Last week my minimalism journey was catapulted onto a completely different level. On Wednesday I had a stressful, transformative and at the same time beautifully liberating evening where Lionel killed everything and everybody around him with his overflowing energy. He was crushing the whole setting like the whirlwind he is. And where it would have been easy to blame him for the mess he created I was able to look deeper and realize that he - once again - shows me how the artificial settings that were birthed out of our civilized minds are just not in alignment. Neither for him, nor for me. Actually not for anybody. But most people don't realize that. So over the upcoming days I rented out my house, sold many of my belongings and moved into a tent in the middle of nowhere. A true paradise where Lionel is able to safely roam around and explore the natural environment - without any danger of cars or things that he might break. A true yes space, as Montessori would call it. The minute I arrived at my new (temporary) home I realized on a deeper level how little we need. Possessions, comfort, toys - these things are so overrated. They become so meaningless when we replace them with the things we actually need: 2 hour long walks through pristine nature, fresh crisp air, cuddles under the blanket on a cool rainy evening. So todays podcast episode is a love letter to the purity of life that we are able to experience when we let go of all the unnecessary stuff. Everything you own, owns you in return. That's the reason why monks give up all their belongings in order to not be distracted from what matters most to them - their spiritual ascension. Thank you Lionel for always pushing me further in the direction of truth. You demand that from me. And as difficult as that may be sometimes, I have so much gratitude for your pure soul showing me the path. And I sense that all this may just be the beginning… ALIGN - your full system life force upgrade: https://robertgladitz.my.canva.site/align Join my private Telegram channel: https://t.me/truththebot My Instagram: http://instagram.com/robertgladitz/ The continuum concept - Jean Liedloff: https://amzn.to/48nt7Vw How to raise a wild child - Scott Sampson: https://amzn.to/469AePc Live to 100 - The secrets of the blue zones (Netflix Documentary): https://www.netflix.com/search?q=live%20to%20200&jbv=81214929 --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/robertgladitz/message

“The internet today is just a teenager. It's a messed-up teenager that doesn't know what it's doing, throwing things out, pissing people off”- Scott Sampson CEO of Fiber Fast Homes   Since COVID, our collective home internet use has skyrocketed with work-from-home, homeschooling, and video streaming.    Scott Sampson, CEO of Fiber Fast Homes in Jacksonville, Florida, has partnered with builders to ensure new homes are fitted with the fastest internet available, cutting out lag and frustration.   Now they connect fiber cables directly to the home, instead of using a neighborhood cable.

Fiber is a great way to add value to a home, and to be part of the future. Our world is only going to become more digital, and we'll need the bandwidth to support it.   Topics discussed in this episode: Scott's progression in his communications and internet services career How COVID changed internet infrastructure How technology advancements are changing the internet The importance of GOOD customer service The unlikely symbiotic relationship between builder and internet provider How fiber cables are installed during building Home fiber vs neighborhood fiber  The future of the internet and why builders should pay attention   Follow this https://www.fiberfasthomes.com/ (link) to learn more about Fiber Fast Homes!    To hear more Construction Disruption episodes you can visit us on https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/construction-disruption/id1585213239 (iTunes) or https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLMw9xVe_yEaU927JaM-q8-iwdPl4wsZzf (Youtube).   This podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Podtrac - https://analytics.podtrac.com/privacy-policy-gdrp Chartable - https://chartable.com/privacy

Barn tilbringer for mye tid inn foran en skjerm. Naturen har enorme helsegevinster for barns psykiske status, men hvordan få de ut i friluft?Jeg har lest en bok som heter «How to Raise a Wild Child - The Art and Science of Falling in Love With Nature» av Scott D. Sampson. Det er en bok som anerkjenner at både voksne og barn er klistret til en skjerm store deler av døgnet, hva dette gjør med oss og ikke minst den helsemessige gevinsten ved å komme seg ut i naturen.Jeg husker at foreldrene mine sa at jeg ble firkantet i øynene av å se for mye på TV. I dag tilbringer mange barn det meste av sin fritid foran en skjerm, men så vidt jeg kan se, har de ikke firkantede øyne. Men det er ikke formen på øynene som bekymrer meg mest. Det er den manglende interessen for omgivelsene som totalt forsvinner når nettbrettet har fortøyd barnets oppmerksomhet til ett eller annet fortryllende spill. Jeg er over 40 år og jeg var mer ute når jeg var barn. Er det egentlig viktig for barn å være ute, eller er det bara 40-åringens nostalgiske tilbøyeligheter som snakker?Forskning viser at det ikke bare er nostalgi. Naturen er avgjørende for barns fysiske og psykiske utvikling, og boka til Scott Sampson forklarer oss hvorfor.I denne introduksjonen til dagens episode, basert på boka «How to raise a wild child», skal du blant annet få vite følgende:Hvorfor trenger barn en hybrid hjerne?Hvorfor er pinner så godt egnet som leketøyHvordan kan barnehager som er mye ute i naturen forbedre barnas matematiske evner?Hør mer på Patreon.com/sinnsynDet siste segmentet i denne episoden var kun et kort utdrag fra en lengre refleksjonsrunde omkring naturens påvirkning på menneskers fysiske og psykiske helse.

