There's a version of you that's already over. You can feel it in the quiet dread of playing a role that stopped fitting somewhere along the way. What you haven't done yet is give it a proper ending.In this sixth episode of The Soul's Eight Thresholds of Transformation, Nina Hirlaender OFS takes you inside West Kennet Long Barrow — a 5,000-year-old Neolithic chamber in the English countryside — to explore the Autumn Equinox, the Celtic threshold of release. Through the story of Helen, a professor who spent two years carrying a devastating institutional betrayal entirely alone, Nina traces what becomes possible when you finally set down an identity that's already run its course. Drawing on Thomas Merton's theology of the true self and false self, somatic body wisdom, and the rhythms of autumn itself, this episode offers a grounded path from exhausted performance to genuine, recovered selfhood.What You'll Learn:The somatic signals your body sends when an identity has expired — and why the tiredness you feel isn't physical What Thomas Merton's theology of the true self reveals about which roles actually belong to you and which are performances you've been maintaining out of fearHow mature, conscious release differs from clinging to what's expired or letting go in a panic — and what it feels like when grief and freedom arrive togetherA 5-minute practice for releasing the false self and returning to the true self that remains underneathYour Next Steps:ONE SPOT LEFT!

Daylight Saving Time can disrupt your sleep—and that disruption can directly affect headaches and migraines.In this episode of The Headache Doctor Podcast, Dr. Jono Taves explains why sleep quality is one of the most important foundations for reducing headache and migraine frequency. As the clocks change and we lose an hour of sleep, many people experience increased fatigue, higher stress levels, and a lower tolerance for pain.Dr. Taves breaks down how sleep influences your pain threshold, inflammation, neurotransmitters, and nervous system regulation, and why poor sleep can make headache triggers hit harder.You'll also learn practical strategies to improve sleep quality, including optimal sleep positions, breathing techniques, and simple habits that support a healthier circadian rhythm.If headaches or migraines tend to worsen around daylight saving time, this episode will help you understand why—and what you can do to protect your sleep and raise your body's resilience to pain.In this episode you'll learn:Why sleep is critical for headache and migraine recoveryHow poor sleep lowers your pain tolerance and increases inflammationWhy daylight saving time can trigger more headaches and migrainesThe best sleep positions to reduce neck tension and painHow nasal breathing and sleep routines improve sleep qualitySimple ways to protect your circadian rhythm and nervous systemNovera: Headache Center

You can build the strongest aerobic engine in the world, but without threshold, it never learns how to race.If you've been logging miles but your race times have hit a wall, the problem might not be your effort; it's that you've been skipping the one zone that connects easy running to race pace. In this episode, I break down what threshold training actually is, why it sits right at the center of performance, and how it connects your easy miles to your race pace. You'll learn how to identify it, train it without burning out, and avoid the common mistakes that quietly stall progress. If you've ever felt fit but couldn't translate that fitness into faster times, this will help you close that gap with practical, repeatable strategies you can start applying right away.Key TakeawaysYou can build a big aerobic engine, but threshold is what teaches you how to use it at race effort. Without it, your training stays strong but your race results stall.Going too hard, skipping base training, or doing it while exhausted turns threshold into wasted effort. When done right, it becomes controlled, repeatable, and sustainable work.Simple field tests, race data, and structured workouts can get you close enough to train effectively. Precision helps, but consistency matters more.Timestamps[00:23] What You'll Learn[01:27] Understanding Lactate Threshold[01:54] Four Key Fun Run Science Facts About Lactate[03:23] What Happens When You Train At Threshold[03:57] Use This To Find Your Threshold[04:45] Why Threshold Sits At The Center Of Your Training[05:27] Three Ways to Train Threshold[08:22] The One Thing Injured Runners Need[09:58] Metaphors To Help Threshold Make Sense[10:51] The 5 Dumbest Threshold Mistakes[11:45] Mistake Number 2 - Skipping The Aerobic Base Phase[12:37] Mistake #3: Doing Threshold While You're Fatigued[13:44] Use This To Find Your Threshold And Train Smarter[14:11] Mistake #4 - Calling Everything Threshold[15:28] Mistake #5 Doing It Every Week Forever[16:42] Bonus Tip - Do Threshold Runs In The Same Consistent Place[17:29] The Difference Between Zone Two Threshold And VO Two Max.[18:00] Zone 2: The Foundation Of Aerobic Base Building[18:47] Run Science Nerd Break: Threshold Fun Facts[20:06] Defining Vo2 Max And Why It's So Important[20:39] Run Science Nerd Break - Aerobic Vs Anaerobic[22:04] Use This Cheat Sheet To Train Your Sub Threshold[22:32] My Vo2 Max Lactate Threshold Test Results[24:07] Why This All Matters For Runners[25:42] How I'm Training After The Test[28:40] Number Three Best Threshold Test - Online Calculators/Race Data[30:06] Number 2 Best Threshold Test - Field Test[31:26] Number One Best Threshold Test - Lab Test (Plus Vo2 Max Test)[33:36] What I Learned Doing Them AllLinks & Learnings

