Read the full transcript here. Is nothing objectively true? What kinds of things are we trying to communicate with the stories we tell? Why do we feel the need to take a side on every issue? Which sorts of issues should be tied to our identities? How can we set the definitions for terms in a conversation, if possible? Should people just believe whatever works for them? Is it better to try to compensate for our biases or to reduce them? Should we strive to have lower confidence in ourselves and our abilities? How should we think about assigning blame when something goes wrong? When should we say yes or no to new opportunities? To what degree should we try to optimize our lives?Derek Sivers is an author of philosophy and entrepreneurship known for his surprising, quotable insights and pithy, succinct writing style.

Connectivity is the basis for the Internet of Things. And wireless connectivity is accelerating the adoption of IoT technologies, driving the digitalization of society with machine-to-machine (M2M) and machine-to-people (M2P) communications on a massive scale. With massive digitization, IoT connectivity management needs a strategy that mitigates the complexity increases as organizations broaden their scope and scale of IoT. This begins with establishing a platform capable of adapting to existing systems and managing devices across geographies, wireless carriers, and connectivity technologies. We call this platform Cisco IoT Control Center – a solution for the diverse and unique connectivity needs of IoT applications demanding nuanced decisions that consider global coverage, intelligent-switching capabilities, service delivery, pricing, and security. In an increasingly digital world, connectivity should be simple, reliable, and without borders. Finding the right IoT connectivity management platform solves many challenges by efficiently monitoring devices, automatically adjusting rate plans, and managing connections across carriers around the world.

This is a general reading, the words I speak is allegorical, so take what you need (put your thing down, flip it and reverse it) and leave what you don't. Either way, may this reading aid you along your journey. This is a general card reading that can pertain to anyone and anything (#Aries, #Taurus, #Gemini, #Cancer, #Leo, #Virgo, #Libra, #Scorpio, #Sagittarius, #Capricorn, #Aquarius, #Pisces) **If you'd like to support me and the growth of my podcast become a monthly supporter, donate to (Cashapp: $MedusaAsudem9), or simply tune in to my episodes. Any and all support is greatly appreciated. I'm currently not taking any personal readings but if you'd like a question featured on the podcast then email me at zalimanoree@gmail.com *Prefer questions of inner/personal work/development, not external pertaining's please. (I'm not in the business of telling you any lottery numbers, when Tyrone or Jane is coming back, nor if you're cleared of any health related issues.)** Welcome! I am, Medusa_Asudem. I channel general tarot card readings for those that may need guidance along their journey from my higher self for your higher selves. My intent is to bring forth messages that are for the purpose of directing and inspiring people to want to embark on their own personal inner work in order to detach and release from things that are of no use for our highest selves. (Through shadow work, inner work, soul searching, cleansing and healing of past and present experiences) Although I may deliver these messages, it is you that have the power of choice and you are the creator of your own reality/fate/journey. Disclaimer: These messages may not always resonate with you, that's fine. My advice would be to learn tarot yourself for you know you better than myself or anyone else. Lastly, this is for person's 18 and over. This reading is for your entertainment only.

