The Oxytocin Trap: Disney's Biochemical Hijacking Disney's fairy tales operate as neurochemical warfare. fMRI studies reveal that young girls exposed to Princess media before age seven exhibit 300% higher oxytocin release during romantic scenes—a hormonal hijacking that addicts them to relationship limerence before puberty.

There is an ancient rhythm to suffering. It beats quietly beneath the surface of our world, unseen by many, but felt deeply by those who have lived through it. On today's episode, we welcome Gloria Masters, a woman who has walked through the valley of darkness and emerged with a torch in hand, lighting the way for others still trapped in the abyss. Her story is not merely one of survival, but of profound spiritual awakening, an alchemy that turns the heaviest pain into the lightest truth.From the earliest moments of her life, Gloria Masters was ensnared in a world most of us cannot fathom—a world where innocence was a currency and love a vanishing illusion. She was born into a family that saw her not as a child, but as a commodity, trafficked from the age of six. Her own father, a figure meant to symbolize protection, instead orchestrated her suffering. Yet, even within the depths of cruelty, there was something inside her that would not be extinguished, something that whispered, You are more than this.For years, she endured unspeakable atrocities, but when she finally turned sixteen, she seized her own freedom, stepping into a world she had never truly known. With no safe adults to rely on, she had only herself, and yet that was enough. She recalls looking to the sky, to the moon, and to the clouds, finding solace in their silent presence. “When bad things happen,” she reflects, “the gift is in what we do with that, in what we learn from it.” In that simple yet profound truth, she reclaims her life, not as a victim, but as a voice for those still silenced.Many ask, How does one survive such a past without anger consuming them? The answer, as Gloria shares, is not avoidance, but acceptance. The mind, in its infinite wisdom, sometimes locks away trauma until we are ready. When her own memories came flooding back in her thirties, it was like a dam breaking, unrelenting and merciless. Yet, instead of drowning, she chose to swim. “The worst thing you can do is block it,” she says. “Accept it, breathe through it, and ask it what it has to teach you.”Today, she dedicates her life to protecting others, especially the most vulnerable—children. She spreads awareness about the reality of trafficking, urging people to recognize that most victims are not abducted by strangers in dark alleys, but rather betrayed by those closest to them. She teaches children a simple hand signal that can save their lives and reminds adults that ignoring evil is its own form of complicity. “Children can't save themselves,” she warns. “They need us.” The path of healing is long, winding, and often lonely. But Gloria proves that it is possible. That even after years of being treated as nothing, a person can step forward and say, I am here. I matter. That even after a childhood spent in chains, one can grow wings. Her work, her presence, is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit, a reminder that light can always find its way into even the darkest corners.SPIRITUAL TAKEAWAYSThe past does not define you, but what you do with it does. No matter what has been taken from you, there is always a way to reclaim your power and rewrite your story.Healing is not about forgetting, but about transforming. The pain you have endured holds wisdom. It can either weigh you down or become the fuel for your highest purpose.Compassion is a responsibility, not an option. Turning away from suffering does not make it disappear. We must be willing to stand up, speak out, and protect those who cannot protect themselves.The world is vast and unpredictable, filled with both profound beauty and unfathomable darkness. But as long as there are people like Gloria Masters, willing to stand in that darkness and shine a light, there is hope. And hope, after all, is what keeps the soul moving forward.Please enjoy my conversation with Gloria Masters.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/next-level-soul-podcast-with-alex-ferrari--4858435/support.

Today, I am talking with Dr Carol Hughes, a leading expert in canine microbiome research, whose episode where we spoke specifically about the microbiome is by far one of your favourites! But today we are going to be discussing one of Carol's other passions, and that is plant antimicrobials.  Carol has been researching plant antimicrobials for over 20 years, and this is a fantastic complement to our discussion of the canine microbiome, because plant antimicrobials offer a potential alternative to conventional antibiotics that wreak havoc on the microbiome, and instead, target specific pathogenic bacteria without disrupting the entire gut system. In this episode, Carol begins by sharing with us her fascinating story of how she first got into this line of research via horses, and you'll be amazed to hear that Queen Elizabeth I is part of this story! We also preface this chat with understanding the context we are in where we have lost our knowledge about plants, and how we must reclaim it in an era of antibiotic resistance. Carol then dives into:  * How plants come to have antimicrobial properties * How plants can help us target pathogenic bacteria - and how plant antimicrobials may be the microbiome's only hope! * How you can use plant antimicrobials, and which ones you can choose right from your kitchen for your dog's health * You'll also have a brand new understanding of nature therapy when you hear how trees help heal our illnesses! And so much more! Carol is an absolute fount of knowledge, so I know you are going to find some real gems in this chat. If you'd like to reach out to Carol, or you'd like to learn more about how to order a microbiome test and report for your dog, visit her website https://www.biome4pets.com If a holistic approach to caring for your dog resonates with you, and you are interested in learning more about how you can put the pieces together, Stacey Renphrey of Hozho Hounds and I are launching our F.E.T.C.H. membership which is designed to teach you the same holistic framework that we use in our canine nutrition and wellbeing practices, so that you, too, can confidently take control of your dog's health journey.

