Podcasts about social context

主播：Meimei（中国）+ Maelle（法国） 音乐：Ship and the Globe今天我们要聊一个最近很火的潮流“ColorWalk”，一种用颜色重新发现城市的新型散步方式。它就像在城市里散步，但有一个反转（with a twist）。不再只是打卡网红地标，而是把城市当作调色板，每一步都能发现新的美。01. What is ColorWalk & How It Works ？ 什么是ColorWalk以及如何玩？ColorWalk 的具体玩法是：出门前选定一个颜色，然后上街去寻找（go hunting for it）—— 路牌、门、花朵，任何与你当天颜色匹配的东西（anything that matches your color of the day）。这种玩法在社交媒体上非常火爆（has really taken off on social media），比如小红书、抖音、Instagram 等等（you name it）。人们制作城市的小色彩地图，甚至称之为“口袋里的春天”（a spring in your pocket）。文案如 “用脚步丈量城市，把色彩装进口袋” 浏览量已超过 5 亿。具体操作：出门前选定一个颜色，然后在街头开启“寻宝模式”，主动寻找所有带这个颜色的事物。它与普通城市散步不同，你不是漫无目的地闲逛（you're not wandering aimlessly），而是有一个任务 —— 色彩任务（a color mission）。这让人更专注，不再漫无目的四处漫游，也不是光顾着盯着手机，而是观察生活的细节。这是一种聚焦式的探索（focused exploration）。它把简单的散步变成了一种近乎冥想的状态（turns a simple walk into something almost meditative），让人沉浸在沉静的氛围中，就像冥想（meditation）一样。你会开始注意到事物的质感（textures）、影子（shadows）、图案（patterns），突然之间城市变得新鲜起来（the city feels new）。02. Cultural & Social Context 文化与社会背景为什么这个潮流在年轻人中特别受欢迎？年轻人想要训练自己的注意力，同时也在寻找幸福感。ColorWalk 提供了一个 “慢下来” 的理由。在法国，有一种类似的玩法叫做“promenade colorée”（彩色散步），艺术家或摄影师在社区里寻找特定颜色，但结构不那么固定，更偏重创意（less structured and more about creativity）。在美国，城市摄影中也有这种趋势，人们一天专注于一个色彩主题，像是把正念与视觉叙事结合在一起（merging mindfulness with visual storytelling）。这种文化对比很有趣：无论在哪，有意识地去发现色彩是让人停下脚步去感受身边的美，但方式和社交化的程度会不同。03. Psychological Benefits of Noticing Color 注意颜色的心理益处注意到颜色有心理层面的益处（psychological benefit）。有研究表明，看到鲜艳的颜色会让人心情愉快，蓝色可以让人平静，红色能增加兴奋感，绿色让人放松。ColorWalk不仅是一种美学体验，也是心理健康的小练习。它是一种微冥想（micro-meditation）：你的注意力被训练，眼睛和心灵到处都能发现美，你甚至能获得成就感（a sense of accomplishment）。这种“主动观察”还有助于提高注意力和创造力，让大脑保持活跃。有趣的是，有意识地注意到环境中颜色的人报告说感觉更快乐，与城市的联系也更紧密（more connected to their city）。这也解释了为什么大家愿意拍照、拼贴颜色地图、甚至晒到社交平台上。04. Personal Experience 个人探索城市的方式当旅行或在一个新城市散步时，喜欢走进那些游客较少的小街（the smaller streets that are less touristy），真正体验当地生活（really experience the local life）。与当地人一起吃饭，在当地商店购物，沉浸于真实的当地生活（immerse myself in the authentic local life）。这是尝试走不寻常的路（go off the beaten path），而不仅仅是看旅游景点。这样能发现城市中大多数人看不到的一面（discover a side of the city that most people don't see）。用经历而不是照片来绘制你自己的城市色彩地图（painting your own color map of the city with experiences, not just photos）。下次在你所在的城市散步时，尝试一次ColorWalk。选一个颜色，环顾四周，看看你注意到了什么（Pick a color, look around, and see what you notice）。把城市变成自己的艺术画布，找到属于你的色彩碎片，也是一种小小的幸福训练。欢迎在评论区留言：在你生活的城市里，有没有哪个角落或哪条小路，让你发现了意想不到的色彩之美？In the city where you live, is there a corner or a path where you've discovered unexpected beauty of color?