HIGHLIGHTSGetting the sales bug as a child by selling Pokemon cardsSales training is not a silver bullet Organizations need frameworks and structure to survive All SDRs struggle with rejection, but they can overcome itThe goal is to win more weeks than you loseWake up and work early to get ahead of everybody elsePositive affirmation works, but you need to put in the workOur subconscious is more intelligent than our consciousHow to build an authentic and consistent brandDealing with burnout and other mental health issuesGetting called out for being in "space mode"Companies need to walk the diversity talkQUOTESMorgan: "78% of people forget the knowledge that they've learned within a training session after. It's because it's a lot of information. There is really no silver bullet on this because each organization is different. However, what I found to be the easiest is you have to give them structure, frameworks, and systems to implement. I can give you a tip, that's great. But it's not enough." Morgan: "Having a grasp on your emotions, and what I like to call keeping a steady mindset, is the biggest gap that a lot of people have because it is hard to get your emotions in check. But that's what's gonna lead you to success." Morgan: "There's no one to be upset with but yourself. If you're gonna set an affirmation, you actually have to do the work still. This isn't a genie. This isn't Aladdin." Morgan: "Every single thing that you write down, every single thing that you say, feeds into your subconscious. So if you keep telling yourself I'm not good at this, I can't do it and you're like, joking, that actually is detrimental to your success. Because now the subconscious is picking up the 'I can't do this'. So now your conscious is gonna find ways for you not to do it."Morgan: "I'm just sharing my journey. I'm not coming from the place of 'I'm a guru or expert'. I'm coming from a place of like 'This is my journey and I'm just sharing it and there are results in this journey. But I'm not telling you I'm the best of all time.'"You can learn more about Morgan in the links below.LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/morganjingram/Website: https://joinjbsales.com/If you're listening to the Peak Performance Selling Podcast, please subscribe, share, and send us your feedback.LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/jordanbenjamin/Website - http://mycoreos.com/Podcast - https://www.mycoreos.com/podcastEmail - Jordan@MyCoreOS.comTwitter - https://twitter.com/jbenj09

Tea bags are useful for WAY more than just brewing. Here are 5 more ways you can back your tea bags to work. 6. Freshen up your drawers and car For super-fresh dresser drawers, place a dry tea bag inside to add a soft scent. Try herbal, floral, or fruity teas for this, like Lipton's Peach Mango Tea. The same goes for your car, where you can hang tea bags from the rearview mirror—because you know that pine tree is a couple years old. 7.

The natural properties in tea leaves mean tea bags are as amazing outside of your mug as they are inside of it. Don't toss out your used—or unused—tea bags; put them to work instead! Here's how. 1. Eliminate funky fridge smells You might normally turn to baking soda to deodorize your refrigerator, but tea can actually do the same job. Fill an open container with a few used tea bags, place it inside your fridge, and that funky smell will be gone in no time. 2.

Planning & Executing work, school, life flow Hello and welcome to warrior divas real talk for real women. This is your host Angie Monroe and I am excited to be here with you today as we unpack a few fun things that we're going to talk about. The just an early reminder as we get going on in the show, you can always find out more information about what we do who we are how to get in touch with us by going to divas impact com that is divas impact.com you can listen to the podcast you can read our blogs, you can send us messages and learn more about our conference. This Coming up. So, I am going to get us started today. You know, when I started divas impact a few years ago, I told people you know, we want to change the way women think and speak about themselves and others. And it sounded all nice and cute. I talked about, I told them we would talk about things like faith, family, fun, fitness, fashion, food and a lot of other words that begin with F and some that doubt. And, you know, over the time that we've started this podcast, we've talked about several different things. We've talked about freedom. We've talked about finances a little bit. We haven't quite gotten into that one yet. But we haven't talked about fun, and it's the end of summer, schools just got back into session. And one of the things that I'm starting to realize is if parents don't have a good balance in their life work, and I'm not even calling that a balance, I'm calling it flow a work-life flow. Then there, they don't give one to their kids. So this was a little bit more evident this year. My daughter has two kids that are starting kindergarten and I don't have any kids in elementary, junior high or high school anymore. My youngest ones going back to college again. But as we started looking at, how do you plan, when you've gone from a schedule that summer vacation, summer camps, kids home all the time, kids eating you out of house and home, to now you have to plan a structured environment. You have to make sure they're in bed by a certain time. You have to make sure that their homework is done, you have to make sure that you have that time with them. There was a video up the other day on social media about a kid that was getting in trouble with the law because he