 An important password:“Listen to Your Own Inner Wisdom. You are the Key to Your Own Life. Time to Speak the Truth”This powerful Full Moon in Sagittarius, May 31st/June 1st is really the illuminator of this “your re-storying"  your unique Dream”.  This lunar cycle presents  a dynamic opportunity to take a real look at the ideas, thoughts and experiences that came forth during the Full Moon in Scorpio that happened at the beginning of May.This Moon offers both inner focus, and the opportunity to experience worldly experiences through connection to Cosmic Source. Guidance through trusting intuitive insights from the well of personal inspiration is the key for moving toward greater and higher vibrational consciousness.During this lunar cycle, the awareness of growth, expansion, plenty, and abundance are under major consideration.  Even as we look out into the collective society, it's absolutely critical to dream one's own big dreams. What thoughts and dreams have been moving back and forward through your mind during this time?  The notable aspect of this lunar cycle emphasizes  concepts of greater self  expansion, exploration, new perspective through inner awareness and spiritual renewal.With this Full Moon, Jupiter  the planet of expansion, is having a conversation   somewhere in your “Star Map”.  Sagittarius is the sign of fiery and inspired direction. This sign brings a feeling of joy and adventure when you choose confidence, courage, and deep self-belief.  Taking the chance to step out, and “Lucky” Jupiter will pave your way.During this Full Moon you are gaining an energetic boost, and  being called upon to take action on something you've dreamed about during the Sun in Gemini idea generating stage.  With this  Full Moon as it illuminates the pathway.   Jupiter is calling for expansion in a particular area of your life, so it is time to activate and actualize those dreams.  Interestingly enough, this Moon really supports forward motion.  Sagittarius is not a sign for looking back into the past.  In some ways, this sign embodies the "Fool" card in the Tarot.  The character in the card is definitely looking ahead, and standing ready to see what's over the horizon and next mountain.With Sagittarius energy, you have deep support to step fully into taking your vision, intention, desire or dream. What's most important thing is to belief in what you are choosing, which will offer the momentum for moving forward in your life.  So, here it is Full Moon in Sagittarius, and all the planetary players are whispering that it's time for things to change  The combination of the Moon and Jupiter is release with the lunar cycle of the full moon,  and expansion through Jupiter signaling change and a focused on forward motion.I want to give recognition to the powerful supportive energies of Neptune and Saturn both being in the sign of Aries. The fiery energy of the other elemental fire sign is giving this rare "Blue Moon" added impetus. The air elemental of Gemini is important in providing a way for the ideas to be dispersed into the personal and collective consciousness. If you reflect on these signs (air, Gemini idea, with fire action of moving forward with Sagittarius), there is a completeness in understanding how thoughts become "things".So it's time to not only dream, the question is, how will your dream become reality and move your life in the direction you really want to go? Seeking new horizons through study and travelThe sign of Sagittarius represents the areas of life where the deepest beliefs about life are being questioned. The first stage in this questioning process is highlighted by what, and how much an individual believes in self?This lunar cycle is aligned with assessing the experience of inner self worth and how it is lived in daily life expression. Sagittarius  is the sign that is always on a quest to understand what can be called the “higher mind”.  Studies of a spiritual nature, through higher education, publishing, exploring other cultures are the ways in which the Sagittarian individual grows in Soul reconnection, emotional depth and life awareness. Trusting Your Own Voice of TruthAlong with Libra and Scorpio, Sagittarius is a relationship sign. It operates by seeing others as part of a collective consciousness. The impetus of this sign is to interact, to teach, to promote and to bring knowledge about truth, freedom, justice, equality, and spiritual insights to the group experience.  Wherever Sagittarius energy is positioned within a chart, there's a need to share knowledge and wisdom about the Universal Source that is supporting all aspects of life.  Sagittarius is a mutable sign, meaning that it thrives by interacting and communicating deep philosophical and spiritual topics. What is most important in understanding and using the wisdom of this sign, is the absolute requirement to embrace positive beliefs and values of integrity, truth, honesty and freedom for everyone. The Power and Path of Possibility Thinking with SagittariusEach of us carries a collection of inner subconscious programs that are associated with every experience we've ever encountered. Sagittarius is the sign that requires us to go into the significant areas of our lives, and examine the negative beliefs, “shadow” thoughts or low- level vibrational consciousness, where there's judgmentalness, prejudice, and narrow-mindedness about others.Sagittarius has the ability to see and operate from the “big picture experience''. An example of an individual with Moon in Sagittarius, is the cultural icon, Oprah.   By studying her life trajectory, she reveals how the Sagittarian energy is activated through the deep belief that what is invisible can become visible. Sagittarius is a sign that taps the “higher intelligence” through what is known as the “Third Eye”.  The symbol of this sign as half horse with a bow and arrow, deals with piercing the “veil” and seeing beyond the 3 D plane of matter and limitation. The Sagittarius Superpower is “Taking a Leap Of Faith”As a mutable sign, Sagittarius symbolizes the ability to trust,  take physical and emotional risks that life is always supported by Universal or Infinite Source. This sign specializes in searching for and moving toward greater horizons.Looking inward and gaining an understanding of what is meaningful and worthwhile is essential. In this sign the relating principle is seen in desiring to merge with the many experiences encountered on the archetypal “quest” and journeying through life.Mutable signs and planets are the Communicators and Seekers of the ZodiacSagittarius/Gemini depict the archetypes of the “Teacher and Student”.  These signs are associated with both adventure on the earth plane, as well as stepping into the inner and subjective experiences of life.Sagittarius is the sign that brings buoyancy, open hearted- optimism, confidence and courage to interactions and encounters with others. With this sign, there is much complexity because what appears to be obvious often has many layers of meaning, and has to be unraveled through intuitive reflections.Sagittarius is masculine fire sign, meaning that it inspires action, and has a need for direct experiencing of life. Wherever this sign is positioned in the chart is an indicator of the need for deep involvement in a specific area or arena of life.Even though Sagittarius is a fire sign, it has a kinship with the water sign Pisces.  They  both possess a shared awareness of what it means to have “faith” in living life from a deep Soul experience.   Let's have an Astrology Conversation.  I look forward to seeing you.  Now is the time.https://www.soulsoundinsights.com/light-reading.htmlhttps://www.soulsoundinsights.com/music-musings-meditation.htmlI am proud to announce my new offering as a Certified Creative Depth Coach.  As a Creative Depth Coach, I provide guidance, support and soul insights on how to discover, explore and navigate your life by  recognizing your magnificent "Creative Genius".