My guest for this episode is Dr Janine Kreft, a clinical psychologist turned mental wellness and energetics mentor who joins me to chat all things healing - mind, body, and soul. Janine has a super interesting journey from being a ballet dancer for 17 years, to dealing with various personal health crises, and ultimately finding her way into holistic and energy psychology healing approaches. I came across Janine's personal story about a powerful lesson she learned about health and consciousness through her dog, Buckee's health journey, and I wanted her to share this story with you. It's an incredible story of how Buckee's physical growth was reflecting Janine's own transformational growth that she hadn't acknowledged. We also touch on so much more, including: * managing the grief of identity change * getting to the root cause of issues * how issues start at the energy level first, and then manifest into form - often as a health challenge * healing from the cellular level * the relationship between stress and illness * symptoms as information * tuning into energy to identify what is true for you and your dog * bringing ourselves into a state of regulation Janine gives some really helpful pointers on how to distinguish between your own energy, and when you might be taking on energy from others or the collective, and what to do about it. If you love the connection between the mind, body, and spirit, you're going to love this episode! I would love to hear what your takeaways were.

Special thanks to friend and listener Jennifer for submitting our Anne Frank episode as her Fan Favorite, and providing audio for the new introduction. In addition to the insights and personal connections that are shared by Jennifer, Candy and Ashley also discuss two new developments related to the legacy of Anne Frank, the young writer whose tragic story has touched millions of people around the world.  (Originally aired 4/2/2024) “I still believe, in spite of everything, that people are truly good at heart.” These were the words written by 15-year-old Anne Frank just months before Nazis raided the Secret Annex and sent the inhabitants to concentration camps, where all but her father ultimately perished.  One of the most well-known teens in history, this extraordinary young woman's work, Anne Frank: The Diary of a Young Girl, ranks among the top-10 best-selling nonfiction books of all time and has been translated into more than 70 languages.  How did Anne's family end up in the Secret Annex along with the other inhabitants, and what challenges did they face while in hiding? What new discoveries about Anne's story have come to light in more recent years? How do the  A, B, and C versions of Anne's diary differ? And do we finally have an answer to the mystery of who betrayed the Secret Annex families? Join us for this moving episode where we discuss all this and so much more!

Does your dog have chronic yeast outbreaks, ear infections, or tummy problems that go away after a round of antibiotics, only to come right back after you stop using them? Have you spent hundreds, if not thousands of dollars at the vets, on supplements, and trying every diet imaginable, but you still can't get on top of your dog's symptoms?  Then you NEED to listen to this conversation I had with veterinarian Dr Neal Loh. Dr Neal is a holistic and integrative vet based in Perth, Western Australia, who uses Traditional Chinese Veterinary Medicine approaches to support his clients and get to the root cause of health imbalances. Honestly, Dr Neal gives us a TCM 101 course in this episode, it is so chock full of helpful information! * He shares his journey into both conventional veterinary medicine, and why he switched to a Traditional Chinese Medicine approach.  * He also talks about how stress - ours and our dogs' - is at the heart of so many health challenges our dogs face * And we do a deep dive into one of the most common and pervasive pathogens in TCVM: dampness. * You'll learn what dampness is, where it comes from, and how it contributes to some of the most common conditions, including yeast, chronic ear infections, as well as chronic and sporadic gut problems. And you'll also learn how food therapy approaches can be really helpful in supporting your dog if they suffer from dampness.

