In this episode we turn to Luke 8:16-25. In this passage, we read about the lesson of the lamp, Jesus' interaction with his mother and brothers, and Jesus' calming of the storm. Together we walk together through three key parts of the passage. First, we consider how Jesus, though speaking in parables, was still clearly revealing the Kingdom of Heaven—and how coming to Him in humility opens us to receive His wisdom and understanding. Second, we reflect on Jesus' ability to use every day moments, even interruptions, as opportunities to teach, expanding our view of who truly belongs to His family. Finally, we look at how Jesus calming the storm shows us, through creation itself, what it means to respond with humility and obedience to what Jesus says.

Creflo Dollar joins us to share how a revelation of God's grace transformed his life through one of the darkest seasons from his book, The Transformative Power of Grace. (J2721)
In this message we examine the importance of not just "feeling thankful" but rather the call on our lives to "be thankful" and how that looks in our everyday lives. We unpack how expressing our gratitude to both God and others can transform our perspective as well as our hearts. We discuss the foundation of a thankful heart - humility and contentment as well as the greatest enemy of developing that kind of mindset - entitlement and selfishness. Join us as we look at the encounter Jesus had with 10 men cursed with leprosy and why only one of them returned to thank him after he healed them.

Homeopathy is a centuries-old system of medicine that works on the vibrational level to restore harmony to both body and spirit — yet its extraordinary success and rich history have been buried by medical suppression. In this conversation, Melissa Kupsch shares how this gentle but powerful modality broke her sister's six-year cycle of debilitating illness, altered the course of her own life, and continues to transform the lives of her clients.We explore how homeopathy addresses the deeper blueprint of a person's being, its unmatched results during historic epidemics, and the forces that pushed it out of the mainstream.

I'm sharing a conversation I had with my friend and colleague, Doug O'Brien. Doug is a master storyteller, hypnotherapist, and bestselling author — and like me, he's been fascinated for decades with the ways language and story can change lives. In this episode, we explore: • How stories shape the way people see themselves and the world • The simple structure behind every powerful story • The role stories play in creating lasting change I think you'll find this exploration both practical and thought-provoking — especially if you've ever wondered why a single story can sometimes do what hours of explanation can't.

Jon Fischer is a professional photographer and coach with over 15 years of experience who has pioneered a revolutionary approach to authentic expression photography. After thousands of client sessions, Jon discovered that while technical excellence is essential, it's the capture of authentic expression that truly drives results and creates meaningful connections.Jon is the author of the newly completed book, "The Lens of Truth: Discovering Photography's Transformative Power," which explores how authentic photography can change people's self-perception and lives. His breakthrough came while developing dating profile photography for middle-aged divorcees, when he discovered that truly authentic images have the power to bypass people's self-doubt, helping them experience profound moments of self-recognition that can heal old wounds and reveal forgotten strengths.Throughout his career, Jon has specialized in working with executives, entrepreneurs, professionals, and everyday individuals. He has developed unique techniques to "sculpt" specific, authentic qualities that resonate with viewers, creating what he calls "undeniable" images that people can't dismiss as "just a good photo." His philosophy centers on capturing transformative moments "just in case" they might help someone during a future moment of need.Jon's work spans several specialized areas:Dating Photography: Helping individuals create honest visual representations that lead to meaningful connections on dating platformsHealing Photography: A therapeutic approach using photography to foster self-acceptance and emotional healingAuthentic Photography: Capturing authentic expressions that drive real business results for professionalsA sought-after speaker and educator, Jon regularly shares his insights through workshops and training programs.

Send a text to Melissa and she'll answer it on the next episode. "When I found homeopathy, I was like this can't possibly work." Kimberly's remarkable health journey began with extreme skepticism about those tiny sugar pills with Latin names. After years of restrictive diets, endless detoxes, and natural remedies that provided minimal relief, one desperate attempt with Arsenicum Album for a severe infection changed everything.The transformation was immediate and undeniable. "I woke up disoriented the next morning – something was missing. It was the itching that had been torturing me for weeks." This dramatic healing experience opened the door to exploring what homeopathy might do for her chronic eczema, cat allergies, and other persistent conditions that had resisted all previous approaches.What followed was nothing short of liberating. After two years of not being able to use soap on her cracked, bleeding hands despite following the strictest elimination diet, homeopathy healed her skin completely – and remarkably, allowed her to eat previously problematic foods without flare-ups. The cat who once triggered severe respiratory symptoms now sleeps peacefully by her side every night.These personal experiences revealed something profound: many "natural" approaches she'd previously embraced were actually suppressive rather than truly healing. Where she once felt obligated to tell clients "you're never going to eat anything fun again," she now offers solutions that work with the body's innate healing capacity without requiring life-altering restrictions.Now as a practitioner herself, Kimberly has witnessed similar transformations in her clients – from a woman who discontinued proton pump inhibitors after 40 years to an infant whose six-month cough resolved completely. Her approach combines deep homeopathic knowledge with practical experience and the understanding that true healing empowers rather than restricts.Ready to experience what homeopathy might do for your persistent health challenges?

