This week, we’re thrilled to welcome back David Ash, visionary physicist and prolific author, for a continued chat on the nature of energy, where quantum physics is heading, and more. David draws on his decades of thinking and experience, offering imaginative analogies and down-to-earth language make even some hard concepts in science very easy to understand! His many books include Myths in Modern Physics, Continuous Living in a Living Universe, and The Vortex Theory – A Bridge Between Ancient Yoga, and Modern Physics.
We also talk about David’s songwriting and are treated to a few glimpses ofhis brilliant new album, Balm for the Soul. David also talks about his newpodcast, The Open Way, which we thoroughly recommend subscribing to (see link below).
In our news feature, we look at the mental health crisis facing many military veterans in the US, and also turn our attention to tensions between China and the US following Taiwan’s Presidential election, the continuing war between Israel and Hamas following 100 days since Hamas launched its attack, and find out how one capital city is turning the curse of litter into a recycling opportunity.

Shared intention
This week, as we reflect on the disturbing poor state of mental health of many US veterans, we suggest holding the following intention:
We will that those who have influence within the United States Veterans Health Administration will be moved to recognise the opportunities for implementing co-ordinated treatment for patients who suffer both mental health and substance use disorders.
Please join us in holding this.