You are in for a treat, because in this episode, I am speaking with one of my favourite people to chat all things dog with - canine herbalist, Rita Hogan! This is the second episode that Rita and I have recorded together, and if you haven't listened to our first one, I highly recommend you take a listen to it (link below). In that first episode, Rita spoke at length about the warm-cool spectrum, which is perhaps the primary concept that is helpful to understanding your dog's energetics and how to support their health by balancing it. Today, Rita talks about dryness and dampness, and why moisture is perhaps the most important thing we need to consider when we are looking at health, and what we can do from a food and herbal therapy perspective to ensure our dogs maintain a moisture balance. Rita shares with us how moisture - which is not just water - impacts everything, including nutrient absorption, toxin elimination, hormones, and even behaviour and emotions like anxiety. Here are just a few things we cover: * Symptoms of dryness and symptoms of dampness, and how to identify where your dog falls on the spectrum * Helpful tips on handling moisture in your dog's food - whether you are feeding fresh, kibble, or freeze-dried * How the nervous system plays a role in every chronic health condition - including how YOUR nervous system impacts your dog * Why an imbalance in fats can create problems with the nervous system, and why the sourcing of your dog's food is so important for this * How to keep fluids circulating in your dog's body* How herbs can add or remove moisture to the body, and some of the common ones you can find * How herbs can be used to support our dogs who struggle with fear, anxiety, reactivity, and aggression, and how our dogs' issues often mirror our own AND Rita introduces her brand new book The Herbal Book, which comes out in the US on the 4th of February (but you can pre-order it)! You are going to take so much away from this episode, and I can't wait to hear what your personal takeaways are!

Happy New Year! Thank you for joining us for our second FETCH First Friday episode, where Stacey Renphrey of Hozho Hounds and I are talking about a health condition that we feed doesn't get enough attention, and that is CCD, or Canine Cognitive Dysfunction. Also referred to as Doggy Dementia, CCD is a health challenge that affects a large proportion of senior dogs - up to 60% of dogs over 11 years of age are said to develop it - and it's a condition that really requires a multi-pronged approach to nutrition and wellness. So, Stacey and I wanted to talk about it and look at how our F.E.T.C.H. framework might provide some useful ways for you to approach it. If you are new here, F.E.T.C.H. stands for Fresh food, Energetics, Targeted approaches, Curiosity, and Holistic health. and it is the same framework that Stacey and I both use in our own canine nutrition and wellbeing practices to help get to the root of a health challenge, and to help clients identify other veterinary and complementary supports that might be needed. In addition to our membership community where we teach you how to apply this framework to your own dog, we are hosting this special F.E.T.C.H. First Friday series on the Mystic Dog Mama podcast where we will take a health condition of your choice, and show you how you can apply the F.E.T.C.H. framework to it. It's our hope that in sharing this with you, we can help you confidently make informed decisions for your dog. Today we look at: *What CCD is, and what symptoms you might notice *How CCD is diagnosed, and conventional approaches to managing it with diet and supplements *Fresh food approaches to managing, and potentially preventing, CCD *How MCT and other healthy fats may benefit dogs with CCD *How a 2000 yr old TCM document highlights how supporting the kidney, heart, and gut may be helpful to managing the progression of CCD *How to building a support team around you And loads more! Our hope is that you come away from this episode with some practical things to look at to best support your dog with CCD, or to give your dog the best shot possible to prevent it. This episode is sponsored by Aspirationery ,which in full transparency, is another project of mine where we create books, notebooks, and stationery to support you in becoming all you aspire to be.

If you love dogs, you need to hear this conversation with Dr Lise Hansen, who joins me on the podcast today to talk about the very important subject of spaying and neutering dogs. We are in the midst of a paradigm shift in how we care for dogs, and this subject sits at the centre of it. The World Small Animal Veterinary Association (WSAVA ) recently issued revised, groundbreaking veterinary guidelines that unequivocally recommend NOT neutering dogs as a routine procedure. Although this flies in the face of the standard recommendations that many of us have operated by, leaving dogs intact is quite common in many countries, including several Scandinavian countries. In this episode, Dr Hansen discusses the research that directly links neutering with some of the most common health conditions our dogs face, including: cancer, arthritis, ligament disease, diabetes, hypothyroidism, and many more. She also addresses the common concerns around the risks of testicular cancer and pyometra, and talks about potential hormone-saving alternatives that we can take to address the concerns around population control. We also talk about how we can better support our dogs' health if they have been neutered. Like Dr Hansen says in this conversation, spaying and neutering is THE topic we need to be talking about because of our new understanding of the long-term ramifications it has for our dogs health, and the new guidelines recognise this. Dr Hansen is so knowledgeable, and she presents this topic in such a useful and accessible way - I know you will gain so much from this conversation. If this holistic approach to caring for your dog resonates with you, and you are interested in becoming a part of a new community dedicated to helping you become your dog's health advocate, Stacey Renphrey of Hozho Hounds and I are launching our F.E.T.C.H. membership which is designed to teach you the same holistic framework that we use in our canine nutrition and wellbeing practices, so that you, too, can confidently take control of your dog's health journey.

