Send us a textEp 664: Ever wondered how childhood experiences secretly shape your sexual desires and why most women struggle to ask for what they want in bed?In this eye-opening episode, Ruin Willow sits down with Tash Doherty (Miss Educated), a London-born writer, author, and sexuality advocate now based in Mexico who's on a mission to make the world "shamelessly sexy." Tash breaks down her three-pillar approach to sexual empowerment: discover what you want, believe you deserve it, and ask for it.The conversation dives deep into how family and cultural shame impact our sexuality, with Tash sharing insights from her upcoming **Sex Journal** launching on Kickstarter. This beautifully designed journal features 20 poems and themed prompts exploring ecstasy, obsession, longing, and desire—all designed to help women reduce shame and align their sex lives with their values.From discussing how childhood associations create unexpected fetishes to exploring the healing power of erotic writing, Tash traces sexuality's role throughout history—from Sappho to the Song Dynasty. She shares her journey from teen romance novelist to sex blogger, including viral pieces like "Get a Man Who Loves Your Bush."The duo also tackles the complex role of pornography in sexual education, highlighting ethical alternatives, and emphasizing the importance of self-exploration through masturbation and quality toys.Ready to explore your own sexual narrative without shame? Tune in for this transformative conversation about reclaiming pleasure and rewriting your story, thereby also improving your relationships. Key Takeaways:• A simple three-pillars formula—know what you want, believe you deserve it, ask for it—reframes sexual confidence as a learnable practice. • Erotic journaling can dismantle familial shame and scaled into a mainstream coffee-table Sex Journal launched on Kickstarter. • Stigmatized practices (masturbation, toys, "healthier" porn, open communication) are portrayed as deliberate tools to build self-knowledge, pleasure, and agency.Chapters Timeline:00:00:02 - Shamelessly Sexy00:04:23 - Writing a Sex Journal for Women00:07:23 - Shame and Sexuality00:12:37 - Exploring Female Sexuality and History00:16:09 - Exploring Sexuality Through Design00:18:12 - Achieving Orgasm Equality00:28:16 - Consent, communication, and sexual exploration00:30:56 - Orgasm Equality and Sexual Empowerment00:38:50 - Sex Tech and Favorite Toys00:39:38 - Sex Toys: Tools Not Replacements00:43:32 - Sex Toys Changed My Life, sexual health00:48:09 - Clitoris Shapes, Stimulation, and Orgasm, libido00:52:17 - Vulva vs Vagina, female anatomyConnect with Miss Educated, Tashhttp://misseducated.substack.com/http://tashdoherty.com/Support the showExclusives https://www.buzzsprout.com/1599808/subscribeNewsletters https://subscribepage.io/ruanwillowhttps://linktr.ee/RuanWillow Affiliates Firm Tech 15% OFF with code ruan15 https://myfirmtech.com/ruanwillow BeeDee dating app https://beedee.app/?r=ohfuckyeahThe Fantasy Box DATE30 for $30 OFF 1st box https://thefantasybox.sjv.io/c/6250602/2141126/26423
Bone marrow stimulation (BMS) is the most frequently performed surgical procedure for osteochondral lesions of the talus (OLTs). After the surgical intervention, one of the first goals of rehabilitation is to resume weightbearing. This study aims to compare clinical and radiologic outcomes between immediate weightbearing and delayed weightbearing, which represent unrestricted weightbearing and weightbearing starting at 6 weeks postoperatively. In conclusion, this matched cohort study found no statistically significant difference in clinical or radiologic outcomes at 12 months between immediate and delayed weightbearing following arthroscopic BMS for talar osteochondral lesions. Although early weightbearing may be feasible and well tolerated, the small sample size and wide CIs limit the strength of conclusions. These findings should be considered hypothesis-generating and underscore the need for larger, prospective trials. Click here to read the article