Watch this episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/pLLZZ2EhLaw In this episode of The Science of Creativity, Keith Sawyer sits down with Teresa Amabile, one of the world's most influential creativity researchers, to explore a deceptively simple question: How much does our social environment shape our creativity? Drawing on more than five decades of research, Amabile dismantles the myth that creativity is solely a matter of individual talent or inspiration.  The conversation traces Amabile's groundbreaking research on intrinsic vs. extrinsic motivation, including classic experiments showing how rewards, evaluation, surveillance, and competition can undermine creativity—and how, under the right conditions, external rewards can actually enhance it. The episode closes with practical advice listeners can apply immediately—from keeping a daily progress journal to a surprisingly effective technique borrowed from Ernest Hemingway. This wide-ranging conversation offers deep insights for educators, managers, creatives, and anyone interested in sustaining creativity across a lifetime.  Key Takeaways Creativity is not just individual—it's social. While creativity happens in the brain, it is powerfully shaped by social, organizational, and cultural contexts. Intrinsic motivation is essential for creativity. People are most creative when they are driven by interest, curiosity, and personal challenge—not by rewards or evaluations. Extrinsic rewards can undermine creativity—but not always. Rewards that feel controlling reduce creativity, but rewards experienced as bonuses can enhance creativity when intrinsic motivation is already high. A simple daily habit can boost creativity. Keeping a brief "progress journal" helps people recognize forward movement, sustain motivation, and navigate setbacks. Leave creative work unfinished—on purpose. Stopping at a point where you know the next step can make it easier to re-enter creative flow and benefit from overnight incubation. About Dr. Teresa Amabile Dr. Amabile's web site Teresa M. Amabile is the Edsel Bryant Ford Professor of Business Administration, Emerita, at Harvard Business School. Her most recent book, Retiring: Creating a Life That Works for You, presents insights from a decade of research on the psychological, social, and life restructuring challenges of retiring. Teresa's research has appeared in over 100 scholarly journal articles and many other outlets, including Harvard Business Review, as well as several edited books.  Music by license from SoundStripe: "Uptown Lovers Instrumental" by AFTERNOONZ "Miss Missy" by AFTERNOONZ "What's the Big Deal" by Ryan Saranich Copyright (c) 2026 Keith Sawyer

In this solo episode, Lisa weaves together ideas from recent episodes around the internalized male gaze, social identity, privilege and oppression, and the “animal brain” to explore why we feel so self‑conscious and how to feel safer in our bodies. She explains why this inner work is essential for intentional weight loss. Drawing on personal stories from the gym, yoga class, and a crowded airport, Lisa shares a practical, mindfulness‑based way to work through the fear of being judged. At the heart of the practice is learning to treat focus like a muscle that can be strengthened over time. Lisa offers simple tools like closing her eyes, imagining a protective bubble, and intentionally putting herself in visible situations to retrain her brain. The bigger goal is reclaiming your power by prioritizing how you feel over what others think—because their opinions are truly none of your business. Topics Include:Self‑consciousnessInternalized gazeNervous system regulationReclaiming personal power[1:29] Lisa explains that the goal of this episode is to share methods for managing the "animal brain" in social contexts to feel safe in one's body, which is presented as the foundation for intentional weight loss. She clarifies that preoccupation with others' perceptions is not about weight but about an innate "animal brain" response to navigate social hierarchies and feel safe. She explains that one must take responsibility for managing this part of the brain to avoid a life of distraction and disconnection from self.[3:20] Lisa talks about how she previously rejected internalized norms tied to the “curriculum of girlhood” and now lives more consciously within the social context she once denied. She emphasizes returning attention to self rather than remaining lost in others' judgments. Lisa recounts returning to New York gyms after weight loss and preoccupation with others' perceptions, including from former schoolmates and a past crush. She notes how she had to keep redirecting her attention from external gaze to her body and workout to maintain presence and safety. Lisa encourages a gentle, loving return to the present whenever distraction occurs.[21:52] Lisa explains that the gym is a controlled social container for practicing returning attention to the body and that any exercise can be a mind–body practice with mindful awareness. She talks about how distraction undermines performance and increases injury risk, especially under heavy loads. [26:37] Lisa talks about how yoga's purpose is presence; ego and self-conscious thoughts disrupt balance and focus. She explains how movement serves as gradual, trauma-informed exposure to tolerating discomfort and returning attention to the body. Lisa explains that exercise is a practical mindfulness and exposure tool to reclaim presence and bodily safety in social contexts.[33:13] Lisa describes how she focuses on muscles, breath, sweat, and internal cues to heal disconnection and dissociation. Lisa shares how she uses an indestructible bubble visualization to feel safe during workouts and stressful situations in life. [1:18:49] She wraps up the episode by explaining that these are the tools she used and continues to use to stay mindful and present in her body and are necessary for the foundation of safety needed to successfully engage in intentional weight loss. *The views of podcast guests do not necessarily reflect the views and beliefs of Lisa Schlosberg or Out of the Cave, LLC.Embody Peace With Food: A Revolutionary Holistic Approach - Omega Institute: July 12-17, 2026LISA IS NOW ACCEPTING: One-on-One Clients!⁠Purchase the OOTC book of 50 Journal Prompts⁠⁠Leave Questions and Feedback for Lisa via OOTC Pod Feedback Form ⁠Email Lisa: ⁠lisa@lisaschlosberg.com⁠⁠Out of the Cave Merch⁠ - For 10% off use code SCHLOS10Lisa's Socials: Instagram⁠ ⁠Facebook⁠ ⁠YouTube⁠

