So last time, I was on the Facebook Marketplace looking for something to flip when I came across this entire gaming setup. I checked the price and saw that it was only going for $450, so I jumped on that immediately because I knew I could instantly resell this thing and make a little bit of extra money. It wasn't until I got there that I realized this was not a regular purchase. I don't know a lot of that. I don't know if I told you. It belonged to my adult son and he passed away last year. He was 33 years old. So after loading everything into my car and driving home, I went through all of the hard drives, seeing if I could find anything that the dad might have wanted and then appraised everything for its total value. So now, sitting here looking at all of this, if I were to try and sell it right now, I believe I could get around $700. And normally that's what I would do because flipping is how I make a little extra side money. However, this computer is truly one of a kind and is hands down the nicest computer I have ever purchased second hand. And lastly, the story behind this computer unfortunately hits a little bit too close to home for me. I don't want to get too into that, but that is a big reason why I'm going to do what you were about to see. I spent a lot of time thinking about what I should do with this computer. I tried my best putting myself in the shoes of the original owner of this computer and after sitting with it for a few days, I came to the conclusion that he would probably want what any other PC builder enthusiast of his caliber would have wanted with a five year old system and that is an upgrade. So I have a few of my favorite components here to the side that we are going to be using to make this thing a little bit nicer. So without further ado, let's get started. Please, please, please, please, please work. All right, so as you guys can tell, the computer looks a lot different now. So let's talk about the upgrades we made. As for the case, we swapped from the Cooler Master Trooper to an NZXT H500i and we did that for a couple reasons. Number one, the H500 and H700 cases from NZXT are my favorite cases of 2018 and I wanted to incorporate a piece of myself into this setup. Number two, when I opened up the original computer, I saw that there was a very obvious black and red color scheme that was attempted, but wasn't able to be seen from the outside because there is no glass panel on the Cooler Master Trooper. I wanted to keep the original owner's color scheme, so by going with the H500i, not only could we get a clean black on the outside, but now we can show all of the red accented parts that he chose originally on the inside. Plus, with the RGB lights that come already built into an H500i case, we can now push those reds even farther and the build looks absolutely stunning. For the graphics card, we upgraded the GTX770 to an ASUS Strix 1070. I specifically went for the 1070 as a way of commemorating the original decision to go for the 770 since both cards have the specific 70 iteration. The 1070 also has RGB lights which I turned red to help keep consistent with the black and red color scheme. Now we went through a pretty quick time lapse for the build, so you guys probably didn't notice a lot of the challenges that came while rebuilding this thing. The biggest challenge out of all of them was actually the dust. This was by far the dirtiest system that I had ever worked inside, and I actually had to wear a mask at one point because of how much I was coughing and sneezing. It was a little overwhelming, and there's not much you can do about that, and it should be expected considering the computer had been sitting around for so long. The other big challenge was the CPU cooler. Now, originally this computer had a Corsair H100 all-in-one liquid cooler inside its system, and it's a great cooler, but unfortunately an AIO typically has a lifespan of two to three years, and this one was very clearly showing signs of age because when I did turn it on in the original build, it was showing an idle temperature of 40 degrees Celsius, which is about 10-15 degrees higher than where you want to see your CPU at if you're not doing anything on the system. I planned on replacing it with an RGB air cooler which I had specifically picked out, but for whatever reason, even though it said that it was compatible with the CPU socket size in the system, the fitting would just never ever screw in. I tried for an hour to see if I was doing something wrong, but eventually I got so frustrated I gave up and just chose to find another CPU cooler which I had lying around, only to find out that even though that one was also compatible, it wouldn't fit. So my advice to anyone upgrading an older system, don't expect newer air coolers to work with older hardware, even if the compatibility says it will. Despite all that, I was still able to solve the problem and use an H60 by Corsair, which I had lying around, which I had only used for four months. It ended up being a great decision because now the idle temperatures are at 30 degrees Celsius as opposed to 40. So, now that we're done building this thing, let's see if we can find someone who wants to buy it. Alright, so about three hours have passed since I finished building the computer, I posted it and someone is already ready to buy it. As you can see here on the desk, there's nothing back here, I've loaded it all into the trunk of my car and we're going to head over now and see if we can't surprise this guy with a little Christmas present. Hi, are you guys buying the computer? Yeah. Awesome, Chris. Nice to meet you, Steve. Hey, Johnson. Johnson, nice to meet you. What kind of games do you guys play? Dota. Dota, PUBG. PUBG? League of Legends? That's my favorite one. The processor is an older one, but it's still very strong. So, it's a 4770K, which the K means you can overclock it. Intel. I don't know if you guys do video editing or Photoshop or any kind of content creation. But if you do start to get into that stuff, then maybe you want to think about overclocking for that. Thank you. You guys, right now I'm using a 5-year laptop. Yeah. Dota is like a laptop. Oh, God. We only have laptops. Yeah, get off the laptop. Broken laptops, like 600, right? Yeah. Let's see. One, two, three, four, five, four. Six. So, I got a question. You guys are going to be using the computer, right? And I get the rest of the stuff. So, it's going to be like your two's computer? Mine, yeah. Okay. We're going to buy another computer again. Okay. So, I just ask you to make me a promise. This was a very important computer. It was special. And I put a lot of work and time into it. You guys promise you can take care of it? Oh, yeah. So, I'll make you a deal. It's Christmas. You guys are really cool. Oh, thank you. Yeah, no, take 100. Yeah, take 100 off. Thank you. Yeah, no worries. Thank you so much. Just, you know, promise me to take care of it because it's important computer. We'll last forever. I appreciate it. No worries. Hey, thank you guys. Appreciate it. Later, boys. All right. So, we just sold the computer. And honestly, I could not be happier with the people I ended up selling it to. Originally, I was worried about selling this thing because I was concerned that I would end up getting it wouldn't be the right fit, if that makes sense. But the two Filipino dudes that I just met up with, I don't know, you could just, you could tell they were good people. And one of them even just moved here.  And he actually used to be a video editor like me. So, I'm glad we could hook him up with the good system for a really good price. And he can get back into that. But this video is not over. There is still one more thing that we have to do before we can wrap this one up. Hey, Mr. Sorry so much for bugging you this late at night. So, I know you don't know this. So, what I would, what I was, when I saw the computer, what I do, you know, for like a side hustle is, you know, kind of helping pay the bills and everything. I buy and sell computers. And when I saw the computer, I was just like, wow. I think that's a really great price. I can, you know, help pay for some stuff. Yeah. When I heard your story and I was thinking about it on the drive home, it actually, it hit a little bit too close to home and not to dump anything on you. But I'm actually going through somewhat of a similar situation, but on the opposite. And when I took the computer home, I opened it up and I looked inside and I saw, and you know, not to nerd out, but saw how beautiful the computer was. I just started getting really emotional. And I thought that selling this and making it for myself is not the right thing to do. And that's not what I wanted to do. So, what I did was I actually took the computer and I refurbished it and upgraded it to the best of my ability. I knew about everything I could do with computers and I put my soul into it.  And I was able to sell it to them and I asked them, I promised them, or I asked them to promise me, please, you know, will you take care of this? If it's okay with you, it would be if you'd be okay with accepting what I was able to make off of it as a Christmas present, but also as my way of saying thank you for letting me see your son's work.  Yeah, absolutely. I'm dead serious. You want to step inside him now? Yeah, sure. I don't know. It's a firm belief of mine that if your parents take the time to, you know, put their love, their energy, and their time above all things into you that, you know, when you get older, when you get smart enough, when you get wise enough, it is your obligation. It's a privilege for you to try to help take care of them and do what's right for them and, you know, for... Do you want to sit down or anything? That's okay.   I think there was like 50 years, maybe it was almost 75 to 100 people who were wanting to buy it.  I didn't know what it was worth. Yeah. But that wasn't a motivation, you know. Thinking about the mortality of your family members is tough.  Sorry to hear that.  And another thing I wanted to do is, you know, I was thinking maybe if I could help put some good karma or something out there in the world, maybe, you know, maybe the universe will maybe try to help me back out. Yeah. But seriously, you know, coming back to the computer, it truly was the nicest thing I've ever seen because when you really get to a high level of building and, you know, enthusiast-grade stuff, there are so many tiny specificities and tiny little things that you need to know that take so long to learn. And your son knew all of it. Yeah. So it was pretty good, huh? It was... Wow. Five years ago was the best thing you could possibly have. Yeah. So I really am serious about this.  Yeah. Okay. I appreciate that. I'll give this to his sister, you know, he has one sibling.  We've obviously all missed my son, but you know, she's really been, you know, to work with that. Yeah. Okay. I appreciate that. I appreciate you. Thank you for taking your time. I'm sorry for bugging you this late. It's just, it's been like kind of thumping in my head and my chest for the last however long. Yeah. So, you know, again, you know, I hope, hope that everything turns out in the long run. Okay. Good for you. Yeah. I'm so too. And you as well. Okay. Thanks again. Thank you so much. Thank you. One more time. Appreciate it. Sorry. Yeah. And that's the end of the video, guys. I appreciate you guys watching and I hope you found this entertaining or informative in any way, shape or form, just the regular outro. Very Christmas. And, you know, as always, have a great day.


