Hey Mama friend, You know what's stressful most Christmases?? Gift giving!! But does it have to be?? I did an amazing episode with author, Jenna Michael last year- Check out episode #125 if you are feeling that stress. Now the reason it can be stressful is because when we are in high pressure situations- the deadline of Christmas day- we go into autopilot. These are our natural ways to function for our nervous system to protect and keep our bodies safe. BUT- just because it's natural, doesn't mean it's GOOD. I want to talk about the 4 ways anxiety shows up in a very busy season- like Christmas and what to do about it. So today, I'm going to help you identify YOUR specific autopilot anxiety response, and then I'm going to give you five practical ways to disrupt it and respond better—even in the middle of the Christmas crazy. In this episode: The 4 autopilot anxiety responses: conflict, distance, over/under-functioning, projection 5 steps to disrupt your anxiety patterns The Know/Do prayer framework The Courageous Faith Method How to honor your word through the 4-step integrity process Resources mentioned: The Bold Blueprint 6-month group coaching program Instagram: @theshanwright Email: hello@theshanwright.com Want more?

Collapse and Loss of Literacy in the Aegean: Colleague Eric Cline revisits the demise of the Minoans and Mycenaeans, comparing their state to a tree that appears solid but is rotted inside, collapsing when stressed by environmental factors; the segment emphasizes the total disintegration of their palatial economy and culture, noting that unlike other regions where administration continued, the Greeks lost their ability to write for centuries, with the transition from the Bronze Age Wanax to the Iron Age Basileus reflecting a complete restructuring of society. 1959
Hey Mama, Living in a world affected by sin means grief and loss is inevitable. As busy moms, we often do not allow ourselves time or space to properly grieve. Sometimes it is the demands of our current season of life, and other times we simply do not want to re-live moments we wish we could forget. Whether you are grieving the loss of a loved one, the loss of a season of life, or grieving the effects of sin in this world generally, I want to encourage you to seek the source of true peace. The brokenness that sin creates is the reason Christ came to pay the ultimate price for all sin on the cross, and then rise in victory over death in his resurrection. So how do you grieve during the holiday season when everyone expects you to feel merry and bright?Remember, it's okay to be sad on Christmas, and join me today as we re-visit 3 realities of grief, plus 3 ways to get through them. For His Glory, Christen I would love to hear from you! >>Leave a Review >>Connect with me: Sign Up for Manage In The Moment Coaching Call: https://bit.ly/ManageStressInTheMoment Email me : naturalwellnessforbusymoms@gmail.com Sign Up to Become an Insider: https://bit.ly/naturalwellnessinsider Join Our FREE Facebook Community:https://www.facebook.com/groups/1789472588229094 >>Find Related Products Here: https://bit.ly/m/Natural-Wellness-for-Busy-Moms >> These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration.

In this Hot Seat Coaching episode of the Midlife Business Academy, Lori talks with Dr. Adriana Krywiat, former foot and ankle surgeon turned functional medicine and emotional root-cause specialist. Adriana shares how she moved from Western medicine into functional medicine, and then into deep emotional work that ties together health, money, and relationships. They explore the type of client Adriana works best with: driven, intuitive business people - often men and high-achieving women - who are outwardly successful but feel stuck, stressed, and under constant pressure. Lori helps her clarify who she does not work with as well, including those only seeking lab-driven hormone fixes without touching emotions. Together they discuss Adriana's four-step Ripple Effect Process: identifying hidden resistance, clearing it through a guided process, energetic "sweeping" work, and creating a personalized action plan. Lori then shows how this framework can drive all of Adriana's marketing, from social media content to simple, video-based lead magnets and stronger calls to action. If you're a midlife entrepreneur who feels like you are doing all the right things but still not seeing results - and your stress is leaking into your health and relationships - this conversation gives you both language and structure for what might really be going on under the surface. Key takeaways: Why health, money, relationships, and business are deeply connected at the emotional level The common symptoms of Adriana's ideal clients: stress, overwhelm, stomach issues, pressure to "hold everything up," and turning to alcohol or other coping mechanisms How to narrow an ideal client without excluding others who resonate with the message The four-step Ripple Effect Process and how it creates change across every area of life How to turn a transformation framework into social media content, calls to action, and a simple video-based lead magnet Why marketing to the symptoms of the problem helps prospects recognize themselves faster If you want coaching on your own messaging, marketing, or hot seat around your business, apply for a Hot Seat Coaching session with Lori at MyCoachLori.com

