Mere Mortals Conversations

To supplement or not to supplement, that is the question. In today's Mere Mortal Monday Movement we look at the topic our hand in our last themed podcast discussion. Key to our discussion was the need to treat supplements as what they should be, ehancements of the basic natural levels that us as mere mortals all have and can influence through basic foundations such as sleep, nutrition, fitness and a settled mind.
As always, enjoy.

What's the purpose of supplements, to cover for deficiencies, enhance beyond the norm, or both? In this episode Juan and Kyrin discuss the topic of 'Supplements'. This conversation largely concentrates on supplementation in the fitness world, but touches upon taking supplements for health reasons and the debate of what is 'natural'.
Both Mere Mortals give an account of their own experiences using supplements, with the intriguing adventure of Juan in the Supplement Den and creating Supplement Land. They also explore the safety aspect, quality control and determining intention before finishing off with people who went too far in either direction (taking too much & too little).

JOSH BUSBY is a podcaster living in Omaha, Nebraska. He is the host of the 'Just A Guy Podcast', a comedy podcast where he chats with friends and strangers alike, always with a beer in hand! In this interview we start of with the light stuff; morality and its interplay with technological advances. Josh also gives his take on some uniquely American topics: the 6 branches of the military, gun control laws & the necessity of responsibility in combination with freedom.
We end the podcast with the story of his motivation to create a podcast, funnily enough through stand up comedy. This took us down the rabbit hole of overcoming shame/embarrassment and the different techniques and methods that are available for individuals. Josh finally gives some personal advice of lessons he has gained and the mistakes corrected from the first few episodes. It was a pleasure to talk to Josh and as always, we hope you enjoy, Mere Mortals out!

Pain is inevitable: suffering is optional. A quote popularised by Haruki Murakami is an old Buddhist saying and forms the basis of today's brief discussion to help everyone move forward. Another monday, another chance to sit within your mind or step outside of it and make things happen. Enjoy.

Where does the responsibility of doctors lie, to reduce short-term pain or to increase the probability of long-term rehabilitation? This is one of the questions Juan and Kyrin ponder in this themed episode of 'Pain'. There can be many types of physical pain (psychogenic, phantom, acute, chronic, etc.,) as well as the addition of emotional pain (i.e,. pain not caused by an unpleasant physical sensation conveyed by sensory neurons).
Some of the others topics we touch upon were: treating pain through bullshit methods (that actually work due to the placebo effect), the worst pain we personally have experienced, whether the world would be a better place with more or less pain and some mental techniques that can be used to take the emotional edge of pain. Pain is inevitable, suffering is optional.