“Take out the trash. This is the fourth time I've told you,” you tell your son. Your son says “What? I didn't hear you.” Here's a fact that may not surprise you:  boys are biologically wired to be bad listeners. Studies have found that, when a boy and girl hear the same sound, the boy will hear it 10 times quieter than the girl will.  This is especially true if it's a high frequency sound, like a woman's voice. Since 78% of teachers are female, it's no wonder that boys are falling behind girls academically. So what can we do as parents? Give our boys grace. Explore alternative learning styles. And yes, we may need to ask several times for the trash to get taken out. For more ideas on raising boys to be godly men, visit Trail Life USA or RaisingGodlyBoys.com.

Rapamycin may be able to help older adults live longer, healthier lives. Studies of mice suggest the drug may even reverse hardening of the arteries. Researchers at UT Health San Antonio have launched a clinical trial to see if the drug can restore the biological activity of older adults to levels more typical of younger people, and, if so, how much does it take to do it?

Is it too late for you to prevent dementia? Even if you have a family history of dementia there are steps you can take to lower your risks. You know it's important to train your physical body, but are you training your brain? It's possible to improve your cognitive ability as you age. And what's good for the brain is good for keeping away unwanted belly fat. Lifestyle is crucial: dietary patterns, movement, sleep, social connections, avoiding alcohol and tobacco, managing stress and adequate sleep play a role. It's also important to keep your blood pressure, blood sugar, cholesterol and weight under control. Correcting vision or hearing loss is important too. Speed training, or speed processing helps increase your brain's reaction time which helps maintain the ability to drive. Studies show it lengthens independence and reduces the development of dementia.  If you're ready to dive deeper into brain health, join the Healthy Looks Great on You Lab.  0:00 Introduction 0:37 Can You Improve After 65? 1:03 Brain vs. Belly: The Connection 2:46 8 Lifestyle Interventions to Prevent Dementia 3:35 Move & Dietary Patterns 5:33 Sleep, Stress & Social Connection 6:51 Know Your Numbers & Sensory Health 7:47 Speed Training for the Brain 9:25 BrainHQ & The ACTIVE Study 11:40 Call to Action & Final Challenge

WarRoom Battleground EP 1019: Four Studies In National Betrayal From Around Europe — All Related To The Third-World INVASION

This episode is brought to you by Energy Bits. Most people are exhausted, inflamed, undernourished, and aging faster than they should be—and the modern food system is making it worse. While supplements promise quick fixes, few address the real root cause of chronic disease: mitochondrial dysfunction, oxidative stress, nutrient depletion, and inflammation at the cellular level. In this conversation, algae nutrition pioneer Catharine Arnston breaks down the shocking science behind spirulina and chlorella, why NASA compared algae nutrition to "1,000 grams of vegetables," and how these compounds may support brain health, cardiovascular function, detoxification, gut health, fertility, metabolic health, and longevity. Chase and Catharine also dive into ATP production, oxidative stress, serotonin, men's health, women's health, detoxification, inflammation, and why algae could become one of the most important functional foods of the next decade.

What did Paul REALLY mean in 1 Corinthians 7? In this eye-opening study, Gary explores the historical context behind Paul's teachings on marriage, submission, singleness, and Christian freedom in the middle of pagan Roman culture. Understanding the world of Corinth changes everything about how these verses should be read today.

