Today's guest, IFBB Fit Model Pro Sami Clements, has spent more than a decade immersed in the fitness industry not only as an athlete, but as a coach, mentor, business owner, and mom. She began her career as an elementary school teacher while simultaneously building her career in fitness, eventually making the transition into coaching full-time. Today, she serves as the COO of Team Fitbliss and has spent years coaching women through lifestyle changes, competition prep, and pregnancy and postpartum. Her own bodybuilding journey began in 2016 in bikini, where she competed across several seasons while also navigating some of the biggest transitions of her life including becoming a mother. After stepping away from the stage following her final bikini season in 2022, she eventually found her way back when the Fit Model division was introduced. In 2025, she jumped back into competition and worked her way through an incredibly busy season competing across regional and national stages before ultimately earning her IFBB Pro Card in fit model at Masters Nationals. But I think what makes her story especially interesting isn't the placings or the Pro Card It's the perspective she's developed through years of competing and coaching I'm excited to get into with her today     Quick recap The episode featured a conversation between Celeste and Sami, focusing on Sami's journey in the fitness industry, her transition from bikini to fit model divisions, and her experiences as a competitor, coach, and mother. Sami shared insights into her motivations for competing, the importance of enjoying the process over focusing solely on placings, and how motherhood has influenced her approach to bodybuilding. She discussed the challenges and rewards of balancing family, work, and competition, emphasizing the value of sustainability, flexibility, and grace in both training and life. Sami also reflected on her recent success in earning her pro card in fit model, the emotions tied to that achievement, and her plans for future growth in the sport. The conversation highlighted the significance of mindset, support systems, and the lifestyle habits that contribute to long-term success and fulfillment in bodybuilding. Fitness Competitor Interview Insights Celeste interviewed Sammy Clements, who has over a decade of experience in the fitness industry as an athlete, coach, and mother. Sammy discussed her pre-stage routine, emphasizing the importance of letting her "light shine" and channeling the hard work and passion she puts into competing. She noted the difference in atmosphere between pre-judging and finals, explaining that after pre-judging, competitors become more relaxed and enjoy the experience more. Bodybuilding Competition Journey Begin Sami began competing in 2016 after hiring a bodybuilding coach who had helped a friend transform her body. She initially had no interest in competing but decided to take on the challenge as a way to push herself out of her comfort zone. After placing 5th in her first competition, Sami fell in love with the experience and found the motivation to continue competing. Bodybuilding Mindset and Competition Celeste and Sami discussed the mindset required for bodybuilding, emphasizing the importance of loving the process over focusing solely on placings. Sami explained how understanding the competitive nature of the sport helps shift focus to personal improvement rather than outcomes. They explored why some competitors become overly focused on results, attributing it to expectations from linear success in other areas and the difficulty of competing against more experienced athletes. The conversation concluded with Celeste asking Sami for perspective on knowing when to push harder versus when to pull back and reevaluate. Competitive Season Reevaluation Signs Sami discussed the signs that indicate it's time to reevaluate a competitive season, including when training becomes detrimental to daily life, hormonal disruptions occur, or when the process stops being enjoyable. She shared her personal experience from 2017-2018 when she continued competing despite physical and mental warning signs, which resulted in an unsatisfying experience on stage. Sami emphasized the importance of considering whether one can accept potential outcomes, including the possibility of not winning, when deciding whether to continue competing in additional shows. Bodybuilding Competition Journey Discussion Sami discussed her competitive journey in bodybuilding, reflecting on her performance at various shows including North Americans, Ben Wheater, and Nationals. She explained her strategic approach to choosing which shows to compete in, including deciding to attend NPC Universe to get feedback from judge Tyler, who had previously given her feedback at Nationals. Sami shared that Tyler's feedback at Universe was positive, suggesting she improve her front pose shape, which she was able to implement before her next competition. Fit Model Competition Benefits Sami discussed the benefits of competing in fit model compared to bikini competition, noting that fit model allows for a higher body fat percentage which is more sustainable over time. She explained that as a natural athlete, the fit model category better suits her goals and lifestyle, allowing her to maintain her cycle and make the competition more sustainable without resorting to performance-enhancing drugs. Sami credited her supportive husband and established fitness habits for helping her maintain this lifestyle, particularly given her responsibilities as a mother of three children. Athlete Transition and Habit Development Sami and Celeste discussed the challenges athletes face when transitioning between being in and out of preparation mode for competitions. Sami emphasized the importance of developing healthy habits outside of prep to make the transition easier, noting that athletes who view these habits as beneficial to their daily life rather than just for competition tend to maintain them more successfully. Celeste agreed, adding