had posted something in a video game he had written Something out in a video game. And the cops were there. And they were talking to him and his mom and his mom were saying he's just a little boy, he was about 1516 years old. He's just a little boy. And so there was this whole big dynamic that was going on in there. So how do we, if we're not going to invest in time, energy and effort into our life flow to manage our own time? How are we going to teach our children and lead by example for our children to manage their time for their work-life flow? So over the summer, a lot of kids get up, they sleep and lay, they eat and eat and eat and eat. They play video games, they watch TV, if the scheduling around the house is good, they go to camps if they if they don't have the money for camps and they play outside until it's time to come Man, I mean, that's what we did when we were growing up, right? The generation that we had, we didn't have all those video games we had Atari. I'm dating myself there at Atari, Nintendo, things like that. But we didn't have the things that kept us indoors. So summer meant hanging out by the pool, going to the lake playing outside playing soccer, playing baseball, whatever it was, we went outside, we played until our mom whistled, and if we were further away than our moms whistle, we knew we were in trouble, right? So we also knew that when the sun started going down, it was time to go home. The other thing we knew that every parent in the neighborhood had the ability and the permission from our parents to whoop our butts if we missed in their area. So I'm not saying today's parenting is bad. Today's parenting is different than what we had back in my day. So With the challenges of YouTube, and yes, this is on the YouTube channel as well, of YouTube, of video games of cellular devices and tablets and all the things that we have come into our home. How do we find a way to make space for them to make decisions on their own, not just based on what's being fed to them from these devices, right? So, my daughter, she's moved into a new home, she's set up her home with her and her kids and all that stuff getting ready for school, and she had to figure out okay, what do I do for meal plans? How do I set this up? And as I was telling a friend about this, they're like, you know, that's some information that would help me. So I'm going to go over the next few minutes here and just tell you a little bit of how I planned out a week when my kids were growing up to see if that might help some of you parents out there That is back in the thick of things back to school sports starting up all that stuff and you don't know quite how to juggle it. So like I said, I had three kids that are raised. Then we had to bonus kids that lived with us at different times that road back and forth to practices. Their parents were single parents are worked odd hours and couldn't get them where they need to go. So we were those fill-in parents, so to speak. So whenever I got up on Saturday morning, you can choose whatever day of the week you want to do it. I prefer to do Saturday morning, I get up bright and early. I make a list of all the things we had planned for the week ahead. I'd look at the family calendar. I knew when practices where I knew when games were. I knew when they had to stay late at school. I knew everything that was going on from Sunday until the following Saturday, right? And so I would look at what all we had and then I started making meal plans based on what our schedule was. I didn't want to make a five-course meal on a night that we had softball practice, and had baseball games at the same time. No, I needed to have things in place. So Sundays was always a big meal, we'd have a roast or we'd have sometimes it would be like a sports weekend where my kids just needed the veggies for the day. And so Sunday was our day of rest, we'd get up we'd go to church, we'd come home, and I would have things in different crockpots in the house, I'd have wings and I'd have pulled pork for pulled pork sliders, and I'd have all these different things that they could just grab and go throughout the day. And they could rest. They could watch sports, they could do cut, catch up on homework, they could nap, they could do everything and there wasn't a structured time on Sunday for us to just have The formal dinners and everything. Now Mondays, always made sure the meals could be done in 30 minutes or less. So one of the other things I did was a lot of times we cooked up all of our meat for the week on Sunday. So whether I was smoking a brisket or grilling some chicken or making hamburger patties up already, all of that stuff was already done on the weekend, I'd brown up hamburger meat or sausage or whatever to throw in with spaghetti later on the week. There were a lot of things that I did when I had bigger spaces of time, then I did during the week. So then all I had to do is come in warm-up some meat and put on the plate the vegetables that we needed, and if you buy fresh vegetables, I know we've been taught that cans are good. Even frozen is good. They're not there are too many preservatives in there. Fresh frozen is better than canned, and fresh is better than frozen. I'm going to tell you that 100 times over. I know you're if you're watching on YouTube, you're looking at me going, what does she know about this? I'm just telling you, it will make a huge difference in what you're doing. But taking some green beans and pairing it with a chicken, having a salad that you can put on the plate that's already pre-made. You can do a lot of the prep work well ahead of time to where you're just throwing it all