"Young goes even further to say, we don't see the objective world. We see something very subjective like a subjective interpretation of the world that we are not really aware of because we have biases we use heuristics and everything. He did not say that but he alluded to it that would be the modern terms for it. The psychiatrist to use certain shortcuts to basically make sense of the world because the world is endless and it's big and limitless and we only have a very small brain and comparison. A very limited brain and you can see this also in optical illusions that are visual context is using certain tricks to get a result which can be then bypassed or misused to create an optical illusion and give the impressions that something looks, for example, 3D even though that's not really 3D for real. So we see this pre filtered content. We have so several layers of filtering happening. We have something. It becomes an image that is then we are able to perceive it or not, whether it's already part of our consciousness that it can dock somewhere, this is why it's been so boring and so often because a lot of information there's just no access point to dock it and the more you learn about something into the more you know about something, the more you can process new information and the more fun it is. Is this most fun is to do things that you can do already well and to develop their flow state, not against not something that Jung has been talking about directly you did not flow state, but to have this conscious development going on, and then, of course, you have your personality that filtering additionally how you see the world. And he had a personality structure, he called it a typology where he said we have certain cognitive functions on more perceiving functions. His model of personality was very much based on perception and experiencing things. So the four functions were sensation thinking, feeling and intuition. Sensation, meaning to be experiencing something as bad. So are there something outside there's a tree inside this an emotion? Then thinking a labeling. So I already said it outside there something, it's a tree labeling. It's great. When it's an emotion and feeling doing a valued judgment whether you are happy that the tree is there or they are not happy with the three or 7, for example, when you draw a car, there's somebody a tree where you don't expect maybe you're happy about the bridge for what reason ever. You have to spots game or something. And then into basically perceive something through the unconscious which is not directly there, but rather the possibility that something could be in the future it's more like a time function. So you see there, there are different channels of information and come into the psych and the ego and to consciousness where you based his typology around to say there are certain venues that people like more. Thinking people like thinking a lot and sensation people like sensitive a lot. And those people live different ways be constant like to do it better. You said, for example, sensation people are very likely stockbrokers. They see the numbers and things that are happening there so they are really just what is their now in this moment and intuitive people are more artistic and artists they rather see possibilities, for example, gamblers. So gamblers have to believe that there's a win. To keep on gambling, hunters is that. So people who try to perceive things that are not really very like to do it that way. And it is because there's this kind of favorite channel that focus on perceiving the world is on that. Which is another limitation there are many different ways to do it. But you have a favorite one and you said that everybody comes into the world with a favorite function that they like to use the most and most likely build a career around people say most capable when you have a strong hand on the weekends you rather use a strong hand all the time. And it is this additional layer of filtering that's happening so that you actually removing more and more from what we would call objective other things that are happening outside and they are responsible that they get filtered and distort different brains and we are then focused with our consciousness on only small things very likely in our favorite function which is only one of four and additionally he sent this labeling of insight and outside is not really an easy feat to say, okay I'm touched by something and of course it can come from inside and come from outside and the labeling takes place and that doesn't mean that we can really separate what is outside really happening and what is inside happening and is that this is one very specific state which was way more common back then where consciousness was not strong because consciousness has this separating discriminating function of being very able to just separate things from another you said the reason why, for example, antiquity and enhancer gather a society's people had very strong feelings about rivers, trees, stones, and so on and set on there's a God living in the river and there's some living in the tree and so on was that they are thinking they are perceiving the outside world, but rather it is from the inside world. They were looking into the pot where all the images come together and did like a mislabeling, let's say, the separation from the outside world and the inside world inside the world being the psyche is not really very accurate. This phenomenon he called participation wasn't his term and it's this spreading out of the psychology that people think what they experience outside is outside but rather is something from their own psychology example astrology when we look into the night sky and we see the stars. If we want to be very unromantic, just write very strangely distributed all over the night sky and they have different intensity and so on and what human beings saw there were constellations. They saw the fishes and they saw a ram and they saw scales and the scorpion and so on and they saw whole stories and they said, oh God, those are, let's say, human invention, but humans did not think that they invented something but rather with the perceived something. The incentive perceived their own psychology, they saw how the site knew was working and sought outside and recorded it. And those are the things he was very interested in this projected psychology, how people saw things because this very often would tell him what is happening inside just through people saying what they see what they perceive to see what the inside of the head looks like and what they're actually seeing. And they have this example of painters you can have ten painters and put them in the same spot and tell them, okay, paint, paint what you see. You get different paintings, which is not only based on the capability of people how well they can paint, but rather also what they can see, but they perceive whether attentional focus lines at and he calls. So worldview that people look into the world and they have a certain expectation on how it works based on their own psychology. So