A leading homeless prevention charity assisted 183 Clare households in the final quarter of 2025. Thresholds latest report for the period of last October to December, shows it prevented 700 individuals and family units from entering homelessness nationwide. According to the group, 60% of its quarterly presentations from Clare, involved tenants who had a received a notice to quit. Threshold National Advocacy Manager Ann-Marie O'Reilly says this is far above the national average.

SHOW NOTES In this deeply reflective episode of Dare to Share Your Untold Story, the seats are intentionally reversed. Returning guest Rishma Govani steps into the interviewer role, creating space for Salima to explore an untold story of her own — one rooted in discernment, timing, and quiet internal reckoning. What unfolds is not a dramatic turning point, but the slow accumulation of awareness. The kind that builds quietly beneath the surface — through fatigue, resistance, emotional labour, and the subtle toll of holding space for others while navigating your own internal shifts. Salima speaks candidly about the mental and emotional impact of recognizing when something meaningful begins to ask for re-evaluation. The tension between love and misalignment. The guilt that accompanies change. The exhaustion that comes not from burnout, but from staying longer than your inner knowing allows. Together, they examine what it costs to ignore timing — and what it requires to honour it. The conversation traces the psychological weight of leadership decisions that are not visible from the outside, but deeply felt within: disrupted sleep, internal questioning, emotional strain, and the steady pull toward integrity over endurance. This episode explores endings that are not failures. Thresholds that arrive through truth rather than crisis. And the courage it takes to embody the very principles we invite others into — especially when the stakes feel personal. At its core, this conversation is about presence over permanence, discernment over performance, and the mental health impact of choosing alignment even when it unsettles what has been familiar. What unfolds here is not a goodbye. It is a reckoning with timing, and the quiet courage it requires. Her key message to the listeners of the show is: You don't need to perform your pain to be worthy of care; you don't need to explain your history for it to be valid; and you don't need to wait until things fall apart to give yourself permission to pause. Guest Bio: Rishma Govani is a seasoned communications leader, speaker, and storyteller with over 25 years of experience across Canada's media landscape, including CBC, CTV, and Global News.

The pod welcomes TNT Sports co-commentator Lucy Ward for the latest edition of Mesut Haaland Dicks, as she chooses her six personal fascinations and irritations of football. Among Lucy's selections are the joy of young players making their senior debut, fence-perching and megaphone-toting Continental ultras, the post-goal cue for a co-commentator to wax lyrical, the "Ayling Flop" and clubs tenuously claiming youth signings as "one of their own". Meanwhile, the Adjudication Panel hear an unexpected pre-penalty shout at Yeovil, ponder a potential technicality in awarding the save of the season, and get mathematical about passes being put on a proverbial "sixpence".

You've spent decades showing up, giving, and getting it done. So why does actually enjoying what you've built feel like something you still need permission for?In this fifth episode of The Soul's Eight Thresholds of Transformation, Nina Hirlaender OFS walks you through Lammas, the ancient Celtic harvest threshold that asks a question most high-functioning seekers have been avoiding: Are you ready to receive the abundance you've worked so hard for? Through the ruins of Glastonbury Abbey and the story of a physician who hadn't taken a real vacation in eighteen years, Nina explores why receiving feels dangerous to people who've built their identity on being useful, and what happens when you finally let the bread that's already baked actually nourish you.Drawing on the wisdom of Brother Lawrence, Abraham Maslow, and the somatic intelligence of the body, this episode traces how the fear of receiving keeps your spiritual life malnourished and offers a devastatingly simple practice to begin crossing this threshold today.What You'll Learn:Why high-functioning people fear their own greatness — and how that fear quietly starves the soul even in seasons of abundanceThe two patterns that keep seekers stuck at this threshold: treating desire as suspect and staying in perpetual service modeWhat Brother Lawrence discovered about receiving God's presence while peeling potatoes — and why his kitchen spirituality still outpaces elaborate systemsThe body signals that reveal whether you're metabolizing your life or just producing through itYour Next Steps:Register for the final Celtic Shamanism in England pilgrimage (May 23 – June 2, 2026): https://dancingspirittours.com/journeys/england/Watch the free class replay — "The 8 Seasons of the Soul (And How to Know Which One You're In)": https://nina-hirlaender.mykajabi.com/8-seasons-of-the-soulSupport the showRate, Review & Follow If Holy Rebels has helped you practise your spirituality in real life, would you take 30 seconds to leave a quick rating and review?

