I've learned more when I'm shit scared: it's where the magic happens. It's better to try and fail, than to play it safe. Comfort is a bloody slow death. So if you need a guidebook on how to get out of your own way, this episode is for you. This week I'm joined by Ilana Gambrill, founder of DanceBox aimed at empowering women through and movement, and Laura Belbin, the comedian known as Knee Deep in Life online.
A proponent of the Madhyamaka tradition of Mahāyāna Buddhism, Candrakīrti wrote several works, one of which, the Madhamakāvatāra, strongly influenced later Tibetan understandings of Madhyamaka. This work is the subject of Jan Westerhoff's Candrakīrti's Introduction to the Middle Way: A Guide (Oxford University Press, 2024), part of the Oxford Guides to Philosophy series. His book situates Candarkīrti and his text within Indian and Tibetan Buddhism and helps philosophical readers appreciate the text's main arguments and ideas. Chief among these is a commitment to the emptiness of all phenomena, especially but not only selves, which is the subject of the lengthy sixth chapter—analyzing what it means for things to lack any substantial existence and criticizing opposing positions. Candrakīrti also takes up topics in metaphilosophy (do critical arguments commit us to positive claims?), philosophy of mind (do enlightened beings have experience at all?), and semantics and logic (what is the difference between conventional and ultimate truth, and can we express the latter in language?). Westerhoff's guide aims to help readers unfamiliar with Sanskrit or Tibetan navigate these ideas, pointing them to further scholarly and philosophical resources along the way.

In this episode, Rabbi Yair Menchel shares tips on how parents can make Chanukah a meaningful and fun experience for their children. He emphasizes the importance of creating a festive environment, involving children in the decorations, and building a family menorah. Rabbi Menchel also highlights the significance of making the lighting of the menorah a sacred moment and continuing the excitement with songs and dancing. He suggests engaging children in meaningful discussions, using Hanukkah as a time to learn, and giving experiences instead of material gifts. Additionally, he discusses the impact of family time experiences, meaningful gift giving, and adding an educational component to parties. Takeaways Involve children in the Chanukah preparations and decorations to make them feel valued and boost their confidence. Make the lighting of the menorah a sacred moment by eliminating distractions and giving each child a turn to light the candles. Engage children in meaningful discussions about Chanukah, such as the meaning of miracles and the importance of faith. Give experiences and quality time with children instead of material gifts to strengthen the parent-child relationship and create lasting memories.

Summer is a great time to rest, recharge, and work on professional development. This is often when we as music educators attend conferences and workshops, participate in training and certification programs, take summer classes at a local university, and catch up on all the reading we intended to do during the year.Reading is one of my favorite ways to continue learning as a music professional. I love books that help me better understand the learning process—the neuroscience and psychology behind how we take in and process new information. If you've been listening for a while, you know I've shared several book and reading-related episodes in the past: I talked about Daniel Pink's book, Drive: The Surprising Truth About What Motivates Us back in Ep. 003, I shared insights from Keith Sawyer's book, Zig Zag: The Surprising Path to Greater Creativity in Ep. 009, and I unpacked Carol Dweck's book, Mindset: The New Psychology of Success in Ep. 049.I also shared a summer reading list for music teachers in Ep. 031 with a few novels and non-music or teaching books, if you're looking for other suggestions.Today, I'm sharing a curated list of 11 pedagogy-related books for music teachers. Some explore the research on how the brain works, others outline the tenets of effective practicing; some touch on meditation and wellness practices in music teaching and performance, others teach foundational pedagogy principles. Some I've read, and some are on my reading list, but all offer a fresh perspective on the teaching and learning process that I hope will inspire and inform your teaching practice in the year to come.For show notes, click here.Resources Mentioned*Disclosure: I get commissions for purchases made through links in this post.Ep. 003 - The Surprising Truth About What Motivates UsEp. 009 - Book review: Zig Zag: The Surprising Path to Greater CreativityEp. 049 - What Every Music Teacher Should Know About Mindsets: Insights from Carol Dweck's BookEp. 031 - A Summer Reading List for Music TeachersThe Musician's Toolbox: Thoughts on Teaching and Learning Music (Diane and Nick Petrella)How We Learn: The Surprising Truth About When, Where, and Why It Happens (Benedict Carey)Ep. 038 - The Secrets of Interleaved PracticeThe Art of Practicing: A Guide to Making Music from the Heart (Madeline Bruser)The Inner Game of Music (Barry Green & W.