"And interesting thing is this idea of lunacy and rheumatics comes from Luna, which is Latin for moon. So he saw this as an psychological happening in investigation of astrology, but there's more to it. He admitted to that, there has to be something to this astrological endeavor, especially in context of personality. Because what Jung did very often in his practice when he could not find clearly the personality of the person because he said when you were having no roses, you're not really sure if you're interacting with a person or complex psychological trouble they have inside, which makes it difficult to see, okay, what was the real person? He would get a horoscope. He would get very specific horoscope for the person to have just the starting point to find okay and start digging where is the real person? He said, there is something to it when people are born at certain points in the year that this has an influence on their personality. And in that way, also on their life. But it's really connected to the science because the science under the times 4000 years ago. So that's rather a component of time, which is happening in the unconscious and it's influencing this that the procedure is correct of but rather it's not really connected to the stars and the planets how they were 4000 years ago. It was just a coincidence that the stars and the moon and the planets were like this 4000 years ago. But this is still valid even though that the extraterrestrial bodies are not in the same positions anymore. But this is happening in the psyche because the psychic was projected onto this 4000 years ago. And he said it's even more specific than a month. So it's not only a month that indicates what the personality of a person can be, but rather the day that our minute has an influence when you have people born at the same day at the same time

"Of books that Jung has written about it, and they're freely available and they are very hard to get into because he's talking about this treatise, he's too much in detail. It's a protocol of all the things he found out. When you don't know what is really trying to get it. So when you're interested in alchemy, with the last chapter first, because in the last chapter he will always say, oh, okay, yeah, this is his assistant. He connects it to his own theories. And this is also what I try to do here to just give a conceptional foundation into his interest in alchemy and why he was interested in where he saw all those connections which are him purely psychological with this process of individualization of change of transformation in oneself. In order this creation of the perfect being within oneself to create something new and this perfect being in his terminology is the self, which is the sum of all the things that

"Now I'm laughing here because many of you have jumped on the 6° of AJ benza thing. And some of your desires to see how, if I can match up with these celebrities, well, they're pretty funny. Some of you threw me a few curve balls that seemed hard to hit, but with a little work and some hard thinking, I was able to connect everyone to me within less than 6 moves. Now that was some easy ones in there. I got to admit you got to remember the trick to this game is not how well an actor I was. That's not it at all. I'm no You just gotta have good connectors. And I happen to have good connectors, for instance, I'm only two moves away from Kevin Bacon, having worked with Steve Guttenberg and Steve Guttenberg made Dina with Kevin Bacon. Two moves, I'm with bacon. I have good connectors. I can use guys like the Steve Gutenberg, who's appeared in way over a hundred movies and TV shows. And since he's been in films like police academy, which has had so many different what's the word sequels. Not to mention so many stars, he alone takes me to a ton of people. And on top of that, he made cocoon with Jung cronin and Jessica Tandy to act as from another era, they can connect me to almost anyone since Charlie Chaplin for God's sake. That's just luck on my part. Working with Sylvester Stallone puts me with anyone who ever worked with him in the rocky franchises. They Rambo franchise. The expendable franchise. And now, because he has worked in the Marvel Universe, I'm connected to that place as well.

We have been seeing some move upwards in the WTI crude market. It is up 6 tenths of 1%, $89, 51, and of course, a lot of this is all about the outlook for Chinese demand, too, we had China issuing these sweeping measures on property and COVID controls to support its slowing economy not seeing too much reaction in the markets that are open now, but of course we'll be watching out for the China in Hong Kong market.

"So he saw that as an indication that these archetypes are pushing also humanity into certain directions and influence a huge body of people at the same time and especially the Second World War and the First World War also has an expression of that that these unconscious causes now said, okay, it's time for war. Otherwise he said it's an individual consciousness can't decide now it's time to war. It's something that pushes it from below and it's instant influence a huge body of people. So that's where he saw the influence and the situations that archetypes put us in that are coming from the collective and his sense of collective and conscious consists of archetypes, which can not really be discretely defined. So one critic I once saw in a video was, okay, yeah, when Jung talks about archetypes, how many are there? And it's the same problem, let's say, when you're saying, okay, instinct. How many are there? Nobody knows. We have an idea of what an instinct isn't. I guess we will find more and more with time. And it's difficult to separate one instinct from the other. But it's to have all those recurring innate behaviors that create very specific imagery and very specific behavior from people and create their lives and their experience. That's what he talks about when he talks about archetypes and the collective unconscious as the very impersonal, very farmer moved part of society in contrast to the very personal individual life that once has and something that one has to deal with that's a baggage that's always on the back end has to be taken care of. It can't be really ignored and what needs to talked about when he decried the death of God and what he meant was his breakdown of cultural past and let's say fundamental cohesion within a culture. Was this loss of access to the collective natural part, the binding part between all human beings and I hope this was entertaining and educational? Yeah, so now that I talked for roughly 40, 45 minutes. I would be really interested to know what you're thinking, what you're feeling about these topics, but you might know. I have experience