In this episode of the special series Crossing Thresholds, Maurice Bloem speaks with Hinauri Nehua-Jackson, a proud Māori–South Korean woman born in Aotearoa (New Zealand) and now based on Treaty 6 Territory in Canada. Hinauri introduces herself in her Indigenous language and shares the meaning of her spirit name, Kapiska Mahigan Isku Onitsigason — White Wolf Woman. From the beginning, it is clear: she walks consciously between lands, between cultures, between responsibilities. At age 11, she immigrated to Canada without knowing English. What she searched for was not language — but community. Indigenous elders on Turtle Island welcomed her as one of their own, reinforcing her belief that Indigenous solidarity transcends borders. At 16, during ceremony, her path became clear. Serving elders at Sundance, disconnected from technology and urban life, she experienced what she calls the joy of selfless service. That moment “flipped the switch” for her leadership journey. As a young Indigenous leader in oil-driven Alberta, she navigates the tension between economic systems and Indigenous teachings about land stewardship. For Hinauri, climate is not abstract policy — it is spiritual balance, interconnectedness (Wakotouin), and responsibility to seven generations.   This episode connects deeply with the JLI & Christian Aid report on Climate, Migration and Faith, reminding us that climate displacement is not only physical — it is spiritual, cultural, and intergenerational.   Hinauri does not speak for Indigenous peoples. She speaks as someone who carries her ancestors forward — across oceans. We hope that you enjoy this extra long episode with this inspiring young woman.   Learn more about the research behind this series: [link to JLI–Christian Aid report]   Listener Engagement: Learn more about Hinauri via her LinkedIn, Instagram and Facebook.

A new film shares an intimate portrait of the country's most decorated cross-country skier, Jessie Diggins. It shows her tough resolve in competition – and her determination to maintain her recovery from an eating disorder. Diggins has been open about going through a relapse in 2023. Brothers Lars and Torsten Brinkema from Minneapolis are behind the new film, "Threshold," streaming now on Peacock. They gave a preview of the story on Minnesota Now.

You've been the strong one for so long you've forgotten what it feels like to be held. And your body is starting to keep score. Sound familiar?In Episode 4 of The Soul's 8 Thresholds of Transformation, Nina Hirlaender OFS takes you to St Michael's Mount off the coast of Cornwall, where the land itself asks you a pointed question: Are you shining, or are you burning out? This is the Summer Solstice threshold — the place where your full visibility, leadership, and power either become sustainable or consume you. Drawing on the theology of Julian of Norwich, the calm authority of Archangel Michael, and a story from a pilgrim named Margaret who realized she'd been "fighting like she was afraid she'd lose," Nina offers a grounded path to radiance that includes receiving, not just giving. You'll leave with a five-minute practice that trains your nervous system to hold power without strain.What You'll Learn:Why your success feels hollow when your body is running on adrenaline and your joy has quietly disappeared. The moment on St Michael's Mount that shows you exactly how you approach every challenge in your lifeWhat Julian of Norwich understood about power and tenderness that most modern leaders get dangerously wrongA five-minute practice that rewires your nervous system to hold visibility without grippingThe one shift that turns overgiving from a fear response into genuine, sustainable strengthYour Next Steps:Watch the free class replay: "The 8 Seasons of the Soul (And How to Know Which One You're In)": https://nina-hirlaender.mykajabi.com/8-seasons-of-the-soul Register for the final Celtic Shamanism in England pilgrimage (May 23 – June 2, 2026): https://dancingspirittours.com/journeys/england/Book a call with Nina: https://calendly.com/nina-hirlaender/15minSupport the showRate, Review & Follow If Holy Rebels has helped you practise your spirituality in real life, would you take 30 seconds to leave a quick rating and review?