Angeregt durch einen dreiwöchigen Besuch in Uganda beleuchtet Martin Benz in dieser Episode drei ganz wichtige Aspekte des christlichen Glaubens und eines geisterfüllten Lebens. Wenn Gott Menschen inspiriert, dann erzeugt das einen Glauben, der zur Stabilisation, zur Stimulation und zur Transformation fähig ist. Es wird deutlich, was diese drei Aspekte des Glaubens bedeuten, welche Relevanz sie haben und warum sie unbedingt zusammengehören. In anderen Worten geht es um die passive, die aktive und die reflexive Seite des christlichen Lebens. Es geht um Anker, Motor und Kompass. Die Vorliebe progressiver Christen für den stimulierenden Aspekt des Glaubens mag vielleicht erklären, warum sich so mancher Evangelikale sorgen um ihren Glauben macht. Aber auch ein Glaube, der sich vor allem auf die stabilisierende und fundamentale Wirkung des Glaubens beschränkt, steht in der Gefahr einseitig zu werden.

Read the full show notes and transcript. When it comes to DOR, aka Diminished Ovarian Reserve, I will forever be reminding you, your friend, your friend's mom and anyone else who will listen: “diminished” does not mean “zero”! That's why I'm so happy to have Dr. Geoffrey Sher back on the show to talk all about egg stimulation specifically for women with a diminished ovarian reserve. Just because you may have gotten a DOR diagnosis does not mean your fertility journey ends here. In fact, there are still many ways that you can work with your doctor to give your remaining eggs the best chance at success. Like I always say: all it takes is one good egg! Here are just a few things we talked about in this amazing conversation: What you need to know about egg quality and how it declines over time What we can do to give eggs the best chance during IVF Why you might choose birth control (you read that right!) in this situation Resources: Contact Dr. Sher on his website Follow Dr. Sher on Instagram Would you like to learn more about IVF?Click here to join Dr. Aimee for The IVF Class. The next live class call is on Monday, September 15th, 2025 at 4pm PST, where Dr. Aimee will explain IVF and there will be time to ask her your questions live on Zoom.

Elsa Fouragnan is an Associate Professor and UKRI Future Leader Fellow at the University of Plymouth. We talk mainly about her work on focussed transcranial ultrasound stimulation, a new non-invasive way other stimulating (human) brains, including deep areas that can't be reached with TMS. We also discuss her childhood in French Polynesia, how she started doing research, what it's like seeing a brain during surgery, and much more.This was the first episode I recorded in-person. The audio quality is really good, with the minor exception that I made a really silly error during editing, such that quiet parts are sometimes not entirely audible. A few words are not audible, but this shouldn't affect comprehension.BJKS Podcast is a podcast about neuroscience, psychology, and anything vaguely related, hosted by Benjamin James Kuper-Smith.Support the show: https://geni.us/bjks-patreonTimestamps0:00:00: Elsa's childhood in French Polynesia and in mainland France0:10:25: Why Elsa studied engineering and started doing research0:19:04: How Elsa started working on Transcranial Focused Ultrasound Stimulation0:23:08: What is Transcranial Focused Ultrasound Stimulation?0:28:20: Is it safe?0:36:12: What can you do with it/what kind of stimulations is it?0:53:41: The practicalities of using TUS1:04:42: What it's like to see brain surgery in the operating theatre1:10:11: Back to the skull being a problem and which brains regions can be reached with TUS?1:18:49: The future of TUS1:27:59: A book or paper more people should read1:30:13: Something Elsa wishes she'd learnt sooner1:34:51: Advice for PhD students/postdocsPodcast linksWebsite: https://geni.us/bjks-podBlueSky: https://geni.us/pod-bskyElsa's linksWebsite: https://geni.us/fouragnan-webGoogle Scholar: https://geni.us/fouragnan-scholarBlueSky: https://geni.us/fouragnan-bskyBen's linksWebsite: https://geni.us/bjks-webGoogle Scholar: https://geni.us/bjks-scholarBlueSky: https://geni.us/bjks-bskyReferences and linksUa Pou: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ua_PouFolloni, Verhagen, Mars, Fouragnan, ... & Sallet (2019).