In this solo episode, Lisa reflects on the complex relationship between identity, body image, and authenticity as she reads her essay about developing humor and personality as a survival strategy. Lisa explores how weight loss, shifting social responses, and global awakening experiences sparked an identity crisis that expanded into a deeper understanding of privilege, oppression, and the social context that shapes how bodies are perceived. Lisa examines the intoxicating pull of external validation, the grief of benefiting from appearance, and the lifelong practice of returning to embodied safety and self‑connection.Topics Include:Persona vs. Authentic SelfPrivilege and OppressionExternal ValidationSelf Connection[6:29] Lisa shares her Common App essay which focuses on her weight and personality. She describes her weight as her only flaw and the source of disrespect and impatience with herself. To compensate for not physically fitting in, Lisa cultivated a personality, using humor as her confidence. She reflects that her struggles with weight forced her to develop her inner self. Lisa recalls reading the essay years ago and viewing it through the lens of codependency and people-pleasing, a kind of persona created from a feeling of being unsafe. She used humor as a performance because she felt she couldn't be her authentic self due to her body. She concludes the essay with her valuing the person she became.[15:37] Lisa describes her time on Semester at Sea as the first time she entered a new social environment as a "thin person” and she wasn't receiving the same constant praise she previously had on campus for losing weight. She describes this confusing experience where her role in society felt like it was changing, but she couldn't articulate what was happening.[20:26] Lisa now understands this confusion was due to the world responding to her differently and her responding to the world differently. Lisa explains how her eyes were opening to the social context in general, leading to a crisis about how the world works. Her inability to process this existential crisis manifested physically as the origin of her IBS symptoms. [25:43] Lisa describes this period in her life where she became acutely aware of societal issues like racism, sexism, and poverty for the first time. She emphasized how her perception of the world had changed. Sociology 101 introduced her to the concepts of privilege and oppression. She noted that while the class discussed race, gender, and sexual orientation, the lens of body size was her own connection, allowing her to put the dots together.[43:51] Lisa shared a memory of walking down the street and being ignored by a man passing by and she began reflecting on when she began defining herself by how others saw her. She explained that the goal is not to swing the pendulum from being negatively judged to being positively judged but to be seen for who you truly are.[52:13] Lisa explains that to feel safe in one's body as it is, one must be connected to that body and spiritual being. Lisa issued an invitation for listeners to self-reflect on how much mental "real estate" the preoccupation with others' thoughts takes up in their daily lives.[59:46] She wraps up the episode with an invitation to let the current discussion "settle and marinate" and consider their own position as a person with an "animal brain in a social context," living within constructs of privilege and oppression.*The views of podcast guests do not necessarily reflect the views and beliefs of Lisa Schlosberg or Out of the Cave, LLC.Embody Peace With Food: A Revolutionary Holistic Approach - Omega Institute: July 12-17, 2026LISA IS NOW ACCEPTING: One-on-One Clients!⁠Purchase the OOTC book of 50 Journal Prompts⁠⁠Leave Questions and Feedback for Lisa via OOTC Pod Feedback Form ⁠Email Lisa: ⁠lisa@lisaschlosberg.com⁠⁠Out of the Cave Merch⁠ - For 10% off use code SCHLOS10Lisa's Socials: Instagram⁠ ⁠Facebook⁠ ⁠YouTube⁠