Packers Total Access : Breaking Down Gutey's Athletic Thresholds 

Packers Total Access : Breaking Down Gutey's Athletic Thresholds 

If you're over 45 and training consistently but noticing slower recovery, softer body composition, or declining strength — this episode is for you. In this deep-dive rabbit hole conversation, Debbie breaks down the real science of Muscle Protein Synthesis (MPS) and why protein distribution — not just total protein — becomes critical in midlife. You'll learn why 20–30 grams of protein often isn't enough anymore, why adults 45+ may need 3–4 grams of leucine per meal to fully activate mTOR signaling, and how anabolic resistance changes the muscle-building equation for both men and women. We also explore AMPK vs mTOR balance, chronic fasting and endurance training effects, insulin resistance, stress-driven cortisol interference, and how PNOĒ metabolic testing and genetic insights can personalize your muscle-building strategy. Midlife isn't decline — it's a threshold shift. When you understand the signaling, you can train smarter, fuel intentionally, and protect your metabolism for decades to come.

If you're exhausted from replaying conversations, second-guessing your choices, and filtering your personality through “what will they think?” - this episode will help.I'm joined by Jordanna Bornensztajn (comedian, communication expert, keynote speaker) to unpack the real reason so many high-functioning people feel stuck: fear of judgment.We talk about why judgment is the #1 fear she sees in workshops, why most of the “pressure” you feel is actually self-generated, and the mindset shift that instantly loosens its grip: stop making it about you. We also get into how confidence is built through messy action (not certainty), why your brain treats social risk like physical danger, and how to use embarrassment and failure as fuel instead of proof that you're “behind.”This episode will change your life by changing your relationship with judgment.Jordanna is a comedian, communication expert, keynote speaker, and public speaking coach.

You cannot leak a secret unless it is an actual secret.

Change is unavoidable in today's workplace. But confusion, resistance, and stalled initiatives don't have to be. In this episode of The Leadership Habit, Jenn DeWall sits down with change strategist Rebecca Reynolds to explore why most transformations struggle—and how leaders can guide their teams through change with clarity, confidence, and lasting impact. Meet Rebecca Reynolds, CEO & Strategist Rebecca Reynolds is the founder and CEO of RRC and a trusted advisor to leaders navigating complex organizational change. With more than 30 years of experience across corporate, nonprofit, and public sector organizations, she helps executives align teams, strengthen communication, and lead transformations that stick. Rebecca is also the author of Thresholds of Change: The Way Through Transformational Times, a practical playbook for guiding personal and organizational transformation. Her work focuses on designing change processes that support leaders while keeping people engaged, resilient, and focused on results. Why Most Change Initiatives Struggle In the episode, Reynolds shares a powerful insight: nearly 70% of people naturally resist change. That means most leaders are working against human instinct when introducing new strategies, systems, or priorities. Too often, organizations treat change as a one-time announcement rather than a structured journey. Leaders introduce a new idea, hope it works, and move on. When results fall short, teams become frustrated and disengaged. Sustainable change requires intention, pacing, and continuous communication—not quick fixes. The Four Thresholds of Change Reynolds' “Thresholds of Change” framework explains how people and organizations move through transformation in predictable stages. 1. Instigation: Recognizing Early Warning Signs This stage is about noticing when something is no longer working. Declining morale, repeated mistakes, missed deadlines, and customer complaints are all indicators that change may be necessary. Effective leaders pay attention early, before small problems become major disruptions. 2. The Liminal Stage: Creating Space for Insight Often called the “messy middle,” this phase is where many leaders lose patience. Instead of rushing to solutions, Reynolds encourages leaders to pause and listen. This stage allows teams to challenge assumptions, explore possibilities, and develop better ideas. It is uncomfortable—but essential for meaningful change. 3. Metabolization: Testing New Approaches Once clarity emerges, teams begin experimenting. Leaders pilot ideas, gather feedback, and refine processes. This stage builds confidence and helps employees feel ownership of the change. 4. Manifestation: Making Change Stick In the final stage, the organization operates with stronger alignment and renewed momentum. Performance improves, people trust the direction, and new habits become part of everyday work. When leaders engage the full process, change becomes lasting rather than temporary. Where Leaders Commonly Go Wrong Throughout the conversation, Jenn and Rebecca highlight several common mistakes that derail transformation: Treating major change like routine management Assuming everyone is comfortable with uncertainty Ignoring frontline perspectives Skipping reflection and planning time Communicating decisions only after they are finalized One key takeaway is that leaders are often more adaptable than their teams. Without intentional support, this gap leads to resistance and frustration. Why Collaboration Matters in Change Successful change is rarely built in isolation. Instead of designing plans behind closed doors, strong leaders invite input throughout the process. This improves solutions, builds trust, and prevents costly blind spots. When people feel heard and involved, they are far more likely to support new initiatives. Applying These Lessons in Your Organization This episode offers practical guidance for leaders at every level. As you reflect, consider: What signals might you be overlooking? Have you created space for honest dialogue? Are you moving too quickly to “fix” things? Who needs to be involved earlier? Change does not fail because people are incapable. It fails when leaders underestimate its complexity.