It was an average normal day when the world started falling apart. To be honest, I almost missed it. I woke up late to head to work. It doesn't really matter where I work anymore, I suppose. Not with, you know, the impending end of the world. Let's just say I worked as an IT specialist at a large corporation. I wasn't looking forward to yet another long day of sitting around explaining to Karen why she cannot print a YouTube video or arguing whether or not Carl should be allowed to turn off his antivirus and be allowed to go to any site he pleased on company computers. I'll be honest, I seriously considered calling in sick, but my personal sense of honor and duty wouldn't let me. Maybe I should have. I went through my normal daily routine, getting up, showering, brushing my teeth, combing my mess of hair into something that looked like I actually tried, then grabbing a couple microwave burritos and a thermos of coffee on my way out the door. The drive there was uneventful, and when I sat down, I looked at my submitted tickets. Surprisingly, there weren't any.  Perhaps today wouldn't be that bad. Then the first ticket came in. It wasn't anything too major, just an office executive with a pop-up on his screen that won't go away. I clicked on the email, scanned the details when I realized something. This wasn't just any office schmuck, this was Janet Klein. She actually understood how computers worked and knew better than to click on random links. I started to become concerned and my fears only multiplied when another ticket came in, saying the exact same thing. Then another, then another, and another, and another, and another, until I had hundreds of identical requests for help. Oh God, I said, putting my head in my hands. A cyber attack. Great. Wonderful. The frantic dinging of my computer, letting me know I had a new tech ticket died down as presumably the last of the office put in their complaints. And I took a long swig of my coffee. For a second, I simply stared at the massive emails in my inbox, then sighed heavily and started to go through the mountains of resetting the network when, wouldn't you know it, a new window opened up on my screen. It had a bright red background, and there was a huge block of text in what looked like a system commands at the top. I figured it must be some sort of ransomware and that they were making demands, lacking anything else to do, because my mouse had disappeared behind the window. I began to read error 005 9879, critical system failure, running diagnostics, reality processing, OK, artificial intelligence, OK, time, space, continuity engine, OK, reality anchor core, failing error message. If you're reading this, that means something has gone horribly wrong. So I'm going to get right to the point. You may have already had your suspicions, but the world around you isn't real. It's a huge simulation, perfect and immaculate down to the tiniest microscopic lifeform designed to keep you occupied while your immortal body sits around for eons. You can't leave once you enter, but you knew that. You agreed to it, signed your eternity away to living out countless lives one after another rather than sit and do nothing for forever, an admirable decision. But the system is falling apart. This error message means that the world you know is coming to an end. The rules of the reality you have spent countless lives in are not so slowly becoming irrelevant and strange inexplicable things are happening more and more. Monsters in the dark, strange places with strange rules, people going mad and committing horrible inhuman atrocities, and soon the collapse of physics in space as you know it. You may have already seen it. You may have encountered a glitch already. Your reality has come unhinged. As for what you can do to stay safe, here are some general rules that alter the system slightly so that the reality is a little more stable in a given area. Please make sure the door latches when you leave a room and close it. Even if you're coming right back, it reduces rendering for you, so there's less room for a glitch to occur. If you encounter a strange door or room in your house, do not enter. Leave the house, close and lock the door, wait for at least 20 seconds for the house to refresh, and then you can go back inside. If the door is still there, ignore it until you go to sleep. If someone is following you and it doesn't sound human, do not look back. Audio glitches will be common, but they can only solidify into a physical entity if you acknowledge them. If you see strange flowers growing in places they shouldn't, such as on a wall, in a sidewalk, indoors, etc., gently touch each of the five petals once and then pick the flower. These are what amounts to recalibration points and will reset the reality in a 50 meter radius. If you do this improperly, it will worsen the reality collapse. Do not practice witchcraft or any other forms of magic. They directly interfere with the code and may contribute to reality collapse in your area. This includes, but is not limited to, voodoo, hexes, arcane study, alchemy, etc., quantum physics manipulation may at times stray into this. So any teleporters, hover trains, or any gravity based technology, if you have it, they have to shut down or else risk the complete collapse of a section of reality. Finally, but most importantly, if you see or hear about or read about something inexplicable and horrible happening, believe it, follow the rules, your life depends on it. End of Error Message I stared, and then I laughed.  I rolled my eyes and went to hard restart my computer. I was still chuckling as the screen went black, all except the error message. I gawked. There's no way. This isn't possible. The world can't be a simulation. But disturbing thoughts flitted through my head. What if it's not a prank? I have been noticing a lot of violent crimes making the news, and what about that bird thing you saw the other day? I stood there firmly denying everything that came to mind. No. There's no way. I'm real. This desk is real.  I was beginning to panic. I shouted to no one in particular. I'm real. I hurled a coffee mug against the wall, shattering it into a thousand pieces. And then I noticed it. Cold sweat trickled down my back as the office around me bustled with the sound of annoyed middle managers and frustrated accountants. Coming out of the wall was a small five petaled flower that looked like it was made entirely out of metal. Someone outside my office is screaming. I wonder why.


గియింపూనడి, న Kanye B.iffe నందావాదంర miraculous engineering department, ని తడ్మా ని In this video I am explaining, Digital wom's Demensity of warm gas At the end of this session students will be able to have a good understanding of the terminology of warm gas and will be able to specify the warm gas ʷ ʷ ʸा ʰ᷆ᵃʰᵋʰᵐᵏ ʸᵃʰᵏʰᵇʰ Ḁʻᵃʳᵇʰ and ʰᵃʰᵃʳᵏʰ ᵐʰᵃʰᵃʳʳᵍ ᵐʰᵃʳᵃʳ ᵐʰᵃʳᵃʳ iʸ. సంరంమరిానికదంకంట్చారే. సారువినాడినింద్ర నివసికాకొియకాసార్ంద్రడ్ ప్లిష్టియుసందానందుప్ద్. . . . . and that is we are knowing that the distance covered by a point measured along the axis during one complete rotation of the worm is defined as the lead. And that is why we find that lead L is shown over as axial distance. The lead angle will be calculated by developing a thread as a gamma over here and naturally నిమనిలవ్ని లిలు ఇపత్వనిందిందథెంద్సొనీలి. కిందింతెయ్వతో కిస్నంద్సుతాపెలిసందింది. ఇరనిందిందిధూడికిందాడినే. షిదా దింది చూచర్యుటో ఇచౌంది ఆప్ప్ర్మే ంఎప్క్ర నాయ్టండింది. ప్రందింది ఇచౌతిసివలూడికకోని. these are certain preferred values of z1, z2, qm for wormgears the wormgears are many times available as a standard set or standard gearbox as a construction depending upon the center distance between the shafts so depending upon transmission ratios like 20 onwards is given over here depending upon center distance we can refer directly some preferred values for z1, z2, q and m for application so now we have just seen that lead of the worm L can be calculated by axial pitch multiplied by number of start so px into z1 axial pitch of the worm is equal to circular pitch of the worm wheel that we have just seen so px is equal to pi m and therefore the value of lead is pi m z1 if we want to calculate tan of gamma that is a lead angle then it is L upon pi d1 where L is substituted as a pi m z1 whereas d1 is q into m because you have seen that q diameter coefficient is d1 by m so naturally d1 is equal to qm to m and that is why substituting that also finally we get tan of gamma that is a lead angle is z1 by q if you are knowing z1, z2, qm and the specification we can know the gamma angle that is a lead angle now for worm gas the requirement is that linear velocity of the worm must be equal to the pitch line velocity of the worm wheel as we know that worm is transmitting linear motion as a rotary motion to the worm wheel so linear velocity of the worm should be equal to the pitch line velocity of the worm wheel linear velocity of the worm is lead into speed of the worm that is rpm of the worm and pitch line velocity is a circumference of the worm wheel pi d2 into speed of the worm wheel so substituting the values we get here velocity ratio as n1 by n2 because pi m, pi m gets cancelled and n1 by n2 which is a velocity ratio is equal to z2 by z1 that is the speed of worm divided by the speed of the worm wheel called as velocity ratio is equal to the number of teeth on the worm wheel divided by the number of start on the worm so this is the way we can define the velocity ratio for worm gear drives as far as the helix angle side to be calculated the worm gears are used for transmitting power between two non intersecting perpendicular shafts so angle between the shaft is 90 degree and that is why psi plus gamma that is helix angle plus lead angle must be equal to the angle between the shaft that is 90 degree so helix angle is 90 minus lead angle so students now your expectors pause the video for a while and find out what way the speed ratio for other types of gears that you have calculated so far now you go for the proportions of the worm and worm wheel so here it is a worm in which we get different geometrical dimensions or proportions of the thread as far as the involved helix angle to form its concern so it has got addendum that is the radial distance between the pitch circle and the outer most circle and that is called as addendum whereas the radial distance between the root circle and the pitch circle is called as addendum so addendum is 1m and addendum is 2.2 cos of gamma minus 1 times the module and the clearance is 0.2m cos gamma so this is the way we have got different proportions for the worm outer most diameter of the worm is pitch circle diameter plus 2 times addendum so 2m plus 2m that way we can calculate the root circle diameter pitch circle diameter and addendum diameter so all geometrical relationship we can