that helping athletes understand the broader benefits of these habits beyond just competition performance is crucial for long-term success. Sami's Teaching to Coaching Transition Celeste and Sami discussed Sami's transition from teaching to full-time coaching. Sami explained that she taught 3rd and 5th grade while also coaching in the evenings and early mornings, but her decision to fully commit to coaching was influenced by the birth of her first son in 2018, which provided the flexibility to focus more on her growing coaching business. Sami expressed that becoming a mother allowed her to pursue her passion for coaching while being present with her children, a decision she has not regretted. Postpartum Bodybuilding Competition Experience Sami shared her experience of competing in bodybuilding while pregnant and postpartum, explaining how she initially felt pressure to maintain her fitness identity as a coach but now advises others not to rush their postpartum recovery. She competed 14 months postpartum with her first son and later included her husband in a competition, though noted the different challenges they faced due to their different preparation needs. Sami emphasized that postpartum recovery is an all-consuming phase that feels permanent in the moment but passes quickly, and she has learned to be more present during this time rather than pushing herself to return to fitness too soon. Motherhood and Bodybuilding Perspective Sami discussed how motherhood changed her approach to bodybuilding and competition, emphasizing the importance of flexibility and prioritizing family over strict routines. She shared that being a mom taught her to be more adaptable and that competing should enhance her life rather than be a drain. Sami also explained how she coaches clients through challenging times by encouraging them to focus on their best effort given the circumstances, rather than perfection, and stressed the importance of realistic goals that clients can actually maintain. Balancing Motherhood and Bodybuilding Sami discussed balancing her roles as a mother and professional bodybuilder, explaining how prioritizing self-care ultimately benefits her family. She described her current work routine with FitBliss, which includes dedicated client check-ins, training programming, and team meetings, while maintaining a separate morning routine for her own fitness needs. Sami emphasized the importance of setting a balanced example for her children by being fully present in both her professional and personal life. Pro Card Journey and Advice Sami shared her journey to achieving her pro card at the Masters Nats competition, where she placed first after previously earning second place at Pittsburgh and Universe shows. She explained her decision to take a break before competing on the pro stage, wanting to enjoy her win and focus on balance rather than rushing into pro competition. Sami advised aspiring competitors to focus on enjoying the process and building relationships along the way rather than just chasing a pro card, and she provided her contact information for those interested in following her journey or coaching services.

I asked the clouds to disperse and about twenty minutes later to my amazement, they did. Manifesting sunshine actually worked! This story might make you wonder what’s actually possible when you stop complaining about your circumstances and start asking for what you do want. There’s a much bigger application for what I learned that can help you live the life you want. My Beach Day Started With a Dilemma My friend wanted to go to a specific beach that required a town sticker. I didn’t have one. Getting that sticker meant a trip to the town office, and I wasn’t in the mood for a line or bureaucratic energy. I didn’t want the hassle, but I decided to make it work. The morning started with a clear blue sky. By the time my friend arrived, clouds had rolled in. We drove to the tax assessor’s office anyway, and I braced myself for a wait. I opened the office door and to my surprise, there was a window available. Five minutes later I was back in my car with the sticker on my bumper. If you’ve ever stood in a town office line, you know five minutes is a small miracle. Disappointing Weather We arrived at the beach, plunked down our chairs and sat down under the clouds and strong wind. My friend immediately reached for a sweatshirt. Unfortunately, this wasn’t the perfect August beach day we’d hoped for. We could have packed up and spent time complaining about the weather. But we didn’t. Instead, we chatted for a while, catching up. Then I commented on the wind and my friend made a suggestion that was so interesting. She said, “Let’s talk to the wind and see if it has a message for us.” We settled in, closed our eyes, and tuned in. The message I received was about clearing. The wind was loosening what didn’t serve me, and the sand and water were there to ground me and clear old, stuck energy. My friend received something similar. Speaking to the Wind and Clouds From there, more ideas came about talking to the wind. We asked the wind to calm down. Then the sun popped through a small hole in the clouds – it was like a sun doughnut hole. A thought thought came to me – ask the clouds to create more holes for the sunshine. And the sun did break through several more times. We didn’t leave didn’t fixate on these requests. Just asked and went back to chatting. We kept our feet in the sand and enjoyed what was. Eventually, I decided to just go for it and asked the clouds to dissipate. I asked, “Don’t you want to disperse and clear so we can see blue sky and sunshine? Come on, I know you want to do that.” I said this in a fun and teasing, playful way. Then my friend and I became reabsorbed in conversation and forgot all about it. What Happened 20-Minutes Later About twenty minutes later, I looked up and realized the wind had calmed to a breeze. When did that happen? And suddenly, the sky above us was blue. Previously, the clouds that had been parked