Leave Wellness + Wisdom a Review on Apple Podcasts Power Quotes From The Show Wired to Win "We're wired to want to win. I take action every single morning to put myself in a successful position to manage whatever is thrown my way." - Michael Chernow You Can't Buy Time "What's the one thing in life that there is no way anyone has ever been able to purchase? Time. We're all given the exact same amount of time in a day. So if you want to to win in life, it requires an hour of self-indulgent, self-care time. Because when you can dedicate to that, you are going to show up a better human being." - Michael Chernow Why Addicts Feel In Control "When you are in active addiction, you have a sense of complete control, even though you're totally out of control. That sense of control comes from the ability to change how you feel. You know that there is a substance that will numb your feelings. So when you feel bad, you can easily make yourself feel good. When you feel good, you can easily make yourself feel great. And so in essence, you're playing God. You're controlling how you feel no matter what is going on around you." - Michael Chernow Links From Today's Show  Michael Chernow Kreatures of Habit - 20% OFF WITH CODE “WISDOM20" Dr. Russel Surasky The Big Book How to Know Higher Worlds by Rudolf Steiner 439 Khalil Rafati | From Homeless To Limitless: One Man's Spiritual Journey of Learned Helplessness to Powerful Humility The 5 AM Club by Robin Sharma   Josh's Trusted Products | Up To 40% Off Shop All Products Biohacking⁠ MANNA Vitality - Save 20% with code JOSH20 HigherDOSE - 15% off with the code JOSH15 PLUNGE - $150 off with discount code WELLNESSFORCE Pulsetto - Save 20% with code "JOSH" SaunaSpace - 10% off with discount code JOSH10 Ultrahuman Ring Air - 10% off with code JOSH Wellness Test Kits Choose Joi - Save 50% on all Lab Tests with JOSH Blokes - Save 50% on all Lab Tests with JOSH FertilityWize Test by Clockwize - Save 10% with code JOSH Tiny Health Gut Tests - $20 off with discount code JOSH20 VIVOO Health Tests - Save 30% off with code JOSH SiPhox Health Blood Test - Save 15% off with code JOSH Nutrition + Gut Health Organifi - 20% off with discount code WELLNESSFORCE SEED Synbiotic - 25% off with the code 25JOSHTRENT

If you've ever met a kid who could knit a scarf before they could read, you might already be familiar with this week's "cult." With their dreamy, arts-infused approach to education (think: seasonal festivals, storytelling over standardized testing), Waldorf schools promise a ~holistic utopia for young minds~. But behind the fairy tale façade lurks a past (and present) steeped in, oh y'know, anti-science ideology, claims of clairvoyance, weird "karma" stuff, problematic hierarchies, and a suspiciously rigid devotion to its 1920s founder, Rudolf Steiner. And that's just the beginning! This week, Amanda and Reese break down the culty undercurrents of Waldorf Schools with the help of former Waldorf educator Maggie Smith, who was kicked out of the movement and lived to tell the tale. Is Waldorf a harmless hippie haven? Or an expensive lesson on us vs. them dynamics? Tune in as we unravel its hand-spun, naturally dyed, organic threads! Subscribe to Sounds Like A Cult on Youtube!

Kelly sits down with Richard Cytowic, MD, Professor of Neurology at George Washington University and the author of “Your Stone Age Brain in the Screen Age.” “Screens act like secondhand smoke.”  “Waldorf Schools may be the best kept secret in education.”  “You cannot rush learning any more than you can accelerate thinking.” 

These schools combine an atypical education with a New Age spirituality called anthroposophy.

Hunter & I were fortunate enough to be able to sit down and have a conversation with the Waldorf teacher that taught my youngest son, Arvo, and was his mentor for several years when he was attending our local Waldorf School. Arvo would always come home recounting stories that his teacher, Mr. Ireneo De Leon, would tell him about growing up in his home country, the Philippines. There they seemed to have a much more tangible connection to the unseen world that Hunter and I found fascinating so we decided to ask him to come on The Melt and share these experiences and stories with us. We all met in the recording studio of our local library and recorded the conversation that you are about to hear.   To get access to exclusive episodes, our backlog of extended episodes, and to our MELT Meet-ups consider supporting us on Patreon at https://www.patreon.com/themeltpodcast or Locals at https://themeltpodcast.locals.com where you can subscribe for a mere $5 per month.    Find The Melt on… Rumble: https://rumble.com/c/c-2365404 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheMeltPodcast Check out our merch at: https://the-melt.creator-spring.com/   Music by The Godawful Joy: https://thegodawfuljoy.bandcamp.com/releases and Matt Presti: https://www.mattpresti.com/music.html

