring how our brains are wired for survival and how modern-day emotional threats trigger overthinking.The Impact of Rumination: How chronic rumination fuels anxiety, depression, and stress, keeping us stuck in habits that don't serve us.Five Science-Backed Strategies to Stop Rumination:Switch from "Why" to "How": Move from self-criticism to solution-focused thinking.Purposeful Distraction: Engage your mind and body in meaningful activities to break negative loops.Practice Self-Compassion: Speak to yourself kindly and interrupt self-criticism.Set a Problem-Solving Time Limit: Contain overthinking with intentional time boundaries.Name It to Tame It: Label your thoughts to create distance and diminish their power.Actionable Challenge:This week, when you catch yourself spiraling into overthinking, visualize a big red stop sign. Pause, breathe, and ask yourself: What kind of thought is this? Then label it without judgment. This simple act is the first step toward lasting change.Resources Mentioned:

Does your daughter get overwhelmed by overthinking and overanalyzing everyone and everything in her life? If you have a middle or high schooler living under your roof, the answer is probably yes. In this podcast, Dr. Jordan describes a simple tool to help her to catch herself when ruminating herself into anxiety and switch it.Scenario: girl Ellie sees photo of her 2 best friends at a sleepover and she wasn't invited; this starts a cascade of thoughts that get more negative and anxiety-provoking: why didn't they invite me? Did I do something wrong? Are they mad at me? Are they getting closer and thus am I losing them as friends? Who will I sit with at lunch on Monday? Am I going to have to sit alone like the weird kids?Girls always ruminate worst case, not best case. Rumination is one of the most common causes of anxiety and panic attacks in the girls that I counsel.Instead of getting caught up in the negative spiral of “what if”, your daughter can learn to switch it to:What is? i.e. what is the truth? I didn't do anything so it doesn't have to mean anything unless I let itWhat else? What else could it mean? There are lots of possible explanations that don't involve me in a negative way: maybe her mom said could only have 2 friends over after her volleyball game and they are on the same team…The worst-case rumination explanations are almost never true. And girls can check out the truth by asking her friends about why she wasn't invited so that she can get out of her head and hear the truth.Summary: help your daughter learn to become aware of when she's starting to ruminate & Shift from “What if” to “What is the truth” and “What else could it mean?”Join Our Community:https://www.facebook.com/DrTimJordanhttps://www.instagram.com/drtimjordan/https://www.linkedin.com/in/tim-jordan-md-79799120b/

Pastor Dave's sermon at Road to Life Church focused on the importance of knowing the Scriptures and the power of God. He discussed the Sadducees, who questioned Jesus about resurrection with misunderstanding and sarcasm, highlighting that many people attend church without truly believing or understanding God's word and power. The pastor emphasized that our actions reflect our beliefs and that knowing the Bible intimately can lead to transformative power in our lives. Ultimately, he encouraged the congregation to engage with Scripture actively, to seek God's truth and power, and to not let their lives be dictated by misunderstanding or skepticism.Matthew 22:23-29 23 The same day the Sadducees, who say there is no resurrection, came to Him and asked Him, 24 saying: “Teacher, Moses said that if a man dies, having no children, his brother shall marry his wife and raise up offspring for his brother. 25 Now there were with us seven brothers. The first died after he had married, and having no offspring, left his wife to his brother. 26 Likewise the second also, and the third, even to the seventh. 27 Last of all the woman died also. 28 Therefore, in the resurrection, whose wife of the seven will she be? For they all had her.” 29 Jesus answered and said to them, “You are [a]mistaken, not knowing the Scriptures nor the power of God.