Meido Moore Roshi is the abbot of Korinji monastery in Wisconsin. He studied under three Rinzai Zen masters: Tenzan Toyoda Rokoji (under whom he also endured training in traditional martial arts), Dogen Hosokawa Roshi, and So’zan Miller Roshi. All are in the lineage of Omori Sogen Roshi, perhaps the most famous Rinzai Zen master of the 20th century, who was further renowned as a master of calligraphy and swordsmanship. In 2008 Meido Roshi received inka shomei ("mind seal"), designating him an 86th-generation Zen dharma heir and a 48th-generation holder of the lineage descended from Rinzai Gigen. Like many of the teachers in this lineage his instruction stresses the embodied nature of Zen realization, often making use of physical culture and fine arts as complementary disciplines. In particular, he has stressed instruction of the internal energetic practices transmitted in Rinzai Zen. Meido Roshi's book The Rinzai Zen Way: A Guide to Practice (Shambala, 2018) is out from Shambhala Publications in March 2018.

Bridget was late to her very first meetup and ended up having to sit up front, and when it was over, she just left - “don’t do that!” ;)Jason had a similar experience, but he likes sitting in the front row! His first meetup had nothing to do with WordPress. He threw a bunch of search terms at Meetup.com and the Adobe Software meetup kept coming up so he went! Met a guy the first time there who encouraged him to speak at the very next meetup!Attending your first meetup:Be on time (or early!)Have a 10-sec intro or “elevator pitch” available to introduce yourself - don’t try to sound clever, just say your name and some quick things about who you are - “If your grandma doesn’t know what you do by reading your twitter bio…”Sit where you can hear/see easilyMeetup.com is a good resource for finding things you likeIf you’re a ‘doer’ and want to get involved in your meetup, sit back for a bit and see what people are NOT doing - then offer to do that!Take notes and share them! It’s a great way to help.Use a photo of yourself (that actually looks like you) on meetup.com (or on social)If you raise your hand with a question, make it a “question”, not a statement. Ask something that actually will have a good answer and further the conversation.Organizing your meetup:Sometimes you hear people say “there’s not enough people speaking at meetups”, but Bridget asks the question “Are you asking people to speak?”Recognize that you have different kinds of people in your meetup that might want to help, some are introverts and some are extroverts - they may want to help but won’t speak upIt’s important to have co-leaders because each leader will have different gifts & strengthsSpeakers -- NO hard pitching!Know and follow the ‘code of conduct’. Make sure to create a ‘safe space’ in your meetupStart promoting at least two weeks in advanceCreate a facebook group or slack account so that people can connect in between meetups or re-connect if they’re not able to attend oneBridget got involved with WordCamps when Alex Vasquez reached out to her (since she was a social media expert) and *asked* her to do social media for an upcoming Camp - and she’s been volunteering every since! She was ‘doing her thing’ and others recognized her gifts.As meetup organizers, Bridget and Jen try to pay attention to what people’s gifts / strengths are.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maslow%27s_hierarchy_of_needs - ‘A Theory of Human Motivation’If you catch someone spending a lot of time focusing on something or asking questions about something not directly related to the night’s topic, why not suggest “Maybe you can talk about that at one of our upcoming meetups!” What’s the worst that could happen? You might get a great speaker!It’s not that people aren’t experienced or don’t have the needed gifts, but many people just need to be asked. They either don’t want to brag about their abilities or they may even struggle with ‘imposter syndrome’.Ask “what are you working on? let’s see it!” It’s a great way to get everyone involved and possibly brainstorm new topics. You and your fellow organizers can speak every month but if you ask and seek input / topics / speakers / from your members, everyone can feel included.If you can get people to talk, even if it’s just answering questions, eventually they’ll become more comfortable with speaking and may even be encouraged to speak at a future meetupThe way you present or comment on a tool/plugin should not reflect on how you view the user. Don’t make it sound like you’re the only one who is smart because you use “X” plugin instead of “Y” plugin. Share pro/cons and thoughts without being judgy! Try to be host/plugin agnostic as a leader of a meetup. Our job as facilitators is to create a psychologically safe place.Be careful with gender-specific meetups - be gender-inclusive, not exclusive. You can focus your content and style at women, but you shouldn’t exclude men from attending. We can all learn from each other - men and women do things differently but all have something to offer.We have a lot of seasoned WordPress professionals who no longer want to attend meetups because it’s too basic for them. We also have very new beginners who feel it’s too advanced. It’s