"They want to be young, they want to have the fast car they want to have other possibilities, even velvet, it's just not about the psyche needs anymore. So when you know the concept of midlife crisis, it's really great description of what's happening psychological there. It is this holding on to the past, not able to move forward. That is causing trouble in the psyche. I'm in the basement, I don't want to get out, so you can constantly arrest by the unconscious. I'm out. I'm established, but I want to keep expanding at certain points of psychiatry. No ton inwards, live in your internal reality. A little bit like Jung experience that he started actively to engage with his unconscious and to recall this and to create culture to create art. The red book that was done by him was incredibly incredible piece of art. He also draws a really huge thick book, a handwritten hand drawn. It took him many, many years to create it. And it was hidden away. It wasn't until 2011, I think. It was published after 50 years after his death. Because of us concerned that people think he's crazy. But because it sounds a little bit crazy. So, life is this always changing up and down movement that's always conflict there's always you try to find department and you try to get a career, you try to buy a house on a pardon in Berlin which is the crazy idea of what you do that. It's always, let's say, pain and suffering. But this means you are alive and they're doing the right thing. So there's no way to get out of it. The Buddhist had it right, life is suffering, but at least you can choose your suffering and this is the sign that your life and that you're changing and evolving. At the end of life, there's death and Jung says the second part of life is a preparation of the assets. The event that everything then normally should work towards, which is a little bit of a weird concept. This would be practically my little introduction into what Jung understands of life and his concept regarding life. You already find a lot of other concepts closely associated with the unconscious, of course, the collective unconscious consciousness ego, anima, dreams. This whole path that I try to explain is also very closely associated with individualization, the way of becoming an individual, the seed of the tree becomes a tree, you are already half the tree in the seat in the beginning, but it takes time to make it flourish, so the life of a person ideally is this flourishing of the psychological factors and to live a life that is specific to one's own psychological needs. This would be my presentation or this topic and I hope this was. Understandable and a little bit entertaining and talking about these things do have any feelings of thoughts about the way that Jung talked about life

"Want the education does and the first half of life does is establishing consciousness to be able to do many things understand many things, know many things have experienced many things to act willfully. And at this midpoint, the sun starts slowly, it's the scent again. This is when the collective gets back again. It's the unconscious system pushing up this okay life is more than your individual achievements and society. This midpoint of life that young describes is around 35 to 40. I think it's the HU mentions the most is 38. So if you remember, Jung's life, this was also at his point, 38, where he had some leave these visions and his academic life came to an end. He was firmly established at the world. And one thing I haven't told you, he married the second richest woman in Switzerland at this point, which was a very good idea, so when we have the chance, maybe the second richest person of any country, he had many children with her. They were living at an very nice villa. Right next to a Lake. He had his own sailboat and every time he had to think it would get into a sailboat. But if this was part of life, he describes that people

"And it takes a while for this ego to emerge out of this black mass of unconsciousness. It's like this little island coming out of the sea this is also a metaphor that Jung uses very often. So in the beginning consciousness is very fragile, very easy to disturb. When you have a child, it has difficulty to do anything willfully fall long stretches of time. But let's get it. Gets better when the child gets older. So the world of the child is extremely subjective. So everybody who had contact with this smaller children knows that they make up the rules of a game newly wired playing the game so you try to get something objective to them so this is a game and these are the rules and when the child is very young, it's incredibly hard to play the game because the type of say no, I'm winning because of that. No, this doesn't happen and so on. So it's pure subjectivity that you can even do tests on it. So in Germany, for those who are not grown up in Germany, before child can enter school elementary school, they have to do a test. It's like a little bit physical test, but also a cognitive test, whether they get certain tasks and they're just look if the child is able to do it. One task, for example, is what the name of your parents to really dissociate mother and father that they also have a name which is different than mother and father, and also like, okay, draw, for example, a human being, whether the child really does this and drawn a human being instead draws a dinosaur. I know this because I draw the dinosaur. Which almost got me not enrolled into school. It's just that this possibility and the ability to steer actions to adhere to objective factors to believe that things are happening outside of yourself that the world is more than yourself. It's important part of developmental psychology. When this is not yet developed, children are incredibly close to the collective unconscious. So they are very open for mythology and fairytales and so on because these are products of the collective unconscious. The dreams that children have, Jung was also very dream to dream interpretation that because of his psychoanalytic roots are archetypal and nature you get images and pictures and situations which are not from the subjective situation of the child, but rather of collective source where you have images that popped up in different cultures different epochs that were completely separated from each other. Jung noted that this could be one of the reasons why in the eastern part of the world, children were seen as born again because they had this weird specific knowledge about specific cultural concepts where people thought, okay, they already know this is because they are born again,

"He stopped teaching. He only practiced helping patients. And this is when new stage of Jung's life started and it was I think roughly with 38 and just remember this number will come up again. In this investigation into his in our world, he lay the foundations for everything that Jung is mostly known for the collective unconscious anima animals shadow. These cultural aspects became very important for him, so in the past it was extremely academic, extremely scientific, psychoanalysis, publishing papers, giving talks, and here there's spiritual part of his life takes over. And he does this for 13 years. He tries to explore scientifically the experiences he had and builds all those very interesting concepts about how the psyche is structured. He draws from different sources of mythology to find common themes and threats to get insight into human nature and basically the part and us that we have common with everybody else in every other person in the world. He does as a search for 13 years until he gets a copy in a sound. It's a translated book about Chinese alchemy, the secret of the golden flower, I think it's called, and he has asked to write the full of what for it. And he reads the translation and finds extreme overlap between his experiences and this experience. These, let's say that wisdom formulated in the book, and this is very old book, I'm very old Chinese book. This is when you really start to investigate a lot of in alchemy, and he won't stop till the end of his life talking about alchemy. And he sees a unique chance and alchemy to understand not only how the mind works, but also the modern mind. So extremely prolific works till the end of his life, which was in 1961.

