If we push up our energy from our lowest part of our body (sex or root chakra) to our heart/heart chakra, we become blissful! The sex or root chakra is 5 cm above the vagina inside of the body; the heart chakra is between the breast nipples, or on the sternum 5 to 10 centimeters inside of the body. All mystical tradition have done so. Still, the techniques are different. We can even gain the Kundalini through these techniques and with the Kundalini the energy is going always upwards.1.)Shaking method of the whole body ... the pelvis is the pivot point. This is the best-known technique from Bhagwan/Osho as Kundalini Meditation. The Qigong uses the shaking of the body to relax. 2.)Dancing like crazy... trance dancing. Let your body dance and don't interfere with your mind. And then miracles can happen!3.)Unique rhythms of drums used as a shamanistic technique. The African, Hindu, Tibetan, are famous for their complicated drum rhythms that cause trance trough raising the energy from your lowest chakra upwards, like dancing and shaking. Even working in a fabric that involves doing the same movement again and again at a specific speed can cause that. 4.)Singing of Gospels or religious devotional songs. A good singer always sings from the lowest chakra. And if he/she is singing devotional songs for the Lord, the energy raises upwards.5.)Different sounds resonate with different parts of the body so the U is in the lowest area of the body and the A sound is in the heart chakra.  For instance, the Sufi Dikir: Huh Allah or Sufi breathing. The Chinese created great mantras for this, so you can also heal your body with a combination of different sounds/Chinese Mantras. When we move our pelvis back and forward with the sounds, we create even more energy upward… 6.)Even it looks weird we use this pelvic movement back and forward also in a different area with the same effect. It also works without sex only with deep breathing and sounds (Hu Allah) in the standing position! If you do it correct your body gets a body orgasm. 7.)The Tao Energy pump: We do the Kegel exercise. When breathing in the female contract the vagina and the male pull up the testicles and give some tension to the penis. No pressure on the anus. With the inhale we pull up the energy from the root chakra upward until the crone-chakra (head highest point). We press the tongue on the roof of the mouth and with the exhale we release the tension of the vagina or testicle and push the energy from the crone-chakra downward to the root chakra.Every baby does this when soaking milk. And if the baby does this secret technique, they are experiencing a very high state of meditation!My Video: How to become blissfully? https://youtu.be/OmK1jESzBlYMy Audio: https://divinesuccess.net/wp-content/uploads/2021/Podcast.B/How-to-become-blissfully.mp3

Send us a textIn this episode, Arnie, Fred and Glenn begin by briefly tracing the establishment of the Lord's Church. In later episodes we will look at the beginnings of various religious bodies existent today. We begin by noting that Jesus promised to build His Church.  We note the meaning of the word "Church" and also point out that it is also called His Kingdom. We move on to discuss the fact that Christ did establish His church as He promised. Our discussion notes that the Bible tells us when it was established and how it was to come into being and we note those passages. The Bible is clear as to the Founder of Christ's Church and we talk about that. Christ's Church has a head that is specified in one passage, and we look at that passage. The basis of the establishment of Christ's Church is also revealed to us in the scriptures. We discuss two of those passages found in Acts. We close out this episode by noting the uniqueness of Christ's Church. Take about 30-minutes to listen in on our discussion. Have your Bible handy so you can verify what we are saying, There is a transcript of this Buzzsprout episode provided for your convenience.

Send us a textComparison is the thief of joy—especially in our spiritual lives. Drawing from Philippians 3:13-14, we explore why the backward glance can sabotage our forward progress in faith. "Forgetting what lies behind and straining toward what is ahead, I press on toward the goal..." Paul's words remind us that the Christian journey isn't about measuring up to others but pressing forward in our unique calling.Have you ever wished your spiritual growth came with a progress bar? Unfortunately, life doesn't work that way. Looking deeper at Jesus's parable of the talents reveals a profound truth: the master didn't compare the servants to each other, but evaluated each based on what they did with what they were given. This perfectly illustrates God's economy—we aren't judged against fellow believers but on our faithfulness with our unique measure of faith.The danger of what I call "comparison Christianity" lurks in our churches and social media feeds, tempting us to measure our worth against others' apparent success. This toxic mindset breeds offense, bitterness, and devastating battles with self-worth. Instead of gauging your spiritual progress by likes, acceptance, or church position, I challenge you to focus on the Father's business—sharing good news, encouraging others, and loving genuinely. When we're busy serving others, we simply won't have time to track our supposed progress or compare ourselves. You are who God says you are—not what comparisons suggest. Join us daily for more encouragement as we journey together in faith.Support the show