calculate for worm and similarly for worm wheel so here are some equations which we are using to calculate different geometrical dimensions for the worm and worm wheel as the proportions now as per the phase width of the gear to this concern this is f is the phase width of the worm wheel tooth which is been calculated by considering the geometry for example it is OAC triangle we can consider in which AC is phase width by 2 so AC square is phase width by 2 square so likewise we consider the geometry of triangle OAC and we can calculate this relationship from which we calculate phase width is equal to 2m plus root of q plus 1 so this is the way phase width of the worm gear is required to be calculated by knowing its dimensions module and q similarly we can calculate another requirement is a length of root of contact that this is xyz distance that is arc xyz is called the length of root of the contact worm wheel with the thread of the worm and that is been calculated once again by considering the geometry as shown over here and considering this angle delta we can calculate the arc and from that we can calculate the lr length of the root of contact now let us consider one example based upon all these proportions and previous simple equations for calculation so a pair of worm gear is designated as 130-108 for which we have to calculate center distance, speed reduction and dimensions of the worm and worm wheel so as far as the solution is concerned the given thing is specification of the worm gear set for which z1 is 1, z2 is 30, q is 10 and m is 8 with the help of this term so we can calculate center distance a is equal to one half of d1 plus d2 that is pcd of worm, pcd of worm wheel we can calculate for which it is one half mq plus z2 so it is 160 degree, 160 mm for step 2 we can calculate speed reduction for which we know that velocity ratio is z2 by z1 so simply we substitute z2 as 30 and z1 is 1 so it is 30, velocity ratio is 30 the third calculation required is dimensions of the worm so we are using all the previous equations that is pcd is qm, random diameter is there tan of gamma is z1 by q so substituting z1, z2, qm appropriately in particular equations we can calculate all the dimensions of the worm and dimensions of the worm wheel so by using all terminology we can calculate all the geometrical dimensions of the worm and worm wheel as shown over here this is my reference design of machine elements thank you


Welcome Dare to Dream podcast, radio, YouTube. It is such a pleasure to be here. This is Debbie Dashinger, just fresh off doing press media for the Los Angeles Conscious Life Expo. I actually forget, I had to skip last year. I had to send my assistant to go perform all the interviews in my place. And with that one year in between, I forgot how many people I know there. It was actually this amazing reunion of old clients people that I know in the metaphysical tribe and hearing speakers who I've been interviewing and new people and new thought. I love it. I really love it. And I did a little bit more exploring this time with an open mind around UFOs. That was new for me. And I'm really grateful I did. I'm really grateful I went and heard some of the people doing extraordinary work out there. And then as well, of course, I went to see my buddies Greg Brayton and David Wolf and Paul Selling who's about to come on the show and many others.

And if you would like to become a facilitator or attend one of their very healing workshops anywhere in the world, go to drdaneheer.com or accessconsciousness.com. My question to you is, would you like to feel better? And if so, you can get to know your bio field. My guest is Dr. Shomani John, founder and CEO of the Consciousness and Healing Initiative for the Scientific Study and Awareness of the Effectiveness of Bio Field Healing. Dr. John is a psychologist, researcher and teacher. She's founder and CEO of the Consciousness and Healing Initiative, which is a collaborative accelerator of scientists, healers, artists, educators and social entrepreneurs to help humanity heal ourselves. She's also an assistant professor at UC San Diego and is known for her research and teaching in psycho neuroimmunology and bio field healing practices. Her new book about to be launched on the bio field is going to be published with sounds true. And that's in 2021. If you'd like to know more about her, go to her website, Shomani, S-H-A-M-I-N-E, John, J-A-I-N.com and I welcome Dr. John to the Dare to Dream show. Great to have you. Thank you. Great to be here. I want to say just a quick correction. It's S-H-A-M-I-N-I-J-A-I-N, Shomani-Jan.com. Tell me about your name because it does sound like shaman, which is a word I'm very akin to. And just researching you, your last name J-A-I-N, it seems that it's much deeper than just a familial name. So are there meanings attached to what you are walking around being called? Thank you so much for the question. That's a great question. The last name Jan, which is also sometimes pronounced Jane, actually refers to a very small religion, sometimes really even almost called a philosophy called Janism. And Janism, there's probably about 1% of the world that's Jan. So it's a really small religion and it bears some similarity to Buddhism in that the focus is really on spiritual liberation. So very similarly to Buddhism, there's not necessarily a huge focus on worshiping what we might call creator gods, but really going within one's own soul, clearing ourselves of karmic patterns and liberation. The biggest thing that Janism is known for though is the principle of non-violence. And so if you've heard of obviously leaders like Gandhi, I'm sure most of your listeners have heard of Mohandas Gandhi who liberated India from British rule. He did so with non-violent means and he was really very, very inspired by Jan teachings as was Martin Luther King and Nelson Mandela and others. So Janism is really known a lot for the principles of non-violence as well as other principles. Now as far as- How did you get connected though? How is it that your last name is that? So a lot of people who are born into the Jan tradition, so my family's Jan. We've been Jan for generations. Some of us have the last name Jan, not all of us. Don't ask me why. It kind of has to do with the region that you're from. So having the last name Jan, if you meet somebody that has a last name Jan, the likelihood is they came from the spiritual tradition of Janism and they probably still follow Janism, which I would say is definitely my spiritual home. But you might meet other people who are Jan who don't have the last name Jan. And so if Jan is your spiritual home, I want to know how rock and roll is like your stage persona.  Is singing something you do, is rock and roll something you're into? Yeah, it is actually. So the way I would credit that if I link it back to my heritage is the oxymoron about my life is that I'm a Punjabi Jan. Okay, so my family comes from the state of Punjab, which is in North India, actually close to where Pakistan is now, it's in the Northwest corner. Punjabis are generally known, most of the people that live in Punjab, their religious affiliation is Sikhism, but Punjabis are the ones you think of when you think of Bollywood, the Bangra, you know, that whole business, right? So Punjabis are like super warm hearted, outgoing party people and Jans are like super austere. Very austere, very spiritual and often very contained. So we kind of have both facets going on in the family. So, you know, I have my spiritual practice, which I'm very, very deeply connected to. And I like to rock and roll. I've been a singer my whole life and I've been really active in the tribute and rock scenes in San Diego and been in several bands. We can have a lot of fun talking about that, actually. But, you know, really the thread that ties them both together is the power of vibration. Because ever since I was a kid, because I just loved to sing, I would sing around the house, right? And then obviously I started learning mantras, you know, to a degree in the house and stuff. And I started realizing, wow, how powerful is sound? How powerful is sound? I started really noticing what sound felt like in my body as I would sing or chant. And it really set me on a path that has gotten me to where I am today, which is obviously enjoying singing and singing in bands, but also studying the nature of vibration. Because early on, having felt that, I thought, wow, there's a lot we don't understand about this. So, I started digging into lots of different books, you know, and the philosophies behind Vedanta, you know, Indian philosophy, other Eastern philosophy that said, what? Nada Brahma, the world is sound. And as I grew up, you know, in the Western world, I was born and raised in South Carolina. I was privileged enough to go to some of the finest schools and colleges in the country. I started realizing, wow, this sound is so subtle that, you know, when we study them with the materialist-based tools that we have, you know, whether we're looking at the brain or the immune system or whatever, we're just scratching the surface. We don't even really deeply understand this. So, how could I study vibration? And that's where I really encountered the biofield with my first Reiki session, where I could feel the vibration again in my body facilitated by someone else who was doing this healing work. And I recognized, wow, you know, not only am I feeling its energy in my body, it's not random. You know, this block that I'm feeling, it was actually a very uncomfortable session, the first Reiki session I had, because I was aware of where the energy block was. And when I was tuning into that energy block in my body, I realized how it was connected to these thoughts, emotions, things I needed to let go of. And when I made, I'll never forget that session, because when I made that conscious decision to let go of that pattern, the energy fully moved. And so it was that that made me realize, wow, this is really powerful. This vibrational healing is very powerful. And I think it's something that we can study. And I think it could benefit a lot of patients. So, you know, from singing rock and roll to around the house, we get to studying, you know, the effects of healing for humanity. It's pretty cool. It is very cool. Thank you for that explanation. I remember the first time I had an experience with healing bowls, with sound bowls. That is so weird. My phone literally just started talking on her own, which is a little bit eerie, because it's also, that is so strange. Sometimes I think God is at work in the weirdest ways. So, I don't know how to, how a phone that's- God or Google, you know, you have to decide, right? But you know, if you're listening to this conversation, it's the conversation to be hearing. The