Jamie and her friend recently came up with a plan to send their kids on a trip to the city on their own via the bus. To some parents, the idea of their teenage kids hopping on public transportation and jetting from the suburbs to the thick of downtown can be frightening, but Jamie wants to make sure Pascal and his friends develop the curiosity necessary to explore and learn as they get older and become more independent. She was also inspired by paleontologist Scott Sampson's TEDx talk on the importance of raising children who are fascinated by the natural world and free to explore it at their own pace. In this episode, Jamie leads you through Scott's TEDx talk, reveals how well-intentioned parental instincts can get in the way of your child's sense of discovery, and explains how you can more effectively foster your child's wonder.   The Finer Details of This Episode: Why we need to engineer scenarios that expose our kids to the world and allow them to find their own way. How adults, specifically parents, can actually harm our children's sense of wonder for the natural world. Starting off your children's adventures with a simple walk around the block. Why being a good teacher to your child can mean backing off a little and ditching the “teacher voice.” Don't “quantify” your kid's nature discoveries—just let them geek out for a bit and enjoy them for themselves! Resist the urge to say “no” and let your children get their hands dirty so they can actually engage with their environment. Parents: don't let your completionist tendencies get in the way of what your kids find interesting about nature. Instead of falling into the “technology sucks” trap, let's figure out ways to more constructively integrate tech into our kids' explorations.   Quotes: “There's no magical age where a kid just knows how to do things.” “We can't let our feelings get in the way of our kids' growth.” “We need to collectively shut up a whole lot more than we do.” “Don't kill the ‘whoa'!” “Let go of the idea that you need to fill your kid with information.”   Links: Scott Sampson: “How to Raise a Wild Child” - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mn4ve9fLsuA Steve Spangler Science - https://www.stevespanglerscience.com/ Jamie's homepage - http://www.jamieglowacki.com/    Oh Crap!

This episode features a conversation on The Passion of Animals with paleontologist and science communicator, Scott Sampson. Dr. Sampson is currently the President and CEO of Science World in Vancouver. Sampson is notable for his work on carnivorous theropod dinosaurs and his extensive research into the Late Cretaceous Period, particularly in Madagascar. Our host is Mary Evelyn Tucker, co-author of Journey of the Universe and professor at Yale University.In this conversation, Scott tells the compelling story of Earth’s fossil record. Touching on topics ranging from the ancient ecosystems of dinosaurs to the co-evolution of the human with other species, this interview highlights the importance of understanding mass extinctions. We hope you enjoy the Journey!--- What is our place in the 14-billion-year history of the universe?What roles do we play in Earth's history?How do we connect with the intricate web of life?This podcast series is part of a larger project called Journey of the Universe that invites us to reflect on these questions. It consists of a film, a book, a series of conversations, and online classes. The creators of the Journey project imagine that by knowing more about the universe and Earth we will also know more about ourselves. This may give us grounds for navigating our own journey in challenging times. How did we come to be part of this universe story? How do we belong and how can we participate in its future flourishing? This series is a gateway into exploring these questions. In these podcasts of the Journey of the Universe Conversations we will meet scientists and historians, environmentalists and teachers, gardeners and urban planners. All of them are reflecting on how we can be more fully alive in this context of participating in a universe story. Each podcast will have a section of the Journey of the Universe film narrated by Brian Thomas Swimme followed by a conversation hosted by Mary Evelyn Tucker.Connect deeply with these materials and more via the Journey of the Universe: A Story for Our Times Specialization, a series of Massive Online Open Courses hosted by Coursera and created by Yale.To receive up to date announcements on new podcasts and Journey community offerings, subscribe to our newsletter.