For this episode of the podcast I spoke with Craig Holdrege and Ryan Shea of the Nature Institute in Ghent, New York about the theory and practice of a very different way of doing science, informed and inspired by the work of the great German poet, scientist, and statesman, Johann Wolfgang von Goethe. In contrast to the reductionist paradigm of science as it is often practiced elsewhere today, the Goethean approach seeks a perspective on nature characterized by wholeness and interconnection through a sensitive and self-aware methodology in which the relationships between the phenomena and the observer are not forgotten. Craig was a visiting instructor at Thoreau College in 2020 and we are very excited to welcome Ryan to Wisconsin as guest instructor this coming spring during our Spring 2025 Metamorphosis Gap Semester.Craig Holdrege is the Nature Institute's director and spearheaded its founding in 1998. His passion is to develop what Goethe called “delicate empiricism” — an approach that learns from nature how to understand nature and is infused with a cautious and critical awareness of how intentions and habits of mind affect human understanding. Craig carries out studies of animals and plants that tell the story of these organisms as dynamic and integrated beings within the larger web of life. He has written many articles and books, including Seeing the Animal Whole—And Why It Matters, Do Frogs Come from Tadpoles? and Thinking Like a Plant. Before co-founding The Nature Institute, Craig was a high school biology teacher in Waldorf Schools, working in Germany for 12 years and then in the U.S. for nine years. Since the early 1990s, Craig has been involved in teacher training. Craig has a Ph.D. in sustainability education from Prescott College in Arizona. He completed a Masters-level, non-degree program in phenomenological science at the Science Research Laboratory at the Goetheanum, Switzerland, and has a B.A. in philosophy from Beloit College.Ryan Shea taught at Providence College for eight years, including courses in philosophy of science, environmental philosophy, and nature writing. He has B.A. and M.A. degrees in philosophy. He brings to his work at The Nature Institute a broad knowledge of ancient philosophical biology (especially Aristotle), the scientific revolution, phenomenology, German idealism, and Goethean qualitative science. Ryan has been interested in Goethean Science since he was a teenager. He began working part-time for The Nature Institute in spring 2023 and is full-time as of September 2024. He is excited to now have the opportunity to develop Goethean practice through research and teaching. He is interested in pursuing the nature of metamorphosis in different realms of the living world, and what it means to read the “book of nature.” Nature Institute: https://www.natureinstitute.org/Metamorphosis Gap Semester - Spring 2025 - https://thoreaucollege.org/metamorphosis-spring/

“Music is the mediator between the spiritual and the sensual life.” - Ludwig van Beethoven“To think is easy. To act is hard. But the hardest thing in the world is to act in accordance with your thinking.”- Johann Wolfgang von Goethe“Our highest endeavor must be to develop free human beings who are able of themselves to impart purpose and direction to their lives. The need for imagination, a sense of truth, and a feeling of responsibility—these three forces are the very nerve of education.”- Rudolf SteinerLouisa Barnum lived her early life as a professional classical musician.

Fundamentals from the Rock Paper Bitcoin podcast discusses the Meshtadel on his pod and provides great value to both PMM and Meshtadel groups. Conversations are ongoing about industrial farming versus regenerative agriculture in the Pleb Miner Mafia chat. We compare and contrast Meshtadel related content on Stacker News and publications on Ungovernable Misfits. We like to think Stacker News provides great utility, but on UngovernableMisfits.com our stories are presented with superior aesthetics. Barnminer consults on mining with another Meshtadelian and Travis Bitckle creatively repurposes a T17 server housing into a birdhouse, which puts a little birdhouse, in our souls. Parent-led Motivation MentorshipJon discusses he and Sarah's experiences with homeschooling during COVID-era madness. Our strategy for navigating the public school system involves coaching, volunteering, and knowing the teachers and administrators. Max discusses his optimal school experience and what decisions will be made for his children's education. We also explored Waldorf Schools, Montessori, Hillsdale Affiliate Schools, and homeschooling options, including various homeschool curriculums. Resources to enrich children's learning experiences include bookishadventure.com, which provides material and activities related to books. Max and Jon chat about passing along wisdom and encouraging kids to lean into their aptitudes. We discuss apprenticeships, craft guilds, and the view that school primarily teaches obedience, homeschooling on a homestead, and the unique needs of gifted children. “Export your child into the world or import the world to your child” – Soul ExporterPurposeful Mentoring and MindfulnessThe boys discuss fostering a spirit of civil disobedience in your child while helping them develop critical thinking skills.Pan-African Mesh Networks and Melting Fiber optic cableJon and Max cover another Communications Breakdown with a severed fiber off the Gold Coast of Ghana and Jon recounts his experience during the Howard Street Tunnel fire in 2001. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-africa-68569022Baltimore Tunnel FirePalantirs, Middle Earth, and MordorThey Brought the War to your Living Room by Charles-François-Bienvenu MyrielGood stories are timeless in nature and reveal universal truths. Fiction, through narratives like "Lord of the Rings," offers insights that remain relevant for all time, illustrating choices faced when confronting pure fucking evil. Charles Myriel points this out in Frodo and Gandalf's discussion in the Mines of Moria. The saying "Ignorance is Bliss" applies here, as facing harmful control involves risks and conflicts, especially against authorities and their enforcers who claim to be "just doing their job." The repercussions of challenging societal norms can include job loss due to vaccine mandates and being ostracized from the rest of society. Similarly, the common folk's defiance of government actions mirrors Frodo's quest, demonstrating how individuals can triumph over formidable global forces.