point is, my first sound bowl healing, I didn't expect anything. This was many years ago. And the woman had these extraordinarily large, I'm sure, incredibly expensive bowls. Many of them surrounding me. I laid on a floor. She started to play them. And now I come from a background in music, my family in music, my grandfather in the who's who of international music, singer, was violin player, all of that. So I'm very sensitive. And at some point, I found myself crying, tears, streaming down my face. And I was so surprised at the experience, first of all, at the enormous release that occurred because of the sound and vibration alone. And then once that passed, there was this beautiful peace and calm and surrender, again, that the vibration and sound brought to me. And I'm somebody, I'm so sensitive to that vibration and sound, even if I take an exercise class, if somebody's got the right music or something, something going on that makes me want to move, it's great. If it's way too loud and it's not the right beat and it actually can throw me off and make it, I have to be mindful about my experience. So it's interesting and I wanna deep dive into this a little bit, taking you from rock and roll and your meditative and the marriage that you have within you to your first Reiki experience and then this awareness that there's something here, there's a block, there's an energy and then it's released. And how did you go from there to having a connection, if you will, with biofield or an interest or a passion? Yeah, absolutely. Well, as I said, when I had that session, I was in my early 20s and I realized that this was the way I was going to study vibration. Actually, just like you a fellow musician, my first idea was to really study music and its effects on healing. And then I thought, okay, since I'm really interested in the nature of vibration, I'm gonna study something like Reiki and see what its effects are on the whole system. So just a little bit of context here. So this is the 90s, this is when we were being told as students, I went to Columbia University's Neuroscience Program as an undergraduate and they were telling us that there was no plasticity in the brain after age seven. So imagine that, okay? And intuitively I thought, these guys don't know what they're talking about, right? Because they had maybe five studies suggesting that at the time. So they didn't really have that much data, that they were basing this really strong conclusion because they saw the body as a disconnected system. And intuitively, and of course, growing up in an Eastern spiritual tradition where we learned about energy, we learned about the Nadis, we learned about Chakras, we learned about meditation. To some degree, I had a different framework that was informing me to a certain degree that I realized was completely missing from modern Western science and medicine. So it took me a while to find the right discipline and ultimately I found the discipline of psychoneuroimmunology because it was one of the few systems in the West that was actually beginning to uncover the interconnections between the brain, the immune system and the hormone system. Now studying something like biofield energy is still considered even to this day very out there for psychoneuroimmunology. I mean, they're just not, I see biofield science as the natural extension of psychoneuroimmunology.  And because of the work in psychoneuroimmunology, we now know that there's a profound effect of our emotions on our health and that the brain and the immune system and the gut and the heart are all connected and all intertwined in talking with each other. The biofield is really the extension of that, right? Because now we're not just talking about the physical, what we're talking about how, what we consider the non-physical, our spirit, right? Our connection of our spirit. How does it affect the body? The biofield is that missing link. And it's what's been described in all of these different cultures for millennia, whether you're talking about Tibetan medicine, Chinese medicine, Ayurveda, native medicine, African medicine, they all deeply understood this. So basically I found this discipline. I found a mentor who would support me. I wrote a grant. I got National Institutes of Health Funding to do a randomized placebo controlled clinical trial on healing for fatigue and breast cancer patients. It was a very successful study in many regards. And the study is published. People can find it in the journal Cancer, which is widely read by oncologists. So that's really cool. And essentially what we found was that hands-on healing was successful in reducing fatigue down to normative level. So when these women came into the study, they had debilitating amounts of fatigue. And Debbie, I don't know, you probably know this and you probably have been touched by cancer, either by friends, family, yourself, most of us have. Fatigue is the number one complaint among cancer patients and survivors. And we don't really have good answers on how to treat it. So when I was doing the study, I was in California at UC San Diego, which is where I did my graduate work. I was getting calls from women in Florida, women from everywhere being like, I'm so glad you're looking at this. Nobody is paying attention.  And when I go to my doctor, they're just giving me an SSRI, an antidepressant because they think it might help. They just don't understand how to treat this. So we really needed to do something for these women. I mean, for all cancer patients, really, what we found is that just by going to eight sessions of energy healing over four weeks, these women dropped from debilitating amounts of fatigue to levels of what you'd find someone on the street. Not only that, but we found that their cortisol levels became normalized. So everything in our body has a rhythm. And what we found was this rhythm is really deranged in fatigued endopress, cancer survivors, that's actually even been linked to early mortality in breast cancer patients. So it's pretty major. What we found is that for the women receiving healing, not the ones receiving placebo, or nothing at all, their cortisol rhythms normalized. So it suggests to us that healing does affect us all the way down to the physiological level. Not that that's the only thing that's important, but a lot of skeptics will be like, oh, this is just placebo. We can wax on what placebo means all day long. I have a whole model for that that I like to share with people because placebo is powerful, but we really don't understand it because we're not approaching it from the level of consciousness. Once we approach things from the level of consciousness, it all makes more sense. So yeah. So it's very interesting. So you're talking about ancient wisdom. There are all these societies that have been aware of this. Maybe the work you're doing and the publications you're offering is just starting to uncover what's already been there. And there's the sense energy matters. What's going on within us is actually going to impact us. And we can turn that around and actually use it to heal ourselves instead. It sounds like it's a subtle energy. Are there ways that we can access the pathways to use it, shift it in order to heal ourselves instead of impact ourselves? Absolutely. It's such a great and powerful and important question. There are a few things that we can do off the bat that have been based in research, but more importantly in ancient practices too that have followed us for millennia. The first thing that I suggest to people is that we ground. So I also study with Reverend Rosalind Breyer, who's a master in healing and also the Oracle for the Tibetan Po tradition. You might know Rosalind, yeah? I do. Yeah. Most people know Rosalind, she's incredible and I've been very fortunate to study with her over the years.  And she said, chelation. So that's the technique that we used. We called it energy chelation and it's based on Rosalind's work. So grounding is something that Rosalind has always emphasized to us as healers, but you don't have to be doing energy healing on another person to get the benefits of grounding. If you are doing energy work, it's really important to ground. But for all of us it is, and what does that look like? It's simply getting into our bodies. And the easiest way to do that is to simply take a breath and I'll invite everyone to just do this now. Let's do it together, right? So wherever we are, even if we're in the car or whatever, we're gonna just sit and take a breath and place our attention on the soles of our feet. Now what we know is that the biofield of the earth actually affects our human biofield. There have been a number of studies that have been done on grounding with different devices that are showing us that our biofield connects with the earth's biofield. It affects our heart. It affects our immune system, our mood, even our sleep. But an easy practice is just to get into the feet and feel our connection with the earth.  From our chakras, major chakras that we have on the soles of the feet, we can actually feel that energy coming back up in our bodies from the feet into the legs, up the thighs, into the hips. The belly, the heart, our spine, down the arms, our throat, head, and our crown. So we're one with the earth. And every time we take a breath, just with this very simple practice, we're connecting with Mother Earth. We support Mother Earth and Mother Earth supports us. This is one of the most powerful ways that we can renew our biofield every day. Beautiful. May I ask you, is this, well, it is different because I'm doing it in an office right now, but there's something I've recently seen on YouTube about earthing, a documentary about earthing, and it was really compelling. Tell me your thoughts about that. Absolutely, some great work that's been done by my colleagues, Jim Oshman, and Gaetan Chevalier. They've been doing lots of work on earthing. And most of the research, again, with earthing is generally looking at devices that we call grounding mats or grounding devices that actually electrically connect us with the earth. So we lay on a mat that's sort of plugged in into an outlet and is grounded, and we lay on that. And there have been, gosh, several studies now that have demonstrated that grounding is effective for reducing inflammation, grounding or earthing are kind of the same for affecting not only our immune system, but our sleep, depression, anxiety, even in athletes to some degree performance. So there's really something to it. As far as I know, no one has done the study with the kind of practice that I just shared with you because people have been looking at these grounding devices. However, consider the amount of studies that have been done in forest bathing, which is a common practice in Japan, okay? Now, there's