In today's episode, host Pete Moore sits down with long-time friend and veteran health club entrepreneur, Mark Rothschild. From launching his first gym in 1995 to navigating the evolving landscape of the HALO (Health, Active Lifestyle, Outdoor) space, Mark shares his journey through the industry's highs and lows—including insights gained through decades of club ownership, expansion, and his own, personal transformation. The conversation dives deep into Mark's shift from traditional gym operations to curating meaningful wellness experiences, like his transformative retreat in Costa Rica. Pete and Mark reflect on the power of disconnecting from daily anxiety, reframing self-care, and the importance of creating supportive communities—both inside and outside the gym. Whether you're a fitness professional, club owner, or someone in search of inspiration for your next chapter, this episode is packed with upfront wisdom, real talk about growth, and a look at what it means to both "lead and heal." Key themes discussed Personal growth through fitness and mental health. Evolution from health club operations to wellness retreats. Mindfulness, meditation, and yoga as transformative tools. Importance of community and supportive environments. Embracing discomfort for personal development. Reframing life's hardships into strength and compassion. A few key takeaways: 1. Transformative Power of Retreats and Mindful Experiences: Marc shared how attending a retreat in Costa Rica was a huge turning point for him, both personally and professionally. He mentioned it challenged him physically and mentally, helping him disconnect from daily anxieties and reconnect with nature, mindfulness, and himself. He now feels pulled to curate similar experiences for others, focusing on true transformation rather than just a "typical" vacation. 2. Embracing Discomfort for Personal Growth: Marc emphasized growth comes from getting out of your comfort zone. Whether it's sharing a bungalow with strangers or pushing through physical pain during the retreat, stepping into discomfort allowed him and others to experience real change and build resilience. 3. Entrepreneurial Spirit vs. "Traditional" Employment: Throughout his career—from opening his first gym in 1995, partnering on joint ventures, to his current pursuits—Marc has always been a serial entrepreneur. He reflected on the importance of building a life and work style true to oneself, especially as he's realized he thrives when running his own show versus working for someone else. 4. A Holistic Approach to Fitness, Health, and Recovery: Marc's perspective on health over the years has shifted to a more holistic view. He talked about the importance of integrating modalities like yoga, Tabata, and strength training with mental and emotional well-being, clean nutrition, and recovery. He suggested that feeling your best is about making cumulative positive choices—what you eat, how you move, and how you care for your mind. 5. Community and Connection Versus "Just a Gym": Marc's clubs (like Rock Creek Sports Club) have found success not just by offering fitness classes and equipment, but by fostering real community. They focus on culture, inclusivity, and kindness, attracting and retaining members who want support, encouragement, and genuine connection rather than just your "standard" gym experience.