overhead and totally motionless for hours. But now they were at the far edges of the visual sky. Now, could there be a meteorological explanation? Maybe. But the experience itself was undeniable. For about 45 minutes, we sat in the warm, bright sunshine of a day late in August, on a day that had started out gray and blustery. I like to think I had something to do with that and take the credit. Then next thought was, why hadn’t I been more specific and asked for two hours of sun? Maybe that would have been possible. By this time, it was 4pm and the clouds had drifted back as the wind had picked back up. We felt done, so we packed up and headed home. The Lesson Was Bigger than the Weather Today, thinking back over these events, it hit me. How often do I do spend time complaining, rather than enjoying what is? And how often do I just ask for what I want rather than spending time resisting what is? The minute something goes wrong, I start talking about what’s wrong with it. I say how unfair it is, how frustrating it is, what isn’t working for me. I feel dissatisfied and resistant to what is happening. That’s okay. Sometimes you need to get something off your chest. But what comes after the venting matters just as much. Do you stop there? Or, do you start to focus on what you do want? This is a question about where you are putting your energy. Complaining, resisting, feeling frustrated, these are all energy drains if they continue for too long. When you share your complaints with everyone, you are pumping that energy out into  the Universe. “I don’t want this job” is a very different comment than “here’s what I do want.” The first keeps you circling the problem, while the second moves you to invest energy and time into what you do want. We could have spent that whole beach day complaining about the wind and the clouds. Instead, we engaged with what was in front of us, asked for something different, without a lot of expectations. We noticed what was happening, thought about what we could do to possibly change our circumstances and did that. And it worked! Put Your Energy Into What You Do Want I can’t prove these conversations and requests with the elements changed the weather. What I do know for certain is that our requests changed our experience of the weather. That shift, from resistance to engagement, from complaint to request, is available to you anytime, with everything. A ritual isn’t needed or a complicated spiritual practice. You don’t need to know exactly how something works. Simply notice when you’re spending your energy on what you don’t want, and redirect yourself toward what you do want. Picture it. Talk about it. Imagine it. Ask for it. Then leave space for something to magical to happen. When you imagine what you want, something shifts inside you. Your attention and energy changes. You begin looking for possibilities instead of problems. You become more open to synchronicities. You notice little openings that you might have missed before. We can’t control the weather, other people, or most circumstances. But we can control where we put our attention and how we use our energy. That might be a much bigger kind of power than controlling the weather ever was. You are far more powerful than you actually think. Remember that and go for what you want! FAQs – Manifesting Sunshine & Everyday Magic What does it mean to manifest sunshine? Manifesting sunshine means shifting your attention and energy toward the outcome you want, in this case sunshine and a calm breeze, rather than dwelling on the conditions you don’t like. It centers on changing your relationship to what’s happening while staying open to positive shifts. Can you really influence the weather with your thoughts? There’s no scientific evidence that personal intention changes weather patterns. What shifts is your experience. Focused attention and playful engagement can change your mood, your openness to noticing happy moments, and your willingness to stay present instead of leaving or shutting down. How do I start asking for what I want instead of complaining? Let yourself vent first because that’s normal and useful. Then pause and ask yourself, “What do I want instead?” Get specific, picture it, and speak it out loud or write it down. That single question shifts your energy from resistance into a more creative, positive force. What is a synchronicity, and how is this story an example of one? A synchronicity is a meaningful coincidence that feels connected, even without a clear cause-and-effect link. Getting a beach sticker in five minutes with no line, followed by clouds parting shortly after a playful request, are both small events that felt too well-timed to be random. Why didn’t the sunshine last longer? The sun and calm wind returned to their original pattern after about 45 minutes,. Maybe this was because the request wasn’t specific about duration. Clarity matters! Naming what you want, including how much and for how long, can shape the outcome more precisely. Key Takeaways Complaining about a circumstance and asking for something different are two separate steps. Do both, just don’t stop at the first one. You don’t need proof that your request “worked” to benefit from having made it. The shift in your own energy and attention is real either way. Getting specific matters. A vague request may bring a vague or short-lived result. Staying present and engaged, even when you don’t get an instant response, keeps you open to noticing the shift when it comes. You can’t control the weather, other people, or most circumstances, but you can always choose where you put your attention and energy next. { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@type": "FAQPage", "mainEntity": [ { "@type": "Question", "name": "What does it mean to manifest sunshine?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "Manifesting sunshine means shifting your attention and energy toward the outcome you want, in this case literal sun and calm weather, rather than dwelling on the conditions you don't like.