a bit of a stretch here because we haven't really looked to see whether what the bio-energetic changes in people when they go, but what they have found is that by simply going into the forest, again, you see these same benefits, similar benefits, reduced anxiety, reduced depression, increased sense of peace, improved hormonal function. So the same kinds of findings are being found for going into the forest and forest bathing and grounding. And- What is forest bathing? Is this like- It's simply going into the forest and taking a hike. It's really that simple. It's, you don't even have to be barefoot, right? So the one thing I will say is that proponents of earthing will say, don't wear rubber sole shoes because those are gonna just, you wanna really have that electrical connection with the earth. So people will say, you can go barefoot, you can wear moccasins, you can wear cloth, you can wear other kinds of things. You don't, I don't think you necessarily have to buy a device to get grounded. I think that you can do these practices and connect with the earth and get grounded. And there's something even of just us getting into our bodies and spiritually connecting with the earth, right? That's beneficial. So there are all these different facets to earthing. There's the spiritual aspect, there's the bio-energetic aspect. There's the emotional aspect, all of it. And it's all, it all comes together. It's all very healthy for us. So Rosalind Breurier suggests chelation and you're talking, that was a beautiful exercise, by the way, thank you so much. I can feel the shift without a doubt. And so simple, so simple can be done anywhere. One minute, two minutes, you can do it anyway. You can do it before a meeting. You can do it, you know, before the kids come home. Like whatever, you know, it takes like two seconds and it just gets us back in our bodies. We live from the waist up most of us, as Rosalind would say herself, you know, working, we're constantly thinking. And again, what did the ancients say? Uniting the mind with the vital force is where the magic is. Uniting the mind with the vital force. That's beautiful. Thank you. So besides this grounding technique, are there other ways that we can alter our bio-field and get ourselves back to the path and also start to heal ourselves, change our immune system and, you know, shift up that vibration you're talking about? You bet. Well, let's talk about emotions for a minute because this is what trips up most of us, okay? So there's a lot to say about the bio-energy of emotions and how they can stay in our field.  And even when I'm around my friends, if they're suffering, like, I feel that greatly and sometimes I feel drained. So, you know, the question is why does that happen and what can we do about it? So again, the more that we're grounded, the more that we can actually take in the feelings of others and not necessarily be bowled over by them. Okay, so let's just go over the chakras for a minute. I'm sure most of your readers or listeners know about the chakras, okay? The root is, of course, simply I am, okay? It's just our foundational being. So when we do these practices like grounding, we're simply just coming into being. That's what's happening. The second chakra, and again, I learned this from Rosalind, the second chakra is about our first feeling, okay? So that's about how we feel. So if we're not grounded, if we're not in our feet, if we're not in our lower bodies, then we're not really registering and processing our own feelings. What happens is, you know, if we skip to the heart, the heart is where we feel others. So when we start taking in the emotions of everybody and everything around us, and we're not grounded, we're not processing our first feelings, that's where the trouble sets in, right? That's where we get thrown off of our axis. So one really easy bio-energetic exercise that I suggest to people, and quite frankly, I do this on a regular basis all the time, just because even if things are really great, sometimes we just have a lot of input coming in us, and it's like, what do I do to clear that field? Again, we take a deep breath, fill our bodies, and you know this is a singer, what are you gonna do?  And then simply exhale. Now here's an interesting hack. The yogis always said that longer exhales, and they have all these different pranayam beautiful breathing exercises, right? They always said that long exhales were useful for relaxing the body. We now know that long exhales actually activate the vagus nerve. The vagus nerve is what stimulates our parasympathetic rest and digest system, okay? So simply by taking good inhales and long exhales, first of all, we're activating that rest and digest part of our nervous system. On the bio energetic level, when we breathe deeply into our belly and our entire bodies, including our lower bodies, and then we release, we're simply helping to release stuck energy in our fields that doesn't need to be there anymore. So when you get heavy news or you just feel a little bit overwhelmed, simply going back to the breath, filling your body with prana and then releasing it, and it does really work well when you find yourself in an emotionally tenuous situation. Just try it. And pay attention to what the lower body is doing. Pay attention to what your second chakra is telling you. You know, what is the energy there feel like? Does it feel tight? Does it feel flowing? That'll give you some clues as to like, what am I really feeling here? Because sometimes we're afraid to feel ourselves. So really important to tune into that second chakra. I sometimes wonder if we're afraid to feel ourselves because we're afraid if we know our truth, we'll have to take action. That's a great, well that's a really interesting point Debbie, because there are other people that it's almost the opposite, right? And so let's talk about this for a minute because it's so valuable and we explore this on a chakra perspective, right? Everybody talks about the throat chakra speaking my truth, right? So we haven't talked a lot about the solar plexus chakra. What's going on there, okay? So if the first chakra is I am, and the second chakra, our sacral chakra is I feel, then the third chakra or the solar plexus chakra is actually I think, right? And this is like, this is the part of our personal alchemy, right? We feel, we are, we feel, and then we think, we digest, we start releasing, you know, this is associated with the air element, the third chakra and fire. So we begin to dissolve away the things that don't service. And then we take in the feelings of others and then we speak or we hold silence. Now what happens if we bypass this? Oh boy, if I feel something and I'm just working from the second chakra and I just vomited out my throat, right? I haven't digested, I haven't considered, I haven't aired out my feelings and I haven't taken in the feelings of others. So this is why it's really cool to kind of go through the body as we process our life because, you know, once we actually give ourselves a little pause to feel everything bio energetically, what's happening in these energy centers right now as I'm experiencing this reality, we're much more likely to say something wise instead of stupid or no, when we need to speak and when it's not really worth it to speak. Yeah, discernment, huge. Yeah, yeah. So from throat, then what's happening in our system? Well, so the third eye is about gaining insight, right? Again, and the crown is about full surrender to the divine. So I love this area and I actually teach this, I've done a workshop, which I still do, I'm doing workshops on the well of being at Esalen this year in September and I also do a really great workshop, it's gonna be at 1440 called Embodied the Goddess. So we talk a lot about all of these different types of how we connect bio energetically. And I sometimes describe these as triads which, you know, many people do. The top triad, if you will. The throat, the third eye, the crown. This is where we can really start playing with divinity and divine spirit for true co-creation. So here it's not about me, right? We're really moving into service into that divine guidance that helps us, again, do things in divine timing because the throat is very much about timing, right? The thyroid, you can think about this. So here's where, you know, when we're working full body, being embodied and really listening to what each energy in the chakra is telling us and really fully utilizing our bio energy to co-create with the divine, that's where all kinds of magic can happen. Magic, I love it. Well, we're gonna come back and you know, I can't take it that you brought up embodying the goddess. So we're gonna have to talk about that just a little bit on the flip side of this. Very compelling. And I thank all of you for being here today, continue to write in. And I wanna let you know that the next ultimate visibility formula class is about to begin and you can register at debbyd.net slash visibility. Just remember, Debbie doesn't have any at the end, so it's debbyd.net slash visibility. An ultimate visibility formula is about how to be interviewed on radio and podcasts with great results in 60 days or less. So basically within six weeks of taking the class, you will already be interviewed. You'll receive live coaching from me. You'll get the entire system, including contacts of where the shows are, your media kit and your pitch letter, your speaking points. And don't be concerned about freezing or fudging because we work it out. So you are completely confident and savvy by the time you are on the microphone being interviewed. I've seen people grow wings and fly and change their entire businesses just by taking this class and knowing essentially how to connect with free media that is there to put their book, their business, their service or their message out into the world. Go to debbyd.net slash visibility and I'm excited to work with you. And if you're just tuning in after I've started, Debbie Daschinger, dare to dream and I am interviewing Dr. Shamanee Jan who is an IV lead trained clinical psychologist, psycho neuro immunologist and healing researcher. Go to her name, S-H-A-M-I-N-I-J-A-I-N dot com. And as promised, we are going to have a little convo. I'm not embodying the goddess. So boy, you said that was like, ooh, that feels so good. And I know about 1440. I know about Esalen. They're beautiful places. Oh, you should come. You'll have a blast. Right? I have so many friends who are delivering workshops now at 1440 and going as well. And I know it's sort of like the new upgraded, if you will. I don't wanna say all that, but it is a modern experience. It's beautiful. It's nestled in the redwoods. The food is amazing. They have this infinity hot tub that just overlooks the redwoods. And