Although we are not permitted to hold weddings during these days, Halacha allows a person to become engaged—even on Tisha B'Av itself. The Gemara explains the reason: שמא יקדיםנו אחר —perhaps someone else will marry her first. But the Gemara then raises a question: If a person's zivug is already determined even before conception, how could anyone else take what was destined for someone? The answer: if the other person prays hard enough, he may merit it. From here we learn the incredible power of tefillah: It can change what has already been decreed. The Gemara in Masechet Berachot states that one can pray for the gender of a fetus only until the 40th day after conception. After that point, it is considered a tefillat shav —a vain prayer. However, the Yerushalmi in Berachot writes that even if a woman is already in labor, tefillah can still change the gender of the child. Even though we follow the Bavli and do not pray for a gender change after 40 days, the Sefer Berumo Shel Olam explains that the disagreement is only about whether one may pray for a miracle—but all agree that prayer itself retains the power to change reality, even up to the moment of birth. We find an extraordinary example in the case of Chizkiyahu HaMelech. The Navi Yeshayahu came to him and told him that Hashem had decreed death upon him—because he did not fulfill the mitzvah of peri'ah v'revia , having children. Chizkiyahu, although righteous, had seen through prophecy that he would father a wicked son and therefore refrained from marrying. Despite his reasoning, he was held accountable. Chizkiyahu then asked Yeshayahu if he could marry the prophet's daughter, in the hope that their combined merits would produce righteous children. But Yeshayahu answered: It's too late—the decree has already been sealed. Chizkiyahu turned his face to the wall and poured out his heart in prayer. And indeed, Yeshayahu was immediately told to return and inform the king that Hashem had added fifteen more years to his life. Many ask: Why didn't Yeshayahu know through prophecy that tefillah would change the decree? The Kad HaKemach answers: Tefillah is higher than prophecy. It stems from a level in Shamayim beyond where nevu'ah can reach. Even a prophet cannot see what changes tefillah might bring. Another powerful example is Leah Imeinu. It was decreed before she was born that she would marry Esav. But through heartfelt tefillah, she changed her destiny—and instead married Yaakov Avinu, the Gadol HaDor . The Gemara in Masechet Niddah asks: What can a person do to become wise? It answers: He should study Torah and pray to the One who possesses all wisdom. The Maharsha explains that the question refers to someone whose natural intellect was limited due to a Heavenly decree. Can such a person become wise? The Gemara answers: Yes—if he learns Torah and prays sincerely, even he can attain wisdom. Through Torah and tefillah, one can rise above natural limitations. There is nothing that tefillah cannot accomplish. Therefore, it is our responsibility to use this powerful gift with all our strength. Even if we feel that we've prayed many times and nothing has changed—we must continue. The Gemara tells us, חזק ויאמץ לבך וקוה אל ה —strengthen yourself, and do it again. There is no limit to what effort in tefillah can achieve. We must keep renewing our strength, returning to prayer again and again, pouring out our hearts with sincerity and Emunah.

Welcome to Mind Over Matters, where we explore the science, stories, and strategies behind whole-person wellness. I'm your host, Dr. Aimee Harris-Newon and this week we're diving into a fascinating, often misunderstood form of healing: integrative chiropractic care. You might think of chiropractic care as just a quick back crack or something you only need when you're in pain. But what if I told you it can be a powerful tool to optimize your nervous system, improve immune function, reduce stress, support digestion, enhance mental clarity, and even promote better sleep? On this week' show, we'll take a closer look at how integrative chiropractic care is transforming lives by combining traditional spinal adjustments with a comprehensive approach to health that includes nutrition, lifestyle guidance, and collaboration with other medical professionals. Whether you're dealing with chronic pain, fatigue, digestive challenges, or mental fog—or you simply want to feel more aligned with your body—this episode could open a new door to healing. We'll also explore how this field endured one of the most significant smear campaigns in modern medical history and emerged stronger, validated by science and supported by a growing number of collaborative healthcare providers. So let's get aligned, shall we?

What if the fastest way to unlock clarity, connection, and emotional healing wasn't through another mindset shift but through your breathwork? Don't knock it before you try it. When it's done correctly, breathwork has incredible healing powers. Even though I've tried to apply breathwork with the S.A.V.E.R.S. in my Miracle Morning, it was usually an afterthought when meditating. But not anymore, and you'll hear about my experience when I truly felt how powerful it was, to the point that I was bawling my eyes out and releasing so much energy. Samantha Skelly is the founder of the world's leading breathwork brand, Pause Breathwork. She's also a bestselling author, international speaker, and host of the Can't Be Contained podcast. For years, Samantha struggled with anxiety, body image issues, eating disorders… you name it. And despite being a personal development junkie, nothing was working. But by reading one book, her intuition told her to book a one-way ticket to Bali to learn about breathwork, and her life was changed forever. In our conversation, you'll learn how breathwork creates sustainable transformation when combined with mindset shifts and the concept of making emotional pain optional by tapping into its power and using breathwork as a tool to make those moments easier to manage. If you're someone who has tried breathwork before but is still unsure whether it works, I encourage you to check out this episode. KEY TAKEAWAYS The duality of life where the moments of pain make moments of joy so much better How your breath is the bridge that connects you to your true self Why emotions stored in the body block your growth How to take convert emotional pain & memories into positive energy Why mindset work alone won't create lasting change without somatic healing Samantha's simple 3-minute breathwork exercise to help remove fears and feel love today Get The Full Show Notes To get full access to today's show notes, including audio, transcript, and links to all the resources mentioned, visit MiracleMorning.com/592 Subscribe, Rate & Review I would love if you could subscribe to the podcast and leave an honest rating & review.