If you’ve been following the show for a while now, you’ll know that my daughter and I LOVE to spend time outside.  I looked at the research on the interview with Dr. Scott Sampson on his book How to Raise a Wild Child (https://yourparentingmojo.com/wildchild/) , so I am already convinced of its benefits for young children. So doesn’t it go without saying that these benefits will continue for older children, and that if we allowed school-aged children to spend more time outside then all kinds of improved learning outcomes would follow? When I started digging into the research I was shocked by what I found.  Studies employing poor-quality methodology abound.  I’m not sure a control group exists in the whole lot of them.  And “results” are measured in terms of how much students like the program, or how much their self-esteem has improved (as subjectively measured by a teacher’s evaluation). One of the best papers I found on the topic was written by Dr. Mark Leather – it acknowledges the potential benefits of forest schools while removing the rose-tinted glasses to clearly see the limitations of the research base on this topic as well.  So invited Dr. Leather onto the show to explore what are forest schools, what may be their benefits, and whether he would send his child to one… References Aasen, W., Torunn, L., & Waters, J.

Are you an adventuring family or a stay-at-home-and-get-stuff-done family? I sometimes fall into the latter category (I love my to-do lists!), but whenever I muster up the energy to take my children on an adventure, I never regret it. We seem to grow closer to each other and make more lasting memories when we discover the world together. On today's episode, Chamaine Wallenzein, the found of Wandering Families and a mother of five young children, gives us practical tips and tricks for how and why to adventure with our families. And if you're not a hiker or camper, don't worry--this episode is still for you! Chamaine and I discuss how an adventure is any type of shared experience that is out of the ordinary--and you can totally tailor that according to your family culture! Listen in to this wise and spunky mama, and be inspired to build in more opportunities for connection and memories with your family!   Show Notes Chamaine's website, Wandering Families: http://www.wanderingfamilies.com/ How to Raise a Wild Child: The Art and Science of Falling in Love with Nature by Scott Sampson: https://amzn.to/2NDwcq2 Timbernook (outdoor sensory play program): http://www.timbernook.com/2017/index.html Dr. Katie Penry's episode "How to Stop Looking at Your Phone So Much--And Why It Matters": https://3in30podcast.com/phones/ Let's Meet at the Rediscover YOU Workshop in Draper, UT (September 28-29): https://3in30podcast.com/lets-meet/   Great Quotes from the Episode -"The natural world seems to invite and facilitate parent-child connection and sensitive interactions. Unplugging and taking a baby away from electronic distractions creates an opportunity for what is called 'affective sharing' - oohing and aahing together over the sun shining through the leaves of a big tree...feeling a soft spring rain or a light winter snowfall on your face.” Martha Farrell Erickson -"If a child is to keep alive his inborn sense of wonder...he [or she] needs the companionship of at least one adult who can share, rediscovering the joy, excitement, and mystery of the world we live in.” Rachel Carson

In this episode, I interview Dr. Scott Sampson from the popular PBS Kids "Dinosaur Train" program. We talk about his early beginnings and how that led him to become a paleontologist. We then touch base on the dinosaurs he's discovered and common misconceptions people have about them. We also talk about how he brought his passion for nature and paleontology to television audiences around the world.

We should protect our children from risks, right?  Isn’t that our job as parents? This episode comes mid-way in an extended series on the importance of play for children.  The interview with Dr. Scott Sampson (https://yourparentingmojo.com/wildchild/) who wrote the book How to Raise a Wild Child, which had tons of practical advice for getting kids outside more, as well as getting outside more with your kids. Today we move on to the topic of risky play.  We’ll define it, and discuss its benefits and drawbacks, as well as things we as parents can do to encourage more risky play if we decide we want to do that. Because it turns out that insulating our children from risk may not be such a good thing after all.   Other episodes referenced in this show What is the value of play?

So you listened to episode 58 and you’re convinced of the benefits of outdoor play (https://yourparentingmojo.com/outdoor/) . But you’re a grown-up. You don’t play outdoors. And you don’t know anything about nature.  How can you possibly get started in helping your child to play outdoors more? There are a number of books out there on getting outside with children – some arguably more well-known than this one, but I have to say that Dr. Scott Sampson’s book How to Raise a Wild Child is the BEST book I’ve seen on this topic because it balances just the right amount of information on why it’s important to get outside, with just enough pointers on how to do it, without overwhelming you with hundreds of options to choose between.  And it turns out that you don’t need to know a thing at all about The Environment to have a successful outing with children! If you’ve been wishing you could get outdoors more but just don’t know where to start, then this episode – and book! – are for you.