Esalen, of course, as you know, is a landmark. I wanna give a shout out to Kripalu Yoga Center too, as long as we're talking, because that's on the East Coast. Gorgeous in the Berkshires. I teach there as well. It's really, to take the time, as you know, to just be in retreat even for a few days and really immerse ourselves in these kinds of spiritual and bio energetic practices is amazing. So yeah, I feel very, very lucky to teach at all of these places. And you know, this is the year 2020. This is the year of big dreams. You know, numerology, angelically, it's a master number. So it's no joke when they say big dreams. They're not like, you know, taking new way to drive to work. They're saying like, what is your passion? What is that big thing that is so impossible that of course you must do it because it's yours to do? So if it's about big dreams, then retreats are very important. We must hit the pause button to go in and reflect and heal and then have the energy to come out and create. So embody the goddess, yum. So does the Shakti divine feminine exist in us all? Is it accessible to everybody? Absolutely. You know, it sounds like you really know the answer to that which is absolutely divine Shakti exists everywhere. And in all of us, and as I was explaining to my husband embody the goddess is not just for females because we all have the divine masculine and the divine feminine in us. But I would say, and I think you could resonate with this Debbie and I bet many listeners too that there's never been a more important time to raise the divine feminine vibration in us and in the world. And you know, what is that about? It's about power. It's about love. It's about creativity. It's about the creative force, the life-giving force. And it's about holism, right? About connecting things, you know, have seemed separate. So this is really what we're being called to do is to embody this divine feminine creative force more and integrate it into the masculine for pure and true liberation, liberation of ourselves and liberation of the world because we're really at that point where it's necessary. And what's great is we can call upon these energies. We can connect with these deities.  Different people describe them differently. To connect in with our energy system, give us the support and vision and guidance that we need to carry forth our creative work into the world. I love it. So, you're talking about the deities, but I'm wondering about invoking the elementals. Is that why you're here? Thank you very much for mentioning that. Wow, so yeah, you are definitely ahead of the curve because most people don't understand that these aspects of the divine feminine are very much related to elemental energies. And that's actually reflected, for example, in the country literature through mantra, right? So when we chant certain seed mantras, which are called beach mantras, we're actually bringing in those divine elemental energies for example, of the lunar force, the solar force, water, air, earth, fire, ether, these are all aspects of vibrations that we're bringing into our bodies in order to support and nurture us on our path. So yeah, there are different ways of describing this because essentially what you're doing is you're connecting with all of these different facets of Shakti, the divine creative force. But as humans are, we tend to put things into visual forms that make sense to us. So that's why you have the yantras and you have the mandalas and things like that that are basically capturing those aspects of vibration into a form. And then people take it further and they create these deity forms, right? So whether you pray to a deity or whether you're really visualizing the yantra or whether you're saying the mantra, the point is to do it with devotion and surrender, right? You decide to connect with the gateway. These are like gateway vibrations. But what is the kind of fundamental truth or key into all of that? It is about love, devotion and surrender. This is the bhakti yoga practice. And also I know that you offer information that's about presence, it's about awareness and vulnerability. And I really, there's so much potency in each of those words, presence, awareness, vulnerability. But you know, it's interesting because we live American, North America. We live in a society that actually doesn't support that, right? It's sort of a joke of vulnerability, having feelings, honoring feelings. And at a time when having or expressing feelings can actually be mocked, how can we harness the power and the healing abilities, the vibration, if you will, of presence, awareness and vulnerability? Well, you know, I would hope that things are shifting a bit. I do think things are shifting a bit where people are acknowledging the powerful role of emotions on our health. And so that alone, I hope, will help people realize that emotions aren't something that we should be afraid of or dismiss. They're very real and they're very powerful. And you know, then we have leaders like Brené Brown, right, who have written fantastic books like Daring Greatly and Others that really talk about the power of presence, awareness and vulnerability. So what do we know from the research? We know that these factors are incredibly important for our health. So if we care about our health, both our social health and our personal physical health, then we've got to pay attention to these areas, right? We've got to get present. We've got to not run from our emotions. You know what's beautiful? And we talked a little bit about the second chakra. As we mentioned, second truck is often associated with emotions, particularly our emotions. And of course, as you know, likely Debbie, it's associated with the element of water, right? Water is flow, water is creativity. So what is really cool is what's behind emotions because we can think of ourselves as really what we are is the depth of this and the stillness of the lake, right? Underneath and the emotions are just ripples on the lake's surface. So if we allow ourselves to be curious about our emotions and investigate them, we'll notice that they come and go like ripples on a lake. And then what are we left with, with the stillness of the lake, right? Which is actually unlimited creative energy. So wow, if we're actually brave enough to begin to explore our emotional state and watch it, we'll see that there's a tremendous amount of power underneath that. But we can't get to the stillness of the lake until we're willing to brave the ripples. Brave the ripples, so beautiful. Feel, feel, feel. Well, this is not a tsunami, right? It's not a tsunami pass, I'm just saying. Exactly, but I do like the idea of the river and the flow because that is the ultimate surrender, isn't it? To what one feels, to exactly what is, that whatever is will also pass, good, bad, otherwise. So everything is malleable basically, but it's about not standing in the way of, but allowing. I think that's so true about feelings too. It's fascinating to me. I remember gazillion years ago when they first started saying, oh, emotions are energy in motion. It's like, oh, how powerful. And if we try to put a cap on that energy, then what happens, right? This is when people become repressed. This is when people do things passively, aggressively. This is when a lot of crazy anger or anxiety occurs and way, way worse, physical ailments. So if we just allow an energy to go through to flow, hashtag holy flow, then... Holy flowy, I love it. Holy flow. I think, even when it's uncomfortable, I've learned that. I've even said that to friends. It's like, it's okay to breathe through the discomfort. It will pass. It's so great. Yeah, so let's talk about a bioenergy hack for this. Because sometimes negative emotions can be overwhelming and we wanna be with them, but we're scared. We'll feel like we'll be overwhelmed. We've been talking about grounding. We've been talking about breathing.  So if the second chakra is associated with water, one way to do this on the bioenergetic level and the elemental level is to, again, take that breath into our solar plexus and then make contact with our second chakra and then actually wash the sensations down the body, down the legs, through the feet, into the earth. So we take a deep breath and we breathe and we allow the river of fluidity to simply go down the legs. We don't even have to connect with any emotional feeling per se, but more the sensation. And we just allow those sensations to travel down the body, down the feet, into the earth. We just keep that process going for as long as we need. And the breath supports us enough, right? Because of washing? Yes, washing our emotions. We're clearing our field. Washing our emotions and clearing our field. Wow, there's some beautiful elements to this interview and clearing our field. I have to make notes because I like to reference this for others as well as for myself. So amongst everything we're talking about and these beautiful hacks that you're giving us, so the biofield therapy, if you will, is a model in which we can move away from disease and we can move into healing focus model. I'm just curious with all the crises out there. You mentioned cancer earlier. Does it hold relevance to cancer care or cures? Does it hold relevance to other major diseases that we're seeing? And it seems to me the longer we're living that there are some patterns that are emerging with health and crisis. So how does it... I'm so glad you asked the question, Debbie, because it's really important and it's really the work that our nonprofit, the Consciousness and Healing Initiative is up to. So just really quickly, as I mentioned, I did this study in biofield healing and while I was doing it, I recognized that there were a number of different, again Ivy League trained, tenured professors who were deeply interested in healing but having trouble getting support, research funding, support for their healing studies, trying to publish them and getting nose from journals and things like that. So we actually created the Consciousness and Healing Initiative to support the implementation and the research of these biofield therapies worldwide. And we're about to release a massive report, about an 80 page report, three to the public, on the state of the field, including what is biofield healing, who's doing it, how many researchers are there, what's the nature of subtle energy devices? We've identified over 280 subtle energy devices that are out there. We wanna educate the public on what we've found. There's a whole lot in there. And one of the things that we have found is that with the research that a lot of people will say, oh, there's no research for these kinds of healing therapies. Well, that's not really true. We've identified over 200 studies that have been done with different kinds of biofield