I read a lot of young I read almost all the books that are commercially available and it took me now almost three years where I read every day 20 pages. And he has written really a lot there. You have the whole collective works as 19 books. It's just like a meter of books. I've had stack and you have seminars, you have his autobiography, you have talks of him, and he has let us a lot of books with letters. And I always try to find videos or podcasts or articles describing union concepts to understand them better and the more I read about those, the more I realize that they're all a little bit mushy and they are missing some aspects because Jung has really a lot of aspects and a lot of them get dropped so I realized the concept are not so good and I joined a lot of other meetups. People were there always very open and very curious about jungian concepts and I thought, okay, good. I start my own group. We have almost 180 people versus great events are every two weeks. Normally, the structure for the new guys is I give a little presentation about a topic and then we can get in a discussion about it to go more in depth. Also give your viewpoint on it. I would talk a little bit about Jung's life first because it fits very nicely today's topic Jung was born in Switzerland in 1875. His father was a pastor. They had this, let's say, inside joke that he maybe took a little bit too serious that he might be the unofficial grandson of Goethe. This spawned a lifelong interest of him into Goethe and his works, he grew up a bit of a rural area that he didn't leave really until his 18th birthday. He moved after school to basil and to learn there as a student, they came onto contact with psychology and said, this is really what I want to do. First, he didn't want to do it because his father was a little bit psychologically inclined to that, but training there. He did it in secret. So he studied, finished in this very new field of psychotherapy and psychology, which was back then cutting edge science, how to deal with people who have psychological problems, and it was really a big shift in time of the whole mentality.

"You know, you hear a lot of companies and businesses saying, how can I help? How can I reach out? How can we create more diverse businesses and it seems to me that microloans are a an important part of that, right? That expanding out microloans. Absolutely small entrepreneurs is where you actually create more black owned businesses, more Latino owned businesses, more women owned businesses. Absolutely. I mean, I am just proud that we can double down triple down. You tell me how much more relevant grameen is today than it was even coming into this moment in history, really. We were born out of bridging the inequity. The income inequality, the inability for black and brown women to have equal access to capital. We were born out of the fact that women are disproportionately under invested in that $1 out of $23 before COVID-19 when the economy was good, was being given to a woman entrepreneur. Pretty unacceptable. 4%. So when you bridge that and now you look at obviously the health pandemic, which has disproportionately affected families living in poverty. The economic impact on small businesses and micro businesses and then the moment that we are in the very necessary moment we are in in terms of fighting for and making a change now in eliminating systemic racism and inequality. We're in that mission. We always have been and I think that the role and the need is even greater than ever. So many, many things have to be changed, but one of the fastest ways is to give them equal access to capital and the American Dream. I read that like 99% of your loans are repaid, which is pretty great. So I mean, it's amazing. Yeah. Amazing. But you may face a future where it may not be that high because of the economic crisis. And that may be fine, I guess. I think it's expected. I mean, I have to say that when I'm stunned at is that of the new loans that we've issued because people have wanted more money than new loans that we've issued since April 1st. It is over at 99% repayment, which is just extraordinary. And inspiring. But certainly some of our members who are in some of our more distressed businesses who have been challenged with health issues themselves for those members we have been giving them relief, giving them a longer time to pay. We have actually stood up a fund to give assistance to those who have been affected by COVID themselves, but in the hospital, it has been heartbreaking work. Guy, we've lost 35 members now as of this morning over the last four weeks. I do think that it speaks to the low income predicament of multiple generations living together, no place to isolate, so even if tested, positive, very difficult. And 25% of our members have either been affected or had someone in their family impacted with the disease, but we believe that if we can fund these entrepreneurs, that will be the rebuilding of America. When you think about Andrea, your career and your in your journey as a leader in your successes and failures and what you learned from those and also, you know, your opportunity to get better at what you do. Do you think that you that you have leadership skills from the beginning or that you actually learned how to be a leader? I think that I've learned how to be a leader, you know, I was born with certain attributes and DNA that have helped, I think that I'm not really afraid. I have a lot of courage to be bold and sort of stand apart. I think I have empathy, to listen and understand the point of view of others, and I'm a big believer in pathetic leadership. And hopefully, people would say, you know what? She's pretty authentic. Doesn't mean I'm always going to agree with her, but there's the different agenda.