This Real Science Exchange podcast episode was recorded during a webinar from Balchem's Real Science Lecture Series. You can find it at balchem.com/realscience.Feeding behavior of dairy cows is inherently tied to their dry matter intake (DMI) which is tied to milk production. If we want to change a cow's DMI, it must be mediated by changing her feeding behavior. (00:23)In a multi-variable analysis, Dr. DeVries found that DMI was most associated with feeding time and meal frequency. It's important to allow the cow to maximize the amount of time she can spend at the bunk eating, as well as the number of times she can get to the bunk each day. In one study, about 30% of the variability in milk fat content in cows on the same diet was explained by their meal frequency, where cows who had more meals per day had higher milk fat. Dr. DeVries also talks about the impacts of feeding behavior on cow efficiency and rumen dynamics. (2:13)As soon as a cow sorts the TMR put in front of her, she consumes a diet that's variable in composition to what we expect. Cows who sorted against long feed particles had lower milk fat and milk protein concentrations. In another study, Dr. DeVries retrospectively analyzed cows with a low vs high risk of ruminal acidosis. Cows in both groups had similar DMI but a tendency for high-risk cows to have lower milk yield and numerically lower milk fat. Combining these resulted in significantly lower fat-corrected milk for the high-risk cows. Given that the diets and DMI were similar, the difference was attributed to sorting, which can have quite negative impacts on individual and herd-level production. (10:00)Cows spend nearly twice as much time ruminating as they do eating. Rumination reduces feed particle size and increases surface area, leading to increased rates of digestion and feed passage. In a recent study, Dr. DeVries' group calculated the probability that cows were ruminating while lying down using automated monitoring data from previous experiments. Cows with a higher probability of ruminating while lying down had higher DMI, milk fat, and milk protein than cows who ruminated while standing. This highlights that cows need not only time to ruminate but also space for sufficient rest. (16:44)Diets and diet composition should be formulated to encourage frequent meals, discourage sorting, and stimulate rumination. Forage management factors including forage quality, forage quantity, forage type (dry vs ensiled), and particle size all play important roles. In a study with fresh cows, Dr. DeVries' lab fed two different particle sizes of straw: 5-8 cm vs 2-3 cm in length. While DMI was the same over the first 28 days of lactation, cows fed the long straw spent more time with rumen pH below 5.8 because they were sorting against the straw. This also resulted in a yield difference, as the short straw-fed cows produced about 165 pounds more milk over the first 28 days compared to the long straw group. Dr. DeVries also comments on the use of feed additives on rumen stability and feeding behavior (22:54)More frequent feed delivery should generate more consistent consumption and better feeding behavior, and improve rumen health and milk component concentration. Shifting feed delivery away from return from milking, while still ensuring cows have abundant feed available, results in more consistent eating patterns. Dr. DeVries emphasizes that we push up feed to make sure it's present at the bunk, not to stimulate cows to eat. We want to make sure that eating behavior is driven by the cow: when she's hungry and goes to the bunk, we need to make sure feed is there. (30:02)Dr. DeVries indicates we want to minimize the time cows are without feed completely. An empty bunk overnight plus a little overcrowding resulted in negative impacts on rumen health, including more acidosis and reduced fiber digestibility. Increased competition in overcrowding scenarios results in cows having larger meals, eating faster, and likely having a larger negative ruminal impact. In another study, every four inches of increased bunk space was associated with about 0.06% greater milk fat. Herds with high de novo fat synthesis were 10 times more likely to have at least 18 inches of bunk space per cow.  (40:04)In closing, Dr. DeVries' biggest takeaway is that how cows eat is just as important as the nutritional composition of the feed in ensuring cow health, efficiency, and production. Collectively, with good quality feed and good feeding management, we can gain optimal performance from those diets. Dr. DeVries ends by taking questions from the webinar audience.

In this episode, we explore the human mood system and the origin of depression.  My guest is Dr. Jonathan Rottenberg, Professor of Psychology and Director of the Better Outcomes Laboratory at Cornell University. His work examines long-term functioning and well-being after depression and related conditions, with a particular focus on explaining why some people achieve good outcomes. He received his BA from Harvard University, an MA in History from Johns Hopkins University, and his PhD in Psychology from Stanford University. Dr. Rottenberg's research has been covered in popular outlets such as the New York Times, The Washington Post, and the Wall Street Journal. He has authored two books: The Depths: The Evolutionary Origins of the Depression Epidemic (Basic Books) and Depression: What Everyone Needs to Know (Oxford). His most recent digital outreach project is Ever After, a video series about life after depression. Here are some highlights from our conversation: Jonathan's own experience with depression and how it shaped his research and mission The evolutionary origins of the mood  Mood as a system The parallels between human and animal depression Depression's survival strategy and modern stressors Distinctions between ordinary sadness and depression Why depression feels permanent—and why it isn't Rumination and how it wires the brain for recurring episodes The adaptability and resilience of the mood system How mindfulness can disrupt depressive thought loops Why some achieve 'better outcomes' after struggling with their mental health than others  I think this episode will help many of you see depression and overall negative moods as part of a broader human experience rather than a personal failing. It's a must-listen for anyone interested in a deeper understanding of human emotion and the complex relationship between body, mood, and environment.  Enjoy!

Evidence from the guy who pioneered the science.James Pennebaker is Professor Emeritus of Psychology at the University of Texas at Austin. He is known for his early research on expressive writing and health. More recently, he has pioneered ways to study people's personalities and behaviors through the analysis of their language use. His text analysis program LIWC is used across disciplines. Author of over 300 scientific articles and 8 books, his research has affected our understanding and treatment of mental and physical health of people dealing with upheavals in their lives.In this episode we talk about:The specific form of journaling, called expressive writing or therapeutic journaling, that he invented and studied. Other kinds of journaling such as to-do lists and gratitude lists. Why writing things down helps shift our perspective on our stress or trauma. How that can lead to a cascade of benefits, from improved sleep to improved working memoryAnd why Pennebaker, who's a very laid-back dude, is so laid-back about how often we need to journal in order to derive its benefitsDump It Here journal is available now. https://shop.danharris.com/ Sign up for Dan's weekly newsletter hereFollow Dan on social: Instagram, TikTokTen Percent Happier online bookstoreSubscribe to our YouTube ChannelOur favorite playlists on: Anxiety, Sleep, Relationships, Most Popular EpisodesFull Shownotes: https://www.tenpercent.com/tph/podcast-episode/pennebaker-860See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In this episode, my guest is Dr. Charan Ranganath, Ph.D., professor of psychology and neuroscience at the University of California, Davis, and a world expert on the neuroscience of memory. We discuss how memory works, what causes diseases of dementia like Alzheimer's, and science-based strategies to reduce age-related cognitive decline. We also cover the essential role of curiosity and the dopamine-curiosity link that can assist memory formation and neuroplasticity. We then discuss challenges with attention and focus, and how to overcome them, as well as how to manage task-switching and create home and work environments more conducive to cognitive health and longevity. Additionally, we explore the emotional aspect of memories, tools for overcoming rumination, and strategies for reframing past negative experiences. This episode will be of interest to anyone seeking to improve and maintain their cognitive health, focus, and memory across their lifespan, as well as for those struggling with ADHD.