This is a re-release of Ichimon Japan episode 28. On this episode of Ichimon Japan we ask: How do Japanese names work? Topics Discussed How people in Japan normally state their family name before their given name The complicated history of naming practices in Japan Commoners being prohibited from using family names during the Edo Period The Meiji era laws that mandated every Japanese person take a family name The reluctance of some people to take a family name during the Meiji Period The fact that many (most?) people with the surname Satō (佐藤) are probably not descended from samurai The fact that many commoners were given last names based on the geographical features of the area in which they lived The story of how the Furo (風呂) family supposedly got their family name from Minamoto no Yoshitsune The most common family names in Japan in 2019 How many Japanese family names there are The prevalence of rare Japanese last names The regional nature of some Japanese family names The convention of naming boys based on their birth order How it's easy to forget people's first names in Japan Some of the factors people in Japan consider when naming a baby Asking people in Japan about the kanji they use for their given name as a way to spark conversation The phenomenon of siblings having related names Interesting names in anime The practice of picking a baby name based on the way a name is written How much it usually costs to have a shrine pick a baby name for you What a seimeihandanshi is What it might cost you to have a seimeihandanshi pick a baby name for you A list outlining the most popular baby names in Japan of 2019 The Japanese naming convention of tōriji How shorter names have become common in Japan in recent years How female names that end in -ko used to be more common And much more! Note: Just for the sake of clarity, I'd like to point out that the story of the Furo family name did not occur during the Meiji Period (actually it probably never even occurred in the way it is normally told). However, because the story was introduced alongside the changes of the Meiji Period it's possible to be left with the impression that there was a connection there. There is no direct connection. The story was simply brought up as an example of the many interesting ways in which people in Japan acquired last names.

What's the episode about? In this episode, hear Professor Douglas Davies on thedevelopment of death studies, ‘words against death', the ‘dividual', religion, ‘sacred secrets', the ‘opacity of the self' and the ‘curated everything', keeping a dream diaries since 1979, the over-optimism of posthumanism, wealth inequality, & the privilege of intellectuals as ‘people who think'.Who is Douglas? This introduction to Douglas Davies was written by DrGeorgina Robinson, who awarded Douglas with the Lifetime Achievement Award at the 2025 Death, dying and Disposal Conference in Utrecht, the Netherlands. Douglas Davies is a name known to all who work in theinterdisciplinary field of Death Studies. From early career scholars, fresh in the field, through to senior colleagues who have themselves deeply influenced the field, the stories that people tell of their experiences of Douglas are always warm and encouraging, yet unique to the individual: the time and careDouglas gives to all who encounter him is a true testament of his character.  As a founding member of ASDS and editorial board member ofMortality Douglas has always offered a home to Death Studies scholars, having hosted numerous Death Studies events, including the International Conference onthe Social Context of Death, Dying, and Disposal and the inaugural International Symposium of the Death Online Research Network (DORS#1), as well as events for funerary professionals, including numerous Summer Schools of theNational Association of Funeral Directors.  Alongside these external events, Douglas has also welcomedcountless students, researchers, and professional colleagues to Durham during his time as Director of Durham University's Centre for Death and Life Studies through visiting professorships, library scholarships to work in the Archivesof the Cremation Society of Great Britain, alongside conferences hosted by the Centre. What is unique about Douglas is that despite his countless works whichhave deeply influenced scholarly thinking within the field, more often than not, it is a conversation or engagement with him that sticks with Death Studies scholars: his kindness and encouraging nature are second-to-none.  Nevertheless, the significant impact that his countlessworks have had – both academically and practically, with his work impacting policy changes and the funeral sector itself – must not be understated (e.g., Mors Britannica, 2015; Death, Ritual and Belief, 3 editions 1997, 2002, 2017;Natural Burial, 2012; A Brief History of Death, 2005; Theology of Death, 2008). Significantly, 2025 marks 50 years of Douglas's career in academia: how fitting that the association he was formative in establishing would award him with thehonour of Lifetime Achievement Award this year. How do I cite the episode in my research and reading lists? To cite this episode, you can use the following citation: Davies, D.