En este episodio exploramos a fondo el mutismo acinético, una de las manifestaciones más desconcertantes tras un daño cerebral grave. Hablamos de su base neurofisiológica, su relación con el sistema dopaminérgico y los circuitos prefronto-subcorticales, y cómo se diferencia clínicamente de otros estados de conciencia alterada. Recorremos también las opciones terapéuticas más prometedoras, desde la estimulación multisensorial y la verticalización robótica hasta técnicas de neuromodulación como la estimulación cerebral profunda, la estimulación medular o la tDCS. Un episodio técnico, narrativo y lleno de preguntas clínicas clave, pensado para quienes trabajan día a día con pacientes que aún no responden... pero que podrían hacerlo.

After the success of the Wu Tang Clans' debut album Enter the Wu Tang (36 chambers) - Method Man was the first of the clan members to get his solo debut album Tical released in 1994. Backed by songs like Bring the Pain, Release Yo' Delf and All I Need, Tical is held in high regards by Wu fans. RZA's dark and borderline grim beats, paired with Method Man's gravelly flow make this a bonafide classic.
Dans un monde où une simple pression du pouce suffit à obtenir une dose de distraction, d'approbation ou de nouveauté, un phénomène inquiétant gagne du terrain : nous ne parvenons plus à nous satisfaire des petits plaisirs du quotidien. Boire un café en terrasse, écouter les oiseaux, savourer un bon repas… Autant d'instants qui semblaient autrefois sources de satisfaction, mais qui paraissent aujourd'hui fades, voire insignifiants. En cause : l'omniprésence du digital, et son impact profond sur notre cerveau.Le chercheur en psychologie Bobby Hoffman, spécialiste de la motivation humaine, alerte depuis plusieurs années sur les effets délétères d'une récompense numérique constante. Selon lui, les technologies actuelles — réseaux sociaux, vidéos courtes, notifications — exploitent les mécanismes les plus primitifs de notre cerveau, notamment le système dopaminergique, responsable du plaisir et de la motivation. Le problème ? Ces micro-récompenses digitales arrivent à haute fréquence, souvent sans effort réel. Cela finit par "court-circuiter" notre capacité à tirer du plaisir des récompenses lentes, plus naturelles.Ce phénomène s'explique notamment par un principe fondamental en neurosciences : l'adaptation hédonique. Lorsqu'une récompense devient fréquente ou prévisible, son impact sur notre plaisir diminue. Autrement dit, plus on s'expose à des contenus stimulants — vidéos drôles, likes, scrolls sans fin — plus notre cerveau se désensibilise. Résultat : les petits plaisirs de la vie semblent moins excitants en comparaison.Selon Bobby Hoffman, cette surstimulation digitale engendre ce qu'il appelle une “insensibilisation motivationnelle”. Le cerveau, saturé de récompenses faciles, développe une forme de paresse cognitive : il devient moins enclin à rechercher des plaisirs profonds, ceux qui nécessitent un effort ou une attente, comme lire un livre, jardiner ou avoir une vraie conversation. Pire encore, cela affecte la capacité à ressentir de la gratitude ou de l'émerveillement.Les conséquences sont multiples : baisse de la concentration, frustration chronique, ennui, voire symptômes dépressifs. Car le bonheur durable se construit rarement sur des gratifications instantanées. Il repose sur des expériences riches, longues, parfois exigeantes.Comment inverser la tendance ? En réduisant l'exposition aux stimuli numériques, et en réapprenant à savourer la lenteur. Le silence, la contemplation, l'ennui même, sont des terrains fertiles pour réactiver les circuits de la dopamine “durable”. Bobby Hoffman insiste sur l'importance de “désintoxiquer” notre système de récompense, pour redécouvrir ce que signifie vraiment être satisfait.En résumé : notre cerveau n'a pas évolué pour gérer un flot continu de plaisirs faciles. Le digital nous a fait perdre le goût des choses simples. Il est temps de rééduquer notre attention… pour retrouver, enfin, le plaisir du réel. Hébergé par Acast.