In this week's episode we honor the importance of men and masculine traits for a functioning society and human survival, for productive and enjoyable interactions, and for the sake of diversity. That's right, Nafees Alam joins Elizabeth to talk about men--men in the gym, men in the classroom, men and ideology, men's portrayal in the media, masculinity, and relationships. We use as a jumping off point an article about the importance of both belonging and uniqueness. The author argues that young men may feel excluded and unvalued in the current socio-political environment.  When society's focus shifts to include and pay tribute to the distinctiveness of some (e.g. women, BIPOC, LGBTQ+), the special and important contributions of other individuals and groups may naturally be set aside. Elizabeth and Nafees admit to seeing the basic human needs of belonging and uniqueness reflected in their own behavioral choices and preferences and wonder if this an unavoidable cycle inherent to human societal development.  If so, can we all (particularly men in today's society) find ways to define and nurture our own sense of belonging and uniqueness so that cycles will be less personally and socially costly?  Nafees helps us close on a positive note because above all, he believes in a resilient society.Podcast notesVersteegen, P.

Notes from James:Here's the truth: if my great-great-great grandfather had written anything—just 10 pages about his daily life—I'd treasure it like gold. And I promise, your great-grandkids will feel the same about your story.You don't need to be a celebrity to write something that matters. You just need to be honest. Whether you're sharing how you survived grief, learned to say no, built new habits, or rebuilt your life after failure—your story could help someone else. And it could help you just as much.Episode Description:In this part one of a two-part episode, I walk you through the frameworks I've used in books like Choose Yourself and The Power of No, and show you how other authors—AJ Jacobs, Annie Duke, Susan Cain—infused autobiography into books that went on to change people's lives.I also break down the different types of autobiographical books—from traditional memoirs and mini-memoirs, to autobiographical fiction and nonfiction hybrids—and I explain how bestselling books like Atomic Habits, The Puzzler, and Man's Search for Meaning are all, at heart, autobiographies.This episode is part motivation, part masterclass in storytelling, and part therapy. If you've been sitting on a life story, this is the sign you've been waiting for.Oh, and yes, I'll even give you writing prompts and reflection questions to help you actually start.I also created a book-writing course: How to write and publish a book in 30 days.If this episode gets you thinking, share it with someone who has a story to tell.What You'll Learn: Why writing a memoir isn't about being famous—it's about being authentic How to turn life events, trauma, and setbacks into powerful narrative fuel The 5+ major types of autobiographical books (and how to pick yours) Why adding personal stories makes your writing more marketable, memorable, and meaningful The exact questions to ask yourself before you start writingTime Stamps00:00 Why Write an Autobiography?00:47 The Value of Personal History02:46 Memoirs and Mini Memoirs10:21 AI and Autobiographical Writing17:14 Unique Perspectives and Philosophies21:07 Opportunities Through Writing28:03 Defining Your Mission and Purpose30:22 Reflecting on Life's Important Events38:52 Overcoming Adversity and Difficult Situations45:16 Crafting Your Unique AutobiographyAdditional ResourcesHow to write and publish a book in 30 days.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Beatriz was diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis. It began at 16 when she heard a crack in her knee while playing tennis. By 23, her knee became severely swollen with synovial fluid, making walking difficult. After multiple knee scopes and a diagnosis of villonodular synovitis, she eventually saw a rheumatologist who diagnosed her with rheumatoid arthritis. She began treatment with sulfasalazine, prednisone, and later methotrexate, but her condition worsened. When her doctor recommended Humira, she refused, scared by the side effects. She always wondered why she couldn't live normally and was determined to find a way to recover her health. After two knee replacements, she tried various approaches—gluten-free diet, veganism, juicing—all with limited success. She then discovered the Wim Hof method and began challenging herself with ice baths. Following her second knee replacement, she started keto and joined a CrossFit gym with physiotherapy. She trained consistently despite the pain, building a supportive community. Her health improved significantly—she could run again, her elbows straightened, and she reduced her medications. After three years on keto, when some symptoms returned, she switched to a carnivore diet. Under medical supervision, her inflammatory markers decreased, and her symptoms almost disappeared. She now follows a lion diet (primarily ruminant meat) and has her blood markers under control. Beatriz is now a health coach, pursuing certification in SMHP and Carnivore nutrition, using her journey to help others with autoimmune conditions.