For those of you who get my fortnightly newsletter, which you can receive by subscribing to the show YourParentingMojo.com, you know that I have a bit of a penchant for the outdoors. I went on a 10 day backpacking trip across North Cascades National Park in September, and I’m trying to pass on my love of the outdoors to my daughter, most of our newsletters have a photo at the top and pretty often they go out with an image of her sitting in a stream or clambering over boulders or up to her thighs and a pond wearing waders, of course. And so today we’re going to talk with Dr Scott Sampson, the author of how to raise a wild child, the art and science of falling in love with nature, which I have to say is the best book I’ve read on this topic in terms of balancing information about the science of children in nature with a not overwhelming number of actions that parents can take to raise a wild child. Dr Sampson has the honor of being the first paleontologist we’ve interviewed on this show. He earned both his master’s in anthropology and a phd in zoology from the University of Toronto. He’s currently the president and CEO of Science World British Columbia, which is a pretty cool hands on science museum in Vancouver. And if his name sounds familiar to the parents of preschoolers, it’s because he also hosts the PBS kids series dinosaur train. I’m so excited to discuss this topic that’s so close to my heart. Welcome Dr Sampson. Dr. Sampson:                    (https://www.temi.com/editor/t/CcufTAn40AG7-jXFnxZhL0_pKUbnGS9nd1A3IhtMc6sC61UyPRgl8Xs9tO6sk7LiGCXfvPe68ozDGa66mzwy8nxcrYs?loadFrom=DocumentDeeplink&ts=116.38)                    Thank you very much, Jen. Nice to be honest.

This is the second in our extended series of episodes on children’s play.  We kicked off last week with a look at the benefits of play (https://yourparentingmojo.com/play/) in general for children, and now we’re going to take a more specific look at the benefits of outdoor play.  Really, if someone could bottle up and sell outdoor play they’d make a killing, because it’s hard to imagine something children can do that benefits them more than this. This episode also tees up our conversation, which will be an interview with Dr. Scott Sampson on his book How To Raise A Wild Child, which gives TONS of practical suggestions for getting outdoors with children.   Other episodes referenced in this show How to scaffold children’s learning to help them succeed (https://yourparentingmojo.com/005-how-to-scaffold-childrens-learning/) Is a Reggio Emilia-inspired preschool right for my child?

Welcome to Life-Centered, the podcast about how looking to the natural world is impacting technology, society, and how we live our lives. I’m Tim McGee, and in this episode Amelia Tracy and I talk with Scott Sampson. Scott is best known as Dr. Scott, from the popular television show Dinosaur Train where he served as science advisor and on air host. In real life Dr. Sampson (or Scott as we call him) is a dinosaur paleontologist, science communicator, and passionate advocate for connecting people with nature. We were able to catch up with Scott in Vancouver B.C., where he president and CEO of Science World British Columbia. In this conversation we dug into his insights around how we can create a thriving world as an embedded part of nature. We touch on the subtle but important difference between biophilia and topophilia, the integration of high tech and deep tech, and the nuances of mentoring vs. teaching. We also discuss his new book ‘How to Raise a Wild Child’ and along the way get to learn where Scott would spend one hour if he could travel through time, train or no train. Enjoy.

Dr. Scott Sampson talks about his new book "How to Raise a Wild Child" and encourages families to get their kids outdoors! Cornelia Seigneur chimes in with great activities here in the Portland area.

Scott Sampson is a Canadian paleontologist and science communicator, best known as “Dr. Scott” on the PBS Kids show “Dinosaur Train.” He is currently Vice President of Research & Collections and Chief Curator at the Denver Museum of Nature & Science. His new book is “How to Raise a Wild Child: The Art and Science of Falling in Love with Nature.” Dr. Scott Sampson was in the Northwest to speak at Town Hall Seattle, presented by: Town Hall and University Book Store, as part of The Seattle Science Lectures and the Town Green series.

On the podcast today we have a real life Paleontologist! Dr Scott Sampson, who was also the Paleontologist on the PBS show Dinosaur Train, has a new book entitled How to Raise a Wild Child about encouraging families to take their kids outside of the house and play. To find out more about Dr. Scott you can go to www.raiseawildchild.com. We also have 3 cool things this week ranging from a Balloon Festival in Austin Texas, some Lego Ninjango training at  LegoLand Discovery Center and amazing anatomy of animals at Body World: Animal Inside out at The Franklin Institute. 

ConsciousSHIFT with Julie Ann Turner featuringSCOTT SAMPSON / HOW TO RAISE A WILD CHILDConnecting people, and especially children, with nature is one of the most pressing issues of our time: in the age of Google and iPhones, how are we to find a balance between technology and the natural world? Luckily, Julie Ann's ConsciousSHIFT guestScott Sampson - author of "HOW TO RAISE A WILD CHILD" - shows, the very best place to connect with nature is - wherever you happen to live ... as he joins Julie Annto explore how to hook kids on nature (even in urban environments!) and help grown-ups become highly successful nature mentors, as well. American children spend just 4 to 7 minutes a day playing outdoors — 90 percent less time than their parents did. Yet recent research shows that experiences in nature are essential for healthy growth. Regular exposure to nature can help relieve stress, depression, and attention deficits.