Das Apallische Syndrom, auch bekannt als Wachkoma oder vegetativer Zustand, stellt eine komplexe Herausforderung für Pflege, Medizin und Angehörige dar. Charakterisiert durch den Verlust der Großhirnfunktion bei erhaltenem Hirnstamm, zeigen Betroffene einen Schlaf-Wach-Rhythmus und reflexhafte Bewegungen, während bewusstes Erleben und zielgerichtete Reaktionen fehlen. Die Diagnostik erfolgt über klinische Beobachtung und bildgebende Verfahren wie EEG oder funktionelle MRT, um den Grad der Hirnschädigung und mögliche Restbewusstseinsreaktionen zu erfassen.Pflege und Therapie sind interdisziplinär ausgerichtet und beinhalten medizinische Stabilisierung, basale Stimulation, physiotherapeutische Maßnahmen sowie die Einbindung von Angehörigen. Aktuelle Forschung zeigt, dass manche Patient:innen, die äußerlich reaktionslos erscheinen, über Restbewusstsein verfügen, was neue Ansätze der Kommunikation und Therapie ermöglicht. Innovative Technologien wie Brain-Computer-Interfaces (z. B. Neuralink) eröffnen perspektivisch Chancen, verborgene Bewusstseinsreaktionen zu erkennen und eine partielle Interaktion zu ermöglichen.

We're joined by Hongi Ngo, who developed a revolutionary technique for manipulating sleep oscillations during his PhD. Closed-loop Auditory Stimulation (CLAS), which uses bursts of pink noise which are carefully timed to a particular phase of an existing brain oscillation to either boost or dampen the target oscillation. It has been used to selectively strengthen or weaken memories, improve the immune response, reduce epileptic seizures, and even potentially to slow down age related cognitive decline.Hongi tells us how he got got the idea for CLAS, explains how it works, and tells us about some of his existing studies. He talks about combining CLAS with Targeted Memory Reactivation (TMR) and discusses the ideas for future of brain modulation methods with techniques such as transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS). Some of the key papers discussed are:Auditory closed-loop stimulation of the sleep slow oscillation enhances memory (2013)Auditory closed-loop stimulation of EEG slow oscillations strengthens sleep and signs of its immune-supportive function (2017)Thalamic spindles promote memory formation during sleep thrugh triple phase-locking of cortical, thalamic and hippocampal rhythms (2017)Examining the optimal timing for closed-loop auditory stimulation of slow-wave sleep in young and older adults (2019)Auditory stimulation during sleep suppresses spike activity in benign epilepsy with centrotemporal spikes (2021)Shaping overnight consolidation via slow-oscillation closed-loop targeted memory reactivation (2022)Check out our NaPS website to find out more about the podcast, our research and events.

My guest today is Chris Rozell, who sits in that space that connects neurotech and brain research. Chris runs the Structured Information for Precision Neuroengineering Lab at Georgia Tech University, and he was just named the inaugural director of Georgia Tech's Institute for Neuroscience, Neurotechnology, and Society. I think this is the first time on brain inspired we've discussed stimulating brains to treat mental disorders. I think. Today we talk about Chris's work establishing a biomarker from brain recordings of patients with treatment resistant depression, a specific form of depression. These are patients who have deep brain stimulation electrodes implanted in an effort to treat their depression. Chris and his team used that stimulation in conjunction with brain recordings and machine learning tools to predict how effective the treatment will be under what circumstances, and so on, to help psychiatrists better treat their patients. We'll get into the details and surrounding issues. Toward the end we also talk about Chris's unique background and path and approach, and why he thinks interdisciplinary research is so important. He's one of the most genuinely well intentioned people I've met, and I hope you're inspired by his research and his story. Structured Information for Precision Neuroengineering Lab.