Today, I am joined by the wonderful, Jill Breitner! Jill is a dog trainer, an author, and the creator of the incredibly helpful and popular Dog Decoder App. The Dog Decoder App helps pet parents and pet professionals better understand canine body language, and thereby, better understand what dogs are trying to communicate to us. And ultimately, this helps us to create better bonds with our furry companions with relationships based on trust and understanding.  Although Jill has been professionally training dogs for over 40 years, her work in this field really began in her childhood when she became keenly aware of the profound relationship that exists between humans and animals. During Jill's time working as a veterinary technician,  her natural empathy and sensitivity allowed her to support dogs who were so fearful and aggressive that they wouldn't let anyone else handle them. When you listen to Jill speak, you'll understand exactly why she was the perfect person to help support these dogs, and why they trusted her. She truly has a gift. In this episode, we cover a range of topics, including: * Jill's journey into working with dogs, which started with learning about Jane Goodall's work with chimpanzees, and then through her personal relationship with her childhood dog, Shotsy * Shifting the paradigm in dog training * Jill's own health journey with a cancer diagnosis, and navigating her own path through it with a food as medicine approach - for her, and then for her dogs * Connecting the dots to find your own voice, your own agency, and becoming an advocate for your dog - and yourself * Behaviour is a function of an emotion, and how you can start understanding what their behaviours are showing you * Jill shares some ways to better understand your dog's behaviour and how to truly listen to your dog To connect with Jill and learn more about her app, please visit her website: https://dogdecoder.com, or her Instagram https://instagram.com/dogdecoder This is a beautiful conversation, and I know you're going to love Jill as much as I do.

Arizona man Samuel Bateman pled guilty to kidnapping and coercing underage girls to engage in criminal sex acts, and transporting them across state lines. He'll spend 50 years in prison, but in this Sharper Point Commentary, Jim Sharpe says its not a severe enough punishment.   

Today, I am joined by Canine First Aid Guru, Rachel Bean! Rachel is a registered veterinary nurse who delivers workshops and the iPET Network's Ofqual Level 3 course in canine first aid.  First aid training is one of those things that we don't necessarily think about or prioritise when we are looking at how to best nourish our dogs, but it's incredibly important, and it's incredibly empowering when you know you can help your dog if something happens. Rachel shares with us some REALLY helpful tips on how to handle common issues she sees in veterinary practice like bleeding, choking, how to perform CPR, how to treat paw pad burns, and really importantly, she dispels some common myths when it comes to treating your dog of suspected heatstroke.

For decades Anne Frank's Diary of a Young Girl has inspired and challenged readers to look for the good in an often-brutal world. In today's episode, critically acclaimed author, Alice Hoffman, joins host Suzanne McCabe to talk about her newest young adult novel When We Flew Away: A Novel of Anne Frank Before the Diary, which reimagines the life of Anne Frank before she wrote her famous diary. This gripping and lyrical novel, informed by extensive research and extraordinary support from the Anne Frank Center, captures the highs, lows, and unyielding hope of Anne and her family during the harrowing Nazi occupation in the Netherlands. Amid danger, deprivation, and countless indignities, a young Anne Frank discovers who she is and cultivates the writer within her. In addition to When We Flew Away, Alice Hoffman has written over thirty works of fiction, including The Dovekeepers, The World That We Knew, and Practical Magic to name a few. → Resources About Alice Hoffman: Learn more about the author and her many novels. When We Flew Away: A Novel of Anne Frank Before the Diary: Check out Alice Hoffman's latest novel about Anne Frank before her writing her famous diary. Hope From the Holocaust: Suzanne McCabe speaks with authors Neal Shusterman and Sharon Cameron about their latest novels Courage to Dream: Tales of Hope in the Holocaust, and Artifice. The Tower of Life: Suzanne McCabe talks with author Chana Stiefel about The Tower of Life: How Yaffa Eliach Rebuilt Her Town in Stories and Photographs. → Highlights Alice Hoffman, author, When We Flew Away: A Novel of Anne Frank Before the Diary “A lot of other people and teenagers wrote diaries, but [Anne Frank's], I think, kind of transcends just being her personal story. It feels much more universal. And I think also that she was a fantastic writer. So she was a great writer. And so I think her voice reminds us, because it's so innocent and so helpful that, I think it has to come in many ways for us, the Holocaust, because it's a story that she will not let us forget.” “For one, I would hope that [readers of When We Flew Away] they would want to go read the diary. And for the other part, I hope that they would want to read about somebody who really had hope in the world, despite the cruelty, despite the war, who really felt that people were good at heart and that it was still possible to change the world.” “I thought there might be lots of young readers who wouldn't know anything about [Anne Frank], wouldn't even know who she was. So, I think as you're reading [When We Flew Away], you're seeing that the world is closing in and you're having a sense that, there's not going to be a positive ending for the Jews in the Netherlands, but you really kind of want to find out what happens to [Anne]. How does she get through it? How does somebody manage to stumble, live that life is worth living.” → Special Thanks Producer: Maxine Osa Sound Engineer: S.