Today's episode is sponsored by BetterHelp. If you had a good Waldorf experience, we're thrilled for you. Not all the schools are the same. Just like not all churches are the same. Don't get your knickers in a knot. But if there are things about Waldorf that chap your ass, pour yourself some tea because we have just the guest for you. In this episode Chloe Weise sheds light on her decade and a half in a Waldorf School before leaving for college and grad school. Now steeped in the scientific method and working in the tech industry, Chloe raises questions about Waldorf's founder, Rudolf Steiner, and teachings openly called “Occult Science.”  Was Rudolf Steiner an early 20th Century German mystic, or an arrogant semi-Christian evangelist for things like astral bodies, clairvoyance, and overtly racist pseudoscience. We're here to find out what Chloe thinks. This is Chloe's first time speaking publicly about her misgivings with Waldorf. We're honored she trusted us with her experience. Without further adieu, here's our chat with Chloe Weise.   NOTES: Chloe Weise holds an MS in Evolutionary Biology and is a data analyst at Lumen Energy.

Join me for an interview of pioneer in private domain education, John-Logan of the Coots family, who is a private entrepreneur, philanthropist, spiritual mentor, and leader in health, fitness, empowerment, and education. Live Friday December 9, 3 PM CST About John-Logan: Fifteen years ago, John-Logan co-founded Powerfit Personal Training, LLC and has recently turned it into a Private Member Association, which he learned how to do since the “plannedemic” when the city of Rohnert Park tried to shut him down for refusing to close during the ridiculous mandates. With the knowledge acquired during the last two years of struggle from his decision to not close down and fight for his rights, he has learned how to operate Powerfit in the private domain and realized this same knowledge could protect families and their offspring from governmental overreach. He has now focused his efforts to create an educational sanctuary free from vaccinations and other public school dogma by co-founding Rock Rose Farm Education Center, a Private Membership Association. Rock Rose Farm is a charity to protect the medical freedom, rights and magic of childhood, inspired by the very best pioneers in the history of education. For a decade of his youth, John-Logan attended Waldorf School in Emeryville, California where he was profoundly influenced by the attention to beauty, goodness and truth, which ignited his imagination and creativity within a nature-based curriculum. The holistic environment fostered and nurtured unique education that supported each student to reach their highest potential. Self-expression, natural exploration, and creative arts are integrated into all academic disciplines. During these years, John-Logan's mind, spirit and soul have been stimulated and his passion for lifelong learning was deeply cultivated. At an early age John-Logan was diagnosed with being dyslexic, a challenging language-based learning disability. Despite this diagnosis, he believes that living with dyslexia has been a blessing-in-disguise as he has had the opportunity to see life from new perspectives and has been able to discover his true gift of heightened kinesthetics intelligence, and now lives to help others experience the brilliance of their own body and mind. John-Logan is motivated to help others on his life journey, discover and tap into their own unique power, potential and inner gifts. * John-Logan has always been determined to succeed in new and innovative ways through his proactive commitment to being a lifelong learner. He now believes all people should learn to become autodidactic or self-taught learners. John-Logan is hopeful that his unique way of seeing and interacting with the world in order to adapt and excel, inspires other people with similar challenges. John-Logan believes that all people are, by nature, free, uniquely brilliant and have God-given gifts and talents. He is dedicated to inspiring others to learn about, develop and access their own potential to create a healthy livelihood rooted in empowerment and lifelong learning.

In the US, we think "freedom" is about choices.  And, it partly is.  But true freedom is about so much more.  It's about being free from our engrained patterns of responses to the external world.  From our sense of identity.  Free to consistently explore, change and evolve who we are, without feeling tied to old thoughts, behaviours and beliefs.  That can be easier said than done, but the groundwork to help us do so can be laid early on, during our education.I sit down with Wade Cavin, a dedicated and brilliant Waldorf Educator, to ask him what our education system is missing at its root, why that's important, how we might approach our education differently, for our children and for ourselves as adults, and why it might be beneficial to do so.He also speaks to why it's so important for humans of all ages to cultivate awareness of their intuition, imagination, their interests, and desires, because those are the signs that direct them on how to live their life.  This was an incredibly enlightening conversation for me... even more so on the second listen as I was editing it.  I hope you enjoy it.  www.thisnakedvoice.com@thisnakedvoiceSupport the show