Dr. Kevin J. Tracey, President and CEO of the Feinstein Institutes for Medical Research joins the podcasts to share his insights on the groundbreaking role of the vagus nerve in regulating inflammation and its implications for autoimmune diseases like rheumatoid arthritis. Dr. Tracey explains how inflammation, while essential for healing, becomes problematic when uncontrolled—leading to chronic conditions. He introduces the concept of the “inflammatory reflex,” a neural pathway through the vagus nerve that can be harnessed to modulate immune responses. The episode highlights the FDA-approved SetPoint Therapy System, a non-drug, implantable vagus nerve stimulator that offers targeted relief without immunosuppression. Dr. Tracey discusses its clinical success, safety profile, and future applications in conditions such as multiple sclerosis, PTSD, and stroke rehabilitation. The conversation emphasizes the promise of bioelectronic medicine in transforming treatment paradigms for chronic inflammatory diseases. In the podcast interview, Dr. Kevin J. Tracey disclosed that he is a co-founder of SetPoint Medical, the company behind the FDA-approved vagus nerve stimulation device for rheumatoid arthritis 1. He also stated that he serves as a consultant to the company, assisting with its development and research initiatives 1. While he clarified that he is not privy to all future plans of the company, his dual role as both a researcher and company consultant is a relevant professional disclosure for listeners, especially those considering the therapy discussed.

Today, we had the privilege of speaking with Dr. John Rolston, a leading voice at the intersection of neurosurgery, epilepsy, and brain stimulation.Dr. Rolston is an Associate Professor of Neurosurgery at Harvard Medical School and the Director of Epilepsy Surgery at Brigham and Women's Hospital. His pioneering work bridges clinical neurosurgery and computational neuroscience, focusing on how electrical stimulation can modulate dysfunctional brain networks to treat epilepsy, movement disorders, and disorders of consciousness.In this episode, we explored the complexities of neuromodulation—what makes stimulation effective, why patient-specific targeting matters, and how brain states influence therapeutic outcomes. Dr. Rolston also shared his lab's work on traveling waves in the brain and how these insights are transforming seizure localization and surgical decision-making. From closed-loop stimulation to stem cell therapy for Parkinson's disease, Dr. Rolston walks us through the evolving landscape of functional neurosurgery and its future.
Joel Smith speaks on 12 reasons why athletes and coaches may hit a plateau in their performance programs. These include: 1. Lack of stimulation in the training environment 2. Too much stimulation in the training environment 3. Not enough creativity or novelty 4. Lack of a clear plan 5. Too much weightlifting 6. Not enough weightlifting 7. Monotony from failing to wave training loads 8. A lack of representative play and exploration 9. Deficits in skill learning 10. Programs that feel too constricting 11. Athletes not feeling truly seen or heard 12. Gaps in belief and motivation In this episode, we'll unpack these elements one by one, while also exploring practical methods coaches and athletes can use to break through these plateaus and unlock new levels of performance. Today's episode is brought to you by Hammer Strength. View more podcast episodes at the podcast homepage.

