In years gone by, if a bee was annoying you, it was usually "bye-bye Mr. Bee" but nowadays, we're more likely to put out plates of sugary water to help them on their way as in recent years our appreciation for these incredible insects has grown, our understanding of their importance more rounded. But just how intelligent are they? Lars Chittka, Professor in Sensory and Behavioural Ecology at Queen Mary University of London and author of 'The Mind of a Bee' joins Jonathan to discuss.

Today I'm joined by Scott Schutte and Dr. Janine Stichter, co-founders of the Healthy Behavior Institute. Scott is a personal trainer, weight loss behavior coach, gym owner, and fitness educator who has successfully guided thousands of people on their fitness journey. Janine (whom he calls “Dr. J”) has been in the field of behavior change for over 20 years as a researcher, author, educator, and practitioner.  Her career has focused on understanding the “why” behind behavior and identifying clear practices that are practical and result in sustained change. As part of her research, she has procured over 14M in federal grants, published over 100 peer-reviewed articles and three books. (As well as chairing 40+ doctoral dissertations and masters committees, providing over 150 international and national presentations, and over 80 workshops.)  Together, they co-founded the Healthy Behavior Institute, an educational platform for fitness professionals and gym owners that specialize in behavior modification. I was particularly interested in having on the show because they are changing an industry where everyone has just sort of accepted that people don't do what they “should,” yet where everyone keeps doing the same thing over and over, expecting different results instead of trying something new. Thankfully, they have, and so I have asked them to enlighten us on the work they do and the advice they would give to others looking to do something similar – in any industry.  Show Notes: [00:44] In today's conversation, I am joined by Scott Schutte and Dr. Janine Stichter (Dr. J), co-founders of the Healthy Behavior Institute. [02:21] The Healthy Behavior Institute is an educational platform for fitness professionals and gym owners that specialize in behavior modification. [05:14] Scott shares about himself, his background, and how his work is related to behavioral science.  [06:06] Dr. J shares about herself, her background, and how her work is related to behavioral science. She has a doctorate in behavioral analysis. [08:22] The case for the need for behavioral science often comes from a health or wellness example because it is an area where everyone knows what they “should” do…but behavior rarely changes.  [09:50] Many times fitness trainers or the industry have misinformation because they are looking at things through their own lens.  [11:50] A lot of us can do something for a period of time that is extreme but we don't maintain it.  [12:15] Behavior does not persist unless it is being reinforced and serving a purpose.  [12:56] When they talk about the root causes they use the EATS Model - Escape, Attention, Tangible, and Sensory.  [14:21] If we can figure out and help people figure out what the root cause of the behavior is then we can find a replacement that matches that.  [16:09] Your eating behaviors and reasoning can flow throughout the day.  [19:01] Having a guide through these changes is the fast track and going to keep you on point.  [19:55] People go through different stages of life so they have different wants and desires. This is an ongoing process that we need to reevaluate and reconfigure along the way.  [23:16] We need to focus on the minimum we need to do to trend in the direction of our goals. Tracking or journaling can be a short term learning tool but it is not something everyone has to do long term.  [24:26] Your clients are coming with different personalities and different ways they are naturally wired – you need to meet them where they are at.  [25:45] Using tracking or journaling at certain points can be helpful when necessary to educate or just give a better picture.  [28:03] The EATS Model gives you a place to start to try to understand the behavior.  [30:37] We don't have to adjust everything every day. We could make adjustments a few days a week and still see an impact.  [32:56] Understanding the problem and the behavior shift you are trying to make is so important.  [34:32] Be cognizant of not trying to address the symptom but actually look at the why. [35:55] Behavior is a manifestation of what is going on in our heads. It is just an outward expression and we often need to get past that symptom.  [38:39] In behavior analysis and research the EATS Model is called the four functions of behavior and it applies to all industries.  [39:48] Any one thing can be all of those things (escape, attention, tangible, and sensory) at any given time.  [41:46] Melina shares her closing thoughts. [43:26] Taking the time to explore and explain how every behavior could be a source of Escape, a way to get Attention, getting something Tangible, or being Sensory is a great way to better understand (and potentially shift) that behavior.