In this conversation, I sat down with Kim Jenkins from Empowering Speech Services (https://www.empoweringspeechservices.com/meet-kim)  to talk about how she's used the frameworks from Language Therapy Advance Foundations (https://drkarenspeech.com/languagetherapy/)  along with the gestalt language processing stages, for reluctant readers, and AAC users. We also talk about how important it is for clinicians to think flexibly with how they apply frameworks in therapy so they can pull from multiple sources to come up with their own personal protocols that work for their caseload. We also chat about other topics such as what “alter ego” we want to emulate when we're going through a challenge, social media strategies and mindset, our dogs, and how to draw parallels between language therapy, clinical practice, fitness, tips for learning how to do pull-ups, and other areas of life. Kim Jenkins is a neurodiversity-affirming speech therapist who is passionate about helping neurodivergent children and their families flourish.  Empowering Speech Services was built on the idea that authentic and meaningful communication can be achieved by focusing on a child's strengths, meeting their sensory needs, following their lead, and empowering family members in the process. Serving the Milton and Alpharetta areas of Georgia, she takes the time to truly get to know her clients, their joys, interests, unique strengths, and individual challenges. In this conversation, we discuss:✅ How Kim uses semantic features and syntactic study with AAC users✅ Using the “Essential 5” framework from Language Therapy Advance Foundations with students who use a lot of scripting and gestalts✅ Engaging a reluctant reader literacy and vocabulary work✅ Parallels between life, language therapy, fitness, and social media marketingLearn more about Kim's private practice on her website here: https://www.empoweringspeechservices.com/Visit her on TikTok here: https://www.tiktok.com/@empoweringspeechservices@UCSeGnUyaf6NBHJFBuoUFUTA Visit her on Instagram @empoweringspeechservicesConnect with her on LinkedIn here: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kimberly-jenkins-a0288796/Check out her TeachersPayTeachers store here: https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/store/empowering-speech-servicesI mentioned the following previous De Facto Leaders Podcast interviews:EP 205: Using the Essential 5 to Build Vocabulary and Syntax in Secondary School (with Amy Baugh) here: https://drkarendudekbrannan.com/ep-205-using-the-essential-5-to-build-vocabulary-and-syntax-in-secondary-school-with-amy-baugh/EP 140: Creating an Intentional Career and Life with Alter Egos (with Meg Niman) here: https://drkarendudekbrannan.com/ep-140-creating-an-intentional-career-and-life-with-alter-egos-with-meg-niman/EP 154: Therapy Session Structure, Narrative Language, and Commentary on Gestalt Language Processing here: https://drkarendudekbrannan.com/ep-154-therapy-session-structure-narrative-language-and-commentary-on-gestalt-language-processing/Also mentioned in this episode:”Stories that Stick” by Kindra Hall here: https://www.storiesthatstick.com/Sarah Brashears from Social Mogules: @socialmogulsIn this episode, I mentioned Language Therapy Advance Foundations, my program that gives speech pathologists a scalable framework for building language skills needed to thrive in school, social situations, and daily life.

Most of the mushroom supplements you'll find on Amazon are ground-up fruiting bodies or myceliated grain in a capsule. AHCC is something entirely different. It's a patented fermented extract from shiitake mycelia that has been used in over 1,000 cancer clinics worldwide, backed by more than 100 published studies, and studied specifically for its effects on natural killer cells, HPV clearance, autoimmune conditions, and liver disease. I'd never heard of it until Mimi Lindquist introduced me to it. Lindquist is the co-founder of The Medicine alongside her husband, Chase. She started as a clinical dental hygienist in Seattle, where she observed firsthand how oral health mirrors systemic health, and eventually followed a thread from a patient's HPV recovery all the way to a research compound developed at the University of Tokyo in 1986. In this episode, Lindquist explains what AHCC actually is, how its manufacturing process makes it fundamentally different from any other mushroom product on the market, and why the clinical research behind it is unusually robust for a supplement. The mechanism that makes AHCC interesting is that it doesn't just boost the immune system indiscriminately. It modulates it. For healthy individuals with normal NK cell counts, it doesn't artificially raise them. For people dealing with HPV, cancerous tumors, or autoimmune conditions where the immune system needs more information, it does. This adaptogenic quality is why AHCC can support both an overactive immune response (as in autoimmune) and an underactive one (as in immune suppression from chronic illness or aging) without contradicting itself. I pushed back on this in the conversation because AHCC is a processed product that requires industrial manufacturing to produce, which doesn't fit neatly into an ancestral framework. Lindquist's response was honest: if we were living 100 years ago without microplastics, glyphosate in the rain, and the chronic stress loads of modern life, we probably wouldn't need it. But that's not the world we live in, and the thousands of testimonials she's received from people who had tried everything else and found relief with AHCC are hard to dismiss. Dosing is two capsules daily for general immune support, four for conditions like HPV, Lyme, or autoimmune, and six to eight for serious situations like tumors or advanced liver disease. Their product, Immune Intel AHCC, uses 750 milligrams per capsule with nothing else added. About Mimi Lindquist:  Meagan (Mimi) Lindquist is the co-founder of The Medicin, alongside her husband Chase. With her background as a clinical dental hygienist, culinary nutrition guide, and AHCC educator, she has been helping others prevent disease for over 12 years. Now, Mimi has dedicated herself entirely to sharing the benefits of Immune Intel AHCC, a mushroom supplement unlike any other, to as many people as possible.