"Welcome back to wisdom from the top. I'm guy Roz. So when you got to Avon, I mean, the business model depended primarily on direct to consumer, we can't correct today, direct to consumer, which means something slightly different. But it was representatives around the world who would receive a commission based on the sales of cosmetics they would make. Yes, I would say, though, that the one thing that I used to tell all of our employees worldwide and all of our sales associates was that, you know, what we really were selling was an earnings opportunity for women. Over a 125 years ago in 1886, the company was incepted by a very prescient man. He was a direct seller, door to door seller, and so where he was extraordinarily ahead of his time. Was he gave the first Avon lady, misses PF E alby, the opportunity to work outside the home when that was heresy. And it was not a popular thought, but he was about equal opportunity for women, not just men to actually earn their own money and get out of the home. And that really is the founding essence of Avon and it still is today that it is obviously about women's products, but more importantly, it was about entrepreneurship opportunities, independent business opportunities for millions of people..

So Avon was really, I mean, this is sort of hard to imagine today because the culture of door to door sales reps is kind of gone. Today it's just less common. And when you got to Avon, that was the business model, it was door to door sales, but also parties like Avon reps would have parties for Friends to sell their products. Yes, I think that the way to think about it that the way that the industry today and this is beyond Avon has morphed is two things. One, a combination of high touch and high-tech websites have become integral. But secondly, the concept of door to door versus social selling relationship selling are two different things. I mean, we always used to call Avon the original social network. And there is still a role for relationships. There is still a role to have both to be able to have somebody that you trust recommend a product. She could be someone that works with you. And your school and is selling it at lunchtime and or it could be someone from your church or somebody from your neighborhood that you know..

"The law. Listen to the is history. We have to learn from stuff like this. I mean i was a huge student of learning from people in watching. What did you do a my one of my favorite questions. When i would find. Somebody ended up arresting them for something. I'd say how'd you get away with it. What went into your thinking like. For example burglars burglary one guy broke into like twenty seven houses. We had a hell of a time catching him and when we did my question was how did you get away with it. What did you do. And he walked me through the way he case the neighborhood what he was looking for what was important to him. How we went about the door and his mo was basically he'd case the neighborhood looked around. Ring the doorbell. If nobody answered then he'd walk around at the back door kicking the back door. Why because nobody. It'd be tougher to see the back door then the front door so but anyway but i mean it just. It was amazing. Listen to georgia stories and like we said you know and here he is. Here's george admitting to everybody that he is. When i said you know he says be honest with ya. Shot very few people in my life. You know more than five or less than five well less than five. I challenge you to go find an interview. Georgia's said that he actually worked with the cia down in panama. Then that was the biggest shocker. For me i just that would not be. I think i was believe it or not. I was speechless When he came up with that one just because it was so incredulous. But to just go along with you you were just saying there. Morgan about You know yeah we know. These guys are criminals. But it's just like some of the people we have to put on the witness stand that were participants in crime whether a drug dealers associates involved in murders. Whatever it might be we don't we. It's hard to find a priest. Or you know upstanding citizen who pays taxes and has successful business and has the cookie cutter family to come on the on the witness stand and be able to tell you all about the crowd you have to deal with these people but the benefit of that is we as law enforcement. Learn how they operate on the inside. And why would you to bring up to use so now you know what we know. You can hear how they were able to commit their crimes. Not that we're trying to make you investigators but if you weren't or criminals we don't wanna make you weren't interested. You wouldn't be listening to our show would you. That's right again so look great stuff and we still. We tip our hat to george because he came on he was very open about stuff. He predicted his own death. You know he said this is what it'll be. I mean for him to say when asked how much your product has gone up your nose each half a million dollars worth. But that's not what killed him. He said it was the drink. Yeah so you know what. George god rushie soul rest in peace brother rest in peace brother and maybe maybe carlos will get that big fishing boat. It would have been really interesting to get carlos george well quite a bit of murder. Yeah well we'll see what happens. We're working on some things but anyway.

I seen we talk about the karla sing. Did you ever really let the carlos thing out of your head or did it keep. Was it there you know getting into the nineteen eighties is this stuff was going. Did you ever really let go of that or did that. Was that something that stayed with you. And stay would mean until in fact it's so stays with me because we understood. Yeah i would let cows out now.

Does that sound like george young. He early get do too much baggage to carry. Well look in the eighties. Things were really starting to heat up more planes more kilos. one thing. That caught my eye. Because stephen i both live just basically five minutes from each other. We're here in northern virginia. But you talked about flying a load into norfolk airport. One time in virginia. 'cause nobody was watching and you taxi down to the end of the way dumped your cargo your load and then pulled in for customs. How did you know i mean. I knew that they talk. Maybe it was one of the pilots told you about the gap in coverage. But how did you know. There was a gap in At the airport that would allow you to go down to the end and offload before you came back up to customs. Let's ironic because a lot of strange. Twist of fate happened to me throughout my life. And i was looking run another plane. I looked in trader. Plame which those don't know is the airplane may magazine that you know selling aircraft And said the guy had I wanted to dc3's but he had british from theses recalled of young crown airlines and novel.

