    In Good Health: The Nation's Hydration Fixation

    In Good Health: The Nation's Hydration Fixation

    Everything is bigger in America. The portions, the cars, and now, our water bottles.

    Does it seem like everyone is carrying around a 30-ounce tumbler? The reusable water bottle industry is a multi-billion dollar business. But don't forget about plastics. The sales of single-use bottled water also continue to rise.

    We discuss how much of the hype around water is marketing versus science for the latest installment of In Good Health.

    Best Of: The Power Of Psychedelic Therapy For Members Of The Military

    Best Of: The Power Of Psychedelic Therapy For Members Of The Military

    Many people hear the term "psychedelics" and think of hippies, acid, and the music of the 1960s. But it may soon take on a whole different meaning for the U.S. military.

    Last December, Congress passed legislation that included funding for clinical trials of psychedelic-assisted therapy for active-duty service members. And just last month, the Department of Veterans Affairs announced that it will also begin funding psychedelic-assisted therapy to treat veterans with PTSD and depression.

    This comes at a time when suicide rates amongst active-duty service members are at an all-time high.

    We dive into what psychedelic-assisted therapy is and the effect it could have on active-duty and veteran mental health.

    The News Roundup For March 22, 2024

    The News Roundup For March 22, 2024

    This week in news, presumptive Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump has to come up with $454 million in under a week. The bond is part of a ruling handed down by a New York court that found that Trump, his son, and his organization conspired to inflate the value of their assets. Trump has indicated that he is unable to pay.

    In news that seems somewhat overdue, the EPA has moved to ban the most common form of asbestos, which causes cancer and kills tens of thousands of Americans a year.

    Meanwhile overseas, despite warnings from U.S. President Joe Biden, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is renewing his vow to launch an attack on the city of Rafah, where many Palestinians fled for shelter from violence elsewhere in Gaza.

    In expected news, Russian President Vladimir Putin won reelection to his position in another sham election.

    And the U.S. is no longer one of the world's top-20 happiest countries according to the World Happiness Report, while Nordic countries, maintained their hold on the top spots.

    Best Of: Ask An Intimacy Coordinator

    When you look up the word "intimate" in the dictionary, there are a few definitions. They include things like warmth, private, sex, personal, and familiarity.

    Our "Ask A" series returns, this time to talk to intimacy coordinators about their work.

    Parts of Hollywood production teams have practiced parts of the role for years. But the job itself is still in its youth.

    We discuss what it takes to do this work and the impact it's had on workspaces so far.