Dr. Christine Bishara, gut health physician, founder of From Within Medical in New York City, and author of The Gut Revolution, joins Dr. Tara Perry for a live Q&A exploring the science of the gut-brain connection and what most people are getting wrong about healing from the inside out.Dr. Bishara draws on her personal journey, losing over 70 pounds as a teenager through food, intermittent fasting, and microbiome science before most of the research even existed, to lay out a practical, back-to-basics framework for optimizing mood, metabolism, and immunity through the gut.KEY TAKEAWAYS00:00 The conscious mind processes 30 bits of information per second. The subconscious processes 40 million. Lasting healing requires reaching the elephant, not just the rider.07:39 Most Americans are eating in a way that keeps their gut in digestion mode around the clock, leaving no time for immune function or neurotransmitter production.10:04 Inflammation begins in the mouth. Oral microbiome imbalances can deposit arterial plaque directly into the heart.15:34 Serotonin requires tryptophan, an amino acid the body cannot make on its own. Mood disorders are often a nutrient deficiency problem, not just a chemistry problem.22:15 Acetylcholine controls the speed of neuronal communication. Brain fog and sluggish thinking are often tied to low healthy fat intake, not willpower.29:25 Chronic cortisol elevation keeps the body in fat storage mode. It is persistent stress, not short-term spikes, that drives chronic inflammation and disease.45:37 The biggest intermittent fasting mistakes: not eating enough fiber, fasting too long, and confusing restriction with healing. For women, prolonged fasts can backfire by triggering cortisol.54:47 Beneficial gut bacteria produce postbiotics that activate GLP-1 receptors naturally. You can get the satiety effect without medication, just eat the vegetables first.58:13 Children who had high levels of bifidobacteria were largely protected from severe COVID outcomes. Bifidobacteria, which thrive on plant fiber, is the single most important bacteria in the microbiome.01:00:26 Studies show meditation and prayer increase lifespan by an average of five years. Heart-brain coherence directly affects immune function at the cellular level.RESOURCES MENTIONEDFrom Within Medical — Dr. Bishara's practice and free gut health starter guide (50 best foods, healthy oils, healthy sweeteners)The Gut Revolution — Dr. Bishara's book, available in print and on AudibleDr. Christine Bishara on Instagram — @dr.christinebWork with Dr. Tara PerryTune in every Wednesday for a new episode of Next Level Healing.

We basked in some amazing news before this great episode! The main topic was a breakdown of one of the most important elements of performance and health: blood volume. Studies show that blood volume can seem to act as a synonym for fitness, with one finding that 6 weeks of training gains can be reversed with a phlebotomy that returns blood volume to baseline levels. Positive adaptations can happen in a few days, and it clearly matters for performance. If any other intervention worked like that, you'd assume everyone would be talking about it all the time. But blood volume is not discussed often! We pull back the curtain on the science.We also talked about a new review article on exogenous lactate supplementation. It might be a brave new world in the next 5 years, but right now there are more questions than answers. We speculate!And this one was full of cool topics! Other topics: the shockingly good news Megan has received in recent heart tests, our disdain for the Enhanced Games, recent age group doping news, the Satisfy Circle Pit, the true GOAT of endurance, running v. biking, uphill treadmill workouts, and lots more.Yes, David actually hit himself for a joke on this episode.

Construction crews working on the wall on the U.S.-Mexico border in Arizona significantly damaged a 1,000-year-old geoglyph located in Cabeza Prieta National Wildlife Refuge. It’s one of a number of places tribes on both sides of the border say are damaged or are threatened by the fast-tracked construction process. Tribal leaders say such desecration is happening at a record pace after the Trump administration sidelined cultural and environmental barriers to construction. We'll hear from cultural historians and policy experts about that is being lost and what can be done about it.

On April 7th, at 12:30 a.m. in a massive warehouse in Ontario, California, a worker lights pallets on fire. The result? $500–$600 million in damages and a reflection of a much bigger story, one that isn't just about one individual, but about how our workplaces are failing employees. I walk through this shocking incident to uncover the systemic pressures that drive workplace rage.The truth is, this isn't isolated. From Amazon to Disney contractors, poor pay, unsafe conditions, and layers of corporate shields create a workforce that's physically present but mentally checked out. Studies show employee engagement is plummeting, confidence is collapsing, and the gap between leadership perception and reality is dangerously wide. The Kimberly-Clark fire is a symptom of a system that ignores the human cost of labor.We also explore history to understand the present. From the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire to today, patterns emerge: when workers have no voice, tensions escalate.Job loss isn't just financial, it's deeply psychological. And corporations need to act before the next flashpoint.In This Episode:- Ontario warehouse fire overview and costs- Economic and labor context driving worker anger- Gallup report: collapse in worker confidence- Disparity between CEO awareness and workforce sentiment- Historical parallel: Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire- Modern labor conditions and subcontractor complexities- Psychological impact of unemployment and layoffs- Lessons for workers and corporate leadersAnd much more!Resources:-Get Corporate-level Health Coverage for Solopreneurs with a 50% Discount for First Three Months - https://essentlcreator.com/maureen-Video of the warehouse worker setting fire - https://www.instagram.com/reels/DW5Lbj6DiRW/-Video shows someone intentionally setting fires at Ontario warehouse - https://www.nbclosangeles.com/news/local/ontario-warehouse-fire-video/3873376/-Triangle Shirtwaist Factory Fire - https://www.history.com/articles/triangle-shirtwaist-fire-Luigi Mangione Charged with the Stalking and Murder of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson - https://www.justice.gov/archives/opa/pr/luigi-mangione-charged-stalking-and-murder-unitedhealthcare-ceo-brian-thompson-and-use-‘Get back to work': Amazon faces fresh scrutiny over workplace safety record - https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2026/apr/22/amazon-workplace-safety-record-Gallup's 2026 State of the Global Workplace Report: Global Employee Engagement Continues Decline - https://www.gallup.com/workplace/708071/global-employee-engagement-continues-decline.aspx-Boston Consulting Group (BCG) Report: CEO Insomnia Index: What (and Who) Is Keeping CEOs Up at Night - https://web-assets.bcg.com/2b/7c/2484f99045e58979f1d4dfd9571d/ceo-insomnia-index-apr-2026.pdfConnect with Maureen Wiley Clough:-LinkedIn: maureenwclough - https://www.linkedin.com/in/maureenwclough/-Website: itgetslateearly.com - https://www.itgetslateearly.com/-Instagram: @maureenwclough - https://www.instagram.com/maureenwclough-YouTube: @itgetslateearly - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCGrHwk-y7ERaq7bCSjZYf1A?sub_confirmation=1Affiliate Disclaimer:Hey there!