Bees are having a heyday at the moment. I think many of us spent part of our time fascinated by bees and the other part terrified of getting stung.

From birth until now, in the latest podcast episode, I decipher the consequences of experiences in our perceptions. The sensory world includes not just smell and taste but also sight, touch, and sound. Over my last 3 years in coffee, I went deep on understanding sensory science, neuroscience, and how we perceive things. From taste and olfactory research to sound triggers and visual memory.  Every one of us has a different perception of flavor for instance. That goes the same for perception or sounds or smell based on a few factors that I mentioned in this podcast. By taking my story as an example, I explain this process in 4 steps from our heritage to our impact: 1. Sensory background 2. Sensory experience 3. Sensory mindset 4. Sensory signature Hope you'll make it through the very long podcast episode

Today's episode took me on a thought journey! My original plan was to stick to a rough structure but I let the mood of the moment carry me into a ponderland of mundane* astrology peppered with moments of synastry and sensory exploration. Yes I went on a waffly one, but listening back it was so much better that I thought it would be (this is always what happens!) so I must thank the source which allows this channel of information to flow though me. It happens from time to time and I trust that this what is expressed needs to be shared when I sit down with the sole intention of recording my podcast. Discussed is larger planetay transits which influence fashions and trends rather than indivduals. Do you have transpersonal planets aspecting your personal planets natally and have you noticed being part of the trends as they happen? Or are you having a transpersonal planet aspect your natal planets and are you affected by the current issues of the world on a personal level? *Mundane astrology is the branch of astrology whose subjects are the events of geographical regions, places, countries and the whole world (as opposed to individual astrology). The term comes from the Latin word mundus (world).   LINKS  The Book of Music Horoscopes https://frankclifford.co.uk/buybooks/#music The Great Hip Hop Hoax https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sUGUydxj-ck Kate Bush https://www.astrotheme.com/astrology/Kate_Bush Millie Bobby Brown https://www.astrotheme.com/astrology/Millie_Bobby_Brown

Social Interactions can be draining. Here's how to prepare: Take a friend-ventory. Know what friends you need more rest before seeing, or prefer in small groups. Note when you don't vibe with a venue or a group rather than an individual. Plan for recovery time, stretch breaks, bail out strategies, and other things you can do to parse out your experience with overwhelming stimulus. Sometimes, all we need is a quick break or a snack to reset the vibe. Replace FOMO with a lil JOMO - that feeling you get when plans you weren't jazzed about, happen to get cancelled by the other person. Channel that every time you say no.

Once a week just isn't enough! Enjoy new Tuesday episodes of the Craft Beer & Brewing podcast every other week, with different formats like this round table discussion as well as episodes where you get to ask the questions of our brewer guests! This round table discussion with Russian River, Cantillon, and Allagash kicks off the new series. Recorded in the coolship room at Russian River the morning of their Wild Friendship Blend event, the conversation between Rob Tod and Jason Perkins of Allagash, Jean and Florian Van Roy of Cantillon, and Natalie and Vinnie Cilurzo of Russian River explores both bigger picture questions about spontaneous brewing, and particular implementations and adaptations employed by the American breweries in making compelling beers using the traditional process. Topics include: - Stories from the earliest days of American spontaneous brewing - Sensory differences between spontaneous beer made at Allagash, Russian River, and Cantillon - The challenging in building a blend with "characterful" base beers - Creating environments that support better spontaneous brewing results - Tuning coolship rooms for more consistent and reliable production - The dynamics of spontaneous fermentation through a season - Reducing opportunities for failure - The various (and very different) ways each brewery ages and uses hops - Connecting spontaneous beer to consumers through experience And more.