Got a yeasty beasty? Then this episode is for you! Today is a special day, because this is our very first FETCH First Friday episode where I collaborate with fellow canine nutrition and holistic wellness consultant, Stacey Renphrey of Hozho Hounds to teach you how to use our FETCH framework as a way to start approaching some of the most common health conditions. If you didn't catch our episode where we introduced FETCH, FETCH is an acronym that stands for Fresh Food, Energetics, Targeted, Curiosity, and Holistic Health. Stacey and I developed this framework as a tool to help you, as the pet parent, gain more confidence in being your dog's health advocate. It works by giving you some practical things to look at if your dog is experiencing a health challenge. It also helps you to keep track of your individual dog's health journey, so that you can better collaborate with your vet and other health professionals. It's the same framework that Stacey and I use in our canine nutrition and wellness practices to start understanding what might be at the root of a dog's health challenge, how nutrition might better support the health journey, and how other complementary therapeutic approaches might also be beneficial. We are kickstarting FETCH First Friday with an all-too-common condition that Stacey and I see in our client dogs: yeast. We'll talk about what yeast actually is, the different ways it can show up, what causes it, and different ways to consider supporting your dog if they are in a yeast flare-up. We'll also answer some of your questions about whether or not use probiotics, we'll talk about what a yeast die-off is and how to support the detox process, and we'll also address the hotly-debated topic of whether or not carbs feed yeast. We share our opinions on how to think about raw vs gently cooked diet options, and how food energetics may play a role in your decision of what to feed your yeasty dog. Stacey and I talk about energetics and how we've seen a pattern of cool dogs with yeast. If you have a warm dog with yeast, we'd love to know! Send us a DM or get in touch at mysticdogmama.com. And let us know what other topics you'd like us to cover on FETCH First Fridays! We're all ears :)  Our January episode is all about Canine Cognitive Disorder (CCD), so if you have a senior pup, you're going to want to check that out. If you'd like to learn more about becoming a founding member of our FETCH membership where we'll learn in community how to become our dogs' (and our own!) empowered health advocates, then send me a message on Instagram @mysticdogmama, or get in touch on my website https://mysticdogmama.com Before we dive in, just a quick note that this episode is sponsored by Aspirationery ,which in full transparency, is another project of mine where we create books, notebooks, and stationery to support you in becoming all you aspire to be.

Are you feeling overwhelmed and confused by all the conflicting information on how to feed your dog and support them to have a long, happy healthy life? Are you struggling to get on top of health challenges like yeast? Yes? Well, then, this episode is for you! Today, I am joined by my dear friend and fellow canine nutrition and wellness consultant, Stacey Renphrey, of Hozho Hounds! Stacey and I both got into canine nutrition because of the health challenges that our dogs presented, and because of the difficulties we had trying to navigate those journeys alone. You'll get to meet Stacey and learn about her dog, Shadow, who presented with a rare auto-immune disease, and caused Stacey to ask a lot of questions about how we can better support our dogs' health. We'll share with you the very same 5-part F.E.T.C.H. framework that we developed to help our own dogs, and that we use with our clients so that they can make the best choices and changes to support their dogs' optimal health, and to identify other potential factors contributing to health challenges that may have been overlooked. This framework is at the core of what we have found to be key to promoting health, and it is such an invaluable tool for helping you as the pet parent feel more confident in being your dog's health advocate. So, we wanted to share it with you! As we introduce our F.E.T.C.H. framework, You'll take away some helpful suggestions for how you can better support your own dog's individual path to optimal health today!