The Oprah Winfrey Show: The Podcast
Mind, Body Connection
"Hi Everyone, I'm Oprah. Winfrey would you answer true or false? Two the following statement my emotions and my thoughts have a direct bearing on how physically healthy I am, and I'm sick and my mental attitude can help to make me well well. My guest say that both are true that there is a crucial link between the mind and the body. My first guest is a surgeon who works with cancer patients that other doctors have sent home to die. He tells them. To Abandon Conventional Treatments like chemotherapy, but to combine them with a whole new belief system about life, and the purpose for living his remarkable results are documented in his book. It's called. Love Medicine and miracle. Welcome Dr Bernie, Siegel to. My second guest says that there is a direct connection between our emotions and our vulnerability to disease. Specifically, he says that certain emotions increase the risk of strokes and may even trigger certain viruses to cause disease. He even says that tumors have been known to shrink if a patient thinks them smaller welcome, clinical psychologist and author of Super Immunity, Dr Paul Pierce saw walking. If you can think certain tumors smaller, why can't you think other things? Why can't you if you have colon cancer? Why can't you think that you don't have it or if you have a heart murmur? Why can't you think that you don't have it? Why do you have control over some things and not control over others point a great deal of control everything right ideas at every thought you. You have results in a shower of chemicals that alter the body. It's defense system its immune system. It's healing capacity. There's a healer within that we have control over there is disease. There are things that break in US illnesses, a natural part of living, but we all get sick. Sometimes we can find that healer within somebody what said it. You know that God cures. The doctor sends the bill. That must have been dad who said back. And you have documented many many cases of people who? Appear to have miracles in their life, but you say there's no such thing as Miracle Yeah. Needs in his book cancer ward used the term self-induced healing. Yes, the interesting thing about medicine. If you get back to bills in business medicine, the only business that has not studied suggests we do a lot to people who don't do well. Nobody stops and says why don't you get cancer? Why don't you AIDS when you meet the AIDS virus? And what I'm saying is? If you study survivors and you study success, you have something to teach. It is not an accident when you don't die when you're supposed to according to a doctor. What is it? It is a change in you and a change in your life. That's part of what we're talking about. There are things called. Neuro receptors you our body mind. You are not a body and mind if you change your disease changes because your body changes really yes. You're not your body and mind. You're not just a body, or you want some interesting. Yeah, facts, things like people with multiple personalities, yes, can have a disease in one personality, not in another can have an allergy in personality, not in another studying, and this goes all around the planet. This fascinating, yes. Yeah nobody ever told me that in medical school. Nobody ever told me in nineteen, thirty three I think it was Carl Jung interpreted the dream and made a physical diagnosis so I work with dreams with drawings. You're what's going on in your body. We can bring that awareness out. So does this mean that each of us has control over our diseases remarkably slow listen to a bunch of surprising things never taught me in school, either where the only animal in the world dies on a given day of the week more than other days. That is Mondays people, the majority of people who have a heart home let me. Let me interrupt this for one second, because that's very important statement number one is we all die someday? Get the bad news over in the beginning of the program. Death is not a failure. Okay, but the hospital everybody dies at two in the morning. We have incredible control over when we die now there's a reason i. Well my communist try dying Newnan Hospital. They won't let because reputation is based on. You're not dying and the other is families that you don't say to each other I love you, you say. You're rotten, mother, kid, you know father, so you die at two in the families asleep or left, but if you have that kind of control over turning off your live. You also have a lot of control over turning the mind. Remarkably so when you have gall bladder surgery. Room faces trees instead of a wall. You're out about a week earlier
Monocle 24: The Globalist
Dissecting Trump's Twitter 'Diplomacy'
"Their Israeli for better unusually for worse no more enthusiastic proponent of twitter diplomacy in US President Donald Trump joining us now to dissect a representative few of trump's interestingly punctuated blurts. Is Brian Close political scientist. I author and Washington Post columnist by way of imbuing trump's tweets with a finesse. The ill deserve. They are read by foreign desk producer. You'll engulf on any and all grammatical infelicitous of the fault of the author not the narrator September fifteenth two thousand nineteen mystery missiles target. Saudi oilfields Saudi Arabia. Oil Supply was attacked. There's reason to believe that we know the culprit are locked and loaded depending on verification but are waiting to hear from the kingdom as to who they believe was the cause of this attack and under what terms we would proceed. This is amazing tweet because this is the second time that Donald Trump has issues locked and loaded. The first was when he was saying that he was about to attack North Korea. And it just shows you know the twitter diplomacy made on the fly where nobody believes what trump obsess anymore. You know that He. He is a saying who's behind the attack. People are questioning that and then you have. This claim that he's about to attack them which people again are questioning with good reason that his twitter threats are increasingly erratic and also unfounded and never backed up October. First two thousand seventeen reaching out to Kim Kim Jong UN being nasty Rotman hasn't worked in twenty five years. Why would it work now? Clinton failed. Bush failed and Obama failed. I won't fail. I love this tweet. For several reasons I is that he's has been nice to rocket man hasn't worked in twenty five years. Kim Jung took office in two thousand eleven. So penalized him when he was a child probably wasn't going to be a very fruitful way of conducting diplomacy anyway Clinton and Bush of course did not even deal with Kim Jong into any point and then the second layer of this of course is saying that being nice to him hasn't worked it won't work now. Well trump said that he was in love with Kim Jong Hoon after this tweet so I would classify that as being nice and then finally. I won't fail well. I mean what's happened. Since trump's multiple summits with Kim Jong is that Kim has gotten a massive boost international national profile and legitimacy by meeting with President without any preconditions and has simaltaneously ramped up the missile program and the nuclear capability which is the only point of involving involving Kim Jong UN and diplomacy so there are many many problems that tweets but my favorite one is the idea that trying to have diplomatic relations with a three year. Old Somehow didn't work. July thirtieth two thousand nineteen trade wars are good apparently and easy to win. China is doing very badly worst year in twenty seven was supposed supposed to start buying our agricultural product now no signs