Dr. Charles Liu (astrophysics professor and host of The LIUniverse podcast) joins Mayim Bialik's Breakdown to reveal the physics of consciousness, time, & the multiverse!We explore the biggest scientific mysteries humanity is facing today:- How scientists are beginning to take disclosure into their own hands to gather evidence that could actually prove the existence of nonhuman intelligence- Why information about nonhuman intelligence is being released in such a confusing and dramatic way, and whether governments are intentionally communicating this way- Why there's still no scientific proof Earth has been visited by nonhuman intelligence, but why there's nothing irrational about thinking seriously about aliens- Could AI ever become conscious? What would scientists actually need to observe before saying it has consciousness?- What consciousness really is, the different levels of consciousness, whether consciousness creates us or we create consciousness, and why understanding how the brain processes information from our five senses may be the key to solving it- What death actually is, what collective consciousness could imply, and whether nonspeaking autistic individuals may be accessing reality in fundamentally different ways- Similarities between near death experiences and DMT, including the mystery of ego death- Whether there's something beyond memory that connects us to our past- Why time may not be as linear as we experience it, and how our brains shape our perception of time- The Many Worlds theory, why multiple universes may mathematically exist, the new scientific frameworks researchers are developing, how entropy could unlock these ideas, and what time travel between universes would actually require- Why scientists who are absolutely certain they're right may actually be hurting science itself- A scientific and philosophical approach to understanding people who claim they've been abducted by aliens- How we determine what truly has consciousness, and why that question affects how we should treat AI, animals, and potentially other forms of intelligence- Why humans experience romantic attraction and what may actually be happening beneath the surface when we feel drawn to another person- Physiology behind people who appear unusually sensitive to changes in entropy- Evidence, controversies, and scientific questions surrounding biofield therapy and whether intention could influence cancer cells- Why humans vary so dramatically in their physiology, and how that should change the way we approach trauma treatment- Why religion may have been a necessary social technology for human evolution- Why Godzilla reflects humanity's attempt to understand overwhelming forces like nuclear war and other events beyond our control- How much of reality is objectively shared, and how much is filtered through our own unique perceptionsIf you enjoy conversations that challenge your understanding of reality while staying grounded in science, philosophy, and evidence, this episode is for you!Dr. Charles Liu's podcast, The LIUniverse: https://theliuniverse.podbean.comPre-Order Dr. Charles Liu's latest book, (Super) Natural Science: The Real Science of Superheroes, Mythic Creatures, and the (Sci-Fi) Universe: https://a.co/d/08pHA0SpOther recent books by Dr. Charles Liu:- The Cosmos Explained: A History of the Universe from its Beginning to Today and Beyond: https://a.co/d/00qyXcOG- The Handy Quantum Physics Answer Book: https://a.co/d/0gu4Fl5zSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Talking Big Bang Theory spinoffs to superhero suits and 3D-printed icicles — costume design 'behind the seams' at its best! Costume designer Valerie Klarich returns to Voice of Costume to unpack her wild ride designing "Stuart Fails to Save the Universe," the HBO Max spinoff of The Big Bang Theory. Valerie shares how a decade-long friendship with Lauren Lapkus (Orange Is the New Black) led to the job of a lifetime, and how she battled imposter syndrome before landing it. She dives deep into the creative process behind dressing familiar characters across wildly different dimensions — post-apocalyptic wastelands, 1950s primitive worlds, and comic-book superhero universes — all while honoring original designer Mary Quigley's iconic Big Bang Theory looks for nostalgic fans. Hear how Valerie built roughly 75 costumes for a single 25-minute episode, used 3D body scanning and fabric printing to create Mr. Freeze's icicle-textured suit, and paid tribute to classic Stuart Bloom with an exact plaid-and-robot-tee callback. Plus, behind-the-scenes stories of dressing guest stars Penn & Teller, Weird Al, and Wil Wheaton (including his surprise Star Trek reunion with director Jonathan Franks!). Valerie also opens up about leading a 17-person costume department with collaboration and humor at its core, and teases what's ahead for season two.  A must-listen for costume design lovers, Big Bang Theory fans, TV production nerds, and anyone curious about the magic of superhero costume creation.