Too many repetitive drills and static formats dull the nervous system and the mind. What to try: Use small-sided games or reactive drills to increase decision density. Rotate training environments or sensory constraints to create novelty. Avoid overly choreographed warmups—build something they have to solve. Too Much Stimulation in the Training Environment – [3:18] Overloading athletes with chaos, cues, or novelty can backfire. When there's too much going on, meaningful adaptation slows down. What to try: Balance open tasks with periods of focused repetition. Simplify instructions—set the environment, then observe. Know when to back off and give space for consolidation. Not Enough Creativity or Novelty – [6:00] Without moments of surprise or exploration, athletes stop learning. Creativity sparks engagement—and often, better movement solutions. What to try: Add odd objects, uneven surfaces, or unconventional constraints. Give athletes freedom within drills to explore variations. Don't aim for perfect reps—aim for meaningful reps. Lack of a Clear Plan – [7:36] Randomness without progression can feel chaotic. Athletes need to see where training is going—even if it's nonlinear. What to try: Cycle phases between creative exposure and focused refinement. Revisit key themes and skills, even in exploratory training. Share your intent—clarity builds trust. Too Much Weightlifting – [10:20] Lifting can become a crutch when it overshadows movement quality or reduces time for skill and game-speed work. What to try: Trim down barbell volume in favor of transfer-driven tasks. Use loaded movements that keep athletes grounded and aware. Ask: Is this lift enhancing or muting athleticism? Not Enough Weightlifting – [12:12] Some environments undervalue lifting altogether, leading to gaps in tissue tolerance and general strength. What to try: Use tempo and iso-based lifts to build coordination and robustness. Make lifting complementary, not competitive, with field work. Keep it simple—progressive resistance is still powerful when done well. Monotony from Failing to Wave Training Loads – [13:44]
If you're anything like us you always want to do everything possible to help your neuro patients recover and improve as much as possible. On today's show host Erin Gallardo, PT, DPT, NCS interviews Rose Tilton, OTR/L, OTD about an intervention that she took straight from the research to the clinic: spinal cord stimulation with transcutaneous stimulation. After learning about its applicability in the literature Rose was eager to use it with her patients but hit some road blocks. Finally she was in touch with the authors of a study who helped her and her colleagues become trained in using transcutaneous spinal stimulation on people with spinal cord injury. The clinicians found the intervention was not only simple to do but also very effective for maximizing outcomes in upper extremity rehab, lower extremity rehab, trunk control for balance, bowel and bladder and even sexual function. In today's episode Rose breaks down exactly what you need to know in order to start using this intervention with your patients today using equipment you already have! Gain clinical insights that will spark your curiosity to learn more in this episode. While you'll learn exactly what to do, best practice dictates that you do additional research to ensure you have competency and clearance from your clinical state practice act to perform this intervention. Rose encourages therapists to stay curious, reach out to researchers, and be proactive in exploring new interventions that could transform patient outcomes.

Your support helps us bring valuable conversations like this one to a wider audience. Today I sit down with Martijn Arns, a biological psychologist at the forefront of applied neuroscience, to discuss the advancements and challenges in psychiatry. We delve into his pioneering research on brain biomarkers, the promising applications of brain stimulation techniques like Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS), and how lifestyle factors may influence conditions such as ADHD. Martijn also shares cutting-edge insights into the role of heart-brain coupling and the potential impact of psychedelics in mental health treatment, offering a glimpse into the future of personalised and stratified psychiatry. What You'll Learn: Understanding Biological vs. Clinical Psychology: Martijn explains the focus of biological psychology in studying brain activity rather than engaging in traditional talk therapy. The Role of Biomarkers in Psychiatry: Discover the challenges of seeking biological signatures for psychiatric conditions. Understand why a biomarker-driven psychiatry might be theoretically impossible due to clinical impairment and situational variables. Innovations in Brain Stimulation: Explore the mechanisms and applications of TMS for treating depression and other psychiatric disorders. Learn about the groundbreaking use of heart rate to optimise TMS targeting, enhancing treatment effectiveness. Lifestyle Factors and ADHD: Understand the significant role sleep and sunlight exposure play in ADHD symptoms. Consider the implications of lifestyle interventions in managing and reducing ADHD diagnoses. The Exciting Future of Psychiatric Treatments: Dive into how psychedelics might transform therapeutic approaches with their profound effects in combination with therapy. Reflect on the potential shift from daily medication to periodic brain stimulation treatments. Key Takeaways: Psychiatry is evolving, with innovations in neuroscience paving the way for more personalised and effective treatments. There's a growing recognition of the importance of lifestyle factors, like sleep and sunlight exposure, in influencing mental health conditions, especially ADHD. Advancements like TMS offer hope, showing potential even where conventional treatments have failed. Future therapies may focus more on brain stimulation and targeted interventions rather than a one-size-fits-all medication approach.