Take The Rich Mind Assessment today - https://www.richmind.co In this Thanksgiving episode of the Rich Mind Podcast, Randy challenges the traditional narrative of forced gratitude during the holidays. He argues that for many stressed high-achievers, standard gratitude lists feel like a chore or a way to bypass real pain, rather than a path to peace. Randy introduces a game-changing concept called "The GAP"—the split second between a trigger (like a stressful email or a family comment) and your reaction to it. This episode explains why your brain's autopilot is programmed for survival, not gratitude, making it impossible to feel grateful when your "GAP" is narrow. You will learn a practical, 5-second technique to widen The GAP during holiday stress, allowing you to pause, move from reactive to conscious, and choose your response. Finally, Randy makes a major announcement about an upcoming podcast series, The GAP Thinking Framework, designed to help you master this space and design the life you desire. Key Takeaways: Forced Gratitude is a Trap: Forcing yourself to list things you're grateful for when you're overwhelmed often feels fake and can be another source of stress for high-achievers. Defining "The GAP": The GAP is the crucial split-second of space between a stimulus (a trigger) and your automatic reaction to it. Reactive vs. Conscious: A narrow GAP keeps you in survival mode (reactive). Widening The GAP allows you to pause and choose your response (conscious). The 5-Second Holiday Pause: A practical tool for Thanksgiving weekend: when triggered, pause for five seconds and simply notice the reaction without trying to fix it. True Gratitude: Real appreciation isn't just a morning list; it's the ability to stand in the middle of a challenge, widen The GAP, and choose to see the lesson rather than just the pain. Questions Answered in This Episode: Why does practicing gratitude feel so difficult when I'm stressed? What is "The GAP" between stimulus and response? How can I stop reacting impulsively to triggers during the holidays? Why do high-achievers often struggle with standard mindfulness practices? What is the first step to moving from reactive living to conscious design? Key People, Concepts, & Terms: People: Randy Wilson. Concepts: The GAP, Gratitude Trap, Reactive vs. Conscious Mind, High-Achiever Stress, Holiday Triggers, The 5-Second Pause, GAP Thinking Framework, Mindset Shift.

Lorenzo Fiori reports that climate change is threatening Italian food production, particularly cheese, due to drought and heat waves in the south, especially the Puglia region, where stressed cows are reducing milk production and impacting specialty cheeses like mozzarella and burrata. Milk cannot be shipped from the north because local water and hay are essential to the unique flavor of southern cheese. Fiori emphasizes that Italian food is a famous brand precisely because it belongs to its territory, criticizing pre-prepared sauces found in Brussels as inauthentic carbonara, which must be made fresh.

What causes stress are the views you take of the event." - Dr. Ellen LangerPicture this: A fire destroys 80% of everything you own. Your response? "It was already gone. What was the point in getting crazy over it?" That's Dr. Ellen Langer, a Harvard psychology professor whose work on mindfulness has shaped how we understand stress and human potential. When the insurance adjuster showed up after her house burned down, he told her it was the first time in 25 years someone's reaction was calmer than the actual damage warranted. Most people catastrophize before they even see the extent of the loss. Ellen did the opposite. She immediately saw those burnt possessions as artifacts of her past, things she might not even choose again if she were starting fresh today. Then something happened on Christmas Eve that she couldn't have predicted: the hotel staff where she was staying, from the parking attendants to the chambermaids, filled her room with gifts. Not management. Not the owner. The people you barely notice. For years, she couldn't tell that story without crying.What makes this conversation so powerful is watching someone live their philosophy in real time. Ellen doesn't just theorize about stress, she's walked through actual loss and come out believing that worrying is simply a waste of time. She breaks down why predictability is an illusion we cling to, why most of what we worry about never happens, and how stress relies on two false assumptions: that we know what will happen, and that when it does, it will be awful. The conversation moves from handling global crises to personal disasters, from the things that keep us up at night to the moments that restore our faith in humanity. You'll hear about the class she taught without any of her notes after they burned in the fire, how it became the best class she ever taught because everything had to be thought through fresh in that moment. This isn't about positive thinking or pretending bad things don't happen. This is about what becomes possible when you stop trying to control outcomes you can't predict anyway.RetrySign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Researchers from Liverpool John Moores University found that drinking less than 1.5 liters of water daily raised stress hormones by 50%, suggesting that dehydration can add to your stress load When you're dehydrated, hormones like vasopressin quietly kick in, signaling stress and triggering cortisol Signs of dehydration go beyond thirst. Fatigue, headaches, sugar cravings, and dry skin are your body's early warning signs that it's running low on water and energy It's also possible to drink too much water. Overhydrating dilutes minerals like sodium, causing fatigue, confusion, or nausea Aside from drinking when you're thirsty, you can stay hydrated by consuming water-rich foods like watermelon. Adding a pinch of salt and a splash of lemon or organic juice to plain water helps improve electrolyte absorption