Dr. Charles Liu (astrophysics professor and host of The LIUniverse podcast) joins Mayim Bialik's Breakdown to reveal the physics of consciousness, time, & the multiverse!We explore the biggest scientific mysteries humanity is facing today:- How scientists are beginning to take disclosure into their own hands to gather evidence that could actually prove the existence of nonhuman intelligence- Why information about nonhuman intelligence is being released in such a confusing and dramatic way, and whether governments are intentionally communicating this way- Why there's still no scientific proof Earth has been visited by nonhuman intelligence, but why there's nothing irrational about thinking seriously about aliens- Could AI ever become conscious? What would scientists actually need to observe before saying it has consciousness?- What consciousness really is, the different levels of consciousness, whether consciousness creates us or we create consciousness, and why understanding how the brain processes information from our five senses may be the key to solving it- What death actually is, what collective consciousness could imply, and whether nonspeaking autistic individuals may be accessing reality in fundamentally different ways- Similarities between near death experiences and DMT, including the mystery of ego death- Whether there's something beyond memory that connects us to our past- Why time may not be as linear as we experience it, and how our brains shape our perception of time- The Many Worlds theory, why multiple universes may mathematically exist, the new scientific frameworks researchers are developing, how entropy could unlock these ideas, and what time travel between universes would actually require- Why scientists who are absolutely certain they're right may actually be hurting science itself- A scientific and philosophical approach to understanding people who claim they've been abducted by aliens- How we determine what truly has consciousness, and why that question affects how we should treat AI, animals, and potentially other forms of intelligence- Why humans experience romantic attraction and what may actually be happening beneath the surface when we feel drawn to another person- Physiology behind people who appear unusually sensitive to changes in entropy- Evidence, controversies, and scientific questions surrounding biofield therapy and whether intention could influence cancer cells- Why humans vary so dramatically in their physiology, and how that should change the way we approach trauma treatment- Why religion may have been a necessary social technology for human evolution- Why Godzilla reflects humanity's attempt to understand overwhelming forces like nuclear war and other events beyond our control- How much of reality is objectively shared, and how much is filtered through our own unique perceptionsIf you enjoy conversations that challenge your understanding of reality while staying grounded in science, philosophy, and evidence, this episode is for you!All the Buzz, None of the Booze — get 15% off your first order at http://kavahaven.com/breaker Head to https://Superpower.com and use code BREAK at checkout for $50 off your membership.

Mark, Nathan, and Lan discuss the 2026 fantasy film Masters of the Universe. Directed by Travis Knight, and starring Nicholas Galitzine, Camila Mendes, Idris Elba, and some butt worms, the movie focuses on what happens when a nice guy gets a lot of power. In this episode, they also talk about big budget adaptations, combining multiple screenplays, and fun movies. Enjoy!

In this fun, fast-moving episode of Reading With Your Kids, we're heading to Eternia—by way of your family's favorite reading chair. Jed welcomes syndicated cartoonists Stephan Pastis and Will Henry to celebrate their hilarious new illustrated middle grade novel, The Adventures of He‑Man and Porter #1: Skeletor Ate My Homework. Stephan shares how Porter Avery's obsession with Masters of the Universe action figures creates real trouble both at home and in Eternia—especially when Porter's dad confiscates the Power Sword and He‑Man suddenly loses his in the other world. Stephan and Will talk about what it's like to collaborate when both are used to doing everything themselves, from writing to drawing. They dive into the challenges of humor, the near-impossible odds of becoming one of only about 200 syndicated cartoonists in the U.S., why bikes and Battle Cat are so hard to draw, and how comics can be a lifeline for reluctant readers. Then we switch gears and welcome back Adina Oberman to celebrate her joyful board book H Is for Hanukkah: A Festival of Lights ABC Primer. Adina talks about weaving in Jewish traditions from around the world, why board books are powerful "mirrors and windows" for little ones, and how play-based, shared reading in early childhood lays the foundation for a lifetime of learning and empathy.