Today we are doing a deep dive into all things kidney disease: what it is, how it is diagnosed, and how to prevent and manage it with fresh food! My guest is my canine nutrition mentor, colleague, and friend, Katie McCaul! Katie is an esteemed canine nutrition professional who uses her background as a veterinary nurse, as well as her studies in human naturopathy specialising in nutrition, and animal behaviour and physiology to bring both a holistic and evidence-based approach to how we support our dogs' health and wellbeing through fresh food. Katie has held roles in research and development, as well as formulation for several companies in the pet food industry. She also consults directly with clients who need nutrition support. Katie has conducted research projects, and has been part of the raw feeding veterinary society. Katie is also super passionate about education and teaches vets, vet nurses, and other canine professionals about fresh feeding.  I couldn't think of anyone I would rather chat with about kidney disease than Katie! Katie and I pack so much helpful information in here to give you a better understanding of what kidney disease is, how to interpret what the lab results are telling you, and how you can best support your dog through a fresh food diet. You'll learn: * The various roles the kidneys play, and how kidney disease affects them * What factors can cause kidney disease * Kidney disease symptoms and how it is diagnosed and Staged (and why blood test results might not always be a true indicator of kidney disease) * How reducing stress and anxiety in your dog can help support the kidneys * And we answer the question,”Can we replicate what prescription kidney diets are doing with fresh food instead?” (Spoiler Alert! Not only can you match what prescription kidney diets offer, but you can do even BETTER with a fresh food diet for kidney disease, and we'll walk you through how and why!) We share some great tips on foods to add into your dog's diet, and answer common questions around whether or not you need to restrict certain nutrients and when. It's my hope that this episode provides you with some new, helpful perspectives on how to prevent and manage kidney disease, and that in doing this it takes away some of the fear that I know firsthand comes with a kidney disease diagnosis. There really is SO MUCH we can do to help dogs with kidney disease live long and healthy lives, so grab a pen and paper! You'll want to take notes! You can learn more about Katie and how to work with her to support your dog by visiting her website http://mypetdiet.co.uk/  If you do have a dog with kidney disease and you would like some more information on anything Katie and I went over, including my resource on my favourite kidney disease supports from a TCVM perspective, please reach out.  Or, if you need some more personalised guidance and handholding to put together a nutrition and wellbeing plan using fresh food for your dog with kidney disease, and you'd like my help, send me a DM on Instagram @mysticdogmama, or contact me on my website https://mysticdogmama.com and let me know what's going on with your dog, and I'll be happy to talk about ways I can support you.

This episode is part of my Folklore Friday series where I am sharing a Folklore story every Friday in 2024. To hear other stories, I have shared so far, check them out on my website All Things Iceland.  A Young Girl and Her Prankster Neighbor In a small Icelandic village, there was a young boy who loved to play tricks and frighten a girl who lived nearby. He'd pop up unexpectedly, trying to make her jump. But over time, she became so used to his tricks that nothing he did could scare her anymore. Anything strange she encountered, she dismissed as one of his pranks.One day, the girl was sent to the churchyard by her mother to fetch linen hung there to dry. As she worked, she noticed a figure sitting on a tombstone, dressed in all white. Instantly, she thought it was the boy up to his usual tricks, so she marched up, grabbed the figure's white cap, and declared she wouldn't be scared this time. With a smug grin, she returned home with the cap in her basket. The Realization of a Grave Mistake But when she arrived home, the boy was already at the house, greeting her with a puzzled look. Confused and unnerved, she sorted through the linen and found the cap she had taken from the figure. It was damp with mold and smelled of earth. Realizing the figure hadn't been the boy, the family understood the girl had encountered a ghost. Fear swept through the village.The next day, the ghost reappeared on the same tombstone, this time without its white cap. No one dared approach it, fearing the consequences. Desperate, the villagers called for an old man from a neighboring village known for his wisdom. He advised that the cap had to be returned to the ghost, in complete silence, by the girl who had taken it. Returning the Cap & The Consequences So the entire village gathered in the churchyard as the girl nervously approached the ghost, cap in hand. She placed it back on its head and asked if it was satisfied. The ghost looked up, a cold gaze in its eyes, and replied, “Yes, but are *you* now satisfied?” It then raised a hand, struck her, and she fell dead on the spot. Without another word, the ghost sank into the grave, disappearing forever. Random Fact of the Episode While you might think that this story might make Icelander's afraid of going to graveyards because they could encounter a ghost, this doesn't seem to be the case. In fact, in the days leading up to Christmas and especially on December 24th, Icelanders can be seen in graveyards decorating the graves of their loved ones with candles and decorative lights.If a group of them go, they tell fond stories of the loved one that they are there to honor. I find it sweet and interesting because you can see the graveyards lit up from a distance.