It might be time to really think about what you've typically done in the past and what you want for your future. There's a famous quote that says - "Most people overestimate what they can do in a year and underestimate what they can do in ten years"After 20+ years of coaching people, I've developed my own version of this quote . . . "We overestimate what we can do in a month and vastly underestimate what we can do in a year." We live in a super fast world. Unfortunately that's led to most of us being pretty impatient.When you're living in a body that doesn't FEEL good ...Or your body doesn't LOOK how you want ... Or your health is suffering ... Then we're really not patient! We want to fix it now! Give me a 4 week program to knock this out. I get it. I'm not necessarily a shining example of patience myself. However, when it comes to losing weight, keeping it off, and creating the life and health you really want … that takes longer than one month.In today's episode, we're talking about true weight loss transformation - what it looks like, sounds like, and a realistic timeline.

If you feel like you spend most of your day on edge — not totally panicked, but not exactly calm either — you're not alone. Most of us live in what meditation teacher Dr. Christiane Wolf calls "yellow mode": a state of low-level vigilance that keeps us productive, but also keeps us anxious, reactive, and exhausted. In this conversation with DJ Cashmere, Christiane unpacks why our nervous systems get stuck in that yellow zone and what we can actually do to shift back into "green mode" — the state of calm alertness where we feel grounded, flexible, and capable of joy. They explore: Why our modern lives constantly trigger fight-or-flight The difference between "being chill" and being appropriately responsive Simple, science-backed ways to calm your nervous system in seconds How trauma and early conditioning make relaxation feel unsafe The role of community (sangha), right livelihood, and mindfulness in long-term regulation Christiane is our Teacher of the Month at DanHarris.com, where she's creating guided meditations to go along with many of our podcast episodes.

***JOIN THE NEXT MASTER YOUR FASTING CHALLENGE THAT STARTS November 19th, 2025!*** We'll GUIDE you on how to FAST to LOSE FAT for good, and use ‘fast cycling' to achieve uncommon results! REGISTER HERE! Click the link for DATES, DETAILS, and FAQs! In today's comprehensive episode, Dr. Scott Watier and Tommy Welling tackle the number one barrier to fasting success by demystifying hunger as a trainable physiological response rather than an insurmountable obstacle, explaining the complex interplay between ghrelin (the hunger hormone) and leptin (the fullness signal) and how consistent fasting actually reduces hunger intensity over time. They introduce the powerful "HALT the BS" framework for identifying whether you're truly hungry or responding to being Happy, Angry, Lonely, Tired, Bored, or Stressed—revealing how 50% of dopamine is produced in the gut and why emotional eating stems from dopamine deficits rather than actual nutritional needs. The hosts break down how food choices dramatically impact hunger waves, explaining why ultra-processed foods increase consumption by 17 calories per minute and create blood sugar crashes that trigger false hunger signals, while protein-prioritized meals with healthy fats naturally suppress appetite through the same GLP-1 mechanisms that weight loss medications artificially stimulate. They provide actionable strategies for managing hunger including optimal salt supplementation timing, the hunger-satiety scale for objective assessment, and why poor sleep can lower leptin levels by 17% while simultaneously increasing ghrelin and insulin resistance. This episode delivers a complete toolkit for reframing hunger as something to ride out like a wave rather than fight against, making fasting sustainable and even easier over time through proper preparation, strategic meal composition, and lifestyle optimization.