One of the biggest reasons change efforts stall is that teams aren't aligned on how significant the change actually is. To help with that, Rebecca is offering Leadership Habit listeners a complimentary tool called The Change Scale Assessment. It helps leadership teams quickly align on the true scale of change they're facing—before decisions are made or momentum is lost.  Designed for groups of any size, the assessment brings multiple perspectives into the conversation, creating shared clarity and a more durable path forward.

In this episode, we traverse the real depths of the metamorphosis women go through when the longing for love, marriage, devotion, and motherhood awakens–especially after years of being the high-achieving, ambitious, driven woman who built her identity around her success. Because when that longing arrives, it doesn't just add a new desire to your life…It often shatters identities. The "high-achiever / boss-babe identity" and the "wife/mother/woman identity" can feel like two tectonic plates colliding, creating grief, fear, anxiety, confusion… and a radical reordering of values and priorities. We explore why so many women are trying to rush, control, or think their way through this threshold—and why it doesn't work. Why the only way through is descent: below the mind, into the body, the nervous system, the womb, the erotic aliveness, the grief, the anger, the void. If you've built success… and yet your feminine heart is aching for something more–this episode is a warm embrace and an invitation to soften into what is true.   In this episode, we explore: Why the longing for marriage and motherhood can trigger an identity crisis (even in the most successful women) The hidden ways high-achieving women armor their hearts through hustling and over-functioning The "identity crisis" calling you forth to a different era when single Outgrowing your gender roles when in long-term partnership  The "tectonic plate" collision: CEO vs. wife/mother/woman Why "having it all" often comes with the fine print: you must also do it all How overcoming  the 50/50 dynamic, being the breadwinner, and provision conversations can become major initiations The real cost on your womanhood, intimacy, & health of spending years in productivity-first mode–from burnout to loss of sexual desire, emotional numbing or fertility challenges  Why mind-based work alone doesn't create lasting change–and why actual actual must encompass the nervous system   The sacred role of the holy void: the in-between space where the old dies and the new hasn't arrived yet Navigating the initiatory thresholds – the descents – as an embodied woman   Dive deeper into my world Join Holy Body – The Somatic Membership to release armor, rewire patterns, create a life where you get it to have it all–the devotional love, the thriving family, the wild wealth–in alignment with your body, womb, and femininity  Connect on Instagram: @aurikavalan Get my FREE Somatic Reset with 3 somatic practices to reset your relationships, business, and feminine aliveness  

There's a waterfall hidden in the woods of Cornwall that makes grandmothers kick off their boots and dance on wet stones. Something about this place strips away the performance — and gives you permission you didn't know you needed.In episode 3 of The Soul's 8 Thresholds of Transformation, Nina Hirlaender OFS guides you across the Beltane threshold: the return of desire, creative energy, and embodied joy. She explores what happens when longing wakes up after a long silence — and why so many seekers either shame their desire into submission or scatter it through impulsive action. Drawing on Francis of Assisi as the Mystic of Joy and the theological concept of incarnational joy, Nina makes a compelling case: joy is not a reward for getting your life right. It's one of the clearest ways your heart tells the truth.What You'll Learn:What your body is actually telling you when restlessness, longing, or creative heat suddenly shows upThe hidden reason your spiritual life feels exhausting (it's not what you think)Two common traps that keep seekers stuck at this threshold — and the one shift that changes everythingWhat Francis of Assisi understood about desire that most modern spirituality gets completely wrongA five-minute practice that can bring joy back into your body today — no waterfall requiredYour Next Steps:Register for the Free Live Class: "The 8 Seasons of the Soul (And How to Know Which One You're In)" >> https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/H4M-xN9DSyS_uicdJdjjTQJoin the final Celtic Shamanism in England pilgrimage (May 23 – June 2, 2026)>> https://dancingspirittours.com/journeys/england/Support the showRate, Review & Follow If Holy Rebels has helped you practise your spirituality in real life, would you take 30 seconds to leave a quick rating and review?