What are the challenges when it comes to objectively measuring high sensitivity in people? In this week's episode of The Gentle Rebel Podcast , I speak with researcher and lecturer Andrew May from Queen Mary University of London. Andrew has worked closely with Michael Pluess on studies exploring sensory processing sensitivity, genetics, and the measurement of sensitivity across different populations. His work explores the question, What does it mean to be highly sensitive in the modern world? https://youtu.be/rf1U1wxck_w The Challenge of Measuring Sensitivity The Highly Sensitive Person Scale, originally developed by Elaine and Arthur Aron in 1997, has shaped the study of sensitivity for nearly three decades. It opened an important new field of research. Yet, like all self-report tools, it relies on honest reporting of how people see themselves. And as Andrew points out, psychological measurement is never fully objective. It reflects cultural ideas about what counts as “normal,” “ideal,” or “acceptable.” Someone raised to view sensitivity as weakness might understate their responses. Meanwhile, another who finds identity or comfort in the HSP label might amplify them. In both cases, results are shaped as much by social context as by biology. This is why researchers continue refining how sensitivity is assessed. Gender expectations add another layer. Men often report lower sensitivity due to norms surrounding masculinity. Likewise, cultural attitudes influence which traits, such as empathy, gentleness, and conscientiousness, are valued and how safe people feel to acknowledge them. This reveals how psychology and culture continually shape one another. What we measure as “inner traits” also carries the imprint of the social stories we live. Sensitivity and the Limits of Objectivity As new scales and tools emerge, supported by neuroimaging, physiological studies, and genetics, it's worth asking what kind of knowledge we're actually seeking. If sensitivity arises through both biology and relationship, how much can we truly understand it outside the contexts that shape and reflect it? Sensitivity is reflected not only in biological patterns such as brain activity and cortisol levels, but also in how we interpret and respond to life. The Social Context of Self-Reporting As research on sensitivity evolves, one essential question remains: how do we speak about it without creating a hierarchy? The aim is not to prove that highly sensitive people are deeper, kinder, or more moral than others. Instead, we aim to understand how different nervous systems and psychological dispositions engage with the world. Sensitivity is not a fixed identity. It's a way of perceiving and participating in life. It reminds us that human variation is not a flaw to be corrected. Instead, it’s a source of creativity, empathy, and adaptability for individuals and communities. Related Considerations When I share about high sensitivity, people sometimes respond that I'm describing traits linked to autism or ADHD. Andrew helped clarify why this confusion arises and how Sensory Processing Sensitivity (SPS) differs. High Sensitivity and Autism High sensitivity and autism can coexist, and some traits overlap, especially under stress. Both may involve strong reactions to sensory input. However, they differ in specific areas such as theory of mind (the ability to intuit others' perspectives). This tends to remain intact in highly sensitive individuals and may present differently for those on the autism spectrum. High Sensitivity and ADHD ADHD and sensitivity can also overlap. People with ADHD may act impulsively or struggle to sustain focus. In contrast, highly sensitive individuals are more likely to pause before responding. Recognising this distinction helps shape appropriate support for each profile, as well as those with both traits. High Sensitivity and Giftedness “Giftedness” is a loosely defined concept that is sometimes mistaken for sensitivity. While highly sensitive people may thrive creatively or intellectually in supportive environments, giftedness refers to broader capacities. Sensitivity alone cannot account for these capacities. Keeping these distinctions clear prevents unnecessary pressure and misunderstanding. Ultimately, exploring sensitivity invites us to hold complexity rather than resolve it. It asks us to look beyond labels and measurements, to see how biology, experience, and culture weave together in the fabric of being human. When we approach sensitivity not as a category to define but as a way of relating to ourselves, to others, and to the world, we make space for a richer, more honest understanding. This understanding of what it means to feel deeply and live attentively is invaluable. More About Andrew Andrew is a lecturer in medical genetics at Kingston University London, and a former UK Research and Innovation-funded postdoctoral researcher based at the University of Surrey, under the mentorship of Professor Michael Pluess. He is also affiliated with the Sydney Brenner Institute for Molecular Bioscience and the Neuropsychology Research Laboratory at the University of the Witwatersrand, South Africa. Andrew has a Master of Science (Medicine) in human genetics and a PhD in research psychology. His research interests include individual differences in environmental sensitivity, personality, mental health, minority stress, and early childhood development, examined from both psychological and genetic perspectives. In true highly sensitive person style, Andrew enjoys reading, board games, meditation, yoga, piano, spending time with animals (cats!), and other quiet pursuits.