together, right. So when the kids come home from school, you're like, Yeah, but when they come home from school, they're starving and they want a snack and all that stuff. We had a basket that's set on our counter. They came in, they could get a certain drink off of a certain shelf in the refrigerator, and then they could grab one snack out of the basket on the counter. And that was all they got until dinnertime, that couldn't eat us out of house and home. That's what they got. There are nights that we had burgers where we would pack burgers in Ziploc bags and take them to the ballpark with us because That's what we could afford to do. Yeah, we throw bags of chips or fruit or whatever with them, but it was stuff we could do. So finding a way to work with your schedule and still feed your family on a budget, because a lot of the times we're looking at things going, why can't feed my family healthfully on a budget? hogwash, you absolutely can. The thing is, is knowing how to do that and knowing where to look for these things. All the grocery stores sell these things in, in the organic and in a non-organic way. If you can't afford the not the organic, don't get organic, get the other ones. But find a way to find a place to start is what I'm telling you. People are like well, I can't eat pasta. I can't eat pasta. That's great. Good zucchini. They have this little thing called a spiral. Iser you You can buy one that fits in your hand spits on the counter, you put it through the spiral Iser, it makes these noodles you throw in the pan, they're done in five minutes, literally five minutes after the water's boiling. If you've gotten on the Insta pot craze, I made BBQ chicken the other night. I'm telling you 30 minutes frozen to cooked, completely cooked, it was all done. And that was me pulling it out of the pot ready to put it on the dish. Nice quick, easy things to keep you from going through the drive-thru. Here's the thing. A lot of us are so stuck on instant gratification ourselves. That's what we're teaching our kids. We go and we order in a box and we drive up to the window and we expect our food to be ready when we get to the window. And so we're disabling a huge generation of children that aren't going to have healthy foods made for them because all they're going to do is speak into a box and drive-thru window to get There, and we need to continue putting steps in place to educate ourselves and educate our kids on how to eat healthily. Now, I'm going to tell you some of the best meals we ever had. My mom and dad, my dad was a police officer. He didn't make a lot of money, my mom stayed home. Back then at it. I don't know if anybody's ever heard of the government cheese. It's kind of like a big block of Velveeta cheese type thing. And we'd have the block of government cheese that we got. My mom would make homemade flour tortillas. That my friend, my friend's mom taught her how to make. We had beans, like the beans that you buy in the store in the bag that you have to soak and then you cook. Well, we'd have been with a meal on Sunday, and then later on in the week, my mom would take those beans and refresh them. Yes, like by hand in a skillet, not in a can read fry them. And then she would take that mix about a half to a quarter to a half a pound of hamburger meat in with those three fried beans. We would have homemade salsa made from our garden because we had peppers and onions and tomatoes we grew in our backyard in this city. Just because you live in the city doesn't mean you can't have a garden. And nowadays a lot of cities have community gardens. So find yourself a community garden to get involved with because so you can learn about growing and educating yourself. So we had those things that we made and we did ourselves and those meals, we would take that that refried beans with the hamburger meat and the flour tortillas, spread it on there with some sausage and some cheese and have our homemade burritos. Those were some of our favorite meals. Another one was back in the day when spam. Now I don't recommend spam anymore but back when spam was cheap, it wasn't a novelty. We would get Kansas spam we would fry that up. We would have to make a sliced tomato sliced onion in a box of crackers and that would be our meal for the night. It's not about being over the top and trying to win Master Chef with your meals and having the perfect photo and all of that stuff. I shared a photo the other night my husband made he's trying to beat my recipe on pulled pork so he decided to smoke a pork shoulder and he brought it in and it had a great taste to it. All that stuff. It just didn't set up the way we would have expected it to had a great taste to it though. So I made the sandwich up with it, put it on the bun, poured some barbecue sauce over it, set it on the plate and the picture looks Amazing even though it was sitting on a styrofoam plate, the food was amazing. But it has, it's not about the pictures. It's not about even having all the right colors on the plate and all of that stuff. It's about finding a way to balance yourself and how you do it. So take a look at your calendar. Look at what can you do this night maybe, you need to do the grilled chicken with a salad and maybe a fruit cup. You can make up a thing of fruit salad on Sunday and it'll last for at least three to four days if you put in the right juices to keep it all going together. Do you? We did this week we did the pork shoulder on Sunday. We did some steak on Monday on. On Saturday. We did the pork shoulder on we did steak on Sunday we did the chicken on Monday, we went out to eat last night, celebrate my daughter, my friend's birthday. But