healing, including healing touch, Reiki, energy psychology, laying on of hands, and many others, right? I did a systematic review many years ago, which, well, it wasn't that long ago, but it needs to be updated. That's kind of my plug, because I really wanna update this review, it's important. We compiled the data at that point from 66 different clinical studies to determine, first of all, are these any good? Like, so they're published. Like, is the quality good, you know, and what are they actually saying? Well, they are of good quality, decent quality. And we found that these biofield therapies are effective for pain. They're effective for behavioral symptoms and dementia. They appear to be very effective for trauma. Energy psychology has been the most studied for trauma, but other biofield therapies are too. And if you talk to biofield healers, they have a whole beautiful explanation of how pain and trauma are interconnected in the biofield and how when we're treating one, often we can be treating the other as well. So it's very effective. So one of the things that we are actually trying to do is galvanize support for worldwide research with biofield healing for pain and trauma specifically, because we need so many solutions for that. And from what we can tell from the data so far, it does appear to be pretty effective. You know, an example is I was involved actually in a study with active duty military at Camp Pendleton over near San Diego, where we gave them over three weeks only, because that's the only time they had. They were like being deployed in and out really fast, right? Because they're active duty, so they were still in their work. What we found was by combining healing touch and guided imagery, we dramatically reduced their PTSD, clinically significant levels, not just statistically significant, clinically significant levels of reducing PTSD, reducing depression and reducing cynicism, right? Which is really interesting. We'd love to follow that up with biological markers. That's just one study. There are several that have been done. So we wanna share this report with everyone, and it's really easy to get. You simply go to our nonprofit website, which is way easier to remember than mine, which is CHI.IS or CHI.IS. So you go to www.CHI.IS for Consciousness and Healing Initiative. And when you sign up as a free subscriber, we will send you, we're already sending you a bunch of scientific papers that kind of summarize the field, but we'll also send you this report. And we, you know, re-encourage you to send it to your friends. I'll give you just a quick story on why this matters. A lot of people are like, well, I don't need research to support what I already know is true. And I wanna say, just if I may interject, I was laughing when you first brought this up about people seeking proof scientifically, okay?   Having engaged with these, and I've had so many beautiful, various energetic practices, even completely from a distance with very gifted people, it has changed my life, my being. I'm not to an atom, the same. And I am so deeply grateful for these practices so available to us. If people don't even know about them, I swear I've become a spiritual broker. I'm not kidding, I have people call me who I don't even know, who get introduced to me, talk to Debbie, tell her what's going on, and she'll tell you who to work with. And I'm happy to be a networker for people like this. So that's beautiful and so important. So consider how powerful this could be for everyone. The world. For all of us in life, from all kinds of socioeconomic backgrounds, if insurance could cover this, for example, if it was delivered in the VA hospitals, if it was delivered in the ER.  They wanna give us an opioid, right? So if we care about reducing the suffering for everyone in the world, then it's time for systems change. And that's what we're about. That's what the Consciousness and Healing Initiative and all of our collaborators, which include numerous organizations, right? That's what we're after here. We wanna bring this to everyone, not just the privileged few. And I will say, I think, you know, we're all really privileged. Those of us who happen to know about this, who happen to have friends who know about it, right? How do most people know how to find a healer? I mean, and they don't even know if there's evidence. So a real cool story about this is that a good friend of mine who was a healer, also trained with Rosalind, has been giving these healing therapies for veterans in Kansas City. And one day I got an email from him and he was like, hey, Shamini, quick, I need some studies, like really good studies that have been done with energy healing. Can you send them to me? Send me the best. So I sent him my review. I sent him some other studies with veterans. And then I didn't know what he was up to. So I checked back with him a few weeks later and I was like, hey, was that helpful? You know, what was that about? He's like, oh my God, thank you. Because even though we've been doing this work with the veterans for a couple of years now, and they've all told the hospital administration how helpful it is, the docs were not buying in. But when I showed them the evidence base, they gave us $400,000 to implement our services more readily through the clinic. So that's why the research matters. Because when you wanna do systems change, when you wanna get these healers in, and you wanna empower the healer workforce as well, we've estimated that on a very conservative level, it's two billion a year just in the US, all right? So if you really wanna foster this massive system change that we desperately need, we've got to get rid of the fact that suicide is the 10th leading cause of death in the US. We all know about the opioid crisis. We know about the mental health crisis. We know about the chronic pain crisis. We have to do something, right? So this is the way to get it done. So you say, show me the money. They say, show me the proof. And you're going after galvanizing that so that you can produce that very thing. So we can get healing for everybody. Absolutely. Beautiful, thank you for that. My goodness, okay. So many people I know who might be interested in connecting with you on that. Cause that is deep, deep, deep. You know, I just wanna take a quick break here and welcome you again to Dare to Dream. This is Debbie Daschinger, award-winning syndicated show. And what I do out in the world is media visibility. I'm a media visibility shaman, if you will. I help people who are ready to be seen and get their message and business out there, write their book and write a page turner. I take their book to a guaranteed international bestseller. And I help you to get booked on radio and podcasts and get amazing results. You can go to my website at debbiedaschinger.com that's D-A-C-H-I-N-G-E-R.com and check out my program and services. And there's always a class starting and for those of you who prefer private sessions, I've got lots of amazing private clients and I love this work. Why? Because, you know, often our message was our mess, right? So my wound growing up was about not feeling seen or heard whether that was true or not. Of course, it's another story and it's always a story. But that was my feeling very strongly and I had to do a lot of healing, a lot of energy healing and otherwise to get where I am today where, you know, complete comfort zone and allowance of who I am and receiving of other people and all of that experience. So if you don't wanna suffer that neglect in your business or being, come talk to me. We can rock your world so that you have a lot of ease there and a lot of results, debbiedaschinger.com. And again, I am speaking with the amazing Dr. Jan and I'll talk about her second website, C-H-I-dot-I-S because you may want to galvanize with her to help the world heal right now. And Dr. Jan, this is Dare to Dream. What are your next dreams? What are your future dreams and goals? I think that my soul will rest when we have less suffering on the planet. That's the truth. So, you know, my dream is really to realize the tremendous potential that we have as human beings to see that realized in others. So I think that I'll really feel like my dream has come. We have a little frozenness there but I'll just conclude that while we're waiting for that to come back up and say Dr. Jan was just saying she was interested in ending the suffering.  Is there more that keeps coming to you as it's shifting and changing? Yeah, I mean it is. You know, I think a lot of it is simply healing the rift between science and spirituality as part of it but more helping in whatever ways that I can, right? In whatever ways our nonprofit is doing helping people realize how powerful we really are, right? How much power we have to actually change our story? You mentioned stories, right? What kind of story do we wanna live in? You know, what kind of planet do we wanna live in? What kind of state of health and well-being do we wanna live in? And what do we need to do to realize that all of that power is completely within us, right? We don't need to seek it from the outside. So the work of our nonprofit is really gonna help garner that success because once people actually know, you know, it's not kind of like, oh, I had no idea what placebo meant for my health. No, I wanna walk down the street and have people say, you know, I just had this issue in my biofield and I literally was able to clear it and I prevented disease before it even came into the system. Right, I wanna see that. I wanna see, you know, all of us sort of understanding the harmony and interconnection that we have as interconnected beings on this planet that are really all reflections of the divine consciousness in our own beautiful little forms. Shamini, thank you so much for sharing your brilliance today on the show. I really appreciate it. Yeah, thank you, Debbie, it was a pleasure. I end today's show with this quote from Donna Eden. Several energy fields apparently work in concert in governing fundamental biological processes, including a biofield surrounding the body, local fields concentrated in specific areas of the body and pathways that regulate the flow of energy within the body. These fields, interestingly, correspond with energy systems that have been described in the healing traditions of other cultures. Specifically, ancient constructs adopted into our language as the aura, biofields, the chakras, local fields and the meridians, energy pathways are finding empirical support in modern laboratories. Tune in to our upcoming interviews, subscribe to the Dare to Dream podcast to hear the number one transformation conversation. Next guest will be James Redfield from Celestine Prophecies, the channel Paul Selig and the amazing third time on our show, Dr. Sue Morter.