In this episode of the Dressage Today Podcast, Stephany and Aviva interview dressage rider, upper-level eventer, mom and life-long learner Chelsea Canedy. The avid Mustang and meditation advocate talks about her debut memoir Finding Purpose: A Life Managing the Passion, Compulsion, and Borderline Addiction Called “Horses.” The book documents Chelsea's time with horses and how they've shaped the trajectory of her life and gives readers a behind-the-scenes' view of what it's like to compete at the upper levels and the inner work that sustains it. Blending raw personal stories with lessons from her decade-long meditation practice and career studying equine behavior, the lifelong horsewoman reflects on resilience, identity and the joy of choosing a life built on passion.We also talked to Chelsea about how publishing her memoir has impacted the conversation she's part of in the horse world, her beloved horses and how each is doing and many points of connection all horses lovers can relate to. This was such a fun interview; we know you'll love listening to Chelsea, too, and will likely also find many points of connection with her!In this episode, Aviva and Stephany also catch up on what's been happening in their respective horse worlds. Stephany talks about her recent venture up to WEC Ocala to compete with Dante, and Aviva is focused on avoiding the heat as much as possible as the unofficial summer kicks off.In our Ask the L segment, Aviva answers a question from listener Mary about collection and what judges expect to see at Second Level.

On this episode of Managed Care Cast, The American Journal of Managed Care® spoke with Jonathan Wrathall, PhD, a senior advanced analytics consultant at Elevance Health. He authored 2 studies published in the May 2026 issue, both of which centered on food insecurity: “Food Insecurity Identification Modeling for Medicare Enrollees Using Administrative Data” and “Making the Most of Limited Resources: Predicting Food Insecurity.” Throughout the conversation, Wrathall highlighted the motivation behind his studies, key food insecurity predictors, unexpected findings, and gaps in identifying needs across insurance groups. Before concluding, he rounded out the discussion by bringing the findings of both studies together to explain their implications for improving food insecurity detection in health systems.

The Hebrew poets didn't write safe words. They stacked image on top of image, layered metaphor on metaphor, and built texts designed to hit you in the chest. But when those words crossed into English, something got lost. The raw emotional power. The vivid word pictures. The sounds, the rhythms, the physicality of a language that was built to be felt, not just read.In this episode, Dr. Alison Gray, Director of Studies in Old Testament Language, Literature, and Theology at Westminster College, Cambridge, pulls back the curtain on what your English Bible simply cannot deliver. From the spatial drama of Psalm 18, where height means safety and narrowness means despair, to the stunning revelation that the Hebrew word for compassion literally means "wombs," this conversation exposes an entire dimension of Scripture that most believers have never encountered.In this episode you will learn:- How metaphor functions as the backbone of Hebrew poetry, not decoration but the primary vehicle of meaning- Why the spatial imagery in Psalm 18 (high vs. low, wide vs. narrow) unlocks the entire emotional architecture of the poem- What "metaphor clusters" are and how Hebrew poets deliberately piled images to overwhelm the reader- The specific emotional and theological losses that occur every time Hebrew poetry is translated into English- How the Hebrew accent marks called "taste marks" shaped the oral performance of the Psalms- Why reading Job through the lens of trauma literature makes sense of its contradictions and fragmented voices- The dangerous church tradition of sanitizing lament and why the Psalms of agony were never meant to be resolved quickly- What the British Sign Language Bible Translation Project reveals about the physicality already embedded in Hebrew Scripture- How the Hebrew word for compassion (rachmayim) literally comes from the word for womb- Why "slow to anger" in Hebrew actually means "long of nose" and what that tells us about how the ancient world pictured emotionDr. Gray's Book:Psalm 18 in Words and Pictures: A Reading Through Metaphor (Brill, 2014)https://brill.com/display/title/23722?language=enWestminster College:https://www.westminster.cam.ac.uk/academic-staff/dr-alison-grayWinter School in Ancient and Biblical Languages:https://www.westminster.cam.ac.uk/biblical-languagesBSL Bible Translation Project:https://bslbible.org.uk/Stay Connected:Website: Johnnyova.comSubscribe on Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@thejohnnyovaThe Revelation Reset: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DKSLQXWQ

What happens when ministry becomes driven more by pressure, exhaustion, and self-reliance than prayerful discernment? In this deeply practical and spiritually grounded conversation, Fr. John Riccardo joins Ron Huntley to explore surrender, leadership, discernment, and why renewal begins when leaders stop trying to control the story and “give Jesus back the pen.” If you're longing for healthier leadership, clearer discernment, and a renewed vision for mission in the Church, this episode is for you.

