Another Wednesday Audio delivery!
This is Soul School Lesson 67 (SSL 67)
The human brain is a “soup” of chemicals (the consistency of soft butter) encased in the bone “bowl” of your skull. This gelatinous cocktail needs to stay in balance for optimal mental and bodily health. Today, I’ll talk about serotonin and dopamine and an experiment I’m taking during February that you might want to try too. (scroll down for the AUDIO PLAYER)

SHOW NOTES:
Is it getting harder to be around other humans? Today I explore this phenomenon and what can be done. If you’re an introvert or just someone who’s been using technology more in the last five years, you’ve probably noticed that your in-person interactions take more energy than you would like and might not be as deep. Something has fundamentally changed in our ways of being and being together and there’s a way to encounter each other that we’ve left behind. Have you noticed?
Welcome new listeners. I’m so happy to have you. Creative types and curious listeners…welcome home. Please poke around and get used to the place.
Consider being a patron for special perks and of course, subscribe to the podcast AND the newsletter (I send something out about twice per month).
One more special announcement: I will be interviewing and exuberant and insightful Nicole Unice soon and sharing that with you. She has a new book coming out Brave Enough and we’ll chat about it. Very exciting!
Today’s episode is brought to you by Soul Care for Creators and Communicators
This book offers a new way to see yourself and your calling.
If you are someone who creates and communicates in everyday life, this is a great read you will enjoy!
WINE SEGMENT
Today, I’m answering the big question I’m asked a lot at the Vineyard: how to avoid a red wine headache and why does it really happen.
…and I’m revealing some other facts about wine grapes.
The real reason people get a headache from red wine? Histamines.
They are found in the skins of grapes, can give some people headaches if they are sensitive to histamines. Red wine will affect a histamine sensitive wine drinker more than white wine because red wine has spent more time in contact with grape skins that host the histamines.
Some people think they get headaches because they are allergic to sulfur. Unlikely. But, only 1% of the population has this allergy.
Other facts: A serving of wine has only 80-100 calories
One Case of Wine
=30 pounds of grapes
=48 glasses of wine
=12 bottles of wine[smart_track_player url=”lisadelay.com/blog/2015/05/27/episode-10-wine-headaches-explained-and-interview-with-emily-miller/” social=”true” social_twitter=”true” social_facebook=”true” social_gplus=”true” ]
Sparking your Muse
Today, we welcome journalist, reporter, and writer…
We also chat about why we don’t hear more good news about the church. Her answer is very compelling.
Plus, we talk about her fascinating work with Hope for the First Nations, a nonprofit she founded with some friends right after she graduated high school. They partner with the Anishinaabe people of the White Earth Reservation. At the last board meeting, she was voted in as president!
Please take part in this anonymous 30-second listener-survey so I can continue to fund and produce the show. Once again, thank you so much for listening.
Spark My Muse is now one of the most popular shows in its category on iTunes
(The Society/Culture- Philosophy category! Just like my hero Krista Tippet’s show On Being.)
Most of my blogging and most of my social media activity will be reduced. I’m thinking somewhere around 85% (but maybe more).
If you’d like to contact me, I’ll be checking my email a few times per week. You can use the contact tab.
I’ve already been scaling back. The spirit is moving and I a sense that “permission to not produce” in online formats over these next few warm months is important right now.
I’ve been posting entries 2-3 times a weeks for such a long time. So, it’s weird. It’s like shedding skin, I suppose. The bigger challenge may be reducing my online reading, at this point!
I covet your prayers and I hope you’ll be here when I get back.
And yes, I’ll send up dispatches (once in a while) and I’ll also let you know when things will be rolling here again.
For those of you in the North America, may your enjoy your summer. I plan to and it feels freeing already.
Sure you can check out my Professional Services page to see my capabilities and specials, but I want to do something special for you.
Something amazing.
For the next 2 Weeks, I’m offering Advice for 5¢.
Yep. 5¢.
Why not? It’s the holidays, and it’s a thrill to see new projects and help out.
So, if you need a creative consultation, marketing, fundraising, or social media help, a design critique of your website, a fresh pair of eyes on your project, some ideas or strategies for improvement on your product, service, or business, please let me know!
What problem are you experiencing right now?
This will be fun.
Use the Contact Me button to get in touch. I can’t wait to hear from you.
(You can also leave a comment in the comments section if you’d rather, so I can find you.)
HAPPY THANKSGIVING!