Is Bitcoin still just a digital store of value, or is it quietly evolving into the financial engine of a new on-chain economy? In this episode of Tech Talks Daily, I sat down with Callan Sarre, Co-Founder of Threshold Labs, to explore what happens when the world's most recognized crypto asset stops sitting idle and starts becoming programmable capital. We recorded against the backdrop of a sharp market correction that wiped out value across crypto and traditional assets alike, making for a timely and honest conversation about volatility, maturity, and why Bitcoin's next chapter may be defined by utility rather than price speculation.  Callan explains how the rise of ETFs and institutional flows is reshaping ownership, while decentralized infrastructure is working to ensure users can still access the asset's underlying power. At the heart of our discussion is tBTC, a trust-minimized bridge that moves native Bitcoin into DeFi without handing control to centralized custodians. Callan breaks down how Threshold's decentralized custody model works in practice and why removing single points of failure matters in a post-FTX world. We also explore the behavioral barriers that have kept long-term holders from putting their BTC to work, the real risks behind Bitcoin yield strategies, and the infrastructure required to make these tools accessible to a broader audience through familiar Web2-style experiences. The conversation also takes a global turn as we look at why Asia is accelerating Bitcoin innovation, how regulation is driving institutional adoption in Western markets, and what the shift from DAO-led governance to a lab execution model reveals about the realities of building at scale.  Looking ahead five years, Callan paints a picture of an integrated on-chain financial system where Bitcoin can be borrowed against, deployed, and settled instantly across shared liquidity rails, while still preserving the principles that made it attractive in the first place. So if Bitcoin becomes productive capital and the majority of financial activity moves on-chain, what does that mean for traditional finance, for long-term holders, and for the next wave of builders? And are we ready for a world where the most secure monetary asset also becomes the most composable?

The Aquarius New Moon on February 14, 2026 arrives as a powerful Solar Eclipse — the first eclipse of this season and a significant energetic doorway into a new collective chapter. Eclipses are not ordinary New Moons. They are portals. They interrupt the usual rhythm of time and invite accelerated change, realignment, and revelation. This lunation takes place at the anaretic degree of Aquarius, emphasizing culmination and transition. Something is completing, and something new is beginning — even if we cannot yet name it.

Send a textIn this episode of Journal Club, Ben and Daphna review a non-inferiority trial from the European Journal of Pediatrics exploring surfactant administration thresholds in preterm neonates. The study, conducted in India, compares a 30% versus 40% FiO2 threshold for babies 26-32 weeks gestational age. The hosts break down the counterintuitive findings regarding respiratory support duration in younger subgroups and discuss the broader implications of using rigid FiO2 heuristics versus individualized patient assessment. They also debate how resource availability influences clinical protocols and the potential benefits of "LISA" (Less Invasive Surfactant Administration) for avoiding intubation.----Higher (40%) versus lower (30%) FiO2 threshold for surfactant administration in preterm neonates between 26 and 32 weeks of gestational age: a non-inferiority randomized controlled trial.

Does the brain explain the mind completely? And what can phenomena like terminal lucidity and near-death experiences reveal about the relationship between mind and brain? On this ID The Future, host Andrew McDiarmid concludes his two-part conversation exploring those questions with neurosurgeon Dr. Michael Egnor, co-author with Denyse O'Leary of the recent book The Immortal Mind: A Neurosurgeon's Case for the Existence of the Soul, and Alexander Batthyany, a leading researcher on terminal lucidity and author of Threshold: Terminal Lucidity and the Border Between Life and Death. In the first half of the conversation, we defined terminal lucidity and explored why it's so puzzling. Today, we look at how it relates to near-death experiences, and we ask a deeper question: what does this phenomenon suggest about the nature of the human mind? This is Part 2 of a two-part conversation. Source