[40:30] Evolution of the senior living business involvement. Initial capital raising for healthcare deals leading to a role at Meridian Senior Living.

[45:20] Parallel development of Bookhill Park and how relationships from the senior housing business led to healthcare lending deals. [46:00] Bookhill Park's unique lending advantage in the senior housing space: Ability to potentially take over management due to the operating company connection. [46:30] Bookhill Park's partnership with regional banks to do larger "A/B" structure loans, effectively syndicating the "A" piece.

[50:15] Portfolio size of mobile home parks at its peak. [50:20] Opportunistic investment strategy leading to eventual exits from mobile home park projects. [50:45] Sale of a well-located mobile home park in Maryland after a short ownership period due to a strong offer. [51:30] Institutionalization of the mobile home park space over the last 15 years, leading to increased competition and higher acquisition costs, making current returns less attractive. [52:00] Challenges in the current mobile home park market: Increased broker presence and sellers having unrealistic price expectations. [52:50] Differences between mobile home park and traditional multifamily operations. [53:10] Section 8 in mobile home parks.

(501c3) in 2017 by the principals at Meridian Senior Living to grow their presence in senior housing and healthcare through tax-exempt opportunities.

[1:01:45] Moiz's experience in the ULI mentorship program with John as his mentor.

[1:04:40] Advice for young listeners on investment criteria and sponsor selection. Prioritizing the sponsor, location, and the sponsor's financial resources and "skin in the game."

[1:08:30] Ability to bring both equity and a guarantor to a deal. [1:08:45] The unique aspect of Moiz's ability to raise capital and bring a group of investors to deals. [1:09:50] Investment philosophy and what sets Moiz apart: Creativity without a fixed "box," focusing on the story and exit, and a commitment to doing what they say they will. [1:12:00] Clarification on partnership structure: While Stirling is his sole business, almost all other ventures involve partnerships. [1:12:30] Importance of having partners to bounce ideas off of.

[1:17:00] Limited personal exploration of AI but an interest in future use. [1:17:30] Use of a wealth management firm with strong technology to track personal and investment financials. [1:17:45] Effectively having a "family office" through their wealth management firm's tracking capabilities. [1:18:30] Ensuring his wife knows the location of important financial information. [1:19:00] Challenging trends and unique opportunities in investments and capital markets today: Uncertainty due to government changes, tariffs, and financial market fluctuations. Lending still tough, potential impact of rising unemployment on real estate. Possible positive impact on office sector. [1:20:30] Trends in the senior housing business: Demographic upside ("silver tsunami") but challenges with increasing labor, food, and supply costs not yet matched by rent increases. Impact of stock market and interest rates on affordability. Financing and construction costs remain high. [1:22:00] Dynamics in the skilled nursing space: Reliance on Medicaid with capped payments and potential cuts creating nervousness. [1:23:15] Growth potential in healthcare in general and the role of AI. [1:23:45] Growth potential in the energy business, including passive energy.

[1:26:00] The unique value of Moiz's diverse experience across institutional finance, small entrepreneurial groups, agency, and principal roles. [1:26:15] Accepting that not all ventures will succeed and the importance of learning from both successes and failures. [1:26:45] Most surprising lessons learned: No guarantees in business or life, and the critical importance of personally verifying key information rather than solely relying on team members or partners. [1:28:30] Advice to his 25-year-old self: Be curious, be patient, be a hustler, slow down (balance opportunism with thorough execution), and be passionate. [1:29:55] Priorities of family, work, and giving back: Family is paramount with a focus on spending time with his children. Strong emphasis on giving back in the education space, both domestically and internationally. [1:30:30] Supporting various educational organizations. [1:31:30] Final question: What would a billboard on the Capitol Beltway say? "Trust your gut."