Sensory fatigue: When your brain feels overstimulated with sensory inputs such as noise, lights, visual stimulation, sounds, conversation, etc. We all experience sensory needs + I truly believe we've all experienced certain levels of sensory overstimulation in some capacity. Like with everything else in life, everyone of us beautiful humans is unique, which means our triggers are gonna be unique, so while some people are sensitive to all loud noises, some of us are more sensitive to specific tones or voices, we may besensitive to specific sounds like teeth on a fork, some are sensitive to more energetic misalignments, some are sensitive to certain smells, or sensations, like scratchy sweaters or clingy turtlenecks or too much human contact. I suggest: pacing yourself to make it through the workday, shortening your workload, automating, delegating, scheduling, pacing, or planning breaks can help build stamina. Mental breaks can come in the form of safe playlists, meditations, zone out tasks, socialization, disconnecting, walking, anything that encourages a change in focus to restore mental stamina + encourage sustainability.Go easy on yourself as you learn to process this shit. It's gonna be harder on some days than others.RESOURCES: https://themighty.com/2018/04/sensory-overload-and-sensory-fatigue/ https://thehealthsessions.com/how-to-deal-with-sensory-overload/@Thebraincoach on instagram DONATE IF YOU CAN: https://secure.actblue.com/donate/givetolocalfundsGO AD FREE: www.patreon.com/mydbpodcastSEE MY FACE + OTHER CONTENT: www.youtube.com/juliemerica GET A MONTHLY NOTE FROM ME: www.makeyourdamnbedpodcast.com TUNE IN ON INSTAGRAM FOR DAILY(ish) QUOTES: www.instagram.com/mydbpodcastLUH YOU.

We explore the hidden world around us — the sights, smells, tastes, sounds, and vibrations that are imperceptible to humans, but are perceived by various animals and insects. We talk with science writer Ed Yong about his new book An Immense World.Justin Chang reviews two films from the Sundance Film festival — now streaming — about relationships between a younger man and an older woman, Cha Cha Real Smooth and Good Luck to You, Leo Grande.Also, we hear from Angela Garbes, author of the new book Essential Labor. She wrote it after having to give up work during the pandemic lockdown, when she no longer had daycare. She says, raising children shouldn't be as lonely, bankrupting and exhausting as it is.

U.S. Supreme Court Overturns Roe V. Wade The U.S. Supreme Court decided Friday to overturn Roe v Wade. While there have been rumblings that this decision was going to happen, it's still a shock to many people in the U.S. In early May, a draft opinion was leaked that had circulated among the court justices, showing a majority of them were in support of the overturn. This will have huge ripple effects throughout the U.S. when it comes to reproductive healthcare. A study from the University of California predicts a quarter of abortion clinics in the U.S. are likely to shut down under this rule, with the biggest impact in the South and Midwest. Guest host Maddie Sofia talks with SciFri radio producer Kathleen Davis about what's next for abortion rights in America and other science news of the week, including evidence of community transmission of polio in London and Canada's single-use plastic ban.   The Millions Of Ways Animals Sense The World A shark tracks its victims by smell, but uses the unmissable signal of a fish's electrical field to make its final strike. Fire-chaser beetles can detect the heat of distant forest fires with specialized cells in their heads. Baby tree frogs can detect the seismic signals of a striking snake from within the egg—and seem to hatch earlier in defense. And the prey-hunting visual system of one unassuming-looking Mediterranean fly, known as the killer fly, works faster than any other species we've observed. All of these are examples of an animal's umwelt, their specialized sensory bubble or window onto the world, as described by German biologist Jakob Johann von Uexküll over one hundred years ago. As science writer Ed Yong writes in his newest book, An Immense World: How Animal Senses Reveal The Hidden Realms Around Us, our history of studying animals' umwelten has been fraught with hubris, misunderstandings, and mistakes. But bit by bit, we're learning to appreciate the truly spectacular perceptive abilities of the owl, the elephantfish, and the humble jumping spider. Yong joins guest host Maddie Sofia to share stories of amazing animal sensory abilities and the challenges of both imagining and describing these other realms using human-centric language. Plus, the uniquely human capacity to imagine other animals' umwelten, and how we can use it to make the world better for them.   Transcripts for each segment will be available the week after the show airs on sciencefriday.com.

There's a vast world around us that animals can perceive — but humans can't. Pulitzer Prize-winning science writer Ed Yong talks about some of the sights, smells, sounds and vibrations that other living creatures experience. His book is An Immense World.
