Parenting as a Survivor of Childhood Trauma
Can children inherit their parents' trauma via genetics? The scientific community has heavily debated this question, but there's growing evidence that trauma experienced by our parents and grandparents may impact our well-being. As Dr. Thomas Seager explains, it's clear that trauma can be inherited even when the children are not raised by the traumatized parents.

The Only Advice Worth Listening To
The only advice worth listening to is from someone you admire who says, this is what worked for me, and this is what didn't work for me. When someone you admire shares what they did and what they regret doing when they were in a similar situation, that's the advice you want to follow. If you'd like people to think of you as an expert in your field, go to substack for example, and break some rules. Share things that are specifically about you, the experiences you've had, your wins and losses. And they don't have to be all positive; you shouldn't even be proud of some of them. But they should be out there. Why? Because you don't want your kids, your audience, or your students to think that you're perfect. Perfection in life puts pressure on those that admire you because they believe they have to be perfect too. Whatever mistakes you've made, your kids, your students, or your audience should be able to say, thank God he did it instead of me. And they might sit in judgment about what a fool you are because of the things that you screwed up. But that's okay.
Releasing Trauma Through Ice Baths
Trauma is a shock to the body's normal operating system. So when you're faced with a traumatic event, and that shock is stored instead of released, it can cause mental and physical health issues down the road. Interestingly, when trauma occurs, the brain temporarily shuts down your memory processing system. This act is an effort to protect itself, and so the experience is instead stored as fragments in the body.
So how do we get rid of trauma that's stored in the body? According to Dr. Steager, cold exposure is one of the easiest to release trauma from the body. Whether done in a modern cold plunge tub or the middle of a freezing river, dipping your body in icy waters has some serious physical and mental benefits. Inflammation is a big one because most of us live with chronic inflammation without even realizing it. When you immerse yourself in cold water, it instantly numbs the nerves surrounding your joints and muscles. This causes the release of hormones and endorphins that acts as an analgesic, which is responsible for relieving inflammation and alleviating muscle strain and joint pain.

Why are Psychedelics Banned #shorts
FULL CLIP: https://youtu.be/5wcYj-9TBGQ
For decades, we have been taught to just say no to all drugs because they’re harmful. But now that we have greater access to research, it’s easy to debunk the prevalent misconception that all drugs are bad. The prohibition on drugs has little to do with science, as evidenced by the fact that alcohol and tobacco are legal, even though they pose great harm to self and others.

#65 Yasmine Mohammed - Unveiling Islam
Yasmine Mohammed is a Canadian university instructor, human rights activist, author, and founder of a non-profit organization called Free Hearts, Free Minds. She was formerly married to an Al-Qaeda operative and has become an advocate for women’s rights and Muslim women’s rights. She talks about navigating the discourse on being a Muslim woman, wearing the hijab, Shariah countries, and being the voice of girls and women being abused worldwide.

Navigating the Discourse on Islam and Hijabs
The same group of people who advocate against Christian girls part of fundamentalistic cults, but the conversation is different in the Islam context. Having to cover up to go to school and forced marriages are seen in the West as just simply part of their culture. However, women suffer violence and abuse all over the world and not just in the Middle East and regardless of their backgrounds, women and girls have no autonomy over their minds and bodies. Fear looms over them every day and they refuse to let the world know that they are disempowered.
Powerful media propaganda and power behind Shariah countries
There’s plenty of petrol dollars and political power behind Shariah countries and they don’t want the truth to come out. The media is a farce and will say whatever the powerful will ask them to say. Enter social media, where they cannot control what people post and where everyone has the right to speak their mind and trend their own hashtags to create awareness on political events. Iran is a powerful country with the 4th largest oil reserves on the planet and greatly influence even American politics.
Conflicting Ideas in Islam and Catholicism
There are less Christian fundamentalists versus mainstream, nominal Christians. However, the numbers for Muslims are the opposite and are more immersed in their written laws and systems. Yasmine believes that the only way for nations to progress and become more open is zero tolerance on racism, bigotry, and other values that go against basic human rights.