tonight we're doing veggie packets. We're chopping up a whole bunch of vegetables, we're putting them together and we're pairing it with the leftover meat from those meals. Again, reuse leftovers. Don't just use them all at one time. Get your kids involved, have them be responsible for certain parts of the meal, whether it's setting the table, or whether it's helping to wash vegetables or get them ready in a pan or whatever it helps have them get involved. Now, a lot of the times they go Okay, well, that's great. You've made your meal plan for the week. What do you do? I said, Well, then I make my grocery list. Well, here's what I had. When I was growing up. I'd make my grocery list. And I had a spreadsheet that I knew at different parts of the store how the store was laid. out that I was going to. If I was in the dairy aisle, these are all the things I need from the dairy aisle. This is all I need from the meat. I'm a little obsessive-compulsive when it comes to my grocery list, all right. But here's what you have now. You have online ordering. You can go online, you can put your stuff in Walmart, at Albertsons, even Amazon, you can order ahead of time. You can tell them, you're going to come and pick it up at a certain time, and go get your food and you don't even have to walk in the store. Why is this important? Because it keeps you on task. You're not shopping at the store and wandering the aisles looking for things that you don't need. And another thing, if you're in the store, and you're going up and down the aisles, you're probably in the worst part of the store you can be at all the best food for you to be eating is going to be on the perimeter. The store. So you're your milk, your meat, your veggies, all of those things. If you look at a store, they're on the outer perimeter of the store. They're not on those aisles. So let's, let's explore some ways that you can make some wise choices for your meals. Ask your kids what they want. My one of the things my daughter's doing this week is some of the things some of the meals that they've made this week, they're saving some of the meats from that. And they're going to do make your pizzas this weekend. And so they'll have pepperoni and they'll have chicken and they'll even have some beef and some sausage and things like that from their meals this week that they've set aside to go with the meal on Saturday when they make their pizza and the kids are involved. And they've got the little Betty, Better Homes and Gardens, Junior cook cookbooks and Paula Deen Jr. cookbooks and It gets the kids excited about investing in food. I was at my daughter's house last night watching them didn't have to go to a PTA meeting last night. That was awesome. Because my daughter is now having to go to those things. Hahaha. But as I'm sitting there at the meat is there at the meeting the kids were going, we want a snack. I'm like, have you had a snack? Yeah, we had one when we got home. Well, but we want another one. I'm like, well, dinner so much here. You want me to fix you dinner? No, we want to have dinner with mom and dad. Here's the thing that a lot of you don't realize is the table. When you take time to sit at the table with your kids and have conversations about how their day went in putting cell phones away. Don't even let them come to the table. You sit there and have educated conversations with them. They will unveil their whole world to you. You just have to show that you're interested. I know some of you are sitting there going well, we don't have time to sit at a table. We don't have time to do this. Make time at least twice a week to do this. It's important. There are test results and, and surveys and all that stuff that shows that kids learn and grow better and better adjusted. When they have dinner around the table, their grades are better. There's so much that happens when you have that bonding time at the table. Some people look at you nowadays and go, well I don't even know my child. Well, when was the last time you sit down with your child, when was the last time you sit and had a conversation with him? Other than talking at them. So these are some of the things that we want to work on with the life flow, get them out from behind those video games have them being involved. Another thing that happened this week is a sporting goods store and an NFL player went shopping with some of the kids for our local youth sports activity, a youth community program we have here. You heard us talk about a couple of weeks ago when I had Tracy Robertson Coburn on Metsys peewee football and cheerleading Association. Every community has a sports league that doesn't matter if it's soccer, softball, baseball, across hockey, archery, whatever it is, they have these youth organizations that are important to the community. They're important because it's work kids learn to test their limits. It's where kids learn to believe in themselves and build self-confidence. They learn how to fail forward, they learn how to be successful, even when they're not winning. So there's a lot of things that come from being a part of these youth organizations. And I want to challenge every one of you You do not only put your children in one, but find a way to be invest involved yourself, whether it's as a team mom, a coach, and investor, whatever that may be. We have gained over 20 years of our 20 plus years of involvement in this organization. It's going, my husband's been involved for over 20 years, I've been involved probably over 40 years with this organization. We have had friends and loved ones that we trust to no end. And I have learned lessons from them. They have learned lessons