In this episode we speak with Dr. Jonathan Purtle, Associate Professor of Public Health Policy and Management at NYU GPH. Dr. Purtle discusses his career path from teaching second grade to becoming a mental health policy researcher. The episode explores mental health policy, implementation science, and the translation of research into effective policy. Specifically, it addresses the challenges of scaling up evidence-based practices and the importance of considering structural determinants like housing and education in mental health outcomes. Dr. Purtle also addresses the role of communication and writing in public health, emphasizing the need to effectively translate research for policymakers and the broader community, including through public health journalism.

My guest is Tom Segura, renowned comedian, writer, actor and director. We discuss the “how-to” of comedy writing and storytelling, and what the science of humor and the creative process reveal about human emotion and memory. We explore why surprise and the act of "saying the unspoken truth" activate the brain's reward circuits, as well as the subconscious mechanisms that shape our sense of what is funny. The episode also examines the bi-directional influence between comedy and cultural standards. It will interest anyone curious about the science of humor, the art of performance and emotional contagion. Read the episode show notes at hubermanlab.com.

Alcohol is often consumed around others: at bars or clubs, social events, college parties, or dinner with friends. How does alcohol influence social connection, and vis-a-versa? Why are they so seemingly interconnected? In this episode, Dr. Michael Sayette discusses his research on alcohol's relationship with the social context and the clinical importance of understanding how the acute effects of alcohol influence social connection. Dr. Sayette is a Distinguished Professor in the Department of Psychology at the University of Pittsburgh. You can learn more about his work here.

On this edition of One Single Story, Pastors Stephen Mizell and Sharon Schwartz discuss the following questions: What are some ways that this passage might be applied if it were misinterpreted outside of its social context? There is so much social pressure on American Christians in this generation. How much influence should social context have on our daily decisions? The subject of this passage is not modesty of dress, but how our dress choices can and do communicate to others about Christ. What do our fashion choices say to others about Christ? The reading for the day is 1 Corinthians 11.

Ice baths, 4 AM wake-up calls, fasts and more are garnering big-time attention on social media and elsewhere as paths to mental toughness, personal success and more. Beyond the 15 minutes of fame garnered by the post, is there any legitimate science behind these and other less dramatic ways to step into and through discomfort? And why, in the midst of the growing popularity of these strategies, do most of us often find it difficult – not to step into an ice bath - but to simply get off the couch and get moving?What does the science – the evidence - tell us? Is an ability to do hard things due to genetics? Habit?  A combination of the two? Are there ways to enhance our ability to step into challenges with purpose? Or are we just stuck with the way we are, with no practical ways in which to enhance our skill set in this realm? In this episode, we'll dig into these questions and more as we explore the part of the brain that appears to play a significant role in the process of moving outside our veritable comfort zones, and why it's so important to both our current and future lives.

Vad som var speciellt med YIVO Folksong Project: East European Jewish Folksong in its Social Context, Östeuropeisk judisk folksång i sitt sociala sammanhang, jämfört med tidigare musik-etnologiska inspelningsprojekt var att fokus låg på sångarna snarare än på sångerna i sig. Med frågor som var de lärde sig sångerna, vid vilka tillfällen de sjöng dem och vad de väcker för känslor hos dem kunde musiken sättas in just i sitt sociala sammanhang.Nu har alla 230 timmar sånger och berättelser gjorts tillgängliga på nätet.

About the Mini Series Welcome to our special mini series - "Context of Sedentary Behavior and Physical Activity". This six-part series, hosted by Dr. Olli Tikkanen and sponsored by Fibion, provides a deep dive into the multifaceted world of physical activity and sedentary behavior. The series is aimed at researchers, clinicians, and anyone interested in understanding and influencing human behavior in relation to physical activity. The series explores the social, emotional, and temporal contexts of these behaviors, discusses measurement techniques, and offers insights on how these understandings can be used to design and implement effective interventions. About the Episode Topic In this first episode titled "The Role of Social Context in Physical Activity and Sedentary Behavior," we explore how social elements can greatly impact our choices about physical activity and sedentary habits. Our social networks - including our family, friends, and colleagues - can greatly influence our daily activity levels and lifestyle choices. The episode discusses how various social elements like family dynamics, workplace environments, community support, socioeconomic factors, and cultural context can either promote or inhibit active lifestyle choices. We further delve into how understanding these factors can help us devise personalized strategies to encourage physical activity and reduce sedentary behaviors. By doing so, we aim to better understand the wider social context of our daily behaviors and how this knowledge can be used to promote healthier living. The episode concludes with a teaser for the next episode that will delve into the emotional context of physical activity and sedentary behavior.