In 2 Corinthians 13, the Apostle Paul gives commands to believers to do things such as be of one mind and live in peace. Christian unity isn't just about getting along with others – it's walking in God's Truth together, empowered by the Holy Spirit. We can live in peace in God's church when we each give… The post Closing Commands appeared first on Calvary Chapel At The Cross.

Three new GLP-1 studies, why every food is suddenly "high protein," the Bethenny Frankel shoe drama blowing up Instagram, and why I'm on a ketamine table as you listen. Three new studies just shifted the GLP-1 conversation, and not in the direction women have been hearing about. Chalene digs into what's actually happening to muscle and bone density, why the rebound after coming off matters more than anyone's talking about, and the three questions every woman on Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, or Zepbound should bring to her next doctor's appointment. She also gets into why every grocery aisle suddenly screams "high protein," and why this whole moment is starting to feel suspiciously like the Snackwell cookie era. There's a simple protein target that works without tracking macros, and Chalene walks through how she's using it. Then she breaks down the Bethenny Frankel shoe drama that took over Instagram this week. What the shoe brand founder got wrong, what Bethenny got wrong, and the rules of brand partnerships that almost nobody outside the influencer world understands. Finally, a personal update. As you're listening to this, Chalene is on the table for another medically supervised ketamine treatment with Dr. Andrew Levinson. She shares why she went back for a third session, what the last journey taught her about control, and who this kind of work is really for.

