M. J. Ryan - Attitudes of Gratitude

When we take time to stop and reflect, how do we measure our lives? Do we look at the balance between perceived successes and failures in material gain, careers and relationships? Do we take inventory of that which we think makes us happy and that which makes us sad? Is there satisfaction in either way of taking stock, and is there a deeper, more profound practice to open our hearts and find core happiness?

My guest this week on Destination Unlimited, M. J. Ryan, says there is and it comes in the practice of gratitude. M. J. is one of the creators of The New York Times bestselling Random Acts of Kindness and the author of The Happiness Makeover, How to Survive Change You Didn’t Ask For, and The Power of Patience among other titles. Altogether, there are 1-3/4 million copies of her books in print. She is a contributing editor to Health.com and Good Housekeeping and has appeared on the Today show, CNN, and hundreds of radio programs. She joins me this week to share her just released new edition of Attitudes of Gratitude: How to Give and Receive Joy Every Day of Your Life.

Extreme Importance of Extreme Self-Care

On the heels of the Self-Help movement came the Self-Care trend. While it may seem to be an over-used phrase already, the actual practice of self-care remains under-utilized. If you are feeling frustrated, fatigued, stressed out or anxious, this show is for you! Allow Joyce and Jennifer to show you why you’re hitting so many walls and how to engage in self-care in a way that makes sense to you and motivates you to replace some of your high priority action items on your ever-increasing ‘to do’ list with activities that bring out the best in you. After this show, you’ll understand why doing so can dramatically improve your life.

What the Alt-Right and Alt-Left Both Know - That We ALL Need to Know

A Conversation With Alt-Left Journalist Mark Crispin Miller and Alt-Right Commentator Paul Craig Roberts

“We need more forums, and fewer againstums.” — Swami Beyondananda

Friday … March 6, 1981.

A notable date, and I’m willing to bet no one recognizes it or its significance. I only know it because I looked it up. It was the last broadcast Walter Cronkite made as anchorman on CBS Evening News. It was the last time he would say, “And that’s the way it is…” and have the majority of Americans regardless of which party they favored believe him.

It was the beginning of the end of an era where Americans shared a common narrative, and a commonly-sensed faith in the “goodness” of America, its institutions, and its people. It was before the polarization brought on by the weaponized politics of Newt Gingrich, and the betrayal of America’s working people by neoliberal Democrats. It was 20 years before the 911 attacks that recalled other perpetrations against the American people like the JFK, RFK and MLK assassinations.

It was back there — way, way back in almost ancient history — when “fake news” was called by its real name, “lies”.

A key purpose of Wiki Politiki — quixotic as it may seem — is to bring awakening elements of left and right front-and-center in a conversation to go above and beyond both mainstream news and fabricated disinformation, and to find a likelier story that will help us metabolize the past and move forward as a healed and healthy body politic.

The question isn’t “Can we do it?” but “HOW can we do it?” A common sense consensus of “what’s so … so what … and now what” is REQUIRED for the survival and thrival of our experiment in self-governance.

In the first of what I hope will be many such conversations for possibility, I am bringing together two courageous outside-the-box thinkers, alt left journalist Mark Crispin Miller and alt right commentator Paul Craig Roberts in a conversation for co-creation. What DO the alt left and the alt-right agree is “so”, and how can this become the foundation for a new, truth-based narrative that will heal the disheartenment in the heartland and move us toward the future the vast majority of us desire?

Mark Crispin Miller and Paul Craig Roberts have one significant thing in common: They’ve both held prestigious positions in mainstream journalism and politics. Miller is a communications professor at NYU and wrote a humorous and mainstream book in 2002 called The Bush Dyslexicon. However, two years later his book Fooled Again, provided ample proof that both the 2000 and 2004 elections were stolen by hacked voting machines — and he became less of a mainstream darling.

Paul Craig Roberts served as an Assistant Secretary of the Treasury during the Reagan Administration and was an editor and columnist for the Wall Street Journal. He has been a critic of neo-conservativism and neoliberalism since the Iraq War and has been outspoken in his critique of the official 911 narrative.

In addition to finding out how each of these individuals found the perspective and courage to venture outside the mainstream narratives, we will also discover what common ground they share, AND how we the people can call forth and empower a media we can rely on, and a government that does the bidding of the people, not the bidding of the highest bidder.

The Planets this Week: November 27, 2017

What do the planets have in store for us this week?

Love planet Venus moves into Sagittarius where it will be until December 24th. While Venus is in Sagittarius, and depending on how this influence affects the other planets in your chart, you’ll want your love life to be a great adventure. You need a lot of space and freedom to explore right now, and you actively seek out fun and excitement rather than passively waiting around. Your enthusiasm and adventurous spirit could make you very popular, and you may find yourself socializing with a variety of interesting folks. Curiosity is high, and you’re more open to connecting with different types of people, especially those from foreign countries and cultures.

Also, this week, there’s a dreaded Mercury retrograde. Mercury will be retrograde in Sagittarius until December 22nd and can trigger an onslaught of opinions that would be better left unspoken. The tendency, under this planetary influence, is what is known as ‘inserting one’s foot into one’s mouth.’ You may feel the urgency to express yourself, feeling that your input is badly needed. However, what can result from your high-minded comment is a high-volume response.

Although you may feel the need to address a particular matter, you may in fact, make things worse. Generally speaking, your judgment isn’t quite on the mark. You could be overly optimistic, expecting your listener to embrace all of your views wholeheartedly. You may feel that you have all the right answers while your poor misguided friend doesn’t see the simple solution right before them. Don’t assume that your audience is receptive to your insights.

Tune in on Monday 6pm PT/9pm ET to find out more…