The Buddha made clear that the success of our practice depends critically on an appropriate social context for practice. Self-help focuses on practice in inappropriate contexts. (Buddhism as Self-Help 9, 11/18/2022)

"You can be, at least according to Christian thought, the only sinless person in human history, and you can still be tortured and crucified in your early thirties."From the perspective of Christian theology, it's probably not going too far to say that both the moral exemplarity and the suffering life of Jesus should be central to the Christian understanding of flourishing. Here's another way to put it. Jesus was morally perfect and sinless, but encountered immense suffering, poverty, marginalization, and eventual torture and death. Tempted, yet without sin. But also counted among the sinners, according to Isaiah 53's "Suffering Servant" theme. He is acquainted with grief, familiar with sorrow, anguished in his soul.And so the big question here is: What kind of flourishing do we envision when we follow Christ toward that flourishing?Today, we're sharing a conversation between Matt Croasmun and Katie Grimes, Assistant Professor of Theological Ethics at Villanova University. Together they discuss the social context of theology, trying to make sense of the role of Christ in approaching theology from the perspective of flourishing. For Katie, thinking about flourishing means thinking about virtues and vices, and that means thinking about the habits that pull us along toward the fully realized human good. But it also means pursuing a theological vision that accounts for the most troubling social realities.Production NotesThis podcast featured Katie Grimes & Matt CroasmunEdited and Produced by Evan RosaHosted by Evan RosaA Production of the Yale Center for Faith & Culture at Yale Divinity School https://faith.yale.edu/aboutSupport For the Life of the World podcast by giving to the Yale Center for Faith & Culture: https://faith.yale.edu/give

Organizations develop strategic plans towards their future. However, many plans end up being divided into tasks that are distributed throughout the organization without a unified thread. This leads to a lack of focused action and clarity. In this age of ceaseless change and innovation, clarity is mandatory for high-growth outcomes. In today's episode we interview Lori Michele Leavitt, President and CEO of Abrige Corp. and author of the books, The Pivot: Orchestrating Extraordinary Business Momentum, and new release (April 2022), Pivot to Clarity. Today's topic is locked-in on the concept of aligned momentum; specifically, the clarity and mindful implementation of change as organizations Team Anywhere.Read the FULL Summary here!

In this episode Professor Todd Lewis discusses the importance of reaching students where they are, of unsettling their assumptions, and of teaching broad religious literacy in a world where much religious illiteracy prevails. He centers ritual and art in much of his teaching, wanting to balance the focus on elite and textual arts with popular practices and an awareness of the diversity of practitioners. He also communicates the complexity of different types of Buddhism through the use of diagrams like ones he has made that show different methods between Theravada and Mahayana understandings of the Buddhist path. Lewis is a Distinguished Professor of Arts and Humanities and Professor of World Religions in the Religious Studies Department at the College of the Holy Cross in Worcester MA. He teaches and publishes research on Buddhism, Hinduism, East Asian religions, anthropology of religions, modernization, ecology and religion, and he has won numerous awards for both his teaching and his research. This episode was recorded in December 2020.  Quotes “I think the bell curve is essential for studying all religions. There are really dedicated followers who may become monks and nuns, in the case of Buddhism, and there are people who barely show up or don't show up or who don't even believe this stuff unless they're pressed on the other tail of that. Then you have people in the middle, and every religion in every place can maybe be filled out in terms of the way these are specifically fulfilled.” Todd Lewis  “You can't essentialize Buddhism as any part of that bell curve.” Todd Lewis  “All social life is based on exchange.” Todd Lewis “Not all monks are virtuoso meditators.” Todd Lewis  “You need to show students Buddhists doing rituals. You need to show them gathering on full moon days and circumambulating stupas by the tens of thousands today.” Todd Lewis  “I don't want to get too sidetracked with the students about how some of these museums actually got their art but that's how we circle back to Orientalism.” Todd Lewis  “You want to make students aware and think about what their biases are as they enter in.” Todd Lewis “I want to provide a social context so that Buddhism doesn't just float out in our imaginations as something that exists without being grounded in particular places and times.” Todd Lewis  “We're going to disproportionately study the intellectuals and the philosophers, but I am trying to have them read and describe and see rituals, to see how Buddhism is lived in different times and places.” Todd Lewis “Museums are not the place to really understand the fullness of art, you have to see how it works.” Todd Lewis  “The context of our teaching is a huge part of how we should teach... I think you have to really meet your students where they are, and every institution has a slightly different culture.” Todd Lewis  “I want them to just see how they may have seen Buddhism dismissed as something that's flaky or not to be taken seriously. But there also is this hyper-idealizing of Buddhism in which Buddhism is accepted uncritically.” Todd Lewis  “We are still dealing with some of the distortions and misconceptions and stereotypes that Westerners brought to Buddhism.” Todd Lewis  “Religion always has to take into account both the transcendental elements and the pragmatic elements. If you neglect that, you're really missing something.” Todd Lewis  “We have religious illiteracy as a problem.” Todd Lewis  Links and References 8-fold path schema of Buddhaghosa Link on Teaching Buddhism website  Todd Lewis, College of the Holy Cross, Department of Religious Studies faculty profile page Stolen Images of Nepal, Lain Singh Bangdel, purchase book here Encyclopaedia of Buddhism, Robert Buswell, purchase book here Pancha Raksha, link to website "Transcendental and Pragmatic Aspects of Religion,” David G.