from me. And we were the parents that help support each other when life got yucky, right. Sometimes people go well, that's my church, and that's great if your church is that way for you. But you know what, there's a lot of churches out there that just aren't that way for their people. So today I want to challenge every one of us to find a Way to feed our children and invest in our children, feed them with sunshine, make them get outside and play. Make them get out from behind the blue light of the computers in the video games, find a way to invest in them with time and energy, spit around the dinner table. Find a way to invest with them by feeding them healthy Whole Foods and find a way to invest your flow of life by knowing that you're going to touch generations with what you do today as their mom. As I said, I've been dealing with the cold over the last few days. And so my voice is a little cranky and a little congested today. So I apologize for all of that. But today before we get going I want to talk about our everyday diva I know the example of the importance of these things. Because my friend Kim Slater, who does all of our creative design here, her mom is somebody that helped instill some of these things and her mom is our editor for our magazine and our blogs and, and when we do our podcasts, she rewrites. She gives a fresh take on the podcast every week and the blogs that we do. And her name is Susie Tracy. And she is phenomenal at what she does. But she also knows the importance of spending time and investing in your children. And so she's our everyday diva today because we are benefiting right now of the investment she made in her daughter. And she's making now in her granddaughter and her daughter is making in her daughter See, we're not talking about divas impact being something that it's just you and me in a room and we're just going to talk and happen and it's going to be us getting our stuff done. Now what we're looking at is we're trying to make a shift, a cultural shift from where we're at right now, to doing better, being better, and paying it forward better. Then, then the last person. Now again, I'm your girlfriend, and I'm not telling you that your parenting bad, I would never call a mom out on parenting bad. What I would do is I would say, if you're struggling, let us know how we can help. And only you know if you're struggling there, well, that some of us may be able to see it. But until you're willing to admit you're struggling, you won't accept the help. So feel free to email us you can email us at podcast at divas impact com you can nominate an everyday diva, you can recommend a guest to be on our show. And you can send us your fun things, your family mealtimes, your special hacks, life hacks that you do to help your family stay on task and, and grow and develop and to have that good work-life flow, school life flow, whatever that is for you. And so today, I just want to thank you for joining us and being with us. And as always, I look forward to seeing you next time. Be a diva. make an impact.

This is the final Women’s Comics Month interview episode, featuring a full-length interview with Isabella Rotman. Her art is usually about the ocean, mermaids, crushing loneliness, people in the woods, or sex. She is author of the sexual health comic You're So Sexy When You Aren't Transmitting STIs, Not On My Watch: The Bystanders Handbook for the Prevention of Sexual Violence, Good to Know: A Zine of Useful Things, and many more.

This episode, we talk about this paper: A Few Useful Things to Know about Machine Learning

Today’s guest is Sheri Winston, wholistic sexuality teacher, founder of the center for intimate arts, and author of the award-winning book “Women’s Anatomy of Arousal: Secret Maps to Buried Pleasure”. We’re going to talk about how the sexual energy of a feminine person works. We’re also going to talk about the female anatomy - and you just might find out some things that you NEVER knew before. Sheri also brings her knowledge as a midwife and a massage therapist to bear on the topic of just how we might come to sexuality from a completely different perspective. I guarantee that unless you’ve already read Sheri’s book (and maybe even if you have) you’re going to learn something new today. Here are the highlights from my conversation with Sheri Winston:   What is wholistic sexuality? This is a way of seeing the sexual life force that emanates through us and around us at all times. When you’ve heard me talking about “the continuum” - this is it. We are always able to access this energy, and with our partners we are always connected, even when we’re not in the bedroom. Contrast that with “male sexuality” - This is the popular model for “how sexuality works” - and it represents a very masculine way of looking at sexuality. Quick turn-on, deep penetration, huge orgasms. However, feminine people have a completely different type of sexuality. What is feminine sexuality? Rather than a quick boil that starts at the center (masculine sexuality), feminine sexuality starts at “the edges” and heats up slowly, until the entire system is fired up. It can take a little while! So wholistic sexuality is: being able to recognize these different types of sexual energy and recognize where you and your partner fall on the spectrum - and then to take each other into account! How does a woman know when she’s actually ready to experience penetration? If you are “desperate” to have your partner inside of you, then you are ready. Anything before that and your entire system may not be quite ready. Also it should feel “completely fabulous” If a woman is “wet” does that mean that she’s ready