nice, when possible, to be able to mix your content or have different meetups aimed at different levels.RELATED: EP283 – Who are we presenting to at a WordCamp or WordPress Meetup? https://www.wpwatercooler.com/video/ep283-wpwatercooler/If we approach any group of people and think “there’s nothing I can learn from any of these people” then we’re looking at it all wrong. There’s always something to be gained from networking and mentoring with other people. We want to get bigger jobs, so we should partner up with each other!We’re more than just what we do for a living - we have unique interests/skills outside of WordPress - like yoga!When Matt Cromwell went to WP Las Vegas a few years ago, he went to a beginner’s workshop (even though he’s an advanced user) and got to hear so much for new users that he was then able to take back with him and say “I’m going to do this differently from now on”.We go through phases where we are advanced at some things and beginners at other things. It’s important to be a lifelong learner, there’s always something new you can learn and people you can learn from.Try not to always talk about only the commercial plugin options and the pricier hosting options, you have to remember sometimes your audience is Joe, the cat-blogger! Not everyone works for a WordPress agency!Promoting and blogging about your meetup is really important. Even over the holidays - that is often when people are the loneliest and need connection with others the most. Try to promote at least 2 weeks out and use more than just meetup.com to advertise.Taking photos during your events can be super helpful - especially if you use those photos to promote the group on social media in between eventsIf you’re going to have your meetup on a week night, it can be tricky for people to get dinner before your meeting, so maybe provide cheap eats (pizza, etc) or try to meet up beforehand for a quick bite together.In your meetup event page, comment & reply to people when they say they can’t attend or when they give feedback on the meeting - be interactive!If you have a facebook page, try to schedule facebook events as reminders, and if it’s possible, even have someone record it and share it via facebook live during the meetup. (Can even be done with a cellphone)Andrea Middleton: WordCamps are a celebration of the meetups that happen the whole year before!Try not to have all of the meetup/WordCamp organizers sit together at events, it can be intimidating and exclusionary - it also makes it harder to focus on meeting new members and getting to know each other better.Try to do your staff/organizer meetups not at the meetup event. Schedule a separate time for it.Have consistency - it’s a HUGE factor - people who don’t attend regularly but know your schedule are able to hop in down the road when they may have more time to attendBeing a community means investing your time in other people. ~ BridgetTOOLS AND TIPSBridget: Use Gmail to help clean-up your constant contact email list by searching gmail addresses to find out if they have a profile with their first and last name listedJason: There isn’t really any good formatting for doing “stories” on social media - found a great app for phones that allows you to make and customize your story - Unfoldhttps://itunes.apple.com/us/app/unfold-create-stories/id1247275033?mt=8https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.moonlab.unfold&hl=en_USShow notes contributed by:Cheryl LaPrade @YayCherylSherie LaPrade @HeySherie See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
Rogue polo balls, sweltering heat and discriminatory work messages feature in our eighth episode. Simone Willis is our special guest - she is a PhD researcher in musicians’ stress and wellbeing at Cardiff Metropolitan University and gives some useful tips and advice on how to manage performance anxiety and maintain musicians’ wellbeing. Finally, a rather comical weird gig set in Hyde Park precedes our personal recommendations for festivals to attend during the summer.

This week’s Please Explain is all about trails - from the ancient nomadic paths that travelers relied on for survival, to modern hiking trails that help us find our way in the wilderness. Robert Moor began writing his book, On Trails: An Exploration, while thru-hiking the Appalachian Trail in 2009. He’ll talk about animal trails (ants, buffaloes, elephants), long-lost Cherokee trails, and discuss the colonial origins of American hiking trails.
Episode 53 comes to you from chilly and beautiful Oslo, Norway. Today we’re talking about the power of questioning the norm. Prepare to be challenged. In this episode we’re talking about changing our attitudes towards commonly accepted “truths” and dispelling the notion about what we “need” to be happy. Robert Wall used to be a packrat before he discovered minimalism. He publishes the Untitled Minimalism website and podcast, which gives practical, solid advice to enable starving college students, middle class paper pushers, retired millionaires, and everybody in-between to accomplish extraordinary changes in their lives. You can find out more at UntitledMinimalism.com. His latest book is Escaping “GiftMas”: Getting Right-Side-Up About Gifts In An Upside-Down Holiday Culture.