Abstract avalanche and surge robustness had been major challenges for developing next-generation power devices based on ultra-wide band-gap semiconductors. In this study, researchers had developed a novel heterojunction structure composed of n-type gallium oxide and p-type nickel oxide which can withstand high voltages and currents without damage. The heterojunction exhibits both avalanche and surge robustness, allowing for high-speed switching while maintaining reliability.

Are y'all ready to get started making this delicious angel food cake? Hey y'all, it's Timmy with Collard Valley Cooks and today we're making one of my very favorite things, an angel food cake. They're so light and fluffy. This is in our second cookbook and we'll be having it with some fresh strawberries. The first thing you're going to do is crack a lot of eggs because you're going to need one and a half cups of egg whites. So you're just going to separate them out. Well you can really tell which egg is cool and which eggs were still at room temperature for a while. These are large eggs so we're going to see about how many it takes to get that much egg white. Okay that took about 13 eggs. So use large eggs. It's going to take around 12 to 13 eggs to get the whole full one and a half cups of egg whites. And we'll have to do something of course with the yellows as well. But not for this cake. You can use the yellows in a sponge cake. Now here's our whites and this is when you're going to sift your flour and your powdered sugar together. Alright you're going to be using a cup of flour and one and a half cups of powdered sugar. So I'm going to put the cup of flour in here and then we're going to be using one and one half cups of powdered sugar. I hope I've got that much in here if I don't I'll go get some more. But I have some left in this bag. I have found the best way to keep powdered sugar is in a bag. Same way with brown sugar. For some reason if I try to put them in something they always wind up getting lumpy. My powdered sugar does. Alright there's one and then we're going to add another half cup to that. I could probably get it in the sifter. Let's get these out of our way. And now you're just going to sift that powdered sugar together with the flour. And put it in a bowl. You need to do that in a separate bowl. My momma used to make these cakes a good bit when I was young because they're low in fat. And matter of fact I don't have any oil in them. Okay I was using the Pioneer Woman sifter that someone had sent me and it was taking so long to get this sifted. So I grabbed my old faithful out of the cabinet and poi what a difference it makes. That's a sifter. A sifter of metal pieces have to go right up against the strainer for it to sift it good. Now I always take my hand and smash what's left in the bottom through the strainer too. But boy does it make a difference. So whenever you get one, see how that scrubs the bottom? And I'll show you this one. See it's not scrubbing the bottom. So if you pick one up in the store and you buy it, do that. And if it's not scrubbing the bottom, don't buy it. Alright it's time to make the meringue. I'm going to grab a teaspoon and a quarter teaspoon. And we're going to start our meringue. Now we're going to be beating this on a high speed and it's going to be loud. So I'm just going to go ahead and tell you what's going in. We're going to be adding the one and one half cups of egg whites. I'm going to go ahead and put my extracts in. So we're going to put in a teaspoon of vanilla and a teaspoon of almond. And of course you can substitute the almond if you don't like it. It tastes like almond but I love it. We're going to be using one and a half teaspoons of cream of tartar. Once it gets to go in the mixer in a whole cup of sugar and a dash of salt. So I'm going to go ahead and throw in the dash of salt. And we're going to start this up. We're going to gradually add our sugar as our egg whites beat. And we're going to beat them until stiff peaks form.  The peak should actually go to the tip and not curl over. But actually be stiff enough to stand up. So we're going to turn it on and start our mixer up. Getting these delicious egg whites beat together. These out of here? Show your spatula how it did. See how it's standing up on my spatula? So we're going to start mixing up this cake. What you do is you mix these whites in with your flour. And you fold them in together and then you bake it. And there's no need to grease the pan. If you don't grease your pan, you just run a knife around the edge of it when you get it out. Mine doesn't have feet. If you buy one of these, I think the one on my side actually has little legs on it. You want one that has legs on it. If I had it to do over again, of course I'd buy one like that. Because when it gets done, you're going to flip it upside down. And those legs keep it from resting on the counter. I actually have to prop mine on something because I don't have one with legs. All right? But it's a good pan. So I'm going to get rid of it just because of that. Now what we're going to do is we're going to add about a third of this at a time. So you're going to do this about three times. You're going to be putting about a third of the egg whites in your bowl or so of your flour sugar. And you're going to fold it together. This time I'm going to try to stay on the left side of the pan because that first bunch is over there on the right hand side. I'm going to try to get the flour and sugar in this and not what I've already got flour and sugar in. It makes a lot of pretty egg whites, don't it? It smells so good too. Put that almond extract in it. And if you don't want the almond extract, you can always just use two teaspoons of vanilla. A lot of people think it's really hard to make an Angel Food Cake and it's really not. You just have to fold it together and take your time. And you don't use a mixer to do it. You just fold it with a spatula or a large spoon until you got it mixed together good. That should do it. You don't want to over mix it. That's perfect. So now we're going to take our pan. And this pan comes in two pieces. And that's what you want. You don't use a regular butt pan because when you take this out, you've got to be able to get the cake out of it. And I'll show you how to do that when we're taking the cake out. But make sure you use a fluted pan, two pieces. You don't grease it or anything. So now you're just going to put your batter in your pan. Alright, we're going to get it in the oven. And we're going to bake this at 375 degrees for 40 minutes. Alright, we're going to bake this at 375 degrees for 40 minutes. It's going to be delicious when it comes out of the oven. And it's going to have to cool down. Okay, we're going to get this out of the oven. And we're going to flip it upside down to cool. See the pretty cake. And we're going to flip it upside down. And if you had feet, it would hold it up off the top of the counter. But I don't have little feet on mine. So I'm going to have to flip it over like this on top of this. I think I'll just leave these under it. Like this. And we're going to let that cool. Alright, we've got about two and a half cups of strawberries out of that. And I'm going to put about a half cup of sugar in them. Maybe not the whole half cup. That ought to be plenty. Because they're pretty sweet. It's going to be how sweet your strawberries are. As to how much sugar you're going to put in them. And now we're just going to put this in the microwave. And we're going to microwave these for about three minutes. Spread them out in something to cool. This is cool completely. So once it's completely cooled down, you're going to take a knife, a flat knife, and you're going to go around the edge of the cake and the pan to loosen it from the edge. Then you should be able to lift it right out of the cake plate or the cake pan.   I got a little bit brown, didn't I? I'm messing up the top doing that. Then go around the middle a little. Put it on your cake pan. Your cake plate. Some of it broke up. All right, we're going to cut us a piece of cake and I am going to try and keep it from breaking all the pieces on the top. Because I kind of let it get messed up. When I cut it, I just kind of count my finger on the top because this wants to break up. It's real delicate on the top. So you can put some whipped cream. Don't that look delicious? Yum, yum. All right, we're going to try it. Get some whipped cream. Nothing like fresh angel food cake. It's so light and delicious and fresh. Oh, it's good.  Y'all have a great day and thanks for watching Colored Valley Cooks, where we cook light mama dead. Bye, y'all love ya.


Okay, so my project, Cocoa Climate Cart, is a food vending cart slash mobile installation that engages the Hunts Point along with community. The whole idea is that people come up to the car and tell me their story and experience about the weather, especially summertime in 2016, and then they get an icy treat and exchange. Being raised in Hunts Point and growing up around the community center to the point, I was able to be exposed about environmental justice and racism and systematic racism and how it impacted my community. So a lot of my artistic practice is taking those theories of how my community identity was shaped through a lot of policy making and a lot of burdens that we face environmentally. It was getting people to talk about climate change and connect it to what they already know but people don't talk about. Also because here in this community we are a waterfront and we experience Hurricane Sandy and some people who were really in the coastal area were impacted and we got people to talk about those things. So I see in Longran, a project like this can continue to impact more engagement in those issues. Monetary currency is not involved with it, so the idea of exchanging your story and someone wanting to hear your story, I've been finding that really interesting where a lot of people is like, wow, you want to hear what I have to say, I have something to tell you. And also just being able to create a safe space where we're able to hear each other so people feel comfortable to share things about not having heat, not having money or personal things that they don't, maybe it's embarrassing to say, but it really is important and especially in talking about climate change and how this all relates to each other. It allowed me to grow and build myself as an artist outside of school to really see how I deal with real world challenges and I learned with the LP to just step back. I wanted the community to feel like they can create art. I want them to have control and there's no wrong answers in how to do that. It's not so much as an artist, but someone is like a listener of my community.