to be penetrated? NO! In fact, lubrication is one of the earliest stages of arousal, but many more things need to happen in a woman’s body (along with lubrication) for penetration to feel completely pleasurable. It’s about the journey - so enjoy it! Did you know that women have as much erectile tissue as men? Along with erectile tissue that’s present all throughout the broad genital region, the clitoris is actually just the tip of an enormous clitoral network that extends throughout that part of a woman’s body. As an experiment, if you’re a woman (or partnered with a woman): See if you can observe all of the changes that are happening within a woman’s body as she is getting more and more aroused. Can you figure out where all (or at least some) of the erectile tissue is? Sheri Winston calls this a “herection”. :-) Timing is everything! For instance, there is a stage in arousal where the cervix gets pulled up and out of the way. When that happens, deep thrusting penetration can feel amazing! Before that happens - it can be painful! O1 vs O2...and beyond! How sensitive are you able to become to the levels of arousal when you bypass “Peak Orgasms” and allow your bodies to ride deeper waves of pleasure together, for more time? Arousal is an “altered state of consciousness”: And when you see it that way, you can understand why it can take time to make the shift, and why it’s an experience that can be deepened. Figure out what you need for yourself, and what your partner needs, to stay in and play with that state of consciousness - it’s a grand experiment! Here are some ideas for how to expand that altered state: How does changing the way that you’re breathing affect the sensation in your body? How does your state of relaxation affect things? Can you set the stage in different ways that connect you to a ritual of sensuality - to help deepen your presence, and ability to be absorbed in the moment? The power of sound: Making wide, open sounds can actually help your body relax - it’s part of an automatic response where the lower part of our body reciprocates the openness of the upper part of our body (our throat and mouth when we make those kinds of sounds) Set the container: Create an intention with your partner to close the space, energetically, to the rest of the world. That space and time when you are together is yours and yours alone, and other intruding thoughts/energies are not welcome. It can be a good idea to keep technology (phones, etc.) out of the bedroom. How to keep things “alive”: Be INTERESTING and INTERESTED! Cultivate your creativity and imagination AND your curiosity about your partner’s experience. Eye contact and kissing with tongue: Both magnify sexual energy and help induce the “altered state of consciousness” that we’ve been talking about. Dedicate Time - In long-term relationships, sexual connection “just happens” less and less, without attention. Dedicate time as frequently as possible to experiencing your partner’s sensual essence. Even just 5 minutes of eye-gazing is better than nothing. How do we handle shame? If you know that shame is an issue for you, recognize that it is at times for almost all of us! During the altered state of arousal, it can be a prime time for you to reprogram those parts of you - especially if your partner is prepared for those moments. Prepare positive statements that reverse the shame, and, as an example, you can have your partner whisper them to you (or yell them at you!). Whatever feels right. Debrief - LATER. You can always take time at a later moment to talk to your partner about what came up for you (or to ask your partner about what came up for them) - what worked, what didn’t, strategize for the future, and take a moment to affirm the depth of your love for each other.     Resources Sheri’s websites: www.intimateartscenter.com www.intimateartsonline.com Woman’s Anatomy of Arousal on Amazon www.neilsattin.com/arousal   Visit to download the show guide, or text “PASSION” to 33444 and follow the instructions to download the show guide.

Working in usability and user experience can give you some great insights into the product design process. Yet few organisations know how to take advantage of this information silo. As a user experience expert do you sometimes wish you could have more input into product ideas handed down from above? Ever wanted to have the ear of business strategists? Even be best friends with marketers and sales people? Stephen Cox explores some of the exciting things that can happen when the disciplines of usability and user experience are allowed to seep out into the realms of strategic and tactical design innovation. He approaches the field of ethnographic design research in practical terms illustrating how News Digital Media has come to embrace the idea of extensive customer research, and the benefits that this has brought to different levels of the organisation. You’ll see real world examples of what the team has achieved and learn how to connect some of the more esoteric and theoretical findings of research with tangible real world design solutions. Stephen Cox is the Design Research Lead at News Digital Media (NDM) in Sydney. His job involves working with the business to help extend the work of the user experience team from the reactive day-to-day project work into the areas of strategy and innovation. The design research team utilises a range of techniques and theories from the social sciences to help capture and understand the motivations of real people. Working with the user experience team, business units and business strategists, the design research team helps create practical, effective and innovative design solutions.