that they are doing so that is the problem with China they just don't come through. Our economy has become much much larger than the Chinese economy is last three years. Where do you start with the stuff of it? The idea that the US economy has eclipsed the Chinese economy in the last three years because because of trump is an amazing claim. And then the other thing. That's sort of unspoken this tweet but if you know trump's tweets really jumps out to you is the number of times that he contradicts himself so he constantly says things on twitter like China has just announced that they are going to be buying massive amounts of soybean from a great Patriot farmers and then a week or two who later. He has this tweet where he says. Effectively they're not actually doing it and then he'll come back and make the same claim again and so it's this sort of whiplash that twitter allows him to get away with because his base. Here's this they think okay China's now going to buy some soybeans well. The people in his twitter base are not the people who are actually selling soybeans. So they don't know if it's happened and they believe him and he can get away with it and this is where I think. Twitter diplomacy also bleeds into domestic politics. Where you end up having a lack lack of accountability because you can just shoot off a claim everybody moves on and then it's like it never happened when it's false? I think that the trade war stuff though is also indicative of how miscalculation can be very dangerous because China is actually reading these tweets trying to make not just sense of them but make policy based on them and they have no idea what it means. I mean it's riddled with Typos and grammatical errors. And then you know. They're they're scratching their their chins sort of saying will two weeks ago. He seemed to be happy with President. Then she now he's not and this causes again. Miscalculation which is I think the name of the game for twitter diplomacy July eighth two thousand nineteen some thoughts on Brexit and on the. UK's outgoing going. I'm blessed to the. US have been very critical about the way the UK and Prime Minister Theresa May Handle Brexit. What a mess? She and her representatives have created. I told her how it should be done but she decided to go another way. I didn't know the ambassador but he's not liked or well within the US we will no longer deal with him. The good news for the wonderful United Kingdom is that they will soon have a new prime minister. While I thoroughly enjoyed the magnificent state visit last month it was the queen who I was most impressed with so this tweet I think unveil some of the other problems with twitter when it comes to diplomacy and that is that statements of national importance is can be made without vetting. You know if there was actually communicate from the White House in the past this would have gone through a series of different advisors it would have been checked and the first instance in which trump trump tweeted about theresa. May He misspelled her name and accidentally tagged somebody with I believe one hundred sixty twitter followers. So you know. It's not exactly a crack team at the White House when it comes comes to twitter but then beyond this when he says she didn't go the way that I said what he's actually talking about according to the UK government is his suggestions that she sued the the European European Union as a way to solve brexit which his maybe it's ludicrous it's idiocy it's not going to work and then you have sort of the basic ignorance that comes out of these types of tweets. Were win actually. Trump arrives in the UK and gets pressed on various tweets though ask him questions and the followup about say is the NHS on the table the National Health Service on table in trade negotiations and he doesn't know what it is and this is again. You know this is the problem when you can make a statement you interfere in the affairs or politics of an allied country country and have no idea what. You're talking about October sixteenth two thousand eighteen taking Saudi Arabia's word for it just spoke with the Grand Prince of Saudi Arabia who totally denied any knowledge of what took place in their Turkish consulate. He was with Secretary of State. Mike Pompeo during the call and told me that he has already started and will rapidly. Expand fanned a full and complete investigation into this matter. Answers will be forthcoming shortly. This is of course about Jamal Kashogi who's a fellow columnists the Washington Post just before he was murdered and dismembered by the Saudi government which then led to a series of attempted cover ups by the Saudi government's with trump's help where he tried to sweep it under the rug. And and say you know they don't know anything about it and provide political cover to the Saudis and I think you know. This is the dark side of twitter where you can very quickly spread. What is clearly misinformation in pursuit of diplomatic relationship where trump clearly values for a variety of reasons whether it's strategic reasons or his financial conflicts of interest with the Saudi Kingdom? And you know a different president a pre twitter era first off would not have made the statement and secondly would have waited till the facts came out before staking the credibility of the White House on something something that was going to be very quickly debunked. I mean one of the famous examples during the Kashogi investigation was the idea that he had left the consulate. When the Saudis put a body double in clothes it was similar to Shoji's but forgot to change his shoes I mean it was amateur hour and for the US president in the White House to be affiliated with it because of such sporadic in a quick quick tweets was just embarrassing for the credibility of the United States August? Twenty of two thousand nine hundred an attempt at humor accompanied by a mockup of a trump trump casino on the Tundra. I promise not to do this degree land so this is a a photo shopped photo of trump property a trump hotel in greenland amongst a sort of sparse looking fishing village. And I think this is well is one of those moments where you have trump make a comment in the sort of real oh world right off off of cyberspace where he says. Maybe we'll buy greenland and then it sparks. This whole controversy of how Silva's claim is this proposal etc and and then he tries to make light of it as though it was a joke to begin with on twitter. But I think that this is also important in highlighting the risks of twitter in terms of photoshop or doctored images and trump did this with greenland as joke and there was obviously a joke. But there's other times where he's done and hasn't been a joke so he has sent tweets where they have basically doctored video video of Jim Acosta the CNN reporter who was temporarily banned from the White House looking more aggressive than he was because they speed it up his arm movement yeah right and this went throughout the conservative twitter sphere. Very very quickly. You can imagine something like that happening in diplomacy to. That's the big risk is that as deep technology for example fake videos that look very convincing or photo shopped images or any sort of disinformation campaign actually gets promoted by governments and by presidents presidents. That's where we answered very very dangerous territory and this type of stuff. I mean again when you think about the combination of Dr Video doctored images all being promoted by trump trump with no regard for the facts and the lack of credibility that he already has how much more dangerous it gets when you try to make sense of as a foreign diplomat Brian. Close thank you