He traces his path from a Daily Show internship and five years in Marvel's licensing division during the Disney acquisition through work at Disney, Fox, and animation on Ben 10 and Niko and the Sword of Light. A science-fiction short story in Heavy Metal led to writing MOTU mini-comics for Mattel, where he has produced about fifty issues, created new characters, and worked with original creators. The talk ends with his short-story collection Nervous System, a Heavy Metal feature, graphic memoir Aloha, and thoughts on thriving as a hybrid corporate-creative.#MOTU #HEMAN #MINICOMIC #skeletor Support the show

Last summer the new He-Man movie kind of failed at theaters. Stephen enjoyed the film! Others did not care so much, especially if they didn't grow up in the 1980s. But last week, after the death of voice actor Peter Cullen, fans celebrated the legacy of Transformers. And last month, the Masters of the Universe remake film wielded the power of Grayskull to rule streaming media. No matter your age, big franchises from forty years ago have shaped the fantasy worlds we know today. How can Christians look back on this era with discernment and appreciation for good nostalgia? Episode sponsors Enclave Publishing: Winter's Dawn by Morgan L. Busse The Guardian of Ailos by Michael B. Foss Etania’s Worth by M. H. Elrich Mission update September 2026 book quest for The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers Subscribe free to get updates and join the Lorehaven Guild 1. Of note: some fans truly did miss the '80s For many of you, the 1980s came and went before you were born! Stephen and Zack lived through most of the 1980s decade. And yet both of them only remember portions of the time. For his part, Stephen knew only the 1980s homeschool culture. It was the neighbor kids who had He-Man and Rainbow Brite Alas, Stephen never knew that fandom or any of the others, really. And he only vaguely recalls some of these obscure/old franchises. So if he sounds like a distant anthropologist, that is the reason! 2. From Star Wars to He-Man and beyond Recap: George Lucas and Kenner created modern toy franchises. Mass factories, network TV, and cable made a kids’ merch boom. Aside note: some Christians had some legit/silly concerns about it. Mattel lost on Star Wars, but made its own franchise: He-Man. This blended John Carter, DnD, mysticism, and superheroes. Meanwhile, other boys’ and girls’ brands took over toy stores. Zack's notes about growing up in the 1980s and any toys he had. Last week beloved voice actor Peter Cullen (Transformers) died. Fans love his sincere voice for “gentle, powerful” Optimus Prime. That plus GI Joe, despite flaws, did seem to honor real heroism. Masters of the Universe (2026) failed in theaters, but has since found its power on streaming services. 3. Now many fans really do miss the 1980s Most of these franchises were firmly in fantasy and sci-fi genres. Without their popularity, fantasy genres may not be popular today. Eventually, He-Man got shoved out by Ninja Turtles and others. Somehow the Ninja Turtles find new life, while He-Man struggles. The new film version from Prime Studios faltered in theaters. Stephen liked this flawed fantasy, which did hit a streaming boom. Meanwhile, ’80s nostalgia steers new stories like Stranger Things. Maybe people want to feel a simple life without 2020s technology. Some of them also want a simpler morality of good vs. bad guys. But back in the actual 1980s, critics didn't like simplistic morality. And some “80s nostalgia” also forces in the 2020s moral disorder. Every era has common graces that are better perceived with time. All eras also have unique idols, such as godless/mystical heroism. As you grow older, beware the “good old days” temptations. Do recall Ecclesiastes 7:10: “Say not, ‘Why were the former days better than these?' For it is not from wisdom that you ask this.” Com station Top question for listeners Do you have a favorite 1980s fantasy?

No Matter How Deep Your Hole, that You have Dug for Yourself, You Can Call on God the Creator of the Universe for Help MESSAGE SUMMARY: Prayer is your conduit for communion with God. Through prayer, you are in God's Presence; and you can invite His help in your life's situations. The best way to learn how to have this communion with God is to just do it and use your normal conversational words; however, the words of Scripture are powerful and work strongly. Just pray with your heart in conversation with God. Jonah, in Jonah 2:1-2, models for us that no matter how deep our situational hole, which we have dug for ourselves, we can call on God the Creator of the Universe for help: “Then Jonah prayed to the LORD his God from the belly of the fish, saying, ‘I called out to the LORD, out of my distress, and he answered me; out of the belly of Sheol I cried, and you heard my voice.'".   TODAY'S PRAYER: Lord, I now take a deep breath and stop. So often I miss your hand and gifts in my life because I am preoccupied and anxious. Grant me the power to pause each day and each week to simply rest in your arms of love. In Jesus' name, amen. Scazzero, Peter. Emotionally Healthy Spirituality Day by Day (p. 132). Zondervan. Kindle Edition. TODAY'S AFFIRMATION: Today, because I am filled with the Holy Spirit, I will not be controlled by my Self-Centeredness. Rather, I will walk in the Spirit's fruit of Love. “The fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control.” (Galatians 5:22f).