We're watching it happen in real time: children who are overstimulated, underdeveloped, and cut off from the real-world experiences that shape a full, vibrant life. In this groundbreaking conversation, Dr. Nicholas Kardaras—addiction expert and bestselling author of Glow Kids—returns to the podcast alongside Andrew Laubacher, executive director of Humanality. Together, they expose the modern epidemic of screen dependence, explore its spiritual and neurological toll, and explain why childhood itself is being disrupted at the deepest levels. But this isn't just a diagnosis—it's a roadmap out. Andrew shares his journey of trading viral fame for a flip phone and true freedom, and how Humanality is helping young adults and families reclaim creativity, community, and resilience. Dr. Kardaras offers a stark warning about AI, influencer culture, and tech's sedative effect on society—but also gives hope that we can still turn the tide. If you've ever wondered whether we're doing enough to protect our kids, this episode will shake you—and empower you. ** Books mentioned in this episode: Glow Kids by Dr. Nicholas Kardaras Digital Madness by Dr. Nicholas Kardaras Generation AI by Matt Britton Amusing Ourselves to Death by Neil Postman The Disappearance of Childhood by Neil Postman The Shallows by Nicholas Carr Slow Productivity by Cal Newport Careless People by Sarah Churchwell Learn more about your ad choices.

Over Stimulation Is The Leading Cause of Mental Illness Worldwide
We expose the evils hiding in darkness not to persecute, but to heal. Our silence can suppress fraud detection forever. You are not alone, plus, you're awake. Many people are not who they say they are. Here's how everyone got hoodwinked. Strategies are distractions. The ballot wasn't the fraud. They manage perception while avoiding the truth. Belief is nothing if you won't kneel to the algo's. The CIA funneled Lindell's money. While the theater burns, popcorn still gets sold. They sponsored the revolution, packaged it, and sold it back to us. They let you chase ballots to avoid looking at machine algos. The real warriors were never in the room. Mike Lindell is being tested. The machine grows stronger when it's unchallenged. Instinct is catching up to evidence. Under educated people are the worst. Orchestrated bad events are incoming. Controlled opposition is a pressure valve. Every new psyop is a death rattle of the system. They fear the quiet thinkers who are disobedient. This final act shows a lack of money, secrets and time. We're being pulled in all directions, by design. Being re-routed to irrelevance. Asking the right questions is huge. Don't be fooled. People are often trapped using emotional distractions dressed as deliverance.
Get your try anxiety recovry journey started at https://www.TheAnxietyGuy.comToday. Podcast description: In this episode of The Anxiety Guy Podcast, Dennis gets real about something so many of us feel but rarely understand: the restless need for constant stimulation and why stillness feels almost impossible when your nervous system is dysregulated. If you find yourself bouncing from symptom to symptom, app to app, or thought to thought—this conversation is for you. Dennis breaks down how years of anxiety, stress, and survival mode train your body to stay on high alert, and why that constant buzz isn't who you are it's just who you learned to be. You'll learn how to stop treating your symptoms like emergencies, how to stop fearing every sensation, and how to finally come back to yourself without needing perfect conditions. Through personal insights and practical tools from The Middle Way (the next book), Dennis shows how healing begins not when everything calms down, but when you stop fighting your experience.

What if everything you've learned about pranayama tells only half the story?In this episode, Jason Crandell breaks down the two radically different approaches to pranayama found in traditional Hatha Yoga and Patanjali's Raja Yoga. These lineages share a goal—liberation through practice—but their breathwork techniques, underlying philosophies, and mechanisms of transformation couldn't be more different.Whether you're a yoga teacher, a teacher-in-training, or a student curious about the deeper roots of breathwork, this talk will help you understand: • Why pranayama in the Hatha Yoga tradition focuses on energy, purification, and awakening Kundalini • Why Patanjali's approach to pranayama emphasizes stillness, subtlety, and inner quiet • How each tradition views the purpose of pranayama in relation to the mind, body, and spirit • What these differences mean for your breathwork practice and teaching todayThis lecture is excerpted from Jason's online Pranayama Teacher Training, a comprehensive course that combines modern science and traditional wisdom to help yoga teachers build confidence in teaching breathwork.