Aaahh!!! Classic Monsters
"We thought we would talk. Hello Classic movie monsters or I guess. A derivative thereof You know all the films like Frankenstein Dracula creature the Black Lagoon and salon boy. Oh boy so yeah so we are. Actually we each picked one classic creature. We're going to be sharing history in details about that creature in the story about the story about them so should we. Should we drinks. Yeah okay so I'm going to actually hand the mic over to Tracy and you because I she has forty drinks that she's going to be sure they're all so I'm focusing on vampires and at total wine there was actually quite a bit to choose from uh-huh depending on how elaborate you WanNa get with the topic. There was even like walking dead wine assume that seemed like sheeting. That seemed like that would be better for his. Obviously yeah it's because it's actually from the TV exactly. So I can't have rick on the cover and be thinking of Bram Stoker works for me with that said that I brought three drinks because being hungover and being two o'clock in me not having lunch it just seems weird like crack. Open a bottle of wine right now but I do have Francis Coppola diamond red plans talk a little bit about Coppola going on. Because you can't really talk about Dracula directly without talking about Coppola and then I also because I don't like I said if I'm going to open that I also brought four. They use my teeth to pull the bag out. I have a lovely temper neo. Oh I love to drag on. And we'll talk a little bit about what dragons dragons relates reverse dragged him the vampire at least in literature but like I said that's a bit heavy so honestly what I think I'm going to start with. Breath is a nice blood. Orange Margarita and S- To serve it in as they said I just live seven houses down I brought on my own Hamilton Sippy Cup when I say Hola pouring that that's awesome chewing that All amazing choices see. That doesn't take a random rationalization cody did you notice that mixture. You have doesn't actually have to kill it in it. Oh I I forgot I also brought my own patrol. Never leave home without it. So the monster I chose today is Where wolves so what? I'm drinking today. Is a Lithuanian heritage. Beer called where wolf it's literally called Werewolf and it has a quite a high alcohol content. So that's so funny because just right before for the show Tracy and I were talking about how we like picking drinks. That aren't just the name. They require narrative. Chris here's where we'll there's nothing with that sound so bitchy all right so Chris is still looking to see what kind of beer is is it. Strong connect have a taste. Today makes one of us. Oh that is delicious is really good. That's dangerous Oh my God. I'm just GonNa Covet this break a command. It's a Belgian dark El okay. I'M GONNA try that too. Yeah so for my drink. I'm actually Old England. I'm actually doing Frankenstein. And so and that was that was what I was GONNA do. I was I went into English. Oh I hear terrible and like you know what. I just can't drink this after my night. I'm going to get something good. Mary Shelley found something actually liked Mary. Shelley well well I whenever you look at all these old stories. I what I think of it is. They all kind of intertwined sometimes in ways and they're just kind of these wild crazy stories stories. So I've found a blackberry merlot called twisted Vine Ohio. Yeah good expected to get a couple. I rolls maybe like really all right so with that I will get into history I didn't want to do anything like Hollywood movie. Poor history because that would have been very long and excessive in instead I thought I would give a weird overview on the history of monsters the word monster itself derives from the Latin word monstrum meaning to demonstrate or monarch meaning to warn There's also the Latin word monstrum which Just means abnormal or supernatural but can also mean wonder or miracle generally speaking monsters are physical whether real or imagined representation of those things society as Dean leaned unknown or unnatural and most mostly those things that we fear and cannot explain physically. Speaking a monster may have some unusual characteristics. In fact one time things such as two-headed cavs or babies born with abnormalities were considered monsters so basically anything that was outside of what society claimed as quote. Normal aw was seen as monstrous of course as we know in addition to the physical characteristics. Munster's we'll do some terrible things or act out on the way beyond the standing of society being set that any one of us in this room could be considered a monster me with my blue hair and you both being super tall me with my gay so monsters there's all of you There are a ton of tons of monsters that go back in history.