How might we reconcile the human species with the natural environment through excellent design?This week on The Learning Future podcast, we speak with Ewan McEoin, Hugh D.T Williamson Senior Curator of Contemporary Art, Design and Architecture at the NGV. We discuss the power of design to transcend pure aesthetics and ergonomics to include the political, social and ecological contexts in which things emerge. What are the consequences of our design choices, and how do we make the true cost of choice visible? Ewan takes us through increased transparency, empathy through an object, educating educators around design, and how we can support all people to be designers. Everyone can have a go at coming up with a better way of doing something. Ewan McEoin is Hugh D.T Williamson Senior Curator of Contemporary Art, Design and Architecture at the NGV. His role at the NGV includes collecting, advocating, and curating exhibitions, including solo, survey and thematic exhibitions. Key projects include the NGV Triennial (2017 and 2020), the annual NGV Architecture Commissions program (2015 – 2020) and the annual Melbourne Design Week program, Australia's leading international design festival. Ewan comes to the NGV after two decades of working in design strategy, curating and publishing. He is an Adjunct Professor in the School of Design and the Social Context at RMIT University and a member of the Board of the Robin Boyd Foundation.

Depuis la fin du 19e siècle, les momies ne cessent d'être invoquées dans notre imaginaire collectif comme des êtres vengeurs, détruisant tout ou presque sur leur passage afin de punir ceux qui auraient osé troubler leur tombe ou pire, leur repos millénaire. Cette perception est tellement dans notre imaginaire collectif que le cinéma et la littérature en perpétuent toujours l'image. Pour soutenir financièrement la chaîne, trois choix: 1.

According to the CDC, in the United States, 1 in 4 women and 1 in 7 men will experience severe physical violence by an intimate partner in their lifetime. Every October, the country observes Domestic Violence Awareness Month to bring attention to the issue and unite those who are working across the country to stop it.    Domestic violence, also known as intimate partner violence, is often thought of as an isolated or private issue. We tend to compartmentalize it as something that happens between two individuals, often behind closed doors. But in truth it is more common than one might think, and more connected to other critical issues, like lack of stable housing, poverty, systemic racism, police injustice, and more.     We'll explore these issues and connections in this new episode of the American Health Podcast. It features a dynamic conversation with three researchers and practitioners who are close collaborators: Michele Decker, a Bloomberg Associate Professor of American Health at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health; Charvonne Holliday, Assistant Professor at the Bloomberg School; and Janice Miller, a Bloomberg Fellow and licensed clinical social worker who is the Director of Programs and Clinical Services for House of Ruth Maryland.

This week, in our third episode within our mini-series on Social Determinants of Health, the Triage explores the components of Food, Community and Social Context, and the overlap between the two. We break down numerous concepts in this episode including the harmful nature of “volunteerism”, what exactly is cultural appropriation, and the difference between food charity and food justice. We are very excited to say Rachana is back after taking a short hiatus to study for her board exams!