His current interest is in open quantum systems and the application of quantum mechanics in biology. He is a prominent author and broadcaster. He is a regular presenter of TV science documentaries, such as the Bafta nominated Chemistry: a volatile history, and he hosts the long-running weekly BBC Radio 4 program, The Life Scientific.  He has written 15 books on popular science and the history of science, between them translated into twenty-six languages. His new book is On Time: The Physics That Makes the Universe Tick. In this episode, we focus on On Time. We discuss what time is, according to Physics; whether time has a direction; what it means that time is relative; how gravity affects time; what it would be like to fall into a black hole; how we measure time; whether time has a beginning and an end; and whether the Universe is deterministic. We also talk about whether it is possible to reconcile quantum mechanics, relativity, and thermodynamics. Finally, we discuss whether time travel is possible, and we talk about unanswered questions in the physics of time.--A HUGE THANK YOU TO MY PATRONS/SUPPORTERS: PER HELGE LARSEN, ADAM KESSEL, MATTHEW WHITINGBIRD, ARNAUD WOLFF, TIM HOLLOSY, HENRIK AHLENIUS, ROBERT WINDHAGER, RUI INACIO, ZOOP, MARCO NEVES, COLIN HOLBROOK, PHIL KAVANAGH, SAMUEL ANDREEFF, FRANCIS FORDE, TIAGO NUNES, FERGAL CUSSEN, HAL HERZOG, NUNO MACHADO, JONATHAN LEIBRANT, JOÃO LINHARES, STANTON T, SAMUEL CORREA, ERIK HAINES, MARK SMITH, JOÃO EIRA, TOM HUMMEL, SARDUS FRANCE, DAVID SLOAN WILSON, YACILA DEZA-ARAUJO, ROMAIN ROCH, YANICK PUNTER, CHARLOTTE BLEASE, NICOLE BARBARO, PAWEL OSTASZEWSKI, NELLEKE BAK, GUY MADISON, GARY G HELLMANN, SAIMA AFZAL, ADRIAN JAEGGI, JOÃO BARBOSA, JULIAN PRICE, HEDIN BRØNNER, FRANCA BORTOLOTTI, URSULA LITZCKE, SCOTT, ZACHARY FISH, TIM DUFFY, SUNNY SMITH, JON WISMAN, WILLIAM BUCKNER, LUKE GLOWACKI, GEORGIOS THEOPHANOUS, CHRIS WILLIAMSON, PETER WOLOSZYN, DAVID WILLIAMS, DIOGO COSTA, ALEX CHAU, CORALIE CHEVALLIER, BANGALORE ATHEISTS, LARRY D.

Roy Stemman, former editor of Psychic News, is author of Spirits and Spirit Worlds, Reincarnation: True Stories of Past Lives, Spirit Communication, One Soul Many Lives, Mysteries of the Universe, Healers and Healing, Medium Rare: The Psychic Life of Ena Twigg, and (with George Chapman) Surgeon From Another World. Here he describes the relationship between the British spiritualist movement and the Anglican Church, beginning with a report commissioned by the Church in the 1930s. In 1967, the Episcopal Bishop of California, James Pike, publicly reported on his communications with his deceased son through the mediumship of Ena Twigg in London. Pike gave up his position as Bishop to pursue other studies, including after-death communication. Later, in a dramatic event, he became lost in the desert in Israel. After his death, but before his body was discovered, he appeared in spirit to Ena Twigg. New Thinking Allowed host, Jeffrey Mishlove, PhD, is author of The Roots of Consciousness, Psi Development Systems, and The PK Man. Between 1986 and 2002 he hosted and co-produced the original Thinking Allowed public television series. He is the recipient of the only doctoral diploma in "parapsychology" ever awarded by an accredited university (University of California, Berkeley, 1980). He is also the Grand Prize winner of the 2021 Bigelow Institute essay competition regarding the best evidence for survival of human consciousness after permanent bodily death. He is Co-Director of Parapsychology Education at the California Institute for Human Science.