We've been talking about this with CEO Jake Leach for a while now – it will be a 50% smaller with what they're calling advanced sensing capabilities. According to Leach, G8 will adapt to the physiologic variability of each user. It has additional technology built in, based on a new silicon chip design and algorithm. 15 day wear is now the baseline for all Dexcom sensors moving forward. At launch the G8 will only measure glucose but the plan is for a multi-analyte version to follow. That would measure ketones and potassium. Ketones we know – but potassium is very important for people with kidney and possible for people taking some diabetes meds. It's an interesting space to watch.. btw, analyte is just a medical word for the specific thing you're measuring – the target of the test you're running. we're going to hear that word a lot I think..   Looks like an FDA submission for the G8 next year.. with an outside the US launch the following year. https://www.drugdeliverybusiness.com/dexcom-unveils-next-gen-g8-cgm/ XX Glucotrack has submitted its implantable continuous blood glucose monitor (CBGM) for FDA IDE, that's investigational device exemption and would enable the company to initiate a U.S. clinical study for the fully implantable technology. Rutherford, New Jersey-based Glucotrack's device features no on-body external component. The company aims to offer it for three years of continuous, accurate blood glucose monitoring for a more convenient, less intrusive solution. Unlike traditional CGMs that measure glucose in interstitial fluid, the CBGM measures glucose levels directly from the blood. The implant goes five centimeters within the subclavian vein. Glucotrack's active implantable device has a small battery and some electronics that go just under the skin in the pectoral region. The location of the implant is not in a major vessel, but the implant can measure real-time glucose levels as pulsatile blood flows over the tip of the sensor. https://www.drugdeliverybusiness.com/glucotrack-submits-long-term-implantable-cbgm-fda-ide/ XX PharmaSens today announced the publication of data from the first clinical study evaluating its all-in-one insulin patch pump offering. The all-in-one pump pairs the Niaa Essential insulin patch pump with the SynerG continuous glucose monitor (CGM) sensor developed by Pacific Diabetes Technologies. However, this system would be one device that features both the pump and CGM technology.   PharmaSens and SiBionics also have a collaboration aimed at developing the all-in-one solution. They are jointly developing the next-generation Niia insulin patch pump with a SiBionics CGM. PharmaSens expects a second feasibility study in the second quarter to evaluate the next-generation pump with SiBionics' CGM.   PharmaSens says the clinical feasibility study of Niia demonstrated for the first time ever that the combined offering is, in fact, feasible. It believes its device addresses the need for alternatives to multi-device diabetes management. systems.   Aggregated MARD for the investigational device came in at 11.6%. A MARD target of less than 10% is considered ideal for CGM devices, but PharmaSens said that, in the context of the early feasibility study, the results were encouraging and provide evidence supporting the development of an all-in-one system. https://www.drugdeliverybusiness.com/pharmasens-efs-insulin-patch-pump-cgm/ XX   XX ViCentra launches the newest version of the Kaleido pump system in Europe. This is that small colorful pump, with Diabeloops algorithm and the Dexcom G7. It'll be in Germany and the Netherlands later this summer. https://hellokaleido.com/vicentra-announces-commercial-launch-of-new-smartphone-controlled-kaleido-automated-insulin-delivery-patch-pump-system/--   XX Diabeloop just got CE Mark approval for DBLG2 integrations – it's latest AID platform the company has kicked off the gradual European launch of the technology. It currently offers DBLG2 as a smartphone application on Android, with iOS integration coming soon. As you just heard, it's integrated with kaleido and the company says it plans to make additional configuration for DBLG2 with alternative pumps "available soon." Running on a user's smartphone, DBLG2 works as a self-learning algorithm. It continuously analyzes glucose data, calculates insulin needs in real time and automatically adjusts delivery. https://www.drugdeliverybusiness.com/diabeloop-fda-next-gen-algorithm-g7/   XX Among adults with type 1 diabetes (T1D), the initiation of GLP-1-based therapy was associated with a lower risk for all-cause death, several cardiovascular outcomes, all-cause hospitalisations, and hypoglycaemia, without a higher risk for diabetic ketoacidosis.   METHODOLOGY: Researchers in Greece conducted a retrospective cohort study utilising real-world data from a global health research network to evaluate the association between GLP-1-based therapy and cardiovascular and renal outcomes in adults with T1D. A total of 4088 patients receiving GLP-1-based therapies (median age, 43 years; 34.3% men) were propensity score matched with an equal number of patients not receiving the treatment. The risk for hypoglycaemia was lower with GLP-1-based therapy (hazard ratio, 0.72; P = .021); however, the risk for diabetic ketoacidosis did not differ significantly between the two groups. https://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/glp-1-drugs-tied-cardiovascular-benefits-t1d-2026a1000fbx   XX Eli Lilly and Company (NYSE: LLY) today announced detailed results from two late-phase trials showing that people with obesity maintained their weight loss long term with either Foundayo or lower-dose Zepbound after switching from higher doses of injectable incretin therapy. The findings from SURMOUNT-MAINTAIN and ATTAIN-MAINTAIN, were presented at the 33rd European Congress on Obesity (ECO) and published in The Lancet and Nature Medicine, respectively.   "Weight regain remains one of the biggest challenges in obesity care, and is often the result of treatment interruptions that cause biology to work against patients, undoing the progress they've made," said Louis J. Aronne, M.D., FACP, DABOM, founder and Chair Emeritus of the American Board of Obesity Medicine, former president of The Obesity Society, Fellow of the American College of Physicians, world-renowned obesity specialist and Lilly consultant. "These medicines can be used for long-term maintenance today, and results from SURMOUNT-MAINTAIN and ATTAIN-MAINTAIN provide additional evidence of their potential when switching from higher doses of injectable incretin therapy." https://investor.lilly.com/news-releases/news-release-details/lillys-foundayo-and-lower-dose-zepbound-helped-people-maintain XX Scientists in Sweden have developed a more reliable way to create insulin-producing cells from human stem cells. These lab-grown cells not only respond strongly to glucose but were also able to restore blood sugar control when transplanted into diabetic mice. When transplanted into diabetic mice, the cells gradually restored the animals' ability to regulate blood sugar. Long way to go, as we say with most of these mice studies. https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2026/05/260505234620.htm XX Interesting look at how the body controls sugar storage – apparently this finding challenges long-standing biology concepts and could open new directions for disease treatment. Published in Nature, the study describes a potential method for directly reducing glycogen, the stored form of sugar in the body. These scientists discovered that glycogen can be directly regulated by ubiquitin, a protein best known for marking damaged proteins for recycling or removal. The study is the first to show that ubiquitin can regulate glycogen in humans, overturning more than 50 years of scientific understanding. Excess glycogen is also associated with more common health problems, including diabetes, obesity, liver disease, and heart disease.       https://scitechdaily.com/scientists-just-rewrote-biology-hidden-mechanism-could-transform-diabetes-treatment/ XX A new Oklahoma law will give parents the option to have their children screened for Type 1 Diabetes.   The measure passed with overwhelming bipartisan support in the Legislature and takes effect Nov 1. Oklahoma consistently ranks among the states with the highest rates of diabetes and diabetes-related deaths. The law gives parents access to antibody testing that can detect risk years before symptoms develop, helping families take preventive action and avoid emergency room visits. https://journalrecord.com/2026/05/11/oklahoma-law-expands-access-type-1-diabetes-screening/ XX More to come including a new study trying to figure out why some people are more likely to develop diabetes, a look at cannabis and preventing metabolic disorders, and XX   A National Institutes of Health (NIH)-funded study has identified key differences in human pancreatic islet cells that may help explain why some people are more likely to develop diabetes. Researchers found that the mix of hormone-producing cells in the pancreas varies widely from person to person, and that variation plays a central role in how the body regulates blood sugar. The study involved a deep dive into islet cell function that is linked to donor traits associated with observable characteristics, or phenotype, such as sex, race and ethnicity, as well as genetic information, or genotype, including predicted ancestry and genetic risk for both type 1 and type 2 diabetes. The findings highlight that islet cell composition, rather than the physical size and shape of islets, is a key factor in regulating hormone release. The team found that the makeup of pancreatic islets plays a major role in how effectively they release insulin and glucagon — key hormones that regulate blood glucose. Islets with a higher proportion of insulin-producing beta cells showed stronger insulin secretion in response to various stimuli, while higher levels of alpha and delta cells were generally linked to reduced insulin output. In addition, the researchers found that islet hormone secretion is affected by donor traits, such as sex, race and ethnicity and their genetic makeup, including ancestry predicted from genetic testing and genetic risk for type 2 diabetes. Combined, the findings of the study have significant implications for understanding the factors that may predispose people to diabetes. "This study is the tip of the iceberg," said Dr. Evans-Molina. "We hope this dataset becomes useful to the entire diabetes research community and that researchers use it to answer questions about the genotype-phenotype correlation within these data."   https://www.nih.gov/news-events/news-releases/nih-funded-study-maps-human-pancreatic-islet-cells-offering-new-clues-diabetes-risk XX XX XX Research published recently in JAMA Network Open offers illuminating evidence suggesting there is a positive association between GLP-1 agonists—drugs commonly used to treat obesity and diabetes—and better outcomes among breast cancer patients.   "This study suggests that GLP-1 drugs may offer protective benefits potentially improving survival and recurrence risk in some female patients with breast cancer – whether this is related to weight control, improve cardiovascular health or other mechanisms remains to be studied," said study senior author Bernard F. Fuemmeler, Ph.D., MPH, associate director for population sciences and the Gordon D. Ginder, M.D., Chair in Cancer Research at VCU Massey Comprehensive Cancer Center.   Breast cancer patients who are also obese or have type 2 diabetes experience more aggressive cancer growth and worse outcomes. Prior studies have shown that weight loss treatment and surgery following a breast cancer diagnosis are associated with improved heart health and increased survival.   What are GLP-1 drugs? Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs). Approved to treat type 2 diabetes in 2005 and weight management in 2021. Impacts on breast cancer survival and recurrence are still unclear. Since 2020, the use of these drugs has increased dramatically, where approximately 12% of Americans have used GLP-1s for weight loss, according to a RAND report.   The research findings Through a retrospective cohort study examining the electronic health records of more than 840,000 breast cancer patients who were diagnosed between 2006 and 2023, the results suggest there is a potential link between GLP-1 RAs and improved outcomes among breast cancer patients who are also obese or have type 2 diabetes.   GLP-1 RA use was associated with an overall lower risk of death from any cause over a 10-year follow-up period among breast cancer patients. Additionally, breast cancer survivors who used GLP1-RAs for diabetes or obesity had a significantly lower risk of their cancer returning over 10 years following their initial treatment.   "Our findings align with emerging preclinical research and contribute to a growing body of literature related to GLP-1 RA use in oncology settings," said study lead author Kristina L. Tatum, PsyD, MS, of the VCU School of Public Health.   What's next? Further studies are needed to understand the biological mechanisms, if any, between GLP-1 RAs and breast cancer outcomes. The research team intends to further evaluate these correlations through randomized clinical trials.   "Our study underscores the potential of GLP-1 RAs as an adjunct strategy for improving cancer-related outcomes among patients with breast cancer, although clinical trials are needed to inform effective therapeutic approaches and clinical decision making," Fuemmeler said. https://www.oncology-central.com/could-glp-1-receptor-agonists-improve-outcomes-for-breast-cancer-patients-with-obesity-or-with-type-2-diabetes/ XX Researchers at UC Riverside gave cannabis to obese mice and found that not only did the rodents lose weight, but when given a concentrated cannabis oil, the mice also saw striking benefits in their metabolic function. DiPatrizio said his team studied the issue to better understand why cannabis users show significant reductions in weight and risk for diabetes compared with nonusers. "We would think that chronic cannabis users would be eating more and weigh more, but it's just the opposite," DiPatrizio said. Scientists are increasingly examining the possibility that cannabis compounds could fight obesity or metabolic disorders like diabetes. Cannabinoids interact with the body's endocannabinoid system, which partially controls nearly every aspect of our physiology, including metabolism and appetite. That creates the possibility that targeting this widespread system could unlock new therapies for these conditions. https://www.sfgate.com/cannabis/article/cannabis-weight-loss-california-study-22255328.php XX A new campaign launched by diaTribe and Genentech aims to empower and educate people about diabetes-related eye disease. Here's what you can do today to protect your eye health. To help address these barriers, diaTribe and Genentech partnered to launch All Eyes on DME, a new campaign that aims to spread awareness and educate people at-risk for or living with diabetes-related eye conditions like DME. Also partnering in the campaign is actor and comedian Damon Wayans, who wanted to share his journey (and, of course, a joke or two) with type 2 diabetes to open up the conversation about what is often a stigmatized or less talked about topic: eye health and diabetes.   One of these important conversations happened recently at the All Eyes on DME launch in New York City, where Wayans joined a panel of experts, advocates, and people living with DME to talk about diabetes-related eye disease and how to help prevent it. https://www.alleyesondme.com/dme-in-the-spotlight.html https://diatribe.org/diabetes-complications/all-eyes-dme-new-campaign-spotlights-eye-health-and-diabetes

We tell conversion stories. We tell deconversion stories. But where are the stories of the long, complicated, and faithful middle? Author and Anglican priest Tish Harrison Warren joins Mark Labberton on her new book What Grows in Weary Lands: On Christian Resilience—a vision for faith that endures the long, often dry middle of life. Drawing on the Desert Mothers and Fathers, she names a quiet crisis many believers know but rarely speak: spiritual weariness, prayer that goes silent, and the cultural pull to blow up your life rather than stay in it. "Grit is an essential ingredient of grace, and resilience is indispensable if we are to become who we are made to be." In this episode with Mark Labberton, Warren reflects on her own burnout as a writer, mother, and priest, and what the ancient monks taught her about how to keep going. Together they discuss revivalism's distortions, stability of the heart, the church in exile, patience as resistance to consumerism, communal hope, and what it means to stay in your cell. Episode Highlights "What our culture and what the church tends to lack are stories of a long, steady continuation in faith." "Grit is an essential ingredient of grace, and resilience is indispensable if we are to become who we are made to be." "We meet God in the midst of that, not on the other side of that." "If the moral majority was kind of dressing Jesus up and putting him in a red tie, it didn't seem like a solution to just, for then, to me, put Jesus in a blue tie." "Our primary exile isn't a political state, it's that we're in sin."
